Hey Better Babes, welcome back to Getting Better.

Guess what? It's my birthday! I'm 39. It's birthday week, and as a special present to me, actually to you, it's a present for all of us to celebrate my birth. I just announced all of my 2026 tour dates. The hot and heel tour is coming to a city near you. Go to jonathan vanness.com slash tour. Find where I am near you. I can't wait to see you.

It's such a good show. But also to continue celebrating my birthday, we have one of my favorite people, one of my best friends. She is a Broadway star. She's a TikTok star. She's an author. She's an incredible woman who I am so proud to call my friend. and we are learning how to be our best selves today,

how to embrace ourselves fully with none other than Dylan Mulvaney.

Dylan, welcome to getting better.

Thank you so much, Jonathan.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but this is our first time being on our podcast together, right?

Never before.

Never before. I thought you're about to be like, girl, we've done this four times.

No, and you have multiple. You've done a lot of different speaking things.

With a lot of things. We've done so many things together, though. We did drowsy chaperone.

Yes. New Year's 2024. Yes. So many other things.

I was actually going to say the most simple happy time in my life was when I came to visit you in Austin, Texas at the commune before Beergate.

Yes, it was right before Beer Gate.

Life was good.

I will tell you guys that the commune is not what we called it.

We had a different nickname for what we called My old house in Texas, but we won't be sharing

that on the podcast.

It was only for Mia Loak and Dylan. It was our, it was our current, this political climate. But that was our place and that was fun. It was special. We had special times there. She's gone, but she used to be mine. What, it was beautiful. Thank you so much. Was that the trip when I dropped you off at the airport and then when I was halfway home?

Or no, when we got you out to the airport, you're like, oh my God, my Chanel bag is at your house. And so we hauled us back to the house, got your Chanel bag and got it back to you did not miss the plane. Yes. And by you, you mean Mark. Mark really hustled. Yeah, Yeah, yes. I was in the car. You supported. But he drove. Always.

Yes.

I don't drive.
