“Secure the bag”: is a phrase used in popular culture to remind all of us: that it’s money over everything. 

Normally securing the bag is a good thing, except in our girl Cookie’s case because her bag, may come with a lifetime warranty.

As we all settle in to a cozy, fall -mindset; we go back to some old favorites that’ll warm you inside more than your grandmother's hot cocoa. You know the cocoa you secretly spike with Kalua & Baileys when she’s not looking. Yeah, THAT cocoa. Also-not judgement. So consider: are we dating the same guy, you’re Bailey’s; and Denver singles your cognac- two things that have been getting you through this crazy life and 24 straight years of grandma telling the exact same story.

Albert & Cookie also discuss their crazy exes and what is a "dead giveaway” for when somebody has “lost the thread and needs professional help that you cannot provide. Finally, our pair throws a life vest…not a lifevest. What’s the circle thing that’s also an emoji? The orange circle thing that people don’t really use in emergencies, but it’s always on some cokehead's yacht, on the wall of a mid-tier fish place or a fancy rooftop pool that’s impossible to drown in? Whatever. We throw one of those to a SWIMmer who needs help telling a friend, “you’re f*cking up our circle.”

All that and more as well as what you call the: circular-orange-“life-vest” that you can’t wear you can just throw to people- in this episode. Enjoy.

“Goin’ to the Berkshire’s and we’re gonna get married…” 

That’s right! 

The five episode story arc of Corinne going to our beloved Sami's wedding has finally reached its climax, where’s a hotel wash cloth and a cig when ya need it!? 

We know Sami found true love, but did Corinne ?

In other news, Our girl Coco was so kind as to share a super embarrassing celebrity encounter at a discount store’s- discount store?

Corinne explains why she and her folks went antiquing, not for antiques, but for discontinued murder weapons last used in the Dark Ages.

This show has it all: love & loss, joy and embarrassment at a Macy’s; but we hope you walk away understanding that sometimes sliding into one’s DM's works to perfection. 

Disclaimer: Usually it get’s you:

blocked, mocked, screen-shotted and embarrassed. 

But we’re focusing on the positive in this episode. Enjoy!

In this episode, we take a departure from our normal journey along the road of “broken people”. That was actually going to be the name of this podcast: "Semi-normal people making fun of others."

Fortunately, My Safe Word Is More was just too good to pass up; the same can be said for this episode. It is absolutely too good to pass up. Our SWIMmers will notice that we take a step back from our beloved: vouch dating as well as sidestep Denver Singles- until next week.

Why? Well that is a question only one of us can answer.

Our girl Corinne has a story that demands all of the show’s time & focus- and that’s just what we gave it. 

ENJOY.

"What’s your price?" *You thought of a number didn’t you? If that number is roughly the price of a half-decent meal at Outback do we have a site you. 

What is Poly? Coco searches for for an exact answer to a somewhat opaque question. SWIMmers that are currently or were formerly; in such a situation- write us! We know nothing! 

We nose dive directly into to some horrendous Bumble profiles including a guy that wants to make an interesting lifetime commitment on the first date. As well as a gaggle of men that want to make you the Bell of the Ball. “Center of attention” has never been more appropriately applied to a situation than this one.

Finally Al has a email like no other that seeks the advice of Corinne. 

This. Episode. Is. Dope.

A party bus, a bachelorette party of 20+, a FISH show, and an amazing cast of characters. These are just a few of the variables in a mathematical equation that equals one unforgettable night for Corinne and our beloved bachelorette, and Sami: the new bride-to-be.

In this episode, Coco recounts, one of the most interesting bachelorette party adventures that you’ll care to hear. Did our girl put on a good face and take one for the team or did the nights collection of randos do her in? 

Corinne also finds the time to track down a business that I am quite sure nobody knew existed until the airing of this podcast.

Yes...yes there's more. Our girl meets a smooth talker that emailed her some of his precious artifacts, and that lead our dynamic duo to lend their thoughts about why certain people have an ongoing need to share literally everything with a perfect strangers.

Enjoy this one y’all, I listened to it a bunch.

I was really proud of our girl. She’s a real one.

We have a lil' sumthin' sumthin' for the SWIMmer's today.

In this episode, Corinne solidifies a theory that we’ve all probably had at one time or another: needles are never good once they cross the southern of the border- especially when that border is yours- and that needle is being held by colo-rectal surgeon. Big. Yikes.

I digress.

Our favorite duo gets into a friendly game of:

"you show me yours and I’ll show you mine"

… and yes of course we are talking about: Trash Art.

Don’t waste valuable time looking too deeply into the definition of Trash Art. I'll save you a google search. Trash Art: adj. def: Items placed in dumpsters that Al & Corinne subsequently remove from said dumpster and hang directly on their walls. Al makes trash art and Coco collects trash art. Until this podcast neither of these weirdos knew that the other one did this on an embarrassingly regular basis. *As if there was any question the universe hadn't predestined that these two were going to be fast friends.*

Let's hope the topic of being a "Furry" comes up in the next pod so these two can finally be open about everything.

Yes, there's more!

Corinne has a strange interaction on Bumble (which is saying something), so strange at led executive producer Chris to formulate a theory that Al happily cosigned.

Finally, A SWIMmer has had it up to here with new age, baby names- and needs to vent- prompting Al & Coco to stroll down memory lane recounting the strange names that they’ve encountered.

In a world that is full of very few promises, I can promise you this: You will have a newfound respect for Coco after this episode.

I taught middle school for five years. When I had a really great student that I wanted to go on and on about how wonderful they were, while also writing as little as possible; I would simply write: an absolute pleasure!

I tell you that boring story so that you may better understand what it was like to go back and listen to this episode, it was: an absolute pleasure! 

However, it was not without its difficulty. 

We agreed on the show’s title unanimously, in real-time during the show (which almost never happens) but after going back and listening I feel like there were AT LEAST three other potential show titles: 

“Money is on a different level, so yeah- not”

“In the prime of my age”

“In the best of my financial state”

I understand after reading that, you may panic saying: “Oh my God, we’ve mated ChatGPT with the worlds dumbest human! We’re all doomed.”

But fret not, these are just quotes from one of the world’s dumbest human beings. ChatGPT is unscathed and continuing to help semi-literate, functional alcoholics pass college classes. Silver linings. 

The dating profiles Coco brings for us have brought light into my life ever since and now they are here for you.

Also!

Here for: you… me… all of us SWIMmers in this Olympic-sized pool- we have a new “show” mom (which we will explain)! 

Finally, steady yourself for an EPIC Al Yelp! review you’ll have to hear to believe.

We’re gonna need a bigger bag.

What’s up SWIMmers!? Oh, where do I begin? I mean some might say: "there’s so much stress figuring out where to begin it’s making me nauseous." Don’t worry, that’ll make sense roughly 10 minutes into this episode.

Corinne has flight stories for days; as well as, the full details of her: past, present and future shenanigans. Can a black man use the word shenanigans?

I think he just did.

Also, in this very special episode- Al nails it. (That will make sense about 40 minutes into the episode.) 

Finally, Corrine is receiving what in the mail? From who? The episode ends with a surprise throwback item from Al’s past. 

Let’s focus on the present- you enjoying this chat between friends.

Having a nice smile gives you confidence. To keep her show-stopping smile Corinne has enlisted the help of ConfiDENTAL (super boo). Al is quite confident that the tech-support guy assisting her is interested in more than just her smile.

Al also shed's some light on a possible solution to the frayed relationship between Corinne and her goddaughter that openly hates her.

Our boy nearly falls off his chair when he learns of Corinne ‘s wedding outfit that is sure to get the attention of anyone sitting in the pew with her.

In the day and age where people of fancy themselves sommeliers and alcohol connoisseurs we find a tequila that’s best served... on the roof of a Nissan Sentra?

Lastly, we give advice to a SWIMmer who wants to be an L.A. writer, more specifically, Chris chimes in with some of the best advice for a young writer that we’ve ever heard- all that- and much much more. We’re so glad you're here with us: on My Safe Word Is More.

Remember that meme oh so long ago of Bernie Sanders freezing his ass off at the inauguration wearing mittens? 

Remember how long ago that was? 

Well, Corinne wants to talk about it now.

So we will. 

Trust me, you'll be glad we did because we get into conservations about: will we ever have a single president & running into your ex.

Corinne tells a heartwarming story about helping those less fortunate while speed dating which segues perfectly into one of all of our favorite segments: Are we dating the same guy? 

As if that wasn't enough we get an eyewitness account of the Acrocats! LIVE SHOW. 

Finally, we make a fellow SWIMmer feel just a little bit better about themselves with an email they sent in regarding homeschooling. 

It’s a lot to take in but we know our SWIMmers can handle it. Love y’all.
