Speaker 1: I made a decision. Pay sunny sound. I had a vision.
It's nice. What's up, everybody?
Speaker 2: Welcome to our fun for crying out loud Tuesday episode.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we're gonna have fun. We sure are. We're gonna
liven it up. We're gonna keep it light and tight.
Hell yeah, did you see SNL Did you see? I
heard all of that.
Speaker 2: I mean, I've seen all the posts about it. Oh,
I wanted to ask you about that.
Speaker 1: It was Nicky Glazer, you see it? I saw.
Speaker 3: I didn't see the episode, although I heard it was
pretty funny. I just saw the monologue. I was so
curious as to your take on it. I personally, I
think Nikki Glaser is very funny and I enjoy everything
she does. I did find some of the joke to
be so uh like cringe like just like oh really,
Like I just read it, So I didn't see it,
but I read like the like some of this the
transcripts or whatever that was posted in one of the
many articles that came across my feed. So I read
some of it, and personally I wasn't offended, but I
could see how other people could really be offended. Okay,
I mean, she just had some jokes about it. It's like,
it's not like I'm up tight, so obviously I call
everyone cunts all the time, so it's it was more
the tone of it was like how kind of pick
me girl? Kind of like, oh, like I'm like a guy,
like I'll just make jokes about like incest and like
taking a shower with your four year old and like, well,
how do you I'm not going to molest them.
Speaker 1: It's she knew what she was doing, don't you think.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, it's just I guess I felt, well,
like I've seen so many better jokes from her. But
then I was talking to my friend who was like, well,
that's a lot of stuff was right straight from her act. Uh,
and and her act does better in a comedy club, right,
probably when she's not you know what it was. I
think she seemed a little self conscious telling the jokes,
and when you don't fully commit to a joke about incest,
it could come off as a little bit.
Speaker 2: Like, oh, I see, I guess I needed to watch
it in person. But yeah, I mean, I do think
that she is just that comic that likes to get
that kind of attention, and I think that she probably
was just going to go out there and go for
it and knew that she would probably have some backlash,
but was like, fuck it, I don't care. That seems
to me how she would I don't know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I totally defend her right to say those jokes.
It was nothing.
Speaker 3: She wasn't she wasn't punching down right, I have no
issue with it. I was just cure, like it just
wasn't super funny.
Speaker 1: Right, yeah, as opposed to like read funny. Right.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's interesting because I was, like I said, I
saw a bunch of things from like these conservative you know,
publications like the New York Post going it was offensive
or what you know, it was.
Speaker 1: Like it wasn't it was offensive just.
Speaker 3: Because it wasn't if you're going to make a joke
about molesting children, like it should be funnier to make
it worth the fact that, like you told that, like
I don't know, you know who's good at that is
Louis c k Oh Yeah, right, Like it's it you
see why the he says something super edgy, but he's
making a joke, and you're like, okay, I see why
you went it was worth the way, Yeah, because it
was very funny and dark, but it wasn't really worth
the pay. It was like, I'm just saying something kind
of crazy, like just want but it was cringe.
Speaker 1: So that's yeah, yeah interesting. Wow. All right, So your
week it was fine. I think I do.
Speaker 2: I have like some stuff that happened. I had a
nice FaceTime with Sonny Bunny.
Speaker 1: The other night. It was so he's so cute. I
miss him so much.
Speaker 2: I'm going to see him this weekend because he bought
tickets to the Big Game, so he's got all these
plans with his friends. So I'm just flying in on
Friday and flying back Saturday.
Speaker 1: The game's Friday night. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Well, first of all, there's not a lot of
flights available right now, so it was just like one
flight out, direct flight out, and Sandra Green told me
to go check out Alaska Airlines, which I've done before,
but I don't have miles with them, but she was right, yeah,
they do have direct flights anyway. Going to see him,
so I had a nice, like two hour FaceTime. He
was working on this project for one of his film
classes that he was very proud. It's like this movie
from the thirties called Vampire, which is Vampire. It's a
German movie and anyway, he worked so hard on it.
He had to do a presentation in front of the class.
He had slides. We went through all the slides. Then
he showed me clips of the movie. It was so
cute because you know it with Sonny, he's not a
big like he's a big talker. But when he's at school,
you know, I just text him every you know, every
day or once and just check in on him. But
he's always busy or he's just you know, I haven't
had a chance to really catch up with him. Like Natalia,
she'll call me a lot, like during the week, you know,
in between classes, but Sunny, it's I haven't heard from
him and like really talk to him. So it was
so nice getting caught. He looks so cute and I
can't wait to see him this weekend to go to
the Big Go Ducks.
Speaker 3: So you're flying in Friday morning, yeah, and getting there
like afternoon.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I get I get into like eleven eleven thirty,
Oh okay, and.
Speaker 1: Then you still have day with him and then go
to the football game, right and then are you there?
Speaker 2: And then the morning then Saturday morning, I leave, Yeah,
that's so quick. I know, because he's like, well, you know,
if you want to stay till Sunday, but I have
all these plans. There's a UFC fight and the football
and Sunday football all this stuff. I'm like, no, it's fine,
I'll just you know, come in do some laundry for you.
He's like, actually, I've been doing a lot of my laundry. Oh,
which is great. But you know, check out his place.
Probably do some cleaning. I'm sure it needs it, change
his sheets on his bed. But yeah, I'm excited. And
then tomorrow I was supposed to see Natalia last week
to go up there.
Speaker 1: We're going to go.
Speaker 2: We have some errands to run, and so I'm going
tomorrow now because last week she had her project that
she was working on. So now I'm driving up to
Santa Barbara to see her tomorrow. I haven't seen her
in a few weeks.
Speaker 1: That's so cute. I know, I'm excited. I miss my kids.
I know. Albie's been home home a couple of days ago.
She came home. Wait, today's Monday.
Speaker 3: She came home on Friday and we went and had
a late lunch and then she was home.
Speaker 1: She slept at home. Oh, she had her first gig
really with the company that she Yes, my news last
week that she got this gig with this company. Oh,
Elbie a little working girl.
Speaker 3: So she worked a show. I was so proud of her.
She's been working really hard. She like, Saturday morning, she
went to her job, her hostess. I was just going
to say, so she still has that still has that job.
She did not quit. And then Saturday night she went
and worked this gig. It was like a show with
a you know, a DJ with the electronica music.
Speaker 1: Kind of thing, kind of music we call it. Yeah though,
we just love it.
Speaker 3: Oh god, people screaming, and she said to videos like
I was.
Speaker 1: She did like not my kind of music. Yeah, last
place I'd rather be. And she did merch for the
She sold merch for the artist. Nice. Yeah, oh my god,
I'm like the opening act.
Speaker 3: Like so for the company, it's like event promoters, you know.
So for the company, she did the stuff that the
artist's team needed her to do.
Speaker 1: Nice. Yeah, she loved it. She love it. I get
totally se I can totally see her doing it. Yeah.
So did they pay her by the gig?
Speaker 3: So they said they were gonna reach out. I'm gonna
ask her right now.
Speaker 1: And was she nervous or was she like, I got this.
She was really nervous. It's like her big first job.
Speaker 2: Really, I mean she's had other jobs, but this is
like in the working world.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and for the first thing.
Speaker 3: And then it was really cute because she told me
that when she got there she met all the guys,
so she was really nervous. She texted, she made a
text when she got there. It was downtown, so she
had to go. She was like, mom, this is kind
of sketch, but I'm okay. Parked right across from the venue,
and then she was like, I'm so nervous to walk
in there.
Speaker 1: It's like her least favorite thing.
Speaker 3: But then she went in and then she was introduced
to everybody, and she was right away like felt comfortable.
And they told her They're like, just so you know,
like we never respond to dms like that is just
not a thing. We get hit up all the time.
They're like, but we just saw that you said you're
you're UCLA and we're all UCLA, so we were like,
well we got to meet this girl.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so yeah, that's great. I was like, good for you.
You got to continue using that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, she's only it's she's only going to be in
college for another Like.
Speaker 2: But I can't believe she's going to be graduate for months.
You're gonna have a UCLA graduate.
Speaker 1: I know. It's crazy, unbelievable. All these years and.
Speaker 2: Then all help you didn't even make freshman god knows where. Right,
she couldn't even make her own bagel. Now look at her.
Speaker 3: Well, she probably could have, but I handcapped her by
insisting on making her for her and putting cream cheese
on it. Of course, I feel like I found that
episode somewhere that we were because that was like bagel gate, Like.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, bagel gate.
Speaker 2: There's been two bagel gates, such a hot topic with
us back in the day.
Speaker 3: Bagels man, who knew bagels? Your kids weren't allowed to
have My kid ate them all too much.
Speaker 2: My kids are in the closet eating them with.
Speaker 1: A handful of almonds, yea, and a banana to eaven
it out, right, right?
Speaker 3: Meanwhile, my kid, I mean, if you think about all
of the things that people have accused us of, like
bad parenting, and you look back and you just go,
you know what, I'll take that, like if that's my
worst parenting is just not letting my kid make her
own bagel or not insisting.
Speaker 1: To make her own bagel, right right, all right me
for bad parents, I mean, I'm look at how they
turned out.
Speaker 2: Like Natalia is the most healthy eater in the world,
you know, yeah, drink sodas and stuff. She's you know,
Sonny of course is still a dude and eat hamburgers
and stuff.
Speaker 1: But you know, they they're fine, They're not, you know,
fucked up. So look at how they turned out.
Speaker 3: We did our best, and you make decisions the way
you would want to be parented, right, It's kind of
how I did it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I just.
Speaker 2: Didn't want to focus so much on restriction of food
and things like that. You know, I didn't grow up
that way. And I don't know, I.
Speaker 1: Call you crazy, but you didn't want to give your
kids eating disorders? What a psycho and a horrible mom? Right.
Speaker 3: You didn't want your kids to have to hide in
a closet to eat carbs, right, you know, when life
brings you that opportunity, and that's all you can.
Speaker 1: Do when life gives you bagels.
Speaker 3: I mean, their alternative was to be like, yeah, no bagels, Sonny,
you can't have bagels even though you're basically an athlete, right, yeah,
I remember.
Speaker 1: No, Like, yeah, the fuck of course we're gonna, I am.
We have to overrule stain things.
Speaker 3: Yes, did we buy our kids like lots of Christmas presents?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I guarantee you.
Speaker 3: The people in the audience listening that are like I
spoil your kids, the rest of you are all like, yeah,
guilty too, right, And now it's like Christmas comes and
it's like they get one gift and that's it.
Speaker 2: You know, they're they're not. I know I went overboard
at Christmas time. I'm definitely guilty of that. But that's
when we were little. It's Christmas, you know, and had
to make sure each one had the same amount of
gifts and you know, got everything they wanted whatever. But
now it's like, you know, they're like, yeah, get you know,
get me whatever, whatever, and they're fine. It's just sad that,
you know, with as much overthinking as I did around
the Christmas holiday, I still got it wrong.
Speaker 1: Like the time that I got in Sada the being
bag chair.
Speaker 3: The other kids wanted air pods, right right, but Xander
didn't care. Oh, I know what it was. You'll remember this.
So Elbie wanted like real air pods, and Sadie and
Xander had like those some knockoffs. I used to do
ads for those, yeah, which we were kind of doing
a wink wink because we all know that our kids
want the real, the actual brand, right, yeah, but whatever.
Speaker 1: So I had told.
Speaker 3: Sad I had I knew that Sadie had hinted that
she wanted actual air pods as well. So I got
them for Sadie. But I was like, well, Xander doesn't care.
Even though Xander, as we know as a brand whore
and has been from jump you know, seven years old.
He didn't want just a pullover. He wanted it to
have a Nike swoos shirt. He wanted it to have
a Puma thing. Yeah it was Leoprem pulled.
Speaker 2: Supreme Yeah, yes, Supreme shirts right right right.
Speaker 3: Xander liked that, but he didn't seem to care about
the air pods, so oh, I did not get them
for him, and I decided that I was going to
get him a bean bag chair. Remember that, I was
going to get him a navy like comfy he did.
He was big on like decorps for his room.
Speaker 1: And I knew that.
Speaker 3: I thought he's going to really like that, right, like, oh, like,
it's such a teenage boy, like he was young though
he was probably like maybe he was ten. Yeah, right,
But the wrong thing came. Everybody remembers this because I
took a picture of it and I posted it. So
you had to open it. When you opened it. It
was not a bean bag chair. It was some kind
of thing that kept expanding and expanding, so when you
cut off the plastic, it just like so he first
of all, it was the wrong color.
Speaker 1: So he opens it. It's you have to take it
out of the box. And it was orange?
Speaker 3: Right?
Speaker 1: Orange?
Speaker 2: Was this after his the the other kids opened their
airbus air cuds.
Speaker 3: Yes, so he thought his air pods were coming. Oh no,
he was banking on it.
Speaker 2: But he probably saw a big package. He probably got excited.
I was like, this is your big I think I
said I didn't get you AirPods.
Speaker 1: And he was like, oh, okay, you know, and then
I was like, this is you got And then it
was orange and then he opened it.
Speaker 3: It was like as big as our dining room table.
It was never It took up the whole room and
then he was trying. He's so sweet, he always tries
to be polite. But he was like, oh yeah, I
like it, you know. And then he started crying, remember yeah.
Speaker 1: And then I was like, what's going on, you know?
And he was like nothing.
Speaker 3: And then I was like, come in the other room
and talk to me. And then we went in there
and he was like trying so hard not to tell me,
oh the truth.
Speaker 1: But he was like I just I kind of thought
I was going to get like air.
Speaker 3: Pods and I was like, oh shit, is that what
it is? I was like, that can be rectified, like
right now, right I didn't know.
Speaker 1: I didn't know it was you.
Speaker 3: And he was like, well it's okay. And I was
like no, no, no, I will literally.
Speaker 1: Order them right now. They'll be here in two days.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Oh.
Speaker 2: I had something like that with Sonny and Natalias. I
just remember one year. I don't remember what Natalia got,
but Sonny's big gift was those hoverboards, remember those things?
And Sonny got that and Natalia was like, wait what
I thought I was getting that. I go but it's
Sonny's and Sonny was like, well you can play with it,
and she goes, but I want one, but you gout
then share and then.
Speaker 1: What ended up happening.
Speaker 2: She was sitting on it and sliced her finger and
had to go to the emergency room. Right, that was
like Emmy. The first night Jimmy was hosting the Emmys
and Adam was supposed to go, and then he ended
up driving her to the er because I can't handle
that was so gross, and sent an email and said
to Jimmy that can't make it and then immediately responds.
And then the next morning flowers came from right right,
which was sweet.
Speaker 1: But did she also heard her ankle or something on
it too? Wasn't there another?
Speaker 2: There was one time she had those Wheelies shoes and
we went on a walk with I took her Sonny
and Sonny's best friend and her, and we're walking through
our hilly neighborhood and she's going down these little hills
and I'm like.
Speaker 1: Be careful, be careful.
Speaker 2: And then there was a huge steep hill and she
said to me, she goes, can I go down this?
Speaker 1: Hell?
Speaker 2: I go no, no, no, And before I could even say no,
she just went for it and she bam ate it
big time, fell hit her on her, fell right on
her forehead.
Speaker 1: She said she saw white stars.
Speaker 2: She was like nine eight or nine, and Sonny and
Sonny and Jensen were like standing there, going what the
and she's screamed bloody murder. Where the neighbors came out
and they took her inside. And I can't remember. I
think I called, look, can you come pick us up?
She's hurt or something, and yeah, she was fucked up.
Speaker 1: Did you go to the doctor? Oh? Yeah, yeah I
took Oh.
Speaker 2: I remember I called doctor Bruce and he was He
said to me that the if you're going to hit
your head, the best is to hit it on your forehead. Okay,
So and he was like, is she concussed? All these things?
And then I think Adam's like, she's fine. I think
by the next day she was back to normal.
Speaker 1: So I don't know.
Speaker 2: I don't think I took her to the doctor. Actually
she was okay, but yeah, she hit it pretty hard.
Speaker 1: Heally's man, that's what they were called. Heally Heely's yeah,
those fucking shoes. Yeah. Oh. LB just wrote me back.
Speaker 3: Yeah and said, uh, she wrote lmfao, guys, that sounds
for laughing my fucking ass off. She said they literally
just emailed me asking to send an invoice for one
hundred and fifty dollars.
Speaker 2: Oh that's pretty great. That's great for an evening's work.
Speaker 3: She literally was a there for a couple of hours
selling merch, having a great time, and they let her
like in the middle, they were like, go watch the show,
go enjoy yourself.
Speaker 1: That's so great.
Speaker 2: She got there at eight and she left it like midnight. Oh,
that's that's great. Aren't that those shows go all night?
Speaker 1: No? No, it wasn't like that.
Speaker 3: It was like a It was like a single show,
like a concert, you know, and they don't actually concerts
don't go that bat. So she was there early, but
she said it was super chill and she was just
hanging out.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was like a fun evening for her.
Speaker 3: That's so great because once the merch was done, then
she was off like hanging out and they're like, do you.
Speaker 1: Want to drink or whatever? That's great. She was just
hanging and she said it was a super fun night.
So when's her next? Does she have a next gig
lined up? No, not just yet.
Speaker 3: But they were very she said they were super complimentary
and that the act, the team for the act, which
was called like Lioney or something. I've never heard of them,
but she'd heard of them. They were like, oh my god,
you sold so much merch.
Speaker 1: How did you? What's your secret? And it's so funny.
I'll tell you in a minute, but what she just
texted me.
Speaker 3: But anyway, they and she said, Oh, I think it's
because like I'm dancing and having a good time selling it, right,
But she said she was dancing because the where she
was was like part of the venue that she could hear.
Speaker 1: It and watch what gig for her? Right, Oh, I'm
so happy.
Speaker 3: And I said to her, like, this is because there,
it's not like that's not her job is just selling merch.
It's like they're trying to incorporate her and they're going
to show her a lot of different like stuff they need.
Speaker 1: And they said, yeah, we have stuff coming up. That's great.
Oh I'm so happy for her. Yeah.
Speaker 3: They were like, it was so great meeting you, and
we're definitely gonna like keep you working.
Speaker 2: She's going to be making bank with both jobs. Yeah.
Speaker 3: She definitely does not make that hostessing right, right, She
doesn't get tips hostessing, right, she does, but she makes
like it's the hourly is kind of low because she's
in Calabasas and the minimum wage is not even what
it is here. So she makes like sixteen dollars an hour,
and then her tip. She usually makes like thirty to
thirty five dollars a night in tips. That's oh, it's
not a ton it's not terrible. It's like over twenty
dollars pour averages.
Speaker 2: But it's not like, yeah, but this other gig is
good for her resume.
Speaker 1: Now you know she works for like a real company.
It's amazing. Yeah, it's awesome. I know. I'm happy for her. Oh,
just that.
Speaker 3: When she came home on Friday, we had fun because
we went for lunch. We went to Chili's and.
Speaker 1: It was just fun. It's just fun to hang out
and kids when they're adult, it's so fun. I love it.
Speaker 2: I can't wait to see in Italian tomorrow. She's like,
you want to go get a manny petty.
Speaker 1: After our stuff?
Speaker 2: I was like sure, yeah, so yeah, it's I'm excited.
I'll tell you about that.
Speaker 1: All right.
Speaker 2: Well, let's talk about Quint's. You know, it's so funny.
Somebody complimented me on my Quint's pants. Oh, a guy,
and I was like, Oh, go to Quints and now
he went used the promo code and bought himself a
pair of like jogger pants. Oh loves it and got
a cashmere sweater. Yeah, I love it.

Speaker 3: Okay, So this is something that just happened to me
that was very annoying it. Yeah, So I'm driving my
still new ID four and I wonder if this has
ever happened with your car. Probably not, because I think
this is an ID four thing. But the screen went out.
It's happened to me with the Teslas before.
Speaker 2: Oh really, And there's a way you can go on
like YouTube to reset it.
Speaker 1: So okay, so the screen went out.
Speaker 3: It So this is the thing that happens kind of
frequently with the car where when you're driving it, it
goes out and then it reboots like a couple minutes later.
Speaker 1: Phone.
Speaker 3: Yes, except that it just goes out. It just flashes out.
Everything dies except for the electric stuff on the car
doesn't die. The car doesn't die. Just the screen goes
to pot which is where your car play is and
all your stuff. So it goes blank and then it
comes back on. But this time it was it just
didn't come back on.
Speaker 1: So I was like, well, that's weird.
Speaker 3: So I tried to do a reset where you hold
the power button and then so I told John and
then John was like, okay, it says you have to
hold it for like.
Speaker 1: Actually I was with LB.
Speaker 3: It was the day we went to Chili's and she said, Okay,
you have to hold it for like two minutes or
for a minute. And then some girl like on a
reddit was like, no, you got to hold it for anyway.
I tried everything. It would not come back on. Really,
we pulled over. I held it for two full minutes.
Speaker 1: Nothing. Oh boy.
Speaker 3: Then I tried again and it reset. It's hard to explain.
I don't know if your car has this. On electric cars,
there's a little window that's over the steering wheel. It's
not part of the big screen, but when you when
it reboots, it does something in that little window too. Okay,
so it makes like a thing and you can see
that it's like rebooted. Nothing on the screen, totally dead.
So I call VW and I'm like, hey, I have
like basically a brand new car, it's like seven weeks
old and the screen is dead. And the guy goes, well, yeah,
it just needs to be reset. He goes, did you
try to reset it? And I go yeah, yeah I did,
and he goes, Okay, you just have to hold it down,
and I was like, no, I already I definitely tried that.
And he's like, well, I mean you want to bring
it by and I'll I'll get it back up for you.
Speaker 1: And I was like, okay.
Speaker 3: So I I drive out to Woodland Hills to the dealership. Oh,
he goes, Yeah, Okay, my name's Rob. I'm like, okay, Rob,
all right, I'll be right in. So I go in.
I pirk the car like right outside the door of
the service the service door.
Speaker 1: I go in.
Speaker 3: I'm like, Hi, I'm Stephanie. I was the one who
called you the screens out. He goes, all right, So
he comes out. He goes, I swear to God in
the most condescending manner.
Speaker 1: He goes.
Speaker 3: He might as well have said, okay, little lady. Like
he goes, all right, let's get this. Uh, let's get
this back.
Speaker 1: Up for you. I did you hate that?
Speaker 3: I was like, okay, uh, I'm sure you'll be able
to do it right away, even though I couldn't.
Speaker 1: But like I guess, because I don't know. Sometimes I
don't know if this happens to you.
Speaker 2: But sometimes it's like like there's a hot water issue
in my bathroom, and sometimes it gets hot, and then
sometimes it just never gets hot. And like the one
of the handymen was over a couple of weeks ago,
and I told him that, and then he turns it
on and it's like, of course it gets hot. And
then he's like, well, you gotta let it run for
a while.
Speaker 1: Oh really, douchebag. Oh is that what I needed?
Speaker 2: Because I just turn it on real quick and it
doesn't get at and I turned it right back off
and I just get fresh.
Speaker 1: But what the fuck? Like, Okay, I hate when there's
half that happens a lot.
Speaker 3: Yeah, right, yeah, And this was it was just so
insulting the way he said, like, yeah, let's get that.
Let's get this up and running for you. Yeah, like okay, yeah,
I can't wait for that. So also in my mind though, too,
I'm like, I probably shouldn't be happening.
Speaker 1: Though in general, I should have.
Speaker 3: To bring it into the dealership for them to bring
it back up for me. It is a new car, right, okay,
but whatever, I'm like, sure, sure, let him get it
up and then I'll take that up. So he gets
in the car and the windows roll down, and I'm
so I'm standing there and he's trying. Obviously nothing's happening.
I can see the screen of the car. It's still black.
So I go and I kind of dramatically sit on
the curb. There's like a curb on the other side
of the car, and I just sit there for a minute.
Speaker 1: Uh huh.
Speaker 3: And then like a couple of minutes later, it gets
out of the car. He's like, yeah, I'm just gonna
run it back to.
Speaker 1: The I'm like, oh, are you alright? You do that? Rob?
Speaker 3: And he goes, you could just go have a seat
and like the service department.
Speaker 1: I go, okay, I'll do that, uh huh.
Speaker 3: Literally, like thirty minutes later, the guy comes in with
the keys and the guy and then not Rob, but
because he's not an actual car service guy, he just
runs the you know, he's just Rob.
Speaker 1: He's front facing. Yeah, he's just right. God, his name
isn't Paul. Okay. Yeah.
Speaker 3: So the guy comes in who's fixed it apparently with
the keys, and Rob goes, all right, it's all it's
all fine now, Okay, obviously it's not fucking fine.
Speaker 1: M he had to take it. What part of what
how are you gonna tell me?
Speaker 3: Are you just gonna be like, here's your keys, go
be on your way after it just took you a
fucking half hour to get my car working again. It's
a brand new car. So now I'm pissed because I'm like,
does he think I'm stupid? Like I'm just gonna go, oh,
thank you, yeah bye, hope it never happens again.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And so I so I say, okay, thanks Rob.
I go, but.
Speaker 3: Is that like that's that shouldn't be happening right like?
And he goes, well, you know what happens. And I
was like, okay, But as I said on the phone,
I go, almost every time I drive it does go out.
I go, but this time it went out and like
did not come back up. And I go, how do
I know it's not going to happen again? And he goes,
what I swear to you? Annetti goes, well, I mean,
I guess you don't if I mean. He goes, do
you want to bring it in so we can like
diagnose it? And I said, yeah, I go, but it's
not normal, right, It's not normal brand new car. Spoiler alert,
it's not normal, and we're not bringing it to him,
but I'll tell you what happened afterwards. But so he goes, well,
you know a lot of times it's not really the car.
It's the fact that the interface when you're trying to
use the car play like they don't necessarily play well together.
Speaker 1: You know, the Apple Okay, I go, I go, uh,
but like most people have Apple, right, Like that's mostly
people have iPhones and he goes, not everybody, Oh my god,
this guy.
Speaker 3: I go, oh, so you're saying that you think the
car does better for people who have an Android phone, right,
But like it's not meant for iPhones.
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know.
Speaker 3: I swear to god, I was not trying to like
have a fight with him, but I was like, let me,
I'm just trying to understand is that you're so you're
saying it's more like user error, it's not the like
the car. And he goes, I don't know what it is.
I'm just telling you that a lot of times when
they go to diagnose that, they find out it's just
that it's not really compatible with your phone. And I
was like, I would think that would be a known thing,
like if you're going to get an ID four don't
have an iPhone, that it.
Speaker 1: Might not work that well. I was really like kind.
Speaker 3: Of incredulous, and he goes, I don't know, I'd have
to diagnose, so we'd have to diagnose it so you
can bring it in on Monday. And I was like, well,
Monday's not good, but you can bring it in on Tuesday.
But we can't fix it on Tuesday. We'll just diagnose
it and then we'll have to make a plan to
fix it if if we find out there's a.
Speaker 1: Probing pain in the ass. I'm like okay.
Speaker 3: So then I come home and I tell John that story,
the whole little lady of it all, and then John's like,
I don't like that dealership anyway.
Speaker 1: They've been they're just rude.
Speaker 3: So he called our other dealership, which is Gaalpin in Northridge,
and they were like, oh my god, this is a
very known problem.
Speaker 1: We're so sorry.
Speaker 3: Yes, there's been recalls on it like it's a thing.
Oh no, and it should not. It absolutely shouldn't be
doing that. And sometimes it needs a software update and
if it and sometimes that doesn't fix it and we'll
have to do something else. But so we're bringing it there. Wow,
what a fucking pain in the ass.
Speaker 1: It is a pain.
Speaker 2: I would be so fucking pissed if I'd bring my
car in twice or maybe even three times to get
it's brand new.
Speaker 1: I know. And you're punished because you have an iPhone, like, well, yeah,
Rob's World, Rob's World, gez not our fault.
Speaker 2: I do like Gallpin Ford. I've always had good experiences
with them. Yeah, Galpin is good.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we have had good experiences with them too. They're
also bigger, so I don't know, but I just like
the fact that they didn't try to gaslight us, right,
that's that's.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, oh these these cars.
Speaker 3: No, you can't have an iPhone if you're gonna have
an IP fore no iPhone.
Speaker 1: But I isn't both the names of the product, right, Wow,
it's not called an android before. Yes, stupid little lady,
little boy. Oh it's like you know.
Speaker 3: If John had gone in there with the car, they
would not have They would have been like, oh yeah,
that shouldn't be happening.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I think that I'm just going.
Speaker 2: To go like, okay, right, bye, bye, thanks, I'll be
on my way.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, that's bad. That's not good. You should tell
Alan Adam Lerner. Oh I did. I texted him. I
was like, hey, my car's fucked up.
Speaker 3: I think I got a lemon and he was like,
you can bring it into any dealership at any time.
Speaker 1: Just roll up and be like bitch, my car's not working.
They fix it. Yeah, they have to, it's new.
Speaker 3: I was like, really anyone, that's a powerful feeling, right right.
Speaker 1: But they are.
Speaker 3: Different to you. It is different when you have a
new car. Yeah, because they're like, oh yeah, bring it
in to fix it. Yeah, they'll see you as soon
as possible. Right. Oh that's I remember when I so
my first car. Well, my first car was a was
my yellow Massage LC that was already had ninety thousand
miles on it when I bought it. Yeah, which doesn't
sound as bad as I think for a first car,
except that it had been used primarily in the snow.
Speaker 1: So you remember I told you how it was rusted.
Speaker 3: The floorboards rusted through, so you could just put your
foot down and touch the ground if you wanted to,
which I did not want to. Also, it wouldn't go
like above forty on the freeway. It was not a
great car. Then I won the Buick Skyhawk on Hollywood Squares.
Problem solved, except that you might recall me telling you
it did not. I couldn't afford to have AC put
in it right in California. Yeah, well, listen, I had
no money. I got like I won like one thousand dollars,
but I needed that to like make sure that my
car didn't get repossessed like I was, you know, I
was underwater. H I was not so that they were like, you,
they give you a car and it's a base model,
so you get the car. It has AMFM radio, cloth seats, walk,
crank windows, yeah all that. Yeah, now it was I
was twenty one, so it would have been like nineteen
eighty nine, yeah, right, eighty eight yeah, I mean around
the time I got my first car too.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, So I was just happy to have a
new car.
Speaker 3: I didn't care. I was like, you know, how much
air conditioning was going to be? Two thousand dollars, that's
if I want to AC Yeah, so I was like,
are you high?
Speaker 1: What am I?
Speaker 3: I would have gone on Hollywood Squares if I had
two thousand dollars, I would have been like, I'm rich.
Speaker 1: I would have bought a house seriously, right right, I
want a game show. Yeah, I don't have two thousand dollars. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Also, as you recall, because I've told this story many times,
the car, the trip to Jamaica I won, and the
thousand dollars were taxable, but I just did not pay
taxes on it. That's rights again with what with what money?
How am I paying taxes? Barely could afford a insurance
on a brand new car. Gift taxes like insane, it's
like seventeen percent.
Speaker 1: Wow. Yeah, So I ended up getting a lean on
my like it was right. I was very Yeah. I
my first car.
Speaker 2: I remember I did that TV show Game of Game
of no what was it called Gang of Four. I
played the drummer in a band and I got like
a check for four thousand dollars and I was.
Speaker 3: Like, holy fuck, I was fucking rolling. I was like,
I'm going to go get a car.
Speaker 2: And I bought a car for like thirty five hundred
dollars and it was a Mercury Capri. It was like
a ripoff of the Mustang. Back in the day, Suzanne
had the yellow Mustang that model. I mean, like if
you look up, it was horrible looking. But got it
was like had I don't know, one hundred and fifty
thousand miles, like it was used. And then but when
I bought it, the back window side window was cracked,
and then like, you're gonna have to get that fixed.
Speaker 1: And I was like, well, how much is to get
it fixed?
Speaker 3: This five hundred, it's kind of a lot it back then,
back then for a car that had one hundred and
fifty thousand miles.
Speaker 1: It was. It was a used car. It has been
a nice It was nice and like a car that
everybody wanted back then.
Speaker 2: Yes, like, yeah, it was very popular that model, right,
So then and then because Suzanne had one and I
wanted one too, of course, So then the cracked window.
I couldn't afford to get that fixed, and then all
of a sudden, like I don't know, six months later,
it starts really cracking, and then before you.
Speaker 1: Know it, I had no window. So I had to
drive that car around with no window.
Speaker 3: So relatable though, when I was working at a preschool, Yeah,
making no money.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was just awful those days.
Speaker 3: Did I ever tell you about how I had no
We have talked about this because we both had this
happen because I had gotten like a traffic ticket.
Speaker 1: I couldn't afford to pay it, right, so I was
just driving around with the warrants.
Speaker 3: Yeah, me too. And then you get the letter in
the mail that you have a warrant. You're like, what,
there's a warrant. The police are after me.
Speaker 1: That happened. I didn't know what he told me. I
had to you know that you had.
Speaker 2: I didn't even know if I even saw the ticket
come in the mail or what or it said something
like do date in three.
Speaker 1: Months from now.
Speaker 2: So I was like, oh, okay, three months from now
turned into eight months from now, and now you got
a warrant out.
Speaker 3: Yeah. I Also it's like they send you the thing
that's for your traffic ticket, and it's like four hundred
dollars even back then, and I was like, what, Like,
I live in a house.
Speaker 1: Made of gold, what do you trump?
Speaker 3: Like? Where are my That was always my attitude, very
so righteous. Where do you think I'm going to get
four hundred dollars? Right? People I come after me, I
guess I'm just not going to be able to drive then,
but I have to drive because how to.
Speaker 1: I'm going to get to work? Yeah. So I was like, well, ohow,
I guess I'm a fugitive from the law. Exactly. You
let the chip fall. That is how I felt like
nobody would help me, and police are on the on
the lookout. Putting a bowlo out for Stephanie.
Speaker 3: I had this friend though, Uh, this guy who was
a comedian. His name's Greg Otto. We dated for a while,
but then we were just friends. He was very commitment phobic.
Speaker 1: But I had such a huge day all back then.
Speaker 3: Yes, oh my god, Okay, this is a story that
I told on board AF many years ago.
Speaker 1: But but it's kind of crazy. So I'm dating him.
I like him so much.
Speaker 3: I have that like like he likes me too. But
there was just something a little off about him. Yeah,
like he just wasn't didn't seem quite as into me
as I was into him. Oh yeah, I've had that.
He was he was already a very very much a
working comedian and uh, I mean he was. He was
very advanced, and I was kind of more of an
open micer. But he was really fucking funny. Anyway, one day,
like he would call me sometimes, but it would also
be late at night. But we were danged.
Speaker 1: But it was very much I'm not sure what this
is kept you at arms length, that's a little bit. Yeah.
Speaker 3: One day I get back to my apartment and his
car is parked in front of my apartment building, and
I was like, oh my god, he's here. It has
surprised me right, Well, not so fast, because it turns
out that this his ex girlfriend, who turned out to
still be kind of his current girlfriend, lived across the
street from me.
Speaker 1: He had neglected to tell me, Oh my god, are
you kidding?
Speaker 3: And I don't know why he would think it was
a good idea to park like where I would see
his car, right, I don't.
Speaker 1: Know what he was thinking, what the fuck?
Speaker 3: But yeah, he was cheating on me with his other girlfriend,
who I guess they weren't really fully exes.
Speaker 1: He'd always been kind of in love with her right then.
Speaker 3: But you know what, he ended up marrying this woman
around the same time as I met John, he met
his who is still his wife. She is so smart
and lovely and hilarious, super fucking smart and much much
more like on his level. Yeah, they're both kind of intellectuals.
Speaker 1: They both read a ton, you know.
Speaker 3: And I'm so happy for him, and he's still very
happy and he's a magician.
Speaker 1: But anyway, back then.
Speaker 3: We ended up just being really good friends, like really
really good friends. Never like made out again or whatever.
But he was thought it was so ridiculous. He had
a lot of money. It made like money in the
stock market, a little bit. Anyway, he felt sad for me.
He was like, this is so because I think I
told him I had a warrant out for my arrest.
He was like, oh my god, how much do you
need to like pay it off? And I was like, well,
it's this whatever. It was like, it wasn't even that much.
I think it was like so I said four hundred,
but the truth is it was literally like two hundred
and fifty dollars.
Speaker 1: It was like, yeah, two's right, yeah, but I'll never
forget that. He said, like, I'll just pay it. Oh
that's so sweet. I love that. And then I would
offer to pay him back and he'd be like.
Speaker 3: With what, yes, exactly, Like I could pay it like
thirty five bucks a week.
Speaker 1: He'd be like, please, please don't.
Speaker 2: That's so funny. I remember I when I was working
at this syndic television syndic. It was my first job
in the real world at television syndication company was Genesis
and then went to New World. The CEO, Gary Ganaway,
who was super rich and he lived on both coasts,
came into the office on like the couple days before
Christmas and brought every like one by one.
Speaker 1: The employees.
Speaker 2: There's like twelve of us at the company into his
office and like I remember, my girlfriend Kimberly went in.
She came out, she had tea, and I was like,
what the fuck is going on? And they were just like,
don't worry, you know, it's fine, but just let him
talk to you. So I walked in, sat down and
he's like, so Lynette Paradise. Then he goes, what's your
what's your monthly nut or something like that, and I
go monthly nut? What He was like, you have a
credit card? Yeah, what what do you owe on the
credit card? I was like I don't know, like eight
hundred dollars or something. And then he's like, you got.
Speaker 1: Car payment whatever.
Speaker 2: He wrote a check for like a couple of car
payments and paid off my credit card. Like that's what
he was doing, was just giving everybody money to pay
off their credit cards and things like that.
Speaker 1: I know, I know it was I was like, wow,
if this is.
Speaker 2: What television is, Like I never had this at the preschool,
Like this is awesome. I know, yeah really yeah it
was great. So yeah, it's really sweet when people do that.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Well, when I got my first job in TV, so
the I driven the Buick Skyhawk into the ground. I
mean with the Masa GLC. I told you, I just
it had so many parking tickets attached to it that
I was always scared I.
Speaker 1: Was going to get a boot on it. So I
just left that.
Speaker 3: It was worth nothing. It was anti where you know
it was. It would have cost me money, so I
just left it and then they towed it away.
Speaker 1: I was like, okay, problem.
Speaker 3: So I had a Buick Skyhawk now with no AC
and AMFM radio, not even a tape deck, like remember
the cassette that would have also cost me.
Speaker 1: I think that was going to be like an eight
hundred dollars and then like two thousand for the I
was like, oh no, I'll just take it as is.
Just give it to me, and they did. It didn't
I didn't have to pay for taxes and registration, so
that was the what I also felt rich. I was
like free car.
Speaker 3: So I drove that for like eight years and it
ended up being like you know, it just wasn't working
that well towards the end end. And then I got
the job in TV and I was like making money
and I was like, oh, I'm going to buy my
first like car, yeah, all by myself. I go down
to El Cerrito, yes Ello, where there's like all these
deals shorn. And I've also told you this story before too,
so I won't tell you the whole thing of me
thinking I'm badass and going I'll just walk off the
lot and they're like, bye. They sold me this beautiful
red Toyota Celica that was only had like fifty thousand
miles on it. I mean I thought I was like
getting one over on them. I'm like, this is crazy.
This car looks brand new, you know, because they detailed it, yes,
of course, which cost them like thirty bucks, you know,
and then they did I got the worst deal. I
mean it cost me so I was paying like twenty
two percent interest or something, you know, like something crazy.
But I felt so happy. But the part but I
know I've told that part of the story before. But
there was something wrong with the car. So this is
just where I'm reminded of the ID four. I go
to drive at home and it starts smoking from the engine.
Oh like smoke, right, And I'm like, but it's like
it's not like black smoke. It's like a gray It's
like a steamy smoke, but it's bad. I open the trunk,
you know, and it's like, there's smoke. So I bring
it back the next day. I'm like the cars because
it's under like a guarantee.
Speaker 1: But only for like a month, right, you know, I
think you have like literally like thirty three days. And
I didn't know about the lemon law right at the time.
I have that.
Speaker 3: Yes, I think they had a lemon law, which later
I found out I could have made them take the
car back. Yeah, But also I really liked the car already.
I was already attached to it. So I take it in,
I take it back to the place, and they tell me, okay,
sorry about that, Like we found the problem, we fixed it.
Speaker 1: Oh no, it's still it continued to do it.
Speaker 3: I had to continue to bring it back to the place,
and then I can't remember if it stopped for a while.
But at the same time, there was also this crazy
noise that would happen when you put the brakes. When
you hit the brakes, yes, it would sound like metal.
Speaker 1: I know that sound, right, Yes, it would just go.
Speaker 3: Same and it was so embarrassing, and anytime anyone would
be in the car, they'd be like, oh, my god,
that's pull up and people look at you, yes, because
it's so loud.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so crazy. So of course I bring it in.
I bring it back to the place.
Speaker 3: It's still like within it's doing all these things within
the time I bring it in there, Like uh, I
can't even remember because it was so long ago. It's
in my late twenties. But they say they fixed it.
It didn't do it for like a few days, and
then it was out of their warranty and it started
doing it again. I brought it to like five different
mechanics and they would all be like, don't know what
it is. Oh, it wasn't the breaks. You'd think, oh,
maybe the brake pads were down of the metal.
Speaker 1: No, it wasn't that.
Speaker 3: And I finally found this mechanic in Santa Monica, who
figured it out in like one day.
Speaker 1: And he was like, oh, it's this, and it cost
me a lot of money.
Speaker 3: It was a crack. There was some crack in something.
It was like releasing like pressure. It was deep in
the vehicle or whatever. But it was such an obvious problem.
It was a crazy sound it would make. Yeah, And
so he fixed it, and then I happily drove.
Speaker 1: That car for years. So I met John Wow wow Yeah. Yeah.
I got the.
Speaker 3: God Mazda what's it called. It had Tea tops. So
after the white.
Speaker 1: Let's the Capri.
Speaker 2: I turned that in because then I started making a
little more money. And then I went by myself and
I bought this like Mazdah God, I can't anyway it was,
but they I loved the car because I love the
t tops. I was like, okay, I want that car.
It was used and they're like, okay, but it's a
stick shift, you know, drive stick And I was like no,
but I'll learn. How hard can it be? And then
I think my friend, I think Mike or Glenn taught me.
But I still was not driving it correctly, and I
drove the brakes that sound.
Speaker 1: Eventually probably wore the gears.
Speaker 2: I wore the gears down because I remember being on
Supulvida was this It's a huge incline and I was
just like like just grinding the gears.
Speaker 1: I never was right.
Speaker 2: I never could get the actual shift correct. I mean
I think I drove it for like four or five
years after that.
Speaker 1: Yeah. That was always kind of my thing, was like
I'll drive it out ground.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it just you know, it'll lasts as long as
it last, as long as it gets me from A
to B.
Speaker 1: What you know, I'd be like car maintenance, who's got
money for that? Ye? Like, I'll just drive it until
it's not working right.
Speaker 2: And now luckily I guy friends are like Lena, you
got to check the oil, like they change my oil,
put air in my tires.
Speaker 1: And I learned how to do it. And then it
was just you know, just fake it till you make it. Yes,
I think my the next car I got what I
was finally like adulting better, and I bought a black
Volvo Sedan from a gay couple in from Palm Springs
that wanted to get out of their lease. So it
was still like it was still fully under warranty, and
I like took over their lease and that was a
great car. Gave me no problem right right until until
we sold that.
Speaker 3: Because that's when John and I like leased our first
car cars together somehow, right right, I think we had
to get a mini van. Yeah games no soweet so
we John had an Accura like a green like grandpa
ish Accura left to his own devices. John is such
a grandpa, right, Yeah, very east coast. No, not like
money wasp, just like sensible. Yes, he's very sensible. Yeah,
he does his due diligence, researches everything. Yeah yeah, I
mean I met him right after he bought that car.
Apparently he had a real like a Honda Prelude that
was just totally trashed. Yeah, so that was his big purchase.
And oh yeah, I think it took him like six
months to like research everything and make deals that then
fell through because he was waiting.
Speaker 1: Too long, you know what I mean.
Speaker 3: Like it's not always like you see in the movies.
Sometimes people get annoyed and they're just like, yeah, no,
the car's gone. You're like, oh, I thought I was
playing hardball. Yeah I'm gonna I'm gonna get him down
in the price, like no, no, somebody bought it.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I went by my self a lot to go buy cars.
Well were we thinking, I don't know, I don't know.
Speaker 3: We thought we were so like tall, like strong, like
no one's going to get anything over to me, right,
And then my dad was like, you should get a
Saturn eventually, and I was like a Saturn okay.
Speaker 1: And then that's when I was where I think I
was working.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was working in television and I was like, okay,
I can afford a little something traded that Mazda in
and then got like a new Saturn.
Speaker 1: I was like, wow, I don't even remember how much
it cost, but I loved it. Loved it.
Speaker 3: Well, their whole thing because they're not around anymore. Yeah,
clearly was that they don't do any haggling, so the
price is as low as it's like, Okay, the car's
eight thousand dollars, there's no negotiation, right, But my dad
probably did the research and was like, that's like your budget.
Speaker 2: Go check out Saturn. Think I got it at glpin
Ford too, Wow, yeah, yeah, oh my god.
Speaker 3: The first I mean I didn't have my first new
car I think until John, right until I was married.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and like we got we leased our first lease.
I think was the first time I ever had a
brand new.
Speaker 3: Car really like in my love although I think my
parents had one new car ever other.
Speaker 2: Than that we it was used, I mean it was used.
My mom drove a green olive green drab Nova. Oh,
such a seventies car, no seatbelts in the back.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: My parents drove renaults, which we called renaults. Oh, yeah,
but those French cars, I cannot tell you, and there
was a model of it that everybody would recognize if
you who was around in the seventies. I cannot tell
you how many times we were parked on the side
of a road like with car trouble.
Speaker 1: Right. Those things were pieces of shit and we kept
buying new ones. Not new ones, but another this one.

on the side of the freeway.

waiting for help, right. I was just like, I never
want that to be me. Yeah, speaking to my mom.
Have you seen the Britney Spears driving drunk driving videos?

Speaker 1: I thought about that.
Speaker 2: Because my mom my dad used to make fun of
my mom's driving because he would say she straddles the lane,
is what? Because my mom would just drive all of
the whoop, now, just driving all over the place, all
the windows down, whoop, let your love flu lack a
burn on a wing and she'd just be all over
the place and like, you scare the fuck out of
me when you drive. So I was watching those Britney
Spears videos like she drives like my mom?

like in the center lane.

be responsible for her.

They're going to come after me now and try and
cancel me. It's my opinion. I mean, she need Maybe
it's not her dad is not the one to do it,
but like somebody needs to do it. Yeah.
Speaker 2: I don't know why her mom doesn't. I don't know,
but somebody, it's not good. She could have fucking I
was I couldn't believe it. That video, it goes on
and on too. It's like, Wow, she was fucked up.
