deep when he explained why the phrase

4:38

eventually being here sledges

4:40

like just even my like my

4:43

career like i

4:45

started doing improv with adam

4:47

in like two thousand and five two thousand

4:49

and four so yeah we've known each other forever

4:51

through the you see be some starting

4:53

their with improv which is a big part hours things

4:55

i in my youth hosted

4:57

a bunch of are you know random game

5:00

shows for mtv like the substitute a couple

5:02

for true t v way back in the day

5:04

i was on the show called guy

5:06

code where we're just talking and a

5:08

riffing jokes all stuff that would

5:10

come in handy also this whole time

5:13

i'm in absolute fucking glutton

5:16

yeah i thought of eating and drinking and

5:18

smoking weed and those are all

5:20

skill and my ability to continue

5:22

to talk and holds court while drunk

5:25

which helped me get on the show drunk history

5:27

highly a having insane tolerance

5:30

which is allowed me to a survive hollywood

5:32

parties while while getting wasted without

5:35

blowing it all of those

5:37

skill sets all of those things i didn't realize

5:39

i was doing drunken improv shows i did

5:41

a one man show called blackout drunk where

5:43

i drag like twenty beers in an hour

5:45

and and tried to remember stories about

5:47

as i go oh that

5:50

that ran for a while wait too long actually

5:52

you were an amazing how many times a week or you

5:54

do him the has argued that once a week alcohol

5:56

once a month said you see be a better get on a

5:58

dad to be pretty brutal i had

6:01

to like somoza used to bring this the fringe

6:03

and i was like i think i'll die of emphysema or

6:05

thirty days a row of blackouts reading

6:08

in scotland's buzzer

6:10

sounds dangerous even that show adam

6:12

there was always a guest bartender someone who would try

6:14

to keep me on track and an admin i'd adam

6:17

and i did that and south by southwest together

6:20

and , both got we both are booked on

6:22

a movie called the little hours that my friend jeff

6:24

a was directing we both went to italy

6:26

together and we're in italy's traveling

6:29

and we're realizing that hide that travel

6:31

and party the same because we are on the same schedules

6:33

we're the same days off and so we realized

6:36

just party and and hang him out as i do jumped

6:38

out for another bottle of brunello is like fuck

6:40

yeah me too and we've been friends for like thirty years

6:42

of this points but we're realizing that we like

6:44

travel the exact same way were chatting

6:47

with whoever were flirting with the servers

6:49

were just like living or and i was like oh shit

6:51

and then as time went on we were like

6:53

we should do this for odds of

6:57

the best part of suit met movie was hanging

6:59

out hanging the city outside of the movie

7:02

so how can we chase that and then our managers

7:04

happen to be best friends are there are

7:06

different companies but they're also they're piece of the

7:08

show they come to us with the i'd

7:10

like we are the four of us gather round get this

7:12

idea go and get the rights to the book

7:15

and were like shit let's go out pitch it and

7:17

your tv was immediately on board

7:20

there were like this is in our wheelhouse

7:22

we were like fuck yes that means

7:24

you're in our wheelhouse true let's

7:26

ride it's pretty insane to get

7:28

someone to pay you to do something like this

7:30

a to travel to all these cities

7:33

to do it i'll do whatever you want it

7:35

, be a huge fucking when

7:38

if they just paid for us to yeah

7:40

that was in our tv yeah exactly

7:42

adam and i were joking because like you know with all the mergers

7:44

and said you never know what's gonna happen and and then

7:46

we realized squeal i had a victory

7:49

was just getting the travel on somebody else has

7:51

done much as we already we

7:53

already wants it really feels like

7:55

a highest like i i can't let

7:58

us know so insanely low lucky yeah

8:00

it could've been could've been on caribbean never aired

8:03

and that would've been fine right yeah who knows anything

8:05

can fucking anything could blow up a t

8:07

v show at this point you know shit of shutting down constantly

8:10

we we sold the travel show in february

8:13

we sold the pitch in february twenty twenty

8:15

right to it was hitting like

8:18

hitting feels so weird because the show we conceptualize

8:20

it before cove it and it's truly

8:23

we you know we still shot if we shut the pilots

8:25

are with some restrictions and

8:27

then we ah shut the rest of the season with

8:30

are just a little bit of restrictions because we

8:32

shut the rest of the season later on obviously

8:34

that our pilots and series works but

8:36

it's been really exciting psych if

8:38

you want to talk about like okay quarantines

8:40

lifted what you want to do it's like habit you flight

8:43

and eight cities and get a false echoed

8:45

us to restaurants a day at a

8:47

activities talk to every server in every

8:49

person you engage with a hero like oh

8:51

shit here we go necessary was it was

8:53

already hesitation are you just gonna jump them

8:55

snows actually kind of weird when shots a pilot

8:58

in denver we landed

9:01

and the mask mandate was lifted that

9:03

day in colorado to do it

9:05

but it was it was just really insane because

9:08

it had been like a year and change as me

9:10

not ever being in a list not ever

9:12

being in a plane and not being in a restaurants

9:15

and then in in one day i ripped off the

9:17

pants until i got maybe

9:19

, the way to do it i'm an irish

9:21

you're in a joint on the street a denver and i'm like hey

9:23

you're the first person i sure to join with the sides

9:25

tiffany my wife in like eighteen

9:28

months he's like oh shit same here

9:30

he said let us and israel

9:32

bonding moment for us to potter's well

9:34

there's something very cathartic about watching the

9:36

show and watching you guys travel

9:38

understood and do whatever you want because

9:41

i think so many of us have not been doing

9:43

that for the past couple of years i'm

9:45

and and want to get back to it yeah

9:47

i did get to see the the denver episode which

9:49

i thought was was really great oh

9:52

also at school and idea thank you

9:54

know really fun i want to see more where

9:56

else did you guys go over some other highlights of

9:58

or city ah city could see rattle off

10:00

all the city's roka richmond atlanta

10:03

does porto rico or

10:05

portland ah miami

10:08

ah moab and maui i

10:10

was a member the three ems together ah

10:13

yeah malaise for the finale

10:15

something great all those

10:17

cities are so rad i

10:20

like to tell people that richmond was the big surprise

10:22

us and us and kind of what we in

10:25

hindsight loved about the show is i like you're saying

10:27

like people are the fiend and to get

10:29

out and it's like well if you live within a two

10:31

hour drive of richmond you can party

10:34

enrichment you know you don't have to if you don't have to be able

10:36

to afford miami or maui or you

10:38

know you and so we want to prove that we

10:40

can park you can party anywhere it's about the attitude

10:42

it's about it's a mindset you know the

10:44

one hundred and one places mindset so richmond

10:47

was a big surprise puerto rico i had been

10:49

to before and but it was just like this time

10:51

around being in san juan without like

10:53

my mom and brothers and nephews

10:55

and nieces it felt like i felt like a

10:58

real fucking trip and that and that was really

11:00

thrilling and i haven't been to miami since

11:02

i was a little kid so that that was really

11:04

exciting for me but the big surprise

11:06

was moab i am not even seen

11:09

the word except my

11:11

video games because it stands for mother of all

11:13

bombs i at least

11:15

, him the worms game player

11:17

worth of the theater admirer of so

11:20

i never even heard of that and when

11:22

i was like oh why why would

11:24

we want to go there i saw i like looked up pictures and

11:26

i was like oh shit it looks like fuckin mars

11:29

that so rad so and ah

11:31

moab was to me the big surprise

11:33

like richmond was a surprise like i had i

11:35

had not expected it to be so fun and

11:37

then moab i just knew nothing about that was

11:39

true like like a true exploration

11:41

moment yeah i made a big part of the shows

11:44

obviously partying getting drunk

11:46

and high on camera which is something

11:48

that you maybe have done you know in

11:50

life settings and and all that is

11:53

it

11:53

it's scary at all to get

11:56

fucked up on camera and then not

11:58

know what year were you get what you can

11:59

what you're going to do i mean how do you think about

12:02

that i don't know i mean i i think i

12:04

spent my whole life getting for job and

12:06

be worried about what i had said the night before

12:08

i guess you know you gotta trust redditors

12:11

i got a sub a confidence in the producers

12:13

and editors i will say the thing

12:15

like that i don't have a difficulty

12:18

controlling myself like talking lies

12:20

and i'm drunk i would difficulty controlling myself

12:23

for more drinking soda hearts

12:25

the hardest part of the show knowing

12:28

you need to stop because tomorrow

12:31

you need to do this again but

12:33

, i like a pringles can like once

12:35

i'd pop i can assess them about like i

12:38

need to life lock myself in my hotel

12:40

room after i bad like you know six drinks

12:42

at dinner on like okay i i

12:44

know you know like we had this awesome fucking crew

12:47

you know great camera people great sound

12:49

people great ah the great producers

12:51

and they're watching to dude party and

12:53

all these cities and their the types of people

12:55

who take a job that is

12:57

a low budget travels away travel around

13:00

and film people get fucked up to you

13:02

know they're a little loose you know they'll

13:04

say i like for thought were going to stay at

13:06

this last spot we sought an eye

13:08

out here why out of it either i

13:10

got you guys get a hang out and me and adam are

13:12

guys who don't want to turn down a party where we

13:14

are the earpiece of issue hossa we feel the

13:16

need to party with our crew and our broader

13:19

their ass for success so now i've been

13:21

drinking all day and i like i bow tie to

13:23

drink for far far

13:25

i guess i gotta switch to water

13:27

at night with mice with the crew is that's that's

13:30

my season to plan if there is one is

13:33

what's the most fucked up you were during

13:36

the whole time filming oh

13:38

that's a good question in i'm

13:41

in portland we ate these kind of powerful edibles

13:43

and you see like my eyes are half closed

13:45

for like the entire episode but

13:47

also in moab in we

13:49

drink a bottle of bourbon around a bottle we split

13:52

a bottle a high west around a campfire and

13:54

die i was also like a little under

13:56

the weather and you can measure it at my voice and

13:58

it's aside the next morning i woke up and i was

14:00

like my eyes were crusted shot you know i just

14:02

felt like absolute dog shit

14:05

and i need to start like treating partying

14:07

like a couple of if if this is going to be my career

14:09

i need to start treating like a professional athlete i need

14:11

to like water offset and get into like an ice

14:14

bath and like a massage table i

14:16

gotta sit in front of one of those cool zone fans

14:18

like they have on the sidelines of the nfl

14:20

yeah it's

14:22

such a such a unique thing to to

14:25

do as your job i mean i can't i is

14:27

you said it's kind of like a a dream job but

14:29

it is it does feel a little a risky

14:31

in terms where where could lead

14:34

the i tried weirdly like a twilight zone

14:36

vladimir had a dream job we elect

14:38

i love to party it's like will now you're forty

gamers so rotten rocket are all

14:52

bets are like do wish you had the shop

14:54

twenty years ago or would that have been a mistake

14:57

20:46

your comedy dynamic in that together

20:49

we're we're very similar and very different

20:51

at the same time like were as different

20:53

as to forty year old white guy comedians from

20:55

the tri state area can be bad

20:58

as that does carry out you know we do carry

21:00

a lot of similarities with that's ah

21:02

but adam is always cracked

21:04

me up is one of my first friends i made

21:06

doing comedy in new york city and and we stuck

21:09

with it and the i like arts

21:11

him and i are both been with the same girls

21:13

forever ah which is a way to describe

21:16

him as a matter of force with

21:18

the same sick since i was twenty and

21:20

dot so like i've known his wife

21:22

as long as i've known him he's know my website where

21:24

our families are intertwined i would you know i know all

21:26

of his kids was there for his wedding the kids burst

21:29

the funerals are all that all that shit

21:31

we've been there for each other ah but

21:33

the hot man he always makes me less

21:35

t is t is laughed so

21:38

much in the show too because two

21:40

reasons stones drunk an

21:42

assist with my of i'm stoned a drunk

21:45

and i'm with my best friend who's a spherical

21:47

pets and look i'm not the only person

21:49

who thinks adam pally is funny clearly society

21:51

thinks he's pretty fucking funny the dude keeps

21:54

get works there's a reason he's

21:56

insanely charming and charming just eat

21:58

it works on me he gets me too and

22:00

i i can make him laugh too because

22:02

at he knows like he loves rose

22:04

getting roasted or roasting each other in like

22:07

that's a strong suit a mind stats are love

22:09

language did you have any

22:11

competition coming up because you were kind

22:13

of coming up together and would you go out

22:15

for the same parts and that concept ah not

22:18

not exactly we ah we were

22:20

tied the in different castes he also

22:23

was like my first friend to say

22:25

that successful early like he is

22:27

he like booked a twist commercial when we when

22:29

we just start now you know and and like you

22:31

were catching them in movies and tv

22:34

shows either way before the

22:36

of the rest of us myself included

22:38

so i never felt like we were ever competing

22:42

ah arm and and that energy

22:44

just doesn't come into the show either you know

22:46

to me and like we both ladies let the

22:48

other one be very funny on the show whenever

22:50

like i mean adam is you'll see what's

22:52

the rest episodes adam is so funny in

22:54

all of the fucking cities like i love watching him

22:57

and that's a will watch caught up in a

22:59

bro you're so fucking funny and this and he'll

23:01

be like dude you're so fucking funny and then i

23:03

think that's a good sides are you know

23:05

where you they're just stand near second each other's dicks for no

23:07

reason or maybe it's a good sign

23:09

that we both think the others funny in this so

23:12

we'll see a separate there's a great

23:14

moment in the denver episode where

23:16

you can have both get recognized

23:18

as famous but that people don't have

23:20

any i'd have was like your says that that

23:22

we are firing throughout the entire know

23:24

how can ask us a common experiences

23:27

com , experience and that and that

23:30

was really fun that's where we got like play

23:32

playfully competitive because we were just be

23:34

like who do you recognize near

23:37

frequently people would just assume they

23:40

knew me from somewhere because i'm somewhere giants

23:42

free to dress is weird you know our

23:44

success every once in awhile so i'll be like or

23:46

this american life very

25:11

different yeah new york city was city got

25:14

you know you read while you rode the subway back

25:16

then ah arm and then podcast

25:19

start popping off and someone

25:21

recommends comedy bang bang to me and it's really

25:24

fucking funny and you're not listening to crawl

25:26

and death and some people i know from

25:28

you see be new york who have

25:30

already moved out and hearing them on

25:33

their and then i came

25:35

out to l a and was just doing just c

25:37

b l a staff you know the standard grind

25:39

shit when shit moved out here and here and

25:41

off from an ast neil campbell

25:43

ah that those nine

25:46

keeper asking him to

25:48

our aid you know and are there any new you see

25:50

be people around that like could be fun

25:53

for comedy bang bags he recommended me

25:55

ah i was a big said you

25:57

know a guy was a big dog and he's been york and

25:59

the

25:59

came out here and was just us up and

26:02

comer but deeds and skies

26:04

told me the story in the past so i i don't

26:06

feel crazy quoting him here but

26:08

when scott when i scots like

26:10

so what kind of can't you and your mike on a do like

26:12

a long island radio guys obsessed for

26:14

shock jocks like opie and anthony said he was

26:16

like oh , christ

26:20

little did he know that he a like he like a role

26:22

in his at you as i do this or how is this

26:24

going to work little did he know i would do like

26:27

he episode has the had the effect

26:30

yeah made a lot of people come out and play a

26:32

bunch of different characters you've been pretty consistent

26:34

with with chino so

26:36

what was the what lowes the original idea behind

26:39

playing the the intern who are who

26:41

didn't really know what a podcast was yeah well

26:43

i i kind of like the idea of like this

26:46

and you know what part of it was me

26:48

being thirty something years old and not fully

26:50

understanding what a podcast was because

26:52

it was such a new thing to me on

26:55

that we we don't have car culture

26:57

in new york so there's no like are you gonna listen to this

27:00

in your car that our yeah wasn't a this radio

27:02

show i'm so for me i was

27:04

that the only action i can really

27:06

do is like a new york actually but i also know all

27:09

like i grew up on long island and i have a up in

27:11

on earned long island pride are

27:13

you know i'd i should not be telling people have

27:15

pride in being from long island but that came

27:17

into play with genome ago that i'll be fun for me to

27:19

do and i and i have been listening to the shell

27:21

for a while and i was i to people do new york accents

27:24

are you know like that the guido accent

27:26

from bobby bottle service or whoever but i was

27:28

like i'll be doing something different and then i'll

27:30

just keep getting confused about

27:33

radio and that i'll be fine now be an intern

27:35

and i'll be go to nasa community college

27:37

drug addled a specific like that was about

27:40

all i had

27:41

i'm in my third year national community college

27:44

radio major com an idea for xmas

27:46

damn soul palm to be don't sell for you guys

27:48

yeah and yeah i'm ready to go well tell

27:50

me what to do i could do it while the first thing would be

27:53

you know i mean you're not supposed to necessarily

27:55

talks as much on the mike but mike guess but i did

27:57

i did address you so it's okay apologize

27:59

we'll keep it radio silence and

28:02

see what i did this i'm not going to say anything

28:04

else for the rest of this our with this is emmys

28:06

migrants since two houses not radio podcast

28:08

what's so bad joke doesn't really this

28:11

is this is technically radio though right

28:13

you listen to

28:14

the don't watch it i guess what is not broadcast

28:16

on the radio waves the think would be these

28:18

are the difference i see like even though it's a podcast

28:21

as you call it that my radio

28:23

major will help me out in a situation such as as

28:26

much do

28:28

, feel like it opened a lot of doors for you in

28:30

the comedy world being on comedy bang bang

28:32

our first serve what the main thing

28:35

it opened up for me ah yes edited

28:37

open up a lot of comedy doors are also scott

28:39

put me in at a few episodes of the comedy bang

28:41

bang tv show which helps you know help line

28:44

the pockets a little are the

28:46

main thing got me was into the

28:48

podcast time this sub culture

28:50

and arabia into the in our

28:53

environment whatever it whatever that the landscape

28:55

and ah as do and other people's

28:57

podcasts and then all the said you know people

29:00

go in like you should have a podcast

29:02

and me being like what i don't want to podcast

29:04

the like yeah dude everyone has

29:06

you shouldn't have their own pockets people seem to

29:08

like you end up like people tweeting

29:10

at me like love you on comedy bang bang

29:12

you should have a podcast seven i like launch

29:15

the most self serving podcast in america

29:18

and you know and i in a self serving

29:20

mediums i launch a podcast called high and mighty

29:22

which is just a rip off of the joe

29:24

rogan show the jeff rubin show any

29:27

it you know it's to this show is

29:29

just a chat it's just a chat show where

29:31

the vibes are with slightly slightly less

29:33

professional assess , not

29:36

done that for like six years are like every

29:38

week i have a not miss one week i have like four

29:40

hundred episodes or some shit like that and

29:42

that's been really fun and in the pandemic

29:45

it's all i had was podcasting

29:47

and by and then i mighty

29:49

spurred action boys which is like me

29:51

and two buddies talking about action movies and

29:54

that is like that was my previous dream

29:56

job when i didn't know it possible

29:58

to be paid to travel the world and drink

30:00

for free and get an email and to smoke weed

30:03

before i knew that was a possible career

30:05

sitting with your buddies for three hours

30:08

every week and on packing best of the best

30:10

are commando i didn't know that was a

30:12

career option at the time and i was

30:14

at not a super lucrative career but

30:17

enough to feel crazy i did see you describe

30:19

your podcast in an interview as a quote

30:21

less aggro less masculine joe rogan

30:24

so ah yeah i and i

30:26

just a completely different politics by ah

30:28

yeah i think i used to listen to the joe rogan

30:31

show way back in the day when we sort of like deep

30:33

conversations with weirdos from

30:35

realms of that joe rogan

30:38

was interested in which is sort of like

30:40

wow that's what i would wanna do is like

30:43

early , in my career or maybe

30:46

you know not as i do with my career but

30:48

when i was my twenties i heard that brian

30:50

grazer same hollywood super producer

30:52

had like a lunch booked every week

30:55

with like a different scientist

30:57

was thought leader indifference

31:00

and i was like that's the shit that opens

31:02

up your mind so when i when i came up an idea

31:04

like i want to talk to my comedy friends but

31:06

not about comedy i want to talk to them about

31:09

the stuff that's they like that they're passionate

31:11

about that were both passion about that we both

31:14

i'm curious about they're passionate about

31:16

like how are you not so for episode to

31:18

be able to do that for four

31:20

hundred something episodes as them is been a

31:22

dream near near other moment

31:24

from the new so that i wanted to

31:27

to touch on is there's this really kind of heartfelt

31:29

moment near the end of the first episode

31:32

where you're talking you're you know how

31:34

sort life is and to go around

31:36

i'm your dad can

31:38

you talk about that talk little bit and

31:41

and why you wanted to know include that

31:43

wanted the in the episode sure while

31:46

the before you die part of the title

31:48

is not for nothing

31:51

you know like ah adams

31:53

mom died a very young men

31:55

are in in her sleep by dad

31:57

died very young from brain cancer

32:00

and it's yes we bought

32:02

and adam and i are both already prone

32:04

to you know ah grabbing life

32:07

by the balls but those two events inspired

32:09

us a little bit more to be like what

32:11

if you die as safety something like

32:13

that i got if if i die at my dad's

32:16

age i got like swell twelve years

32:18

lest you know mean and it's i what am i going to do

32:20

with these fuck and twelve years and i think the

32:22

analogy i give our the story i

32:24

tell in the episode which is a story i've been telling

32:26

since my dad passed ah my

32:29

dad was a super smart guy g

32:31

e d but like as self taught like you

32:33

32:38

workaholic as well like most baby

32:41

32:43

his ass all the time yet

32:46

a shelf of books and

32:48

32:49

rak of wine bottles

32:51

that were gifts that he was like

32:53

when i retire i'm going to drink all the good

32:55

wine and read all my books at the beach

32:58

and then he died

33:00

with a case about never read the case why

33:02

never drag i need to be fair when

33:05

he was straight up not

33:07

with us kind of barely functioning we

33:09

did open his best bottle of red wine

33:12

are , have it around his hospice bed

33:15

makes his with us a thickening

33:17

agent which is like they said that are liquid

33:19

35:42

bought at the same time as like this isn't why

35:44

you got into comedy to like hopefully

35:46

hustle season have enough money for a down

35:48

payment like he wanted money you could

35:50

36:23

i think i want really bad life

36:26

40:04

so dumps or that shit worked on me

40:06

so well when i was a kid and

40:08

then when i was more in the my like late

40:11

teens teens seeing

40:13

anchorman in the movie theater and

40:15

says part when they get to like the news

40:17

caster fight like every once in

40:19

a rumble to me that was so fucking

40:22

funny and so indicative

40:24

of my sense of humor of like here's a normal thing

40:26

and now we're in a gladiator movie

40:28

you know it's like a brick where'd you get excited

40:31

to see my love for a while you hear you

40:34

during that you killed a guy you killed

40:36

a guy during that post fight breakdown

40:39

on laughing so hard that earnest i'm

40:41

squeezing my deck and spurts

40:43

40:46

but i don't want to get up and go i just had

40:48

stops i don't want a myth addicts side urinate

40:50

a and i should just look up when

40:52

anchorman came out because ah

40:54

out two thousand and four great sauce twenty two years

40:57

old pc my path to success also

41:00

i think a big part my comedy are bringing

41:02

i should say is my family everyone

41:05

in my family is very funny

41:07

ah my mom is like goofy

41:09

and self deprecating and ah

41:12

so she's also great how

41:14

many audience she laughs a lot like you get

41:16

are going ah my dad

41:19

not

41:19

the deprecating at all by

41:21

the other deprecate a king of the roast

41:23

like are arguably mean

41:26

like a lot of there's not a word people

41:28

used to describe my dad was mean

41:31

he was mean but he was so fucking

41:33

funny so cutting and

41:35

then all of his siblings

41:37

were like that and then me i

41:39

have two younger brothers who are both probably

41:42

even funnier than i am they just

41:44

don't have the insane li sake ego

41:46

to like rock and roll all the way through

41:48

it but we grew up just being latchkey

41:50

our parents were you know my

41:53

mom as mom as my dad was a stagehand so

41:55

that hours were weird they were working at night

41:57

they were working weekends so is the three

41:59

of us watching comedy movies making

42:02

each other last do and pranks do and vandalism

42:04

is the classic several child

42:07

shit but like i see i doubt part my comedy

42:09

upbringing to was like we would just crack

42:11

up we still are i'm forty

42:13

my brother's a thirty seven and thirty two and we

42:15

still crack each other up

42:18

nonstop so it's that that was definitely

42:20

part of my and hot shots

42:22

is like their favorite zero and we all have higher

42:25

than the myriad of connected

42:27

to that the new with your family but remember the first

42:30

time that you knew you were funny that you could make

42:32

other people laugh oh

42:34

yeah you know early on

42:37

i realize that like my

42:39

little i was cute enough

42:41

to be a wise ass and people liked

42:43

it like other people's pets and then i

42:45

i don't know how us six minus about am i come

42:47

across as a little bit creepy

42:49

here but like making women
