  Speaker 3: I mean, listen, I do think like a real friend
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: will be like, you have smoothie in your teeth, which
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: is exactly.
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: What's going on there.
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you have to tell people. I don't even think
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: it's about being a friend. It's just about seeing it's respect.
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: It's like it's more embarrassing for the person in the moment.
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: But then I mean, I want.
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: Someone to tell me when I have a fucking food
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: in my tooth, or a teeth or a tooth.
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: I was actually talking to Yamanika's folks yesterday.
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: She's got Comedica's moving in, you guys.
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: I led her sleep with me one night on the
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: road because she fucked up and double booked herself into
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: two hotel rooms in the wrong city. So we were like,
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: say we were in Chicago, she booked them in Minneapolis,
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: two hotel rooms, so she lost all that money, and
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: so I let her sleep with me one night.
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: Then the next night she's like, that was fun. I
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: was like, it was fun because it was one night.
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: It's not fun for you to be fucking sleeping in
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: my bedroom with me two nights in a row. So
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: then now she's sleeping here for Netflix as a joke festival.
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: We'll both be performing you guys May six. Tickets available
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: at Chelsea dot com, Chelseahandler dot jam, Chelseahandler dot jam.
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: And she'll be staying here. And then I fear she'll
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: never stay anywhere.
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: I don't think she's gonna leave.
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I just got a text from her.
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: We're doing shows this weekend and she said, oh, I
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: fucked up with my hotel room in Mesa, Arizona.
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: I mean that's on purpose.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: At this point, she wants to be with me, and
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: we've discovered that she'll take sex from a man or
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: a woman.
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: So she's fluid, she's not. She doesn't care. She just
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: wants action.
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: And I think she gets so much affection from me
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: that she's confusing that with some sort of like sex.
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: You don't have Doug there, so you just have to like.
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well that's racist.
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: Oh I have an update for her collar and this
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: is a little bit of a disappointing one.
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: They took my advice and all ship. She chickened out.
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: So Stephanie, who had called it on our Josh Radner episode,
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: the one who wanted to make out with her boss.
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: I just have to tell you now, the thing that
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: was on the left side of your tooth is on
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: the right side of your You.
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: Have a toothbrush. I got it, and I want to just.
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: Be on the record. It's more uncomfortable for the telee.
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: It is.
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: It is for the teller, for the teller than the
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: teley because then you have to bring it up.
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: Twice, especially when it moves, and it can.
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: Sound like you're kind of like you know, like, uh,
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: what's the word You're like yeah, yeah, or like you're
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: trying to make someone feel feel bad.
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: And I'm good as Chelsea likes you, bra.
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: Do you think that's the first time I've been called
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: a bitch? Yeah? You're fine. Now there you go. You
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: did it teams.
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: Okay, so Stephanie says, Hi, Chelsea, well I probably still
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: have a crush on my boss. Nothing ever happened after
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: I talked to y'all. He left on a work trip
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: for a couple of weeks and returned only to leave
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: for more travel about every four to five days. This
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: allowed me to reflect, as it was all quite literally
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: making me go crazy. I think she was just maybe
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: very horny at the moment. He had stopped drinking, and
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: this actually changed our dynamic a ton, not as much
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: flirting or texting. We stopped going to dinners or events.
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: He did randomly invite me to go watch his favorite movie.
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: Then the next day he told me he met someone.
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: I'm not hurt by it. This is his third girlfriend
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: in nine months. He texted me last night at twelve
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: thirty eight am saying he liked my new hairstyle. Wtah,
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: I know he's like dragging her along annoying. Yeah, anyway,
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: he loves very hard and honestly, I'm not interested in
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: love bombing. Too independent for that. So there's a little
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: relief it's not me. Also, I still love my job
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: and I don't want to leave it to even explore
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: this option. I'd for sure still like to make out
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: with him at least once. I mean, why not, But
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: for now it's boundaries and being a supportive friend slash coworker.
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: Stephanie Great's noting that's probably best.
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: She probably saved herself.
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah, like drama and whatever other words go with drama.
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah for sure.
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Also, when somebody texts you at twelve
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: thirty in the morning, we all know what that means.
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: We all know what that means. That means you up. Yeah, Okay,
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: it's time for some couples counseling with Chelsea. So this
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: is my.
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: Having a lot of heat by the way, for my couples.
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: Oh good dating instagrams.
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah, a lot of heat between gay guys and gay girls,
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: gay girls and gay girls or guy gay girls, and
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: a lot.
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: Of heat between gay guys.
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: But were still having problems personally before I put the
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: men up, because I didn't really want to put women
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: up and just have men like the just men are
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: not to be trusted. So but I did do some
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: finagling on the side before I started broadcasting people, and
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: there's like two people that are on straight couple that
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: are on their like third and one is on their
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: fourth date.
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: Well do you know if you you probably do know this,
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: if you introduced three couples who get married, it's like
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: a mitzvah or you're a mensch something very good.
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: Well, that's all right, that's already.
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: I don't I need that. And I thought you were
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: gonna say I'm become a.
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: Fairy or something straight to heaven.
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: Oh well, I wish I believed in that.
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: Well, Miles and Natalie. This is Natalie writing in. She says,
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: Dear Chelsea, my boyfriend and I recently moved in together
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: and blended our families. We've been together almost three years
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: and have had no major issues until now. Recently, my
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: dad lost his partner and his mom lost hers this
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: past summer. We invited both of them to join us
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: as past Thanksgiving, so they weren't alone. A few weeks ago,
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: my boyfriend's mom reached out to me for my dad's number.
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: All I thought was how nice a friendship is blossomed.
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: I'm getting texts from my dad with pictures of them
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: gallivanting around little small towns in the Midwest and teaking,
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: meeting for coffee, drinking wine, and going to museums, all
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: things you would expect old people dates to look like.
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: My boyfriend doesn't like this whatsoever. It's nothing personal toward
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: my dad, but he thinks it's selfish of them to
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: do this to us. My sister and I, however, find
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: it awkward and weird, but think it's actually kind of funny.
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: We're very close with our dad since we lost our
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: mom unexpectedly five years ago. We have the type of
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: a relationship where my sister and I call him a
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: hoe bag and tease him about all of this. It
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: is weird, but we're supportive. My boyfriend and his mom
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: are not quite as close. They haven't communicated much about
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: this at all, since she knows he's not supportive. Here's
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: the thing. I normally tell my boyfriend everything I want
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: to be able to come home and laugh that his
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: mom spent the night at my dad's, that they went
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: to a museum today, etc. He gets pretty weird about it.
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: I totally understand his viewpoint, but you only live once
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: and it really doesn't affect our life, is what I
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: say help Miles and Natalie.
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: Hi, Miles and Natalie? Oh, Hi, Hi? How's it going good?
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: How are you two doing good? So your parents are
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: are hooking up? Yeah? Yes, and Miles, you don't like that.
• 9:14
  Speaker 4: I'm not a fan, No, not at all.
• 9:16
  Speaker 5: And I'm a little bit more on the supportive side.
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: Well, Luckily, it's really not either one of your business,
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like, it's really not up
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: to you guys what your parents are going to get
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: up to. And while I understand your discomfort, Miles, I
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: can relate. I just think that, like, let they've got
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: to do their thing and they're happy, and you know, like,
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: what are you going to do about it?
• 9:41
  Speaker 3: I think it's so cute.
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: It is cute, but I understand the reluctance in wanting
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: to know the details. And Natalie, you don't have to
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: tell Miles everything you know about their relationship, like it's not.
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: If he's interested, he'll let you know.
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: And other than that, you've got to just kind of
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: like have a great, nice, loving attitude towards them for
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: doing their thing. It's not like they're having sex in
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: front of you and you have to sit there and
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: watch it, like it's not that's not happening, so be
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: grateful for small blessings.
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, So is it.
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: Just the ick factor or is there anything else?
• 10:17
  Speaker 4: No, No, it's not even that. I think it's how it happened,
• 10:22
  Speaker 4: not that it happened, if that makes sense, Because they
• 10:26
  Speaker 4: both recently lost somebody, very very within a couple of
• 10:31
  Speaker 4: weeks of each other. He lost his significant other, my
• 10:34
  Speaker 4: mom lost her significant other, and so they it's kind
• 10:40
  Speaker 4: of like trauma bonding which has then evolved into something else.
• 10:44
  Speaker 4: And also she was not honest about it, where he
• 10:48
  Speaker 4: was telling Natalie everything that was going on, and my
• 10:51
  Speaker 4: mom was not telling me anything that was going on
• 10:54
  Speaker 4: and not being honest about it even when I asked
• 10:56
  Speaker 4: her about it. So I think that's where.
• 10:59
  Speaker 5: But then he also came across like that he wasn't
• 11:03
  Speaker 5: as supportive, So then I was like, well, why is
• 11:05
  Speaker 5: she gonna want to tell you anything?
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: I mean, first of all, Miles, you're like kind of
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: like setting her up for failure, because she obviously consents,
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: as your mother and as a woman, we all have intuition.
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: She consents that you're there's a level of disapproval coming
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: from you, whether or not you're exhibiting that or not.
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: Like a mother will know.
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: How her son feels about something, especially her personal life,
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: and especially like this this kind of sensitive issue. But
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: something that's really important to remember is like, listen, we
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: want people to be happy, period, don't we We want
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: the people in our lives to be happy. Don't make
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: excuses for why you should be unhappy for them or
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: you should be unsupportive of them. Be happy that they
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: found each other. Who cares if it was two weeks,
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: at least they have each other to like console and
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: confide in and spend time together. And isn't that what
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: you would want for any single person in your life
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: that you cared about?
• 11:59
  Speaker 4: Yes, I would agree with that.
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: Do you think they should like address this with mom
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: and dad or that he should with mom? Just be like,
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: I'm happy for you.
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: Or it's already been addressed, okay.
• 12:10
  Speaker 5: And one awkward thing that I got in the middle
• 12:13
  Speaker 5: of is they both called me and had me on
• 12:16
  Speaker 5: speaker because my dad wanted to go to his kids
• 12:21
  Speaker 5: sporting event that his mom was going to and I'm like,
• 12:24
  Speaker 5: why would you be going to that? Like I'm not
• 12:28
  Speaker 5: even going to be there, And so we.
• 12:31
  Speaker 4: Haven't told the kids not thers, and.
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: So they didn't.
• 12:37
  Speaker 5: That's socially awkward, and you know why Miles is having
• 12:42
  Speaker 5: an issue with it. And then I was just like, you.
• 12:45
  Speaker 4: Know, so my kids were pretty attached to their grandpa
• 12:49
  Speaker 4: that just passed, so introducing this so quickly. So that's
• 12:52
  Speaker 4: another aspect of this is that I don't It's not
• 12:55
  Speaker 4: that I don't want her to be happy, but my kids,
• 12:59
  Speaker 4: he pass from a long, hard disease and so it
• 13:02
  Speaker 4: was long deterioration of watching this and then all of
• 13:06
  Speaker 4: a sudden they're at his funeral and then all of
• 13:08
  Speaker 4: a sudden this is going on. So we have not
• 13:11
  Speaker 4: broken this to the kids yet.
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: Okay, how old are your kids?
• 13:15
  Speaker 4: Minor ten and twelve, minor seven and nine?
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: Okay, wow, good for you guys. That's nice. Yeah yeah
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: half the time, so thank you. Fit Yeah, well even better,
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: that's reasonable. That's totally reasonable not to want to introduce
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: this relationship to your children.
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: That's a separate issue.
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: So like, while you work on your acceptance, you guys
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: can both have like a conversation with them, and I
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: would do it together just to make sure they know
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: you're a united front, so they're not playing you off
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: of each other like children would do, because you know
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: what I mean, like, let them know you guys both
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: are supportive and Miles, you can use this as an
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: opportunity to be like, yeah, we're supportive. We want you
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: both to be happy. It's the timing is a little quick. Well,
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: while we're going we are in full acceptance mode and
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: working on our acceptance, we do have to take some
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: time to be sensitive to the children and what they
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: are learning. And you guys, coming out as a couple
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: so soon after doesn't feel right.
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: So let's give it some time.
• 14:15

  Speaker 1: family and your children, that's it. You can't direct them
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: in any other way. Even if this blows up and
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: ends up being a real like dramatic something like breakup
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: or whatever, like all you can do is throw love.

  Speaker 1: So yeah, just make sure that they know that they
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: have to leave their clothes on at all times, especially
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: around family members.
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: Or maybe just like not kiss in front of you
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: two for no.
• 15:23
  Speaker 4: Well if they get married, then we'll be step me
• 15:26

  Speaker 4: doing that kind of role playing nothing.
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: No, I mean listen, take it for what it is.
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: It's pretty fucking entertainments, but you know what I mean. Yeah,
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: so look at it like that through the lens of
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: comedy and entertainment. Everyone could probably on both sides could
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: use a laugh right now.
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: So let that be it. It's pret hilarious, which is yeah.

• 16:06
  Speaker 3: That's maybe one of my favorite questions we've gotten in
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: a while.
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: I just love those when older when people die, like
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: the old people just like cling on, not cling on
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: or they fast. Everything is quick because they have been
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: through life and they're like, fuck this waiting round. It's
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: like the opposite of girls not knowing whether to call
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: a guy or approach a guy. It's like they know
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: there's no time to lose and that they got to
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: get down to.
• 16:31
  Speaker 3: Businessespecially if they just lost somebody. They're like, let's make
• 16:34
  Speaker 3: it happen. I like you, you and me, right.
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: Right, that guy's dead. He took him a long time
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: to go. There was no sex probably, you know.
• 16:41
  Speaker 3: Right right right, Okay, Well, speaking of sex, we have
• 16:45
  Speaker 3: our you want me to have sex. Don't make me blush, Chelsea.

• 16:52
  Speaker 2: That's indefinite. No, no, no, no, no, you're.
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: I mean it's that's why I can't have a real
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: job because I would be fucking evicted.
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: From it, victim. Notice my use of conviction.
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: That's what they do at jobs when you can't be
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: there anymore. So this question is our Wondering Question of
• 17:08
  Speaker 3: the Day and the title is Closet power bottom needs
• 17:11
  Speaker 3: your help.
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: Dear Chelsea, I believe I'm a power bottom.
• 17:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: I like to be on bottom. I sometimes being on
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: top is too much work.
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: I agree, like you're gonna to fuck me.

• 17:28
  Speaker 3: Have you seen this thing online that's like men planking
• 17:30
  Speaker 3: till failure and it can they last? I think it's
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: less about that than just like hearing them struggle and
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: being in a playing position.
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: Now I feel like, yeah, I'm yeah, I want to
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: get on top of you. I'll let you know. Yeah,
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: I'll tap you out.
• 17:45
  Speaker 3: So Charlie says, Dear Chelsea. I'm a twenty seven year
• 17:48
  Speaker 3: old gay man living in Los Angeles with a little
• 17:50
  Speaker 3: bit of an odd situation that I need you to
• 17:52
  Speaker 3: weigh in on. I developed a large skin tag on
• 17:56
  Speaker 3: my butthole when I was around twenty one. As you
• 17:58
  Speaker 3: can imagine, this would interfere with my second I finally
• 18:01
  Speaker 3: had it removed when I was around twenty three. After
• 18:03
  Speaker 3: the removal, sex was amazing. I could finally bottom and
• 18:06
  Speaker 3: I was really enjoying it. Everything was good for about
• 18:08
  Speaker 3: a year or so, and then it started to grow back,
• 18:11
  Speaker 3: this time bigger and more painful. I know now I'm
• 18:14
  Speaker 3: single and in the best shape of my life. I'm
• 18:16
  Speaker 3: a true verse, but I absolutely love bottoming, which I
• 18:19
  Speaker 3: feel like is like the secret of a lot of
• 18:21
  Speaker 3: people who say their verse is like they really love
• 18:23
  Speaker 3: to be a bottom.
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: Oh is that right? Yeah?
• 18:25
  Speaker 3: I think that's Unfortunately because of the skin tag, I've
• 18:30
  Speaker 3: become a strict top.
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: Does it hurt to have sex with Yes?
• 18:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's like because of this, it's like
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: getting in the way. I found a doctor who specializes
• 18:39
  Speaker 3: in gay men, but it's quite expensive and insurance won't
• 18:41
  Speaker 3: cover any.
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: Of the cost to do what remove it again? M I?
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: I guess like the last person, the last doctor was
• 18:47
  Speaker 3: not a gay man specializing doctor, and like could have
• 18:50
  Speaker 3: been done better. So I live comfortably, but this is
• 18:53
  Speaker 3: something I would have to take on some medical debt
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: for Is it worth it? Part of me thinks that's irresponsible,
• 18:58
  Speaker 3: but I also want to fully enjoy my sex life
• 19:00
  Speaker 3: as a single man. PS. I was at the Netflix
• 19:03
  Speaker 3: as a Joke show at the YouTube Theater. I'm a
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: big fan of Chelsea's and that was my favorite comedy
• 19:07
  Speaker 3: show I have ever been to.
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: Sincerely, well you can come again Netflix A Jokes as
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: a Joke Festival starts again. Say I'm at the Sabam
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: Theater this year. Okay, yes you should. But why does
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: an insurance cover this? And maybe that's a stupid question
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: because he's a gay man and they know.
• 19:21
  Speaker 3: There's a specialist, so it's like not under his insurance.
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: Okay, so it's not under his insurance. I would say
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: it's worth the investment.
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: I think if something you enjoy, yeah, yeah, that you're
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: being you're prevented from doing because of that, and it's removable,
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: I would say financially, just to take a bullet and
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: do it.
• 19:38
  Speaker 3: Yeah, especially if you're like living comfortably and like you
• 19:40
  Speaker 3: can pay it off over time.
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: And also to find out like how to get rid
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: of it. Is there a way to get rid of
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: it so that it doesn't come Is there a way
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: to ensure that it doesn't come back?
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: Right?
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: I mean no, maybe there isn't.
• 19:50
  Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe there isn't. But also the specialist would probably
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: be the one to be able to answer that.
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: So yeah, yeah, I want people to be enjoying themselves.
• 19:58
  Speaker 3: Right, exactly like I think, I think it's definitely worth it. Yeah.
