Scenario for the new year, which still talking over each other. I think that if I try and start the episode, I can keep my attitude and spirits high. But somehow when you welcome me to it, I like I start off on the wrong, you know, like, you think this is a your podcast? I'm just like, I guess I'm just second fiddle. Yeah. Co-host Thanks for having me on. So happy to have you on pop. Apologies this week's of this podcast. We're talking about celebrity gossip, childhood stories. Oh, really? OK? Oh, interesting. Yeah, that's super fun. That's great. No, really? Jan, it's 2021. The year has begun. We are in the new year. It doesn't feel like the new year. I'm just going to go ahead and say it. I would say the first day of 2021 felt like 20 21. And then now that it's back to being a Monday and I'm back at work feels very much so like 2020. Yeah. Spoiler alert. It's days, years. It's all just measurements of time. Things don't change, like when you wake up and you're used to be 29 and then you wake up and you're 30. Suddenly, people start talking to you differently about your life, but you don't feel any different. And it's just a couple of extra hours or days have gone by. But, you know, I want to tell you or talk to you about. Yeah, I'm just so happy to never have to see again. Another like 2020. See a meme like 20. So happy 2020 is going to be over. I just want to say that those names should have been so happy that we have a vaccine and there is a glimmer at the end of this tunnel because this had nothing to do with the misery of 2020. And if we didn't have a vaccine, it was just a great groaning. I mean, I can't even imagine what the last bit of the year and what the Twittersphere would have looked like if there wasn't like the hope of the vaccine, it would have been so dark, so dark. But I know actually, I can tell you what it would have looked like it. It still would have been a bunch of so happy 2020's over 2020 get out of my life like all these memes. And I just, oh, the thing is, that joke was funny until like April. And then it was like, Oh dang, we're really in this. Yeah, I was ready to stop hearing about 2020, I would say on March 14th, right? That being said, I did post an Instagram photo where I did use the hashtag 2020. So people like me out counting out. Yeah, that's why I made it a long time ago. My insurgency was like a decent amount of controversy. Oh, you mean the collage you did with the people that are most meaningful to you in your life that somehow didn't include me, b***h? OK? First of all, shut up. I spent like literally an hour collaging, OK, going through my phone, going through my work. I know pretty embarrassing. You know what I did on New Year's? I was quarantined, so I had nothing better to do than to look through my phone for my favorite photos. A lot of them didn't have you in them. I don't know what happened there, so I can't really speak to it. It just, you know, an oversight on both of our parts. And I I found the photos I liked the most, and it just so happened to be with a random collection of close friends and family. Oh, it was pictures that you look the hardest. And in 2020, that's what that's what your cat. I wasn't even I. I my best photos of the year, OK? I did look great in all the ones I posted, of course. That's my prerogative. I'm going to post an ugly photo of myself on my own Instagram. OK, that is. That would be another level of selflessness that I never aspire to get to. I'm just saying. Spare us the speeches that are like, Oh, the memories I've shared, the people I've loved, those dear to me. Here is a collage. Save it. OK. We had I would have been a part of it I wanted to use. I wanted to commemorate how hot I managed to look all year round. OK. Yeah. There it is to my very attractive friends who I was surrounded by all year long. And sorry, you weren't on there. I'm mean, SmartTrack the photos next year. You know what's funny? You actually you were in draft? No. Oh, you, you didn't mess around for my gosh. I don't even know about what phone, what level of finalist I was. All right. There was a photo of me, you and Courtney when we went out to dinner one night and that was in draft four. I mean, they're sorry that was in draft two. Oh no. Then it was in draft four, seven eight. A freshman, Abe. Yeah, it didn't make it to eight 17 C. Oh gosh, OK, let's just move right along because seeing a post, it was trauma enough and you actually are unmuted. So I guess how much I like you. Oh, oh, right. OK. Can we talk about the hottest new gossip? Olivia Wilde and Harry Styles just broke this morning, and when I first saw the photo, I thought they were both in costume. Go and say it. I thought they were both on the set of a movie. The outfits are a little strange. OK? He dresses like that, like usually. So he wasn't what threw me off. But she did not look good. Like that stupid a*s headband. The tie in the center? I couldn't stand her outfit. And here's what I'm going to say. I don't really understand them as a couple. I think he's like far too. He looks intimidating, like FKA twigs or somebody like way more adventurous. And I don't know. Olivia Wilde. Well, she is like, you know, go women who show great director, a great director and talented. I just don't think she has enough of the X Factor. I personally think he looks like a child, and so I don't understand how she's attracted to him. I know there's a lot of people who'll disagree with me there. He does look. He looks very slight in those pants. Yes. And you know, her outfit. I just very rarely think a maxi dress with long billowing sleeves is a good luck. You're too covered. You're too covered. If you had a maxi, it's got to be backless. It's got her like a spaghetti strap. That's right. Well, it's got a big knee length and I was kidding. Honestly, like, it didn't even look like that stylish of a dress like piano in the headband, with the mask also a little jarring because it almost looks like her forehead and nose are emerging from a pink and blue mouth, right? Very astute of you, Lauren. You know, like if you look OK, we can just dissect the dress. The dress looks like when Love Shack Fancy came out with their target collection and just charitable. I know, and that's very kind and the new year. But like the hat had been had been looks like it's something she's putting on her hair after that, after getting out of the shower to help dry it. Yeah. For oh for sure, looks like a towel, turban and the dress. To me, it looks like a Kohl's Free People collaboration maternity. Literally. It's like for this season only we will have some free people dresses that are like cheaper than usual and polyester. Yeah. And then his bolo tie and it looks like he has like an eyelet collar. I mean, is it's just too much for me, you guys. I actually do. So I like a suit detailing. I like the head of the pants. I don't. I like the detailing more. I think the pants make him look shorter than he is, but that's what he does. He looks like intentionally stylish. She does not look so stylish at all. And this is why I don't stay on their relationship because I don't think I just I don't see it. I don't see it. I don't see it. I haven't maintained this for a really long time, and I will maintain it thus far and continued with my next sentence. I don't like intentionally stylish men. Yeah, yeah, you do maintain this opinion with my own. This is my sexual preference as a red blooded American woman, OK? As far as people expressing themselves, I love it. Be fashionable. But if I'm Olivia Wilde and this is the guy am being in, I don't want you to have an eyelet sleeve. I don't want a scalloped collar. OK, I want you to throw on a white shirt from Calvin Klein or Ralph Lauren that I bought you because you're too busy working in banking or working the land with your bare hands, like you're too busy doing manly things to care about to shop. Exactly. Yeah, that's that turned me on. I I'm glad that does. I think Harry Styles is attractive. No, not to me. Not at all. Not even in the slightest. I think he has a cute face. And I think that if he styled himself less stylish, that I could see the potential. So, OK, got it. Got it has become far more stylish the past couple of years. And yeah, it's just that she just doesn't make sense to me, like she's just not cool enough at all. Like whatever, she's a director. I don't know why this is makes me feel like I'm a terrible feminist, but whatever. This is my I'm speaking my truth. OK? And I just feel like he's he dates like very cool girls, and she just doesn't strike me as like this like girl who smoke cigarettes and on balconies in Brooklyn. See, maybe he's maturing out of that. Like, you were still dead set on dating someone who really cool who's like, super witty all the time, and it's something I'm trying to get you away from. Yeah, but you're trying to your kind of talk me out of that. I just think that there's more to life than those qualities and super witty. You only know I will tell me if a guy is super witty over text, it is. He's too. He's busy enough. He's texting you to mind. That's never been over. Or at least I've matured out of someone needing to text me something really hilarious all the time. Like, I totally matured out of that. And if someone's not witty and person like, why do you saddle myself up to that? OK, I'm not asking this out of yourself up to it. I think I'm just saying that he might be maturing out of like the cool tropes that you find so seductive. I mean, yeah, I used to I used to be more into like losers. Let's just be honest. I like if a guy like I didn't really know what he was doing, I was like, No big deal. Oh, now that's different story. As long as he, like, knew the top 10 cultural like zeitgeisty things to say as long as like the Twitter person. Exactly. Yeah, he was like retweeting funny people. You're like, Man, I'm it's guy's heart. He knows what's up, OK? So another thing I want to talk about that the interweb, the recently I saw photos of Margot Robbie recently that were healing healing. Yes, because OK. And you saw the same photos we recently confirmed, and I did this to Courtney. Yeah, I showed Courtney in person, I said. And then last night, it's interesting. When did you show her them in person? Oh, it was definitely before last night. It was like yesterday, midmorning. No way to us. She didn't say, Oh, Lauren already showed me this. No, she's literally didn't say anything. She actually, it was the first time she'd seen them. I was going to show you, but then I didn't know if you were going to be like, I don't know. Like, see, I don't think we should discuss women's bodies. So I was just like, Know, sometimes I'm in that mode. Other times I'm in this mood. And for the record, I do think, I think it's actually a positive conversation to have about her body. It's not like a shaming her or saying anything. Like, if anything, I want these pictures plastered everywhere. Yeah, I think that Margot Robbie in films, in magazines always looks completely flawless and like an airbrushed doll. I mean, and wolf of Wall Street, she's flawless. Yeah. And in a Tarantino movie, she's flawless. Yeah. And so the pictures are just not that flattering. I would just say, I think they were like she looked like a normal body, like she look like a girl in a normal body in a bikini. Totally, totally out of my feelings for me. Contrasting that with her Hollywood image. Flattering. What I'll say is that I think that bodies are just bodies, and sometimes they look like extremely like they just they're such a variance. I guess what I'm trying to say variance bodies are bodies. Yeah. The bodies are bodies, and there's just such a variance of like how they can look. And so I think that we're always used to it her body looking impeccable and like flawless, toned tan, like literally like insanely impeccable. And then to see these photos and actually it was like a multiple, like different bikini photos of her where she just looked like a normal girl. And one thing for me, like, I'm actually Courtney and I have the same thing without you. We have a little bit of like, I don't even know if it's related to scoliosis, but like our waist on our hips are like slightly on events like on one side, it goes in a little bit further than the other side. And she had the exact same thing, and for me, I was like, Oh my gosh, like, I'm not alone in this. I don't know. It was like it was a beautiful, celebratory moment. It's so funny. I've never noticed that about you or Courtney. I've seen you as a million times. But yeah, I think that that was like that was what was, I want to say, gratifying, but like, satisfying. On my end, it was like, OK, because I think we've all had that moment where we're standing in the Nordstrom dressing room or where we catch a glimpse in the mirror and there's a lot of fluorescent lighting on or whatever. It's not our best day. Our bodies hunched over or we're like clenching and this and your skin just is not lookin right. You're not looking like an air airbrush doll. That's all I'm going to say. And it was very, I think, restorative to see Margot Robbie, who is, by all accounts, like a like an A-list star with an incredible body looking that totally human like everyone else. And it just goes to show that you're not. There are these people who look one way and then you look another way. Exactly. It's more like everyone looks the same. Everyone's body sags and wrinkles and her cellulite and dimples, and it looks all sorts of ways. But the only thing that we see the only images that were given as women generally and I know we've made a lot of progress recently on this, but generally the only images we've seen at the not a perfect perfection. So that's why it's so healing and it is just so satisfying when you're like, OK, I'm normal, I am normal. Yeah, I loved it. I was amazing. One thing I like I'll recommend to the audience do a deep stock of her and her husband, Tom, accurately because he's really darling and might make you feel sad and I make you feel happy. But I highly recommend Instagram stalking him. Is he cute about her on Instagram? Yeah. Like, they're just cute. OK, well beyond Margot Robbie and her husband. I wanted to know Chandler. Yes. Have you made any New Year's resolutions? No, actually. I made a resolution to not make any New Year's resolutions because, like I said before, I have too many journals filled with them. Lauren, have you made any New Year's resolutions? I am in the same. I have not made any New Year's resolutions. Instead, New Year's resolution person, anyways, I'm not, you know, I'm not a manifester, I'm not a Pinterest star, I'm not a dream boarder. I'm not a goal setter, OK, I'm just more of a name. I love to exist. You should employers, future clients, are you? Yeah, exactly. I don't know. Like setting goals for me. It's just it's just like setting yourself up for disappointment. I also have too many journals of my my yearly goals that are like abandoned the third week of January. Nothing is more depressing than years later. Looking back at the goals you never achieved, it's like, why put those down on paper? Just don't. My goals were like your goals as as, like a 19 year old, a 20 year old. You're so like convoluted and intense are like learning German set up straight at all time to be able to do the third series Ashtanga Yoga like read a Russian novel every month. I literally have gone from that that used to be like my totally obnoxious personality, and now I'm like, I don't have circles at all. However, in the spirit of not setting goals anymore, being in that place in your life, I set not some New Year's resolutions, but some New Year's resignations. Do they hear that right? Yes, conference resignations where I fully just resigned myself to the facts of my life? Oh my god. Are you ready? I have 10. Forget my past. OK. OK. Yes, I'm ready. I'm ready. OK. My first New Year's resignation is that I'm never going to read anything by Eckhart Tolle or Total. I'm not sure about it. Don't care. Don't even it doesn't even matter to me that he wrote a book. What are some Eckhart Tolle books power now? A new Earth? I'm just going to live on the old Earth. Good here. Good where I am. Oh, OK, OK, OK. I'm never going to start my day with a gratitude journal. That's just never going to happen, right? Who is going to wake up in the morning and sing the first five things we're grateful for? I'm sorry, I don't have the cerebral strength to do that. It's just not in the cards for me. Even if you're properly caffeinated and ready to start the day, the day is upon you. I don't have time to ruminate on the things that I cherish most. I'm just not that I'm just not that positive. You know, I'm like on the scale of like Chick-Fil-A employee positivity to like, you know, Lucifer, I'm just more in the middle. You know, you total error. OK. Number three, I will never be on Forbes 30 under 30. This is more like this is like a you're just like letting that dream pass you by because the ship's already sailed. You're just now coming to terms with it. I mean, I never had any ambitions to be on Forbes 30 under 30, for the record, but now it is fully behind me. And Keegan mentioned someone that is on the Forbes 30 under 30 that we both know. And and I demo and I was like, Yeah, that's never going to happen. And that is more of a biological fact of life having hit 30, right? Well, Lauren, I'm glad you come to terms with that. I want you to know that everyone who's on Forbes 30 under 30 does Coke. And so I'd much rather, you know, you weren't on Forbes on industry and didn't have a Coke addiction. So congratulations. I'm definitely really proud of you. Number four, I will never be on the cover of Teen Vogue and casually referred to in the media as a starlet. Yeah, we've discussed at length. It's not like I'm just telling you again in 2021. I need to accept this. I need to resign myself to this. I'm not fully resigned. It is in the cards for me, though, it could still happen for me. Also the next four years and Taylor, I disagree, I think. Starlet 22 Sorry. I don't know if I if I tell people that 20 20 didn't count, I'm still twenty five. I will not be twenty six this year. I'll be twenty five again. So yeah, I told Lee our dear friend at 24, I told him that my starting years were officially over. So I'm pretty sure was a sunset as well. But again, this is the. Let's just get a New Year's resignation. You'll feel a lot better. Yeah, OK. Well, well, OK. Number five, I will never be a person who defied aging by maintaining a raw food diet since the age of 20. Right, right, right. You can't say any more like, Oh, I've been doing this since I was 20. I've been eating nothing but green juice and salads and doing yoga and looking into the sun since I was 20, and that is why I look phenomenal. Nope, that's never going to happen, though never got around to it. I did aspire to being a raw food as multiple times of my early adulthood. Yeah, yeah, which Chandler suffered through. I mean, yeah, we I mean, that's funny. The notion of like, I I can't say that I've done this since my 20 is like, you're not gonna be able to say that you have like, yeah, like, there's a lot of things you can't say that you've done. I'm sorry. Wow. It's just staggering. OK. Wow. I thought you're supposed to be a support, a source of comfort. I'm sorry. A staggering. Know what's actually funny is I used to want to. I used to think if you just ate raw foods, you would. Somehow that was like the fountain of youth. I was like a stupid eighteen year old. Anyway, there's this woman named Carol Alt, who's a supermodel, and she's famously does the raw food diet. I recently saw her on Real Housewives in New York City, Housewives in New York City. She was on the episode with Ramona's birthday party. Oh, really? Yes. And she's Ramona's friend. She's her contemporary. I'm just going to say she looks the same as every other woman at that party. Yeah, I think that's actually good news to everyone. Enjoy your stove tops and microwave smokes. Exactly. Yeah. No FOMO there. All right. Number six and trend. This might come as a shock to you, but I'm never going to be a concert pianist who plays long solo shows to sold-out concert halls and long silk backless gowns. I can't believe we haven't talked about your keyboard on the podcast, do you guys, Lauren? At one point, made our mom got her. Her 17th, her 16th birthday like a full music set up, so she literally just bought it myself with money I had earned, but your mom took you to Guitar Center, but she wanted to give them a ride. Lauren had a keyboard that she literally never used. Never. You're right now. That is so rude. I bought a very nice keyboard back in the day and it was like $400 and I bought studio headphones and I just thought, finally, my genius is going to be on locks like, I'm going to practice the piano all the time, my room I can put on my headphones. What I do is I don't bug other people and I can just be the music. I can just hear the sounds. I can create sound. And actually, I do remember the Damien Rice like, Oh, do you remember the only song I know to this day? Well, is the sheet music for that was like, always, always a talk. You never use keyboard. It's one of the easiest songs to play on the piano. It's like the same four notes over and over again. She is trying to flex her piano knowledge, folks, but I should say Keys, I don't even know. But yeah, I used to be like something that I thought would be a really refined career, like a concert pianist. Here's how to say it, and the audience just has to think of themselves as like, Oh, that could be a great career for me. Not a renowned concert pianist. It's not in the cards for them. I just thought, like, how romantic? Like, basically just like do magazine interviews and like a really stately dresses and you really have flattering dresses. Not the words I would wear. You have a lot of headshots and you just go to Seager's from Hall and Newport Beach like once a month and just play some some concertos, if you will call it a day, b***h. OK, that's not going to happen. Never. OK. Number seven, I'm never going to marry a man with a charming country twang who refers to me as his little lady. Sorry, sis. This is a dream that's still alive for you, though it's still life for me. I recently dated someone with a little twang that sounded like they're gross. I figure it out. I recently got it out. I recently was going on dates to someone who had a drawl, and let's just say that me and my friends referred to him as siblings. What do you mean? You were? Oh, that was it. Because that's what he said. Yeah, let's like that on our first date. He is, he said, siblings instead of siblings. And I was dead on arrival. Let's just put it that way. Can I just have to tell you I woke up in the middle of the night last night with a little bit of anxiety. I had half an early bird gummy and I swear to you within 30 minutes, I was peacefully dozing off. Early bird CBD gummies are magic. They're truly magic. They are literally magic. I don't want to travel without them. I don't want to be without them. I think it's the twelve point five milligrams of CBD, two point five milligrams of THC. It's that little c**ktail. It gives you the warmest gulyas fuzzy best feeling. It feels so good. It's so light. Also, one bottle last so long, it's a lot of product. Also, I feel like I prefer it to drinking at this point. Absolutely. You guys go to Earlybird CBD. Com Use Code Pop Apologists 20 for 20 percent off your order. You will not regret it. Earlybird CBD Icon Use Code Pop Apologist 20. When I was on a trip to Napa when I was like twenty five with some friends and this one girl was asking me, she was like twenty six. And she was like, Yeah, like, what are you looking for like in a guy? Because I was single and I was like, Oh, you know, like, I'm looking for a guy who's like, really muscular has like a great career. He looks a lot like Dennis Quaid in The Parent Trap. He's just like, you know, strong and sturdy, and he's going to like, he could build me a house. He could tell the Earth he could in a store. He could kill an animal with his bare hands, and he's just honest and right and true. And, you know, maybe he has a little bit of a country accent. It's just like a one point cut me off and she was like, You realize this person doesn't exist, right? Literally does not exist. Does it not exist? And that actually was a stark moment for me because I was like, Holy crap, you're right. This person does not exist. They don't exist. Yeah, I've stopped going on dates. So that guy because said person does not exist. No, they don't. Like, I basically was trying to describe someone as close to Jeffrey Dean Morgan, as you can get, but only one of those exists and he's taken. So here we are. God bless Hilary Burton. Yes. OK. Number eight. And this is this is really going to cut to the core of our podcast content. But I'm never going to start a wellness empire and be able to create easy content or sipping tea and making oatmeal. That's never going to happen. Are you saying I can't do that? No, for a foregone conclusion for me, we have outed ourselves as cynical. We have outed ourselves as unwell women, if you will. And so. I don't believe that a wellness empire is in any of our futures, and they won't be able to dig up this podcast and be like, she's selling you quinoa and telling you it's going to be like the key to your happiness. Listen to this podcast where she excoriates she talks about the joys of sugar free Jell-O. Very activity. Exactly. OK. Number nine. Don't worry, we're almost done. We're drawing close to the edge. The end. No, that's gross. OK. I am never going to be a person who just coolie never got an Instagram or any social media. OK. This is a great thing to talk about because I totally feel the same pain as you like. There would be nothing cooler than to be 30 years old and just be like, Oh yeah, I never got one or something, right? I just don't have the chills. I like radiating chills. A person is so above everyone. Like, we live in another sphere I find on a guy just like doesn't have an Instagram like. Dead on arrival. I mean, well, perfect person broke this up by the frame. They just don't care. But they're not. I'm not only the star, there's a guy. I just never got into it. And like, it's not like, like you said, I was just like a ship that just left the harbor without you and you just didn't care at all. I recently was thinking about this and I'm like, Could I? Because I don't think I because of my job, since I work for a social media company? I don't think I can get rid of my social media, although I do crave that sometimes like just ridding myself of it. So recently I thought, OK, if I were to ever leave my job or just decide that I want to stay at home and take care, raise my kids. But like, should I get rid of my Instagram then like, I have that thought like two weeks ago? I think that the brutal reality is that Instagram actually provides a lot of community and a lot of value. And so, yeah, I mean, social media brings you closer to your global community because literally right now my job description, I think it brings me closer to a lot of people and it's facilitated this podcast and it's huge. But I will say I just think we were on a podcast like over on the phone. I literally forgot about our podcast, like for the last like two minutes. Well, yeah, because we're just talking and I'm like, I don't even think about the podcast element. That's so funny. I think social media is interesting. I think it takes you further away from yourself because you stop having so many moments of just like reflection that you usually do like instead of just, you know, driving and looking out the window. You're like driving and being on Instagram. And instead of almost anything that you're doing, you're scrolling your phone. And that is like a big thing that I would like to work on. Yeah, but like in the same token, honestly, like so many good things in my life or because of the people, right? I mean, I think it's just it's all about taking like healthy breaks. Yeah, I mean, you can never take a break because you respond to 90 percent of our DMs like that actually isn't a reality for you, but it's so nice when I'm able to take breaks and like, stunning. I love that for, you know. And also just one more thing on this. I think if you got an Instagram sometime in 2011, 2012, maybe even 2015, but then you quit it and left. You're still a cool like you still have that cool badge, but at this point. Like if you have an Instagram now in the last five years and you leave, I don't think you get that like you had a mental break or something like this. It's a cry for help. It's totally a cry for help. Oh my god. Yeah. And you just never get to be that person who is cooler than everyone else unless you have a much of a finsta. Because I have a very good friend who does not have an Instagram, but she has a finsta, and so she's still like on the platform, but she's just not following every person she's ever met, like the rest of us. And it's the same thing that I do not consider to be cool. I don't I wouldn't say that. It's I wouldn't say that she's like the person who's never had an Instagram. But I think that's also another healthy way to do it. If you only want to tell people versus you've nine hundred. That's true. And you've never had like a perfectly pretty grid that you don't care about a grid and all that stupid crap. But somehow we care about where zombies to the grid. Truly, it's true. OK, do you want to have my final resignation? Please tell me if you think of a stop potential. But this year, in trying to get on, I learned blood, so I'm nervous. I myself to be a fact that I will never be discovered as the next supermodel at a farmers market in Brazil. Yeah, actually, this one could still happen. Thank you so much. I think you actually this potential. You never know. Yeah, I think that ship sailed a long time ago. Eight Because I wasn't born in Brazil. And B, because, you know, I'm just not a gazelle type, and it's just something I'm finally going to resign myself to in 2021. I'm so glad that it took you 10 years to come to terms with the fact that you're not that Gazelle type. I know it's. It's really tough, guys, look the power of New Year's resignations, it's really just I'm accepting the cards you've been dealt by the universe. Yes. OK. I guess I'm I guess I'll go. I have a few resignations that I thought of. Great. Let's hear them. I'm resigning myself to be more toxic. You're going to be more toxic as a person. Yes. I don't think I have enough friend drama like. Here's what I'm saying I used to go to high school. I used to go to middle school and I used to have constant friend drama, OK? And now all my friends are like, too self-aware, measured, you know, sympathetic, and we don't really have that many fights. And all I'm saying is that nothing makes you feel young and alive like a friend. I like being in a fight with your friend. Like some drama. So I think I'm going to try and be a force of toxicity in my friend groups. I think you should text someone something mean right now, OK? I like something like, OK, OK. Text Courtney. Something like that. Just like, I can't believe I could be so funny if I texted Courtney and said, like, I just like I can't. Is it really true what I say? Just text Courtney and just say, I wish you weren't so jealous of me. OK. She literally is like downstairs. Text her right now and just see what happened. It just it. But you just it could be World War three and a couple hours on the last texts that you sent to me was I could make the meatballs out of the blue. Her little sister is staying in her house in her home, literally with 90 percent of her clothes or her hand-me-downs. Whoo. Yeah. I wish you were so jealous of me. Incredible. Great start. Awesome. OK, what are your other resignations? I love hyperactive. We are with you are so racked I'm literally getting a jumpstart as we speak. I'm going to text right now and say, You don't just see what she says. What if she gets mad, actually? This is why. OK, so you're right. You're right, you have to judge him. This is the thing. We always assume that the other person is just so confident of. Nothing could ruffle feathers. I know, but like some. But then we. But then literally, we're staying up late like all talking on Kourtney's bed to like three crying. I mean, that's actually never happened. But we're having an overly long conversation. I would say an hour long. Tears are shed and we're going to an insecurity or in. So now that I can be my most toxic self, oh gosh, can I not drive you to the airport site? I mean, you don't have to let me look up how much of uber exile is, how much it is. I'm sorry. I'm just like, so tired and I'm feeling extreme guilt because I want to spend the most amount of time with you. But I'm also like the idea of driving there and back is giving me. It feels like we're only an hour and a half. Yeah, it's really only an hour and a half. And most of it will be sent with me, and you can just listen to a podcast not like my phone doesn't even work with why truck? Sorry, listeners, it's going to cost us 80 bucks. It's going to Uber Excel. OK. Just drive us. You would have me drive you. I know I would. I know I what. I just am like just one hell of a day. I picked you up from a million airports. That's true, OK? I just don't want to be sad. I'm going to be like, sad and crying. And I'm just like, I'm honestly just dreading it a little bit. I mean, we'll just say something mean to me on the way and then I just jealous of me. And then, so be it. OK, OK. Any other resignations? OK, I guess I'm just going to. I think let me amend my first resolution because now I see it as a resignation. I'm actually just resigned to be the thirsty b***h that I truly am and going to be posting whatever I want on Instagram. Sorry, mom for that, I swear. OK. Love it. I also think I'm going to start responding to people on Hinge because I haven't responded to anyone's messages and since, like 20 since, like November 20 solution. Not a resignation. Oh, shoot your way, right? Sorry. Sorry, sorry, I'm resigning to be more responsive on Hinge. Wow, how inspiring forever. Hold on. Let me think I'm resigning the part of me that used to say, Yeah, I'll go on a date with him. I'll go on a first date with anyone. No more of that. I will not just go on a first date with anyone, OK, but this is also positive. I'm like, You're like accepting of the fact that you like high standards are hard for me to be a good, bad person. It's hard for you to resign yourself, I guess. Yeah. Yeah. OK, give it a 30. OK, that'll happen. OK. OK. Anything else you want to discuss this week? What do I say to this guy? Who's Dennis van der Walsenburg? He said, Hi Chandler, excuse my Dutch straightforwardness, but you look absolutely beautiful. Where are you from? You should say Spain and see if he gets it, if he's even someone atmosphere. And if he doesn't get it, it doesn't matter. I can't. I can't. OK. Say I hail from the south. South Orange County. OK, answer first. Yeah, my ancestors hail from the south. And then the next Texas South Orange County. Oh, that's good. That's good. OK? I've got another one to hit you with that. I think you could workshop with me. This is from Michael G. Names a protected name, something I would never want to do with you in real life. And I love how you're like suckering me into doing it on the podcast. Michael G said the names have been changed to protect the innocent. I wonder how much debate your parents had over whether or not to include a D in your name. I'm glad minimalism prevailed, but I would just say if you'd seen my mom's escalate in high school, you would have known that minimalism did not prevail. My mom, who said she wants to leave the largest carbon footprint. Yeah, our mom who says she hates are the AP environmental science teacher we had in high school. I want to live as live as big of a footprint as possible. OK, last one, Abe. Kind of kinda weird. First thing to say, but I feel like everyone from San Clemente is good looking. This one from San Clemente, like I just I feel like this guy's already telling me that he's a player. I would say you clearly didn't go to the anti-mask rally and you clearly didn't attend the San Clemente mask burning rally. Exactly. That's done. Great. Thank you. Any other ones? Oh, I have plenty. OK, so OK, this guy's actually, I think he could be funny. Where I had a great response to him, like back way back when I responded to him and I said he works at Airbnb. So I said, What I'm really interested in is an Airbnb discount. Can you procure what happens if I use the code? Charlie Hinge 10 A check out what he said. He said, Shoot, I'm honestly pretty floored that you guess my promo code so quickly. I'm doing a holiday special right now. Enter Charlie Holiday Hinge for an extra 25 percent off. Includes a round of drinks at the spot of your choice. Wow, this guy. Be with this guy forever. Actually, it's really cute, just public affairs at Airbnb, so we're not really responding to this guy. We're just hearing. We are responding, but I'm just wondering how part of this interaction was gotcha. OK, so this is what I would say back to him. I would say hi, exclamation point. I can't even I'll check out. Unfortunately, it did not work. I was provided by it, by an Airbnb user. This is completely unacceptable. It is still valid. Go full, Karen on how I tried using the code and then doing it. Charlie Hall. I can't get a hold of anyone on your website. This is why hotels will always be better than staying in another person's house and you're stuck with your stock is probably going to crash. Just another millennial best company. These things are happening to your consumers, just another company doing a bait and switch taking advantage of players. Millennials should not run Fortune 500 companies or whatever. I mean, we know what's funny. Yeah, exactly. OK, great. Great response for him, right? Yeah, totally. Totally. Yeah. Um, someone said, don't send these emails, but I hear someone said, Does your family make awesome candles? Not sure what the hell that means. Yeah, that's very strange. I think Charlie's a frontrunner, honestly, Airbnb is a frontrunner and so is and so is the guy who the mask burning guy. OK, now we have the Dutchman's going to work, but we'll have to hear what they say next week. Yeah, we will. All right. So beyond your dating life, beyond your texts, your messages, thrilling, I'm sure for people. Gosh, what a great segment leading. It's rude. I mean, I just think that it's a comedy in between where it was like, Oh my gosh, you suck. I honestly hate doing this podcast with you. Yeah, no kidding. OK, everyone, this is our we're going to sign off. But before we do, we just have a quick what we're calling a work soft play because one of our listeners, Damaris Bailey, who's amazing and designs the coolest clothes. Yeah, she said that she didn't mind working a little sore for us and posting on her stories, which was very charming, so charming. And it was the perfect way of putting it. People were asking you to work a little sore for us. Just a little bit. Just a little bit. Nothing crazy. Nothing that should. That should extend past your 11 to two workday. Absolutely.
