SPEAKER_01: 0:00

Once at the cemetery, Andrew chose who we were going to partner with. I got Xander, and Nikki got Carter after being shot down so fast for the suggestion of Jay. So fast. Mike was just like, no.

SPEAKER_02: 0:14

I had to shoot my shot, but it was an immediate no.

SPEAKER_01: 0:17

It was from all. Even Andrew was just like, no.

SPEAKER_02: 0:21

Exactly. Mike was like, no, Jay was like, no, and Angie was like, a gentler no, but no, nonetheless.

SPEAKER_01: 0:28

No. I attempted to keep my cool, but when she turned on Nikki, oh, I snapped a little. And then I tried to regain my composure. You don't fuck my bestie. I can talk call her a twat. No one else.

SPEAKER_02: 0:45

Yeah, don't fuck with, but okay, sorry. Yeah. I was gonna go to go on a weird tangent.

unknown: 0:54

Okay.

SPEAKER_01: 0:54

Well, we're all about the tangents today. But Carter and Nicole seem to bond more than ever. Especially as Carter got an erection. And Nicole covered for him seamlessly.

SPEAKER_02: 1:06

Thank you for adding that. Thank you for adding the because I covered for him seeming s seamlessly, because otherwise it's like we bonded more than ever because he got an erection. Like that's how I bond, guys. What?

SPEAKER_01: 1:20

Well, let's be honest, it's not far from the trial.

SPEAKER_02: 1:23

Uh no.

SPEAKER_01: 1:28

Definitely not behaving. Someone's and that takes us up. A punishment. Oh no, it doesn't.

unknown: 1:36

No.

SPEAKER_02: 1:36

Punishment on the bus. Punishment on the bus.

SPEAKER_01: 1:40

Yes, there will be punishment coming my way. Who knows when?

SPEAKER_02: 1:44

It's gonna come at your face. You can't just leave me here forever.

SPEAKER_01: 1:55

I'll see what I can do. Hang tight.

SPEAKER_02: 1:58

Oh, thank you. You're saving my fucking butt, even though you're a bit like, what the fuck is wrong with you?

SPEAKER_01: 2:04

Yes, but I'm used to your bullshit.

SPEAKER_02: 2:07

Yeah. I'm not always the sort of thing.

SPEAKER_01: 2:09

And I also sim plus I also sympathize because I know what's sort of going on with you.

SPEAKER_02: 2:14

Yes, you know a bit more than they do. I'm like, oh.

SPEAKER_01: 2:18

Yeah. I can see what's going on, and I'm like, oh fuck.

SPEAKER_02: 2:21

It's just it's just too much, basically. It's just even a good thing, it's just too much. It was an inside gig. It was weird to be surrounded by civilization again. Wow. I know what I mean.

SPEAKER_01: 2:36

With the plebeians.

SPEAKER_02: 2:37

But it sounds strange. To my surprise, Noah pushed his face into my chest. I I did invite that. I did invite that a little bit. I mean, do it. If you take the opportunity.

SPEAKER_01: 2:54

Yes, please do bury into our breasts.

SPEAKER_02: 2:58

Don't make me tell him, Jason warned. Jay asked me to stop making it obvious that I was into him. I said awkwardly. Now that wasn't awkwardly. I was very confident. I don't I don't give a shit. I don't give a shit. I don't give a shit what it looks like. Let me try that again. Yeah. I don't give a shit what it looks like. Oh that's just slightly less western. Hang on. Uh oh my god. Oh my bloody fucking shit.

SPEAKER_01: 3:41

Not you too. I'm sorry.

SPEAKER_02: 3:43

I'll do it again.

SPEAKER_01: 3:46

Whereas this, it's just like, ooh, quick change shirt.

SPEAKER_02: 3:50

Yeah, that's true. I do easily take off.

SPEAKER_01: 3:52

Like it's like being it's like being back in the wings.

SPEAKER_02: 3:56

Exactly.

SPEAKER_01: 3:56

Do a costume change.

SPEAKER_02: 3:58

Exactly. Which by the way, I'm doing this Friday night, uh, Saturday night, eight costume changes. Yeah, you are. Eight costume changes. Holy shit.

SPEAKER_01: 4:07

That's a lot. That is a lot.

SPEAKER_02: 4:10

Yeah. I worked it out. It's like all m m give or take every like six songs or so. Or eight. Yeah, it's a lot. Yeah. With no second guessing whether I was doing the right thing. Which I absolutely was not. You were not. When the guys came on stage, the crowd went wild. And of course, so did I, being in the crowd. Oh my lord. I was high when I wrote this, I'm sure. The they played a mix from across all their albums. It was absolutely different watching them from down where I was. One week on tour with the band, and suddenly I've forgotten what it's like to be in the crowd. I'm like, it's so different watching from here with all the normal people. For instance, I sweated a lot more. I now know what sweat is. But I felt like a real fan, and that's what I wanted. Or that's what I wanted for one night. I looked so big from where I was. So amazing. So unreal. Dighead.

SPEAKER_01: 5:24

Oh my god, that oh, that's hilarious.

SPEAKER_02: 5:28

Mike was standing on the ego booster, looking out to the audience. Are you having a good time tonight? He roared over the microphone. Everyone cheered, and Zonda supported the statement with some cheeky riffs from his guitar. We've got some friends with us tonight, Mike announced, and we're going to dedicate this one to them. So here's to them. They know who they are, he continued. And those little brats better be grateful. He laughed. Woohoo! I stood flabbergasted, gaping as they started playing the song. I didn't think they would. I certainly don't deserve it.

SPEAKER_01: 6:06

No, you do not. I do. You do not.

SPEAKER_02: 6:10

Terrible. He doesn't know I don't deserve it yet. My heart glowed happily as I watched them parade across the stage to their astounding music. Later that evening, I said good luck and goodbye to the guys and Bella. Zonder, Noah, and Carter hugged me. Mike refused to let me go anywhere before he duct taped my phone to my forearm. My goodness.

SPEAKER_01: 6:37

Genius! I should have done this to you a long time ago.

SPEAKER_02: 6:41

Awful. Is this really necessary? I asked him disgusted. People will think I'm a nutcase. Okay?

SPEAKER_00: 6:49

You are.

SPEAKER_02: 6:50

You are. People will know I'm a nutcase. Yes. I don't give a shit what it looks like. He told me seriously. Now, you know where it is, and when it rings, you fucking answer it. This is an unbelievable overreaction. I complained as the rest of the band sniggered. Is it though? I don't feel I don't think it is. After everything.

SPEAKER_00: 7:15

Limiting your bullshit. Exactly. Limiting your bullshit.

SPEAKER_02: 7:19

You are on some drugs when you wrote this. I don't know what was hap- I know what was happening. I was trying to describe the band's the band's feeling. The band's feeling. The feeling of watching the band on stage without giving away too many things that would make you realize who they are. So it's really difficult because it's Vegas ass. I dialed busy busy.

SPEAKER_01: 7:46

Billy's number.

SPEAKER_02: 7:47

Fucking slip because he he certainly is busy. He's the head of security. Why am I calling Billy? He has things to do. Because you have his number. That's true. I I it's the only number I have.

SPEAKER_01: 8:00

You don't have the others.

SPEAKER_02: 8:01

I don't. Well, you have mine. That's true. I have yours. I don't and I have Melissa's, but I don't have Billy's. Yes. I don't have any of the bands.

SPEAKER_00: 8:11

You do not.

SPEAKER_02: 8:12

Oh, now we're in we're in Italy. Shit. Um Mamma Mia. Mamma mia. Pass. Wow, what? Pass. Pass. Yeah. I was not far off. Pass. We walk down the hallway. You uh uh you look a terrible. Oh shit. Let me take it.

SPEAKER_01: 8:38

You look a terrible.

SPEAKER_02: 8:41

Oh my god.

SPEAKER_01: 8:42

You're making the Italian up.

SPEAKER_02: 8:45

You look a terrible. We're gonna go to the taco joint and it's gonna be hella weird. Yeah. Uh uh. You look uh terrible, Carter chuckled. Thanks, I said glumly. You're also amazingly charming. I meant I meant you're smiling. You're not smiling like you usually do after a show. Oh shit, it's all fucking. Ah yes! Jason shouted, making all of us jump, then calmly. Being human is overrated. Okay, I smiled. I suppose that makes two of us.

SPEAKER_01: 9:25

I don't know why, but that bit, Jason doing that, sort of reminds me of Lilo and Stitch. You know, when she's talking about giving the fist tuna, and it's like, why is it so important? Um, that he gets his sandwich on a Tuesday night. Put control Pudge controls the weather. Yeah. She's got I right and she's like super passionate, and then it's just Put controls the weather.

SPEAKER_02: 9:52

Yep. That's that's kidding, that's Jay. That's got Jay energy. Yeah. That that is it's just yeah. Let me try it again.

SPEAKER_01: 10:00

From zero 1000 to 2.

SPEAKER_02: 10:03

Exactly.

SPEAKER_01: 10:04

In two seconds left.

SPEAKER_02: 10:05

I told you I'd tell him if you didn't, Jason added.

SPEAKER_01: 10:09

Little side note here. Bit of a dick move though, because he did give you till after the show, and then he didn't wait till you even got backstage before he did it. So you literally didn't have that time then.

SPEAKER_02: 10:21

No, but yes, but when beforehand, you should have told him already. He gave me 48 hours and I know he I know he did, but I'm defending you.

SPEAKER_01: 10:31

Shut up and let me.

SPEAKER_02: 10:32

Thank you, but there was I'm also I'm defending Jay. Because I know you are there's a part of me that's probably thinking he was he probably realized when I didn't have my didn't take my backstage pass. He a part of him might have been like, that little mmm, and just like gave up with it.

SPEAKER_01: 10:52

That's fine. You know what I mean?

SPEAKER_02: 10:53

Because maybe he a part of him even thought I did it on purpose. I know I didn't, I'm just a knobhead, but yeah, you know what I mean?

SPEAKER_01: 10:59

Okay, yeah, no, that makes more sense. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02: 11:02

I don't think he was just like being like, you know, Jay would never Jay is never malicious with anyone. No, but the thing is he he does defend his brothers like to the death, yeah. Yeah, so yeah, you could see where this is coming from anywhere. Yeah. Plus, I need the tough love, to be fair. I need it.

SPEAKER_01: 11:26

You do, yeah, you do.

SPEAKER_02: 11:29

Jason asked me to stop making it so obvious that I was into him. I said awkwardly.

SPEAKER_01: 11:34

Make it more awkward. Okay, make it more awkward Be more awkward! You can do awkward, come on. I want if that's a hold on. I want us to get I want you to take out that little clip of you me and you going, yeah, yeah, yeah, just so I can send it to Haz just to annoy him. Where we we just did it, we just spent a while going, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_02: 12:02

Well, I'll need to go find it once we are done.

SPEAKER_01: 12:05

Yes. So I would like that little clip, please, if you remember, when you're doing editing. Okay. Okay, sure. Hold on. Hold on one second. Yeah. So we're saying goodnight and goodbye before we've even left the Yeah, because we're about to go to our rooms.

SPEAKER_02: 12:25

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01: 12:26

Yes, but we're in the lift. And now we've said goodnight and goodbye. We're awkwardly carrying all out.

SPEAKER_02: 12:33

Yes. This is how this is how I roll.

SPEAKER_01: 12:37

Yes, apparently.

SPEAKER_02: 12:39

It also works for the rest of it, so shut the fuck up.

SPEAKER_01: 12:42

Yeah. Okay.

SPEAKER_02: 12:43

Go with my flow.

SPEAKER_01: 12:45

Okay.
