At Etsy, every sign of spring is a reason to celebrate. Warmer weather means you can swap that parka for a handcrafted linen jacket or sip your coffee outdoors in a hand thrown mug. Shop spring pieces on the Etsy app.

What's up, guys? Welcome back to Views. Today we have Jason, Natalie, David and Alex. I'm a little bit under the weather, so forgive me if I sound a little nasally. Natalie's also here. Just got back from the er, Jay.

[Naveen]

What?

[David]

Yeah, Emergency room Natalie. We went to the. We. I don't think we ever talked about this, because it was. Natalie hasn't received her diagnosis as of the last podcast, but I think she has one now. Obviously, we know Natalie visits the hospital more than the regular human.

[Natalie]

It's not true.

[David]

I mean, it is.

[Naveen]

When's the last time she's been to the hospital?

[David]

I meant like the doctor.

[Naveen]

Sorry, the doctor.

[David]

Yeah, the doctor.

[Natalie]

Oh, okay.

[Naveen]

She goes to the hospital. She go to the doctor a lot. Yeah.

[Natalie]

I love the doctor.

[Naveen]

Are you blowing the doctor?

[David]

So what happened is we had a long travel day, 30 hours, got back from Bali, blah, blah, blah. You know the story. Long travel day.

[Natalie]

Yeah.

[David]

Then we had the Snappy Awards. And then we get back and we're at the house, we're sitting on the couch, and Natalie's like, I can't see you. And I'm like, what are you saying? She's like, you're really blurry. And Natalie obviously, like, throughout the day will say things to, like, throw me off to be like, she needs to go nap. Like, she'll say things like. Like just to get out of work.

[Naveen]

Crying wolf.

[David]

Yes, she'll cry wolf a lot. So I thought this was another situation.

[Natalie]

Not true at all.

[David]

I'm like, you always say weird stuff like what when you want to leave.

[Natalie]

Like what you'll be like when it's like 8 o' clock at night.

[David]

You know very well that if you say you're sick around me that it's

[Ellie]

going to get you out of work.

[Natalie]

Oh, for sure. But I'm not saying that, like, every day.

[Ellie]

Yeah, but you know when to use

[David]

it because you're smart about it. You're obviously. You don't want to overdo it because you don't want me to call you out on it, but I thought this was one of those moments where.

[Natalie]

Well, let's not, like. Let's not do that.

[David]

Okay. Well, I was actually. I'm getting to the point where I was wrong, because she went. So what happened? Your eyes were. You couldn't see me, actually. You couldn't see me or, like, your contact was blurry.

[Natalie]

Your face was just like a blurry blob of, like, pale skin. Like, I couldn't see your eyes.

[David]

That's how a lot of people would describe me.

[Natalie]

But, yeah, I couldn't see, like, your. Like, I couldn't distinguish the features of your face. It was just, like, fuzzy. It was like, fuzzy and, like, staticky almost.

[David]

And this happened in a moment as you were standing there?

[Natalie]

Yeah, because I was, like, fine at the Snappies. And then as soon as we sat down here at the couch, once we got home, like, it was just like.

[David]

Do you think that it was from a broken heart? Because at the Snappy Awards, I didn't thank you.

[Natalie]

That was fucked up.

[David]

I think that's.

[Naveen]

Maybe you didn't thank Nat.

[David]

I just didn't. I didn't have, like. I didn't have, like, time.

[Natalie]

How did you not thank me at the Snapchat Awards? Like, let's be fucking real.

[David]

I was just so, like. All I was thinking about was the. Was the team Snapchat. So I just didn't have. I also didn't think Taylor. And Taylor's, like, the main Snap queen for me. So, like, I fucked up. When I got home, Tay was like, did you thank me? And I was like, so I.

[Ellie]

Yes.

[David]

I apologized to Taylor.

[Natalie]

I'm sorry. Who is the thumbnail on your Snapchat every single day? Whose ass is being barren, born. Whatever the fucking word is.

[Ellie]

I should think Corinna, too.

[Natalie]

Corinna.

[Naveen]

I like to thank Natalie's ass.

[Ellie]

I wanted to thank Natalie's ass, but Natalie was like, please don't. Please don't fucking make a joke about that. I was like, why?

[David]

It's so funny.

[Natalie]

No, for the people that get it. Yeah. So we were just sitting there, and then I just. I couldn't see David anymore. So I was like, you know, I think I should just go to bed. I think my body's, like, telling me, like, I've had enough. So I just go into the guest room.

[David]

Here.

[Natalie]

Cause I can't drive home, obviously. And what'd you do?

[Naveen]

You went to bed?

[Ellie]

I went to bed.

[Naveen]

Okay.

[Ellie]

But then I woke up at.

[Naveen]

Around, like, had a mother's intuition at what's wrong?

[Ellie]

I woke up dizzy, and I was like, I can't see.

[Natalie]

Shut up.

[David]

Yeah, I swear to God.

[Ellie]

And I called our roommate Julia, and I was like, I need one of those Zofran that you have. Like, something's going on. I can't distinguish reality between. Between, like, my dream. I was very confused. She gave me her Zofran. I was like, okay, before I go to bed, I'm gonna see if Natalie's still here, because she slept here. And I check. And her location.

[Natalie]

Checking in on me? Yeah, yeah, just a little midnight check on my location.

[Ellie]

I checked your location at, like, 2am and her location was pinging, like, Cedar Sinai or the hospital, the emergency room, like, specifically. And I'm like, oh, my. I start texting her. I'm like, hello? What happened? And I didn't notice. I have, like, our group chat muted. Cause we're always texting in there. And then in the group, like, an hour before, Natalie texted, hello. I need to go to the hospital. Is anybody up? So she's been in the. She's been at the hospital for an hour now. And luckily, Alex was up. Alex, how did you. What happened? How did you.

[Alex]

Well, first she texted, is anyone up? I thought, like, she wanted to hang out, and I was excited.

[Naveen]

Everyone's going to get together midnight.

[David]

Yeah.

[Ellie]

Yeah, that would be sick.

[Alex]

And then I was like, yeah. And then she calls me, and she's like, I need to go to the hospital.

[David]

All right, let's go.

[Ellie]

How was she? Did she actually seem like she was in pain?

[Alex]

Yeah, she was, like, shaking uncontrollably. Like, could barely open her eyes.

[David]

Wow.

[Ellie]

Holy.

[Natalie]

I was, like, full on crying.

[Ellie]

Yeah.

[David]

Well, no, it's weird.

[Alex]

I never saw a tear come out, but, like, really making the crying sounds in the face.

[Ellie]

Yes, because I. I FaceTime. Then I checked Alex's location because I saw that he was also. That he was responding to in the group chats. I'm like, maybe he took her when he was in the hospital. So I FaceTimed him. And the funniest part is I FaceTimed him. I FaceTimed Alex. And he was. He was wearing. He was wearing an oxygen tank around his.

[David]

Around his nose. And I'm like, what the fuck?

[Ellie]

Like, is this, like, a contagious thing? Like, did I get.

[David]

Did I get what everyone like, yeah,

[Ellie]

Did I get what Natalie has now? Alex, you don't.

[Naveen]

You don't know what reality you're in.

[Ellie]

Yeah. I'm like, why does Alex have an oxygen tank over him?

[David]

And apparently what happened? This is really funny.

[Ellie]

It's like.

[Alex]

And I didn't even look at it. But when they gave her the iv, I started feeling kind of funny because I really don't like needles.

[Naveen]

God, the men of today, man, your generation is fucking.

[David]

So funny. So funny.

[Naveen]

Hopeless.

[Ellie]

No, the best part of that story was Alex got really dizzy standing next to Natalie's bed. So dizzy where he had to take a knee. Like, he took a knee in the spot. And what did the doctor think?

[Alex]

And the doctor thought I was praying for Natalie.

[Naveen]

Wow.

[David]

Did he say. What did he say?

[Ellie]

And.

[Alex]

Well, I was taking a knee.

[David]

How did you know?

[Ellie]

How did you know that he thought

[David]

you were praying for him? Well, cuz then I got up after

[Alex]

taking the knee and I was like, my eyes were fluttering. I was kind of like not walking straight. And he was like all from seeing a needle. And I don't know, I guess I was maybe a little dehydrated.

[David]

I don't know.

[Alex]

And then he put me in the

[Ellie]

bed and gave me an oxygen thing

[Alex]

in my nose and put the heartbeat monitor on my finger.

[Ellie]

And he was like, oh, I thought you were praying. Yeah, that's really funny. That's really funny.

[Natalie]

The best part, like, they started like injecting me with all the stuff. The iv?

[Naveen]

Yeah.

[Natalie]

And my eyes are closed. I can. I can't open my eyes. And I just hear. All of a sudden I hear like six doctors in the room with. And I. So I open like one of my eyes a little bit and I see Alex on the corner of my eye crawling into the hospital bed. And I'm just like, oh my God, we're all dying. Like, this is like some contagion is happening. We're all going out. And I just. I just sat back, I just closed my eyes and I was like this. And just like, just. I just. Just took it.

[David]

Yeah.

[Ellie]

So I FaceTimed Alex. I saw he had the oxygen mask. I was like, what the is going on? And at the same time I'm talking to him, all I hear is on the side is Natalie going, yeah, like crazy sounds.

[Natalie]

Oh my God.

[David]

Like real. Like, you know, like this, Like, God bless it. But the emergency room is one of

[Ellie]

the scariest places ever.

[Naveen]

Yeah.

[David]

And Natalie was just like the perfect

[Ellie]

white noise for what the emergency room is like, just like. It is so terrifying. You're there and there's like eight different illnesses going on at once.

[David]

And it's.

[Ellie]

Everyone's like, either first or last day with the illness.

[Natalie]

Yeah.

[Ellie]

Like, you just don't know.

[Naveen]

I'll got sick just walking in the door.

[Ellie]

Yeah.

[David]

I don't know how doctors operate.

[Naveen]

Oh, very tough job.

[David]

I just don't get it. How are doctors not getting sick?

[Naveen]

How are they not getting crazy immune systems?

[David]

Yeah.

[Ellie]

So.

[David]

So is it like the first couple weeks you're a doctor, do you just get like. Is that. Do they call it like the early doctor syndrome? Like, is there a name for when doctors first become doctors where they're getting everything in the book for the first year?

[Naveen]

Sure.

[David]

You got to be getting sick when

[Naveen]

you're interning for the first time.

[David]

Yeah. You got to be getting every week.

[Naveen]

Yeah, maybe.

[David]

No or something. Probably there's 30 fucking diseases that come through there every fucking two hours.

[Natalie]

Yeah.

[David]

How is that? If I saw Natalie coming in, especially like a younger person where it's feels like it would be more contagious than not, and she's going, I'd be like, I need a Hazmat suit to fucking tackle this.

[Naveen]

Doctor looks at Alex. He's like, okay, you're a pussy. I figured it out.

[David]

Yeah, that was really, really.

[Naveen]

Wait, so, Nat, what was wrong with you?

[Natalie]

Yeah, what was so I had an aura migraine.

[David]

An aura?

[Natalie]

That's what they said.

[Naveen]

Oh, damn.

[David]

You were losing aura or gaining aura?

[Natalie]

It was my aura. My wrist.

[Alex]

You had a passion migraine.

[David]

Losing passion, losing passion.

[Naveen]

Never heard of an aura migraine.

[Natalie]

Yeah, it's like, it's just like a, like, I think the most severe version of a migraine where you start or farming.

[David]

You start or you start or farming at the earth.

[Natalie]

No, you just like, you lose your vision and like the pain is just like so immense. I don't know.

[Naveen]

And you were just overtired and dehydration.

[Natalie]

Overtired. Stress.

[Naveen]

Why are you.

[David]

Why are you looking at me?

[Naveen]

And being on the plane is not great.

[Natalie]

Yeah.

[David]

Oh, you know what? It was her first time sitting economy in a while.

[Natalie]

I'm telling you, I was stressed.

[David]

That's crazy. I wonder if that's what gave us stressful. Dude, Natalie was texting me from. From economy because there was like. No, I don't know.

[Natalie]

Okay, this makes me sound bad, but I haven't flown an economy in, like a really long time.

[Naveen]

It is tough to go back.

[Natalie]

I mean, not like economy, domestic. Yes. But like, this was an international 16 hour economy flight, which I have not done in a long time.

[David]

It's so crazy because, like. Because, like, to say that is. Is so funny.

[Natalie]

So stupid.

[David]

Yeah. Like. Like, no one's gonna be like, oh,

[Natalie]

you poor 16 hours.

[David]

Like, no one's gonna do that. Everyone's gonna be like, you got to travel 16 hours. Like, but. But it was.

[Natalie]

I was fine. Like, I made that decision, you know?

[David]

Yeah. But it was really. It was really funny, the text that I was. I can't even scroll back because they were so far, but she was just, like, threatening to sue. She was gonna sue the airline because of her seat. And I'm like, natalie, there's other people there. It's like. It's. You're completely fine.

[Natalie]

The problem with where I was sitting, I thought my sister was gonna be next to me.

[David]

Yeah.

[Natalie]

And then the ticket agent put her, like, in the other side of the plane. So I'm with this. Like, I was. It was. There was a large woman next to me for the 16 hours, and I'm in the window. Like, I'm, like, so claustrophobic. I didn't move for that entire 16 hours. So that probably did contribute to whatever, but I don't know.

[David]

She said.

[Natalie]

She said, you had to see my seat, dude. My. My. I was sitting upright, and my knees were, like, touch. Were touching the seat in front of me without me even doing anything.

[David]

Like, it's so small. And Natalie said this. These are the texts. These are the texts. She goes, this seat is criminal. I go, show me. She goes, no. I go, please. She goes, I'm gonna have a panic attack. Shut the fuck up. I said, show me, bro. She goes, goodbye. I'm not going on these trips unless it's a reasonable seat. This is fucked up. I'm second to last row. I'm row 65.

[Natalie]

I was second to last row on the plane.

[David]

I barely fit in my seat. I can't even imagine being even two pounds heavier. I said, bro, show me the seat. Are you middle? She goes, no, I'm window.

[Ellie]

At least.

[David]

I go, oh, that's nice. She goes, my sister is middle, but not next to me. My row is full. I said, why doesn't she switch? Then Ellie goes, I'm next to mom and a kid. I need a tranquilizer. My knees are touching the seat in front of me. That's how small this shit is. This bitch lied to me. I'm gonna cry. And I go, I gotta see the seat. And then in all seats, she goes, there's no seat to see, you dumb fuck. I can't even bend forward to put my head down. She said, how the fuck is this shit 3K? I mean, she's going like crazy. She's like, I'm gonna sue. Why is this plane so small? And then she goes, my old job used to fly me private. I said, yeah, to Lake Superior and back she goes, aspen, babe.

[Ellie]

Aspen.

[Natalie]

She's a nanny.

[David]

She was a nanny. So she used to fly private. Right.

[Ellie]

But to like go to Knott's Berry Farm, you know.

[Natalie]

No, we would go to like Aspen in Florida and like fun places.

[Naveen]

I did business to Boston. It was incredible.

[David]

Yeah, business is life changing.

[Naveen]

I mean, I couldn't believe it. It was only $250 more.

[David]

Really?

[Naveen]

I got some deal. I don't know.

[Natalie]

Yeah.

[Naveen]

And I went by first and I was like. And then I saw business. I was like, I don't even need first.

[David]

Well, that's a hack. Wait, hold on. What are you talking about? Like, I walk by first, you in. In the United States, if you're flying domestic, 90% of the time, first class is the same as business once you get on the plane.

[Naveen]

This was three sections, right?

[David]

Oh, you sure?

[Naveen]

Yeah.

[David]

Oh, okay.

[Naveen]

100%. First you'd have your own seat, your own pod. Then the second section is business. I had a guy next to me. It was fucking great.

[David]

It's a big difference.

[Naveen]

And you still lie down first.

[David]

And business, if they have, is a big difference.

[Natalie]

Yeah.

[Naveen]

I don't think paying for first is worth.

[David]

No, it's not. It's like you disagree with me. It's usually like, no, no, I agree with you. It's like 10, $12,000 of difference sometimes.

[Naveen]

Yes.

[David]

It's fucking insanity. Economy. Economy on a 16 hour flight, even if you never do it, if you. It's. It's really difficult.

[Natalie]

It's really hard.

[David]

It's really. Do it in the middle. I did see this guy. He posted a TikTok. He's like, wish me luck, I'm flying 16 hours in middle seat. And all the comments were like completely against him. They were like, fuck you. This is so stupid. This is so easy. But it's not easy.

[Naveen]

Yeah, but when you're young and small, it's easy. When you're old and big like myself, it's really tough.

[Natalie]

Yeah, I agree. Also, I was extra upset because the gate agent told me that my sister and I had the row together. That's why I moved all the way to the back of the plane. Cause we had this open row. And then she didn't even put my sister Next to me, I was next to some other family that, you know, it was just.

[David]

Well, now you can. When you board planes, you can say you have a medical reasoning for why you can't sit economy. Could be like, last time I sat economy.

[Natalie]

Tell the plane. I'm telling.

[David]

I got an oral migraine. If this happens again, I may die. I need to. I need to be upgraded to business class.

[Natalie]

I'm telling you, brother, because when you book my flights, they're going to be fucking business. Okay, I have to tell you, I

[Hulu Advertiser]

was just looking on ebay, where I

[Natalie]

go for all kinds of things I love.

[David]

And there it was, that hologram trading card. One of the rarest, the last one I needed for my set.

[Natalie]

Shiny, like the designer handbag of my dreams. One of a kind. Ebay had it. And now everyone's asking, ooh, where'd you

[Liberty Mutual Advertiser]

get your windshield wipers?

[Naveen]

Ebay has all the parts that fit my car. No more annoying, just beautiful.

[Natalie]

Millions of finds, each with a story. EBay. Things people love.

[Naveen]

We gather here tonight to bring women back to their rightful place.

Okay, so, guys, currently in the room right now is.

[Rick Steele]

Hello.

[David]

I'm gonna describe him, and he's gonna reject this, but it's Ilya dressed as a. Ilia. Yeah. Okay, sit down and don't yell into Mike.

[Rick Steele]

Can you not say I'm Ilya? Okay, I've told you a hundred times, I hate that asshole.

[David]

Yeah, it's Rick Steele.

[Rick Steele]

Rick Steele's the name.

[David]

So it's. Ilya has, like, the second personality he does on his channel.

[Rick Steele]

And if you say Ilya one more time, I'm gonna walk out.

[David]

Okay, I'm not gonna say. I'm not gonna say it again.

[Rick Steele]

Where's my beer?

[David]

Jason has it.

[Naveen]

You can't have it by the podcasting equipment.

[David]

Give him the beer so he's comfortable. Okay.

[Naveen]

Please don't put any there.

[David]

So this is Rick Steele. He's my friend's alter ego, and he actually hates gym legend. He hates Ilya.

[Rick Steele]

Hate him.

[David]

And. Which is really nice because you'll see this in the vlog, but when we were Going out. When it was going on in Brazil, Ilya refused to come out with me. And I was like, please come out with me. Please come out with me. Please come out with me. And he's like, I'm going to bed.

[Rick Steele]

This is so boring.

[David]

And then Ilya went to bed, and then Rick Steele came out and came out with me and drank with me and did everything.

[Rick Steele]

I'm ready to drink now. You ready to go?

[David]

So Ilya doesn't.

[Rick Steele]

Come on.

[David]

So Ilya doesn't drink, but Rick Steele drinks.

[Rick Steele]

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.

[Naveen]

Don't frick. Don't fucking put the Corona by the

[Rick Steele]

hands off of me. You almost equipment co host.

[Naveen]

This is my life source this road. Please, please, please.

[David]

Rick, how do you feel about economy versus business class?

[Rick Steele]

I'm economy versus business.

[Naveen]

Yeah.

[Rick Steele]

Currently I'm poor, so I don't really have an option, but economy. So that's where I sit. I mean, honestly, I'm even lucky enough to get on the plane.

[David]

Right.

[Naveen]

Have you ever thought about suing the airline?

[Rick Steele]

Yeah. No. Why would I do that now?

[David]

They wanted to sue the airline because she had a set. Economy what? Yeah.

[Natalie]

No, I didn't. Stop spreading rumors.

[Naveen]

You were just speaking out of turn and you were. I don't get it.

[Rick Steele]

Why would you sue?

[David]

That's a funny title for the podcast. Suing. Suing the airline for sitting economy.

[Natalie]

I was just being funny. I was trying to entertain David. I wasn't actually thinking those.

[David]

Yeah, okay. So my friend Ilya has a girlfriend.

[Rick Steele]

Yeah.

[David]

Does Rick have a girlfriend?

[Rick Steele]

No. What do you mean? Does Rick have a girlfriend?

[David]

So Rick can go out and hook up with as many girls as he wants. How does that work? What's the vibe there?

[Rick Steele]

That's the vibe.

[David]

So you, Rick, wouldn't have to ask Emma, Ilya's girlfriend, for permission?

[Rick Steele]

Rick and Ilya are two completely different people.

[Naveen]

Right.

[David]

Okay, okay. I'm just making sure.

[Rick Steele]

Would you ask Jason for permission to hook up with a girl?

[David]

No.

[Rick Steele]

Exactly.

[David]

Right.

[Rick Steele]

I'm so drunk right now.

[David]

Yeah. Has Rick hooked up with a woman?

[Rick Steele]

I don't talk about that.

[David]

Okay.

[Rick Steele]

In public. Well, I'll tell you in private.

[Naveen]

Have you hooked up with a man?

[Rick Steele]

Yeah. I heard you guys are going somewhere tomorrow.

[David]

Oh, yeah, yeah. We're going to Coachella.

[Rick Steele]

Can I come?

[David]

Oh, my Lord. You want to come to Coachella?

[Rick Steele]

Yeah, it seems like it'd be a good time.

[Naveen]

Why are you saying oh, my Lord?

[David]

Because we're shooting.

[Naveen]

Yeah.

[David]

And if Rick comes, that means Ilya is not there the entire day.

[Rick Steele]

Oh, I'm sure he'll show up, like, after later.

[David]

How long does Rick want to go for?

[Rick Steele]

I want to go all day long, baby.

[David]

Oh, my God.

[Naveen]

So that changes the whole thing. You'll have Rick there getting drunk, having a good time.

[David]

I will not have Ilya. And it's. And it's. I mean, he's going to fucking jump in here because he takes his character very seriously. But, like, if I ever ask for Ilya.

[Naveen]

Yeah.

[David]

He like, will just refuse that he exists. Like, he. Even in private, cameras off everything. He won't talk to me as Ilya.

[Naveen]

Really.

[David]

It'll just be Rick talking, which is like, fine, because Rick has a good time.

[Naveen]

It's so funny. He got so frustrated with you that he created a character where he could talk to you.

[David]

Yeah, it's kind of interesting, isn't it?

[Naveen]

He's actually giving you what you wanted all along, so you get sick of it.

[David]

No, it's definitely genius. Yeah, no, I definitely like what he did. I just like, I do want Ilya on trip sometimes. Sure. Right. Yes. Rick, you can come tomorrow.

[Rick Steele]

Oh, yeah.

[David]

Okay. So you're coming to. Oh, it's not. I'm going to Coachella. Okay, so you're coming to Coachella as long as.

[Liberty Mutual Advertiser]

And Doug, there's nowhere I wouldn't go to help someone customize and save on car insurance with Liberty Mutual. Even if it means sitting front row at a comedy show.

[Natalie]

Hey, everyone, check out this guy and his bird. What is this, your first date?

[David]

Oh, no.

[Liberty Mutual Advertiser]

We help people customize and save on car insurance with Liberty Mutual together. We're married. Me to a human, him to a bird.

[Natalie]

Yeah, the bird looks out of your league anyways.

Only pay for what you [e-mail] Liberty.

[Naveen]

Liberty. Liberty. Liberty.

[Taco Bell Advertiser]

Life still full of choices. The new crispy Chicken Crunchwrap slider. A brand new classic only a Taco bell and participating U.S. taco Bell locations for less limited time and while supplies last.

[Natalie]

Oh no, my coffee bronnie.

[David]

Here.

[Naveen]

New Brawny three ply is now more absorbent. Wow.

[Natalie]

Got a clean shirt.

[David]

Do you wear plaid? Some of the strongest.

[Rick Steele]

Hey, that's me. Yeah.

[David]

You know what I was thinking about the other day?

[Naveen]

What?

[David]

I'm really happy about the time when we, like, came up on social media.

[Naveen]

Sure. Yeah. We were really lucky.

[David]

Like, I feel like we, like. Well, why do you think so?

[Naveen]

Because we were doing it before anyone

[David]

else was doing it, but that's okay. Well, time out.

[Ellie]

That's not true.

[David]

Backtrack. Like, there's a lot of people that

[Ellie]

did it before us.

[Naveen]

A lot of people.

[David]

Can you clarify what you're saying?

[Naveen]

We just got in at a good time.

[Rick Steele]

That's all.

[David]

Yeah, okay, but why you go. Because we did before anybody.

[Naveen]

Because we did before anybody else. No, I just feel like, yeah, we got really lucky to be doing it then. And. And I remember I. And I like the idea that we did it then and no one else was doing it. And I remember all the shit I got for starting to do it, and now everybody's doing it. So you feel vindicated in a way that was big.

[David]

I also. The main reason I wrote it down is there weren't, like, options at the time. Like, I feel like now, when you blow up now, there's always, like, that IT person. Every, like, five months. Yeah, Right. That, like, comes up and they're, like, having their moment, but now they immediately pivot into something else because they blow up, and it's like, boom. Neutrogena wants to make him the face. Or this. This company wants to start this show with them, and. And all these doors open immediately for them, and then there's a really big risk that they lose what they blew up. You know what I mean?

[Naveen]

Right.

[David]

They lose what, like, started them because there's almost too many opportunities that are presented to them immediately. And when we were, like, especially doing the vlogs, no opportunities were being presented to us. And I think that was, like, kind

[Ellie]

of the best part is, like, the

[David]

vlogs were doing good, and if. If, If. If the vlogs did as well, if

[Ellie]

they did as well now as they did back in the day, like, if I was. If I was having my peak right now, immediately I would be getting poached by, like, a Netflix or by, like, a Hulu, because that's just how everybody thinks now.

[Naveen]

Yeah.

[Ellie]

And immediately there'd be a really big risk I'd be running, and that's like losing your audience. Losing everything.

[Naveen]

Losing everything. Yeah.

[Ellie]

Which is like. And I think that's what was so cool about when we were. When we were, like, starting is that's all we had. And like the coolest opportunities were like a brand deal. We didn't even get that many brand deals.

[David]

Isn't that kind of crazy to think about?

[Ellie]

Yeah, like very, very, very, very, very, like ill frequent would we get brand

[Natalie]

deals and definitely not like blue chip brands, you know, like, it was never,

[David]

never, never like our, our big, most consistent was obviously seatgeek. Yeah. And then like, I get brands here and there on my Instagram, but nobody would ever understand. Like, the power of a YouTube video is still. Like, people are very confused about that. And Merch was where I made my most income. I was like promoting my own things. But yeah, I think about that now. And like now someone blows up and they get an opportunity to do content somewhere else.

[Natalie]

Yeah.

[David]

And if they don't manage their time well, they kind of fizzle out. Yeah. So I was just thinking about that the other day. I was like, yeah, we really got lucky.

[Naveen]

Yeah.

[David]

With when we started making videos, like, so, so fucking lucky.

[Naveen]

Yeah. It was so funny just to think too that like, you were so young and I was so old already. So funny.

[David]

That was. That's really crazy to think about. But that's also why it worked. Not only that, but we were like, we were, we were just like, hey, was that the perfect. I know we've said this a lot, but it was the perfect time of la. Like, it wasn't even, like, it wasn't even. It wasn't even like we were young. It was like stas, Kelsey, like all the people, like around us, like on the outside that we were interacting with also were like experiencing peak LA at the same time.

[Naveen]

And LA was better then too.

[David]

Yeah, LA was better than. I think that's a fact now. I've been asking a lot of people that question because I'm like, is this

[Naveen]

like, what made you hit your wagon to me?

[Natalie]

The fuck like, to link up with you?

[Naveen]

Yeah.

[David]

I mean, because you're funny.

[Naveen]

I know, but it must have been more than that.

[David]

You think I was like, in love with you?

[Naveen]

I'm asking the questions here.

[David]

No, you're definitely funny.

[Naveen]

Yeah. But I mean, more than that, you know, you must have liked. I don't know, it's so odd.

[Natalie]

Did you guys click?

[David]

Well, I liked you because you, you always tried.

[Naveen]

I always tried.

[Natalie]

Yeah.

[David]

Yeah. You were always down to make stuff. And at that time, I was like, at the time there was a very specific recipe in, like, how to interact with each and each person in our friend group.

[Naveen]

Right, right.

[David]

Like, there were the people that were like, like, big N. I remember it was like, going to his house. I'd have to, like, I'd. I. I'd film my portion of the video of my vlog, going to his apartment. I remember parking in his apartment was the biggest pain in the ass. 1600 vine is like eight steps just to get inside his apartment. And then after I was done filming mine, he'd be like, okay, can you film mine?

[Natalie]

Yeah.

[David]

So I'd hold his camera.

[Naveen]

Yeah.

[David]

And we'd go through all those kinds of jokes again.

[Ellie]

Right.

[David]

We just, like, do it all over again. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And then. And then it was. It was very strictly much that. And then with you, it was very different. I'd sit in the car with you for, like, quite literally five, six hours, driving around like we were police officers fucking, seeing what funny thing would pop up on the street. And then there'd be like, Zane and Heath, who I would, like, have to come. Zane and Heath were more likely. Like, I'd get something out and about.

[Naveen]

Yeah.

[David]

And then there were people like Carly and Aaron that would also just kind of come to the house and would kind of do what you do. And we just kind of sit around and like, just throw bits back and forth. Yeah, yeah. So, like, everybody had like a. And some people didn't want to film, actually. That's not true.

[Naveen]

Everybody wanted to film.

[David]

Everybody wanted to film.

[Natalie]

Yeah.

[David]

And the best part is everybody was also filming their own thing, which now no one does other than you.

[Rick Steele]

Right.

[David]

So, like, it was so easy for me. Even if Carly and Aaron were doing like a Q and A that wasn't as, like, wasn't as action packed, I would just put my camera down and be like, there's definitely one question here that's going to be really funny that I can use. So I would literally just like, hijack bits from people, which was, like, incredible.

[Naveen]

Yeah.

[David]

So I miss that.

[Naveen]

I miss having, like, a lot of people filming. I told Ilya, I was like, you should have him come to the vlogs with you. And he was like, oh, yeah, what do you want to do? And I was like, I don't know. Like, let's just hang out.

[David]

Oh, my God, that's my least favorite thing that Ilya. Ilya says this all the time. Ilya will be like, I'll be like, can you come with me here?

[Naveen]

Yeah.

[David]

And he'll be like, well, why would you need me there?

[Naveen]

And I don't know if I'm going to need you.

[David]

And like, that's the thing. Like, I like Especially maybe that. Maybe that doesn't sound as ridiculous to people listening. But, like. But, like, especially when making videos, like, 1000% getting a bit is never the actual. This is so lame to say.

[Ellie]

Is never the actual destination, but it's the journey. So, like, anything along the road can happen. That's funny, right?

[David]

Car can break down.

[Ellie]

There could be a funny mango salesman on the side.

[David]

And, like. And that's why you need, like, as many people there as possible. So it's so. So it turns out to be funny. But Ilya's always saying, Ellie's like, why would you need me on this private jet? I'm like, I don't fucking know why I would need you, but please come if you're free. So we're going to Coachella.

[Naveen]

Yeah.

[David]

So that's. This is gonna be.

[Naveen]

What's it gonna be like?

[David]

This is the first year I genuinely feel, like, way too old to, like, actually partake.

[Natalie]

I don't feel old. I just, like, don't care to do half of the stuff that we usually do, you know?

[David]

I think it's just worn out.

[Natalie]

Yeah.

[Naveen]

You guys have been going. Bali was a lot, I'm sure. And Natalie, obviously. It was a lot.

[David]

Yeah. I don't want Natalie another or a farming headache.

[Naveen]

Will you go to the show and watch the people?

[David]

I. I do want to see the Justin Bieber thing.

[Natalie]

Yeah.

[David]

I'm not the biggest fan of, like, going through the camps, like, going through the Coachella grounds. Grounds. I think it's kind of difficult to move around, describe to people how hard

[Naveen]

it is to get to Coachella.

[Natalie]

I mean, for us, I feel like it's not that challenging because now we've. We know how to work the system and have the right parking passes and artist passes and all that stuff.

[Naveen]

But even if you have the artist pass, it's still a schlep. Right.

[David]

It's not only that. It's not even getting. It's like you lose one person, and you're spending half the time finding that person.

[Natalie]

Yeah.

[David]

You're always on the phone with someone, meeting up with someone.

[Rick Steele]

Right.

[David]

Only to meet up with them, and then you guys figure out that you both want to go see different people.

[Natalie]

Yeah.

[David]

Then you're splitting up again, and then you're. It's just like, it's. You're always looking for somebody.

[Natalie]

You just said, have a buddy. Like, I bring my sister. My sister's coming.

[Naveen]

Yeah.

[Natalie]

And we'll just do everything together. Like, we'll just separate from the group and do our own thing. You know?

[Naveen]

That's nice.

[David]

Coachella's so. It's so. There's this, like, feeling I get there that's so, like, nostalgic, and that's when you're, like, drunk or. I almost, like. I'm always usually, like, not even drunk, but it feels like you're drunk. It feels like you're on a drug. You're walking around. It's nighttime. It's, like, pretty cool. And you're hearing all these. You're walking around, you're hearing everyone's chattering. It's the same sound. Do you know what I'm referring to? Yeah, it's the same sound. You're hearing music from different places, and you're kind of walking around like everything's blurry. I don't know how to explain it. Do you know what I'm talking about? It's this very specific. It's this very specific sensation. Yeah, it feels like you're drunk, but I'm not even saying you're drunk, but it's just like, if. Yeah, it feels like you're at a

[Ellie]

party and you're drunk, and you're, like, trying to, like, get through 100 people to get to the bathroom. Like, that's how all of Coachella feels. And I'm not saying that's a bad feeling, but I'm just saying it's such a nostalgic feeling. For some reason, every time I'm there, I'm like, oh, yeah, I'm here.

[Naveen]

Yeah.

[Ellie]

I don't know what it is. It's very interesting.

[Natalie]

That just made me tired.

[Ellie]

Yeah, exactly.

[Natalie]

It's really tired thinking about doing that.

[Ellie]

And I get tired of just seeing people there. Like, people are so good at. Like, they go out during the day, then they're. Then they go to the show. They're in the hot sun, then they watch a show to, like, midnight, and. And then they go party to, like, 5:00am yeah. And then they redo it. I just don't have the crazy. I don't know how they do it. I'm just like, how late we stay out. I don't know.

[David]

I don't. I don't.

[Ellie]

Like. I, like, start my day really late. Like, I'll start my day at, like, 6, 7, 8.

[Naveen]

Okay.

[Ellie]

So I'll probably stay out till, like, 4. But, like, I won't start until late, which is. I also don't like about Coachella. I miss. I miss the daytime. I just. I don't know.

[David]

I don't do it properly. Coachella is the one thing where it's like there is no proper way to do it. There's no, like, just do the daytime, just do the nighttime. Like every part of it is equally fun. I feel like.

[Naveen]

Yes.

[David]

And I think that kind of fucks me because I just don't know when

[Naveen]

there any parties that you want to go to. Anything cool?

[David]

Not really. Every year it's the same parties. Revolve, they're all cool. Guess is cool Revolve, Neon, nylon. They're all. They're all exactly the same. Yeah, every year. But like really fun. But like once you've seen it one year, you've seen it every year.

[Naveen]

I think I went out Saturday night. I went out on Sunset Boulevard and we went to this like sex party and we left after 10 minutes.

[David]

Oh, wait, I heard you saying you're gonna go to this.

[Naveen]

Yeah, we went to this. We went to a sex party and we went down there and.

[David]

You and Naveen?

[Naveen]

Yeah.

[Natalie]

In Hollywood, like off Sunset.

[Naveen]

Well, first we went downtown to like. Like really, really scary area. Downtown. Like people like literal zombies walking in the street. It was really bad. And then we left. Sex party after like 15 minutes. We just didn't feel comfortable.

[Rick Steele]

Why?

[David]

Wait. Yeah, you gotta describe this. First of all, how are you getting this invite to the sex party? What the fuck is a sex party?

[Naveen]

We have a really cool friend. She's so great. I love her. She's like. She came to Thanksgiving. She's just like this person that's like kind of already.

[David]

Have I met her?

[Naveen]

Yeah, you've met her. Oh, and we love her. We love her. She's funny, like, blah, blah, blah. And so she. She throws these parties downtown that are just really wild.

[David]

She doesn't refer to them as sex parties, obviously.

[Naveen]

No, she doesn't.

[Ellie]

Okay.

[Naveen]

But, but, but actually, yeah. I mean, on the flyer it's like, you know, there's gonna be a glory hole, there's gonna be mud wrestling. There's gonna be all these things. And we went once before, like a year ago. And it's just so funny. We keep trying to be these people and we're not those people.

[Natalie]

Sex party.

[Naveen]

Do you know what I mean?

[David]

I mean, yeah. I don't know why you keep trying to be a sex party person.

[Natalie]

Do you go in like a costume or you just go as yourself?

[Naveen]

No one's in costume.

[Natalie]

Okay.

[Naveen]

And so we just went down there and we went down. Then we were like, all right, we gotta go.

[Natalie]

So you're downtown. Like, are you at like a warehouse?

[David]

Y.

[Naveen]

She has like a warehouse.

[David]

Did you Walk in? Or is that why you're skipping over because you never even walked in?

[Naveen]

No, no, we went in.

[David]

Okay, what did you see this time?

[Naveen]

We were there really early to hang out with her.

[David]

Okay. So. So not much was going on.

[Naveen]

Not much was going. There were. There were, like, a couple girls, like, starting to strip or whatever. We went to the back room where people, like, have sex. And. And. And, like, she was like. There was, like, a couple on the couch, but they didn't. They weren't doing anything. And it is. It was a really.

[David]

We talked about this before where there was a guy, like, jerking off in the corner.

[Naveen]

Yeah, that was last time.

[David]

Okay, so last time you went. Why did you like this experience so much the last time that you felt the need to go back? Just because you like her so much?

[Naveen]

Yeah, just because we like her so much. And we keep trying to, like, be there, but then when I get there, I'm uncomfortable and Naveen's uncomfortable, and then we leave.

[David]

So there's a guy jerking off. Is he making eye contact with you guys? What is he doing?

[Naveen]

Yeah, like, the last time we were there, we were. We were in the back room and we were, like, making out. And then a guy just came and sat next.

[Natalie]

Started jerking off.

[David]

Oh, watching you guys make out.

[Naveen]

He was looking at everybody. I wouldn't be so vain to say. He was only looking at us.

[David]

And then. Are people coming up to you? Be like, can you. Can I You.

[Naveen]

One guy came up to me and he was like, yo, Jason.

[David]

Oh, okay. He knew you.

[Naveen]

Like, what are you doing here?

[David]

You said this before, too. Where a lot of people. You knew a lot of people?

[Naveen]

Yeah, we knew a lot of people there, too, which made it not a good place for a sex party.

[David]

Wow. Okay.

[Naveen]

Yeah.

[David]

So then you left this time?

[Naveen]

Yeah. And so then we left, and then we went to the edition and Sunset was popping. It was, like, really busy. Right? Is it. Is it not?

[Natalie]

I don't know, man.

[Naveen]

Do you guys not go down there?

[Natalie]

I haven't really.

[Naveen]

I feel like the last few times I've driven down Sunset, it's like nothing on a Saturday night. Like, no one's out.

[David]

I don't really know how to describe Sunset. I don't.

[Naveen]

I think it has the potential to be, like, the best street in the country.

[David]

Like, I agree.

[Naveen]

Right?

[David]

I agree. I don't know. I don't know what other street, like, compares to Sunset Boulevard. It's, like, so pretty, so famous. It's like Sunset Boulevard in Los Angeles. It feels like it should Be like the place.

[Naveen]

Yes.

[David]

I feel like it's more like there's a lot of things to go out, but I don't think like anything's been deemed as the thing on Sunset. Do you know what I mean? Like, I think it's just always busy because it is the street. But I don't think people are. I don't. I don't hear people being like, you gotta go to the Edition.

[Natalie]

Yeah.

[David]

Or you like the Sunset Tower is a big thing for celebrities. The thing right across from Dobrik's.

[Naveen]

Right.

[David]

That's huge. Keys is really big for like a younger crowd.

[Naveen]

Yeah. We drove by Keys audition.

[David]

Like, I don't even know what it's. What crowd goes there, what was there?

[Naveen]

It was all kids, really. Like, younger than you. A guy came up to me and I was at the audition and a guy came up to me and we were waiting for my car and he goes. He goes, jason Nash. Jason Nash. He goes, right now, me, you. He goes, do you want to have the most amazing time ever? He goes, right now, me, you, the body shop. Let's go.

[Natalie]

Let's go right now.

[David]

Interesting.

[Naveen]

And I was like, I can't. I can't go. And. And then. And then there was a. I thought it was so funny. And then there was a waymo that was blocking everything so no one could get out of the audition. It's just a waymo, like. And so I got in the car and I was telling Naveen and I was like, yeah, like, he told me to go to the body shop, but my window was open. And then you just hear him in front of me and he was like. He's like, I'm serious right now. Let's go. It's fucking awesome.

[David]

Wait, should we tell him our story?

[Natalie]

Yeah.

[David]

Well, okay, well, our story also has to do with your story, kind of.

[Naveen]

What happened?

[David]

So we went out and we haven't gone out in LA in like a month and a half, two months.

[Natalie]

Yeah.

[Naveen]

You were out Saturday night?

[Natalie]

Saturday night, yeah.

[David]

Oh, we were on the same night.

[Naveen]

Yeah.

[David]

Wow. Okay, so we were at a party next to the Chateau and then we went to a party basically.

[Naveen]

At a house.

[David]

Yeah, we went to two different house parties and they were like literally in

[Ellie]

circumference to the chateau, like right in the same circle vicinity. And then it was like 3am we didn't know where to go. And we were with like two new friends and Zane and Nat and we were like, let's go to the body shop. And we were like, okay, let's do it. That'd been so funny if we ran into you.

[Natalie]

That would have been so funny.

[Naveen]

I was begging and being to go because as I was sitting in the car.

[Ellie]

What time of day, what time of night would have this been?

[Naveen]

1231.

[Ellie]

Okay, so you would have beaten us by a little, but that would have been.

[Naveen]

So no. 1:30. 1:30, actually, because we got last call at the edition, so. 1:30.

[Ellie]

We didn't get there till like 3.

[Natalie]

Really?

[Ellie]

Yeah, yeah.

[Natalie]

Oh, shit.

[Ellie]

Because 233.

[Naveen]

I was begging to go because I asked the guy if he wanted to produce a TV show in the car and he was like, yeah. He's like, I'll give you the money. And I was like, okay. And he.

[Natalie]

And then.

[Ellie]

So been like a business dinner.

[Naveen]

Yeah.

[Ellie]

Body shop.

[Naveen]

He didn't want to go, so go ahead. You went to the body shop?

[Ellie]

So I went to the body shop and I was. We were with these two, like, girls that we just met. Like two new girls. And I was like, listen, I have like an ex lover here at the body shop. Her name's Honey, right? And like, I'm going to need, like, you may see me throw hands if I come in there. Like, she hasn't texted me. It's been a year and a half since I gave her my number. And the girls were like, laughing, Ha. And I walk in and like the first three strippers I see, I'm like, is Honey working here? And they're like, yeah, that's Honey over there. And I'm like, oh, my God, she's fucking here. And then these two girls come up to me. These two other shippers come up to me and they're like, david, blah, blah, blah, we love the videos, the pod, whatever. And I'm like, is Honey here? And they're like, wait, Honey from the pod? It's our honey. And I'm like, yeah, it's your fucking honey. And then they bring Honey over. And I'm like, honey, what the fuck?

[Natalie]

So funny.

[Ellie]

And she's like, what? And I'm like, you never fucking texted me. And she goes, I didn't. I'm so sorry. And I'm like, check your phone.

[David]

You have my number.

[Ellie]

And she's like, I. She's like, I got a new phone. And I'm like, honey, that's fucking bullshit.

[Naveen]

No.

[Ellie]

And the girls I'm with are like, wait, is this a bit or is this real?

[David]

And I'm like, it's kind of.

[Ellie]

Yeah, it started out as a.

[David]

That's real. And then it Turned to a bit, and then it went real again.

[Ellie]

And now I don't know what it is.

[Naveen]

Wow.

[David]

So I'm telling Honey. I'm like.

[Ellie]

And then, you know, obviously I'm like, joking about this whole thing. I'm like, honey, like, you've been a big sore spot in my life for the last year. At least. Like, I've been talking about. You have a podcast. She doesn't know who I am, has no idea who I am. And, like, I've been bringing you up, like, on my pod, like, with friends. And then I went through my text, and I looked up the word honey in my text, and there was, like, four examples where I've brought her up as a joke to other people. Like, where I'm like, you'll. You'll never be what a honey was to me or what, you know, whatever. Like, I referenced her a couple times because, like, there's at least 10 friends that know Honey the stripper. So she's like, laughing. She finds it funny. And, yeah. She's like.

[Naveen]

And then what happened?

[Ellie]

Well, I asked her. I was gonna surprise you, but I asked her if she wanted to do the pod.

[Rick Steele]

Oh, yeah.

[Ellie]

And she's down. She's down?

[Natalie]

Yeah. You're kidding.

[Ellie]

No, no. So we're gonna bring her, and she. We're gonna do an episode with Honey. So that's why I don't want to get too much into it, because I, you know, I really want to. Really want to get to the bottom of.

[Naveen]

What's she like?

[Ellie]

She's really great.

[Natalie]

She's just like a normal girl.

[David]

She's just a normal girl. She's really funny. Chill.

[Ellie]

I told her I was like, the pod's anonymous. It's not video. So it'll just be your voice. You'll obviously go by Honey. So, yeah. So she's down to do the pod. Wow. Which will be a really, really fun episode. I'm just excited to get her perspective on everything. Like, you know, because the original story is I gave her my number. I stayed up till like, 5 or 6am waiting for her to text me. She never texted me. And I. I mean, I got to kind of close this chapter off with her at the strip club, which was incredible. And then I went home. I went home quite. I went home right after I finished talking to her and got a lap dance from her after.

[Natalie]

Oh, my God. Did you?

[David]

Yeah.

[Ellie]

And after that, I was like, okay, I think it's time for me to go. And she's like, what, you're gonna leave? And I'M like, yeah, it's kind of it. I told Zayn and Natalie, and then she came out after me.

[Naveen]

She did?

[Ellie]

Yeah. And then I was like, just text me. And she's like, I don't have your number. And then she's like, this time I'll put my number in your phone.

[Naveen]

Okay.

[Ellie]

And she put her number in my phone, and I left. And that was it.

[Naveen]

You text her tomorrow and you never

[Rick Steele]

hear from her again?

[Ellie]

No, I didn't text her.

[Naveen]

You didn't text her?

[Ellie]

No, no, no.

[Naveen]

How are we gonna get her on?

[Natalie]

You're playing the game right back at her.

[Ellie]

I'm not playing the game. She just needs to understand that it's over. There was a moment, and it's gone.

[Naveen]

Really?

[Ellie]

Yeah.

[Naveen]

I think that'd be really cool to hear the stripper's perspective. That'd be really.

[Ellie]

No, 100%. She's coming on. Yeah, yeah, no, no, we're gonna do it.

[Naveen]

That's great. If she texts back. Unless she goes to you again.

[Ellie]

Well, no, Natalie grabbed her number. I was like. Because before, I was like, don't grab my number. Grab Natalie's.

[Naveen]

Sure.

[David]

And she'll keep this.

[Ellie]

Yeah, keep this professional and business. And then she's like, yeah, I'm totally down, so that'll be a really fun episode.

[David]

We've never had a stripper on the pod. No.

[Ellie]

I think there's way more questions to ask a stripper than just about my relationship with her. So I think just in general will

[David]

be a really, really right up our

[Ellie]

alley to have an exotic dancer on our pod.

[Natalie]

Yeah, for sure.

[Ellie]

So it's gonna be really, really fun.

[Naveen]

Yeah.

[Ellie]

So that was a big surprise I was planning, but cast out of the bag.

[Naveen]

So, you know, I wonder if. Why a stripper wouldn't just do onlyfans and just make more.

[Ellie]

That was my question to her.

[Naveen]

Yeah.

[Ellie]

I literally asked her that. I was like, why aren't you doing onlyfans?

[Naveen]

Right?

[Ellie]

And she was like, well, all my.

[David]

She's like, well, all my pictures are

[Ellie]

in my camera roll.

[David]

I'm like, oh, okay.

[Naveen]

What does that mean?

[Ellie]

I don't know, but I was like, you got snapped.

[David]

No, but yeah.

[Naveen]

Meaning, like, she likes to keep that.

[David]

Yeah. Yeah, but I think. Yeah, that was literally my first question. That was actually my question I asked to the girls that we were with too. I was like, I wonder why. I was like, First I said, I wonder why not. Why don't these people do onlyfans instead? But then I was like, oh, they probably do both, like, they probably enjoy. There is. You gotta have some. There is joy. When being a stripper, I feel like you gotta love. Right? So, like, you're dancing, you're, like, having all these interactions with all these people. Like, you must like people. Like, there is, like, some interesting level to it.

[Natalie]

I also feel like there's more. So, like, when you do onlyfans, you have to, like, really market yourself and put yourself out there for the entire world. Like the strip club, you can probably still make good money and also just, like, preserve.

[David]

I think there's also more privacy in a strip club. Surprising.

[Natalie]

That's what I'm saying. Yeah.

[David]

But I guess you could do that in onlyfans too, if you don't show your face. I don't know. That was a big question. And I didn't, like, her answer, didn't, like, fulfill me that, like, made any sense. She was just like, I kind of keep those to myself. But in my head I'm like, well, why don't you just like, well, I saw this thing. Why don't you just post this?

[Naveen]

I saw this thing about being famous, which was that you can only be as famous as your nervous system will allow.

[David]

Yeah, that's definitely. That definitely makes sense.

[Naveen]

Yeah. And some people just.

[David]

They don't want that 100%.

[Naveen]

Yeah.

[David]

Yeah. Like, there's no such thing as, like. Like, I'm not gonna name names, but there's people that are really good at being just famous.

[Naveen]

Yeah.

[David]

Because they don't care about what people say. There is no. There's no world in which you can get removed from the Internet.

[Ellie]

Right.

[David]

Or canceled or anything. There's no such. There's no such thing. It's completely 1000% up to you.

[Natalie]

Yeah.

[David]

You can be.

[Natalie]

Well, you can be deplatformed, like, removed entirely.

[Naveen]

Yeah.

[David]

Yes, you can. Very rare. Very rare. That's very rare. But that's. But, yeah, but like, I'm just talking about, like. Yeah, there's. There's just people that do it really well because they don't give a. They just don't give a.

[Naveen]

Hey, man. Have you been catching print lately?

[Natalie]

Oh, my God, yes.

[David]

Wait, what do you say?

[Natalie]

I have.

[Naveen]

Have you been catching. You've been catching print?

[Natalie]

I've been catching.

[Naveen]

Did you catch David catching print? Because, Natalie, you can't catch print. I hope not.

[Natalie]

Wait, really? No, I can catch print.

[Naveen]

You can?

[David]

Is that when you're like, cock shows through your pants?

[Natalie]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[David]

Why did you just bring that up? I don't know.

[Naveen]

It's just like a TikTok term.

[David]

I learned catching print. Natalie catches print more than anybody.

[Naveen]

Oh, like a camel toe print?

[David]

No, her fucking nipples.

[Rick Steele]

Oh.

[Naveen]

Oh. I guess it's. Oh, it could be. I guess it could go that way.

[Natalie]

No, no, no. Print is like it's not like a day.

[David]

She's not rock hard. I don't know why.

[Naveen]

Must be you.

[Natalie]

I'm just so turned on in the workplace. No, catching print is like when the different. The way that you're like dick presses against your pants. Like your crotch area signifies the how big your. Your dick is. Yeah, so when you catch print, there's,

[Naveen]

there's, there's, there's three different types. I thought it was four.

[Natalie]

Okay, there's four, four different types.

[Naveen]

And obviously four is the biggest. Right Nat? Yes.

[David]

Wow. Okay, so.

[Naveen]

So the lowest.

[David]

Okay, so if it's like down the middle, it's one way. If it's down to the left, it's another. I'm assuming.

[Naveen]

Yeah, if it's. If one would be like, like you're not that big.

[Natalie]

Okay, so type A for catching print is when your bulge peaks at the middle or above the inseam. Okay, so that's A. And that's.

[David]

I assume that's the smallest.

[Natalie]

Yes.

[David]

Okay.

[Natalie]

And that's like a 4 to 6 inch dick. Tiny, tiny, tiny, tiny little guy.

[David]

Natalie.

[Naveen]

But you know, penises go inside.

[David]

Wait, what? Right the fuck?

[Naveen]

Like some penises, the guy could have like a 7 inch cock, but when he's catching print, it looks like a 1 inch penis.

[Natalie]

Yeah, I'm sure there's like nuances to it.

[David]

Wait, are you saying four to six, like soft?

[Natalie]

No, I think that's hard.

[David]

Oh, oh, wait. Oh, oh. Catching print when somebody's hard.

[Natalie]

No, no, no. Like no, when they're catch the print.

[David]

Soft but that still means that you're hard. Four to six.

[Natalie]

Yeah.

[David]

Okay. Okay, keep going.

[Natalie]

Okay, so type B is when the bulge peaks at the middle or lower inseam. That's six to eight. Type D is often described as flat or banana shaped. So it's peeking out but like in a half circle, like you can see the roundness of it like coming through. That's eight inches or more.

[David]

That's where I'm sitting for sure.

[Natalie]

I see that banana.

[David]

Thank you.

[Rick Steele]

Nice.

[Natalie]

Anyways, yeah, those are.

[David]

What's the final one?

[Natalie]

It's just a B and D. It says.

[David]

Yeah, I like that they skip C to get straight to the D. Well done. Okay, well guys, comment down below what type you are for your print and let us know and join us for next episode. Also, get ready for this honey episode. It will be coming soon. I'm very, very excited.

[Naveen]

David, David, we have to temper our expectations.

[Rick Steele]

Why?

[Naveen]

That honey is gonna call you or Natalie back and come on this podcast. I mean, I hope she does.

[David]

No, she definitely will. Sounding like she would 1000%.

[Naveen]

She hasn't returned your calls in the past.

[David]

She's not. I've never called her in my life.

[Ellie]

Life.

[Naveen]

Oh, well, your texts.

[David]

I've never texted her in my life. Oh, what do you mean she texted? I gave her my number and she never texted me. Oh, yeah.

[Naveen]

Okay, so you're in a better spot now. Yeah, I see.

[David]

No, no, we're good. She's gonna come. I. I believe, honey. But we'll see you guys for the next episode on Thursday. Bye, guys.
