Starting point is 00:04:15 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
Starting point is 00:05:06 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?
Starting point is 00:05:35 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.
Starting point is 00:05:53 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,
Starting point is 00:06:09 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.
Starting point is 00:06:24 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.
Starting point is 00:06:53 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.
Starting point is 00:07:09 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.
Starting point is 00:07:27 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
Starting point is 00:07:42 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.
Starting point is 00:07:53 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.
Starting point is 00:08:11 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
Starting point is 00:08:32 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.
Starting point is 00:08:59 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.
Starting point is 00:09:12 I mean. What am I doing wrong? No, no. No. We're weird. We're weird. We're weird. We're weird.
Starting point is 00:09:19 We're weird. We're weird. We're weird. Special case. Aliens. Aliens. No, like, all. Out of this world.
Starting point is 00:09:24 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.
Starting point is 00:09:38 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?
Starting point is 00:09:48 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...
Starting point is 00:09:59 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
Starting point is 00:10:28 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.
Starting point is 00:11:02 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
Starting point is 00:11:19 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
Starting point is 00:11:36 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
Starting point is 00:11:59 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.
Starting point is 00:12:20 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.
Starting point is 00:12:30 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.
Starting point is 00:12:45 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
Starting point is 00:13:02 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
Starting point is 00:13:38 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.
Starting point is 00:13:58 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.
Starting point is 00:14:13 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
Starting point is 00:14:28 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?
Starting point is 00:14:47 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
Starting point is 00:14:58 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.
Starting point is 00:15:47 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.
Starting point is 00:16:08 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?
Starting point is 00:16:23 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.
Starting point is 00:16:34 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.
Starting point is 00:17:05 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.
Starting point is 00:17:23 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.
Starting point is 00:17:55 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.
Starting point is 00:18:13 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.
Starting point is 00:18:23 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.
Starting point is 00:18:34 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.
Starting point is 00:18:52 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
Starting point is 00:19:08 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.
Starting point is 00:19:31 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.
Starting point is 00:19:48 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
Starting point is 00:20:07 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
Starting point is 00:20:22 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.
Starting point is 00:20:40 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
Starting point is 00:21:18 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,

Starting point is 00:21:40 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.
Starting point is 00:21:54 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

Starting point is 00:23:21 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.
Starting point is 00:23:42 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,
Starting point is 00:24:02 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.
Starting point is 00:24:18 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.

Starting point is 00:26:01 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.
Starting point is 00:26:18 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.
Starting point is 00:26:31 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.

Starting point is 00:28:54 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
Starting point is 00:29:22 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

Starting point is 00:31:05 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
Starting point is 00:31:21 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.
Starting point is 00:31:51 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
Starting point is 00:32:12 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.
Starting point is 00:32:49 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.
Starting point is 00:32:59 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.
Starting point is 00:33:10 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.
Starting point is 00:33:19 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.
Starting point is 00:33:48 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.
Starting point is 00:33:54 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
Starting point is 00:34:19 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,
Starting point is 00:34:35 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,
Starting point is 00:34:51 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,
Starting point is 00:35:03 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
Starting point is 00:35:32 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
Starting point is 00:35:42 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
Starting point is 00:35:56 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.
Starting point is 00:36:34 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.
Starting point is 00:36:52 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
Starting point is 00:37:10 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.
Starting point is 00:37:34 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?
Starting point is 00:37:43 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.
Starting point is 00:38:01 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

Starting point is 00:38:37 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
Starting point is 00:39:05 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.
Starting point is 00:39:35 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.
Starting point is 00:39:57 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.
Starting point is 00:40:14 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
Starting point is 00:40:32 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
Starting point is 00:40:58 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.
Starting point is 00:41:28 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.
Starting point is 00:41:41 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.
Starting point is 00:41:51 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
Starting point is 00:41:59 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.
Starting point is 00:42:13 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
Starting point is 00:42:37 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
Starting point is 00:43:17 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,
Starting point is 00:43:28 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.
Starting point is 00:43:36 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.
Starting point is 00:43:46 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.
Starting point is 00:43:57 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
Starting point is 00:44:26 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.
Starting point is 00:44:55 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.
Starting point is 00:45:13 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.
Starting point is 00:45:34 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
Starting point is 00:45:50 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.
Starting point is 00:46:05 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,
Starting point is 00:46:16 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
Starting point is 00:46:24 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.
Starting point is 00:46:36 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?
Starting point is 00:46:51 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
Starting point is 00:47:09 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
Starting point is 00:47:24 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.
Starting point is 00:47:40 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.
Starting point is 00:48:13 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.
Starting point is 00:48:23 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.
Starting point is 00:48:40 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.

Starting point is 00:50:11 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
Starting point is 00:50:50 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.
