Drama Dinner w/ Jake Shane | Ep 321 | Bad Friends

Bobby Lee orchestrated a prank on his assistant, Carlos, during a delayed flight. After the pilot requested passengers whose final destination was Detroit to remain seated for those with connections, Bobby texted Carlos to pretend he had a connection. When Carlos rushed to the front, Bobby publicly called him out, exposing the lie to the entire plane and flight attendants.

Bobby texted Carlos, who was in the back, to 'pretend that you have a connection.' Carlos rushed up, saying, 'No, I have a connection.' Bobby then yelled back, 'He's lying! I know him! That's Carlos!'

Bobby recounted a 'drama dinner' where he made his opener, Cat, cry by 'digging deeper' into her personal drama. He claimed his 'Asian eyes' and poor eyesight prevented him from seeing her tears initially, only noticing when her lip trembled.

Bobby states, 'I didn't know that it was going to make her cry... you kept going after I saw the tears start.' He later clarified, 'I'm because I have Asian eyes... I didn't see the welling.'

The hosts and guest debated the emotional impact of the movie 'Project Hail Mary'. Andrew found it 'millennial cringe' and compared it to 'Avengers style' filmmaking, while Bobby and Jake were deeply moved, crying multiple times and comparing its magical feeling to 'ET'. They jokingly labeled Andrew a 'sociopath' for not crying.

Andrew: 'A little too millennial for me. It was like not like millennial cringe.' Bobby: 'If that movie didn't bring you cry bring you to tears, then you didn't connect with what was really going on.' Jake: 'I cried about five times.'

While returning from Mexico, Andrew experienced issues with airport security. A commemorative football was deflated because air pressure changes during flight can cause it to pop. His Theragun massage device was also scrutinized, with agents questioning if it was a 'gun' until he demonstrated its massage function.

Security deflated the football: 'Can't fly with fully inflated the drop in air pressure. It can cause the air inside to expand and make the ball pop.' The Theragun: 'He goes, 'What? What? What? What?' And I was like, 'Oh, massage uh massage.''

Bobby expressed his shock upon learning that 'lamb' is the term for a baby sheep, not a separate species. This revelation led him to refuse eating lamb, drawing a parallel to his avoidance of veal (baby cow).

Bobby: 'I go, 'Do they kill baby lambs?' And she goes, 'What do you mean?' And I go, 'Well, lambs, you know, have babies, right?' Oh, yeah. And she's like, 'No, the lamb is the baby.''

The discussion explored the existence and nature of gay communities globally. It was revealed that Puerto Vallarta is a major gay destination, and Seoul, Korea, has a specific area known as 'Homo Hill'. The hosts noted that in some countries where homosexuality is illegal, these communities exist in secret, often in 'speak easys' or 'pop-up parties'.

Andrew: 'Porto Viarta is like the West Hollywood of the Mexican coast.' Bobby: 'Itwan, specifically the area known as Homo Hill.'

Carlos, a member of the podcast crew, is undergoing a hair restoration procedure at Bosley. Due to the extent of his baldness, it will be a two-stage operation, with the first surgery lasting approximately 12 hours. He expressed excitement about no longer needing to wear a hat constantly.

Bobby: 'Carlos is going into Bosley. They're going to give him a full hair restoration.' Carlos: 'We're going to do it once this year and then potentially in a year they're going to retouch.'

Bobby Lee openly discussed his extensive history with various drugs, including meth, crack, Molly, weed, acid, and mushrooms. He emphasized that addiction is a disease and there should be no shame in discussing it, even humorously.

Bobby: 'So, I've done So, I've done meth. I've done um crack.' He later adds, 'I've done Molly... weed, acid, mushroom... there's no shame in it.'
