SPEAKER_00

Alright, this is Brendan Stacy with Let's Wine with Brendan Stacy, and we are back with another episode. And we think we're going to talk about hygiene a little bit today. Today I was in the shower and it hit me as funny because and I don't know what made me think of it, probably because I was washing my legs, and I didn't realize it was such a thing until somebody that I know described somebody as looking like he doesn't wash his legs. I didn't know that was a thing till today. But you know he live and learn. So do tell. Okay. Evidently there were some stereotypes accompanying with that, but I didn't I just want to focus on the hygiene of it. And of course, when I looked it up, it says it's primarily men. They think the runoff of the soapy water is enough to wash their legs without scrubbing.

SPEAKER_01

So they have in their head that they've washed the upper part of their body and just what runs down their legs and feet. It's clean enough. Is good enough.

SPEAKER_00

Yes. How do you feel about that?

SPEAKER_01

I I would disagree.

SPEAKER_00

I disagree too. I need to scrub everything. And I am old school and I know I take heat for this from people. I'm still a bar of soap and a wash rag. And I wash that wash rag every time. I just use it once, that's the end of it. It goes right in the laundry basket. I use three different soaps for your body?

SPEAKER_01

I use one for my face. Okay. And then I use one for like, you know, the areas. And then and then I have one that's free for all. It can go everywhere. Oh, okay. But I also use a disposal washcloth. Oh, alright. I like my scrubby, my uh loofah, you know, to do like my legs and my arms and my shoulders and stuff. But then I have the disposal washcloth. I start at the top and work your way down. Work my way down. All right. What kind of soap do you use on your face? Anything that has the word gentle in it.

SPEAKER_00

But lately I've been using dove bar soap that has no So you don't like anything smacking your face real hard? It has to be gentle.

SPEAKER_01

It has to be. Well, for soap for soap purposes. Okay.

SPEAKER_00

It must be gentle. I use dove uh dove bar soap. And I know some people argue that that's not really soap or whatnot, but I I feel like it does make my skin softer. And I use it, you know, from face to feet. Huh?

SPEAKER_02

There you go.

SPEAKER_00

In every crevice there is, that's where it goes. I know I get that washer egg and go to digging. Go to town with it. But that thing about the runoff really upset me for some reason. I don't know. Then I started asking, you know, family members and things like, is your man over there washing his legs? You know, are you guys all washing your legs over there? And I didn't know it was a thing, but my stepdaughter actually wrote me back and said that her husband had a story when he used to do construction, that this gentleman decided that he didn't wash his clothes enough. And so they would mark the back of his shirt. Isn't that crazy? To see how many days he went without washing. And he was that goes back to the episode on peeves or uh no cheapskates where this woman would take her clothes and stand on them in the shower and kind of stomp around on them. Well, I guess he was doing the same thing or wear them in the shower with body wash because he didn't want to use the washer and dryer in his complex.

SPEAKER_01

I know, which I mean I guess is such a money saver, but what a pain in the ass. I know. What a pain in the ass. And for full disclosure, I just want everybody to know I do change my clothes every day, but like I have several pairs of the same kind of jeans. I have several pairs of, you know what, I mean the same kind of um clothes. So I don't want people to think you can mark my clothes all you want. I'm I might look like I'm wearing the same exact thing. Oh I know.

SPEAKER_00

But I wear a lot of black. Yeah, I have a stack of black leggings. Oh, me too. You know, yeah, primarily my sleeping yoga pants, but then I have the what looks like denim stretch, you know, leggings. I have a stack of them too. Me too. So I know I like quick and easy. Don't have to think about it. Oh no. They're clean. That's right. They are clean. That's right. Anyway, it's not like we're wearing the same clothes over and over, but I hope people do um write in because I'd like to hear other people's hygiene habits and if I'm taking it too far in some ways. I just had a conversation with your husband out there about um shoving q-tips down in our ears. I've done that for years. Yeah. Every day. Every day I'm cleaning out my ears with q-tips.

SPEAKER_01

And what if we're not supposed to be using the q-tip, what what's the alternative? Like I was raised that you clean your ears with q-tips.

SPEAKER_00

Or they say don't put anything any bigger than your elbow in there. But I don't know. I guess you know, your wash rag maybe over your finger kind of thing, but that doesn't go deep enough for me, and I can't handle it feeling wet.

SPEAKER_01

That's I think the reason that I use a q-tip every day is more to dry. It's the wet feeling that I I don't want. Well, I can't handle it.

SPEAKER_00

I don't want that in my ear. But they do say you can get wax and packed it in there. That hasn't been an issue for me, luckily, or you could damage your eardrum, and I don't I don't think I go that deep in there.

SPEAKER_01

Well, I remember my nanny would use a bobby pin. What? My nanny Oh, we're learning hygiene tips now. A bobby pin. I never picked this up because I always thought ooh. Uh yeah. I mean What was she doing with it?

SPEAKER_00

Just kind of rooting around.

SPEAKER_01

Rubbing around in there. I don't know if she had an ear issue or that's how she used to clean her ear or inside. I don't know.

SPEAKER_00

She's scraping stuff out of there.

SPEAKER_01

I don't know. I I mean I I was young and I I don't ever I don't remember seeing gobs of anything come out, but she'd put a bobby pin up in there.

SPEAKER_00

You know what would really be gross? I watch a lot of horror movies. And if I ever caught you with a Q-tip in your ear and you're digging around, I'll come up and pop your elbow and ram right in your head. That's disgusting. I am disgusting. That's gross. I know. All right, let's get personal. How often do you shave your armpits?

SPEAKER_01

Not as often as I should. And like my legs, I don't know. My legs are if I'm in the mood. I try to shave my legs at least every time I wash my hair. I don't grow hair like I used to. That's another thing. But sometimes it will get long. Like I'll shave my legs when I can't stand them.

SPEAKER_00

I always say that would be my dating profile heading. Like, give me a reason to shave my legs. That's a good one. I know.

SPEAKER_01

I mean, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Cause um I know if I don't have a reason, yeah. You know, it's not like I'm out sporting shorts. But if I could feel, if I can feel the hair like through my, I mean, rubbing my pants or my legs touch each other and I'm like, ugh. A little too much. I know, and you, my dear, are you doing this daily? When I was younger, when I was younger and you know, all about the had to look pretty and be on point, you I would shave my legs. I would too, even when I wasn't dating anybody. Just to feel whole. Yeah, to feel like it. Oh, yeah. When young, you can imagine not doing it. From the minute you start doing it, you can't imagine not doing it. Now I'm still feeling like I'm in that slump. We're in a slump. I'm just letting it I'm married. Just let it happen. Yeah. I mean, I'm married, so you know, just let it happen. Three soaps are happening, but the razor's not every day. All right. How often do you wash your hair?

SPEAKER_00

One to two times. Mostly two times a week. Yeah, I was gonna say mine falls about every five days. Yeah. Is when it needs it. And I feel like if I didn't, or if I did it more than that, I wouldn't have any hair. Because you know how I treat it with hair dye. I mean, it's it's on its last leg. I don't want it all falling out because there's a lot of it. There's a lot of it. It's thick and I don't know.

SPEAKER_01

It looks pretty today the way you have it too. And your makeup's lighter. Well, here you go. I know. You just look so young and fresh and doughy. Like doughy skin. Doughy. I know that's a thing. That's a term I've learned recently. Doughy skin, is it? Dowie? Dowie. That sounds like cellulite. No, no, no. Dewey.

SPEAKER_00

Dewey. Dewey. Not doughy. Dewey. I look like a Pillsbury Dough boy. No, you. So if you're into that, here I am. You look dewy. You look beautiful. Well, thank you. You're welcome. All right. Well, so you we got the hair down. Do you condition every time too?

SPEAKER_01

Yes.

SPEAKER_00

I have to.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. I use like half a bottle of conditioner. Yeah. I can't not condition. And then lately I've started using, at least every other time, I use this purple shampoo. That's like, have you ever used that? The toner? That kind of stuff? It's it's like it uh brightens and refreshes and takes the any yellow or brassy, the brassy look out. Germac. Germac. Germac toner. Something like that.

SPEAKER_00

Okay. I didn't even know they still sold that.

SPEAKER_01

They do. You can find it on the bottom shelf at Kroger. Okay. And of course, Amazon has everything. But I like, I don't know. I just there's something about like, oh, I get my purple shampoo today. And um, so usually I'll do that pretty thick and just let it sit and you know, and I mean I get compliments all the time on hair.

SPEAKER_00

So do you think as a rule, women have better hygiene than men? Of course, it probably depends on the man. It does depend on the man. I know, because I know some finicky men that are scrubbing more than once a day.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. Dev takes two showers a day. And I take one to wake up. You know, I mean, of course, I wash my face in there and I mean I go ahead and wash, but um, I have to take one, especially if I'm gonna leave the house or I didn't take one the night before. Yeah, you know, then I definitely um have to um shower in the morning.

SPEAKER_00

But no, it's weird that we plan our lives around hair washing. Like, well, how many days are we gonna be there? I know. I know I've already like I took my shower today and washed my hair. Yeah, but I've already got my alarm set to get up and take a shower with my hair in a ponytail because I have a dentist appointment at 10 in the morning. It's like I planned my whole life around my shower. Yeah. Is that crazy?

SPEAKER_01

No, no. I mean, it's totally, I think, natural and normal. And of course, see, I'm one who I will take a shower at night and wash my hair. And I know you won't go to bed. I know.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, okay. Here we go. Not go to bed with wet hair. Yeah, here's some Brenda trivia. That's I will not go to bed with wet hair. I can't do it. I feel like my pillow will get moldy. It doesn't. How often do you wash your pillow? That's a hygiene thing. I I don't know. Once in a while? I don't like that answer. Once in a while, I wash my pillow. You don't have it in your head like every three months or every six months at least. No, I just once in a while. How do you live with yourself and get on your pillow? I guess knowing it was wet. Okay, how often do you change your towel? See, I'm funny about towels. I can use a body towel maybe twice. If once it touches my hair, it has to go in the laundry. Yeah, see, that's your weird hair thing. I don't have that.

SPEAKER_01

But I also have my own, my hair towel is different. You've got a turban thing. Yeah. My hair towel is completely different than my body towel. See, I like a towel towel. Those two can't touch. Well, yeah. Those two can't be the same towel.

SPEAKER_00

There have you a hair towel and you have to have a body towel. See, I like a long towel on my hair. I like to wrap it around like a bath towel and whoop it like long hair behind it. Yeah, I wear mine.

SPEAKER_01

No, mine's like in a turban little styly thing. When it was long, long, like yours, it was. I mean, I used a towel towel, but now I can get away with the little turban wrap and how often do you brush your teeth wear?

SPEAKER_00

Twice. Yes. Me too or more. If I'm going somewhere special, I'll do it. Of course I'm gonna do it again. Yeah, that's a given with us, I think. Yeah. Plus I'm going to the dentist tomorrow. I am religious about going to the dentist.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

That's part of the hygiene. Total body. I know.

SPEAKER_01

I've started being more religious about going to the dentist. I'm mine's just fear. It's not the like a little bit. That's right. You're the one that has take a volume the night before you go. I have to take a volume the night before, I have to take a volume the morning of, and then I take a volume when I get there, and then I get gas, and I get all the things that uh so I don't panic.

SPEAKER_00

There's an old movie we should watch today called The Dentist.

SPEAKER_01

I'm not watching anything scary about the dentist. Hell to the no. Hell to the no.

SPEAKER_00

This is just a plug for the show Cross. Oh my gosh, it is so good. You need to watch it. And there is a part in there where some teeth get pulled. No. No. Damn it. I can't. Well, it's good. It's on prime. If anybody wants to see it, it's the cross Alex Cross, James Patterson. Have to watch it. I do like it off. I think. I think you would like this. I do. But the first season is about a serial killer who actually goes after people who look like serial killers and keeps a book of it. But he goes to the extent the last one on there is that Eileen Wernos. I probably said that name wrong. But he's trying to get her to look like the person he kidnaps to look like the real serial killer. So of course he has to do something with her teeth. I know. And I know that that's probably the only part that would really get you. Yeah, that would get me. I mean, because the other parts like dyeing her hair and, you know, anything else to just get her to look. There's nothing I don't think too bad. Cross. It's called Cross. On Prime Video. It's on Prime Video. Yes, the first season is a it's not locked. Of course, it may be cheap. I don't have Prime, so I'm stealing Camille's. But there's two seasons. You know what I mean? Yeah, but we're signed in mine down here to watch RuPaul's. I know, and I kept telling Camille, I'll wait till RuPaul's over and then we can switch back. But now it's good. Oh okay. I I have dated some men that have had some nasty feet, and I don't know if it's just the shoes that they wear or just the the way they sweat or what? I have a confession.

SPEAKER_01

What? If I don't wash my work shoes every now and again, I smell popcorn when I take my shoes off. Do you wear socks? Yes.

SPEAKER_00

Okay. I wonder.

SPEAKER_01

But I get so hot and I run so much on you know at work and I wear the best shoes for work I possibly can. I just order a new pair. But I have several pairs and I try to keep them in wash rotation, you know, kind of like a you know, I wash my shoes a lot. I keep them in like a well, at least you're taking care of them. I do. I take care of them, but I'm just saying sometimes. Is that nasty?

SPEAKER_00

I don't think you don't wear socks more than once, right?

SPEAKER_01

No, no, no, no, no. I didn't think you did. I'd be shocked. I could not wear I know, I'd be very shocked. I don't even like I mean, I don't even like to wear socks, but I know at work I have to because otherwise, you know You can get blisters and shoes come running.

SPEAKER_00

Is that what do I do? I don't know. Are you I don't want to say this on the air, but I mean are you washing your feet properly? Of course. See, I'm one who, of course, has that wash rag, and when I get down to the feet, I put that over that finger and I root around between each toe and it feels so good and I go dunk dunk dunk. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Well, because you know I prefer to be everywhere in the world, bare feet. Is it bare feet or barefoot? Bare feet.

SPEAKER_00

That's a good qu Oh my gosh, I don't think I've ever read it. You stumped me. You have two feet, but is it barefoot? It's barefoot. It's barefoot. Because you can't be barefoot feet.

SPEAKER_01

Feeted. Anyway, I resent I resent the day his shoes were invented. Because you know I would just run around everywhere. Wilma Flintstone. Bare feet. Barefoot.

SPEAKER_00

That's a good thing. One of the things I would do that. I know some uh there's one to write in. Write in, let us know. Is it bare feet or barefoot? I know, I know. Not like we could Google it.

SPEAKER_01

But show prep we didn't do. Anyway. Um yeah. So you think you got sneaky feet? Has your husband ever said you have sneaky feet? No, and I've asked, like, can you smell my feet? And he's like, No. And I I know Jeff would be like, babe, what's that? I mean, I try to take care of it. I mean, I wash. Does he ever put his nose down there? No, he's never like rooting around and he's not like Gino. He's not trying to snore my feet. He's just like, No, I don't smell it. You know, and I believe him. I think he'd tell me the truth, you know. I mean, if I have a boogie or something, I think, you know, he'd tell me. I would say it's love right there. I know. I mean especially if you're out somewhere. You let me run around with a boogie. I know. Uh no, no, no. So yeah, I would tell you if you had a boogie. Oh, I'd tell you too. The other day a customer told me I had something in my hair. Well, yeah. I mean, you'd want somebody to tell me. I know. I was like, oh, thank you. And then I was like, Did I get you know, I start flinging my head and uh, you know, my fingers in my hair, I was like, I get it. And she was like, Do you mind if I just reach up? And you know, she grabbed it. It was a piece of um styrofoam. You know, how the styrofoam when you're opening stuff and styrofoam goes everywhere. But anyway, she was like, Do you mind? I was like, please touch me, get it, you know. But now people have to ask, you know, if they can touch you. Would you let her touch you and get it out? Probably, especially if I thought it was a bug or something. No, she I mean, she already told you what it was. Okay.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, I'd probably let her get it out. Something like that.

SPEAKER_01

I know you're funny about hygiene.

SPEAKER_00

No, they touched. I know. Have you ever thought somebody took hygiene too far? Or at least thought they did? I went on a date with somebody, this was prior to Scott, who had on so much cologne. I don't and we went to a movie, and I'm sitting there thinking, if he does this every day, that no, this is migraine central. There is no way I could sit here and smell this. Not that it smelled bad, it was just overdone. I'm thinking he put half a bottle on before he came here. You know, what was he thinking? I don't know. I like a lot of perfume though. I don't you know my red door whore. You are, but I don't sm I don't think it's that bad on you. Maybe I like the smell of that or something. Thank God, because we couldn't be friends if you didn't. That's I love ever worn for I know ever.

SPEAKER_01

I don't know, red whore. Red door whore. But anyway, but it's funny, even young people stop me and ask me what I'm wearing, and she was like, You smell so good. What is that? And then when I say red door, she's like, of course it is. Oh my god, you know. Oh, that's cute. I know. So I I do love the attention of the um it's not people our age never stop and go, what are you wearing? Unless I remind them of their grandma, and then they're like, You smell like my grandma. I'm like, Well, thank you.

SPEAKER_00

I don't know what I smell like these days. I quit wearing perfume just because of headaches and stuff. I'm you know, lotion. I like that cherry almond lotion. I use that a lot. But I don't know. I just don't really know what's the other blossom, cherry, cherry blossom cherry spray. Yeah, I like those. I like the sweet cinnamon pumpkin from Bath and Body Works. I don't like smelling food. Oh. That's one of my favorites. It's hard to come by. It is hard to come by sometimes. I know I haven't had it in years. Sweet cinnamon pumpkin. If you're out there, send it to me. You can find it. That's the hard thing. Yes, it's one of the classic scents that they have.

SPEAKER_01

Okay.

SPEAKER_00

I know they've done other like pumpkin scents, but it's not the same. I like the vanilla bean Noel that they put out at Christmas time. And they've changed that up too. Once in a while you'll find it though. They go back to it.

SPEAKER_01

I hate becoming um, you know, like Red Door's my favorite. Like if it went away, I would cry. I hate when we find something that we really, really like love. Like it's our thing. I know. You know, like when you find the perfect lipstick. Like, I found the perfect lipstick for me. It's Remo. Rimmel, Rimmel, Rimmel, Rimmel. And uh it's called Fatal Kiss. And it stays on me, it's my color, it's my everything.

SPEAKER_00

If that went away, I would just cry. That's how I am about eyebrow pencils. And Camille was the one that made the comment one time that a blonde is so hard to find. A good one that suits you, and one the one I like is actually one of the cheaper ones. It's elf. And I really like that one, the blonde one. Because it's hard to find a good eyebrow pencil. I don't know if it went away. I don't know. It looks scary for the apocalypse. Walk around with no eyebrows. Look at that alien over there. At least she's clean. I don't know. Can you imagine? No, you need eyebrows. Yes, gotta have eyebrows and lipstick. Uh-huh. If you could only have one makeup item, what would it be?

SPEAKER_01

I know. You we've had this conversation before, and I can't Did you say mascara? I now that I've said it. I know it was mascara lipstick and powder.

SPEAKER_00

Yes. Okay. I am an oily nose.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, it's those three things I want.

SPEAKER_00

Okay. That's understandable.

SPEAKER_01

So I I couldn't pick one. If I had like if life depended on me picking one, I would pick lipstick. Oh, me too. I would pick lipstick. I know. I feel like at least there's some color. I would pick lipstick. I feel like my mouth works better. I have lipstick on.

SPEAKER_00

What?

SPEAKER_01

No, but it sounded like your mouth works better when you have lipstick on. Yeah. Okay. If I don't have the appropriate lipstick on, I feel like that's what's happening. Sometimes I'm not just drunk in our episodes. I just don't have on lipstick.

SPEAKER_00

There was a girl I used to work with. This is kind of out there, but she always talked about, you know how some lip glosses are very sticky? And that's she liked that. I don't like it sticky. She'd sit there at work and put it on and just keep popping those lips. And I'm thinking, I don't think I'd like that. No. I don't like the sticky ones. I don't want my lips to be sticky. Of course I like the ones that taste good, but then they're gone. I know they eat it on. Oh, here's another one that I'm sure women will relate to this question. How often do you wash your bras? Because a lot of women don't wash them after every time, and they say not to, you know, to change them out. And I put mine in a pillowcase to wash, but I do I wash mine weekly. Whatever I've worn that week gets thrown in pillowcases and washed.

SPEAKER_01

I mean weekly, yeah. Two or three that I rotate, depending on what I'm doing. I mean I have my, you know, your go out bra. And then you have your go to work you don't care bra. I know. And then, you know, your comfortable stuff.

SPEAKER_00

Yes. And but if I and you're right though, if I sweat all day long, it's gonna it's going in the laundry. Oh yeah, for sure.

SPEAKER_01

I mean Ugh. But I don't feel like that like a panty I would never wear more than one day. Me either. But a bra I will.

SPEAKER_00

I know.

SPEAKER_01

Why do we do that?

SPEAKER_00

I don't know. I wouldn't wear a shirt more than once. Me either. Huh. Maybe I know. Maybe it's because my armpits touch it. I don't know, but I don't feel like I'm an over sweater. I know, right?

SPEAKER_01

I know. That's kinda weird. Uh, it is kinda weird. Well, I mean, back in the day, like when I was running all the time and wearing, you know, the heavy duty sports bras, those got washed every time. I couldn't rewear those.

SPEAKER_00

But they were primarily knit, right? Like a knit kind of thing. Or was that the exercise spandex?

SPEAKER_01

This was like uh I because I'm not the tiniest person right there. So I had to wear the like super support don't bounce bouncy bounce. Don't don't bounce bra. It hurts your boobs to bounce when you're running. Oh, yeah. Or do an exercise. When you're removing, it it hurts. So I would wear the like lock down.

SPEAKER_00

Good bra. Good. I read an article about how it can stretch you out and make them sag. It hurt. Yeah. It could hurt if you didn't have on the right bra. And you might hit yourself in the face.

SPEAKER_01

Those, they got washed. I wouldn't wear those more than once. But just a regular everyday. Why do we do that? I don't know.

SPEAKER_00

Maybe because our mothers and grandmothers and maybe because the elastic because the bras are very expensive. They are. And you know, once the elastic is shot, it's gone. I know. It's so hard to find another good one. I know. It is. Once you find a favorite, you want to buy, you know, every part of you. I don't know. So Alright, let me ask you this. If there was something about Jeff that had bad hygiene, would you have would that have changed anything or would you have been like, I'm gonna change you right now? What if he took his shoes off the first time and them feet were just kicking? And he had said he just had a shower, so you knew that was his something? Just what he was gonna do every day?

SPEAKER_01

I I I know it's harder to it's hard now because of how in love I am with him. But he's I mean, I don't know. He just has never had one of those issues, so I've never he doesn't even have bad breath. Bad morning breath. He has no none of that to me. Oh, he's lucky there.

SPEAKER_00

He is I know I hate to tell everybody out there I have morning breath. It's bad. Mm-hmm. It's bad. I can gag myself. It's like, who gotta go brush him.

SPEAKER_01

I know.

SPEAKER_00

So I he doesn't even have that. So I don't know. It's crazy. It's weird. I like men that smell like laundry detergent. Laundry detergent and shampoo. I'm not big on cologne. I don't care about the cologne or anything.

SPEAKER_01

He doesn't wear cologne. Ever? Uh-uh. Not really. Which I don't mind because. I was gonna say, does he own any? He does own it. But he just smells good. I mean, he just smells always clean. He just always smells clean.

SPEAKER_00

Somebody just smells clean.

SPEAKER_01

I know. I love him first thing in the morning when you like roll over and you just like I cuddle up to him and I just it's like I huff him. Almost. It's like my cat. I just huff him like you know, I don't know.

SPEAKER_00

It's weird, but is it weird? I huff my husband. What's your breath like in the morning? Awful. I'm sure. Do you try and hide it from him? Or do you just go full throttle?

SPEAKER_01

Like, if you love me, um, I mean, he you know, never complains because he knows once I I I'm gonna get up and the first thing I'm gonna do is take a shower and brush my teeth.

SPEAKER_00

So This might be a dumb question. I just thought of it looking at her. Do you shave your arms? No. See, I do. But I think it's because of the tattoos.

SPEAKER_01

No, I never shave my arms.

SPEAKER_00

I'm like a baby, I'm like a dolphin.

SPEAKER_01

You are very soft. You're very, very soft. But I don't have hair arms. So I don't I've never shaved my arms.

SPEAKER_00

I do because I don't want, you know, I have faces and I don't want them growing hair. I know. I think if you did grow arm hair, it would be blonde. Yeah, it is. Yeah. It is. And it and there's again, that's one of those things that changed. Yeah, as I got older, it's not near as bad as it used to be. I used to have some thick blonde hair on my arms. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

I think when I was younger, my hair on my arms was thicker, but you know that wear and tear on this 50-something year old body.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, I shaved my arms. No, I don't shave my arms. That's I think it's the tattoo thing for me. I don't know, keep them shaved. Well, you're one to go get Manny's and Petties sometimes, aren't you? You like that kind of grooming? Yes, I do.

SPEAKER_01

And I'm sort of snobbish about uh this. Um but dirty hands are dirty, especially dirty fingernails. Oh yeah. To me, uh dirty fingernails I I I think that's a pet peeve. I think that is one of the things that I don't know. I'd rather you have it shit smeared on your face than shit on your fingernails. Literally.

SPEAKER_00

I just can't handle that. And um I don't like people that bite their fingernails down to the nobs, yeah. I can't because that tells me that their hand was in their mouth. Yeah, I don't I don't I can't handle that either. I know.

SPEAKER_01

When I was a child, I used to bite my fingernails, and that shocks me because I just don't know you to beat it when I was just little and you know, fingernails are there and I just bit them. And of course my mother stopped that. Were you a thumbsucker? No. No. Um dirty fingernails just man or woman, I I just don't care. I'm just like, no, I can't, I can't do that.

SPEAKER_00

I've seen people who um like bite their lips so much that they have like red areas around their mouth all the time.

SPEAKER_01

Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_00

It usually is a company with hands in their mouth. I don't know, that's another disgusting thing to me. I can't handle that.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

The hands in the mouth thing. Mm-hmm. That's bad. I know.

SPEAKER_01

Have you ever whitened your teeth? Uh no. I mean, I think I've tried the like at home whitening, but um it it was like a trial thing. I've never like professionally had them whitened.

SPEAKER_00

I haven't either. Yeah, I tried to do the over-the-counter or the crest white strips or something. But you know considering I soak my teeth in red wine and coffee, it doesn't really do anything.

SPEAKER_01

You know, when you're at the dentist and the dental hygienist and stuff, you know, my girl, who is the only person who can do mine, by the way, she knows that I drink red wine. She knows that I drink coffee, you know, all the things that you know can color your teeth, smoking cigarettes, all those things. But she still always compliments, like they're she just says I'm lucky. That I just have to kind of teed that, I guess t the texture doesn't I'm thinking, yeah, how white would they be if I didn't drink wine and I know have an occasional cigarette or I know you know we well, you do too, you know.

SPEAKER_00

We floss all the time and stuff. And um the hygienist in Sebring always told me when she saw me coming in, she goes, Oh, you're an easy one. You know, when I'm there for my cleaning, they don't uh do a whole lot. Josh might beg to differ. I do miss Josh. I'm going to the dentist tomorrow morning, and I miss my son-in-law. He's a dental hygienist, and I mean he's so good. He is so good at what he does, and I just I miss going to him. And I thought I now I feel like I'm cheating on him. I do. I feel like I'm cheating on him every time I go to another hygienist.

SPEAKER_01

I understand that a hundred percent because I think both you and I are we're loyal people. And don't like change. And we once we settle in somewhere, it's like I don't want it to. I know. That's like if I went somewhere else and got my hair did, I would be That wouldn't feel right to you at all. It wouldn't feel right to me. If even if I went started going back to uh getting my nails done, I I couldn't go to somebody else other than my nail girl. I mean, you know, that's you know, it's like I had the same person who did my hair for 20-something years in Florida, you know, in Seabring. I couldn't, and I still sometimes like, I wish you were here. You know. Just move them here. And no, can you come here?

SPEAKER_00

Um so you know, it's um yeah. Okay, well, I was kind of the same way with I'm funny about the eye doctor, like you are the dentist. And I'm very flinchy. Like I've always said I could be a millionaire and an actress, and I would still insist on doing my own makeup because I don't think I could handle somebody trying to put lashes on me or anything. It would make me nuts. So it it was hard to find a new eye doctor. I did settle in with someone here, but I that was the one that I was afraid of. Because, you know, again, I watch a lot of horror movies, and there's a lot that, you know, where the eyes are being affected. So it gives me the wheelies. And I'm funny about my eyes. And your sweet husband just had cataract surgery, and he's out there doing pretty well.

SPEAKER_01

He has done amazing. I was expecting the worst, you know, man. But he has been really good and in a good mood.

SPEAKER_00

I think that's what I didn't. Well, they got that shower. Like you said, you know, we were talking about hygiene, and you said he had to wait 24 hours. Yeah. And that'd be hard. Especially as a woman, that'd be hard to wait 24 hours. Oh, trust me, I know. So I'm sure he's ecstatic that he got to shower.

SPEAKER_01

I'm I'm sure. I always cheated. When I was having my surgery on my prodig glands, I um always snuck and took a shower before I was technically allowed to, you know, but we would just like cover that place and then I couldn't wash my hair, and one of them I had dry blood in my hair, and I called my girl, who I love, CJ, and um she let me, you know, come in, scarred up, you know, stitches and all, come in and she helped, you know, wash my hair. I was so grateful Tyler came over and drove me, you know, over there and I know and stuff so that I could get my hair washed. And I just felt like a new person. Like, oh my God. You know, you just feel like it is funny how we take those things for granted. We do until we can't do it. And then it's like, oh no, where we that's like the day of his surgery, neither one of us ate, and then they had to postpone it, of course, delays, delays. So they had to postpone it by a couple of hours, and so neither one of us had had had anything to eat. We were both like starving. I didn't want to eat in front of him, you know, and all that stuff. But then like yesterday we could eat and we didn't want anything till after like two o'clock.

SPEAKER_00

Stacy, I'm such an asshole.

unknown

Wow.

SPEAKER_00

That could have been my husband, and I'd have been like, I'm gonna eat this pizza right in front of you, knowing you can't eat because you're the one having the surgery. No, I didn't make coffee because I didn't want him to smell the coffee and want it.

SPEAKER_01

I didn't Oh my god, I am an ass. You're an ass. I am an ass. I told you I'm the nurturer one. The nurturing one. I'm yeah, I care about I'd be like, I can eat and you can't.

SPEAKER_00

His feelings and his thoughts and how he He was more worried about that surgery. He didn't care. I don't think he'd have cared if you'd had a cup of coffee because he'd have wanted you alert to drive in there. Well, I was alert and get him home.

SPEAKER_01

But um, yes, but my sweet, sweet Jeff, that was the first time in his whole life he's ever had surgery. No, his whole life.

SPEAKER_00

Really?

SPEAKER_01

So we've talked about before on this show he's never had that's not really a surgery. No, it's not. It's a procedure.

SPEAKER_00

It's a procedure, you're right.

SPEAKER_01

Um, but anyway, he you know how we've had a show on here called Suggestions or Rules. Rules are suggestions. Well, you know, the surgery rules, nothing to eat, nothing to drink. Well, Mr. Precious believes a mint's not food. It's not, it's not food yesterday before the surgery because he he did tell the truth. I had a mint, you know, on the way here I had a mint, and um, you know, they could have not done a surgery because of that, but I mean they did, but it, you know, oh you're the mint, you know, after they let me go back there. So it was funny that it was a whole conversation, you know, that he'd had a mint. So I call I called a mint gate. Because it was just like everybody's ruined everything. Everybody's running around like, oh my god, he had a mint, he had a mint. What would have happened?

SPEAKER_00

I mean they would have canceled it. Well, I mean, aren't don't they primarily look for food in the stomach for whatever reason?

SPEAKER_01

Sometimes anesthesia caused nausea. So you don't want somebody throwing up. Yeah, okay, that's a big loser. Unconscious, you know, and or after having surgery, you don't want somebody throwing up because it takes all your muscles in your body to do it.

SPEAKER_02

I know.

SPEAKER_00

So and his coughing could blow that eyeball out. Ugh He he's doing so well. So I'm just grateful. Do you like him when he plays pirate now? I think he looks adorable. Do you have sc do you play like you have scurvy?

SPEAKER_01

I don't even know what scurvy is.

SPEAKER_00

It's a vitamin C deficiency.

SPEAKER_01

Something about malnutrition. I don't have that.

SPEAKER_00

I guess pirates got it because they were.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, here we go. I haven't eaten all day. Has he? No.

SPEAKER_00

Oh, okay. Well, I guess we're gonna go and feed them. We're gonna have to go. We just wanted to talk about hygiene a little bit. It started with the leg thing. I don't know, it just popped into my head like, you know, now when you see somebody it looks kind of grimy, you think, he looks like he doesn't wash his legs. That's where all this stemmed from. And I I can't believe that some people don't have hygiene habits. Like there's certain things like, you know, washing our hair every few days. We know exactly when it needs done.

SPEAKER_02

And I don't know.

SPEAKER_01

I know how many days of dry shampoo my hair all handle. And some days I push it. I admit that.

SPEAKER_00

I have pushed it way beyond, but where am I gonna go work? I don't care. Well, I'm going to the dentist tomorrow, so you know it was getting washed today because she'll be up in personal in my hairline, and I didn't couldn't handle that to think her thinking, what is that? I know. I had to be ready.

SPEAKER_01

I had to be cute and ready. Cute and ready. Well, if you wear less makeup and wear hair like that, you're gonna great.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, give me a reason to shave my legs. There it is. Are we looking for a man? No, again, I don't know. Looking for a man. I don't know. I keep saying no.

SPEAKER_01

We're looking for a reason to shave Brenda's. I'm looking for a reason to get a man. If you have a reason for Brenda to shave her legs, please email us at bstudios at myyahoo.com, reach out and do our DMs, send us a message. You'd have to be a special person. We're just looking for a man to make Brenda want to shave her legs. I know, and watch horror movies. And we watch horror movies with her. I know and drink wine. And drink wine and eat good food and read books. Yeah, I like a reader. All the nerds.

SPEAKER_00

I do like a reader. I love nerds. All the nerdy things. I know, and we'll all have to and if he's out there, we all have to go see the Mandalorian together when it comes out.

SPEAKER_02

All right.

SPEAKER_00
