Shownotes Transcript

Hi pussies, welcome back to Therapus. Today we have a very, very special episode. It is Peyton's pregame. If you know Peyton, you know she loves to go out. So I thought I couldn't do a solo episode with her without us pregaming to go out, which is what we love to do together the most.

So that is what today is. As far as a few life updates, today is Monday. I'm recording this on a Monday. So it is four days. I have not smoked weed in four days because I was like so, like I was getting really paranoid and anxious. And I actually am still finding myself paranoid and anxious, but so much more subdued, like crazy, crazy. But it's hard. I definitely miss smoking. It's super enjoyable, but

Everyone needs a break now and then. So I'm four days without it.

I'm about to leave for New York a few times, actually, which I'm really, really excited about. And then we have a very, very special episode for you guys next week, which I'm also really excited about. But today, it's one of my favorites because it's with one of my best friends, Peyton. She's the best. She makes me laugh like no other. And I hope you guys enjoy this episode as much as we enjoyed Peyton's.

filming the episode. As always, submit tell me what's wrong to pass that post.com. Leave a name and number if you're feeling fancy. And yeah, enjoy the episode, pussies. Hi, pussies. Welcome back to Therapus. Today is none other than Peyton's pregame. Hi, Pey. I'm so happy you're here. Wait, I'm so happy we're back. Are you excited to pregame? Of course. Because tell them why we're doing Peyton's pregame. Well, because it's Friday and I love to drink. And you love to go out.

Well, that's a given. Okay. So what we're going to do for this episode is we're going to set every, should we do every 15 minutes? Yeah. Okay. Should I do it? Yeah. Set timer for every 15 minutes. We'll take a shot. How? Stopwatch? No, no, no. Give me, give me. Set timer for every 15 minutes for the next two hours. Set timer for every 15 minutes for the next two hours. It's working? Yeah. Turn it all the way up. Okay. Let's start right now.

Shot number one. Oh, my God. We're doing it first. We have to. We have to commence the episode. Wait, you guys. We're going to dinner tonight, and then we're going to... Well, should I tell them about Doheny Room, or is it too early? No, tell them. Okay, so there was this place in LA, Doheny Room. It was our personality trait. It was like my first foray into clubbing. It was our personality trait for, I'd say, months.

I'd go as far to say a year. A year. A year. Our entire. Oh. Oh. Okay. Well, you know what? I'll take half of it. No, it's your pregame. Wait, Jake. I'll be on the floor. Okay. Cheers. That was horrible. Okay. I took half of mine because, oh my God, I poured myself so much, but it honestly went down like water. Really? I'm really. Me and Peyton are having a Peyton and Jake weekend.

Which is really scary. I will say, whenever anyone has a one-on-one night with me, it gets dark. It gets dark. And, like, I've accepted that. Like, I'm always, like, tell them how annoying I am to go out with. Well, Jake just, like, doesn't want to get motivated. And I live constantly motivated. But, like, tell them, like, you know how I'll tell you I'm going out and then I'll take it back? Oh, yeah. So, it'll be, like, Friday, Saturday.

maybe 12 o'clock and Jake is like okay I'm so excited let's go out when I've already mentally prepared myself for the fact that no one will want to go out so I'm like it's fine I'm gonna stay in with my girls again so then Jake will be like wait there's the best plan we're going out and I'm like oh my god we're going out

I'm already thinking about my outfit. I'm getting ready. I'm mentally preparing myself. I'm making all the plans. And then I'll FaceTime Jake at like maybe six. He's like,

I'm not going anymore. And the reason this is substantial is because we have four friends. Well, yeah. So... Also, there's no one else I'd want to go out with. If I'm not with my girls, then like... Oh, that's so sweet, Peyton. I also feel the same way. I never understood people that can just go out with anyone. No, not me. Not us. Not us. It's really vulnerable. We ride in a pack. We ride in a pack and it's really... Like, I would say going out is really vulnerable. Well, yeah. Like...

And being hungover is very communal. It's very communal. We made this place our personality trait. If you're from LA, you know Doheny Room and it's for 16 year olds. It is a very, if we were to go now, I'd be like, oh, I'm embarrassed, but we're going tonight. But we're going tonight because they remodeled it, you guys. What? Yes, man. That's the whole point. It's like a new club. That's why I'm thinking it's like not for the youngins anymore. You heard it here first. 2020 for the rebranded club.

Like, it's gonna be, it says on the partiful, join us for the newly remodeled Doheny room. Jake, I think it's a joke because the theme of the party is Yuma tent. I think they're, like, decorating. No, I think it's remodeled. It was closed for, like, the past four years. What? We would have heard about it. We would have, is it just? I just don't think we didn't, I just don't think we wanted to go. Really? Right? I swear it's remodeled.

Well, I guess time will tell. We'll keep you guys posted if it's three miles. That explains why everyone was like so weirded out when I was so excited. No. Well, did I tell you that we also have a house party in the mix? Well, duh, I did the partiful. Did you? I couldn't do a plus one. Tonight. Tonight. It's like dancing people. It's a housewarming. Who sent that? In our chat. What's the one you're talking about? I just was sleeping. The worst feeling in the world. Tell me if there's a worse feeling than realizing you forgot to RSVP.

There are worse feelings. Like what? I feel like that's not that serious. It's like you didn't RSVP. Like we're going together. Okay. Yeah. True. So yeah, there are worse feelings. But Doheny Room, it was our favorite place on the entire planet. We went every single Thursday and Saturday. The last time I went to Doheny Room-

What? Honestly, I was not going to tell this story. When? You'll know it in like 0.5 seconds. But like I wasn't going to tell this story because my parents listen to this. But then I'm like, whatever. They actually know this because it was so serious and they threatened to send me to rehab. I remember this. Do you remember? I woke up. I don't remember anything. I woke up with a gash in my head and no phone. And that was the last time I ever went to the Ohini room. Wait, I even asked you what you're a therapist about.

Today? Yeah. Oh, let me think. Ugh, I'm having a good day. Not to be positive, Pauly. Wait, knock on wood. Do you knock three times? Did you knock three times? Yes! Not to be so positive, but like I'm having such a good day and I feel like our day's just gonna keep getting better. Do you knock three times? Can I be pissed about my week? Did you knock three times? Yes. Yeah, you can be pissed about your week. Oh my god! I can't even say I'm pissed about that either. What? You guys, I got home from New York on Sunday night and

At like literally three in the morning. I had to do work the whole plane. I went to bed at three in the morning. That was a whole to do in general because the guy next to you. Oh my God. That was bad too. So I had a horrible seatmate. He was foul. He was foul. You guys, I'm on this plane and the man next to me gives me a nice little tap. I'm like, and he goes, just want to let you know, I'm going to be working the whole flight. Like, are you going to have to get up?

And like, he was asking to switch from his middle seat to her aisle seat because he had to work. And I said, actually, yeah, like she has to work too. I have to work the entire flight, which I actually did. I'm sitting next to this guy and he's like, are you going to have to get up? Because I have to work. And I was like, oh, I actually also have to work the entire flight, unfortunately. So no, no. Right. And then he was like, okay, fine.

That's fine. I was like, okay, cool. No one ended up sitting in our middle seat, so he moved to the other aisle. It was a big New York to LA plane. And then, literally the second the seatbelt sign turns off, I'm up. I get my Dell. I'm on my PC. I am working, working, working away. He's asleep. The entire flight, doesn't move, doesn't get up, doesn't go to the bathroom, doesn't do anything. He's unconscious.

It's just like imagine if you did switch. He lied. He lied. Imagine if we did switch and I'm working in the middle seat. What would you have done? Jail. Get up. I'd wake him and be so angry. Wait, so what were you annoyed about? What were you pissed about? Well, that. That was one. But what's the other thing? Oh, just I got no sleep and I was texting Jake and he sent me...

He sent me a really funny text. I was so tired. I was like, okay, tonight I'm going to go to bed at like 6 p.m. I really need to catch up on my sleep. And Jake sends me a screenshot of a plan he made and goes, ha ha, you're trapped, wink face. And she trapped she was. Oh my God, long therapist. I'm so sorry. Started off so positive. That wasn't long at all. Okay, well, what are you pissed about? What am I pissed about? Not today, obviously, because we're having such a good day. Nolan, where did you get your shirt from?

I thrifted it. You did? It's very cute. That color looks good on you. Is Nolan catching your eye in the corner? I'm just wondering. It's like what? Maroon? Magenta? Maroon. So scarlet it was. The burgundy. Okay, anyway, what are you pissed about? What am I pissed about? I'm like waiting for the shot alarm. I'm like, please. Same. I can't. I'm like, wait, I just want it. Like, do you think it is? You got like one more minute. Don't spoil. Oh, sorry.

What am I pissed about? I'm pissed about, you know what I'm not pissed about? What? My outfit that I'm wearing tonight. And you know it's so cute. So cute. Like, I do want pics. I should have brought my camera. I have a camera. Yes. You have a good camera. I have a good camera. Should we take pics? Yeah. Okay. Everyone's using this fucking Canon camera. Kennedy got a Canon G7X in high school. And we were vlogging on that shit.

Do you have the vlog still? Sophomore. Duh, they're on YouTube. What? No, they're like private and like on photo booth, but like. Okay. Okay. I'll have to show you one day. Okay. Do I press repeat or stop? Repeat. Oh my God. Shot time. It's like a gift. It's like a little present. Are you in your Tiger and Eloise? I am in my Tiger and Eloise. Oh, we're twinning. Okay. Like pay. Did you set two? No. Yes, I did. You must have. Cheers. That went down. Pay end.

Don't do me like that. Finish it. You guys, I'm literally going to be hammered at tonight. That's the point. You took a baby step. So what are you most excited for tonight? What is your most excited moment for tonight that you're anticipating? I don't mind. You go first. Okay. I think I'm really anticipating the pregame. I was going to say the pregame.

This is the pre-pre-game. I love having people at my apartment. Yeah. It's very fun. I love to host. I love to cut up limes and lemons and just be cute. And I ordered us fresh alcohol, which is always a good sign. It felt like a college moment. I postmated. You know what's going to give you full body chills? I'm not ready. We get to pre-game to the new Sabrina Carpenter and Gracie Abrams song. Close to you. Yeah. And please, please, please.

That's a lot. We're going to play it in the Uber. Oh, my God. You guys know when you're having a girl pregame, it's like we're having a girls pregame. Yeah, we don't need to play. With our boys. Our girls pregame. With our girls. Our girls. It's four people. Wait, sorry, I will say. You guys know we run squad deep, and our squad is small. Small. It is small. And that's how we like it. That is how we like it. Do we? Yeah.

Yeah, you don't? No, I do like it that way. It just sometimes gets like, sometimes we don't have plans. You don't like our ass? No, I love our ass. I'm just saying sometimes we don't have plans. Yeah. We're getting better though. We're getting better. I mean, this weekend we're having plans. This weekend we're dripping in plans. We're dripping. Seriously. We have plans tomorrow. We don't have enough time in the day. We don't. We actually don't. I have to say no to a plan. Well, that's, I'm just down for everything always. Peyton is down for everything. Like that is your, one of your best qualities. I'm just down. Like I feel like you can make anything fun.

Oh, hey, that's so sweet. And you're with your besties. Yes. Nolan, what is your favorite thing to do to go out? I get really drunk. So it's like anything. Fuck, yeah. So do I. I'm like right there with you. Yeah. 100%. Like I go to a bar first thing I order is like a double shot of whiskey. Jesus Christ. Okay, that's me. And like I don't know my limit. No, neither do I. Period. I pick it up and then I put it down when I go to bed. Yeah, that's me. I would say you too.

Yeah, I do. Jake, it's like he's hard to get out. When you get him out, you can't get him home. Yeah. Like once Jake is out, it's like once you've ripped off the bandaid nine times out of 10, unless he's so tired and you're like at dinner and he like doesn't want to be there. Once you've ripped the bandaid off and you're out, you cannot get him home. There's this place that it's like after hours and all of our friends hate it, except Jake and I love it.

And it's open until 5 a.m. It's a speakeasy. And I'm not going to say the name of the place because I don't want to get them in trouble. But I will say that the last weekend, I remember I sent you those texts. I texted them and I said, hey, like, are you guys open tonight? And they said, hey, we just got raided by the feds. And they sent me a photo of half the staff handcuffed. But that would be Jake's party trick?

Is that no one would want to go to this place. Somehow. So Jake would say, okay, I'm going alone. And he'd call his own car and he'd get in his own Uber. And then I would always be like, I'm not letting you go. Alone. Alone. And everyone else would leave me except for Payette. And we would have a horrible time once we got there. No, the problem was...

it was my responsibility because I was the only person who also liked that place with you. Right. So it was like designated. Like if you're running there, it's like, obviously I'm chasing after you because no one else would step foot in there.

But then like sometimes we'd get there and paint would be like, we can't enter. Do you mind? I'd be like, Jake, we got to get the fuck home. It's four in the morning. Like we got to go home. I just like when I start, I don't want it to end. But I'm the same. I'm having too much fun. However, I will say because we have confirmed plans tonight and tomorrow, like we're going

I feel good. I don't. But like. I haven't felt this feeling in a while. I just get sad when the night ends. I get so depressed. Wait, you're preaching to the choir, babe. I hope we dance tonight. I'm shaking my shit. I'm shaking my shit and I do hope I catch a dick. One can only hope. One can hope. I'm already feeling like hot. I feel so hot. Do you want to open the door? Can we open the door, Nolan? Do you know he didn't know who Jordan Sparks was? That adds up. Why? I don't know. You know who Jordan Sparks is, right? Of course I do.

He didn't know the song No Air. No air, no air. No air. Let's listen to that. And I looked it up on the way home too. Nothing. Seriously? Jordan Sparks was like important to us. Yeah.

She was important. Was she not? Like, no air? Like, a fucking banger. Banger. Banger. And then what was it? Can't waste time, no, give it a moment. I realize nothing's broken. Till a part of everything I do. Tattoo! Yeah. Nolan, come on, get with it. I'm two decades old, man.

Oh, he's younger than us. Maybe that's it. That's so intense. Is that it? Maybe? Yeah, he's 20. What song are you most excited to hear tonight that we can play manually? Oh, I know mine. I'm like most excited to hear Please, Please, Please. Okay, that's okay. Because like I'm thinking like when the line comes in where she's like, don't embarrass me, you motherfucker. So good. Everyone's going to sing it. Yep. Like that's what I'm visualizing. And like everyone's going to be like, please don't prove them.

Okay, one of your mind. Yeah. Nani.

She's me. Ooh, got that nanny, nanny, nanny. How she walk through swinging that body. Like who gonna stop me? That's literally me. Plane, sprinter, van, to the club. Another club. Sprinter. Another club. Me. Backdoor section. Yeah, Peyton loves Peyton. Another club. If there's one song in this world Peyton loves, it's Nani. Yeah, it's amazing. It's the best. It is. It's a great going out song. It's a great song. Well, and also the lyrics are seriously my ideal night and life. Wow.

What? Plane, Sprinter, van to the club. You guys, one thing about us, or one thing about me, but I guess us because it's like our friend group thing. We love to go places for my birthday. Yeah. I'm like feeling drunk. I'm like slurring a little. No, I'm a hammer. We're going to like when the... We went to Vegas last year and it was...

So fun, you guys. It was so fun. The way back, however. The way there, so we took a sprinter. I'm sure you guys remember some of the content. We...

Took a Sprinter van. We met at my apartment in the morning. We got in our matching sweatsets. My birthday is July 31st. So it's like the peak of summer. And we were having the best time. We got there. We're having the best time. But even on the way there, like we were feeling a little hot. We stopped. We're like stripping layer by layer. Well, we realized on the way there that the AC in the Sprinter was broken. Yes. And that for some reason wasn't a problem for us really on the way there. It was not a problem. Like I think it was the adrenaline of the fact that we were so excited. We got to Vegas. We got to Vegas.

You go out to dinner. We go out. Who's... What? We have a table at this club. Oh, yeah. And we are... Wait, even before the club, you guys, we go to dinner. We are taking so many shots. We're drinking a lot at dinner. And then we go back to our room to pregame.

I boot and rally. Peyton does throw up. Well, because it's your birthday. What are you supposed to do? Yeah. But like I will say I'm a boot and rallier. You are a boot and rallier. And I can do that sometimes. Yeah. At Bandidos one time I threw up. Yeah. I miss college. Same so much. What do we do? I don't know. We're like old and sad. We had a lot of fun in college. So much fun. Wait, continue about our table. Vegas?

We go out. We have a great time. And then we go home the next day. Did Brett take a flight home? Brett and Drew took flights home. Got it. And then me, Peyton, Alice, Kennedy, and Julia took the Sprinter home. It was really hot. We took that thing home, let me tell you. And it was hot. It was so hot. It was 120 degrees in Vegas. It was... But can I just be honest? Despicable. Can I be honest? What? I'd rather not fly. I'd rather drive. Because I will say, the one thing... I hate the airport. I hate the airport.

Especially to Vegas, it's like you have a flight, you have to get to the airport, you have to leave your house wherever two hours before, then you get to the airport, you're there an hour early, go through security, bitch, and then you're on the plane, you get there, it's the same amount of time. It's the same amount of time. And it's miserable. Whereas Vegas is a four-hour drive, so it's like, ugh. But it's just like, we did have a sprinter with a broken AC, and that was... Yeah, it was really sad, and they didn't give me any money off.

Getting nervous. No, don't get nervous. We'll do, you can do a mini one. Yeah. I'm like already slurring. Okay. So with that, I think we should get into the tell me what's wrongs. Holy fuck. It's Amy. Hi, Amy. Hey, Amy. I've never smoked weed before. I'm 20 and I feel like I should at least try it, but I'm too paranoid. All my friends do it and they keep telling me to try. What should I do? Call me. Let's call you. Yes.

Because like weed is, but I'm not going to like push weed onto people. No, no, no. Let's just tell her. Take it as, take it as you want. But like do it in a safe place. Like your first time. You're not FaceTiming her? You're normal calling. Hi, Amy. It's Jake Shane. Hey, Amy. And Peyton. Wait. Wait. And Peyton. Say hi to Peyton. Hey, Amy. We got your tell me what's wrong about the weed.

Oh my God. You need to tell me what to do right now. Have you still not smoked ever? Never. I'm literally turning 20 in July. Oh, when's your birthday, Yurio? There's no timeline on weed. And when's your birthday? Yes, you can do whatever you want. July 12th. So are you a cancer? Yes, I am. This makes sense. You're a little anxious. It's just the anxiety.

Well, definitely don't let your friends, like, make, because if you smoke weed just because your friends are telling you to smoke weed, you're going to have a horrible time. Agreed. Exactly.

I feel like it needs to be a safe space and it needs to be when you're in the headspace and you're in the mood to try it. And you need to know you need to have like a buddy, like maybe your best friend who if you're feeling a little anxious and a little stressed, you can be like, hey, let's go a little overwhelmed. Let's like go outside. Let's do X, Y, Z. You need to have like a safe, a safe buddy. I will also say, Amy, that the first time you smoke, sometimes you don't get high.

So, like, yeah. And whatever you do, do not take an edible for the first time. Do not take an edible. Do not do that. Do not do that. If someone suggests trying to do that, they are tricking you. Really? Edibles can't be chill, honestly, ever. If you have bad anxiety, I don't know if weed is... You have anxiety. I know. I don't know if it's for you either. It sounds like you don't want to do it. I...

Also, don't... You know when you feel like almost like left out? That's what I feel. Oh, you're having FOMO. You're having FOMO, but like can I tell you something, Amy? Is that not what we learned when we were kids? Just because we were feeling left out doesn't mean we need to do drugs. I mean, I did, but it doesn't mean that we all need to do it. And like if you're having the clarity to be like, I know this is how I'm feeling. Like I'm so anxious. Like...

I don't know if it's for you. But, like, try it. If you ever want to try it, try it in a safe place. With a buddy. With a buddy. Are your friends stoners? What if you, I have a good idea. What, Peyton has an idea for you. Amy, what if you get, like, a CBD pen? Mm-hmm.

You're not having the THC. You're not going to get super anxious. CBD is calming. You're still like having something. You're having a device in your hand. Your friends can hit it if they want, whatever. I feel like that might be a safe next step. Yeah. Maybe. Yeah. I just, I totally get the, I totally get the anxiety. And my, my fear for you is that you get super high and have a really bad experience. And like, that's just so unenjoyable. And I like, don't want that to happen. I feel like it's like never going to end. I'm anxious. I feel like, oh my God, I just,

Yeah. And, like, can I tell you something? When you feel that way on weed, it's the worst feeling in the entire world. So, like, don't push yourself to do anything. Like, my advice, Amy, and this is so horrible, is, like, I would, like, do it when I was drunk for the first time. Yeah. To subdue the effects. I kind of think so, too. That's what I did. I smoked for the first time when I was drunk. Yeah. The thing is, I don't drink. Got it. Okay. Okay. If you don't drink...

weed is definitely not for you. CBD. CBD. At the most. CBD. Don't push yourself to do anything. Your friends will love you regardless. And if your friends are high 24-7, something else is going on. You need a new sober buddy. You know, maybe they should text you and tell you what's wrong. Exactly. Don't force yourself to do anything. Live life. You seem to be the best. So continue...

It's true. Don't force yourself to do anything. And like being left out, being left out is temporary. A traumatic experience is forever. Oh, I agree. That's kind of true. You know what? I think I made my decision. Yes. Okay. We love you, Amy. Love you, Amy. Do you want to say, do you want to say hi to the pussies? Yes. We love you, Amy. I love her.

I think we led her down the right path. I don't think she should smoke. Me either. She sounds really anxious and like I don't want her that to happen. Definitely not on our watch. Not on our watch. But let's smoke tonight. Absolutely. And eat Mr. Chow. I am so excited for this. Do you know how to use an air fryer? Of course I do. Do you like duck? I'll eat it if I'm hammered. I have the duck with tortillas and the sauce. Should we order Mr. Chow to like... Do you have the noodles? Yeah, I have the noodles and I have fried rice.

I'm so excited. I'm so excited. Okay. Please. One more out, though, so it's fresh. Yeah. I was playing a drinking card game with a guy I've been hooking up with for a year now. Yes. Well, neither of us can relate. And one of the cards was to reveal a secret the other person doesn't know. And he said he hooked up with my best friend a while ago, and I had yet to hear this from my best friend. Cool. Um...

I'm super upset. I'm like, that would ruin my night. I would honestly freak the fuck out. I would freak out. I would freak the fuck out. However, that sounds like something that would happen to me. Not in your current squad. Oh, no, no, no. But like seven years ago, for sure. No, no, no. Wait. Yeah, that. Yeah. That's bad. That's shady as fuck and really bad. A year? She's hooking up with this guy for a year and her best friend. Oh, the best friend didn't tell her? Yes. Yes. Yes.

- Oh my God, I misheard. - No, like they were playing a drinking game and it's reveal a secret to the partner that-- - I was playing a drinking card game with a guy I've been hooking up with for a year now and one of the cards was revealed. - This would never happen to me.

Not to like rub it in. No, I know. Oh my God. I'm so sorry. But oh my God, I really read it wrong. How bad is that? I was interpreting it as you like this guy and he said that he liked your best friend. That did happen to Payton once. Well, duh. Like maybe five times. No, Payton. It was one time.

Wait, oh my God, I'm so sorry. That is not a fucking vibe. Honestly, I would love to know the way you reacted in the moment. What would you do? I would... Okay, so... Oh my God, I would burn the house down. Jake, you know I would fucking rain fire. I would...

Oh my God. Like, I'm sorry. Like if I'm out, we're playing a drinking game. So I'm drunk. Number one. And I'm finding out this information. Also the fact that the guy is saying like, oh yeah, I hooked up with her. I would have been like, oh my God. I would. And like my friend didn't tell me. I'd be like, oh my God. I wonder what the friend looked like. She was probably like,

Oh my God, I'd fucking hit her. I would be so angry. I would freak out. You would be like, wait, haha, that's so weird. No, no, no. I would be like, yes, but I'd be like, what? And then you'd pull a Peyton. What? Oh yeah, you guys. I feel like I haven't done this in a while because I'm just always with my girls. So I'm not really in a position. But we prescribe pulling a Peyton. And what that is, is you complain about a situation loudly in front of the person that

Has caused the situation. So say Jake... Say I'm mad at Jake and we're out at a party. I would be like... Say I'm talking to Nolan. I would be like, oh my God, Jake is such a fucking asshole. I literally can't believe that Jake would do that. Loudly so I can hear. Yeah. So we prescribe pulling a pin. It works. It's bad. It's bad.

I feel like you always hear those stories of like the shady best friend who's like hooking up with her best friend's guy like behind her back. It is the worst type of story you can hear because it's like that's the worst type of friend. There is nothing worse than a girl who's shady.

To like about guys behind girls backs. It's just like I can't fathom lying to my friends. For example, the other day, Peyton and I were supposed to get we were like talking about dinner. And I was like, I'm going to stay in tonight. And then last minute, I decided to go to a work thing. So I texted Peyton on the spot. Hey, by the way, I just don't want you to think I'm being shady. I decided within the last 20 minutes that I'm going to a work thing.

That's the transparency you need in a friendship. 100%. Well, I feel like that is also something that comes with time. It's like when you have best friends for a long period of time and it's like these are going to be your best friends for life, aka like our friends, you get to a level of like real, real like honesty and respect where you're like point blank and it's like, oh, hey,

I fucked up with this person. Right. Why didn't she tell her? I'm just confused why she didn't tell her when they were just like casual because they've been hooking up for a year. That's a long time. Also, number one, that's so long. Also, I'm so mad about the fact that you had to learn about it in a group setting. Oh my God, it's the worst. There is nothing worse. Like that is so fucking rude. It's rude. It's rude. It's rude. You had to learn about it in person.

In front of the girl and the guy, I literally probably would have made them both. I would have been like, okay, everyone else get up. Let's us three sit here and I'm going to fucking grill you assholes. I'm going to prescribe Vanderpump Rules the season where Scandival happens. I didn't watch that, but I know it's tea. That's what it's given. Yeah. I'm sorry to whoever just said that to me. We just got, we got into it.

I just graduated high school and my whole senior class is going to Cabo and my parents won't let me. How do I deal with the FOMO of being alone while all my friends are drunk and clubbing together? Please help me. And she just gave me her number. And you know what? Peyton cannot relate to this, but I can. Yeah, I can't, but that's fine. Hi, this is Jake Shane. I got your tell me what's wrong. So you're not allowed to go to Cabo, huh? Hi, pussies. Oh, you want to say hi to the pussies? Go. Ready? Ready? Say hi to the pussies. This is

Okay, wait, pause. Pause the story. We have to take a shot. It's shot time. It's shot time. We have a shot clock going off. Yeah. Sorry, hold on. Let me put you right here. I'm putting you right there. Okay. No pour for me. Okay, you guys. Sorry. We have a shot timer going off during this episode, so I just need a second. Cheers.

Okay, you guys. This episode is called Peyton's Pre-Game, so we're pre-gaming to go out. Okay, so you just graduated, and all your friends are going to Cabo, and you can't go to Cabo. Sarah. Okay. Way to rub it in, Haley. Way to rub it in, Haley. Hi, Cameron. Okay, you're not going to Cabo as well. I'm Emily, and I'm going to Cabo. I'm Peyton, and I'm going to Cabo. Our whole friend group, everybody.

Ooh. Wait, Jake, Jake. Because... Actually, wait, I don't think I... You can say it. Guys, there's a guy that I'm talking to that's going to Cabo, and that's not good. Good luck, Charlie. Okay, here's what I'm going to tell you. Who's not going to Cabo? Raise your hand. Who's not going to Cabo? Raise your hand. Okay, okay. I didn't go to Paradise Island the senior year of my high school, okay? Everyone went to PI. I'm just going to tell you right now, it was the worst week of my life. Okay.

It was the worst week of my life. And I thought about dying. I did. And then you know what? And you know what? I survived. And the week passed. And then I went to college. And then I haven't thought. And then I was like, ew. Everyone who went to Paradise Island, I'm so glad I didn't do that. Just because I didn't need to. When you're 23, 24, you're going to look back at the Cabo trip and be like, ew.

Wait, also, if the guy that you're hooking up with is going and you're so nervous about him, like, doing whatever, God knows what, he isn't, like, still texting you, talking to you, whatever, and if he does hook up with other people, then he's not meant for you. You're so right. And you need someone else. Honestly, if this is someone you, like, actually want to be your boyfriend, you really like him, it's, like, it's just, like, seeing...

all the other people seeing fresh and shiny things, then you're too good for that. You're too good for that. But, like, don't push back on your parents just because, I mean, like, listen, if this was college spring break, I'd be like, steal their money. Me too. But, like, this isn't. It's high school, and, like, you're fine. And, like, you know what? Like, when is Cabo spring break? Wait, what month is it? I'm going to June. What? Why are you guys going to Cabo? It's not spring break. It's summer. And how long are they going to Cabo for?

Monday and we come back. Oh my God, you guys, it's not even. You're so excited, huh? Okay, you know what I prescribe? A let me sleep for like four days. You guys, it's not even over the weekend. Oh my God, thank God you have your girl with you. Wait, you guys will be together and you guys can like look at Snap Stories and like be bitchy. Okay, well, we love you guys. Love you. Yeah, they're us. They're us. Love to them. They were giving. Okay. Can I read one? We have another call. It's a hotline playing over here.

Hold on, I need my vape. Hey guys, watch my friend Peyton while I'm gone. You know the TikTok trend? Yeah. Okay, so I'm going to talk about our night. I'm already getting really red cheeks and I'm already feeling very hot. So I know I'm already getting drunk, which is such a good sign and such a telltale of a positive and super, super silly and exciting hours to come.

Jake and I are going to Nobu, which is the perfect pregame. So super excited about that. And then, as you guys know, we're going to Doheny Room. And then I hope we end up somewhere super magical and mysterious. I'd be happy with any sort of House in the Hills. Any sort of...

After hours moment, but I really hope Jake and I are manifesting. Jake and I don't go to bed until at least three in the morning. And then we're going to wake up and do it all over again tomorrow. We're going to, as you guys already know, again, Jake's brother's birthday dinner. And then we have another Partiful party. So I think this weekend is really sponsored by Partiful.

We are having all the links. We're having all the RSVPs. We're having all the text blasts. We're doing all the things. So... I just got her wisdom teeth out. So come on, Brett. Come say hi. Come on. Do you want to tell? Here, I'll give you my mic. Tell the pussies how your wisdom teeth look. Yeah, you can sit where? Cuddle up, babe. Hey, pussies. The actual procedure is...

Was it okay? Yeah. You were awake? No, no, no, no. Wait, not to cut you off, but I will say I was dying. I was like, of course Brett wouldn't get loopy. It just makes sense. Yeah. Of course. Max just like recorded me just like being a little out of it, but I didn't say anything weird or anything. It hurts so bad. I won't lie. I took the painkiller. I text her. I text her. What'd they give you? Oxycodone. Hi, Max. Max is here. Yeah, Max. Hi, Max.

This has been my nurse, you guys. It's Peyton's pregame. We're hammered. We have dinner. This is Max Pussies. Say hi. He's being my nurse. He's nursing. No. He was supposed to go to the Odessa concert and sold his ticket. Yeah, as you should. So, yeah. Max, what did you have for dinner? Barbecue. Barbecue.

And you ate it in front of a brat who can't eat anything right now? Yeah, I felt kind of bad on that one. No, it's okay. I smelled it. She did smell. What did you have to eat? The creamy broke. The creamy broke. Of course it was. For a week of your wisdom tooth surgery? Yeah, it smelled like it was burning. Really? I can't put this in. You can't understand me. No worries.

Okay, I had like half a creamy, or not even, like a few bites. I was crying because I was in so much pain. Yeah, I yelled at her. You yelled at me? Max! She needed to eat. Yeah, I needed to eat to take the oxycodone. Okay, you know what, Brad? I'm not going to keep you. Okay, but just to finish what else I ate. Chocolate milk. Yummy. And a little bit of ice cream that his mom got me. Sweet. She sent pints of salt and straw. Oh! It's so much more true.

Your mom's not Max's mom. No, Max's mom, but this reminded him that he has to text back my mom. When I get a text at five in the morning, because it's like so ahead other times, I'm just going to, I forget. I do too, don't worry. Okay, well, I'm not going to keep you guys. Love you. Love you. Say bye to the pussies. Bye, pussies. I'm so happy I got to see you.

All I've ever wanted was a nice boy, and now there's a beautiful boy who treats me with the utmost respect and his walking green flag. Wish. Must be nice. He is very intentional and never leaves me wondering, but I find myself missing the men who bullied me so much. I am a slut for banter. Facts. I really, really get this, but I was actually talking about this with some of our friends this past weekend. One of, I feel like...

I was just making kind of a blanket statement and saying that I feel like all of the best couples and a lot of people right now that are in like long term relationships with boys that they really, really, really like. Correct me if I'm wrong. Let me know your thoughts here. I feel like they all started off with a hint of like, oh, but like, I don't know if he's for me.

Because I feel like everyone is kind of used to these assholes who are like leaving you guessing. So when you've been with this type of guy for so long and then you have a guy who's so upfront, so confident, he's like not beating around the bush. He's telling you exactly like how he feels and he's like really like giving you what you want. You're like, oh my God, what? But is he too forward? Is he giving me too much? Is he doing this? And it's like, no, he's just behaving like a normal man. Yeah.

So I was saying I feel like a lot of good relationships start in that way where you're like, oh, but is he too nice? But is he do this? And it's like, no, he's just like a man who's mature. Yeah. And like treating you the way you should be treated. I agree. Right. Yeah. And maybe you miss the other guys because you have attachment issues and you miss not being attached to someone. But like the prospect of actually actual attachment comes about then. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. Oh my God, we haven't been prescribing. I know, so let's start right now. Okay, I prescribe, why am I drunk? Me too. Fuck, I'm scared. I was going to do Gossip Girl, but like Chuck's an asshole. I'm going to prescribe the next question. I'm going to, well, no. And also, honestly, like this is so unhelpful. I was also going to prescribe The Vampire Diaries and Elena leaves perfect Prince Stefan for asshole Damon. So like, I can't help you. You just have to take my word for it.

We prescribed Peyton's word. My word's the gospel. Okay, just a quick side note. At dinner, I hope they like, can we call in and be like, can you put food on the table for one? Nope, can't do that. Okay. Because we're going to dinner with normal people. Okay. You guys, Jake and I are getting hammered. Okay. Oh my God, this is like our 10th shot. I think it's like our fourth. You guys, we're going to show up to dinner and these people are going to be like. I'm going to fall asleep at the table.

You guys, Jake and I are like seriously getting fucked up. So the issue is when it starts tasting like water, that's when I know I'm in for a real treat of a night. You guys, whoa. How much longer, like, are we able to take these shots for? I don't know. I guess we'll see. Paytents pregame. Should I make a song? Yeah. Paytents pregame. Paytents pregame.

Peyton's pregame makes me feel insane. I wonder every day if it's going to be the day for Peyton's pregame. Makes me feel insane. I wonder if every day it's going to be Peyton's pregame. Makes me feel insane. Sorry, I can't remember the words. I'm drunk. Opinions on Sabrina.

I'm drunk. Opinion. Opinions on Sabrina Carpenter's new music video. Dash, Maddie, have you seen it? Maddie, like we're fucking gagged, obviously. Yeah.

We are gagged. We are sick. I'm sick. We are so down for the pop girl revival. This is bringing back Hollywood. No, I hate it. They are everything. We live for them. Sabrina can do no wrong. The whole thing, it felt like a mini production. The jail, everything. Oh my God, and how hot is Barry? Oh my God.

They looked, they just did that. They did that. Things they did. That. That. That. That. It really is. Oh my God, I wish we could play the song right now because it's all I want to listen to. I'm so excited to pregame to it. Yeah, you guys, we're going to sing. If there's one thing we're going to do tonight, we're going to sing.

Please. Please. Don't prove I'm right. Oh, you're like a good singer. I sometimes. You really are. Should we listen just for five seconds? No. Okay. But I wish. So my best friend's boyfriend just broke up with her over Snapchat. Let her the fuck on and we just want to debrief with you. Please call. We have the screenshots, babe. Yes. Oh, my number is. Call her right now. FaceTime. FaceTime. Okay. I'm FaceTiming. Receipts. Screen shots. Proof. Proof.

Okay, how do I FaceTime this? Copy the number and go into FaceTime. FaceTime, okay. New FaceTime. I got your tell me what's wrong. Who broke up with who over Snapchat? You guys, we want the proof. We put in two. Why you hurt my friend? Look on the, please look on the road. No! Who's really acting like a kid if you're breaking up over Snapchat? Road, please. Pull over, girl. Because she wanted to call. Put her in here. I'm just kidding. Does she want to be added into this call? Add Shay. Maybe. Yes. Let's.

We need the proof. We need them. We need them. Nolan, I just got a notification for your partiful. What does it say? The surprise party is tomorrow. You have a surprise party? And I'm not invited? Why? Is it working to add her? Yes, it is. Ring, ring, ring, ring. Are you guys in college? We'll come.

Yes. Different area codes, I could tell. Because, like, best friends would... It makes me love hanging out. Yeah, what happened? Okay, so they got broken up with over Snapchat, and that was rude. Your friend told me he called you a kid. I'm telling you right now, let me just make you feel better. Whoever breaks up with someone over Snapchat and calls them a kid, is oxymoron the right word? Yeah. Oxymoron is a word. Yeah, that's the right word. That is the word. Because he's a child.

He is. That is so true. You're beautiful. Oh, my God. Okay, do you guys want to say hi to the pussies? Okay, we love you guys. Fuck, Peyton. I'm drunk, dude. Oh, my. You guys still use Snapchat? It's five in the morning. No. No. Yes. Yes. We use Snapchat to send photos. Just for, like, our group chat. Wait, we need another Tell Me What's Wrong. Will you read us one? Yeah, read us one. Nolan. Nolan. You've never read one before, and I think I need you to read one for us right now. All right. Let me see. I told my best friend that I like this guy.

Then she told me that she liked him too. She has a boyfriend. Come on, boot and rally. Minnie. Minnie. Minnie. Fuck. You guys, it is 7.30. I walked in here with prom curls at a right 5.30. Okay, one more shot. This is our last. This is our last shot, you guys. This is our last shot. Should we make it special? Let's make it special. Maybe you can give a little toast, Peyton, to the night and the weekend. Okay. Making a toast. Put it up.

Eyes. Eyes. To our first weekend together in LA. In about three weeks, Jake was out of town and then I was out of town. And we are just cheersing to good company, good friendship, good vibes. Duh, you took the words out of my mouth.

And just a positive good night, meeting new people, shaking some new ass, and just having the best time ever. I'm so excited. I'm so excited. Cheers to, most of all, a pay and J weekend. PB and J weekend. PB and J weekend. Cheers. Thank God we have dinner after this. Gonna be dark. I'm already falling asleep. Okay.

None of that. I know. Jake, seriously, it's not funny. Nolan, you were reading the Tell Me What's Wrong? Oh, yeah. I was. I picked a new one. I just moved home from college, and I don't know how I'm supposed to find a boyfriend while living at home with my parents. Olivia. Bye, Olivia. Bye, Olivia.

I understand that. Because I used to go on Grindr when I was home from college. We would get so mad when Jake would go on Grindr because he would just not be safe. You know how it's like when you're using Hinge, you're using Tinder? I needed sexual experiences. You have to be safe and you have to be very cautious.

I would say, like, the number one rule is making sure you have, like, mutual friends with the person. Jake would run off rampant. With, like, 40-year-olds. Is it rampant or rampant? Rampant? Rampant. Rampant? Jake would run off rampant with old, older men. Old men. Yeah. I just, like, needed a sexual experience and, like... Yeah, I get it. But I understand, like, not being able to find a relationship while you're home with your parents, but, like...

The guy you find, just like chances wise, like isn't going to be with his parents. Yeah. You know what I mean? Well, no, no, no. She's living at home with her parents and she's trying to find a guy at home. So I would say first and foremost, first of all, I would tap in to all your old sneaky links.

Because it's like you're back home. It's like may as well tap into all of your high school crushes. If you have like a high school ex-boyfriend, that's a resource. Yeah. Also, like I'm prescribing Snapchat.

Because... We just un-prescribed Snapchat. Listen. Because if you're going back to your high school days, you open your fucking memories and you go to 2017, you find your crushes and you fucking Snapchat them. Yeah. Because...

We're going back in time. That's why I'm prescribing Snapchat, and I'm also prescribing, like, a dating app. Yeah. On the real. Because it's like you're really trying to find someone. You got to start moving your thumbs. I'm going to kill myself. I don't want to talk about it. Oh, my God, Peyton. It's all I want. I just want to kiss someone. Can't talk about it. Can't talk about it. This is really bad. No, like, we've been single for so long. So have I.

But Nolan, it's different. It's really bad. It's really bad. You're four years younger. Oh, cool. We need to sober up. What do we do? Also, you guys, we're going to be drunk at dinner. Okay, Peyton, what did we learn today? We learned... Or tonight, because it's a pregame. Pregame ever. This is a great pregame. Okay, on the real, I would say we learned that we really value our friend group's friendship. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. We love our friends. We love our squad. We love our squad. And we, I think, are always...

very grateful for our friends but i feel like this really solidified that we just love our yeah we're very good friends we read so many we read so many things about our friends i think we learned that if someone close to you has been lying to you for over a year you drop them like a fly immediately 100 like a fly like a fly also like in the healthiest way possible not in a

bad vibes way, but normalize dropping people. PN. Yes. If someone is doing you a disservice and they are being mean to you, they're not bringing you joy, they're not being a positive friend, they're dragging you down, and they're not bringing you happiness, friendships at our age should be a bit easier. And they should add to your life. Not take away. Not take away. It's like,

You should want to call your best friends with like your happy moments, your successes, and you shouldn't be like nervous that your friends are lying to you. It's like normalize protecting your peace. I would, I would say that.

That's great. Not like normalize dropping people in that way, but normalize- Luke just texted. Normalize protecting your peace and standing up for yourself. Yeah. Yeah. 100%. That was great, Peyton. Did you learn anything else? I just learned that I'm really excited for our night. Me too. I'm excited for our weekend. And we need dinner. I'm excited for our vibes. And-

I feel like this summer is just the time for the most positive and good vibes. It's like it's June. Let's bring on the sunshine. Let's bring on the boys. Let's bring on the crushes. Let's bring on the good vibes. Agreed. And it's like summertime. It's time to go out. So let's shimmy. And we'll leave you with that. Love you, pussies. Thank you for joining us for Peyton's pregame. And Peyton, thank you for hosting this lovely pregame. Thanks, Jake. Love you. Love you. Bye, you guys.

Bye, you guys. Say bye, pussies. Bye, pussies. Do you do the timer anymore? What timer? Oh, my God. Whoa. Oh, can I do it? Yeah, you can do it. Wow, that's a throwback. Did you guys not do this anymore? We haven't done that in so long. Oh, your session's up. We love you, pussies. Love you, pussies. Hi, pussies. Put your tents up. Put your tents up. Tents up. Smart cookies.
