Welcome, welcome, welcome, welcome to the season finale of season one of Little Coffee Chats with Zach and Kaylee. My name is Zach Mann. And my name is Kaylee Mann. And you guys, it is our season finale. I can't believe that.
SPEAKER_01Wow.
SPEAKER_04We're doing a little break because we're leaving this weekend for a trip to Europe and work and some other things. And so we're just we're just taking a break. And you know what? Let's end the season.
SPEAKER_01Might as well. Might as well. We'll catch you back in July.
SPEAKER_00Don't even worry about it. Don't worry about it.
SPEAKER_01Yeah.
SPEAKER_00And we always come back.
SPEAKER_04You guys, the podcasts have video on Apple.
SPEAKER_01Yay! That's so huge.
SPEAKER_04We finally got it. I may even upload old episodes that we have video for, too. Oh, yeah.
SPEAKER_01Gotta get our faces out there. I don't know if anyone's going back retroactively, but I'm drinking this passion fruit Topo Chico that you got. Oh, isn't it good?
SPEAKER_04It's really good.
SPEAKER_01I have an obsession with passion fruit where I just have to get passion fruit flavored like anything and everything. If there's a cocktail on a menu, a yogurt, a topo chico, I'm buying the passion fruit version. It's just so fun. It's so fun. It's so good.
SPEAKER_04No, honestly, it's really good and really refreshing because we went for a run this morning. We're in our running era. You are in your running era.
SPEAKER_01I'm still in my running era somehow. I've been in it since February now. Isn't that crazy? That's kind of the longest I've ever stuck with running. Seriously ever. And Zach joined me today for the one kilometer over unders, which is like kind of one of the toughest workouts. So I'm at a I'm on like week 12 of running, but this is like week two of my new running program. I'm working to build up to 10 miles at one go. So um Zach came with me today, and it's like half of a mile conversational pace, one kilometer at like a faster pace, like 9 45, and then one kilometer at like 1015 kind of time. Yeah. And then you repeat that twice, and then you do a cool down 0.75 miles. So it was and like only one walking break after you do the four kilometer repeats.
SPEAKER_03Right.
SPEAKER_01And that was the first for me. Like, so it had built me up to this point. And Zach was like, Yeah, I'll just join you today. And you crushed it.
SPEAKER_04The power of the Peloton.
SPEAKER_01You really have been like this with your Peloton. Yeah.
SPEAKER_04I think we've talked about this before, maybe not on the show, but like I don't need the Peloton class instructor to tell me what to do. I kind of watch my I have some stats that I'm trying to like compete with, and that's all I need. And I can watch wherever I want to watch, but like it's easier for me to watch TV and work out than it is to like do the run. The run feels long. That is long for me. Does it feel long for you to do that? Or are you fine? Yes.
SPEAKER_01No, it doesn't feel long. It's really entertaining to me. Okay. Just to like listen to music, be in my surroundings. Like running outside is so nice because there's always so much to take in and look at. And also like just checking in with my body all the time. There's I have a lot going on internally anyway.
SPEAKER_04So I'm not bored. I was just trying to survive. Let me be real. It wasn't super hard, but it was like, it was definitely not super hard. But to me, it's just like, how long is this? Like it just, I get unfortunately. My brain is like, I am bored of doing this workout. Uh, versus if I was again on our Peloton, I have to have the TV on the TV towards the Peloton and I can like watch you're texting people, you're on the phone, you're like doing a lot. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Um not like that. But it was great. And I it does feel different, obviously, when you run. That is a massive workout compared to my Peloton. Like I am, I'm feeling it.
SPEAKER_01It was full body. It's full body.
SPEAKER_04My abs, too. Is that right?
SPEAKER_01Yeah, I think the first times, like once I when I stop running and I start getting back into it, my obliques hurt a little bit.
SPEAKER_04That's what it is from doing this so much.
SPEAKER_01Then it's like you could be twisting a little bit too much. Who knows? Whatever. Whatever.
SPEAKER_04Season finale, y'all were waiting for. You guys are like running. Zach and Kaylee are gonna talk about their running and their We pretty much always I always have some kind of fitness update though.
SPEAKER_01That's true.
SPEAKER_04And you guys I had to go on my phone earlier just now because I had to turn the AC on because I like chugged, I chugged a coffee. And you're sweating profoundly. And I'm already sweating, and I was like, my glasses are gonna fog up, and I have it set for the house to be like 72. Yeah, that would mean that the AC would never turn on. No.
SPEAKER_01So I had to turn it down to You needed to feel that cold air.
SPEAKER_04You guys, otherwise, I'm just gonna be spitzing over here and like glasses.
SPEAKER_02Yeah.
SPEAKER_04Uh, but you guys, okay, so what a fun uh first season. I can't believe we did so many episodes. I don't even know what like normal podcast seasons are supposed to be.
SPEAKER_01Five, 53? Yeah, what's like a normal podcast season? Oh, I don't know. I think it just determines like I think it's just like up to you, whatever you want it to be.
SPEAKER_04Do you want to guess what like smartless is?
SPEAKER_0120.
SPEAKER_04Let's see.
SPEAKER_01I don't know. I feel like that's a lot more coordinating. That's hard with schedules. Yeah. But I feel like they'll also go longer between episodes.
SPEAKER_04Is it easy to figure this out?
SPEAKER_01I don't think so. I don't think there's like a generic whoa. I was debating between saying general and generic, and I just got to do that.
SPEAKER_04They may not even do it like that. That's the bad example. Okay, internet. That was not a good idea.
SPEAKER_01I think it's just up to you. Yeah, it can't be as long, as short as you want it to be.
SPEAKER_04I don't know what these shows are. I don't listen. God, everyone has a podcast. My goodness. These fools. These fools. Well, they say that most podcasts don't make it past season one, so we'll see.
SPEAKER_01No, I think we'll for sure be back. I have no doubt about it. I keep telling Zach like podcasting is about the long game. Like it is just about continuing to show up like year after year. Well, also are so many podcasts I haven't listened to. It didn't, I didn't find it until they're on like year five or six.
SPEAKER_04Totally. And YouTube, our YouTube has more views now than ever. Our podcasts are getting more views than ever. Now there's video with them, which is really gonna catapult us.
SPEAKER_00We are we even in the triple digits on our YouTube views. No, but one is pretty close.
SPEAKER_04One is really close.
SPEAKER_02Great.
SPEAKER_04So, but it's not about that, you know. It is not about that. It's about delivering great uh conversations about some strong opinions.
SPEAKER_01Strong opinions, maybe wrong opinions, but they're strong.
SPEAKER_04Well, I was gonna tell uh my sister, Zoe, called me. We were talking today, and she was like, I cannot believe the crash. She had never seen it, but she was like, Oh my gosh, what a documentary! Like she'd only learned it about it from us. And I told her that we had gotten some hate on TikTok for the post that we did about me saying that um I thought that the uh the crime um didn't fit uh fit the punishment.
SPEAKER_01Yeah.
SPEAKER_04The punishment was too uh stringent on a minor, and they tried her as an adult, and the judge, like, you know, I just felt like it was just kind of BS.
SPEAKER_01Evidence, hard evidence.
SPEAKER_04We had like two comments on TikTok that are basically like, Are you working for their family? Are they paying you to post this stuff?
SPEAKER_01And I was like, We're not saying she's not guilty, like we're just saying that the way she was tried is like kind of insane, totally insane. Yeah.
SPEAKER_04Uh, but people have strong opinions, and that's the one thing that we are we're in that. I don't know if we're ever gonna get out of that ever again.
SPEAKER_01I also don't know if it's that good of a documentary. I was only seeing it mainly through that one prosecutor's eyes for the most part, and apparently there's like a lot of information that they left out. We have to watch like episode seven of like the mean girl crimes or whatever to get more information.
SPEAKER_04There's a lot missing, so well it was a doctor, it wasn't a doc series, so they must not have had enough to make it a series. That's the other thing.
SPEAKER_01Clearly not.
SPEAKER_04Because the yogurt shot murders had a 90-minute uh postscript. Traditional, yeah. Addendum? No, I'm not gonna I don't know. You read more books than me. What are the things after the book is over?
SPEAKER_01An epilogue.
SPEAKER_04An epilogue?
SPEAKER_01Well, I just put that in the regular book. Yeah, we don't need epilogues. We do usually that's usually in that's the end of act three.
SPEAKER_04A preface is gonna be is that is that a thing? Yeah, but that's like the author telling you something unique, it's not the story. Sometimes sometimes you mean it could be like you guys. I have not read a novel. I almost said narrative book. That's what it is, a novel.
SPEAKER_01I've only read 27 books so far this year. Oh you guys. I need to step it up.
SPEAKER_04Well, I think we should do maybe it'd be funny, like a Kaylee Mann presents a book report of a certain book. Like once in a while we'll do book reports.
SPEAKER_01I would love to do a book report. Are you kidding me?
SPEAKER_04I'd love to hear a book report.
SPEAKER_01I have to like fight myself every week not to talk about a book that I'm reading.
SPEAKER_04Did you ever do you remember like what were your grades on things like that? Like, did you take those really seriously?
SPEAKER_01100s, if not at extra credit.
SPEAKER_04I'm sure.
SPEAKER_01I remember the first time I got a 100 plus on a book report. I was in like seventh grade.
SPEAKER_04It was a plus? Yeah.
SPEAKER_01Wow. It was in seventh grade. It was for the Hobbit. And I made a really great little picture book and everything, and I got like extra credit on it. Good for you. And it made me be like, oh, maybe I could be smart. Like maybe I could, maybe I'm smarter than I think I am. I don't know. And and and I was the AP English student of the year, my senior year.
SPEAKER_04There we go. Okay, thank you. She had it.
SPEAKER_01But the only reason why that happens.
SPEAKER_04Oh no. Oh God.
SPEAKER_01Okay, so we had this the AP English teacher, our senior year was just like, I don't know. She had a soft spot for me, and I got like a 100 on my very first paper that I ever turned in.
SPEAKER_00Okay.
SPEAKER_01So I just kind of plagiarized myself for all my other papers. I just like followed the structure of what I had done. So it's not total plagiarism, but I was like, oh, she liked this, so I'm just gonna kind of do the same thing over and over again, but you know, change it for whatever the book is. And so I like always got a 100.
SPEAKER_04It was an original AI. You had like a one thing, and then you just I was writing these papers by hand. Like it's not I there's no chance. I'm fairly certain that that's just good writing.
SPEAKER_01Maybe, but it felt like I was like, oh my god, I'm like copying myself.
SPEAKER_04Right, but that's good. I mean, if someone, if if a structure works well for a person who's grading you once, then you may as well follow that structure. That's very smart. I would never have done that. I would have just written the paper, gotten like a B plus on it, because I wrote it in like 25 minutes the night before, and then I would have been like, oh man, I should have gotten an A on that if I only worked harder. And then the next time I did a paper, I would just wait again to the very end and do it.
SPEAKER_01See, if I waited and I did it like in 25 minutes the night before, I would get an F. Like I would, I just don't have the ability to comprehend that quickly. Like it takes me a lot of time to like put it all together. I just process information a little bit more slowly, but I understand it. I gotta give myself ample time. Yeah. I can't.
SPEAKER_04I can't do ample time.
SPEAKER_01But you're fast. You're fast though.
SPEAKER_04I like to just start and go. Once I had a laptop in college, I was like a totally different changed your life because handwriting notes was so bad for me because I was so bad at writing. Like my I was too fast. Even today, I struggle to write because I want to go too far forward and have to do the motions. Yeah, it's weird.
SPEAKER_01No, I don't think so.
SPEAKER_04But it's gotten worse as you can understand.
SPEAKER_01Your brain is so much faster than what your handwriting is.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, and then it ends up being like, oh god, and then I also get self-conscious about that. I start thinking about that, and I think about the writing, like I can't even read this. Oh man, and I'm like, this is stupid. What am I doing this for?
SPEAKER_01Anyway. See, I was a sicko. I thought of all notes were like I'm just practicing my hands. Your notes are gorgeous. I was always just like, I'm practicing my handwriting. I'm today, I'm gonna try my A's like this. Like I used to approach it that way.
SPEAKER_04You know what would be an amazing piece of software, and it probably exists, is for someone like me, if I had gorgeous handwriting, I would write all the time. Imagine if I could type in stuff and it would turn it into handwritten notes, like really beautiful. There's gotta be something. There's gotta be.
SPEAKER_03Yeah.
SPEAKER_04And then like, but like make doodles on it too for you whenever you want. Like, I would love to have a notebook that looked like something out of a 90s, you know, kid show that was just like the cool in the notebooks, all those sketches.
SPEAKER_01No, physical.
SPEAKER_04I just want to suit that and be like, that's mine. Because I never had that. My shit was just gross.
SPEAKER_01You didn't have like so many full composition notebooks of just journals entries.
unknownNo.
SPEAKER_01No, I don't. I'm sorry, Angel. You're just a boy. I'm just a boy.
SPEAKER_04I don't think any of my guy friends took notes in a journal. I mean, maybe they wouldn't they would I should ask them.
SPEAKER_01Yeah.
SPEAKER_04Season two.
SPEAKER_01Season two, boys in journals. I would love to hear about that. I bet like Nick has a journal.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, Nick probably has a journal.
SPEAKER_01But he's like the most avid writer I ever witnessed.
SPEAKER_04We should ask Nick.
SPEAKER_01Yeah.
SPEAKER_04He would be one that I would probably put money on him having one. I didn't grow up with him.
SPEAKER_01So okay, so he doesn't count.
SPEAKER_04Well, what I mean by that is like when I'm thinking of like as a kid. You're thinking notes. Yeah, but you're right. Like that's a great one.
unknownYeah. Anyway.
SPEAKER_01Well, anyway, I can talk about studying, reading, handwriting, writing books, grades forever. So please change the subject.
SPEAKER_04We we will. Well, you have you have a subject to bring up.
SPEAKER_01Okay, so there's a trending topic on my side of TikTok this week.
SPEAKER_00Ooh.
SPEAKER_01And I want you to, if I I'm gonna say this phrase to you, and what do you think it means?
SPEAKER_04Okay.
SPEAKER_01Transition blush.
SPEAKER_04Transition blush.
SPEAKER_01Yeah.
SPEAKER_04Um that sounds like well, I'm sure it doesn't mean this, but it sounds like to me is uh the some sort of makeup thing, but I'm assuming it doesn't mean that. Because that would be, you know, so obvious if it was just like the the transition of makeup from your face to your cheekbone or whatever would be a transition blush. I don't know. So that was what I would say.
SPEAKER_01Well, you're right. But it's the transition blush is like how it transitions from here to like your eye. Because a lot of times there's just like a white, you know, concealer line. And so the big debate or issue online right now is that Patrick Ta, who's a very famous celebrity makeup artist, but he also has his own makeup line, just debuted these transition blushes last week. Wow. And there are certain things where people like obviously we're all like hoes for capitalism. I'm so guilty. But there are some things you go, come on, like, do I need to buy another product to transition my blush?
SPEAKER_04So this doesn't exist.
SPEAKER_01Can I just learn a technique of how to transition my blush better? It's like it's way more of like a technique thing than it is buying a product. There's a whole other element to it that I won't get into with someone with uh painted by Esther. I think like maybe she dubbed it transition blush first and the technique, and then Patrick created a product and now is trying to sell this product. And anyway, that's that's not the point, but the point is like the the makeup world is fighting again, and it feels like 2016, which is fabulous. It's actually so fabulous.
SPEAKER_04I was gonna say that we're really hitting this uh season finale really hard. You know, we're going from our studying and our notes.
SPEAKER_01Last week we talked about crime, and this week we're talking about transition blocks.
SPEAKER_04I know we watched uh the yogurt shot murders episode five, and we're like, we're not gonna talk about another crime. I have no, I haven't written down in crossing. We want to make this more enjoyable and fun because it's because it's a fun and flirty summer. Yeah, all the music is more fun this summer, everyone's having a good well, except for Noah. Noah's like, hey guys, be depressed. Let me remind you.
SPEAKER_01Wait, do you have okay? Okay, thank you.
SPEAKER_04Wait, let's go transition blush. We are, yes, capitalism, number one, um, and number two, probably. I find it interesting that there you always ask that question, like, is there more stuff I could be buying? And the answer is yes, there is, and someone's always gonna make you something to go buy. Yes. An example of that would also be uh we live in uh west side of California, west side of LA, and we go to Abbotkinney often, and there's always some kind of like pop-up. In this past uh weekend, there was a pop-up for one of your favorite types of products, but through a not the product itself, right? Right, through an app. Through an app. So like there's always ways, like the internet is always coming up with ways to create a product or a trend or a something for you to either purchase or be part of. And I think that's and I want to say I think that's okay.
SPEAKER_01I think for the most part it's totally fine. I don't think as long as it's not hurting anyone, I think it's totally okay.
SPEAKER_04So, what's the controversy of just having another product to buy?
SPEAKER_01I just think people are like, this is kind of a BS thing. Where the issue, the thing with makeup is that I'm always buying new makeup because it's always possible that there's an improvement upon a product or a product that solves something that has been unsolvable.
SPEAKER_04Okay, so I have an answer for this for all the guys who are listening to the podcast. Okay. What this is, transition blush is like expanding the college football playoffs to more teams because the problem doesn't really exist. You don't really end up with a better product, right? You don't need to have 24 teams. Maybe you only have 12 teams. You may even have like four teams, maybe even just two teams are the best teams, but they want to have everyone be included, and so they want to have more teams so more people can access capitalism when the reality is you just need maybe the top eight teams really are the best. Just like with the transition blush, you don't need it, doesn't really solve a problem. You can solve it other ways, and then the day you really don't you could go without it and still be the same solution.
SPEAKER_01Okay, sure. My brain started going, I started tuning out during that because I don't understand. But yes, exactly that. For me, there are just certain things I I see a lot of like new makeup debuts all the time. And if something's not for me, I literally just go, okay, I don't need that, you know, and I scroll past it. But like people are they what they choose to be up in arms about is kind of hilarious. Yeah, we are not but I also get it because I also like a transition wash, come on, it's blush. Place it differently. Yeah, well, I interrupted you because you were gonna move on to something else, and and I oh well I was thinking about a fun and flirty summer, and it was just like, what do you think your like drink of the summer is gonna be?
SPEAKER_04That's a great question. I don't have to burp.
SPEAKER_00The Topo Chico got done.
SPEAKER_04The Topo Chico got honestly, this is great. So we're not sponsored, but Tobo Chico. Uh who knew they'd be making non-alcoholic they started non-alcoholic. But yeah, but like sparkling waters are funny.
SPEAKER_01Yeah.
SPEAKER_04I I actually kind of I miss it, and you're gonna go, well, duh, but I miss my Arnold Palmer's and REP. I think to me, that is just one of the best freaking beverages. It's also half sweet, which we talked about last week. Yeah, it's just so you can kind of manage your your sugar intake if you mix it yourself. Um but yeah, hot coffee always too.
SPEAKER_01Also, I think an Arnold Palmer was one of your sips on this.
SPEAKER_04Yes, it was. How about you? What's your drink of the summer?
SPEAKER_01Well, I think about tending I think the drink of the summer is going to be the Hugo Spritz. Why? Well, people love Aperol Spritz and then you realize there are other ways to spritz. And and a Hugo Spritz is a little bit less uh like tangy and cloying on the tongue. Like it doesn't stay on your tongue as much as like an Aperol spritz does. What is device?
SPEAKER_04The Hugo spritz. Tell me.
SPEAKER_01The Hugo Spritz is Saint Germain, muddled with mint. You add the ice, it's one ounce soda and three ounces prosecco, and then you garnish with a lemon slice and some more mint. And it is fabulous and fresh and delicious.
SPEAKER_04And was I making good ones after I made you a bad one?
SPEAKER_01We had get a few neighbors over, and Zach was making some fabulous Hugo spritzes. Mine was the first go, and it was I've never even made one for myself. I only had my first Hugo Spritz in Paris in November.
SPEAKER_04It was too little Saint Germain.
SPEAKER_01I think it was Too Little St. Germain, and maybe what the Prosecco is not the right Prosecco. You know, that could be that could be a thing too. I don't know.
SPEAKER_04The commentary from the audience was like, oh my god, this is my new favorite drink, literally.
SPEAKER_01Including everyone had a Hugo Spritz. No one wanted an Aperol Spritz.
SPEAKER_04Some people even said that it was their favorite drink they've ever had. I'm not kidding you. Like, this is the best drink I've ever. Yes.
SPEAKER_01Dang.
SPEAKER_04I won't name names, but she knows who she is. And that was very kind. But also, look, we had, you know, making a drink like that with those ingredients could be really hard to do uh because it is like a to-do. Like, but Kaylee, you went out and you fresh mint day of, fresh lemons day of, cut them up, put them in. I mean, we made it so it was really easy.
SPEAKER_01Everything like the idea of like a sliced lemon, the inside of a sliced lemon sitting on top of the outside of the sliced lemon that hasn't been washed. Yeah.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, and like your lip kind of hits it every time, and it's just like eating like people's fingers that have been touching it at the grocery store. But like there, but we there was something really special about a drink like that that has always fresh ingredients. That's why it does taste so good versus an Aparol spritz really just Aperol and champagne or Prosecco or whatever. Yeah. And like a little orange slice. But like there's something about that mint that just that adds that. It elevates it.
SPEAKER_01It really does. Also, I loved mojitos. Like I had a mojito phase right at the like end of college. God, I love mojitos too. And it's kind of like that without being as sugary.
SPEAKER_00Totally.
SPEAKER_01God, did you ever have a strawberry mojito? Of course. Oh my God.
SPEAKER_02That's some good shit right now.
SPEAKER_04I wish I wasn't trying to like work out and be in shape because then I could just have like virgin things that are awesome like that. Yeah. Those are just so sugary, and I drink them in like three sips. Like one, two, three.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, like your favorite drink at um the aqua chiara.
SPEAKER_04Aqua chiara. It's Yuzu and sugar and mix.
SPEAKER_01It's fabulous, but you drink it in two seconds.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, it's like three seconds.
SPEAKER_01It hits the table, they go, they come back to take our dinner order, and it's gone. It's gone.
SPEAKER_04But that to me, I don't if I do the run, I could drink an aqua chiara after that. Oh yeah.
SPEAKER_00Right?
SPEAKER_04But if you're just kind of like milling around eating pasta all day, you're like, oh you know, like someone's like that that that's when you go, man, being non-alcoholic can be very, you know, caloric.
unknownYeah.
SPEAKER_04Because if someone's drinking a glass of like white wine and you're out there drinking sugar drinks, you know, it's not great.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, they're not always like one-to-one in that way. Yeah.
SPEAKER_04And one doesn't hit the same way. One glass of wine, like, oh, that was great, you know. Yes. Okay. Anyway, uh, you guys, I had something I was gonna say and I kind of forgot it. Okay, well, we have to Oh, wait, wait, wait. I was gonna I was gonna com connect a little bit of the colour. Please. So you're saying the mojito and the and the and all the Ego spritzes, but I was gonna say one of my favorite parts of off campus was when she was drinking the pina coladas. Yeah, because those are so honestly, people be real. You're not drinking pina coladas very often, if ever. But when you do, when you do, it is so good. Yeah, you should really only drink them infrequently, but when you do drink them, you're like, why am I not drinking this every day? It is a it's like the best drink in the world. It is the best drink in the world. Yeah, I honestly think it is, and I've had way more virgin ones than regular ones, but even the regular ones with liquor with rum are good.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, obviously. Oh, yeah, that's why they're sneaky.
SPEAKER_04That's why they're sneaky. But I like a non-rum one. I love pineapple.
SPEAKER_01I love pineapple and I love coconut. It's like, come on. Does it get better than that? No.
SPEAKER_04But there's like almost nothing out there is pina colada, really, except for pina colada.
SPEAKER_01I bet they'll make a comeback.
SPEAKER_04Yeah.
SPEAKER_01But I think we just know they're so caloric. It's like really tough to drink. Well, it's not that hard to drink many of the pina coladas.
SPEAKER_04I think pineapple is just like a not really a pop, it's hard to cut up. Like pineapple is isn't like part of most.
SPEAKER_01A bar is not gonna make like a fresh pina colada all the time. Right. That's why it's a specialty. Yeah. Like when you travel and you're somewhere tropical. But I love that scene. I gotta bring that up. I love that scene from off campus. It kind of reminded me of Runaway Bride when she like doesn't know what kind of eggs she likes because she always just orders the kind of eggs that the guy that she's with orders. Interesting. And so for Wellesie, she was like, she doesn't know what her favorite like go-to drink is. And so she tried all these different drinks, and obviously the pina colada is the best spot. It's always gonna win. Who wouldn't choose that? Yeah, I just don't feel like I've ever had a period in my life where I wasn't like thinking about calories too when it comes to drinks, where it's like, well, that's just that's off the table, you know. Yeah, I loved her just like, yeah, I'm having four pina coladas. Well, she's 19.
SPEAKER_04So do whatever you want. Okay, so also she's 19. Yeah, I mean, drink whatever you want, whatever you want it, but it is one of those uh drinks that like if it's a good one, oh man. Nothing better, nothing better, nothing better. But they're just those things. I drink them too fast. Anyway, okay, out of okay.
SPEAKER_01If you could rate off campus on a scale of one to five pina coladas. Okay.
SPEAKER_04Well, that's easy to do. Where would you rate it? Well, she only had four, so I was gonna say four pina coladas, but I was gonna say uh five pina coladas. It's five pina coladas. Well, you gave me out of pina coladas, it's five.
SPEAKER_01Okay, what about stars?
SPEAKER_04Um four and a pineapple on the four.
SPEAKER_01Ooh, okay, a nice garnage.
SPEAKER_04Like for what it is, it's awesome. And four is great, I think. It's not like the best ever of what it is, but it's kind of up there as one of the best ever of what it is. Yeah, I think it's better than all the other, no offense, the shows that we watched of your stuff that is like more geared towards women.
SPEAKER_01Like what?
SPEAKER_04The the really depressing one, tell me lies. Oh, yeah, yeah. That's just so dark.
SPEAKER_02Tell me Lies is so dark. Yeah, so that one I can do. It was just like a train to hell throughout like all seasons.
SPEAKER_04I would fall asleep and I'd wake up to like evil people.
SPEAKER_01Which, by the way, the book is not as bad at all. Like she comes out more on top at the end versus like in the show, which I think was appropriate and fair to do, is like a lot of times women go through these horrible, horrible things, and the person who gets blamed is the woman, even when it's not their fault. So I understand the point that they were making. So I was really into it. But you're right, I mean, yeah, it's not like enjoyable.
SPEAKER_04You and off campus felt more like it felt more like a summer house version, you know, version of a show. Uh obviously, I mean, I not the current season, but yes. Not the current season. Oh my god, you're right. No, like the original seasons. Uh uh it felt it was just more again.
SPEAKER_02Summerhouses now tell me lies. Oh my god, it is it literally is. Does it West is the first one?
SPEAKER_04Wait, does every Bravo franchise still even become Tell Me Lies? Maybe is the Valley just like Tell Me Lies like extreme?
SPEAKER_01I can't even watch the Valley really. It's too depressing to be there. It's so depressing.
SPEAKER_04Well, they took like the the saddest and most miserable characters from shows and put them into like a show that was just them being sad and miserable together.
SPEAKER_01It's not great. It's it does not make adulthood look fun. No, because it's not, but I don't want to watch that.
SPEAKER_04But we so we hosted this little shindig, and we had our neighbors over who will have kids because we wanted to see all the kids, and that looked really fun.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, well, they're they're awesome and their kids are awesome.
SPEAKER_04Maybe the valley just sucks. I think the valley does suck, or their partners suck. I think they all seem miserable, aren't they all kind of miserable with their partners?
SPEAKER_01Yeah, I think there's just like some bad choosing of partners.
SPEAKER_04Well, Jax is on the show, not anymore.
SPEAKER_01He's not on the show anymore. Oh, okay.
SPEAKER_04Well, I'm not watching that show. I can't do that.
SPEAKER_01Yeah.
SPEAKER_04Uh I've been loving watching Rhode Island.
SPEAKER_01Oh, Real Houses of Rhode Island is so good. That is really good. So good because they obviously have like such deep relationships with one another, and they are totally themselves on camera. They're not self-producing in any kind of way. The drama is very real. I actually just yesterday saw that the woman who um I can't remember, is it Dina? Her husband was like sport fishing and gone all the time, and the rumors that she was hooking up with her friend Dino. Maybe her name's not Dina, whatever. She was hooking up with her friend Dino or whatever, but they were just like, Clay was friends forever and she just got like arrested like yesterday or something for like dealing cocaine or some crazy shit. Like he's like facing a big sentence.
SPEAKER_04Well, one of the things I like about Rhode Island is that the OG Rhode Island people are just like, This is Rhode Island, this is how we do, and like I love that they're like so much in love with Rhode Island, they're from because I also know nothing about Rhode Island, so I'm learning a lot about a subculture in the US, yeah. And like I could be totally wrong, but and I don't watch all the Real Housewives, but I think one of the things that we love about Salt Lake City is that they're culturally and physically from that area, yeah, and they have this kind of like they've been there, and that brings a level of authenticity, and not all of the shows have that where the whole cast is like from there, right? You know what I mean? There's some transplants, there's a per, and so it's like, okay, yeah, we all just live in Beverly Hills now, but that's cool, but we're not like Beverly Hills till I die, and like this is how we do things. Like the ladies of London is so fun because there's a lot of like very London, and then there's like these extreme outsiders into that world. But the Rhode Island's like all Rhode Island, right? Except for the bachelorette girl. Yeah, she's the newest.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, but everyone else is like, but her husband is from Rhode Island, so he's like locked into that.
SPEAKER_04And we got to learn some new words.
SPEAKER_01Slam pig.
SPEAKER_04Hashtag slam pig. And what does that mean, Kaylee?
SPEAKER_01I think it means like a see you next Tuesday, a whore, the neighborhood. Ho. Yeah. Yeah, I don't you sleep with married men, you sleep with anyone. And online there now, people are like, is West a slam pig?
SPEAKER_04Is he?
SPEAKER_01Could be, who knows?
SPEAKER_04Well, an F-boy is a slam pig.
SPEAKER_01I think, yeah, I would, I bet those are very similar things. Yes. But a slam pig is supposed to be like extremely derogatory. Well, yeah. Like F boys. I I was like, what is that? I've never heard of that. I had to look it up. And the AI summary was like being popularized on the show, Real House is Rhode Island. Yeah. Yeah.
SPEAKER_04That was good. It's a good show. Well, I the reason why I'm bringing up some of these like reality shows is that it is kind of getting to the end of the season. Uh, and and so as we are also on our finale of the season, uh, we had the finale of SNL. You guys know I love SNL. He loves SNL. Will Farrell was the host of the finale, and he is so good. He is so good. It is so fun to watch like a legend, and then it makes me think like it's kind of crazy that SNL is just like 20 and 30 year olds, basically. There's no like young veteran that like is on the cast. And I know that's fine, I get it. You know, when Will was on the show, he was much younger than he is now, but like sometimes it's so awesome to have that like veteran stage presence because it just allows the other characters to also maybe play more their age.
SPEAKER_01There's such a trust there where like I feel safe as an audience member. I think everyone feels safe on stage with him, you know. But there's like they can go certain places with their performance and just know the sketch is gonna work out.
SPEAKER_04His Epstein Cold Open was you haven't even seen it. I haven't seen it, it was spectacular.
SPEAKER_01I shouldn't even say that name on a podcast because it was probably gonna sweep it out, put me on a list, sweep it out, and make sure it's not in the transcript captions. Yeah, it'll be there.
SPEAKER_04I can't find it, I'm not gonna look it up. I'll be honest to you guys.
SPEAKER_00Okay, fine.
SPEAKER_04I just export this baby and put it up there.
SPEAKER_00Pretty much.
SPEAKER_04Um, maybe we'll get more downloads. We just call this like whatever. Uh, but uh, but yeah, so that was really fun. And you know, going into like the summer months, like we have some trips coming up. I'm really excited about that.
SPEAKER_01Yeah.
SPEAKER_04When what was like the last summer you remember where you just like stayed home and did like home stuff? Like when you're like a kid. Like, do you remember like summers back in?
SPEAKER_01I remember the summer when I was like 15. No, 14, because it was like you're too young to do certain things, like you can't have a job, you can't drive yet, right? But you feel way too old for a lot of the other popular summer activities. Also, like being in a bathing suit at that age is also felt a little weird.
SPEAKER_04Okay.
SPEAKER_01I don't know. There was just like a lot you're like, summer's boring and long, and like I'm so close to having a different level of access and freedom, but I'm so far. So I remember that summer, and also like, yeah, you can't get anywhere. My parents are working all day. So if you want to see your friends, you have to really coordinate that.
SPEAKER_03Yeah.
SPEAKER_01And uh I just remember that summer being really long. And then I I wish I would have lived it up because the next summer I was working at King's Island.
SPEAKER_04I was gonna ask, like, when you started working at the thing.
SPEAKER_01I was 15, yeah.
SPEAKER_04That's so uh what you just said about like the bathing suit summer and all that stuff. Like, guys just don't think about stuff like that. I got we're just so we have nothing to worry about ever. God, I mean a guy is so easy.
SPEAKER_01We don't only thought about it my whole life.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, we're just like, oh, it's summer, we're just gonna like go outside and do summer stuff. I know. All my buddies were um were uh lifeguards. Oh yeah, at the public pool, but I never went to the public pool unless I wanted to hang out with them. But they all did that and they got they actually got paid really well. I remember like, what? I want to say, I gotta ask Connor, but like I swear they were making like back when minimum wage was like seven bucks an hour, they're probably making like 15 bucks an hour.
SPEAKER_01I feel like being a lifeguard was like so cool. That was like the coolest job to have. I did not feel responsible enough to be a lifeguard, but I thought it was cool that people were. Yeah. Wait, but quickly back to reality TV. Sure. Um, the Summer House Reunion Part One airs today, and I'm like kind of anxious. I think a lot of people have the feeling of like, this is not a fun thing to watch. I feel like I'm watching like a horror film. It's like triggering on many levels for a lot of people. The tension in the preview made me be like, oh god, this is just so bad. And they've done these kind of like pre, like Bravo posted these like pre reunion videos yesterday, one of Amanda and one of West. And it's like, what are you like most looking forward to? Right. Clearing up or whatever. Um, and Amanda is just like, you know, I'm looking forward to to clearing up the timeline and just like really say like my truth. And it just feels so insane to me because if it if I were in that situation, I would be so ill and like just so apologetic. And it's just is like, I don't think that's gonna happen.
SPEAKER_04This generation of Bravo, like these kids cannot apologize and just own up. Like it doesn't matter what the timeline is, if just apologize.
SPEAKER_01Just say I'm so sorry. Like this is but they can't like take responsibility they want to be a victim, they want to be a victim. Well, that's a that's Amanda's whole MO.
SPEAKER_04But that's well, I would say like anyone who ever gets called out on these shows, they for the most part want to be the victim, even if they're the ones that like were the it's better to be the victim than to be like the perpetrator. I can just apologize. They can't they can't do it, they cannot do it. It's crazy. It's so wild. Like it wasn't, or even just be like it was never my intention to do the thing that we did, but it just happened, and I'm sorry, but like they can't do it.
SPEAKER_01There doesn't seem to be any remorse, which is just very, very weird to me. It's so weird, but I'm you know, I will be tuning in. We won't be able to recap here, but I'll just be tuning in. The first part is tonight's. Oh my god, what's time at like what five, six, seven? I don't know. Oh my god. Gotta make sure we're watching.
SPEAKER_04We watch that live.
SPEAKER_01And then, yeah, and then you know, this will wrap up, and then we'll also not be able to recap Love Island starts on June 1st. Okay. So we finally get into some summer fun, which I'm excited about.
SPEAKER_04We'll let you guys watch all of that and get and then we'll come back and do some research.
SPEAKER_01Y'all catch up because you know we're gonna be on it.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, yeah. Even though we'll be traveling, we'll be watching it.
SPEAKER_01Okay, as like one of the like fun to have segments. Sometimes I like to spring a question on Zach that he just like doesn't know what it's gonna be. And this is a little different, which I already did with the transition blush.
SPEAKER_04Do you like how I know answers?
SPEAKER_01You actually have been nailing my surprise question. It's actually really good. So one of my favorite things about Zach is like he's such a smart, well-spoken person, but sometimes he pronounces words so cute and funny, and it just tickles me so much. So I'm gonna show camera first what the word is, and then I want to see how you pronounce. There are only five of these.
SPEAKER_04Okay, sure. Well, do you want me to not look at it?
SPEAKER_01Okay, don't look, don't look. Okay. Okay.
unknownOkay.
SPEAKER_04So you're just gonna say it out loud to me and have to say it to me.
SPEAKER_01No, no, no. Now you can say.

SPEAKER_04Well, when you read it, it's easier. If you can read it, you go, okay, I can say it correctly, but when I'm just saying it out of my hand.
SPEAKER_02Damn it, not as good.
SPEAKER_04Not as good, yeah.
SPEAKER_02Shoot. Okay.
SPEAKER_04Well, it's hard for you to how could you tell me what to say? Only two more. Okay. Just luxury goods and crayons. Icelandic.

SPEAKER_01No, it is the D is not a T.
SPEAKER_04It's a T. Everyone is a.
SPEAKER_01Icelantic? Yeah. No, it's Icelandic.

SPEAKER_02I hope you always say it that way.
SPEAKER_04Like a Ticeberg.
SPEAKER_02Okay.
SPEAKER_01Okay.
SPEAKER_00Oh my god. Okay, last one. This is only this is only funny to us.

SPEAKER_00Oh, wait.
SPEAKER_04People who just cardin. So for people who are not watching video, obviously you're just hearing me say things and Kaylee honking. Kaylee a banshee. Oh my god.
SPEAKER_02So that's actually the worst game possible for a podcast. Sorry, you guys.
SPEAKER_04No, that was really anything that makes you happy is honestly my favorite thing. And that made you how how much giggling did you have writing these out?
SPEAKER_01I've just been adding a note in my phone this week, and you said crayons the other day, and I was like, perfect. I needed a fifth one. Okay. And so I've just been giggling to myself.
SPEAKER_04Well, I don't have a similar really fun game, but I think that was more fun for you. To be fair. That will definitely have to be back on our season two finale. Oh my god, yeah. People will definitely be like, how does Zach say things? And let's hear Kaylee just guttural laugh.
SPEAKER_01Well, I'm also really excited to add to my ongoing note of things that people say to Zach when we're traveling.
SPEAKER_04Oh, yeah, that's gonna be a good one. Is there anything new that's been added recently or no?
SPEAKER_01I've added them. Um things that Lauren have said, things that Alex Alex told me. You have a hoarseness about you. Not in a hoarseness. She goes, not in a face way, but like I feel like you would just love a horse.
SPEAKER_04Well, you get uh Julia Fox a lot.
SPEAKER_01Does she have a horse face? Well, I'm gonna say she's got well I think we have big mouths and like we're blonde.
SPEAKER_04I'm just saying that you get I'm just saying that you have a Julia Fox about you. That's all I was gonna and Fox is an animal, so that's that was I was well.
SPEAKER_01I have to tell you that your mullet is inspiring to me.
SPEAKER_04So you guys, my mullet is very inspiring. I can't I never thought I had a mullet until people said I had a mullet, and then I realized I did.
SPEAKER_01You so do. Oh, I don't know what's going on right now, though.
SPEAKER_04I'm just realizing that my medication's right behind you right now. That's great. Those are my pills, y'all.
SPEAKER_01Wow. So we actually are at our most professional for our season finale.
SPEAKER_04That's how it should be. Okay, let's do uh raw and real. Let's do a sip on this. Okay, our final sip on this of the season. Sip on this.
SPEAKER_00Sip on this. Sip on this. Sip on this. Oh, he's sipping on that topo, Chico. My goodness. I was trying to um sip on.
SPEAKER_01Are you buying some time before you have to say yours? No, I'm gonna ask you.
SPEAKER_04What's your sip on this of the week?
SPEAKER_01My sip on this of the season is doing a podcast with your husband.
SPEAKER_04Oh, that is so good.
SPEAKER_01Because I was very reticent. I did not really want to do a podcast. Zach tricked me into doing it.
SPEAKER_03True.
SPEAKER_01He goes, What will she talk about? Beyonce, perfect.
SPEAKER_03Yeah.
SPEAKER_01And that was the gateway drug for me to join your show. And it's been so much fun. I love doing this every week. Same. We do spend pretty much every single moment together, but there's something different about sitting across from each other, no phones, and just like locking. Into conversation.
SPEAKER_04Staring at each other.
SPEAKER_01And staring at each other and locking into conversation, which is the bedrock of our relationship anyway. So it's just so fun. And I love it. And I love giggling with you. And I love also being puzzled by some of the things you say too. But that's also like what? I just love, I'll watch back a clip and I go, Oh my God, I'm like staring at you so intensely because I don't understand where you're going or like what you're about to say, or I don't understand what you're saying, or something. Right. And that's that's like oof.
SPEAKER_04That's how I feel about um myself too. Sometimes I don't want to really hear myself talk back. I love watching you.
SPEAKER_01Oh well, that's very interesting.
SPEAKER_04And I love hearing what you have to say. Um, and most of our clips are actually you anyway. Hi, Dolly.
SPEAKER_01Oh my gosh.
SPEAKER_04And then Dolly is here. Should she make her appearance?
SPEAKER_01So cute. Yeah, pick her up. Just because it's the season finale. Look at her, she's so tired. Oh my, she looks like a different creature right now. She does not even look like a dog.
SPEAKER_04I have to say Dolly.
SPEAKER_00Oh, she's got a big non. She's a sweetheart angel princess.
SPEAKER_04Uh well, okay. I'm sipping on. I mean, that's such a great one. That was very easy and perfect. Yeah. But I guess I'm sipping on a summer of just so much fun and travel. And I hope all of you guys are also gonna do the same thing. I know it's getting warmer, not too warm, but I hope the sun's out for you guys, and you're just gonna have a freaking blast. And you're gonna be out there living your best life because it's been quite a journey for me this last six months.
SPEAKER_00Do you want to say something, Dolly, too? No, she's just so tired.
SPEAKER_01No, she's so stinking.
SPEAKER_04You guys, I love this dog so much. You guys all know that.
SPEAKER_01You're gonna be away from her for a month. We're not sipping on that. I'll tell you that much. Cover up her lady bits though.
SPEAKER_04Are they being are they being shown to the world?
SPEAKER_01Yeah.
SPEAKER_04Okay. All right, you guys. Well, this has been honestly so much fun. We've done over 50 episodes and we've talked about so many things, and I cannot wait to do another 50,000 with you.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, that's right. We're gonna do this for the rest of our lives. Honestly, why not? And the rest of our lives are gonna be very long. I have decided that. So Dolly, do you want to say anything?
SPEAKER_04Hey, Dolly. Dolly, where are Mimi and Pops? Are they here?
SPEAKER_01Okay, no, they're not. Don't get hurt. You would you would be so mad if I did that to her. Well, that was Dolly. That was loud. That was super loud. You're gonna have to. I'll turn that down. Well, we love you guys so much. Thank you for everything. Thank you for listening. Thank you for liking, subscribing, sharing. Yes. Talking to us about it in person, whatever it may be. We appreciate you. And we'll see you back here in like a month or so.
