Deb just spilled tequila.

Oh my gosh. Hey everyone. Welcome to the official Seenagers. Hi sceenagers. How are you? I'm Charlie ponger. You are so what a thing we've had going on here today before we got on there. Like holy stronjoes.

The thing that when you spill something all you're worried about is my phone my phone. I know right? Your house your clothes,

did you? Like So Debbie had tequila on my little childhood? What did you What do you want to call this thing? Wow. You know, it's like a play school thing that I put down as a table to absorb some sounds right?

Like round sound squares. Yeah, whatever they are. You've ever been in a recording studio? They have like, you know, spongy squares of like gray black. Yeah. foam on the wall RSR, right? So Charlie's got them over there. They're stacked and they're not on a wall. They just sit around like the left. Something's gonna put up some day. And all of a sudden, I want to go. I didn't want to overreact. I go. What's that? Like, what is that? And it's purple and lime green. And there's yellow underneath interlocking play school school foam things that kids bounce around on? Right? So he puts it on the table. But now there's like not enough table? And that's where I put my tequila.

Oh, is that what happened? on your lap? Oh my gosh, right. So wet. You are not gonna fall off the chair though. No, no. Look

out of the house. People like, Oh, she should have checked. Yeah, I think you're on like, had a problem.

So I want to go back to an episode we did a while back. And it was called something like the pillows right? And I told a story about remember where you were on the phone and you text me about hey, how's that woman? And I said it's over the why the pillows and you pull up the road? You're most likely lost. Right right now and and so just to refresh everyone's memory quickly. Yes. Um, there was a breakup with myself and this woman over pillows because she freaked out about me moving around moving the pillows around, right? So fast forward. Concerning all of a sudden there was around my birthday. And I get this text is this way after she heard heard the show? About the show? I have no idea like what she's googling man. And anyway,

I tell you, you're goofing on her. And she wants to kill but

she had no idea that I mean, I didn't never use anyone's names or anything like that. You

know, the pillows or the reason you broke up?

Well, this, this is this the text. I didn't tell you this. The text I received was, it wasn't just the pillows. So I thought, Well, she didn't even do a smiley face or anything like that. And so I better better leave that one alone.

Ah, there's a lot of reasons why people break up. They never talk. Oh, ever. They don't. They don't say what the reasons. So

then I get an email, a scathing email, right. So I mean, that's after the text. It was the next day. I guess I really got her goat. It was unintentional.

Why, what? And how did she hear the show? She must have,

you know, it was around my birthday. The only thing I can assume is that she I don't know. She looked me up for my birthday. I don't know. I have no idea is so anyway, I get this massive email. So the only thing I could write back was just said, I wrote back and I said, well, um, I guess you don't get my humor. Right? Oh, yeah. He, and then she responded back again. I was like, she's still not laughing about any of this kind of stuff now. So that was the end of that. So now I wait. I gotta tell you something else.

Okay, more more reasons why people break up with.

So well, this one was really weird. I'm at this party with this at this media place with this guy. You know, his house is overlooking Central Park and I meet this woman, this woman meets me there. And another guy that I knew that was on air and she was on air with him. He was very famous at the time. And he calls me the next day and he's like, bro, you got to do me a favor. You got to go out with this woman. And I'm like, alright, and he goes, Yeah, he goes she she's asking me for your number and I'm giving

you here's her number I fill out with women as a favor to another guy.

Well, in this instance, it was like apparently he was saying this is non stop. I got you know, you got to have her stop talking about

you. Okay, so like hot and happening. This is a happening moment.

Yeah, this is like I'm in my 30s Right. He's a hot and happening. Probably close to 40. So I guess I'm happening. So I, I call her doing him a favor. So she invites me to her place overlooking, like Columbus Park. I mean, it was unbelievable place.

Okay, so

I show up. I show up. And I show up this beautiful marble floor. tells me she's making me dinner. Wow, it was Chinese food. Takeout. Right so so she shows up and she's She opens the door it's all marble she starts walking boom she slips she had I heels on slips falls right in her ass. So now we're sitting eating the Chinese food after the big open after the big open help her up, or the whole thing slowed to the me and takes me into this back room where the little TV is, you know, this little nuk and yes, started making hours right Nikki? Sorry. So I'm making out with her and I put my hand on her head.

And then what? And then

I felt something really effing weird. And I went, Ooh, what's that? She's, it was a, I don't know, there was like all these attachments to the top of her head with this thing. This hair coming out. What does that call the thing like, wave? A wave? And that's what she said it was a wave. It totally freaked me

out. Okay, that's the problem. When you put your hands on somebody's body hair had I had Yeah, I was being you know, was trying to enhance themselves. I had no idea. It's your mom's future months. Yeah,

I detect as a mage. No technical, totally detectable.

Got one. Wait,

so, so I gotta go. Like, I gotta figure out how to get out of there.

You gotta go like that moment. You got Oh, yeah,

I'm like up and I'm gone. Right. That's your hair. And you said I go. What's that?

What's that? How does she know? The relationship?

Yeah, I was like, freaked out. So she was very wealthier. Oh, I don't know if she's, and said, Well, you want to take my Mercedes home? I'm like, No, it's okay. You want $500? No, no, that's okay. Thanks. And we can always use my house in the Hamptons. And I'm like, No, I, I'm going back to my little apartment. And you know, so I go back. And now and at the time I was working at the radio station, right? And my friend John calls and he goes, go get page six. I go, I go, All right, go get the post. Go get page six. So I get it.

lot. Or if she was older than she was older than me. Everybody's

hiding something. And the big reveal comes sometimes the unexpected. And it's like shocking. Yeah. You know, most women who are have things going on and they're hiding things are smart enough if they're savvy to figure out how to hide the things before the things that are hidden, get discovered. Oh, is that right? You have no idea. But that's now. Right. Does that mean back in the day? They were undergarments and plants and hotels. Yeah.

Do you remember the Linus? Do you remember the Lena stockings? No she when Angelina Nikolina and Catalina stockings. No I'm not kidding you.

Would you call yourself a granola jockey have

a good Oh yeah. Well my grandmother warm that's why she her name was Angelina and they were the stockings remember the old Italian women that were the stockings with the black they were all black after those ones died and the stockings went up to like a certain part and then they kind of rolled them down. Do you remember that?

Well, I remember them rolling down like they would just roll down on their own like oh no

they were they roll them down. Roll them down. Yeah,

it was crazy crazy. So anyway, we're still talking about penny Oh had a good pantyhose story. What? Back in the day when? No women don't wear pantyhose anymore. They like what are they wear? I don't they just canceled pantyhose one day they just told me like Sorry. So what do they do? They were not nothing. Well, your granola people Yeah, no girls, they were like nothing in the winter like the legs are perfect is no like sound like Zana you get me all excited granola girls, the rest of the population was like oh my god that canceled pants. Are they wearing tights now tighter in Oh,

wait so the tights replace shear pantyhose, so they're no longer around?

Well, they must be I think the Rockettes still wear them but

it's like ooh, that's what about the line the ones with the line in the back?

It used to be sexy right? Yeah, pinup girls in the sexy. Anyway, fast forward two legs eggs. That was a big thing at one time. I remember seeing that generational these have a display and all those drugstores and the pantyhose came in an egg right so I had so many legs eggs I thought what am I gonna do with these eggs? There has to be something creative. And one Christmas I said I'm gonna make all my legs eggs into Christmas ornaments. I did pick all the eggs that I might put a different like Sydney scene inside each one and on the outside all kinds of ribbons and jewelry and I to this day every Christmas when I open the box yes my legs egg ornaments I think oh my god I was a genius. So

what was the point of wearing pantyhose anyway? Well, to keep your legs warm or to make them look better I don't even know

make them look better. Is that right? Yeah because it oh they make you tight little tighter and a little smoother and it deflects any kind of like you know veins and things whatever that's why oh pegs and tights now do the trick. Yeah. Oh pig tights on pigs and I don't want to dress in so long though. This whole pandemic thing? Where you going in a dress so though Oh yeah. People are so sick and tired of wearing you know, I guess pajamas and leggings and just looking like crud there's actually a trend happening right now for like lingerie like these flowy night dress things in satin. No, I'm not kidding. I'm using my hands to explain satin and silk. Like night dresses are in. Really good. Women are like okay, we got to try something

so is it kind of getting back to um days of when when women would get dressed up and all that do you think people are gonna skirt start get started getting dressed up all over again

look I'm gonna go out I was rooting for to be the roaring after the roaring 20s 20s That's what I mean I was I had so much fringe lined up this post pandemic sense that I'm just waiting to pull the trigger I gotta be honest with you. It's gonna be all fringe all day. Even my windshield wipers I'm gonna car we're gonna be friends. I got to break out
