Episode Transcript
[00:00:00] Speaker A: Welcome back to the she Said podcast with Amy and Lisa.
[00:00:03] Speaker B: 24.
[00:00:04] Speaker A: That's right. Wow.
[00:00:05] Speaker B: Although I felt like I just had an easy weekend, you know, it was Labor Day weekend, and it's kind of weird having a Tuesday. I feel like everything has to happen today.
[00:00:13] Speaker A: I know. So I feel that way, too. Taking a day off makes a big difference in your life. It does.
[00:00:19] Speaker B: Without a doubt.
[00:00:20] Speaker A: It was good, though. Good weather and.
[00:00:22] Speaker B: Yeah, but it was kind of. It was chilly, though. I was really. We had sweatshirt and sweatpants on at one point, so. But that's us in Oklahoma. You know, if it hits 70, we're freezing.
[00:00:33] Speaker A: That's true.
[00:00:33] Speaker B: Or I am.
[00:00:34] Speaker A: We're normally 110 on Labor Day weekend, so it's shocking to our system.
[00:00:39] Speaker B: I'll take the hot weather any day.
[00:00:41] Speaker A: You will.
Oh, I love fall.
[00:00:44] Speaker B: So I spent way too much time probably looking at TikTok and news and stuff like that. Did you hear about that lady?
She came on and she made a post. I do think it's an important post, and I actually shared it. I know I have been in situations at the gas station where, you know, a missionary, Mary or whatever has walked up to me and they wanted to hand me a business card. And really, at the time, I wasn't really thinking about how it could be laced with something. Well, a lady at Walmart, I don't remember the state, she came on and gave a huge talk about it, and a lady approached her saying she was a missionary and wanted to show her these couple of booklets that she had. And the lady had taken them carefully out of, like, some plastic wrap, handed them to her. And now the lady looking back at it, she's like, the lady only handled them at the top corner. She never handled the bottom of the booklet or anything. She handed her from the top corner, same way, put it back in her purse the same way. Shortly after that, she just starts feeling so dizzy and completely out of sorts. Nothing was making sense to her. She said, like, audibly, like, she heard God telling her, get to where there's a lot of people. Like, don't go isolate. Get to where there's a lot of people. So she moved over to the pharmacy, and apparently the pharmacist is like, yeah, this isn't the first time this has happened. And they had Narcan available for her in the meantime. She doesn't remember seeing this woman that handed her this booklet, like, on her phone, like, watching her almost like, giving her identity to whoever might be waiting for her in the parking lot. That being said, like I said, I know I've been approached in the park at quit trip multiple times when I've seen people walking around to pumps. Because that lady had initially said then, do you want to buy them? She said, no, thank you, and handed them back to her. But that's all they needed. They just needed her to touch it and become a victim. By the grace of God, she was spared and enough people were able to save her. But I mean, that's something like our kids need to know about.
We are not obligated always to be nice, courteous, because it will get you hurt anymore.
[00:02:48] Speaker A: What's scary, because you think about that whole dollar bill thing laying on the ground that's laced with. What's the drug that.
[00:02:54] Speaker B: Fentanyl.
[00:02:55] Speaker A: Fentany literally gets through your skin.
[00:02:58] Speaker B: And it will. I mean, there's been officers taken out by that. Just by opening the trunk of a car and it being on. I mean, it's very, very bad stuff.
[00:03:06] Speaker A: I always worry about that.
[00:03:08] Speaker B: Careful of that.
[00:03:08] Speaker A: You just don't do it now. Pretty scary that that's our world that we're living in right now.
[00:03:14] Speaker B: It is, yeah.
[00:03:15] Speaker A: Because they do really. I mean, I've had them where they like a blind person at the. Supposedly hand you something, and I just don't do it. I just don't take it well.
[00:03:24] Speaker B: And I've had somebody approach me at quick trip before when I was. I'd seen the man already looking, you know, going to people at their cars. And I mean, I'm not comfortable with that. That don't approach me.
[00:03:34] Speaker A: Yeah. At my car, I lecture them.
[00:03:36] Speaker B: Usually I screamed.
And I really, honest to goodness, was in the worst mood that day anyway, so I. But I had yelled back. I was like, get away from me. Do not come any closer. And to where? The woman next to me in her car looked over at me and he went back up on the curb. But I just immediately made a scene and was like, don't come any closer. I got nothing for you. Move away. And again, I hear really, really bad things that happen that people don't think about. So I'm a little extra cautious. So.
[00:04:09] Speaker A: Well, yeah, you do hear the stories, but I'm the same way. I tell them, leave me alone. And then I usually lecture them, especially if they ask a woman for help or for money. I'm like, you don't ask a woman no sor. Go ask a man. They're not gonna ask me. And they'll go, sorry, I just thought. I'm like, it doesn't matter, don't do it. I get really frustrated with them. Trips are the worst too.
[00:04:29] Speaker B: It has happened. Yeah.
[00:04:30] Speaker A: Today I stopped at one and I backed right out because he, as soon as he saw me, he starts heading. I was like nope. And I just left. It's like I don't need to deal with that. They need to figure that part out. I noticed the one thing is is.
[00:04:43] Speaker B: They'Re trying and I mean it's, it's tough.
[00:04:46] Speaker A: The one at 15th and Harvard, they've.
[00:04:49] Speaker B: Got big like yes.
[00:04:51] Speaker A: Balls all along the edge of those so they can't sit there.
[00:04:55] Speaker B: Yeah, they did that at the one over off of. Was it Denver?
[00:04:58] Speaker A: Oh, probably that one's bad. Yeah, it's too bad.
[00:05:02] Speaker B: So my friend, she had a say. My friend. I mean I've dealt with people with tick bites. My friend made a comment on this post and you heard about these people that have gotten a disease. What's that? Red meat disease.
[00:05:15] Speaker A: I don't know the name. I know what you're talking about.
[00:05:17] Speaker B: I've got it right here. It's. But it's common because you hear about it more than we should. Alpha Gal.
[00:05:23] Speaker A: Okay.
[00:05:24] Speaker B: Where you can no longer eat red meat.
[00:05:26] Speaker A: Right.
[00:05:26] Speaker B: Well I thought this was interesting because this lady said for seven and a half years she's lived with Alpha Gal comes from a tick bite and on August 22nd she traveled to Tulsa to go to relax renew medical massage to receive an electro acupuncture therapy. And she said that after an hour long procedure she can say that for the last nine days she has been eating red meat again. And it seems like almost everybody knows somebody with this Alpha Gal. And a friend of mine had made a comment in the post who said she too has a friend who has just done this treatment and it's healed her. Like if you know somebody. This place apparently is doing something that's helping reset the vagus nerve and really helping people with tick bites.
[00:06:08] Speaker A: There's a lot of places popping up in Tulsa that I've been looking into that do the whole light and sound therapy.
[00:06:15] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:06:15] Speaker A: To kind of reset your. Whatever it is, they reset your body. There's a place at like 51st and Harvard that actually is friends with Karen and they. You walk. It's a room of just like oversized, almost like a movie theater. The big chairs and they have down this, down each wall are layers of television or they look like t old fashioned TV monitors and on those are just like all these different static. Oh, interesting static. And then they have this sound playing kind of like that app that you've talked about.
[00:06:51] Speaker B: Yes, Z app.
[00:06:52] Speaker A: And so anyway, I mean, there's a video on their website about a guy that was going through cancer treatment and it completely changed his healing from treatment frequencies. Yeah, again, that's a whole concept of it. So it's.
[00:07:04] Speaker B: What is this place called? Do we know?
[00:07:06] Speaker A: Yes. I don't know the name, but I'll look it up and tell you.
[00:07:09] Speaker B: I'll make a note of that. 51st in Harvard. 51st in Harvard is where you said it is. Okay, that's interesting.
[00:07:15] Speaker A: I know. I thought we should go try it actually.
[00:07:17] Speaker B: Yeah, that'd be really fun.
[00:07:19] Speaker A: There's a lot of that that seems to be kind of, you know, there's such a wellness thing happening with hyperbaric chambers and.
[00:07:26] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:07:27] Speaker A: Red light therapy. Red light saunas.
[00:07:29] Speaker B: I think people are making a change and they're getting to be more open to how bad the outside forces are destroying us. Like meaning, you know, pharmaceuticals and that there is a better way to look into healing.
[00:07:44] Speaker A: Speaking of that, Europe just banned gel nails, really? Because of a product that's in the gel nail that's actually really, according to their testing, severely damaging to your health. So September 1st, there's no test. None of the salons can carry gel nail polish.
[00:08:03] Speaker B: Wow. I mean, I've seen videos where people have like really destroyed their nails with even the like the gel glue, like the burning, the chemical burn that it puts between the nail and the tip. Because once that light hits it to bake the. The gel glue, it just activates this fire under their nail that some people are super sensitive to and some aren't, but. Yeah, that's interesting.
[00:08:31] Speaker A: Yeah, other countries.
No, they're saying that not being banned in the US Isn't worried about it. No.
[00:08:38] Speaker B: Nah.
[00:08:38] Speaker A: But other countries are way far ahead of us in a lot of things that are banned or just the way their FDA approves things that approved here that they would never approve in other countries. I mean, I buy my dog food from Canada because they're stricter on their approval of dog food versus what they us they feed dogs, whatever. And they don't do that in other countries.
[00:09:00] Speaker B: She gets her food from Canada.
[00:09:03] Speaker A: Well, have you looked at her? Have you seen her? Of course she does.
She's a very picky eater.
[00:09:09] Speaker B: Of course she does. That's funny.
[00:09:12] Speaker A: Well, and we talked about last week, I mean, I'm doing everything possible to be clean and eat the right stuff and use the right products. And because it does, I mean, everything causes cancer. I'm Telling you, I know it's a little scary.
[00:09:27] Speaker B: And you had mentioned to me the other day something about the dishwasher pods.
[00:09:30] Speaker A: Oh, yeah. So they.
I was listening to an interview with this woman that was talking about we put plastic. I mean, they're wrapped in plastic. It's the same concept of, you know, putting plastic in your microwave.
Those same. That same plastic is melting. Cause it's gotta melt to get the detergent out. So all that is landing and all the contaminants are landing on your dishes.
[00:09:53] Speaker B: Well, and I've seen where there are people who have had really horrible sickness from the power wash, from the dawn Power wash from. I guess it not coming off enough. And it just made them so sick. And it took them a while to figure out what was going on. What chemical was really hitting them, detergent in their house or whatever. And it was the dawn power wash. But I've seen videos where you people where they take a can, like a Coke can, and they leach it down somehow through series of chemicals. I don't remember what they do, but to see how the can is actually has a plastic lining. I can't unsee that. Now that I have seen that. You just realize. And you know how, you know, Coke will like eat through battery, right? Build up. So yeah, I mean, the cans have this plastic lining. It's really interesting to see if somebody can research it and find out the video I'm talking about. Because it turns clear. The can turns clear.
[00:10:45] Speaker A: So when you think about even bottled water, I mean.
[00:10:48] Speaker B: Oh, I know.
[00:10:49] Speaker A: I mean, I always laugh when I pull up to a store and there's. There's stacks of cases of water sitting outside because heat and water don't go together.
And you think about those bottles, the acid.
[00:11:03] Speaker B: I feel something different when I drink that. I'll get like an acid reflux.
Especially when I've been on my. Like obviously just my distilled water, which I got my new one plugged in my new distiller and it works fantastic. It's great. And it came with a glass, A glass pitcher. Not plastic. Because that was the one thing I was going to reuse off my other one. Man, I love it. I mean, it works. I've tested my water. It still comes out at zero. I'm super happy with it, so. And I paid a lot less money for it than my last one.
We'll see if it holds up as long as it did.
[00:11:35] Speaker A: It is crazy though, that. I mean, I think everything causes cancer.
[00:11:38] Speaker B: But see this lady the other day. So I guess she did some.
Really. Some new scan that's been on her mind for a long time to get it done. And she said she was more. And this is a really cool lady on. On Instagram. And she went with her husband, and she was really expecting something to come out on him. Well, she's like, well, I kind of find out I have a tumor at the base of my skull. She's not really had any symptoms. I mean, and now she's like, well, I guess looking back when I look at, like, symptoms that can be.
I mean, but there's also. I mean, headaches can come with anything. I mean that, you know.
[00:12:16] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:12:16] Speaker B: Just. But I'm just. So now she's going to go through all the series of. And that's where I'm like, man, are we trying to discover too much on ourselves? Where we end up interfering with. Hey, maybe this wasn't gonna.
Wasn't going to be anything. I don't know. I don't know how to.
[00:12:32] Speaker A: I think the words.
[00:12:33] Speaker B: But yeah, I'm just like, maybe some things I think could be left alone. Maybe not. I know nothing about that.
[00:12:40] Speaker A: But I saw an interview with a doctor not too long ago, a couple months ago, where he was saying, everybody's going, all these influencers are doing that Nuovo body scan, full body scan.
[00:12:51] Speaker B: It was some kind of scan.
[00:12:52] Speaker A: And they're finding cysts and getting them. And then they're going in and getting them cut out, and no, thank you. And he's like, you know what?
No, because it. You're just opening yourself up to a lot of different issues that just.
[00:13:06] Speaker B: To whatever's in that.
[00:13:07] Speaker A: Yeah. If you're not having symptoms, not that you want to wait. I mean, that's a fine line. Because there is a. Like, if somebody told me I was going to have the cancer I had, I would have done it before. I would have had surgery immediately, and I wouldn't have probably had to go through treatment. So the longer you wait, the. The more severe. And I get all that. So it's that fine line. But, man, I do think we're opening ourselves up to issues that aren't necessarily. Let's just chill for a minute and see what happens. But he's like, man, it's. It's leading into a lot of other issues.
[00:13:42] Speaker B: Opening a can of worms that didn't need to be open.
[00:13:45] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:13:45] Speaker B: So, yeah, I totally believe that. I'm like, I almost really would rather just not know.
[00:13:51] Speaker A: I mean, well, the head game does play with you. So sometimes not knowing is actually pretty Peaceful.
[00:13:56] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:13:56] Speaker A: Because knowing is not fun. So I made this granola over the weekend. That one. A client had given me the recipe that's got. It's. It's more of a healthy granola made by a chef that works with a local. Or not a local. Yeah, a TV person. That TV chef. And it's got, like, cashews and sunflower seeds, and so it ends up being about 10 grams of protein per serving. But it called for coconut oil, and I used to use coconut oil for everything. I used a cold press, organic, called skinny Coconut. It's the best coconut oil. And I did it. I mean, I gave it for gifts I used. I just swore by it, and I kind of got away from that. But I had to buy coconut oil for this granola mix, by the way, which was, like, crazy good. I had to give it away because I just was like, it's so good.
[00:14:44] Speaker B: Where's my bag?
[00:14:45] Speaker A: Yeah.
Yeah. Your gift is weird. It didn't get here.
Anyway, I had to buy coconut oil, so. Reminded me how great coconut oil is for so many things. It's a great makeup. Makeup remover. It's great to put on your face after you take off your makeup. It's just so natural and healing for.
[00:15:03] Speaker B: Like, oil pulling in your mouth.
[00:15:05] Speaker A: Yeah. Oh, yeah.
Great for that. Helps with bacteria and. But then it reminded me how it's so easy to shave your legs with it because you don't even have to have water. It's so easy. So I did that this week, and I'm like, oh, man, I forgot how great coconut oil is. Yeah, it's crazy. It's really good.
You can get in a tub. The skinny coconut that I bought forever comes in a glass jar.
[00:15:29] Speaker B: So it's a. It's already solidified.
[00:15:30] Speaker A: Solidified. And if you. If you keep it at room temperature, it's going to stay solidified. If it gets, like, in the summertime, if your house gets warmer.
[00:15:37] Speaker B: Right.
[00:15:37] Speaker A: It'll drop. You know, it'll become liquid, but it stays solidified. It's the best for everything.
[00:15:43] Speaker B: Okay.
[00:15:43] Speaker A: Put on your hands. Put on your legs as a moisturizer.
[00:15:47] Speaker B: All right.
[00:15:48] Speaker A: Plus, yeah. Putting the. Brushing your teeth with it. I mean, you can do so much with it. Yeah, it's the best. And it tastes and smells amazing.
[00:15:55] Speaker B: So. Okay. I do like coconut, but, yeah, that.
[00:15:58] Speaker A: That granola was, like, killer, so I need that recipe. Yeah, it's amazing.
[00:16:03] Speaker B: Easy to make.
[00:16:04] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:16:05] Speaker B: Okay. Yeah.
[00:16:06] Speaker A: So easy.
The hardest part was finding all the. The right nuts to go in it.
[00:16:12] Speaker B: Okay.
[00:16:12] Speaker A: A different kind of it would go.
[00:16:14] Speaker B: To, like sprouts or somewhere and go to their nut area.
[00:16:17] Speaker A: They had cashews and sunflower seeds and pumpkin seeds and sesame seeds.
[00:16:21] Speaker B: Good.
[00:16:22] Speaker A: It was really good. And coconut. Shaved unsweetened coconut. Really, really good. So that just made me want more coconut oil because it's so good for.
[00:16:31] Speaker B: Your skin and let you know how it goes. Yeah, I keep seeing how I've not tried it, but I am going to number top of my list to do is they keep talking about, you know, when our skin barrier is damaged. I'm seeing this a lot. And they're saying especially like, even with older skin, when the makeup starts kind of creasing and, you know, looking all cracky, they say it's because your skin barrier needs to be repaired. They say that putting like diaper rash, the. The zinc oxide on your face and slathering it in that diaper rash cream. Diaper rash cream, like the Destitin. You can go get the Equate brand or they said even the Dollar Tree has it like a 40% generally. I think it comes in like a 10 or 13 extra strength would be 40% anyways. And you literally coat your face in it. You can sleep in it overnight. They said just protect your pillow with a towel or something. Truly the repair that your skin will have from that and that will have from that, depending on what you need.
So if you kind of research, like what does a broken skin barrier look like? It kind of comes in all different kind of different forms. But, you know, people have really rough acne, then their skin just looks kind of chafed and beat up. That. That was a. Some of the pictures I saw come up and of course just the older skin that gets just dried out and all that. So anyways, they say it makes a huge difference. So I want to do that. And then I want a dermaplane on it. And I'm gonna make my skin like a baby's butt.
So we'll see how that works. But I'm anxious to do it.
[00:18:05] Speaker A: Well, that reminds me, I was reading that you should put, you know, the. What is it? The stuff you spray on your makeup when you're done? That.
[00:18:13] Speaker B: Oh, the. A setting spray.
[00:18:15] Speaker A: Yeah, that. You should actually use the setting spray first and then put your foundation on. And that keeps that this is not healing your skin, but it keeps your makeup from cracking and falling into here.
[00:18:26] Speaker B: When I have to go somewhere like that, I really need it to last. I will just do different layers of it. Like I'll. I'll. I've done that. Then do, like, my foundation. I spray it again. And I will say, like, that will. You are locked in for sure. Locked in if you do layers of it.
So. But there are some new ones out there that I keep hearing. Like, I think, like, Elf has one now. Like, that's called grip. Maybelline has come out with a new one that's a makeup primer. That is. And apparently they're, like, sticky, but it is made to make your makeup grip and stay.
I like that l' Oreal Infallible Setting spray. And it's like a hairspray. So don't breathe because I'm sure you're gonna get cancer. Probably cheapest way. I mean, I've bought all the expensive ones and whatever. I mean, it is doing the same thing.
[00:19:18] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:19:19] Speaker B: So worth a try for sure.
[00:19:21] Speaker A: I could open my own drugstore with the products I have that I don't use. I know, it's ridiculous. Well, speaking of that, Aquaphor for weight loss. Have you heard about that?
[00:19:31] Speaker B: I've never heard of that.
[00:19:32] Speaker A: I haven't done in a while. But when I was working out the boxing gym.
[00:19:35] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:19:35] Speaker A: All the fighters do it to drop weight.
[00:19:38] Speaker B: Really?
[00:19:39] Speaker A: And the key, the thing that's.
[00:19:40] Speaker B: Wait, what do they do with it?
[00:19:41] Speaker A: Oh, Aquaphor. So, you know, you just lather it on your body? All over your body.
[00:19:46] Speaker B: No, I had no idea.
[00:19:48] Speaker A: And so you're. Then it helps them drop water weight.
[00:19:50] Speaker B: Because they wrap themselves, too. Or some of them just put it on. They just go.
[00:19:54] Speaker A: Gym clothes. Yeah. Or smeared all over your legs if you're trying to tone your legs. And the crazy part about that is that you don't really ever. Like, you're not. It's not like, what, you're losing water weight. You're going to gain it right back the next day.
[00:20:04] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:20:05] Speaker A: If you continue to do it, the way just stays off. But, like, if you really are trying, you've got some trouble spots to put them on. Like, and then wrap it with, like, some kind of wrap. Saran wrap, whatever you want to put on it.
[00:20:16] Speaker B: Plastic sweatsuits. Remember that?
[00:20:17] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Then I did see people working out with those in there after they put the stuff on. But you. You really do it. You sweat. Like, it's kind of crazy. Oh, I just. I was looking at Aquaphor, and I mean, people use it for, like, highlighter on your cheekbones because it can just hurt that glassy.
[00:20:37] Speaker B: Well, maybe I heard people say. And put it underneath your eyes if your concealer cracks or if you have like that, that Aquaphor which I can't imagine because I'm so greasy. It just naturally oily. So I don't know how that would do for me. But I do need to try it because I have some by my night.
[00:20:52] Speaker A: I used to buy it by the tub load when I was working out.
[00:20:55] Speaker B: In there when you would think it would break you out. And it does not like anytime I've had a skin treatment done, a laser or anything like they say put Aquaphor in your skin which you're just like what? Really? But it is real soothing and it works and it does not break you out.
[00:21:07] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:21:08] Speaker B: So I do believe in that.
[00:21:10] Speaker A: Yeah, it worked. It worked in there. I mean I watched a guy's smear an aquaphor all over their body when they were in there getting ready to train.
[00:21:18] Speaker B: And were you like, do you need help?
[00:21:20] Speaker A: No, I didn't ever. I promise you.
[00:21:22] Speaker B: No. Lisa being a pervert at the gym.
[00:21:26] Speaker A: That was not the group that I wanted to smear off before on. I promise you. That's funny.
[00:21:33] Speaker B: Oh well.
[00:21:34] Speaker A: And then I washed my hair today.
[00:21:36] Speaker B: Yes. By the filter yet?
[00:21:38] Speaker A: Not yet. Okay, well you need to get the filter anyway. I always rinse my hair with cold water and my hairdresser does it when she's rinsing out. Rinses the toner.
So I tone my hair when I wash it with a purple mousse to keep yellow yellowish. Yeah. Anyway, so I just. Today I was thinking. Oh yeah, I forgot to washing it and cold. I think it's does better. I think it holds better.
[00:22:03] Speaker B: It seals those edges.
[00:22:04] Speaker A: I mean everything does works better.
[00:22:06] Speaker B: Think about, even if we put cold water on us, what do we do? We shrivel at freezing. So your hair is doing the same thing?
[00:22:11] Speaker A: Yeah. I mean technically summertime it's not that cold because our water just doesn't stay that cold in the summer with all the heat. But the winter time putting cold rinsing your hair in cold water will make you scream a little bit.
[00:22:21] Speaker B: Yeah. My sister used to torture me at that when I was little and I never believed her. And then later I learned it was true. But speaking of that shriveling up it I saw a thing about. They were talking about how toxic perfume is. They. There was a plant. I'm almost dying to try this myself. And they just sprayed a few sprays of perfume on the plant leaf and that plant leaf just died out. I mean it withered it. It was done. Wow.
[00:22:47] Speaker A: I haven't worn.
I haven't worn perfume. I Thought you were gonna say wow.
I was going to.
[00:22:53] Speaker B: I was like, ah, she'll just delete it anyway. Wow.
[00:22:58] Speaker A: I wore a perfume, obviously, forever. And then when I was going through chemo, I couldn't stand the smell of it. And to this day, I cannot stand the smell. Perfume.
[00:23:08] Speaker B: It changed. I started using that riddle oil.
I don't know if it's any better for you, but it's.
That's what I use now.
[00:23:16] Speaker A: I use the magnolia oil shower oil. I use that during the day as perfume. And I get more comments on how I smell.
[00:23:25] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:23:26] Speaker A: From that. I just won't ever use one.
Moulin Rouge is my favorite now. I kind of go through. I switch it up a lot. But that's kind of my go to now.
[00:23:35] Speaker B: Okay.
[00:23:35] Speaker A: I always wore retreat and then my mom loved it and I put it on her when she was sick. And so now I can't.
[00:23:41] Speaker B: No, you can't.
[00:23:42] Speaker A: No. So in fact, I accidentally sprayed some on me one morning and I literally was like holding my nose to run wash it off because I knew I couldn't handle that.
But I don't. I can't imagine perfume now. Like, I can smell it on other people and I'm just like, not today, but I have in the past and I really.
[00:24:03] Speaker B: And it was. Because it's just a little bitty rollerball and I don't. Because I don't squirt it on my clothes. I don't. Because I remember when my kid was doing that, I'm like, that's got to get. Like, I hit it. I'm like, I can't take the smell of it. It's too much. Can't deal with it.
[00:24:14] Speaker A: I can almost smell the alcohol in it. When I. Not yours, but just people. When I smell. When I smell.
Smell perfume, I'm. I can. I can smell the breakdown of product. Like, it's.
[00:24:24] Speaker B: Yeah, that's how it was for me after Covid with all kinds of stuff. I could just smell different layers, details of it. Or smell.
[00:24:30] Speaker A: Yeah. Before.
[00:24:31] Speaker B: But I. But I could, you know, now it's different.
[00:24:35] Speaker A: I did see that somebody was saying to spray the perfume on your hairbrush and brush it through your hair. Don't spray your hair. You know, a lot of people spray and then walk through it. They say, don't do that because it mixes with your hair product and you don't want perfume on your head.
So just to spray it on your hair, brush and then brush it through because it's going to be a more subtle, lighter smell to spray My hair? No, no, I don't think I did that.
[00:25:01] Speaker B: Big of a heavy user. But yeah. When my kids were discovering cologne, I was like, yeah, I cannot have my house smell like a locker room.
[00:25:10] Speaker A: No, we're done here with this. I went through a phase where I could. The perfume I loved couldn't find at only certain places. So when I would find it, I would buy it. I ended up with tons of bottles of perfume when I was diagnosed and I could never use it again. So I, I gave my friends that I knew liked it. I mean, I was giving perfume out forever.
[00:25:31] Speaker B: I'm sure they were sad about that.
[00:25:32] Speaker A: Oh, like the thought of it just nauseated me for sure.
Did you hear on the news, this is so sad. But it's just an epidemic. I think that we're just continuing to see is this little 11 year old that got shot and killed because he was doing the door knocking prank from Tick Tock.
[00:25:49] Speaker B: No, I have no idea about that.
[00:25:51] Speaker A: They just arrested the guy today for manslaughter. The guy that killed him, but they shot him because he rang his doorbell. So I don't know the story of like what the timeline was, but 11 years old doing a Tick Tock prank.
[00:26:04] Speaker B: And it is, it's so frustrating because, you know, these kids want to go out and have fun and do like what we did back in the 70s and 80s of TPing. But things have gone so far beyond. And I know for a fact, like just recently, even at a friend's house. And it's. And it's a, it's a trend. It's a trend among all kinds of kids that they.
And these are kids from great families too. I mean, but they had on, they put on ski masks and they went to homes and they hoard everything from super cans of tomato sauce to syrup, milk, chicken feet and put it all over their driveways. But from their cameras, all they knew is they see three or four men, boys, whatever you want to call them, in ski masks, dousing their house driveway with stuff.
[00:26:56] Speaker A: And as far as.
[00:26:57] Speaker B: And they know is like, that could be gasoline. Someone's fixing to set our house on fire. And like, yeah, crazy things happen. It's not beyond the realm of.
And it's just like man. And what terrified them was how easily it could have turned into, you know, homeowner shooting somebody. Or like just absolute devastation could have played out in that situation. God, people are so crazy anymore. And they. There are hardly any. They're battling so many demons.
[00:27:25] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:27:26] Speaker B: That they, they are just checked out of reality. When it comes to even dealing with almost anything anymore, I like, I do not want my kids ding dong ditching. I know they'll do that to their uncle or poor uncle has gotten from him several times, but I've even worn that. I'm like, I think Jody knows it's probably is going to be his nephews doing it, but I don't like it. I don't want them doing it at all.
[00:27:47] Speaker A: But it's such a sad state that we're in that when we did it when we were little, we all did it and it was funny and no one thought anything.
[00:27:55] Speaker B: I mean, we ran out there, people. There weren't cameras where the homeowners could freak out. I was like, you went, you TP'd, you left.
[00:28:00] Speaker A: And there was no fear.
[00:28:01] Speaker B: Like, they're like, they're literally destroying property. That doesn't.
[00:28:05] Speaker A: Well, that's.
[00:28:05] Speaker B: I mean, like, it is.
Because I know that stuff took multiple pressure washers and things like that to come up. It's just. It is sad. Things have gone so much farther than they need to. Just. We need to talk to our kids about the dangers of what could happen.
[00:28:18] Speaker A: It's not the same. And I was thinking more along the line that poor kids ringing the doorbell, what? And running. We all did it as little kids, and there was no fear behind that. It was just funny. But now you have to fear for your life that who's behind the door, really, because everybody's panicked.
[00:28:33] Speaker B: If everybody.
[00:28:33] Speaker A: Somebody was ringing my door, well, I wouldn't. I wouldn't shoot them first and ask questions later, probably, if it was just one doorbell ring and gone. But I think about those guys in my backyard. The thought afterwards was scary of what could have happened. And I think that's what people are fearful of because there is so much craziness.
[00:28:51] Speaker B: One bad sudden move or, you know, that's all everyone's. One sudden move away from something traumatic happening.
[00:28:58] Speaker A: Yeah, it's really sad. I hate that for the whole thing.
[00:29:01] Speaker B: No, I have not heard that story. And that is terrible.
[00:29:03] Speaker A: Just saw his mug shot today, the guy, and they said manslaughter. I don't know how all that works. What. You know, what they consider manslaughter, I guess because he wasn't threatened. It wasn't threatening his body. So it. I don't know.
[00:29:14] Speaker B: I don't know either.
Any of that.
[00:29:17] Speaker A: I didn't read the article because sometimes that's just too much. But really sad. So we're ending on a sad note. We need a.
[00:29:24] Speaker B: We need a happy story. How? Well, I don't. I don't know. Off the top of my head.
[00:29:30] Speaker A: That got depressing really fast.
[00:29:31] Speaker B: Talks about everything I've learned this week. Always fighting age.
[00:29:35] Speaker A: I know.
[00:29:35] Speaker B: Sadly, other than that, I don't think I have anything.
[00:29:39] Speaker A: Nothing to offer the top of my.
[00:29:40] Speaker B: Head that I can think of. Probably when we leave here, I'll think of other stuff, but we'll save it for next week. If I think of.
[00:29:46] Speaker A: Good idea. You'll have a bunch. We'll see you next week. Okay. Bye.
[00:29:50] Speaker B: Adios.
