hi, welcome to cousins honestly, openly discussing everything spicy welcome to the chodes I joined you. I joined you. I heard your little chirp. No, like it's all shy mine was longer today I know she held her vocals it's all this practicing, all these.
Speaker 2:Okay, what's? Six months, seven months of practice, right?
Speaker 1:would you say?
Speaker 2:20th episode. This is the 22nd. Yay, what's my favorite number? Really, that's my best friend's birthday. I thought it was three, or that's your lucky number. Well, both three two and three. Good to know, dude, it is freaking hot already. Remember last time I said, imagine we were recording at noon. Now we're recording at noon.
Speaker 1:Now we're recording at noon and suffering the consequences for that. I have an ice pack on me right now, since we can't have the fans on, Bro, that's smart.
Speaker 2:I should have done that oh yeah, I'm like hugging the thing, dude. Remember when I used to live at latia's house, in that little room that had literally no ventilation, I used to freeze water bottles, like the smart water bottles, and I would literally have to sleep with those under my neck like a fucking pillow because it was so hot in there that's literally what I'm doing.
Speaker 1:I'm melting the ice pack because it's, it's like, like crackly because she's hot.
Speaker 2:exactly the struggle, man, the struggle. How do people do it in podcasting studios? Do they not have ventilation or it's just they have ac? They have money, probably the audio is they have people that fix the audio.
Speaker 1:We'll get there. We'll get there. No, we're gonna get there because we need to get this AC thing going on.
Speaker 2:I'm just waiting.
Speaker 1:And the video and the video podcast.
Speaker 2:I know, I think for a bit. Yeah for a video podcast girl. It's a little ways away, but we'll get it done eventually, like that podcast um that I sent you. Dude, they're fucking funny, those girls that speak in spanish that are like from monterrey, mexico. I love them, and their podcast like setup is so cute. It's all pink in the background. They wear cute hats one day. One day, yes, one day. But anyway, babe, how you been, how's your weekend?
Speaker 1:going this weekend. Oh yeah, my mom's birthday happened, right my niece's birthday happened. Um, it was good. We I took out my mom and her sisters my aunt to go shopping. We had breakfast together. Nothing like out there, but it was still fun and I'm my mom loved it. She was happy. And then for my niece, I made cupcakes for her classmate. I got pictures of a bunch of kids with frosting on their face and I'm sure their parents hate me for that but that's cute.
Speaker 2:The cupcakes came out really cute. And then I saw the video you made for your mom. I was like, oh, that's sweet. She was living her best life. Happy late birthday to latia. I sent her a message like early in the morning and I was like happy birthday, tia. May god bless you. I mean you have many, many, many more years. And then she replied saying like gracias, mija, te quiero mucho. And I was like, oh, oh okay.
Speaker 1:Well, I was gonna say please don't tell me she's responded shady, my dad, I guess, sent her the same similar message, but you know that's her ex. So she said gracias igualmente.
Speaker 2:And I was like oh god no, she wasn't shady to me, ruth ruthing oh my god, yeah, that's, good I'm glad she was nice.
Speaker 1:Yeah, she was sweet. But yeah, then she complained that her. She complained that she got flowers and she was like it looks like a damn cemetery in here. I'm like this lady and this is why people ask me would you get your mom for mother's day? What'd you do? I'm like nothing, because this lady's so messed up, but she's 60 now oh, it only gets better from here, girl um I got.
Speaker 2:So I thought this was a cute idea, okay. And I got my mom just randomly. I saw this fucking thing on t because you know, I spend my days on TikTok. It's like, um, what you call it it's, it's a book, but one of those books that you're supposed to fill up, like you have, you're supposed to write, and they come with prompts. But it says mom, I want to hear your story.
Speaker 2:And so I got her a book and I got one for my grandma. Obviously, I can't give it to my grandma yet, but, um, I I gave it to my mom and she's like I know, I don't want to do this, I don't want to be writing in this, give it to your grandma. And I was like no, I got her one too. And she's like well, she's gonna do better than at this, than me, because I don't like writing. And I was like I don't care, I want to hear your story, so you better write on it. And I'm like do you have anything better to do? And because she loves fucking playing games on her phone, she's like I have a tournament to finish. And I was like oh, no, no, no, no, dude, the tia she's also, hmm, something else and I was like, really, that's more important to you. And she's like I only have a couple of days left to finish. And I was like, yeah, and then another one starts. And she's like, exactly, I don't have time. And I'm like, ma'am fraterna man.
Speaker 1:What the fuck game is this?
Speaker 2:he's trying to catch all the pokemon, huh it's some fucking puzzle game that you're supposed to. I don't know. You know the one that I play that has some color bricks and shit. Hers is similar, but once you're done with each level it forms a picture. I don't know.
Speaker 1:So that's genetic. I just passed on shit. I never knew. You learn something every day.
Speaker 2:That's what she told me and I thought it was going to be such a cute idea, like, oh, mom, I want to hear your story. She's like, no, fuck you.
Speaker 1:I don't feel like writing in this shit, you know what? That would be a cute idea for me if I was ever a mom. But if I do that, to my mom. She'd be like looking at me like why can't write? They're illiterate like us, hereditary, yeah, genetic right there. No, I do my journaling. I do something like that too. I do my little journaling that you just answer a question a day, but that's, that's something that I enjoy and I like.
Speaker 2:But my mom or someone like that doing that, hell no I have so many books like that and I honestly I I I've tried filling them up and I just can't, because I'm like, what the fuck am I grateful for today, you know? But I find that journaling with stickers for me is more therapeutic. So literally I have a notebook where I just be like stickering all over the pages and just however I'm feeling that day, I guess.
Speaker 1:So I don't write anything. You just create a picture out of stickers.
Speaker 2:Not really a picture, it's just like you still write. No, I don't write anything. I have stickers that have words. Oh okay, I don't write anything on it, I can only think of a sticker like be kind or something like that. No, hold on.
Speaker 1:Tell me something. Tell me something that you enjoy doing me oh, I hear her walking. Um, yeah, like I enjoyed like doing stuff like that, like journaling, but like what I said, answering a question a day and um, I like doing my little planner. I like putting stickers on my planner, like, okay, like today I went to get my nails done and I put the little sticker of the nail polish, you know? Oh, I see.
Speaker 2:I'm going to snap a picture, because this isn't like super private, you know. I guess I'll post it on the page. So I guess it's like yes, you will. I guess it's like a little bit of manifesting with stickers too I don't know how to call it, but's what I like doing for me because I'm traumatized you do this every day. No, not every day, just you know every couple days.
Speaker 2:So you call this journaling well, it's not journaling like the regular kind that you write on it like and say like dear diary. Today I fucking saw the guy I like, you know like it's not like that for me because I was gonna tell you I'm traumatized.
Speaker 2:It's kind of like a bit it looks more like a vision board, yeah, kind of like a daily vision board like this is what you want but yeah and um, when I was little, I used to write on a, on a diary or like a journal, whatever the fuck you want to call it, and my mom read it, and so I was like, oh hell, no, I can't be having my private thoughts like that.
Speaker 1:Oh, I know, I get scared too, but I'm like no one cares to read my shit, so on this one.
Speaker 2:I wrote something when I broke up with my ex dude that I was fucking laughing at. The other day that I saw it, I think I told you about it. Um, it's like throwing shade at her. I can't remember what it was, but I wrote something like and, as you can imagine, she's fucking ugly. I don't even know.
Speaker 1:I'm not gonna look for it right now cause, as your journal can imagine, I was like what the fuck 15 year old shit is this? So, yeah, I think it's more like a vision. It's like more like a little vision notepad as opposed to vision board that's cute I like it, so you want to go to Disneyland Japan is what I'm saying.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I'm going to Japan next year. I'm putting it all over my mind. Okay, okay, cute. I never wanted to go to all the Disney parks until we went to the Disney Paris. It's okay. Oh, I know.
Speaker 1:It was fun.
Speaker 2:The dragon. I still don't understand, though, why Cinderella? Is Cinderella the one in Paris? Yeah right, no, not Cinderella.
Speaker 1:Beauty, butch, sleeping Beauty, my favorite princess. What are you doing?
Speaker 2:Wait, she's in Paris. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, I'm talking about the movies.
Speaker 1:Like I still don't understand why the castle wasn't bell's castle oh, you know what, that that I do, that I do question. Instead it's in japan, mm-hmm, yeah, like I don't know why why wasn't?
Speaker 2:oh, because mulan is chinese. Huh, I get it. Isn't there another one in shanghai?
Speaker 1:shanghai, shanghai, shanghai yes, shanghai, there's a disneyland there, but I don't know what the castle is. I want to say cinderella, but I don't know. That makes no sense. So honestly yeah because we have sleeping beauty castle here and then they have the cinderella castle and well, disney world, yeah, I don't know, heck, they could have even done uh, well, no, they kind of didn't. I don't know. We're not the ceos girl, that's. Someone else got paid good money to fuck it up, but not us yeah, I have no idea.
Speaker 2:Honestly, I don't know what disney is thinking with a lot of things. The only thing I'm excited about is the new edition that they're gonna do at the florida one. Um, they're gonna do like a villains land. I'm like, damn, that's cool, like the original villains, though not the new villains, because the new villains suck, I'm keeping my comments to myself so far.
Speaker 1:So far, I'm keeping my comments to myself, uh but anyway, babe, we've gotten sidetracked.
Speaker 2:I know I'm sorry. No, it's okay um, have you tried any cleaning uh?
Speaker 1:no, what is?
Speaker 2:it. Any internet hacks, well, anything that we see on Instagram.
Speaker 1:Oh, like see online. Oh, okay, that's okay. I was like ma'am, I was like I don't know, I didn't know we were doing internet hacks. I'm like I don't even know how to work the computer, but here we are. No well, I have tried like some things that I see, like drinking the chia seeds with lemon and water, and that was going well. You know, I don't know why I stopped, but I stopped and I'm going to go back to it.
Speaker 2:How did you do it?
Speaker 1:Did you leave it overnight or yeah, I left it overnight, so I would do it at night and then I leave it overnight and then I take that little water bottle and I'll take it and I'll drink it throughout the day and supposedly it's to help you lose weight or reduce weight. And I mean, I found that it, tmi helped me with, you know, digestion.
Speaker 1:so I don't know if that's what it's supposed to do. I just know it was supposed to make you lose weight, but you're supposed to do it for two weeks and I didn't do it for the whole two weeks but I'm gonna redo it again because I ran out of lime. I do it with limes but, yeah, um, I'm gonna go back to it again.
Speaker 2:So I did try, if you want to add something to that, because I've tried that before and it does work. I love adding chia to my water, like it just. I feel like it's just good for your digestion, regardless of whatever you drink it with, but if you want to add to the chia seeds, do a little scoop of flax seeds and the chia seeds, leave it overnight, and then the only thing, though, is that you have to drink the whole cup of water in the morning Not throughout the day, but in the morning and then, if you want, you can still add chia seeds to your daily water. But you know my nephew's mom, you know how old she is, right, you, you know my nephew's mom, you know how old she is, right. You see her body, like her skin that's what she's done all her life like she still looks good for her age.
Speaker 2:she's like she's getting to 60, right, I think 60, 60, I think she's like 61 that sounds about right yeah, but she has a really nice body and she's always done that and like her stomach I'm not saying it's flat, you know but yeah, it works I'm like damn near.
Speaker 1:Um, I tried that, I'm having a brain fart. What else did I say earlier? You said something about pineapple. Oh yeah, pineapple. Okay. So like I have this issue I don't know if you know, you guys go through it too when you eat a lot and you feel like full, like it's that disgusting fool, like you want to like puke. But, um, I usually chew a gum, a piece of gum. I chew a piece of gum and it helps me. But that that was before I learned that if you eat a slice of pineapple after a heavy meal, like that, it helps. You know, like, so you don't feel like fool and it really does work. I just you know, I know there's a lot of people who are allergic to pineapple. So if you're allergic to pineapple, this won't work, but you can try oranges.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:I'm like ah, what does that sound? Oh sorry the gardener.
Speaker 1:Oh, I'm sorry, I'm like yeah, so then also there I was reading that mangoes for the ladies. If you're on your time of the month, if you eat mangoes it helps with, you know, cramps and the smell balances your ph. Yeah, so that one I did try. I'm like I'm not expecting like overnight miracles, but you know, like it did, did kind of help.
Speaker 1:Um, so mostly mine are food related I can see that, mine's too, girl, mine's too so, but there are some like I wanted to try, and you know I haven't done it, but it's basically putting a stem of rosemary into a, you know, like a plastic bottle or a glass jar or mason jar and then, um, putting like baby shampoo and I sent it to you. What else was it in there?
Speaker 2:it was rosemary I can't remember, but I know that this hack works. One of my friends tried it and she said her hair is like super nice and it her. It also helps with hair growth. So, like, if you, I know there's people that like have a lot of stress and they have like patches of hair that are falling off, um, it helps to regrow that, but you have to follow the instructions really well because it can also burn your scalp. So let's just keep that in mind. I can't remember what else I had. And girl going back to, maybe I have it on my favorite. We'll post all of these on our stories.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I'll look for it, babe. So for me, me, oh, you sent me one with coffee too. Coffee and and shampoo to keep your hair from falling off.
Speaker 1:Yeah, see, so those ones I want to try for the hair yeah, it says that rosemary stimulates hair growth, simulate blood flow.
Speaker 2:Uh, stimulates the hair follicles and hair loss. Oh, you have to add cloves and cinnamon. Yeah, we'll try that one, we should. We should make it together and then see results.
Speaker 1:We should take a before and after picture of our hair. Yes, and we should do it for two weeks and then see progress.
Speaker 2:Tune in in about a month to see progress.
Speaker 2:Yeah we'll retouch this. I tried one today that my mom told me that she saw on Facebook that supposedly if you grab a garlic clove and you cut it in half and then you make a circle on the pan of like how big you want your egg, so let's let's say you're going to make a muffin, right, and you want, like, an egg that is going to be that size, supposedly, if you put it around the pan and then you put the egg, like it's not going to go farther than the edges of where the garlic is, or whatever. I tried it today, girl, I ended up making scrambled eggs because it did not pan out. No, um, I saw another one on tiktok. So one of my favorite things to do on tiktok is see how people cut fruit to make it easier, uh.
Speaker 2:So I tried a watermelon and I was like, damn, this is so much easier. Like you basically peel it, but not really. Um, and I saw how to cut an onion, so you know how, like the onions already have like those little lines. So you chop like a little bit of the bottom, but you keep the the top part, the one that has like the little hairs, and then you make lines with your knife along the lines of the onion and then you move it sideways and then when you cut it it's already like all the squares. You don't have to be like chopping it both ways, because I used to cut it in half and then make all the squares with the knife?
Speaker 1:Yes, uh-huh, that's what my mom does.
Speaker 2:Yes, yeah, so now I just do it like standing up and I do all the like cuts around the lines of the onion and then I flip it and then, yeah, like the little squares come out.
Speaker 2:Oh that's crazy. I'll have to try it now. I also tried a pomegranate. You're supposed to like cut it like a star and then like flip it and it all comes out popping, but you have to have a big container Because otherwise you're just going to fucking make this that part. Think, oh, I tried the.
Speaker 2:So for the people who have like dark underarms, like the armpits, or like your neck and stuff, it can be medical, and sometimes I don't, I don't know, maybe the deodorant you wear or something. So I try. I have dark under armpits since I was fucking little. I don't know why. They've told me that I'm resistant to insulin. They've told me that it's. It's not a hygiene thing, dude, because I've literally like scrubbed myself to the point where it burns and it doesn't come out. You know, it's just my I don't know my skin.
Speaker 2:And so I tried the lemon with baking soda and a little bit of turmeric. Kind of helped. I also tried the glycolic acid from the ordinary. That seemed to clear them, but I haven't done it long enough to know like real progress. So tune back in in a month again. Uh, what else did I try? Oh, I tried. So this is in the realm of other hacks. I tried sleeping with mouth tape on. Remember I sent you a picture because I saw that supposedly, if you sleep with your mouth open you're more prone to snore, which in turns makes your how do you say papada in english?
Speaker 1:like your tonsils, your chin say papada in English.
Speaker 2:Like your tonsils, your chin, oh no, oh, you're like your fat chin, your double chin, yeah, like the fat, yeah, the double chin, yeah. So if you snore and you sleep with your mouth open, that's kind of what causes your chin to be fatter than it should be Like it's not necessarily fat, but I don't know what the fuck the science is behind it, so I started sleeping with that. I slept with it for two weeks straight, and I I don't. My mom was telling me yesterday she's like your, your face looks skinnier. And I was like no, mom, you just love me. And she's like no, like yeah, your face looks slimmer.
Speaker 2:And I'm like, okay, I don't know, because I wait literally the same, and yeah, and the only thing I've noticed, though, is that I do sleep with my watch, and my watch has told me that my snoring has decreased. So so, like last night, I was snoring like six hours straight before, and now it says that I snored for two hours and 54 minutes, but I also slept longer, and then, the night before, it told me that I slept, for that I snored for two minutes so I don't know, maybe I'm gonna have to try that, I'm gonna have to put tape on my mouth and see but it's not like fucking masking tape, it's like.
Speaker 2:It's like like a special thing they sell for your mouth don't.
Speaker 1:No, you're like, I have to disclaimer this because all you bitches are gonna start putting masking tape and you're gonna blame me for this yeah, because I saw people doing it on instagram and tiktok.
Speaker 2:They were literally fucking putting tape, like the tape that you use at the office and they were like this doesn't work. I'm like no fucking shit there's a snoring tape. Yeah, you guys are gonna have to give us the link or you.
Speaker 1:But I also saw one one little hack and it's for to grow your lashes and your eyebrows and it's basically um putting a couple tablespoons of flax seeds into boiling water and letting it boil and then um strain, like grabbing that mixture and putting it in like a straining cloth and using the gel that you that you get out of that, mixing that with aloe gel and castor oil, and it has like a density of like a, like a thick gel, and you just mix that with a couple drops of vitamin e and then you use like a cotton swab or a mascara wand and then you just put it on, you apply it to your lashes like if it was mascara and or on your eyebrows, and you do that for two weeks and your lashes grow and your eyebrows grow so I'll post that.
Speaker 2:I've seen the one. Yeah, I've seen the one with castor oil, where you apply castor oil to your lashes and your eyebrows. I did it for a little while and the only thing I saw is that my lashes wouldn't fall as easy as they usually do, but I stopped doing it.
Speaker 1:Girl, this is what we're lacking consistency, honestly there's also one to get rid of pests and I want to try this one out at work. I was like no shade, but it's to get rid of little like gnats and fruit flies and and stuff like that. Um, you bait it, they basically come from the drains, right? So you have to put a couple dashes of pepper, pepper sauce or like hot sauce and you just put it in the drain and what's it called? Get a container of water and you at room temperature and cut a piece of lemon, mix it with the water and yeah, throw it down the drain and supposedly that keeps them. And some baking soda yeah, baking soda, water and lime. You pour in the drain with some vinegar and yeah, and that helps get rid of the bugs I don't know, I want to try it.
Speaker 2:But yeah, I want to try that too, because these fucking heat man the fruit flies the ant. Oh, so for, I did this one too, for for the ants and the little spiders.
Speaker 1:Um, I saw this thing that you had to boil anise oh shit, I know what it's called in english it's like chai no, no, no, it's chai I'm.
Speaker 2:It's like a, this spice that looks like a star. It is star anise oh my god, yeah um so yeah, so how you have to boil that in water with a little bit of um cinnamon and salt and baking soda and you have to let it boil and for it to like simmer for a little bit and then you put it in like a spray bottle and you spray that around your um the frames of your doors and windows and all that, and it's supposed to keep them away.
Speaker 2:So I tried it in my kitchen because we had a lot of fucking ants and I tried it by my bed, because for some fucking I do not eat at my bed, dude, like I, I don't have that bad habit, you know. Like I don't eat on my bed almost ever. The only thing I do have is like my cup of water, actually like three, four cups of water, but, um, but other than that nothing. And so I tried it and the ants did minimize, but they didn't completely go away. So my mom saw one that you're supposed to like sprinkle, sprinkle cinnamon powder and that doesn't let them go to that area because I don't know something about cinnamon scares them.
Speaker 1:So we did that and that probably because the smell is so strong, like even for us, imagine for them. They're so tiny, they're like fuck, get away yeah, so that worked for the ants.
Speaker 2:That's about it. I don't. I don't think I've tried any other hack. Oh, I saw one. Did I send you the one for the hammer and?
Speaker 1:the nail.
Speaker 2:So I saw, saw this video where the guy's like did you know that? Do you know how hammers have, like a little opening at the top? Yes, that's what you're. That's where you're supposed to put the nail and then slam it in the wall. Instead of holding the nail and you fucking hammering, you're supposed to put it on top of that little line that the hammer comes with and then slam it in the wall and then start hammering it in so you don't fuck up your fingers. See, we're learning, we're learning. Who knew that this was an educational podcast? Right, who would have thought?
Speaker 1:I also saw one that if you don't move for 15 minutes, like at all.
Speaker 2:You'll fall asleep.
Speaker 1:I'm like thinking well, but I'm like if you have trouble sleeping, I mean put it to the test, like stay still for 15 minutes, right, but it's hard to stay still for 15. But if you don't move, I'll be counting the minutes.
Speaker 2:If you don't move, I'll be counting the move.
Speaker 1:Within 15 minutes you'll fall asleep, I guess I'll try that one, because I do have a hard time falling asleep. Um, yeah, I don't know. On another note, babe, I have a question.
Speaker 2:I have two questions do you wash your legs every time you shower?
Speaker 1:I saw that on the post on our story and I was like, oh, I was like that's interesting. I didn't think that was a question that needed to be asked, but I guess, girl.
Speaker 2:So apparently eight out of ten people don't, and I don't understand the logic behind that. It's like what do you mean? Your legs are not dirty, like what do you?
Speaker 1:like that shower, that's like the one I mean. Like, especially right now, like if you're wearing shorts and stuff, like they're exposed, just like your arms, like your arms are exposed. You're using your arms and your legs all the time Like I don't know. I just feel like we wash our hands constantly, you know.
Speaker 2:Okay, so that's my second question. You wash your hands all the time right.
Speaker 2:Yes, I wash my hands all the fucking time because I can literally be just on my phone, that I'm like I need to wash my hands. I don't know Like I just you know they get sweaty, whatever. So I also saw online that there's people who do not wash their hands when they go to the restroom and not to be fucking bashing anyone not that they listen to this shit but I've seen it at work where girls go to the restroom and you know, like I don't know who has it worse to go to the restroom, honestly, if guys or girls, because guys literally have to hold their dick out. But you know what we have to do to wipe right. And they don't wash their hands. And I'm like you literally just sounded like you took a shit and you're not washing your hands. Like what are you doing?
Speaker 1:Yeah, I've seen that happen and that's why I wash my hands, because you know you go into the stall, right, know you go into the stall right, especially if we're talking about public restrooms, right. Uh, you go into the stall, you lock the door, right, so you're touching that, and then you're doing your business. You know you wipe and you know you're you're touching the, the toilet paper, you're.
Speaker 1:If I don't, I'm, I'm not the person that touches the buttons, or if their sensors cool, if there's not, um, and there's a button, I try not to touch it. So I either use my foot if I can reach it with my foot. So, because I know I do that, that's why I don't touch it, because I'm assuming that other people either use their dirty ass hands or use their feet, which is worse, because they're walking around this, you know, with their shoes all dirty and I or I get, if I can't reach it, I get a piece of toilet paper, I press it with that and then I flush that, and that's why I go and wash my hands afterwards yeah same, because I think like that's the normal thing to do.
Speaker 2:But people are disgusting, babe, like, like, when it comes to hygiene and cleaning habits, I, I don't understand why. It's all right. Like I understand that bodily smells and fluids are gonna like flow or whatever.
Speaker 1:Like you can't control them all the time, but you can a little bit, like I don't know I just feel like I'm I'm not saying like I'm perfectly squeaky clean, you know like, of course, like we're all human, but I'm just saying like I try my best to be clean, like, even like when I shower, like, yeah, I mean, I live with my mom and stuff and right now I have current roommates, but before it was just me and her or it's just me. I personally don't like to leave hairs all over, like the bathtub and like, granted, it happens, you know, like our hair falls off, like when we're like conditioning it or something there's like you get a strand of hair or something. It falls off. I don't like leaving hairs. I like either rinsing them off, getting them to the the drain stopper and then, like when I'm done, like almost in showering, I throw it out. I don't like leaving any residue or marks that I was in the shower or whatever same thing when I'm in the restroom.
Speaker 1:I don't know about you ladies, like I was taught you know, if you're on that time, be a lady, don't let it be known to the world that you're on that time. And some girls just throw, like their, their pads, their tampons away, like like that, like just like the bloody mess that's there and I'm like what the fuck? Like I don't need to see that I go through it. I don't need to see yours too. You know, like I don't know gross yeah.
Speaker 2:I don't know. I think, like with the newer generations, it's like, oh, your period is nothing to be ashamed about. Like you, you can talk about it. And it's like, yeah, okay, cool, you can tell me you're in your period, whatever. Don't, let me fucking see it though, because I don't need to see it. I don't know where this fucking world is going to. But then you know, it's not even about age, because I've seen some fucking old ass people that are dirty as fuck, and I'm like who raised you? Because I think, like, also, hygiene comes from the forming years of your life. You know, mm-hmm, but yeah.
Speaker 2:And then I saw this video. I think I was telling you about it. I saw this video the other day where a girl is talking on her podcast with her friend saying how she doesn't understand why washing your hands is necessary and that she purposely won't wash her hands. Like she won't wash her hands at her house, like ever. She's like it's my food, it's myself, it's my house. Like why am I gonna need to like? Why am I gonna wash my hands? And then she said, like, when she goes to public restrooms, it's like she knows that people are looking at her waiting for her to wash her hands and she pretends to wash her hands, like she makes it seem like she's washing her hands and she'll even make the motion of like she's drying her the hands on her pants, but she doesn, and I'm like so you know that it's like frowned upon socially to be disgusting but you still choose to be disgusting, right?
Speaker 1:And the fact that you're already pretending, why not go the extra way to just it's just washing your hands, it's not going to do any harm to you, like I really don't get it.
Speaker 2:I don't know, girl, like, like the, also the, the armpit smell. I don't know about you, but I feel like I try to be self-aware when I know that I've been sweating and like I always carry like a stick of deodorant, like the traveling kind or whatever. You know, we always have wipes, so, like, if I feel already myself like getting musty or whatever, I'm like I'm gonna go to the restroom and fucking take care of that shit. But then you sit, like especially me, on the bus. Girl, oh my god, you sit next to some people that you're like, do you not? Are you immune to smell?
Speaker 1:like what's happening and you're just like, if I can smell that from here, how the fuck can you not smell yourself? Because, like I smell one little thing off, I'm very self-conscious.
Speaker 1:I'm like, oh shit, I need to take care of this but, some people like act like they don't smell anything and I'm like how, like you, really are you okay with smelling like that? Like there's no way. I'm not saying like use perfume. I know some people are allergic to perfume and fragrances and things like that, but come on like then clean that shit, like I don't know how to explain it.
Speaker 2:Well, my grandma says you don't even need to use anything. She says that if you put lemon under your armpits that you won't even smell. So if you're allergic to like store-bought shit, do natural remedies.
Speaker 1:You know, I know to be to be fair, like, um, my friend, one of my friends, there was a time where she was trying everything organic, everything had to be organic, and she tried this organic deodorant. I remember we were out and about and she was like oh my god. And we were like what's going on? And she was freaking out because she felt self-conscious, because she was like I, I smell, you know. And we're like, no, you don't smell. And she was like I'm trying this organic deodorant but I don't think it's doing shit, like I can smell my armpits, and we were like, no, you're fine. Later on in the day she was like we smelled it and we're like, yeah, girl, we need to get you to cvs or something. But she was like never again, never again.
Speaker 2:But yeah, she, she was mortified you know which one does that to me? And I like the brand. I'm not gonna say the brand, but it's the one that we like.
Speaker 1:Oh, I know I was gonna tell you I'm like don, but it's the one that we like. Oh, I know I was going to tell you I'm like don't say it's that one. I was like yeah, because it does wear off, but I mean it does do the job and then, but does it though?
Speaker 2:Because for me, okay, yesterday I showered in the morning and, remember, I told you I was supposed to have a date right. Then by the time I got back home, girl, mind you, I went to the office in the morning. I did not leave the office all day, so I was in the AC all day, and you know, when you're in the office it's cold as hell. And then when I got out, when I called you, it was five, 30.
Speaker 2:I got home like at eight, because the buses took for fucking ever, but at that time there's no sun. Like oh my God, I'm fucking sweating my eyes out, you know. And by the time I got home I told my mom I was like I'm so glad that I didn't go on the date, because I feel like I smell, and she smelled me and she's like, oh yeah, a little bit. And I put on the deodorant in the morning, dude, and like I'm like I don't understand if maybe it's because you know how they have different like scents or whatever, um, I don't know if it's the type that is it the which?
Speaker 1:um, I like the pink, I don't like the purple one, because I feel like that's what the purple one does to you no, I have the orange one, I haven't tried the orange one yeah, so I have tried the pink one I had. The only one I've used is the orange one um, I've only used the purple one and that's all I was like.
Speaker 2:Once I found the pink one, I was like oh the pink one's so good, I'm gonna have to try that one because, yeah, I felt that the only deodorant that doesn't do that to me is the other one that I would use. Again. We're not saying brands because we're not being fucking yeah, they're not sponsoring us.
Speaker 1:So you have to say that to the other ones, that we're not ceos too. We're over here promoting their little castles and we're like over here saying the name oh, what the fuck are they gonna do to us?
Speaker 2:a baby podcast. They can go, you can go as well um, but yeah, babe, like I, I don't know, I don't know, dude, I just feel like I don't. How do you and how do you educate people? Right, like, how do you tell someone, without being fucked up, like hey, for example, the people that their fucking mouth stinks?
Speaker 1:oh my god I cannot deal with that like because I have to talk to people on a daily basis. I have some people that they're not even in my face, they're not even like close, and you know, I don't know what it is. I feel like there's some people that you just look at them like you could tell like that's not to be fucked up, but that's their lifestyle, and you're like, okay, you smell, like how you look. But it's more disappointing when it's someone who you know looks done up, like you know someone who's very attractive, and they're like flaunting their money and stuff. And then they come and then they just say hi, and then you're like ugh, like I can smell everything, like you're like what the fuck?
Speaker 1:And then you see, like a gorgeous couple too, and you're like you kiss her like legit. You kiss her like I'm I'm fucking gagging right now because of how she smells talking to me and I'm like that's embarrassing and I'm that's how I'm like always like oh, my god, does my breast move? I remember I had that dream and I was like, oh, especially since I had that dream, I'm like oh yeah, I need to do everything.
Speaker 1:I was like, oh my god, that's like the worst no, do you remember that one guy?
Speaker 2:I don't think you do there was this one guy that was always asking me out when I used to live over there, um, in the little, my first apartment, um, and, dude, his fucking breast stank all the time, all the time, all the time. And one time he was like I don't understand why, like we go out but you don't want anything with me. And I told him, like you want me to be honest with you, like I'm sorry, but I cannot picture myself kissing you, like I just can't. And he was like why not? And I was like, just I just can't, you know, like I was trying to be nice, not tell him. And then he's like I need you to tell me why. And I was like, because your best things. I was like I don't know, maybe if you literally brush your teeth in front of me like I could, but like I can't, and, dude, you're like I need, I need to see it to believe.
Speaker 2:Yes, I remember, like the guy in italy that I told you guys I literally wanted to sit him down because he had like buildup in his whole fucking mouth like he was cute, but that was the one thing that was just disgusting and I told you guys like I wish I could sit him down in the toilet you're like I just want to scrub his fucking mouth.
Speaker 1:You're like, while I'm at it, shower him down for real.
Speaker 2:Like I was like, oh damn, you're cute, but you're fucking it up with that fucking build up in your mouth. But anyway, the thing is that this guy like he got mad, obviously because I told him that and he pinned me down in his car and he was gonna forcefully kiss me, leslie, and I started crying. I was like please, don't, like, don't kiss me. Like don't kiss me with that mouth. Like it was just disgusting, I couldn't. Oh my God, it was. That was one of the worst experiences and I was like why would you do that? Because I want to kiss you, I like you and I was like I don't give a fuck what you like. Like, don't do that shit to me.
Speaker 1:And I think you were inside Gross. Yeah, Come on gross.
Speaker 2:I know that there's like a sickness¿. Cómo es que se llama? Oh, gingivitis.
Speaker 2:No, no, no. Halitosis, halitosis. What is it called? Halitosis, halitosis? It's called halitosis and it says that bad breath can cause Can't, what Fuck? I can't, what fuck? I can't even see. This is part of the last episode. Read something that we think we cannot read. I can't read. It says this is fucking embarrassing. Uh, halitosis meaning bad breath. Uh, maybe due to poor oral hygiene, but this isn't always the case. It can also occur due to a number of health conditions, including dry mouth, mouth, heartburn or even disease in another part of your body. So, depending on the underlying cause, you can treat the halitosis. I know that people who eat a lot of meat to have really bad breath people who drink coffee and smoke it.
Speaker 2:Look, I smoke, but I will never smoke and drink coffee at the same time. That just creates a nasty ass fucking mixture of bad breath, yellow teeth, just nastiness all around offense to anyone that does, but you know, we're just.
Speaker 1:We're just speaking our minds here no, I'm offending you're like I purposely want to read.
Speaker 2:You guys, you're like I don't want to get canceled. I'm like I don't care.
Speaker 1:No, just no, but for real though, like you guys need to be self-aware, like honestly someone.
Speaker 2:Yeah that's what this episode, what this episode is about.
Speaker 1:Someone needs to do you guys a service of telling you guys.
Speaker 2:Yeah, like me with that guy. I honestly don't know. No, no, he did not fix his issues Because like two years ago one time he hit me up like a fucking five in the morning dude and he told me if he could come talk to me and for some godforsaken reason I said yes and I so I went outside, like outside, here, outside my door, and when he said hi to me I was like oh no, now I remember no no, this is why I don't like talking to you and I was covering my.
Speaker 2:I was covering my nose. You know that I don't know how to pretend to be nice and he's like so I finally got diagnosed and I was like have you done anything about it? Like that's fucked up.
Speaker 1:But you're like, oh shit, I like how he came to. He's like, let me go to the source of the problem, let me, I finally got diagnosed. And then you're like, uh-huh, I can tell, and you still haven't done shit.
Speaker 2:And I did ask him. I was like have you done? Anything about it and he was like, yeah, like I take medication and I was like it doesn't work, it doesn't work right, it does not work.
Speaker 1:And I mean okay for those of you that don't know Mariah, if you were to have a one on one lunch date or something or hang out with Mariah, you will know that this girl does not hide any emotions in her fucking face.
Speaker 2:So you can already imagine.
Speaker 1:no, I see you with one arm crossed and then the other hand covering your nose like mm-hmm, and you're giving my grandma a stare like uh-huh. It's because I already see it. You're like in that pose too, like with your feet like one leg out, like trying to tap like mm-hmm with your, with your feet like one, leg out, like trying to tap like bitch. I'm fucking crying, I know, because that's literally I, literally I can see it because I fucking know you, but that's what I'm saying like those that know, you will know the fucking face you had, like, with the fucking eyes like blinking.
Speaker 1:See, that wasn't even there. That's why I was laughing, because I was like, oh shit, he came and told you that he got dark and this is fucking years later.
Speaker 2:At least what? 10 years later? Oh my god yes, you ate, by the way, I think. And this is fucking years later.
Speaker 1:Like at least what 10 years later? Oh my God. Yes, you ate, by the way, I think okay. So, if I'm not wrong, I think you said that this was during, like after, covid. So you wore a mask. I think you were wearing a mask. I think, so I remember you telling me, like girl, and I had a mask on and I could smell his shit.
Speaker 2:Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I think so, yeah, so that's why I'm like, is this the guy?
Speaker 1:because I was like I could swear that this was like the years like where you were, like, you know, trying to take care of your mom, and you were like, let me just be safe, and you wore a mask everywhere. So yeah, I, oh my gosh, that's hilarious oh my god.
Speaker 2:But see, like I don't know, maybe me telling him that he had nasty breath made him go to the doctor, Right. And he had a wife girl. He had a wife which I'm like in your wedding. Imagine kissing your hands and he smells like that. But anyway, look, listen. If somebody tells you you have bad breath, go to the doctor, try to figure it out.
Speaker 1:Yeah, don't go to Mariah, so you're going to feel more like shit. Fuck, you made my fucking day because I fucking knew, I knew.
Speaker 2:Oh, my God.
Speaker 1:Good job, chode. I knew, oh my God, good job, chode, good job, Literally doing the most.
Speaker 2:That's what it's all about, oh my gosh. Anyway, babe, do you have any other hygiene tips?
Speaker 1:Dude honestly Wash your hands, wash your legs.
Speaker 2:Wash your hands, wash your legs, wash your parts. Also, please buy a loofah, buy a pashtet, buy those little fucking baby towels that are like a little square, that is like I don't know, 10 by 10. I don't know how big they are, but like, do not use your hands to take a shower, because what the fuck are you doing? You're just giving yourself a massage. At that point, you know.
Speaker 1:Honestly, scrub it up and don't share loofahs. Please don't share loofahs or toothbrushes or toothbrushes or razors razors don't share razors.
Speaker 1:okay, let's just let's. Let's talk about this for a little bit, just real quick. You don't know what I'm using that razor for. I could be shaving my cooch. I could be shaving, you know, my armpits. I could be shaving my legs the normal right your ass. So, mm-hmm, guys, don't use girls' razors because you don't know where it's been Okay. And girls, don't use your man's razor to shave your cooch or your freaking legs or your armpits. That's fucked up. He's using that for his face. Just saying like think about it. Don't use each other's razors or switch out the blade. Do your guys' self a favor, because that's fucked up and this is why we get ingrowns and all that shit. Like take care of yourself, shave right, don't be messy and don't use a fucking rusty ass razor.
Speaker 2:Yes, throw it out either throw it out, yeah, like just don't be cheap on yourself. Like, okay, look, my thing is people will go out and spend literally fucking a hundred dollars on dinner and drinks, but they won't buy good like quality stuff to I don't know.
Speaker 1:Take care of themselves you know which is what I'm saying? That's what I'm saying about that one. That's what I'm saying about those people like that look all done up and they look good, they're wearing the name brand clothes and all that, and then they can't even fucking wash their mouth right or clean themselves right. Like that's gross.
Speaker 2:Mm-hmm, yeah, yeah, because and I know that sometimes we're struggling, right, because I remember when I used to live alone and have like not a shitty job, but I was getting paid $8 an hour, you know, I used to have to buy shampoo and soap from the 99 cent store, which also it's fine. Like you don't need to go buy fucking $40 shampoo either, just know how to use it well, like there's instructions in the shampoo bottles.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, you told me this and I was like what? I guess I never read a shampoo bottle, but fuck, like I didn't know that there was instructions, because I guess people don't know how to use it.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's because I was telling leslie. Let me tell you the story. I don't know how do you even say the name of the ham to start with. I don't want to sell the what the ham that he was cutting, the bologna oh, bologna, yeah bologna bologna, bologna.
Speaker 2:So there was, there was somebody here at my house and he was gonna make ham and eggs and then he, he, I had bologna in my fridge and he's like, can I have some of that? And I was like, yeah, sure. And so he starts chopping it off and like this food didn't think that him not being able to chop off the paper properly was like a hint that he wasn't supposed to eat that. And so then he put a piece of the ham in his mouth and he's like, was I supposed to take that off? And I was like, yeah, you didn't. And and he's like, was I supposed to take that off? And I was like, yeah, you didn't. And then he's like, no, because you didn't tell me. You know, it's like I didn't think I had to tell you. Like that's common sense, like if you see that you can't chop it off, like what makes you think that you can eat it you know.
Speaker 2:And then I told him I was like you're the reason why they put instructions on the shampoo bottles and I was like what the fuck? And then he just looked at me with this fucking face like you're a bitch and I was like yeah, but I mean, was I wrong? Not at all why am I like this? Because you're you and you're real you're here to put people on check. If you want a good read, come to me. Right, if you want a good read, come to me.
Speaker 1:Right, if you want sugarcoating, go to me, go to me.
