Summary

On this week’s episode of Mom’s Car we welcome none other than the Duchess of Duluth, Monica Padman. Dax, Monica, and Best Friend Aaron Weakley talk through the most tempted they’ve been to sample their own wares, a definitely real, meet-cute write-in question that could have been a full-circle big twist, why Monica’s kink is sick men and tasty food, a historic review of pubic hair styles, and whether there’s something unattractive or scary about a partner being totally immersed in a new pursuit.

1:06.0

Music You know what's funny is I always donate my clothes to Salvation Army, but then I buy him. Oh, then I buy someone else's.

1:09.0

And I love the thought that someone's going to like my t-shirt that I don't like anymore. They will. Sustainability. Right. Then I get someone else's. Do you get a credit there? Or something. I'm like, oh, like this. No. One person's trash is another person's treasure. They say that. That's one of the famous thing.

1:28.1

I have a weird experience where it's like, I'll give away a bunch of stuff and it's nice stuff.

1:33.5

Yeah. I've given Jordans to the Goodwill. Sure. And then I have this weird desire that I hope they know that it was expensive or a $350 sweater, it's important to me that they know they got something that's normally $350 for $2. It's not very Buddhist. It's not very Buddhist. And why doesn't matter, but can you relate to that? I do, yeah. You go like, oh, I'm giving those $1,800 purse to Goodwill. I sure hope they know what they got. Yeah. Or it's kind of fun for someone who has no idea and really just likes the way it looks. And lucky them, they got a $28,000 purse. And maybe that's the best case. They don't even know what they have. And then they're walking around with the burqa bags. And people are like, oh my God, I love your bag. Where did you get it? Those are hard to get. That would be cool. Where's our first stop? Well, we just kind of drive around, Monty, and then it'll tell us. Look, it's lunchtime. Oh, it's a good time for this. Prime time. Prime time. Let's see if we get one. We're just going to ride until we get a dingle. Yeah, and sometimes we just kind of post up at Sunset Junction and wait. I've told you a lot about this. This is broken a lot of my assumptions. Oh, yeah. My first assumption was like, oh, food delivery is pretty pricey. This is a cute restaurant I like to go to sometimes. La Pouty? Yeah. What's it? Lou Piette. It's French. And on the inside, you feel like it's Christmas time in Europe. Oh. And the food's delicious? Yeah, it's good. Do they have a French onion soup? I don't think so. Do they have French fries? I don't think they have any of those things. They're French dressing?

3:08.5

Oh my God, no.

3:27.5

What if everyone in there was French kissing? Who have you are invited to French kiss your waiter? Oh. This is kind of fun because I kind of feel like while we're waiting, I can just tell you all the places I like. I already anticipated this. Yeah. Sincerely. But what's counterintuitive is like, okay, yeah, people without a lot of money are using delivery service. I thought it was going to be delivering to a bunch of rich people. Not the case. Secondly, I would think, oh, I'll go hang out or all the restaurants I eat at. Most of the times we get a dingle. It's a weird duck restaurant on Hollywood Boulevard. Wow.

3:41.3

What's the most tempted you've been to eat one of the items?

3:45.1

We picked up Lucifer's Wants.

3:47.2

Yeah, that smells real good.

3:48.4

I can tell you the most unempted I was.

3:51.4

Actually, they were both with joy.

3:53.7

Well, Jackie, too.
