13

14
I am.
15
We love having you.
16
We do.
17
We have a very sensitive topic today, Gary.
18
Very sensitive topic.
19
Very sensitive.
20
That's a good way to put it.
21
Keyboard warriors why are people online so angry yeah good question why is everyone
22
so angry yeah you watching why are you angry why no
23
we this is something i feel like is very relevant in
24
our lives in particular just look at our comments yeah just
25
look at these comments just as soon as you look at these
26
but you know what i will say our youtube fans are
27
so good to us they're so sweet they're
28
so kind like they love to see us week after week and then instagram you would think we're the worst people
29
on the history of the earth yeah oh yeah oh i
30
don't even check facebook i don't even know i don't even know what's going on there
31
because facebook's like all the old moms
32
that are like upset all of karen yeah the karens male
33
karens though what are they is there a male karen equivalent is there a name for them i don't think
34
so i feel like that we should name one i've seen people just call them kyle
35
or something i've just seen people call male karens male karen yeah yeah
36
why why are people so angry and let's talk about why are people
37
so mean online in particular yeah they're mean because there's no repercussion from it i mean you can talk online and
38
what's gonna happen you talk in real life i mean you can get the beat out of you
39
so it's like true yeah do you think these people are also this mean in person no i i wonder
40
but i don't think so or maybe they're not mean
41
but like they're just not happy with their lives that's what it is
42
that has to be it has to be it yeah like what
43
and i'm asking the audience this why watching us and us having opinions infuriates people so much.
44
Like, why?
45
You want me to be honest about it?
46
Please, yeah.
47
I think it's honestly because of your guys' look.
48
You guys immediately are blondes with big tits and you don't get taken seriously.
49
It's like, oh, two blondes with big tits.
50
If you guys were brunette, I feel like it'd be completely different.
51
Really?
52
Yeah.
53
Should we run this test?
54
Should we dye her hair?
55
I swear.
56
We're wigs.
57
Let's wear wigs for next podcast.
58
Blondes just get looked at differently.
59
Blondes big boobs are instantly like oh these porn star girls and it's fucked up, but I mean that's just I mean, it's how it is and it's it sucks.
60
I mean you don't you don't get taken seriously, which I mean that's not everyone But I mean,
61
I just feel like that's how it is guys girls like hate on blondes Especially big boobs.
62
Oh true.
63
And it's just the thing But what if you're what if you're a brunette with big boobs like you get taken seriously?
64
Is it really a hair color thing?
65
I really think it is because blondes are immediately big boobs are fake.
66
Everything's fake about you guys.
67
Yeah, everything's fake, yeah.
68
But if you're brunette, you're not fake.
69
Oh, your lips are so big.
70
They're so – it's like they're fucking fake.
71
Yeah.
72
They're just as fake.
73
We went to the same doctor.
74
It's just so crazy how hair color can do that.
75
Yeah, that is true.
76
And I definitely think that is a thing.
77
I think that if I had to guess – because I'm not a keyboard warrior.
78
Like if anything, if I go online and somebody posts something,
79
I try to be as encouraging and positive and commenting to get your engagement up. And why,
80
like what has to happen in your life in order for you to feel confident in leaving
81
so much hate on somebody's like job?
82
Like this is our job technically.
83
Like why are people so mad?
84
I wonder if people think we're not going to pay attention.
85
But clearly we clearly we do Yeah, we bark back all the time I love it
86
We do Do you think a lot of times two people do that because they know it's going to get your attention?
87
Probably Because, you know, beautiful women get hit on all the time Like, you know, you're so hot and it's almost like Maybe I need to be a dick
88
And then you'll like respond to me And that will get, I mean, it's fucking weird tactic Because it's like It's true, you could hear 50 most amazing comments and then
89
that one the one asshole comment yeah and sometimes they stick
90
because it's like you know your human nature like yeah you're you're gonna remember certain things
91
but i'm gonna give you guys some free game right now
92
okay this is how social media works for those of you
93
that don't understand linny leaves leaves me a comment on my page and says you look stupid today right she would never.
94
But Lenny leaves that as a comment.
95
Instagram does not know.
96
whether linney said a positive thing to me
97
or a negative thing to me all they see is somebody engaged
98
so they think okay this person engaged on this video
99
so what we're gonna do as instagram is we're gonna show this video to more people
100
because clearly this person liked it enough to comment on it
101
so what you guys don't understand is
102
if you really want to kill the show like some of
103
you act like you want it killed you have to stop engaging
104
because if nobody comments and there's plenty of podcasts out there
105
that get zero engagement yeah they're not doing great but even
106
if you if there's a hundred hate messages
107
and two positive ones all instagram sees is 102 messages
108
and that's what people don't understand like i think haters think
109
they're doing such a negative thing with like commenting some of them get hidden though by instagram yeah
110
and then i'm why did this one get hidden there's nothing
111
wrong with it yeah it like looks for like weird yeah keywords or something
112
but like it's not finding the right one yeah yeah exactly
113
yeah that's why people make videos i feel like where they're
114
so crazy and they want to get people to react like you know essentially rage bait videos
115
and stuff because normal videos just are like okay boring you know
116
so you do and it's like people hate on you
117
but it's still growing engagement it
118
but we don't like there's some things we talk about it's not even rage bait and we're just
119
having a conversation
120
and it still pisses people off i mean you can do anything it's going to just piss people off and
121
and no matter how you say it you could say it
122
politely you could say it negatively positively it's still gonna upset like the wrong person like
123
and i say this all the time like you could be the juiciest peach in the world
124
and there's some asshole out there that doesn't peaches yeah exactly yeah right like yeah guys don't be mean to us
125
what what makes somebody let's dive into this what makes somebody keep checking back on somebody they
126
can't stand like i will notice there are like certain guys like on our on the coffee
127
and cleavage for example don't even follow us don't follow you don't follow me don't follow the coffee
128
and cleavage page but every time a video comes up they leave a hateful message
129
so why like you're not even following
130
so you have to make a conscious effort to type in coffee
131
and cleavage and see what the latest video is and leave comment like that's a disease yeah for sure
132
it's weird too
133
because you guys are very nice girls like you're not bitchy you're not stuck up it's like is
134
that the problem because if we were bitchy then you know i feel like
135
if you were it'd way more like okay you guys are kind of you know
136
so it's like more understandable but you're like both very you come off both very nice and sweet
137
so it's like i don't understand someone's like wow you guys
138
are idiots it's like okay we're just doing a podcast all nice but thanks man okay
139
it's funny what people don't understand about social media
140
and like i really wish the keyboard warriors understood like your comments whether they're good
141
or bad we like them i love when You're like, thanks for driving our engagement.
142
Yeah, and like people don't understand like what that means.
143
They're like, what's engagement?
144
I'm leaving hate.
145
I'm like, it doesn't matter.
146
You leave hate or not hate.
147
It's just a messed up thing to do too, because it's like, what's the point?
148
You just want to make people feel like shit.
149
You know, like they want to get to you guys.
150
Like you've done nothing.
151
I just don't understand it.
152
Like people that get off on like being like, fuck yeah, I got to her.
153
I pissed her off.
154
It's like, cool.
155
Like, great job.
156
You know what I mean?
157
Yeah.
158
Do you feel better? and I feel like that's why I give you guys
159
so much credit for not I mean some stuff gets you
160
but when you just brush things off because that's the biggest thing
161
when someone's talking shit about you a lot of people can't handle
162
that you know where it's like oh hey cool people just saying stuff about us
163
so I feel like that's what you know a lot of
164
models have to take it's just criticism be like oh cool thanks for saying I look like shit
165
or we're stupid it's like cool man thanks you know I mean I wouldn't be able to handle
166
that so I give you guys credit what the recent one
167
that got to me i'm giving people ideas now recent one
168
that got to me was like somebody commented like oh someone's getting chubby
169
and i'm like and i'm so like down in the dumps about it
170
because i have gained weight from you know we talked about
171
this i've gained weight from from health issues health concerns and
172
when somebody calls you out on it i'm like that is like so upsetting
173
because it's like i'm already insecure about this like you a hater will never make me feel insecure about something
174
that i don't believe but
175
if i believe something then i'm like oh shit they might
176
even talk about me there's some of those episodes where i'm like
177
sitting
178
and like damn i look like i have pledge going on
179
there they might even talk about me girl definitely not no
180
and i'm like yeah i'm like what's like i mean saying
181
that about like you know being like oh it looks like
182
you guys have gained some weight i mean what woman is
183
it gonna be like oh thanks they're like you're looking a lot older
184
or something that'd be like oh we get
185
that all the time they'd be like saying to a guy like
186
if i was on podcast someone's like oh that hairlines receding pretty bad i'd be like
187
oh fuck thanks but like we can't help that we're aging guys like
188
but i think they tried people specifically talk about aging as like a as a keyboard warrior thing
189
because they know we're trying to prevent it yeah as much as possible
190
so they think it's like a jab when they comment on our age
191
or aging because we're we're fighting so hard to prevent it
192
but it's like guys like we understand like we're we're getting older yeah we're gonna keep getting older
193
and we're not trying to look younger we're just trying to look as good as we can for the age
194
that we're at like i'm not trying to look 25 hell no
195
if i pulled up a photo of me 25 i wouldn't
196
you couldn't pay me a million dollars to look the way
197
i looked at 25 i was fat my teeth were messed
198
up like i was actually fat like it just no my
199
boobs were like lopsided like i had love handles no i
200
don't want to be 25 Isn't it crazy to see like some of the 25 year olds now though?
201
Now?
202
They don't look 25.
203
No. They look like they're our age.
204
Yeah. Or older.
205
Yeah.
206
I see these girls that are like in grade school and like they're like all into skincare.
207
Yeah.
208
Yeah.
209
Do you know what we did for skincare when we were younger?
210
Like it was like those like Neutrogena pads that were like.
211
Yeah.
212
Noxzema. And like.
213
Seabreeze.
214
And that's it.
215
And they have like 10 step routines.
216
I'm like these girls are growing up so quick.
217
Yeah.
218
And I think it's because of the internet and probably has to do a lot with keyboard warriors.
219
Like these young girls, this young generation gets attacked for everything.
220
Like we didn't have that when we were.
221
No, we didn't.
222
Back in our day.
223
Isn't that kind of a big flex for you guys where you're like, I like how I look now being in my 30s compared.
224
I wouldn't want to go back and be like in my 20s.
225
I think that's a huge accomplishment for sure.
226
I mean, because everyone wants to stay young, but even seeing yourself in 20s, you're like, I wouldn't want to look like that.
227
I like how I look now i mean that's really cool
228
i think did you ever have like girls in high school
229
that were mean to you yeah yeah like i see like the girls
230
that were mean to me in high school
231
and i'm like hell yeah you look like right like i get like a little like petty enjoyment out of
232
that because i'm like yeah you don't you don't gotta do
233
that but then sometimes like i will love to go on on like some of our haters like pages
234
and see what they look like i'm like makes sense oh
235
yeah yeah yeah i I actually have a really good video about haters coming out.
236
I'm not going to ruin it, but you guys will die of laughing.
237
I can't wait for this.
238
Oh, you're going to die.
239
I'll tell you.
240
I'm not going to say it on camera because I don't want you guys to know, but that's a good idea.
241
Yeah.
242
We should do when we pull them up, you know?
243
We should.
244
I know.
245
Is it real?
246
Yeah.
247
Like Jimmy Kimmel, I think, does that, right?
248
Like the celebrities read like the mean tweets or whatever.
249
Oh, yeah.
250
That's funny.
251
We should do that.
252
Yeah.
253
Oh, there's so many.
254
We could be here all day.
255
They like always laugh.
256
I think it's the best when you can laugh about someone talking shit about you.
257
I mean
258
that is such a big like I mean essentially like flex to people where it's not getting to you
259
because it's hard You know it's hard to not let people be like, you know, everyone wants everyone to love them But you know people don't you're like, oh what the fuck like yeah,
260
so that's a huge thing Well, I think you also have to take you It's a responsibility being online
261
because I think part of the gig is being able to Take criticism.
262
Yeah, it's part of the job unfortunately like you have to
263
have a you know a strong enough backbone in you to
264
say this is a career i chose i'm gonna be torn apart online
265
and i hate that you know because
266
because a lot of people aren't strong i mean how many deaths have you heard of of people
267
that were cyber bullied
268
and you know that they they can't handle it do you think that's why
269
so many women in this industry are so insecure
270
because you are essentially you know it's like you're trying to look as good as you can
271
and no matter what someone's always gonna be like oh I don't like
272
that or like oh you look bigger and it's like
273
or you lose weight
274
and it's like wow you're skinny as fuck now it's like
275
you almost have to get to the point where you're like okay like I'm happy with how I look
276
but I mean it's still hard it's hard
277
but I think as you age you learn that every single person
278
that you encounter has a story as complex as yours right like every hater has a family life
279
and a work life and a you know personal life as much as we do
280
so you know whatever's bothering them that turns them into keyboard warriors you know you
281
and i don't have whatever's bugging them because you have to have something
282
so deeply implanted in your brain yeah to think it's online to to go online
283
and think it's okay to yeah like this to people do you think people are actually just like angrier now
284
or is it now that you can just like everything's online both
285
I love when the women though talk shit on us Oh hell yeah
286
And you look at their profile pic
287
and you're like I think it's just pathetic as fuck
288
When I see women talking shit about other women I'm like come on Guys talk shit about other guys
289
but women Especially for us we're such girls girls We're such girls girls Yeah I know
290
Like my whole life MO is to strive to like help women and like with my cosmetics brand, like help women feel beautiful.
291
You know, I made these products like good price.
292
So like people aren't spending, you know, an arm and a leg.
293
Like I try to do so much for women to feel included, inclusive.
294
And I'm like, you're talking shit?
295
Like, I'm on your side, babe.
296
Yeah.
297
And then I think that just comes from like jealousy in a way.
298
Yeah.
299
Yeah.
300
I mean, there's it can't not be jealousy like because why else are you talking like that?
301
It has to be jealousy.
302
Yeah.
303
Yeah, for sure.
304
Have you ever met a hater like in real life?
305
Like somebody that like talked crap online and then you actually met them in person.
306
No, I haven't.
307
But I know that that is a thing.
308
And like then they'll be like, you're actually like, you know, really nice.
309
Like you're actually cool.
310
I have had that.
311
I've had a guy like remember when we used to do the Sapphire pool parties.
312
Yeah he actually he came to a sapphire pool party just like seeing like you know
313
that i was hosting or whatever and he came
314
and he's like wow you're actually a lot nicer in person and i'm like
315
i'm nice online like am i not nice and like
316
that like got to my head i'm like what you're a lot nicer in person what the fuck what does
317
that mean like i still think about it But I'm like, is there like a particular video or something he saw?
318
Because I feel like I'm very nice.
319
He probably hasn't seen maybe videos of you talking just photos and assumed you're a stuck up bitch.
320
Maybe.
321
I'm like, what does that mean?
322
I'm like.
323
Because I've gotten that where people go, oh, you know, you're actually really nice.
324
Yeah.
325
I thought you wouldn't be like that. So crazy.
326
Yeah.
327
Yeah.
328
But I'm like, what?
329
I'm like, there has to be a video or something because there's no way.
330
Yeah.
331
You would think I'm this awful person.
332
And then you're like, oh, I'm pleasantly surprised.
333
yeah I don't get it no
334
but I do think to answer your question I do think people have gotten angrier
335
and I think like especially after COVID where
336
people became sheeple for lack of better words
337
and you know they started yeah I love that I love
338
that they they started conforming to you know things
339
that they have to do and these vaccines and all
340
that fun stuff not to get into that
341
but like I think people are just angry yeah they're angry
342
at the system they're angry at the government they're angry at health care they're angry at their jobs like they're
343
so sensitive i feel like people get offended by everything
344
so sensitive that's why it's so good to just be your normal self
345
and not care when you're like offending anyone it's like
346
because whatever you you guys especially do it's like you're always gonna like offend someone
347
or piss someone off so it's like you know it's like what do you do be yourself
348
or kind of be fake
349
because like i don't want to like offend anyone you know we try to be ourselves
350
but apparently ourselves is what pisses people off pisses people off yeah i don't i don't get
351
that i've never been in a position though i don't know
352
if you have or somebody has said something to me it's changed the trajectory of anything
353
that i've done like and i hate that there are people like i've said
354
that i've taken their lives unfortunately because the the hate
355
and the backlash is so big online
356
that you know they they can't handle it yeah that's why i think you guys deserve
357
so much credit you know for being models content creators
358
and then a podcast where it's like all these platforms where people can follow you
359
and see you and essentially kind of talk
360
and make your lives like you know if you don't do something
361
that they like or you're not talking to them enough it's like they can kind of with you
362
and find you anywhere where didn't used to be like
363
that you know
364
and you know for us like especially for us as content
365
creators in the adult world you know how like funny example
366
but like if a person's like changing right
367
and they're in like a semi -public place
368
and they're like you don't you don't want anybody to see you right
369
because like you because you're naked like you don't want to be seen you and i
370
and other content creators we put ourselves out on the internet
371
nude like the people don't want to be seen changing in a changing room
372
but you and i were full on naked on the internet we leave nothing to the imagination
373
and we're so we open
374
that door to such intense criticism like you would think we would get more credit for doing what we're doing
375
because like this is terrifying like out there like there's there's
376
nothing left of me like you've seen everything you need to see
377
so i i wish people gave that more credit but i mean
378
but i mean i think people were just like you're making money with your body
379
so it's like well you can too babe like you know start taking care of yourself you could also
380
but you know but that's a whole separate discussion you know like yeah
381
i don't get these warriors man i know do you think do you think when people leave these comments they're like
382
hell yeah it makes their day i got her yeah i
383
think they're wanting to do it to essentially get to you for sure
384
or is it just like they're just so insecure as people
385
that they don't even realize what they're doing because there's a lot of
386
that like some people are
387
so removed from this like they they don't even realize like
388
what they're doing yeah i think that's what it is they just don't even you know i'm sure
389
when this comes out you'll have a bunch of people explaining why
390
i'm curious like if somebody's watching please like what what do you think the philosophy is
391
because yeah because essentially it's like

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
