What's up guys, welcome back to Views. We are back with Natalie. Jason's here. Natalie has been spending a lot of money this last week.
Yes, I have.
Big time spender.
Big time.
Over $300,000.
Unreal.
I think she's full-blown like sugar mama now.
Yeah, I know, for sure.
So the last vlog she bought a Ferrari.
Yes, I did.
And then gave her best friend $100,000, which also she's throwing around the word best friend like so easily.
David's really offended. Yeah, she was like, stop saying best friend.
She's been talking about her for like the last like month. I know, I know.
You said when she said Tierney, I was like, I've never heard of anyone named Tierney.
Yeah, I was like, what? She's like, let's— I really want to go give my best friend like money. She's going through a time. I'm like, uh, I'm your friend and best friend at that.
I've never gotten money.
I've never gotten money from you.
Do you have a lot of broke guys in your DMs now?
Um, I do have a few.
We should clear up also the fact of why you bought a Ferrari.
Yes.
Because I feel like it's—
I don't want people to think that I'm like some ballin' multimillionaire, have all this money to spend. It was all like—
Yeah, with all due respect.
Yeah.
Like, Natalie, this is the first car Natalie's ever purchased on her own.
Yes.
I bought her the Bronco and the Mercedes. Yeah. So, like, she's had a lot of time to save. Yeah. For, like, a really, really special car. And she's been looking for a while. Yeah. And what, she's been doing this job for 10 years?
Yeah.
She doesn't spend money on anything, actually, if you think about it, because every time we— like, even if you see her travel, it's all for work. So I'm either covering it or a brand's covering it.
Yeah.
So this is the first time I've seen Natalie splurge. She bought a house.
And how does it feel?
Yeah. How does it feel?
Honestly, I feel great. Like, I'm so— well, I'm just— well, it all went to like, obviously the car was a very personal, like, I've been looking for a long time for a car. I definitely spent more on that car than I had originally anticipated on spending for a car. Yeah. But at the same time, like, I fucking love that car. You do? Oh, I love it.
Oh, you just posted about it like a day ago. Have guys hit you up or no?
Um, like guys that I know or random guys?
Guys that you know. Um, yeah, a lot of, a lot of my friends, because I feel like that's a good in if I've been wanting to talk to you, is like a Ferrari purchase. It's like a good bridge between a guy.
Yeah, nobody that like I'm interested in—
nobody's trying to hook up with you?
Yeah, no one's like, hey girl, let's go on a date in that Ferrari.
I guess it is like a little bit different, right? Like girls getting a Ferrari could actually be— I even was honest with her when she was buying Ferrari. She was like, you think this is going to help me with guys? And I was like, honestly, it actually may do the opposite.
Probably not.
It may like scare people away, right? They'll be like, what the fuck? Why does she have this and I don't?
But when have you had a nice car and you, you caught the eye of a girl because of your nice car? Never. Girls don't care about cars.
I think—
I don't know. I'm not like driving around and girls are like, can I hop in? Yeah, but like, does it happen like behind me knowing? I'm sure, right? Like, I'm sure there's a girl that's like me because Corona gave me a Ferrari.
And how was your friend?
Yeah, how was the surprise?
It was great. I mean, like, I was so, so nervous. I was like shaking, could barely sleep. Like, I don't know.
She denied it for a while.
Yeah, she did not want to accept it.
She did not want to accept the money. She was like, take it back.
Even like, like, even I've like given her like small gifts, you know, she got married and had a baby and I'd given her small gifts for those occasions and whatnot. And those to her were like enormous. So this I think was like almost incomprehensible.
What's the appropriate time? What's the appropriate number of times to say no when someone gives you $100,000?
Like how many times you turn it down? Yeah, I think it's case by case. I think with grandma, twice.
Twice.
I can't. I can't. Yeah, take it. Take it.
Yeah, give me $100,000.
Give you $100,000?
Yeah, yeah, right now.
As David to Jason?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh, Jay.
No, David, no.
Wait, what?
David, no.
I haven't even said what I'm doing.
Oh, oh, go ahead, Jay.
Jay, I want to give you $100,000 for your kids. I wanted to save it for here on the pod.
Please, I can't. I can't take that from you.
That's fine. It's okay. I don't— I guess I'll just keep it if you feel bad about it. I'll keep the money.
I would talk myself out of it.
That's actually a really funny way to surprise somebody.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Sorry.
Yeah.
Bye.
Be like, I'm going to surprise someone with $10,000, but if they say no, if they say no, I'm going to take it back immediately. Not going to give it back to them. That's really good.
We had an idea like that the other day.
We did. We had that. Did we talk about it on the pod?
No.
Yeah, it was a really good idea of it. And then Faris squashed it. No. Do you?
Yeah, it was. Okay, so we surprise 10 people or like X amount of people with $1,000. And the person with the worst reaction, we like give them $50,000. But we thought that would play weird in the video. Like, you reacted so horribly to this.
Yeah, they'd be so confused.
That we want to give you even more money. Okay. Yeah, so we didn't do that.
And by the way, the thing that you were eating in the last episode, everyone guessed it.
Oh, they did?
Yeah.
Did they?
Yeah. Well, not down to the brand.
I got a death threat about— one death threat.
Why don't people like the eating challenge?
Somebody's like, I'm going to slit your throat if you eat again on the pod.
I love it.
I love the eating challenge.
Yeah.
So did people guess that it was a chip, a tortilla chip?
I saw tortilla chip. I saw tortilla chip from Chipotle, tortilla chip from Chipotle. And I don't think they got it.
No.
Where was it from?
Tortilla chip from Takaya.
Takaya.
So you don't owe anybody $100, thankfully. Yeah, because there's no way anybody was gonna guess Takaya.
It was you. It was you. You were gonna give the $100.
Really?
Yeah.
Oh, I thought I was gonna match your $100.
No, I don't think so.
Remember, this podcast is—
Did you know that tortilla chips— this is gonna sound like I'm a fucking idiot, but like, really think about it and it like really fucks you up. What?
No, I just— I know what you're gonna say and it's not that crazy, but go for it.
That a tortilla chip is from a tortilla. Yeah, but I didn't know that.
I never thought about that.
Wait, what? You guys didn't know that? You just cut up a tortilla chip, throw it in some oil or tortilla.
But I, for some reason, I thought obviously it's the same thing.
Yeah.
But I thought you take a little bit of the tortilla and it blows up into like something the size of a chip. Like I was eating tortilla chips like they were like fucking celery on the side of my meal.
Oh, I see.
But now when I eat Chipotle and I have a bag of chips, That's like me getting my burrito quadruple wrapped.
I know, for sure.
Like, what, one burrito tortilla makes like 6 chips?
Yeah, probably.
That fucks me up. Like, now that I know that, for some reason, like, I can't eat chips like you did before. Yeah, I can't, like, I can't participate in the same way.
Why?
Because I think it's like, I think it's fucking gross.
Yeah, it's a lot. When you're consuming chips, it's just a lot of calories.
What do you think of queso?
I fucking love queso.
It's so much.
Did you see this new TikToker that's blowing up?
No.
His name's Davis.
Oh, yes.
He showed me. He's like, I have to ballpark, like 13, 14-year-old kid.
Yeah.
Maybe a little— no, 13, 14. And he just reviews cafeteria food. It's fucking incredible. He's like—
He sits in the lunchroom.
He's the cutest kid. He's like, okay, it's Davis here. Today I'm reviewing, I have chicken nuggets, I have barbecue sauce. So cute. And all the comments are, first of all, they're like top brands. It'll be like Kraft mac and cheese will be like, Wow, Davis just mixed the ranch with the ketchup. There's a lot for me to think about. Lots to unpack. Yeah, it's like, and then you'll have like, it'll get like 3, 4, 5 million views. Wow. And the top comments will be like, I'm a 33-year-old man at my job. No idea why I'm sitting through this 4-minute food review of this middle schooler or this high schooler in his cafeteria, but I'm doing it. It's really fucking good.
You watch a lot of food reviews?
I watch so many. I love a mukbanger. You do? Yeah, um, my favorite—
Natalie loves food.
I think her name's Kealia. She eats like the big—
she's the one with the big mouth?
Yes, she always wears like big red lipstick. Yeah, and she eats like burritos and she dips like— she gets a whole cup full of like Raising Cane's sauce, dips the whole thing in, like submerges it, and then takes— oh my God, it's like incredible.
But it's the way their lips cover.
Yeah, it's like the way that she looks specifically while eating the burrito is like so satisfying.
What does she do? She has like a pleasing face, like she's very pleased? Like what makes a good food reviewer?
I think she's like a pretty girl and she makes a messy thing look beautiful.
Cute. Yeah, she makes it look cute even though she's fucking devouring.
I think that's like a real— I've always, I've always had like a concern of whether or not am I, am I, am I good at eating or am I bad? Because people are sometimes captivated by the way I eat food, but I don't know if it's like a negative thing.
Um, so the— so this is how I decipher between you and someone like Kealia. She makes it look cute and you make it look like you're about to like choke and die when you're eating. Like your eyes bulge out of your head.
But is it the same amount of retention? Like, are you still—
No, because I'm not— like, I'm looking at her and I'm like, oh, this is cute. It's satisfying. You're doing it. I'm like, ew.
I know, but are you looking at us for the same amount of time?
No, I have to look away from you. Her, I can watch the whole mukbang.
So last episode we talked about AI and Jason was like, how do you think AI is going to change the creator landscape?
You didn't have an answer.
Yeah, well, now I have an answer. I've been thinking about it. I think there's going to be new types of creators. So I've been on— I've been using the AI app, doing some research for the podcast, for the Sora. And I'm starting to see creators like emerge on there that are actually like, like, okay, so this guy, for example, he posted a video and one of the top comments on his video is, your prompting is god tier. Mm-hmm. So people are like so excited about this guy because the way he prompts and the way he tells AI to do things is really incredible. So, so Jason, let's say, so, so his, this one page that he has, I assume he has multiple pages. But this one page that he runs is just a cooking page. So he has an AI chef cut open an AI turkey and make AI food, right?
Okay.
And what you would say to your AI if you wanted to make that, you'd be like, can you show me a chef in a white outfit cutting open a turkey and stuffing it with gravy?
Yeah.
Or whatever. That's what you'd say. But this is his prompt.
Okay.
Which is crazy.
Yeah.
And his food looks so hyper-realistic that you can't even— you can't tell that it's fucking AI because this is a prompt. He goes, style and tech, cinematic grade, soft anamorphic bokeh, gentle lens flare, shallow DOF, f/1.8 to 2.8, HDR, global shutter, natural motion blur, macro-capable, 50 to 85mm equivalent, key light, 3000 to 3200 tungsten at 45 degrees with diffusion. Subtle back rim light to outline steam and glaze. Warm palette, golden brown skin tones. Desaturated background for subject isolation. Camera ultra slowly dolly in with slight handheld breath. Extreme macro of rolled pork on a board. Fresh stream rises. Micro specular highlights sparkle on the rendered fat. That's scene 1. That's just scene 1. Scene 1 takes about 3 seconds.
All for a turkey video.
Yeah, no, this is a piece of rolled pork. And then he'll go to scene 2, 3 to 7 seconds, memory of heat, close-up on the crust. I can't read that word. Thin glossy glaze moving with micro vicious flow. Camera 45-degree slider move, mid-shot rack focus, front crust to rear sheen.
Jesus Christ.
Sound gentle sizzle, tail tiny oil crackles. So like, so this guy's fucking directing AI.
He sounds like he's AI. How do you even put that string of words together?
Do you think he has like a film background to know all those lenses and stuff?
I think that's what I think. I think this is what's making AI kind of interesting is it's literally, I know it's taking away jobs and it's making creativity a little bit tougher, but I think it's just like reskinning what we see creativity as. I think this is the problem with, this was the problem with TikTok. I always said when TikTok was Musical.ly first, I was like, oh, this is gonna kill my vlogs for me. Like there will be no way to compile as many funny things as you can get on a scroll in TikTok. And that's because everyone on the planet, I believe that everybody's funny. Everybody at least has one funny thing that happens to them every month. And the only thing is, how do you get it out there to the audience? And that's TikTok, right? And TikTok has made it so easy for anyone to be funny. Like, your friend from your hometown who's never had any social media can make one good joke and it could get 5 fucking million views, and everyone's seen it. And everyone's like, have you seen that TikTok? And people will be like, yeah, I have. That's it. She's gotten it out there. And with little— she didn't need anything. And now, now it's even made filmmaking accessible, and it's going to. So now your fucking hometown friend who wants to make a short film and maybe doesn't want to make a funny goofy TikTok now can make the short film in her fucking room.
Wow.
Can go, this is exactly how I want the scene to go. This is where I want to shot from. This is— I want this on a Steadicam. I want this on a handheld.
Would you ever AI a scene for your vlog?
I thought about it. Like, I thought about, like, she surprised Tierney with the $100 grand, right? Her best friend. And I was like, Nat, you know what's crazy is that could have all been AI. Because like, we went to Chicago to film it. And I was like, you could have actually sent her the money. Yeah. Just sent it to her. Yeah. And we could have still filmed it.
Just like AI generated.
And AI generate the whole— I could have been like—
Well, not at this point.
No, no, no, no. Not at this point.
But yeah, eventually.
I will never do that.
Yeah.
But I was just making an example that like, Natalie could easily type into a prompt like, friend who's been friends with this girl for a long time. Her mom is going through some stuff. She needs help.
Emotional, upbeat girl giving the money is super sexy and the most beautiful woman in the world. Yeah. And you just send them right out. Enough prompting.
Yeah. Wow. Yeah. I mean, it takes like all the work out of it. Like you just, it just does it.
Well, it takes everything out of everything.
Yeah.
So it's like, well, now Hollywood movies are, they're totally doing like So much AI in all the movies being done right now. Well, I heard what they do now is they used to do 20 takes of a scene. Now they do 3 takes and they can take those 3 takes and morph them into the 20 takes. So you save an hour.
Oh, and have 20 takes out of the 3.
Yeah.
Oh my God.
Yeah, it's incredible.
Maybe my dream of recording one podcast will soon be— could you imagine? What if we— I think we're a year away from people not being able to tell if we record a new podcast or if it's AI. Oh yeah, isn't that fucking crazy to think about? Yeah, all of a sudden you're like, we're doing 2 episodes a day. People are like, this is suspicious.
Boy, these guys are really on it. Yeah, Dave must love the podcast again.
Each episode is 6 hours long. They're really, really fucking into it.
I found some pretty good facts about Napoleon. Dynamite Napoleon. What was his fucking name? Not Dynamite, the ruler. Napoleon Bon Appetit? Bon Appétit?
Boner part.
Boner part.
Boner part. Napoleon Boner. Napoleon sometimes disguised himself as a commoner and walked the streets of Paris asking people what they thought of the emperor. It's pretty good.
It kind of sounds like you.
Yeah, it's very me-coded. What do you think of David? Handsome, isn't he? Then it says Napoleon sometimes carried roast meat in his coat and handed out bites to soldiers like little snacks. I love that, first off, because I That is something I want to be. You know how old people have those fucking caramel candies in their pockets?
Yes.
You want to hand out mints to them.
I want to hand out mints or like Tootsie Rolls or something. I think that'd be fun.
Try the meat with John Castro. See if he'll take it.
John would work extra hard if I had beef jerky in my pocket. But you know what? I actually don't think these Napoleon facts are real.
Oh.
Because the next one says Napoleon famously wore his hat sideways so he could stash a big baguette in the fold.
All right, sounds like a hungry guy anymore. Nothing's real. I know, damn it, nothing's real. I mean, Jake Paul's not real.
No, Jake Paul's actually gay. I actually, you know what, I don't— I mean, who knows, maybe Napoleon was like really vibey like this. No, oh, Bonaparte, there we go. At least we, at least we figured out the last name.
Is that it for the fun facts? He just fed people and—
well, I can't give you more after that fucking one that says he put a baguette in his hat.
But like, baguettes were a pretty big deal back then.
Maybe he No, he wouldn't.
Natalie, he's a fucking comedian. Big-ass hat.
He wouldn't.
He wouldn't do that.
It'd be a big-ass hat.
Um, well, if you could be born into any time period, which one would you be born into? That's a really good question that I just came up with.
'70s.
'70s?
Yeah.
For what?
Go to like, uh, go to like Studio 54. That would be cool.
You think they'd let you in, Jay?
You think it's just—
you just have access to the coolest—
I'd work at it. I'd find my way in.
Okay.
Yeah.
You're still Jason Nash in the '70s, right?
Okay, but who knows? Maybe I would be a star then.
Maybe that is when you would shine.
Yeah, maybe. Maybe that'd be my thing, you know?
I'd be like 1980 so that I could be like a teenager in the '90s.
What's so great about being a teenager in the '90s?
I just like think that the '90s were such a fun time.
That's a good way to put it.
Like what? Like grunge music?
Um, grunge music, just like— not really grunge music, I don't know why I said that.
I used to—
pop culture. Is Hilary Duff in the '90s?
That's not what was cool, dude. What was cool is like you could call your friend to hang out. And by doing that, their parents would pick up and you'd have to ask if your friends are at home. Like, that was the cool part. Landlines, no cell phones.
Yes, that was fucking sick. I don't actually—
can't even conceptualize how we used to hang out pre-internet.
That's kind of pre-internet, but not super pre-internet. We're like, it's—
I don't even— I can tell you what it was like pre-internet. I remember when I got a phone.
That's crazy. I got a phone too, but I want to be like— I want to be like 20 in the '90s. And like here in LA going to the clubs, doing the thing.
One of the first times I got a boner was, it was when it was kind of pre-internet and it was, so there's this game on the computer. It was, um, the Snake Game. Huh?
The Snake Game?
No, no, no.
It was like, it's like, think RuneScape.
Okay.
But like, um, it was, uh, yeah, you could like interact with multiple people and you'd walk up to somebody and you could talk to them and you could chat with them.
Okay.
And I was like 14 at the time.
Yeah.
So, and you're like, you're an astronaut bouncing around Mars. That's basically the game.
Okay.
There's no concept to it. You're just bouncing around. It's very early 2000s game.
Yeah.
I was 14 and I bounced up to like somebody who's a female in the game and I was like, hey, and I started chatting her up and I lied to her about my age because I figured obviously like you can't be on there when you're 14.
Yeah.
So I was like, hey, I'm 20 years old. And you flirt with the other astronauts. And she goes, "Hey, I'm 15." And I fucking freaked out. I was like, "Fuck! She's my age!
She's my fucking age, and I lied to her!" But then I started talking to her more.
I was like, "I actually lied. I'm actually—" And I don't think you could say your age, 'cause I was 14 at the time, so you had to get around that. But yeah, I was flirting with her as an astronaut, and I got a boner.
You got a boner? Wow.
Isn't that crazy?
I remember hearing a party line for the first time. A party?
Yeah.
Like you would call in, you would, you would call this phone line and then you'd be like, this is no, before the internet. And you'd be like, you'd be like, hey, what's up? And then someone, someone, someone would be like, hey, how's it going? And then some girl would be like, hey, what's going on? I'm in, I'm in one.
Oh, like chat roulette but for phones? Yeah.
Yeah.
Wait, what?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Wait, wait, wait. You'd call a random person and you could just like flirt with them?
You call the line and then you get sent in a room and then you start talking to people. When you're like 14, 15. Oh, that's sick. Yeah. And people weren't as fucking crazy as they are now because I remember being on there and like nobody was like, I'm going to fuck your pussy.
No one said anything bad.
Oh, it was just like literally just people wanting to talk.
Yeah, it's your generation that lost your minds.
Yeah, that's really sick. Do you remember when—
Do you remember that concept was probably so nouveau that people were just like, hello?
Hi, who are you?
Yeah, that is really crazy. Just connecting to random people. Yeah. But chat roulette and Omegle were like the best times of my life. There wasn't a sleepover that we didn't do Omegle. Yeah, there was not a sleepover. Just being video conference with random people. I thought all the hot— we were again 15, 16 at the time. All the hot girls were always in California. So I had this like fucking crazy perception of California. I was like, it's just hot girls there, dude. It's just hot girls. I think honestly, that's what sparked me wanting to move to LA to— when I was doing Vine, I was like, it's all them. The sun for some reason cooks them to the perfect hotness. Um, so yeah, that was a big part. And then remember when— I don't know if Jason, you know this, but there was a time where you'd call somebody and they could have the setting that it'd be like, listen to some music while your party is reached. And then you'd hear like Metro Station pop up. Yes, yes.
I remember this.
Only like the like the most angsty, like, okay, so this girl, not angsty, but like this girl named Rhiannon. Yeah. Rhiannon had this on her line. Rhiannon was like—
such an angsty name.
Rhiannon had like cool DC shoes, skinny jeans. Her shoelaces were neon and like very shoes.
What is that?
What is that? Scene-y?
Yeah.
Yeah.
What is that? Yeah. What is that like? Like emo?
Like not goth?
Not emo, but like fun emo.
Like a skater. Yeah.
Skater.
Skater.
Avril Lavigne.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. And she was one of the only people with that ringtone. Like, when you would call her, it wouldn't ring, it'd stop your ring and it'd be like, please listen to some music while your party is reached. And you'd be like, you'd hear the full song, but it'd be really, really bad. It'd be like so muffled. It'd be like someone's recording it. Someone put their phone next to it and recorded it. Yeah, it'd be really bad. And then I used to borrow I had like a really shitty phone, so I'd have to borrow Alex's to text Rhiannon. I had like a crush on her, so I would borrow John and Alex's phone to text her and flirt with her on their phones.
Did you ever go on Facebook and look her up or anything? You ever like, do you ever do that? Look up girls you had a crush on in high school and see what they look like now?
Well, Facebook was—
I used to dominate Facebook.
Yeah, like I used to like—
When you were a teen?
Yeah, I looked like— I loved Like, well, when Twitter came out, I had this big thing in my head that I needed more followers than Natalie. And when Facebook was around, it was all about how many likes you can get on a status.
Yes.
Oh my gosh. And the most popular status that always gets you the most likes is this thing called Truth Is. Yeah. Do you know what that is? Oh my God. So you'd make a status and you'd say, truth is, and then people would like it. Everyone that likes it, you go on their wall and you go, Truth is, Rhiannon, you're really pretty. I wish I got to hang out with you more, but we don't really see each other too much. I love you. Text me.
Something like that.
Oh, so you'd like— you'd— and you'd fucking pray to God that the hot girl from school would like comment. Likes that. No, likes the truth is, because then you can write on her wall and it's like a big—
fuck, you're being like really open about your crush. You—
I mean, no, you'd still be shy when you comment on their wall. But it's like you only made the status to see how many likes you would get and to get those like 2, 3 people that you really want to like it.
How many likes we talking?
Uh, fuck, like the most popular girls? Yeah, I think I was pulling like probably 70 to 90. Damn. Yeah, which is pretty badass.
But like, pretty badass.
There would be like really hot girls that are like the popular girls in Lake County, like that, like come to the fair and you're like, oh my God, she's fucking here. Like, uh, like when she was there, it was like a big deal. Um, she could pull 250 likes on a Truth Is. Like, shit. But again, and then she'd— it'd be one of those, like— and the biggest flex was after you got a lot of likes, you'd make another post on your own wall being like, hey, I can't get to everyone today. Like, that's how you're like, goddamn, dude, Melanie's so busy. Melanie's so busy knocking these out, she doesn't even have time to get to them. She's so fucking popular.
What a time.
Did you ever have people in high school that, like, suddenly became hot, like, out of nowhere? Yeah, we had two girls in our high school that like in 9th grade, no one ever said a fucking thing about them. But then by 11th or 12th grade, it was like, oh my God. Yeah, yeah. It's really interesting.
Do you have a story of yours? Because I have the most specific moment when a woman— when a girl became hot.
I don't have a specific moment now, but—
so in senior year for us, I may have said this on the pod already, but senior year we had this like everyone goes to everyone. Well, you should talk about your sister's senior year tradition because I think that's crazy. Right after this, remind me. But So senior year we go, they like rent it out like a party venue and everyone goes there and they brought a hypnotist. Yeah. And the hypnotist pulled out random people and there's this girl who's like a theater girl, kind of quiet. And at the time you'd separate in your head, right? Because you're a kid, you're in high school. The hot girls are hot. Yep. The theater kids are theater kids. Yes.
That's what happened. The theater kids became hot. Yes.
Yes, exactly. That's happened for us too, because in high school, yeah, you're like, you threw the balance off. Yeah, it's not— theater kids don't become hot till college. Yeah. 'Cause that is when everyone just becomes, oh, you're just a per— like, this is segregating the theater kids and the popular kids.
Like, that's fucked up.
You only do that in high school for some reason. But anyway, this girl got hypnotized, and the hypnotist, which now thinking back is kind of weird that he did this to like a high schooler, but he was like, pretend you're a supermodel and this is your big show and you're on the runway. And she like flicked her hair back and like all of the guys All of the guys were like, jaws dropped. What the fuck is going on? What? Yeah, we were losing our minds.
She got hypnotized and changed?
Yeah, in that moment she got hypnotized and like turned on the part of her. Yes, that was hot girl. Like, never— like, I don't think she ever used it. I don't think she even ever knew. Unleashed it. She's just like, yeah. And I'm telling you, every guy in the room was like— after the thing, after the thing happened, And like the little crowd dispersed. It was all students. It was like all 80 to 100 kids watching this happen. And after everyone got off stage, like the girls went— shit, I said her name. The girls went to her and they were like, oh my God, that was so crazy. All the guys literally formed a little group and they were like, did you fucking see what I saw? And everyone's like, yeah. And then like my guy friends were like, I think I'm going to try to get her number. And like I had no pull in high school, so I was like so jealous. I was like, fucking good luck, bro.
Let me know what happens.
Let me know what happens. And that was like a big deal. That's so funny. Yeah, that changed everything.
I had a friend in high school, I had like a really, really, really good friend, but we were in two different social groups, so we couldn't hang out. But I would talk to him every day.
Like, he wouldn't, what were the social groups?
He was in like the cool, like emo, Depeche Mode, like they smoked. And I was friends with like the jocks. But I hated my friends.
So you couldn't hang out with them?
Yeah, so I'd be like, we should hang out, and they'd be like, yeah, but you can't really come here, and I can't really go there. But I would talk to him every day, the fucking best. He was so funny. His name was Josh Kell. And then one day when I was in— when I was living here, maybe like, I don't know, 5 years ago, I'm running down by the beach. You know, I like to run down by the beach. It's my favorite fucking thing. I'm fucking running down by the beach. No way. Go ahead. I'm running down by the beach, and, and I run by a little apartment on the water, on the water, and through a screen he goes, Jason Nash! No way.
Jason Nash!
No way.
And I go, I go, what, what? What? Like that. And he goes, it's Josh Kel. No way.
Yeah.
And I go, shut the fuck up. And it's a screen, so you can't see his face. And I'm like, that's really funny. And, and I was like, someone's fucking with me. Like, someone knows about Josh Kel. And he's like, I swear to God, man, it's fucking me. It's fucking me. I'm here on business for 6 months. Wow. And, and then I was like, and, and he fucking came outside and I was like, What the fuck? It was the best.
And then you had sex? Wow.
And then I had sex with him. Yeah. And then we went and had drinks and he was like, still so funny.
Wait, that's crazy.
You guys still smoked?
You guys went to hang out? Yeah, it was the best. Wait, that's cool. Wait, wait, when did you see him? In high school? What year was that?
Or in, uh, in high school we went to— we were the same grade, so 9th, 10th, 11th.
Oh, sorry, was it in high school is what I'm asking? Like in high school when you guys had different friend groups? Yeah, yeah.
But it was such a weird thing.
And you haven't seen him since high school? No.
And it— and I wasn't And I wasn't smart enough to be like, oh, I'm just going to go hang out with my best friend. I was just like, oh, I can't.
Did you guys talk about that when you guys hung out? Yeah.
He'd be like, yeah, it's fucking weird. I mean, I can't stand your friends. And I'm like, yeah, I can't stand yours.
Did you talk about that when you met up with him again? Like, did he have the same— like, did he remember it the same way? Yeah.
Yeah.
He remembered it the same way, too.
He wasn't like, you wouldn't let me come hang out with the jocks? No, no.
He was just like, yeah, that's just the way it was. Wow.
That's really—
I would have let him hang out with the jocks.
Did you grab his number?
Yeah, I have his number. Wow. Yeah, but he's not— Josh Cow. He was from Chicago too.
Oh, so where— wait, where did you guys go to school together?
Well, he moved from Chicago to, um, to Medfield, and so then he was just like this cool kid that came from Chicago, and everyone, everyone is cool. He would quote Ferris Bueller, and he called Ferris Bueller— he would quote Breakfast Club. He knew every fucking line.
Oh my gosh. Wow, that's really funny.
I like Chicago people.
Wait, what do you mean he quote that? Those movies probably just came out right then and there, no?
They were maybe like 15 years old or 10 years old. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Damn, Jay, that's fucking quite—
imagine if that was like— that's crazy. If that was like your high school crush, that would be a serious moment. Maybe one day I'll run into the girl from the hypnotist thing like that.
I love a hypnotist that comes in in the last period and like you don't have to do anything, or they bring in like a speaker.
You'd have that a lot?
Yeah, not a lot, but maybe a few times.
My favorite is when they would roll the TV in. Did you ever have— you probably had that. Yeah, they roll the TVs. I don't know how fucking old you are. When they would watch—
No, we didn't have TVs. Really? No, not then. Not in 1990. TV wasn't around yet.
When was it? I can't tell if he's fucking with me. Wait, wait, wait. No, no, no. Obviously had TVs. Did you have TVs in school is what I'm asking? Yeah.
Oh, okay.
We watched the space shuttle go down in school.
Oh, right, right, right, right, right. Yeah, yeah.
That was crazy.
I don't know why I'm bringing up that stuff now.
Yeah, no, they definitely had TVs.
Were you around for Napoleon?
Napoleon I knew. We went to high school together. Napoleon Dynamite?
Yeah. Um, okay, wait, what was your sister—
what's your sister's tradition?
I think this is fucking crazy. My sister—
my sister's high school is like 5,000 kids. It's a massive school back in Chicago. Wow. And on the last day of school, they have this tradition called Senior Sunrise, and they only live like 25 minutes outside of the city. Um, so everybody—
and the train runs right through the town. Yeah, and I mean like right through the town, like the— it's like suburbia and then train tracks, so you like walk 3 minutes and you're on the train.
And when you're on the train tracks, you can, if it's a clear day, you can see the city, whatever. It's really easy to get to. So when we were in Vernon Hills, we didn't really go down to the city that much, but my sister would go pretty frequently because they were so close. And so she has this thing called Senior Sunrise and on the last day of school, it's a couple hours long. So the night before, they all take the train down to the city and they spend all night together. They bring a blanket and they go sit at, it's called Concrete Beach. Like right on Lake Michigan. And they all, they stay up all night talking, hanging, probably drinking, whatever. And they watch the sunrise and then they come back for school the last day of school. Yeah. Like hungover, drunk, exhausted. And they do their last 3 hours of school. But it's like this big bonding moment that they do.
They pull an all-nighter. I don't know why I find this crazy. Like I'm 85 years old. I know. They pull an all-nighter and then they go to school.
And what do they do all night? Just drink?
Just drink, hang out, walk around, and then they go to school.
Yeah, I don't really get it. I also— my complaint with that is like the last day of school, I want to be sharp. Like, I want to— like, I remember my last day of school, I was like, why do you want to be sharp on the last day? Because I am sucking in every last memory. Like, I am absorbing it like a sponge. And like, the last thing I would want to be is like intoxicated or tired.
Like, what are you sucking in?
I mean, everything. You look at everyone's face and you just start like, dude, I remember when we were all in the field house.
Did you run for class president?
I'm not a fucking loser, Jane.
It feels like something you would want to do if you're so into high school.
No, I liked high school because of the lack of responsibility. I wouldn't want to give myself responsibility. High school to me wasn't real. High school was like, you fuck off and you do whatever you want and you get to hang out with your friends. Dude, it's my heaven. I love high school. So yeah, so the last day we were all in the field house and we were all like in our— oh my God, we were all in, uh, we were all in like graduation gowns. Like, I'll never forget that, just looking at everybody like, this is fucking it, brother. This is goodbye. This is— this will never again happen in my life. I will never be here ever again. Isn't that crazy to think about? Yeah, I don't know, because I can right now in my adulthood, I can do— if something happens to me tomorrow, I can most likely do it again in a week. Oh. Can't do that with high school. You'd go to jail.
Right?
So, um—
What do you think about this? Charlie's going to Utah on a 13-hour bus ride this week. Why? They're going away for 5 days.
Charlie's in high school? Yeah. What's the—
How would you fare?
Wait, 13 days?
No, 5 days, 13-hour ride.
What kind of field—
is it a field trip? They're just like going to Moab. I hate that shit. To be in the desert. Did you guys ever like do like a—
Like her friends or is this like through school?
No, school, school. The whole school's going. Interesting.
We did Camp Edwards. No bathroom. What the fuck you mean?
No shower in the woods. They shit and shower in the woods.
Natalie, shut up. In a hole.
It's called camping, brother.
Natalie, what are you talking about? They shit and— what are you talking about?
I mean, I'm sure there's— I'm sure there's like—
it's high school kids. You're not gonna have them fucking pee and poop in a hole, dude.
No, they poop on the ground.
No, they don't.
Maybe there's a porta-potty, but there's no shower. Yeah, it's Moab. Have you ever been to Moab? It's like gorgeous. You can probably get out of it if you wanted to, but it's probably like such a big bonding thing. And you get a certain amount of points for going too.
Nope, hate it.
Hate fucking it.
Couldn't do it? Couldn't do it.
But you're in high school. That would be you with all your friends and you wouldn't have to do homework.
I've had the same mindset since I've been a high schooler. I fucking hate camping. Okay, okay. I hate the outdoors. I hated Camp Edwards. We went to the fucking—
What was Camp Edwards like?
It was like a YMCA camp in Wisconsin.
Summertime or during the school year?
No, during the school year, so there's no kids there.
It was like fall.
You could rent it out. Yeah, in fall. And you would just do a bunch of outdoor activities. You would have like a small group. Everyone was assigned to different cabins.
It was like 15 kids.
Was that fun?
But it was a whole weekend, like away from your parents. Your teachers are your chaperones.
The best part was midnight service that I've talked about. There was this guy named Felipe. I don't remember that. I had a fun group because I had like the popular kids in my cabin. Yeah. And like some funny guys. And then we had Felipe and Felipe did this thing called midnight service where he got fully naked and he ran into each of our bunks. I told you the story. I just think it's so funny. And like, and he would like— everyone was laughing. It was so funny because he'd like—
an adult ran naked into your—
no, he's a student.
He's our age.
The adults didn't stay in the cabins. No.
Yeah, it was just the kids. Oh, okay. And the cabins were like— they were cabins, so there's no one could hear what's going on in the cabin. So Felipe was chaos, straight up terrorizing us. And it was so funny when it— when he would go to each and every kid until he— until he turned his attention towards you, which I've said this word for word, but until he like until he focused in on you. Yeah. Then it became not funny. Then you're like, Felipe, get the fuck off me. But then he'd leave you and then it'd be really funny because he'd go to the next person and continue. Like, that's the only thing I took from camp that was absolutely incredible. I don't like not being able to shower.
I don't like—
I was like that. No.
Well, they had showers at Camp Edwards. I know.
I don't like public, like, I swear, flip-flops. I'm scared of touching the ground. I don't want to get athlete's foot. Like, all these things I've like, I don't know.
I just actually, my, like, one of my friends from camp is back there like spending the weekend there or whatever.
At Camp Edwards?
No, no, at Camp Robin Hood. Oh, okay.
And oh, Natalie went to like a rich person camp.
Camp Robin Hood.
I went to like a very like middle of the lane camp, sleepaway camp. Like there was camps that were way bougier. They had like TVs in their fucking bunks and shit, like, and carpet.
What was yours?
Mine was just pure wood, shower stalls. Like you had to go walk outside to the shower house. I mean, it was not nice really.
By any means, but I hate camping. There's nothing worse.
We should go. We should go camping. All of us.
We should be so fun. It would be so funny for the vlog. Let's go.
I know it sounds— I know it will be funny.
You want to go glamping?
No, no, no, no.
We gotta actually— I don't like glamping either. Glamping's fun.
There's a great spot up in Santa Barbara that's glamping. You get a little cabin.
I'm sorry, I really can't. It's beautiful.
Oh yeah, you hate the— you hate the water. I don't—
I don't even like, um like super nice $20 million house in the woods on the water. Yeah. Even if that— even if you consider that glamping, I don't like it now. I've never liked it. I've never liked it. There's something that I think my— I think it's my parents did this to me, but my parents loved nature so much where it made me like I would fucking hated it.
Did they make you go out in nature?
Well, after church, I was like, so happy that I finally got my church out of the way. And I was like, time to go home.
And they were like, gaming.
They were like, we're not going home, we're going for a walk. And then we'd go to some fucking forest and we'd walk around on a path with other families walking around. I was like, why the fuck are we walking on this path? I'd lose my mind. And I think that's what got me into like hating, like, the outdoors, hating the outdoors completely. I was like, because I was never there on my own accord. It was—
have you ever had a nice moment in the outdoors? Ever, like, looked out?
I don't know why you're looking at me.
Looked at the view, or like, if you had a peaceful, like, feeling right here at my home? I always look right here in my mansion.
No, no, no. Like, like, when I moved to LA, I'd, like, drive up to, like, view spots. Like, I like that because it was like you're, like, dreaming about what the city holds and what you can do here.
And in LA, it is kind of foresty here.
It's different though.
Yeah, it's That's kind of what I'm thinking about.
No, I never really—
You ever been in like Mykonos and fucking looked out at the ocean?
No, I never did that.
And been like, holy gosh.
I think you just named his probably like least favorite place.
I hate Mykonos, so I was like— That's also a really weird spot to look at the ocean and think, holy gosh.
Well, there's mountains there, like it's high up, so you have like a great vantage point over the water.
Yeah, but there's also like acid and all these drugs that are just like, that are fucking ugly. Nightclubs?
I don't know what you did there, but—
Well, there's like a lot of distractions. No, I left right away. We all went for like a trip and they stayed there for 4 days.
I left day 1, didn't even check into his room.
No, I was like, give me the fuck out of here. I did not like— I did not like Mykonos at all.
All right, don't like—
I don't know, um, but do I like ocean stuff? I don't know.
Have I ever looked at the ocean?
Even like when we like were like, we should like go get a nice boat and like go to Malibu or something, he's like, fuck no, why would we be on the water? Like, he hates it. It's so weird. And it's like such like that natural pleasure of life.
Yeah, just like embracing the outdoors. And you're hard to eat with too.
I don't know, but I find joy other places. It's not that I'm miserable ever. I just—
no, no, no, you just— there's certain things you just— I would never ask you to do.
Yeah, like if you were like, Dave, let's open a Corona and light a cig and sit on the cloud couch. Sure, anything. You said this funny— what did you say? You said this funny thing about if you let me smoke indoors. What did you say? Oh yeah, who are we with?
I don't know. I don't know. I said if you'll— Dave will go anywhere if you could smoke indoors. Maybe I was at Scott— where's Scott? Oh yeah, Scott's like, come down and vlog at my house. I'm like, well, can Dave smoke indoors? He'll come if you can let him smoke in the house.
No, I've been wanting to see Scott's house. But yes, if you— if you're like, you could smoke indoors, yeah, I'm— I'm there. I don't care if it's 2, 3 hours.
You can smoke in my house. We're gonna have a Thanksgiving party inside. Yeah, I'll let you smoke inside with the doors open. Right. Yeah. We'll open the doors. Yeah.
I always look at like, I don't know, I have like this weird thing about smoking indoors because like all my friends' parents used to smoke indoors and the ceilings would be like yellow. Yeah. Like, is that how it was in the '70s? I always see like movies, like back in the day. Yeah.
One of my friends, her mom smokes indoors and she has one spot on the couch that she's always sitting on to watch TV. And like that whole side of the room is just yellow. And like brown and gross.
And it smells, right?
Yeah, I mean, yeah, the whole house obviously smells crazy.
How we got rid of smoking.
Well, that's what we were thinking. Like, I don't know what we were doing on the plane, but then one of our friends was like, isn't it crazy how like they used to just let you openly smoke in there?
What would that be like? I guess, is there ventilation in the plane so it wasn't that bad?
No, I'm sure it was fucking terrible. I just think nobody cares. I don't understand how nobody cared.
I think it's also funny how it was like smoking sections on a plane. Like, you're on a fucking tube. Yeah, like, the plane's a smoking section, brother. The whole thing. But I've also seen things about planes. I don't know how much of this is AI or real. Knowing me, it's all AI. But I've seen, people always make TikToks, like, planes used to be so much fun. And it'll show a plane with a dance floor or an open, or a bar or some, a dance floor is pushing it, but a bar.
Sure, they had a bar on the TWA.
Yeah, what happened to that?
How come they don't do a bar? Because for money reasons, would you rather have a bar there or 10 more seats? Yeah.
I don't know. I don't know. Well, to be honest, if you can go run the airlines, then yeah, if you're charging more on the tickets and you're charging more for—
I mean, that's just not what it is. It's like people can barely afford to get on the damn plane.
No, I know, but I'm just talking about like an experiential, like, travel thing. Like, they have cruises, right? Cruises are really cool.
You have a jet suite.
Jet suite is not it, brother.
Like, I know what you mean. Why isn't there a plane that has like a bar and an experience?
Yeah, like a cruise is a boat with fun stuff on it.
Just can't be— must just must not be profitable. Really? Well, what do you mean? What are you gonna do? You're gonna have 100 people spending $10,000 on a ticket? You might as well get a fucking private jet by then.
No, because it's like for the camaraderie. It's like the same reasons like why, like, like you go on the Four Seasons yacht that they just started. It's like for a nice room, for the lowest tier room, it's like $20,000 for the cruise, and for a nice room it's like $250,000. So, so let me fully book.
So let me ask you about that. So let's say I did have $20,000 going to the Four four seasons yacht.
Am I getting—
am I really getting camaraderie with rich people? Am I? Like, okay, so don't you think they're just like keeping to themselves?
So people say that's the benefit. Yeah. Is you're like rubbing shoulders with other people, you're networking. Yeah, right. When you're asking if that's actually happening. Yeah, 100%. Yeah, I think so.
I guess so, if you get into those rooms.
Well, I think there's like social things, there's like events, there's dinners, there's— you're laying by the pool.
We went on a cruise, it was a goddamn mess.
I don't think people are paying $20,000 to $250,000 for the week to not mingle with the other people on board.
Have you ever been on a cruise? No.
No, have you not? No, never. It's interesting.
Yeah, I've never done it. The only thing, the one we went on was good only because we got to stop in like Cannes and we got to stop in Italy and we got to stop in— Yeah. But otherwise it's insane. And the fact that you'd go out there and anything can go wrong. Yeah, but— You know what I mean? You're out in the open ocean there.
Don't they have like serious safety precautions now?
Have you seen those videos of, you know, when the ships—
The shit cruise? Yeah. What was the shit cruise?
Yeah, the poop cruise.
The poop cruise.
The Netflix special.
Yeah, where like all the toilets were clogged. Poop was like filling out into the fucking hallways.
We were watching this show on Netflix last night, and it's about a quarterback from USC who was a cocaine dealer, big cocaine kingpin. Wait, really? Yeah.
And a quarterback at USC?
Yeah, he was a backup quarterback, but he became a cocaine kingpin. Wow. He worked with the Sinaloa Cartel in Morrochican, in Ingalls. This is crazy. How did this guy get a show and we can't get a show? I'm like, he's in jail. He's in fucking jail. Like, that's how he got a show. You want to go to jail?
Also, that's just like really interesting. Like, you were like a quarterback at a crazy university and also a kingpin in selling drugs.
Did you ever hear about the guy that was in prison? He's like a really charismatic dude and he went to prison for drugs and he's in jail and he's fucking— he's in prison. And then the cops come to him and they're like, hey, You're so charismatic, everybody fucking loves you. All the women in here that have prosecuted you love you. Fucking the judge loves you. You're in jail, you're stuck here for 10 years. He's like, there's a guy coming into this jail, we think he's a serial killer. We want you to go be his bunkmate. Oh, we'll cut down your sentence and you can get him to talk. And so this guy— it's a whole story, it's like up on YouTube, you can see it. It's such a fucking cool story.
He gets him to talk and he gets him to talk.
And when you see the guy, you're like, oh, this guy is charismatic. This guy's cool as fuck. Wow. Yeah, it's so cool.
And then they took time off his sentence. Yeah.
And I don't know if he's out of jail or not, but such a cool thing. Hey, Charlie said this to me.
That's really sick.
We talked about Charlie's school before, but she told me this yesterday when I picked her up. Me and Brandon Kelvio went and picked up Charlie yesterday at school. And she basically said, she's like, they were talking about school and they were talking about movies. And someone was about to— they were about to, like, talk about movies and what they liked and what they didn't like. And the teacher stopped them and was like, you can't say what you do or don't like in this school. Oh, no. Because a parent or a kid might be the— their father might have produced the movie or directed the movie. Or isn't that interesting? Whoa. I thought that was so weird. I was like, oh my God.
Oh, wait, that's really interesting.
Yeah, that's kind of strange.
No, that's not that strange. Really? That makes sense. I bite my tongue about— movies I don't like when— well, strictly when we're at like award after parties or anything like that. Yeah, like I'll never be like, I didn't like a movie or anything because everyone's fucking worked on everything. But that's really crazy, right? So that's how many like nepo kids are in this fucking— yeah, school that you can't talk shit about movies.
Hey, remember the other night? Remember the other night when you guys were like, yeah, we, we went to Craig's, you should have came. And I go, no one invited me.
No, we didn't hit you with that.
We went to Craig's, like my favorite restaurant. Oh, okay. Well, next time let me know about it. That's really funny. I'll try to read your mind next time. Just show up.
All right, guys, that's all the time we have for today's podcast.
Thank you guys for listening. Thank you, Jason, for joining me. Go listen to his pod. Thank you, Natalie, for joining us. It's been such a vibe seeing Natalie be here blossoming, giving her friends money. Blossoming. See you guys next time. Bye-bye.
