00:20Okay, actually embarrassing for me, ready?
00:23After we first met and we got each other's numbers,
00:25I put your number on my phone as Charli XCX
00:29and then I went, you can't do that.
00:31You've got to be cool.
00:32So then I looked up your full name, Charli.
00:35I was literally like, I'll put Charli, her last name.
00:38Atchison.
00:39Atchison?
00:40You're like, yes, it's pronounced wrong,
00:43but I know what you're going for.
00:44You know me.
00:45And I even know your middle name, Emma,
00:47because it's one of my best friends' names, Emma.
00:50Wow.
00:51Birth name, boom.
00:52Wow.
00:53It's pronounced Atchison.
00:54Atchison.
00:55And then I took it out of my phone too,
00:57because that felt weird.
00:58So it's just Charli.
01:00What was my college major before I dropped out?
01:05Was it something in music?
01:07No.
01:08What is that big major that everybody does?
01:10It's not that.
01:11It's not that one.
01:12I don't know what that is, but it's not that.
01:13Do you know what I mean?
01:14It's like MCC or CC or communications?
01:17No.
01:18Fuck.
01:19I don't know.
01:20It was fine art.
01:21Fine art.
01:22Okay.
01:23That's closer than I went too far.
01:25I went too far for music.
01:26We went off the...
01:27I went off the...
01:28Okay.
01:29So no point there.
01:30Shits.
01:31Where did we meet?
01:33We met doing your podcast.
01:35That wasn't an in-person meeting, but I thought that was like our first like chat.
01:40I suppose we did meet at the podcast.
01:41I was actually thinking that we met, as many people do think with their friends nowadays,
01:48on the internet.
01:49Yes.
01:50We met.
01:51Yeah.
01:52Because you were kind of like tweeting about crying in an Uber.
01:53Yes.
01:54For one of my songs.
01:55I was doing exactly that.
01:56Yeah.
01:57And then I think we DMed a little bit.
02:00We DMed.
02:01On X.
02:02We X.
02:03Whatever they call it.
02:04We X'd each other.
02:05We were X'ing all over the place.
02:06Yeah.
02:07And then I...
02:08And then we just...
02:09We kept...
02:10We kind of kept going back and forth.
02:11We kept it going.
02:12I feel like it was like DMing into the podcast, into...
02:16And then to like real life Hanks of LA.
02:19You get a point for that.
02:20Ooh.

02:34So I was like, okay, I'm done.
02:36Everyone, you know, you can't be, you know.
02:38I think it's cool to get cancelled on Letterboxd.

02:41And have like, you know, a fun hot take.
02:43And just be real.
02:44Like you gave your opinion on a film.
02:45On a film.
02:46Is the audition one of yours?
02:48No, but I do love that film.
02:50But it's not in my top four.
02:51But it could be in another life.

06:08That's right.
06:09But the like, you could watch me pull up on your body like it's summer.
06:15Wait a second.
06:16You could watch me pull up on your body like it's summer.
06:19I'm going to take my clothes off in the water.
06:21Splash around and get you wet like holy water.
06:24Boom.
06:25Amazing.
06:26That was pretty good.
06:27Okay.

06:29Do you know when the words sort of blend in and then you choose your words there?
06:32It's what I do when I sing it.
06:34I don't enunciate.
06:35Okay.

06:53It's so hard to keep them clean.
06:54Grubby.
06:55Same with my phone.
06:56Dirty, dirty, dirty.
06:57So often when I'm wearing them I really can't see it down.
06:59Can't see anything.
07:00I'm sort of stumbling around a bit like this.
07:02Yeah.
07:03But it's fine.
07:04I style it out.

07:37Okay.
07:38Yeah, Britney.
07:39What is a pet peeve of mine?
07:41I have to think about this.
07:42Okay.
07:43Oh, I've got it.
07:44People crowding your space or like standing like on the shoots we've been on.
07:49Sometimes we'll like look at monitor and then everyone, everyone comes and then we're all like too many people making a decision.
07:55Well, it's, I guess it's kind of...
07:57Not like a like, get away from me, but like a, like not being able to, I think like deep up.
08:03Yeah.
08:04Okay.
08:05Okay.
08:06I actually came to confront you.
08:07Yeah, great.
08:08I suppose it could be kind of related to that, but it's like when someone can't just like say the thing that they want to say.
08:14Oh, yes.
08:15Passive aggressive.
08:16When someone's kind of trying to kind of like mollycoddle you and be like, oh, I just, like, just spit it out.
08:23Just say the truth.
08:24Say the thing.
08:25Like don't baby me.

08:44I think you grew up on the east coast somewhere.
08:49Yes.
08:50And you're right.
08:51Near New York.
08:52So this is, you're so right, because born in Massachusetts, grew up in Connecticut.
08:56I was going to say Connecticut.
08:58It's sort of tri-state area general.
09:01Right.

14:28That was really, really fun.
14:29That was my favorite.
14:30Okay, point for that.
14:31What was my line in the 360 music video?
14:33Charlie!
14:35Um, and then you go like, you're like, oh my god, Charlie, thank goodness you're here.
14:40Charlie, oh my god, thank goodness you're here.
14:43Yeah.
14:44Oh my god, Charlie, thank goodness you're here.
14:46Something like that.
14:47Yes.
14:48And you're wearing like a headband.
14:49Yes.
14:50And you really like pop to the side and your hair does a little wiggle.
14:52It's very cute.
14:53Yeah.
14:54And you're like, oh my god, Charlie.
14:55And it goes, you know?
14:56Yep.
14:57Yeah.
14:58It's exactly that.
14:59What tattoo did I recently get?
15:02You got, okay, you might have got another one since, but I don't think you have.
15:07You got a tattoo at the after party of the premiere of your show.
15:13Yes.
15:14I guess it says I love LA.
15:16Okay.
15:17No, it said something else.
15:18There was a miscommunication.
15:19It was a tiny tattoo.
15:20It was a tiny tattoo.
15:21I don't know where you got it.
15:22Tiny tattoo on my ankles.
15:23There was a miscommunication with the cast because we were drunk.
15:27Everyone else got I love LA.
15:29I got two little hearts.
15:31Okay, amazing.
15:32So then afterwards, the next day everyone was like, I'm matching tattoos.
15:35Oh no.
15:36And then we all pulled out our tattoos and I was the only person with hearts.
15:39Wow.
15:40Everyone else said I love LA.
15:41Is that your only tattoo?
15:42Only tattoo.
15:43Fuck, marry, kill, Instagram, TikTok, X.
15:46You would fuck Instagram, marry, TikTok, kill, X?
15:49I would say other way around with TikTok and Instagram.
15:53And Instagram.
15:54Because, but kill, X.
15:56Are you still on there?
15:57I recently, like, reactivated my ult.
16:02But then I deleted it, but I went back on to sort of check in.
16:06Yeah.
16:07I had to check in and I said, it's not going well.
16:10No.
16:11But I would say marry Instagram because I'm like, we've been together the longest.
16:15Yeah.
16:16You know?
16:17The steady, steady kind of.
16:19Steady, yes.
16:20Stable.
16:21Yeah.
16:22I want to give her a half point.
16:23What is my biggest ick?
16:25I feel like you don't like, like, actory actors.
16:33Or, like, overly annoyingly, like, earnest kind of people that you sometimes meet in the industry.
16:41Who are just, like, really like, ugh, shut up.
16:43Wow.
16:44Yeah, those people.
16:45Aye.
16:46Yeah.
16:47But I don't know if that's, like, your number one ick of all time.
16:49But I can imagine that that, like, grosses you out a bit because you're so not like that.
16:53I think too serious is, like, is not good.
16:57Mm-hmm.
16:58That's a good ick.
16:59What is your, like, biggest ick, though, actually?
17:01I don't like when someone is, like, rude to their girlfriend or boyfriend.
17:05Like, kind of, like, digs at them in front of other people as, like, their...
17:10Do you know what I mean?
17:11As, like, a way to be, like...
17:12Well, also, I feel like you like to keep the vibes pretty, like...
17:16Chill up.
17:17Yes.
17:18...and happy.
17:19And I can see that you in that situation, you would be, like, really kind of...
17:21So stressed.
17:22...overcompensating and, like, stressed and trying to, like, lighten the mood.
17:25Yes.
17:26But also wanting to, like, die inside.
17:27Yeah.
17:28You have this many points.
17:31You got this many points.
17:33I'd say we learned more than we knew.
17:36We learned more than we knew.
17:38But I want to say I felt we learned things about ourselves.
17:41I was like, what am I doing on a Tuesday?
17:43And now we know you're not watching your show as it drops.
17:46As it drops.
17:47No.
