Yeah, we're good to go.
Speaker 1:I've seen. I've seen your credentials have you. It's disgusting. I had to open his mouth and saw your credentials, my credentials.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:He's so stupid. I today's topic. I just want to throw it out there first, in case you're wondering what the topic is for today. Uh, we'll say it now. We're going to continue to talk, uh, and then we're going to bring out our fabulous guests. Um, but our topic today is skincare for kids and for teens. What is actually necessary?
Speaker 3:Okay.
Speaker 1:I get this question a lot.
Speaker 3:How do I I, how do I stop my kid from talking about a stupid face? That's the question. People usually say right, that's not what they say, but oh, what do people typically? Ask no and like, while they're getting work done on themselves. They'll be like by the way, is there anything I can do for my child's oily skin?
Speaker 1:yeah, they'll be like my, my, my son, like when katie came in, uh that's right.
Speaker 3:Her kid's like 11. She said that.
Speaker 1:Atticus got her. He was getting his first breakout. And what did I recommend? And I had to think about it for a second. I mean, I know what I would recommend if it were somebody I knew. But then I was like well, maybe I should do some more research, since I don't generally work on hypotheticals yeah yeah, I generally don't work on hypothetical people, yeah do you ever just go.
Speaker 3:Sometimes you're like you want to tell somebody and be like, well, you could do this. Be like I would just start with water, just start with just water, just put some water on it, and then, when you get to know it, you'll be like, oh, also dry the water. You know, like, as you start to learn what to do, you, you relay information because you don't want to. You're liable for this kind of stuff. That's absolutely the truth. Yeah, I got to be careful.
Speaker 3:Rub your face on steel belted radio tires and then, if it doesn't work, all the people spend all this money on tires and they're rubbing their faces on them. It doesn't do anything and then you're held liable. You know Cost liable. You know uh-huh cost money to install tires.
Speaker 1:So anyways, these are all just examples of what you were saying. Oh yeah, absolutely, those were so relevant too.
Speaker 3:I really like that you know what they say, open your mouth and say whatever say what's there? Well, you look really nice.
Speaker 1:I wanted to tell you thank you very much, yeah sandra's got his positive energy shirt on is, uh, his brody stevens, and it just happens to blend in with his pajama pants and the rest of the decor here.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I thought about I was wearing this shirt earlier and I started laughing, because sometimes I'll forget that I'm wearing it and I'll be in a bad mood and then, like I'll just be like people around me or wherever I'm like, oh, thanks for cutting me off, you know.
Speaker 1:And I'll have this shirt on positive energy it's like yeah, it's like oh man, I can't do that maybe it's one of those things where, like when you put the word on the outside of a glass of water, it will help to change the insides.
Speaker 3:Oh, that's right yeah, it's written over here, you are water. We're 80 water, something like that I used to watch bruce lee movies. Huh, bruce lee. Yeah, he says drink water. That was his thing. He does be like the water you drink.
Speaker 1:No, he didn't. No, he said be like water. Oh, be like water, right, all right, okay, right, yeah, we are water.
Speaker 3:Be water, be water, be water he was talking about specifically. I think, like you know, if you want to be cool, yeah, no resistance, no resistance, wet all the time. Come back later on some other time. Hard to find in California, hard to find in California, totally needed in the desert and it comes out of your pores Bee water, bee water.
Speaker 1:Do everything they should have a brand called Bee Water.
Speaker 3:Yeah, they should.
Speaker 1:And they can make a cute like a little green label and put a bee on it. I think now we're talking about ideas.
Speaker 3:This is really where we start to cook sorry, I just had some coke. Are you drinking soda again? That's what you are. I'm like I got a Mountain Dew. It's so funny. Whenever I see an adult drinking Mountain Dew, something's up. What are you addicted?
Speaker 3:to what city in Arkansas are you from? What? What city in arkansas are you from? Yeah, what city in arkansas? Why do you have to give so much money to your dentist? Uh, and what are you addicted to? Yeah, well, mountain dew, mountain dew, and something else too, because, like, mountain dew is just I. I think I'd rather have a beer at 9 am than a mountain dew. It's like, like, the mountain dew is like that's too early, that's too. I used to drink those. I would have the diet ones, though I would do the same thing. I'd have diet Mountain Dew and then I would have trail mix and I was like man I'm losing weight.
Speaker 3:I'm like, yeah, of course I'm not eating enough calories. Yeah, and it's just terrible for my body. It's a diet, diet, adrenaline rush.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it is diet adrenaline. Yeah yeah, mountain Dew's not good for you?
Speaker 3:I don't think so, and we're not sponsored by Mountain Dew, so no, everything from the beginning of us talking, except for hi, I'm Nicky Davis Jr, is going to be bleeped out.
Speaker 1:I feel bad because our guest actually hasn't quite arrived yet and usually he's sitting on the couch admiring us for our woody banter and for how well we work together?
Speaker 3:absolutely so, but the crazy thing is that we're gonna do this and then, um, when he gets here, we're gonna have to say his name again. Yeah, to introduce him yeah, so behind the scenes, stuff that people don't get to know it could be anybody we.
Speaker 1:What if we just did these intros? We're just waiting for somebody to show up.
Speaker 3:we have no idea who's coming. We didn't book anyone, are you?
Speaker 1:playing with my fingers.
Speaker 3:I'm just touching your hand because I don't know, I have fidgets. I need to fidget with something.
Speaker 1:I'll give you something.
Speaker 3:Your fingers. Yeah, yeah, that's it. You're disgusting, I know.
Speaker 1:I can't believe you and my credentials, yeah. So why do kids ask you questions about their face? Kids?
Speaker 3:don't ask me questions.
Speaker 1:Kids parents do okay, because the kids don't ask questions. They don't know what they're doing and their bodies are changing and and you know there's also there's certain things you don't want to put on younger skin right right you know, so we'll get into a lot of that stuff I totally get it.
Speaker 3:Um, I think it's about time we bring out the guests okay, yeah, I think so because I feel like, um, and you know, uh, it might be good timing yeah, I think the guest just walked in um hey guest yeah, yeah okay, yeah, you can bring him out. He's looking at us now through a fishbowl, come on in.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you just missed our witty banter our, our guest.

Just obviously you know there's a lot of male slots in this town.
Speaker 1:Yeah, because people you know they like to have their post office inside the house.

Speaker 2:But great, dave neal yes, hi, I'm so happy to be here I'm so happy you got here I've done these like other non-comedy podcasts and like just to be with comics is like coming, as it feels like I'm at home what kind of non-comedy podcast culture, stuff, but you know, just like things that are just I don't know yeah sometimes you care about, sometimes you don't like what's something you didn't care about? I don't know like megan markle's new show oh my god, yeah, not in a bad way.
Speaker 2:My wife loved it. Anything that my wife loves, yeah, I love. She loves harry potter. I now know what I can do if she needs something. You know Harry Potter oh right right, right, oh honey they have Harry Potter Yay, like I love when I so. She likes the new Meghan Markle show Great yeah. She loves period piece shows like the ones that I can't stand Awesome, when I'm out at a show that's your like, go for it, oh yeah.
Speaker 3:That's the best like. When I'm out, I go somewhere, I'm like it's nice to know that my girlfriend is home watching terrible awful television that I? I would just vomit 14 years of love is yeah, yeah, she likes it, it's just you know, it's just mindless stuff that you kind of you know you can kind of play with your head you know I'm good at entertaining myself yeah, I'd rather, rather than thinking you're at home, just you know, eating popcorn, watching forensic files, you know's a that's.
Speaker 3:that's a bit much. The popcorn, the popcorn. Yeah, you don't want to have carbs when you're watching murder shows.
Speaker 2:You know what's funny Cause like, so we moved out of here. But when we lived here my wife would call me, while she's stuck in traffic. And I'm like now you're making me be stuck in traffic you can't avoid the guy you see when you get home.
Speaker 1:Go call someone else, yeah yeah, yeah, oh, wow, the traffic's bad Like yeah yeah, but now she hasn't.
Speaker 2:so we had a baby in May. We moved to Nashville 14 months ago. When we got there, she hasn't put gas in her car yet since we've been there no way.
Speaker 2:That's how little she. She just like, she's at home, she's chilling, she's happy, she's watching the baby. And then her car. And then every two months we try to start it and it's dead. We charge it and then, who knows, maybe the gas tank's rotting. But it's just like such a different lifestyle from the la rat race where you're constantly just jumping in your car and going somewhere. Yeah, yeah now she's just at home loving it oh, that's nice.
Speaker 1:Yeah, to be happy at home. Oh, no please what are you interrupting?
Speaker 3:me for jesus christ. Unbelievable. So, anyways, where was I? Uh, skincare has been a huge part of my life and uh I can't. Well, you know what you take over, nikki. I feel like I'm always talking. You go ahead I like that.
Speaker 2:He's like behind you, yeah that's right, he hasn't been behind me.
Speaker 1:There's a hierarchy here, yeah anyways, um, so this is only your first baby, right? Yeah, okay, because it feels like she was pregnant for like two years it goes by, it's so fast, and it's 10 years ago yeah, every day is an eternity with a baby oh my god and I mean not in a bad way, like they get you.
Speaker 2:They get you with the hormones. You know, like she gets does the oxytocin through breastfeeding and I do it through play. So he just comes to me, he looks at me and you can just look at and he's 10 months old. But he's like yeah, we're gonna, yeah, and then I just start throwing in and he just knows and then I.
Speaker 2:So I have my like studio. It's about the same size in my house, my like podcast studio and it's got two doors that open up but they're on like magnets so they make this very distinct like noise when I open up. So every time I open up he just like pops up like a prairie dog. But if I leave and I'm not done yet, he doesn't get it and I'm like now almost he's like that that's so cute. I mean you shouldn't have, you should not have a baby to be happy like we were happy before. Some people like oh, it changes you, you don't. It should not be like the main course. It's like you know what I mean.
Speaker 2:Like you got to continue living your life and all of that.
Speaker 3:But boy is it like a different level of joy also don't make it, don it, don't make the main course, don't eat the baby. Yeah, no, you're going to have it. You want to have a side of baby.
Speaker 1:A boobie. A baby isn't a moose boosh, but it is a moose boosh.
Speaker 2:He bites like he bit my nose. He did.
Speaker 1:And he's got one and a half teeth and they are the sharp gum line, so you don't know what's there, oh my god.
Speaker 2:And then he just uh comes in oh my god yeah and then like my wife will be like you know. You know all of a sudden breastfeeding, then it just screams oh my god, yeah, chill out man.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that's awful yeah, it's something, but it's like insane. Like it's insane. You know, if she, if I I say this all the time and it's. I don't know if people know this, but if he's like malnourished in a certain way, his saliva communicates to her through the nipple to redistribute new formula and then she makes a version that's better. If someone coughs near her, she'll then produce some of like the antibiotic antibodies needed for him.
Speaker 2:It's like and I'm like what? And I'm like googling it and it's like yeah, and I tell this and other people like huh and like yeah, it's crazy, that is crazy. Yeah, so it can. You know a little deficient in this and it just changes it the nighttime breast milk. So like if you, if you're saving breast milk, you gotta like write what time of day it is, because god forbid you give some night, some morning, breast milk to him. At night it's like an espresso shot because it's a different batter.
Speaker 1:I wouldn't have even thought of that.
Speaker 2:But it's the I mean. And again, easy on me, because it's not my body who's getting like yapped on all day. Yeah, but you know she's breastfed this whole time, so we've only fed him a bottle like several times. So there's no like cleaning, it's actually the, the tit feed.
Speaker 2:Yeah, whip the tit, yeah, and I and I understand, like some people, it doesn't happen that way, but you're like it's like, it's like if you, it's like trying to start an old car for the first time, because, like it's like day one is he, is the milk going to come? Yeah, you don't know Right. And then it's that colostrum, which they call like liquid gold, which is like all like pharmaceuticals. Did you take a hit? No, no, I've tried it.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:But like what they don't tell you is again. Apologies, but I'm learning this Like they don't. I just assumed breast milk all comes out at one, like your pee. Yeah, it's like multiple, it's like a-.
Speaker 1:Oh, like a sprayer.
Speaker 2:So if he cries, she might just start start leaking yeah off of his tears.
Speaker 3:I wonder if, like, maybe there was a time when, like that was like evolutionary, where there was a time when women had multiple babies and they would just like squirt the breast milk in different directions in the baby's mouths because they could feed them all at the same time.
Speaker 2:I was watching like like walking I was watching like walking dead back in the day and there was like a baby that was stranded and one lady that the older lady gave the baby her boob and ended up breastfeeding it. I was like no, and I googled it and you're you're, if you've already breastfed before, you're way more likely to be able to breastfeed any other baby.
Speaker 3:Oh wow if you haven't breastfed, it still could happen, sending you signals.
Speaker 2:It's crazy, that's even if you're a zombie I guess I don't know, it's like, it's like that's that communal life we were supposed to be a part of, where you could like oh, you lose someone in the right. And then I hear, and then it's crazy, you're pretty.
Speaker 3:Just all these like signals give off. You like like we watch. You know we watch the office from time to time. You know, with millions of times when he's like, you know, if they hear a woman, hears a baby cry, then like, yeah, that makes sense, that like they start to produce milk because the kid could be hungry and that's why they say that cats make that noise because it replicates the baby crying yeah, oh, wow.
Speaker 1:Well, that makes a lot of stupid cats right.
Speaker 3:I know they don't know what the hell they're doing. They're just like all right that worked for them.
Speaker 2:I'll do it. Yeah, yeah, it's wild and it's like I don't have those tools. I got to like step up my game Like the first few months. You're useless.
Speaker 1:I'm just feeding her harvesting this fire, and he and that's so. Your job is just to try to provide and keep everything going. Keep the poop flowing.
Speaker 3:Yeah, yeah well that actually brings us to. Were you saying something interrupting?
Speaker 1:me again. No, no, I like where you're going with this that also brings us to today's topic.
Speaker 3:Uh, because of, uh, the stuff that you're feeding now, dave, the stuff you're feeding your baby, now you could be, you could be fucking her up, man. You've been messing I'm just kidding, you've been messing up her life, dude, no, um. So, nikki, quick question for you. Yeah, skincare for kids and teens what's?
Speaker 1:actually necessary I don't know, and I I picked this topic because you were coming today my son's very pale, so we use a bronzer just to.
Speaker 2:Yeah, dude you gotta we. We haven't brought him outside much. Yeah, because it was so hot in Tennessee when he was born and they can't be above 90 degrees weather. So it was like so hot that we haven't. We just, you know you don't wanna, you gotta slather them in sunblock. But, now they do like the full safari. You know, hat in the pool with like the shirt. Oh good, yeah, yeah because I mean it's hard enough but imagine like you don't recognize till it's too late.
Speaker 1:It's one thing if you get sunburn, a kid a baby.
Speaker 2:No, you're not sleeping that night or several, oh my god. No, no, that's awful and you learn. You learn like early on. He's like crying one night and we don't know what it is, and he's you can feel like he's gassy or whatever and you're like you gotta fart, you gotta get this fart out, yeah, and it's big deal. And then he farts and you're high-fiving because now you're going to go back to bed. It's like a big.
Speaker 1:It's like he has these little moments that you're just like.
Speaker 2:We've never done this before, we've contextualized like this experience, but now we're in it, wow, and we're kind of like old or for like parents, and all of Nashville's younger people are age, have their teens, are already out of the house because it's like you know, they're all you know, these old christian babies yeah, 18 or whatever and so we're just like old some guy even like like I was talking to some guys from like party, some like super bowl party, and he's like, yeah, like parents, your he parented.
Speaker 2:He said parents, your age, referring to me because he was like a parent and he's 25, and I was like, oh, fuck you like. He like was like, yeah, your generation.
Speaker 3:Oh my god, I didn't realize I was that that hurt yeah, yeah that's the humidity dude, the east coast humidity, and you gotta be careful people. They're stupid, I mean not stupid, you're just. You're smarter than them, dave you can you say, I'll just nod?
Speaker 2:yeah, you know what it is it's like when you live in a creative town. It sounds like so, like condescending, but every single person you meet has a pilot idea has a thing has an act has a side act Ride share driver. But there it's like. My local neighborhood has a four-way stop sign. That's super bad traffic at 445 to 515. And it bums me out to think that everyone's just moving at the same time and then maybe they're all taking their lunch at the same time and it's like good God.
Speaker 2:So you get to, you talk to some people and it's like and then everything's just like I can't get ahold of the bank after four, and so everything's just mailing it in and I'm like, are we waiting till we? Are we just waiting till we die, or?
Speaker 1:are we going to go like?
Speaker 2:do something.
Speaker 1:Maybe you should move back.
Speaker 2:Considering yeah, maybe I mean we moved there because we could buy a home, yeah, and we were going to have a baby and we lived in this duplex in East LA.
Speaker 2:You came to my old studio, right, but this was like a and I was like I can't have a baby crying, like just that feeling of like gotta be quiet because there's right. I was like we need a place. And then we looked at nashville and it's like you can get five times the size and all these things. It's near the airport and I did a gig there, I did like zany's and I was like, oh, there's a cool scene there. So like I'm pretty much getting as much stand-up stage time as before. A little bit of a different crowd, just a little bit different, but it's been a good experience that's great.
Speaker 1:Now, yeah, it's nice. I've heard nice things about it. I don't know if I want to live there, but yeah but it's also no state income tax so like you get these theo vons that are living there, like like balling out yeah, man saving hundreds of thousands a year yeah, I had no idea.
Speaker 3:His first name is uh the.
Speaker 2:Von something.
Speaker 3:No, I don't think it is actually.
Speaker 2:Oh, okay.
Speaker 3:I think it's Bill.
Speaker 1:Nikki, what are we talking?
Speaker 3:about today.
Speaker 1:We're talking about skincare for kids and Dave did address some of the stuff about baby stuff that sounded weird.
Speaker 2:Dave addressed some of our baby stuff, but breast milk is good for the skin too is it if it goes bad like? If it goes bad, like you can only have it in the fridge for 24 hours, or if you freeze it and you can still throw if he's got like a little eczema, you can throw it in the bath you can literally rub it on.
Speaker 1:That's amazing. Yeah, I mean or your skin too like there's just some laying around, it's just crow's feet oh, I love that because I have a little rash on my shoulder you should have brought him. Yeah, that would have been nice well, um, people often ask like, when do kids actually need to start using skin care? Um, so we'll start by age groups, so we're going to run through our little. Uh, okay, our content here. Uh, babies and toddlers, zero to five um, do they need skincare? Not really.
Speaker 2:It's just sunblock.
Speaker 1:It's just sunblock and I put a little extra thing. Most people overuse products with babies and I wanted to do because people say, yeah, use sunblock. The chemical sunblock for me is kind of an issue, especially when you have a brand new baby. Their skin takes in everything. So I wanted to put some alternatives to you know, just like putting like you know, copper tone, love it, or you know whatever. So like using like wide brim hats is great, which you had mentioned. That he, he what's his name?
Speaker 2:August.
Speaker 1:August. Oh, I love that it's when we procreated Was that?
Speaker 2:If you want to do the math, it's the month we procreated.
Speaker 1:Oh oh yeah, Real original stuff. You're procreation. That's cool.
Speaker 2:We carbon dated it back to August, july 7th.
Speaker 1:Carbon dated it, I did the math, my mom did the math.
Speaker 2:She was like is that what I said, mom, stop.
Speaker 1:Yeah, also. Also lightweight clothing is really good with like a UPF rated clothing.
Speaker 2:You've probably seen those?
Speaker 1:Have you seen those before?
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, we get them at Costco, the little like jumper suits they have.
Speaker 1:And you're fair too. You should probably invest in some of that, and Talia.
Speaker 2:Tasha, tasha. Oh my God, I knew it Tasha, shut up she's like weird Her skin. She is like, oh she, people think she spray tans. She could literally be in the sun for two minutes and be like exotically tan yeah, she's just one of those people.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I didn't want. I'm glad she didn't come kidding um seeking shade. Uh, it seems kind of obvious, but that's a great skincare routine, my mom kept me. My mom would not let me go in the sun, and play with the other koreans have the umbrellas they use. Yeah, if my mom had known about that, she would have done that, but instead she put me in the corner where no sun was, and then I would have to put the white sunblock on my face.
Speaker 2:But I'm glad now it never comes out right that sunblock is so thick yeah.
Speaker 3:It's just like yeah, Zinc deet is in uh, right, I mean geez.
Speaker 2:Well, now you get one like facebook post that tells you like sunblock actually causes cancer, like what do I know? That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 1:I know, but there are some carcinogens in you know, they're known carcinogens in some of these sunblocks. That's why I don't recommend them and let I will use some of them that block out the a-rays. Uh, if I know I'm gonna be out like all day, if we're in, like rome, and I decide I don't want to wear a hat, but, like for every day, I'll just wear a hat.
Speaker 2:Well, so, like Tom Brady says, he just drinks a lot of water and everyone made fun of him for that. And I'm like what is, what do I know? Maybe a lot of water hydrates your cells and it doesn't bounce, you know, I don't know.
Speaker 1:Well, it probably helps to protect your skin he literally says he does that to protect his skin.
Speaker 2:It's just drink a lot of water. Well, I'm sure there's more to it than that, but yeah, but yeah.
Speaker 1:I mean he's also has kind of like superior genes.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 3:Yeah, like your wife.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you guys are married, right, yeah, okay.
Speaker 2:I think we are. We got married in Mexico and honestly, we don't for a million dollars, we don't matters.
Speaker 3:We're not going to talk about sex or babies or procreation If you're not married if you, if you're not married. We waited, we waited until we got married. Literally.
Speaker 1:So mineral sunscreen is a big. I'm a big fan of that. Zinc oxide and titanium dioxide based sunblocks are really good, but the non-nano Okay, so that's a new thing. There was like nano technology for a while and everybody was using nano, nano, nano.
Speaker 2:Now we're no nano. Yeah, now we're no nano because nano goes.
Speaker 1:I think it like penetrates your skin and you don't want it. Gosh, you're just right, I know it's so much.
Speaker 2:And sunblock is so expensive. Now I get it at. Tj Maxx and I'm like this is probably expired because they sell like the, you know, irregular, everything. But if you go to like a CVS and try to get a thing of sunblock, the orange stuff, it's not going to be under $14.99. Like what? Yeah, so I'm using it like like I'll probably get skin cancer because I'm being cheap with it.
Speaker 1:Just get a shirt.
Speaker 2:And then, like someone has to borrow it, you're like what do?
Speaker 3:you do. You get half a bottle, $5. You get half a bottle or maybe a third of bottle. Squeeze it into a, into a spray bottle with some water and then just put it on yourself, Stretch it out Like over a couple, like a couple of years.
Speaker 1:I don't think.
Speaker 2:I don't think it'll make it. How many guys have been with afraid to ask someone to put someone? I'd rather burn to death than feel a little bit of sensation from your hands or be seen feeling a sensation from your hands.
Speaker 1:Um, that's like your joke about the lower. Uh, I'll never forget that yeah, the lower back, lower back. Yeah, it's like tell them I was like um, geez, how does it go?
Speaker 2:I was like it's about how, like, women are better at taking group photos and like I, um, I'm bad at group. I put my hand on the smallest guy's back and it was like a gay friend and he goes, don't be a fag. I was like man, yeah, we don't know how to hold, like how to hold.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's not, it's awkward. So, yeah it is you look uncomfortable right now, man yeah.
Speaker 3:I'm thinking about hugging guys, men, so it's fine I missed the check-in for the southwest flight.
Speaker 2:You got to check in 24 hours before and I missed it by a lot. I mean, this morning I was like, ah, shit, so I'm gonna be sitting middle next to like my flight here was next to this samoan dude, and I've already said this to someone else the moment like, if you ever like on the subway in new york, the moment you just like, get over it and just melt into the other person yep, it's not just. Most of the time.
Speaker 1:Everybody else is probably doing that, but we're from California and we like our space.
Speaker 2:You need it, but it's like the people that are afraid of that need that more than anybody.
Speaker 3:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Like melt into somebody. Oh man, yeah Some of them are nice people.
Speaker 3:They're very warm and physically and also, like you know, emotionally, great skin Great skin, physically and also like you know, emotionally great skin, great skin yeah, absolutely.
Speaker 1:Um, so natural oils is another one. Then I I was using this for a while. Remember I was using raspberry seed oil yeah and that's really good for protecting from.
Speaker 1:It's a um full spectrum sun screen sunblock. I don't know exactly how long you can be in the sun sun, but when the spf, usually it corresponds to the amount of time that you're allowed to be in the sun, which applies to the B rays, which most people don't know. So if you're, just because your SPF is 100 doesn't mean you should be out in the sun longer, because you're still being exposed to the rays that are not just they're not burning you, but they're getting through the UVA rays are coming at you.
Speaker 2:It buys you some. It's buying you some time time.
Speaker 1:It's buying you some time to not get blisters on the surface, but you are aging your skin underneath. Oh, because the a-rays can penetrate your skin and change your whole dna, like of your skin, like the skin cells and everything you know a.
Speaker 2:I don't know any of these are coconut oil. Is an spf4 is that right?
Speaker 2:yes, I knew it was some I had. I did this as a joke. I don't make any beauty routines, like whatever, but I do put on my own oils and I was. I made a tiktok or instagram video where I used castor oil, coconut oil, and I used like some, like masculine, it was like sandalwood, but it like smelled nice. I was like put that in there, yeah, and I did a few things. I made a quick video. I was like this is what I do. Oh, the other thing I had is hyaluronic acid. Oh, wow. So I had that from our dog, who has since passed he was like 14, but we had hyaluronic acid for him because it's good for their joints.
Speaker 2:It's the same stuff so you can buy vet grade hyaluronic acid, which is super expensive. When you buy the human version, it's like not expensive for the. And I put it all together and I was like that's what I use. This video took off, got like 8 million views and it was at the time when Instagram was paying a bonus, so I made like 1500 bucks kind of messing around All these dermatologists was, like this guy's, out of his mind.
Speaker 1:But then other people were like actually it's a pretty good mix. It is Because I kind of just like squirted it all into it. And I still use it.
Speaker 2:I use rosehip seed oil. That's a really good one.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's a good answer.
Speaker 2:Rosehip seed is stain your stuff, like if you put it at night.
Speaker 1:It's like you got to go like kind of light with it because it will like die like not permanently, but it'll like cut, discolor your little orangey, yeah, but it's like really good stuff, a lot of them too. You have to make sure that you use like another oil with it, some of like the more I guess I don't say volatile yeah, like a jojoba oil or something like that.
Speaker 1:Okay, yeah, that was the base like a vitamin e the castor oil and the vitamin e, though, is locking in the hyaluronic acid, and because most people they put on the hyaluronic acid and then they're like, oh, my skin's dried out. It's yeah, because it's pulled out the moisture instead of you got to lock it on, so what you did was perfect. And castor oil, yeah, it's super thick. I'll use it on my hair. I use it on my hair. It's great for your hair.
Speaker 2:It's I have. I mixed that in with like coconut, like thinner, like vitamin e stuff, because it is really thick, but it's used. You know, stretch marks, um, uh, in a bunch of bunch of other things like cramps and stuff like that. It's just like, yeah, and it's cheap and it's so you sell you all this crate. I had this one podcast sponsor.
Speaker 2:That was like 200 a bottle for this stuff and I was like I'm using it because they gave it to me, but I'm like god damn this no, no, it was like a mix of oils, oh, okay. Right, but and I'm like using it because it's whatever, but yeah, you could that whole batch of things I did was like the equivalent to like five bucks for a tube.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:When it was all said and done per tube. Because I'd like so much, because a giant jug of castor oil is like 10 bucks.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I know I love it. Castor oil is amazing. I mean, it's so viscous though if I put it in my hair, it'll be in there for the next two years totally, yeah, I gotta need like, you need like dishwashing detergent, yeah, like yeah, the kind that they scrub the the ducks for, like the um, what's the uh? Cameron diaz and the jizz in her hair. Yeah, oh yeah, yeah. What is that stuff called the it's blue right? No, oh no, that was hair gel, you're thinking of.
Speaker 2:Yeah, anyways, uh, yeah, I was thinking of the um dawn.
Speaker 1:Oh, yeah, yeah, anyways. Yeah, I was thinking of the Dawn, is it?
Speaker 3:Yeah, that's the dish soap.
Speaker 1:That's the dish soap that you have to use to get the castor oil out of my hair.
Speaker 3:Well, you use it if like a duck has oil on its back.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that's what you use it for. Use the clean animals. It's like 1920s or 30s, and then they would just send you home. I'm not kidding. You'd wake up like stuck to your pillow and they were like yeah, you got to use Dawn to get this stuff out. It's like that it is, but it looks good. That's like that, mad Men.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's shiny and yeah, it looks nice. It's probably kind of good for your scalp. You might've broken out too if you leave it on too long. Yeah, all right. What else we got? Um, so carrot seed oil is really good. It's these. They say it's not a replacement for sunscreen, but an extra layer of protection. I, if you're just going to be out for a few minutes, I think that's fine. If you're going to be out all day, I wouldn't subject a baby to putting a lot of that's just me a lot of heavy duty, chemical sunscreens on them.
Speaker 3:But what if people want to put heavy duty chemical sunscreens on babies?
Speaker 2:You said, that's just you.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 3:You know, but other people might like putting chemicals on babies. I'm sure a lot of people do. It counteracts the autism.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I like to say it's, they battle each other, that's right, the vaccines and the, and the chemicals and the oxides and the carcinogens. Yeah, we had the nano technology.
Speaker 3:We had the nano technology. They battle at the skin level. It's a fine line. It's a delicate dance really.
Speaker 1:Okay. So then there's also diet that you know. Foods that you eat can actually help you be more resistant to the sun. Drinking green tea is one of those things Wow, they didn't even put that on here. Tomatoes, watermelon Watermelon is also really good for hydrating your skin, leafy greens, um and it helps your skin to recover from some of the sun exposure that you've had. So that's for kids. So if you can get them to eat that, I'm sure you're doing good. Uh, young kids, six to ten. So this is coming up for you later that and that's the pro.
Speaker 2:That's the problem age, because they start running off. They're like squirming out of the thing, that's like when they're starting to get strong.
Speaker 1:You can't pin them down as easily.
Speaker 2:That's why the spray exists because they're like running away Nasty, expensive stuff.
Speaker 1:You see people willy-nilly spraying.
Speaker 2:It's like geez humble brag.
Speaker 1:So yeah, so just, you don't need a lot Gentle cleanser this is pretty much what I say for most Gentle cleanser. If their skin is dry, if they have, I guess, if they have eczema, there's other things you can do, but you always want to put a little barrier of something, depending on what kind of eczema it is, because some of the fungal infections with eczema can actually eat some of the oils and makes it worse.
Speaker 3:Isn't that what coconut, like candida, like yeast? No, it's the malassezia yeast.
Speaker 1:I think I'm saying that right. Wow, and it's a common one that we already have on our bodies. But if you have an autoimmune, I've had reactions to that with my like. I don't think I have an autoimmune disease, but just as I've gotten older I've realized that like it's triggered by stress, and then your stress, your body starts to attack itself. Like your immune system goes hey, what's that? That thing that's been on there forever and now it starts attacking it. And then, you know, I get like a rash or whatever.
Speaker 2:Isn't that so wild? Like Western medicine is all things we put from the outside in to fix us when these are all issues that come from the inside out, it's always, but they can't make any money off of the inside out fixes yeah, they won't deal with the gut. The gut is like no we'll slap some stuff on it to wait, but like we don't want to cure you, have you ever been into a dermatologist's office?
Speaker 1:yeah, that's the I.
Speaker 2:Literally I'm spending all this money on insurance and I finally got a mole checked out and they're like, yeah, come back in two years. I'm like it's throbbing. But I come from like the family where everyone gets their moles removed at some point. I'm like why don't we just do this preventatively, if they're all precancerous?
Speaker 1:why don't we just they wouldn't do it.
Speaker 2:Nah, she was like they're fine. And they say like just wait and feel it out.
Speaker 1:I'm like all right, okay, come yeah come back or yeah, and if you did have something they probably wouldn't be like. Well, what's your diet like? What's this like? What they would be like? Here's a steroid cream for you to put on yeah, and they do like some uv.
Speaker 2:They'll they like get in there. You know they they look at it all. But I'm like, yeah, it just feels like for that price I could have gotten a massage or something. You know. You spend all this money like I think I would have been better just going to a yoga class yeah, probably that's my health insurance plan.
Speaker 3:It's just less pissed off doctors can't, uh, they can't bill your insurance company to, like a meditation prescription, go meditate and, just, you know, be a little more calm. That's crazy. I'll bill you insurance 300, that's our. That's our doctor um. So I said that's our doctor, oh yeah, so moisturizer if it's needed.
Speaker 1:um, where are we again? Five, six to 10 years old, daily sun protection. Again, they are outdoors quite a bit. So I again, my personal opinion, is to put them in something that's got like a UPF in their clothes. But you know, just maybe on the more natural side there are some natural sunblocks that they are. They're mineral, they're not nano and they're not. Yeah, they're kind of expensive, but your kids are smaller so you probably use less of it.
Speaker 2:Surface area. Yeah Right, there you go. Yeah, they got the rolls, you don't have to put it in the rolls.
Speaker 1:Yeah, just go in the folds.
Speaker 2:But he does have like. It's like a. It's like those 1920s men's bathing suits that are all the way like babies are adorable because they do wear like full body suits like they figured it out. Let's just put them in the outfit and not have to but you know what the thing is is. I mean, this is kind of sad, but they make a lot of boys bathing suits blue, but if a baby's drowning, that's not the color you want no, so my wife is like she's reading about this.
Speaker 2:She's like we got to get him a yellow suit. They only make girls yellow suits, so he's got like a yellow and it doesn't matter. But but then he already was like looking kind of cute and girly. So everyone at the like at the pool we went to he's like oh, she's so cute as a boy we're wearing yellow to protect his life yeah, make yellow a normal gender neutral color did.
Speaker 1:Do you hear that?
Speaker 2:Come on, yeah, it's a market there for you, or orange.
Speaker 1:It's a joy for kids to look stylish, or not get lost in the ocean. Yeah.
Speaker 2:Kids are way more stylish when they arrive Floating around blending in.
Speaker 3:It's just another extension of how men never speak about their feelings. They always just go with no, that's just how my father did it.
Speaker 1:And they just continue. The baby blue man yeah, it's so weird.
Speaker 3:My dad did say that a lot all right.
Speaker 1:So sun protection for young kids, um was basically what we just said mineral sunblock. When you can protective clothing, um, this is saying they should wear sunglasses. Would you give your baby some sunglasses?
Speaker 2:yeah, I mean they're. It's annoying. You gotta like trick them with something while you put them on.
Speaker 1:It's like a cat. Same thing with our dogs.
Speaker 2:Yeah, exactly, you gotta like give them a treat and then, oh, I guess it sounds different. Yeah, they're adorable with sunglasses on. Oh my God. But yeah, I don't know. I mean, I don't know what that's doing to the eyes, like, is it good? I guess it's good, I don't know.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:They don't make nice kids' glasses. It's not like it's polarized, that's true, yeah.
Speaker 1:But they are cute. They are cute in sunglasses, yeah.
Speaker 2:Just me, boy wearing yellow with his giant, just like such an old secretary, like from old Hollywood, yeah.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so you want to do, want to protect their little young eyes because, uh, you know you can damage your, your, the sun will damage your if you're. You know, especially kids are always looking up into the sun.
Speaker 2:Yeah, eclipse.
Speaker 1:Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 2:When Trump did that and everyone made fun of him. I'm like I feel like we've all been like yeah, I mean we all. I never even thought about that.
Speaker 1:All right. So preteens we got 10 to 13 years old. So this is usually when the moms start hitting me up Like what do I do for my kids when they're a preteen and they start getting, you know, oily skin? They're getting breakouts, sweat related stuff. It usually will show up like around the hairline, and so a lot of it's hormonal too. If they're breaking out at that age, especially with the boys, well, on both of them, um, so you want to do another gentle cleanser, nothing harsh, um, and a lightweight moisturizer if they needed sun protection, blah, blah, blah um. But I think what I would say, oh, because then they talk about hormonal, um, yeah, let's just how cruel is acne when you're a teen is if it's not hard enough.
Speaker 1:I didn't get it. Did you get it out?
Speaker 2:Yeah, and I found out I was chugging like pints of milk cause everything was like milk's good for you and I was like I love milk, I was drinking milk just nonstop. And then I'm like a virgin, you know chubby milk zits. And then I'm like oh, I don't need that. And then it clears up. No, it might have been hormonal too. But like well, there's hormones in the milk too.
Speaker 1:The milk's terrible for you, it's so bad and it's so bad for your skin. I usually with that one of the first things I tell people and when they have like little, those little um, hard and milly under the skin, like I'm like, do you, are you a dairy person? And they're like, yeah, I was like, well, cut the dairy and see what happens. She just doesn't do it to me.
Speaker 2:But I think, yeah, if you have that issue, cut it all out and then see what you can do. But milk, heavy cream I drink now, but the money?
Speaker 1:that's our version. I was every celebrity that took crypto money they all took that crypto money and then it went sideways like it was all right.
Speaker 2:Yeah, they got the milk blood on their hands milk blood I like what were they doing to us?
Speaker 1:yeah, big milk, you know they're making milk.
Speaker 2:They're making really big milk that might be the most successful campaign of all time probably, and it was his most disgusting ads. They didn't even right. They just put some like paste on them.
Speaker 1:Oh, that's so gross, got milk, so suggestive. And there I am just a virgin and everyone's like, oh, he's so brave, he's still a virgin.
Speaker 2:I'm like this ain't a choice. I got acne and chugging milk. Oh my God, that was my skincare routine. Yeah, exactly, you didn't get to go outside.
Speaker 1:So I would say when people, when the kids are breaking out, that's usually when the, like I said, when they're bringing something with like a gentle lower dose like salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide, like you know, they would probably recommend you're kind of in the same age range as actually you guys are probably close to the age, but do you have like clearasil and stuff like that?
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Okay, yeah, actually you guys are probably close to the age, but did you have like clear seal and stuff like that? Yeah, okay, yeah, it's got that little salicylic acid. You're saying, yeah, I think benzo, yeah, and it helps to like dry it from the inside out and you just want to put just like a little bit on pit people.
Speaker 1:People have a tendency to like put is witch hazel the same which hazel is is slightly drying and it's toning and it like causes like it to sort of close up um, but it's, it's good. Yeah, it's a good way to to degrease.
Speaker 2:So do you become a skin expert through time? Because the longer you're alive, the more it's proven you got great skin right? Yeah, cause if you're like 20, some Latino 20 year old can't be like hey, this is what I do. It's like you're Puerto Rican.
Speaker 1:I see it all the time.
Speaker 2:Yeah, there's 20 year olds giving advice when you're on the the, the back end I'm 57.
Speaker 1:I know it's amazing.
Speaker 2:Oh, so you were talking about me no, no, I'm saying yeah you personally, I'm saying it's impressive that you can like spend all this trial and error and just know what works and like figure it out I like feeling confident in that.
Speaker 3:It makes me feel good, yeah, when you see those like things with those things with Kylie Jenner or whatever, like their billboards with their skincare and you're like yeah, but you're also super young You're 12.
Speaker 2:Some 17-year-old being like here's my skincare routine. It's like all right, come at me after three kids. Talk to me when you've seen some things, yeah like the sun.
Speaker 1:Yeah, like not the dermatologist, not the plastic surgeon, all right. So over exfoliation is bad for kids, it's bad for everybody really. It will dry out your skin. So I recommend with kids, if they're having breakouts, to exfoliate with something gentle, like a scrubby kind of thing, very light, not the apricot scrub that we grew up with.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I don't.
Speaker 1:I still use that you do on your with yeah, I still use that. You do On your face yeah, I go hard on it. I don't know.
Speaker 2:They used to say that it would have like that little Everyone told me, because it's got like crushed walnut shells. Yeah, and they're like this is terrible for you and I'm like I've done it for 20 years. Well, your skin looks fine, but maybe men have different skin than women. They do have different skin For sure, like men are kind of just like you know, just rub, you know yeah, well, your skin looks good.
Speaker 1:Well, thank you, yeah, 75 years old.
Speaker 2:Oh my god I would never have known 40 in two months are you really? Yeah, and I'm like let's just hold on, you're doing great.
Speaker 3:Hold on to the hair yeah, I'd rather take good hair than good skin hell yeah because you can like good hair can cover a multitude of mistakes why do you think I made a shitload of terrible decisions in my life?
Speaker 2:You can tell when you're five o'clock. Shadow. You have nice hair like your shadow stick.
Speaker 1:He has amazing hair. You can't find a scalp and you do too.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's there. I mean it's holding on. You know it's like either you lose it I think for the most time like early twenties it starts could lose it for other reasons. But now they got these hair replacement things. They're just sending these guys to hungary, right?
Speaker 3:what is it? Oh yeah, is that surgery?
Speaker 2:I think it's a yeah or turkey, one of those countries they have like a package. Johnny mitchell did it. You know, johnny mitchell, he did.
Speaker 1:Yeah, oh my god and others right, yeah, they yeah producer mark has got his mouth agape yeah, you go there.
Speaker 2:They put you in like a five-star hotel and the whole flight on the way back is guys, you know, they take the hair from like the back of your head. Put it up here implant it. And then they, and then it grows back.
Speaker 1:But it looks weird because it always grows in like a weird direction.
Speaker 2:Not as weird as a shiny ass. You know empty hair. Yeah, and they do that and that's why, like every, like Elon Musk and even Steve Carell- I love Steve Carell musk and even steve carell.
Speaker 1:I love steve carell. He was balding episode season one. I mean he must have because I know they fill it in sometimes because the only other option is taking like anti like pills that get rid of your boners right there's like no in between.
Speaker 2:Isn't that crazy? It's not even a side effect.
Speaker 3:It's proven theory. If you can't get an erection, your hair will grow. That's how like the body works. It's like when your other senses kick in. So if I took a pill, then it got in a boner my hair would grow.
Speaker 1:It's not even a side effect that is funny I was like which one of us is gonna call you again. This is good improv this is yeah, we like to teach bad men. Don't talk about these things.
Speaker 2:No, no, but you go on one of those flights. If there was a, a LAX, I don't know if it's Hungary, wherever it is, it's Hungary or Turkey, it's one of those. You see the flight and you'll see the scars coming back, and then they have to do it.
Speaker 2:And then, just like tattoos, they put like a plastic, you know, it's all you know. And they come back like that of women have the they'll put their nose thing on when they get their nose done or whatever. It's the probably the most harmless. I mean, I don't know the specifics, but it's like five grand and you go do it and they just do it cheap there five grand is cheap.
Speaker 1:I'm just throwing numbers out. I don't know.
Speaker 2:But like they just do it and it's like, just like a lady who might get breast implants is going to get a bigger tip, you're going to walk into the thing and and be treated a different way. That, absolutely that's just the way people work. Tall people have a better chance of becoming a CEO. It's true, because people are. That's how we see. And then that's like some fertility thing.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, I don't know. Yeah, no, good hair is. Is David Spade, I think, had something maybe. I think he was using a wig.
Speaker 2:Oh, was he yeah, or extensions or something? Did he get a scalp?
Speaker 1:transplant. I don't know. I don't know Something I feel like he talked about it.
Speaker 3:maybe Was it a head transplant.
Speaker 2:So I don't want to like call him out on something if that's not true. No, I'm not going to call him out on that. If anyone wants to use my promo code, dude, it's like you gotta just own it, like yeah whatever, that's so fun. Well, he was kind of blonde, right yeah, but he was like starting to go, like you can tell, but blondes usually go go.
Speaker 2:Uh, yeah, blondes usually go bald and sometimes the hair is thinner, so like yeah you can see through it a little quicker, oh, yeah, totally, you can see through it.
Speaker 1:Yeah, go spend the money. I would do it. If I was a dude, I would totally do it.
Speaker 2:In fact it's it's actually a good insurance plan to know like, hey, if this stuff, if we do lose it, we'll just go and get it done. Yeah, I'm the same way with testosterone.
Speaker 1:Do you take testosterone?
Speaker 2:No, but I want to get my blood tested, like this year, so I can see where it's at and then just try to replace it to the normal level. I don't want to be like, but my fear with that is do you then start taking it and then shit starts to go weird in other places?
Speaker 1:right. See, that's what we were talking about with.
Speaker 2:Uh, sandra was saying like um, you don't, you know, you can lose hair if you take too much of that too right every one of my friends growing up like in, like my college buddies, that like this, my one buddy he had like hairy, everything was hairy, but he's bald on top and I'm like it was just like he.
Speaker 1:Almost I feel like he overproduced and then it didn't stay I think, and I never had hair, but I got a full head of hair.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, I don't have like chest hair, like I'm not a hairy guy.
Speaker 1:Maybe this is just like anecdotal, but I think it's like a different testosterone, like dht or if I'm not making that, making that up something like that.
Speaker 2:There's dhea, but it looks like burt kreischer like that whole community started doing it because they're like, yeah, they're at that age where it's like, yeah, you're gonna. Just all the benefits are just improved energy level.
Speaker 1:He's just taking you to your younger age right if you don't overdo it if you don't overdo it, you know, so like finding out what that number is did it affect his belly at all. I don't know I mean it's supposed to like help you jack.
Speaker 2:That is he what he's a very strong oh, I've not seen him benching like 350 he's insane, he's a good a spokesperson for it that's just like a dude who's like past his prime. He like shoots the ass and then he's like ready to go.
Speaker 3:Dude, get your teeth but he's got a lot of visceral fat.
Speaker 2:You know that's a bad thing does he still yeah okay oh, he drinks a ton and all that like yeah, because all that goes here. But he's also probably a bad example of like because it works for him like he can. He's still kind of like an energy energetically he's like a beast. Yeah, this whole trip I had zero alcohol, like I don't even drink anymore yeah because it's just because I can't get up like I'm busy, I'm diet cokes and coffees you know.
Speaker 1:So it's like, not like a thing, it's just like I gotta work. Yeah, you didn't, he was mentioning but uh, earlier, you've done 11 podcasts since you got here yeah, so I do two a day my own, and then I did five other people's podcasts.
Speaker 2:Oh my, god like.
Speaker 2:I went, you know, right off the plane, huntington beach to burbank to marina. It was just like not a good schedule, wow. But I came to do juicy scoop, which is really big in my niche they're like 20 times my size and certainly, and sure enough, the morning after I did it my sister texted me like dude, everyone's telling me you're on this show, so it's just like it's good. You know, like it's good to like. I was like it's worth coming to, yeah. And then once I booked that, I was like I think you saw that I was in town and absolutely I didn't even know you.
Speaker 1:You told me because I had asked you to be on the show a long time ago.
Speaker 2:Yeah, and you and I was like I'm not in town and I hate to zoom in because it's just if you don't have to, yeah, it's way better and then I had no plan to be here till like three days before my flight and I was like I booked a last minute flight and just booked a few things and we get the the last is the best best for last. Yeah, for sure last all right.
Speaker 1:What do we have to go through before we're done with this thing? All right makeup and skincare, how to prevent breakouts, um, when to see a doctor? I don't know. I don't know that we need to talk about that. Like, yeah, if they, if you went to see a dermatologist, I guess, when you have severe acne, then there's, there's more like, um, what's the word? Like just more serious treatments, but like, yeah, accutane. Unfortunately it is really really hard on kids emotionally too.
Speaker 2:Like yeah, like Google that plus depression, yeah, and suicide and suicide, exactly, and like, and then you cannot be in the sun hell. No, it's like bad liver bad, just get out. But it also works wonders. It does so like what's worse depression, taking that and then enjoying life, or having a chronic acne through your pivotal teen years I would take it for like six months.
Speaker 1:if I had to have taken it maybe and then if I didn't, if I made it to the end, then I would stop, hopefully. I mean, it shrinks your, you know, it dries everything out, so it has to affect your glands too. So that's gonna affect you, know, your. Even your pituitary gland, I'm assuming, is you know?
Speaker 2:know, they're all glands, sebaceous glands are all glands, well made up of glands and what's so sad when you're like that age, when you're 16, you know, you know the kid that's got the issue and then I mean, in the end it's like kids are brutal and maybe they're I'm sure they're nicer now no, no, I don't think my tiktok videos are like people with chronic acne and then they're like all right, we're gonna take this.
Speaker 1:I'm like subscribing because I want to see how you do. Yeah, I want to see progress.
Speaker 2:Oh, that's cool and it's like yeah, but it's like well, wow, you know that at that level it's like that's crazy I had.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I remember in high school there were there was a boy and he was so sweet and nice and like he you could tell he was. He was handsome underneath but he literally had pimples on top of his pimples. But I bet you he turned out to be like really successful in life.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but he probably doesn't make eye contact with anybody, maybe not.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's bad. I know it's really hard.
Speaker 2:I was that way. I had like crooked teeth. My upper, my bottom teeth are still crooked, but I don't care. But my upper teeth I care. They like grew too fast. And in college was like when Invisalign came out and I took it and came back a different person.
Speaker 1:Wow, I really did. I wasn't smiling.
Speaker 2:You'll see people like kind of like not smile. It's just like that translates to another level. So like it's not vain to take care of yourself. Hell no. To like want to be, like, to want to smile and have white teeth, and you know, it's like that's that's a good thing, that's like that's going to improve your, all the doors that open for you in life.
Speaker 1:Absolutely. To an extent it shows you care about yourself.
Speaker 2:Everything can go too far, right, well, yeah. You start to you are in Los Angeles, so yeah, which is also another tragedy to think that you just one little thing to fix something and then that thing and the next thing, you know, you're just like yeah.
Speaker 1:It's easy to get myopic about like, oh, look at that, I just a little bit of this a little bit of that.
Speaker 2:Myopic's a great word, yeah, because you're up close, you're not looking at the big picture, you're only seeing the one thing You're trying to like fix a Monet, each little thing, and then you come back and it's like ugh.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it doesn't all work together.
Speaker 2:Now it looks like a Picasso. That's funny.
Speaker 1:All right, so let's see if we wrap it up here. I'm just pretty much covered it, so the recap is just keep it simple. Basically, um, age appropriate, don't fall for the hype. I guess, um, you want to make sure that it's, it's a healthy way to to, you know, don't? You know, don't, what is not healthy? Uh, don't get, let your kid get super sunburned, I guess I don't know yeah, that's a good point, the nose that nose will get it yeah, you know yeah I, my whole, my, you know, playing baseball.
Speaker 2:You're just sitting in the outfield here up white and then just burn, yeah, burn, because I'm from new england, right, and you just have that like march, just the sun hits you and you know for four months of that and you, yeah, or like the farmer's tan on one, you know when you're or not, farmer, the trucker tan when you're driving, which is less now because we have air conditioning.
Speaker 2:But yeah, I feel like that was a thing. Oh, that's, yeah, no air conditioning. I used to drive work and I'm driving this uh, golf carts in santa monica and the my, yeah, my left side would get a roasted oh my god, roasted like nice.
Speaker 1:I mean, yeah, because they're open air cars and you're just like stuck in traffic driving tourists around, just boiling by the way, do you know that you can get sun rays through your windshield and your windows in your car? That's crazy. Yeah, like the, not the burning ones, but the ones that will age you the fastest. So we always get. I always get. Even if I'm leasing a car which I'm not, but I was before I always get all the windows tinted with the, and even in the front I get like a clear UV protector.
Speaker 2:I got a dark tint, but I don't know. I'll have to check.
Speaker 1:It probably has a good UV protection on there. But yeah, definitely check it out, especially if you're putting the baby in the back seat.
Speaker 2:Yeah, we got the sticky things that-.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah.
Speaker 2:Like the UV, those are great.
Speaker 3:They have cars now. I think it's so cool. They just have like little like shades that are built into the car doors. Yeah, yeah, that's like yeah when you're like the nice town cars have those right and like the suburbans and stuff.
Speaker 1:Yeah, dude, I don't have one but these new minivans are insane.
Speaker 2:Like they've got like the. They'll like have a screen for your eta for the kid in like a cartoon. It'll be like they're in 13 minutes. It'll like show you a gamified when you're gonna get to know. They don't have to ask I was gonna say.
Speaker 1:That's literally the type of thing that's like you know what get this, get this, get the, whatever the you know pacific, whatever it's called that's perfect yeah, because it used to be like you'd get.
Speaker 2:You'd get someone on cup holders now it's like yeah all right, these brats, I'm gonna spend the 75 grand to get this and it looks, and it's this and it's a minivan, but, what you know, the door is open that way where, when you have a kid, you're like I'm no longer dinging up the car next to me.
Speaker 1:Oh, my God, oh yeah. No, it's a full entertainment center too inside there, I'm sure.
Speaker 2:We're doing like no screens for our kid. So, unfortunately, that wouldn't help much, but I do think there's a difference between seeing a TV that tells you when you're going to get there versus interaction Like no, no, kids should allow a screen in their hands.
Speaker 1:Okay, gotcha yeah.
Speaker 2:That's crack cocaine. Oh yeah, and I'm not shaming people, it's just horrible and that's what they're finding out. That's the suck-a-lock version of do not do that.
Speaker 1:I'm sure it triggers dopamine issues.
Speaker 2:It sucks it out of them. Yeah, and serotonin, yeah.
Speaker 1:You just need to have puppets.
Speaker 2:Puppets, puppet, literally puppets.
Speaker 1:they make, they make boards a board with latches on it, so a kid can like dick around in the car. Oh, that's, I was just making that up.
Speaker 2:No, it's true I love that do dads, do dads just in new things, because you get dopamine from new things.
Speaker 1:You got to cycle things in and out that's a new, but not too much all at once what.
Speaker 2:You can't have. Too much shit for a baby. It stresses them out three toys I'll get you a new one next week and you cycle it in and then you know, because they you know they get bored but also like overstimulated it's. It sounds like a lot, but it's like that's how it was in the in the old days. Right, you know what? I got a. He's got a wooden xylophone. He loves this thing. It's a. It's a llama, that's got a xylophone and some things. And then, sadly, you see the and you know of course, of course, yeah, of course, the kid's going to shut up with an iPad in front of him. You're also sucking out his happiness.
Speaker 1:You can't replace it fast enough. You can't. I know it's so sad.
Speaker 2:And people get triggered because they're addicted too. But if you're an adult we can talk about it. A child doesn't know any better. You wouldn't put a stack of brownies in front of them all day.
Speaker 1:No, then they'd be, craving sugar for the rest of their life it's, it's wild and he'll like come after.
Speaker 2:We don't let him touch our phone and we try not to be on our phone near him but like, come on, you know you're still gonna right, yeah things.
Speaker 1:But yeah, anyway, that's side tangent no, I mean, I think that's that's very relevant. Yeah, I mean. And also the blue light from the screen alone. Is that it's not good for their little skin? Yeah, it's not. It's not good sugar it's all sugar it is Same.
Speaker 2:Thing.
Speaker 1:Well, I think we covered pretty much all of it.
Speaker 3:Keep kids in a cave.
Speaker 1:Yep.
Speaker 3:Don't let them come out. Do you do this?
Speaker 2:every episode, or am I like? Was this tailored for me, or is this just your?

Speaker 1:That's what our producer was saying, something like that, yeah.
Speaker 2:No I 99 is a huge success.
Speaker 1:I don't even care what happens honestly with this, I just love doing it so much Most podcasts should quit before seven episodes. Yeah, that's probably true too.
Speaker 2:I've done some that never even aired. They never made it to my episode.

Speaker 3:I if it's not getting like a reception like the beginning, wherever.
Speaker 2:I just know that I keep doing it and it's always fun. Yeah, it always ends up. People end up breaking you, end up like kind of cutting loose and they give you enough time to to get to that point.

Speaker 2:We met like so long ago. Podcasting wasn't really a thing.
Speaker 1:Maybe it was like a niche thing, but it wasn't like yeah like you wouldn't give it a credit.
Speaker 2:I remember when the first time someone used a podcast as a credit and I was like, okay, yeah what and now I can draw more than someone who's done Conan five times, because that just doesn't matter. No, that's true. This is a better, higher bandwidth of like connectability to somebody.
Speaker 1:I like to just say it so that people will tune into it.
Speaker 2:Yeah.

You're gonna need to love it and be an expert at it and then bring all that stuff you learned in comedy and be interesting.
