I have a few. 55 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 1: I got a couple of them, and uh, I mean, 56 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:46,000 Speaker 1: just get ready to run me my check when I want. Yeah. No, 57 00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:48,520 Speaker 1: that's I don't like to say him either, because you dropped. 58 00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:50,960 Speaker 1: You dropped the idea, and then next thing, you know, 59 00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:56,360 Speaker 1: everybody's wearing you know, Gucci sweatpants or whatever was my idea. Okay, 60 00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:58,240 Speaker 1: I had a feeling that that might have been you 61 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 1: that did the Gucci sweatpant. It combines my two loves, 62 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:09,760 Speaker 1: luxury and sweat. Wasn't that a Nelly album? Wasn't It 63 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 1: wasn't suit because there's two different Nellies. You know, you 64 00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:26,240 Speaker 1: always associated Nelly with suits before this. It's wet, he 65 00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:28,600 Speaker 1: seems very athletic. I bet he doesn't sweat a lot 66 00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:32,360 Speaker 1: at all. No, Maggie, I know none of this has 67 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:35,480 Speaker 1: anything to do with the conspiracy theory you came to 68 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:39,160 Speaker 1: us today, but I'm very excited to dig into it. 69 00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:43,120 Speaker 1: It might be, i'd argue, maybe one of the vaguest 70 00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:47,839 Speaker 1: conspiracy theories we've ever dealt in. Truly, it means nothing, 71 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:52,040 Speaker 1: but also I think has such a a large, powerful meaning. 72 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:54,040 Speaker 1: So I can't wait to hear your thoughts on this. 73 00:04:54,400 --> 00:05:00,240 Speaker 1: You said, my mama told me the left hand. It's 74 00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:10,479 Speaker 1: Bay tell us more. It's just there are so many 75 00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:14,760 Speaker 1: different I wouldn't even say conspiracy theories. I'd say superstitions 76 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:19,360 Speaker 1: surrounding the left hand. And I talked with my siblings 77 00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:22,040 Speaker 1: before coming on because I was like, what exactly like 78 00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:25,880 Speaker 1: remind me all the different stuff that we heard as kids, 79 00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:28,480 Speaker 1: and all the different things, And the one that kept 80 00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:31,800 Speaker 1: coming up was left hand, Like if you I know 81 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:36,120 Speaker 1: that the left hand in general is just unlucky, Like 82 00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:41,680 Speaker 1: let's wash him mouth. Some of us are left handed here. Well, 83 00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:45,400 Speaker 1: I mean it's not encouraged. Like my brother's left handed, 84 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:49,400 Speaker 1: but he's now ambidextrous because they heavily encouraged him to 85 00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 1: use his right hand. For my grandmother, So your brother 86 00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:56,480 Speaker 1: was using his left hand and then your grandmother, I 87 00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,080 Speaker 1: think you said, was coming in and what what was 88 00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:03,200 Speaker 1: she doing to encourage this? Just really encouraging him to 89 00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 1: because he like favors his left side, like he plays soccer, 90 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 1: he favors that side and everything, and so they had 91 00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:12,200 Speaker 1: him learned to write with his right hand as well. 92 00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:15,800 Speaker 1: So you know, I don't know if it was like 93 00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:17,839 Speaker 1: this is the right hand to write with or whatever, 94 00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:20,800 Speaker 1: but they just like really discouraged him from like using 95 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:23,520 Speaker 1: his left hand nowadays, like he uses that he used both, 96 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:26,720 Speaker 1: but like it was kind of a thing that they 97 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:30,080 Speaker 1: didn't really want him to be a lefty because that's 98 00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:31,960 Speaker 1: just and he was the one who told me it 99 00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:35,559 Speaker 1: was like apparently if you pay somebody with your left hand, 100 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:38,599 Speaker 1: or you receive money with your left hand, that means 101 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:45,320 Speaker 1: you're being dishonest. Whoa is this a Texas I think 102 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:49,520 Speaker 1: it's a Nigerian thing. Yeah, because I didn't grow up 103 00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:51,719 Speaker 1: around a lot of black people. It was usually just 104 00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:53,960 Speaker 1: me and my family who were the black people in 105 00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 1: the school, So like there wasn't anybody that I could 106 00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:59,839 Speaker 1: go and ask, like, hey, does I knew? You know, 107 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,560 Speaker 1: neither white kids weren't gonna get any kind of specialized 108 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:06,360 Speaker 1: education and conspiracies or anything like that. They were just 109 00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:09,480 Speaker 1: gonna let that ship happen. But it's like I have 110 00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:12,240 Speaker 1: to assume there's also something dangerous and being the only 111 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:14,240 Speaker 1: black person and you go, hey, is this the thing 112 00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 1: at your house? And they go, no, nigger, that's a you, 113 00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:22,960 Speaker 1: that's a y'all things. And now it's a black thing 114 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:25,600 Speaker 1: for a bunch of white people that didn't previously know 115 00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:28,360 Speaker 1: you were doing ship, and now they all think we're 116 00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:31,960 Speaker 1: not left handed. Yeah, all the white kids were like 117 00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:34,440 Speaker 1: absolutely not. And then I met black kids later and 118 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:40,240 Speaker 1: they were like absolutely not. This is so I'm left 119 00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 1: handed and they tried to teach me to write right handed. 120 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 1: So I feel it didn't work because I'm stupid, But 121 00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:51,840 Speaker 1: I feel I feel for your brother greatly. Does he 122 00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:55,320 Speaker 1: was it? Like, is your grandma, Like did she ever explain? 123 00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:57,960 Speaker 1: Why was she like, oh no, don't write with that 124 00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:02,120 Speaker 1: hand because then you'll never get married. I mean, I'm 125 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:06,760 Speaker 1: sure she explained to him, And um, I guess he 126 00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:08,480 Speaker 1: just did it because he's a kid, and you know, 127 00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 1: he's my brother's like hella smart, so he could just 128 00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:14,080 Speaker 1: figure anything out that he wants to. But like, yeah, 129 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:17,960 Speaker 1: he's not a dumb dumb like you boy, he out Listen? 130 00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 1: Is your whole family right handed? Like what's the percentage 131 00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:24,160 Speaker 1: of left handers in your family? My brother is the 132 00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:26,480 Speaker 1: only lefty? And then how many are there of you? 133 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:39,280 Speaker 1: It's five kids and just my dad? Oh man, is 134 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:43,400 Speaker 1: everybody else doing some something cool science related or or 135 00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:47,440 Speaker 1: achievement related. I guess is a better way of saying. Yeah. 136 00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:51,280 Speaker 1: Like my sister and her husband. Her husband's a doctor 137 00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:54,040 Speaker 1: and so they own a bunch of freestanding emergency rooms 138 00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:59,000 Speaker 1: and then um like urgent cares. Yeah, well there. I 139 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:01,480 Speaker 1: think they're actually like free extant because he's an emergency 140 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:05,400 Speaker 1: room doctors, So they're like freestanding emergency rooms that you 141 00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:07,800 Speaker 1: could go to. And I think a lot of them 142 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:11,760 Speaker 1: are in like towns in Texas where the hospitals are 143 00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:15,839 Speaker 1: not that you know. So it's like, if they've got 144 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 1: the one hospital and that's all you can do for 145 00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:20,720 Speaker 1: an emergency, then at least have like a free standing 146 00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 1: emergency room, so you have an option. That makes me. 147 00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:26,400 Speaker 1: I didn't know that it was possible to have a 148 00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:29,840 Speaker 1: free standing emergency room until you explained it that way, 149 00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:32,840 Speaker 1: because otherwise it just sounds like they had like trucks, 150 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:34,720 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, like food trucks. But you 151 00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:41,080 Speaker 1: could get your like a wamby lance the round whose 152 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:43,760 Speaker 1: heart I was imagining, just like a tent in the 153 00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:46,760 Speaker 1: park where you could go if you like, we're breathing funny, yeah, 154 00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:53,680 Speaker 1: like a real free standing kind yeah yeah, yeah, like 155 00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:56,440 Speaker 1: emergency room pop up. Yeah, but at least come by 156 00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:58,600 Speaker 1: and they're like, hey, move it, buddy, you know, like 157 00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:01,839 Speaker 1: I'm literally setting almost life. Yeah, you gotta get out 158 00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:05,120 Speaker 1: of it, just selling someone up. Do you have permits 159 00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:11,080 Speaker 1: for this? Okay? So so success is in your family, 160 00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:15,520 Speaker 1: but not necessarily everybody being doctors. Do you still believe 161 00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:18,839 Speaker 1: or did you ever believe? Maybe that's a better way 162 00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:22,200 Speaker 1: of framing this question. Did you ever believe in your 163 00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 1: grandmother's suggestion of the left hand being bad, not really, 164 00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:33,560 Speaker 1: because there were a lot of other well, superstitions and 165 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:37,080 Speaker 1: whatnot that I don't know if they were Nigerian specific 166 00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:39,800 Speaker 1: or if it was just my family decided we were 167 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:41,360 Speaker 1: going to come up with a bunch of stuff. But 168 00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:43,959 Speaker 1: like there were other things that I was just like, 169 00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 1: there's no way that you know, there's no way this 170 00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:50,760 Speaker 1: is also true, like if there's one that like if 171 00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:53,360 Speaker 1: you're sitting on the floor and someone steps over you, 172 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:56,440 Speaker 1: it's supposed to stunt your growth. And I was just like, 173 00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:01,920 Speaker 1: not likely. So the likelihood that this and the left 174 00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:04,280 Speaker 1: hand thing it's true, it's like probably not. I mean, 175 00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:06,520 Speaker 1: we'll come to think of it. Like it is more 176 00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:08,959 Speaker 1: unlucky to be left handed because the world is it's 177 00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:14,840 Speaker 1: the right hander's world. Left handed people unfortunately die more 178 00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:22,040 Speaker 1: because like if what there's like a higher because like 179 00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:26,160 Speaker 1: if you're using as much as right handed no no, 180 00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:29,040 Speaker 1: no, no no, it's look it up. Look it up. It's 181 00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:32,000 Speaker 1: like easier to like get into an accident dive if 182 00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:34,760 Speaker 1: you're left handed, because the world is like set up 183 00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:37,960 Speaker 1: for right handed people. So if you're using the chainsaw, 184 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:42,760 Speaker 1: it's likely to be a right handed chainsaw. And so 185 00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:44,439 Speaker 1: if you try it with your left hand, there's like 186 00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:47,160 Speaker 1: a little bit of a difference and a little bit 187 00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 1: of you know, it's a little adjustment for the listeners 188 00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:54,200 Speaker 1: at home. David is currently trying to uh to my 189 00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:57,840 Speaker 1: a chainsaw. I've used to chainsaw before. I'm just trying 190 00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:00,920 Speaker 1: to think about how it went. Did you did you 191 00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:03,440 Speaker 1: do it as a lefty? Were you doing it left 192 00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:07,080 Speaker 1: hand dominant chainsaw? No? I feel like I held the 193 00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:11,720 Speaker 1: guard with my left hand and I pulled the choke 194 00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:15,120 Speaker 1: with my right hand. That seems right hand dominant, if 195 00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:18,439 Speaker 1: that's what I'm saying. And now, see that's how they get, you, brother, 196 00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:24,760 Speaker 1: i't even know that's how they get I'm so indoctrinated. 197 00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 1: I didn't think there was a better way to change, 198 00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:29,560 Speaker 1: because now I'm like in my hand, I'm like, if 199 00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:33,520 Speaker 1: I had to change saw how I wanted, I would 200 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:36,600 Speaker 1: use this fand here and pull it with this fand yeah, 201 00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:40,200 Speaker 1: But then where would that be situated with you? Like 202 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:42,560 Speaker 1: would you be able to pull it with your left 203 00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:46,199 Speaker 1: hand and it be like still straight or would your 204 00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:49,200 Speaker 1: right hand still be able to hold onto the other thing, 205 00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:53,720 Speaker 1: or would it be like more precarious? You could you know, 206 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:56,079 Speaker 1: it's all over to one side and see your leg. 207 00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:59,960 Speaker 1: It's all bad. Also with guns, the safeties, it's all 208 00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:02,920 Speaker 1: is for. It's for right handed people. You're not supposed 209 00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:09,040 Speaker 1: to shoot except for clock jen fives. But it breaks 210 00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:10,920 Speaker 1: my heart to think that you could be one of 211 00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:14,440 Speaker 1: the greatest chainsaw champions in the country. Were it not 212 00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:20,080 Speaker 1: for the failures of our education system and producers, I 213 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:26,080 Speaker 1: could have been one of the greats. Paul Bunyan, John Henry, 214 00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:31,439 Speaker 1: David Boy I could add. Yeah, we all heard all 215 00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:35,000 Speaker 1: those John Henry stories of him with the chainsaw, the 216 00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 1: guy who refused to use modern technology. John Henry was 217 00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:44,880 Speaker 1: the one who beat the He beat the train machine. Yeah, 218 00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:48,000 Speaker 1: he just used the sledgehammer. I'm sure there was a 219 00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:51,199 Speaker 1: black chainsaw man. There's gotta be a black chainslaw man 220 00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:53,599 Speaker 1: out there. And if you're a black chainsaw man, we 221 00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:57,400 Speaker 1: would love to hear from you. Please please your updates 222 00:13:57,400 --> 00:14:00,319 Speaker 1: to my Mama Pott at gmail dot com. True, we 223 00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:03,000 Speaker 1: don't even care if they're conspiracy related. We just want 224 00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:05,319 Speaker 1: to know that you're doing all right. No, if you're 225 00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:10,199 Speaker 1: a black chainsaw man, I'm looking to offload some money anyways, 226 00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:15,040 Speaker 1: I will I will support you in the chainsaw games. 227 00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:18,240 Speaker 1: I've seen them on ESPN three. I know they're real. 228 00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:21,520 Speaker 1: I've never seen a black guy. Let's you know, hit 229 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:24,960 Speaker 1: me dad. So do you mean like a chainsaw man, 230 00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:29,400 Speaker 1: like like John Henry style, like they go and like 231 00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:34,200 Speaker 1: have him go against a chainsaw just with two axes 232 00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:36,920 Speaker 1: or something. No, you've never seen them. You never seen 233 00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:40,000 Speaker 1: the timber games on ESPN four. You've never seen like 234 00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:46,960 Speaker 1: you never been depressed at the best Western like two 235 00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:51,000 Speaker 1: real thick men battling it out over who can chop 236 00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:56,760 Speaker 1: wood faster. Yeah, yes, like running on a log and 237 00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:59,680 Speaker 1: seeing who can fall off. But then sometimes they have 238 00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:02,480 Speaker 1: to chain saw stuff and then they have to like 239 00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:06,280 Speaker 1: change saw very strategically to make a tree fall down 240 00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 1: or to like uh yeah, to do cool stuff. So yeah, 241 00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:11,960 Speaker 1: I think Bori could have been one of the best. 242 00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:15,240 Speaker 1: I think, so I would love to see a black 243 00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:17,680 Speaker 1: person do that. I feel like we were wrecked shock 244 00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:19,800 Speaker 1: with that ship. I have a feeling and this is 245 00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:23,720 Speaker 1: pretty racist. I feel like we're I feel like we're 246 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:25,840 Speaker 1: the best at all the sports. We just haven't figured 247 00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:29,720 Speaker 1: out all the sports yet. WHOA like you know what 248 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:32,160 Speaker 1: I'm saying, Like, if you gave us all the sports, 249 00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:35,440 Speaker 1: like we're the best ninja warriors. Black people just aren't 250 00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:38,960 Speaker 1: ninja warrior and like that, you know what I mean. 251 00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:43,040 Speaker 1: It does to some extent. But then I think about 252 00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:47,680 Speaker 1: like the way Asians dominate, like like gymnastics and and 253 00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:51,200 Speaker 1: cool flips and ship and I don't know, they're they're 254 00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:54,200 Speaker 1: naturally sometimes a little more petite than us, and I 255 00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:57,880 Speaker 1: just think that they're gonna win. What about bios for sure? 256 00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:01,200 Speaker 1: All right, she's the best at her in the in 257 00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:04,960 Speaker 1: the field. But I've been to uh, what's that nun? 258 00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:09,160 Speaker 1: And that you Yeah, I didn't want to go, but 259 00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:12,120 Speaker 1: my mother in law really wanted to go. And it 260 00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:16,040 Speaker 1: turns out it stinks anybody that's scaring us about Shen Yune. 261 00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:20,520 Speaker 1: It's a real stink show. I wouldn't recommend it to anybody. 262 00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:25,560 Speaker 1: Oh man, I wanted to go. That's like one of 263 00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:27,880 Speaker 1: these days I'm gonna put down sixty dollars to see 264 00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:30,520 Speaker 1: some people do some of those jump kicks. No, don't 265 00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:32,400 Speaker 1: go to Jen, You and y'all, it ain't worth it. 266 00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:35,280 Speaker 1: Oh I thought it was a play. No, I mean 267 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:38,480 Speaker 1: it kind of is. It's a series of plays and 268 00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:42,320 Speaker 1: then there's a Chinese person and a white man who 269 00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:44,800 Speaker 1: sort of like coming in between and give you like 270 00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:49,440 Speaker 1: historical information about each of these stories that they're telling, 271 00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:54,000 Speaker 1: and it just kind yeah, it feels like you know 272 00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:57,040 Speaker 1: when it feels It feels like when your school has 273 00:16:57,160 --> 00:17:00,480 Speaker 1: like an assignment that you have to like both watching 274 00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:03,600 Speaker 1: a play but also taking notes. It's got that the 275 00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:08,000 Speaker 1: whole time. And then I thought that was a guy. 276 00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:13,240 Speaker 1: Oh is that Shank song that you're thinking of. I 277 00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:17,240 Speaker 1: might be thinking of Shang Chi of the Golden Rings. 278 00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:20,199 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's the guy too. There's a few guys 279 00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:24,960 Speaker 1: with shin type bassis that this episode really went off 280 00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:33,280 Speaker 1: the rails. Sorry, we we started talking about sports and 281 00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:37,119 Speaker 1: somehow got real bigoted. About a minute and a half 282 00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:40,240 Speaker 1: later before we go to break Maggie this, I feel 283 00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:44,080 Speaker 1: like this is an important question. Your brother was was 284 00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:48,560 Speaker 1: trained to basically embrace his right hand. Do you think 285 00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:52,920 Speaker 1: any part of him now believes some of what your 286 00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:56,080 Speaker 1: grandmother said? Is anyone in your family sold on the 287 00:17:56,119 --> 00:18:00,879 Speaker 1: possibility that there's something bad about left handedness? Um? I 288 00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 1: mean no, because now he writes with his left hand, 289 00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:08,880 Speaker 1: Like if there was any I think it was kind 290 00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:10,680 Speaker 1: of a thing that he might have been doing just 291 00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:14,560 Speaker 1: to like give lip service, but I don't think any part. 292 00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:18,199 Speaker 1: I mean, he was still left left side dominant, Like 293 00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:21,040 Speaker 1: he's still dominant soccer with his left hand, you know, 294 00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:25,040 Speaker 1: left foot, and like everything, like even if he's not 295 00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:27,040 Speaker 1: writing with his right hand, if he's gonna catch something, 296 00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:30,840 Speaker 1: he's catch it with the left. So so he was 297 00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:35,240 Speaker 1: really just being respectful to your grandmother as like the 298 00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:39,520 Speaker 1: matriarch of your family, exactly exactly. And I think when 299 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:41,560 Speaker 1: you're a kid, you don't know he was left in 300 00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:49,800 Speaker 1: the streets. But I think, like if when you're a kid, 301 00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:51,720 Speaker 1: you don't really know, you're like, okay, is this a 302 00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:55,639 Speaker 1: bad thing? Let me just let me get on this side, 303 00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:59,520 Speaker 1: and like kind of see if you know, I think 304 00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:01,920 Speaker 1: in some ways, and I have to assume this also 305 00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:05,840 Speaker 1: was a challenge. Is like, as a black person growing 306 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:08,920 Speaker 1: up in a predominantly white space, you don't need more 307 00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:12,600 Speaker 1: reasons to like stand out. And I have to assume 308 00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:14,960 Speaker 1: that it also became easier to just be like, no, 309 00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:17,679 Speaker 1: I can I can write like the rest of y'all 310 00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:20,800 Speaker 1: and not feel at all sort of like threatened by 311 00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:24,440 Speaker 1: being the weird outsider in this space. I guess, so 312 00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:26,199 Speaker 1: I guess it was like a modicum of that. But 313 00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:31,600 Speaker 1: like thinking back in school and stuff like that, well, 314 00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:35,399 Speaker 1: I guess I wasn't raised in I was raised predominantly 315 00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:38,119 Speaker 1: in a culture that like thinks that or believes that 316 00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:40,760 Speaker 1: or whatever. It's just like what I heard from the home. 317 00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:45,440 Speaker 1: But like, I never I never noticed who's left handed 318 00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:49,480 Speaker 1: and who's right handed and class like that was nothing 319 00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:58,040 Speaker 1: that I ever found important. Oh, I see, that's why 320 00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:00,320 Speaker 1: it's more dangerous to be a lefty. I like that. 321 00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:05,159 Speaker 1: I like that. I like the Lengthston started this episode like, no, 322 00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:08,720 Speaker 1: this one is so vague, I actually have no idea 323 00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:12,960 Speaker 1: about any type of discrimination on the left. And then 324 00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:17,080 Speaker 1: twenty minutes and he's like, I used to kill them. 325 00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:21,240 Speaker 1: We murder those kids in the street from being filthy strangers. 326 00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:27,359 Speaker 1: Once again, I am left handed. And wait till I 327 00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:33,840 Speaker 1: see you in person, big dog. All right, we're gonna 328 00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:35,760 Speaker 1: take a break. We'll be back with more Maggie May 329 00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:55,560 Speaker 1: and more, my mama told me, And we are. Yeah, 330 00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:59,080 Speaker 1: we're back here with more Maggie May more. My mama 331 00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:01,840 Speaker 1: told me. We're still talking about the possibility that left 332 00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:06,160 Speaker 1: handedness a left handed person is somehow bad. The left 333 00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:10,880 Speaker 1: hand itself is bad in society. Did you feel like 334 00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:15,040 Speaker 1: you ever witnessed outside of your home any evidence of 335 00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:18,600 Speaker 1: this being true other than all those dead left handed 336 00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:23,440 Speaker 1: people that you you apparently were walking past every day. 337 00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:29,639 Speaker 1: A couple of times. Actually, I remember I was maybe 338 00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:32,320 Speaker 1: in an argument or something with somewhat with a friend 339 00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:34,359 Speaker 1: of mine and then like we had you know, I 340 00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:37,280 Speaker 1: decided I wasn't mad or anything, and I like extended 341 00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:39,640 Speaker 1: my hand to him. Didn't think which hand I was extending, 342 00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:42,119 Speaker 1: and he was like, not your left hand, and I 343 00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:45,919 Speaker 1: was just like, what do you mean, not you're And 344 00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:48,800 Speaker 1: then I saw an improv show. I used to do 345 00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:51,000 Speaker 1: improv back in the day. Well, I still do whatever, 346 00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:53,880 Speaker 1: but it's okay, but you don't have to be ashamed 347 00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:56,960 Speaker 1: of it. It's it's a perfectly healthy art form that 348 00:21:57,080 --> 00:22:00,119 Speaker 1: some people enjoy. Yeah, I mean, I'm not ashamed it. 349 00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:03,040 Speaker 1: I just was like, oh, back in the day, I 350 00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:04,760 Speaker 1: used to do it, and when in fact, like I 351 00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:09,040 Speaker 1: would do it tomorrow. Someone booked me, but uh, some 352 00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:13,560 Speaker 1: my friends. Tony someone tried to shake her hand on 353 00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:16,960 Speaker 1: stage and she was like, don't left hand me. Don't 354 00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:18,919 Speaker 1: give me that, and she said, don't give me that 355 00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:23,320 Speaker 1: poop hands, and I was just like the world, you're not. 356 00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:29,120 Speaker 1: It's only okay if I say it, that's his poop hand, 357 00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:39,280 Speaker 1: that's my poop. Wait have you heard that before? You heard? No? 358 00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:41,440 Speaker 1: But people don't. I know, people don't like it when 359 00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:43,679 Speaker 1: you go to shake with your left. I've had to 360 00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:47,360 Speaker 1: condition myself. Did I naturally just shake with the right, 361 00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:51,879 Speaker 1: which is uncomfortable for me? And maybe my grip isn't strong. 362 00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:54,399 Speaker 1: So yeah, you caught me on an off day and 363 00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:57,680 Speaker 1: you popped my knuckle a little bit. I'm just not 364 00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:02,119 Speaker 1: used to that hand. But yeah, people don't like it 365 00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:03,560 Speaker 1: if you come in and shake with your left thing 366 00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:07,320 Speaker 1: at all. Yeah, I've always at least from my and again, 367 00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:09,720 Speaker 1: I'm right handed, so maybe some of this is just 368 00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:12,639 Speaker 1: like being ignorant to it. I always presumed that that 369 00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:16,240 Speaker 1: was just an American thing that, like we had all agreed, 370 00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:20,080 Speaker 1: right hand is the way you shake, and nobody would 371 00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:23,359 Speaker 1: ever dare shake with their left. I mean, I haven't 372 00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:26,800 Speaker 1: touched a lot of foreigners physically, but I'd imagine I 373 00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:31,720 Speaker 1: think that's worldwide. It sounds right. Maybe some of this 374 00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:34,520 Speaker 1: research will help clear it up, but it definitely what 375 00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:36,760 Speaker 1: do the what the what do the books say. Well, 376 00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:41,480 Speaker 1: I'll tell you this. Apparently the word sinister sinister we 377 00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:45,880 Speaker 1: all know uh to be a word meaning evil, bad, 378 00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:49,440 Speaker 1: demonic of sorts, you know those kinds of things. It 379 00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:53,159 Speaker 1: actually the Latin word. It comes from a Latin word 380 00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:57,920 Speaker 1: meaning on the left side. That's the the original definition 381 00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:01,960 Speaker 1: of the Latin word that sinister comes from. So it's 382 00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:05,560 Speaker 1: not starting great for you, big dog. No. And it's like, 383 00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:09,680 Speaker 1: it's not just me, there's we're a third of the population. 384 00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:15,200 Speaker 1: Is it a third? Is that? Yeah? That seems real high. 385 00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:16,520 Speaker 1: As soon as I said it, I was like, yo, 386 00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:20,760 Speaker 1: your wolet I bet you. I feel like it's probably 387 00:24:20,800 --> 00:24:24,480 Speaker 1: like six it's it's not very common. No, it's very 388 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:27,639 Speaker 1: it's pretty uncommon. And some suggests and it sort of 389 00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:30,040 Speaker 1: goes back to what you were saying earlier, Maggie about 390 00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:35,000 Speaker 1: the association's right that some of the reasons these associations 391 00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:39,320 Speaker 1: have been considered bad is largely because of how dominant 392 00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:43,800 Speaker 1: right handed people have been in society. So it's much 393 00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:47,960 Speaker 1: more convenient for a a society at large to be like, hey, 394 00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:50,720 Speaker 1: everybody do the same thing the way we're doing it 395 00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:53,880 Speaker 1: than to embrace the possibility that like, yeah, maybe your 396 00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:57,200 Speaker 1: hand could do a different thing. I mean, we even 397 00:24:57,200 --> 00:25:00,080 Speaker 1: have the nerve to call it the right hand, m 398 00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:02,800 Speaker 1: you know, and then the other one just left, like 399 00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:08,359 Speaker 1: Ship went left. I love him hotep tones to it. 400 00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:12,120 Speaker 1: I like what you're doing here. My question. First of all, 401 00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:18,160 Speaker 1: I hear you. I understand. My question is what came 402 00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:24,080 Speaker 1: first the idea the word right being of correct meaning 403 00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:29,000 Speaker 1: like correct and virtuous, or the term right as a direction. Mmmm. 404 00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:31,960 Speaker 1: And I think that's a legitimate question. What I will 405 00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:37,240 Speaker 1: tell you is that historically the there have been both 406 00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:41,879 Speaker 1: periods of high shaming and high embrace of left handed people. 407 00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:45,600 Speaker 1: That like, actually the ancient Celts, you know, back before 408 00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:51,920 Speaker 1: they were Celts and Ship, the Celts associated the the 409 00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:55,600 Speaker 1: they associated the left hand with like femininity and uh 410 00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:58,640 Speaker 1: sort of like the what did they say, the fertile 411 00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:06,440 Speaker 1: wounb that like it was like a beautiful thing left hand. Yeah, 412 00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:08,920 Speaker 1: they said, you are a gorgeous lady if you're a 413 00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:16,680 Speaker 1: you got a big, old, heavy, healthy wound cal bearing woom. 414 00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:18,920 Speaker 1: Why is it? What I don't understand is why is 415 00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:24,960 Speaker 1: it masculine or feminine? Everybody has left hands, yes they do. Well, 416 00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:29,520 Speaker 1: that's not true. Some people don't have most lends. And 417 00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:30,800 Speaker 1: if you don't have a left hand, you have a 418 00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:34,560 Speaker 1: left foot. Yeah, that's also not true. I think you 419 00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:38,359 Speaker 1: can have. You could be missing whole sides here. You 420 00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:43,640 Speaker 1: gotta left something. Everybody's got something on the left side. 421 00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:47,639 Speaker 1: They could move. But I think to your larger point 422 00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:53,000 Speaker 1: that these sort of weird associations or correlations are one 423 00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:56,760 Speaker 1: that that they feel odds for. So, for example, the 424 00:26:56,840 --> 00:27:01,040 Speaker 1: ancient Greeks believes men were associate with the right and 425 00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:04,440 Speaker 1: women were associated with the left, and in fact fathers 426 00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:08,080 Speaker 1: used to uh well, they believed that that men were 427 00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:11,960 Speaker 1: the product of the right testicle and that women were 428 00:27:12,040 --> 00:27:14,960 Speaker 1: the product of the left testicle, meaning that the sperm 429 00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:17,520 Speaker 1: that came out of the right testicle produced a man 430 00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:20,040 Speaker 1: and the sperm that came out of the left testicle 431 00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:23,000 Speaker 1: produced a woman. And they went so far, this is 432 00:27:23,040 --> 00:27:25,679 Speaker 1: the craziest part. They went so far as to tie 433 00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:31,399 Speaker 1: off the preferred testicle, or rather the testicle they didn't prefer, 434 00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:34,320 Speaker 1: to make sure that the nut came out of the 435 00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:38,639 Speaker 1: side they wanted as a woman, I as I would, 436 00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:43,440 Speaker 1: I assume you have thoughts. I don't know all. I 437 00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:46,239 Speaker 1: think it's just the wild ship people used to do 438 00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:49,840 Speaker 1: before Google, you know, just the wild stories people used 439 00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:52,160 Speaker 1: to make up for themselves and just be like, Okay, 440 00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:54,159 Speaker 1: let's put a rubber band around your nuts so we 441 00:27:54,160 --> 00:28:00,080 Speaker 1: can have a girl. I think, and that's also the 442 00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:02,320 Speaker 1: the part that makes me think that this is where 443 00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:06,000 Speaker 1: some of the bigotry relating to left handed people starts 444 00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:09,600 Speaker 1: to be built, because I can't presume that they were 445 00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:13,800 Speaker 1: often tying off their right nut preferring a girl. I 446 00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:16,720 Speaker 1: think that if you are noticing the difference between nut, 447 00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:19,920 Speaker 1: you're more than likely saying, well, I want the boy, 448 00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:23,240 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna tie off my left nut to shame 449 00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:28,200 Speaker 1: women and and separate girls from my my home now Langston. 450 00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:31,320 Speaker 1: As a father, can you speak to the validity of 451 00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:34,080 Speaker 1: any of this, I will say that I have a daughter, 452 00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:38,240 Speaker 1: and uh, my left nut seems to be working pretty 453 00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:42,240 Speaker 1: pretty strong, so I'm gonna presume she's a left nut baby, 454 00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:44,480 Speaker 1: and I'm I'm proud of that. I'm proud of my 455 00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:57,520 Speaker 1: left nut, my left nut baby. I pray to God 456 00:28:57,760 --> 00:29:00,640 Speaker 1: that this episode gets archived and she to hear this 457 00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:06,640 Speaker 1: as soon as possible. Let's get this right in at 458 00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:09,840 Speaker 1: the developmental stage, you know, she needs to feel like 459 00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:13,440 Speaker 1: she knows where she came from exactly right after in 460 00:29:13,560 --> 00:29:16,720 Speaker 1: seventh grade, like when they learn about health and like 461 00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:20,200 Speaker 1: where babies come from that day, Like you learn some 462 00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:22,920 Speaker 1: stuff during school, but look where you really came from. 463 00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:25,680 Speaker 1: Oh no, you're you're missing. You're missing what I would like. 464 00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:28,840 Speaker 1: I would like for her to be learning in health class, 465 00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:31,040 Speaker 1: and then for the health teacher to be like, and 466 00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:34,840 Speaker 1: now we have a snippet from your father's podcast in 467 00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:39,040 Speaker 1: which she clarifies exactly where you came from and then 468 00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:45,200 Speaker 1: boom left nut. She's gonna she's gonna be She's gonna 469 00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:47,640 Speaker 1: be one of those kids who tells everybody the wrong 470 00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:51,080 Speaker 1: stuff and they just believe it. This kid and the 471 00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:53,480 Speaker 1: Boys Girls Club told me that girls p out of 472 00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:55,840 Speaker 1: their butt, and I believe it till I was like thirteen, 473 00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:00,320 Speaker 1: And I think he doesn't need to be out here 474 00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:06,480 Speaker 1: spreading our business. But yeah, calm down, ma'am. I've seen 475 00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:13,400 Speaker 1: the videos on the internet that is not where it's 476 00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:16,320 Speaker 1: not on purpose, not on purpose, but you know, I 477 00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:22,640 Speaker 1: click around. I'm an adventurer. Yeah, yeah, I stand up 478 00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:29,120 Speaker 1: to oppression tyranny so interestingly, and this this continues to 479 00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:32,320 Speaker 1: be positive in relation to the left handedness, and don't worry, 480 00:30:32,360 --> 00:30:35,720 Speaker 1: we'll get to the negative. But interestingly, in terms of 481 00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:40,280 Speaker 1: the positive, research shows that parents and specifically women are 482 00:30:40,320 --> 00:30:43,480 Speaker 1: more likely to carry their children on the left side 483 00:30:43,480 --> 00:30:46,960 Speaker 1: of their body. And this physical touch of holding their 484 00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:50,960 Speaker 1: kids on the left side actually is it's called something 485 00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:54,600 Speaker 1: called lateralization, where the right side of the brain is 486 00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:58,240 Speaker 1: activated from the left sides physical touch, and the right 487 00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:01,600 Speaker 1: side of the brain is responsible for language and interpreting 488 00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:05,400 Speaker 1: emotional signals. So it makes it it makes it so 489 00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:09,920 Speaker 1: you're able to be a more attentive, affectionate parent by 490 00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:13,120 Speaker 1: holding your child on the left side and using your 491 00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:16,960 Speaker 1: right brain. That's what's being suggested in the research. See 492 00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:18,880 Speaker 1: I don't think that that's why. I think people hold 493 00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:21,560 Speaker 1: their babies on their left hand because most people are 494 00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:23,720 Speaker 1: right handed and they want the hand free to eat 495 00:31:23,960 --> 00:31:27,400 Speaker 1: or to like swap things away, or to write something down, 496 00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:29,960 Speaker 1: or to make a phone call, like you can't really 497 00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:31,960 Speaker 1: do that easily with your left hand if you've got 498 00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:35,320 Speaker 1: a baby in it. So you think, right, this is 499 00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:38,360 Speaker 1: just people being selfish and wanting to keep their day 500 00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:41,320 Speaker 1: going and not be slowed down by these dumbass babies 501 00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:44,920 Speaker 1: exactly what does it? What does it mean? I'm African? 502 00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:50,920 Speaker 1: I was held on her back? What does that mean? 503 00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:53,880 Speaker 1: We did that too, that's what. Yeah, that means I'm 504 00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:58,240 Speaker 1: a generous lover and we'll be I think you're still growing, 505 00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:02,000 Speaker 1: that's for sure. What that means. Tell the audience the 506 00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:06,080 Speaker 1: back slows down growth and uh, you'll definitely hit six 507 00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:08,640 Speaker 1: ft And uh, I think it means your mom was 508 00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:12,680 Speaker 1: a busy lady who needed both her hands to Yeah, 509 00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:14,280 Speaker 1: and you just when you put a baby on her, 510 00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:18,040 Speaker 1: they fall right asleep. Yeah, all, my all, my all, 511 00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:20,160 Speaker 1: My earliest memories are like me, like waking up on 512 00:32:20,200 --> 00:32:27,440 Speaker 1: my mom's back, like we're in the laundry, back real tight. Yeah, yeah, 513 00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:29,760 Speaker 1: you know, I remember it. She puts you on there 514 00:32:30,040 --> 00:32:31,840 Speaker 1: and then she takes a blanket and she wraps the 515 00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:35,160 Speaker 1: whole thing around tight and then yeah, it's like a 516 00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:37,600 Speaker 1: baby bed. But you don't look like a fucking douchebag? 517 00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:46,960 Speaker 1: Is that? Is that? How how a lot of African 518 00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:49,600 Speaker 1: cultures look at the way Americans are carrying their babies, 519 00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:52,120 Speaker 1: that we just look like douche bags holding our babies 520 00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:57,800 Speaker 1: in the front and on the side. You didn't think that. No, 521 00:32:58,200 --> 00:32:59,920 Speaker 1: I didn't. I didn't know. Y'all were like, if you 522 00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:04,800 Speaker 1: way Dora exploring your your kid, you're you're a fucking idiot. 523 00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:08,440 Speaker 1: Why did you put baby beyond? Is the most white 524 00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:10,920 Speaker 1: nonsense ever. Why would you have put the kid in 525 00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:13,720 Speaker 1: the front. That's not even safe. What if you're attacked? 526 00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:17,720 Speaker 1: What if you're attacked from the back? You can't see 527 00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:20,400 Speaker 1: it coming? Oh, how many times have you been attacked 528 00:33:20,400 --> 00:33:27,400 Speaker 1: from the back? I would argue most of the time. Also, also, 529 00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:28,920 Speaker 1: you got a baby on your back. You put your 530 00:33:28,920 --> 00:33:32,560 Speaker 1: back to the wall. Now you can like you pivot, 531 00:33:32,920 --> 00:33:35,040 Speaker 1: you pivot. Your baby is on the front. That baby 532 00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:39,800 Speaker 1: is exposed, little white baby is exposed. What if you trip? 533 00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:43,400 Speaker 1: I didn't put myself in Tom cruise scenarios when when 534 00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:45,840 Speaker 1: I was thinking about the placement, and to your point, 535 00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:48,760 Speaker 1: that is fair. If I'm ever in a situation where 536 00:33:48,760 --> 00:33:52,040 Speaker 1: I'm being attacked by it seems like multiple ninja's, I 537 00:33:52,080 --> 00:33:53,960 Speaker 1: would like to be able to get my baby back 538 00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:56,920 Speaker 1: to the wall and and fight them off. In the 539 00:33:56,960 --> 00:34:00,840 Speaker 1: front seems crazy, and the front seems crazy. It looks weird. 540 00:34:01,040 --> 00:34:03,280 Speaker 1: It looks like the baby is just dangling there, looks 541 00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:09,760 Speaker 1: like the baby is controlling you. Yeah, as a person 542 00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:12,960 Speaker 1: who's been walking around with my baby like crying from 543 00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:16,440 Speaker 1: the Ninja turtles this entire time, I am feeling a 544 00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:21,720 Speaker 1: little embarrassed that you guys are are so emphatic about this. Yeah, 545 00:34:21,840 --> 00:34:25,360 Speaker 1: you should put that flip into the bag. Yeah, the 546 00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:31,919 Speaker 1: back just around. Honestly, once they get toddler size, put 547 00:34:31,960 --> 00:34:35,040 Speaker 1: them in the backpack. Mm hmm. You just leave the 548 00:34:35,120 --> 00:34:39,000 Speaker 1: air hole open a look around. I don't know if 549 00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:42,719 Speaker 1: that's how that's what babies are are are made for, 550 00:34:42,920 --> 00:34:45,960 Speaker 1: and I certainly don't think that that that works, or 551 00:34:46,080 --> 00:34:48,239 Speaker 1: certainly the backpacks are going to be able to hold 552 00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:50,759 Speaker 1: them up. But I hear you. I mean, they're not 553 00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:56,200 Speaker 1: made to fucking sit on your chest like a goddamn neace. 554 00:34:57,760 --> 00:35:02,320 Speaker 1: It's the cheap necklace lets fair enough, not even gold. 555 00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:04,560 Speaker 1: A lot of points are being made. They're all hurting 556 00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:09,840 Speaker 1: my feelings. But I hear you. Let's let's get into 557 00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:12,839 Speaker 1: before we go to break. Let's get into some of 558 00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:17,240 Speaker 1: the negative connotations of the left hand. Apparently, the left 559 00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:23,600 Speaker 1: carries associations of immorality, primarily in Christian teachings. That Christianity 560 00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:28,160 Speaker 1: teaches us that the left hand is immoral and specifically 561 00:35:28,320 --> 00:35:31,680 Speaker 1: this part was pretty devastating. From the Book of Matthew, 562 00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:35,280 Speaker 1: in reference to the Last Day of Judgment, it says, 563 00:35:35,440 --> 00:35:39,160 Speaker 1: he shall separate all nations one from another, as a 564 00:35:39,239 --> 00:35:42,840 Speaker 1: shepherd divided his sheep from the goats, And he shall 565 00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:45,640 Speaker 1: set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats 566 00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:48,799 Speaker 1: on the left. Then shall the King say unto them 567 00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:51,960 Speaker 1: on his right hand, come ye, blessed of my father 568 00:35:52,360 --> 00:35:55,800 Speaker 1: inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of 569 00:35:55,880 --> 00:35:58,560 Speaker 1: the world. Then shall he say also onto them on 570 00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:03,200 Speaker 1: the left hand, depart for me, he cursed into everlasting fire, 571 00:36:03,600 --> 00:36:08,080 Speaker 1: prepared for the devil and his angels. M m all 572 00:36:08,120 --> 00:36:10,360 Speaker 1: I hear from that, I said, I'm a hot boy. 573 00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:16,160 Speaker 1: I think that that phrase was the inspiration to be 574 00:36:16,239 --> 00:36:19,560 Speaker 1: onces to the left. To the left, because she could 575 00:36:19,560 --> 00:36:23,680 Speaker 1: have said to the right, like I never thought about it, 576 00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:27,360 Speaker 1: to the left, get your poop handship to the left 577 00:36:27,360 --> 00:36:31,040 Speaker 1: and out of my house. Everybody's associating you to the left. 578 00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:35,640 Speaker 1: But also, why are we goats? It's not great? You 579 00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:40,799 Speaker 1: think are are hellish? Don't they have like a goat 580 00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:44,200 Speaker 1: to the greatest of all time? Yeah, that's that's what 581 00:36:44,440 --> 00:36:46,799 Speaker 1: ll cool Jay started. But up before then, it was 582 00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:51,200 Speaker 1: pretty consistently devil dogs. Oh it's because of their eyes. 583 00:36:51,239 --> 00:36:53,960 Speaker 1: They do have devilish eyes. They got them square eyes. 584 00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:57,200 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah. I don't like. I don't 585 00:36:57,200 --> 00:37:02,000 Speaker 1: like that either can eat trash, right, they pretty much 586 00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:05,160 Speaker 1: anything like they'll eat like a tim can. Yeah exactly. 587 00:37:05,560 --> 00:37:07,960 Speaker 1: I don't think it's good for them, but I do 588 00:37:08,040 --> 00:37:11,360 Speaker 1: think they're capable of it. I hate this. I mean, listen, 589 00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:15,879 Speaker 1: that was just listen. And also and also that's in Matthew, right, 590 00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:20,120 Speaker 1: it was in Matthew the book. He said a lot 591 00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:25,480 Speaker 1: of things. Tell me another thing. You said, Uh, didn't he? 592 00:37:25,640 --> 00:37:29,239 Speaker 1: Isn't he the one who had the vision where all 593 00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:32,719 Speaker 1: the unclean animals were on it and then God was 594 00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:34,480 Speaker 1: like taking eat and then they were like, oh the 595 00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:37,120 Speaker 1: Covenant is broken, now we can eat pork. That was 596 00:37:37,160 --> 00:37:40,160 Speaker 1: in Matthew. I don't know. I truly was just helping. 597 00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:44,239 Speaker 1: You thought I was a fucking dickhead. You thought I 598 00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:50,560 Speaker 1: was a left handed poop boy. So I should note 599 00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:53,640 Speaker 1: for for anybody that's worried that this is strictly a 600 00:37:53,719 --> 00:37:58,200 Speaker 1: Christian thing, it is not. Apparently, these same sentiments appear 601 00:37:58,320 --> 00:38:02,000 Speaker 1: in Jewish text uh, a few Middle Eastern books, and 602 00:38:02,120 --> 00:38:06,000 Speaker 1: some African cultures as well, So this is not isolated 603 00:38:06,040 --> 00:38:10,799 Speaker 1: to just Christian ritual and ship. This is literally everywhere. 604 00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:15,040 Speaker 1: I hate that which Africans saying they weren't specific, which 605 00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:17,359 Speaker 1: is always a problem for me with these things where 606 00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:19,360 Speaker 1: they go like in all of Africa, and it's like, 607 00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:22,040 Speaker 1: I don't know, big dog, that that seems pretty unfair. 608 00:38:22,280 --> 00:38:25,719 Speaker 1: There's so much of Africa. Y'all get a little specific 609 00:38:25,760 --> 00:38:28,120 Speaker 1: when it comes to Lithuania, but then you get real 610 00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:34,760 Speaker 1: when it comes we gotta know where fucking Nantucket is. Yeah, 611 00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:39,799 Speaker 1: well there's some people in Nigeria saying it. Damn, there's 612 00:38:39,840 --> 00:38:42,560 Speaker 1: some people in Nigeria, no offense, saying a lot of 613 00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:51,040 Speaker 1: wild stuff, a lot of princes, yeah, of scams. Well, 614 00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:53,560 Speaker 1: I mean the prince thing is like it's kind of 615 00:38:53,640 --> 00:38:56,839 Speaker 1: like a there's like a lot of people who are 616 00:38:56,840 --> 00:38:59,640 Speaker 1: princess and like a lot of people who are princesses, 617 00:38:59,719 --> 00:39:02,359 Speaker 1: Like I'm a princess on both sides, like, but it 618 00:39:02,400 --> 00:39:06,480 Speaker 1: doesn't mean really anything. Are you a princess? Are we 619 00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:10,600 Speaker 1: speaking to royalty right now? Both sides? Whoa you're a 620 00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:15,239 Speaker 1: double sided princess. Damn what does that? But I mean 621 00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:18,400 Speaker 1: that and a nickel gets me nickel sup. Damn? All right, 622 00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:21,080 Speaker 1: there's nothing you can like, you can't get, like you 623 00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:23,439 Speaker 1: can't get a cow. There's nothing you can get from 624 00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:27,719 Speaker 1: that now because it's all like tribal stuff, you know. 625 00:39:28,120 --> 00:39:31,440 Speaker 1: So it's like, you know, I don't have any authority 626 00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:34,839 Speaker 1: or anything. My family is the worst of tribes. Were like, 627 00:39:35,239 --> 00:39:40,600 Speaker 1: we have no status in the tribe. Yeah, you're a 628 00:39:40,640 --> 00:39:44,600 Speaker 1: double princess. We're like, just like we got some rice patties. 629 00:39:47,680 --> 00:39:51,760 Speaker 1: Damn that hurts this This podcast has seemed to only 630 00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:54,200 Speaker 1: divide us as a group. We went into this and 631 00:39:54,239 --> 00:39:59,560 Speaker 1: we all liked each other friends, and now you're surf somehow, 632 00:39:59,719 --> 00:40:04,640 Speaker 1: and yeah, now I can't talk to y'all. Yeah, I'm sinister. 633 00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:09,839 Speaker 1: It's all bad. They say we was kings, but we 634 00:40:09,880 --> 00:40:14,040 Speaker 1: was friends once and now look at us. Yeah, this 635 00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:16,600 Speaker 1: is all because of the left hand. You know who 636 00:40:16,640 --> 00:40:19,560 Speaker 1: I blame the Christians. The Christians is a good place 637 00:40:19,560 --> 00:40:22,719 Speaker 1: to point your frustrations, that's for sure. Apparently, also the 638 00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:28,880 Speaker 1: Jews and some of the Africans. You gotta point out 639 00:40:28,920 --> 00:40:33,120 Speaker 1: a little bit of everybody, but they're all there. Sweeping 640 00:40:34,080 --> 00:40:37,239 Speaker 1: at We're mad at all, y'all. We're gonna take more, 641 00:40:37,239 --> 00:40:39,279 Speaker 1: more break. We'll be back with more, Maggie May and more, 642 00:40:39,320 --> 00:40:58,839 Speaker 1: my mama told me. And we are back. Yeah, We're 643 00:40:58,880 --> 00:41:01,280 Speaker 1: back here with more, agging May more, and my mama 644 00:41:01,320 --> 00:41:04,560 Speaker 1: told me. We're still talking about the possibility that the 645 00:41:04,680 --> 00:41:08,440 Speaker 1: left hand is bad, that it is sinister, demonic, even 646 00:41:08,840 --> 00:41:11,759 Speaker 1: this is what the Christians are telling us. David is 647 00:41:12,239 --> 00:41:15,719 Speaker 1: upset about it. Maggie is largely indifferent. She thinks this 648 00:41:15,800 --> 00:41:18,160 Speaker 1: is all foolishness. We're piecing it together as we go. 649 00:41:18,360 --> 00:41:21,839 Speaker 1: Is that a fair a fair way to encapsulate what's 650 00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:25,279 Speaker 1: been happening. I think that was a beautiful synopsis. Thank 651 00:41:25,280 --> 00:41:28,680 Speaker 1: you so much. I do want to dig into the 652 00:41:28,680 --> 00:41:31,360 Speaker 1: rest of this research, because I think it only becomes 653 00:41:31,400 --> 00:41:34,720 Speaker 1: more painful as we go along. There was this dude, 654 00:41:34,800 --> 00:41:38,080 Speaker 1: apparently E. W. Lane, who wrote it in his book 655 00:41:38,160 --> 00:41:41,040 Speaker 1: eight in eighteen thirty six and Account of the Manners 656 00:41:41,080 --> 00:41:45,080 Speaker 1: and Customs of Modern Egyptians. He said, it is a 657 00:41:45,200 --> 00:41:48,240 Speaker 1: rule with the Muslims to honor the right hand above 658 00:41:48,280 --> 00:41:51,839 Speaker 1: the left, to use the right hand for all honorable purposes, 659 00:41:52,080 --> 00:41:55,799 Speaker 1: and the left for actions which, though necessary, are unclean, 660 00:41:56,200 --> 00:42:00,680 Speaker 1: which feels like it connects back to that poop conversation 661 00:42:01,160 --> 00:42:04,279 Speaker 1: that we were having earlier. Honestly, if I think about 662 00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:06,759 Speaker 1: all the things I do with my left hand, that 663 00:42:06,800 --> 00:42:15,040 Speaker 1: one does check out uncleaned ship. Yeah, necessary, but unclean. 664 00:42:16,360 --> 00:42:20,680 Speaker 1: Here's where it gets I guess more unkind to left 665 00:42:20,680 --> 00:42:23,040 Speaker 1: handed people, and specifically gives us a little bit more 666 00:42:23,160 --> 00:42:26,000 Speaker 1: history in terms of the propaganda around it. In the 667 00:42:26,120 --> 00:42:30,920 Speaker 1: nineteenth century. For instance, uh, French sociologists this dude Robert 668 00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:35,800 Speaker 1: Hurtz noted that in his travels to Southern Africa, Zulu 669 00:42:35,840 --> 00:42:39,960 Speaker 1: tribes would pour boiling water into a hole and then 670 00:42:40,040 --> 00:42:43,760 Speaker 1: place a child's left hand into it, scalding the hand 671 00:42:43,800 --> 00:42:48,040 Speaker 1: and preventing its use. They were boiling hands, maybe just 672 00:42:48,160 --> 00:42:50,920 Speaker 1: to keep you from being left handed. So how's that 673 00:42:50,960 --> 00:42:54,640 Speaker 1: baby is supposed to wipe his ass with that boiled 674 00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:57,440 Speaker 1: left hand? I think you wrapped some leaves around the 675 00:42:57,560 --> 00:43:03,399 Speaker 1: nub and you you go to town. I don't even 676 00:43:03,440 --> 00:43:07,000 Speaker 1: know what to say about that. I'm saying, has this 677 00:43:07,120 --> 00:43:10,680 Speaker 1: been corroberated by multiple sources? Well, this was an eighteen 678 00:43:11,080 --> 00:43:15,880 Speaker 1: uh eighteen something or the nineteenth century, So yeah, eighteen something. 679 00:43:16,280 --> 00:43:18,920 Speaker 1: I don't imagine that it wasn't cooked in with a 680 00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:22,240 Speaker 1: ship ton of bigotry where he really saw one weirdo 681 00:43:22,400 --> 00:43:24,879 Speaker 1: pour boiling water into a hole into it and it 682 00:43:24,920 --> 00:43:28,200 Speaker 1: was like, God, damn, these Africans are wild because from 683 00:43:28,239 --> 00:43:36,160 Speaker 1: what I know of the Zulus Shakazulu, right, very very 684 00:43:36,239 --> 00:43:40,719 Speaker 1: ambidextrious warrior people. Uh huh. Yet they weren't boiling their 685 00:43:40,719 --> 00:43:45,120 Speaker 1: own hands for sure that you wouldn't You would die 686 00:43:45,200 --> 00:43:47,520 Speaker 1: off right if you were doing dumb ship like that. 687 00:43:48,040 --> 00:43:51,560 Speaker 1: I don't think it's a great way to sustain the 688 00:43:51,719 --> 00:43:55,319 Speaker 1: livelihood of your nation. No, no, no, no no no. 689 00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:58,480 Speaker 1: Especially wasn't that like builds like a warrior nation? Because 690 00:43:58,480 --> 00:44:01,600 Speaker 1: I like when I was Ki seemed like he could 691 00:44:01,640 --> 00:44:05,920 Speaker 1: kick everybody's ass. If you're a warrior, why would you 692 00:44:05,960 --> 00:44:09,719 Speaker 1: want to have one less hand than the person that 693 00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:14,000 Speaker 1: you're fighting? Is? Maybe my only thing I can see 694 00:44:14,080 --> 00:44:18,080 Speaker 1: is you know how they claimed that was it the 695 00:44:18,120 --> 00:44:23,080 Speaker 1: Amazon's cut off one. Oh, but you can't hit anybody 696 00:44:23,080 --> 00:44:25,560 Speaker 1: with your titty, Okay, your titty is like dead weight. 697 00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:34,319 Speaker 1: You can't. I've also been on the internet. Happen Okay 698 00:44:34,480 --> 00:44:36,680 Speaker 1: if I cut off one of my titties, ain't shit 699 00:44:36,800 --> 00:44:40,359 Speaker 1: happening with this a cup. I'm not hurting anybody. I'm 700 00:44:40,400 --> 00:44:44,080 Speaker 1: not clearly anyone or causing any damage with this titty 701 00:44:44,120 --> 00:44:46,879 Speaker 1: bitty titty and there. I mean, they didn't cut off 702 00:44:46,920 --> 00:44:49,840 Speaker 1: the titty to use them as weapons. They cut it 703 00:44:49,920 --> 00:44:55,600 Speaker 1: for archery so they could draw. True. Oh, you thought 704 00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:59,560 Speaker 1: they were making like I just thought it was hazing. 705 00:44:59,560 --> 00:45:01,920 Speaker 1: I was what are you guys trying to prove? No, 706 00:45:02,400 --> 00:45:04,359 Speaker 1: But you're so hard. I cut my titty off like 707 00:45:05,640 --> 00:45:09,239 Speaker 1: it was more of a an act of functionality. That'd 708 00:45:09,280 --> 00:45:11,000 Speaker 1: be a bad day the day you saw a titty 709 00:45:11,000 --> 00:45:13,600 Speaker 1: get cut off. Oh man, you're not gonna Yeah, you 710 00:45:13,640 --> 00:45:15,960 Speaker 1: can't like go to work after that and and be 711 00:45:16,040 --> 00:45:18,920 Speaker 1: at peace. What if they cut off the wrong titty 712 00:45:18,960 --> 00:45:23,960 Speaker 1: and you still can't archery? You can't do They're demanding 713 00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:28,399 Speaker 1: that you do right handed archery, but you're left. Then 714 00:45:28,440 --> 00:45:31,120 Speaker 1: you funk around and accidentally shoot into the sky, comes 715 00:45:31,120 --> 00:45:33,120 Speaker 1: through your skull, and they're like, see that left handed 716 00:45:33,120 --> 00:45:37,040 Speaker 1: person was unlucky. Shit. I think now we're getting to 717 00:45:37,080 --> 00:45:42,440 Speaker 1: the bottom of it. So here's let's keep going in 718 00:45:42,520 --> 00:45:45,520 Speaker 1: some of these wild cultural choices during the Spanish In 719 00:45:46,080 --> 00:45:51,560 Speaker 1: Spanish Inquisition, the Catholic Church would condemn and occasionally execute 720 00:45:51,960 --> 00:45:55,640 Speaker 1: those who were who were left handed under the under 721 00:45:55,840 --> 00:45:59,439 Speaker 1: What was the reasoning, I believe just referencing that one 722 00:45:59,520 --> 00:46:02,640 Speaker 1: Matthew verse where they're like, hey, on the left side, 723 00:46:02,880 --> 00:46:06,080 Speaker 1: you left handed, you the devil you did. But doesn't 724 00:46:06,120 --> 00:46:09,600 Speaker 1: God love sinners? I don't know if he loves them 725 00:46:09,600 --> 00:46:11,759 Speaker 1: as much as he tolerates them, if they get this 726 00:46:11,960 --> 00:46:15,040 Speaker 1: ship together. I think that is the opposite of what 727 00:46:15,080 --> 00:46:22,839 Speaker 1: the gospel is like, I don't know. And all sin 728 00:46:23,040 --> 00:46:26,279 Speaker 1: is equal. So you think, let's just be clear, you 729 00:46:26,320 --> 00:46:30,120 Speaker 1: think God is You think God is seeing these sinners 730 00:46:30,320 --> 00:46:33,279 Speaker 1: and he's like, fuck, yeah, another one, another one. You 731 00:46:33,320 --> 00:46:36,719 Speaker 1: think that's that's where God is in this. I think 732 00:46:36,760 --> 00:46:40,600 Speaker 1: God wants us all to do the same. Everyone sins, 733 00:46:40,680 --> 00:46:43,440 Speaker 1: no one is immune from sin, and all sin is 734 00:46:43,480 --> 00:46:45,880 Speaker 1: equal in the eyes of the Lord. So my left 735 00:46:45,920 --> 00:46:49,719 Speaker 1: hand is the same as you doing whatever nastiness you 736 00:46:49,800 --> 00:46:53,560 Speaker 1: do on the right damn. See. But there's also this 737 00:46:53,680 --> 00:46:56,880 Speaker 1: Bible verse about giving where it's like, don't let your 738 00:46:56,960 --> 00:47:00,360 Speaker 1: left hand know what your right hand is doing. So 739 00:47:00,440 --> 00:47:03,200 Speaker 1: they were just like, we're gonna really make sure this 740 00:47:03,320 --> 00:47:06,879 Speaker 1: left hand can't We're gonna cut it off. And that's 741 00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:10,799 Speaker 1: enough for the Catholic Church to kill you. Yeah, they're 742 00:47:10,840 --> 00:47:13,160 Speaker 1: just looking for a reason. I feel like, especially back then, 743 00:47:13,160 --> 00:47:15,759 Speaker 1: they were just looking for any reason to just be 744 00:47:15,880 --> 00:47:18,520 Speaker 1: able to like chop some heads off and to that point, 745 00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:20,520 Speaker 1: and I think that's a fair one. The in fact, 746 00:47:20,600 --> 00:47:24,320 Speaker 1: during the Salem witch trials, that was also a reason 747 00:47:24,400 --> 00:47:27,080 Speaker 1: for you to potentially be burned at the stake was 748 00:47:27,080 --> 00:47:32,239 Speaker 1: was being left handed. Mhmm. Yeah, I'm sorry, man, I'm 749 00:47:32,239 --> 00:47:36,680 Speaker 1: sorry that you didn't do it. You didn't do it. 750 00:47:37,840 --> 00:47:41,200 Speaker 1: So here's where things get even crazier, because at some 751 00:47:41,239 --> 00:47:43,680 Speaker 1: point science got involved, right up to this point where 752 00:47:43,760 --> 00:47:47,480 Speaker 1: sort of like we're following religious texts and we're listening 753 00:47:47,520 --> 00:47:50,399 Speaker 1: to to sort of like the religious leaders. But at 754 00:47:50,480 --> 00:47:53,560 Speaker 1: some point science got involved and then connected left handedness 755 00:47:53,680 --> 00:47:57,960 Speaker 1: with mental deficiencies. They're not true, I swear to God. 756 00:47:58,000 --> 00:48:04,279 Speaker 1: Apparently there was this they basically we're trying to say, like, look, 757 00:48:04,320 --> 00:48:07,760 Speaker 1: it's not their fault that they're this way. Their brains 758 00:48:07,800 --> 00:48:10,240 Speaker 1: don't work the way that they're supposed to. In fact, 759 00:48:10,520 --> 00:48:14,319 Speaker 1: there was this dude, what's his name, Caesare Lombrosso, the 760 00:48:14,400 --> 00:48:17,680 Speaker 1: father of criminology, as he's he's sort of known, once 761 00:48:17,719 --> 00:48:22,600 Speaker 1: wrote when man advances in civilization and culture. He shows 762 00:48:22,640 --> 00:48:27,160 Speaker 1: an always greater right sidedness as compared to women and 763 00:48:27,360 --> 00:48:31,360 Speaker 1: savage races, who, even when they are properly left handed, 764 00:48:31,520 --> 00:48:35,440 Speaker 1: have certain gestures and movements which are a species of 765 00:48:35,600 --> 00:48:38,759 Speaker 1: left handedness. Well, I'm gonna be over here with the 766 00:48:38,760 --> 00:48:48,120 Speaker 1: women and the savages. It turns into a real racist 767 00:48:48,520 --> 00:48:53,920 Speaker 1: and sort of like uh anti woman thing after a while. 768 00:48:53,960 --> 00:48:57,120 Speaker 1: In fact, there there are other texts. This is maybe 769 00:48:57,160 --> 00:49:00,600 Speaker 1: the most damning of them. Oh no, I don't hapen anymore. 770 00:49:00,600 --> 00:49:05,960 Speaker 1: But there they basically became throughout history a major race issue, 771 00:49:06,000 --> 00:49:09,520 Speaker 1: and then people started suggesting that the left was proof 772 00:49:09,560 --> 00:49:14,760 Speaker 1: of Negro inadequacy. That basically, anytime you saw a person 773 00:49:14,920 --> 00:49:18,279 Speaker 1: using the left hand, they were often associating left hand 774 00:49:18,320 --> 00:49:21,440 Speaker 1: with with black people and sort of like the the 775 00:49:21,520 --> 00:49:25,120 Speaker 1: failures of black movements and ship. See I'm left handed 776 00:49:25,120 --> 00:49:28,960 Speaker 1: and I'm black excellence. I love that you feel that way. Yeah, 777 00:49:29,160 --> 00:49:37,200 Speaker 1: my brother, I hate that you qualified it that way. 778 00:49:37,840 --> 00:49:39,960 Speaker 1: Like my left handed brother is the smartest out of 779 00:49:40,000 --> 00:49:42,560 Speaker 1: all of us. Like he's just so like he used 780 00:49:42,600 --> 00:49:45,239 Speaker 1: to read, you know, as for Tom Clamcy novels, and 781 00:49:45,280 --> 00:49:47,719 Speaker 1: like the fifth grade to read for fun. You know, 782 00:49:47,920 --> 00:49:50,440 Speaker 1: like that's what he wanted for Christmas. It was ridiculous. 783 00:49:50,480 --> 00:49:53,359 Speaker 1: Like he's a lawyer now, he's like super smart, just 784 00:49:54,400 --> 00:49:56,960 Speaker 1: knows everything. He could pick up instruments in a day 785 00:49:57,040 --> 00:50:01,279 Speaker 1: if he wants to. Like, no, we're very similar in that. Yeah, 786 00:50:02,239 --> 00:50:08,600 Speaker 1: I was also reading Clancy Young. I will say that 787 00:50:08,680 --> 00:50:11,400 Speaker 1: the last piece of information I'll give you, guys, is 788 00:50:11,440 --> 00:50:15,239 Speaker 1: that it is now more or less understood that there 789 00:50:15,360 --> 00:50:18,760 Speaker 1: is absolutely no difference between left and right handed people. 790 00:50:19,320 --> 00:50:22,320 Speaker 1: Uh that that we are all the same. But still, 791 00:50:22,360 --> 00:50:25,719 Speaker 1: despite that, there are plenty of nations that still work 792 00:50:25,840 --> 00:50:29,400 Speaker 1: pretty hard around the world to train their left handed 793 00:50:29,480 --> 00:50:32,560 Speaker 1: children out of that behavior. It is not a thing 794 00:50:32,680 --> 00:50:34,920 Speaker 1: lost in in time. It is, in fact a thing 795 00:50:35,000 --> 00:50:38,839 Speaker 1: that's currently happening across the world. I hate that. I'm 796 00:50:38,840 --> 00:50:41,160 Speaker 1: sorry they try to do it to me. They tried 797 00:50:41,200 --> 00:50:43,879 Speaker 1: to block my light. Yeah, but you fought through that. 798 00:50:44,239 --> 00:50:47,200 Speaker 1: You and you and Maggie's brother, you guys both fought 799 00:50:47,239 --> 00:50:49,640 Speaker 1: to the other side. And look at you now reading talk. 800 00:50:50,880 --> 00:50:55,879 Speaker 1: We're some clancy reading fucking pillars of Black excellence. Hell, yeah, 801 00:50:55,920 --> 00:50:59,200 Speaker 1: I don't care what it's a It's a beautiful journey 802 00:50:59,239 --> 00:51:02,480 Speaker 1: you've been through, and I'm glad that we did it together.
