00:03:47.740

00:03:55.360
super fun it will release while I'm on tour very cool it's called Andromeda and it's gonna be
00:04:01.820
really fierce and fun and then I have a whole other b-side of the project to very put out and
00:04:09.320
yeah as all your many plates that you're spinning um so many yeah i love every one of them you're
00:04:15.380
very very busy pop star can you tell me about the new project like where did it come from like
00:04:19.940
inspiration wise like how are you feeling when you put this project together wow it's such a like
00:04:24.840
it's so interesting because i wrote this project and probably like one of my like
00:04:29.600
darkest i feel like moments really of myself in like my career i feel like i started like
00:04:37.280
obviously a lot of people know me from my online content being goofy silly yeah and we love her
00:04:42.460
and she's still here yeah but like I think I found myself being like I don't it's not that I don't
00:04:48.140
resonate with that girl that I am it's just like there's more right to myself like I grew up as a
00:04:54.220
musician I grew up doing theater like I've always dreamed of bigger and you can sing bitch you can
00:05:02.400
sing bitch for real chrissy can sing for real period listen and you know that that is true
00:05:08.700
that's like what you're like i feel like is one of your strongest powers is being able to sing
00:05:14.060
and your purpose absolutely absolutely like there's no there's nothing else i'd rather be doing
00:05:19.360
and like going on stage and singing and like i don't know as a kid it was like i'm either gonna
00:05:24.860
listen to my parents screaming at each other downstairs or i'm gonna belt louder than them
00:05:28.940
bitch and that's what I did that's how I learned to sing so like you know it's just it's so like
00:05:36.000
emotional and like I don't know I feel like when I got to LA you get here and then there's a million
00:05:40.920
people telling you this is what you should do and this is who you should meet and you should be this
00:05:44.460
way and do this and x y and z and I just got so overwhelmed that I stopped I stopped doing
00:05:49.640
everything I like I put out one EP that I kind of just didn't promote and like I kind of wasn't
00:05:55.180
proud of it I love it it just wasn't me right and I just completely like shrank and I just completely
00:06:02.420
like put myself in a like a box and was just like I can't look at myself I can't post I can't make
00:06:09.140
music all of this and I just didn't know what to do because it was like do I be the girl that
00:06:16.280
everyone knows me as or do I be the girl that everyone knows me as but with the things I love
00:06:21.080
that are hard to achieve that i'm willing to try and i don't know i just like one day literally in
00:06:30.280
august woke up and i was like okay i need to stop being so hard on myself being like overthinking
00:06:38.320
everything i need to like cut everyone out not cut everyone out but like all of the people who
00:06:43.380
are like you need to be doing it this way you're not good enough doing this like you can't do all
00:06:47.120
that and I was like I'm just gonna let that go I'm gonna write a project in two weeks and I'm
00:06:52.540
gonna release it yeah and that's exactly what I did okay period and how did you feel trying that
00:06:57.820
new method it was so liberating it was so amazing just to like be like I'm gonna rely on me and I'm
00:07:04.240
gonna rely on what I love and like I didn't wait I didn't make so much music where I was like
00:07:08.880
picking through and like this is the one like this is the one it was just like I like passion
00:07:14.440
fruit so I'm gonna put out first and I ended up doing fine like I did great like and then with
00:07:19.200
the others and the whole project itself it just was like it's called Christine because that's like
00:07:23.960
my name you know yeah and like that's the girl like that's the girl I know and I love and I
00:07:28.800
wrote it for her and it just really came out of nowhere yeah but also came out of like a need I
00:07:35.660
was like I need to make something and I need to do something right same with this tour is like I
00:07:40.280
just I need to do it and I need to like also be comfortable if it just like doesn't go the way I
00:07:46.060
want it to well you're also a creative right so when you're not creating you feel like you're
00:07:50.860
dying probably oh yeah right so it's like that's one of those things where you're like I need to
00:07:55.200
get back to me I I think that's really brave and courageous of you because it's hard especially
00:07:59.120
in the music industry shit the way that they want to mold you and change you and what they think
00:08:04.100
will sell and also I agree with I totally get what you mean about feeling distant from the
00:08:09.640
TikTok version of yourself because I feel that way too many many times like because we all know
00:08:15.100
like you and I both came up honestly around the same time yeah on TikTok but also like with very
00:08:20.960
specific niches so we have like very specific things which like like you said I agree with
00:08:25.400
your what you said about how like that is me but that's not everything yes and and it does get
00:08:30.860
exhausting after a while feeling like having to perform as that thing as opposed to what you
00:08:36.620
everything else that makes you who you are totally so I get what you mean because it gets very
00:08:41.680
stifling and it gets very like pigeonhole-y almost like it it feels like every single
00:08:46.660
thing you do or when you have people that want to work with you they really want you to lean into
00:08:51.500
that one very specific thing which you're like okay but that was like if that was like part of
00:08:57.460
it and I have lots of other things to offer and it doesn't have to be just that like yeah like I
00:09:02.220
love her like she's fierce and it's not that i'm not like silly goofy funny running around but it's
00:09:07.740
like i'm not not on the streets of chicago anymore i'm not 22 like i'm i'm doing things that i really
00:09:14.700
care about and i really love and like those things come with it but right you know it's it's almost
00:09:20.620
like a flipping career completely it's like i have to reconvince people to like care about it you
00:09:26.040
know in a way i see what you mean which like is kind of fun also it's like i love a challenge well
00:09:31.760
and then you get to when you do it that way you get to do it the way you want and the way that
00:09:35.240
you want to be perceived like you get to put yourself out there in a way that feels true
00:09:39.480
and authentic to you absolutely as opposed to what people think will sell exactly which could
00:09:44.820
be anything like that's they never they act like they know but they don't always know do they ever
00:09:49.620
know that's what i'm saying sometimes they just get lucky and like can we talk about it it's like
00:09:53.740
all these men all the time it's all these men every time in this industry who are like you as
00:09:59.980
a woman I'm gonna tell you what sells and I'm gonna tell you how you should look and how you
00:10:03.620
should act and how and two women how what sells two women yeah which is crazy which is crazy
00:10:08.920
it was just like it's so it was so jarring the first couple years of my career in music that
00:10:15.540
like I never really have talked about or touched on because it just was like I felt like I got
00:10:20.760
swarmed about what people what they wanted from me right and I would like kind of do it like kind
00:10:25.400
of not and then when I wouldn't do it the way they wanted they're like oh you're worthless
00:10:29.020
right oh we don't like you and i was like you told me to do that you told me to do that and
00:10:33.620
also like why are you not trusting the girl that built her whole thing herself anyway exactly
00:10:38.100
that's like the frustrating part absolutely that's why like at this point in my music journey i'm
00:10:44.020
like very untrusting yeah of the industry and the business yeah itself just because it's like i don't
00:10:51.740
think you're gonna give me something that i need to know right now right and like you're not gonna
00:10:56.980
pay attention to me until you have to exactly and that's okay yeah that's so fine i'd rather you not
00:11:02.820
pay attention well and then at that at that level you might as well just do it on your own exactly
00:11:07.020
at that point without them siphoning shit off of you at the same time literally and like giving you
00:11:12.300
fake money that's like not yours and like it's just it's it's just so confusing and like
00:11:19.480
exhausting and i'm just glad i learned so early in the game of my music right i'm still a new
00:11:25.240
artists absolutely and i'm still learning so much but like i learn quickly like uh-uh you are you
00:11:32.120
adapt that's what you do the divas are gonna come to you and go you are the next thing and then
00:11:36.860
you're gonna be like yeah okay girl like i will be on my own time right and the only people that
00:11:41.840
honestly are right every time they pick are the gays can we talk about right the only the only
00:11:47.060
time they like someone who's has like a hundred percent batting average are the gays exactly when
00:11:52.220
they pick a girl in pop that's the one they're right yeah they're right they're right every time
00:11:56.620
they're right and they you know what they're just it takes a little longer for them to see the
00:12:01.240
theater girls in pop that's true but they they'll see us okay they'll see us I'm curious about
00:12:07.460
theater have you ever thought about doing Broadway oh yeah I would love for you to do
00:12:11.460
Broadway Chrissy you would kill on Broadway I would love to and you should manifest that here
00:12:16.040
if that is one of your dreams because I have put two dolls on Broadway from that chair and that is
00:12:20.780
a fact this is the chair this is the broadway chair yeah like dylan manifested with me that
00:12:26.300
she wanted to be in a broadway show she's in six now and anaya she's she's uh and what is it rocky
00:12:31.820
horror yeah and i cried when she told me i told me and i sobbed like i was like okay wow oh my god
00:12:39.760
it's so fucking incredible well it's like watching like also knowing dylan like i've known her for
00:12:44.040
so long too it's just like i don't know when you all grow up as a theater kid you have the same
00:12:49.360
dream I'm gonna be on Broadway I'm gonna go to New York City bitch like come on like I had a
00:12:56.400
poster of New York in my room yeah my tiny little room as a kid and like with like Anna Nia like
00:13:03.440
her making it it just like it was like and you guys have been friends for so long for so long
00:13:09.300
like she's been there for me forever I'm gonna cry like she's just I every win she gets I'm just
00:13:15.360
like i can't i can't comprehend how proud i am yeah and it's like that one specifically because
00:13:21.020
like yeah we all just like wanted that it's just so it's so amazing it's so affirming too
00:13:28.160
for everyone and that's why i know you're already winning but you're gonna win even more because you
00:13:33.360
are pure in your happiness for others which is i think an essential part of manifesting is like
00:13:38.340
genuinely being happy when other people achieve things too and i have to i do that too all the
00:13:43.440
time with my friends when they achieve things it's like i i talked about this actually with
00:13:46.860
britney once where sometimes like what you were saying about ananiya being uh in rocky horror
00:13:51.240
it's like there's something about watching someone move in their purpose that makes me
00:13:55.740
emotional no i'm like going to cry as we're talking about especially when we talk about
00:14:00.600
internet girls because we're all we're all internet girls all of us are internet girls
00:14:04.120
and watching us get to leave the internet and like do what we really want to do like purpose
00:14:10.340
for real oh my god moves me to tears every time i think about it i'm like i'm like i already had
00:14:15.920
therapy today i'm like fuck i have therapy tomorrow so i'll be sure to clock in with
00:14:20.340
already cried today on therapy like it's just so beautiful it's beautiful it's so amazing we have
00:14:26.580
this level of understanding with each other because like we knew what it was like to like
00:14:30.120
get online and blow up or something and then like you know keep chasing that thing and then to be
00:14:34.120
like but i have dreams yeah like and that's and that goes along with what you were saying earlier
00:14:38.900
which is why I know it's going to happen for you exactly the way it's supposed to happen and the
00:14:42.380
way you want it to happen more specifically because it really is one of those things where
00:14:47.040
like you are taking a chance on you because no one's ever going to work harder for themselves
00:14:51.700
than you I mean absolutely so I know what's going to happen for you in exactly the way you want it
00:14:56.920
to happen more specifically because it's already tried to happen but you didn't feel good about it
00:15:00.880
and there was a reason why it didn't happen then I so wholeheartedly agree with that I just feel
00:15:05.940
like with myself too it's just like I've I've always like had me you know just the way I grew
00:15:11.860
up and like all of that like I've always had to champion myself right and so I had to like when
00:15:16.960
I was going through so much like this past year and in August I had to like be like whoa like you
00:15:21.320
don't have yourself girl yeah you've always had yourself you've always been the one to like hold
00:15:25.820
yourself when stuff happened and like I'm not doing that I'm not taking care of her right and
00:15:30.880
that was like the moment that I was like oh my god like I have to take care of myself I have to love
00:15:35.820
myself I have to champion myself I love that because no one else is going to say that bitch
00:15:41.520
honestly no one is going to there will be people in your life who come who love you and it's so
00:15:46.420
pure and I know it's real because I have that love for other people right but like you're the
00:15:50.780
only one who can really like do it do it and be there for you like take care of you for real which
00:15:56.220
is so true I talk about that all the time that's why I'm like so convinced now like this is like
00:16:01.560
the birth of your new your your new journey right the a better journey also I just want to say
00:16:07.560

00:17:34.180
have like uh madrigals is what they were called which is like the good good choir yes so they
00:17:38.860

00:19:09.480
oh but love who doesn't love an ensemble part like that's what cindia revo told me she's like
00:19:15.400
the ensemble's essential come on no we need it for the whole show me being like i haven't been
00:19:20.260
in the show since i was like 19 i think but i'm like we need the ensemble but you're a theater
00:19:26.640
girl that's in your dna code oh it's in my it's in everything i do every song i make like it's
00:19:32.360
not gonna have a weird like theater-esque element the shows i do like bitch we got dancers and like
00:19:38.980
props and like reveals you gotta be on broadway because you have a belt too in you like we have
00:19:45.920
to like manifest we're manifesting we're manifesting that plus the pop star career
00:19:50.460
yeah i was also gonna say to your what you were talking about your journey was kind of reminding
00:19:54.380
me of uh rebecca black when she was here yeah she talked about the same thing and she was saying like
00:19:58.820
but the gays have always been behind me yes they have championed me forever and i was like right
00:20:03.900
and they have you too they will they always do zara larson another one and zara larson's been
00:20:09.140
in the game for over a decade and just this last couple years she's really popped off yeah i mean
00:20:13.520
that's the game it's just like you have to stick around and i think like when i like started to
00:20:19.180
revert back i was like oh girl you're not in the game right you're not doing it right like
00:20:23.060
you have to stick through it you're gonna flop and you're gonna fly and then you're gonna flop
00:20:27.600
again and it's okay it doesn't mean anything and like who cares what people on like twitter are
00:20:33.140
gonna say it really doesn't mean anything at all especially because it defeats the purpose of art
00:20:37.040
when you are only focusing on numbers and money like it defeats the purpose of art the whole point
00:20:41.620
is to create right yes and that's probably i'm sure why the recalibration that you had last
00:20:47.120
summer was like a good thing for you absolutely because you got to go back to the whole point of
00:20:51.500
it which is to make stuff like is to create something that you're proud of and that you love
00:20:55.080
it's like what i love the money to be able to create what i want yes right yeah of course
00:21:00.220
do I have it no am I happy yeah okay like the money it's not the same as it was once upon a
00:21:09.280
time but hey I'm like and it will come it will come and I like smile yeah and at least and at
00:21:14.740
least you're fulfilled and happy and that's more than a lot of other people can say yeah and even
00:21:19.520
like on your new project like what would you say is like your favorite song oh if you can pick a
00:21:26.060
i know it's like picking children but it is i i always say to my fans when they ask me that i
00:21:31.720
always say my song apollo i really love it i love the music video for it it's just so classic
00:21:37.320
like 2010 pop like just the things i grew up listening to being like oh my god i'm like
00:21:42.440
gonna die i love this um and it's like also like a song that's like about just like it's just about
00:21:50.380
like uh like chasing the light and like leaving the darkness and like this is that gay shit but
00:21:56.860
i love it like it's so gay but like it's always like what a beautiful way yeah and so it's like
00:22:04.560
what i was going through and i just i have so much love for that song and then like the my
00:22:09.900
i'm a ballad girl yeah i always sneak a ballad and no one really listens to my ballads i love
00:22:15.080
a ballad I love a ballad and I more specifically love your ballads see yes me too like those are
00:22:20.980
the ones for me and my song girl on the moon is like my my other favorite from the project beautiful
00:22:27.100
why that one it's so other than loving a ballad other than loving a ballad I like I wrote that
00:22:33.700
song by myself and it's just about like you know shit so much stuff is happening and I'm stressed
00:22:41.240
out and life is hard and I just want to go to the moon and just be away from all of this like that's
00:22:46.380
really what it's about just like what would it be to just be comforted on my by myself yeah and have
00:22:51.440
myself and like away from everything and it just like is so I don't know like when I honestly when
00:22:58.520
I get sad and I'm stressed out I like play that song in my head because I'm like I can be like
00:23:04.360
the girl on the moon like I can like I can have myself I can exist in my own way beyond this it's
00:23:10.580
like corny but i love it it's not corny or it's it's beautiful it's gorge and honestly real on
00:23:17.860
especially now shit right especially fucking now i'm sure a lot of us would rather be on the
00:23:22.920
fucking moon i know like can we go meet you hitch a ride okay so when you do have um write your
00:23:29.540
music when you have you're in the writing process like where do you do you have like
00:23:33.180
you know moments where it hits like inspiration hits and you're just like i think i'm gonna write
00:23:38.480
now or do you like to wait do you like to block out time to write or do you just kind of do it
00:23:42.580
when it hits inspiration I guess I block out time because I I work with like one guy Dallas who
00:23:49.160
he's like my brother love he's perfect and awesome and such a good human being and we've been writing
00:23:55.740
together since I'm so hot which was my first song I did with him yeah and um we just block out time
00:24:01.640
together and a lot of times I come in without inspiration and then he starts I'm like I want
00:24:07.040
the song to sound blue and he's like okay and he knows what that means and he just does it
00:24:13.320
like a my song apollo i was like let's make it blue and then he whipped that out and then i was
00:24:18.540
we were able to like come up with a concept and like all of that and everything and sometimes
00:24:23.440
like i have amazing writers who come in like alex feltry or like jesse st john who have been like
00:24:29.520
all over all my projects as well who come in with their great ideas too and like really relate to
00:24:34.520
like what they know about me but it's it's also personal because like yeah half the time we're
00:24:38.760
writing but the other like three hours we're just talking yeah we're just talking about everything
00:24:42.560
in our lives i've heard that from many different artists like sometimes that's where it comes from
00:24:46.600
it's just kind of chatting but where you're at exactly mentally emotionally spiritually yeah you
00:24:52.000
just like you need people to me it's like i love collaborators in every way because it's like
00:24:56.580
they're gonna pull something out of you that you didn't even realize based on like
00:24:59.940
a conversation you had with them like three years ago you know i love that it's so cool and it's
00:25:05.300
nice to work with the same people i'm sure like they just get your vibe like when you find a good
00:25:09.620
one it's family yeah it has to be because i don't know how many producers i've gone with that are
00:25:15.000
just random who they just like don't like anything i do and then i'm like okay why am i here okay so
00:25:20.740
i feel like you hate me like can you sing like this i'm like no that's my voice hello can you
00:25:26.560
like make it less like that can you stop being you by the way and i'm like can you it's really
00:25:31.480
getting in the way of my ability to produce like one of us is gonna get hit here and it's not gonna
00:25:36.240
be me like hello okay so let's talk about tour tour how excited are you what do you look most
00:25:44.040
looking forward to what are you most uh nervous about give us all tea uh everything i'm okay i'm
00:25:50.840
like so i'm like a day away from leaving yeah and i am like beyond nervous like i am been a
00:25:56.160
performer my whole life yeah I'm never nervous and you've done live shows many many many times
00:26:00.940
yeah that's all I do huge crowd I pop my pussy like I sing those notes divas yeah I'm terrified
00:26:08.320
I don't know why I think it's just like this is like I everything with my music career I really
00:26:13.780
have done like solely by myself with my amazing like gay people who helped me like team of gays
00:26:19.980
my team of gays I have one too come on they're real and we love them oh girl I literally was
00:26:24.440
like I need women and gay people yes sorry that's all I have room for I'm sorry in house no my DEI
00:26:31.620
hire is a straight man honestly that's my DEI I get it my my actual manager is a straight guy but
00:26:37.480
he's a straight guy where I can go shut up and he's got like less talky from you no and he goes
00:26:43.080
okay and he goes Chrissy you can always tell me to shut up and I'm like I know yeah trust me I
00:26:46.980
know yeah I know and I do and I love him down but like it is literally just gays and girls yeah need
00:26:54.120
them and I need them I mean they they're the only reason I was able to do all this like every other
00:26:58.820
random guy that was on my team like was like oh you're not good enough we don't want you and I
00:27:03.540
was like okay and then like my gays and girls just we all put this tour together period like
00:27:08.420
out of nowhere like literally out of nowhere yeah and I'm just I think I'm just like shocked
00:27:13.880
I'm just shocked it's happening yeah I don't know it's like you dream of something for so long
00:27:19.660
like ever since you're a kid and like so much of my life has just been singing in my room and like
00:27:24.840
coming home from rehearsals and like going back and like dreaming of like shows or like
00:27:29.740
yeah broadway or like all these things and now it's happening and i'm like i'm scared i don't
00:27:36.620
know why like it's just it's sometimes scary to accomplish your dreams no hell yeah i agree or
00:27:43.360
it's just kind of like oh my god i can't believe i'm doing it for real yes it feels it feels very
00:27:48.420
surreal but it's a beautiful thing walk in it confidently girl because yeah you deserve it
00:27:53.000
you've earned it yeah and you're gonna kill it you're gonna have so much fun i really do think
00:27:57.080
you're gonna have a blast probably on tour i know i know i'm gonna love it so much i mean my whole
00:28:02.220
tour crew is like gay people like a gay boy and all lesbians like it's gonna be so perfect like
00:28:08.280
thank god thank god tour is really hard and my yours is gonna be way harder than mine was because
00:28:14.920
mine is just sitting and saying pee pee poo poo out my butt like in a mic for an hour whereas
00:28:19.700
like yours you're like performing like for real but even i it was fucking hard but it was really
00:28:25.380
fun yeah it was really fun because we had like a great team and i think that's like the key to
00:28:30.540
surviving and having a good time is having a lot of really good people with you yeah so you're set
00:28:35.580
there i think you're gonna have a blast totally and just remembering to like be a person right
00:28:39.960
i think sometimes it's like i love i get i turn on and i'm like i'm chrissy and i'm here and i'm
00:28:44.520
present but you know i'm i'm like such a usually quieter person honestly on my day-to-day that like
00:28:51.920
i know i'm gonna get very drained not in a bad way but it's like finding those little moments of like
00:28:57.520
resetting a little bit reset yeah yeah i agree letting myself do that oh my god that's so nice
00:29:04.520

00:32:18.840
brother-in-law because he was helping us with security and my man and my dad and it was funny
00:32:25.380
because every venue we went to they're always like oh yeah they have security but it's always
00:32:29.760
like some 90 year old guy and he has like a back brace and he's like can't lift heavy things sorry
00:32:35.080
and you're like no for sure we'll bring all the stuff in ourselves right and it was funny because
00:32:39.360
my agent's husband also came for a few of the shows on some of the legs of the tour and the
00:32:45.200
way my family and him were like just doing all of the roadie work just moving everything in and out
00:32:50.840
everyone's sweating through their t-shirts because it was summer so it was like it really is like a
00:32:55.680
self-run thing it is it's a self-run operation it is no one's doing that for you no you like
00:33:01.800
need fucking help so and then someone to be tour manager or whatever so we had like we had someone
00:33:06.540
that was with us the whole time Keisha love her she was the best um and she was running all av
00:33:11.040
and stuff on our shows but we don't have all the fancy stuff that i'm sure you're gonna have
00:33:15.440
just lights and so oh yeah we just had one light oh yeah and we're like what the hell
00:33:19.960
so what's going to happen like literally my meeting with them today we were like so
00:33:24.500
lighting yeah oh shit backdrop like all these things i'm saying it's me and a gay guy it's
00:33:30.700
me and a gay guy and we're like both the most neurodivergent oh no like i don't know how either
00:33:36.780
of us have a collective thought ever sometimes we look at each other we go and then we both like
00:33:42.160
know exactly what we mean it's like kind of terrifying right we get things done but i'm
00:33:47.340
also terrified because it's me and a gay guy well and you're it's just me and a twink no it's me and
00:33:52.980
a twink and i love him he's my brother but like girl what are we gonna do the aries makes a lot

00:34:11.280
yes but they type b people stress me out but honestly everything always works out we always
00:34:16.380

00:34:21.040
it's gonna be amazing like no it'll be perfect i just don't know how like i don't i won't know
00:34:26.320
how until it happens and i'll be like oh that's awesome but when it does it will be perfect girl
00:34:29.820
it will be shining like beautiful like but no there are a couple things i'm like i don't know
00:34:35.100
how that will happen we'll figure it out it's okay and it will and it always will and it always
00:34:39.300
will i think for good people and gay people and people who are good and gay especially good and
00:34:43.980

00:41:56.720
this the time i leave right probably when they start identifying you at your job yeah but it
00:42:01.900

00:42:05.660
working at starbucks for like a year into my career oh wow okay period i don't know i know i
00:42:10.180

00:42:21.920
like before i really was like oh wow i keep you could like live off this oh yeah i like really
00:42:27.160

00:43:25.840
i was bored and me and my friends were like what if we just like made a kickball team okay and so
00:43:31.480
we made a kickball team and i was the team captain of said kickball team it was just a bunch of gays
00:43:36.680
and those who didn't know if they were gay or not because it was high school including i you know
00:43:41.100
so it was a bunch of gays yeah bye now gay later bye now gay later hello hello bye now gay later
00:43:48.660

actually i'm a liar girl i was lying it was fierce it was so fierce um but yeah i'm like me and my
00:44:01.800
friend we were just like we're gonna be the team captains and then i never won a singular game
00:44:06.700
no you didn't win at all no because i would only pick the fiercest divas and the fiercest divas
00:44:11.580
aren't winning kickball that's true it's tea that's true they're in the theater they're
00:44:16.160
clocked in somewhere and we were all in theater by the way like no one had did you guys play other
00:44:22.280
schools or did you just no each other oh no like each other it wasn't like this huge thing it was
00:44:27.040
just like this group of gay people half guy figuring it out whatever they them all of that
00:44:33.800
and like figuring out like every now and then i like pick a new diva on my team that was on the
00:44:38.760
other divas team it was so you guys just mixed up every time and then went into different teams
00:44:44.060
every time fierce like why did i have the time of my life why did i have like so much fun no take
00:44:51.460
me back take me back to the elementary field that we were playing in the elementary school field
00:44:56.900
like that's honestly really sweet it was i think more people should do stuff like that i know just
00:45:01.700
for the sake of it why not and my parents still thought i was a bad kid i wasn't drinking or
00:45:06.040
doing drugs i was playing kickball and they were like you're terrible with my other gay friends
00:45:10.040
my gays like hello my man joined a softball like rec league well when i first started dating him
00:45:18.280
he was like actively in an adult softball league oh my god we're like in our early 20s and i was
00:45:23.400
like you like play for real and he was like oh yeah like i i it's me and like my friends and
00:45:29.120
they play other teams like locally okay so they joined like a local softball thing which i think
00:45:34.640
is like fun i was like oh that's cool and he's like would you want to come watch me and i was
00:45:38.740
like i mean i guess but i was kind of like i hate watching baseball but like yeah i guess right and
00:45:44.180
i did go a few times with him because he was on one like much later when we were when i was kind
00:45:50.100
of starting to do this for a living and i remember every game we went to it was like the other team
00:45:56.820
was just a gang of dads that like hate their wives oh of course and they can't wait to drink
00:46:02.980
on a weeknight like they're like fuck it and then they're all they all go and they like take it so
00:46:07.640
seriously wow nobody's in shape nobody's athletic and they're all just hitting like bombs into the
00:46:13.860
outfield and i remember watching i'm like this is the most pointless like this feels like the most
00:46:18.660
like like honey you know i have softball that night but like such the biggest excuse for all
00:46:24.700
of them to leave home right and just get to go and like fuck around and be like i hate my fucking
00:46:29.180
wife bro i'm like oh you hate your wife me too like we were pondering our sexuality
00:46:33.920
you hate your wives right you guys are playing sports in a god-fearing way you could be pondering
00:46:38.980
your sexuality too they probably should i know they should do that a little bit more probably
00:46:44.360
huh well yeah maybe a little bit more of the world's problems would be figured out if they
00:46:48.600
just realized their guy yeah that's like uh i saw i think it was the drag queen and she was on
00:46:53.300
trixie and katya's podcast and she was saying um a lot of the world's problems would be solved
00:46:58.940
if men just put a finger up their butt yes a little bit sooner period like if you guys just
00:47:03.440
put fingers over your butt a lot of your problems would be solved because then you would realize
00:47:06.000
you're not so angry some of you would realize you're gay it's like a real like win-win everybody
00:47:09.720
wins and i believe in that i fully believe in that like that's my bible okay those are my
00:47:15.680
