Why won't you date me?
Please tell me why!
Hello baby, welcome to another episode of Why Won't You Date Me? Podcast where me, Nicole Byer, tries to figure out how I'm still single.
Even though you could take me for a walk and push me into oncoming traffic, I would say, wow, that was a close one. I still love you.
I have siblings on the podcast today. One is a Grammy Award winning singer-songwriter. The other is a video game
live streamer.
They are best friends
and together they co-host
the new podcast.

Have either one of you ever like had to go on a date like on camera?
Nah.
I mean, I've gotten reached out by like some shitty reality TV shows.
More recently,
probably Ex on the Beach.
I think they wanted me

I'd pull up as...
Yes, we have friends

Yes.
So I've dated like Lexi
off and on
and she wanted me to like,
you wash up ashore
and you're like,
I'm the ex and I'm pulling up the beat, like something ridiculous.
But no, I never had to do that.
I was close though because I felt like you, I was like, why won't anyone date me?
And I would ask him, I was like, am I threatening?
Like, do I give off a vibe of like, don't touch me?
Don't talk to me?
Yeah, you're a scary person, dude.
And you're intense.
You're just a powerful woman.
But I was like, in my prime, like just in a grammy and i was like gorgeous as hell and i was like i finally know that makeup goes on my
eyebrows like i'm my prettiest like why doesn't every guy jump on me i couldn't even get like
hookups like it was oh my god it was a long i feel like well you didn't commit to like the apps i
feel like if you did one of the stupid i was on Raya and all those apps. But you didn't really commit to it though, bro. Because I also like
I got matched up with
the hot tub time machine guy.
Oh, I remember, dude. I was hyped.
I know, I love him, but like these are
the guys that are matching me with and I was like,
okay, cool. There's a lot
of gentlemen hot tub time machine. You don't
have to name names, but that's not your type.
You know which one. I think I i do i did the celebrity dating game and people keep being like how was
your date and i was like do you not know how television works there was no date also yeah
they're all fake kind of you know it's bullshit yeah but i don't think i could ever do that dating
i i watched uh the first season of are you the one and then i watched
well it's not hot what is it it was like on um netflix where they tricked everyone they're like
you're gonna have a vacation with a bunch of hotties and then they're like actually you can't

each other oh you walked in on me and
daryl watching that yeah because i love garbage like that i loved it oh my god i loved it and
they were like extra slutty i love it too i love hot idiots yeah dude i love them and i love how
they were hot they were all being extra whorish too like they're all getting on top of each other
and i was like yeah they know the game they know and then they're like what we're not allowed to touch you know I would be so mad if I was a hot dummy who was like all
right I'm gonna fucking Mexico or wherever and I'm gonna fuck and then they're like actually
no I would be devastated I mean I couldn't do it yeah I'd be upset so megan you are in a relationship and ryan you are single single
yeah yes i am are you looking to mingle or are you like on a self-care self-discovery journey
yeah yeah i'm i'm on a self-discovery journey because i mean for the past decade i was not i
feel like i never took care of myself once so now I'm finally like you know what
let me figure out my shit first and then I can go back out there so this is yeah so I'm pretty bored
but I feel better mentally this is it's a good it's a good 180 I think it was necessary it's
time I got to grow up you know I'm like 28 I'll be 29 December so i'm trying to snap into i gotta be an adult he's recently sober
oh congratulations i love to hear it love it and so he like partied all his life and then
would like always have hookups and like some would some would last longer than others but
he's never really had a real relationship since like high school oh what do you do you know what you're like looking for
nah great question uh nah i don't know not really he's it's weird too because he sees
daryl and i and we're like we like breathe in each other's air like we're very close
you guys are so that's you guys are maniacs like that is not chill for a lot of... It's way too much.
I need my personal space.
You guys are weirdos, bro.
I tickle him at night.
Wait, Ryan, explain this a little further.
What do you mean by weirdos?
They poop together.
She's pooping, and Daryl's like,
I'm going to go hang out with you now,
even if we're in the green room at a fucking award show.
He's like, I'm going to go hang out with you while you poop.
Bro, you are crazy people.
Megan, you're taking dumps before award shows in a dress?
Bro, I was like, also, I can't poop in public.
Yeah, you do, bro.
I can only poop in public if Daryl's with me and he's blocking the door.
Bro, it's weird.
It's too much.
We do have, and we just got a new house and we did construction.
Nobody knows us.
But in our bathroom, there was one toilet.
And a lot of times in the middle of the night when we're with the baby,
like we got to pee at the same time.
So I was like, can we please have two toilets next to each other?
So we.
No, I'm telling you.
It is insanity.
That's an exclusive.
Wait a minute.
We got two toilets sitting next to each other.
And we've only pooped together twice you looked at a contractor
another adult in the face and you said we need a bathroom with two toilets next to each other
and that adult said okay he laughed and thought i was joking and i was like no i'm not joking and
then he did it i'm telling you man they're at an extreme, which is cool.
That's their thing.
It's just like, nah.
I'm shook and floored.
And both of you are trying to move on rather quick.
And I'm still stuck.
How far apart are these two said toilets?
No, like next to each other.
Like closer than we are now.
They're fucking right there, dude.
And do you use them together?
Often.
Often.
Yes, we pee at the same time a lot.
I can't be near him when he poops because his poops smell foul.
Okay.
And I can't handle it, even if we have poopery.
And a lot of times he forgets to do the poopery.
But when I'm pooping, I encourage him, come on in.
You encourage this? Look at this one. Yes, because I'm like. Look the poopery. But when I'm pooping, I encourage him, come on in. You encourage this?
Yes.
Look at this one.
Because I don't poop.
I didn't have a good poop life before.
Okay.
And now we're learning about nutrition and I'm seeing my poops are great now and healthy
and every day.
Okay.
And I'll look at him and I'll be like, Daryl, do you see this massive thing that came out
of me?
It took us a while to get there.
At first we were. How long?
A year.
That's not that long.
What?
You are a liar.
You are a liar.
No, on tour.
Because we started dating and I went on tour and I flew him out and he was with us.
We met through Chloe Moretz, an actress.
She went on a double date.
She set us up and like day six we were like, I love you.
On day six, you said I love you.
Yeah.
So walk me through this.
So you went on a date.
And then how many dates was it to date six?
So we went on a bowling date.
And we hooked up night one.
It was excellent.
And I was like, wow, he's in love with me.
And then like two
days after that we saw each other again with chloe on another date and then he would just come i was
staying at a hotel and he would just come to my hotel like every night and then by day six we like
knew all about each other and and we went on a date with chloe and i went to the bathroom and
she told tells daryl she's like, do you love her?
And he's like, yeah, but don't fucking tell her.
Like, what are you, 19?
And then, because she was 19.
And then he went to the bathroom and she told me, like, do you love him?
And I was like, yeah, but don't say anything.
And basically she spoiled it.
So then we went back to the hotel and I was like, I know how you feel about me.
Just say it.
Because I'm 12.
Oh, my God.
Six.
That's incredible.
That's so wild.
I mean.
What am I doing wrong?
No, no.
No.
We're weird.
We're weird.
We're weird.
We're weird.
We're weird.
We're weird.
We're weird.
Special case.
Aliens.
Aliens.
No, like, all.
Out of this world.
None of it makes sense.
It's too much.
All my friends are single
and I'm like the only one with a baby.
Like I'm way past everything
because I found this person that I'm like,
we need to get married because I worship you.
Wow, that's truly incredible.
I'm so single it fucking hurts.
I bought a Sibion machine.
Do you know what that is?
Oh, hell yeah.
You know what a Sibion,
oh, you ride that thing, girl.
Yeah, let's go.
Is it like a saddle?
I mean, more or less,
it's like this hump
and then a fucking dick
sticks out of it
and then it wiggles around
and it is rather intense.
It's a little too much.
I mean...
Yeah, so Howard Stern
used to have those things
on his show all the time.
That's like...
When I was like 13,
I was like trying to stay up late and I was like I gotta see the Sibian Rides wait Howard Stern would put the Sibian Rides on television I mean yes and yeah on radio I mean
yeah but it was it was filmed like I'm pretty sure Carmen Electra hopped on one of those and
it like wow world like they would obviously get off before it got out of control but it would always get pretty
close it'd get pretty close oh boy yeah it's quite the machine everyone i thought i would
say something was too intense it's too intense and it's now just in my closet giggling at me
i do want to tell you that like um i used to think too like because i was so single that I'm just going to settle for, like, a shitty guy and I'll try to fix him.
And then, you know, I'll always hate these things about him.
But there is someone out there for you that, like, will, I don't know, that is, that will worship the ground, like, that will worship you.
You know this?
Where?
I know this.
Where?
I don't know where. But I also said to the universe, I was manifesting him, I believe, because I was like, he's being
a silly boy.
He's just making mistakes somewhere else.
Like, I would talk as if he was already here.
Uh-huh.
And then it worked.
And everyone told me, like, oh, my God, just stop thinking about it, and then it'll just
naturally happen.
No.
No, ma'am.
Okay.
I begged every day, and I got him.
So you guys are married married like you had
a wedding yes we had a wedding and shit on my birthday because that's how we do it on your
birthday wow i mean yeah you'll never fucking forget your wedding anniversary there's too many
dates i have to remember so this one's great so how long from the first date to marriage? It's like two years, I think.
Oh, okay.
But we were like, we waited.
Oh, yeah.
We got engaged like a year and a half in.
I don't know.
Okay.
I was like, how long do I have to wait
until everyone doesn't judge us that we're engaged at a younger age?
That's how we, like I would beg my mom,
like, can he propose to me yet?
And then how long did construction take on your house?
We were in one house, and then we bought this one recently in November,
and then we did construction this whole time,
and now we're just finally getting in.
Dang.
Dang, that's a long fucking time.
That's a long-ass time.
It's a mission, yeah.
Wow.
It was an old, spooky house, though, so we had to, like, clean it up. It's taking long fucking time. That's a long ass time. It's a mission, yeah. Wow. It was an old spooky house though,
so we had to like clean it up.
It's taking longer for your house to be finished
than it took for you guys to say I love you.
And honestly, that's wild.
I mean, they got those toilets though.
Like they're fine.
As long as I got those toilets.
So Ryan sees our relationship and he's like,
eek, that's a lot.
It's too much.
But like there's something for you out there.
The best part about my relationship is that
Daryl makes, he tries to
I don't know, he
cares so much about
me, my well-being, my emotional
state, my physical,
everything. And he just wants to do anything he can to
make me better. Right. And to make my life
easier. That's really
sweet. You know what i mean and when
like and i was like ryan you could have a a soldier like a partner like high-fiving you
and encouraging you to stay sober yeah no i get it i get it i'm just not in a rush you know i'm
just kind of doing my own thing i i feel like you have this idea because the first person that comes
in if they're not that like bye bitch yeah ryan what's your type what are you looking for because
the people will slide into your dms from this i hate to tell you it will happen it happens to all
of my male guests ladies not so much but you know whatever so yeah what are you looking for who
should be sliding no i like i like them all i like them all really um i just i guess now i'm looking
for different things.
I guess I kind of liked a party girl.
I could do some partying, but not all the time.
I think that's changed for me.
Okay.
I got to get some outdoor stuff in.
Okay.
She's got to love dogs.
I could do some hikes.
Cute.
You don't like to do hikes?
No, I'm not hiking.
There's insides for a reason.
Also, I mean, I guess the view is nice, but I'm not.
I'm not here for a hike.
I have to find some sober hobbies.
I'm trying to get back into surfing.
A surfer babe, that could be dope.
That could be dope.
She might have a six pack, but we're into it.
Yeah, you want her to have a six pack
because then she's got a strong core
that's a little too aggressive
I don't know if I'm into the six packs
you're into a six pack?
I mean I don't even have a six pack
I pictured like a blonde
like sand girl covered in sand
with a six pack
I love it just covered in sand at all times.
It's like, are you well?
Do you shower?
Yeah.
Okay.
I'm all over the place, though.
I don't know.
Again, focused on myself.
I got to figure out.
It's hard, too, because dating out here in California, what I've seen, it's like all
the girls, even his age, you're 28 now, they're like, let's go to this club and like see wiz khalifa or like i mean there's
definitely some girls that are like lost and like they're still doing that shit like going to the
tiktok parties and shit and i'm like yo you're almost 30 like what are you doing but there's
obviously some women out there that don't do that i just i just gotta get out there and like try and
find them but right now i'm just really not i'm just like i'm training for the new york city
marathon all i do is all i do is run and game pretty much that's it i'm just i'm just like i'm training for the new york city marathon all i do is all i do is run and
game pretty much that's it i'm just i'm just running from his demons yeah why run uh okay
26 miles yeah running's been the best thing for me. Again, yeah, like Megan said, I'm running from demons. I'm running from, like, all my stress.
You know what I'm saying?
It clears my mind.
I do feel better, but I also feel exhausted.
Like, this past week, I've been, like, pretty much a dead man
because I ran 17 miles last Saturday.
I definitely feel that.
But it's been so good because him and my younger brother,
they'll stay up all night long, and then they'll sleep in all day because they have nothing to do.
I mean, we don't do that a lot during quarantine.
Yeah, quarantine.
So now he's like getting up at eight or 5 a.m. even to run.
I'm getting up at like 5 a.m.
And like we're up with a baby.
So we're like, howdy neighbor.
Like we're like somebody else.
How old is your baby?
My baby is seven months now.
Wow. So still a baby. Still My baby is seven months now. Wow.
So still a baby.
Still a baby.
Has having a baby changed your relationship at all?
Kind of.
For a minute, I didn't feel sexy at all.
We talked about this.
We're a very open family.
Because I got a C-section, so I have all my stretch marks going one way and the C-section
going the other way.
And he's like, your body's perfect.
And I'm like like but i see
it you know like i don't want to see it i don't want to i don't feel sexy i go into ptsd moments
of like she's still inside me you know like oh yeah so i had a weird place with trying to feel
sexy again with my husband and trying to like not cry you know while he's like, take your clothes off. Sure, I get it.
It's tough.
Babies change your whole fucking life and your body.
So sad, bro.
It's so sad.
It's hard.
I'm just like, I'm just chopped open, man.
And it's also, you're like changing poopy diapers and you're not thinking like, oh my
God, I can't wait to bone after this.
Like, it's just not there but i mean
changing poopy diapers to me sounds like that would put you in the mood y'all like to shit
together so you know you know foreplay change a poopy diaper take a dump and i understand that
yeah yeah so you said you were on riot and you didn't meet anyone there.
Were you on any other apps?
Yeah, I think I did Bumble.
You know what my problem was?
I would text them or talk to people and match with people.
And it'd be me.
And I was just way too scared to meet my person.
I was like, ooh, you're going to murder me.
Yeah, true.
You don't know about these online situations.
And I don't want to be like, you want to go to the movies with me and my bros?
Yeah, that's the thing.
In a safe place.
Whoever we're dating, like, they're immersed into the trainer family.
Including my mom and my dad.
They're over all the time.
Yes.
I mean, I've had even, like, you know, a one-night stand, and all of a sudden, my dad barges in through the door.
I'm like, yo, GT, GT, someone's here.
Yeah.
No, for sure.
And I don't even know her name.
And I'm like, this is my dad.
You've been in the bedroom.
And your dad has come into your bedroom?
You know, he had like a house project.
He's the house manager pretty much, right?
He's always working on something.
He's retired.
And I'm like, yo, dad, no, no, no.
And he can't hear me because he's kind of deaf.
So then I'm like, oh, so this is my dad, Gary.
Yeah, there's plenty of one night stands
where they walk out the room and my mom is there. And you're like, hey, this is my mom. And they're dad, Gary. Yeah. There is plenty of one night stands where they walk out the room and my mom is there
and you're like, hey, this is my mom.
And they're like, oh, it's just holding their extensions.
Wow.
What a full blown nightmare.
Yeah.
What a wild fucking nightmare.
I'd be like, this is no, no, thank you.
So it's tough.
You know, that's definitely an element in the whole dating process.
And it's all of us.
It's not even like when I had Daryl come in, I was like, all right, you're going to like
literally day four.
I think he met my entire family because it was Fourth of July.
Oh, yeah.
I had a party and he came over and I texted him like, never mind.
And he's like, I'm already here.
My cousins, my uncle, my aunt.
On the fourth day you knew this man, you were like, I need you to meet my whole extended family and celebrate America.
And he still wanted me.
Yeah, man, that's fucking love.
You love to see it.
We just did everything right away.
I mean, I've been trying to have a hot girl summer, but honestly, the Delta variant and people being a little scared has curtailed that.
It's hard.
It has been a's hard. Yeah.
It has been a fucking nightmare.
Yeah.
I did hook up with this one dude and I accidentally punched him right in the face.
So I don't know if it's going to work out.
Why'd you punch him?
I mean, not on purpose.
We were like hooking up and I was trying to move.
And I guess my hands were in fists.
I just connected with his face and I was like I'm so sorry
and he was like hey you know it's
alright and I was like I don't know if it's alright
I don't know if you can come back from that
imagine if he was just like hit me again
yeah yeah yeah
that would have been interesting I'd be like
spice it up
maybe this is
something new for me
I'm gonna read you this profile that I found that I was like, yikes.
It's not good out here.
It's bad.
Yeah, let me see what you're working with because I'm on zero apps and I've been thinking,
I'm like, do I just get on one of these?
Yeah, I'm in LA.
Yeah, it's the worst place to date.
Yeah, it really fucking sucks.
Okay, so this person, oh wait, shit.
Our younger brother is on all those oh he is how old is he
he's 25 now i think he's 25 yeah oh okay is he single as well yeah he lives with us but he he
does these bumble apps and then he'll meet one girl and that and they're like talking right now
but they've never met and he's like i'm off the grid i'm like oh you're taking it wrong i was
like just keep on swiping no yeah you gotta go out
with people I've decided if people do not ask me out within the second interaction I unmatch them
what are we doing yeah let's go out and meet I can't learn to like you they're literally they
talk to each other and they go okay we're gonna watch this movie ready one two three press play
and they sit at home that's how people date now.
That's crazy.
I'm vaccinated.
So I go out into the world and I meet people.
I found it.
Okay.
This person,
uh,
he's eight miles away from me.
He said,
uh,
okay.
So he's a,
he wants a BDSM connection.
He's a dom.
He wants a sub.
And I'm like,
okay,
that's fine.
And then he said,
if you're vanilla, I would be interested in a hookup or friends with benefits situation.
Only if you think you can keep up or rock my world.
I doubt it, though.
And I was like, what the fuck?
I doubt it, though.
What happens on this?
Who raised him?
You know what I mean?
Truly.
I was like, this is nuts. Like, why are you know what i mean this truly i was like this is
nuts like why are you already doubting me i could maybe maybe i'm the one but now i'm thinking i'm
not because you're doubting me this was on tinder tinder's truly the wild wild west that sounds like
a craigslist like looking for a sex hookup that doesn't sound like a tinder it makes sense that
it's on tinder i guess i didn't know it was getting rowdy like that oh yeah tinder's i say the most rowdy of the apps wow like anyone if
they sign up on tinder nowadays is it like we just here to fuck i mean that's what i think of
as tinder i feel like tinder's let's fuck bumble is like i guess a relationship i don't know i
don't i don't do bumble i'm very bad at. Because I also heard that you can find friends on Bumble, too.
Yeah, I know girls out here that are like, we all met from Bumble.
We met on Friends.
That's so sweet and sad.
How does this work out?
And I'm not here to make friends.
That's the one thing from reality show that I'm taking with me on these fucking apps.
I'm not fucking here to make friends, okay?
I have enough.
Hinge, I think, is also relationship-y.
Okay, Cupid, I I dabble I don't really
fuck with that too much but yeah
these fucking apps suck
it sucks dating here I hate it
I think I'm all set I might just wait for
those DMs you were talking about we'll see
maybe something in there yeah maybe his love of his
life is gonna DM him today yeah
so if you're gonna DM
Ryan you gotta be a surfer
you gotta have maybe a three pack, not a full six pack.
You got to be covered in sand, a little tan.
And then you have to be like, hey, let's go on a hike.
So that's your intro. That's your opening.
And you have to impress the entire family.
Yeah. Then you have to meet the entire trainer family.
You have to be accepted.
Easy peasy, dude. No problem.
Megan, I have a question.
How did you get into music?
Oh, forever, always.
My dad's very musical, and he would wake us up.
He was like a music teacher on Nantucket Island where we grew up,
and he also played the organ at the church.
So I was surrounded by it, and in the mornings,
I had a keyboard that he got me,
and he would come in and play music and be like, rise and shine.
And I'd be like, Jesus, every day.
Wow.
I just at a young age was writing my own songs and playing all the instruments because my dad would help me.
Okay.
Ryan, are you musical at all?
He tried.
No.
He tried?
I tried every instrument imaginable and I'd just go, I'm not a pro.
I quit.
I would just quit.
He was a drummer, a guitar player, a trumpet. He was like, I'm not a pro I quit he was a drummer a guitar player a trumpet
he was like I hate this
maybe I had ADD I have no idea
I was just like I'm done and move on to the next thing
can you sing
if Megan
will use me for like background vocals or something
or if she needs like a male vocal
to cut a song if she's in the room
and trains me how to
sing the notes and just like
i can like record it oh so no
no yes yes i physically can i just need your help all right real quick let's take a break break and a way back so tell me what your podcast is about it's called working on it because i wrote
a song on my last album treat myself it's called working on it and it's about like how when you
receive compliments like my first reaction was like it was stop like no I'm not pretty stop shut up you know
and I'm like no I'm gonna work on hearing
that compliment and go thank you
wait Megan why
why do you go ew
cause like okay so I just went to the Emmys
thank you so much lost to RuPaul thank you so much
but I got to wear this
like stunning Christian Siriano
dress it was like lovely purple
like my whole team team fucking crushed it.
He's the best.
But people on the carpet were like,
you look beautiful.
And I was like, I know.
And they were like, oh.
And then we'd start again.
I was like, you don't think I looked
in the fucking mirror before I left?
I look fucking stunning.
Why are you shocked that I love this?
So I don't get you being like,
ew, gross, with a compliment.
I have to start
saying out loud more stuff
like that. I was on Ellen the other day
and she was like, you look amazing. And I said, yes, I know.
Thank you.
Because I get it from my mom.
She talks very poorly about herself.
If you're like, let's take a picture. She's like,
I'll break the camera. It's out loud.
Horrific things. So that's where I picked it up from, I think. And I've let's take a picture. She's like, I'll break the camera. Like it's out loud. Horrific things.
So that's where I picked it up from, I think.
And I've been trying to train myself.
It's okay.
Let's be nicer to ourselves.
So I wrote a song working on it.
And we were like, our podcast, what's it going to be about?
Like we want to help people, but also like shoot the shit and help each other.
So it's kind of a win-win.
So we're like, we're working on like being a mom.
And he's working on sobriety.
Yeah.
Happened at great timing for us.
That was excellent.
Thank you for going sober.
And each week is like a new thing.
We're doing working on nutrition, working on.
Okay.
Yeah.
We had a bunch of different topics and then have people, you know, fans getting involved.
Yeah.
And working on living with siblings.
We just did with our little bro and we just let you can see the dynamic all of you live together yes ma'am so this is what we've
always lived together and anywhere i go i i force them to come with me wait do your parent your
parents don't live with you though they live um like they used to live four minutes away but now
we moved to another house so they're like 20 minutes away but they're over every single day
here at 8 a.m because we need a babysitter My dad was sitting on the couch with me the other day.
We were watching something.
He's like, I don't even know what I'm doing here.
I guess I'll go do something.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
All right, well, I'll catch you later, man.
Our parents are 20 years apart, so my dad is like 75.
My mom's 55, so she's like young.
She like walked here, you know, took two hours.
And my dad is like, it's 4 p.m.
We need dinner, Kelly, you know.
you know it took two hours and my dad is like it's 4 p.m we need dinner kelly you know that's i mean i'm me and my sister were close but i don't think we could ever like live together
we're two very different people so wait so like the whole time so like did you guys go to college
or anything there was one year i went to college for a few years oh a few years yeah i did i put
in three years oh wow it always feels like
two you went to nashville i went to nashville he went to florida and our younger brother went to
santa barbara yeah uh-huh and that was like the worst time for me because i missed them and i
was just like being a songwriter and just writing all about that bass and then when that started
popping off i was like i have to go move to california and i need you to come with me
so drop out of school and be my bro yeah i was just like all right fuck it
i love it i mean you were in florida right or no the other brother was in florida i was in
tampa florida i was like i don't need it i don't need to go back i think this la thing might work
out so yeah no offense to florida actually take all offense. Yeah, get out. Get the fuck out.
I mean,
is this a big house? I don't want to be rude.
No, yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm like, are you on top of one?
It's a good house.
We used to have another house where they were
on the other side of it, so it was a very
great layout. We had our own wing.
It's hard for us to find houses that
work like that so looking around
for houses because i have a baby so i wanted my baby to have a bedroom not in between the boys
because in the last house it was literally in between their rooms so in this new house it's
a nice big house with extra bedrooms for when i have all the other kids and then downstairs my
younger brother is in there right next to the kitchen and Ryan
got the apartment over the garage
Oh a nice ADU
an alternate dwelling
unit
This is his lair that we're in right now
I love this
He's like an adult
he's like in his own place but I'm like
don't leave
Okay so this is hypothetical
say Ryan and then this younger unnamed brother He's like in his own place, but I'm like, don't leave. Okay, so this is hypothetical.
Say Ryan and then this younger unnamed brother get partners.
Is everyone going to be in the same house?
Would you move out?
Tell me about this.
I would like them to stay.
But that's why we have to like the gals, you know? I don't know.
I'm trying to pull a Daryl and find me a rich pop star.
I'm moving with her it's a
pretty good gig i feel like he figured it out why can't i do that why can't it be you of course
my younger brother has like randomly said sometimes like i don't want to buy property
in california because it's so expensive like i want to go to another state in the middle of
nowhere and then just buy a great property and i was like but i'll never see
you so that scares me but i think i'll trap him here forever i think i'll have ryan okay well i
don't want you to have to cross that road until you arrive at that location destination i think
i'm stuck here i'm stuck here for at least five years because we made a deal during quarantine i
was because i was like yo i gotta move like i don't want to do this quarantine thing i i gotta i think i was like
one of those people like fuck it i'll move to texas like lunatic and then she was like yo i'll
buy you this pc if you stay for five years i was like all right bet oh that's right yeah fuck you
bro you're stuck here yeah we're locked in these expensive computers she got me this dope gaming pc
stream pc so I could do the
YouTube gaming thing
I tattooed that on myself
I have to put in five years
that's the minimum
so she can buy time
can she buy your affection
I'm kidding that's a terrible question
what an awful question to ask somebody
I love it
it works
Megan here's a question so like you all about
that bass was like huge and it was like for me it seemed like overnight I don't know how much work
like and back work went into it and maybe it wasn't overnight for you overnight yeah I mean I
I well like every yeah everyone has their everyone has their own take on overnight.
Because, sure, I was working and doing songwriting for my whole life,
but I was also 19.
Like, I was still a baby.
But the song blew up.
It felt like overnight, like really fast.
And it was because of Facebook.
I'm pretty sure it was because of moms on Facebook.
Like, you got to hear this one.
And it went everywhere.
And I was like, oh, Christ. I didn't even know how the music industry worked like I didn't know charts and all that like I wasn't that heavy
into it so I learned as it was hitting me they're like you're number one here and I was like
fantastic like what does that mean so it all happened really fast and they were like just
hold on tight and that's what I did was it tough to like because i feel like as soon as you're in the public eye people have opinions and they're
like they want to hear my opinions and i can say i don't but like uh how did like how did you deal
with that how'd you deal with like people's comments and shit on like instagram like twitter
and shit um my mommy um deleted a lot of mean Twitter comments before I could see them.
I love that.
I love that for you.
It was so nice.
She saved me.
And I didn't go looking for them.
I feel like you never really read those comments.
I never do.
And I know my safe places.
I know Instagram.
All my comments are going to be nice.
I know YouTube.
They're not going to be, so I don't look.
Except for our podcast.
Comment below.
Yeah, we read those.
But my TikTok ones are always nice.
Like, I know where the safe places are.
I know Twitter.
I don't got to be fucking on there.
Nah, Twitter's crazy.
I got to be looking in there.
So, yeah.
They mean on Twitter.
I can't figure out TikTok.
I'm like, I'm thinking of a whole video.
It's not for me.
I can't do it.
Oh, making a video takes me an hour or two hours.
It's too much.
So, yeah.
It's too much. But i'm on it all day every
day like when i poop i need it i love how that is where it's all just gonna keep coming back to you
i poop now because it's a blessing i'm so happy i could poop and when you say now was there a time
where you weren't yes ma'am yes I would poop like once every three days.
Yeah.
Could you imagine?
Weren't you?
Does it?
Are you?
What?
I think she was just super stressed out.
I think she was just in a constant state of.
I thought that was normal.
I was like, a poop is like a fun thing that happens once in a while, right?
No, I didn't know it was like every day, multiple times a day.
Wow.
Yeah.
Wow.
That's wild.
Do either of you have like dating advice for me oh man i'm the last guy to give advice but let me think of something um yeah uh no
um yeah it's tough tough in this city i guess, I feel like you're pretty good at reading through bullshit.
As long as you can avoid the bullshit.
I call them red flags.
Yeah.
You see a few red flags, cut it.
Don't waste your time.
You know what I mean?
Like if I was dating someone, I'd be like,
these are a lot of red flags.
Like, see ya.
It's not going to happen.
Because I know I wanted to be married with babies.
So if I met someone too that I'm like,
can I see us having kids?
Can I see you being my guy for the rest of my life?
And that's,
I knew that with Daryl and I was like,
I gotta lock this in.
What are some dating red flags?
Like if they're mean to you,
you know?
Okay.
You like,
you said that first and I'm like,
that is the simplest thing yeah like i
think back to some dudes i've dated i'm like you are straight up just like mean to me and i'd be
like yep okay i'll take it it's like you can't i also yeah i went out there to the world too and
i was like i just want a nice guy and like daryl was the first guy in my entire existence that was
still does opens the car door for me
like that kind of shit
where you can't get that anywhere else
like he makes my breakfast in bed every day
I know that sounds fucking bullshit
but he I'm a princess
that's nice
what do you get fed?
he makes me this special oatmeal
that I've been losing weight with
and it's yummy
and he puts frozen berries in it
so it's like cold and chunky and amazing
and chia seeds and stuff he helps me poop and then he makes my he puts frozen berries in it so it's like cold and chunky and amazing and chia seeds
and stuff he helps me poop
and then he makes my coffee with my protein in it
that helps you poop
yes I see a theme here
yes
it's a simple theme
when I'm on a date I like to see how they react
to like the wait staff
servers
and the people around I mean i used to wait tables
and um yeah you get to see like people at their true core in that kind of situation
um also like just you're you and if they don't fuck with any part of you you just you just
fuck them like that's it also you have to know how special you are, too. Because, like, I know, I'm fully aware of how amazing my family is.
So when I was bringing someone in, if they don't fuck up my family, I'm like, this will never work.
For example, my mom went to a restaurant with you, and you, like, hooked up with a server once.
No, I never did.
Oh, you never did?
It was just my go-to breakfast spot, dude.
Why'd she hug her?
She panicked.
She thought that I just like, I'm friendly,
so I made friends with like the waitress that worked there.
It wasn't like anything crazy.
I was just like, oh, yeah, this is Nicole.
She's going to take care of us today.
Like just being nice.
My parents are like visiting, and my mom gets up,
and she's like, it's so nice to meet you.
I'm Kelly.
I was like, mom, mom, mom, mom, momlly i was like mom mom mom i don't know her i don't know her so when you come in to date that's very
funny the greatest mom i was crying laughing my mom was like we need to leave now she just like
she's a nice woman i just came to work i'm just trying to bring you fucking eggs. And this woman is hugging me.
That's so funny.
But my mom,
yeah,
whoever I bring in,
my mom's going to love this shit out of you.
I know how awesome your family is.
And like when that person comes in,
if they don't get that,
it's like goodbye.
Yeah,
I guess so.
I love how tight knit your family is.
This is so foreign to me.
Really?
I told you dude,
we're weirdos.
Oh,
I think it's weird.
I was talking to them on our episode.
I couldn't imagine life with them in a different place.
I couldn't imagine being those siblings that's like,
see you at Christmas.
Yikes.
I'm just like, yeah, that's what I say.
I'm like, see you next year
it's been real what a lovely week
it's so funny
oh shit I had a question I can't remember
it that's the
ADD ooh I'll read you another
profile just so you
know what's out there Ryan
just so you can see the craziness.
Yeah, I love this. Okay.
This person said, real profile.
Please read.
6'1", dark, black,
American, intelligent,
hung,
horny, handsome.
We'll share more. Man,
interested in attractive, cool woman.
I'm easygoing charismatic and hope
you could feel my vibe and play with my big black cock this summer and be ready to be a slut for me
holy shit is that tinder too humans that is tinder as well
yeah people be uh be wild that hookup that you had where you punched him in the face
it was that from tinder um i don't remember what app that was from that was a little bit ago
that is so funny huh i mean i don't know hit him up see if he's anything like that sibian you got
there could be a good comparison yeah it sounds like a crazy ride yeah it sounds intense maybe
i will i'll be like i can I can handle your big black cock.
I just can't.
What a wild thing to type out and then reread and go send.
That's so crazy to me.
It's just like, tie it tight.
Yeah, we'll let them all know.
Let them know.
Bizarre.
Wow.
Okay, real quick.
We got to take a break.
Okay, real quick, we gotta take a break.
I've been on a good amount of dates this year since April or whatever.
And it's not been easy.
It's been... How do you date?
And do you message them like, hey, are you vaccinated?
Or are you good?
Have you been around anyone with COVID?
Like, how do you approach that?
Well, a lot of them have like a little vaccinated thing.
So like, I really won't talk to you unless your profile says vaccinated.
Although mine doesn't.
So I should probably change that.
And like, could they lie?
Could they pop that on there?
Like, yeah, you could.
I guess they could.
But I feel like after you talk to someone enough you kind of get what
their actual vibe is with science and stuff uh but also i get tested three times a week
same and then i'm working on this other show so now i'm getting tests i've i don't know there's
always someone up my nose with a fucking q-tip and it's a nightmare. Yeah. I mean, hot take. I'm like over the pandemic.
I'm done.
We've done it for too long.
I feel that.
I've maxed out.
Yeah.
Was quarantine fun for you guys since like you like being near each other or did you
get into like fights?
Well, for me, it was fun.
I made a baby and like did all that.
So that was like a thing I've always wanted to do.
But for him, I should have ended up in a mental house i think he collapsed he is sober now because of
that uh it just like escalated it my drinking escalated yeah big time i lost it because i'm
kind of a social i guess i was a social guy maybe that's's changed. I don't know. So I kind of panicked.
The booze didn't make you as fun as you are.
You know that.
It was a real moment.
Yeah.
I don't know.
But I was used to moving around.
We were flying back and forth from London to LA.
I was meeting new people, hanging around, and just living.
And then we were stuck.
Beautiful house, of course.
Spoiled.
But you're stuck in one place long enough.
Depends on the person, I guess.
And because I was pregnant,
they were really good to me.
My brothers didn't go out
and see a person.
Yeah.
If he went out,
he quarantined in his room
for two weeks.
Holy shit.
We would put food
outside his door.
That was after a year
and some months.
It took that long for me to be,
it was pretty much
until I was vaxxed.
That's when I first left the house.
He hit his final rock bottom in his bedroom
at the last house.
He fell down on his face.
Ooh.
That's intense.
It was an intense time
where you had too much time
to be introspective
and make choices know choices like i
drank a lot during the pandemic i was like oh i guess a bottle of wine a day is healthy and then
it got to a point where i was like yeah no it's not like you can't wake up at noon hung over every
day and then try to like slog through fucking life so maybe you like start roller skating or something yeah it was tough yeah yeah yeah it was tough
good now though just figured it out yes figured it out new house new you there we go
new house new you new year new you i love it new level of the pandemic new you 2022 the delta the this the that
it's getting out of control
it's like a new way of life
I feel like every day they're like there's another variant
and I'm like let's stop announcing it
let's just assume
that it's getting worse
and mutating or whatever
I want it to end and I want to be a survivor
like oh I never got it,
you know,
because we never have.
None of our family members
think fuck,
but like, yeah,
I want to be like,
yeah, I'm a survivor.
I didn't do it.
I didn't get it.
I mean, there was like what
the Spanish flu
in like 1912 or whatever.
I feel like we never
really heard about it.
And now I know why.
I don't fucking want
to talk about this
after it's all said and done.
Yeah, yeah.
This gets put away forever.
Truly.
Just locked in a fucking vault and we're like, that was that.
We don't open that fucking vault.
It's done.
It's good.
Throw it into the fucking ocean.
Goodbye.
Put it with the Titanic.
Oh, man.
Yeah, it does make dating extremely hard.
I mean, I feel like I've just been maybe too afraid to try.
I'm like, ah ah it seems like too
much i'm just gonna fucking do my own thing it's probably half of it like my brother why he's like
watching movies with his girl that he dates oh through the phone because i told him like she's
unvaccinated man like you can't really see her or like if you do like i can't see you for two weeks
like you can't be here so he's like he's trying to find somebody who is vaccinated he
don't get it he don't get he's not he's never been on social media he's like the only human
being i know that doesn't have instagram doesn't have facebook doesn't have tiktok oh and he's 25
yeah he's a little little caveman he just stays in his room you know wow but he does some shit
how does he like waste time Does he read books and stuff?
He'll make some music.
He does stuff.
He's my engineer, so anytime I need to record something, he hooks it up.
But he also plays video games with Ryan.
I'm trying to find him a gig at a game design company or something like that.
Because he's really good at sound design.
If you know any video game companies, let us know.
I truly can't even think of one.
I was like, Grand Theft Auto?
That's the name of the game.
Just a game.
That's just a game.
It's not a company at all.
I'm deeply envious of your brother not being on social.
The other day I was like, I can't wait to get off fucking social media.
It's cool, but it also makes different humans.
Like he thinks, like dating for him on these apps,
he's telling these people his whole life.
And I'm like, you haven't met them.
You don't know if they're evil.
You should probably wait that out.
So it makes your brain different.
You don't know how to be protective right away.
I'm worried about him dating someone who's un-vaxxed,
and he's vaccinated,
because it already means that you have very different views on science. I'm worried about him dating someone who's unvaxxed and he's vaccinated because it already means that you have like
very different views on science.
I know, but I think it was one
of those like she hasn't got around to it.
Oh. How wild.
Oh yeah, I'll get to it. I'll just
let the global pandemic rage
on with people dying, but
I'll get to it. The day
we could, we were like, let's go.
I can't wait for that booster.
The day I could,
I went and did it
and then made a fucking dick appointment
for two weeks after my second shot
because I was like,
it'll be in the body.
I'll be dead the safest.
I mean,
I don't know.
It's just funny talking to people
who don't like it
and I'm like,
guys,
you didn't have polio or measles
or mumps and shit.
That's a vaccine
that's in you currently.
We already have a bunch.
We don't have to talk about that shit.
Let's talk about titties.
No, I'm kidding.
Should we go back to pooping?
Mine are so small.
Yeah, let's go back to shitting.
I'm still floored that a contractor said yes.
You poop every day like multiple times a day?
They make whatever you want.
I know they'll make whatever you want.
But do you know that Instagram account, Zillow Gone Wild?
No.
What is this, bro?
Do I need to follow it?
Just the most insane houses.
And when you try to sell yours, they'll be there.
They'll have a nice picture of your double, your duo toilet.
My double toilet?
I mean, are they both white?
Or is one like?
Yeah, one's like the fancy fancy like it'll sing to you
and heat up your toilet seat
it's like Japanese you know
like it's a square
that was like a present I got him
for his birthday and then the other one
is like a Toto just regular
this is really nuts how this runs
deep in your relationship
you gifted your husband
a toilet.
It was his birthday and I was like,
let's get a toilet that hugs us.
It's love, man.
Is she just teaching us something?
Maybe a couple that shits together stays together?
Is that how this works?
Maybe.
Maybe the next person I go on a couple dates with,
I'm like, do you want to come over and take a dump with me?
That's another weird thing our bro like and he started he's never like dated people till he's 25 and this girl was at my house and he was like i'm gonna go poop like
right in front of her and i was like you're gonna tell her that and he's like yeah we poop it's fine
and i was like you're this is like day two of knowing here you're just like i'm gonna poop
so well i guess if you date online you can just just be like, oh, I got to go dump.
And you're like, oh, okay.
Yeah, I'll just be here waiting for you to come back and text me or whatever.
This was another girl who was in person.
Oh.
Yeah.
I see.
Okay.
Maybe this is just a family theme.
The trainers love to shit.
No, I can't poop in public.
Ryan's like, no.
I'm a shy pooper.
Every girl I've been involved with, I was like, I don't even think they fart, bro.
Well, we have come to the end.
I ask all my guests this.
Oh, shit.
I forgot to ask my guests earlier.
Whatever.
I ask most of my guests this.
Sometimes I forget because life is tough and I wrapped yesterday at 5 a.m.
Anyway, would you date me?
Would either of you date me?
Oh, I would date you so hard.
I think you're fantastic.
I'm a big fan.
You're a good time.
I love it, but that wasn't a yes.
Yes, yes, yes, yes.
I can read between the lines and it's okay.
Yeah, what was yours. I don't mind.
I got one.

Yes.
You can make bank. bank well if you like
this episode of oh why won't you date me you can like it you can rate it you can subscribe
you can give me like i don't know five stars on uh apple podcast if you write me something nasty i
will read it this person said i want to take you to a plant store and find the rarest most succulent
then turn you upside down and pot it in your pussy you'll stay upside down for the
rest of your life getting a tingle every time i spritz the succulent or turn on a plant grow
warm light uh to warm your clit and the pretty pink aloe sprouting inches away after years of
successful growth your roots will become so strong i'll use the biggest one to fuck us both at the
same time your root would then go straight through my body killing me uh instantly i'd appear as a ghost briefly to essentially to sensually whisper
thanks for being a breath of fresh air and then i'd turn into a puff of smoke and fly into your
quote-unquote pot only to be released as a queef a few years later when a couple of white kids
dig you up like a Jumanji board game.
This was the most detailed weirdest
fucking one I've gotten in a very
long time. That was creative.
That was an A++++
on creative writing.
That might be your soulmate. That is your soulmate.
I'm locked in. Maybe, but I'm upset I have to
stay upside down for so many years.
Yeah, it sounds exhausting.
Thank you guys so much.
Thank you.
We love you.
You're the best.
Thanks.
