[Leah]

No. You guys, you guys would be so proud of me. I've been, like, channeling my girly girl era.

[Heath]

Okay.

[Zayn]

I was about to say, you look very nice today.

[Heath]

We got our curls going.

[Leah]

Yeah, the curls are always going. But I've been trying this new lifestyle change where I'm like, a little Pilates girl.

[Zayn]

But, Leah, it's because you, you have a show coming up. You're trying to look like a reality TV star. I, I, we see what you're doing.

[Leah]

I'm really trying, but no, I just, you know what it's like. Okay. I have to change my lifestyle in general.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Leah]

I just, I feel like every morning I was like, waking up, going to work, coming home, doing the same thing over and over again. I was like, I need to, like, incorporate working out. And I don't like the gym. Like, I just don't know what to do there. I don't like the treadmill. I get bored and I leave. So I signed up for Solidcore, which my wife does. That was fucking crazy, by the way. You should try it with me. It is like training for war. Like, it is the first day. These girls are, like, doing the craziest moves. I don't know how they were doing it, but I just hit my 25th class. I can fully hold my plane.

[Zayn]

Do you get, like, a coin, like, on your 25th?

[Leah]

A little like a board for you, saying Leah's 25th class. But that also levels me up with how many springs go on my. Yes, my reformer and all that stuff.

[Zayn]

So you're in your, like, tone Pilates era.

[Leah]

Trying. If you could. Can you tell?

[Zayn]

Nice. Nice.

[Leah]

Yeah. Drinking. Really?

[Zayn]

You haven't?

[Leah]

I haven't. I've been staying in.

[Zayn]

Okay.

[Leah]

Trying to be better.

[Matt]

Good.

[Zayn]

But because I feel like it's this, like, kind of downtime before the show comes out.

[Leah]

You kind of.

[Zayn]

Because I feel like you're saving for it. I feel like you, you guys are going to get crazy once it's out. You're going to want to celebrate. You're going to want to watch it go. I feel like you're saving that. Yeah, I can see why.

[Leah]

And it's also just like when I sign up for these classes, if you cancel the class, like let's say I go out, I sign up for the class, it's at 8am the next day and I don't go. It's like $35 for the cancellation fee.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Leah]

And so like last last week, I think I was so tired. I don't. I wasn't sleeping for some reason and I missed two of the classes and it was $70 for the week. And I'm already paying 281 for the month for the unlimited classes. So it's just like, okay, you're not missing. I have an 8am class. I'm not going out tonight. So I'll just sign up. Just to sign up.

[Zayn]

These gym memberships are getting too crazy. They're getting too expensive because like you want to incentivize, like have a better lifestyle, work out, take care of yourself and you're gonna make that 75amonth.

[Matt]

No, 2815 sounds cheap.

[Heath]

It was. It was 75. To cancel.

[Zayn]

To cancel.

[Leah]

That was my two class cancel.

[Matt]

Crazy. Yeah.

[Leah]

I mean, even just I was talking

[Zayn]

about more like those like the like Planet Fitness. LA Fitness. Like, yeah, I feel like those are. Got jacked up because those used to be like 20 bucks a month.

[Leah]

Yeah.

[Zayn]

And now it's up to like 70. That's. Which is crazy.

[Leah]

I went to this one plot because I was doing class pass to see where I liked. So I was going to all these different gyms and one I really liked and she's like, okay, well Unlimited is 465amonth. I'm like, whoa, like at that point I'm going to Equinox.

[Matt]

Right?

[Heath]

At that point you're getting another. A new car.

[Leah]

Speaking of new cars, I was at the car place today and okay, might get a new car.

[Zayn]

Leah, wait till the show comes out.

[Matt]

My God.

[Zayn]

Spent all this money. You don't know if it's going to.

[Leah]

You know, with this clean girl lifestyle. I've been having the worst fucking luck of my life. I'm not even kidding. It all started with. I obviously did not read my lease. And for some reason I was like, oh my God, our landlord pays for our gas bill. And I was like, so actually the cast was in town for interviews and I wasn't home. And my friend Liv was staying with me and she was like, the gas people came and turned your gas off because you haven't paid it for five months. I go, oh my God, I thought they paid that. And I was like, my bad. So I called the gas company. They're like, yeah, like we have to get you approved because I've never been in charge of yeah before. So they had to prove my account, whatever. It took three days.

[Zayn]

Wait, where did you live before? Where you thought gas was covered? Sometimes it is.

[Leah]

It's water. So my water is covered, not my gas.

[Matt]

Water, power usually are together because it's lavwp.

[Zayn]

Gas is separate and water and power are separate. But I've never heard of a place.

[Leah]

So apparently that's never a thing. But it's me. So obviously I'm wrong, right? So they pay for my water, not my gas. So anyways, they turn the gas off. Three days later, the girl calls me and she's like, okay, yeah, perfect. And keep in mind, my gas has already been off for about five days now that I've figured this out. To call them whatever.

[Zayn]

Yeah.

[Leah]

And then it's like, let's just say it's the first. She goes, Perfect, we can come out on the 22nd.

[Heath]

I go, no.

[Matt]

What?

[Leah]

I don't have hot water. I don't have a stove. I don't have a dishwasher. I have nothing.

[Zayn]

Well, you can say here we have a

[Leah]

well. Thank God my best friends live above me. So I was just going up and showering and cooking if I had to, which was fine. We got through it. Then my, you know, my electricity went down. As soon as I got my gas back, my washer like started breaking. And then my car started shaking. So I bring it to the shop. And then two weeks, my car was in a shop.

[Matt]

Oh, no.

[Leah]

1550 later, my car's still broken and shaking. And I go, what the fuck did you guys do?

[Zayn]

This is the Jeep, right?

[Leah]

Yes. So I waited too long to get my oil change. If anyone's listening, let me.

[Heath]

How long. How long was it?

[Leah]

Four or five months.

[Matt]

Wait, with the notification on, you need an oil change and you've been driving on it for four to five months?

[Zayn]

You girls think that light is up there just because it's pretty.

[Matt]

I got.

[Leah]

I gotta go out. I got to pay for.

[Matt]

There's always stuff with my car though, where I'm like, oh, I gotta handle that. But the moment you get home, you're like, you forget everything that is dealing with the car. Like, I'm. I'm pretty good about maintaining my car, but I always have cars. Car amnesia. Like, after.

[Zayn]

It's crazy how I never Think of any of that. Because I have a Tesla now, so you don't have to worry about like the oil, the.

[Matt]

Oh, yeah, there's no oil change.

[Zayn]

It's crazy. Yeah. It's just that you just have to make sure that your battery. Because there's a battery in every. No, no, just the battery's good, I feel like.

[Matt]

But don't we need some lube at all?

[Leah]

But also, your Tesla also notifies you when something wrong.

[Matt]

And then.

[Zayn]

And then you can easily. Tesla will come. They'll take care of you right on the spot.

[Leah]

Yeah.

[Zayn]

Yeah.

[Leah]

So then I go. So then I was asking them, they're like. I was like, you didn't fucking fix my car. Like, you need to fix it for free. Sorry. Freaking. Oh, you guys need to fix my car. And so I bring it back free of charge. They convinced me to buy one part that's gonna like. They just kept convincing me of things. Right. They're definitely taking advantage of me. Cause when I looked at my invoice out of the 1550, 1300 of it was labor. And I looked at them, I said, no, these.

[Zayn]

These places are terrible.

[Heath]

When I.

[Zayn]

When I. When I hit the poll, Leah, I. My first day, literally at this complex, I hit a pole.

[Heath]

The.

[Zayn]

I got the keys, hit a pole like 10 minutes later. And then I go back to the office. The day I met her.

[Leah]

Hi.

[Zayn]

I just crashed into your pole. Don't worry though. I'm gonna get a tow and everything. I brought my car to the nearest place here. Yeah, they were trying to charge me for just a door to replace the door. $16,000.

[Leah]

No.

[Zayn]

16,000 for a fucking door, bro. That is. That is.

[Leah]

Did you not open it?

[Heath]

It was. It was a scrape and a little bit of a dentist.

[Zayn]

Insane.

[Leah]

I would have left it, but that

[Zayn]

Tesla was like 60 grand. You're going to charge me 16k for a fucking door?

[Heath]

And they. They weren't even going to replace the door. They were just going to try to pop the dent out and get a plunger.

[Zayn]

We knew exactly what they're going to do. Insane. But yeah. Heath, How's Tony again? We got to get a weekly update. How's Tony?

[Heath]

Great, great. Unbelievable. He's chilling right now. I was actually just. My brother got the keys to his new spot. He lives 15 minutes from me now.

[Matt]

Whoa.

[Leah]

He moved.

[Zayn]

Finally. Oh, my God. We've been waiting, dude. It's so.

[Heath]

So I. I just ran over there real quick. He had like a whole bunch of stuff to get out of a U Haul, so I have A hand truck. So I just threw that in the car real quick, ran it over to him. I was like, I gotta record. I can come back and help afterwards. And he's like, no, no, go do your thing. So he's just unloading some stuff right now and yeah, he's so close.

[Zayn]

He. Leah, if you didn't know, his brother works for him now. He used to work at like a jail.

[Leah]

Oh, no way.

[Zayn]

Like, like fort, like, like what was it full time? Like does he have officer.

[Leah]

Any potentials for me at the jail? You guys know me and my criminals.

[Heath]

Yeah, I'm sure he could set you up with a ton of.

[Leah]

Did he move there for you because you moved?

[Heath]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. So he, he was like two and a half hours away. He was doing a lot of stuff, like remote, like back end for the shows and things like that. But there's a lot that I want to like get done at the house and he's really like handy. So I was like, if I have him move here and like pay for his salary, I would be saving money than if I hired all these like contractors and people to do stuff like fixing my basement. Just shit around the house. I was like, perfect. Makes sense.

[Zayn]

And your, your dad too, right? Your dad built. You literally hired them both as a team and they'll, they'll make your whole guest house that you want to make.

[Heath]

Exactly.

[Zayn]

Crazy.

[Heath]

But yeah, no, it's awesome. Tony's doing great. That's why I got Swig. You know, I was on my way home, I was like, you know what?

[Leah]

I deserve it.

[Zayn]

Is it the Founder? Very good, very good. Okay, well, I think it's time to roll the intro.

[Matt]

Yes, Good.

[Zayn]

Let's get started, baby. This is going to be a juicy ass motherfucking episode. Get ready, get your seatbelts on. We're about to get crazy.

[Matt]

Three, two, one.

[Heath]

It's Cockatoo, baby.

[Zayn]

Welcome back to Zayn and Heath Unfiltered. I'm Zayn.

[Heath]

I'm Heath.

[Matt]

I'm Matt.

[Zayn]

And today we got Leah.

[Leah]

Leah, thanks for having me.

[Zayn]

Of course, of course.

[Matt]

Leah. It's been a while, I guess, since the last time you were here and I know a lot of exciting things are coming your way, but can you just give us like a skinny on.

[Zayn]

Yeah, what?

[Matt]

Yeah, what you've been up to, what we kind of talked about last time and what's about to come for you.

[Zayn]

Because we can't. We. We couldn't talk about anything.

[Leah]

Can't talk about it. No,

[Matt]

that's fine.

[Zayn]

That's Fine.

[Leah]

I. To be fair, I still didn't even know the release date, but I could tell you it's probably in the next three months.

[Matt]

Okay.

[Zayn]

Okay. Have you seen anything? Like, have you seen.

[Leah]

The only thing they've showed us is the, like, the intro that happens on every episode and it.

[Zayn]

And how's it look?

[Leah]

First off, my scene, I wasn't even serving face, so I was like, can we change that? Like, it's the rough draft, but it does stink, though.

[Zayn]

I wish. I wish people in shows had more of a say on. Not, like, for drama stuff, but more like. Like, the. I feel like intro is so important. Like, is there a better shot of me you're gonna see that every single episode?

[Leah]

Do you think they were listening? It was kind of just to give us, like, an overall idea of what was, like, being done, which. It is really weird to see my face on one of those things. It's like, do you have a tagline?

[Matt]

Like, do you have a tagline like, I'm not here to make friends?

[Leah]

It's like, with the music.

[Matt]

Okay. Right, right.

[Leah]

And you're just like, oh, it's like.

[Zayn]

Like, Love Island.

[Leah]

Yes.

[Zayn]

So there's no, like, lines or suitcases. Yeah. Yeah. Dang. Okay. Okay.

[Leah]

That's all. They don't really give. Not kidding. We text them all the time, being like, hey, any updates? Nothing.

[Matt]

Okay.

[Heath]

It's just building hype or it just makes you more excited, though.

[Leah]

Yes. I did have drinks with one of the producers, and I was like. Because I am a little.

[Heath]

She tried to book season two. Yeah. Yeah, I did have drinks.

[Leah]

It's me. But I was like, be so for real. Like, is the show good and. Or is it, like, cheesy? Because I feel like it could come off that way. But he was like, no, no, it's really good. And I was like. And I trust his words, so I'm, like, so excited to see it. He just told me some, like, little snippets that, like, made it, and it just makes me.

[Zayn]

I just. I just know when. The thing is. The thing about you is because I've known you for, what, seven years, right? Seven, eight years. When you're in something, you're. You're committed, you're gonna be. You're gonna try to be the star of the show. And that's why I'm really excited to see whatever this is.

[Leah]

Well, I'm really excited, too, because obviously, like, going into the season, we didn't really know the cast. Like, we didn't really know each other. And it was kind of getting to know each other and our personality. So kind of. Not that we were on our best behaviors, but like learning everyone's like, how to deal with people. Right. But now that I know them, I feel like the real drama could start. You know what I mean? Or like, you, you're just so much more comfortable with the people that you're not going into it like, you know, like weary of people's feelings or whatever. I don't know. I'm just excited for just. If there's a season two.

[Zayn]

My only advice is what? Whenever that show comes out, just make sure you guys bring that drama right. To tick tock.

[Leah]

Oh, right.

[Heath]

To social media.

[Leah]

Do you know that I already have an Excel she with sounds and what I want to use Leah.

[Zayn]

That's exactly what I want to hear. That's exactly what I would do.

[Leah]

I'm right. I have 95 tick tock sounds or like ideas already on the Excel sheet. I am ready. I don't know what made the show. Like, there was just so much that happened, so I'm prepared for any type of outcome.

[Zayn]

They make Leah look like the Kraken. She's just the villain.

[Leah]

No, you're great. I'm actually the villain.

[Zayn]

It's crazy though, because every show there is like the fan favorite. There is the villain, there is the drama queen. Like, they, I mean, they. That's. Everybody's got their. That's what casting is about. They cast it because they're like, we want the show to do well and we need to cast the perfect people and we do need someone that is going to be the villain that people are not going to like.

[Leah]

I also just remember, like, every season is different. So maybe if I'm not the favorite this season, maybe it's the next or whatever.

[Zayn]

Yeah.

[Leah]

And also, I'm not mad to be a villain. I mean, look at Whitney on Broadway.

[Zayn]

I'm like, right, right, right. And I feel the thing is that what's good about. What's good about, like, social media too, is that you could really change people's perspectives on you just by going to social media. But you have to do it right, though.

[Leah]

Yes.

[Zayn]

But I feel like.

[Leah]

And also again, you guys know me. Like, I don't care what people say about me.

[Zayn]

Yeah.

[Leah]

So, yeah, I see.

[Zayn]

You just don't. Just, just don't be, just don't be like venmoing guys that are married trying to rekindle stuff.

[Matt]

Who did that?

[Leah]

Yeah, who did that?

[Matt]

Oh, you.

[Zayn]

No, no, no, no.

[Matt]

Another reality.

[Zayn]

I think I. I fucked it up.

[Leah]

I venmoed a guy because he blocked my number. I said, did you block.

[Zayn]

Yes.

[Matt]

This is coming back.

[Zayn]

Do you think. Do you think when people watch this they're going to be. That's the first. They're going to be like, wait, she looks familiar. I just don't know where. And by the way, guys, if you. If you're watching this and you've never seen past episodes or like any of my stuff, like in the past. Leah used to be my ex. Used to be my assistant for like a year and a half. Two years.

[Leah]

Two years.

[Zayn]

And it was really fun because I've known her for years before and so I decided to hire me. Hire. Hire her. And then she quit on me because she wanted to find other opportunities and

[Leah]

look where I'm at now. We're full circle now we'll collab together.

[Zayn]

Yeah. Honestly, that was like the best like quitting I've ever experienced. Because it might. I was like, I feel like I'm going to. I'm going to see her go far. I like, I can see it, you know, it's good.

[Matt]

Do you have an assistant now? Because I just don't live with you anymore. I don't know.

[Zayn]

It's not more of like what, like what Leo was doing. This is more like creative content.

[Matt]

Creative.

[Zayn]

And which.

[Leah]

I feel like you needed that.

[Zayn]

I need it. And you knew that too, I feel like.

[Heath]

And like you just couldn't do it well.

[Leah]

So like particular. And I. I don't know how to edit that.

[Zayn]

No, but that was. I mean, all of that. My assistant. I've had in the past 100. My fault. Like, I. I just had nothing to. I had no direction for them. It was more just like errands and stuff. And I knew that I needed somebody to help me with content. I just, I. It's just hard to find somebody like that. It's easy to find an assistant that can like, you know, run errands and, you know, do all that.

[Matt]

Right.

[Leah]

It was like a friend slash chef.

[Zayn]

Yeah. Yeah, you. Pretty much. I was pretty much paying you to be my friend.

[Leah]

And every Monday I'm like meal prepping and then you.

[Zayn]

We on the couch and then you would leave and I'd be like, oh, I just paid her for.

[Heath]

That

[Zayn]

was crazy.

[Leah]

It was a fun ride, though.

[Zayn]

It was. It was. It's fun.

[Matt]

So wait, what kind of cars are you looking at right now? You just came back from the car dealer.

[Leah]

Story short, I had to bring it to CarMax. I realized I Had Carmax care, extended warranty. And I go, why the Did I not bring it there in the beginning?

[Matt]

I know.

[Leah]

So I bring it there. And then I made the mistake of telling them I had brought it somewhere, and they're like, oh, now it's liability. So you need to bring it to Jeep, and da, da, da. They'll still use your insurance, whatever. So I bring it there, and the guy goes, not going to lie to you. It's probably going to be expensive. I would just get a appraisal right now and get a new car.

[Matt]

Okay.

[Leah]

I'm sitting there with the girl, and she's like, do you want to go test drive cars? I'm like, just like. I'm like, I wasn't prepared to, like, get a car.

[Zayn]

Anything to sell, you got to go

[Leah]

to a podcast at one, but can I come back? She's like, oh, my God. Yeah.

[Zayn]

Okay, Shout us out.

[Leah]

Yeah.

[Matt]

Do you have your eye on anything in particular?

[Leah]

I would like another Jeep.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Leah]

Well, my goal is to get a Bronco, and I'm just not there yet. So I'm like, I don't really want to get a new car, but if I'm gonna be paying 25k for my motor that's going out or something.

[Zayn]

Hey, if you pay Heath, he'll come out and negotiate for you. He saves me every car that I buy. He saves me a stupid amount of money.

[Leah]

I'm gonna call my dad.

[Heath]

Leah's like, I don't know. Like, I really like the Rolls Royce Specter.

[Zayn]

No, it has to be Lena, obviously.

[Matt]

Yeah, doable.

[Zayn]

But you. You helped me buy my Jeep, and you helped me buy my.

[Heath]

Actually, no guinea.

[Zayn]

You helped me buy my Lamborghini, and you also helped me buy my. The Range Rover, my G Wagon.

[Heath]

I was. I was there for the G Wagon.

[Zayn]

Who was I. Who Was I in 2017? I was out of my mind.

[Leah]

I love it.

[Zayn]

I'm just glad that, like, I. I'm glad that I just dipped my toe in that, like, world, and I'm just like, okay, this is ridiculous. It really is. It's ridiculous. I should not be driving a fucking Lamborghini Urus.

[Leah]

But if you can, why not?

[Zayn]

I honestly, I don't know why I thought having a car like that would bring me more opportunities, and I did

[Matt]

it, and it didn't bring me to opportunities. It's one of those things you tell

[Heath]

yourself yes to justify. Like, if I pull up in this, people will respect me. They're gonna know I mean business. Yeah. And they're gonna they're gonna offer me crazy deals and you're like, I'll take the car.

[Zayn]

So stupid. Yeah, I just wasn't thinking.

[Heath]

But meanwhile, I'm in the background, like, do it.

[Zayn]

Also, it helped a lot that he, like, loves that shit. So, like, it felt good when I got something. He was like my biggest support. He was like the most excited and he would like, yeah, he was just like, he would just be excited for me when I had these expensive vehicles.

[Matt]

I hate buying cars, though.

[Heath]

Like the best thing in the world.

[Matt]

I. It's. It's pretty frustrating. It's great having a buddy and someone there to like, negotiate it, but why does it have to be this complicated? Yeah, just buying a vehicle. I like CarMax because there's no haggling. It's straight up. They're not going to like, wheel and deal with, you know what you're getting. Yeah, but it's. I remember go. Before going in, I was watching all these tick tocks, trying to, like, understand all these tips and tricks on how to handle it, learn to walk away. But I brought Mike and negotiated. All went well, but it's just like,

[Zayn]

I'm just like it. I'm personally, I'm terrible negotiator. I'm really bad. Like, anytime they Say price. I'm just like, okay, me too. I'm like, like, I sounds great. Because I just feel bad in my head is like, oh, I don't want to take this salesperson's, like, right. Income, because that's his. You know, he has a family to feed. He has rent. Like, I don't want to have to. Because when they go down, their payment goes down, their commission goes down.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Zayn]

So I just like.

[Leah]

But when do you think that they made it higher so that they can.

[Matt]

Because they. Sometimes they want to sell more cars because then they get bonuses based on how many cars they sold, not really the commission. They're trying to hit their quotas.

[Zayn]

Yeah, but it's.

[Matt]

That's. And it's crazy. There's certain car dealers who get like, 100 sales, like, a month, and then there's some guys who can only sell, like, 12. Like, you're talking about.

[Zayn]

Are you talking about dealerships or sales?

[Matt]

Just salesmen. Car salesmen. How some people are just naturally gifted at selling. Yeah. I'm just fascinated by people who have it figured out and are able to, like, be the top guy.

[Heath]

I think it's just if you're passionate, like, I would sell the shit out of a car because, like, I know them in and out. Like, I like it. It's. It's fun to me. Like, dude, you got to check out this feature. It does this. It does this. Like, I would sit with the person, be like, no, like, let me show you the rundown. But I feel like there's some people that, like, it could be a job for them. They might not be as interested or invested in the car is like, another worker would. They're like, yeah, I guess if you like it, like, you know.

[Matt]

Right.

[Zayn]

And. And this is also buying a car. I feel like, like, just a human reaction is, like, usually guilt. Like, every time I bought, like, I

[Heath]

buy, like, oh, yeah.

[Zayn]

Whenever I'd buy a new car, I'd feel guilt immediately.

[Matt]

Buyer's remorse.

[Zayn]

Buyer's remorse. And. And they do such a good job of making you so not guilty about this purchase that it, like, it just makes you feel good. But then once you leave them and you go home, you get all that guilt that you should have felt before the purchase settles in. It's really interesting.

[Heath]

I'll never forget when we went to the Mercedes dealership. I was with Zane, and we literally just pulled in just to, like, look like dead ass. Just to look. And the salesman comes up and he starts talking. He's like, oh, we'll get you out the door in this today. And Zayn looked him dead in the eye. First thing he said was, I'm not buying the car today. I just want to look at what they look like. I think they're cool. I'm not buying the car. An hour later, he's.

[Zayn]

Did you. Did you hear what he said? Right after I said that, After I was, like, stern with him, he goes, that's what they all say.

[Heath]

Oh, yes, yes, yes.

[Zayn]

Literally said that. And I left with a card that day. It was unbelievable. But that was. That was the one where you negotiated it down like it was 30K. You saved me like, 30, 40K. I was.

[Matt]

And it's kind of crazy, too. Car salesmen are also playing the owners as well. Or, like, the managers of the car dealership, too. Like, if you're saying, hey, I'm just looking to pay just 300amonth, that's all I want. They'll. They'll then go in and tell the guy a totally different price, like, saying, can we meet them on this? Like, they'll make it even, like, lower as well. So in the guy back, okay, that's fine. And then he'll come back to you and go, yeah, we can do the 300. Even though he just told the guy.

[Zayn]

They make it seem like they're talking, like they're, like, chatting.

[Matt]

They'll get more as well, but they already got approval on getting this rate, and so they're all playing each other as well.

[Zayn]

Yeah, it's crazy.

[Matt]

And there's so much, like, bullying with, like, car dealers as well. Like, all between each other and who's stealing each other's clients as well.

[Zayn]

Yeah, it's crazy.

[Matt]

I listen to a whole podcast where they just mic'd up car dealers all.

[Zayn]

It was like a car dealer. Car dealer podcast.

[Matt]

Yeah. It's on this. It's this American Life, which covers all different types of stories, but there's a cars episode that's all about car dealers. It's wild.

[Heath]

Let me. Let me know what you want, though, Leah. I'll start looking. I'll send you some options.

[Leah]

I'll show you the one that I looked at before I left.

[Heath]

Okay.

[Leah]

Because it looks like a good deal, but I would have took it as is, so I want to see what you have to say about it.

[Heath]

Oh, let me check it out.

[Zayn]

Heath, completely off topic. I'm. I'm maneuvering right now. Did you see the music video Reid is in?

[Heath]

Dude, I just saw it right before recording, and I texted him, Harry Styles

[Matt]

new music Video you.

[Zayn]

Yeah. Did you see it?

[Matt]

No. Heath was explaining about it before we clicked record.

[Heath]

Dude. Him and Harry.

[Zayn]

It's him and Harry, dude. It's insane.

[Matt]

That's amazing.

[Zayn]

And, guys, by the way, this is our. Yeah, this is our friend. Our. He's a really good friend of ours who does. He's a stunt. Pretty much a stunt guy. And he's in a bunch of movies.

[Heath]

He.

[Matt]

He was in David's vlogs where he would, like, set him on fire.

[Zayn]

He's been doing a bunch of different stuff, and he's in a ton of different movies. He just doesn't post it. And so seeing this, especially for someone that never posts his work or stuff that he's in, this was such a surprise. And it's so like, look at this. What a shot. Like, bro, he's gonna like being able to frame that in your house. So sick.

[Heath]

I text, well, I'll read you the whole conversation. It was really funny. I texted him. I was just like, hairy in all caps with exclamation question mark. And I was like, dude, that's insane. Good. And he was like, thanks, B.B. what you up to? And I was, like, about to record this pod and talk about you right now. Hey. He goes, it was sick. I did the explosion in the car and it got hot. I was wearing three layers of fire gear and helmet etc, and the outer layer got completely torched. But it was so fun. Harry was cool and remembered me from when I worked on Dunkirk with him. Forgot he was in Dunkirk.

[Zayn]

Guys, guys, this is tea. You're not getting this anywhere. This is exclusive with. We should bring him on.

[Heath]

And then I was like, not you mogging. Harry in the thumbnail. And he was like, what is mogging?

[Leah]

Okay, this new word everyone's saying.

[Zayn]

What is that?

[Matt]

I'm so out of the loopicular looks, maxing thing. Wait, I've heard about mogging. Wait.

[Heath]

I sent him a screenshot and it was. It says, mogging is a Gen Z slang term for looking significantly better, more attractive, or more stylish than people around you.

[Leah]

But it sounds bad. Like mugging. Mogging.

[Matt]

Mogging. Yeah.

[Zayn]

You look. So is this you think you look? It's like, you think you look like that, or.

[Heath]

No, no, no. It's like if. Like, if somebody mogs you, like somebody standing next to you that looks significantly

[Zayn]

better than you, they're mogging.

[Leah]

Me, who's mogging in this room.

[Zayn]

Got it. I just got a haircut, so I feel like I'm logging. I'm mogging right Now.

[Heath]

Yeah. Zane's looks maxing right now.

[Zayn]

Yeah. Thank you. Thank you. Maxi. This is my Max.

[Heath]

Your looks maxing.

[Leah]

This conversation makes me feel so old.

[Matt]

It originates from amog, alpha male of group. So that's what the mogang comes from, is alpha male. So yeah, it's an alpha male dominant kind of thing.

[Heath]

And then. And then Matt's over there. Just gesture maxing right now.

[Zayn]

Oh yeah. Oh, for sure.

[Matt]

What a time to be alive. What is jester maxing? A real thing?

[Heath]

Yeah, yeah.

[Matt]

What does this mean?

[Heath]

But hold on.

[Matt]

It's so.

[Heath]

It's such a perfect word for what it is. Like it sounds really stupid but then I looked it up, I was like, okay. It's cool.

[Matt]

Okay. Jester maxing is an Internet slang term that refers to the practice of over the top frantic entertaining or acting like a fool to gain attention, social clout or comp. Compensate for perceived lack of physical attractiveness. How dare you. He. But I can. I can see. I kind of.

[Zayn]

What?

[Heath]

But like you're acting like a jester just being a clown. Just.

[Matt]

I just want people to have a good time.

[Zayn]

Jester maxing is a great word, dude.

[Heath]

It's so condescending.

[Matt]

I love it. I kind of like it though. Not right.

[Heath]

That's.

[Matt]

To identify it. Next time I'm like out socially, be like that dude's just remaxing.

[Leah]

Does that fall in the same category as aura farming or whatever?

[Zayn]

Yeah, yeah, it's the same. Same world.

[Matt]

Now clarify aura farming too. That's just like creating a better vibe for yourself. Aura farming is the intentional, often repetitive act of performing actions to appear cool, confident or charismatic. Specifically to boost one's social standing or aura points. Ok, so what did I say the other day?

[Leah]

I said something, my friend's like, you're so millennial. Say aura farm or aura. I was like, I'm not going to be running around saying what.

[Zayn]

What did you say though? What did you say instead of the.

[Leah]

That I gotta remember what I said.

[Zayn]

Vibes.

[Leah]

Oh, I think it was vibey or it was vibing.

[Matt]

Oh, wow.

[Leah]

It was swaggy. I think I said.

[Zayn]

Yikes.

[Matt]

That's a little. That's very 2013. Yeah, that is.

[Zayn]

And swaggy is like a little just

[Leah]

like I was driving. Oh, that's swaggy. You know. No. Really? Oh, I thought it was fun.

[Zayn]

That's. How are the. The kids that you nanny? How do they talk? Do they talk like that?

[Leah]

I don't nanny.

[Heath]

She doesn't. She's a star now. Zane, I'm A personal assistant.

[Leah]

Oh. But I am around them. Yeah.

[Zayn]

My bad, my bad. Your. Your close friends. I just.

[Leah]

No, but they do. What's. What is what he always says leave up my butt.

[Zayn]

I'm sure. I'm sorry.

[Matt]

What. How old is Jesus?

[Zayn]

11 to shut the up.

[Heath]

11.

[Leah]

Let me think of the word that he always says.

[Matt]

Yacht.

[Heath]

Okay. Okay. Never heard.

[Matt]

Like, yeah, I thought was big butt.

[Zayn]

Like. Like.

[Heath]

Like God damn.

[Matt]

God damn.

[Zayn]

Oh, God. Oh, my. I thought it was like, oh, dang. You got a big yacht. Like a big yacht. Like Matt.

[Heath]

Matt's got episode.

[Zayn]

Matt episode. A big yet.

[Matt]

I'm. I'm gonna try. I feel like there were so many people giving me tips in the comments on the last episode on how to work out my glutes. Gyat is an African American vernacular English exclamation derived from heavily emphasized pronunciation of God damn. Specifically. God damn.

[Zayn]

I love it. It great. All the.

[Matt]

All.

[Zayn]

I feel like every single one of these phrases say twitch. Twitch right after, like, oh, some twitch streamer.

[Heath]

Oh, my. Wait, that's so funny, because I. I knew it was that, but then I saw something else that it was a acronym for girl yo ass thick.

[Matt]

Oh, that works too. That works.

[Zayn]

You guys remember that video where it's like they're at. They're in a court. They're in a court. A house. Like, on trial.

[Heath]

No, no, no, Zayn, it was at church.

[Zayn]

No, it was in the courthouse. And the. The lawyer looks. The lawyer is reading something that he said to her. He's like. And then he says, your honor, girl, you are thicker than a bowl of oatmeal.

[Matt]

Oh, yeah.

[Heath]

I thought you were talking about a different clip.

[Zayn]

There was one where he's in, like, handcuffs and he's like.

[Matt]

Jester's like, damn right I said that.

[Leah]

Trying to pick her up and saying, girl, you're quicker than a bowl of oatmeal.

[Zayn]

I love. I love that. I love. I love that she, like, puts a voice to it. It, like, she doesn't just read it. She just goes, girl, you are thicker than a bowl of oatmeal.

[Matt]

Yeah. Oh, my.

[Zayn]

And I can't believe this is real. That's insane.

[Heath]

Zane, I thought you were talking about the clip that just went viral. It was like, a pastor who was sitting there up. He had, like, the Bible open, and he's like, you know, he's preaching, he's doing his thing, and then a lady walks by, and he's just, like, talking. He goes, lord, forgive me, for I have sinned.

[Matt]

Oh, my.

[Heath]

Yeah.

[Zayn]

It's.

[Heath]

It's just so perfect. Back.

[Leah]

Somebody pray for pastor.

[Zayn]

You fell into temptation and it wasn't a bit. I'm surprised he did that up there. That's crazy.

[Leah]

Do you guys twitch, like, live streaming?

[Matt]

Right?

[Zayn]

Like. Like. Like, oh, oh, live stream.

[Matt]

No, I don't. I don't watch any Twitch streamers, but I like, watch clips of their content on, like, my feed.

[Leah]

Okay, but do you watch, like, the ones, like, the Island Boy ones? The live streamers?

[Zayn]

Like the Island Boys.

[Matt]

The Island Boys. Boys.

[Zayn]

Oh, the twins.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Zayn]

I didn't know they did.

[Leah]

Group of people on live streams. I'm so invested into that trash.

[Zayn]

And they're, like, doing 24 hours.

[Leah]

Like, they're 24 hours.

[Zayn]

Wow.

[Leah]

And all their drama, baby mama drama, custody battles. Like, I got this girl Brie Olsen on there with her. Custody battle 2K and baby winch. Like, it's.

[Zayn]

Oh, you're following all this right now.

[Leah]

Because I. I'm so invested at night, like, when I'm scrolling, and then now it's just my feed.

[Zayn]

I can't believe. Oh, it's your feed. I thought you were sitting there on Twitch watching the live clips of it.

[Matt]

I like vanilla mace. Is that her name?

[Zayn]

Her clips?

[Heath]

Yeah.

[Matt]

Yes. She's just funny. She's just. I love her attitude.

[Zayn]

That clip you sent me of her and her friend going down the elevator, he. They're in a parking garage and this girl was trying to find their car. They look. I feel like they were high. It just. That was the vibe of the whole video. She. She and her friend get. They look. They look across and they see a ramp going down. They're like, oh, I. Let's take the elevator. They go in the elevator, they come out the other side. They walk around, and it's literally right down the ramp. But it was this whole. It was this whole thing that they were trying to find.

[Matt]

Yeah, they.

[Zayn]

You have to watch it. It's hard to explain it.

[Matt]

Like, they went into the elevator thinking that they were, like, on a whole new floor and they just had gone down. Just like. I love her friend gestures to the wall going. We legit. Just went in this and went down.

[Zayn]

Just so funny.

[Leah]

Is that the Sherman Oaks Galleria?

[Matt]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Leah]

That is very confusing. That's where we do our voiceovers. And that's like the office there is. I'm always lost.

[Heath]

I have a. A Florida man segment.

[Zayn]

I love Florida man segments. Let's go.

[Heath]

So it's this thing. We're trying to get it to catch on.

[Zayn]

Yeah, we're trying to revive it.

[Heath]

Talk about the show stuff that's going on in Florida. And I thought this one was perfect, too, because it's something Matt and I talk about all the time. And it has to do with quicksand.

[Matt]

Oh, boy. Which we always thought would be a thing as adults. We'd be seeing quicksand all the time. As a kid, you think, like, that is in the world.

[Zayn]

Yeah.

[Heath]

Also. And then as you get older, you're like, oh, it's not real. It's just fake. Quicksand is real.

[Matt]

It is.

[Zayn]

It's definitely rare.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Leah]

Is it only in certain parts of

[Matt]

the world, like bogs.

[Zayn]

I thought. I thought you only see this in, like, the Amazon forest, like in the middle of a forest.

[Heath]

I had no idea. But there's this guy in Florida who got stuck in quicksand and these people came out to, like, rescue him, and it's like, up to his shoulders.

[Matt]

Oh, no.

[Zayn]

What is?

[Heath]

Stuck. Stuck. One of the guys goes out there to try to help him, and then that guy gets stuck in the quicksand. Watch, dude. Watch.

[Zayn]

Oh, my God.

[Heath]

It is crazy.

[Zayn]

Oh, that's Miramar.

[Heath]

That's. That's the guy who went out to go help and got.

[Matt]

And that's like proper sand, too. Like I was saying, quicksand, like, really is just like.

[Zayn]

That looks like normal.

[Matt]

You're sinking in.

[Zayn]

That's crazy.

[Matt]

And so, you know, they're bringing out ladders, which I always think is. I know that ladders are useful in quicksand, but it's like a way for them to hold on to, but without get. Oh. Because they can walk on it without sinking more into it. That makes sense. Oh, my gosh. And it goes into the night. Oh, dear. You know what always me about quicksand is that. Remember the movie Never Ending Story?

[Zayn]

Yeah. We've talked.

[Matt]

And that horse.

[Zayn]

Yeah.

[Matt]

Trail or whatever in that little.

[Heath]

But dude. What. Play the end of the clip, Jared, and just listen to what's, like, the last thing said you say, considering his

[Leah]

mental state, no charges will be filed against him.

[Heath]

You can get in trouble maybe.

[Zayn]

Well, it was he. Was he on the run? Was he trespassing?

[Heath]

I don't know. It's just like, charges will not be.

[Leah]

But it's like, do they know where quicksand is?

[Heath]

How you can get arrested for getting stuck in quicksand?

[Matt]

Well, what I'm also thinking of, there's probably a sign that's saying if you. This is a. Proceed in this area with caution. And if you get stuck you can get fined and get in trouble. You know how there's that. Really. I think it's in Michigan. There's that really steep hill that's like on a beach and people. And there's like a sign that says, if you get stuck and we have to get you up from this hill, you're gonna be fined $5,000. And.

[Zayn]

Oh, it's. It's like a. It's like a ride on the. Like the ambulance. Like, you know, they're gonna.

[Matt]

They. Yeah. So. But apparently.

[Zayn]

Which is crazy. I feel like. I feel like that these type of situations. I don't understand how you can charge somebody unless there was a sign that says, like, go at your own risk.

[Heath]

But also, like, the. Considering his mental state, like, I wanna. I. I need to figure out what exactly was going on with this.

[Zayn]

His mental state.

[Matt]

He might have a mental disability and just doesn't know.

[Zayn]

Oh, is that what they meant?

[Leah]

I thought they meant, like, how was he doing? Because they've been trying to pull him out.

[Zayn]

Oh, yeah. I thought it was. I thought I would be traumatized if I was going lower and lower in quicksand for all day. It looked like they were there.

[Leah]

It's like digging and it's still just going.

[Zayn]

And the more you push yourself out, the more sucks you in. It's insane. Yeah, it's wild.

[Heath]

Also, another scary thing too is, like,

[Leah]

where do you go after that?

[Heath]

Skiing or snowboarding? Like, you know how, like, up against the trees? The snow is super soft. It's like quicksand. It will suck you in and you will get trapped.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Heath]

Like, up against those. Dude, it's terrifying.

[Matt]

And I think about that with sinkholes all the time. Just like random sinkholes. People who are just at intersections, just some random suburb, and then just the ground goes and like, their cars just crash. I'm always like, insane processing that. Like in a car, being like, how did I just.

[Zayn]

The earth is falling. Like, it's just like. That feeling would be insane driving, just

[Matt]

knowing that there's just these. These gaps of no foundation underneath us.

[Leah]

I didn't know about that one.

[Zayn]

You know, also what I think about too, like, you know, like, on the side of, like, when you're going to Big Bear and you're driving up the mountain, like, and it's like off the side of the mountain. I'm just like, one day. One day. If that. If that rock decides that it wants to just. It doesn't want to hold up anymore.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Leah]

The whole avalanche.

[Zayn]

There's no falling rocks. Yeah.

[Leah]

Or Is that just snow?

[Heath]

Look up. There's this. Well, Mariah's brother was telling me about it because he's like, next time you come out, I want to take you there. There's this place not too far away in Pennsylvania that, like, got abandoned and all underground in. The whole city is on fire and has been on fire for, like, years. Wait, what underneath the floor of this town is just burning on fire?

[Matt]

It's because there's. Is there gas, like, that's coming up from the ground that is causing it to be like. Like this eternal flame, like, going.

[Heath]

I don't know. I wanted to. Yeah, like, just under. Under the. Like everything is just so.

[Zayn]

It's. It's only under. It's under this city or under this.

[Heath]

Yeah. I don't know if it's like the root system or just like, you know how there's like, dirt.

[Matt]

It's a mine. It's a mine. Fire. So. But then I bet everyone had to move out of this town because they were just like this.

[Zayn]

They're all out.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Heath]

There's like. Apparently there's like 10 people that, like, still live there, but I think it's

[Matt]

been burning for like 50 years or something, since 1983.

[Zayn]

What if that's where he. That's the entrance to hell is.

[Matt]

Oh, t. In Pennsylvania.

[Zayn]

And the devil is alive.

[Heath]

Bottoms up. And the devil laughs.

[Matt]

It is also true. Like, Seattle, I learned, is like, there's a whole separate layer underneath Seattle that they, like, built. I'm trying to describe this, Right? So basically, Seattle, I think, like, the city was sinking at one point back, like, in the twenties, and they were like, we have to build a whole new layer on top of this city to prevent it from, like, still sinking. So there's all of these streets and old building fronts. They had to build on top of it, but. But that's all still underneath.

[Zayn]

They couldn't, like, fill it. Like, why?

[Matt]

It was the. It was 19. Okay. The two level section of town existed until 1907 when the bubonic plague hit Seattle and panic. City leaders shut down the underground and it wasn't evacuated until the 1960s.

[Zayn]

And they can't just fill it up.

[Matt]

It's still there. There's old fronts of buildings and everything.

[Heath]

It's a lot of, like, major cities, too. I don't know. Could be the mud flood.

[Zayn]

The mud flood.

[Leah]

I like that.

[Zayn]

What's that? What's the mud flood?

[Heath]

There's like a bunch of theories about this, like, mud flood that happened and, like, buried, like, first layer of like buildings and stuff. And then they just like, we're like, fuck it. Just built on top of it after.

[Zayn]

I mean, we're human. We're humans. We're lazy. You know, I could see them doing that. Fuck it.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Heath]

Why dig it out?

[Zayn]

That's how I would do it.

[Matt]

I love abandoned things. It's so water, parks or in failed things too. I don't like when failure happens for like something that's important, like a rail system, but like, you know, lax. When you take off under, there's all those like streets but it's all blocked off. That was once a neighborhood that they were going to build. But then LAX was like, no, we need this land for like safety measures. And so that was all supposed to be like this subdivision. I think there were some model houses and people did live on it, but that's all residential streets of a neighborhood that they just got rid of. Wow.

[Heath]

Weird.

[Matt]

Oh, have you that. That's like the abandoned thing we fly over every time.

[Zayn]

And that was a neighborhood that was like a neighborhood it was a residential neighborhood. Did anything. That's crazy.

[Matt]

I didn't think there were houses on it at one point, but yeah. What were you saying?

[Heath]

He. Did you hear about the water park like Lake Lagoon thing they used to have halfway to Vegas? Vegas?

[Matt]

Yes.

[Heath]

I feel like, dude, and thinking about it, it's like perfect. And I wish it was still a thing, but it was like very, very short lived. But it was like this super dangerous, like toxic, disgusting water park that they built in the middle of nowhere. And it got like completely abandoned. But if you watch like the videos from back in the day, dude, people are like it, dude, it is so cool. And I'm like, oh.

[Zayn]

It was like. It was like people, people loved it. Yeah.

[Heath]

But then it was just like really like gross or something. It was in the middle of like the desert. Do you think get what it was called? But it was like some lagoon.

[Zayn]

I think I. I think water parks are going to become like something that we used to have. Like. I, I think I could see in like 10, 15 years. Water parks just don't exist anymore in this country.

[Matt]

Really.

[Heath]

They're pretty, they're pretty gross when you

[Zayn]

think they're just like. It's so unsanitary. And when you really, like when you really look at those slides, it's nasty. Right? When Heath or sorry, not Heath, my brother. We, we decided we wanted to go to Blizzard Beach. You know Blizzard beach in Florida? It's one of the big water parks in, in the. In Orlando. We wanted to get there first because, you know, the lines for water parks are so long because people take so long so their tubes hitting you. We got there. We got there there as soon as it opened. So we got to do every slide when there was nobody there. And you truly see how disgusting it is when there's nobody covering it. Because when you see people everywhere, it's like it. You can't really tell, but it. Everything was moldy and it was gross. After that day, I don't think our family ever went to a water park.

[Leah]

Really.

[Heath]

I do.

[Leah]

Thoroughly.

[Zayn]

It really grossed everybody out. I've always wanted to do the roll the, the water. Like the one it shoots like the water. The roller coaster water.

[Heath]

Oh, the one that you go off the edge. Off the edge and you like fly.

[Zayn]

No, no, it's like a big slide

[Heath]

and you just go like up in the air.

[Zayn]

Not that one, but Heath. I've always wanted to do that. But I could see me. My backup sciatica would be back immediately if I. Yeah, because dude, that's a. That's a tall fall. It's high, high, tall fall.

[Heath]

There's always like nasty band aids just floating around. Oh, just like, just going right by you on the lazy river.

[Leah]

Have you guys been to a great wolf lot Lodge?

[Matt]

You know what? I haven't.

[Leah]

That one I like. I mean, I did. I've just been there because I'm a nanny. But I would love. I love going there.

[Zayn]

What's. It's here.

[Matt]

It's like an indoor water park resort for families like an hour and a half away. There's one in Grapevine, Texas. There's a handful like all across the world now.

[Leah]

Oh, it's cool.

[Zayn]

Heath, isn't there one in Lifetime? You were saying?

[Heath]

Yeah. They have a whole water park.

[Zayn]

Why would they have a water park at a lifetime?

[Heath]

Because it's sick.

[Zayn]

It just doesn't.

[Leah]

The Lifetime gym.

[Zayn]

It's in this gym. It doesn't make sense to me though. Is it? Is it?

[Matt]

Something's for the kids. Well, dad goes lift some weights, you

[Heath]

know, Zane, look at that.

[Matt]

That, that's fun in your gym.

[Heath]

And then go, go look at the go. Two pictures over to the right. Yeah. Dude, they're sick.

[Zayn]

Wait, that's insane. Wait, this is the one that's yours.

[Heath]

They. They all like. Most of them have like a crazy water park and they've got like cabanas in the back. Oh, all right.

[Zayn]

Oh, they serve. Oh, they have a bar at the gym too, here, which. Oh, no, no. The Lifetime. When I went to Nashville. Yeah.

[Leah]

Alcohol.

[Zayn]

Yeah.

[Matt]

At the gym.

[Zayn]

Yeah.

[Heath]

Crazy.

[Leah]

I tell you about my, my, my dog park? No, it's a full bar.

[Matt]

Oh, I've heard about this.

[Leah]

Dog people.

[Zayn]

Dog people. Yeah.

[Matt]

Membership.

[Leah]

Yes. But I got. So remember the. The time we were trying to get cremota in there?

[Zayn]

Yeah.

[Leah]

At the time I didn't have Rue, but we met with like the owner of the park and whatever.

[Zayn]

Yeah.

[Leah]

Anyway, by the time I got Rue, I was like, I need to bring her here. It's literally so fun. Like everyone looks like Coachella for dogs. Lord DIY brings her dog here.

[Matt]

Yeah. I was just about to say, and it's so fun.

[Leah]

Like the other week they had snow day and they had the whole park with snow and all the dogs had their ski goggles on. But so cute.

[Heath]

Oh, damn.

[Matt]

They got money.

[Leah]

Really good event.

[Zayn]

So expensive.

[Leah]

It's like 120amonth. But on they had a trivia night, they had these saki based margaritas. I got. And I found Liam, the owner and I literally go I go, hey, Liam, it's me. I'm Zayn's assistant. And he goes, oh, my God, how are you? I was like, oh, I'm a member now. Like, I have my dog. He goes, gotta get you on the pack list. I'm like, what's the pack list? So Now I pay 40 bucks a month.

[Zayn]

I feel like. I feel like it's a great place to meet other people too. Like, meet a.

[Leah]

Meet such a good conversation. Like, yeah, there could be a cute guy there. And I could be like, oh, which one's yours?

[Zayn]

Exactly? It's a.

[Matt]

How's your dating life?

[Zayn]

Oh, non existent.

[Matt]

I bet a lot of come to the dog park.

[Zayn]

Yeah, yeah, I just like, I, you know, I'm like, very private, you know that, like, no dates.

[Leah]

You should come to the dog park, though.

[Zayn]

Yeah, but like, I want to bring a dog. Yeah, exactly.

[Leah]

I'll be there.

[Zayn]

I'll bring it. I'll bring a. A fake.

[Heath]

Yeah, don't. Don't show up to a dog park. A dog.

[Matt]

I've done that.

[Leah]

You can't.

[Heath]

That's mad weird, you guys.

[Leah]

It's a dog member. They have to.

[Zayn]

To, like, talk to. To, like me.

[Matt]

No, just, like, had a couple of beers with friends. When we walk by a dog park, let's just go in and like, I don't know, look at people's dogs.

[Leah]

Your dog has to pass a test to get here. So you can't just bring a ram dog, but you could bring.

[Zayn]

Wait, what's the. What's the test that you have to.

[Leah]

It's like a temperament test. So you bring your dog in, they put this yellow collar on.

[Heath]

That should be mandatory. That's good.

[Matt]

Not friendly, but. No.

[Leah]

I don't know to how. R R. I started seeing her get nasty at the end and I was

[Zayn]

like, oh, my God. Wait, go back. That's. That's ariana. Look, the DJ. That DJ's all the parties.

[Leah]

Wait, that's amazing. Yeah, on Fridays they do sounds and hounds. It's the DJ night. Woof, woof.

[Matt]

Who let the dogs out?

[Leah]

It's actually so fun. And yeah, they have a bar and food and.

[Zayn]

Oh, Lauren's dogs are so cute.

[Matt]

It's like the target dog. Right?

[Zayn]

What kind of dogs are those? I forget what it's called.

[Matt]

It's a crazy skull.

[Zayn]

Do you know what it's called? The. That breed breed?

[Heath]

I do, but I'm drawing a blank right now. It's something.

[Matt]

Something English bull terrier.

[Zayn]

Oh, I thought it was a. I thought it was A different name.

[Matt]

You know what I learned recently about animals? Like, okay, think of, like, just animals that we know.

[Zayn]

Okay.

[Matt]

Like, what are they? The generic animals that we know.

[Zayn]

When I think of, like, when I think of an animal, what's the first thing I think of? I think of a lion. Elephant.

[Matt]

Yes.

[Zayn]

I think a giraffe.

[Matt]

Yes.

[Zayn]

I don't think of a dog.

[Matt]

Now, don't you think it's interesting that there are tens of thousands of different animals all across the world? Why are these the certain an we as like, in American culture know?

[Zayn]

Because when we were as kids, that's the. And that's where the animals that we would see in our books.

[Matt]

Exactly. And why were those the animals that were seen in our books?

[Zayn]

You got to go a layer deeper, Zay.

[Matt]

I'm curious if you guys could maybe figure it out, but it's something I learned. But it's okay if you don't know

[Zayn]

Way deeper than, like, what we.

[Matt]

There's a reason why that these are, like, the main animals that we see.

[Zayn]

Because EP and Z. Because obviously.

[Leah]

Because it was in the files.

[Zayn]

Yeah, it was in the files. No. Can you, can you explain why?

[Matt]

It's because those animals are. Can be trained to perform stunts. Now to add the extra layer to it, basically around like the Industrial Revolution. Before that time, you could ask any American what an elephant or what a giraffe is, they would have had no clue.

[Zayn]

Okay.

[Matt]

And once we created trains and rail systems, that's when the rise of the circus was. Started it. And so these were the first times as Americans that we were seeing what these other animals were. Are from all across the world. And because these animals, like tigers, bear, elephants and stuff, they can be trained to jump through hoops and, you know, I don't know, put their foot on a ball. All of that. That is why that's in our schema of just our generic go to animals is because it comes from the circus.

[Zayn]

Yeah, I mean, that makes complete sense.

[Matt]

There's all these different animals around the world that we could have been as popular as the ones we know. Yeah. But every time I, because of the

[Zayn]

circus, even the word animal, like, I, I, I immediately I think of the red box, the animal crackers, like the lion, the. It's just like, that's.

[Heath]

Aren't those circus cookies?

[Zayn]

Circus crackers.

[Heath]

And it all makes sense.

[Leah]

The circus cookies are the pink ones.

[Zayn]

Sorry, I was talking about Bar Barnum's.

[Heath]

Yeah.

[Matt]

Like Barnum and Baileys, which is the circus. But it used to be like they were all in A cage, like on a. Like on a train.

[Zayn]

It was. It was a red box and I remember yellow lines and they look like they were behind a cage.

[Matt]

And it had like a cloth, almost like a handle too, that you could like pick up. Yes, yes, yes. See, then they were like, let's not keep those animals behind cages.

[Zayn]

Right.

[Matt]

Let's let them roam free. But damn.

[Zayn]

Wow, that's crazy.

[Heath]

That just took me back.

[Leah]

Yeah, it's throwback.

[Matt]

Oh, I do love.

[Zayn]

Do you like, do you like playing animal?

[Matt]

Yeah, kinda. They were good in like elementary school when you got some animal crackers, you felt like you were getting like they were filling.

[Zayn]

No, I'm just like, those are the first ones as kids. We'd eat it, but like, oh, I'd let that dog in my mouth.

[Leah]

Yes. Why did we all live the same childhood?

[Zayn]

Yes. But dude, these frosted ones. These.

[Matt]

Oh, okay. Those are good. Those are elite, dude.

[Zayn]

These are. These are crack, bro.

[Leah]

You know what brought me back is I saw on Tick Tock the other day, this mom got her girls a pencil box. And then she's like, we gotta make bookmarkers. And she did the coloring and then put the glue so it dries and you pull it off the book.

[Zayn]

The.

[Leah]

You know that your pencil box has that square.

[Heath]

Yes.

[Leah]

And it would say like something make sticker.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Leah]

And then you put the. You would color it, you'd make a design, and then you put Elmer's glue

[Zayn]

and you would make like a bookmark.

[Leah]

Yes. And it would dry and you would

[Matt]

peel it off the top. Leah. Yes. I'm just using DIY bookmark glue. Pencil box.

[Zayn]

Yeah.

[Matt]

This is like a 90s kid thing. Yeah. You would put the glue.

[Zayn]

Yes.

[Leah]

And that made me want to buy a pencil box. I'm like, I used to love this.

[Zayn]

Yeah.

[Leah]

I put it in my desk like after class and then I'd come back.

[Heath]

That lumpy ass bookmark.

[Zayn]

You know that they made money. Literally every kid had it. Every single person that went to school had that.

[Heath]

It was like, it was mandatory.

[Matt]

Okay, but for school supplies for you guys, did your parents go and buy your school supplies, like for yourself or did you buy like the school supplies pack? It was a way of like a bundle deal that you got all your school supplies instead of having to.

[Leah]

We didn't got a list.

[Matt]

No, we got a list and then

[Zayn]

we give it to her and our parents would have to. Would go to like Office Max. Office Depot.

[Matt]

These are bubbles. It was just a way to like save money. Maybe it was a PTA Thing. It was also, like, a fundraiser. It was a way to also help kids who didn't have that much money, like, get it for a bulk discount. It was a good program, but that's for me. School supplies. We never had to go shop for it. We would just.

[Leah]

That was my favorite.

[Zayn]

That was getting the fresh pencils and fresh folders. Oh, yes.

[Leah]

Pencil pouch.

[Matt]

Remember, there was Crayola, and then there was rose art. And rose art kind of.

[Zayn]

Oh, I don't. You know what?

[Leah]

Like, oilier, wasn't it?

[Zayn]

Rose.

[Matt]

Our crayons would just, like. You would go, like, all right, here we go,

[Heath]

bro.

[Zayn]

They were.

[Matt]

They.

[Zayn]

They came out like wax.

[Matt]

It was, like, more waxy.

[Zayn]

It was, like, nice.

[Matt]

I met a girl who's, like, the heir, the heiress to rose art.

[Zayn]

Shut up.

[Matt]

And she was like, my family photo. Rose art. I was like, really? Your crown sucks. Like, but she died laughing. She really, like, she was surprised I knew. I'm like, oh, yeah, I need rosary.

[Zayn]

Wait, she told you that? She. She was like, oh, I'm the heir. Like, how did you find out?

[Matt]

What was it? Oh, she was showing me a photo of her brother, and her brother was like, as a kid in a rose art ad. And I'm like, he modeled for rose art? She's like, well, no, this is my family.

[Zayn]

She knew what she was doing.

[Matt]

Yeah, Yeah. I was like, fast.

[Zayn]

And that's exactly what I would do. What I would do, too.

[Heath]

The one picture to show.

[Zayn]

Yeah, right. This is my brother.

[Leah]

My brother.

[Zayn]

He's clearly in a commercial. Like, obviously,

[Matt]

dandelions coming back as a crayon color for. For Crayola.

[Zayn]

Is that gray?

[Matt]

No, it's a yellow one. But everyone. It was, like, popular in the 90s for us as kids, but then they got rid of it, and then Girl on Tick Tock was, like, the number one biggest fan of Dandelion. She would collect all.

[Zayn]

Oh, it was mustard yellow. Yes, I remember that.

[Matt]

Good yellow.

[Zayn]

That is a good yellow.

[Matt]

Yellow was, like, too bright, and it

[Leah]

was like, you couldn't, like, get gray from dandelion.

[Zayn]

I was thinking of, like, an actor, because I don't remember, like, the color, but, like, you just said, dandelion. In my head. Dandelion's great.

[Matt]

You're thinking of. Yeah. What are those called?

[Zayn]

Dandelions.

[Matt]

Oh, that's what they turn into.

[Zayn]

Yeah.

[Matt]

When they die.

[Zayn]

That. Honestly, I had. I had same thought as Zayn. I was like, what? It's going crazy. I thought I was going crazy.

[Matt]

Yo, I'm going kind of crazy. I thought Those were two separate.

[Leah]

Like, me, too. I didn't know that.

[Zayn]

I didn't even know. I didn't even know. I thought.

[Matt]

And they're always next to each other, but I always thought it was just two different buds. Oh, my gosh.

[Zayn]

I forgot that yellow dandelions existed. I didn't. I didn't know D line was a flower. I thought it was a cotton ball.

[Matt]

What color. Other color are dandelions lions?

[Zayn]

No, I just. Whenever I think of dandelions or whenever I hear it, I think of the white fuzzball.

[Matt]

I don't think the dandelion. It's just. Yeah. It's dying dead, and it's about to spread its seeds into the wind.

[Zayn]

Yeah. That's a great little trivia. Like, what's one thing that's more popular when it's dead? Oh, you know how they do that? Like, what's more. Like the trick questions?

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Leah]

I'm really bad at this.

[Zayn]

That's.

[Heath]

Yeah.

[Zayn]

I thought there were two different flowers. That's so funny. Did we all. We all are finding this out for the first time, all five of us.

[Leah]

I know. Yeah.

[Matt]

Because you never get, like, happy. It's just, like, overnight, it just turns into this white puff ball.

[Leah]

But can we watch, like, the evolution of it, like, change?

[Zayn]

Yeah, let's. You know, let's take the next hour.

[Matt]

Oh. Because we. Okay. We're gonna recognize all these phases, and we're like, oh, there it is.

[Zayn]

Oh, okay.

[Matt]

Okay. It blooms lovely. And then here it goes.

[Zayn]

Oh, okay.

[Leah]

Oh,

[Zayn]

okay. So we see that a lot.

[Matt]

Yes. But I would say that means it's about to bloom.

[Heath]

Boom.

[Matt]

And then it just. Boom.

[Zayn]

Into a dandelion.

[Matt]

Yes. That's.

[Leah]

It all makes sense.

[Zayn]

It looks like crunch bowls about to pop out that flower.

[Matt]

Yo. I need to go touch some grass. I have not gotten out.

[Zayn]

Touch some dandelions.

[Matt]

Yeah, just. I need to go, like, just sit around in a field.

[Zayn]

That's okay.

[Heath]

Whoa.

[Zayn]

What then? What happens to this? I guess we'll find out what happens.

[Matt]

I bet it just like. Yeah.

[Zayn]

What a beautiful way to die. That. What a beautiful dad. Yeah. Worthless. Actually.

[Leah]

It's kind of cute, though. It's a wish.

[Zayn]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Leah]

So it's like everyone so insane.

[Matt]

Or then you do like, he loves me. He loves me.

[Leah]

Now maybe Dandelion, my new favorite flower.

[Zayn]

This is like. Wow. That was, like, really deep. Like, I. My heart is. Yeah, there's something emotional about that for sure. Or no. I think my lump is back. Oh, I thought I felt something.

[Matt]

What Lump?

[Leah]

Yeah.

[Zayn]

From. From the hot tub.

[Matt]

Oh, your folliculite. Folliculitis.

[Leah]

I do want to just say thank you to the girls. So remember the last episode I was on? I told you about the hot guy who owned the coffee shop?

[Zayn]

Oh, yeah, we went through his Instagram.

[Leah]

Also blocked everything out. I didn't know because remember, I was like, shout him out.

[Zayn]

We did. I remember. We're like, just in case I got scared.

[Heath]

Okay, so.

[Leah]

So these girls who are viewers, saw him on New Year's at a bar and ran up to him because they knew exactly who I was talking about.

[Zayn]

Because no way.

[Leah]

Very obvious if you know who he is.

[Matt]

Like, he's hot, you know, you know,

[Leah]

you know, you know. So then he DM'd me and was like, what? So you guys don't support small businesses or something like that? And he said. And I was like, what? When I saw his name in my DMs, I was like, oh, my God. But yeah, so some girls ran up to him, was like, oh, my God, this girl was talking about you on a podcast. And he's like, wow, didn't shout us out. So Saba Surf.

[Matt]

So do we want to shout him out? No, we'll shout them out now.

[Leah]

Yes, Saba Surf.

[Matt]

Okay, so Saba Surf at Saba Surf. That's his handle. And is it that the name of the coffee shop? The name is Coffee stuff.

[Leah]

We don't need to shout him out.

[Zayn]

Are you going. Are you going on a date with it? Like, what. What's. What's the vibe?

[Leah]

Nothing.

[Matt]

Is he single still?

[Leah]

Yeah, Cuz remember, he had really came of it. We like DM for like a second, but nothing. Anything.

[Matt]

Okay.

[Leah]

I saw him at like a. Outside of a bar and I was like, what?

[Zayn]

Well, I mean, the fact he reached out to you first.

[Leah]

Yes.

[Matt]

That says a lot.

[Leah]

He said. And thank you. I feel like some people came in, so come in for free coffee, which I have yet to do.

[Zayn]

So, yeah, you got to go.

[Leah]

Maybe I'll just head there right now, actually.

[Matt]

Maybe.

[Zayn]

Yeah, go right after this and then come back and give us an update

[Matt]

because ride that wave.

[Zayn]

I mean.

[Heath]

Okay, man.

[Leah]

No pun intended.

[Zayn]

You have to. You have to take these moments, Leah, because you don't know. What if. What if this guy is your man and you want to make sure you do this before the. Before the show.

[Leah]

He actually should get me before the show comes out.

[Zayn]

That's what I'm saying. That's what I'm saying. Just like, Just to see. Just see what's going on there, you know?

[Leah]

Yeah. No, I'm so emotional because, because if

[Zayn]

you're, if you're in a relationship, season two, you break up, you cheat on him.

[Heath]

I don't know.

[Zayn]

It could get crazy.

[Leah]

We can make a deal. Actually, Big, hey, for looks, we should pretend to be in a relationship. I'm gonna cheat on you in season two.

[Zayn]

Yeah. I, I. People who favor Laz is so crazy.

[Leah]

No, it's actually wild. I heard a lot of the love in ones are fake.

[Zayn]

I'm kidding. I just faked one with an older woman.

[Heath]

Yeah, right.

[Matt]

Yeah, that was it. I know you talked about it on basically, but what Zane.

[Leah]

The amount of DMs I got from

[Zayn]

people that, like, it's not just every single person I know reached out to them because they were too scared to reach out to me.

[Leah]

Why?

[Zayn]

Because. Because they thought it was real. So I think they were just like, we were here. February. February 12th, right? February 12th. Bella, who helps me with content, she's just like, you should do something for Valentine's Day. And I'm like, no, I don't usually, like, do holidays. So I'm, I don't. I'm good. And then I was like, well, I was like, I just thought of something really co. Like, what if I did a whole carousel with, like, just an older, like a much older lady for Valentine's Day, Just as a joke. Obvious, Obvious joke. She's like, okay, let's do it. And I was like, no, no, that's unrealistic. She finds this lady through a cash.

[Leah]

Real.

[Matt]

She's real.

[Heath]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Zayn]

And I. And so we, we took the picture. Everybody was either confused, reaching out, thinking it was real, real thought it was AI.

[Leah]

I think I commented there are so

[Zayn]

many different, like, different reasons, like, why people were just confused and freaking out. Right. I never, I never showed a video of her. Nothing. It was just these pictures. And a lot of people thought it was AI.

[Matt]

I thought. Well, I was like, he either hired someone or it's really good, AI. Or you, like, perfected it. Photoshop. AI did a bit. Like, it looked really realistic.

[Zayn]

I. So I think actually Remy came up with either Remy or Danielle. Somebody came up with this idea like,

[Matt]

oh, you should, like, post a carousel.

[Zayn]

No, no, no, not the carousel.

[Matt]

Like, bring her on.

[Zayn]

Do something. And I was like. And to me, like, I, I don't like to take a bit too far. Like, once I do it once I'm like, the magic.

[Leah]

It's done.

[Zayn]

Yeah, it's done. And the only reason why we did this Was because he's brought up a good point. The fact that you didn't do it any videos with her. There's no proof. I was like, okay, I feel like we're allowed to do one more bit with her. And I thought bringing her to basically where every like.

[Heath]

And we thought a pregnancy announcement would be the best. Yeah.

[Zayn]

Alicia's jealous, Remy's excited. He is like, like we just thought that would be really funny. And so we did a whole bit where she came on and we had like a six minute conversation of how. How we've been together for a year and I've been hilarious and just like it. And obviously everybody watching you could tell. It's like, you know, like it was fun. We did it in good life. And she who loved it more than anybody was her dad.

[Matt]

What's her name?

[Zayn]

Beth.

[Matt]

Beth, of course.

[Zayn]

What's so awesome about Beth is that when I on her casting thing it shows that she was on season one of Beast Games.

[Matt]

Really?

[Zayn]

And I did not. I didn't recognize her. And then when I went back I was like, oh my God. But I just thought that was another like oh, that's so cool. I love Beast Games. I feel like she's a perfect.

[Matt]

Was she in anything else? We would know. She's in like Steel Magnolia.

[Zayn]

Yeah. No, no, she. She's only been doing this for four years.

[Matt]

That's so cool.

[Zayn]

Yeah, really cool.

[Matt]

[Zayn]

Oh Talking about this.

[Leah]

Hi, Appolina. And then the banana, like, cheats on the apple and, like, throws her off a cliff. So when.

[Zayn]

Yeah, I'm not on that side of

[Matt]

Tick Tock, I see a lot of the ones of the fruits being, like, eating themselves in a way, or being fed.

[Leah]

They're like, mommy. It's like a box of, like, tomatoes. They're like, mommy. Where she's like, I'm doing.

[Zayn]

I try not to have AI too much AI in my algorithm because it's a lot, like, stresses me out more than anything. I don't know why. So I try not to. I try not to engage with it. I try not.

[Leah]

How do you get it to stop? Because I.

[Zayn]

Then you just put, not interested. It doesn't usually work. You have to do it a lot.

[Leah]

The problem is I just watch it. And then I'm like. It's like. Not that I love, but I don't think you.

[Zayn]

I don't think you can do Uninterested on AI content. It's more like, what the AI content. The context of that.

[Leah]

Yeah, like that second one.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Leah]

Keep my best entertained.

[Heath]

Don't worry, I'll take hard care of her.

[Zayn]

This is a. Like, to me, this is a. I slide.

[Matt]

I like just random subcultures of. I like the Shape Store. Have you heard of that one? Or like, the North Shore. They're like these just crazy worlds. And these like.

[Leah]

So the ones with the bed were like, would you sleep in honey?

[Matt]

It's like, oh, I see those. Or what kind of toilet paper you would like? It's like. It's like bubble wrap and shit and. And, like, balloons.

[Leah]

Like, they're like, store.

[Matt]

Yeah, Like. Yeah, the Shape Store. The third video where that. Go back. Like, that guy like, yo, we're at the Shape Stores. Like, we're buying shapes. Like, and it's just this, like.

[Zayn]

God.

[Matt]

And none of this is real. This is all AI. But it's like, these dudes are, like, just obsessed about shapes. They're driving these crazy cars. It looks like I'm like, what the. Like, I get sucked deep into this

[Zayn]

saying how good it is.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Zayn]

Because it looks like an old video.

[Heath]

Crazy.

[Leah]

My friend is a. Like, a social media girl, right? But she makes, like, graphics and stuff. But the stuff that she. You're right. Like, add this, this, this, and this with a person, with a silhouette, whatever, and it's boom.

[Zayn]

Yeah.

[Leah]

She's, like, created.

[Zayn]

Did you see the one where it was like, they were. It was a fl. It was like, in a abandoned warehouse. Or something. Flashlight on the. It was like a flashlight eye fisheye type content.

[Heath]

Okay.

[Zayn]

And they were pointing at each like old Viner and they'll do old TikTok and they're delaying like this, like on the floor.

[Matt]

Like an old.

[Zayn]

Yeah, like an old.

[Leah]

Were you in it?

[Zayn]

No, no, no, I wasn't.

[Matt]

I thought Father Kelson one. It was like Tumblr.

[Zayn]

She was the first one. She was the first one, which was crazy.

[Matt]

And then Connor, Franta was in one of like the O2L boys and stuff.

[Heath]

Where are you now?

[Zayn]

Oh, yeah, it's. It's so. It's really eerie. No, you should actually pull it up because it's like pretty crazy. Just type in old. Old Viners. AI. I feel like it'll pop up.

[Matt]

TikTok is kind of really bad with searches. It looks like used to be good.

[Zayn]

Oh, there it is.

[Matt]

But. But it's like this. But it's this.

[Zayn]

It's exact. This. But it's with. And the humans look good too. Like the. The people that they put in. It looks good.

[Matt]

I know, it's crazy. It's pretty damn freaky.

[Heath]

Zane, have you done the. The bridge in Tampa?

[Zayn]

Yes, that's the. That's the bridge we take every time we go to my grandparents.

[Heath]

Is it really, really steep? I wouldn't. I wouldn't say this, like video and it was like show showing this. Like the bridge looked vertical.

[Zayn]

Yeah.

[Heath]

And I was like, I. It.

[Zayn]

It looks.

[Heath]

Oh, my God. I started having night, like when I was younger. I used to have a reoccurring nightmare of going up a really vertical bridge and then going over and having to go straight down.

[Zayn]

Oh, I've had those dreams.

[Matt]

Oh, I've been on this bridge. This goes to St. Pete.

[Zayn]

Yeah, it's heath. It's not as vertical. Once you're on it. It doesn't feel.

[Matt]

It's like an optical illusion.

[Zayn]

Yeah, it's an optical illusion.

[Heath]

But like there was this picture where it looked like it was straight up. And I was like, I've had that nightmare my whole life. And this is like the most accurate representation of that.

[Zayn]

He's kind of like the Simpsons ride at Universal.

[Heath]

That's that ride straight up. And then.

[Zayn]

Yeah, that's. I've had those.

[Matt]

I wonder if it's part of Mall World. Have you heard about Mall World? This girl basically has this place she goes to in her dreams and she made an entire map of it and she posted on TikTok and everyone's like, yo, that's where I go in My dreams. Or I think she may have a world. Or this is, I think, a video of a girl talking about it. But it go to images. Mall. World, World dreams. She drew this massive map and everybody is always like, oh, my gosh, no, I've been there in the dreams and stuff. Non functional highway heath or something like that. I don't know if your dream is part of it, but no, it's pretty crazy. And a lot of people think that, like, they go there when they sleep and this girl just.

[Zayn]

You know what? Dreams is very cluttered in your dreams.

[Leah]

I don't dream things.

[Zayn]

Don't.

[Matt]

Like me don't dream.

[Zayn]

You don't have a dream.

[Leah]

I never remember my dreams ever. So if I.

[Zayn]

Even when you wait, like, as soon as you wake up, you don't.

[Leah]

Like, there's times where I wake up and I remember I had one maybe, but I can tell you, like, the details. The only times I ever remember a dream is if it's scary. But those are very, very, very rare for me to have.

[Matt]

Oh.

[Leah]

I do not dream. And I don't know what that means.

[Heath]

But you want to know what's really weird? Mariah keeps getting flashbacks to dreams when she was really young. Every time she feeds Tony.

[Zayn]

Whoa.

[Heath]

She'll be feeding Tony every. And she'll just remember some wild dream that she had when she was younger. And she was like, it happened so much. So I looked it up. Apparently that's a thing.

[Matt]

Oh, it's like a hormonal. Just response from.

[Zayn]

Yeah, wait. She'll.

[Heath]

She'll. She'll just be like, feeding him. And then all of a sudden, just like, she'll. A dream will pop in her head she had, like 10 years ago.

[Matt]

Wow.

[Zayn]

What?

[Heath]

That's so random.

[Zayn]

And she never thought of these dreams before.

[Heath]

She'd be like, oh, my gosh, I remember that dream. That's weird.

[Leah]

Do you guys like listening to people's dreams? Dreams, though? Because there's nothing.

[Matt]

Hey, y' all want to hear about something that didn't happen?

[Leah]

Exactly. So people like, oh, my God, my dream last night. And I'm like, if it's over a

[Matt]

minute, I don't want to listen to it. Like, really, Just give me this.

[Leah]

Not good. Or it's not like a part of, like, I don't know, something that could happen in real life or, like, whatever. Like, I don't want to hear that you were in a jungle and, like, died.

[Zayn]

Do you think dreams. Do you think dreams mean something, though? Because sometimes.

[Matt]

Sometimes, yeah.

[Zayn]

Because, like, one dream that I Like, remember, I. I think about a lot, which I can't believe my brain even went there was. And you guys have heard this one before, but I've had multiple dreams. Whereas my dad, like, I was stuck in this, like, dark, dark, like, mansion, and my dad is trying to murder me. My dad. My father, who I have, like, no,

[Leah]

I've had a thing with my dad.

[Zayn]

And I always thought that was so weird. Like, why is my brain going there? Like, why is my dreams going there when I've never had anything negative or, like, bad. Yeah. With my dad, where, like, I feel like he wants to murder me.

[Matt]

So that's why I'm like, sometimes it's making sense of everything. The brain process throughout the day, and it's like rapid neurons firing. And then the way we make sense of things is through stories. And, like, that's so weird. It's just this whole mishmash.

[Leah]

I've even had friends tell me, like, oh, my God, I had a dream about you last night, but it wasn't you. And I'm like, what? Yeah, it was a different face, but it was you.

[Heath]

I was gonna say, like, some people that, like, break down dreams, it could mean, like, you having this, you know, dream that your dad's gonna kill you. Could be, you know, you're scared of disappointing him, and you have fear of disappointing him. And that fear trans. Translate in, will translate into your dreams, right. That you know he's going to be killing you. Like, you're scared, but it has nothing to do with that. But you're just scared to disappoint him or something. Like, it could be totally different.

[Zayn]

Or maybe he. Maybe he wants to kill me.

[Matt]

Like, in my dream last night, there was a. There was a moment where I was, like, running really frantically, and I thought there were, like, there were puddles of water. And then the puddles of water were, like, pee. And I was disgusted by it. And I'm like, oh, God, that's pee. There's more pee. And I realized it was. I think it was because our bidet, like, I don't know, went out of commission or there's something I need to fix on the toilet. And I think, like, that was, like, one tiny detail of my day that manifested into, like, I don't know, plumbing or thinking things in our house aren't working. Just pee on the ground. And I all think it's because of my bidet.

[Zayn]

You need to adjust, like, what you're

[Leah]

stressing about that there's always the falling dream. Yeah, falling. That's Like a sign of stress, isn't it?

[Matt]

Oh, yeah. I get. He's falling out. Sometimes I get shards of glass in my hand. There's things like. Or I meet a celebrity and I'm trying to, like, to take a picture, but the camera doesn't work.

[Zayn]

That's real life.

[Matt]

No, I wouldn't. But it's. It's things like that where I'm like, oh, my gosh, this is so crazy. I gotta remember this. And I can't capture the photo.

[Zayn]

I'm the complete. Matt, this is so funny. I'm the complete opposite when I see celebrities in my dream, because celebrities in my dream, they're like. We're almost like friends.

[Matt]

Yes.

[Zayn]

Where I'm doing everything to be as normal as possible. Where I don't pull out my phone and take a picture with them because I want to feel.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Zayn]

I want to feel normal and connected with them. That's really funny you brought up. I, like, imagine trying to take a picture of a celebrity in your dream. Like, I can't. I don't even know if I've ever been on my phone.

[Matt]

But it's really consensual, like, in the moment. Like, it's just so cool. I'm hitting it off with them and, like, this photo's about to happen and I'm like, fuck, it's not working. Also, I get really. I get mind blown by deja vu. Like, yeah, I never had that. I had it.

[Heath]

I get it all the time.

[Leah]

All the time. Yeah.

[Matt]

And what is it? Have they figured out what deja vu is?

[Zayn]

I heard when I was a kid in my, like, 8th grade physical science

[Matt]

class class that the theory behind deja

[Zayn]

vu is that, like, time and space exist on a plane, Right?

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Zayn]

And in the future. Or fuck, how does it go?

[Matt]

There's a moment that causes a wave, like a gravitational wave that will send a moment from the future back in time.

[Zayn]

And it kind of like, interacts with that.

[Matt]

That frequency of processing and then just

[Zayn]

like a wave pulling back, back out.

[Matt]

It.

[Zayn]

It evens out.

[Matt]

So then when you reach that point that was waved back, you have this,

[Zayn]

like, flashback of, like, oh, I've been here before.

[Matt]

Yeah. And it's very brief. Like, it's also. It's just.

[Heath]

Yeah.

[Matt]

Whoa. And then you're trying to put your finger on it. Has this happen? Or, like, I don't know.

[Heath]

Like, I. I don't like it because every time I get deja vu, I think it means I'm about to die.

[Zayn]

Oh, my God.

[Heath]

Because, like, I. I Almost see it as, like. Like, this is a deja vu. Because this is the last thing I see before I die. So if I'm, like, driving, I mean, like, oh, my gosh, I got deja vu, and I'm like, I'm about to get into a wreck. I'm about to die right now.

[Leah]

Like, you feel like you've done this before, right?

[Heath]

Freak out. I don't.

[Zayn]

It's.

[Matt]

I feel like this moment has happened before, like, or that I've experienced this, and I'm like, what?

[Zayn]

Just confusing. Like, how do you feel? Like, how do you feel that?

[Leah]

Well, like, I blacked out on Sunday. I know I said I wasn't, like, being, you know, going out, but we did go to Soho's pool day.

[Zayn]

Wait, this Sunday?

[Leah]

This last Sunday?

[Zayn]

Leah, you just. Yeah, I'm not, like, really drinking. Grind. It blacked out just a few days ago.

[Leah]

I could think, because I hadn't been drinking, I was drinking a bunch of margaritas, right? But I got home and I was digging through my work bag to find my charger. And I remember being like, I can't find the freaking cord. Like, where is it? And then I remembered I let my friend borrow it, so she must have it. And then I remember going to bed digging for my character charger, and it wasn't in the bag. And I remember sitting here being like, I feel like I've been here before,

[Zayn]

but I feel like that's not deja vu.

[Matt]

But when I was at the Regal Movie Theater down in Dania Point or whatever, and I was walking out of Withering Heights, I had this moment of deja vu where I'm like, I've been here before, but I'm like, but I'm in Fort Lauderdale at a movie theater. I've never been here before, but sometimes it's like. But I've walked out of movie theaters before. Sometimes it's just patterns of experiences you've had, and it might be a little bit different, but you're, like, perceiving it differently, too.

[Zayn]

Maybe it's just because I'm like, a strong person, like, you know, mentally strong. So, like, I just don't get deja vu. You know what I mean?

[Leah]

Well, I've been doing deja vu wrong, so.

[Zayn]

Yeah.

[Matt]

So there's different theories, but I guess the first one. Let's just run with this. A brief disruption in the sensory processing causing the brain to register a single current experience as two separate memories, with one arriving just milliseconds after the other, other causing a sense of repetition.

[Zayn]

Not as fun.

[Heath]

Feels like if you go somewhere and you recognize it. Like, damn, I've been here when I was, like a kid. Like, it looks familiar. Like, you're like. Like, I remember this, but I don't know why or how I remember it.

[Zayn]

Oh, okay.

[Heath]

Like, you're like, oh, I've seen this before. This is weird.

[Zayn]

So maybe I've had. Maybe I've definitely. Maybe I've had those moments. Maybe. Maybe I've definitely had it.

[Leah]

Now you'll recognize them.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Zayn]

Yeah. Okay. I'm going to. Next time it happens, I'm going to. I'm going to text you.

[Leah]

Oh, I just bought a puzzle. I want to start testing my brain.

[Matt]

How many pieces?

[Zayn]

Let's talk puzzle.

[Leah]

Like 503.

[Matt]

What's it up?

[Leah]

Let me start some kittens basket.

[Matt]

Fruit.

[Zayn]

What is up with you and fruit? Sorry?

[Leah]

Oh, the fruit. The fruit. AI.

[Matt]

Well, you know, puzzles are good. I do like puzzles. Are you a person? If you finish a puzzle, do you try to keep it or you just destroy it and say, that was fun?

[Leah]

I'm just trying to do new. New activities.

[Matt]

Yeah. Puzzles are great. I love watching videos of puzzle competitions where, like, a bunch of people are at tables and they jump a puzzle and they have to try to solve it within, like, minutes. And some people are really good at it.

[Zayn]

There's really a competition for everything.

[Heath]

Doing.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Zayn]

You can make anything. And is it like winning? You win money at those?

[Matt]

Probably.

[Zayn]

So how does that work? Who pays for. Is. Does everybody put their money in a pot and then the winner gets it all?

[Matt]

It's like standard tournaments.

[Zayn]

Okay.

[Matt]

Like, registration fees and stuff.

[Heath]

Every time I have a. Do you win? Do you win money?

[Zayn]

You know me, man.

[Leah]

A Super Bowl. And everyone brings a soup.

[Matt]

Yes.

[Leah]

And then you don't know who soup is. Whose. And we vote for the best and the worst, but everyone has to enter with, like, $10 to play or whatever.

[Zayn]

Got it.

[Leah]

And then the worst soup.

[Matt]

Who.

[Heath]

Who?

[Leah]

It's shamed.

[Zayn]

I remember you doing that with Jordan. Did Jordan win or lose?

[Leah]

Jordan was raving about his.

[Heath]

Jordan had the worst, bro. It was so bad because I'm making Grammys.

[Leah]

Like, something something. And it was quite as.

[Matt]

I was like.

[Heath]

I was like, you did your grandma dirty.

[Zayn]

Unless this is grandma's recipe.

[Leah]

Then you guys come. I think you guys came. Yeah, yeah.

[Zayn]

It was for his birthday, right?

[Leah]

I think so.

[Zayn]

So we were eating hot soup in the middle of June.

[Matt]

That was another thing.

[Leah]

That's right. And then it turned into, like, fest.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Zayn]

We were all just sitting on Jordan's

[Leah]

lawn, and everyone was rapping it. I love that because he's good at freestyling.

[Matt]

He is.

[Leah]

I've always been so envious of people who could do that because I. I feel like I should be able to, but my brain doesn't work that fast.

[Zayn]

Yeah, I'm. You know what? I'm the same way.

[Leah]

Yeah.

[Zayn]

I feel like I should, but I just can't. I'm impressed by the Tick Tockers that freestyle rap on. On live while they're, like, playing video games, and they just rap about what's going on. Going on. It's. It's nuts. But they have, like, a full instrumental and vocal processing, so it sounds like a real song.

[Leah]

Oh, are you guys going to Coachella?

[Matt]

I don't think so unless, like, a work opportunity happens.

[Zayn]

I'm kind of the same. I.

[Matt]

It's the same every time, and it kind of stresses me out. Like, I almost feel like prepping for Coachella, getting the right outfit. Even when I'm there, I'm like. I'm just anxious about entering the festival, meeting up with people.

[Zayn]

We're also. It's. I think it's an older mindset, too. Like, we're getting older. Like, it's. I feel like that stuff is stressed us out more, which is why adults don't go to that or older people don't go to that.

[Leah]

I. Camp. So you think that mine would be a little more stressful. But I actually like the camping.

[Heath]

I think.

[Zayn]

I think people love. I think people that do camping coach. I think they. They see it from a different perspective, and it's more like. I think you like. I think car camping people appreciate the festival. Festival more because it's like you're waiting in that long line to get in. Because I remember when we did car camping. I remember we appreciated the festival more, like, getting there. We wanted to get there, course, as soon as the festival opened.

[Leah]

Well, it's nice because you keep going back. You get drinks, go back inside the thing, and then they do the night.

[Matt]

The.

[Leah]

The Silent Discos.

[Zayn]

Yeah.

[Matt]

Oh, yeah. But I've had so many. I've done so many Coachellas. I've had plenty of memories doing it. I'm like, is it. I don't know.

[Zayn]

It is crazy how many, like, years.

[Matt]

And I've enjoyed all of them.

[Zayn]

Yeah, I know.

[Matt]

But it's just, like.

[Leah]

I do think it's cool that Justin Bieber's there, but I feel like it almost is gonna give, like, an over. I don't really Love a huge crowd. And I know that that would.

[Zayn]

Oh, my. I mean, because he has massive. He hasn't performed. Right.

[Heath]

And.

[Zayn]

Oh, how long? Yeah, I mean, it's gonna be, like,

[Leah]

a couple years ago.

[Zayn]

Yeah. I'm surprised. I'm surprised they have her back again.

[Leah]

Headless Enema would be good.

[Zayn]

What's it called? Headless Thing.

[Matt]

Headlining.

[Zayn]

Headlining.

[Leah]

Headlisting.

[Heath]

Geese.

[Matt]

I want to see geese and I want to see Turnstile.

[Leah]

Oh.

[Matt]

Ethel Kane. Dijon.

[Leah]

Okay.

[Matt]

It's pretty good. Pretty good.

[Leah]

Yeah. But I am going to Tortuga.

[Zayn]

You are the one in Florida. We've never been there.

[Leah]

It was that.

[Heath]

That looks.

[Leah]

It was the most ratchet I've ever been in my life.

[Zayn]

Heath, we should go. It's. We should go.

[Leah]

So fun.

[Zayn]

That's funny.

[Leah]

It's all in the sand. So you're just like.

[Zayn]

It's like pirate. It's like pirate themes, right? No.

[Matt]

What, you think a Gasparilla, maybe in Tampa?

[Zayn]

Oh, maybe. What's the vibe of.

[Heath]

It's just Coachella on the water.

[Leah]

On the water.

[Zayn]

Okay.

[Matt]

It's almost like hangout fest, too, that they do in, like, the Gulf shores as well, which is a lot of fun.

[Leah]

A little less, like.

[Zayn]

Obviously, a beach festival does sound fun, but why do I feel like as soon as you get there, you're like, oh, this is too hot?

[Leah]

No, not at all.

[Matt]

It's breezy.

[Zayn]

It's hot as a pool. Yeah.

[Matt]

You go to the water. Florida.

[Zayn]

In Florida, it's.

[Leah]

Yeah.

[Matt]

Yeah.

[Heath]

But then it's like, the sand is hot, so you're, like, barefoot.

[Zayn]

Yeah.

[Heath]

And then, like, you don't want to wear shoes and just walk around in the sand at a festival all day.

[Zayn]

It's like, oh, and you know, that pool is nasty.

[Leah]

And then just the bars after are so fun.

[Matt]

Who is at that festival getting in a damn pool? Like, then you're in, like, a. Then you're in, like, a wet, damp swimsuit.

[Zayn]

You dry up in literally two minutes.

[Matt]

Okay.

[Zayn]

It's so hot.

[Heath]

You say that until you're, like, wasted and you're like, yeah, but you're just like.

[Matt]

I don't know. You just start chafing and, like. I don't know.

[Zayn]

That doesn't look that packed, like, the

[Leah]

early in the day, but, yeah, it is.

[Zayn]

Is that, like, vip? Is that, like, you're paying extra to be that. Be in there?

[Leah]

No, that's general.

[Heath]

Do you wear swimsuits that have the liner? The underwear liner? Yeah.

[Zayn]

I hate some.

[Matt]

Some I do. Some are really great. I love Duvan they have a really good, nice, thin liner that, like, is not, like, the 90s mesh one. Yeah, I do sometimes. It depends how long I know I'm going to be in a swimsuit or wear briefs, like, underneath it.

[Heath]

No, I can't. I can't. Through the liner.

[Zayn]

I cut every single one.

[Heath]

I, it, it rubbed especially, like, at the beach. It gets, like, salty sandy.

[Zayn]

Oh. It literally gives me, like, cuts. Rug burn burns. Yeah. I don't know how people do it.

[Leah]

You were also really weird about your underwear.

[Heath]

Me?

[Zayn]

Yeah.

[Leah]

Very, very specific.

[Zayn]

Specific. Yeah, because I don't like it too tight. I, I, the material is very important, too, because I get, like, swamp ass. I, I could get swamp ass. So I need, like, the right. I need the right underwear. Yeah.

[Leah]

Yeah. Just have something loose on you.

[Zayn]

And my favorite, my favorite underwear right now is ones I found on tik. Some guy made them and I was like. Because I, I always buy new underwear just because I. I was gonna say.

[Leah]

That's why I remember that. Because you always shop.

[Matt]

They're always like, yeah, what size are you? We have a B, D. And that's

[Zayn]

all I had to say.

[Heath]

You know?

[Zayn]

That's all I had to say.

[Leah]

Also, Heath, I just want to add that your baby is actually the cutest thing I've ever seen in my life.

[Heath]

Thank you.

[Leah]

Because I don't have to say that. You know what I mean? But I wanted to let you know that he's actually so cute. It's funny because he looks like Mariah with your. Your face.

[Heath]

We were just talking about that. I was like, I feel like he has my features but looks like Mariah.

[Leah]

Yes. Because I was looking at him and I was like, that's Heath, but looks like an Italian Heath, almost.

[Heath]

It's so weird.

[Zayn]

Yeah.

[Leah]

My brother, my brother, he is married to someone who is Fijian, so she's, like, got dark features, but the baby is, like, brown, but looks just like my brother, so they call him Taniel. It's funny because it has his features, but her coloring and so. Oh, that's Daniel Bars.

[Zayn]

Nice.

[Heath]

It's. It's crazy that, like, you have offspring works like that. It's just weird. It's so weird.

[Leah]

And I feel like, too. I feel like all the kids you guys have, I feel like they're each going to look different, I hope.
