Transcript

Tell us about your brain. The reason why I'm in brain maze right now is because I started this morning with a very early morning voice therapy session.
Yeah, sure.

Which I'm in the sort of depths of I have no idea what I'm doing. I have no idea if I sound different or better.
I have no idea if I sound good.

I have no sort of sense of control over anything that I'm doing. And then I chose to follow that with approximately nine hours of podcasting.
And then this motherfucker, Riley Quinn, just

casually voice mogs me in

minute minus one of my own goddamn podcast. I hate, I hate her.
I hate this young shit, passoid.

This passoid piece of shit.

She got it so quickly and i'm just floundering around baby i'm with you i literally tried i attempted to do voice training and found out that there's literally something wrong with my throat so naturally right after that i started the podcast of course well i mean yours seems to have just worked anyway i don't know if that's true maybe but no thank you clue whatsoever what i'm doing

i mean i i okay

how about this yeah we can even we can even cut this out if we want but no but as someone as someone who's spoken to you multiple times a week for seven years, you do sound different. Thank you.

Thank you. I think you seriously, you genuinely sound different.
I thought you sound real.

That's great. The thing is, it's like having a sort of a keyboard with no letters on the keys.
Oh, I thought you meant, I thought you were making a reference to me

blasting the chest. It's like having a Korg synthesizer in that I like to blast my friend's eardrums with it apropos of nothing with no warning.

I was playing around with the setting and I had the game turned up and it was plugged into my mixer.

I like how my plan is to keep talking about my synth,

but never actually play it. I need to be in a higher register.
But never actually play it. Never actually play it.
Wow, that's so interesting. Yeah.
But never actually play it on the show.

Unexpected item in the bagging area. Unexpected item in the bagging area.
That genuinely is my phrase for locking in: unexpected item in the bagging area. Good.
Good. Bagging from fire.

No gods, no maz. Yeah.
Maybe the problem is that my phrase for locking in is 3-2-1, Mark. Oh,

it's kind of the issue. All right, Give us your countiest 3-2-1.
Yeah, hit it.

All right. So, what I'm going to do, so I'm going to tell you, I'm sitting straight.
My shoulders are back and relaxed. Nice deep breaths.

I'm thinking about resonating behind my teeth as opposed to in the top of my throat. That's correct.

And I'm going to loosen.

I'm thinking about my neck muscles loosening and running down my shoulders. Uh-huh.
Uh-huh. Three, two, one, mark.
Oh, that's pretty good. Motherfucker.
I hate, I hate her.

Anyways, oh my God, welcome to a podcast with three transsexual women. That's right.
None of whom

has any idea how they sound

to others. Nobody, honestly.
And I'm not joking. Do not tell me how I sound.
I'm not interested in hearing about it.

Do not really me. I'm the one who needs the feedback because I don't know.

Ideally, I would need the feedback in like real time, like the kind of

yay or nay tracker on like presidential debates and stuff where I can tell.

Like if the, if the like, if I slip into a slightly deeper deeper tone I need to see some like appreciable thumbs down from chat you need the New York Times's needle I do I mean you need the girl needle I here's the thing well Riley also needs to Riley also needs the girl yeah Riley also needs the girl needle if we're being honest

this is a bonus episode so we can do the whole thing about Riley transitioning actually if we'd like to yes and we get away with it we're not trying to get anyone involved you're starting to actively frustrate not just us but the listeners as well so now you have to do it i'm leveraging your desire to please the listener people from my real life are like what's up with that

to me you do know you do know that i am nothing if not um like a very like i think good host yeah i think i think if i was

and as your guest i'm asking you won't you take some of this lovely estrogen gel yeah

i brought some i brought all my astranial valor to the party and i brought all this big basket of needles it's a potluck. You told me.
I had something to try on you.

Someone asked me this one because they said this cracked their egg.

So this is the thought experiment, right? See if this one, if this one like breaks it for you. Wouldn't it be so crazy if this worked?

I think it will. I'm locking in for this one because

this came very highly recommended to me. It's like, this is the thing.
This is the tactic. This is the tech.

And the tech is you go.

All right. If you could transition now or literally never, like, like if you don't do it right now, you develop like an, like a, like an allergy to estrogen.
You can never transition.

It isn't something you can put off or see or like wait about. You have to do it now or it never happens.
Are you transitioning? Are you asking me? Yeah.

Is that me?

Yeah, I will say also, I think I'm allergic to the carrying liquid in the injections. I get a weird bump sometimes if I I don't wipe it away with an alcohol thing.

I mean, it's possible. I don't know.
I'm not an endocrinologist. And even an endocrinologist is barely an endocrinologist.
An endocrinologist has very little to do with the carrying oil.

If there's anything I've learned, I'm not a carry oilologist. Hey, hey, Riley.
Yep. Answer the fucking question.
I'm going to go. It's curious how you dodged that question.
Yeah, you really.

You're doing like oceans 12 laser dodging. Built an exact replica of my gender.
Yeah, I'm just like, no, I am. I am Julia Roberts.
Actually, answer the question, Riley.

I'll answer it in private, not on the podcast. Okay.
Hey, okay. That's great.
Man, let them listen.

It's like, you know, like sometimes in like boy bands and stuff, they like wouldn't tell you when the members had girlfriends because they wanted you to imagine

that you could date them. Yeah.
So I think Riley is doing that for the listener. Yeah.

The listener needs to, needs to believe in their heart of hearts that they can crack Riley's egg if they try hard enough.

We're going to do a live show at some point in the next couple months.

And I think what we're going to do is we're going to have Riley sit in like the Lucy from Peanuts psychiatrist booth that says crack my egg.

No, in the Charlie Kirk booth. Steve Your eye.

Crack my, I'm uncrackable. Prove me wrong.

And everyone's allowed for $5,

you get one minute with the girl and you can try and crack her egg. That's the thing.
That's going to, that's going to book up so quickly. I know, but think about how much money we'll make.

The thing is, Nova, you identified my relationship with gender very early on as one of

trans.

More like,

I'm not particularly bothered about really any of it. Uh-huh.

Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah. Like, oh, like, I'm not interested in masculinity.
And like, what I do is sort of like, you know, people can do whatever.

I'm trying to expand the definition of what masculinity is. And then next year, you'll be non-binary.
And then the year after that, you'll be a woman. I'm just saying.
I'm just saying.

I don't know where I would get those ideas from. But

look. Look, do you want to talk about the mayor? I want to talk about some, I want to talk about what goes before the mayor.
Uh-huh. Do you want to talk about the municipal roundup? I do.

A little segment called municipal roundup. Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah.
Oh, yeah. It's no gods, no mayors.
It's no gods of mayors. Yeah.
I'm the mayor. I'm the mayor.
I can do this at a higher. Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah. I love my nut to go to yeah.

I don't want to go into an American accent just when I'm doing this. It's actually helpful to do an accent sometimes, I've heard.
Yeah. There's a little segment we call municipal roundup.

And before we do municipal roundup, I have a brief visit once again from the Municipal Department of Corrections and Adenda.

These motherfuckers.

Dateline.

Internal affairs. They're flying the helicopter over our car like in goodfellas.
Dateline, Quebec. Yeah.

South Tucson, it was motels, not car dealers, that advocated for the separatism of the city. It was motels.
Okay, I've got one more as well for the addenda and errata from

blue sky user Pavel, I believe is how you pronounce. this.

Lego Meistranden, whatever. Anyways, from someone on Blue Sky, we have mixed up.
One more place that is common in Napoleonic law is the difference is Quebec.

The province level is Napoleonic. I forgot about Quebec.
And federal is common, yeah, which is very interesting. I forgot about Quebec.
I can't believe I did that.

Thank you for the Blue Sky user whose name I cannot pronounce on air. God damn.

Anyways,

I wonder if it's fish if I swear less, but on the other hand, I really want to nail a perfect

front resonance high-pitched motherfucker. Yeah.
I think you're pretty good there. I believe in you.
Because that was your like your mantra award. What was that? Was you locked up? Motherfucker? Yeah.

What if I just locked in perfect him? Motherfucker. Motherfucker.
Yeah.

Motherfucker. Motherfucker.
So there's another new subsection of municipal roundup that I think has been a long time coming,

which I am calling the London Fog, which is, of course, about London, Kentucky. London, Kentucky.
That's where they have the fog. Yeah.
What other London could we possibly be talking about?

Play the Stinger, Sam.

Thank you very much for the thank you for the show racks for uh which I commissioned that for

yeah.

So

this is uh two new lawsuits have now emerged against embattled London Mayor Randall Weddell. He's it's it's one embattlement after another with this guy.

He's more embattled than any single person I've seen. He's running from like city council office to city council office like the end of throne of blood.

But instead of arrows, it's just lawsuits.

It's the climax of one battle after another, but on each, the top of every hill is another city hall. And he's just.
