00:00:08 Speaker 1: And I invited you here. I thought I made myself perfectly clear. When you're a guest in my home, you gotta come to me empty. And I said, no, guests, you're presences presents enough. I already had too much stuff. 00:00:35 Speaker 2: So how do you dare to surbey me? 00:00:47 Speaker 3: Welcome to I said, no gift. I'm bridge winer ger, of course. And look you caught me at a bad time. Well, I mean there's some good news and some bad news. I had to go to the dentist this morning at eight am. You know, a few episodes ago, I was talking about the possibility of my permanent retainer being removed, and today was the day. Today I had it removed. We also had a filling replaced. And so my mouth is very numb. Well we're thawing out here. But there's a chance midway through the podcast that you know, I'm struck by pain. But I just wanted to fill you in. You know, some podcasts people might promise that dental work and then not get the dental work. But I follow through. I got the dental work done. I'm now living life without a permanent retainer. A weight has been lifted. We can all calm down. And it's a good time to calm down because you're about to get excited because our guest is fantastic. She's so funny. Danielle Perez, Danielle, welcome to I said, no gifts. 00:01:54 Speaker 2: Thank you, thank you for having me. 00:01:57 Speaker 3: Oh, it's a huge day, I think for both of us. Let's just say it to the retainer. 00:02:02 Speaker 2: It is dental work. 00:02:04 Speaker 4: That's amazing life post permanent retainer. 00:02:08 Speaker 2: How is that? Is that freeing? Is liberating? Is it everything you imagined it would be. 00:02:12 Speaker 3: No, I'm going to be honest, I had very Maybe my expectations were a little too high, but I've been waiting literally for twenty years for this thing to be removed, and I think the combination of also having the filling replaced this morning, the first filling I've had replaced in my adult life, excruciating. 00:02:32 Speaker 2: Yes, I had no idea. There's a reason dentists have a bad rap. 00:02:37 Speaker 3: They had like a vacuum in my mouth for like an hour. If I thought I was so close to acting out, I was like, Oh, this is just never going to end. I'm going to have to yank this out of my mouth and leave. I don't care, it's just what a process. 00:02:52 Speaker 2: Who would have thought? But yeah, here we are. 00:02:55 Speaker 3: You know, it soured the occasion. My mouth still numb on some level. 00:03:03 Speaker 2: That's fun though it's not funny. 00:03:06 Speaker 4: One side of your mouth is like doesn't know what the other side's doing. That sounds like a party. 00:03:12 Speaker 2: Have you been to the dentist in the last year. 00:03:15 Speaker 3: I have. 00:03:16 Speaker 2: I went to the dentist recently. I had a cleaning. 00:03:18 Speaker 4: But right before the pee, I chipped a tooth. Oh no, from like just grinding my teeth, you know when you got TMJ. So I chipped my tooth and they had to replace it. But they made the replacement too high. Oh so every time I chewed it ached, so I just started chewing on the left side. 00:03:46 Speaker 2: Of my mouth. I was like, am I gonna have an uneven face? 00:03:51 Speaker 3: Danielle's extremely toned left side of her face? 00:03:54 Speaker 1: Right? 00:03:57 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, That's the. 00:03:59 Speaker 3: Thing that the dentist. Every time I'm there, I'm like, there's a chance whoever's doing this just is maybe they're not that good at their job or don't know what they're doing. 00:04:07 Speaker 2: I don't I couldn't tell. 00:04:08 Speaker 4: Right, Yeah, I just feel I'm like, shouldn't you have known that. 00:04:11 Speaker 2: The filling was a little too high. 00:04:14 Speaker 4: Before I left and then couldn't come back. 00:04:16 Speaker 2: For over a year. You were living with it for a full year. Yeah, because of the pandemic. 00:04:23 Speaker 3: No, that's so unfair. 00:04:25 Speaker 2: It was really it was cruel, but we got it handled. 00:04:29 Speaker 4: So now I can chew on both sides of my mouth and all is good in the world. 00:04:34 Speaker 3: Congrats, huge congratulations to both of us. Honestly, I mean that at least gave you something to do during the pandemic, something to keep your mind off of everything else that was going on. 00:04:45 Speaker 4: Right, Yeah, let's focus on what's really going on. 00:04:51 Speaker 2: I mean, are you vaccinated now? I am? 00:04:55 Speaker 3: Oh, congratulations, thank you, thank you. 00:04:58 Speaker 2: How's that feeling? 00:05:00 Speaker 4: Oh it feels freeing. I got my nails done. 00:05:03 Speaker 2: I noticed this thank. 00:05:05 Speaker 3: You as we were clapping to start the episode. It's like, wow, somebody has been to the nail. 00:05:09 Speaker 4: Salon I have, and now I can't do a single thing. I can't type, I can't clasp a bra I'm useless. 00:05:17 Speaker 2: And I love that for myself. I love that for you. But what else has been going on? You know? Just that? Uh? 00:05:28 Speaker 4: Seeing friends, that's been fun, hanging out with friends. The Vaccinated crew I got a fire pit in front of. 00:05:36 Speaker 2: My house, so I'm so jealous. 00:05:40 Speaker 4: In the pandemic, I was like, we gotta, we gotta make plans. 00:05:44 Speaker 3: Right, do you ever to make a s'more in this fire pit? 00:05:47 Speaker 2: No, Danielle, what are you doing? 00:05:52 Speaker 4: I don't want to have marshmallow gou all in my fire pit. That's for camping, that's for you know, leaving the woods. 00:06:02 Speaker 2: Leave it in the woods. Leave it for a bear, for a hungry animal. 00:06:07 Speaker 4: That's not for her. The fire pithods and that's aesthetic. 00:06:11 Speaker 3: You know. This is so stressful for me to hear you just have a fireplace within, you know, a few feet of your house, and all you're doing is warmth and beauty. 00:06:22 Speaker 2: I'm sorry. You need you need food. You need us more I need. 00:06:25 Speaker 3: I have no other occasion to roast a marshmallow ding. 00:06:30 Speaker 2: This is ridiculous. 00:06:31 Speaker 3: I want you to go out there before summer's end and roast a marshmallow. 00:06:36 Speaker 2: It's the least you can do. 00:06:38 Speaker 1: I will do. 00:06:38 Speaker 2: I will do it in your honor. Thank you. 00:06:41 Speaker 3: The Bridger Wineger Memorial marshmallow love that. 00:06:45 Speaker 4: I'll post a picture of it with a little plaque. 00:06:49 Speaker 3: That's beautiful. Well, how has I mean, the last year has obviously been out of control, but I mean how has it been for you personally? Have you been able to enjoy yourself in any way? Or is its been? 00:07:01 Speaker 2: Yeah? 00:07:01 Speaker 4: I mean I've gone in honestly very into skincaren makeup. I'm really doubled down on what can I do to feel comfort? And colored eyeliners are it? 00:07:18 Speaker 2: I got a new palette of pastel. 00:07:21 Speaker 4: Here you can see a pastel. 00:07:26 Speaker 2: I'm so obsessed. 00:07:28 Speaker 3: I mean, I don't wear eyeliner and just the look of that, right, Yes, it's beautiful. 00:07:34 Speaker 2: I love that. So getting into that. 00:07:38 Speaker 4: Serums, oh man, I'm going to the dermatologist now, oh boy. 00:07:43 Speaker 2: Getting micro needling. Have you heard of micro needling? 00:07:45 Speaker 3: I've heard of it, but like what I'm currently picturing is horrifying and it's probably not as scary as what I'm picturing, and I'd like to know it. 00:07:52 Speaker 2: Is it is. They numb your face. 00:07:56 Speaker 4: They literally numb your face and then it is like a you're it is like your face goes through a sewing machine. They take a motorized needle and just run it across your face back and forth. 00:08:10 Speaker 2: You are fully, conscious fully awake. 00:08:12 Speaker 4: You are spite the numbing, you are feeling those punctures and it's amazing and your skin looks incredible, like. 00:08:20 Speaker 3: A reverse hell raiser or something. 00:08:22 Speaker 2: Basically, wait, yeah, so what does it like? Truly? 00:08:24 Speaker 3: What is happening like? What is the point of this? What is the science here? 00:08:28 Speaker 2: The science? Yes, I'm famously a scientist. 00:08:32 Speaker 3: Yes, so that's why I asked you here, But don't skirt around the issue. 00:08:36 Speaker 2: You went to college for a reason. 00:08:38 Speaker 4: The science is that the punctures stimulate collagen regeneration and growth, so that gives you like the fullness, the plumpness, the like youthful wow, a youthful glow. 00:08:53 Speaker 2: And so are you like bleeding when this is happening? 00:08:56 Speaker 4: Yes, you are. They she wipes off the blood and then your face looks like it has been mauled for three to five days, and then you look great, Well. 00:09:09 Speaker 3: This is a great pandemic activity for five days. 00:09:14 Speaker 4: The pandemic was really like a prima opportunity to get work done. And I feel like I missed my window because I have a double chin and I had it before the pandemic, but it's really only gone worse. And I was like asking about I was like, what can we do about this? And like kaibella is like this injectable, another injectable thing, another injectable. We love in it. 00:09:37 Speaker 2: We love a needle, you know, vaccines. 00:09:42 Speaker 4: In your face, but it like kills the fat cells and like just makes it disappear. 00:09:51 Speaker 2: But in order to do that, it bloats. You get like a wattle, like a like a girl. 00:09:59 Speaker 4: God, so you balloon before you shrink and it lasts like five. 00:10:04 Speaker 2: To six weeks. And we can't risk that. You risky? 00:10:08 Speaker 3: You know that is that is a gamble that I don't know that i'd be willing to take. 00:10:14 Speaker 2: No. No, I want to talk to your doctor. 00:10:16 Speaker 3: I want to see your I feel like maybe I don't know who you're saying, but I don't. I feel like your safety is in jeopardy. 00:10:24 Speaker 4: You. I love watching videos of people doing it, like on the internet. 00:10:28 Speaker 2: Because they'll show their process. Talking is great for that. 00:10:35 Speaker 3: Now back to micro needling, because I am curious about this. Is there like any level of pain? 00:10:40 Speaker 4: Yes, yes there's pain, but that's how you know it's working, right, right, I'm not trying to get something done and not feel any pain. 00:10:49 Speaker 2: No pain, no game. 00:10:50 Speaker 3: You're not looking for a face massage. 00:10:52 Speaker 4: No, right, that's a different experience. We're getting a medical procedure, you know, ly unnecessary. 00:11:05 Speaker 3: Is it something you do like once a month or is it like a permanent thing? 00:11:09 Speaker 2: It's like a once a month. 00:11:10 Speaker 3: Oh my god, you really just have you know, you're going for it, And I admire that. 00:11:16 Speaker 2: Thank you. Yeah, she's got a face for TV she wants to keep. Of course you've got to keep it up. 00:11:22 Speaker 3: But oh oh, it's stressing me out. 00:11:26 Speaker 2: Maybe it's no worse than the dental work. 00:11:29 Speaker 3: Right, I think it's like recent trauma that I'm like reliving over and over while we're talking about this. But I'm having some real physical reactions to this micro needly, Now, what is the thing with the eyebrows? What do we call that? 00:11:41 Speaker 2: The micro microblading? Micro blading? What does that? 00:11:46 Speaker 3: Iose used to the listener that this is a dental and face thing podcast. 00:11:52 Speaker 2: Now I don't care. Go on, Daniel, I love that noe. So micro blading is basically. 00:11:57 Speaker 4: A face tattoo, but it's on your eyebrows, so it's meant to make your eyebrows look like permanently shaped. Okay, And like I am interested in MicroB lading. I am, but like, here's the thing. I have dark skin, I have melanin a keloid, so I'm concerned about the scarring issue. 00:12:19 Speaker 2: Of course totally. But I also have full eyebrows. So you have beautiful eyebrows, thank you. It's just a matter of the shape. 00:12:27 Speaker 4: So I've been told by some people like, oh, you should do it, and then I've been told by other people, know, you shouldn't do it. 00:12:32 Speaker 2: So I don't know. 00:12:32 Speaker 3: It's just I feel like, you know, like someone like me whose eyebrows are almost invisible, maybe I look into brows, but no, no, no, you have like nice defined eyebrows, like if yours were like middling eyebrows. 00:12:45 Speaker 2: But daniell look into it. Go. I mean, at least consider it. But I feel like, why bother. There's going to be another. 00:12:52 Speaker 3: Crazy thing you can get done that's more worth your time. I'm sure the dermatology industry is up to some new. 00:12:59 Speaker 2: Yeah things, they're up to things. 00:13:03 Speaker 4: I know. 00:13:04 Speaker 2: I'm like, I mean, the thing is I'm glad that I do like my face. 00:13:08 Speaker 4: I don't have like body dysmorphular I'm like, I want to change everything. It's I I do like my face and the way it looks. But I do I just have gotten into like skincare and like just lotions and potions and serums, and like, sure, what what do we do? 00:13:25 Speaker 3: Well? 00:13:26 Speaker 2: You want to maintains. You want to maintain. We want to maintain. 00:13:29 Speaker 4: And that's the thing, like I didn't I started using. 00:13:32 Speaker 2: Retinal in the pandemic retinal. Why do I know the word retinal? You know what? You know what retinal? 00:13:38 Speaker 3: I literally this is I'm you're revealing something about myself here, But remind. 00:13:45 Speaker 4: Me, retinal keeps you youthful. It's like a topical exfoliator. 00:13:50 Speaker 2: Oh so, like you know how like we used to exfoliate by like scrubbing our faces. 00:13:55 Speaker 1: Bad. 00:13:56 Speaker 2: That's very bad for the skin. 00:13:58 Speaker 4: You want to exfoliate by like putting like lotions onacause it has acid that like peels like the dead skin. 00:14:08 Speaker 2: And then like it's it reveals a brightness now redinall. 00:14:14 Speaker 3: It does sound to me like something you would use to like an old timey poison or something. 00:14:18 Speaker 2: Is that again, how you know it's working? I'm sounding the more effected. So is it like a like a thin serum or is it like a thick like cream it's like it's like a mixture of both. It's not like super thin. 00:14:37 Speaker 4: It's not watery, but it's not like, uh, like a rich cream. 00:14:42 Speaker 3: Okay, I'm glad to have just asked you here for a free consultation. 00:14:46 Speaker 2: Yeah. 00:14:46 Speaker 4: I love that you can see doctor Uri and Pasadena. 00:14:54 Speaker 3: I have a dermatologist, thank you, and I'm barely satisfied with their service. 00:14:58 Speaker 2: So we'll see what that's about. Retinet to it. 00:15:03 Speaker 4: You have to wear sunscreen, though, I was like frustrating. I bought Advisor. I bought one of those you know, those like paparazzi visors. Was really like a obnoxious to cover your whole thing. 00:15:14 Speaker 3: Oh of course, the kind of like Judge dread like robo cop type things. I like. 00:15:21 Speaker 4: I bought one because I was like, oh, I feel like every time I put on sunscreen, it just like looks white and streaky, and then like. 00:15:29 Speaker 2: This feels weird. 00:15:30 Speaker 4: So I just got a visor, and I like drive in my visor and I would forget, like I would look at people and realize and then I forget that they can't see me. I can see them, and I'm like, why are they giving me that weird look? It's like maybe because you're literally a person in a wheelchair wearing a giant visor and they can't see your face. 00:15:51 Speaker 3: Yeah, every time I see somebody in one of those, I just think that's a cyborg. And but they're also always like, uh, in a like a jogging suit or something. 00:15:59 Speaker 2: So it's a real weird mix of worlds, a mix of high and low. Right, it's a total high low. 00:16:06 Speaker 3: Well, look, you know you mentioned this fire pit earlier that you're kind of neglecting in particular ways and your front yard, this kind of thing. I wasn't going to say anything, but I was in your neighborhood yesterday and I did. I did see the fire pit and it was very clean, which no surprise there, there's no marshmallow melting into it. But you know, while I was inspecting your fire pit, I noticed on your porch there was this delightful little gift bag, let's call it a gift bag, kind of a gold shimmering thing, really beautiful, And so I thought, okay, I'm going to put this in the car. I'm going to drive home and I'll figure I'll put that problem aside and figure out what's happening there later. And then it occurred to me that you were going to be on the podcast today, and I thought, okay, Danielle has received the emails. She knows the title of the podcast, it's called I said, no gifts. Maybe she I don't know. I don't know what's going through her mind, and I'm not going to assume anything. I thought, I'll just approach her as gingerly as possible on the podcast and try to get some answers. Danielle, is this a gift for me? 00:17:22 Speaker 2: It is? It is a gift for you. 00:17:24 Speaker 3: Okay, Okay, that's fine. Should I open it here. 00:17:29 Speaker 2: On the podcast? Yes? Oh I would love that. Okay. 00:17:37 Speaker 3: So, as I described earlier, I love this. You know, it's a like a little gold bag. Did you wrap this yourself? 00:17:46 Speaker 2: I did? It looks like a professional job, thank you. 00:17:50 Speaker 3: I mean, I will say this looks almost like a little Teddy bear. 00:17:54 Speaker 2: Could be holding it, if that makes any sense, Just like a perfect little package. 00:18:00 Speaker 3: It's got this black tissue with stars in it. Let's open it up. Let's see what's happening here. Yeah, open Let's get some nice sprinklet by the mic. This kind of an audio the light. Oh so, now trying to figure out how best to open this, because it's. 00:18:20 Speaker 2: You wrap this really well. 00:18:22 Speaker 3: Anytime somebody wraps something well, I just think what's wrong with me that I'm not able to do this? 00:18:28 Speaker 2: No, this is too much time. 00:18:33 Speaker 3: Okay, I'm opening Oh it's so perfectly wrapped. Okay, I'm opening up. 00:18:38 Speaker 2: Wait, wait, this kind of goes bad. She's got a brand, Daniel is. 00:18:47 Speaker 3: Fully rebranded during the pandemic to be Let's just say it a moisturizing skincare specialist, because I've opened it. It's this beautiful little purple lavender box and it's a How do I pronounce this lanage lenage? Should I have known how to say that? 00:19:05 Speaker 2: I don't know if I'm even saying it right. 00:19:09 Speaker 3: L A n E I g E linage leneage. There's so many ways you could, but I feel like Linage is the safe bed here. It's a sleep sleeping mask. Yes, Wait, so is this something you put on before bet and then just fall asleep for eight to twelve hours. 00:19:29 Speaker 2: Yes, it's a sleep mask. 00:19:31 Speaker 4: It's ultra hydrating because water is hydrating and skin to retain water. 00:19:39 Speaker 2: It is my favorite sleep mask, is my favorite thing in the world. 00:19:43 Speaker 3: So is it something that you like get wet and then slap on your face. 00:19:47 Speaker 2: No, you know, you wash your face. You do all your storms. 00:19:50 Speaker 4: Your toner's your loginder potions, and that's the very last thing you put on to just kind of like hydrate the skin, penetrate it and like. 00:19:59 Speaker 2: Just see it all in. Wow. 00:20:02 Speaker 4: And it has like this beautiful lavender scent that just feels like like a spa, just like enough, not too much, you know where you're like and everything is like lavender. 00:20:10 Speaker 2: It's just like a nice little inhale of lavender. And then that's it. 00:20:14 Speaker 3: This sounds lovely. And now is it something you use over and over again? It feels pretty heavy. 00:20:20 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's it's you can open it open, I'm gon open it up. Yeah, let's see what's happening here. Okay, Oh it's a nice a nice. 00:20:28 Speaker 3: This is like I've only ever seen these masks where it's like, you know, almost like a sheet, gummy bag or something. Yeah, right, this is like this is truly fancy. This is like a little candle or something. Yeah, it's like a little jar that you open and then what happens in here? 00:20:45 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's this is so beyond right. 00:20:51 Speaker 3: Now you get Okay, this is starting to make sense. So it's not like one of those things. It's like almost like a lotion. 00:20:57 Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, and it has a little scooper so that you don't put your fingers in it and get it all grimy. 00:21:03 Speaker 3: Fill it with bacteria a Petri dish. Okay, this is now, I'm see this goes. This really shows my real lack of knowledge about any of this, where I was like I just could not conceptualize anything beyond a like halloween mask or you know, like a mask you buy it like the. 00:21:22 Speaker 4: Uh, like a a shining mask. 00:21:29 Speaker 2: Like a silence of you're the that's what I got you for skin. 00:21:37 Speaker 3: Carrot's great, I will say, Hannibal Lecter perfect skin. 00:21:42 Speaker 2: Amazing. 00:21:42 Speaker 3: I mean the man's skin is flawless. So I mean whatever. The community is obviously got a diet that's kind of difficult for most people to achieve, but this is a little something different. So how much of this am I going to be putting on? 00:21:57 Speaker 2: Like not too much, just like. 00:21:58 Speaker 4: A little scoop like maybe like a you know, a hearty. 00:22:03 Speaker 2: Dime go I like a hearty dove, a heaping dime fall. 00:22:10 Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, and then you just do you rub it in or just leave. 00:22:14 Speaker 4: It you so you scoop it, you put in your hand, you kind of rub your hand like lightly a little bit, and then you just kind of like pat it on and smooth it on, like don't like rub it in. 00:22:23 Speaker 2: Hard, but just kind of like it's so you'll feel the texture. 00:22:27 Speaker 4: It's very kind of like gel like almost, you know, so you just can kind of like glide it on and then it absorbs very quickly. 00:22:35 Speaker 2: Yeah, now how did this? 00:22:36 Speaker 3: Like? I'm always curious because I feel like people with who know about skincare this sort of thing. They just happen to have this giant wealth of knowledge. I'm wondering where this information comes for you. 00:22:47 Speaker 2: It comes from having terrible skin. 00:22:50 Speaker 4: It comes from having awful skin, having acne as a teen, scarred as an adult, and obsessively looking for the one thing that will fix it all. 00:23:02 Speaker 2: You know. 00:23:06 Speaker 3: So, is it like you go to the dermatologists and you're like tell me what to do? Or is it like I go on YouTube and look for an influencer to guide me. 00:23:14 Speaker 2: What's the situation? Is it mostly derma? 00:23:16 Speaker 4: It's well, now I'm going to the dermatologists because now I realize I should have been doing that all along, right, Yeah, But I mean before it was you know, reading cosmoll you know, in style and trying to figure out a lore, like what do I do Aora? And just being getting every sample. 00:23:38 Speaker 2: Yeah, like it's Sephora. 00:23:42 Speaker 3: It's so overwhelming, and it's like there are so many different things and these these employees. I'm sorry, I bless all of them, but these are people who are like I could check out of here at any moment. 00:23:52 Speaker 2: I don't care about I'm a retail employee. 00:23:54 Speaker 3: I've been a retail employee before, and I was just happy to lie to customer. 00:24:00 Speaker 4: Being a Sephora employee, I. 00:24:03 Speaker 3: Was just like, what, what can get you to the cash register so I can go on my fifteen minute break? That was my goal at a retail store. So when you go into Sephora, it really feels like you're risking at all. Yes, yes, I mean have you gotten any good results from a Sephora. 00:24:20 Speaker 2: I mean, honestly, this is this is a Sephora. Sephora. Oh this is a well okay. 00:24:27 Speaker 4: Sephora started doing this thing where they would for ten dollars a month, you would get like five, like really big samples like a okay, an oversized sample of like products are really excited about, and I got a sample of that, and then I kind of looked it up and saw it had a cult following and people really like just love this water mask. 00:24:50 Speaker 2: And then I was like, Okay, well, I guess I guess I keep the water mask. I keep coming back. That wasn't like an employee, you know. That was the. 00:25:01 Speaker 4: Employee interactions to thee Flora. That's that's too much. I'm okay that behind. 00:25:09 Speaker 3: Now let me ask you. You might have an answer to this. Sephora and Alta two separate, but I assume kind of the same level of places. What would you say is the difference between these two retail. 00:25:21 Speaker 4: I've never been inside an Alta, Okay, you only ever shop there online? 00:25:25 Speaker 2: In the pandemic. Oh interesting, I don't know where to go where to find an Altar? 00:25:30 Speaker 3: I mean now that I say Alta, and which one have I been? 00:25:34 Speaker 2: Yeah, I assume. 00:25:36 Speaker 3: I've been in a Sephora because I think Sephora is the one at the America. Okay, so I have been in a Sphora. But how do I know what an Alta even is? That's a good question for everyone, but I must have been in one or driven past one at some point, and uh, yeah, I'm curious to know. Is it a you know, like a Burger King MacDonald's situation. 00:26:00 Speaker 4: I think it's more of a like Shock in the Box McDonald's situation, honest. 00:26:06 Speaker 3: And you know when you say that, what do you mean? Because I feel like Burger King McDonald's Jack in the Box are different for everyone. 00:26:15 Speaker 4: Yeah, I feel like Shock in the Box is it's doing a lot. 00:26:21 Speaker 2: She's she's constantly trying to like she is doing it. She's really trying to do it. 00:26:26 Speaker 4: I was just trying to give you every new, everything that's new. 00:26:31 Speaker 3: The desperation is so clear at Jack in the Box. 00:26:36 Speaker 4: She's like, but what if we take the nacho cheese and put it on top instead of inside? You know, like, let's remix it. 00:26:47 Speaker 2: What can I do to make you happy? 00:26:50 Speaker 4: And McDonald's is like, this is what it is, and this is what it's been, and this is why you come here. 00:26:56 Speaker 3: So in this analogy, is McDonald's. 00:27:01 Speaker 2: Sephora McDonald's a cephora, okay, and Alta is Jack in the Box. That's what I feel. 00:27:06 Speaker 3: Yeah, Alta, I feel like you've just been put on notice and by somebody who, at least in this scenario, out of the two people, knows a lot more about skincare than me. 00:27:17 Speaker 4: Things from Alta, I mean I bought things from there in the pandemic. 00:27:21 Speaker 2: Well, I've eaten something from Jack in the Box. You now look at us. 00:27:25 Speaker 3: Yeah, but you go with what they know. You know, I'm not going to Jack in the Box for a taco casse role. 00:27:31 Speaker 2: I'm going there for a hamburger. 00:27:32 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm not getting there like deep fried ice cream cone. I'm getting the hamburger. Although, let's be honest, they did have their do you remember when they had the E Coli outbreak? 00:27:43 Speaker 2: Wait, Jack in the Box specifically. 00:27:46 Speaker 3: Yes, I mean I don't want to dig up you know, you know their past, but it was the mid nineties and they gave a bunch of people a cola. 00:27:54 Speaker 4: I know I probably wasn't eating there in the mid nineties. My parents were very firmly against fast food. Oh god in an adult an adult indulgence for. 00:28:04 Speaker 3: Me, Well, I'm excited to try this. I My skincare routine is very basic. It's just a veno and that's it, which I have. I've had listeners reach out like and say like dermatologist, skincare people and say do what works for you, which is good, but I feel like why not build on it? It works and I'm not doing anything special at night, I'm aging. I feel like it's time to start really. 00:28:34 Speaker 4: As you ask your doctor about a retinal and then use that and use the linache sleep mask. 00:28:40 Speaker 3: Yeah, dermatology for me is one of these what it's like this strange thing between medicine and. 00:28:47 Speaker 2: Like hil salesman. I don't want to go that. 00:28:52 Speaker 3: Far, but you know, cosmetics, So it's like a lot of it's not entirely necessary, but feels kind of It's like this. 00:28:59 Speaker 2: Is kind of a meta. 00:29:00 Speaker 4: It's kind of I mean, you know, you work in the industry. You gotta maintain, you gotta met it off. Look, once I. 00:29:08 Speaker 2: Found out I could write off going to the dermatologists, I was like, I'm in. Yeah, I wasn't from I'm always yeah, what, Yes, it's not. 00:29:18 Speaker 3: Off a haircut, Yes, I need a better at tax person. Have you gotten your haircut since the pandemic? 00:29:27 Speaker 2: I have? I have, Oh my god. 00:29:30 Speaker 4: You haircuts in the pandemic. I think I need to get another one. Soon getting the haircut was a little scary, was it really? 00:29:38 Speaker 1: Well? 00:29:38 Speaker 2: I just I wasn't vaccinated. 00:29:40 Speaker 4: The first time I got a haircut, and it was that time that like things had opened. It was like kind of right before the like second wave, you know, sure, And I just was really kind of freaked out. 00:29:52 Speaker 2: The whole time. Oh, of course. And was an indoor outdoor indoor. Oh that's pretty scary. 00:29:58 Speaker 4: Yeah, but now that I'm fully voxed, when I went to get my second haircut, I fell a lot more comfortable. 00:30:06 Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, beautiful. And was your second one also indoor? 00:30:10 Speaker 2: Yes? 00:30:11 Speaker 3: I had a friend who just was telling me he got a like a backyard haircut by a professional, but they had no mirror, so he had to keep running out to his car to look in his rear view mirror at the haircut, which to me makes I mean, there's just a lot of things happening there that I don't know that I'm like. 00:30:29 Speaker 4: I feel like you should just trust the person who's cutting your hair outside at that I mean, you're literally out you're doing it, you know. 00:30:42 Speaker 3: The moment the professional haircutter reveals they don't have a mirror, I think you're just like Okay, well this is going to be what it is. Yeah, it seemed you just have to move on. 00:30:50 Speaker 2: With my life. Yeah, yeah, it's been. I think it's just been. 00:30:53 Speaker 3: And I think we're enough very forgiving period for haircuts right now. Everyone's just like, look, we've been through it. You just have to get a cut. How you can get it cut. We all have various people in our lives that are not professionals cutting our hair, and we're dealing with it. 00:31:09 Speaker 4: We're doing I mean, well my hair, my hair is naturally curly, and so I just let it be curly in the whole pandemic and was like, I guess this is what we're doing. But so, yeah, I just learned how to do my curly hair. I know my hair is straight right now. 00:31:25 Speaker 2: I literally got vaccinated and immediately ran to get a blowout. Horrible. 00:31:31 Speaker 4: My friends are like to know, how we work so hard to teach you how to do your natural, beautiful curly hair and you can just run right back, right back to the impressor get it all straightened out. 00:31:45 Speaker 3: Like speaking as a lazy person, I just feel like not like not getting it straightened would be my move. My hair is this weird thing. That's like half curly half straight, and I wish you would just pick one way, one pick a leg. 00:31:58 Speaker 2: But it's so cute. I love you have like a nice like little curl. It's got body, it looks I can't count it. Oh it's this today, but tomorrow, you know, see a disaster. So I don't know. 00:32:14 Speaker 4: But curly hair, natural curly hair is like a lot to maintain for it to like look nice because I have a lot, Like you know. 00:32:21 Speaker 2: This is my hair straight is pretty long. I just took my hair thick. It's like really thick. 00:32:29 Speaker 3: Wow. 00:32:29 Speaker 2: It curly was like wow, it was like a whole. 00:32:34 Speaker 4: Like Michelle Ducho's status, like big curly hair, you know, which looks great. 00:32:40 Speaker 2: But the maintaining of it, yeah, it's just got to. 00:32:45 Speaker 4: Sleep and like you have to put your hair up and sleeping up bonnet and like not your neck because then you rustle it up and then static ruins the curls and it's a whole. 00:32:54 Speaker 2: It's a lot. 00:32:55 Speaker 3: I imagine. Showering is just a constant issue. Shower caps. Do you wear caps? 00:33:00 Speaker 2: I do wear shower caps. I got a usable shower cap. I like a shower cap. I could I think I should get into the shower cap. Yeah, it's fun. 00:33:10 Speaker 3: I like to wear a hat in the shower. 00:33:11 Speaker 2: Why not just up for your shower we're not doing I want a shower scarf. That's my move. 00:33:21 Speaker 3: I'm gonna just keep my shoulders nice and dry for every shower again, listener, that's my idea. I've just come up with it. If anyone steals it, you know, CN Court. 00:33:36 Speaker 2: Danielle. Okay, this is beautiful. I'm now on. 00:33:38 Speaker 3: I feel like this is going to be a slippery slope where I'm now spending thousands of dollars every month on some sort of skincare. Yeah, I can write it off and I'll get results. So those are the two most important things to me, writing off and getting results. And if we can do that, I feel like we should play a game. 00:33:57 Speaker 2: Oh I love I love games. 00:33:59 Speaker 3: I'm going to get give you a choice. We have a game called Gift Master. We also have a game called Gift or a Curse? Which would you and I'll tell you what they are after you just have to pick title alone. 00:34:09 Speaker 2: I want the Cursed one. Okay. 00:34:12 Speaker 3: I have to do some calculating here, so I need a number between one and ten seven Okay, very very popular number. Listeners have indicated that a huge amount of my guests pick the number seven. There's nothing wrong with that. It's just a popular number. And I don't blame I mean, it's a lucky number seven. That aside, I have to go calculate. So in the meantime, you've got the microphone. You can promote something, you can recommend something, you can tell people another skincare technique. 00:34:37 Speaker 2: It doesn't matter. I'll be right back. Oh I love this, Okay, I just should be plugging that. 00:34:45 Speaker 4: I am going to be in season two of Special on Netflix, which premierees on May twentieth. But there's a woman who does extraction videos on YouTube called Lisa Brown, and I'm obsessed with her YouTube channel. She uses the cute tip method to extract black heads from people's faces, and it's everything your face. 00:35:17 Speaker 2: You are horrified. You're You're like, this girl does not understand anything about self promotion. 00:35:26 Speaker 3: You did self promotion for two seconds and then we're onto removing blacks. Look, I have no Look, I have no problem with that. 00:35:36 Speaker 2: You. 00:35:36 Speaker 3: I think that's actually very tasteful. You've got a pinch of self promotion and then you just got into something you're excited about. I think there's I think that's great. Actually, you get self promotion, I think is so painful. It's a very difficult thing to do. 00:35:48 Speaker 2: It is, it feels, it feels awkward. But I am excited to be on Season two special. 00:35:53 Speaker 3: I know. Yeah, that's a great I mean, that's fantastic, and everybody should watch it and also look you up on the internet. Obviously you're stay ups all over the internet. Just look into Danielle. I mean, I like to do a little promotion for the guest here because you did so much wonderful promotion for whoever this person is removing black kids. But everybody knows how to use the internet at this point. Just go and google Danielle and find her on Instagram, Twitter, this kind of thing. 00:36:21 Speaker 2: Let's put all of that aside. Danielle. 00:36:23 Speaker 3: It's time to play Gift or a curse. This is how it works. I'm going to name three things. You're going to tell me if there're a gift or a curse and why. And I just want you to know that there are correct answers here. You can fail this game big time, or you can win big time. Very few people have won what do I sparse? You win my respect. When the listeners respect, you get to just have that special, warm feeling of knowing I did it. And is there anything more valuable than being able to say I did it. 00:36:55 Speaker 2: No, it's the high it's the greatest honor, it's the greatest sect. 00:37:01 Speaker 3: Okay, let's start the first one. This was a recent recent listener suggestion that I thought was an excellent suggestion from someone named Saren s e r e n suren Saren hard to say, but the suggestion is, gift her a curse gentle reminders. So you know, like when someone will email you and say, gentle reminder, gift her a curse. 00:37:29 Speaker 4: As someone who requires a lot of gentle reminders, it is a gift, I will say, it is aft. 00:37:39 Speaker 2: For the gentle reminder. 00:37:46 Speaker 3: Okay, well, I think that's a nice, a nice tight explanation there for your answer, which is wrong, Oh, gentle reminders are absolutely a curse. 00:37:57 Speaker 2: Are you kidding me? This? 00:37:59 Speaker 3: And this is what I'm going to say. I don't mind a reminder. I think a reminder is a fantastic thing. We all need a reminder now and again, tacking the gentile on there does not help the situation in any way. I almost feel like it makes it worse because it makes me feel like I'm this dragon that you're like slowly approaching to remind me, just say, hey, just a reminder you forgot. Come at me, blunt, give it to me straight. I don't need to be babied. I don't need the soft gloves of a gentle reminder because it's such a passive aggressive circling back. I mean, circling back is a whole other thing which I've probably guilty of. I hope I'm not guilty of using a circling back, but you never know. But a gentle reminder, what are we talking about here? 00:38:47 Speaker 2: This is true? Okay, now, I mean. 00:38:52 Speaker 4: The passive aggressiveness of the gentle reminder is pretty obnoxious. 00:38:58 Speaker 2: But I now what it is. 00:39:02 Speaker 4: I like that people are fearful enough be gentle about it. 00:39:10 Speaker 2: I mean I can. 00:39:10 Speaker 3: I mean, I'm definitely not giving you the point here, but I do. I do like that aspect of being like, wow, I'm feared, I strike fear into the hearts of whoever is. 00:39:22 Speaker 2: Gently reminding me. That. 00:39:24 Speaker 3: All said, Sarah, and thank you for that suggestion, because I think that this is something that needed to be addressed, and gentle reminders are a curse. Moving on, and this is where I struggle trying to find the next one. Oh, here we go. Another listener suggestion, someone named Natalie has suggested gift or a curse. Second cousins, not first cousins, second cousins curse and why. 00:39:51 Speaker 4: That's just like another group of the population. I can't fuck because they're technically related to me, but I also don't know them, like they weren't at any of like my holiday gatherings or in family photos. 00:40:05 Speaker 2: So it's rude. 00:40:10 Speaker 3: Danielle, You're back on track. I absolutely think what is a second cousin? It's just so that person is a stranger to me. Yes, I couldn't tell you one second cousin. 00:40:25 Speaker 4: I'm Dominican, literally, like whole communities are second cousins. 00:40:30 Speaker 2: I can't refuse. 00:40:34 Speaker 3: Well, I literally, and this is just maybe ignorance on my part. I'm trying to figure out a second cousin. Is that your oh like grandma's brother's kid. 00:40:47 Speaker 2: Is that how that works? I truly don't know. Again, I refuse to engage with that. 00:40:52 Speaker 4: I don't know, and I won't hear anything of it. Someone who shows up and says, give me money. We're technically related, as you're really stretching technically. 00:41:08 Speaker 3: I mean, I have a hard enough time with first cousins. Yeah, a second cousin, it's just truly just some sort of legal web. I'm trapped in with someone that I don't know from the person who served me. 00:41:21 Speaker 2: At Starbucks today. 00:41:24 Speaker 3: I mean, Onalise, I know you're listening or engineer on Aalise, I want you to tell me, through chat or a video what a second cousin is, because I'm humiliated that I don't even know the actual definition of a second cousin. 00:41:39 Speaker 2: I love that this is a learning podcast. 00:41:42 Speaker 3: Yes, I do like to send listeners away with some level of I mean, listeners are probably screaming right now the definition, you idiot. It's everyone knows what a second comp is, a second consonation. 00:41:53 Speaker 2: You know what this reminds me of? 00:41:55 Speaker 4: You know that clip of Isaac Miserahi on QBC and he's showing. 00:42:01 Speaker 2: Yes, Isaac Musurahi has like a whole line. 00:42:04 Speaker 4: On QVC and he was like showing some sort of calfcan that had like a really like a real intergalactic type of print, really splattered it was like green, and he was talking about how like it looked like the universe, and he was like, well, you know, we have many moons and this is like, oh, a picture of our solar system and all are the Earth's moons. And they were like the post was like does the Earth have multiple moons? 00:42:31 Speaker 2: He's like, yes, yes it does, and she's like yes it does. 00:42:34 Speaker 4: It's such an insane, mind blowing clip. It is perfection, just with a certainty and authority. It's like, yes, it earned us hundreds of moons. And by my calfcan that looks vaguely like a picture of outer space looks nothing like out of space. 00:42:52 Speaker 2: He just didn't need to say anything. You don't need to say anything. 00:42:54 Speaker 4: It looked like a child just like threw a bunch of paint at a wall. 00:43:00 Speaker 3: I mean, I admire that optimism of just like really imagining the best Earth possible, just absolutely surrounded by a swarm of moons. 00:43:10 Speaker 2: But that's okay. 00:43:12 Speaker 3: We're getting an indication here, we're getting a definition from on elis. A second cousin is someone who shares a great grandparent with you. And then she's telling me there's a website with a cousin calculator. So that's something for people to look up, find out what your second cousin is. That kind of thing someone who shares a great grandparent with me. Well that I mean, it just means so little. I mean, yeah, you know, second cousins. We've got to do away with anything beyond first cousin. That's just another person in the world. Okay, so you've got one out of two so far, and so now you have a chance to get another point another listener suggestion. People are suggesting NonStop, and it's really wonderful. It makes my life so much easier. Oh and I'm going to also just tell listeners right now, go on Instagram post something to your stories. I'll repost it to Instagram as a gift or a curse, and everybody gets to vote. 00:44:07 Speaker 2: On that's all. We love audio action, we love. 00:44:11 Speaker 3: Audience interaction, and people get really fired up about those polls, and I just have to deal with the front of it. That's okay. What's important right now is that Danielle needs to answer gift your a curse from listener Sean cold Brew Cold Brew Coffee. What do you think gift you a curse? 00:44:30 Speaker 2: I mean it really, it depends on the circumstance. Okay, as you're sippier, Oh. 00:44:43 Speaker 4: You know. I mean it occurs for those of us who have to like experience and interact with people who have just had it. 00:44:51 Speaker 2: But it is if I. 00:44:53 Speaker 3: Will kick you off this podcast right now, I will shut down to the audio, we will burn the tapes. 00:45:00 Speaker 2: But is it a true gift to those of us who need it to function. 00:45:05 Speaker 4: Because it is legal and is less expensive than other substances. 00:45:13 Speaker 3: Okay, well I need an answer though. This is just you trying to escape unscathed, and I'm not letting it happen. 00:45:18 Speaker 2: Gift or a curse? 00:45:20 Speaker 3: You know? 00:45:21 Speaker 2: Cold brew? Cold Brew's a gift. It's a gift. 00:45:24 Speaker 3: It's a gift, Danielle. I'm so glad to see you land the plane here. I absolutely think cold. 00:45:31 Speaker 2: Brew is a gift. 00:45:32 Speaker 3: I mean, look, can it be a curse? Absolutely? There were about six weeks ago there was a I made a real obvious mistake. I drink I believe forty eight ounces of cold brew in less than twelve hours, and I genuinely think it rearranged my DNA because I felt out of my mind. Or probably two weeks after I was a fully different person. I'm only now slowly becoming one who I once was. 00:46:03 Speaker 2: So you have to be careful with cold yes, yes you do. 00:46:07 Speaker 4: Gentle you have to be gentle with cold breo gentle reminder. 00:46:11 Speaker 2: Just sip your cold brew. 00:46:14 Speaker 4: How to paste that works for you. 00:46:23 Speaker 3: I can't remember what the circumstances were that led me to that choice, but I can tell everyone, do not do that under any in any situation. If you're drinking forty eight ounces of this drink, you will become deranged. That said, I will say, cold brew. Is it tastes better than iced coffee? It has way more caffeine. There's a there are few downsides, and those they are extremely dangerous and horrible. But I think overall we're dealing with a gift here. And so Danielle two out of three, you know, you started off horribly, really failed the first one. 00:47:02 Speaker 2: I love that you're giving me a gentle reminder that I failed at first. 00:47:08 Speaker 3: I would say, it's just a beautiful echo from your recent past. 00:47:12 Speaker 2: That's how I would describe that. 00:47:14 Speaker 3: Okay, we're moving on. Danielle has done a sixty six percent job on gift or a curse. That's not you know whatever, We have to answer some listener questions. This is called I said no emails. People write into I said no gifts at gmail dot com. Every one of them. You know they've hit rock bottom. They need answers. Would you help me answer some question? 00:47:34 Speaker 2: Would love to I would love to help. 00:47:35 Speaker 3: Okay, let's see here. This first one says high bridger and disrespectful guest, indicating you My brother in law, Victor works for a mattress company and is getting us a high end mattress for our guest room at about a quarter of the normal price. 00:47:52 Speaker 2: I'm very jealous. That's me. Editor, realize it here you personally tell. 00:47:56 Speaker 3: You, yes, I want to get him a thank you gift, but I'm not sure what says thank you for saving us a bunch of money. He's in his early forties. He's very tidy and fastidious, enjoys house projects, likes rap and streetwear, adorses dog Scout cute name for a dog, and has a major sweet tooth. Your sage advice would be greatly appreciated. And that's from Sarah Jane in Chicago. 00:48:19 Speaker 2: Wow. Okay. Sarah Jane writes in to brag. 00:48:23 Speaker 3: About her affordable high end mattress that we can all get right because she's. 00:48:27 Speaker 2: Got Sarah Jane light filled with problems. 00:48:34 Speaker 3: Sleeping well, and and this is for her guest bedroom. This isn't even her she's sleep I mean, who knows what she's sleeping on in the master bedroom? Give me a break, okay, I mean. 00:48:46 Speaker 4: Over that means we're allowed to sleep in the guest bedroom. 00:48:48 Speaker 2: That's I think a fair. 00:48:50 Speaker 3: Trade anyone, anyone needs a free night in Chicago. I know Sarah Jane, she's got a guest bedroom for you with You're not gonna be sleeping on like a futon. You're sleeping on a high end mattress. So but what does she get this brother in law, Victor, who's so kindly given the discount. 00:49:08 Speaker 2: Wow, well, we have a lot of info on Victor. 00:49:11 Speaker 4: Victor honestly sounds like do you know the Josh Gondleman. 00:49:17 Speaker 2: Of course, she's like. 00:49:19 Speaker 4: He's really tidy and he has a dog and he likes streetwear. 00:49:23 Speaker 2: And I'm like, is her cousin, Josh? 00:49:26 Speaker 3: God, I know this is what's happening. Josh Gondleman writes in under this his pen name is Sarah Jane and he's created this hypothetical to get himself a gift. That's the only solution to this and likes rap. 00:49:43 Speaker 4: I mean it's like fully no, right, I mean I think it depends on like how nice you want to be with I feel like you. 00:49:50 Speaker 2: Want to get him a really nice gift. 00:49:51 Speaker 4: So is there are they like a sneaker head, Like could you get them like a very cool pair of sneakers. 00:50:00 Speaker 2: That's not a bad idea. I feel like it's a thoughtful gift. 00:50:03 Speaker 3: Right, And like cool sneakers can be hard to get, so like going out of your way to like, oh, we're standing in line, we're spending more money on eBay this kind of. 00:50:13 Speaker 4: Yeah, but I feel like you can get like a cool pair of sneakers that is like you know, you're spending money, but not more money than you're saved on the mattress. But right, because you know, a nice bottle of bourbon's been done, right, I mean. 00:50:29 Speaker 3: The bourbon is like for your real estate age for something. Yeah, it's like the brother in law that you have all this information on. You don't want to waste this opportunity. Do they make little like sneakers for dogs? 00:50:40 Speaker 2: Oh? They do. You could totally get the dog sneakers, the dog something cute. 00:50:44 Speaker 4: Like a cute little like supreme jacket for the dog completely. 00:50:49 Speaker 2: I think that's a great idea. 00:50:50 Speaker 3: A nice little like rain jacket that is like actually stylish, and some sneakers to match. 00:50:55 Speaker 2: You get the dog an outfit. 00:50:57 Speaker 4: Yeah, you got him something that like he might not a gat for himself, you know, like that he would very much enjoy. 00:51:05 Speaker 3: Right, And I feel like a dog a full dog outfit is right up that alley where it's like, you know, you might buy the dog a novelty sweater during Halloween or whatever, but you know it's May or June and suddenly the dog has a nice outfit that's coming out of the blue. 00:51:22 Speaker 2: Get that dog of fit. Yeah, yes, yes, let that dog be dripping. 00:51:27 Speaker 1: I love that. 00:51:29 Speaker 3: Sarah Jane, you have your answer the major sweet tooth. You can throw in like some nice cookies or something. Bake him something, bake him a cake, give it with a I mean we're going overboard. 00:51:39 Speaker 2: Let's be honest. 00:51:40 Speaker 3: The guy got him an employee discount. Let's not go too far. But you can. 00:51:45 Speaker 4: Order some nice cookies or you can bake them yourself. 00:51:49 Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, if you are good at baking. 00:51:50 Speaker 3: But if you are not outsource that absolutely you must outsource if you don't have the skills. Okay, moving on, let's answer one more. I'm trying to be as good at answering questions as possible. This person says, deer bridger and lovely guest starts off a little differently. My weed dealer is expecting his first baby, and I know he's very excited to become a dad. What should I get him? I collect and restore vintage cast iron in my free time. 00:52:19 Speaker 2: Let's see. 00:52:19 Speaker 3: While I don't want to bestow ants, blah blah blah blah, let's see, I'm at a total loss for what would be an appropriate gesture for his growing family, aside from continuing to support his small business. Any help and judgment is welcome, seeing as it's simply more free content. 00:52:36 Speaker 2: Thank you. That's from a mysterious just the letter c stem. 00:52:41 Speaker 3: You know, I feel like I really muddled this letter here, But basically what we're looking for is the weed dealer is expecting about to become a dad, and this person, it seems their only thing in their life is vintage cast iron. 00:52:56 Speaker 2: So that's you know, that's. 00:52:57 Speaker 4: Interesting that's very specific. I feel like this is a close relationship. It's like, is your weed dealer Ben from High Maintenance, this is a character and he was like, this is a really intimate relationship with your weed dealer that you like want to get them a baby. 00:53:13 Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, it's. 00:53:15 Speaker 4: Like I want to know as little about my drug dealer as possible. 00:53:22 Speaker 2: Yeah. 00:53:23 Speaker 3: I uh, it sounds like this person does know as little as possible because we've got no detail about the weed dealer than the fact that they deal drugs and have a baby. 00:53:32 Speaker 2: What do you get a baby? 00:53:33 Speaker 4: I mean, I would get your hands on that the gift registry for the baby shower. I don't know how to dad, I don't know how much information you have on this wee dealer. I would try to get your hands on that because that is what they need. Like this is everyone wants to get the baby cu little gifts and like outfits and fun little toys. It's like, get them what they need, and that registry tells you what they need. 00:53:57 Speaker 2: Follow the registry. 00:54:01 Speaker 3: Unless the we dealer doesn't have a registry, you know, maybe they're keeping it under lock and key. I will say, don't get them anything weed related. 00:54:09 Speaker 2: The baby, doesn't. 00:54:10 Speaker 3: I feel like that's so tacky. Yeah, the first thought, don't do that, Get them a nice little like, look, how many things have I bought for a baby, I don't know. Get them some nice baby clothes or whatever this is happening on the registry. Find that and then find the nicest version of it. 00:54:26 Speaker 2: I would say. Yeah. 00:54:27 Speaker 4: I mean, also, it's like diapers. They're gonna use diapers eventually. 00:54:31 Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, I know it's not fun, but it's Yeah, when the baby comes out on a Lisha's saying good night, moon's always a welcome. 00:54:40 Speaker 2: And easy gay. Yeah. Yes, there are so many good children's books. I like The Hungry Caterpillar. I love appropriate because he is a weed dealer, and like that's perfect. It's like weed adjacent. You know, right, who wrote The Hungry Caterpillar? Was that Eric something. 00:55:00 Speaker 3: Got the illustrator, but right, that person had a weed dealer. 00:55:04 Speaker 2: Definitely, yes, Eric. 00:55:06 Speaker 3: Carl certainly had a weed dealer. And I feel like pass that along to baby. Yeah, we love that question answered. See, I mean to cast iron, you didn't need to bring that into a questions. 00:55:18 Speaker 2: Iron unless you're cooking a baby. And that's the opposite of what yes, you. 00:55:22 Speaker 3: Want to not doing that? Okay, we've answered. I mean the job we've done today answering questions is just as world class as possible. I mean, there's a chance we get hired by a gift giving company to answer more questions. You never know what's the dream when you do a job this well, you can only expect rewards.
