What's the wrong at all?

Everyone, welcome to Out and About.

We are back with Grayson Ho-Zell, the internet extraordinaire, the social media extraordinaire, the soon-to-be former mechanical engineer? Environmental. Environmental engineer. He's going to quit that job because he's getting too goddamn famous. Grayson, how are we doing? Oh, my God. I'm so happy to be back. Thank you so much for having me. Despite how the first one went, I was nervous and scared and terrified. Oh, yeah. All right. Cool. I'm used to. I'm used to having stuff shoved into my face. Really? And those are just women's titties usually. Yeah, typically. Sure. Sure. Absolutely. Yeah. I didn't know you were nervous last time you're here. It was like, when I was listening to you're nervous now. You go, well, see that, I always have the natural studder, but like listening to it back, you could hear it in my voice. Like I was like, I was shake. My voice was shake. Oh, well, that's a mistake. You listen back. I don't listen. There was a time when we would do this show and we, I would like watch clips before we put them up. I don't watch anything that I do. I don't watch anything that I do. I just click and of my career. I don't watch anything I do.

I just click and put it up. I don't think there's anything wrong with that. I would say, as

somebody who posts on social media, the less I care about what I'm posting, the better it does.

Like if I wing it and then never look at it, chances are that's what's more likely going to go viral. Like, for example,

I posted something yesterday. I had two beers on an empty stomach. For some reason, blackout drunk, I guess. That's fine. That's what we're doing today. We're drinking right now. I didn't know you were a Philly scumbag, by the way. Oh, yeah. Grayson likes to drink beer. I inherited the skumbag trade when I was there for two years because of my lovely but degenerate friends.

We all love to have a good time and really hang out and party. And that's where, I mean, my alcoholic days was where I kind of got to like flex that a little bit because I moved to Philly and everybody there is just an undiagnosed alcoholic. So I fit right in. I thought it Sure. That's you. Yeah. You never know. Yeah. Philadelphia is definitely a drinking town. We have a couple people here. Kate, who I used to do the show with, who is, um, a drinker, which also a mother of two. She's a drinker. We have, who else is from Philly here? John Kelly is from Philly.

Nate,

Macs,

who else is from Philly?

Do we know?

I feel like we have a big Philly contingent, but I just can't, I don't know the name. It's all. You somebody in-house whose nickname is Booz? Yeah. Oh, he's the Philly guy. Yeah, obviously he's got to be the Philly guy. Yeah, Booz is the Philly guy.

He's actually supposed to pick up a prescription for me today.

I don't know if he did it.

But yeah, no, I'm glad... Obviously, he's got to be the Philly guy. Yeah, Booz is the Philly guy. He's actually supposed to pick up a prescription for me today.

I don't know if you did it. But yeah, no, I'm glad you're back because we said we were going to get you back when you moved to New York. You finally made the jump. You were in Philly. Move to New York because... A couple reasons. So, yes, I am trying to make the leap to full-time social media eventually

when the money is a bit more consistent it makes more sense as far as like my career trajectory

goes but um also my supervisor lives for my engineering job works out of the manhattan office so

it made career sense that way, too.
