Hello and welcome to Misunderstood, the show for the politically and culturally misunderstood
00:00:14.660
lady and gent. We are your hosts. I'm Nat. And I'm Kat. And today we're going to be covering an
00:00:21.040
array of topics, but first we're going to start with our patented culture shock moment. Take it
00:00:25.660
away. So this week, this old boomer named Dean Blundell, who used to be, or is he still,
00:00:33.040
no one even knows and no one cares. He used to be on the edge. He had a radio program there.
00:00:38.380
Now he's just kind of like this old grumpy old man who is trying to get people murdered. So
00:00:43.800
he tweeted out that he had a list of all the people that donated to give, send, go for the
00:00:51.160
trackers convoy. Now this list was already public. So he was like, someone leaked it and I have the
00:00:56.840
intel. It's like, no, it was public record. And we're not going to show you the names on it because
00:01:00.920
I mean, it's, it's public record, but we're not trying to get anyone in trouble. But the thing
00:01:06.460
that was the shocking point of all this at the end of his little blog article, which is so cute
00:01:11.680
because he has a blog. It's very cute. He writes at the very, very end, he wrote that you're going to
00:01:18.520
see, let's, let's scroll down. It's, I think it's right at the bottom. Okay. Go up a little bit.
00:01:23.420
Yes. So the pro tip that he wrote, Trudeau is calling a state of emergency to give people their
00:01:28.620
city back. I guess I shouldn't have said that. We'll bleep it tomorrow. And I think you might
00:01:33.400
see some guy's heads get freedom from their shoulders. Okay. Dean. You okay, bud? You okay,
00:01:43.860
Dean? You okay? I mean, are you just so sad that no one knows who the hell you are? Is that why
00:01:48.900
you're going to great lengths to be such a jerk? He's like, not only, I don't know if, I don't know
00:01:53.180
if it's technically doxing because it's public record, but he's trying, like he's attempting to
00:01:56.940
dox. Yeah. Like he thinks he's doxing. He thinks he's doxing and he's doing a bad job at it. But he's
00:02:00.720
also saying, Hey, guess what guys? Tune in because pro tip, you're going to get to see some
00:02:04.920
decapitations. Like, I don't think he's being proverbial there. I think he actually thinks the police,
00:02:10.020
the state of emergency, the police are going to go in and start cutting people's heads off.
00:02:14.040
Like Mary Antoinette, that time, that time in history is gone. We can't do that anymore.
00:02:19.060
We don't cut off people's heads that we don't agree with anymore, Dean.
00:02:22.540
No, and my favorite part is that he mentioned that this isn't the first time Give, Send,
00:02:26.960
Go has funded an insurrection. Sorry, what? Yeah. What was the other time that it wasn't an
00:02:32.160
insurrection? Also, this is not an insurrection. Like the truckers convoy. It's literally just people
00:02:36.960
making pancakes and dancing. Yeah, it's like little kids being like, Yay, Canada. I love
00:02:41.220
truckers. I want to be one. Yeah, that's not an insurrection, my friend. No. He is the worst.
00:02:46.740
And let's move on and never speak of him again. Good call. Perfect. Let's do it.
00:02:50.080
Oh, Nat, what day is it today? It's B-Day. Oh my gosh, what did you get me? Oh my gosh,
00:02:55.800
I got you pride. My own pride. I got you nothing. You know what? Nat gave me a bottle of wine
00:03:05.120
for after our first episode and I got her nothing. It's true. So what did you get me?
00:03:11.840
Nothing. But it's Valentine's Day and it's so exciting for some people. Like teenagers. Yeah,
00:03:19.460
teenagers. Newlyweds. I think they enjoy it. Do you still enjoy Valentine's Day? To be honest,
00:03:24.020
I'm going to the dentist later. So like I really don't. That sounds extremely, so you're going to
00:03:29.020
get some action. I'm going to get like, there's something going on in there later. So it's just,
00:03:33.780
that's lovely. The first article we want to talk about is, is America giving up on marriage?
00:03:42.220
And I would say not just America, is the Western world giving up on marriage? This is an American
00:03:48.060
magazine. Yeah, it's Evie, which we love. It's an American magazine and it seems like they're
00:03:53.620
talking about people giving up on marriage. And I think that's a fair assessment. Like we've talked
00:03:57.500
about this in the past, that the narrative is constantly like women shouldn't burden themselves
00:04:04.380
with family life and they should focus on their careers and, and having multiple sexual partners.
00:04:10.440
It's very, very feminine. Yeah. And I guess there's a study that was conducted that showed
00:04:15.660
like only 49% of households in America are made up of married couples. And in the fifties,
00:04:20.880
that was 80%. So it's, it's diminished like exponentially. The eighties, good times.
00:04:25.540
And I wonder what, I wonder what the cause is, but I do think going back to what you just said is
00:04:29.620
that this secular society just wants people to be selfish and indulgent. And I think marriage is
00:04:35.540
such a huge commitment and I don't think people are willing to give up their freedom, so to speak,
00:04:40.500
to be a part of that beautiful union. Yeah. I think you nailed it. I think marriage is about
00:04:45.520
a potential sacrifice. Like it's a commitment, which takes sacrifice. And also you're sacrificing
00:04:50.580
yourself because you're becoming not an individual, you're becoming a unit. Yeah. And I think that
00:04:55.380
to what you said, it's like people aren't interested in sacrifice. They're interested
00:04:58.820
in expediency and comfort and pleasure and marriage doesn't like when you figure out,
00:05:04.660
oh, it's more than a wedding day. It's more than like, oh, picking your flowers and who's your
00:05:08.740
bridesmaids. Like it's actually a long-term lifelong commitment. Hence why I have not made that yet.
00:05:13.060
But there are drawbacks to marriage, which people aren't prepared for. No, absolutely. But there's
00:05:19.700
positives. There are many positives. Which is what the article highlights. I mean, first of all,
00:05:25.140
from a societal standpoint, marriage, like it, like the structure that comes from a family,
00:05:30.580
like feeds into the world and it feeds into society. And when you have strong family units,
00:05:34.980
you have a strong society. First of all, there are other benefits as well. Ideally, yeah.
00:05:39.220
Well, some of the other benefits that we've seen are, it makes you less poor.
00:05:43.860
Oh my gosh. Yeah. Well, I mean, I was just recently talking with my friend and she was
00:05:48.020
talking about how as a single person, her single income will never allow her to afford a home on
00:05:52.980
her own. You know, but when you're married, you have hopefully the option to be able to purchase a
00:05:57.620
home and that's a great investment. You can share your Netflix account. Yeah. That's really nice.
00:06:02.420
Bank account. Like if you're like, oh, I didn't, I'm not making that much money, but my husband's
00:06:06.580
good. I'm going to go shopping. No, I'm just kidding. I think there are probably like tax
00:06:11.300
reasons too. Yeah. I don't know them off the top of my head, but I, I think they, um, yeah. I mean,
00:06:16.420
I think so. What are some of the other benefits now? Um, I think like, you know, knowing, uh,
00:06:22.260
that you can come home to someone every day. I think just like being supported unconditionally,
00:06:26.980
it's kind of nice, you know, because you know, we have friends, we have work, but when, when those
00:06:30.820
things get tough or when people become disloyal or, you know, like feelings are so fleeting in those
00:06:35.380
relationships, I think it's nice to come home and have that solid place to land. Yeah. You know,
00:06:40.260
um, and apparently it makes men less likely to abuse you physically. Oh really? Oh my goodness.
00:06:47.300
Why is that? Well, I don't know, but I, I do also want to note that it also makes you less likely to
00:06:54.340
cheat on your partner. Why? I don't know. I think it's because when you're bound to someone,
00:06:59.860
you kind of want to make it work. And I think if you're being abusive or unfaithful,
00:07:03.540
it's kind of like, well, I don't want to go home to my mad wife. Like, yeah, or I don't want to,
00:07:08.340
I don't want to live in a household where I'm treating this person like this and it's not nice
00:07:12.340
for her or anyone. But would that same guy like abuse his girlfriend? But once she becomes the
00:07:16.980
wife, it's like, I know I, I, we should kind of dive deeper into the psychology of that one day.
00:07:21.540
I'm thinking also, maybe it's because like the whole point of a wedding ceremony is to declare your
00:07:27.620
love in front of God and in front of your family and friends. And maybe that actually has a
00:07:32.020
psychological impact on how people, like you said, like, you're not going to go home and treat
00:07:35.220
your wife that way. But maybe it's because you told everyone, I'm not going to do, I'm not going to
00:07:38.740
abuse her. And then they're like, eh, you abused her. And I'd argue too, like, it's almost spiritual
00:07:43.220
because the Bible in Genesis is really clear about how when you, man shall leave his father and become
00:07:47.380
one with his wife. So if you are one and you share a, like a body spiritually, so to speak,
00:07:51.940
you're not going to want to harm your own body. You know what I mean? That makes sense.
00:07:54.980
I don't know. I don't know. I'm not, I'm not a theologian. I'm not a psychologist, but maybe.
00:08:03.940
We're just going to take a quick break here to tell you about our sponsor. So Bitcoin 2022 is the
00:08:09.220
largest Bitcoin event in the world. And that takes place April 6th to 9th in Miami Beach, Florida.
00:08:14.340
All four days will be jam packed with exclusive content, exciting announcements,
00:08:18.660
and an incredible lineup of Bitcoin speakers, artists, and leaders.
00:08:22.740
Day one is industry day for enterprising Bitcoiners who are looking to build a business
00:08:27.700
or a career within the ecosystem. Days two and three are general conference days featuring speakers
00:08:33.300
like El Salvador president Nayib Bukele, who has promised a big surprise, as well as CEOs like Michael
00:08:40.820
Saylor, Elizabeth Stark, Jack Maulers, Adam Back, and hundreds more. The conference caps off on the
00:08:47.780
fourth day with the world's first and largest Bitcoin music festival, Sound Money Fest. Last
00:08:55.220

00:09:12.340
This next article that we want to discuss is 30 things that get better, sorry, 30 things better
00:09:18.180
than being in a relationship. Yeah. And let's be honest, they're not really better. Just out,
00:09:23.860
just out the gate. Let's just, let's just, let's just give it away. The disclaimer here is pretty much
00:09:27.940
everything on this list you can do as a coupled person as well. Yeah. So if we could pull those
00:09:33.460
up, we're going to, okay, well, first of all, let's talk about this image here that we have. Um,
00:09:37.220
they don't, they, they might be single, but they don't look good or happy. That dress thing is hideous.
00:09:43.780
The worst thing about this is they're closed. Does being single mean you dress bad? Yeah. Like it
00:09:47.700
means you have to wear a jumper from the 1980s and eat pizza like a monster. Why are you eating it
00:09:52.260
crust first? Yeah. That's the point is, is you can still do that if you're married. You can,
00:09:56.660
I'm pretty sure you can do whatever you want when you're married. Oh yeah. I could eat my pizza
00:10:01.060
like that. And he'd be like, damn. Really? Wow. What a loving man he must be. Um, you can do so
00:10:08.340
many things. Let's, let's keep scrolling. I think there's like a slide show. Is that it? No,
00:10:13.620
I think there's a slide show. There we go. All right. So number one, you can wink. No,
00:10:18.420
I'm just kidding. Flirting. Well, you can flirt with your spouse or partner or dogs. I flirt with dogs.
00:10:25.060
You can like anything is considered flirting these days. Anyway, you say hi to someone on the street
00:10:29.460
and they're like, she was flirting. Yeah. She likes me. It's like, no, no, I'm just a friendly person.
00:10:34.340
Not wearing a mask. Yeah. Okay. Well, so shameless flirting. Debunked. Yeah. Debunked. Okay.
00:10:40.580
One of them was listen to Taylor Swift. I literally make my husband do that all the time. I'm like,
00:10:45.300
you're in the car. You're locked in here too bad. Yes. Okay. So here's number two pizza.
00:10:49.540
I eat pizza with my husband. Have you ever eaten pizza with a cup, like with your boyfriend or
00:10:55.060
partner? Okay. So maybe this one is accurate. I'm so hungry all the time.
00:11:03.620
Yeah. There, you know, we're going to move on from this because the website is janky.
00:11:08.500
You know what is good news though? Really good news. If you drink coffee three cups a day,
00:11:15.140
you might actually live longer. Oh my God. So add this to the list, including red wine
00:11:21.460
and now coffee. Yeah. Basically I should never have gotten COVID. I'm very confused why I got COVID.
00:11:28.340
Yeah. So I guess you're 12% less likely to die early. You know, I'll take those odds.
00:11:33.060
I will take those odds. Oh, I thought this was about COVID. No, it's just your general life.
00:11:39.460
Death. Who cares? It's all about COVID. How does this impact my COVID though?
00:11:43.300
You know what? I have a feeling that it helps. It must help because if you're,
00:11:47.620
if COVID is this deadly life-threatening disease, you're less likely to die when you have COVID.
00:11:52.980
Yeah. I'm thinking it includes all morbidities. Yeah. This is amazing because I absolutely drink
00:11:58.340
at least three cups of coffee a day. I will say though, be careful because they don't recommend
00:12:01.700
drinking more than three. I'm not really sure why. Oh, that's too bad. So maybe that's why you got
00:12:06.260
COVID. Yeah. It's like that fourth cup really throws me off. I don't think I have more than three.
00:12:10.980
Three is a lot. Three is a lot. Like I am basically vibrating. Yeah. So anyway,
00:12:15.940
so good news guys, drink up, go to Starbucks, whatever. Oh, but wait, there is a catch. There
00:12:19.700
is a catch. It can't be instant. Can't be instant. You know, but nothing instant in life
00:12:23.780
is really usually worth it. And you know, instant coffee is not even instant. You still have to boil
00:12:28.420
the water. There you go. Instant. Yeah. Define instant. Wrong. That's misinformation. I think so too.
00:12:34.340
It's been debunked. It's been debunked according to us. Okay. Well, here's a fun one.
00:12:40.020
There is a new vaccine available. Oh, that's not quite available yet. Right. It's in the,
00:12:44.100
it's in the test. They're testing it. There's, they're testing it and it's not for what you think,
00:12:47.620
guys. What is it for, Nat? It's for morbidly obese people. It's, it's okay. So it's a,
00:12:54.500
apparently it's a miracle. Uh, and a million morbidly obese adults may be able to get it once a week,
00:13:00.980
guys. Like, you know what you could do once a week? You could go to the gym. You could go
00:13:04.740
buy vegetables at your local market. That takes a lot more effort though. Okay. That's true.
00:13:09.700
I'm just wondering when they're going to make everyone else take this vaccine to help obese
00:13:14.820
people lose more weight because that's a good point. They can't lose weight if, unless I also
00:13:18.500
get the vaccine. You're onto something. Yeah. Science. But can we just spend like five seconds
00:13:22.740
talking about the fact that vaccines are not supposed, they're like blanket solutions,
00:13:28.100
bandaid solutions for these problems. Like we need to focus more on like getting to the root
00:13:32.900
of the health issue. It's the same with COVID. We saw no one talk about vitamin D, vitamin C.
00:13:37.860
It was just get the vaccine for your health. Yeah. And this is the same thing for everyone.
00:13:41.380
Exactly. Regardless of if you have cancer, if you're pregnant, if you have autoimmune disorders,
00:13:46.180
it doesn't matter. Get the vaccine, you bigot. And health is such, is not one size fits all.
00:13:50.020
No. Like it's just not. Everyone's body is different. Some people die from a peanut.
00:13:52.420
Exactly. You know, weaklings. Just kidding. And you know, like we're not against science. We're not
00:13:58.740
against like these developments in science, but you know, like maybe we should encourage
00:14:03.380
morbidly obese people to take better care of their health. Yeah. It's not like polio where it's like
00:14:09.300
this disease that affects your life and there's like nothing you could have done to prevent it and
00:14:13.700
it's tragic and it'll affect you for the rest of your life and there's nothing you can do about it.
00:14:16.580
It's like, that's a good, that's a good candidate for a vaccine. But like obesity, like that's something
00:14:22.980
you done do to yourself. You did it to yourself. You done did it to yourself. And you know what?
00:14:28.820
Just focus on your health, guys. Yeah. Get to the root of the issue. Or you could just have
00:14:32.580
heroin every week and that would probably keep you pretty thin too. It's probably like, I mean,
00:14:36.340
big pharma is probably making as much off of all these vaccines as a, as a heroin dealer would.
00:14:41.380
It might be heroin. It might. Well, you know what? You heard it here first, folks. It might be.
00:14:45.860
It just might be. Alleged. Allegedly. But definitely.
00:14:52.020
Misinformation. All right. Debunked. Beautiful. What is our next topic to talk about? Well,
00:14:57.940
this is sort of about COVID, but it's mostly about rewriting history. This is some 1984 vibes for you.
00:15:04.260
Okay. We all know it's going to happen. We all know it's going to happen. The progressives are going to
00:15:08.660
take, take the COVID-19 narrative. They're going to change it so that they were never the bad guys,
00:15:13.620
despite the fact that we know they've been the ones pushing the policies the whole time.
00:15:17.140
So this article is from Mises Institute, which is a super fun place to learn about economics.
00:15:23.060
If you're like me and know absolutely nothing about economics, it also has culture, politics,
00:15:27.300
pretty cool stuff. Here's a quote from the article that I found interesting.
00:15:32.020
First, corporate media outlets and the communications departments of public health agencies may
00:15:36.020
increasingly distance themselves from their own bad policies. This has already begun. They may
00:15:40.820
attempt to cover their retreat by saying the science has changed, or that the latest viral
00:15:45.300
variant warrants a lighter government response. We're already seeing this. We're already seeing this.
00:15:50.420
So last week, Jen Psaki blamed Trump for the COVID lockdowns, which is, you know, not inaccurate.
00:15:56.740
They did come into place when he was the president, but it's been a year. It's been a year now since
00:16:02.580
Biden's been president. It's not like he dropped all federal mandates and rang in a new era of freedom.
00:16:09.060
So it's funny that she's like already walking it back, blaming Trump. That's, you know, who,
00:16:13.620
what's not his fault is my question. Absolutely. And I think it's also interesting,
00:16:18.980
like when we look at Canada too, we have had liberal MPs now kind of backpedal and be like,
00:16:23.300
oh no, we want to, we don't want to associate with Trudeau's rhetoric around the truckers and
00:16:27.380
stuff because they don't want to go down with the ship, you know? And like, oh, like Jason
00:16:31.620
Kenny and we need to take the masks off of children. It's like, yeah, I'm glad it's happening.
00:16:37.540
And I'm not going to spit in the face of that, but also like some people have been saying that the
00:16:41.380
whole time and y'all have been silent on it. And now all of a sudden it's like, oh,
00:16:44.980
we need to think about the children. Like we've, we've been saying that the whole time,
00:16:48.820
literally since probably almost day one. Yeah. And I think we will probably see the
00:16:52.980
progressives be successful in rewriting history because they own all the institutions that influence
00:16:58.020
culture, such as universities, the mainstream media, right? Like they're all going to have that
00:17:02.260
support from, they'll be like, no, uh, COVID lockdowns were not a good idea. Fact checkers say,
00:17:08.260
like blames Trump. Like, oh, it's going to be fun. You know, when your lefty prof is writing the
00:17:13.700
textbook, he's going to write it to say exactly that. The textbook that he insists you buy for
00:17:18.660
his course. Yeah. For $5 million. Yeah. It's such a scam. We should have been professors. I know.
00:17:23.700
And like the, just, this is so off topic, but like in high school and university, like plagiarism,
00:17:30.580
plagiarism, all people could talk about was like, don't plagiarize. Once you're in the real world,
00:17:34.420
you can't plagiarize. Like all people do is plagiarize. Yeah. It's all the memes and quotes
00:17:38.820
and articles. I plagiarized this episode. We took this from a totally different show.
00:17:43.060
This is a base in Japan. Just kidding. Don't fact check us. But you see the same article rewritten
00:17:50.500
like 99 times from all sorts of, and they use the same exact words. Yeah. Like the dangerous rise and
00:17:55.700
anti-vax. It's like, you guys are plagiarizing each other, but whatever. That's a side note.
00:17:59.860
Plagiarism is cool. Apparently it's very hip. It's hip. It's trendy. We're so young and trendy. I want
00:18:04.180
to plagiarize now. But one thing that is kind of positive about this though, is that it does speak
00:18:08.820
to the fact that progressives are going to try to change the narrative and kind of change history
00:18:14.340
and rewrite it because they know that their ideas are crumbling and it's wrong. And I think we can
00:18:19.140
thank the truckers convoy for that because it's had such a, it's grown on like a global scale.
00:18:23.700
Right. Yeah. So I do think it is kind of exciting, but I think it's important for us to just remember
00:18:29.140
what happened. Don't forget what these people have done to you. Don't forget. Yes.
00:18:33.220
Like, don't be like you're in an abusive relationship and he comes home with flowers
00:18:36.420
one day and you're like, oh, I forgive you for everything. It's like, we shouldn't forget.
00:18:39.780
We should not forget. Hashtag never forget. Forgive, but forget. Hashtag.
00:18:43.700
Yeah. Forgive, but don't forget. Yeah. It's like, don't forget. Don't forget. Yeah.
00:18:49.620
You're like a scorned woman. People don't forget. Okay. Hell hath no fury. Exactly. Exactly.
00:18:54.900
Yeah. Let's talk about Tick Tock. Ooh, except for like, ooh, Tick Tock. Are we not ready there?
00:19:00.100
Oh, no, we are. Oh, we are there. Oh, we're ready. Oh, we're ready to talk about Tick Tock.
00:19:03.300
You know, keep your kids off of Tick Tock. Tick Tock is the worst. And also keep your kids
00:19:07.620
off Teen Vogue. Scary place. Oh my God. Yeah. But this is kind of a fruitful article actually. And I
00:19:13.860
thought when I originally was combing through it, I thought it was going to be pro, like, it's good that
00:19:19.380
Tick Tock is helping you self-diagnose your dissociative identity disorder. But no, it actually
00:19:24.260
is discouraging that. Oh my gosh. So that's refreshing. That is very refreshing. It is. It is.
00:19:28.180
What dissociative personality disorder have you diagnosed yourself with? Um, super bad. Bitch.
00:19:34.820
No, just kidding. I'm extremely arrogant. I'm not. You can see my halo. And well read.
00:19:38.580
So. But. We have narcissism, apparently. Well, yes. Well, there's that. A touch. A touch. A touch. But, um,
00:19:45.220
that's because professionals have told us. It's not because we saw a Tick Tock video that
00:19:48.740
made us self-diagnosed. But okay, let's get into this. So, um, I guess until recently,
00:19:52.980
it was pretty rare for patients to come to psychologists and say, hey, I have this mental
00:19:57.300
disorder. But now it's become normalized. Like it's, it's frequent, which I think is really scary.
00:20:01.780
So funny. And your, and your shrink is like, what? Who, who diagnosed you? No, no. Tick Tock.
00:20:06.500
This 16 year old on Tick Tock told me. Yeah. Like who's never met me. Yeah, exactly. She yelled it at me.
00:20:11.700
Exactly. Like, um, but so I guess multiple personality disorder is the more
00:20:18.340
common term for this. Um, and I, apparently a huge contributing factor to how you get diagnosed
00:20:23.300
is a traumatic event is usually how it kind of stems, what it stems from. Um, when you're 16
00:20:29.300
or 12 or 14, everything's traumatic. Everything is traumatizing. You remember middle school. Yeah.
00:20:34.180
It was scary. It was awful. It was horrible. It was a stabbing at my middle school. Well,
00:20:38.100
there you go. So traumatic event, but you know what? Only one or two personalities, not 20.
00:20:42.820
Exactly. I'm like pretty much fine. She's pretty much okay. I'm glad to hear it. Um, but I, I,
00:20:50.180
I just think like this whole normalization of mental health for young people. And it's like,
00:20:54.180
as you kind of said, we're like, when you're young, you're developing, you're growing,
00:20:57.460
you're figuring things out. Life is hard. You're confused. Hormones are a raging. Oh boy.
00:21:02.180
You know, you're sad. You're mad. You're happy, free, confused, and lonely at the same time as Taylor
00:21:06.980
Swift would say to quote Taylor. Um, you know, and it's true. Like you don't have a mental illness.
00:21:12.500
You're just a teenager. Like, well, sometimes I'm like super sad. It's like, that's called being
00:21:19.380
a female and having your period. Yeah. I'm like, but sometimes things are like too much and I can't
00:21:24.420
even. No, but you know, and like life is tough. And I think it's, it's not about like treating those
00:21:30.820
things with mental health labels or, you know, or, or diagnosing those things. Because then you can
00:21:35.300
just get a vaccine or a pill and you can just fix it. And you can't fix it because, you know,
00:21:39.940
I'm, and there's nothing against people who take drugs for their mental illnesses,
00:21:43.060
but I do wonder if maybe it's become too normalized. Yes. Definitely. The percentage
00:21:47.380
of people that are taking them is going up increasingly, increasingly. So it's like,
00:21:51.140
are we all sicker or are we just more likely to diagnose? Yeah. And maybe normalizing these
00:21:56.340
things to an extent has made it a slippery slope where we were too accepting. And it's like, well,
00:22:00.900
maybe you're not mentally ill. Maybe you just need a hobby or maybe you just need
00:22:05.140
a lifestyle change. Maybe your gut flora is messed up. Like the way that you perceive your mind and
00:22:10.100
how you're feeling actually starts in your gut. So if your stomach is out of sync and we have like,
00:22:15.140
you know, your microbiome is made out of billions of different kinds of bacteria.
00:22:19.060
If you have like less bacteria or like lower diversity, you can actually experience more
00:22:25.540
depression, more anxiety, even more like manic episodes. So,
00:22:29.380
so people might just be like hungry, you know, it makes sense because health is a holistic thing,
00:22:35.380
right? Your physical and mental health are in tune with each other. And I think going back to what
00:22:39.860
you were saying about the diagnosing thing, like even my husband, he, when he was younger,
00:22:46.740
his teachers were like, oh, you have ADHD. And they were told his parents, you need to get him on
00:22:50.180
some pills. And his parents were like, excuse me. Like, no, he's just a boy. He's just a little boy who
00:22:55.540
like needs a hobby. And now when he does something he really enjoys, he can focus, laser focus.
00:23:01.940
It's so good. Go back to the beginning of the episode.
00:23:05.380
Get back to it. I had the same thing when I was in kindergarten. My teacher or grade one,
00:23:09.460
my teacher said to my parents who are divorced and they were aligned on this. They were like,
00:23:13.540
oh, she has ADHD. She needs this and that. And they're like, no, she's just a creative little
00:23:18.260
kid who doesn't like math, who has energy, you know? Yeah.
00:23:21.380
And I just think, I hope when, you know, your kid comes to you and they're like, oh,
00:23:25.220
I'm suffering from this or I'm feeling this, that you don't rely on one diagnosis. Yeah.
00:23:29.460
I think it's important to play the field, so to speak. Well, it's, it's also important
00:23:34.260
on the other hand, if a kid is actually suffering to recognize that and take them to see a professional.
00:23:38.580
Like I have, again, in my family, someone is severely mentally ill. And without that,
00:23:44.900
like this person started getting diagnosed when they were a child and their diagnosis has changed
00:23:49.300
over years. But it's like, without that, like they might never have made it through school.
00:23:54.820
They might've ended up homeless. Like they, it's a severe mental illness. So it's like,
00:23:59.860
you know, let's not, let's not write, use up all the scripts on the people who are just like
00:24:04.180
eating too many cheesecakes and having like normal teenage anxiety. And like, let's save it for the
00:24:09.380
people who actually have mental, like serious mental illness. Yeah. That's a great point. I think
00:24:14.500
as with anything, it's about a balance in how we approach diagnosing people and how we approach
00:24:19.940
treating people. A very bigoted opinion you have there. Balance. No, it's a one size fit all.
00:24:25.780
Everyone's sick and we can all get vaccinated for it. Moving on. Bigots. Bigots. Uh, yeah. We should
00:24:31.460
talk about, um, maybe being a woman. I love talking about being a woman. Really? Because I am one. But
00:24:38.020
am I allowed to say that? No, I was just going to say canceled. Sorry. You're not allowed to say
00:24:44.100
you're, you love being a woman. You're not allowed to say you're proud to be a woman. You're probably
00:24:47.700
not even allowed to say, I am a woman. Hear me roar. No, I'm a woman. What is that? It's just a,
00:24:52.980
it's just a, what do they call it? Um, what do they call gender? I don't know. It's a construct. Yes.
00:25:01.460
It's, I was wondering about that. Cause it's like when you go to the zoo and you're like,
00:25:05.300
there's a female penguin, there's a male penguin. And you're like, it's just a construct.
00:25:10.180
Like, no, like some things are not a construct. Some things are binary.
00:25:14.660
What we're talking about specifically is last week, Adele at the Brit Awards, uh, outraged a
00:25:22.100
bunch of people when she said she loved being a woman. Yeah. And I guess for the awards, they may,
00:25:27.300
it's a gender neutral category cause they didn't want to offend the many they, them's in our society.
00:25:31.540
Cause there's so many they, them artists. It was only Demi Lovato. It was just
00:25:34.980
who didn't even have any music. Yeah. She wasn't even nominated, but it was for her.
00:25:38.820
Um, and so despite the odds, she beat out every gender. So I would say that's, that's an amazing
00:25:47.540
feat and she should be especially proud as a woman, you know, and not to act like a lefty,
00:25:52.420
but we know women have had to work very hard in certain industries to get to where they are.
00:25:55.620
She deserves to be proud. Yes. Facts. Um, so the, and the funny thing about this is that
00:26:02.580
at the actual event, people cheered her on. We can watch the video from Ian Miles. Well,
00:26:08.020
it's not from him, but he tweeted it. Um, our coworker, Ian Miles Chong, he posted the video,
00:26:14.020
but in the video you can see, she says, I'm so proud to be a woman. I love being a female artist.
00:26:18.420
And the crowd cheers for her. Yay. And it wasn't until later that people went on Twitter and were
00:26:24.820
like, no, no, no, you're offended. That's offensive. She's a TERF. Like what's a TERF?
00:26:28.740
Why is it? It sounds horrible. Okay. But what about, okay. Let's go back to the TERF thing. Yeah.
00:26:33.460
Let's talk about TERF. Okay. What does that mean? I actually don't know what it means.
00:26:36.420
It's like a, it's a trans exclusionary radical feminist. Oh, okay. So what happens when let's
00:26:43.940
say trans people become the norm, everyone's trans in society and you are a trans artist and you win
00:26:49.700
this award and you say, I'm proud to be trans. Is the mob going to eat you too? Cause it seems like
00:26:54.020
a slippery slope. It's like, you're never safe. No. First they came after men. Now they're coming
00:26:58.420
after women. Next it's going to be they, them. Yeah. Yeah. Absolutely. It's just like how homosexuals are no
00:27:04.180
longer in that protected category. It's like gay people, lesbian people are almost being
00:27:10.100
erased with the inclusion of so many new genders. It's like, maybe my little boy who likes to wear
00:27:17.460
dresses isn't necessarily a man trapped in a woman's body or a woman trapped in a man's body.
00:27:23.300
Maybe he's just a gay boy. Yeah. What's wrong with that? Or maybe he just wants to be a theater actor.
00:27:27.940
Yeah. Maybe he's just Metro or super into baking, like, or homosexual. Like why do we have to take
00:27:33.700
everything to the craziest, craziest like degree? I think it's because, and you can correct me if
00:27:39.620
you don't agree. I think it's because these people are so miserable that they want to normalize this
00:27:44.340
stuff. Cause they want you to be miserable too. Like Demi Lovato is the perfect example.
00:27:47.460
Yeah. She is not a happy person. She's not. No. And I mean, we'll pray for her. Yes. Pray for her.
00:27:52.340
But like, she's like, oh, let's normalize, you know, being they, them non-binary let's normalize
00:27:57.620
having sex with anyone you want. And it's like, well, you don't look happy and you're doing those things.
00:28:02.180
And you're encouraging me as a vulnerable 16 year old to think that's okay. And it's
00:28:08.900
not okay because it's going to like, sorry, no, no, go, go. I was just going to say, like,
00:28:13.700
it kind of makes me think that they don't want anyone to feel sturdy on the ground. Like they want
00:28:19.060
the landscape proverbial to come be shifting all the time. So no one's really safe. No one can just
00:28:26.020
walk around and be like, I'm a confident young woman. It's like, no, no, no, nope. That's offensive.
00:28:29.860
This week's like, okay, next week I'm a confident birthing person. It's like, oh, but birthing.
00:28:35.860
Can you really use that word? Yeah. Where do you draw the line? Yeah, exactly. I think they just
00:28:39.460
want everyone to feel very unstable and insecure like they do. And I think that the whole TikTok
00:28:44.660
mental health diagnosis even plays into that because it's like social media is so explosive
00:28:49.140
and so expansive and we all have access to it. And this is where we're getting these ideas from.
00:28:54.580
Social media is what's pushing these on us. So it's, it's interesting. It is interesting.
00:28:59.940
Social media is kind of terrible. Take your kids off social media. Yeah, seriously. Like
00:29:04.260
my mom made me delete Instagram yesterday because I'm 16. And you're going to be so much better off.
00:29:09.620
I am. Yeah, that's okay. You can get it for the prom and then you can like,
00:29:13.540
Oh yeah. Delete it again. Delete it again. Yeah. So Adele is a bigot. She is a TERF.
00:29:20.180
Yeah. So cancel her. Yeah. She's canceled. Cancel. Don't respect all our wonderful achievements.
00:29:26.340
Speaking of erasing achievements. I mean, it's not really erasing achievements, but female figure
00:29:32.260
skaters will no longer be referred to as ladies because that's offensive. Yeah. So I was a little
00:29:38.500
shocked by this. So when you go down and read the article, it says they're going to call them women
00:29:43.220
instead because what that's the same freaking thing. It's, it's, it's synonymous. It's synonymous.
00:29:49.300
I know it doesn't make it's apparently the term ladies takes away their power and their athleticism
00:29:55.140
and their sexuality is what the reasoning behind this is. And I really think that we live in a clown
00:30:00.340
world because that makes zero freaking sense. No one knows anything. They're just making these
00:30:04.580
arbitrary calls. Like woman is okay this week, but ladies is offensive. And we will see in,
00:30:11.220
in next year or whatever, they'll say, Oh, women's is a race. They'll do the Brit award thing where it's
00:30:16.260
like best skater. And is lady though, a more feminine word to you? Because I mean, in general,
00:30:24.100
figure skating is a very dainty sport. They're like little gazelles flying through the air, like
00:30:28.740
butterflies with knives on their feet, with knives on their feet. But you know, but it's a very feminine
00:30:33.940
sport. And that doesn't take away from their athleticism and their skill. No, like gymnastics.
00:30:38.020
Yeah. A little bit of a feminine sport too, but they're the most ripped. Yeah. They jacked.
00:30:42.260
Yeah. They are probably the strongest athletes in the Olympics. Yeah. The summer Olympics. Yeah. Arguably.
00:30:47.940
Arguably. So, I mean, I don't really get how that word is offensive when it's very clearly a very
00:30:53.300
feminine sport. Just like you guys are, you guys need to just take a vacation. Oh my God. At this rate,
00:31:00.900
every word will be canceled. Yeah. I think we've canceled this show about 15 times already. Yeah.
00:31:05.860
This show is canceled. We should just do it in silence next week. Yeah. What do you think?
00:31:15.300
All right. Here's something interesting about feminism. Yesterday, here's the article title.
00:31:22.820
Yesterday, I was Levi's brand president. I quit so I could be free. So this is Jennifer Say. She was the
00:31:31.060
Levi's brand president and she quit her job because she felt like she couldn't speak out on
00:31:37.220
COVID lockdowns and the effect that they were having on children specifically. Like that's her
00:31:42.420
hill to die on is kids in classrooms and learning. And she has some good quotes here. I'm going to read
00:31:50.900
from the, uh, what is this? Where are we? Right. This article is, uh, I know what it is. It's the,
00:31:59.300
you know, Substack. Sorry. My God. Okay. So here's a quote from her. Things changed when COVID hit.
00:32:06.020
Early on in the pandemic, I publicly questioned whether schools had to be shut down. This didn't
00:32:10.580
seem at all controversial to me. I felt and still do that the draconian policies would cause the most
00:32:15.220
harm to those least at risk and burden and the burden would fall heaviest on the disadvantaged kids in
00:32:20.420
public schools who need the safety and routine of school the most. Yes. Yes. Some of us have been
00:32:27.300
saying that it was, it's so easy for rich people and elitists who have nannies. Maybe you're not
00:32:32.820
that rich. You don't have a nanny, but you have a house, you have a backyard, you have a basement,
00:32:36.180
you have a room for mom and dad to go and do their work. And then you have kids in their own special area.
00:32:40.900
But what if you're social socially economically disadvantaged and you live in an apartment,
00:32:45.540
you have multiple brothers and sisters. Maybe you have a single parent who doesn't work from home.
00:32:50.580
They work in a service job. They work in the front line. So they are taking the bus away from
00:32:55.620
their kids. Like you have to now pay for a nanny. You have to have a tutor. You have to make sure that
00:32:59.540
you have internet and laptops at home, which not everybody has. We all like, I have internet,
00:33:06.420
but I am not necessarily representative of everybody. So it's like, we're hurting poor kids
00:33:13.780
the most with these lockdowns. And in order to keep everything politically correct, this woman,
00:33:21.060
Jennifer say was silenced by Levi's. They said that Levi's told her, you know, when you speak,
00:33:27.860
you speak on behalf of the company and in relation to her personal Twitter account. And Jennifer was like,
00:33:34.020
this is my personal Twitter account. I don't have that. I work for Levi's on it. Like this,
00:33:38.020
these are my views as a woman, as a mother of four. She also has, um, two adopted black children,
00:33:42.660
or maybe they're not adopted. She said in her, she's two black kids, two black kids. So, you know,
00:33:47.140
huge racist. Yeah, obviously also important to know that she was the first female, um, to ever be the
00:33:54.820
global black brand president, the first woman, and she's being silenced for caring for her children
00:34:00.500
by a company who preaches about inclusivity literally all the time. They're so woke. Like
00:34:06.900
they literally play the game with all of their vote shirts and their whatever BLM. I'm sure they've
00:34:13.380
dabbled in there too. And it's funny cause she actually is not a conservative. No, she, she's,
00:34:18.180
she's done activism for leftist ish things before. Um, so I just, it's funny that the, you're just never
00:34:24.100
safe from the mob. You're never safe from wokeism. If you want to protect women or children,
00:34:28.500
you're now a crazy right wing conspiracy theorist. Yeah. Yeah. But those seem like things that
00:34:33.940
liberals should care about. Yeah. And yet you are blamed and she didn't get fired. She resigned,
00:34:39.300
but because she was being muzzled and she was like, I want to speak out and we use my platform
00:34:44.020
to help children. Horrible woman. What a terrible person. She's a huge bigot. And I actually never
00:34:50.500
heard of her and me either. I'm interested in who she is. But it is kind of funny that these companies
00:34:56.260
and people who work for these companies who like, who claim to be so progressive and inclusive and
00:35:02.260
they love liberty and freedom, they try to silence these people. Like, how is that?
00:35:08.340
I don't think they love liberty or freedom, but they pretend to claim to though, right?
00:35:11.940
And they claim to love free speech and be authentic. You see that all the time in advertising
00:35:17.620
and pop culture music, like be authentically you. Yeah. Don't apologize. But unless you offend the
00:35:24.660
woke mob and then you have to apologize for everything, you need to resign, you need to
00:35:28.500
change who you are. Move, change your name, change your, yes. Get a wig. Remember when JLo,
00:35:34.100
during the first BLM, it was when the term Black Lives Matter became very popular and she tweeted
00:35:40.420
All Lives Matter and was all dragged and she immediately deleted it. And she obviously got
00:35:46.260
out of that unscathed because she has a new rom-com coming out today. Like she hosted or she was the
00:35:52.740
the talent at last year's Super Bowl. She's been successful. She's still one of the elites and she
00:35:59.540
she made that choice. She had an opinion and she immediately walked it back and apologized for saying
00:36:04.580
all lives matter. Like that's such an offensive thing to say. Well, it's just, there's so many
00:36:10.420
signs on all these progressive lawns now that say like Asian lives matter, every child. It's like,
00:36:14.980
I guess that means all lives do matter. I don't know. Yeah. Yeah. Right. Every child matters,
00:36:18.980
but only if it's a black child, but also if it's an indigenous child. Trans lives matter.
00:36:23.060
Yeah. All of them. But if you're unvaccinated, your life doesn't matter at all. And you're scum.
00:36:27.780
But the mob, man, we should talk about the mob because we were talking about Joe Rogan last week. He,
00:36:32.420
he's going to get this off. You have a hair on your eye line. Thank you so much.
00:36:35.700
We care for each other. That's my Valentine's gift. Yes. You're welcome.
00:36:38.980
You know, Joe Rogan apologized. And of course the word he said though,
00:36:42.900
context does matter is not a word that we should use, but I, we, he shouldn't have apologized
00:36:48.340
because it's never going to be enough for these people. You're never going to be progressive enough.
00:36:51.460
You're never going to be woke enough. You're never going to please them. So stop.
00:36:54.100
Exactly. They say, oh, you apologize. Cool. What else can we get out of you? What else can we ring from
00:36:58.340
your court? Exactly. What other old tweet can we find from 2003? Exactly. Twitter probably wasn't
00:37:02.180
even around then. Oh, it was. Oh, really? Oh, Twitter. No, I don't know. I've been on since 2011.
00:37:08.100
So I'm all bad. I'm all bad. In the womb. Crazy. I wasn't even born. Oh my God.
00:37:15.380
Yeah. Thanks for reminding me. I'm 16. I keep slipping up and telling people I'm 30, but I think
00:37:21.300
bigot. No, she's 16. But it's funny though. Cause you know, these progressives who
00:37:27.780
push these people to have these views, they end up pushing them over the line and then they become
00:37:32.100
conservatives. Yeah. Like Jordan Peterson is a great example. He recently tweeted about how the
00:37:36.260
left is so crazy now that he basically has to be a conservative. Yeah. Because it's just,
00:37:41.140
they're too radical. Well, that's the thing. If you're in the center and then the left
00:37:44.500
moves so far left, you are pushed over to the right. And then all of a sudden it's like,
00:37:48.660
you're not just right. You're extreme, right? Yeah. You're far right. You know what? My advice
00:37:52.980
to progressives, keep doing what you're doing. Cause we're getting more good people on our side.
00:37:56.740
Like so true. Like be crazy. Yeah. Like Gina Carano's this kind of same thing happened to the,
00:38:02.740
to the Levi's woman is Gina Carano was on Star Wars and she said some things and they canceled her.
00:38:09.700
And now she's like, well, I guess I'm a hardcore right wing extremist now working with Ben Shapiro
00:38:14.660
on a movie. You know what? Be crazy. Red pill them all. We'll take them. Yeah. We want y'all. Yeah,
00:38:20.260
we do. We are actually inclusive and loving, which is so weird. Um, you know who else is so cool and
00:38:29.140
just like us? Who? Stars. Stars. They're just like us. This article is so funny. First of all,
00:38:38.660
these are the same articles that were on every like crappy pop culture magazine by the grocery
00:38:44.980
checkout. Like Tiger Beat. Yeah. Like this is not a new concept, but the first, okay, keep scrolling.
00:38:49.940
Thank you. So go up a little bit. Okay. So the first, first example is they get pampered. Wow.
00:38:56.100
Celebrities getting pampered. I mean, relatable thing. It's much, much too relatable. I feel like
00:39:03.300
they're in the room with me right now. Like when's the last time you were pampered? I don't even know
00:39:08.020
what that means. Look at my cuticles. Yeah. Like what does that mean? This is disgusting. Like we can't,
00:39:12.020
we're not even allowed to get pampered in some places because we unjabbed. We unjabbed. You know,
00:39:17.620
anyway, we're filth. We're filth. Let's see some other ones though. Cause I just want to,
00:39:21.860
I just want to know just how they're so similar to us. Okay. They change in the parking lot. Okay.
00:39:27.380
Well, he's a man, so women can't do that. What? That's a bit bigoted. That's a dude. I can't do
00:39:32.100
that. Just taking off his shirt. I know. Men can do that though. You can basically take off your clothes
00:39:35.620
forever. Yeah. Whatever. It's, who is this guy even? Adam Brody. Oh, who cares? Okay. Yeah.
00:39:44.260
Who's this? They eat food. They eat fro-yo. I'm guessing. Is this fro-yo? What is it? Let's see.
00:39:49.540
Let's see. They eat treats. Oh, wow. Have you ever had a treat? No. Me either. What? Oh my gosh. She,
00:39:58.260
they eat treats. It would be funnier if they said they eat. Yeah. Like, do they though? Cause I don't think
00:40:03.380
they do. I don't think so. They're getting some sort of gelatin injection vaccination. We wear masks
00:40:07.780
outside. Is that it? No. It's definitely what it is. They stock up on groceries. Oh. Okay. She did
00:40:13.540
that once. What is that? A giant bag of Epsom salts? She's only done this once in her whole life.
00:40:18.260
Yeah. Her car is so empty. She has someone else doing that for her. Who is, what is this? And who,
00:40:22.020
and what is she buying? You know what? If you weren't wearing a mask, we'd know who you are. Oh,
00:40:25.380
Neve Campbell. Okay, Neve. That's funny. Who knew? Who would have thought that they got groceries? I know. How,
00:40:31.700
how, but they're so much like us. I know. I had no idea. I had no idea how similar we were.
00:40:36.260
They were so relatable. So relatable. Who's this? They exercise. They walk on with their own feet.
00:40:42.180
They jump. They sweat it out. Well, yes, they all have to. Obviously they do. Yeah. That's the one
00:40:47.460
thing we knew that they did. Yeah. That's literally all they do for themselves is work out. I love how
00:40:52.340
many mask picks there. What is this one? I know. They carry keys. They order their drink to go. Oh my God.
00:40:59.620
What is this article? They're not going to get it to stay. They're going to be swarmed by fans.
00:41:04.260
Maybe not her because no one cares who she is. This is Ashley Simpson, I think. Oh.
00:41:08.020
Like no one really knows who you are, Ashley. I'm sorry. Especially in the mask. But you know,
00:41:11.460
most people, most celebrities, I can see you getting your coffee to go. You don't want to be swarmed.
00:41:15.700
Yeah. I'm thinking of stinkers. No, I'm just kidding. Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's mansion is
00:41:21.220
engulfed by foul smell. I would just like to say, this is all I had in the notes. Maybe it's their fault because they
00:41:28.260
stink. That's why their house stinks. Because they stink. I have nothing to add. You have nothing
00:41:32.740
to add? No. We're moving on? Yep. Okay, great. I love that. So stinky house, guys. They stink.
00:41:37.540
Stinky people. So speaking of stars being just like us. Just like us. Haley Bieber allegedly starts
00:41:44.500
her five minute. It's not. Well, we should just stop there. Full stop. Five minute makeup routine.
00:41:49.540
Okay. Who believes that? Okay. She is naturally beautiful. Yeah. And very rich. And has had plastic
00:41:56.180
surgery. But yeah. But no, I don't believe it. So she starts her five minute makeup routine with
00:42:00.260
this anti-aging serum that is probably not actually this anti-aging serum. No, yeah. So
00:42:07.220
is she talking about like her regular like hanging out on a yacht with Justin look? Because maybe,
00:42:12.260
maybe she's just doing like serum and sunscreen. But like, is she talking about like that picture? Yeah.
00:42:16.740
That's a five minute. Like, that's not a five minute face. Those brows took six minutes. It's at
00:42:20.420
least. It's a five million dollar face that she bought. Yeah. No, no, no, no, no, no. But it's
00:42:24.020
annoying that celebrities always try to push these stupid products on us. Yeah. That we know they're
00:42:27.620
not actually using. They're like, you use this. And we try it. And then I end up looking like an ogre.
00:42:32.580
Yeah. Like, doesn't she have a new skincare line? It's like, it'll leave you looking like a glazed donut.
00:42:37.140
It's like, okay, how do you look like that from the studio lights? It's like, give me something I can use. It's
00:42:41.220
the sweat. Haley. Like, I want to know what she's using. Yeah. While she's creating her fake
00:42:46.180
product that no one's, I mean, people will buy. But like, what are you, what are you actually
00:42:50.340
using? Is it La Mer? Is that what you're using? She's, she has a hookup. Oh my gosh. Like, I feel
00:42:55.540
like it's. I would love to raid her closet. There must be like a celebrity underground
00:42:58.820
like skincare and like line. Yeah. They love their stem cells. Yeah, they do. They really do. But like,
00:43:04.180
we like, this sets such a bad example for women. They're like, oh, you can look just like me. And it's
00:43:08.820
like, no, I can't. I've been trying for 16 years. Look at me. Like, I don't look like you. Like,
00:43:13.140
all I have access to is like actual affordable creams. Yeah. Like I, like I could, laser would
00:43:18.900
be nice or like some, here they have like sonar, like sound technology that can like bounce your
00:43:24.900
face right back to like baby state. Like there's so many things that we cannot afford. No. I'm
00:43:30.820
surprised that we look so good. I know. Like, it's not just the amazing lighting. It's, it's partially
00:43:36.180
that. It's partially a hundred percent that. But one day when we do get old, you know, it's going to be
00:43:41.380
tough for us as regular people. It's going to be hard. Like we're going to get fired and replaced
00:43:44.900
by a real 16 year old. But I mean, it's just such a bad example when you're scrolling, scrolling
00:43:51.300
through social media and you see these stars who are like, no makeup selfie or like, look at my
00:43:54.660
skincare. You can look just like me. And it's like, I can't like comparison is the thief of joy. And
00:43:59.060
that's what social media aims to do. They want us to be miserable and they want us to be insecure.
00:44:03.220
And it's working and you celebrities, you have a platform. You need to use it for good, not evil.
00:44:08.100
We will not look like you, Haley. Not even close. You know, we'll look like ourselves though.
00:44:13.700
Yeah. And that's not so bad. It could be worse. Yeah. Could be better. I saw some,
00:44:18.660
some ad that was like, I used one of the Jenners or one of the Kardashians. I think it's the old one.
00:44:23.860
What's her name? Khloe? Khloe. Uh, no. Kourtney. Kourtney. Kourtney Kardashian's like face
00:44:31.220
laser. Oh, the mask thing. Yeah. And it's like, blue is for redness. Red, like red is for
00:44:36.740
collagen. And it's like, I love that kind of stuff. I'm super into it, but it's like,
00:44:39.940
how much does that cost? Yeah. And you, and Kourtney Kardashian's probably wearing that like
00:44:43.940
24 hours a day. She takes it off, takes a picture, natural look, puts it back on. Like
00:44:48.500
I'm out here getting these free radicals on my face, like bus exhaust and like dust and dander and
00:44:55.300
actual stresses. We live in the city. We live in a real world. Like I can't just sit with a frigging
00:44:59.380
laser face on all day. Yeah. And I bet any cheap version of that facial is going to make us look like,
00:45:04.980
you know, the man behind the mask or whatever. Yeah. We're not going to want to take the mask
00:45:08.820
off after we put it on. Yeah, exactly. Like it's going to be, don't buy that on like Amazon or
00:45:15.220
Alibaba. Just don't, don't do it. Stay with your dermatologist people. Absolutely. Oh, okay.
00:45:21.540
I think we're rounding things out here. We have one final thing to talk about with you guys today.
00:45:28.420
This is actual fun fashion. I haven't looked at it. Me either. Okay. So this is,
00:45:31.860
this is the Copenhagen fashion week from fall winter, 2022. Wait, fall winter. Maybe it's
00:45:37.540
fashion week, 2022. Oh, I thought it was fall winter. I was like, wait, no, I think you're
00:45:45.460
right. I think it's fashion week, 2022. Okay. So five trends that will be everywhere soon,
00:45:48.900
according to Copenhagen fashion week. Um, they're obviously the leaders of fashion in the world.
00:45:57.060
I would argue everything they do trickles down here and then we have to find it in a sale bin.
00:46:00.900
Basically just wear black. Yeah. But I love Scandi fashion. I love Scandi everything. I want to live
00:46:06.660
there. If someone wants to sponsor me, call me. I'm more like a New York kind of person myself,
00:46:12.340
you know? I love New York too. Yeah. Street style, red lips. We'll do New York fashion week next time.
00:46:15.620
We'll do that next time. But anyway, let's look at some of the clothes. Let's look at it.
00:46:18.740
Uh, a new way to heige? I think this is like a minimalist, uh, I think heige is like a, oh,
00:46:27.220
look is a Danish term for creating a warm and comfortable atmosphere. Wow. I was so wrong on
00:46:31.300
that. So what they look kind of, it's like teddy bear material, kind of a little bit like it looks
00:46:36.260
like a couch. I love all these like fanny packs. Yeah. I'm loving the fanny pack too. I love that.
00:46:41.620
Yeah. It's like a belt with like a little flapper on it. If someone would like to send those to us,
00:46:45.300
we will happily camel. Yeah. I'm down with black. Um, but okay. That's not bad. But it kind of,
00:46:51.220
you remember our first episode when we talked about dystopian fashion, that kind of gives me
00:46:54.820
those vibes. It's very muted, kind of like not flattering. I know it looks comfy, but I don't
00:46:59.220
know how I feel about it. They're like, just be comfy. It's fine. You're going to be locked in your
00:47:02.420
house for the next six years anyways. Like you might as well just get a teddy and a fanny pack. And I'm
00:47:06.580
like, I'm here for it. But it's like, no, we must remind ourselves. Yeah. Corsets all the time.
00:47:11.140
Yes. Discomfort in fashion. Like we talked about the other week with like boat hair.
00:47:15.140
We want to take it to the next level. We're not trying to get all cozy and sleepy. No. What
00:47:20.340
else do we have on that list? Yeah. Let's see. Oh, forbidden fruit roll up. No. Yeah. I mean,
00:47:26.340
the thing is like, this only looks good on certain people, tall, really skinny ones. Yeah. Like you,
00:47:31.780
you know, the, like the stripe, the, the horizontal stripe, that's not good on anyone unless you're
00:47:36.500
Kendall Jenner. Oh, none of these look good to me. I'm not loving it either. I don't, you know,
00:47:42.660
like a six year old me would be like, that's fun. Yeah. Stripes. I can, my little brain can
00:47:47.700
comprehend that, but no, no, I agree. No, it's not dystopian. Oh yeah. We can, we can vibe with this.
00:47:55.700
Oh my God. Marie Antoinette. Oh my God. So this is like, this is us. Yeah. Baroque and, and lots of
00:48:02.820
fabrics. I love that pink dress. I need that. A little bit of like ornate lavishness. Yeah.
00:48:08.260
A little bit. It's gorgeous. I would love to see you in that pink dress. In the hair. Yeah. No boats in
00:48:13.060
the hair, but we can, we can work with that. We can, we can add it ourselves. Yeah. We can add our own
00:48:17.860
boats. Okay. So there's hope for 2022 fashion. That's a fun one. You can be a little feminine.
00:48:21.860
It sounds like. Yeah. That's good. Oh, no. And we lost it. And we're out. Why not wear a giant brown
00:48:29.700
tent? Well, here's why, because we're in this dystopian hell hole. So we're going to need to wear
00:48:34.660
where we live. Yes, exactly. I think that's, they're trying to be proactive, I think. Yeah. Like
00:48:40.100
why not just look like a turd? An actual turd. Why not hide your female curves? Your beautiful figure.
00:48:46.820
Just hide it under a blanket. That you starve and starve yourself to get, put it under a tent
00:48:52.580
or a sleeping bag. Great. That it's brown for some reason. Yeah. That's lovely. That's steady.
00:48:59.300
Wow. That was hideous. That was a, I like the Marie Antoinette vibe. Me too. I feel like we set that
00:49:04.100
trend. I think we did. I think it was you last week. I think it was a mutual thing. I think Copenhagen is like
00:49:09.300
watching us? I think so. Oh my God. Hi, Copenhagen. Hey. Hi. But you know,
