Happy Wednesday everyone and welcome to the Thick AF podcast. Happy hump day and recording day. For some reason I thought you were going to say happy Hanukkah. It was, it was, yeah. So I'm excited to be here today to hang out on Wednesday and uh. Me too and it's not Hanukkah. It's not Hanukkah. Oh, I know what you're talking about. This TV show? 911. Oh, 911. Yeah. So what's it about? I think it's on like regular TV or whatever but it's on Hulu now.
But it's, I mean, just one of those like firefighter cop shows. But it's, you know, kind of about 911 dispatchers and them getting the calls. And kind of how the folks respond to them. It's not reality. It's scripted. Oh, is it a comedy? No. It's like a comedy. Yeah. It's like serious. And you like it? Yeah. Are they like 30 minute short episodes or like an hour? Ooh. Um, I don't know if they're 30 minutes or not. Honestly. I mean, if it's on regular TV, I would say that they're, yeah.
They gotta be an hour then cause they're probably about 45 minutes long or whatever without commercials. Okay. Cool. I'll have to check that out. I don't know. It was just like it's an, I mean, it's an easy watch sometimes. Sometimes it's not like the anticipation will get you of like, you know, whatever scenario somebody is. Yeah. But, um, it's been a pretty good show so far. I was talking to Santana yesterday about, um, you know, the show Candy that was on Hulu. I did not watch it.
Oh, you didn't watch it? No. I thought you did. Okay. Well, there's another one that's on Amazon Prime. I saw that. And that one is so good. Somebody said something. I saw somebody talk about it today on TikTok. Um, and I have not watched either one, but they didn't make comparisons about the two. They just noted that there were two different ones. And I think that's the one that's on Amazon Prime. I think that's the one that's on Amazon Prime. They just noted that there were two different ones.
Yeah. You know, that you could watch, which I knew about the one that. They're similar, but they're also, they're, I mean, obviously it's the same story, but it's, you know, a little different. Yeah. I like it. I mean, I like, I like the second one. It seems like there's more details or something. I'm not really sure. Yeah. But they're apparently, and I thought it was over, but Santana told me last night that, um, there's like new episodes every week.
And there's another episode coming out soon. I don't know when. Interesting. And I'm really excited. I know I need to go check it out. So yeah. Yay. Well, um, want to do, want to throw us an FMK for the day? Uh, yes. But I gotta find it. Hold please. Um, we'll do female comedians. Female comedians. Yes. Ali Wong. Okay. Amy Schumer. Okay. And Tiffany Haddish. I don't know who Tiffany is.
She was in, she's the black girl that was in, uh, Girls Trip, who's kind of the, I think that's, I think she was in it. You know her if you saw her face. Tiffany Haddish? Yeah. H-I-D-D-I-S-H. That sounds, oh, she's cute, but I have no idea who she is. I've never seen any of her. Does she have like stand up or something? Yes. She does. I need to go watch it, I guess. So I'm going to kill her because I don't know. Oh. But she's in some movies and I don't know, I've never seen any of those either.
I've never seen Girls Trip. Oh gosh. Okay. Never seen Night School. Never seen Nobody's Fool. Never seen Like a Boss. Never seen Bad Trip. All these, I've never seen any of these. Yeah, darn. I'm sorry Tiffany, but I'll go check you out. So I'm going to kill her. She's real cute though. Um, I bet she's funny because she looks like in this picture that she got on Google. She got like her fingers, her hands up like she's on a snack. Yeah, she's sassy for sure.
Um, and then Ali Wong. I like her. I don't think I've seen her stand up though, but I have seen her in like movies and stuff. And I think she's cool. So I'm going to go with marry Amy Schumer, which I know a lot of people don't like her because she's kind of like, like Amy. She's just Amy Schumer. I don't even know how you describe her, but I like her. And I like, honestly, I like Howard Stern and I like all the raunchy stuff and I don't think it's weird.
So I am, I'm going to marry her. I'm going to fuck Ali Wong and I'm going to kill Tiffany. And I'm going in a completely opposite direction. Alright, let's hear it. I'm going to marry Tiffany Haddish because I think that she is hysterical and I think that she would make a fun life partner. And also she's probably a little crazy and bad. I'd want to see what that looks like. And if you're married to somebody, that can happen. Do you want to see what it looks like or see how it is? How it is.
Are you going to watch or are you a boyer? No. Are you going to try to check it out? Is she like bisexual or lesbian? No, I think she's straight. I don't know. I'm just saying. And then I'm going to fuck Ali Wong and I'm killing Amy Schumer. I like her as an actress. I don't like her as a comedian. I think she's boring. Like she's very even keeled and a little monotone. I don't know. I don't think so.
I'm a teamster. I should have just put her in here because she is so funny and she makes me laugh so hard. I've never laughed out loud at Amy Schumer. Really? I have. I like her a lot. I don't know why you think she's like plain. I think she's hilarious. I don't know. I don't know either. That's weird that we would think different. But I don't know. One day you told me you were like, I don't think you would like her that comedy thing on like a net. I can't remember who it was.
And I was like, I've seen it and I liked it. Who? Nikki Blazer? I don't honestly like her as much as I like Amy Schumer. Well, I was going to say you'd probably like Nikki Glaser because she has no qualms about the Raunchy stuff. Well, yeah, but I also don't. I don't I don't know. I don't like her as much. I don't know why. Yeah, I don't like her stand up, but I liked her little show that she had on Hulu.
Oh, I never watched that. Yeah. I mean, it was just like a little eight episode show and I don't know if it's coming back for season two. But she's on Howard Stern a lot like they have her as like, I guess she was on this Hollywood Hollywood squares on there. She's funny outside of her stand up. Like, I like it when she interacts with other people better than just watching her stand.
Well, I thought it was weird that they had her on there because she's like famous, but she had they had her on there with like all of the the whack back. Oh, my gosh. I have listened. My dad canceled my serious are serious, serious exam for. So you haven't been listening to it for like two months and I'm like, I can't believe you're just now telling me that it's been like the longest time. That's why you're not sleeping because your day is ruined every fucking morning.
I know. It's true because that was like what I woke up to and I woke up for. I want to go to work on this and Howard Stern. What are you talking about? Oh, no. Now I know why. Yeah, I know. And it's like, what the hell, Grand Dan? I know, Grand Dan. Like, listen, last time he canceled, he didn't cancel it on purpose. What he does, he calls him. He's like, I'm retired and I can't afford the price to go up another year.
So he calls him and then they like he like haggles them with for another deal for the next year. And they always take the Howard off. And I don't think he knows. And then like the next morning I'll wake up and it'll be like gone. And I'm like, Dad, did you just call? No. Oh, wait. Hold on. This is what he does. I forgot. He gets a new truck. He trades his truck in and he gets the trial that doesn't include Howard Stern.
Oh, no. And so then after the trial's over, he'll get the Howard Stern thing, I guess. But he's trying to use the free thing because, you know, he's retired on a fixed income. OK, well, how much longer do you have to wait for? I have no idea. He may not even pay for the new one. He asked me. He's like, do you have to have it last time? And I complained. I was like, oh, my God, what am I going to do? I was like, never mind. I'll just get it myself.
And he was like, it's OK. And he called and got it for me. And I was like, oh, my God, that's so nice. Well, it sounds like you need to make a call to Grand Dan. I already told him. I said, did you do it again? He's like, oh, thanks. So and I'm like, yeah, you did. We've already talked. I just figured I don't want to I don't want to make him have to pay for it. He's on a fixed income. I get it. So I mean, I'm on a fixed income, too. They don't give me a raise. But you know what I mean? So, OK.
So I have a confession to make. Oh, God. No, it's not bad. Are you sure? Yeah, I promise. Last week's episode, when we were recording, I was like, I'm so excited for you to talk about this. I thought we were talking about something completely different than what we were talking about. What were we talking about? I was excited to talk about what we're actually going to talk about today. Oh, yeah. So I'm excited to talk about it.
I remember I was like, I was like, OK, like you're super excited about me. You're like, I'm not the one in a relationship. You are. I'm excited for you to talk about it. OK, cool. I don't know why you're excited. It's weird. Well, we had the day before we had been at the pool and we were talking about this one topic. And I thought that's what we were going to talk about on Sunday when we recorded it. And it was not. Oh, my God. That's I just let it go.
At least I didn't say it. And then, you know, we didn't talk about it. So. All right. Well, let you introduce your little topic. OK. So, OK. I the other day, you know, I wake up in the morning and sometimes not all the times. Not to Howard Stern anymore. Yeah, because I don't have Howard anymore. It makes me so sad, like because I don't have Howard anymore. I was scrolling through Instagram and an ad like, you know, you pop. It pops up and sometimes there's like an ad or something right there.
And it was this thing and it was like a ring for single people to wear. It was like, are you single? And I'm like, yeah. And it's like and I'm like, what does that mean? Like, is it going to give me like some kind of weird thing? And it's like, you know what I mean? Are you single? Weird thing. You know, like, are you single? Click yes. And if you click yes, it's like come to the I don't know. Like, oh, my God, I don't know. Some stupid thing. You got sucked in by the ad.
So I got sucked into the ad and I'm start looking at it and whatever. And it is this thing called a pair ring. P.A.R. R.I.N.G. And it is the ring. It's basically an engagement ring for single people, but not engagement. It's for a ring for people because they say that, OK, people get engaged or they get married and they get to wear a ring.
And that says they're claimed. But there's not a ring for people or there's nothing to show that you're actually single, which I mean, obviously not having a ring means you're single. But I will tell you that my parents have never worn like I've literally never seen my parents wear wedding rings. Really? Yeah, they have them wedding bands. But like they my mom, like they don't wear. My mom is really all for my parents wear wedding bands, rings, whatever.
But I will say that my dad has like a ring from Wal-Mart because he originally had my stepmom's late father's ring and they have horses and they were washing horses one day and he lost the wedding band while he was washing horses. And he was really upset because he knew that that meant a whole lot to Connie. He eventually found it, but then he very quickly went to Wal-Mart to find another ring, a ring that was not that one.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You wear the other ring when the special occasions and then when you're working, you don't. So so there's this ring and I'm like, you know what? This is kind of dumb. But I was like I text Sarah and I was like, this would actually be kind of cool for me to do because, you know, it's it's basically what there's what pair ring. I don't know. It's like pair ring. I'll tell you what the website is in a minute.
But they're basically trying to say that they want to get rid of dating apps. And I'm going to pull it up. Is it meant to be worn on your ring finger or? It doesn't matter. OK. I wear it on whatever finger you want. It's like this teal looking ring. Let me open up the store so they have a whole community. And it's so when you pull it up, it says it's pair P.A.R. R.I.N.G. dot C.O. So pairing dot co.
And you pull it up and it looks like a scam. Like honestly, if I I probably got scammed out of twenty five dollars. But oh shit, I forgot you bought it. Yeah, I did buy it. OK. So it says, are you single? And it's like going around in a circle and has parent and you say yes or no. I wonder what happens if I say no, but I'm going to press yes so that we can talk about it. But I'll press no in a minute. And it says at the top, it has like this thing going across.
It's like second release is about to sell out free shipping today. And it's like basically looks like a scam. And yeah, it's a joint experiment. It's calling it. I like that they're calling it that. Yeah, that that's cool. And it's the world's biggest social experiment. Well, and I think it's one of those things where it's it's has the potential to go viral, you know, if it hasn't already.
And then, you know, maybe six months from now, you're going to see a shit ton of people that are single or at least want to elude that they're single with these rings on. Yeah. And so it's so it's a single question mark introducing pair in the real life social experiment taking the world by storm. Live in USA, UK, Germany, Canada, Australia and hashtag not a dating app. Dang. So you can travel the world and find. Yeah, that's cool.
But it says 76 percent of people are open to being chatted up in real life. And basically it's saying that this is not a dating app. It's a ring that is worn to identify who's single and open to conversation IRL in real life. So you know what that means, right? If you wear that ring in real life and you're out and about and somebody starts chit chatting with you, you can't be annoyed because that ring is saying, hey, I'm open to conversation. Right. I guess I'm talking to you.
You'll be annoyed that that person came over like like it doesn't like just because you have that ring on doesn't mean that you are the one that should talk to me. I'm just kidding. But you know what I mean? No, you're not. OK, so and it says one ring worn by every single person pair makes it easy to know who is single around you and open to meeting. Oh, I already read that a small subtle subtle is you say subtle or subtle there. You do not pronounce the T and it. Wait, what?
No, you don't pronounce the B. Yeah. Subtle, a subtle subtle ring subtle. It looks cool. I like to say subtle. It's kind of cool. OK. But I'm going to say subtle, a small subtle. If I wasn't reading it, I wouldn't say subtle. I say subtle. But look, when you read it, it's like a small subtle ring that makes a big statement. OK. And then it says where pair wherever you go in a bar, on a train, at the gym, on vacation, at your friend's wedding, in a restaurant, walking to work, walking to work.
OK. Connecting the world without filters and apps. And then it's 20. So you get 20. You pay $25 and it's a one off payment to participate. 100 percent of the profits go toward growing the social experiment around the world. Basically, to me, this means $25. You get like the probably whatever it probably costs him 50 cents to get this ring and send it to you and like whatever shipping was. And then the rest of the money goes to whoever made this. And like basically they're not doing anything.
Well, you never know. Maybe I don't think they'll because they're trying to, you know, very much so say this is not an app, but they could have some sort of community page or something in the future. Well, they do. OK, so I'll tell you what you get. OK, it says 94 percent sold out. This is not a subscription. Subscription. I would never be able to read like a I mean, maybe never say never. But I feel like if I was reading a teleprompter, I'd be like, subtle, subtle, small ring.
OK, just a one off participation fee to join the experiment. Blah, blah, blah. Pair can be worn any finger you choose. Ring holders will be issued a unique membership number. Get invited to Pair Fest and get access to exclusive free events in your city, which honestly, there's probably not going to be any events in Birmingham until like maybe this gets like really big. But I highly doubt it because Birmingham, I feel like is like the last place.
Like it's like love is blind won't come here. So Pair probably won't either. Just saying I'm just complaining because I feel like Birmingham is the best. I love Birmingham so much and I think that more things need to come here. But people think that Alabama is the worst and that we're all dumb idiots, which I mean, there's some dumb idiots, but there's also some dumb idiots in California and New York and like all over the place.
So come to Birmingham. Just just stay for a little bit and go back home. Just kidding. Come to Birmingham. We like it here. OK, so then you get let's see. So I ordered it. And let me go see if I can find anything out. Oh, this is not another dating app. This is the most natural way to meet people. So basically they want you to wear this ring and go out and like try to meet people.
Well, I think it's giving folks an avenue or invitation, if you will, to communicate with each other outside of just randomly walking up to somebody and hoping that they're also single and open and interested in, you know, talking to somebody else. Yeah. And then so there's this pair fest and it's like Paris hosting the world's first singles festival.
Only I have no idea. It'll probably tell me it'll probably be in like Australia and I'll be like, I'm not going. And it's saying that you can go for free for your twenty five dollars. No, I got to pay like four million dollars to fly over there and get a hotel. OK, so they're hosting the world's big world's first singles festival. So it'll be like all it's like a singles cruise, but a festival and you have to have a ring to be able to participate.
So but do you have to wear your ring there? Because like if you're wearing it, I mean, everybody already knows that you're single because you're part of the pair thing. I don't know. Whatever. OK, so I ordered this because I was like, you know what? I hate the dating apps. I think this is a very good idea. I also I do think that not wearing a ring like a wedding ring or an engagement ring means that you're single.
So like, OK, but I like what Sarah was saying the other day and today sort of she was saying it's just saying that like, OK, it's kind of like a conversation starter like, oh, hey, you have a pairing like blah, blah, blah. Yeah. Well, and then you also have people who like I'm Brandon can't wear a ring at work. Like he will never be able to wear a ring at work doing what he does now. Oh, right. Gotcha. So that what he just just what he told you. I'm just kidding.
He could wear he could wear like one of those little silicone rings. I don't know if they can. OK. Interesting. There's equipment that it could get caught in. No, no, no, no. I don't think so. You swear to love and no, I don't know unless it's got like a big diamond hanging off. I don't think he's going to be wearing one of those. Well, what do you think you think it's going to like? Honestly, I'm probably the first person that even bought one.
And I'm especially in Birmingham. Listen, it was 97 percent sold out. So you ain't the first. But also, you know, that's what they said on the scam website. But OK, so what I'm thinking is that I'm going to be like nobody's going to have one. And I think regardless of whether you're the only person to have one or everybody else in Birmingham has one, it's still a conversation starter. And it's an opportunity, you know, for you to, you know, possibly meet other folks and ask why you have that on.
They're going to think you're married and just don't have a diamond on. I've talked to people all the time at the bars and stuff and nobody ever like wants to talk to me about dating. Isn't that sad? I would never want to meet anyone at a bar anyways. Why? I don't know. Like at a brewery or something? That's different than like a bar. That's the same as a bar. I mean, I don't know. I don't go to like the bar like I don't go to a club. I mean, I don't know. I don't.
You're always helping other people. That's true. I am always. But that's usually how it I am always helping other people. You have to look out for yourself. I know it sucks because you are the first to facilitate other people's conversations. I thought about this the other day and I was like, you know what? Like usually I think that I try to help other people because subconsciously I think that nobody would ever really be into me.
I don't know why. Which is the dumbest thing ever. Is that sad that I feel that way? I don't know why. But I mean, you shouldn't feel that way. Yeah, I know. And maybe subconsciously I don't want like that. I don't know. I have no idea. Maybe I need to go to a psychiatrist or a therapist to talk through my dating issues. You might could. I don't feel like I have an issue with it. I just feel like. I mean, I think it's I do. And I think that everybody has their own individual self-confidence.
And then I think that there's probably always a little bit of doubt within all of us about whatever it might be. What we have going on in our life, our abilities, our looks, you know, what have you, or, you know, a little bit of post-traumatic stress from like past relationships or dating experiences or whatever that can put you on the road to doubting yourself. But. You find somebody to talk to. Oh, my gosh. We went to the dog park today and there was this guy there that was kind of cute.
He had a dog there and I thought he was kind of cute, but I was like trying to look, see it and ring on because I never do that. And I couldn't tell. And but he had the cutest little dog. So I'm going to start going back to see if he shows back up. And so I talked to him some more. Oh, I think you should do that for sure. He was kind of like not what I would normally go for, but he was kind of cute, like had like dark hair and was like had glasses on.
I think you're going to have to do morning affirmations instead of Howard now. Morning affirmation in the mirror out loud. WTF. Listen, I think I'm amazing. You are. I am amazing. I just for some reason I feel I think I'm a great person. I think I don't think I'm ugly. I think I'm beautiful. I look in the mirror like I had the opposite of anorexia and like what do they have? What do they say? Body dysmorphia. I have the opposite of that.
I look in the mirror and I see a skinny girl. Me too. I know. And then people try to tell me that I need to lose weight for my health. Who told you that? Well, we won't talk about that on here because they might hurt their feelings, but because I need to be healthy or something. I know who it is then. Well, you do. But I'm like I look in the mirror and I'm like, really? I feel like I look good.
But that's all that matters. And I think that's something that you have to continuously remember and tell yourself. Well, but I know that I don't like I know that I'm not a small girl and I know that I'm not a small person and that normally, typically people don't go after that. Like men have not typically gone after like that. I mean, listen, I can sit here and and fully understand exactly how you feel.
Right. And that's how that's how I feel. So I get I feel like I'm always trying to hook up other people because I feel like those people would not really want to be like into me because of my weight, I guess. Yeah, I listen, I full on get it. Yeah. I mean, I know you do. And I mean, even though like I did like match with Brandon on the apps, that's not really truly how like we ended up dating. But I mean, I think this pairing at least, you know, gives you some sort of avenue to meet some folks.
Right. Because I do not everybody knows I don't like the dating app stuff. You have fun with it sometimes. And then I haven't. No, I don't like it. I don't. I know you don't. I know that. But I'm not saying that you're like lying about it or whatever. I'm saying it's entertaining for a period of time and then it becomes a chore and a job and no longer entertain.
I haven't entertained it in over a year. Remember? Yeah. We talked about that last January whenever I went. Yeah. On a date. And then I was like, after that, I didn't even touch it. I haven't touched it. But I think I also think that it's OK to just be happy and content with where you are in life as a single person. You don't just because you're single doesn't mean that you should be constantly out there searching for your person.
Well, I'm not right. Yeah. And I think that that's OK. And as long as that's, you know, you're OK with that and where you're at, you know, in this moment and chapter of your life, then that's all that matters. You don't just because we, you know, do a podcast about life, dating, relationships, whatever, doesn't mean you got to be on the hunt. Well, I'm not on the hunt.
But, you know, sometimes I like wonder about it. I'm like, maybe I should be. Am I going to regret not doing this later? Is my is what I worry about. If you're not questioning that at all, then the answer is yes. If that seed is already in your mind right now at this moment. Yes, you're right. I also don't want to do it.
I like and I have so much other stuff on my plate. Like now I'm on the board for the H.O.A. and I do this podcast and then like I have four animals and I have a lot of friends and it's just a lot. I feel like if I had a boyfriend, they would want me to like have more time to spend with them and I wouldn't be able to do it. Or you could just bring them along. Do what I do. Well, normally I hope I would hope that I don't know. We won't get into that.
But yeah, so the dating app, I don't know. We'll see what this pairing does. So we're going to once I get it, let me see if I can find a tracking. I have it on my shop app because oh, by the way, I ordered another T.A. three bathing suit. No, you did it on the 12th. What is it? Freaking black. I got the square. I knew you would. Oh, my God. It's but I'm worried about this one because it doesn't it doesn't the straps don't go adjust all the way around.
But I'm really excited about it because the other ones that I have are too high cut. Listen, and I got this bathing suit on Saturday to the pool and it's the plunge T.A. three bathing suit. That's also high cut. It was not too high cut by any means. And also the plunge. She was like, I look like what do you say? Who's your mama or something? I had my titties out. Yeah. That was not the case at all. My tits were way more out and yours were.
They were. But I just feel like I don't know. And that bathing suit, it's like the bottom. I don't know if it doesn't it just doesn't fit right. I feel like every time I moved like it was going to because it's kind of loose. But it's also tight. It's like tight everywhere else. But it's like I don't know. Regular torso or the regular one. But the short one, I got a short one and it's like real short. And I'm like in between. I'm like five, three and a half.
And they say anybody below five. Well, but I'm technically kind of five or but like I have big boobs. So I was like, if I have I need to get the regular one, it's a whole thing. So I'm going to try this one to see. But I like it. But also, OK, so there's this new app that they have. And I forgot not app. It's a thing that I did. And it's called something on the T3 website and you get points back. And so I got like twenty something dollars on my purchase to spend at that place.
So next time I get to buy another one, I get like twenty something dollars off. There you go. Of these really effing expensive bathing suits. Yeah. So I'm excited about that. But yeah, it'll be coming in. And I'm pumped about that. So my ring, I'm looking at it. It says the order has shipped. Oh, by the way, you get three rings. You get a small, a medium and a large. So like you don't have to like measure your finger or whatever.
And you can wear it on whatever finger you so you want to wear it on your pinky. You could probably wear the small or whatever. Or if it because me, because I have like really big fingers. I probably need the large. I probably need a medium on my pinky, honestly. But I told Christina, our friend Christina, who is single, that I would give her whichever one, probably the small one if I don't want the small one. But but yeah, so hopefully it'll be it doesn't say when it's going to be here.
It does say that it shipped, but it doesn't have a tracking. So that's a little sad. But I'm excited. We'll see. Yeah. I'm going to have to go out a lot then. All right. But that means I'm just going to go to the dog park like a bunch now. Well, I have a dog. OK, bring your dog. Yeah. So I'm excited about that. OK, cool. What's next? Let's see here. OK, so we were going to talk about some more like we talked about dating apps pretty much and how I don't like it and online dating.
But like I have a question for you. Yes, ma'am. Well, so would you could you ever be like in an open relationship? No, I don't want to share. What are you so selfish for? Just kidding. You wouldn't either. I would not. No, I'm sorry. And it's not because I don't like sharing. It's because I don't I don't like sharing genitals. Yeah, that's what I mean. Also, also because I don't know why.
I guess it's because, you know, honestly, I wonder if we had ever like grown up, if we had been grown, if we excuse me, we had been taught as children that like open relationships were how things were supposed to be. Yeah, you weren't supposed to get married and like stay with the same person and blah blah blah. Do you think that like how crazy would life be? It would be wild. That would be so crazy.
I can't even imagine. I can't. There would be babies everywhere. I mean, there's already babies everywhere, but everybody be having babies. No, and no, no hate, no shade to anybody who lives that lifestyle. I'm good for you. You know, whatever. I think if I had to be in an open relationship, it would be one of those don't ask, don't tell. I don't want to know anything about what you're doing, who you're doing it with. Whatever. Don't bring that shit home.
Leave it. Oh, my God. Mine would not be known as don't tell. I would be like, you better tell me every little thing. I don't know. I don't like that. Don't ask. I'll tell because if they don't ask, don't tell. And you know, they're going out and doing something. I would be like, oh, they're cheating on me. Oh, what are they doing? What are they doing? Well, I mean, and I get what you say, but then I feel like if I were to say, I want to know every detail, it would consume me.
I would need to put a camera on everything. I would. It would make me question everything all day, every day. Yeah, they have to wear a body cam like the police. I need to see what that person is doing to you, like what they're saying. I don't think I could handle it emotionally. I'm not built for that. Yeah, you definitely couldn't. I could not either. I could not. And if I can't, you definitely can't. Yeah. No, that would not be good.
No. Yeah. But I feel like you wouldn't be like mad. You would just be like really sad. Yeah, I would. My anxiety would overtake my life and I would probably slip into a depression. Oh, Lord. So we already talked about like hall passes one time, but like, would you allow it? I mean, if it were some sort of ridiculous celebrity situation and like they were like fuck J. Lowe. Hell, yeah. Let him fuck J. Lowe. Would you would he need to wear a body cam?
Yeah. J. Lowe would be like, no, it has to sign an NDA. J. Lowe has gotten Ben. So and you know, I love Ben, even though he's crazy. Yeah, but like it. I feel like there are some people out here that don't have, you know, quote unquote, like formal open relationships, but they do like a hall pass like every five years or something. I would never do that. No, I can't. I mean, to me, it's they're not the same thing, but like I don't want to go.
I don't want to do the work to have to find somebody else to bang. You know what I mean? I don't like that. I don't either. I don't even want to get on a dating app to do it. Like, that's the easiest way to find somebody to go. I don't even want to do that. I like honestly, I just feel like I'll just be celibate for the rest of my life. Is that the word celibate? Yes. Celebrate. No, we are not celebrating celibacy. No, we are not. I feel that. I mean, we are.
That's your choice or whatever, but not for you know, you need to get some dick. Oh, my God. Oh, Lord have mercy. I need some vitamin D, apparently. Yes. My mom always says I need vitamin D, but she's talking about the sun. Or like I need to take a look. I'm giving you a different prescription. Oh, my God. Oh, see, my thing is I can't just like go out and like do that. No. Yeah, I would never be able to do that. No, I mean, it's yeah, that's foreign to me.
Yeah, I can't just I mean, it didn't used to be, but now it is. Now we're older. Yeah. Well, it's always kind of been that way for me. It's most. Yeah. OK, so could you like speaking about like open relationships and things like that, do you think that you could be in love with more than one person at once? No, I don't I don't know. I mean, it's never been a situation that I've been in. So I can't like firsthand say. Yes, obviously, because it's not been a situation that I've been in.
But I would find it very hard to believe that I could say yes to that. So what do you think about like if you were on Love is Blind and there were two guys and you were like, oh, my God, I mean, I think I'm in love with both of them. I mean, I don't think that is the best example to give, I guess, because when they're doing that show, they're in these pods for 10 days. I don't care what anybody says they get proposed to. They know that they're going, you know, on to the next step.
I don't know if for real, for real, like the day that they meet and see one another, they're truly for real, for real in love. Yeah. You know what I mean? I feel you. Like I think that they can say that. And I think saying it and meaning it are two different things as well. Like I think that there are times that those folks say it and they don't necessarily mean it. But it's just like this is this is the plan of this social experiment, if you will.
But I think that the more intense feelings would develop later. So could you love someone and care about them? Sure. Are you in love with them after 10 days? There ain't no way. Interesting. I don't know. I want to hear your thoughts about being in love with multiple people at once. I think that it's very possible because you know what?
Like I love I mean, and in love versus loving someone like I don't know what people you know, like the difference like if you're like, I mean, I love my family, like my parents and stuff, but I'm not going to like go like have sex with them, you know? Oh, my God. Well, obviously. But like if if if you're saying, can you love more than one person at once? Yes, of course, because I love a lot of people. But like, can you be in love like like sexually?
I think or like I think it's hard for me to like. It's hard for me to think about because I'm in a relationship currently. So like me thinking about being in love with somebody else right now while I'm, you know, with Brandon in love with Brandon, probably go marry him is very hard for me to think about. So do I think that it's a possibility? Sure. Do I think that that's ever going to be my situation? No. Right. I think that it's I think that you can be.
I mean, I would have to cheat. I don't have that. I would ever want to be like, yeah, I don't want. I don't ever want that scenario. I don't ever want that possibility even. Yeah. So, OK, so that OK, so I have another thing to ask you. OK. And so this is going to be kind of interesting. OK, so if you if Brandon were out somewhere and like some girl or guy, probably more I don't think you'd be like jealous about the girl, but the guy, I mean, the guy.
Let's start over again. Yeah. So some girl decides to like pull Brandon aside and like starts kissing him. But Brandon didn't didn't initiate that kiss. Brandon's just talking to this person. This girl starts making out with him and he's like, whoa, he's pulled into it. And then he's like, whoa, hold on or whatever. Would you be mad at Brandon? Because OK, so a lot of times like you watch these TV shows or movies or whatever.
We kissed and like the girl or the guy or whoever is in the other the other party to this is like y'all kiss. And that's all that matters. And you are to blame. And they get mad at the guy, even though it was like the girl that grabbed him and like kissed him or something. Well, I have some context questions. Am I there when it happens?
We'll do yes first. OK, if I'm there when it happens and I can visually see that there is like it's just some crazy drunk girl and there's no physical participation, like some girls just walking by, you know, climbs him like a tree and plants one on him. Well, what if he's like talking to a girl at the bar or something or if that girl and you're there and the girl. It's not like a random like she just like jumps on him and kisses him.
It's like they're talking first and then I think I would not be OK with that because you it would make me feel like he gave off some sort of vibe, sign vibe, whatever that invited that person into his space. Yes, I agree with that. OK, so if you weren't there and it happened, how would you feel?
I would feel the same as what I just said. You obviously gave somebody the thought in their mind that it was OK to do that and get close enough to you, your face, your lips, whatever, to lay a smooch on you. I'm not OK with that. OK, yeah, I'm on board with that. OK, cool. Yeah, so Brandon, don't be making out with no hoes at the bar because you go to the bar all the time, you know. I mean, it doesn't have to be at the bar. It could be at work. It could be you never know.
OK, so would you die for your partner, for Brandon or for any of your people? Yeah, of course. You would die for Brandon. Yeah, she hesitated. Don't start no shit. I think maybe, but in our heads she's thinking, yeah, but he better die for me first. Well, I mean, yeah, his answer better be the same, but also, like, I guess it might depend on what kind of death. Like, I don't want to be tortured for him. Like, he said the craziest laugh and look on your face.
You're scared. I mean, I don't know, slip my throat, shoot me in the head, something like that if you have to. But like, I don't want to be tortured for him. No, like if they had a gun to his head, would you be like, don't take him? Take me kind of thing that was real loud. I don't. That's a terrible scenario. Yeah, it is a terrible scenario, but this is this is what we're trying to get at. Like, would you do that? I mean, yeah, you don't want to answer it.
Yeah, if I had to. OK, the answer is no, people. It's not. No, you. Yeah, but ask. She asked me another question earlier. Hold on. OK. All right. Go ahead. OK. But yeah. Yes, I would take a bullet. Would you do that for your mom or dad or your sister? Yeah, absolutely. Would you do it? Would you die for your sister over Brandon? If I had to like if you had to choose if if I were like one of y'all is going to die.
No, two of you guys is going to die. And it's going to be Sarah and either Jerry or Brandon. Wait, hold on. I didn't do that right. Did I? No, just say, OK, so they could say they were going to say, OK, Jerry or Brandon's going to die. But you can put yourself in place of one of them. Both of them are going to die. You can put your place in one of them. You can take one of their places. Which one would you take? I'm not letting my sister die. I know.
Oh, yeah. Absolutely not. OK. Sorry, Brandon. You don't die. We haven't known you that long. OK, so also here's the other one. Would you give your kidney to Brandon? Yeah, I got to. OK. So I told Sarah this earlier, like she would give. But OK, so what? OK, here we go. Let me do this scenario. What if Brandon and Jerry needed both needed a kidney and you were a match for both of them? And you can only give one, obviously. I'm already I'm picking Jerry again. I'm not. I am.
I know it's OK until he puts a ring on my finger. I'm picking Jerry. What about Melanie and Brandon? You should see the look on Sarah's face. That was hilarious. OK, don't answer that question. You're putting me in a really bad position. I think it's hilarious. I love it. I mean, it is a bad position, but these are the questions. These are the tough questions that you ask yourself before you get married. OK, Melanie is like my sister. I probably say Melanie. That's what I'm saying.
OK, I'm just saying Brandon Brandon can't get mad at me for the love of Jesus. Brandon can get like one of his brother's sisters or some mom or somebody to get a kidney. Yeah, he got a sister. She can say, yeah. OK, so. But OK, so I was just saying, I think that deciding whether or not you would give if you will not give your kidney to your partner or significant boyfriend, girlfriend, significant other, you should not get married to that person. But that's I did say I would get my I know.
But I'm just saying I think that should be a deciding factor in like getting married. Oh, you. But also, I think that if I think that if you would give your sister your kidney and your best friend your kidney over your boyfriend, you probably shouldn't get married to them either. Just kidding. But that's funny, right? No, no. You think it's oh, no, you can't. You're like I put you in a hot spot, didn't I? That's a really hard. Oh, my God. I don't know what I would say either.
I can't wait for you to start dating somebody so I can do this shit to you. OK. Maybe the ring pairing. Please come through because I need to roast Emily for an episode. Oh, my God. OK, so let's see what else we got. Oh, all right. What are some things that you guys that couples fight about? Oh, I don't know, because I haven't been I haven't been in a couple in a long time.
So I pulled up it's an article, but I'm not really going to read the article, but I'm just going to list them so we can just kind of talk about them. Divisions of labor in laws, the timing of life events, divisions of labor. Oh, like at the house chores, I would assume. Yeah. Quality time together. I want to know what y'all argue about. Like not like a list from the Internet's. I mean, I think the thing that we probably argue about the most is like hasty decision making.
Because Brandon makes decisions quick and you don't. Yeah. Or you want him to consider you maybe in decisions. I mean, yeah, but like there's not been any decision that's like been made that like sent me off the deep end or anything like that. But he just he gets so excited about things sometimes that he will just either say, do order, you know, try to start planning, you know, whatever, and not necessarily like sit back and be like, OK, like, what are the pros and cons of whatever is happening?
And not everything needs like some major. Oh, my God. Cons or whatever. If you want somebody to do pros and cons, you got your girl right here. 100 percent. Listen, I don't make a lot of I don't make a lot. If I do make a lot of if I do make a decision on a whim. I don't do it a lot. Yeah, it's bad. I mean, right. Like we're I don't know. We're just in a good spot. You know, within our relationship, we communicate a lot. We ask the hard questions.
We have the discussions that nobody else wants to have. Like I usually start the laundry and he folds it. I hate folding. I don't like to do it. I'm the one who is loading the dishwasher mainly because I know how to do it correctly. So they they argue about the wrong the right and wrong way to do to load the dishwasher. There we go. What else you are? Tell me what else you are good about and I'll tell you what you're arguing about.
Him snoring and waking up in the morning early and waking you up. But he doesn't do that anymore. No. And I snore, too. And I'm probably snore worse than he does. Oh, my God. I told her that in the beginning. She was like in the beginning when they first started dating. Sarah was like, oh, my God, Brandon snores. And this was like really early. She like spent the night and she'd be like, I was up all night because Brandon snores. And I was like, honey, you probably snored him out worse than you.
He's snoring you out. OK. She's like, I had to move. No, I don't know if did you ever move to like the couch or anything? The only time that I had to do that is when we were house sitting for my parents one time. And he was just it was one of those nights where he was just exhausted. And my parents beds also like 20 frickin years old. And so in the middle of the night, I could not go to sleep. I went to the couch first, couldn't sleep there. So then I went up to my old bedroom.
Oh, yeah. I remember that. Yes. And I had to. You were like I had to leave. This was very early. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That's funny, though. I think that was right after Christmas, maybe. I can't remember. And you know what else they argue about? They argue about him kicking sand on her at the beach. Oh, that was the worst. No, I mean, I don't.
I think the only other thing we might argue about is sometimes like I may not appreciate like an inappropriate joke or two or something, but it's not an argument. I'm just like, God, what are they? Give me an example of one of the inappropriate jokes that he does. Oh, I don't even know. Like what type of an inappropriate joke? Like something sexual or something like you don't where you don't have to take it there, especially when we're in a coed group of people or whatever, like that.
And it may just be a me thing. Everybody else may be fine with it. And it may just make me a little uncomfortable or whatever. I'm just like, why? Well, maybe because it it's like kind of like he's talking about. It's not that he's talking about you, but it's like because you all are the sex. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I get that. But obviously nobody else is thinking those things. I mean, if we did, I'd be like, you know, I have a look on my face like and I'd probably be like Brandon.
No, we communicate very well. I'm very appreciative of him being open and he lets me bitch about things and doesn't get mad at me. Yeah. I'm my Carol from my the my condos is calling me. I have to send her a message really quick. Sorry. So I told her I'm recording, but she did say I told her I was going to be done at seven thirty and I was going to come back over there at seven forty three. We'll wrap it up. Well, but I want to know what else are you about?
That's it. I'm fine. Listen, we have dug into me and Brandon enough tonight. This episode wasn't even supposed to be about us. All right. Then you know what? Find us on Instagram, guys.
