Taste Test: Reese’s And Snickers

Speaker 4 0:04

Slippers unite it's time to play. We bring a spice to your work or your day, confessions, debates, and a product or two. We slip it in just for you. You laugh, you cringe, you'll beg for more with a guilty pleasure.

Speaker 5 0:25

You can welcome, welcome, welcome, everyone. We are back slipping it in with you. I'm Egan.

Speaker 1 0:31

I'm again. Matty here.

Speaker 5 0:33

Hello.

Speaker 1 0:34

Jay here.

Speaker 5 0:35

Hello, hello. Well, slippers, if you heard our last episode, you know we brought up all of this Reese's peanut butter cup controversy where Brad Reese has accused Hershey's of essentially changing the iconic Reese's peanut butter cup recipe. Well, we did the taste test. And let me tell you, it's 100% true. We are on board, Brad. We support you. And as we know, Hershey's has come out and said they have only changed the recipe for shaped peanut butter cups. So for anyone who eats a shaped peanut butter cup, like an egg, a Christmas tree, something of that nature, and think, oh, it doesn't taste like a regular peanut butter cup. Well, it's it doesn't because the recipe has changed. And we also taste tested Snickers. They have done the same thing too. The mini Snickers, the fun size, and regular Snickers all taste the same. But if it's a Christmas tree or an egg, it's different. It's a different recipe. And let me tell you, it's not as good.

Cocoa Prices And Recipe Changes

Speaker 1 1:43

I appreciated your follow-up because you said in the last episode, or we said, okay, bring them. And sure enough, you did bring them. And I was a little I don't know if skeptical, I shouldn't have been skeptical because Hershey's came out and said it. But I thought, would I be able to detect the difference? Probably not, but I did. It was, you know, it's slightly different.

Speaker 5 2:06

Yeah, yeah. Just not quite as good.

Speaker 1 2:08

Not as rich, I guess. Yes. A weird little maybe aftertaste. Yep.

Speaker 2:12

And I just have to add too, my experience is yeah, I was skeptical about it, but then I also noticed that it's not just the flavor, but the texture. I found it different.

Speaker 5 2:24

Yeah.

Speaker 2:24

Um, from the original. It's just like chewiness of this the shape ones. And it was interesting because by themselves, I would just probably enjoy them because I do like combo of peanut butter.

Speaker 5 2:37

Me too.

Speaker 2:37

Um, but then when when taste alone, like right next to it, it was just like, oh, this has no chocolate at all. Yeah, like it's it just felt like it was like no chocolate at all.

Speaker 1 2:49

That's the claim, right? No cocoa isn't it?

Speaker 5 2:51

It's like I think, or much less or something, and then they're using different oils and stuff instead. So yeah, because cocoa prices have increased and gone through the roof.

Speaker 3:01

Yeah.

Speaker 5 3:02

So when you're buying candy for your Easter baskets this year, don't buy the eggs, buy the original.

The $300 Chocolate Experience

Speaker 3:09

Yeah, more you know. Exactly. But if you do want a chocolate experience, yeah, there is a restaurant that I think that we should all go.

Speaker 5 3:17

Oh, okay. What is it?

Speaker 3:19

It's a uh the restaurant um El Cielo. Um it's in DC, New York, and Miami.

Speaker 3 3:25

Oh, okay.

Speaker 3:26

Um, chef Juan Manuel Barrientos. He is the chef on there. Okay. He has a chocolate experience on it. Now really this chocolate experience is $300 worth.

Speaker 5 3:39

Well, it better be $900 between the three of us. A lot of high-end chocolate.

Speaker 3:46

This is what the experience is about warm liquid chocolate.

unknown 3:50

Okay.

Speaker 5 3:54

Oh. I don't think I want that.

Speaker 3:56

Guests are able to. I I they're actually encouraged to touch, smear, taste, lick. Really? Just get a little bit more. Are you in a private room? No, no.

Speaker 1 4:08

There are everybody is like it is sounds like it's a borderlines on like a sexual experience.

Speaker 4:14

I don't know how many of you have seen or experienced uh the spa. Many spas now are bringing chocolate into the mix.

Speaker 5 4:22

I have, yes.

Speaker 4:23

Um, so that is what uh this chef, which is a Michelin-star, like you know, restaurant. It's like so it's not an experience that you're gonna find you know in everybody, uh everywhere else, but this place, he wanted to just bring that in to the experience. And I mean, we watched a video, and this uh man was like, Oh my god, my it feels so good. It was just like he really wasn't doing it.

Speaker 1 4:52

Like he's lathering it up like soap and then licking his hands.

Speaker 5 4:57

Yeah, I'm not sure I'd do it for $300.

Speaker 1 5:00

Do you think it's $300 because of these cocoa prices?

Speaker 5 5:03

Maybe, yeah, because it might be a high-end chocolate. Yeah, yeah. These cocoa prices, see, they're through the roof. Now, I wonder, does this restaurant have like a table side Caesar? Like, I love a table side Caesar. Well, I think it's the chocolate, yeah. I'm questioning what the rest of the menu is because I'm not sure I'm in for the $300 chocolate experience, but I might be in for other items on this.

Speaker 5:27

Well, it's a Colombian cuisine, so it's like a more Latin vibe to it. So I don't know if they will have a Caesar salad with it. And also, if you are wanting a Caesar salad at the point that you're getting the chocolate, you're done with the eating. Like this is a dessert.

Speaker 5 5:44

Oh, this is a dessert. I thought it was just like a fun app.

Speaker 5:48

No, this is just dessert is 450, just so you're not.

Speaker 5 5:54

Well, it better be table side for that.

Speaker 5:56

Honestly, it was one of those things that he was saying that the one of the things that he wants to bring in, and then I don't know if it happened to you before, like like when food brings on memories, yeah, oh yeah, nostalgia type of thing. And not that I would do it, but when I saw this guy playing with the chocolate, it was like it brings you back to like being a child and just playing with food, and you know, you are really in this missioning star restaurant allowed to play with food um for $300. But um, so but he wanted to just bring that in. And then I was like, okay, it's it's this when chocolate can get a little messy.

Speaker 1 6:34

But I feel like they're always trying to find a new experience. So this is for those people that literally, you know, probably have extra income. And they're like, what should we do? Why don't we lick our why don't we lick chocolate off our fingers for $300 and snap a TikTok and put it up and maybe we go viral?

Speaker 6:54

Yeah, I found it interesting. It was it's just chocolate.

Speaker 5 6:58

Yeah.

Speaker 1 6:59

Well, it better be like fancy fans.

Speaker 5 7:02

With these high cocoa prices, it's probably is pricey, especially if you have to get a large bowl of it to like put into your hands.

Speaker 7:10

Yeah, and just like get it.

Speaker 1 7:12

How do you do they clean your hands after you can lick it? I mean to give you a little a wet nap, like you're eating wings.

Burger Bite Wars: CEO Showdowns

Speaker 7:18

They probably give you one of those like warm towels that you get at a airplane. Yeah, yep. Oh, I do love that.

Speaker 5 7:25

Yeah, a warm scented lemon towel. Yeah, I'm in for it. Well, speaking of food, have you seen these burger bite wars?

Speaker 1 7:33

Oh, yeah. Who has it? I'm just the talk of the town.

Speaker 5 7:36

Oh God, I love it. So I was just like, I'm always tracking new items at any restaurant around, like chain restaurants, fast food restaurants, new food items in the store. So I was doing my normal tracking and I came across the McDonald's CEO talking about the Big Arch Burger, which is, I guess, McDonald's new burger. And I'm not even quite sure what's so special about it. But anyway, uh, the McDonald's CEO did a whole like video about it. And he's like, Oh, it's so amazing, it's so great. And he's like dressed very conservatively, kind of in a room that looks like a boardroom or an office or something. And he takes a bite of the big arch burger, and then he's like, Oh my god, it's so amazing. Well, let me tell you, this bite, I don't know that he got any hamburger, it's like maybe a little piece of bun.

Speaker 1 8:32

So apparently they called it a dainty bite.

Speaker 5 8:35

A dainty bite, which I like, I think that's the perfect and the way he looks, he's a little more conservative, so it kind of seems like, yeah, he would be a dainty biter. And so then comes in the Burger King CEO. Now, this guy is in a kitchen, he's got his sleeves rolled up, he's wearing an apron, and he's basically talking about uh the whopper and how amazing it is, and he takes a bite. Now, his bite literally half the whopper's gone. And then he's like, Oh my god, you really need a napkin for this type of bite. So basically trolling McDonald's. Well, yeah, because he took a real bite, which the McDonald's CEO did not want to take.

Speaker 9:15

Yeah. The only thing I was waiting for the McDonald's CEO was to pinky up.

Speaker 5 9:20

Yeah.

Speaker 1 9:22

Well, he's gotten really trolled for it, but uh he also they have gotten $18 million worth of viral press over wow, so it's that whole press. Right, any press is good press. But it is very funny because it's they're also accusing him of like, I don't think this man even knows what's on this new arch thing. And and the bite, you didn't get all the ingredients in that bite. Correct. You got bun and maybe like a dainty piece of meat or something, but like maybe a teeny corner, and then he tries to sell it with like this is so good.

Speaker 10:01

Like, you really did he know he was recorded and he disused.

Speaker 5 10:05

Yes, he was doing it.

Speaker 1 10:06

I think he's intentional, right? Absolutely.

Speaker 5 10:09

I think his intent though was oh, I have to talk after this bite. I don't want to have all this food in my mouth. So I just know from my theater background that like when you have to eat, you're con you're always very like trying to take very teeny little bites or fake bites because you you're trying to do lines. So I feel in his mind, he thought, I'm just trying to get my lines out, I don't have all this food in my mouth. So I get that perspective. But then when Burger King comes in and makes you look like an idiot, and now you've got Wendy's doing it, yeah, and they've done their own videos, so it's like everyone's on the bandwagon.

Speaker 1 10:48

Well, to the point that you made about like what he was trying to accomplish and make sure you could say his lines. The thing that always gets me with this type of stuff is there's probably 50 other people in the room or around or involved in the edit, the final saying go, yep, this is our best take. Like there's nobody that saw that and said, Perhaps should we consider you taking a little bit bigger of a bite? Correct. Or like it might be okay to talk with a little food in your mouth because it's scrumptious, and you that you can sell it and be like, wow, the flavors in my mouth. Like nobody thought, like, or maybe they're just because it was a CEO, they didn't feel like I think felt they had the authority to push back.

Speaker 5 11:36

I agree, but that's what happened. I think it was he's the CEO, he's the big guy. No one dared to say take a bigger bite, or let's just try one take with it and see like how it looks or how it plays out.

Speaker 11:49

For me, this is a little bit of a test of what Burger King has been doing for years behind McDonald's marketing, whatever marketing. You know, I don't know if if you've ever heard them talk about it, but years ago, there was a big interview with the CEO of Burger King. They were asking him like why there's always a Burger King next to a McDonald's.

Speaker 5 12:09

Oh, yes.

Speaker 12:10

And he said that it was a strategic move. They would not invest as much in the marketing side. So they would let McDonald's do their research and the land and the geography. And once they saw McDonald's, that means we need to build a Burger King. Let's just try to find an area there. So what I'm saying is like now, obviously, Burger King saw this situation with the CEOs. Like, this is a moment for us to just come in with a bigger bite.

Speaker 3 12:37

Yes.

Speaker 12:38

Um, and then just proves like we are we're still here.

Speaker 1 12:42

Walgreens does that strategy with CVS. Oh, really? Oh, interesting. I think I in fact at one point with my marketing background. Oh, okay.

Speaker 3 12:52

Well, touche, touche.

Speaker 1 12:55

I had learned that that was like public strategy that they would say our strategy is to be on the opposite corner of every CVS. Okay. Now I could be getting my drugstore's mixed up, but there's a story there.

Speaker 5 13:10

Yeah, there is. I've heard it. I know the story, I've heard it.

Fast-Food Trolls And Viral Marketing

Speaker 1 13:13

And then, JJ, to your point about Burger King coming in, I will say Wendy's does some amazing advertising and promotions. So I love that they also jumped in and they poked fun. They also did a little uh poking fun of they said our frosty machines are always working. Because if you've ever been to a McDonald's and be like, oh, let's get a vanilla swirl, and it's like, oh, our machine's down. Oh, is it constantly? So they took it to another level.

Speaker 5 13:46

Well, I also recently saw on TikTok people have gone back to like McDonald's old promotional videos and found a video of the same McDonald's CEO doing a bite of a chicken sandwich, and basically it looks like he spits it out in his napkin.

Speaker 1 14:04

I've seen this. Yes, there's they haven't proven it, but it does clearly look. I mean, it looks like he's pinching the napkin.

Speaker 5 14:11

It does.

Speaker 1 14:12

So there's like some chicken being spit out. So I think he apparently doesn't like their sandwiches.

Speaker 5 14:19

I was just gonna say that. I don't think the McDonald's CEO likes the food at McDonald's.

Speaker 1 14:23

They need a different spokesperson.

Speaker 5 14:25

Yeah, they do. And I want to see, I'm looking for a video of him with a shamrock shake. Because you know I love my shamrock shakes. It'll be like a little yeah, it'll be like a baby sip. Like, okay, I'm done with you, CEO.

Speaker 1 14:38

You need to like the food that you actually should do it now as like uh, well, here's how I drink my shake. Yes. Right, right.

Speaker 5 14:48

Call us, McDonald's. We've got the idea.

Speaker 1 14:51

Put me in the room.

Speaker 14:52

Yeah, 100%.

Speaker 5 14:54

We won't let the CEO put out dainty bites anymore.

Speaker 14:57

No, I do like the word dainty though. Yeah. You do? Yeah. It's like it feels like that's why I was expecting the pinky up.

Speaker 5 15:05

Mm-hmm. Yeah. Well, it is kind of like, you know, when you have some people, you have friends or family members are like, oh, let me just have one bite. And then literally, like half your sandwich, half your candy bar, half of whatever you're eating is gone.

Speaker 1 15:19

You're like, that's yeah, your average regular bite.

Speaker 5 15:22

Yeah, it's like so half my sandwich. This dainty bite business, especially from a food CEO, is kind of sketch. Like, you should know. Like, you need to take a proper bite, yeah.

Speaker 1 15:32

Cool on bite. It's funny to me though, how like things like that like catch on, and then everybody, to your point, there are several other smaller burger chains that have jumped on board, and even some like Popeyes, which isn't a burger thing, has done so. They're either like doing ads or engaging in the conversation, and then then everyone else makes their own little videos, like, oh, watch me eat a little, you know, like so. It just it just takes on this entire life, which I I do kind of enjoy watching it unfold.

Speaker 5 16:04

Well, yeah, maybe we're gonna have to do an Archburger bite.

Speaker 16:09

We should do tiny bites, dainty bites. Uh there's this people, Megan mentioned TikTok, and these should be YouTube before like people just go into with like hours and hours, they're just eating in front of the camera. Oh, really? Millions follow them. And there's like I always find that so weird. So probably going back to the CEO, he went just wanted to be a little dainty because I mean I don't know how many more bites, how many more takes this is going to take? Yeah, um, but yeah, there's people out there that they're just like eating, yeah. Like, and sometimes it's like a crab boil, like all the like random stuff, and I'm like, do really people like watch this? Like, what is like they're like fingers?

Speaker 1 16:57

I'm like if you are a listener and you watch people eat food on TikTok and YouTube as like a hobby and something to pass at a time. Can you give us a ring? I'd like to talk to you about why you find that so entertaining to watch somebody else eat food.

Speaker 17:15

I would love it. I think it's the equivalent of the ASMR.

Speaker 5 17:19

Oh, I can see that.

Speaker 17:21

But it's just like people want to watch other people eat.

Speaker 2 17:27

Well, but when you say that, like why? Yeah, it's crazy.

Speaker 1 17:32

Like cooking. Cook is one thing. I would watch somebody maybe cook. Yeah. Eat a full on case. Maybe they and I'm sure there's some a mix of eating and ASMR, right? They probably are like a like a buttery crab leg, like, or watch me eat this liver.

Speaker 17:50

It goes back to yeah, it will it goes back to like remember one of my pullouts was people like chewing out loud. Can you imagine chewing out loud?

Speaker 1 17:59

Like, I don't know, and subscribing to that channel.

Speaker 18:02

Yes, like I wanna wait. I I it's like it's my favorite show on no no no no. I want to watch this lady eat some like I don't know, a roadkill. I don't know, something like that.

Speaker 1 18:12

Oh yeah, roadkill. There are people that do that, you know.

Speaker 18:17

A roadkill? Like, yeah, like why would you like there's no meat anymore there?

Mukbangs, ASMR, And Watching People Eat

Speaker 1 18:24

I'll break it down in a couple ways because in Michigan, actually, it's it's different in different states, but in Michigan, if you're if you hit a deer with your car with your car and kill it, you can you I guess it you that's a prerequisite. It has to die. Then you can take it home and process the meat if you want.

Speaker 18:45

So what if if it's alive? Well then you just let it die.

Speaker 1 18:49

Unfortunately, I mean uh they'll stamper away, or if they're yeah, I don't know what like I think you could kill it if it was how they just with a gun.

Speaker 5 19:02

You shouldn't have to go. Will you drive around with a gun? A lot of people in Michigan do well.

Speaker 19:06

But if I were if I if that were be me, I don't know.

Speaker 5 19:10

Well, you know someone with a gun, you could give them a call.

Speaker 1 19:12

But by then, I don't know what I don't okay. This is what not what I was gonna talk about, but I'm just saying so you can process the meat, and you obviously, if you damaged the part that you hit or damaged, you would avoid. Yeah, but that's one thing, right? Yeah, but there are people out there, a community, they're they're called roadkill, what were they called? Roadkill lovers. Really? Roadkill lovers.

Speaker 2 19:41

Is that true? Are you wrong?

Speaker 1 19:43

No, it is true. Okay, and they just can you fact check it, please?

Speaker 5 19:47

I feel like it's no, it is true.

Speaker 1 19:49

Okay, it is true. All right, and they it's oh sorry, roadkill cuisine lovers, cuisine lovers, okay, okay, okay, and they are monitoring like police scanners. Oh, really? Yes, and um social media for people that like oh, kind of to your point. Oh, I just hit this deer and like it's still alive, or I I felt awful. I was driving down 696 or whatever, and they go out and try to scoop it up while it's still well edible, yes, edible.

Speaker 5 20:24

It can't just sit there for days, it's on edible then.

Speaker 1 20:28

Yeah, yeah. But I mean, you're making a judgment, you gotta get there fast.

Speaker 5 20:34

It's a fresh, it's a fresh kill.

Speaker 2 20:35

You gotta be first and you gotta be fast.

Speaker 5 20:37

Oh, you think there's a lot coming for them.

Speaker 20:39

So there is you bringing in, and I'm it's we're still in Michigan, so we're bringing you bring in a deer that you just hid to the butcher.

Speaker 1 20:47

You can, or you can do it at your home.

Speaker 20:50

I have no idea how to even start.

Speaker 1 20:52

Not you, well, then you wouldn't.

Speaker 5 20:55

Are you considering it, JJ? You're gonna start eating roadkill?

Speaker 20:58

No.

Speaker 2 20:59

Okay, well, you should start small with a squirrel. Because squirrels are popular. Squirrels, rabbits, deer.

Speaker 21:07

Oh my god, not my rabbit.

Speaker 5 21:09

I don't like game.

Speaker 21:11

What do you mean game?

Speaker 5 21:12

That's what they call game meat.

Speaker 21:13

Oh, really? Yeah.

Speaker 1 21:14

Well, game is well, like they're animals. Yeah. Live or dead, you could call them game.

Speaker 21:21

Like game animals?

Speaker 1 21:23

Well, like game.

Speaker 21:24

Like the hunger games.

unknown 21:25

No.

Speaker 1 21:26

They say like game meat.

Speaker 21:28

Game meat. Because it's like a game.

Speaker 1 21:31

Game can no. Game can mean two things. Game as in like a board game, or game as in animals. Yeah, you're gonna have to do following because of the hunting. No.

Speaker 21:43

I don't know why they're just because they're called game. I think that there's gotta be some like connection between hunting and it's a hunting game.

Speaker 1 21:51

Okay.

Speaker 21:52

Well, I think that's that's why I thought about Hunger Games. Well, we're checking it out.

Speaker 5 21:56

No, I think that's game meat is named for being. Wild, free-ranging animals, such as deer, elk, or rabbit. They are hunted for sport, pleasure, or food.

Speaker 22:08

It's a sport.

Speaker 5 22:10

Well, yeah. Yeah. This meat, which is often called gamey, has a stronger, more intense flavor compared to domesticated livestock due to a diet of wild, varied foliage and their higher physical activity.

Speaker 1 22:23

Okay. That is true. A lot of times people will eat something and be like, this tastes gamey. Yes. Have you heard that before? Never. Yes.

Speaker 5 22:29

And I've had gamey food and meat before. I don't, yeah. I'm not a fan.

Speaker 1 22:33

So my dad was a hunter. Still is. He still hunts. And he would process his own deer, JJ. So there was it was sometimes like a slaughterhouse around outside.

Speaker 5 22:46

Oh, he did it himself.

Roadkill Cuisine And Game Meat

Speaker 1 22:48

He did, but he would also have hunting camps. So there would be like if four people or something got deer, you've got all these deer hanging up by their hind, you know, it was something, but and he would process as he got older, he would have a butcher do it. But a butcher could do it, or if you're skilled, and I'm sensing that some of these road quill roadkill cuisine lovers are probably started out and now much like someone that does sourdough, they've gotten good at it. And they they can skin it and cut it. There's um roadkill cookbook, and there is also in West Virginia, there is a roadkill um festival, and and so people bring in their roadkills to that fest?

Speaker 5 23:38

Well, probably it's a process, so it'll be like a roadkill, like so they're serving um possum that they hit they've made into a steak, or like here it is.

Speaker 1 23:50

It's they okay, so this festival is called Autumn Harvest Festival, it's in Marlington, West Virginia. It got kicked off in 1991.

Speaker 3 24:01

Oh, wow.

Speaker 1 24:01

Some of the dishes that have appeared there before are teriyaki marinated bear. Now, remember, did you like that?

Speaker 5 24:11

Well, I love a teriyaki.

Speaker 1 24:13

You must have been driving.

Speaker 5 24:15

And I've never imagined a bear. Well, yeah, the teriyaki bite. teriyaki and then bear, like, wow, someone hit a bear. Yeah, that really messed up their car.

Speaker 1 24:28

Could have been a cub.

Speaker 5 24:30

Oh, I don't want the bear cub.

Speaker 1 24:32

Oh, but you do love teriyaki, so you know, pros and cons. There's squirrel gravy.

Speaker 5 24:38

Oh, that's have you ever tried squirrel? No.

Speaker 1 24:41

You no? I my dad probably had me eat squirrel. I don't know. No. What's the what if what would you say is the worst thing you've ever put in your mouth? Crocodile, maybe.

Speaker 5 24:52

Oh, really? I don't think I've had crocodile.

Speaker 1 24:54

I don't know. I don't go to the city.

Speaker 24:55

They had like crocodile burgers down in Florida once. I tried that, yeah.

Speaker 1 25:01

Gross. Well, and we should talk about some of the stuff people will eat. But I want to just say there was possum stew.

Speaker 2 25:08

Yeah. That sounds good.

Speaker 1 25:11

Can you imagine hitting a possum and seeing dinner? You're like, I'm stewed, turn on the oven, honey. I've got a possum I'm bringing home. No, no, no, not for me. Not for you. Okay. Well, I also will put a call out since we're asking for um people to give us a ring. If you are a roadkill cuisine lover.

Speaker 5 25:36

Oh, I would like to hear from you.

Speaker 1 25:37

We would like to taste your products.

Speaker 5 25:40

Oh, no, no. Oh, sorry. I'm not tasting.

Speaker 2 25:44

JJ and Maddie will taste watch. I don't think I said.

Speaker 25:48

I kind of feel that we'll be surprised of how many of our friends or people that knows us might have done it. JJ, you think?

Speaker 5 25:56

You think I don't. We have some sketchy friends. I don't think any of them have picked up rokill and processed it.

Speaker 1 26:04

I think of one friend that might have. But I wasn't. Really?

Speaker 5 26:07

What's that name?

Speaker 1 26:08

I can't say that. I want to know that name.

Speaker 5 26:12

Well, I want names. Name them. Name them.

Speaker 1 26:16

I'm just saying, just careful if you're having uh if you're accepting an invite to a certain type of party. Oh my god.

Speaker 2 26:27

Matty.

Speaker 4 26:28

Just uh move on.

Speaker 1 26:30

Yeah.

Speaker 4 26:31

Okay.

Speaker 1 26:31

All right. So what awful things. Awful as an OFFAL. How about we go there?

Speaker 5 26:38

Because we just talked about I don't know offal what offal is.

Speaker 26:41

No. Like awful. Like, oh, that's awful.

Speaker 5 26:44

No, he said O F F A L.

Speaker 1 26:46

But it's pronounced the same, and you will probably it'll probably be similar to what you just did with well, game and gaming and gamer. Like this is awful and awful. It's it's awful A W F U L and offal O F F A L, which is the act of eating internal organs. That's a no. That's a no for me.

Speaker 2 27:11

Yep.

Speaker 1 27:12

JJ asked me earlier, like humans, and I'm like, no, that would be cannibalism. But this is when you do it for animals.

Speaker 27:23

I have a story for that.

Speaker 1 27:25

Okay, well then let's let's hear it. I I I can go.

Speaker 27:29

I want to hear your story. Growing up, my dad used to eat, and I remember my mom having that awful face of like I have to cook this for your dad. Bowl testicles in a weekly basis. Bull bull, like B-U-L-L testicles. They were massive. I remember seeing them on the fridge every time. Where does one even buy it? At the butcher.

Speaker 5 27:53

At the butcher, yeah. You can get them. They're like a delicacy.

Speaker 1 27:58

Isn't there a name for those?

Speaker 28:00

That's what my dad used to say. Megan corrected me when we were in pre-prod. He my dad's story always to us growing up was that that bull testicles will give him the energy that he wanted to keep up with us. And because it's a good boost for testosterone.

Speaker 5 28:17

Yeah, and I looked it up. And eating testicles of a bull or other animal does not boost your testosterone.

Speaker 28:24

That kind of speaks to like sometimes some parents will tell you a story and you just believe it.

Speaker 5 28:29

Yeah.

Speaker 28:29

But so he will eat that and he will also eat um cow's tongue.

Speaker 1 28:34

Oh, gross. You know, I just don't know.

Speaker 28:37

Like, why would somebody even suggest it and be like, so imagine you like growing up five, six years old, and you open the fridge, you see some testicles the size of like almost like a bowling ball. It's like they're big, and then right next to it, there's like tongue. You don't know if it's cow, but you're like, Mom, should we talk about something? Like there's something going on that's gross. Was there a road kill?

Speaker 1 29:02

Oh god. Oh, and she snapped those balls right out.

Speaker 2 29:06

I got the nuts the balls.

Speaker 1 29:09

Honey, pull over right, pull over. I've got my pocket knife. Disgusting.

Speaker 29:16

Yeah, so I mean, I'm not surprised that there is such a thing as an awful lover because my dad used to eat that and he would eat intestines and kidneys.

Speaker 1 29:25

You got some and didn't know it, like they ground it up in some of your foods.

Speaker 29:28

I don't think my mom will do that for us.

Speaker 5 29:31

So you don't think like when we were growing up, it was like one meal was made. Not for my mom.

Speaker 29:35

No.

Speaker 5 29:35

You had multiple meals.

Speaker 1 29:37

Yeah, you either ate it or you went to bed hungry. And you don't we remember? You can sit here all night. Yeah. You're not until you finish your broccoli, you are not to get up from the table.

Speaker 29:50

My mom would announce this that pot is for your dad. Nobody's touching it. Well, it sounds like nobody was interested in that. No, actually. Nobody knows. We knew we saw that. Imagine you see the in the fridge and you're like, I don't even want to touch that.

Speaker 3 30:04

No.

Speaker 30:05

Um, so we would just eat, and we usually just eat like separate courses through in our meal. So we knew exactly what was coming in and out. I don't know, Matty, if you I this has completely popped on my head. Like, do you remember when I moved to the States for the first time and I would eat all my meals as a course, and I would eat my French fries first? Yes, and then my burger, and then I'd move into the next.

Speaker 1 30:29

It kind of would drive me crazy. I'm like, no, why don't you go back and forth? And you're like, no, I like to eat all my potatoes first, then all of this, and then you know we got Megan over here who doesn't want any of the food to touch or before.

Speaker 5 30:42

Well, and I I also like I do a taste of everything first, and then I do your round first, and then I go back and just finish one thing, and then I go to my other stuff.

Offal Talk: From Tongue To Sweetbreads

Speaker 1 30:53

And what do I do, JJ? Mix it up. Like, what do I do for my last bite? Oh, I do so I go around the the plate and I have identified what my favorite part of that meal is, and I intentionally make sure that that's the last bite.

Speaker 5 31:12

Uh that's kind of what I do too. Yeah.

Speaker 1 31:14

Oh, that's not what you said.

Speaker 5 31:15

Well, I don't do a first round. I I and I do a first round of everything, and then I eat the worst, the thing I hate the most first, and then I save whatever I like best to eat at the end.

Speaker 1 31:26

And sometimes I wouldn't make a point of it, but JJ goes, I see what you're doing over here. It seems like you must like the burger the best.

Speaker 31:34

Yeah, that happened a lot, but yeah, that's awful lovers, huh?

Speaker 1 31:38

Well, and it's also entails, which I what whatever. So that is also it's more of like the digestive system parts. So we're getting into stomach, liver, kidneys, pancreas. My dad, was that uh spleen? I uh spleen. How can you eat a spleen? I don't know.

Speaker 31:56

My dad will eat the heart of the turkey.

Speaker 5 31:59

I can't this I can't with this discussion.

Speaker 1 32:02

Have you had chitterlings? Uh I don't even know what I think you can get those at um oh, I was gonna say crate and barrel. No, what's the what's the that's not it? What's the what's the yeah?

Speaker 2 32:15

You're gonna cracker barrel. Cracker barrel. Cracker barrel barrel.

Speaker 1 32:27

You can get chitterlings and crate and barrel. Chitterlings are pig and intestines.

Speaker 5 32:34

Is that every cracker barrel? Because I don't think they're all selling that.

Speaker 1 32:38

Well, I don't know.

Speaker 5 32:38

But okay, wow.

Speaker 1 32:40

But they give it this name, like chitterling sounds like, oh, that's cute. Just like, you know, what did I say the balls were called? Did I s did I come back to that?

Speaker 32:51

No.

Speaker 1 32:52

Um it's uh they've got a cute little sweet bread.

Speaker 5 32:57

Oh, yeah. I knew sweetbreads. They're called sweet bread, and it's like for the balls, like testicles.

Speaker 1 33:02

Yeah.

Speaker 5 33:02

When you go to French French restaurants lots of times, you never get sweet.

Speaker 1 33:06

Or Rocky Mount Mountain Oysters is another term.

Speaker 5 33:09

Yeah, and it's like I've heard them both.

Speaker 1 33:11

We're eating testicles, folks.

Speaker 33:12

Put testicles on the if they give me that on the menu, I will order it because I would not know.

Speaker 1 33:16

Right. That's my point. You'd get oh, I like sweet bread.

Speaker 5 33:19

Yeah, yeah. No, I learned that years ago.

Speaker 1 33:23

No, yeah, truly awful.

Speaker 5 33:26

I can't. This conversation is too much for me.

Speaker 1 33:30

Really? Yes, all right, it is so you want to trans?

Speaker 5 33:33

I want to talk about something I'm obsessed with, which is well, this is what I'm not obsessed with this. Just so you know.

Speaker 2 33:41

It's so disgusting, and you're well, it's not an obsession of mine.

Speaker 1 33:46

But I I don't want to do you know the last time I talked about um when I was talking about the ducks and the jeeps, and you're like, that's all I can see now. I hope now you're gonna be driving down the road and you're gonna be like, oh, fresh possum alert, fresh possum.

Speaker 5 34:03

No, no, I can't.

Speaker 1 34:05

You will.

Speaker 5 34:06

Oh now you want to get out all this disgusting. Clean your palate food talk, and let's talk about beautiful things. Okay, like John F. Kennedy Jr. He was a handsome man.

Speaker 34:19

He was a handsome man, and the actor that portrays him on this show in Hulu. Yes, oh Chef's kiss Paul Kelly or Paul Kelly.

Speaker 1 34:27

They did a good job casting. I haven't watched the show, but they do look like them.

Speaker 5 34:31

The show is amazing. So I advocate for everyone watch Love Story, JFK Jr. and Carolyn Bessette on Hulu. It's amazing. It's really, really good. But I do want to put a little like PSA out there in support of the Kennedys, is that no one intimately involved with JFK Jr. or Carolyn Bessette was involved in the production. This is truly just a Ryan Murphy. That's a typical Ryan Murphy. But like the Kennedy family, uh, Jack Schlossberg, who is Carolyn Kennedy, the daughter of JFK and Jackie O.

unknown 35:14

Wow.

Speaker 5 35:14

JFK Jr.'s JFK Jr.'s sister. Her son, Jack Schlossberg, is 33. He's come out and said this is pure fiction. He's challenged Ryan Murphy to actually take some of the proceeds that he's made to like support some of the causes that John F. Kennedy Jr. fought for because he's like, you're making all this money off of like our family's story. And it's pure fiction.

Speaker 1 35:39

That makes me not want to watch it. I've heard great things about it, but I until you just said that, I thought it was gonna play to their like real story. And I don't know that I like Ryan taking liberties like this.

Speaker 5 35:51

Well, it does are the real story. I mean, there were John of Kennedy Jr. was followed by the press kind of like Princess Diana for everything. Like, and he was notorious for being like in his mind a man of the people. Got it. Wasn't he? Gotta meet him.

Speaker 36:07

Wasn't he like known as the uh America's Prince?

Speaker 5 36:10

Yes. Yeah. And the press trolled him forever. And he was constantly running around New York City with his shirt off, playing football in the park, rollerblading around town. So he was kind of also like living his life very openly and getting fouled. And there was famously this huge fight that Carolyn Bessette and JFK Jr. had in Central Park. I mean, so some stuff is very like you have pictures.

Speaker 36:36

So the fight is on the show.

Speaker 5 36:37

Oh, yeah. I mean, it was, I mean, it was like a five-page spread in like page six or the New York Post when it came out. I mean, so like there is like you do know a timeline, and you do know they broke up and got back together a lot. So all of that, I mean, there is truth to the general.

Speaker 1 36:54

There's tent pole, truths.

JFK Jr., Fiction, And 90s Nostalgia

Speaker 5 36:56

Yeah, but obviously no one knows the private conversations they had or the private conversations Jackie O'Kennedy O'Nassis had with John F. Kennedy Jr. about Carolyn Bessette or Daryl Hannah or any of that. So and Daryl Hannah's also come out and said she's totally upset with this show, and that it does not depict her relationship or have any truth to it, and that she's made to look horrible and she's had horrible uh issues since this show came out.

Speaker 1 37:26

Oh okay, that's right.

Speaker 5 37:27

So but what the show has, besides it just being a great show and like treated as fiction, I do want to say is there's all sorts of 90s nostalgia happening right now, like fashion's taking a big kind of 90s turn as far as what's in and out. And Carolyn Bessette Kennedy had amazing, amazing fashion sense. And when you watch it, it is truly like she was the queen of quiet luxury before quiet luxury was even a term used by anyone. Her styles, the pictures of her around town, what she wore are still classic, would look good.

Speaker 38:08

Can you explain to me what quiet luxury is?

Speaker 5 38:11

Quiet luxury just means like everything you're wearing looks like is expensive and high-end and just put together and like perfect, okay, and also a little bit effortless.

Speaker 38:22

Okay.

Speaker 5 38:23

And that's definitely how she looked. Like she could make a black turtleneck or just a plain white dress shirt and jeans and sunglasses look like a complete lifestyle fashion icon moment. And she's just walking down the street of New York. So, because of that, and because of 90s fashion being so popular right now, I have curated, or we've curated all of us together, a chic little collection on our Link Tree inspired by Carolyn Bessette.

Speaker 1 38:56

I love it that you did this.

Speaker 5 38:57

Her most iconic staple and famous looks. So some of the things that she wore or used are still being uh sold today, and because they're so classic, like her perfect shade of off-red lipstick, her hair products. She was known to wear a Levi's 517 jean. They're still sold today.

Speaker 3 39:23

Wow.

Speaker 5 39:23

Her sunglasses, which you might notice if you're watching, people are wearing these smaller 90s sunglasses a lot now. Uh, Quinn's just came out with like a replica pair of the sunglasses that Carolyn Bessette Kennedy used to wear. So we've curated all of this. It's on our Linktree. So you can go there and you can just click and shop and buy.

Speaker 2 39:44

Love it.

Speaker 5 39:44

So you don't have to search around. There's been, I've looked through tons of different articles about the products she used, the clothes she wore. And instead of having to look and search around the internet, you can just go to our Linktree and it's all there.

Speaker 39:57

It's perfect. I love that so much.

Speaker 1 39:59

Are you going to have your wardrobe influenced by some of her fashion?

Speaker 5 40:04

Or do you feel like I think I am that vibe? No, I think I am gonna buy the Levi's, I'm gonna buy the lipstick and the hair products, and I'm gonna buy the sunglasses for sure.

Speaker 1 40:16

Wow.

Speaker 5 40:17

Yeah.

Speaker 1 40:17

Okay. Well, then maybe we'll have a return product review from you.

Speaker 5 40:22

Well, yeah, potentially. The other thing is, and this is something I I ask. This is I'm asking for all the slippers. I have been searching high and low for a while for a perfect white dress shirt, and I keep trying different ones, and I haven't found one that's perfect yet.

Speaker 1 40:37

So if you have one, you know, Sharon Stone rocked a white dress shirt at the Academy Awards once and tied it in a knot. It was the Gap. And it was the 90s.

Speaker 5 40:47

There you go. So maybe the Gap.

Speaker 1 40:48

It's a full circle.

Speaker 5 40:50

Full circle. And I have one last thing I need to say. Going back to Jack Schlossberg, he is now running to be uh New York state representative in Congress. Oh, so he's in the primary running as a Democrat. So anyone in New York, go vote for Jack Schlossberg in the primaries.

Speaker 41:07

Oh, awesome. Thank you, Megan.

Speaker 5 41:09

Yes. Well, it will be good to have a Kennedy back in DC. Oh yeah. I do like the Kennedys. Well, I get there is a Kennedy in DC, but I'm looking for another one. I like most of the Kennedy movies.

Speaker 41:22

And with that, I think it's time for some slip it in simple answers.

Speaker 5 41:25

Oh, yes, absolutely.

Speaker 41:26

I'm gonna start with mine. Okay. Um, this week I went back to the pool. I used to be a swimmer when I grew up and uh when I was in high school, and I've learned my lessons with the running. So no more running for cardio, but uh it's much easier on the joints. And I it was like one of those things uh that I when I got myself in the pool and like my whole like swimming gear, I was like, oh, it just feels so good to be back in the pool and swimming. And as you know, we I love to be in the water.

Speaker 5 42:03

I do too.

Speaker 1 42:04

Um so do you do have you done any of the water aerobics classes?

Speaker 42:08

No, I'm not gonna do that.

Speaker 1 42:09

You're not there yet?

Speaker 42:10

I'm just on the laps. Doing laps.

Speaker 1 42:12

You okay, I'm because you are a good swimmer.

Speaker 42:14

Yeah, I did 25 laps.

Speaker 1 42:16

I mean I've done one lap before, and I'm like, this is a lot of work. Yeah. So what's your stroke that you do?

Speaker 42:22

I just do freestyles when I'm trying and when I'm doing cardio. Or when you're training. No, I mean, when I'm doing training when I'm like at the gym, I I use it as a cardio. I time myself for 30 minutes.

Speaker 1 42:32

I go in and do you do the whole thing where your face is in the water and you go to the right? I have to because otherwise you get tired. Breathing part. No, your breathing is.

Speaker 5 42:42

I don't like my face in the water. That's why that's why I've always backstroke's my favorite.

Speaker 2 42:48

Oh my God, I can't. I have never seen you backstroke.

Speaker 5 42:53

I backstroke constantly. You're constantly backstroking where backstroke or I do um Where are you backstroking? In a pool.

Speaker 2 43:01

I have a pool and you've never backstroked in it. Because I'm usually rafting it. Well, that's my point. You're rafting in it. You're not backstroking it.

Speaker 5 43:11

But if I'm gonna stroke, I'm backstroking.

Speaker 1 43:14

Oh her style of swimming, rafting. Rafting.

Speaker 2 43:18

And on the raft, her hands are going back like this to move her into the deep end. That's her backstroke.

Speaker 43:24

So it was like good, I feel good, and I my knee was were not hurt. I love it. Uh while doing it.

Carolyn Bessette Style And Our Linktree

Speaker 1 43:29

Are you officially no longer a runner? I'm no longer a runner.

Speaker 5 43:33

Oh, wow, that run in Puerto Rico took you out forever.

Speaker 1 43:37

Yeah, I mean, yeah, it's just I packed it up a while ago. It is good exercise cardio, but it's a lot on your knee.

Speaker 43:45

It's a lot on your body stuff. Yeah, and I did some research and um Shadji BD said, just go back to swimming. Yeah, swimming is like that.

Speaker 5 43:52

I love it.

Speaker 43:53

And swimming is actually one of the three um exercises that are full on complete exercises. Exercises. So I think that's true.

Speaker 1 44:02

That makes sense. Rowing is one, isn't it?

Speaker 44:03

Yeah. And tennis. Oh, wow.

Speaker 2 44:06

Tennises.

Speaker 1 44:07

Oh, perfect.

Speaker 44:07

I'm in the city. Oh, well, let's get back to the part.

Speaker 3 44:10

I'm in it.

Speaker 44:11

Summer is around right around the corner. My pullout is kind of a follow-up of a pull-out that Matty did. Okay. And this is like episode like five or six. Matty talked about blinkers. And specifically to like when we are in a structure parking and you're just going back and forth, or you are in a lane that you're clearly going to the right or clearly going to the left, and you're doing the blinking.

Speaker 1 44:38

Well, can I say on that? Yeah. Uh what he says when he says a barking structure. It's happened to me on more on one occasion. There is one way up the structure and one way down. You do not need to signal when you are making a turn in a parking lot. No, not at all. I never do. Never. Thank you.

Speaker 44:55

So my pull out is a blinker on the highway for no reason. Like, and and I feel I feel that that driver thought, oh, I think I should go to the left. Let me put the blinker on. It never went to the left. And let and and just kept going in the lane that they were in and they forgot about the blinker.

Speaker 1 45:21

But have you ever done that?

Speaker 45:23

I've done it, but my car gives me a signal if my blinkers go too long. Yeah. So I'm sure that if my car that is very old gives me a signal that the blinker is way too long, theirs is as well. Yeah. So I'm just get confused because when I'm the one behind it, I'm like, are you coming in? Or should I just try to, you know, speed up and go, you know, around you? Like it's just blinker etiquette, people. Blinker etiquette. It's a it's another branch of your blinking.

Speaker 1 45:55

Yes.

Speaker 45:56

And I think that blinking, we can't.

Speaker 1 45:58

It's all under the umbrella of blinker etiquette. That's because here's what I hate. You put your left blinker on and suddenly you're getting in the right lane.

Speaker 2 46:06

I'm like, are you fucking kidding me? Are you kidding me? Like, really? Yeah. Get off the road.

Speaker 46:14

Blink the F off.

Speaker 2 46:15

Yes. Get out.

Speaker 46:17

You get out. Anyway, clearly that was a pull-up.

Speaker 5 46:22

Uh, yes, I love it. Well, I'll go with my slip it in. And I learned this week on a podcast a new word.

Speaker 1 46:31

Oh, JJ had a new word last I did one of these last episodes.

Speaker 5 46:35

Himbo is my new word. Himbo. It is an unintelligent man.

Speaker 1 46:40

Oh. Just well, why don't you just call it dumb man?

Speaker 5 46:44

Well, I think one, that's two words.

Speaker 1 46:47

Can we use the word dumb?

Speaker 46:48

I don't think that we can.

Speaker 1 46:49

Well, that's it's just an unintelligent man. That's it.

Speaker 5 46:53

Yeah.

Speaker 1 46:53

I thought it was Himbo. Isn't uh wasn't it an attractive? Unintelligent man?

Speaker 5 46:59

I think it kind of goes with that, but it's just an unintelligent man.

unknown 47:03

Oh.

Speaker 47:04

I'm gonna use it.

Speaker 5 47:05

It was used by you're gonna be like uh I mean I love a new word. Yeah. Oh, it is an attractive. Oh okay. Well sorry, it's an attractive but unintelligent.

Speaker 47:16

Okay. Oh, okay. I was just gonna say I concentrate on any Matty just not smart checked you.

Speaker 2 47:24

You thought you learned a word, and I just taught you the word has more. It's a new word. I'm trying to learn it.

Speaker 1 47:30

All right.

Speaker 2 47:30

So it's a hot, dumb guy.

Speaker 5 47:32

Yes.

Speaker 1 47:33

Really?

Speaker 5 47:33

So himbo. Himbo, yeah.

Speaker 1 47:35

I've met a couple himbos. Yeah.

Speaker 5 47:37

I've met them a lot.

Quick Hits: Swimming, Blinkers, And Himbo

Speaker 1 47:38

Would you date a himbo? Never.

Speaker 47:41

I I would go on a date, but I wouldn't.

Speaker 1 47:44

Sometimes you maybe know he's a himbo until you're on a date, and you're like, you a himbo. Oh, ooh, himbo.

unknown 47:51

Yeah.

Speaker 1 47:53

So you're more into intelligent men. Correct. It's number one. You're a uh what do they call you?

Speaker 5 48:00

Sapiosexual.

Speaker 48:01

Oh, so is it called Nessa from the Valley Persian style?

Speaker 1 48:04

Yep. Sapiosexual. Sapio.

Speaker 48:07

Sapio.

Speaker 1 48:08

Sapio. And you identify that way?

Speaker 5 48:10

Well, I mean, I don't use it as an identifier. It comes from the homo sapiens. If you say what I'm attracted to, it's intelligent, smart, funny, witty men.

Speaker 1 48:19

So no himbots for you.

Speaker 5 48:20

No himboth. Never. I know. So my pull it out is right before you guys arrived, I had a bad fall. Oh I was wearing, yeah, I was wearing, I have all these pajama pants and they're super long. And I sometimes take them and get them shortened, but sometimes I'm like, this is so stupid to like pay money for pants I'm just wearing to bet. And I was like getting ready, and because they're so long, my foot got stuck in them, and then I fell flat on my face. My hands were all red, they're not, they're okay now. But um, it was it could have been bad. But luckily, I didn't have anything in my hand, so both hands went down and hit.

Speaker 1 49:08

Oh my god. Yeah, you didn't hit your face.

Speaker 5 49:11

No. Oh I've done that before. So no. Because I my hand stopped me. So I kind of fell forward and then like kind of like did a push-up on this because my hands leave it first.

Speaker 49:22

So I might sound like a himbo right now, but I'm gonna ask you a question. Like, so for women, when you buy a pants, you don't have like the length, you know, you cannot buy these are pajamas. Oh, so you don't, yeah, it's just medium large, yeah.

Speaker 1 49:34

You should buy it typically shorter, they could get dangerous. I mean incredible.

Speaker 5 49:38

Honest, like when every time I wear them, I do like I pull them way up as high as they can go, which is well. I have a long shirt, the top, the pajama top goes longer.

Speaker 1 49:50

Okay, yeah.

Speaker 5 49:50

So, but like I do often get nervous, especially going up and down stairs. Like, I'm nervous, my foot's gonna get stuck and I'm gonna tumble.

Speaker 49:58

So I've had that thought, and you still kept because I have tum well, I need to take them and get them shortened.

Speaker 5 50:04

It's just annoying to think I gotta spend more money on something that I wear to bed. Yeah, yeah. Just to crop them up so I don't have a phone.

Speaker 1 50:11

But today, you do more than wear them to bed if this happened. I mean, you were it was noon.

Speaker 5 50:16

Well, I was getting ready for the day. Yeah.

Speaker 1 50:18

Well, if you're it's a weekend. If it's an athleisure thing, it's worth the the mending.

Speaker 5 50:24

When I'm getting ready, the last thing I do is put my clothes on so I get everything else ready first.

Speaker 1 50:30

Okay. My slip it in is a sound bath. Oh, really?

Speaker 5 50:38

Oh, really? I didn't know you were a sound bath person.

Speaker 1 50:41

So I do a 10-minute meditation every day, and I typically go a sound meditation. And so that's the bowls. Yeah. I've seen it in the housewives. It is so relaxing, and I just get very zen with it. And I do like this meditation. You guys should think about meditating. Have you do you ever meditate?

Speaker 5 51:09

Uh, I mean, I have, but not like at home. So you're just listening to a recording.

Speaker 1 51:15

Well, I have yeah, versus oh, I don't have a book, a lady come in with her bowls.

Speaker 5 51:19

Oh, that's what I'm asking. Well, or you can go, you can go places for sound baths.

Speaker 1 51:24

Oh sure. Not for I'm not going somewhere for 10 minutes.

Speaker 51:26

There's a place that you can go in and you can float on a pool on a lazy river with a mask on, like uh you're blindfold, so you're not even to see anything, and then there's a lady with uh the bowl.

Speaker 1 51:41

Now I would do that. Would you do that?

Speaker 51:43

I would do that, yeah. I like it. I mean, I love the water. So I would jump in right after.

Speaker 1 51:48

She'd be backstroking right by us as I'm taking my sound bath. Right. Okay. Do you guys have dishcloths? Yeah. Yes. So that's my pull it out. Really? I hate a wet rag. Um mine are not wet.

Speaker 5 52:03

We don't, yeah. We use yeah, I thought you meant just like a dish towel. You mean like an actual like no, we don't use them, we use a sponge and that's it.

Speaker 1 52:11

I cannot stand, I don't know why this is even came up in my mind, but I just it's disgusting when I go to someone's house and there is a wet rag. Typically, like you I haven't seen one in the in your in your sinks, you have the divider, there's like a rag hanging over it and it's wet, and then it gets used for like a week or multiple days. Yeah, there is so much like probably worse than your roadkill bacteria and shit in there, and it's like wet, and then they use it and reuse it. I guess it's equivalent to like a washcloth. Do you I don't use a washcloth?

Speaker 5 52:48

Oh, how do you wash your face?

Speaker 1 52:51

I I have a sponge. Yeah. I don't know if the sponge is any better, I guess. Yeah.

Falls, Sound Baths, And Wet Rags

Speaker 5 52:56

Well, I wash my face every night before bed with a washcloth.

Speaker 1 53:00

Oh, you do?

Speaker 5 53:01

How do you wash your own?

Speaker 1 53:02

Well, you she has makeup and all that stuff. Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 5 53:04

How do you wash your face without a washcloth?

Speaker 1 53:06

I actually have the facial wipes.

Speaker 5 53:10

Oh, yeah. I don't want to use all those chemicals.

Speaker 1 53:12

Oh. Well, aren't there chemicals in whatever product you're using?

Speaker 53:16

Yeah, but I feel like it's she uses an oil-based cloth. Okay, you know what I use.

Speaker 5 53:21

The manio.

Speaker 53:22

Manio. Yes. But I agree with that. The wet cloth, dirty cloth, uh just usually is gray.

Speaker 1 53:30

If you're out there and you have a wet cloth, you're living dangerously.

Speaker 53:34

You're in danger, girl.

Speaker 1 53:35

You in dang. Okay.

Speaker 5 53:37

Well, I mean, I do just for the cloth people out there, like I do think the cloth people. Well, the clothes if they're using soap all the time, theoretically it's getting itself clean.

Speaker 1 53:51

That's what are you talking about? I you think the soap itself is cleaning the rag as well? Yes. Yeah, but there are like no, not my face.

Speaker 5 54:00

I'm talking the dishcloth and the I don't believe it.

Speaker 1 54:04

Because you're taking it and wiping shit off your counter. Yeah.

Speaker 5 54:07

And then Oh, I don't think they use it for the counters.

Speaker 1 54:10

What are they using?

Speaker 5 54:11

I think they're just like the pans and pots, and then they're putting soap on it and it's clear.

Speaker 1 54:16

I think it's multi-use. That's where I might yeah.

Speaker 5 54:19

All right. Well, okay, fine. All right. Support it.

Speaker 1 54:21

No wet rags. No wet rags.

Speaker 5 54:23

I don't have one. Go look. I have none.
