Nicky, here's Nikki and Andrew. Hello, Yeah, Andrew's here today, you guys. It's a special version of the show. Welcome to a special fan trax version of the show. That means that we have too much feedback from you guys, and we don't get to it all every Thursday, which is our normal fan trax segment. So all we're doing today me and Andrew are and Noah are going to sift through your voice memos, your d M s, your emails, anything you've sent to the show, and we are going to laugh at it, laugh with you, laugh at you, um and respond, maybe give advice. It's just a special episode that is going to cover our butts if one day we get sick or can't do the show. And um, Andrew's very uncomfortable right now because I have Last night, I did do surgery on myself and I finally think I'm kind of sad almost because whatever this thing is on my knee, I've definitely dug it out. And I went to places last night that I didn't think I could go in terms of pain tolerance, and I loved it. It's a lot, folks. And I took off my band aid because it's so much worth literally bleeding. It's already scaped, it's already scabbed. The scab has happened. It's scabbing. There's no fresh understand it looks like like a crime scene on her knee, and she it's her own thing. I get it, but you know, it's making me a little queasy. There's no there's no apologizing. You have to do. This should make you queazy. This is weird. And I and it. It started we just did a podcast and it was bubbling up during that, like I took off the bandmaid and it like opened up and started bleeding and it was making like puddles of blood. But I didn't I couldn't be the guest on, so I couldn't go get a band aid. So then it actually I saw it scab and now it's like building scabs and it stopped bleeding, and I'm just fascinated by it. And if you do want anything removed surgically from you, sign over your life to me, and I will gladly do it because I'm pretty good at it. Unless you cut the corn off my girlfriend's toes. So yeah, I did tell them about that, so I think, yeah, but that this that doesn't require blood. I mean, I really this would usually need a local anesthetic. And all the videos I've watched, if someone having a wart like this removed, this is not like a bad word. It's just like a weird growth. Um people, No doctor would ever do what I did last night with my scalpel, my medical grade scalpel, without anesthetic. And I did it, and I honestly could have taken more. I think I would have been okay, civil war I was. I was truly thinking last night, if I ever got my arm cut under a caught under a boulder, I could cut I could cut it off. I really could, because I let me just say that I was. I usually just removed the top layer. If you want to treat your work, you just scrape off the callus and then you put on whatever medicine and then you put a cover over it. That's generally the best way to treat it. Uh Apple site of vinegars is I think the best method that I've seen on the words subredit but this but the other way and and dermatologists in the States can't even do it because it's surgery is they cut the word out. That's really the best technique and there's videos of it in Europe and Canada like where they can do it all over YouTube. So I've literally learned how to do it. And what it takes is like you have to you have to go past it because the award this is not interesting. But the word only lives on the first layer of your skin. It does never goes deeper. It does tap into your blood supply, so you're gonna get crazy bleeding, but that's not It's not like it's never gonna end unless you're you know, one of those the e ma lephiliac or whatever it is. Um, I just made up a word, but there's some word of I don't stop bleeding, and I just don't feel like coming up with it. And but last night I was just there was this wordy tissue that I could feel because I've listened to so I've watched so many videos of them scraping using a little ice cream scoop curet to scrape out what appears to be like, oh you got the word out, why are you scraping it still? Because if any cell of wordy tissue remains, it will regrow. And last night I was like, let's see if I can like this thing that's been on my knee for over a decade get a lot. I pick it. It's it's like and it's something that brings me a lot of I don't know if anyone out there is a picker, but when I get anxious, I like the fact that I am able to pick it, like I'll miss this thing if it's gone. But I honestly wanted to see if I could do what everyone on the Subred Awards is trying to do. There's people there that are creeping on word videos because they're like me and they just like it. And then there are also most people are there just like here's my words, like I don't know what to do with it, and then there's creates like me commenting like will you take it? Like? And there's always so it's people that are getting help for their words and people and also people like just loving it and they all get along. It's weird, like they'll the word people will be like because they keep coming back and they'll be like this this is today, what it is? What should I do? People give advice, then they and then we go film and then they sometimes do and then they bring a video and they're like, I don't know why anyone wants to see this, but here you go and we go, thank you so much. Yeah, it's honestly, I have offered people to pay people to make these videos because they are so soothing to my soul. Anyway, last night there was this tissue that I couldn't was a different consistency than the regular healthy skin. And I know is getting ready to write on our board that says let's move on from warts. Yeah, yeah, I know what you're doing. And that really means ten minutes. No one knows that five means ten because I don't listen, and three means yeah, well that sounds like a great band name. Um, that sounds like a cover band, uh Anthrax cover band. Anyway, last night I really did a great job, and I went to places like I challenged myself to perform surgery on myself, thinking I was like almost like a doctor in uh, you know, uh Pilgrim times or whatever, and I was like, wow, I could have been maybe a surgeon in those times if you didn't have to go to school for it, like, and I would just be a good patient because the thing is, most people couldn't take this pain. And I wish they could because we could get it, I could get it out right away. And but most people can't stand pain, and I get it. But I'm have a high tolerance, and I'm not getting shots for yourself. I'm not. I'm not being like I wouldn't. I'm sure there's something I could buy that would numb even ice. I think girls when they pie us their ears, they use ice to numb it. Um. There's some things you could give people that would love. In every movie they like, they drink a shot of whiskey. Drink whiskey. They so it makes you braver, like you bleed more if you're drunk for something. Yeah, it's blood for sure. All right, let's get to Uh. I'm sorry to make you uncomfortable with this though, because I know it is. It's just it's a lot. It looks like a like open surgery, like like you got a knee replace. Yeah, I can definitely get an infection very easily. But I know myself and I don't get infections often, So I'm just gonna I think that the only thing is like when you pick out your knee, like it's an it's almost involuntary at this point, and I think when we go to video, like, you're not going to even realize you do it. It's like I don't realize when I buy my nails and people see it and they get like very like people get so fucking anal about if you're doing something that's making them uncomfortable. So if you're playing with your knee or fidgeting. I'm a woman on the internet, so I know. I know that's your first rodeo of being picked apart about everything you do, like the thing on your knee. But I'm when I signed them to do video for this, first I wanted a desk to cover my legs so I didn't have to be judged for my outfit. Then I wanted then I would go, maybe I'll wear sunglasses like Jenny McCarthy because I don't want to do my makeup. I have now surrendered to I'm going to look like I look that dy. I'll try to look a little nice, just so it looks visually cool. Like when I try to put a makeup or want to ring light. It's not because I want people to want to fuck me. It's because it's more pleasing to the eye. People always go my sister goes, I don't need a ring light. I'm teaching zoo, I'm teaching high school kids, and I go, they'll more likely to look at the screen if it's a visually well lit thing. It's not because I want you to want to look fuckable for your students. It's because it looks better. Makeup makes you look not only more fuckable, but just more pleasing aesthetically to the eye. So um, I'm ready to have those things. However, I've been on a lot of TV shows where I've seen already and myself, to tell the truth, where you don't think you're on you forget you're on camera. It's almost like a reality show. When I've done reality, I've forgotten I was on camera and had that happen where I was like, oh my god, there's camera right there and you like happened to me yesterday in our meeting when I was playing with my penis in my shorts and I didn't realize I heard that happen. I'm sorry, I saw, Thank Goodness that we're friends, but it was I heard that happening. I just forgot. I catch you playing with your penis so often like a three year old board, but in my pants it's in your pants, but still it's not right. I would assume everyone thinks that, but like, yeah, but you stick your hands in your pants. It's not outside your pants there, it's in. Yeah, that's how comfortable you are around us. And yeah you forgot you were on zoom for a second and that's fine. Um, but anyways, yes, but yes, what were you saying you do involuntary things when you don't even realize it. Why were you telling me that, like, you gotta work on your picking thing. I'm not I'm not coming at you like that. I'm just saying that if you're picking a lot, I think it's you know what my best sees people watching. First of all, I don't read you comment, so I would never literally know if someone was calling me out for that. That's why I really do rely on the people who work for me to let me know, like, hey, people don't seem to be liking this thing that you do, because I'll never a critical d M. I stopped reading it, so, like Noah and Andrew, as much as you guys see, if anyone's like, we don't like this about the podcast, steer me in those directions without explicitly telling me that people hate me. But there I'm not getting Oh yeah, I've done that one. I know. But that's what I'm saying people. It's not I'm not but that's that's That's another thing. It's like I don't care if you eat your picks. Yeah, I just can't. I'd really try to do. I would be eating a lot on a lot more. Um So I'm just telling those people I'm doing my best and that doesn't bother me. And the picking thing we're saying like too much. I'm working on all those things. These are things I'm aware of of, um and the picking thing. But I have been on tell to tell the truth, and sometimes I the last time I was on, I made sure I go Nikki. Remember that the cameras on you so many times when your face just fell and was like natural. It's like the joke I made on Conan the Zoom meeting. You're like fake and you're like hi, I think so much and then it goes leave meeting in your face falls to its natural state, and I just try to remember, like, remember where you are, not don't be fake, but remember to be like you're happy, Like, don't FoST in your thoughts, be self awareness, so we'll have that during the video. I'm excited to get to it. Let's get to fan tracks. The whole episode is fan tracks starting now. Thank you guys so much for all of your feedback on the show. Let's get to it. No, what's up first? Okay, let's start with an email that we got. Hi, Nikki and Andrew, I think I just became a bestie to be on this. I was struggling sometimes to get through the podcast, especially when you and Andrew would be working your ship out on air. It was like listening to a bickering couple, which can be grading for sure. I'm such a big fan of you both, though, that I would just take a break and then check back into see how things were evolving. It was touch and go l O L. I just finished listening to the s s DJ episode Soul Sucking Day Job, and after walking away a couple of times from it, I decided to just finish it, and Nikki, you basically addressed every single thing at the end of that podcast I was having a hard time with. Not only did I feel completely seen, I too have a a d h D and can totally relate probably why I was having a hard time listening to it, but your self awareness and vulnerability came through in such a way that I committed to listening annoyed or not from here on out. Thank you so much for talking about all the things nobody else will. You are helping so many people by putting yourself out or like that out there like that mmmmm, Jiack bought from Brandy. Brandy, Oh my god, talk about feeling seen girl. That's why I did that. I'm so glad because I just I'm never gonna be a perfect performer and give all my fans exactly the version of myself that they wanted me or the be the thing that they tuned in for in the first place. I just can't, and I'm gonna have flaws. And that's why I just love the listeners of the show so much, because you know what, guys, I don't even mind, Brandy. I want you to never just rough it out. Like if I'm talking about something that's annoying you or your board, can I ask, can I as my best sea, will you just turn it off and like honor yourself in those moments of like this is uncomfortable, I don't like it, Like just do it feels good. So if I put you in a position where you're like not feeling good, do what Brandy said and just like turn it off and come back again and be like, I'm kind of mad at my friend NICKI like, I didn't like that. I just she just kind of disappointed me. You're allowed to be mad at me. You're allowed to be disappointed in me. Um. I I think it would be for you to be blindly on board with anything I do is not something I ask of my fan ends and sometimes when and I'm not saying not comparing besties to swifties, but I kind of am, because I do think that this was all born of the fact that I feel so taken care of as a Swifty and I want my fans to feel that way too, um And just like seen and all those things. But sometimes Taylor will do something that I don't love and I have I struggle with it, and I like get like mad, like you are departing from the version of you that I have on a pedestal, that is the version of you that you've only given me. I don't really know you, um, And I'll get hurt and and then sometimes I'll try to ignore it because I'm like, I just you know, the way we do in relationships of someone we love, they say something and we go I can't be with someone for talks like that, And then you just decide to forget it even happened, because it's too hard to realize that you're, you know, giving into this thing that you wouldn't stand for. But because it's Taylor Swift, I'll let it slide. So what I do is I try to process it, and I try to see it from their perspective. And I love that you were able to for maybe in the future, the apart Brandy that you would turn off, you won't have to actually stick out because you'll remember, I have a d h D and then I'm have self esteem issues and I smoke too much pot and I am on a d D meds that make me talk too much sometimes, but they also make me not want to kill myself. So it's better for myself to just be a little chatty, selfish bitch sometimes. And I can be a jealous person. I can be really petty, and it all stems from like not feeling enough, and so if you can extend that to me, and you play golf too much and it's like that's your only fault, Like we're just I really well. I think sometimes they're like like if they come to us as a place of like laughter and silliness and and then we're like, we're just bringing more stress. No. I knew when we did our fight episodes and we couldn't get out of it because Guy's besties have been in fights where they can't get out of it, where you just go we I can't move onto the news with my husband right now or whatever that version of and we can't talk about it off air sometimes and like it just so I I but I do think a lot of people get positive out of a daily show is going to have moments of disappointing you and being not good or not the best, because in order to have the best, you have to have low points. And I think that's something that I love about our show. And I've only felt comfortable being this vulnerable and this uh this, you know, like I've said, when we have an argument, I don't want to move on to the news like nothing happened, because even though that awkwardness is real, and maybe pointing out that it's awkward now is real and it's the only way to get past it because we can't. We don't have enough time to work it out. I'll at least address that, but I just feel like sometimes I need to finish an argument with you or get my feelings out, because um, it's the most honest thing to do, even though I know the show is suffering. And I hope that you understand that I'm I don't always put besties first and their interests sometimes in those moments that I get caught up in my own ego and I I want to remember though that the show is for you, and but it is for us too. But for me, the best show I can make is one that everyone benefits from. But I will say that the Taylor is with thing what it was able for me, something that she did that I was really hurt by personally and that I felt like betrayed or whatever by this person that it literally I'm probably in love with um she? Uh? Was she heard a joke on a Netflix show called Georgie and Frankie or not? No? Its like um. Anyway, there was a joke on a show on Netflix that everyone was watching at a time between a mother and a daughter, and the mother said, you go through guys like Taylor Swift faster than Taylor Swift, and Taylor send out a tweet that was like, come on, Netflix, you can do better than this. Really like you're gonna I don't know, I don't know exact wording, but she was annoyed by this joke, And to me, as a comedian who writes jokes, I was like, Taylor, you're famous, you open yourself up to that, and it's like such an innocuous joke, Like why is why the big deal about them saying you date a lot of people, you've been in a relationship for you know, four or five years now, that's the old version of you. That's a shitty joke, you know it is. Let it slide because I think it probably like you said, whatever, they're gonna listen to his actually win thing, how you were like insecure about not feeling dirty. She's probably has those same feelings of like, yeah, I do write a lot of songs about a lot of guys, but that doesn't necessarily mean I've been through a ton of guys. I'm sure she's so insecure about stuff like that, And and she's had responses to different jokes like she I think one time Amy Poeller and Tina Fey made jokes about her and in this similar fashion, probably much more like comedically executed at the Golden Globes or something, and she wrote, well, there's a special place in Hell, I think she said for people like that. And I kind of loved I mean, I hated it at the time because I was like, I'm going to Taylor so as things, I'm going to help because I would have made that joke. Um, but she was just she was just talking and that's just the thing people, it's a turn of phrase. She didn't actually did say. First of all, I forgive anyone who uh. I will react to things sometimes all the time. So the overreaction was what I was mad about. Was like, if such an ocuous joke, why did she gets so upset? And then I go, I think, I know, not only is it just this tired joke, she's still fucking tired of hearing and she's been in a relationship for five years. Why is this even still coming up? And it's also bad for young girls to think that dating a lot and like having experiences is like a a shameful thing, which it's not. So she's she's mad about all that, the example this joke is setting for young girls, the attack on her that isn't even representative of her anymore or never really was. But then I realized, I bet Taylor Swift was had just released these two albums, I was doing a lot of press, getting so much attention, a lot of people's opinions about her everywhere, and she was having maybe she was having a day where it was just like someone sent her something she didn't even want to see, and it was just like, fuck, they're saying this about me, or I look bad in this picture or whatever it is, feeling bad about herself because of something, or just having a day too much attention. She goes, you know what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna watch Netflix. I'm going to check out of my own life and forget that I'm a superstar for a second that everyone has an opinion about and I'm going to live in a world where Taylor Swift doesn't even exist, where I'm not going to be ridiculed or I'm not going to be judged. And she's invested in this show. She's three episodes in the Couch, She's just a normal girl, and then out of nowhere, sucker punched by this dumb joke that snaps her back into it and makes her realize that nowhere is truly safe for her. Only old literature before she existed. Old shows that she is constantly going to have to live her life worried that she's going to be with someone she cares about and they're gonna have to like defend her, or she's gonna have to defend herself. And I got it, I got it. All made sense. So Taylor of every right to send that that tweet because it was what she was feeling in that moment. And we can't pretend to understand someone's circumstance when they act in a way that we don't agree with. So you don't know what happened to me the morning before I start doing my podcast. Maybe I'll tell you. Mostly i'll tell you, but sometimes I don't even know. It's subconscious. So thank you for thank you for that that that amazing, amazing letter, Brandy. I appreciate you. Let's what next? Next up? Oh, it's a voice from Emily. She needs your help. Hey, Noah, Nikki, and Andrew, this is Emily from Minneapolis, and I love the podcast. I've been listening since you up, Um, Nikki and Andrew and I guess Noah too. Um. We're you know, keeping me company during the pandemic. Nikki, you are basically like my best friend in the pandemic. Um. But anyways, so I am going through a breakup and I relate a lot to um, a lot of the break up moments that you describe, Nikki, And I'm breaking up with like the one And I never listened to Taylor Swift before, but now I do, and it's because it's the only thing that truly matches this breakup. And music is great and I think I'm good on that. But like, if you have any advice or recommendations for just like being strong and like trying to be a bad bitch and not cry every day about this stupid breakup and about still wanting to be together with this guy, you know, but anyways, any advice would help from either one of you. UM, I hope that you're having a wonderful weekend. And thank you so much, Jack Pop. I love you so much. What was her name again, Emily? Emily? Oh my god, I hear the heartbreak in your voice and it's like it breaks my heart and I wish I could just like pull you out of it in in like I'm just I'm just racking my brain right now trying to get something that will put together that will help you. But here's my advice. First of all, great job on Taylor Swift. Please DM me and let's exchange the songs that are that get us through the most and I can turn you into some new ones because she has a huge catalog. Um. And I want to also say, check out This American's Life, This American Life. There's an episode called The Breakup and it's exactly this. It's someone writing into This American Life saying I'm going through a breakup. I really need like to just some support and it's just a great episode for that. Also the I saw it last night the episode of Song Exploder on Netflix. Du Alipa's episode she writes a song. She talks about her experience writing a song and she was getting out of relationships that she thought was the one and she wrote a song about when she meets the next guy and how she never thought like she wrote a song from the perspective of a woman falling in love with a guy with someone after going through a breakup, where you thought it was the one, like the next person that you don't even she didn't even know existed, and guess what he did. Like she she ended up writing a song about a mystery person and going and putting manifesting it. She was like, I wanted to do a manifestation song, you know. She was like, just like I didn't even know if I was able to like find someone else, but I wanted to just come from that perspective. And so maybe whatever you do, that's a creative endeavor. Um And even if you don't have one, maybe right in a journal and just right to yourself right now, right to the self that you were in pain, and right to yourself, like right dear Emily. And then you can literally burn these pages afterwards, because if they're embarrassing, and this exercise could be embarrassing right to yourself right now, from yourself in a relationship that makes the one you just got out of look insane, Like just experiment with this. It's just a thing that I would, I would, I would advise myself to do this. I've never even tried this. I've often written notes to myself from God. If you believe in God, you can maybe write a letter to God from you now, and then write what God would say to you like that, Like, right what the person the benevolent spirit energy that wants the best for you? What would that person say in response to the letter you wrote? Those are two exercises I think that would really help. But also turn this into something no matter what, Like right now, you turned it into this. There's art being made right now because of your breakup. And you sound young, and I just want you to know that you truly will get over this person, or you might get back together with this person. And I always want to tell people when they're going through breakups this story and over because you don't want to hear you'll find someone better. You don't want to hear there's someone else out there. You don't want to hear he was a piece of ship. You want to hear you could. It's just not now, But you could be back with this person. Take it from me. I've like gone back to x Is years later. Where you go it's burned to the ground. Don't ever, You don't need to lose hope for being with this person. It's just not now. So no matter what everyone's telling you, there's someone else that someone else might be that person, just at a different time. And also listen to the song Romeo and Juliet by Uh Indigo Girls. It's a cover of the Dire straight song Romeo and Juliet Romano and Juliet get Indigo Girls on Spotify. Listen to that song and think about, um, the Romeo character being this guy asking for you back and uh and and that helped me. Visualizing this guy coming back and singing the song to me someday like on my underneath my balcony made me be able to get through a pretty hard break up recently. Andrewny advice. Yeah, I just think, like to your point, the you know, you said he's the one and and he might be the one, like Nikki said, in the future, but that doesn't mean you have to like wait around for him to like come back, you know what I mean, Like work on yourself, like, uh, understand that you now have time to just be selfish and not care about you know, him or any other Like you're not working on yourself to meet someone else that's gonna take his place. You could just literally focus on yourself and being the best version of yourself. And you have time to do that. That maybe you didn't have before, and so that's all I like, I think the best advice for a breakup is like just like just don't think like how am I going to replace this or how is this going to come back? How can I like take care of myself the best way possible and that's emotionally physically, and you're and you have the time now, which is great if if this is a breakup where you get replaced in his life by someone, or you feel like you were rejected because because of something you didn't do right and you couldn't you're not good enough for this guy, which is mostly how breakups end is you don't feel you feel like you that you don't want to end you when you get broken up with you just go, oh my god, I wasn't good enough for this person. Clearly they're rejecting you. But something that Rachel Finstein told me one time when a guy that there's no reason why this guy shouldn't like me, Like why doesn't? And the truth is they can't. They aren't capable. It's not about it's not because you're not hot enough. It's not because you're not cool enough or whatever enough. They literally a lot of times guys or girls cannot they don't have it within them to love as much as you require loving, needing love, like I require someone to like be pretty obsessed with me and give me a lot of attention, and that is a not for every guy. There is someone out there, though, that will match my needs, and I don't need to diminish my needs. I don't need to be less needy or like want that I need to the exact way. Whatever you want is what you want, and don't feel bad about it. Rachel, remember told me she goes this wanting this guy to love you. He literally is incapable of the kind of love that you seek in a relationship. But he's good to be with a girl who won't require that, who also has the kind of same similar makeup of someone who's like I don't need that. I don't need deep love because she probably can't feel it. So usually people that aren't able to give love tend to seek people who aren't ready to accept love, so they find each other and then that just turns into a big old mess. But I found now that, um, when I get rejected, it might not be true, but I always tell myself they they couldn't love me as much as I needed to be loved. And I looked to the sky and I got rejected recently once. Once, I got rejected recently hard on a thing that I had so much hope for. I was in love all these things, and I got a text that's fermented, fermented, cemented and fermented. It started to stink, and I, uh, you know, I'm gonna get to eat in a from a pickle jar and a little bit. But it ended in this text and I seriously felt I was like, I want to go cry. I can't wait to listen to Taylor Swift, I can't wait to call all my friends. But the first reaction, I swear to God as I looked up like at God or whatever, and I just said, thank you, thank you for protecting me from this person and doing what I couldn't do for myself, letting them take themselves away from me, because that would have caused me a funkload of pain. And I wasn't I wasn't ready to end it even though it you know, it's not good now. And I just said thank you. And I was able to turn that rejection into like God made that happen, like the because I'm not strong enough yet to reject that kind of thing. That's not good enough for me. Someone had to step in and go, no, she doesn't, she can't handle that. Take take that away from her right now. It's like a parent being like he's not allowed to have those sweets. I know you want to, but you can't. He's going to choke on that. And um, you want that candy, but you were going to choke on it, bitch. Also get down, No, do not do that. Brandy now or Emily now. Emily does get a good digger down. Brandy is not listening anymore. We know she dropped. I'm not sure you guys would give her this advice. But something that really helped me during a really, really, really bad breakup where someone broke up with me, uh, is that I just binged comedy. I just watched so many comedy specials and it was it just took it just it was awesome. Yes, try to watch things that like uplift You even watched Ted Lasso. Literally, go watch Ted Lasso Emily immediately. And I only say that as someone who was going through the worst depression last year, and I reluctantly watched it because my friends were in it and I had to for work kind of because, like you know, professional relationships are on the line. If I didn't consume this thing and then I ended up. It got me out of my depression, Ted Lasso. Next voice memo from from Rachel, Hi, Nikoli, Andrew, and Noah. Um, I have two things that will try to be real quick. UM. The first one is I really really really hope y'all add Houston to your tour because, UM, the last show I saw UM was y'all in Houston before everything shut down, and I had just the worst experience. UM right before the show, I was sobbing and I couldn't even enjoy the show because I was just thinking about what it just happened before. And so I'm hoping, um, y'all come back to Houston. I can make up for that really bad experience UM and see yall again and actually get to enjoy it this time. And UM, Secondly, I just wanted to thank both of y'all for always being so open about UM not drinking. I bought that book that Nikki has recommended, and it is a game changer. So I love that y'all are open and positive about that, and um, I'm looking forward to being in the same boat. So thanks again, Love the Pods, love y'all. Oh my gosh, I love her so much. Can I just really quick say I tuned out of what happened that night because I got a text and I got distracted. She didn't say what it was. She but she wasn't able to go. She was able to go, but she couldn't enjoy the show because something bad had happened to her before. Oh no, oh no, And you know what, Okay, I'm sorry. I just wanted to be honest, I did too, not because I got a text that was supposed to be a yes or no and it was like a paragraph and then I got swept into it. So I apologized for that. But um, that was already such a stressful time with COVID. I love your hair, by the way, like that you look so eighties right now? Really, what is it? You were like kind of gazing at me, and I'm like, oh, he's judging me because I smoked pot. He's like thinking I'm off my game today. But really you were like I like her hair. Yeah, I think you look like like if you're what's the wrestling show? In like a hair band right glow, like you could know I'm really leaning into eighties like my hair. You look bad as I like it, Like I like it's crazy, but I just like, thank you headphone hair bad head Um, I uh yeah that it was that show? Was that her last show? It was like Dallas Houston. We did that last week and before things shut down. Um yeah it was. It was a weird show because everything was like coming to an end. It was right before the beginning of the end. And uh, I do hope to reschedule in Houston, and um, sorry for whatever happened to you. That's that's another thing, like you never know what the audience is going through and there and like Noah said to Emily, like watch comedy to get out of your head. Like I do know that people go to comedy shows and like get to forget their worries and sometimes I I mean, I could have brought up something that triggered something for dear uh Lucy what's her name, Rachel, Dear Rachel? Um sorry sorry Rachel. Uh I could have you know, I don't think it sounds like it wasn't something I said, but like, honestly, I've ruined people's nights because of something I said that triggered them. And like I talked about on Bill Maher, like, if I talk about molestation, someone's gonna get triggered. There have been people molested in the audience. That person running too the bathroom having a panic attack. I will apologize to you at to words, but I hope my joke about it that made you suffer will um do more good because all the other people that were able to hear it because they didn't suffer that trauma. But I will have a private talk with you and and and give you my apologies for making you feel that way and try to explain my reasoning and maybe learn that it's not worth it for what I made you feel. But um, and how how many shows have you been to, by the way, like concerts, shows where you got into a fight on the way there and then you hate the person you're with the whole time, or like something up and you're just like not in the mood. There's nothing like worse than when you're in a bad mood and you should be the happiest you've ever been. It makes you more upset because you're you like because you can't be I can't enjoy Dave because you fucking you know, I don't know, didn't pick me up and for like an hour you were an hour late because you're having sex with my best friend man. And now I can't enjoy Dave Matthews. I went to a Lord concert and she was young, so she was like still finding her like stage presence, and it was a cool thing to see, but it was she was a little it was it's actually a good Joe. I don't want to criticize at all. I like, I love Lord. It was after her first album and my X and I on the way there got ice cream and something happened where it was just like I said something, he did something, and it just took a really terrible turn where we weren't we were having that moment where it was a rocky road that's so stupid and funny. Uh. It was it was that cold Stone. I tipped them so they'd start singing and I didn't have to deal with his steely silence. Um. It was at cold Stone, though, but I remember something happened in there and I was just like so sad. He was so mad, and we went to the show and it was like so uncomfortable because all I wanted to do was sing and dance, and I could tell that he hated everything about me and was not gonna want to see me be joyous, and so I was trying to respect that of like not being annoyed. It was awful. We left early, like it, so I wouldn't remember that though before I do shows to like try to either upend that or or just honor it. And I'm just I, I honestly like never thought about sobriety or like like not because I didn't go to a AI, like I didn't like do like certain things, like I had rock bottoms but not like a rock bottom rock. So I never really think about like being any kind of role model in regards to not drinking. But like if we could show that we're cool and fun and chill and can go out and like show other people that, like you can be your best fucking self and being a goddamn rock star without drinking, like that means so much to me, and it really does, and like her acknowledging that, and I don't know, I just like you know, I forget that people that that to me was such an early thing that I had to dispel for people of like, how do you have fun? And now it's been tending almost ten years of not drinking alcohol, and it's like that's so not even it's just laughable that that's the only way you could have fun now. Um, I always say to people, like, the fun you thought you were having, you suddenly are in the Go to the same things, do the same stuff, don't drink, and then see if it's fun. If it's fun, you'll stay, and if it's not fun, you'll just leave and guess what, they won't even know that you love because they're drunk. So what stopping drinking does is make you go towards the things that are genuinely fun and not say the things that are fake fun yes, and they yeah, not things that you don't want to be at that you then try to make fun through drinking. Yeah, you just go, Actually, I don't want to go to that thing. That's only I can only do if I'm drunk. And it's scary. Listen, if you're out there and you're like not wanting to hear this, you're not ready enjoy it and fucking enjoy drinking because it is wonderful, it's good times. But if you're ready to maybe consider stepping away from it like um. Like our listeners shared, Rachel, you can um. I love that she had so many good things that I thought she was a separate caller the UM. You can pick up that book, Alan Gar Easy Way. There's tons of them for alcohol and UM there's one like to Moderate Easy Way to Moderate Drinking. I would just say, go all in on the one that's to stop drinking, and if you're ready the book, take your time with the book. You will start to feel the book working and it gets scary, and maybe you'll put it down because you're not ready to stop drinking. That's what I had to do with the Stop Smoking book. I was not ready to stop smoking, so I was like, I feel it working. I don't like this. I'm not ready to like, so I put it away. But then I had a bad experience with cigarettes, and I was just like, pick it up, read it quick. So just buy the book to have on yourself, to just sit there for when you're having a moment where you're like I really want to be fucking done with this, and then just read the funk out of it and you can drink while you read it. By the way, so you don't have to quit before you read again. That's amber any of the chapter. No, yeah, you'll you'll know to go back. He walks it through. He repeats himself so much because he knows he's dealing with uh, you know. And by the way, I think we're not perfect. I smoke weeds still, so I still. I hadn't eating disorder for most of those ten years. So, like other things get amplified. It's not a fix all, but it definitely was a huge changing effector in my life before and after drinking Brian. Brian has something he wants to get ahead of. Interesting observation. Hey, guys, I'll get this under a minute. That's good advice. On the show today, I just want to comment on Nikki and David's fade, because Nikki, I think that's your guy. I think you guys should go really well together. You know, I've been a fan of his for a little while now, of I think I like it. On five eight hundred fifty pounds, I think I've appreciated seeing, you know what, like a wiry man, you know, a Hollywood just crush it for deathcas. Yeah, like all of the women. It's easy it's pretty impressive. But and you know he's got that sensitive side too, He's kind of got that, he's got that feminine energy thing going. Let's always talked about. I don't know, I think that's Uh. I just wanted to call it out the money because I think you guys have some kid have some real compatibility there and uh yeah, and an opportunity for kind of that you know, mutual admiration, mutual respect, which you know, I'm sure it's probably hard for we look alike certainly, so I think I want to call it now. All right, Thanks Brian. I love this. Uh. People have said this in comments when I've posted hanging out with him, David Spade is truly one of my UM. Being friends with him is one of my greatest accomplishments in life. It feels like just a dream come true. He is someone that I even was talking about yesterday and I said something like, if if you know my my potential husband has a is jealous of my relationship with Spade or uh in any way makes it so I can hang out with him less, I will not entertain that relationship. So it sounds like dating David Spade would make sense. Then, um, but I will say that that is not our relationship. Uh it he when I met him, he had a girlfriend. He is now single, but it just still hasn't taken that gone to that level. And um, and I think I think that's even though I freaking love him and he is sexy and like I see him where there's a reason why David Spide gets women. It's because he's charming as fuck, he's confident, and he's hot. Uh, he just says. Even my mom when we went out to dinner and Ellen, she's like, he looks twenty seven. He looks I mean, he's the same. She was like, hey, Nicky, you got to go out. She was like so sold. Um, but uh, that's like I don't I also like him because he's five seven pounds. Yeah, what do you mean, Oh yeah, she just wants to match up. Yeah it's um, yeah, I'm not I'm not saying it will never happen, because I also I don't put anything off the table. But for now, it's, uh, it's like we're both we both don't want each other. And I could see something like that for you though. I mean, whether it's him or not, I could see, you know, the age gap does like it is pretty I mean, granted, I'm dating year old. I don't really don't know how old he is. I think I looked it up once and I've forgotten it. Um But the thing is I I want to be with someone who is has certain things that they're like. I have certain requirements that he doesn't meet, not because he's not good enough. He could meet them, but I have a lot that he that I don't. I wouldn't meet his knowing what he's attracted to too, So I would say that for us to be together, we'd have to change a little bit, but that would be probably good changes. And who knows. But the age thing doesn't bother me. Wait, what how old does he know him? I think he's probably sixty. Man, I was gonna say fifty two. I'm way off. If he's seriously feeling you've been he has the like the energy, he does eat dinner at five o'clock. But that's but that's only characteristic of him that would lead you to think he's older. He's roccoli. But um no. But my my thing with you is that you don't want kids, So that actually opens up the window I think for you to you could date a hundred and forty year old. It doesn't They don't have to still be alive to throw a football when they're seventeen, you know what I mean, Like you're not having kids, I think opens and it opens of them dying and I having like another love of my life, which is their money. Like you know, like I don't know. I know that sounds I'm saying that, like you think that's a joke, but I'm not. Like I kind of like the idea of an older man, like getting great years with them split either splitting up when it's time to do it or because I don't Also, I don't think relationships should be forever, Like I don't know that I want that. I want to even if something I do want it to be forever, I entertain the fact that it might not be and that's going to be okay, and that might be totally the best thing for us. Well, there's something to be said about dating someone else who kind of also has like a temporary relationship kind of mindset where maybe forever is a little much Yes, yeah, um, And I am like really, I mean I love listening to Dave talk about girls because he's just like he's good with women. I like hearing, you know, like I'm kind of turned on by those stories, not like with my friend Dave, but like I could even like I could see myself being like, oh my god, like that's hot, Like he gets hot chicks. I feel like one of the hot chicks. So um, No, I love I we I love David Spade, and I love that that person thinks that we should be together. It's very flattering. No uh next next caller, Okay, a very sweet message from Paisley. This has anonymous. Hi. My name's Paisley. I m Wisconsin and I listened to the podcast every single day on my way to my slavery job in corporate America. And I say to say that every time Andrew wheezes when he laughs, a little bit of my soul comes back to me. And it's just the best thing that I've ever heard of my life. So thank you Andrew for a weezing when you laugh, and thanks Niki for making the rest of us laugh for real reason. It's not just a weeze laugh. So, oh my god, you know I loved that I let out, you know, the insecure ego really was. I was feeling a little sad that I didn't get a shout out, and then I was like, oh, actually I make the wheezes happen sometimes, even though you a lot of times you are wheezing at your own things that we're laughing at. But I'm just having terrible breathing. I'm getting older. Oh my god, No, people love your wheezy laugh. How long have you been getting told about that laugh and like made fun of it or like, you know, commented on a long time? A long time I used to. I think I used to laugh a little bit louder when I don't know. I think I just the older you get is just like it takes a lot to laugh loud. So I think the weeeze is a way to get to a laugh without killing yourself. Yes, that makes sense, but yeah, I think sneezes and laughs are really Uh. You could study them and learn a lot about that person because they were built of either feeling comfortable with themselves being loud or maybe needing a loud sneeze to get attention because they didn't get a There's a lot of like psychoanalysis that you can because it's the thing you choose. Deaf people don't make a noise when they sneeze. So it's honestly a thing that you're doing that you don't need to do, and it's doing it's doing something socially for you that we you know, we don't know, but there's well, there's definitely something to like laughing loud. The same person that laughs like obnoxiously loud will probably listen to their music on their phone without headphone, like they're not really Oh my god. There's this one Reddit clip that is probably the most amazing video. It's it's famous and it's um because they were sharing things on contagious laughter. Like the subreddit. What is a video that makes you laugh every time you put it on? It is an you find it It is called um uh got old man can't stop laughing? I think it will come up and it's it's at some comedy show. There's a it's like a Branson sque comedy show where they invite three members of the audience and this really funny guy who has a line for everything doing crowd work with these three old men, and the one of the men starts laughing at his banter with one of the other guys sitting next to him, and the guy in the middle is laughing so hard. It's three guys on the stage and it's like a farm setting, and the guy in the middle starts laughing so hard and he's not miked, but everyone on stage is like, holy sh it, this laugh is so crazy. And then the guy keeps saying material with the guy next to him. The laugh doesn't stop. He just gets a microphone and puts the mic in front of this guy. The crowd and everyone on stage laughs for ten minutes straight with nothing happening except this guy's laugh, and it makes them laugh for so long they can't stop now or were you able to find it? Yes? So I would go to about like a third of the way in and we'll get a sample of can you tell people what to search for so they can look at the because I want people to watch the whole video, but we're not going to show it now. Uh funny old man laughing on YouTube. Okay, so here we go. This is the point where the show maybe over. So they're already laughing so much at his laugh. But listen, you guys, this video. How long is this video? Noah, it's nine minutes. Yeah, at three here at three minutes, they do there's six more minutes of hysterical after that. That just and he doesn't want attention. He's just like a sweet old man in a yellow shirt. Yeah. So sometimes I think these laughs that are that thank you know. Uh So, sometimes I think these people are they're just that laugh but a pigsty or something, but it's so cute. I think there was this girl on at our at an open mic and she would laugh like ha ha ha ha and it and it wasn't about everyone hated the like have you ever hated someone's like we all hated because one it felt like she wanted the attention at the open mic, you know what I mean. Yes, we'll try to definitely and uh yeah, and it would actually drown out. Other people wouldn't laugh because her laugh was so horrible. Yes, because well also you're in a room full of comics that are all like pessimists think that sometimes people like sometimes I used to do that. Sometimes I laugh in a way to give support to the comic on stage because I know that they need it as a comedian. So sometimes they'll project a laugh in a way or um. But a laugh can take you off your game a little bit. If it's like that before, where it's just a woman that has a bad laugh and she's not trying to get attention. She's like that guy in the yellow shirt where it's like she can't help it and calling and you don't want to kick her out, but it's so distracted, way possible. Yeah, yeah, it's most heckles are like nice, but yes, one that she can't even help to. That's what everyone asked to like whenever they meet, Like you're a comedian, how do you deal with the hecklers? And it's like easily? Like it's not. First of all, you just talk so much that they never get a chance to say anything. But when they do, throw you. But most heckles aren't like you said, they're usually like they don't even know their head. But it's it does I struggle with it. I struggle with hecklers. I don't like it. I don't want because I will ultimately just say the true thing, which isn't very sometimes. Now I'm finding it. I can handle it now. But there was probably you know, fifteen years that I was never wanted any audience direction because I just didn't trust myself to be funny. But now, um, now I'm just honest and but sometimes I could just create a dip that you're just like, oh yeah, like that the rhythm off the private gig I did on Saturday, I went through a whole hour show and only had one awkward moment in a room of fifty people going up cold. That is, Chris Rock might have the same like thing, not having one awkward moment. I was like, oh, I'm elite, like I I just because but even that awkward moment was still really uncomfortable and I dig myself out of it and I hated it. But those never stopped. You're telling me about that gig and how you handle I'm just like so impressed. I mean I wasn't even there, and I could just tell that you took over that room where and I just know those kind of people just because I'm from Palm Beach like Florida, like, and you just went in there and I don't know, it takes a different level of Like I put on that chair, I had talking with myself and I was like, you are a superstar. They are so excited to have you here. You have been doing this forever. You are truly the Taylor Swift of comedy in terms of like how long you've been at it, what you've accomplished within your field, walk in there like Taylor Swift and I did. I think like what happened? Felt that energy is when people are around people with a lot of money and a lot of wealth, they instantly will go, I don't have that much money, I drive a shoot of your car whatever. I'm not worthy of their attention and you so are. And I do have as much of both is um or I'm on my way to it. But not even some people like but pedestal. I never did that. That would have not that's you think you're putting off. But I don't think around rich people. Yes, even when I was broke, I was just like, you think you're cool. This is all I just want to say. Last night I went to a dinner amazing restaurant in town in St. Louis and so delicious, the greatest ambiance, Louis good. I signed one of the plates because they have famous people signed their plates, and I wrote, um, John Hamm and I had the most romantic dinner here. Thanks date here, Thanks so much for helping a celebrator anniversary or something that I wrote Nick and uh but which I was really proud of all because I know he's gonna see it because it's the coolest place to eat. St. Lucie's from here, so um uh. But I hate the members that the waiter has to come up and tell us every ingredient that's in the specials and do this whole thing that they memorize and they're kind of rattling it off. I hate that when they deliver it, they have to tell you what everything is, even though you know what it is, and they have all these like presentations. And last night I was complaining about I go, I love this place, let's let's get rid of that stuff, and they go, but it's like, that's like the that's that's what some people come here and expect they want that, And I go, it's elitist and it's stupid and it's a waste of everyone's time. It's a waste of that girl's energy to memorize that on the way to work instead of listening to a bunch of songs she might want to play to get her amped for work to be in a good mood. It's a waste of her time to go, oh, the ragular the sauce with the Rigatoni and the baron atse and like like it's making her life worse. She's maybe she likes it, but I'm guessing not. She did a great job of it. Shout out to her um the chef delivering the things and telling us what each of it is. It's like we're It interrupts the conversation that we were having. And sometimes you need that because it's awkward. You need some kind of thing. It feels like it's about the waiter showing off. It's this all this presentation of and slip like the Turndown service. It's all rich people just being rich, and it's pointless and it doesn't add that much more to your life. It just makes people work for you. So you can sit there and go, I'm rich and it serves no purpose. Write it on a menu, right, the specials on a menu. You literally a white board. She can come up to the table and go, I'm gonna leave us here. Do you want me to tell you about it? Number number? But Louis by the way in St. Louis, that is the restaurant in town for Shirt Delicious, and everyone there was so nice and they're just doing people want Yeah, you should uh, next listener mail, go piss. Sorry noh, okay, okay, ANSWER's gonna go pee. And I'm gonna take this one real quick. I'll catch him up. Don't worry. Okay. This one's from Courtney. Hey guys, I was just listening to the Newest podcast and thought I had to tell you this story. In middle school, there was this boy in science who was supposed to read the word organism and fully said orgasm for about like reading maybe three pages of the texts. Everyone. That's what everyone talked about that whole day, about how he was for him and how the teacher had to stop and say, um, it's organism, and then everyone realizing that he was saying orgasm. Your teacher year dropped the ball. Oh my god about that. Oh how crazy? That's cute, like he I mean, I guess because he had like reading problems, So I mean, that's literally how the intro of THEO whoa oh. And it's funny that you remember it. I wonder how you ended up hearing his essay. Maybe we're friends with him. Yeah, that's really cool that he turned that into a good thing, because how embarrassing. And I remember people mixing that those words up and not really knowing what an orgasm was that young. I forget how young you said you were at the time, but like you sometimes think I've just said the most disgusting, bad thing, Like you don't understand that orgasm is like how you were made and it's like kind of scientific, so it's not that just and your teacher's reaction Like That's sometimes why I want to be a teacher, so I can be like, oh my gosh, he said orgasmgasm instead of organism. Oh my gosh, I do that all the time. I that is that is Actually if I heard, like really famous cool people always get that mixed up. So I'd turn it and make it cool for him and tried it. That's what teachers need to do, is like mitigate that stuff. Yeah, peeing in your pants is cool? Yes, yes, all right, um so organism orgasm was the mix up, and he turned it into a college essay this girl told us about. Okay, let's go to stew What ste got to say? Hi, besties, I have a pretty good mispronunciation. I was in my younger years working as an associated Blockbuster video here in Canada. I was approached by a customer while I was working in the aisles. He asked me if the movie Chais had been returned. I looked blankly. I was like, I'm not familiar with Chais. What do you think he was talking about? I don't know. My brain initially went to like cellois, I don't even know if that's the word, And then I'm trying to think of like what I mean. I just let's keep listening. Maybe maybe we'll get another clue before he reveals it, and you, why don't you show me the box and we'll see if we can figure out this one walks over its location in the store, and the movie is in fact titled Chaos. I was able to contain a poker face until the gentleman left the store with my coworkers and to this chick, that is one of my favorite mispronunciations of my life. You would think you would mispronounce it chaos, but but yeah, yeah, I was thinking different. But like, of course, you think of a c H word c H A, you're gonna chaos. That's a chaotic word. Yeah, it's a hard one to spell. I could see you chaotic, Yeah, chaotic. That's funny though, and him trying to like I was thinking maybe it had like if it was saw too or something, you would think it was like sawy because it was s a w I I and he would be like, do you guys have saw we and they're like what you feel like? Though, yes, it would be him not telling him it's chaos. I feel like it's a disservice to the guy. But and it was awkward with him. Yeah, just be honest. That's so funny. All right, more muss pronunciations. Yeah, yess yes, Hey, guys, just here. Such a big fan of the podcast. I've been listening to the first episode. I've got a mispronunciation for you. And this word is something that my teacher said. This is back in fourth grade. We were reading stories for Halloween and she said the word macabrey. I won't give you the real word in case you want to guess what I'm saying. What she said mcabrey, and I knew it was the wrong word at the time, but I didn't want to correct her because I thought I would embarrass her. And we love you knew what pronounced the word maccabb that way. Today we always see I can't say it. I love you, guys. This is the saddest part is like some of these I hear them and I go, what's maccab Like I don't even know what that maccab is. When it's something is very dark and dark and like HALLOWEENI pretty much HALLOWEENI mccabrey actually were It's like abracadabra maccabre. It's kind of a fun it does. I like it like it's a macabre yeah, or it's like a bird a parrot um that's a French parrot, a macaw. Yeah yeah, maccabre. Yeah. I feel like these mispronouncius like mincements.
