the group chat. I think the group chat is where memes are farmed and created. You know, I wake up in the morning at 6 a.m. I've got memes loaded into several of my group chats. And I know it's going to be a great day. So I disagree with her on that. But we'll hear why she, you know, wants to change that.

We also talk about vanish mode, which is a phrase that I've coined on this podcast right now and maybe will become the name of my production company. We talk about executive dysfunction, something I wasn't aware of before. It's not erectile dysfunction, but it does function as a way to erectile dysfunction. We talk about West Village Girlies. I'm pro-West Village Girlie.

I don't know if you guys are. We talk about group chat dynamics, our boy Zach Schiffman, herniated discs, and cooking. So stay tuned. Listen to the whole episode. It's a good time. Here we go. I'm putting on my favorite radio voice. Does it sound like... I think it sounds like a radio voice. I have a very, very funny and apparently a Luddite of a guest. She's a stand-up comedian.

She's the host of the popular internet show, Boy Room, which is television that is on the internet, kind of like my shows. And she's one of the funniest people I've ever met. And her take was that there should be no more group chats, which I find to be...

130.823 - 153.41 Rachel Coster

offensive so what's your take okay i think that there should be no more group chat 100 disagree okay because no i think what happened is that you and i are different because young people respectfully we have a different thing going on what's that they are making group chats for legit anything and i'm finding it challenging because something will start as like oh we're going to the fair but then like six months later i'm getting 125 texts a day

155.011 - 155.931 Kareem Rahma

in the fair group chat.

155.991 - 168.017 Rachel Coster

Yeah, that are saying like, oh, Trump got shot, whatever. I don't want to see that in my group chats that I've never signed up for. You can't consent to being in a group chat. No one ever asks like, oh, do you want to be in here for the rest of your life?

168.117 - 171.039 Kareem Rahma

It's true. It's like a nightmare. OK, I'm with you on this one.
