Before we get started, I want to do a little self-promo for us because I feel like we haven't done that in a little bit. I'm wearing old merch, but new merch, ready to go for sale. You can buy that. We have some in stock. We will hand package it and ship it to you. Subscribe to YouTube. If you're not subscribed, follow the Instagram.

I just want to give a little self-promote there. We cannot forget about the big announcement from last week. Oh my god, no, I did forget. Yeah, you did forget. Oh, we have a guest in here. Phineas literally just opened the door himself and he's just like, hey guys, what's up? He's like, I'm here. Anyways, we'll let him be. Yeah, you can stay. Unless he like touches the... He's going to jump on the computer 100%.

Anyways, guys, I know we mentioned it about two weeks ago, and I don't know if we mentioned it last episode just because we had a guest on and we just did not even do a catch up because we were in L.A. But we have our fitness app coming and we are so excited about that. We don't have a release date quite yet. Hopefully we will soon, but we want to take you along the entire journey with that. So make sure you're following the Instagram is fitnessuncensored.app on

on Instagram and that's the only platform you can find it on right now is Instagram yes so exciting so much fun to like finally be able to talk to you guys about that and obviously once it's out you'll hear us non-stop yeah talking about it um but even just the support over there and the following and engaging on the post um really means a lot so thank you if you already followed the page appreciate it a ton

Um, and yeah, we are just going to do this episode to catch up, chit chat, because this week that we're sitting here filming this, we have three interviews. Yeah. And let me just say this right now. I have missed you guys. I feel like I have not sat down and talked to you guys in a while because we missed last week. We did. And the...

Q&A. No, it wasn't a Q&A. Yes, it was. It was a Q&A. It was a sex talk Q&A. The sex talk Q&A was so much fun just sitting down and like talking to the girlies. It was honestly like...

analytics wise, like one of our best episodes. So if you haven't listened, it was, it was a really good one. I found entertaining. Now we know what you guys want us to talk about. Yeah, clearly you perverts. Not even fitness. You guys want more than that. Perverts. But obviously I'm biased because it's my podcast, but I thought it was really fun and I thought it was really good. So you guys should check that one out. But other than that, we haven't just talked to the girlies in like three weeks. And let me tell you, I have a list of things that need to be talked about. Okay.

I'm not even kidding. It's been a big old list. But let's kind of recap on last week because last week was so much fun. And I know you guys saw we were in L.A. from Tuesday to Friday. I had so much fun. It was okay. I'm going to say the last L.A. trip we had with Raw Gear staying at the girls house. That was like my favorite. But in a different aspect. Can I give hot tea? Yeah. It was good in the moment. And then it was almost like after it got like.

like like ruined yeah as of like maybe like like actions that occurred after yeah that to me kind of made like the connections I thought I built on that trip yeah not worthwhile anymore so then the trip was almost like ruined for me in my head because I was like oh I had all these good memories and it's like

were they even still good and are they even still good? So I'd say this was my favorite. Yeah. I loved that we rented a car. Um, I always thought to myself, renting a car is so expensive guys. No, it's actually not. Um, especially in LA. Yeah. Like it was $600 in total and I included gas with that. So like it could have been like $500 when we were there for four days and

but I purchased the gas so that way I could return the car empty. So that was like an extra like $80 on top of like what the price was. You could, if you really wanted to like do it differently, get it cheaper. But at the end of the day, like kind of made more sense because the cheap, the gas is so expensive in LA. $6 a gallon. So yeah, it was worth it because it's,

Ubering everywhere. The amount of places we went, the amount of Ubers we would have had to spend at all of those places we tried going and just having our, it was amazing. It was already like $100 just to get from the airport to Zoo Culture. So that's boom. $100 right there. And I have one more year, guys, until I don't have to pay that underage fee.

Once you turn 25, no more underage fee. But right now it's $27 a day on at least budget was. And I think enterprise are the two that I've ever purchased through. And it was like $27, $28 a day, which sucks. But if you're only there for like four to five days, yeah. And for a city like LA specifically, like if you came to Austin,

Sorry, excuse me. If you came to Austin and you were saying downtown, I'd be like 100% don't rent a car. Yeah, don't. Like, do not rent a car. Like, you could literally scooter and walk most of the places you want to go. LA is... Every place we went, like, 30 minutes was close. Yeah. 30 minutes was, like, a close trip. 20, around the corner. We witnessed every single neighborhood in LA. Like, Beverly Hills, West Hollywood.

Hollywood. Topanga. Oh my goodness, guys. Topanga. Didn't even know that was really a thing. We went on the first day. We met up with Nikki Font and Callie Fuller. Sweetest, kindest, most beautiful souls. I love them. Like if there were people that I wish lived in Austin, Texas and were like my besties here, it would be them because every time we hang out, especially Nikki, we've hung out with like quite a few times and it's always been so like

It's like a breath of fresh air hanging out with her. It's so nice. You know why? Because you know it's rare. A lot of times it's either like you meet up with someone on social media and they're the same as they were on social media or they're worse. Nikki and Callie are like... It's like, oh, you have a cool social media and you seem so cool on the internet. Oh, wait, and you're better and even kinder in person. And I feel like that's where people are either the same or they're worse. And they're like...

Shop Nikki font active wear guys. It makes your booty look fucking bomb. I think I have a code for that. I don't know. You can try it. Do you have a code? Uh, no, I don't think so. You can try it. I don't know if it will work. Nikki was my first sponsor, PR gifter like ever since, since day one. So we go, we go way back. Cause like all, we were sitting at lunch and I was like, wow, we're like all like business women. It's like crazy. Cause like,

Not many times people at our young age, you can all sit down and just talk about business stuff. It'd not be a competition, if that makes sense. It was generally conversations where we were just chatting. So it was just nice to sit down and talk about things with like-minded people. That was fun. But then, on the way back, we drove...

We took the back roads because we didn't want to get on the highway because the traffic was so bad. And we went to... In the scenic routes. Yeah, scenic routes are nice. Topanga, Topanga, whatever it's called. Topanga. Topanga. Sing the song. I could take you to Topanga.

A trippy red song? Yeah, but anyway, I was like, where the hell are we? We're driving through, like, literally the, like, in between mountains. Like, we're, like, down in the bottom of the mountains. On both sides, you have a mountain on both sides. And each house is, like, literally on top of the road. And each house has, like, these weird fairy signs and all that. It was fairy tale land. It was fairy tale land. It was so weird. It was so bizarre. Like, we passed one, like,

hippie spiritual like fair and we're like oh that's an interesting place and there's another one and then there's another one and we're like oh so it's like the neighborhood i was like where are we i don't know if you guys have ever been to a renaissance festival i've been there actually really cool

But if you guys have ever been to one of those, it was like one of those. It was so funny. It was so interesting. Keep in mind, the roads are so narrow and swervy. Like every two seconds you're doing like a U-turn. Like it's just constantly turning. And I'm driving trying to pay attention to the street. And all of a sudden I just see this like old elderly man who is shirtless, no shoes on. And he's like...

And he just like comes out of nowhere and then goes back. But that was like the only human interaction I saw on that entire road. The way you're explaining it, I see like a naked old man running in front of our car like, ah! No, but that's what it literally felt like. Like he just came out of nowhere. He was just like a shirtless like...

old man i was just like whoa i don't want to hate you man but like i'm so distracted right now it was a very interesting la is a very interesting place la is not my favorite place i mean i have a great time with the raw gear people there um great time seeing like our friends that live in la obviously but just like as a whole of a city la is not my favorite place um there's cool places in la like love like let me some catch let me some green juice right and

But LA is such a weird place. Like, it's just bizarre. Yeah, I will say this, though. Like, I love the amount of food places and coffee shops they have there. I was just living life throughout the week, trying a new place every time we went out. I was like, this is amazing. I only go to LA to go to Air One. Yeah, that and Catch. Catch is so fire. So expensive, though, guys. The last night. So fire. Our last night there, we were there Thursday night. So keep in mind, we also went, like...

We had this event and a birthday party we were invited to on Thursday night. So before we even went out, we went to catch, just Taylor and I. And I'm thinking, I'm not going to get any drinks or anything, but I just remember the last time we were at catch, the espresso martini being so good. So I'm like, okay, I'll get it. It's a treat. I remember it being amazing. I haven't had espresso martini in forever. It was $35. And I get the drink, whatever. Amazing. I'm getting like a buzz off of it.

For $35. I better be getting to buzz off my drink. But then all of a sudden, the bartender or the waiter just comes over to us with free shots. No explanation. He goes, he says to keep the party going to keep the

the party going. Keep in mind, it's just Taylor and I. Yeah, the party in question is me with a glass of wine still half full for the past hour. Yeah. We didn't even drink or order our drinks until the food got here. Yeah, we were like debating it for so long and then I was like, you know what? F it. We're in LA. I mean...

knock on wood the plane could crash on the way home and I want to enjoy this dinner right like deep but yeah no but you know like YOLO like I'm in LA at this restaurant right now like I'm gonna get the glass of wine like spend the $35 like literally just for like the vibes to keep the party going like can you imagine going like I'm literally drinking a glass of wine and he's like

To keep the party going, here's a tequila shot. And it's like 8 p.m. No, yeah, it was like 8 p.m. And I'm like, okay, anyways. Okay, period. No idea what it was. It was like a tequila lemon drop. Yeah, it was like a lemon drop, but like tequila instead of vodka, which I assume, obviously, he took note that you're a drinker of tequila. Yeah. So he didn't want to. Yeah. Good man. Good man. Because when I mix my tequilas, I turn into something you don't want to see.

So, but yeah, then we got our check and I realized that he didn't even charge me for the full espresso martini. He only charged me $25 rather than 35. So I was like, oh, this man is like flirting right now. Like this grown man. I appreciate it. And then as we're paying, he brings over a platter of cookies. And I was like, yeah, like we like you. I've never felt like such royalty in my life. And you know, it's, it really gassed me up because I,

catch la is full of famous instagram models talkers like you could have been giving like the people from the bachelor were there like you could have been giving them free things right yeah like but you chose us so gas me up like literally like addison ray could be there like and you you gave give backstory on catch what you told me

About the indoor-outdoor. Oh, well, they told us last time we were there. Last time we were there, we were with these people that are like big LA, like...

like reality tv star people reality tv stars and their girls that are just like pretty instagram girls that are like groupies for like yeah more famous instagram people yeah that's kind of next level like they're crazy um and they were like in so we're sitting inside and apparently sitting inside is for like the people with like status and if you're outside you're lame yeah you're so we were outside because we just made our res on open table right i don't have the connect

um we do now we do now but i was like you know whatever so it's like there had to be some important pretty instagram bitches in the inside and like you gave your free stuff to us so it really just gassed me up i loved walking like through there because taylor you saw some people that you knew from the bachelor and stuff right yeah nate and rodney from the bachelorette were there guys nate like who is like seven feet tall it's actually insane if you're wondering

Yeah, no. So tall. I'm not really up to date with the Bachelor Nation, so I had no idea who he was. But I did see this one TikToker. Well, it was like a table of them. And I'm like, I can't remember what his name was, like at all. But then...

I don't know if I'm forgetting, but then he ended up being at the party that we were at later that night. I'm like, this is just weird. But before we left Catch, the bartender, or the bouncer, I'm sorry, two of the bouncers stopped us and they remembered our names. And I was like, what the heck? How do you remember our name? I was like, you don't even know my name. He was like, Taylor Olsen. I was like, what? He was like, it was on the reservation. And I'm like, didn't like 50 people come in for a reservation? How do you know mine?

yeah so then we get in conversation he's like around my age I would say maybe like a little bit older and he ends up saying like oh like take my number I'm like for what like like what the heck like you think I'm just gonna take your number I'm going back to Austin Texas so he goes and then Taylor was like well there needs to be some benefit with this and I was like yeah benefit yeah I was like but like do we get the reservation like what's

like we better be able to hit you up for a table in the inside in the inside yes so yeah i got his contact number so next time we go to la i will be hitting him up and i will be making sure we're sitting in the center of that restaurant yeah he also said some of the free stuff was from him yeah he sent it up but i guess we'll never know we'll never know we don't know um

Yeah. What was his name? Caleb or something? I can't remember. I was going to say I don't remember, but it was definitely Caleb. Yeah, his name was definitely Caleb. And then after that, we went to a party. And LA is weird, man. Yeah. It's like picky. Yeah. It's not that fun. People could be nice as ever, but it's just not that fun. And I don't know if it's because people are very...

They have followers. They're very image focused. Like, maybe you can't be, like, dancing going wild. Like, I don't know if, like, that's part of why it's kind of not... Yeah, I don't know. Like, here everyone's having, like, fun and, like, being, like, crazy. Like, being crazy, being stupid. I'm gonna throw my shirt off. And then it's, like, in LA, everyone's just kind of, like, standing around being pretty. Which, I mean, maybe we were just...

maybe there's times people aren't but that's just like the vibe i guess no yeah i totally agree but at the same time like i liked being in that environment just because it's different you know like it felt like no no it was like it was a different type of vibe but that's why i kind of liked it because i don't really experience that type of vibe you know what i'm saying yeah i just couldn't that couldn't be my oh every day no not every time not at all but it was cool they had like

a psychic there. They had a cartoon artist. They had a guy on stilts. They had a clown. If you're on YouTube, I'm going to get up. I'm going to show you guys the cartoon. Yeah. She'll show you the photo because it's literally insane. We were sitting there for five minutes and he comes up with this massive drawing of the two of us. And I was like, this looks just like me. The fake tits and all. He literally made my boobs look massive. My eyebrows look great. I'm not sure where you got that. Yeah, mine too. Yeah.

But that was the good takeaway from the party was the cartoon. And the photo booth. There was a photo booth. We always love photo booths. If I'm ever going to have my own event or party, I'm going to make sure there's a photo booth there because that was amazing. A million percent. Yeah. Well, we ended up leaving that around like 1130 because I knew we had to drive back.

I only had like one drink. Okay, guys, at this point. Oh, sober as can be. I had an espresso martini and a shot, and then I didn't even get a drink at the party. The espresso martini and the shot were like two hours before. I got the drink at the party, and I took two sips out of it. I was more or less just walking around with it so that people wouldn't question if I was drinking or not.

and I was sober the entire time. So I was like, Taylor, like, let's get out of here now. Like, I have to drive 45 minutes. It's always the best when I was like, I kind of don't want to be here, but like, I'm not going to be the buzzkill, right? And she was like, we could leave soon. And I'm like, yeah. Yes. Yeah. And our friend Tyler was with us too. He was taking a hotel like,

what like two blocks down the road so he didn't have to come with us but we had to drive so i was like tyler yo we're leaving catch you later and um he was like i'll come with you guys and then we just dropped him off at this hotel we went back but that was our thursday night or last night lots of fun then we woke up on our last day and went to the hollywood sign we were really planning to go on this hike because hikes aren't something i mean i didn't grow up where there's like hikes there you can't hike in like boston right

Well, not Boston, but like I would go to like New Hampshire, Vermont, like that type of stuff. Okay. Well, I can't hike where I live. Yeah. So yeah, we're like, let's go on a freaking hike. Let's go hike to the Hollywood sign and be tourist for fun. When you look up ice, the Hollywood sign, there's like 50 and then there's all different

descriptions for each one. Like, Sam would be like, let's go to this one. It says it's the easiest. And I'm like, well, I'm looking at that on this website and it says it's the hardest and it's 10 miles. Like, they all said something different. Like, literally one thing would be like, easy, done in 30 minutes, hard, three hours, a

uphill 17 miles and you're like well i don't which one is it yeah and when we got there i was like not really sure if we were at the right place because like you pull up and there's no direct path it's just a massive parking lot with like a few cars of people getting in and out i'm like okay this must be it like this has to be it so we started hiking and i like i don't estimate like

length very well. So I'm like looking at the top of the mountain and I see like little ants like walking on a path. I'm like, you're telling me I have to get all the way up there. No, yeah. And we, it took us a while. Like I was honestly like, I would say I felt very out of shape doing it. But once I like finished, I was like, okay, maybe I'm not like we lapped a few people, but yeah,

Let me just say this. We were still very far from that damn sign when we got to the top. And I was so upset because you're telling me I just spent about 45 minutes to an hour hiking up a massive mountain just to be about a mile away from the sign to take a photo with it. I was so upset. Yeah.

I mean, I still enjoyed the idea of finishing the hike. We definitely finished pretty quick because it was supposed to be an hour there, an hour back, and we got to the bottom in an hour 15, including times to stop and get TikTok, do the whole thing. And getting there, I was like, if we get to this place, driving the whole way, and all I was thinking was, if we get there and pulling up is guys with hiking gear or Iron Man level,

does this for a living level people, I was going to shit my pants. But everyone starting when we were starting looked totally average. It's like, you know, girls in their matching sets just ready to go. Yeah. So I was like, okay, we can vibe with this. Like, we're fine. 100%. So the only thing I wish I did is I wish I brought a backpack. Uh-huh. So that way I could put some things in it and not be holding my water bottle the whole time, holding my keys the whole time. I literally shoved my keys into, like, the side leg of my, like,

biker shorts yeah and that would have been nice to have maybe a little bit more water i drank my entire hard to jog within the first 30 minutes of getting up there um but other than that it was great experience to say that i've been able to do it do i think i'll do it again probably not but i think i'll do different hikes yeah it's not that exact one no i don't see the point of doing the same hike like twice i feel yeah because like why i don't know

But that was the longest travel day of my life. Like you're telling me we went on a hike to the Hollywood sign. And then by 10 PM at night, I was in my bed back home in Austin, Texas. I wouldn't believe you. We, our flight got delayed, which kind of sucked. Only 30 minutes. Yeah. We did bring our Irwan. Um,

We went to Irwan after our hike and we brought, we bought two meals. So I bought a meal while I was there, ate it while I was there. And then I bought another one to bring with me to the airport. I think there's a little bit of confusion with the whole like airport food. I get asked all the time when I take photos of my food at airports and people are like, oh my God, you were able to bring that? Guys, you can bring like to-go food, solid food through security. They're not going to throw it away.

Like I've brought sweet greens. I've brought in Chipotle through security. You can bring whatever your heart desires as long as it's not a liquid. Don't bring soup. Don't bring drinks. But solid food you can bring through. Yeah, solid food you have no problem bringing through. My bag got taken at security and she just like gave it a little look through. I don't really know. Like she looked at the food first.

It was definitely the chocolate cake. And I was like, I had a vegan chocolate cake in there for marijuana. And I was like, when she picked up the chocolate cake, I was like, if you throw it in the trash, I was going to like shed a tear. Yeah. Spend like $10 on that slice of cake. I was like, even worse.

Airport food is not good. Like I'm telling you right now, I don't think I've ever been to an airport unless I'm like ravidly hungry and I'm like, oh my God, this is so good. But no, I've never been to an airport and eaten something and been like, this is amazing. No, I also need to like know that I have food and finding like vegan food to eat like

isn't the easiest. Also, like, you don't know what's near your, like, LAX, you'd have, like, great food. What if none of that's near a terminal? Yeah, exactly. Like, you know, you have no idea where you're going to be near. Or, like, it could be such a far walk away. I would rather just have food already. It's going to be overpriced in the airport, so I'd rather buy Air One. Or One.

than overpriced airport food. I wish there was an Irwan, Irwan, Irwan, whatever the hell you call it here in Austin, Texas, because I would literally run my bank account through that fucking place. But that was our L.A. trip. It was a lot of fun. Workouts at Zou Culture were amazing. Great pumps. Lighting was amazing. I'm really starting to figure out my new camera lens, which is nice. So the gym content is going to go crazy.

insane crazy yeah well let's get let's get into like tea because i need to take a sip of my coffee but tea my friends lots of tea what if you will let's start with the goob i love this one this one made me lol and i guarantee the poor girl poor girl i don't give a flying fuck that you got exposed but basically the two weeks ago

I got a DM from goob. If you follow him on Instagram, you definitely know what I'm, who I'm talking about. But if you don't check him out, basically what he does is he exposes, um, fitness content in terms of like, whether you're Photoshopping your photos or you are a, um, being a troll on the internet and you're being an anonymous troll, like on Reddit or something. So he does like a bunch of series with this. Like I,

he didn't do it like for me because like he knew me it was just because I happened to be a thread on treaded that he was exposing anyways I get I realized I have a notification from him and I already knew who he was because he exposed like some of our friends on um social media that have like photoshopped their photos and I was like oh great like what is this guy gonna say right now and I listened to the voice memo and he's like hey Sam just want to let you know like I'm

I'm going to be doing this video about somebody that has been talking shit about you for a year on social media, anonymously, and they actually live in your town, Austin, Texas. And I'm like, who the fuck? Who is this about? Not that I really care, but I'm like, I need to know who this is about. So he ends up showing me the girl's profile. I'm like,

It's funny because I've never seen this person in my entire life, nor have I ever maybe even had a conversation with her. But she has been trolling me for a year consistently. Imagine how miserable you must be. It was crazy because I got the I opened his voice memo and like so many like business like people trying to get you to work with them will send you a voice memo because like, I don't know, they think it's really personable. And it's always like, hey, Taylor's like, I literally listen to like, hey, Taylor, I already reached out to Sam. And I was like, this is like spam. I don't want to hear it. And she played it. I was like, oh, I got that, too.

But like, I was like, I didn't listen to it. And she kept listening to it. And I was like, I did not even listen to mine. Yeah. I didn't listen to it at fucking all. And then he took forever to answer. So the whole day, I'm like, I just want to know what it is. The whole day, both of us like, can you send it? Can you send it? And like the threads of like,

and Taylor make TikToks in the locker room and make the cleaning lady so uncomfortable. We were so nice to the cleaning lady. She loved us, dude. We were literally her bestie, so show me the receipts. Yeah, show me the receipts. What? But, like, do you think the most random...

Like, stupid stuff. Stuff I've ever seen in my entire life. If you want to go watch the full video, you can go to Goob. I follow him on Instagram. Go to my following and then go into my following, search Goob, and it will pop up. It's one of his reels that he posted. But, like, I'm sorry. If you use Reddit on a daily basis or you just go on it because you're bored and you want to engage in, like, hating someone, you're...

Like, pathetic. I am sorry. I hate to break it to you, but you need to, like, figure out, like, your life and maybe not hate so much on somebody that you don't even know. You're wasting so much time. Go read a book.

Go on a walk. Walk your dog. Do something with your life. Because I know there's people on this podcast right now that are so invested in our life. Oh, this will be a Reddit thread. Oh, this is going to be a Reddit thread. That are so invested in our life that they're going to be like, I mean, I'm fucking Sam Taylor. But they're going to listen to our podcast. So this goes out to you. Yeah. If you have an anonymous Reddit account, you...

And you use it for that purpose because honestly, there's a lot of times I find Reddit really useful when I want a person's opinion on something or like someone asks a question and people actually like sometimes use it to, I like seeing people's opinions for information. Like, has anyone tried like a product review? Yeah.

love going to reddit if you are on like any type of snark account like that's just always what they're called like yeah jim snark so and so snark any of those on an anonymous account you are literally the son of the earth like yeah i those don't bother me but they don't anymore like it's yeah i'm like oh my god it hurts me it hurts to read in the moment and then you have to remember you

That they're talking anonymously about you on the internet. I remember this one that really was making me upset. Like kind of when I first discovered that, holy shit, there's threads of hundreds of people saying horrible things about me. This one girl just going off about how like she has all these degrees and like I have this platform and like I don't.

Basically the premise of what she was saying. Yeah. And then I'm just thinking now, like, so you put in all that work, right? To get like your master's in nutrition and like you're with like a double master's in like whatever the whatever the fuck. I don't know. Like all this education. You put in all your time and hard work to get that.

And that's how you choose to spend your free time. Yeah, like, you could be posting consistently on, like, your account if you want to grow a platform. Like, that's really sad. Like, you... Like, you have all these credentials. Like, you're probably intelligent to some extent, right? Because you did that. Like, you got your degrees. I mean, they could also just be fucking lying. Yeah. Because, like...

Like, wow, like that's really how you choose to spend your time. Go get another degree. Yeah, you need more. You need more. Go be busy. Go be busy. Oh, Jesus. But yeah, no, that's been some fun things that we've been encountering lately is trolls. But another one is another in-person one, guys. I've been going fucking stir crazy with this one, okay? I have an in-person stalker. And let me tell you right now, I don't know who it is. And it's a little uncomfortable. But I'll just say this.

Every single time... Actually, I kind of do know who this person is. I was going to say, if you're going to explain it right now, you do know who it is. And I think that's fine. I don't think you're saying anything wrong by saying that you're aware of it. I'm aware of what they're doing. But guys, I have a stalker. And I'll just say this. Every time I post someone in my life on my Instagram...

This person is following that person I've tagged. So it's my close friends, like any any of my close friends in my circle, they're following. But not only are they just following them, they're then stalking them two years and years ago on their Instagram and like liking their photos and then also like swiping up on their stories and like engaging with them. And I just find that a huge violation of privacy. Like it's one thing to like go stalk my friends.

But then following them, liking their photos, DMing them, that's weird. And let's also keep in mind they go to my gym. They see me every day. They listen to this podcast. And I have now mentioned a few times on this podcast that I have been, you know, hanging out with a guy. And it has been telephoned back to him that I talk about him on the podcast.

And he said, quote unquote, my friend said that you talked about me on the podcast. And I'm like, I was starstruck. I was like, what? And then I come to find out who it was. And I'm like, wait, you're not even like friends with this person. Like they just went out of their way to like come up to you and tell you that I was talking about them on the podcast. It's just a violation of like privacy and space. I just don't. Well, I think it's just like a little bit of like an obsession.

session like I get it she lives in Austin maybe you tag one person and she's like oh I also live in Austin like this person looks cool like you know like being social when it's every single person that's like where it's bizarre if you go like if I go on my phone right now and go to her following it's my entire following of all of my friends from here that's weird right that's very weird like

Like, I'm telling you, I could totally get it if, like, one of our friends also goes to Lyft and she saw you tagging your both at Lyft. And it's like, oh, I'm going to follow him because, like, I go to this gym. Yeah, but... But, like, when it's three single... It's very odd. That is weird. And I think that's... It's not wrong to say it's weird. I think that's very weird. Like, violation of space. Privacy. I think it's also weird to never really have many...

In person interaction. I've never talked. Well, okay, that's a lie. I've recently started talking to them. And before that, I had no idea who they were. I wasn't aware. And then I started to put the puzzle pieces together of like the DMs, the follows and my friends messaging me and screenshotting and being like, do you know this person? And I'm like, okay, I've like gotten like a million messages now at this point of like, do you know this person? They just messaged me. They just followed me. They just liked a photo from like a year ago. And I'm like, okay, now this is getting weird. It's weird.

So it's weird. Like I feel there's no other word for it. And, you know, I feel uncomfortable kind of talking about it right on the right now on the podcast because I don't know if like they're listening to it. But yeah, I'll keep you guys updated on how things go. It's very interesting. Just weird to feel like you're being watched 24 seven silently in the gym. Yeah. Like it's so weird. And not just that someone's like viewing your Instagram stories, but that they're always there.

And the thing is, you guys could probably say to me right now, well, you can block her. Yeah, I could block her, but I can't on the podcast. But then that's weird. But no, not even on the podcast. Like, I can't block, you can't block anyone on the podcast. That's true. So it's like, what's the point? Like, I go through all that effort just to block them, but they can still, like, engage. I don't know. That's big. It's a sticky situation. It makes me uncomfortable. And all I'll say about the mans is that we're going on a date this week. Ah! Ah!

Mom, I'm going on a date. My mom's probably throwing fists at me. She's like, let's go. Yeah, score. Oh, yeah. That's just how life has been. No updates more than that. It's moving slow. We have to be really careful. It's moving slow, but it's going...

It's going great. Yeah, it's so weird knowing that anyone can just listen to this, but I guess it gives me a sense of like... I think it's given me a sense of confidence and to be like anything I think I would say to someone's face. Yeah, but the thing is... Because most things I think I say it on the mic anyway, so... I know, but last time I talked about a guy on the podcast, I scared him away and he never came to hang out with me. Then he's a bitch. Yeah. Remember the Nashville guy, guys, when I was talking about him on the podcast? And then he texted me and goes, I just listened to the podcast. Okay, well then... Two days later, he's like, I'm actually not coming to Austin anymore. He's a bitch because...

Like, this is what you do for a living, one. It's not like you're saying anything bad about him. It's like you're outing him to the whole entire world. Yeah. Like... It's fine. No one knew who he was. He was the only one that knew who he was. Because I didn't say his name. Yeah, and that story, like, it was exaggerated. It was so exaggerated. Like, it's exaggerated, like... Not to say we lie on the podcast, but obviously, like...

especially like a boy thing like it wasn't that serious like we're talking about one conversation we maybe had about a boy one time that was funny and they think that's like all we talked about for like a month and it's like no no my guy we're talking about like one single scenario that like went by in passing it wasn't it wasn't that that serious so yeah i mean i i don't know i don't really care what i say on here like if anyone was like i heard you say this about me on the podcast i'd be like yeah i posted it

Like, what do you think is a shock to me that it was said on the podcast? I edit and upload it. I know I said it. Like, if I didn't want you to hear it, I would cut it out. Now, speaking of like boyfriends and stuff and like funny things, can we please talk about what you said to me like the other day? And we were dying laughing about the I hope my boyfriend doesn't see this.

Oh. Like, I, like, posted these TikToks and I just looked so fucking good in them. Like, I looked literally... She was like, this is gonna blow up. No, I looked literally outstanding. Like, some of them... Like, my ass looked so good. Like, my... I looked great. Like, my body, 12 out of 10. Like, and I'm not saying I feel like that in every video, but it felt like it in those, okay? They were great. And then they, like...

don't get views, likes, or comments. And I know... Literally no comments. Like, not a single comment on the video. And it's like... And it's like... This, like, doesn't add up because...

It looks so good. And then I was like, well, maybe. Like, the consensus was, why would anyone want to boost that on the algorithm? Because your man might see it. Yeah. Like, no girls wanted to comment and be like, Taylor, you look so fucking good right now. Because they didn't want their boyfriend to see it. It's going to pop up on your man's feed because you're sitting next to each other in the car and your phone knows where you're at at all times. So if you like the post sitting next to him, his phone's going to be like...

you also want to see that stop gatekeeping taylor like it's annoying comment on her post because it just doesn't add up at all and i know you guys just don't want me to be on your man's page but you need to have a little bit more security in your relationship no but then so she said that she goes she was like it's just because they don't want their boyfriend seeing me like on their pages so then like a day goes by and i'm posting an instagram no it was in the starbucks

Oh, it was at the Starbucks. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. It was right there. Yeah. And I... You can say it because it was you that did it. Oh, well, I was, like, jokingly because we, like, just had this conversation and, like, it was literally, like, her flexing in the mirror. Like, a video we had just talked about. Like, oh, I look so good. And I was going to comment, like, oh, my man doesn't see this. Like, to get, like, just, like, the joke, like, our inside joke, like, oh, my man doesn't see this. Then I realized that that'd be super weird because you all know who my boyfriend is and my friend would have saw the comment and been like, what? What?

David would have been scrolling and Simon would have been like, Taylor, what the fuck? Or all of you, if I was like, oh, my boyfriend doesn't see this, like, all of you would have been like, wait, what's going on here behind the scenes? What's going on with Sam and Taylor? And it just would have been hilarious if I didn't process it because mine was just like, ha ha.

aha that's a funny joke just the joke that we were just saying then i was like wait i do have a man and like they all like it's not just like something that would have made more sense if like i commented it on your post because i don't have a man yes so then like the joke would have made sense but like yeah but anyways that's literally why i'm shadow banned because i just looked i look too fucking good for example this instagram post i posted today folding or doing good

I mean, like, all Instagram posts fold. But it should have stopped the fold. Hide your man. It's literally... It has a lot of comments because, like, I put the caption for people to comment and the comments are really funny. But there's no reason it shouldn't have 20,000 likes right now. And I know it's because y'all are scared. That's why. Like, we're not going to blame the algorithm in any way for, like, Instagram or TikTok anymore. We're blaming it because you guys are gatekeeping. Jealousy. I'm kidding. I'm kidding.

I'm dead. We're dead ass kidding. So I hope you guys don't take it serious. Jealousy. But you do take me seriously. Like my like my goddamn photos. Because you know what? If every single person that listened to this liked my Instagram photos. Oh, my God. That would be crazy. That would be just not possible. That would be.

Just... I wouldn't know what to do with myself. So if you're listening to this right now, you, Sarah, Brittany... Such a call-out. I love saying a random name. You're probably listening to... No, I love it because then when we post a podcast post, someone's like me being Sarah. Yeah, so you, Sarah, and Brittany, like my Instagram post literally right now because so many of you listen to this podcast and you don't like my Instagram post. They're going to comment and be like, it's me, Sarah. Stop being jealous of me. Anyways...

That's the Instagram struggle. And I just got to word it like that. So that way I feel better about myself. Can I be gross for a minute? Yeah. Because I told Taylor this like 20 minutes ago before the podcast. But I don't know what this is, but I haven't gone like a bikini wax or bikini wax Brazilian in a few months now. Like I've been just shaving and waxing it on occasion if like it's grown in. Like waxing myself. Like waxing myself. But I only do the bikini line.

But anyway, I was in the shower the other day and I'm like, I've noticed like this bump like on like the top, like not the top, like kind of like in the crevice area of like my thigh and like, you know, my hip crease. Yeah, my hip crease, my hip flexors. And I was like, okay, this is weird. Like it's...

It's really... Not, like, big, but it's, like, red and, like, a little bit irritable. You were, like, do I have chlamydia? Yeah, I'm, like, okay, should I, like, go to the doctor's and get checked? Anyway, but no, I literally have not had sex in so long, so... Sam gets no play. I get no fun. That's, like, my, like...

That's my favorite thing to say. So fucking horrible. Anyways, especially now that I'm out of birth control, it's even worse. But, um, so I was like, okay, you know what? We'll do a deep dive. We'll go down there. So I take a shower, you know, open up the pores, nice hot shower, take some tweezers down there. And guys, I pulled out the longest ingrown hair I've ever seen in my entire life on my entire body. Like it was literally like two inches long and it just kept coming. And I was, it was weird. Cause like ingrown hairs, like, I

I've never really experienced that. And then I pulled it out and it came out so easy. It was the weirdest thing. And the thing is you couldn't see it until I pulled it out and it just kept coming. I wish I saw it. No, oh my god. You would have been disgusted. That's gross. I didn't even want to see it. But it was like a pleasure. I was like, ooh, this is nice. I love popping things and pulling things off my body. It's so satisfying. But that was gross. So I don't know if it's like waxing causes like...

severe and grown hairs because I haven't waxed in a while and I don't know if that's like why I had like the worst maybe it's because you went from waxing to shaving no but it was so long to the point where like that thing has been growing that thing has been in there for a while I'm dead so like it was gross and

So, I don't know. Let me know if you guys think I should get laser hair removal because I might start doing that because, I don't know, the ingrowns right now are not my best friend. The title of this episode is going to be like, Stop Being Jealous of Us and then like Sam's Vagina Hair. Sam's Vagina Hair, yeah. That's going to be like... No, but deadass. Like, it was disgusting and I think I need to start doing laser. I want to start doing laser really bad, but that's a... There's so many new things, so many I want to do this, I want to do that, that I need to like...

Yeah, but all you have to do is just book an appointment and show up. Listen. There's also... You have to do a lot of things. Yeah, okay. But anyway, I may start doing that soon, so I'll let you guys know. I'll keep you updated on that. Any companies that do laser hair removal in Austin, feel free to...

Hit the DMs? I don't even know where I would need to go. I like having referrals. Like, I like knowing someone's went somewhere and had a good experience with it. Like, I don't like showing up somewhere not knowing that someone's had a good experience. I have the hiccups. Yeah, well, there's that girl, like, on TikTok. I think it was only, like, one person. I don't think it was, like, multiple people.

I don't know if you ever saw it, that she got, like, burned by the laser. So she has all these, like, circles. No, never seen. That, like, her whole leg is, like, scarred of these burns. I haven't not seen that, and I don't want to see it. Well, I already told you about it. Oh, yeah. Speaking of, you know, lady parts, birth control, updates. Do we got any updates? I have, like, TMI updates. Yeah, hit me with it. Okay. Okay.

So the day of our hike, you know, like there's changes in like my like discharge. Oh, great. Yep. Let me hear it. And I've been doing a lot of Googling, you know, for like educating myself on what the fuck is going on. So I'm like Googling it. The worst place you could possibly go. No, but I think I was just I think I might be like.

Like, I think it's like an ovulation. Yeah. I might be ovulating. Oh, yeah. I'm probably ovulating. I want to get ovulation tests because they're like pregnancy tests. Like, you use them like a pregnancy test. And I saw this girl on TikTok being like, I take an ovulation test, like, to see if you are. Mm-hmm. Well, that's not a bad idea. Yeah. And she just takes them. So let's say you're going to be like...

having sex, you could be like, am I ovulating right now? Because that's like your most likely time to get pregnant. And you can take a test. Like you take it the same way you take a pregnancy test. Yeah. Interesting. And you can buy like a pack of them. Yeah. I mean, here's the thing. I'm also confused because someone, some people are like, you won't notice any differences in anything to like six months, which you said someone told you. Yeah. But then I also get comments being like the first two to three months were the worst.

So it's like, I feel like everyone's different and when they feel the effects, because I get some people being like, it's too soon to feel effects or like, no, like the first month for me was hell. And like, it was different. The other day I was ill.

Okay? See, I haven't experienced any of that yet. I had, like, a headache. Like, my stomach is down bad. Like, it was random. I mean, it could have been from so many things, right? Like, maybe just, like, travel. Like, LA is gross. Like, you know, could have been from many things. But I don't, like, feel like that often. So...

I think it's just interesting to see because I literally get comments being like, it's too early to feel this. But then people also tell me that the beginning was like the worst part for them and that they were fine after. Like some people are like, I was fine after two, three months. And then some people didn't even start feeling bad until six months.

Yeah, I mean, knock on wood, I have not experienced anything too bad. I've honestly just had, like, withdrawal bleeds, and that's been it. I've never had, I haven't had that yet. Yeah. But, like, they're literally, like, like, I'm going pee. Right. And, like, that's what it is. Like, it's nothing where I'm, like, okay, I have to put a tampon in right now. But I'm just curious to see maybe month two will be a little bit different, because then I'll, like, actually have, like, maybe, like, experience, like,

my like first period like i don't even know like maybe i won't get a period like i have no fucking clue but that's what's weird too is like when am i gonna get like it's definitely just like interesting yeah um keep and i've been so stressed about like the whole like sex part like i'm so stressed about that like i don't know it definitely is i want to get serious fexy

is like this stuff that I totally forgot about it. And then I actually, one of you so kind in my DM, she was like, hey, like I'm actually in med school. Like I just did like my OBGYN like rotation. Like if you need like any advice or anything or like talk about anything and like gave me like just some advice. And I was like, no, actually I forgot what I asked her, but like she was so sweet. And she was just like, if you need anything, like let me know. Cause she's like literally in like medical school for that. So it was just very nice of her. And I totally forgot until she said it.

because it just like went out of my mind. There's this thing called Fexi and it goes in like a tampon. Like that's how you put it in. And it's like a gel that's a spermicide. Like it kills sperm. Interesting. So you can use it like one time. Like you can put it in up to like an hour before and you use it one time. You can only have sex like one time for it to be like usable. And then it's just like... How can people trust these things though? Well...

Like, I don't, like, I would still be paranoid. You do that and you, like, also, like, double out. Yeah. Like, I wouldn't, I don't think, but, and no, it's supposed to be, like, I think, like, something like that, like, with, like, to me, hear me out. Tracking my cycle, using that, and pull out. Yeah. That's, like, three things. Yeah. Also, have you, well, no, you have, because we've talked about this. That girl on Instagram with the silicone vagina. Yeah.

Bro. She freaks me out. No, no, no. One of her videos came up on my For You page yesterday and it was a female condom. Yeah. So you shove it into your vagina and it's like a legit condom. Yeah. That is the trippy. She's like, you can put it in in the morning if you know at night you're going to be having sex. Oh.

I was like, imagine walking around with a plastic fucking condom in your vagina. No. No, thank you. No can do. See, my ideal situation is for there to be a boy pill because I've done my time. Oh my God. That would be amazing. I've done my time. I've, you know, I've done my part. Switch. Yeah. But I don't have to worry about that right now. So I'm just vibing, but I will do like,

Yeah, I think tracking your cycle, using that fexy stuff, and, like, pull-out method, that's literally three methods stacked on fucking top of each other. I just keep getting, like, in my head. And, like, not that, like... Well, you literally don't get play, so I don't know. That's another thing, is, like, I don't get play, but I'm still so in my head. No, now you, like, kind of have manse. Not even, guys. You guys are gonna think... They're gonna listen to this and be like, oh, my God. Oh, it's not serious at all. Like, we've never even kissed. Yeah. Yeah.

No, I told you guys. I don't have a man's. Like, I literally don't have a man's. But in my head, I'm like, I do have a man. No, but it's like... That's so bad. I'm calling myself out so hard right now. It was embarrassing for you. But like, you've gone on dates, which is actually better. Like, he might...

What's more... Oh, I've made it clear, too, that I'm not on birth control. What's more important to someone being kissed, like, once or twice or actually, like, going on dates? Yeah, that's facts. Like, what is more, like, arguably the dates? Unless he thinks that you're besties. I know, we're just besties. Fuck. Then that'll suck. The thing is... You're like, I'm not on birth control. He's like, why are you telling me? You're like, oh...

No, like, Jenna asked, though. Like, that was the conversation. No, I'm kidding. No, we were talking about, like, steroid use and, like, in, like, the female fitness industry. Birth control is steroids. And he was like, yeah, he was like, he was like, would you ever, like, hop on anything? And I was like, hell no. Like, I would never hop on anything. Like, I don't even fucking like taking birth control. I don't want anything in my body. And, like, I made it very clear. I was like, I don't take birth control anymore. I stopped using that, like, two weeks ago. If you think you're fucking, you're not. Yeah, if you think you'll get in play, you ain't. That's why he hasn't kissed you.

He thinks he can get it mouth to mouth. You told him that day one and he was like... So funny. That's not what the birth control thing for me...

um i just feel good knowing that i'm not taking it anymore because there's so many things like i'll see people being like haha that time i got a blood clot from birth control or like this and like knowing that i mean i don't know how long maybe you have to be off like those wrists to go away like does it go away immediately i don't know i'm not a doctor but like knowing that i'm not taking something every day that's like going inhibiting that to happen to me makes me feel good and then another thing too is like

I want to be able to like, so I was talking with my last check about this. She was like, I, she was like the best thing she's gone on and off twice within the last five years. And she was like, one of like the best things that she's noticed is like, she can genuinely like connect with her body and like feel when she's like ovulating. I'm like, I want to feel that. I don't know if I do.

No, I guess I do. No, I want to feel that. No, I kind of, I follow a lot of people that are, not a lot of people, that is so, I follow this one girl, but it leads me to maybe seeing other people talk about it. Right. But I follow like one girl. Like I just want to know what it like feels like. She's very in tune with her cycle and does like all the cycle tracking things. Self plug, we did an episode with a hormonal nutritionist and we talk about this, but this girl, her name is Carolina...

I think her app is like Carolina's Lifestyle. She has a podcast. It's called like Luna, whatever. You guys can look it up if you want. But she does a lot of like in tune with your cycle stuff. Maybe we can have her on. Yeah, that'd be cool. She like is very into it. Let's do it. I'll DM her. You DM her. You DM her. You know her more. I'll DM her. But she's very into it. And I see her stuff and I'm like, wow, you look at peace. You know what I mean? I'm like, you look like you're thriving.

Yeah, but yeah. But I think it would also help. And like, you know, when we're like, fuck, like I wanted that weight today, but like, fuck, why is it so heavy? If I could just be like all my body. Yeah. Like, I mean, you know what I mean? Like, and just so you're not like, why am I stressed? Like just having answers, I think is calming to be like, fuck, I'm so tired today. Rather than instead I could be like, I know this week is going to be low energy. Yeah. Yeah.

I would just, I would rather be able to, to know, but yeah, I'm, I'm just trying to be health queen. Yeah, me too. And with the queenie with that.

That's like kind of it. Oh, wait, guys, my car. We got to talk about that. Yeah. I have other stuff to stay too and I keep forgetting it, but I'm going to try to think of it when you talk. Yeah. You got to write notes. Guys, one thing that I do and I'm very good at now is catch ups. Like I do not want to miss a fucking thing. Oh, I remember what I'm going to talk about. I will think about something like, oh, like I want to talk about that, but then I get to the podcast and I don't talk about it because I forgot to talk about it. So...

So during the week, I will like jaw some notes down. So that way I remember that I want to talk about it with you guys. I didn't write down the car thing because I didn't think it was that big of a deal, but I kind of want to talk about it. My car died on me. I think it's still the battery. My battery was dead. We came back from LA. It was completely dead. So within an hour ago, I actually had someone tow my car over to a Jeep dealership to go into the service department. And hopefully I'll have a car by the end of the week. I had to put the doors and the roof back on, which is so upsetting because

But I would rather just my car be in one piece while it's getting serviced and then I can take it off if I need to. It's not hard at all to put the doors back on and off. I just get a little bit sweaty because the garage is like 90 degrees. I literally broke a sweat yesterday bringing something to the trash. Yeah. I literally walked to the garage, brought something to the trash, opened a box in the garage and was sweating. Yeah. And I was like, that's...

Yeah. What was it that you had? So I posted a TikTok. I just pulled up something on Google. That's what I was doing on my phone. But I posted a TikTok how I think I've come to terms with the lifestyle that I want to live is a damp lifestyle. If you don't know what that means, I pulled up the Google definition. Give me the details.

A damp lifestyle involves drinking in moderation, drinking to savor a drink, or drinking a little on special occasions. It's basically the avoidance of binge drinking, which is what many of us spent our lives doing. The reason it's called that is because dry, like dry January, means you're not drinking any alcohol. So damp is like almost dry.

You feel? Because you don't want to, like, restrict. Because then you'll feel bad. Because here's the thing. I don't find the need to be sober because guess what? Like, the pretty Marg, I want it. I just realized, like, the amount of, like, it's kind of just like the bar type drinking. Like, ordering drinks just to order drinks. Yeah.

I just don't like right now at the moment for like, it just like hasn't been making me feel good. Like, um, a little like glass of wine and a nice dinner. Like I drink for the first time in like three weeks. Like, I don't know the next time I'll drink. And I'm just trying to be like more like in tune with that. And actually, cause like the amount of times I say I don't want to drink and then I end up getting very drunk if I didn't want to.

like why did I yeah you know what I mean so right now and I'm not like against alcohol by any means like I'm not saying you need to not drink or I don't think I'm better than you because I'm choosing not to drink it's just if anything like I mean I don't know I wish I didn't have like my mental health to focus on like you know what I mean like but but like like um so it's nothing like that at all like I don't

Literally give a fuck if anyone else chooses to still drink like that. I don't think it's bad. It's just right now, I feel really good not doing that. So I guess that's the...

lifestyle that I'm calling it another I'm just like shouting out people on TikTok that I'm mutuals with that are doing things similar to what I'm doing Caitlin Nolan I was just about to say her her fucking TikTok came up on my page the other day Caitlin Nolan who we've had on the pod go listen I'm full of plugs for our pod and for others she was on our podcast you can go listen to it but Caitlin posted how she's one year sober I had no idea and what I like about the fact that I had no idea it's like

I don't think drinking needs to be your personality in, like, any aspect. I know for some people... I also don't think not drinking has to be your personality. That's what I'm saying. Drinking in general should not be anyone's personality. That's what I'm saying. Drinking, whether you're not or you are, does need to be your personality. Obviously, some people, their content and stuff is around, like, encouraging people to be sober for, like, literally, like...

like addiction and like stuff like that which is not what i'm talking about like i'm not talking about talking about sobriety for that reason because that's a whole other like completely different issue i'm talking about just like you feel like you don't want to which like so i'm just like making that clear because i don't know what i'm talking about in terms of like the other stuff yeah it's like just kind of that personal like i don't really want to so i had no idea

at all i mean i think i see a lot of her content i had no idea at all i'd love i'd love to have her on to talk about it i'd love to chit chat but um and yeah it's just like coming to terms with it and one thing i literally hate um and i know we've talked about this before is like prying someone on why they're not drinking oh i hate it unless like you're

Like there's some people who in times like when they were my close friends, like there was a while when like you didn't want to drink because like your anxiety. And it's like to me, I get being like

I want you to be able to overcome that anxiety and not let it control you. Yeah. Right. Like, like drink, have fun because you're letting the anxiety like win in a sense. Yeah. By, by not going by staying home, by leaving, like have fun. And I know like, that's a thing people wanted to encourage, but like when someone's like, why aren't you drinking? I'm like, I just don't want to. And they just like, you just ask so much or like, or like, yeah, like that's what you say now. And I'm like, then,

And that's what I say later. I don't want to. Like, why does it matter to you? I'm not asking you. Why are you drinking? Yeah, it definitely is a touchy subject. I feel like across the board, like even that random ass podcast that we were talking about in the car the other day, like when they were talking about the... I don't even know whose podcast it was, but when they were talking about like the...

If you don't drink, you're lame, whatever, which like, Oh yeah. Which I don't even know what the name of the podcast is. I don't know. Sorry. If you looked it up on Tik TOK, um, you'd probably find it.

But I totally agree. Like, I think that drinking, not drinking, whatever you choose to do, it should not be, like, a subject matter. Because it's like... Yeah, it just doesn't matter. I mean, I do think overall, like, blackout culture is so, like, normal. Like, I think it's weird that it's way more normal to be like, I blacked out three times this week than it is to be like, I haven't drank in a month. Yeah. Yeah.

I that's bizarre to me. Like if someone was like, I blacked out every night this weekend, someone is like, doesn't bat an eye. But if you're like, no, I didn't drink this weekend. Someone's like, why? Yeah, that is true. And I think that's interesting. You know, what's funny too is like when I lived back at home, like if anyone has like a friend group that they're kind of struggling with this with and like they're trying to find like just find themselves because like when I was back home and I was drinking three to four to sometimes five times a week,

I was, like, struggling to find myself with what I really genuinely liked, whether it was, like, going out, drinking, whatever. And I actually had to have a sit-down conversation with my, like, friends at home and tell them that, like, hey, like, this is not something I enjoy. This is not something I like to do. Stop asking me why I'm not drinking when I'm out in a social setting with you guys because it just makes me not want to go. Right. And, like, those conversations – when I had that conversation with my friends from home –

Like, click of the fingers and they stopped asking me. So if that's something you need to do with your friends, fucking do it because it changes the game. You can go out and not feel uncomfortable. If someone doesn't respect your relationship with alcohol like that, or honestly anything, like if you sit down and have a conversation with your friends, like stop doing this because it makes me uncomfortable. Yeah. And they don't. That is such a red flag.

Yeah. No, I agree. So if you have to have that conversation, please do it because it will change the game. Obviously, I haven't really had that issue with our friends here. Like they kind of respect it. They understand like it's our work as well. So that's like another definitely a little bit older, too. Like I know if you're like in college where like someone like my age, 21 is the oldest. Yeah. And they're like, I know that's.

definitely like different i mean our friends are crazy they are fucking crazy i'll call it i'll call you out y'all are y'all are being able to function i cannot function love you besties you're insane um yeah i just i just can't i can't hang like and just right now like yeah so that's just where i'm at with that i'm posting about it on tiktok um just to

I just think it helps some people sometimes with like the FOMO. I asked, I was like, do you guys want to hear about this? Because like I said, I didn't want to just like bombard people if they didn't care. And they'd be like, stop. Like, we don't give a fuck. But so many people were like, yes, like I'm also trying to do this. Someone said no on your post. Someone did say no. I was like, I wanted to respond to like the fucking Twitter. Someone responded, someone responded, please no. And I was like,

that's when they get the block i was like well no they might need to block me you know how you block someone so their stuff doesn't come up yeah but vice versa if you whoever i know but it's like if you like my other content and you just don't want me to post about that but whatever i have remembered my other thing i want to talk about as well um this might be a sensitive topic for some of you and i'm very sorry and i'm not trying to be rude or disrespectful but i posted this tiktok and the audio is like the one that goes like

Oh, great. I know where we're going with this one. And it was basically me being like, when you tell someone you're depressed and they're like, think happy. And you're like, what, bitch? That was the point of the TikTok. It was funny. A lot of people in the comments were doing the same thing the TikTok said. They were like, no, it doesn't work. Be happy. And I was like,

Did you not get the point of the video I just made? And then I'm in a little bit of TikTok, like a small sector of TikTok beef. The videos don't have that many views, but they have a lot of comments. And it got into a lot of like, you need to find God to be happy. And it's a very interesting place on my TikTok right now. Yeah. But moral of the story, someone commented that was like, you need to find God and was like, there's some shit wrong with you. Like, go on meds. Like, you're crazy. Yeah. And I was like, what?

it was that is one of the most out of line things someone has ever said to me she was like something's wrong with you go on meds i am on meds so jokes on you like i know there's like gonna be like people listening to this right now that probably agree with the comments that are going down but like i'm sorry that's for your personal brain yeah yeah that's for your own personal like whatever you believe in you believe in so be it but like

For people like us that, like, don't necessarily believe in that stuff, like, I believe in, like, manifesting something that's going to happen, but not hoping that something's going to fix something, if that makes sense. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. I'm like, oh, like, I really hope that, like, I don't, like, I really pray that he's going to be there tonight. Like, just, like, little, like, manifest stuff like that. Like, not, oh, this happened because...

You're so religious. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? But it's... What I just found interesting is the way so many people are just like... I don't know the word. Like, don't understand mental health. And there's a difference between having a down, depressed day and being clinically depressed. Like, if you had a broken bone and I was like, just pray tonight that it's healed. Like, no. Like...

We're going to be stepping on a lot of fucking toes right now, so be careful. But I'm just... Look, open for conversation. I mean, it's open conversation on my TikTok page. You can join the comments. The comments aren't actually that heated. People are just sharing their thoughts. Keep it that way. Everyone's discussing. Some people are heated. Like the girl that told me that I'm... What'd she say? That something's wrong with me and I need some beyond medication? That girl was heated and rude. But I think people diminish. And I'm not just talking about...

I'm, this is totally stepping away from the religion thing. Okay. Because people were saying this with no mention to religion. Like this is totally stepping away from the religion thing. A lot of people are thinking like, just think happy. Like I got so many comments like that. Like nobody worked for me. Try it. And I'm like, like,

You're like missing the mark with that like mental illness is illness. I don't think they've like ever experienced it before. That's what it is and it's so hard to explain to people because so many people literally on the TikTok of me being like it's frustrating when you say you're depressed and someone's like be journal. Like listen to a happy podcast. Like bitch I do. And it's like some people will just assume like that you're not doing things to like to like

You know, like, do better for yourself. Like, you're trying... Like, I do all the things, okay? I do literally all the things. When I went to therapy, the reason I got prescribed medication is because the first things you kind of do is, like, are you making your bed? Are you, like, eating regularly? Are you...

even something similar like showering like are you reading are you showering you smell like shit are you like are you reading like i was like yeah like are you exercising i was like yes yes yes yes yes like i do it like if it's like a thing that's supposed to be good for you like i do it and she was like yeah you really like do like she was like you do all the things that like you're supposed to do i was like i know like i do them all i wake up i put on the like you know how to tell me twice like i do it

and so it's just frustrating getting those comments on my tiktok of people being like just be happy like let me just flip that switch where is it i was like no i didn't think of that oh fuck you're right i didn't think of that just be happy yeah don't don't be depressed just be happy or like when you're anxious and people are like don't calm down oh that makes it worse so much worse it's like oh could it just calm down yeah no so

it's like the same thing like if i was like oh my god no like my leg like it's broken and i was like just think it's not broken it's really tough out there guys just think that it's healed just walk like it's like the same it's like what it's not excuse me so i just think that's an interesting debate having you in my tiktok um feel free to boost me on the algo and comment

Your thoughts. Like I said, it's honestly not even that bad. The videos don't have that many views. People are being relatively nice. Because people are coming from a place of love and I get that. A lot of people are trying to be nice. I get that. You guys are trying to help. I get it. People are saying to think happy. But it's not helping. But it's not helping. We get you're trying to help but it's honestly doing more damage than...

just like yeah just keep it yourself yeah keep it to yourself keep it to yourself oh my god my knee just cracked so bad did you hear that keep it to yourself um so that's all that's been happening in my life um yeah i'm sorry like i mean i don't i don't think i said anything wrong but if i did i'm really sorry and i respect you and your religion and everything that you think i just think the comment section on my page right now is funny so you should go read it yeah thanks

Anyways, I had to pee really bad, so... I had to pee in the middle of the episode and it went away. Thank God, but I almost had to pause. Yeah. But that's about it, guys. I really hope you guys are happy that we did a nice long catch-up with you guys. It's been a while.
