(upbeat music) You're listening to "Hot as My Co-Pilot" with Taylor the Latte Boy, Taffy Carlisle Huffington, and Rodin. (upbeat music) - What episode are you on, episode 16? - At 16. - Sweet 16. - Sweet 16. Hello everyone, this is Taylor the Latte Boy. - And Taffy Carlisle Huffington. - And you're listening to episode 16 of "Hot as My Co-Pilot." And it's just the two of us. - Just the two of us. Thank you, Wilson. - We can make it if we try. (laughing) - It is, it's our 16th episode. Sweet 16 and never been kissed. - Because, and we're taping it in the middle of the afternoon. - Daytime, it's dirty. - On a weekday. - It's dirty. - Because skyrockets in flight. - Boo! (laughing) (blowing sound) - So. - We were just listening to that song. - I actually got that song off of emusic.com the other day. Do you have your done emusic? - No. - Okay, you would love emusic. What you do is-- - Wait, wait, is it one of these things where I have to like download music for free? 'Cause it'll scare me. - Yeah, but it's, I've done it a couple of times, but that's why we use fake names. - Which means you're going to be jail? - Yeah. - What would you do is you sign up, and if you sign up through-- - So you're gonna tell him about this? - Yeah, I'm gonna sign up. - Let's just have a day. So, oh please, like people don't do it all the time. I bought, when I bought my ticket to see Sandra Bernhardt, there was something that said emusic.com/ticketmaster. See, I don't know, so you're gonna have to play around with it. And then you got 50 free downloads. And what you do is you type in your credit card number, okay, and then you pick the music that you want-- - So it's Columbia House. - Happy albums for a penny. - Kind of, and as soon as you pick your 50 songs, you cancel, so you go and you find the songs that you want, you type in your credit card number, you pick your 50 songs, and then you cancel your subscription, because it's sort of like where you pay for a monthly thing. I found all, now it's not a lot of mainstream stuff, it's a lot of like independent labels. - Yeah, that's the best stuff. - But I found after the original afternoon delight, and Steven Lynch, who is a comedian, and David Tal, who Insomniac, his album was on there too. - Did you get the whole album or did you just get songs? - No, I got the whole album. And Bear Naked Ladies had like a live CD that was only available on e-music, and I picked the fives. Yeah, and I was, came to like 50 songs, exactly, so, and then I canceled it. So I was a member of e-music for about 10 minutes. - And they have it-- - Totally legal, totally legal, and they say all over it that, you know what, you know, sign up for the service, shop around, we understand that people get the music, and then, you know, decide to cancel the subscription, and keep them as a gift. It says it, it says it on the website. - Yeah, you're showing this to me as soon as we're done. - Okay, yeah, it's awesome. - So we are taping this on the 5th of July. - As opposed to the 4th of July, which was yesterday, which you bailed on us for. Taylor was supposed to come hang out with us and watch, what are they called? - Fireworks, quit. - Fireworks and have a lovely little cookout, and go to the beach, and just and generally love us, and he called about, hmm, and now we're supposed to, before he was supposed to be here, and said, I don't want to go, it's raining, and there's people, and it's crowded, and well, I went, my peepee hurts, so he stayed home. I did stay home, and I had a wonderful evening. - Not good for you. - I had a grilled cheese sandwich, and it was so good I had a second grilled cheese sandwich, and I loved grilled cheese. - I played PlayStation for a while, and looked at, did research, and it was fun. I had a good time, so hung out with my dogs. Otis, my one pug, hates fireworks. He hates any sort of loud thunderstorms, like many dogs do, but he goes crazy, and the white trash family on the corner down the street from us decided, they were gonna let their six and eight year old shoot off fireworks, and not just bottle rockets, but like the big fire, so all of a sudden, right, all of a sudden, I'm sitting playing PlayStation in my living room, and then green light comes through, like an alien invasion or something, I don't know when I went running out, and you know, I hear, "Daddy, give me the lighter," and yeah, okay. - Yeah, the police should've been caught. - Right, I thought about it, but I decided, whatever. So, why get involved, it's just my neighborhood. - It's just your neighborhood, you're just here, just, you know, a licensed professional to take care of children, but that's fine. - Oh, God, I didn't even think of it. - Yeah, see, how that works. - No, there's no proof now. - That's true. - Except for this, me admitting that I didn't return a call, but again, why I don't use my real name. (laughs) When recording this thing. So, that was pretty much what I did, and I worked because I work for hospice, and death doesn't take a holiday, so we work. If it's a holiday in the middle of the week, we work. - Now, do you still have, I mean, is there still a group of people at hospice who take meetings like on Easter and Christmas? - The only days that our offices aren't open are Thanksgiving, Christmas Day, and New Year's Day. There's only three days out of the year, yeah. So, now we also have people that cover, but, you know, so, I mean, I've had in years, like, on every Wednesday, I have a meeting that I go to every Wednesday morning, and I've had where I've had to go to meetings on Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve. - That's gotta suck. - Yeah, it does suck, and nobody wants to be there, and everybody's miserable, and the person who comes in or ends the meeting says, "We are gonna get through this as fast as possible." - Well, at least they acknowledge that. - Yeah, so-- - Instead of just quit your bitching. - But luckily, you know, the whole organization has meetings on Wednesdays, and I'm lucky enough that I have meetings Wednesday mornings. Some people have Wednesday afternoon meetings. - Yeah, that would suck. - So, that means in the middle of their day on Christmas Eve, they have to go and sit and talk about bound movements for three hours. - Fun! - Yeah, lots of fun. - Yeah, we just went down to two listeners right now. (laughs) Well, we're sorry for our delay. We've been a little lagged in getting out the new episode. We've actually had people who say hello. We're waiting. - Where are you? - We suck, we face it, but we want to be fresh and glorious for our listeners. - Yes, and that's how we're going to thank all of you because we suck. (laughs) No, really, you can email us at Potts. (laughs) - On command, we suck. - Yeah, yeah, definitely. So, well, tell me about your Fourth of July. I understand you went to the Widow Carliles. - We went to the Widow Carliles Beach condo, which actually isn't on the beach. It kind of overlooks the inner coastal water right beside where they set off the fireworks on the bridge. And it's about the best view in town because you're six stories in the air looking right into them. And it's actually a little creepy because sometimes they look like they're coming right at you and it's over the water and there's tons of boats and it's beautiful, which you would know. But unfortunately, you went there and this came. I'll let it go, I'll let it go, I promise. So we had about 10 people that came out and just ate food and watched fireworks. And there was a lot of stuff going on. There's a park right by the bridge and they had local favorites, John and Mary Kay Wilson singing. So we got to hear God Bless America about 18 different versions. But it's always good for a good laugh. - And I think the big band was Starship. - Because they built this city on Rock and Roll Hall. - They built this city on Rock and Roll Hall. - Knee deep in the Ooh Blah, exactly. So yes, that was the big, the big draw. - But you know what, nothing's going to stop them now. - No. (laughing) - Except maybe Sarah. (laughing) - She's in there and kept Sarah. Great slick, man. She's got some, at one point, she was not bad, but now. - Oh, geez. - Scary scaring, that's not it. - She's bad, she's crazy. - She's got, and she's on a seven head. Have you ever noticed that? Or is that she's going completely bald? Because her hair starts like back where her crayon. - Really? - Yes, it's very good. And she slicks it back. It's like a big long gray ponytail. It's bizarre. - I haven't really seen anything since that, like behind the music years ago from VH1 when they were talking about how she went and like-- - Had sex with everybody, like on the Jim Morrison tour, not Jim Morrison, but um, - Jefferson. - Van Morrison tour. - I was talking about when she was all crazy and went out with a shotgun and sort of like ward it off cops. So it's like, I don't know. Allegedly, I don't remember the all the details. - Allegedly, yes, thank you. - That's right. What are your most, most fondest? - Most fondest. - Most fondest. - Most fondest. What is your favorite? (laughing) Fourth of July memories. - We used to go out to a place called Rocky Fort. Like, which was, I don't know, it seemed like a million miles away from our house, probably wishing it a 20, but when you're a little. - Yeah. - And that was the thing to do, was go up to Rocky Fort and you know, all the family would meet up there and all the aunts and uncles would, everyone would bring food. And there was always like, 18 different versions of double eggs, which reminds me of something I will tell you in a second. And you know, we would sit out there and all the kids would get on the paddle boats. And it was just, it was very Americana, you know, everyone would go to the lake and everyone would, and then there was always a big boat that they'd clear all the boats off the lake and then they would set off fireworks. And I remember my Uncle Dale had a pontoon boat and that was like the highlight of the thing, is when you know you're five years old and he tells all of us that we could steer the boat without we were totally, you know, big shit, which of course, you know, a pontoon boat goes about 12 miles an hour. (laughing) On a giant lake, you're not hitting anything, but we thought we were real old. So yeah, that was, that was about it. - Cool. - No, last night, our one and only job was to bring barbecue ribs and double eggs. So my husband's wonderful tank worked so hard. He even has like the pastry bag to where he can pipe in the filling. So they're all pretty and he sprinkles them with paprika and they look so beautiful and we seal up the little, the little, you know, tray and we get up to the Wood of Carlisle's house so we can pick up more people putting in our car and he gets out because he's holding the eggs, sets them on the top of the car. All of us get loaded in, we get in the car and I have ski racks on the top of my car. So at first, it never went anywhere until we hit about 35 miles an hour and all of a sudden it was an explosion of white and yellow everywhere. The car behind us, totally covered in double eggs. (laughing) All of a sudden it's none of us realized it except for my eldest daughter's boyfriend, turned around and goes, "Uh, I, did we have double eggs?" And tank goes, (gasping) because he realizes that now the entire 24 eggs, which is 48 double eggs is now splattered on the car behind us. And as we pull up to a light. (laughing) - Did they say anything? - Oh, they were, they, no, they weren't saying, they didn't say anything, but they had the windshield wiper going, which of course smeared the yellow. Oh, it was awful, I thought. I felt awful, I didn't feel bad enough to stop and say, "Sorry, I hear 10 bucks go wash your car but I didn't feel pretty bad, actually." - Oh my God. - What was really bad is that the littlest Huffington wasn't in our car, so when we get out to the condo, we get in, and the only thing she talked about all day was, you know, "Daddy's double eggs," 'cause she loves when we get there and I looked right at her and said, "We ate 'em all." And she was like, "What?" I said, "We ate 'em all." I said, "You know, I'm sorry, we each had one and they were so good, and so we let her think that for about 15 minutes until she was in an absolute hysterical fit and we said, "No." And then we told her the story, but it was funny. - Oh my God, yeah. - So someone had, you know, Huffington Devil Day smashed for the car. - Somebody had Devil Day bucocky all over their Chrysler, so. - Oh. - Oh, hot, that's hot. - It is creamy. (laughing) - And full of protein. - Oh. - Yeah, what was it? - With paprika. Oh wait, that's just me. - No, a teaspoon of sperm is something like 1,400 grams of protein. It's not, there used to be like an actual scientific-- - It's not 1,400, that's like-- - No, it's, it's like eating a half a pound of liver, how much protein is in sperm. There was this whole big thing on it. I know, I'm walking the-- - Well, I know, I've seen it, I don't think it's, we'll research that. - Yeah, that'll be posted on it. - Yeah, that'll be posted somewhere. Well, I talked about-- - Taylor Spunk is equal to how many pounds of liver? (laughing) - Oh, God. (laughing) - Sorry. - Well, I talked about my favorite Fourth of July memories last episode when I talked about the beach, but I was also telling you about a story about when I was a child, and watched two people die on Fourth of July. - Wow, the story, I think you should write children's books. - Yeah, absolutely. I was probably about three or four, and you're just gonna have to sit through this story again. But, shut up. (laughing) And something happened, I wanna say it was in Glendora, New Jersey, when, Glendora or Runameed, I'm not sure which one, but it was near where my grandparents lived. And-- - That should be the best stripper's name. - Glendora Runameed? (laughing) - Oh, why? That sounds like some old witchy stripper who's now-- - Like, for a last that did the horrible dance and everything, ladies and gentlemen, put your hands together for Ms. Glendora Runameed. (laughing) And it was on a softball field, and I remember something happening where, I was probably about three, and I only remember tiny bits and pieces of this, but a firework went up, and then obviously didn't go up all the way, and then came back down and landed into a bigger box of fireworks, and they all exploded at once. So, of course, it was like panic, and out of like a disaster movie, and everybody's running, and I was being held by my father. I remember running to the car, and of course, my father's running away, but as he's holding me, my head is on his shoulder, so I'm watching all the people go up, which explains a lot about my side face. - That is sick with a child. - And I just remember all the pretty lights, I remember being lots of pink and blue, like on the ground, obviously, and lots of smoke and people, like the silhouettes of people running. You know, and I remember running to the station, we had a station wagon with the wood paneling on the side and everything very '70s, no, it was blue. I always remember that, because I remember seeing another blue station wagon on the road one time, and they said, "They have our car, "how do they have our car?" And, you know, if that didn't occur to me, that-- - Maybe, maybe, maybe more than one. - Yeah, maybe five or six, so it just so happened that I saw one of them. - Well, we had something very similar to that happen in our local area. - Yeah. - Down at a big touristy place called John's Pass, which is only about 20 minutes from where we live, is they had the same thing happen. The finale was getting ready to go off, and it detonated somehow, I really haven't heard how, and it ended up blowing up the varge that all the fireworks were on, and I don't think anyone was injured, but can you imagine how scary that would be? They have a lot of cell phone videos of it. - I was gonna say, I'm sure that's something I've gotta be on YouTube. - No, it's been on the local news channel. - Okay. - Well, we'll try and post that, you know. - Happy Independence Day, everyone. (laughing) - Yeah, so. - So what movies have you seen lately, any? - Um, I haven't, no. I haven't seen any movies, and that's, I said I was gonna see a bunch of movies, and I've sort of dropped the ball a little bit, but I would like to go to see some movies this weekend. - I'm torn between two movies, feeling like a fool. (laughing) - What two movies? - The New Die Hard movie, or Transformers, which I'm really surprised you don't wanna see. I'm totally shocked. - I am just not, I don't know. It just doesn't, I enjoy movies that have a story to them. Like I enjoy the summer blockbuster, and I understand that this is like the epitome of a summer blockbuster, but I just feel like, just in watching the video, it feels like something that I've seen before a million times. - Well, but most blockbusters are, I mean, for real. But, you know, I actually really like Michael Bay. I love aliens, and I mean, I was hoping it was gonna be really good. I'm really surprised you didn't wanna go see it. Plus Shia LaBeouf, they say now he's gonna be the new Tom Hanks because he can do no wrong now. He's also in the new Indiana Jones movie. - Yeah, and he's got the pompadour. - Yeah. - Have you seen the pictures of that? - I think he's great. I've loved him since even Steven's days. For those of you who don't know what even Steven's are, go to YouTube, research, Disney Channel, 'cause he was fantastic, even as a 12-year-old on that show. - I remember him winning, he won an Emmy for that show. - Yeah, he should have, he was awesome. - And I remember him saying when he got his award that that's my mom, she's a big old pimp and pointing out into the audience. So, and they talked about it, Mario Pantone was on the view the next day and he was doing the daytime Emmy was making fun of it, and he was talking about that. So anytime I see him, that's what I picture, is him being like 14 go on my mom's the big old pimp and doing the ghetto point and sign up to the audience. - Well, the show Project Greenlight, he, the first winner, he starred in that show, which was, I have no idea who the first winner was or I don't even think the name of the show, but I remember that he was one that was in it. Him and Amy Smart, maybe? - I don't know. - I have no idea. - I don't care. - But I think Shadow of that's awesome. - Excellent. - Shadow if you don't care. - I don't care. - The fact that this is a Transformers. - Well, Rodan is the big, Rodan is the big Transformers. He's been waiting for this movie since before they even talked about making this movie. He's been just. - 'Cause he's a dork. - He is a dork. - But that's why we love him. - He's a lovable dork. And apparently he's a lovable skittier dork now. - I'm telling you what. - So congratulations to Mr. Rodan, it's not that he listens to these, so I don't know why. - He listens to what he's not in. - So, he doesn't listen to what he is in. - He's a piece of shit. - He is. - He went to the curb. - Fuck you Rodan. (laughing) Which means tomorrow I'll get an I am. We'll fuck you too. (laughing) So no, Rodan posted on the blog that he's lost a significant amount of weight. - 10% of his body weight. - 10% yeah, so congratulations. - If I lost 10% of my body weight, I'd only have to lose 12 pounds. Shut up. - Unpluto, maybe. (laughing) So yeah, I talked to Rodan pretty regularly actually, and he's doing really well. He did find a place to live. - Oh good. - He signs a, I think he signed a lease. He's not sure if he signed a lease. He signed something, which scares me when he's talking about it, yeah. - Is it a house? - It's a house. It's a house that's very, it's got brick on the outside and it sits on-- - So it's a brick house. - He's mighty mighty. Just let it all hang out. And it sits on the bayou, so-- - So jump a like at this ride. - Thank you. Every time he sits on you at the bayou, I'm like, what is that song from Steel Magnolias? And I can never remember it. - Stop the gun, you're gonna have big fun on the bible. (laughing) - So yeah, he's very excited, 'cause apparently they slipped a letter under his door this weekend, or last weekend, saying that he had to be out of the hotel by Friday. - Oh dear. - Because they were overbooked and they needed the rooms and all that sort of stuff. I don't know what the hell could be going on in Louisiana in the middle of July. - It's the parka posey tribute concert. - Yeah, well, she's not dead, so. - But she's from Monroe. Think of how many famous things have come out of Monroe. - Dr. Airlines. - Dr. Airlines Parka. - And Parker Posey. (laughing) So yeah, so he's very excited about that. And he's, that's pretty much it, as far as-- - Well, Rodianne, if you're listening, take a picture of your new house posted on the blog we wanna see. - Yeah, actually, you did take pictures of them because you sent them to me, but I'm not gonna, you know, blow his wand for him. So. - Oh, oh, oh, oh. - So I'll-- - I think you can actually take a road trip to Monroe. We can do, we can do the, you know, again, day two, Taylor cries. (laughing) I think it'll be a lot of fun. - That was day six, Taylor cries. (laughing) - They could be road rules. Monroe, Louisiana. We could have, we could have like a little set of, you know, like a cat skull with a horror and something. You know how they always had the-- - The cattle skull, yeah, we could have a little-- - Road rules, oh my god. - I love that show. I know that's sick and wrong, but I did. - Yeah, I think the first season with the guy that is like my age and he still is on there and it's kind of sad. - I know, yeah. - The blonde one, the blonde one with the big hair. - Yeah, he hasn't been on for a couple of years. He had road, he has Roy Rage, I think. - So, did you hear that Coral is now a lesbian? - I did hear Coral is now a lesbian. - Shocking. - Yeah, I should say, what a surprise. Yeah, no, those big giant boobs need to be in another woman's mouth, I'm pretty certain of it. - Oh, god. - I just report the news. I don't make it up. I am Gary Geneau. 'Cause no Geneau, this is Gary Geneau. - What's Gary Geneau? - What show is that from? - The Great Space Coaster. - That's it. - Get on board on the Great Space Coaster. I am bored, I don't know. (laughs) So, so what else is going on with you? - Nothing. - Take out a new car, he got a four door Jeep, 'cause he's turning 40, he's very old. I can now say, in one more week, I have-- - Drum and Lola will appreciate that. - I will officially have sex with a 40-year-old, so I don't know what that's like, but. - Sure you do, you were 18 once. (laughs) You didn't earn that A through reading those books. (laughs) - That's not funny, I actually did date one of my teachers. But anyway-- - Yes, we talked about that. - No, and by dating, she means-- - Went to one thing with him. - Which was a school-- - His bed. (laughs) It was the back of this car. Anyways, here we go, let's-- - She went to one thing, his cock. - Oh. (laughs) - Ew. Now, new car, and, you know, just life in general, which is driving me crazy, because I'm driving 4,000 miles a day, because it's summer and I supposed to be quiet time. (laughs) - It's never quiet around here. - It's never quiet around here. But that's good, I like it that way. - I'm here all the time. - That's awesome. - I hate all the time, and there's always something going on. - I know, but you know what, we love you being here all the time. In fact, today, once again, we weed. (laughs) - All over each other. - We weed together. We were spent. - We held hands and weed together. (laughs) - Wow, my daughter watched. (laughs) And the dog just looked confused. (laughs) - I didn't think Mommy liked it when anybody else did that on her, so. - Why is Mommy we with another bed? I thought he liked men's weeds. (laughs) - So, we didn't weaver very long, though. - No. - No, just a little. - Just a little wee. - Just a little wee. (laughs) Which is words that every man likes to hear. Just a little wee. So, yeah. - What about you, anything new? - Well, I think the big news, which I've kind of been talking about for the last couple of weeks, is that Mr. Drum Riley. Drum Riley is no longer living in my domicile. - Drum Riley has left the building. - He has left the building. So, mostly, some of this stuff is still there, and I'm still watching one of our pubs. That was the hard part, was deciding which pugs were going with the person. - Who got the kids? - I have two of them, and he is taking her, she, our black pug, and both the cats, which were his prior to our getting together. - So, you're splitting up the family? - Well, yeah, but yeah. (laughs) I don't really have anything we need to say about that, but yeah, so it's, no, it's, in many ways, it makes me sad, obviously. So, but in other ways, it makes me very happy that, you know, we're both able to sort of move on, we move on to the next chapters of our lives, and we seem to be getting along a lot better now. (laughs) - Well, that's good. - It's not funny how that happens. Suddenly, you don't like see each other every single waking minute of every day, and it's, you know. - Wait, wait, wait, you mean like you and I? - Well, that's different. You and I. - Have the same brain. - Yeah, we have to be near each other, or both of our brain shut off. - But that's good, then you two, there's no bitter ugliness, it might end up being the best decision for both of you, that's good. - Yeah, yeah, and he's moved into a new place that I've been over and seen. He's still in the process of getting it all set up, and it's very cute, and not cute in the Karen's story. - It's so cute. - We have a friend who, Karen, who we've talked about in the episode, that whenever she sees something that somebody does, goes, "Oh my God, it's so cute." And it's this patronizing, like, "I really hate it, "I can't wait to get out of here so I can talk about it." - Mine's better, mine's better. - Yeah, so any time that one of us says, "Oh, that's really cute," then we have to, you know. - Pre-umpted by saying, "No, it is actually cute." - It's a nice place. Once he gets it, one thing I can say about, well, I can say many nice things about Jerome, but one thing, one nice thing in particular, I can say about Jerome, is that he has very good taste as far as decorating, and, you know, setting things up, and all that sort of thing, and I know that when he gets done with it, it's gonna be a great little bachelor pad. - Didn't you take his shelves? Those white shelves he built at the end of the day? - No, 'cause those are-- - Like, he'd have to take the wall with it. - Yeah, he'd have to take the wall down, and he made these shelves that he talked about making for years and years and years in our house. - They're not getting, like, from some pottery barn, like, they look like some of your-- - It was something from MarthaStuart.com, and then he needed these particular things from IKEA. Well, we don't have an IKEA, and so when I flew up to Philly one time, yes, it's coming soon, I had to buy these brackets, and, you know, then I couldn't get the brackets back down, so I had to wait till another time, and then it was one of these where it took us years to finally get these brackets to the house, and then they sort of sat around in the garage for a while, and then one day he sort of said, "That's it, I'm making this." - So wait, you procrastinated? - Actually, drunk procrastinated. - Oh. - Because they were driving me nuts to the brackets, 'cause I kept seeing them, and it was just like, just to make the fucking shelf, and eventually, you know, on the inside. I never actually said that, because then it would've been, you know, while I'm waiting, another six months to make them now, yeah, so. But he eventually made them, and they're beautiful shelves. It's a beautiful shelving system, but it's-- - It's big. - It's big, it's big. - Like drums balls. - It's big, it's beautiful, and you're gonna love it. So yes, it is big, like, drunk balls. And we have the title for episode 16 now, and it's got baskets in it, and apparently, I have to actually finish it, 'cause there's a place for hooks underneath each of these brackets or something, so. - Now, do you keep, like, magazines or? - I'm not sure, right now it's got-- - Remotes and wires. - No, it's got wires, and it's got random, just shit in it, and not actual shit, but, you know, it's got, no, not light, but, well, yeah, I mean, it'll be used for stuff like that eventually, so. And I would like to eventually have the hooks and have, like, the dogs, leashes, and all that sort of stuff on there, so. And then there's supposed to be a place underneath it for a bench, so I'm gonna have to find some sort of little bench or something to put underneath it, and all that sort of stuff, so. That's the part that sucks, is because another thing the drum was kind of known for, at least, you know, in my brain was he's known for the cha-chis, and he's known for the little odds and ends, and cute little things that help to make a house feel more like a home, and all that sort of stuff. - Well, that means you get to go shopping and get out, - Right, and so now, like, as he's been leaving, it's like all of a sudden there's empty shelves, and all that sort of stuff, and it's kind of like, "Oh, okay, I didn't realize she fell into this shit." - I realized all this crap was his. (laughing) - That thought's probably gone through my head a couple of times, and other times I was like, "Oh, I missed that in that lamp there," or something, so. You know, he's a good guy, so. - He's all right. - He's all right, I guess. Huge balls, though, huge balls. - I love drum. - Yeah, he's all right. (laughing) - I love lamp. I love drum, I love lamp. - So, do we have any friends this week? - Well. - Did our listeners rise to our challenge? - Well, yeah, we actually did have some listeners rise to the challenge, and we can talk about that, and then something I totally forgot I wanted to talk about was pride. I went to pride. - Oh god, that's right. - Yeah, we actually have, where's the list? We ended up getting, at the point that we did the last podcast, we had, I think, two of the five that we wanted, and we ended up having six more. - Awesome. - So, we are at 47, so now the challenge is, I want for us to get to an even 50. So, we need three more people. We have Chris Collins, and Nessa. Nessa, I know from how much do we love boards, so I don't know if Nessa actually counts, because I sent her a request of her. (laughing) But she approved it, she approved it, so. So, she still counts within that, and she did send us an email saying that she's up to episode nine, and she's really enjoying them, so. - Awesome, that's good. - And we also have Princess Grace, and Calling Long Distance, which is another podcast, which is based out of San Francisco and London, where they talk on Skype, you know. We complain about trying to get it to work, just five miles away from each other, so imagine. - But you know what, they might have a better connection. - Yeah, and both of them kind of hot. - Oh yeah? - Kind of hot, yeah. I looked, I went to their webpage, and spent some time. Speaking of hot guys, we also have instant gratification now as one of our friends on MySpace, with Mr. Luke, who apparently Kevin from QCast has decided this is a new boyfriend, so. - There's gonna be a sword fight in your mouth at some point during this podcast. - No, no, no, with Luke, 'cause I don't think I can compete with Luke's boyfriend. Luke's boyfriend, as hot as Luke is, the boyfriend, just as hot. - Maybe Luke and his boyfriend. Challenge extended. - Yeah, yeah, those pictures will have to be posted as well on the blog. - They're 20 and have washboard abs, and I am not, and you're not. So, and we also have Eric, not A-R-I-C-K, but E-R-I-K. - Not Eric. - Not Eric. - Eric. - From the Beat for San Francisco, is that the name? Okay, but we have Eric. - Okay, that's fine. - And he's from Seattle, which is one of those places that I went to live one day. So, hopefully- - So, which explains why you live in the exact opposite corner of the- - 'Cause of the world. - You know, where it's cool and rainy, and I live in a place where it's hot and humid. - Humidly, right? - Yeah, and you think it's gonna rain, and then it doesn't rain. And you think it's gonna rain, and it doesn't rain, and you just wanna, you know. - Tell yourself. - Yeah, and you're watching the, you know, the meter out in your electric box, just goes, "Ooh!" 'Cause the air conditioning trying to keep up. - And right now, all the people in Seattle are like, "Oh my God, it's been raining for eight days. Shut up." - Oh, that's heaven. I love rainy days, because I love a rainy night. - Because rainy days and- - Eddie Rabbit said it best. - Sundays always hit you down. - Rainy days and Mondays always hit you down. - Rainy days and Mondays. - Ah, wow. You can't be right 100% of the time. - You like to think you are? - Only 99. - Yeah, so. - So what about Pride, let's hear it. - Pride was, I did a lot of taping for Pride, and it was going to add stuff on to the Pride cast, or add stuff on as a Pride cast to the end of this one. - Yeah, it's like Disney cast. - Yeah, the stuff that I taped, kind of boring. Very boring actually. - Was it just, hi, I'm passing a drag queen? - Well, well, I did talk to a homeless person. - Uh oh. - Who kind of asked to speak to me. I, things, the parade wasn't supposed to start until 10, and I knew that a couple of years ago when we went, it was a nightmare as far as parking. So I thought, "Well, I'm gonna get there early." So I got there at 8.30 in the morning. There was no one there. Except for the people who were setting up their booths. - I would go down and say, "Hey, I'll be a friend. "I wanna be my friend." - Well, that's pretty much what I just walked up to the people at the different booths, and said, "I'm doing a podcast called, "you know, how does my co-pilot?" And the first people, there was a couple of people who had chairs set up right in the middle of, where the parade, you know, down central. And I walked over to them and said, "Hi, I'm, you know, "I'm Taylor the Latte boy from..." Actually, I didn't say my name. I said, "I'm doing a podcast called, "The Pod Is My Co-Pilot, which you like to be interviewed." And their response was, "No." - Really? - Yeah, and I sort of said, "Really?" And they went, "Yeah." And they went, "Nah, I really don't want to." So I'm like, "Okay, this is gonna be hell, "the rest of the afternoon is gonna go." - Yeah. - So about five feet away, I hear, "I'm gonna be interviewed by you." - Oh, God. - And it was a homeless guy with his glasses all tilted and everything, and he was sitting on the side of the road with his shopping cart and his little gay pride flag. - But you know what, though? You probably made this day. - Yeah, I did. And I talked to him and said, "How are you doing today?" And he said, "I'm fine." And I asked him what he had to be proud of. And he said, "That I'm sitting here "watching this wonderful parade." And of course, the parade wasn't starting for another hour and a half. So I'm not sure what he was seeing. - Wow, but... - But he was having a good time. And I talked to a couple of organizations, including The Growlers. - Wow. - And The Growler. And the, what was the other one called? The Prime Timers, which is a senior gay social group. - Oh. - So it was all these older gay men. - How was the parade? - I'll get to that in a second. And I also talked to, there were some political people there. So I talked to Dennis Cusenich's booth and Hilary Clinton's booth and Barack Obama's booth. And they were all very interesting. And I asked them all why we should vote for them as president. They all have very different answers. - So you named three Democratic candidates. Was there any Republicans? - The Republican contingency? Not really there, except for the protesters. - Oh, what a good one. - And I don't know that they were necessarily Republican. I just sort of assumed. So yeah, the parade was a lot longer than I expected it to be. - Was it, what did it at least move? I don't like parades where it's like, and there's a float. There's a float. And then, you know, a block later here comes the next float. - No, things were moving, but then occasionally things would just sort of stop. Because it was the parade venue, as far as going to Central Avenue, was maybe about five or six blocks. So it wasn't very long. And what they would do is they would get down to the end and then they would just sort of disperse into the crowd. And so occasionally, what it would end up doing is it would sort of, you know, if especially if there was a float at the front of the parade, and everything would just sort of stop for a minute. I got hit in the face with a-- (laughing) If only. I got hit in the face with a little diskette that had, it was one of those where it was like a, a towelette. That was-- - Oh yeah, then you get water in it. - You get water in it expands. - So, and from the bare float. - You didn't say growlers on it? - No, it said something with the bears and it was all these big hairy guys that were all like, "Whoo, girl," you know, and all that. So, and I was taking a picture and all of a sudden got hit in the mouth and looked up and one of them was sort of waving and smiling at me. Like that was his way of getting my attention. So apparently he's into S&M or something. And then there was some creepy guy that was in the back of a pickup truck that was, I apparently wasn't paying attention to him, and he was yelling him, him to a friend of mine that was standing there, and so she tapped on me on the shoulder and said, "He wants to get your attention. Do you know him?" And the guy was just like, "How are you doing?" And I was just like, "Um, I'm fine." And then turned over. - You were the hot thing of pride. - Hardly, hardly. There was not many cute guys there early on, and I was like, it was all the lesbians. The lesbians were out early 'cause they wanted their place so they could have their cooler and be right there on the curb, I guess. - And the U-Hauls. - Yeah, yeah, they needed a place to park their U-Hauls. But eventually, all the cute guys. As it got, you know-- - Hot. - Yeah, it got hot, so that way they could all walk around with the shirts on. So, but eventually it got to the point of where, at the end of the parade, I was gonna go walk around all the festival, but it was mid-90s. There was not a liquor shade to be found anyplace, and I was like, okay, you know what? Drum lives a couple of blocks away, and he has air conditioning and bottled water. See y'all later. - And I was pretty smart. - So, I went and did that. It was fun, though. It was fun going. I would like to go another time. Well, maybe next year you can go. 'Cause you couldn't go. Yeah, you would've had fun. You would've had fun, or we would've been completely miserable 'cause of the heat. - Why don't we do a Pride celebration in October? - Well, the funny thing is that I heard, I was standing by one of the, not facilitators, but one of the coordinators. Because he was watching, 'cause the protesters came out in the middle of the street with their bull horns or were yelling before the parade actually started, and he was saying, okay, we need to call the cops, 'cause they're not supposed to be out in the middle of the actual parade venue, and they were eventually arrested. So, but he had said, I've been trying to get them for next year to have the parade at night. - Oh, without that one. - On Saturday night, and then, which is perfect, because it starts at a Georges, so the parade, they could change the venue, so that the parade ends up in Georges' parking lot. Everybody could end up going to-- - And they could have big tents set up-- - Yeah, absolutely, it made total sense. - Yeah, that'd be awesome. - And I hope I'm not-- - Where does it end then if it starts at Georges? - Well, it might start someplace else downtown, and then work its way to Georges. And then they would have the street festival on Sunday morning, so that way everybody could get there and spend time before it got too hot. - That'd be cool. - And I know they used to do something called winter pride over in Tampa, but I'm so out of the gay loop that I have no idea if they do it anymore or not. - You're out of the gay loop? - I am out of the gay loop. I'm trying to get back into the gay loop. I'm trying to become a loop hole, but-- (laughing) Because again, power bottom, but so-- - You are a power bottom. - I wish that was a power bottom. - You wish you were any kind of bottom. - I'll fill out applications for power bottom. (laughing) - Power bottom wanted. - Oh my God, that's right. - I'm sure there's a power bottom wanted.com. - That's what we're looking up next. (laughing) - Did you see anyone that you knew, like any of our listeners? - I didn't see any of our listeners. I was looking for Daniel from call box seven, 'cause he's our pictures on the MySpace page, and so, and actually a funny thing about call box seven is he and I have been talking, and come to find out he lives literally within walking distance of me. So there are these two St.P. podcasts that, you know, not focus on the gay community, but sort of cater to the gay community. - Cater to it. - And they, you know-- - Awesome. - We could spit at each other, so. (laughing) - Oh. - Not that way, but-- - Besides, it's simply like to spit, you should always tell. - Speaking of other podcasts. - Yes. - Speaking of other podcasts. - Yes. - By the way, by the by the way. - By the by. - I sent an email last night to the boys at the Cute Cast Connecticut, because their latest episode was episode 80, and they did an all 80s theme show, which is genius. - Genius, which of course we will be stealing from you, so that's good. - Yeah, an episode 80. By then you'll completely forgot about it. And they did a thing with 80s theme songs. It was Mr. B and their friend Cheryl from Orlando, so they were trying to get, guess all the names of my stories, not that boring. You don't have to yawn. - I think you can even hear that, shut up. So, he was playing theme songs, and they each had to guess, and I guessed everyone with the exception of one. - Well, I mean, were they completely obscure? - No, it was like Kagnie and Lacey. - Oh, yeah. - And growing pains and too close for a comfort, which I thought was funny, 'cause that was our theme song a couple weeks ago. So, I am, and Mr. B was pretty good. He did really well. I could do better. So I am-- - So challenge extended. - Challenge extended to Mr. B from Cute Cast Connecticut as to who can have an 80s off. - Okay, but a preamble to that is, is that do I get to help make up the questions? - I said that Michael could help make up the questions, but maybe that's something you and Michael could work together. - Michael can suck it, 'cause you're fine. (laughs) I am going to help make up those questions. - Well, why don't you and Michael work together, and that way it's a joint-- - Why, Michael? - Michael, call me. (laughs) - So, and you guys can maybe work on some questions, and actually that would be sort of fair, because in that way, it's not one podcast helping the other podcast. - That's right, too. - So, and I know that Michael is moving to Orlando, and hopefully Mr. B will be coming to visit him every once in a while, so maybe one time when they come to visit, they can come to glorious St. Petersburg, Florida. - Really? - Well, they can come to St. Pete. And-- - Do you know, one of our listeners requested that we sell pot-as-micopilot shirts that have sayings on the back of them? I think that would be a good one. Mr. B can suck it. (laughs) Coming to a store near you. - So, who, which listeners said that we should sell t-shirts? - Crystal. - Oh, really? - Yes, she said that if you wanted to get her pot-as-micopilot t-shirt, I said, "Ah, I think that's an example." - Well, you know what? Next year, if with this keeps building and we get more popular, maybe we can walk in the gay pride parade. - Oh. - Pot-as-micopilot t-shirts. - We could have all of our friends and wear the shirts. - We could have-- - And flaps. - Tank got the t-shirt. - Tank got the t-shirt. - We could stand up and wave to people and throw pot-as-micopilot bumper stickers, and put-- - Done, done, done. - I think we have a ball. (laughs) - Done, done, done. - Not a problem. That's awesome. - Yep. - Who the fuck is that? - Oh, yeah. (laughs) - Yeah, we'll have pot-as-micopilot flags. - Yeah. - And t-shirts. - That's fun. - And say, "Mr. B. Gonzakis." (laughs) - Okay. - Mr. B. L here by then. - Mr. B. and Michael. - That's right. - Yeah, they can be. - Now they are keeping the Q-cast CT name, but they are actually changing it, 'cause they're not gonna build, they're not gonna be in Connecticut. So they wanna keep the website and the email and everything, but they wanna need to come up with something new for CT. So it'll be Q-cast CT, and I cannot come up with-- - Cockties. - Oh, well, okay. - Well, that's CT. - Q-cast cockties. (laughs) Okay, I'll let-- - It kind of rolls off the tongue. No pun intended. - So does me. Actually, apparently it doesn't, if it's a cockties. - Oh, that's true. (laughs) We'll work on that. - Yeah, we'll work on that. I was racking my brain when I think it about it, and I can't think of anything. - If our listeners come up with anything, they can email us. And where can they email us at? - Pot-as-micopilot@gmail.com. - Very good. - Or you can actually send it to theboys@qcastct.com, beings of their contest, so. - CT. - Cute trainees. - Ew, I don't know. - Isn't that like an oxymon, like military intelligence or giant shrimp, or Christian rock? - There could be cute trainees, I guess. I don't know. - Ew. - CT, I don't know. I'll work on that. - Control. - Ew, that's gross. (laughs) - I prefer clit trail. (laughs) - Clit trick. - Clit trick? - Cute tricks. - I like cocktales. - Okay, well, all right. So, is cocktales the official entry? - Cocktales, cocktales is Taffy's official entry. - Qcast cocktails. - Oh, that's cute. - Qcast cocktails, and you could totally do cocktails or cocktales, or T-A-L-E-F, or T-A-A. Why don't you get any episode with a new recipe for a drink? - And also cocktales, T-A-L-E-F. - Yeah, exactly. Okay, so those are our two entries, Michael and Kevin, would be cocktales. - And cocktales. - And cocktales. - Yeah, we win. (laughs) We win. - In our minds, we win. - Always the blue ribbon. - Right. So, is there anything else going on? - I don't think so. - Okay. - I'm sure we'll have more next week. - I'm sure we will, and there were things that we were gonna research. What was the thing that we said we were gonna research, and why are you flashing your boobs at me? - I wasn't, there's lactic on the waistband on my shirt, and I pulled it when I did it just like-- - So then it's like cleavage, no cleavage. - It's nothing you haven't already seen before, do you? - Trust me, because-- - I know, girl parts scare you. - Again, not all girl parts. - Just fine. (laughs) - So. - I'm-- - Fair listeners, we love you. - Okay, so as always, you can visit us at potasmycopilot@gmail.com. Oh, that's my email. That's the email. Fuck, I fucked it up this time. So, you can visit us at? - I don't know. I never know this, you know this. You always put me on the spot. You can visit us at-- - What's our website? - Potasmycopilot. - Yes. - Dot com. - There you go. - Thank you. - Say it all together. - @potasmycopilot.com. - Thank you. And you can email us at potasmycopilot@gmail.com or you can visit our MySpace-- - Be our friend. - Be our friend at myspace.com/potasmycopilot. We also have a Facebook page, but I still haven't figured out how to send everybody that-- If you have a Facebook account, search for potasmycop-- Actually, search for Taylor T. Latheboy. That's the name because I had to give them a name and they wouldn't accept potasmycopilot. - I know nothing about Facebook, so you're gonna have to walk through it. - I will show you Facebook later on. And we also have a forever map and I haven't checked that for ever either, but I'm sure nobody's-- - I check our forever map. We actually get-- - How many do we have? - I don't know. - Then-- - I check it, I didn't say I knew the number. I didn't, did I say that? No, suck it. Suck me, beautiful. - You're an ass. - All right, so for now, this is-- What's my name, Taylor? - What's my name, bitch? - What's my motherfucking name? - That would be Taylor and Taffy. - All right, bye. (laughing) Yeah, I know it's never gonna listen to this. Bye, lovers. - See ya, bye. (upbeat music) (upbeat music) (upbeat music) (upbeat music) [BLANK_AUDIO]
