This is a HeadGum Podcast.
So I'm in the kitchen area, the long table with Naomi.
Naomi, it's coming to me. It's coming to me. with Naomi. Naomi.
It's coming to me.
It's coming to me.
Naomi Spanish.
It's Naomi Spanish.
And we are
inventing
dessert pizza.
So it's pizza crust,
but it's gummy worms
and the sauce is
jelly and the cheese is Big League Chew.
That's good cheese.
And we're spreading around.
We're having fun and we're rolling dough and we toss the dough.
What's the dough?
And we make the pizza.
The dough is, of course.
What?
Laffy toffee. The course... Laffy toffee. What? Laffy toffee.
The dough's laffy toffee, and so it's laffy toffee with red vines, jelly, gummy worms,
Big League Chew.
And it's going actually pretty well, and we're having just a fun afternoon.
Is anyone getting sticky?
I'm wearing gloves.
Okay.
And a big latex suit.
Have you ever seen American Horror Story?
No.
American Horror Story season one, there's a man named Latex Man.
He's in a full body black latex suit and he impregnates Connie Britton.
Yeah.
Some people get horny about that.
He's making people horny.
Oh, okay.
I am wearing that suit. Have they considered
thinking about Margaret
Thatcher naked on a cold day?
I'm trying to,
yeah, I think they do
have to do that in order to
become less horny.
So nobody's getting sticky.
Naomi Spanish, not getting sticky. She may be getting
sticky. I can't see too well out of the suit.
Okay. But it's a fun weekend. You can't see too well out of the suit. Okay.
But it's a fun weekend.
You know, we've broken into the pizza place.
And... Hot in a black clay tech suit, right?
It's especially next to that pizza oven.
Yeah.
Anyway, we put it in and it breaks the oven.
I'm sorry.
Lacey did an Instagram story.
Lacey... I thought story. Lacey.
I thought I wasn't supposed to be here right now.
While we were talking and Sean was so completely derailed.
He looked directly into my camera.
I'm so sorry.
And meanwhile, I'm just like looking straight ahead.
I'm like not even noticing that there's an Instagram story happening.
Right.
Yeah.
Being very cool.
I'm so sorry.
You handled it really well.
My reaction was,
and this is why I don't do as much on camera anymore.
It was a lot of that when he was acting.
And he was done less on camera.
When the camera turns on,
he's supposed to be talking,
he's like, hey.
He's like, why is someone filming me?
Yes.
Sorry, are you filming this?
I would say often in the middle of a scene.
But the scenes were like really, really great.
The scenes were going so good.
I thought they were going really well.
Yeah, what was some of them?
Some of the scenes?
Yeah.
Hang on.
I'll do.
Well, you have to do the lines.
I'm usually.
Hey, welcome to Hollywood Handbook.
Oh, not that.
Something else.
Oh, I have to be the one who's talking.
And the scenes, usually someone else is talking.
Right.
And they are going really well.
So it's not you.
So you're interrupting their scene.
To say, I'm sorry, are you filming this?
This is a private conversation.
It's Hollywood Handbook.
Hollywood Handbook.
Insider's Guide to Kicking Butt and Dropping Names.
The red carpet linebacker always in this industry we call showbiz.
Every time we welcome a new member to this great big family that we have
that is called Earwolf, that is so precious to us
and that I would absolutely die for any person in this building.
I would lay down on the railroad tracks and get run over to death
in order to save June Diane Rayfield.
Oh, just specific people,
not just like the brand of Earwolf?
Oh, certainly Earwolf.
If we have to go to war with another podcast studio,
will you?
Even former members, Engineer Frank,
anyone who has ever passed through
the storied halls of Earwolf.
Even the squires
who are betrayed
betrayers
of this bread
yeah
I too would like
unplug some headphones
and like choke someone
to death
in the name of Earwolf
you would murder for
Earwolf's good name
murder for Earwolf
absolutely
and with like
Earwolf property
because I feel like
that makes it even more special
you use Earwolf property
as a weapon to kill yeah like it's mostly like headphones um chips pretty much all it is not
even that lately it's like that's true it's been low when you're here your family it's earwolf and
it's my only real family but But blood in and blood out also.
Oh, yes.
You don't get to leave.
The Sklars left a pound of flesh on Scott Aukerman's floor.
Weirdly, the pound, you could just kind of tell looking at the pound
that it was like three quarters Jason.
I know.
And one quarter me.
Well, his has glasses.
Yes, his little pal had a little glasses part.
Lacey, welcome so much and have such a good time and always have fun.
Thank you so much.
And never forget to just be nice.
It's been, for us, 10 years on Earwolf and it hasn't gotten stale.
It's
still walking in. I get
that same rush, that adrenaline,
those little goose pimples
up my arms, you know, that you
get that tingling of like, oh, there's
creativity happening in these halls.
And I just want to put
like the one like sort of early
issue behind us, which is when you walk into Earwolf, there are shows on the wall.
Oh, yes.
Let's just get this out of the way.
There are shows on the wall.
There are these big posters that say, these are the shows we make here at Earwolf.
Wow.
And they've been adding a lot of new shows, but for a long time, Hollywood Handbook was still on the wall and that was so nice.
And then it did get moved to behind the cold brew machine.
Got behind the refrigerator, yes.
And so it was there.
And I kind of liked that.
It was like, oh, we're sort of the secret little show.
Like you got to be a real fan to find our show,
which is true.
And I would look at that and say,
okay, we are behind the cold brew machine,
but how did this get made as an on the wall at all?
So that, I mean, that's like great for us. And I thought only I'm noticing this, but How Did This Get Made isn't on the wall at all. That's great for us.
I thought only I'm noticing this, but
someone else noticed, certainly not the people from
How Did This Get Made who haven't been inside this studio
in about eight years because they are
double dipping and only do live shows.
But, someone
noticed, whether it was an intern,
a
producer Kevin type, whether it was an intern a producer kevin type um whether it was uh i don't know who else
would have noticed maybe it could have been tugboat it could have been the cold brew like
dispenser like replacer man hey wait a minute where's zooks and so we now are gonna have my
zooks technically on the wall
but our sign is leaning against
the wall behind the
how did this get made sign
and in our old spot
is the scam goddess
that's right and she has perpetrated
the ultimate scam and it is
an honor to be
scammed off the wall
I got scammed right out of the building by the goddess
I'm so sorry I did I somehow
scammed my way into getting
your spot and I'm so sorry about that
I will tell you though
how I was told that this
came about was you guys
are so popular and everyone loves you so
much that you don't even need a sign
and my show is new
and so people are learning about it
and so they were like we gotta put the sign up cause she
needs it. Never scam a scammer
that's rule number one of scam goddessing
you should know this by now
you can't scam me like this
I was really told that
these are facts, scammers know that
the best lie is the truth
and this is really what I was
told, I'm not even lying.
As I walk, let me just paint,
I'm doing this sort of a role-playing adventure for people.
So I walk in, I turn to the right,
no Hollywood handbook, Scam Goddess there.
I turn to the left, I see a reception desk
with some merchandise underneath.
On top of that desk is another big photo of you
that says Scam Goddess.
And it says, congrats Scam Goddess team on a
successful show launch
It's been a long time since we launched our
show but I do not remember a sign
like that. We didn't get it but you know who else didn't
get it was Conan. Anyone else
Okay yeah well Conan
is called the inventor of podcasts
by Variety Magazine so I think he's good
They famously biffed
the launch of that. The launch was fucked up.
Kevin blew the launch.
Specifically Kevin.
Kevin, yes.
He left our show
to run that
and then immediately
it exploded on the launch.
Kevin tripped
and spilled the podcast
right before the launch.
It spilled everywhere.
I find this so hard to believe
because Conan on Brian,
like I feel like he,
when he launches like a dookie, it's like a success.
And that is what he does.
Like when he leaves the bathroom, people are clapping.
Like, oh my God, Conan, that shit.
I mean, I know you shit every day, but that one.
He launches that shit.
So good.
You know what I mean?
It's impossible to biff it when you're Conan.
So I'm trying to get to that level.
Well, that's good. i've never seen that sign before
for anything congrats on a successful lunch i wonder what made it so successful it seems like
it probably just got uploaded like all the other podcasts um yeah that's true it did get uploaded
just like all the other podcasts um I heard some links broke. Okay.
Yeah, from clicking, which was pretty tight.
But also I was like, fix the links.
I need more people to click them.
People clicked it so hard that it broke.
Soft link break the chain.
Just physical clicking broke the links.
So I was like, Earwolf, please fix these links.
But yeah, I personally,
I don't know if I put those signs up there I wasn't involved you don't know if you did
I didn't physically put them up there but
I appreciate them being there
and there was also two signs when I came in there was only
one sign and I was like where's the other sign
and then it was behind so see I also
I too
have had the experience of being put behind
another sign yes my sign was
put behind my own sign
but still i had two signs and i needed well three okay but yeah so what it means to me honestly is
that i should be very frightened because whoever's making all these signs is even more scared of you
than they are of us and we know that all the Earwolf employees are scared of us.
We have obviously punished your Joshes.
One by one.
Your Collins.
So many Joshes and Collins.
You know, they have a support group.
There's a specific Josh one and also a specific
Collins support group.
There's a lot of cold brew and there's a lot of
crying.
That might be related. Collins a lot of cold brew and there's a lot of crying. That might be related.
Colin's too much cold brew.
I will say I feel like I
stepped into an ambush. I will say
I feel like Mona Scott Young is
producing this show. If you don't know who
Mona Scott Young is, she produces
Love and Hip Hop.
She produces
any show about people who are not actually employed anymore throwing drinks
at each other.
So if you've seen any show where alcohol has been thrown in anybody's face, there's a chance
Mona Scott Young is behind it.
And it's a trap.
And they say, this will not happen to you and you will be dry on this show.
They say that.
They say that.
And then the producers go, look, we pay you by the scenes.
So if you don't start throwing some drinks, I mean, I don't know what to tell you.
Did she produce the wine down?
She did not produce the wine down.
Are they throwing drinks on the wine down?
I don't know.
I know there's drinks involved.
That's new.
Toss them back a couple.
Yeah, they toss them back into their throat.
Cold glasses of wine.
Throw them straight to the uvula.
But I came in.
I mean, I feel like this is like also Andy Cohen could be producing this.
I came in.
I thought we were going to, you know, like fellowship with one another.
And I immediately came into this like heat from you guys.
I didn't move the sign.
Can I say what you walked into?
You walked into facts.
Wow. The facts. Wow.
The facts.
You guys can't hear it,
but he just threw a drink at me.
I'm wet.
You need another one, Mona?
Mona's here in the corner
handing shots.
You need another one?
Do you have an engineer
that does every one of your shows?
And who's your producer here?
What are we working with?
So my producer's Cody Ziegler.
Yes, okay.
Heard good things.
Heard very good things.
That could work.
Passionate about his shows.
I see him posting about them online.
Yeah, he truly does.
Really gets behind the show.
Chef Kevin, you ever see anybody do anything like that?
Get on that mic, Kev.
Hey guys, Chef Kevin here.
Yes, I do post.
I'm a proud parent.
I called you Producer Kevin earlier.
I forgot your name.
Okay, what's the engineer situation?
Rotating or you have like a personal catcher?
You got a main one.
I think it's rotating.
You have never even looked over there
have you ever met this guy
there's only Cody
in my sessions
have you met this guy before
no
he's the head engineer
oh wait
have we
we have to
improv for humans
right
holy shit
yeah but you also
have to realize
when I go to
improv for humans
I'm in a different
head space
I'm obviously
you're in the best room
we're all like
former UCB
I probably should be
but like Besser's
like my
like you know
uncle godfather
when I go in there
he like does
it's
only him
nobody else
but I just feel like
I go in and I'm like
I gotta look professional
don't look too much
in the eyes
like for your uncle
did I come with my comedy
ready
you have to dress up
for your uncle
it's like when you see
Uncle Godfather.
Now you must
be dressed up. Your Uncle Godfather's coming over, so
be on your best behavior.
I am.
And so I feel like I don't remember a lot
because I black out. It's like a
comedy blackout where I'm like, I don't know.
It'll be funny.
Yeah.
So Cody does the engineering and the
producing. It would seem that way.
If I'm sitting in this room
and I'm only doing one of those things,
I would try to pick up
the other one really soon.
If I were Brett, I would learn how to send a email.
If I were Kevin, I would learn how to move a computer mouse. If I'm Brett, I would learn how to send a email. And if I were Kevin, I would learn how to move a computer mouse.
If I'm Brett, I would start rehearsing these words.
Hannah reached out to them.
I would memorize that sentence as quickly as possible.
That's the key to producing.
Yeah, because that's the last thing you hear about most guests.
If you say, hey, can we get this person?
What you'll hear is from your producer, Hannah reached out to them.
Lacey, we do want to do some scams.
So people come on your show and they're doing scams.
Who's come on the show?
Who's scamming on there?
So, of course, Paula Tompkins has come on the show. Nicole Byers has come on the show. Who's scamming on there? Of course, Paula F. Tompkins
has come on the show. Nicole Byers
has come on the show. I love Jamie Loftus.
She's been on the show. Lauren Lapkus and I
met on a scam.
I love them both.
I love them both.
You met Lauren out on a scam.
I didn't know if you know Jamie, so maybe I put more emphasis
on that. You love Jamie Loftus.
It is the person we haven't had.
Don't try to do drama to me, okay?
They're trying to do drama to me right now.
I'm trying to do facts.
Please don't tell on us.
I am going to tell.
I'm going to tell everyone
that I walked into the room
and I was ambushed.
Excuse me.
You don't tell on me on my own show.
Brett, I'm using my one edit per episode
do you have this role with your engineer you get one edit oh are you kidding me no i edit i edit
down i'll come in on edits and like i remember those things sitting in and i've heard that you
can give us some of your extra ones but it is allowed i've heard that I'll get more lacks, but I'm like insane right now.
We have rollover edits.
We have a couple saved up from episodes where we just actually fucking nailed it.
Edit credits.
I've had to like have people edit things out because I'm like, oh, that's like my mom's business.
Problematic.
No, it's just like my mom's personal business.
I was like, I shouldn't do that because I used to do that on podcasts.
And I'd be like, yeah, this is fucking who gives a fuck like it's a podcast maybe some
people here and your mom would call you well not only my mom would call me some articles started
like surfacing on the internet where people were like doing deep dives on me and were listening to
podcasts and we're like she just came out as a bisexual and I was like okay look us too we have
our articles too yeah people are writing articles about us as well
I believe that
oh my god I relate because we get articles
written about us there was one in LA Weekly
in 2011
and they're actually
working on another one
I did not mean that
as a weird brag
I just meant like
I don't want my mom to be like you know a casualty of like
my podcast narcissism you're saying your mom just came out as bisexual your mom wow and we've got
the scoop article writers article writers generic article writers get to typing. So these scams, you're selling dangerous goods?
No, I don't like talk about my scams.
You don't talk about them.
The show is not talking about your scams.
The show must be very short.
Until my scams are retired, I don't talk about them.
Are they life hacks?
No, they're scams.
And so I can't like, they're like, you know how you can be like, something's like legal
and then something's like legal
adjacent and then something's illegal
so like these are like legal
adjacent things these are like in the cul-de-sac
of legal
you know what I mean but not quite
like there is no outlet and they aren't
actually legal stealing
some scams
I hear are stealing
you're on Floridaida girls yeah on pop yeah uh and
you also so i'm just like guessing one of the scams is you also famously have a prop house
yeah and so you are demanding that your like character uh always be like carrying very
expensive props that like just like oh it so happens that like you only have at your prop house.
Like things like that.
That, I truly don't even understand what you just said.
And Hayes, I love you.
I support you.
This partnership means the world to me.
I also don't understand what you're saying.
Let me explain.
And this is, and I,
so maybe this is you not being willing to talk about your scams.
It's,
it's maybe that you need one example of an expensive prop.
Also,
I'm like,
like a gold rake.
Yes.
And so you say like,
well,
my character obviously like carries around this gold rake and they're like,
oh,
where are we going to find that?
And then they're like,
oh,
well you call this prop house.
You answer your other phone
that's your prop house phone
and then people have to buy shit from me
I understand now oh that's excellent
gold rake that would be really expensive
I do do the thing of like you know they'll ask you
like oh do you need like soaps in your
trailer do you need like blah blah blah
and I'm like yeah I do I need
Luxie Tan, Joe Malone
I need you to go to Neiman Marcus because I only use $500 face cream.
Because I learned that you can do that and they'll buy it for you.
Yes.
Smart, smart, smart, smart, smart.
I try to get as much bought for me as possible when I'm shooting a television show.
Can I tell you my scam?
What's your scam?
It's happening today as every Saturday.
And when I do walk out of this room, I'm going to grab a bag of the popcorn.
They don't even have the popcorn anymore.
No popcorn today?
It's all nasty chips.
I'm taking it off today.
Do you think they're getting nasty chips?
I take a bag of popcorn and I take it home with me.
I feel like nasty chips are a scam.
I feel like it's like, look, we have all this food for you, but it's not what you want. Yes not food you want absolutely but it counts as food i think you can't say we didn't give you food i
think that's right you stock the fridge you go like there's all the diet sprite and uh like
like original lays that you want and you go like i'm not gonna eat that right but it's there they
tried to feed you yeah i went to a charity event that i was performing at and this woman had tons of bottles of wine and no wine openers so there was just so
much wine and we were all like oh there's wine for us and there was no way to open it was this
an episode of the wine down i think they opened the wine i think they opened the wine over there
so it was like she did provide wine
like she said but then like you couldn't access it
so she took it all home
smart
here's a scam
now you can help me with this
I've been working on a
self defense
strategy class
which is
so you're not teaching self defense you're teaching the strategy behind self defense which is So you're not teaching self-defense, you're teaching the strategy
The strategy behind self-defense
Which is defending yourself
Holding a huge
magnet that is attracting
the gun
It is attracting the knife
It is
disarming the
attacker by
it is absorbing the gun and the knife to the magnet.
The magnet's huge.
This makes sense.
It's so big.
It is right now a gray Frisbee.
It's like what the actual magnet is.
Okay.
With no magnetic properties whatsoever.
Oh, okay.
So it's just literally plastic.
As of now, it's in beta.
It's in beta.
I don't know if you watch Silicon Valley, but it's in beta.
Much like Pied Piper was for, I think, seven seasons.
Are you wearing a turtleneck when you talk about it?
Because then it's going to seem more like it's in beta.
A black turtleneck.
A turtleneck a la Mort from the Bazooka Joe comics up to my nose.
So that I cannot be identified after the class.
Because people are getting shot a lot.
Because of the frisbee.
I thought that the frisbee was attracting the whole gun.
You're saying the frisbee is just supposed to attract the bullet?
And once again, the scam is working too well.
What about my belt buckle?
People have become so confident that they design a vigilante persona and go out into the night
trying to magnetize guns and knives off of various criminals and they are actually yeah getting and
this is an issue with the one real magnet that i had was it was kind of attracting my belt buckle
and i would have to like pull it back it's attracting the belt buckle. Pull it back. So I am
seeming like I'm walking around very horny.
Yeah. Okay.
The belt buckle is just kind of going in and out.
He's pulling his entire pelvis forward
and then thrusting it back away from the magnet
and then pulling it forward again. I think you might be in the
wrong business. This sounds
like a frisbee belt buckle
like, you know,
when you want to masturbate but you're in the office. It's not masturbating. I don't know. It sounds like a frisbee belt buckle, like, you know, when you want to masturbate, but you're in the office.
It's not masturbating.
I don't know.
It sounds like masturbation.
Maybe like when you're in a cubicle and you want to masturbate, but like people said you can't do that anymore.
Right.
You get out your frisbee and your belt.
Why is it be thought about that when you want to masturbate in an office?
But people said you can't do that anymore.
I take out my Frisbee.
The solution I found for the real magnet
when my belt buckle is being pulled in and out
is that I do say I'm celebrating Halloween early
and I am being quagmire.
So it's me, quagmire.
I'm saying gibbity goo.
It's very meta quagmire.
That he's talking about how he's quagmire
all the time
yeah
he does actually
kind of do that a lot
that's very true
well yeah
I think you might just be
in the wrong market
it seems like guns
aren't what this is for
maybe it's for just like
horny businessmen
oh who need a way to
like express how horny
they are
yeah
okay horny business are. Okay.
Horny businessmen.
And where do you find those people?
Yeah, where do you find a horny businessman?
At any corporate office.
At business, right?
Yeah.
Just go to the business.
At any business.
Like the office, honestly.
Think about how horny they all were
sucking and fucking in that show.
I mean, at some point, a lot of it happens off camera. I don't want to turn this into an episode of that place. Think about how horny they all were sucking and fucking in that show. I mean, at some point,
a lot of it happens off camera.
I don't want to turn this
into an episode of Office Ladies,
but another people who bumped us off the wall.
They, of course, are in a spot
that we never attained up at the top.
Not even close.
Yeah, see, I'm at the bottom.
So, you know, I've got a slow climb
to the spot I actually want.

Don't pay hundreds of dollars for private tutors or waste hours on apps
that don't really help you speak the language.
And the question that I always get, people stop me and they say like,
hey, I trust you.
I know when you endorse a product, it's something that you really use and care about.
But there's one language that I'm trying to learn, and that's body language.
Can Babbel teach me body language?
Yes.
language so can babble teach me body language yes babble now has visual in-person lessons part of their quick 10-minute lessons that they do for other languages
handcrafted by over 200 language experts to help you start speaking a new language in as little as
three weeks babble is designed by real people for real conversations and that includes body-based conversations what does it mean when you drop someone off after a nice date
and they turn around at the door and they take their little index finger
and they kind of like draw it towards them they're pulling it what does that mean does
their whole finger hurt i wonder if they spotted a spider web
or something they're trying to pull down the spider down yeah but i've seen this too after a
lot of dates and i need i need and have needed something like babble to figure out what the
heck is this person doing with their finger because it looks like a it looks like
an emergency i know i was supposed to do something or how about those people that stand in the street
they're kind of like they've got like almost like police clothes on it may be almost yeah
and they're standing in the middle and as i'm driving and i'm cruising they're holding their
hand up for like a high five almost.
And they're really aggressively pushing it out.
I'm like, am I supposed to drive by a car?
Yes.
Or just do it out the window as I'm going.
That's what I've been doing.
Dangerous.
Yeah.
But some of these very subtle body language cues have escaped me and many listeners.
I'm sure.
Babbel's tips and tools are approachable,
accessible, rooted in real life situations, which I have all the time, and delivered with conversation-based teaching so you're ready to practice what you've learned in the real world.

27 dresses from the movie 27 dresses before i found out how much it was costing yes that they
intended to send me by the way you'll this will shock you 54 dresses if i did not cancel and i you know i think also by like dress 14 15 i think it starts
to become clear like these aren't the dresses oh no they were not from the movie they didn't
resemble anything from the movie they were not they were either way too big or way too small
for a human to wear yeah and one of them was a dressing yeah
one of them was it was it was a vinaigrette it was a raspberry vinaigrette it was a french

what other scams are you doing on your show why'd you look like that what he just rolled his eyes at
me no no no no no didn't do it didn't please if if rolled my eyes at you, you'd know it.
I love you immediately defend him.
You weren't looking his direction.
You don't know if he rolled his eyes at me.
I think I know my friend.
I feel really ganged up.
A little better than you.
We're actually very close friends, and it's not uncommon to feel like a total outsider when you're on this show.
Okay, cool.
Yeah. What is a scam that is happening on the show you're interviewing other people about their scams what's another you don't talk about yours so are you asking them about theirs so i talk
about scams that are in the zeitgeist and then i talk about very famous scams and then i talk
about scammers that i really respect. A famous scam. Yeah. So
an example is like
the last episode that just aired
we talked about wags and how there are
people on wags who pretend
to be dogs and then
they like will order an appointment for you
to walk their dog and then they'll cancel
that appointment. They say I'm a dog. Yeah.
They say I'm a dog. Yeah I'm a dog
like I need to be walked. I'm sort of feeling like I don't have to poop a dog. Yeah. They say, I'm a dog. Yeah, I'm a dog. Like, I need to be walked.
I'm sort of feeling like I don't have to poop right now.
Right.
But, like, on the trip, probably.
Bring bags, you know?
Basic stuff.
Then, because they have used the app to pretend to be a dog, they can now contact you through the app.
And they contact you, and the app doesn't have any way of scrambling between
like who's customer support for the app and works for the company and who is just a dog you know
needing to get walked so then though what obviously we're talking about a person who owns a dog uh
well scammer who probably doesn't own a dog so then they call you after canceling that walk and
they're like hey um we cancel this walk uh it's us from WAGS. We need to give you $10 to reimburse you, but your bank account isn't working.
Can you send us the information again?
They're scamming the walkers.
Yeah, which I think is so fucked because the walkers probably-
They're WAG walkers.
Yeah.
If you're walking dogs on WAG, you probably need the money and don't need to have your
bank account wiped out.
Hey, I walked dogs.
I mean, no one needs to have their bank account wiped out. Yeah, I needed dogs. I mean, no one needs to have their bank account wiped out.
Yeah, I needed the money.
That's why I was doing it.
Yeah, that's how jobs work.
Dude, that was my main reason to do it.
It wasn't that you just love dogs and you love walking.
Well, I must love dogs, but I absolutely love dogs.
And you could play Frisbee with a dog and also masturbate in public.
That was a huge problem.
Mistaking the gray Frisbee for the actual metal disc magnet and throwing it for the dog
and being just basically hurtled through the air by my belt buckle after the Frisbee.
The dog is catching me out of the sky
instead of the frisbee.
In his mouth. How about this scam?
I got a scam for you.
Okay.
You're at the airplane.
Yeah. But you don't have a ticket.
Take it.
Fly the plane.
If you have the outfit.
Fly the plane. If you have the outfit. You're at you have the outfit you're at the airplane all you
need is the outfit may i see your ticket no i'm flying the plane fly the plane yeah is there
another like how would you like basically fly themselves you're at the airplane dude yes like
is that how you would do it or is there another approach you would take you have no ticket how do
you get on the plane i mean that's it i think all you
need is like a costume like scams like costumes really come into play i mean i won't lie i've
been to some very popular nightclubs and like couldn't get into vip because it was like i don't
know like nba all-star weekend or something and then you know what was next to me name the club
put them on blast um what's the club? What are you going to, One Oak?
It's like something like One Oak, but it's not open.
Club DV8?
Fuck no.
It's something that's not open anymore, but it was a popular club back in the day.
And we were young.
And you know what was next to us?
Lots of cups.
And you know what we happened to be in?
Black dresses.
So we picked up those lots of cups and we put them over our heads and we walked
into vips we were like yeah we're bottle service girls oh you were and they had tons of extra
security because it was like a very popular night so people didn't know who worked there and it's
dark and you scam them oh you know i own like several different color wristbands and I bring them with me places
to events
could also be like
costume of
like
somebody
like
Beetlejuice or something
you could say you're
Beetlejuice
yes
true
Beetlejuice would not
have done much for me
that night though
if you say it a third time
yeah
you have to get them
to say it
yeah
well
I mean at that point
You could then be the bye bye man
What
Well I'm just saying if you want to be someone
Who people aren't really going to push back
On a lot
Who they wouldn't necessarily recognize
But they've heard of them for sure
Not many people try to tangle with the bye bye man
Or with Slenderman
Okay I've never heard with the bye-bye man or with slender man okay i've
never heard of the bye-bye man what yeah i mean i can get from the name i can pretty much like
discern what the bye-bye man is like maybe a murderer i'm guessing like you go bye-bye when
the bye-bye man comes bye-bye oh he just like says bye- like that it's absolutely the goose pimples
that I mentioned getting when I first walk
into these
what is this goose pimple thing
pimple makes me think there's like pus involved
when I get the chicken flesh
there's a lot of pus
turkey bumps
I feel like it's just so harder to say goose
like goose bumps feel like
kind of like the sexier of the scary yeah for me it's just so hotter to say goose like goosebumps feel like oh like kind of like the sexier uh of
the of the scary yeah for me it's not sexual okay i mean i could see that i don't know like
i watch there's a woman in a white t-shirt running away and somehow it starts raining
and she has goosebumps and it's very sexual. Okay. Those are nipples.
Brett?
I think those are two different things.
Brett?
It's 2019.
We all have nipples.
We don't say nipples anymore.
What do we say?
We all have nipples. We call them goosebumps now?
They're called goose pimples.
That's so not hot.
God. Help me with a so not hot. God.
Help me with a scam, please.
Yeah.
I'm trying to watch Blackadder on Hulu.
Uh-huh.
Okay.
Starring Mr. Bean, but the smart version of him.
Mr. Bean, but he's talking.
I don't have Hulu.
How do I get Hulu?
What's the fastest way that you'd scam me to get Hulu?
Scam me into Blackadder, please.
Marathon style.
I mean, you find someone who has Hulu and then you get their Hulu.
I don't have time.
I can't.
Okay.
I feel like if you tweeted that you want someone's Hulu login, you would get so many Hulu logins.
Okay.
I'm not even kidding.
People would give you their Hulu login just to know that you're watching their Hulu and then see what you're watching.
Because you can make their little page different.
Also, if you threaten to quit Hulu, everyone go out and try to cancel your Hulu.
Because if you do, they'll give you half off for three months.
Wow.
Go fake cancel your Hulu.
Wow.
Okay.
There's no computer.
How do I watch it without a computer?
Or like, what do I, how do I see it?
I mean, that's not a problem.
You know, there's computers out here that don't belong to you.
And you have one of those.
You just have one of those.
Just have a computer that doesn't belong to me.
Where do you find them mostly?
Anywhere and everywhere.
You know what I mean?
There's computers all over the place.
Yeah.
You have to truly just be opportunistic about where you have a computer.
Speaking of computers, Scam, I'm doing a website, bugsite.com, that collects pictures of sexy bugs.
Okay.
I'm into it.
Users can upload whatever they want.
I'm then, of course, selling these bugs to other bugs.
Okay.
Okay.
What is money for bugs?
Ooh, money for bugs is like stale Doritos.
Doritos?
Okay, that checks out.
That's what I've been finding.
Yes, that's mostly what I've been getting.
I got lucky that this guy didn't scam me, an apartment guy.
When I was first moving to LA,
which I was riddled with desperation to find a home for my body,
just to put a roof and then put my body underneath.
Yeah, so tough to find a place to put your body, like just to like put a roof, like, and then like put my body underneath.
Yeah.
So tough to find a place to put your body at times.
Every night you need to store your body somewhere.
Every single night. And it's expensive to store your body every night.
Like,
so I was looking for like,
you know,
four walls and a roof.
And I went to this apartment and like the price was great.
And it was like two bedroom and it's in Hollywood.
And I was like,
this is so awesome.
And he gives me this paperwork and he's like okay you have to sign this
bed bug paperwork
I have a cashier strike I'm like ready to close
and I was like bed bugs oh okay
and it's just like oh if you bring them you're kind of
liable for their extermination
and I was like okay that makes sense like whatever
then I was like are there any other bugs
here and he was like oh no
what do you mean by other
bugs and I was like is this okay Kevin What do you mean by other blokes? And I was like... Is this okay?
Kevin, is that okay? Kevin, can we
do that sort of impression?
I'd also like to say that I'm
black, so I'm
oppressed, so I do whatever
impersonations I want. Okay, I just
don't think I want to know exactly
what this guy is. And I definitely don't want to be
scammed in this way. Being black is a scam
and it's also
a scam that you can run.
It's just not as beneficial
to run it as a scam.
It just itself is a scam.
Okay.
Yeah.
Okay.
Yeah.
Okay.
I'm learning.
Continue.
Yeah.
We often talk about
Lean into it more if you want.
I will.
We talk about how like
there's a joke about like
Jim Crow and how when colored people had to go to water fountains that were different colored people.
Oh, God, I'm black. We don't say color.
Is that OK?
I can say whatever I want.
Don't join in, but I'll say whatever I want.
I'm not talking for another half an hour.
they talk about how like when they desegregated water fountains someone was like man some guy just lost half his business because he was making white ones and black ones and now he's only making
one water fountain because you don't need to um and also what about the guy who made all the
placards um you know i'm gonna get canceled who we? so you say we talk about this oh like black people
my black friends
it's not like we're like man we feel for that guy
we don't we don't feel for that guy
but it is funny to think about how
things affect other things
but anyway being black is a scam
that white people created
it is
you know what I mean it comes with lots of it's very slippery you know what I mean that white people created. It is.
You know what I mean?
It comes with lots of,
it's very slippery.
You know what I mean?
Like, black people are weird.
I feel like that's why we don't rock climb and stuff.
We all,
everyone's made this joke.
Kevin, is this okay?
Being black is exciting.
Being black is very thrilling.
I leave my house every day
and I'm like,
will I come back?
Just because I'm black.
That's funny,
but it's also true and sad.
Anyway, there was a point to this
this guy was talking to you
the landlord with the accent
that I won't do but you will
and also I'm not trying to tell you where the accent's from
so can it be that racist
because it's like doing general
you know how people do general
in those movies, the time period movies
everyone's like kind of british
but like no really and it's like we're in greece like it's like that right it's not it doesn't
sound exactly like that i feel like it's like that i feel like i'm doing the same thing uh
yeah i feel like if the guy turns it turns out is british then maybe it's okay then yeah then it's just a very bad
job at a British accent but I've heard you do a
British accent now so I can't
anyway well so this is not British
though everyone guess
do you want to guess I mean I it's
just
like a low upside
I do have a guess, though.
Even if I'm right, yeah.
I want to know your guess when we get off the air.
Okay, when we guess.
Okay, so yeah, he's like, oh, there are bugs.
And I was like, oh, bugs.
I was like, what kind of bugs?
And he was like, oh, well, there are roaches.
And I was like, what do you mean there are roaches?
And he was like, I mean, there are roaches.
And I was like, are there roaches in the building? He was like I mean there are roaches and I was like are there roaches like in the building
he was like yes of course every building in Hollywood
has roaches and I was like
what and I was like okay
like I didn't see any like droppings or
like anything I opened all the cabinets that's what you're
supposed to do when you go in an apartment you're supposed to open all the cabinets
really smell see if they've
roach bombed anything
and then like he was like oh no
when you have house clean, no roaches.
But when you leave crumb,
roaches will come.
One crumb.
One crumb, he said.
And then the roaches would descend upon the apartment.
So I didn't take that apartment.
But that being said,
Dorito crumbs.
Those are bug food.
That's bug money.
Oh wait, no, you said bug food.
Yeah, and food is sometimes money.
Currency can be anything.
It's bug money.
Chocolate coins, Brett said.
And Brett found a way to solve the puzzle.
Solve it all.
So, okay.
So, food is bug money.
Well, is there anything...
That clears up my website problem.
You're selling bugs to other bugs?
Pictures of them, yes.
Oh, pictures.
Did you do like Facebook?
Like, did you have the bugs sign away the rights to the photos when they upload the photos?
Absolutely.
Yeah.
There's a whole user agreement that they never read the fine print on.
Okay, tight.
Yeah.
And I'm allowed to be friends with the bugs.
That's also in the user agreement?
That's also in the user agreement?
A lot of the agreement
is that we actually
are good friends.
And so they sign the site
and say...
I'm one of their best friends.
One of their best friends.
Yes.
And if there's something
like I'm having
like a big event
or a birthday party
or fundraiser
that the bugs
do have to show up and they do have to
put a smile on their face. And they have to
give to the GoFundMe as well?
Yeah.
That's also another great scam.
GoFundMe?
GoFundMe's for web series.
That is smart because
who's ever going to check to watch the web series?
No one's going to watch your web series!
Because nobody fucking wants to so and but we ease our guilt by paying to the go from
me i'm like look i'm never gonna watch this but here's 20 bucks right yeah people can keep all
the money you never have to make it and you can say like they'll get a poster or something
the last thing they want in the world. Nobody wants a poster of your fucking web series.
I gave $20. I'm just wondering when I'm going to get my
poster. Where exactly is the poster?
Gross, too. Like, oh, the poster is
the top of some orange pubes.
Do you want it? Just the top.
And if you get it, I want to see
it in your house. When I come to
your place, it better be hanging up. You can have
access to our dailies.
You can hear all of our audio.
We're going to send you all of the sound.
Hollywood Handbook.
Well, there's a reason they call me the March Maniac.
I get maniacal around this time of year because March Mania is happening and DraftKings Sportsbook,
one of America's top rated sportsbook apps, is giving new customers and maniacs like me
a shot to turn five bucks into $150 instantly in bonus bets with any college basketball bet.
Those maniacs are even more maniacal than me, the March maniac. And during
March mania, I get a little maniacal. And let me tell you something. The best bet that I'm seeing
on the board is one that will already have happened by the time you hear this ad. That's
right. I'm here to give you a non-specific line
from a college basketball tournament game,
which you will not be able to bet on
because the college basketball tournament games
that are going to happen after you hear the ad
do not have lines up yet.
I have to give you a line specifically from today.
That's how the lines work.
Today, there are two games taking place, both of which
you will not be allowed to wager on. They will already have happened. San Diego State Aztecs
are favored over Boise State. Oh, mama. Hey, I wonder if their basketball court is blue like
their football field. Sports facts. That's the March Maniac for you. Also, the Dayton, Ohio Flyers, our favorite over VCU.
Hey, you know what?
I'm going to go double underdog on that one because I'm a maniac.
Okay, have fun seeing the games or checking up on the scores of whether I hit my bet that you could not participate in.

laundromat seemed to find it pretty humorous
when my leg started spinning around and flipping me over
what happened was i was holding my laundry basket with both hands and i saw oh still a sock left in
the dryer so i stuck my foot and tried to pick it up with my little toesies i wear sandals, punk, and as I'm picking it up, I just sort of tripped, and my foot got wedged in between.
There's like slats in there, and it's stuck inside there, and then I don't know who, somebody pushed the button or what,
but it turned on, and the thing starts flipping over, and I'm flying in circles.

like always perpetrating scams yeah but also you can get over on the government because you have
to remember only in certain ways like i don't fuck with the irs because eventually they will
put you in jail okay but there are other agencies that i will fuck with because of the people who
work there fda yeah Yeah. DMV.

Free headshots.
And nobody questions you for being there.
No one questions you for being there.
It's a one-stop shop.
Or being there for a long time.
Just bring a piece of your mail.
If anybody else going, yeah, no.
Proof of residence.
A piece of mail at people.
Yeah, I forgot this last time.
The way you can scan the FDA, I found, is they can't eat the food that you are bringing in to sell.
So you go and like, I have this food.
I'm going to sell this food.
They can smell it.
They can look at it.
But they can't eat it.
Because you have to be able to take it out with you.
Because then there won't be food anymore.
So all you have to do is make sure it smells okay.
Yeah.
And they have to stamp it and be like, yes, this is fine.
So if I were to bring in styrofoam, but I cover it with a really good cheese sauce or something.
Yes, yes.
Perfect example.
Then the FDA would be like, this smells good.
I have it in very clean containers. It looks good. Yes, yeah. Perfect example. Then the FDA would be like, this smells good. I have it in like very clean containers.
It looks good.
Yes, yeah.
And then you can reuse
the container.
Yeah.
After you sell it.
And if you brought that in
and you said,
this is Power Cake.
It gives you special powers.
Can I,
can I sell this Power Cake
for a billion bucks?
And then it makes kids able
to fly through walls
or whatever
right
yes
then you come back here
they have to at least
approve a trial
and then Brett
like once he eats it
and is like
okay there's only cheese
on the outside of this
there's no cake
on the inside
it's foam
it's too
like he has no grounds
at that point
no grounds
because
there's no legal grounds because the FDA has stamped it.
So the FDA is letting us eat guinea pigs.
Stamped it and he's eating it.
So the FDA, which makes sense because FDA is constantly recalling things like, hey, we let you eat this and turns out you died.
But yeah, but it's like it's too late.
I'm going to die from it?
Like we ate it already.
The way you eat it?
You can't recall?
Yeah, but we stopped everyone else from eating it.
Yeah, you died, but everyone
else didn't die because we stopped it
from happening after you died. The FDA can't
unstamp it, you know what I mean? Yes.
They're not going to go through Brett's innards.
They don't? Oh, yeah.
Please. Disgusting.
No, and Brett, you will die.
Brett's innards might be clean.
Thank you. Not anymore. Firstgusting. No. And Brett, you will die. Breaths and nerds might be clean. Thank you.
Not anymore.
You drop one crumb.
Not after a slice of power cake this big.
It's gonna wreck you.
It looks clean right now, but if one crumb
falls in breaths and nerds,
then the bugs convert.
Then the bugs all join in there.
And that's like a contractual thing that like the bugs
that Sean has uploading, they live in Brett.
Some of my bug friends from bug site probably are residing in Brett right now.
Just statistically.
It makes Earwolf kind of a one-stop shop because they can come here,
buy nudes,
be friends with Sean,
and then...
Bug nudes specifically,
not like other nudes.
No, no, no.
And the equivalent of the chips
that Earwolf gives out
is the crumbs in Brett's innards.
That's right.
Great.
That they can converge on.
Tight.
Yeah, the photos are all of that moment right before's right great that they can converge on tight yeah the
photos are all of that moment right before they fly but they've opened their whole shell to like
reveal the underneath part but they haven't started flying yet you know what i mean when
bugs do that you know those hot yeah is that hot that's the nudes i feel like if that was like a
human nude that would be like the inside of the shaft of a penis
okay I don't know if that's the part
that people are interested in
after no it's a part right
before right when the penis is
kind of like unfurling
itself
before
it like real like is
fully like flying
okay so yeah yeah I don't know if I want to look at that right when the flaps are starting to like Before it like real, like is fully. Before it starts like flying. Okay. So yeah.
Yeah.
I don't know if I want to look at that.
Right when the flaps are starting to like come loose.
I feel like that's not what people are looking.
People are looking for like external, like I want to see the ant's butt.
Like, you know, ants have like, honestly, Instagram models are shaped just like ants.
Like they have the big.
Seems like she might be in the market for some of these pics.
She just said she wants to see an ant's butt.
Oh.
Actually, thanks.
Yeah, I do have that.
Have you ever looked at an ant's butt and then looked at Kim Kardashian?
And then look at them and they have shape.
Don't ants have three butts?
Wow. She might pay three butts? Wow.
They pay three times as much.
I'll have to triple the fee.
Make the same.
Yeah, they do have three butts
and I got photos of all of them.
Okay.
I'm interested.
I know you are.
I heard you say that.
I can hear you.
Okay. All right. She's listening in say that. I can hear you. Okay.
All right.
She's listening in.
She's eavesdropping.
Okay.
It's not called eavesdropping when we're face-to-face and we're talking to one another.
You just kind of turned catty-cornered to me, but you're still talking, and I'm still here.
Are we going to close the deal?
I mean, like, how much?
Now I'm afraid she's talking to me.
I am talking to you. Okay. me. I am talking to you.
Okay.
Sean, I'm talking to you.
Uh-huh.
So, did you say how much?
Yes, I did.
I asked how much.
You're a very shy business person.
What's something that you need right now?
Just say what you need and we'll give that to you.
Are you guys selling something or no? Because it seems
like there's a lot of hesitation.
There's a lot of nerves. Two congrats on the successful
scam goddess launch signs.
I own those.
I won't negotiate.
I own those signs.
But that's what he's saying.
He wants to buy them. I want to trade
them. Oh, you want to trade them.
Yeah, you want to see these freaking ant butts?
You're going to have to pay through the nose and scam goddess signs.
Honestly, ant butts aren't enough for the signs.
How about ant butts?
Okay, well, I'm willing to negotiate.
How about ant butts and the Hollywood handbooks sign
and the cold brew machine that it's behind?
I don't know if I'm authorized to do that.
Do you have any more pictures of bees, goose pimples?
I do have a bee with goose pimples, yeah.
It's not a bee, it's a wasp.
That's honestly better.
Whoa!
Yeah, everyone has their preference.
I'm not a bee person.
Too small.
And there is no kink shaming in this studio.
Yeah.
Plus can't wasps live after they sting you?
Can wasps live?
Can wasps live?
Can they live, please?
Can wasps live?
Yeah. they can.
That's hot.
Because the bee dies, and then that's uncomfortable.
That sucks, yeah.
Yeah, but the wasp lives, and then the bee.
Yes, the wasp in these pictures is dead.
Oh, okay.
It's a dead wasp.
I don't want to look at dead wasp porn.
But it's from dead wasp. I don't want to look at dead wasp porn. But it's from totally other reasons.
I don't want to look at a dead wasp for sexual pleasure.
It has to be alive.
It was poisoned.
Yeah.
And the bee dying is not part of it for me.
I don't know if these bugs like you that much, if you're like selling their.
Well, why don't you read the user agreement and find out?
There's not really a lot of room
for interpretation there. I heard you
wrote it yourself, which
I'm pretty sure is not legally binding.
And they signed it. I don't think that's
how laws work. Oh,
really? Yeah. So nobody wrote
them. Are you a lawyer?
No, you're not. My wife's a lawyer.
Your wife's my lawyer.
That's right. But that doesn't mean... But she's not appeared. You're my wife's lawyer. That's right.
But she's not here.
So I don't know.
It's helpful for people to know like, oh, how'd they get Lacey on this show?
Okay.
That's not how I got on this show.
Professional obligation.
I heard you guys wanted to fight me.
I heard you wanted to fight me.
I don't remember saying that.
That's how we get a lot of people to come on the show. Four grown men wanted to fight me. And don't remember saying that. Four grown men. That's how we get a lot of people to come on the show.
Four grown men wanted to fight me
and I said, that's fine. I'll fight anybody.
Well, let's just do a podcast first and then
we can fight afterwards. Yeah, and we'll fight after
the podcast if we still feel
like it. Thank you for calling me grown. The Earwolf
Fight Club. Yeah, you're very grown, right? Thank you.
And you're super grown.
Yeah, my innards are clean.
Very clean. Spotless, some would say.
There's like Clorox clean.
And then there's like Brett's innards clean.
Scraped clean.
And the bugs.
But yeah, no, I was told I would come here.
I would have some lace and a knockoff LaCroix called Bubbly.
Yep.
And then we would fight.
Brett has pulled up a picture
of a huge
ant's butt. Is that a
boil though or is that a butt?
I thought the butt was like
the color's weird.
It's full of honey
it looks like. That ant
has been eating so much honey
and the ant's friends with a bee, obviously.
To have access to honey like that.
I feel weird about this ant.
Brett is taking a picture of his computer screen.
Is this ant sick?
Are you showing me a sick ant?
This ant's sick as hell.
Sick like S-I-C-C?
The ant's sick and thick.
It's actually a very good ant And it's worth a lot
You've already showed it to me
Fuck Brett what did you do
You're supposed to like
That was the whole allure
Is that I didn't see the photos
And I was willing to bargain
But now you've like
Yeah
I've seen it
I got my eye high
Straight into the bank
Well I obviously got scammed
Click
I've obviously been scammed. Click.
I've obviously been scammed.
Yeah.
Thank you.
That was my whole point.
I wanted you to pull it up.
Who's coming on the show next?
Yeah, who else coming?
Nicole Byer's coming next.
Okay.
Yeah. You mentioned her as someone who's been on already, I thought.
Oh, no.
Who's coming after that?
Oh, I've recorded 14 episodes already.
So.
Okay.
That's a scam.
You're done. No, no. That's a already. Okay. So you're done.
No, no.
There's 38 more.
But the scam is that they can't be evergreen.
They have to be evergreen because I have to leave town.
Tell me about Flo Rida, girls.
Yeah.
What's your favorite track?
From Flo Rida?
Yeah.
I mean, I'm very partial to Apple Bottom Jeans, Boots With The Furs.
And I know that's some of his most popular work, but I honestly think it's some of his most impactful.
Yeah, often there's a reason.
I've never felt more seen.
I had Boots With The Furs.
I had Apple Bottom Jeans because I had an Apple Bottom.
And my bottom fit in those jeans.
The whole premise of those jeans is like
you have a big butt and then you have a small waist
and so they make the waist small,
but they make the butt big.
Did he ever stop by set at all?
No, and that was honestly unfortunate.
We wanted to see him.
One of our cast members, Melanie,
didn't even understand that Flo Rida
was spelled like Florida
and it completely blew her mind
when we told her that.
It was like a huge revelation.
She cried.
Will the Florida girls be becoming a god, which I have heard this is happening.
In that same general region.
Oh, in Central Florida.
Or in your case, I mean, I guess you did become the scam goddess.
Yeah, I did.
But I didn't become the scam goddess in Florida.
I became the scam goddess in the birth of most scams.
Brooklyn,
New York.
Oh.
What a scam town.
The hottest scams
are coming out of Brooklyn.
Always and forever.
And I'm not even kidding.
Like,
they're innovators.
I like,
Silicon Valley for scams
is Brooklyn.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
The water's different there.
Yeah,
it truly is. The bagels. The bagels. The water they put in the scams is Brooklyn. The water's different there. Yeah, it truly is.
The bagels. The water
they put in the scams
makes it different. Who just texted you?
Who texted you? Wow.
I see you reading texts. And say the truth.
First of all, I didn't touch my phone.
I didn't touch my phone.
Nobody accused you of that.
I feel like Tana's phone shamed me several times.
It is face up.
The phone is face up. Okay, you know what? Your phone is face down. So that's fair. I feel like Tana's phone shamed me several times. I took one tiny... It is face up. The phone is face up.
Okay, you know what?
Your phone is face down, so that's fair.
I can put my phone face down.
Respect.
It was just sitting there.
I did not read anything.
Who texted you?
And say the truth.
And you must say the truth.
I am getting ambushed on this show so much.
And this is going to make for one hell of an article.
This says... It says mom and the mom just got home from my date with my girlfriend and my boyfriend because i'm by aunt polly um
which are those are fun things i mean once my mom did say
something that was interesting that i was like hmm me too she just told me that happened to me
as well dude my mom had me like
you guys are trolling me so hard we're shit shitposting. I've never been trolled.
I'm literally in person getting shitposted.
We're shitposting online.
I didn't even know you could do this in person.
That's all we do.
My whole personality is shitposting.
Who is the text being sent by to you?
It's some text and some Instagram notifications.
That's all. And i only know that because
like one is green and one is purple and pink i haven't read them and no sender on the text
you actually know the sender oh yeah return to sender well if we know them. I know them. Okay. Yeah. So let's figure out who it is.
Someone who is not that famous.
If I know them, they're not doing great.
Quite frankly.
They're specifically knowing you?
Do I need to stop knowing you?
When you get, when you achieve.
Is that how I'll do better?
Look, you're on a rocket ship to fame.
When you reach your destination, you will no longer know me.
I've seen it a thousand times before.
And God bless my former friends.
How do I do it?
Like, do I need to call you?
No, that's an opposite of what you need to do.
I will always know you.
You're married to my lawyer.
Yeah. Well, no, but you don't I will always know you. You're married to my lawyer. Yeah.
Well, no, but you don't
necessarily have to know me.
You'll be like,
oh yeah, I knew him.
You know me now.
I just have to start.
I knew him.
I just have to start
like in past tense.
I have to start bringing up
everything that we do
in past tense.
That would help.
Like even right now,
I'm like, yeah,
I was on his podcast once.
The text is from someone who either has a podcast or has been on 300 episodes hell yeah the name's on
this table the name is on this table so i knew that and this is the blood and blood out gang
gang table when you sign your name to the table it says that you will choke anybody out with a
pair of earwolf headphones upon ass like when you when you're ass, you go to war. Shouldn't even have to ask.
Truly. I'd take a bullet for Colin
Anderson. Who wouldn't?
Is it Colin? Who wouldn't?
Is Colin texting you? Colin text you?
No, I wish. I get
emails from Colin.
I remember those days.
You know what? You guys are
legendary status, okay?
Who is that text from?
Who's the sender?
If you read all the names on this table, you'll get it.
Okay.
Comedy Bang Bang?
The text is not from Comedy Bang Bang.
That was a really good guess, though, Brett.
Thanks.
That was good.
It's the first name I saw on the table. Truly a good guess.
That was really smart. Wait, is this
you? No.
You don't know how to do block letters?
Then what Sean is this? Please, I wish.
What Sean is that?
Sean Conroy or some shit.
You're not so
happy about that. Who's on your hat?
Sean got it for me
It's a street light
I like it
You know what?
Scam pisses me off for real
Yeah
Bye
Hollywood Handbook
That was a HeadGum Podcast
