(upbeat music) - Hey, this is Taylor and you just downloaded episode 111 of Pod is My Co-Pilot, the fun escape podcast coming to you somewhat live from the Sunshine State. I'm joined as always by my co-host, I'm Tyvee Carlisle, Huffington, and also my other co-host, Rodan. - I'm the other co-host, wait a minute, Sunshine State is somewhat live, it's very spin-off sounding. - It does sound like a spin-off, hmm, where have I heard that before? - It is an homage, it is an homage to podcast long gone. (laughing) - Long gone. - It's time for the new younger generation to step up. (laughing) - The Pepsi generation, we're the Pepsi generation podcasting. (laughing) - Exactly. - Oh, on Crystal Pepsi. - Yeah. - Crystal Pepsi was the hot slot of the day on D-listed. - I saw that, that's what made me excited. - As opposed to Crystal Meth. - Yeah, no, that's, you know, Crystal Meth is, you know, so 2009. - I know, Crystal Pepsi used to be my Crystal Meth. Now Crystal Meth is my Crystal Meth. - Do you still have the bottle of Crystal Pepsi? - No, it eventually exploded. - Oh, well, did you imagine what that does to one's colon if it's Jesus. (laughing) - Well, it was after like 10 years that it finally included, oh. - God. - Oh, the bath phone is ringing. - That shit crazy phone is more like it. - Hello. - It's on a 1024. - Oh, hey. - So it's gonna be trouble. - I love you. Bye. - Was the cable of a repair man calling to confirm his appointment tomorrow? (laughing) - I love the Schwann's guy. (gasping) Sorry. - Schwann's. - Schwann is more like it. - Schwann's, I love Schwann's. (laughing) I used to have a super cute Schwann's delivery guy. Now I just have like a retired, you know, Walmart greeter, but I used to have a super super, like so cute that, you know, when the Schwann's guy would come, you know, the girls would run through the house throwing on lip gloss because he was dreamy. He was like 23 and he was like his summer job from college and he had just graduated from college and he was all, you know, my Schwann's uniform's a little too tight. Hi, ma'am. What can I do today? Yeah. I'm thinking of myself. Really? Really? I figured he would get at least a little pussy that summer from some housewife who was home. - Oh yeah. - He was reliving some porno fantasy that he saw on the dorms that year. - He was, he was a pizza boy. - How many of my fine products can I get for you? Yeah, I just, just like, oh great. He, well, he was a cute kid. - Now would you like that Italian sausage delivered to you as a footlong? - I can serve it to you hot, right, so. You know, we got off tangent. Are we going to revisit our opening or no? - Yes. - Yeah, well, let's, let's, let me revisit with you what happened on Monday with me regarding this. I get. - Because it is all about him, after all. - Well, no, no, because this, this, this, well, it affects all of us, but in particular, there's some odd things that are happening. It just seems like in the pot of sphere. I received notice via Facebook because apparently that's how podcasters text message break up with their listeners that beat me. (laughing) That B-Talk, which is one of like my all time favorite shows, it's based out of Minneapolis, that they are finishing up with episode 200 and they're currently on like 197. They're doing like three more episodes. - So they went ahead, they went ahead and went the distance. They finished at 200. - Right. - Right. - And that was kind of, you know, I was like, oh, that really sucks. And, you know, there's something almost to be said about the knowing that the final episode's coming sort of thing that it actually made me a little nauseous. - Aw. - But, you know, whatever. - And you've been talking about B-Talk for... - Ever. - Ever. - I mean, ever. - I've been, B-Talk, I talked about B-Talk on the very, very, very first episode of Pod is My Co-Pilot when it was just me doing that two and a half minute intro thing. So, but I figured to myself, you know, well, you know, one show isn't that bad 'cause it's not like any of the other of my favorite shows that are gonna be going off of the Podosphere any time soon. - Dun, dun, dun. - Not too Wednesday morning when we get a message from, you know, Michael of the Q-Cast Connection saying that they're done doing their show. - Aw. - It's like the same year that friends and Sex in the City went off of the air at the same time. - I know. - I know. (laughing) - Okay, do not all remember what I was like when E-R went off the air. - Yeah, right. - Right through the air. And I didn't actually know any of the cast members of E-R. - But that's why you needed closure with E-R because you didn't know the cast members. However, you do know the cast members of Q-Cast. Therefore, there's still a connection there. - Yeah, so I'm really bummed. I understand, you know, I've talked to Kevin and, you know, and pretty much what they said makes sense. They've got very busy lives right now and they just, they just, you know, aren't able to, they're trying to take the high road out and go out and rather than, you know, do the pod-fading thing that a lot of other shows do. So I totally get that, but it just makes me sad. - Aw, I'm sorry. Well, Kevin and Michael, we wish you nothing but love and the best and all that good stuff. All good things getting your way. - And, you know, I wanted to say one more thing about it and that was just that when we were first starting this little dog and pony show, sorry, Rodan. - As long as I'm a trainer. (laughing) - Anyway, the first podcast that really extended their hand to us as far as a, you know, hey, we're listening to your show and that sort of thing was Q-Cast Connecticut actually at the time and it was Michael and Kevin. So we would not be where we are without them. So, you know, we want to take this opportunity on behalf of Taffy and Rodan and I to just say thank you to Kevin and Michael and British John and Buddy and, you know, and just everything for, you know, all of the help that they've given us over the two and a half years, almost two and a half years we've been doing this show. - Wow. - Aw. - And for the last time, we're not a spin-off. (laughing) - I guess we're officially not a spin-off now. - No. - Yeah. - We never were officially a spin-off 'cause we never were a spin-off. - I guess, could Beetaw call us a spin-off? - No. - Okay. - That was just- - If the B stands for bitch, maybe, but that would be the only way. (laughing) - I almost had a random Kevin and Michael experience two weeks ago. - Oh, God. - Okay. When you fall on top of one of their asses, that's not considered a random experience. - If the words "rubber crotchless bat girl outfit" are included anywhere in this story, I don't want to hear it. - I totally do. - I was in town looking for a team-building activity and I thought, "Sloose would be a good build." - Getting spit-roasted by the Q-cast connection is not necessarily something I would call a team-building activity. - I would. I totally want to be on that team. - I would call it heaven and I wouldn't call it a team-building. - Well, do you know about rhymes with heaven? - Kevin. (laughing) - What rhymes with heaven? - Kevin. - Kevin, the title of episode 111. (laughing) - Oh. So anyways, I almost went and the team-building activity at Sloose, but Michael wasn't working and my team didn't want to drive to international drive, so we decided to not. - So. - Well, that sucks. Did you have a good time in Orlando? - I did. I had a really good time in Orlando, so it was- - What was his name? (laughing) Orlando? (laughing) - Left hand. (laughing) - What? - Left hand. - Left hand, oh. - Sorry. - I've been a good boy lately. - Rodan has taken a vow of abstinence. I'm so proud- - I was gonna- - He's gonna get a purity ring soon. - No, no, no. I went sanding like that. - He's the new chastity bono. (laughing) - That's jazz. - Actually, chastity bono is the new chastity bono, but we'll get to that later. (laughing) No, so I'm sorry. Once again, I'm interrupting your story. So Orlando was a good experience for you guys? - Yeah, Orlando was not so much fun, just busy. Busy, busy, busy. So then I've had another week of travel on top of that, so I won't get into any of that, but it's just, it's been craziness. - I have somebody that's going on a little business excursion to Orlando this week. - And you're counting down the days. (laughing) - Is the cubs been going somewhere? - Yes, he's going for a work excursion for three days where they're apparently retraining. - I'm not a top. - They're training them on some sort of computer system or something, I don't know, and they pretty much need everybody from the southeast to meet in Orlando. So he's all upset 'cause there's people that are coming from like Louisiana and Georgia and all these different places. So he's all just like, you know, we have to go to Orlando versus going to, you know, Louisiana or New Orleans or something like that. - Or Louisiana. - Exactly. - Right. - So, but he's gonna be gone from Tuesday to Thursday. So it's gonna be weird being in the house without him here for a couple of days. - I was gonna say, and by weird he means, I'm going to lay in my underwear and play video games. - Master bait? - Well, I do that now. (laughing) - Wow, you're so classy. (laughing) - No, that's, yeah, the other day he was, yesterday, he went and saw Harry Potter at like nine o'clock in the morning and then came home about one o'clock. I was still wanting to run my pajamas, doing things around here. Just like, no, I guess I should get dressed. - And by pajamas, you mean, you're on a geeze underwear. - A geeze string and pasties. (laughing) - Again, rubber crotch, let's back her a little outfit. - Of course. - It was the Lord's Day. It was, actually knew yesterday was Saturday. Goddamn it, screwed up the joke. I went to see Harry Potter today. - What'd you think? - I thought it was much better than the last movie. I hated the last movie. The third one is still probably my favorite, but I thought this one was really good. I was very happy that they explored more of their budding romance. - Sexuality. - Yes. - It was hairy. - And honestly, there's a lot of little nuances. That's gross. There's a lot of little nuances in this one that I missed in the last, they actually were acting in this one, which was kind of surprising. (laughing) - Oh, that's so nice. They actually tried to act. - They weren't actually wizards in the other movies though. - No, but they, it was, some of their acting was not good, and this movie was, the acting was a lot better. So, no, it was good. I would go see it again. I would, out of five stars, I would give it three and a half, four. - You know, I've almost completely decided to wait on watching. I haven't seen any of them since the third one. And I'm pretty much, I think I've decided that I'm just gonna wait till they all come out and DVD is one big set. - The third one was my favorite. I thought the fourth one was horrible. - Yes, I haven't seen the fourth one. - I thought you didn't like the second one. - No, I didn't like the third one. - No. - No, I did like the third one. And not the, I don't know. I don't know. - I've only ever seen the first one, so. - The first one's good one. - I'm good. - Yeah, I was one big fan of the second one. I almost gave up on them after that. - No, I hated the second one. Chamber of Secrets, I hated that one. - Yeah. - I'm just, I mean, I can take them early, but this one was, this one was good. I know all four of us went, the girls had already seen it, but all four of us went again today to see it because we were supposed to see it with Babaloo, but he ditched us and went to see it by himself. But I'm not bitter. He'll get him. - I'm bastard. - He'll get him. - Good thing he's going to learn how to top this week again. - What? - I don't know, when you said he had to go learn some new, learn how to redo something I said to top. - He missed it. - He's, well, versed. Thank you. (laughing) - Well, we know that Taylor is power-versatile. He can either be a power-top or a power-bottom. He's power-versatile. We even have that on film, so. - We went today to, we went to CD-ROMAs. We had a very nice, productive running around doing sort of stuff today. And when we were leaving, I had some, we made some sort of reference about having sex later, like, you know, in the joking sort of thing, to which my response was, oh, yeah, okay, take me out to pizza, then you wanna, you know, mess around, I said, because of nothing else, I enjoy a sloppy bottom. Only apparently I said it a little bit louder than I meant to. - Nice. - Appalling the Sarah Palin wannabe next to her. - Nice. - That she quit her meal and leave. - No, I just sort of shook my shoulders and went, oops, scampered out. - Sorry. - So I did something today that Taffy normally does, and I normally have given her shit about numerous times in the past. - Which was? - I read an entire book. - Wow. - I read a 161 page book in the course of about three hours. - Aww, was it big print too? - No. - With lots of pictures? - It did have pictures. But it didn't have tons of pictures, it had a couple pages. I read the new Carrie Fisher book, Wishful Drinking, just kind of like her memoirs, a sort of autobiography sort of thing. And she talks about being mentally ill a lot in it. And that makes sense because the book is written by someone who appears to be mentally ill by someone who's cray cray. - Yeah, it's not very good. It was actually very disappointing. I bought it months ago, but I finished the other book that I've been reading forever. I finally finished that today. - Your list book? - Yeah, Create Your Best Life, which is kind of a, it's a sort of kind of self-help book. - No, it's not a sort of kind of self-help book. It is a self-help book. - No, it's not. It's really not. I don't see it that way. - Why don't I think I know someone else who's reading that Crockett Crap? - It's not. Oh, well, thank you. Okay, and you'd be listed as somebody who is... (laughing) (laughing) - I feel a story like this. - Ray, when Road to End puts me on, he pulls me back. That was nice, so it's nice. You realize I'm gonna hear about this for the next week, but that was nice. (laughing) - Sorry, Taylor. - I've read the book. I have read the book, and there is a part of that I agree with. There is also a part of it that I thought was very, very interesting and quite insightful, but I do agree that there's a lot of that, you know, Eastern philosophy that sometimes I think it's a Crockett Crap, but I-- - That's good. - Eastern philosophy. Okay, well, can we-- - Nevermind, go ahead, yes, yes. - Yes, yes, yes, please. - All right, creating your best life is a book where it is written by... Who's it written by? Carolyn Adams Miller, and she's a life coach, and it's written very much from the Life Coach point of view, and it uses a lot of scientific data versus just a lot of, you know, if you believe it, you can achieve it. I mean, there's definitely that part in there, but then there's also a studies have shown that if you do this, if you have some sort of semblance of, you know, personal responsibility, and you, you know, you focus on, you know, making, you know, the list of 100 things you wanna do before you die, or, you know, things that you wanna accomplish, that sort of thing, and you work on the list versus just sort of writing it and like, putting it in a file and then forgetting about it, that you will actually accomplish those things. And I really enjoyed the book. It took me forever to read it because I would get so engrossed in it, and I would do all the activities and everything, and then I would put it down. And for a while, I mean, Taffy can attest to this that I was pretty good with the list. - He actually was. He had a notebook that he kept with the book, and whenever you would see him with the book, like if Starbucks or something he'd be reading, he would have the notebook beside it, so then he would stop and do the little, you know, assignment, I guess, with the lack of a better word that they had that correlated to the chapter. He was pretty good about it. And no one was ever allowed to read the notebook or touch the notebook or see the notebook or anything like that. Apparently, Nicholas Sparks isn't the only one who writes the notebook, but yeah. (laughs) - No, it was, it was just something for me, and I have things that I've talked about on here that I want to accomplish, and there's other things that I'm sure I will be talking about on here, and, you know, we'll talk about it on the blog, but I just. - No, it's a private blog, I understand that. - It's a private book, but it made me feel good to read it. You know, even though it is a load of crap. - Do you go back and read your list that you've made? - Yes, and I can see where they pretty much say, "Have free through the book." If you go back and read your list, you're gonna see that you're gonna look at and you go, "Well, this isn't what I want." Or it's, you're gonna see that things aren't specific enough or that you need to focus on smaller steps before you just, you know, like a lot of times people just say, "Well, I want to lose weight." - Right. - Well, no, the idea of the list is you take that and you form an action plan and you say, "Okay, the first thing I'm gonna do is I'm gonna focus "on losing 10 pounds. "I'm gonna lose that 10 pounds by going to the gym every day, "keeping a food journal, checking in with a friend," you know, that sort of thing. - They want specifics. - So it's like performance management 101. - Yeah. - Just performance managing your life. - Yeah, that's exactly what it is, yeah. - I did think I remember where I know that book from. - Where? - Remember my college nemesis? (laughing) - Which one? You had like two or three. - I realized that. The one I dated had the belly button ring and I contacted it 'cause I played around with it. - Did you come in someone's belly button and it got their belly button ring infected? - No, no, no, no. I like, like, play it with my teeth and stuff and I pulled a little too hard and I pulled out. - That's awful. - But he got sick and badly never moved. - Oh my god. - He, he, and then, you know-- - Rodeon's mouth is a cesspool, essentially. - Pretty much, but then he pretty much stole every guy I dated after that. - Okay. - I don't remember, I don't know, but anyway. - Anyways, he's a life coach for I'm pretty sure that program. I'm trying to find him on Facebook right now. - Okay, so your friends with your nemesis on Facebook? - Of course. - Yeah, well, you know, no hard feelings. (laughing) - I gave him syphilis, but no hard feelings. (laughing) He moves well. - The other titled episode 111, I gave you syphilis, but no hard feelings. (laughing) - No, I mean-- - By the way, when a life coach writes a book, then that, in itself means it's a self-help book, probably, if it's a life coach. - Yeah, you think? - That's writing it, just that I clear that up. - That is sort of kind of self-help coach. - Yeah, it's a self-help book if a life coach is writing it. Unless the life coach is, you know, a life coach on how to be an auto mechanic, it's going to be a self-help book. - Okay, but when you say self-help book, there seems to be a connotation in your voice that it's a negative thing. - I think I kept going back to the book that Oprah was so frickin' jazzed up about, that she did all the weekly reports, I can't hit the author's name, it's New Worth. What is it? - A New Worth. - A New Worth. That, to me, was probably one of the most ridiculous books I've ever read in my entire life. I'm sure I'll offend everybody by saying that. But it was very much, you know, opening your third eye, and it got so lost in that kind of language, I think it turned off people who would have probably benefited from it originally, and it just seemed like she was all into it, and the whole thing was just kind of, I don't know. - Well, but that's not what this book is like, though. - No, but to me, that was a self, a true self-help book. This one is more of a, it's like a kindler, gentler self-help book, and the fact that it speaks to you on a more one-on-one basis as opposed to a, we are the world, let us all join hands, and find a way to make the world a better place, which is what the Oprah Winfrey book did, The New Worth. - I think it sounds much more like practical hero than very basic fundamental things you need to do. - It's much more user-friendly. - It's your life. - Yeah, and it's ultimately, if it's something where somebody reads it, and they are motivated to do something about, to change something about their lives that they don't like, I don't see what the-- - I don't see what the problem is. I'm not the one who said it was a pile of shit, he did. (laughs) - Yeah, well, just because I've been through so many of these, whatever, so apparently-- - No, finish what's finished what you were saying. - Well, just because I've been through so many of these things through work, kind of management, leadership, growth, kind of seminars, and stuff, that they're all pretty much the same. They're all teaching fundamental kind of basic things. It's really just trying to get people to focus on it. I mean-- - Well, but that's exactly what this is. - To create a new analogy for it. - It's getting you to focus on something you clearly want to change in your life, and teaching you how to focus on it. I mean, it's very easy to say I want to keep my house clean, but unless you have-- If you live in a house that is very cluttered, and you say, "Oh my God, I wish my house was clean," and you look at this-- - Right, and so that means you need to make a list that says, "I'm gonna mop the floor." - Right, exactly, that's what I'm saying. - It does three times a week. - It is a life strategy on how to micromanage yourself. - It's about making lists for yourself, so that way, for people who love lists, to make lists and everything, as long as you keep a list, your life will be perfect. - Well, no, I don't know if I agree with that, only because I think those of us, I certainly include myself in it, that are normal list makers. I don't know if this book is either very, very appealing to you because it's just basically telling you, yes, make more lists, which is very appealing to those who make lists. I think there are people, though, who have no idea the power that making a list can give you, and this is a way for them to take baby steps toward, look, this is your goal. Now, we're going to tell you how to achieve that goal by making this list first, and then I'm gonna ask you, you're gonna read a chapter and read a series of questions, and then we're gonna do this list. Now, go back and look at your first list and see how the answers from the first list and the second list are different. But if you're someone who not normally, you're not a type A tactical thinking person who would make a list to begin with, maybe that's a way for them to start. You know what I mean? - Yeah, no. - I can get that. - And I would say it's kinda like the whole green bell, the six Sigma kind of stuff. - Exactly. - It's trying to teach people who are not strategic thinkers how to be strategic. - Right. - And how to problem solve, but it's really just a class to teach people how to problem solve, not it's some big concept. So yeah, I'm not gonna get you down, I understand it, and I see the value in it. I just, some people have a tendency to pay a little too much for it. And I found what Mr. College nemesis does. He actually is not the list one like that. He does beyond the secret. (laughing) - Isn't that when you just sort of, everybody knows it, if it's not a secret anymore? - Yeah, beyond the secret means everyone knows. - Yeah. - That should be the title of his next book. Everyone knows. - Secret. So he does life coaching for beyond the secret. - Oh, well good. - And apparently he's got much pictures up here with Lisa Gibbons, who someone wheeled her out of the Botox clinic. - Well, then we all need to sign up for his classes of these friends with Lisa Gibbons. - Yeah, I had sex with someone with Lisa Gibbons, that's weird. - God. - Is he friends with her, or is it something where he was on her show in his-- - No, no, no, they did some speaking tour or something. He's got like tons of pictures. - Oh. He was probably her assistant. Here's your water in this given. - I would doubt it. (laughing) - It's still, yeah, anyways. - But yes, you've had sex with someone who knows Lisa Gibbons. - Wow. - Can I have your autograph for a second? - I know. - Well, I was busy. I was busy why you two were recording with Ricky, which by the way, Ricky was hysterical. - Yes, that's all my list of things is to thank you very much to Ricky from Falmonkeys for helping out with what was only supposed to be episode 109 and end up being 109 and 110. - I went on a Disney cruise. - Yes, we know. - It was lots of fun. And I have a video actually that I'm going to let Taylor release, even though this is the official disclaimer for the video. The video started, the first shot, the opening shot of the video is at about 5.15 in the A.M. to say that I am unattractive, and I have been up all night before. Oh, it's bad. It's so ugly. But there is just a humorous little thing that happened at the end of it. And that's why we're going to release it because even though small children should not look directly at the video camera because of my appearance, it's worth it to me for my audience to see the little just silly and significant funny thing that happens at the end of it. So they have to put up with looking at me, looking like the cripkeeper. - It's kind of like those videos online where you had the little kid that's looking at the car commercial, then all of a sudden the bass pops up and sends them forward backwards. That's kind of what it looks like. - Look, Mommy, is it the danger? (screams) Yeah, that's kind of what it is. So, yes, but now the cruise was amazing and we loved it and I was sad to come home. The day we docked, actually we sat, the day we docked, this embarkment is supposed to be at 9 a.m. And we actually sat in like one of the bar areas the four of us did and just kind of hung out until they pretty much were doing the, get the fuck off the ship. Because again, the reason that this cruise was so ridiculously priced was because our cruise ended on Thursday and the cruise that was leaving on Thursday on the same ship we were on was the first cruise of the Disney with the stars summer cruising special. And so, when we were disembarking, all of the Disney Channel was setting up their cameras. All of the stage crew at the night before have been setting up where, you know, each cruise for the next like three or four weeks has five or six Disney stars that are gonna be on it from all their kid TV shows. And they have been booked for like two years, some of them, I mean like-- - From all of their kid TV shows as compared to the hardcore porn that they put on it to in the morning. - Exactly, shut up. But they, it was all people from, you know, like the Jonas Brothers show, even though it wasn't the Jonas Brothers in Hannah Montana and you know, all that kind of stuff. But there, I will tell you man, there was probably 400 people walking around, setting up cameras, setting up this, setting up that, giving people scripts, giving people this 'cause it's all gonna be on the Disney Channel. So I was just thanking God every minute that we were getting off that boat at that point, because I-- - Yeah, I'm sure. - 'Cause we were there and the cruise was only 70% capacity, so it was beautiful, it was nice and there wasn't lines for anything, everything was great. I cannot imagine when they were at maximum capacity with all those kids. Oh God, I know. - All those kids in Selena Gomez. - Selena Gomez, she was one of them, yes. Wizards of Waverly Place was, that was one of the big, that Hannah Montana and the sweet life of Zack and Cody. I think they had tons of kids from their shows on it. - Oh, Rodin's favorite show. - Yay. - They're both about 15, 16, that's right up your alley. - Oh. - He wishes he had a 16-year-old up his alley, allegedly, allegedly. (laughing) - Oh my gosh, I don't even like chase after people under 21 anymore. - Well, that's good. - Oh, well. - Look at you. - Where's that Nobel Prize that you paid for in the mail every day? (laughing) - By the way, by the way, I would like to say something, I would like to go officially on the record of saying, I'm offended by something that someone has done the show. - Mm-hmm. - What have we done to-- - Just the one thing? - Yeah, right, I mean-- - Because I have a tendency to keep my, you know, my public thought is my co-pilot life separate than my real life, except in this particular case. Because, let me just tell you what happened. Rodin, yesterday, yesterday, I was usurped. My crown is a little tarnished, and it makes me sad. Because, as you and our dear listeners know, in the course of one school year, I might make well over 1,000 cupcakes. (laughing) Except yesterday, Mr. Taylor Tealatayboy brought to my home, the barefoot contest is dark chocolate cupcakes with peanut butter frosting, all made from scratch. - I saw the pictures of them on the-- - Yeah, by the way, kudos to the macro, because they were awesome pictures. But, let's not lose sight of the point. - I ate, I, who try not to eat too much sugar, I ate three cupcakes and, like, the icing off of another one, I was so sick last night, oh my God, it was totally worth it, I gotta be honest with you though. But, this morning, when Tank said, "Do you want the last cupcake?" I went, "Oh God, please, no, "I'm not eating sweets for four years, it's disgusting." Yeah, he cured me of one of everyone's sweets for at least the next week. But, man, they were good, they were so good. - Thank you very much. - So, you get the gold star. - Yeah, it sounds like something you should be cooking, really. - So, what? - Well, just, you know, I'm glad they're good and tasty and damn, they've put a frost and you should've sent me some. But, should that really be something you're cooking? - I can bake as much as I want. Okay, Tabby had three cupcake, three and a half, or three and a half. - I had three in icing, thank you. Over the course of eight hours. - Right, and Tank had a beer for, and Babaloo had three or four, and each of the girls maybe had one or two. I only had two. - Yeah, he did very well. - Two. - And Taffy made Apple Brown Betty, I didn't have any of that. - Did you have any of it today? - No. - No, but Babaloo did and said it was, I mean, I'm trying not to. - It was really good, though. - Put yourself in a job at a coma every day. - Which is why I went to CD-ROM was for lunch. But, I am trying to. - I will tell you, Babaloo said it was amazing. - When I first, when I was first in the big, like, first six months of losing weight, Tank actually got mad at me because, as a way of, you know, I'm a very textile person anyways, and I love to bake. So, as a way for me to get it out of my system, I baked every single day. I mean, literally, Taylor would come in here and immediately go to the microwave, where I always kept the baked goods, and he would be like, you know, what's the microwave? Because it would be, you know, one day it would be cookies, one day it would be cupcakes, one day it would be brownies, one day it would be fudge, one day it would be-- - And that's why I'm a diabetic today. - And finally, I mean, honestly, if you're trying to lose weight, believe it or not, I think there's something about the actual art of baking something that, you know, you might lick your fingers once or twice or something, but once they're done, you don't really wanna eat them. I mean, you want to, but you've had enough of yourself immersed in the process that you don't need to eat them. That's the way I felt, I absolutely understand it. So, I mean-- - Not me. If I bake something and it's good, I doubt that they're gone. - What do you bake? What's something that you like to bake? - I don't bake anything very often anymore, just because of that, because I'll eat too much of it, like brownies or-- - Yeah. - But none of this whole, from scratch kind of stuff, that's way too much. - You see, I am learning to really enjoy doing shit like that. Like, for example, I'm having dinner next weekend at drums house with a bagash, drum and bagash, and Bob Blue and I are all having dinner, and I am responsible for bringing dessert. So, I've got my bare-fucka-tessa cookbooks and my Martha Stewart's cookie cookbook, and I'm trying to figure out which one I wanna do, and I'm actually all kind of, it's an exciting project to try something new and to-- - And you know, what's really amazing is once you, once you really learn the actual chemical makeup of baking, you will figure out quickly how you can, like if you have a problem, you can correct it, or you know just instantly how to make things, you always know that certain things are cooked at one temperature. And once you get in the habit of doing it and you keep those things in your house, you'll find that you'll bake a lot more. - I absolutely, at Christmas from pretty much the first of Thanksgiving till January 1st, I bake every single day. I am a crazy person, but I love it. There's something very, very cathartic about it. I absolutely love baking. So, hopefully you'll get the bug. Then we can bake together. We can have the Taffy and Taylor cooking hour. - Well, I have a couple of, I have those cooking videos-- - You can have a bake off. - We could have, that sounds dirty. When you're talking about the two of us doing it, it sounds like the words yeast will come up and wait too many times. - He said bake off, not jerk off. - It's a bake off, damn it, bake off, bake off. - Squirt your icing on me over here. - Look it off. - Stuff it in my oven. - Look it off. - Stick it in my hot box. - Nobody likes a dirty box. - Stick it in me, Dave. - What? - The whole quiz knows commercials. - Oh, God. - The club is like, stick it in me, Dave. - Nice. I'm probably just wrong. - They're wrong. I like that they're in therapy now. They're in couples therapy. - Yeah, I fast-forwarded through something the other night and I think it was during the "So You Think You Can Dance." - Yeah. - All right, so Rodan, are you watching "So You Think You Can Dance?" - Yes, I am. But can I read this quote first, going back to the self-help stuff because I went to the NEMA sisters. - The NEMA sisters? - Web page. - Okay. - Sisters. - Go ahead. - The solution lies in understanding that the problem is never truly the problem. It's our thinking about the problem. - Amen, I agree with that. - Okay. - That's the biggest load of bullshit ever. (laughing) - Why is that bullshit? - Well, it's just, it's something that is just words jumbled together and then that way everybody can know a specific meaning so that way everyone can draw their own meaning from it. - Well, I think that's the whole purpose of self-help is that the self is helping itself, therefore you need to draw your own purpose to it. And FYI, I can guarantee you that if you decide to look at things differently, if you wake up in the morning and think, I'm going to have a good day. I realize there's gonna be shit that's gonna happen, but I'm going to let it roll off my back and I'm just gonna go out with a sunny disposition and a smile on my face that your day will be better. - Oh, I don't disagree with that. I'm just not gonna pay somebody. - Well, no, I absolutely agree with that too. - I would be careful what you say to the counselor right now and how you word your words. - Who, me? - No, but he's gonna say that he wouldn't pay somebody to help tell him that. - I wouldn't pay somebody $1,000 an hour as a life coach. - Life coaches make $1,000 an hour? - Because they've got their own talk show. - I know, but I'm just... - I wasn't aware that you fucked Dr. Phil and are looking at his website right now. (laughing) - Rodan, why did you fucking get that card? - Shut up. I almost became Nancy Grace. Expline. (laughing) - Okay, sorry. - Rodan, you decided to put your penis in my vagina, explain. - Expline. (laughing) - Okay, sorry. So we were starting to get off of the... I forgot what you asked me, Taffy. Oh, no, Taylor asked me about it. So you're thinking, dance. Yes, I'm watching it. I'd not try agree with your comments about Debbie Allen. I kinda enjoy her judging. - Oh, God, I hate her. Sorry, I just can't take it. - But I don't know when that Hepha comment came out. I don't know, was it on the show or was it just some other time? - No, I think that was just... She apparently said something. She called Raven Samona Hepha and that... - Which shocks me because, you know... Nevermind, I'm not going there. - 'Cause Debbie Allen's so anorexic these days. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - Somebody posted on my Facebook page, a friend of mine from high school, that she's just, I think she's so self-important and everything that has said with drama, you know, she can ask the simplest question as to where's my cell phone and it's very... Where is my cell phone? And you're supposed to be in awe of the fact that she's asking you that. - I just can't, I can't take her. - I just, she's horrible. - Everything comes, everything is very much, you know, this just, everything comes out of her mouth, just irritates me, she just is not. I mean, trust me, she's not the only one, but for her, unfortunately, she's my least favorite judge. - Well, do you think that they sometimes punish people? - Yeah. - And that's why they're not, I mean, I get the impression that it's very family and this is their one outlet, right, to get into the public for some of these like choreographers and stuff and the judges. And I really think that if they do, all of a sudden I forgot its name, Nigel wrong, or they piss off Nigel in any way, they get blacklisted for some period of time before they're allowed to come back. - Like who? - There's just been a couple of-- - Well, isn't that kind of how it is on most of them? I mean, Janice Dickinson pissed Tyra Banks off and she was out the door. I think that's what he does on a lot of shows. - Yeah, I'm just, I'm thinking that, but they bring them back. It's like, this is family like, yeah, I'm pissed off at you, you're not coming back, you know, I don't know, I get the sense that. - Well, they use an awful lot of choreographers and Mary Murphy and Nigel with now are the contracts. - Yeah, I mean, they can only rotate so many of them within the course of a, I mean, you figure that the guest host is gonna be on for two episodes. There's what, 10 episodes of the regular show on a year, but they've got probably 12 to 15 different choreographers they use and not including-- - The guest one. - When like, you know, Pasha came back and all that sort of stuff, so. - Yeah, just something just rings is, there's just like an attitude amongst some of them that even, I realize it's just little cutscenes and comments that they make, but just some of the comments they make, there's stories there that I'd love to know. - Like the Tysti Oreo crap man, he gets all my nerves too. - Yeah, and the, yeah, one of the other ones that does hip hop or jazz, that's not on very often anymore, they don't seem to like his routines when he does do them, and. - Chainsparks? - Yeah. - Yeah. - I like chainsparks. - I like chainsparks too. I think, I think this has been the strongest year so far for dancers and. - My favorite choreographer, no one else likes, so. My favorite choreographer. - Who's your favorite choreographer? - Mia Michaels, which I drum hater. - I love Michael Michaels. I love Mia Michaels, I love her. - I love me Michaels. I love the new chick that I can never remember her name, but the one with the faux hawk. - Oh yeah. I loved, I knew Mia Michaels as a choreographer. I mean, I didn't like know her and know her. I knew of her before, so you think you could dance. Because she's very, very much a guard choreographer. In fact, she does guard choreography, that's one of the things she does. So I had heard of her before that, so I really like her. In fact, the Little Stuffington has a t-shirt that's signed by her that we got, I think, two years ago. And again, this is before the show really became huge, but I like her a lot. Everybody else doesn't, but I do. - No, she's definitely one of my favorites. I really enjoyed, dude, I forgot his name. I'm about names tonight. No, no, the, I don't like Wade Robson. - That's insane, I don't care for him. I can't stand the Mandy Moore girl. - He, well yeah, because that's again, you just put on linen pants and open a shirt, and then they play, you know, and then they play, then you look at me by Celine Dion, and they run to the edge at the stage and they stop, and then they run to the other stage and they stop all the wind machines going. That's pretty much every Mandy Moore routine. - I think that you and I should do a video version of all of our favorite routines. I mean, we both know-- - I was wondering, do they sell the dance routines on like iTunes or anything as videos? - No, I don't think so. - No, because there are a couple of them that I would like to buy, and I really like the Travis Wall, that's what I was gonna say. I really like the Travis Wall. - Yes, he was amazing, and that was, that dance was, I got a text message. I was sending a Starbucks to get a text message from the tailor that says, "Have you watched So You Think You Can Dance?" I said, "No," and he's like, "Best dance of the year so far." And I was like, "Really?" So of course, as soon as I got home, I fast forwarded to that one, and I thought it was ridiculous. I thought it was awesome. - That was good as the door one last year, but it was close. - No, I like this one better than the door one last year. - Really? - Yeah. As much as I love that-- - I love that one, yeah. - As much as I love that dance routine, we are losing so many people right now. - No. - I don't know. - I'm like, "You know what I mean, you know what I mean?" - Yeah. - Well, I have to wish, I have to wish Tank a happy belated birthday, 'cause his birthday was Thursday, so I didn't post anything on it, so happy birthday, darling, I love you. - Happy birthday, Tank. Happy birthday, Tank. - That's all. Okay, well, I guess that means we're done talking about the dance show. - No, no, no, no. - Well, you said, you said we were losing people, so I figured I would, actually, we will change the subject because I made the unthinkable happen. I made the widow Carlisle do a spit take at a table on Tank's birthday. - Really? - And Taylor got to bore witness to it. And the widow Carlisle's not happy with Babaloo. - What did Babaloo do to the widow Carlisle? - Well, she gave him a direct order, and he said, "No, I'm not gonna do that." And she went, "What?" She said, "Come sit next to me," because my mother-in-law and my mother do not get along overly well. And so, of course, you know, you're sitting at the long table, and there's nine people at the table, and my mother-in-law is sitting directly across from Taylor, and there's an empty chair beside her, and then my mother sits directly across from Tank. So there's like one chair in between the two of them, and the little hovington looks at me like, "I am not sitting between us two." So my mother looks over at Babaloo and says, "Babaloo, get over here and sit down." He was like, "No," 'cause he went to sit by Taylor, and she was like, "You're gonna pay for this "the rest of the evening." So she just kept sitting in death links all the time. So yeah, it was very, it was nice and fun. So eventually the little hovington had to sit between the two and mediate them, and then finally she got up and walked down and set by Babaloo, 'cause she couldn't take it for very long, which, you know, God bless her. - Speaking of other news about the widow Carlisle, isn't there another story that you want to share that happened this week? - I don't know. - Involving your cousin. - Well, this is an interesting story. It actually involves all of you too. I arrived at the widow Carlisle's house on Monday, and for my personal servitude day, and my cousin is there who's from out of town, and she's getting ready to leave, and she gives me a hug, and I'm helping her carry her stuff out to the car, and she goes, "So I listened to the show." I'm sorry, what should I listen to? Right, so I listened to the show, and you know, it was really interesting, and I had no idea that, you know, Tank was involved in the whole, you know, "Goth Scene," but I really liked the songs. I'm thinking, okay, so you totally have caught me off guard right now. So I decided, okay, I can, so I called Taylor, and I'm like, oh, so I didn't know at that point how much my mother had listened to, or if she had listened to a lot of it, or how that had come about. So I figured, okay, I'll ease her into that. So I said, you know, what made you let Michelle listen to the show? And she was just like, well, she was talking about podcasts. She's an RN, and they were talking about RN podcasting, whatever. And she goes, and I said, "Oh, well, you know, Taffy does a podcast." And she was like, "Oh, what's it called?" And she's like, "It was a pod as my co-pilot." Now, I would have laid a million dollars on a table that said my mother had no idea what the name of the podcast was. She goes, "Oh, no, it's a pod as my co-pilot." She goes, "You could just look it up on my computer." And apparently-- - No, this is also part of this because the way to Carlisle has never known how to get the episode. - Exactly, she had no idea how to download an episode, but she had somebody in the house that had a computer. - Oh, on purpose, because you know, Tank and I are having sex in the pool, and all of a sudden my ankle came out of joy. - So apparently the only episode that they downloaded and listened to was the one where I am doing the music. So if they were ever gonna pick one, at least that's a very mundane one. I mean, you know, so that was it. And of course, the only thing my mother had to say about it was, you know, do you really think that you should cuss when, you know, your mother-in-law called? And I'm thinking, okay, well, that's gonna be what your comment's gonna be, and I even told her, I said, well, you're welcome to listen to all the other episodes, but you need to understand that I talk about having sex an awful lot. And she was just like, I don't need to listen to anything like that. No, my mother's not a prude at all. I mean, please. But she believes that both of our children were immaculately conceived, so that's absolutely fine. So yes, my mother had the podcast playing in her house at one point, which that is very much a two-world colliding. How can this be? Oh, well. - Yeah, I would have freaked out. - I tried to manage the freak though. I didn't want her to see, I did not want her to think I thought it was a big deal, because then it would have been, I have to figure out how to download every single episode and start from episode one. So I just was like, oh, I said, well, you know, and I even said to her, I said, well, if you wanna hear any episodes, I have them all on my iPod. And she was just like, no, she's like, you know, I really didn't know what it was about. And she's like, you know, I know that she, just you guys act and silly. And I was just like, yeah, yeah, that's it. So that was, I mean, honestly though. - Yeah, that's it. We tell knock knock jokes. - Yes, exactly. No, she knows that she goes, I know that you guys talk about Phil, well, good. - Well, yeah, just everyone's definition of Phil is just a little bit different. - Well, one of my favorite things to say about my mother is one time I said, you know, she's such a frickin' idiot. And her answer to that was, what's your fucking mouth? Yeah, so it's not like I'm going to offend her. I think it's just the idea that I would be saying those things because I'm virginal and pure and good. - Please. You are the driven snow. - I am. Pure is a driven sludge. - And on that note, speaking of real quick, people who listened to the podcast I wasn't expecting, I guess who also listened to the podcast. - Ew. - Who? - Naton. - Oh. - Who? (laughing) - Naton. - Who's Naton? - It's a friend of Ricky's. And thank you for letting us know that you listened to the shows that, you know, you weren't on. The guy I talked about on 109 that was trying to get Ricky help me. - I listened to 109. - Keep with. - Why do you still remember his name? God, there's so many. I listened to 109. I even said you cleft notes on it, so shut up. - The, yeah, Naton was very great. - Had he been listening prior to Ricky being on the show? Or? - I guess so because Ricky didn't know Nathan listened either. - Oh, okay. - So, 'cause I got a Facebook message from, from Ricky saying, oh my God, guess who just emailed me about the show? And, you know, text me if you have, you know, the text me, and I, I guess I never did text Ricky, but, and then the next email I got was from Nathan saying, I'll listen to the show, (laughing) and, so. - Where does Nathan live? - Rustin, about 20 minutes east or west of me, so. So, where Dan's gonna be getting some Cajun love. - No, no, no, country boy love is not gonna happen 'cause he was very nice and very sweet and let me down easy. - Aw. - So. - Nathan. - Well, he'd have to 'cause of the, you know, seismic damage done to the area of his job too quickly. - You bitch. - Nice, nice. - Yeah, so it was, it was nice and, you know, he's moving away soon as he finds a job outside of Louisiana. So. Walt, Walt, Walt. Walt, Walt, Walt. - Well, I got a text message last night. It's like 1.30 in the morning and I'm thinking, okay, my children are here. Taylor and Babaloo, we're here. Who the hell is text messaging me? It was Melanie. Don't quote your day job. - Really? - Apparently, she had got, she got to meet somebody. Yeah, she got to meet somebody that she's always wanted to meet, she was very excited. Oh, congratulations. - Yeah, she got to see Jeffrey Combs, who's an actor that she likes in a play out in Los Angeles. And apparently she's meeting all the, that's what she said, guys. - Nice. - And it was the plans that she was eventually going to get to meet all them. - Nice. Melanie, we love you. - Yes. - Melanie, has Melanie been on the show? - No. - No, Pat has, Melanie has. - No, Melanie is not. - We'll have to have Melanie on some time. - We'll have to have an all the China show where it's just me and Melanie. - And Babaloo. - And Babaloo. - All snatch all the time. - Charming. - It's like oxygen. - It's like, it's the oxygen network's podcast. - All snatch all the time. - Okay. - And on that note. - Yeah, right? - All right, well, we need to wrap this up 'cause we are at about 45 minutes or so. So let's do that, shall we? - Can I ask you a question? - Sure, we shall. - Hold on, what happened to us having to do the intros in a different language? - Well, tonight was a little different. Tonight's was a little different because-- - We did it in a Connecticut language. - We did it in the language of love. - Orlando Actories. - Okay. - Touche. - And the episode before was a continuation of 109 and 109, I purposely left in the part that I couldn't remember the language. So we'll get back to doing them in a different language starting next week. - You should close it. - At your homework assignment, Tappi, you can be in charge of that. - I would love that. - All right, all right. Well, as always, you can go to our blog, which is potismicopilot.com. You can email us at potismicopilot@gmail.com. Call our listener line at 206-202-5165 and be our friend on Facebook at okay. So I love potismicopilot. I guess that's pretty much it for this week. So thank you all very much. This is Taylor. - And Tappi. - And Rodin. - We'll see you all next week. Bye-bye. - Bye. - Go out and get yourself help. - That's the way Michael always finished an episode was going. Bye-bye. So we all have to say it like that, okay? - Bye-bye. - Bye-bye. - What the hell? - That was very bad. - Bobby, it's like a Jewish. - Bye-bye. - Bye-bye. - Bye-bye. - Bye-bye. - Bye-bye. - Bye-bye. - Bye-bye. - Bye-bye now. - Bye-bye. - Bye-bye. - Bye-bye. - Bye-bye. - Bye-bye. - Goodbye. Crazy person. - All right. - Can we stop? (upbeat music) (upbeat music)
