Andrew Schulz and Akaash Singh explore total relationship freedom through a Patreon clip featuring Westerbros' Haney and Marco. They contrast Love Island UK's real-time voting format with its American counterpart while Marco details his Type 2 diabetes diagnosis triggered by urinary issues, prompting a strict sugar and carb elimination. The discussion highlights how Marco's wife evolved from selfish habits like ordering separate meals to fostering a dynamic where both partners pursue interests without permission, ultimately framing this autonomy as a key to their success and child-rearing.

What's up, everybody?
Welcome to the Patreon episode of Flagrant 2.
It's your boy Sheltie.
We got Akash sing in the building, Alex Media, and we have some special guests today.
If you guys are watching the videos, some of you probably already recognize them, superstars of this podcast world that have been on sabbatical, but we got them back.
We have Haney and Marco of the Westerbros podcast.
Y'all remember a little podcast called Wester Bros where we were reviewing movies and TV shows and then motherfuckers got busy and we had to drop it.
But I figured for Christmas, Merry Christmas, by the way, we bring back the boys and we have a little discussion.
Welcome back, guys.
What's up?
Excited to be here.
Are you?
Okay.
Yeah.
I mean, listen.
I fucking am.
I'm a civilian, so I usually don't set an alarm on a Saturday because I get a fucking show.
My bad for making y'all wait, dude.
I was like, get here at 10.
I think it's 11.30.
We're starting right now.
It is what it is.
Okay.
A couple things I want to get to for you guys.
But I had a little bit...
You brought something up earlier.
Love Island.
UK.
UK.
That's right.
There's a Love Island.
Can't watch the American version.
It's that bad.
A friend of mine hosts that.
Arielle Vandenberg, I believe her name is.
She's like a big social media star.
Yes.
And okay, but I've heard Love Island, UK.
Phenomenal.
It's phenomenal.
I've heard you watch that.
You can't watch The Bachelor.
Whoa.
And I'm a big fan of The Bachelor and Bachelorette.
I'll be fucking with it.
Both.
It gets nuts.
Explain to me what it is.
Like, what is the structure of the show?
The structure is you have guys and girls.
Oh, really?
Right.
Yeah.
Is it a dating show with guys and girls?
They are in, I believe, Spain.
Yeah.
I actually think it's my workout, as we were discussing before.
Okay.
They all live in a house.
Okay.
They have to, they have like all these events, and then at the end, they have to couple up.
Yeah.
And when they couple up.
Can you go like this with your hand for a second?
Yo, I've been in the gym.
I've been tearing it up.
Have you been in the gym?
Have you been putting out some cigars?
Dude, look at me.
No, that shit is a melanoma.
Clean your hands, bro.
It's not clean.
It's blood.
You got a smoker's lung on your hand.
It's mad, you know.
Put it in your pocket notes.
White dress show in England.
Dude, your hand looks like that show.
Let's go.
How did that go?
You texted me last night.
I didn't have any time.
I know.
Apparently he's just sick of your hand.
I'm coming right off.
His fucking hands have been forged in the fucking.
What's your new workout?
I'm shouting out.
What's your new workout?
You know how like fat chicks have like a new diet every three months if they try?
That's Marco with workouts, right?
Like every month or two, I'll see him.
And first we'll be like, oh, yeah, you know, I'm on a, I'm definitely on a keto cleanse, but I'm doing this P90X.
And then you went to yoga for a while.
Then it was just stretching.
Then you told me you bought sets of cones and you were doing getting older, man.
That shit killed me, bro.
Just imagine it.
Imagine if Marco and his family are my Instagram algorithm.
I can see all these guys and then fucking, I'm like, oh, shit, I got to get out there.
But just don't tell me he's never dunked before.
He dunked when he was 38.
That's how you get doing some workout again.
Oh, you can play ball like you used to?
Yeah.
No, my knee's bulletproof.
Bro, I just imagine you in your fancy building, right?
Coming down the elevator with someone else who's like going to do their job that day.
And you just have like 10 cone stacks in your hand.
Medicine balls.
I got the ladder.
The rope ladder.
No, you don't.
The in and out.
I got the parachute that you run with.
Doesn't care.
Oh, my God.
And you got to do it outside.
So, like, all these people.
Yeah, you're not going to parachute in the middle of the end.
Dude, we got to shoot that.
Fun fitness with the parachute and just people running.
I'm ready to go, man.
I'll fucking eat scrap metal and shit out of Tesla right now.
Okay.
All right.
So go.
UK.
Love Island, UK.
Yeah.
So they pair up, they couple up, and then they have like, they slowly get rid of people.
And so you have to make like a, you know, genuine connection.
But who drama ensues?
We, we watch it.
Yeah.
It's just a little bit.
I mean, yeah, that's just a votes.
But like, we vote them off or they vote each other off.
It's voted off.
The people at home.
The audience vote voted off.
So this show is filmed live.
Yeah.
This is the craziest thing I heard about it.
Apparently they're filming the whole week and then they turn the episode around in one day.
Oh, it's happened in real time.
Yeah.
That's crazy.
That's wild.
That's crazy.
I don't even understand how that's possible.
We've been trying to put out this Netflix special for the last fucking three months.
We're still editing it right now.
But they never go anywhere.
That's the magic of it.
They're always in the same fucking situation.
So it's Big Brothered.
It's the same routine.
Yes.
Wow.
Okay.
Are there any people following them with cams or every shot is like on a hidden camera type thing like in Big Brother?
No, they do both.
They mix them both.
They do have some.
People love this fucking show.
I love it.
It is.
People love this show, and I'm just trying to understand what this is.
Honestly, season three had this like romance between Chris and Ken, and that was actually probably the most fulfilling relationship.
A gay relationship?
No, it wasn't gay.
They were just like becoming boys.
Concerns About the Relationship00:13:52
Oh, okay.
And then what happened?
They were just like hysterical together.
And they were just funny guys.
Yeah, it was just more.
Everyone was more into that relationship than anything that was going on.
And can they win Love Island as a couple?
The whole thing is they go on there and they immediately become influencers.
So like they just want to get on the show.
Yeah.
Do five episodes, get a million fucking followers, and then, you know, push fitness tape or whatever they do.
But that's like their have you tried the fitness.
Oh, I'm so glad you asked that because I didn't even think about it.
Why do you think I was late today?
Just shutting your brains out for the fitness thing.
You just wiped right through the fucking toilet, baby.
That solved my problem.
You know, get out of here.
Yeah.
Well, yeah, Marco had a problem.
Slow digestive system.
Yeah.
Right.
Yeah.
It was a big issue.
It was a big issue.
Family issue.
A lot of pasta in the family.
Yeah, when a guy like you said, the thing with the thing, I assume somebody got killed.
You know what's really interesting?
That's how embarrassing this is for you culturally.
Because you can't eat things that you need to eat.
It's terrible.
But so you're even like, there's a thing with the thing.
Most people just be like, yeah, you know, I get constipated.
I eat bread, I get constipated.
You're like, I think my ass is gay.
My ass is a funny jewel.
I can't put ravioli.
Low-hanging Italian joke.
Okay, but what happens?
So you have this constipation.
You get on the fit T. Every other day.
Uh-huh.
And then just take a drink at a night in the morning, clear it out.
And now you can eat pasta the way you're meant to.
No, I don't do that anymore.
I just, I can't.
I just, it.
I'm saying, yo, I can't eat pasta.
Because the problem is, is then the log jams.
I can't eat white bread, yo.
He still eats pasta three times a week, though.
Not three times.
Like, he just doesn't eat it every day.
Chickpea pasta.
No.
It's delicious.
No.
Cheese up.
Cheese up.
That's too much.
Cheese up.
How do you explain this to your family?
It's delicious.
He doesn't.
It's a thing with the thing.
No, you have to explain this to your family.
How would you explain this to your family that you're eating chickpea pasta and that you can't shit?
Well, they known about that.
And when uh-huh.
It's been like a decade-old issue.
You're 50 years old, Mark.
I'm younger than you.
Are you 50?
I think we're the same age.
37?
Yeah.
Okay, good.
We're like a month apart.
All right, fair.
Oh, God.
Okay, anyway, so look, I'm glad we got your shit taken care of.
Everything is good.
Haney, you've been losing weight.
Yeah.
Yo, Haney looking thin, bro.
Yeah, you've been losing a lot of weight.
Yeah.
I'm starting to get concerned.
No, there's a new development.
Infidelity.
As of last week, that's the only reason a man.
That's the only reason a man of your age is getting into shape.
It has to be infidelity.
Either you're cheating or you see the divorce coming from her.
Hey, Marco, give me the parachute.
Your boy can't hang her.
She fed up on my shit, man.
When the time comes, I got to be ready to go.
No, no.
You said there's a new development.
Yeah.
A few months ago, I started just changing up the diet, whatever.
Last week, I went to the urologist because my peeing was weird.
What do you mean?
Right?
So it was like, stop and go traffic.
Yeah, like when I'd go to pee.
What the hell happened?
The last five minutes, this podcast turned 60.
I don't understand.
Yo, I thought it was old man shit, like regular stream, and then it would stop.
I gotta eat chickpea pasta.
What is the garden?
What is the shit that goes like that?
What is the plant?
You got a sprinkler.
No, it's one stream, and then I'll stop and be like, I still gotta go.
And then it's just like, boop, streams.
But he was throwing out feelers like, hey, is this?
I was like, yo, this old man.
I was like, hey, guys, are you seeing a similar thing?
Do you wake up 17 times a night?
I was like, nah, man, that's not normal.
Then I witnessed it one day.
Like, he ran into the bushes to pee, and it was like seven minutes.
I was like, yo, man, you're going to get that checked out.
Oh, my God.
Look at that.
So you're just watching him from the back as he's like furiously shaking his desk, trying to get every last drive out.
He was just standing there with his back to me, but I could feel the defeat in him.
And so I knew he had to get that checked out.
Putting out the feelings to your boy is about anything vulnerable.
The land old sucks, man, right?
Peeing for 19 minutes at a time.
And everyone's just like, yo, what the fuck are you talking about?
So what happens?
So you call the urologist.
I go to the urologist where it's like prostate, some shit like that.
It's not.
He's like, yo, you have type 2 diabetes.
No.
Wow.
Amy.
So all these kind of changes I made to my diet are now like for life.
Like now it's like no choice, go time, got to get in ridiculous shape to get my body to process this shit back.
Oh my God.
Yeah.
Really?
Yeah.
Were you scared?
When they told me about the diabetes?
Yeah.
No, because I spent a couple months kind of changing the diet.
Like I was already on that road.
It was on the path.
You knew there was a problem.
I didn't know it was a problem.
I was just like, yo, it's time to drop some weight.
Like you're getting older.
It's time to get your shit.
But you were never crazy fat.
Yo, but like, I think with the quarantine, I was never crazy fat because I always worked out or at the very least played ball once or twice a week.
Right.
But then with the quarantine, it was just like weren't doing shit.
So I spent a couple months like not working out.
Yeah.
And he just felt fucking miserable.
Right.
So like by the end of the summer, I was like, time to get my shit.
I think what's also scary is you don't have to be crazy fat to get type 2 diabetes.
You could just be like, oh, yeah.
I don't even understand that type 2 diabetes.
It's just diet.
It's just too much.
It's genetic.
It's diet.
Yeah, monster.
It's just diabetes.
Yeah, I could reverse it.
Really?
Well, that's like a challenge.
Yes, now it's a challenge.
Now it's like, it's on.
Let's go.
So what'd you cut out?
Sugar.
Game over.
Game over.
Carbs, like bread.
Game over.
Like rice, no rice.
I don't, I haven't eat rice in since I found out.
Wow, yeah.
So now I thought you lost a little more than that, then.
This was last week.
It was last week.
It was last week.
Oh, okay.
Last week.
I thought it was a few months.
No, no.
I was like, really?
I haven't had only lettuce for three months.
I on my own started changing shit a few months ago, but then last week I found this out.
And I'm just like, guys.
What are the chances that your wife got the doctor to lie to you to get your shit right?
Could be.
Do you think she's like localizing diabetes?
Because you're about to get fined.
Like her husband about to become a beast.
I don't think she's happy about it.
She's not that much.
Loves her sweets.
My wife loves.
Yeah, now she gets more of them because you don't eat it with your fucking diabetic ass.
You can't go Havzies anymore.
Yeah.
Wait, what?
You can't go Havzies.
Yeah, now she gets Holseys.
Yeah, but is she cool with Holseys?
Yeah, she's selfish as shit.
You know that.
I didn't want to say it.
I can't call you why you're selfish.
But now that we talk about it, she won't dominate.
Tell the story.
You dominate the dessert course.
Easy.
Easy.
It's like, oh, we're going to chop that up together.
And she's just got the big thing.
Oh, yeah.
I was like, last night, I'm like, yeah, I got to go to Walgreens.
She was like, yo, can you just pick up some cupcakes?
I'm just like, you know, diabetic.
Also at Walgreens?
No, like there was a spy down there.
She knew there was a spy next to it.
But tell the story about like the making the order of the food or whatever.
This shit killed me, bro.
Oh, man.
So my role in the relationship.
Yeah, let me just clarify.
I can tell you how I'm happy about y'all.
No, They have a great relationship.
Oh, I love it.
It's great.
But in this way, specifically, he uses the selfishness to his advantage.
Yeah.
He can do what.
I've never seen someone with a kid and a wife.
They can do whatever they want anytime they want.
It's true.
Anytime they want, whatever they want.
And it's because she's selfish as shit, and I deal with it.
Like, she like the food story.
She said trying to change her selfishness.
He leans into it and then uses herself.
She's like, be you, and I'm a big game.
Me is wanting to go out and hang out with my friends all the time, still immature like that, right?
So you being you is only worrying about yourself.
It's fine.
And I'll deal with that.
It's fine.
Like, tell the example, though.
So like, have you broken it down to her like that?
She knows.
I tell her all the time.
She's.
You're also someone who doesn't need anyone to sort of care about you.
Yeah, I'm good.
Like, I'm independent.
I don't need extra attention.
Like, just let me be.
You know what I mean?
So she, my role in the relationship is make sure my wife gets fucking fed.
Right?
So whether I'm cooking, ordering, whatever, right?
So one night she comes home and I'm just like, yo, I'm going out.
I'm going to play ball.
I didn't order anything.
Right?
I didn't even say I'm going to play ball.
I just said I didn't order anything.
Yeah.
Right.
I'm stepping out.
She just picks up the phone and orders food.
Like, didn't ask.
She didn't ask what I was doing, how long it was going to be out.
Do you want food?
Should I order for you?
She was just like, I got it for myself.
Well, I'm only ordering for myself.
That was it.
No.
So like the food comes, I'm like, she's like, well, I didn't think you'd be.
I was like, you didn't ask any questions.
You didn't say, when are you going?
I just said I'm stepping out at some point.
She's giving you a heads up.
Restaurant asks you at the end of the order.
Is there anything in the house?
Is there anything else you like?
Not even that.
So the one time that you actually have to order food, you order for one.
Tell the ironing story, too.
That's the best.
The steam.
Oh, man.
Yeah.
Early in our relationship.
This is so good.
This is so good.
I get up.
I got to steam her, steam the work clothes before we go to work.
Well, one morning, she like.
I would get up.
I would do mine.
She'd go, she'd take a shower.
I'd steam my clothes.
I'd steam her outfit, right?
Wow.
Thanks for dude.
I've got to do mine.
Hers is right there.
It's an extra 38 seconds, whatever, right?
Facts.
The one morning she woke up.
She had an early meeting.
I wake up.
Her clothes are steamed.
And my shit is still on the fucking floor.
Wait.
Wait.
What?
Oh, my God.
You couldn't just pick mine up and hang it up and just steam it just like I've done for you.
Just.
But it doesn't even like hit her.
So how do you flip that to your advantage?
Anytime he wants to go anywhere.
I literally call him.
You bring up the shit?
She doesn't have to ask permission for anything.
Anything.
Yeah.
She gets to be herself.
Yeah.
And then he gets to be himself.
I don't be a dick about it.
I'm not like, yo, how could you not steam?
I'm just like, that's you.
I just look at her at the point of the thing.
I'm like, really?
And we just kind of chuckle about it.
She accepts what it is.
She appreciates that.
I acknowledge that how she is because she'll admit it herself.
Like, she's.
She's just a mission.
But it's hilarious.
It's actually mad mature of your wife to be like, yeah, I'm selfish.
Care.
She ain't got a baby, but like I can call him at six o'clock, pregnant wife, and I can be like, yo, you do anything for dinner?
And he can be like bringing his wife to like a hospital appointment and he can be like, I'm just leave you here.
You can get home, right?
And then he'll come just get a hamburger with me.
You got to do Uber?
Absolutely.
But isn't that perfect?
But it works.
You get to be you.
Yeah.
And do exactly what you want to do.
She gets to be her and do exactly what she wants to do.
That's exactly.
Yo, I mean, but look, that's part of the reason why she's, my wife's really successful.
It's part of the reason why she's just super driven, focused on whatever she wants to accomplish.
Yeah.
Is that turned into, has that drive turned into like raising the child?
What do you mean?
Is the child?
Yeah, like is the child the extension of her now?
Like, is the selfishness included?
Oh, inseparable.
Yeah.
Right?
Yeah.
So the child, like, her selfishness isn't only about her now.
Now the selfishness is her and the kid.
Yeah, the kid is quite.
And then you outside of that.
But over quarantine when everything shut down and like we're both home, we're both working.
We're both, you know, responsible for the kid because the kid's home, right?
Like that responsibility really fell on me.
Yeah.
Right.
Because she's just like, yo, I got meetings.
So he just called me a f.
That's just what happened, right?
Like, all right, guys, we're going to take a break for a second from this clip because I got to make sure that you don't look like this guy.
Okay.
See how he let his hair go because he didn't get on it early.
Me over here, I felt it going.
And I said, this is not going to happen.
This is not my destiny.
I'm keeping all the hair on my head.
I am keeping it.
And the way I keep it is with keeps.
It's that simple.
Balding has been cured.
Balding has been cured.
Okay.
All you got to do is you go to go to keeps.com/slash flagrant.
Okay.
You sign up.
They got payment plans for $10 a month.
They started $10 a month.
Okay.
All you got to do, you get a month free.
Matter of fact, if you go right now, limited time.
But keeps, I'm telling you, I've been on it for the last decade.
It is keeping my hair.
If you notice that your hair is going a little bit, you get on it immediately.
All right.
If you notice that you've already started balding, but you want to get some back, that's what happened for me.
I got some back.
You do not have to be bald.
Balding is a choice.
Go get that keeps.
Do it right now at keeps.com/slash flagrant.
Now let's get back to the clip.
If you just go, yo, I got meetings.
Here's how it would go.
The night before, the morning after you're just like, all right, yo, I got like an eight to ten, ten, thirty to one, one to two.
It's never, what's your schedule?
It's, this is when I'm available.
Figure it out.
Okay.
Make sure she's fed.
Like, you know, and then like, oh, fuck.
And then how do you handle that?
What do you say?
You just put up with it.
You're like, that's what it is?
Kind of, yeah.
Yeah.
Right?
It's kind of you're just like, I'm just like, I'll fucking figure it out.
This is fucking like, I like, those are the, this was the first time I actually got annoyed, mad at like the actual like selfishness.
You're just like, yo, this is fucked up.
No, because you can't get your rocks off because I'm getting no benefit.
I can't be like, yo, I watched this kid all day and worked and like looked out for you.
I'm going to hang out.
Can't go nowhere.
So now I got to be like, oh, we're doing this.
All right.
Who Gets to Choose What We Watch00:01:20
So what do you want to watch on this?
Wait, wait, do you get the say in what you watch?
Yeah.
Okay.
Like, I won't watch if she's like, I want to watch your show.
If I don't want to watch it, I won't watch it.
I fucked that up in my relationship, bro.
Something was happening in the beginning where, like, I think my girl, I think she just really wanted things to work out with us in the beginning.
And then she would just be down to watch whatever I wanted.
Yeah.
And I'm a kind of a pleaser in that way.
So, like, I want the person that's watching with me to really be into the program as well.
You're an entertainer.
So, if they're not entertained, it's like, no, well, fuck it.
It's not interesting.
It's boring, right?
And I don't know what happened, but something flipped where I think my girl realized that, like, I want her to be happy too when we watch it.
And it's ruined now, bro.
Like, every time we go to Netflix, my first suggestion, it don't matter what it is.
We didn't want to watch The Bachelor, guys.
We didn't want to like The Bachelor, bro.
We hit it up like it.
British Bake Officer.
It's all about British Bakoff.
I have not seen that one.
You got to get into British Bake Off.
We watched, what's it called the other night?
And I got a little, here's a little hot take: Macaulay Culkin, trash in Home Alone.
