It was super fun. Yeah, until I fell off, until
I just dropped out. Well, because you were in your
backyard and you hadn't charged your phone or your or
you dated your laptop.
Speaker 2: My laptop needed updating, and it was like the battery
is like doesn't hold very long. So I charged my
phone up before the zoom, and I wanted to be
in the backyard because I don't want the kids to
hear what we were talking about because I spilled some tea,
so I had I went and like, oh, I'll charge it.
I've done zoom on my phone before, I'll sit outside.
And then I mean, lo and behold, it's like five
percent left. I went and got with you guys, got
the charger, went outside, plugged it in outside, thinking it
was charging. And then right at the very end, when
Julie's like, we wish you nothing but the best Linette.

Sopranos for me. But it was fun. We had fun.
The end of the soprano. Like the music came on,

like next thing, you know, we're having a good time
next to you know, static black yeah, gone, yeah. Well
nobody knows if I got I was. I think we
were wrapping it up right at that point. We were
literally on there for like another thirty seconds and then
we said yes, we said goodbye. Yeah. Yeah, but it
was it was really fun. Thank you to everybody who
yeah you guys, thank you who's on that level. There
are like thirty five people on there. I want to say, wow, yeah,
that's we gotta do it. We gotta do it once
a month. It was fun once a month, I think
for sure, because just make it a regular fun thing.
Speaking of like our kind of group fun things. Guess what,
So Patrick's having a party yet, which you probably know about. Yeah,
and I got invited. Yeah, and then I was like, hey,
we'll get well, Okay, long story short, Xander's band is
going to play. Oh my god, are you kidding? You're
not kidding? Oh my god. I cannot wait. They're called Guyliner.
I can't wait. Patrick said they could play. They're going
to do three songs after the Oh, there's an opening band.
Then they're going to play then, Chris gonna. I love that.
I can't wait. They're so excited, so he asked his friends.
I mean, they're like, they're like a real band. They're
doing some gigs this summer. But that's why I thought
of it. I was like, he's like, there's gonna be
like a music festival. So I was like, do you
need another band? You bought my uh ah, that's awesome,
and he was like, hell, yeah, yeah that's great, that's
so great. Not cute.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's really cute. Yeah, I'm coming. I'm coming with Suzanne.
Speaker 1: Oh good. I got invited to the.
Speaker 2: Dodger game that night, but I don't know if I'm
gonna go or not, because I want to have fun
at the party, Like I look, this is this is
gonna be fun, Like I look forward to seeing everybody.
Speaker 1: I mean, let's let's be real for a second. Dodger
games are pretty boring, totally boring.
Speaker 2: Ice cue it's ice cube, bobblehead ice Oh is it?
Speaker 1: Yes? And my friend knows how much I love ice Cube.
Oh well, I don't know. But they're endless. The games
are any they are endless and people start trickling out. Yes, yeah,
I mean maybe it's a listen. I don't this. This
is probably like heresy to people who are huge Dodger
I know, and I am a Dodger fan from way back. Yeah,
I get it. But the act, but the act of
actually being there, it's never as fun as you think
it's going to be. Get all psyched up. We're good
baseball game, you know, and you get there what you know,
a Dodger dog right, yeah, too early, right right? Then
you're full and you're still like in the bottom of.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and then you're like, okay, maybe we should leave
little early.
Speaker 1: So we missed the traffic. You want to get stuck
in that traffic. But the games are like four hours.
Speaker 2: I know, I know, but it's like seven o'clock at
night the game. But this his party is from four
to seven. Sound checks at three okay for my kids. Okay, yeah,
I'm gonna be here. I can't wait. I can't wait.
Speaker 1: Isn't that funny?
Speaker 2: Suzanne's excited too, Yeah, oh goody, she's coming.
Speaker 1: I don't think i've seen Suzanne since your house in
hall Would when you lived in the hallway the lake,
you mean the late Lacananda house. No, not that house,
or unless I saw her at that house once, but no,
remember I met her at your your first house. Uh
huh in like close by by the reservoir. Yeah, yeah
you're there. You met her there. Wow.
Speaker 2: Yeah, she's still the same, but she likes Patrick, and
she like, she's like, you know, she's like, and He's like,
invite Suzanne and her boyfriend.
Speaker 1: She says, we never do anything. We don't ever go anywhere.
All we do is work. And and I was like,
come to Patrick's. Yeah, it's like it's going to be
big for me, a lot of people. It's interesting because
his yard isn't huge. I have a big part.
Speaker 2: It's a lot of kids too. He did it last year.
Is that you didn't come last year?
Speaker 1: I didn't come last year, but I came to another
one not that long right.
Speaker 2: Remember he does one every summer, like a summer get together.
Speaker 1: Well I came to one, yeah, and I remember Robin
remember yeah, oh yeah, and Robin and her husband did karaoke. Yes,
it was a karaoke party. Was that the summer party?
I think so? Yeah.
Speaker 2: He does one every year, but this he's last year.
He started with the bands. So this is this year two?
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, okay, but I feel like I was anyway.
It doesn't really matter. Okay, let me tell you about
this this uh thing I went to. Okay, so Robin.
It was for the ed Asner Foundation he does. Uh,
there's a fundraiser every year. It's a poker tournament for autism.
Speaker 2: That's such a great idea to do a poker tournament.
And where was it at.
Speaker 1: It was at the Mary Tyler Moore, the MTM lot
okay on Radford. So they did it. It was really cool.
They it was all outdoors, but it was like beautiful weather.
So you you get taken to this area of the studio,
you park, and then they take you in a little
tram you know what I mean a golf cart, right,
not a tram, And then it's this whole like corridor
of that looks like a movie set, Okay, like an
outdoor like with all storefronts. Yeah, all the poker tables
set up. That's cool. So walk in first person, I
see and then I text you right away. Is Mark
Wahlberg our friend? Mark Wahlberg? Yes, yes, not Marky Mark Wright? Right.
He's so sweet, isn't he's such a nice weeatest. Yeah,
so apparently this is like okay. So I was like,
you know what, I'm gonna buy a ticket for this.
I'm gonna play poker. I love poker. I'm a pretty
good poker player. Ye mind. Yeah, I found out very
quickly that I'm not a good poker player. Well I'm not.
I was spoiler alert. I was seated at a table
with the most aggressive guys that play poker with the
each other all the time. And it wasn't that I
was so intimidated. It was just like this is not fun,
Like you're not letting anybody see a hand, like they're
just okay, here's the problem too. So I get there
and Robin referred me. So Robin gets extra poker chips.
So I was all excited to get my bonus poker chips.
You get two thousand automatically, then if somebody if you're referred,
you get an extra thousand. Okay, except that they tried
to argue that Robin should be the one who gets
the extra thousand chips, except for I was like, yeah,
but she's not playing. They're like, yeah, so she doesn't
get any So I was fuck, Well that seems unfair
because I have like an email saying that I'm supposed
to get them, and they're like, well, that's saying that
the player is going to get and I was like
all right, and then they're like, oh, we'll just give
them to you. Okay, should we go through all that? Jesus?
Speaker 2: So what did Robin do when when everybody's playing, Oh.
Speaker 1: So she he has so Robin's son has autism. As
she's been on the show and talked about the whole thing.
So she's been a part of this foundation. She's really
good friends with the woman who is throwing it. So
she just went she wasn't going to play poker, but
she just went to like hang out. Yeah, okay, okay.
So we get there and it's they're supposed to be
like celebrities. But I put that in quotes because it's
not like attracting big celebrities, but you know, it's just
people who have something to do with a lot of
people's kids have autism. Yeah, so they're very involved in
this organization. This organization, by the way, the ed Asner Foundation,
does a lot for people with autism. By the way,
if you ever want to look it up, they run
this help center. This really helps like adults kids with
autism and has all these programs for the kids. They
do great art and they do I've been to I've
been to fundraisers there. It's like really cool, get all
the stuff they ca Yeah. But anyway, so I get there,
I see Mark and then we're laughing because he's going
to go walk. So I'm like, Mark Wahlberg. And then
I hear these two people behind me going, holy shit, wait,
Mark Wahlberg. And they're looking and they can't find Mark Wahlberg.
And they're like, I thought that woman said Mark Wahlberg here,
and I was like, it's Mark Wahlberg. But it's a
different Mark Wahlberg. And they're like, oh, okay, because that
looks nothing like Mark Wahlberg.
Speaker 3: Poor Mark, Poor Mark. He must get that all the
time constantly. Gosh, I feel terrible by that. He should
change the name. I know, Kevin Wahlberg, I know, poor guy.
Speaker 1: And then we were laughing about the fact that so
because because he was having to do the step and
repeat well, and he was like, this is just always
so awkward for me because a lot of people don't
know who he is. So when they so he was
telling me a story because I told him about when
I was doing parental discretion and I had to walk
the carpet for the Kid's Choice Awards, but nobody knew
who I was, and it was a lot of most
of it was kids. So here's me walking out on
the carpet and no one knew who I was. So
every camera dropped now even when they announced like they say,
and they just all kept their cameras down. And do
you remember this story. Kevin Hart was there and I
used to so Kevin Hart and my kids went to
preschool together and I've had many a conversation with him,
but he was in Kevin Hart celebrity mode, so he's
they're taking his picture a bunch. So I was just
like fuck it. So I just like walk up to
him and I was like Kevin Hey seventy and then
he was like, oh hi, and I was like, let
me take a picture with you. I'm going to get
in this motherfucker ps however, I have to harm myself out.
And he literally looked like these assholes with their cameras.
I know, he looked at me like Okay, sure they
took a picture. Nobody ever did anything with it. But
then then he left and then as I kept walking,
the cameras again, yeah, no one was interested, and I
was with like a PR person who was trying to
tell me right right right the Stefanie she's from nick
Mom and they were like still know. Yeah. So Mark
was telling me that that's happened to him several times
where they didn't know who he was, and when they
said Mark Wahlberg, the cameras would go up, but then
they would be like, that's not Mark Wahlberg, so they
would drop the Oh my god, oh this is terrible.
I know that is the biggest. If that's not a
hot arm, I don't know what is. But he's just
he's like sweet and yeah, he's like whatever.
Speaker 2: He's such the nice guy. He's like the nicest and
he's a hard working guy. Hard works hard. Yeah, he
really does. He should really be doing.
Speaker 1: More, I think in the in the TV and I
don't know, you should be hoasting like stuff.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's hard. I know he's got Temptation Island. Yeah,
but I don't know. He's he's he's he's he's I
mean on the eyes, he's.
Speaker 1: On the eyes.
Speaker 2: And I worked with him back in the day when
he did his talk show, and he was nothing but
kind and professional.
Speaker 1: So you ran into him. Yes, And as you know
from when we had him on our show. He was
the host of the first show I ever worked for
as a writer producer, and oh my god, like the
most professional. He was so good at what he did.
I was spoiled for all hosts, like because some of
them are not great. He never missed a flubbed a
line like. He always seemed like he was just he'd
read a teleprompter and always seemed like it was coming
off the top of his head. Super professional. And I
told you the story of one time he had the
legitimate flu and he was like, the show must go on.
He would go in his dressing room he was running
a fever, and then he would come out. Yeah, just
I believe it. You wouldn't know, You would have no
idea he was sick, because the whole freaking crew was there.
You know. He was like, I'm not going to let
like hundreds of people waste I'll get through it. I
know he's a nice guy. So anyway, he was there,
so we hung out with him, and I had one
of those moments for a second where because Rob, because
Robin had never met him. So I go to introduce
and I blink on his last name for a second. Yeah,
that happened. Yes, I was like, it's Mark. So I
was like, Robin, this is my friend Robin, and this
is Mark. And she was like, oh Mark, and I
was like, you know, he's been on our show. And
then she was like and then I it just was
as the word thing and I was like, Mark Wahlberg,
It's Mark Wahlberg. I tried not to sound too excited
that I thought of his name, right right, Yeah, anyways,
So okay, so that happened. Then we go in. Then
I see I see a couple of faces that look familiar.
I mean, there was one guy that I was like,
is that Rod Stewart? But it wasn't Rod Stuart, but
it was like somebody trying way too hard to look
like oh God, especially at that old age, unless the
buzz chair Stuart. I'm going to show you a picture.
Yeah it wasn't totally blonde hair that I'm going to
show you a picture later and I might post it
and you guys can tell me because I so you
still don't know if it was Rod Stewart. I'm ninety
nine percent sure it wasn't Rod Stuart, but it really
looked especially from a distance. I was like, holy shit,
Rod Stewart's here. Wow. He was wearing like a velvet,
like a velure jacket in the heat, tan pants. Oh god,
and no one was performing, like he wasn't in a band,
right thing. So I was like, he's dressed like a musician.
There were a lot of people that You're like, I
don't know that person definitely looks familiar, but I'm not
great with faces. Yeah, okay, so I'm trying to think
of the high points to tell you. Okay, so we
see from Love on the Spectrum. Have you watched Love

I hang out, I have some fun something happens that
I talked about on Patreon, yes this week. So now
do they yes? That was a good Patreon?
Speaker 2: Did they sit you at you're a sign you have
to be assigned to a table or I.
Speaker 1: Was assigned to a table? Okay, not with Mark Wahlberg. Yeah, okay,
So I go sit up my poker table and there's
this place was a little bit comedian heavy, but I
don't really recognize many comedians except for a couple right
which were Patreon. But Dave Foley is like the kind
of the bigger star that's there from kids in the Hall.
And then I'm seated at my table. The poker tournament
gets ready to start. They go, Okay, go to your table.
So I go sit down and I'm seated with all
guys one guy, which was pretty funny. I get introduced
to by Mark. So Mark comes over. Mark Wahlberg comes
over to talk to us, and then he's like, he
introduces me to a couple people at the table, and
one of the guys is somebody that I literally had
a crush on when I was twenty eight, when I
had my first job. Oh and I guess because Mark
Wahlberg was the host of the first show. So there
were a couple of people that had been in like
a group of guys that were all friends with each other.
I see, right, So this guy used to come to
the set and it's so funny because I just said,
I was like, oh my god, I'll just tell you
his name. It doesn't really matter. You can look him up.
But his name is David Pressman. Okay, and he's an actor.
I haven't seen him in a lot of stuff, but
when I was I was like, oh my god, Dave, impressment.
I go. So, now this is like thirty years later.
I said, I have the fattest crush on you. Thirty
years ago. You know, I love it, Stephanie, I love it.
And he was like really, but I think that just
blurted it out. I did because I was like, he
fucking cares care I got grown kids? Yeah? Yeah, what
does he look like? Is he? All? He was still
totally cute. Okay, he was totally cute. He was so nice.
And this is it's it's so weird that like I'm
now old and I have kids and you know whatever,
it's just a weird thing when you're a woman, Like
the guys are still totally like I think, fuckable to women. Yeah,
but when you're a woman of a certain age, it's
like a little bit hard. You gotta work a little harder. Yeah,
And I wasn't working that hard up right right? You know. Yeah,
I get what you're saying. Yeah, what am I trying
to do here? You know, I'm in my glasses. You know,
I straightened my hair, put some makeup on, like, you know,
I got to be able to see my cards. I'm
not going to put any contacts, you know what I mean. Yeah,
you gotta put your glasses all right. So it's like,
you know, it's why don't you hearing? Aiden? Hearing? Aiden?
I'm like what so there was so that guy's sitting there,
and then there's a guy sitting right next to me,
and it's like they're all it's so actor. Yes, they're
all talking about acting.
Speaker 2: I picture like like something you'd see like on you know, uh,
I don't know, and on like in a movie where
a bunch of guys are sitting around and they're like,
I would be intimidated if I were you, especially these
kind of guys that well, I mean, I know you
play really well, but like to sit with these kind
of guys that are, you know, into it and kind
of know each other.
Speaker 1: That's what happened as I started to find out that
they all play poker together. Right, that's got to be
that's intimidating, right. It wasn't intimidating until I started, until
they started playing. And also, this was the thing, this
is where it comes back in where I'd gotten a
little bit of bonus chips, but I look around everybody
seemed to have way more chips than I did, so
I ask. So it turned out that they had offered
this thing at the beginning of the tournament that like
for fifty bucks, you can get an extra like two
thousand chips, which I hadn't heard about. I would have
totally done it. Yeah, had I heard about it, but
I guess I didn't hear it. And the guy next
to me, I was like, how do you have so
many chicks? How do you have so much more chips
than I do? He goes, oh, well, I did that
extra buy in for fifty bucks. I was like what,
And then the dealers like, yeah, I announced it, and
I was like, she said, they announced it before everybody
sat down, and she goes and then I announced it again,
and I was like, I didn't hear it, But so
I'm starting out at a big disadvantage. Yeah, but you
couldn't buy them then, and there idea but I would
have had to pay one hundred dollars for like half that.
Oh god. So I was like kind of to start
out already, like I'm already two hundred dollars in for
this night, So I don't I'm not like made of money, right, yeah? Yeah,
you know. Yeah. I was just like I I it's
not that I wouldn't have paid one hundred dollars and
I would have later. So Also, there's this thing in
poker called rebuy's. If you're in a tournament, so you
could just if you run out of chips, you can
just buy more. Okay, but you have to be under
a certain amount of chips. You can't just keep at it.
But all these guys had a lot of money. They're
all actors, like on shows. So anyway, the guy next
to me is like talking to his friend and he
says something about how being on the Good Doctor. So
he's on The Good Doctor a parlor he was, which
is a show about a doctor with autism, right right,
So he's telling me about he's telling the table, not me.
So I was like, I'm sorry, I said, uh, this
is really early on, like we're still we're not even
playing at I think. And he's saying something about the
Good Doctor, and I was like, I've I've never seen
that show. I was like, but I'm sure you're amazing.
I go, what, you know, what's your name or whatever?
He's like, Nicholas Nick is so his name is Nick Gunzalez.
You want to look him up. Cute guy, like he's
you know whatever. I'm like, the mom at the table
guy start showing me pictures of their kids. Yeah right, yeah, yeah.
It was just kind of funny, but I'm like okay.
And then he's showing me pictures of his wife, who's like,
you know, obviously young, yeah, and very pretty, blonde blue eyes,
like you know, he's showing me the pictures of his kids.
He's like, yeah, they really they look more like me.
And then he's like, here's my wife.
Speaker 2: All right, I'm not trying to hit Look, I'm safe.
How many people are how many guys are at the
table or how many?
Speaker 1: So a total seats nine people. That's a big table. Yeah,
so it's so and it but it wasn't. It hadn't
filled up. There were a couple of seats that were
empty that people that didn't show up or whatever. Okay,
So then that we start betting, and there's another guy
and he's a comedian and I don't. I don't. He's
like a comedic actor and I'm going to figure out
who he was. But I knew he was somebody, but
I was like, I don't know who he is. And
he plays poker with those guys. I'm going to ask them.
So everybody introduced themselves to each other. Yes, people were talking,
and I.
Speaker 2: Would feel like, because you're the only woman at the table,
that people they would be like hey, hi, you know,
what's your name, like to make you feel.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they weren't. No, No, that was the part that
wasn't super fun is they were very because they all
really know each other so they all have like inside stories. Yes,
everybody was really friendly though. Don't get me wrong. Yeah,
people were so nice there. Everybody was like nice, but
it wasn't They were just talking poker and they all
have a lot of history with other poker games. So
we start playing. Immediately, one of the guys, the guy
who I'll have to ask Mark Wahlberg who he is
betting so heavy and I was like, I'm gonna have
no like if I go in on any of these hands.
This guy's raising like a thousand dollars. I started with
like three thousand chips. The guys like raise a thousand,
and I was like, dude, what that's not necessary. This
is a charity event. But I was immediately like why
the fuck did they put me at this table with
all these guys that are Then the guy Nick next
to me tells me that he's played in these like
real poker tournaments where he's placed like he's like, yeah,
I came in in the money I came in second
place in this I was this tournament champion and I
was like Jesis and unfortunately poker was the main event.
So once you finished playing poker, that's a home yaues Yeah,
because everybody is playing poker. Robin's off eating like desert
and with a couple people, but her friends. She knew
people there, But meanwhile, sitting at the very next table
to me is Abby and David from This Seasons. Yes,
the Lion the Why I love them, the Lion King
to her song. Did you see her song? Oh my gosh,
I'm like a super fan. You saw them. They were there,
They were sitting right next to me. So Robin and
I were trying to stalk her. Okay, first of all,
you gotta be a little bit like you don't want
to make people with autism like uncomfortable, but at the
same time, like not everybody with autism is the same. Yeah,
some people like the fact that they're kind of famous,
but you don't know what you're gonna get. Yeah, So
we were like waiting and trying to So she's sitting
literally like next to me. I took a picture with
her behind me, like I did with the Maurice Hurry. Yes,
when my family fucking made me crazy, it made me
have an anxiety attack. Oh who's that was Avarice? Yes,
oh my god. Luckily nobody did that because everybody was
like I was like, oh my god, it's Abby. So
I snapped a picture when she was standing behind me,
but she was sitting next to me. But you didn't
want to be like Abby. Hey yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, okay.
But then a little bit later, do you remember the
guy I think he was from first or second season
or maybe first season. His name is his big guy
Indian guy, and his name is Subode. I have a
picture of him. Yes, he's pretty severely autistic. Yeah, okay,
So first we so we see him and I was like,
oh my god, Subode. And then then we see his sister,
you might remember for the show. I'm going to show
you a picture of her and I'll post it. I'll
post this on Facebook as well. But so we see
her and we were like, oh my god, like, we're
big fans of like your brother, and she's super like
gregarious and she's wearing this hot pink like uh, sparkly dressed. Yeah,
she's so nice. So we start talking to her, and
we were like, hey, should we like we're fans, but like,
could we just walk up to him and say hi?
And she was like totally like he loves it, He'll
be thrilled. So we're like okay, and you what about
taking a pic asking him for a picture. She's like,
go for it, We'll love it. So later we have
our chance. He's just by himself for a minute, So
Robin and I walk up to him and we're like, hi,
we're big fans, and he was like, hello, how are you?
Then he did the thing. It was so fricking cute.
He starts trying to have conversation with us, but like
you know on the show Love on the Spectrum, how
they work with the coach and they learn how to
have like conversations. Yes, yes, it was absolutely the cutest
thing you've ever seen because he was really like making
eye contact and he was like hi. He goes, I'm
a lifetime learner. Do you like to learn? And then
Robin's like, I sure do, I also teach. I teach kindergarten.
But he was just like, uh huh, what do you
like to learn? He's like, I like to learn marine biology.
What do you like to learn. So then Robin goes, well,
I like to learn, and she had an answer which
I don't remember what it was. And he was so
good because he goes, oh, that's nice. What do you
like to learn to me? And then I was like
totally put on the spot, and I'm like I can't
get him off script. I got to say something that
I'm interested in learning, so it's like I don't know,
I'm trying to like learn more like audio, like audio
stuff like editing audio. And he was just like, okay,
I really like marine biology, though, do you like marine biology?
And I was like sure, sure, And then with that
he literally turned around and just walked away. And it
was the greatest encounter with a celebrity I've ever had,
because I was like, why can't all he actually just
be like like no, awkward, Like he didn't have to
go like all right, I'm gonna go mingle like yeah
and meet other people like nice talking to you, like
just he was. I did a thing, turned around, and
I was like we should all be want to be
on and walk away like now on board, yes, and
that should just be enough, very polite yes, say hello
and then just walk away. Just turned turned and walked away,
and Robin and I laughed. We were just like, that
was the greatest moment of my life. I can't believe that.
It was so fun and it was so adorable. Not
to infantilize him, he was like he was, but it
was so nuts. He was so sweet, sweet, so sweet.
So then we were talking. Were we talking to Abby's mom? No,
we were talking to a mom one of Robin's friends.
We were asking her for advice, and we're like, we
kind of want to approach Abby, but like I don't
want to. And then I guess she's a like she
does like the attention, but sometimes she doesn't. So they
are basically like, you know, just sus it out. Yeah,
Like she made.
Speaker 2: Probably honest, like she's probably if she's not into it,
she's not into it.
Speaker 1: Yeah you know, yeah yeah. But I was like, there
were so many people with autism there and it was
so cool, you know, people that were working for the
food and like everybody was just so nice. And we
never did talk to Abby though, because we would walk
by her and she just wouldn't look at like, she
would just be walking, but it just seemed like she
was in her element. I was like this you know,
anybody that says this show's like exploitive or whatever, it's
these kidding. I love that, freaking love it. They loved.
You could tell they knew they were like celebrities and
they were like, oh yeah, you know.
Speaker 2: I mean, especially from season one into season two. My
favorite is the one I can't think of his name
but on her Connor.
Speaker 1: I love him so much.
Speaker 2: I love him and I love how the last episode
ended with him was like be still my heart. He's
like like fell in love. And I love his parents.
I love his mom, I love his kid. His siblings
are great. I know, he's just the greatest. And I
could tell. I bet you if you saw Connor there,
he'd probably like the attention.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah yeah.
Speaker 2: I think because he changed a little bit. He got
more cocky in season two. Yes, you know, and you
could tell because people were like, oh, you were so
great in season one, so you.
Speaker 1: Know, remember when he was just like I don't like blondes.
I don't like blondes. And then the mom's like, well,
maybe you could just give it a chance. I don't know.
Should we should all be that honest? We should? Yes?
I love how honest they are. Yeah, yes, I know,
so that was it was very exciting in that way.
That was like, it was way more exciting for me
to see like the cast of you know yeah on
the spectrum than people from a show I've never write,
I've heard of but don't know. Yeah, because the guy
Nick after The Good Doctor. Well then then he was like, yeah,
now I'm on a show luckily whatever, I'm on a
show called Librea. And I was like, yeah, nothing, that
is it on CBS, which is so funny because like,
have you ever heard of a show called Librea? No,
he's really that's the name of his show and it's
out literally the name of the show. Yeah, because I
googled him, I am d beat him Librea. Then of
course it was funny because like, you know, I look
him up and it says that he left the show.
He left Good Doctor. I think under weird they killed
his character off. And then there was like creative differences
or he says he understands that they have to make
creative choices that he didn't really agree with. Like I
was like, oh, there's so I should have she asked
for more of the story there. Yeah, yeah, I should have,
but that would have seemed awkward if I was like, so,
why are you not on the Good Doctor? Just put
him on? The show ends like a lot of the
show ended, so I just assumed, yes, yeah, ended, well,
well he's a working actor, yeah, which is why he
was able to buy stacks exactly money. So yeah. So anyway,
I got out really fat, like pretty fast really because
well the blinds. You know how poker tournaments work, so
they're small blind and big blind, so it's you're automatically
in once it goes around. At one point you're the
small blind. So at one point it's like one hundred
dollars one hundred chips. Two hundred chips is the forced bet.
Then like literally in fifteen minutes they're like, okay, it's
two hundred, four hundred chips. Okay, I was only starting
with three thousands, So it goes very quickly. Yeah yeah. Meanwhile,
other tables of people though at my table, so I
get I'm out kind of quickly. Played one hand. I
was also getting dealt terrible cards. Every hand was like
five three off suit. I was like, seriously, jack five,
like nothing I could play. I had one hand that
was Ace Queen, and I bet it and everybody folded
because I was I'd been playing, like not betting any right.
They're like, oh, well, obviously she has something. Everybody folded.
I'm like, fuck off. So I got out. So then
then Robin and I walked around. We should we do
another ad? And then yes, we should do another ad.
We we should talk about and this is very timely
for us to talk about Bazgo because summer's here and
mosquito season is in full swing, especially in my bedroom.
Speaker 2: I know, right, I now, they're everywhere, and I'm telling you,
I was hearing the buzzing in my ear. So I

This one's like a lighter like yellow wiet, like like
like a Pastali color. And I can't It's so comfortable,
so nice for summer. I love those dresses. They're just
a rap dress and the material it's like you think
it's an expensive dress, like it's it's kind of heavy.

few minutes about Father's Day. But I got John some
of those performance shorts that Kaylin loves, yes, rep yeah,
and he loved him. I did nice. Yeah. But they
have so much good stuff there and it's so much
less expensive.
Speaker 2: Yeah, others cut out the middle. Yeah, it's kind of
caught fire. Oh, a lot of people my daughter ordered

of stinks that you didn't that you were up against
these guys that were It's okay, heavy handed, you know what, though,
I had a great time. It was all for charity.
I don't even know what the prize is. I mean
it probably wasn't even money for the prize. Yeah, like whatever, Right,
it was a really good time. I mean I left
there kind of like excited, and you know it was
just like super fun. Yeah yeah, fun all around night
with a couple of run ins. That one is on
our Patreon and I think one is going to be
on my if anybody who listens is on the board
AF patreon. There's the other part of the story is
going to be on that Patreon for reasons which my
board AF listeners will understand. Okay, Also Drunkish Tomorrow. Do
you remember Laura House Yeah, Median, Yeah, she's going to
She is my guest on tomorrow morning's episode. No today,
yeah today, on today's episode of Drunkish, and she is
so I love her. She's just such a great storyteller.
And we talked a lot about food stuff, yeah, sugar,
and she had had a she was a big food
addiction person. Really, it's in two parts, and the second
part is all about after she got sober the first anyway,
that's a great episode. So listen to Drunk. Yeah, it's good.
Speaker 2: It's like a big ad for and also the last
week's episode Alison Rosen's good. Oh my god, amazing, she
can talk. She's very honest. You're right.
Speaker 1: Yeah, really I enjoyed it. Yeah, it was good. It
was a hit. Yeah, got a lot. I saw a
lot online too. Your clips are looking good, thank you. Yeah,
they're coming up. Yeah, we picked a good one for that.
Now it's about her. It was about her trying not
to text a guy. She would get very guy obsessed
and then she has a drink and then text the
guy after she promises she's not going.
Speaker 2: To Yes, I think she's written about that too before
in the past.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I remember that story. But yeah, really good. Yeah,
the Drunk is just doing good. Yeah. Wow. So, so
yesterday was Father's Day. Yes, Now, I'm sure it was
a big day in your house. I did. I took
Phil on a hike, That's what I did. Did the
kids go do something?
Speaker 2: Natalia is with her friends in Lake Tahoe. Oh okay,
but sunny, Yeah, Sonny went and hung out with him
for a few hours. I went to home depot really
and yeah, sandwiches. That's fine, Okay, Yeah, I had fun,
all right. I could have taken Phil with him, but
he had to take a new Word to get there.
He did because he doesn't have a car.
Speaker 1: No, and I told him I would drive him and
he was like, it's all right. It was a var
so all right, but anyway, yeah, well, how'd you go
our Father's Day? Okay, So at two o'clock in the
morning morning of Father's Day, our internet went out. So
I woke up to that sinking feeling of like, what
I know, my phone is off. My phone is literally off.
I don't know why it's ringing. That's so weird. It's
on silent. Oh okay, anyway, excuse me, everybody, I'm going
to edit that out. Listen now you're going to peek
behind the curtains. Life without Kaylin. Okay, I don't have
all day to be edited, got ship to do. So anyway,
wake up, no internet. That's sinking feeling because a few
months ago we had a big problem with Spectrum and
it was out in and out all week long and
we almost changed services. But it was it's a whole
Keshaw yes, to change your internet. I know this shit
is bundled like your TV. So then if you you
can't really get mad and go well, then fuck off.
We're moving to AT and T. That's a payment. But
they're going to be like, okay, good luck with that,
but now you're going to be paying full price for
your TV. You know what I mean?
Speaker 2: Yes, I have the same thing. I have the TVs connected.
The why I I connected, right, so when any of that,
whenever the Wi Fi goes out, it might as well
have the power be out. That's you know, yeah, because
there's nothing you can't can't text, you can't get text.
Speaker 1: Same so our cells service in our house has gotten
worse over the years, not better. So we have no bars. Yeah,
I have the same problem at my house. Nothing it's impossible,
you can't so you can't really send a text like
or it's very spotty. You go in the backyard try
to text somebody. But when you're in the house it's
like you're camping, right, I know that feeling. It's just
a weird feeling. And then and then it's weird because
like a couple of times the kids were like, Okay,
well I want to go I want to go get internet.
I want to see like if I have any text
or email. So then we'd have to go drive somewhere. Yeah,
let's all right, family trip to CVS, sit in the
parking lot. I know I've done that a million times.
So two in the morning it starts, which obviously I
wasn't up at that time. But like, so from first
thing in the morning, I have no internet. I'm supposed
to record a couple episodes of my other podcast. I
can't do that, so there's nothing to do the kids.
When the kids wake up, they're just like, dude, what
the fuck, Like, there's nothing to do. So then I
literally read a book. I had nothing to do. Uh huh.
I now remember it's Father's Day, but we had now internet,
So what are you supposed to do? And so on
Mother's Day, we had all watched a movie. Remember I
told you we watched My Old Ass. Yes, yeah, everybody,
and we ordered pizza and it was like we had
a great time. Yeah. Well, so John told me that
he wanted burgers for dinner. Okay, So I went to
the store and I got stuff for burgers he wanted.
He wanted turkey burgers with sauted mushrooms. Ooh, that sounds good. Yeah.
So I later I made dinner, but I read a
book called Malibu Rising Taylor Jenkins, who wrote The Steven
Husbands of Evely and Hugo. I think that's the name
of the book. And she wrote, oh, she wrote Daisy
Jones in the six Oh. Okay, yeah, okay, this is
a pretty good book. It's similar to it has a
similar flavor to Daisy Jones. Okay. Yeah. And I'm I
literally have like one hundred pages to go.
Speaker 2: Really, so you read it? You know, I think audible
works without internet. Yeah, listen to I'd have to go
download it first. Well if you well, I mean if
you don't already have it down the book.
Speaker 1: Well, Elbe had the book in her room and I
was like, I've heard that's a good book. Have you
read it? And she said no. So I was like, well,
I took it and I decided to just read a book.
Oh nice. I know. I feel like my brain grew
a little, right, I grew back. I developed a few
new brain cells. Yes, yeah, I'll say you can't regenerate them.
But I feel like I feel smarter.
Speaker 2: Well maybe because you cleared space out, like you got
read of some songs that you don't like. Yes, yeah,
deleted that space so you made room for you know,
a couple hundred pages.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I do still feel like I would read
a chapter and then if I if I had to
do something for a second and then come back to it,
I'd be like, I don't remember what happened, you know
what I mean. It's like, you know what it's like
being my age, It's like being high all the time,
because me too, and I would be high and try
to watch a movie. In the middle of the movie,
I'd be like, I forgot what this So that is
like being high. Yeah, like what's this book? I have
to look at the back cover, back page, the back
of the book again and go oh yeah, okay. Yeah.
Speaker 2: There's times where Phil will pot me in the evening
and I'd go like, what do you want from me?
Speaker 1: I already fit? Did I feed you? Did I not
feed you?
Speaker 2: Did I feed And I'm like, I can't remember I
feed him because sometimes I feed him at five, sometimes
they feed him at seven. Right, it's all the same, right,
But yeah, it's like being stoned. Yeah, So anyway, we
didn't we did.
Speaker 1: We had dinner. We did not watch any kind of
movie because we couldn't see our TV. So I read
and college and I gave John for Father's Day some
new headphones, some wireless headphones, and Jehan is like he
he hates to be fussed over at all. I don't
know why. He just like feels guilty about it. And
he has headphones, but they're so gross and he wears
them all the time. He's they're always around his neck.
He's constantly wearing him. So we wanted to get him
new ones and he was just like, wait, why I
have I have headphones? And we were like those are gross,
you need new ones, and he was like, no, I
could have just gotten the new the new cushions. The
cushions because because it's sticking to his neck and stuff,
they're all shredded. Yeah, they're all like pieces are hanging off.
And we were like just just just say thank you, yes,
why are you making How do we get hurt? You know?
Speaker 3: Right?
Speaker 1: Anyway, that's a good thing happened. Yeah, it was nice. Nice,
and that's it. That was yeah, that's nice. And then
I was thinking that we should get to our shouts first,
because part of our shout, I want you to tell
the story. We'll just say it. Yeah, talking about our
Patreon business shout outs. Adam Adam Lerner got me a
car this weekend. This weekend, he showed up. He sent
me a text, I found your car. So he had
already gotten Italia car.
Speaker 2: He got in Italia, her car, renewed her lease and
then my lease was up like in the at the
end of this month. And I told he, I was like,
I don't know, I don't really want another Tesla, but
I don't.
Speaker 1: I like the power of the Testla. That's the only
thing I like anyway.
Speaker 2: I wanted fully electric, got the fully electric Mercedes Suv.
Speaker 1: And you're having big, big sales right now.
Speaker 2: I cannot believe it is. The monthly payment is so
much cheap. It's like the Tesla is three times as much.
Wow yeah, wow yeah, and not very much down. It's
a lease and it's great, Like I love it. It's cute,
it's roomy.
Speaker 1: It's powerful, and it's all electric and hallelujah. And how
was the cause? When I was texting with you, you
said that he was at your house. He was at
my house. He came, he took the other car.
Speaker 2: He brought the guy came from Mercedes from Beverly Hills,
like in his Mercedes outfit, sat with me in the car.

went through all, you know, everything I had to do
everything in the car, and that was It was great.
It was so unbelievably easy, so easy. And I'm like,
I text Stephanie. I'm like, should I tip him or what?
Speaker 1: Like he does?
Speaker 2: He does, does all this work, and it's like, I
didn't do anything. I just told him what I wanted.
He sent me pictures. I went and test drove one
the other day. I said, yep, I like it done.
Came brought my car, took the other car that was it. Yeah,
And they brought me the charger because I have to
have a different charger. It works with my Tesla charger,
but that one didn't work. So now they're sending me
another one. They're going to bring it to me.
Speaker 1: Wow.
Speaker 2: I'm like, I have the other charger that charged really slow.
This one charges fast. I said, you could just send
it to me in the mail. But that's why my
phone rang. I was Adam colleague.

He's so sweet.

would find them deals. And then when he he had
a different job, like a sales job, doing like promo items. Right,
I think he got us like a deal. He's the
one who got us our shirts. So we worked for
this company that made T shirts that could make all
your stuff for your company, uh huh. But then he
just didn't like it that much. And basically his wife,
