  • Awful real estate advice (just “buy 10 houses before 30!”).
  • Over-the-top positivity: “Live every day like it’s your birthday.”

    “That kind of positivity really pisses me off. Like, I'm annoyed.” – Hayley [47:26]

9. Am I The A**hole? (AITA) Blind React: Food-Hoarding Couples

[48:56–54:00]

• Case:
  Wife refuses to split last three cookies evenly, “has a rocky history around sharing food” with husband. Chat derides both as “fat” and food-obsessed.
• Analysis:
  Both hosts see the dynamic as a red flag for deeper issues; consensus is the wife is “in the wrong” and possibly displaying food-hoarding/binge-eating habits.

[B]

We love the scroll.

[A]

We love the scroll. But okay, so we're starting the scroll. In New York City, all eyes are on the Knicks, who haven't won the NBDA NBA championships in 73. My whole for you page, my whole timeline explore page. Every algorithm knows I'm a New Yorker. All I've been seeing is New Yorkers come together, dancing in the streets, celebrating. It's really great to see people say that. The city hasn't been this united since. Since just after 9 11. The Knicks haven't even won yet. So on Monday night, President Trump was at MSG for Game 3. He sat alongside his granddaughter Kai Trump. And here are just some of the highlights. He got booed by the audience. There he is saluting and everyone's booing. Classic New York. People are accusing him of sleeping through it. I don't know if he was sleeping. Do you think he was asleep?

[B]

No, he's just resting his eyes. It was probably a TV timeout anyway.

[A]

How late was it?

[B]

Late.

[A]

It was like a late.

[B]

Well, I mean, 8:30 start.

[A]

So, I mean, well, this is like

[B]

into like 11 o' clock by the time it was starting to wrap up.

[A]

All right, maybe it's past his bedtime.

[B]

Maybe Cardi B was performing and he was just taking a little cat nap prep for the second half.

[A]

Maybe. But anyway, I mean, liberals were all annoyed that President Trump was sleeping at the game. Or, you know, sleep. I'm using air quotes. Sleeping. I don't know if he's sleeping, resting his eyes, whatever. He looked, maybe he looked a little tired. Maybe he was just looking down.

[B]

It's like he's saving the whole free world from.

[A]

It's almost like, you know, he's got. Yeah, it's almost as if he's got the whole world, you know, on his back. But maybe he was just looking down. Like, if I'm looking down at my phone right now, does it look like I'm sleeping? If I shut, if I shut up,

[B]

it kind of looks like you're sleeping. Yes.

[A]

See, maybe he's just scrolling. That's all he was just scrolling on his phone. I'm sure he has a lot of emails to answer. I'm sure there are a lot. Can you imagine, like, how many unread text messages do you think that President Trump has?

[B]

I'd be shocked if he read any of them. Like, I feel like. You got it. That's a phone call, like Powerpuff Girl style, like on a special phone that nobody has a number for.

[A]

I almost think that he is so anal about checking everything that I think he's the kind of person that has no notifications. He checks everything.

[B]

I wonder if Dan would know. I'll ask him tomorrow morning. Yeah, I'll report back inside. Inside information.

[A]

But anyway, people were all upset and, you know, the Knicks lost. So this influencer whose bio says to spread negativity, she has a theory why they won 13 games straight and then they lose on the night he walks in. Coincidence. He. It's actually. It's poetic. It's amazing how predictable he is because he ruins every single fucking thing. Do you understand? Okay, so of course the knicks lose Game 3, and it's Trump's fault. Trump was in the. Trump was in the room. Therefore, that's why the Knicks loss. Everything is Trump's fault these days. Of course we know that. But I was reading through some of the comments and they said it was the 47th day since their last loss, too, which just seems biblical, kind of serendipitous or something. And other people said it's the bad energy. Coincidence? I think not. I'm not even a Knicks fan and I'm fuming. And then I saw another video. This woman said that because the. The President was going to be in attendance, there was extra security measures being put in place. Duh. And they weren't allowing any bags in the. The venue. So a lot of venues now, they do the clear bag thing, which I hate. I genuinely hate going to an event and having to wear a clear bag. Just as someone who has to make a clear bag match their outfit, they're always ugly. They're always. They never. It just looks like you're carrying a Ziploc around. I hate it. Like, just for fashion purposes, I'm just going to say I don't like bringing a clear bag, but I do it. I do it because I care about the safety and I follow the rules. Okay? So it's really not that big of a deal. But there was not even clear bags allowed in this venue with the President there. It was just, you know, the things in your pockets and that's it. I saw a video on TikTok and this girl was saying, you know, I'm so. I would be so mad if I had tickets. So this is a girl does not even going. She has no skin in the game. She's like, if I had tickets to the game three and I couldn't bring my lip combo. For people who don't know what a lip combo is, it's your I, your lip liner and your lip gloss or lipstick or something. She's like, if I couldn't bring my lip combo. I'd be so mad if I couldn't bring my lip combo because of the President. I'd be so mad.

[B]

She can put it in her pockets now.

[A]

Exactly. Like, they just. They try to blame every. It's Trump's. Trump is. Is at fault for everything.

[B]

I know.

[A]

Girl pockets combo. Yeah. No, it's. It's tough with these pockets here. You can't fit much in it. You can barely, barely fit a phone in there. I don't know why they do this to women. It's like you need a man with you to have man pockets.

[B]

Cargo pants, ladies.

[A]

Yeah, cargo pants. Anyway, the. You know the horror of not having your lip combo because of the President, but need I remind you that these people want President Trump dead. Tiktokers who hate President Trump call their videos anticipating the President's death, which we've covered on the show many a time because there are so many of them. They call them hope core. So seriously, there are. There are so many of them. They have a name for it now. It has become a trend. So here is more Hope core from the party of love and tolerance and acceptance. Listen, one day we're going to wake up and it's going to be the most beautiful day. Maybe it's raining, maybe it's snowing. Maybe it's the nastiest little day out there ever. But we're going to wake up and it's going to be the. The best day. Maybe our phone is blowing up. Maybe it's not yet. Maybe there are cars honking everywhere. Maybe people are screaming. Maybe people are blasting music. Maybe people are cheering. Maybe people are parading through the streets, dancing. Or maybe nobody's awake yet. Maybe it's so quiet and you check your phone and you see it. You see it, it's here. Or maybe it will be nighttime. Maybe you will be the only one awake. Maybe it will be two in the morning and you will see an announcement. You will hear something outside. There will be someone, something that alerts you. One day, one night, one evening, sitting around the dinner table and someone will suddenly sit up and say, oh, my God. Oh, my God. One day. One day. One day. And yeah, one day he will die. To anticipate it, though, puts you in another category of people. There is a special place in hell for you. Truly, if you are anticipating the death of anyone, it is beyond. I can't even really comprehend how hateful you have to be. And I was reading through some of the comments on this video and someone said, I smiled. Listening to this entire time, I felt so much joy and hope. Someone else said, and every single day that we get through is one day closer to that day even more crazy. I crafted a Ziploc baggie with all of my celebratory items that I keep in my purse so I can celebrate at any time. A kazoo with streamers on the end, two or three poppers, lots of glitter and glitter streamers. I created this little bag from someone's suggestions, and then I made up bags for my best friends and sent them their own celebration kits. The label on the outside says nothing more than when it happens celebratory kit. This person's not alone, of course, this person in the comments said. Someone else suggested it to me. She made a bag for herself. Then she made celebratory bags for all of her friends. And then I saw another comment. I I carry a little baggie with confetti and a label that says for when it happens. These people are insane.

[B]

That's psychotic behavior. 5 sure.

[A]

Like, could you imagine hating President Biden so much that you carried around a Ziploc bag of confetti waiting for him to die? I can't even. What? I can't even wrap my head around this. These are the people, by the way, that, like, claim to hate capitalism and they hate consumerism and all this stuff. And it's like you're caring.

[B]

And they hate Party City.

[A]

Yeah, and it's like they're going to Party City and they're creating celebratory when it Happens bags for all their friends. Like, what happened to. What happened to saving the environment? What's all this plastic in your back pocket? You're waiting. This is your waiting for President Trump to die bag in your back pocket. Insane. Someone else said, I have champagne permanently chilling in my fridge. I literally teared up thinking about the day we all get to celebrate collectively. Someone else said, I was gifted toilet paper with his face on it back in 2017. I still haven't used it to this day. I've been waiting for the day that comment had 10.2 thousand likes on it. Someone else said, this is manifestation. Not even American, but I know I'll be celebrating. I'm staying alive just for this reason. It's the only thing holding me together. So someone doesn't want to live anymore, but they're waiting for the day that President Trump dies. I mean, you got to find another reason to live. Waiting for someone else to die can't be your only reason to live. These people have genuinely Nothing to live for. That's very sad. That means they have no friends, they have no family that love them, they have no hobbies, they have no career, they have no loved ones. You have nothing to live for. You're. You're only hanging on to wait for President Trump to die. Get a fucking life. Like, honestly, you're a loser. Someone else said, what's taking so long? And then this comment I found odd just because I used to work in news, of course, I mean, still do, but in a different way. And someone said, I worked in news the day he had Covid. Like, it was fresh news that he had it. It was the best day working in news for my friends and I. That just goes to show, I mean, someone like that probably works at, I don't know, let me just guess. Cnn, msnbc.

[B]

We're both religious people. I would say, even if you're not religious, wishing that being happy can't be good for, like, just your universal, like, karma. There's no way mental health.

[A]

No, it's horrible. It's so negative. And why, I mean, why would you with wish death on someone? It's just really bizarre. And when this woman says that she worked in news and all of her friends who also worked in news were so happy that President Trump tested positive with COVID What like, these were the people, by the way, that were taking Covid very seriously. So they, again, they're anticipating someone dying brings them so much joy. And of course, he didn't die because we all live to. You know, most people who had Covid live to tell the tale. President Trump being one of them, myself being another one of them. I think I had Covid three times. If you're healthy, you know, if you're elderly or you have some comorbidities, sure. But for most healthy people, this is something that you get over. And again, you live to tell the tale. But I remember working in news when President Trump tested positive with COVID And this is just my personal aside, but we were work. We had to work 24 7. We were on call 24 7. There was no time off. You could put in for a day off. Like you could put in for paid time off, but you were working anyway. So I remember I took off a Friday. This. He tested positive on a Thursday. I remember this because I took off Friday and we had to sleep. I slept with my phone under my pillow on loud. Do I have brain cancer brewing? Probably. But we had to answer our phones in the middle of the night. Like, something could happen at all hours. In the night. And we were very competitive over at Fox. So I was a booker at the time. And if other, if there's breaking news, we all wanted to get the best guests on our show, even internally, like we were competing with each other. And our mentality was, if something happens at 2 in the morning, well, guess what, the Fox and Friends producers are already in the office. They're already up and they're already working. You have to be working before them and harder than them and earlier than them. So we were working at all times. So I remember I took off Friday. I had put in because I was going to the Poconos with my friends from college. We had rented an Airbnb, we were going to have a nice weekend. And Trump test positive for Covid. This was the one night that I didn't put my phone on loud because I remembered I was off the next day. So I was like, okay, let me actually sleep tonight. Something in me woke me up at like 1:15 in the morning. I looked down at my phone and I saw that I had a bajillion missed calls. And it was my boss at the time saying, call me, call me, call me, call me, call me. So I called her. This was like in the middle of the night. And my apartment in New York at the time was so small, I think it was like 690 square feet. And it was a studio. And my friend and I split it into a two bedroom. So we like my. I had a full bed, but it barely fit in the room. Anyway, so I was trying to answer my phone and talk to my boss, but I didn't wanna wake up my roommate who was sleeping like this close to me. So I called her and she said, president Trump just tested positive for Covid. You have to book every doctor before all the other bookers at Fox do. So it was my day off. And I remember getting up in the middle of the night and emailing and calling and texting, because you would call, text, and email everyone all at the same time because you figured, you know, if they think you're a crazy person, whatever. But sometimes people are on their email or sometimes people are on their phone and not there. So you just, just basically try to hit people on all angles, like call, text, email. So I was call, texting and emailing every doctor that I had in my phone that could talk about COVID and Trump and all that in the middle of the night. And then I went on vacation. But I did have to work. So anyway, that's my little story. So you Know other people in news, they were very excited that Trump could potentially die. And here I am working in the middle of the night because it was serious. So these people, though, you know, you think about the Hope core people who want President Trump to die, they're all crazy. They look possessed. There's something about them that looks very odd. I would say this girl, too, if you could. If you could pull her back up. I just want people to. If anyone. If any 90s babies are in the chat, this woman looks like she could play in the live action Wild Thornberries. If they ever do a live action Wild Thorn. Or that. Who is that? Pull up, Pulley. Pull up. Marianne Thornberry. Hold on. She looks like she could play. Does anyone know that? I'm putting this out to the chat. Does anyone know the Wild Thornberrys, or is this just me? I was born in 94, and I used to watch that show. It was definitely a 90s show. Ugh. I was looking this up last night. I'm very good at getting people's doppelgangers coming up with them. And when I saw this, I was like, that's not.

[B]

I think you win.

[A]

Yeah. Is that not her?

[B]

It's pretty accurate.

[A]

It's pretty accurate. Anyway, good for her. But I do think about it. You want President Trump to die so bad, and then what if JD Vance is gonna be president? And then what? There's Hope core videos about J.D. vance dying, and it's like. Like, what if. You know, they're just gonna hope that J.D. vance dies, and then they're gonna hope that Mike Johnson dies, and then Chuck Grassley and Marco Rubio and then Scott Besson and Pete Hegseth and so on and so on. Like, when does the fan. When does the hope core fantasy end? When every Republican ever dies. Good luck with that. Anyway, you know that meme where they say that white people have no culture, and people say that, like, wearing Snuggies and eating corn dogs is white culture.

[B]

Sounds like a blast.

[A]

This is. This next video is white culture. I can. I can assure you that the people behind this are white. Scientists have found yeast growing within the remains of a 5,000-year-old mummy in Europe. So naturally, they're using it to make sourdough bread. Scientists have been studying the mummy Utsi since he was discovered in 1991. For this latest research, they found ancient microbial life still active in the frozen body. He took three months to success. It took three months to successfully make the sourdough. And researchers called it, quote, very good. The team has not ruled out that they could use the ancient yeast to brew their own beer. Next. Great. Would anyone, would anyone eat 5000 year old yeast from the inside of a mummy in the form of sourdough bread or beer? I'm just going to throw that question out to the chat. You let me know. I asked Grok if it was safe to eat 5,000, 5,000 year old yeast straight from a mummy and Grok said no, that would be extremely unwise due to contamination and potential pathogens and the fact that mummies, even well preserved ones, aren't sterile. But given the, the context of OTC, the Iceman from the Alps, OTC is 5,300 years old. Actually so older than 5,000. And the, the, the way that they can eat that yeast is because these are scientists who know what they're doing apparently. Grok gave me an explanation, but just like the long story short of it, the tldr is that scientists apparently know what they're doing with sourdough. This isn't just giving it Susie Tradwife making sourdough, you know, this is they know what. They know what they're doing.

[B]

Did you see they're already making a movie about this?

[A]

No. What?

[B]

Check the screen.

[A]

I love scary movies. This looks good. Coming soon. Fermentation. And what does that say? Fermented in Curse Resident. She ate the evil. She ate the evil sourdough. Now she's haunted by a mummy with. So dumb. Ew, this is so scary. That would actually be a good movie. I think it's like Spider man, but

[B]

like, you find a mummy in the first thing is like, we should take a bite. Like, no, dog, it's over.

[A]

It's Spider man meets trad wife. Culture meets.

[B]

You said before the show, you're like, I wonder what the bad one was like, you know what? Barb's locked away somewhere because she turned into a mummy and we didn't know how to turn her back.

[A]

Right. So this is what they said. The scientists said that they, they described the result as, quote, very good after some trial and error. And I was saying before the show, what happened? What were the errors?

[B]

We lost Carl, but man, we really perfected it.

[A]

Trial and error. So you made some really bad sourdough with the 5,300 year old sourdough yeast from the mummy. And what happened to those? Did you taste it? It was bad. Did you taste it? Did you die? Did you taste it? Did you grow, you know, a third arm or something? Like what happened?

[B]

They don't say, you Made sourdough down here.

[A]

No, I've never made sourdough. I can't get behind some me taking care of a living thing in my fridge. They're like, that's the mental block for me. I would love to make my own bread, but I might start with like a focaccia where it's not. I don't have to keep something alive.

[B]

Yeah, the humidity's tough down here.

[A]

It's like a Tamagotchi in your fridge.

[B]

Yeah, yeah. Shouts out my mom. She's like, got it down to a science. And when I go home, it's like the best thing. Like hot sourdough with butter.

[A]

Like a lot of my friends, A lot of my friends make sourdough bread. One of my old co workers, she's a good friend of mine, she makes sourdough bread. She's got it down to a science. Chrissy Clark, who's been on my show, she's a friend of mine from Nashville. I'm sure a lot of you follow her on Instagram and stuff. She makes sourdough. Very good. I want to do it, I really do, but there's just something.

[B]

So does the office. Would love for you to make sourdough.

[A]

Well, maybe I'll. Maybe I'll get. Oh, I'll. In my free time, which I don't have. But yeah, Otsi is his name, this guy Otzi. And they've. Scientists have done this before, so they, you know, don't try this at home. But they did say that no major safety issues were reported for the site scientists who ate the bread, but it was done under strict lab conditions. So Grok says that it would be very unsafe and unwise for you to just eat, you know, 5,000 year old yeast straight from the Mummy. But if you know what you're doing, then maybe, if you get a good batch, if you get a bad batch, you know, all bets are off. Then you're. You're the star of the. What is the movie called?

[B]

The Mummy.

[A]

The Mummy? No, the movie. The fake movie that you made.

[B]

Oh, I'm so sorry.

[A]

You're going to be the star of the new movie, Live Action Sourdough with Haley. Some recipes should stay bare.

[B]

I had a lot of creativity till the name.

[A]

Seriously, that was really good. That was very good. Now I really want it. You should make that movie. I'm sure AI could make that movie in five seconds.

[B]

Not five, but yeah, pretty close.

[A]

We could, you know, but they said that, you know, scientists have done this before. They. They got yeast from Pottery Egypt, Ancient Egyptian pottery. And there was yeast in there and they took the yeast from the, I don't know, there were like holes in the pottery and yeast was growing in there and they were able to make bread and beer from it. So this is apparently a thing. And did anyone ask otc, you know, was this like in his was this is like final wish to be made.

[B]

I got to put that, got to put that in my final will also, if unburied, go ahead and make me a rye.

[A]

If. And just indefinitely, like in 6,000 years, if you pull up my body somehow. Please don't make anything out of it. Please don't eat me. Please don't, please don't make bread out of me. Don't make beer out of me.

[B]

Actually beer's kind of fun.

[A]

Yeah. I was going to say if anything you can make pour a little out

[B]

before you drink it. And I'm in.

[A]

Yeah. Yeah. Anyway, this woman, she's not, she's not really as old as Otzi, but she is getting there. And someone in her family asked her, you know, how much she thinks gas costs and the answer almost took her breath away. Watch.

[B]

Question. How much you think it costs to, to fill up your gas tank?

[A]

To fill up with gas? How much you think it costs? $20.

[B]

No, you want to know how much are you sitting down?

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Over $60.

[A]

What? She's in disbelief.

[B]

That's my reaction. Most times I fill up anyway.

[A]

Me too, me too. And my, when I first got my car, I told you this, that I, when I was budgeting because I hadn't, I haven't hadn't driven a car in like almost a decade and I didn't know how much gas cost. But I totally bought into like the fear mongering of the news because I just thought, you know, Biden's price hike, you know, all this stuff, I'm like, the gas is going to be astronomical. So I budgeted like 400amonth for gas. Just thinking that like that's like the as bad as it could be. Right.

[B]

That's up there with this bad. I had some, I've had a long commute before and I just switched to electric because gas was too crazy.

[A]

Yeah. I would say when I first got my car and I moved here like a year ago, I was paying like 35, 40 bucks for a gal, a full tank and now it's 50, 53. Like we're, it's definitely.

[B]

I have the same car I had like in high school. It's like a newer model. My Just so happened that. But it's doubled. Completely doubled.

[A]

Yeah. So now instead of $100 a month, I'm spending like $120 a month on gas.

[B]

Shouts out Costco gas. Best gas around.

[A]

I should. We're going to take a trip to Costco. We're going to take the show on the road to Costco. Down the road.

[B]

Yeah, we're planning it. For those of you who doubt us, I see you in the chat doubting

[A]

we are going to go. You know, sometimes we talk about trips on the show that don't make it out of the group chat, but it's going to make it out of the chat this time. We're going to go to Costco and we're going to vlog it for everyone. Can we. Can we play this video again?

[B]

Absolutely. Question. How much you think it costs to fill up your gas tank?

[A]

To fill up with gas?

[B]

How much do you think it costs?

[A]

$20.

[B]

No, you want to know how much Are you sitting down?

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Over $60.

[A]

What? What? She's so cute. Anyway, the comments were cracking me up. Every nap is a gamble. That's Eve. Is she interested in running for office? Which is always a great comment. Like, anytime there's an elderly person doing anything, the comments are always like, has she ever thought about running for president? Has she ever thought about running for office? You know, and you don't even have to worry about term limits. You know, someone said, please don't tell her the price of anything else. We almost lost her for her first paycheck was a pack of salt health bar. Dropped from 3% to 2%. She bought her first car for 60 bucks. Christ. That shout costed her a few days. She invented the oldest trick in the book. And you unriggered her mortise by telling her that price. Oh, poor woman. Anyway, speaking of recession indicators, this person, they decided to put a gallon of milk on the top of their car and see how people would react, to see if people would stop them, would help them. And everyone helped watch. Milk on top of car. This is a custom car. You got milk on the top of your car. Car. All right, one person, you get your milk on Elk. Two people, you milk your milks on your car. On top of your car. Hey, you got milk on your roof. Of course. Hey, you got milk on your roof. You guys know you got milk on your roof.

[B]

You don't care the milk on your roof.

[A]

Your milk is on top of your roof. Your milk is on top of your roof. On top of your car. What got Milk the top.

[B]

You're. Sorry.

[A]

Stop, Stop.

[B]

Want your milk?

[A]

Milk. Oh, man.

[B]

The milk on the top.

[A]

Don't we all. The milk on top. 13. Oh, you have milk up there, right? Have milk up top, right. You got milk on the top. You have milk up top. 17 people stopped him to tell him that he has milk. That. Where do you think this took place? It's got to be in the South.

[B]

Yeah. I was about to say anywhere in the South. It could potentially be down the street. Costco's so nice.

[A]

Really?

[B]

Costco's great.

[A]

This, I think, is a recession indicator.

[B]

Explain.

[A]

Milk is expensive. Nobody wants to see someone drive off with a gallon of milk on the top of their car. Milk is expensive these days. Everything is expensive. It's like, that's. People are. The people who are stopping him are thinking this is wasted product, and nobody wants him to do that. Don't you think. Or do you think that this is just happening in the south and everyone is very nice?

[B]

I think everybody's very nice. And nobody wants to see you explode milk all over your car.

[A]

Yeah. Someone in the chat said, definitely not NYC or Philly. And then. Good point. Someone said that one dude said rough instead of roof. Maybe this was in Massachusetts, Boston area. Rough.

[B]

That's a good.

[A]

They say rough. Good. You know, these are detective skills. Absolutely. Inferencing skills in the chat. Love to see it. Love to see it. Someone said, no, that's a terrible analysis. Okay. Okay. Just neighborly people. It's all expensive. Wyoming. I don't know. Good to see. Anyway, this dog is smarter than its owner, and the local police officers know it too. Watch. Cops trying to get through. Good boy. The cops say, which I. I liked this. You know, I. I am one to put my AirPods in and kind of zone out the world, but if you're in a parking lot, if you're walking somewhere where there's other. You got to stay alert. You know, you got to stay alert. You can't be. Can't be walking around and not. You're not looking behind you. You got to. You got to just. If you have your AirPods in and you're really zoning everyone out, you got to at least look behind you every once in a while and make sure that no one's trying to get by. That. No. That no cars shouldn't be on. Right. Yeah. It's like, come on. Situational. Situational awareness. And the cop said, the dog has more situational awareness than you. It's not wrong. Good boy. And these people aren't Very smart either. If there was ever a case to open the schools and burn the Department of Education to the ground. Figuratively, this is one of them.

[B]

Read the index card.

[A]

The dogs. Unwatering loyalty. I don't know that word. Not even a lie. A lot of big words. I mean emotional. Depending. Dependency. Sorry. What's funny? Nothing. You're doing good. Okay. I can't

[B]

read the index card. The animals. Yeah. Bring closer. I can't read President Affection reflected and deeply ingredient diver the viral resilience Read the index card.

[A]

Her image. Oh, my God. Meticulously constructed that sustained out west. Am I thinking too hard? I West Bridge admiration Her image Meticulously constructed to abstain I Westbridge admiration.

[B]

Read the index card.

[A]

The D had a promotion. What the primo notion of the impending what the catastomic event has to listen be. I'm speechless. The one girl said, am I thinking too hard? Girl? Not enough. Not nearly enough. But I don't think she had it in her, you know, like, I don't think thinking harder would have helped.

[B]

As a poor reader myself, that's a tough watch. That's tough.

[A]

You're. You're a poor reader, but you can read those words, I'm assuming.

[B]

Indeed.

[A]

Yeah. That's bad. And this guy does this a lot. I was tempted to grab more videos because it's just. It's very scary. It's alarming. It's concerning to see how many people are this dumb. But they're a voting age, you know, they vote. These people vote.

[B]

And it counts just as much as yours.

[A]

I know, I know. And that's very hard. You know, it's one of these things people call me like a grammar police. Grammar Nazi, whatever. And someone. This actually happened and it was hilarious. I corrected someone's grammar on X and then someone thought that they were going to own me and they said at Grok read through all of Haley Karenia's tweets and find all of the grammatical errors. And Grok said, there are none. Boom. Yeah, so that was amazing. Someone tried to Grok own me and they couldn't. But people say that I'm a grammar Nazi. I have a good friend of mine that I have in mind. And we used to be roommates and I used to tell her all the time she would always use the wrong form of your whenever it was supposed to be you are. She would do, yo, you are. And I would always try to not to be annoying, but I would always try to correct her because she worked at a big bank, you know, she Had a good job. And I'm thinking, if you are texting this way with me, certainly you were typing that way in emails to your colleagues at this big old bank. And you've got this prestigious job, and I would judge you if I was receiving an email with incorrect grammar from you at this big old bank at your big job. So, yeah, I want to help people. It's not to be annoying, but people should want to learn. But I feel like people nowadays, it's like they assume that they know everything and they know it all and they don't want to learn. And these people, like, how do you get to this point? How did these people graduate high school?

[B]

I think that's kind of like when we hear about, you know, the lowering of the standards, it's just like, you know, you want to get people out of there and that, you know, they.

[A]

I think they care more about the graduation rates than they do the proficiency levels where teachers don't want to seem like failures. They want to make sure that, you know, the graduating class is. They're all getting out and no one is held back and whatnot. But you got to fail people. If they don't know how to read you, you just. You can't. You can't do that. We can't have a society if no one can read. These people are supposed to go out and these people are old, they're in their 20s, they're working somewhere.

[B]

Functioning adults for sure they're working somewhere.

[A]

And it begs the question, I mean, where, who hired them? Where did they go to school? Did they go to college? Did they just get by there too? Why are we. Why are we lowering any standards for anyone? There needs to be. We need to bring back merit based everything. Merit based everything. Standards for everything. There's just no reason to let people buy for any reason at all there, whether it's race or gender or what. It's just, if you can't read you, you need to be a functioning member of society. I don't understand this. All right, let's go to this. This is funny. Everyone was saying that this should be a Sam Adams beer commercial.

[B]

Oh, that's perfect.

[A]

It's like a. This is a Super bowl commercial. I've ever seen one black bear. They always get. You gotta lock your cars. People don't lock their cars. And then they act shocked when the beer goes. The bear goes in there. Bears in the car. Everyone's laughing, but those claws are gonna rip up those seats.

[B]

But what do you do?

[A]

I hope you don't have anything. Too bad. Lock your car. Here it comes out with the Samuel Adams beer. The whole case. That's perfect. What is he gonna do with that beer?

[B]

He doesn't know you ever been to Gatlinburg. He's gonna pound the whole thing and go play putt putt and ride go karts.

[A]

So true. So true. All right. This is the catch of the day for this young boy. This is just very wholesome. Watch. This is a monster. What is he even on? It's like a. It's pulling your poo. Oh, my gosh. This is a 10 pound bass. I kid you not. Oh, my goodness. Can't even pull the fish out. What the heck? What the flipping. I'm going to cry. This is so big. Do you have it in there? Yeah, I think I'm going to cry. That's so cute. That is my. He's just sobbing, sobbing. Pulling the bass onto his little boat.

[B]

A true fisherman.

[A]

It's so cute. So that was the catch of the day. This is the fall of the day. Watch this. This woman jet skiing for. What is she doing? She's not jet skiing. She's on a surfboard. Wakeboarding. Grandmother dolphin. And my head hit the wall. But I had a friend. What are the odds, you know? The dolphin is the whole freaking ocean.

[B]

Usually pretty friendly animals. Majestic even.

[A]

People were saying that that had to be on purpose because dolphin has the whole ocean.

[B]

100 on purpose.

[A]

He totally knew what he was doing.

[B]

Hate crime.

[A]

All right. Hey there. I'm Paula Pan. I help people make the smartest money decisions possible. If you don't control your money, it controls you. You're not in control of your finances and you have of yourself to live the life that you want. You're not in control. You're like. Like, what is it that you actually want? Money should follow the dreams and goals. Because sometimes we make the dream and goal the money. And you've overworked yourself and you've exceeded what you've needed for the actual thing you want. Sometimes we forget, like, what's the actual thing you want? Afford anything. Follow and listen on your favorite platform. Let's get into some blind reactions. What do you have for me? Are these videos or we.

[B]

Yeah, we got some videos today, but we have a theme today. Haley. Not everyone deserves a podcast.

[A]

I agree.

[B]

And I'm going to show you a couple clips of some people who maybe do not deserve to have a podcast. Okay, so here's number one.

[A]

I want to have my tongue out more. But we live in a society where, like, that tongue is not appropriate to be out of your mouth. You know what I mean? Like, I do. I do. I mean, I'm looking at you. I'm like, you're right. Why? I don't know what my tongue looks like right now, but I don't care right now because I'm in a specific journey of like. Like, I want that release. There's something in my throat. So I'm currently in that. Where, like, I do feel very in tune now with my sound, and I'm okay with, like, all that, but I'm like, what? I still feel tension in my neck, and I'm like, what is that? And of course, I'm reminded of, like, Kali, the goddess, right? Her tongue always out. And I think there's something about that level of disruption. Right? Like, what's up? Like, yeah, go girl. What it. Like, what is even the podcast about?

[B]

Like, spiritual guidance, healing.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Putting your tongue out and feeling like Kali.

[A]

That's bizarre. Okay, so I agree that this is a podcast. Make podcast equipment more expensive.

[B]

Amen. All right, here's number two. Also believe water is a scam. Yeah. I mean, water's a solvent, so it's dissolving your body. The fact that people say it's hydrating your cells is crap. It's not a carbohydrate, it's not a fat, it's not a protein. Literally, a solvent. You put any type of material in water, it dissolves it. That's what it's doing to your body. And same thing with water weight. And you're drinking all this water and bloating. There's actually no benefit to it if you want to hydrate. You have fats, you have juices, you have something that your cells can actually utilize.

[A]

No water.

[B]

This guy's got kidney stones for days.

[A]

I was just going to say give it a go. Give it a go. Everybody who drinks water dies. Give it a go.

[B]

I appreciate the guy being like, yeah, man, you're nailing this.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

I really appreciate you coming on my podcast.

[A]

Yeah. Yeah. That's wild. That's like, maybe a guest that I wouldn't have on

[B]

anti Maha moment, if you will.

[A]

Yeah, that is an anti Maha moment. I think he should try it.

[B]

Water.

[A]

Go without water for a few days, a few weeks. Let me know how it goes. Let me know how it goes.

[B]

We'll be making sourdough out of him in no time.

[A]

Okay, next one. Heard that from a friend of mine. He said, don't love your job, job your love. So don't don't feel. I love that. Yeah. And when he said that to me, that hit me and I was like, my business is me jobbing my love, basically making my passion my job. Like my own business, my job. And he's like, don't love your job. And yeah, that hit me so hard and like, that's how I went about it. No, that's loving your job. That's not jobbing your love.

[B]

Don't love your job, job your love. Easy advice.

[A]

What does that even mean? But she was saying that jobbing her love was just her loving her job because she, she owns her own business.

[B]

She couldn't have been any more clear. Don't love your job, job your love.

[A]

I love it.

[B]

As long as your job.

[A]

As long as you sound like you know what you're talking about, as long as you sound like you know you're coming up with something profound, they just put it on a podcast.

[B]

You gotta have a yes man too. Somebody sitting across from you. Just be like, yeah, yes, yes, yes, yes.

[A]

You, you are onto something. Keep going. Someone in the chat said, this is your generation. Enjoy. No, I know I'm not enjoying it. I just. But yeah, I'm not proud of it. Is there any more?

[B]

I got, I got two more for you. 10 rental houses before you're 30 years old. If you can buy 10 rental houses before you're 30 and you own those 10 rental houses at the age of

[A]

7, 30 and you don't buy another

[B]

piece of real estate for the next 25 years when you're 55, more likely all of those properties are going to be paid for. If, let's just say you still have

[A]

a balance on all 10 because you

[B]

put them on 30 year notes, you can sell off more than likely two

[A]

or three and pay the rest off. So now you're sitting there with seven

[B]

homes paid for that you have tenants in and you have cash flow coming in every month. So think about that. If you literally had seven rental properties making you $2,000,000 a month, that's $14,000 a month. That's called financial freedom.

[A]

Just buy 10 houses before you're 30.

[B]

If you could just own 150, just Facebook market statues by the age of 15.

[A]

Someone said he's living in 2008. It's like before that, the confidence, even 2008, like, how could you buy 10 houses before you're 30?

[B]

I love my life, but sir, if I had 10 rental homes before the age of 30, things might be slightly different.

[A]

Why don't you Just call Taylor up. You know that, like, TikTok sound?

[B]

Call her up.

[A]

Like, why don't you just call Taylor Swift up? Just let her know. Yeah, just. Why don't you just buy 10 houses before you're 30? Yeah.

[B]

Think of financial freedom you'd have.

[A]

I would have financial freedom, but you have to have enough money to get there.

[B]

I don't know who to believe. Do I believe Dave Ramsey who says, don't buy anything, or this guy who says.

[A]

Is he saying that now?

[B]

No.

[A]

Oh. I was like, really? That doesn't sound like him.

[B]

Spend wisely is kind of the Dave Ramsey motto, I suppose. All right, here's your last one and my personal favorite, I think.

[A]

Live every day like it's your birthday. This is the number one hack to shining the highest in every day of your life. If you live every day like it's your birthday, you are celebrated. It's about treating yourself. It's about spoiling yourself. It's about being the person that you are. Every day you're reborn again. Every day is a fresh moment. Every day is another second that you can change your life. You wake up with a fresh start. You can go for what you love, you can go for what your dreams are, and you can really be your true self. Live every day like you're reborn. And live every day like it's your birthday because you're invited to mine. I wouldn't call myself a negative person, but that kind of positivity really pisses me off. Like, I'm annoyed.

[B]

The best part of that video is there's, like, a very tiny bit of it that's kind of like, you go, girl. You're so right.

[A]

Treat yourself.

[B]

That's such a great mindset.

[A]

That's like, treat yourself came from Parks and Rec. Right. Wasn't that.

[B]

I haven't seen Parks and Rec. Fun fact.

[A]

This is coming from me, who has never seen anything.

[B]

Oh, I'm very aware you have to

[A]

watch Parks and Rec. It's hilarious.

[B]

If it makes you feel any better, I watched the first episode two nights ago.

[A]

Oh, okay.

[B]

So we're starting because you talked about

[A]

how you have the Office as a comfort show that you've watched however many times.

[B]

Correct.

[A]

Parks and Rec is like that.

[B]

I got the vibe.

[A]

It's so funny too. Oh, it's so good. Wow. I. I've been getting a lot of recommendations to watch tv, which I don't have time to do, but I. I started Paradise a few weeks ago, and I. Yeah, Yeah. I watched, like, two or three episodes, and I haven't watched since. And then my friends are telling me to watch off campus, which is apparently like a some teeny bopper dumb show, which I don't have time for.

[B]

Yeah, I've heard mixed reviews on it.

[A]

Yeah, I think it's teeny bopper garbage, but whatever. All right, you have an am I the a hole? Segment, right? I do, and I'm blind reacting. Andrew said, do you want to. Do you want to hear the situation first? I said, no, just give it to me live.

[B]

All right, so this was. This was online and I'm gonna read it. So it's a little long, but here we go. My husband and I make toll house cookies almost every night. What shouts out to them.

[A]

I'm taking notes so I can come up with like a good.

[B]

I usually have one more cookie than him because I have more of a sweet tooth. He also does a lot of snacking during the day, whereas I do not tonight. I started making the cookies and turned the oven on. There were three left. I wanted to have two as I usually do. As soon as he realized I was preheating the oven, he said, how many are left? And I said three. He said, how many are you going to have? And I held up my fingers for two. Before I left the room, he said, can I have one and a half? I felt very annoyed because we have a rocky history around sharing food. I really do not like to share food with him. Since the beginning of our relationship, he would ask, can I try? Before I could even take a bite of what I ordered. If I slowed my pace down, he would move in and try my food or ask if I was done and start to rub me the wrong way. To be honest, I do not like to share food at all. But I felt like it was a greedy thing to say no. Finally I asked.

[A]

Sorry, I just have to read the chat. Gross. Yep, they're fat. Fat ass. My 600 pound life. Fatty fat, fat.

[B]

Okay. Finally I asked that he please let me be the one to offer to share rather than be so quick to ask for my food. And I even went as far as explicitly, she's not gonna offer to share when is explicitly.

[A]

Wait, read that sentence again.

[B]

Finally, I asked that he please let me be the one to offer to share rather than be so quick to

[A]

ask for it never happen.

[B]

And I even went as far to explicitly ask, please do not ask me to share my food and just give me the chance to eat how much I want before offering it to you. But he often would not respect this boundary. And would still accuse me of being protective, territorial with food. Now that we are in therapy and learning how much assertively have boundaries, I feel more comfortable saying my preference. All right, here's the last, last bit. When the cookies were done, I said, so I'm going to have the two cookies that I plan to have. And he became very upset that I would not split the cookies evenly. It almost like did not compute that I was saying no. He kept saying, this is crazy, this is crazy. I then became angry at his reaction because of my baggage around him being entitled to food that I wanted to enjoy myself. He also literally just that day, finished a mega sized box of cereal that I brought home and only got to enjoy once.

[A]

Someone in the chat said, damn, that's a big bitch.

[B]

Is it okay for me to say no when it's technically our share of food, or do I need to work on sharing? My personal feeling is at this point, I know myself, I know that I don't like to share food and I don't want to be asked. If he sees me making a snack for myself, my love language would be for him to let me do it in peace. Odd love language with zero commentary or requests from him. In this case, it is our ritual to have them together. So it's a bit different. But if the roles were reversed, I probably wouldn't be thrilled. But I feel that the context does matter. And he often, he is often snacking to the point where I sometimes don't get to enjoy the things I bring home for myself. Who's in the wrong?

[A]

Everyone in the chat is saying that they're on Snap. The cookies were bought on Snap. Who's the asshole? This fat lady who, like, she has a really uncomfortable relationship and unhealthy relationship.

[B]

Sounds like it's more than the food in this situation.

[A]

She's like food hoarding at this point. This is like a binge eating disorder.

[B]

I don't know.

[A]

Medical.

[B]

Have you, you said you had roommates and you had a lot of roommates? Yeah.

[A]

Yeah. So I would eat our own food.

[B]

That's usually how roommates go. But there's always the one time you're like, oh, we'll have communal snacks like at an office where it's like, hey, here's the snack room. And then there's some person that just like goes crazy.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

So maybe feels like you share half a cookie.

[A]

100%. You should eat a cookie and a half each is the way to go. It should be very easy to share with your husband. Their husband and Wife or boyfriend and girlfriend.

[B]

Seems like they're just in a relate. My husband, they're married.

[A]

Like, and in therapy, you can't share. You've become one and now you can't share. You can't have the same amount of cookies. She's.

[B]

Here's the, here's.

[A]

You're supposed to be able to sacrifice for your spouse. And this is not a sacrifice.

[B]

I'm no, I'm no expert. Like, don't get me wrong, but she's drawing on a lot of different situations than the cookie. Like, if she has a problem with him wanting to try her food, like, okay, that's like its own entity, but that's also weird. Try to try. Are you a food tryer?

[A]

Yeah. If someone said, hey, could I try a bite of that? Like, yes, why not?

[B]

I'm a food denote. People say, do you want a bite of this? And I say, no, because I, I ordered what I want. Like, you're welcome to try some of mine, but I don't want to try yours.

[A]

Yeah. And that's fine.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

But I don't mind. Like, if someone says, hey, can I have a bite of yours? Yeah. What. What's one bite gonna do?

[B]

Apparently this guy is taking mammoth bites is what I envision. Just like the punk who's like, kind of a bite of your candy bar.

[A]

And I can't get behind the fact that they're eating Toll House cookies every single night.

[B]

Like, these are my dream.

[A]

No, no, these people, they have issues with food.

[B]

I have to eat both of them. The sugar free sweet Lauren so I don't gain £10,000. I would love to eat Toll House cookies every night.

[A]

Now this is. They've got to work on a lot of different things in their relationship. This is not normal.

[B]

All right, so what's your definitive answer? Who. Who's in the wrong? The girl who won't share or the guy who apparently eats everything like he's the vacuum in Teletubbies?

[A]

I think most men are like that. So you have to assume that your husband is going to eat more food than you are.

[B]

You ever had snacks from a significant other?

[A]

Have I ever had snacks from it? No.

[B]

Jasmine's in the other room. I think. I think Jasmine. I need Jasmine's opinion on if she's ever hidden snacks from her husband.

[A]

Is Jasmine still in the chat? Maybe. Jasmine respond in the chat if you have to hide snacks. I don't think so. I think a massive betrayal is when you, you put something in the fridge, something half eaten in the fridge. You're thinking about how excited you are to finish it, and then someone else in the house eats it before you do. That's like.

[B]

That's diabolical.

[A]

Like, I really. And you should ask before eating someone else's food. But this is really. This is a husband and wife. This should be shared food. And they obviously can't share with each other, which is a huge red flag on both of their parts. Well, no, he can share. I think they're both being disrespectful, but the woman is in the wrong 100%. My definitive answer is that she's a fat.

[B]

Like, it is mildly bogus to ask for a bite before she's had a bite.

[A]

Do you hide snacks from. From James? Jasmine says.

[B]

Jasmine just walked in the studio and Jasmine said yes.

[A]

Oreos. She hides Oreos from James. James, if you're watching, start looking. There's Oreos somewhere. Go look for them. It's like an Easter egg hunt.

[B]

They're in the house and it's your.

[A]

They're somewhere. They're somewhere in there. That's so funny. I love Oreos too. Um, no, I. I like sharing, and maybe that's rare for an only child. I have no issue with sharing at all. I actually prefer sharing because I think I never really got the opportunity to share when I was younger. I love sharing with my friends. When I got to live with all my friends in college and post college, like, if anyone wanted to borrow my clothes, like, I was like, yes. Like, I can't wait to share because I never really got to do it. It was like sisters that I never had. So I love. I don't mind sharing at all.

[B]

Yeah, I don't really either, especially as an adult. Like, I can just go get more food. So, like, the food things kind of

[A]

like, that's another thing too. Like, buy more.

[B]

Like, maybe your house is a two cereal box household, lady. Like, yeah, unless your fat husband's gonna eat all of it.

[A]

What was the consensus? This is on Reddit.

[B]

This was on Reddit. There's a lot of mixed.

[A]

Mixed.

[B]

Yeah. I mean, it's Reddit. There was a lot of, like, hey, she's crazy. Like, just let your husband have a bite of your food.

[A]

Someone in the chat said, haley, you're hilarious.

[B]

There wasn't anything prophetic, let's put it that way. It was very. It was pretty, pretty split. A lot of relationship food, sharing stories. Apparently that's a hot topic.

[A]

I went on a first date once. We got pizza and we split. No. What did we Do. I'm trying to think of. Oh, we both ordered a personal pie. Pizza pie. So he got a pizza, I got a pizza. And we were sharing like, oh, do you want a slice of mine? Do you want a slice of yours? Yeah, so whatever. At the end of the date though, he paid and then he took my pizza and his pizza to go and he took both of them. Don't you think that's a little weird? Like if you're paying for it, he's thinking, I paid for it, so it's mine. But I think when you pay for someone on a date, it's like you're paying for their meal. If they want to take home their meal that they ate, they should be able to do that.

[B]

What?

[A]

And I didn't care really either way. But I did think it was weird that he took both.

[B]

I didn't care. But I, I still think about it on a podcast every once in a while.

[A]

This is also the same guy. I went on two dates with him. I don't know why I went on another date after this, but did I, did I tell this story on the, on the show before of the guy who ate my meal when I went to wash my hands in the bathroom?

[B]

Excuse me.

[A]

This is the same guy. I think he had a problem with sharing food.

[B]

Yo. What?

[A]

Yeah, so I went on a date with this guy. Same guy again. Like, this was me when I was 22. What was I doing? I don't know. I've learned since then to not put up with anything. But we went on a date. We, this was actually wild. We went for drinks at like a Christmas pop up bar in New York City. Around Christmas a lot of bars are just pop ups and it's very Christmas themed. Whatever. We get Christmas drinks. And then he said, I made a reservation at this restaurant around the corner. I said, great. We showed up to the restaurant. It's boarded up. So there's no way that he made a reservation because the restaurant is no longer. So then we were walking around trying to find somewhere to eat. But at that point it was like 10:30pm we stumble upon this bar that was open. There was a xylophone band playing in the front.

[B]

Good sign.

[A]

We walked in and the waitress said, we're only serving breakfast. This is 10:30pm Xylophone band playing. I was like, is this a fever dream? Like, am I asleep? Anyway, we sat down, I ordered a breakfast burrito. He ordered like two eggs, bacon, something like that. And I. The food came to the table and I said, I'm Just gonna run to the bathroom to wash my hands. I came back. He ate my breakfast burrito.

[B]

The whole thing?

[A]

Yeah. Yep.

[B]

Haley, I know. He ate the whole thing?

[A]

Yes.

[B]

Was it big?

[A]

No.

[B]

How? Not to be. How long were you in the restroom for?

[A]

Not long. I just went. I just washed my hands.

[B]

That guy scarfed down a whole breakfast burrito while you were washing your hands?

[A]

Yep. And then I came back, and I just watched him eat his meal because I didn't want to, like, take bites of his, like, scrambled eggs, you know, Wait, time out. I know. I know.

[B]

My guy.

[A]

Yes.

[B]

I'm just gonna reiterate.

[A]

He ate my meal when I went to the bathroom.

[B]

He ate your meal and then proceeded to make you watch his victory meal?

[A]

Yes. Yes.

[B]

Is this guy in jail?

[A]

I don't know where he is now.

[B]

He's gotta be in prison.

[A]

I don't know.

[B]

That's crazy.

[A]

Yeah. No, I know.

[B]

Taking the pizza, like, I would get. I gave him the benefit of the doubt. That guy hearing this story, this guy 100% would. He was bummed you even had a piece.

[A]

I know. Then did I tell the story about the guy who had, like, 14 drinks on the date? See, that's different guy. Different guy. But he said, hey, do you want to meet for drinks tonight? It was a Monday night.

[B]

Meant drinks with a capital S. I said, sure.

[A]

And he said, I'm on my way back from a ski trip, but my friends can drop me off at the bar. I said, yeah, that's fine. He got to the bar before I did, and he was already maybe a drink or two deep at the bar. And I thought that that was, like, a little strange, but not too strange. Maybe he was waiting for me. Not long, but whatever. So then we went to another bar, and he got so hammered. I have a rule that I don't have more than two drinks on a date. There's no reason to have a third solid rule. And he. I counted 14, so I figured at

[B]

7, do you, like, make, like, a little comment like, oh, somebody's thirsty?

[A]

No, I didn't. And then I'm thinking we weren't on the date for that long. Like, he was pounding them because it's like, 14.

[B]

What was my guy drinking? Do you. I mean, I know that's a very minute detail.

[A]

I think it was, like, a Manhattan or something. Happy Pride, everyone. Happy Pride, everyone. So he was really. Someone in the chat said he. I'd be dead. So I think this was, like, a functioning alcoholic, because I don't know how you can drink this much on a Monday night or at all.

[B]

I'm like, yeah, I'm thinking through, like, that's great.

[A]

So we were there, you know, he ordered another drink, and I had had two drinks at this point, and he had 14. And I was like, I guess I'll have a third. You know, he doesn't really care about, like, money's not an option here.

[B]

Money's not an option. And he's not gonna remember me showing up or leaving.

[A]

Yeah. I was like, I might as well. You know, he's getting really drunk. I might as well have a third. So I had a third drink. And then he was explaining to me he got very drunk, of course. Then he was explaining to me that because his roommates. He came straight from a ski trip. And he was explaining to me that he had left his laundry and his sheets at the laundromat, and he left them on Friday before he left for the trip. And then he left the sheets at the Laundromat, so he didn't have any sheets. And he said, therefore, I have to come home and sleep with you. That was his line. And I got up and left. I didn't even say thank you. I didn't even answer. I got up. I got up from the table, and I left.

[B]

Swing and a miss there, Jen.

[A]

And I just was like, this is absolutely ridiculous. Like, you can't even. My friends are like, you should write a book about all of your horrible dates.

[B]

These are particularly terrible to say.

[A]

I know, I know. And my friends who are married are like, you should go on more dates. It's fun. I'm like, no, it isn't.

[B]

Yeah, I think I've said that to you before, and I rescind it. I'm so sorry.

[A]

Yeah, it's better.

[B]

Maybe not.

[A]

It's not fun. And then did I tell the story about the guy who is 40 years old? And he. The first thing he said to me when he sat down, he was running late. The first thing he said to me when he sat down was, I just want to let you know I have horrible table manners.

[B]

That's not a great start.

[A]

And he did.

[B]

I don't know if you met my brother. He. He's known for eating his date's food. And then my other brother, who has a drinking problem.

[A]

And then did I tell you about the guy who came to dinner and he had dirty fingernails?

[B]

Maybe he's a gardener.

[A]

He was a fisherman.

[B]

Okay.

[A]

But then I said, did you come from work? And he said, no, my boat's broken. I'm actually not working right now. So I was like, oh, so you're just dirty.

[B]

Well, maybe he's trying to fix the boat. Maybe.

[A]

I don't do dirty fingernails. So people ask me all the time, how are you single? Let me, let me tell ya.

[B]

Take notes, chat. No dirty fingernails.

[A]

Anyway, thanks for watching today.

[B]

That was incredible.

[A]

I will be back tomorrow with maybe more stories. We'll see how it goes. You can follow me on social media at Haley Karania and I'll see you tomorrow. Bye. Happy Pride, everyone. Happy Pride, everyone. Foreign. One night with Steiny. Shout out. Full send now. Hey, bro.

[B]

[A]

Sonny. What the hell?

[B]

We've been sitting here for like an hour together.

[A]

I don't know your name. What's your name? I can't guarantee anything. All I can guarantee is that you're going to be entertained. I'm a professional. I'm here to interview.

[B]

So the whole interview, you can ask me what I like better, BURGER King or McDonald's.

[A]
