Leslie Liao
You know, when I was doing the Ratchet era, we didn't pay for anything. We got a promo. We got a promoter room at a like the. Oh, even your room circus or what is it called? Circus Circus.
Esther Povitsky
That's not the flex.
Brett
Circus Circuses.
Leslie Liao
It was so much fun. Anyway, we got really drunk.
Brett
Circus.
Kyla
I see what you're saying when people at your shows have no teeth.
Esther Povitsky
What promoters are giving girls free Circus. Circus. Also, even if you were to pay for a circus, I'm sure it's like $80 a night. I'm sure you guys can.

Wait, Kyla, do you even know Leslie?
Brett
Of course.
Esther Povitsky
What the hell?
Brett
Yeah.
Kyla
How do you guys know each other?
Brett
We've done Tiger Belly.
Esther Povitsky
I did Tiger Belly a while ago.
Brett
And Kat does Tiger Belly.
Kyla
I know that.
Brett
I'm so jealous. Also, there are a few Asians that don't know each other. Right there.
Esther Povitsky
There must be. We should fix that.
Kyla
I'm so jealous.
Esther Povitsky
You should have them all together on the podcast and, like, surprise them.
Brett
I think we're all aware of each other is what I'm saying.
Esther Povitsky
Each other would be shocking. Like, at this point, I feel like I know all the same. All the heavy hitters.
Brett
Me too.
Esther Povitsky
Which I'm like, honored to know them.
Leslie Liao
If you're not a heavy hitter and you're like, oh, yike, sorry.
Esther Povitsky
But in my mind, it's like, Fumi Abe is a heavy hitter. Like, Fumi.
Brett
Yeah.
Esther Povitsky
Love Fumi. He's such a cutie.
Leslie Liao
Maybe a couple months ago, there was a picture that I think Fumi posted and it said, like, Asian mafia or something. Or I think it said something and it had, like, it had you and Irene and, like, all of that. I was like, that'd be so cool to be a part of that.
Esther Povitsky
It's a good group.
Leslie Liao
I got, like, serious. Like, I wish I was Asian in that moment.
Kyla
I Have that all the time.
Leslie Liao
I wish I was really.
Brett
I get that. I really do.
Esther Povitsky
I. Yeah, yeah, I see. I understand if people want to be Asian. Yeah, it's fun.
Kyla
Kalila, who do we have today?
Brett
Today we have two incredibly funny comedians. You've seen them everywhere. You've seen them on my other podcast, Tiger Belly. We have Leslie Liao and Cat Bird.
Leslie Liao
Hello. So nice to be here.
Brett
You know your Instagram handle fucks me up. Because in my head now I keep thinking your name is Re.
Esther Povitsky
Thank you for saying it because people aren't brave enough to say my IG handle. I had it before I started stand up is Resre Rial. So it's just like the Lululemon way to say my name. And every time I go on like a, you know, mid. Like, there's like these funny middle aged white guys who host these radio stations. They're like, please don't make me say your handle. Like, they just refuse to say Resre riel.
Leslie Liao
I know a lot of people that would love to say that.
Brett
Just like, phone me up.
Leslie Liao
And I was like, I'm doing it.
Esther Povitsky
Like, that's how I say it.
Leslie Liao
You're like, no, it's Leslie. They're like, no, it's not.
Kyla
Do you guys think there's any possible way that it's true that Lululemon is named that because they. It's anti Asian?
Brett
I believe it. I thought it was. I thought that was the truth.
Esther Povitsky
Yeah. The lore I heard behind it was the guy who made it was like, oh, it'd be funny if Asians had to say Ru Ru ramen every day. That's what I heard.
Leslie Liao
I hear that Lululemon gives you vagina cancer.
Brett
I.
Leslie Liao
Can I tell you about the vagina cancer?
Kyla
Why is it being cancerous? Because of the. It's like plastic material.
Brett
Yeah.
Leslie Liao
It's just in your vagina. Like, it's just like stuck up in there, I guess. And it's just not. That's my theory. I don't know.
Kyla
You just made this up.
Esther Povitsky
I'm spreading misinformation. I want us to really go for it.
Kyla
Lulu causes cancer.
Leslie Liao
I heard from one guy, I heard.
Esther Povitsky
From one man, we saw one IG post of like a graphic with no evidence. It's just like an. It's like an AI photo and it just says, like, Lululemon equals vagina cancer. And then now we're spreading it.
Kyla
I fall for those all day long.
Leslie Liao
I do too.
Esther Povitsky
All day. Yeah. I take them as truth.
Leslie Liao
Do you guys get like, targeted ads that are Kind of disturbing.
Kyla
Like, what you go.
Leslie Liao
Sometimes I get targeted ads that are like, are you coming out of prison? Like, a lot of them think I have, like, a criminal record and I'm like, coming out of and like, need support.
Esther Povitsky
What's the ad for? It's for lawyer.
Brett
Like, to. Oh, employment. Not to lawyer up.
Esther Povitsky
Oh, oh, a job.
Leslie Liao
You feel like you're out of prison.
Esther Povitsky
Employment for jobs.
Leslie Liao
And I've looked at the jobs and it's all like babysitting and stuff. So I don't know.
Brett
Oh, they take ex felons.
Esther Povitsky
Oh, you've gone as so far to apply for one of these jobs.
Leslie Liao
I'm just curious.
Esther Povitsky
So she's like. She has an interview after this. You're, like, really going for it? No, we're getting ads for, like, leggings and you're, like, getting work with children.
Kyla
I'll admit, I'm pretty shocked to hear that's what you're getting. Yeah, I don't know.
Leslie Liao
That's all about. Oh, Cat, I'm sorry.
Brett
I mean, you do. You know what? And I say this really sweetly. You do look like you could shit up. Like, you are like a very soft and sweet, but ex prisoner vibes like you ran that shit in there quietly.
Leslie Liao
Thank you. Kind of like a house of cards or something like that.
Brett
Yeah, I think so. I think like white collar crime.
Leslie Liao
Yeah, I think you have to be smarter for white collar crime.
Kyla
Not necessarily.
Leslie Liao
They've got all the big words in the white collar. It's like larceny and stuff.
Esther Povitsky
Oh, is that white collar?
Leslie Liao
What is larceny?
Esther Povitsky
Laundering. Money laundering.
Leslie Liao
See, you could be white collar crime person.
Esther Povitsky
Oh, thank you.
Leslie Liao
Yeah, I'm more like blue collar. I think I could be like stabbing.
Brett
Ice pick.
Leslie Liao
Ice pick.
Esther Povitsky
Oh, you'd be like one of my minions.
Brett
Yeah, yeah.
Esther Povitsky
Like, I'd be like CEO level.
Leslie Liao
Totally.
Esther Povitsky
Oh, I would love that. I could work from home. Yeah, yeah, that'd be nice.
Leslie Liao
I'll do admin.
Esther Povitsky
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Leslie Liao
Do filing.
Brett
I think you're all white collar. We already know that.
Kyla
Me?
Brett
Yeah, yeah. There's no stabbing in your body.
Kyla
Yeah, I don't have that. I think it's got to be coming from up here.
Esther Povitsky
Yeah, you're the mind. You make a phone call.
Kyla
Yeah, but you too, girl.
Leslie Liao
Just a look.
Brett
I think I'm both. I am, you know, I'm a switch hitter. What can I say?
Leslie Liao
Awesome.
Brett
Yeah, I think I can, you know, be pretty physical and murderous, but I can also think with my head.
Kyla
Do you guys know who has been all over my TikTok algorithm, which it's like, I can't believe this is happening. I'm just swooning. I'm swaying. Leonardo DiCaprio is doing press for his new movie. You know how we never see this man speak? We never see him in interviews. He is doing every interview on the red carpet, talking about his new Paul Thomas Anderson movie. He is so charming and smart and, like, this is your hot take.
Leslie Liao
He is hard up to go.
Kyla
No, no, no, no, no. Because we've been throwing him away.
Brett
We know we throw him away a lot.
Kyla
And you forget that. Like, sure, he's a great actor. That's one thing. But like, when you just see this guy talking and he's talking about, like, the business and he's just. I'm like, dying. I'm like, I don't care. Throw away.
Brett
Please don't do this to me. You cannot reignite my love for him because it hurt that. That. That flame burned for long inside me.
Esther Povitsky
Was it his. Just his dating thing?
Leslie Liao
Yeah, the headphones.
Brett
I think so. The headphones thing really took me out of it.
Esther Povitsky
I don't know about the headphones thing.
Brett
The lore is that, like, he wears head when he has sexual.
Esther Povitsky
I did not know this.
Leslie Liao
A lot of NDA side.
Esther Povitsky
He wears headphones, like, to. To listen to this podcast.
Brett
Podcast. Yeah.
Kyla
This is Tuesday Molly Fox models. It's pretty cool.
Esther Povitsky
Or noise canceling headphones.
Brett
Imagine that would be noise, I think.
Esther Povitsky
Just like, oh, I love. I'm a brown noise.
Leslie Liao
I'm a brown noise.
Brett
Really? Yes.
Esther Povitsky
Yes.
Brett
Wait, what's brown noise?
Esther Povitsky
So you don't like white noise?
Leslie Liao
Yeah, it's very shrieky.
Esther Povitsky
Yeah. So some people. If you're working or you need. Some people listen to music, sometimes they'll do, like, jazz in the background, but then white noise is a very, like, soft, comforting. It's just background noise.
Brett
Yeah.
Esther Povitsky
There's different colors. There's green noise for focus. There's pink noise for sleep, which I do for sleep. It's all on Spotify.
Leslie Liao
Yeah, Yeah. I haven't done pink noise.
Esther Povitsky
And then brown noise I do in the morning because I don't want, like, dead silence, but I don't want to listen to, like, like Hamas news and whatever, like, right when I wake up. So brown noise is just something to start.
Kyla
So you wait, you listen to the Hamas news?
Esther Povitsky
Yes.
Leslie Liao
Big fans. Or Hamas news.
Esther Povitsky
But it's like if you play the new. Which I want to. I do the five minute news just to start the day to be like, okay. I generally know what's happening? And then I can go do a podcast.
Leslie Liao
Oh, gosh.
Esther Povitsky
But then I also feel like I can't do a funny podcast first thing when I wake up because then I don't feel awesome. So it's a. It's a transition.
Leslie Liao
Yeah.
Esther Povitsky
Brown noise to school.
Kyla
I feel like you really have your life together based on.
Esther Povitsky
Is that how you have the news?
Leslie Liao
Do you have a TV in your home?
Esther Povitsky
I. I do, but all I do is I. I go to YouTube and I search coffee shop vibes and then I play like a 12 hour video of, like, an anime coffee shop with, like, a cartoon cat sitting next to it.
Brett
I get that. That's sweet. I like those.
Esther Povitsky
Yeah. So as I'm working, it's like, it gives me the vibe of I'm in a coffee shop.
Leslie Liao
I like that.
Esther Povitsky
I'm just very strategic with my sounds, and that's smart noise.
Brett
But you're somebody that can have background noise. I think that if I really need to get something done, I need pressure, I need to be sweating and I need absolute silence. It's like, it's game time. You're probably. You're turning in your homework late, and it's like, no time to play. If I hear a song, then I'm singing with that song, and it takes me out of it.
Leslie Liao
So this is why you could do blue collar crime. I feel like you're in it.
Brett
Yeah. In a way that I'm seeking excellence.
Leslie Liao
Yes.
Brett
And no sound can interfere with my path to excellence.
Esther Povitsky
I feel that you need to, like, dead silence to concentrate.
Brett
Yeah. Because I'm a procrastinator. I'm not someone that, you know, works two weeks ahead of time to, you know, like, do those people make you mad? They make me sad about myself.
Leslie Liao
Yeah. They make me sad, so I get mad.
Kyla
It's really weird that you guys think we're done talking about Leo.
Brett
Oh, yeah.
Kyla
Did I mention that he's charming?
Brett
What?
Kyla
Did I mention that his. His teeth are cute?
Brett
Did he never fix his teeth?
Kyla
They're just, like, weird.
Brett
Okay, you're really, really selling me.
Kyla
You don't even know what I've been so.
Brett
Did you not like when he spoke about the environment? Remember he had that whole document? I was gonna say, like, did you. Did that not titillate?
Kyla
You know, because he was, like, so formal and it was, like, really serious. And this. He's just like. He's, like, in a good mood talking to the interviewers. You can tell he really is promoting this movie.
Brett
Like, he must really love this pta.
Esther Povitsky
Like, why is it this movie?
Kyla
I think because it's Paul Thomas Anderson. It's gonna be, like, a huge movie. And I think the real kicker is that it'll be in theaters, and, like, people know how important it is to sell, to get butts and seats. And he's doing the dance, and I. I respect it. I respect my man.
Esther Povitsky
The thing is, like, I don't. You know, he dates the younger women.
Leslie Liao
It's like, I think you would.
Esther Povitsky
Well, like you. I mean, I. I'm out of his bracket. I'm way out of his bracket.
Kyla
But three, eight, you never know.
Leslie Liao
Like, for. For, like, that's positive, though. Like, you're.
Esther Povitsky
Yeah, that's fine. I'm not trying to.
Kyla
That. To just be friends with him. That's fine.
Esther Povitsky
Is that your goal?
Kyla
Yeah, we can just be friends. Leo.
Leslie Liao
Friends and Leo.
Brett
Gosh, I'm so angry that I might like him again.
Kyla
Oh, you're far.
Brett
It took so long to extinguish that flame.
Esther Povitsky
He's a banger actor. It's like, what am I supposed to.
Brett
He's the hottest.
Kyla
Honestly, Jack from Titanic in the Departed is where he's the hottest guy ever.
Esther Povitsky
Awesome. Yeah, awesome.
Kyla
Wait, okay, so I saw this study, and I want to know what you guys think. Basically, it said that, like, if one of your girlfriends tells you to cut your hair short, it could be a sign that she's, like, competitive and is trying to sabotage you.
Leslie Liao
My mom was telling me to cut my hair short.
Esther Povitsky
Is this an IG meme you saw or did you read an article?
Kyla
I will not be elaborating on study at this time?
Brett
Of course, A man and a man and a femininity.
Esther Povitsky
The study, aka a youth YouTube reel.
Brett
Yes.
Esther Povitsky
So I read a study, but my.
Leslie Liao
Mom always wanted to have my hair cut short.
Kyla
Well, that's probably because she didn't want to have to deal with cleaning it. Right.
Leslie Liao
Okay, well, now I'm thinking otherwise. Maybe my mom was competitive with me.
Brett
It must be a good sign that I've never had girlfriends say, cut your hair. They've mostly signed that you're ugly. It's a good sign that they're basic. They've only been like, hey, it's time for a trim, or whatever.
Kyla
Yeah.
Brett
But never, like, hey, go short or try this.
Esther Povitsky
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Kyla
I don't believe it.
Brett
Oh, my God. In high school, oh, we can bleep her name out. But this. She told my friend, oh, my gosh, these names. She was like, hey, had lashes like this, like this. And she goes you know, if you cut them.
Esther Povitsky
No.
Brett
That they'll grow double inside.
Esther Povitsky
No, she should be in jail.
Leslie Liao
She caught them smartest on her part, though.
Brett
But, you know, at this time, I. I think that she was just one of those, like, fawning kind of girls. Like, was like, so, like the hot girl. Like a Regina George type of thing.
Esther Povitsky
Where, like, you just listen to her.
Brett
But then I had the bigger tits and ass, so, like. And she was a little thicker, so the boys always, like, maybe gave her a little bit more attention.
Esther Povitsky
Yeah.
Brett
And so, yeah, she cut her lashes.
Esther Povitsky
And what happened to the lashes?
Brett
I don't think they grew back. I don't know.
Esther Povitsky
Actually. I don't know.
Brett
Thank God. Like, you shed your lashes, so new ones grow, but, like, for weeks, I'm sure she just had, like, blunt. Like, a blunt cut.
Esther Povitsky
She grows back. Any sticker, they just grow back as normal. But it's not like.
Leslie Liao
But she also had big boobs and a big butt.
Brett
Big butt. So maybe she has everything.
Esther Povitsky
I am jealous of her, though. Yeah, you can have lashes, boobs. I have none of. I have none of the three. I have. I have. I have hair, which is nice.
Brett
Hair is a huge.
Esther Povitsky
Like, I'm happy with this, but I got no lashes, no butt, no boobs.
Kyla
I think you should cut your hair.
Esther Povitsky
Really? Really. Really.
Kyla
That's what I was envy.
Esther Povitsky
So you're saying you're jealous?
Kyla
People are saying, you want me to cut my hair or what?
Esther Povitsky
No, you're doing. You're fine anyways. No, put that hat on. Put that cute little hat back on.
Kyla
I don't think I believe this. I don't know. I think it's, like, it definitely doesn't apply to me. In my life and the people that I know.
Esther Povitsky
Have you ever told someone they should cut their hair short?
Kyla
I think never, because I'm so pro long hair.
Brett
I don't think I've ever given people advice on their appearance. Like, what to do with themselves. Yeah, like, that seems a lot of, like, a lot of, like, too much observation in the wrong place. It's like, why am I looking at my homegirls like this? Like, yeah, yeah, real hot. It's fine.
Leslie Liao
Also, I don't know if I'm gonna give the best advice. I'm still trying to figure out, you know, like, my bra size. I feel like all the time it changes. Don't you feel like.
Brett
Can I tell you a really sad story about my tits?
Esther Povitsky
I'm not gonna feel sad.
Leslie Liao
You've got great tits. But.
Brett
Okay, so backstory. I used to have implants. They were double Ds. After a year, I took them out because I'm like, I hate these things. So I went back to being size a A cups, and then I got pregnant. And then they grew and I mean, they were like, up to here. And then breastfeeding up to here. Right. But you know what grew with them? My areolas. Dinner plates. Dinner plates.
Leslie Liao
Can you see them?
Kyla
I can't prove it. Liar.
Brett
And everyone, all the mothers out there are like, don't worry. When, like, you stop breastfeed feeding, they're gonna go back down. Your areolas will go back down. And I don't know how. I just can't foresee it. Like, imagine the sad part about all of this is that my tits are gonna go back down. But will my areolas go down with them?
Esther Povitsky
How have they changed since? Have you noticed a difference? Are they the same?
Brett
I'm still breastfeeding is why. So they're still big and, like, juicy.
Leslie Liao
Oh, God, they sound awesome.
Brett
Thanks.
Esther Povitsky
Can I ask us, what are you guys complaining about? What is this all feels like really positive. Juicy. Like, what the. I've. No one has ever described my breast breasts as juicy.
Leslie Liao
They.
Esther Povitsky
My breasts have stopped, like, physically. They look like eighth grade. Yeah, me too.
Leslie Liao
I feel like mine are anemic. That's what I would get. Like, oh, they're skeletor.
Kyla
Wait, Kyle, I have a serious but potentially offensive question, but it's just.
Brett
I'm projecting Asians.
Kyla
No, no, not today.
Leslie Liao
Let's talk about.
Kyla
Are you at all thinking about or considering like, one of those, like, post. Post mom surgeries where they redo the boobies?
Brett
I'm never gonna put anything in my body anymore.
Kyla
Not that, but, like, whatever it is that they do, because I have seen before and afters where they will, like, somehow, which sounds so gross to me, but, like, they'll make the areola smaller and they'll, like, lift, but don't add.
Brett
I have to really ask myself, like, who am I doing it for? What am I doing it for? Because going under anesthesia, going under some. That type of, like, really invasive surgery, like, I've done it before. I hated it, like, had long, like, healing time. So I would have to really consider what am I doing this for? Because are my. Are these new titties, like, fine? And, like, my partner's not leaving me. We're not leaving each other. We have a baby. Like, we're tethered together.
Kyla
Yeah.
Leslie Liao
And your body's beautiful.
Brett
Thank you.
Leslie Liao
It's just a new, like a new version of your body. How cool is that?
Kyla
You know?
Brett
But if I start to look in the mirror and it's really bringing me down where it's like, ugh, like I can't stop thinking about it, I might consider it.
Esther Povitsky
I think you're right. It's like, who are you doing it for? You only do it for you.
Brett
Yeah.
Esther Povitsky
Isn't that the idea?
Brett
Yeah. Yeah.
Leslie Liao
I've got tiny areolas.
Brett
Oh. They're kind of like little quarters. Okay.
Esther Povitsky
Goodness. Is that. Is that what's trending with areolas now? Like, is it. Do people like, Is there a YouTube targeted ad? Yeah. I don't know. What's the. What's the newest trend on.
Kyla
But. But I don't. I asked because I've gone through some changes as well, and I don't think I'm there yet. But I do wonder.
Brett
Tell me about the surgeries. Do they just like, bring him. Is it just.
Kyla
I don't know what they do. I've just seen before and afters and I'm like, whoa. They just like, like lift. They're small and it's like my ride kind of.
Brett
So that is. How do I say? Like, the idea sounds like something I would do. Because to go smaller and just never wear a bra is a dream to me.
Esther Povitsky
I love small boobies.
Brett
Small boobies.
Esther Povitsky
So nice.
Brett
No bra. It sounds like the. The best thing on earth. So if I. I think that if I see that they're just still heavy and like kind of inconvenient, I might consider it.
Leslie Liao
I like having small boobs, but every once in a while I'd like to walk into a bar and be objectified for boobs.
Brett
Can I tell you that this is what I thought I wanted when I got the double Ds. Yeah. Cuz I'm like, it's still my Vegas party era. Like, I still do Hakasan, you know, I still do pool parties. I still do this. There's some ratchet. These were my ratchet years. I lasted a year with those and I. The attention you think you want is literally like. It's gonna. It's the bane of your existence. It's so annoying. Cuz these dudes are so low caliber. The dudes that go for just tits are so low caliber, you don't even want to have a conversation with them.
Kyla
What is it even like?
Brett
It's so just like.
Kyla
They just stare at you.
Brett
Yeah. I remember going into Vegas and like, we'll bleep his name out, but like, this was playing.
Leslie Liao
He was objectifying you.
Brett
I literally got pulled to immediately to the side getting them tomorrow. I was there with. With Jenna.
Kyla
She's like, do you have those implants laying around? Can I recycle?
Brett
So, like, so I was there with Jenna, who has great tits but not the biggest. I was there with another gorgeous friend, but they didn't give a about my face. The guy was literally like, cherry picked me out. And he was like, hey, wants to, like, meet you. Like, let's stand behind, like, the DJ booth. And I was like, yeah, can I bring my friends? And he was like, no. And I was like, oh, it was sounding good.
Kyla
You are.
Brett
I can't even go, you know, like. Like, do this with my homegirls. It's just. It was. I hated it.
Leslie Liao
But was he nice?
Brett
I didn't go, oh, I wouldn't leave my friends.
Leslie Liao
Oh, that's.
Brett
Oh, would you?
Leslie Liao
I mean, yeah, yeah, yeah. Big. Big tits out. This is about to seduce me, you know, from here down.
Brett
But, yeah, I think they have those, like. What do they call? I mean, comedians. Sick comedian. Male comedians have them.
Esther Povitsky
The.
Brett
The people that pick girls out of the crowd.
Kyla
Oh, yeah. Kathy Griffin was telling us about that.
Esther Povitsky
Do they have a name? The people that pick.
Kyla
Pick a spotter.
Brett
Spotter.
Kyla
Kathy Griffin said that, like, her male contemporaries, like, when they would go on tour, would have spotters for her. No.
Esther Povitsky
Oh, God, I'm so naive. I didn't even know this word existed. A spotter.
Leslie Liao
I'd like a spotter just, like, all of his teeth.
Esther Povitsky
Or for, like, a random.
Leslie Liao
That's my God.
Esther Povitsky
To, like, a random guy in Tulsa.
Kyla
Wait, are you saying that if someone at your show has all their teeth, that's all you need?
Brett
That's your bar.
Leslie Liao
It's pretty low. And is it hard to find sometimes? Honestly, it's. I. I think I attract a weird. Weird.
Brett
Well, you're into all teeth. I'm into some missing.
Leslie Liao
Oh, cool. How about, like, a little gold bracket?
Brett
I love a gold bracket. I love dentures. I love a popping tooth.
Leslie Liao
Oh, my God.
Brett
I mean, Bobby has, like, six teeth left.
Kyla
What would your spotter be looking for?
Leslie Liao
401K success.
Esther Povitsky
What a financially successful man.
Kyla
Was that what her spotter is like in the back? Just googling every name that bought a ticket. So smart.
Brett
Yeah.
Esther Povitsky
Like, what's your job? Like, what's your background? Like, what can I see?
Leslie Liao
W2?
Esther Povitsky
The most successful. Like, yeah, I have physical types, but I also, like, I'm not single, but if I did have a. If I was single, it'd be like, who respects women? I don't know. Can you tell that from looking at someone?
Brett
No.
Esther Povitsky
Yeah, unfortunately.
Brett
Because you have. Unfortunately. The performative male.
Esther Povitsky
Oh yeah.
Brett
That's scary.
Leslie Liao
Scary.
Brett
I made.
Kyla
Wait, who is this?
Brett
What?
Leslie Liao
I don't know this person.
Brett
The performative male is usually a guy who is an ally to all things the LGBTQIA community. He talks about hot topic issues in a very informed way. He is. He's a feminist, but it's for show.
Leslie Liao
This guy sounds awful.
Brett
He. It's a costume. It's not really who he's. Deep down, he will verbally abuse you. He will treat you no different than the Republican pig that you know. He. It's all performance and scary.
Leslie Liao
I know a few people like that.
Esther Povitsky
It's all to like, get a girl.
Brett
It's all for optics.
Leslie Liao
Is he tall?
Esther Povitsky
Okay, she's not talking about like one specific guy. What are his initials? I think I him last night.
Brett
Who was this guy?
Esther Povitsky
Wait a second.
Brett
Because he didn't ask it like it was one guy. You were like, wait, I don't know him.
Kyla
Who is he?
Leslie Liao
What are you saying?
Esther Povitsky
We're not talking about like many men.
Leslie Liao
She's like, I wish you guys would.
Kyla
Just tell me who he is.
Esther Povitsky
She's like, is it cuz I, I him at TA in 2018? Wait, I love that you had a Vegas. I had a hardcore Vegas era.
Kyla
What?
Leslie Liao
Oh my God, me too.
Brett
Wait, what years did we. Did we crossover?
Esther Povitsky
20 to 32?
Brett
Yes. Okay. 32 was my cut off too.
Esther Povitsky
32? Yeah.
Brett
I mean, shoot.
Esther Povitsky
Have you, have you been to Vegas recently? Like post your Vegas era?
Brett
Can't do it. It's. I. I feel like a dark energy. I need to get the fuck out of that.
Esther Povitsky
Can I have a rebuttal?
Brett
Yeah.
Esther Povitsky
My non comic friends are like lawyers, doctors. They're. They have like houses and children and they're like, they. I don't belong with them. I don't know why they hang out with me. We recently went to Vegas in our like late mid-30s and did it adult style and it's lovely, like caviar and stuff.
Leslie Liao
Stuff.
Esther Povitsky
I don't know what you're saying, but my cav actually kind of. Kind of CUZ in our 20s, we'd go to a pool party with no table, no ticket. We just be hot girls and just be. Be spotted, be ushered into a table. We got our own cabana, Front row cabana for, you know, the DJ Fisher at Tow beach something. We had our own cabana. We ordered Sushi. We got like. Yeah, basically caviar. Yeah, basically California rolls. Whatever. You know, there were like, 22 year olds trying to even stand near our cabana.
Leslie Liao
That's so.
Brett
Did your heart break for them?
Leslie Liao
Yeah, I feel like.
Esther Povitsky
Actually, no. I told security. Can you tell her to not. She's dripping on my towel. Can you. And I literally, with pride, I go. She's like. There was, you know, drunk dudes, drunk girls.
Cash App Rep
Me.
Esther Povitsky
Yeah. And her little hat. Right through that, I was like. I was like, she disgusts me. Can you. I was telling. You know what I mean? Like, I paid to have people off my property. It was my cabana. These cabanas aren't cheap, dude. Republican in Vegas.
Kyla
Wait, how much is the command? I need to know. I'm from freaking out.
Brett
It's in the. What, like in the thousands.
Esther Povitsky
No, it's not.
Brett
Yeah, it was.
Esther Povitsky
It was 10 of us.
Brett
Because with the cabana comes the bottles. We had bottles in my day. One bottle and one shitty table off to the side was okay. So I can imagine the cabana on, like, a weekend is a weekend.
Esther Povitsky
It was a beautiful, sunny day. It was like 10 of us. We had the food, the service. You're the 1%. Yeah. In Vegas, I love to be the 1%.
Leslie Liao
That's great.
Esther Povitsky
And. And it's worth it. So I embraced that. And then we went to a restaurant, like a Jose Andres that I will.
Brett
I will say Vegas is great for. Because, you know, we go to Best Friend. We go to that one noodle place off the Strip. The food. Yes. I think what I failed to do the last time, because I did the shows, I did the food.
Esther Povitsky
Yeah. Yeah.
Brett
I. I need to revisit the pool parties as an adult.
Esther Povitsky
Yes.
Brett
I. I haven't done that. Like, my only memories of pool parties is like, literally, like a murky pool because everyone's like, oh, I don't. Stop putting jizzed on it.
Esther Povitsky
Yeah.
Leslie Liao
You don't go in the pool.
Esther Povitsky
No. You're in the cabana.
Brett
No, you're too. You were too grown to be in.
Leslie Liao
The pool of the pool.
Brett
You're gonna get, like, Chaga's disease there. It's not. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We don't touch the pool. I think you'll see it once you see it with sober eyes. You're like, I'm not going in there.
Kyla
Yes.
Leslie Liao
Whoa. I don't know. I still. I don't even go to restaurants in Vegas. I just eat at Starbucks.
Kyla
What? I remember that I actually, like, had a good Vegas hack, which was that I would go to a Chipotle and get, like, a single taco.
Leslie Liao
That's awesome.
Kyla
And, like, then your. Each meal is so cheap, but now it's like, they have all the best sushi places. They have everything. And it's all so close together, so I feel like you can really pack in so much. Whereas, like, in la, to go from. To get to, like, that fancy place would be like an hour of traffic.
Leslie Liao
Yeah.
Kyla
And in Vegas, it's just like a long walk, you know?
Brett
You really sold it to me. I.
Esther Povitsky
You should try it as an adult, dude. Treat yourself to the nice dinner, the nice cabana, one nice show, one. One clubbing night. And just go proper. Like, treat yourself.
Brett
The things I look back on now, which I. I think in re. I. I used to think, oh, my God, what a terrible thing I did. How ratchet, how unclassy was. You know, we would take our shoes off and you would. I'd be the girl stumbling out of the club because without the end of.
Esther Povitsky
The night 100, without the shoes.
Brett
And then for a minute there, I was like, ew. Like, that's not me anymore. But then I'm like, wait, we actually got to do that without cameras, without anything. Like, we had, like, the pure fun of, like, ratchet freedom.
Leslie Liao
Yeah, I can.
Esther Povitsky
I have no regrets.
Leslie Liao
Yeah, sorry.
Esther Povitsky
No go.
Leslie Liao
I've had too much coffee.
Esther Povitsky
There's, like, hardly coffee in that. It's just like. It's like pecan. Yes.
Leslie Liao
Like, you know, when I was doing the Ratchet era, we didn't pay for anything. We got a promo. We got a promoter room at a, like, the.
Esther Povitsky
Oh, even your room.
Leslie Liao
Circus, or what is it called? Circus Circus.
Esther Povitsky
That's not the Flex Circuses.
Leslie Liao
It was so much fun. Anyway, we got really drunk.
Brett
Circus. I see what you're saying.
Kyla
When people at your shows have no teeth.
Leslie Liao
What?
Esther Povitsky
Promoters are giving girls free circus Circus. So even if you were to pay for a circus, I'm sure it's like $80 a night.
Leslie Liao
I'm sure you guys do. They're like, just like, we got comped.
Brett
At the Excalibur.
Leslie Liao
But we went there, and they're like, okay, whatever.
Kyla
You just.
Leslie Liao
You can stay. You can stay at Circus Circus, but you have to go to our promoter shows, like, and, you know, be the hot girls at the show. So my best friend Robin and I, we, like, went to these shows, and one night, one of them was a brunch show. So we got super drunk, and we're like, we're gonna go to this brunch show, and we assumed that there was gonna be brunch there, but there was no brunch at the show.
Brett
Not at Circus Circus.
Leslie Liao
No, no. It was just, like, really gross. They had, like, caprice goldfish, Capri suns. And she said, like.
Brett
Oh, Kat, I feel like just for you, I want to redo Vegas.
Leslie Liao
Okay.
Esther Povitsky
I honestly think we should.
Kyla
For this conversation. We should cut this out. Hot.
Esther Povitsky
Do you notice how none of us are laughing and we're just very sad?
Brett
You're like.
Esther Povitsky
Because I don't know.
Leslie Liao
It was so much fun.
Esther Povitsky
Okay, so. So brunch, meaning it was the hours of brunch. That's what they meant by the brunch show.
Leslie Liao
Yeah. So we didn't eat and we came in, like, really? Because we were. We were thought we were going to eat brunch. So we were starving and we were.
Esther Povitsky
Like, we're going to go to a buffet breakfast.
Leslie Liao
We were like, ready for. For like, like, I don't know, canapes or something. And they didn't have anything. They just had, like, finger. They had. They had like, like gold. Yeah, like gold mix and gold fish.
Esther Povitsky
And then you went to a child's lunch. This is a child.
Leslie Liao
We got to stay at the Circus Circus. So it was like.
Kyla
Let's finish that sentence. Actually, don't.
Leslie Liao
Anyway, I. Okay, so.
Esther Povitsky
And you thought this was fun.
Leslie Liao
I was so much. I had so much fun. Come on.
Brett
Back in the street. I see what you're saying.
Kyla
It's like when you're rough in it.
Leslie Liao
Yeah.
Brett
Like the first time. Like think about the first or second time you went to Vegas before we figured out, like, the promoter issue, before we figured out that you could get comp. Doing it before you could figure out, oh, I can do this all for free. Before.
Esther Povitsky
Yeah.
Brett
Yeah. I mean, I found myself at Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville making out with some like, 50 year old dude from like, Jimmy Buffett. Yeah, Jimmy Buffett, basically. And you're right. Those were the most fun memories ever where it's like we're barely surviving. We don't know our next. Where our next meal we're going to eat. Coming. Like, we're trying to, like, we think we're hustling. We think we're getting like the one up on the Vegas Experience, but we're really just passing away slowly over the weekend.
Esther Povitsky
Totally.
Brett
No, I get that. And I do have fond memories of. Of. Of that. I get it.
Leslie Liao
But yeah, maybe a different. Maybe a little bit more elevated this time.
Esther Povitsky
Yeah. When you were saying. When you were saying you got comped. Like, me and eight girlfriends would go walk towards a club, like, and all the promoters like, okay, here's there's like eight hot girls who, they're not gonna buy a table. So they would just give us a bottle of vodka.
Brett
Yeah.
Esther Povitsky
And somewhere to sit.
Leslie Liao
Oh, that's awesome.
Esther Povitsky
That's what I'm thinking when I say comped. You just got a Capri sun at noon at the Circus Circus lobby. This is different.
Kyla
This is why we're different than you.

Something has changed this week and what is it? Are we doing an apple break instead of a banana break?
Esther Povitsky
How this is so nice. How exciting is this for you?
Leslie Liao
This is cool.
Esther Povitsky
Look a free app. Look. Is it a.
Leslie Liao
What kind of apple?
Kyla
I just want to give a shout.
Leslie Liao
Out to to Granny Smith. Honeycrisp oh honeycrisp.
Esther Povitsky
Is this sponsored by any apple brand?
Brett
Sponsored by Esther's love for only honeycrisp.
Kyla
Honeycrisp apples are the best apples.
Brett
Really?
Kyla
Yes.
Leslie Liao
Okay.
Esther Povitsky
Do you bite straight out of them or do you slice them up?
Kyla
I At home, I slice them and dip them. I gotta slice them up and yogurt and peanut butter.
Esther Povitsky
You couldn't pay me to buy them.
Leslie Liao
Are we allowed to eat them or are they allowed?
Kyla
This is supposed to be our fall themed episode asmr. So we need to get some fall going.
Brett
By the way, it's still 100 degrees outside.
Kyla
Guy, our producer is like, it's cold today. I'm like, don't get out of control.
Esther Povitsky
She was just referring to the AC in the room.
Brett
Can I show you guys what I had to do? Because I.
Leslie Liao
Show us. Are these. They can't believe these are natural.
Brett
Put this in my armpits because that's how hot I am in this sweater. In this fall sweater staring at my tits.
Kyla
Yeah, we have some fall games, right? What is going on? What do you have?
Leslie Liao
We have games.
Kyla
So we're doing a fall themed spelling bee.
Leslie Liao
How fun.
Esther Povitsky
So you're gonna say the word and I have to spell it?
Kyla
Yeah, these are. Ellie, do you think we're brain dead poor?
Esther Povitsky
Literally. It's working class.
Kyla
Okay, I'm going to say the word, then I'm to going. Going to give you the definition and then I'm going to use it in a sentence.
Leslie Liao
Don't look. You can't think.
Kyla
The word is butternut.
Brett
Oh, wow.
Kyla
The definition is a North American walnut tree bearing oblong fruit. And for dinner he gave me a butternut.
Leslie Liao

Brett
He butternutted in me that.

Brett
It depends.
Leslie Liao
Fun.

Fun.
Esther Povitsky

Leslie Liao
Oh, I'm thinking of a hydrangea. I love hydrangea.
Brett
I think it's hydrangea. Not.
Kyla
Hi, stranger danger.
Leslie Liao
Oh, okay. I actually would know how to spell this one. And this is.
Esther Povitsky
I think you're getting reader's ego. It's. Once you read the word, you're like, I know cornucopia. Everyone knows the cornucopia. Maybe, like, a little cornucopia.
Leslie Liao
Okay, someone's a little bitter about cornucopia.
Esther Povitsky
I'm really triggered.
Brett
All right.
Leslie Liao
Okay. Ready? Yeah. Okay. Macchiato.
Brett
Okay.
Leslie Liao
Oh, for the Italian word, macchiato.
Host
M a, she went.
Leslie Liao
Okay.
Brett
C, C, H, I, A, T, O.
Esther Povitsky
No, there's no H. There's an H. There is an.
Brett
There's an H. Is that two T's? No, it's one T. Girl, I love macchiato. Yeah, macchiato. I don't even drink coffee, but you have to know macchiato.
Kyla
What is a macchiato?
Leslie Liao
Now, here, let me define it for you. Espresso with a dash of frothy steamed milk.
Esther Povitsky
It's like a mint milk.
Leslie Liao
I would like a tall caramel macchiato, please. With all his teeth. Okay, I wish I never did that.
Brett
The word is coniferous.
Kyla
I've never heard that word in my life.
Brett
Like, think coniferous. Sorry, I might be saying it wrong with my accent.
Kyla
What is. I need the definition.
Brett
Okay, definition. It's of a tree producing cones and having leaves that do not fall off. In the winter.
Kyla
Okay, I've never heard the word, but.
Brett
I'm gonna try and sentence. Red squirrels live in coniferous forests.
Kyla
C O, N, N, I, F, E, R O, U, S. Whatever.
Esther Povitsky
Okay, okay, whatever.
Leslie Liao
I've never heard this word in my life. C O, N, R, F O, R.
Esther Povitsky
H, Q, A, T, R H. Okay.
Leslie Liao
But basically, we're actually. We're the.
Brett
Losing me and Esther, head to head.
Kyla
No, you guys.
Esther Povitsky
You guys go. I can't, I can't. I can't. Save it for the Patriot.
Leslie Liao
Why don't we do the medium level so you and me can do that?
Esther Povitsky
Okay. We're just gonna be in the parking lot.
Leslie Liao
Do you want Less Leslie and I to do it for you guys? Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Esther Povitsky
Oh, this is fun. So I read this. Oh, you.
Brett
You gave it to me first.
Kyla
Well, because I know I saw it.
Brett
Oh, yeah. Okay. Yeah, yeah.
Kyla
And it's.
Esther Povitsky
I'm just gonna say your word is persimmon.
Brett
I. This is.
Kyla
Ah, they're so good. I love them.
Brett
God. Okay, so here's where I. Can I explain My Jag. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Leslie Liao
Yes.
Brett
My Jag with persimmons. My whole life has always been, is it two S's or two M's? So don't tell me, but so in. When I think about the word, my natural thing is always to double the S and never double the M. So I think what makes persimmon difficult is that I should go against the grain and double the M. So my guess is persimmon. P, E, R, S, I, M, M.
Esther Povitsky
O, N. That is correct.
Brett
You nailed it.
Esther Povitsky
That is correct.
Leslie Liao
Oh, my gosh, that was cute.
Esther Povitsky
You go into it philosophical with it, like you examined your identity.
Leslie Liao
Yeah. And she's like, I'm going against the opposite.
Brett
I did these 90s when I was young.
Leslie Liao
You did. She's screaming, give it to me.
Esther Povitsky
Give it to me.
Leslie Liao
Mom is screaming. Jesus. Okay. The one thing I will say about a few of these words, they're not English words. Okay?
Brett
Right.
Leslie Liao
Macchiato Italia.
Esther Povitsky
Cornucopia. Greek.
Leslie Liao
That's actually.
Brett
Oh, I don't know.
Esther Povitsky
I just made that up.
Brett
Probably Latin.
Esther Povitsky
Cornucopia. Japanese.
Leslie Liao
Japanese. Okay. Esther Gourmand.
Esther Povitsky
Oh, wow.
Brett
Okay. Yeah.
Kyla
G O U r M A, N D. Kill them.
Esther Povitsky
You guys are like, okay, no one clap.
Leslie Liao
Next. Can we go to the loser rap? Leslie and I, we can start.
Brett
There's one more. We gotta keep going. I gotta.
Leslie Liao
I'm scared.
Kyla
Let's go, let's go.
Brett
One more.
Esther Povitsky
What does gourmand mean?
Leslie Liao
It means, like, a French foodie. Like, gourmand is the French word to eat.
Kyla
I think we should just settle it there.
Brett
Okay. Thank you.
Cash App Rep
You.
Brett
Well done. Everyone.
Leslie Liao
Everyone, good job.
Esther Povitsky
Sorry I yelled.
Kyla
One of our patrons has asked for some advice.
Brett
Fellow sluggies, please help me. I'm in need of some advice. My husband brought up the topic of an open relationship. I kind of knew this day would come because I'm the only woman he has ever slept with. And I know that people get curious. So I guess what I'm asking is, has anyone ever opened up their relationship? If so, how did it work?
Kyla
I wish Jenna was here.
Brett
I know.
Leslie Liao
Home.
Kyla
One of our good friends who's often on the show. She's gone. She's in a relationship now that has been open and closed and open and closed.
Esther Povitsky
Oh, it's. Oh, wow. I have never been in an open relationship, and I think I'd be horrible at it.
Leslie Liao
I have.
Brett
Yeah, tell us.
Leslie Liao
I'm pro. I kind of knew this day. This is. This is interesting because it's like. It feels like a fear because she knew this was. She knew was gonna happen. So it's kind of this. I think that layers it a little bit where it's like, she's been anticipating something like this happening. Now it's finally happened. I think if you love something, you gotta let it go, right? And then it, like, just let it. Enjoy the oats. And she can do that too, Right? I knew. So she.
Esther Povitsky
I don't know if she wants it.
Leslie Liao
Oh, okay.
Brett
And that's it. I think that's key. If you don't want it, you need to just not pretend that you want it. You cannot pretend that you're playing.
Leslie Liao
You can't make that person want to stay in that relationship if they want something, something else. Do you know what I mean?
Esther Povitsky
I'm gonna be dramatic and say, it's already done. Like, it's done. He. He voiced. It's open. If she doesn't want it to be open, he. And. And I don't blame him. He's only slept with one woman. Like, I. I get. I get his curiosity. It's like, totally so. Because he didn't go to Vegas. Yeah, he should have gone to Vegas. He didn't go to Hakkasan.
Leslie Liao
He didn't go.
Esther Povitsky
Every man. I'm telling you, all the young men listening. Go to Hakkasan this weekend. Weekend.
Kyla
Take your shoes off.
Esther Povitsky
Have some consensual relations.
Leslie Liao
Go to circus.
Esther Povitsky
Get it, get it. No, no, no, no, no. Don't listen to Cat, I'm telling you, do not listen to Cat. Don't go to Circus Starbucks. There is no at Circus Circus. What the hell? That's their. That's their. That's their slogan. We got no here, but we got a one Capri sun for each.
Leslie Liao
We got.
Esther Povitsky
But. But I understand his curiosity. It's. It's, like, almost fair. And she knew this was gonna happen. It's, like, already done. So you either have to, like, either let him be open, and then if you love him that much, let him do it, and then maybe he'll come back.
Kyla
I think that this is almost above the pay grade of those in the relationship, and it really is screaming to me, let's take this to a couples counselor, and let's communicate, and let's be like, here's.
Esther Povitsky
That's the right answer.
Leslie Liao
Here's how Circus Circus Pussy says.
Kyla
Here's how I. I really feel. Because for whatever reason, it's just easier to open up when there's a guided person there. And I think you could get really far in figuring it out, because right now, I don't have enough information to know how. And maybe you don't even. How serious is he about this? How serious are you guys about spending the rest of your lives together? I think there's so many questions that I think a good counseling session could.
Brett
Like, get into, even with a counselor, without getting too deep into my own shit, even with the counselor guiding you, it can still very much go awry. And I think with open relationships, if both people don't already have, like, a hundred percent. Like, if you're. If you're not already 100% in your relationship, if both cups aren't already full, if you're not, like, we're so down to for each other. I love this thing we have. You know, we're both kind. We have. We're both a little poly we both wanted to explore. If those two things aren't exactly equal with each person, there's gonna be issues no matter what. It's like, I don't care how therapized I am on any given Wednesday. I'm insecure, I'm wondering. I'm sad, I'm jealous. Like, those things don't, like, leave your body. Like, even if I can objectively be, like, I agreed to this, or I think this is what I want, we both decided this together. There's always gonna be some, like, level of. Of, like, unease about it, I think. And I mean, even with Jenna, like, I'm sure, you know, like, we've known her for so long. Like, they're back together in a closed relationship now, but during the open years, that was, like, painful.
Esther Povitsky
It was hard. Yeah.
Brett
Back and forth. Right. So it's hard for me to believe in a hetero relationship that, like, a truly open relationship can be, like, very, very, like, healthy and happy. And this is coming from, like, experience, I think that really does get murky and, like, sticky.
Esther Povitsky
I personally can't do it. Like, my brain can't handle it. I can. I give my all to one person. I can't, like, multitask emotionally.
Brett
Yeah.
Esther Povitsky
So I personally can't do it, but I totally get how it can work for some people.
Brett
Like, you know, polyamory. Like, it does work for some people where it's like, there's eight people in a relationship. Right.
Kyla
Faith.
Brett
And you're, like, eight years old.
Leslie Liao
They're like, dude, this person gotta talk about it all.
Esther Povitsky
They're texting.
Leslie Liao
There's so much talking.
Esther Povitsky
Are they all in a chain together? Maybe? Or they do that.
Leslie Liao
They do this thing called table. Table service or table side or. It's not table service. What is that? Right. But it's like, where you sit down at a table.
Esther Povitsky
Yes. Guacamole.
Leslie Liao
You sit down at a table and, like, you have to talk about your feelings always. Like, there's a lot of talking.
Kyla
That sounds like a concert.
Brett
Sounds so exhausting.
Leslie Liao
That sounds awful. I mean, you're just like, wait, how.
Kyla
Do you know about this? And why isn't that a reality show?
Brett
And, Kat, you never told us about your experience with it.
Leslie Liao
My experience? It's kind of, like, right now, actually. So I. So I. Currently, my. My husband and I. We split. Yeah. I'm single, but I'm kind of in, like, a few open relationships. But it's very fine for me because I don't want any type of relationship. Relationship, so. And I don't feel tied emotionally. But if I was in a different point in my life where I was like, maybe, you know, not coming out of a marriage, I think it would be more complicated because I'm just. I think we are humans. We feel these emotions. And if I, like, maybe. And when I. When I have sex with someone, no matter what, I feel tied to that person. I. I don't have that. Like, I wish I was like, a dude in a way where you're just like, you know, like, oh, I've just.
Esther Povitsky
And then I tried.
Leslie Liao
I've tr.
Brett
Me too.
Leslie Liao
I've really tried to be like, oh, the cool. Like, I'm just a cool Guy.
Brett
But there are those cool gals. Like, I have girls in my.
Leslie Liao
For everyone, really.
Brett
Girls in my very close circle. Like my. Some of my best friends where they will just have fun sex and like. Like, they're like, I never want to see that person again and leave it there. I'm like, I'm so sensitive. It's like, I have to know that he, like, liked what I had to say that. Like, he liked.
Host
Like, I.
Brett
Or else, like, I can't even get, like, horny, I guess, in a sense. Like, I can't, like, feel horny for someone who doesn't, like.
Esther Povitsky
I know. I. Oh, yeah.
Brett
I don't think they like me. Like, like, me, like me.
Esther Povitsky
I tried to be the cool in my 20s, like, hook up with someone and not care. But then every time I would hook up with a guy, I'd be like, why don't you want to hang out with me? Like, I'm so rad.
Leslie Liao
Yeah.
Kyla
Yeah.
Esther Povitsky
Like, what's wrong with you? And then I would be inside me. And then when they would text me, I would get excited. And that's like, okay, now it's over. Because now when they text me and I get, like, excited, you get your.
Kyla
Little dopamine hit so mad.
Leslie Liao
And then for someone just like that.
Kyla
Game that women and everybody gets addicted to, where you like a guy and he's fucking situation shipping, he's breadcrumbing you.
Leslie Liao
I was in one of those recently, and that guy sucks.
Brett
How did you eventually get out of thinking, like, I care about any morsel he throws my way?
Leslie Liao
I just got the ick from him. Event like that. That the. The ick. He, like, one time he, like, he tried to hold my hand, but he started, like, petting the inside of my hand and just. And he had, like, these weird fingers. I don't know. I get weird with fingers, like, if they're too feminine and like.
Brett
Oh, yeah, I get that.
Leslie Liao
Like, I like a guy that has.
Esther Povitsky
Like, you know, chunky hand.
Leslie Liao
Yeah, that's, like, had, like, work. Like he's done work. Like lumber. Like, he's worked with lumber.
Brett
I gotta say that the ick is a gift from God to women because the relief I feel, it's our instinct is we're protecting. But imagine, like. Okay, so like, there's been situations where I'm like. Like I'm really in some type of, like, emotional turmoil over someone. And then one day I see, like, like a silhouette of their hips, and then I'm like.
Leslie Liao
And then I.
Brett
And then immediately, like, you. You can Never go back.
Leslie Liao
It's done.
Brett
It's almost like gun God gives you a direct answer. It's like, here you go.
Esther Povitsky
This isn't the right analogy, but it's like a skunk has the smell to protect us, so.
Leslie Liao
Yes.
Esther Povitsky
Yeah. Or isn't it? I don't want to spread misinformation, but isn't it true?
Leslie Liao
Like, no.
Esther Povitsky
Everything I've said is right and true. Please. You post everything. But there's a gasoline. Is it true that the smell of gasoline is added. Yes, in order to protect us? Because I think it's actually odorless. Someone fact check me.
Leslie Liao
I love the smell of gasoline, though.
Esther Povitsky
Me, too. Yeah, that's why we're toxic. We go after the guys who smell like gasoline. I believe it's originally odorless, but obviously we shouldn't be interacting it in our bodies, ingesting it, whatever. So the smell is put in there to make us go, oh, oh, no, no, no. I have to stay with you.
Brett
So the reason I think that this is correct is because.
Esther Povitsky
Am I wrong?
Brett
That's snap.
Esther Povitsky
Awesome.
Leslie Liao
Wait, I was so into this, though.
Esther Povitsky
Wait, no, this.
Brett
This has to be true. Because I snapped at my partner because the gas range was on, and it was. I. The whole apartment smelled like gas, and I was like, oh, my God, we're all gonna die. We're gonna die. We're gonna die. And he was like, no, that's an added scent to warn you that the gas is on. But then now I should fight him again, because apparently that's not true. So that is the smell of Benzi.
Leslie Liao
I love it.
Esther Povitsky
I like the smell of gasoline.
Leslie Liao
I love it.
Esther Povitsky
But I think you're right. Like, the. The ick is a gift from the universe.
Leslie Liao
It's so good. It's like the opposite of oxytocin, which, like, connects us.
Kyla
It's like when you're playing a board game and you're losing and you get, like, that magic card that lets you get out of jail. That's like an ick.
Esther Povitsky
It's like saying, esther, don't be this person.
Kyla
Yeah.
Leslie Liao
Okay.
Esther Povitsky
Get out of this game.
Leslie Liao
Should we say our icks, which would what. What they are?
Kyla
I have an anti ick for you.
Leslie Liao
Okay.
Kyla
I have a flex for you because you like hands. My husband has this autoimmune condition called, Tell me. Juvenile idiopathic arthritis. It's like the same thing as rheumatoid arthritis, but he gets mad when I call it that because it's more complicated, but so his hands are, like, kind of mangled and disfigured and it's so hot.
Leslie Liao
I love it.
Kyla
That's a great, like, the way that he talks. Like, he can't.
Leslie Liao
This is so up.
Kyla
Like, he can't move his wrist. And he's so insecure about him. Like, Dave, you don't understand.
Leslie Liao
Like, bring those hands to the room.
Kyla
Like, his hands are like this. I don't know. It's so hard.
Esther Povitsky
So when he talks, he. We all motion with our hands.
Kyla
He can't, like, do this physically, but.
Brett
You know how great it is. He doesn't need to do that because wrist on a man is nick.
Kyla
I know. That's what I'm saying.
Brett
He's constantly like this. This is. This is a great thing, Dave.
Esther Povitsky
This is power. I'm displaying power.
Kyla
It's literally so hot. And he doesn't understand. I'm like, no.
Leslie Liao
I love it. So he's, like, trying to drink.
Brett
I mean, it's better than bouncing around like this.
Kyla
I know, right?
Leslie Liao
That's not homophobic.
Brett
Feels like sexuality aside, just generally on men and women, I'm not into the bouncing risk.
Kyla
I. I will never see my husband do this.
Esther Povitsky
There's people that, like, he gives a kid.
Kyla
That will never happen to me the way that.
Esther Povitsky
So lucky. You know, like how people run what they do with their hands. There's like, people next to me on a treadmill who literally run like this, and I just throw up and leave. I can't. I'm like, you can't do that.
Leslie Liao
I don't know what that's about.
Esther Povitsky
It has to be your hands. I'm not a pro. You can fact check me. It has to be a rhythm, and your hands have to be up, and you shouldn't make a fist, but it shouldn't be.
Brett
So.
Esther Povitsky
So when you're running, like, you don't want to do this, right?
Brett
I just want to.
Leslie Liao
You also don't need this. This feels like crazy.
Esther Povitsky
Wait, Now I'm scared. This cuts through the air faster if you make your hands thinner. Yeah.
Leslie Liao
This reminds me of a Terminator. You remember the. The, like the metal guy?
Esther Povitsky
Why did he run so fast? Because he kept it fucking slick. Yeah, he got to be slick with it.
Brett
Well, this is a very sore subject for a 1 Ms. Esther Povitsky over here. Because running is hard for you.
Kyla
Oh, yeah.
Esther Povitsky
I like running.
Kyla
Right? Running.
Esther Povitsky
It's okay to not.
Leslie Liao
Yeah.
Kyla
He never run, though.
Esther Povitsky
You'd never allow it.
Kyla
I would never run.
Esther Povitsky
Yeah. Running isn't for everyone, but it's.
Brett
I think it's fun and Also like your knees, you cannot even be at an angle. Right. Running is like upright. Apparently. I've been looking into the mechanics of running because I'm pigeon toed. So like my knees like it's just, it's a funny, it's a funny look. But I always thought running was like launching forward and apparently it's this upright motion.
Esther Povitsky
Yeah, it's about like the steps and the pace of your steps. Like your steps have to be correct quicker and I think it's not. I think.
Kyla
Are you supposed to run up?
Brett
Yeah, like knees up.
Esther Povitsky
I'm scared.
Kyla
Yeah.
Leslie Liao
And you also have to have tiny little shorts.
Brett
Tiny little shorts. That's with like. No.
Leslie Liao
Cuz all the guys.
Esther Povitsky
It'll bunch up into your crotch.
Leslie Liao
Yeah, but none of the guys have underwear when they. Have you noticed free balling out there?
Esther Povitsky
They have what in there?
Kyla
They have little crotches on the shorts.
Leslie Liao
Oh, okay. Cuz I'm like. I don't think there's anything.
Esther Povitsky
I'm actually garden fascinated with. With what happens to a man's crotch during the run.
Brett
I think it just. Well, I think because it vaso. The rest of your body vasodilates and it pulls the blood away from when your blood vessels expand.
Leslie Liao
Smell it.
Esther Povitsky
V A S. Really?
Brett
Yes.
Esther Povitsky
Can you say the word again?
Brett
Vasodilate.
Esther Povitsky
V A S O D I A L. Flip it.
Brett
What? D I L A T E. It's not dilate, it's dial.
Esther Povitsky
My God, you're right.
Kyla
I was with you. You have a spike champion on your side.
Brett
You're thinking dialysis now you're thinking dialysis.
Esther Povitsky
I am, I am. Which is. Which is dial like the. Hello.
Brett
But I think that what happens, correct me if I'm wrong men, because I don't have balls myself that your blood goes to the. Your peripheral. Everywhere else but your balls, guys. So like your balls actually stay high and tight with the. You run and they don't like just you know, jingle.
Esther Povitsky
Explain how your balls work to us, please.
Leslie Liao
That's why when you stop running you get super horny. Cuz all the blood goes to your balls again.
Esther Povitsky
Is that true?
Leslie Liao
We slow down and all the balls go.
Esther Povitsky
All the ball. All two of them? All of them.
Brett
Wait, what is it? We're not even letting the man speak.
Leslie Liao
I haven't measured but I feel like you've got to be right because there's not a lot of like sway in or right on hitting against your leg or anything like that.
Esther Povitsky
They're just pretty stationary.
Leslie Liao
Yeah, you never see balls swinging around up There.
Brett
I just don't think. I think that God thought this through because he favors men, and I know he would never let a man carry, like, big, heavy balls on a rock.
Esther Povitsky
He makes it convenient for him to run for his.
Brett
But for us, the balls go up.
Esther Povitsky
Yeah.
Leslie Liao
I wish our labias did that. Wouldn't that be fun? If they just like.
Brett
I think that they do because technically, your labia is the same skin as a ball sack.
Leslie Liao
Yeah. So they. Oh, so you think they go up there? Because I have big labia, so I.
Brett
Feel like you have to, like, do the tuck in sometimes.
Leslie Liao
Yeah.
Brett
Yeah, that's fun.
Kyla
I just can't do the ball sack. I gotta go.
Esther Povitsky
No, no. Yeah, let's not do that.
Brett
Yeah, no more.
Esther Povitsky
We didn't help. We didn't help the girl we went right into. How did we. When you run, fellas, literally, she's like, my marriage is falling apart. Like. So when guys run, it's, like, really tight down there. Right?
Brett
You're right.
Esther Povitsky
So here's a solution. The four of us will fuck your husband this fall. Circus coming to you this fall.
Brett
Butternutting to you this fall.
Leslie Liao
We're going to circus.
Esther Povitsky
We will show him that he's better off with you. We will. The four of us.
Leslie Liao
Yeah. Fuck this guy.
Esther Povitsky
Give him an honest.
Leslie Liao
But this guy's. I mean, he said, no, no, no. I'm sure your husband's a nice guy, but you got it.
Kyla
I mean, he.
Leslie Liao
I bet you. I bet she's really pretty. I almost should go out there and do her own thing.
Esther Povitsky
He's being honest.
Kyla
Maybe there's ways that you can, like, role play or. I don't know, maybe there's creative ways.
Brett
No, I think that there's. I hate this. Like, I'm being honest, so I might. I'm. I'm correct. I think that there's people who are so cruel with their honesty. They. They trick you by thinking their honesty is somehow this, like, superior. Like, it's not. It's like, I know where it's like, you know, the radically honest people, but what's his alternative?
Esther Povitsky
So it's his alternative is. Keeps this feeling inside.
Brett
No, no, I think that it's right that he is expressing it and, like, honking the horn and saying, hey, this is how I feel. But I really think he needs to. That's his wife. That's something that. That's a commitment. He also needs to honor how she feels. And if she's like, hey, I'm not ready. I'm not that there yet. He should listen to her.
Esther Povitsky
I think she needs to honor how she feels.
Leslie Liao
Totally.
Esther Povitsky
Because she should not listen to us anyways. Yeah.
Leslie Liao
Yeah. I don't know. Definitely not me.
Esther Povitsky
Yeah, not me.
Brett
Don't beg, though. Don't beg him to stay. Don't beg him not to stay.
Leslie Liao
The power I feel, there's just, like. There's a power dynamic.
Kyla
Okay, wait. A little bit of a topic switch, but just you saying, like, the honest friend. It's so weird to me because I have seen that and experienced that. This is a. I'm like. I feel like I'm so stupid for thinking this is a huge surprise, but, like, the person who's like, I just am always honest and I have to be honest. I'm like, why is that the person that's lying?
Brett
Red flag, red flag, red flag. As soon as someone is like, I'm.
Kyla
A truth teller, it's like.
Brett
It's like, but you're lying. Did you just.
Kyla
I know you're lying.
Brett
So what?
Leslie Liao
So you're the.
Kyla
It's like such a.
Esther Povitsky
You're thinking of a specific person right now, and I love this, but I.
Brett
Think we all have that one specific person in our lives who just thinks they're. They're so high and mighty.
Leslie Liao
Yes.
Brett
Because they are operating from a place of radical honesty. And it's like, no, you're just a cruel. I didn't ask for your unwarranted advice or opinion. You're just launching them at me, and I don't want to hear it.
Leslie Liao
Yeah.
Brett
I hate. I hate that shit.
Esther Povitsky
Those people make good, like, reaction reality.
Brett
Stars, but not good friends.
Kyla
Great reality stars.
Esther Povitsky
Yes. Yes. I tell it like it is.
Kyla
Yeah.
Esther Povitsky
It kind of hurts my feelings.
Leslie Liao
You know when someone says, cut your hair. Yeah. When someone's like, I'm not the one. You know what I mean? They're like, I'm not the. I feel like I am the one.
Esther Povitsky
What's the one, though? What is the one?
Leslie Liao
Because, like, people say, like, I'm not the one when they're like.
Brett
Like, you're. You're not mess with. Don't mess with me. Yeah, I'm not the one you're gonna mess with.
Esther Povitsky
Oh, I've said that. Yeah, I feel like I've said that. I.
Leslie Liao
That I feel like you are you. I think everyone here is. I'm not the one, but I think I am the one.
Esther Povitsky
You are the one to.
Brett
With.
Leslie Liao
Yeah.
Brett
Yeah.
Leslie Liao
I'm the one that's like, okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, sure, whatever. You can come with me.
Esther Povitsky
I'll take It.
Leslie Liao
I'll take it. Yeah, totally.
Esther Povitsky
Oh, my God. Like, because you're not a big confrontation.
Leslie Liao
Yeah, no.
Esther Povitsky
Which I get. But also, like, it's. It's normal to not love confrontation, right? Like, healthy, totally normal.
Brett
I don't think I know myself in that way. I always say that I'm a people pleaser and that I don't love confrontation. But I think there have been many examples in my life the past couple years where I actually. I was talking in therapy and my therapist was like, no, you're the enforcer. Like, you are a people pleaser, but up to a point when you feel, like, genuinely wrong, like, you have no problems telling someone, like, hey, this is not okay, and I don't like that. And like, fuck you. But it takes me a long time to get there.
Esther Povitsky
Yes, yes, yes.
Brett
Yeah. Because I can't in real time tell them, like, fuck you. I need, like, process same time. So it's like two weeks.
Leslie Liao
You ever do that on accident where you, like, tell someone how you're doing in real time and it's a total mess.
Brett
It's a mess.
Leslie Liao
It's a mess. You're like. You're like, cry. You start crying.
Brett
Then you're just embarrassed. You spend the whole night, like, why did I say it like this?
Leslie Liao
Thought that through a little bit.
Brett
I hate that feeling.
Kyla
All right, guys, on that note, we can spell. Some of us.
Brett
Some of us.
Esther Povitsky
A L, I, L, F A, I.
Kyla
