In this episode of Unsolicited Perspectives, Bruce Anthony and his sister J. Aundrea are back with their Sibling Happy Hour fun, bringing a mix of laughs and real talk. They kick things off with some relatable struggles—Bruce’s foot pain and a few pedicure disasters—before diving into the all-important hunt for comfy shoes as they get older.

Things take a turn when J. Aundrea shares her experience at a Kamala Harris rally in Georgia, where Usher made a surprise appearance! They chat about the vibe of the event, voter turnout, and how crucial it is to stay informed on political issues like restrictive voting laws and abortion access.

But it doesn’t stop there. Bruce and J. Aundrea also dish out some personal hygiene tips, from bathroom habits to keeping your sheets clean (seriously, it matters). They manage to blend hilarious moments with useful advice, all while reminding you to stay engaged, vote, and of course, support the show. It's an episode full of laughs, insight, and a little bit of everything in between! #kamalaharris #getoutthevote #aging #hygienetips #unsolicitedperspectives

Kamala Harris Rally Insights

00:00:32
Speaker
your enemies.
00:00:32
Speaker
On today's episode, it's the Sibling Happy Y'all. I'm here with my sis, Jay Andrea. We're gonna be dilly-dallying a little bit. Then Jay went to Kamala Harris' rally yesterday in Atlanta, and then we're gonna talk about weird questions and weird facts. But that's enough of the intro.

Foot Pain and Aging Challenges

00:00:49
Speaker
Let's get to the show.
00:00:58
Speaker
What sis? What up, Brennan? I can call it. Apparently I saw the rundown and it had a big letters. I can call it. I can call it. Normally I say I can't call it and you called me out last week saying, well, you can call it. And I was like, okay, I guess I can call it. Um, my feet hurt.
00:01:19
Speaker
Okay. ah straer Like, I know I've always had plantar fasciitis and it comes on every now and then. If y'all don't know what that is, basically, is your feet hurt. Honestly, it's basically your feet hurt. Yeah, that's basically what it is. It's not much that you could do about it.
00:01:36
Speaker
And it's increasingly bad the older that I get. Now, I'm taking off some weight and I'm thinking that's helping. It does not help that I got tennis shoes that basically have no more soles to them. And those I use as my walker shoes. I probably should get better shoes, but my feet hurt. they They hurt like I get out of the bed in the morning and I put my feet in the ground and I'm limping. I'm limping for a good couple of hours. Now, where is the pain? Pain is in the heels.
00:02:05
Speaker
Okay, so if you remember, I had heel spurs. I had surgery and it ah they destroyed the Achilles on both of my heels. So if you remember correctly, I had surgery on both of my Achilles and to remove the bone spurs. Well, our brother who had similar pain went to a podiatrist, also has bone spurs.
00:02:33
Speaker
So you might want to check that out. It was clearly something we have inherited. How the hell all of us got them, I don't know. But if the pain is in your heels and it feels like your Achilles are tight, if they would go to the podiatrist. My Achilles is always tight. Yeah, go to the podiatrist. Yeah, no, but hold on though. Yeah. Hold on. You said you had surgery.
00:02:56
Speaker
Yes, on both ankles. Well, where were you? No, no, no. I remember this, but what caused you to have the surgery? Was it a your Achilles or the heel spurs? Did the heel spurs weaken the Achilles? The heel spurs weaken the Achilles. I didn't know I had heel spurs. I just knew that in the morning when I woke up, I couldn't walk. Like, you couldn't walk at all. I couldn't walk. It just hurts. Yeah, I have to take some time and let my ankles warm up.

Seasonal Changes and Wardrobe Humor

00:03:24
Speaker
yeah Like I had to slowly put my feet down and slowly like like lay the heel down onto the ground while my ankle, and then I could walk. But before that, but what happened was I was at her aunt's house and I went to jump in her pool and I jumped off on one foot and I just felt, ooh.
00:03:48
Speaker
pop and I just was under the water. yeah I was just under the water and I said, this is my time. and The Lord's calling me home because what in the pain, immediate pain was that? um Okay, now let's let's let's talk about this, okay?
00:04:08
Speaker
we have established throughout your entire lifetime that you have no tolerance for pain. Because Kobe Bryant snapped his Achilles in the game and still went and shot free throws and made them. Kobe Bryant was more than a human.
00:04:24
Speaker
This is true. This is true. Shut up. His desire to compete and to win just overshadowed any pain that he felt in his body. Rest in peace, Kobe Bryant. Kobe Bryant. Rest in peace. And what was his daughter's name? Gianna. Gianna. Oh, my God. I tell you, that's when Kobe passed. That's when the world burned.
00:04:54
Speaker
A little bit, yeah. Yeah, that's when it stopped. All right, so that's got me nervous, but it's not all the time. I think it's increasingly, it's been this week in particular because I'm taking care of my neighbor's dogs, so I'm walking the dogs three times a day. So on top of my normal workout where I walk on the incline, on top of my normal evening walks where I walk three miles, I'm also doing three additional 20 minute walks. That's probably adding, I don't know, 5,000 to 6,000 steps.
00:05:23
Speaker
I mean, you're in shape, so walking shouldn't be that painful for you. It is. It should be or could be painful when you ain't got good shoes. You should also get good shoes to walk in. Stop walking in old Jordans. First of all... No, no, no. I'm not even walking my Jordans.
00:05:43
Speaker
I would never dare. I said old, old. I don't have no... Well, all my drawings are old now, but none of them are worn. So that's what you mean by old. Like, I don't... You don't have walk and shoot. You better get yourself... Yeah, I got the walkinggan shoot was the so them said they're my Adidas. I can't walk in my Pumas. My Pumas are for strictly for running. And let me tell you, no, can't walk in Pumas. We are getting older, which means New Balance and ASICS. Well, I'll get some ASICS. I'm not getting no New Balance, because New Balance is too much of a DC thing, and I hate it.
00:06:13
Speaker
Listen, they're good shoots. What are students? Yeah, they give you good arch support. I'm gonna get them hokas. What's the hokas? The hokas too. I think I have a pair of hokas also. So yes, they are incredibly ugly, but guess what? They feel amazing walking in them. So yeah, you gotta get, listen, we getting up there. We gotta start taking care of our feet. Who are you telling? You go ahead and sit down and a chair with wheels on it.

Hygiene Habits and Anecdotes

00:06:43
Speaker
Somebody said to me the other day that we were talking and I had seen something on their Instagram stories and I guess I forgot that I seen something on Instagram stories and they had gone away on a trip and I thought it was vacation and they're like no it was a work trip like I was at like a work convention and I was like oh yeah I did see something about your company and he he started busting out laughing. I was like, I didn't think what I said was that funny. Like he was hysterically laughed laughing, like losing breath. So I didn't think what I said was that funny. He's like, it's just the way you said it. And you said it like an old man. It's weird looking at you yeah and hearing old man stuff come out. And I was like, well, hello. I am 44. Yeah. Listen, so.
00:07:27
Speaker
so ah ah my one of my nieces hit me on her birthday is tomorrow. And she wanted a cute outfit for school. And and I said, I told her, I can't order nothing to get here by Monday. I said, we gonna have to go to the mall? And I just started thinking about the amount of walking.
00:07:57
Speaker
going in and out of stores. You know, last time I did that, I was her age. Like, I was a teenager. Like, I can't remember the last time I had to walk around the mall. And I'm like, well, I got to get my shoes with the rubber soles. and
00:08:16
Speaker
Now, I did go to the mall probably about a year ago. Okay. Because I had to get some clothes. Okay. Oh, no. Wow, it might have been two years ago. It might have been three years ago. But like, there's a mall that's, there's a giant mall that's not that far for me. Yeah. And you like go there and a lot of times I have to try on clothes because something may seem like it will fit, but don't fit. Right. Because I got weird, I got a weird shaped body sometimes. It's true.
00:08:45
Speaker
faster It's true. How are you going to have big shoulders, a big chest, a small waist, big hips, a big booty, skinny calves? The that go on in my body are just like, how is this possible? That's probably the reason why my feet hurt. It might be, but you know a simple x-ray will tell you if you've got bone spurs or not.
00:09:10
Speaker
Yeah, well, all right. Let's go into the doctor and I guess, okay. I'm getting older. Yeah. yeah another sign Another sign that I don't like of me getting older is, you know, during the summertime, I get i get darker, you know what I'm saying? I get that nice dark caramel complexion. I love it. It's starting to get cold outside. Yes.
00:09:36
Speaker
And the color in my skin is dissolved at a faster pace than it normally does. And it feels like I'm lighter than I normally am. For what I call the winter whites.
00:09:53
Speaker
that
00:09:57
Speaker
They say don't wear white after Labor Day, but you can't help it when it's your skin. to
00:10:05
Speaker
yeah fourth by we so I get so hell. Yeah. Starting in October. That's not, it's not fair. It's not fair. And I stay pale yeah until a good April, May. yeah um me and yeah de melllinin I it's not activated. it just seems and It's dormant. and And the crazy thing is you're down south, like your winters don't get that wintery. It's chilly. Well, it's chilly to me because I've been here now almost 10 years. So I've become acclimated to the weather, you know, I'm here. And no, as soon as it dropped to about 65,
00:10:54
Speaker
I'm like, whoosh, it's cold. like And then i put I had a giant jacket on, a big like winter coat on when I was walking the dogs. And my neighbor was like, it's not that cold. He's out there in a hoodie. And he's like, it's not that cold. And I mean, I had hood up, zipped all the way up. I'm like, I'm freezing. I turned the heat on. And I tried not to. e I said, I'm not going to turn this heat on until December.
00:11:22
Speaker
I turned the heat on. You even got no choice. You got them hardwood floors. Yes, it's cold in here. It's cold. It gets cold. But check this out, though. You know, I'm in D.C. Yeah. And D.C.'s got... We're at that time of year where there are 17 different seasons in a day for D.C. Yes. I woke up this morning to go walk those... I'll tell you about that on the rally, at the rally. Okay. I woke up this morning to go walk the dogs. It was 8 o'clock. 43 degrees. I had on a winter coat.
00:11:51
Speaker
Yeah. OK. By the time I went to go do my morning walk around 10, it's about 54 degrees. I'm like, OK, I could just go out here in the sweatshirt. By the time I finish my walk by 11, I'm like, oh, I'm starting to sweat a little bit in this sweatshirt. But then I get out the shower and I'm cold again. So that's the reason why I got sweatshirt on now. Yeah. By this afternoon, I think it's going to hit 70. Yeah.
00:12:16
Speaker
And then in the evening again, it's going to drop down to 40. Yeah. I hate it here sometimes. Yeah, that's Atlanta. That's Atlanta. Oh, OK. It does it. It does it. It's also, you know, I feel like that's got some dual climate change. I don't know what, but I feel like something's in there. Well, the rising of the temperatures, yes.

Southern Childhood and Health Discussions

00:12:37
Speaker
But my age has to do with the fact that I'm cold all the damn time. Yes. OK. My iron's low.
00:12:45
Speaker
i think I just told you, I just told you I had to get my iron back up because I hadn't been eating red meat. And I was like, why is my facial hair thin? And why am I not losing weight? Why am I so damn tired? Because I was iron deficient. My iron was on zero. Yes. Because I don't eat no beans. All I need is spinach. I don't eat no beans. I don't eat no beans. I don't eat no beans. I don't eat vegetables either. I'm an adult, which means I can do what I want. And that involves eating vegetables, except for spinach. I will eat spinach. Well, that's one of the best vegetables that you can eat.
00:13:17
Speaker
But the other day I made a ribeye, even though ah half of it I gave to the dogs, um but the other half I did eat, so I thought that warmed me up a little bit. No, one half, one ribeye, one time, it is not enough to raise my iron levels. Well, there are- My house. Well, there are reasons why the older we get, the colder we become.
00:13:42
Speaker
What's the, is it the iron? I'm about to bring, I'm about to, I got a whole list. I'm about to inform the people out here. Ladies and gentlemen, when you get older, you get colder. And these are the reason why. Thinner skin. Skin becomes thinner and less elastic, which reduces its ability to retain heat.
00:14:02
Speaker
oh Decrease fat layer. Now, I know some of y'all out there have been like, I don't know what the hell the decreased fat layer is, because my ass is still gaining weight. Well, this sortping out it's the layer of fat underneath the skin that thins out leading to less insulation. You got to get that fat under the skin. yeah You got to get also slower metabolism. The metabolic rate slows down producing less heat. I know about that because I'm constantly trying to increase my metabolism. Yes.
00:14:33
Speaker
so I could burn this fat. Your metabolism and your metabolism. No, my metabolism. Okay. And then there also could be circulation issues. Blood flow can become less efficient, making it harder to keep extremely extremities warm. Yes, because I'll tell you.
00:14:50
Speaker
aye have to have socks on. My hands and feet are constantly cold. So I need a sweatshirt so that I could put my hands in the little kangaroo pouch. And I have to have socks on. but i have I am one of those crazy people that sleeps in socks. I know some of y'all are like, no, first thing I got to do is kick them socks off. And so are you like, spread my toes? No, my feet are cold. My extremities are cold because all of the warmth in my body is going to my midsection to keep my organs warm, so it leaves my extremities freezing, which is which is ah sort of the reason why I understand little tech vests now. Because before, I never understood and why people, you know, where it's like a dad the down vest, like the North Face, you could just wear
00:15:39
Speaker
just the vest. And I was like, why is it? Aren't your arms cold? Like, why not wear a full coat? No, now I get it. If you keep your midsection warm, then more of your body's heat can go to your extremities. So you don't need a full coat. You can keep your arms free. yeah I get it now. because I had the vest. I got the vest. I got them. Well, you wear them.
00:16:03
Speaker
and Well, I do. Wear them around the house. No, not gonna do that. Not gonna wear no puffy ass vest around my house. that I do wear socks all the time, but that's just because I don't like my feet getting dirty.
00:16:19
Speaker
Also that I can't stand feeling crumbs on my feet. learnrk Let me tell you something. Crumbs are dirt. or if It seems like no matter how much I clean these floors, it's always going to be something. Yes. yes Mine is dog hair. yeah Oh, yeah. I sweep every day. My rumba is not working. And it's literally driving me and insane. So I have to sweep every day. and Because i can't I can't, the feeling of any kind of like gravel under my feet,
00:16:49
Speaker
They didn't cut little granules or dirt or whatever under my feet. Boy, then you just start cleaning your feet off on the side of your pants.
00:17:00
Speaker
its
00:17:03
Speaker
I know, I think you the only one that do that. That's gonna dirty up my pants. No, I got to wipe the bottom of my feet off. Yeah, you can do it with your hand. I knew it with my hand. With my hand. Yeah, well, see, that's an old basketball thing, right? Like when you would clean the bottom of your shoe, when you was playing the game, you would wipe it with your hand. Because we was just nasty like that now that I think about it. That's just disgusting. Yeah, it was absolutely disgusting.
00:17:28
Speaker
thanks on the bottle of sneakers. But I do remember you doing that. You'd be wiping the bottom of your sneakers out with your hand. Yeah. No. Because one time I had bought the wrong shoes. and it was I was out there playing like I was skating. And that's not the way you want to play basketball. I was skating out there. No. The coach was like, Bruce, this is good. You got good lateral movement today. You move it side to side so fast. I was like, i'm not this is not on purpose. I'm going to pull a groin muscle out here. but They help me.
00:17:57
Speaker
yeah Also, so I wear socks to bed when I want to like super moisturize my feet. So I'll do the aquapor and lotion and put it all on my feet and then put my socks on because I'm like, my feet kind of dried again, kind of callously. Moisturize. moisturize because they ain't nothing worse than scratchy feet.
00:18:22
Speaker
No, because you tear up some sheets that way. You tear up some sheets, and I've torn up a lot of socks. What suddenly? The heels of the Medicare. Yes, I am. Because the heels of the socks, I'm like, man, why'd I get a whole piece of sock? Just worn. It's just sandpaper rubbing against it down. It really is sandpaper. One time I was doing the little pumice scrum, I was scrubbing and scrubbing and scrubbing.
00:18:48
Speaker
I was like, this is ridiculous. It is so much skin in this bathtub from my foot.
00:18:55
Speaker
but so It is disgusting. Not as disgusting as that time I took my goddaughter to go get the pedicure, and they was doing the scraper on my foot, and it looked like it was snowing. She was like, that is gross. I think it was the first time I ever got a pedicure. Maybe the second time. And I think I've probably been encouraging you to do so quite some time. Yeah, no. Because your feet were very natural. first I hate when you say that. I hate when you say natural. But if we're just very earthy,
00:19:25
Speaker
I was on that little soul kick. You was on that I walk around the forest with no shoes on. I never do that because you ever you step on a pebble in the house, like a little rock in the house when you don't have socks on or something like that. yeah That's one of the worst pains in the world. Well, ah what we i eat well I used to do this ah back when we was country-ass children growing up in the South. I would be out with no socks and shoes on. and Instead, our grandfather told me I'd get worms in my feet, and now it's like my feet are covered.
00:19:56
Speaker
because that yeah and I looked it up in the Encyclopedia Britannica because that's what you had to do back then. It was something like a hookworm or something like that. I said, oh hell. Well, that's the end of that. My childhood. That's the end of being a free country kid. That's the end of that.
00:20:17
Speaker
God, we were so country. So country.

Attending Kamala Harris' Rally

00:20:21
Speaker
All right. That's enough of this daily development because we've been going on long enough. We want to give the people what they want. And what they want to hear is your firsthand experience. Yes. At a VP Harris rally. And we're going to get to that next.
00:20:43
Speaker
All right, sis, you went to a rally yesterday. I did. I did. So I was our correspondent on the ground. No, I didn't talk to nobody. But ah no, I did. I did. But um no, it was amazing. It was my first. It wasn't my first rally. ah My first rally, I was actually when I was in college, University of Maryland, go Turks. And it was ah Ben Cardin was running for Senate. I'm going to age myself.
00:21:12
Speaker
I don't even know who that is. back you It was an old white dude, glasses, and it was him and Barbara Mikulski, and they were our senators in Maryland, and it was a long time ago. It was the early 2000s, okay? And so he was just outside of the Stamp Student Union, and they were talking about the issues and trying to get out the vote so we can get them into the Senate. And they had someone stumping for them.
00:21:37
Speaker
this This young black dude, unknown senator from Illinois with a weird name who I'd never heard of before. and i just I was standing right next to him and I i was like, oh that's cool. and I bypassed him so I could shake Ben Cardin and Barbara Mikulski's hand. The next time I saw this young gentleman, this young senator from Illinois, he was running for president.
00:21:59
Speaker
Yo, know I've never heard this story before. Yes, I actually stood right next to Barack Obama. What? I've known about this card before. Because I forgot about it, honestly, and a completely bypassed him, because I didn't know who this man was. This was before his DNC speech. And completely bypassed him so that I could Check the hands of our future senators. This had to be O2 then. It was O, yes. Yeah. Oh, no, I graduated in O2. This was O4? Yeah, because that's when he gave a must. do OK, all right, yes. Because that's when he gave a speech then. It was like right after. Like it was like right after. And I'm like, hey.
00:22:48
Speaker
and I kind of remember that dude editing. And then when I realized that it was the same guy, I was like, oh, that's cool. Yeah, I just saw him at school. That's the brother in front of the staff student union. He was in front of staff student union. He was cool. He was very engaging. I enjoyed listening to him speak. He was a great orator. And then next time he came back to campus, I think he was at Cole Philhouse and there was no way I was even getting close.
00:23:13
Speaker
Yeah, but so it's not my first rally. Barack Obama and actually Ben Cardin was my first rallies. But this is my first rally. Cardin, not Carson. Cardin.

Political Climate and Election Stakes

00:23:23
Speaker
I said Cardin. Did I say Carson? No, you didn't say Carson. I'm just pointing it out there because Ben was at Johns Hopkins, but we're not talking about Carson. You said it was Cardin.
00:23:34
Speaker
Ben Cardin, yes, okay and Barbara Mikulski, and they did end up being our senators. ah and ah But this is my first rally in a while because, I mean,
00:23:46
Speaker
Well, whose rally would I have gone to? I don't know, I guess not. Joey Beanz? I guess not, yeah. Yeah, Joey Beanz. That's Joe Biden, ladies and gentlemen, by the way. I call him Joe Beanz, because me and him on the first man. I used to call him million-dollar Joe, but now I call him billion-dollar Joe, because it just he's got that megawatt smile, and he just looked like a million bucks. But this was my first rally in a while. I was not prepared.
00:24:13
Speaker
for just how many people were there. Where was it? This was at Lakewood Amphitheater ok um in in West End. sos in It was in south of atlanta southwest of Atlanta. and It's huge amphitheater. I think it's like a live nation runs it and stuff like that. It's huge.
00:24:35
Speaker
and I mean thousands and thousands. I can't even tell. i don't I'm not good at like estimating how many people were there. To me, it looked like a million people, but it was probably closer to maybe like 20, 30,000. I don't know. Honestly, I don't know. It could have been 5,000.
00:24:52
Speaker
I mean, you have no concept of how many, okay, I got it. I have no concept of it at all, but I do know it was thousands and thousands of people. And just the energy,
00:25:06
Speaker
it was absolutely electric. So I got there. people Some people have been there since like 11am, but by the time I got the email letting me know the venue, because they don't let you know the venue ahead of time, I actually found out on Instagram where the venue was. A friend let me know. Why i even got the email? Why? Oh, I guess they wouldn't do that for, you know.
00:25:28
Speaker
for security reasons. yeah security Yeah, they don't want the venue to get out too early for security reasons. um So yeah, you're going through and Secret Service is there and it's very nerve wracking because ah when you're going through the security, I mean, they're checking, they're looking at your phone, checking it, they're going through people's wallets, like making sure you ain't got nothing, even the tiniest little weapon, they gonna find it.
00:25:55
Speaker
ah So I was looking, I was filling my pockets, I was like, what if I accidentally have a gun? Like, I don't know. It's all about why you go and accidentally have a gun. But it's the same dumb logic. Like when I'm at the airport and they got the dogs looking for drugs and I was like, I'm a kingpin, they gonna catch me. I'm like, I ain't touched a drug. What if I got a key on me? What if I got two keys on me right now?
00:26:21
Speaker
What am I going to do?" so You're in this gigantic line, everybody's fired up. everybody Some people are dressed up. I had seen people with blue hair and I thought about them. I was like, well, I had blue hair last election. ah so people i mean and Everybody's fired up. I was standing and behind one lady who made her own, embroidered her own sweater that said Cat Lady on it.
00:26:46
Speaker
You know, because Trump and this child... ah No, J.D. Vance and the childest cat lady Vance. Yeah. So, um everybody's talking to everybody. And it honestly, it looked like a rainbow coalition. Like, it was it was people from all walks of life, all ages, all races, all identities um were there and felt it It felt like a space where you could be yourself. And even ah when she came out, I mean, I'll get to her speech later, but when she came out and she was just like, I want to create a place where you can be free to love who you want to love and build a life for yourself. You know, she talks about her opportunity, the economy and things like that. So it was really.
00:27:37
Speaker
I think a stark departure from what you see at Trump rallies where it looks almost homogeneous right in in terms of who the audience is. Yeah, you get a couple of different people sprinkled in here and there, but how safe do they feel there? How welcome do they feel there? um Whereas this was everybody. It was just everybody from all walks of life and all talking in line and talking to each other and giving their opinions about this political topic or that political topic. So it was really interesting to watch. So you get in.
00:28:17
Speaker
And I said, okay, concession's here. She's probably not going to come on until much later because she was just in Detroit that afternoon. She was in Detroit. Got on.
00:28:29
Speaker
Air Force Two? Is that where she flies? Probably, yes. Yeah. Landed in Hartsfield, Atlanta Airport, and came to our venue. We saw the bus pull in. And I was like, dang, she just came from Detroit giving the speech. And now she's here to give them another speech. So I was like, she's probably not going to go on for a little while. Let me give him this long ass concession stand line. Give him some chicken tenders. Because?
00:28:59
Speaker
We were in that long line and I've been waiting all day to get the venue and all the stuff, so i I was hungry. Every time somebody would get their food, everybody would clap because people have been waiting an hour, sometimes two hours to get some food. I'm in the line, we're inching up slowly, slowly. I've been in this line for an hour to get these chicken tenders, okay? At this point, I've been at the venue for two hours because I was in line outside for an hour. Now I'm in line for an hour with these chicken tenders.
00:29:28
Speaker
And before I even get close, Secret Service shuts it down because she's about to go on. Wow. And I say, chicken tenders.
00:29:42
Speaker
No.
00:29:45
Speaker
And they don't, obviously they don't want a bunch of people rushing in right well the while they're trying to safely get the vice president on stage. So I'm just like, all right, can't get no chicken tenders. Let me go and see if I can find a seat. Well, since I spent so much time out there,
00:30:03
Speaker
but try and get some chicken tenders and just trying to get in. Ain't no seat. So I'm like, OK, that's fine. I figured since I was by myself, I would be able to find at least one seat. Couldn't find a seat. So I'm like, OK, I'll go up on the grass. So I'm out. I'm sitting on the grass. um And when I get in there, John Ossoff, who is also one of our senators, and I don't know if anybody remembers that huge race with him and Reverend Oh. Raphael Warnock. Raphael Warnock. I don't know why Jeremiah Wright's name popped up in my head, but that was not who I was thinking of. I don't even know who that is. Remember that old crazy ah Reverend, but he was like friends with Obama, and everybody was like, Jeremiah Wright. Jeremiah Wright. Exactly. I'm just like that. Were you just saying it like that? I remember it.
00:30:56
Speaker
in case You know, Jeremiah Wright didn't say nothing that black people don't typically say like oh you know ah about this country, but it's just the fact that it got publicized, but whatever. And John Ossoff was on stage, Senator Ossoff, and he was just... It was a the rally was to get out the vote. So Everybody who spoke was pretty much encouraging like hey family members friends get out there vote early I almost said vote often. Sorry get out there vote early. Yeah, not not often not often just early and and so that was pretty much the crux of of what he was talking about and and just Letting people know like hey, this is there are real stakes here. You know, I it made me think about
00:31:45
Speaker
when Obama was running and his first opponent was, it's so funny because he dominated so much of that election that I almost didn't remember. It was John McCain, correct? Yeah, it was John McCain. And I didn't feel like the world would end if John McCain won. Yes, Sarah Palin, it was an idiot, but I didn't feel like the world would end if John McCain won. So it didn't, it just felt like that was just an election for hope and change, not necessarily that there were real stakes of like John McCain could potentially ruin this country. I didn't feel like that. You didn't think that in 2012 either with Mitt Romney, it was like, okay, I disagree with you on some policy stuff, but I genuinely think that you're a decent human being that wants
00:32:36
Speaker
the betterment for people. we just ah to We just disagree on how to get there. Especially because ACA, aka Obamacare, was fashioned after Mitt Romney's ah health care initiatives in Massachusetts. Utah. Utah? Yeah, in Utah, Senator? No, I'm not thinking about Mitt Romney. Sorry. It was another Republican. Out of Massachusetts?
00:33:04
Speaker
oh yeah I can't remember it, but I know somebody will correct me. Oh, they definitely will. Yeah, that definitely. It was actually. Right. and You don't have to say it like that. I'm asking you to correct me. Please. Yeah, so it's it's fine.
00:33:21
Speaker
But you were saying, like, we didn't fill in 08 and 12. Yeah. Like it was the end of the world. And i'm get I'm going to even say in 2016, we still didn't fill it. We didn't know. We didn't know, yes. Like the clown and an entertainer. We didn't know. Which he is, that.
00:33:39
Speaker
He is that. And it also kind of felt like in 2016 that he really wasn't expecting to win. No, he wasn't. you know so But now it feels like, yes, hope and change. But also, it feels like there are real stakes. and the and I mean, there doesn't feel like there there are real stakes in terms of, one, the damage that he's already done and the damage that he could continue to do, especially with this Supreme Court.
00:34:09
Speaker
um And so that was pretty much the message like, hey, yes, I'm glad we're all energized. Hope changed. New way forward. We're not going back. It's great. But there are some serious, serious stakes. And so a majority of her speech, especially since after the passing of Amber Thurman here in Georgia, who died because she couldn't get access to legal abortion care,
00:34:36
Speaker
um the message was all over ah it was all about abortion access. and re right So ah when she came and spoke, she but ah played a clip. I have seen this clip before because I follow her so religiously. but ah oh It was a clip of Amber Thurman's family talking about how her death was preventable, but because of the restrictions to abortion access here in Georgia, um thanks to Trump overturning Roe v. Wade, you know, their daughter and sister and mother, ah mother she has a ah son.
00:35:14
Speaker
um is now gone. um And actually, she is not the only one. um As far as I know, there were two women. Oh, I can't remember her name, and I really hate that because I, it's always been so important for me to say her name, hashtag say her name. But I'll think of it or somebody out there will remind me. um Oh, I forgot Usher came out. Usher did come out. Usher is in town because he's got a customer. Hold on, time out. That's segue. Talking about unfortunate whites. Yeah, I know. Oh yeah, Usher was there. Like, what?
00:35:57
Speaker
It's true. Okay, so after John Ossoff spoke, Usher came. There was a really great DJ there also. ah Shout out to her. And because, um you know, people actually support Kamala Harris's campaign, she has the rights to use... People's songs. ...popular music. Yeah. ah So Usher did come out. He is in Atlanta ah for his, I think it was past, present, future tour.
00:36:25
Speaker
and Now, I thought he could have given us a couple bars of yaya. No, it's a serious situation. I get it. He was there to get out the vote, and I appreciate that. ah But I thought we could have at least done a couple of them little s slides across the floor. No, more hey you want him shucking and driving at an important rally?
00:36:47
Speaker
Listen, because I didn't get to see them in Vegas, OK? as I didn't get tickets to this tour either, OK? Because i I'm on a fixed income. I am a student, OK? So I couldn't see them. So i I have to live through other people's TikToks and IG live so that I can see this concert. So I was at least hoping for a few bars or there goes my baby or something.
00:37:15
Speaker
That's ridiculous. That's utterly ridiculous. like No, we talking about serious stuff. No, he did lead us in a round of we ready, but you know, you have to say ready. It's not ready. It's not ready.
00:37:30
Speaker
Of course, encouraging us to get out the vote, but I'm trying to keep an eye on time. I don't want to go over. I need you to keep an eye on them arms. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. You said 72,000 arms in a sentence. I know, but I'm trying to remember everything that happened. It's like,
00:37:51
Speaker
You're there in the moment. You're trying to be present in the moment. Right. um And also, I was trying to take notes so that I could remember everything that happened. Yeah, you could want to outline right before the show so that you would have been able to to to to go through it. No, I have notes. It's just then I start talking and ah like a little bit like Trump. I go and I weave. I weave. I go off script, but I weave and I bring it back.
00:38:17
Speaker
and So the overwhelming or the overall impression from the rally is... Amazing. Amazing. People down here in Georgia, we are energized and we're ready and people are knocking doors and phone banking and doing everything they can to get out the vote. And shout out also to the judges down here who are striking down a lot of these pro-Trump ah voting restrictions or voting laws that they're trying to pass down here, the hand counting and all of that stuff. So we do have judges that are striking those things down and trying to make it easier for us to vote. And so far, I mean, Georgia is breaking early voting records. We have had over a million people vote early so far. Our first day of early voting, I mean, we crushed 2020 and 2022 records.
00:39:14
Speaker
So by double, so. um But you do know there is a problem in Georgia that's brewing already. What's that? So yesterday I saw clip from Marjorie Taylor Greene saying, i hear saying yeah that there have been voting early voting irregularities with Dominion. And Dominion has come out and said, hey, look, we watching y'all. Yes. Y'all coming out saying some ill stuff. We're going to go on that lawsuit.
00:39:44
Speaker
Yeah, we've already gotten the duckets from last time. Right. So, Marjorie Taylor Green is already saying, well, um she tried to click for Donald Trump and it switched over to to Harris. No, it didn't. And she tried several times to switch over Harris. They are Republicans are gearing up, gearing up to contest everything. you know November 5th,

Importance of Down Ballot Voting

00:40:09
Speaker
even with slow counting, i remember when I don't remember when Joe Biden was finally announced as president. I think it was a week later. I think it's going to be even longer this time. There's going to be so much
00:40:23
Speaker
contesting of votes, yeah lawsuits. This is going to be ugly. Everybody's like, oh, November 5th, everything will be over. Wrong. No. No. Wrong. Things will be over until- Was it over for the last time? no No. Things will not be over until the January 6th, 7th, whenever they certify. And by 15th is, I think, when the president was sworn in sometime around that time. you um And that's if.
00:40:50
Speaker
Kamala is elected. Yeah. If Trump is elected, it's about to be four years of absolute craziness. Yes. here is going to be And I'm going to tell ah conservatives right now, if you think, well, liberals, left-leaning people, Democrats, women,
00:41:13
Speaker
people in the LGBTQ plus community, Jewish people, black people, our Latino people are going to sit back and watch that administration literally try to take us back to the fifties. You got another thing coming. It's going to be major, major fights on your head. And like I said, I don't think it's a bad thing because I think sometimes people need to be woken up. Yeah.
00:41:40
Speaker
I think that the repeal of Roe v. Wade, because I think a lot of people didn't think that it was going to be repealed. No. Overturn, excuse me, overturned. Woke a lot of people up. Woke a lot of people up. The seriousness of what we're dealing with. Everybody always says, I mean, we're America, things won't happen like that. America is not that old.
00:42:02
Speaker
It's not that old. We're not that old of a country. We weren't that old when we had a civil war. and We had a civil war within the first 100 years of us officially becoming a country. Yeah, so it's not like there is not precedent for America struggling with itself. America has ah struggled with itself since its inception, which was not that long ago. so It wasn't.
00:42:30
Speaker
1776, everybody was like, it was so long ago. 1776 in the terms of country is not that long. we're not and not that old We're not an old country compared to you know the rest of the industrialized world. We're not that old. so and it Also, I want to stress the importance of voting down ballot because the way that we could potentially you know put roadblocks, God forbid, on another Trump presidency is by having a Democratic Congress and Senate. Yeah. And a lot of those races are extremely tight. So it's not about just voting for president. You got to vote down ballot as well and make sure that we give our future president, Kamala Harris, a Congress.

Weird Questions and Hygiene Tips

00:43:19
Speaker
You that. It's thinking. It's manifestation. OK.
00:43:25
Speaker
Okay, it's manifestation. it is Why is the race tight? I don't know. Because you're literally talking about some between being coherent and incoherent. That's the case. We know why the race is tight. Race is sexism. Yes, or racism and misogyny, which misogyny is essentially sexism. Yes. yes So yes, those two things. We have that in abundance in this country.
00:43:52
Speaker
We really love it. like that's That's the thing. it's We made it a part of every institution. Did you see ah Trump was on, I don't know if it was Fox and Friends. It was one of those Fox shows. I believe it was Fox and Friends, yes. and i know it We had the black cloth underneath his butt on that white towel, and everybody was like, why is't it why is he sitting on the black cloth on the white couch?
00:44:17
Speaker
Like what what's going on with that? Does he have anal leakage? um Maybe, maybe. ah But one of the commentators said, what are you going to do with the Department of Education when, cause he was talking about, we're going to get rid of the Department of Education, which by the way,
00:44:34
Speaker
is one of the things that's in Project 2025. Exactly. So him just avowing any knowledge of it or any of that. It's it's complete bull malarkey. Yeah. So the guy says, you know, what are we going to do if, if you know, in the schools that they want to teach, you know, slavery and in that we stole indigenous lands and things like that. And that's how this country was built. Right. Trump says, oh,
00:45:01
Speaker
they don't get any money. We're not gonna allow them to teach that. Teach the history. So I always say to people all the time that say, you know, I don't understand why we need to teach slavery um or a why we need to teach like then business lands being, then business people being slaughtered and land being stolen. And I say to them, well, it's kind of important to teach the Holocaust, right? Yeah. um And not only that, you can't bask in which you consider the glory of our founding fathers. And that grapple with the ways in which they were complicit in the trafficking of human beings. You either take all of it
00:45:48
Speaker
or none of it. You can't cherry pick what you want to be proud of and what you don't what what do what you don't want to acknowledge. Because ultimately what you're ah trying to do by not teaching these parts of our history is to teach these kids that they live in a white country that's for them and is theirs. Well, I mean, that's even when you teach those things, you're still teaching them that it is a white country that is for them. But in a way that
00:46:19
Speaker
in a way that they don't feel any kind of uncomfortability about it. yeah Like, we want you to feel like this is your country and it belongs to you, full stop. You don't need to know how it got there. But we want you to we want you to come up and be erased with that entitlement.
00:46:43
Speaker
We want you to be proud of where you come from and don't have any shame in it. That's essentially what it is. there is not Be prideful with no shame. Yeah. Okay. So what is wrong? And somebody somebody asked this and it is a very valid question. What is wrong with little white children aligning with abolitionists?
00:47:06
Speaker
Why do you immediately assume that they'll feel bad because white people were slave owners? White people were also abolitionists.
00:47:16
Speaker
Yeah. because Because you know that you align with the ideology of slave owners. That's why. The Freedom Riders. A lot of white kids in there. The the Mississippi Three that were killed.
00:47:32
Speaker
two white students, one black student. So they're there obviously, there have been white people who were allies for the cause. Celebrate that as well. yeah Tell that story as well. All right, well, you know, hey, look, I'm happy that you went. Yeah, it was really amazing. Every time i I come across something or see her speak, I actually have more her hope from her than I did with Barack. Yeah.
00:48:02
Speaker
It's something about her and it might be, it might just be, oh, I wonder if I'm going to say this right. Ladies and gentlemen, ah excuse me as I say this and butcher this wrong. I want to say it's the woman effect where it seems more motherly in the way that she talks and deals with people.
00:48:26
Speaker
Oh, you're talking about compassion and empathy. Yeah, I mean, not to say Balog didn't have that. But there's something about it coming from a woman who can come to you, embrace you, and be like, it's going to be OK. We're going to be OK. I understand what you're feeling, and I understand what you're going through.
00:48:46
Speaker
and I've been there and we're going to be okay. I get that from her. Yeah. and And did not get that from Hillary. So it's something specifically about her that I get that from. And maybe because she reminds me of family members, that could be it. Yeah, spear black woman. Yeah, that dirt there I guess that's what it is. but but like But I'm glad that you're hopeful.
00:49:10
Speaker
Yes, I am. And one last thing I want to shout out to date is ah Madam Vice President Kamala Harris' 60th birthday. So happy birthday to her. Yes. She a fine 62, by the way. We don't talk about how how fine she is.
00:49:26
Speaker
ah ran Carmelier's is beautiful. We don't talk about that enough. um Because we tried not to do the NSF accomplishments. Even Trump couldn't deny that. Because he is. He could not get over her Time magazine cover. look You talked about it for quite some time.
00:49:43
Speaker
seemed Like, she got a glow about her. When she walk into the room, it's like a little glow around her. like that' Literally, like, the crowd went wild when she walked on stage. Like, it it is. It seems like she's got that Barry Gordy's last dragon glow, the full golden glow. She is the master. Right. Well, don't, du't we were just talking about slavery. Maybe that's not the right word. I'm talking about a black woman. And I said master. I pronounced the T.
00:50:13
Speaker
I didn't say mass. You're right. You're right. Still, there's some people listening. There's some people listening that don't know the difference, but I'm glad that you broke it down for that. Yeah. No, there's a T in that. All right. Enough of this. Yeah. Let's get into some weird questions and thoughts next.
00:50:35
Speaker
are All right, Jay, you just made a little comment off air. And I was like, did you read these questions? And you said? Yes. And they obviously came from you. i But what does that even mean? Because if it's ah anything about some sort of hygiene or cleanliness, I know that it's coming from you.
00:51:03
Speaker
Oh, okay. Well, I think these are, I'm teaching some people some things. Okay. This all stemmed from one of my friends came to visit me and we had a conversation about bathrooms. Yeah. And the reason why is because I was saying to her when she goes into my bathroom, because I got a bidet and you have a bidet as well. And you have to let people know, Hey, the bidet handles on the bottom. Yeah. The flushers on the top.
00:51:29
Speaker
Don't confuse the two because... You'll squirt water on yourself. You're gonna squirt water on yourself. And she was like, yeah, i'm i I know how to to work it. And I was like, yeah, we know, well, something to be surprised. You'd be surprised of how many people reach for that lower handle that looks nothing like the plunger handle, which is usually up at the top or on the side, you know, it's up, but it's at the top.
00:51:56
Speaker
How many people have come out of my bathroom with the front of their pants wet? It just don't make no sense. It don't make no sense. So I'm going to jump to the last one. That's the reason I should have labeled these a little bit differently. But she came out of there and she was like, have you heard about ah flushing the toilet? And I was like, yeah, I have heard about that. yes It's a a serious thing. Who are you talking to? Yeah, I was like, it's a serious And my question is, do people out there know about flushing the toilet?
00:52:24
Speaker
Now, yes, you flush the toilet after you use it, but what happens yeah when you flush the toilet? There's an aerosol plume. Plume, yes. Plume. Flushing can create a plume of tiny aerosol particles that contain water, urine, feces, and even pathogens.
00:52:49
Speaker
and Airborne particles, hold on, hold on. These particles can be propelled into the air at speeds of up to 6.6 feet per second. Yes. So what does that mean? A lot of times people... It's a dookie spray. It's a dookie, it's a dookie, creepy spray that's being sprayed every time you flush the toilet. So a lot of... One lid has a lid for a reason, guys. yeah so And a lot of people are not realizing that you are flushing the toilet and things is flying up. You think things would be a sucked down and they are, but things are also being pushed up at the rate of 6.6 feet per seconds. Now I'm six foot four. That means as soon as I flush, that hits me within the first seconds. in the face. And all those people that are shorter than me, it's getting you to half a second, it's got to you. Yeah, it's already it's already there. You got to put the lid down. I learned about this because they talked about, and I i was a child, and they talked about how the spray gets on people's toothbrush. And I said, oh,
00:53:53
Speaker
Hell no. And ah since since I was a little girl, that lid goes down and then I flush. It's got to. Or when I'm in a public restroom and there's no lid, you got to lean back and put your foot and get the hell up out of there. But it's too late. You got to spray. You got to wash your hands. Got to wash your hands. Well, here's the thing.
00:54:19
Speaker
It's not just a spray. There are airborne particles. Research has shown that these particles can linger in the air for up to 20 seconds and travel several feet away from the toilet. yeah this is potentially This can potentially spread germs and infectious agents. So every time that we go into a public bathroom, we walk in. It's disgusting in there. It's disgusting. I don't like using public bathrooms. Sometimes you can't help it. You're not always at home. You're not always at home. So sometimes you gotta use a public bathroom.
00:54:49
Speaker
It's disgusting in there. It's disgusting. So like you said, what are some things that you can do? Lid down. Studies suggest that closing the lid before flushing can reduce the spread of particles by 50%. Guess what though? That's only 50%. 50% is still getting up out of there. My bestie told me that she was at work. She went to the bathroom. Somebody was in the bathroom and their lunch was on the sink. No.
00:55:17
Speaker
will not take anything. Beverage, food, if it if I'm supposed to ingest it, don't go in the bathroom. I leave my water bottle, there's usually a water fountain right outside of a public restroom. I put my water, I would rather leave it out for somebody to potentially come by and just wipe her booker on it. Not the time I take a wipe of water, I don't feel wipe. This is Eddie Murphy water.
00:55:48
Speaker
oh Leave it out. and Then take it into the bathroom. Because you gotta to be kidding me. Every surface in there is disgusting. I don't care how nice that bathroom looks. And people just be... There are podcasts where hosts are talking and about how they use the bathroom and don't wash their hands. Unprovoked. We're not asking you this. I'm glad you're telling us we already knew.
00:56:14
Speaker
I still contend, that's the reason why coronavirus spread, because of nasty people. They had to give tutorials of how to wash your hands properly. I'm like, wait a minute, didn't everybody know? But we worked in the restaurant business, so we knew, we we were kind of taught. Yeah, not not to mention, you know, our mother's a nurse.
00:56:35
Speaker
that too. So we had to wash our hands. So yeah there is a there's a there's a privilege yeah and being connected with these things and learning. Okay. But there is a lot of grown adults that didn't realize that running your hands underneath the water without any soap wasn't going to get it done. There are full adults who think swimming is tantamount to taking a bath. Oh yeah.
00:56:59
Speaker
What is chlorine in the water? And now there's chlorine all over you. And also everybody else. Let me tell you something. Booger in the water. What is witcher of boogers today?
00:57:13
Speaker
What is witcher of boogers? You had not cleaned the chlorine. But it's still floating in there.
00:57:25
Speaker
You remember, you remember when we were kids, we'd go to YMCA. Yes. And we'd go swimming in the pool. Yes. There's a reason why when you get out of the pool, they have showers for you to rinse off and clean yourself. Because that is not cleaning yourself going and swimming. No. Not at all. You need to stress the imagination. Washing your hair and letting the the shampoo run down your body is also not cleaning yourself. Don't get me started on people not washing their backs properly.
00:57:56
Speaker
Get you one of them African scrub dicks and wash your damn back. I shouldn't be able to drag my fingernail across your back and have a bunch of dirt up under my feet. First of all, I shouldn't be able to drag my fingernail across any crevice of your body and get dirt up underneath my nails. That's
00:58:20
Speaker
Oh, by the way, ladies and gentlemen, when you wash your hands, you put the soap all in your hands, in the little pocket of your hand, you know, you got your, outside your fingers, your actual hand, the palm of your hand. Yes, the palm of your hand. You take the soap and you get up under your fingernails by scratching the palm of your hand. That's how you get the soap up underneath there. You do it on both sides and then rinse them off. That's how you clean up under your nails. Yeah. Because. Packages can spread. but No, because what? Because I done seen,
00:58:50
Speaker
some nasty nails on some of y'all, and it lets me know when you first, okay, because I worked with a lady, and she always had a line of black under under her nail, okay? And so that, to me, tells me you didn't bathe this morning, because even taking a shower, your nails get clean. They do. Just a bit. If you shower properly. There you go, right there. that That's the point I'm trying to make.
00:59:20
Speaker
Um, when you made breakfast, you may wash your hands. Mm. Like that just lets me know what your morning looked like, that you could come to work at first thing in the morning, you got dirt under your fingernails.
00:59:33
Speaker
Did they breath it do they brush their teeth? Because that's literally the first thing I do. I get out of bed, I limp to the bathroom. At first I take a drink ah of my bedside water. yeah Because you can't brush your teeth immediately without putting something in your mouth because you got the dry mouth or maybe it's just me because I can't. No, I have to get something to drink first thing. That's the first thing I have to do. It's so refreshing.
00:59:57
Speaker
So I got my bedtime water that's right by the right side of my bed. Take a swig of that. I limp to the bathroom and immediately brush my teeth and mouthwash. you know And a floss I night with the water pick at night. And sometimes during the day, if I know some stuff got caught in my teeth. If I had some popcorn? Well, popcorn is automatic. Sometimes I eat popcorn specifically because I don't make sure that I floss them before I can debate it.
01:00:28
Speaker
Cause I can't, I can't, I'll be like ah goon ah comfortable. Let a kernel, let a kernel be in my tooth. I can't even, win your gun I can't even be comfortable. All right. So pathogens spread. The particles expelled during the flushing can contain various pathogens, including bacteria and viruses, which can pose health risk if inhaled or come into contact with surfaces. And of course it's going to come into contact with surfaces. You know why? Cause in most bathrooms, you've got a sink.
01:00:58
Speaker
and a tub or shower that's right next to it. Yeah. Oh yeah, by the way, ladies and gentlemen, don't keep that toothbrush on the same counter. No. twitter Put it in a cabinet, put it in a drawer, put put it somewhere, ah or put it in the case. Because things get on that toothbrush and you're just rubbing it all in your mouth. You're nasty.
01:01:20
Speaker
there there are There have been cases where if you use lasers and cameras, scientists have been able to visualize visualize the particles, revealing the extent of the spread and the energy for which they eject. Basically, flushing your toilet without that toilet seat down,
01:01:40
Speaker
You spread it. And I don't know who told me about this the other day. Or maybe it was a Larry David Kirby enthusiasm. And some men out here are going to question my masculinity, do it to my face. I dare you. Yeah. I like peeing, sitting down now. That's not unusual. i well A lot of guys have told me that. So the splashback, I didn't realize how much the splashback is. Yeah.
01:02:06
Speaker
and it's astronomical, right? It's not astronomical. But there's pee on you. There's pee on you no matter what you do. Yes. Right? And I was just like, it's easier for me, especially ah in the middle of the night when I got to go pee, to just go ahead and sit down and pee. Yeah.
01:02:24
Speaker
It's just easier. It's just easier. and And I was like, it's hard to train myself because for 44 years, I've been standing up and peeing. So sometimes I do forget. But in the middle of the night, I don't forget. I'm like, I'm about to sit down. I'm tired. I'm tired anyway. I want to sit down. yeah is I'm tired anyway. Yes, it's the will. And I got a little light in there, but I don't, you know, my aim ain't good with the lights, with the real lights on. Right. Especially ain't good with the night light on. Right. So that's another thing, ladies and gentlemen, for my men out there, pens sitting down, you don't got to clean off the toilet rim so much. right If you actually do it, I do it, because you know I can't stand no stains around my toilet. so Ladies and gentlemen, y'all felt that right now, what I just said. It's real, like no stains in my house. Through his teeth, he said this. I don't like no stains in my house. But shout out to the inventor of the water closet,
01:03:19
Speaker
You're a real one. Putting that toilet in a so little room in the bathroom. You're a real one for that. You're a real one. Well, not a lot of people had that. Our parents had that in their master bedroom and they're in their house. A lot of new houses, they'll have that. But whoever said, why don't we put the toilet in some little room?
01:03:38
Speaker
You're a real one for that. Yeah, because if you think about it, if you got a tub with like a jacuzzi or something like that, you do want to have some champagne, some strawberries, make yourself a lovely evening. It might seem even and for yourself. Right. And you can't do that in the regular bathroom with the toilet right then. No, you're looking at it. It's in your field of vision, and then you think about the plume. No. That plume, ladies and gentlemen, plume.
01:04:06
Speaker
the aerosol plume. But I also had two other weird questions. Okay. First one, how often are you washing your rags and towels in the kitchen that you use in the kitchen? And how often are people changing their bedsheets? This is more specifically every Sunday for men with their bedsheets, but for everybody for their towel rags and for their rags and their towels in the kitchen. And some people are not even gonna understand what the hell I'm talking about when I talk about rags and towels in the kitchen. ah So my rags are disposable.
01:04:48
Speaker
o I get those the the blue ones, the blue and white stripe joints you get from thedverse the grocery store. Or I use paper towel as far as like cleaning, wiping up. But then like my hand towels and stuff that I have in the kitchen, I have to wash frequently because I have a puppy who likes to take them
01:05:12
Speaker
And now they got puppy mouth all on them I got to them pretty regularly. So, and then my sheets, first of all, I seen too many y'all with y'all outside clothes on you bid. We've had that conversation before. stop ah can I can't do it with the, I just can't do it. But no, the sheets, you got to change those once a week.
01:05:37
Speaker
Yeah, but a lot of men, well, hold on, because I'm one of those men. I change them know once. um I might let it go two weeks, but the only reason that I would do that is typically it's like,
01:05:52
Speaker
My place tends to be very cold. And because it's cold, I'm not sweating. And I shower before I get into bed. So it tends to be you know yeah clay sheets. yeah But I also only have one set of sheets. Oh, all right. But at least they match, though. Because for the longest time in my 20s, I had bed sheets that did not match. itd be pink fitted sheet with a blue bed sheet with a teal comforter and pillowcases that didn't match. There's a whole ambiance that's in my bedroom, but I got one pair of bedsheets. So matter of fact, today, because I'm doing laundry, cleaning, I'm doing bedsheets. um So I do that, but I know a lot of men
01:06:41
Speaker
out here looking, out here being real triflax. It's like they don't think about that. Like, you got to wash them sheets, man. It's funky. Wash them sheets. You really do. i I, because I sweat in my sleep. Because I sleep with a down comforter a year round. I mean, I do too, but the air conditioning is almost always on.
01:06:59
Speaker
I don't get because of my HVAC system, I don't get air conditioning in my room. And so I have like an external thing in the window or whatever. Sometimes I don't turn that on because it's expensive. You're right. I mean, hey, things cost. Sometimes it's the choice between spending money or sweating. And sometimes you just got sweat. You just got sweat. Just take the shower in the morning and that's the best you could do. But yeah.
01:07:26
Speaker
So ladies and gentlemen, the reason why I bring up these weird questions and thoughts is because I'm hearing a lot of people ain't really taking care of themselves. I tell them they shouldn't be. And I just want to enlighten you, because I'm going to tell you right now, you come around me and you tell me these things. The older I'm getting, I have less control over my facial expressions. And I'm going to tell you to your face through my facial expression that you nasty as hell. Yeah.
01:07:54
Speaker
and I don't want nothing to do with you. And for women out there, let me tell you something. I'm i'm using the bathroom at your house for women that I'm dating. And if I see the back of that toilet is dirty, the back of the toilet, the back of the toilet. If I see anything dirty just from the visible part of the toilet, I'm done. Yeah. A young woman one time was over my house, used the bathroom. I saw a little stain afterwards. Did I guess she ain't thick to flush several times?
01:08:24
Speaker
That was the last time she was suffering from my house. She was a lovely young woman. But I'm like, you didn't even check? You didn't even look behind you? You close the lid. Yeah. You flush it. Yeah. Let it wait for a little bit. Open the lid to see if, you know, you got to flush it again. I don't want to. I know it's time consuming. But I'm not that important that you need to see me. I just thought that I'm not that important that you need to see me every second. Like, make sure. Because I'm sorry. Look, let me tell you something. This is who I am. I'm very particular.
01:08:56
Speaker
So women out there yall might want to be nasty if you want to. Don't be nasty around me, because I'm going to let you know. And I'm going to judge you, too. I try not to judge people, but I'm going to judge you. You judge. That's your favorite thing to do. um Well, I try not to. No, you don't. Not very hard. No, that that's not true. I try not to judge people. It's all your face.
01:09:17
Speaker
all the time, and I'm trying to, yeah, I can't control it no more. I'm gonna tell you, I'm gonna let you know. If you say something stupid, if you musty, you said, you know, if you do something stupid, like, and I'm gonna let you know. Yeah, in one way or another. So again, you don't try very hard. and Well, whatever. I'm 44 years old. This is the life I decided to live. Jay, what do you want to tell the people out there? Happy birthday, Madam Vice President, and get on the boat.
01:09:45
Speaker
So important to get out and vote. We gonna see. We are going to see, I don't know, ladies and gentlemen. like I have hope, but not a whole
