I’m Brittany Broski, and my last meal would be an ice cold Pepsi, with spicy tuna crispy rice, and ponzu Brussels sprouts, chicken and dumplins with some Chick-fil-A sweet tea, crawfish etouffee with sweet cornbread and salty greens, damn , and raw cookie dough for dessert. ‘Cause I’m an American citizen. Every person has exactly two things in common, we all gotta eat and we all gotta die. Brittany Broski, welcome to the show. Facts. Right? Thank you for having me. No problem. Hey, this is my last wish. Is it actually? It is. That’s incredible. So like, this is something you’ve thought about before. You’re like, “As I die, I would like to have my last meal prepared by myself and the rest of the Mythical Kitchen.” Well, yeah, like, as I’m about to die, I’d like to just go to the Mythical studios one last time. That’s incredible. Is it like through the Make-a-Wish Foundation, or this is just like your own- It’s just the Broski Nation Funeral Fund. Just the- That’s what it is. So your last meal is something that you’ve thought about before. Like, this is something that’s ever present on your mind. Yeah, but you know what, it’s only, like, I was shocked when y’all sent through… Let me give some background, behind the scenes footage. Please, break the fourth wall. We got the email and I was like, “Oh my dream, like, of course I’ll do it.” And then they were like, “We want a bulky description of, like, it’s not just one item, it’s like a bunch.” And I was like, “Okay.” So I had to think about it for a second, ’cause I’ve always said, for some reason, I’m gonna die in Louisiana. I just feel that in my soul. Interesting. I don’t know why. I’ve only been to Louisiana, like, twice. And my death row meal would be crawfish etouffee. So that’s always been number one. But everything else, I was like… Yeah, throw that in there. So you put some thought into it, and see what was actually important for your life. Exactly. And then I started to realize, “Damn, this is just Southern, like, lard.” I, yeah. I mean, if you don’t actually die today or in the near future, hopefully we can at least inch you towards that- Right. With all the lard and/or the salmonella from the raw cookie dough. That and just, like, my heart is just struggling to, like, keep pumping blood after this meal. It’s gonna be a lot. Is death something you think about a lot? Is that, are you one of those people? Oh yeah. Oh, thank God. My people, my people. Yeah, you have, like, a hyperfixation on it? Big time! Oh, I used to get panic attacks about death all the time. Me! You still do. You! Let’s get one together tonight, right now! All right, Brittany, for your first course, we have spicy tuna on crispy rice. We hand minced the tuna ourselves, mix it with a little bit of sesame oil, sriracha. Topped it with a scallion curl, some fresh jalapeños. This is an L.A. sushi classic. Then we got the fried Brussels sprouts dressed in Ponzu with some chili threads, of course, side of eel sauce and spicy mayo. And then the ice cold Pepsi. Listen. Not Coke. You’re a southern gal and you’re drinking Pepsi? And you know what’s worse, too, is I have a Coke tattoo. We’ll draw, you need someone’s- Don’t tell nobody! Okay? Keep that to yourself. You should laser that out, dude, that’s… Blur that. Please, dig in. I’m- Damn. This is a very Southern meal right here. You have, from the Gulf Coast, the bluefin tuna, famously. No, tell me about this. Tell me about this. This, I always think, and I’m sorry if you are a spicy tuna fan like I am, it always feels like the chef was in the back like Yeah, that’s actually how they make it. That’s how we made it. Yeah, yeah, it was right out of Nicole. She actually went and kind of squished it through her front teeth. Oh, that actually makes it worse, actually. Now, in my brain. Actually, what spicy tuna really is is maybe worse. It’s, like, all the meat that’s stuck to the spine- And you don’t have to tell me that. All right, cool, dig in. You actually didn’t have to say any of that, so. That’s awesome. Oh you’re right. I’m going hands- Listen. If you don’t mind me being just absolutely- Did I wash my hands? No. No, absolutely not. I, here’s the thing. No, for legal purposes, I do wash my hands, whatever. You went with the spicy tuna. Ew. Mm. Oh yeah. That’s great. Look, that’ll do it every time. Mhm. Okay? It’s hard to mess this up. Do you have an intimate connection with this, or is it just something you enjoy eating? You’re like, “Screw it, I’m about to die.” No, this is like, if I’m at any Asian fusion restaurant, I’m like, “Where is the spicy tuna?” Mhm. “I know you got it.” Mhm. And it has to be done so well because, okay, this is such a first world problem. When you Postmate crispy rice, and it shows up and it’s not crispy? Yeah. What’s worse? Oh, literally nothing in the world is worse than Postmating sushi and the rice doesn’t show up- Look, I can’t think of one thing that’s worse than that. Not even a little bit. No. You know, my Jewish grandma was born in 1902? She probably couldn’t either. No, she’s never had soggy crispy rice. Never had soggy crispy rice. Dig into the Brussels sprouts, I’m curious- Oh yeah. What, you’re about to die, you’re eating greens. That’s weird. Yeah, well, listen. It’s doused in sauce. This is to lubricate the arteries. Yeah. No, literally, the greens are just a sponge for the sauce and the fry oil. Yes. And that’s great. Damn that’s good. God, that’s so good. Now, how do you shred a chili like that? Hmm, yeah. That’s not real. It’s all from Nicole’s mouth. Most of the cooking just comes from Nicole chewing things up- She’s got- Spitting it out, and then dehydrating it. Yeah, razor sharp teeth. She’s got it. Speaking of Brussels sprouts, what’s the worst panic attack because of death you’ve ever had? Oh, I thought you were gonna ask “How bad do you fart?” No, do you? The answer’s “Bad.” The other day was the first time in my car that I was actually afraid of asphyxiating because I farted. It was a really cold morning and I farted so much that I was literally like, “This is just CO2 poisoning here.” Like I might- That was pure methane. It’s just, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You can actually die. It’s happened before. No, really. You talk about having death anxiety. Yeah, yeah. ‘Cause I feel like most people do and they should because, my god, that is a frightening concept. Hey, there’s nothing scarier about all this. Eternal nothingness! You know? Well, it’s this thing of… Were you raised religious? No, I was raised, like, Jewish, but more culturally so. And so I didn’t grow up with a lot of theology. But you were raised religious. I was raised very religious, Southern Baptist. Mm, that’s the most. It’s actually like, top tier- “S-tier,” as the kids say. Hey, by the way, when I, like, got to a sentient age and I was like, “Damn, what was ‘Footloose’ about? They, like, couldn’t dance ’cause God said so? Hey, what’s that about, by the way?” My whole understanding of the afterlife was framed in this, like, “Will you or won’t you be accepted into Heaven?” Mm. And like, I guess that’s kind of the purpose is, like, it’s a moral guidepost. Yeah. Right? And like, you need to be, you need to have the fear of God in you to be accepted into the Kingdom of Heaven. And I just, like, I think that is so dangerous because you’re not doing it for the right reasons. That’s so selfish. Mm. And I think that that is where Christians get it wrong a lot of the time is, like, you’re not living to you know, create a peaceful world with your fellow man, like the Bible teaches. Hmm. You’re living very selfishly so you make it to Heaven. When I kind of let go of that, and I let go of, “What if there is no afterlife?” Oh bitch, spiral. Spiral. Yeah. You know when you can’t catch your breath? It’s that. ‘Cause, but that’s the point of religion, right? If you look at religion as, like, oh this is actually something to spread morality, to, you know, heal the world, et cetera. Mhm. They use that phrase in Judaism a lot. It doesn’t really make a lot of sense when you dive deep. Mhm. Like you said, it’s a selfish thing. But, if you look at religion as just making people fear death so they, like, kind of stay alive, you know what I mean? So you can keep ’em in check. So you can keep ’em in check. You’ve said that, you know, you missed the ignorance of being in religion- Yeah. Very much. Which, I missed that I never had that ignorance. I would love that ignorance. Yeah, you’ve, like, never had a path where you felt secure on. Mm-mm. It’s always kind of been floating. I have friends who were raised agnostic, or raised with no religious influence at all, and they are the most lost people I’ve ever met. Uh huh. You know, like, it’s one thing to have religious trauma, but to just be out there by yourself, that’s scary. Right, now you moved to L.A. with the heathens, you stopped speaking in tongues. I did, I did. The gay people, I became friends with them- Ah! And it just went downhill from there. Listen, they seem like they have a great time. I mean, come on. Look, they have a great time but Hell is hot. Hell is hot. Yeah. My family, my grandparents specifically, they always come at me with, you know, like, “You moved to L.A. and you just, child, I don’t know who you are.” And I’m like, “Mimi, you didn’t know who I was ever.” Yeah, yeah. You know, ’cause I’ve been presenting as that little Southern, the Southern woman. You know, she doesn’t leave the house without makeup on. She’s married and has a college degree by 21. She has kids by 24. You know, it’s like, it’s this perfect life that’s been kind of planned out for you, especially as a white woman from the south. Yeah. And I just rejected it always, but I played to it with my family because you don’t wanna be the black sheep. Sure. You know, I wouldn’t come out, like, yelling all of these incredibly leftist slogans just to- Yeah yeah. You know, my family is just not, they’re not in the mindset to even be receptive to any of it. Hmm. So, I moved to L.A. and I was like, “I have never been more myself.” And that’s what they don’t understand. You know, so it’s like all that… To bring back to religion, it’s like I’ve found this new sense of self and freedom, but all that security I had for post-life, gone. Mhm. So, what, is it a worthy trade? No, but I mean, would you trade that amount of safety and security for, you know, actually coming to the realization of who you are today? Talking about it definitely helps. ‘Cause it’s when you’re alone in your room, thinking, you know, like, “Is this it? This can’t be it.” Yeah. “We’re on this earth to suffer and giggle sometimes, but that’s it, and then we die?” I just spit on you, and I’m sorry about that. Is that, No, that’s cool, you know. That’s part of it. That’s part of the suffering and giggling. Do you think like, is it just creating a higher ratio of giggling to suffering? Oh, always. That’s it. That’s my life mission. That’s like Christianity, the Bible, the Old Testament, Quran, all that, it’s all just summarizing “giggle more than you suffer.” And that actually is gonna be on a t-shirt that we’re gonna sell. Boom. That literally is it. Buy the merch. And then we’re gonna link it right here. Put, it’s just a link to my YouTube channel. Please, right here, thank you so much. All right, Brittany, course number two, we got southern style chicken and dumplins. We actually used Dolly Parton’s recipe to make this. Did you really? This is, we did! We did. We used a dairy-free base. So yeah, simple shredded chicken, dumplings boiled in there, a little bit of parsley on top. And then to complete the Southern meal, we got the gigantic sweet tea. Listen. Chick-fil-A. I am, like, kicking my feet under the table like a little girl. Like, laying on her bed, like, writing in her diary. I’m like, kicking my- I’ve never had, I’ve never had this. You’ve never had a Chick-fil-A sweet tea? I’ve never had, I don’t know what to tell ya. You’ve had haggis and you’ve never had Chick-fil-A sweet tea? I’ve had tons of haggis. Oh man, I’ve had organ meats that you couldn’t imagine. Excited to try it. Should we cheers it? Oh, damn. God, that is… It’s just sugar. I know, but how do they, how do they dissolve so much in there? It’s the love of Christ. That’s what I say. God bless you. That is really what it is. And it’s been my pleasure. It is. That’s the Christian chicken. Oh my God, it really is. Dig into the dumplins. All right, here we go. Now, I am the dumpling fiend, so. Wow. We’ll have to rate this. Is this a dish you grew up eating? Mhm. That’s good. You got it, it’s salty. Oh that- It’s so salty. Yeah, yup. It’s so good. But then, you got the sugars to take out the salts. You see what I’m working with now? I understand this. And if you even try to have a drop of water, forget about it. Did you grow up with, like, drinking water being a thing? ‘Cause I didn’t. No! We drank no water growing up. We drank milk with every meal. A hundred percent. You did too?! Yes, yes. That was the thing. That’s like, parents of our generation were just like, “You gotta drink milk, it builds strong bones.” Yeah, what the was that? I have no idea. And then I just had hormonal acne, by the way. So thanks, Mom. I was just a horse. I mean, I think all the hormones in it just made me deadlift 300 pounds when I was 14. Rippling muscles! Truly. Yeah, Josh is 12. I had the densest bones you’ve ever seen, my god. The weight limit on an elevator always, so they’re like, “Josh, get off.” Crushing my couch. Damn! Wow. I would go as far as to say that’s better than Cracker Barrel. That’s huge. That’s huge. But it’s not better than my mom. So I have to humble you guys. Speaking of your mom, she hunts ghosts. She does. That’s crazy. Yeah. Is she a Christian? But you’re talking about religious trauma, yeah, yup. How do you square it? You know what I, like, roast her about all the time? So I was raised Christian, obviously, like, First Baptist Church. When she goes out on these ghost-hunting expeditions, she’s saying Catholic prayers. Hmm, mhm. Mom, make it make sense. And I’m like, “How do you reconcile that between what you believe, and then what, you know, the ghost-hunting ‘community’ practices?” Mhm. And, you know, like, you say the- Yeah. Prayer of Archangel Gabriel, and you do this, and you, “You will not follow me home! Bless this home, whatever.” She’s like, “You just believe it.” You know, It’s like, “Out of, exorcisms and all that.” It is always Catholic. Yeah. And I’m like, “Damn, it’s just the Catholics that are haunted. That’s crazy.” Okay, so I have this general theory, right, that people, all they want is community. Mhm. And that’s why religion is such a big thing. They want community and they want to feel something. Acceptance. Acceptance. And you have found your own community within, I don’t know if “stan culture” is a slur. It’s not a slur. But I’ve heard the term “stan culture.” Sure. Just as an outsider, It doesn’t feel right. I’ll say that. Okay. But no, but I mean, you’ve been on, like, both sides of stan culture, right? Mhm. In the sense that you were you were writing 1D fanfic. You broke down crying- All right, hey. Oh, sorry. Okay, oh, sorry. I didn’t mean to bring up 1D- Wait, who? I have never done that. She has never done that, to be clear. And I’ve never written Robert Downey Jr. fanfiction either. What era of RDJ? What’s up? Like, we’re talking, like, “Iron Man”? He was in these awful movies in the 80s and it like- Yeah yeah yeah. But then he had the, there was the, you know, the whole, like, the drug thing and then… Yeah, this is pre-that. It’s pre-that? Yeah. My God. When he was, like, early- to mid-twenties and there’s this movie called “Only You” and it has, I forget the lead girl’s name in it, but it, like, made me a woman. Incredible. Like, seeing Robert Downey Jr. in that movie. Hey, don’t ask me any follow-up questions, okay? Thank you. No, not about that. I mean, I got, I got other follow up questions, but I’m fine to let that one lie. Yeah, that one. Let that one rest. I was gonna, like, spin off on this whole theory that celebrities are our new gods and that we worship them as, you know, people did in religious ceremonies. Like, watching you break down and cry meeting Harry Styles- All right. I mean, no, but for real, that’s a religious experience. No, you’re right. You know what I mean? And that’s a very real thing. You’re so right. No, it very much is. And it’s also the celebrity culture of, like, the 50s and 60s. Mhm. Even into, like, the 90s, I would argue it is so much worse today. Yeah. Like, we really saw the fatal effects of, you know, stardom with people like Janis Joplin, Amy Winehouse, where it’s like, the attention and the spiral into drug use and, just, hopelessness is a direct effect of the press and, you know, fans and whatever. The level we see today with, like, the way people worship the Kardashians. Mhm. They worship internet figures. They worship these people who, like, are just normal people. They wipe their butt the same way you and I do. But I get it, because like you said, I’ve been on both sides. So it’s like, it means so much because you form a personal connection with those people. I mean, I literally had a parasocial relationship with Rhett and Link. Yeah. For the longest time, then I met them, and I was like, “Oh, they’re just men.” Like, did that really, like, break? That broke the bond? It didn’t break the bond because I will always have a nostalgic, like, apprec, like, gratefulness for… You know, they got me through a specific time the same way that Cody and Noel got me through a specific time. And Jenna Marbles- The same way that Jesus gets a lot of people some times. The same way that Jesus has carried me by my shoulders through it all. And that’s really the truth. Do you think as content creators we are ultimately doing a bad? No. Because we’re the ones that are, like, supplying the demand, right? Sure. It’s the common argument of like, “Well is a drug dealer a bad person? If the demand already exists, they’re just fulfilling- Damn, a little abstract there. This is how I think all the time. And of course I love my job and I love what I do. Sure. But you know, depression rates in teens seems to be very linked to social media. A hundred percent. And then they’re out here consuming it. Do you think there’s any culpability there? It’s a multifaceted issue because there always will be those creators that make you feel inferior. Hmm. You’re not doing this enough. Someone’s better at your craft than you. They’re prettier than you, they’re stronger than you. They’re whatever. And then there’s the flip side where it’s like, kind of the area that me and, like, Sarah Baska fall into of like, we’re just the bestie. Yeah. So I’m not inherently here to make you feel bad or, like, make you feel like you need to change something. I’m here to make you giggle and, you know, bond over things that we all like. And like I said, you know, I’m a victim of it and I’m also, I guess, in the position where I’m doing it now. But it’s like, would I rather go back to the bank? No. No. Abso, that’s the one thing we can all agree on. Right. I’ll die before I go back to a cubicle. No, and period. Yeah. A hundred percent. Brittany, for the third course we have crawfish etouffee with some rice in the middle. This is fresh crawfish from Louisiana, Cajun trinity. We actually made it dairy-free, as well. You’re welcome. Lot of margarine in there. Speaking of margarine, we got cornbread right here in the skillet. Plenty of butter, salt, honey. Very sweet. And then we got extra salty greens for you with the smoked ham hock. Listen, the amount of sodium on this table could kill a Victorian child. Yeah, definitely. Three Victorian children. Three. Depending on how anemic they are. And they were all anemic, I’ll tell you what. All of ’em. Every last one! Alright, dig in, dig in, dig in. I’m going right for the etouffee. I could cry. I’m going in here. Okay fine, I’ll go. I can’t, you know, you’re the guest. You’re not cutting, you’re just eating it with a spoon? I love that. Oh, I didn’t even realize. You know, I’m just, look, you’re lucky I didn’t use my hands. Can I go for the filet? Is this sacrilegious? Wait! To just go right for the tenderloin? You’re so smart. Thank you. “The tenderloin.” I almost graduated college! The flank of the cornbread. Now cheers to you and yours. Oh man. To God, country, and family. God, country, and family. Like, you guys. You’re all, this is all you. These are bad people. That’s y’all two? You’re doing the Lord’s work. Oh hey, did you taste the etouffee? Not yet. I need to know if it’s proper, ’cause we tried our best. Okay. I assumed you were from Louisiana. Mm-mm. With the etouffee in there, but you just identify with Louisiana culture. Mhm. Yeah. Ooh, it’s got a kick to it. A lot of cayenne in there. You didn’t cook this, did you? Nope. Proud of you guys! You guys! This is Nicole. Nicole is on the mic on this one. We all spit in the food, though. That’s what we all do. Well that I, you know, it’s the secret ingredient is COVID. Uh huh, correct. Yeah, yeah. That’s COVID spit. Mhm. Yeah. Can you tell me why a fan once DM’d me to say, “Chef Daddy, run me over with a cement truck, then pour Rice Krispies in my spilled entrails”? Yes. You are, you are the only person in the world that I could trust to just say “Yes.” to that question. Why? Why do they do it? ‘Cause you’re hot and sexy. Thank you! You’re welcome. I think we’re both hot and sexy, to be clear. Thank you. And you know, we deserve- Thank you. The language of death is so prevalent, to me, in stan culture. And I see that a lot. And I know this is the most, like, Boomer-ass question I could ask, but still, I need to understand, like, why that’s a thing. That’s about, “How do I get their attention by saying the most revolting thing possible? They have to respond to me.” This is a strange meta-question because we are on the show being watched by fans, that is running the ads that are paying the bills that can buy the fresh crawfish for the etouffee. Facts, facts. And so, a large part of both of our careers are just fueled by the fans. And of course the vast, vast majority of them are freakin’ awesome, and love them to death. Mhm. But there’s always this push and pull. Like, you’re simultaneously loved and hated. Oh yeah. Constantly. You get hate online? Are you kidding me? Oh dude. Who the hatin’ on you? There’s entire Reddit threads. Because I would ask the same about you, but you get hate online. I mean, you’re a woman online, especially. Well that, that’ll do it. That’ll do it. That’ll do it. And that’s the thing I think about a lot is just this simultaneity of love and hate. Good word. But how do you deal with that? Which do you choose to listen to? How do you deal with that? What do you get hate for? I am having a hard time understanding. I am, I’m a know-it-all. I’m annoying. Someone said- I get that one too. But that’s it. Like, literally, to, you have to be annoying. You have to be a little bit annoying to put yourself on YouTube. Definitely. If you’re just boring, if you’re not taking any risks, nobody’s gonna watch. Yeah, if you’re too cool for what we’re doing, what we do online is, like, the most goofy goober- Hmm. Cuckoo crazy silly. The God-honest truth is I don’t deal with it well. Yeah. It’s just things that I didn’t even know I needed to be self-conscious about those things. Mhm, same. Like, ’cause I knew I had a big forehead, but it was like, “Goddamn! Y’all really are…” It’s hidden, yeah. Oh yeah. They got the curtains over it. Oh, yeah, smart. But it’s, you know, it’s things like that. Especially as a woman, like, my body gets picked apart. And it’s like, you wouldn’t do that to Cody Ko. Yeah. No one’s commenting on Cody’s videos, “Cody, thank you for representing my body type.” But they do it to me? It’s like, what are we talking about? Yeah, yeah. So, I don’t know, it’s, you can be incredibly grateful because I am, you know. But all that, after a while, kind of adds up. A hundred percent. And there are have been moments where I’m like, “I would rather work at Outback Steakhouse.” Yeah. Like I would rather just ” it all, delete everything.” Mhm. There are moments where it just, you know, people dogpile and it’s just awful. But I haven’t, and I won’t. Yeah. You know, ’cause that’s, that’s like, those moments are fleeting. If you open yourself up for the positive interactions and let people in that way, then you, by default, have to open yourself up to the thousands upon thousands of negative interactions. Hmm. Right, so to me it’s like, you’re either, this is either all holding water or none of it holding water. Either all of this means something or none of it means anything. Like, I have a personal relationship with each and every one of my followers. And it’s so fun, but it can get dangerous. Do you have an escape, do you have an escape plan? Like you have a timetable like, “Yo, five years, out. Outback Steakhouse.” You’re gonna be a franchisee. Yeah. You know, No. But I do, in like three to five years, want to kind of relax a bit. Dream big! But I can’t. Yeah, I’d like to just, like, kick my feet up, have a sweet tea. But no, I don’t wanna stop. Yeah. Like, I don’t, that sounds boring. Agreed. I don’t know what else I’d do. No, that’s literally it. We could work at the bank. You and me. Like rob it? So when I said work at the bank, what part of that said “rob the bank”? Because that’s way more plausible than me just being able to, like, stand on my feet for eight hours and interact with customers I’m not- What, you can’t give change for a hundred dollar bill? I’d rather rob the bank. No, I can’t count. Are you kidding me? All right, Brittany, for the final course, we got a bunch of balls of raw cookie dough. Ain’t much to it. It’s store bought. The safe stuff to eat. Is the proper way to eat with your hands? Now listen, the way that y’all plated this is incredibly tempting. I want to like, slime, and throw it on the table and like… You can. Well, don’t tell me that, ’cause I will. This table’s been sanitized. You’ll get a couple, you know, some bleach in you, but other than that, you’re good. Nothing that’s not already in there. That’s what I’m saying. I gotta be so honest. I don’t want it to end. Yeah? I’m having a blast. I’m having a blast, too. We can get more courses if you want. Just make stuff up on the spot. They can- Yes! Yeah, yeah. “The next course is a Rice Krispy Treat.” “Just a singular Rice Krispy Treat.” I’m going hands, I’m going hands, screw it. That’s bold. Ah. I’ll go in with a spoon. Where else would you rather be? Listen. When Jimmy Buffett wrote “Cheeseburger in Paradise”- That’s a real song that he did? Yup. It was actually about Mythical Kitchen and about this moment right here that we’re sharing. Is he the investor guy at Berkshire Hathaway? Jimmy Buffett? Who am I thinking of? Warren Buffett? Warren Buffett! No. Warren Buffet is the guy who read “Moonlight”, or that read that “La La Land” won instead of “Moonlight”. Hmm, no, I’m talking about Margaritaville Jimmy Buffet. Oh, okay, okay. Yeah, that’s- I’ve been to his restaurant at Universal. Yes! And that’s, yeah yeah yeah. I’m sorry. Sometimes my brain don’t work too good. Listen, we’re white. You gotta keep up with white culture. Jimmy Buffet is white culture. Yacht rock? Gimme a break. I’m waiting until I’m, like, at least 38 to then really just- What’s that, like, tomorrow? Pretty much. Once I turn 30, there’s this, I have a question. How old are you in your head? In my head? I’m- In your head. 16. Right? No, but like, is that a real thing? Yeah. Have you noticed your head age change as you get older? Mhm. So like you’re, you were, no, okay. This is a thought experiment now. Everybody inside their own head, I believe, has an age they exist in that is different than the age they actually are. Facts. And now you’re just three-years-old. No. Ah! That’s how I feel on the internet sometimes. You know? Is that, how I feel too. That I’m a baby, unattended playing with applesauce. Slapping it on my tray. That’s what we’re all doing on YouTube. We’re just babies with applesauce. You ever see mukbangers? That’s just a baby with a giant tray of applesauce, slappin’ around for people’s entertainment. And this is how I feel talking to you. ‘Cause you scare the shit outta me. What? Oh no, but, are you kidding me? You scared, no, you said something. What’d I say? You said something that scared me. I gotta bring it out. Cut it out! Cut it out, no, no, no. Hold on, my cards are all messed up. They’re like, here we go. Bleep it out! Here we go, here we go. You said before that “TikTok has defined a generation and is probably the best thing that’s ever happened.” And that scared the hell out of me. Do you stand by that? Yeah. That can’t be. You were talking about community earlier. Mhm, yup. Sense of community that TikTok has brought a lot of people together. Mhm. The information sharing? We are aware of so many world crises. TikTok forces you to know. Yeah. And it forces you to care. And I think that that peer pressure, you know, of like your favorite influencer or your friends on social media showing support and doing something about it. Whether it’s performative or not, it’s still raising, you know, awareness in a certain sense. Mhm. I think that the globalization of TikTok is truly a marvel. This is the thing I think about a lot. If social media can spread information, it can spread disinformation. Absolutely. And we’ve seen that, right? So that’s the thing that freaks me out. It’s scary. 2012, Arab Spring was a huge turning point in Twitter and WhatsApp being able to, you know, literally have people start grassroots revolutions. Absolutely. And people in the West cheered watching dictators get overturned. Everything is a lot more complicated than that. Mhm. But it was this universal like, “Oh social media, it’s good, it brings people together.” And then 2016 happened, Trump gets elected, and we start seeing social media being used to just elect autocratic brutal leaders in so many countries around the world, because now they have a mass propaganda platform that everybody is consuming. Yeah. And to me that seems like a net negative, right? Having constantly available information, even if it’s about these crises around the world that people hadn’t heard of. Now you’re getting, like, bad information about that as opposed to, previously, no information. But it’s a weird trade off. It is a weird trade off. And you know what it has to do with is generation. Hmm. I think my parents are very smart people, but sometimes, like, they wouldn’t be able to tell a deepfake of Tom Cruise. Yeah. That’s something I know how to- Yeah. Listen, I see it and I’m like, “I know Tom Cruise would never do that.” Tooth in the middle, right? It’s like, my parents don’t have that insider knowledge of growing up with a device in your hand. Yeah. My siblings, who are six years younger than me, they know probably more than I ever will. And it’s purely because of the starting off point of information that they’re, you know, exposed to. Mhm. But, there’s also doctoring tweets, and doctoring videos, and you know, it’s like, what is real? It really gives me anxiety. Yeah! Speaking of anxiety, what happens when you die? No, I’m really glad you asked that. No, no, no. But okay. Where are you at in terms of, like, an afterlife now? Like, if you were just a bettin’ woman, what happens after you die? Just, is it eternal nothingness and it’s just live for the now? No. Ghosts? Maybe. I have settled on, to take the place of God, the universe. Look at that! I just changed- You just changed the name and suddenly it’s the same thing! That’s clever. I changed the name and suddenly, I feel okay. I think that humanity is the universe experiencing itself. Whoa. In all rotten and fruitful forms. Hmm. I think that to be human is the gift. And that is to be lived while we’re alive. To experience the heartbreak, and the joy, and the crying, and the giggling, and the birth and the death, and all of that is the human experience. And then it’s done. And then it happens again. And it keeps experiencing itself over and over. I think that that is the point of life. And I also think that, in that sense, the afterlife doesn’t matter. All of it is just contained in the universe itself. Right now. Like, you are experiencing the entire universe, the entire universe is experiencing you. And the universe loves crawfish etouffee and cookie dough. Apparently. That’s it. Brittany, you ready to get in the lightning round? What the is the lightning round? You don’t know about the lightning round. All my cards are all jumbled up. We’ve got a lightning round over here. Other than me, who’s the one person, dead or alive, you wanna share your actual last meal with? Share my last meal with? Robert Downey Jr. He’s back, baby! Can we age him down CGI style? Yeah, could we get, like, what they did with Luke Skywalker in “The Mandalorian”? Let’s do that with RDJ. Other than Robert Downey Jr., who’s your dream eulogizer at your funeral? It would have to be, like, Will Ferrell. Hmm. Or like, I would let Josh Gad do it. Who played Olaf in “Frozen”. He did, sure did. Listen, imagine Olaf giving your eulogy. That’s hilarious. In character. In character. I love that, I love that. Who plays you in the biopic about your life? Hmm. Pamela Anderson. Hell yeah. Let’s do it. I think she’s available. She finished the doc, she did great. Yeah, I think she’s done with the documentary. I think she’s free. Who would win in a fight, 50 Harry Styles fans or 50 Swifties? Oh, Harry fans. Yeah? They’ll claw your eyes out. I don’t know anything about these people. No, you know who would win? BTS fans. Oh, Army! Army! I’m a Jimin stan. You said that like you could not care less. I can’t name a single Harry Styles song. Do you have any regrets in life? Coming on this show. You don’t know a single Harry song?! “Watermelon Sugar High” is his. Facts, okay. Is that what the song’s called? No. Okay. Well that’s the one I can name. I’ll take it. My biggest regret in life. I was joking by the way. I love you and I don’t wanna leave. Thank you. My biggest regret in life? I don’t have any regrets. You look like you’re thinking about something. Yeah, I am. What’s the closest thing? ‘Cause there’s something up there going on in that brain. Yeah. I don’t know, I’m just thinking of, like, situations I put myself in, or like I got hurt, when I was like, “I wouldn’t do that again.” But I don’t regret it ’cause I learned from it. Yeah. Are you happy? Yeah. Hell yeah, dude, that’s what I’m talking about. Right? Like- More giggles than suffering. More giggles. I think that life is too funny not to giggle. Mm. Because it’s absurd. Yeah. And if you sit there and you say, “It’s so absurd!” and you have a panic attack, cringe. Panic attacks are cringe. Did you enjoy your last meal? I’m full. Listen, the diarrhea’s gonna hit later. Like it’s gonna, you know like, okay. Not to be gross. What’s up? You know… “What’s up?” You know when you have diarrhea? All the time. Like cons, yeah, it’s a real- God, every day. I’m just, yeah. It’s like a medical problem? Yeah, I’m either squatting heavily or putting foods deep in my mouth. Like I just… You know when you’re having diarrhea, and you finish, and you feel so skinny? Yes! It’s the best. That’s gonna be, like, the slay after this. Like I’m gonna book it to the green room bathroom and I’m gonna come out and be, like, 10 pounds lighter. We’ll take you to Rhett and Link’s personal bathroom. It’s really nice- Let’s go, dude! I’ll leave them a little gift. I’ll leave ’em a little Hershey’s Kiss. Brittany, upper decker, baby. Thank you so much for being on the show. If you’ve got last words, say them to that camera right there. Balls. Nutsack. The three genders. Thank you so much again, Brittany. We got your Rice Krispy Treat if you wanna stay. Let’s go! I dunno, talk about the worst moment of your life. Oh wait, tell ’em, no, tell ’em where to find you and plug your stuff. Listen, I am Brittany Broski. You can find me on YouTube, Instagram, that’s pretty much it. Outback Steakhouse. You can find me on LinkedIn, on Reddit, Yelp. I leave a lot of great Yelp reviews. Can I tell you, one time I was on Google reviews, and I, I got a Brazilian, okay? I’m a woman, I’ll say it. Hell yeah. And she was so gentle with me. She really slayed. Like, she was great. And I went to leave a review, ’cause I was like, “They were so gentle with me and I just, like, almost cried. But it was great.” And then I left five stars and I was like, “Whatever.” I post it. “Brittany Broski says…” No way! I was on my YouTube account from Google. I was like, no, I can’t talk about how they ripped, ripped my butthole off. Anyway. For the most gentle butthole ripping in town, you’re gonna go to Ajax Butthole Repairs and Cleaners in Burbank, California. They actually paid for this episode. Oh! So yeah. Thank you, guys! Yeah.
