00:00:20.640
Hey everyone and welcome back to another episode of the Comment Section Show.
00:00:24.840
And today I'm here with the one, the only, Sarah Baska.
00:00:32.160
There's a bunch of people here, but they can't make noise.
00:00:50.320
I literally was telling Sarah right before this,
00:00:57.420
Yeah, since you were working at the trampoline park.
00:01:08.920
You were to wear your glasses and film you're in your car?
00:01:20.820
Well, like I saw yours too, but you just kind of popped out of nowhere for me on my For You
00:01:26.380
I think I'm watching this like crazy man, cringy, saying the worst shit and then, ha ha!
00:01:40.140
Immediately just like scrolled through all your stuff, was giggling with you, followed you.
00:01:50.100
I was going to keep it cool and be like, yeah, I just recently found you.
00:02:08.620
That's why I thought you were so funny, because I relate.
00:02:17.340
I could pick them out of a lineup, which one's going to break away from the pack.
00:02:45.040
It was, I think more so for me, it was strictly based off looks.
00:02:55.500
No, I'm talking like X Factor, like, mop on the head.
00:03:19.800
And I, in my, the first video I ever saw of them was, I think, it was on YouTube, but
00:03:23.900
I think it was like a acoustic version of them singing one thing.
00:03:29.480
And I remember actively not looking them up because I was like, I can't handle this kind
00:03:36.620
The hyper fixation was going to kick in and I wasn't going to be able to let it go.
00:03:40.320
Like, I'm still not over my Justin Bieber phase.
00:03:46.320
I, I, I liked him, but I wasn't like feral about him.
00:03:51.800
When the Jonas Brothers was out, I was, like, truly, like, pussy in the wind.
00:04:01.760
My transition over to Justin Bieber was so intense.
00:04:10.120
And I actually have kind of a funny story about that.
00:04:14.260
So, my best friend, Katie, when we were, like, in fifth grade.
00:04:21.020
And I was so jealous because I wanted a hot older cousin.
00:04:39.380
I would like to just, like, have one of my own.
00:05:07.340
So I'm scrolling on Bebo because I'm not allowed to have a MySpace.
00:05:32.500
And it said, Justin B sings With You by Chris Brown.
00:05:41.360
He was in front of, y'all know what I'm talking about.
00:06:12.380
And then what if you pulled off your face and you were Scooter Brown underneath?
00:06:32.180
No, I'm fully L.A. Reid in this fourth grade class.
00:06:38.500
Yeah, and like, I like, would message Katie on AIM pretending to be Justin Baska.
00:06:43.640
And then she went on, she was watching MTV one day.
00:06:54.360
And I was like, I like fully catfished her for so long.
00:07:01.280
You start gaslighting her and say, I never said that to you.
00:07:04.540
What would make you think that that man's related to me because I told you that?
00:07:32.800
We both just became so obsessed with Justin Bieber together now that he's not my cousin.
00:07:41.560
Now that I don't have to have a crush on my cousin.
00:07:43.860
You're like, I was just having a silly goofy time.
00:07:49.380
My transition from to the Jonas Brothers, because that's where I was my most feral, I would argue.
00:07:54.600
Before that, I was obsessed with My Chemical Romance.
00:07:59.700
Like, they were my very first concert when I was 10.
00:08:04.140
My mom took me with my sister and my other friend.
00:08:07.120
And my friend didn't like that music literally at all.
00:08:23.060
I'm like acting like I understand the nuance of the lyrics at all.
00:08:35.680
It's me pretending to be different liking them.
00:08:38.420
I literally went from them to immediately the Jonas Brothers.
00:08:52.820
I literally went from there one extreme to the other.
00:08:55.440
Cause like in my character romance, when I was 10 years old, I was convinced I was going
00:09:01.620
If you ever see this Ray Toro in my line, just kidding.
00:09:05.920
I was going to say I'm taking unless, unless do you like have a wife husband?
00:09:13.020
But he was like 35 and I was 10 and I was like, I'm going to marry this dude.
00:09:21.340
Cause even when I liked Nick Jonas, it wasn't nearly as like convincing to me that I was going
00:09:26.860
to marry him that if I married Ray Toro from Michael Gromach.
00:09:31.960
So I was like, listen, I know a man when I see it.
00:09:36.560
Maybe it's cause I knew Nick was a Virgo and I just can't feature.
00:09:44.520
So I bet you anything in like 12 year old me's body.
00:10:03.100
Literally at all, I was like, yeah, that's going to be my wife.
00:10:35.200
And she's like, what is it about me that attracts Leos?
00:11:14.240
So that's like the only thing that keeps me, I think.
00:11:18.500
Like my Gemini moon is just such like an intellectual feeling based.
00:11:43.460
Every single man that I've had a crush on has been a fire sign.
00:11:58.840
But that was like my biggest like, I'd say like feral energy was towards them.
00:12:10.220
Like literally like the most fangirl shit ever.
00:12:17.040
Once they started kind of dying out a little bit.
00:13:03.560
You're not allowed to go in there until you're married.
00:13:23.440
Girl this is why my mom said to never come here.
00:13:35.340
My carromas to the Jonas Brothers to One Direction.
00:14:02.660
I went to every premiere of like a new episode or like one of those specials that they would have.
00:14:13.480
If you're not a Spongebob girl like I don't mess with the energy.
00:14:22.180
I did a Spongebob reference in front of this guy that I liked and he was like.
00:14:45.680
Because he said something like aww and I was like aww let me just play my tiny violin and
00:14:53.260
Nothing hurts quite like a missed joke like that.
00:15:11.740
Every April Fool's I say happy April Fool's you little sausage.
00:15:33.420
So it started from there and just gradually grew.
00:15:46.420
Then I got really into Fall Out Boy in fourth grade.
00:17:27.120
And also we're going to talk about how men treat fangirls.
00:17:38.540
And don't know what we like to do here on the comment section.
00:17:48.500
And then we read comments from the comment section.
00:17:53.020
I'm just going to give you a little breakdown of it.
00:17:55.300
But basically it's a girl explaining how being a fangirl could benefit artists.
00:17:59.680
Like I'm assuming we're just talking musicians.
00:18:01.940
Because they can provide knowledge of the fan base.
00:18:04.720
And eventually this knowledge could land you a job in the music industry.
00:19:08.820
They were all females loving the same thing for me.
00:19:19.580
They probably feel really out of place in their home life.
00:19:26.680
And then they just want to find other people that understand.
00:20:14.040
I think that's the only thing I've never branched into is K-pop.
00:20:30.740
I'm going to go be a contributing member of society now.
00:20:50.020
And then I became roommates with one of my really good friends who I met through One Direction.
00:20:59.300
So I met her through Vine and we became really good friends and then we became roommates.
00:21:08.260
Only because all of the 1D fan accounts that I followed all turned into BTS accounts.
00:21:30.500
And she just really sat me down and she was like, I know you're not going to understand
00:21:36.320
anything that they're saying, but just watch how they move.
00:21:41.880
And like she put the subtitles on and they were actually like really deep and beautiful.
00:21:48.000
And she's over here like crying and I'm like, wait, I get it.
00:21:54.960
I think I'm just at a phase in my life where I just can't fully commit anymore.
00:22:02.380
I've punched my card quite a few times over my lifetime.
00:22:09.840
I'm like, if I get into this, I'm not going to be able to stop.
00:22:12.780
So like, it's best that I just not admire from afar.
00:22:16.560
How does your boyfriend feel about the fan girl shit?
00:22:21.340
Did you know him when you were in the thick of it?
00:22:24.340
I mean, well, I mean, we went to high school together, but like we were not obviously dating
00:22:28.900
So he didn't know about like my hyper fixation, I don't think.
00:22:38.280
But I know he finds it fascinating more than anything.
00:22:43.080
Because he's like, that's crazy that like women will like cry or like feel this like
00:22:51.060
But I think that now that I do this for a living, it makes more sense to him because
00:22:58.220
But I had told them about my fangirl phase and he was like, that's crazy.
00:23:06.260
Like he has no like dying devotion to anyone or anything like that's related to like pop
00:23:17.760
But honestly, the only thing he like genuinely is such a big fan of is Guy Fieri.
00:23:23.420
Like if you ever want to come on my show, please tell me.
00:23:26.860
He hasn't come to all 20 of my episodes, but he'll be here.
00:23:32.720
Next week, I go on your YouTube channel to see Guy Fieri.
00:23:36.560
He literally told, he dead ass told me like, he's the only celebrity.
00:23:42.960
He's like, he's the only celebrity that I would like need to ask for a picture.
00:23:49.100
Because other than that, he's unfazed by literally anybody.
00:23:52.280
Is it like kind of as a joke or does he respect his craft?
00:23:57.520
Or he thinks he's the smartest, like most, like charismatic, genuine person.
00:24:11.680
I mean, he doesn't mind it, but he's just fascinated by he finds him so like energetic and fun.
00:24:17.320
And he just like, he literally told me, he's like, have you ever watched Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives?
00:24:28.500
He like says it like, yo, he says it on the show.
00:24:36.920
He literally signed up for like the Food Network app to show me that show.
00:24:49.360
I can't like, since I blew up on TikTok, like I've had like several famous people follow me or whatever.
00:24:56.180
But then Guy Fieri liked my comment once and it became the top comment on one of his videos.
00:25:00.440
And he was like, please take a picture of it and send it to me.
00:25:16.280
For the last five years I've been dating this dude, every year on his birthday, I Google Guy Fieri tour.
00:25:21.300
Cause I want to see if he's going on tour so I can take him.
00:25:24.280
I've literally, I bought shit from his merch store.
00:25:28.000
I've bought his like t-shirts, stickers, all kinds of shit.
00:25:32.480
Every time I get to him, he's like, this is the coolest thing I've ever gotten.
00:25:38.940
I've asked him, I'm like, have you ever like fangirled or anyone?
00:25:41.580
And then that was the only guy he could tell me.
00:25:43.240
He was like, that's probably the only guy I would be like, wow.
00:26:07.980
I think he's from Oakland, if I'm not mistaken.
00:26:12.720
He's just, I know, I know way too much about Guy Fieri because of my boyfriend, like he's
00:26:19.980
I go to your house, there's just books, books on books, your whole bookshelf is filled.
00:26:24.880
My sister went through a phase where she was making like coasters and stuff.
00:26:30.280
Like, what's, I forget the word for it when you make it, but she.
00:26:42.680
So she went through a resin phase, like during the pandemic, you know, everyone's teaching
00:26:47.200
I was trying to tell herself how to do a bunch of shit, but she made resin.
00:26:50.120
And for like my boyfriend's birthday, she made him like once with Guy Fieri inside them.
00:27:01.860
No, it was like, I think like cutouts, like she cut it out and then put it in there and
00:27:10.480
Like I'll send pictures of them so you guys can see them.
00:27:13.540
But yeah, that's just, he's a fangirl at heart too.
00:27:23.300
Is that kind of what made you be like, yeah, I like you.
00:27:33.600
I always tell people enemies to lovers arc more so.
00:27:41.580
And then we dated, I think, right after I graduated from college.
00:27:44.460
Then we started dating, I think like three months after that.
00:28:01.200
And I love watching all the men that hate you see him.
00:28:17.760
I can't even imagine how great that feels for you.
00:28:39.680
Is anyone going to debate rather that this is just fangirl or stalkerish?
00:28:44.980
This kind of freaks me out, but I'm happy for you.
00:28:57.080
I think that's men convincing you that it's being a stalker.
00:29:01.920
Like, I think that that's perfect because they know how the industry works.
00:29:09.440
And they know what the girls are going to like.
00:29:12.840
It's going to foster the career and yours as well because you're going to bring good ideas.
00:29:16.760
You're going to bring great ideas and you're going to keep the money flowing in.
00:29:20.900
Well, and I also think, too, like diehard fans of someone like Harry Styles, for example,
00:29:25.500
like if they started working for him, it's more so they just want to see him do well more than anything.
00:29:31.380
I think a lot of times men equate it to like sexual attraction, which I'm not saying isn't there,
00:29:43.060
That they like, they're always, they see them as sexual objects.
00:29:45.980
Whereas like women a lot of times are like, I just want to see him be happy.
00:29:50.120
Which is what keeps you famous if we're being real.
00:30:00.560
Like, yeah, it's there, but it's not the driving force behind the dedication.
00:30:05.820
I feel like once you kind of like feel the energy and like know them as a person,
00:30:11.960
Like there's an initial, like a, there's like a physical attraction initially, but then
00:30:17.980
to get you to buy shit, it's got to be more than that.
00:30:21.580
Like if I'm going to buy a t-shirt with your face on it, I got to like more than what you
00:30:26.940
It's like this, like you ever talked to a fangirl?
00:30:29.100
They're like, I just know they're such a good person and they work really hard and they're
00:30:38.100
It's inspiring because a lot of the time fangirls can look at them and be like, oh, these are
00:30:51.880
And also the guys that get so weird about fangirls, especially like with musicians.
00:30:57.560
They're just mad because they can't sing and they can't hit a high C.
00:31:07.700
I'm like, you're just mad because he's, he's like raking in bitches.
00:31:11.200
Like truly, like he's just like a vacuum, just sucking them all in.
00:31:18.740
Cause I'm the only person who is so lucky as to get this shit ass content.
00:31:35.100
But every time I go in there, I'll see ones that are like trends when they're like, um,
00:31:40.220
in case you ever feel it's gym bros, like the worst dudes in the world.
00:31:43.640
They're like, um, but my biggest fans, uh, they're literally like, if you ever feel bad
00:31:49.160
about yourself, um, just remember that girls, a lot of girls like this dude.
00:31:54.320
And it's literally that picture of Harry Styles.
00:31:56.260
You remember his Halloween shows when he dressed up as Dorothy?
00:32:02.100
And I'm like, is this supposed to be like a, and then it cuts to them and they're like
00:32:15.900
It's them flexing in a mirror, like with the saturation all the way down, the like brightness
00:32:22.660
And it's like some terrible dubstep song on the end.
00:32:26.280
He is so mad that he cannot sing or dance or draw a crowd of thousands of people or just
00:32:32.880
get anyone to talk to him or his mom or dentist, like anyone with a vagina.
00:32:43.220
Like literally I'm, I genuinely see that and I'm like, you can't be serious, bro.
00:32:52.100
Like in its purest form is you being like all these bitches, like this guy.
00:33:03.740
That's why I was like, don't you think I literally, I talked about this with Brittany
00:33:06.560
when she was here too, but I saw one also that was like, uh, girls are like losing
00:33:10.900
it over men like Pete Davidson and Jack Harlow and y'all are still going to the gym at four
00:33:18.080
Like we need to come up with another plan of action because this isn't working anymore.
00:33:27.820
But like fangirls are the problem when you be making shit like that.
00:33:31.020
I'm like, what's the difference between that and like you jerking it to Joe Rogan?
00:33:35.880
Jerking it to yourself in the mirror after you're done working out.
00:33:38.960
What's the difference between that and you watching like Jordan Peterson?
00:33:42.540
So is, is someone who watches Joe Rogan like a turnoff?
00:33:49.320
It's one thing if they're just like, I'm interested to see what this dude has to say.
00:33:53.040
It's another if they're like, he's the greatest podcast host in the world.
00:34:00.000
I'm all the men that was telling you to eat like horse tranquilizers to get rid of it.
00:34:14.700
I literally made fun of Joe Rogan one time in one of my videos.
00:34:41.900
You and I are operating from ground zero, bitch.
00:34:50.620
I always think that's why when they're like, oh, it's just creepy.
00:34:57.720
If you want to talk about what's weird, that's pretty weird.
00:35:00.220
And all he does is sit there and just like talk.
00:35:04.280
I literally said, just because you're loud doesn't mean you're right.
00:35:09.420
It doesn't make me the best podcast host in the world.
00:35:15.160
I mean, I think he actually is number one, but more so him being a terrible person is what I'm talking about.
00:35:22.560
That comparison, because like every guy that I've talked to, because I just got out of a three year relationship.
00:35:32.800
And then there's there would be like a long period of time, like a long car ride we would go on.
00:35:38.640
And I'm like, can we just open the car and roll out?
00:35:48.700
People sometimes now people literally use me as a litmus.
00:35:57.920
And then I've literally had girls like someone last night commented on one of my TikToks and said, my soon to be ex-husband used to hate when I watched you.
00:36:10.260
I literally have girls putting me in their Tinder bios.
00:36:23.900
Like my girls, like my girls are like, if you don't like her, swipe left on me.
00:36:32.420
They're like, if you like this fat bitch, then don't even bother.
00:36:36.380
You swipe and like you're in one of the pictures.
00:36:40.720
No, you scroll down and right below it, it says five, six.
00:36:52.820
And I bet they appreciate that so much because you are one of the first people that I've seen
00:37:02.660
And you're like really out here just trying to wake a lot of these girls up.
00:37:06.820
Like, your boyfriends suck and they're manipulative.
00:37:13.580
Like, oh my God, you're dating someone like this?
00:37:16.400
Yeah, sometimes girls message me like when I do Q&As every now and then.
00:37:21.000
They'll ask me like, my boyfriend likes when I send him pictures of what I wear before
00:37:48.800
They send you a picture of boxes of them moving out.
00:37:52.780
I've had several women tell me they left active relationships they were in after watching
00:38:01.820
Yeah, and I'm telling you, I'm like, raise that bar, babe.
00:38:08.280
Because you do it in such like a cutthroat way.
00:38:11.580
And you have such like a beautiful delivery, too.
00:38:14.240
It's just so, you make it just so funny and enjoyable.
00:38:18.120
And like, there's no way that a guy can watch that.
00:38:24.520
Like, everything you're saying is very psychologically driven.
00:38:31.520
And their only comeback is just like, oh, so you're body shaming me?
00:38:39.660
And I'm like, that's all you got from that, huh?
00:38:41.720
I said, the ear only hears what it wants to hear.
00:38:44.940
You didn't hear anything else I said because you're upset that you're 5'2".
00:38:51.300
I can't control whether or not you work at Circle K.
00:38:57.240
Yeah, you work at Sonic and somehow that's on me?
00:39:01.140
That's on me that you have to wear rollerblades to work?
00:39:09.440
You work at the bowling alley and that's not my fault.
00:39:22.540
So I think, again, too, back to Harry Styles, like, that's a huge jealousy thing, too,
00:39:37.540
And he balanced and perfected the two energies of masculine and feminine energy.
00:39:46.780
And a lot of guys do not know how to tap into their feminine side.
00:39:50.740
Because they were taught that they could never do that.
00:39:57.160
And they're like, you're telling me that these muscle bob buff pants arms are not enough
00:40:05.720
You're telling me I've got to be nice to you, too?
00:40:33.040
That's what I always, and that's why I'm saying, like, when men like that say shit
00:40:45.860
Were you like this with, like, your actual homegirls in real life?
00:40:59.020
Like, I would literally tell them he's not good.
00:41:02.820
And I would tell them exactly why, and they're like, well.
00:41:05.280
And sometimes my girls would tell me, like, I feel like you're too picky.
00:41:08.320
And I'm like, I don't want to date someone who doesn't know that the word, like, unfunny
00:41:18.200
Like, I don't want to date someone that thinks, what's the word?
00:41:24.000
And someone who actively refers to women as females or bitches.
00:41:35.380
I don't want to hear one more thing you have to say.
00:41:39.140
I always say, I'm like, I don't have to hear it.
00:41:40.940
And sometimes people are like, why don't you talk to, why don't you have, like, an open
00:41:52.440
And also, like, a lot of the things with my friends, too, because I'm the same way, because
00:41:58.800
They're always like, but his trauma, like, this is why he's like this.
00:42:12.400
Are you getting paid the amount of money that a therapist would make off him?
00:42:28.400
Honestly, men like that who are aware of stuff like that are more dangerous to me than, like,
00:42:34.500
Because a meathead just is like, emotions, never heard of them, except anger, but that's
00:42:39.660
But, like, men who are emotionally cognizant and still like that, infinitely worse.
00:42:44.280
Ooh, where they just go to therapy to learn how to be manipulative?
00:42:54.740
Like, learning the, it's like, keep your enemies close.
00:42:58.140
My sister's a therapist and she refuses to have male clients for that reason.
00:43:07.340
So, for this next video, we have, again, a breakdown of it.
00:43:11.900
It's a girl calling out that guys make fun of girls for always being a big fangirl, which
00:43:22.880
And there's, like, a bunch of pictures she's putting in there of men, like, absolutely losing
00:43:27.820
their marbles at, like, any sports game, which I've also said, too, is, like, hilarious
00:43:37.440
Like, literally, men, like, play fantasy football.
00:43:43.320
Like, they pretend to manage a football team and they want to talk about how we're nuts.
00:43:47.160
They play a game of spreadsheets and they're like, you girls are, you bitches are crazy.
00:43:53.040
And if you, like, are like, hey, bitch, shut up.
00:43:57.880
They, like, don't shower and stuff, like, during season and all that.
00:44:02.180
And if, God forbid, you're watching the game with a man.
00:44:14.640
I used to watch football with my dad all the time because he's a professional footballer.
00:44:23.260
No, but I used to watch it because he's the one who, like, taught me what it was.
00:44:27.400
And even him explaining it to me, now that I know the game, I'm still just like, why do they have
00:44:31.700
to pause every five seconds and, like, why is that enjoyable?
00:44:37.780
It's like, ooh, action for, like, three seconds and then stops.
00:44:43.780
It's like, ooh, tackling each other and then stops for two minutes.
00:44:47.620
And you know what's crazy about that, too, is, like, the men who absolutely, like, lose their minds.
00:44:56.820
Like, truly, they're, like, unintelligible because that's how much they love.
00:45:01.220
The game or the players, we both, our dads are both former professional football players, right?
00:45:10.400
Nine times out of ten, the men who act like that never at any point could have been a football player.
00:45:19.160
If no one's told you, I'm going to tell you, you don't have it.
00:45:23.660
You're never going to be a famous football player, ever.
00:45:32.980
But I can still, like, respectfully watch her and like her.
00:45:35.940
Yeah, and I'm not going to shit on people who don't like her.
00:45:38.880
Like, I mean, I'm going to be, I'm still going to like her, not out of, like, hatred or jealousy.
00:45:45.040
I'm like, if I could pick a talent, I would pick singing, and I would want to sing like her because that would be wild.
00:45:55.100

00:46:52.560
Like, I literally laugh because of the dudes who take that shit way too serious.
00:46:58.220
I've never, never been lit up or attempted to be lit up so much by dudes when I said, like, what's crazy is when they recount games to you.
00:47:09.400
Like, think about the worst dude you know who loves football or basketball, baseball, whatever.
00:47:18.160
But they literally, like, let's say they lost a game and they're upset.
00:47:21.960
When they're recounting it to you, they're going, this is what we need to do.
00:47:43.740
And I always think, what are the odds you know and Pete Carroll doesn't?
00:47:57.860
Like, imagine if me and you were at a concert and one of the people performing just didn't
00:48:19.820
It's like, where does that God complex come for them?
00:48:29.560
That's, talk about being, like, completely wrapped up in a fantasy.
00:48:34.580
Like, it's believing that your opinion matters.
00:48:43.120
And you just think, like, it's the same dude who's like, if I didn't tear my ACL in high
00:48:48.840
The odds are, listen, if you had the two best knees in the world, it wouldn't have been you.
00:48:54.480
I literally, sometimes I'll tell dudes, I'm like, me in this outfit, I would have a higher
00:49:02.620
Than if you prepared for a year, me in this outfit right now, I'd have a higher likelihood.
00:49:11.420
Dude, me doing flat, like, powder puff football in high school, all of the guys on the football
00:49:18.340
team that were, like, our coaches were like, oh shit, Basco.
00:49:35.500
It's so, like, it's the ultimate, I think, version of being a fangirl is, like, being,
00:49:40.580
like, so addicted to sports and, like, watching it and all of that.
00:49:46.840
And, like, going to, like, the high school football team.
00:50:00.480
But then, also, the high school football players, like, God bless them.
00:50:04.920
But, like, they walk out on that field and they're just, like, oh, yeah.
00:50:13.320
Sometimes I think they're, like, it's just, like, I don't know.
00:50:16.720
I just feel like maybe you're not surrounded by people who don't lie to you all the time.
00:50:20.820
Because, like, let me tell you something about my family.
00:50:25.520
If I wanted to sing and I sang and my mom was, like, that sounded like shit.
00:50:37.180
You send her a video of you singing and she auto-tunes it for you.
00:50:48.300
Like, that's literally, I'm telling you, the realest people.
00:50:58.160
But sometimes, self, I always think, like, self-confidence is important.
00:51:01.780
But self-awareness is pivotal to, like, exist in the world.
00:51:11.020
Like, I'm okay knowing that there's only one Beyonce.
00:51:22.640
I don't need to be her because she's, she's one in a million.
00:51:28.300
Like, like, some of these dudes are literally, like, convinced.
00:51:32.740
Like, literally, if they were in the crowd, right?
00:51:35.160
Like, let's say they're, let's say they're in the crowd and Tom Brady gets hurt.
00:51:53.700
Yeah, they're literally, like, if he put me in there, you would be dead.
00:51:58.480
Like, I literally think, like, you're 5'6", bro.
00:52:08.140
Like, they genuinely think, like, if I was in the crowd and he looked at me and he brought
00:52:12.460
me down there, like, I could have, like, I could have made that catch.
00:52:18.060
Like, literally, that could, I could have done it.
00:52:20.020
And when a play goes wrong, they're like, oh, what are you doing, man?
00:52:43.460
They're just, like, a different breed of athleticism.
00:52:47.700
Like, it's something you could never touch, truly.
00:52:50.580
And being, like, the girlfriend of someone like that, I can't even.
00:53:03.100
Can we talk about something other than football, please?
00:53:13.560
That's why I think, like, the feral energy they have towards professional sports is, in
00:53:19.840
me opinion, much worse than, like, women who love Harry Styles or, like, women who love
00:53:35.120
But then I also think, too, like, I've talked about this before.
00:53:37.520
But, like, when I worked in sports, I was, like, I was hit on by professional athletes.
00:53:42.560
I told one of those stories on my TikTok well before I, like, blew up.
00:53:45.680
And the amount of dudes that were, like, he would never, he would never, listen, you're
00:53:58.200
When I told that story in person, most men, like, they geek out.
00:54:01.480
Like, they literally freak out like it was them.
00:54:04.580
But, like, it's literally because they're so obsessed with this person, and he's a huge
00:54:13.240
Like, they can't tell if they want to be him or they want to be me.
00:54:23.760
And you're like, are you going to make fun of me because I have a Harry Styles pillowcase?
00:54:32.080
I genuinely have a Jonas Brothers Christmas sweater in my closet.
00:54:38.460
In, like, the hot sun at the Rams stadium because you're shirtless and you painted Rams on you.
00:54:43.960
You look like Larry the Lobster with his sunscreen on your nose on the hot sun.
00:54:48.220
Literally, you, like, love Aaron Donald so much who plays for the Rams, and you're literally,
00:55:10.780
And they get so drunk at those games and, like, wild out.
00:55:13.820
And then after the games, if they win, they go out on the streets and riot.
00:55:24.040
That's why, like, I love when you compare, like, men who love sports like that to, like,
00:55:41.420
So, the comments on this video, it says, the lone clothing, blankets, phone cases, car
00:55:49.800
stickers, furniture, et cetera, of their fave teams, but a girl has a 1D poster who has
00:56:00.460
When men are like that, they literally make it their whole personality.
00:56:05.240
Like, have you ever seen, like, a dad that, like, you could tell that he's a big, like,
00:56:09.220
Dolphins fan because his family gets him Dolphins shit every year for, like, Father's
00:56:20.920
That's what I do with my dad sometimes for the Broncos.
00:56:30.420
And it's so funny, too, because I had a friend tell me one time that she invited this guy over
00:56:36.880
And he saw, like, I don't know if it was a Harry poster.
00:56:42.200
And he made her take it down because he didn't want him, like, looking at that.
00:56:46.660
Like, he didn't want to see him while they were hooking up.
00:56:59.000
He's not actually looking at you unless you're, like, on something.
00:57:03.140
And meanwhile, he's, like, a big Tom Brady fan or something.
00:57:06.920
I said that once, and it took my very first video to, like, ever, like, go viral viral
00:57:10.800
was I made a list of very specific red flags in men.
00:57:16.540
So one of them was, like, I said, like, if Wolf of Wall Street is his favorite movie,
00:57:21.700
you know what I mean, if he's a big Joe Rogan fan.
00:57:24.220
But one of them I said was if he loves Tom Brady.
00:57:27.660
And I said, and I'm not talking a Patriots fan or a Bucks fan.
00:57:34.700
Like, to the point where he would kiss him on the lips if he had the chance.
00:57:44.220
And literally so many women were, like, the Tom Brady thing is crazy accurate.
00:58:07.660
This next comment says, and then they also gatekeep being a fan of sports.
00:58:13.540
They say they want a girl that's, like, a pick-me-girl.
00:58:16.180
They describe, like, girl likes football and beer.
00:58:26.020
She also doesn't like to work, but also works for me and pays for me.
00:58:30.660
And I don't think that's asking for much at the end of the day.
00:58:34.220
And then you tell him, like, oh, I enjoy sports.
00:58:45.240
Actually, name the last three Heisman Trophy winners.
00:58:54.680
They grill you like you're on death row or something.
00:58:57.380
And then, God forbid, you get a sentence in and you're like, um, I kind of like Niall
00:59:17.220
Meanwhile, they're wearing the last name of another full grown man on their back.
00:59:35.680
It tears me open watching that happen in front of my eyes.
00:59:39.280
It's so funny, too, because like my dad and my boyfriend don't care about football.
00:59:51.940
But like when you ask, like that's the first thing like bro kind of dudes ask full grown
01:00:00.060
And my dad always goes, I don't really have one, to be honest.
01:00:07.780
Whenever I bring a guy over to meet my dad, they're like, oh, my God, you were like playing.
01:00:36.960
No, literally, my dad, sometimes they'll ask my dad, did you play?
01:00:59.280
But, like, honestly, I played with, do you know, like, Jared Goff?
01:01:02.280
Like, I did play the same peewee team as him at one point.
01:01:06.560
So, like, technically, like, at the trajectory he was on, like, would I have been there?
01:01:13.380
That exact conversation I've listened to, I can't even tell you how many times.
01:01:23.640
He's like, okay, so that was, I mean, I can give you, I don't need the change.
01:01:42.460
That's why, like, I literally can't handle the, the disconnect is so funny to me.
01:01:46.720
The cognitive dissonance between the two, like, they're like, they're nowhere near the same.
01:01:52.160
But, like, still loves football, because it's like, oh, nostalgic.
01:01:59.060
But my dad just watches it, and when it's over, he talks to his family.
01:02:08.800
And will listen to me when I talk about Harry Styles.
01:02:14.380
And then I explain it to him, he goes, oh, does he do something?
01:02:19.040
And I'm like, let me tell you the tea on Harry Styles.
01:02:21.200
And my dad's like, I'm going to tell my dad about the Liam Payne drama.
01:02:27.840
And he'll listen to the whole thing, and he'll be like, wow.
01:02:34.520
He, like, played football, and then thought to himself, why do I have so much aggression,
01:02:39.340
and why do I need to play football to let this out?
01:02:45.660
And then became a therapist for anger management.
01:02:52.540
Pisces men get a bad rap, but my dad's a really good Pisces women.
01:03:11.800
People are like, you make fun of bald people, and I'm like, my dad's bald.
01:03:15.800
I know a bald person, so I can't be mean to them.
01:03:28.700
He said, on behalf of all bald people, I can make fun of you.
01:03:39.180
He would love to come watch, but being on camera, no.
01:03:42.020
Meanwhile, my dad wants to start his own YouTube channel.
01:03:52.140
I think that's going to do it for our episode today.
01:03:54.800
Thank you so much to my guest, Sarah Baska, the one and only, the OG fangirl.
01:03:59.560
If you had to say anything to our fellow fangirls out there, what would it be?
01:04:03.380
Like, just keep loving and learning and being passionate and just do it because you want
01:04:12.440
to do it and ignore everyone who thinks it's cringy.
01:04:17.640
There's some football players that are, I mean, football fans that, you know.
01:04:37.380
If you really think about it, men like that are terrible, like the ones we're making fun
01:04:40.940
of, are going to make fun of you no matter what you like.
01:04:44.180

01:04:49.860
If you're like super into Jenga, like they'll make fun of you for that.
01:04:53.260
Yeah, it's no truly like if you were super into just collecting mugs, like they would
01:05:02.880
They're going to make fun of you no matter what.
01:05:30.240
Yeah, we have the same not bald, but kind of bald dad.
