you're getting on, I'm getting off. It's like the

0:02

merry-go-round of dating apps. You know, someone's

0:04

always getting off, someone's always getting on.

0:20

Hi guys! Hi guys! Welcome back to

0:22

another episode of Girls Gotta Eat! Welcome

0:24

back! Welcome back from Europe! You

0:29

can't not say it. This

0:32

is like the third time this year you've had to

0:34

bring up that we just got back from somewhere.

0:37

Well, I am always just getting back from Europe.

0:40

Oh my god. You guys, I don't have a boyfriend, so I have nothing to

0:42

live for besides Europe. Europe

0:46

back to LA was a

0:49

hellish journey. I am

0:52

very upset. It was so brutal. Going there

0:54

was fine, direct, but coming back is

0:57

a different animal. Well, going anywhere for me is always

0:59

fine. I am like ready to roll.

1:01

Like I land, I'm excited, I'm like

1:03

full of life. Coming back, I

1:05

don't have anything left to live for. It was 22

1:08

hours. Yeah, I was. Did you do the math on that? Like

1:11

you were, you were pretty jet-lagged. I could not do any

1:13

math. As someone who doesn't get jet-lagged. I can't

1:15

relate. I, physically, she doesn't bloat.

1:18

Physically, I don't bloat. Every time I say

1:20

I don't get jet-lagged, I feel like Melissa McCarthy

1:22

in Bridesmaids. I don't bloat.

1:24

Physically, I just don't bloat. I feel like it's such

1:27

a brag, but it is my truth.

1:29

This was the worst jet-lag I've ever

1:31

had. I was fucked up. I'm still fucked up.

1:34

Yeah. I've been fucked up for like 12 days, but

1:36

we had an amazing trip. I'm really excited to talk about it.

1:38

And if you are watching, you'll notice we have some

1:41

vibes only boxes

1:43

next to us in between. Oh, that's why Azul's

1:45

not up here. He's like, oh, the vibrators really. Azul, come

1:47

get one of these. That vibrators on your back. You

1:51

know what? We also at some

1:53

point will need to address the fact

1:55

that we were going to call a toy the Azul, and then

1:57

we walked it back and we were like, that's fucking weird. I just.

1:59

letting you fly I was like if she wants to

2:02

name a dildo after her dog then

2:04

that's fine yeah just so you guys it is

2:06

a male toy that's named after one of your exes

2:11

which no one tried to stop

2:13

me no one I was like it's a little

2:15

weird that maybe you want to name a sex toy after your

2:17

dog and you're like that tracks that's fine and I was like what about

2:19

my ex-boyfriend's name and you were like yeah let's do that

2:22

but when you guys see you'll understand yeah

2:24

it's not like we called it like the Kevin now

2:26

I want to we

2:30

2:33

average toy and call it the Chad please

3:48

what is on your foot

3:50

what do you mean you guys are watching the youtube

3:52

right now ashley has not socks on i have

3:55

never seen this in the history of the podcast

3:57

now people can talk about your feet for the whole episode

3:59

Not just drops, you were with me. You

4:03

were with me when I bought these. So

4:06

these sneakers,

4:08

who are karyuma, who we had as a partner on

4:10

the show, I was wearing these no socks. That's

4:12

the most insane thing I've ever heard. It's not karyuma's

4:15

fault, it's your fault. Right. When you were

4:17

like, these are trying to really hurt my feet, I don't have socks

4:19

on to walk

4:22

around in Europe. So like, they

4:25

are comfortable, but after like five

4:27

hours, I start to get a little blister on my pinky

4:29

toe. They are still comfortable, but they were starting to rub,

4:31

but they did start to smell.

4:35

I don't hate the player, I hate the game. So

4:37

I was like, but I don't want to show my socks. Like, I

4:39

like the look of no sock. And you were like, you

4:42

gotta get these special socks. This is not a hot take. But

4:44

I always felt like these, even the ones that have

4:46

the little thing on the back that sticks to you. They

4:49

still work, but these are Lulu and they

4:52

are elite. They're so cute, I love them. Thanks.

4:55

Yeah. Do you think

4:56

you'll get them? Do you have a sock loyalty? I

4:58

have hundreds of socks upstairs. Do you think I have

5:00

a lot of sweatshirts? I wait till I show you the whole

5:03

armoire full of socks. I have,

5:05

oh my God. Hand socks, white socks, high socks, black

5:07

socks, workout socks. I have like three jewels of socks. What

5:09

was that, Bubba Gump? What was that?

5:13

Actually,

5:17

I come in for a bedroom.

5:18

I have a whole drawer of cocksocks

5:20

in case any guys want to come over and jerk off. What is that?

5:23

What is that?

5:24

I have a whole drawer of cocksocks in case any guys

5:26

want to come over and jerk off. A

5:28

cocksock? Oh, just for guys like me to jerk

5:31

off,

5:31

they come inside of them so that it doesn't make a mess.

5:35

You didn't even know that.

5:38

No, Raina, show up. Is that a joke? Any

5:40

sock could be a cocksock. They

5:42

don't sell them, it's because I'm branded.

5:46

Any sock could be a cocksock if

5:48

you believe in yourself. Well, I wear

5:50

socks around the house and to bed. That's

5:52

crazy. It is always a relationship

5:55

milestone when someone realizes it for the first

5:57

time. I forget that you sleep with socks on.

6:00

And I'm saying, are you naked? Are

6:03

you butt naked in the past?

6:05

But sometimes

6:09

I will just be butt naked. And

6:13

it's like, so the warmth and

6:15

the comforter is enough for the rest of your

6:17

body, but not your little toe. I see. I

6:20

don't know what I think. Maybe I have

6:21

like weak circulation, but my feet are always cold,

6:23

always cold. So I have so many socks, like fluffy

6:26

socks, warm socks, socks. Socks,

6:28

socks, socks. And I love socks. I get

6:30

socks every Christmas. I like the warmest

6:33

socks on the planet. It's like a whole thing, like super

6:35

fluffy. Like my mom gets me some every year. And

6:38

like, I always think that

6:40

a partner or

6:41

somebody I'm dating is going to think it's cute and

6:43

they just never do. I think it's adorable.

6:45

They're like, what are you doing? I think it starts

6:47

to grow in them. You know, like you fall in love with somebody. You're like,

6:50

oh, I love how she wears socks to bed. All their

6:52

ex become adorable. Yes. And then

6:54

it becomes like a joke. You know what I mean? Like

6:57

then my robot victim has to wear socks all around the planet. I

7:02

just love it.

7:03

I love it. Very

7:06

cool. Is it cute? Oh, that is so cool. Katie.

7:14

I really love them. We make

7:16

our own round and endmodels at one

7:18

point. Usually around like four

7:20

or five in the morning, I'll wake up and I take

7:22

them off. You're

7:25

a little more comfortable. That's your

7:27

4am ritual. Let

7:29

me spread these toes

7:30

out.

7:41

No panties. You

7:44

go full sock.

7:47

I usually wake up in the

7:50

middle of the night like I'm kind of hot and then that's when I

7:52

take them off.

7:55

I get a little more comfortable.

8:00

I'm wearing shoes

8:02

to record. I

8:03

got these new slippers that are really comfy.

8:06

Those are great. Yeah, I was excited to show them to you.

8:08

I love to put a shoe on a couch. Yeah.

8:13

Justice couch? Not inside.

8:15

You used to do it at WTF studios.

8:17

I'd be like, Grandma, this isn't your home. That's exactly

8:19

why I'm putting the shoes on it. I would never

8:21

put shoes on my own couch like an animal. That's

8:24

crazy. Big day. You guys,

8:26

I'm just like,

8:28

I'm so filled with excitement. I feel

8:30

like I'm going to burst. This has been such a long

8:32

time coming. Ashley and I have been tirelessly

8:36

masturbating with all of you guys.

8:39

We are finally ready to announce our first fall

8:42

drop. We have three new products. We are so

8:44

excited for you to put them in your body. Oh

8:46

my God. Yes. And your mouth. Yeah.

8:49

So if you are new here, Ashley and I have a premium

8:51

line of sex toys called vibes only with a

8:53

connected app. All the toys are Bluetooth connected

8:56

to the app and there's erotic audio stories, a

8:58

remote

8:58

control, long distance. There's how to

9:00

videos, all of that. And these are our two new

9:02

toys and our new blow gel flavor.

9:04

Do you want to start introducing them? Let's just start

9:06

with what everybody already knew, which is the

9:08

pumpkin spice blow gel. So

9:11

you can give a pumpkin spice blow job

9:13

this fall or eat some

9:15

pumpkin spice pussy because this is vulva friendly.

9:18

This

9:20

is our first vulva friendly formula,

9:22

which again, we just don't think you need to flavor

9:25

the pussy if you're eating it, but it comes right.

9:27

Mine actually is already pumpkin

9:32

spice. So we actually modeled

9:34

after my own. I do. I smell it. It's

9:36

like, he's like, he's like,

9:38

Ashley. Yeah. I'm always ready for fall. White

9:41

girl named Ashley. My favorite season. My pussy

9:43

is always ready. So this has

9:45

also been a long time coming. I'm just thinking about like a little

9:47

scarf knitted on your pussy.

9:50

A little mark in a little.

9:53

I'll tell you to keep it warm

9:55

in a fall. I'll keep it on my clit. What?

10:01

Slipping

10:03

your clit with sh**.

10:08

Like,

10:10

someone wants to finger me if you take

10:13

my uggs off.

10:20

No!

10:21

Your ugg, your singular ugg. A

10:25

little baby. A mule. A

10:27

little mule. A short ugg. Oh my god,

10:29

I'm sweating. Okay, so we have been talking about this since

10:31

last year. So

10:38

we launched in summer of 2022,

10:40

it was like too

10:41

short of a runway to develop

10:43

it for last fall, year one of the business.

10:45

So we're so excited to have it for this fall and we've

10:47

tested all the flavors. We want it to really taste like a

10:49

pumpkin spice latte. So you can have

10:51

a PSL on your DSLs,

10:55

get it? And it's incredible. And

10:57

we just love it as Volvo friendly. And so going forward,

11:00

all of our blow gels will

11:02

have a new name. So get ready for that. And they

11:04

will all be Volvo friendly as well. So we're going to have more

11:06

flavors coming out for the Christmas

11:09

holiday season. So get ready for those. Feel free

11:11

to take your guesses. Right now we still have the pina

11:13

colada and the orange creamsicle running really low on those.

11:16

We're going to retire those for the holiday season and we'll

11:18

have new flavors coming out. But going

11:21

forward, again, new name coming. This

11:23

is still blow gel, but we

11:25

are repackaging and doing all these fun things and it'll

11:27

be for the P and the D. So if you've never

11:29

tried this before, this one in particular, it's a little

11:32

sweet, it's a little cinnamony. It's the perfect

11:34

balance. And if you've never tried blow gel at

11:36

all, it's just a drop or two on a deck

11:38

or a vagina now and you can just go to

11:40

town. It just makes it taste fun. It just

11:42

adds like another element to the experience.

11:45

People that say to us, I don't like giving oral.

11:47

I'm not good at oral. We always say

11:49

the best thing to do is make it more enjoyable for yourself and

11:51

that's such a fun way to do it is just make everything

11:53

taste better. Yes. So enjoy a PSL

11:56

for your DSL as you said. Okay. And

11:59

let's save the biggest. Last but

12:01

this is just something fun. I want you to talk

12:03

about it. Obviously, it's your name Yeah, so

12:05

our number one bestseller in the company is

12:07

the Raina It is a dual ended

12:10

vibrator on one end or is a clitsucker

12:13

and on the other end It is a

12:15

vibrator if you guys are watching

12:17

YouTube and everything is fully on YouTube You

12:19

can see what it is, but you can bend

12:22

it You can put it inside of yourself and have the clitsucker

12:24

against your clits at the same time This is really fun to put

12:26

on a little naughty show for somebody. It's

12:28

unreal. It's our bestseller for a reason It's sold out

12:31

like four or five times now We just keep reordering

12:33

it and we were just like okay We have had this same

12:35

shade of pale pink for over

12:38

a year now. What can we do differently? And so we did

12:40

hot pink it's giving Barbie. So

12:42

you never need a Ken again Yeah,

12:46

just go on a solo mission with yourself If

12:49

you have a hard time getting off and definitely

12:51

people tell us they have a hard time masturbating or

12:53

getting there This really is a great vibrator

12:56

for you because it's direct clitoral stimulation.

12:58

Yeah, and the color is so spicy

13:00

It's got that beautiful VO logo there's

13:02

separate controls for the vibrator on one

13:04

end and the sucker on the other end and this

13:07

is just Like a little Barbie wand

13:09

that pink is perfect again This stuff

13:11

takes us so long because we're so meticulous

13:13

about it and this was another thing where we like

13:15

got a sample We're like no wrong pink

13:18

like we're obsessed with it and this really is

13:20

kind of outside of our typical color scheme So I

13:22

don't even know that we'll have toys in this color in the

13:24

future. Maybe maybe not We'll see what you guys think

13:27

but right now this is like very limited edition

13:29

like one run So get the Reyna in

13:31

hot pink. Yes, and Finally

13:35

finally newest vibrator in

13:37

the collection the Allison wonderland This

13:40

is our rabbit. Take a minute soak

13:43

it in if you're watching you should be watching

13:45

but I mean this is truly

13:48

Changing the vibrator game. This is the most

13:51

beautiful special versatile

13:53

rabbit You'll ever have and if you are

13:55

somebody who started your masturbation

13:57

journey with that rabbit style. That was my story

13:59

Mine too. It's like how far we've come

14:02

with the materials and how beautiful it is

14:04

and how not scary the clit simulator

14:06

It's not a fucking rabbit with ears for your clit

14:08

like it's just so beautiful So this took

14:11

us a year to develop and we

14:13

really conceptualize this end to end Like

14:16

Ashley said the first vibrators we both really used

14:18

were these big clunky Masculine

14:20

looking vibrators this rabbit

14:23

first of all has a beautiful gold detail

14:25

So it has a ring in the center. We call those guns

14:28

slinger rose gold details

14:29

So it looks really feminine and

14:32

chic my little clit stimulator

14:35

has a flat pad on it So it really

14:37

covers your whole clit which I haven't seen

14:39

on a rabbit before. They're usually a little pointy here Yes,

14:41

that's what I don't like. They're like pointy I'm like

14:43

this is not comfortable on the most sensitive

14:46

part of my body and Ashley had to

14:48

really test this from the beginning Ashley

14:50

put the prototype the hard plastic prototype

14:52

inside of her. Yes, and I zoom

14:55

call I mean I went to the bathroom, but we all had

14:57

to pause the call while I went stuck it inside my

14:59

body I used lube

14:59

because I have that tight little pussy and I was

15:02

like I can't and then we had to kind of like fix The

15:04

spacing so we've really put a lot

15:06

of work into this and of course, we know everybody's bodies

15:08

are different shaped But this really should be

15:10

a perfect fit in terms of wanting to

15:12

penetrate yourself with it and also have that Clip

15:15

stimulator hit your clit But what

15:17

else which is so special to me is that the shaft

15:20

and this head is really so

15:23

soft and like kind of squishy So you

15:25

can just put the head on your clit and

15:27

masturbate that way That's what I've been doing,

15:29

you know If I'm like feeling lazy

15:31

and just want to get one in and it's so soft

15:34

It feels so good again. We got

15:36

a prototype. We're like, nope not squishy enough So

15:38

we went back in and just made it completely

15:40

perfect. So it's really super versatile

15:42

That's why we call it the Alice in Wonderland because

15:45

you can explore your own body in so

15:47

many different ways Yes, and there's two

15:49

different buttons. You can control the shaft and the clip

15:51

simulator separately This really I like

15:53

for like a long masturbation session So

15:56

I'll start with the shaft on vibrating and I'll

15:58

just fuck myself with that when I'm ready to push myself

16:00

over the edge, I turn on the arm, the Clit Simulator.

16:03

Well, I feel like you could start with the shaft

16:06

on your clit, like teasing yourself. So

16:08

start just like using the super

16:10

soft, exquisitely squishy shaft

16:13

and head to like tease yourself. And

16:15

then when you're ready, you slip it in and then you

16:17

have like the full penetration and then the Clit Simulator

16:19

obviously hitting your clit. And again, these all

16:22

connect to the Vibes Only app and

16:24

you can get in the app for free and you can use the controller

16:26

and then there are paid features as well. One of the best paid

16:28

features is the

16:29

long distance controller. So your

16:32

partner can be controlling your vibrator from

16:34

anywhere in the world that the app is available.

16:36

We always say from down the street to across

16:39

the globe. And that's like a really fun way, especially

16:41

if you're in a long distance relationship to really get

16:43

that in. It's super easy to connect and just

16:46

go to town. So we love it. Those

16:48

are the three products. We'll be talking more about these and

16:51

we have some new products even coming before

16:53

the end of the year. This is just the first drop of all

16:55

the new stuff that we're doing. It's been a long time coming. We're

16:58

so excited to introduce you guys to new things for Vibes

16:59

now on tour is just so good.

19:29

It's so fun It's really stuff that

19:31

we just like to keep in a safe space in that room

19:33

I had to prep my family I had a time for the

19:35

stories at the London show because my dad my brother

19:38

my sister-in-law came and I was like sure some stuff.

19:40

I would like to just talk to you about that I'm so funny you

19:42

have to prep them. So that being said

19:45

we are retiring the rusty story,

19:47

right? I was gonna tell you guys here on the podcast,

19:50

but we're gonna take a break first So

19:53

I am going to tell you about quince,

19:55

okay fall fashion revamping

19:58

your fall wardrobe, there is no better time

19:59

I am just on Quince's site right now dying

20:02

over everything. All of the sweaters,

20:05

the outerwear, the bag. I like that

20:07

bag. Everything. The bedding?

20:10

I admittedly do not know about them till they started

20:12

being a partner of ours and I love them so

20:14

much. So this is a really

20:17

high quality clothing brand. Really

20:20

luxury items and at unreal prices.

20:22

Like when you're seeing these prices, you're like, what

20:24

could be going on here? What is the catch? But Quince

20:26

only works

20:26

with Factor. Pennsylvania, New York,

20:29

Pennsylvania, Ohio, West

20:31

Virginia, they all have burial mounds.

20:33

And for me as a person that's

20:35

trying to find answers, I'm not afraid to

20:38

ask questions to myself

20:40

that I don't understand. What is this?

20:42

Could this be spiritual? And I'm

20:45

going to try to find answers

20:48

whether it's crazy to people or not. But

20:51

I don't know the spiritual element that

20:53

these Native Americans had with all of this stuff.

20:55

But I do believe that they believed it.

20:58

So I believe that they believe. You know what I mean?

21:01

Absolutely. I'm

21:03

very much a person that thinks that

21:06

most modern American people

21:09

don't give enough credence to

21:11

the Native American tradition and culture. And

21:14

I always use the example of the

21:16

idea that these stories

21:19

are passed down through generations. And

21:22

one of the things that I always hear people say is, over

21:24

time, the story gets skewed. Because

21:27

from one person to another, kind of like the story, you know, when

21:29

you're a kid in school and just whisper down the alley,

21:32

by the time it gets to the end of the line, it's totally different

21:34

thing than what it started as. But one of the

21:36

things that I always tell people is that the

21:38

Native Americans put a lot of emphasis

21:41

on the idea of oral tradition. And

21:44

they would identify people at a young age, their

21:46

children. They identify the people who

21:48

have a tendency to have a good memory.

21:50

And they train them from a very young age to

21:53

be the story keeper

21:55

of the tribe. And it was something that was

21:58

an honor position. If you were chosen... to

22:00

do that. You did that with honor and

22:04

you repeated these stories over and over again. That's

22:06

how the stories stayed alive. So

22:09

the accuracy never dwindled because

22:11

they're always telling these stories over and

22:13

over again. I know you probably

22:15

found similar things, right?

22:17

Yes. My

22:20

grandmother was Cherokee Indian and she always

22:23

told us stories about the

22:26

spirits that the Native American believed in. She never specifically

22:28

said big foot or any of that. But there

22:31

is

22:32

an energy that's attached to the land. And

22:34

when you historically look at Pennsylvania, the

22:36

Indians

22:37

were kind of driven out of Pennsylvania

22:39

and into Ohio. And to

22:41

me, the area of Ohio like Tashokton

22:44

and Salt Fork, those

22:46

are areas where these tribes that came from

22:48

Pennsylvania, settled or they

22:50

were with the Moravians. And a lot

22:53

of that energy is also tied to that land,

22:55

which is interesting. When I think

22:57

of big foot, I never ever

22:59

would have thought of big foot in Pennsylvania or

23:01

Ohio. I always think of like the

23:04

West Coast or Canada.

23:06

And

23:07

even then, but when you research

23:09

all this stuff with the Native Americans, it really

23:12

plays an important role in their culture. And I

23:14

think that there's something more to

23:16

it that we have to look at.

23:18

Absolutely. And Jamie,

23:20

I think I might have talked to you about this years

23:22

ago, maybe when I first started the

23:24

Facebook group. But I remember I came

23:26

across a book, I think it was called,

23:29

and this is politically incorrect, but I think it was called Indian

23:32

Trails of Pennsylvania. And I think

23:35

it was the book that I was looking at,

23:37

it had all these old mapped

23:41

out Native American trails throughout

23:44

the state of Pennsylvania. And I think I asked

23:46

you this, but I don't remember what you told me. Do

23:49

you think that if we could identify

23:51

the old Native American trails that they

23:53

used, do you think we'd have a better chance of

23:56

maybe seeing such activity

23:58

of Sasquatch? think that maybe

24:00

they do have this

24:08

Native

24:19

American and a lot of them, that's where you're

24:21

finding a lot of the sightings.

24:25

Even Dave Groves where he had his, that's

24:27

part of Indian Trails.

24:30

Really?

24:31

Yes.

24:32

Wow, that's good to know. I didn't know that. Does he know that? I'm sure

24:34

he does. I'm

24:35

not sure that he does know that. I don't know that I ever

24:38

told him that, but yes.

24:40

That's incredible. I definitely will be connecting

24:42

with him to tell him that. I just, I

24:44

don't know a ton about Native American

24:47

tradition or you know, not

24:50

nearly as much as you do, but I always

24:52

found it fascinating and it's

24:54

one of those things where it's, you either have

24:56

to study up on it yourself or have somebody teach

24:59

you a little bit. Unfortunately for me, I don't have

25:01

a lot of time to do studying, you know, between

25:03

driving trucks 60 hours a week and then doing the

25:05

show and all the stuff I do. The studying

25:08

aspect of thing kind of puts, gets put on the back

25:10

burner. So I rely on people like you who

25:12

do actually know these things to kind of clue

25:14

me in as to what's going on, but

25:17

the Native American aspect of things I think people

25:20

should definitely look into more when it comes, especially

25:22

when it comes to Bigfoot Sasquatch

25:25

because I think there's a direct

25:27

link to the two. And

25:30

also with the, what you mentioned about earlier

25:32

about the Alagui, I mean

25:35

these things, I personally believe that

25:37

these things were real. We found the Barrio

25:39

Mountains and I think it shows

25:42

that at least throughout the region,

25:44

I personally believe throughout the country, throughout the North

25:47

American region at least, there

25:49

was giants that roamed the land and there's

25:51

stories of Native Americans fighting

25:53

these things. Have you come across those stories before? Yeah,

25:56

you know, I've come across them and I've read a

25:58

lot of them and It's

26:01

history, but we don't know how true the history

26:03

is and Native American stuff

26:06

is oral history. In

26:09

the 1800s, they were finding large

26:13

bones, Northeast Pennsylvania, Astra Bula,

26:15

Ohio, West Virginia, down

26:18

near the Pennitentiary

26:20

down in Moundsville,

26:23

West Virginia.

26:24

Moundsville, I just ran across

26:26

somebody from Moundsville. I just can't remember where

26:28

I found this person, but the

26:31

name Moundsville, when you tie it

26:33

together with the Giants,

26:37

that kind of makes sense because I don't know if

26:39

there's a lot of mounds there, but I know that there's

26:41

a lot of burial mounds that people say Giants are

26:43

in. I wonder if there's a connection there. Have you

26:45

ever heard about that at all? Well,

26:47

you know, honestly, I've been to Moundsville,

26:49

but I went to the Pennitentiary for a ghost hunt.

26:52

I've never... You can see the mound from the prison. And

26:55

I don't know that they found bones in the mounds.

26:58

I don't think they did in Moundsville, but

27:00

they have claimed to have found bones

27:03

that went to the Carnegie

27:06

Institute. I don't

27:08

know. The trail of finding

27:10

these bones, that's another big question.

27:13

Will people actually be able to look at them? Who knows?

27:15

I don't know.

27:16

Okay. Yeah.

27:18

So I wanted to kind of shift gears here a little bit.

27:21

And you mentioned about the recorder a little bit.

27:24

I was wondering, for people who maybe haven't

27:26

heard this, when Dave

27:28

came on and shared his story, we talked about it a little

27:30

bit. Would you mind going into, like, how

27:32

the recorder works for people? I know we talked about

27:35

it on a previous show, not you and I, but me and

27:37

Dave. But since it's your recorder, would

27:39

you mind talking about it a little bit for us?

27:41

Well, it's actually not my recorder. I borrow it because

27:44

it's very expensive. Our

27:46

friend, Rochelle, uses...it's called a Panasonic

27:49

DR-60. And basically, it

27:51

became popular in the ghost hunting world

27:53

because basically

27:56

somebody discovered that people were returning

27:58

it to Panasonic because they were... hearing background

28:00

noise, they were hearing voices that

28:03

weren't there. So we started when

28:05

we started ghost hunting at Hey-Ho-View

28:07

Manor where we're both volunteers, this

28:10

recorder we started using it more and more. But what's

28:13

interesting about this recorder in particular

28:15

is our voice comes across like

28:17

our voice and a voice that

28:20

is of a different frequency comes across

28:22

in a different frequency but it's still understandable.

28:25

And the way we record is we'll

28:27

record and we ask intelligent questions

28:30

in order to get intelligent responses back.

28:33

One of the questions might be, how many fingers

28:36

am I holding up? So I'm holding four fingers

28:38

up.

28:39

I've had it come across the recorder,

28:41

I see

28:42

four. You know like a complete sentence.

28:45

It's not just four, it's I see four.

28:47

So when I was in the Alleghenies

28:49

with Dave Groves and Scott Gear, we were

28:52

researching you know at night

28:54

with Bigfoot and I remember Scott Gear's

28:57

daughter was there and we went over to

28:59

the edge of this dark area

29:01

where we were hearing something. It sounded

29:04

like walking. So I started recording and

29:06

I remember like asking different questions but

29:08

I wanted to like establish

29:10

like what is there. You know I don't know if I'm communicating

29:13

with an Indian. I don't know if I'm communicating

29:15

with a ghost but I really did have

29:18

a response on the recorder. You know and people

29:20

can believe that or they don't have to believe that. But I

29:22

know what is on that recorder and

29:25

I even took it to my friend's recording studio

29:27

and a lot of times I'll take recordings

29:30

that I've used in research with Bigfoot

29:32

to his studio and we put them on and we'll play

29:34

them and it's really interesting

29:37

to hear it in an actual studio.

29:40

Yeah now you're talking about where it

29:42

sounds like it says Allegheny, right?

29:45

Yeah and it really does. I mean it says Allegheny,

29:47

like there's no doubt. Right and

29:50

I do remember playing that on the show

29:52

and I will play it right here

29:54

now. Can

29:56

you tell me the name of this forest?

30:00

I can hear you off to my right. Is that you?

30:03

Yes or no? Can

30:06

you tell me the name of this course? I

30:10

can hear you off to my right. Is that you? Yes

30:12

or no? Can

30:16

you tell me the name of this force? I

30:20

can hear you off to my right. Is that you?

30:22

Yes or no?

30:32

So that was the sound and I

30:35

think it's a really awesome recording

30:37

because it really

30:40

shows what you just described as how

30:42

it works and everything. For

30:44

me, I definitely

30:47

hear it saying Allegheny and

30:50

when I played it on the show before, I never had

30:52

anybody email me saying that they

30:55

didn't hear it. I actually had

30:57

people say the opposite that they did hear it in

30:59

the recording. So for you,

31:01

I know you don't look for validation from other

31:03

people but I would just say there's validation for

31:05

you because other people have heard it as well.

31:09

My other favorite recording

31:11

that night was, I don't know why I even said

31:14

it but sometimes I just start saying

31:16

stuff but I said, do

31:18

you have human DNA? I have no idea why

31:20

I asked that but the response

31:22

that I got back was again another

31:24

full sentence and it said, I don't know what

31:26

DNA is. That kind

31:28

of took me aback because when

31:30

I'm ghost hunting, you're

31:33

with a lot of people that

31:35

maybe are of the same frequency of you and

31:37

you can take one person in a group

31:40

and you can ghost hunt with them and maybe that one

31:42

person, you will get nothing. You

31:45

take that one person out of there and you

31:48

start recording and it opens it back up

31:50

and you have experiences. I don't

31:52

know if people are on a frequency and

31:54

it's just how we operate

31:57

or it's like tuning in. a

32:00

frequency and it's received.

32:02

Yeah that's fascinating, that's absolutely fascinating.

32:05

And so you said that you you borrow that recorder

32:08

and it just kind of made me chuckle a little bit when you first

32:10

said that because I remember talking

32:13

to I think it was Brian and Brian

32:15

had looked up how

32:17

you know to buy that recorder because he wanted one and I think

32:19

he said it's like fifteen hundred dollars or something like that.

32:21

They're expensive recorders. This isn't like just something

32:24

you got at Kmart right? Right

32:26

no no it's you know

32:28

it was a recorder that sold for like sixteen dollars

32:30

back in the early 90s and now

32:32

it's like it's gone crazy. But actually

32:37

like when I took it to my friend's recording studio

32:39

and we connected it and he was looking

32:42

at it and he said Jamie this recording the voice

32:44

that you captured on this recorder is below

32:47

28th v which is called

32:49

infrasound. So infrasound a

32:51

lot of people in the Bigfoot community believe that

32:54

animals like they animals do communicate

32:56

in infrasound certain animals. Right.

32:58

But they also believe Bigfoot does. I

33:00

don't I can't say for sure I don't know I don't

33:03

know because I know what I heard the day

33:06

we had our experience was very physical

33:08

and I could hear it but I don't know

33:10

how they communicate in general like

33:12

below human hearing. I don't know and no one

33:14

can really answer that question.

33:17

Yeah well I actually agree with that because you know

33:19

you know that I think it's drafts they

33:22

use infrasound. I know a lot our

33:24

tigers use infrasound. I think even

33:26

whales use infrasound. So for

33:28

me I don't see it far fetched

33:30

at all that you know Sasquatch could use

33:33

such things to communicate or

33:35

even to stun prey. I mean

33:38

if they're hunting for food or something

33:40

like that because I know that's what tigers do

33:42

they actually use that as a weapon. And

33:45

I know I think Dave had said about

33:47

how he kind of went into an area and he felt

33:49

real sick and stuff I'm not saying it's

33:51

Bigfoot but apparently whenever somebody

33:54

new comes into that area it's a very common

33:56

thing that they get very ill at

33:58

first when they enter that area. It just

34:00

makes you wonder what that's all about.

34:06

You and I and Jamie were talking

34:08

before the show and you mentioned that

34:11

you started ghost hunting back in 2004, right?

34:14

Yes, I did.

34:16

Would you share

34:18

with the audience how you got involved in ghost hunting

34:20

before your encounter with Bigfoot?

34:23

Oh, yeah.

34:25

Like I was saying, I was working at

34:27

a doctor's office and the one girl

34:29

I worked with, she's like, hey, do you want to

34:31

go on a ghost hunt? And I'm like,

34:34

a ghost hunt? I'm like, what's that? And she's like,

34:36

yeah, well, that's when you go into

34:38

a honey place and you

34:40

ghost hunt. You communicate with ghosts.

34:43

And I'm like, that sounds cool. I'm

34:45

up for that. So I'm like, okay. So

34:48

she's like, oh, we're going to go to Ohio State

34:50

Reform Mator. And I'm like, okay, I have no

34:52

idea what that is or where it's at. I'll go. So,

34:55

you know, I went with a bunch of people

34:57

and

34:58

we went there and the place is just fabulous.

35:00

I'm like, this place is awesome. And just

35:03

the history of it is just cool if

35:05

anybody out

35:05

there has been there. But, I mean,

35:07

we did have experiences at night, you

35:10

know, because of course I didn't have any

35:12

equipment because this is my first

35:14

time. So, you know, other people

35:16

had equipment and we got responses. You know,

35:18

of course I'm feeling things. I'm like, wow,

35:20

this is interesting.

35:23

I've never been to anything like this before.

35:24

And it was a lot of fun. It

35:26

got me hooked right away.

35:29

So ever since then, I've been doing it.

35:31

That's awesome. That's awesome. So,

35:35

you said that there were some experiences having that night.

35:37

Anything that you'd like to share? Oh, man.

35:39

Well, ever since

35:42

then, you know, I've been having experiences,

35:44

I guess.

35:45

Well, what's one of your favorite experiences

35:47

you've had?

35:48

Oh, wow. Well, just

35:50

my favorite ones. Well,

35:53

it healed you, man or the new cast. I've

35:56

had a lot

35:56

of experiences, not just seeing

35:58

things, but...

36:00

I mean, just being there and feeling

36:03

things and you see, like, you

36:05

just go down one north if anybody out

36:07

there has been to Hillview,

36:09

and at the end of one north, you

36:11

will definitely see somebody standing at

36:14

the end of one north.

36:16

Either walking at the end of one

36:18

north or just standing there, it's pretty

36:21

much guaranteed. I think every time I go there, I'll

36:23

see something there.

36:25

Even like, peeking in and out of the doorways.

36:27

I mean, I've seen it so many

36:29

times. I think my favorite experience was

36:31

kind of funny. Michelle

36:34

was doing a tour and it was

36:36

Halloween of all nights. It was Halloween

36:39

night. And another

36:41

volunteer and I, we were in

36:43

what's called Warren's Room.

36:45

And him and I were in Warren's

36:48

Room and I was, like, speaking to Warren.

36:50

I said, hey, Warren, do you know what tonight is? It's

36:52

Halloween. And I'm like, do you

36:54

want some candy? I can bring you up some candy.

36:57

And all of a sudden, I just got

36:59

this weird, like,

37:01

sound. Like it was almost like the, like,

37:04

on the right side of my body and I could actually

37:06

feel it. And I actually screamed. And

37:08

it actually takes

37:11

a lot to scare me because I've been doing this for a while.

37:14

But I actually screamed and TR,

37:16

the other guy that was with me, he was on the other side

37:19

of the room and he heard it. He was like, I don't know

37:21

if I'm allowed to swear on your show, but he was like, holy shit.

37:24

Everybody

37:27

came running in the room. They're like, what's going on? And

37:29

I'm like, oh, my God, Warren, Warren screamed

37:31

in my ear.

37:33

Wow. That was just kind of funny,

37:35

though. So I'm like, Warren scared me. Wow.

37:39

And that's crazy. I mean, to hear the vocalization

37:41

like that, I can't say I have

37:43

ever, not that I can remember, ever heard

37:45

of vocalization. And I think

37:47

that would freak me out. I really

37:49

do. I think that would freak me out a lot. Oh,

37:52

man. It was pretty cool, though.

37:54

I was like, I had to bring them up some

37:56

candy, then. Have

37:59

you ever seen the...

37:59

the candy disappear?

38:02

No, I don't know. I

38:04

have not. Okay. But

38:07

we do put like balls and stuff like in

38:10

hallways and then we come back and

38:12

they'll be moved. You know, like that's

38:14

when the volunteers are there by themselves.

38:17

So nobody else is in the building and

38:19

we'll come back to that same spot and they'll be moved.

38:21

You

38:22

know, there's no wind. There's nothing that can

38:24

move them. So I've never actually

38:27

known of anything to disappear.

38:30

Did you guys start ghost hunting together

38:32

before your Bigfoot encounter? Yes.

38:36

Okay, so the teamwork

38:38

I'm sure the the chemistry

38:40

between you two was great for getting into

38:43

Bigfoot researching into your

38:45

area. I still, like I said, I still

38:47

think it's awesome that you guys are working

38:50

together in the focused area

38:52

and it's just awesome. I know it means so much to you guys.

38:54

Like it's a very emotional experience.

38:56

This isn't like something that people are

38:58

just going, you're just going out there to hang out and see

39:01

what happens. Like it's an emotional thing for you

39:03

guys, how it all developed and how it's

39:05

progressing to this point. So there's

39:07

a lot of respect there that I have for you guys. Jamie,

39:11

earlier you mentioned about the lights, the balls,

39:13

I think you called it balls of light, right? That you

39:15

that you could hold in your hand. You

39:17

know, I would call them beams of light. They were three.

39:20

Okay. So

39:23

you couldn't like feel it or anything? You

39:25

just... No, no. Honestly, when I

39:27

first opened my eyes, I put

39:30

my hand through it. Like it was through it. But

39:32

I could hold them in my hand. So it's you know,

39:34

like Tony, I know it sounds crazy. I know

39:36

it does. But for one

39:38

entire month, I could close

39:41

my eyes, open them and they would be there. And

39:43

to me, it was more like it wasn't a matter

39:46

of, it was like a peaceful

39:48

feeling. And if anybody

39:50

knows the relationship that I had with my parents,

39:52

they were like my best friends. So losing

39:55

both of them was very, very hard. So the

39:58

connection between my parents and... myself goes

40:01

beyond this physical body.

40:04

Sure.

40:06

Okay. Yeah, I was just trying

40:08

to gauge as to what you were

40:10

experiencing there. But that's

40:13

very interesting, man. Like, I

40:15

don't see why anybody would, you know, want to doubt.

40:18

I guess I can understand why you feel like some people

40:20

would doubt you on that and stuff. But

40:22

I definitely find that interesting. I've heard so many different

40:24

stories of people's experiences, especially

40:27

once somebody that they loved had

40:30

passed away, you know, the different experiences

40:32

they've had. It's just, for me, it's

40:34

like I look at them like, yeah, of course. Like,

40:37

of course people are experiencing these kind of things. Now,

40:41

when you guys, I wanted to ask you, and I keep forgetting to

40:43

ask you this, when you were out

40:46

there and you had your first experience

40:48

with what you thought was a

40:50

Bigfoot, at the time you didn't know what it was,

40:53

but looking back, you think it probably was a Bigfoot. You

40:56

described it that the trees were shaking and

40:58

you saw ripples in the stream. How

41:02

heavy do you think this thing was that was walking?

41:04

Do you think this is something that was just

41:07

really heavy physically? Or do you think there was maybe

41:09

something else going on there? Because, I

41:11

mean, it would take a lot to make a stream

41:13

ripple, you know? I mean, was it that close to you, do

41:16

you think? Go

41:17

ahead, Jenny. I think

41:20

the vocalization that it made, I don't

41:24

know how to describe it. I

41:26

don't know if it...

41:28

It was just, it seemed so loud.

41:31

It was sort of like a rush of air

41:33

that kind of hit us, like a wall of air.

41:36

A

41:36

wall of sound. A wall of sound that really hit us. It

41:39

was like

41:39

a... You could actually feel it

41:41

in your body.

41:43

So,

41:45

it was very Jurassic Park. It

41:47

was pretty crazy. Like,

41:51

I don't... Yeah,

41:54

it was

41:55

just so loud. I can't tell

41:57

you how far away it was, because we're in a stream.

42:01

was, it kind of went uphill from there

42:04

and there were the trees but then from where the trees

42:06

were and then it kind of goes down a little

42:08

bit.

42:10

So if there was something up there,

42:12

it

42:13

would have been hidden. It's an interesting

42:16

area in the ways

42:18

that you

42:18

safe, ethical and responsible manufacturing practices

42:20

and premium eco-friendly fabrics and finishes.

42:22

So you have nothing to worry about, this isn't fast fashion

42:24

by any stretch and I mean that's not dirt

42:26

cheap but they're just so good for what you get.

42:29

We're talking 100% Mongolian cashmere, sweaters,

42:33

suede leather jackets, silk blouses and dresses.

42:35

They have this washable silk. I have the slip dress, I

42:37

have the short one and the long one. Washable silk,

42:39

again I just throw it in the washer on gentle of course

42:42

or hand wash and hang dry it. You don't

42:44

have to take it to the drag cleaner. Holiquences prices

42:46

are 50 to 80% less than similar brands

42:49

and they really create timeless classics that

42:51

never go out of style. So right now that is

42:53

a trend. Is this like quiet luxury,

42:56

just classic old money? I heard

42:58

someone describe it, I think Alyssa was like this is a style

43:00

right now. It's like looking like you have old money. So this

43:02

is where to start. If you're like I don't really dress

43:04

like that but I want to get involved but I don't want the

43:06

hugest budget in the world, this is where to go. I'm

43:09

just looking on their site now. Again there's just this

43:11

great silk v-neck cami.

43:13

Again the sweaters, there's this cashmere midi

43:15

skirt. Okay so something like that, like you just

43:17

get a cashmere skirt. Have you ever thought to wear a cashmere

43:20

skirt? I haven't but I'm gonna start. Collared

43:22

shirts, there's a stretch silk collar blouse

43:24

for literally like $69.90.

43:25

The cashmere skirt is $99. I just want

43:28

to rat off some of these prices so you guys know what we're talking

43:30

about. Cashmere v-neck sweater for $50, cashmere tee for $44.90

43:32

and there's great lounge stuff

43:37

too. Like I have this little set that I always wear, I have

43:39

these like great shorts at like our fleece line and they're

43:41

so soft. Alpaca wool cropped cardigan,

43:43

we love a cardigan. So those are just some items that

43:46

you can shop and again all of Aiquins prices are 50 to 80%

43:48

less than similar brands. We want you

43:51

guys to get on it. We are obsessed with it. You

43:53

43:55

44:09

Okay, and an app that needs no

44:11

introduction, Hinge, the dating

44:14

app designed to be deleted. Hinge allows you

44:16

to find great dates through profile features

44:18

that help you date more intentionally. Download

44:20

Hinge and share your dating intentions to find

44:22

someone worth deleting the app for. So, Ashley

44:24

and I actually were just playing around with Hinge

44:27

this weekend, and one of the things I love about

44:29

it is it really does help you to date intentionally.

44:32

And their whole thing is about knowing who you

44:34

are and what you're looking for and expressing those desires

44:36

and wants to others. And I think they really facilitate

44:39

a way of doing that that is fun,

44:41

light, easy. You can be brief,

44:43

it opens conversation. With dating

44:46

intentions, you can add what kind of relationship you're looking for

44:48

and a profile. So maybe you're looking for something short-term,

44:50

long-term, a life partner. I've been seeing

44:53

so much of this on Hinge, people using this

44:55

feature, and I just love it. And I've been seeing

44:57

so many people write long-term relationship, and

44:59

it's nice to see somebody be intentional about

45:02

intentional dating. Yeah, I mean, this is what the whole episode

45:04

is gonna be about. So we don't need to blow our load during

45:06

the ad read, but I was getting so

45:08

excited looking at your Hinge and

45:10

going through all these guys and seeing that most people are

45:12

saying that. Also,

45:14

you had your age range set probably to mid-30s to

45:18

early 40s, whatever. It was just refreshing

45:20

to see that at least that's what people, I mean,

45:22

let's hope they're being honest. Allegedly. Allegedly.

45:26

I loved it. I think that's such a great feature. But I also

45:28

think that what you put out into

45:30

the world is what you get back. And if you start out saying,

45:33

I want something long-term and serious,

45:35

that is what you'll get back. And then there's no confusion,

45:37

there's no assumptions, because when I say to somebody, well, you

45:39

said you wanted a long-term relationship, they can't say, no, you didn't.

45:42

I'm proof.

45:43

It is the ultimate receipt.

45:45

I mean,

45:47

truly

45:48

though, Hinge, get those receipts. It's

45:50

so smart for

45:52

so many different reasons, and we can joke about receipts

45:54

and all that kind of stuff, but it really is just like,

45:57

there's no question, and then someone

45:59

really needs to be honest.

45:59

with you.

46:01

You can't have someone being like, well, I told you I never wanted

46:03

anything. It's like, what? No, you didn't. Yeah.

46:05

So we love it. Yes. And right now you

46:08

can download a agent, share your dating attention to find

46:10

someone

46:10

worth the leading the app for.

46:12

Okay.

46:12

Rusty time.

46:14

You guys, I have really

46:17

gate kept this story. I

46:19

brought it up, but I was like, right now we never told

46:21

our dedicated listeners what happened.

46:24

We only were sharing at the live shows. And of course we'll give

46:26

you the backstory when we're talking about if you're a newer

46:28

listener here, if you are, thank you for being here. But I

46:30

really told a lot of stories about

46:32

this guy and then we just kind of stopped talking about him. So

46:34

I was talking about him at the live shows. So basically

46:37

what had happened is I went to this art gallery and

46:39

there was this guy working there for the day.

46:41

His friend who owned the gallery had

46:43

gone down to an art show and

46:45

this guy was just there for the day. And I thought he was so gorgeous

46:48

and a little bit quiet and withholding and

46:50

so sexy. And I was like trying to get him to like,

46:52

give me his information. And oh my god Azul

46:55

just like plopped down on top of me. I know.

46:57

And I'm so sorry. He is getting

46:59

a bath tomorrow. He smells bad. I can always

47:01

smell animals now though. Babes are not. It's extra

47:03

today. Sorry. Actually,

47:05

the fans like stop bothering me.

47:07

You guys are watching

47:09

YouTube, which he's shoving. He was just like with

47:11

this family all week and their

47:13

dogs. That was so cute. I know.

47:15

So he's just, he's been playing. He's overdue.

47:17

But he gets screwed tomorrow. I can't smell him which means

47:19

I'm sick. Yeah. So

47:22

anyways, I was trying to find

47:24

this guy. I tried to get his information. He did not

47:26

give it to me. I gave it to him, but he put it on the gallery

47:29

list and put my phone number and email down

47:31

on the gallery list. And the saga continued

47:33

of me just buying art from this gallery, trying

47:35

to talk to the owners and find out who this guy was

47:37

and how I could find him. And I think

47:40

that was like the last I ever updated you

47:42

guys about. But I bought this art. I went

47:44

back up to the gallery to buy the art. I bring him up like

47:46

a third time to the owners and they completely

47:48

swap my mention away. Yeah. And that's it.

47:51

That's the end of the story. So I'm going to give

47:53

you the rest of the story now. And I'm

47:55

really excited you guys weird to like not

47:57

hear a bunch of applause and cheering. I

47:59

know.

47:59

We really want crazy for it. Yes, people went

48:02

crazy for this at the live shows. And we call him

48:04

Rusty because I couldn't give you guys his real name,

48:06

but that was Ashley's family's dog name. One of

48:08

them, yes. So the part of the

48:10

story of me basically picking

48:13

up the art finally was that on

48:16

my way out the door, I don't want

48:18

to bury the lead. We found him.

48:20

Yeah, we found him. And I went out with him.

48:22

But the way that I found him was so crazy.

48:25

So I went up and I picked

48:27

up this final piece of art that I was buying from the gallery. On

48:30

my way out the door, there's this girl at the desk.

48:32

She's so cute. And she kind of looks up at me. She works there.

48:34

And she was like, what do you do? And I said,

48:37

I just podcast called Girls Giddy. And she was like,

48:39

maybe I'll

48:39

listen some time. What's it about? I tell her a little bit about

48:42

it. And then I leave. And then that's the end. That

48:44

is the end of the story. I don't think I'll ever hear from these people again.

48:47

And about what, two weeks later,

48:49

I forget all about the whole situation.

48:51

I forget we've been talking about this for weeks. I

48:53

forget that there's Instagram clips about this. And

48:56

we are sitting at my house with a room

48:58

full of girls. There's like eight of us here. And

49:01

I get a text message from a number that I don't know. It

49:03

pops up my phone. And it is

49:06

the girl from the gallery.

49:07

And she says, hi, it's so and so from

49:09

this gallery. I'm driving

49:12

on Sunset and I'm listening to the podcast.

49:15

And I

49:17

am losing my shit. I

49:19

am just like, what does the dot dot dot mean? Immediately,

49:21

I'm just like, this is her boyfriend. This is her boyfriend that

49:24

I've been talking about the podcast every single week. And

49:26

she knows him. And she's like, are you fucking serious? You

49:28

told me to listen to the podcast. I'm listening to you talk to my boyfriend

49:30

every week. And so I mean,

49:33

I thought it sounded you could

49:35

take it either way. And I was like, you only have one option

49:37

here. You just have to be like, oh, well, he he

49:39

he he he. You like just have to act

49:41

like she's being light. Like

49:43

you have to even play dumb if she's

49:45

just like, bitch, I'm about to fuck you up. You have to be like,

49:48

thanks for listening. Right. Also, what's

49:50

she gonna do about it? So we crowdsource the

49:52

whole room. Everybody comes to the conclusion that

49:54

that's the text. And so we're just like, thank

49:56

you so much for listening. And

49:59

she writes back. Well, she said I'm happy

50:01

to facilitate the rusty. I'm happy

50:03

to facilitate the introduction.

50:05

Yeah, and I like lose my mind We're all

50:07

screaming in the best like our moment.

50:09

We are all just like losing it I'm like, oh my god,

50:11

she's gonna do it and she's like, let me know you want me to do Do

50:14

you want me to give you his number? Do you want me to invite

50:16

you both to like a situation at the gallery that's come to

50:18

a party together? and I was like just give

50:20

him my number and if he wants to talk to me he can and so

50:25

Literally in 10 minutes. I get a text

50:27

from him and it says hi

50:29

Reina it's rusty but

50:32

he didn't say rusty and that his

50:34

name is his real name And I think he kind of

50:36

knew like he should have said rusty if he had

50:38

a good sense of humor For

50:40

in the first place. Yeah

50:42

orange flag. Yes, we

50:44

didn't love it. But again, you know, maybe he didn't know

50:46

Maybe she didn't tell him maybe she didn't tell him. Yeah, we gave him the benefit

50:49

of the doubt Maybe he thinks I'm just using his

50:51

real name on this podcast for millions people to hear. So

50:54

I wrote back. Hi rusty And

50:57

He left me on read and

50:59

that was it no response Let me jump in

51:02

because also this night if you've been following

51:04

along in our lives We were just having so

51:06

much fun like laughing about this I mean, it was like peak

51:09

girls night for this to be happening We're all

51:11

like on the edge of our seats And that is when I was

51:13

like the guy from the plane if you guys

51:15

remember the riot guy that was on the plane That

51:17

is the night that I sent him that ghost emoji Cuz

51:20

I was like, I think I'm just gonna do it like let's keep

51:22

the momentum up Because we were like kind of

51:24

once rusty didn't respond. We're all just sitting there

51:26

like what's that? We and I was like,

51:29

I think

51:29

I'm gonna ghost emoji this guy never

51:32

It was the highest high we ever felt

51:35

and I was just like I've been talking about this thing

51:37

thinking about this guy I'm pretty sure he is the love

51:39

of my life for months and he is finally

51:42

in my phone and he is gonna leave

51:44

me on Red I was like I cannot believe

51:46

is happening and I just was so convinced

51:48

that like I had to go out him and like see this So

51:51

the next day I was driving around and I was just like

51:53

I'm just gonna text him and see you So I was like anyways

51:56

now that we got that out of the way. It's so funny.

51:58

We listen to the podcast. I'm so embarrassed

52:00

And he was like, about what?

52:03

And I was like, oh god, I

52:05

don't care. I don't care what he says, I'm gonna

52:07

see this through. And I'm like, okay,

52:10

anyways, so what's going on? And he was like, do you wanna

52:12

talk on the phone? And I was like, speaking

52:14

my love language, yes, phone calls are my favorite

52:16

thing. So he called me and we had like

52:19

a 45 minute phone call and it was fine.

52:22

Yeah.

52:25

I mean, probably at that

52:28

point, you knew it wasn't a fit. And

52:30

if it wasn't for this whole saga

52:33

and really wanting to see this through, you probably

52:35

wouldn't have gone out with him, right? You probably would have been like,

52:38

this just doesn't feel like we're vibing. Yeah,

52:40

I could sort of see the writing on the wall. Yeah. Totally

52:42

nice, really polite person. Just

52:45

nothing in common with me. You weren't vibing. You

52:47

have a very specific, not so rare, but

52:49

you have a certain type of sense of humor and sarcasm

52:52

and way of joking around and you

52:55

match it or you don't. I had a hard time sparking

52:57

joy in him during that. I'm always

52:59

just like, what's this thing we can get into

53:01

that we're both really into, we can get excited about,

53:03

we can share and laugh. And like, typically

53:06

I try to make that a thing about the other person.

53:09

I can talk about the podcasts and the live shows and the sex

53:11

toy company all day long, but I like

53:13

it. Like Jenny said, there's

53:15

a stream bed that feeds into the shanango and

53:18

then it goes up and then it goes down in.

53:20

And where it goes down in, there's a lot of like

53:23

mounds, like I guess I would call them mounds. And

53:25

there's like these little valleys and it's

53:29

just really super interesting.

53:32

Yeah, I mean, it sounds interesting. When

53:35

I hear you describe it, the thing I'm thinking

53:37

of mentally in my head to picture this

53:39

is like those cartoons where the sound waves

53:41

knock the people over. Like you physically

53:44

feel it.

53:47

Super

53:49

sonic. What

53:52

was really strange about that whole thing is like, Jenny

53:54

and I did not, it

53:56

was like the silent agreement that we made with

53:58

our eyes, like just. get out of here because

54:01

we knew that whatever we were experiencing

54:03

right then and there was not something

54:05

that really

54:08

we wanted to stick around for. Yeah, it was like we

54:10

just didn't know. And

54:12

you know what? I think I carried my beagle the entire

54:14

way out. Yeah, we really did.

54:17

Yeah. I

54:18

can imagine.

54:19

I absolutely can imagine. You

54:22

know, I secretly wish that there

54:24

were still giants roaming around Pennsylvania. I

54:26

guess it's not a secret anymore. But

54:29

I just when I hear the stories of the giants

54:31

and stuff and I heard your story of the

54:33

tree shaking and I just I really

54:35

wish you would have said and then we saw a giant.

54:38

Like that sort of sounds like

54:40

you know, I just I don't know. Like you brought

54:42

the whole giant thing up and stuff. I just I'm

54:45

fascinated by the whole topic of

54:48

giants and the idea that the biblical

54:50

accounts of the Nephilim and all those things. And

54:53

I do believe that you know, North

54:55

America had giants in it and

54:57

they did walk this land at one time. And

54:59

how did they get here and all that stuff? I'm fascinated

55:01

by it. But the

55:04

word giant too is just it's a play

55:06

on words. So it's something larger than a human,

55:08

right? That's what I think.

55:11

I mean, I mean, if you say giant, yeah,

55:14

I would say that. But if you

55:16

were to say Nephilim, well, that's

55:18

a whole different thing then, you know, because the

55:21

biblical account of Nephilim where that's where that

55:23

term comes from, it's

55:25

a description of something that isn't human.

55:28

It's a hybrid between a spiritual being

55:30

of a fallen angel and

55:32

a human being. So similar

55:35

to the jinn.

55:37

What's jinn?

55:38

Jinn, like J-I-N-N.

55:43

It's basically, Jenny can probably describe

55:45

it better. I don't know. I think jinn are

55:47

different than Nephilim

55:49

because that's... Angels are

55:51

different than jinn. I

55:53

don't know a whole lot about it. Somebody said, you

55:56

know, like maybe you experienced jinn or something. I'm like,

55:58

I don't know what that really is, but... It's

56:01

similar to the Nephilim, which

56:03

I don't know. You know, I don't know. Even the Bible,

56:06

those are handed down stories.

56:08

Right.

56:08

You know, I find it

56:11

interesting because there's

56:13

a lot of different stories

56:15

out there throughout different cultures describing

56:18

very similar things that just have different names for them.

56:21

And I'd be very interested to hear about

56:23

Jyn. I haven't really heard much about

56:25

it. But I mean, if you look at even the,

56:29

like Zeus and all the Greek gods

56:31

and things like that and how that all unfolds,

56:33

it's very similar to what the Bible

56:36

talks about and what other cultures

56:38

talk about. And I just find it fascinating that

56:40

I think the more you look into things, the more you see

56:42

that different cultures all over the world have

56:45

very similar experiences. They just call it

56:47

different names. And you know, I

56:50

think over time people have been starting to

56:52

connect the dots. And I haven't

56:54

really heard about Jyn before. I think I

56:56

should look that up. Maybe

56:58

you should talk to my friend Barry, but he's the one

57:00

that like talked to me about it. But

57:03

it sounds to me like it's similar to Nephilim.

57:06

Okay. Yeah.

57:08

Yeah, you should research it. Yeah.

57:10

Absolutely. So I really

57:12

appreciate you guys coming on and just sharing some of your

57:14

experiences and stuff. This was a lot of fun

57:16

for me. This is something that Jamie, I

57:19

told you, I think a while ago that I wouldn't mind

57:21

talking to you on the show. And the

57:23

fact that you were able to have Jenny come on too, that's

57:25

just an added bonus. So you

57:27

guys are great. And I really look forward to hanging

57:29

out with you guys sometime.

57:31

Tony, let's go camping in the alligators. Hey,

57:33

that works for me. Bring your recorder. Okay.

57:36

Yeah, cool.

57:37

Well, it was great talking to you guys.

57:40

And thanks for coming on the show.

57:42

Yeah. Thank you.

57:49

Well, that's a short buddy. I really hope you enjoyed it. You

57:51

can go ahead and share the link to the show that you're listening

57:53

to right now around social media. That will

57:55

help expose the show to an audience that didn't know

57:57

about the show beforehand. And until next week.

Etsy dot com. I have to preserve a lot

1:09:34

of that, because that is the most exciting stuff

1:09:36

that we do. But I like to just

1:09:38

get to know somebody a little bit better. You're trying to

1:09:40

find, you know, do we like the same music,

1:09:43

TV shows, travel, whatever? I just

1:09:45

couldn't get there with this person at all. It

1:09:47

was like doom from the start. If a person can't have

1:09:50

a fun, good

1:09:52

conversation with you, that's a them problem.

1:09:55

With me? That's what I'm saying. You do

1:09:57

this for a living. You're really good at it. the

1:10:00

best at it. Like if someone can't

1:10:02

vibe with that this isn't a fit. Yeah I just I

1:10:04

didn't think that anything I said interested him. Yeah. And

1:10:06

he just was perfectly nice and polite

1:10:09

and I honestly loved his accent

1:10:11

he asked me to talk on the phone. I was like

1:10:13

okay this could be cool but I was like I'm gonna go

1:10:15

see him in person cuz he's so hot. So like maybe

1:10:18

it's not a conversational fit

1:10:20

but I'm gonna climb that. So I'm

1:10:22

definitely gonna fucking. Okay.

1:10:27

She did not fucking. We

1:10:33

did go on a date again I did this for you guys

1:10:35

but I was just like let me see this room. Not everybody gives

1:10:37

good phone and not everybody is great

1:10:39

on a first date and it's just like we're in awkward

1:10:41

he's probably like this fucking girl serious she

1:10:44

met me on a Saturday in the middle of the afternoon

1:10:46

and she's been talking about this on the podcast

1:10:48

for a week. She's been spending money to try to meet

1:10:50

me. She's just been like draining

1:10:52

her bank account on art. All right he's probably like

1:10:54

she's a stalker and she's a little bit crazy

1:10:57

you know so I understand his trepidation a little

1:10:59

bit. Yeah. So we did meet up we went

1:11:01

to a bar and it was definitely

1:11:02

the same thing in person like nothing I said

1:11:05

made him latch. And that's pretty rare

1:11:07

for me.

1:11:10

I tried everything I tried pop

1:11:12

culture

1:11:13

I tried there was a finale of something

1:11:15

that night succession. I tried succession.

1:11:18

I tried our podcast.

1:11:21

I tried the lowest form of human communication

1:11:23

which is what did you do during quarantine. Oh

1:11:28

yeah what I

1:11:29

forget what show it was when we just went off about this. It's

1:11:31

like if you were asking someone what they did three years

1:11:33

ago we have a problem. At the worst time

1:11:35

in the world and I don't want to talk about it it's not interesting

1:11:38

to me. Here's the thing I actually like at some

1:11:40

point you do want to know that about somebody like right

1:11:42

I actually do that was such a shared

1:11:45

collective experience that you want to know what someone

1:11:47

did during it but yeah it's for you it was out

1:11:49

of desperation. I don't want to result

1:11:51

to it because I have to yeah I want that

1:11:53

to like yeah of course that is so funny like

1:11:56

a first date like if you're getting to

1:11:58

like so what did you do during COVID? it. Well,

1:12:01

it's funny you say shared experiences.

1:12:03

I'm like, I can't get this guy to be interested in anything

1:12:05

I have to say. Let me pick the only thing we ever

1:12:08

shared. Yes, that is COVID. Funny, the only thing

1:12:10

we've ever shared was a worldwide pandemic.

1:12:14

It wasn't a match. I still love that gallery. I'm

1:12:16

still a big fan of their art. I know they keep mailing letters

1:12:18

to you the other day. Oh my God, they

1:12:20

still text you. And I think he knew it too.

1:12:23

This is really never happened to me before I left

1:12:25

the date and I went home and he did not like text

1:12:27

me to see if I got home okay. He didn't say like

1:12:29

I had a nice time. I think it was just

1:12:31

sort of mutual that he just like wasn't really that

1:12:33

into it either. I mean, I don't know who wouldn't be into me. I'm

1:12:35

amazing on a date. I give amazing date. And

1:12:38

all we did was talk about him. So, because no one

1:12:40

asked me any questions on the date. But I picked an

1:12:42

awesome place that had like great food and

1:12:45

like a great bar and I just don't think he was into

1:12:47

it. And then he did text me the day after

1:12:49

that, like almost 48 hours later

1:12:51

and just said like, how was your day? And I just let it die. Yeah.

1:12:54

You know what?

1:12:55

Well, sorry to be anti-climactic. I mean, that's

1:12:57

it guys. But that's the story. I don't think it's anti-climatic just

1:12:59

because like I had no way

1:13:01

of finding this person or contacting him. And I

1:13:03

was really pretty sure this is what I was supposed to be because he's

1:13:06

so tall and bald and just

1:13:08

hot. Well, yes, the climax

1:13:10

of the story is in the middle when you were texting

1:13:13

with the, she's the real hero.

1:13:15

Yeah. Like that's the best part of the story. Like go to

1:13:17

here, just like losing your goddamn mind. And then it just kind

1:13:19

of like peters out. It's like when someone comes,

1:13:21

not enough. Well, you know, it's like a little,

1:13:23

you know what I mean? It's just like a tiny bit of cum.

1:13:26

So we have to come back to those people. Yeah. Or

1:13:28

you go to the bathroom to push it out and you're like, nothing's coming out. What's

1:13:31

really funny is that like, when I met him,

1:13:33

I thought he was just kind of like quiet and

1:13:35

brooding. Like I thought that he was like,

1:13:37

it was sexy to me. Totally. But when I

1:13:40

got to know him better, I was like, oh, you just don't have

1:13:42

anything to say to me. Yeah. That's

1:13:44

so funny. You think someone's like sexy, mysterious. And you're like,

1:13:47

no, they just don't have any

1:13:49

no contest.

1:13:51

So that's the rusty story. I felt bad.

1:13:54

I like left you guys hanging and it was

1:13:56

such a saga and I did like keep trying to go back.

1:13:58

I wonder if the owners like know this story. Oh well,

1:14:00

no now.

1:14:01

Send them the link. Send them the link. But

1:14:04

that girl is an icon and she is such

1:14:07

a cool wing woman too because she was just like how

1:14:09

can I help facilitate this for you and just

1:14:11

like offered me all the information. Also, she found

1:14:13

my number through the gallery mailing

1:14:15

list. Yeah. Which I love. So

1:14:17

that's the story. Okay. So

1:14:20

I am so excited to tell you guys

1:14:22

about AG1. Here's the deal. Rain

1:14:24

and I have just been traveling all over, been in

1:14:26

and out of airports. Like we were both feeling super run

1:14:28

down. So I was taking my

1:14:31

AG1 with me

1:14:31

on the trip but I feel like there's sometimes no way to combat

1:14:34

like all the germs like jet lag or whatever

1:14:36

else you're dealing with. So I couldn't wait to be

1:14:38

back at home and like put it in my smoothie this morning

1:14:41

and I'm just so excited to be back in my routine.

1:14:43

So we do love AG1. It's a nutritional

1:14:45

supplement. It's going to be your foundational

1:14:47

nutrition product and

1:14:50

this is great if you're trying to boost your immune

1:14:52

system or optimize your gut

1:14:54

health, stress management, just feel better all

1:14:56

over. And you can really just replace your multivitamin

1:14:59

with this. So every scoop has

1:15:01

your prebiotics,

1:15:01

probiotics, digestive enzymes

1:15:03

for gut support, magnesium and B vitamins for

1:15:06

energy support, adaptogens to balance your

1:15:08

body's stress levels, vitamin C and zinc

1:15:10

to help support your immune health. And we

1:15:12

just love this and it's so easy to incorporate

1:15:14

into your daily routine. You're just going to put a scoop

1:15:16

of it or if you have the travel pack in a glass of cold

1:15:19

water and mix it up and just drink it

1:15:21

and it really does work. There is a team of doctors

1:15:23

and scientists that have tested it for all

1:15:25

the contaminants and it's formulated based

1:15:27

on the latest science and maintains high quality

1:15:30

standards. So we have hooked everybody

1:15:31

onto this and I really feel like it has impacted

1:15:34

me. Again like I'm a little rundown sniffly

1:15:36

right now but I feel like if it wasn't for AG1 and all

1:15:39

the other stuff I've been doing for my immune system, I would be sick

1:15:41

as a dog. So I'll be fine. I'll

1:15:43

be fine by the weekend. Don't worry everybody. I have

1:15:45

a whole itinerary. So we're just such fans

1:15:47

of it and it really is the supplement

1:15:49

that we trust to provide the support

1:15:52

our bodies need daily and that is why they have been

1:15:54

a partner for so long. We love them. If

1:15:56

you want to take ownership of your health, it starts with AG1. Try

tell what she had this week. Not even what I just did. Just

1:16:55

now, Sparkly sent me his HelloFresh meal,

1:16:57

these mushroom Swiss burgers. There are beef,

1:16:59

you guys. So here's the thing.

1:17:02

When we first started dating, he was using a

1:17:04

competitor, not gonna say any names, and

1:17:06

I was like, you cannot be in a relationship

1:17:09

with me. If you're not using

1:17:11

any meal kit, fine. But if you're using

1:17:13

a meal kit, it has to be HelloFresh. I

1:17:15

was like, they're a part of the family. You have

1:17:17

to get on this. And it took a few weeks and I fully

1:17:20

transitioned him over. He's on his third

1:17:22

week. He shares his meal with me every time and

1:17:24

he's fully cooking it. So we're a full HelloFresh

1:17:27

family. Oh my God. I really feel like he

1:17:29

has some loyalty and it's

1:17:31

fine. We got him converted and now he's on board.

1:17:33

He used our code. He's been sharing the code at work. My

1:17:36

God. He's really on board. Promotion

1:17:38

engine. Yeah. I've used competitors

1:17:40

before. I've never enjoyed cooking a meal

1:17:42

kit so much as HelloFresh and there is so

1:17:45

much flexibility in the app, in skipping

1:17:47

a week if you need to, changing delivery addresses, adding

1:17:50

a protein to something, adding a side. There

1:17:59

1:18:01

shawarma spiced chickpeas. I just love a vegan

1:18:05

meal every once in a while. Also spicy

1:18:08

coconut curry turkey noodle soup.

1:18:10

You know I love a curry. Their curries are so good. You

1:18:12

1:18:15

curried chickpea burgers. So what's

1:18:17

that one? Spicy coconut curry pork

1:18:19

noodle soup and I've like switched

1:18:21

out the pork for chicken

1:18:23

sausage or whatever. I don't know. I'm

1:18:49

update on our trip. We

1:18:52

went to London and Paris and Dublin.

1:18:54

We had a show in London which was incredible. It

1:18:57

was really hot. There was no AC in the venue and there was

1:18:59

a heat wave in London. So I just want to address a thank you

1:19:01

all who came for sweating with us

1:19:03

and powering through. We were sweating our

1:19:05

asses off up there too. They brought a fan up so

1:19:07

I felt like Beyonce for a minute. But regardless,

1:19:10

I'm just saying thank you to the people that came

1:19:12

there because it wasn't the most physically comfortable

1:19:15

show and you know how I am. So

1:19:17

anyway, but we loved it and we had

1:19:19

the best time and that was our first time there and

1:19:21

we just couldn't have loved it anymore. I mean, again, it

1:19:23

could have been cooler, but we really

1:19:25

had such a good time. We met some of you on stage

1:19:28

and I mean, I don't know what else to say besides

1:19:30

it was really so wonderful. It was special. I

1:19:32

had a moment backstage where I was just like, I can't believe we get

1:19:34

to do this in another country

1:19:37

and pack out a theater here and people all over

1:19:39

the world listen to this and so many

1:19:41

people traveled from India,

1:19:44

Germany, just Amsterdam all

1:19:47

over. And it was just, it's an honor

1:19:49

that people would do that and plan their vacations around

1:19:51

us. And it's just really special to be able to do it. So

1:19:53

thank you. And of course, thank you for coming to all the shows, but

1:19:55

to be in the UK was really cool. first

1:19:59

time we've been there. So we had a great time raining and

1:20:01

see about her family coming and stuff, but my cousin who

1:20:03

lives in Amsterdam came So it was so

1:20:05

wonderful to see her I mean she's just been

1:20:08

like you know We've been so close since I

1:20:10

was born and it was so wonderful to

1:20:12

have her there and she was just so emotional I mean

1:20:14

she just hasn't seen a show yet She's my

1:20:16

family that lives in Miami, but she married a Dutch guy

1:20:18

and she lives in Amsterdam now So she was just like I can't

1:20:20

believe this is what you do You know what I mean

1:20:22

like someone who like has known me since a baby

1:20:25

like a kid I don't know. She's the last family member

1:20:27

that I had. Yeah, exactly

1:20:29

She's truly

1:20:29

you've met my entire family like I've ended so

1:20:32

she was on zoom for an athletic.

1:20:34

Oh, yeah Oh, yeah, she could make to the wedding. Yeah, I

1:20:36

1:20:39

1:20:51

loved and we just loved being in London in

1:20:53

general and Obviously like just typical

1:20:56

Ashley planned the whole trip spent so much

1:20:58

time researching Restaurants to

1:20:59

go to activities and you really did plan it

1:21:02

top to bottom. So that was really special Thank

1:21:04

you for doing that So after we left London we went to

Paris and if you guys are OG fans one of the first

1:21:08

episodes we ever did We went to Paris

1:21:10

together Ashley and I we just we

1:21:12

didn't plan So it's a hard city

1:21:14

to go to when you just like don't know when anything's

1:21:16

open. You haven't made any reservations It's such

1:21:19

a vast city, too So any

1:21:21

city of to plan in but really that was tough having no plans

1:21:23

then well We didn't have any money and we were sharing

1:21:26

a bed And we had some money like,

1:21:28

you know, we weren't like 25

1:21:29

But like we hadn't made money where

1:21:32

it was like we're both gonna stay in a

1:21:34

nice hotel by ourselves Like we

1:21:36

were still like sharing hotel rooms at the point. We like shared

1:21:38

a fucking bed in Paris Like my

romantic. Like that was my fourth time

1:22:02

there. The first time being in high school, I took French,

1:22:05

we went there my senior year, it was so unreal.

1:22:07

And then one time I went with Rob and

1:22:09

a big group of my Atlanta friends, and that was so much fun.

1:22:11

And then the third time you and I, which was like my

1:22:14

least favorite time in years too. And

1:22:16

then this was like going back and Rob came with us too.

1:22:18

When we took the Eurostar over from London, it was super

1:22:20

easy and like a great experience. And yeah,

1:22:23

I mean, it was just, it was wonderful. We had

1:22:25

not great weather. It kind of rained our full day

1:22:27

there. But you know, we did some shopping, sat outside

1:22:30

some cafes, had some

1:22:30

really good meals. And I want to go back

1:22:32

there just like with sparkly

1:22:34

eyes. Like I feel like I've done it the other

1:22:36

ways. And like it is so like Paris

1:22:38

is the city you just walk around and feel in

1:22:41

the air like you really, it makes

1:22:43

me want to be there with a partner. I don't feel like

1:22:45

that all the time. You know, like, I

1:22:47

mean, yeah, I miss him all the time. I want to be with him. But that's city

1:22:49

specifically. I'm like next time I come I want it to be

1:22:51

with somebody I'm like in love with. Yeah, I'm all set on friendships

1:22:54

there. Yeah, I'm good. But I'm happy I have a

1:22:56

new relationship

1:22:58

with it because I know that everybody loves it so much. And I've

1:23:00

really shit on it for a lot of years. So it

1:23:02

was nice for me to just develop new memories there. And that

1:23:05

was really fun. And then we went to Dublin,

1:23:08

where it was cold and raining a lot of the time. But

1:23:10

it doesn't matter. Because honestly, you

1:23:12

go to pubs and you drink there. That's the culture. It was so

1:23:15

fun. I'm sure there's other cultural activities. We also took hikes

1:23:17

and a great food. But it really was just like a

1:23:19

nice time going to pubs with you and drinking

1:23:22

listening to live music. And it's a

1:23:24

really small, compact place. So

1:23:26

you can bop around to a lot of different places.

1:23:28

So we like popped in and out of a bunch of pubs

1:23:30

every day. It just was really so fun. The

1:23:32

people are so nice and

1:23:34

fucking hot. Oh my god,

1:23:36

people are so nice. But we did that day trip to health,

1:23:39

which is like 30 minutes in a car, we just like took an

1:23:41

Uber and we did this amazing hike that is truly

1:23:43

like kind of what I pictured Ireland to be like

1:23:45

that gorgeous, you know, on the water. And

1:23:49

that part of it at least. But I loved it so

1:23:51

much after being in London and Paris because London and Paris

1:23:53

are so fucking big and takes so long to

1:23:55

get around. I mean, they're lost like New York and LA

1:23:57

like in terms of just like it's 30 minutes in

1:23:59

a car. here. It's just like Dublin everywhere

1:24:02

that we had on our list to go, we just walked with maybe

1:24:04

like the exception of like one or two places now it's because it was

1:24:06

raining. Like we really probably could have walked everywhere.

1:24:09

Oh, we would. And we had amazing like breakfast

1:24:11

and beer. We did the Guinness storehouse,

1:24:14

the bar at the top, like the highest

1:24:17

point in Dublin and just had a great time.

1:24:19

I would like recommend it to everybody. It's really just

1:24:21

you can make it a shorter trip, you know, two or three

1:24:23

days. You can really see a lot, cover a lot of ground,

1:24:26

do that day trip and call it a day. But

1:24:28

we loved it. We met some fans. And

1:24:30

maybe one day we'll do a show back there because we do have listeners

1:24:32

there, but we didn't squeeze it in this time, which I feel

1:24:34

bad. I wish we did because I bet it's like so fun to do

1:24:37

a show there. So fun. And I really just want to

1:24:39

say you guys send us so many recommendations

1:24:41

and so many long lists of where to go,

1:24:43

where to stay, where to eat. And I'm so honored

1:24:46

that you guys want us to like love where you're from

1:24:48

and the places that you've been. And obviously

1:24:50

Ashley plans all of our trips, but so much of your

1:24:52

recs come from our friends and you guys. So thank you for

1:24:55

doing that. It's really flattering. You want us to like love the

1:24:57

things that you've done. Oh, and I will

1:24:59

say I really do

1:24:59

feel like you bonded with Sparkle

1:25:02

Eyes more while we were gone. We really did.

1:25:05

We did fire off the group chat was really

1:25:07

funny on this trip. And he did

1:25:10

send flowers to we

1:25:12

got to the green room. First of all, he

1:25:14

said Ashley flowers in Ohio when you guys like had

1:25:17

first started dating. And it was

1:25:19

like very cute and sweet. The moment my dad

1:25:21

like watched you

1:25:21

like freak out about it. It was really cute. And we walked

1:25:23

into the green

1:25:25

room in London and it was gorgeous,

1:25:28

like unbelievable bouquet flowers.

1:25:30

And I'm thinking that my family

1:25:33

who is coming to my first ever UK

1:25:35

show has sent me a good luck bouquet

1:25:37

because I thought it was for Ashley. And then

1:25:40

they were like, Oh, no, no, it's for you. And I was like, Oh, of

1:25:42

course it's my family. It literally

1:25:44

a congratulatory bouquet. That

1:25:46

was the most confused. I was like, Oh, those

1:25:48

are prop those. And I go, wouldn't it be so

1:25:51

funny if sparklye sent me flowers? And

1:25:53

it literally says, dear Raina

1:25:56

blah, blah, blah, sparkle eyes. And I

1:25:58

couldn't believe it. I was like, this is a mistake.

1:26:00

They made a mistake. And you're like, your name is on it. It's not a

1:26:03

mistake. And you were supposed to get flowers.

1:26:05

I never got my flowers. So only

1:26:07

I

1:26:08

got flowers in front of my. So,

1:26:11

like, this

1:26:12

was a thorn, no flower pun

1:26:14

intended, of the tree. He was so upset. I

1:26:16

was supposed to get two dozen red roses,

1:26:18

which I've never had two dozen red roses my whole

1:26:20

life. No one's ever gotten me two dozen roses. Like,

1:26:23

I would have loved to get them. And this

1:26:25

place, wherever you ordered them from, like probably

1:26:27

some like flower company that sources from local

1:26:29

florists, whatever the fact. They send them out in two

1:26:31

different deliveries, which is so bizarre. They're going to the same

1:26:34

place. And mine never came. By

1:26:36

the time they were gonna try to get them to my hotel, we were already

1:26:38

leaving. Like, it was just, I never got them. And they refunded

1:26:40

him. But like, only you got your flowers.

1:26:43

You felt so bad. And it was

1:26:45

so hot down there. And I can tell,

1:26:47

like, you didn't know which thing to lean into. Like,

1:26:49

do I sympathize with him? Or do I sympathize

1:26:51

with us? Because it's very hot down here. You were like, which

1:26:54

prom do I dress right now? Yeah. He

1:26:56

was just super bummed. I was just bummed. I told you.

1:26:59

Listen, I'm a very high functioning person. I can figure it out. But

1:27:01

like, I don't know how to send flowers that

1:27:03

like make it to a green room. Like, they have

1:27:05

to like get to a box office and

1:27:08

come downstairs. I don't know how to do that. And those looked like $200 flowers.

1:27:11

Yeah, he really, he is the

1:27:13

most awful person ever. I

1:27:16

look forward to him doing that for me more often. He's,

1:27:20

I mean, as we record, he's coming here this weekend.

1:27:23

And he's the first time in LA for like a full, full

1:27:25

weekend. He's only been in LA twice, like one night,

1:27:27

both times. And so have a whole

1:27:29

full itinerary plan. I haven't seen him. It'll

1:27:32

be a month and it's just been so difficult.

1:27:34

I mean, we like. I'm trying to laugh at you doing

1:27:36

that. I just. Wow.

1:27:39

What are you, what are you

1:27:42

laughing at? I was thinking about your itinerary with

1:27:44

him and I was gonna say something and you go, it's been

1:27:46

really difficult. And I just burst out

1:27:48

laughing. I

1:27:52

mean, listen, like it's fine,

1:27:54

but I mean, we FaceTimed every night and when I

1:27:56

was gone, like it's just been, it sucks.

1:28:00

I mean, hot take. It's

1:28:02

the worst. It's like three weeks I started

1:28:04

to get a little crazy. I'm like this and we still have one

1:28:06

more week. Like what were you gonna laugh at? You

1:28:08

got listen you want to get your head straight because that's how you

1:28:10

accidentally move in with people

1:28:11

and then you break up.

1:28:16

You're like I miss them so much maybe I should let them live with

1:28:18

me. I was laughing because I'm gonna see you guys on Saturday.

1:28:21

You're gonna come over for a little bit. But then you

1:28:23

told me it's a Sunday I go to the Brentwood farmers market

1:28:25

every Sunday. It's my Sunday special plan. And

1:28:27

I was thinking like should I coordinate

1:28:30

with you guys or should I just like. Should I. I

1:28:36

was thinking like maybe I won't tell you at all

1:28:38

and I'm just gonna like blow in and out really quick. You

1:28:41

know I like to take that spot right in the front. There's

1:28:44

a parking spot. I do park in a red spot

1:28:46

but you've been doing it. The reddest spot. I park

1:28:48

in a red spot and I run in really quick as fast as

1:28:50

possible. So I was wondering if I should tell you I was gonna

1:28:52

be there and coordinate with you or coordinate to not

1:28:54

be there with you. I am dying laughing thinking

1:28:56

about running into you at the farmers market.

1:28:59

So like should

1:29:00

we coordinate times or. I feel

1:29:02

like you guys.

1:29:02

You go. Whenever I'm done working out

1:29:04

or I get up like 10 30. Okay we coordinate.

1:29:07

Like you don't have to see me there if you want to have your

1:29:09

own solo experience like to tall

1:29:11

people at the tall. Oh

1:29:13

yeah that's the tall farmers market we're gonna fit

1:29:16

right in. We'll be short there. Yeah not

1:29:18

him. You'll be a little midget. The guys there

1:29:20

are like six seven monsters. Yeah.

1:29:22

So we'll let you know next week

1:29:23

if I ended up going with them.

1:29:25

Like take your kid to the farmers market. So embarrassing.

1:29:29

Okay and last thing that

1:29:31

happened this was on the way back. We

1:29:33

had a delay on our layover

1:29:36

in JFK and we were sitting there next

1:29:38

to Angela Bassett. I was like actually I think

1:29:40

that's who that is. You were like there's no way she would just be sitting

1:29:42

here. Yeah Angela was on our flight.

1:29:44

She sat in front of me. But

1:29:46

we'd been in the lounge and we went back to the flight game

1:29:49

blades like we're at the gate so we were like sitting at

1:29:51

the Jamba Juice. Angela Bassett

1:29:53

sitting there.

1:29:53

She's like. I dropped the juice.

1:29:55

I dropped the juice. So when she's. Ashley

1:29:58

is going to be like.

1:29:59

And I could see over her shoulder.

1:30:02

I could see her phone and she was just like scrolling

1:30:05

through reels But she was on a fin stud.

1:30:07

Yeah, it was a fin stud, but you were like And

1:30:10

I was like and then we're just gonna what sit at the Jamba

1:30:12

juice They had the

1:30:14

Jamba juice the angel basset When

1:30:17

Angela Bassett was in the Skyles Club when

1:30:19

we went back to the Sky Club after we realized we were

1:30:21

even more delayed

1:30:22

She was in like a roped off area.

1:30:24

What's it called? What are those? anxious

1:30:27

anxious The

1:30:30

intention

1:30:33

Also you guys this

1:30:35

is a crazy story so we're at the gate every 30

1:30:38

minutes They told it to be another 30 minutes And

1:30:40

so they finally like get on the loudspeaker

1:30:43

and start talking about the mics not on and

1:30:45

so Everybody's like the mics not working on maybe

1:30:47

you get to tell them and out of nowhere Swooping

1:30:50

out of the crowd was one of the cast

1:30:52

members from SNL Oh and yang

1:30:54

to tell them your mics going. Yeah,

1:30:56

god damn it right when I say you say oh,

1:30:59

what's it? Oh, yeah, oh, it's Bowen.

1:31:01

That's why I meant also you didn't even recognize

1:31:03

him bitch No, I did not the mic is off

1:31:06

and I'm like the mics not hot Be

1:31:08

like his mic is off and then I'm like who's gonna tell

1:31:10

him and literally Bowen Yang comes up But

1:31:12

I was like there's a guy from SNL that's telling

1:31:14

him and you were like what I was like that guy's an S It

1:31:17

out he's I was on the hell or mike is off when

1:31:19

Ashley was like that's who that was Lost

1:31:21

my mind like I got on the flight Angela

1:31:24

Bassett is right there then Bowen Yang is right

1:31:26

there I swear I saw tanks, but I'm unclear tanks

1:31:28

if you're listening if anybody knows that she traveled I

1:31:30

think I saw her at the baggage claim that flight

1:31:32

from New York to LAX

1:31:35

that Delta flight and then Delta one. I've

1:31:37

never not seen someone who we saw a Bridget Everett once

1:31:40

There's always somebody I feel like I recognize. There's

1:31:43

that couple that was hooking up I You

1:31:47

guys there was a couple are the story I want

1:31:49

to tell that go off this couple was like

1:31:51

hooking up Right at the gate check-in

1:31:54

and like I thought they were saying goodbye to each other

1:31:56

because it was so intense for

1:31:59

so long staring at each

1:32:01

other. I'm talking like right before the plane boards

1:32:03

where there's 200 people standing there right

1:32:05

in the board. Right in the middle at the front.

1:32:07

Yes. Making out, holding

1:32:09

each other, staring at each other's eyes. Rubbing each other's

1:32:12

eyes. This goes on 30 minutes? It was unreal. And

1:32:14

then they got on the flight together. I

1:32:16

was like, they're saying goodbye, they must be.

1:32:19

I've had to say goodbye at an airport recently, I know

1:32:21

how it is, but also I'm off to the back. I'm

1:32:23

also not making out like that. But if they

1:32:26

were doing that in a more obscure place, I would

1:32:28

understand. I know how it is, you

1:32:30

know how it is. Anywhere besides that. They

1:32:33

were basically in front of the, like you said,

1:32:35

the counter, just going at it.

1:32:37

It was unreal. What kind of non-self-control

1:32:39

do you have? And then they got on the flight together.

1:32:42

Crazy. I couldn't even believe it. You couldn't have

1:32:44

figured each other anywhere else. You needed an audience, unreal.

1:32:46

But anyway, what I was saying, while

1:32:48

we were at John Majoose with Angela Bassett,

1:32:51

Reina is like, I could use a smoothie. And

1:32:54

so she goes up and...

1:32:56

I don't see what she'd say. I'm sitting there, whatever,

1:32:58

and I hear them go, Ashley,

1:32:59

order

1:33:00

for Ashley.

1:33:02

And I was like, did I order something?

1:33:04

If I'm having a stroke, I literally thought I ordered something.

1:33:07

It was you.

1:33:12

You have

1:33:13

been using my name.

1:33:15

You've been impersonating

1:33:17

me at Fast Casual. Do

1:33:21

it, it's so much. This is so much crazy.

1:33:29

You have to explain. This

1:33:34

is my secret. I've

1:33:37

kept it from you for years.

1:33:41

I didn't think you'd

1:33:44

ever find out.

1:33:45

I'm like, Angela, are you hearing me? I

1:33:49

just, let's say, Reina's a hard name to pronounce.

1:33:51

It makes me feel weird and nervous

1:33:53

if people aren't even gonna say it when they're yelling it across

1:33:56

the room. So I'm like, what is the easiest

1:33:58

name on Earth to say?

1:33:59

Ashley. Oh my god. No one's gonna misinterpret

1:34:02

what that name is or how to spell it. I get

1:34:04

Ryan and Rania and Renee. Like

1:34:07

people just like it's so demoralizing.

1:34:10

And so for years, I've been saying Ashley.

1:34:15

Whether you're with me or not. Do

1:34:18

you think? I've been hearing it for the first

1:34:20

time. I mean the odds that somebody

1:34:22

who's like a fan of the show has like rung me

1:34:24

up and I've been like you could put it under

1:34:27

Ashley. Yeah they're like Rania wants

1:34:28

to be Ashley so bad.

1:34:32

Rania also like I want

1:34:34

to go back and watch it in slow-mo because I hear

1:34:36

my name and I'm like oh that's weird. And then

1:34:38

as you move towards the

1:34:41

counter to

1:34:41

get the smoothie I was like.

1:34:51

You were never supposed

1:34:53

to hear that. You know what you should have

1:34:55

done. What? Angela.

1:34:57

Because at that point we were unsure if

1:35:00

it was Angela. You should have said Angela Bassett.

1:35:04

Bassett or Greenberg? Bassett?

1:35:07

Bassett? Oh my gosh.

1:35:09

So funny the way you laughed at this the whole way down

1:35:11

the Jeopardy. I couldn't believe what I

1:35:14

was seeing. When you grabbed that smoothie

1:35:16

I was like what? I've done this for years.

1:35:19

Oh my god. This is like when I found

1:35:21

out you

1:35:21

had Napster or Rhapsody.

1:35:25

I know I do have a secret life. Okay

1:35:28

so we are talking about the app today.

1:35:30

Rania got a wild hair and just

1:35:33

got on Hinge. Well

1:35:37

I just happened. So I want to say up top

1:35:39

if you've been following along with the podcast I have been talking about going

1:35:42

on dates with somebody and we are cool but that's not

1:35:44

my boyfriend. So yeah I am well within

1:35:46

my right so is he to go on a dating app. And I

1:35:48

thought as a fun little exercise while we were away.

1:35:50

I mean we were away for 10 or 11

1:35:52

nights together and I thought it would

1:35:54

be really fun and Dublin because you and I

1:35:56

were just solo to pick a day or two

1:35:58

and like update my.

1:35:59

dating apps and the photos,

1:36:02

the prompts, everything, and start messaging people.

1:36:04

And I think that, I get really bogged

1:36:06

down at the thought of messaging people on dating apps

1:36:08

sometimes and having to respond.

1:36:11

It feels like such a job, but when you have

1:36:13

a drink with a friend and do it, it becomes

1:36:15

this really fun, silly, light,

1:36:18

easy thing. And your friends can also,

1:36:20

first of all, not a hot take, but look at your profile

1:36:22

and be like, that's a little too much, or that's a little

1:36:25

too sexual, or too neggy or

1:36:27

anything. I just like to have somebody else look at it and

1:36:29

say, this is what I see in this. And then

1:36:31

it's just fun to do together, to just

1:36:33

look at other people's profiles, make fun of them, listen to the

1:36:35

voice prompts, and message people, take a funny things to

1:36:37

do. So it's just a funny activity with your

1:36:39

girlfriend. It is so funny, yes. And sometimes it's

1:36:42

better to have the extra set of eyes. You had a

1:36:44

full, mere selfie bikini

1:36:46

pic. I was like, no. I just was like, let's

1:36:49

do a bathing suit pic, but let's pick

1:36:51

another one that's not so full frontal.

1:36:54

I hate to use the word thirsty, but I think

1:36:56

it's sending a certain message. And

1:36:58

I say that as like, I don't really wanna see a guy

1:37:00

do that. You know what I mean? When it's just like too much

1:37:03

body, or like naked body.

1:37:05

Well, I think there's like such a science to it. Logan

1:37:07

Urie, who was on the show, she says like

1:37:10

not too many pictures of yourself drinking. Try

1:37:12

to limit the amount of alcohol photos,

1:37:14

photos with friends, maybe you wanna do one,

1:37:16

but I mean, whatever. It's light, it's fun, it's easy.

1:37:19

There is a bit of a science to it. I definitely do get

1:37:21

a certain vibe about people

1:37:23

via their photos, of course. So we switched

1:37:25

it up to a different bikini photo. Yeah, it was just

1:37:28

like farther away, a little more artsy.

1:37:30

Like it was in Cabo, so it was like something to comment

1:37:32

on, like where you were traveling at the time,

1:37:34

things like that. So you messaged a

1:37:36

bunch of people, and that's also a fun thing to do.

1:37:39

Like you just get that extra little

1:37:41

bit of encouragement from your friend, as opposed to like sitting

1:37:43

alone in your home being like, should I message, should I not? Should

1:37:45

I speak first? All this stuff, like who cares? So

1:37:48

that was fun. And yeah, you're right.

1:37:51

It is such a fun thing to do. Have a little glass

1:37:53

of water with a friend

1:37:53

and you know, bounce things off of that. Yeah,

1:37:55

I loved it. I think it's just fun to like laugh

1:37:58

at people's profiles or be like that guy's. hot,

1:38:00

just have fun. And also, I don't

1:38:02

like to go grocery shopping when I'm hungry. So sometimes

1:38:06

I can feel like beyond these apps is really

1:38:08

overwhelming. But I've been getting

1:38:11

digged down recently. So I'm not as hungry and

1:38:13

I can be a little more selective. Okay, which is

1:38:15

nice. I love that. But I do like when you get in there,

1:38:17

you can cast such a wide net, say yes on

1:38:19

a lot of people and then narrow it down

1:38:22

for who you're gonna like message with back and forth.

1:38:24

And one thing I was saying to you is if you

1:38:27

put yourself out there and take the

1:38:29

leap to message someone like to say

1:38:31

a thing like, you know, unhinged to respond

1:38:33

to one of their prompts, and they don't get back to you right away.

1:38:36

I just want you all to keep in mind that so many people

1:38:38

are not on these apps every day, they don't have their

1:38:40

push notifications set up. Like, I feel like we

1:38:42

saw someone this feels very LA.

1:38:44

Someone was like, I only checked this once a week.

1:38:47

You know, I'm protecting my energy, you know, but that

1:38:49

could be someone's story. Like someone could be so sporadic

1:38:51

with it. Like, don't get upset or feel rejected

1:38:53

if you've sent a bunch of messages and haven't gotten responses. I

1:38:56

mean, yeah, those people could have seen it, they could leave you on read.

1:38:58

But some of it is just like, people are

1:39:00

busy, it might not be their top priority

1:39:02

to be like, in hinge, reading messages

1:39:04

responding. So

1:39:06

I just think finding dates on this can be like a full time

1:39:08

job. You know, like my friends that are like, I

1:39:10

had a girlfriend to me the other day, she's in a relationship now, but she

1:39:13

was like, right now I went on like 100 birthdays.

1:39:15

Yeah. And I like when I first moved here, but that is a full

1:39:18

time job doing that, you know, and you have to like, really

1:39:20

swipe out a lot of people and really message a lot of people.

1:39:23

And it's not just like you get in there and it's just

1:39:25

like, embarrassment of riches.

1:39:28

Yeah, yeah, I think that's good to keep in mind too.

1:39:30

I just feel I feel like I'm in a place

1:39:32

to do it. Like I said, like I'm not

1:39:34

starving for attention. I feel like I'm

1:39:36

in a place where I can just like, be a little

1:39:38

more picky. But I've been dating

1:39:40

more recently. And I've been like with more

1:39:43

guys recently. And I feel like it's

1:39:46

just lighter. I'm not like desperate for it. But

1:39:48

I'm just like, I'm in the game. I'm in the

1:39:50

mood. I'm like vibing with dating right now.

1:39:52

And so it makes me want to do it more. Yeah,

1:39:55

but it's not like, these aren't desperate

1:39:57

times. So I'm not gonna say yes to everybody. But like,

1:40:00

hit my stride, I can do this and it feels light

1:40:02

and easy. I think some people are in these apps

1:40:04

and they're just like, I hate doing this, then don't do it. Then

1:40:07

don't do it if you're in a place in your life where you don't want to do it, but I'm

1:40:09

in a place where I'm like, I could get in there and do

1:40:11

some of this. And because I've been dating

1:40:13

a little bit more, it feels like less of a rejection

1:40:16

when somebody doesn't respond to you, because you're like, other

1:40:18

people are responding to me. Yeah. I

1:40:20

mean, if you're sitting there on an app

1:40:23

and liking people and

1:40:25

feeling so fatigued and like, I hate this,

1:40:28

that is the energy that's coming through. I know that someone can't

1:40:30

read your mind behind your phone screen, but

1:40:33

that's the energy that's surrounding you. So it is

1:40:36

more beneficial to be in a better head space around

1:40:38

it. And we had this girlfriend who, she

1:40:41

went on this trip to Europe and

1:40:43

she just was

1:40:45

kind of feeling herself on the trip and she met this guy

1:40:47

who was just basically a total degenerate,

1:40:49

but he was just totally obsessed with her, like

1:40:51

love bombing her.

1:40:52

She was like, this is not my guy, but just

1:40:55

a crazy person, a crazy love bomber,

1:40:57

wild party guy. And she knew

1:41:00

from moment one that that was not somebody

1:41:02

that was any sort of real match, but his level

1:41:04

of just being so obsessed with her. And honestly, just

1:41:06

like a love bombing the shit out of her and being like, I've

1:41:08

been loving you since the first moment I met you, she

1:41:10

could probably tell the story a lot better. But it just

1:41:12

kind of gave her a confidence boost. And she

1:41:15

said the funniest thing on our group chat, she was like, I've

1:41:18

opened a portal. It unlocks

1:41:20

something in her that maybe she needed that sort

1:41:22

of confidence

1:41:22

boost at the time, whatever it was. Maybe she'd been

1:41:24

in a little bit of a rut and she

1:41:26

just got in the apps with an energy of

1:41:29

like, I'm so hot, this guy can't get enough of me. I'm gonna be on

1:41:31

these apps and see what's out there. And

1:41:34

she met this guy and now

1:41:36

they're dating and we met him and

1:41:39

we are obsessed with him. They

1:41:41

have been spending every weekend

1:41:43

together. And I mean, who knows what will happen, but

1:41:45

it seems like a great fit for her. And again, we met

1:41:48

him and he is super into her,

1:41:50

it seems. And they just are really having

1:41:52

a nice, easy, healthy start of

1:41:55

a relationship. And she credits

1:41:58

that like confidence boost. from this crazy

1:42:01

person on this crazy trip with kind of making

1:42:03

her be more motivated. And I think

1:42:05

she FaceTimed with this guy that she met on Hinge

1:42:08

pretty early on. And I don't know if I

1:42:10

said they met on Hinge, but it was on Hinge and now

1:42:12

they're fully dating and she was like, in

1:42:14

that right head space. That's what I was

1:42:16

getting at. I feel confident. I feel like I've

1:42:18

got it going on. It's lighter, it's easier

1:42:21

for me. I'm not in a negative head space

1:42:23

about dating. I think that's what a lot of people get on

1:42:25

dating apps is when you're just like, there's nothing

1:42:27

out there. I can't find anybody. I don't

1:42:29

know how to get these, maybe nag people

1:42:32

a little bit more. I just think if you go in with a confident,

1:42:34

light, easy attitude, that's always

1:42:37

when you fish the best. And

1:42:39

we asked recently on Instagram, what topics do you

1:42:41

wanna see us

1:42:42

cover? And a lot of people said

1:42:44

how to get back out there after a really tough breakup.

1:42:47

And I wanted to address this in terms

1:42:49

of dating apps because it seemed like a

1:42:51

question a lot of people had. And I think

1:42:54

when it comes to wanting to get back

1:42:56

out there, attempting to fire up the app again,

1:42:58

or for the first time after, like a really painful breakup,

1:43:01

or a long-term relationship that ended badly, or just

1:43:03

ended for whatever reason, I think you

1:43:05

have to really look at it as you're

1:43:08

not on the search to find your next partner right

1:43:10

away. This is gonna be a rebound for you. And

1:43:12

I think you just need to look at it as a time

1:43:15

to build your confidence back up, get back on

1:43:17

the horse, and go out with

1:43:19

a nice person, you know? Or

1:43:21

just get laid, whatever it is. I really think that

1:43:24

you should take the pressure off getting

1:43:26

back out there after that relationship and really

1:43:28

not think like I am searching

1:43:30

for my next long-term relationship. Like go

1:43:33

out with the person that seems the nicest, the

1:43:35

kindest, someone that's pursuing you. Like

1:43:37

the point is just to restore your

1:43:39

faith in dating in the first

1:43:42

place. Let someone pursue you, be

1:43:44

obsessed with you, even if it's just someone that you aren't

1:43:46

attracted to. I just think to get over

1:43:48

that hump, you just want a decent person.

1:43:51

Or on the flip side, you just need someone to dick you

1:43:53

down if your relationship is lacking. I

1:43:55

think of almost like find what you may have been missing in that

1:43:58

relationship and think about what you need. Like

1:44:00

if you're feeling like I got dumped,

1:44:03

I'm heartbroken, I've lost so much confidence,

1:44:05

like find someone that maybe you don't think

1:44:07

they're the most attractive, sexiest person in the

1:44:09

world but is being really kind and nice to you and

1:44:11

pursuing you and wanting to take you out and just enjoy

1:44:13

that and lean into it. Or if you were in a relationship

1:44:16

that you really didn't get a lot of sex, you weren't sexually fulfilled,

1:44:18

find some disgusting degenerate on

1:44:20

one of these apps to dick you down. Think you're

1:44:22

asking Tokyo. What's in that? Yeah, I

1:44:24

just think that's when you really need

1:44:26

to not put pressure on it. I know it's hard to

1:44:28

come out of a relationship and you think you want to be in one

1:44:30

again, maybe or maybe not, but I think that that's

1:44:33

the time to just completely take the pressure off

1:44:35

and be like, this is not my next partner. Like

1:44:37

we had a friend that went through this really terrible breakup,

1:44:41

really rough for a lot of different reasons. And

1:44:43

it took so long for her to even want to go on a date. But the

1:44:45

first person she went on a date with was somebody that I

1:44:47

think she had matched with them on a day nap years prior

1:44:50

and then they hit her back up. I think they saw she was

1:44:52

single or they were in town or whatever. And she

1:44:54

just was like, he's just a nice guy. Like I just knew

1:44:56

that that's what I needed to like go

1:44:59

on a date.

1:44:59

Like I knew I wasn't going to sleep with him. I knew I probably wasn't

1:45:01

going to feel him like that, but I guess you never know. But

1:45:03

it's just like a nice person to like,

1:45:06

it makes you feel good about yourself for the night. You

1:45:08

know? Yeah, it's just not that heavy. And yeah, I think it can feel

1:45:10

really heavy because you put all these photos up and all this

1:45:12

information about yourself and you're like, I just want somebody

1:45:15

to like me, but it's just, it's light. It's fun.

1:45:17

It's easy. Just go out there and get either dick down

1:45:19

or get a little confidence in yourself. Yeah.

1:45:22

And we want to talk about getting off the

1:45:24

opps. Okay. I've been getting

1:45:26

off the opps for years. Well,

1:45:29

I just think it's a very funny thing. Like circle

1:45:31

of life, like you're getting on, I'm getting

1:45:33

off. It's like the merry-go-round of dating apps.

1:45:36

You know, someone's always getting off, someone's always getting on.

1:45:39

And I mean, you really so much more than me, if you

1:45:41

guys are newer here, like I don't really complain

1:45:43

about being single because I don't do anything to not be single.

1:45:45

I'm not like going on dating apps. And you for the last

1:45:47

couple of years have been very intentional. I want to find

1:45:49

a partner, want to find something that makes sense for me.

1:45:51

And you have like really taken

1:45:53

the steps more so than me to

1:45:55

like meet more people outside of just

1:45:58

our immediate circle. Yeah. And you've really

1:46:00

been on dating apps and going

1:46:02

out with more guys and you met a matchmaker. And

1:46:05

so you're much more in the culture and you've

1:46:07

really worked it and done all the things.

1:46:09

I ended up with someone that I did not meet on an app. But

1:46:12

I think to your point, it can just be a way to

1:46:15

jumpstart your confidence. Yeah, the

1:46:17

dream is to meet somebody in the wild. The dream

1:46:19

is to not meet somebody on an app. But maybe

1:46:21

you're just like, I have not done this in so long,

1:46:24

then that's the first step. Yeah, for

1:46:26

sure. Yeah. I'm in

1:46:28

this relationship, the only app that

1:46:31

I've really been using, I mean,

1:46:33

I used Hinge for so many years and then I was

1:46:35

on Raya. And

1:46:37

when I got in this relationship, I just let that

1:46:40

run out. I was like, I got to delete this on

1:46:42

my phone. You pay for it. I just let the thing

1:46:44

run out or whatever. Maybe I was sort of active

1:46:46

on it for a few months crossing

1:46:48

over of being in this relationship. But yeah, I mean, and again,

1:46:51

Hinge, you can always pause it, which is a great feature. I

1:46:53

think that we talked about this before,

1:46:56

just because you take an app off your phone does nothing.

1:46:58

You really need to go into the app and figure out

1:47:00

what your profile is doing out there in the world.

1:47:03

And I can't speak for all the apps, but Hinge, you can pause

1:47:06

it, which is just like your profile is being

1:47:08

shown to anybody and you can hit unpause at any

1:47:10

time. So that's a nice thing. So I

1:47:12

just had this conversation recently with Sparkle Eyes

1:47:15

and I had never even

1:47:17

thought of the dating app thing. I knew we

1:47:19

were super secure and he was really into me and I

1:47:21

knew it wasn't on the apps. I knew that in my

1:47:23

heart to be true. I didn't need a conversation. We

1:47:25

talked about not dating other people really early

1:47:28

on and so whatever, like the apps were not on my mind.

1:47:31

But so something that kind of prompted

1:47:33

the discussion the first place was someone

1:47:35

messaged and they said that

1:47:38

he was on Hinge and he had liked

1:47:40

her friend. Basically just, hey,

1:47:43

heads up, it looks like Ashley's boyfriend is

1:47:46

on Hinge. And I mean,

1:47:48

it was like, no, he's not. But

1:47:50

you know, like, I think it's still best

1:47:53

to like still know, you know what I mean?

1:47:55

You don't want to be that naive girl, God

1:47:57

forbid, that's like, no, he's not. But I still knew. And 99.9%

1:48:00

of me can be 100% sure that somebody isn't. And

1:48:05

I'd still be like, all right, well then prove it. Yeah,

1:48:08

yeah, and so I was like, well, I may as well get

1:48:10

the receipts. So basically it wasn't

1:48:12

him. It was somebody that has his same name spelled

1:48:15

differently and it wasn't him at all, you know, and that's

1:48:17

just what it was. But my heart dropped out for a second.

1:48:19

I can't deny that. I mean, you're with somebody that you're

1:48:22

in this committed relationship with and someone's like, he liked

1:48:24

me on a hinge. Like you immediately, it feels

1:48:26

some type of way. And, you know, I was

1:48:29

just like, I told him

1:48:29

about it. Obviously I was laughing about it. And then we had a conversation

1:48:32

about it. And, you know, he was like, after

1:48:34

that first weekend in New York, I paused

1:48:37

all these apps or deleted them. And I knew I was

1:48:39

gonna be with you. And he was like, now

1:48:41

I just wanna make sure I'm completely off of them and like

1:48:43

delete my accounts for good. And

1:48:45

that was just how that conversation kind of

1:48:47

went. And

1:48:48

he, I go, wait, before you delete

1:48:50

your hinge, I wanna see it. Like I was like,

1:48:53

I really wanna see it. Yeah, I was like, I wanna see it to

1:48:55

know if I would have liked you on hinge. And

1:48:58

that's something that I wanted to address like just

1:49:00

talk about with our listeners. Like, would

1:49:02

you like your current partner if you saw them on hinge? Like,

1:49:05

I think it's a funny thing. I love this. Would

1:49:07

you have been attracted to their pictures, their prompts? And

1:49:09

I don't know. Yeah, it's

1:49:11

honestly, it's a no for me most of the time. Like

1:49:14

I try to keep an open mind because like a

1:49:16

lot of people in LA specifically,

1:49:18

all the prompts are about like wellness

1:49:21

and having an open heart and an open mind

1:49:23

and like seeking whatever the fuck.

1:49:25

And I'm just like, okay, just go

1:49:28

out with these people. Cause even people that write that,

1:49:30

like

1:49:30

I have a friend that I've made here and he will

1:49:33

tell you he's into all that stuff, but he's a totally

1:49:35

normal day-to-day person that I could totally

1:49:37

get along with, that

1:49:38

I'm extremely attracted to. Like

1:49:41

just cause they write

1:49:41

a bunch of stuff that maybe gives you an egg. No one's good at

1:49:43

this. I know, like I wanna

1:49:46

pick. I read a profile. Yes, like

1:49:48

I've always kind of been like, I can tell if someone's

1:49:50

like funny or sarcastic, but

1:49:52

not really. I can't. Here's a couple

1:49:55

points. Yes, there's a guy that I went out with a couple times in LA.

1:49:57

I knew him from the walk.

1:49:59

I never saw his dating that profile. I imagine

1:50:02

it's corny as hell. Uh-huh. That guy is

1:50:04

so hot. He's so cool He's so wonderful.

1:50:06

I bet if I would see his hinge prompts, I'd be

1:50:08

like like I bet they have so many Smiley's

1:50:11

body Yeah, he

1:50:13

is sexy and like he's dateable

1:50:16

but the sparkle eyes first of all his

1:50:18

lead picture He's like wearing this chain which you

1:50:20

know, it's the whole thing chain gate But so I

1:50:22

like jokingly I was like, I don't know the chain big

1:50:25

like I love that you asked to see this So

1:50:27

I'll show to you too, but then his prompts even a

1:50:30

I think he's the most attractive person in the world Like of

1:50:32

course now, you know and like in real life

1:50:34

but I feel like his lead picture is not really

1:50:36

how I view him and He

1:50:39

is really funny and he is really sarcastic But

1:50:42

he can come across a little negi and I felt

1:50:44

some of prompts kind of translated that like

1:50:47

I would have been like I don't I think this guy's could just

1:50:49

kind of kind of be a dick And so I

1:50:51

think that if he liked me I would have liked

1:50:53

back and then see how he opened the

1:50:55

conversation But I don't think I would have outright

1:50:58

liked him been like so into him I mean

1:51:01

we've talked about this he's gonna hear this and it's not like it's new

1:51:03

information to him But I just thought that was the funniest game

1:51:05

to play like if you're with somebody and you could still

1:51:07

see their dating app Like would you like them? I just

1:51:09

feel like dating profiles are a they're just they have

1:51:12

to be a like I try to Say

1:51:14

the least amount of stuff in my three prompts

1:51:16

that like would spark a conversation

1:51:19

and be funny and cute and light But like people

1:51:21

write so much and I think it's so awful

1:51:23

But I just try to like look at photos now,

1:51:26

and I'm like I think you're hot I'll swipe on

1:51:28

you, and if the conversation is great then

1:51:30

great I try not to look at the prompts that

1:51:32

much so what I like to look at is Somebody

1:51:35

writes that they're moderate. They're probably not for me or conservatives

1:51:37

I do like to look at that if so many marks that

1:51:39

they want of children I'm not gonna probably

1:51:41

bother with them other than that I'm looking

1:51:44

for a couple lifestyle things that probably wouldn't

1:51:46

match with me and otherwise I don't know I just

1:51:48

don't put that much stock into the prompt I

1:51:50

know I like go back and forth because I'm like their friend

1:51:52

could have told them this funny thing to write or

1:51:54

like This hilarious sarcastic funny

1:51:56

thing to write that doesn't match their personality.

1:51:59

You know then they're almost catfishing you with their personality.

1:52:02

So I think you can tell a lot by the photos though.

1:52:04

I think like where someone's been, like the expressions they're

1:52:06

making, if they're really like someone that takes themselves

1:52:08

too seriously. And then the voice notes are great too. Like we

1:52:11

did listen to one voice note that I was like, no, that's

1:52:14

so, someone that's just takes themselves so

1:52:16

seriously. Too many professional photos.

1:52:18

Yeah. I don't want it. So anyway,

1:52:20

I had this conversation that I already

1:52:23

knew where we stood and everything, but people

1:52:25

ask about that too. Like I want to know if my partner

1:52:27

is off the apps. And I think that this is something where

1:52:30

you always lead with curiosity and

1:52:33

not accusation. And you

1:52:35

can just ask. I mean, I understand

1:52:37

the feeling of dating someone,

1:52:40

thinking that you're monogamous,

1:52:42

committed, whatever. And then they're out there

1:52:45

and your friends are seeing them. You know what I mean? Like

1:52:47

I understand that fear. And again,

1:52:49

a lot of people don't know that you do have to delete

1:52:51

your account or pause it or whatever to not be

1:52:53

shown. But I think this weighs on a lot of

1:52:55

people. Like is my partner still on the

1:52:58

app? And I think that this

1:53:00

is kind of the same as like the what are we conversation.

1:53:02

You know, you just never want to hit somebody

1:53:05

in like that accusatory, like insecure

1:53:07

way. I think you can always lead with sharing

1:53:09

what's going on with you and how you're feeling. But

1:53:12

it can be a little tricky because that conversation

1:53:15

also is like kind of like

1:53:17

the what are we? Absolutely.

1:53:19

And I think that that can be wrapped up in the what are we conversation.

1:53:22

Yeah. Yeah. I mean, I don't think

1:53:24

there's any harm. If you feel like you're

1:53:26

in a good place with somebody, you know, if you're really

1:53:28

still unsure how someone feels about you, I don't

1:53:31

love that for you. You know, like that's my one thing. You

1:53:33

should feel like someone's sure. But if

1:53:35

you feel like you're in that healthy, good space,

1:53:37

they're sure about you, they're showing up for you. You

1:53:39

know, you're gonna hear from them. You're not feeling that sort of anxiety

1:53:42

and you are feeling a sense of security,

1:53:44

then you can just ask like, hey, are

1:53:46

you still like on day naps? I don't know. I

1:53:49

just,

1:53:49

you can be light and just again, just be

1:53:51

curious. I've only ever had to ask

1:53:53

if I was like unsure about the relationship. I'm

1:53:55

unsure and then the answer is yes. They're definitely still on

1:53:57

it. Like when this happened the other day.

1:53:59

got that message about sparkly eyes being

1:54:02

on hand. I told one of their friend and she goes, I

1:54:04

wouldn't tell her this is not true. This is made

1:54:06

up. That was not him. You're just gonna ruin

1:54:08

her day. Like she was so sure that it

1:54:11

was made up. Yeah. You know what I mean?

1:54:13

Because like, I think that when you know that

1:54:15

a relationship is like solid and intentional,

1:54:18

it would be so insane and ludicrous for

1:54:20

somebody to be on a date. Yeah, I

1:54:23

knew it. But I was like,

1:54:25

I don't know. I also share so much

1:54:27

with him. And so it was just like, I kind of wanted

1:54:29

to tell him that happened in the first place

1:54:31

because it did like throw me for a second.

1:54:33

He didn't even flinch. He was like, what? Well,

1:54:36

through me for a second. And I started to like, got really upset.

1:54:38

And then I called you and I was like, I don't

1:54:40

think this is true. No part of me ever thought it was true either.

1:54:43

Neither one of us ever thought it was true. Yeah. Because

1:54:45

that would be insane. Yeah. Stupid.

1:54:47

Are you? He was also like,

1:54:50

I'd have to be insane. I mean,

1:54:52

to just like publicly cheat like that

1:54:54

is crazy. No, I mean, I hate

1:54:56

even like having the conversation about it because it's like,

1:54:59

obviously, but we wanted to have like the larger conversation

1:55:01

about having these conversations. I mean, yeah,

1:55:03

it's obviously, but again, if somebody said

1:55:05

to me, I saw your

1:55:06

partner on a dating app, I'd be like, absolutely.

1:55:09

I need to see proof.

1:55:09

Even if it's most, you know, I'm saying like,

1:55:12

there's nothing crazy about you being like, okay, this

1:55:14

tiny little glimmer of me wants to see you always

1:55:16

got to know. Well, it was that he liked

1:55:18

that person. You know what I mean? Like, those are

1:55:20

two different things, like active

1:55:23

and just being on it. He was neither. It

1:55:25

was a different person. But I use this example

1:55:28

really early on, but I moved to New York

1:55:30

and I was on the apps and I saw a good guy

1:55:32

friend of ours and I knew he was with

1:55:34

his girlfriend, now wife, and was super

1:55:36

happy. And I told him and he like freaked

1:55:39

out. He was like,

1:55:40

women are seeing me on this and I'm with

1:55:42

my girlfriend. Like he was so upset. Like, you

1:55:44

know, again, we can't stress this enough. A lot of people just

1:55:46

don't know that your profile is still out

1:55:48

there in the world. And you know,

1:55:50

you got to take care of that shit. Right. So

1:55:52

you got to delete your profile. Yeah. Yeah. Men

1:55:55

don't know. Women all

1:55:57

know. I think it can be really intimidating.

1:56:00

to have that conversation with somebody. Like,

1:56:02

of course, the what are we conversation? Are

1:56:05

you still doing this? Are you still actively trying to sleep

1:56:07

with other people? Although there's like levels to it. I

1:56:09

feel like the height of like, we are

1:56:11

not a couple is you are going on dating apps, pursuing

1:56:14

new people. It's not like you went to a bar and you met

1:56:16

a new person. And like, if we're sort of in that

1:56:18

gray area and you go out to a bar

1:56:20

and you meet somebody, you hook up with them, you go out to the sign,

1:56:22

but like you're actively pursuing

1:56:24

other strangers, then

1:56:26

you probably don't wanna be with me in a serious

1:56:29

capacity right now. Right, yes. If you

1:56:31

are with somebody that you're into, you typically

1:56:34

take a break. Yeah, not being on the app

1:56:36

anymore doesn't necessarily mean you're my boyfriend now,

1:56:38

but it does mean that you've like hit the pause button

1:56:40

for a second, you've pulled into the parking spot and

1:56:42

you're gonna see what this is about for a second. I'm not asking

1:56:45

you to like be my full-term, long-term boyfriend,

1:56:47

full-term boyfriend. I was like, it's a pregnancy. But

1:56:50

I would like you to stop scouring for

1:56:53

pussy on the internet with strangers

1:56:54

for a little bit. And

1:56:57

especially, you know, something like Raya, like am

1:57:00

I ready to delete it? I don't know, it took me a hard

1:57:02

time to get on it. Yeah, you can't, you know, you gotta keep

1:57:04

that for ever. Like giving up your Soho House membership.

1:57:05

They get me every year.

1:57:08

I'm getting sparkly, I'm not on Raya. I'm

1:57:10

really not.

1:57:10

I let it

1:57:12

run out. But I

1:57:14

had also wanted to talk about the

1:57:17

matchmaker. I brought this up, but I never really like

1:57:19

gave the full rest of the story and I really

1:57:21

went right in to get on this and I want her, again,

1:57:24

I was using this service called Talkify and I really

1:57:26

liked my matchmaker. I would love for you to work with

1:57:28

her. I think she really got me. I think she really

1:57:30

understood me and what I was looking for and I

1:57:32

never spoke about this. I spoke about the first date I

1:57:34

went on. I did go on a second date and

1:57:37

this was before sparkly eyes had

1:57:39

the conversation. We were dating, but we hadn't

1:57:41

had that conversation and I knew

1:57:43

I wanted to be with him, but I also was

1:57:45

like, this woman has been looking for a second

1:57:47

date for me for a month and she's been putting

1:57:50

in hours and like, why not? I

1:57:52

think it almost even solidified how I felt

1:57:53

about sparkly eyes even more, you know?

1:57:55

And then we ended up having that conversation,

1:57:58

but I had like three matches with her.

1:57:59

and I did go on a second date and she

1:58:02

nailed it again. I mean, it was like someone

1:58:04

that I vibed with and had

1:58:07

I been single would have gone out with again.

1:58:09

So, you know, we're talking mostly about

1:58:12

apps today, but I never really buttoned that conversation

1:58:14

up. And I told her, like, I was

1:58:18

like, I liked him, but I'm kind of seeing

1:58:20

this other guy. We're not

1:58:22

exclusive, but I think

1:58:25

we are gonna be. I don't really, I don't know. And

1:58:27

she was just like, well, you know, if you're not exclusive, you can like

1:58:29

still see other people. And I

1:58:31

just kind of like left her on red for a little

1:58:33

bit and then came back to her

1:58:36

when we did have the conversation and was like, yeah, I'm

1:58:38

gonna have to pause this

1:58:39

whole thing and now you can work with her now.

1:58:42

But yeah, I just wanted to say that again, that that

1:58:44

again, like I had another really good

1:58:47

date, but I do think it almost made

1:58:49

me realize even more like what I wanted and who I wanted

1:58:51

to be with. Yeah, I think that it's important to find what

1:58:53

you don't want to be with, you know? Like, I

1:58:56

think we'll talk about this in another episode, but

1:58:58

like you and I have talked a lot about maybe what you've said

1:59:00

that you wanted and what I've said I've wanted in a partner

1:59:03

and you find somebody that's different

1:59:05

and there's trade-offs to everything, but maybe

1:59:07

what I have in my head of what I want is not

1:59:09

when something else is in front of me, like I realize

1:59:11

that's what I want. So sometimes

1:59:14

it's important for me to also go out with

1:59:16

people that are the opposite of that. Yeah, sometimes

1:59:18

it is just important to go out with something. Maybe

1:59:20

you're like, I want this finance guy with

1:59:23

all this money, who's just like the

1:59:25

biggest best CEO in his company and you go out

1:59:27

with that person and you're like, huh,

1:59:29

being on a date with this person, like I'm not that emotionally

1:59:32

connected to this person because their job is the number

1:59:34

one thing in their life and it's all they talk about, it's all

1:59:36

they care about and okay, maybe I thought I wanted

1:59:39

that, but it's not for me.

1:59:41

Yeah, I mean, this is something that

1:59:43

I have learned, continue to learn

1:59:45

and we do want to tackle on a full episode

1:59:48

because I think it's like really important to discuss and this, it's

1:59:50

not about, I don't know, like

1:59:52

not knowing what you want. Like I knew what I wanted,

1:59:54

but I was still kind of wrong. Because

1:59:58

that sense makes no sense at all. You

2:00:00

know what I mean? Like, I don't know. It's something to keep

2:00:02

in mind on dating apps too. The finance

2:00:04

guy is a perfect example. You know, you're in

2:00:07

New York, you think you want this very specific type

2:00:09

of guy with a specific type of job. Like,

2:00:11

do you know the personality of most of

2:00:13

those guys? Have you stopped to consider?

2:00:17

You know what I mean? Like, you really have to think about the

2:00:19

type of person you want instead

2:00:22

of some of the other things on paper. Who is

2:00:24

in those fields? Who has pursued those type of careers?

2:00:26

Not just finance. Anything. Just

2:00:29

any job. Just like me. I'm not for everybody.

2:00:31

I am somebody who has pursued an entertainment

2:00:33

career. I want to be on stage. I want to talk about my life. I

2:00:36

want to share a lot of things. If that is not

2:00:38

for you, I am not your girl. You might

2:00:40

think that that sounds cool and fun, but you get to

2:00:42

know me a little better and you're like, I don't want to be talked about on the podcast

2:00:45

week after week. And Instagram

2:00:47

reels week after week. So, you know,

2:00:49

you never know. Yeah. All

2:00:52

right. Well, Reina, good luck on your journey. Thank you so much,

2:00:54

Ashley. On your journey. It was really

2:00:56

fun. I want to sit down and do it again. I

2:00:58

really had so much fun that night. We were in the hotel lobby. Yeah.

2:01:01

Just like going through my stuff. Yeah. Your

2:01:03

pictures are beautiful. Your prompts are so funny.

2:01:06

What did I say my most irrational fear is? Do

2:01:09

you want to share this? Yeah. People are

2:01:11

going to rip you off. It's a great line. It's the

2:01:13

best. I didn't think you wanted to share it, but I'm out with it. What is

2:01:15

it? My most irrational fear? Sending a

2:01:17

sex to a family member. Accidentally.

2:01:20

Sorry. Accidentally sending a sex to a family member.

2:01:22

On purpose. Different story. And

2:01:24

we love it for a lot of reasons. Why am I speaking

2:01:27

about your thing? I thought

2:01:29

it was funny and edgy and playful. Also,

2:01:31

it's not that irrational of a fear. Like it's everybody's

2:01:33

fear. It's a really rational fear. But it also says

2:01:36

I'm going to sex with you. So I

2:01:38

think it's fun to flirt a little bit on these things. I

2:01:40

think that it is a fine line between

2:01:42

being too hypersexual

2:01:45

and

2:01:45

bringing it up a little bit. And

2:01:47

I think I just I brought it up a little bit. It's

2:01:50

the best answer I've ever seen. Oh my god, Ashley.

2:01:52

Because it really does open up to flirtation.

2:01:55

But it doesn't open up to like, yo, you

2:01:57

want to come suck my dick? Totally. send

2:02:00

me a sex? Yeah. Oh, you

2:02:02

could get that. That's okay. I don't mind it. I

2:02:06

just think it's, I just think it's perfect. I hadn't

2:02:08

seen it and now people are going to steal it and that's fine.

2:02:10

You guys can have it. I thought it was better to

2:02:12

do sex. Do not appropriate the

2:02:14

culture. If you're don't let your

2:02:17

mouth write checks, that your bus not going to cash, that's

2:02:19

your fingers are going to cash. Cause if you

2:02:21

really are not a sexter, don't be out here. Totally.

2:02:24

You cannot appropriate my culture. Yeah. And

2:02:26

I will sext and send you nudes like crazy.

2:02:28

So I just want somebody to know I'm like a little spicier,

2:02:31

but I'm also funny. I don't take myself too seriously. And

2:02:33

you have a family. Oh, also that I'm a family. Not everybody does.

2:02:38

Okay. But it's also just like family's

2:02:40
