Speaker 1: Mother Knows Dad starring Nicole and Jemmy and Maria qk Hi. Everyone.
Speaker 2: Welcome to Mother Knows Death. On today's episode, we're going
Speaker 2: to talk about a woman who suffered catastrophic burns using
Speaker 2: Meghan Markle's bath salt recipe and is now trying to
Speaker 2: sue her an update on a guy we talked about
Speaker 2: back in July who caused his kid to die in
Speaker 2: a hot car, and well how he just got back
Speaker 2: from a Maui vacation. We'll also talk about the viral
Speaker 2: photo that's going around showing a raccoon using what appears
Speaker 2: to be a meth pipe, a composer's brain making music
Speaker 2: after his death, and of course, leaving tampons in your
Speaker 2: badge for a year. All that and more on today's episode,
Speaker 2: Let's get started with this Megan Markle story. All right,
Speaker 2: So this girl is saying she watched Megan Markle's show
Speaker 2: on Netflix and was inspired to make her friend a
Speaker 2: gift when she saw Megan making these bath salts on
Speaker 2: the show. So she ended up copying the recipe from
Speaker 2: the show, which included epsom salt, Himalayan salt, arnica oil,
Speaker 2: and lavender oil and decided to test it out before
Speaker 2: giving it to her friend. Well, she ended up getting
Speaker 2: severe burns from the mixture, and now she's threatening to
Speaker 2: sue Megan for ten million dollars.
Speaker 1: This is such bullshit.
Speaker 2: Yeah, like for I mean, first of all, like, why
Speaker 2: would you even watch her show? It just seems leame,
Speaker 2: But okay, you decide to watch her show whatever, Like
Speaker 2: you're like honestly watching the show and taking notes to
Speaker 2: how to do this. I feel like this chick was
Speaker 2: sitting around and like, how could I see this person?
Speaker 2: I think it was a created story.
Speaker 1: I don't even like Megan Markle, and I'm gonna defend
Speaker 1: her in this story because this is absolutely ridiculous. It
Speaker 1: really is.
Speaker 2: Like, so this woman has diabetes, okay, which is very
Speaker 2: important to the story because anyone that has diabetes knows
Speaker 2: that you have to pay extra attention to your legs
Speaker 2: and your feet because of the increased risk of infections. Right,
Speaker 2: and you're not supposed to use EPs and salts again,
Speaker 2: something that every person with diabetes should know because it
Speaker 2: could dry out your skin and create cracks, which could
Speaker 2: cause bacteria that it's on your skin to get in there.
Speaker 2: And the problem is is that people have neuropathy, and
Speaker 2: neuropathy is when there is pathology in the nerves and
Speaker 2: sometimes you're not able to have sensation in your feet,
Speaker 2: so you can't tell if you're.
Speaker 1: Having a problem.
Speaker 2: It causes the increase in your blood sugar causes difficulty
Speaker 2: in healing. And this is exactly what happened like that.
Speaker 2: This is why they advise against it. She said that
Speaker 2: she got all of these complications, that she got sores
Speaker 2: and blisters on her legs that turned into ulcers. Because
Speaker 2: you have with the nerve damage and insufficient blood flow,
Speaker 2: it just makes it difficult to get for these wounds
Speaker 2: to heal.
Speaker 1: So she created these.
Speaker 2: Wounds using these epps and then of course they're not
Speaker 2: healing well because of the diabetes as well. I think
Speaker 2: a lot of people that have diabetes like, don't take
Speaker 2: this advice seriously. I remember my sister was dating a
Speaker 2: guy back when we were younger, when we were teenagers,
Speaker 2: and he had type one diabetes and just kept getting
Speaker 2: tattoos on his legs and they just like never healed right.
Speaker 2: He was always having issues like having to go on
Speaker 2: antibiotics and this and that to heal these things. And
Speaker 2: it's like it's very serious. You have to take it seriously.
Speaker 2: So if they say not to use epps and salts
Speaker 2: when you're diabetic, and you use them, I don't understand
Speaker 2: how that's Megan Markle's fault. Yeah, exactly, And like I
Speaker 2: don't even understand what she's trying to get her on
Speaker 2: like that saying the ingredients weren't right or something like
Speaker 2: you didn't follow the directions as you should have considering
Speaker 2: your medical condition. So what is the lawsuit against her?
Speaker 2: Like if she made an apple pie any were allergic.
Speaker 1: To apples, is it her fault? Yeah?
Speaker 2: I don't even understand. I don't even understand it, even
Speaker 2: if she didn't have diabetes and she had some kind
Speaker 2: of reaction to it like that, How is this Megan
Speaker 2: Markle's fault. I don't even understand. Like so and same here,
Speaker 2: like I think that she's insufferable to like I'm not
Speaker 2: interested in this show at all. I just think I'm
Speaker 2: overhearing about like boohoo, owes me with her. But like
Speaker 2: she's trying to say that, she's trying to say she
Speaker 2: wants seventy five thousand dollars to pay for her immediate
Speaker 2: medical bills and then an extra a minimum, and then
Speaker 2: ten What was the ten million about, because that's like
Speaker 2: a shit ton of money. So she wants ten million
Speaker 2: dollars from Megan marcle, Netflix and R twelve Productions for
Speaker 2: their quote reckless disregard for public safety and it's her
Speaker 2: similar conduct in the future. Get over yourself, she said,
Speaker 2: she's willing to settle in court. I bet you are,
Speaker 2: because this is a fake lawsuit. Yeah, what's wrong with
Speaker 2: the judiciary system in the United States because lawsuits like
Speaker 2: this should not be allowed. Yeah, because I think on
Speaker 2: that show she was also saying like, oh, like I
Speaker 2: put these mini pretzels in a bag for someone who
Speaker 2: sleeps over my house. Whatever she was talking about, Like, uh, okay,
Speaker 2: so if a person chokes on a pretzel, that's like
Speaker 2: her fault.
Speaker 1: Like the whole thing.
Speaker 2: You could say that about every single TV show that's
Speaker 2: ever been around about people that say they do certain things.
Speaker 2: It's just like, I don't, I don't even see the
Speaker 2: correlation here. It's it's and you're right, this is the
Speaker 2: reason that people think law suits are are are frivolous
Speaker 2: because of something like this, like you don't and I
Speaker 2: hope to god they don't even give this chick a dollar.
Speaker 1: No, I really hope not either.
Speaker 2: Like I I honestly want to say that this woman
Speaker 2: almost like induced this on herself on purpose, just so
Speaker 2: she could come up with a lawsuit to try to
Speaker 2: make a lot of money, or she.
Speaker 1: Something happened to her and she talked to some idiot
Speaker 1: that advised her to sue these people, which I don't
Speaker 1: even know how a lawyer took this on. I mean,
Speaker 1: it's just so ridiculous, Like she she has no claim
Speaker 1: she did it herself. She didn't. She didn't look into
Speaker 1: the ingredients herself, like Megan Markle is just not responsible
Speaker 1: for that. And Megan Marco didn't say make these bad
Speaker 1: salts or you're gonna get killed, Like she watched the show,
Speaker 1: she made the decision to make them, she didn't read
Speaker 1: the warning labels, and she has the content.
Speaker 2: I just I really don't believe that there's any person
Speaker 2: that's watching that show that's just like, oh, let me
Speaker 2: take some notes and do what she's saying to do.
Speaker 2: Like it just the whole story just doesn't even sound true.
Speaker 2: It's not like and like people are are they because
Speaker 2: it doesn't like I have really not heard anybody say
Speaker 2: that they that they like this show. I feel like
Speaker 2: they're getting viewers because people are like, is this chick
Speaker 2: serious right now?
Speaker 1: Also, she actually she's the first person in the world
Speaker 1: to sell like crushed flowers, to put as a garnish
Speaker 1: on things like Terrain's been selling that for over a decade,
Speaker 1: so relax, and people have been doing that forever. Martha
Speaker 1: Stewart's been doing shit like that forever. She thinks she's
Speaker 1: like the first Mark the Stewart, this innovative homemaker. Nobody
Speaker 1: takes you seriously and none of your stuff is creative.
Speaker 1: Let's move on in a less hater, maybe not a
Speaker 1: less hater attitude towards this thing with this composer, So
Speaker 1: Alvin Lucier, who's this legendary music composer. He died back
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty one. He was one of the first
Speaker 1: artists to use brain waves to compose music, and since
Speaker 1: his death, scientists have been able to create a lab
Speaker 1: grown brain from the composer's cells that essentially are creating
Speaker 1: new music. All Right, I'm gonna try to explain this
Speaker 1: to you guys as much as I understand it, and
Speaker 1: I'm not even sure I one hundred percent understand it.
Speaker 1: But here goes all right, So this is an art
Speaker 1: installation meets biotechnology, so you can actually go and see this.
Speaker 1: And there's tiny three D organs that are sealed and
Speaker 1: displayed on raised pedestals at this art gallery that resemble
Speaker 1: developing human brains. There's like these little tiny brains and
Speaker 1: their activity of these cells are sending signals to mallets
Speaker 1: that strike these these brass plates and it sends ambient
Speaker 1: sound that goes throughout the gallery. So it's not really technically,
Speaker 1: like I don't really know how to explain this.
Speaker 2: You have your brain and your cells and it's just
Speaker 2: there and they are his cells that are sending this music,
Speaker 2: but it's not him as a conscious being sending this music.
Speaker 2: So does that make sense? I feel like it's really
Speaker 2: hard to understand.
Speaker 1: So yeah.
Speaker 2: So they so he was into this, and he donated
Speaker 2: his blood when he was like eighty nine years old
Speaker 2: to get this done because he was into the idea
Speaker 2: of this. And from there they commissioned a Harvard Medical
Speaker 2: School research program to turn his blood, get the white
Speaker 2: blood cells out of his blood and turn them into
Speaker 2: stem cells, which are capable of differentiating into various types
Speaker 2: of specialized cells so they could they could be specialized
Speaker 2: for brain cells. And then they got a neuroscientist and
Speaker 2: grew neurono structures on top of mesh electrodes that are
Speaker 2: able to both send signals and receive signals, So the
Speaker 2: organs don't just produce sound, but they also receive it.
Speaker 2: But the whole thing is is that so this is
Speaker 2: actual like brain cells and brain tissue working, but it's
Speaker 2: not actually like this guy consciously like sending these signals.
Speaker 2: It's just kind of like an electron like an electronic response,
Speaker 2: almost similar to like I don't know, let's say sometimes
Speaker 2: if you cut off someone's leg or something like, the
Speaker 2: muscle will still be twitching. Kind of It's like the
Speaker 2: muscle cells are are technically still working and twitching, but
Speaker 2: it's not your brain making the muscle move. I don't
Speaker 2: know if that if that makes it more clear. So
Speaker 2: I guess it's a step in. Like first of all,
Speaker 2: I sit here and I'm just like why are we
Speaker 2: doing this? Like what is the point of this? A
Speaker 2: lot of things are like let's see what scientists could
Speaker 2: do because the world's endless, but like I don't really
Speaker 2: see how this is going to end well and be
Speaker 2: a positive but whatever. People could do whatever they want
Speaker 2: to do. I guess a lot of it questions because
Speaker 2: you know, there's all this like AI stuff, right, and
Speaker 2: people get in like but hurt about it because they
Speaker 2: think it's going to impact their livelihoods and things like that,
Speaker 2: where other people are just like, all right, well, let
Speaker 2: me see how I could use this to my advantage.
Speaker 2: So it's not really it's not really going on those lines,
Speaker 2: because these cells don't really have any intention, like if
Speaker 2: this music is being put out, and even if it's great,
Speaker 2: it's not really like that guy thinking of it. It's
Speaker 2: just like his cells actually just making the sound, which
Speaker 2: I would think based on this, if you took blood
Speaker 2: from me and did the same exact thing and made
Speaker 2: this little mini brain and all that stuff, probably make
Speaker 2: the same exact sounds, if that makes sense. Because it's
Speaker 2: just brain cells. I don't know if it's specific to
Speaker 2: like your your imagination and your consciousness.
Speaker 1: I mean, I think this just stems back to the
Speaker 1: conversation we were having yesterday about Twitter and how when
Speaker 1: they first made it they didn't really realize like, of
Speaker 1: course somebody could use it for evil. So I think
Speaker 1: we see things that are really cool that could come
Speaker 1: out of it, like this installation in Australia. But then
Speaker 1: you know, inevitably somebody's gonna use this for something horrible,
Speaker 1: especially the more advanced it gets, So we just have
Speaker 1: to think of things like that. Yeah, because like right
Speaker 1: now where it stands, I'm not sure that anybody. I mean,
Speaker 1: this technology could be great for helping certain disease prosties
Speaker 1: use for sure, but I'm not sure where it's going
Speaker 1: and what they're trying to do with it. But like them,
Speaker 1: some of the language they use in the article, I
Speaker 1: don't really like of them saying like you know, an
Speaker 1: artist could go on to live and you're just like nah, dude,
Speaker 1: Like why don't you just let people die? That's where
Speaker 1: we make room for new people, and like that's it,
Speaker 1: Like that's why you shouldn't ethically, how are we continuing
Speaker 1: to make artwork? And like who's getting compensation from that?
Speaker 1: I mean, there's like a million things, and.
Speaker 2: It's just it's just kind of like, dude, that you
Speaker 2: get plenty of time on this earth. If you use
Speaker 2: it wisely to do stuff and make your mark in
Speaker 2: the world, you just don't need nobody needs to live
Speaker 2: on forever like that. So I understand why some people
Speaker 2: are like having an issue with it because it just
Speaker 2: it's it's the same thing as like cryogenics and all
Speaker 2: that stuff too, Like it's just kind of like use
Speaker 2: your time here on earth wisely. And and then that's
Speaker 2: how I look at it. I'm not I'm not into
Speaker 2: like a lot of this this certain stuff because I
Speaker 2: feel like it could just it could just get bad
Speaker 2: one day. I mean, if you're able to really, at
Speaker 2: some point in the future mimic someone's brain completely then
Speaker 2: and and like they have this guy's consent, but he
Speaker 2: doesn't even know what technology is possible at some point,
Speaker 2: do you want them to just be able to like
Speaker 2: grow brains and make art and not even have an
Speaker 2: actual human attached to it. It's just it's just kind
Speaker 2: of like, Okay, why don't we just stop?
Speaker 1: So are you saying if he dies, he dies? Then
Speaker 1: if he dies, he dies? Well. The thing is too,
Speaker 1: is that.
Speaker 2: There's there's something happening right now with like art and
Speaker 2: the arts in general, that there are a lot I
Speaker 2: know a lot of great artists and stuff, but there's
Speaker 2: also like not a lot of great artists. There's not
Speaker 2: a lot of great musicians. There's not a lot of
Speaker 2: great people making movies. It seems like they're trying to
Speaker 2: like rehash like all this other stuff of like old composers,
Speaker 2: old artists, old musicians and things like that, right, and
Speaker 2: old movies, like you go to the movies, there's like
Speaker 2: no new ideas. It's just like, oh, well, let's see
Speaker 2: how we could get back the old stuff.
Speaker 1: Well, it was successful because we didn't have technology or
Speaker 1: as many things in life distracting us, and people were
Speaker 1: working to excel at something. I mean, I think, you know,
Speaker 1: I had said before, like we don't often see great
Speaker 1: painters anymore, like Michaelangelo or Da Vinci or somebody like that,
Speaker 1: because there was nothing to do back then, and these
Speaker 1: people could really take all their time and excel at
Speaker 1: doing a craft like that, and that is just going away.
Speaker 2: Yeah, And that's that's the thing. Like when you take
Speaker 2: boredom away from people, then you take creativity away from
Speaker 2: people to a certain extent. And it's really sad actually,
Speaker 2: because I do think about that even with my kids,
Speaker 2: with the little kids, you know, when they're because it
Speaker 2: wasn't as much of a problem with you because you're
Speaker 2: you know, you didn't have a device as much as
Speaker 2: as they have access to now. But you just think,
Speaker 2: like I learned some of my greatest crafting and just
Speaker 2: my skills as a human just being very bored a lot.
Speaker 2: And I'm intending to do that with them this summer.
Speaker 2: They're going to have a lot of bored.
Speaker 1: Time, because that's how you figure out what you are
Speaker 1: into and what you like. Yeah, and my new cousin,
Speaker 1: Leila Rabtopolis wrote a really good article for The Financial
Speaker 1: Times last year called being Bored is a Good Thing,
Speaker 1: and I think everybody should read it because it's good
Speaker 1: for your health at the end of the day, just
Speaker 1: like having nothing to do sometimes. This episode is brought
Speaker 1: to you by the Gross Room. All right, guys, so
Speaker 1: this week's high Profile. That's this section is part two
Speaker 1: on the Lori Value Chad Dave Bell murders, and this
Speaker 1: one we really get into the autopsies of the four
Speaker 1: main victims, so check that out. We also decided that
Speaker 1: we're going to start doing a weekly post in the
Speaker 1: Gross Room and adding all of the stories that we
Speaker 1: didn't get to on the podcast, because I don't know
Speaker 1: if You guys realize this, but these stories are just
Speaker 1: like never ending every every single week and we just
Speaker 1: can't get to We don't have enough time to get
Speaker 1: to all of them. So we'll put the ones that
Speaker 1: didn't make the episodes in this post so you guys
Speaker 1: could check that out. Also talking about penis injections and
Speaker 1: more so to check out the Grosserroom. Yeah, head over
Speaker 1: to the groscerroom dot com now to sign up.
Speaker 2: All right, let's talk about this this scumbag dude. Last year,
Speaker 2: we reported on this dad who left his daughter in
Speaker 2: a hot car while he played video games inside and
Speaker 2: she ended up dying. It was one hundred and nine
Speaker 2: degrees in Arizona that day, so he had been charged
Speaker 2: with felony first degree murder and child abuse and somehow
Speaker 2: got approved to go on a Hawaiian vacation with the
Speaker 2: rest of his family while he awaits the trial. Didn't
Speaker 2: we get into like a fight because I said, like,
Speaker 2: what grown adult loser is playing video games while his
Speaker 2: wife is a doctor at work, and you were trying
Speaker 2: to tell me that he wasn't a loser.
Speaker 1: Or I did. First of all, I didn't say he
Speaker 1: wasn't a loser. I just like I think people plenty
Speaker 1: of adult men play video games and they aren't killing
Speaker 1: their kids in cars. Like, so there is a world
Speaker 1: in which you can be an adult and blow off
Speaker 1: some steam and play video games, but you have you're
Speaker 1: responsible at the same time. Unlike this person who left
Speaker 1: his kid in a car to die because he said
Speaker 1: she was taking a nap and he left her in
Speaker 1: the car, didn't want to disturb her, and he left
Speaker 1: the ac on. But like most modern cars, the car
Speaker 1: automatically shuts off even though it's running after thirty minutes,
Speaker 1: So that's exactly what happened.
Speaker 2: Yeah, loser anyway, Like, I'm sorry you don't you don't
Speaker 2: have like when your when your wife's at work and
Speaker 2: you're in charge your babysitting your kids. You know my
Speaker 2: favorite term, when you're in charge of of three little kids.
Speaker 2: Didn't they have three kids a two year old, a
Speaker 2: five year old, and a nine year old or something
Speaker 2: like you're you're not playing video games, Like that's that's
Speaker 2: not happening, that's that's ridiculous.
Speaker 1: But well, but the first offense is that, like who
Speaker 1: leaves a kid at all in a car unattended? Like
Speaker 1: let's start right there. I'm responsible right there.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I like, I don't know when when the kids
Speaker 2: are little and stuff, it's like you do think about
Speaker 2: you tiptoe around the fact that you don't want them
Speaker 2: to you want them to take their naps and you
Speaker 2: don't want them to wake up and things like that.
Speaker 2: But this guy's living in Arizona and it's so hot outside.
Speaker 1: Wasn't it like one hundred and nine degrees or one
Speaker 1: of those crazy days. They're like, well, I don't think
Speaker 1: that's a crazy day there. I think that's an average
Speaker 1: day in Arizona.
Speaker 2: Well, I also believe, and I'm not I might be
Speaker 2: mistaken with this, but when the car is just in
Speaker 2: park and the air conditioning's on, or especially if it's
Speaker 2: in that you know, like you could push the button
Speaker 2: and start your car from inside the house, that's not
Speaker 2: like really fully doing the air conditioner as much as
Speaker 2: it is when you're driving in the car around. So
Speaker 2: I just think even sitting there, even if the air
Speaker 2: was on, it just would be way too hot between
Speaker 2: the windows and everything else. That just the sun beating
Speaker 2: on the car. But regardless, this is this is what
Speaker 2: I'm really concerned about. So he's been charged with felony
Speaker 2: first degree murder or in child abuse for the death
Speaker 2: of his two year old daughter. Right why Like why
Speaker 2: is he not even in jail right now?
Speaker 1: Well, he's probably out on bail, and like, I don't
Speaker 1: think he should be allowed to go out of this day.
Speaker 1: I mean, wouldn't you consider somebody to be a flight
Speaker 1: risk that's charged with first degree murder and child abuse?
Speaker 1: And so they're like, you can go, but you have
Speaker 1: to contact pre trial services while you're there. And he
Speaker 1: was also ordered to have no unsupervised contact with the
Speaker 1: children while I'm the vacation, Like, okay, it's monitoring. Why
Speaker 1: is this woman married to this loser? Still? I'm serious,
Speaker 1: Like this is a serious question, Like this dude, how
Speaker 1: you could get over this.
Speaker 2: Dude killed your kid and the court is telling you
Speaker 2: that he's not allowed to be alone with your other kids? Like,
Speaker 2: how are you even having an orgasm with this dude
Speaker 2: right now?
Speaker 1: Tell me please? Like what is the talking of vacation
Speaker 1: with this person? How are you even going on vacation
Speaker 1: right now? Like, I just I just don't understand any
Speaker 1: of it. You're like, your.
Speaker 2: Your kid's been dead less than a year because your
Speaker 2: husband was was in charge of that, and you're going
Speaker 2: on vacation in Maui right now, Like the whole entire
Speaker 2: thing is. It's it's so bizarre to me, But I
Speaker 2: have so we have a case in the gross room
Speaker 2: called Imagine the Unimaginable and it's about a hot car
Speaker 2: death and it and and what happens to a child
Speaker 2: and they it is it's really really disturbing. What happens.
Speaker 2: Thermal damage to the skin, brain and lung congestion, uh,
Speaker 2: hemorrhages in the skin, circulatory fail your respiratory failure, heat stroke, hyperthermia.
Speaker 2: It's really really, really terrible, like dying in that way.
Speaker 2: And and after this particular death happened there, they went
Speaker 2: through their phones and he the wife had texted him quote,
Speaker 2: I told you to stop leaving them in the car.
Speaker 2: How how many times have I told you?
Speaker 1: Who's leaving their kid in the car? I understand you
Speaker 1: don't want to wake them up, but let's take away
Speaker 1: hot car deaths, like they could get out and get
Speaker 1: seriously hurt. That way, somebody could take them. There's a
Speaker 1: million things that could go wrong. Why would you ever
Speaker 1: consider it? I don't because you have video games to play.
Speaker 1: I don't know. Well, that's where I think you could
Speaker 1: come in and be judgmental about the video games, because
Speaker 1: I think there's like, we know plenty of responsible fathers
Speaker 1: that play video games and that haven't had issues. And
Speaker 1: you see this guy who's leaving his car to his
Speaker 1: daughter to die in a hot car because he's so
Speaker 1: preoccupied with playing them and doesn't realize that hours had
Speaker 1: gone by that she was in there. I think the
Speaker 1: problem is, like your first habit is you shouldn't be
Speaker 1: leaving them unattended in the car, and then you're going
Speaker 1: in and getting distracted by something. It's ridiculous.
Speaker 2: Okay, So police have posted a photo that an officer
Speaker 2: took at a very unusual traffic pullover situation recently.
Speaker 1: All right, Yeah, police pulled over this car that had
Speaker 1: an active warrant in a suspended driver's license. So he
Speaker 1: approaches the car, finds this fifty five year old woman
Speaker 1: and detains her, no problem. But then he goes back
Speaker 1: to the car there's this raccoon sitting in the driver's
Speaker 1: seat with a meth pipe in its mouth.
Speaker 2: Could you this is just like added to the list
Speaker 2: of like weird things officers come across all the time.
Speaker 2: You would never expect to see just a raccoon in
Speaker 2: someone's car in general, because they're not typically animals that
Speaker 2: are pets, Like you see a dog, a cat maybe
Speaker 2: or something, but like a raccoon, no holding a meth
Speaker 2: like a crack pipe or whatever. Like it's just hilarious.
Speaker 2: The guy was probably like, couldn't reach his pocket fast
Speaker 2: enough to get his phone to take a picture of this,
Speaker 2: because like, you wouldn't even believe that your eyes were
Speaker 2: seeing that right now. Nobody would ever believe you.
Speaker 1: No, nobody would ever believe you. But the meth pipe
Speaker 1: ended up causing police to further search the car, where
Speaker 1: they found bulk come ount of meth, crack cocaine, and
Speaker 1: three used glass meth pipes. It's really funny because this
Speaker 1: raccoon is not a wild raccoon, it's a pet raccoon.
Speaker 1: So seemingly the only responsible thing this lady did was
Speaker 1: get their appropriate paperwork to own him.
Speaker 2: This lady's out of her mind. Imagine she's fifty five,
Speaker 2: and imagine just deciding you're gonna have a raccoon as
Speaker 2: a pet, and then like really going through all the
Speaker 2: legal things. I mean, but it like it really screams
Speaker 2: that she's that she's on crack, right, Like, well, it.
Speaker 1: Clearly she was doing meth based on what's going on
Speaker 1: in the car, so like, of course, somebody that's on
Speaker 1: drugs like that isn't making rational decisions. I just find
Speaker 1: it funny that she went through all the proper channels
Speaker 1: to get paperwork for the raccoon. Meanwhile, she this lady
Speaker 1: is an interesting character, for sure, she really is. And
Speaker 1: the raccoon is okay at the end of the ordeal,
Speaker 1: and its name was Chewy.
Speaker 2: Do you remember that time momm told us that she
Speaker 2: saw a raccoon in the kitchen.
Speaker 1: Well, I was believer, this is one hundred percent of
Speaker 1: beth Qualterry story. Well, she's not on math that we
Speaker 1: know of, not that we know of, even though I
Speaker 1: took that picture of her. I just said it to
Speaker 1: her this morning, Which is so funny that this is
Speaker 1: coming up. We were in LA this time last year
Speaker 1: and she sees on the back of a sign somebody
Speaker 1: wrote in sharpie I love meth, and she goes take
Speaker 1: my picture with it. That's great, Maybe I'll post it
Speaker 1: on the story. I was like, what is wrong with you?
Speaker 1: It probably is.
Speaker 2: I don't know, but yeah, oh, speaking of meth too.
Speaker 2: I think we decided that we are going to call
Speaker 2: our listeners death heads because I don't know. We haven't
Speaker 2: talked to Gabe about it, and this weekend I was
Speaker 2: just like, dude, I don't know. He said something about oh,
Speaker 2: because we were walking in the city and someone saw
Speaker 2: me and talked to me that knew me, and he said, look,
Speaker 2: you have fan Jemmy, and I said, actually, we're looking
Speaker 2: to change the name to death heads. And then he
Speaker 2: busted out laughing when I said that, And then I
Speaker 2: was like, no, really, we're not doing that because it's
Speaker 2: too close to.
Speaker 1: Like meth head and and like deadheads. And he was like, no,
Speaker 1: it's perfect. You have to use it. So and we
Speaker 1: trust his opinion. So that's where we're at there. We
Speaker 1: liked your other submissions that where were some of the
Speaker 1: other submissions. I liked when you guys said little spleens
Speaker 1: because of that story we had the day both the
Speaker 1: cute little spleens. Yeah, and what was the other Oh,
Speaker 1: somebody said that we're always saying things were outrageous, so
Speaker 1: outragees that was funny.
Speaker 2: Yeah, listen, I'm sorry but if we're talking about a
Speaker 2: cop that takes a picture of a raccoon with a
Speaker 2: with a meth pipe in its mouth, like everything is outrageous.
Speaker 1: The next story we have is outrageous. Every story we
Speaker 1: tell the story about mom, Mom's tell momm's raccoon story.
Speaker 1: Though she just.
Speaker 2: Said we were all I don't know if we were
Speaker 2: all home whatever, we were sitting on the couch and
Speaker 2: she went out to the kitchen and she said that
Speaker 2: there was a raccoon that was just sitting out in
Speaker 2: the kitchen and then like cereal. It was like eating
Speaker 2: cereal or something out of a box. And then like
Speaker 2: we all went out there, we like searched the whole house.
Speaker 2: There's like no raccoon, and we're like, see, maybe she
Speaker 2: has a past history of math. This is this is
Speaker 2: all making sense now. We're like, we're like, that didn't happen.
Speaker 2: But to her defense, there was I think in one
Speaker 2: of the downstairs bedrooms. The window was open and there
Speaker 2: was no screen on it. So they're in theory like
Speaker 2: something could have climbed in and been in an out
Speaker 2: I don't, I mean in theory, but we just always
Speaker 2: buster o balls because we're like dude, there was no
Speaker 2: raccoon in the house.
Speaker 1: Nobody saw it. Well, me and Detie were talking to
Speaker 1: her on Sunday, and she was also telling us about
Speaker 1: like all the car accidents she's been in, which is
Speaker 1: like insane that she's been in so many And then
Speaker 1: we're like, well, one did give you that amnesius, like
Speaker 1: maybe that she has some kind of like permanent head
Speaker 1: trauma or something. She definitely seems like she does. She's
Speaker 1: gonna love listening to this lader get. I can't wait
Speaker 1: to get the call about this one later.
Speaker 2: I know she's always sending us a text like, oh,
Speaker 2: thanks for talking about me. I'm like, mom, you're like
Speaker 2: endless material.
Speaker 1: Please, we have to have her on sooner or later, because,
Speaker 1: like everybody will understand the second she starts talking, I know,
Speaker 1: we do have to have her on. We have to
Speaker 1: figure out how to do that because I don't know
Speaker 1: that she'd be able to handle the zoom situation. No
Speaker 1: I will. Yeah, we probably have to do it in person,
Speaker 1: or we could get her microphone and I could have
Speaker 1: somebody over there set it up for her.
Speaker 2: We'll say, all right, let's talk about now this. This
Speaker 2: last story is a woman's greatest fere, which is forgetting
Speaker 2: to take a tampon out.
Speaker 1: So two years ago, this woman who was then twenty
Speaker 1: eight now she's thirty, started developing severe pelvic pain. As usual,
Speaker 1: doctors blew it off as a UTI kept dismissing her
Speaker 1: as having low pain tolerance or they said she was
Speaker 1: being over dramatic. She was brushed off by a ton
Speaker 1: of doctors. So then four months after she first reported
Speaker 1: the pain, they finally did a vaginal exam and found
Speaker 1: a tampon in her vagina that had been there for
Speaker 1: possibly over a year.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so apparently she had an IUD put in about
Speaker 2: a year ago and then ever since then she didn't
Speaker 2: really get her period, so she kind of remembers the
Speaker 2: last time that she wore a tampon. And this happens
Speaker 2: so many times that you wouldn't believe it. We actually
Speaker 2: have a post in the grosser room that's called super
Speaker 2: Gross Absorbancy. You guys could just search that in the
Speaker 2: search bar and look it up and see what this
Speaker 2: actually looks like when it's taken out. But it was
Speaker 2: a woman in a similar situation that had a tampon
Speaker 2: up there for a long time and there's seventy eight
Speaker 2: comments underneath of that post that say all different situations
Speaker 2: of women who either experienced it or who are nurses
Speaker 2: who experienced it at work as well. You have their
Speaker 2: vaginal fornix, which is like around the cervix, and it's
Speaker 2: a little pocket. You could store stuff up in there
Speaker 2: if you really wanted to. You could put money up there,
Speaker 2: you could put whatever. And if you had sex, like you,
Speaker 2: you might not really feel it. And the problem with
Speaker 2: the tampon is it gets jammed up there every single
Speaker 2: time you were having sex and could It's cotton and
Speaker 2: it gets compacted and just jammed up there. But it
Speaker 2: can get become infected. Obviously most of you have heard
Speaker 2: of toxic shock syndrome. That is a bacterial infection that
Speaker 2: could be caused by strap bacteria or staff bacteria, and
Speaker 2: it could become very serious like a sudden high fever,
Speaker 2: a low blood pressure, headache, seizure, and sometimes it could
Speaker 2: it could go to renal failure and death septic shock.
Speaker 2: I she says that she was treated for septic shock
Speaker 2: after this. I don't or for toxic shock syndrome. I
Speaker 2: don't think that she had that because she had it
Speaker 2: in there for a year that they commonly like when
Speaker 2: they see a person's having symptoms and then they find
Speaker 2: a tampon stuck up there, they're like, holy shit, we're
Speaker 2: gonna treat you for toxic shock syndrome. But like that's
Speaker 2: not really how it would present. Like you would know
Speaker 2: if you had it, trust me, because you get very sick,
Speaker 2: very fast, and you're hospitalized and it's it's terrible infection.
Speaker 2: So a lot of times people experience like a foul
Speaker 2: smelling discharge. This the one in the gross room, the
Speaker 2: woman was having a greenish discharge that was foul smelling.
Speaker 2: All of them usually present with some kind of pelvic pain.
Speaker 2: So the biggest risk is a lot of times, usually
Speaker 2: like when women are at their end of their period
Speaker 2: and they kind of like forget to take the last
Speaker 2: one out or something like that. That seems to be
Speaker 2: the most common time it happens. So, which is possible
Speaker 2: when this woman had the EUD, like she stopped bleeding
Speaker 2: and then she just kind of used it and forgot.
Speaker 2: I personally think like I would know it just because
Speaker 2: like I when I used to bleed like that, I
Speaker 2: used to use like these big, huge tampons that I
Speaker 2: used to call dildo tampons because they were so big,
Speaker 2: like there's no way of not knowing it's there. They
Speaker 2: tell you like depending on how you're bleeding, that you
Speaker 2: should use a lesser absorbency one, but most women that
Speaker 2: have given vaginal childbirth know that like a little pencil
Speaker 2: thin tampon is not staying up in your vege Like
Speaker 2: it's not happening. No, you could like shoot that thing
Speaker 2: right out if you push, like so it's it's like
Speaker 2: I for me, like that's how I'm just like I
Speaker 2: can't imagine this happening. But I can imagine if you're
Speaker 2: a woman who uses these thin ones and they're very
Speaker 2: small and you just like don't remember it or whatever,
Speaker 2: but it everyone under the post in the gross room
Speaker 2: is like, oh my god, this is my biggest fear
Speaker 2: of this, that and the other. But it happens more
Speaker 2: often than you would think. And I got one in
Speaker 2: surgical pathology once from an elderly woman and it was
Speaker 2: up there for years and it was so disturbing looking
Speaker 2: and it just smelled awful, just awful, awful, awful.
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, you when we have emy lockren on, it
Speaker 1: had to be one of our first external exams back
Speaker 1: in either November December of twenty twenty three. You guys
Speaker 1: had talked about that too. You have got a couple
Speaker 1: of cases of tampa and said, we're smelling oh oh god.
Speaker 1: I don't know. She luckily she made a full recovery,
Speaker 1: but she doesn't think she would have if she didn't
Speaker 1: push for it, which is, you know, you have to
Speaker 1: be the advocate for an advocate for yourself, because we
Speaker 1: talk about so many stories where doctors just blow people off,
Speaker 1: and if you know something's not right with your body,
Speaker 1: you need to push for it. You know, it's nuts.
Speaker 2: She had said in this article that she had a
Speaker 2: papsmerror since then, and I'm just like, how are they
Speaker 2: not like looking up there?
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know because I've never given someone
Speaker 2: a pap smear, so I don't know the full view
Speaker 2: of what they're looking at. So I don't want to
Speaker 2: say that. And actually the physician who discovered it said
Speaker 2: that some tissue in her vagina had like slightly grown
Speaker 2: over it, so they thought initially that it might have
Speaker 2: been like an endometriosis, lesion or something, And then they
Speaker 2: were looking at it and they're like, wait a second,
Speaker 2: They're like picking at it and they're like, oh my god,
Speaker 2: this is a freaking tampon.
Speaker 1: I can't even imagine finding something like that.
Speaker 2: I know I would be It's great. It's good though,
Speaker 2: because like all her symptoms have gone away since. I mean,
Speaker 2: when you have a foreign body inside of your body,
Speaker 2: your body knows it and it tries to attack it,
Speaker 2: and it acts differently on different people. But that's why
Speaker 2: her body was kind of freaking out because it knew
Speaker 2: it was there. And that's why you should listen to
Speaker 2: your body when like something weird like that's happening.
