Welcome to the Thicc AF Podcast! We are here and we are ready to go. My name is Emily and
I'm here with my co-host Sarah. What's up Sarah? Hey y'all! Hey, who'd you bring today? Who'd
you bring for us? Well, we are recording the same night that we recorded the previous two episodes.
So we're just doing a lot of recording right now and I really wanted our friends to introduce
us. Do you think that you could give a little introduction right now?
Yeah, you think you can do it? I mean, I can do it. Okay, ready? Go! Let's see what you got. Hey,
welcome to the Thick AF Podcast! I'm here with my co-host Brandon. Yo, yo, yo! How you doing?
I'm good. How are you, buddy? I am doing all right, man. I mean, how much fun was last episode?
Last episode was pretty good. It got a little squirrely a couple times. A little squirrely,
you know? Hey, first dates get squirrely. Yeah, yeah. Let's dial it in. Let's get this done.
Let's knock it out. Let's have a good episode. You know, we have our special guests here tonight. We
have Emily and Sarah. Hey, guys! So happy to be here. Thank you for having us. Thank you for
introducing us with those amazing words. Well, we don't just let anybody into our podcast, you know?
Here at the Thick AF, we have a very, very strict regiment of allowing interviews for this type of
situation, OK? Exactly. So if you're down with the thickness, what's our MFK? MFK? Yeah, what's our
MFK? Simpsons, Family Guy, or King of the Hill? This is actually a good one. I like this one.
I would obviously probably marry the Simpsons, fuck Family Guy, and I would kill King of the Hill.
And I feel bad saying that because I've never seen this shit, but I've always wanted to watch it.
Oh, that's nice. So which one were you marrying? Simpsons. It's a classic. Never gets old.
Even now, 30 years later. Simpsons is a classic. Yeah. It's so good. And family. They're all
classics. And Family Guy. I mean, Simpsons can see into the future. Ain't that the truth? And then,
I mean, Family Guy is just fucking hilarious. If it was up to me, I would marry King of the Hill,
fuck Simpsons, and kill Family Guy. I like your choice. Really? Yeah. I think I would.
What would you do? I might. I would probably kill King of the Hill, marry Family Guy,
and fuck the Simpsons. OK. Well, I am going to. I'm going to marry Rick and Morty. Wait. No, no,
no. Fuck South Park. You're breaking the rules, girl. I understand him. Oh, marry Rick and Morty,
fuck South Park, and kill Daria. What are you doing? That's a whole other one. I love Daria.
We could definitely do that one. I love Daria. Daria was awesome. Because I don't care. I don't
give a shit about any of those shows. I don't really watch them. I don't have an opinion.
I have an opinion about what I just said. We talked about this subject for like a hot minute
on the last episode, and we never really got down and dirty with it. So now's the time. Going back
to the strip clubs. Are we going to the strip clubs? Yeah. Love getting pity. Wait, how is this an FMK?
It's not. All right. So should we FMK some strip clubs in Birmingham? Aren't there only two? No,
there's multiple. I don't remember their names, but I did. Wait, Peter, what were you about to say?
I know of two. I do as well. So if you know of more, then bring on the knowledge. There's one
over in Besporn. I can't remember the name of it. There's more. Sammy's. Yeah, that's one. The Furnace.
Empire Gentlemen's Club. Playhouse Two. The Palace. Did I say the Furnace yet? Club Volcano.
Some people call it the Furnace. No, they don't. Yes, they do. Brandon, have you been to a strip
club in Birmingham? Nope. Never. I'm on Yelp right now looking at the top strip clubs in Birmingham.
You've never been to a strip club? I've been to a strip club. He lived in Florida for a long time.
Yeah, they do. What part of Florida? Mostly central. I mean, Florida has actually some of
the best strip clubs you've ever been into, but I've never been in any of them. There's one I'd
love to go into, which actually is Rachel's Steakhouse in central Florida. And it's a strip club.
I want to go there too. With a steak buffet. It's a steak buffet. All the New York strips you know.
Does it? I think Sammy's. I don't know. I don't know anything about strip clubs in Birmingham.
I think Sammy's has some kind of a buffet. Isn't it like, I don't know what the title of it is.
I don't think I'd ever eat there, but I think they do have like a buffet. I feel like. But most
strip clubs have a buffet and it's disgusting. Like I hope they have. I've never been to a strip
club with a buffet. I can honestly say. Sammy's has one. I haven't been to Sammy's. Sammy's has
one and they have like crap. They have like seafood. Right. Okay, anyways, what was your
first strip club experience? My first strip club experience was. I don't know how old I was. I was
like, I was in college. I was pretty young. Probably 18, 19, 20, something like that. We
were out somewhere. We're all hanging out and it was somebody's birthday and they were like,
let's go to Sammy's. And we were like, it was a Wednesday or something. We're like, yeah,
let's go. Let's go. So we go to Sammy's. We walk in the door. I think we pay money. I don't,
I can't remember if we paid money to get in. We were like, okay, we're going to go in here.
And we go in there. They had the buffet set up. We had to pay to get in and they had like one
stripper come out and that was it. And then we left it because it was a Wednesday and they don't
like have a lot of strippers come in. That was my first strip club experience. The very first time
that I ever went was with Jessica. Where'd y'all go? We went to the furnace. The Fernache. And we
piled into like a cab or an Uber or whatever. And we almost died on the way there. We call him Lil.
Who drove? Oh, was it Uber? It's a cab or Uber driver. A cab? Yeah. And we called him,
I think we called it Lil Wayne or something like that. Because he was like cranking the jams and
driving like a, like he stole drugs. And it was like back in the day, you couldn't get Ubers back
then. It had to have been a cab. He was so cool. I mean, he was great. He almost killed us on the
way there, but it was great. My God. Seriously, was he messed up or something? It was wild.
Well, I mean, when you couldn't get Ubers, then I mean, what were your choices?
Okay, whatever. Anyway, so we go to the furnace and we even paid for like VIP, which was like
so dumb because there ain't shit happening up there. No, you still have to pay extra.
The only thing that was happening is that there was a photographer taking photos of people.
And that was not like while they were getting a lap dance, but like people together. Oh my God.
Well, I lied. Anyways, that was not my first trip to the strip club. The first time I ever
went to the strip club was with the person I dated when I very first moved to Birmingham,
when I was like 20 something. And I was like so excited to be there. I got like $80 in ones.
And I was like, this is so great. Yeah. And so at first I was like just giving $1 bills out.
And my boyfriend at the time was like, yo girl, you need to slow down, make these bitches work
for their dollar. And I was like, what are you talking about? I'm supporting them. Destiny gave
me a $20 lap dance. She's 19. She's trying to go to college and I just want to help her.
And she's, I have, I have mixed feelings about this, but like also you shouldn't just like give
your money away unless they earn it. No, now I make them hoes work for it. They're not the hoes. Like
I make them work for the ladies. But like also. I make them ladies work for that dollar. My thing
is like we paid to get in and we're paying a premium to get drinks there. They should pay
their people. It's like tips at a restaurant. I pay a premium for your food. I pay to be there. I
paid a premium for your food. Why can't you pay your servers more than $2 an hour and make them
rely on tips? Like we should be able to tip them on top of what they get paid because you are making
bank. My first strip club experience, I was 19 years old. I had a group of guys that we were all
fraternity brothers and they wanted to go the strip club called Danny's and Danny's Danny's and Jackson
is my dad's name. I told him, I was like, I, I can't get in. I had a fake ID, but I was like, dude,
I don't know if this will work. And they're like, you'll be fine. And we get there and it was great.
I'm 19, you know, there's women taking their clothes off and everything that that's cool.
But we're sitting at the front of the stage. I've got this beanie on my head and this stripper takes
it from me. This woman takes this, my beanie from me that I'd like just bought. And she's like,
you gotta give me 10 bucks to get it back. I was like, it's mine. I came in here with it. Like,
I'm leaving with it. Like, I'm just here for these guys. I'm driving them. She's like, no.
And I'm just like looking around like that. We sacrificed the beanie and that was my first
strip club experience. Wow. I was seeing why were they won the beanie so bad?
Tender, bumble, hinge. All right. Who's first? Mary Bumble. Fuck tender and kill a hinge.
Why? Give us a reason. I was like Bumble. Why? Because you didn't have to do any work.
Pretty much. Yeah, that's exactly it. Being lazy about it. Bumble's more detailed about what you
put in there and you can have more fun with the whole the whole putting your information in there.
Tender has I just had a lot of bad experiences with dates with tender.
Never really seems what happened. And I've never been on hinge. So murder on Bumble. The thing is
they've got it. They've got to initiate the conversation. I mean, to me, that's the time
frame that we met. All that tells me about your choice B is I had a really good pick up line on
bubble. I wish I remembered it, but it was so long ago. You want to know what I thought was going to
be my and this was actually on hinge. It wasn't on Bumble because on hinge, I can, I can say
something to you first. You want to know the one that I thought was the best that I never even got
any feedback to. And it was a lot like podcast dating for a while. But like, I mean, that podcast
dating seemed to work out plenty of fish. Listen, podcast dating has happened one time. Christian,
I've gotten one hit. OK. And also like, yeah, but he was your one hit and he's here. So I mean,
I feel like I'm winning with podcast standing, but it was it was hinge and there was this girl
and she was she was next to an alpaca, you know, like in a picture. Yeah. And she was in a picture.
She was next to Alpaca and Alpaca. OK. And I'm thinking like, what can I come up with? Like,
like I want to be I don't I don't want to just say like, hey, how's it going? Like, hey, what
are you up to? Hey, they're beautiful. How are you doing? You know, because. Yeah, that's really
easy. Pickup lines are no cool. No good. Like, well, no, no, no, no. You don't want to be like,
hey, babe, like, what's your sign or some stupid thing? Like, just feel like, hey, how's it going?
That kind of thing. Like, here's what I'm getting to. There's this one girl and she was in a picture
with an alpaca. And I said, hey, let's go on a picnic. Oh, cute picnic. Where are you going to go?
Hold on. You coming on. I say. But hey, girl, let's go on a picnic. I'll pack us a lunch.
That's so dumb. I was totally. Did you spell it out? Yeah.
Alpaca. She did not know. Like plural alpaca. Was that your first message to her? Oh, absolutely.
What did she say? Nothing. I never got a message. That's hilarious.
Was that not cute? I mean, like, you wouldn't know. No.
If you were in person. You're laughing. If you did that to me in person, I'd probably be like, OK.
But you'd at least talk to me for a little bit. Right. Yeah. But that's me. Most people. That's me
because I'm and I'm a nice person. All right. Did you find out whether or not we are
not going Capricorn? No, you didn't. But I did. I was looking it up. Leo is warm, passionate,
sign and Capricorn likes to be cool headed and practical. This doesn't mean that Leo
isn't at all practical. Wait, isn't at all practical? I can't see with these glasses on.
Hang on a second. Let me let me fix my eyeballs. Or that Capricorn isn't passionate. That's what
they say. What if I read what I found? OK. It says, although Leo and Capricorn often seem very
different, they are compatible. This is because Leo and Capricorn are both highly loyal individuals
willing to go through anything for each other. Also, the stubborn nature of Leo and Capricorn
can lead to disagreements on some matters. Like what? I honestly like my me being a Capricorn,
the description of a Capricorn is me, which is one. It will hear hear me out on this. This is so OK.
So I was talking to my mom earlier this week and I was telling her what was going on. And I was like,
I went to Emily's earlier this week. Her birthday was on Tuesday the 10th and her mom was in town.
So I got to meet her parents and her mom's birthday is on the 17th. And she goes, Wait,
they're both Capricorns? No, yes, we are both. And I was like, Yes, Mom, they are because my mom is
too. Yeah, yeah, because we had this whole conversation with her. I know, but she hasn't
been on the podcast. Yeah, yeah, OK. And so she was like, they're both Capricorns. And I was like,
Yes, like and she was like, all the most important people that you love are Capricorns.
And I was like, OK, Dawn, yes, relax. It's fine. It's on purpose.
Because well, because I feel like I'm on like the precipice of like a Sagittarius and a Capricorn.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I feel you. Well, when I was in high school, my senior year, we used to have
Regents exams. And so we would have to like take these tests that were like outside of just your
regular grade and whatever subject it was. And they were these it was us in Ohio, I think it was.
And my senior year, I was like, I'm not taking any Regents classes. So I took this class and I can't
remember if it was general physics or what it was. But I learned that I'm actually in Ophiuchus.
What the heck is an Ophiuchus? It is the time frame in like December, January,
or January that is like. Wait, hold on. Google it. Do we need to have an entire episode for this?
Because we can. Is there in a time frame for every every astrological sign that is like in between?
Because my mom is like the last day, I think it might be the last to the next to the last day of
Capricorn, because I've been like, oh, my God, she's so different than me. But she's also
very much the same. But she is like at the end of the Capricorn. I feel like and I'd have to go back
and like look at it. But my sister and I are three days apart. She's the 14th and on the 17th of
December. And I feel like because your parents like to get it on like in the same time of the year.
Listen, Linda, I like to tell people that my parents had sex two times and it was to conceive
me and Jerry. And then they also got divorced because my dad had a headache the night they
were supposed to go see Pink Floyd at the BJCC. And that was all she wrote. Is that true? Is that
all that true? Yes. So Don said, fuck how it turned out. I'm out. 86, Don. No, 86. Whatever your dad's name is.
87. No, 86. You don't understand it. Charles. 86 Charles is what's up. 86 somebody. Somebody got 86.
Listen, no, 86 Charles. Don 86 Charles. Yes. Yes. But also, I literally would not have it any other way.
Both of my parents have been remarried for 20 plus years. I have no step siblings.
My step parents are the most amazing people. Wouldn't have it any other way. Happy birthday to us.
Happy birthday to us. Me and you. Because we never sang happy birthday to either of us. Oh, okay.
Happy birthday to us. Happy birthday to us. Why are you not interrupting her?
That was on purpose. You're welcome. This is y'all's thing. I'm just gonna roll.
Sing happy birthday to us. Sing it. Happy birthday to you.
Oh, he's singing happy birthday to us. Happy birthday to you too. And to us too. Oh,
happy birthday. Happy birthday. Happy birthday to you too. To you too.
Oh, what is this? A YouTube thing. That was so good. Thank you. Thank you, Peter. Yes. I like
that. Happy birthday, ladies. Okay. So we didn't finish the fuck, marry, kill. I will tell you
that I would. I kind of want to go back to the fuck, marry, kill to the bumble. I'm not a fan of
bumble because I think that I'm a little old. Honestly, I'm not really old school at all.
I'm very not an old school. But when it comes down to it. No, no, no, no. Bumble, the females have to.
Well, he's like, yeah, he said he liked bumble because he was. And he's like, I was like, why?
Because you're lazy. He's like, yeah. Well, yes. But I sent you an email. That was not lazy.
I didn't, I didn't get. Nary a podcast nor an email nor any kind of acknowledgement. And so
it reminded me a lot of being matched with somebody on bumble. Pete. That never. You're about to be
broadcast on every single streaming channel. I'm just telling you that's what podcast dating is like.
I mean, it seems to have worked out. You're about to be on the Internet. I'm cool with it.
I'm just I'm just being honest. No, no, no, no. Is this the only reason you're doing it?
Wait, can I stop something? Yes. Sarah, what's up? Pause. What is your concern or beef or whatever?
You responded to a podcast dating. Yeah. And so what's your beef right now? Oh, I don't. I
don't really have any beef here because it's it seems to be working out OK, but you just got to
be patient. And I feel like I was very. What he's saying is he had to wait a little. Hold on, hold on,
hold on. I feel like yes, that's exactly what I'm. It's it's like sitting on and on bumble when
it went. Hold on. When somebody matches gratification and now you're fucking pissed. No,
get over yourself. You know what? You're going to like me better because you had to wait so much
longer. Sarah, I'm not pissed. I knew I was. I'm just asking. I'm just telling you, I knew I wasn't
going to get instant gratification, but it just. But I also got a message. Tell me about the messages
that you got because I was battling with this for like a week. Like, I mean, of course, after I sent
you to an email about the podcast dating, I was like, of course, why haven't you responded yet?
Of course, two seconds later, I was like, because you were feeling you're feeling vulnerable.
No, I was. Yes, you were. Yes. OK, yes. Yes, I was feeling both of them were feeling.
But they were shaking their boots. I was like, I was like, I just want to know what they think
about it. Like somebody fucking tell me. It was amazing. It was so good. Here was the thing.
I knew we were trying to do that. And I told her to tell you. But look, I knew that I couldn't like
send that email and then message Sarah and be like, there's there's greatness in your email.
No, you couldn't do that. Right. So I knew we check our email every day. Like, right. At least
she checks it exactly. She doesn't check it. So I was sitting there like I said, I shot this off.
She knew she's it came out there and she was like, we have an email and we were in the middle of
something. This was this was this was after she was like, please let me read it. I was like, oh,
my God. Hear me out on all this. Put yourself in my situation. I shoot this thing off and I'm like,
of course, I want immediate gratification, but I know. But I also want a genuine response.
So I can't I can't text Sarah and be like, check your email. You know, no, no, because I want the
genuine response. I want you all to do it on the podcast or at least like send me a some kind of
doing it on the podcast takes at least a week. Right. Take it down because we only release once
a week. But what I wanted is as close to the genuine responses I could get. So I didn't I knew
I didn't I couldn't beg for it. You know, I couldn't ask for it. So I had to like sit back
and be like, are they going to put up the next episode every Wednesday? But we missed a Wednesday.
But you'll know except for this one. So I'm sitting back like but I mean, like I just I just
wanted the genuine. Have you gotten the response that you want? This bump. Yeah. So there is a
success story from online dating. Where? Oh, yeah. Next. And right next to us. Sarah and Brandon.
Yeah. So far. And then and then there's there's myself who I've been on all the platforms and
I hate everything. One of them. And there's me. And then there's Emily who has dabbled.
Yeah. But you know what? Like every long term relationship I've been in, I don't know.
I'm trying to think back. I don't believe that I've date that the long term relationships that
I've been in have been from meeting on a dating app. I'm pretty sure they haven't. No, I mean,
it's weird for myself. I hate all of them. They're ridiculous. But like, let's
should we hear from the success story first? Yes, I would love to. Yeah, because I think
the whole last like lots of minutes ended in we talked about Tinder, Bumble and Hinge as
Fuck and Marry Kills and I don't think we ever really did it. I would marry Hinge,
Fuck Bumble and kill Tinder. Really? Yeah. Interesting. Tinder. What about you, Em? Kill
all. No, I mean, I mean, I didn't know that was an option. Listen, I tried to break the rules with
the pizzas and have like a tort affair and I got shunned. So, yeah, I mean, figure. No, you didn't.
I didn't shun you. I did. I thought it was great. I liked it. I liked that idea. What did you let
her get away with the the the I thought it was good pizza. No, it was a great analogy. Listen,
it's all pizza. It's all delicious. I honestly haven't really been on Hinge because I got on.
I think I might have made a profile, but like I never really used it. Bumble I don't like because
I have to make the initiative and I'm lazy. What's the rest of it? Tinder I like because it's easy.
It's the first one. All you have to do is swipe right and swipe left and it's it's the same thing
we've been doing since Tinder came out. All these other ones you have to swipe up and swipe to the
side and swipe diagonal like to and you're doing it wrong. You if you swipe up, it changes the
picture or it gives you a super swipe or some stupid thing that's different than the other app
and like make them all the same so that every time I swipe, I'm not swiping having to swipe different
and I get myself confused on which app I'm on that that is annoying. That's very annoying.
I don't know. I don't like any of them, but I'm going to I said I'm going to kill. I don't know
Hinge. I didn't really ever get on Hinge. I've never actually used it. I don't like it. It is
going to be killed. No. Yeah, it's killed. But Bumble is honestly I want to kill all of them.
I'll fuck Bumble and I'll marry Tinder because honestly in real life, every single person
that is on any of those dating apps is on every single dating app. And do you want to know what
you're going to make Tinder people say, oh, Tinder is the sex dating app. Oh, don't get on there.
If you meet on Tinder, that means your relationships not going to work because that's
a sex dating app. Bull. Loney. Bull. Loney. Because you know what? Every other person on Bumble,
all the dudes on Bumble and on Hinge are also on Tinder. They're the same dudes. That's my FMK.
Kill them all. Who's next? Me. I am going to marry Bumble, fuck Hinge and kill Tinder. Why?
Well, I well, first off, I got banned from Tinder. Oh, I forgot about that. We made you a new account.
I, yeah. Did you get banned again? No. Okay. I deleted it before that. We don't know why she
got banned. She got banned for some stupid reason. I promise on my whole entire life, I was entirely
appropriate. I never did anything wrong. I never sent any news. I'm fairly certain that I know who
banned me. It was this brochacho who was the brother of one of y'alls.
Alrighty then. Things got a little squirrely on the last episode. It was like 4 AM and we
all ended up just stopping recording. Uruptly. Yeah. Yeah. Honestly, we all fell asleep.
Yeah. So I have a case of narcolepsy. I have a story to finish.
And my story is how I got banned from Tinder. And this is obviously only an assumption,
but this happened many years ago and I had matched with this guy and his sister was in the same
sorority as y'all. If I think something like that. I don't know. Anyways, matched with him,
talked to him for a little while and he was nice, but then he started sending me videos of
himself doing not karaoke, but lip syncing to Garth Brooks songs and had a whole headset.
What? I don't know if it was a real microphone or not, but a whole behind the ears microphone.
Like the ones that come out in front. Yes. Yes. 100%. Had one of those. And so he sent them to me
and he was like, what do you think? And I was like, you look like a 90s pop star. Well, I mean,
I didn't give that fee. I was like, yeah, cool. And he was like, what, you don't like them? And
I was like, um, this is weird, sir. And like very few days after that, I was literally banned.
I like went to the app, tried to get on, wouldn't let me email or something. Yes. You got an email
from them. What did it say? Do you still have it? No, I don't think so. I mean, I'd have to look at
my account, but, um, I don't know if I still have it or not, but I was banned for years.
And email address and phone number until I finagled my way back in. Didn't we make you a new
Tinder the same night Santana and Aaron met? Yes. Oh my gosh. Yes. I got myself a Google voice number.
And he sent me that phone number. Yeah. So Tinder watch out. Listen though, stop,
stop banning people that don't need to be banned. Like they need to have like validity. Yes, exactly.
And that was part of it. They were like, we don't have to tell you why we did this. And I'm like,
okay, well, I mean, that's the lamest thing I've ever heard. For no reason.
Yeah. It was so crazy. And if that guy was the one who did it, I hope that you listen to this podcast
and I hope you're still lip syncing and not getting dates.
Maybe he's, maybe he's moved on from the, um, from the headset. I don't know. Listen, I blocked him
on everything that I like saw him on, cause he would pop up sometimes as like people you may know
or whatever. And I was like, uh-uh, block. That is awesome. That's crazy. It was the craziest thing
ever because I knew I didn't do anything wrong. I did not do anything being worthy of, you know,
being banned. So did you just try to like log in and it just wouldn't let you. And then the email,
you got an email saying, yes. Okay. Or you all you can ban AKA no more Tinder. Yes. Lord have
mercy. So I even reached out to support and was like, um, can you guys tell me? And they were like,
no, we don't have to. What? I was like, okay. We don't have to tell you why you were banned.
They would not tell me. Cause it's like anonymous. I think probably because they don't want somebody
being harassed. Correct. And I understand that, but why not just say you have violated this community
guideline of ours, whatever. And here's the proof that you did that. Right. It's like, remember when
they came out with the thing where like, you couldn't have like pictures of guns or drugs or
whatever on there. And there were so many dudes that had like pictures of them holding like a
big old machine gun or whatever they're called AKA something. Yeah. Um, and people were like,
no, I'm still pissed off cause you can't put my guns in my picture. Like, okay, dude. Like,
no. So then they replaced them with fish. Well, dead fish too. Well, half dead fish, I guess.
Look, they had the fish in there before that. At least I don't know. I don't know. It was just,
it was the most bizarre thing and it made me like really salty. So like, I mean, probably once a
year after that, I would like download Tinder just to like check and see if I was like still on the
blacklist. And I was until I finagled my way in and then I never met a soul on there. I was on
there for like a couple months or whatever. And then I met Brandon. What up B man.
Oh man. So, so yeah, that's crazy. I can't believe that that's happening.
That's crazy. I can't believe that that they banned you. I don't know what I would do.
I'd probably be really happy. So then you have an excuse forever. Yeah. Exactly. I don't want to do
it ever again. Hey, fair enough. It'd be so good. Oh Lord. So what's, what have you been up to lately?
Well, I had like a whole like date weekend with Brandon. It was really kind of the first weekend
where we didn't have like anything to do in a while. So we went to dinner on Saturday night
and it was delicious. And then we met y'all to watch our friend Chase, Chase Stewart music.
You can follow him on Instagram. Yeah. He's really good. Honestly, I didn't know our friend Chase was
like a musician. I honestly, I had no idea. And then somebody said something and I was like, oh,
you're the guy that I follow on Instagram with the music thing. And I felt so bad. I was like, oh God,
I'm so stupid. That's our Chase. Yeah. And then we went and saw him and he was so good. Listen,
I had never, and I hope he doesn't get mad at me, but like when he posts stuff, I don't really like
what, and it's just brief videos, you know, if they're on his Instagram stories or whatever,
like I'd never seen like him play like a music set and just like, we don't hang, when we hang out,
like we're usually at the pool or we're going to dinner or like there's a specific event happening.
And if not, like if I'm over at their house, cause they live in the same building that I do,
we're playing with dogs, you know, doing something like that. So it's the first time I've ever really
gotten to see him just, you know, play whatever. And he did some very cool mashups with several
different songs. He's so talented. He did some of his original songs. Yeah, I know. And they're on
iTunes also, but Spotify too. Yeah. And so it was just really cool. And I'd never been to that
place before that we went to and the drinks were cheap and good. And well, I don't know that I,
the beers were okay. Like then I ordered, you had been drinking a Kentucky mule, right? Yes.
Which is like bourbon and ginger beer. And she gets, she has hers and she brings it to me. She's
like, I don't taste any, any, uh, bourbon in this. And I'm like, let me taste it. And I taste it. I'm
like, Whoa. I was like, I don't know what you've been drinking, but this is straight up bourbon.
I had a few before I let you taste mine. So it was going down very easy. And I don't think I stayed
too much longer after that. Well, but I ordered a Moscow mule after you had that and it was so
strong. Like I couldn't taste the, yeah, which is really weird. Cause normally if I drink vodka,
I can't taste the vodka in whatever drink, especially ginger beer or like, you know,
cranberry juice or something. So I don't know. It was really, it was very strong. I couldn't, uh,
I couldn't have multiples of those, but yeah, I liked the place except for the next day. So we
had a text message with me and Christina and, uh, Pete, I think, and in Victoria,
Oh, in Victoria. And everybody's like, everybody's like, Oh my God, I got home and I had to take off
all my clothes and take a shower and wash them, throw my clothes in the washing machine because
believe it or not, people in Alabama, there are places that they still allow you to smoke inside.
I have no idea how, and honestly, I don't know if it's legal. Hopefully they don't get in trouble
for me. We haven't said that. That's an unincorporated Shelby County. Oh yeah. It's like
in the BFE. Yeah. Yeah. BF Alabama. But it's, it's in, it was in a separate room, right? Like it
wasn't out there in the open. It was, no, it was out in the open. You could do it in the back room
and then that was like open to the front room and then downstairs they were smoking. Oh really? Yeah.
I didn't hang out downstairs at all. Yeah. It was, it was a lot. Um, it wasn't as bad as when I went
to that, this place that I played darts with eat that one time. Yeah. And by the way, I got second
place, but not because of me, but I ended up having to play in this like darts tournament,
which I've never played darts before in my life. And because they needed another person and
somehow I ended up, I played the entire day. My arm was sore at the end of the day. I played for
like eight hours and then I won second place with all my partner, essentially one second place. Like
at the end, we actually won money and we were going to split it and was like giving it to me.
And I was like, I am not taking this. It was not me that did this. He was like, no, couldn't have
done it without you. Blah, blah, blah. It was so nice. And I was like, please take it. I don't want
it. Like, I honestly didn't earn this. You did. And he had to play like double, like double, like
double good for me. Yeah. But at the same time, if he didn't have a partner, he wouldn't have won
any money. Well, that's true, I guess, but he could have had a better partner. He could have
had Pete. Sure. If he and Pete were on a team together, it would have been, they would have
been like, but Pete beat us. So Pete and his partner. So like whatever. Thanks Pete. Yeah.
But as a, as a, you know, couple that was there together or whatever, y'all won first and second
place. We did. Yeah, it was good. And then we played again. And after that, Pete and I played on
the same team and we won, but not because of me. And at that point I was so sick. That was when I,
we won't, I won't tell the story about that day until later, but, but yeah, I was like really sick
throwing up all day. So anyway, so last weekend was fun. Yeah. Yeah. I had a good time. It was
Sunday was like a rainy Sunday and it was super nice. I got up and made breakfast casserole and
then we made homemade pizzas. Oh my God. Let me tell you what I ate or accidentally ate on Sunday.
So Pete had a, so Pete had a hockey game and he was like, do you want to come watch me play hockey?
Cause that's what guys like, they want you to come watch them do manly things or something.
And so I'm like, okay, so I go watch his hockey game. He got murdered or they got murdered. It
was like four to zero for guys. But then like, I, and this is going to sound really terrible and
sorry guys, but like the goalie like took his helmet off. And I was like, that dude's like
80 years old, like not 80. He was like probably in his sixties. Maybe I don't know how old he was,
but I was like, dang. I was like, no wonder. And like the other team was like a bunch of like 25
year olds that are like fit. It was like fat old men versus fit young 25 year olds. I was like,
Oh Jesus. It was fun though. It was good. I haven't seen a hockey game in a long time,
but after that we went to, he was like, are you hungry? And I'm like, well, no, not really,
but I'll go with you. We went to some Mexican place that is like Mexican. It's not like Mexican
where we white people go and like get, and they speak English to you. This is like you go and
they're like legit. We were the only white people in there, which was amazing. It was probably the
most delicious food you've ever had. So I didn't eat. I just got like chips and salt because I
wasn't that hungry, but he got some tacos and it was so loud in there. The music was so loud
with the like, what do you call it? It was mariachi type stuff. Yeah. Yeah. Kind of like that. And
um, it was blasting. I couldn't hear myself talk or think. Um, so I couldn't hear what he ordered.
So we got there. He ordered like two different types of tacos and he had them in front of him
and one of them looked like either like a steak or a pork taco. And I'm like, Ooh, and one of the
pieces of meat fell off the taco. So I was like, Ooh, let me taste this meat. I picked it up and
I was like, Oh, that's pretty good. I was like, that's pretty good. And he was like, do you know
what that is? And I was like, I mean, I don't know what it was like pork or something. And he's like,
that's cow tongue. Was it lingua? Yes. It was so good. But like, as soon as he said it,
like he said cow tongue and I was like, like it just like didn't sit right. And I was like,
he was like, does that make you weirded out? I was like, no, it was still really good. It's just like,
for some reason it's like, it reminds me of like eating or like, I forget that cows have tongues.
It's really sad to like some cows tongue. I had that when we went, I don't remember if you were
with us this day or not, when we went to that like taco truck fast at ghost train, the new ghost
train. No, no, no, I've never been to ghost train. Okay. Um, they had, they had it while we were
there and I got some and I got a lingua taco and it was delicious. Nice. So good. Yeah. See,
I don't know. Like, like a cow tongue off of a food truck sounds interesting. I don't know. Well,
it wasn't a food truck that I got it from. It was like a taco stand type situation. Oh, okay. I got
it. Yeah. So, but I mean, no different. I mean, they have all the cooking utensils that you need
in a food truck anyways. Yeah. But they, so that's okay. So the thing with the food truck,
if we want to get into like my like skepticisms about that. Okay. So when you drive a car
or like an RV, okay. So when you, if you have like an RV, you have to have it hooked up to power
at all times so that your refrigerator and all that stuff works. Yeah. Okay. Generators. Right.
So what are they plug into a building? What are they plugging into? Like, and when they are driving,
how are they, do they have a generator in there that they're, um, sure they're driving off of gas.
I know, but what is powering the generator. Okay. So they have a generator while they're driving so
that the refrigerator doesn't shut off. And then after that, if they have things that are cooling
in there, it'll stay cold even when they're not in the car and it's not powered. Listen, I don't know.
See that freaks me out. I mean, honestly, they, they have to get the health department and stuff.
Yeah. The health department has to come. Yeah. I get it. But like, yeah.
Maybe we'll have to find somebody that we know that, that works in a food truck. Yeah. And ask
some questions. I do, I do like the things you wonder about one of Catherine's cousins. I think
it's a food truck. It's like a pizza food truck that she works in. She's like really young. She's
probably like 18 or 19 and she works in like this pizza food truck. And she says like, so hot,
cause they have like a brick oven or something in this food truck. I'm like, wow. She's like,
yeah, you sweat like the entire time. It's really crazy. Yeah. I don't doubt it at all.
Anything else going on? I don't, I think this is the first weekend in a really long time that I
don't have anything that I have to do. And I'm so excited. That sounds really amazing. I thought
that was going to happen to me last weekend and it didn't, it ended up being a long weekend,
but not really. I mean, honestly, I said I wasn't going to do anything. And then I ended up doing
stuff and all the things that I said I was going to do, like clean out all my closets that when you
open the door stuff falls out and I can't, I did clean out one closet when P was here last week.
He came over and he was supposed, he was like, I'm going to come over and help you like clean.
And I'm like, no, you're not, but you can come over. I didn't say that. I was like, okay, come on.
He came over, he sat on the couch and I like cleaned out the closet upstairs part, the bottom
part, which like made me feel a lot happier. But like that closet right behind you, it's just like
stuff falling out. Yes. I totally understand what you're saying. So we were supposed to have lazy
Sunday and we did, but we did like laundry and I washed the duvet cover and changed the sheets.
And like all that stuff. Oh, that's so nice. Isn't it? It was the greatest thing ever. But the very
last load of laundry was mostly all of my clothes, um, left it in there on Sunday night. Well,
a very first thing Monday morning I had like starting at eight 30 back to back calls and
Brandon didn't have to go into work until like 11. When I tell you, I had the nicest surprise
when I got out, like finally was able to get away from like my meetings or whatever. That man had
folded all of my clothes and left them on my bed for me, including my panties. That right there.
Oh my gosh. Did I have, I told you about the story about my ex boyfriend who was that my,
so my ex boyfriend, he was at, I lived downtown, like in this, like an off Highland Avenue in this
little historic apartment. And it was like a tiny one bedroom old thing. You had to go a million
stairs to get there. And he, my parents were visiting and he, I'm not going to say his name.
He used to do all the laundry and honestly, I'm pretty sure he did the laundry because
he wanted to do his laundry at my place. So he would also do my laundry so that I would never
say anything. I mean, maybe, maybe not. He could tell us otherwise, but like it was amazing because
I hate doing laundry. I hate folding laundry. I hate putting the laundry in, hate taking laundry
out. I'm too short to get the clothes out of the deep washer. Like, and like the, the front
loading washers are disgusting. Don't get me started on that. But like, yeah, it just sucks.
And like with my ankle right now, I can, I can't lift up on my toes. So trying to get into the
washer, I'm like climbing in with my arms. I'm like, ah, it's hard to get the stuff. I'm like,
I'll have to sock in there. Can't get it out. Got to get like a stick. It's so bad. I need,
I need somebody tall or with long arms or something. But yeah, he used to do all that stuff.
And so my parents were there and he and my dad were sitting on the couch, like watching football
or something, like probably the Alabama game, because they're both Alabama fans. And my ex
boyfriend is sitting there and he is literally folding like my panties and like my like little,
like this was back when I was a lot littler, my little, I was still thick AF, but I was
littler thick AF. He was folding like my like little like lingerie shorts and like things
in front of my panties in front of my dad. And I like looked at him. I walked in there
from the other room and I looked at him like what he was just doing it. Cause this is how
he just like didn't realize it. And he was like, and I was like, what are you doing? Like you look
like you're like sniffing my panties in front of my dad. This is weird, dude. And my dad, obviously
what he, I don't know. I need to ask. My dad never said anything, but like, obviously he was probably
just like, Oh, I don't know what laundry, I don't fold laundry. So when we used to come down here
during the summer, after my parents got divorced, when I was like, I don't, you know, in my teen
years or whatever, you know, when it was back, like all the rage to wear like the, the tank tops
with the shelf bras in them. Oh yeah. Before like I had giant boobs. Did they have like pads in them?
No. Oh, did you ever see the ones that had the pads in them? I think you could get them at like,
what was that store? Like Hollister or like Abercrombie or something. No, I didn't wear those.
These were just like regular ones. Um, but anyways, it was the funniest thing watching my dad try to
fold those tank tops. Cause he could not figure it out. Cause he had them like inside out. Yes.
Inside out. Like the flipped up. Yes. It was all sorts of screwed up and it was hysterical and he
would just get so mad and eventually be like, y'all are folding these. It's like you, like I put this
on my body. How do you think it gets there? That is how you fold it dad. Put it on the way. Yeah.
He's like, no, it goes up this way. Is this a turtleneck? Can you see somebody wearing it?
Yeah. Oh my God. Oh man. Wow. That's so funny. Dads. Yeah. I'm pretty sure my dad just hangs up all
of his clothes. I don't know if I've ever seen him fold any clothes. So let me, so growing up,
we had like, we didn't have socks put together in places. We had a sock basket. Absolutely. And
they are freaking everywhere. No, you take your socks off. You put, when I do my laundry, I make
sure that when they go in the wash, I've got both of the socks. If I don't have them, I go find it.
And if I don't can't find the other one, the one that I can't find goes in the garbage, unless it's
a Lululemon sock that is really expensive and I'll look for some more, but, um, and I love those.
I don't make sure that I have both of them, but you know, I'm a weirdo and like, I don't know,
I don't leave clothes on my floor. I wear my sneakers like all the time. And so when I go
to bed at night, like I take my socks off and I put them in the laundry basket. I know that they're
there. Yeah. Yeah. I put them in the laundry basket. Oh, I do take off my socks a lot and
they'll be like laying upstairs, but I can't get high. If I'm taking my socks off, it's going in
the laundry basket. Yeah. So, but I don't wear shoes all day. Um, I'm usually barefoot, but yeah.
So, but no, when they go, I put them together. I, I can't stand it. Like, and I still go to
my parents' house and I'll be like, can I have some socks? And they're like trying to dig through
the basket to find me some matching socks. It's like the worst. And I get so mad. I would, I used
to go over there and like get the laundry basket out and just like put them together. And my mom
would be like, why are you doing that? She would like get mad at me. And I think it's because mom,
you can tell me if I'm wrong, but I'm a swear. I think it's because she feels bad for not putting
them together herself. And she's like mad at me for doing it because it's making her feel like bad.
I don't know that I would dig through a basket of socks. I think if I were missing socks,
I would go to the store and buy matching ones for myself. Yeah. That would give me such anxiety
trying to, it's actually kind of fun. Like a puzzle. It's like Tupperware though. You know,
when you go somewhere and like, you know, the top is somewhere, but you don't know where the hell
it is. And then you can't find it and you already put the food in there. And then you're like,
what the hell? Now I got a dirty something else, but you don't throw it away either. The bottom
that you just had the food. I know I keep it just in case I need to feed my dogs in it somewhere.
You're still going to wash it and keep the stupid thing. I try to throw them away, but,
but I do keep them sometimes because a lot of times I'll have to like somebody's dog comes over
and I've got to like have another bowl or whatever. So, and there's, you know, you can throw them away
and get a new one, but like mine as well, just throw it away after the dog eats out of it or
something. Your mom asked some dumb question at one point. Oh, did the dog eat out of this bowl?
It was a coffee cup and you were like, no, why? And she was like, I don't know. It's got dogs on
it. Yeah. She got, just because there's dogs on it doesn't mean the dogs eat out of it. Yeah. It's
a mug. It's like a cute coffee mug. It's like a big one that I love that I drink soup, eat soup out
of. Cause I don't drink coffee. Her logic killed me with that one. Well, she doesn't like the,
she doesn't. So if you go to her house and try to like, if I were to try to give my, her some
tupper, some of her tupperware to my dogs to like drink water or eat food out of, she would have it
come apart. And also her tupperware is not stuff you buy from the store. Her stuff is like, hey,
you see the stuff that I have? I have like a mix of like stuff I've bought, but then I like lost
part of it. So I threw it away and a mix of like Chinese takeout containers that I save. And,
but my mom's is like butter containers and like sour and like, Oh, the best ones are like the
Neapolitan ice cream. Is it a Northern thing? Yes. I thought it was a Southern thing. I can't
remember what I was doing one time, but I, it was when I was living down here or whatever,
but I did the same thing. I saved like a cottage cheese and like a butter container or whatever.
And I was in the break room at work. This was a long time ago, like my first, like for real
corporate job or whatever. And I remember being in the break room and somebody was like, why are
you eating butter for lunch? And I was like, it's not butter, it's a tupperware. Country crock.
Oh, that's disgusting. Yeah. But I was like, what are you talking about? This is my lunch.
Like, you're disgusting. Why don't you go on a diet and stop eating butter for lunch?
Well, because you should have been like, well, cause later on in life, I want to make a podcast
called thick AF and I'm trying to get there. Okay. Yeah, exactly.
