Speaker 1: Olivia is asking did anyone use vassaline for school yard frights?
Speaker 2: No, because I'm not that up. I didn't grow up
Speaker 2: around a bunch of women.
Speaker 1: Yeah, if you wanted to fight me, you were gonna
Speaker 1: fight me, Ashley the way.
Speaker 2: That plus you that dry ass face.
Speaker 1: I do remember that being a stereotype of women greasing
Speaker 1: their faces so that they wouldn't get cut. But no,
Speaker 1: I I never personally did that.
Speaker 2: That would be crazy up.
Speaker 3: The earrings put on the vassline so exactly they couldn't
Speaker 3: make contact.
Speaker 1: Yeah, your hand would just slip off and keep sliding
Speaker 1: until you fell in your face.
Speaker 2: Then you take both your fists and you dip them
Speaker 2: in tussy and it just.
Speaker 3: Now.
Speaker 2: Now the blood just slides up the knuckles. The government
Speaker 2: babies in yours are racist. He owes me money stuff.
Speaker 2: I can't tell me.
Speaker 1: Bust it, baby, There it is, there it is. Ladies
Speaker 1: and gentlemen, Welcome to another phenomenal episode.
Speaker 2: Of My Mama Told Me, the podcast where we dive deep,
Speaker 2: deep into the pockets of black conspiracy theories and.
Speaker 1: We finally work to prove that Jermaine Dupree did in
Speaker 1: fact give bow Wow human growth hormone so that that
Speaker 1: nigga would stay little and cute for longer, thus making
Speaker 1: him more profitable in a market share that needed it.
Speaker 1: I am Langston Kerman, and I believe the fuck out
Speaker 1: of that one.
Speaker 2: I'm David Borie, and I think they're spitting facts because
Speaker 2: I don't trust your man anyways. Why do you have
Speaker 2: so many children at us? Way too many kids and
Speaker 2: many kids?
Speaker 1: And I think he saw the mistake he made with
Speaker 1: Criss Cross by letting them niggas grow into full humans too.
Speaker 2: Fast, because none of us like that. We did not
Speaker 2: like a grown up Criss Cross.
Speaker 1: Come on, man, it grossed me out so fast.
Speaker 2: And I had that album and I didn't like it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they got so big, they got mustaches, and we
Speaker 1: were like, get the the fuck out of here.
Speaker 2: They're talking about fucking nobody wants that.
Speaker 1: If you don't take y'all ugly asses to the DMV
Speaker 1: and get out of my face.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're the magany Mac. I don't like that's a
Speaker 2: little bow. Wow looked like a girl his first five
Speaker 2: years out. Remember gorgeous, gorgeous, beautiful eyes.
Speaker 1: There's that video. I don't know if you remember this.
Speaker 2: That of course I remember it, yeah, or that that.
Speaker 1: He's like like, yeah, he's like, man, you're cute as hell.
Speaker 2: You're cute.
Speaker 1: You're a cute little and they're like, hey man.
Speaker 2: That's a boy. No he says, he says, that's a nigger.
Speaker 1: And for some reason he put that in the Kanye documentary.
Speaker 2: I think it was one of my favorite parts because yeah,
Speaker 2: I did just rewatch it.
Speaker 1: Why he was like it was like, how do I
Speaker 1: justify my uh my relationship with Kanye. I better show
Speaker 1: them my best work, which is accusing little bow Wow
Speaker 1: being a cute little girl.
Speaker 2: He looked like a little girl there. Though he had
Speaker 2: beautiful girls.
Speaker 1: He did look like a cute little girl. I didn't
Speaker 1: not still feel uncomfortable with how Coody was responding to
Speaker 1: a little girl being interviewed, but that's not my business,
Speaker 1: you know.
Speaker 2: He definitely was like you're so beautiful.
Speaker 1: Yes, it's like, hey man, I don't think you should
Speaker 1: talk to a little girl like that either.
Speaker 2: But all right, so where's bows?
Speaker 1: Oh buddy, I think that's why we're here.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 2: I just wondered where it turns with they just left
Speaker 2: you a snoop when you were a little girl, or they.
Speaker 1: Dropped him off at Snoop's house and they didn't look back. Yikes,
Speaker 1: And then Snoop was like, I can't raise another baby, Jermaine,
Speaker 1: what you're doing?
Speaker 2: James Like, it's me don Chichi. Remember when he wanted
Speaker 2: us to call him that. I do remember that.
Speaker 1: I haven't thought about it in a while, but I
Speaker 1: do remember.
Speaker 2: What a strange nickname. I'm not gonna call you don Chichi.
Speaker 1: I don't respect you enough to change your name. Jermaine Duprie.
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna Jermaine Dupree is a great name. Don
Speaker 2: chi Chi's gross. No, it's not good.
Speaker 1: Our guest today has never asked us to call her
Speaker 1: don Chichi as far as I as far as I know,
Speaker 1: I don't know. Maybe there's there's a don Chiche history
Speaker 1: that we're unaware of. She's she's hilarious, she's wonderful person
Speaker 1: that I was surprised had not done the podcast yet
Speaker 1: because she's so funny and we love her so much.
Speaker 1: You know her from so many things, most of which
Speaker 1: we can't list because of an ongoing strike that makes
Speaker 1: things inconvenient for.
Speaker 2: All of us.
Speaker 1: But she's she's hysterical and We're so happy she's here.
Speaker 1: Give it up for Candice Thompson.
Speaker 3: We need a button, need an award because that was
Speaker 3: the hardest intro to sit through without chiming in.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, No, if you've got thoughts, you got
Speaker 1: to throw them in now.
Speaker 4: Oh okay, at the moment, hasn't I feel like the.
Speaker 2: Moment this podcast club.
Speaker 1: Please understand, we have entire episodes dedicated to bow Wow
Speaker 1: and bow Wow alone.
Speaker 2: So we love yeah.
Speaker 1: Him still to this day.
Speaker 2: We love him right now.
Speaker 1: Some of us more than others, but but absolutely the
Speaker 1: dedication remains on both ends.
Speaker 3: I mean, when you're talking about Jermaine Dupree giving him,
Speaker 3: was it human growth hormone?
Speaker 1: Is that the HG H? Is that what she said?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 1: No, I'm not a learned man, so I don't know
Speaker 1: exactly what chemicals he was putting in his body, but
Speaker 1: I know he gave him something to keep that nigga
Speaker 1: small because.
Speaker 4: I feel like hurt people. Hurt people because Jermaine dupre
Speaker 4: is also this tall.
Speaker 2: He's a cute girl.
Speaker 3: Come on, maybe it was past that it was done
Speaker 3: to him right, and then now he's paying it forward.
Speaker 2: Because didn't he grow up like on tour with uh
Speaker 2: did he was?
Speaker 5: He?
Speaker 2: He on tour like LSG? He was like a dancer
Speaker 2: when he was a little boy. Yeah something maybe not LSG.
Speaker 2: That's a weird one that I was like to say,
Speaker 2: what does he dancing to? Would be a weird That
Speaker 2: would be a weird group to have a little boy dancer.
Speaker 3: Wait, that was a LeVert Sweat, Gil Gil Sweat and Gila.
Speaker 2: It was the Avengers of R and B Me's.
Speaker 3: I mean, if anybody they did come together like both
Speaker 3: tronk they absolutely.
Speaker 1: If you mean Avengers, you mean the ones that nobody
Speaker 1: gives a fuck about.
Speaker 2: Well, don't do that to my man, Keith Sweat, don't.
Speaker 1: That was a real black widow teams up with fren
Speaker 1: Man don Sheetle's character teams up with with Hawkeye.
Speaker 2: As far as sometimes you take the bit too far,
Speaker 2: I don't like this.
Speaker 1: Look.
Speaker 3: I just saw a flyer with Keith Sweat's name on it.
Speaker 3: Him and Tank.
Speaker 6: Yeah yeah, what is the today Pleasure Principal and Twisted
Speaker 6: Yeah they together love sex pain was that Tank song?
Speaker 3: All I know is the flyer was on an on
Speaker 3: a pole like a light post, just like how you
Speaker 3: say those we buy houses in La.
Speaker 4: It's the same shit. I don't so it's a problem.
Speaker 1: They just it just had that poster and it said
Speaker 1: we buy panties.
Speaker 2: They don't have social media.
Speaker 1: I did see. I saw a flyer the other day,
Speaker 1: and I think this is now just a common way
Speaker 1: for these guys to keep making money.
Speaker 2: But it was like.
Speaker 1: Twelve plus R and B legends all on a single
Speaker 1: tour together, and it felt like yeah, it was like, yeah,
Speaker 1: Mandel did post it. It was like Drew Hill and
Speaker 1: fucking Shy and all kinds of groups that that. It's like,
Speaker 1: I don't know how y'all are actually getting paid off
Speaker 1: of this, because this is too many, too many people,
Speaker 1: too many people.
Speaker 2: I would love to see Drew Hill, though, I'd love
Speaker 2: to see all of them five steps.
Speaker 3: No, I would, but it's you know, it's not the
Speaker 3: original members anymore.
Speaker 2: Oh is the fat one still? Then? If you say
Speaker 2: he's dead to me, if you.
Speaker 1: Honestly, I'm starting to get stressed.
Speaker 2: Somebody to look it up real quick.
Speaker 1: Is the fat dude from Drew.
Speaker 2: His name was wood I don't know that wouldn't That
Speaker 2: wasn't Woody, That was it Wascchio. It was like he
Speaker 2: was like the sexy vaguely Asian one. Cisco. Yeah, Okayio
Speaker 2: Woody was kind of like the guy Jazz it was Jazz.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yes, yeah. I think that Drew Hill members are
Speaker 1: probably back together. That would be my I I would
Speaker 1: assume Larry Jazz Anthony is his name, and I think, uh,
Speaker 1: I think Drew Hill probably has has not enough going
Speaker 1: on that they all agree to to link back up.
Speaker 1: That would be my guess. Even Cisco, Yes, Cisco, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I can see him com that reconvening, and we do
Speaker 1: owe a lot to Cisco that I don't think he
Speaker 1: often gets credited for.
Speaker 2: I think a lot of this. Well sure, yeah, they
Speaker 2: pioneered that matrix technology. Everybody forgets about that where you
Speaker 2: jump up in the Camera Spins video before the matrix
Speaker 2: came out.
Speaker 1: He ran on top of a sea of women in
Speaker 1: in the the Thong song video, and he wore his
Speaker 1: belly out in a way that is very trendy. Now,
Speaker 1: he was just a trendsetter culturally that I don't think
Speaker 1: we're ever gonna admit this. His clothes, we're exciting, dog leather,
Speaker 1: nothing but leather, come on, different animal skins.
Speaker 4: He was taking risks, he.
Speaker 2: Was taking risks. He was taking risks.
Speaker 1: He was a daring motherfucker and and he he, I
Speaker 1: think also pioneered a lot of like the R and
Speaker 1: B hip hop collaboration say later, Yeah, no, I mean,
Speaker 1: although you did do that.
Speaker 2: Because I had a hat with an Asian I don't
Speaker 2: know what it said, but I had one.
Speaker 1: Because of them, there was a period where vaguely Asian
Speaker 1: shit had a deep choke hold in the hip hop community,
Speaker 1: and I think Cisco Is owed a lot of credit
Speaker 1: for that. Come on, Lake, Sid, I know you had
Speaker 1: one of those button downs, you know what? I know
Speaker 1: you had one of those button downs. You know what
Speaker 1: I had was I had one of those. I don't
Speaker 1: know if this was big only in Chicago or if
Speaker 1: this was everywhere, but there were like those like Chinese
Speaker 1: hats that like would swoop down, wait like.
Speaker 2: Raid yeah that raiding yo, you're wild God.
Speaker 1: Raiden hats were real big in the hood, uh during
Speaker 1: the Cisco era. And I got my mom to get
Speaker 1: me one from the beauty supply and I never really
Speaker 1: had the confidence to wear it that often, but.
Speaker 2: But when I did, Boy did I feel empowered. Man
Speaker 2: having a crazy hat. That's the toughest thing to go
Speaker 2: out in.
Speaker 1: You think it's gonna work every time, and then you
Speaker 1: put it on and you're like, man, I can't I
Speaker 1: can't wait the bus stop with this.
Speaker 2: You know, I had a bucket hat because I thought
Speaker 2: saw Eric Sermon or Keith mary Ward one in the
Speaker 2: Dusk Squad video. Nobody was like, hey, if you're a
Speaker 2: fat kid in a bucket hat, people will make fun
Speaker 2: of you because you look nuts. There's not enough hat there.
Speaker 1: But what I what I was saying is I think
Speaker 1: Cisco was an early pioneer in in R and B
Speaker 1: singers being the features on hip hop songs. Like before
Speaker 1: Cisco rappers weren't like linking up with singing niggas that much.
Speaker 1: And I think that that he led the way in
Speaker 1: a lot of ways on that that collaboration there was, yeah,
Speaker 1: brought them together. Yeah, there were a few of them
Speaker 1: where where it was like, oh, okay, we could just
Speaker 1: have a singing singing as dude.
Speaker 2: Do this part. Yeah. I like that about it, the.
Speaker 4: Best of both worlds. Remember that with jay Z and
Speaker 4: R Kelly.
Speaker 2: Oh that Forbidden album and they did it twice.
Speaker 1: I think jay Z would love for us to forget
Speaker 1: that they made two albums together.
Speaker 4: Remember that jay it is.
Speaker 2: A dream team combo though doing an unbelievable combination.
Speaker 1: That title was accurate.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, he was.
Speaker 1: Two pedophiles linking up doing.
Speaker 2: Their man We're gonna get canceled?
Speaker 4: Wait what j is jay Z dabbling in children?
Speaker 1: I think there's an argument to be made that if
Speaker 1: you believe Beyonce is the age that she is, and
Speaker 1: it was an inappropriate relationship from the start, but.
Speaker 2: Also because it piggybacked off of the Aliah thing.
Speaker 1: Yes, also that, But I will say I think if
Speaker 1: you if you stick with it for as long as
Speaker 1: he has.
Speaker 2: It wipes the slight clean.
Speaker 1: Candice, I'm sorry that your career is going to take
Speaker 1: a hit the way that it is by joining up
Speaker 1: with us this afternoon, but we are very excited you're here.
Speaker 1: You came with a conspiracy theory that.
Speaker 2: I guess bory.
Speaker 1: I don't know where this falls in terms of things
Speaker 1: that you've heard or haven't heard. I don't know that
Speaker 1: I've ever heard it as a conspiracy theory, but I
Speaker 1: certainly have heard it throughout my life.
Speaker 2: You said, my mama told me using bassling or scan
Speaker 2: is better than lotia, which is correct. I think insane
Speaker 2: and I was vassline kid. That's don't do that to me.
Speaker 2: Come on, I have a very good skincare regimen now.
Speaker 2: But yeah, I was leaving the house shiny as fuck.
Speaker 2: I know you.
Speaker 3: Okay, Okay, I know. That's what I'm saying. You look
Speaker 3: like a vasoline kid. You look like every kid that
Speaker 3: I knew and Gret. Look, we had tubs of vasiline
Speaker 3: in my house too. Okay, this is not a vasaline
Speaker 3: shame podcast.
Speaker 2: And it is only sold in a tub.
Speaker 1: Like giant tubs. Yeah it's different.
Speaker 2: Yeah, no one's ever bought it though, nobody ever remembers
Speaker 2: by No, it just is it just there.
Speaker 1: Yeah, So Candace, tell us everything you know, tell us
Speaker 1: tell us what you have.
Speaker 3: Oh I don't. I don't know much. All I know
Speaker 3: is that black people love moisturization. That's where you know
Speaker 3: the phrase black don't crack. I think, yes, a lot
Speaker 3: of it is genetics, but I think even more so
Speaker 3: is the moisturization regimen that black moms teach their kids. Sure,
Speaker 3: the layering of the oils is always uh you know important.
Speaker 3: All right, multiple coconut oil, you said, I said, multiple oils,
Speaker 3: multiple some solids, some bombs.
Speaker 1: Absolutely, absolutely so.
Speaker 3: Vacilline to me, we were in my layering household was
Speaker 3: more of a ceilant. We would put on lotions first
Speaker 3: and then the vacoline would come to seal it in moisture. Yes,
Speaker 3: also fun if you're swimming, because then if you go
Speaker 3: swimming and then the know the layer of vacline, the
Speaker 3: water would just beat up on you.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, a protectant against the chlorine in the pool.
Speaker 2: It's much like that outer layer around the earth of
Speaker 2: ice that people talk about. What's that the asthenosphere or something. Yeah,
Speaker 2: you know what I'm talking about. I'm familiar. I wasn't
Speaker 2: gonna be brave enough to use the word that you used,
Speaker 2: but I started going and I just had to. Like,
Speaker 2: I didn't feel confident at all.
Speaker 1: But I'm not confident you said the right thing.
Speaker 2: But it was probably.
Speaker 3: Spear.
Speaker 1: Yeah, sounds Greek. I think it's absolute.
Speaker 2: Hold on. It is a thing. It is the upper
Speaker 2: layer of the Earth's mantle, below the liptosphere, in which
Speaker 2: there is relatively low resistance to plastic flow, and convention
Speaker 2: is thought to occur.
Speaker 1: Mm hmm.
Speaker 2: So let's not look any deeper than that. You heard it.
Speaker 1: You heard it here first, folks, my boy knows some words.
Speaker 2: But at the end of the day, yes, you I
Speaker 2: know what you mean about putting on lotion and then
Speaker 2: trapping the lotion with a sheet of vessel.
Speaker 4: Correct.
Speaker 1: So this is this is what they, your parents, your
Speaker 1: family are encouraging you to do. Frankly, I as enforcing
Speaker 1: you to do, as many of our families have. Is
Speaker 1: it something you have maintained in your adult life? Do
Speaker 1: you continue to vasilene as an adult?
Speaker 3: Now Here's the thing is, there's been a lot of
Speaker 3: vasoline hate over the years.
Speaker 1: You can hear. There was Shane.
Speaker 3: When David started, he was like, don't you call me
Speaker 3: a vasaline kid?
Speaker 1: Like you right there?
Speaker 2: Because you were walking around crazy shiny. I did look nuts. Yeah,
Speaker 2: like it looked like I was like a fucking fried
Speaker 2: cook or something like. It was there's like a sheen.
Speaker 1: Yeah you said that, and he immediately put his dukes
Speaker 1: up old style.
Speaker 4: Absolutely, how dare you?
Speaker 3: I had a friend who knew a kid who went
Speaker 3: to school with him when he was an elementary school
Speaker 3: who would ride a bike to school and because of
Speaker 3: the layer of vasoline that was over his face when
Speaker 3: he got to school, there was nats and like fly
Speaker 3: Oh no, oh.
Speaker 2: Poor guy, Oh poor face. I hope that's what you
Speaker 2: called him.
Speaker 1: Oh no, he didn't do to.
Speaker 3: He went to one of my close friends back in
Speaker 3: when I was growing up. He went to his school,
Speaker 3: so I didn't know the kid, but I my friend
Speaker 3: is mean, so yes, he probably did call him.
Speaker 2: But I gotta get on your as. He can't show
Speaker 2: up covered in bugs.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but you got bugged on your skin. We gotta
Speaker 1: talk about it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I got this. I got vacilline on my face.
Speaker 2: I got a deflect from I'm calling it.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be like, excuse me, miss uh, mister Johnson.
Speaker 1: We can't do math today. This nigga got bugged on him.
Speaker 1: He got on his forehead. No, no, no, I agree.
Speaker 1: X was why he does equal seven.
Speaker 2: But this nigga got bugs. Wait, Legston, were you a
Speaker 2: vascoline guy? I definitely dabbled.
Speaker 1: I got acne super early, and uh, I think at
Speaker 1: that point vasilene felt dangerous. You can't you can't mix
Speaker 1: and match vassalline with a severe acne. So I stopped
Speaker 1: being a vasoline kid pretty early as well.
Speaker 2: Do you feel like your acne humbled you.
Speaker 1: It didn't make me prouder, It didn't make me stronger
Speaker 1: by any means. It definitely kept me in a real,
Speaker 1: a real sweet pocket of knowing who the fuck I
Speaker 1: needed to be at all times. I knew who I
Speaker 1: couldn't talk back to, and I knew I knew not
Speaker 1: to raise my voice at inopportune times, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean?
Speaker 2: Yeah, Oh man, I don't think I could have handled
Speaker 2: it like bad actne. I think that would have fucked me.
Speaker 1: You didn't have you didn't have acne.
Speaker 2: No, my skin's always been very clear.
Speaker 4: Maybe it's that basoline, is what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: Maybe, I mean I think that, like I recall, like
Speaker 2: at the worst, maybe at like sixteen seventeen, like during
Speaker 2: football season, where the helmet would rub against my forehead,
Speaker 2: I would get like pimples there a little bit. But
Speaker 2: that's about it.
Speaker 1: Good for you, man, Yeah, lucky, lucky, Yeah, very lucky.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I had to take accutane like three years ago, just
Speaker 1: fix the hell that I had long lived through. I
Speaker 1: was in, I was in final stages.
Speaker 2: Of of survival. But you don't have like scars.
Speaker 1: No accutane truly is a medical miracle. It just also
Speaker 1: has like the most risks that.
Speaker 3: Will Luckily you're not a person who can bear children
Speaker 3: because women and reproduction is yeah, and that's.
Speaker 1: The bigger thing is that it's actually more of a
Speaker 1: risk for women because the medical community doesn't give a
Speaker 1: fuck about y'all. But for men the risks are pretty minimal.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 1: And Olivia saying we should get accutained a sponsor, my
Speaker 1: mama told me, and I'll do it for free. They
Speaker 1: saved my life. I was gonna be a bumpy whore
Speaker 1: for the for the ever and always, and Accutain came
Speaker 1: in and made me different. And I'll never not say
Speaker 1: nice things about them.
Speaker 3: And clearly your sperm still works and your sperm be beautiful.
Speaker 1: I actually don't know if that's true. I got my
Speaker 1: wife pregnant before I started accutaining and she ain't knocked up,
Speaker 1: so it could have ruined everything. And thank you, Accutane,
Speaker 1: thank you for all you do.
Speaker 2: What a twist this episode took.
Speaker 1: Yeah, this wasn't what we we set out to talk
Speaker 1: about by any means. So Candice, I I don't know
Speaker 1: that we got to your true answer inside of this.
Speaker 1: Are you remain Do you remain a gasoline girl to
Speaker 1: this day?
Speaker 3: That was So That's what I was getting to is
Speaker 3: the there's a lot of information about basiline or petro
Speaker 3: petro latum is a petroleum jelly, right, it's from petrolatum.
Speaker 1: Is where where that it derives from?
Speaker 3: And there's a lot of information about petrolatum out there,
Speaker 3: and I don't know which to believe. There's information that
Speaker 3: says that it's good, great for your skin, and then
Speaker 3: there's information that argues against that, saying there's a lot
Speaker 3: of chemicals in the processing of it and so they
Speaker 3: can be it can be carcinogenic and stuff like that.
Speaker 1: So I don't know.
Speaker 3: So because of that, I have not used vaciline because
Speaker 3: of that.
Speaker 4: But my sister, on the other hand, she loves it, okay.
Speaker 1: On her face.
Speaker 3: Yeah, there is an actual term slugging in the Wait,
Speaker 3: what do you say?
Speaker 2: I was gonna say vasline face, but I think your
Speaker 2: bug frace.
Speaker 1: I think that's gonna say greasy lip, moon creaky.
Speaker 3: Okay, Why you gotta bring the moon cricket because it
Speaker 3: is my favorite racial epithet, by the way, it's one
Speaker 3: I mean, unfortunately, my favorite ones aren't for us.
Speaker 1: No, Listen, in the in the late seventeen hundreds, white
Speaker 1: people were fucking funny. They were pretty funny, hilarious. Now
Speaker 1: they're exhausting and like, a lot of this is just
Speaker 1: recycling a bunch of things that were meant to hurt
Speaker 1: us when we were different people. But when they were
Speaker 1: just looking at us as captives and like making up
Speaker 1: phrases them niggas, they went crazy.
Speaker 2: They went funny.
Speaker 1: The boon creaky. You looked at a bunch of a
Speaker 1: bunch of black people singing.
Speaker 2: You're like fucking moon creepy.
Speaker 1: I would have cracked up if I weren't in chained.
Speaker 2: Porch monkey. Come on, man, that's funny one. There's some good.
Speaker 1: Ones in there.
Speaker 3: I've been also a fan of spooky.
Speaker 2: Like that one. I like that when the Spooker sat
Speaker 2: up beside the door. You read that book, it was
Speaker 2: so funny. Oh, it's kind of that's a great book.
Speaker 3: You're gonna have to put a disclaimer on this episode.
Speaker 3: Candice is black.
Speaker 2: They know what they know where we're coming from. This
Speaker 2: is not the first time we've discussed slurs.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we we we take a hard position on slurs.
Speaker 2: Are funny in this podcast, I said one they had
Speaker 2: to cut it out. It was a problem.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but it wasn't one that we're allowed to say.
Speaker 3: Now wait, there's all the other ones are fine, but
Speaker 3: there's one particular one.
Speaker 1: Now you've gone too far.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it wasn't for us. It was a different. It
Speaker 2: was a different We are not a part of a
Speaker 2: white but it was a white group.
Speaker 1: But but still not not the not the whites in charge.
Speaker 1: So we gotta be chill, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2: It wasn't a great look for your kid, for the
Speaker 2: boy anyway.
Speaker 1: So Candice, it sounds like you are no longer uh
Speaker 1: a hardcore vasilene advocate, but you are not on the
Speaker 1: side the opposition of vassilene either. Do you think that
Speaker 1: your your family besides your are your parents still greasing
Speaker 1: up that way? Or was that strictly for the kids?
Speaker 1: I prefer the term lubing.
Speaker 2: Okay, what's it supposed to be for? No.
Speaker 1: I don't think you're supposed to use it for lube.
Speaker 1: In fact, I think they tell you not to do that.
Speaker 1: You don't even know how to use it properly.
Speaker 2: I don't use it. I don't keep it in my own.
Speaker 3: See.
Speaker 4: Look he's still got the shame.
Speaker 2: Look at him. Keep it.
Speaker 1: I don't have any best lead in my house.
Speaker 2: It was a family.
Speaker 1: That's disgusting. So are you Are your parents still very
Speaker 1: much uh lubing that way or now?
Speaker 3: Well, you know our parents are in that generation. It's
Speaker 3: like if the stuff was working back then. No matter
Speaker 3: how many reports have come out today saying you shouldn't
Speaker 3: use these chemicals, my mom still uses.
Speaker 1: Bleach every day.
Speaker 3: She's still cleaning the house with light sool or you
Speaker 3: spraying lightsol and glade pluggings and all the and I'm like,
Speaker 3: this stuff has been proven to best with our hormones.
Speaker 3: She don't care.
Speaker 1: Yeah, damn. I also still plug in the glade and
Speaker 1: all that. I just I'd rather be sick than stinky.
Speaker 1: I guess is with the oil very good essential oil.
Speaker 2: I don't know what type of oil. Yeah, I don't.
Speaker 1: Those are non essential working oils.
Speaker 4: Well, my mom, you know she is Vasseline Rider died.
Speaker 3: Yeah, she'll probably have it holding some in her in
Speaker 3: her coffee.
Speaker 1: Oh boy, yeah, bury me, bury me greasy.
Speaker 2: I want to die like I lived, shining.
Speaker 1: All right, we're gonna take a break We'll be back
Speaker 1: with more candide stops and the more my Mama to.
Speaker 2: Me, Welcome back. We got Candice Thompson. We're talking about
Speaker 2: whether or not it's okay to put vaciline on your
Speaker 2: face and if you got bugs in that ship.
Speaker 3: They actually, you know how they have vasoline and they
Speaker 3: have different like flavors.
Speaker 4: They have like one that's like cocoa butter. Right, have
Speaker 4: you seen that?
Speaker 2: No? I have not seen that brand.
Speaker 3: No vassiline. Vacine is doing by like a cocoa butter
Speaker 3: in thing.
Speaker 2: This is heard about this.
Speaker 1: This feels like they don't even put it in the
Speaker 1: ethnic care aisle.
Speaker 2: This is like, uh, this is.
Speaker 1: It's so black.
Speaker 4: It's next to it's just next to the Cheetos.
Speaker 1: This feels like they put it next to like the
Speaker 1: cools up behind the counter.
Speaker 4: It's just right next to the forties.
Speaker 1: It's just pall mall cigarettes and cherry flavored vassoline and yeah,
Speaker 1: I guess I'll take some cherry please.
Speaker 2: It sounds so bad. Fuck.
Speaker 3: It's a combo pack, you know, like if you buy
Speaker 3: one then has one tape to the side.
Speaker 4: It comes with Why does this Hennessy come with with?
Speaker 1: Coco butter. You're gonna find out drink old bottle. You
Speaker 1: know you don't want that grease?
Speaker 2: Oh no, I don't love that. Oh that's nasty.
Speaker 1: What is nasty?
Speaker 2: No? Not? And for any Hennessy combo pack always I
Speaker 2: meant more the flavor, the cocoa butter flavored vascline.
Speaker 1: No, it's not. You don't eat it, Okay, I was.
Speaker 2: Gonna eat it. I was gonna eat it.
Speaker 1: I was, And I don't like that.
Speaker 2: That's why I said cherry.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I was like, which one would I like blue lemonade?
Speaker 2: So I gotta go back. I gotta look. I haven't
Speaker 2: seen Vassilena a long time. I guess that feels crazy.
Speaker 3: Though it's not. How is it crazy? We were just
Speaker 3: talking about the best of both worlds, right, well.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that album that didn't come out.
Speaker 4: Correct, Now he got because the time correct.
Speaker 1: First of all, both albums came out, one did much
Speaker 1: better than the other, and they toured together.
Speaker 2: People forget this.
Speaker 1: They toured together, didn't come out and the tour was cut.
Speaker 1: The second tour was cut short because R Kelly kept
Speaker 1: acting the fuck up every time he went on stage,
Speaker 1: so much so that on the final performance of the tour.
Speaker 1: And this is only like four dates in a jay
Speaker 1: Z sent his bodyguards out on stage to pepper spray
Speaker 1: R Kelly and in the show early, I swear to
Speaker 1: God this is true.
Speaker 2: What was he doing?
Speaker 1: He kept claiming that people had guns in the audience
Speaker 1: and he was like getting in arguments with audience members
Speaker 1: and shit, and like it was being like crazy and disruptive,
Speaker 1: and criminal charges were coming down the pipeline and jay
Speaker 1: Z was like, fuck it, pepper spray that nigga, and we're.
Speaker 2: Leaving and did so.
Speaker 1: And that was the last show.
Speaker 2: That was the last show they did together. Yes, I
Speaker 2: mean it's kind of late now, but maybe somebody needs
Speaker 2: to check on R. Kelly's mental health.
Speaker 1: Decades.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a little too late. Oh it's a bad one.
Speaker 2: We're saying all the bad stuff today. Yeah, it's not
Speaker 2: a good one. Yeah, you really got us going. I'm
Speaker 2: okay with it.
Speaker 1: I will say that that to this vaciline cocoa butter
Speaker 1: combination that you're referring to, one of the things that
Speaker 1: I found because I was looking up is vacinline good
Speaker 1: for you? Is vacinling bad for you? And to your point,
Speaker 1: a lot of the reviews are mixed. There's a fair
Speaker 1: amount of evidence that if it is treated correctly and
Speaker 1: properly sort of like filtered, I guess is maybe the
Speaker 1: best word, it is perfectly healthy and causes no toxins
Speaker 1: in your body or won't you know, make you sick,
Speaker 1: anything like that. But if it isn't, and they point
Speaker 1: to the fact that there are a lot of knockoff
Speaker 1: brands that they can't actually prove are doing the right
Speaker 1: sort of like filtering and shit, that it very much
Speaker 1: is just made of crude oil, leftover crude oil, and
Speaker 1: is definitely going to have a lot of toxins inside
Speaker 1: of it.
Speaker 2: Right, That's what I worry about, is it's made from
Speaker 2: dinosaur bone.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's just us digging up dinosaurs and rubbing pterodactyl
Speaker 1: on our lips and shit, hey man, it's just minerals.
Speaker 2: It makes me feel decadent and rich in that way. Yeah, right,
Speaker 2: I like using animal to make me beautiful.
Speaker 1: Yeah, nigga, nigga, I'm covered in stegosaurus right now.
Speaker 2: You gotta feel gorgeous. They're spreading Sloane on eight monkeys.
Speaker 1: Each one more handsome than the last eight gorgeous monkeys,
Speaker 1: beautiful beautiful monkeys.
Speaker 4: What is the what?
Speaker 2: What?
Speaker 3: What is the knockoff? We're talking about knockoff vasoline? So
Speaker 3: we got vasoline, well, you know they got Robotuestin and tuessin, right,
Speaker 3: what would vasoline knockoff?
Speaker 1: Just sleem slean.
Speaker 4: An apostrophe.
Speaker 1: You know what scares me is that they're gonna call
Speaker 1: it vassa and then it's just niggas running rubbing vasa
Speaker 1: on their skins. You got that vasa and it's like,
Speaker 1: that's too close to massa. I don't like none of this.
Speaker 1: This all feels wrong.
Speaker 2: I also feel like, if you're gonna buy it, don't
Speaker 2: go knockoff, you know, spend the money on basolene.
Speaker 3: It's also already cheap, like vasoline is one of those
Speaker 3: things because it's so readily available, like it's never it's never,
Speaker 3: there's never gonna be like such a demand for it
Speaker 3: in a low like abundance of it. It is everywhere,
Speaker 3: and so I feel like a big you can get
Speaker 3: a big tub of it, but probably like like a
Speaker 3: giant tub, like five dollars.
Speaker 2: When they gets the same price as tussy as what,
Speaker 2: you know, what the fuck is tussy? That that tub
Speaker 2: deodorant tussy? You know? Oh, how do you call it?
Speaker 1: You call it tussy?
Speaker 3: I'm sorry, excuse me, excuse me. You just so used
Speaker 3: to saying the people.
Speaker 2: I think that I saw a word and I said
Speaker 2: what I thought it? It is tussy?
Speaker 4: Yeah, tuossy doesn't even sound right.
Speaker 1: That sounds wrong. It's too close to pussy. What is
Speaker 1: wrong with you?
Speaker 2: I thought that was the joke.
Speaker 1: No, guys, how do we spell tussy?
Speaker 2: Because I don't know how to spelled tussy? Don't like,
Speaker 2: I truly don't know.
Speaker 1: I know nothing of tussy, and frankly, I'm excited to
Speaker 1: find out, and I just need a little bit of
Speaker 1: guidance the US.
Speaker 2: That's why I got a big argument about tussy the
Speaker 2: other day because my buddy was saying that it was
Speaker 2: only for big girls, and I think it's for everybody.
Speaker 3: It's for everybody. Had I had a tussy stint back
Speaker 3: in high school?
Speaker 1: Who didn't, Hey, we all tried to sey in college.
Speaker 2: That's why I went to state school. That's a time
Speaker 2: to explore.
Speaker 3: Tussy was a big man from two thousand and four
Speaker 3: to two thousand and eight.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I think if it's spelled like this, it
Speaker 1: has to be tussy.
Speaker 2: I don't. I don't.
Speaker 1: You can try to run from it, but we have
Speaker 1: too many words that that are spelled this way for
Speaker 1: this to be special.
Speaker 2: You know, there's a clear precedent that's been set on
Speaker 2: the uss y words.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I feel like women call it tuessy and men
Speaker 3: that's probably true, that's.
Speaker 1: Fair, but that's because men are brave and women are cowards.
Speaker 3: But it was that was the That was a deodorant.
Speaker 3: It was a cream. It came like in a tub,
Speaker 3: like just a round plastic jar tub, small, and then
Speaker 3: you put your hand in it.
Speaker 4: Right, you have to dip your hand in it. It's cream.
Speaker 4: Glob it, mirror it under your armpits.
Speaker 5: Yes, very sexual. The application process, wow, I gotta believe.
Speaker 5: Because it's deodorant. The washing your hands after is is
Speaker 5: not easy. That seems like that.
Speaker 1: Would be because it's it's water resistance.
Speaker 2: Your fingers are going to smell like tussy for weeks.
Speaker 1: On your fingers up, like smell like nigga, you ain't
Speaker 1: been fucking you put on.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but it's good deodoring, right, it was thick.
Speaker 1: Wait, well, I had no idea about Tussy, But but
Speaker 1: I think we were talking about the cheapness of basilene
Speaker 1: was how we ended up here.
Speaker 4: Wait, but I have a quick question about TuS one
Speaker 4: more time. Yeah, what was the purpose of tussy?
Speaker 1: Like was it?
Speaker 2: So that was the argument, not the argument. But I
Speaker 2: was talking to my friend about it. He said it
Speaker 2: was for big girls. But I don't know if that's true.
Speaker 3: It said that on the jar, David Dude.
Speaker 4: Tussy for big girls. That's really what it says.
Speaker 1: Is that true? Oh, I was gonna be devastated for
Speaker 1: the big girl community. They you just have separate deodorant.
Speaker 1: That seems bigoted for sure?
Speaker 3: Your friend wrong, right, because I use it. I wasn't
Speaker 3: a girl, and my friend Deshaun also used it. She
Speaker 3: was not a big girl either, and we both used
Speaker 3: it like for at least a year.
Speaker 2: I think Tussy is just for the real heads.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's described the literal jug says a cream deodorant,
Speaker 1: which I don't like that at all, And it's almost
Speaker 1: identical lettering to Tide.
Speaker 2: It all feels not good just.
Speaker 1: Looking at it for the first time. This is a mistake.
Speaker 1: They still make this. It seems that way it's certainly
Speaker 1: available on eBay. I'm not sure if it's like still
Speaker 1: being manufactured, but I have to assume they have a
Speaker 1: big old stock that they're they're sitting on that they're
Speaker 1: trying to unload.
Speaker 2: It's pH balanced. Oh good, thank god.
Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe that was a Maybe that was the selling point,
Speaker 3: because I don't know.
Speaker 4: I'm trying to remember why I started.
Speaker 3: I know it's because my friend started using it, but
Speaker 3: I don't remember if she was just like, oh, it's
Speaker 3: got like less chemicals in it, it doesn't have aluminum
Speaker 3: in it, whichever, which is linked to like breast cancer
Speaker 3: and stuff like that.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 2: Tuc looks like it's full of allum.
Speaker 1: Full of chemicals. Yeah, it seems like it sounds like it,
Speaker 1: for sure. It seems like they're just grounding up left
Speaker 1: over aluminum foil and pouring it into a jar with milk.
Speaker 2: You milk it, you stir it, and you handed to
Speaker 2: a big old black lady. I guess I don't know.
Speaker 1: That said, Yes, vacilline did feel on the cheaper side.
Speaker 1: It's similar to see noxema. All of it felt like
Speaker 1: stuff that certainly our parents were telling us to use
Speaker 1: and just felt like raw chemicals, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: It was just like the base chemicals that didn't cost
Speaker 1: much but but were effective at what they claim to do.
Speaker 2: I never liked the feeling of vasoline though. Whenever you
Speaker 2: put it on. It's like I felt like as a kid,
Speaker 2: you know, I would just put sometimes it's just like,
Speaker 2: I see why you liked this. Yeah, yeah, it was like, no,
Speaker 2: I get it. The one thing is Can has got
Speaker 2: his fingers in the tussy again.
Speaker 8: Canda times to get your fingers out of my tusy.
Speaker 2: So I go. So we are different in that because
Speaker 2: I didn't I remember as a kid. That was always
Speaker 2: my problem was it it felt like it never went in.
Speaker 4: So yeah, you know what I mean, not supposed to
Speaker 4: go in. That's what I'm getting mad.
Speaker 1: That's only makes you feel like you walk around feeling
Speaker 1: like Aquaman all day, where you're like, am.
Speaker 2: I am I still wet? Why am I? Why am
Speaker 2: I so wet? It was like vaguely sticky.
Speaker 4: This is why you were never instructed properly.
Speaker 1: This is the problem.
Speaker 4: Maybe I need to do vassaline tutorials.
Speaker 2: Okay, that could be huge for you on TikTok. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I don't know if you will garner the audience you
Speaker 2: are looking for, not at all for sure, gonna be pervs.
Speaker 1: But you know, yeah, nobody, nobody's gonna watch it and
Speaker 1: then do what you're saying. They're gonna watch it and
Speaker 1: they're gonna stare for a real long time.
Speaker 2: They're gonna watch it again and again and again.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and they're gonna use vacilline. But not on the
Speaker 1: part that you using it on.
Speaker 2: You know, they got.
Speaker 1: Massoline. Let's hit play a new CT just dropped freely mix.
Speaker 3: You're not using it was not meant to be like
Speaker 3: absorbed into the skin. It's for like wound healing and
Speaker 3: like it's a skin protectant, which I think it even
Speaker 3: says on there. It is like a skin protected So
Speaker 3: it's like to prevent moisture loss and if you have
Speaker 3: like abrasions or cuts, it'll heal those quicker. But like
Speaker 3: I said, it seals in other moisture. So if you
Speaker 3: put moisture on your skin before that, like a lotion,
Speaker 3: and then seal it in with the vacaline, I think
Speaker 3: is what the layering you're supposed to do.
Speaker 2: Well, I was putting.
Speaker 3: Anti vacaline versus lotion. It's not shouldn't be a war.
Speaker 3: You can use them together.
Speaker 1: They do say in the research that I found that
Speaker 1: that vacaline itself actually has zero moisturizing properties, That it
Speaker 1: is a although it makes you look moisturized, it is
Speaker 1: more a sealant for keeping in moisture already existing in
Speaker 1: your skin. Yes, so they do, to Candice's point, suggest
Speaker 1: that you lotion first and then use vasileine to retain
Speaker 1: the moisture that already exists.
Speaker 2: Yep, I'm putting it on my heels. M hm hm hmm.
Speaker 4: Craw dog in the vacoline on your heels.
Speaker 1: No loc.
Speaker 2: But then because it would like I remember that. I
Speaker 2: don't know, man, I just it felt like a lot.
Speaker 1: I'll admit I never once lotioned and then vasileined. I
Speaker 1: mean people who knew.
Speaker 3: But yeah, but I think the general population used use
Speaker 3: it as a moisturizer.
Speaker 1: It was like grease. I saw no point in in
Speaker 1: doubling up on this ship.
Speaker 2: It is a greasy grease to use it.
Speaker 1: Also, how could you use it?
Speaker 2: That's much clearly?
Speaker 1: Yeah, the bomb.
Speaker 3: You scoop it out and then you rub it together.
Speaker 3: You can thin layer, thin layer.
Speaker 2: Man, this isn't lightning. Though I am excited, I feel
Speaker 2: like maybe my vascline process was incorrect. Though it was,
Speaker 2: it was also like a like it was also like
Speaker 2: a go get ready for school. She's not standing over me,
Speaker 2: you know what I mean. So I just it was
Speaker 2: like a you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: You were left to your own devices with the vasciline.
Speaker 3: You were never properly instructed.
Speaker 2: Which is never a great idea.
Speaker 3: No leave a tub of anything with a child and
Speaker 3: say go ahead, let's.
Speaker 2: Not get ready for school.
Speaker 1: I shouldn't have had any of my own products until
Speaker 1: I was like at least seventeen. I was misusing everything
Speaker 1: in our for a while.
Speaker 2: Did you ever have an Apricot scrub?
Speaker 1: You gott They say that's the worst one. It is.
Speaker 2: It's like very terrible.
Speaker 1: It's like slicing your face open here. Yeah shit, I
Speaker 1: got now it's smooth though.
Speaker 3: Because saw the first three layers of your epithilial self.
Speaker 2: Yeah, what's that?
Speaker 1: What's that layer of vice you were talking about, David
Speaker 1: and destroys your theenisphere?
Speaker 2: Yeah? I do got this ship that's like made out
Speaker 2: of fruit. I gotta keep it in the fridge, and
Speaker 2: I do wonder when I put that on. Sometimes I'm like,
Speaker 2: this feels bad.
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, I was using apricross scrub way older than
Speaker 1: than I'm I'm proud to admit and uh and yeah,
Speaker 1: no it's not good for you.
Speaker 2: I've been told no, it's embarrassing too, because it's always somebody.
Speaker 1: Be like what you use that ship and you're like,
Speaker 1: oh oh even worse. You know, apricots scrub has like
Speaker 1: scales to it where they're like, these are little apricots
Speaker 1: and these are big fucking apricots. And I was always like,
Speaker 1: give me your scrubbiest scrub. I want me like fucking
Speaker 1: murder apricots. I want I want to bleed. Mother needs
Speaker 1: to look like stone ground mustard. I want to look
Speaker 1: like niggas are working on the railroad. Pick it up
Speaker 1: and put it on my face.
Speaker 3: If you did have rup abrasions on your face from
Speaker 3: an apricot scrub, then that would be a good time
Speaker 3: to use vasoline.
Speaker 2: Okay, Okay, what it sounds like is I should get
Speaker 2: some Maascline just in case, just in case. Yes, you
Speaker 2: know you have like a like a just in case
Speaker 2: products like I have I have a texturizer under the sink,
Speaker 2: just in case.
Speaker 3: You have activator in your just in case you never
Speaker 3: know when you're gonna need a jairy curl.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, just like somebody's gonna call. I don't I
Speaker 2: don't know who you know. Yeah, it's time, David, just
Speaker 2: a lot.
Speaker 3: I don't know, so silky smooth, just let it shine through.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yes, how.
Speaker 2: I want to feel. I want to feel like that bad.
Speaker 2: This sounds so good. It did sound good good yea,
Speaker 2: I really liked it.
Speaker 4: Wait, can I sidebar really quickly?
Speaker 2: Oh yes, please?
Speaker 3: I didn't know this, But the guy who invented jerry
Speaker 3: curls is white.
Speaker 1: Did you know this?
Speaker 2: I think you're probably gonna have to cut this out.
Speaker 2: Why you're going to cause a cause a riot? What?
Speaker 1: Yeah, Jerry is white? Yes, his name, Yes, his name
Speaker 1: is Jerry.
Speaker 2: Yes, and he.
Speaker 3: Probably I think so look it up. I can't remember,
Speaker 3: but I'm pretty sure that.
Speaker 1: He invented a juice for turning black people's hair flammable,
Speaker 1: wet and curly, flammable, flammable yeah, fire fire on the
Speaker 1: fire resistant.
Speaker 3: Yeah, hate crime, I hate crime, sir. Wow, black people
Speaker 3: did this for I mean I had neighbors growing up,
Speaker 3: I had Haitian neighbors.
Speaker 4: They all hold head full of Jerry curls.
Speaker 1: Okay, I'm gonna ask this and and I might get
Speaker 1: some pushback from y'all.
Speaker 2: Is he white or is he like uh that he's
Speaker 2: super white?
Speaker 1: He's not like that Middle Eastern white No, because they
Speaker 1: be they love black hair in a way that then
Speaker 1: makes me go, you know what I mean, there's those
Speaker 1: like weird Armenia motherfuckers who'd be doing even though there's
Speaker 1: black women's hair and shit.
Speaker 2: I'm looking it up. He also invented conditioner just in general.
Speaker 2: H damn. He's from Chicago though, Langston.
Speaker 1: Hey, we do a lot of cool stuff out there.
Speaker 2: You know Jerry Reading.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he really was banking off that name. Oh there
Speaker 1: he is, Jerry Reading.
Speaker 2: Damn. This is it's crazy. This is like the opposite
Speaker 2: of when I found out we invented the traffic light.
Speaker 2: It is Yeah, whatever that feeling was. Whatever.
Speaker 1: Oh he made it a long time too. He made
Speaker 1: it all the way to ninety one years old.
Speaker 2: Because he was suspended in perm juice.
Speaker 1: Yeah it was the activator.
Speaker 2: Yeah, his body's currently in a tank of activator underneath
Speaker 2: the Saally's on the west side waiting to be reanimated
Speaker 2: when the technology gets there.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're just going to electric the perm juice, so
Speaker 1: he's going to rise from the dead like a Frankenstein.
Speaker 2: Yeah, love it.
Speaker 1: There's also Olivia just posted a picture. There's no pictures
Speaker 1: of him where he isn't ninety one years old, which
Speaker 1: is fascinating, Like we they're not even showing pictures of
Speaker 1: him at the age when he could have invented this ship.
Speaker 1: He's just one hundred all the way from top to bottom.
Speaker 4: They probably didn't have cameras.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: You know what's crazy is there's this one picture that
Speaker 1: Olivia posted and the other ones are drawing, so you're
Speaker 1: not wrong.
Speaker 4: He's four hundred years old.
Speaker 2: There's always been a Jerry Curl.
Speaker 1: It's just being passed down from Jerry in a generation.
Speaker 2: He's like the back panther of wet hairstyles.
Speaker 1: He drinks the purple Jerry curled juice and then he
Speaker 1: like sees his ancestors sitting in a Jerry curled tree.
Speaker 1: The leaves are just all stringy and wet, and they're like,
Speaker 1: you gotta do it, brother, you gotta, you gotta.
Speaker 2: I don't have no Jerry curls in my family.
Speaker 4: Nobody in your family had Jerry curls. What about you, Langston?
Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely, yeah, No, I'm not better than that everybody,
Speaker 1: But you know I it was of the times for
Speaker 1: the generations that existed before me.
Speaker 2: So they all had it.
Speaker 1: They did.
Speaker 2: Would you if it came back, would you consider getting
Speaker 2: on board? Uh? No, No. I came back in a
Speaker 2: true like, not even on some corny like. It's just like, yeah,
Speaker 2: that's what everybody's doing. They're wearing Jerry curls. You know.
Speaker 1: What I never liked was less of the wetness of it,
Speaker 1: although I didn't care for that particularly either, but it
Speaker 1: was more the shag of it, that body. I don't like,
Speaker 1: the back, the fucking bullet longer. Yeah, all of that.
Speaker 1: It's a mullet, and it's part of what makes the
Speaker 1: Jerry curl. The Jerry curl like activator exists already and
Speaker 1: people wear it all the time. But you gotta be
Speaker 1: down for the mullet to really make that style sing.
Speaker 1: And I don't care for that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you gotta make a pop, yeah, short, short Jerry
Speaker 3: curls were never the business like. They were never they
Speaker 3: would never make your head turn when you have to
Speaker 3: see the Darryl in Coming to America that yeah. Long.
Speaker 4: To really do the Jerry Curl justice, you had to
Speaker 4: it had to be below the chin.
Speaker 2: Mm hmm. Man, I hear it right now. I hear
Speaker 2: you saying it, and in my head it sounds cool.
Speaker 2: You would do it. I would do it. At first
Speaker 2: under the guise of like a Halloween costume. It's like, oh, weird,
Speaker 2: I still got my Jerry Curl. Isn't that crazy? And
Speaker 2: then like just keep it going.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like, damn boy, it's this Thanksgiving. Man, you
Speaker 1: seem pretty committed.
Speaker 2: Nah. No, I just didn't want to cut my I
Speaker 2: haven't saved my barbering. Yeah, just till the end of
Speaker 2: the year. Till the end of the year. It's like,
Speaker 2: I like to cut my hair in the winter, so
Speaker 2: to springtime it's just jelly outside.
Speaker 3: Great great horror film on picturing me and a Jerry
Speaker 3: girl putting on a Jerry Curl wig and then it
Speaker 3: coming to life and you not being able to take
Speaker 3: it off because it's possessed.
Speaker 2: Oh, that would be hard.
Speaker 1: And it makes you do things damn.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it makes me get a bunch of twisty.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's called Jerry's Return much tousy. I can get
Speaker 1: with this.
Speaker 2: I'm dripping it tussy.
Speaker 1: That's what you're screaming at your intervention when people are like,
Speaker 1: just take it off.
Speaker 2: You're scary to your family.
Speaker 3: Oh my god, that would be I feel like that's
Speaker 3: like the twenty twenty three Pooty Tang.
Speaker 1: I'm not mad at it, and we can get a
Speaker 1: white man to write it, just like Pooty Tang.
Speaker 2: I'm not mad at any of this. Yeah, And ultimately
Speaker 2: it means I could get a Jerry curl without, you know,
Speaker 2: because you can't just do it, you know what.
Speaker 3: There has to be a reason, a reason, you'd have
Speaker 3: a reason to have it. I like this, and I
Speaker 3: think we should write this next.
Speaker 2: We'd be pretty cool.
Speaker 1: The last little piece of research that I'll share with you, Candice,
Speaker 1: is that I did want to look up whether or
Speaker 1: not vaciline is good for the environment. I needed to
Speaker 1: know because it is a crude oil, or the at
Speaker 1: least byproduct of a crude oil. I wanted to see
Speaker 1: if there's any reflection on our environment. And it is
Speaker 1: pretty clear that it isn't the most good for our
Speaker 1: environment that vasoline, although it can be found in a
Speaker 1: lot of household products, it truly does come from the
Speaker 1: same things that are made in our oil spills and
Speaker 1: things that are extracted from the earth, and subsequently is
Speaker 1: not an ideal product, which did get me thinking. And
Speaker 1: you mentioned this earlier about the whole idea that even
Speaker 1: when we're being told that gasoline is limited and oil
Speaker 1: is where I have shortages, and now we never have
Speaker 1: a shortage of masoline, that feels like y'all are lying something.
Speaker 1: I'm dishonest, this is happening here, because if they're the
Speaker 1: same shit, then why the fuck don't we run out
Speaker 1: of basiline but we're constantly running out of everything else.
Speaker 4: Vasaline should be fifty dollars a pint.
Speaker 1: They don't ever up the prices either.
Speaker 2: They're never like y they don't make gasoline. We gotta
Speaker 2: up the.
Speaker 1: Prices because because of you know, fucking Syria or.
Speaker 3: Whatever is never changes, never changes.
Speaker 1: They lie.
Speaker 3: And also that also I do know that Native Americans
Speaker 3: discovered vasoline, not the petrol.
Speaker 1: Later.
Speaker 2: We use every part of the buffalo, including them greasy lips.
Speaker 1: They were like, squeeze out them greasy lips. We're gonna
Speaker 1: make something cool from this.
Speaker 2: Wait, what did they use it for?
Speaker 3: Skin protecting? Wound heel or skin protected? But then a
Speaker 3: white chemist basically got credit for it.
Speaker 2: Damn. I'd like to hope that that's what happened with
Speaker 2: the cherry curl too. And then actually there is like
Speaker 2: I guess, like Jack Dangels where it was like it
Speaker 2: was a black guy who made it right. It wasn't
Speaker 2: Jerry Riding it.
Speaker 1: Was it was Anthony Milwaukee was his name, and boy
Speaker 1: did he know what to do with a little bit
Speaker 1: of activator in the back of a shag.
Speaker 2: Damn. Well, if we did something.
Speaker 1: I do think we did something. It sounds like if
Speaker 1: if I were to land this plane at all, it
Speaker 1: sounds like we're all in agreement that asilene does have
Speaker 1: a place in our in our community and frankly our hearts,
Speaker 1: and we would be good to use it more often
Speaker 1: than maybe we even use it today. But we also
Speaker 1: should consider the terrible, terrible possibilities of of what it
Speaker 1: does to our our planet as we're using it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's good.
Speaker 3: Yes, they gonna keep drilling. As long as they keep drilling,
Speaker 3: this is gonna be a byproduct of the drilling, so
Speaker 3: we might as well use it.
Speaker 2: Lets use it. Yeah, I'm gonna gamble. Or's gonna give
Speaker 2: some Candice? Are you going to get some today?
Speaker 4: And I'm going to go back and get some more Tussy?
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, And I'm gonna buy the Best of Both
Speaker 3: Worlds album.
Speaker 1: I never I love that, I love that You're like today,
Speaker 1: of all days, I'm ready to get back into the
Speaker 1: Tussie and R Kelly's music not even his best work.
Speaker 1: I truly want to support him at his lowest.
Speaker 4: That is worth.
