437. - New Year's Day

All right, this episode of How Long Gone is brought to you by Stateside with Kai and Carter, a new podcast from The Guardian. And they are using this podcast to slow down the news and wrestle with the questions that we all have about what's happening in the world. And they do it three times a week, Jason. Does that sound familiar to you? We don't really talk about, you know, a lot of international global news items and climates and cultures and sports and things like that. We do talk about fashion and wellness, but for everything else, Kai and Carter are a great place. All right, so who couldn't use more news? Listen wherever you get your podcasts. or watch on YouTube. We're going to talk about our resolutions. What kind of resolution? Are there any other resolutions other than New Year's resolutions? Or is that pretty much it? Not that I know of, but I kind of, on the way over here actually. What are your winter solstice resolutions? I was stopped at a red light. I was checking the Instagram app. Yeah. How you be doing? One of my favorite high-end resellers, Justin Reed, was posting him and his boy unloading a crate, and it's a Chrome Hearts. weight bench okay and i was like that's what i need for my resolution like to to like really keep my fitness you know top of mind i think a 50 000 you know chrome hearts bench that's a piece that you build a house around that's 100 yeah you buy the bench and then you go on zillow.com and see where where would this fit the problem is i think it would in our current residence it would have to be kind of um outdoors which It's kind of Miami style, like outdoor gym vibes. It has to be covered like a vintage car. I feel like you can't leave it outside like jailhouse vibes. In your neighborhood, you need 24-hour security on that thing. Oh, I have 24-hour security, obviously. After I met with Kanye, it's been kind of rough.

I'm joking. Wow, I'm getting flashbacks from last night. How long gone? It's a New Year's Day podcast. The rain, torrential downpours in Los Angeles. The skies are clear-ish. For just a few moments. Jason looks like he got hit by an 18-wheeler. I disagree. I don't look that bad. If I wasn't wearing this comfy swag... I would probably be like halfway decent. Yeah, that's true, but you're not. So, I mean, I think we can just kind of... Can we just imagine if I had a smart little put-together outfit on right now? If you're wearing one of your Zara suits? No, no, no. I mean, that's too formal for NYD. NYD. So, New Year's Day, it's... I got my Gatorade cucumber pepino limon. Cucumber. I'm about to guzzle that. I've already had one orange Gatorade, one liquid IV inside an Athletic Greens bottle. Don't tell them. And I made a full breakfast. I was more excited about my NYD breakfast than NYD. Last night we're at our friend John's house to celebrate the New Year, and Jason is, as he's guzzling. um mushroom infused tea and molly water he's telling me about his what didn't i go hangover remedy which he had pre-bought all of these supplies to kind of i'll tell you no i'm old ladies of course i'm not single doing shit like this of course i'm not single all right i told you to shower did you do that Fuck no. Okay. I had a feeling you didn't. I can tell by looking at you. Imagine if I showered. Yeah, except I have like Chrisley knows best bed head going on right now. Don't look big. You know what? 2023 resolutions free Chrisley. That's what I'm that's off rip. That's what I'm trying to do. Tax evasion is not a crime, especially if you're gay. But I don't. All of that is true. So, Jason, last night we went to John's beautiful home and celebrated New Year's with an intimate group. It was foggy up there on the hills. The rain was – honestly, I'm not exaggerating. It might have been the most rain I've ever seen in L.A. Speaking of Florida or Miami, it was – Yeah, it was torrential. It was torrential. It was not –

monsoon-like, but it was not not monsoon-like. I was telling John, we need to check the levels today, because I don't want that pool to kind of overflow. Check the levels. Yeah, we've got to check the levels. I feel like there's some sculptures back there that don't need to touch water. Obviously, it's salt water. It's just something to think about. Oh, God, I didn't even think about that. Something to think about. Some of the fresh water mixing with the salt. You're going to lose your alkalinity. We have to stop the podcast. I think I'm going to throw up. The healing properties are just washed away. No, it's fine. Just rain. It's fine. It's God. It was like a potluck situation. I'm in the back of the lift. I went for the lift black car. Jason said I'm popping out on New Year's. It was like a 2006 Acura mini SUV. Unfortunately, yeah, we should kind of take a look at the corporate paperwork of what the requirements are to be applied at Lyft and Uber. Because I feel like Uber might be a higher threshold. That's the lies that the liberal media is trying to tell you about. I don't think the liberal media is protecting Uber, but sure. Whenever, like, I always talk to my guys. Oh, you talk to the driver, okay. No, I'd be talking to the driver, especially my Armenian brethren. Happy New Year's to them. Every time I get in the car, when I get, like, a Lyft Lux, and that's where you get, like, a nice car, it's always the Lexus hybrid kind of, like, mini wagon. Yeah, which costs, like, $40,000 brand new. And they're like, oh, I bought this car because it's the cheapest car that gets you Lyft Lux. And I was like, don't tell me that. You're like, I noticed that the mats are rubber. So I was pretty sure that if you could spray this thing out, it shouldn't be. But the irony is when you get that Lexus and you see that it's obviously a nice car, nice leather and crazy screen, it's a great car. And it's like a disappointment. But then when you do the same thing and like a Tesla Model 3 comes, which is the same price and maybe even shittier, you're like,

Ooh, Tesla. No. I mean, the problem is... At least I am. You're like, ooh, fancy. I'm getting picked up in a Tesla car. The only... Black should only be late model Suburbans. Well, they fucked up because they got black, and then they have black XL. Yeah. I want late model Suburban Escalade if I have to, but I like a more... I like a Suburban. Not to be confused with Bounce XL, which is an urban tele... television channel i'm not familiar with that okay so what do they play on balance xl what kind of programming just like people who are on girlfriends reruns i fucking wish no it's all new shit it's like oh it's like child actors from like nickelodeon and and like upn and yeah those network shows from when we were kids are like 43 and have sitcoms on Bounce XL. Bounce XL sounds like one of your little DJ nights, so I'm surprised. Well, I only know about it because you know when you have a Samsung smart television? I do, actually. And you turn it on. Oh, and it's on the... And it has a mind of its own. It's just like, today we're going to do some real... Today it's the weather, now it's like a NASCAR race, but lately it just pops up Bounce XL. Dude. I would pray for Bounce XL because, you know, mine's Gordon Ramsay only. It only shows me Hell's Kitchen. Are you serious? Every time I turn on my TV, Hell's Kitchen is on. I mean, I'm talking like literally every single time for a year. Which is so weird because I'm the foodie. And you're the one who amplifies black voices. It's very confusing. It's almost like the guys down at Samsung switched them at birth. They're watching us and they think it's funny to mess with us. Dude, that's the new 2023. My first script is already in the can. Instead of getting switched at birth like the 80s movies where the babies get switched in the nursery. Our algorithms get switched at first. Damn, this is honestly good stuff. I know, right? Yeah. I start seeing fucking burial demos, and you have to see a Fall Out Boy throwback video. We're just constantly scratching our head in bewilderment. This feels like something Jason would like. And then you turn 40, and then you're like, I think we should switch our algos back. I see. Oh, yeah, we have to go back.

Anyway, sorry. I'm in the Acura and I got this. How many black ice air fresheners are in this thing? It was good. It was like an Armenian grandpa. Really nice guy. He was super chill helping us with our stuff. You know that thing where you make a dish? You don't know this thing. I have my dish that I'm going to bring to the potluck and we're running late. So you have this hot thing that just came out of an oven that's sitting on a towel on top of a baking sheet so it doesn't burn you, and you have to hold it in the car while you drive there so it doesn't spill. This is why I go to restaurants. You've never done this before. No, I literally did this last night, and it wasn't great for me. But you were driving, and Bay was carrying an icy platter of shrimp, right? Yeah, but a few did escape. Oh, no. That's right. Is there a chance that there's still a shrimp inside of one of the crevasses of your vehicle? No, no, no, definitely not. One fell out on the walk out of the house, and I thought... You love shrimp so much, there's no way you're going to leave anybody behind, right? I thought it was pretty funny, but I did pick it up and throw it into the street. And then another one... The opulence of just throwing a nice jumbo shrimp into the street. And I believe one fell out in the car because there was like a, oh my fucking God, this skirt is silk. And I was like, well, this is why we should have done this when we got there. But that wasn't received well. But you had a piping hot pork shoulder. No, no, no. I did a standing rib roast. Shout out to my butcher, Jared, over at Standings on Melrose. We're not shouting out butchers on this program. He has a great selection of organ meats and primal cuts. I'm hoping that this butcher is organic. Oh, bro. Okay. I mean, you open that fridge full of beef, and it just smells like a nice glass of milk. Okay. Floral. Sure. Grains. So it doesn't give manure like I would expect. No, no, no. This is top quality shit. I would assume. I know you wouldn't feed people some garbaggio. I got the standing rib roast. That was already all cooked, wrapped, ready to go, ready to finish all the minute over there.

She made like this potato au gratin thing. And it had like a Gruyere cheese as part of the Quattro Formaggio composite. One of the four, one of the Quattro was a stinky Gruyere. So I had this piping, like I had to hold it from certain angles or else my hands would burn. I hope you tip this guy because if you got in my car some stinky food, I'd be asking you guys to maybe. I tipped him. Okay. I gave him a 20%. That's good for you. Yeah, and a 20% tip on a New Year's Eve car ride to the Hollywood Hills was only $74. That is pretty good. For the tip, not for the total. Well, that's why you didn't go Black XL. I definitely spent like $300 yesterday on Lyfts alone. That's the beauty of not drinking. So, yeah, I should have just white-knuckled. I should have just driven drunk last night. Yeah, definitely. I mean, it's hot on the streets. The smell of that gruyere. I almost felt like the gruyere smell sitting on my lap. It was going up under my shirt and then coming out straight from my collar of my The Row shirt that I just got for Christmas. Right into my nostril. You like that, though. It's foggy. You can't see anything. And we're winding up those hills over there in the canyon. So I'm just sitting here holding this piping hot thing, correcting my... My equilibrium. The G-forces are going crazy. This was an accident when it happened. The headwinds, the tailwinds. You're saying TJ was able to maintain a tight grip on his gratin. Yeah, you're holding the gratin and some molten cheese touches your finger. It's like a Shake Shack veggie burger. Your reaction is to release it. Of course. But I can't. I have to hold on. But if you did that, you would finally be banned from Lyft. Can you imagine? My passenger spilled an entire... Quattro Formaggio and my fucking floorboard. They're like, I wish they just fucking puked like everyone else. That'd be much easier to clean up. Yeah, so... Yeah, sorry about your shrimp. What were we talking about? How did the standing rib rest taste? Oh, it's a great flavor. Okay, so you killed it then. I killed it. It was pink all the way through. It looked a little too pink, but what do I know? It was a little on the rare side, but...

That's what people like though, right? Like it's cool to eat rare meat. Yeah, definitely. What if, what if it's more of a, it's a female trait to like, uh, like a rare meat more I've found. Yeah. But I just don't like, what is the, is it just a flavor thing or is it like, no, it's more of a texture, texture. That's a texture thing. And also it's like a moisture thing. The, the less cooked it is, the more moisture is in there. Sure. And the dryer, the more cooked. Okay. So I want mine kind of burnt. I want like a jerky style. Yeah, I bet you do. You want a Trumpian. Yeah, I was just at 7-Eleven. You got to get black and blue is a cool way to do it. Grabbing some water, and I noticed that they have, what's the fucking beyond meat jerky at 7-Eleven? Why, bro? I just, I don't, I mean, we've been over this many times how nasty that is, but I didn't know that they'd gone as far as to make jerky. It's too far. Jerky is one substitute that doesn't really need to happen. Jerky is one of the nastiest things. When I see somebody cracking one, a big thing of fucking lynx on the plane, and that smell, that's one of the nastiest smells on fucking planet Earth. Honestly, I agree. Wow, that's good. I'm glad to know that. I'm sure it tastes good. I'm sure it's good. If you like to chew meat like gum, I'm sure it's delicious. I think if you get a really good artisan one somewhere on a roadside farmer's market in Santa Fe, it's probably banging. How is jerky made? That's a great question. I honestly don't know. It's dehydrated. It's dehydrated, but I think they say that it was created by the cowboys or the settlers or whatever where you'd get some meat and then as you're on the trail on your horse, you would store the meat like underneath the saddle or something like that. Oh, and it would occur. And it would occur naturally. I don't know if that's true or if that's the inception of it. I would love to pick a little horse hair out of my jerky when I pull it off under my hot leather saddle. Well, they vacuum sealed it first, of course. They backed it. Oh, no. They're not crazy, dude. This is a pro operation. Yeah, I found there was a nice light fish as well that I enjoyed last night. A little branzino, rosemary. The Oberg tiramisu was...

Magnifique. Did you do the cocoa powder sneeze? Of course. Roy did it, too. I was like, bro, this happens to me. I can't bite one. Yeah. I mean, the matcha is the worst one, though. Yeah, the matcha is the worst one. Well, yeah, that powder, it's so fine that it gets into your bloodstream almost. You inhale it, and you can feel it going inside of your body, like a foreign object, like a China virus. Speaking of bloodstream, Jason was drinking more than usual, I would say. I felt like you were really sucking down the move. Well, I mean, to me, it's like, okay, it's New Year's Eve. What am I going to do that's different and special? Like where normally you go out and you're like, yeah, I'll have a martini, have some wine, whatever. But if there's five bottles of champagne sitting there and everyone's a fucking personal trainer who's sober at this party, so it's just me. Why not just drink bottle after bottle of champagne while you're doing drugs? I know. But I could see it in your eyes. Usually I can't tell when you're effed up. I didn't even feel effed up. You looked effed up. Yeah. Looking back now, that does click. You looked effed up and you were kind of like sinking into your chair a little bit.

In a way that, not that you have great posture to begin with, but just in a way that you looked a little, your constitution was weakened by the substances. But you were being cool. I mean, it was fine. You didn't mess up or anything, I don't think. I left a little before you. I messed up real bad. But Jason, so you were... I hit a guy with my car. I mean, look, man. Daddy said it'll be okay. Yeah, it's fine, dude. It's fine. Look how much Sarah Jessica Parker's husband works still. He killed somebody. It's fine. I forgot about him. What's his name? Matthew Broderick. Broderick. Robert, he took a left on Fountain. It happens. That happened to me in Palm Springs. I was trying to take a left on the main street, and the guy behind me was honking at me, and I fucking flicked him off, and somebody was like, you can't go left here. I was like... but my bad bro i turned around and apologized i did feel bad that was like a real stupid move of me of mine um so you're okay so you're sucking down i'm witnessing jason suck down the champagne um yeah blasting hestias outside with the dogs and then I was also enjoying Adam Levine's tequila. Well, enjoying is a strong word. It went in my body. We made a new friend last night, a listener of the show, Sophie. And she brought a great bottle of Adam Levine's. I think him and Pahadi maybe launched this together. It unfortunately looks a little bit like the Whispering Angel bottle shape.

And I believe the tequila even had kind of a pink tint, too. It looks like if something special studios redesign Whispering Angel Rose. That's actually true. The bottle, it's nice looking. No shade. It looks cool. They do great work over there. Shout out to Sam. But Jason instantly pours a couple healthy shots for himself. Yeah, into a champagne flute. And what was your review? It was pretty bad. The problem with it is the whole selling point around it was it was the faintest color pink. And there's no way that that occurs naturally, I'm assuming. Well, you've never been to Yelizko. I mean, my agave plants that I harvest with the Jenner family, actually, it's weird, but they do produce kind of like a pinkish. Every once in a while, Kylie pulls up a pinky. Yeah. Like when you get the coconut water. Yeah, exactly. That's what I'm saying. It's kind of like that. It's just kind of like. And Kylie finds. Every time she's like a truffle pig. Well, we only work with the finest local growers. So it's kind of like a thing. And you love agave growers. We do. We do. But yeah, so it's got a pink. It has a floral. So it's too floral. Well, it's all artificial. So it's in the way that like a cleaning spray or like a hand soap has that kind of flavor. But the alcohol itself was that of, you know, Fabuloso. Floor cleaner mixed with rubbing alcohol. So you're having some of that. That being said, I did have another glass. Yeah, I noticed that. That's what I was going to say. When there was other better tequilas just with an arm's reach. Well, I know you like to try new things. Oh, yeah. I'm a big try guy. And then you had this black market mushroom no reishi tea. Yeah, space tea. Shout out to my space tea family. So you were going to the fucking moon Pluto style. I mean, that's the problem. I did. I did all these drugs, and I don't ever recall feeling high. Let me tell you why. Let me tell you why. As a person who knows how to get high, you're a pussy. And this is the problem, is that everybody now...

I just want a little bit. Everybody limps in. I just want a little bit. I did a limp dick amount of drugs. You've seen me basically OD on Molly before the dinner is served. That's right. Before our mains at the table. Let's keep tapping the vial until the champagne's looking cloudy like I'm at a fucking college bar. And I don't know. I guess that's all it boils down to. No, it really does. Everybody just wants to do a little bit, which is, I get it, but also you're not going to get high if you do a little bit. That's the problem. Maybe there's lucky body chemistry that happens every once in a while, but that's not going to happen every time. Yeah, I guess if I just have, like, my half a gram of psilocybin and I'm, like, in, like, my jacuzzi with, like, a big alkaline water, then I will, like, feel some – I think I feel it a little bit. But if I'm, like, chain smoking and doing tequila shots, the subtleties of that high are going to be stepped on. I just don't think that – I just think that microdosing has ruined drug use, to be honest. you're right but the problem was it was not i didn't want to be fucking licking the walls at a party full of sober people you know i don't think you but i i if i was at a real i still wouldn't see you've never done that i've never seen you that fucked up thank god keep it that way and it's it but it it hammers home the fact that you are in fact a pussy but i i just don't know why i just don't like i fix jason i as promised i was able to fix jason a high-end Molly water. Maybe the highest in Molly water ever created. What brand is that water called again? Ophelia? Bro, don't talk about it. It's called Ophora. O-P-H-O-R-A. Yeah, they sell it at... You know when you buy a curious jug of apple cider upstate, and it's got that big jug with a one-finger holder? It's my favorite season. It's Honey Crisps. Yeah, it's Cosmic Crisp season. Yeah, you poured me up. Some of that nice water. That's probably why I'm feeling so good today. I drank almost that whole thing of water. Yeah, I know you did. I barely got a sip in. The glass cider-style jug of the oxygenated water, it was $25.99, I think, at Air One, and it was the first beverage to go. Yeah, I'm sure.

There were bottles of champagne, tequila. I also bought every sparkling water they had at Monsieur Marcel to try. So I was down 50 on water once we walked in, but I was able to make Jason a high-end Molly water cocktail. And do you think that that took away, maybe, from the powerful? nature of molly i think maybe the oxygen do you think the chemistry was fucked up the ph balance was too powerful yeah it could have negated the the qualities of molly oh it it usurped it as well as negated but other people were in molly it's like when you pour baking soda on a stain and it just yeah but you see other people seemed a little more high but that could have been because it was in champagne I don't know why. How was your number one? What's your number one way to ingest Molly? I guess. I mean, the problem is when I would do it before, you would get a capsule of Molly and you just swallow it. And then 45 minutes later, you're seeing God making out with a bus boy. Sure. Making out with a valet driver. Sure. so but nowadays you just like let me just get one grain of sand yeah molly and just it's literally like what is the point what is the point of this like i i don't i truly don't understand yeah i don't want to be the one person that's the problem if everyone else around me is fucking chewing their face off all right let's tip that bag let's go sure but i don't want to be the one guy i'm already like saying dumb shit enough as it is that's true and that luckily that didn't stop I'm already a liability. You are. You don't feel that bad today, so I guess that's a win, but you also didn't get that high, so that's an L. So I guess it's even. I did go to bed at like 4 or 5 in the morning. So we left the hills after the rain had stopped and the fog had cleared. It's probably like 145 or something, 130. Oh, now I know what song. I've got to remember, Let the Rain Fall Down. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I was going to suggest some modest mouse, actually, RIP. Damn.

But we left. And then Jason, though, in classic TJ form, went to another party 45 minutes away from the party that we were at. Closer to your house, but very far from where we were. So what time did you arrive at Pia and Davide's? I don't fucking know. All I know is me cross-eyed looking at the lift where it's like, oh, great, $170 or whatever it was. I don't know. And when you got to a party. Yeah, maybe we'll say, when did you leave? Like 1.45. Really? You stayed that late? Yeah, bro. Or no, maybe it was, yeah, I think so, or 1.30. It was later than I fucking wanted to. I mean, one minute after midnight is later than I wanted to be there. Don't be a New Year's Scrooge. I mean, as a known holiday hater, New Year's is, I can't decide if it's more offensive or less offensive because there's absolutely no purpose. There's no fake birthday. You know, there's no fake settlement of land. Yeah, this is a man-made calendar. It's literally like the calendar changes and we're celebrating that. Even though the calendar changes every day. Wouldn't it be cool if every month, every time there's a new month, we had like a micro New Year's Eve party? I mean, it goes with your micro dosing. All right, bro. March 1st is here. We're having a kickback at my crib. I got a table March 1st if you guys are in town. Bro, I can't believe it's been another 30 days around the sun. My resolutions for March 2023, man, I mean, I just got to get better. You know what I'm saying? I just feel like I haven't been spending enough time with myself. I don't know. But, yeah, there's been a lot of interesting content around the new year. And I pointed this one out on Twitter yesterday, but there's a new thing where it's people kind of write this sentence. for a caption of multiple photos on their Instagram grid where it negates itself. It's like, this year was challenging and rewarding. And it's like, you know that kind of canceled each other out, but it's also saying nothing like most people are trying to do. And it's like, here's a photo of when I met Guy Fieri at the airport. With the photos, I think the mix of photos that I've...

done enough research to that i think the perfect combination what i've seen the most is there's unfortunately food always makes it in of course a couple of travel photos that show you've been to paris and maybe a beach destination but my whoa so you mean like a wait and i've i may be the first person to say this i don't want credit but it's kind of like a high and low that's right together and then like have you ever had like What if you had like caviar with like a potato chip? It's crazy. And so it literally would be a picture of caviar and a potato chip. Yeah. A picture of a beach in Mexico. A picture of a European destination, of course. And then maybe here's like a stray cat that I saw in Amalfi. Then I fed him one of my tinned fish. And then my favorite. He's so cute. Well, there's three of my favorites. One is the stack of books. that you definitely didn't read what i read this year and it's like 15 books and when they only read like a real estate book they did yeah they definitely read a self-help book and then there's there's the hot selfie where you can maybe see a little titty and then the goofy selfie yeah it's like i'm hot but i'm cool like i'm not like i'm not just tna i'm cool and funny i'm a creative project manager I put a baguette on top of my head. It does not go there. It does not go there. Don't take a photo of me. I have a baguette on my head. This is crazy. Don't take a photo of me. I'm in a tiny bikini and there's a baguette on my head. Well, it's weird because every year for Christmas, Carolyn will do... one of those custom calendars, like a little. And every month will be a photo from that month last year. It's a cute. So we kind of do that already now. Yeah, but that's for private use. That's for private use. But now I'm wondering if I should do that. No, you shouldn't. Okay. No, please, God, don't. What if I did like a caption that was like 2022 Lucy's? Yeah, I like that more for you. Just like loose photos through the year. Because they're just like stuff.

If you want to try to put them in one category, good fucking luck. Because they're all over the place in terms of being random. So these are like crazy photos from the last year that you didn't really have a home for? But I thought they were special enough to share with you guys. I was still able to heart them throughout the year. Honorable mention. Yeah, it's an honorable mention. But yeah, the resolutions are unfortunately still solely focused on mental health, I feel like. You're talking about yours or the world? No, fuck no. I'm talking about the world. I feel like it used to be like, I'm going to get in shape and now that's not cool. And saying I'm going to make more money isn't cool. So you have to say like, I'm going to work on me. I'm going to normalize saying no. Yeah, exactly. I'm going to like save space for myself. I'm saving the space to work on me and I'm cutting out the negativity. I'm not saying yes to any jobs that I don't want this year. Don't get me wrong. I love the money. I love money, but if I'm not going to put it in my book and it doesn't fulfill me spiritually, I'm willing to walk away from that. I'm willing to walk away from that because I need to... Creatives, we need time for ourselves. Dude, I'm so glad you said that. Like creatives need time to like rest. And I need, and it's weird, but like to like set up like boundaries and you have to communicate with your partner or otherwise they'll be confused. And they're like, are you being emo right now? And you're like, no, I'm creating. Every single person. Every single resolution is about creating boundaries. Like, what boundaries do you have? Like, you're a fucking 28-year-old creative project man that lives in Bushwick with a fucking roommate. What boundaries do you have? Like, what are you talking about? The boundaries are the next time my roommate eats all my fucking Greek yogurt, I'm going to say something this time instead of passively aggressively putting the empty container in the trash can in their room. I'm really upset that my boyfriend...

He made me, like, split the check at Bonnie's. And I'm just a little bit, like, I just, I don't know. It's fine. We can do that if that's how you want to have this relationship. I'm empowered and, like, I work and I earn money. But I just think it's funny that, like, I thought it was a date. There's a lot of people that would love to pay the whole bill for me. Yeah, I'm just creating boundaries. And they're not as fun as you. When my mom texts me, I'm not going to respond until I'm ready to respond. Dude. That is major. It's major. That is major. It's major, right? And I just think these are the kind of things that we should be focused on. Like, oh, you want something from me? And I should give it to you? But you know what? I don't feel like it right now. So I'm just not going to do that until my energy is kind of there. Just because you gave birth to me doesn't mean that I owe you fucking jack shit. I don't owe you shit. Oh, you want a picture from Christmas? You didn't give birth to me. I escaped your womb. Prison break. You know what, Mom? I need to talk about some stuff with you. My therapist said we need to talk, and I'm thinking about birth in a different way. Dude, take it all the way back. But this is what people are talking about, and it's just like I just don't – we've talked about this before, but I really do think that we're going to look back on this period of time and be like every single person was looking so inward that it backfired. This is how you get Andrew Tate. Yeah, literally dumb people thinking that they need to... We went so inward that nobody was keeping an eye out on the outside. Exactly, exactly. And that's how we have Nazis again. I'm like, how do you spend... I guess the real question is, are people actually doing it, or are they just saying they're doing it because it's yet another trend? You're not saying that people would virtue signal on social media. I mean, I wouldn't say that. That's something maybe you would say. I wouldn't say that. That's the difference between us and everyone. The only difference between us and everyone else is we know that we're not going to do any of that shit, and we don't bother writing it down in our notes app and screenshotting it, and you...

You take an hour to do that, and that's it. And those aren't real likes that you're getting. No, those aren't real likes. Those are fake likes. Sympathy likes. Yeah, you go. It's like on Back to the Future where they pull up the photo of the family, and they start getting blurry. Six months from now, you're going to pull up your photo. You're like, that New Year's Eve post, I got 788 likes. You pull it up in June. We're into about 300, 400. They're gone. It's half. Yeah, they start going away. But I don't know if – yeah, I don't know if – I guess before in polite society when it was just like if you have problems or you feel like you have problems, you go see a professional and you talk about it and you work through those problems or you talk about it with your close friends or your family like a normal person has become now I need to share that in a newsletter that you pay for. Or on my Twitter and Instagram accounts that you follow me for to see hot pictures of me or food. And it just doesn't – I don't understand why these things can't be just taken care of. Like I'm not saying these aren't – there's not real issues. This is real stuff that people need to deal with. I just don't understand why it needs to be like in the public domain at every turn. start doing therapy and you're proud of yourself and you'll talk to your friends and be like, wow. It's like, cause we've all been there at first. You know what I mean? We've done the first thing I realized once I like finally had my first breakthrough was like, this is dope. But also like, I wish I started doing this 10 years ago, man. Like I had so much, like you would do that. But now people don't have like those types of friend, like IRL friendship communities. It's just all of your friends online. So you're just like, Yeah, I guess that's true. Today I did a dope thing at therapy. I'm sharing with my Discord family that I had a breakthrough today with my therapist. If you guys want to talk later, let me know. They're proud. They're proud of a tiny victory. Yeah, no, and I think that being proud of a tiny victory is fine. I think the issue is... Is it because the world was easier back then? So a tiny victory...

back then no i think people just shut the fuck up back then because i don't think it was necessarily easier i think there was nowhere to blab besides like the telephone or email you know so it's a little bit as a little but i also think that the there's nothing emails coming back coming back next year definitely 100 but i think the two things that you're rewarded for online the most are being hot and oversharing so it's like and if it's something that's also emotional oh baby We're unhiding likes. Bro, if your old-ass uncle died last week, oh. I just want to let you guys know we did lose my uncle. I haven't talked to him in 20 years. And he didn't help raise me, but he was a family member. You beat the shit out of my mom. But back in the 70s, he was low-key kind of a zaddy. I mean, that's my favorite part is when it's like, I need privacy at this time. Bro, your dead uncle in 83, he could low-key get it. Yo, your dead uncle in those short shorts in Miami in 79? Now? No way. He's six feet under. But 48 years ago, when he was 19 and hanging out at the beach, oh, man. I low-key would have topped him off. But I think that the, like, that kind of, like, I wanted to say that we did lose my uncle. I want some privacy at this time. If you want fucking privacy, then don't talk about it. What do you mean? You're not a celebrity. You're not famous. Comments are close. It's not like this is going to leak and people are going to be asking you questions about your fucking uncle that lives in Ohio and how he died. No one gives a shit about this. Hey, Steven here, Daily Mail. Just a couple questions. so clarify so yeah no no i know you work um at the on the agency side at flamingo estate but i also i saw that your uncle died and we were just hoping to get some information about that like what is this going to affect your work on the adidas account are you going to be able to kind of like power through i sent you a dm if we could uh get approval on posting some of these photos because he really actually was zaddy so i'm

If you're uncomfortable, you can find me on Signal. I'm on Telegraph. We'll credit you. We'll credit you, of course. They're your photos. We would never want to infringe on that. If you could let us know, because we're working on the title for the piece, and it is Chris's dead uncle is a zaddy. Not even your last name. You want to be at the point where you're like Prince or Madonna. Yeah, sure. Where you're like, oh, that's just Chris. That's just Chris's dead uncle. He's a zaddy. Who's the most famous Chris? This is a struggle I deal with all the time. Jenner? With a K, it's different. Don't count? No. Why not? I would say, well, the Hollywood Chris is my competition. Pratt, Pine. There's a few others. Speaking of. I mean, sorry for our listeners. Chris doesn't have a pop filter on right now, but that prat into the pine. I'm sorry. I apologize. You probably tweaked a couple eardrums right now. Don't worry. All you guys blasting this on your Ohas speakers, you can adjust. I'll clean it up. I'll EQ out some of those. Yeah, but they're famous, but they're just like in the other world for me. No, I know what you mean. I mean, I can't think of a Chris. I don't know, man. I think of Chris Cornell, rest in peace. But I'm not even like a fan. I don't know why that comes to mind. I don't know either. I don't know. It's like literally the most popular name in the world. I know, but I can't think of anyone besides the Hollywood Chris's. Hollywood Chris's. Which, again, I'm a part of that community. Check us out on Discord. You remember when I told you I got added to that? Oh, yeah. The group chat on Instagram was all guys named Chris Black, and I didn't respond for a couple days. I'm like, oh, blue check asshole. They're responding to the chat. You too good for us, Chris Black? We're the same as you. Yeah, maybe there was a time. There's a gay black comedian named Jason Stewart, and I used to DM him once a year and be like, when are we going to pod, baby? And he would never respond.

And now I'm way more famous than his dumb ass. So now I don't even want. Jason Stewart, don't come on the podcast challenge. Chris Pine, Chris Pratt, definitely come on the podcast. Neither of those guys. I would not want to podcast with either of them. I want to podcast with Chris Pratt for sure. To do what? To be like, bro, why are you so bad? why the fuck are you like a blue lives matter freak when you married it's just the whole he's the whole his whole shit is crazy i have one question for you why are you so bad like you're married to anna faris who is clearly a psycho but at least she's like funny head bananas though yo the head is definitely oh you know what i mean she's going she's going sicko mode but yeah i don't know why the i don't know why the fact that he's gone like christian family man and married uh a kennedy relative is pretty crazy he definitely seems like the kind of guy who wants to like watch his wife have sex with with other guys yeah but he wears like he wears like a camo digi camo jacket with the black american flag patch to go to like to go to bristol farms in brentwood he sits in the corner of the hotel room at the line and he's got his full army fatigues on And he just takes apart and puts back together an AR-15. Wow, this chick's getting her back blown out. Uh-huh. That's exactly right. Again. That's what he's doing. Babe, quiet. No, I can't. Shh. I'm going to order another scallion pancake from room service. You guys need anything? This shit is dope. I've never tried it before. So this is like, this is Asian food? This is sick. Because it looks like a... It kind of, like, tastes like a fry. They don't have this at pick-up sticks. I'll tell you that right now, brother. So we were looking at, we were talking about ins and outs lists, about how they're just lists of things that people like. It's not really predictions whatsoever, but friend of the show, Caroline Polachek, who will, she'll be coming on next. Yeah, Jason is certified Polachek, so he's very excited. I was revisiting Pang a couple days ago. It was a rainy day listen.

I mean, So Hard to Hurt My Feelings is like a classic. It's a classic. It is. It's a classic. Yeah, new album coming out, end of the month, and she'll be on here. Knock on wood. Shout out to our dog, Jim E. Stack. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But she posted an ins and outs list that I actually liked. And this doesn't have anything to do with you wanting to have intercourse with her or anything? No, no, no. We're just friends. Okay, okay. We're cool, bro. It's like an industry thing. She's like family. Okay, out. She does out first. I like that. Crochet is out. Okay. How do you feel about that? Crochet was big this year. That was every person, that was like their project, right? I don't really feel anything about that. I would like to learn how to knit at some point, like when I'm old and I'm just like. Really? I don't know. It seems like a nice thing to do. Are you sick with your hands like that? Oh, bro. My motor skills with my hands are great. Okay. Maybe you should learn to work on a car or something a little more manly. I know how to work on a car. Bitch, no, you don't. Yeah, I used to change my own oil. That's not working on a car. I mean like doing something real, like take an engine and put it back together. Yeah, you want me to just drop the tranny out of this Pontiac? Exactly, yeah. Figure out, get in there. I can't tell you what's going on until I kind of get in there and take a good look at it. I bought this vintage GTO. It's a project. That's why I got Carolyn's dad those gloves with the flashlights on them. Because when you're doing work in that steering column. Carolyn's dad ain't working on the steering column of a 2022 Porsche. Okay, that's not something you work on. He's going to use it for some of his fun projects around the house. Yeah, yeah. No, of course. He came over. Did we talk about where he cut? I was here. I know, but on the podcast. No, no, no. I don't think so. This motherfucker comes over to the crib with. A power saw. On Christmas Day? Christmas night. So in the kitchen sink, there's like the little grate where it's like an inch off the ground. So it's a little rack. So your dishes sit on top of it. They don't get all nasty or whatever. And he's like, this is great, but it's a son of a bitch to clean. It's too big to fit in the dishwasher. So he just cut it into two pieces with a power saw, and then you can put it in the dishwasher. Great idea.

As a clean freak? It's inventive in a way that I didn't fully understand what was going on, but then I look over. You don't understand until you do your first dishwash. And then I look over and Jason's standing outside watching his father-in-law fucking saw something being like, this is sick. Why is he literally tuning in? No, it's funny because you're like, you need any help? And he's like, no, I don't need any help. You have to offer as the man of the house, but if you helped him, it would have made it worse. There's definitely a moment where I put my hand on the thing while he was sawing it just to help holding it down, which probably emasculated him. Yeah, definitely. It didn't help by any means. He definitely lifted one of his shoes off the ground and put a leg up on top of it to hold it. Oh yeah, I forgot he threw a leg over it. He threw a leg over it. I'm like, damn, okay. So yeah, crocheting is out. claiming you've been copied. I mean, this is one of my... I like that one. I love this. Like, everyone on the internet thinks they invented everything, and all people do is like, I can't believe they stole from me. And it's like, bitch, this is Ralph Lauren. Nothing new under the sun, as they say. It makes me insane. Except for my ideas and discoveries that I stumbled upon. Even those original ideas, those moments of inception. Still, it's not original. The game owns it all. You can't claim it. I mean, musicians are the worst because they think that it's all... They invented A minor to C? Yeah, it's like, bro, yeah. Like, Marvin Gaye suing me for what? A chord change, bro? Like, alright, put Robin Thicke in jail. See if I care. American Nightmare's suing me. Yeah, that is a good one. Stop claiming you've been copied. That's a good one. Out. Long nails and nail art. Oh, I mean, I hate long nails and nail art, so I'm happy to hear that. I do like it when somebody really commits to it, as long as that person's not in my life, you know? Yeah, it just feels nasty unless, like, I need a backscratch really bad, but I'm good. Imagine asking a stranger for a backscratch. All right. Chrome logos and also having a logo. I mean... Which is also cool. Yeah. It's cool to not...

to not have like delete your logo isn't that cool no one's deleting it i think it's more like if you start something new we're going logo free the chrome logo though is that's that's very like her world which that's why i think that one's funny i don't see that many chrome logos in my life i see a lot of chrome logo i see and that one ain't going nowhere it's a simple old english script isn't it simple often in the semi-circle classic perhaps in a banner yes Yeah, her world where it goes from the Y2K aesthetic into PC music with a dash into Elven Fairyland where it's chrome, but it's also brownish green. Yeah, I don't understand any of that stuff. It was a great trend while it lasted, but it is time to put it to bed. Hopefully the chrome logo doesn't spin. You know what I mean? Animated. A rotating chrome logo? I've definitely seen that. Oh my god. I would love that. Out mental health. My girl. Fuck it, right? Fuck it. Vaping. Also sick. Going right into verse two from chorus one. That's very sick. How do you feel about that one? As somebody who's more of a traditional stick to the... I just like that, and I just like someone that's... I know it goes against your style of songwriting. It does go against my style of songwriting, but I like the inside baseball. So what would you do? You finish verse two into chorus one. That means that's where the bridge would go? Yeah. So we're just talking about a bridge. I think so, yeah. I'm not an expert, obviously. But the bridge can come after chorus. Yeah, but the problem is... It comes before the last chorus, usually. Yeah, but the problem is that the bridge can sometimes outshine the chorus if it's done right. Rarely. No, no, no. They used to back in the day. Yeah, back in the day. Now it's so strange. Well, these nerds now can't even write it. There's no... It's the same... I don't know. Listen to Sizz album. There's not a chorus or a bridge. I don't know. You know how they show those infographs where they're like, here's all the colors that were used on everything, and then as time goes on, it just turns into black and white and gray? Yeah, yeah, yeah. The same thing with key changes in songs. It's like, in the 70s,

90% of the songs would have a key change on the bridge, and then just slowly, slowly, and now it's like 1% of the song will have a key change. Now it's a Frank Ocean fucking one-note song where he's humming. No, Frank would change a key. I'm talking about like Mod Sun or something, you know? Mod Sun's got more hits than Frank Ocean, I'll tell you that. I'm not happy about that, actually, because he's a swagless loser. Okay, out, fashion. I mean, that's just funny. I'm above it. Because she definitely makes money off of fashion, so that's why that's funny. Lip injections. That's going to be a tough one because every girl has lip injections, right? Yeah, I mean, especially here. I really do think it's crazy here that women are starting to look the same because they all get the same stuff done. Yeah. Whereas I just feel like in New York, people still just look like freaks in a good way. I was having this conversation with Carolyn last week. And she was like, I'm just blind to it. Because I was like, who of your friends have fucking lip injections? I don't know a single one. And she just goes, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. And I would have no idea. What were these thin-lip bitches doing before? They were being white. You know white people ain't got no lips, right? Were they just sitting at home alone all night because their lips are so thin? No, but I think it's just like anything else. From what I've been told, it's like once you start, you can't stop. It's like Pringles. Yeah, I got it. Like you just can't really, oh, I could do it a little. And I think it's like, I also think it's really affordable. For what you're doing, considering you think it's going to improve your life tenfold, and it's like $500 or $1,000, it's a sound investment on your mental health. That's one bottle at the club. Exactly. Last out is referencing. I don't know exactly what she means by that. I think she's saying that she's ready to have pure, original ideas and thoughts with zero reference. I mean, that's impossible, but good luck. As we stated earlier in this. But if anyone can do it, create a unique idea. I mean, because she's sort of in that realm of like a Bjork or something like that, where that truly is no reference. One-of-a-kind situation. Polichek's close to that, but not there. She's a freak. Okay, the ins. Emailing.

I mean, no one stands with this more than me. Love it. But did emailing fall off in 2022? Yeah, dude. Did it really? Yeah, like most people text. Yeah, I guess it is a text thing. You text about business with people that you don't even want to have your phone number. I mean, I don't really care, obviously, and I think certain things need to get done quickly, so text is obviously. Actually, I would say that more business gets done on a DM. No. I do a lot of business on my DM, but once it. When it's DJing, yeah, it probably does. When it's about to actually pop off, then I'll switch it over to email. Here's my email. And they're like, oh, that's your email? Very professional. Yeah, when a tequila company wants you to post an Instagram for money, they definitely bang your DMs versus email. Is there somebody I can talk to over at Jeans Incorporated? All right, column skirts are in. I don't know what that is, Chris. I know what a skirt is. I know what a column is. Put them together and help me out. Did I stump the chump? You don't know what a column is. I'm going to Google it right now. It's not an A-line skirt, I believe. I didn't ask what it's not, Chris. No, no, I'm like talking it out because I'm not sure. Oh, okay. Column skirt is just like a long... Oh, it's kind of like a 90s businesswoman. Yeah, it's from the waist down to the ankle or so, but it's like... Pretty form-fitting. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It's comfortable enough. It might have a slit up the side. Definitely has that. Okay. I mean, column skirts, yeah, bring them back. I'm fine with that. It shows off a great shape of a body with leaving a lot to the imagination. Sure. It can go Quaker if you don't do it right, but. I'm on Chubb just thinking about it. And being mysterious. That's a little generic for Caroline. Yeah, but she's saying that like. She's the type of bitch that's hiding behind a tree and scaring you. Normalizing boo. I think she's talking about the fact that in a different era, celebrities especially, were able to create an aura of mystery. I don't think she's talking about that. Or maybe she is. But I think that you want...

You want that. I mean, to an extent. That's your flavor right there. Well, to an extent. I mean, I just think that, like, seeing, you know, fucking a celebrity at the pumpkin patch with their ugly little kid and their wife is, like, not necessary. We don't need to see Dax Shepard coming out of a hit? I don't need to see Dax Shepard on HGH leaving Runyon with a fucking, with a bodybuilder.com mix bubble. I didn't know he had, like, a 90s hardcore singer. full arm sleeve of like a tree or something. Actors are crazy. How do you get a role? I mean, how do you get booked on a job when you have a full sleeve of like a, they're so used to cover it up. I mean, he probably just wears long sleeves. All right. And wired headphones. We all know that. How do you feel about the trend of people using vintage headphones for like nineties aesthetic? I mean, that to me is just the same as the guy who spends $10,000 on speakers and a fucking Macintosh preamp and a, Well, the difference is the old headphones are going to sound worse. Yeah, but there's not like a rich analog thing that you're getting from the Macintosh premium. This goes back to my entire theory that no one who spends money on audio equipment of any kind, actually, unless they're professional, can actually tell the difference between any of it. Right. Unless it's like blown out garbage versus like extreme. It's like wine. Yeah. Like, this one sounds good. This one sounds good, too. Yeah, you don't know what the fuck you're talking about. If you like the way the Sony Sport headphones look from 1997, by all means, dork. cop up if you're just going to be listening to a cmosk podcast anyway you're listening to an mp3 so it's going to sound kind of mid not me i know i know okay in iding local flora and fauna this is a little bit more me than you yeah i mean okay i'd be walking around pointing out different flora and fauna i'm sure people want to hear that too they'll be like hey them jeans is this is this edible i'm like not this time of year i wouldn't i don't look i'm not I don't want to tell you what to do, but that could cause the harm. I know all the tangerines in my neighborhood. I know which ones you should eat and which ones you shouldn't eat. Not because you'll die, just in terms of flavor. Oh, okay. And taking vitamins? Nah. I think vitamins are out. I get all the vitamins I need from milk. I think everyone just takes vitamins now. I don't know if it's really... Do you? I don't. Yeah, I do.

Nothing crazy, just like a probiotic. Why do you sound so defensive? I try these. Is that a vitamin? I think so. I don't think so. Well, you know what I mean. It's like a daily pill that you take. Vitamins are out. Supplements are in. I've been taking this skin gummy that Juliana Salazar put me on to called Playa, and they taste delicious, and it's got a little bit of retinol in it, and I think it's helping. Dude, your skin looks so on fleek. There must be this. There's playas. They taste good, so in the morning when I haven't had anything and I chew a playa. First thing? First day out? First day out, I've had coffee, but then that bitter taste is sweetened up by the playa. Oh, wow. So it's like a fire and ice. And you probably get addicted to that combo every morning. Well, the best part is you get to take two a day at the same time, so you're getting a nice mouthful. Okay. It's not just a single, you know, it's not like a Haribo. Your pores have been tiny. In the last couple weeks. I mean, I try not to see them, you know? All right. Instrumental solos. I hate solos. You know that. It's time to come back. No. I miss a solo. There's nothing worse than a guitar solo. I mean, I guess when I think about... That's not true, but I guess when I think about guitar solos... Guitar solo is a spectrum. Like 80s and 90s music that I hate, that you like. Like Guns N' Roses. Like, I think that's the absolute worst. but there is like a hair metal yeah like i think of like deaf leopard which is like there might be a genre music that's the worst genre music but there's also like like a modest mouse song where they'll a lot of modest mouse songs will have a yeah or even an elliot smith song will have a little i'm i does ryan adams play a solo every once in a while oh for sure or somebody in the band but i think it's because you're right i think it's because i equate it with like 80s hair metal right because that's when you put your like it's like a formulaic thing where like and now i put my leg up on the fucking monitor i have my jeans on i'm going absolutely crazy for like a minute and a half so i think that's bad when i was a kid i loved guitar that was my favorite part of the song every time because i mean kurt hammock on metallica his solos are so also i don't what's up with metallica being cool again they sell are they cool again kind of

Metallica does not suck. I mean, like that Supreme Skate video where they put one in there. I mean, that was sick. I think I put that on a while ago. No, I just have never liked Metallica. And I also thought they're one of those bands, I guess, has been around long enough where there's like a huge backlash when that movie came out. Yeah. And they're like, these guys suck. Like fucking Lars Ulrich is a dick. He hates Napster. And now it's like, these guys are going on tour and they're taking out turns, not turnstile, but you know, I'm just like, what dude? Like these guys aren't cool. But I guess you grew up with it. Yeah, most people grew up with it. I just never listened to Metallica. Like, never cared. Guns N' Roses and Metallica, I just don't care. There was a time where they both toured together. Sure. Did not get along. I'm not surprised by that. Yeah, I grew up on Metallica. That to me is the dusty... That's like listening to Mobb Deep. It's like just as dusty to me. What about Slayer? No interest. I don't think you actually like Slayer. Not that much. I didn't like him that much. But I also think all these bands... People just liked them for their artwork. Yeah, these three bands that we've talked about, though, are very culturally important. Oh, yeah. Just because I don't want to listen to it doesn't mean they didn't create a shift in music. But I guess if it's an instrumental solo, it doesn't have to be guitar. It could be a Lizzo flute. Okay, do not normalize the flute solo. Okay, and wearing the same clothes all the time. Okay, let's go. You know I live that life. All I do, I just wear a suit every day now. No, you don't. There was a person at the party last night, Roy, who was like, do you only wear suits? Because the only time I've ever seen him is I'm wearing a suit. Yeah, that's funny. Just randomly. You're like, yeah, actually, I do some accounting stuff, so I kind of, like, I don't know. I'm a consultant. Brother, I'm the least suit-wearing motherfucker you're ever going to meet. That's true. That's true, you are. Deep down. All right, matte eyeshadow. I don't know about that one. I'm not ready for that to come out. That's fine. Casual nudity. I guess that's cool. It is cool. I don't know how it's going to happen exactly. I think she could be talking about maybe on stage where it feels more appropriate. It's kind of like, yeah, I never understood the bonding of like everyone hanging out together with no clothes on.

It's a thing that a lot of people enjoy. Well, if you're working on your mental health, maybe you could be part of a community that prioritizes nudity as part of their journey to understand their trauma. Like secular Sabbath? No, that's just rich guys laying down on blankets listening to boring music. That's different. That's all I do without the rich. That's the problem. You at least don't have to drive 45 minutes up a mountain in a cell service. People love to share a bathtub together. You bond over group nudity. I don't know anybody who does this. It's very prevalent. You know, hot tub. You know, we're all at the hot springs and we're all naked. I mean, bro, this sounds like a reality show that you've never watched. No way. Yeah. Nobody does that except Winter House in the hot tub. Like, no, real people don't do that. You don't. Like, let's all go skinny dipping. We all take our clothes off and jump in the pool. Yeah, when you're 19, maybe. No one does that now. Well, that's why we need to be in. Oh, we're bringing it back. I see. Okay, I'm sorry. I'm just going to have one. Just a little dick hanging out every once in a while. Just super cash. Babe, I'm going to be in the backyard kind of sunning my hog. It's casual. Why can't I do it? You're right. And the last one, desire. And when you're at the top, what is there to desire, you know? I mean, that's heavy. Thank you. I, before we go. I don't know. I just need to talk about another show that has kind of blown my third eye open that I wanted to put you on to because it's something that I think the world – I feel like it's underreported right now. And it's called Serving the Hamptons. And it revolves around the staff at a restaurant called 75 Main. And the owner who is like a – Gray lobster tots. His name is – yeah. Alex looked the menu up and she was like, this menu is like –

46 pages like greek salad spring rolls we got it all okay so it's giving cheesecake but there's like a hot guy who looks like he like hangs out at the ald coffee shop and only wears like camp collar shirts buttoned down very far but he's really hot and then there's an assorted styles of chicks in the house you know all the flavors like the super hot blonde with the fake tits that has the long island accent but the the freak The real freak, Lindsay Lohan's adopted cousin. And she's like, people expect me to act like Lindsay. I'm like, bitch, you're an adopted cousin. No one expects you. So she is kind of the linchpin of the show, even though she's not the star. But she keeps talking. She gets in trouble with the boss, but then like. somebody from the low hands will call zach the restaurant owner and get her her job back it's so good so they fuck and get drunk and so she's the jacks i i would say she's not getting twisted and like trying to fight everyone but yeah kind of but it's on this on the interesting part about this is on hbo max oh my god and it's been picked up for season two because i tweeted about it and one of the cast members was like I was like, this show is starring Lindsay Lohan's cousin and all these other bozos. And she's like, I'm one of the other bozos. Thank you for watching. We got renewed. I was like, man, that's cool. Okay. So it's coming back. Let's get this bozo on the pod. It's coming out. I don't know if we need to do all that. So this is just people who work at a restaurant in the Hamptons. 100%. It's a very popular restaurant. Year-round? No, it's a summer share type of. Okay, I was wondering. But Zach, the owner, who's kind of like an overly manicured. like turkish like straight quote-unquote guy um who loves local produce oh yeah uh he he is like bro we have new sum chokes yeah that's literally what he talks like he's rented them a house and the chef looks like the chef is a chick her name is like borgo i can't remember her name her name is insane but she's like a tatted up like like kind of looks like a um

She got the sleeve of radishes and shit? Nah, but she would wait in line to fuck Travis Barker. You know what I mean? She wears... I don't know what the brand is, but it looks like... It's like a flex fit. It's like a black flex fit with some sort of logo on it, and it's a little to the left while she's chefing it up. The hat is tilted a little bit. The hat is tilted a little bit like good Charlotte style. Okay, so she might... When COVID was going on, she was definitely wearing a pink bandana as a mask. A hundred percent. Okay. But the hottie, the hot guy likes her. And I'm like, bro, what the fuck? fuck like this is weird she won't give him the time of day then she brings a guy from home to visit oh okay and it's like a guy who lays bricks like outside of boston he's wearing like a henley and the guy's like the hot guy's like is this guy fucking serious but he's literally he it's just it's great stuff It's great stuff.
