Who are the hosts and guest on this episode?
You know, it's sort of innocently sweet and it's not so hard over the head. Like, can you stand alone in a room? That's why I like the question because I would ask that all wrong.
Right.
That's just the thing.
I would ask that same question. Are you an insecure trifling ass? That is exactly right.
Are you so insecure that you can't handle a strong woman?
Are you uncomfortable with my bigness?
That's right.
I would ask it all wrong. Right. Because I am a boss.
I am a boss.
I'm a boss. Are you okay being the belly? Can you level up? Can you level up?
And then he's running away going, I don't know.
He's aggressive.
How you doing?
I'm doing great. Yeah, feeling good. Another day. Alive. We're getting to that age where, you know.
No, we're not.
I'm just, just blessed to have woken up. You don't think we're at that age? You're older than me.
Well, we are.
We're in our 60s, my friend.
I know, but I'm hoping I got a good 20 more left. That's what I'm shooting for, at least.
But, you know, we're at the age now where, you know, it's not so tragic.
I know. Well, did you get enough rest last night, old lady?
I did. I did. I, you know, the girls came over for dinner and I was so tired that I left them at the table, which is unusual because I love hanging out with my girls, but I was that sleepy. I was like, you know what? Mom's going to bed. You can sit here and talk to your dad. But yeah, I got to bed early and had plenty of sleep. How's your Airbnb feeling?
Oh my gosh.
Still happy with your situation?
I'm so happy that I did not go to dinner last night. I left here.
Just to stay in your Airbnb house?
Just to be able to chill in my Airbnb in West Hollywood and... Guess who visited me this morning to do their laundry? Who? Leslie. My daughter's in town here and she came over to bring her laundry to do.
Why does she have laundry? How long has she been here?
Because she works out every day.
Oh, okay.
So she had a whole bag full of gym clothes and underwear and stuff and just put it in. And I was like, yeah, come on over. And then we had breakfast and... And then she went to meetings.
Yeah.
And I think she's going to come stay with me tonight.
I'm learning a lot about the Airbnb life since we don't do that.
Since you don't get to do it.
But the girls do. Malia and Sasha, whenever they're traveling.
And so are our kids. Avery and Leslie and Emily and Elena, they have no qualms about it. Let's go. Let's find a place.
It's really a different intergenerational use. I mean, young people, they like being in a home. Well, a lot of times when they're traveling, they're sharing with their friends. They're dividing up a house and, you know, so.
And I find I've gotten to like it now. So, you know, I was a strictly hotel guy. Yeah, yeah. Maid service every day. I wanted to be able to go down to the bar and not have to drive anywhere. I wanted all that stuff. But then the amenities of having your own place that's like a house and you can sort of live the way you normally live is much more appealing.
Well, it sounds like it'd be a good girls trip, a friend gathering session or, you know, a little... But anyway, well, I'm glad you are comfortable in your Airbnb, mister. So you'll never stay with me ever again, I guess.
No, I would not do that.
Have we been displaced?
You have not been displaced.
Oh, good.
You have not been displaced. It's, you know, but. You might want to come visit me every now and then now when I'm in town.
Would I mess up your mojo if I showed up with my motorcade in your house driving up the driveway?
It wouldn't mess up my mojo. It might mess up the owner's mojo.
It might not mess up.
What personal dating experiences do the hosts share?
Well, maybe.
Maybe I'll stop by and see all your mini pools in your house.
Yes. Yes.
Well, what are we talking about today?
So we're talking about dating today.
I love talking about dating because I haven't done it in decades.
And, you know, when we were preparing for this, I was asked the question, when we were younger, did we talk about dating? And I have to say, I don't remember talking about dating much at all when we were younger. Right.
