[snorts] >> Hello. Hello. Welcome. Thank you for joining me tonight. It's just going to be me. It's just going to be me. Um I do see one question here. Can someone ask Chad if he identifies as a capitalist? He does not. >> [laughter] >> Interesting question though. Who does identify as a capitalist at this point in human history? Um thank you everybody for joining me. My sister is not going to be here. My mom is not going to be here. My dad is not going to be here. It's just going to be me. Oh. There we go. Okay, and here we go. DeetersGoneWild, how is the new Michael movie? Any Bubbles action? I saw it. I liked it. I know people feel this way and that way about Michael Jackson. Um I love his music and I thought the movie was pretty good. There's a lot of Bubbles action in it. There's a computer generated Bubbles that um has a lot of screen time. It's that part of it was like a little off-putting and the I mean the movie obviously skips over some big [ __ ] Um but overall I enjoyed it. It was fun to just like be reminded of uh how famous he was and like what he did for American pop culture back in the day. Brickanee Mills, do you watch Special Forces? I think it'd be fun to see Challenge players on there like CT West or Bananas. Not sure they'd handle being older. I watched the first two seasons of it because they had Bachelor players on it. Of course I watched season 2 with Nick Viall and Tyler Cameron on it, but I haven't watched it since. I did enjoy it though. I liked seeing Nick Viall and Tom Sandoval fist fight each other. Steven English 198, why didn't you guys bring up Mary Lou's constant big Mike references with Peppermint on Wednesday? Would have loved to see her explain why she believes that. Uh didn't come up. My apologies. We we were I don't know. It didn't even cross my mind honestly. I was just like happy that my mom seemingly was open up a little bit and can't thank Peppermint enough obviously for the the time and the patience for joining us for that conversation. K Van Wingle 777, hoping Bob gets to feeling better soon. As are we all. Adriana Casali 7687, what do you think Bob's reaction will be to Mary Lou liking Peppermint so much? Uh >> [laughter] >> I don't know. I don't think my dad's having much of a reaction to anything at the moment. I'm I'm not even sure that he's aware of the Peppermint episode. Time will tell um what my dad's reaction to that will be. Greg Kinnear speaks in third person. When an American working in England quits their job, do they turn in a declaration of independence? Nice. I don't know how that works uh in England, but um nice. Good comment there. And Greg Kinnear speaks in third person again. When will you show Mary Lou the LEGO vids? What are the LEGO vids? Oh, the Iranian ones? I bet she's seen those at this like who hasn't seen those at this point? I feel like those videos are um they're everywhere. You can't not see them. They must have gone through her feed. But maybe I will put together a couple of the best ones and show them. I mean they're making them like daily. Whatever Trump does, there's a new LEGO video that comes out that day. I feel like they are winning the internet war against Trump, which is um no small task obviously cuz that guy's on there constantly. James Cheery or James Kiri maybe 6573, is Mary Lou aware that Donald John Trump's DOJ took over a case from state authorities into Epstein's New Mexico ranch in 2019 and then halted the investigation? Is she aware of it and has it been brought up to her? I guess are two different um questions. Is she aware of it? I don't know. Have I brought that up to her? Yes, I believe we whenever that news was breaking a month ago maybe or something, I do believe that I brought that up to her and she had of course no comment. Miss Simon 1984, Chad, what do you think SCOTUS' recent decision will do for race relations in the country? Nothing good obviously. I mean it's like this administration obviously we we know is extremely racist. Like one of the first things they did when they got in was in quotes abolish DEI. So I don't think it's surprising necessarily that they did this, but the fact that it's done and now the Voting Rights Act basically is is rendered null and void, I can't imagine that's going to be good for race relations and especially in the states where like Louisiana had these um you know, kind of legally mandated two voting districts that were predominantly black citizens in Louisiana and now their votes are just like meaningless. That those districts have basically been erased by the white politicians in Louisiana. I can't imagine that's going to be good in Louisiana or any of these red states where this exact same thing is about to happen. I and it's it's crazy to me that I guess it's not crazy. I mean this is why Trump put these people on the Supreme Court. It's so they could overturn all kinds of things that give people basic civil rights. Roe v. Wade, now the Voting Rights Act, who knows what's next? But yeah, it's not going to be good for it. And it also divides the country into like hardcore red state blue state. So my sister and I talked about this a little bit today. So if you live in a red state, but you're you know, you vote Democrat or or don't vote Republican, your vote literally is meaningless. And so you feel I can only assume like a prisoner in one of those states. Like you're trapped and and you have no real agency. I think it's it's going to be very bad and we're going to see it in these midterm elections. We already are. That Louisiana election that they the election was happening. People were doing mail-in and early voting and they were just like, nope, [ __ ] that. Election on pause. We need to redraw this these voting districts immediately. It's not going to be good. Bassoonanon, adopting an old cat in a few weeks. What is your top tip for a first-time cat parent? Bravo. Amazing for amazing episode with Peppermint. Thank you very much. Um my first-time tip for a cat parent, I don't know. I I don't know. All cats are different. You got to kind of figure out what your cat is like. Do they like to play rough? Do they like to be left alone? Are they a snuggler? Do they want their space? They're like little people. You just kind of have to like figure out what this cat's personality is going to be and then try to cater to their every need and treat them like royalty. That's my best advice I suppose. Um Pasadena Ash, what would Bob's drag name be? I mean it can't be Bob the drag queen obviously. I don't know what his drag name would be. I'll I'll ask my mom that and see if she can come up with it. Or my sister probably would be better at that than than my mom. >> [laughter] >> Abby Can Cook, in the new Joel S vid today, he shows the context in which Obama says the name Michael. It had nothing to do with his wife, yet your mom uses that to call her a man. Will you show her the vid? I have not seen the vid. I don't know what the vid is. But um yeah, possibly. If if you Abby Can Cook, if you will email me that, the Obama thing. Or no, it's it's a Joel S vid. I'll just look on his YouTube. I'll find that. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. We'll see what she says about it. Um The Fickle Truth, Chad and Haley, four T assass Chad Chad and Haley, four T ass ass assass Oh, assass four Trump assassination attempts. So sorry. Jesus Christ. Isn't Occam's razor a lot of people hate Trump? A few are crazy enough to do something about it. LA lacks security is complacency. I Yeah, I guess. I mean Occam's razor works real good unless there's an actual conspiracy happening. Like do you For example, this is where Occam's razor falls apart. Occam's razor is basically a a theory that says like all things [snorts] being considered equal, the most obvious reason for something is usually the correct reason. So in this case it would be that a lot of people want to kill Trump, so all these assassination attempts are real. However, what Occam's razor fails to realize is that there are several situations in which the most obvious reason for something is not the actual reason. And it discounts all of them. That that theory does. So I agree with you most of the time Occam's razor, great. But there have been crazy government conspiracies in the past. Look at like Watergate for example, you know, or or JFK assassination or whatever. There's a bunch of them. And so do you think that one might be a foot now? I think so. I don't know if all these assassination attempts are real or not, but I I don't rely on Occam's razor in every case to just be like yeah, all things being equal, this is what it has to be. Um I think that there are extremely actively, openly, evil, malicious, nefarious people at the highest levels of government right now. They have essentially exposed themselves. You've got Project 2025. That's a real thing. That's a conspiracy to essentially reorganize the government so that it can be more openly nationalistic, racist, etc. You've got people like Peter Thiel openly saying he doesn't even know if he wants humanity to continue and he would rather control everybody from his kind of techno throne as a weird techno god. You've got Palantir releasing their manifesto that basically says they want to take control of the world. You have people with vast resources right now um essentially controlling not only world commerce and world technology, but now they're controlling the United States government. Through donations to Trump. I mean, Elon Musk was basically the president for the first 6 months of Trump's uh current term, you know. So, it's like when you look at these things, it's like yes, Occam's razor maybe these assassination attempts are all real, but you also have to look at the level above that, which is there is a very real, very terrifying conspiracy that consists of these these billionaires who control all these tech companies to try and take control of the world. That's happening right now. And so, is it beyond them to potentially nudge a person this way or that way or I'm not saying that the assassination attempts were like actors doing this [ __ ] but I am saying if you watch today's episode, that I think um you know, there are certain people who are like more susceptible to being nudged in a direction or pushed that way to potentially go do the assassination attempts. And I think that's probably what we're looking at. Um you know, people like Peter Thiel and the CEO of Palantir and Bezos and Zuckerberg, they don't [ __ ] like Trump. They're playing a game with him. They're just doing what they think will will help them get like um less scrutiny on whatever they're doing, less government oversight. That's all they give a [ __ ] about because they think that their uh position as like the leaders of these big tech companies is actually more important or controls more of the world or humanity than any world government, and they may be right. So, they're just trying to put things in motion so in the next 10 to 15 years, they can openly take control of everything. And we're watching the first phases of that now. So, would an assassination attempt be a part of their their bigger game? Yeah, I'll buy that. Heather Estep V7R, if Mary Lou having combos with new people helps, lawyer? Yeah, I should probably do that. I should probably look into an immigration lawyer or something. Maybe that will be the next the next step, but it's also a matter of like so far all the people who have come on our show have kind of like come to us in in one way or another, and I feel like that's generally the best way to do it that it's like you find, you know, if people want to come on the show, they have like a vested interest and uh it's just easier to do it that way, but I'll look into this. A lawyer. How's it flowing? Hassan pulled the absolute piss. Mary Lou and Bob adore him. Parker came on good faith and they hate him. It's like they respond well to being made fools of. Yeah, but Parker's thing, his whole thing is debating people. So, he came in for a debate. I think Hassan's thing is not necessarily that, you know, he wasn't trying to debate my parents. He brought up some counterpoints, but for the most part, he was kind of like laughing with them and having fun. So, they were susceptible to to thinking like he's their buddy basically, you know. And I don't think Parker did that. He didn't He wasn't trying to be their buddy from the outset. Um praise be the lib sibs. Oh, thank you very much. Why is Rachel Lindsay never in the conversation for the great one? Married during winter, TV host, podcast, took down DLH. Love you and Haley, keep it up. Um she is. She's always in the conversation when Lizzie and I talk about that. She's definitely on the Mount Rushmore. I would consider her to be one of the the top five players of all time, maybe top three even. Um I would say the reason that she's not at the top for me is like Nick Viall. And I know whatever, this is all bachelor talk now, my apologies, but the reason people don't like Nick Viall is because he is presenting himself in the actual world as a kind of like piece of [ __ ] >> [laughter] >> And say what you will about that, but in the game of bachelor, more screen time, more kisses, more roses, more one-on-ones, more group dates, more two-on-ones, back-to-back in runs in two successive seasons of Bachelorette, an in run on Bachelor in Paradise, and a crown. No one has ever done anything like that. And now it's the position he holds post-bachelor is bigger than anyone in the bachelor universe has ever had. So, I don't like on all fronts in every conversation, he has operated at the highest level. He is the goat. I speak HTML. I emailed twice about Discord. We're up to 180 fans. My apologies. I my this week has been very busy uh in a a lot of regards, not just professionally, but a lot of stuff going on with our family as well with my dad and his health and stuff. So, uh I haven't had time to check a lot of the emails. My apologies, I will try to get to that this week. Catherine Perry H4Y, Chad, did you research LDS Mormon faith? Uh not formally. There are a gazillion YouTube channels of ex-Mormons who speak of trauma, shades of Scientology, uh temple practices are secretive, strange, and based on Masonic rituals. I only know like kind of the what most layman I think know about the Church of Latter-day Saints of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, which is the undergarments. There's that video that went around YouTube sometime ago where they were like talking about how all Mormons believe that if you lead a good life and you're a man, you get your own planet when you die over which you can rule, things of this nature. We all know about the polygamy that that used to be uh key feature of the Mormon church, and now still there are some like kind of offshoots and little sects of it where they do that, but >> [snorts] >> um yeah, it's it's a cult. I mean, all religions are cults, but that one happens to be more cultish, I think. Well, it was civil court. I'm not at all saying I believe everything is real regarding assassination attempts, but that one guy did get shot and die behind Trump and Butler. So, there was at least a bullet somewhere. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. I'm not saying that they are faking all of this by any means. I I think in some cases, in that case, obviously, that guy got shot and he's dead. Um that doesn't mean that they're not orchestrating that still though. You know what I mean? And and again, I'm not saying that these are all actors or anything. I think that guy was really killed, really shot, but like the person that fired the gun, who was that? Was that the dude with the rifle? Was that a real shot or was it somebody else? I don't know. I don't know how far they will go to orchestrate things. You just can't deny like when you see the footage of the Secret Service guy taking the camera people around and being like, "Here's a better angle." and then the [ __ ] American flag lowers down behind him so he can go fight fight fight. You can't deny that that seems incredibly suspicious uh in my opinion. Brooke Carlini, I'm worried about the pod. Why you worried, Brooke? The pod will be fine. We'll be here every Wednesday and Sunday. Jesse Fink 4425, Mary Lou needs reminded. Wednesday eps are bursting MAGA bubble, not happy hang out with mom. I know, I kind of changed the name of the the bursting the MAGA bubble, but maybe I'll bring that back so it's it's foremost in her mind. >> [laughter] >> Uh Tory Gordon, I'm curious about Bob's adoption story, especially considering who he is now. I'm adopted also with [clears throat] quite a bad upbringing, although I'd say I'm the complete opposite. Are you able to share? Is that something you keep quiet? No, we we've talked about this on the show. Um we had a couple episodes where we had a family therapist come on and my dad talked at length about these things. But basically, the story is his mom got pregnant in his biological mom got pregnant, I believe, in high school, gave him up for adoption. He was in an orphanage, like a Catholic orphanage, where his adopted parents adopted him when he was a a baby, days old essentially. His sister was also adopted, older sister also adopted. His parents, his adopted parents, were not like great to him, and even I think by his own admission, he would claim that they adopted him and his sister just because like every other um family in their church had kids. It's kind of a keeping up with the Joneses type thing. And I don't think he he did not have a good upbringing. There was some abuse like on all fronts, and he really found sports to be an outlet for himself. It gave him self-worth. It it gave him something to do um other than kind of like be abused by his parents. So, that the nature of sports in the 1950s in small-town Kansas uh contributing to like kind of his the only way he could measure value in himself, I think had a lot to do with him perceiving the world in a kind of black or white, winner and loser, adversarial context. And that is what has made him like hyper-competitive his whole life, hyper hyper-competitive. And in his older age, as now MAGA has kind of set in on top of that, it's just become a million times worse. Um I hope that answered your question, but I would tell you to go back and watch the first episode we did with the family therapist. Um that might be illuminating to you. He he talks about it personally um in that episode. I hope that's helpful. Colorado Kitten Foster 7459, it seems like a lot is on your mom's shoulders with your dad's care, correct? Can you convince her to hire help with a CNA or assistant? We are trying to do that now, hoping he feels better. Me, too. Uh we're trying to get everything kind of squared away here hopefully over the next week or two in terms of of all of that. Like is there going to be somebody in the house now, and who's that going to be, and are they going to be on the [laughter] podcast? Can you imagine that? Okay, you got to come uh deal with this [ __ ] angry insane guy. Also, you have to be on a podcast. Spectrum Scouting, been loving the So Ringers content. Oh, thank you. Please keep it coming. Yeah, I'm having so much fun. Me and my buddy Maddox uh started a a little podcast or a little YouTube channel about Magic the Gathering if you're into that game at all. I have my sitting right next to me. I was going through my squirrel deck making some fine-tuning adjustments. But yeah, I've been having a blast doing it. I I really am highly addicted to Magic the Gathering again. m e r e d How is your cat doing? It's so hard when they have to have surgery. He's doing good. Thank you for asking. He's back to his old self. He's flipping around. He's biting the [ __ ] out of me meowing at me angrily when I don't do everything that he wants. He's totally fine. Last night he was sleeping on the bed on my side of the bed like long wise so that he was literally like sleeping as I would sleep in the bed and I had to get in and kind of like curl up into the fetal position so I didn't disturb him of course. He's doing fine. Thank you for asking. Well, it was civil court. If Hulu drops the Taylor Frankie Paul lot of bachelor questions here tonight. If Hulu drops Taylor Frankie Paul bachelor season, are you going to cover it on Gore? Yes. 100% 100% like I have very mixed feelings about watching that season and I think watching it will be a kind of dark endeavor, but I have done dark endeavors in the past in service of my fandom of the bachelor. This would be no different. So the answer is yes, we will cover it for sure. Two ICs one palm YYC suggesting monthly episodes with someone who can broaden your mom's POV. The Peppermint episode was 10 out of 10. Hand the Webby over to you guys. >> [laughter] >> I look I I agree. I would love to do that. It's just a matter of like finding and booking and scheduling and you know, and and also with my my mom and dad's current schedule it's like you know, a lot's up in the air. We do the best we can. Arizona Mountain Girl You're glowing tonight Chad. Thank you very much. It must be all this lime ginger Nixie I'm drinking. >> [sighs] >> Dalton Leprek or Leprech maybe Best heel turn of modern history is when you took over the arts and culture reporter title. The ballet exists for everyone. Anyone can go to the ballet. That's a deep cut Doozy reference if I am if I am reading this right cuz yeah, Will went to a ballet, right? And he was the arts and culture reporter then I went to one that was about AI by the way. And then I got it. Yeah, that was those were fun times back in the Doozy era. Kristen De Santos 4861 I'd love to hear Jesus, sorry. I'd love to hear what American values Mary Lou believes are qualifications for POTUS since honesty, integrity and compassion are on the list. So bad feels better soon. Thank you very much. Yeah, I mean I don't know. I think like I think these kind of like on paper these these qualifications as you put it honesty, integrity, compassion she would say yes, president should have those things. And then if you would tell her this is just my assumption. If you would tell her Trump doesn't have those things, she would probably argue against you. She would probably say yes, he does. Of course he does. He loves his family. No, no, no, no, no. And and she would put like committing genocide on the side of well, he's got to protect our country. That president's after my car all presidents kill. So I think she would kind of lie to herself about the fact that he does have these things even though clearly he doesn't. Catherine Perry H4Y Chad recommend watching The Bulwark especially Tim Miller. I've seen a bunch of his clips. JVL I'm not sure who that is and Sarah Longworth former Republicans never Trumpers and two were raised Catholic. I see Tim Miller all the time. He they have him on like um I want to say MSNBC. He comes in quite a bit to be like a talking head and stuff. But yeah, I like what he has to say. It's interesting though like all of these former Republicans who have now turned it's like okay, but what about when Trump's out? Are they going to go back to being Republican? I'm super curious to see that or have they been completely turned forever? I don't know. But yeah, I like Bulwark for sure. Gin up g gin up the base I I think. Is it possible that Bob's maternal mom left him on the pallet because his paternal dad was also his grandfather and therefore Bob's mom was his sister? No, I don't think so. My dad found out who his his biological parents were. They were high school students with one another. I'm I'm I think I see what you're saying here but that is not the case. My apologies. TJ Gamer 9713 Hey Chad, I just want to say I agree with Haley. We can't move on from Trump or the MAGA era until we have another Nuremberg. Yeah, look that may be the case and and I'm down for it if that's what the next um administration wants to do, you know, hold all these [ __ ] accountable and like put them in jail if they can. I'm totally down for that. I just feel that it's like the I wouldn't run on it. You know what I mean? Cuz I think we we have seen what Trump did. Trump basically ran on like I'm going to go after my political opponents. I'm going to put them all in jail. [ __ ] these people, whatever and he's doing it now and it's like this Jim Comey thing with the seashells and Letitia James and Jimmy Kimmel and he keeps coming after these same people with these frivolous [ __ ] things. Like I just feel like for me personally, I'm tired of that [ __ ] and I don't want to see it coming in the form of a Democratic candidate in the next Republican or in the next presidential election. I want to see like forward thinking. I think going after Trump at least presenting that as part of your platform is regressive thinking. It's being trapped in the past. Trump does bad [ __ ] Now we got to go after them. No, no, no, no. That should be implied. You could answer that with one question in a debate. Yes, we will go after Trump. But make your platform about what are you going to do for the future? How are you going to make America better again, you know, or or whatever. I don't know if that's a good slogan, but you know what I mean? Like how are you going to get our standing with all the other countries in the world that used to be our allies. How are you going to reestablish that? How are you going to get the economy back on track? How are you going to get us out of what I'm sure will still be a war with Iran that's happening. Etc. Etc. Etc. What's your stance on dealing with Israel going to be? They're still committing a [ __ ] genocide. Like those things to me are I'm more interested in what a candidate has to say about that and of course once they get into office, it should be kind of de facto that they're going to leverage any kind of legal investigations and prosecutions against anybody who committed crimes in the Trump administration. But I just don't I don't know that I would run on it. I just think it's like that's not a political platform. It's kind of what you have to do. You could say that you want to reestablish integrity in the DOJ and that means we're going to start [ __ ] going after Trump and all of that, but I don't think you want that to be your primary platform. At least I if I was running, I wouldn't do that. You know, everybody obviously free to do what they want, but it's my two cents. Matthew Danielson 6415 Bob would perform under the name MAGAnifique. That's his drag name. >> [laughter] >> That's pretty good one. Miss Simon or M. Simon 1984 MAGA says liberals don't know what a woman is yet consider Michelle Obama a man even though she bore two children. Can you speak on that hypocrisy? That That's all MAGA. It is just hypocrisy. It it's like the um the thing that's going on with Kimmel right now where they're like oh, he should be fired. He's saying all this [ __ ] and it's malicious and it's you know, Jimmy Kimmel's the one who's like radicalizing these people that are trying to do these assassination attempts. Give me a [ __ ] break. Trump how many times has Trump said he's going to [ __ ] wipe out a civilization? People need to get the [ __ ] kicked out of them. Etc. Etc. Etc. Etc. And so the hypocrisy is always like front and center with MAGA. They can do whatever the [ __ ] they want, say all this nasty [ __ ] do all this nasty [ __ ] Anytime somebody cracks a joke at in their direction, [ __ ] you, you're going to jail. It's incredibly hypocritical. That is MAGA. Cold Viper 18 Is Bob okay or is it concerning? He's seen better days. There ain't no two ways about that, but it seems like he's getting better. >> [snorts] >> We will know more as the days continue. I'm hoping my mom will come on for Wednesday and maybe we can have a discussion about what exactly is going on because we still don't quite know. Colorado Kittens Colorado Kitten Foster 7459 Can you please beg Peppermint or Bob to transform you into drag with Haley and >> [laughter] >> and your mom there to judge. Bonus points if you can give us Bob to join. Here's I mean how the hell would I do that though? I I mean Peppermint first of all is in New York City. I'm in Los Angeles. My mom and dad are in Oklahoma. My sister is in Dallas. I I don't trust myself to be able to apply makeup and any kind of drag accoutrement. I don't think that I would be good at that. So I would probably need Peppermint to do it to me but I don't know how we would all be in the same room. But it's a great idea. Catherine Perry H4Y Please tell your mom thank you for sticking with this. I've been so mad at her, but her exchange with Peppermint warmed my heart. Yeah, I've been getting a lot of really nice DMs about that the Peppermint episode as well and not only how like my mom seemed to be well behaved, but God, I just sincerely can't thank Peppermint enough for doing it. I know that it's like it's a lot to ask to be like can you come talk to my [ __ ] crazy MAGA mom? Something that Peppermint obviously does not have to do in any capacity. Something she wanted to do and I thought that it like it it moved the needle for my mom for sure. So, hopefully we can keep doing stuff like that. Elite scopes 100, is your mom in denial for the sake of the show? In denial, I'm confused by this one. Hang on a minute. Is your mom in denial for the sake of the show? In denial about what exactly? In denial for the sake of the show. Maybe this means is she in denial? I'm not sure what this means. In denial of what exactly? Elite scopes 100, my apologies. Heather Estep V7R, I'm a lawyer, will do. Oh, thank you for the offer. We'll see We'll see. Hit me up in the in the DMs. I I generally want to have like somebody come on who who might already be publicly talking about politics and stuff though, because I would hate for you to come on the show, Heather Estep, and then you say something that might get you in trouble at your job or you know what I mean? It's It's kind of a dicey thing I think to come on our show unless you're already a little bit in the public. Emily Trademark 1, I appreciate today's LibSibs episode just to hear y'all discuss concepts that extended beyond a second grader's thought process. Love from Dallas. Thank you very much. Yeah, I mean, it's always We do LibSibs usually in the middle of the week when my mom can't make it. Um but today my mom couldn't make it, so we had to do LibSibs on Sunday. But yeah, I always like just hanging out with my sister and talking about whatever. And I agree, it's like it's just nice to have a kind of chill conversation about politics or whatever the topics were. We had some fun little moments too, some little jokey things. Like the tattooer. See. Ooh. What is going on here? Is this Chad CPTSD? Affects the way your brain works. Changes the neural pathways. When Mary Lou and Bob when their faces go blank, they stop thinking. That's a symptom. Understanding this could help you communicate. What is CPTSD? >> [snorts] >> Complex post-traumatic stress disorder, mental health condition resulting from chronic long-term trauma. It includes PTSD, etc., etc. Okay. Yeah. I mean, sure, they might be suffering from that, who knows. Dieters Gone Wild. Bob in drag {slash} Bob smoke weed, which is more likely? Ooh. >> [snorts] [laughter] >> [ __ ] I think probably neither. I think they're both 0%. But I would say smoking weed is probably more likely than getting him in makeup and a wig. But neither are ever going to happen. I'll say that much. Chris Chris Chaser Chris Chris Chaser Chick, I think that's right. Poor Bob. His inner rectal cranial infusion is acting up again. Seriously though, get well soon, Bob. Yes, thank you. We all are hoping that he pulls through. Douglas Ragsdale 2752, 103 warehouse fires Haley is getting her way. What? 103 warehouse fires, what does that mean? I googled it. I don't know. I I I remember reading about a warehouse fire not that long ago, but there's 103 of them now? Damn, I didn't even know that. Shroom Ep 2 N L. Uh bring up the DNA that E. Jean Carroll had on her dress and Trump refused to give his DNA. Oh, DNA, sorry. Bring up the DNA that E. Jean Carroll had on her dress and Trump refused to give his DNA for over 2 years to prove his innocence. Oh, I didn't even know that. That's pretty interesting. Oh, bird. Today you mentioned family pets executed {slash} given away. Yes, we had a a family wiener dog named Sir Wallace Flash. He bit my sister on the face and my parents executed him. Took him to the vet. They told us they were taking him to a farm, but they euthanized him. Um we had a cat that my parents gave away once when they moved, as well as a parrot and a lizard. They would just kind of like when we would move as kids if we had a pet that was hard to take care of, they would just like give it to a local pet store who takes care of that type of pets or whatever. Um and that was just their way. I think it was because my dad grew up on a farm and saw pets die all the time and was just kind of like immune to that [ __ ] But obviously as children we were not. Colorado Kitten Foster 7459, what do your parents think about Bo Biden? They hate him. What do you mean? They [laughter] They hate him. Anybody in the Biden crime family hate him. Doesn't matter who it was or what they did, hate him. AbbyCanCook, do you think it bothers Mary Lou more that if she sees the light it means she's been wrong or that it means the libs aren't being owned? I think I don't know which of those two things like if her her inability to admit that she's been wrong or tricked is worse than her hatred of the left. I don't know which is stronger in her, but I think they both play a massive role in her not being able to say that or not even being open to the idea that she could be wrong, that uh MAGA might be a big grift. I don't know. I don't know which one is worse. Time will tell, I suppose. I feel like she's getting closer. I feel like we're we're closer than we've ever been with my mom to reclaiming her. MDR4059, hi Chad, thanks to you and Haley for what you do. You're welcome very much. Have you ever considered Lev Parnas as a guest? He seems like a great person to pierce the veil of MAGA. Lev Parnas, is that Aaron Parnas? Is he related to him? I watched that guy. I don't know this guy, Lev Parnas. Soviet-born American businessman and former associate of Rudy Giuliani. I don't know. Don't know I'll look him up I'll look him up later. Um Salma Villarreal 2783, should find some excerpts of speeches Hitler gave and read them together. That type of rhetoric that Trump uses is similar to nationalist movements. Yeah, I don't know that that would change my parents' mind though. I I don't I mean, my dad I think likes Hitler, so I don't know that that would have much of an effect. Turtle 73R7L3, Starship Troopers with Bob and Mary Lou asking to explain it. You talking about the movie or the book? Cuz they ain't going to read no book. Um that movie came out in probably what, 1996 or something like that, 97. Paul Verhoeven, of course, directed the what was then Casper Van Dien and a a young um Why can't I remember her name? Charlie Sheen's first wife. Oh my god, what was her goddamn name? Or not first wife. Third wife or something? Uh Denise Richards, second wife, sorry. Um Yeah. I love that movie. I don't know that they would understand that it is about fascism at all. I don't think they would. I think they would just uh you know, zero in on the bugs. Pasadenaish, another Bachelor question. Can you share the lore about Chuck Chapel grinding his knuckles under the sea looking for treasure? I don't even remember what it was. It It was some episode of Golden Bachelorette where they were out by a lake or something, and I think me and Lizzie were high recording our recap of that episode and just started doing a weird bit about how he lives in the sea and he's looking for his treasure. I I do not remember, Pasadenaish. My apologies, but I think it's something like that. Um Colorado Kitten Foster 7459, can the CNA be from Oh, there's no way I can see those flags. My apologies. And what's CNA? CNA. Certified nursing assistant. Be from I'm so sorry, I can't see those flags. I'm assuming there is a It looks like maybe there's a China one in there. I can't see the other ones. I'm so sorry. But yes, I get what you mean, and I'm very curious to see who the CNA might be as well. Well, it was Civil Court says >> [clears throat] >> Lord have mercy on the in-home aid you guys get. No [ __ ] I've been thinking about that for the past 2 days, just like who the [ __ ] is that person going to be? Do they know what they're stepping into? Can you [ __ ] imagine that? Can you imagine? You You're just a nurse. You work at some place that provides this type of care for people. Okay, you got a job, you got to go to this house. You walk in and it's my [ __ ] dad. Can you imagine that? I pity that person. Um Nolobob 5047, have you played Slay the Spire? Slay the Spire 2 is in beta. Not only have I played Slay the Spire [ __ ] probably [ __ ] 10,000 hours, I've also put a lot of time in Slay the Spire 2 already. Love them both. And Hades 2, I've been hitting that up. It just came out on Xbox not that long ago. Dieters Gone Wild, any plans to speak again at DePaul this year? Um not to my knowledge. I don't know if they're doing a pop culture conference or anything again this year. Nobody hit me up to do it, so unfortunately I will not be there. Jamie Lagattuta or I hope I'm saying it right, Lagattuta, Lagates. I would love to see you use motivational interviewing with Mary Lou. That would keep her from arguing for Donald John Trump and digging deeper. In look it up motivational interviewing. Uh Okay, I have made a note. Um Lawanda Fraser. Lawanda Fraser I did this last week too. I'm so sorry. >> [laughter] >> Lawanda Fraser 5642 Chad love the show watching from Montreal Quebec. Keep working on Mary Lou. I will. Thank you very much. Kel is the king. What did Bob have to say about Peppermint being on? Nothing. Like I said, I don't think Bob knows that Peppermint was on or at this point uh would care at all. >> [clears throat] >> David Cabanas 9121 listening to the latest combo I was wondering if you and Haley Haley were more [clears throat] adversarial to each other growing up. Good to see you buried the hatchet. Uh [ __ ] I can't see what that emoji is something stick. Um Oh can I No, I'm not even going to try to do that I might [ __ ] this whole thing up. Um were we more adversarial as kids? Like yeah, because my dad would like pit us against each other and stuff. I remember we used to live in this house in Great Bend Kansas. Oh no, this was in Amarillo, Texas. Sorry. And it the layout of this house was like >> [clears throat] >> it had kind of this living room that was at the end of this long hallway and the hallway had if you went down it my bedroom was off it then a bathroom then my parents bedroom and my sister's bedroom was at the very end of the hallway. So you had maybe that hallway I would say was probably 10 to 15 yards long. Maybe even more. Maybe more. But my dad would make my sister and I as small children like I was in the fourth grade right Amarillo or third grade third grade I think is is the oldest that I could have been however old you are at that point. And my sister would have been in like kindergarten. And he would make us go stand at her the edge of her room and then sprint into that living room passing a rope that he would lay on the ground and he would clock us with a [ __ ] stopwatch. We had to do this every night for hours. Um so yeah, he kind of instilled in us this like highly competitive spirit. You could say. And my sister I don't know if like adversarial is right. She was just mean. She was a mean kid. She would beat the [ __ ] out of me um even though I was her older brother and I I wouldn't like retaliate. Couple of times I had to because I would get infuriated, but um you know, she was like younger than me and I wasn't going to she would like hit me with baseball bats and [ __ ] and and stab me with these [ __ ] corn holders and stuff. Now it's kind of like a funny joke or whatever, but yeah at the time when we were kids I I don't know that we were we weren't like No, but we were we were hanging out all the time and playing video games and [ __ ] making little skits. I remember we would make little like um radio plays where I would kind of like come up with some weird idea and then we would act it out and and make like audio things. So yeah, I mean I don't know. I I wouldn't say we're like that there was ever a hatchet to bury. It was just kind of like normal sibling [ __ ] really. Um Where was I at? Sorry. Here we go. Gidget Gidget and sweet Pila Carter. Gidget and sweet P LaCarter 9797. I'm so sorry if I got all that wrong. I'm sure I did. Please consider Dean Withers as a guest. I love your podcast. I'm praying for Bob's recovery. Thank you so much for the prayers. Uh Dean Withers cannot be a guest because my dad outlawed anyone under 30. Unfortunately. Um but maybe if my dad's not on the podcast in the next week or so maybe that would be interesting. Let me send a DM. Well, it was civil court. Please ask Mary Lou if she thinks Trump should be able to blanket pardon everyone before he leaves and what she thinks should be done if he does that. She does think that. I think we've asked that exact question because Joe Biden threw out some pardons as he was leaving and so she was like well, that's it now Trump should be able to do the same thing no matter what. I don't I don't think she would give a [ __ ] I think she'd totally support that. Smart Wani Did you guys already go over the amazing Scott Jennings clip? Love the show guys. Um you're I think you're talking about the Scott Jennings clip with Adam Mockler where he's like get your [ __ ] finger out of my face. That clip to me is like so indicative of where Maga is at right now cuz Scott Jennings they they bring him on is he on CNN? Where do they bring him on or is it MSNBC? He's on one of the liberal ones. Yeah, he they he's a talking head on CNN. >> [snorts] >> Um and he's he's Maga. He's Republican. And so he plays like the opposition character basically in their little talking head shows and they had Adam Mockler was sitting next to him. I forget what they were talking about probably something about like the Epstein files or Iran or whatever who knows. But Adam Mockler is making like a coherent point and Scott Jennings is like get your [ __ ] finger out of my face. That like his inability to keep his [ __ ] in check I think is because he can feel it. Maga is crumbling. That is what it feels like to me as well and I think uh the the more feisty Scott Jennings gets on CNN the more it is revealing I think that that Maga is crumbling. In my opinion. Um Selma Villarreal 2783 coming from a family that quote did it the right way immigrating to this country it's hurtful to hear when Mary Lou villainizes illegals as dangerous racist people would still hurt my family even with papers. Of course I I tried to get my mom to stop saying that. It's like the term illegals or any term that the Trump administration uses is simply to like dehumanize whoever their target of the week is whether it's illegals, Somalis, trans people, you know, whatever whatever the case may be. What were they calling um left wing terrorists or whatever liberal terrorists or something they they had something to that end as well that they were trying to paint on Renee Good and Alex Pretty. Um I've tried to get my mom to understand that and that using the language she doesn't understand it makes it easier for her to kind of dehumanize people when she uses the language too. I've done my best. >> [clears throat] >> And for a minute there she was saying I was trying to get her to say people period, you know. Um but it didn't stick. The real Tomein thank you very much. That's a deep cut. Dude Z mugs. >> [laughter] >> Colorado kitten foster 7459. Bob the DQ and Monet. Oh Bob the drag queen and Monet Exchange are in LA sibling rivalry crossover. That might be doable actually. We'll look into that. Bunkertons Love that you and Haley were able to respectfully disagree. Thank you very much. We do what we can. Deeters gone wild in a necessary conversation movie adaptation who would play each of you. This was a simmer down question that we asked a long time ago and my dad I don't remember what my [ __ ] dad said. But me and my sister were saying my dad should be played by Paul Simon the singer. Um I don't remember what any of us said. My mom was played well, >> [clears throat] >> I made a a sitcom pilot for ABC Jesus 15 years ago. Uh it was called Southern Discomfort and it was based on my family. I basically wrote my family as a sitcom and the person that played my father was Don Johnson. The person that played my mother was Mary Steenburgen. The person that played my sister was Sophia Bush and the person that played me was an actor named Steve Talley. Uh The we made the pilot and then they threw it in the trash. But those actors played us. Um I don't know. I thought they did a good job. Two ICs one palm YYC didn't Bob already do drag? Haley's dress. Oh my god he did I mean I don't know if you consider that drag exactly. He didn't put on any makeup or anything. He didn't do his hair. But yes, he was wearing my sister's dress at one point in his life. >> [laughter] >> Uh Adland South thank you very much. Donna Aphrodite I'm curious. Does Bob have dementia signals that could explain why he may is the way he is also high from a drag queen who loves the conversations. Thank you very much Donna Aphrodite. Um We don't know. Like we're having some tests done and stuff like that certainly, but it doesn't explain that he is the way he is. It's maybe exacerbating some things if that is the case. But um he's kind of always been this dude, you know. And if you go back and listen to the early episodes of the show that we started doing four years ago roughly like if the dementia thing is actually happening if it's not just kind of like he's getting old whatever the case may be. You can listen to those prior episodes before he started having a lot of health issues [clears throat] and like I don't think you'll you'll think that dementia is the reason for why he is the way he is. But we are looking into this. We are looking into a lot of [ __ ] right now. But, thank you very much for um enjoying these conversations. Proctor Richter Campbell. Hi Chow. Gezer Der Quest more Phil Hellmuth impersonations. Phil Hellmuth impersonations? Have I ever done one of those? Uh I don't think I ever did one of those. I don't know how to do it. But, Proctor Richter Campbell, I do love that. Thank you very much. Raddy 5547, I wish Mary Lou would talk with Parker again. He knows so many details in regards to the E. Jean Carroll case, uh DNA on the dress, etc. Maybe maybe I'll I'll hit him back up. I I just think my dad's going to be off the show for a minute. Um so, maybe it would be a good time to try and like zero in on getting some people to talk to my mom. Greg Kinnear speaks in third person. Bob saw the plaque and decided to raise the stakes [laughter] He was pissed. He was pissed that I gave my mom the plaque. So, he's like, "Fuck this [ __ ] I'm going to the hospital." No. I don't think they did it on purpose. But, uh you never know. You never know with him. Sneezy Pixie 87, Chad Love Parnas is Aaron's father. Okay. He worked for Trump in his first term. I believe he tried along with others to take Biden down. He'd be interesting to have on. All right. I'll I'll maybe reach out to them. Um Adeline South, have your parents MAGA or lib house orders? Have your parents MAGA or lib house orders? I'm not quite sure I understand what this means, Adeline South. Have your parents MAGA or lib house orders? I'm so sorry. I I don't understand this one. Catherine Perry H4Y, Lev Parnas was involved in creating the false Biden-Ukraine conspiracy theory, which was part of the Trump-Ukraine scandal's efforts to damage Joe Biden. And and he's liberal now? Or what's the deal with him? I had it pulled up, but I I lost it now. Austin's Corner, Chad, do you regret any involvement in reality TV with what it has done to our country and the way information is now entertainment? Trump knows it well. Do I regret involvement in reality TV? I've not other than like playing it like a video game from afar, I have never been involved in it. I just watch it and comment on it. Um and now I train people to infiltrate reality shows like The Bachelor and dominate it with game theory. But, uh I have never like produced a reality show or anything like that. So, I'm not exactly sure what you're asking here. But, no, I do not regret covering it. I do not regret infiltrating it. I do not regret um attempting to break that system apart into what it actually is and talk very openly on my other podcast Game of Roses about the kind of what the true nature of reality television is. We're not just like covering the shows and kind of gossiping about them on that podcast, if anyone is interested about reality television. I think reality TV is the it's the most important media format currently being made in America, really globally even. It has given us Donald Trump and it's the same kind of thing that is like reality television, all of it is a lie. Let's take The Bachelor for example. The lie is, "We're doing this show to help people fall in love and find their soulmates." That is 100% not true. They are doing the show to drive people to have nervous breakdowns so that we can experience watching their emotional duress on television. That is the goal of that show. Every once in a while somebody will get married and fall in love and have babies and [ __ ] That does happen, but that ain't the goal. So, that's kind of the the base lie of that show. But, all reality television is a lie in one way or another because you're not seeing 24-hour uncut footage of whatever happened on that show. You're seeing a very edited uh to a point to make you feel some type of way version of whatever actually happened. In some cases, they'll do things where they take like audio from a person and cut it up syllable by syllable to make them say [ __ ] they never said. Complete propaganda. And now we have a person who hosted one of these shows as the president. And our entire political cycle, political news, all of it is propaganda. So, I think you have to understand how reality television is made to even understand what the [ __ ] is going on in American politics at this point. So, for me, my involvement in reality television really is analyzing it and trying to get to that like base layer and help anybody who listens to our reality TV podcast. Again, it's called Game of Roses. Check it out if you like. It's on YouTube. It's everywhere you listen to podcasts. Um what we really try to break down in that is like, yes, hardcore coverage of The Bachelor and dating shows, but also generally talking about what reality TV is and why it's so important in American culture. And global culture at this point. Uh Dieter's Gone Wild, any plans to make a Chad K album for the Necessary Conversation? Not yet, no. Um I don't know what my next Chad K album's going to be, honestly. I think it'll probably be just like some weird songs that I'm writing for my own enjoyment that have nothing to do with any podcast or reality television. Jen and Tonic, it would be perfect if the aid were Somali. I mean, wouldn't it? Yeah, 3823 says, "Does Mary Lou have a Trump tattoo?" Twas mentioned. Not that I know of. She has The only tattoo that I am aware of her having, she has a rose on one of her butt cheeks, which I was present for when she got it. When I turned 17, I wanted to get a tattoo. And strangely, my parents took me down to downtown Dallas to this tattoo place and we were going to do it. And we walked in and the guy was like, "You have to be 18 to get a tattoo." So, I couldn't get it. And then my mom was like, "Well, we came all this way. Somebody's got to get one. I'll do it." And she got a a rose tattooed on her ass. And we all watched that happen, my entire family. So, that was a fun day. And then for my 18th birthday, I did indeed get a dragon tattoo. Tom Fickleberry, have you done DMT? No, and I want to so badly, but I don't know how to get it or or how to do it, unfortunately. Greg Kinnear speaks in third person. Eventually, Mary Lou will convert. But, will you let her forget she disregarded your opinions due to being blinded? Will you let her forget she disregarded your opinions? Uh yes. My goal with my mom is to get her to convert, like you're saying. When that happens, for me, all is forgiven. The goal is achieved and now I have my mom back. That's all I'm looking for here. Shmee202, just wanted to say hi before you cut off super chats. Oh, I didn't even [ __ ] think about that. We're good. We're good. Just wanted to say hi before you cut off super chats. I love the pod. >> [clears throat] >> Hope your dad feels better and that your mom is taking care of herself, too. Thank you very much. And yes, I hope the best for both of them as well. Matty 201RM, show your parents news coverage of USA events, ICE and US policies as seen by the outside world. Australian news media is calling it out more. That's actually a good idea. Maybe I'll try to look that up. Get some Australian Australian coverage of ICE and US policies. Thank you very much. Scron Diggy, Chad, uh I started reading Far Journeys. What else can I do to help practice astral projection? And can I get a zirp from DJ Xbox? Woo! That's a skirp. That's a [ __ ] blast from the past. I haven't thought about old DJ Xbox in a minute. Um What else can you do to practice astral projection? Here's like for what it's worth, I've never done it. I've never had an out-of-body experience, but I feel like I've been close a bunch. The thing that I get to that supposedly is like the last step right before you leave your body is you get in like this deep meditative state, which is known as um mind awake, body asleep, where basically feels like your body's dead, but your brain is still completely active. And what at least what happens for me is my whole body starts like [ __ ] vibrating. And supposedly, that's like the last step right before you eject, but I've never been able to fully eject. So, I don't know that I'm the best person to be giving advice about what you can do to practice astral projection other than consistency. Whatever meditation methods you are attempting uh to do this, if you find one that works, just keep doing it, I would say. Captain Goku 2280, hey Chad, do you know Adam Mockler personally and have you met him? I don't know him personally. I have not met him. I just he is always in my feed. And obviously, I see him on TV and that thing with Scott Jennings is like enshrined historically now in liberal media. Stick Booge, you gave Haley crap for Hayley Williams. No, I did not like Hayley Williams. But, check out her song True Believer, insanely powerful condemnation of Christian publicans uh ruining Nashville. I like Hayley Williams. I could really use a wish right now. Wish right now. Wish right now. That wasn't I genuinely love that song. Um Bunker Tins, I live for your wheeze laugh, lol. Oh, thank you. Well, it happens pretty much once every episode. Somebody says something that sets me off. So, hopefully sometime this week you'll get another one. Catherine Perry H4Y, liberal? I don't know. But, Lev Parnas is willing to spill the tea about Trump. Interesting. Okay. All Things Football 24, I've always been curious, how do you all compartmentalize and maintain the relationships with your parents when your dad calls you dumb [ __ ] Um my dad has called me dumb [ __ ] since I was born. So, that really doesn't affect me at all. But, I get what you're saying generally. He insults my sister and I on a very consistent basis um with really nasty [ __ ] over the course of this podcast. Um for me, I just don't like I feel like the MAGA cult has taken my parents. I don't feel like the people that I'm talking to on this podcast are my parents exactly. And I just do my best to always kind of remember that. So, when they're lashing out or when my dad's calling for genocides and stuff, I just don't think that's like really who he is. I think he's been uh you know, radicalized by right-wing propaganda. And so, I just try to remember that like I'm still his son, he's still my dad, and I got to be involved in this relationship if I ever want the real dad back. And that's basically how I do it. Um Greg Kinnear speaks in third person. Bro, you get my humor. Love. Indeed. You must get mine as well. Love right back to you. Rocket Bear Oh, okay, we've hit the super chat um limit. Hang on a minute. Oh my god. I have to turn these off. Bear with me. Please bear with me. And please bear with me. Just one moment. And then please bear with me. How do I do this? I've forgotten how to do this. Um okay, here it is. Now I found it. Here we go. I'm turning it off now. And yes, I understand the implications of this action. Turned off. I've done it. All right. Um Rocket What is this? Rocket Bear Any plans to get Isaiah Martin on the show? No, I'm not even sure who Isaiah Martin is. Having to look up all these damn people. Isaiah Martin for Congress, a proud Houston native, loyal brother and son, dedicated advocate. Oh, no, I do know who this guy is. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I've seen this dude a bunch. Sh- I mean, yeah. I'd be to- I'd be totally down for like any political candidate um or anybody who holds office that wants to come on. Um Jamie Lagatis or Lagates, again, so sorry. Please bring be- Please bring back Quiet Piggy and We Are Charlie Kirk. We Are Charlie Kirk. That's That's my sister's zone. I don't want to take that away from her. Lake the Tattoer, I don't know what's wrong with Bob. For the love of Blob, it's complex PTSD. Uh sure, but there's also some physical things that are going on uh that are like age-related, diabetes-related. I don't think it's just PTSD. Greg Kinnear speaks in third person. How would a real-life Truman Show go? Most popular show of all time, barely registers in the cultural zeitgeist. We are all living in it now. It's It's social media. Everything is recorded now, 24/7, and it's only getting wilder. There's a new drone that DJI just put out um I think it's called the Lito. And there's There've been drones like this prior to this as well. Their battery life is getting longer, the drones are getting smaller, and you can tell the drone basically to fix on your face, and it will just follow you. So, you just throw it up in the air, and it records everything. We are going to get to a point, I think, where your phone is going to come with a drone that just like Like if this is your phone, it just fits on the back of your phone, and you press a button, and it flies up, and the drone is this big, and it just is shooting everything constantly. I think we are all going to be living in Truman Show. I mean, we already kind of are within the next 5 or 10 years. And then it'll be a matter of who has the most interesting feeds. Um but I think that there will In my head, this is kind of how I see media splitting. There is going to be like real media, which is you know, things being recorded that are actually happening, and then there's going to be AI media. You will determine what you want to watch, but the real media is just going to be a giant reality show of all of humanity being uh filmed constantly. Then AI software will be used to cut that footage to find the good [ __ ] and cut it basically into compilations or narratives or whatever. I think those people won't do that anymore. AI will. But you'll use AI as a person to like say, "Okay, find me the best uh comedy stream of a person that's being recorded 24/7, and cut that into like a 30-minute episode or whatever." And it will do it for you. That's That's what I think will happen. I have no idea, though. Colorado Kitten Foster 7459, do you agree with that Mad TV skit that [clears throat] that's stated Will Sasso became less funny when he lost weight? Can you please do one of his Italian impressions? I will not ever do one of his Italian impressions, but I can do an impersonation of him doing Arnold Schwarzenegger. >> [snorts] >> And it goes something like this. Yeah, and then you go on Mad TV, and you see they do a skit, and it says Will Sasso became less funny when he lost weight. Yeah. Thank you very much. Greg Kinnear speaks in third person. Saving that Oh, Mary Lou butt tap for next time. Yeah. >> [laughter] >> Maybe she'll do a um a uh we'll do a what God, my brain is [ __ ] mush today. So sorry. We'll do maybe a simmer down where she can tell the story of the butt tattoo cuz it was really [ __ ] funny uh the day it happened. It is a a memory that will be up here till my dying day. Arizona Mountain Girl, did you notice how Mary Lou interacted with Peppermint when she was on a one-to-one basis? Not so easy to be mean in person. She should meet Michelle Obama. Yeah. Let me see if I can get Michelle Obama to come on our podcast. That'll be the next person I reach out to, for sure. That'll be super simple. I'll just send a DM. Uh she'll be on next Wednesday. You have my guarantee. Uh I would love that. Zapped9448, ask Mary Lou if she thinks windmills drive whales crazy. We Did we talk about this last week? This came up recently. It might have been in our last um one of these lives from last week. I think. I could be wrong. Um but no, she doesn't. Shmee This is our final question. Shmee202, someone in the chat said your dad's drag name would definitely be Whoopi Panou. That's his That is 100% it. His drag name is Whoopi Panou. Oh my [ __ ] god. That's so [ __ ] funny. >> [laughter] >> Thank you very much, everybody, for joining me tonight. Sorry, I'm I'm holding it down so low here. Hopefully next week uh my mom will be back on this with me, or at least my sister, or something like that. Uh so, thank you for bearing with me through this. And again, thank you for joining us for all these episodes that we're putting out. We'll have another one out on Wednesday, and I think it'll be me and my mom. I think she'll be back in action. So, look forward to that. But thank you again, and uh we'll see you soon.
