Speaker 1:No, did you just have smoke coming out of your mouth while?
Speaker 2:you were talking. Not at all. What are you talking about? That was amazing I should definitely change my name to your name. Yeah, just for it just makes things easier. Yeah, right, because I don't have to like if I say, like I'm sandro davis, I'm not gonna be like david, what you're like because if they, as my name, my name's always like just messed up to say somebody's messed up.
Speaker 1:It's messed up I'm very messed up um. You look very cute in your new jacket thank you, you look very.
Speaker 2:Thank you for saying that about my jacket that you bought me. Yeah, really nice, I like it. What's that website?
Speaker 1:the fashion nova oh, don't buy stuff from them. They're terrible.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I like, I like it because what you did was you bought something. I think, wait, wait, yeah, you bought me a jacket for 12 because they're on sale, because they're really quality stuff. And then I got it and I was like, oh no, it's too big, I don't like the way it fits, so you return it, and it costs $8 to ship it back. So then you're left with $4. And then you think to yourself, well, I might as well put another 50 on top of this.
Speaker 1:That's exactly what I did too. That's that's how they get you, and you have a package coming today. I have a package coming today. Yeah, I have a, because of that. Right, that's the fast fashion that we're not supposed to, because it's like it's just it's garbage.
Speaker 2:But I had a credit, that's that's how they like racing, and you're like hearts pounding and you're like, oh my god, store credit's so hot, you know, because I have to only spend it there, like. You know, like I hate having freedom and be able to spend my money wherever I want. It's really, really satisfying and like just to be able to only spend it at one specific like. I couldn't tell you how happy I was when I got 300 in bells credits and I was able to go what's bells?
Speaker 2:bells is an East Coast store that's shitty and basically you go in there and it's like a rundown. Even crappier, Ross.
Speaker 3:Oh, mm-hmm, what about Belks?
Speaker 2:Belts, Belts. Is that a store? Oh? B-e-l-t-z.
Speaker 3:No K B-E-L-K.
Speaker 2:Oh, Belks.
Speaker 1:Yeah, is that like the Midwest or something?
Speaker 2:That's midwest or something, that's a carol. Yep, there you go, okay, what'd you say? It's a carolina thing. Oh, okay, okay, okay, oh, and you thought because we weren't in carolina that we might know what it was. Yeah, I thought it was everywhere. See, I thought bells was everywhere and I just remember that was in florida last week.
Speaker 1:So well, yeah, you're gonna put some helmans on your. You're gonna put some helmans on your sandwich I'll put some helmans on my sandwich instead.
Speaker 2:Instead of a miracle, that's what they say right, best foods yeah, we use best foods, best foods Over in the yeah, they use.
Speaker 1:Hellmann's. Yeah, it's the same exact product.
Speaker 2:They're stupid. It's so dumb. So I'm just in case you don't know who I am and what we do, in case I'm a.
Speaker 1:I'm Nikki Davis Jr. I'm a standup esthetician and a licensed comedian. Nice, it's funnier every time.
Speaker 2:I see it. I like when you nail it. Yeah, it's like plus, like every week. You say it every week and you still go. Licensed comedian.
Speaker 1:Cause I have to.
Speaker 2:I have to like not screw it up, cause it's going to be less funny. If I say it the right way, right, because it doesn't make any sense. If you say it the right way but the other way around, legit, logically, you're like, oh, that's wrong, and then you like you.
Speaker 1:That's why it's different it's always, that's always what I think, after everything I say like oh, that's wrong, that's wrong.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that's a good, that's another good improv yeah, yeah, yeah oh, that's wrong yeah, we're.
Speaker 1:We're teaching a bad improv, in case you're uh oh, I'm down.
Speaker 3:I love improv. Okay, good deal, it's bad improv though, so why not?
Speaker 1:oh yeah, it's all not to do yeah, yeah, yeah, why not?
Speaker 2:exactly, why not? That's another one, what is it? But why not? Perfect, because you're not putting. Oh yeah, you're not even the and hi, I'm gonna, I'm in the pet store, but why not? Be somewhere else yeah, see that mark, that works yeah, I like that, because make it your own technically you are yes anding because you're adding something to it, but no, yes, but yes but it's just real life, improv.
Speaker 2:Not everything goes according to plan. That's why arguments happen. If the world happened like improv happened, there'd be no conflict. Everybody would just be so stupid and annoying and we wouldn't have any war Without conflict.
Speaker 1:Yeah, and I don't like that Spoken like a true man.
Speaker 2:That's right. I know men create all the conflict.
Speaker 1:They really do, honestly.
Speaker 3:Don't you think? I think so. Because, you see the bonobos. They don't have any problems. Who's bonobos? Tell me about that. Oh, they're like chimps, but they're, you know, they have sex for fun and the women keep them in line. It's a what's it called.
Speaker 1:Like a matriarchy. Oh, I love it. I have earrings that say fuck the patriarchy that I wear sometimes.
Speaker 2:Wow, okay, oh, I said that for a minute. So the bonobos, that's okay we'll just we'll blurp that out, Blurp.
Speaker 1:Technical term blurp, blurp, technical term blurp, Blurp that out, and with me is Sandro Yocolano, as usual. Sorry, I didn't mean to not touch you, that's okay.
Speaker 2:You keep touching my favorite knuckle. I know sorry, I don't know what it is.
Speaker 3:Why are you?
Speaker 1:doing that Because I don't know.
Speaker 2:Okay.
Speaker 1:It looked enticing.
Speaker 2:Let's not do this, because then we have to use the wide shot listening at home or wherever you're listening to and you're not watching. The wide shot is exactly what it sounds like.
Speaker 1:All right, go ahead no, I think that, oh, you wanted me to say more things about you um he's a boyfriend sherpa um set decorator I decorate the set and uh problem creator. Creator. Yeah, I'm a problem creator no one ever.
Speaker 2:You know, people's always looking for the solver, but the people who create the problems oh yeah, they're much more creative solvers if they're weren't creators that's true and you create. You create your own destiny. You know, is that what that means? No okay, I don't know I actually don't know.
Speaker 1:I just said no, and that's a good one too.
Speaker 2:Yeah, just, oh, it's not. It's not as like grabby, but what if like? What? How about just the? It's not as like grabby, but what if like? How about just the stare Like, just like to look back and forth, like?
Speaker 1:Yeah, it draws the audience in.
Speaker 2:And then going. I think that's a good.
Speaker 1:I think that's. You think that's a good, that's a good. That's another one.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I think that's a good Improv. Can be whatever you want it to be.
Speaker 3:Just don't pay anybody to take it. Can we improvise my intro?
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 3:I didn't know, am I being rude?
Speaker 2:No, I thought we were improvising. Right now you were talking.
Speaker 1:What's going to happen is, since the audience didn't read who's going to be on the show Already, because I'm going to not print it. Of course I'm going to put it on there and they already know, but you're supposed to be a secret.
Speaker 2:No, no, no, no, but you're supposed to talk.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you can talk. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2:Because your sarcasm is very confusing.
Speaker 1:But then we're going to switch you and then you're going to be on camera, okay, and then so that, yes, and then so that's when I'll intro you, and so you would prefer like a Sandro's. I'm going to yeah, all right, so I will leave that to you to do it. Oh, okay, yeah, you don't trust me.
Speaker 3:No, I trust you, whatever you want to do.
Speaker 1:That's the wrong answer. I'm kidding. Yeah, that's the wrong answer. That's the wrong answer.
Speaker 2:Yeah, should we bring out the guests. Let's do that. Okay, we can bring out the guests, so that you know we have, we all, we're all on, even we have. We've all been briefed we've all been briefed, I feel bad if I know what's going on and the guest doesn't, and then we just sandbag her with something that I'm just gonna not know anything about I don't even know how to respond. Okay, cool, all right yeah all right.
Speaker 1:Um well, today okay. So last week was the misconceptions uh, big no-nos for wound care we got we got so many views on that one.
Speaker 2:Oh man, wound care, misconceptions, dude, um, don't even get me, but today I picked five misconceptions misconceptions about just general skincare regimes regimens, I'm sorry, not regimes. Let me say that again.
Speaker 1:Yeah, five common misconceptions about skincare regimes. Yes, regimens, regimens. Why do I want to say regime?
Speaker 2:I think I think you have like some sort of a military coup on your mind. Maybe that's why yes, that's what I'm thinking.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I have that authoritative. That's why I want I'm sorry I interrupted and I'm like hey, get to this.
Speaker 1:No, no, no I like it when the guest takes charge I like how you did it.
Speaker 2:you're like how are we going to start this? I'm just curious, how are we going to start this? I?
Speaker 1:like that. It worked.
Speaker 2:I was starting to lose. You know, I was getting too loose. I wish I was in the car. I was like oh, let's just get out of here.
Speaker 1:Yeah, but she brought us back, but she brought us back, so we, we're good.

She actors and actresses and uh, I know her she works at like the best comedy club in the world uh, right down the street from here and if you know where, it is cool. If you don't, don't, then yeah, you're probably a loser, but yeah, she's super fucking hilarious and just a really fun person to talk to. I remember I think I met her. She was doing a series of. She did a tour in like this massage parlor clinic, I think, like in Arizona, was it when you got busted at the Bunny Ranch? Oh yeah.
Speaker 3:Was that in Nevada? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2:I busted at the bunny ranch. Oh, is that in nevada? Yeah, yeah, I lived in nevada for a while. I call it nevada, that's called nevada. Yeah, she got confused.
Speaker 3:Yeah, so she got convicted, I think it was 32 counts of luden, lascivious behavior. And then shit happens.
Speaker 2:Shit happens, right right she was a well-renowned motorcycle thief throughout the sahara desert and I don't know why you have a motorcycle in the sahara desert, but it did work out well, best place to ride yeah, and she was also in um the mule with clint eastwood as a biker as a biker, so the whole theme goes through there. She's a badass and she's one of my best friends and I really, really I adore her and her. She's just silly and uh she doesn't care about you.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, that doesn't care about anybody got to the most important part of it yeah, yeah but I want to mention I hope it's okay for me to mention about she's the first female door guy at the comedy store. She's paving the way for all of us and I think that's dude. It's so cool and I'm still like just like trying to like I don't know, I want it to rub off on me a little bit you know what, what, what, what, I don't know, like I play around to rub off on me a little bit, you know what, I don't know.
Speaker 1:Like I play around with the idea of, like you know, like, putting myself in there. Oh, you want to do it. I mean, maybe I don't know, maybe why not? I don't know why not?
Speaker 2:There you go. Let's bring this around over here.

Speaker 3:Tell me about that robe this is a second hand robe. It came from a laundromat and my stepmama worked at, and if you leave your clothes there, we get to take them how long does it have to sit there? Um, I don't know. Good question a couple hours. Yeah, you don't go back that day. I mean, I assume you didn't want it, yeah that's a good point.
Speaker 2:If it's so important to you, you would have noticed it missing.
Speaker 3:That's right exactly if you would have bathed that night might have recognized it was gone. That's a good point.
Speaker 2:The other person who had it sucked. Yeah, they did not deserve that role.
Speaker 3:No, they mistreated it and they put this nice little belt thing on it. I appreciate that. That's nice. They did that or you did that. No, it came as it is, no it did not. Yeah, I mean I've washed it with this on it. It's all knotted in here.
Speaker 1:If you're listening and not watching. She has a beautiful black galore sort of robe and then there's a scarf with multicolored polka dots that looks like it didn't come with it. I feel like Playboy. You are giving Playboy vibes right now.
Speaker 2:I like that you feel like Playboy. You sound like you're a foreigner. I feel like Playboy.
Speaker 1:I feel like Playboy, like a smoking jacket.
Speaker 3:I can take your woman right now, that's right, you better watch out.
Speaker 1:She's on the couch not you.
Speaker 3:He's like at this point.
Speaker 1:He's just like fine, don't worry about it Please, that's my woman. Everybody's rushing today in your life. I don't know what's going on with that, I feel really bad for the people that don't like it. You know, I don't see anything wrong with it. I don't think people, people, would care with it. No, no, no, it's a good accent.
Speaker 2:Thank you very much, you're welcome.
Speaker 1:It doesn't seem real at all. I hope it doesn't get you canceled, but it sounds great. No, it's terrible.
Speaker 2:See that's how you improv. Yeah, that's improv.
Speaker 1:That's terrible, that's terrible.
Speaker 2:Oh, that's a good one, you shouldn't do that anymore.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that trying to tell us something.
Speaker 3:You wear amazing earrings today. She's got on these like sort of gold, are they? Two different ones no, it's the same one. Okay, uh, but I worked ammo in the military, so that's why I got these. What do you mean talk to me about that? Oh, um well, we built test store and account for all munitions on the base. Uh, often they call us BB counters because we did a lot of counting, counting.
Speaker 1:BBs.
Speaker 2:Yeah, counting bullets, shoot they couldn't call you bullet counters, but they have to make you.
Speaker 1:BB.
Speaker 3:Exactly, they put us down. That's alright, so the earrings are made out of something from that. Have you ever heard of a? This is funny piss pot. Sorry, because we were talking about how much I hate the word piss in certain contexts, you know, but this is a piss pot which is like a bomb.
Speaker 1:Oh, I've never even seen that.
Speaker 3:Oh, it's right. Here I have the tattoo that's a piss pot. Which part of it? The whole thing? The, which part of it? The whole thing, the whole thing. And why did you tattoo that on your hand? Because I was ammo and this represents Ammo. Oh, okay.
Speaker 2:You have to. I like the way you said that.
Speaker 3:Because if you ain't ammo, you ain't shit. That's our whole thing.
Speaker 2:Oh, okay, I dig it and that's pride in your department.
Speaker 3:Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly I would get a comedy store tattoo. Yeah, I get that. Okay, yeah, yeah, I want to get the the face of the first comedy club I worked at, the guy that that started it. I want to get his face on me. I still want to do that. Oh, that's nice. Yeah, let's tribute, yeah homage homage, you have any?
Speaker 1:tattoos just this one, that's so cute we all got it after my grandmother passed away and so we all went and got little because she would sign. We got it. We took it from uh, like some, every time she would sign her name she would write put this little heart, um.
Speaker 1:And so we took the actual piece of paper that she wrote on and then all of us cousins went and uh, got over, yeah except for the few that were afraid of what their parents would think oh okay, but it's just a little tattoo, it's just little yeah, I just yeah, I can't make up my like, I don't, I can't, I don't think I could stick with anything long enough like you, just like fuck it yeah, but now she can't.
Speaker 2:You can't be a banker with that tattoo I never want to be a banker like a, you know, like a capital one or like a chase branch or something like that. No one's going to want to see you count their money with that. So now you just eliminate yourself from being a banker.
Speaker 1:Maybe that's why I'm not getting hired for any commercials lately, when I show my hands.
Speaker 3:You could wear a watch.
Speaker 1:That's really easy to cover up.
Speaker 3:I have a face tattoo. It's subtle when.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah you can't even tell it's nice.
Speaker 3:Oh yeah, you can't even tell it's nice and you don't really see it at the store because of all the red lights that's genius and you can just walk around with a red light under your whole time and it's like a decoder.
Speaker 2:You see it, it makes a funny little oh, I see it now. Oh, that's like a cracker jack box you gotta hand out the little, yeah, yeah hey, anytime you can use a monocle, that's a win yeah, you get a pocket full of monocles.
Speaker 1:What's that sound? That's jess in her pocket full of monocles they're all your merch yeah, yeah, you do have a ton of merch though, okay, and so I wanted to make mention of these earrings, which, by the way, as an esthetician, this is like probably a big no-no but they're cigarettes if you're listening and not watching. One is shorter than the other, which I thought was fantastic.
Speaker 1:One was smoked one was smoked this one has not been smoked, okay, so this one's for later. Yeah, and then um, but yeah, and I've gotten already so many compliments on them oh, they're great happy.
Speaker 3:Thank you, those are. Those are easy to make, I have to be honest, but then I've been doing clay and stuff, so it's been. Yeah, I've been experimenting, are you selling them?
Speaker 1:Yeah, I'd like to. Okay, so like, if they go to your, what if your Instagram or something like that? Yeah, you can get them on Instagram.
Speaker 3:I'm not, I'm working on it, because as soon as of stuff and then I'm like yeah, but I gotta get better at it yeah they look.
Speaker 2:I mean I thought you like got them from the store and you're like oh, somebody gave me these.
Speaker 1:You know, I mean like those look, I'm done, because they look like they're professionally made, like you'd find them in the store I went to bed with them the other day. We were like you. What did you say?
Speaker 2:I think you said that I don't you know. Oh yeah, you shouldn't be in bed with uh with your cigarette earrings. Yeah, yeah, you don't fall asleep with your cigarette earrings, yeah you don't fall asleep with your cigarette earrings on.
Speaker 1:That's how she died.
Speaker 3:That's a good rule for your business as an esthetician. What's that? Don't fall asleep with your cigarette earrings.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, yeah, not don't smoke, just don't fall asleep with them in your ears, right?
Speaker 3:It'd be funny if one was, you know smoking though yeah, if I could make it smoke, that would be.
Speaker 1:Oh, that would be awesome ideal you can get candy cigarettes to do that right you remember those?
Speaker 3:yeah I remember those, and then they would blow, smoke you, but you'd have to do the opposite, not suck in, blow out, blow it out. Right, that's right. Yeah, that didn't really teach me the right way to smoke. Right is fucked up.
Speaker 2:But you waste all those cigarettes, man guys $13 yeah that's how you do coke too.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you blow, it's called blow yeah, it's so many confusing.
Speaker 2:It's like yeah, it's blow, get it.
Speaker 3:Oh, they'll never catch on.
Speaker 2:Then I'm snorting it they'll think I'm just blowing it into the wind um, so, uh, what else?
Speaker 1:what else you got going on here? You got your uh, you have fishnets under your jeans, which I really like. Are those jeans or leggings? These are leggings okay I like it yeah, um, uh.
Speaker 3:When you get to be a bigger gal, the things that stretch are your friend. You know what I mean they go. When you get smaller, they're with you. When you get bigger, they're still with you they're loyal abandonment. You know what I'm saying?
Speaker 2:yeah, I like that, that's like really efficient living, like that's like getting the most out of everything, because it's like I've done, that I have clothes, I have closets. I do have one closet full of clothes that I just know that eventually I'll get back into somehow.
Speaker 1:Yeah, he's got like a rotation right. I have a rotation, yeah these are like the different weights, right, yeah, basically.
Speaker 2:And I put one on and I'm like, oh man, I guess I didn't gain weight, or I guess I did lose weight, or whatever.
Speaker 3:It feels good yeah.
Speaker 2:Yeah. And then I kind of stick it back to marshall's. I'm like f screw you, man, I don't need you why marshall's? That's why I do all my heavy lifting shopping.
Speaker 3:He does actually you know I had one jewish person in my family and his name was marshall really mathers, was it m&m?
Speaker 2:he doesn't matter, he doesn't matter, it doesn't matter.
Speaker 1:No, nice he doesn't matter, I'm going to bet it.
Speaker 2:Boom. That's another good improv, by the way. Boom Boom.
Speaker 1:Yeah, why did you mention that he was Jewish and his name was Marshall?
Speaker 3:Because those are the facts. Okay, and he talked about Marshall. Sorry, I guess I do have an improv brain, because then I just that's what made me think of you connected dots. Yeah, he said Marshall, oh, I went, oh, my Uncle Marshall.
Speaker 1:I have an Uncle Marshall. What, yeah, he's in Virginia.
Speaker 3:Well, they're in North Carolina, oh well, they're perfect.
Speaker 1:They're probably best friends, probably they probably shot the belts do we even talk about that on camera? Yeah, I think we did, we did. I believe we did. Yeah, I think we did, because I remember it went nowhere. I interrupted.
Speaker 3:I wasn't sure if I was supposed to. That's right, yeah, no.
Speaker 2:I like that you just did. Anyways, though, it's totally good you got us back on track.
Speaker 1:Exactly.
Speaker 3:Hello. Thank you for calling the orbs. What can I predict for you? You should already know what they want to predict.
Speaker 2:That's right. Unbelievable. What should I predict for you? She's terrible.
Speaker 1:Bad business.
Speaker 2:It's like a mind reader with cliff notes so your name is it's their autobiography.
Speaker 1:That's hilarious, wikipedia you sure you're not online. You're nobody have you ever called a psychic? No, I don't. I haven't either.
Speaker 3:I would like to maybe go to one of those ones that put on a production like I want to get my money's worth.
Speaker 1:Yeah you know what I?
Speaker 3:mean like give me all the smoke and mirrors, literally right oh, yeah, I like that. Yeah, it's almost like a show yeah, yeah, like you feel, like wow it's an experience, even if they're bullshit.
Speaker 1:It might just it's just a total exactly then you feel like you don't get swindled, yeah yeah, I like that.
Speaker 2:There was that one across the street from the comedy store years ago. Um, that was there for the longest time and one night a like swarm of police just surrounded it and closed down the street and pointed guns to that entrance and then said come out slowly with your hands up and backwards. And all of a sudden, like four people just slowly walked out backwards with their hands up, and then I, and then I was yeah, then the store's what they were doing at a psychic.
Speaker 3:I have no idea it's.
Speaker 2:Obviously it wasn't the psychics, it was the no, it was, it was the, it was a tarot reading psychic, weird, um, and I was like, well, what's going on behind there? So it had to be a front for something I don't think people are really psychic right I think people are psychic.
Speaker 1:I mean they could they could have some clairvoyance I think people are getting more and more intuitive lately.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 1:I think our consciousness is changing. I don't want to get too woo-woo.
Speaker 3:Sometimes I know stuff and I don't know why I know it.
Speaker 1:It's it, and if you trust that it will just keep coming, yeah, just trust it.
Speaker 2:See, I can see that. But for someone to know so much of you just by you sitting down like to get anywhere in that even if you get to that point, you'd have to be able to like read people and see what they're like and make assumptions about them.
Speaker 3:Oh, I watch, don't you like to people watch? I love that absolutely. Yeah, I love to people watch and like little mannerisms and stuff I don't know, I love to watch it you write stories about them in your head yeah, oh yeah all the time. And one of my big things recently was like people that walk with their, that swing their arms behind them instead of like what are they thinking about? You know what?
Speaker 1:that's it. I love that you and saunders should get together, because he is constantly looking at people walk and run, yeah they're walked and run the way people eat ice cream cones in public yeah, it's all like there's you look around, yeah, you go home to time.
Speaker 2:Yeah, do you make like do you know what your face looks like? Like I've, I'm fascinated by it for sure. Yeah, absolutely. But I liked how curious you're like. You're like what's, what's he thinking about?
Speaker 1:Yeah, with his hands behind him, yeah.
Speaker 3:Yeah, that's how like ingrained in him. Yeah, but it looks like. Like.
Speaker 2:It looks like you're really on the move like yeah, he's going very fast or maybe he's up in like hurricane force winds, and he was always blowing behind you and he's never and he's always like all right.
Speaker 3:Well, if I do this, I'll always be ready for a hurricane or maybe he's worried about just about his posture that's true you know, and if you keep your hands back, then you're gonna be more likely to stand up straight or maybe, maybe he's always hiding something.
Speaker 2:That's true too, see I think either all these being curious about it is not even you're not judging, you're just like I wonder what yeah, could be, could be, could be. And when you say could be, you're not judging. So it's a more of a you know, even if the person looks ridiculous. Curiosity is there. It's like yeah, I mean like in a good way, you know, not like ridiculous in a bad way oh yeah, I look ridiculous all the time yeah, you have to yeah you wouldn't be here if you didn't, if you weren't a little bit ridiculous.
Speaker 1:That's ridiculous. That's another good improv, by the way. I think that was another MTV show.
Speaker 3:That's ridiculous, no, ridiculousness or something.
Speaker 2:Yes, that's ridiculousness. Oh yeah, yeah, with that guy from half of the Robin Big. Is that the one? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3:Yeah, yep, sorry, we were talking about MTV earlier. What's that? You worked at MTV? No, no, no, we were talking about it oh right right right.
Speaker 1:We were, yeah, I don't remember. Well, that could also be a good improv too. I don't remember what we were talking about.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I, I mean that could be a choice. I guess you could have memory issues oh, that's true, that's a good one.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I like that. You're curious again.
Speaker 1:Maybe this person just doesn't remember exactly jessica's fixing our bad improv, though. That's how good she is. That's how good she is.
Speaker 2:She can't just yeah she's putting logic to the bad improv yeah and, but I get it, just go with it, just let it, let it be terrible yeah, why not? You just, yes, ended it. Oh man, all right, fine, all right well, let's get to the top. Well, go ahead, hold on before we finish before we get on to the top. But what's today's topic?
Speaker 1:oh well, we did mention it earlier, but it is in case you're just tuning in. Uh, it's common misconceptions about your skincare regimen okay okay. Do you have a skincare regimen? Do you try? Yeah, I know you told me one time when you came into this, uh, to the store, you had just had a facial yes, I did that chemical pill thing not like one of the major, like the ones where you end up all red for a long, long time.
Speaker 3:But uh, I don't know. You probably know what. What did I get?
Speaker 1:um well I wasn't there I wish that I'd been there, because I would have got the money about it um, I'm thinking like a, maybe an enzyme peel. How strong was it?
Speaker 3:I don't know. I mean I was red for a little bit, but not. I've seen some that they just stay red well, that's probably a strong chemical peel.
Speaker 1:And then there's another one called the phenol peel, which we're going to talk about next week with Sarah Lawrence, and it burns your face off.
Speaker 3:That's what I was talking about. That's what I was thinking about.
Speaker 1:We're going to bring her on next week and we're going to talk all about it.
Speaker 3:I'm so excited, yeah, I turned 40, and then I got like oh shit, Fix it your skin looks good.
Speaker 2:Fix it. I think every person that's 40 or over absolutely yeah, relate to that Shit.
Speaker 1:I got to fix it, Whatever it is. That's what my whole business is based on.
Speaker 2:Turning 40.
Speaker 1:Yes, fixing it yeah.
Speaker 3:I got my first round of Botox too. You did, I did. I don't know if you agree with that or not.
Speaker 1:I don't disagree with it. I just say, if you're going to do it, make sure that you're also working the muscles, because they'll atrophy after a while and also you'll overuse other muscles to compensate. Where'd you get it?
Speaker 3:Oh, here here and here, okay, which I was really. I want to get it again here. Yeah, I was really happy with that.
Speaker 1:It wears off, so it's not like permanent yeah.
Speaker 3:I really liked it to be honest with you. How long did it last for you? I think it's still going some of it.
Speaker 1:Yeah yeah, you don't have a ton of I mean, I don't know what your normal eye movement is, though.
Speaker 3:Yeah.
Speaker 1:I didn't like I had more you now, but I used to have more. Okay, the crow's feet and then more on my forehead. You know what you might like too. Um is uh, the uh, the burn, that the burnt. What is it called? The the uh, the tape, what?
Speaker 2:oh, the um, the uh. I knew he was talking about it's for scar taping, it's like.
Speaker 1:It's like silicone tape and you can put it on your face and you can buy pre-cut sheets of it and it'll flatten your skin out like while you're sleeping.
Speaker 3:And it's not permanent, but it does help and it also helps your face from doing that. That's like the hemorrhoid cream, they would tell you. Oh yeah, I don't recommend that.
Speaker 1:Maybe in your butt, but not on your face. But is it supposed to tighten?
Speaker 3:It's supposed to have you tried it. No, I haven't done it. Yeah, I, I don't know we should do it though, just for experiment.
Speaker 1:All right, I'll do it if you do it.
Speaker 3:All right, all right, and then I'll report back.
Speaker 1:Absolutely Okay, and I will report your report. Yeah.
Speaker 3:I think it'll be fun. All right, I mean just one time.
Speaker 1:One time. Yeah, For fun.
Speaker 2:It just smells so peppery and I was like I'll put it here, Because I just huge bags, you know I don't think it did anything, but for the rest of the day I was sweating from here, Just profusely sweating from here, Like thick hemorrhoid cream. So I was like going like this the whole time.
Speaker 3:And then you rub more in your eye when you do that. Oh yeah, it was a nightmare More swelling.
Speaker 2:Yeah, more swelling, but ironically my hemorrhoids were at their worst Throbbing anal fissures Exactly.
Speaker 1:It's my new band, by the way. The Throbbing Anal Fissures, oh I liked it.
Speaker 3:Yeah, you want to join? Hell, yeah, you play an instrument. No, I wish I was musical.
Speaker 1:I feel like you did In my mind, in my fantasy mind. I felt like you probably play guitars yeah, you do.
Speaker 3:You look like a rocker no, I, I, I am not musically inclined. I, I wish I could carry a tune. I played that xbox game with my friend. You know we were supposed to sing and every time she was like the pitch higher to pitch, and then I'd be like I just get louder, like I don't know not louder higher. Yeah, I'm like well what do you mean? That sounds the same to me.
Speaker 1:I feel like I don't know, maybe in another life you were in a rock band. That would be cool.
Speaker 3:You were in like a southern rock band. Oh yeah, like Lynyrd Skynyrd.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I was exactly like Lynyrd Skynyrd, only not them, because they die in a plane crash, don't they? Oh God so lame, stupid, all right. Well, let's get into this really fast, because it's been a half an hour and people are going to be, oh, I'm so sorry, no no, you're good, you're allowed to do whatever you want, say whatever you want, it's us that have to keep it on track, so any tangents. You want to go on go for it.
Speaker 2:Yeah, if this doesn't work out, it's all on nikki, exactly, oh no, yeah, oh thank you, jess yeah, it's your, it's your fault, okay, that?
Speaker 1:backfired allired. Yes, it did, I know All right. So the first one that I picked up was that a product is only good if you're seeing the results immediately. Right, is that right?
Speaker 3:No.
Speaker 1:That's a misconception. There's a lot of products that you're going to use you know like that are going to over time, like, say, you use a retinol. I think I'm using retinol now at night, you are okay, yeah, so give that some time, okay, and that will help to strengthen your skin and stimulate new collagen in the skin, and I use collagen in the day use collagen um cream and I do it in my coffee.
Speaker 3:Oh, that's great. Yeah, yeah, I'm trying to stay young.
Speaker 1:This is it's rough out here, I know, but you look good you're doing something right fuck yeah, I mean you know what, don't stifle your excitement so let's see, I'm just going through my notes here to see. So sing whatever blah, blah, blah. Yeah, alright, so just, that's basically the thing you got a lot more up there.
Speaker 3:You didn't just say that's basically the thing. Yeah, you got a lot more up there. You didn't just say that's basically the thing.
Speaker 1:Well, I just there's stuff that I don't think that is extremely important in my notes.
Speaker 2:She likes to over-prepare and then when she goes through it, she goes no, I'll get my point across. No, I've already got my point across. And then she moves on.
Speaker 1:It's good to form a habit though. Habit, though, and I think that's important with the skincare regimen is that you do it consistently, because doing it once is not going to solve all your problems. You're not going to go out and drink, you know, and party and and then solve everything solve everything.
Speaker 2:The next day. Yeah, your eye bags are not going to go I mean you can try to do it for sure every time. I mean that's what I do every time I'm like, okay, I know I'm not going to see results, but I'm like, wait, do I? This is garbage, because you didn't see any results um, so yeah, all right.
Speaker 1:So let's see number two that oily skin doesn't need moisturizer.
Speaker 3:That's a misconception because I can get very oily I'm dry and oily. Right, I guess I have what's it called you have combination skin.
Speaker 1:Yeah, well, you pretty much. Almost everybody has, because we have a t-zone right which is your. This is where you have the. The biggest pores are through um, on the sides of your nose, your nose down, you know, along the well, I guess mostly there and then on the forehead we get a lot of um, a lot of oil, a lot of greasiness, yeah, Um and so, but using.
Speaker 1:if you are too dry, your skin will actually produce. Or if you're wait, hold on. If you don't use the moisturizer, shoot, I had it all all right, hold on, it's gonna be from the nose um so you do okay, so you. The oil is good for your skin what was my point with this?
Speaker 2:hold on, I'm you're forgetting a good improv. Oh shoot.
Speaker 3:Um, that was really good right to go through. Oh my god, all I know is I should have peed before this All right.
Speaker 1:So we're talking about oily skin still needs a moisturizer. Okay, so I get a lot of this stuff from the internet and so, like, sometimes I'll agree with something and sometimes I won't. I'm not a big fan of over washing. I believe that if you've washed your face at night, you generally don't need to wash your face in the morning, and especially if you have oily skin, because you're going to keep drying it out and it's going to produce more oil.
Speaker 3:Oh, cause I had a lady I was seeing in North Carolina that was doing a lot of skincare stuff for me and she told me that I should do morning and night, cause she said night was most important because in you Night is most important because you're taking off all the day's dirt and all that stuff, any makeup that you use.
Speaker 1:But I believe if you allow your skin to breathe, your skin always will try to create stasis. So it'll try it'll, it'll. If you keep putting, if you keep taking off the stripping off your natural oils, just like when you wash your hair too much eventually your hair and your skin will just keep producing more oil, and that's what you don't want, right? So you can use like a light, oil-free moisturizer on your face at you know, but in the morning, if your face feels okay, I don't think you need to wash it.
Speaker 3:Um, I mean, you could try it and see, do you like, do you just put some water on it or anything, or do you for me?
Speaker 1:I might put some water on it and then use something to like lock in the moisture like a you know like a cream, or like you know something like that or yeah yeah, I put a ziploc bag around my head that locks in the moisture tears. Do for your skin tears are salty, so they're gonna dry out your skin. I know that explains a lot, right, yeah?
Speaker 3:well, there you go.
Speaker 1:She's got dry, just dry areas that go just down.
Speaker 2:This way, everything else is oily oh my god, is that what happened to salt lake city?
Speaker 3:what, oh, utah's just so terrible, we just cried salt lake city.
Speaker 1:Okay, I okay. So eye creams, um, they were saying okay. So this one said that eye creams are the same as same as like a regular moisturizer. I think, personally, do you use an eye cream?
Speaker 3:no, I mean I have some, but I rarely use them, okay yeah, I think.
Speaker 1:I personally think that if it's working and it's not too heavy, you can. You don't want to go too heavy. That's the thing. Because the eye skin is it's thinner and the it's harder for things to get out of the pores and you're going to create things called milia Are those like those blackheads. They're like the whiteheads that are trapped underneath the skin. Oh yeah.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I love watching people popping.
Speaker 1:Oh, do you really? I can't watch it. I can do it, I love doing it, I just can't watch it on TV.
Speaker 3:It makes me want to to you next time, please do. Yeah, it's my favorite thing. I'm really gentle. How do you do blackheads on? I'm sorry, what do?
Speaker 1:you. How do you do blackheads on your nose Yourself or me?
Speaker 3:Well, yeah, at home. If you were somebody at home that wanted to do it.
Speaker 1:If you're going to do it at home, I would say don't do it often, because the more often you do it, the more your skin gets used to pumping out, pushing out that oil, and then also your pores, I think, can get larger, um. But if you're going to do it at home, do it after you've, you know, steamed or showered or something like that, and you can just you don't want to, I don't know. I know how I do it is. I just sort of put pressure on both sides and sort of do like a twisting um, which is what I would do on you. You don't want to go crazy, you could even just like just the the, the pressure from pushing on one side to the other might be like the Biori strips don't work, because they just they just pull off the top and your pores go down like this, like a little curly Q, you know, or whatever it is.
Speaker 2:Bless you.
Speaker 3:Thank you Um, we all got frogs in our fruits.
Speaker 1:What's the fires I?
Speaker 3:know what's the fires? I think, oh, that makes sense. Right, I'm going to say that I'm always like this, but, yeah, I'll take that.
Speaker 1:I know Fires, it's the fires, fires.
Speaker 3:But you're saying, because I have one of them scraper things, I probably shouldn't use that on my nose and stuff.
Speaker 1:Oh, so you have a comedone extractor, right? Is it like have a little hole in it?
Speaker 3:no, I do have that okay, this is one like. It's just a metal rounded. Looks like a razor blade, but it's not.
Speaker 1:It's rounded okay, and then?
Speaker 2:you just go so you're just putting pressure, basically, I don't even know how to describe that face to a listener I feel like you're making, you're making the face of like, like, how, like, how, how intense you would do it yeah.
Speaker 3:I'm trying to show you. I gotta get in there, do you really?
Speaker 1:Okay, well, be gentle on your skin, though. Okay, you gotta make it last for a long time, you know.
Speaker 3:Right.
Speaker 1:We hope, yes, well, I hope your doesn't outlast you, oh that would be weird.
Speaker 3:Well, that's like the. Now you're going silent to the lambs oh, that's true.
Speaker 2:Oh, wow, that's right. That talk that's reusing a lot of people like you see people just wasting, you just totally reusing everything.
Speaker 3:I love that that's reused, yeah, that's honoring, you know, the land yeah, you use someone else's face. Yeah, we should ask them how long does that last? If you use a skin mask.
Speaker 1:Right. Well, yeah, the Texas Chainsaw Dude, right, mm the real, the real guy, the real guy.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, that's right.
Speaker 1:He removed, uh, with the chainsaw, though he like filleted people, I actually don't know I think that was a combination of several different guys, but yeah, that seems to be a thing though people removing other people's flesh and putting it on you.
Speaker 3:Better be careful she might be oiling you up oh my god, is it oh?
Speaker 1:why do you think I'm so careful with his face?
Speaker 2:it's like an ultra, like beverly hills, like elite level, like there's like oh. It's like no underground, like they cut people's faces off. It's like homeless people, nobody even cares about.
Speaker 1:It's like all those movies where they you know yeah, it's a space, it's like squid game I haven't seen it, so thanks for that, yeah it's, I will, I will.
Speaker 3:It's really gross have you seen squid game?
Speaker 2:I haven't seen the new season okay I saw the one before it's twisted, it's interesting, it's I, I like, I like the uh korean uh film genre like what how they do things.
Speaker 1:It's different it's cool, very creative. I dig it all. Right, let's look and see what else we got here. Uh oh. So what I do recommend for eyes are serums. That's my favorite thing are serums. Serums tend to be a little more expensive. If you're going to use a hyaluronic acid serum, you got to lock it in with something else, because if you just use plain hyaluronic acid, it actually makes your skin drier because it it it pulls the moisture out. Right, because hyaluronic acid is like pulling moisture into itself, but if you don't lock it down, it's going to just. It makes your skin actually feel worse and I think a lot of people that's another, that's a, that's number six that I didn't even add. Is that hyaluronic acid? I didn't even put that on there. Um people go.
Speaker 3:Oh, I'm just coming up with this stuff. I know I'm just free flowing. Yeah, that's good. You're, yeah, you're ad libbing. That's great, that's true.
Speaker 1:You know your stuff Well, I do. I'm just trying to make it sound like I do and you talked about shopping and all like.
Speaker 3:I am addicted to timu for sure, and I bought some eye patches from timu what I?
Speaker 1:what kind of eye patches? They're supposed to be 24 karat gold oh, like the under the thing, yeah, yeah, yeah, it did not go well, it didn't.
Speaker 3:No, my eyes were red as hell and swollen for a couple of days.
Speaker 1:Whatever, how, long did you leave them?
Speaker 3:on. I don't think it was like 30 minutes or something like that. That wasn't crazy.
Speaker 2:It should be fine. I think they're made in Taiwan or China or something like that.
Speaker 1:Yeah, just made out of melamine, I think pretty much Right, but I must have mixed it or something.
Speaker 3:I did something wrong because it did not or it didn't like me.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you might want to expect a little red eye. Maybe get it. I took the gamble.
Speaker 3:I know you did.
Speaker 1:For $3.50. It was almost worth it. I think it was cheaper than that.
Speaker 3:So what are you?
Speaker 2:going to do. How do they stay in business with all these deals?
Speaker 1:They're just mass producing stuff and it's just ending up on a beach somewhere somebody's. I have a thousand ducks.
Speaker 3:You have a thousand ducks? I probably do, I'm not even exaggerating what are you talking about, ducks? Like little. Uh, you know how I make the earrings yeah, oh, they're little duckies yeah, I got all kinds of ducks is that where you get them from?
Speaker 1:yeah, yeah, oh, that's a good thing, because you're buying them in bulk, right, yeah, I mean.
Speaker 3:I get rainbow ducks. I have white ducks, black ducks. You're going to think this is a joke. It's not. But I got these Jewish ducks. That's how they advertised them. So I was like, and they were such a great deal Knocking.
Speaker 1:This is Timu everybody, I'm not even going to touch that.
Speaker 3:I was like well, I got to get them, and they're just blue and white ducks. Oh okay, blue and white ducks, you're using them creatively.
Speaker 2:That's different.
Speaker 3:But they were advertised as Jewish ducks.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's nice to know that, because every duck not every duck is spiritual.
Speaker 3:And not every duck has culture and tradition Right. You want a duck with a nice background. I don't always want a.
Speaker 2:Christian duck Story. Duck, yeah, no. Christian ducks are like just they're uptight yeah. They're mainly mallards too.
Speaker 1:Yeah, well, those aren't even ducks, exactly, yeah, they don't know what the hell they are Like a lot of Christians.
Speaker 3:Really, I didn't know, you just blew my mind.
Speaker 2:Well, that's what I'm here for. That's one of the few things he's here for One of the few things I'm here for.
Speaker 1:Okay, so, yeah, so you're targeting the most thin part of your skin and it will age with time. There's also a lot of the aging that we see on our faces is not just on the surface of the skin, and we got to remember that I specialize in facial massage because I can really get in there and, um, loosen up the muscle, uh, you know lymphatic drainage, the, the fascia underneath that gets stuck. Like if you're repeatedly you know, repeatedly making a motion, eventually your skin will sort of create like a little adhesion where it sticks down a lot. You know, most of we, we usually see it like in the 11s or here, or like even with me, like I have parentheses from just making the same motion over and over again, right, so there's like it's stuck down.
Speaker 1:So it's not necessarily a cream isn't necessarily going to make that go away or serum's not necessarily going to. But you don't want to overdo it with your eyes, because it is the eye skin it does. It doesn't need that much, right? But you also don't want to let it dry out. You know, because you can, you know, I'm sure when your eye skin dries out, it just feels yeah, it's like terrible, yeah, and you feel like uh, cakey yeah, you know what I mean.
Speaker 3:Like crinkly yeah. Crinkly yeah, that's the word.
Speaker 2:I had this one right over here in my forehead. That's what like when I used to think a lot yeah I used to like get this thing and it'd be like this, like line those are thinking lines right there, but I don't. I don't think anymore, and that's just Problem solved, yeah, done.
Speaker 1:I'd rather it look like. I don't think I need to work on your face more, you do.
Speaker 2:It looks good. You need to change. We could spend all day. That's a whole other podcast. Oh, that's, that's a better podcast. I have, it's called the whole other podcast.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I just started it all right, so let's get back to this. Um, all right, so we're talking about the skin. The other thing, too, is when you're laying down, anything that you're having in your skin that's heavy is going to roll back. So you, it's going to go into this eye area, and milia are hard to get out out, those little white heads. I'm good at getting them out, but the closer they get to the eye, the harder it is for me to get in there. The eye skin is very spongy and so it's easier to get something a little bump out if the skin is tighter than if you can pull it like this, because there's no tension for me to get in there and get underneath it and push it out. And then also, I don't want to like stab you in the eye.
Speaker 2:That's also a good point. What you don't want to stab people in there.
Speaker 3:It was a good, not with a good point, thank you thank you no, I guess well yeah, not with a good point the bad point.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, all right. So let's see. Okay, dark skin does not. This is misconception.
Speaker 3:Dark skin does not need spf I knew that, okay, yeah, not that. But I just, I know I had a lot of friends growing up and, uh, they burned yeah, you know, and they get.
Speaker 1:They get a lot of pigmentation right, um, they get the. As a matter of fact, sometimes it will dark skin, will develop um, keloids and, like you know, a lot of stuff that we don't have because the melanin just sort of bunches up, um. So, yeah, so you, the sun is still the sun doesn't like anyone it doesn't discriminate, it does not no, absolutely no uva rays are kind of always coming at you. They're always going through your skin, kind of even no matter what time you.
Speaker 2:You just made this sign of the lord and on this sign of the Lord and the Holy Spirit, the son and the father, the son, the Holy Spirit.
Speaker 1:And what was the fourth one?
Speaker 3:Name of the father, son, holy Spirit, amen, that's all I know. Oh, okay, amen, yeah, the fourth one was amen.
Speaker 1:All right. So do you skincare? Uh, do use SPF. If you are a darker skin person, um, you're going to get less it's, it'll take less time for you to burn. I mean more time for you to burn than it would be for somebody like you and I. You know, if I'm out for 20 minutes, I'm going to get a burn without if I'm not protected. Um, those are the B rays. Though the B rays are the ones that burn you. The Arays are the ones that get in there and they actually, like they penetrate. What. What's your face? Am I in the face or she's in the face? I know, I was wondering, like, did I hit a?
Speaker 3:nerve, I just b-rays.
Speaker 1:I never heard of uva uvb uvc there's like yeah, qbc very cheap rays yeah um, but yeah, uvb rays are the ones that, uh, the ones that, uh, burn your skin. Uva rays actually penetrate your skin a lot deeper. They can get through glass. So what? Yeah, even if you're driving, if you're in your house, those uv, the b rays stop, but the a rays would keep going well, where are the d rays that we're supposed to get from the um?
Speaker 1:for the vitamin d. Okay, and they're coming out more and more, with people you know saying that, like you should be out for at least a few minutes and allow your skin with no sunblock to just get a little bit of vitamin that's why people are putting their buttholes in the air thank you for coming, you guys. We'll see you next week.
Speaker 2:It's the same visual if you're just listening or watching.
Speaker 1:It's like wait, but they are Please expand People sun in their buttholes. People, really, how do I not know this you?
Speaker 2:didn't know that it's on all kinds of TV and stuff about sun in your butthole, so that's like a very sensitive area to get all the D-rays.
Speaker 3:Right.
Speaker 1:Well, that makes sense, because you'd put drugs up there and that's you're going to get it.
Speaker 3:Absorb it quicker. Absorb it quicker Mark.
Speaker 1:why are you thumbs upping me with the butthole joke? It makes sense. You're saying it's good, it makes sense. Ever want that image repeated in this room ever again. Here's the thing you can say I want them in the green room, but not in this room.
Speaker 2:What about somebody like me who doesn't have access to? I have an apartment and I don't have access to the roof right. What if I were to set up a series of mirrors that refracted and was that? Will I be able to get enough of the sun ray into my anus?
Speaker 1:No, I don't, it would burn. Yeah, it would burn you actually, it would magnify.
Speaker 2:Oh, but what if I have ants walk across?
Speaker 1:I could burn the ants on my ass and then you just have little dots where the ants were.
Speaker 2:Right, exactly when the sun didn't get through. Wow, that's fascinating. That's a really interesting image.
Speaker 3:I think we're onto nothing. I think we're onto nothing. Yeah, but so what ray gives you the D?
Speaker 1:Oh, that's a good question. Wow, what ray gives you the?
Speaker 2:D.
Speaker 1:Well, I think at the improv D-Ray's there on Mondays.
Speaker 2:Dean D-Ray. Dean Dillray. Yeah, he's on Monday, so yeah.
Speaker 1:So which one gives you the D? I don't know, actually Maybe UVB. Why would they have to do that? Because you do have to go outside, which means it's uva. You can't get the vitamin d so you would need to be outside.
Speaker 2:So I'm going to say uvb.
Speaker 1:Now you do need to make a distinction when you're a darker skinned person. Somebody like sandro can won't make as much vitamin d in 10 minutes as you and I might right, so you got to sit out there for a little longer. You're not going to get burned.
Speaker 2:So you're, yeah, you're more efficient.
Speaker 1:We're more efficient because we're from what's your background.
Speaker 3:English, irish, northern.
Speaker 1:European, yeah, same with mine. Yeah, exactly, scottish Right. Yeah, all of the white ones.
Speaker 3:Exactly.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 3:I did have a and him. I don't know what my dad did with it, but my great-great-grandfather or great-great-great-grandfather was Cherokee. Oh wow, but that's just it. That's it, Just the one.
Speaker 1:I was told that too, and then I went on 23andMe and it was a complete lie, but I have a picture.
Speaker 2:I saw that.
Speaker 1:No, yours is probably true, I think, scientific, absolutely, yeah, yeah, oh, I'll have to do that now we'll do it just for fun. Yeah, I would like to do that for fun I found out I was greek, like 10 greek. Are you greek?
Speaker 2:italian he's italian, I mean it's only. But then I haven't done. I haven't done the 23, I think you should do it.
Speaker 1:I'm just curious. You're gonna probably have some african in there too, because they sort of like a sicilian yeah, they get it.
Speaker 2:They sort of mingle, co-mingle with each other yeah, well they, you know the business, the business together, the business together, yes, here's okay, let me tell you a little quick story.
Speaker 1:Um, before we move on, I um I did the 23andme looking to see if I had american uh, native american blood in me. Didn't, but then I found out that I had two sisters from two different mothers, from my father, who had already passed away, and one of them was what was?
Speaker 2:she Navajo.
Speaker 1:Navajo. She was half Navajo, so he had sex with a full Navajo woman and now my sister is half me, half Navajo.
Speaker 3:You're scaring me me because, let me tell you, if I did that, I might have a lot of siblings out there that I don't know about.
Speaker 1:I'm telling you it, it, it'll happen. There's a lot of people out there who don't want to pick up the phone. Exactly, and my dad was lucky enough to die before. I would have loved to have talked to him about that. It was after me nevertheless.
Speaker 3:But and then it does explain why he was always saying use a condom, and that pre-com gets you pregnant yeah, he knew his stuff yeah a lot of people did, a lot of people knew I had a I have a brother I didn't meet until I was in my 20s and who, through your Through my dad, my dad had him when he was 15, but he grew up as his grandparents being his parents.
Speaker 1:Okay, right, yeah, because your dad was so young, yeah, and then you met him.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I met him. I mean I haven't talked to him in a while, but I think he's good. Is he cool? If you're watching, stepbrother jessica thinks you're cool. Yeah, he was cool. Yeah, it was nice. He looked his legs. You could tell as soon as you got out of the car that he was my father's. Isn't that crazy? Oh, isn't that crazy, you see that and it's total stranger.
Speaker 1:And you're like whoa, you look like me and another person exactly, yeah it's hilarious pretty cool, unless you're getting caught for something you shouldn't do.
Speaker 2:All right.
Speaker 1:All right. So, yeah, this is mentioning about the okay. It basically is just saying what I said, that the UVAs penetrate deeper into your skin and they cause the visible. It takes about 20 years, 20 to 30 years, to see the results of the damage from the UVA rays. So just because you're walking out in the sun and you're not getting a burn doesn't mean that when you're 60 or whatever, um, that you're not going to see that Cause. That's when the, the cause, it's already altered. Your, your, your DNA and the cells are already, you know, doing what they have to do, and so then they're it's going to be weaker and as it gets to the surface, okay, it's going to be weaker as it gets to the surface, okay, just like you know how they say, like if you listen to loud music it's the same exact thing and then, 20 years later, you have you know.
Speaker 3:I used to go to the tanning bed.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I did too.
Speaker 3:How long ago was that I was going again at Planet Fitness for a while.
Speaker 1:I'll be honest, I might have gone to Planet Fitness too, but how long ago was that?
Speaker 3:Like two weeks ago. No, it's been a year or two Since I've done it.
Speaker 1:How often were you doing it, though? A couple times a week.
Speaker 3:But it's been a year or two.
Speaker 1:Yeah, but.
Speaker 2:I think in 18 years, you'll be fine.
Speaker 3:I just came from a family that Worshipped the sun and the beach and all of that.
Speaker 1:North Carolina. We got beautiful beaches they really do actually have very beautiful beaches, and people who are Northern European tend to want to be tanner than any other group of people, because it also hides a lot of stuff.
Speaker 3:I feel like when you're darker any marks or stretch marks I think you look thinner when you're wearing darker colors. So that makes sense that when you tan you look thinner.
Speaker 1:You look like you're more fun. You go outside, yeah, exactly when you see an older man or an older woman and they've got gray hair but they're tan, I think, oh, they're cool.
Speaker 2:It works with his hands. They've made bad mistakes. Yeah, they've made a lot of bad mistakes. They have stories. Yeah, they have stories, for sure.
Speaker 1:All right. So that's when you get the hyperpigmentation. It will show up way later, but there's things you can do to keep your skin healthy?
Speaker 2:Yeah, but there's a picture of you.
Speaker 1:They're not going to see this picture. It's an African-American gentleman with his eyes open, half closed.
Speaker 3:He actually looks like he's rolling his eyes.
Speaker 1:It does look like he's rolling his eyes. He's like whatever dude.
Speaker 2:That's a weird picture. Just for anything, I think it's probably a stock photo. That could be for anything. He probably didn't get credit for that photo, no, he didn't even get paid.
Speaker 1:It's probably for, like you know what. Let's not even look at it all right.
Speaker 2:Unless he gets paid for it, I don't want to watch it okay.
Speaker 1:So they people say wear spf 30 every day. I do and I don't these people I know everyone. But, um, I used to be like that person that always wore a hat and covered everything up, but now I'm lazy and I think I need a tiny little bit of the sun. So if I'm going to be out, yes, I'll put on something like a mineral sunblock, because the chemical sunblocks are not good for you. You're just baking them in. But I usually just wear a hat, so at least my face doesn't get burned.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I like hats now yeah. Especially now I feel like my hair's thinning too is your hair thinning. Yeah, well, I mean, I'm not judging, I have, uh, I have alopecia as well, so, oh, yeah, so you know, yeah, that's why, like, I've fallen in love with hats again it's not about the hat it's about what's under the hat I think that you're wearing a hat. She's wearing it right now. You look good with a hat.
Speaker 2:Yeah, she's great with that. Yeah, it's versatile. Oh, thank you yeah yeah, I don't look good in a baseball hat I was gonna say you, you'd look cute in a hat, but I think that like you get in your own head and people would look at you and go, she doesn't look comfortable wearing the hat with the baseball cap?
Speaker 1:yeah, and then they'd be like is she okay? I don't look like a baseball cap person, though, do I no? No I don't think so, I don't think so, I don't give that vibe at all.
Speaker 2:You could wear like uh, you look like, you wear like. Maybe like a jockey cap or something is that a crack at my height? No, not at all.
Speaker 1:I didn't think it would look adorable I'm gonna kill you and then you're gonna stand me out in front of the house. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2:But we don't have a lawn and I'm not racist.
Speaker 1:Yeah, oh, my God, okay. And then the last one, let's see. They have, oh, the skincare refers only to your actual. They call it a vanity regimen, but-.
Speaker 2:Not a regime.
Speaker 1:Not a regime, excuse me. So basically they're saying uh, and I do agree with this that skincare is not just what you put on your skin, it's like what?
Speaker 2:you do to your body yeah, because you know your.
Speaker 1:Your skin is the largest organ that you have and if you're dehydrated, if you're drinking alcohol, if you're using a lot of eating, a lot of sugar, you're going to break down the skin and it's going to be saggier and more damaged, uh, than if you took care of yourself and you know, proper nutrition and all that exercise I'm not even trying to be funny with this serious question.
Speaker 3:Yeah, do you moisturize your breasts?
Speaker 1:uh, I have been lately with avocado oil. I just leave it like on the side of the tub and then when I get out of the bath I just put it everywhere. Okay, I think it's good to I almost said to masturbate, hello, although lately I have been listening to my body, my body image, affirmations while I'm putting on the avocado oil oh yeah, yeah, I'm not going to tell you what they are. Yes, it's good to, yeah, moist. Oh yeah, yeah, I'm not going to tell you what they are, but, yes, it's good to, yeah, moisturize your breasts for sure, and even just the massage is really good too, it's good to keep your breast healthy.
Speaker 2:It's affirming yeah well that's another thing I'm thinking of, because you want to firm them babies up too.
Speaker 3:You know, Absolutely.
Speaker 1:Everything you do on your face you should really do like you know everywhere. But yeah, but for sure your boobs, your chest especially, or they call it, decollete your neck, definitely, you know. Wash out your neck, yeah, and do that.
Speaker 2:You can just hold it like that Is that a good exercise? And then you put your tongue at the top of your mouth.
Speaker 1:Actually, yeah, it is an exercise. He's known me so long that, yeah, you can actually do an exercise where you hold it and then you put your tongue against the roof of your mouth and press against it, so you're doing like a resistance exercise.
Speaker 2:You feel it engaging in here.
Speaker 1:And then the other one is double chin, I'll tell you real quick, since we're here is, um, you do like a kiss the ceiling, Um. So then yeah, exactly, and you hold that for 30 seconds. But the trick is you also want to pull down on your chest because the muscles all connect from here all the way down and you're going to feel that in your. Do you feel that like in your cheeks and your like your jaw? Yep.
Speaker 3:Here and here.
Speaker 1:Exactly, oh, right here. When those muscles shorten, that's when we get jowly. So do that every. If you do nothing else, do that every day, and then you can also add, like one to this side and one to that side. Do it every day, starting right now.
Speaker 1:Okay, I just did it, I know so you don't have to do it until tomorrow now, but you gotta hold it for. You gotta hold it for 30 seconds or you can do like 30 of the you know know, like like 30 kisses, you know. But yeah, it's better to. You just want to open this up Because when these muscles shorten, that's when it starts to be like that, to do like that yeah.
Speaker 1:And then it also connects. It's all connected and, as you just did it, you felt that all these this is your masseter it's all connecting down to all these muscles and so it just pulls it on down wow that is interesting. Yeah, man, I'd love to give you a. Uh, do a little face massage on you sometime. I think it feels really good too.
Speaker 3:I would love that. My it was freaking them dry. It was dry this morning my skin. I was like, oh, I should have been so exfoliated because I was having, like you know, peeling, uh-huh, oh okay, but I didn't you didn't exfoliate, no, so you basically put the moisturizer on top of your dead skin.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, right, that's okay. I mean, it's better than exfoliating and walking out the door with something on it, though, so yeah, you actually gave yourself a little bit of a barrier between you and the sun.
Speaker 3:There you go See, that's what I meant.
Speaker 1:That's it. Okay, all right, that's it okay all right. So that said tequila. Oh, is that something about tequila? Oh, I think it just. They were trying to be cute. Um, what does it say? Don't smoke, obviously. Don't do the earrings, uh you know alcohol, sugary processed foods, drugs and cigarettes um it's.
Speaker 3:Are you skipping over somewhere? I said, but tequila is okay, I'm looking for the tequila part nor can an eye cream undo the the five shots of tequila oh, these guys, oh, this is funny they thought they were cute
Speaker 1:right waka waka five shots of tequila.
Speaker 2:I think that's personal. I think that person who wrote that was speaking of themselves or their maybe their step uncle so I think we got through it all.
Speaker 1:so you know, you know, stay realistic, don't try to just. Don't just assume that just because you start using something, your skin's going to be magically better, but also research what you're putting on your face. Don't just buy something super expensive and assume it's going to work either Also believe in magic too.
Speaker 2:I think you should. You always believe in magic.
Speaker 1:Yeah, Anything that you believe, I think it adds you know intention to it. Yeah.
Speaker 3:You know what I mean. I think everybody don't give up on dreams, Absolutely.
Speaker 1:You know what I mean. Talk more about that, yeah, and then we'll wrap it up, oh dreams, yeah, well, I mean, martin Luther had one, I think.
Speaker 2:You're to examples of people who had dreams. Not even like don't fall, Always follow your dreams. This guy had one.
Speaker 3:I mean, don't give up on them either, like so what if you don't make it? You know you'll have fun trying to get there. It's a journey.
Speaker 2:I feel like, if you own, wherever you are and however you look and everything, like people don't question it. You know, there's just like oh, like that's how, that's how hipsterism started. Somebody just decided to wear that stuff. That looked like it was from a different decade because they that's just how they liked it. And somebody was like, oh, I like that, and just you own it, you own.
Speaker 1:I think it's pretty dope also, when you get to the end of your your goal, it's usually kind of just like disappointing. It's like, well, now what? Yeah, it's really everything you did from A to B that made your life, not the getting the goal. Yeah, I do want a pool, though, please, we're going to put that out there.
