you can hear it. I don't know. I can hear it
pretty darn loud. But we have a whole week to
go through. We'll see if we can get through it
in one episode. It might turn into a double.
I don't know. I think it'll be two. Because there's
a lot of other stuff I want to touch on too.
And we went to say less as well. And yes. So
yeah, this might turn into a double episode.

but this bar is known... the swingers bar it's
just it is everybody ends up there and you know
weird shit happens you know so yeah it's gonna
be a really fun time and then we're something
in July too right I feel like I think we got
something yeah we're going to EDR oh yeah oh
yeah that's right July 11th through the 13th.
Assuming everything goes as planned with EDR,
we will be there. EDR is a touchy subject. So
as of right now, EDR is putting out all the advertisements
that they are renovating, they are remodeling,
they are... We're supposed to be ready to reopen
to the LS on July 1st. That's what they're saying
as of an email I got a couple of days ago. They
are full go and that's fantastic. However, I've
reached out to Don To do an interview to you
know talk about it and let's spice up this party
and Initially, he's like, yeah Let's talk tomorrow,
which was two weeks ago, I think. And then I
have not been able to get him on the phone. He's
leaving me ghosted on my text messages. And so
I don't know. I'm trying to be positive. I think
what's probably going on is he doesn't he doesn't
know me. Right. he doesn't know what I'm gonna,
how I'm gonna approach the podcast with him.
And he probably doesn't want to get himself in
trouble. Yeah. Which I understand. And I wasn't
planning on having like a gotcha moment. I just
wanted to like, bring the truth out. Let's talk
about it. And you know, let's bring this place
back to its former glory because We all better
from it better than its former glory. Let's make
it a little bit better but um So, you know what
if we don't end up talking to him before that
date, you know, that's our plan We're gonna go
out there. We're gonna spend the weekend out
there and Yeah, we'll bring in an honest review
and hopefully hopefully it's back Guess who's
back EDR is back. So if you guys don't know what
EDR is you I mean you have to live in Iraq because
we talk about it pretty much every episode, but
EDR is a, um, a clothing optional Ellis resort
in Palm Springs, California. And it is, uh, one
of our, one of our favorite places to go when
it's operating as an Ellis resort, but They pulled
some hanky panky over the past year. They pulled
the hanky panky. They pulled the whole hanky
panky. And they decided to, uh, you know, say,
screw you, LS. We're just going to be a adult
only. And that didn't quite last a year. So yeah,
we'll see. We'll see how it goes. Um, I've talked
to a couple of people that have gone there during
the week. And they say, you know, they had a
decent time, but, you know, we'll see. I just
feel like EDR has burned a lot of bridges within
the Ellis community. Yeah. And I was really hoping
to have an honest conversation with Dawn and
kind of help build that trust back up. Because
right now it feels like when... back when they
first started shutting down, it was like every
other day was a different story, a different
level of freedom that was taken away. Like it
started this and you couldn't do this and all
of a sudden you couldn't do this. And before
you know it, it was like Disneyland and not Disney,
not quite. doesn't Disneyland's people describe
things as Disneyland is being good. So that wasn't
just because you don't like Disneyland doesn't
mean that's how you should describe something
that people don't. Some people are like, Oh,
Disneyland, we love Disneyland. That sounds like
a fantastic place. No, so metaphor didn't really
work. It worked for me. It worked perfectly for
me. So anyways, so we are planning on going out
there with full intent. And that is also Dr.
Feelgood's birthday weekend. Mm -hmm. They're
gonna be at another resort SSR SSR which we don't
know anything about so We're we're hoping to
try to figure out a way to do both at least do
like a daytime drop -in at SSR and celebrate
a little bit with him and We haven't figured
out all the lit all the logistics yet But I'm
pretty sure as we're driving there, we're going
to listen to one of my favorite bands. Aurora
Wave. Thank you. You're paying attention. So
that is our most of our upcoming stuff. But what
have we done most recently? Really quick. We
did. Well, you said it to say less. We went to
say less meet and greet, which was really fun.
Tons of people that we hadn't seen in a while.
Yeah, actually like friends that Yep, it's so
funny. Like people just pop up really. Oh my
god. Yeah We met some new couples we did That's
say less productions you can find them on Cassidy
as well Yeah, so it was a fun time. Yeah, it's
at a vanilla bar, but they had a band going a
90s band and And it's pretty cool the the bar
They recognize They I think they recognize the
worth of our group Yeah, because we go there
and we travel with some pretty heavy numbers
and we love the drink and we party So he actually
puts aside multiple tables for us Yeah, he accommodates
for sure and he assigns a waitress just to us
and and he really takes care of us So we do enjoy
going there faux shower they are they are becoming
like the the beer or wine and beer garden of
Marietta. So looking forward to that. I'm not
sure if there's a say less going on in June,
because there's a lot going on in June. But if
there is, we will make sure we give you that
date, give you the info. And really quick, I
just wanted to, I wanted to talk about all of

it and all that. And a bunch of people in the
chat were like, oh, that's a dope shirt. Where
can I get it? Where can I get it? And I think
we need to start releasing some shit. Yeah. Right.
So That kind of like sparked something. I'm gonna
have to look into it I've never done like an
online store where you know, you upload images
and then people buy it and it produces I don't
gotta look into it, right? So another thing ladies
and gentlemen put in the cart before the horse
here friends just trying to get excited. So we've
talked about blue chew a lot and I love blue
chew And I reached out to them and they have
not reached back to me yet. I wanted to get like
a personalized like referral code that was something
like SSOL or something that made sense with the
podcast. They have not gotten back to me. So
my personal referral code is L -H -A -S. So when

you put in a coupon code, if you put that code
in, you will get 20 % off or excuse me $20 off

Yeah, so I actually this link that it's a clickable
link is also gonna be in our in our the text
of the podcast Whatever you call it the body
linker. Yeah this whole time when I've been telling
you to put your code in there I thought this
code was something like XBPQ two, four, six,
eight, thousand, million, trillion. I thought
it was something crazy. It's literally four letters.

of the first users of Butchie. I think I already

Yeah dope. I I gave it to Gave it to anybody
and they'd love it and they're begging me for
more. Yes So anyways, um, that was a long commercial
So speaking of blue chew, um, if you guys remember
a couple months back we did that episode With
swingers couch podcast in the hotel room and
we all cheered on the blue chew Not we all you
men all the men you didn't take any No. I mean,
you can, I guess. It stimulates your lady bits.
Yeah. You tried that long time ago with the Viagra
and I think you said it, it didn't do anything
like directly. Like it just kind of made you
warm. I think you said like it didn't necessarily.
I don't even remember doing that. Yeah. You and
I cheered to Viagra a long time ago. Did we?
Many years. But um, But anyway, so in that episode,
we did cheers to blue chew. And that actually
made me think about swingers couch on their discord.
They have a discord called swingers paradise.
I'm just hitting all the things right now. I'm
all fire. I heard someone just talking. That
was weird. It's a dog barking. That's a dog barking.
Yeah. Okay. There's a lot of noises coming from
outside today. So Was gonna say oh, yeah swingers
couch podcast. They have their discord and Mr.
Carlos my Latin lover was actually congratulating
us inside the discord we Our podcast is now in
the top 100 sexuality podcast in the entire universe
Like all of the universe all of the universes
all of the universe. We're actually I think he
I think it was 93 you told me 91 earlier Don't
know 92 91 somewhere in the 90s, which is pretty
dope That's like the top 1 % of sexuality podcast
so that's awesome. So when I mean he told me
that that kind of it gave me a little bit of
a fire because it's like, you know, you do this
and Sometimes I'm like, I don't want to do this
anymore, you know like it's it's fun like meeting
the people and once we're here and doing it it's
fun and But just to think it a motivation to
get up. It's like going to the gym. Yeah. The
motivation. I mean, we got to do it so late at
night and yeah. And all day I'm like, huh, what
are we going to talk about? Since we don't have
a outline. I know it's all relying on me. Oh,
come on. So I'll just let you talk to yourself
moving forward. Let's do it. So, so that's, that's
really cool. Um, so yeah. If you guys are enjoying
what you're here, make sure you, you know, review
us and rate us and tell us to your friends. So
maybe we can climb up to 90. That'd be pretty
dope. So, okay. I think we covered all of our
to -dos. We covered our to -dids. We did our
advertisements. Um, all right. I think we're
ready to, to, to restart that weekend. Restart
what weekend? Memorial day weekend. Ah, yes.
So when did that technically start? Was it Memorial
Day weekend? Was it Thursday? We started Thursday
night. Thursday night? Yeah. So we met, we flew
into Vegas Thursday evening, super late. I think
we arrived at like 11. Yeah, because our flight
kept getting delayed. Again. Yeah. the freaking
san diego airport you'd think just a simple flight
i know it's like literally 49 minutes that's
what they say literally not 50 not 48 49 minutes
and how are they like two hours late every time
i remember i checked our they should literally
just have one airplane that goes back and forth
like why they said oh it's because we brought
a plane in from that was delayed from um the
east coast and i'm like why now why is this plane
coming all the way from the east coast what's
crazy i mean it can but why is my flight going
to vegas they just have one plane it's like the
cruise ship from like sandy or from like long
beach to insanada it's a one ship yeah it goes
back and forth that's it you ride the ship you
get there i think there's enough people to to
facilitate that like even if you just took down
the amount of flights just like trimmed it down
maybe so but what's crazy is that morning of
the flight it was like eight o 'clock in the
morning and our flight was already delayed yeah
i don't get it how does yeah it's ridiculous
wild so that made us start drinking in the airport
which yeah for those that do that oh my god stupid
expensive i think our um our airport drinking
bill was more than our flight yeah Tickets, that's
what you said. Yeah, like our tickets were like
50 bucks and our drink like each and our drink
bill from sitting there in the airport was like
a hundred and eighty. Yeah. That's what they
get you. And we had like. No, I think it was
more than that. I don't remember. Because we
had like, I swear, it's like twenty five dollars
or thirty dollars a drink. When you're getting
like buffalo sour I didn't I'm getting I didn't
know we were doing I had one of their specialty
drinks that they had on the menu and Then I was
drinking Tito's and soda And you were drinking
vodka sprite. Yeah Anyway, so yeah, so we started
drinking on and then on the airplane we had to
have a cocktail Yes, I need to post some pictures
on TikTok I have I have some that I can post
because I don't want to post our friends faces
if yes, they don't want to be posted. But I do
have some like that don't have faces in them
that I can post. Yeah. So I should do that. But
I'm on Twitter, too. Yeah. I mean, X. So yeah.
So we so we got there super late. We were when
we arrived. Sam and Cole they already had like
another agenda that they were doing they were
there they were in Vegas But I think he was working
still or something and then she was doing some
other stuff. So We met up with with Michigan
couple yeah Tom and Liz we were actually sharing
we shared a suite with them So we had a two -bedroom
two -bathroom suite that we shared with them
for the weekend So we ended up just doing Where
we were was by the Cosmo. So I don't know if
I mean, if you've been to Vegas. So we went into
the Cosmo and all over my TikTok had been things
or like my reels or whatever had been things
of this speakeasy, the barbershop speakeasy.
And so I really wanted to go to it. And since
we were right there, I mean, we were dressed
for nothing. I had like no makeup on. My hair
was in a claw like it was just like. When we
arrived at the hotel, Liz was already in her
pajamas. She's like, oh, we're going out. Well,
she was like, oh, I just didn't know I got like
comfy because they had been there way earlier.
So they went and saw a show and did some stuff
earlier in the day. So she was like, oh, I just
didn't know because she was coming down off of
her drinking from earlier in the day. But she's
like, I can get ready really fast. So we. Went
over to the barbershop, sit in line, one of your
favorite things to do. But once you went inside,
it was pretty cool. It was crowded. I mean, it
was nut to butt. Yeah. And but it wasn't what
you were expecting, right? Was it? I don't know.
Honestly, I had no expectations. I know Tom and
Liz weren't expecting it because I kind of just
told them it was a speakeasy, which it is. So
they were thinking speakeasy is like how we went
to speakeasy, but it's like a concert speakeasy.
Like there is a band in there. I had seen pictures
and I knew they had bands. So I knew it was going
to be more of a concert hall than it was just
a small, but it was tiny. Yeah. Had a nice stage,
good sound system. Um, it was, it was It was
a fun place, but the layout was tough. Yeah,
there was like a lot of choke points. A lot of
choke points and they did bottle service, so
everybody was running people over constantly
with the... Because they allowed for a lot of
standing room and then they had like couches
in the middle of the freaking whole thing and
then couches on the sides. It was like hallways
essentially that you're standing in. So you just
felt like very much like I can't find a place.
I was constantly like looking over my shoulder.
I literally was basically in the sound guy's
lap at one point. I'm like, I'm just going to
stand over here. And I essentially was like sitting
in his lap. And so, but it was, it was, I don't
know. I I'm glad I did it. I'm glad we went.
I think I would go back again. The drink wasn't
that good. No, the drink wasn't the best for
me since like we just thought that was our fault.
Yeah. But I think like, for me personally, like
we, we just got to Vegas, we got in the cab,
we got to the hotel, everything was like, yeah,
a lot of tension through the airport. I mean,
flying sucks. So I was already kind of like high
strung. Oh, we forgot to say that you got finger
banged in the airport. Yes, that was hot. That
was hot. So, um, but just, I was already kind
of on edge, like I wasn't loose. So it was kind
of anxiety. But I thought the place was cool
and has a lot of potential. So I wouldn't mind
going back there. But unlike a second night when
we can kind of. Yeah. And maybe maybe like reserve
a table or something. Be the bottle service.
Yeah. I don't know about bottle service, but
I'm sure you can reserve like there were tables
that you could reserve like high tops and stuff,
too. So, yeah. But backtracking, we're going
through TSA. And you have your podcast equipment
would end, which ended up not being used. And
it should have. And I've told you, I told this
is what you need to do, babe. Whenever I say
get your podcast equipment out and you're like,
it's not a good time. Just do it. Whatever records
records. And if we play it, we play it. If we
don't, we don't. But at least we did it now because
you might catch like gold. You never know. Looking
back, no conversation that happened was gold.
But the podcast wasn't out, so people might have
been more. Yeah, maybe. But I'll let you edit
that. I'll let you edit. Oh, that's why you don't
want to do it in an edit. Then why do you even
bring it? Because you want to get fingered by
TSA. Yes. I thought there might be a time where
it made sense. And in my opinion, there wasn't.
There wasn't as much downtime that I potentially
expected. so that's because you kept us on a
tight schedule i was trying to get beard was
like beard was like maybe beard was like i really
enjoy going on vacation with you guys but maybe
next time we schedule in some naps got no time
for naps naps are for the week sleep but i'm
dead exactly the words of bon jovi i'm still
catching up so no we um so going through um going
through security i have i have my backpack Backpack,
backpack. Backpack, which has a CPAP in it, which
you're supposed to pull the CPAP out separately,
and then it had an iPad in it, which you had
to pull that out. And then I put the mixer bag
through the thing, but the mixer, I. In retrospect,
I can see now it qualifies as an electric device.
No, you had the mixer still in the suitcase.
You had a carry -on suitcase. You didn't take
the mixer even out of the suitcase. It was just
completely in. It was in its own bag and in the
suitcase. That's right. So everything got, my
entire night got flagged. So that the TSA agent
pulls me over to the side and I forgot to take
off my belt. Yeah. So he had his belt on. He
had a backpack that had all of his shit in it
not taken out properly. He clearly was not listening
to the woman yelling at all of us. He had his
belt on still. And then he had a separate suitcase
that had a mixer in it and steel cups, I think.
And like it was just like that was a water. That
was on the way home. No way home. No, no, that
was the way home. Was it the way home? Yeah.
Yeah, it was my home. So so so I go through the
the security thing and He calls me over. He's
like, all right I'm gonna have to I want I need
to patch you down and he turns me around and
he shows me on The screen the areas he has to
pat and there's just a big red and watch on my
crotch And I'm like, all right, let's go. He
goes, do you want to do it here? Do you want
to go somewhere private? I go, we're doing it
here, bud. We're doing it. I put my hands up.
I'm like, go. And he went. He did. He went. He
kept your nuts and everything. He played with
everything. And then finally we get over to where
all of my suitcases were apprehended and pulled
to the side and went through everything. Literally
all of the things you were carrying with you
were being. But TSA, I have one. One request
Be consistent be fucking consistent. It's never
consistent because make let's make one thing
the same rules everywhere So cuz coming back
from Vegas, I took all my shit out in line or
in line and they he wavy goes We don't care about
any of that Like, it was pointless. You didn't
have to take off anything. Nothing. You didn't
have to take off your belt. You didn't have to
take off your shoes. You didn't have to take
off... You didn't have to take anything out of
anything. Yeah, out of my bag. But I did it because
I was trying to be... Yeah, so we had it all...
We were like carrying like multiple things through,
passing by dogs and all this stuff. Yeah, just...
I don't mind the extra steps. Just be fucking
consistent Like you didn't need to do all of
that like well I got I got fucking raped in San
Diego because I didn't do this So I'm trying
not to get my finger blasted whole again, you
know I'm just trying to go home So anyway, so
back to you Barbara. So we finished that place.
That was dope. And then I think Did we do food
at that point? I don't remember. Oh We did so
Tom wanted to do so we were gonna go the other
thing I wanted to do was go to the There's a
speakeasy pizza place inside of Cosmo Cosmos
like a million speakeasies different types. So
I was like, let's go to the speakeasy pizza place
so we go up to the floor find it find the hallway
with the album covers on it, et cetera, et cetera.
And but there's a long line. And you're like,
I literally just stood in the line. I'm not standing
in another line. Two lines, two lines. And then
we're just like, OK, well, where else? Where
else do you want to go? And then Tom had in his
brain that he wanted to go to the Taco Bell Cantina.
And I had never heard of this up to this point.
Yeah, I had. Actually, once he said it, I was
like, oh, yeah, I've heard of that. So. The Taco
Bell Cantina is across the street by Planet Hollywood
and there's a DJ, there's alcohol. There's Taco
Bell, of course. They have like the yards. Yeah,
they have the yards. And then you can get like
a full bar drink too. Yeah, so it's two stories.
So downstairs where you order your food. Two
story Taco Bell folks. Yeah, two stories. With
a DJ. With a DJ and alcohol. So you can get your
Baja Blast with liquor. By this point it was
what, 2, 3 a .m.? Yeah, probably. Yeah. So...
So yeah, so you order your food and then we went
upstairs that's where the DJ is and then they
have a full bar up there with the bartender and
everything and You can get married there for
seven hundred and seventy seven dollars it includes
monogram shirts a chiro cake an officiant A reception
at Taco Bell probably some party packs Taco and
burrito party packs. I would hope yeah, and you
just have to give them What was it 45 minutes
heads up? Yeah, it's like 45 minute. Yeah advanced
notice or something like that Would you renew
your vowels at Taco Bell your vowels my vowels?
You review your consonants At Taco Bell, I mean
that's a story it is I do want to renew our vowels
at some point Don't know that might be the way
to go. I mean shit everybody does Elvis and yeah,
maybe Elvis at Taco Bell We'll have to think
about that one bucket list yeah anyway, so So
that was interesting and fun and not the last
time we will have been there And so I think that
pretty much concludes Thursday night, right?
Yeah, I think Thursday night was the first time
Tom saw my tits. That wouldn't be the first time.
In person? In person, yes. Like they're all over
the profile. In person. Yes, that was interesting.
And you have all of us naked. Oh, that's right.
Me and Liz naked. That was Thursday night? Yeah.
I work fast. Yeah, that's right. I have a rule
that when the women are in hotel rooms, tops
are not allowed to be on. And I enforced that
rule. And he went to bed. And then, yeah, we
had you topless. We played a cards against humanity
topless. Had her topless and a thong. Yeah, she
got almost fully naked. Yeah. I think if I just
pushed. Yep. Well, had he been awake? Yes. I
was like, I'm like, this is pretty far for him
sleeping. He's gonna be really bummed. I think
he was already the next day. We're like, he's
like, what? We should have taken pictures. I
should have. With our tits in his face while
he was asleep. So that was Thursday night. Yeah.
So Friday, we did all of the tiki bars. Yes.
Just Tom and Liz and us Right Yeah Yes Yeah,
because the rest of our party wasn't coming we
did breakfast sort of with With Sam, but then
she was they were doing more Maria. That's right
Maria Beach Whatever it's called the topless
Place at Mandalay Bay. That's Mandalay. I think
so So that's right. So we did um, yeah, we went
to our tiki bars Introduced them to a boss. We
went to My strip club. Oh, yeah, we went to so
we tried to set the bar really low for this trip
club because it should be set really low. It's
In Chinatown, it's not even called a club. Let's
call it like a it's like a dive bar strip building
it's a dive bar with a Pole in the middle of
it, which the dancers occasionally dance Yeah,
they don't even want to be up there like literally
one girl was checking her email while she was
on stage Normally they would dance for two songs
So she went out there she kind of did wait half
a dance for one way and only goes looking one
there, too The way it normally goes is the first
dance. They're in lingerie The second dance is
when their top comes off That's how the, you
know, it happens there. But yeah, the second
song, she like went over to the corner and just
kind of leaned over and was checking her email.
You just see the light from her phone. And the
DJ was like, all right, so for the second song,
she should be up there dancing, but I'm not really
sure what she's doing, like on the microphone.
We're just like laughing. But that's her place.
My dancer was not there again. No, she wasn't
Liz gave some dollar bills to one of the the
dancers But I guess because the other one wasn't
getting as much attention she went and pouted
in the corner and checked her email I don't know
So anyway, so we weren't there very long. The
girls were not even like trying, like none of
the girls even came up to us. They did, one girl
did. Oh, I don't remember. Yeah, she did. I remember
the waitress being the most friendly of them.
The waitress was friendly. But one girl came
over and said hi, but we weren't interested.
Said hi, didn't say hi to me. Said hi to all
of us, like as a group. But then Liz started
getting her buzz on, so she was feeling herself.
And I was like, we're going to get kicked out
of here or in a fight. She has to go she was
dancing and shaking her booty like in the middle
like five times the amount of energy that any
of the dancers had in there and Had we just moved
her on the stage and made it amateur night She
probably could have made made some money to you
know, pay off our drinks or something But like
you said most dancers don't like when the audience
is Upstaging them. Yeah, I wonder why I don't
get it at all. I mean So yeah, it was only a
matter of time. Yeah, I was like we gots to go
So we did we did tiki bar strip club. We did
our our speakeasy moss, porfavor And while we
were there at our tequila speakeasy. Yeah, well,
we're sitting there. We're having a good time.
We're getting ready to order some tacos. And
then I get a phone call from Beard. We don't
normally communicate via the phone calls like
text for text. Yeah, we're all text. If any of
our friends calls, we're like, oh shit, that's
it's serious because none of our we really don't
call any. I mean. Very rarely do we call or talk
to any of our friends on the phone. It's all,
we have multiple text groups with everybody involved
and we actually started a full Vegas text group.
Yeah, exactly. That had all the attendant parties
in and that's how we've communicated up to this
point. So I get a call from him and I knew they
were in route. They drove. They were driving.
It was about a four to five hour drive and I
answer and he's like, dude, I'm in Baker right
now and and but is like passing out next to me
and and Well, he thought at first she was seizing.
Yes. Well, he wasn't sure he wasn't sure she
was just like in and out of consciousness and
and Having issues and he's like, is there a hospital
around and I'm like fucking Baker like Baker's
nothing the desert There's a thermometer. That's
it to tell you it's fucking hot So I go on my
phone and I'm trying to find a doctor's office,
but there's literally nothing out there You're
lucky as a gas station. I was looking for veterinarian
offices. I'm like somebody with medical experience.
Yeah I was on Yelp. I found one business on Yelp.
I called it. It was a dial tone They were clearly
out of business. Yeah, I was we were all like
Searching everything. Yeah, so then you called
him back. So I called him back and I told him
I was like there's you're you're an hour and
a half either way either you continue going towards
Vegas and you find something at state line or
you go back to like bar still which is the next
biggest city and I said but honestly my my thing
I would do would be to just pull over to a major
crossroads and call 911 because you'll get an
ambulance where they can you know take care of
her in the ambulance yeah at a minimum, you know,
that they can, you know, handle most instances
within the ambulance. So he ended up doing that.
So we're like, just talk about. Yeah, it was
like energy, obviously energy killing, not like
not in a bad way, just like, I mean, in a bad
way, but like in a way that like shit like our
friends aren't doing well, there's something
going on like. we can't there's only so much
we can do there's literally nothing we can where
we're at like yeah you know other than googling
for him or whatever like we really couldn't do
anything else yeah um but then you're just like
man i wish i hope she's okay like hopefully this
isn't that serious and that it's just like dehydration
or something yeah we had no idea Because I mean
because he really didn't know he said he was
just driving and then she was in and out of it
He didn't know if she was seizing if she was
fainting like what was happening. Yeah, and she'd
never done it before So obviously was freaking
him out which it Clearly anybody would be freaked
out So that so so he ended up calling the ambulance
they came and picked her up They put her in the
ambulance and then he followed in the car and
they actually went back to Barstow Yes, they
ended up like going another hour and a half in
the opposite direction of Vegas. Back to California.
Yeah, back into California. So they got her in
the hospital, they got her on fluids, they checked
her out. And it seems to be dehydration and just
probably just the body was just tired. Like,
you know, it's hard to say but Nothing serious.
They didn't find anything serious. Yep, she checked
out. She's to this day, she's good. Yeah, nothing's
happened since then that I mean that we know
of. Yeah. But um, so we're sitting there and,
and we're like, oh, you know, that sucks, you
know, let us know how everything's going. And
then he's like, well, she wants to come to Vegas
still. And we're like, damn. Okay. All right.
Well, what's your ETA? and he's like well they're
gonna you know uh give her some more fluids and
then you know as long as she's feeling better
we're gonna get back on the road and you know
be out there late tonight so uh we're like okay
the butt is coming yeah so that was good i mean
it did obviously like suck a little energy out
of us for that afternoon but but yeah it was
once we felt once we knew she wanted to come
to vegas still we were like okay she's she's
not feeling like complete shit yeah she's good
she's yeah whatever it was she just needed an
ivy yeah i mean it yeah it got her it got her
so so that was really cool so that put us into
friday what did we do after mas por favor well
that's when we went to the strip club After mosque
before we went strip club. Yeah, so cuz all of
it's in the same like the yeah thing as mosque
before and then across the street is plating
in Sam's and then was it Friday night we went
to Fremont. Yeah, so we had So Friday night is
when everybody was supposed to come in that we
were like meeting up with so the Palm Springs
couple which they're mad at their name and I'll
figure out new names for them, but Yeah, it was
funny. A couple days ago, what's his name? Beard
was asking, who is the Palm Springs couple? And
we're like, duh. He's like, but they don't live
there. I'm like, that's where we met them. That's
where we met them. That's just how they are in
our brain. Yeah. I'm sure we can figure out.
You know what? I have another idea. Let's call
them the, let's call them the Renfair couple.
I don't think they're going to like that either.
They're all about the renter. We've never been
to a renter. But they're all about the renter.
I know. But that's I think the point was that
anyway. Now you got me. I didn't know they hated
that name. I mean, he just said, come on, come
on. He was like the Palm Springs couple. Come
on, because they just started listening to our
podcast, I think, on the way to Vegas. Yeah.
Yeah, they started. All right. Well, do better,
sir. Let's see what you got. Give me something.
Anyway, so they were coming in that day. They
drove as well. Sam and Cole were already there,
but they were doing their own thing. And so then
they were meeting back up with us. And then of
course, Tom and Liz were there and then Beard
and Butt were on their way. So we were all, but
Beard and Butt had already decided like for Friday
night, they were just going to stay. Just turn
in. Yeah, turn in, get some good night's sleep.
Yeah. And then meet up with us on Saturday. Yeah.
So Friday, we all go to we're all we all plan
to meet for dinner. Well, the six of us. So it's
Sam and Cole, Tom and Liz and us. We plan to
meet for dinner because the rest of them are
still driving in. So we make a reservation at
the steakhouse at the D, which was really, really
good. That was out of all. Spoiler alert we ate
nothing but steak houses houses this entire whole
trip all for all the dinners every dinner That's
what we did. Um, but the first one was my favorite.
Yeah, it was good So we're sitting at we're sitting
at the I'm sitting there. We're waiting for a
reservation to start. We're waiting for Sam and
Cole to get there obviously I mean the whole
time Liz and Tom and and Like the four of us
we traveled together because we were in the same
hotel room. So Wherever we were there But anyway,
I'm just gambling we're getting a drink and you
are like, oh I'm getting a text from the Palm
Springs couple couple they want to know if you
can check your booking to see what your price
is for Planet Hollywood to see if you get a better
price and then I was like, oh yeah, sure. I'll
check so Originally, they were supposed to stay
with Sam and Cole, but Sam and Cole's reservation
got flip flop. Like their first booking was the
big room and their second booking was a small
room, which is why they did, which left. Yeah,
which left the Palm Springs couple last minute
kind of looking for a room. And it was a holiday
weekend. So super busy. Like most of the hotels
were sold out. Our hotel that we stayed at was
sold out. So they were looking they're like looking
around. And I guess the planet was right across
the street from where we stayed. So I'm like,
yeah, sure. I'll look. So I look and I'm like,
oh, yeah, it's like 153 or whatever. Yeah. Or
156 or something. And then you're like, OK. And
then you tell her you're texting her and I'm
looking on booking and and I'm like, do they
want me to book it? And then you're like, yeah,
they said to book it because hers is more. And
I'm like, OK, I'll book it and I'll put it under
his name. So I book it. And then I get I go back
to the email to see. To send it to them just
so they have their reservation confirmation and
stuff and I see the price went from 153 to nine
thousand six hundred and sixty four dollars my
stomach dropped. I'm like, what the actual fuck
did I do? I was like, cause I was gambling and
I was drinking and I was like, did I hit a button?
Like, did I buy the penthouse? I'm like, what
the hell did I do? When you went back to look
at the room, it said like the ultra king, hip
room. And I'm like, you got like the fucking,
this is where rock and roll bands stay. Like
Zeppelin doesn't even get this room. Yeah, exactly.
So I was like, when I saw the word hip, I'm like,
oh shit. So I'm like, I'm like, oh, God, what
did I do? And I'm like going back and then I'm
looking and I'm like, no, it's like 300 square
feet. I'm like, it's not a freaking penthouse.
I'm like, what in the holy hell? So I'm going
back and I'm looking and then. We, you call them
and you're like, I don't know, there's something
going on. Now it's saying that the room was like
over $9 ,000 and she's so then she's on, they're
still driving. So she's on, she's looking, she's
like, yeah, I'm seeing what you're seeing. So
she's videoed it where it shows one price. And
then when you click it, it then shows the 9 ,664
price, like right before you hit book. Like you
hit next so many times. And then that very last
chance is when it changed on you. But I don't
even think it did that to me. I think it went
all the way through. So I'm like, oh my god,
I just spent 10 grand on a freaking room that
I'm not even staying in? Are you kidding? Hitting
me. I was like you're gonna stay in that room.
I was hallucinating I was like, oh my gosh, this
is the wild so I'm trying to get on the phone
with booking No, of course, they're terrible
Not answering. I'm like calling planets at this
point. It's a third party. So those are always
scary Yeah, so I'm calling planet Hollywood and
I get some lady and she's like, I don't know
you have to go through booking I'm not sure like
that is weird She was really nice, but no help.
So I called booking back I'm like on hold with
them. Meanwhile, we're trying to be sat for our
dinner So I'm like on the phone all our friends
are there and I'm like, oh my gosh trying to
figure this out Get back on the phone with maybe
we won't be eating steak. Yeah, exactly Yeah,
I'm like, I don't even have an appetite at this
point. I'm like, oh my gosh, this is crazy I
get back I'm call Hollywood Planet Hollywood
back again because I'm like I just need to talk
to somebody so finally I got a lady on the phone
who was Way more helpful. She's like hold on.
She goes that's our price when we've sold out
So basically if you go to a hotel, which we know
from doing the plush takeovers at the Marriott.
So if you look at the Marriott that we stay at
that plush takes over for for New Year's Eve,
if you go to book a room there, they're like
all the rooms are like 10 grand because essentially
they just don't want you to book like book there.
But I guess if you're going to pay 10 grand for
a 300 square foot room, they'll let you have
it. But yeah, so they'll kick somebody else.
Yeah, exactly. So they're like, that's the price
we put like that gets put into the system when
we're at capacity and i'm like okay well it let
me book it and if you're at capacity how would
you even like let me book it or whatever she's
like clearly it's like a glitch or whatever um
are your friends like and i'm like and this isn't
even my room like i was booking for a friend
she's like are your friends here the only way
they can do this is they're gonna have to go
to the front desk they're gonna have to you know
tell them like obviously like this needs to be
switched the front desk needs to cancel your
booking reservation and then just if they have
a room available, give them a room at the same
price or whatever at the front desk. So anyway,
she's a she's magic with people. Palm Springs
couple she's you know finagles her way through
all the things and gets what she needs and what
she wants and she knows how to sweet talk people
and um she figured it out she said that the manager
wasn't the most pleasant person to deal with
but they did figure it out and my card never
got charged the ten thousand dollars or nine
hundred and sixty six nine thousand six hundred
and sixty four dollars like a number that'll
be ingrained in my brain forever that was the
most expensive hotel room ever Yeah. So anyway,
that got figured out, which was like, OK, OK,
is it over yet? Like our like butt was in the
hospital. I'm being charged nine thousand dollars
for a room like canvas. Can we just like fresh
start this day or this weekend? So we had a great
steak dinner. Oh, our steak dinner was fantastic.
Highly recommend the steakhouse at the D. I can't
remember the name of it, but actually, oddly
enough, Tom and Liz had been to the actual original
steakhouse that this was because it's Detroit
based. Yeah. So the original one is in Detroit
and they're obviously from Michigan. So they
had actually been to it and said it was really
good. And so I agree. I want to I got to plug
them. The steakhouse it's called Andiamo steakhouse
Andiamo Andiamo Andiamo Andiamo It's got a four
point six out of two thousand. It's pretty darn
good. Yeah, it was good But yeah, so and then
the waiter, you had your phone out. Yeah, on
our on my lock screen when we're with like minded
friends, I always have like a topless picture
of you or because it always like generates like
looks and stuff. So I had just looked at my email
and I set it down on the counter and at your
table on the table and your breasts were just
out. Well, I have, I had pieces, but still the
same thing. So the waiter came, came around the
corner. He goes, Oh, thank you. He goes, very
nice. Thank you very much. That's your tip, sir.
Um, so then after that we would just went out.
To Fremont, right? Yeah, we went to Fremont Street.
We got our big alcoholic overpoured beverages
because they have a heavy pour on Fremont. And
then we saw the live music that was there. And
then we ended up going into the Golden Nugget
because we had to pee. But then we ended up getting
recruited into the club upstairs at the Golden
Nugget. Oh, well, the Palm Springs couple ended
up joining us at that point. Yeah. So they ended
up joining us on Fremont Street. Yep. And yeah,
so we were in the golden nugget. And then we
as many times as we've stayed there, we'd never
gone up to that club. It's I don't know. It's
it always seemed fancier than me. Yeah. And the
guy was like, no, he like he's looking at all
of us and he's like, no dress code. You're fine.
Like it's good because we currently don't match
any dress code. I'm not a fancy guy. So for me
to go to anything that ends with the word club.
would typically require pretty major modifications.
Unless it's a less club. Exactly. So but it ended
up being a pretty cool place. Now, I mean, we
always stay at the Nugget. Yeah. I mean, it's
nice, like the rooftop. Yeah. How it overlooks
Fremont Street, like they had a patio that overlooked
it. And yeah, I mean, it wasn't it wasn't like
crazy busy. It wasn't packed. You could get up
to the bar. Yeah. They had a good DJ. Yeah. Great
outside. Outside, you could hear the live music
from the street. Yeah. I had a really good time
there. Yeah. So the vibe was vibing there. Like,
I mean, other than the fact that beard and butt
weren't there, they were sleeping. They had made
it, but they were. Oh, the other thing that had
happened. So I had booked everybody's I had booked
a lot of people's rooms because of my booking
status. I was getting. Yeah. Through booking
.com, I was getting like better rates than everybody.
So I was like, I'll just book them, put them
in your name. So. Beard originally wasn't Bearden,
but we're originally not going to come until
Saturday. They decided to come up Friday. So
I added an additional booking, like a room for
them for Friday night, which was separate from
their Saturday Sunday. So when I did that, I
did it drunk. I think we were at a stay less
thing, actually, and I did it drunk. So at first
I didn't put it into his name. I put it in my
it was just in my name. But then I went back
in and I changed it like. Right. Like almost
the next day or whatever. I changed it to his
to put his email and everything. He gets to the
hotel after all of the stuff he just went through
with. But. ended up being probably, you know,
eight hour drive. Yeah. I mean, hospital, the
emotional distress, like just all the things
you want to do is go to bed and we're in this
bar and it's loud as fuck and he's calling and
I'm like, yeah. And he's like, the lady is it
under my name? And I'm like, yeah. And so I screenshotted
it and sent it and circled his name. It's under
your name. And then she's like, he's like, she
can't find it. She needs something with both
of our names on it. I'm like, that's insane.
I was like, even if I was married to you, I wouldn't
have it. a document with me with both of our
names on it. It's like I carry around my water
bill. Oh, look what I have in my pocket. Yeah,
I'm like, what kind of insanity is that? I was
like, your name is on it. I'm like, I'll take
a picture of my driver's license if you need
me to and send that to you. But I'm like, there's
nothing that's going to have both of our names
on it. That doesn't even make sense. And I'm
like, and my name shouldn't even be on it because
I changed it to your name. it's under my credit
card, but it's paid in full. So she shouldn't
even be asking for my credit card information.
It would be just whatever credit card you want
to put on hold, like put on for the incidentals.
So I'm like, and what's crazier is Tom had checked
in. I did the exact same thing for our room that
we were staying in with them. He had checked
in the day before and had no issue whatsoever.
And it was the exact same situation where I booked
it under my credit card, but I just changed the
name to his, and he had no issue checking in
on Thursday afternoon. And so I'm just like,
of course this happens after all of the things
you guys have just been through. I'm like, this
weekend couldn't. It's like. It's like the weekend
that shouldn't have been. It can't get worse,
but it does. It's like, oh, my gosh. For him.
But I mean, it gets worse. Yeah. But then when
we're in downtown, like it was it was a vibe,
like everybody was vibing. I felt like it was
a really fun time. Sam and I went to the bathroom
and got caught up in the Cupid shuffle on the
way back. I fell into the Cupid shuffle. But
it was a good, that was a good night. It was
a good time. Yeah. Yeah. And then we went back
to the hotel and turned out Beard and Butt were
like the end of our hallway and we were at the
other end of the hallway. They were like three
doors down. So then he came out, he came out
naked. He, we'll talk more about this later,
but he is a horn dog, Beard. Lead it up to this
event in our Vegas group chat. He was swearing
to everybody. He wasn't gonna masturbate. I'm
not gonna masturbate or come. I'm holding out
for this weekend. Beware ladies, you're gonna
get the full load. And then every day he would
slip. And I think he slipped up like that morning
of. Did he? I thought he had like two days under
his belt. He might have had two. But then when
we got back to the room, um, he came out into
the hallway and was naked jumping around. And
I think just the girls being that close to him
being naked, I'm pretty sure he went inside and
jerked off right there. So, so yeah, his, he
still to this day swears like he was, no, he
was not. No sir. Um, so yeah, we're going to
talk more about that and him and his, uh, self
preservation, but yeah, you are right. We are
going to go into a second. Yeah. I was just thinking
we'll cut it here on Friday and then our LS,
our actual LS activities start on Saturday. So
we'll, uh, we'll do our best to come back. Normally
we do every other week, but we'll do our best
to come back this Thursday and this coming Thursday
and to finish this recap. And then, um, I think
that's doable. Right, let me get back in the
town and we should be able to I don't see no
reason why not So, um, but yeah, keep in mind
guys if you don't hear from us or actually just
