This week on Meet My Friends, I’m joined by my brilliant, curious, and always thoughtful friend Phillip Latham — a film producer and walking vault of theories, questions, and intergalactic vibes. And today, we’re going full alien mode.

We kick things off from the hills of Buga, Colombia, where a mysterious floating silver sphere was recently discovered — and then let our minds spiral outward through some of the biggest, weirdest questions we’ve ever asked on the pod.

Are we alone? Are the aliens just hovering silently… waiting? Or are we the drama?

The Buga Sphere and the wild footage out of Colombia

The Simpsons: time travelers? Or just good at pattern recognition?

Tridactyl beings and “non-human biologics” with baby eggs

Lindsay’s Ancient Egypt childhood obsession

The Nazca Lines in Peru 

Crop circles 

“Humans need a daddy being” — a quote by Phil, a theory we now can’t un-hear

👽 It’s aliens. It’s humanity. It’s TikTok brain meets History Channel brain. And somehow, it all makes sense.

Surviving a dark gay influencer friend group (like emo YouTube meets WeHo)

The Pixar Theory (YES, every movie is connected and I had no idea)

Theater snack horror stories

Alien panic, fast food rankings, and universal truths we maybe weren’t ready to say out loud

This week on Meet My Friends, we’re celebrating Pride Month with a special crossover episode from the Reality TV World! My friend, chaotic Scorpio, and bisexual icon Charlie Rojas joins me for a heartfelt and hilarious deep dive into the show that shaped our ideas of friendship, drama, and dream lighting: MTV’s The Hills.

We spiral into the complicated world of LC vs. Heidi, the bisexual urge to be and date the main character, and why true friendship should’ve survived Les Deux. Spoiler: neither Lauren nor Heidi was perfect… except Whitney. Whitney Port was perfect.

🎙️ In This Episode:

Chaotic friendship energy and queer longing through The Hills

LC, Heidi, and the messy art of the friend breakup

Les Deux as a spiritual portal

Bed/Wed/Dead 

And why The Hills still hits all these years later

This week on Meet My Friends, I’m joined by someone who truly embodies the spirit of Pride: the one and only Lord Hammer.

In this powerful conversation, Lord Hammer opens up about his journey through addiction, finding sobriety, and discovering a deep sense of purpose through the LGBTQ+ West Hollywood Dodgeball League. What began as a community rec sport became the foundation for a personal transformation — one that led him to embrace his inner hero and share that power with others.

We talk about identity, queer joy, survival, and the lifesaving impact of chosen family. Lord Hammer doesn’t just represent Pride — he represents community, connection, and courage.

Whether you're in recovery, finding your place in the LGBTQ+ world, or just need a reminder that it's never too late to step into your power, this episode is for you.

🎧 Listen Now to Hear About:

Addiction & sobriety within the queer community

The life-changing impact of community sports like dodgeball

How Lord Hammer created his alter ego and what it means

Embracing queer heroism — on and off the court

Pride Month reflections, resilience, and the power of showing up

This week on Meet My Friends, I’m joined by my friend Nick Estrada to kick off Pride season and spiral into some truly chaotic territory. We’re talking WeHo Pride highlights, drama with exes (his, don’t worry), and why flying is officially canceled — bring back trains.

Nick just got back from Miami, where he hit the Versace Mansion (spoiler: tacky, but the cheesy pasta slapped). Meanwhile, I spent the weekend at Cinespia watching Blue Velvet with my sister and… let’s just say it was a lot. David Lynch fans, please don’t come for us.

We also get into summer plans, concerts, weird weekend energy, and why some films should never be watched in a cemetery. It’s the first taste of summer chaos — and it’s giving everything.
