Brett
I really can't talk about it. I might start crying.
Tucker Pillsbury
I. It hasn't hit me yet.
Brett
It's starting to kind of hit me.
Tucker Pillsbury
It really hasn't hit me yet.
Brett
And it's really making me sad.
Tucker Pillsbury
But I push.
Brett
Yeah.
Tucker Pillsbury
That's what Alicia from Rhode island taught me. Just push it down.
Brett
Push, Push it down.
Tucker Pillsbury
Repress.
Brett
I'll do that for the next few weeks.
Tucker Pillsbury
Yeah. What's the point in being miserable?
Brett
It's too much going on.
Tucker Pillsbury
Yeah, but you were very stressed today.
Brett
Yeah, I just have a lot. There's a lot going on. Well, you have a lot going on, too. You're about to leave.
Tucker Pillsbury
I've changed. My personality has shifted a lot these past few months. Why do you think I'm vintage shopping now?
Brett
Right. That's the shirt.
Tucker Pillsbury
Yeah. Vintage, you guys. I only shop at one vintage store, which I know, like, is. Takes away the whole point from vintage shopping. Actually, say by vintage Journey started maybe at the beginning of this year.
Brett
I think it started in Japan.
Tucker Pillsbury
It started in Japan and on Depop.
Brett
Right.
Tucker Pillsbury
And it. I just took it to a level where it's like, I feel like my issue with vintage shopping is I feel like I need. I need it all. Because it's, like, one of one, and
Brett
it's, like, so cool. It's like, pieces, like, are, like, cool.
Tucker Pillsbury
Yeah. I'm like, I don't know when. Where this is from, but it spoke to me.
Brett
Remember we went to the Silver Lake flea market and vintage stores in college, and I bought that Chicago Bulls shirt that I like?
Tucker Pillsbury
Was it so hot?
Brett
It was hot. It was senior year.
Tucker Pillsbury
Why don't I remember that? Wait. Yes.
Brett
And I bought the. The three Mendis shirt.
Tucker Pillsbury
Do you wear it still?
Brett
Like, not. Not as much as I used to. I, like, lived in that shirt senior year, and we were like, oh, my God. Like.
Tucker Pillsbury
Yeah, because it's, like, one of one. It's like, where'd you get this?
Brett
Yeah.
Tucker Pillsbury
I don't know if people know this, but do people know your mom is Tucker's number one fan.
Brett
I don't think people know.
Tucker Pillsbury
Can you explain?
Brett
So. So my mom discovered Role Model last year. No, maybe a year and a half ago. But she was. She was early on it for like, the moms.
Tucker Pillsbury
Like, he has a big mom audience.
Brett
He has a big mom audience. But she was early on it and she like, became obsessed and like, obsessed with his new album. And like, she loves Tucker so much. She knows all his songs. And Jake once nicely got her a video message. Yeah, Jake got her a video message from Tucker and she calls him Tucker, not role Model. But should we ask her what her favorite song is? Should we see if she picks up? I think she would appreciate that.
Tucker Pillsbury
Yeah, just speak her phone in.
Brett
I'm here with Jakey.
Tucker Pillsbury
Hi, Mocho.
Brett
We are recording the intro to the
Tucker Pillsbury
therapist episode with Tucker and we wanted to know what your fate. We wanted to know what your favorite thing about Tucker is and your favorite song.
Mandy
Okay, but before I do that, can we just take a beat? Jake, are you aware of how good you look? And do you feel as good about yourself as you look currently?
Tucker Pillsbury
You know what? Today I felt it. Today I felt it. I'm laughing.
Mandy
Are you hearing me?
Tucker Pillsbury
No, I. And I need to hear you more because I. I do have. I'm still having like negative mindset.
Mandy
Okay, well, baby steps. But I want to tell you thank you. Sort of like Brett had a moment when she just like her authentic sunshine returned. And I feel like that's where you are right now.
Tucker Pillsbury
Yes, thank you. Oh, you really feel that way?
Mandy
I wouldn't say it if I didn't, honey.
Tucker Pillsbury
Oh, that's nice. Love you, Mocho. Thank you.
Mandy
You guys know that. All right, Tucker, like, I have to be careful because I'm a 62 year old grandmother. I can't. I gotta be careful because it's very sexual. But like, he just does this little thing with his mouth, sends the crowd spinning. And he is. He's a wordsmith, which I know you guys appreciate because of Taylor. Yeah, he has written powerful lyrics that we all want to sing from the top of our lungs and that is rare.
Tucker Pillsbury
So, yeah, he's a rarity.
Brett
What's your favorite song if you have to choose?
Mandy
I only do one. You can do.
Brett
You can do two.
Mandy
Can I do Early Tucker and then.
Tucker Pillsbury
Yes, please, please.
Mandy
Yeah, okay.
Tucker Pillsbury
All right.
Mandy
But I want to get the correct because the lyrics are in my head rather than song titles. So let me do a little research and I will do a text to you guys.
Brett
Okay, that's fine.
Mandy
And he has Sold out the salt shed before Mocho could get tickets. So I'm gonna lean in, guys. When? That's in September.
Tucker Pillsbury
Tucker.
Brett
What's the Salt Shed?
Tucker Pillsbury
A venue in Chicago.
Mandy
He's playing this venue in Chicago, which is outrageous and cool and. I mean, I. I was talking. Okay. I played Tucker's. The video that you got for me, Jake, at a party on the 4th of July because the girls were like, oh, my God, Mo were totally in a role model because of you. And I'm like, yeah, well, his name is Tucker on my phone. And they're like, why don't you put that on social media? I go, because that's not for social media. That's for me and you because I've had two cocktails.
Tucker Pillsbury
Yes.
Brett
Okay, well, we'll get you to Tucker in Chicago, Mom.
Mandy
Love you. Oh, my God. All right, so I will send. I know the words, but what are the words? The title of the song. You'll know the lyrics.
Brett
Some pretender, that one.
Mandy
No, just don't. I'm gonna do it. I'm gonna. I'm in the middle of an insurance assignment, but I will do your assignment as soon as I'm done with this.
Brett
All right? Okay. Love you. Bye.
Tucker Pillsbury
Love you. Mocho, where were you? Just.
Brett
I was just in Switzerland. In Croatia.
Tucker Pillsbury
Oh, yes. Brad, Brett. Brock. Brett, I can't speak to.
Brett
Oh, wait, did you see I got cautious in Switzerland?
Tucker Pillsbury
I did see that, and I'm realizing I can't speak because I'm high.
Brett
That makes sense.
Tucker Pillsbury
I'm like, why can't I speak? Like, why aren't my thoughts connecting to my.
Brett
Yeah. Did you end up smoking earlier at,
Tucker Pillsbury
like, a. Yeah, 11. I did.
Brett
Okay.
Tucker Pillsbury
It's the summer. When it's the summer and it's hot out, you just want to, like, be high, like, in the sun. And by the way, I've been getting some color on my face. Like, I woke up with some freckles.
Brett
Love.
Tucker Pillsbury
Oh, I've been watching Skins uk. Have you ever seen.
Brett
No. Was that on mtv?
Tucker Pillsbury
So there was a U. S. Version on mtv, and that was very poorly received.
Brett
Yeah, I remember.
Tucker Pillsbury
Very, very, very poorly received.
Brett
I remember my mom used to tell me if I saw Hawkins on the TV Guide, I couldn't. I couldn't press the show. I couldn't watch it.
Tucker Pillsbury
Well, you know, today in TV shows, they, like, outright say things because they assume that you're on your phone. Do you know this? They give, like, extra exposition.
Brett
I actually did know this.
Tucker Pillsbury
Like, they give, like. And I'm in the Restaurant. Like, they like. Like that, so. Because they assume people are on their phone, but. Whereas if you're back in the day, if you're. I'm watching Skins, and I'm like, oh, I have to, like, put my phone down and lock in, because I'm, like, going to miss some, like, minor detail that expl. That implies and explains this, because each episode's a different character. Oh, my God. Skins is amazing. Louise, you would die. How have you not seen Skins? Wait, what?
Brett
I've seen it, like, four times.
Tucker Pillsbury
Oh, like when it was. When it was airing. Well, I'm on a skin journey.
Brett
Well, I don't want to change the subjects.
Tucker Pillsbury
You can change the subject.
Brett
The new Hunger Games movie is going to change your life.
Tucker Pillsbury
Why? Because the book.
Brett
The book. Have you read it?
Tucker Pillsbury
I haven't read it, but I've been following your story. No, no, no, no, no.
Brett
Like, you don't understand. It's about Haymitch's games. The book is.
Tucker Pillsbury
Should I read the book?
Brett
Like, maybe. Have you been reading?
Tucker Pillsbury
No, but it. Like, what else am I gonna do?
Brett
It is so good. So sad.
Tucker Pillsbury
Okay.
Brett
So good. And the movie comes out November, and I'm so excited because I know you love the Hunger Games, and I do, too.
Tucker Pillsbury
I love the Hunger.
Mandy
It's gonna.
Brett
It's gonna, like. It's gonna.
Tucker Pillsbury
Okay, maybe I'll give it a. Maybe I'll give it a read.
Mandy
Yeah.
Tucker Pillsbury
Is it an easy read?
Brett
I mean, did you read the original Hunger Games?
Tucker Pillsbury
Yeah. Easiest reads ever, then.
Brett
Yes, it's very similar to the first one.
Tucker Pillsbury
Okay, I'm sold.
Brett
Yeah, I read it on vacation. It was amazing.
Tucker Pillsbury
You need to watch Skins, though.
Brett
Okay.
Tucker Pillsbury
It's old, though. It's, like, from 2007. Like, I don't know if you're down for that.
Brett
No, that's fine.
Mandy
I'm.
Brett
I'm rewatching.
Jake Shane
Or.
Brett
Actually, no, I'm not rewatching. I'm watching Entourage right now with Matt.
Tucker Pillsbury
Oh, then you can definitely do Skins, which is Skins walk so Euphoria could run. Or honestly, vice versa. Skins ran so Euphoria could walk like Skins. It's, like, actually, like, no offense to Euphoria. Like, Euphoria is great, but Skins is, like, changed my life. Like, Skins is like, I'm watching it, and I'm like, oh, my God. Like, the way these people live. Like, yeah, you could argue that it's bad because they, like, kind of are so day by day and, like. But not everything is the end of the world. Like, things kind of just happen in Skins. And life moves on. Do you know what I mean?
Brett
That's a good message.
Tucker Pillsbury
Like, life moves on. Like, no one in the show is like, oh, my God. It's the best show I've ever seen. It's amazing. The theme songs, like a banger.
Brett
I'm seeing if my mom has texted us. She hasn't.
Tucker Pillsbury
We've loved role models since senior year of college. Yes. Rx. What was our favorite? What was our favorite song off that?
Brett
Oh, she just responded. My mom said life is funny. Number one, Early Tucker with say it first. Close. Second Current talker, some protector.
Tucker Pillsbury
Oh, she's, like, going with.
Brett
With high hopes. 3000 in second by a nose forever and more.
Tucker Pillsbury
Oh, wait. Give me, give me, give me, give me.
Brett
Oh, and never let you go. And. And die for my. And who hurt you?
Tucker Pillsbury
Wait, my favorite is so good. Oh, I think my favorite was rx. Do you remember I loved our ex.
Brett
Yeah. On the way to berries.
Tucker Pillsbury
Never let you go was so good.
Brett
So good.
Tucker Pillsbury
But okay, at this current time, I'm in France, and if France is still in the World cup, oh, it's gonna be insane. It's gonna be insane. I'm gonna be having the time of my life.
Brett
Well, because everyone says Mbappe is, like, the best player, and he's French. Yeah.
Tucker Pillsbury
And I'm gonna be in France. Do you think they're gonna, like, have it on, like, every bar?
Brett
Yes, I think so. I think they go.
Tucker Pillsbury
I think they go, oh, my God. I was in France during the fucking heat wave.
Brett
Which is genuinely. Like, we didn't talk about it enough.
Tucker Pillsbury
Because I shut my mouth. I complain. Yeah, but I.
Mandy
We didn't.
Tucker Pillsbury
We don't talk about the fact that I was there for Louise. I mean, Brett, wow. When I left my hotel, I couldn't. I actually couldn't leave my hotel.
Mandy
No.
Tucker Pillsbury
You know, I can't even put. There was no one on the street.
Brett
Nobody was like, 105 degrees.
Tucker Pillsbury
It was crazy, crazy, crazy. Like, crazy. Like, I've never been so hot in my entire life. I was out at night. One night, the one night I went out, I was drinking wine, and all of a sudden, I feel a drop. And my back had been dripping sweat everywhere. And then I just looked around, and everyone's back was dripping.
Brett
Everyone's dripping.
Tucker Pillsbury
And I was like, okay, I guess I'll lean into the sweat.
Brett
Yeah, you kind of have to.
Tucker Pillsbury
It makes going out a tad more vulnerable and a tad more fun, I would say, actually, as well. Like, when I was out and I was sweating, I was Like, I'm out and I'm sweating, and I feel like I'm letting myself. Oh, the new Madonna album is amazing. Speaking of sweating, have you heard. Speaking of sweating, have you heard the new Madonna album? I've listened to, like, three songs low.
Brett
He said I haven't listened.
Tucker Pillsbury
It's so good. It's so good. Read my lips. Oh, good for the soul. Like.
Brett
Oh, you've been, like, listening to this album?
Tucker Pillsbury
Dude, I've been listening to this album.
Brett
Wow.
Tucker Pillsbury
Well, what I love about the album is it's really helping me deep dive into Madonna. And I'm, like, so fascinated about her early days in New York in the 80s and late 70s. I'm, like, fascinated by it.
Mandy
Yeah.
Tucker Pillsbury
Oh, when you are away, are you gonna be using my Shake and train with Jake Shane series on the Alo wellness club app?
Brett
Yeah, of course. I already have it downloaded.
Tucker Pillsbury
Really?
Jake Shane
Yeah.
Tucker Pillsbury
Aw, thank you. What's crazy about the Alo stuff is actually one of the first people to compliment me on my workout journey was Tucker in that very first episode. And my body has transformed so much since then. So I just am really excited that I got to do this because I'm like, I feel. I feel. I've never felt comfortable with my shirt off, as you know.
Brett
It's so full circle and amazing. Aloe has been such a big thing for you.
Tucker Pillsbury
Biggest.
Brett
Yeah.
Tucker Pillsbury
Every morning you go in aloe. Yeah, every single morning.
Brett
It's really a routine, and I got
Tucker Pillsbury

And it's free. I thought a fun way to stay in touch when you move despite you saying, like, I know. You're like, it's close by. We should send each other what song we're listening to that day that we're hyper fixated on.
Brett
Yes.
Tucker Pillsbury
Because we both always hyper fixate on a song of the day. So we always just like, wake up and send the song.
Brett
Yes.
Tucker Pillsbury
And I think that's a beautiful way to stay in touch.
Brett
Let's do that. But I was telling Max today that I'm just, like, so overwhelmed with, like, things that I have on to or I have going on too. And he said, well, it's better that to be underwhelmed.
Tucker Pillsbury
Yes, always.
Brett
I Was like, you're so right.
Tucker Pillsbury
Always. Joan River's biopic. She'll point to the page of nothing and say, this is my worst nightmare.
Brett
Yeah. Yeah.
Tucker Pillsbury
So you got to just be grateful.
Brett
Yeah. And power through.
Tucker Pillsbury
Well, should we say our favorite Tucker song in honor of the third episode?
Brett
Yeah.
Tucker Pillsbury
What's yours?
Brett
I think forever and More Mine, Sally. Oh, well, of course, because you were the first Sally ever. Yeah.

Tucker Pillsbury
I even want to hear it.
Jake Shane
We're friends now.
Tucker Pillsbury
Okay. Continue with your intro. I'm so sorry.
Jake Shane
The first time we did this, we were strangers, complete. We've gotten to know each other.
Tucker Pillsbury
And your phone's buzzing a lot.
Jake Shane
Keep in contact.
Tucker Pillsbury
How is moving the phone from one side of the octopus to the other gonna stop it from buzzing?
Jake Shane
I don't know what to do. Do with it. I'm sorry. But I'm happy to be back. I know we. Our thing is maybe that we're. We sort of go at. Go at it with each other a lot.
Tucker Pillsbury
Oh, yeah. This Your new era about kindness.
Jake Shane
And so now I just think that maybe we could open this episode with kindness.
Tucker Pillsbury
Oh, okay.
Jake Shane
And being sweet to one another.
Tucker Pillsbury
My hands are a little balmy.
Jake Shane
Oh, yours are too bomby.
Tucker Pillsbury
Balmy.
Jake Shane
Gross.
Tucker Pillsbury
Okay,
Jake Shane
so I'd like to just start
Tucker Pillsbury
by his new album, Chuck. Timely. And the Hourglass is out August 7th. Please give it up for Tucker role model Pillsbury. Well, I have to do that.
Jake Shane
Okay. But like I was saying, I think that we could just start with kindness. I just want to start by saying I'm. I'm proud of you. You're a very hard worker. You've done so much more than make tick tocks impersonating things.
Tucker Pillsbury
Thank you. Well, okay, so if we're opening this up with kindness, I am very proud of you. You've been singing all around the town, everywhere. And people know every word.
Jake Shane
Some of them. Yeah.
Tucker Pillsbury
Every word.
Jake Shane
I will say there's one other thing I want to just start off with. Remember when you called me when Niall Horn was on here?
Tucker Pillsbury
Yeah. Are you trying to, like, clear the air on the.
Jake Shane
Yes. Because I caught shit.
Tucker Pillsbury
I know you did.
Jake Shane
And people didn't take the joke, but understand this. I was in the studio, and I was working. Jake called Me. I didn't answer. He called me again. I didn't answer. And before I could even text him and be like, hey, I'll call you later, Niall Horn calls me for the first time ever. Yeah, he's never called me. And so obviously in my head, I go, oh, they're on the podcast. This would be funny if I pick up for him and not for Jake.
Tucker Pillsbury
And it was funny.
Jake Shane
And it was funny.
Tucker Pillsbury
Did people actually get angry about it?
Jake Shane
People were like, he's, like, the worst friend ever. Oh, this is, like, too far out of everything.
Tucker Pillsbury
Out of everything.
Jake Shane
It's just.
Tucker Pillsbury
Any new tattoos? What?
Jake Shane
No new tattoos. I heard you want to get it. Ear piercing. I remember you called me and asked if that would be a good idea.
Tucker Pillsbury
I don't even remember that.
Jake Shane
Did you say you were doing a mass calling of, like, everyone, you know, to be like, is it weird if I get my ear pierced?
Tucker Pillsbury
And what did you say?
Jake Shane
I think I talked you out of it.
Tucker Pillsbury
You don't think so?
Jake Shane
Because I just. You were talking about a single earring, and.
Tucker Pillsbury
Yeah, like, one right here. I know, but don't you have one? But your ears are pierced?
Jake Shane
They used to be.
Tucker Pillsbury
When'd you get them out?
Jake Shane
You know what's funny is as soon I did a movie with Lena.
Tucker Pillsbury
I know you, huh?
Jake Shane
Way long time ago when the first time she ever called me about it and was like, I have this movie, blah, blah, blah. Talk to me about. Wasn't even, like, confirmed that I'd be in the movie. It was just the possibility. I was like. I got off the phone and I took my earrings out, and I was like, they need to. I want them to heal before I shoot a movie because I don't want to look like a douchebag in a movie with Natalie Portman.
Tucker Pillsbury
Did they heal?
Jake Shane
Kind of. But I think you can still see the little dot.
Tucker Pillsbury
Yeah, I can.
Jake Shane
Unfortunately.
Tucker Pillsbury
I don't think it's unfortunately.
Jake Shane
I just. I thought maybe I just needed to grow up a little bit, and so Lena Dunham is the reason I did it.
Tucker Pillsbury
Oh, wow.
Jake Shane
It's a cool, fun fact for a therapist.
Tucker Pillsbury
I still hear your phone buzzing. Buzz, buzz, buzz.
Jake Shane
I can't do anything about it.
Tucker Pillsbury
You can't put your phone on do not disturb.
Jake Shane
You can just throw it out there. I'm sorry.
Tucker Pillsbury
I like your ballet shoes.
Jake Shane
Thanks. My. They're my lemon pepper steppers. I was told.
Tucker Pillsbury
What?
Jake Shane
They're my lemon pepper steppers.
Tucker Pillsbury
What do you mean, lemon peppers? What's a lemon pepper?
Jake Shane
Someone on my touring team said you Got the Lemon Pepper Steppers.
Tucker Pillsbury
Are you excited to go back on tour?
Jake Shane
I am excited to go back on tour. I'm very excited. We just did some festivals I saw in Europe, and it got me very excited, but it was fun. So, like, let's just sit with it for a second.
Tucker Pillsbury
Okay.
Jake Shane
Because I'm just. I thought by now you'd be better. And I just saw it, and your eyes just searching for. And it's just. It hit me and I was like, oh, he's probably seasoned by now. He's like. He's probably got this down. But I just gotta sit with it for a sec because I don't think you do.
Tucker Pillsbury
Okay. What if we go back to our roots for a second?
Jake Shane
Yeah.
Tucker Pillsbury
And play the game?
Jake Shane

Jake Shane
How long did it take us the other time?
Tucker Pillsbury
Like, two hours. But then when we got it, it was amazing.
Jake Shane
Let's just start again really quick.
Tucker Pillsbury
Okay. Oh, my wrist. Have you heard about my wrist?
Jake Shane
No. Let's go. Let's come back to this game, talk about the wrist.
Tucker Pillsbury
Okay. Three, two, one.
Jake Shane
Come back to the game, talk about your wrist right now.
Tucker Pillsbury
Oh, okay.
Jake Shane
Let's come back when we.
Tucker Pillsbury
Okay. I think I have De Quervan's tendonitis.
Jake Shane
You did tell me about that.
Tucker Pillsbury
And it hurts. Look.
Jake Shane
Is that why it's shaking?
Tucker Pillsbury
This tendon so inflamed?
Jake Shane
Oh, Jake.
Tucker Pillsbury
I know I've been run ragged.
Jake Shane
And how do you help it?
Tucker Pillsbury
What?
Jake Shane
How do you help the wrist? What do you do?
Tucker Pillsbury
Oh, physical therapy. Okay. Steroid shot. Okay. I have a brace. I. I sit.
Jake Shane
I'm sorry.
Tucker Pillsbury
Have you ever hurt a part of yourself?
Jake Shane
I have. I've broken a lot of bones.
Tucker Pillsbury
What bones?
Jake Shane
My knee, my wrists, my arm.
Tucker Pillsbury
I broke my wrist.
Jake Shane
Yeah, I broke it multiple times. And I have scars on my wrist from it.
Tucker Pillsbury
And then. When did you break your knee?
Jake Shane
Not what people want to hear right now.
Tucker Pillsbury
Okay, so what do you think we want to hear?
Jake Shane
I don't know.
Tucker Pillsbury
Like, the Sally thing is just run dry.
Mandy
Huh.
Jake Shane
How do you feel about that? The Sally thing ending? You started the Sally thing. How does it feel that it's now ended?
Tucker Pillsbury
Like, good, because every time you brought up a different Sally on stage, I Would be like, okay, yeah, right. I'd be like, okay. And then you didn't end it with me, which would have been sweet.
Jake Shane
And now neither of us are going to have anything to talk about in interviews.
Tucker Pillsbury
Have you officially, like, killed it, like.
Jake Shane
I think it's important to know when to end a bit.
Tucker Pillsbury
So who was your final Sally? Who was the last one?
Jake Shane
I didn't think about it at the time, but it was Robert Irwin and it was truly. I think, aside from Olivia, Rodrigo. It was the craziest response to Asali.
Tucker Pillsbury
Watch it.
Jake Shane
No, I'm just saying the pride of his nation. Country, nation.
Tucker Pillsbury
Was he from New Zealand? Australia.
Jake Shane
Australia, yeah.
Tucker Pillsbury
What do you. What do you.
Jake Shane
I'm on my pager.
Tucker Pillsbury
That's not a pager.
Jake Shane
It's not a pager.
Tucker Pillsbury
Is that for your diabetes?
Jake Shane
How is Nick Jonas? He's. Diabetes?
Tucker Pillsbury
Yeah, we spoke about it, actually.
Jake Shane
We spoke about his diabetes and he remembered meeting me. Yeah, I didn't think he would.
Tucker Pillsbury
Oh, from Vegas. Yeah, I know. He said he's like.
Jake Shane
He was there, too. We talked about that.
Tucker Pillsbury
And you said you remember me, but I know you did it.
Jake Shane
I do. I remember exactly where you were on the plane.
Tucker Pillsbury
The back. No, I was in the back.
Jake Shane
Okay. Three, two, one.

Chief Creative Officer.
Jake Shane
Oh, I see your name is on it.
Tucker Pillsbury
Yeah. Jake. Shane. Sour Puss. It's amazing.
Jake Shane
Okay.
Tucker Pillsbury
You let me know when you want one.
Jake Shane
I will let you know. Let's go back because we talked about being nice.
Tucker Pillsbury
Yes. Sorry. I feel like I'm being a little mean. Yeah, I feel like I'm being mean. Like I came into this thinking you were going to come for me.
Jake Shane
No, I wanted to try and be nice today because I feel like
Mandy
I want.
Tucker Pillsbury
When. They're just so good. They're just so good. I can't look at them and not eat them. What are we saying?
Jake Shane
Yeah, make sure you eat it into the mic, too. Just ripped off his headphones. I can't even imagine what you just went through there. That kills me.
Tucker Pillsbury
Let me get comfortable.
Jake Shane
That was tough. That was not a cleanser.
Tucker Pillsbury
How's the east side of Los Angeles?
Jake Shane
It's good. I have a house now.
Tucker Pillsbury
You have a house?
Jake Shane
I have a house.
Tucker Pillsbury
So you do make money.
Jake Shane
It's. It's nothing like yours.
Tucker Pillsbury
I've lived in the same house since you've known me.
Jake Shane
I've seen Yours.
Tucker Pillsbury
I've lived in the same house since you've known me.
Jake Shane
I know, and it's always been impressive, but you lived here with a lot of people, and now you pretty much are about to live here alone.
Tucker Pillsbury
I know. What are we gonna do?
Jake Shane
Which proves. I don't know. I don't. I don't know why you live out here. I'm not gonna dox you, but I don't know why you live where I live. Because you're such a social butterfly that I would think you'd want to be near.
Tucker Pillsbury
What's your favorite memory with me since we last recorded?
Jake Shane
I enjoyed I remember you on my birthday last year.
Tucker Pillsbury
So fun.
Jake Shane
Well, okay. I had a. I don't love celebrating my birthday. So I just had a dinner with what was about. It was going to be me and my four friends. I remember you called me and you're like, it's your birthday. And I was like, yeah, I'm going to dinner. And he was like, I'm coming. And then Jake showed up, and it was actually, like, really fun. And you got to meet, like, Kai, and it was fun.
Tucker Pillsbury
And I love Kai.
Jake Shane
Yeah, I love Kai.
Tucker Pillsbury
You spend a lot of time with Kai.
Jake Shane
I do. That's my. That's my bestie.
Tucker Pillsbury
Do you miss him right now?
Jake Shane
I do. I haven't seen him in, like, what, two days? I was in, like, five days. I miss him.
Tucker Pillsbury
That's how I feel about my best friends, too.
Jake Shane
They're in New York.
Tucker Pillsbury
Yeah.
Mandy
You.
Tucker Pillsbury
You know.
Jake Shane
I know. You know.
Tucker Pillsbury
Well, I got a place in New York.
Jake Shane
I found that out recently because anytime you'd FaceTime me when you were in New York, the background and stuff, it is what I imagine. Like, I just imagined you were staying with Tate McRae. That's yours. You can say it proudly.
Tucker Pillsbury
It's my apartment that I got after I did Broadway, period. Well, where's your Birkin?
Jake Shane
I was gonna bring it because we talked about. I wanted to sell it to you. I don't.
Tucker Pillsbury
Can I be honest? I thought you were gonna, like, midway through that episode, be like, I have a surprise for you.
Jake Shane
Give it to you. Yeah, well, funny story. I was gonna do a music video that I'm not gonna do anymore, but I had a music video, and my dream is to have Sexyy Red in a music video. And I just. I love her. I think she's amazing. And what I was gonna do, my pitch was I was going to give her the Birkin to just be in the music video.
Tucker Pillsbury
Yeah. You know, Neon gives Alabama Barker Birkins all the time.
Jake Shane
I don't know.
Tucker Pillsbury
That doesn't come across your desk.
Jake Shane

I don't know if you've heard, but I have a new workout series with the Aloe Wellness Club app called the Shake and Train with Jake Shane series. It is four 10 minute workout sessions. Two are strength training to our Pilates, and I have such an incredible time filming them in the south of France with Louis, Chandler and Bianca. It was seriously one of the most fun days of my entire life. And that whole trip in general was just incredible. But if you listen to this podcast, you know that I've had a really important relationship with working out over these past three years. And that's all thanks to the Alo Wellness Club, both in Los Angeles and New York, and all the trainers there. They've like, really helped shift my mindset on working out, which has been like, honestly, consistently working out has been a struggle for me throughout my entire life. I finally feel like I'm out of place because of the Alo Wellness Club and these trainers. I'm really proud of my progress that I've made. Also travel a lot. When I travel, it's hard for me to consistently go to the gym if I don't have a routine. And the Allo Wellness Club apply helps me have a routine. Because even if you don't like my series, which is so fine. There are 4,000 other classes that you can do from yoga, strength training, Pilates, mat barre, like, anything you need. The Aloe Wellness Club app has and helps you stay on a good workout schedule, even if you're just in your room or even if you only have 10 minutes. Like, the classes are only. Some of the classes are only 10 minutes. Classes. I do. They're four classes. They're 10 minutes each. You can do only one of them and still have a great workout. Also, the great thing is I wanted to make the series feel like my podcast meets me working out in a way. So I feel, I hope that they make you laugh as hard as I laughed while filming them and working out, because working out is also about having fun. Also, the best thing is it's free. You can just go to alawellnessclub.com Jake and download the app today to start working out with me. That's aloellnessclub.com/jake. Thank you again, Alo, for working with me. This has been such a dream. I hope this is only the beginning. I think what we feel. What I feel right now is like, okay, the first two were amazing and now it's like the third and it's like a lot has changed. And it's like, well, what now?
Jake Shane
Let's talk about that. Because I. There's a. Now I'm just gonna. The Internet's very predictable. I'm sure you know that as well. It's gonna be. This is gonna be the fall off episode of us too.
Tucker Pillsbury
You think? I kind of had that feeling this morning. I woke up and I was like, are people. Is it gonna. Is this it?
Jake Shane
They're just. It's just predictable. They're gonna be like, oh, I liked it better when they were strangers and they were like flirting with each other and like. And it was like, yeah. And now they're gonna be like, now it's on Netflix, right? They hang out.
Tucker Pillsbury
You think that Netflix has changed stuff.
Jake Shane
I'm excited to be on Netflix and I can say hi to.
Tucker Pillsbury
Say hi to Netflix.
Jake Shane
My family.
Tucker Pillsbury
You're on that. You're already on Netflix twice. You know that.
Jake Shane
I'm gonna be on there for reals Three times. I do miss you, though.
Tucker Pillsbury
I never see you. I know, but we FaceTime.
Jake Shane
We're busy. You have to. It's.
Tucker Pillsbury
I always face your boy. You're always on a flight. You like flying? I hate flying.
Jake Shane
No, I hate traveling. I really hate traveling. Can I say my new take that? I'M realizing is, like, I was just in Europe and it's beautiful. Especially, like the shows there are very fun. The crowds are, like, completely different. Yeah, there's no phones, which I don't care. You can have your phones out, but there's no phones.
Tucker Pillsbury
I mean, God willing, or else Sally wouldn't be a thing.
Jake Shane
And they, like, dance with each other. It's like communal. It's, like, amazing. But I will say, as far as just, like, being out there and I'm just sitting in hotel rooms and I will say, I just. I weirdly Miss America and it. And then I get back here and you land in, like, an American airport. And I see the McDonald's and I see this shitty little food things, and it just, like, makes me happy. And I like.
Tucker Pillsbury
Oh, you, like, are happy when you land back here?
Jake Shane
I think I like America. And it's such a weird thing to say, and I'll probably get in trouble for saying it, but I think I've just come to the realization that I. I like.
Tucker Pillsbury
Well, here's what I like about America more than Europe.
Jake Shane
Great. Hit me with it.
Tucker Pillsbury
They have air conditioning here.
Jake Shane
Go down together. Let's talk about how much we love.
Tucker Pillsbury
They have air conditioning here that they. When you ask for a drink, they give you ice without even asking for the ice.
Jake Shane
I like that. I like that they put a lemon in the Coke thing for it automatically.
Tucker Pillsbury
You still. You. You what? Diet Coke or Coke. I don't even know that about. Right.
Jake Shane
They do Coke Zero, though.
Tucker Pillsbury
I know, but that doesn't make a difference. Do you think that makes.
Jake Shane
It doesn't make a difference. I like that when you. I don't like when you postmates over there. You just don't. It's all unfamiliar.
Tucker Pillsbury
I don't even try.
Jake Shane
You could be, like, ordering from the worst place on earth. There could be rats in the box. And you don't know because you just judge on pictures like, you ordering. Do you understand what I'm saying?
Tucker Pillsbury
You're angry because you don't know about the reputation of a restaurant because you don't live there.
Jake Shane
I order off Postmates a lot when I'm overseas. And the problem is I don't know any of these restaurants. So, like, I could be ordering from a dinner from, like, a 711 and not knowing it.
Tucker Pillsbury
You know, there's like, Yelp.
Jake Shane
I don't know.
Tucker Pillsbury
You've never Yelped?
Jake Shane
No, I have truly never been on one of those.
Tucker Pillsbury
A food review site.
Jake Shane
Yeah.
Tucker Pillsbury
So whose fault is that for not.
Jake Shane
It's Mine. I'm just saying, yes, I'm lazy, but I like the comfort of knowing. I like the car. I think I like America.
Tucker Pillsbury
I got it.
Jake Shane
I got it saying it, but I
Tucker Pillsbury
think I do LA or New York.
Jake Shane
New York.
Tucker Pillsbury
Really? But you live here full time.
Jake Shane
If I'm in album mode, I'm working Monday through Friday for like month long lockouts. So it's as. I don't even. It doesn't matter that I live here. I'm not going outside, so it's fine. But then if I have too much downtime, then I need to leave and I go home. Or I go to Maine. I go to Maine or I go to New York.
Tucker Pillsbury
Yeah, Maine.
Jake Shane
Maine. I'm gonna go next week.
Tucker Pillsbury
Are you excited?
Jake Shane
I am.
Tucker Pillsbury
You can get a lobster roll.
Jake Shane
It's my favorite place. I don't see food.
Tucker Pillsbury
Did we cover that before?
Jake Shane
I'm sure I just don't do it.
Tucker Pillsbury
Oh, you're not allergic? You just don't do it.
Jake Shane
I just don't do it. I've never had it and I just. It's one of those things.
Tucker Pillsbury
You do eat meat.
Jake Shane
I eat meat. I've never had seafood and I just never want to have it. The idea. I just don't like what? I don't like the idea of it.
Tucker Pillsbury
Of seafood. Like, what about the idea of it? Do you not like?
Jake Shane
I don't know. With most of it's the smell. I also just like crustaceans. It's like to me, that's like an insect that you're cooking and then you're eating. Like, I just like. Lobsters are insects. They're bottom feeders. Fun fact. They used to feed prisoners lobsters long time ago and that. I'm just gonna throw it out there. Early 1900s maybe. But they used to feed prisoners lobster dinners because it was. They. It was like their bottom feeders and so they were like thought of as a shitty thing that you.
Tucker Pillsbury
But now lobster is the most expensive thing on the menu now.
Jake Shane
It's like someone like you eats it.
Tucker Pillsbury
You've been working out.
Jake Shane
You. Oh, my God. You have been working out.
Tucker Pillsbury
Oh, that's what I was going.
Jake Shane
That's what you.

Tucker Pillsbury
I look healthy.
Jake Shane

Were you nervous?
Jake Shane
No. I was really funny. I screenshotted the thing of you being like. You called me gay. Something. Something. It really, like, made me laugh out loud.

Tucker Pillsbury
We said, I'm a fucking rip your face off. Are you a Marvel fan?

Jake Shane
What? Which movie that Marvel is?
Tucker Pillsbury

Tucker Pillsbury
You can't. I feel like their whole thing, though, is about, like.

Tucker Pillsbury
My favorite part of Marvel, I like, he's over there.

Jake Shane
The Hulk. Remember, the Hulk is like, he's over there. Go get him.
Tucker Pillsbury

What's my favorite part is Anything with Wanda.
Jake Shane
Okay.
Tucker Pillsbury
I love Wanda.
Jake Shane
Okay.
Tucker Pillsbury
She's the most powerful being in the universe.
Jake Shane
I watched this documentary recently called Streetwise. And it's unbelievable. And I think you should watch. Gets really sad, but it's about the homeless. It's like homeless teens, young teens in Seattle in the 80s. And it, like, follows them around. And it's like a documentary, but it feels like a movie because there's, like, arcs and there's like, some of them meet each other and, like, fall in Love. And there's, like. It's amazing.
Tucker Pillsbury
Is it a docu series or a movie?
Jake Shane
Documentary? Okay, one.
Tucker Pillsbury
Yep. You watch a lot of documentaries?
Jake Shane
No. Nope. No, I liked that one. Just wanted to. In my head, I was like, make sure you do a movie wreck.
Tucker Pillsbury
Yeah.
Jake Shane
In the podcast. Make sure you clear up the now horn thing.
Tucker Pillsbury
Yeah. You were stressed about that. I could feel it. You never even texted me about it,
Jake Shane
though, and asked Jake how he feels about Sally ending.
Tucker Pillsbury
I was sad.
Jake Shane
I think you know when to end a bit, too, though.
Tucker Pillsbury
I do.
Jake Shane
You stop doing your impressions for a period, and then, like, you'll bring them back here and there.
Tucker Pillsbury
Just to remind people of why I'm here.
Jake Shane
Where you came from. Yeah, just to remind people I respect them.
Tucker Pillsbury
You watching any TV right now?
Mandy
Right.
Jake Shane
What am I watching? No, I'm not.
Tucker Pillsbury
You watching any movies right now?

Oh, I watch that too. You know the guy who's making my show? His wife produced it.
Jake Shane
Very cool.

Yeah. Not that you give a.
Jake Shane
Can I make, like, a small cameo?
Tucker Pillsbury
Tucker, I would be honored.
Jake Shane
Yeah.
Tucker Pillsbury
Just thought you'd be too busy for me now.
Jake Shane
I think it'd be fun.
Tucker Pillsbury
You want to make a small cameo in episode one?
Jake Shane
Maybe I could be, like, a janitor or something. And I go. And you. You're kind of, like, walking out of the school, and I'm like, hey, kid. And you turn around, I'm like, happy Pride. And then, like, a song plays, and it's like a beautiful moment, and you're like, what song?
Tucker Pillsbury
What. What song do you want to play? Of yours?
Jake Shane
Of mine? I don't know. I'm just saying, like, a song plays after I say happy pride. Like, maybe it's. What would be a pride. Friendly song, like, Born this way.
Tucker Pillsbury
Hey, kid. Happy Pride. And then Born this Way starts playing.
Jake Shane
Yeah. Yeah, that'd be cool. I think it'd get a lot of. Yeah. Do you. How's your love life?
Tucker Pillsbury
Horrible.
Jake Shane
What's going on? Talk to me about it.
Tucker Pillsbury
Okay. Well, I mean, I guess if we're just gonna. I was seeing this guy. We went on one date, and then he was like, never mind. And then I listened to thank you, Next all the way through until the end of my car ride back from Boston with Louise. And Louise on a train.
Jake Shane
Right?
Tucker Pillsbury
Boston. And I'm telling you, baby, this the part where I run. It's the part where they run. That part I missed.
Jake Shane
No.
Tucker Pillsbury
What's next?
Jake Shane
Oh, yeah. We did American Idol one time on here.
Tucker Pillsbury
Do you want me to sing for You?
Jake Shane
Yeah, Just bring back old bits we need.
Tucker Pillsbury
But I don't even understand. Like, he's nervous, too. It's not just me.
Jake Shane
I'm not nervous. I'm just like, is this our.
Tucker Pillsbury
Is this our final bow?
Jake Shane
This is our final bow.
Tucker Pillsbury
Like, you think people are going to be. I like Tucker. I've been feeling that way lately, but I just.
Jake Shane
I do. I get annoyed when a mass army on Twitter all of a sudden, like, pretends to care about something.
Tucker Pillsbury
Have you experienced that ever?
Jake Shane
I don't think so, but I think this is the album where. I'm sure. I'm sure it's like, the point. So you think it's over post Sally. I think people are gonna be like, let's take him down.
Tucker Pillsbury
I want to be in a music video. I keep thinking you're going to ask me and you never do.
Jake Shane
It's my gayar. I got to think about that.
Mandy
I don't.
Jake Shane
I don't know if we have.
Tucker Pillsbury
Would love it.
Jake Shane
Yeah. I don't know if we have a role for you. I think it's fine.
Tucker Pillsbury
I hear that a lot.
Jake Shane
Oh, we could. That's
Tucker Pillsbury
so good.
Jake Shane
I know, I know, I know.
Tucker Pillsbury
I dance.
Jake Shane
I know. Oh, yeah. Show us. Because you've been. You told me you've been working on your dance moves.
Tucker Pillsbury
I never told you that.
Jake Shane
And I was like, I would love to see some of those that you've been working on.
Tucker Pillsbury
No, I've never told you that.
Jake Shane
Well, because you're saying that you've, like, the Pilates and stuff has helped you with dance, and so I'd like to see some of it.
Tucker Pillsbury
Really? This is what we're gonna do. You're gonna make me get up and dance for you.
Jake Shane
You said you've been working on it.
Tucker Pillsbury
Okay, well, sing a song then. Well, not yet. What song do you want to sing? You have to tell me so I can prep my dance moves.
Jake Shane
Maybe I sing something for Pride month.
Tucker Pillsbury
Okay. What are you gonna sing?
Jake Shane
It's my. It's original. Here we go. Stand up. Whoa, whoa. It's okay to be gay. Whoa, whoa. Oh. It's okay to.
Tucker Pillsbury
Can we just go back to the singing bit where I sing for you? Like, I don't like the dancing.
Jake Shane
That was the funniest thing I've seen you do, though.
Tucker Pillsbury
Really?
Jake Shane
Dance was, like, very cute. Dude, can we just do it one more time?
Tucker Pillsbury
I thought.
Jake Shane
Whoa, whoa.
Tucker Pillsbury
Keep singing. I'm comfortable.
Jake Shane
I wish I could get a camera to show your eyes. When you do it, you look at me. You have, like, Singing Whoa, whoa It's okay to be gay Whoa, whoa it's okay to be gay Whoa, whoa it's okay to be gay Whoa, whoa Your. Your eyes. I've never seen your eyes light up the way they did.
Tucker Pillsbury
I love to dance.
Jake Shane
So maybe you. Yeah.
Tucker Pillsbury
And I love you.
Jake Shane
I love you.
Tucker Pillsbury
What are you therapist about today? I'm constipated. And I know the people online are going to clip that and be like, what the is the show even about? Because they do that all the time.
Jake Shane
Predictable.
Tucker Pillsbury
And it's just me. But I'm constipated and it really sucks. And that's what I'm pissed about. I woke up thinking about it. I'm thinking about it right now.
Jake Shane
My friend goes through that and.
Tucker Pillsbury
Right. Because you don't poop.
Jake Shane
I. I don't.
Tucker Pillsbury
I know that's what I just said. Except when you. In the river in Maine.
Jake Shane
That was made up. I made that up to get clicks. But I personally have never.
Tucker Pillsbury
Never. It's okay.
Jake Shane
I'm a singer. Huh? I play guitar and I sing and I write music and I go on romantic dates and stuff. I'm not. I wonder I have time to be so disgusting.
Tucker Pillsbury
I guess. You know, I guess I have all the time in the world.
Jake Shane
I would never.
Tucker Pillsbury
So what are you pissed about?
Jake Shane
Nothing today. I just. I'm on my. I don't like being on my phone. I hate my phone going off.
Tucker Pillsbury
It's just like.
Jake Shane
I know we've talked a lot and you're. We talk a lot about how I don't have anxiety. The only thing that, like, really gets my heart rate up is my phone,
Tucker Pillsbury
which I think you're a tad more anxious.
Jake Shane
I'm not. I'm just. I get overwhelmed very easily.
Mandy
So.
Tucker Pillsbury
What do you do when you get overwhelmed?
Jake Shane
Well, now I have a new. My new hobby. And now I fish, which you FaceTime me. One night when I was fishing and
Tucker Pillsbury
I said I wanted to fish with you.
Jake Shane
I know.
Tucker Pillsbury
I said, how funny would that be if we went fishing for episode three? I just said, we're back here.
Jake Shane
It's. That is. That is amazing fishing. It's the best. It's complete. It's quiet, dead quiet. And you're by yourself and you have to be focused and you don't think of anything else. My mind all of a sudden kind of goes blank. And I love that.
Tucker Pillsbury
Do you listen to music while you fish?
Jake Shane
No, I just said it's dead quiet. You hear the birds. You're outside the river.
Tucker Pillsbury
Does no one listen to music While they fish.
Jake Shane
I'm sure the fish does, but I'm just saying that would defeat the purpose for me.
Tucker Pillsbury
Have you ever raw dogged a flight?
Jake Shane
I don't know if we talked about this, but I've fainted on flights many times.
Tucker Pillsbury
Cuz you're diabetic?
Jake Shane
No.
Tucker Pillsbury
Oh.
Jake Shane
It's connected though. I. I used to smoke weed a lot.
Tucker Pillsbury
I still do. I'm back on the wagon.
Jake Shane
It's all right. You look amazing. It's okay.
Tucker Pillsbury
Okay.
Jake Shane
But I used to smoke weed a lot and then I kind of stopped smoking and I just was doing edibles and I would fly and I would take edibles and sometimes I'd be okay. And then sometimes I would. I would have the most insane panic attack where my music, my heart rate would start going. I would start. My whole body would break out into a sweat, like a crazy cold sweat.
Tucker Pillsbury
I hate a cold sweat.
Jake Shane
And then the music I'm listening to would like start to distort into like dark, like demonic, like scary horror sounds. And then, and then I would get in my head and be like, oh my God, I'm about to have a seizure. I think my blood sugar is low because it's like a similar feeling.
Tucker Pillsbury
Is that what happens when your blood sugar gets too low?
Jake Shane
You have seizures, start like shaking and you have. And you get like a cold sweat sometimes and like you feel. It's to me, feeling like too high felt similar to having like a really low blood sugar.
Tucker Pillsbury
Oh, how interesting.
Jake Shane
I would get a panic attack and I'd pass out on the plane. And then I'd wake up and the flight attendant would be like, are you okay? Yeah.
Tucker Pillsbury
And you'd be like, oh my God.
Jake Shane
But how embarrassing would that be? Now imagine why. Because you're famous, getting recognized and you're like. You faint running to the bathroom. Oh my God.
Tucker Pillsbury
You fainted on your way to the bathroom.
Jake Shane
It happened multiple times.
Tucker Pillsbury
And now someone would be like, I saw a role model faint on a plane.
Jake Shane
Oh my God. I know. Be good for the album.
Tucker Pillsbury
I was about to say, well, congrats. You just debuted on Billboard.
Jake Shane
Yeah, I know. It's all right. Jakey Hungies.
Tucker Pillsbury
I am hungry. No. Okay. I'm not hungry. It's because I ate too much. You want to phone a friend?
Jake Shane
Do you still people. Do you still do the thing where people you. Was it people called you or left Voice?
Tucker Pillsbury
No, I would, I would call people. I haven't done it in a while.
Jake Shane
So you don't do it no more.
Tucker Pillsbury
Do you remember the jalowin girls used
Jake Shane
to eat up time. We remember. You brought up an idea a long time ago of us doing a. Like a travel show.
Tucker Pillsbury
Yes, I want to do that.
Jake Shane
I. I was think. Because I remember you first brought it up to me, and I was like, no.
Tucker Pillsbury
Okay.
Jake Shane
And now I'm thinking. And then I was thinking about the other day, and I. I do think it would be funny.
Tucker Pillsbury
Do you ever feel like if all goes wrong, at least we have each other?
Jake Shane
It's okay to be gay.
Tucker Pillsbury
Whoa.
Mandy
Whoa.
Tucker Pillsbury
Do you sample anything on the new album?
Jake Shane
No.
Tucker Pillsbury
All originals.
Jake Shane
So the originals.
Tucker Pillsbury
So who's the Hourglass?
Jake Shane
Who.
Tucker Pillsbury
Who's the Hourglass?
Jake Shane
This is not a who, it's just a what. Time, Chuck.
Tucker Pillsbury
Timely and time
Jake Shane
check. Timely in the time. Yeah, yeah.
Tucker Pillsbury
Hopes. What are you listening to?
Jake Shane
Nothing. You like?
Tucker Pillsbury
What do you think about my Strokes era?
Jake Shane
That surprised me that you knew every word to a Stroke song. Surprise. That was very cool.
Tucker Pillsbury
Yeah, I. I felt cool.
Jake Shane
That was. Yeah. Cool. Points for that.
Tucker Pillsbury
Oh, my exes. I'm lacking in depth.
Jake Shane
Hey. Welcome.
Mandy
What?
Tucker Pillsbury
Welcome.
Jake Shane
I'm. Do you want to just give us your name, where you're from, and a little bit about yourself?
Tucker Pillsbury
I'm Jake. I'm from Kansas City. Kansas City, Missouri.
Jake Shane
Nice.
Tucker Pillsbury
And I've always had dreams of being a singer.
Jake Shane
Nice. It says here that you actually walked here.
Tucker Pillsbury
I did. My bike broke.
Jake Shane
Oh, it says you walked here to raise money for a foundation for Pride Month.
Tucker Pillsbury
No, I walked her to audition for American Idol. So are you ready for me to sing?
Jake Shane
Yeah, give us whenever you're ready.
Tucker Pillsbury
Okay. You have a song suggestion for me?
Jake Shane
Oh, you're just supposed to bring one in, but whenever you're ready.
Tucker Pillsbury
Okay.
Jake Shane
Take your time.
Tucker Pillsbury
Please, please, please don't prove I'm right. Please, please, please don't bring me to tears when I just did my makeup. So not. Well, I. I'm sorry. I actually thought the first part sounded quite good.
Jake Shane
Yeah, that was awesome. It's. It's Jake, right? Yeah, I. I think that's awesome. I think you gave up on that song pretty easy.
Tucker Pillsbury
Okay.
Jake Shane
Could you give us just a little bit more of something?
Tucker Pillsbury
Okay.
Jake Shane
And really feel that because you have this rasp in your voice that I really like, and I want.
Tucker Pillsbury
She's raspy today. You ever see that? Have you ever seen that face up? You ever see the JoJo Siwa thing where she's like. Where she's like, whoa. They're like, oh, she's raspy today. Have you seen the Jojo Siwa cruise?
Mandy
Yes.
Jake Shane
Yes.
Tucker Pillsbury
Have you seen the JoJo Siwa cruise? No, that hasn't come across your desk. She provides us so much entertainment. What do you think about Hantavirus?
Jake Shane
I don't know what happened to that or something.
Tucker Pillsbury
I mean. Listen, let me tell you something. I am an expert in pandemics. I know how to. Because I used to play the pandemic play game on my phone. And I've seen Contagion five times.
Jake Shane
I just watched Contagion two nights ago.
Tucker Pillsbury
The best movie of all time.
Jake Shane
I know, but it really freaks me out because then I stop touching things.
Tucker Pillsbury
See, I feel like I'm, like, giving you stuff. No, I'm giving you Hantavirus. I'm singing, I'm dancing. I'm, like, doing a lot for you right now. What do you want to. Should we do the Tell me what's wrongs?
Jake Shane
Tell me what's wrong, Tucker.
Tucker Pillsbury
Don't even fucking play dumb with me right now. I don't even. Please.
Jake Shane
That's what I was asking. Do they still do that?
Mandy
Yes.
Jake Shane
Okay, let's do that. Let's do that.
Tucker Pillsbury
Oh, my God.
Jake Shane
Oh, my God.
Tucker Pillsbury
Whoa, Whoa.
Jake Shane
You are a handful.
Tucker Pillsbury
It's okay. I'm a kiss and teller. Like, sharing every detail with anyone in my life who. Listen, I know I probably need to stop or just slow down, but if it already. But it already caught back up to me. I saw this guy I hooked up with at the bar. I went over to his. Went over to him to say hi. And he was being super weird. I asked him what's up? And he told me that because I started yapping to everyone, it got back around to his girlfriend. Right now it's so messy. Because, like, we are also good friends. I just need prescriptions. No advice, please. I'm obsessed with her. She's like. I don't. I don't want any advice.
Jake Shane
I know. What does prescriptions mean?
Tucker Pillsbury
Hooker, please.
Jake Shane
Like, you, what she needs.
Tucker Pillsbury
But she doesn't go watch Marvel from start to finish. It takes up a lot of time. And I. I've done it. You got Captain America. You got Iron Man. He dies. You got. Who else? Spider Man, Ant Man, Wonder Woman. No, that's dc. Oh, okay. Guardians of the Galaxy.
Jake Shane
If you were in a Marvel movie, who.
Tucker Pillsbury
Who would I be?
Jake Shane
Yeah, I'm trying to think.
Tucker Pillsbury
I'd be Rwanda's friends in WandaVision that are, like, in psychosis.
Jake Shane
Like housewives. Like a housewife?
Tucker Pillsbury
No. Do you watch housewives?
Jake Shane
No.
Tucker Pillsbury
You haven't seen any housewives?
Jake Shane
No, I'm just. I was asking if her Friends are like, no.
Tucker Pillsbury
She like. You've never seen WandaVision?
Jake Shane
No.
Tucker Pillsbury
Well, I can't spoil it. It's, like, literally one of the best shows I've made.
Jake Shane
For sure. For me Again.
Tucker Pillsbury
Okay, so basically, what happened, you're not gonna get it because you don't understand vision.
Jake Shane
All right, forget it. Forget. Forget. I was just trying to spark a conversation and say, hey, what would your superpower be?
Tucker Pillsbury
Oh, what would my. My superpower? My superpower would be telekinesis.
Jake Shane
I always wanted talking. Yep, yep, yep. Oh, I wanted to do too.
Tucker Pillsbury
I wanted. I've always wanted hyper speed. I want to control stuff with my hands.
Jake Shane
Her.
Tucker Pillsbury
Like, that's what I always want to do as a kid. I would always try this way, like, you know what I mean? I kill myself. I want telekinesis. Telekinesis.
Jake Shane
Yeah.
Tucker Pillsbury
Watch Marvel Help. My boyfriend and I are talking about getting engaged. I'm so happy. I love him so much. But we strongly disagree on one thing. The ring. He is from a small town and believes that they are a waste of money and wanting a nice, expensive ring is vain. Idk why. But having a nice ring has always been something I've dreamed of. For context, he works at a very good job, so it's not like affording it would be a problem. Am I being shallow and materialistic, or is a ring something worth splurging on? Team Ring.
Jake Shane
What are your thoughts on marriage? Do you want to get married?
Tucker Pillsbury
Yeah.
Jake Shane
You do?
Tucker Pillsbury
Mm. Well, I haven't had a boyfriend yet. Still, that's something that.
Jake Shane
I know you're struggling with relationships currently, but do you have dreams of getting married?
Tucker Pillsbury
I want children. I want two babies.
Jake Shane
Do you want to be married?
Tucker Pillsbury
I don't know, but I know I want babies.
Mandy
You know?
Jake Shane
You want babies.
Tucker Pillsbury
Theodore Theo for sure, and Annabelle. Anna B. For short. Do you want babies?
Jake Shane
My dream has always been to have. To be a single father and to have a daughter and to raise a daughter by myself would be really fun. Her name's Winnie.
Tucker Pillsbury
You want to. You want to be a single father?
Jake Shane
I want a daughter that's ideally mine. And then I. I thank whoever had it for me. Maybe I give them, like, a surrogate. Maybe a Venmo. Yeah. Okay.
Tucker Pillsbury
Venmo surrogate.
Jake Shane
Shake their hand. Thank you. You can see her in a couple every once a year if you want. Maybe that'd be destructive for the kid, but it would. I just want to raise a child by myself because then you can kind of just like, mold them into your best friend. It's like your best friend and you. And it's like you. You know.
Mandy
Okay.
Jake Shane
I just think that'd be really fun.
Tucker Pillsbury
Three, two, one, Wall. Book wall. Three, two, one, Bookstore. Three, two, one, Bestseller. Three, two, one, Crime. Three, two, one, criminal. Three, two, one, Murder.
Jake Shane
That's just.
Tucker Pillsbury
I genuinely believe I am meant to be famous. I have no trained talents, no passion for any celebrity careers, and I hate the Internet. But I still have this weird feeling I was meant for something more. Is this just narcissism or a calling? A calling.
Jake Shane
So once again, I'm going to use this to.
Tucker Pillsbury
Yeah.
Jake Shane
Make it work. Do you like being famous more than.
Tucker Pillsbury
Yeah. Probably more than anything I've ever liked ever in my entire life.
Jake Shane
Yeah, I know.
Tucker Pillsbury
It's probably my favorite thing to ever happen to that.
Jake Shane
I feel that.
Tucker Pillsbury
Yeah.
Jake Shane
From you.
Tucker Pillsbury
Do you?
Jake Shane
I. What? There's. I think there's parts of it that I like, but I don't ever want to not be. Like, I don't want to not be able to do things because I'm famous. Like, I don't want to not be able to go places or do things. You have to find other things that
Tucker Pillsbury
bring you joy, my friends.
Jake Shane
Maybe you could get into fishing.
Tucker Pillsbury
I don't want to fish, friends.
Jake Shane
That's true.
Tucker Pillsbury
I like to cook.
Jake Shane
That's good.
Tucker Pillsbury
Okay. She's giving me a look. I have cooked in the past.
Jake Shane
Yeah.
Tucker Pillsbury
Have. Do you cook? Yeah. You cook? Like, meat and potatoes and rice.
Jake Shane
I'd like to. I want to see what you are like on dates. I'm so curious. Or.
Tucker Pillsbury
It's horrible.
Jake Shane
Maybe let's. Maybe we role play.
Tucker Pillsbury
Okay, that's fine.
Jake Shane
A date.
Tucker Pillsbury
Let's do that. Ready?
Jake Shane
So.
Tucker Pillsbury
So are you.
Jake Shane
Maybe. I'm already at the restaurant. Okay. Let me sit up for it. Oh, hey.
Tucker Pillsbury
Hi. I'm so sorry I'm late.
Jake Shane
Hi, Tucker.
Tucker Pillsbury
Hi. Hi. Sorry. I'm just a fucking mess. Jake. Nice to meet you.
Jake Shane
Nice to meet you. You spill my water when you.
Tucker Pillsbury
I'm like. Hi, Dover. Have you been here before?
Jake Shane
No, this is my first time. It's nice, though. They, like, made me, like, tape my camera on my phone.
Tucker Pillsbury
Oh, yeah? Yeah. They do that with people that aren't members.
Jake Shane
Are you. Oh, are you a member at the.
Tucker Pillsbury
Well.
Jake Shane
At this.
Tucker Pillsbury
Yeah. Yep.
Jake Shane
Nice. That's.
Tucker Pillsbury
Did you get a drink? Are you drinking?
Jake Shane
I definitely need one. Like, nervous, actually.
Tucker Pillsbury
Okay. What do you. So what do you do?
Jake Shane
I'm in finance, so I just.
Tucker Pillsbury
Oh, my God. It's gonna go so above my head. But, like, explain it. Try to explain it to me.
Jake Shane
So people will bring me numbers, and I will pretty much sort through those and make sure that everything is adding up correctly. But it's boring. I, like, I feel stupid. I should probably not even talk about it.
Tucker Pillsbury
No, continue. I think it's charming.
Jake Shane
I don't know. It makes good money and, like, I. I live off it, so it's fine.
Tucker Pillsbury
Do you feel fulfilled?
Jake Shane
I. Yeah, I guess so. I don't know.
Tucker Pillsbury
This is. Now you ask what I do.
Jake Shane
So what do you do? You're a member here. You must, like, make a million. You must make a million dollars.
Tucker Pillsbury
I. I'm an artist.
Jake Shane
You're an artist? Oh, like painting?
Tucker Pillsbury
Yeah, paint.
Jake Shane
How?
Tucker Pillsbury
I do a lot of, like, modernist art.
Jake Shane
Expressionism.
Tucker Pillsbury
I kind of just, like, black onto the canvas.
Jake Shane
That's.
Tucker Pillsbury
It sells.
Jake Shane
So cool. I feel like everyone's, like, digital artists now, and so it's cool that you, like.
Tucker Pillsbury
I think digital art is definitely cool. I wouldn't rag on digital art.
Jake Shane
No, no, I wasn't. Sorry.
Tucker Pillsbury
No, it's okay. It's okay.
Jake Shane
I wish I could start over.
Tucker Pillsbury
I'm like, we can start over.
Jake Shane
I feel like I'm saying this dumbest. No, not on the date. Dumbass. All right, I'm changing. Hey.
Tucker Pillsbury
Sorry I'm so late.
Jake Shane
Are you Jake?
Tucker Pillsbury
Yeah, I'm Jake. Nice. Nice to meet you. You heard? Soda water. Yeah, you know, do you drink?
Mandy
No.
Jake Shane
I do. I was just waiting for you. I didn't order yet, but do you drink?
Tucker Pillsbury
Such a gentleman. Yeah, I do drink.
Jake Shane
What do you. What is your drink?
Tucker Pillsbury
I mean, like, if I wasn't trying to impress you, I'd get a Red Bull vodka. But because we're on a date, I will get a dirty martini with vodka.
Jake Shane
Here comes the waiter right now.
Tucker Pillsbury
Oh, hi.
Jake Shane
Hello. Hello.
Tucker Pillsbury
What can I get you guys? You first.
Jake Shane
Shoot. Okay. I did not look at the drinks. Do you want to just go really quick?
Tucker Pillsbury
Can I get an extra dirty martini with Grey Goose vodka, please?
Mandy
Of course.
Tucker Pillsbury
And he'll do the same.
Jake Shane
Yeah, that's fine. Coming right up.
Tucker Pillsbury
Thank you. Do you drink vodka?
Jake Shane
Yeah, I do. I drink. I drink anything, really.
Tucker Pillsbury
Oh, okay.
Jake Shane
Yeah, I like.
Tucker Pillsbury
I'm not working finance. Yeah, I can tell. Yeah, I love it. I love. No, don't feel. I. I think it's interesting. My. My job is so, like, creative.
Jake Shane
Yeah. What do you. What do you do? Sorry?
Tucker Pillsbury
Oh, I'm an artist.
Jake Shane
Like.
Tucker Pillsbury
Oh, I. Well, not an artist. I sell art. I'm a gallerist.
Jake Shane
Oh, wow.
Tucker Pillsbury
Yeah, so I like, open galleries and I sell art. And, yeah, it's super fulfilling and interesting, and I love it. One day I. I tried to be an artist in my own right, and it didn't really work out. And I kind of just love being able to share other people's stories through art.
Jake Shane
That's really cool. I wouldn't have taken you for an artist, but then you do have, like, paint all over you.
Tucker Pillsbury
I know. I was just. I came from the studio.
Jake Shane
That's cool.
Tucker Pillsbury
Yeah.
Jake Shane
Where are the. Our drinks are taking forever.
Tucker Pillsbury
Diabetes.
Jake Shane
No. Oh, it's a nicotine patch.
Tucker Pillsbury
Oh, Okay.
Jake Shane
I need it, like, straight to my blood.
Tucker Pillsbury
Okay. What's your favorite painting of all time?
Jake Shane
Favorite painting? Geez. I'm like a numbers guy, so I don't even. The Mona Lisa. I feel stupid.
Tucker Pillsbury
Mona Lisa, too.
Jake Shane
Really?
Tucker Pillsbury
Yeah. Oh, that's 1, 2, 3.
Jake Shane
The Louis
Tucker Pillsbury
one. 1, 2, 3. Van Gogh.
Jake Shane
Let's continue with the day because we didn't really get. I want to, like, see.
Tucker Pillsbury
Okay, so ask me a question.
Jake Shane
Okay. So, like, well, also, our drinks never came. I thought maybe we were gonna get, like, poppies or something. I thought Props. Props team were gonna drink.
Tucker Pillsbury
Is here. Cheers.
Jake Shane
Can I have the papi?
Tucker Pillsbury
Of course you can.
Jake Shane
Just so I can have something. Ooh. I've never tried this one. This is awesome. Cool.
Tucker Pillsbury
Well, cheers.
Jake Shane
Oh, yeah. Cheers.
Tucker Pillsbury
Eyes. Or bad? Come on. No, I'm really ocd. Come on. Eyes.
Jake Shane
I'm just messing around. I'm, like, a funny guy.
Tucker Pillsbury
Okay.
Jake Shane
I'm so silly on dates.
Tucker Pillsbury
Oh, you even cheers me.
Jake Shane
No, but I was gonna ask, like, are you. Do you, like, go on dates a lot? I feel like I haven't been.
Tucker Pillsbury
I try to.
Mandy
Yeah.
Tucker Pillsbury
I kind of have a busy schedule, so it's like, I'm here, and then I'm there, and then I'm here, and then I'm there, and then I'm here, and then I'm there, and now I'm here.
Jake Shane
Yeah.
Tucker Pillsbury
What about you?
Jake Shane
I really, like, liked talking to you for the past, like, week, and I thought we, like, really connected on, like, a cool level. Sorry. I'm nervous and. It's cool. I just wanted to say, like, I'm really happy. Like, we finally got to get drinks. I know you're busy and stuff.
Tucker Pillsbury
We just sat down.
Jake Shane
No, no, I'm not. We're not.
Tucker Pillsbury
Oh, you're just thinking, oh, I'm. I'm. Yeah, I thought you were trying to and. No, it's okay.
Jake Shane
I don't know. I feel stupid now.
Tucker Pillsbury
Question. Shall we? So, what do you think of our date?
Jake Shane
That's good. I wanted to, like, really kind of
Tucker Pillsbury
see so we can continue on the date. I'm just, like, you're thanking me for my presence. You're not asking me anything about myself.
Jake Shane
I wanted to see how you would react to someone being honest to you and being like, hey, thank you for making time for this. Like, I really enjoyed talking to you, and I'm glad we're here. I'd love to go on a second date with you.
Tucker Pillsbury
You would?
Jake Shane
Yeah. But I just wanted to say I don't really, like, I'm not just trying to hook up. Like, oh, I probably wouldn't want to do that until maybe, like, our fourth date. Are you okay with that?
Tucker Pillsbury
Yeah. Let's get to know each other before we hook up.
Jake Shane
Be real.
Tucker Pillsbury
What?
Jake Shane
Be real.
Tucker Pillsbury
What do you mean?
Jake Shane
What would you do if I said
Tucker Pillsbury
that I'd be like, really? Am I that ugly that they don't want to kiss me until the fourth date? They're just making up at this point. Okay, that's what I would think. I'd be like, oh, my God, he didn't even want to kiss me.
Jake Shane
Maybe you should.
Tucker Pillsbury
I'm so open.
Jake Shane
Maybe you should be more open on your dates. And maybe that's not why you have. That's why you haven't found love yet. Okay, Tucker, Be more open to that. Maybe someone just wants to get to know you before they start.
Tucker Pillsbury
Start what? You missed it. It was really funny. You had to be there. You had to see it. You'll see it in the cut. Do you want to play pretended? In other situations, we play improv.
Jake Shane
Oh, yeah. Let's do some improv games.
Tucker Pillsbury
Okay. Shout out a place, everyone. So.
Jake Shane
So I'll have the sushi.
Tucker Pillsbury
I just took the last one. Why did I say that? I'm so sorry. You could have it if you want.
Jake Shane
It's just I'm allergic to literally everything else. I can only have rice and then, like, uncooked seafood. So I just. It's fine, though. Like, I. It's fine.
Tucker Pillsbury
Maybe the improv needs to just come to us naturally. Maybe the improv is the friends we made along the way. I was seeing Obsession, and the theater was packed. I swear to God, no one would shut the up. I didn't want to make a scene, so I left and told a manager.
Jake Shane
That's why I don't go to movies. I'm. I'm team her.
Tucker Pillsbury
She then came into the theater and stopped the movie, but this bitch walked in, like, right after me, and obviously everyone's already Complained and they booed me. What the is wrong with everyone? Why were you still in the theater?
Jake Shane
I know. Just leave.
Tucker Pillsbury
Just leave.
Jake Shane
I. I was with her until she went back to the theater. But I. I don't understand or whatever. I watch movies on my phone.
Tucker Pillsbury
Well, what.
Jake Shane
I watch every movie on my phone.
Tucker Pillsbury
You don't go to, like, a movie theater ever?
Jake Shane
No, I don't have a. I don't have a TV still. I don't have a tv and I have an iPad that's been in a box for a year and a half, so I just watch all my movies.
Tucker Pillsbury
Well, you would be very comfortable, but
Jake Shane
let me tell you. Have you ever watched Interstellar on your iPhone? Because it's amazing. No sound is perfect.
Tucker Pillsbury
Okay, well, I. Do you know that everyone had a bit of a scare because they thought. I pick. Was closing it. Just rebranded the cinemas.
Jake Shane
Ooh, I love.
Tucker Pillsbury
I pick.
Jake Shane
I don't know what. I don't know it.
Tucker Pillsbury
You know what an IPIC is?
Jake Shane
I don't know.
Tucker Pillsbury
It's a luxury movie theater.
Jake Shane
Me personally, I'll be watching that on my phone with the rest of us.
Tucker Pillsbury
I mean, I feel like people have televisions.
Jake Shane
I mean, I'm a people's person, so I'm just gonna check it out on my phone. I'm gonna watch a people's person too, on my phone.
Tucker Pillsbury
Have you ever seen Dune 1?
Jake Shane
Yeah, I saw Dune 1. I love doing two.
Tucker Pillsbury
I heard Dune 2 is amazing.
Jake Shane
It's great. I like it when he gets mean. He's gonna be really bad on the third one.
Tucker Pillsbury
Timmy.
Jake Shane
He's gonna be a bad guy.
Tucker Pillsbury
Really? Oh, I'm interested. He's the bad guy.
Jake Shane
Shaves his head.
Tucker Pillsbury
What?
Jake Shane
Shaved his head.
Tucker Pillsbury
He did. For the role.
Jake Shane
Yeah.
Tucker Pillsbury
He works so much. How did you like being on a movie set?
Jake Shane
I was very, very nervous on my first day. Like, haven't been that nervous in years. And then after the first day, it was like.
Tucker Pillsbury
Tucker Pillsbury, call time 6:30am My bag. Your bad.
Jake Shane
Walk in.
Tucker Pillsbury
Yeah. Hair and makeup.
Jake Shane
Hey. Hey.
Tucker Pillsbury
Just me again. Shooting movie.
Jake Shane
Yeah.
Tucker Pillsbury
You go through your. Your sides.
Jake Shane
I know, but like, I was. It was like. Then at that point, I was like, I know him. But the first day was, like, so scary. And then it was really fun.
Tucker Pillsbury
One last time I need to be the one who takes you home One more time I promise I. After that I'll let you go baby I don't care if you got her in your heart All I really care is you wake up in my arms One more time Oops I need to be the one that live tonight. Like, my hole is gonna split open.
Jake Shane
Oh, my God.
Tucker Pillsbury
Like, it's literally going to evaporate.
Jake Shane
Oh, my word.
Tucker Pillsbury
Like, you know, it's true, too. I'm so excited. I'm, like, sweating for it.
Jake Shane
Jake.
Tucker Pillsbury
Oh, my God. The next one.
Jake Shane
You know how long it took me to understand what Nick's in five meant?
Tucker Pillsbury
Do you want me to explain it to you?
Jake Shane
No, I know now. So what does it ask people? They're in game five.
Tucker Pillsbury
No, there's. It's best of seven. So if the Knicks won. So that's why people were like Nixon four. Because if they won the first four, they won four out of the seven games and they win the championships. But because they lost the third, then it became Nixon 5. No, but then people were saying Nixon 6, so. But it became Nixon 5 once they won the fourth game that I was at.
Jake Shane
It's like, I can't. I didn't know what it meant for a long time. And it was just. It was also so weird to see so many people all of a sudden, like, you caring about sports. I'm from New York all of a sudden. Where are you from in New York?
Tucker Pillsbury
Washington Heights.
Jake Shane
I think that's valid. I think that's hometown pride. But I just. It was, like, weird. It was just so weird all of a sudden, everyone cared about. Basketball is so strange to me because it's summer. Oh, yeah. Yeah.
Tucker Pillsbury
And, like, it's community.
Jake Shane
Yeah, Yeah. I just.
Tucker Pillsbury
Oh, my God. Let's all cheer and dance. It's like we're at a concert, but they're playing sports.

Jake Shane
Hi. I didn't know I was supposed to FaceTime you. Do I do that?

Oh, you can if you want, but
Jake Shane
I mean, I'm uncomfortable. I don't know.
Mandy
That's okay.
Tucker Pillsbury
Oh, my God.
Mandy
Wait, this is crazy. I. I feel like I submitted that years ago.
Jake Shane
So you keep them on hand?
Tucker Pillsbury
I don't know. Nolan pulled them out.

So nice to meet you. Oh, my God, I'm gonna cry. This is crazy.
Tucker Pillsbury
I'm so happy. You're so happy. I'm so happy.
Mandy
Oh, my God. This is. You're the. Oh, my God. I don't even know what to say.
Tucker Pillsbury
Well, how's your day going?
Mandy
It's good. I literally was just telling my friend that I was manifesting going to meet you in New York City.
Tucker Pillsbury
Oh, my God. Wait, are you from New York?
Mandy
No, I'm from Minnesota, but like, I. I'm going to New York to see Harry Styles in September. So I was like, I'm gonna manifest to see Jake. Well, now I feel really bad because Tucker called.
Tucker Pillsbury
He's upset.
Mandy
But like, this is crazy, though. I mean, like, how is his Bonner set? Was that amazing?
Tucker Pillsbury
Oh, my God. See, she's locked in. Tucker.
Jake Shane
I don't even want to talk to her now.
Tucker Pillsbury
Tucker, stop.
Mandy
Okay? He's being a diva, but that's okay.
Tucker Pillsbury
No, we've had nothing to talk about. This entire time has been dead silent.
Mandy
Oh, my God. Really? Oh, my God, that's so funny. Wait, this is so crazy. This, like, just made my entire life. Oh, my God. This is insane. I wasn't gonna answer because I thought it was spam, because everything's spam nowadays.
Tucker Pillsbury
Everything is spam nowadays.
Mandy
Like, literally. It's insane.
Tucker Pillsbury
It's insane. Probably spam. You get a call, probably did this say probably spam. No, it didn't, but, like, right, because it's Nolan.
Mandy
Maybe it's like, I thought it was, like, my insurance agent calling to give me a quote, but, like, it wasn't, so this is even better.
Tucker Pillsbury
Tucker, tell her.
Mandy
You go ahead. Sorry.
Tucker Pillsbury
No, you go ahead. What were you saying?
Mandy
No, nothing. I mean, like, I'm just in shock. I'm in disbelief.
Tucker Pillsbury
Do you want FaceTime?
Mandy
I mean, like, I look like a bald eagle, but sure. Hi, Tucker.
Tucker Pillsbury
It's so nice to meet you.
Mandy
Even though you don't look that happy.
Tucker Pillsbury
Tucker, perk up a bit. Seriously.
Jake Shane
Why? Why did you react to him the way you did and not. And not me?
Mandy
Okay, I was gonna say because it's Jake Shane, but, like, also, it's Tucker. But.
Tucker Pillsbury
Wait, you want. Can I send you some caches?
Mandy
Yes.
Tucker Pillsbury
Wait, yeah, I'll send you some caches. That's my girl.
Mandy
I'm excited. If ever you want to come back to Mini, I will.
Tucker Pillsbury
I love you, Mandy. I love you.
Mandy
It's okay if I screenshot? Is that fine?
Tucker Pillsbury
Yeah. Say smile, Tucker.
Mandy
Okay. Okay. Smile. Okay. Thank you so much for calling. This was insane.
Tucker Pillsbury
Oh, my God, I'm so happy. Maybe we'll run into each other when you go see Harry Styles in New York.
Mandy
Yes, that'd be amazing.
Tucker Pillsbury
You want to give a little?
Mandy
Thank you so much. Oh, my God.
Tucker Pillsbury
This is crazy. Love you.
Mandy
Love you. Bye.
Tucker Pillsbury
I love her. Oh, my God. I got so excited, I dropped my cards. God, I missed that. God, I should start calling people more.
Jake Shane
How much time have we done?
Tucker Pillsbury
What are you thinking about? 3, 2, 1, FaceTime. 3, 2, 1, Kindle. 3, 2, 1, iPad.
Jake Shane
Thank you guys so much. My album comes out August 7th. Chuck timely in the hourglass. And I'm going on tour and hitting the road right after. I'll see you there.
Tucker Pillsbury
Wait, what did we learn today?
Jake Shane
I think people will use my name to get to you.
Tucker Pillsbury
I mean, Mandy came to my Minneapolis show.
Jake Shane
I think it's Shiloh. She didn't. She's never even been to my show.
Tucker Pillsbury
No, she said. She said, how was your Bonnaroo show?
Jake Shane
Yeah, she didn't see it. She wasn't there. She was asking how it was.
Tucker Pillsbury
Well, not everybody can get to Bonnaroo. If I could get to Bonnaroo, I'd go to Bon.
Jake Shane
Everyone can get to a Jake Shane show. But she could.
Tucker Pillsbury
Well, because I stop in every city.
Jake Shane
So do I.
Tucker Pillsbury
Really?
Jake Shane
Yeah, when I'm on tour.
Tucker Pillsbury
Okay, I'm sure you do.
Jake Shane
I'm just saying, don't trust everyone. I don't trust her.
Tucker Pillsbury
Don't trust anyone.
Jake Shane
That's what I learned.
Tucker Pillsbury
My girl.
Jake Shane
And you. And you got way. And you were way too into that too, that.
Tucker Pillsbury
I was excited.
Jake Shane
I know, but I saw you. You got hard from like, what?
Mandy
What?
Jake Shane
The excitement, like, did something to your.
Tucker Pillsbury
I'm gay. Half of this episode was about how I'm gay.
Jake Shane
Full body chills. You had like an adrenaline rush. And you're face was. I've never seen someone put their mouth so close to a camera. That poor girl saw your tonsils. I love you, Jake.
Tucker Pillsbury
I love you.
Jake Shane
Give me a big hug and thank you so much.
Tucker Pillsbury
Wait, you have to say bye.
Jake Shane
Bye.
Episode: Session 132 – "Role Model Strikes Back"
Date: July 16, 2026
Host: Jake Shane
Guest: Tucker Pillsbury (aka Role Model), Brett, Mandy
In this lively, emotionally candid, and reliably chaotic session, Jake Shane and returning guest Tucker Pillsbury (musician "Role Model") reunite for their third episode together—and their first since the podcast moved to Netflix. Joined periodically by Brett and Mandy, the crew dives into friendship changes, mental health, career shifts, fan interactions, and the weird, wonderful minutiae of daily life.
True to Therapuss form, the tone alternates between tongue-in-cheek banter and genuine introspection about change, confidence, creative pursuits, and the (sometimes overblown) drama of the internet. This episode features callbacks to past inside jokes and segments, and the affectionate, sibling-like dynamic between Jake and Tucker, complete with improv games, fake dates, and listener interaction.
Brett and Tucker reflect on their last month living together, expressing sadness and the surreal feeling of it ending.
Tucker discusses his "vintage shopping journey" beginning in Japan and via Depop, highlighting the obsessive thrill of finding unique pieces.
The group swaps nostalgic stories about watching Skins (which Tucker credits as changing his life), Hunger Games, and Entourage.
They debate modern TV exposition and how shows now overtly explain plot points due to social media distractions.
The "Three, Two, One" word game makes a return, showing how their friendship dynamic has evolved.
They role-play awkward first dates and explore how vulnerability and honesty can be misread in romantic contexts.
Improvled to plenty of silliness, like the on-the-spot creation of the Pride anthem “It’s Okay to Be Gay.”
Jake and Tucker share stories about injuries, chronic issues, and nervous habits, including Jake's diabetes, fainting on planes, and dealing with stress through fishing.
They swap prescription-free "advice" for listeners' messy relationship and engagement dilemmas—to mostly comedic effect.
Jake, on positive change:
“I just want to start by saying I’m proud of you. You’re a very hard worker. You’ve done so much more than make TikToks impersonating things.” (15:49)
Tucker, on America vs. Europe:
“I think I like America. And I know I’ll probably get in trouble for saying it…” (32:46)
On fan connection:
Mandy (listener): "This is crazy…this literally just made my entire life." (76:32)
On navigating fame:
Tucker: "I genuinely believe I am meant to be famous. I have no trained talents, no passion for any celebrity careers, and I hate the Internet. But I still have this weird feeling I was meant for something more. Is this just narcissism or a calling?" (59:29)
Jake (singing):
"Whoa, whoa, it's okay to be gay…" (44:28)
The episode is earnest, self-aware, and laugh-out-loud funny, full of meta-commentary about evolving friendships and internet culture. Jake and Tucker’s rapport is characterized by a willingness to embrace discomfort, share fears, and encourage vulnerability, while always circling back to mutual hype, absurdity, and genuine gratitude for one another and their audience.
Jake: “I think what we feel. What I feel right now is like…the first two were amazing and now it’s like…the third and it’s like, well what now?” (30:47)
Tucker: “Do you ever feel like, if all goes wrong, at least we have each other?” (50:55)
