Talk Podcast To Me

Talk Cowboy To Me

Courtney Gilroy

Got to hangout with my friend Damian. We throw it back to our first meetup at Frontier Town and then talk about our friendship and our rollercoasters of personal development ever since. Feel the nostalgia as we revisit old memories and then laugh when Damian tells us about a Tinder date go hilariously off-course. Wrap up with us as we give advice on self-confidence and the art of resilience, whether it's the power of 'faking it till you make it' or learning to bounce back with a stronger stance. If you're looking for a blend of witty banter and wisdom, we're here to lead the trail ride. So, hitch your wagon, tune in, and let's journey together through the wild terrain of life's shared memories and lessons.

Speaker 1:

Hey guys and welcome back to another episode of Talk Podcasts to me. Today I have a very special person that has been around me for years like what? Eight years now. Eight and a half, yeah, eight.

Speaker 2:

and a half.

Speaker 1:

This is Damien, also known as Cowboy. If you've been in my life for a very long time, me and Damien met eight and a half years ago at Frontier Town, which I go camping with my family there since I was like six. Do you want me to tell the story or do you want to tell the story?

Speaker 2:

I wouldn't kind of do like a perspective, perspective. Alright, let's see should I start.

Speaker 1:

Okay, so I was newly single this summer not this like eight and a half years ago, and I go camping and again, I've been going there since I was six, so I've never seen this kid there. And I'm in this little leather shop that they have and like, mind you, like Frontier Town has like I don't even know how to explain like has like a little like the Western theme park and Cowboy over here did all the cowboy things and if people know me, cowboys, you know. Anyway, so I was in the Western like, I was in the little leather shop and I was talking to a friend of mine that I've known years, and I just see somebody running up and down on a horse and I just stop and I'm with my mom and I'm like who the fuck is that? And I'm like what's happening? Again, I'm like newly single.

Speaker 1:

I was in a relationship for like two and a half years and I'm like I don't know how to fucking talk to people, like I don't get myself out there. So my mom's like let's go get a picture with him. I'm like this is so embarrassing. So then I come out and you, I think you just got off the horse or you were, I don't even remember. I think you just got off and you were just like walking him and I was like, hi, can you give me a picture? And yeah, here we are, eight and a half years later, still in each other's lives. So yeah, let's hear your perspective.

Speaker 2:

So, from my perspective, what were?

Speaker 1:

you doing.

Speaker 2:

We had just gotten this new horse and I think his name was like Comet. At the time. Of course, his name's kind of changed like owner to owner, but I was called Comet and Comet. I was trying to work with him to get his character more in a line, because he was like Western pleasure. She was all like kind of crooked and crazy looking so I was just trying to get him like leveled out. So I was just doing laps and what she's talking about is there's like a sand road in the middle of a town and then on either side of the sand road is like little shops. So she, you were inside one of the little stores on the side of the road that I kept riding past and so I was like in the zone and I was like super concentrated on this horse and then I get off because it's a hot day. I've been working for a while, so I'm getting them off, walking them around, cool them off. Then all of a sudden this like really pretty girl starts walking up to me.

Speaker 1:

I'm like, oh no, I smell like a sweaty horse and, mind you, it was like two o'clock in the afternoon and you guys are in like long sleeves, dead of the summer, like it's July.

Speaker 2:

It's hot there so yeah, I was wearing like a leather vest.

Speaker 1:

I don't remember that. I have the picture. I'll go, I'll pull that up.

Speaker 2:

Sweet deal, sweet deal, and yeah. And so then she's like, can we get a picture together? And I was like, yeah, yeah, we totally do that.

Speaker 1:

And then people that I've known that were working there were like wait, no way, like you have to go talk to her and yeah, go ahead.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, yeah, my boy Joey. Joey was new you from previous years and this is my first time meeting you. And Joey pulls me aside like puts his arm around me. He's like listen here, damien, you're 21. Okay, you're 21 years old. Meantime, I'm like 18. You guys like don't mess this up, man, you're 21.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, okay, I was turning 21 that summer. Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, no funny times.

Speaker 1:

And then, yeah, we hung out a couple times on that vacation and then that that same summer I went back for my 21st birthday with Alyssa and me and you were just like texting a lot and I remember you were working and you had no idea I was coming and I just pulled up while he was working. He knew I was going to Ocean City that year and, yeah, I pulled up on him while he was working.

Speaker 2:

He was just like, yeah, yeah, no, it was just a fun time. I mean like, oh, so we?

Speaker 1:

didn't play the magic sweatshirts. Yeah, I swear this is the only one I packed. That was glow, that I was like, alright, I'm gonna wear. And then I went to go get lunch and I walked in and I go, we're gonna wear the same sweatshirt.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, yeah, well I was. I wore this one because I was like, of course, you gotta show support to glow commando, of course, and so, but this is one of my favorite sweatshirts, like, honestly like it's the comfy sweatshirt. It's so comfy and like. Literally any time I wear it I get like at least three compliments on it.

Speaker 1:

But I feel bad for you if you wear that on a date and then if somebody looks up, glow commando and then see me.

Speaker 2:

No, I've felt that exactly.

Speaker 1:

You can't do it, should you tell the awkward story that's happened to you? Well, I, there's this thing. I just know the best moments went to text Damian, and when I say the best, the worst for him always like does not fail. And obviously we're eight and a half years later. We developed a very great friendship. We've had a lot, a lot of stop talking, talking, whatever.

Speaker 2:

Yeah it's been like this it's been an ebb and flow.

Speaker 1:

I don't know it's like.

Speaker 2:

One of the things I really appreciate about our friendship is like it's like a never changes. Yeah, it's consistent, but it doesn't. It's like I don't know. It's just, I feel like it's healthy.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, it moves with time, but it always comes back around, like when we both like need to have like our friendship the most. But anyway, I I don't even think we like talked for like a little. This is like what we'll do, like we'll go like a month or so without talking and then like randomly just have like a bunch of shit that we just like want to catch each other up on. So I texted him one time and I guess he was on a date and go ahead you could share that.

Speaker 2:

No, it's happened more than once where, like, I'm like catching the check for a couple of drinks I've been having like a lady friend or something like that, and I'm like flip my phone over and I'll be like Courtney G, I'll be like flip back over and then it's like who's that?

Speaker 1:

Yeah, nobody, it's nobody at all. Don't, please, don't. You're gonna hate what you saw. So yeah, you want to talk about growing up with horses and stuff?

Speaker 2:

Yeah, for sure, for sure. I'm a huge advocate. If you can do your best to grow up around horses, it's I don't know. I feel like it just really teaches you a lot about responsibility and like taking care of something and like safety, and it makes you a little bit tougher and like I don't know, it's just cool. It's a bunch of fun stuff like that.

Speaker 1:

She's also very reckless and it freaks me out, like, remember when you guys, at Frontier Time, you guys started doing the well, am I not the most steer riding right?

Speaker 2:

Steer wrestling.

Speaker 1:

No, you're doing something. You wrote a steer, I thought.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, they did like the steer riding and stuff like that, but they were pretty tiny.

Speaker 1:

I was still like you're a psycho, a little male. Another trick riding. That's what got me where. I was like are you kidding me? He's like he'll like text me. I was like that summer it was like a year after I think we met, or was it that same summer, I can't remember.

Speaker 2:

Then I started trick riding.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, was it.

Speaker 2:

See, I've hit my head a lot, so my concept of time is in my head.

Speaker 1:

He is terrible at concept time. I'm gonna say it was either that summer or the year. I think it was the summer after, I don't even remember.

Speaker 2:

I don't think it was the same summer. I think it was a summer or two afterwards.

Speaker 1:

Yeah where you were like, oh, they're gonna get me to start trick riding. And then I'm like watching him jump off of a horse and then jump back out and I'm like, what are you doing? Why do you want to do this? You're like it's so much fun. I'm like, are you insane? And he like thrives off of it. It does.

Speaker 2:

Well, you asked me if I missed boxing earlier and like I just I like things that like just take all of your concentration. So it's like one of those like I need to pay attention or I'm gonna fall off this horse, or like I need to pay attention or I'm gonna get punched in the mouth.

Speaker 1:

You just also thrive off of Putting yourself in danger. It's fine, yeah, it's like so. Another funny story. So what? Okay, talk about what you went to college for.

Speaker 2:

Okay, yeah. So I went to college for there's a long name for I'm trying to remember the name of it so I'm minored in film, but then I got a bachelor's degree in communication arts with a track and media production. So like all these microphones and like the lights and all that kind of stuff like how to set it up, how to shoot it correctly.

Speaker 1:

Like all the kind of stuff low-key, judging, because I literally just have it to my phone and my ring light on and he's probably like what is this production right now?

Speaker 2:

No, I'm so. I was judging a little bit, but not in a bad way where I was like I don't know what I'm doing, so like those are like called like lavalier mics or lapel mics, and I was like do you have any of those? You said you had those, but you call them the things.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I said a little mini mics and thingies, but I was like, but that's like the cool part about you.

Speaker 2:

So you're like the thing, but you're still taking action.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

Isn't it? And like that is like so much more important than like actually know in the name of it. So like the fact that you got your own get up and you're doing the podcast and you have guests on, you have equipment, like it's really, it's really awesome.

Speaker 1:

So and I told you about this.

Speaker 2:

I've been telling them I want to a podcast for like probably like a year or so, now that I want to do it again and then I think I didn't ask you to help me like whatever, but then if you know me and you know I'm, just like, I'll just do it, I'll just figure it out, because I hate asking for help, especially like to inconvenience any of my friends or anything.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I think I told you about it like or wasn't my last visit here? Did I already start it? I don't think I started it yet. I can't talk. Concept of time.

Speaker 2:

Very, very bad. I know it's been in the works for a while. I know it's. I talked about it, yeah and then I know it is recently started happening.

Speaker 1:

So that's his concept of time.

Speaker 2:

It's like actually it was an idea, took action. No, it's a thing.

Speaker 1:

So yeah, so he also like working at frontier town, like you have to. You have to like act. So he did a lot of acting and like theatrical and One thing he's taught was I said that when I do this podcast, I want to bring people on that help me into who I am today. One thing he's taught me Is to just authentically be myself, like not caring who's around, who's judging you and all of that. Some of the skits that he would do I just sit there. Really, I would never be able to do this in front of people and he just always took that outside, even like when he was, no matter who he's running it, whether he was just meeting someone or like whatever. He just always was authentically himself and is never changed. And I'm like it's very important to to even surround yourself with people like that, because I feel like a lot of people Mold to who they're around and change themselves. Do you feel like I've changed a?

Speaker 2:

Little bit, but like, not not in bad ways, like I do think that like, like I don't know. I think like part of maturing is like Like you're a person and you have good and bad attributes about yourself and then as you mature, you kind of level those more and more out and you, like, kind of like, can lean more into what makes you who you are In a good way, versus, like, the things that you think I'm less scary now.

Speaker 2:

Let's get. I think you've got more of a hold. Yeah, a little bit, at least, a little bit like. Sell everybody like I don't know, just like the definition of like. Crazy, yeah, yeah crazy, as you took it out my mouth. It's like you like. The thing is like a move, don't move. A T-rex can't see you if you.

Speaker 1:

Just give him, guys, oh my god, what's happening?

Speaker 2:

Yeah exactly exactly one of those like but no, it definitely got like easier and easier to talk to, less like, oh, and then now I'm gonna, it's more like you like Wait tell the story about what.

Speaker 1:

I went to go visit you at work at one point and some girl that you used to talk to Also visit you that same day. That's exactly that's exactly what you're thinking about too. Yeah, but you're in plain this. So I visited about work. I mean, again, I go camping there for like two weeks at a time and it just don't happen to be the one day. Right, bring like my niece and nephew in and we're like all going to say hi to him. Yeah, yeah, girl that he used to talk to, we're both literally walking over to him at the same time and I just know him and I see just look of fear on his eyes.

Speaker 2:

Well, it was because you're a very strong personality. She was also a very strong personality, and so, to like, just not really know either of you were gonna show up that day and then all of a sudden, like you were both literally walking toward you, yeah. I think I dipped out to the side. I think I stepped around.

Speaker 1:

No, she said hi to you and like pulled like you had to wear the things that. Oh wait, no, that was me. I pulled the back of her.

Speaker 2:

Oh yeah, and I didn't know, I just yeah, so it was like her, me, and then I was walking up behind and I pulled your like things with the spenders.

Speaker 1:

Things, whatever. And then he was just like huh, like I just felt fear leaving his body. It was like let me just walk away from this right now because I don't know what's happening and I don't want to ruin your shot of whatever's going on over there.

Speaker 2:

It wasn't a shot, it was a little bit of closure.

Speaker 1:

Closure anxiety. I don't know what.

Speaker 2:

All hate you that was like oh, and perfect timing from Courtney.

Speaker 1:

All the time. What I tell you never fails all the time. Another good story. I'm trying to think there's so many.

Speaker 2:

There's one that always plays like rent, frame my head and like. So, like anytime I'm putting on a bathing suit, or like swim trunks, like I'm putting them on, I just always crack up because like I like, make sure they like fit now. So I remember I went to the water park with you and your family and my swim trunks, like I guess, didn't fit.

Speaker 1:

Literally Like what are you wearing? Why are you wearing this? What?

Speaker 2:

she says you literally like it was just like such a such a moment of decisive, like this is what you need to do. You're just like pull your pants up. There's children around? I guess there are. This is like now every time I like.

Speaker 1:

Um, when he worked like he would if he got up early whenever he would just like meet us there. But he lived like 20 minutes from where we went camping, so he would just leave some stuff at the campground and at that point like again it's july and like he's sweating all day. So like you lost weight and there's Brody upstairs barking. So yeah, you lost weights. You had a pair that I guess were from like the beginning of the summer or whatever.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, yeah and you came and I was like what are you doing? Pull those pants up right now.

Speaker 2:

And you're just like, oh, yeah, it was one of those like it was like an adamanty moment like I'm making Is this what Shane feels like I'm tired. Yeah, no, no, no, it's another one I'm trying to think.

Speaker 1:

There was like a really funny one. Oh, this is my personal favorite. So, okay, damien went to school for production, all that. He's also very creative and just you help me a lot with like some like creativity and like whatever and just like feeling things out of like what I need to do and all that. So nobody knows this. But now people are going to know I was in casting for a TV show. So I was in casting for a TV show. This was, I want to say, like 2020. The show did it get picked up? Clearly, because I was not on a TV show, but they were going to kind of for my knowledge they don't tell you what you're trying out for, but you try out for something.

Speaker 1:

And also another thing people don't realize or know years ago, when I was in like seventh grade, I made my parents take me to a casting thing, for I think it was Disney, it was something and I got a call back and then I decided I was like I'm not going to do this. And my parents were so mad because we spent like six hours in an audition thing and yeah, and I was just like you know what? I'm not going to do this, I don't know what's going to happen. So that was kind of my motivation to just get myself out there and like, do things, get out in my own terms, like and not have production or whatever. Like I was a kid, I didn't know anything. So I was like I'm not going to do this.

Speaker 1:

So now, years later 2020, one of my friends reached out to me that was in a show and she was just like producers are asking me for friends that would be interested in coming on a show, would you be interested? They say that we hang out, whatever. So I was like, yeah, sure. So I had an interview and during the interview they kind of just pretty much, which we knew talked about, like they pretty much feel out what character they want you to be and they kind of like go from there of like what they feel, like they like for me or whatever. I am a Jersey girl, have my own business. I'm definitely a very strong personality. I got crazy eyes, fairly, so you know I was either going to play a bitch or something. Also, again, they don't you kind of just go off of like the interviews, so like the questions they were asking me was just feeling out like how I was going to be. I didn't want to play any of those things. I wanted to play like that nice girl who owns her own business and just, I also think of it like if my clients are going to watch me on TV or my niece and if you're going to watch me on TV, like I want it to be like a good character and like somebody that somebody looks up to and is not afraid of, because I've worked very hard for my job, that I don't want anything to take it away from me and who I am as a person.

Speaker 1:

So with the interview, the first interview, they asked about your exes and they asked. They asked if they called any of your exes, what would they say about you? And I said I mean they would all say good things. But again they just kind of like wanted to feel like me out, and they were like all right, what are you into? And I'm like I love horses, I love sitting. They're like, what do you do for fun? I'm like I ride horses and I you know like have campfires and I just like to chill. Like I really don't go out and party, like it's not me. If you guys think I party a lot, I definitely don't.

Speaker 1:

I'm very. I'm the most introvert and extrovert. I feel like once I'm out too much, I need to be home. But things that like make me me like I just I love horses, I love like being surrounded by mountains, campfires and just like chilling. Like camping is like my favorite thing, like I look forward to Frontier Town every year because that's just my like home away from home. So I was going to play Jersey girl that belongs down south. Again, they I didn't know what I was signing up for. I didn't know if they were just like putting me out there for other things, so that was what she liked. She's a great. You are a Jersey girl that belongs down south, and you should be down south, blah, blah.

Speaker 1:

So then they get into your exes again and then they're like what's their names and all this? And I'm like sitting there like why would you want to know any of my exes names? Like this is so weird. And I'm just like I don't want to give that to you guys because I just want their identities to be like to themselves and like one of my exes is a cop and then another, the other two I just I did not want to even remotely open that door to reach out to them, to be like I have to give your names for production. So then, as I'm in the interview, I'm like I could reach out to someone and I really only and I would just say like I really only dated like one person and she's like well, what is he like?

Speaker 1:

So before even talking to David, before even talking to him, I describe me and him, our friendship. You know, I just started saying like, yeah, we dated, but like we did it, but we did it. I don't know, and you know it was just like he's a cowboy and like I just fully went in on a full story and I'm like, oh shit, I have to talk about him. So then she's like great, I'm going to reach out to you. If you have a second interview, she goes with the second interview. We need pictures, they need pictures. So I'm like, okay, great, this kid has no idea, but I just signed him up for this or whatever it is. So also, too, they start asking about him. They're like, is he single? And I'm like, oh my God, they're going to put me on like X on the beach or something, or they're going to put me in something where they're going to need him to come. I'm like this is just all the things that I'm going through my head. So she's like, yeah, we need pictures of him. You know he's a cowboy. Like that's great, like this is like a different thing, like whatever.

Speaker 1:

So now I hang up and I'm like and I don't even think we were talking at that point and again nothing. We never not talked and like we're mad at each other and things. It was just one of those flows of just not talking. So I text him, I go, hey, can you call me when you get a chance Because I have to talk to you about something. So he's like, okay. So he calls him, like how are you? What's going on? I was like, are you single by any chance? And he's like, yeah, like why I go? So I might have signed you up to pretend to be my boyfriend for a TV show. And he's just like what? So then I had to tell him the whole story and him having his production background. He goes, okay, like this makes sense.

Speaker 1:

And then we just kind of started like feeding off of each other, like, if you know, they wanted things. They said, oh, and, by the way, they need pictures of us now, like like, currently, I need like pictures. The only things I really have were like you with my niece and nephew and just like a picture of you. Like we didn't even have any pictures together. So I was like I need a picture of you playing up the park, cowboy, somehow around like horses and whatever.

Speaker 1:

And I was like um, can you meet me at the rodeo this weekend? So there's a rodeo in Cowtown, uh, piles Grove, right, I think it's well, I think so I just know it's Cowtown, okay. So, um, it's like equal distance to both of us and I was like, can you come meet me there, or whatever? So he met me there and I made him put on my glow hoodies and they made him take a bunch of pictures of me. And when I tell you the definition of cringe was this for both of us, because I'm like we have to act, like, oh, this is when we were dating. Yeah, it was at this point. We weren't even talking, really, yeah, it was.

Speaker 2:

It was a little weird. Well, what was weird for me too is like, uh, I don't know if you've ever been to a rodeo, but like it's like a total ego fast, and like a whole bunch of like tough guys and like their belt buckles, yeah, exactly. And then I'm like I'm like I'm like over here recording under a tree, like trying to be all cute and couple, and there's just like pickup trucks and horse trailers and families just looking at us and I go what.

Speaker 1:

And he's just sitting here like, oh my God.

Speaker 2:

So then I'm doing it for the gram, yeah.

Speaker 1:

So then I took all those pictures and I had to send it to the casting director and I got to call that same week and she's like we love this All right. Now we got to play into this. And then they start asking about him more and I'm just like making stuff up and me and him like came up with like plots and lines and things and like whatever all of that. This is where he thrives off of this stuff and he just whatever helped me with all that. But yeah, it was. That was like my favorite story to say and that just goes to show kind of a person he is. We're doing that because it was so.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, clearly I didn't get it. I actually pulled a prank on him my last trip out here we all got lunch or dinner or whatever, and it was me, steph, and I was like take a video like of me talking to him. So I was like remember years ago when I was in casting for that show, and he's like, yeah, I was like it got picked up. They want me and you to go out there. And he was like I'm thinking he's going to be like Courtney. Hell, no, am I going down this road? He goes all right when do we?

Speaker 1:

leave. I'm like that did not know how I planned it. I was like, yeah, that didn't even happen.

Speaker 2:

I'm always down for the next adventure, though Like uh Can.

Speaker 1:

I sign you up for the Bachelor.

Speaker 2:

Bachelorette. Yeah Well, here's the thing. Here's the thing with like you can come on the Bachelor. It's like, as a dude, I would have to go on the Bachelorette. So can you go on the Bachelorette and win the Hearts of America and then be like voted on to the Bachelorette. I feel like you don't just like get on with this.

Speaker 1:

You know, yeah, no, yeah, that's how it works. Can I sign you up?

Speaker 2:

You can sign me up, but like I'm gonna do it Okay.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, say. You say I don't know it's, I don't know, I guess I like or even better. Why don't I just take your Tinder and invite like 15 girls out at the same bar that you're at, and then we'll just do our own.

Speaker 2:

This is where, like, my trifling nature comes out and it's funny you say something about that because like I almost got like three free tickets to a concert yesterday and I was gonna invite two different girls like to me to come with me and then like see, like when they met, like if there was like one that was like oh no, I'm still down, or if they both leave, or if I'd have like both go with me, I just wanted to see how like it would go down, like on a social like experiment way.

Speaker 1:

Oh my God, I hope that you're not dating anywhere. Now that's gonna watch this podcast. Be like um. It was like gonna be one of those girls.

Speaker 2:

There's a chance, there's a chance.

Speaker 1:

There's a hard chance. I just won't call you for the next month, so you don't have my name.

Speaker 2:

Papa, no, it's all right, it's all right.

Speaker 1:

He's gonna be tagged in all of the things. Wait, can you show? So he also does. You're a comedian, right? I'm like he does I don't even know how to say it, so he does comedy too. He's a comedian. And what is my favorite story? Can you please share the favorite story of mine?

Speaker 2:

Is it the date?

Speaker 1:

In the date. The date Walmart.

Speaker 2:

Okay.

Speaker 1:

And this happened. This actually happened, so this this is a true story.

Speaker 2:

This is uh. So this is when I was living in Baltimore not recently, but probably two years ago.

Speaker 1:

Okay, he's in Baltimore now. He moved from Utah. Yeah, yeah, he moved from uh Ocean City to Utah. To back here. To back out to Utah To back out to Utah to back here To Baltimore, yeah.

Speaker 2:

Which is, and I was living in Utah, I was working at a ski resort and then a uh country club in the summertime, so I mean just unlimited golf.

Speaker 1:

He's the definition of like free spirit and just like goes with the flow and it's like, oh, I want to do this, so then just does it. So you do it too. You're doing your own way, like cause. You always say that I do, I just like think about something and I do, but you do it too. You just stress about it a little bit.

Speaker 2:

I just yeah, yeah. Well, like I don't know, I got like the uh, like the thing where I don't procrastinate, but like I have the alarm going off, like I need to procrastinate, like it's you got to do it now, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1:

And then you stress yourself out, and then you shut everybody off, and then you just like get into your doing it, and then you're like all right, I did it, and now you're back around.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, yeah, absolutely. I mean, wait, sorry, side track Back to the semi dramatic tendencies. But yeah, this is.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, hey, this is why you need to be in like theatrical.

Speaker 2:

Yeah Well, I tell people I'm a closeted theater kid.

Speaker 1:

Like no 100%. I don't tell people I was a theater kid.

Speaker 1:

I wait. Another thing too. This is also a funny thing. When he was out in Utah I was like I just miss miss ocean, mish mish, I miss ocean city. And like. I texted him, like when I was in Texas, cause a song came on that reminded me of frontier town, so like I don't know, it's just like child of memories, it's just like love it, like whatever. So I texted him another time a while ago and I was like I just miss frontier town, like can you recite one of the one of the like scenes that he's like out walking his dog, just saying one of these scenes and it's like that was another moment where I was like people just yelling on the phone and then after I go, I didn't think about you walking and just saying these things, yeah.

Speaker 2:

If you know the shows, it makes more sense to yeah.

Speaker 1:

Maybe I'll post one of the shows, cause we definitely have videos of it, probably.

Speaker 2:

My favorite one is the what is it?

Speaker 1:

My favorite one Can Can Show, can Can Show, can Can Show is my favorite.

Speaker 2:

He has to act like a drunk coming in.

Speaker 1:

That is such a good one. He has to act like a drunk and comes into the Can Can Show and disrupts the Can Can Girls, and that is the one that I'm like. How would you do this? How? And it is so funny.

Speaker 2:

It's just one of those like that. That whole place was just like the coolest bizarre dive bar a tight bond. Yes and like just imagine like the coolest little show in the middle of nowhere that you just would not expect it was. It was just such an odd specialty act. I just loved it.

Speaker 1:

It was so good. Yeah, that was my favorite, that was your favorite too. I would say, I like that one, that one and uh.

Speaker 2:

I got to be very loud.

Speaker 1:

Oh, my God, that this is the. This is the story I wanted you to say. So we didn't see each other.

Speaker 2:

This is a couple of summers ago, and he just so and he knew I was coming and I was like oh I'm coming to a frontier town like this same week, blah, blah, blah.

Speaker 1:

But he didn't know I was coming into the theme park and he just so happened. So they had like a stage coach and you robbed the stage coach, take the gold, whatever, and like my niece and nephew love it and my niece and nephew just know him as cowboy. And then when they saw him like out of that, like coming to our campground, like we're a sweatshirt and jeans, they're like I'm confused.

Speaker 1:

Like where's cowboy? Like what's happening. So this is the summer where I feel like my niece and nephew like started to like understand things more and they were like, oh, like I know somebody like grabs the train or whatever and like the stage coach and like this is like we were like hanging out again and go ahead with the. You remember, you remember stage coach and someone.

Speaker 2:

Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, go ahead. So the stage coach driver. So the stage coach goes through the woods right and it's like a horse-tron carriage and you have people inside and you can't see who's inside. So you get up on there and start like asking them for the bag of gold and you like join a gunpoint. That's what that is. But so the stage coach driver, I'm walking up to go around the stage coach and he's going. Dude, there's a hot chick in the stage coach. He's like so hot, like oh God, okay, all right. So now he was about to like go walk, like not.

Speaker 1:

He was about to like get off of like doing that. He was about to like go back into the town and do a show. He's like, all right, I'll rob another stage, but whatever, because he was like pumped about this, he's like, oh my God, I can't wait.

Speaker 2:

I'm always down with thugs. They're pretty girl and then. And then I'm like all right, so I jump on the stage. I'm like where's the Courtney? What are you doing here?

Speaker 1:

He was like all excited. He's like, yes, I'm going to see this girl. Like great, I'm going to fricking shoot. My shot Jumps up and we just lock eyes. He goes Courtney and just gets on a character real quick and he's like really, and I'm like hi, and then gets back into character or whatever. And then you. So then he actually just like fully gets into character. And then this is where he gets like dramatic with it.

Speaker 1:

So my niece was probably like three, maybe I don't even know. I'm not even going to ask him because conscious of time is terrible for him. But my niece was like little but enough to like understand. And my nephew was like fully into this. So he's like you could keep the gold, but I'm going to take the girl. So he takes me. He took me out of the stagecoach, put a rope around me and then like brought me into like the woods or whatever. So then like the stagecoach left, I'm there, I'm just there. The stagecoach left me, I'm in the woods with him. So my niece goes to my sister like wait, are we ever going to see her again? And they're like yeah, and they're like waiting for me to like come back around and meet him or just dying laughing or just like catching up whenever I was like I probably like I think my niece and nephew probably like think I'm like really stolen right now and I don't want to scare them too much.

Speaker 1:

So I come back out and he's he's just walking with me and I'm just roped around.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, the last round he came out with like the gun. And then what was cool too is Luke had a cap gun at the time.

Speaker 1:

Oh yeah, he tries to shoot him yeah.

Speaker 2:

He like comes to the rescue. He's like look, oh my God, oh my God. Well, dude, you're so cute. All right, chill, chill man.

Speaker 1:

They're like I'm supposed to be in time, was that this? Oh, this is the summer. So I, I cracked myself up. I really do. I made him jump into a pin of balls. I was like you won't do it and I think I think we were out. We were definitely out. You were the sober one. I clearly was not, and I was, was I not? I don't think I was. You know exactly what I'm talking about.

Speaker 2:

I do know an underturdle.

Speaker 1:

We're a green turtle. Is that your green turtle? I was like you weren't.

Speaker 2:

I mean, I mean like, not like trash, but like we were tipsy. Yeah we, it was a drug because remember we met like that famous drummer or something like that.

Speaker 1:

Oh my god, yeah yeah, you're on a high of that. I'm like I didn't know. I didn't know who this is. I don't even think I knew him.

Speaker 2:

I don't know yeah something like that. Yeah, I don't know, but it was cool.

Speaker 1:

I was like so yeah, we were just like walking around and it was like pitch blackout and they have like a bunch of like horses on the thing and then they have like bulls. Good thing you don't work there anymore because you have to expose us, so I go, you won't jump into that pin of bulls, that goes. Slap a bull on its ass and chase it around and he's like really, courtney, I'm like, yeah, you won't do it, and I'm like hyping it up because I literally do it every morning.

Speaker 1:

I'm like you won't do it right now and I was like, whatever, we made a little bet, I lost the bet and he did it yeah, yeah, there's a lot on the line. I was like I'm not fucking the hell yeah, I feel like this is the easiest thing. I do this every morning, yeah well, what I was.

Speaker 2:

Have you ever seen the movie Wildhawks? Yes, remember this scene where he is like slapping. He's like well, I've never seen the bull get slapped twice.

Speaker 1:

Yes, and you did that, yeah, well.

Speaker 2:

I was like kind of afraid. I was like I've done this in the day time like at night time. I don't know if this bull is gonna be like what? Yeah, he's stick with the hell, so like that was playing in the back of my head is I was like, alright, worst case in there, I gotta jump this fence quick.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

Actually I scared him more and he's scared me, he was like asleep and I'm like pow, that's like what, like the cow tipping or whatever.

Speaker 1:

he's just freaking, woke this thing right up. Yeah, I'm chasing around and I'm just like sitting like, oh shit, he did it. Oh shit, I lost the bet. Alright, I was going back to it. I hop around. You know me the date that you went on with the Walmart.

Speaker 1:

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, that's my favorite story. He told me this and I was like I was dying, like I'm like you need to tell this in your sketch. I'm like this happened, this actually happened, yeah, so this is a true story. I was, so I, so it was a Tinder date and first of all, tell them to get off Tinder guys, because Tinder's like you just meet people to meet people.

Speaker 2:

I kind of I don't know like it's. For me, tinder is more like chat roulette than it is like a dating app.

Speaker 1:

I heard you're a chat roulette, like.

Speaker 2:

It's more just like I wonder what's going to pop up. Yeah, I don't see it with the edge of like who's going to be my next thing? It's more like I'm bored. It's a Tuesday.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

Like I like meeting new people, like that's kind of more what it is Networking, networking. Exactly Like, legitimately like. So the girls hit me with the. So what are you looking for on here? And like, my go to line every time is like to meet new people, make connections and then they go, and then it's like this, like the easiest, like transition over, like my boyfriend except when people like me take your phone while you're not paying attention.

Speaker 1:

I just start tending for you.

Speaker 2:

I was not paying attention.

Speaker 1:

You took my phone, sat across from me and went really, yeah, but you weren't paying attention at first and I was just like yeah.

Speaker 2:

I was on this Tinder day Right, and we were. I picked her up. We were hanging out in my car in the Walmart parking lot and we're hanging out and then all of a sudden, I get a call from my roommate's mom and she goes Damien, where are you? I go, I'm in Baltimore. What's up? She goes.

Speaker 2:

A maniac just broke out of the psychiatric ward, is hitchhiking, rides, killing the driver with an axe, stealing the car, then picking up other hitchhikers and then killing them with the axe to hangs up the phone.

Speaker 2:

And so now it's just me and this stranger I just picked up in my car and I can tell that she's like a little freaked out and so, like something you need to know about me is I keep a fireman's axe in the back seat of my car, like not for killing Tinder dates, but like for roadside emergencies, and so like she hangs up the phone and he tells you he's a little freaked out because she just got word of a serial killer and I want to let her know like I can protect her.

Speaker 2:

I want to learn that she's safe. So I reach into the back of the car and I pull out my axe and I'm looking at her like I got you, I got you, I got you. And then, like she's like me, I'm like, oh no, because she's terrified. So she just picks my car door open and starts running and I'm like, oh shit, I close the door and I get out of there. And then, but like the craziest part, is anyone that? The craziest part is like now there's just a girl out in the ether that's like telling her friends and family about the time she survived a Tinder date with an axe murderer. And it's me, you know, it's just like, oh man, that is a very poetic way.

Speaker 1:

Literally the best story I've ever heard, and I'm like this would happen to you this would happen to you.

Speaker 2:

I don't always get off on the right foot. Yeah, it's not my best first impression.

Speaker 1:

I actually might be my worst first impression.

Speaker 1:

I don't even know what he told me. This story we're just talking about like worst dates that you've gone on and like whatever. And he told me this and I'm just in there and I'm like it didn't go through your head, like that split second, that there's an axe murderer and you don't know this girl and you probably talked to her, you probably matched her that same day and hung out with her, maybe Because otherwise, if it lasted a week of texting, you would have been bored of her.

Speaker 2:

No no.

Speaker 1:

No, he's probably blown up his spot. It's probably the same spot on comparison.

Speaker 2:

Maybe, maybe, but I don't know. It's one of those things where it's like it's the same thing with like sales and like something like writing jokes, with comedy, and I kind of feel the same way about dating where it's like, yeah, there'll be more, yeah, so it was like I don't know. I feel like people get very scared in relationships where they're like if I don't hold on to this, I'll never find another person ever again, and it's like there's more, there's more people out there, like if you're in a bad relationship, it gets better.

Speaker 1:

I mean, we were just in a conversation earlier and you were saying do you know, it's so crazy to me that people want monogamy and I'm like that is the point of being in a relationship. You're just with my person.

Speaker 2:

But like here's my point about that Right here we go. It's like monogamy, that's like the only thing as people where we're like one and this one, forever only.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, like we don't do that with like two or three Like we.

Speaker 2:

You know, I'm not saying like that's okay, I'm just saying like we don't do that with food, like we're not. Like today's the day, yeah, I've decided to only eat pizza the rest of my life. Like I won't even look at a ham sandwich, so my pizza doesn't get bad at me. It's like I don't know. Like I got a dog. It doesn't mean I don't pet other dogs. Like true but I don't take that dog home.

Speaker 1:

You're gonna go home near a dog and she's gonna smell that you're with another dog.

Speaker 2:

I know, and it'll make her love me more. She'll be like that True?

Speaker 1:

Is that your logic?

Speaker 2:

No, no, I'm being facetious.

Speaker 1:

I'm really gonna. This is what I'm gonna do the next time I come visit. I'm gonna tell him to come out with us and I'm just gonna invite a bunch of different people. I'll be like you guys all need to come out and then just do my own bachelor. Nah, I need your tinder for it, because it's more fun.

Speaker 2:

Well, I see, I don't, I'm not gonna lie, I kind of like the bachelor, the bachelorette, more than I like the bachelor, because, like I feel like, oh, because of a bunch of men.

Speaker 1:

Well, it's because, like you're, you're, you want to compete against another guy.

Speaker 2:

Well, it's not even that as much as like girls are more cerebral you know what I mean Like they're like more planned, but like dudes are just like bouncing off each other. Yeah, that's true, saying like the dumbest shit. Yeah, so I love the real early seasons too. Before, like dudes knew like the nation was gonna hear what they're saying. Yeah, so they're all they're just saying like the most ridiculous dumb guy logic stuff.

Speaker 1:

I just can't even imagine you be on the bachelor like I gotta compete with other people for this, like you would just be like I'm here, like and say that we like each other.

Speaker 2:

We don't, yeah, but that's my thing, yeah. It's like if I was on that show, I don't think like I would win, because I would be like, I mean, like she's cool, but like I don't know, like I don't think they experienced it like I'm here to go to Spain for free, you know, but I have to make it around at least.

Speaker 2:

but like that's what I'm gonna do. Is this like uh, it's like, do you really love this girl, like on the TV show, or are you just like no, I feel like it's all I don't know.

Speaker 1:

That's my intake. I feel like a lot of it's just like planned and like production finds out what your type is. Well yeah. And then, yeah, if I was on the bachelor right, what do you think that they would have as my type?

Speaker 2:

As your type Anything in a uniform. Literally they'd be like a postman, a cop, a normal guy, marines, like all of it. Cowboy I guess that's a uniform, yeah.

Speaker 1:

Are you kidding me?

Speaker 2:

Chaps in a hat, anything like a set, like luck, or it's like I get it, I get it. Wow, that's how you think of me, that's not how you just ask me what you felt. Your type of me. That's like definitely your type.

Speaker 1:

Oh my god.

Speaker 2:

Or maybe it's guns, maybe it's anything with a gun, is it? Maybe?

Speaker 1:

maybe I just like to feel safe.

Speaker 2:

Well, you said something earlier. You're like yeah, well, like this guy, like if we were lost in the woods, could not make a fire. To like keep this room.

Speaker 1:

Exactly that's what I'm saying. Like I need someone who, like, can make me feel safe, like if I was like stuck in the woods or something. Are they gonna carry an axe with them? Are they gonna be able to make a fire? Exactly.

Speaker 2:

I don't know about a cop, but army for sure. Yeah, I mean, but again, I don't know.

Speaker 1:

Never been a cop, never been a cop, he's just throwing out my dating history out of here, you're exposing me.

Speaker 2:

Okay, you brought my Tinder house, Like. But.

Speaker 1:

I don't even know what your type is. You don't have a type. You, just you're as go with the flow, and if I like your energy, you stick around. That's how you are.

Speaker 2:

I'm very artsy-fartsy with a lot of my things. I'm attracted to where it's like there's not really a mold as much as I'm like ooh, that looks cool.

Speaker 1:

Well, you just have some random girls come into Frontier Town. You just pretty much throw them in your life. No, no, here we are.

Speaker 2:

I do like I know that I do like girls that have more personality. You know what I mean. Like I like looks don't always really do it for me. Like there's been a couple times where, like I've walked away from very pretty women just because it's like one of those like this is nice, but like I haven't been like stimulated.

Speaker 1:

I was about to say like stimulate your brain and almost just like like push you, you know.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1:

Versus like somebody who's like I don't even know there hasn't really been. I feel like every person you've talked to would like push a new if I think I don't know. I feel like versus like if you had a girl who's just like I'm pretty and I know I'm pretty like, tell me I'm pretty.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

Then you'd be like you also can't do the whole reassurance thing.

Speaker 2:

I can do the reassurance thing I can.

Speaker 1:

Like you don't like to constantly do that though.

Speaker 2:

Sometime, I don't know.

Speaker 1:

You do that naturally, but you don't like to like, feel like that's like, you know, like you're. You like to have a friendship, that is more. Does that make sense?

Speaker 2:

No, I'm not gonna lie, I'm a little lost in the sauce. Like I like to be an encourager, so like I don't like the insurance because I like to make people feel important and like tell them like they're valid yeah, but not every day.

Speaker 1:

You know what I'm saying. Like if you had somebody who every day needed you to be like, do you still like me, do you still like me? You would be like that's what I'm saying. That could be. Probably you would be like oh my God, I'm still here.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, yeah, okay.

Speaker 1:

That's what I was saying. I get that Like because you've had that before where they were like constantly like. You know exactly what I'm talking about.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I've dated around. I've had a lot of very weird dating experiences, yeah, but I don't know.

Speaker 1:

I feel like in the end it all went to like no, but in the end I always say every person that you date and every person that you talk to that comes into your life yours, mine, anything anyone's they mold you into who you are. So you learn a lot from every person. Like I've learned a lot through you, you've learned a lot through me and we've developed a very good friendship throughout the years, you know. So it's like A very real friendship.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, very, it's one of those like, very genuine. It's like even if it might be upsetting to hear, I'm still going to say it but like, not like in a way to like intentionally hurt or like yeah. Make the other person mad, but like if it's like something that's like going on, like it's not like a we have to worry about sugarcoating it.

Speaker 1:

Oh, I understand. I will say too there's times in my life where you've put me in my place and, in the sense of like I don't know, you just like humbled me a lot in some aspects of life. Then, like I feel, like I've like thrown to you where I'm like what are you doing? You're better than this.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, no, yeah, I've definitely had some come to Jesus moments as a council, talking to you about some stuff going on and you've been like what?

Speaker 1:

I'm like stop, you're going to figure it out. Exactly it's what I was like, so it's very but we've definitely built a very I say too, like you're definitely one of my very close people in my life and like it's very important for me to surround myself I've said this like a circle full of like good people and like you're a very genuine person and like he's truly become like family to my family.

Speaker 2:

Like yeah, I love your family.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, when we go camping I he loves being around kids, so it's like me, my nephew, my niece, and then like their friends and then their other friends and at one point he's entertaining like all of them. He's like I just went on a golf cart ride with like all these kids and it's just him and the kids and I'm like take the golf cart, go on the ride, we're all getting ready. He's like I took him here, I took him here whatever, and then he was like super hero to all of them. He's like talking about horses and like whatever. Yeah, I just threw you into like hanging out with the kids.

Speaker 2:

Yeah Well, what I like about kids is they're like figuring it out for the first time, so like. I like how organic their approaches to things where they're like I don't know how to do this, and then like their best attempt is always so shameless, like there's no like am I going to be embarrassed? And then it's always just like a oh, you want to know what he taught my nephew how to crack a whip.

Speaker 1:

So my nephew, all the time, now needs to crack a whip all the time. And I'm like, oh, here we go. And he's like, do you know what I should teach you how to like whip your aunt into you? I'm like, no, no, no, no, no, let's not my eyes going to get poked out, something's going to happen. I'm like we're just not going to do that.

Speaker 2:

No, looks cool guy. He's a man after my own heart cause he's like he loves horses, cowboy stuff. He's like into wrestling. I wrestled a little bit but then I did like other stuff too. But like he's a, he's on the right track. Be a cool guy.

Speaker 1:

I love him. He's so cute, yeah, he's fun, yeah, he's like. Oh, take me horsefrog riding.

Speaker 2:

I'm like uh, every time.

Speaker 1:

I go horsefrog riding, I text David I'm like how do I do this? I forget I haven't been on so long and get like excited. He's like really so deep.

Speaker 2:

Heels down toes up.

Speaker 1:

Toes up, please yeah toes up.

Speaker 2:

I'm like I'm going over the top of the horses All right Pop quiz about me.

Speaker 1:

What? Was the my hang on. I didn't finish. What was the first horse I ever loved?

Speaker 2:

Henry, no Blaze, sorry, are you kidding so?

Speaker 1:

Blaze was a horse that was in front of your town that I loved. It was the first horse I ever loved. Henry was like the horse I used to ride, like that was my horse here that I would ride, whatever. So, um, david was like so scared to tell me when Blaze passed away and he was like I have to tell her and I don't know how to tell her. So I get a call and this is like one of the like call to check in. So I'm like hey, how are you? I haven't talked to you. He goes um. So this summer when you come and I'm like what happened? He goes, blaze won't be here. I'm like, did he die? And I was like I heard like like his heart broke over the phone for me crying. I'm getting teary-eyed right now thinking about Blaze.

Speaker 2:

It makes you feel better, though, like we did the math and like so horses really only supposed to live like 25 to like 30 years, and when he's like, well, that's an old horse.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

I think we did the math and Blaze was like 36.

Speaker 1:

My guy Like my boy.

Speaker 2:

Like if he was a human. He was pushing like 117,. You know he was an oh oh man, but he was a good boy. We used to use him for trail rides and uh, we use him for trail rides and uh, did you ever do the trail ride where he went out into the woods? And we did that? And I remember we put this like well, 12 year old girl on place and Blaze realized that he could get away with things.

Speaker 1:

Oh, and he's an asshole, yeah.

Speaker 2:

So he started like running off with this girl and this poor girl was like hold on the saddle, oh, flying on everywhere. I was like I was riding a pony at the time that was like the size of me, so my feet are like driving right down and like running after him Like I'm blazing Get out of here. I got rained in. It was just a goofy boy. Did they stop the trail riding right?

Speaker 1:

after that, I feel like they did. I think it was short. It was shortly after.

Speaker 2:

Because they used to lease the horses that I had. I don't know if you were there when they used to lease my horses, but no, no, because I mean did it maybe a year after that they stopped doing it because uh forget why. I think we got busted for trespassing or something like that.

Speaker 1:

Was it trespassing A? Little bit, no I thought it was like a light. The liability insurance was too expensive.

Speaker 2:

Maybe, Probably. Probably a combination for a whole bunch of different things, but I don't know.

Speaker 1:

It's fun.

Speaker 2:

Would you ever go to Montana?

Speaker 1:

You ever go to a horseback riding Like on a duderage. Oh, here we go. I don't know.

Speaker 2:

It's one of those things where it's like the mystique of it is kind of ruined for me Because, like I know what it will be.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

It's going to be a dusty, dusty, cold, very windy plane with not very broke horses who are they're good horses.

Speaker 1:

Like cattle, like that cattle drive, like they do, like there's some that do like horse drives.

Speaker 2:

Yeah. But, I don't know.

Speaker 1:

No, wait a minute, I'm going to get a horse going to get hot headed and I'm going to freaking fall off.

Speaker 2:

Like I would do it on like a vacation and if you're like asking if I move out to a duderage.

Speaker 1:

No, not move out. Just go on vacation to a duderage Like they have, like some of that, like four days. It's not where you would want to go.

Speaker 2:

Nah, nah, I'm not going to lie. If I was going to go on vacation, I'd either go super hot, super cold, so I'd either go skiing again or I'd head down to like Mexico or like Jamaica or something like that, because I really like fishing, I'm like obsessed with the water, I do like fishing.

Speaker 2:

Anywhere where I could like get in the water and like I don't see. I don't like spear fishing, though like with the guns, because like the fish don't know to be scared of you when you're like underwater. So there's like people like swimming, like me to you, to a fish, and you're like clunk. And then they like this like giant fishing, like that's not fair yeah. Like that's not, but like at least we're like fishing with a pole.

Speaker 1:

But remember when we went fishing and you were like you fish and I'm like it's not hard.

Speaker 2:

No, I was like super impressed and I was like one of those like I like did my own, like bait, baited my own minnow and you're just like yeah, no, because you did with like authority to you, weren't like I grabbed it and I poked it right through the eyes and you're like what? Yeah, no, totally call them far. I was like okay.

Speaker 1:

This is another thing, and this is like a year ago. This was last summer.

Speaker 2:

No way, yeah, no, last summer I was in Utah.

Speaker 1:

You took off for a weekend, came to visit your sister Okay, I was there and I was sitting and we all went fishing.

Speaker 2:

Yes, yes, I was there, I had a girlfriend.

Speaker 1:

so I wasn't talking. You did have a girlfriend. You were talking to me, I forgot. Yeah, she's getting married now Shut up.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, she's getting married. Honestly I can't say anything bad about her. She was a fantastic girlfriend and she's going to hopefully have a very nice marriage.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

I can say I hope she does good yeah.

Speaker 1:

Oh, that was really funny, Very crazy. I'm like married. You're like married scares me. I could be married, the thought of marriage scares you.

Speaker 2:

The thought of marriage scares me because, like I don't know, I feel like I'll get married like I feel like 30s. No, I was thinking more like 60s, but then I feel like the dating pool, like here's what I feel like dating pools like good, then you're like 35 and everybody's married, and then you get to like 55, everybody's divorced again, and then like the dating pool, like restarts again.

Speaker 2:

So it's one of those like okay maybe I have to get married like in the 35. So then, like I get divorced on time to like Reenter the dating pool.

Speaker 1:

Oh my god. So basically I'm gonna sign them up for the bachelorette after this no, I think you're funny. Maybe we'll see him on, or I don't know, maybe people are gonna slide.

Speaker 2:

I doubt it. I hope not.

Speaker 1:

He's. He's saying that right now because he has to say it right now. I'm just kidding.

Speaker 2:

I'm feeling it sounding like I really hate marriage. I don't hate marriage.

Speaker 1:

No, he doesn't, he's a very, he's a lover boy, for sure.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, like genuinely like I like to poke and make fun of things, but it's one of those things are like if you can't poke or make fun to something, then like is it really something like important or something substantial or like that deserves respect? If you can't Poke fun of it, like I don't know, like maybe that's the comedian you're thinking, but it's like if I can't throw a few rocks at it, it's probably a glass house.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I know like.

Speaker 2:

I wouldn't want a marriage to be like a glass house. So all right If that makes sense. I'm not so sure if it doesn't help.

Speaker 1:

All right. Do you have any advice you want to give people that are watching this of things that you've learned In your life, or our friendship, or anything?

Speaker 2:

Um, advice, I got advice for you guys, okay. So here's my advice Nobody knows what you're scared of but you. So that means the key to success is delusional confidence, because nobody knows that you're scared unless you tell them. So it's one of those like, if you just like his age old advice, like fake it so you make it, but like it's more than fake it. Just Just believe in yourself, just have the confidence to go out there and do it, and I'm a big believer in that. Once you get out there, the next right step will be apparent and it will just make sense of what you have to do. And If you get knocked down, get back up, try it again. Keep on keeping all that's about it.

Speaker 1:

That's really good advice. Yeah, thank you and follow her podcast, which I feel like other wats of this theory follow it.
