You Are So President Taft
Yeah, we are doing some events for trans women and trans men. We're doing one for men where we talk about healthy masculinity. What does it take to be a good man? And we also give people, or I hope we're planning this, hoping to give people we'll be talking about that in a barber show.
Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend

And then we have one for trans women where we talk about what it means to be a good woman in a more progressive way. Cool. Healthy. Are you interested in either of those?
Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend
You Are So President Taft
Yeah, we do like to have parties. We like to watch a lot of movies together and kind of just bond and connect over being weird.
Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend
You Are So President Taft
I think you would be a good addition to the LGBT community. I'm not a certified representative, but I think we could use a little bit of Conan Cause I think I'm the only one in my community that listens.
Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend
You Are So President Taft
And I don't think it's the same. I think there's a lot of work to be done. And I'm not just talking about therapy. But I think in terms of the queer community, I will be playing your podcast while I'm doing my makeup in the morning. And my fiancee, who's also here, will be listening. And you'll be like, what are you talking about?
Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend
You Are So President Taft
Yeah, I think like the James Bond references aren't going. Yeah, Conan. Those are not my fault.
Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend
You Are So President Taft
Hold on, last time that came up in detail, you brought it up. Who brings up Calvin Coolidge? Because I don't think that. Thank you.
Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend
You Are So President Taft
But Coolidge, yeah. Lyndon Johnson, I think, is... If you reference Johnson more, it might be a little bit better.
Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend
You Are So President Taft
Okay. I was thinking about this and the first thing we would go to is there's this event called Girl Nation. It's a lesbian event and it's mostly all lesbian women and some trans men and then like one or two chill guys. So you have to pass that test of being chill and also an ally.
Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend
You Are So President Taft
And once you do that, yeah, I think that's why I'm here to help is maybe I can teach you some slang or some things that will help you blend in and not stand out.
Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend
You Are So President Taft
Sure. My name is Eloise. My pronouns are she, her. I'm calling from Manila in the Philippines. I am kind of like a healer in my community. So I'm a relationship and life coach. And I'm also my country's first openly trans soccer player.
Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend
You Are So President Taft
I think there's some using gay lingo like offhandedly, being very used to it. You don't have to use it all the time. But if you use it like once a day in a podcast, then yeah, you'll be fine. Give me an example. So I think you could say it's giving dot, dot, dot. And then you make a reference at the end of that.
Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend
You Are So President Taft
And you can use that to like when you're like giving someone a compliment or if you want to be passive aggressive, you can use it to give them an insult. But you use a very specific and obscure reference at the end of it. So you can say like, oh, it's giving like season one Love is Blind episode two.
Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend
You Are So President Taft
You don't have to be like analyzing. You can just be like throwing it away. Like, oh yeah, you're totally, you can even reference like, you know, presidential terms. As long as you're specific and you're like throwing it away in a gay way, it's like.
Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend
You Are So President Taft
And I would be like, oh my gosh, slay, okay. Yeah. I don't know what that means.
Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend
You Are So President Taft
No one would know. You're basically a woman right now.
Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend
You Are So President Taft
Oh, you can join a women's soccer training. I coached when I was younger. Yeah, you could become an elite athlete and I can help you.
Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend
You Are So President Taft
Exactly. Yes. That's so true. Thank you. You are really giving that Kyle from whatever math side.
Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend
You Are So President Taft
I'm sorry, Sona. Yeah. I don't know any of the references you just made. I think I'm becoming straight again. Okay. No, I think I'm in trouble because if I bring Conan and you guys make these references, me as a healer, they'd be like, are you a spy?
Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend
You Are So President Taft
I am a big fan, but I am also, you know, I have a reputation to uphold as one of the healers for my gay community. And I don't mean that in a rude way. Maybe I can do your makeup and we will style you.
Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend
You Are So President Taft
When I met my partner who is autistic and I realized, oh, we are the same. I have what you have. But for most of my life, I didn't know that I had that. And I think with autistic people, Conan can be a big hit or sometimes a miss because we have maybe issues of taking people very literally. And so, for example, my whole family, we love watching Conan. We've been watching it since I was 18.
Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend
You Are So President Taft
And we would be around the TV with my mom, my sister, and my brother. And we'd be all enjoying it. And one day, my dad came in the room to kind of see what's going on. And my dad kind of takes people very literally. I don't think he has a good understanding of that context. And we watched the whole episode of your show. And we all loved it.
Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend
You Are So President Taft
And I look at my dad to see what does he think, and he just goes, he's rude. He's really rude.
Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend
You Are So President Taft
Well. Yeah, if he thinks you're rude, how would you, what kind of comedy would you do?
Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend
You Are So President Taft
I think he would think you were courting him.
Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend
You Are So President Taft
It almost didn't finish one. If you can win my father's approval, then you can do something I haven't, so that'd be really cool.
