• 1:57
  Speaker 1: my misunderstood mug, but next week we are going to
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: be starting our sip or no, is it? Sorry. We're
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: going to be starting or spit or swallow or swallow.
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: You don't sip.
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: You don't sip it. You just, I don't know. So bad,
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: but yes, we're going to get our drink on.
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: We've had actually a bunch of companies contact us in
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: the last couple of weeks that want to sponsor us.
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: So as of next week, we will be featuring, uh, wine,
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: alcohol that has been sent to us that we are
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: going to taste, we're going to tell you guys about,
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: and we are either going to swallow it if we
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: like it, and if we don't like it, we are
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: going to spit it out. So we are really excited
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: for that segment next week. Do you want to fill
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: us in really quickly on what's been going on in
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: your dating life in the last week? Because you barely
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: can function because you're on so many dates.
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: I'm on so many dates. Honestly, I had, okay, I
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: can't even, I'm going to get to the point soon
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: where I can't talk about it because like I had
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: one guy who listened to the show and he's like,
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: I did listen, but honestly, I don't think I can
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: listen to any more of this because I actually like
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: you and I don't want to hear about it. So
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: it's like being on the bachelorette kind of like, yeah,
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: I've been on a few super high quality dates.
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: Who are you going to give a rose to this week? Oh, actually,
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: that's what we should do. You should start mentioning somebody's name. Okay,
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: who gets the rose this week?
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: Oh, gosh. Speaking of that, I have to tell you,
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: one of the dates I went on, the guy, he
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: made me this paper origami rose and gave it to me.
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: It was like a little symbolic of what we're doing
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: on this show. Oh, that's cute.
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: So sweet. That's a little too... sweet and cute for me,
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: but I think that's really nice.
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: It was super nice. It was a great date. He
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: gets my, he gets my rose this week.
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: Wow.
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: I don't mean it like that.
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: Yes, you do.
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: That's who I'd be giving.
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: That's who I'd be giving the rose. Okay.
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: What's his name? Do we want to say it?
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: Starts with a J. Okay.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: So we'll call him J. So J gets the rose
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: this week. That's very exciting. Um, do you think he's
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: somebody that you can marry next year?
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: Wow. Wow. Jay, Jay, this is very interesting. Maybe next week,
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: if he's still in the running, we'll have to have
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: him call in.
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: Here's the problem. The people I'm dating are really high
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: quality people like this. I I've like upped this game.
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: So like it, it's all, Oh, I could marry probably
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: anybody that I I'm only dating like super high quality humans.
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: And so it's making it really amazing, but tough too.
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: So, um, Okay, well, don't forget anybody. Anyone that wants
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: to get involved could email suggestions. What's the email?
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: Gettingmarriedatmisunderstoodpodcast.com.
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: M-I-S-S, understood, yeah.
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: M-I-S-S. I had a question though. I keep getting called cute.
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: I keep getting called cute by these people I'm dating. Like, oh,
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: you're so cute. And I don't know how I feel
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: about that. Like, what's the difference between cute and hot
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: or like do guys like cute or do they want
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: sexy or like how does a woman like well I'm
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: too cute like am I I.
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: Don't know are your boobs out enough I don't know.
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: Maybe maybe yes I think I'm showing.
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: I think you have good boobs I mean maybe you're
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: not showing enough sex appeal Um, but cute is a
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: good word. It's worse than, you know, Oh, you've got
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: a great personality or something.
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: That's true. Um, yeah, it's better.
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: No, you're a beautiful girl. And I think that you
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: also look very young for your age. So I think
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: that like, you know, maybe that's the word that comes out.
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: And also these guys are on the younger side. I
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: feel like they're not maybe, you know, they don't have
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: a lot of sophistication with their vocabulary and it might
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: be intimidating to say you're such a beautiful woman.
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: Oh, maybe, maybe. Yeah. I want to be, I want
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: to be hot. I want to, but I think it's
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: a lot of my personality. I'm just goofy all the time.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: Well, when you come here, we're going to put you
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: in like leather pants and like, um, I don't know.
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: We're going to sex you up a little bit and
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: see what happens.
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: I need some sexing up and, um, I probably need
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: to stop cracking jokes all the time. I'm like, I'm
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: always joking around and stuff.
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: So yeah, well, yeah, that, oh, well, but there's nothing
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: wrong with that. I think that's nice.
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah. But this brings us to like a
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: lot of the stuff I want to talk about today.
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: So what do you want my dating? Well, we just
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: had an amazing guest on. So we just had Vanessa Reiser,
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: licensed social worker and psychotherapist. She deals with narcissistic abuse
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: and it brought back a lot of memories from past
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: relationships and things like that. And it, I kind of
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: like it kind of delves into some stuff we're going
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: to talk about today but she was an amazing guest
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: and she's coming out next week, and it kind of
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: ties in with our guests this week Sarma Melangalis from
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: Bad Vegan we talked a little bit about that. So,
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: a lot of what we're going to talk about today
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: will be relationship stuff but. Let's talk first, okay, about
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: Sarma's episode. So we had Sarma's episode on this week
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: in a two-parter. It was amazing. The feedback is amazing.
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: What were your thoughts when you were actually interviewing Sarma
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: in person? I know you guys have kept in touch
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: and stuff. So let's talk a little bit about Sarma
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: this week.
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: Well, at this point I consider Sarma a friend. So
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: like I was very, the point with that is it
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: was very happy to get to know her. I was
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: happy to hear her story. I was happy to be,
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: you know, part of, the platform that she could tell
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: her story on, because I think that's really important. You know,
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: a lot of people victim shame and, you know, I
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: don't try and come into any of my interviews having
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: an opinion.
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: And even if I do, they think you're done for
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: the day, but they don't know about the drawer, the drawer.
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: Just the one square before bed or two, you know,
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: nobody's watching. You deserve a treat. With eight flavors to
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: choose from, you can choose the flavor you favor with
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: Cadbury Dairy Milk. I have an opinion. I keep it
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: to myself because I think it's not my place. Like
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: the whole purpose of this show is for people to
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: tell their story without having any judgment or pushback almost.
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: So I loved hearing her story. I found it very
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: interesting because when I saw Bad Vegan come out on Netflix,
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: I binged it. I was obsessed with understanding more of
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: what happened and her. And I did have questions. I
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: did think crazy things. I was like, how could this
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: woman that seems so smart and normal get into this?
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: So I thought it was very interesting. It was interesting
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: to hear her perspective. It was interesting to hear about
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: psychological abuse, which sounds a lot like things that happened
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: in cult relationships. I've been involved in that. I went
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: to a boarding school that was based on a cult.
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: And so I'm very familiar with that. And obviously, I've
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: had relationships with people who.
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: Share traits that she spoke about, that Vanessa spoke about today, narcissistic,
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: abusive people that just, you know, try to gaslight you,
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: shame you, put you in a place where you feel
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: like you need them to thrive and you kind of
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: can't get out of the relationship. And, you know, I've
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: been in stuff like that. So I love that they
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: brought awareness to people that may be suffering in relationships
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: like that, but don't necessarily know it. So I think
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: they're both very interesting women. And the interview we had
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: with Tara Newell about her mother getting involved with Dirty
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: John was also a similar story that a beautiful, smart,
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: accomplished woman could get wrapped up with a liar and
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: someone who takes your soul from you almost and makes
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: you feel so bad about yourself, which is just crazy.
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: That's not how relationships work. are supposed to be. You're
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: supposed to be with somebody that is an asset to you,
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: that makes you feel better about yourself. You know, that's
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: a partner. Like I want a witness to my life.
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: You know, I want someone who's like my teammate, my
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: best friend, and who also I feel physically connected to
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: that I want to be intimate with. You know, that's
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: the most... the only thing you can share with one
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: other person is like this intimate moment, you know? And
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: so if you don't have that chemistry with them, it's
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: also very hard to keep that connection alive is my opinion.
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: I don't know. Yeah, I agree. And Vanessa gave us
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: some really great tips on red flags, how to like
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: invest in ourselves and remind ourselves that we're awesome ahead
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: of time before we even have a chance to get
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: wrapped up with a narcissist, just so that we know
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: our worth, our value, so that, you know, we're always
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: reminded that when we see these red flags to kind
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: of run, we can get, we can totally do better
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: than that. So I'm super excited for her episode to
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: come out next week.
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it'll be great. I really hope everybody listens.
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: One thing, and if people don't know the name Vanessa
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: Reiser right off the bat, You will know her if
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: you follow Real Housewives of New Jersey and that because
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: she's involved in that whole mess a little bit right now.
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: Oh, and let's talk about that because now we're personally
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: involved because we're heading to New York soon to have
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: dinner with Bo Dietl, the PI guy who is involved
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: in this mess with Vanessa. And you can tell the story.
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: Well, no, I just, we had no idea the two
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: were connected. First, we were having Vanessa on the show.
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: And then we were having Bo Dietl on the show
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: and having dinner with him. We didn't know that Louie,
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: Louie and Teresa, Louie is the PI that he supposedly
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: hired is Bo Dietl.
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: Allegedly claims that he was not hired by him at all. And,
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: you know, Louie, I think says that they're like best
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: friends and really close. And that is not what Bo says.
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: So she couldn't really talk about. that whole scenario, but
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: she spent a lot of time talking about what it
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: was like to date him and get out of that
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: relationship and be in that relationship. So I think that
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: it's very cool. This episode is brought to you by BetterHelp.
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: Sometimes in life, we're faced with tough choices and the
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: path forward isn't always clear. I personally have been through
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: a lot of trying times in my life, trauma, grief,
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: for example. I think those are universal themes that people
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: can really understand. I lost my fiance, Andy, in 9-11,
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: and the pain was unbearable. Since then, I've gone through
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: other traumas that didn't feel as big, but I still
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: needed to talk to somebody, and having somebody I didn't
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: know that well but was really good at listening felt
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: like the right thing to do, and it was so
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: helpful to me. I love that I can have someone
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: to talk to that isn't one of my close friends
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: that I can just confide in and feel like it's
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: between us. If you're thinking of starting therapy, give BetterHelp

• 15:34
  Speaker 1: I have to say Florida is even hotter than Las
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: Vegas because of the humidity in Florida. And in Vegas,
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: there is none. So it doesn't feel as hot. You
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: can actually sit in the sun, but the sun is
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: like burning on your skin. Whereas here, it's like hard
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: to breathe outside. But we haven't seen that wildfire stuff. And,
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: you know, it's very apocalyptic. You know what I mean?
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: It's super scary what's going on. And I get really
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: nervous about the state of... America or the world or whatever.
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: It's just, it's really weird. But talking about Vegas for
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: a second, I just want to say, I went on
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: this trip. With a group, it's hard to explain. It's
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: very similar to YPO, which if people know what that is,
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: it's people getting together that own businesses. But this was
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: like on a sort of different level. People that are publicly,
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: you know, CEOs of publicly traded companies, very famous people,
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: Russian oligarchs. You know, a guy who is probably going
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: to win the next presidency in Uruguay was one of
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: the guys there. Very cool people. group of people and
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: we did everything from hiking in Red Rock to having,
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: going to a black tie event where we had, we
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: were kidnapped and brought into this room and we got
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: to play poker all night and baccarat and blackjack and
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: they gave us basically free money and we were playing
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: with like, you know, $ 500, 000. And you were a dealer.
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: is being a casino host or somebody who dealt cards.
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: Because when you're there, by the way, when you're behind
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: that table, it's super hard to get the cards out,
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: to do your math really quick. Um, it's very intimidating. So,
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: but I had a lot of fun.
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: Well, you were, you were a natural, you looked so
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: good up there. So it was like an homage to
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: your Vegas days.
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: Yes. No, it was cool. But also one of the
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: things too, we had two major people come and talk
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: to us about, um, different things that they found to
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: be interesting. Right. So they had, yeah, they had the
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: guys from the social dilemma, the show on Netflix, which
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: by the way, I believe was the number two Most
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: watched show on Netflix ever about what social media does
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: and what it has done and what it's going to
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: do to our youth, but also just to adults, too,
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: because adults get addicted to it. So the two guys
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: that starred in that, that created it, came and spoke
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: to us for probably a total of six hours on
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: the subject. And it was very scary, the direction that
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: they believe the world is going with AI. They think
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: it's very dangerous. They think they're going to Congress to
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: try and get them to slow it down, to pause,
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: because they believe that the curve and the rate that
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: AI is taking over can be very dangerous. But then
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: on the Flip side, they were talking about the use
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: of AI in understanding language with animals, which I found
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: to be a fascinating conversation. Right now, they are already
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: working on it with humpback whales, beluga whales, and chimpanzees.
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: I didn't know any of this. I offered the guy
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: to come on the show. I hope that he takes
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: me up on it. But He believes in the next
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: 12 months we will be able to communicate with whales
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: and chimpanzees. We won't know what we're saying, but they
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: will be able to mimic what we're saying, and it'll
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: be a conversation back and forth. They believe by the
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: year 2030, we will be able to actually know what
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: they are saying and we can communicate with them because
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: we will learn their language. So that puts the thought
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: in their mind of like, could this be dangerous? Could
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: we be setting like a, you know, this riptide sort of,
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: you know, creating a mutiny with animals that we don't
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: realize because this has been something that we haven't been
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: able to crack the code for all these years. But
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: wouldn't it be great to know what your dog or
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: cats or pets are thinking? And I think by the
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: year 2030, we will be into knowing that. But it
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: also sets up the conversation of like animal abuse. And
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: they believe that even plants have feelings and can be
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: heard on a level of crying when you cry. rip
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: off a branch or you rip off a leaf. And, um,
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: you know, I just read this week that lobsters can
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: feel the pain when they're boiled. So, you know, they
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: believe that every living thing from mosquitoes to ants to,
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: you know, I'm looking at a plant right now has
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: the ability to feel, to see, um, Um, and should
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: be loved and cared for much differently than we are
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: at the moment. So that was the whole point of
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: that conversation.
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: And then plants. Yes.
• 20:19
  Speaker 3: Oh, really?
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: Like crying at a.
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: Decibel that we can't hear, but yes, they, they have
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: the tools now with these AI contraptions that they can
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: hear it and, um, and not understand what it's saying,
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: but obviously it's crying cause it's in pain. Um, Also,
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: something about, you know, the nectar, they've studied nectar when
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: bees come closer to a plant and they can tell
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: that when they play the sound of a bee coming
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: closer to these certain plants that they develop, you know,
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: more of a nectar and it's more, you know, juicy
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: or whatever. Wow. And it's based on hearing the sound
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: of the bee coming closer to them.
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: They believe that they can hear. So it's all really
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: interesting stuff.
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: So the second thing that we were in a meeting about,
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: this was at almost midnight on the night before we left,
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: we were kidnapped. We went into this room, but we
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: had this really interesting presentation from somebody who's working in
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: the field of taking, you know, the spacecraft up and,
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: you know, I think there are five different companies right
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: now that are Richard Branson has one, Elon has one,
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: you know, Bezos has one to, to get people to
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: go into space for whether it's two minutes to 10 days,
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: there are these things that people can do and spend
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: money on like they did for the submersible. But this
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: new thing that they are selling now is a trip
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: on a, air balloon that goes into space It is
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: a six-hour tour total, two hours up, two hours while
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: you're in this capsule, floating in space, and then two
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: hours coming down. And it fits eight people, and most
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: people have not heard of this yet because they really
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: were promoting it to this group. It costs $ 150 to
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: have a seat.
• 22:11
  Speaker 3: $ 150?
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: Sorry, $ 150, 000. I'm like, oh, I'm in. I can afford that.
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: Let me do that again. It costs $ 150, 000 to have
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: a seat.
• 22:22
  Speaker 3: Like what you hear? Tune into USL All Access live
• 22:26
  Speaker 3: every Tuesday at 8 p.m. Eastern on Sirius XM FC
• 22:29
  Speaker 3: channel 188 for exclusive interviews and the latest from around
• 22:33
  Speaker 3: the USL. The exclusive satellite radio home of the USL.
• 22:38
  Speaker 3: Sirius XM FC is North America's only 24-7 source for
• 22:42
  Speaker 3: engaging soccer talk and live matches from the USL, Premier
• 22:47
  Speaker 3: League and more. All on Sirius XM FC channel 188
• 22:51
  Speaker 3: And the SiriusXM app.
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: Have a seat. And people are booking entire capsules because
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: they want to have a wedding up there or they
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: want to have business meetings up there or, you know,
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: things like that. So they had offered our group trip
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: number 34. They've already booked something into the thousands of trips,
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: but they held group, you know, trip 34 for this
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: group that they were, you know, giving the presentation to.
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: So to see how many people wanted to book that.
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: So it was very interesting and enlightening and it was
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: great to hear the question. So it sounded like they
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: were the group I was with was going to probably
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: book eight seats. And, and I thought that was a
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: really cool thing. I've never heard of it. Um, so very.
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: Cool, but I'm like, okay, this sounds like the Titan
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: submersible all over again, but reverse, would you go up
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: in space in this hot air balloon thing? Would you go?
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: Well, it was interesting because they did ask a lot
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: of questions, obviously about safety. There was, you know, seven
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: different ways for things to fix itself. You know, I
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: was more interested about like, you know, if the balloon
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: where they go to the bathroom, No, there is a
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: bathroom in there. Of course, I'm always interested in that.
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: But they, it was interesting to hear how they had
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: all these different ways to handle the issue if something happened. But,
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: you know, if there's a fire in the cabin and
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: you're two hours from getting down, you can't fix that,
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: you know.
• 24:19
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: I don't know. They seem to have all these answers
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: for everything. So it'll be interesting when it does launch
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: to see what happens there. I think that'll be cool
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: because it's, because it's something that seems more realistic for people.
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: It's 150,000 instead of 250 or, you know, some of
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: the people I was with had are on the waiting list.
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: They've spent 30,000, excuse me, 30 million to 50 million
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: to be part of these other trips where you go
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: to space for 10 days. So it's a lot cheaper.
• 24:50
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: That's a lot cheaper. It's like a good, it's like
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: a quick little, just dip your toes into space for
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: a good price.
• 24:58
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: What, but would you go, would you go?
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: No, I'm too scared of stuff like that.
• 25:02
  Speaker 3: No.
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Me too.
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: I also don't like heights. I don't have any desire
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: to see what that's like. So I'm not into it
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: at all.
• 25:08
  Speaker 3: Nope.
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: Me neither. Speaking of that though, like the Titan submersible
• 25:12
  Speaker 2: last weekend or last week, we were talking about it.
• 25:14
  Speaker 2: There was still hope when we were talking, we know now.
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: they're gone a lot of stuff on the internet about
• 25:21
  Speaker 2: that people are like oh good you know they were
• 25:24
  Speaker 2: so dumb they should never have done this to begin
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: with I like actually got in some fights on the
• 25:29
  Speaker 2: internet with people I was like shame on you like
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: if my kid is someday a billionaire and you're like
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: I mean just you can never rejoice in someone's tragic
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: death there was a father and a son on there
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: it made me so mad I feel so sad they
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: just had so much passion about exploring the world like
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: good for them they could afford it too so I'm
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: very sad that.
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: That yeah I don't think the money I think it's
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: really ignorant for people to talk about how much money
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: somebody had I mean listen it was it was a
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: opportunity you know that they could afford and they did
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: it and that has nothing to do with whether or
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: not they should die I mean that's crazy what I
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: thought was a little bit uh I don't know I
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: found it very nerve-wracking I guess is that they started
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: to bring up the remain the debris And they said,
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: you know, I only saw this yesterday while I was traveling,
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: but they said something about how they were able to
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: find some bodies in the submersible. I didn't know that. Yeah, so,
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: you know, I assumed that it imploded and the whole
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: thing smushed and, like, it was instantaneous. But, you know,
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: if it wasn't smushed and, you know, the window just
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: popped out and they drowned to death or, you know,
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: I'm very curious of what ends up coming next. them
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: finding the news to really be. And I'm sure they
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: are going to be able to figure out what happened
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: in their last seconds by, you know, it's like when
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: they have an airplane crash and they get all the
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: different parts and they're able to figure out what happened.
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: I think it'll be very similar and it's super scary.
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: But the group that I was with, I talked to
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: a lot of them about whether or not they would
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: have gone in the submersible and they all said yes.
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: And it had nothing to do with money. It was
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: more like they, they, felt convinced that it was safe.
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: The owner, you know, the CEO and founder was going
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: down as well. You know, it just, they would, they
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: would have thought it was safe.
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree.
• 27:19
  Speaker 3: Yep.
• 27:20
  Speaker 2: And the money is just like, it's a vessel, you know,
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: it affords you the opportunity to do things nobody else
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: can do. And everybody can say, oh, you know, they're billionaires, blah, blah, blah, whatever.
• 27:32
  Speaker 2: Like they've done really well. They deserve to do all
• 27:35
  Speaker 2: these amazing things, whatever. It's good. But you know, Very tragic.
• 27:39
  Speaker 2: But on another note, 4th of July is coming up.
• 27:43
  Speaker 2: So do you have any big plans?
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: I don't really give a shit about 4th of July.
• 27:48
  Speaker 2: I mean, I wondered, yeah, some people are like diehard fireworks, picnics, barbecue,
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: all that. I wondered how you felt.
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: I have a really beautiful backyard with a really nice
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: barbecue or grill that I've never used. So I will
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: probably break that out in terms of, getting a bunch
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: of food and inviting guests that I know can cook
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: on it because I will use them for their skills
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: because I don't know how to do that. I'd like
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: to try it out. I've just moved to Florida. I
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: have a beautiful house and I should start throwing parties.
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: I'm going to have one on the 4th. Also, in
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: my neighborhood, a bunch of people are having parties on
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: the third the second you know all the way you
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: know for a couple days before and um i live
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: in a really interesting community where i saw for new
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: year's eve my next door neighbors were lighting um fireworks
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: so i believe they'll be lighting their own fireworks for
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: this weekend as well so my daughter is um she's
• 28:48

  Speaker 1: to have 4th of July with me. So that'll be fun.
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: I hope my dogs are okay during the fireworks, but.
• 28:59
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah. Have they ever like living, they're city dogs.
• 29:02
  Speaker 2: Have they ever had like, they've had noise and stuff,
• 29:05
  Speaker 2: but have they experienced fireworks?
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: My little one, I think has the, the new rescue
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: that I have. I don't know. I've never had her
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: around a loud sounds like that. So I'll be curious
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: to see how she does with that.
• 29:18
  Speaker 2: So are you like more of a hot dog person,
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: hamburger person or neither like a steak or a nice
• 29:24

  Speaker 1: eat it and your mouth's all open. And then I get,
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: and then the, the bread I like are the extra
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: large English muffins. To me, that's like the perfect hamburger. Interesting.
• 30:28
  Speaker 2: This is, did you just make this up on your own?
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: No, I bet that's how I've been eating hamburgers since
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: for like 25 years. I'm not kidding. I love my
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: hamburgers like that. Yeah. And then hot dogs I think
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: are great, but my favorite hot dogs are street hot
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: dogs in Manhattan, which people are like, Oh, those are rats. Um,
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: in the shape of hot dogs. They're so good. I
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: love them. I could eat them for every meal.
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: I love hot dogs. Um, I like, um, kosher hot dogs,
• 30:57
  Speaker 2: you know, like they're beefy and they're just, they're just
• 31:00
  Speaker 2: higher quality. Um, but I like them well done, like
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: almost burnt on the grill.
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: Oh, I don't like anything burnt. I don't like Cajun burnt.
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: I like a nice boiled hot dog. Uh, got it.
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: Hey, I'll break out the grill when I come. I'm
• 31:14
  Speaker 2: a really good cook and I will cook for you.
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: Oh, that'll be fun. Okay, cool.
• 31:19
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: Looking forward. Okay.
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: So, um, not feeling super patriotic this year. I'm, I'm guessing. Um,
• 31:24
  Speaker 2: So do they have okay in Iowa, it's super redneck.
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: We have these trucks these these fireworks trucks these big
• 31:33
  Speaker 2: old trucks you can go up and people just like
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: buy thousands of dollars worth of fireworks it's like a,
• 31:38
  Speaker 2: and it's a weird thing so yeah I know a
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: lot of people and they do like a big fireworks
• 31:43
  Speaker 2: display in their backyard it's kind of.
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: It sounds dangerous to me, but it is.
• 31:48
  Speaker 2: I know someone's going to blow off a hand. But OK,
• 31:52
  Speaker 2: let's talk a little bit about current events. One thing
• 31:54
  Speaker 2: I wanted to get to was Pete Davidson. So we
• 31:59
  Speaker 2: hear a lot about him in the news. And this
• 32:01
  Speaker 2: is very applicable to what we've talked about this week
• 32:04
  Speaker 2: and then what we just talked about with Vanessa on
• 32:06
  Speaker 2: the show. Pete Davidson just checked himself into rehab. didn't
• 32:11
  Speaker 2: really talk a lot about drugs or alcohol, but talked
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: about his battles with borderline personality disorder. And I have
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: a little bit of experience with that. I actually dated
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: someone once with borderline personality disorder, and it was like
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: a living hell. It was terrible.
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: What are the symptoms of that?
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: So someone who talks about this a lot is Dr.
• 32:37
  Speaker 2: Nadine Macaluso, who, who dated the real life or was
• 32:40
  Speaker 2: married to the real life Wolf of Wall Street.
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: She's become somewhat friendly with me.
• 32:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: And we're trying to get her on the show.
• 32:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 32:47
  Speaker 2: I follow her Instagram like crazy because she talks about
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: it so much.
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: Oh gosh.
• 32:51
  Speaker 2: So like, you know, we'll love bombing, love bombing. Um, but,
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: but also, well, total narcissism. There's a lot of parallels
• 32:59
  Speaker 2: with that. Um, just a lot of gaslighting and blame
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: and like, you'll do everything right. But then they'll come
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: back to you and say how bad it makes them
• 33:09
  Speaker 2: feel that like you are like good at this and that.
• 33:14
  Speaker 2: And like, you're probably just trying to make them feel
• 33:17
  Speaker 2: bad about themselves and stuff. That's what it was like
• 33:19
  Speaker 2: with my relationship. It was always like, I would do
• 33:23
  Speaker 2: everything I would do. That was great. They'd find a
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: way to turn it around and use it against me
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: and stuff like that. So I can only imagine. Pete
• 33:29
  Speaker 2: Davidson has this reputation. He's dated all the most beautiful
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: women in Hollywood, all these actresses, musicians. He's made the
• 33:38
  Speaker 2: rounds with the ladies, but the relationship, they seem very short-lived.
• 33:45
  Speaker 2: I bet he's a really fun person to date until
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: you get really into it. It's probably not all that
• 33:52
  Speaker 2: great so I wonder exactly.
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: He strikes me as being somebody who has a lot
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: of um addiction issues depression issues and when he gets
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: upset it probably affects everyone around him yeah um.
• 34:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah but he that's how it is yeah you.
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: Know I've never understood the whole thing with Pete Davidson
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: he looks a little messy to me he doesn't look
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: sophisticated he lives in oh you do get it he
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: lives like in the basement at his mom's house I
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: just I find all that very immature I like a
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: man in a suit who's like, you know, very like
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: rolling around, like, you know, like he runs everything and
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: intimidates people when he walks in the room and is
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: very smart. And I'm sure Pete is very smart and
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: funny and like, you know, sensitive and sweet. And, but
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: he also is way too skinny for me. And the
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: tattoos I know you love, I don't necessarily mind them
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: as much. I just think he's so scrawny and he needs.
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: He is. He is not like the traditional good looking guy,
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: but it's that sense of humor and that little bit
• 34:52
  Speaker 2: of like the bad boy side of him that that's
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: what always gets me. That's what always gets me.
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: He seems kind of like a dick though, as a
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: bad boy. He probably is. Yeah, there are bad boys
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: that are like bad and cool because they're bad boys.
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: Like James Bond or someone like that. To me, he's
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: just like a little bit of a.
• 35:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah. So I can imagine, I kind of, I
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: bet I would, I bet I can imagine what it
• 35:17
  Speaker 2: would be like to date Pete. But yeah, he's in
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: rehab now.
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: Well, we wish him the best, obviously. We do, definitely, definitely.
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: I'm not trying to like, mental health is... Yeah, he's
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: had a hard time growing up. He's made a name
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: for himself to spite that. So we wish him the best.
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: Madonna is in the hospital as well, which is sort
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: of not surprising, but I hope that she's okay. What
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: were they saying the reason for that was?
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: She collapsed. She was unresponsive. They found her, and apparently
• 35:51
  Speaker 2: it's a very severe bacterial infection of some sort. They're
• 35:54
  Speaker 2: being kind of vague about it, but she was in ICU.
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: She was actually intubated, which as we've found during COVID times,
• 36:03
  Speaker 2: when you're intubated, that's really, really serious. And there's a
• 36:07
  Speaker 2: good chance you might not make it out of that,
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: but she did make it out. She's, you know, they
• 36:12
  Speaker 2: say she's out of ICU, she's recovering and she expects
• 36:15
  Speaker 2: to make a full recovery, but Madonna, she has been
• 36:18
  Speaker 2: someone she's been kind of, okay. I don't want to
• 36:22
  Speaker 2: be mean or anything. Cause I love Madonna. I've always
• 36:24
  Speaker 2: been a huge Madonna fan. She's been kind of weird
• 36:27
  Speaker 2: the last few years, her look, her just like live
• 36:30
  Speaker 2: interviews she's done. I'm like, She's so, she's very, she's
• 36:34
  Speaker 2: been a little strange, I feel like.
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's really, it's odd. Like, I don't follow her anymore.
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: I used to be obsessed with her. Listen, I am,
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: I'm 48. I'm a girl of sort of the 80s,
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: where when I was 12, 13, 14, the biggest musicians
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: at the time are still, they still have iconic music.
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: So it was Michael Jackson, Madonna, Whitney Houston, George Michael.
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: I feel like those were like the big, really big stars.
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: I feel like I might be forgetting somebody, but at
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: the time that was like the end all be all
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: of music. And all of those people's music carries through.
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: But Madonna now puts out music or for a long
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: time has put out music that's like way over the top,
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: like really risque and raw or whatever she calls it.
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: And so I just have never liked her music. And
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: then I think her choice, her lifestyle choice is a
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: little different.
• 37:30
  Speaker 3: Odd.
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: I mean, doesn't she date guys that are like 21
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: or something?
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: She does that. But like, I thought she was a
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: lesbian now too. I thought something like that. I swear
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: I heard that she's like into women now. Maybe she
• 37:42
  Speaker 2: always was. I mean, she's always been in broadness and everything.
• 37:45
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: She was always like a very sexual, but anyways.
• 37:49
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: So we wish her the best as well.
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah. And now like the other thing that's like big
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: this week that I'm super excited about, this is kind
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: of a friend of yours. You know, this guy, Ryan Seacrest,
• 37:59
  Speaker 2: he's got like 20 jobs, but he's taking on one more.
• 38:03
  Speaker 2: He's going to be the new host of Wheel of Fortune.
• 38:06
  Speaker 2: So that's super exciting. Yeah.
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: I mean, this guy just does not stop with his jobs.
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: I do know Ryan very well. And he's a great guy.
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: He Listen, when I first met him, I remember thinking
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: this is like the modern day Larry King. Like he
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: asks all the right questions. He's super smart. He's really personable. He,
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: you know, everyone wants to be around him. He really
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: is a great guy and he has a great family.
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: I really like him and I do wish him the best.
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: I wish they gave the job to Vanna White. That
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: would have been a cool.
• 38:37
  Speaker 2: Everybody's saying that.
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: Oh, are they saying that? Because I think that would
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: have been really cool for her. And he has enough money.
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: I mean, come on. but, and he has enough gigs.
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: Or like- They're saying that too.
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: It's either him or Mario Lopez, I feel like are
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: the two that go back and forth.
• 38:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, there were some other contenders too. So Whoopi
• 38:54
  Speaker 2: Goldberg was vying for this role. So was Stephen A.
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: Smith. She has too much of an attitude.
• 38:59
  Speaker 3: I know.
• 39:00
  Speaker 2: I don't think she would have been good, but so
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: like Stephen Smith, Andy Cohen.
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: Who's Stephen Smith?
• 39:06
  Speaker 2: I don't know. Is it the singer? Yeah.
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: That's the only Stephen Smith. I mean, no, that's Sam Smith.
• 39:14
  Speaker 2: Sam Smith.
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: We don't know who Stephen Smith is, so he sucks. Sorry, Stephen.
• 39:18
  Speaker 2: I don't know who you are. But anyway, he was
• 39:21
  Speaker 2: a contender.
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: But yeah, Andy Cohen might have been interesting.
• 39:24
  Speaker 2: He would have been interesting. I think he he's a
• 39:26
  Speaker 2: little too little too like not risque, but he's involved
• 39:32
  Speaker 2: in some some stuff like on, you know, watch what
• 39:35
  Speaker 2: happens live.
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: And I think Anderson Cooper could have been fun.
• 39:38
  Speaker 2: Could have been fun. I love that they chose Ryan Seacrest.
• 39:43
  Speaker 2: And he's, yeah, a lot of people are like, I
• 39:45
  Speaker 2: wish you, you know, you should give someone else a chance.
• 39:47
  Speaker 2: You have all the jobs or whatever, but oh my God,
• 39:50
  Speaker 2: he's amazing. He's so successful. He's just such a sweetheart,
• 39:53
  Speaker 2: I think. And just, I think he's going to make
• 39:56
  Speaker 2: a great replacement for Pat Sajak, but Vanna White, who
• 39:59
  Speaker 2: knows though, maybe Vanna White didn't even want the job.
• 40:02
  Speaker 2: You know, I don't know.
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: Exactly. Hopefully she'll still be the one turning the letters
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: and She won't quit her job. Yeah. So I think
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: she needs to stick with the show. Otherwise it'll just
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: be like too overdone kind of.
• 40:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 40:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 40:17
  Speaker 2: It's weird that it's going to be changing hands, but
• 40:19
  Speaker 2: I think Ryan's going to be great. Comes with a
• 40:21
  Speaker 2: $ 28 million paycheck too, which doesn't hurt.
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: So yeah.
• 40:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah. He's going to be the highest paid talent on TV.
• 40:29
  Speaker 2: I know. Did you date him?
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: Well, I'm not going to get into it.
• 40:32
  Speaker 2: Not get into that. All right.
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: So next week we talked about this a little bit.
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: We have Vanessa Reiser coming up, which will be, you know,
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: it's Louie's ex-fiance who talks about narcissistic abuse, who you
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: guys will all like.
• 40:46
  Speaker 3: And then.
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: We are going to do round two with David Yontef.
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: We had a really fun, interesting interview with him to
• 40:55
  Speaker 1: talk about more stuff in reality TV that was misunderstood
• 40:59
  Speaker 1: or that has to be reconsidered again because he's always
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: a fun interview. And then in the weeks coming up,
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: we have some really, really good guests that took us
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: a long time to get that we are really happy
• 41:12
  Speaker 1: to bring to you. So we'll go back to our
• 41:13
  Speaker 1: more serious guests programming after David's, you know, kind of
• 41:19
  Speaker 1: roundup of, of, uh, reality stuff, which I don't really
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: love talking about, but anyways, he he's, he's a great
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: guest and a good friend of mine. So I love
