- [Simone] Okay, what do you think I'm hesitant
to tell you right now?
- [Brandon] Um,
you're hesitant to tell me the last time,
why the last time you, you cried, cried
and we don't need to dive into this, I'm good.
(laughter)
Unless you want to, I'm all ears.
I'm a good listener.
- I will actually tell you the last reason,
the last time I cried.
- All right.
- I'll do that 'cause I said I would be open.
- All right, all right, fair enough.
- [Simone] Okay,
the last time I cried was um,
I think it was like maybe two weeks ago.
It was really recent.
- Yeah.
- I got my heart absolutely broken
and still like coming off of that.
Yeah and just kind of like
knowing that things are going to be okay,
like to move past something, but still have that,
that almost like heart string tug,
when you know that it should be gone.
- Yes.
- That was hard and like, I can like feel myself
almost wanting to cry about it, you know?
- And it was like super recent?
- No, well it was like,
it, it ended like pretty badly.
- Yeah.
- Like, you can like feel my energy change.
- Yeah, yeah.
I mean I'm, that's very similar.
I, I feel like that's kinda how my
last relationship ended too is like,
I mean, does any relationship really end like that great?
Like, I just.
- I've heard myths that they end okay.
- I mean, I'm still friends.
Like I'm like mature enough to like
be like, hey, we're adults,
like if I see you out, I'm not going to be weird,
weird about it.
If we, even, if we didn't end on like great terms,
I'm still going to wish you the best
and you know, if I see you out, I'll say what's up.
- That's, yeah.
- I just feel like, yeah,
it's definitely tough when it ends like that.
- And I think like the hardest part for me
was that, like real talk,
I like, I like, I,
I know that I like didn't handle the communication.
So I reached
out eventually and was like, look like, I apologize.
Do you want to try to like, talk about it?
And they agreed to
and I was like, okay, like, let's, let's, let's do this.
And then when I reached out to find out,
"do you want to have the talk today?"
I never heard back.
- Really.
- And I was like, why would you agree to doing that?
- Yeah.
- Why would you say no?
- [Brandon] Like don't build it up
- Like don't do that.
Because I was like, okay like
I get to like, you know, like, we're gonna sort it out.
I get to like, figure that out.
And then it just, I was like, okay.
(laughter)
So that's fine.
- [Brandon] Why do you think I know.
- [Simone] I know.
- [Brandon] He or she blew it off.
- He or she?
- (laughter) I don't know.
- [Simone] Okay, thank you.
- I wouldn't know, it's all right, you know.
(laughter)
- [Simone] I think, I think
I no answer is still an answer, right?
- Yeah absolutely.
- If someone doesn't respond
that's your answer there.
And like, I ha... again, if I reach, they don't
I like,
I'll give you your space.
- Yeah, fair enough.
What would your ex warn me
about being in a relationship with you?
(laughter)
- [Brandon] Okay I want to hear that.
I want to hear what made you laugh.
(laughter)
- [Simone] (stammers) What's the question again?
(laughter)
- [Brandon] What should I be looking out for?
(laughter)
What would you ex warn me
about being in a relationship with you?
What should I be scared of?
- [Simone] That I don't like commitment?
- A word.
- So
- Do you have, like, are you like, what's the word?
Do you like having like multiple partners?
or something?
- No, no my God.
No, no, no.
- Why do you like don't want to be with one person?
- [Simone] No, no, no, no Oh my God, no, no, no.
I think I just like, I, I would take things really slow.
- Yeah.
- So like, don't rush me into something?
- Yeah.
- I want to be like,
best friends with you before that happens.
- Yeah.
- So that's like the, like, why call it?
What, why call it anything until like
I want to claim my best friend before anything else.
- [Brandon] Okay, I see that.
- [Simone] So yeah, in my last relationship
I would really do that
- Okay, you kind of like jumped right into it?
- like both feet.
- Really?
- Yes.
- Head first.
(laughter)
- Yeah.
- And that didn't work out well, all right.
- Cause no communication.
- Yeah, yeah, no
I definitely agree.
Like, I feel like in terms of being best friends, like
you need to know what somebody is about first and foremost.
And like you said,
if you're going into like a relationship like that
being a best friend, just like, it makes it so much easier.
If you don't get stuck in the friend zone.
(laughter)
- True. True, true.
What's something that your ex would warn me about you.
- Hm.
Hmm,
I mean, definitely like the communication thing
like where I just get in my, if we're, especially if it's
like a distance thing, like, I like to talk to my partner
like obviously in a distance relationship
but I don't want to, like every day be
like of each other's ass, like calling and it's like,
I get very consumed with like what I'm presently doing.
Like, I don't want to be
working on something and be worrying
about something that I'm not like if I'm seeing you later
or something like that, it's like, all right
let me zone in right now.
And like, I'll see you later, right?
- Exactly.
Yeah. You need to, you need to stay creative,
like I'm just guessing.
You need, you kind of need your head space.
- Yeah, yeah.
- And like the more distractions more pulls that take you
out of that space it kind of removes the work.
- Exactly, exactly.
So, I mean, that's
that's probably the big thing is just that I, but it can be
to a fault sometimes where it's like, maybe I just like
don't even let you back for a while.
It's like, I dunno.
I know a lot of people
that's kind of a big thing, you know?
So yeah.
What do you think I could teach you?
(laughter)
- I think you could break me out of my, no
I feel like you can somehow make me more outgoing.
- Yeah. I was going to say you seem
like a pretty outgoing person
- But I feel like you would challenge me.
And I would like, I would think
that I'm like embarrassing you and be like, Oh
I'm gonna show you something.
(laughter)
Well you know?
- All right.
All right.
Yeah. I mean, I don't know.
You seem like a pretty outgoing person already,
so I'd have to like really work to like break you
out of that even more.
But yeah.
I mean, I, I like to go out and have a good time, like.
- I think you'd surprise me.
- Maybe, maybe we'll see.
(laughter)
- [Simone] How do you think the state's going?
- Good. Yeah.
I'm having a good time.
I think it's been fun.
I think you're dope.
So no complaints here.
How do you think this day's going?
- I think it's going really great.
- Yeah.
- I think, yeah.
I think it's going amazing.
- Have you ever gone on a blind date before?
- No.
(laughter)
Have you?
- No, this is the first time ever done this.
- This is like beyond the craziest thing I've done.
(laughter)
- For real?
- I flew out from Toronto.
- That's true, that's...
- For less than 48 hours.
- You caught a flight for me.
(laughter)
- I catch flights for you.
- That's nice, I feel it like.
- Exactly.
(laughter)
- I thinks its, I think it's good,
I think, I mean, from the jump
with the music stuff was just like dope.
You know?
- Yeah.
- I couldn't ask for more.
I feel like you had,
come to me with like, Oh, I love country music.
I would have been like, is the door over there.
Like.
(laughter)
- Yeah, if you were playing country, I would have faked ill.
(laughter)
- Like suddenly I just...
- I just, you know...
- Gotta get out of here.
- [Simone] You nervous?
- Not really.
I mean like there's a little, you know, you get for me
like people say they get butterflies.
I get this like tingling sensation in my palms.
I dunno what it is, but yeah.
So a little bit, but not like, Oh my
God. Like, I can't do it.
How about you?
- I wasn't nervous at all.
I was excited.
- Okay.
- But then when we sat down
and I could hear you coming in, I was "ooh I'm nervous"
(laughter)
That's when it hit me. I was
like putting these weak palms.
(Chattering)
- [Simone] I look nervous but,
No, wait, what's the next line.
- [Brandon] I gotta hit the next one?
- Yeah, yeah.
- It's part of the sweaty knees, weak arms, he's nervous.
I don't know.
(chattering)
- He's nervous, wait.
He's nervous.
But on the surface he looks calm
and ready to drop bombs, buddy.
I forget what he wrote down.
The whole crowd goes so loud.
He opens his mouth, but the words won't come out.
He's choking, he's up back to reality.
Oh, there goes gravity.
- [Brandon] Damn are we in eight mile.
Like, I didn't know he about to get a performance.
Yeah.
- Does that prove that I like hip hop.
- That's dope I love it.
That's awesome.
(laughter)
Did you like do performances out there?
- [Simone] I just have, anyways, what surprised me
about this was how much we have in common.
And like, you could like read me really quickly.
- [Brandon] Yeah.
- [Simone] That I, like
- I didn't even know that I was like, I was like
I think this is from...
- Or like, just like, you like this how it is?
it was like a lot of like, how does he know this?
- Yeah.
- Like you're a stranger.
- Yeah. I guess it's just intuition or something.
- It was a lot of like this for me.
(laughter)
- I was like, what did you tell him?
Like.
No that's tough.
That's I, I definitely agree.
We do have a lot in common, in common so that's cool.
- What is next for us?
- [Brandon] I guess I gotta come through to Toronto
to find out, like...
