Hey guys welcome back to Pretty Basic. This is Remmi Cruz and unfortunately today we are not joined by Miss Alicia Marie because she gets the week off, but we do have a very special guest today. I'm currently looking at my boyfriend, Cal.

Hello, how do you feel? I feel great. I feel nervous. I've never done any sort of podcast anything without Alicia. So I don't feel I feel like my heart's beating like I'm honored. You are I'm honored to be your guest. Yeah, I feel like this feels natural. I feel like it'll be okay. We actually really need to tell them about us. Okay, so we met on.

Hinge, which we love Hinge. We had a full segment about hinge on here. I told you about that right? Yeah, oh, it was great. Actually the first time you ever messaged me on Hinge. I was sitting on this couch. No way. Yeah, I was leaving a recording and I was telling our producer. I was like, oh my god, there's this cute guy that I matched with on Hinge and then you messaged me. Wow. Do you want to tell them? Do you remember what our first message was?

Well, I remember that you you liked my profile probably a week before I message you because I know I for real I was looking at your like your profile. I was like, there's no way. There's no way that because you look you looked really good. And I was like, thank you.

I was like, I have no idea what to tell her. I have no idea. I thought you were like one of the best conversations. So in case you don't know what it is, Hinge is a dating app. And it's kind of like they they market it as like the one for relationships, which every single one of my girlfriends that has met their boyfriend off of a dating app has all been hinge.

And I like it because we've talked about it before, but you get to really like know someone through these like prompts and questions and things that you answer. So you kind of can gauge if you will kind of hit it off a little bit more. So I think my profile I talked about you have to like dogs. You have to like chance the rapper and then something pineapple on pizza. Yeah.

So like my three favorite like tacos on the beach. Yes, yes, it's like what's your go to date, which I've never done this, but one time a girlfriend told me that her go to date is tacos on the beach. And I was like, that sounds cool. I've never done it. But I just think it makes you sound.

I still don't think we've had tacos on the beach. I don't like tacos to be fully on it. But I just think it sounds cool. So I wrote all those things down. And then I remember I found your profile and I was like, he's cute. So I liked it. Oh, and it said six four. So I was like, he's cute.

So I liked it. And then I remember you messaged me first and you were like tacos on the beach pineapple pizza, chance rapper and dog sounds like a perfect girl or something else like a perfect combo. Yeah, which we do like the tacos, all those things.

I usually go for like a witty like funny line. But I was like, I was just so nervous to message you. I was like, I'm just going to just go for related ability. I thought it was good. You did a good job. So now we've been dating for over seven months.

Good, good number. So far it's been pretty good. Pretty good. Yeah. I'm having a great time. Awesome. Well, should we say anything else about us? I don't really know.

Uh, anything else? We're an interracial couple.

For real though, if we have babies, they're going to be really cute. They're going to be happy Asian half-life babies are so cute. I want like rolls on rolls on rolls.

Anyway, so today we are also joined by the wonderful TK also knows TK's juicy polls. She's got a mic and she's actually to be on this cal and I have nothing

for fun. So she's come with questions and she's just going to like spit fire. We're going to talk back and forth about I'm guessing what it's like to date an influencer. I feel like that's a big question that you I'm actually curious to know how you feel. This is a little bit more low stakes to we did a thing called truth or drink like three months ago, which basically it's by cut media on YouTube.

And you sit at this table in front of a whole camera crew and you have to answer these extremely invasive questions. And if you don't want to answer, you take a shot. Both of us were four shots in in the first like 30 seconds.

We were so drunk by the end. And I don't know what we said still to this day. I don't remember either. So we're still waiting to get that cut back. Oh, it's going to be bad. So I think this is a little bit less low.

Low stakes a little as high stakes. I'm not too worried. I have a question actually about the cut because I know they're extremely juicy over there. Did you have to for worn cow like, Hey, they may ask you about this, this and this. Don't answer. Make sure you drink during these questions. No, but you know, I got Matt. We gone to a fight after we did. But you did show me their videos like a long time ago. This is like one of our first night, our first date ever. We watched a cut to their drink videos because to me, I was like, this is like what a straight guy loves.

Like beer pong and like those kinds of like drinking videos. So I was like, great segue into the YouTube world. Thank you. It was like, I just thought that you would enjoy it. I felt like maybe we could just like talk about it because I do love watching them. So then when the opportunity came around, we're like, oh my god, this is cute. Like this is our first day that we did. It was fun. I don't think I forewarned you about anything in particular. But I remember by the end we had both taken. I think we took like nine shots. You took a little more than I did. But how was it?

I think you took a like, seven or six or so. Okay, well, I took a lot and I don't do shots normally. But I just remember at the end, Cal just started to be funny because he thought it was like a funny thing. And the last question was, is Remi different in real life than she is on YouTube or like the podcast or whatever. And I truly don't think I am different. I think I'm pretty much the same in real life. And Cal. I would agree with that. Thank you so much. Yeah. Yeah, really.

I just remember I was seven shots and I was like, he started just being funny. So what did he say? He was like, I think I just took a shot. No, yes, he said, so you take a shot if you don't want to answer, which obviously incinuates the truth. And so they're like, is Remi different? And he just looks at the camera. Smart ass takes a shot. And they're like, perfect cut. Let's end. And I was like, oh my god. And when I was like, do you really think I'm different? He was like, no, I was just, I was being funny. I was like, Cal. This is not the time to be funny.

My reputation is at state. 10 plus million people are going to watch. So I didn't for a while. I wish I had known that question beforehand, but you know, we're okay now. Yeah, we got through that fight. It'll be fine. It was a good fight. Yeah.
