welcome to the shit show things are going to get weird it's your fave villain and you're listening to barely famous happy birthday to you happy birthday to you
Happy birthday, dear Eliante. Happy birthday to you. How does it feel to be 16? Kind of crazy. Your uncle. Did I just get called an unk already?
The funkle, if you will. The gunkle, the gay uncle. I have to tell you that unrelated to your birthday, my mom's older brother, super gay, right? Really? Best fucking gifts ever. When I was a kid, he got me the coolest pink fuzzy blanket as a gift. I got Britney Spears' first perfume, Curious. Like I'm talking the best gifts came from my gunkle. My gunkles because they were married. Just saying.
That's cool.
Yeah. So does it actually feel different than being 15 though? Or do you think once you're able to drive without anyone in the car that then it will feel different?
I don't know. I think that over time it's that like build up. And then when the day comes, it's going to be like, wow, like. What next? Like. I'm going to be driving.
I cannot be physically present in the car.
She's scared of me driving.
I'm not getting in the car with you until you're like 20. No, because if y'all both go to the private school, he's going to have to drive you. Everybody's getting in the car with Eliante.
Y'all are going to drive me crazy to the point where I'm going to get overstimulated and I'm going to pull over on the highway. Seriously. Who's going to get you overstimulated?
all of them especially lux and creed i won't let lux and creed drive with you i think that would be too much of a distraction one at a time no not even unless it's an emergency i would prefer to keep the distractions at a minimum and i think the only sibling that i would let you drive with right now would be lincoln um for you lincoln how does it feel to have a 16 year old brother i feel young because he's so old you know right since he's an unk you're basically the nephew
Mm hmm.
Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, has he sort of set the tone for what the expectations are of you when you turn 16? No.
How does Elliott feel about turning 16?
It's so funny because y'all are polar opposites. Yeah. And it's just so funny. Like, I feel like you're equally responsible, but your personalities are so frickin different that like. Yeah. But like, I trust you equally.
I mean, he's like, he's sitting here with someone like, he wants to like, look so great. Well, I'm not a freaking girl. I was saying like this.
And I'm just like, that's what you're wearing for the podcast. And Lincoln's like, yeah. What does it feel like when you think about the difference? Well, I guess you don't really know the difference. But when you hear stories about me being 16 versus you being 16, like what difference
lincoln i didn't ask you okay there's a year and like one year anniversary until you got pregnant so you had me
This is what you get for having them on. This is what you get.
Anyway, no, we need it. We love comments from the peanut gallery. Even though I say that I don't, like, it's funny. It is.
She says it all the time. We keep her humble.
That's a fact. So when you hear stories about the things that I was doing at your age versus where you're at, how do you feel? What do you think? Or do you not really think about it?
I don't know. It's just, it's in the back of my mind, you know, but, you know, I think, I don't know. I'm like... Proud to be doing better than you, you know? Because, you know, I'm not smoking weed and, you know, going around, you know.
Riding dirty into Kwan's minivan.
Yeah, I'm learning other languages and acting, you know.
Oh.
Much better. Much better.
You know, it's so fascinating for me because I don't... I literally just said this before you got in. Like, I don't know how... that has been possible to raise you. And obviously I'm not by myself. Like your dad raises you over at his house. And like, just thinking about how good of a human you are versus what I was doing. Like I, it almost seems impossible for someone like you to come from someone like us. Cause your dad was doing the same shit I was doing.
