Mm, yeah, more.

Give it to me.

Mm, yeah, more.

Good morning, Sotomites with Zach Bowie Towers.

Areece, you're my first time ever return guest.

Oh my God, that's so exciting.

And I hope I didn't make everyone go deaf with that shriek, but wasn't it passable?

Wasn't that shriek so passable?

Like, that was definitely a woman screaming her tits off. I have to go there because I can't take myself too seriously. Otherwise, you know, I love that about you. You end up like those plastics skanks. Name, names, name, names. No, don't really. I don't even have to. You know what's funny is I don't even have to. I'm like, you know what? I'm the real one. You are? Of the plastics. I love, I love. I'm kidding. I'm kidding. I'm just as fake as everyone else. This is Hollywood. Wait, do you think fakeness is like, um, buried true to L.A.? Like, is L.A. fake to you? You know what? I think L.A. is real about being fake, though. Oh, I appreciate that. Yeah. Just because everyone, I get very irritated because I've lived everywhere. Like, I grew up in D.C., went to college in Miami, um, got a career started for real in New York City. Of course. I lived here for nine years in January.

And, um, so you must like it a little bit.

I love it.

But I think it's very honest about what it is.

So if you come here and you think you're going to make all these wonderful friends who,

I don't know, don't want anything from you, this is a very opportunist place.

It's like kind of all, it's all like not climbers, but people with goals. Yes. And all of our goals kind of overlap a bit. Yes. And so what you need to ask yourself when you move here, and this is a real bit of advice from me to everyone. Yes. Is who are you coming into this? Because if you're moving here to make friends, I think you'll attract that. But why are you moving to L.A.? Do you want to be a star? Because then you're going to attract people that want that same thing that you want. And some of those people don't have the same intentions you have that are so pure. Right. They will step on you to get ahead. And you do come across people like that, but it's about the energy you're giving off. So are you fake, honey? Because all my friends are chill. I was just, wait, what's, what energy are you bringing? Like, I have an idea. Um, I have, I have, like, a friend family in every city that I've ever lived. to like, because I'm a pretty personable person. Like, I like, I like, I like people. Genuinely. Yeah. Yeah. And, um, I like being funny. I like being found funny. Like, that's kind of like being entertaining. Yeah. I like to be of service in an entertainment aspect. I love hearing that.

Oh, thanks.

That's a very pure, kind of pure-hearted angle on what we do.

Yeah, no, thank you.

Like, when I get ready for something and I'm looking at every last detail from like my bracelet to what my hair is going to look like. It's because I want to be

a joy in the room, like a joy to look at, a joy to experience. I want to please all of the senses.

You want to enhance. I said except for touch. Do not fucking touch me. Do not fucking touch me.

And that's why Reese brings a cattle prod to every event she hosts, just zapping people.
