01:52.636 --> 01:54.797 [SPEAKER_01]: It's one of your fantasies to perform on a gay cruise. 01:55.438 --> 02:02.564 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, because then after the show, I envisioned myself to sort of like eating the all you pay buffet and then potentially making up with strangers. 02:04.427 --> 02:05.168 [SPEAKER_00]: I would say this. 02:05.288 --> 02:06.789 [SPEAKER_00]: I had a great time. 02:06.809 --> 02:11.552 [SPEAKER_00]: The cruise comedy in general, just kind of like a heart. 02:11.692 --> 02:12.573 [SPEAKER_00]: It's really hard. 02:12.673 --> 02:14.914 [SPEAKER_00]: There are some people who are so good at it. 02:14.994 --> 02:18.657 [SPEAKER_00]: I was with Ross Hernandez paired with her. 02:18.937 --> 02:19.377 [SPEAKER_00]: And she was. 02:20.798 --> 02:43.255 [SPEAKER_00]: on fire and I kind of just did okay and one night even bombed and the thing about the cruise is if you bomb then you go to the galley the next day and you see you think of them maybe like 150 gay men and two lesbians who might have been there who are looking at you like 02:48.798 --> 02:56.883 [SPEAKER_01]: And statistically speaking, even though there might be thousands of men on that ship, the 100 who saw your show are going to be the only people you see the next day. 02:57.523 --> 03:00.025 [SPEAKER_01]: And I want to understand that that is how the universe works. 03:00.285 --> 03:05.388 [SPEAKER_00]: Well, in the cruise, it went to Mexico, went down to PV. 03:05.528 --> 03:06.388 [SPEAKER_00]: I never got off it. 03:06.508 --> 03:08.269 [SPEAKER_00]: I never got off the boat for eight days. 03:08.329 --> 03:09.010 [SPEAKER_00]: I was on the boat. 03:09.820 --> 03:16.103 [SPEAKER_01]: And was that for, like, a emotional safety reason to do you have a fear of seeing the world? 03:16.163 --> 03:16.784 [SPEAKER_01]: What was that? 03:16.844 --> 03:25.728 [SPEAKER_00]: I think I've been to all the places in Mexico that it was going to and what was nice is when everyone got off the boat, the boat was empty. 03:26.569 --> 03:33.933 [SPEAKER_00]: So I would like go to the restaurants that I hadn't gone to and I would go to the gym and I would enjoy the facilities. 03:34.473 --> 03:35.894 [SPEAKER_00]: There's like my own lives. 03:36.714 --> 03:37.715 [SPEAKER_00]: Yes, exactly that. 03:38.467 --> 03:46.911 [SPEAKER_01]: Which, by the way, I think a homalone gay edition actually sounds stunning and I think Brennan Skinnell might be the person for the job. 03:46.971 --> 03:47.451 [SPEAKER_01]: I don't know. 03:47.892 --> 03:53.874 [SPEAKER_01]: You have, if I compare you to McColle Corkin, does a feel offensive to you or do you take it with stride?

04:12.086 --> 04:13.387 [SPEAKER_01]: Who do we blame, babe? 04:15.737 --> 04:18.661 [SPEAKER_00]: I think I blame the Catholic church, sure. 04:19.822 --> 04:21.324 [SPEAKER_00]: I was raised Catholic. 04:21.445 --> 04:26.171 [SPEAKER_00]: I Irish Catholic, everyone I knew was Irish Catholic when I was a kid. 04:26.191 --> 04:29.576 [SPEAKER_00]: And because of that, 04:30.835 --> 04:44.887 [SPEAKER_00]: I was surrounded by a lot of Irish Catholic kids, but then I lost a lot of Irish Catholic mons, and those mons became like my best friends, like my best friend going up her name was Susie, and she was like my friend Mark's mom. 04:45.908 --> 04:54.296 [SPEAKER_00]: And I think because of that, I just have always been, even as like a six year old was like a little gay man. 04:55.221 --> 05:13.593 [SPEAKER_01]: I think you should get your real estate license, which by the way, I'm sure in come, I can only alleged that Susie probably opened up to you about things that she would normally not open up to a 10-year-old child about maybe about her career switches about her husband. 05:14.113 --> 05:18.756 [SPEAKER_01]: Do you remember her opening up about things that were probably telling the line of appropriateness? 05:20.263 --> 05:39.161 [SPEAKER_00]: Well, she had two sons who were great, but she was their mom, so like, they were annoyed by her, you know, as like we all are sort of annoyed by our own mothers, but for me, like she let me call her she was like, you call me Susie, and so I was like, okay, great. 05:39.181 --> 05:40.202 [SPEAKER_00]: So you're my best friend. 05:41.070 --> 05:50.420 [SPEAKER_01]: I'm just picturing she loves to pour a white wine spritzer, and swive long billowy garments in the kitchen. 05:50.440 --> 05:51.341 [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, Brendan. 05:51.361 --> 05:51.902 [SPEAKER_00]: He jays. 05:51.942 --> 05:55.246 [SPEAKER_00]: I would sleep over there and she'd always be in like a big pajama. 05:55.994 --> 05:57.735 [SPEAKER_01]: God, I love a mom and a pajama. 05:58.495 --> 06:02.398 [SPEAKER_01]: There's something so special about a young gay boy's relationship to his friends and mothers. 06:02.758 --> 06:09.061 [SPEAKER_01]: I could name off the top of my head, the gorgeous first names of so many of my friends and moms. 06:09.541 --> 06:14.084 [SPEAKER_01]: I do think though that it would not be a gay ass podcast. 06:14.144 --> 06:22.889 [SPEAKER_01]: If I didn't dive into the Catholicism of it all, did you, would you say that you survived unscathed from the Catholic school or did the idea of being told 06:28.225 --> 06:32.769 [SPEAKER_00]: Um, I definitely had to unpack that for sure. 06:33.189 --> 06:40.075 [SPEAKER_00]: I think that I had this idea that my suffering was somehow related to some inherent flaw, you know, that we're all born with. 06:40.355 --> 06:51.223 [SPEAKER_00]: And, you know, then I had to learn Buddhism and just learn that life in life is suffering and that's kind of it, you know, they're suffering at every hour. 06:51.504 --> 06:52.605 [SPEAKER_00]: The Buddhists do say that. 06:53.832 --> 06:56.554 [SPEAKER_00]: Yes, life is suffering or life has suffering. 06:56.714 --> 06:58.716 [SPEAKER_00]: So don't take it personally. 07:00.017 --> 07:08.223 [SPEAKER_01]: Well, the listeners are at this point probably annoyed to hear about my taunts of surgery, but since this is the day, you just got to call right before this. 07:10.665 --> 07:17.610 [SPEAKER_00]: My god, for the listeners at home, we got in the Zoom and Eric answer to call and was like, this is my, this is the hospital. 07:18.962 --> 07:24.865 [SPEAKER_01]: And it's so embarrassing as to why they were calling me because, well, two things happen. 07:25.165 --> 07:31.528 [SPEAKER_01]: I actually haven't talked about this publicly, but I feel like now it's the time Brennan's skinnel. 07:32.068 --> 07:37.311 [SPEAKER_01]: So not only have I got swept throat enough time to get my tonsile surgery. 07:37.851 --> 07:42.353 [SPEAKER_01]: I've, I got a three months in a row earlier this year with a nightmare, but on top of that earlier. 07:42.373 --> 07:45.615 [SPEAKER_01]: The road, strap throat, Brendan. 07:48.976 --> 07:51.757 [SPEAKER_01]: I wish I could tell you, I was doing the most despicable things. 07:52.337 --> 08:10.761 [SPEAKER_01]: If I kiss a single man from more than 20 seconds, this statistical probability of meeting step-throat skyrockets, and I'm not the, luckily, I'm not the only gay guy to have experiences, a friend of mine, says the same thing. 08:10.841 --> 08:15.422 [SPEAKER_01]: And sure if you do more, you might also get, but I literally, the last time I got a step-throat, I made out with a friend. 08:17.900 --> 08:22.102 [SPEAKER_00]: I like that you said like when I kiss a single man and I'm like what if you kiss a man in a relationship?
