- 0:01Speaker 1: So I just spoke to God again. I was trying
- 0:05Speaker 1: not to freak out. I was trying not to freak out.
- 0:07Speaker 1: I was about to just get directly on the pod, okay?
- 0:10Speaker 1: I was about to be like, I got shit to say.
- 0:12Speaker 1: Everybody listen up. Then I was like, hold on, hold on.
- 0:16Speaker 1: Let's pray. Lamentation and gratitude. This is the protocol, motherfuckers.
- 0:22Speaker 1: Lamentation and gratitude. And we ended up at an interesting topic,
- 0:29Speaker 1: me and God. I'm not going to say too much, okay?
- 0:36Speaker 1: But there was a certain gentleman that I knew once.
- 0:40Speaker 1: He told me to call him Art. He told me
- 0:42Speaker 1: to call him Art. That's what I called him. I
- 0:46Speaker 1: think it was probably a fake name. I think he knew.
- 0:50Speaker 1: I think he had the foresight to know that I
- 0:54Speaker 1: was going to talk about him on the pod. And
- 0:59Speaker 1: he was a secret agent kind of guy. Okay, I
- 1:02Speaker 1: don't want to say too much. He was in the
- 1:10Speaker 1: special forces. Let's put it like that, okay? We are
- 1:13Speaker 1: very special, these guys. These guys. I know some of
- 1:18Speaker 1: these guys. I've met a few of them. And I
- 1:23Speaker 1: only had sex with one of them, okay? Okay, so
- 1:28Speaker 1: the story is, this is what he told me. He
- 1:33Speaker 1: warned me. He warned me. He said, I am an
- 1:35Speaker 1: extremely greedy lover. This is what he said. And I
- 1:40Speaker 1: probably bit my finger a little bit. I said, that's
- 1:44Speaker 1: kind of hot. I'm not even going to lie, that
- 1:48Speaker 1: sounds kind of hot. But actually, at the end of
- 1:50Speaker 1: the day, it really wasn't. At the end of the day,
- 1:54Speaker 1: I was kind of.
- 1:58Speaker 2: Extremely tired. I was kind of extremely tired.
- 2:02Speaker 1: From our. From our. Counter. And like. You know. And
- 2:08Speaker 1: this reminds me. Of like. The story of how I
- 2:11Speaker 1: actually lost my virginity. Like when I lost my virginity
- 2:13Speaker 1: to a man.
- 2:15Speaker 2: Like when I had sex with a man.
- 2:16Speaker 1: For the first time. I mean. I would say I
- 2:17Speaker 1: lost my virginity to a woman. Personally. But. The first
- 2:27Speaker 1: time I had sex with a man. It was sort
- 2:28Speaker 1: of like a sad situation. Like. This guy was fucked
- 2:31Speaker 1: up in the head and like, I was using him
- 2:35Speaker 1: straight up. Like, I was like, this guy is demonic.
- 2:39Speaker 1: And I think I'm just kind of trying to get
- 2:41Speaker 1: this whole virginity thing out of the way so that like,
- 2:46Speaker 1: so that like a guy is not going to exploit it.
- 2:49Speaker 1: You know, like, oh, you're a virgin. And also I lied.
- 2:52Speaker 1: I straight up lied to the guy. The first guy
- 2:54Speaker 1: I ever slept with, I lied to him and I
- 2:56Speaker 1: told him I was not a virgin. Like I told
- 2:58Speaker 1: him I had done this before. Like, ah! Sorry. Like, J. Cole. Literally,
- 3:04Speaker 1: everybody go listen to Wet Dreams by J. Cole. Seriously. Guys.
- 3:11Speaker 3: Guys.
- 3:14Speaker 1: Um.
- 3:17Speaker 2: And, uh.
- 3:25Speaker 1: And, yeah. I don't regret it. I don't look at it,
- 3:29Speaker 1: I mean, I think there are all sorts of people who, like,
- 3:31Speaker 1: really love honesty in, like, an extreme way.
- 3:37Speaker 3: And... I.
- 3:39Speaker 1: Just think, like, this is such a narrow worldview. This
- 3:43Speaker 1: is literally such a narrow worldview to have, like, you
- 3:46Speaker 1: have to tell the truth! Listen, the truth... This is
- 3:50Speaker 1: how I would describe the truth. I would say the
- 3:52Speaker 1: truth is a curation of information and details, okay? Like...
- 3:58Speaker 1: And it depends who you're talking to. Do you like
- 4:02Speaker 1: this person? Do you trust this person? Is it... Because
- 4:09Speaker 1: sometimes when you're with a certain kind of person, maybe
- 4:12Speaker 1: a lot of details aren't coming to mind, okay? Maybe... Maybe...
- 4:19Speaker 1: Maybe you're focused on other details in the room with us.
- 4:27Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying? Does anybody know what I'm saying?
- 4:32Speaker 1: I have....
- 4:36Speaker 2: There's this memory.
- 4:38Speaker 1: I don't know who did it, but.
- 4:43Speaker 1: I was led to believe that a certain Jose... Because
- 4:50Speaker 1: I had written about how I... I had cleaned his
- 4:54Speaker 1: truck once, okay? They cleaned his truck once. I don't
- 4:58Speaker 1: know what to say. I, you know, I used it
- 5:02Speaker 1: a lot on Sunday when Jeff Bezos made me his
- 5:06Speaker 1: freaking bitch. I used Jose's truck a lot, okay? And
- 5:10Speaker 1: I cleaned it once or twice.
- 5:15Speaker 2: And it wasn't for him.
- 5:17Speaker 1: It really wasn't for him because that shit.
- 5:19Speaker 2: Was looking really dirty.
- 5:24Speaker 1: But it was kind of for him, maybe a little bit.
- 5:27Speaker 2: I thought he was saying something.
- 5:30Speaker 1: And, uh, I have been accused, I have, I have accused, okay,
- 5:33Speaker 1: I was speaking to another one of the guys, and
- 5:35Speaker 1: I did accuse one of the white guys of having
- 5:37Speaker 1: a Latina fetish, because this is what I heard, this
- 5:40Speaker 1: is what I heard from another white guy, okay? He
- 5:44Speaker 1: told me that he had a Latina fetish, and not
- 5:46Speaker 1: only that, he told me that he has, like, a
- 5:48Speaker 1: thing for, like, Latinas that, like, look underage. That's what
- 5:54Speaker 1: he told me. And the guy fucking screamed at me. Like,
- 5:57Speaker 1: the first interaction we ever had. Like, he's, like, rolling
- 5:59Speaker 1: his eyes at me. He's giving me attitude. And then
- 6:02Speaker 1: he screams at me. And I'm like, bro. What did
- 6:06Speaker 1: I do to you? My understanding is.
- 6:09Speaker 1: He doesn't like his own damn sister. He's telling me.
- 6:12Speaker 1: He's coming to me like, take care of your man. Bro.
- 6:17Speaker 2: What the fuck?
- 6:19Speaker 1: What do I look like? You think I'm gonna take
- 6:21Speaker 1: care of a... I'm... No. Like... Listen, I have taken-
- 6:28Speaker 1: He won't let me take care of him. How about
- 6:30Speaker 1: fucking that, actually? Y'all about to make me act up.
- 6:35Speaker 1: I've tried.
- 6:36Speaker 2: I've tried.
- 6:39Speaker 1: We have a special situation on our hands with this guy, okay?
- 6:43Speaker 1: I've literally tried. I've pulled out all the freaking stops.
- 6:48Speaker 1: He won't let me. And the same fucking art guy
- 6:52Speaker 1: wouldn't let me either. He was like depressed. I was like,
- 6:54Speaker 1: baby boy, let me rub you down. You know how
- 6:57Speaker 1: bad I want a massage right now? And I can't
- 7:00Speaker 1: afford it. I mean, I could. I have a credit card, actually.
- 7:03Speaker 1: I have three. I have three. I might have to
- 7:08Speaker 1: do that today, actually. Ugh. We'll see. I don't know.
- 7:14Speaker 1: I just am like, at this point, I don't even
- 7:16Speaker 1: want anything. Except like to die, maybe. Like one day, eventually. Like,
- 7:23Speaker 1: no worries. I'm just talking to God a lot. I'm
- 7:28Speaker 1: writing a lot of poetry. I'm working on my stand-up routine. And,
- 7:41Speaker 1: you know, I do a little bit of yoga here
- 7:42Speaker 1: and there. What happened yesterday that made me do yoga? Oh,
- 7:47Speaker 1: I was on a Zoom call. What the heck were
- 7:50Speaker 1: they talking? The lady was, like, she was, like, I
- 7:52Speaker 1: need a chiropractor. I was, like, okay, it's time. It's
- 7:55Speaker 1: time for yoga. I, like, cracked my own. I mean,
- 7:58Speaker 1: I don't, it's not exactly, like, a crack. It's not, like,
- 8:01Speaker 1: a chiropractic crack. It's just, like, I know the movements that, like,
- 8:04Speaker 1: loosen the parts for me that need to be loosened, like. Listen,
- 8:07Speaker 1: I'm taking care of myself. I fucking been doing this, bitch! Forever! Okay?
- 8:16Speaker 1: My father, listen, he liked to party, okay? He's speaking
- 8:23Speaker 1: through me. Oh my gosh, I found this freaking postcard.
- 8:32Speaker 1: It's on my fridge now. Trashy diva! It's a piece
- 8:37Speaker 1: of trash that I found on the ground. It was
- 8:38Speaker 1: outside of the laundry store. And it's this beautiful redhead.
- 8:43Speaker 1: She's looking at me. She's looking at me. Okay. Anyways.
- 8:53Speaker 1: My dad. Maybe. Some would say he's an addict. Okay.
- 8:58Speaker 3: Okay.
- 8:59Speaker 1: This is what some people would say. You know, I
- 9:01Speaker 1: have a certain community who, listen, I tried to tell them.
- 9:04Speaker 1: I was like, I think I might be an addict. Guys,
- 9:05Speaker 1: they said, don't worry about it, girl. You're really young.
- 9:07Speaker 1: I said, you're really, really young. Don't worry about it yet.
- 9:13Speaker 1: And my understanding is, I don't think I need to
- 9:16Speaker 1: worry about it. I don't think I need to worry
- 9:22Speaker 1: about it. I'm not worried about it. I like throwing
- 9:24Speaker 1: up sometimes. I can't make myself throw up. I've tried. Just...
- 9:32Speaker 1: I mean, I can. I actually can. I actually did
- 9:35Speaker 1: throw up last night.
- 9:38Speaker 2: Due to, uh.
- 9:40Speaker 1: But ultimately, like, I didn't drive my car.
- 9:42Speaker 2: I literally didn't drive my car.
- 9:44Speaker 4: And....
- 9:46Speaker 1: Was I coping probably pretty in a big way? Yeah. Yeah.
- 9:50Speaker 1: And do they, does everybody just want to see me
- 9:54Speaker 1: institutionalized like extremely bad? Yeah, they do. And I'm not
- 9:58Speaker 1: going to do it. Fucking put me in jail. Fuck.
- 10:00Speaker 1: You're going to have to force me into the institution, bitch.
- 10:02Speaker 1: I'm not doing it. And I'm not going back to
- 10:06Speaker 1: school either because I don't have any money. I literally
- 10:11Speaker 1: don't even have money. I already did the scholarship thing. Like,
- 10:16Speaker 1: get off my back, you fucking haters. I already did it.
- 10:20Speaker 1: I already did it! If I acquire any more knowledge,
- 10:23Speaker 1: I'm gonna die. I'm literally gonna die. I don't want
- 10:31Speaker 1: any more knowledge. It's just simply too much. And then,
- 10:35Speaker 1: you know, I can hear, you know, the freaking idiot saying, like, well,
- 10:40Speaker 1: you have, like, a worthless, silly degree from, like, a
- 10:43Speaker 1: college that isn't even valid.
- 10:44Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 10:47Speaker 1: This might be true. This literally might be true. My
- 10:50Speaker 1: understanding is they're actually firing a lot of people. But honestly,
- 10:53Speaker 1: some of those people need to be fired. I'm going
- 10:55Speaker 1: to be honest. The people getting paid the most are
- 10:58Speaker 1: the people doing the least.
- 10:59Speaker 2: That's all I'm going to say.
- 11:00Speaker 1: That's all I'm going to freaking say. This is the
- 11:03Speaker 1: hill I'm freaking dying on. Motherfuckers. Because let me tell
- 11:09Speaker 1: you who's doing the most. It's the cooks and it's
- 11:12Speaker 1: the gosh darn housekeepers. Okay? And these are the people
- 11:16Speaker 1: that took care of me. These are like, admin, you
- 11:19Speaker 1: know what admin did? These motherfuckers, they looked at my
- 11:22Speaker 1: resume and they said, your love is too much. They said,
- 11:31Speaker 1: this is looking a little well-designed. They're like, nobody wants
- 11:37Speaker 1: your resume to be looking well-designed. They said, you should
- 11:40Speaker 1: make this look extremely standard, like as standard as possible.
- 11:44Speaker 1: And you should not have fun with it at all.
- 11:47Speaker 1: So I had fun with it. I literally made like
- 11:49Speaker 1: a beautiful resume. I bring it in and this freaking
- 11:52Speaker 1: white man is like, it's not basic enough. What the fuck?
- 11:58Speaker 1: What the actual hell and fuck? Oh my God. Oh
- 12:05Speaker 1: my God. Coffee. Oh my God. With the honey. I'm
- 12:15Speaker 1: out of syrup or I would do syrup. I'm going
- 12:18Speaker 1: to do a little bit of coconut sugar just for
- 12:20Speaker 1: good measure. Don't ask me what coconut sugar is. I'm
- 12:27Speaker 1: not really sure. I assume it's the sugar of a coconut.
- 12:32Speaker 1: Sucre de coco. I bet that's how they say it
- 12:36Speaker 1: in French.
- 12:38Speaker 2: Sucre de coco.
- 12:39Speaker 1: Wait. What is... I don't want to look anything up.
- 12:43Speaker 1: I'm done. I wrote poems and I'm done for the day.
- 12:46Speaker 1: I'm going right. I'm riding bikes with my freaking friend later. Okay.
- 12:53Speaker 1: The thing is, is y'all don't know shit about friendship. Okay. Men.
- 13:00Speaker 1: Y'all don't know. Y'all don't know what female, what, what
- 13:03Speaker 1: it's like for me to have a friend. You know,
- 13:08Speaker 1: and this was like something fucked up. Wait. I was
- 13:11Speaker 1: talking about... What was I talking about? Oh, man. I
- 13:13Speaker 1: think I lost it. Freaking guy. Freaking art. It all
- 13:21Speaker 1: comes back to art. And honestly... It was not that
- 13:26Speaker 1: good of sex. I'm gonna be honest. It was... I
- 13:31Speaker 1: was extremely attracted to him. And he was white. Like,
- 13:37Speaker 1: he was literally white. And... You know. I've been attracted
- 13:43Speaker 1: to all kinds of guys. Nobody believes me. Nobody believes me.
- 14:03Speaker 1: Oh my gosh. I'm eating some pistachios so the coffee
- 14:10Speaker 1: isn't alone. It's probably unethical. Everything is just probably unethical.
- 14:16Speaker 1: And we should all just like. Be really fucking ashamed
- 14:19Speaker 1: of ourselves. Constantly. Shame is extremely valuable. And we should
- 14:24Speaker 1: just wallow in shame. Constantly. For sure. For sure guy.
- 14:29Speaker 1: I'm so fucking pissed. Like. I think for the longest
- 15:05Speaker 1: time I didn't, like, okay, I'm realizing also I was
- 15:07Speaker 1: probably just pissed because I was, like, literally hungry. Like,
- 15:09Speaker 1: I feel the power coming back to me with the
- 15:12Speaker 1: nuts and the pistachios. I want more. Wait, I got
- 15:33Speaker 1: this book. I really want to read this, actually. Unfortunately,
- 15:39Speaker 1: it is a science book. But... I think it's like...
- 15:49Speaker 1: Hopefully it's written by a woman. Let's see. Let's see.
- 15:56Speaker 1: It's another secret life book. Where I.
- 16:09Speaker 1: Sylvia! Sylvia! See, if you know anything about my universe...
- 16:29Speaker 1: Everybody kept trying to get me to read Sylvia Plath
- 16:31Speaker 1: in college, like my peers. And I was like, I
- 16:33Speaker 1: don't want to do this. Well, no, that's not true.
- 16:36Speaker 1: That's not true. I probably would have, but my teacher...
- 16:39Speaker 1: I remember my teacher said... What did my... No, I
- 16:45Speaker 1: think my teacher actually taught a class on it that
- 16:47Speaker 1: I just didn't take. And I feel like somebody told me.
- 16:53Speaker 1: It might have just been a dream. It might have
- 16:54Speaker 1: been God. It might have been my dead father. It
- 16:56Speaker 1: might have been my dead grandma. I don't know. I
- 16:58Speaker 1: received a message that... Don't read this. This is a distraction.
- 17:02Speaker 1: Which this is also what I was told definitely by
- 17:04Speaker 1: my teacher about Nietzsche. They were like, don't read Nietzsche, girl,
- 17:08Speaker 1: you're gonna get distracted. And, um... Saw something very compelling.
- 17:25Speaker 1: As I was scrolling through. Spartan? Doctor... Doctor Nishi? It's
- 17:33Speaker 1: spelled different. Aww. Family member's name? Okay, okay. See, this is...
- 17:40Speaker 1: I was having a really bad time recently and.
- 17:46Speaker 1: There was some book I was reading that was like... Really,
- 17:49Speaker 1: really making it worse in a big way. So, okay.
- 17:57Speaker 1: Let me tell you something. I used to have dreams... About... Well,
- 18:04Speaker 1: I'd be like.
- 18:05Speaker 2: Trying to read.
- 18:06Speaker 1: In a dream... And... It's like I open a book
- 18:17Speaker 1: or I'm looking at a page and it's like damn
- 18:20Speaker 1: near every time... It's like the words are moving too fast.
- 18:28Speaker 1: The words are moving, first of all, and they're moving
- 18:30Speaker 1: too fast and I can't read it. And I'm like
- 18:31Speaker 1: trying to read it and it's like the fucking Star Wars.
- 18:34Speaker 1: It's literally like Star Wars. Like when it's playing that story...
- 18:38Speaker 1: In the beginning or end, I don't know. I'm not
- 18:40Speaker 1: super familiar with Star Wars. But you know what I'm
- 18:42Speaker 1: talking about. When it's angled and it's running through the
- 18:48Speaker 1: text really fast. I can't read this fast. I really
- 18:52Speaker 1: can't read this fast. And you know, it makes me
- 18:57Speaker 1: think of my good ex. My proper ex who asked...
- 19:07Speaker 1: I was going to say we did it right, but
- 19:09Speaker 1: I don't know. We did something. We did something for sure.
- 19:17Speaker 1: He's like married to a politician or something. I used
- 19:21Speaker 1: to be the politician. Her and I actually used to
- 19:24Speaker 1: do campaigning together. Believe it or not. And I don't
- 19:29Speaker 1: have any issue with her. I heard through the grapevine
- 19:32Speaker 1: that she has an issue with me. fucking story of
- 19:35Speaker 1: my goddamn life, like, whatever, the politicians are mad at
- 19:39Speaker 1: me again, okay, I need to go to stand-up, oh
- 19:44Speaker 1: my gosh, if I'm riding my bike later, with my friend.
- 19:50Speaker 1: Maybe I can convince him to go to stand up
- 19:52Speaker 1: with me. Yay. Okay. Because like the stand up place.
- 19:58Speaker 1: And it's stand up day right. It's Tuesday. I'm pretty
- 20:03Speaker 1: sure it's stand up day. Which do I want to
- 20:05Speaker 1: do stand up. No but I. I'm curious to get
- 20:09Speaker 1: his perspective on this place. I'm hoping it's different. Like,
- 20:14Speaker 1: it changed a lot. Every time I went, it was different.
- 20:18Speaker 1: And then it got way too populated with the youths.
- 20:20Speaker 1: It got way too freaking populated. And like, I like
- 20:27Speaker 1: the youths. And, and, wait, what is this place called?
- 20:34Speaker 1: It brought up a really distracting place first. Oh, boy. Wait,
- 20:44Speaker 1: it's not Halloween. It's the 27th. See, I literally dissociate
- 20:48Speaker 1: from the number 27. I seriously really do. In a
- 20:52Speaker 1: big way. You know, and I told my sister this, actually.
- 20:58Speaker 1: The last anniversary of my father's death, I needed the
- 21:03Speaker 1: date for work. And I... I kept looking at my phone.
- 21:13Speaker 1: And I kept just dissociating from the date. And then
- 21:16Speaker 1: I'd be like, I need the date. And I'd look
- 21:18Speaker 1: at my phone and I'd just dissociate. Straight up. And
- 21:24Speaker 1: then eventually it clicked. And I was like, oh, this
- 21:28Speaker 1: is the day my dad died. This is why I
- 21:32Speaker 1: try not to look at the date. Duh. I don't
- 21:42Speaker 1: need to cry because I don't feel. I could cry.
- 21:48Speaker 1: Like if I really wanted to cry, I could. But
- 21:53Speaker 1: I don't require to cry, I don't think. I really,
- 22:01Speaker 1: really want to go to this. But I don't even know. Like,
- 22:12Speaker 1: they're not advertising it anymore, which leads me to believe... Okay. Yeah! Okay, okay, okay.
- 22:21Speaker 1: I'm gonna send this to my friend really quick. Not
- 22:31Speaker 1: my long distance, friends. Why they gotta pop up first?
- 22:38Speaker 3: Ugh.
- 22:41Speaker 1: Is fucking haunting me at all times. I think this
- 22:56Speaker 1: guy's working is the problem. Tomorrow. Everybody's just so busy.
- 23:11Speaker 1: Not me. Not me. I got a book here by
- 23:14Speaker 1: Sylvia Tara. PhD. You can go ahead and look up
- 23:22Speaker 1: her work and see if you can guess which one. Oh,
- 23:28Speaker 1: I guess I already said part of the title. Never mind.
- 23:31Speaker 1: And the captions are Michael, or not the captions, but
- 23:36Speaker 1: the reviews are Michael, David, and Carl. Like, these are
- 23:39Speaker 1: highly symbolic. These are highly symbolic. And, you know, a hater...
- 23:46Speaker 1: A hater who's just not so sure. A hater who low-key,
- 23:51Speaker 1: it would seem, has lied to me recently. Um.
- 23:55Speaker 3: Um.
- 24:17Speaker 1: Is that my own memory? I don't remember. I think
- 24:23Speaker 1: they are zapping my memory from afar, actually. And, um.
- 24:29Speaker 3: And, um.
- 24:55Speaker 1: Yeah, I just think this person confused me a lot.
- 25:11Speaker 1: And I can't remember. Now I can't remember the freaking...
- 25:17Speaker 1: I can't remember. And they're, like, really weird about, like, I...
- 25:26Speaker 1: I don't... I don't know. I don't want... Is it
- 25:29Speaker 1: that they don't want to change? Is it that they
- 25:32Speaker 1: just simply don't? Is it that... Well, because, no, they said.
- 25:38Speaker 1: They wrote it down. They freaking wrote it in a
- 25:41Speaker 1: letter to me. They said... I'm committing to the path
- 25:45Speaker 1: I've always committed to. Something like that. And... I mean,
- 25:56Speaker 1: I don't care. I mean, that's fine. You can do that.
- 25:59Speaker 1: I can't do that. I don't think this is something
- 26:02Speaker 1: that's accessible to me. I really don't. And yeah, I
- 26:11Speaker 1: can already hear this fucking stupid argument. Like, oh, I'm
- 26:14Speaker 1: not saying you should. Okay, then why are you confusing me?
- 26:17Speaker 1: Why are you spinning me in circles? Why are you
- 26:19Speaker 1: doing this? Because it's fun?
- 26:24Speaker 4: Hmm.
- 26:26Speaker 1: This is Mr. Doesn't-Wanna-Fucking-Ever-Have-Fun. That's not true, Mamrie. That's not true, Mamrie.
- 26:41Speaker 1: Now calm down, Mamrie.
- 26:45Speaker 2: Does anybody know who this is from?
- 26:48Speaker 1: Nobody knows who this is from. Oh, somebody does. Somebody does.
- 26:55Speaker 1: Somebody does. I'm not sure who, but somebody does.
- 26:59Speaker 4: Now, calm down, Mamrie.
- 27:13Speaker 1: He likes to have fun in some ways. And, yeah.
- 27:20Speaker 1: I have faith. I mean, I literally have faith that
- 27:23Speaker 1: Whatever's gonna happen is what's meant to happen. I'm not
- 27:26Speaker 1: really all that pressed about anything. I'm just gonna press
- 27:32Speaker 1: into my little squishy here. I just don't know. I mean,
- 27:41Speaker 1: what's the protocol? Am I supposed to go to fucking rehab?
- 27:44Speaker 1: Is this what y'all want? Like, seriously? This is what
- 27:48Speaker 1: y'all want? This is what everybody wants? Faith should be
- 27:51Speaker 1: completely sober. I don't know. great i don't know you
- 27:57Speaker 1: know and i i knew another guy this guy was
- 27:59Speaker 1: addicted to heroin and he was also diagnosed as a
- 28:02Speaker 1: psychopath i kind of liked him straight up like he
- 28:07Speaker 1: never tried to hurt me at all he was extremely
- 28:10Speaker 1: respectful i met his entire family and they were awesome
- 28:15Speaker 1: and he learned empathy you can learn empathy and yeah
- 28:20Speaker 1: he he did heroin at a time i've never done
- 28:22Speaker 1: heroin I've never done heroin. I used to donate plasma,
- 28:27Speaker 1: so it might appear as though I did, but I
- 28:29Speaker 1: was just poor, and I donated my fucking life force
- 28:31Speaker 1: to the freaking machine, dude. And it made me extremely sick.
- 28:38Speaker 1: I fainted. I fainted on my aunt's boat. I literally fainted.
- 28:42Speaker 1: I gave plasma, and then I went, and I was
- 28:45Speaker 1: manning the boat. They were like, oh, Faith, do you
- 28:49Speaker 1: want to steer? I was like, oh, whatever. Sure. I'm like,
- 28:54Speaker 1: probably drunk. I don't know. And I'm like, probably already sunburned.
- 28:59Speaker 1: It doesn't take that long for me to get sunburned.
- 29:01Speaker 1: I probably forgot sunscreen. Or I chose not to put
- 29:06Speaker 1: sunscreen on. I don't know. Or I just donated plasma.
- 29:12Speaker 1: I literally just donated plasma. And they were messing me
- 29:19Speaker 1: up at the plasma place. Because, dude, this... really, really, actually,
- 29:27Speaker 1: deeply upset me, and nobody, nobody gave a fuck about this, like,
- 29:32Speaker 1: in my family, because there's classes, there's weight classes for
- 29:37Speaker 1: donating plasma, right, and when I weighed myself at home
- 29:43Speaker 1: I was in the middle class okay and then I
- 29:49Speaker 1: don't know what they were doing I think they were
- 29:50Speaker 1: trying to harvest more than their freaking fair share of
- 29:53Speaker 1: my freaking plasma because they would up it by like
- 29:56Speaker 1: 10 pounds dead ass On this stupid little scale that's
- 30:00Speaker 1: probably lying so that they can have more of my
- 30:02Speaker 1: literal life force. And it made me extremely ill. It
- 30:06Speaker 1: actually made me extremely ill. Because I was kind of
- 30:08Speaker 1: right on the cusp of middle and upper class. And
- 30:11Speaker 1: this is not financial at all. This is, I'm just,
- 30:14Speaker 1: I guess I am extremely large. I don't know what
- 30:17Speaker 1: to tell you. Oh my gosh. During one of my former, like, episodes,
- 30:37Speaker 1: I was having an episode, and I saw this meme
- 30:40Speaker 1: that was so funny.
- 30:43Speaker 3: Oh!
- 30:43Speaker 1: I was literally gonna talk about this before, and I
- 30:45Speaker 1: wasn't sure if I should, but it's come back. So...
- 30:54Speaker 1: When I went to see this guy once in a
- 30:58Speaker 1: country far, far away from here, I made an insensitive joke.
- 31:08Speaker 1: I did make an insensitive joke. This is the kind
- 31:10Speaker 1: of thing that flies in my family. I don't know
- 31:12Speaker 1: what to tell you. Like, we're not, like, I don't
- 31:15Speaker 1: know what to tell you. I know very little about history.
- 31:19Speaker 1: This was one thing I knew. It was a horror
- 31:21Speaker 1: that the freaking Westerners did when they came over and
- 31:24Speaker 1: they colonized this shit, okay? And I made an insensitive
- 31:27Speaker 1: joke about smallpox, okay? And then he called me giant.
- 31:34Speaker 1: He called me giant. And it's like, I've had a
- 31:37Speaker 1: lifetime of eating disorders, bro. Please. It's like, obviously. Yeah, yeah. Obviously.
- 31:45Speaker 1: I'm supposed to understand that it wasn't about that. And obviously,
- 31:49Speaker 1: I'm not insecure about that. But it was just like...
- 31:55Speaker 1: What the fuck? It's just like, we are not... We
- 31:59Speaker 1: are clearly not on the same team. It would seem.
- 32:08Speaker 1: The way he behaves towards me. It's like, do you
- 32:14Speaker 1: want me to communicate or not? I didn't communicate enough.
- 32:18Speaker 1: And now it's like, oh, well, now I'm scared you're
- 32:21Speaker 1: not going to communicate enough. I'm like, all I do
- 32:25Speaker 1: is communicate. This is all I do. All day. All day.
- 32:32Speaker 1: And I don't, there's some people I don't want to
- 32:38Speaker 1: communicate with. Straight up. And I don't have to. And
- 32:41Speaker 1: I'm not going to. So... But the thing I saw
- 32:48Speaker 1: that was really, really funny... It helped me reframe this whole...
- 32:54Speaker 1: I'm massive. I'm a monster. Oh, my God. I'm, like,
- 32:57Speaker 1: a tall beast. I'm, like, a woman, first of all.
- 33:00Speaker 1: Everybody hates us. And then, also, I'm, like, inbred. I got, like,
- 33:04Speaker 1: fucking freckles and, like, blue eyes and, like, blonde hair.
- 33:07Speaker 1: And I just kind of look, like, extremely weird, you know,
- 33:10Speaker 1: or whatever they say. And.
- 33:18Speaker 1: Okay. And it's like, yeah, I just feel massive. I
- 33:23Speaker 1: was telling someone, I don't even remember. Oh, I do remember.
- 33:27Speaker 1: My friend, Caleb. I used to work with him.
- 33:37Speaker 4: Um.
- 33:46Speaker 1: Um... I was telling him, I was like... Like, I
- 34:03Speaker 1: was starving myself. I was straight up starving myself in
- 34:05Speaker 1: high school. It wasn't for attention. At the time, it
- 34:09Speaker 1: was probably some kind of... I don't think it was
- 34:12Speaker 1: competitive either. They say eating disorders are competitive, and I
- 34:15Speaker 1: do see how that is true. Like, I think being
- 34:19Speaker 1: in the presence of someone who is more anorexic than
- 34:22Speaker 1: you when you're anorexic, like, it does fuel the anorexia.
- 34:26Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying? Like, an enabler kind of situation,
- 34:31Speaker 1: and it's like, whatever. So, I think that is true.
- 34:35Speaker 1: I don't think I really, like, friends was not my
- 34:41Speaker 1: priority at all in high school. Like, at all. I
- 34:48Speaker 1: had one friend at a time, and usually some shit
- 34:54Speaker 1: would go down in the grapevine, and somebody would fucking
- 34:58Speaker 1: be mad at me. The whole community would be mad
- 35:02Speaker 1: at me, because I said something probably insensitive or something,
- 35:05Speaker 1: and everybody is just extremely bitch-made these days. I don't
- 35:08Speaker 1: know what to tell you. I would read The Coddling
- 35:13Speaker 1: of the American Mind, perhaps, by Jonathan Haidt. Um, I'm
- 35:21Speaker 1: pretty sure I did read that. Actually, I'm pretty sure
- 35:23Speaker 1: I forced my freaking, what do you call this, my
- 35:26Speaker 1: pit boss? My pit boss? My guy who was smoking
- 35:31Speaker 1: the meats? I'm pretty sure I forced him to listen
- 35:33Speaker 1: to it with me, because I put that shit, I
- 35:35Speaker 1: put that audible, I put that audiobook on the freaking
- 35:38Speaker 1: aux at work. We were there, like, super early in
- 35:41Speaker 1: the morning, and I was like, time to learn. Um.
- 35:46Speaker 1: And he might have had headphones in. I honestly don't know.
- 35:48Speaker 1: He was usually doing his own thing. He was smoking
- 35:52Speaker 1: the meats. I was, like, cutting the cheese. I was
- 35:56Speaker 1: cutting the cheese and.
- 35:58Speaker 2: What else?
- 36:01Speaker 1: I cut a lot of lettuce. I cut a lot
- 36:02Speaker 1: of potatoes. You would not believe how many potatoes I cut.
- 36:05Speaker 1: We hand cut those bitches. We hand cut them. Dude,
- 36:09Speaker 1: we would feel... On a weekend, we would fill, I
- 36:13Speaker 1: want to say, seven to nine five-gallon buckets. So what's that,
- 36:18Speaker 1: like 35?
- 36:18Speaker 3: And to 45, question mark? I used to be good
- 36:27Speaker 3: at math, but the thing is, is my mom teaches math, dude.
- 36:34Speaker 1: She made me like math. I didn't even want to
- 36:36Speaker 1: like it. She's like, math is essential. No, it's not.
- 36:43Speaker 1: Ever heard of a calculator? We got calculators on our
- 36:45Speaker 1: damn phones. What are we doing? This is stupid. I'm
- 36:50Speaker 1: not doing math. I'm not remembering math. I'm not storing
- 36:53Speaker 1: math in my head anymore. This is stupid. This is
- 36:57Speaker 1: literally stupid. I am storing memories. Memories. Pictures of dogs
- 37:06Speaker 1: that I've loved. Pictures of cats. images of cats um
- 37:19Speaker 1: what else but yeah I was telling my friend that
- 37:27Speaker 1: I used to work with I was telling him I
- 37:29Speaker 1: was like it's just like I was so I was
- 37:34Speaker 1: fainting like everyday from not eating I was like literally
- 37:40Speaker 1: fainting everyday And this is high school. It got to
- 37:46Speaker 1: a point where that's what was happening. It took a while.
- 37:50Speaker 1: I mean, I think I was like a little chubby
- 37:52Speaker 1: before that. And then.
- 37:55Speaker 2: And.
- 37:58Speaker 1: Then I don't really know what happened. My dad died,
- 38:01Speaker 1: question mark? Everyone else seemed to gain weight after that.
- 38:07Speaker 1: I was like, I have no reason to go on. Yeah. Now,
- 38:13Speaker 1: now I have poetry, okay? Now I have the pod.
- 38:19Speaker 1: I have a couple of church options. I actually have,
- 38:21Speaker 1: I would say there's three, there's four churches I am
- 38:25Speaker 1: somewhat familiar with. And, um, you know, I got, I got,
- 38:33Speaker 1: the squirrels are putting on a show for me right now.
- 38:36Speaker 3: Ugh!
- 38:37Speaker 1: This, they want me to talk about. This freaking bitch. No. No.
- 38:46Speaker 1: This lady. She was my teacher. Okay. And I guess
- 38:51Speaker 1: I don't know that it's she. They. They had my
- 38:59Speaker 1: back in the beginning. And they had a lot of
- 39:05Speaker 1: information and a lot of tools. Like they were. I
- 39:08Speaker 1: just remember like being. It was like Zoom. Office hours.
- 39:12Speaker 1: So it was, like, online, and they were sending me links.
- 39:15Speaker 1: They were sending me so many gosh darn links and, like, titles, and,
- 39:18Speaker 1: you know, I'm... I had never even exchanged information this fast.
- 39:24Speaker 1: I was, like, I was blown away by this. And
- 39:26Speaker 1: I'm taking notes, and I feel... like I engaged with
- 39:31Speaker 1: a lot of the stuff they sent me because I was, like,
- 39:34Speaker 1: I was kind of impressed. I don't know. And then, like,
- 39:40Speaker 1: I sought their guidance later, and I had a dream.
- 39:44Speaker 1: I literally had a dream. I had a vision. And
- 39:48Speaker 1: they were like, this is not ambitious enough. They were like,
- 39:54Speaker 1: this is... I just wanted to, like, do what I love.
- 40:02Speaker 1: I literally just wanted to do what I love. Which is, like, be, like,
- 40:10Speaker 1: unemotional and, like, spiritual and, like, kind of holistic being.
- 40:19Speaker 1: And they were like, this is not ambitious enough. They
- 40:23Speaker 1: were like, this is never going to fly. And they
- 40:27Speaker 1: were right. Because in my plan meeting, that did not
- 40:29Speaker 1: go so well. It really did not go so well.
- 40:37Speaker 1: They were just like, this is too much, girl. Squirrels
- 40:42Speaker 1: are being extremely funny right now. And this lady, she
- 40:48Speaker 1: has the word squirrel in her Instagram handle. And I
- 40:56Speaker 1: don't want to reach out to her, really. I mean, yeah.
- 41:00Speaker 1: I'm not ambitious enough, okay. Join the freaking club of
- 41:12Speaker 1: people who say this now. I was too ambitious, now
- 41:15Speaker 1: I'm not ambitious enough. God forbid. God forbid. I didn't
- 41:40Speaker 1: force myself to go to sleep with my last job.
- 41:43Speaker 1: I didn't just fucking numb myself out with sleeping pills.
- 41:48Speaker 1: I didn't just completely turn myself off so that I
- 41:52Speaker 1: could go into work and do it the next day.
- 41:55Speaker 1: And I also didn't call out sick because they'd be
- 41:59Speaker 1: calling out sick so much. And it really just fucks
- 42:02Speaker 1: up my life. Everyone calls out sick and I'm like,
- 42:07Speaker 1: are you really sick or you just wanted me to
- 42:09Speaker 1: work till fucking 7pm? You wanted me to work 7
- 42:12Speaker 1: to 7. Me.
- 42:17Speaker 3: A girl.
- 42:17Speaker 1: A woman. Question mark. I didn't call out sick. And
- 42:30Speaker 1: I didn't get institutionalized. And I don't even think I
- 42:40Speaker 1: had access. I mean, I could be wrong about this.
- 42:42Speaker 1: I want to say that you don't have access to FMLA,
- 42:48Speaker 1: the family medical leave, whatever. I want to say you
- 42:50Speaker 1: don't have access to that as the position that I was.
- 42:53Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, I could have taken this. I could
- 42:57Speaker 1: have taken a sick day. fundamentally I didn't feel sick
- 43:04Speaker 1: in the morning I felt fine in the morning I
- 43:06Speaker 1: felt bad when I was crashing you know in the
- 43:09Speaker 1: middle of the day um and yeah I went a
- 43:16Speaker 1: little crazy because I couldn't sleep or I wouldn't sleep
- 43:22Speaker 1: I couldn't sleep I tried There were several nights where
- 43:28Speaker 1: I just laid in bed awake and I just literally
- 43:33Speaker 1: held my chest and I literally just prayed. Cried. And
- 43:53Speaker 1: I hope nobody else is doing this. I really do. Like,
- 43:55Speaker 1: I hope no one else is going through this. I'm hearing.
- 44:04Speaker 1: I'm hearing that something's going on with the women right now.
- 44:08Speaker 1: There's kind of two camps, it would seem. There's, like,
- 44:10Speaker 1: extreme workaholics. And then there's, like, just... I don't know.
- 44:21Speaker 1: I heard from another person that, like, something's going on
- 44:24Speaker 1: with everybody's period. I don't know if this is, like,
- 44:27Speaker 1: geological or what, but... I heard that the poles can, like, shift.
- 44:33Speaker 1: I feel like my geology freaking teacher told me this.
- 44:36Speaker 1: And he was like, it's gonna happen soon. And I
- 44:41Speaker 1: should have asked more questions. I was like... Because I
- 44:45Speaker 1: was like, what does that even mean? How are the
- 44:47Speaker 1: poles switching? Like... Something like that. Something switched sides. And
- 44:54Speaker 1: they were like, we don't know what's going to happen.
- 44:58Speaker 1: We'll see. They're like, it should be fine. That could
- 45:08Speaker 1: have been a dream. I'm not sure. I'm really not sure.
- 45:15Speaker 1: pretty sure it was real because i remember feeling extremely
- 45:18Speaker 1: concerned when i was told this i was like what
- 45:21Speaker 1: do you mean the poles are switching what do you
- 45:25Speaker 1: mean what do you mean the magnets are doing something
- 45:27Speaker 1: new oh And I still don't know. I still don't know. Ultimately,
- 45:49Speaker 1: I was like, this is not my cross to bear.
- 45:51Speaker 1: The professionals are on it, I think. This cannot be
- 45:55Speaker 1: my business. Yeah, what's up? I'm Carlos' mom. That's what
- 46:00Speaker 1: I am. Yeah. Yeah? Okay. Can I hold you?
- 46:09Speaker 2: I'm forklifting you. Just kidding, I'll hold you like a baby.
- 46:20Speaker 1: Thank you for letting me hold you, Carlos. Boys don't
- 46:25Speaker 1: want to be held these days. Boys are like really,
- 46:39Speaker 1: I don't know. There's something going on. It probably has
- 46:44Speaker 1: to do with the poles and the magnets. Probably physical
- 46:48Speaker 1: science related. I don't really like it. Like, why not
- 46:59Speaker 1: just let someone love you? Is it really that scary?
- 47:06Speaker 1: Is it really that scary? I let people love me
- 47:09Speaker 1: all the time. I kind of prefer, this is like
- 47:14Speaker 1: kind of my preferred state, is being loved, actually. Why
- 47:20Speaker 1: do y'all want to be hated so bad? What have
- 47:22Speaker 1: you done? Like, what have you done? Seriously, it's like,
- 47:26Speaker 1: you feel like you need to be punished forever. Everybody,
- 47:30Speaker 1: go listen to the song, Grace. By Grace something. Let
- 47:38Speaker 1: me look it up. No, Carlos, stop. I'm holding you.

- 48:31Speaker 1: the good ones, you know? Like, the good, like, actual
- 48:33Speaker 1: people and not, like, the corporations, you know? Like, I
- 48:36Speaker 1: thought we wanted to, like, be, like, in peace. I
- 48:47Speaker 1: don't get it. I've been saying this. I've been saying
- 48:50Speaker 1: this since I was like six. Literally. And um. I
- 48:59Speaker 1: don't know. Squabble up. Alright. We're squabbling up. Let's do
- 49:04Speaker 1: it guys. Yay.
