I'm literally holding it up to the radio.
I don't know what you're doing.
What do you mean you don't know what I'm doing?
What are you doing?
Abracadabra.
That was the newest Eminem song brought to you by Eminem.
The real Slim Shady.
I'll just say that in the sweet side of life.
Well we can't coin that.
We're bringing it though.
We brought it.
We brought it to the recording.
So you are now listening to Welcome to...
Words.
We are the sweet side of Life Podcast.
With our exclusive, hidden in the streets with the sweets.
That's the coin phrase.
And we're sober.
Are we?
I would hope so because you're driving.
I'm high on life.
You're high on your turkey sandwich from Starbucks?
What did they put in that?
Good stuff.
So what are we doing?
We are on our way to SMI Sea Mountain in Palm Springs, California.
Not to be confused with the one they have in Vegas which we've never been there.
Not yet.
We heard it was good though.
So this is our second visit to SMI.
Our first visit was October of 2020.
You looked it up?
No, but it was.
Oh.
It was...
The COVID protocols were still very much being talked about.
And it was October.
Oh.
COVID protocols at a naked resort where people...
That's what I'm talking about.
We were wondering about the mask and stuff.
Those were all questions.
So in October 2020, that was definitely still a question.
October 21, it wasn't a question.
Got it.
It was like, wear your mask but not your clothes.
We're a mask and a condom at all times, people.
That's the protocol.
So Sea Mountain Inn.
Sea Mountain Inn.
We went there obviously 2020.
So it's been a minute, four years.
Almost four years since we've been there.
Yes.
A lot has changed in our swinging life and our everything.
I have boobs now.
So yeah, we are kind of not sure what to expect because our first visit was a little scary.
Not like anything they did, just our own personal feelings and insecurities.
Well, if you listen to that episode, we have a whole episode dedicated to it.
And they're getting a part of the podcast.
And it was one of our first resorts.
Like we had done FA, but FA's inside, it's dark.
You can wear clothes and SMIs to complete upside.
It's outside.
It's very bright outside.
And you make it.
So I did hear from somebody that they like strip you down right when you get there.
And I feel like that sounds a little more aggressive than what I remember even in my like terrified state of what was going to happen.
They walked us around.
Yeah, in our clothes.
They took us into the room.
Yeah, in our clothes they showed us around and then like basically, I mean, yeah, you have to be naked, but they gave us...
You can wear a towel.
Yeah, or a sarong.
Or a sarong.
So...
Not to be confused with a thong.
No, can't wear a thong.
But then at night you can wear lingerie to their little night party.
Yeah.
But tonight is a special event, it's Summer Ween.
Yes.
So they're having like a costume contest.
Which I was so confused about and I like, I asked...
I can't remember who I was talking to, but I asked somebody, I was like, what kind of costume do you wear naked?
And basically they said ears?
Or like a headband.
I was like...
What?
Like, because you're... you have to be naked.
So like, I'm like, what... how would you wear a costume but be naked?
I don't know.
I was very contradictory.
In the description they were... they referenced Alice in Wonderland a few times.
Mad Hatter type stuff, so...
So hats?
I don't know.
So you can wear a hat?
Let's... it's safe to say we're not gonna participate in that.
Yeah, because we have no clue.
Like, we're not staying there, we're just doing a day pass, so we're not...
We're not trying to bring a whole luggage of stuff and...
We already have enough shit with our cooler and backpack and...
Yeah.
And all that, so...
So it's supposed to be a hundred... you said 110 today?
Yeah, and 111, yeah.
Yeah, so we gotta wear our sunscreen.
And...
They have a no sunscreen policy there.
No.
But if I do remember, I feel like the pool wasn't in direct sunlight because it's got
kind of high buildings all around it and trees.
But we'll see, like I said, it's been four years.
High buildings?
Like the... like the... like it's in the center of like all of the...
Remember that big wall?
It's in the middle of...
The time of Spurton, New York?
No, remember that big wall that like had like the Buddha thing on it that was...
Yeah.
Like it's on one side and then...
I can kind of...
They have some higher walls there.
Yeah.
I don't remember much as far as cover.
Yeah.
But we were hardly in the pool last time.
Yeah, because it was October, so we were in the jacuzzi.
But this time we'll be more pool less jacuzzi.
Right.
So we're getting there early.
We're hoping to get a chair or two and be able to ease our way in since we're sober
and...
We're only sober now.
Yeah.
We're not sober in general life.
No, no.
Obviously we do a drinking podcast that has swinging in it.
So this is our last podcast.
It's not our last podcast.
People are not going to understand what you're saying.
So anyway, we were thinking we were going and nobody...
We weren't going to know anybody there necessarily.
Like we didn't really...
And like, I don't know, did you put a rendezvous out?
You probably did.
I did, but it's far enough a way that we don't typically run into people we know.
We know, right?
Unless we kind of pre-organize it.
Right.
But if you listen to our last podcast, we did an interview at Bia Vita with Zac Efron
and Brittany Bitch.
And it so happens it was Zac Efron's birthday yesterday.
And so when we wished him happy birthday, his wife texted us on the side and she was
like, because we...
In the birthday thing, we said, are you guys doing anything?
And he said, no.
And then we said, oh, we're going to celebrate for you at your favorite place, SMI, et cetera,
et cetera.
And then he was like, oh, how fun.
But then his wife messaged us on the side and was like, oh my gosh, you guys, we're going...
He doesn't know.
It's a surprise that we're going to SMI too for his birthday.
So small world swinging is here in Southern California.
We realize we usually run into somebody we know.
Yeah, especially now since we've been out there for quite a while.
Yeah.
So they're going to be there celebrating Zac Efron's birthday.
Wouldn't it be wild if the actual Zac Efron had the same birthday?
No, we had the...
We had the...
I can see it.
Yeah, that would be wild.
Anyway, so we're looking forward to it.
They're a fun couple and like we've talked about in our last podcast, low pressure.
So we will still have the ability to spread our wings.
Or legs.
Or how do you say that?
I don't feel like we are tied to somebody which I mean, not that I always feel like that.
I'm just saying like when you have friends there, sometimes you want to talk to your friends.
Yeah, it's hard to just spread your wings when you have your friends there.
Yeah.
So, but yeah, so it'll be fun.
I don't know what time they're getting there.
So this will not go up until after they get there because we don't want to ruin a surprise
for anybody.
And I don't know if they listen regularly, but we definitely told them theirs.
They're the ones that they did just posted.
So they probably listen to that and I don't know when they're going to listen to it.
So yeah, we don't want them to listen to that and then it roll into this one and then it's
like surprise ruined.
So anyway, happy birthday to him and anything else?
Well, we got next Saturday, the 10th, August 10th of 2024, we're going to be going back
to Via Vita, the place we just reviewed in our last podcast, the DTF community that we
go to all their parties, the LUS parties that hold their monthly parties.
They're doing a semi like a takeover slash partnership with Via Vita and they're doing
a big glow party there.
So it's going to be a daytime pool party from 12.30 noonish to late night and it's going
to be a glow party, it's going to be a fun time.
So August 10th, if you're in the SoCal area and you wish to go to that, you are allowed.
So check it out, Via Vita.
I don't know what the website is, but you can find them on Cassidy, Via Vita and also
DTF community.
And if you ultimately cannot find it, you do want to go.
You can always email us and I can give you the actual link to the website and yeah, you
can go there.
Check it out.
Yeah.
And then we are not doing it.
Maybe you, maybe you too can squirt on my foot.
We are not doing our podcast from SMI.
No.
So we don't have a space to do it since we're just going for the day and we really didn't
set it up ahead of time.
But we did get new equipment to make it easier to do podcasts on the road, let's say.
One thing, if you've listened to our podcast in the past, you can hear there's usage of
two mics.
But there's always four people in the interview.
So you can always hear a person yelling in the background, but it's hard to hear what
they're saying because their partner didn't pass the microphone or whatever the case may
be.
But now we have a whole setup where we can do four microphones at the same time.
So everybody will have an equal voice and the quality is going to be better.
So yeah, looking forward to utilizing that equipment on the first party next week in
August 10th.
We're doing our party there, our podcast there.
Yeah, we're going to do it there.
We'll bring it anywhere to test it at least and see who wants to put their voice out there.
Yeah, there's actually another podcaster is going to be there.
Front porch swingers are going to be there.
I don't think they're doing anything podcast wise.
They're there to hang out.
And they're good friends with the owner of Beavita.
So it'll be nice to meet them.
Yeah, maybe we could do one with them.
Maybe.
They're like, we're off guys.
Yeah, they might feel that way too.
They might, yeah.
They've been around for a while.
They're OG.
So they might be like, nope, we're chilling today.
But we'll probably do a say less.
Yeah, we might do a say less.
Yeah, that last say less was pretty good.
That was insane.
It was insane.
So if you didn't listen, if somehow you're listening to this one and you're not, you
haven't listened to the one before this one.
Listen to the one before this one.
All right, so if you're, if this is a first time listen for you guys, this is not the
usual podcast.
We normally do it on our studio back at the house.
This is the exclusive episodes we do from the road, which is called hitting the streets
with the sweets.
And this is where we capture life as it's live on a way to events.
So please check out our other podcast and go all the way back to one to really hear
the origin story.
The origin.
The origin story.
Sounds like we're some like villains or something.
This is our origin story.
It all began.
Yes.
So do that or at the very least listen to the one before this one because with our interviews
and our say less, it was a long one, but it was wild.
Yes.
It's a two hour, two hour podcast.
To the people that want them longer, you're welcome.
Yeah.
We've had some feedback that when I say, let's continue and you're like, no.
And then they've, they've said, you should continue.
But here's the thing is I'm never doing that again because that was a pain in the ass to
edit.
I know.
Oh, that's the problem with the problem.
I guess the problem with the ones that we do kind of on the fly in the event in the
events is that one, people aren't as used to, you know, editing their own names if they
don't want them to be said.
So you have to edit that.
And then two, there's a lot of screaming and you have to kind of bring levels and cut out
anything that like is just dead air or it's not as it's not a controlled environment.
Our studios, we got it set up.
It's a little more controlled.
So it's easier to maintain.
Right.
So any who we are looking forward to our new adventure today and we will recap it.
But I think we're going to recap Athena's first.
That's what we said because we literally, it's been like up two months since we did
the theme of that.
I don't remember the answer.
Liar.
You literally were talking about it the other day.
So I think we're going to do that.
And then depending on what happens at SMI, maybe it's own podcast, maybe we'll just do
it on the way home.
We always say that, but we never do because we're usually hungover.
Hungover and yeah.
Exhausted.
We have no energy.
Yeah.
We have no energy, but thank you guys for listening.
And really quick, you can email us at the sweet side of life podcast at outlook.com.
You can find us on Tiktok.
If you just look up the sweet side of life podcast and want to just know what we look
like, Tiktok's a good place.
Yeah.
Tiktok has, we got our faces out there.
So we're a, we're secretive, but not secretive.
What was the other thing?
Oh, please.
If you guys, if you're enjoying the show, give us a rating on your apples or your Spotify's.
If you don't like the show, then just keep it to yourself and don't listen anymore.
It's pretty easy.
But the more views you guys do, the more we go up in rankings and the more, more people
will see us.
We're in like 30 countries right now and I don't know how many countries there are,
but I want to be in all of them.
So that's our goal for August.
Two things to Google.
How many countries are there and what is that guy fraud's birthday?
All right.
We've got something to do for the rest of our trip.
For the rest of our ride down.
All right.
Take it away.
All right.
When enjoying the sweet side of life, keep your pineapples upside down, believe in unicorns
and keep shaking it up.
Love you, baby.
Love you.
