00:02:53.920 no idea i mean i always think about you know having to host a podcast being a host yeah asking
00:02:59.240 other people questions yeah i don't know if i could do it it's you know what i mean yeah truly
00:03:03.920 like a therapist to other people right so i mean it's wild that i you know to not have known that
00:03:09.600 that's what you were going through yeah exactly that's why i said we spiritually connected at
00:03:13.240 that point wow and i haven't i just haven't got a chance to tell you i've seen you a million times
00:03:16.860 since then and i just haven't got a chance to tell you oh my god figured on camera with the
00:03:20.560 lights was the best time to do it that's an intense intense yeah intense morning i'm so

00:03:33.160 past it but i just wanted to tell you how much i appreciated you that day because it really brought
00:03:36.940 a lot of joy to me and i needed it that day wow and you sensed it about me without even
00:03:41.180 knowing spiritual connection i you know what's wild i don't know if i remember even saying that
00:03:46.940 because what if nothing was wrong and you're like what do you mean sad energy
00:03:53.060 oh what are you talking about like that and i i distinctly remember because i was like that's
00:03:58.420 crazy that she said that like it was just so like it was so it felt so like fate wow yeah
00:04:05.240 spiritual connection spiritual and that means a lot to me i listen to the universe when it talks
00:04:09.080 to me felt like the universe was talking me through you that day i feel like a lot of people
00:04:12.920 probably feel like they have a spiritual connection with you but i you know i went home that day and i
00:04:18.640 was like to my husband i was like i mean i feel like we're friends we're friends right i mean i
00:04:24.740 have to be careful because i sometimes i call people i'm like this is my best friend and then
00:04:29.500 i'll find out that you know i didn't run it by them right and then i'll hear them in an interview
00:04:34.940 call someone else their best friend and i'm like oh right oh yeah that's true we only met like once
00:04:40.400 i just got carried away you're just so emotionally connective a lot of people were saying sometimes
00:04:46.440 that they couldn't tell our voices apart right at one point during the i read the comments i was in
00:04:52.120 the comments and they're like oh my god such like a sisterly bond exactly they kind of sound even
00:04:57.680 similar is kind of the right note that you know i saw we got yeah i did see that note too yeah
00:05:04.780 well also speaking of your husband when we were both at a game night right um a while ago like
00:05:11.500 he came up to me and was like hey i just want to say like um i loved your episode with osco like

00:05:21.260 and just like thank you for being so wonderful like that was i thought the episode was great
00:05:24.900 i was like that's so sweet i know thank you i've just been plotting ways to yeah reconnect whether
00:05:30.840 it's like you know this shoe yes let's talk about the shoe tell me about the shoe i'm like the the
00:05:37.320 face of bringing back one of uggs apparently it's so it's ugg without an s yes we all call it uggs
00:05:43.680 but they're like it's ugg yeah singular singular oh okay all right uh so but i you know ugg brought
00:05:52.520 back this uh shoe from 2019 yes and i'm i'm like the face of it so they were like you can choose
00:05:58.180 10 friends to send it to and so yeah i was very happy and i was one of the lucky ones i won the
00:06:04.660 sweepstakes oh my god and it's killer shoe and i told you this too you had no way of knowing that
00:06:10.780 when you asked me right but that was my favorite uggs slipper when i and i got them in 2020 and
00:06:15.840 then they discontinued them you just now they're back you're connecting to me in so many ways 0.54
00:06:20.120 you need to stop i'm getting scared i don't know you're like you're a witch you're yes yes you are
00:06:26.180 a witch that's true i'm so happy yeah just little ways you know i'm still like kind of learning how 0.95
00:06:30.960 to make friends as an adult i feel like are you yeah i feel like you have a ton of friends i'm
00:06:35.580 very delayed in i think learning how to do this and so that's why i'm talking about it so much
00:06:41.060 you're very naturally like haha yes like and i'm like oh i hope um you know it's okay i was telling
00:06:47.660 everyone you're my friend already and I sent you a pair of shoes did you get it it's very you know
00:06:55.020 what I mean it's very because I swear like adult friendships is kind of a newer thing no that's
00:07:01.360 true you know what that's fair and also I think a lot more common than people are willing to talk
00:07:06.520 about I think sometimes people get nervous saying like it's but I think it's really a human thing
00:07:12.720 to be like I'm still learning how to make friends as an adult because that's true like I've gone
00:07:17.520 through like phases of friends so it's like when you're a teenager when you're in your early 20s
00:07:21.440 now that i'm in my 30s like there's there are like waves i feel like but you like with friends that
00:07:26.980 you find or yeah you stop hanging out with yeah yeah exactly so i feel like as an adult though i
00:07:33.120 feel like i'm also making friends now as an adult and like connecting to people in different ways
00:07:38.020 like now that i'm older and like fully realized like i know who i am that kind of thing it's
00:07:42.860 better yeah i think and as like you also age and like you and your fiancee also once they get you
00:07:50.260 get married and then some people will have kids and then so those friends you might not see
00:07:54.360 as much anymore exactly yeah you go through like those two but i think even with the kids thing
00:08:00.160 because i we don't want kids yeah do you want kids same my husband actually got a vasectomy
00:08:05.260 period maybe six months ago okay how'd it go uh well so we this proof that we shouldn't have kids
00:08:13.240 uh we show up and they're like okay so good he's in for the vasectomy today and the other procedure
00:08:19.440 and we're like what do you mean other procedure and they're like remember we talked about this
00:08:24.880 anyway it's scheduled both of you going hmm yeah and they go but we don't know anything he's like
00:08:32.500 well i'm here might as well so they put him under and apparently that's not normal for a vasectomy
00:08:38.460 really oh yeah because it's outpatient it's just yeah i mean yeah you know wow they put him under
00:08:43.620 okay they put him under and so i'm googling after they go he'll be out in two hours i said oh sure
00:08:50.220 and then so i go see my grandma to kill time during it yeah and i'm googling like how long
00:08:56.240 does a vasectomy uh take yeah 15 minutes 15 i said two two hours and i said do they put them
00:09:04.380 down he said no i said what what else are they doing to him he has no idea he's knocked out
00:09:10.620 he comes out with a bbl i was like yes exactly i was like was there some you know some beauty
00:09:18.120 enhancement or what apparently they he has this condition where um like one of the sacks like he
00:09:25.340 needed to drain there's like it's from a previous surgery uh previous injury oh so they actually
00:09:31.760 it's that's an intrusive surgery though that's what you go under for and that's crazy there was
00:09:38.100 like a whole whole surgery of like draining the sack happening it's even crazier that you guys
00:09:44.400 didn't remember that we had no original consultation we had we kept pushing it because of my tour and
00:09:50.460 stuff like that we're like oh well uh we need another two months we need another two months
00:09:55.120 and then so we eventually forgot that um what you were doing exactly we just remembered no more
00:10:01.540 babies no more babies that's all we wanted yeah and so so yeah after two he couldn't walk for like
00:10:07.280 three weeks it was suddenly an intense intense uh surgery that yeah healing from wow all because we
00:10:15.340 didn't want kids and then we listened to the advice of the doctor who was like well you might
00:10:20.440 as well try to do this um deep drainage thing too so but anyway yeah interesting long story short
00:10:27.280 we're also not gonna do kids yeah and so um good for you guys you know but there's a lot of friends
00:10:33.120 who have kids that they just hang out with each other yeah yeah and i like and i don't mind hanging
00:10:38.340 out with kids i just don't want any myself personally um and i think we came to that
00:10:44.240 conclusion i want to say like year three or four we were together it's been very freeing like
00:10:51.280 knowing yeah like that we're both on the same page well i wrote about it in my book that was
00:10:55.440 like the first time i ever talked about it publicly because i was mostly because i'm just
00:10:59.760 so i really don't like the commentary like when people chime in on whether or not having kids is
00:11:06.040 a good or a bad thing just not a big fan like because it's really no one's business except
00:11:10.840 like me and my partners so sometimes when i talk about it i'm like yeah no i'm just like
00:11:15.640 uninterested i just moved into a new house and when we were first touring it the realtor was
00:11:20.180 like and you know it's great neighborhood for kids like when you whenever you guys
00:11:23.140 eventually have kids and he was like you guys are gonna have kids right and we were oh yeah
00:11:26.820 we were both like no and then he seemed kind of like oh oh okay and i was like i don't know if
00:11:33.760 it's because we're we're we're young and like he's like well why wouldn't you like i don't know if
00:11:38.280 because we walked in with a baby stroller that was empty and we were like this would be a good 0.98
00:11:43.300 room for the right i had like a baby bjorn on and i was like what are you fucking talking about 0.98
00:11:47.620 but honestly i have two dogs and that's more than enough that is like those are my children 0.97
00:11:53.620 i birthed them they came from me yes so i think that's more than enough they're not going to live
00:11:59.280 at long enough but i would like to think if they could they would leave my legacy behind
00:12:03.140 if they could outlive me which i hope they do yeah it's in everyone's best interest that my
00:12:08.100 dogs outlive me and they yes that's right and and what they continue the podcast yes obviously
00:12:15.940 in my name a hundred percent yeah i know i should have named one of them drew jr like to carry my
00:12:22.200 my namesake i think they could that's up to them to change that's true yeah after after you pass
00:12:27.980 yeah yeah after you pass after they pull the plug on me then they can decide amongst themselves
00:12:33.080 if they want to take up that mantle yeah yeah also i do want to pivot to the last thing we
00:12:39.200 filmed together yes i had a blast with you oh i thought you were like really matching my energy
00:12:46.500 at that table oh wait you mean the podcast yeah the youtube thing the youtube thing that we filmed
00:12:53.020 oh yeah the the game the game are we not saying i just don't know if it's out yet that's true yeah
00:12:58.320 so i'm not sure that was so fun it was a lot of fun and i told everyone what your answer was to
00:13:04.880 the question of like if you could live in a movie what would it be and you said paddington too
00:13:10.340 that's right specifically yeah the bear in paddington too not the first one because he
00:13:15.400 was a different bear in that he hasn't fully realized yet what he could become you know what
00:13:21.720 i mean right that's true yeah like you know you did you two years ago might be a little different
00:13:26.240 than now right but yes paddington too yeah that's and you said because really it's a story you said
00:13:31.380 uncle buck yeah i did say uncle buck yeah so yes yeah both unhinged i know when they asked who would
00:13:37.760 we play i said uncle buck obviously yeah and then you said paddington me and my husband had a long
00:13:44.680 discussion um where i pretty much cornered him and lectured him after he he had the audacity
00:13:52.200 he said he thought Paddington was a teddy bear that came to life he's thinking of Corduroy
00:14:00.100 because I also thought for a second I thought when I saw the movie I thought it was about
00:14:05.400 Corduroy but then I realized I was like wait that's Paddington wait I don't know Corduroy
00:14:09.280 the character it's a storybook for children but it's a it's a teddy bear that comes to life
00:14:13.400 okay like Ted too yeah like Ted too or Winnie the Pooh yeah like it's kind of like that that's
00:14:18.860 right but i think corduroy was moving in the human world if i remember correctly okay so like
00:14:23.240 padding why um it was confusing for him because you know paddington in the movie isn't a real
00:14:30.060 bear too right right cgi cgi yeah but they're getting real crazy with cgi yes yeah he was like
00:14:36.460 you're real serious about this i like i like pulled down it was like i started giving a whole
00:14:41.500 like lesson i was like he's not a teddy bear come to like he is from dark peru this is where they
00:14:48.060 caught him this is where they first meet him you know he's a sun bear and they are from peru yeah
00:14:52.900 he's a sun bear that's right my man actually told me that because like i also for a second when i
00:14:57.740 was talking to him i was like was paddington a toy bear and then i go no no no he wasn't and
00:15:02.240 then he goes no i think he's a sun bear because he's weird about animals he knows so many animals
00:15:06.280 like i could ask him anything about an animal or an insect and he'll know yes i mean this is uh
00:15:10.920 this means you've seen part three of paddington to know that he's a sun bear oh no i just knew he
00:15:17.680 was a sun bear because my man told me oh okay i would i can't take credit for that but my sister
00:15:22.060 is a huge fan of the paddington series as well so when you said that i was like i told her she
00:15:26.480 said paddington too and she was like that's a great choice yeah it has like i think a hundred
00:15:32.920 percent on rotten tomatoes undeniably people have a hard time seeing anything wrong with that movie
00:15:39.640 yeah which is fair yeah what would you say that's your favorite movie or do you have a favorite
00:15:44.240 movie that's gosh that's one that i've watched many many times yeah yeah but i watched coco the
00:15:51.900 pixar movie i love coco i'll go back and re-watch that i love that one such a good one i know you
00:15:57.800 love disney yes like i love disney yes we gotta go together yes i i went recently for lunar new
00:16:04.540 year oh yeah that's right how was that got to meet mulan for the first time oh my gosh how was it
00:16:10.520 When you meet a hero like that, it was, I was like, I've said too much. 0.96
00:16:18.340 I think I said too much.
00:16:19.680 I meant Mushu too.
00:16:20.780 You're meeting too.
00:16:21.440 My mind was exploding.
00:16:24.020 You know what I mean?
00:16:24.880 They're really overwhelming you.
00:16:26.340 Well, which character is your favorite and have you met them at Disney?
00:16:30.400 In Disney?
00:16:31.260 Yeah.
00:16:32.900 I'm trying to think.
00:16:34.580 My favorite, Mulan was one of my favorite movies and princesses.
00:16:39.440 princesses well princesses i guess but she was my favorite because she like i re-watched mulan
00:16:46.260 literally like two days ago because i haven't watched the cartoon in a while yeah and i watched
00:16:50.740 it and i was like man i forgot how good this movie is and also i was thinking that's why she
00:16:56.520 was my favorite because she like did not take no for an answer like every time men told her to get 0.92
00:17:02.000 back get back to that kitchen she said no thank you right instead she joined the army that's true 0.98
00:17:07.900 she's real as fuck i was like watch out she's so me like you like and then like confused captain 0.98
00:17:12.720 lee shang like am i bi right right like he's when he finds out she's a girl and he's disgusted 0.99
00:17:19.620 he's like he throws her in the snow get out of here yeah yeah be gone yeah be gone i was because
00:17:26.360 but he must have had feelings for her already too yeah right had to have that's probably why he was
00:17:32.040 so angry conflicted i think so by the feelings a lot of people consider him like one of the first
00:17:36.820 bi characters you know in disney a bi king yeah we love that you know early representation and he
00:17:43.560 was very attractive too and so um yes yeah so okay so i would say i would say she was one of
00:17:51.920 my favorite ones i'm trying to think who else i like absolutely loved you know what's hard is
00:17:58.240 when you're at the parks i feel you know the protagonists aren't as interesting to play
00:18:04.600 as a character yeah you know what i mean i see what you mean the villains are fun yeah yeah they
00:18:10.100 are they are the witch yeah like the oh the evil uh the sorry the evil queen yeah oh from snow white
00:18:15.840 yeah period yeah that's tea i loved monsters inc that was one of my favorite ones oh yeah i would
00:18:21.680 love to meet them here's my thing though i have like a touch of megalophobia so like large what's
00:18:29.960 that like things that are really really big in general typically mammals like if they're really
00:18:36.200 large so like whales really scare me okay like i have a very deep-seated fear so when i see like
00:18:41.520 animal like costumes at disneyland like chewbacca for example i had like a full-blown panic attack
00:18:48.320 when i saw chewbacca once at disneyland as an adult as a full-grown adult like that's too big
00:18:52.960 for you yes you said whale and well well yes well is i mean almost miraculously out of this world
00:19:01.520 big yeah that's true and then you said chewbacca that chewbacca is like what six five i think he's
00:19:08.660 like seven feet tall okay okay yeah so that so that's too big for you too yes seven feet tall
00:19:14.380 yeah i think i think there is such a thing as too much like with with mammals like i'm like you
00:19:18.560 need to be that big there's no need so like humans too do humans that talk scary you know i just i
00:19:24.160 don't feel like jacob alordi yeah like he i saw him he is very tall in person yeah he doesn't
00:19:31.040 scare me it's just like it gives me the creeps like when it's a human it gives me the creeps
00:19:35.360 when you're a certain level of tall because my but my dad's really tall my dad's six six
00:19:39.360 but my dad's a big like a big dude like i think it's more like spindly like if you're really
00:19:44.080 skinny and you're really tall that's where i get a little spooked wow i'm a little okay like a
00:19:49.200 like a babadook yeah yes exactly like a slender man yes exactly and only men when i see what i
00:19:55.960 humans when i see uh women that are that tall i'm like wow human nature genetics they're fantastic
00:20:02.620 sure with men i'm like gives me the creeps yeah yeah i mean that that tracks yes um do you have
00:20:10.440 any fears i wonder if i mean that's what it already played right is frankenstein so when
00:20:15.140 people were scared of oh my god yeah yeah it's that um frankenstein's monster i think that's
00:20:20.220 why really tall people get that you know i think they grew up with like insecurities too right
00:20:25.340 because maybe people have whole fears around their their height they're scared of them because
00:20:31.320 they're so tall i'm so curious about this whale though the whale is also so so different have you
00:20:36.200 encountered a whale i mean i've seen pictures of them yeah i've seen videos i've seen one from a
00:20:41.720 distance oh the ocean scares me yeah me too i just i just kind of learned how to swim in a pool
00:20:49.820 so i your baby stepping towards the ocean i tried the ocean we were in hawaii and uh we kind of did
00:20:57.900 the bobbing up and down oh nice and the floaty but you would have thought you would have thought
00:21:02.160 I was in deep waters the way I was acting you were so so fearful of the ocean there were
00:21:08.540 lifeguards being like do we help her it's only up to her waist but I kept screaming yeah yeah
00:21:16.040 you're you're well you're learning so you're learning how to be in deep water do you are
00:21:21.160 you afraid of the ocean like just the ocean itself or is it like the animals it's all of it uh yes
00:21:27.880 no yeah all of it it's so like oh my gosh it's like day one of earth that's true you know it's
00:21:34.520 that's so true mother nature yeah she's gonna do whatever she wants oh my god that's such a good
00:21:39.660 point right it's deep it's wide yeah that's why that i love the ocean but ocean animals scare me
00:21:46.480 like fish scare me but like any and all animal there's very few animals actually that don't
00:21:52.480 scare me yeah so you know that's just kind of a me thing but with the ocean i feel very
00:21:57.340 respectful of the ocean i'm like you know your house your rules yes what am i doing in here
00:22:02.120 up and down with my bathing suit from billabong this was not meant to be here my roxy bikini
00:22:09.840 uh a bowl cut in the ocean this was not meant to be no right probably not and it's like what did i
00:22:17.580 get hit by was that uh someone's trash we don't we don't deserve this that's true i agree you know
00:22:25.140 yeah well the whale thing i think just kind of comes into the the largeness of them i'm just
00:22:30.220 freaked out like have you ever seen life of pie oh gosh i think maybe a long time ago well it's
00:22:36.520 not a minute detail but it's like do you remember that scene where he's like he's been stranded
00:22:40.440 and then a giant whale like goes up next to him and he like sees him and he's like whoa and then
00:22:46.660 it like gives him will to keep going right that would have made me kill myself that night right
00:22:51.240 i would have been like oh i forgot i'm in the ocean goodbye i would have let the tiger have
00:22:55.160 me at that point i'd be like you know what it's been fun i'm over it that would have been more
00:23:00.240 i couldn't when i watched that scene it like makes my heart race oh my gosh i can't imagine
00:23:04.720 same with that bible story where you know jonah got swallowed by the whale yes and then he still
00:23:10.180 had the will to live i think it happened in pinocchio too i'm like i'm sorry what hope
00:23:16.160 what makes you think you have any enough knowledge or strength right once i'm swallowed i'm like and
00:23:26.760 i live i would try to hold my breath until i just die i'm already in there i have contacts on
00:23:34.220 oh my god me too right you think no you're not supposed to sleep with contacts on but i'm now
00:23:40.260 in the belly of a whale you think no way no am i gonna take my contacts out while i'm in here
00:23:46.400 at best i'm gonna get eye infection yeah right right on top of starving to death in wet
00:23:53.160 in whale mind in wet whale in wet whale yeah i yes you're right like it's like the massiveness
00:24:00.860 like i am nothing right it's not like i'm so small i am nothing bye-bye yeah yeah right i'm
00:24:08.100 so menial in the large puzzle of life like that's really how i feel in those moments oh my gosh i
00:24:12.820 also don't have like any sense or drive to like push past stuff like that same that's like if i
00:24:19.240 got swallowed by whale yeah i don't have it at all i'm like well you know and you live and you're
00:24:23.640 like god damn it why okay what the hell okay and now i'm supposed to just deal with that for the
00:24:30.340 rest of my life what keeps you going the the possibility i've heard that like you know like 0.99
00:24:34.500 if you believe in a god or something that'll keep you going but i don't right i'm not like a church
00:24:39.820 person right so what is it it would have to be like oh you know it would have to be immense ego
00:24:45.960 yeah yeah you know hubris would have to drive this is gonna be a good book i can't die you know what
00:24:53.280 i mean i don't have that i don't have that either that's why i say sometimes when people are like
00:24:57.840 zombie apocalypse what do you think you would survive do you uh with with what skill do they
00:25:06.320 do you want a talent show every night where i do the same jokes yeah you just entertain i think
00:25:11.400 people would eat me first after the third night they'll be like she's doing the same set
00:25:15.420 she's doing the nothing new nothing new she's yeah she keeps going back to that zombie joke
00:25:21.140 well i'm over it i'm so over it yeah i mean how about you no same i've said the same thing
00:25:27.440 i i feel like i'm doing suicide pact with whoever wants to join me it's a real like if you'd like
00:25:35.200 to join but i'd like to do like i'd like to like eat a really good meal maybe do all my favorite
00:25:40.820 things right that i could do at the time and then i'm out what i want you know good good meal with
00:25:48.840 whatever there is too right exactly i'm assuming it's at the start because i don't think i'll live
00:25:54.400 very long so like i'm assuming it's like day one of zombie apocalypse what's a what's a fun weird
00:26:00.180 like trick or skill you can do that might be fun you know like not useful but something that people
00:26:07.280 don't know that's like fun yeah that you could do like a trick oh a trick like a party trick okay
00:26:13.680 i can guess height pretty well on men especially okay i can guess height pretty well you're gonna
00:26:19.980 you're gonna be eaten first you're gonna be eaten first i was trying to see if that could be a you
00:26:25.380 know useful yeah yeah yeah like okay you can guess height yeah i can guess height and they're gonna 0.97
00:26:30.520 be like i don't need that shit so everyone's like starving right and we're choosing a person to eat 0.89
00:26:35.600 and we're like drew what do you got and you're like are you you're like five five yeah i'm like 0.99
00:26:42.620 six two i can uh while i can wind my waist and uh going backwards okay and open up a bottle
00:26:53.700 really if it's loose already like i can spin the cap of a water bottle off but it has to be loose
00:27:01.220 yeah just a little bit there's there's limitations okay yeah well i think you're dying too then
00:27:06.420 by that measure i think we're dying alongside each other but you'll want to at least watch it
00:27:10.640 like oh i can buy time i'll be like i can do this do you want to see and then you would be like wait
00:27:16.720 we have to see that right that's true like well at least at least for a couple minutes at least
00:27:21.600 let's see if she's being for real right and while i'm at my most vulnerable i think that's when
00:27:29.020 people will just be like we're gonna barbecue her they would make the choice right there i think so
00:27:35.100 yeah but i mean probably yeah but you know what i'd be entertained which is probably why i'd be
00:27:39.880 killed too i have a bottle i'll show you later okay that would be perfect i still have it
00:27:43.620 she'll be your party trick later yeah this episode is brought to you by hulu a new dawn

00:28:32.560 i'm actually behind in shows okay um i've watched uh some fellow stand-up comedian specials like
00:28:41.220 chris flemmings oh i love yeah i love him so that's good yeah he's incredible what should i
00:28:48.560 be watching oh i i just said this on the last episode but the show paradise on hulu okay
00:28:54.140 starring i think oh yeah sterling k brown that's right that one fantastic no notes on my end no
00:29:01.440 one gives a fuck what i think but it's incredible it's truly like i would say it's one of those 0.73
00:29:07.420 shows where um things are getting so fucking insane and crazy but not in a way that's like 0.98
00:29:13.440 annoying so it's like each episode is something new and it's like it's just like the craziest 0.77
00:29:18.260 storyline ever can you tell me the premise yeah the premise is sterling k brown plays the head
00:29:23.760 of security for the current president of the united states who's james marsden and um he's
00:29:29.640 basically the president when the world ends so it's like the they have like because of climate
00:29:34.500 change there's like a huge natural disaster on all sides of the country all sides of the world
00:29:39.160 and so basically it blocks out the sun for like two years and like all the nation's richest most
00:29:45.900 elite people built a bunker and picked people to go live underground while that all happened
00:29:51.440 okay so it's like genuinely crazy like a crazy storyline and so they're all underground yeah
00:29:58.420 i mean like for the most part in the first season especially and now it's two seasons kind of like
00:30:03.640 fallout i i i've heard people compare it to fallout but i've never watched fallout okay did
00:30:08.720 you like that one um it got chaotic and i was like oh gosh with apocalypse stuff it's hard right
00:30:14.360 it's hard to keep it interesting but also not like too much so ridiculous yeah that's so true
00:30:19.560 but they are like living uh underground yeah i've had people i've had that feeling about shows
00:30:24.980 before where like i watched breaking bad right i never finished it yeah but i started watching i
00:30:30.620 watched a lot of it but there was a point at that show where i was like well it can't get any worse
00:30:36.140 than that like it just can't yeah and they always found a way to get it to be worse than that and
00:30:41.640 they just started stressing me out to the point where i had to stop i was like i gotta step away
00:30:45.380 from this yes because there was now like a chicken man like he sells chickens but he's the he's the
00:30:51.880 main bad guy yeah yeah uh lost do you did you ever watch the tv show lost no but i know it has the
00:30:58.260 biggest following like people love that show that one got so wild where it was it was like upsetting
00:31:04.980 where it would be like this person you thought was you know like your friend yeah there's two
00:31:11.120 of him but he's not a twin it's like a magical force that makes it so now there's two of him
00:31:17.080 and uh but you're not hallucinating it's for real and then there's this dark force that lives in the
00:31:23.220 it's so much yeah the whole thing wait i mean i don't know you can tell me you can tell me i think
00:31:28.500 the whole thing ends at a church the whole like seasons and seasons of people who you know they
00:31:35.860 they got stranded on an island after a plane crash and it ends in a church i think it's kind of like
00:31:41.580 the whole thing never happened or something like that that's crazy it was wild that is insane
00:31:46.660 do you have like an all-time favorite show oh gosh um like one that you're like you guys have
00:31:52.900 to watch this all-time favorite show maybe tv shows are hard for me is what i'm realizing
00:31:59.100 what about movie girl okay what about movies i love when a story just ends you know in one sitting
00:32:06.080 i don't the seasons thing is hard for years the same people make the same mistake
00:32:11.840 girl learn from it didn't you learn from last season yeah don't go back to him
00:32:17.340 sex in the city they're still in the city oh this can't be yeah no so i'm saying ain't so
00:32:27.240 i'm not retired yet that's how i feel about uh reality shows oh okay i can't do it because it's
00:32:34.100 this like you mean like um even with everyone being like hey you haven't watched have you
00:32:39.560 watch traders like even oh i haven't watched okay so traders i haven't watched but my sister has
00:32:45.460 told me all about and i know traders is fun traders is really cool because it's like people
00:32:49.980 you know too so they're all playing against each other right i'm talking about things like
00:32:53.880 the bachelorette like um yeah the secret lies of mormon wives thing like stuff like that love
00:33:00.660 is blind like dating stuff right all that i'm like i just can't i don't have room up here yeah
00:33:07.780 I can't store and I have this itis this very and this is a proven thing for me I have an itis where 0.82
00:33:13.700 like white people and this is honestly hilarious but it is very real I I have a very hard time 1.00
00:33:20.480 distinguishing them from each other so like I I like there was a whole thing where I thought 0.80
00:33:27.840 Paul Mescal Logan Lerman and another man named Dylan Manette I I thought all three of them were
00:33:36.720 logan lerman girl i'm trying to picture see see what i mean i that's why i'm telling you because
00:33:42.780 i think i knew you would understand this itis that i have right right you're like my grandma
00:33:48.180 so my grandma has known ryan my husband for 10 years my husband is white but i could be showing
00:33:54.040 her a picture of like harry styles or something and she will still think it's ryan it happened
00:33:59.820 the other day i was showing her i was like look he so he you know he just hosted snl yeah and she
00:34:04.940 was like that's a cute picture of ryan she goes he changed his eyes
00:34:11.340 no he didn't change yeah he got colored contacts he he changed his yes he changed everything
00:34:20.720 just for this picture just for this one gig just for this picture though and i said no grandma
00:34:27.500 this is not ryan this is harry his name is harry styles she goes who's harry i said i said he is
00:34:33.500 a famous singer and she said this is no joke she goes without missing a beat she goes oh ryan's
00:34:40.840 friend so to my grandma every white person is either ryan or knows ryan yeah yeah they all
00:34:50.660 know ryan and all roads lead back to ryan but honestly touche because it's kind of how asians
00:34:55.720 kind of that's literally what makes me laugh about it i and i'm being so genuine about it 0.99
00:35:00.500 like it's not i don't mean to do it it's just one of those things i just can't it's ironic that they
00:35:05.180 that they can be so racist sometimes and identifying people because they all look the
00:35:08.720 same to me yeah in a lot of ways so i'd like one time my sister was explaining the difference
00:35:13.900 between daisy it's gonna hard for me daisy ridley you're gonna have to pull these pictures exactly
00:35:21.240 okay daisy ridley okay daisy edgar jones different lady okay show called daisy and the six
00:35:29.860 what the hell oh yeah i literally go so daisy and the six is about daisy edgar jones they go
00:35:38.200 no and then i go okay um so and she goes that show my sister's explaining to me that show's 1.00
00:35:44.720 not about either of those two women those two women are two separate white women and they are 0.99
00:35:48.840 actresses both of them oh and i'm like oh so there's a whole different daisy yeah so then i
00:35:53.840 started saying daisy edgar ridley jones and that's all of their names combined and it was it was
00:35:58.980 stressing me out to the point where i was like forget it forget it forget it i believe you
00:36:01.540 forget it i don't need to know anymore even recently i sent my sister a picture of this
00:36:06.020 couple this white couple god bless them i don't know their names god bless them right they were
00:36:11.100 everywhere over fashion week apparently there's their pictures everywhere yeah i send it to my
00:36:15.880 sister i go who are these people yes because even when i go in the comments everyone in the comments
00:36:21.380 is like i don't know who these people are because it's like e-news or something instagram or there
00:36:25.960 people going love them love them together i'm not getting any info no one is telling me any
00:36:30.940 information and the caption just says hot couple alert okay so i know they're a couple sure yeah
00:36:36.760 and i literally said i said to my sister i said who are these people and then she sent me back
00:36:41.040 a bunch of ha-has and she goes there there are two actors in the show tell me lies but they are
00:36:47.920 dating in real life and i was like i can't yeah that's enough for me oh my god i'm glad she can 0.83
00:36:53.460 decipher isn't there like a condition where you can't like uh remember people's faces that's a
00:37:01.080 different thing but you just have it with with just white people and their names like they're
00:37:06.300 identifying their names like it's like even with with paul mescal like i thought paul mescal was
00:37:11.320 logan lerman for the longest time i like i don't know how on earth they're they're two different
00:37:17.760 people but i was just like when i first heard paul mescal's name i was like oh my god from percy
00:37:21.700 jackson the lightning thief that's what i think too yeah i was like my grandma must think my
00:37:26.240 husband is so busy all the time yeah like working all the time like she turns on cnn and she's like
00:37:31.800 oh it's ryan arguing with himself again ryan how are you doing that he's so talented he's president
00:37:39.400 again oh my god your grandma have that in common right where you're just like these people are in
00:37:45.780 so many things at the same time well i see my future and it is bright when i look at your
00:37:49.860 grandma i'm like that's gonna be me in my old age like for real that's gonna be it's like at 1.00
00:37:54.320 disneyland they're so strict about like there can't be two cinderellas walking around at the
00:37:58.580 same time we must you know what i mean because there's multiple yes but you cannot be seen both 0.76
00:38:04.600 of you it kills the magic there's only one of you one of you it's like that yes exactly yeah and
00:38:10.840 that's why i feel very like it feels like a joke but because it is but i i really do struggle with
00:38:17.400 it like i thought i thought paul mescal was was percy jackson and then when i told my sister i
00:38:21.740 was like oh well i think that's well you know the guy from percy jackson and she goes who and i go
00:38:25.860 paul mescal she goes he's never been in that movie and i'm like well then who the hell is that
00:38:29.600 then she shows me a picture of him and i go who the hell is that i now obviously i know who he is
00:38:34.360 this was a couple years ago yes but at the time i was just like oh my god like i just can't i can't
00:38:40.200 keep it straight so then when you watch reality shows you're just like how am i gonna remember
00:38:44.960 the drama exactly i think emily was emma and marcy too right and so right and they're all like
00:38:53.820 fighting each other it's the same thing with like the mormon wives i'm like i everybody has brown
00:38:58.880 hair oh and everybody's white and short so i that's really all i have i don't have any other
00:39:04.240 town and their wives yeah for real i need to like i feel like i need to have different backstories
00:39:10.080 yeah or you know how sometimes when people have sheep they they spray paint a number like a number
00:39:15.100 on them or something and they're like that's number six like sometimes i feel like i need to 0.69
00:39:18.640 do that to white people so i just don't forget till i remember till it's like ingrained you know 0.68
00:39:22.800 what would help you you ever seen naked and afraid yes i have i used to love that show so that's only 0.51
00:39:28.640 two white people at a time yes and it's usually they do like boy and girl yeah so like you you'll
00:39:35.200 be like that okay that one's marcy and that one's back yeah yeah it has no boy and i know girl it
00:39:40.340 has to be exactly identify boy and girl yes yeah that's true that's why i said like i saw that
00:39:45.860 couple i said who is this uh who is this oh my gosh and one time one time i met someone
00:39:53.680 because i do like i do actually remember faces for the most part if i meet you in person like
00:39:59.740 if i meet you in person it's different yeah but like there was one girl who had met me
00:40:03.620 and then like a year later she met me again at a different event but she had different hair oh and
00:40:09.340 so like i remembered her face but i was like i don't want to assume that's her because of my
00:40:13.740 itis because she was a white woman okay so i was like i don't want to assume that's her because
00:40:17.560 what if it's my itis acting up and it's not her right and so i was like oh it's nice to i said
00:40:21.920 like it's nice to see you and then she but i said it in a way that didn't seem like i remembered her
00:40:27.460 and then she goes oh we've met before and i go okay i thought so but you changed your hair color 0.98
00:40:32.520 because she was blonde when i met her right when i saw her she was brunette and she had shorter hair
00:40:37.040 and she goes i did dye my hair and i go i literally was like oh thank god right you are like my
00:40:43.920 grandma you're like you changed your eyes yeah exactly swapped them out yeah imagine she was
00:40:51.480 like wow he looks way better imagine right oh my god she's like thank god just kidding
00:40:58.260 wow okay so i know you said hard i know you said back to what you like to watch i know you said
00:41:05.300 you were watching a lot of your friends uh stand-up specials aside from chris fleming
00:41:09.480 any other faves that you've seen that's right uh taylor tomlinson's also i watched hers too
00:41:14.920 yes yeah so good yes so funny because i used to be a church girl yeah so i uh i was curious what
00:41:22.400 she would say about it yeah my father-in-law is a televangelist preacher currently of a mega
00:41:28.140 church whoa yeah so i'm always like you know what yeah what's being said about it right could i use
00:41:35.680 this to make him feel bad you know like a clip can't use this for evil yeah yes yeah yeah yeah
00:41:43.700 what else um let's see who else who's who else has been up i think those two are the latest
00:41:48.960 i'm so i'm so curious like as like a professional stand-up like what do you because your stand-up
00:41:56.100 first of all killer is just unbelievable and you are so funny but you have one of those really
00:42:02.300 unique things about your comedy where it's it's never punching down and i feel like especially
00:42:07.380 now with comedy and like the integration of the internet at the same time it's like you know how 0.97
00:42:13.800 some comedians who are bad will be like oh it was a fucking joke when they say really offensive 0.96
00:42:18.620 things as if it's impossible to joke without punching down right right but i guess like my 0.97
00:42:23.180 question to you is like how did you find that like voice in comedy for you like how did you come to
00:42:29.440 that like and start creating your jokes and writing them because they're so funny and they're
00:42:33.960 so relatable but they're also so specific to you and authentic to your experience so like how did
00:42:38.960 you like find your voice in comedy really yeah they say it takes like 10 years for you to like
00:42:45.540 find your voice in comedy yeah um some people longer i feel like it took me a while because
00:42:52.000 you know you're first trying to like sound like other people uh because that's who you watched
00:42:57.160 right like you know margaret cho or tigno taro people i had watched love um i feel like there's
00:43:03.260 like a like i was talking about how you know i'm kind of newer still at learning how to make
00:43:09.600 friends as an adult i think you know i i grew up with my mom and grandma who never talked in the
00:43:16.200 growing up yeah uh they didn't listen to any music we just sat in silence we lived in that
00:43:22.320 garage and you know my mom has schizophrenia and didn't have any friends so i didn't really
00:43:28.340 watch them socialize and you know also have interest in stuff right so it's hard for me
00:43:34.000 to figure out even like how do i build a personality yeah you know i didn't have
00:43:38.140 siblings i didn't have siblings who could tell me the difference between white people or you know
00:43:43.700 what i mean like i didn't being like hey this is a new song you know this is the latest songs that
00:43:48.500 we're listening to at school i didn't have that yeah so um i think it took me a little longer to
00:43:53.980 figure out what the hell is my taste or my voice right and um so then but then i just knew the
00:44:02.300 things i was gravitated towards you know if um i think watching my mom suffer all her life and
00:44:08.940 still to this day you know she's still like very very much bedridden and you know can't drive she
00:44:14.900 has seizures too so you know she's just very alone while i get to like tour the world and have
00:44:22.300 different experiences yeah i just i can picture her you know even right now she's just you know
00:44:27.680 in in her bed right watching tv and you know watching other people like live life yeah and so
00:44:36.320 i think with that i built a lot of like love and empathy for people humans totally and so
00:44:43.560 and connection yeah yeah totally and so i think never wanting people to feel like an outsider
00:44:52.760 like they don't belong was huge for me yeah and so i think that's why like punching down isn't
00:44:59.960 something I even like gravitate towards yeah yeah absolutely even when I'm my drunkest and
00:45:06.660 I'm having fun yeah like that's not even the way I would joke no never well that's that's what I
00:45:13.400 find so amazing about your comedy because it can still transcend because your culture is a big part
00:45:20.080 of your comedy too and you're able to like transcend culture and like speak to other people
00:45:25.120 of different cultures and like i how did how did you or when did you start kind of incorporating
00:45:30.060 that into your comedy like a lot more did you start from the very beginning did you kind of
00:45:34.200 work up to it yeah i think in the beginning i did a little bit but then you know i was like
00:45:40.900 yeah when i when i started i think there was still a little bit of a tendency to
00:45:47.280 want to like punch down on yourself right oh yeah yeah yeah and so there was some there was
00:45:53.700 some punching down I was trying when I was trying different jokes like uh making fun of like your
00:46:00.060 own Asian-ness or something right I have done that actually because I wanted to fit in or you know
00:46:06.580 it was it was hard I started like 16 years ago and there weren't that many Asian American
00:46:15.440 comedians at that time so yeah there would be times where one time I was hosting a show
00:46:21.520 and i brought up a comedian friend of mine he was south asian um and we knew each other though
00:46:29.400 so i brought him up and then he immediately because he wanted to fit into i think you know
00:46:35.660 he was like yeah thanks uh thanks thanks for that uh what was her name pokemon pikachu what was it
00:46:42.940 and i was like okay you know because he didn't want to i don't know but to make fun of the fact
00:46:50.020 that my name is hard to say right and different and asian even though he was asian too and he had
00:46:56.640 taken on an english name right um and so uh yeah so i'm like i'm like oh i never punched that but
00:47:04.080 i did i have punched out in the past on my you know yourself yeah like which is maybe like bad
00:47:09.180 driving joke or something about myself right but that's also like like comes with growth too like
00:47:14.420 you were saying like over time you've learned and found your voice like in a much more authentic
00:47:20.180 and true to you way and i think that's natural too because especially as women of color like 0.96
00:47:26.320 when you go into comedy like the easiest thing i feel like too sometimes is to punch down on you 0.52
00:47:31.440 especially if you're someone who doesn't want to hurt others and you're like well i'll just talk
00:47:34.660 about me right but i think what's beautiful about your comedy now though is that you can still
00:47:40.160 make jokes involving culture but not in a way that's upsetting or offensive or like punching
00:47:47.620 down like we were talking about but i think too first of all i want to say your name is badass 0.97
00:47:53.460 like you have a killer fucking name and i i love that you insist upon how it's pronounced i love 0.95
00:48:00.660 that you kept your name i think that's fucking incredible and it is like part of assimilation 0.99
00:48:05.640 and like assimilating into white supremacy when uh you take on english names when you take and i 0.93
00:48:11.000 and i understand what you're saying too where you have empathy for it because you understand
00:48:14.440 wanting to fit in and wanting to blend but then you also understand what it takes from you when
00:48:20.280 you do like sacrifice that like you're almost sacrificing yourself a little bit when you get 0.91
00:48:24.300 to do that so i think it's fucking awesome that you continue to perform as your true government 0.82
00:48:30.800 birth name i think that's fucking beautiful i think it's amazing and that's also another reason 0.63
00:48:35.800 too why i didn't um make up a handle or anything when i started making videos i just did my first 0.60
00:48:41.080 and last name and um a lot of men who hate me um and women too who hate me have like purposely and
00:48:47.960 intentionally mispronounced my last name which is really not hard to say but every time i it said
00:48:54.800 just like your name's not hard to say like if you um just try just a little bit it's pretty easy
00:49:00.540 um and it's also free to ask and i will say the one name i've ever mispronounced on this show
00:49:06.760 yeah was my white friend caleb heron oh the last name i think still kind of trips people up yeah
00:49:13.360 with him i said heron and he's like it's actually heron and i said that's crazy because i've never
00:49:18.400 mispronounced the last name literally ever that was the first time i ever had him on wow and he
00:49:24.000 was a white guy i wonder if it's part of the itis yeah it's part of my itis exactly it's rearing its
00:49:29.020 head in so many ways and honestly i laugh because i feel like it's reparations low-key you know to
00:49:34.780 just be like well and your name kevin is it kevin kevin osco kevin oh sorry sorry sorry names are
00:49:44.120 hard for me pronounced do you mind if i call you k it's just easier for me it's like my my friend
00:49:52.200 um she brought uh she was gonna bring someone over to my house who's irish right yes and um
00:49:59.960 your new found new people yeah my newfound people right i told you i was like family my second
00:50:05.560 family my found family that's right she was gonna bring someone over to my house and i was like
00:50:09.820 telling my boyfriend or my boyfriend hello my man yeah i was telling him um me workshopping
00:50:16.220 bits to him i was like when he comes here i'm gonna say nice to meet you welcome to america
00:50:23.940 my name is drew and he was like don't and i was laughing at my own joke yeah that's really fun
00:50:31.100 and he was like yeah don't laugh like he's here and you haven't even said it yet
00:50:35.620 i was like i'm practicing and it's hilarious i was like i'm gonna talk really loud like he
00:50:41.700 can't understand see that's that's good yeah you have to you do stand up sometimes right
00:50:49.500 i have done stand up a couple times yeah yeah i i am no longer pursuing it you're not
00:50:54.840 no but that's a good that's a good set i you think yeah that's a good set i you know what's
00:50:59.940 funny is like i i don't think i i think what i don't like about stand up for me is having to tour
00:51:06.500 because i really don't like touring and i touring it touring is a huge part of it right right i just
00:51:11.580 have so many things happening right now i was like i think no to this maybe maybe in a few years
00:51:17.420 if i want to i'll circle back right right you just save these bits yeah yeah have your man remember
00:51:22.020 tm by the way yeah also taylor tomlinson when i told her i was like yeah sometimes my my stand-up
00:51:27.860 friends tell me you should you should try stand-up yeah and she's like don't do that and i go you
00:51:32.040 don't think and she goes well that's like going backwards for you you like cut the line kind of
00:51:36.940 and i was like that's a good point i mean only if you you know only if it interests you but i just
00:51:43.480 yeah that's a fun bit that i don't know you could i guess you could you're doing it on your podcast
00:51:47.920 now yes but you know i just picture it to be like a sketch or even a i don't know and then you could
00:51:53.900 stretch it into a movie i don't know you're giving me ideas you know what i mean like every idea can
00:51:58.660 be used and reused in different formats absolutely look at you i don't know we should be in a movie
00:52:04.940 together yes you and i i was i was yeah i'll i'll think we should where do we want to go let's start
00:52:11.200 with the location let's workshop yeah um i think it would be awesome if we did one disneyland yeah
00:52:18.320 something something disneyland related i feel like if we did something like we're like searching for
00:52:25.180 something like unexpectedly we end up on like a treasure hunt of some kind oh yeah i think that
00:52:31.520 would be pretty killer you're gonna make us do physical activity we're like you're like i'm
00:52:36.580 thinking sand i'm thinking treasure hunt sun i'm thinking like the putting two people that should
00:52:44.120 not be in nature in nature that's what i'm that would be good i think so yeah us in the forest
00:52:50.140 yes i think so we could do like a duo thing so far from socal yes yeah oh wow we got a name
00:52:57.560 already workshopping a name you said so far from socal wow i didn't even think about how there was
00:53:03.120 two so the way your mind is working we're cooking already oh my god we're cooking with gas
00:53:08.120 we gotta get your husband yeah harry styles on it maybe he can help finance it for us
00:53:14.660 my grandma was like once i oh my god them in the same room my grandma might die
00:53:21.020 she'll literally go cross-eyed like no he has a twin there can't be there can't be two of you
00:53:27.720 yes that's how i felt watching lost that scene that when that happened there were two johns
00:53:32.760 yeah you're like there's this can't be real oh my god this can't be true my husband did this thing
00:53:38.280 the other day on the phone just with speaking of names and you know my name isn't difficult and
00:53:43.120 he's been very like um it's he tours with me and it's very nice to have um have him because he's
00:53:49.940 very much the advocate for me sometimes you know even in theaters sometimes like the tech
00:53:55.100 people might be older and the kind of dinosaurs and yeah um you know we've had instances where
00:54:03.180 we walk into a comedy club when i've been like writing my show still yeah instead of going to
00:54:08.020 theaters yet uh where they welcome my husband thinking he's the comedian you know and so he
00:54:14.680 And you're just his assistant?
00:54:16.200 Yeah, and he goes, in what world am I, Otsuko Katsuka?
00:54:19.340 You know who is coming this weekend.
00:54:22.940 You think my name's Otsuko?
00:54:24.740 He was like, this is insane.
00:54:25.780 You think that would make more sense than having her be the headliner?
00:54:30.640 You did mental gymnastics so hard that you—
00:54:33.840 To try and make that work?
00:54:35.220 To make me a white guy, Otsuko Katsuka. 1.00
00:54:38.620 You're sick. 1.00
00:54:39.740 You're sick. 1.00
00:54:40.640 So he does these things for me.
00:54:42.220 That's so good.
00:54:42.980 I'm glad.
00:54:43.180 Cause sometimes they might not want to listen to me,
00:54:45.040 you know,
00:54:45.500 with like tech and sound cues and stuff like lighting cues.
00:54:48.520 So he,
00:54:49.080 he will do that.
00:54:50.200 Um,
00:54:50.580 and I caught him on the phone the other day telling,
00:54:53.400 um,
00:54:54.480 uh,
00:54:54.880 a customer service on something.
00:54:57.140 I forget what we were trying to figure out where he was like,
00:55:00.100 I just heard him go,
00:55:01.420 uh,
00:55:01.920 my wife's name, 1.00

00:55:10.160 push. 1.00
00:55:11.780 Yeah.

00:55:20.000 naked and unafraid unafraid for real and real confident like real convicted in it even like
00:55:26.440 sometimes my man like i'll have him go tell men certain things like if if someone's working on
00:55:32.460 something or someone i need something done and i only do that when i feel like i can tell that
00:55:38.080 they don't they're not really thinking i'm in charge right like they're they're really like
00:55:41.940 always going to him so sometimes when i want what i want specifically i'll make him go tell them 0.88
00:55:47.800 yes because i'm like you do it because i don't want to fucking just do it i know and then 0.93
00:55:51.880 sometimes i have to lay down the hammer and it has to be me okay because sometimes i make him do 0.97
00:55:56.400 it because i'm like if i go over there then they're gonna say i'm a bitch and i really don't 0.98

01:00:30.200 is because i went to a male strip club and like it was a two-story strip club in vegas
01:00:35.940 and the bottom floor was women the top floor was men and the bottom floor with women was like
01:00:41.260 creep town usa like it was silent and it felt like every dude looked like the penguin and every and
01:00:48.080 every woman was moving like slow and measured and then upstairs like i was like that's just like an
01:00:53.700 i think like an iteration of how men are because upstairs where there's women everyone there's
01:00:58.520 music and everyone's dancing and laughing having fun and like throwing money whatever
01:01:02.020 but it was like truly like one of the most like horrifying nights to me like I just like I found 1.00
01:01:08.920 even on your floor yeah like even on my floor where women women are creating the vibes yeah 0.90
01:01:13.500 well and the vibe was fun it was like the dance itself the dancers themselves that I was struggling
01:01:19.240 to really connect with in any way even if it's just for fun like and I was single at the time
01:01:25.340 but I I think I found out in that moment I should have already known considering how much disdain I
01:01:31.760 had naturally towards men but i should have already known this but like i found out in that
01:01:36.300 moment i was like i when men try to be sexy in front of me it makes me angry like i found out
01:01:42.920 very quickly that it irritates the fuck out of me and it and because i'm so irritated i can't stay 0.96
01:01:48.420 in the fantasy because i'm just sitting there irritated as fuck i'm literally like what are 0.93
01:01:52.800 you why are you doing that why are you doing that you should be going to war he's like he's like 0.98
01:01:58.600 why are you not you should be going on war that's so funny far away from me in a different country
01:02:04.660 risking your life you should be somewhere else entirely away from me and i he's like i work here
01:02:11.280 he's on a pole i know what is that yeah what are you doing we get down from there 1.00
01:02:16.760 you don't even know these people put a shirt on yeah slut i start slut shaming him but i just 0.99
01:02:23.340 struggled to like even enjoy myself i also hate being touched by like anyone that isn't my man 0.95
01:02:30.840 so like which at the time it was no one so like i i even like i don't mind hugs and stuff with
01:02:36.460 friends and all that but like just generally speaking i'm not a fan of being touched yeah so
01:02:41.000 like there was a lot of touching going on like of not of me intentionally but it was like one of
01:02:45.880 those where they were like rub on me oh wow yeah yeah and a lot of their chests are prickly because
01:02:50.640 they're itchy and so like because they're shaving but they're like they haven't shaved yeah they
01:02:55.420 haven't shaved recently i guess they just don't have time for their shift but it was rubbing all
01:02:59.420 over me giving me a rash and i was like and everyone smells weird and i was feeling like
01:03:03.120 oh my god and then my mom my mom was there mind you yeah and she paid for me to get a lap dance
01:03:10.000 on the stage which was like one of the most first off of course your mom was there of course she was

01:12:02.060 just been boyfriend and girlfriend this whole time this whole time it was a a devastating
01:12:09.520 realization i said this is the second time i've been undocumented and they got me again they got
01:12:16.840 mean again but this time it was my fault and that is progress because the first time was not the
01:12:23.480 first time my grandma you know lied to me about a two-month vacation to the u.s this time you know
01:12:29.320 it's because i had partied too hard at the wedding apparently so make sure you do this i mean your
01:12:35.460 whole family's there your whole family make sure you're okay which is so good yeah um but you know
01:12:41.540 you're supposed to like sign yeah you're supposed to get like pre-married before you go do your
01:12:46.040 wedding but even after the wedding there's like two witnesses that are supposed to sit there and
01:12:50.700 then you sign and that that piece has to be taken in to city hall yeah as well good to know yeah
01:12:58.100 just so i don't get caught seven years later too yeah because we've been paying taxes as married 0.84
01:13:03.300 the whole time too and we weren't that's a fucking joke that we had to do that yeah well no i mean 0.76
01:13:10.680 like the fact that they fucked up your marriage certificate well i guess you didn't sign it but 0.93
01:13:13.880 still i'm gonna blame city hall we just forgot to turn it but apparently the efficient does it and 0.86
01:13:18.340 i don't know it's confusing our efficient was also blackout that night he's a one of everyone
01:13:23.520 was blacked out at the wedding we were just dancing no one can be held responsible we were
01:13:27.280 having the night of our lives so make sure you you turn that paper in whatever it is i'm sure
01:13:32.300 y'all they know your family yeah okay this one says you met your 50 year old half brother for
01:13:40.160 the first time at a ninja theme park in japan that's right yeah last last year that's crazy
01:13:46.300 just randomly we had planned to meet there okay my dad um and him had reconnected okay i never met
01:13:56.520 him before uh he's from my brother is from my dad's first marriage and uh yeah i was like well
01:14:04.540 i want to meet him i didn't know yeah i didn't really know about him yeah so i i got nervous
01:14:12.440 you know meeting a whole sibling i'd never met before i've always wanted siblings you know yeah
01:14:17.880 yeah with the silent household i grew up in yeah yeah and uh so i i we had planned to do dinner but
01:14:26.880 as the date came closer i i got cold feet so i was like i think i'm gonna cancel and my dad was
01:14:33.640 like please don't cancel like what are me and him gonna talk about he wanted me there i said
01:14:40.060 you already met up with him he said i know it was weird i need you there i need i need a buffer he's
01:14:46.200 like you're the fun one i was like oh how unfortunate of course i've you know what i
01:14:51.340 mean like nobody in my family likes to talk yeah yeah so i was like okay i'll go but um i'm gonna
01:14:58.080 need distractions yeah like if you know my japanese isn't even that good like if you're
01:15:03.920 gonna make me go through with this we're gonna meet at this ninja samurai theme park that i've
01:15:08.480 been wanting to go to you know so i can check a couple items off my list oh yes thank you like
01:15:14.480 while i'm there yes doing this favor for y'all i can't think of a better way to meet a man i've
01:15:21.120 never met before then you know there are rides there are people in character uh there are scare
01:15:29.460 actors that chase you around a show that happens every hour i said this is perfect we will never
01:15:35.280 have to talk we can keep it moving yes i was gonna ask you how was the theme park was it fun
01:15:42.120 it's incredible it's like edo period themed so it's like shogun the tv show okay yeah it was a
01:15:48.740 theme park oh wow so everyone's in character of that time okay um yeah there's like literal
01:15:55.620 ninja houses that you could like train to be ninjas at um samurais that's so cool yeah what
01:16:03.460 a genius idea and you know like we love theme parks yeah so i suggest even you know after doing
01:16:10.240 that i was like anytime you need to have a difficult conversation with someone take them
01:16:14.780 to a theme park it's so it's great advice then while you're at the top of like the ride and
01:16:20.720 you're about to drop that's when you break the news like i want a divorce you know whatever it
01:16:26.600 is whatever then it's easy it's softer yeah it softens it a little bit and then they're like
01:16:32.420 what'd you say and you're like you heard me wait let's go again yeah they're like what'd you say
01:16:37.280 you're like let's go back on another ride i'll tell you is that mickey you know that's a genius
01:16:44.280 the way your mind works it fascinates me okay last fun one it says you are going to be the
01:16:50.800 parade grand marshal of the northern california cherry blossom festival this month that's right

01:17:18.220 yeah i think you're right yeah i said i think you're right i'll agree with you i agree with
01:17:25.780 you i think that's a great idea you should lead it like leading right totally i don't know the
01:17:30.800 path i don't live there but they just let you go and you just kind of figure it out i would love
01:17:37.480 that oh I think that's so how fun yes to I mean they they tried to get me last year but I was
01:17:44.680 like oh I don't know I don't know what it is and people were like this is kind of a big deal it's
01:17:48.980 like your community being like you're gonna be grand marshalling this you know very like cultural
01:17:55.680 event that happens for Japanese Americans in you know there's only two Japan towns left in the
01:18:01.840 united states and one is san francisco and then the other one is la uh so you know a lot of them
01:18:08.540 um kind of went away after japanese internment yeah and so they're like it's kind of a big deal
01:18:14.440 i was like okay i said who who was the grand marshal last time this is how very few japanese
01:18:20.220 people live in america i have no clue it was hello kitty
01:18:25.060 i said a cartoon character a cartoon character with the grandma hello kitty what big shoes to
01:18:34.300 fill you have yes i said what you run out of people oh last year literally ran out of people
01:18:42.000 yeah they literally said well what's sanrio got going on let's go said no so uh can we do hello
01:18:49.620 kitty let's ask karopi why not but i guess hello kitty is a girl do you know her lore
01:18:57.140 you have to i i think i know she's three apples tall yes and she's actually she's not a cat she's
01:19:03.420 a girl i didn't know that no i did not you know this they're all nodding she's wearing a costume
01:19:11.080 the client are they all wearing costumes so she's a furry so the the claim is not just a girl she is
01:19:21.080 a a british girl named kitty is that right and she is also that picture a british girl okay she's not
01:19:31.320 a cat she's just dressed as one okay but still she is three apples tall and weighs how many apples 0.57

01:19:47.780 please remind us how how many apples does she weigh weigh uh-huh because it they weighed her 1.00
01:19:54.640 via apples too for some reason because they're them because you know they're violating her
01:20:00.260 hippo rights telling me three apples she's five apples oh five apples now riddle me this
01:20:08.460 riddle me this this the math makes sense if you're five apples tall and i know you're afraid
01:20:14.940 of tall people five apples tall but then wouldn't you maybe wouldn't you weigh at least five apples

01:28:10.620 awesome okay and we tried to do we tried to do epcot like we tried to do drink around the world
01:28:15.800 but we didn't do it till the end of the day and we only made it to two countries and then we were
01:28:19.960 like let's go sit down it's hot so what's drink around the world basically in epcot they have
01:28:25.940 all of the countries in a big circle like that so you basically go to each country and get one drink
01:28:32.600 and you drink all the way around the world oh yeah and do people ever just get messy yeah absolutely
01:28:38.500 that's like the fun of it i guess but we the first time i ever did that was like a few years ago
01:28:43.460 and my brother couldn't go to that trip when we went because he had football in school and so
01:28:48.880 that's why he wanted to go last year for his 21st birthday but we tried it the first time i went we
01:28:53.840 got pretty i think we got like a quarter of the way through i think we made it to japan thanks 0.98
01:28:59.420 japan's there i think that was the last drink i had and then after that i was so fucked up and 0.80
01:29:03.220 and hot i like was like i need to sit down and eat something where do you start i'm so curious 0.90
01:29:08.260 there's two different like starting ends so there's canada on one side and there's mexico
01:29:13.320 on the other oh did you start at mexico the first time we started at canada and then we got all the
01:29:19.040 way to japan which is like a quarter of the way up i think and then this time we went to mexico
01:29:23.040 and we went backwards yeah and then we were like i just can't even do this so fun it's really fun
01:29:29.620 okay we got to do it together yes i think we'll have a blast you talk about blackout you have

01:29:43.060 i know i won't i said oh i want to start on that side canada yeah you gotta start there work your
01:29:48.440 way up we learned a different method because i think we were all getting our own full drinks
01:29:52.740 and trying to finish them before the next country the first time i went so i think that's why i got 0.75
01:29:56.760 so fucked up and then now i think they say like if you get one and you share it with one other 0.83
