In short
The episode is a mix of two things: (1) the hosts’ chaotic, celebratory recap of Coachella (including musical highlights, fandom shout-outs, and a power outage story), and (2) a full interview with pop star Adela (“Adéla”) about her music, tour, mental health during rehearsals, and navigating internet perception.
Guest backgrounds
Adela is a pop superstar with a new song “KGB” (out Friday) and a tour opening for Demi. She’s also discussed her background as a Slovak girl who learned English and became a pop fan through Hannah Montana, then built her career through music and performance.
Key claims
Adela says she doesn’t feel pressure about her tour because “it’s the Adela show,” but rehearsals can trigger severe self-criticism and breakdowns. She argues fandom names are mostly terrible, and she avoids Twitter while still checking TikTok. She frames online backlash as misunderstanding and says she uses it to write/sing instead of deleting.
Notable examples
Coachella highlights include Bieber, Disclosure (“Latch”), and Subtronics; Adela’s examples include filming her “KGB” video with nine looks in one day at the LA Theater, and her “Hannah Montana” origin story (learning English via interviews/subtitles).

Automatic transcript. May contain errors.0:00For decades, a shadowy organization called the Lemonati has kept lemon on top and lime in the shadows. Look around, lemon forward sodas, even lemon forward songs. We ran the tracks, slowed them down, reversed them and squeezed out the truth.
0:19That's lemon propaganda right there. But now, 7up is fighting back with their new lime lemon soda. Join the 7up rising. Flip the sip.
0:41Adela is on Therapist tonight. We are so excited. I, my, like, the. Uh-huh. I, um. Uh-huh, I can see your struggle. I, I'm really, I've been very manic today. And, like, I feel good, like, when I was on a call, me and Louise had a call earlier. and I kept asking for like pats on the back throughout the entire call. Like I kept texting her being like, I'm doing good, right? And that's how manic I was. I feel like you're not manic today. You're not giving me manic energy at all. You're actually giving me good energy. No, but so that's the thing is. I've seen mania. But that thing, you see it? I've seen your mania.
1:20What is it like? It is like nothing I've ever experienced with anyone else. What is it like? How would you describe it? I would be sitting here for 30 seconds. I'd look at my phone 46 texts shut up you do that you're a spammer and you're very impulsive you know that about yourself come on you're the most impulsive person ever Jake will decide that he wants to do something so random and then he won't consult anyone he won't think about it for more than 15 seconds and he does it and then instantly he's like what have I done we're like we told you to fucking breathe and you never do um friday night what happened friday that is a great way to put what happened friday night i started if i hate when you do that i said you need to breathe he starts spam texting him i'm like put your phone down enjoy the concert and we'll call him tomorrow yeah like that's all that's all that you need to do and by the way the lack of impulsion because i listened to my friends led me to a moment of realization the next saying that I actually wasn't that mad.
2:24I was just - You weren't that mad. I was insecure. Yeah. I just, every time I have this brief moment of insecurity, I like really, like that is like my most manic. Yeah. And it's like, but I don't have a problem saying I'm insecure. But I guess I do sometimes. And I feel like you do listen. You'll take the criticism. You take the clock and then you're like - I do listen to the clock. You listened to the clock. On Friday, you did. I was proud of you. But I used to not. because you weren't in a place to listen
2:55neither was I my love
3:01it's beyond every time I'm fucking doing this with you I'm congested like the way I know that you'll fucking clock my ass if I like snort right now and I need to so badly it's like right here
3:18I don't feel well It's not okay today And I'm in these pajama pants Oh we were just at Coachella Like we're not giving a timeline We just got home from Coachella An hour ago Dare I say Can you tell? I'm in merch That was the Coachella We That was the best Coachella We've ever done Ever Ever Ever I've seen one artist max a day. Yeah. And it's like, why not lean in? Why not go at 3 p.m.? Well, I know why. Because it's too fucking long. But 3 p.m. for you, my love. I go when I go. And I will meet you there. Everyone did their own thing. Charlie went at 4. Charlie went at 4. I also still am like, held out his end.
4:11Racking my brain, when did you go at three? Never. Jake never went. The earliest you went was maybe five. What time did we leave for the festival that time? No, you came early on Friday. I came early. We went at 5.30. 5.30. 5.30, not three. Two and a half hour difference. Okay. But we party all night. Yeah.
4:38That's why. Like, if you're going to go at 3, like, you can be asleep by 1. Follow your bliss. We're going to go at 5, and we will see you at 8 in the morning. Why are you laughing at me so much today? You're making me laugh. Okay, so my favorite side of the weekend. Siptronics. Me. No. You guys don't know what happened to me there. My soul left my body. No. Cass was in her Chrome Hearts beanie, and she had that beanie and a dream. It was the best thing I've ever experienced. Oh, I'm sure it was. I'm not even kidding. My soul left my body. I was looking around like it was euphoric. So the reason I'm so shocked is because this was Sunday.
5:27Sunday night. Sunday night, the last set we went to. 10 p.m. Sunday night. I am shocked. Like, I wasn't alive Sunday morning. I had to go home. I had to because I knew from my mental health this week if I did not arrive home in my bed on Sunday I would need Wednesday to recover as well I can't afford a Wednesday but you knew I you knew and that's why it's like you know yourself go home I'm shocked good for you I'm so happy for you I had today it's hitting me clearly all day I haven't I think you're just low on sleep but like do you feel really horrible yes I honestly I've never felt worse not to be a bitch but I feel awesome well you stayed in last night i went to subtronics with you yes her and will went out till four in the morning and that's where i drew the line we get back let me explain why this happened because this is not my fault you asked your party three nights in a row are you fucking clinical i'm seriously not well let me tell you a highlight for me from this weekend Should we peak and pit?
6:29Or peak and peak? Okay. I have a pit. But let me go with my peak first. My peak, aside from the Bieber of it all, which is just in a league of its own. Right. I would say, like, it really was Bieber cello start to finish. At the strokes. I understand that that is not your type of music. And baby, I understand. Why are you like. No, but I understand it is not yours. It's not mine. Okay. I had a good time. I had a good time. It didn't even matter to me that I knew, like, this wasn't your type of music. I've never in my life had more fun. Ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever in my life.
7:05Except when I was on Will's shoulders for some day. I already feel insecure about like, sometimes I feel like my ass is a little fat. Your ass is not fat. What? But I did keep - You kept asking Will, do you need a break? And I was like, holy shit, Jake, just if he needs a break, he's going to tell you. Any of the strokes was amazing. I would also say Disclosure. Oh my God. Disclosure was euphoric. Latch. And did I not call that? I said not many people are going to go. You knew. Also, everyone went. It was one of the more. I loved Disclosure. It was the entire weekend. It was so awesome. When Latch happened.
7:37My soul left my body. I don't even remember it. That was the best. Remember it. I blacked out. Let me just tell you one thing. I need to make one shout out here and right now. Actually, two. Sydney and Kaden. Are fucking girls. If I could send you my soul in a bucket, I would. I would. I would send you anything. They saved us this weekend single-handedly. Saved our lives. So shout out you for being great company. And perfect. Perfect. Made me, literally every time I saw you both, highlighted my weekend. I was so, listening to music with you guys was some of the most fun I ever had. And also, shout out Poppy for sending that up.
8:22really and truly thank you. Like it was, it made my Coachella and I understand that's not normal. To me, I am so grateful that it happened. That has never happened. Thank you. And thank you, Sydney and Kaden. Mic drop. Obviously, you know my peak and I just can't pick another one. I am the biggest Belieber ever. 10 toes down Belieber. Cardboard cutout in my room, purple beets in my backpack. Justin Bieber like tatted on my wrist, obsessed. I've never in my life, I will be honest, ever, ever, ever in my life, had a bigger believer in the entire world than you. I am biggest. Every YouTube rabbit hole, you've been down.
9:03And I love him down, and my love has never died. So obviously this was so important to me. No, no, no, Bieber Tella. And it's that serious for me. High swag. I took Jake's sweater, and he's telling me I can't keep it, but I just might have to. She can't, because I don't know when the next time I'm going to be able to get my hands on this merch is. Anyway, my biggest peak was the whole set list, but special shout out to when he was doing the songs from Never Say Never. Okay, what moment of when he was doing that YouTube DJ set, which I thought actually genuinely was so fucking cool. He started on YouTube.
9:41He was discovered on YouTube. All of his videos were on YouTube. Like the video when he did the, when he did So Sick, that is like a famous video of him singing to Usher on YouTube. Do people not understand that moment? I don't think people are clocking and it's like, yeah, that moment to me when he was looking at him, his younger self, to the video, on my full body chills, to the video. That was insane. No, it was so sick. It was so sick for me when he did So Sick and looked at himself and I was like, I felt like he was really healing himself and it was one of the more beautiful things I've ever seen.
10:14I was having an out of body experience and he looked so happy. So happy. So happy. So happy. It was great. And you could just tell that that's what he wanted to do. Like that is the way he wanted to perform and it's like, yeah, do whatever the fuck you want and if you're a real fan and you want to hear him sing, you will be happy with him sitting on the laptop and singing whatever the fuck he wants. I agree and I think if anyone's thinking like, oh, he kept cutting the songs early, duh, so he could play all of them. Right. He didn't want to have, he can't have a three hour set. Yeah. Enough. Tell us strict.
10:47And now I'm pissed. But what was your favorite moment aside from the Usher one? Okay, when my hair was standing up on my body is when he went to click a video. And I think it was fall. Was like an intro for five seconds. And he clicked off the video and the whole crowd was singing it. And then he started like lip syncing it. And it's really like if you know, you know moment. Which you obviously didn't know because you have no idea what I'm talking about. What is fall? Fall. in love. Ooh, my voice is really bad right now. Wait, it's never good. Yeah. What? What's fall? I'm pretty sure that was the song.
11:24Is that like an unreleased song? No, no, no, no, no. Because that's like, is it like a - Unbelieve. Oh, so it's like a real deep cut. Okay. Yeah. And also I have so many moments, obviously, when he sang Favorite Girl because that started the throwbacks and I really, it was a toss up. I was honestly shocked he did Favorite Girl. That he was going to do that. And so for me, would that be like Taylor Swift doing Coachella and seeing if she drops the Archer? No. Okay, what would it be like then related to Taylor Swift for me? Maybe a Pictures to Burn. Picture to Burn? Yeah, something from Debut. It's very OG.
12:00It's from his first album. Or like I'm Only Me When I'm With You. Not Fall. Favorite Girl is from his first album. Yeah. Yeah. It's OG, OG, OG shit. That's one of his best songs. It should have said no. Yes, yes, yes. Shoulda said no. Yes, yes, yes. Shoulda said no. If I heard the intro drums to shoulda said no and saw her rocking out on the Coachella stage on a Saturday night to shoulda said, Taylor has to do Coachella. When I tell you, it would change my life in ways that I would only see her. I wouldn't go anywhere else. I know. Okay. A peak of mine. Did you not already have five peaks? No.
12:42Is it not Cass' turn? It is my turn. Oh. Cat's Eye with you, Charlie and Will. And that's crazy because I'm not. It was. That was one of my peaks. But that was actually the best time of my life because you guys were like, just come, whatever. I came with you and I was feeling that music so hard. And I think it was just like the night with my gaze. Yes. What do you mean the night with your gaze? You, Charlie and Will. Oh, the night with your gaze. I thought you got real philosophical about like, oh my God, life is so beautiful. This is the first night of Coachella. Like the party's just begun. Why would that have meant that?
13:25I don't know how that. A night with my gaze. I don't know how that translated. How would that lead to that? I heard gaze G-A-Z-E. Like the night was my gaze. As if Cass is saying the Friday night. I don't even gaze. I don't even understand that term. So I don't think I would put it that way. So that's why I had this moment where I was really shocked for a second. Sometimes I think you think I have zero brain cells. Dude, that was an example of me thinking you had brain cells. Everybody else in the room. Everybody else. Including you. What am I saying? You said, I don't even know what that means.
14:00Yeah, you just clapped yourself. What does gaze mean to you? Like gaze. Like vision. Yeah. yeah what the fuck
14:12it also was like when would first of all when would i say that second of all that night with my gays my boys i get it was amazing also my other peak was i don't know if this really stands as a peak but you were on the best form of your life this weekend agreed and like actually i was speaking about that with will 50 times this weekend he was in i've never seen him this happy not one crash out like no negative energy best energy you've ever had and i know you kept saying you didn't want to be a host but like you basically did all that for us you were an awesome actually you were an awesome host you were the i've never seen that energy so high from you ever before like that was amazing yep so you were awesome can i tell you my worry you carried a vibe that feeling cannot be long lasting i knew you were gonna say i am very concerned that now that I know what that feels like it is going to make feeling shitty this week that much worse I know I feel I get the same way pause you should tell him about the power going out oh I want to hear about the power going out because I don't even know I got in the car I said Stella Elliot get in the car we're leaving the power had just gone out and I just get home what happened we We were sitting there.
15:30All of a sudden, obviously, everyone's phones stopped charging. The Wi-Fi goes out. My cell service is just horrendous. I cannot send a text without Wi-Fi. AT &T fixed that. Anywho, I literally, my phone didn't work for two hours. I had to go outside. Obviously, we're in the desert. The house is getting hot. Your worst nightmare. It was hot. It's getting hot. Ryan's shutting the doors. And Cass is lying outside. my phone doesn't work. I had no thoughts this day. No thoughts. I couldn't even comprehend what was happening. My phone was at 5 % and I was like, I'm just going to let it die. Like nothing matters.
16:08And you know, like I'm like really good at just going with the flow. I usually don't get super stressed. I start to panic. I am walking around in the backyard holding my phone up. I start lying on the tennis court because I'm like, this is an open area.

We didn't have budge for more than one day. Uh-huh. And that's okay. And that's okay. We said we have one day. Okay. And you made that shit work. And we made it work. And it was so fun. It was so scary also. But, you know, that's fun too. Getting a little bit scared. Yeah. I was like, okay. what was like scary about it the the schedule yeah it's just like okay we have one day nine looks it was just insane i like had to dance and i had like two takes for every dance shot um because they were like okay next look i was like oh okay um so i was just like i better get this shit right right and i did at the end of the day i did and you always do by the way so yeah mostly i try you really always do not in rehearsals right now i'm rehearsing for tour and i had a I had a mental breakdown yesterday because it was the first run through and I was like, oh my God, I suck, I suck, I suck.
21:33But I have those moments in private and then people can just be like, oh, that looks really good. How do you feel better when you have those moments? I actually don't feel better. I actually currently want to end it all. Die. Yes, that's okay. Me too. Me, and by the way, I woke up, looked at Louise. Louise was trying to talk to me and I just kept going like this.
21:58The other day I did a run through of my show and it sounded so bad that I just was literally like I was doing a career like this. It's kind of cunty though. I was like, call me the KG bitch. I was just like, whatever. Like whose fault is that that I sound bad? Mine. No, you don't. Who am I mad at? You are your own harshest critic. Right. But then I was like, okay, you know when I'll start feeling better when it sounds better and looks better. That's when I will start feeling better, honestly. so it's like that's that that's that russian training that is that that's not russian training that's that soviet training so so you know i think i just keep rehearsing and when it starts sounding better i'm like okay okay and then i enjoy when it actually is looking good but everything before that scary so scary were you this scared before you did you did like a bunch of like little shows little shows but by the way can I tell you when I knew you were like something special I mean like I really think you were something so beyond special no I mean I know like who am I to say like I have no skin in the game but I was at skin in the game please keep going I was at dinner I was at dinner and I looked to my left and there was this whole group of people just watching your tour video at dinner and they were like and look at her do this and this and I looked at my best friend Will and I was like do you see that yes yes yes yes and I was like everybody is talking about her perfect perfect perfect I need more people to be talking about me wait no I was at dinner with you yeah I was at dinner with you and Owen Theo and Owen Theo yes I love Owen Theo yes and I love everybody that watches those videos at dinners I love it I love it.
23:49That's really amazing. That's really sweet. Yeah. And it was such a cool moment. It felt like this like cultural moment where like everybody was watching. Because like did you have any expectations for that tour? Yes. I always have huge expectations. But it's like. But on myself. Like I know that when I get on stage I will gag people. So I had an expectation of like I think people don't quite understand that I can gag. The way that I can gag. Which is a good thing to have. but um I also was just like I felt zero pressure going into that tour because also I was like oh this is like the first time that people are buying tickets like I've been a performer my entire life I've like done ballets I've like done the show that I was on but it's always like you dance in a ballet like and you get to you get to like dance the part right but it's like about the story like Like this was the first time that like people were spending their money and time to go see me.
24:47Just be me. So I was like, oh, perfect. I actually feel zero pressure at all because I can just fuck around. Like they paid to see this. Right. Right. OK, like, you know what this is. Like, it's me. So it's Adela. It's Adela. It's the Adela show. Really? Really? At the end of the day. At the end of the day, it's the Adela show. So I was like, oh, amazing. Like, this is just all about me and I can do whatever I want. And so that made me feel really calm. This tour is going to be different because I'm opening for Demi. But she has been such an amazing, supportive, welcoming mentor that I'm like, shit, I feel welcomed too.
25:26Right. Like the Levotics. The Levotics. They're welcoming me. Do you have a fandom name? No, this is a story subject. Okay, tell me more. Like people love names that I hate. Like what? a divas hate it i hate it that's the worst name ever i think like adalians is funny oh i like italians the people don't like it wait what i don't know it's like we like my me and my fans are like i feel like you just need to decide and be like this is it that's what i say i'm like this is the adela show like again like hey what i say goes right clearly it doesn't like i guess my fans is like the one thing that doesn't really go the way that i want it to a divas is giving like hey bestie a divas is getting like like cunt and i'm like okay like sometimes but not all the time i also like adelophants but that's like people hate that one adelophants is funny but i love that one because to me that's like stupid yeah i can just go like what up adelophants and then It immediately disarms people as well.
26:32It disarms. Like, what did you just call me? Yeah. An adelophant, obviously. I will say I like Adelians. I like Adelians too. Or like, there was like Adelarinas. Oh, that's cunt. Oh. Yeah, Adelarinas is cunt. Right, because I am a ballerina. It's like topical. Yeah, yes. It's topical. And you can be like the ADRs, like Adelarinas. True. Right? Right, right? I can be creative too. Right, right? I can be creative too. Maybe that's the one. I don't know. I'm actively looking. But I think most fandom names are terrible, to be honest. Really? I enjoy very few. Yeah. Beehive, I love. I get most fandom names.
27:10The one I don't get, there are actually very few I don't get. Because when they are delivered with enough passion, I believe them. Do you know what I mean? If the fandom delivers it, this is who we are, I got you. I think most of them could be better. Arianator sucks. it's it's so hard to pronounce and i know that she doesn't even like that she wanted them to be like oh she wanted them to be called tiny elephants she did back in like the whatever my ariana grande history knowledge wait but can we talk about ari for five seconds yes let's talk because i am in a very big we spoke about this the other day when we were getting to each other and i was i get yelled at every single day when i'm at the gym and i put on because i put on ari like front to back you should never get yelled at and she walked in and she said who put this on And I said, me.
27:56Wait, can I, like, sit like this? Yes, please. But shoes on the couch? Yes, I'm going to take my shoes off, honestly. I would, but my dogs would be out, so. No, don't worry. I don't feel that. And also, you're wearing Louboutins. True, but they're, like, scuffed up. But isn't that how they should be? And I agree. Isn't that how they should be? And I agree. Red bottoms should be scuffed up. That's it. That's cunt. That's cunt. Okay. But you put me on to touch it. I, like, never heard touch it. I guess I'm like a bad Ari fan in that sense. Ari-inator. But I love Ari. I just had never given touch it really the moment it deserved.
28:30And you covered it at your show. And I was like. It's so good. It's my favorite Ariana song. One of my favorite ones. What makes it your favorite? The passion. I also saw it at the Dangerous Woman tour. I was with my mom. How old was I? Like 12, 13. It was monumental. Like it's ingrained. She was like doing the whistles at the end. She was like really putting her fucking Aria Nessie, like her ponytail into it. Like she like really like there was a growl. I was like, wow, this is just the best song ever. And then I also kind of like growing up, like like not being like the other girls. Like I was like, oh, touch it.
29:08Like I'm gonna put you on. No, you did. You guys don't even know. And you did. And I did. At the end of the day, I did. What are your other favorite Aria songs? Leave Me Lonely. Same album. So good, by the way. um i love my hair from positions because she does the outro all in whistles it's amazing um what else i love honeymoon avenue always tattooed always always always i used to listen on the way to school every single morning back to back honeymoon avenue and tattooed hard oh yes i love i love ghosting it's it's it's like historical it's a period piece like you had to be there it was a time to be alive i don't i think like people who are like you're gonna regret this why would you regret it everybody knows that she was engaged to pete davidson right and that she said that he has a huge schlong that's fine and then she said god forbid something happened at least the song is a smash yes and it was made fucking history like it's honestly sickening like name be messy like music is the place to be messy i agree i feel like a lot of people don't agree these days because i feel like um this like the like the peanut gallery is very loud and they're very loud and it's it takes someone like ariana to just like be like i care but i'm gonna keep doing it despite the fact that i care right exactly you know what i mean like you just need to like even with like eternal sunshine like she spoke about her divorce it's like that's what makes people like feel something like that's why people ride for that bitch yeah that's what i will ride for that bitch that's why i ride for beyonce for the rest of my life like these these women like they said jay-z cheated on me lemonade right oh oh okay and like everybody knew everything and that's so sick because hey like there's people out there that have been cheated on i i i wasn't when I first watched that, but I felt it spiritually.
Read the full transcript
31:12I felt it. I was there with my sister. That's how I felt listening to like Thank You Next the other day. Like I literally, two week situationship ended front to back. And I was like, I know we're in different situations, but like the way that they're able to chronicle like the highs and lows of a relationship because the experience is so personal to them and you know what they're talking about, it helps you relate more. Right. You know what I mean? Music. that's the magic of music baby that is and do you find it difficult ever with like the people like talking online and like like how does that affect you um not really because i think i i like wouldn't be doing my job if i let anybody telling me anything affect me like my job is to be me to the fullest extent and like put that into my music and obviously like sometimes you look at the internet and people have so many opinions but it's like i was actually talking about this with my friends like me and laura were talking about this and we were like we need to stop like looking up our own names on tiktok i do not have twitter that place is forsaken okay i recently have gone off twitter and you shall stay that way and i used to really love it no no no no no it's really scary it's it's really funny when you're not the butt of the joke and then it gets really scary and sad it gets really really scary and sad i'm like oh my god oh my god and it's like oh my god these people like they don't know me and i I don't know them and anything that you could say it's like try to make them understand you more.
33:03We'll just they'll somehow twist it to they already have a preconceived idea of who you are. So it's like there's no use to write it like it's like, OK, just let them just let them. But that's it's going to free you because you like it genuinely is like. I think it's like the worst thing ever to understand that you're being perceived by so many people and like hear what they have to say about you. like I'm gonna be honest like do you know who two Hollis is yeah he would like talk about this and he's like I'm off social media like whatever whatever and I was like okay Hollis like you're off social media yeah but I was like fuck Hollis you're right like I should be off social media like he was on onto something because I was like I started writing this album and then there was a point in time that people started saying something on the internet and it like I was thinking about writing songs differently because somebody said something and i was like uh-oh right wrong i was like that's wrong i can't do that so i just i'm kind of off like i'm very on the internet but i'm off twitter i do look up my own name on tiktok every morning still every morning yeah every morning but i should stop doing that i'm like thinking of honestly blocking you know how you can like mute certain words yeah i might mute my own name but also like i'm not lit enough yet to be like really not looking if people are talking about me because the conversation is important like i think once i'll get like really famous then i'll be like well fuck it like right now i know people i know people are talking yeah and i'm like at peace with that yeah and now i can just like move completely like i don't have to look myself up but right now i have to keep checking i'm like is owen thiel watching my video at dinner right and we were and you were and we And that's great.
34:50That's great. You know what I mean? Was it hard? Did you delete after the documentary came out? Or did you delete more recently? Honestly, I've had waves. Like, I was looking myself up. When the documentary came out, it was really interesting. because a lot of people, when you're on a reality show and you're a young girl, people love to tear young girls into shreds. This is just their favorite pastime. They just think that we're the villains. I think they also think you guys are easy, vulnerable targets. Right. But then also at the same time, everybody tries to be super woke and is like... Well, if you're so woke, then you shouldn't be on Twitter.
35:42That part, I think. That part. but but um yeah so people were really tearing into us and not just me like my best friends who made it into the group my friends who didn't make it into the group like everybody all these young girls who at the end of the day spent almost two years of their life away from their families doing some really hardcore fucking boot camp training and like situate going through situations that you guys will never know because obviously not everything was shown in the documentary we're now also getting torn to shreds on the internet by strangers so I was like this is so insane obviously and so crazy but also I was like it is not the time to be depressed about this um it is time to put out music about this because people are talking about it so they want to hear what I have to say and I don't like talking I like singing so I shall sing about it and that's kind of how my career started so really I was just like I didn't delete it um I didn't delete Twitter I didn't delete social media I was like looking at it but I also had the understanding that I was like okay these people just don't understand me at all and know me and that's okay because they haven't gotten the chance to and I think still like I have seven songs out like people don't really know me like i think they'll get to know me eventually through like all my work but and they'll i mean they will never know me like we'll never be friends really we can't be friends we can't be friends but i like to just pretend i used to think that song was about her ex-husband but i was convinced and swayed that i actually think it's about the press and the fans i've heard i've heard and i really believe it i believe it too because you have a love-hate relationship it's like you are so thankful for your fans and for the people that give you the life that you've ever wanted you know like the life that you've dreamt for yourself but also it's like being parasocial is like a double-edged sword honestly because to me like as a girl from slovakia like i was really parasocial with like the arianas and, like, the Beyonces and the Gagas and, like, and it honestly really helped me.
38:03The Miley's, like, it really helped me growing up and, like, not being where I wanted to be and, like, if there was a tough situation at home, like, I had a place to go to. Always, yeah. So I actually love, like, being a parasocial figure to people because I'm, like, this is something that I needed, so I get to be that for people that need it. But also sometimes it does affect you when those people start to, like... I feel like they have some sort of like deciding power in your life. Right. That's when it gets really tricky. Yeah. Because I also can relate to what you were saying. Like when I was a kid, like I would go to these pop stars as like those were my worlds.
38:42Right. Like I feel like I felt like I was them. Right. In a sense, you know what I mean? Exactly. Like I would watch Ariana, I would watch Taylor, I would watch Beyonce and I would like become. Daydream. Yeah, I would daydream and like become that confidence that they exuded. which is so beautiful. Like, that's why I love pop music, because I'm like, this is like, it's such a powerful thing, and I think a lot of people love to think about, especially the music that I do, like, think that it's fucking stupid, and it's like, whatever, but it's like, I know from experience that it means so much to so many people, but then, you know, there's the pros and cons.
39:21Yeah. But I'd much rather be that for somebody and deal with the cons, then not do what I do. You know what I mean? So you'll never catch me, like, complaining about it. Yeah. I'll just be like. You'll just recognize it. Yeah. I'll just be like, okay, I get it. You guys think that we have a special bond and, like, we do. But you can't decide how my life is going to play out. Yeah. And that's why you like me. You like me because I make my own decisions and I have my own autonomy. me so when you guys come and tell me how to live my life that's when things change yeah that's when things if i if you listen to the people i think that's when things stop working yeah i agree that's when like the difference between a pop star and like a true pop star is you know what i mean it's like the people that like then get swayed by the audience and like start not being authentic to themselves or you're an ariana and then you write thinking x about it you know i mean i when you say those words to me like my entire body gets covered in chills i love it i love i love what i do i love pop culture it's so fun i love pop culture it is so fun did do and so you were a big hannah montana fan huge yeah okay so was she like biggest massive of all time so what was that like when you went to the 20th anniversary did you meet miley um i didn't talk to her she just passed by me which by the way didn't even expect i would see her like up close like that so i'm totally fine with not talking to her honestly I might have preferred it because I think I would have shat myself like I genuinely think I would have like I would have malfunctioned she passed by me Sam my manager immediately tears I immediately tears I had to wait because it was photo time so I couldn't tear up yet so I was like yeah yeah that's Miley Cyrus I was like oh my god and she was like blonde and had a little bit of a bang I was like oh my god that's like Hannah Montana no she was really hannah i've seen the special twice now no no it's really fucked up yeah and so then i went did the photos i passed by her i was like oh my god like i literally like heart in my ass yeah i was like and then i went and sat down jojo siwa sat sat right in front of me so that was like also fire like i got to hear jojo's voice like singing a lot to the songs i was like this is honestly my dream come true like i'm not fucking kidding like i was like and she that girl was meant to be a star i don't give a fuck like everyone was singing along singing along to this is the life but you could just hear this is the life like jojo's voice like it fucking cuts through like she has a voice she does she has a voice she does she's Jojo she's Joelle
42:15bitch like I was so hyped I was sitting right behind her I was like yes and without people like her what would we do what would we do and you love to watch her and that's what entertainment is about isn't it yes karma fire song karma fire song what is it um karma's a bitch betty davis fire fire cover she covered it and brought it to the new generation now the new generation knows betty davis you heard her through the whole crowd it was palpable i think i think if i sat on the other side of the theater i would have heard her but like genuinely like like it was because i'm saying like she has a voice like there's something she was meant to be a fucking star and she can dance she can dance no more jojo c westlander i'm i'm sick of it like she's a she's a personality and she figured it out she found her niche bows and raspy vocals yeah i'm like and what would we do without her like it really like really what would we do without her what would you do with all that free time make you smile yeah doesn't she make you smile it's true she's she's everything to me like whatever so jojo was sat right in front of me joelle joelle joelle and um i just like balled through the entire thing because i just love miley and it was so emotional and i was like i can't even believe that i'm like in in this theater like like being invited to this like i really grew up thinking that hannah montana was like some slovak girl because they dub it over yeah so so i was like oh i thought that she was just Slovak.
43:56Oh, oh, oh, sorry. Oh, they, when you watched it in Slovakia, it was like. It was in Czech, but it's like Czechoslovakia used to be like, we used to be girls, like we used to be together. Right. So I was just like, oh, she's like from a neighboring country, like she's like down the street, like down the block. How would she say sweet niblets? I don't remember actually, but I like didn't know that it was sweet niblets for like the longest time. But yeah, like to me, that's who she was and that was my introduction to being a pop girl. And then my older brother was like, oh no, honey, she's American.
44:29And I was like, oh shit, I have to learn English. And that's how you started learning English, right? Yes, it is. That's crazy. And so to me, it's like, again, parasocial, but so needed. When my parents were fighting, I would turn that shit all the way up, blast me some Hannah Montana, and learn English in my AirPods pods because I was like I'm gonna be that one day like it was it's genuinely the catalyst for my career and for my life and for what I love to do how did you learn English by watching Hannah Montana would you like so I basically I found out through her that they were speaking English so then I switched it to English like on on TV and then I started watching all of her interviews and then I genuinely would just watch everybody's interviews I would do like I was I was eight when I was like, okay, I have to learn English because I had a whole plan.
45:25I was like, I'm eight years old. I have a couple years to learn English by 15. I'm going to fly out to California. I like looked up the address of the Disney Channel headquarters. I was like, okay, wrote it down. I was like, period. I'm going to audition during pilot season. I was like, why the fuck do you know what pilot season is? Like you're eight years old in Slovakia. It's like so strange. But I was just like, I had a whole vision. I had a plan. So I was like, it's now. Like the time is now. I have to learn English and so I was like okay so I was watching her interviews I was watching Ariana's interviews I was watching um Beyonce interviews like Gaga and then um slowly but surely like I honestly don't even know what happened I think one day I just realized I had the subtitles on so I could read in slowback what it meant but I think one day I was just like wait I just understand.
46:18Like I was like, it's also because you're eight. And your brain is still developing. So it's developing with that. It's like a sponge. You know what I mean? Like I was like soaking it all up. I mean, in a sense you lived with them. Yes. Like I, it's all I would do. And I would like, then act like once I realized that I can understand, I was like, let me try talking. And so I would like see them on Ellen. And so I would like, sorry. No, I mean, but i would just it was a moment it was a moment in time it happened we can't pretend that we can't pretend that it did okay on fallon like i would sit in my room and i'd be like yes jimmy like whatever like i would act like i was being interviewed and then i would like hear how they're saying their words i like mouth it with them i was like one two jimmy fallon and like the generous I was like that's like that was my thing and then within a year I just could speak English it was really strange if you ever need a check you should really reach out to Duolingo I think that they would really give you the thing with Duolingo is I don't think it works you don't think Duolingo works at all I think it's fake news tell me more because I'm pretty sure Manny is trying to learn Spanish through Duolingo right I think it's fake news as somebody who's learned an English really well like people sometimes don't know that I'm not from here I think the only way you can learn a language is just like what I did like you need to like immerse yourself you need to be watching movies in Spanish I mean Manny's phone is in Spanish now good that's what she should be doing but I don't know if Duolingo is doing that work for her I'm like it probably keeps her accountable like it's like you need to do it right but that's really the only way she should honestly go to spain not that i want you to lose her no i i would leave with her i would i would go with her got it that's my girl got it girl so you guys should just go to like spain or you know like south america and just like figure it out and figure it out because she wants to learn spanish i think that's the only way really what i was gonna ask you was because when i was watching not to bring it back to hannah montana but when i was watching the special I was like so many of these songs really to me like stand the test of time and I don't know if that's the writing if that's the composure if that's Miley or if it's all of it but like I was like listening to this is the life so good and I was like because I remember when I was a kid and my dad uh would hear no a lot he would listen to the climb as like a 50 year old guy and that's when I realized that like Miley was very universal and like her delivery and appeal and like I thought the climb was kind of the only example of that.
49:03But then when I was watching the special and I heard this is the life, I was like, yeah. It puts things into perspective. Hold on tight. The hold on tight line really gets you, huh? Hold on. I mean, when she sang it, like Sam will tell you, I was bawling. I was like, oh, my God, because these songs, honestly, when I heard them as a kid, I didn't know what they meant. Not one bit. Because. But you're not supposed to. Well, you didn't know, but I really didn't know because I didn't even speak English. So I was like, this is the wife. Like, I was like, I was like, really, like, I was like, off my rocker.
49:40Like, it was like, it was really sounding like a foreign, I thought that it was like music language. I was like, oh, this is just like what you do when you sing. This is just like blah, blah, blah. Blah, blah, blah, blah. Yeah. So I was like, okay, but now I listen back and I was like, these songs are so A, well written. she was singing down and performing and selling as a 12 year old like she had it in her to be like this is the life like yeah as a 12 she meant that shit she meant it i'm like wow like what a what a prodigy you were to be able to do that at such a young age it's so good is that your favorite hannah song no i kind of love um um oh my god what is that one that like sounds like a britney song kind of like oh not it's actually not the one that i'm gonna get this no no no no but that's a good one yeah i like i like life is just a party so come as you are like i love everybody's rocking never get your guitar yeah which one is that louise i don't know Everybody is rocking like a Oh yeah My favorite Is the climb Just because I feel like that It will always like Resonate with me like I was Really depressed in a car with her And my tour manager Matt And I was like so depressed And I had this moment Where I was thinking about like the next thing And then the climb came on And I looked around You cried.
51:13And I, well, no, but I was like, I looked around and I was like, but once I get to that place, I'm going to think about the moments that this, these moments. Right. Right. Because it really is not about where you go. It's about how you get there. You want to know the craziest part? My boyfriend's dad made that song with her. Shut up. I know. I know. Shut up. That's really like when my boyfriend told me that I was already like, ooh, like you are so sick. Like I want to be with you. And then he was like, my dad made the climb. I was like, oh, it's wraps. I'm in this family. I love it here. Isn't your boyfriend a producer as well?
51:57Yes. Okay. Jackson Shanks. Shout out to him. Yeah, I met him outside of Pache once. Yes, you did. You did. I was like, do I know you? He said, mm-mm. And I said, totally got it. Yes, he told me. He told me. He was like, he thought he knew me. I was like, maybe he did. I don't know. He looked weird. He looked so familiar. He's just like hot white guy. Yeah. Yeah. They all kind of look alike. How'd you guys meet? Our producer set us up. So he signed to Blake Slatkin, who's executive producing my album. And so I had just gone through an ugly, ugly breakup. I was like four months into it or like three months out of it.
52:39I was just like, oh, my God. like i'm over this guy but also i met him on hinge i was like i'm not ever gonna be on hinge again like i'm not going there i'm not going on fuck ass raya like i'm not doing that shit so i was like where am i even gonna like meet a man and he was like you should just get set up by somebody i've always been set up by people and i was like well why are you talking about it instead of doing it like come on set me up and he sent me up with my boyfriend and now we've been dating for almost a year happy almost one year thanks that's amazing thanks it's actually it's been he's been so sweet and um so silly yeah he's lovely very kind he's very kind very kind and we don't make music together because i said no yeah except when it's not scary like i love when somebody like collabs with their boyfriend and then it's also like a test of time like it like once they're out of it Like, I just love the whole thing.
53:37I honestly. Yeah. I honestly would want to one day. This is my, like, big plan. One day I want to, like, collab with an ex on a song when we're broken up. And we're, like, getting hella ugly on the song together about each other. So it's Silver Springs. Yes. Yeah. But I think it was just her singing. Right. Like, I want both POVs. Oh, like, at each other. Like, you know somebody that I used to know? Yeah. Like that. yeah but like at each other I love like how you're so open and honest about like your dreams and being like I'm gonna get this because you have got you are getting it yes but a lot of people are so like scared to say what they want and then when you send people when they say what they want can get like so like well they're never gonna get that so I think it's like super cool for like young girls to see you be like i want this and i'm getting it i think that's the vibe i think also like there's a lot of things that i want that i haven't said like i would love to take care of my mom one day financially and that's really a big goal of mine like all this like success whatever is really like for me to do that one day so it's like and obviously i love singing but it's like there's things that like i think people don't know that are like way more personal things where I'm like, I mean, it's clear.
54:58Like I'm trying, I'm fucking popping my puss on stage. I'm trying to sing all the songs. I'm trying to hit all the notes. Like you can see what I'm trying to do here. Like I'm not hungry for it. Yes. Like I'm not going to act like I'm not. But there's also like a lot of like human ness and goals that I don't like necessarily talk about that much. But it's like, why would I not say that I want it when I clearly want it? Like I wouldn't be doing like little club shows where I'm like belting my heart out and like dropping into a split and like doing a back bend and like whatever if I didn't want it.
55:30I also think there's this like inherent thing with female musicians where the world thinks that they need to give it to you. Do you know what I mean? It's like you have to be like humble and like gracious and not say what you want. Whereas like a guy can get on there and be like, right. I'm the best. I'm the baddest. I'm the best. I'm the best. And I think it's like when the males like it's very gaga of you to get up there and be like, this is what I want. Well, because doesn't everybody want that? Yes. And that's the gag is you think like there's some artists that like don't care about it. Everybody cares about it.
56:07Everybody wants to sell an arena. Everybody wants to do it. And it's not like it's a bad thing to want to be successful. Like to me, that's why I, again, loved Beyonce growing up because she was like, I always wanted this. But she also shows you how much work she puts into it. Like I've seen the Homecoming movie. 13 times. Seriously, I've like like and I think who else is doing that? Like Zara Larson is also doing that right now. And like she's been somebody that's been working on it for so long and she's finally fucking getting her flowers. God bless. And like for good reason. She's so good at what she does.
56:46And I think that's, I think essentially it's like if you put in the work, not saying that you want it feels like stupid. It's like, so what am I like putting all this work to like not get anywhere? Right. No. And I think honestly for a lot of men, they don't have to put in that much work to get there. So maybe that's where like, like, and then they're the ones that get to brag. It's like, okay, like, what are we talking about here? Like, I'm just so confused. Yes. But anyways.
57:21I need to give the world's biggest shout out to Poppy and every single person on that team. And me, I love you so much. It is incomprehensible how much I love you and your entire team. the Jake estate. Like I felt like a prom queen. Like I really felt like a prom queen. It was really fucking awesome. And thank you guys so much. And like every room I went to, I could grab a poppy soda. Like it was awesome. It felt like the soda fountain in Zoe 101 when they like pour out that drink blitz. That's what I felt like. Everything was perfect. Every room was so thoughtful. Everyone on that team was so incredible to be around.
58:12Me and my friends had the best time. I'm the most anxious host and you guys made it so that hosting a big group of people was so enjoyable. And on that note also, thank you, Poppy.
58:29And on that note, thank you, Poppy, for sponsoring tonight's episode. Poppy has been my favorite soda since the moment it touched my damn lips.

I know me and my friends are looking at booking.com right now to book our summer travels. As you guys know, when I was on tour, Matt literally used booking.com for everything, every single city we went to. He would just type in because Louise has a different preference. Manny has different preference. I have a different preference.
1:00:23And we always found somewhere that met every single one of those needs and that is all because of booking.com so find exactly what you're booking for at booking.com booking.com book today on the site or in the app can we can i ask you about your album yes i guess right how's it going my album is going so good i'm actually so excited about it i'm actually yeah well thank god um no i so with this album my big um goal was just to make music that i would want to listen to and i know everybody always says that but with my ep i think everybody everything was so like i was almost trying to catch up to the momentum that had come my way because i had zero support from a label for a good chunk of the first releases like i was indie i had just come off this documentary where I very publicly got rejected from being a part of Cat's Eye.
1:01:27It was just like a thing. And so I was like, okay, I got to keep putting shit out to prove something to people. And I think those were also some of the first songs that I've ever written. And I had to put them out right away. And so not written, but made. Because you wrote that one song in the documentary that I loved, by the way. Dream Bitch? That might have been one of my first songs that I've ever written. It's called Dream Bitch, right? I think so. I really loved it. And I was like, I need to ask her if she's ever planning to put that out because I really was moved by it when they were playing it.
1:01:56I am not planning to put that out ever.
1:02:00Okay, got it. Oh, great. I'll find it online. Yeah, you can scroll down on my TikTok. But I always loved songwriting. I just, like, never was in the studio and, like, made a song. And then as soon as I started making them, I started putting them out. so anyways all that to say the ep as much as i think those songs um you know they served a purpose at the time and got me to where i needed to get i don't think it was like the most authentically me yet like sound yet and also like i don't think they were They're not necessarily songs that I listen to, honestly. Like, I really wanted an album that I was like, I want to play this every day.
1:02:48And I think that's what these songs are for me. Not to shit on my old songs, because I hate when artists do that. Because those songs can mean so much to so many people. But I think to me, it was just like, I don't think I was like quite there yet. And it wasn't completely, my taste wasn't refined yet. But that's okay. Yeah. And hey, I think like this album, it's more refined, but probably my next album will be even more refined. Like that's how it goes. Right. So with this album, I just, I really love the songs. I listened to them. I was listening to them all my way here. It's really, it's really girly.
1:03:26It's really fun. I think my EP was like a lot of like messaging and like there was like a lot of like, this is what it's about. and it was like there was a lot of like like I needed to take a stand on some things and like there was like a lot of like like like I was just like this is my message right but that was your message at the time yes yes that's how you felt at the time and I did this time there are songs where I get very vulnerable but I also like explore like love and like you know just feeling hot and then also feeling heartbroken and etc so i think it makes me a little bit more human instead of i think my ep was such a response to what had happened on the show and like what the people and the the people are saying about me and like my first experience of being exposed to like an audience this album is just like me fucking around and being a person which i like more you know i'm so excited so i i really really am so excited and i can't wait to perform it everywhere.
1:04:32Yeah. I'm really, really happy with it, honestly. I'm so happy for you, and selfishly, I'm really excited to listen to it. Not selfishly. Please listen to it. Please. I'm so excited for you. I will say, I don't think you're giving yourself enough credit for how vulnerable those songs are. They are very vulnerable. And I think you really should give yourself more credit for that, because it's not how you feel right now, but it's how you felt then, and you were really honest at a time where you could have hid away and I think that was something really cool and something people really resonated with it's true I actually it's true I did eat actually you're right you're right you're right I mean it's just hard when you're an artist and like now I'm so out of that where I'm like because they're also like the only seven songs I have out so I think now like the people that have listened to that EP I think they might expect something from the album that's kind of similar and I just I think I want to make it clear like I'm a person.
1:05:31And, like, that was something, the EP and the messaging of that was something that was pressing to me at the moment. But overall, like, I have had more experiences than that. And, like, there's also more to me than just, you know, everything that that was about. So, I mean, I don't know. I think I'm going to, like, get a lot of new people listening because it's, I think, a lot more, I would say, relatable. It's like a general audience. Which is really good. Are you still working with Alex Chapman? No, not on this album. But I love Alex. I love Alex. He did what? Sex on the beat? Yes, he did Sex on the Beat.
1:06:08I love Alex. Yeah. He's a key and I love gag. Yeah. I love gag the party. Oh, that's his party that he puts on. I thought gag was a person for a second. And I was like, who is that? In LA? Yeah. Yeah. I love gag. I would have been like, okay, great. Me too. I love him. What are you therapist about today? I'm a therapist about my ass hurting. From dancing? Mm-hmm. And my workout the other day that I saw you at. My ass hurt. It was leg day for me. Leg day. Yeah. My ass has been hurting so badly for the past few days. I can't sit down straight. You need a massage. Yeah, but I'm also rehearsing, so it's like I can't really get a massage.
1:06:52Like, there's no time. I have zero time to do anything. But... I like literally have to sit down like this. You're sitting like as if you just got a BBL and you're back on the plane. Do you know the people that like go and travel to get BBLs and they have the BBL seats and they sit like this? I'm on the Turkish Airlines flight. Yes. From my BBL appointment. Have you seen the BBL seats? Yes. Is there something? It's a sight to behold. Yes, but that's what it is. Whenever I'm sorry though, I feel like, oh, like at least I moved. But I just, I'm like, there's way. But you move a lot. I move a lot.
1:07:31And I also, like, literally today I woke up and I, like, immediately the first thing that I did, I felt pain. Like, I was like, immediately I went, I was like, ow. And I was kind of pissed because I was like, this is going to be the rest of my life. Like, you never stop being sore. Like, when you work out. No, but you should take care of yourself. You should find, like, 30 minutes in a day. No, no, no, no, no. But it's genuinely like right now because we're like rehearsing for the tour. I have to like cut vocals for the album. And I'm trying to also like I had to have therapy yesterday. Me too.
1:08:07And I was just screaming. Like screaming. I was like screaming. That's really good. It felt good. I left and I was like, I feel better. She was like, well, why don't you write a pros and cons list about them? And I was like. Word. Okay. So I wrote a pros and cons list and then I called him after. and I was like, I just talked so much shit about you during therapy. Here are my pros and here are my cons. You're my favorite person ever. Wait, that's amazing. It was pretty awesome. And then he was like, he tried to come back at me. I said, uh-uh, uh-uh, you're gaslighting me. He said, well, did you tell her about it?
1:08:37I said, sure did. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. What is he, a straight man? Yes. When a straight man, a straight man always think that they're eating when they're not eating. I told him I was sad yesterday and he said, just feel better. What? Why didn't I think of that? Why didn't I think of that? I said, I hate when you say that. Why didn't I think of that? Thanks so much. Thank you so much. Thanks so much. Straight men just have the audacity. They really do because they've never had to worry. They've never had to worry. They really don't. Everything has been quite easy for them. And I've said this to my boyfriend too.
1:09:08I was like, you have, like, you guys just need to fucking, like, you guys need to struggle. Especially when a straight man is hot. It's unfair. Unfair. And somehow my boyfriend is also funny. No. That's not fair. It's not fair, and it's tough sometimes because they really have the audacity. So he's funny, straight. Talented. Talented. He has it all. I was like, do you understand who you're dating? I was like, I'm from Slovakia. Like, I'm not supposed to be in this bed right now. Right. I'm supposed to be in Slovakia.
1:09:41You did say you wanted to try Kocas. Yes. And that wasn't from me. No, no, no, no, no. She saw them. Do you like sour? Yes, I love sour. Okay, here. These are the sour gummies. They're great. These are the non-sour. So wait, it has no gelatin? Yeah, they're vegan. Wait, should we do ASMR? Yeah. Do you want help?

And I don't see anything bad. And, like, I just, like, really, like, aligned with, like, the company's, like, morals and, like, their, like, the way that they view life and, like, and I know that sounds silly, but, like, when I met with the team, like, the way that they viewed the world was, like, very similar to, like, the way, like, I want to, like, approach the world and, like, it just really was kismet at the end of the day.
1:11:46And it worked. And now we're working together. This is so good. I also only ate a bar, and this is my, like, real first food of the day. No, they're fire. It's really good. They're fire. I could eat this entire thing right now. I'm so happy. We have many a pox. And there's a unicorn. Mm-hmm. We'll send you a big box for your tour. Yes! Yes, for your rider. Yes! Wait, I'm actually obsessed. No, they're good, right? Like, they're like fire, fire. If you go to an AMC, you can get them at AMC. Really? Yeah, so have you seen Project Hail Mary yet? No. Hey, if you go to see Project Hail Mary. Wait, which one is that?
1:12:21Because aren't there like two Hail Mary movies right now? No, it's just that it's that big. So you're probably thinking that there's two. But like everybody is talking about it. And like I was like, okay, I'm going to go to the movies. And I saw it last night. It's the one with Ryan Gosling. Yeah, and I was very moved. Really? Because I was not gagged by the billboard. I keep seeing it. And he's like, it looks like a Marvel movie. No. So there are elements where it can be confusing, but you kind of just have to go with it. Would you agree? Yeah, it was fantastic. Really? Like, I was so, I was, I was, I like cried.
1:12:58I like, a few tears were shed. Like, I was very moved. I was very, very, very moved. Have you seen Hamnet? Yes. Oh. Yeah. Oh. Oh. Oh. That one was deserved, to say the least. It was disastrous to me. I was like. Yeah, it was guttural. When she, like, that whale she lets out when her son dies. Oy. Oy, oy, oy. I've never seen anything like that. I was like, I feel like I'm watching a documentary. That's how I felt. During that moment, I felt like, do they know the cameras are rolling? Yeah, I know. I was like, I forgot that they're acting. That was the first time I met. And that little kid acting down.
1:13:32Acting down. Yeah. It was so good. I watched it in a movie theater, and I was like, I wish I honestly didn't, because I wanted to literally go like, ugh. Like, I wanted to, like, let out a whale. Yeah. Like, I was like, oh, my God. I wish I saw it in a theater so but instead I had to be like like I was like shaking yeah any other movies you've seen lately that you love what are you watching right now um I never watch anything cause I actually lie I started to watch a lot of a lot more movies this year but usually I would be like completely bone dry like I'm not watching anything interesting kind of and it was a really bad trait because I think obviously movies are a great outlet for like inspiration or whatever but I just like I never like shows too much of a um too much of a commitment i'm a i'm a show guy it's just that if i watch a show i'm so obsessed that i'm gonna need to binge watch it yeah yeah i can't do that you don't have the time i don't have the time and so it would be it would be detrimental it would be detrimental to my business if i started a show like i can't do it and then movies i just like never got into it for some reason like i was like i never never in my head i'm like oh like i should watch a movie but this time I did.
1:14:40I watched Virgin Suicides. Have you seen it? Never seen. Really great. But it's great. Really great. I watched Girl Interrupted. Also never seen, but it's been on my mind lately. You said because I remember when I was 15, I cut micro bangs on accident and I posted a thirst trap on TikTok and somebody trying to make me feel better was like, oh, you kind of resemble Angelina Jolie in Girl Interrupted. And I was like, okay, I should probably watch that movie. Do I think that I resembled her? No, I think they were lying to me. That's a great compliment. But it was a great compliment. At the time, I really picked my spirits up.
1:15:14Okay, maybe I'll watch it in bed tonight. I'm not really drinking right now, so I think I'm going to lay in bed, smoke a joint, and watch Girl Interrupted. Honestly, you should. It's a really good movie. What else? Moonrise Kingdom. Have you seen? Have I seen it? So good. What's it about? It's like, I can't even explain it to you. You just have to watch it. Moonrise Kingdom. Why does it sound so familiar? West Innocent. West Innocent. Coming of Age. Yeah. Oh, no, I have not seen that. So good. I've seen Moonlight. I haven't seen that. It's great. Budapest, Grand Budapest Hotel. Haven't seen that.
1:15:44Another Wes Anderson. I really got into that. Maybe I haven't seen Wes Anderson stuff is what I'm thinking. You should, you should, because it's really nice to look at. Okay. It's awesome. It's like kind of strange. Like it's whimsical as fuck. You know what I also recently saw that I was like, I really, really, really, really, really enjoyed this was Train Dreams. Oh, okay. I've been actually wanting to watch it. It takes a...
1:16:14Not again.
1:16:19No, this happens. What is this? Oh, it's my fake doctorate. No, no, no, no. Why does that... Oh, and the fake plant. It's okay. You handled that gracefully. That fly said. You handled that really well. You handled that really well. Moving on from movies. Should we get into the tell me what's wrong? Wait, yes, but before we do that, you need to go watch Hoppers. Hoppers? Oh, I've heard. Hoppers is amazing. Wait, I've heard of this. What is this? Animated movie. You need to watch it. It's awesome. What's it about? Like the environment. It sounds kind of. like animals right like the environment but honestly like i don't even like it's kind of like avatar like it's kind of like avatar but pixar about the environment it's pixar yes sold it's awesome sold it's like the first pixar movie in a while that i was like this was brilliantly done meryl streep is voicing an act she is yes she's voicing a character i might be wrong but i don't think i'm wrong you're not no right you're not Meryl Streep, Dave Franco, voice and a character.
1:17:34Oh, I love Dave Franco. Yes. Amazing. Go watch it. It's honestly funny. I giggled. I laughed. I almost cried. The animals animation is so cute. It has everything. Okay. I'm going to try to convince my friends, instead of going out tonight, that we should go back to her house, get high, and watch Hoppers. I think you should go... See it in theater. I don't know if it's on streaming. It's not. Not yet. You have to go to the theater. You are a little cinephile.
1:18:01he said it's not do you have a letterbox um no i don't i actually do i lied i do you know what keep that i do keep that shit close to you i actually keep that shit close i actually do have a letterbox but do i really like i mean i haven't logged like the last 15 movies i don't log anymore i used to and then i stopped yeah i did like three movies i was like oh my god and I wrote like an essay for each one and then I forgot. Right. You are well-versed in movies. I've been trying to. Okay, do you know about the Tell Me What's Wrongs? Yes. Also, we do have to FaceTime Emily and say hi to her. Yes, we do.
1:18:35Because I love her down. No, she would not forgive me if I didn't do that. It makes me really happy that you guys are still really close because that moment at the end of Dream Academy where you go in and comfort her was like really something special. One thing the show gave me is Friends for Life. Like Laura, Megan, Emily... like this yeah those are my girls truly that's beautiful yeah we are we are heavily involved and it's hard to make actual friendships when you're fighting for the same spot right but but i knew that i wasn't gonna make it into the group so i was like oh whatever you felt like they had their people and i was like this is not the place for me but really it was just like you can't like honestly all of us were so different so it's like you can't compare each other.
1:19:22Yeah. And we only had each other. Like, the girls had to stay tight because we couldn't tell anybody about anything. Right. You guys got in so much trouble that one episode. Yeah. For the Finstas. I was like, really? Really? They came in. We have never seen anything like this before. Lies. I thought somebody brought a gun into the dance studio. Like, I was literally like, what could have possibly happened? And it's a Finsta. Like, who cares? Like, we know what, like, what are you talking, whatever. I'm not going to get mad at this, but we got two weeks off. Oh. And the girls were so shook. They were like, oh, my God.
1:19:59And I was like, girl, you think we just spent a year and a half training. You think that they're going to fire all of us and rehire and train for two more years? Yeah, not happening. Spend all this budget? Not happening. I'm taking my two weeks off, honey. I was like, I was tanning. I was like, yes. Oh, you had a great time. Finstagate was great for you. Finstagate was awesome. I broke up with my boyfriend during that time at the time. Like, it was like I had shit to handle. Like, I was like, I have a business. Watching that, I, because, like, for those that haven't seen, like, the way they set up that episode, they march into the studio.
1:20:34And they go, it's giving, like, I've never yelled at a girl like this in my life. Like, I was literally, like, you would think somebody, like. Died. Died. Somebody died. You would think somebody died. And it was us posting on Close Friends. And, like, God forbid. I have some trauma to share with my friends over here Okay It was almost like they didn't It was like they didn't want you like Interacting or like finding friends It was weird The whole It was weird They were just scared that like People were gonna somehow like hack us And like find out information about the project And whatever Which like Yes like did we break the NDA?
1:21:07Yes Like Yes like Like we did break the NDA But NDAs are so This and that these days They're They're a suggestion They're a suggestion Really? In the day of the internet, NDAs feel like a suggestion. Just kidding. To all the brands that I've worked with and that I had to sign NDAs with, they're not a suggestion. I follow them wholeheartedly. Right. Okay, let's do this. Yeah. Do you know about these? Yes. Okay. My best friend met this man abroad, and after only a month of knowing him and being back in the States, he's moving here, and they're getting married. Oh, come on. Like, girl is engaged currently one month.
1:21:45I want to be a good friend and support her because I get it. The man is hot. But I also know from experience it's a bad idea no matter how you shake it. What do I do? You shake it. You shake her. Yeah. You shake her and be like, wake up. He's trying to get a green card. Oh, my God. So true. Yeah. He's trying to get a green card. I can't believe that I didn't think of that. I'm trying to get a green card. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Yes. Girl, run. He's trying to get a green card. It sounds like the beginning of, like, an investigation discovery doc. You need to be a good friend and you need to be like, absolutely not.
1:22:16You need to have like an intervention set with her family. Like it needs to be like hella serious. I think some, like that is a situation that calls for intervention. Like you're in psychosis. Intervention. You're in psychosis. Like we, like, I don't, like you got it. Like this has got to end now. I've had friends that get matching tattoos with their boyfriends after two weeks and already I'm like, it's almost intervention time. Oh, that's me. That's me. I made TikTok edits to my situationship last night. TikTok edits. It was about you. You made them? Wait, yeah, where's my phone? I'll show it to you.
1:22:52I'll show it to you. It is so bad.
1:23:03You are an insane person. I really am. I'm enjoying it here. No. I'm enjoying my time. That's insane, though. Um, but like, yeah, I mean, it's intervention. Listen, does it harm anybody? No, but her situation is harmful. She needs to get out. But now. Right now. Watch like an episode of intervention. That's what I prescribe and like sit her down or like show her like a scary investigation discovery show. There's like plenty of that. I feel as though you're right. I feel as though you're right. That's what I would do. And I would, and if she's like, I can't see it, I can't see it. I'm prescribing I've never yelled at a girl like this yeah that that episode of America's Next Style Model yes I've been dating a man who is an identical twin for about 8 months and now my sister has been getting really close with my boyfriend's brother I was a little weirded out by this but obviously it's fine but now she is also beginning to dress a little like me should I sound the alarms is she trying to copy my life it's honestly a little creepy Sound the alarms.
1:24:08I'm always about sounding the alarms. You guys need to speak up. You guys need to sound the alarms every time, please. Please. That's scary. It's giving a single white female. Don't know what that is. Okay, it's a movie. Like that. Exactly that situation. So that's your prescription. Yeah. That's our prescription. That's our prescription. Well, I think also, I think it's fine. I've had to like talk to friends before where you're like, hey like love you sis right this is freaking me out a little bit really you've had people like copy your stuff yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah and how do they take it when you have those i've never met someone that's been able to have a conversation like that how do they take it well the thing is is like here's the thing it's a really hard conversation to have and to lead because like you don't invent things but you do invent like the mixture of things right so it's like okay like i didn't invent dressing like this and like i met this person but like dressing like that and like dating this person that's like my combo and you're like drinking my smoothie a little bit too much like like you're like like is are you know do you and i think a lot of the times you won't get what you want from that conversation because that person was is not gonna go oh yeah i've been copying you but at least you got it out but you got it out and they know that you see it and so they're being clocked and that they know you need to just like kind of assert your your dominance a little bit oh i love that to be a little bit like i needed to hear that honestly you need to go a little bit like uh-huh this is who i am like a little like yeah this is it yeah Like, I see you, these.
1:25:52These. These see you. Yeah. And they're here. Eyes. Eyes. Eyes. Another set. Another set. Spiritual. Wow, good for you. Thanks. Good for you. And good for you because you need to do that, sister. Yeah. You have to do that. They won't stop. There's this random Twitter account that has been tormenting me and my friend group for the better half of a year. Like, just some random account commenting nasty shit on all of our posts. Block them. Fast forward to last week. I'm cleaning my apartment. I wanted to help my roommate out. So I went into her room to take out her trash and saw that account logged in on her laptop.
1:26:29Where do you find these people? Guys. I just went through them last night. Oh my God. Sickening. Yes. That's giving Catfish the documentary. That's my gossip girl. Wow. Well, obviously. Oh, you better come up with the nastiest confrontation of your life. You need to, like, this is the time to be petty. Yeah, hold it to yourself. Come up with a very clever way. Tell all your friends in secret. But you need to, like, record proof. Yeah. I really hope you recorded proof. Yes, because this person is going to lie. Be like, what? That's not true. I was just on their account. Bam. So record everything.
1:27:14Bam. You need receipts. What I would be doing is like something real nasty. I'd be like, let's have a movie night. And we all watch a movie and then like airplay the movie. And then it's like that. Oh my God, you're so much better at this shit than I am. Like I would just be like, I think immediately as I would see that, I'd be like, what the fuck? And I would just like, whatever. That's crazy. But that's so much better. No, I mean, but that's some real nasty petty shit. I think. She deserves it though. If she's been tormenting you, really, that's psycho shit. That's insane. That's psycho shit.
1:27:48That's psycho shit. That's like no empathy. She needs evaluation. No, you need to extract those people out of your life immediately. But yeah, isn't that great? That's crazy. That's what I would do. That's my prescription. Be nasty and petty. Like really put your heads together and be like, how can we get this bitch? and you really need to like bulletproof receipts. And I don't think you should show them. Like I think the accusation needs to come first. You need to give her a chance to like. Oh, I have so many prescriptions for this. I'm like so ready to just go for it. Do it. Salt Lake City, Monica, Reality Von Teese season.
1:28:30You have to watch that episode. Have you ever seen Real Housewives of Salt Lake City? No. Okay. So basically, there is a character named, there was a character. Sometimes it's hard in reality television. It's very, because people view you as a character and like, it's. See? Yes. See? Yes. But you're not, you're a person. So there was a housewife named Monica and she ran a smear account called, or she ran a gossip account called Reality Vontice that tormented the girls like in earlier seasons and in the, I have full body chills. in the final episode of the season. Have you ever heard receipts, proof, timeline?
1:29:09Yes, yes. That's where that's from. Wow. And they all sit her down at dinner, and they're like, we have everything. We have your perfect formula. Receipts, proof, timeline, screenshots, fucking everything to prove that you are a liar, and da-da-da-da-da-da. So I would prescribe that. Then I would also prescribe that song. What's that Cardi B song? Pretty in a Petty as fuck. Hmm.
1:29:33well you would play it as they're like as they're confronting her about it and then to make yourself you have a soundtrack for it and then to make yourself feel better at the end of the day like you know like listen to mean girls by cat's side because god bless them god bless them because God bless the mean girls. God bless the sweet girls. And yes, God bless even the mean girls.
1:30:03Because at the end of the day, God bless them. But before you bless them, you have to get a little nasty. I prescribe... God, I don't have like a... Those all just came to me in like a real... Like a real... Rush. I think I prescribe the nastiest, filthiest reading. You also need to call out her fucking stupidity to be logged into the account. Right. Like, you are stupid. If you're going to be mean, you can be stupid, huh? Uh-huh. That's like what, like. Right, right. So, like, the fact that you were both is crazy. Like, you should feel like a fool. You're mean and stupid and an idiot? it yeah you're a fool you are you're a fool yeah fool is such a nasty nasty if someone sat there and said you are you are you are a damn fool you're like i am i'm prescribing you a damn fool but can i say please like follow up with code word adela what happened because i need to know just say this is from the adela episode like please i need to know and don't lie don't get up on the internet and lie and say that this was you i would love to know i need to know what happened this is kind of upsetting because you get into these situations you never get the result sometimes sometimes i do but in this case i really yeah sometimes they'll come back like they'll like at a live show they'll be like that was me that submitted that yeah it's really full circle it's really awesome wow that's awesome that's epic like when i was doing i did a like a broadway show for three weeks and like when i um i would sign playbills during stage door and they would And this girl was like, you called me during the Glenn Powell episode two years ago.
1:31:47And I was supposed to give you a birth chart reading. Here's your birth chart reading. And like that's those moments that I'm like, life is really beautiful. Wow. Yeah. Impact. Impact. Your impact. Our impact. Our impact. My psychotic ex broke no contact to tell me his dog died. I do not want to speak to this man again, but I also love that dog as my own. They're doing a sort of ceremony for the dog on the weekend, and he invited me. He was genuinely the worst. And I'm worried if I go, it's a surrender to no contact, and I do not want to do that. But I feel heartless otherwise. What do I do? You honor that dog in your own way.
1:32:27I say fuck the dog. Really? No. No, but that dog, but you can look at old photos. You can have your own ceremony. You don't need to have a ceremony with your ex. Here's my thing. if you go to the ceremony and then you still keep ignoring him and like don't give a fuck about him i think that's worse somebody once told me one thing that's worse than hate is apathy not caring about him at all like the fact that if you don't show up you might seem a little bit bothered still okay if you show up and you do not give a fuck and then you just leave and still don't talk to him ever again sis show up in all black show up in all black yeah dress down for the dog's funeral i have the like little net shades on shades this dog meant so much to me wear the like ariana grande mini dress that she wore to aretha franklin's funeral uh-huh yeah my girlfriend never wants to go out like ever this was one of the things i liked about her when we started dating but now almost four years later We're in New York starting a new chapter, and I'd really like to get out there and have new experiences.
1:33:40She genuinely won't budge and is super passive aggressive if I go out anyways. That's the issue. We just got an apartment together, so don't tell me to break up. Sorry. Oh, she said don't tell me. I mean, I got to say, I don't like going out either, so I guess I would be the girlfriend in question. I'm not in my going out era either. Yeah, so. Well. Well. i think maybe just like find a way to make her enjoy it for me personally i don't like going out when it's with people that i don't enjoy so you need to maybe like really like introduce her to some really nice people and like really like make sure that they're people that she would fuck with and then you can be like wait like they're going out to a bar like you know the people that you like right maybe like maybe this isn't black and white and it's not like she doesn't like going out i like going out maybe it's i like going out i'm with people that she doesn't fuck with yes do i fuck with these people yes do we have the same values yes what's going on here really if you value your girlfriend you're gonna you're gonna listen to but also like we don't know her so she might just really not like leaving her house for some reason this person said that that's what they liked about their girlfriend at first so something obviously shifted and it's strange that it shifted when they moved to new york the city of going out when i go out i'm one i go to new york but you like this about her in the first place i mean girl these are the cars that you've been dealt with from the start she was real with you from the start i gotta say maybe that she was you Oh, they liked that she wouldn't go out.
1:35:22She doesn't like going out. Oh. I read it wrong. Yeah. Maybe you're the issue. Maybe you've changed. Maybe you've changed. And then it's like, okay, well, does she have to change with you? Or, sorry to your new apartment, do you guys have to break up? I know, and that's what they said for us not to say. But if you're telling me don't say break up, that means people in their life are saying break up. and the people in your life know you better than me and jake so at the end of the day we're telling you to break up the people in your sorry sis you shouldn't have gotten that apartment i agree how long has it been he said four years long long i need some advice on how to be more punctual oh i feel like you will be i feel like you are very punctual no what oh you're wrong wow you're giving punctual i i am giving that but to some things i am punctual like if there's a meeting i'm punctual but if i know that i have a session and we have like a full day i will be possibly 15 to 30 minutes late that is punctual still in la yes uh 15 minutes late traffic things are weird there's a restaurants give you a 15 minute grace period for a reason.
1:36:41Okay, thanks. So maybe I am punctual. You are punctual. Yeah. I need some advice on how to be more punctual. I love my job, but I can't seem to ever be on time. I just can't seem to wake up earlier than I already do. And even when I do get up earlier, I somehow still manage to run late because I'm so scatterbrained. I would love any advice on how to fix this because I really don't want to ruin my relationships or job over it. See, this is the thing that I wouldn't be late for, like rehearsal when it's like timed, like or like a performance like you need to be on time i need consequences there's yes there needs to be consequences for you i fear yeah maybe maybe like sis like i don't know like what are you scatterbrained about like what is what is avoiding something like maybe i don't know lay out your outfit the night before i don't like for me it's like the one thing i'm always on time to is like like I have like a workout every morning right that I'm like I know I'll get yelled at if I'm late because other people are ahead of me yeah so I started to think like like these people would like if I was 10 minutes late like I'm like oh wait like this person like if I'm doing an 8am workout this person got up early and they made it there so why shouldn't I be able to make it there and the thing is like if it's your job too it's like all of your colleagues are doing that you can't be the only one you kind of just have to do it you kind of just ripping a band-aid off it's your only job it's like you need to just go honey like figure it out i say find it i would say find it last some music in the morning put on just put on your fucking clothes yeah like put on your clothes and leave you cannot well honestly sometimes music makes me oh really distracted distracted yeah and like everything takes a little bit longer so honestly remove everything that you're distracted by, literally pick an outfit the night before, get your bag set up, you wake up, you brush your teeth, you put the outfit that you picked out, you take your bag, and you just go, honey.
1:38:41Go, go, go. But also, maybe just try to wake up a little earlier. Just open your eyes and get up. Get out of bed. Just go. Just go. Just go. Just go. Do you have an iPad? Maybe one alarm on your phone, one alarm on your iPad. You have to get up. You have to get out of bed to get your alarm. Have you ever heard the song Jump by Blackpink? Yes. Wake up to jump. Wake up to jump. Yeah, I think that would get me out of bed. I used to wake up to Be Alright by Ariana Grande for like three years straight. At the end of the day, it's Ari forever. Are you excited for the Eternal Sunshine Tour? Am I excited?
1:39:17Oh my God. I said clear the space. I said... You don't understand. I mean, I don't have my tickets yet, but... Neither do I, but I'll figure it out. But I'll figure it out because I was like, I'm not going to win that Ticketmaster War. Like, it's just not happening. I really am, like, I've been to every single one of her tours that she's ever done. Like, I'm like, this is it for me. I am going to cry. Although I am interested in seeing what it's going to be like, like, seeing Seven Ranks performed. I think it's going to open with intro, end of the world extended. Okay. And then what? And then that's, and then, like, that sets us up for, like.
