I just feel like you're funny.

Yeah. You bring people out of their comfort zone. And then we have mutual friends, kind of. Like the James. Okay, Chris James Collet? No. Oh, I love him too. James Baldwin. Oh, that fucking guy. We're on a down relationship right now. Oh. No, it's just, I work out with him so much that like it's just bound to happen, you know?

He sees your stories and he's like, why are you eating that? Why are you drinking eight shots of tequila, Alexis? No, I actually drank four expresso martinis in Vegas recently. And I was like, dude, Alexis, you've been doing this for years. Like, that is not a good choice. Like, you could have stopped at one, but I went all the way to four and then had a panic attack all night. You know what I mean? Yeah, Alco does that. And then you're drinking coffee. I know. I know.
