Julie
Hi. Where are we supposed to look?
Julia
I honestly have no idea.
Julie
There, there. It's not like we're looking at each other much, huh?
Julia
No, we're just things.
Peyton
I don't want to use this angle.
Julia
Okay.
Peyton
Let's hate this side of my face.
Julia
Okay. So would you want to swap places? I'd much rather be on the edge.
Peyton
So I'm squished in between.
Julie
Okay, I'm giving you plenty.
Julia
Okay. Should we. We wanted to start this episode with a prayer to Shonda Rhymes. Ready? One, two, three. Thank you, Shonda, for everything you do for us. Stop, stop. Come on.
Peyton
We start so strong.
Julie
Okay, wait.
Julia
One more time. One more time. One more time.
Peyton
We were doing so.
Julia
Okay. Hey. Ready?
Julie
Hold on, hold on.
Julia
Good morning. Okay.
Julie
One, two, three.
Julia
Thank you, Shonda, for everything you do for us. We'll never take for granted. We can't laugh. We have to, like, be in church.
Julie
I have tears. I literally have tears.
Peyton
Okay.
Julia
One, two, three. Thank you, Shonda, for everything you do for us. We'll never take for granted the constant entertainment and the joy your work brings us. Your art unites us all, and we are eternally grateful in Scandal. We pray it's handled.
Peyton
Amen. Damn. Damn. That hit. I know it.
Julia
We are. You guys aren't rewatching Scandal anymore. I am.
Julie
The best part of that is it's handled. Amen. No, we're watching nine shows right now. We can't.
Julia
What are you watching?
Peyton
Oh, the summer I turn pretty. I hope Jenny Han you see this, I want you to know that you are everything to me and more. I literally want to hug you. I want to be your friend at all times, and that's that.
Julia
I don't.
Peyton
But if Belly doesn't end up with Conrad, like, it will be tears on sight.
Julia
Do you know how the book ends? Do you know how the book.
Peyton
Yeah, I do. I read it.
Julie
She marries Conrad, right?
Julia
They're like, it's hanging in our room. What?
Peyton
What's hanging?
Julia
What?
Julie
Who's hanging?
Julia
What did you read? Did you read the last sentence of the book? Yeah.
Julie
Is it the letter?
Julia
Yeah, she's. No, it's like. She's like, the photo. It's, like, hanging in our room.
Peyton
What photo?
Julia
What?
Julie
I don't know what the you're talking about.
Julia
Okay, so why was the last episode so bad? She lost.
Julie
It was a filler episode, and this was running around Paris with an away suitcase.
Peyton
It was an ad.
Julie
It was an ad. It was a minute. And honest to God, you know what? I'm gonna. I'm gonna bite my tongue here.
Julia
No.
Julie
Please unbite it.
Peyton
No, I lowkey. I'm super down for her Paris squad. Like, I want to hang out with them.
Julia
Did she have the Paris squad?
Peyton
Yeah, they were, like, at a rave with her suitcase.
Julie
And they were. And they were. And they were like, like me.
Julia
Yeah.
Julie
Yeah. They were just like, girl. It was all about, like, her finding herself.
Julia
She like, yeah, I literally just ended my engagement.
Peyton
Why was she on FaceTime with us on this?
Julie
She, by the way, so there's no money for the wedding, right. Because the parents don't support it. She goes, she gets her. Her dress, her wedding dress and cancels her wedding. Puts her, like. You know, like when people go, like, backpacking in Europe and they have those backpacks.
Peyton
Like a hiking pack. Yeah.
Julie
Like, for some reason, Belly has one at her wedding.
Peyton
And she puts the wedding dress in.
Julie
It, throws it into her backpack to go study for a semester abroad. Without being signed up for semester. She doesn't have a visa abroad when.
Julia
She lands in Paris. I saw on Twitt. She, like, calls Jeremiah and he's like, hey, girl. Like, what's up?
Julie
Yeah.
Peyton
And he's like, let's get back together maybe?
Julie
She's like, no. And he goes, okay, you. Bye. That's like, pretty much exactly what happened.
Julia
What my question is, like, I really would like to know, does Taylor give her songs to sing for free?
Peyton
Jenny Han wrote a letter.
Julia
She wrote a letter saying what you're.
Peyton
Saying are, like, would change to me. I listened to Fearless the whole time. I wrote the books. I'm obsessed with you.
Julie
And Jenny is like, number one swifty. Like, Jenny's putting Easter eggs in the show. Like, the show has its own Easter eggs and they're. By the way, I just got a full body kills.
Peyton
Genius.
Julia
What are the full. What are the Easter eggs like?
Peyton
There are hydrangeas in the front yard and they're blue for Jeremiah. And then when she's start coming back for Conrad, there's like a blue. There's a red hydrangea because Lean was red.
Julia
It's honestly kind of thick.
Julie
Yeah.
Peyton
And then like the night before her.
Julie
Wedding, every scene where she's like, having, like, doubts and, like, they put her in these positions. Like, she's just like, for some reason wearing red.
Peyton
And the night before her wedding, when she's, like, having, like, issues thinking about Conrad, she puts on a red bikini and goes swimming.
Julia
I remember that swimming scene. I actually did watch that. Where did Conrad go to college?
Julie
He went around and then transferred to Stanford.
Julia
Where'd Jeremiah Finch.
Peyton
And wanna know who else goes to Finch? Belly.
Julia
Wait, wait, I'm confused. Why did she ever leave Conrad? Like, what's the premise?
Julie
Okay, so he, like, he, like, is honestly, like, he's low key.
Peyton
Tears.
Julie
He's total tears.
Julia
Why?
Julie
Just like, he, he. He gives his love and then he takes it away.
Peyton
He's really, like, emotionally unavailable.
Julie
He's Super. And he doesn't, like, show or express his emotions, like, world's worst communicator pretty much.
Julia
Like, how, though.
Julie
Like, he just won't tell her how much he loves her. Like, she has. She's no idea, like, what he really feels for her. And he just, like, is kind of nasty.
Julia
I mean, like, he.
Peyton
For example, he bought her for her birthday, like, an infinity necklace, because it's supposed to be like, there's. Give it to her. And on her birthday, the family is sitting together, and they were like, everyone, give Belly your presents. And he goes, I forgot it was her birthday. And it's like he has the infinity necklace in his dresser drawer all wrapped up with a bow on it. Give her the necklace. You bought it for her. Give it to her.
Julia
Why?
Julie
Season one?
Julia
Yeah, maybe I should get into this. I just don't understand, like, I don't like when she. When she took an edible and danced till we can't be friends and played them on.
Peyton
That's your dream.
Julie
That was making a bond rod at it in her head while she was tripping on shrooms. It was so we can't be friends. Yeah, it was weed.
Julia
What was your favorite?
Julie
Okay, that was the best episode of the whole season.
Julia
Yeah. Oh, that was a good one. I saw a few clips of that.
Julie
Wait, no, it was. No, it was the next one. The one where they called the wedding off was the best episode.
Julia
And the mom's, like, so pumped.
Julie
It was just a show, honestly.
Peyton
And then Jeremiah starts bullying the mom and goes, laurel, I know you're happy. You never wanted this to happen. And Laurel was like, damn.
Julia
And then.
Julie
So, I mean, I think Susanna dies in season, like, pretty much two.
Peyton
Like, the first episode.
Julia
And how does she.
Julie
She's, like, already dead.
Peyton
She has cancer.
Julia
And did she find out she has cancer in season one?
Julie
Yeah, she had. It got. Was in remission, and then it came back, and she was like, I don't want to do treatment. Like, I'm just. It's my time.
Peyton
And she lied to everyone because she wanted everyone to have one final summer of peace.
Julia
Oh, wait. What? The show sounds amazing.
Julie
Yeah, I just got full body chills, if you're wondering. Just.
Julia
And that's why they always say it's what Susanna would have wanted.
Julie
It's what Suzanne.
Peyton
It's what Susan. That's been our. That's been our bit for at least two weeks. It's what Susanna would have wanted because, like, they use her as a scapegoat for everything. Is that the right word? Excuse.
Julia
Okay.
Julie
Yep.
Peyton
Next.
Julia
I think both of those work.
Julie
I think we can all agree that. Do you watch? Yeah, I just caught up last night and. What happened to Cleveland? Cleveland Erasure.
Julia
Well, how was your guys's double date the other night?
Peyton
Oh, I don't even think we should give him air time. I'm dead serious.
Julie
I agree.
Julia
Okay.
Julie
I know.
Julia
It's what.
Julie
It's what. It's what he would have wanted.
Julia
So you don't want to talk about the double date?
Julie
I mean, it was one of the worst nights ever.
Peyton
It was one of the worst Straight.
Julie
It was one of the worst nights ever. And like, respectfully, like, I think that me and Peyton could go on a date, a double date with two bricks. And have a good time.
Peyton
Me too. And we would change their life and rock their world.
Julie
Yeah. And like us in two pieces of cement. Best night ever.
Peyton
You know it's bad when we're sitting under the table.
Julie
It was tears.
Julia
Did you walk in? It was like straight tears right away.
Peyton
Yeah, baby, you know the answer.
Julia
I just got unseen sunscreen in my eye.
Julie
What super goop. How did it get in your eye? Like just now.
Julia
It's like gooping all over my face.
Peyton
Why are you wearing sunscreen?
Julia
Cuz we were supposed to do this on the terras until I found out the generator was going to overheat.
Peyton
You put on sunscreen to film outside?
Julia
Yes, of course.
Julie
Very good of you.
Julia
Thanks. I'm doing my skincare now, right?
Julie
You're in your. You're in your road era.
Julia
Why did you guys stop watching Scandal?
Julie
We have so much we're watching right now.
Julia
Have you seen Unknown Number yet?
Peyton
No, I wouldn't like that. No.
Julie
What is it?
Julia
Wait, what? Why?
Peyton
Just by the name. It sounds scary too.
Julia
Intense. You've never heard of Unknown Number? You've never.

Peyton
Oh, I loved Paradise. What are you watching other than Scandal.

Julia
Just let her in.
Julie
No, I need to, like, watch what she's doing.
Julia
Oh, the. Go to girls. Just go to mine. And I'm like, you go get them.
Julie
Because I like to, like, know where my things are. I don't want to, like, be confused.
Peyton
Yeah.
Julie
Oh, I. I'll, like, like, leave her for, like, a few hours and then, like, come back. She's supposed to come Thursday, but I probably need to reschedule.
Peyton
But we love it here. We were at the Box on Friday until the lights turned on, which is pretty dark.
Julia
It was 4:30am and I. By accidentally, you know, I took an Uber to the afters by accident, even though I wasn't going there.
Peyton
I did know that.
Julia
And then somehow I found Cassidy alone in the lobby of my hotel.
Peyton
Cass said that she was going to yours, but we had so much fun. Did you have fun this weekend?
Julia
So, yeah, but I feel dead. I've. Like, how do you do this every weekend?

Julie
I'm so tired. I'd love to take it out and.
Julia

Peyton
Probably I am snorting this episode.
Julia
It.
Julie
Every morning, I. Every morning, her alarm goes off.
Peyton
Like, am I just chronically congested? Like, I seriously.
Julie
We already addressed that.
Peyton
But it's like, am I like, do I have allergies? Maybe I'm pissed about my lack of sleep. Okay, we need to, like, further debrief our weekend. I feel like we did so much.
Julie
I got nothing to say.
Julia
She's literally. Literally wasn't there.
Julie
What? Why are you saying that?
Peyton
That's rude.
Julia
You weren't there.
Julie
I was not there for one night. Like an office. I don't exist.
Julia
Well, I don't know why you didn't come out Saturday.
Julie
I literally had plans. You couldn't.
Julia
Saturday was the best night ever. Saturday was better than Friday.
Julie
Okay, Saturday. I know you do things just to make me upset.
Julia
Well, no, I, I, I personally, for personal reasons, had a better Saturday.
Julie
So. So I guess you're wondering, what has it been like in New York?
Peyton
It is so fun. Sorry, maybe you didn't want to hear that.
Julia
Tell them how fun it's been.
Julie
It's been so much fun. We literally have not had a singular moment of without a plan, we're just pop, pop, pop, popping around.
Peyton
I saw a meme the other day and it was like me and my besties friendship bracelets and it was handcuffs. I was like, yeah. That is how I would describe our first three weeks in New York.
Julie
Yeah. We've just been.
Julia
Do you feel like you're in Sex in the City or Girls?
Julie
Neither. Honestly. I don't feel like I'm in either. Girls is a little too tears for our experience thus far. Sex in the City, we are being, like, way more of degenerates. So we're not. You don't even watch.
Peyton
But, yeah, we've been having a lot of fun.
Julia
I decide to watch an episode. Did you like it?
Peyton
We started Sex in the City and I loved it.
Julia
Did you really?
Julie
Yeah.
Julia
I can't get behind it.
Julie
Like, do you want to know something about you you hate fun.
Julia
No, I don't. I like so many television shows.
Julie
You don't. What is your favorite show of all time?
Julia
Dark.
Julie
Yeah. And it's like, literally a show from hell.
Julia
It's a show. It's a German show about a German boy that goes missing in a small German town.
Julie
What do you think we want to watch? The. The summer I turn pretty. Sex in the City or Dark.
Julia
Okay. What's your favorite sink from the summer I turn pretty? Your favorite needle drop.
Julie
I really, really. How did it end? Was pretty insane.
Peyton
How did it end? We had tears.
Julie
I literally love tears. Sorry, Jenny. That episode was bad. And when. How did it end? Came on. I was like.
Peyton
So how I feel like mine is probably. You're losing me. Because obviously it was, like, our favorite song ever. Also when they did it was just pretty crazy crazy.
Julie
False God was during the scene where, like, Belly got, like, the hots for him again.
Peyton
And False God was also in season one.
Julie
In season one, they, like, redid it for, like, when they first fell in love. Season one. I also thought Robin was really cute.
Julia
They did Robin.
Peyton
Oh, in the. With the glass unicorn. Yeah, that Was good.
Julia
What they do with Robin.
Julie
He got me my unicorn and he got me my mom.
Peyton
That episode, I think. That episode, I think, was my favorite.
Julie
It was. It was the best. Yeah, it was the best one.
Peyton
It was so good.
Julie
Don't marry him.
Peyton
That's what be with me longing for the whole season.
Julie
Don't marry him.
Julia
So you're watching Walter Brothers Summer Sex in the City.
Julie
We're watching.
Peyton
Well, we were talking about New York, too.
Julia
Oh, yeah. Like, what's been your favorite extracurricular you've done here?
Peyton
Oh, well, this was just, like, an example. But we went on, like, we went to dinner first week here, we went to dinner on a Tuesday, and we literally got, like, two spritzes and we ended up up at a bar until, like, three in the morning. And it was just so much fun on a Tuesday. And it's like, we had two spritzes, sat outside. It was so nice out. Like, it was just such a good vibe.
Julie
I've been getting so many steps. I've been getting, like, 17, 000 steps every day.
Julia
Oh, okay.
Peyton
So something about me is I hate walking. And I. I was like, okay, like, New York is gonna be bad for me because I literally hate walking. And for some reason, I find it so boring and, like, unenjoyable. But I've been loving it here.
Julia
Do you listen to music as you walk?
Peyton
Not even. Not even, like, sometimes if I'm alone. But I like to walk, like, with purpose. Like, with a destination.
Julia
Well, yeah, I hate walking without a destination.
Peyton
I feel like a lot of people love to, like, aimlessly walk. It's like, that's my worst nightmare.
Julia
That's my worst nightmare. I can't do that.
Peyton
So I've been loving getting steps in New York, which I like, because it's like, if you can't work out that day, like, you don't feel like you did nothing. It's like.
Julie
I mean, speaking of having worked out, I haven't done a lot of that.
Julia
I tried to work out today, and I, like, felt dead. I think it's because of all the drinking.
Julie
I'm so tired.
Julia
It must be the drinking. I'm, like, exhausted. I've done it every day for the past five days, Sam. Like, my eyes.
Peyton
I literally feel like we haven't slept since we moved.
Julie
We haven't. I've, like, got nothing.
Julia
I.
Julie
There's nothing in my head.
Julia
So how are you guys planning on decorating the main room?
Julie
Okay. Actually, thank you for bringing it up.
Julia
Of course.
Julie
So the TV actually takes up the entire wall.
Peyton
I accidentally, like, we measured it, and I think it's just, like, bigger than it.
Julia
That's fine. It's a big tv. You watch a lot of tv.
Peyton
Yeah.
Julie
So we're getting this really cool couch. It's like, we don't have a lot of space to work with at all, but we're getting, like, really cool. Like, corduroy.
Peyton
Are we getting that couch?
Julie
I mean, that's the plan.
Peyton
Yeah.
Julie
We can't get anything right now, baby.
Peyton
No. It's messy in there.
Julia
I mean, it's a fulfillment center, but.
Peyton
No, it's just.
Julie
We haven't unpacked yet.
Peyton
Couch is sick. You'll love it.
Julia
I'm excited.
Julie
And it, like, kind of unfolds. So, like, if you want to turn it into a sectional, like, you can unfold it. It's really cool. It comes in tons of really cool colors. A small coffee table and, like, some really fun rug. And then we're gonna make a coffee table, like, out of. We're gonna, like, DIY table out of magazine stacked next to the couch. It's really cool.
Peyton
Like, it's like, stacked up magazines, and we're gonna put glass over it.
Julie
I don't like how you genuinely couldn't be happy for us if you tried.
Julia
No.
Peyton
Why do you hate that?
Julia
I'm happy. I'm just like, what? How is that? Are you gonna glue them together?
Julie
No.
Peyton
What about that? Do you not like, are you gonna.
Julia
Glue the magazines together?
Peyton
No, it's like, stack it up and.
Julia
What if it falls? Can you grab me my water? Mama's thirsty. Should we close her eyes for two minutes?
Julie
Yeah.
Julia
Okay.
Julie
Like, kind of like this.
Peyton
You see?
Julia
Oh, those are books, Julia.
Julie
No, no, but, like, with magazines like this.
Julia
Okay, ready? Just.
Peyton
I'll set a one minute timer.
Julia
Okay.
Peyton
One minute, 30 seconds.
Julia
And everybody think of stuff to talk about as we close our eyes.
Julie
I'm gonna have nothing. My head is empty. Sorry. I haven't been holding my microphone.
Julia
Are you thinking?
Julie
Yeah, I'm trying.
Julia
Ugh, I want to sleep.
Julie
I have a funny story.
Julia
Oh, great. This was well worth it then.
Julie
Yeah.
Julia
What's the funny story about this date I went on? When?
Julie
A few weeks ago.
Peyton
Oh, wow.
Julia
What was so funny about it?
Julie
I almost predict I'll vomited because we were on a boat.
Julia
How'd you get on the boat?
Julie
So, like, he texted me that we'll go on a date in Tribeca, and he was like, okay. I picked this spot, Grand Banks.
Peyton
Oh, no one's sleeping anymore.
Julia
Wait, my eyes are Closed.
Julie
So should I wait?
Peyton
No, keep going. It's like a lullaby.
Julia
Yeah, honestly.
Peyton
And it's about boys, which is even better.
Julie
He was like, okay, so we'll go to this place. Grand Bank.
Julia
That's your alarm, Peyton.
Julie
What?
Peyton
Isn't that everyone's alarm?
Julia
No.
Peyton
What sound do you guys use?
Julia
That's your alarm. Mine is like the normal.
Julie
Yeah, that's mine.
Peyton
Keep telling the story.
Julia
So you. You went on a boat, and he almost projected and you almost protected.
Julie
All right, so I had dinner. A dinner before this date. I was like. Like I said, we have not had a minute to do anything. So I've been like, triple booking sometimes. Like, we had a dinner. We went to the corner store. And I was like, I'm not canceling this dinner. I really.
Peyton
It was just amazing.
Julia
What'd you guys get there? Louise and I went there.
Peyton
Pizza rolls, a French dip, Samoa sundae.
Julia
Samoa. Sunday.
Julie
Julia left before the ice cream, everything. Bagel, Caesar salad.
Peyton
Keep talking about the man.
Julie
Okay, so basically, I had this dinner at the corner store. I had like, two or three tomato martinis. So. I hate you.
Julia
Ew.
Peyton
I hate was good.
Julia
I don't like.
Julie
I don't like hanging out with you. I don't like telling you things. I don't like doing anything with you because you are just so negative.
Julia
Wait, I'm just confused. A tomato martini.
Julie
Were you at this restaurant or not?
Julia
Yes. What did they put? A sliced tomato.
Peyton
Their whole thing is special martinis. Mine was sour cream.
Julie
And on as much as I do.
Peyton
It came with sour cream and onion chips. Obviously not enough chips. There were only like, two.
Julie
What did you get? A Riesling.
Julia
Yeah, I think I probably tried.
Peyton
Yeah, and you probably fell you to sleep at the like.
Julie
I don't want your Riesling.
Julia
I. But, you know, my favorite martini in the city is at Santino's.
Julie
You don't.
Peyton
And, like.
Julia
And they have a truffle martini with caviar.
Peyton
Yeah.
Julie
And you're gonna go all crazy about my tomato martini. Meanwhile, you have fish eggs in yours.
Julia
Yeah, that sounds good.
Peyton
That's my worst nightmare. Continue.
Julie
On the boat, I had, like, three tomato martinis. I had pizza rolls with, like, ranch.
Peyton
I want ranch.
Julie
This is.
Peyton
You know how Benny Blanco gave Selena Gomez a bathtub of queso? I want a bathtub of ranch. So if my husband is listening or wants to come back on this at some point, I want a bathtub of ranch. Continue.
Julia
That would like your ph so bad.
Peyton
1,000%. Like, there is ranch in every crevice. Ranch Is up your ass. And like, I'm not mad.
Julia
What is ranch made out of?
Julie
I don't know.
Julia
God. We need to talk about something else. Okay. What?
Peyton
So Julia is selling the store.
Julie
Oh, I totally forgot. You don't let me speak.
Julia
Okay, co. Keep going.
Julie
So I.
Julia
Okay, go tell the story. You got a tomato martini.
Julie
It was just like a heavy meal, and so.
Peyton
And it got heavier after you left.
Julie
And so I like, definitely felt like a little like.
Julia
Like.
Peyton
I'm like a little creepy.
Julia
Were you farting?
Peyton
No, I wasn't farting, but, like, I.
Julie
Definitely was burping and like, I was just like. It was big meal. Like, I definitely, like, was not holding back. Like, I had. You know, like, sometimes when you go to like, a meal with like, a group, like an uneven amount of people, and there's like four pizza rolls, so it's like, no one needs the last. Like, I ate the last. Yeah, like, I was going for it.
Julia
Yeah.
Julie
I, like, didn't do too much research into this place before we got where before I went on this date. And. And so I'm like, pizza, rolls, martinis, etc, etc, like, I'm just not feeling great. I get in the car and I'm already like, a little bit. Like, I could totally lie down. And I get to the date and I knew it was on a boat, but I didn't like, fully, like, visualize that it was on a boat on the Hudson. So it smelled bad. And it's not like. Like, it's not like fish.
Julia
I don't mind that.
Peyton
Yeah, I do.
Julie
And it was windy. Like, it was like my dream. A particular.
Julia
My dream date. Cute.
Julie
A particularly a fishy, windy boat.
Julia
Amazing.
Julie
Being nauseous.
Julia
Well, I. I don't get nauseous on boats, but this isn't about me. Continue.
Julie
Okay, so we're sitting there and, like, I just, like, sometimes feel like on dates, like, I'm the one that's, like, leading the conversations usually just because, like, I feel like I could probably talk more than the average. Like, I. I'm bringing things up.
Peyton
Yeah, this story's long. Okay, I'll continue.
Julie
I'll shut up.
Peyton
I do want to hear.
Julie
No, we have nothing else to talk about.
Julia
No, I was about to, like. I mean, I was about to say when I woke up with someone in my room this morning, they said to me, you could keep frozen poultry in this room. It's so cold to do a lap.
Peyton
Yeah, that's nice.
Julie
Frozen poultry.
Peyton
And I would have hated if someone said that to me.
Julia
Yeah, really me up Honestly?
Peyton
Yeah.
Julie
Okay.
Peyton
So you're sitting on this boat also, despite all these horrible things like, we're saying about the location, it honestly sounds fun. And I kind of want to go back, like, maybe on a Saturday during the day.
Julia
So fun to me. Continue. So you're nauseous on the boat and.
Julie
It'S just like, rocking, rocking, rocking. And, like, I literally, like, I think I probably was, like, green in the face. Like, I think he was probably looking at me like, oh, fuck.
Peyton
Okay, so then you guys left and.
Julie
You went to, like, three other bars after that. Like, we had a really long day. I was, like, trying to leave and meet my friends, and he was kind of just like, no, I don't think.
Peyton
You should do that.
Julie
No, we had a good time. I. I enjoyed it. But, like, yeah, I was, like, pretty much nauseous for the rest of the day. Yeah, I haven't followed up for the second one that he asked me on, but why?
Julia
The best first date of my life Saturday.
Peyton
I loved him. I was there for part of it.
Julia
I'm sorry you met him last night, though. But I went on a first date Saturday and we got drinks and then we met up with Peyton and Cassidy at this restaurant called Lucien.
Peyton
And it was the best vibes ever.
Julia
The best vibes ever.
Peyton
I had 10 cosmos and it was in Jake. In this day, I've never seen Jake with a guy who. They seem, like, so into each other.
Julie
Like, sorry, I know I'm erased from your fudgeing memory, but I did meet him last night instead.
Peyton
You met him last night in a tasteful way. Like. Like they were holding on to each other. It was just, like, very sweet and wholesome.
Julia
Yeah.
Peyton
We also, this weekend, when we were in the Hamptons, Julia Mama got us a table at Surf Lodge. And it was so much fun, but we had to get, like, a million things of alcohol because there was, like, a table minimum. We have to hit this minimum. We're looking at the menu at Surf Lodge. Obviously, our first thought is, let's get 14 towers of chicken tenders. But we're like, we obviously also need to get all these bottles. We get a big bottle of Grey Goose, and the night is coming to an end. It's dwindling down. The big bottle of Grey Goose is still, like, half full, right?
Julia
You can't.
Peyton
Over my dead body were we leaving a half full bottle of Grey Goose at the club. It was like a giant bottle to be taken. So I put it in my pants and I leave. I leave. And I was carrying around this Gray Goose bottle the entire night picture for you to insert. The entire night. We go to the next location. Every single bar we went to after that, I would just order a chaser, and I would take the bottle out of my skirt and just take my own shot.
Julia
Wait, are you serious?
Peyton
Dead serious.
Julia
And no one caught you?
Julie
No.
Peyton
And then we're leaving the club or the. Wherever. Like, the bar we were at, and it dropped on the ground, and it was really funny.
Julia
Did he get shattered? What ice cream is that?
Julie
Oh, how good does that look? Oh, yeah, this froyo place in Long Island.
Julia
Okay, here. Does it make you guys sad that we don't know anybody at USC anymore?
Peyton
Yeah, it does.
Julia
Like, we don't know a single person in a single grade. I don't know anyone.
Peyton
It's really crazy because now we're like. We're, like, full.
Julie
I saw it the other day. That was like. Like, a girl. Like, these girls, like, drinking, like, in the morning for a football game at college.
Peyton
What college? Do you remember?
Julie
No, I was, like, half asleep, but.
Julia
I was just like, those were the best days ever. We'd wake up and just.
Julie
And like, a tailgate was like, all bets are off. You could act however you wanted. You could get however wasted you wanted. Like, you could do whatever you wanted, and then you just pass out.
Peyton
Yeah.
Julie
And you'd wake up and it'd be like.
Peyton
Have we ever talked about orange and teal, you guys on the podcast?
Julia
Yeah, we talked about orange until we.
Julie
We. Like, there was this, like, Snapchat filter when we were freshmen in college called Orange and Teal. God knows what we were doing.
Julia
Game day was just. What was your favorite? Oh, I think we only had game days. Really? I feel like only freshman, sophomore, and senior. Right. Because junior was Covid.
Peyton
What were you saying about college before.
Julia
Orange until that game days were the best day ever. And then when you would try to go out at night and, like, you'd kind of fail, but you would just, like, be at the party and, like, sweats at a game day T shirt. Oh, my God, I'm so tired. But, like, I have to go out.
Peyton
It would be. You'd be like, why do you think.
Julie
The 90 never hit for us?
Julia
It's because we can't wait in the line to save our lives.
Peyton
No, but I also think it's because, like, we were the only grade that truly had bandidos.
Julie
Yeah.
Julia
Also, we had second semester rush.
Peyton
Right.
Julia
So we never had to, like, if everyone had first semester rush right before everyone was going to mixers and stuff all the time.
Julie
We only have bandido.
Julia
We only have Bandidos. And respectfully, Bandidos was genuinely life changing. It was a playground.
Peyton
Like, it was the best place ever. And I feel like we already had that moment of being, like, obsessed with a bar. With a bar and, like knowing the bartender and doing. Knowing like, who ran it and everything. And like running the place to the ground. I feel like we had that moment already. So then the dino, it was just like.
Julia
Okay, do you remember when somebody fudged in the back room of Bandidos, posted it on her Instagram and said, who is this?
Julie
No.
Julia
You don't remember that?
Julie
No.
Peyton
Did that actually happen?
Julia
She was sucking his dick or something. Yes. And she posted like, if you fudge up banditos, like, oh, you'll get caught.
Peyton
But, like, I also low key feel like was down for you to fuck up any of those. Like, was actually.
Julia
Okay. You want to know something about Bandidos?
Peyton
What?
Julia
The food there was amazing.
Julie
Amazing. Yeah.
Peyton
Also, the tick tocks now of everyone in New north is just.
Julia
That's my thirteenth reason.
Peyton
Great, Jess.
Julia
That's my thirteenth reason.
Julie
I miss you, North.
Julia
Do you remember when Evan used to brush her teeth every night and she would gag on her toothbrush every night?
Julie
Yeah.
Julia
Payton had the best roommate in the world, Evan and J.
Peyton
Our room was just, like, so disgusting. And we would just do whatever we wanted. And one time we all got mad at Jake after this party and we ordered pizza and Jake, like, wanted to come, like, redeem himself after he had pissed off every single person. We were just making friends with and we ordered. We ordered a pizza, and Jake is banging on the door, being like, please let me in. We're like, fine. We open the door, Jake steps into the room, he puts his dirty air force right into the fresh pizza, and then steps on the carpet.
Julia
And it was there the entire year. You remember Peyton's fridge?
Peyton
An air Force. An air Force print of marinara sauce in my perfect carpet.
Julia
Wait, do you remember your fridge?
Julie
No. Your carpet was never perfect.
Peyton
You have the worst of all times. I didn't. I didn't even pick that out.
Julia
Okay, well, what about the candy carpet?
Julie
Yeah, that's what I'm talking about.
Peyton
Yep.
Julie
Pean's like me Pete and turned a room sophomore year. And she's like, perfect. I. I got us the best carpet in all. Target from the Target from the nursery section. It looked like a fun fetty bass match.
Peyton
And it was also the same, the.
Julie
Size of a bath mat. That's what I'M saying Funfetti bath mat. It was my mom and I walked in, and we were like.
Peyton
So then Julie and I ordered a neon pink carpet.
Julia
Do you remember what would you call her again? Clicker. Because she would go on the Roku.
Julie
Because I'm just, like, not good with technology.
Julia
You've gotten a lot better.
Julie
Yeah, I just, like, don't know how to work, like, anything, and so I'm, like, really bad with a remote control. Like, it takes me seven years to, like, type a letter in. And Peyton's just like, you were so quick with it.
Julia
It's crazy.
Peyton
You guys want to know what? We're gonna have to wait and watch together. What do you guys want to guess?
Julia
Okay. Can you give if. Will they give it away?
Julie
I have literally no idea.
Julia
Wait, no.
Peyton
There's a new movie coming out, and it's Hunger Games.
Julie
Yes. Yeah.
Julia
Oh, obviously. Oh, we'll have to wait to watch. Also, I'm about to finish Scandal. I think we should watch how to Get Away with Murder.
Peyton
We tried.
Julia
No, you did not try. If you tried, you would have been into it. It's really good.
Julie
Yeah, it's amazing.
Peyton
I tried and watched, like, at least five episodes, but I'm down to retry.
Julia
Dude. It's like, a less.
Julie
I've seen it, but, like, I don't really remember.
Julia
Apparently, it only gets better. Like, way better than season one. Like, season one's good, but the rest.
Julie
Of the show is, like, most shows are like that. Like, season one usually is not good.
Julia
Okay. Oh, my God. I need to talk about this. The one thing in Scandal, I think if Stephen would have stayed in the show, like, him and Olivia, like, he. I read. I read a comment on Tick Tock that was like, he is the only one that understood Olivia.
Julie
Yeah, true.
Julia
She, like, understood her on, like, a different level.
Julie
Like, true.
Julia
I'm gonna be sick.
Julie
I know.
Julia
You know? And he didn't leave on Bad Blood either. No, he left because they didn't think the show was gonna get renewed for season two. And he was like, well, I need to pursue other opportunities if the show is not getting renewed. Have you guys seen Teen Wolf? We tried.
Julie
We all tried to watch Dylan o'. Brien.
Julia
Yeah, it was great. I re watched the first episode the other day.
Julie
Are you guys normal, or do you also play that while watching Walking through the Street? Yeah, Smash.
Peyton
Julie and I were saying this the other day, and we started every single.
Julie
If we can't see their face, we say, s from the Beast. Match from the back.
Peyton
Yeah, that's from the big. Every single person I see, like, the first thing I think is smash pass.
Julia
Should we sit on the west side highway tomorrow? Well, not on the highway, but, like, play smash the park and play smash your pass.
Peyton
Yeah, I want to. And I want to. Yeah.
Julie
Is everyone as tired as me?
Julia
Yes. Exhausted.
Julie
Okay.
Julia
Okay. Do you want to get into the tell me what's wrongs?
Julie
Of course I do.
Peyton
I want to.
Julia
These tell me what's wrongs are sponsored by Bumble. Can you please talk about the transition into a new relationship after a breakup? Well, there's only one person here to answer that properly, and that is Julia.
Julie
No, listen, like, I don't know. I think that everyone has a different experience. Personally, for me, like, everyone that I've been dating since I broke up with my ex boyfriend, I'm super grateful for these experiences because I wanted them. Of course.
Julia
Yeah.
Julie
But, yeah, I think that it might, like, personally for me, I feel like it's just gonna, like, take a minute to, like, like someone again.
Peyton
But, like, that's why you were wanting to have a single moment, because it's like you were wanting to have fun and, like, just be single and, like, not be calling to anyone. And, like.
Julie
But I know that I'm the problem. See, like, that's why I'm not.
Julia
Can I be honest, though? I don't think you are in this first case because I think, remember the one person you were going on dates with and now.
Julie
Yeah.
Julia
And the reason you didn't go on a first date with him two years ago is because. Or three years ago is because, like, something like, fateful got in the way. Like, you literally fell down a flight of stairs. That was like a God telling you, like, do not see this man. I'm gonna push you down a flight of stairs.
Peyton
God pushed you.
Julia
He was like, I do not want you to see this man.
Julie
I just think that, like, after a breakup, you should really focus on yourself.
Peyton
It's like, fun, and it's like, you can do whatever the you want. You're wearing the pants. You have the power. And it's like, if you want to, like, end anything, you can.
Julie
Okay.
Julia
How do you find confidence in yourself to go on bumble dates? I get so scared to meet. Well, I feel like I'm the. I've been going on a lot of bumble dates recently, so I'll. I'll take this one if that's fine with guys.
Peyton
Please take it.
Julia
I went on, look, some dates are going to be horrible, and some dates are going to be amazing.
Julie
Going on a date is, like, the outcome is, like, one of, like, a very few things. A. A funny story, be a good experience. See, you met someone that you're gonna have a relationship with.
Peyton
Yeah. I will say Julia usually has, like, the best advice about going on a first date, because, like, I personally get so, so nervous. Like, even if it's a guy that I know, most likely I like, like, don't have a lot in common with or, like, I know that I, like, probably won't vibe with, or it's someone that I like, wasn't super interested from the dump.
Julie
We're gonna have a laugh about it later.
Julia
One time this guy Pop boxed his car with a vape.
Peyton
Yeah.
Julie
Yeah.
Peyton
It was super dark. And he opened his Dropbox and started playing me new music. And I said, hey, please take me home. That was not okay. Julia always encourages me and is, like, it's not that serious. It's so much fun. Like, just go. So I feel like you need to have someone in your corner who's just, like, hyping you up. And that's what you guys are reassuring you that it's, like, not that serious. Because, like, it isn't. Like, the stakes are low. Like, go on the date and, like, if it sucks, go home. Like, always have a scapegoat and all.
Julia
My scapegoat is always Cassidy. Always.
Peyton
Yeah, it is. And always make sure if it's a new person that you, like, aren't having a lot of mutuals with. Like, make sure your friends have your location.
Julia
Well, on Bumble, you can use the share my date feature. And if you're anxious, like, and if you're scared to go on the date, you can share, like, the time, location, okay, Everything. And you can send it to, like, your friends and family on Bumble and, like, share your date.
Julie
Cool.
Peyton
I feel like that's really important, and it honestly gives you, like, that security that, you know, like, your friends know where you are. Like, it's all good. It's all good.
Julia
Well, we prescribe denim on denim because even. Thank you. Because even my favorite. Even some of the worst dates make the best stories.
Peyton
Yeah.
Julia
A friend of mine is constantly talking about how she never gets any attention from men. Me, like, well, she always saying how she'll die alone or how she'll never get married, but she's gone on dates and is currently in some type of situationship and has many capitalized. Ooh. Oh, guys fawn over her, not me. It usually doesn't make me upset. But as of recently, I Found it makes me feel bad because I've never experienced any of that. And it's like she's tone deaf to how I feel. Almost as if she's blind to all the attention she gets. Moral of the story is, idk what to do anymore. Am I a bad friend for thinking she's being oblivious to my feelings or for even feeling any type of way about this? Wow. What an actual deep question.
Peyton
Wow. I love that question.
Julia
It should make you feel better that, like, even the people. Yeah, like, it should make you feel better that, like, attention from romantic partners does not validate any type of insecurity you harbor inside. Oh, thanks.
Peyton
A simple mic drop for that.
Julia
Thank you. I know. Well, because it's true. Because, like, I have gay friends that literally get fawned over by, like, yeah, a million and one guys. That doesn't change how they feel about themselves.
Julie
It's so true.
Julia
You know what I mean? Like, that doesn't change a thing. And I don't know. And like, like, not to. I. I don't know. Like, I. It's. I honestly, I'm gonna take the thing of, like. Like, maybe you just, like, let her be. Pick me. Because obviously she has some deeper demons going on. And like, that's. It's obviously like, not the men she's, like, primarily insecure about. She's probably just using it as a scapegoat for, like, other situations.
Peyton
Yeah.
Julia
And like, you respectfully can't project your insecurities onto her. I don't think that's fair.
Peyton
Yeah.
Julie
Whoa.
Peyton
You just ate that up.
Julia
I went on a date with the guy like, four years ago and he was super hot. He was a little eager and was talking about wanting to go on a road trip together later that summer.
Peyton
Yeah, etc.
Julie
Sounds like me.
Julia
But besides the date. But besides that. Oh, wait, it is you. Yeah, but besides that. The date was fun and I had a good time. He was a great kisser. However, afterwards, he pretty much ghosted me.
Julie
Oh, not me.
Julia
So he love bombed you? He was moving cities a few weeks later, but it was still pretty abrupt. Anyway, fast forward to today and I just saw him on Bumble. Should I message him or leave it in the past? I'm so tempted. I would not message him.
Peyton
I feel like he's giving, like, love bombing, like, bad vibes and it's like, you're probably better off without.
Julie
Yeah, I know. My ass would message him for sure. Right.
Julia
But it's interesting you would message him. I think it's interesting.
Peyton
I also, like probably wouldn't take my own advice. Like I'm telling you, like, I would message him. The universe is doing a greater thing for you.
Julie
Yeah, yeah. And shut up with that.
Peyton
And I'm messaging.
Julia
Hi, Jake. Hi, Jake and whatever amazing guest guests.
Peyton
Amazing we are.
Julie
When you miss, like when you don't land your jokes.
Julia
I don't want to talk about it. I need to restart this. Hi, Jake. Hi, Jake. And amazing guest is. What up? Hi Jake and whatever amazing guest is accompanying you today. Long time, first time puss sharing what's wrong? Recent college grad and recently back in the dating scene after a long hiatus. I met this guy. So great and so kind and respectful was the hiatus which gave me the ick at first, but I'm learning to like what's good for me, and I think I actually like this now. Man. Now he is only living where I am until the end of the month, and then he travels for work. I, I, I don't know if it makes sense to lock it down since we've been only going on dates for a month. What should I do?
Julie
These are all targeted at me.
Julia
Julia, honestly. Yeah, Julia had an expiration date with her first boyfriend, but it would made a lot more, more, less sense than this because he's moving states and she was moving to West Hollywood.
Peyton
My biggest question is, was the dating hiatus like, on your own accord?
Julie
I'll tell you, life is too short to not do things because they scare you. Yes. Like, I just have this, like, whole philosophy with dating that, like, it doesn't need to be, like, so planned out and, like, so, like, every little thing needs to, like, fall into line, like, the way you want it. It too. Like, I just think that we're so young and I don't know how old you are, but, like, I just think.
Julia
That there's no reason she's 22 or 23 because she's a recent college grad.
Julie
Oh, right.
Peyton
Context.
Julie
Thank you for that.
Julia
Yeah, I appreciate it.
Julie
Like, I was saying this to our friend's little sister the other day who's, like, kind of having, like, some troubles with this, like, boy. And I was like, I just, like, you're too young. Like, yeah, this probably isn't your man, but, like, life is about experiences. Life is about learning things. You learn a lot by the people you date. You learn a lot about yourself by way the, the people you date. So, like, so what if he isn't the world's most standup amazing guy? So what if he's moving? Like, let yourself experience things no matter if the outcome might be painful. Like, you don't need to protect yourself from everything. Like, sometimes you just need to dive into the.
Peyton
Enjoy the journey.
Julia
Also, then you can relate to sad music, which is what I've always wanted to relate to. The only song I'm relating now to is I think He Knows and delicate.
Julie
Yeah, delicate.
Julia
I'm so delicate. How good is it? Delicate.
Julie
It is the greatest song of all.
Julia
Time, honest to God.
Julie
Like, no one has ever encapsulated the feeling of.
Peyton
Of that, ever.
Julie
Besides, is it cool that I said all that?
Peyton
Is it chill?
Julia
Oh, my God. Is it cool that I said that?
Julie
Are you thinking of me?
Julia
But is it cool that, like, that I'm thinking of you? Like, everything you say. Like, I've never heard someone be. Like, everything. Everything you say, you're like.
Julie
I wish I felt that way about sometimes when you're.
Julia
When you're on a date and you're with. Like, you guys are on a friend and you hold hands under the table, it feels like you're the only people in the room. It's like, I seriously, like, yeah, I.
Julie
Don'T feel that way about anyone these days.
Peyton
I need a crush.
Julia
Honestly, having a crush, it's the best fit in the entire world. And when their name pops up on your phone, you're like, oh, my God. I don't need to jump if you.
Peyton
Don'T have a crush. Like, without a crush, I have no purpose.
Julie
I wish I had a crush on someone.
Julia
I think we should phone one of our guy friends for some guy advice.
Peyton
What guy friends?
Julia
Matt? Peyton.
Peyton
Hi, it's Peyton.
Julia
Hey, Peyton, it's Matt.
Julie
Hey, Matt.
Julia
Where's Shia? He's not here. He's sleeping.
Julie
Hi, Matt. It's Julia.
Julia
Hey, Julia.
Julie
Hey. Who is this?
Julia
How's New York life treating you guys?
Peyton
Well, we love it, but that's not why we called. We are actually filming therapists, and we keep it today, and we need some guy advice.
Julia
Okay. What's wrong? Being single in a group of friends who are often in. Who are all in relationships often means they're less likely to want to go to the bar. What do I do?
Julie
Oh, this one's for P. What do you.
Julia
What would you do?
Peyton
Matt, read that to me one more time because that's how hard this is for me. Yeah, being single in a group of friends who are in relationships often means they're less likely to want to go to the bar.
Julie
What do I do?
Peyton
I don't know why we called Matt because this is my own personal Hell.
Julia
Well, you know, I.
Peyton
You know, this is my worst nightmare.
Julia
I would say. I would prescribe calling Matt because Matt would.
Peyton
Answer Matt.
Julie
Because Matt would go to the bar.
Julia
Why not just, like, invite everybody out all at once? You know? Everybody can hang out together. You want to still go to the bar?
Peyton
You want all the boyfriends at the bar?
Julia
I don't. I mean, I guess, yeah. Why not? That's my friend out of the house, you know? Matt, what are you doing today? Are you having a gorgeous day? Yeah, I'm having a really nice day, actually. Okay, no, no, don't hang up. All right, Bye, guys. Why?
Peyton
Love you. Love you.
Julia
Love you. Bye.
Peyton
This is my worst nightmare. And I think if your friends aren't going to the bar with you, are they really your friends? I'm kidding. But, like, I would hope if you guys were both in relationships, like, you would still want to come out with me.
Julia
Of course I would. Want to. Like, PDA with my boyfriend all over the bar?
Peyton
Yes. Like, bring your.
Julia
I am pda.
Julie
I hate pdi. You are pda.
Julia
Ew. Why?
Julie
Is it an attention thing?
Julia
I think it must be an attention thing.
Peyton
Yeah. I hate pdi.
Julia
Why don't you guys tell me that?
Julie
But maybe if it's the. With the right person, I would like pda.
Julia
Are you guys ready? We're actually gonna sing. Okay. She, she got. She got away.
Julie
You sounded like spongebob.
Julia
Okay. She, she got. She got away.
Julie
You can do way better.
Julia

Julie
Okay, octave change.
Julia
That was good, right? Okay, Julia, your turn.
Julie

Julie
This ain't for the best. My reputation's never been worse.
Julia

Peyton
You want to send me into hysteria? Okay, stop. You're losing me. Stop.
Julia
Give me the damn card.
Julie
Stop. It's bt, Mom. BT has Bumble going on.
Peyton
She's all I want and I bumble.
Julie
For so long Bumble can't you see you're just not bumbling?
Julia
No. Oh, Nolan. Sometimes you just know which ones to pick. I just moved in with my best friend. Everyone's. Everything's going great, except she still hasn't unpacked, and it's been three weeks. Normally, I would. Did you make this up? No, normally I wouldn't care, but she's planning to have her stuff in our living room. How do I bring this up without making it a fight?
Julie
Who's on to us? We haven't unpacked yet. We've been here for over a month, so.
Peyton
Okay, so Julia and I literally have boxes in suitcases and plush throws all over the living room.
Julie
I don't know what you should do to your friend. Because we're the friend.
Peyton
We are the friends. But it's like we're both in the same. We're both in the same.
Julie
We do need to really accomplish it soon, though.
Peyton
I think that on Sunday, let's like, maybe like for three hours in the morning.
Julie
Like, but we need to finish.
Julia
I know.
Julie
It'd be like we make it done. Like, we need to get rid of it. I know.
Peyton
And we need to order a couch.

Julie
From.
Peyton
From my OG apartment.
Julia
Oh. I found an extra key that my boyfriend, soon to be fiance, said without any shame or conviction was to his second apartment. Like he said it was like he said.
Julie
I mean, that's just like, he said.
Julia
It like it was normal. He got it during our relationship and uses it to, quote, get space. He says he didn't lie because he just never told me. Oh, what the. And he was going to eventually, but he doesn't think it's a big deal. Like, I want to marry this man, but this is insane. Am I crazy? Run for the hills.
Peyton
I mean, use common sense. That honestly, like, pisses me off. Pissed me off.
Julia
Like.
Peyton
Like, seriously, it's like I know that you know better than that.
Julie
I hate the word fiance.
Julia
Why? Because. Why? Because all of our friends just got engaged?

Julie
Chunk of the wedding, I prescribed that episode where they're all dancing at the summer I turn pretty.
Peyton
What's that Netflix show? The Perfect Couple where they have, like, the choreography. Honestly, if it's something like that, then, like, that kind of hits. If not, it's giving, like, sweet 16.
