WEBVTT - The Chicken or The Egg or Something Else (with Marie Faustin) 0:00:03.480 --> 0:00:06.400 George Washington was walking around with another nigga's teeth in 0:00:06.440 --> 0:00:08.520 his mouth. Do you think that motherfucker wasn't willing to 0:00:08.520 --> 0:00:12.479 eat a slave? He was? I know who was definitely 0:00:12.520 --> 0:00:19.680 eating slaves. He ain't. He didn't finish, but he ain't. 0:00:19.800 --> 0:00:23.840 He didn't finish. He took a nibble. He said, Coda, 0:00:23.880 --> 0:00:27.640 come in here, how your mama doing. She get a 0:00:27.720 --> 0:00:31.280 kid on the bed? Yeah, go ahead, and dropped the niggers. 0:00:38.920 --> 0:00:52.680 Chips in your bears are racists mostly money stuff. I 0:00:52.880 --> 0:00:58.800 can't tell me. Uh huh, there it is. You already 0:00:58.920 --> 0:01:02.240 know what the fuck is? There it is. Ladies and gentlemen, 0:01:02.360 --> 0:01:06.880 Welcome to another phenomenal episode of My Mama Told Me, 0:01:07.160 --> 0:01:10.720 the podcast where we dive deep deep into the pockets 0:01:10.720 --> 0:01:14.000 of black conspiracy theories and we finally work to prove 0:01:14.080 --> 0:01:18.479 that Nipsey Hustle did not, unfortunately get into heaven because 0:01:18.640 --> 0:01:22.400 Jesus Christ is a Latin king. It's it's sad news. 0:01:22.520 --> 0:01:24.680 But you can't show up to happen with all that 0:01:24.720 --> 0:01:29.040 blue on Nipsey. That's not how Jesus Christ gang bangs. 0:01:29.360 --> 0:01:32.200 You should have picked a better gang, a different gang. 0:01:32.240 --> 0:01:33.920 I'm not gonna say better. I'm not in any of 0:01:33.959 --> 0:01:37.839 these games. I'm an affiliated and hopefully Jesus just lets 0:01:37.880 --> 0:01:41.160 me walk by. Much like the gangbangers that I knew 0:01:41.200 --> 0:01:43.480 growing up, I just hope that Nigga just lets me 0:01:43.600 --> 0:01:45.880 walk on by and you don't bother me when it's 0:01:45.920 --> 0:01:49.520 time for me to make it up to the upper room. Hey, 0:01:49.560 --> 0:01:53.080 I'm your host, Lengthy Cournet. As always, I'm excited to 0:01:53.160 --> 0:01:55.400 be here. I'm having a pretty good day. I went 0:01:55.440 --> 0:01:58.520 outside today, which is a rare feat. I saw the 0:01:58.720 --> 0:02:01.320 son and I was like, bitch, where you been at? 0:02:01.480 --> 0:02:03.680 But anyway, that's on me. I should have been seeing 0:02:03.680 --> 0:02:06.320 this soun more often. Maybe my skin wouldn't be so 0:02:06.440 --> 0:02:10.760 pale and sickly. Anyway, my yesterday. She has beautiful skin, 0:02:10.960 --> 0:02:15.000 not pale or sickly at all, unbelievable skin, and she's 0:02:15.120 --> 0:02:17.480 very funny on top of that. It's a it's a 0:02:17.480 --> 0:02:21.440 hell of a combination. She's hysterical. You know her from 0:02:21.440 --> 0:02:24.400 her own podcast, The Unofficial Expert that she runs with 0:02:24.440 --> 0:02:27.960 Sydney Washington podcast I love very deeply. You know her 0:02:27.960 --> 0:02:31.280 from Comedy Central, but that's more importantly. She's a goddamned 0:02:31.280 --> 0:02:34.160 philanthropist and you all should know her from her work 0:02:34.320 --> 0:02:38.720 in philanthropy. What kind of philanthropy. She's been very vague 0:02:38.720 --> 0:02:40.960 about it. She won't tell me exactly what kind of 0:02:40.960 --> 0:02:43.400 philanthropy it is, but I bet it's pretty good and 0:02:43.480 --> 0:02:46.120 she's hilarious. Give it up for my guest. MS.

Super 0:03:22.120 --> 0:03:24.320 super excited to be here sharing my you know, my 0:03:24.440 --> 0:03:27.760 wisdom with you today and I can't wait to hear 0:03:27.800 --> 0:03:31.640 your wisdom. You came with a conspiracy theory that that 0:03:31.760 --> 0:03:34.120 I think we're gonna have to be careful with if 0:03:34.160 --> 0:03:36.480 I want to start us off right, I know we're 0:03:36.520 --> 0:03:39.040 gonna have to tiptoe a little bit in this motherfucker 0:03:39.240 --> 0:03:41.839 because you came with a hot one. You said, my 0:03:41.880 --> 0:03:52.040 Mama told me the chicken at Chinese restaurants isn't real. Yep, 0:03:52.280 --> 0:03:55.480 that's what she said. It's not. Okay, all right, okay, 0:03:55.560 --> 0:03:59.320 now tread carefully because this one, this is stuff. Let 0:03:59.360 --> 0:04:01.640 me just say, we're in the middle of Asian American 0:04:01.760 --> 0:04:05.720 and Pacific Islander Heritage Month. So this is this is 0:04:05.920 --> 0:04:09.000 at at the very least problematic and and in a 0:04:09.040 --> 0:04:14.040 lot of ways it's rooted in objectively racist and horrible 0:04:14.440 --> 0:04:18.240 stereotypes and just backwards thinking. So I want you to 0:04:18.240 --> 0:04:21.920 to tread carefully, tiptoe through this. Motherfucker. I'm a crip 0:04:21.960 --> 0:04:25.680 walk around this one. No, that's not what Jesus wants 0:04:25.720 --> 0:04:28.000 for you. Well, I'm just doing like Nipsey is doing 0:04:28.040 --> 0:04:30.640 it where he said he's not in heaven. That was 0:04:30.640 --> 0:04:42.680 actually really funny. The marathon continues downstairs. Oh man, this 0:04:42.839 --> 0:04:46.040 kid's gonna kill me. No, someday they're gonna grow up 0:04:46.080 --> 0:04:52.960 to murder me. Um yeah, I don't really hard time. 0:04:52.960 --> 0:04:55.240 I'm trying to figure out what I want to talk about. 0:04:55.360 --> 0:04:58.200 I mean, you know, I had agreed to do this 0:04:58.480 --> 0:05:02.720 like a month and like stop any time to think 0:05:02.760 --> 0:05:06.280 about Oh you mean that free podcast that wasn't at 0:05:06.279 --> 0:05:08.560 the front of your mind. Yeah, I get that. Yeah, 0:05:08.640 --> 0:05:11.039 but I had literally nothing else to think about. I 0:05:11.040 --> 0:05:13.240 could have thought about this deeply, like I could have 0:05:13.800 --> 0:05:17.920 ordered an encyclopedia set and research, you know what I mean. 0:05:18.400 --> 0:05:22.080 I actually I called my mom yesterday and I was like, 0:05:22.560 --> 0:05:27.120 some crazy stuff, like you be saying, you know how 0:05:27.160 --> 0:05:33.040 you've been talking just in your opinions, Yeah, just disrespectful 0:05:33.080 --> 0:05:35.880 conspiracy theories. And she just started going And then I 0:05:35.920 --> 0:05:39.720 remembered the Chinese food one because my mom is like, really, 0:05:40.760 --> 0:05:44.240 my mother is peak won't eat anybody else's food. She 0:05:44.400 --> 0:05:48.080 is queen of the we got food at home, right, 0:05:48.720 --> 0:05:52.680 She's like the inventor of who cooked that? Who made that? 0:05:54.480 --> 0:05:58.360 So she's who everybody is tweeting about at these uh 0:05:58.839 --> 0:06:02.559 metaphorical cook that's exactly about the food and the PoTA 0:06:03.200 --> 0:06:07.080 and whatnot. But my mom is an amazing cook. So like, 0:06:07.400 --> 0:06:09.520 she won't eat anybody else's food because she's like, well, 0:06:09.560 --> 0:06:11.359 I don't I don't know how to clean the chicken 0:06:11.680 --> 0:06:13.520 that doesn't look like they cooked it. Probably she won't. 0:06:13.520 --> 0:06:16.920 She doesn't eat out at all. So when we were little, 0:06:16.920 --> 0:06:19.600 we were like, we get pizza and she'd be like, no, 0:06:20.480 --> 0:06:23.000 pizza at the house, and it was like, it's gonna 0:06:23.000 --> 0:06:27.000 be healthy and it's gonna be on bread. It isn't right, 0:06:27.839 --> 0:06:31.680 let's gonna have weird spices and it that that ain't dominoes. Yes, 0:06:31.880 --> 0:06:36.360 that's you. That's your ship that and she's from Haiti, 0:06:36.440 --> 0:06:41.800 so it's like like Haitian, it's on cassa have curry 0:06:41.839 --> 0:06:44.280 on it. I don't like this. That's just like is 0:06:44.360 --> 0:06:47.599 this deep froud? Like is this pork? What? He is? This? 0:06:48.680 --> 0:06:51.600 So the thing that she always says, and she my 0:06:51.640 --> 0:06:55.599 mom is like a really good speaker, Like she tells 0:06:55.640 --> 0:07:00.400 stories and she's usually lying or making stuff up, but 0:07:00.440 --> 0:07:04.240 like she speaks so convincingly that you just have to 0:07:04.320 --> 0:07:11.600 believe her. I mean, do you listen, it's not my 0:07:11.680 --> 0:07:15.480 mother my We all have things that I think our 0:07:15.520 --> 0:07:18.920 friends find super endearing about our parents and we're like yeah, yeah, yeah, 0:07:19.000 --> 0:07:22.120 But I was there the whole time. This is endearing 0:07:22.160 --> 0:07:24.120 for me. I'm not actually enjoying this at all, But 0:07:24.160 --> 0:07:26.960 go crazy. I'm glad you like my mom's lies, right, 0:07:27.080 --> 0:07:29.240 I'm like, well, wait till you get the chapter twenty nine. 0:07:29.520 --> 0:07:34.000 This is a twist. She said stuff. It's like living 0:07:34.040 --> 0:07:37.480 in in the arl Stein book. Right, It's like the 0:07:38.160 --> 0:07:41.520 one lie that I remember her saying that I believed 0:07:42.040 --> 0:07:46.160 for years is my sister has dimples, right, And I 0:07:46.200 --> 0:07:48.160 was like, I don't have dimples. Why why don't I 0:07:48.160 --> 0:07:50.960 have dimples? And my mom was like, well, when babies 0:07:51.000 --> 0:07:57.280 are young, you give them dimples by squeeze is really tight. 0:07:57.920 --> 0:07:59.280 And I was like, that's how you get dimples. And 0:07:59.280 --> 0:08:02.000 I went to school and I just thought that and 0:08:03.400 --> 0:08:06.080 I wasn't. I was met like in sixth grade. I 0:08:06.120 --> 0:08:08.720 was way too old to still think this. And I 0:08:08.840 --> 0:08:13.080 love that because that also implies that your mother, for 0:08:13.240 --> 0:08:15.920 whatever reason, was like I'm gonna squeeze this one's face. 0:08:16.080 --> 0:08:20.040 I ain't squeezing that little one. No no, no, like 0:08:21.720 --> 0:08:24.000 I ain't gonna make this one special to no no, 0:08:24.000 --> 0:08:26.600 no no. Right. So I was like in school and 0:08:26.640 --> 0:08:29.800 I said it, and everybody was like the fuck. Like 0:08:29.880 --> 0:08:36.920 everybody was like, oh, Marie's dumb, dumb. And then y'all 0:08:36.920 --> 0:08:39.760 know Marie's thought this whole time, We thought she was 0:08:39.840 --> 0:08:43.240 just talking. She don't. They're like the glasses are fake, y'all. 0:08:43.320 --> 0:08:52.080 She so she is filled with all kinds of nonsense. 0:08:52.080 --> 0:08:55.079 It sounds like and one of the things that that 0:08:55.240 --> 0:08:58.479 is nonsense that she shared with you was the possibility 0:08:58.559 --> 0:09:02.520 that the chicken that Chinese food restaurants it isn't real, yes, 0:09:02.679 --> 0:09:04.720 because my mom is like, well, you know, Chinese people 0:09:04.760 --> 0:09:07.800 eat everything, right, She's like, they eat all types of meat. 0:09:08.200 --> 0:09:11.840 So she's like they eat horse and cat and rat 0:09:12.160 --> 0:09:16.560 and pig and five golden rings. Like she lifts all 0:09:16.640 --> 0:09:20.520 these things. And I was like, oh, and then, you know, 0:09:20.600 --> 0:09:23.120 I don't know if you know anything about the what'sapp 0:09:23.240 --> 0:09:26.840 culture a little bit. My mother lives in Ghana now 0:09:27.640 --> 0:09:30.240 and so she moved out there to be with a 0:09:30.280 --> 0:09:32.680 man who she loves deeply. And Okay, so her and 0:09:32.720 --> 0:09:36.640 my little sister living Ghana, and so she is slowly 0:09:36.679 --> 0:09:40.080 becoming a WhatsApp lady in a way that throws me 0:09:40.160 --> 0:09:42.959 off every single time. But yeah, tell me more about 0:09:43.000 --> 0:09:46.960 the WhatsApp culture. Okay, So peak WhatsApp culture is like 0:09:47.000 --> 0:09:51.280 they send like recipes and those like glitterally like happy 0:09:51.320 --> 0:09:53.199 things giving means you know what I'm talking, it'll be 0:09:53.280 --> 0:09:59.079 like happy Holidays and it's like it's like my Space background. Yeah, 0:09:59.320 --> 0:10:02.560 it's got a real friends survibe to it where it's like, yes, 0:10:02.840 --> 0:10:06.240 the technology has advanced beyond this, you could you could 0:10:06.240 --> 0:10:09.240 send some other ship. You could send a clear like 0:10:09.280 --> 0:10:13.320 something clear. It's like they send like Bigfoot videos, like 0:10:13.360 --> 0:10:17.720 it's always like a grainy quality film, but like some 0:10:17.920 --> 0:10:20.440 there's like a video that was floating around of like 0:10:21.080 --> 0:10:24.880 some like Asian person like skinning something and there was 0:10:24.920 --> 0:10:27.760 like a stack of little bodies anyway, So yes, it 0:10:27.880 --> 0:10:31.120 was like it's there's a picture somewhere that my mom 0:10:31.520 --> 0:10:35.280 saw or somebody what's app to her and it was 0:10:36.080 --> 0:10:40.920 like little piles of mice or something skinned and that 0:10:41.200 --> 0:10:44.840 is my mom was like, see, I told you that's 0:10:44.880 --> 0:10:50.559 what they're eating when you get Chinese food. And it's like, girl, 0:10:51.080 --> 0:10:58.960 I mean maybe, but but I don't know. Here's the 0:10:58.960 --> 0:11:03.520 thing is, And this is a conspiracy theory, a rumor 0:11:03.640 --> 0:11:07.560 that I think I've heard, we've all heard for for generations. 0:11:08.040 --> 0:11:10.920 And it's always so funny to me to think about 0:11:10.960 --> 0:11:13.520 those kinds of videos where they point to this one 0:11:13.600 --> 0:11:16.959 individual who's skinning a bunch of rats and stacking their 0:11:17.000 --> 0:11:19.760 bodies on top of each other. It's like, how much 0:11:19.800 --> 0:11:22.560 of that is Chinese people and how much of that 0:11:22.720 --> 0:11:27.400 is just that one nigga who really likes how rat tastes, Like, 0:11:27.520 --> 0:11:29.560 why does that have to be all of them? Why 0:11:29.559 --> 0:11:32.160 can't that just be that one weird motherfucker who's out 0:11:32.160 --> 0:11:36.360 here eating rats rat kebabs. Yes, but because of that, 0:11:36.640 --> 0:11:41.000 like I can't eat Chinese food as freely as my 0:11:41.120 --> 0:11:44.680 friends eat it, right, Like, so I can only order 0:11:44.760 --> 0:11:47.040 like I'll eat shrimp and I'll eat the chicken wings 0:11:47.040 --> 0:11:49.400 because those are shaped like what they're supposed to be. 0:11:49.840 --> 0:11:52.679 I'm not getting beef and broccoli. I'm not getting chicken 0:11:52.679 --> 0:11:57.479 and broccoli because those are weird shapes. Yeah, and I 0:11:57.480 --> 0:12:01.720 I will say that while while this is and who 0:12:01.840 --> 0:12:05.240 we better tread fucking carefully, But while this is I 0:12:05.240 --> 0:12:09.080 think a conspiracy theory that has many elements of like 0:12:09.240 --> 0:12:14.480 racist backwards thinking ingrained in it. There are little things 0:12:14.559 --> 0:12:17.719 that happen where you're like, damn, maybe these racist motherfuckers 0:12:17.720 --> 0:12:20.960 are right right, But like, my mother is very particular 0:12:20.960 --> 0:12:24.000 about chicken in general, Like she refuses to buy chicken 0:12:24.000 --> 0:12:27.280 breast from the supermarket because she grew up on a farm, 0:12:27.440 --> 0:12:30.000 she had chickens, she had goats, blah blah blah blah. 0:12:30.440 --> 0:12:32.240 But we'll be at the supermarket and she'll be like, 0:12:32.520 --> 0:12:34.720 I've never seen a chicken with breast that big. That's 0:12:34.880 --> 0:12:39.280 not chicken. You think when you think about how small 0:12:39.320 --> 0:12:43.520 a chicken is, the breast me real juicy. Sometimes hey 0:12:43.559 --> 0:12:46.640 and listened, and there's enough scientific evidence. I don't know 0:12:46.640 --> 0:12:51.000 if you've ever seen like supersized Me, which obviously comes 0:12:51.040 --> 0:12:54.760 with a little bit of uh it's it's problematic in 0:12:54.800 --> 0:12:56.679 its own form. But one of the things that they 0:12:56.720 --> 0:12:59.920 talk about in Supersize Me is the type of hormones 0:13:00.040 --> 0:13:03.520 that they inject into the fucking McDonald's chickens so that 0:13:03.600 --> 0:13:05.959 they the titties are so big they can't even move. 0:13:06.200 --> 0:13:09.480 They're just like alive for a moment. They cut the 0:13:09.520 --> 0:13:13.199 titties off and then it's done, and it's like, ah, fuck, 0:13:13.440 --> 0:13:16.720 your mom's right, those titties aren't natural. But at the 0:13:16.720 --> 0:13:21.000 same time, maybe it's still chicken. It's just juice step chicken. 0:13:21.840 --> 0:13:24.920 Have you ever seen the video of the chicken that 0:13:25.000 --> 0:13:26.600 was coming It was like from a couple of years ago. 0:13:26.679 --> 0:13:28.880 It's like a big gass chicken coming out of a 0:13:28.960 --> 0:13:33.560 coop and it looks like foghorn Leghorn, like like he 0:13:33.679 --> 0:13:37.440 comes out and it's bigger than the house, and it's 0:13:37.480 --> 0:13:41.040 like it's got like decks and albs, and it's like, 0:13:41.160 --> 0:13:45.480 what muscles, it looks like it's wearing like snow pants 0:13:45.559 --> 0:13:49.439 and a full like bubble jacket. Yes, like that's that's 0:13:49.520 --> 0:13:52.240 not a normal chicken. No, it looked like it just 0:13:52.280 --> 0:13:56.880 got off a ski lift. It's huge. Those those videos 0:13:56.880 --> 0:13:59.600 always bug me because there's always somebody who comes in 0:13:59.679 --> 0:14:02.600 after words and it's like, well, that's actually the uh, 0:14:02.679 --> 0:14:06.640 the doctor mccoka and chicken, and you wouldn't recognize it 0:14:06.720 --> 0:14:09.719 from its big thick feathers, And it's like, bitch, if 0:14:09.760 --> 0:14:11.960 that's been around this whole time, then you need to 0:14:12.000 --> 0:14:14.199 let me know from the beginning, why are we Why 0:14:14.200 --> 0:14:16.800 do we keep talking about these same six pokemon. I'm 0:14:16.840 --> 0:14:20.800 trying to see, I'm trying to catch them, all right percent. 0:14:21.440 --> 0:14:24.760 But I'm saying that, and I still eat meat. I'm 0:14:24.760 --> 0:14:27.880 still gonna keep eating it, but I'm not eating that 0:14:28.360 --> 0:14:32.120 hopefully because only by like the tiny like baby wings. 0:14:32.480 --> 0:14:35.720 And that's when I'm cooking at my house. But I 0:14:35.720 --> 0:14:40.360 don't know. The stuff that we eat is sometimes it's 0:14:40.440 --> 0:14:43.880 kind of crazy, you know it is. And so so 0:14:44.000 --> 0:14:47.760 with that, you you do hold a little bit of 0:14:47.880 --> 0:14:50.760 fear from the stuff that your mother has said to 0:14:50.800 --> 0:14:54.360 you about chicken and about these things from these restaurants. 0:14:54.640 --> 0:14:58.600 I'm curious to know how much your mother is afraid 0:14:58.640 --> 0:15:03.120 of other ethnic foods, Like is it just Chinese or 0:15:03.160 --> 0:15:06.080 is she like, you know, the fish at Japanese restaurant, 0:15:07.040 --> 0:15:11.040 you know that's radiated, that would make it clitter is long? 0:15:11.120 --> 0:15:14.960 If that makes you clit long? Exactly you sound? Have you? 0:15:15.080 --> 0:15:16.960 Did you speak to my mother today? We had a 0:15:17.000 --> 0:15:19.560 phone call ahead of time because the little research on 0:15:19.720 --> 0:15:22.240 may in other things that my mother doesn't eat and 0:15:22.280 --> 0:15:24.520 would not buy for us. Ice cream from the ice 0:15:24.560 --> 0:15:29.200 cream truck. WHOA, because she was like, they don't have 0:15:29.240 --> 0:15:33.480 a bathroom on that truck. They pee in buckets on 0:15:33.520 --> 0:15:36.560 that track, and then they don't wash their hands, and 0:15:36.600 --> 0:15:39.320 they give you that SpongeBob ice cream with them pepe 0:15:39.520 --> 0:15:47.560 hands and oh ship, fuck waiter guy, Hold on, what 0:15:47.640 --> 0:15:53.040 the fuck? I that's never occurred to me. Where are 0:15:53.080 --> 0:15:55.760 they peeing and pooping on the truck? You're on that 0:15:55.840 --> 0:15:58.800 truck for for eight to ten hours a day, rolling 0:15:58.840 --> 0:16:02.560 through neighborhoods, if not thing else, interacting with the grubby 0:16:02.600 --> 0:16:05.760 little fingers of small children, and you know we don't 0:16:05.840 --> 0:16:10.000 see any wash stations back there. This is devastating. My 0:16:10.040 --> 0:16:11.440 Mom's like, you see, that's why they don't have the 0:16:11.480 --> 0:16:14.880 windows back there, so like a poop on the trip 0:16:15.000 --> 0:16:17.920 and I'm like, what, I just want to get a cone. 0:16:17.960 --> 0:16:22.120 I got cones at the house, so I'll make your 0:16:22.160 --> 0:16:24.960 ice cream. Baby, don't even trip about that. I'm churning 0:16:25.040 --> 0:16:27.960 the cream right now. But we always had you know 0:16:28.120 --> 0:16:29.960 the plus if that is, we always had ice cream 0:16:30.000 --> 0:16:31.760 sandwiches at the house. But it was like, it's not 0:16:31.800 --> 0:16:35.600 the same. I want to eat the truck ice cream. Yeah, 0:16:35.680 --> 0:16:38.960 there's nothing like a hard earned ice cream from a 0:16:39.000 --> 0:16:41.600 potential pedophile that makes you feel, you know what I mean, 0:16:41.640 --> 0:16:44.240 like this man might snatch you. And that's kind of nice. 0:16:44.360 --> 0:16:45.960 When you get the ice cream and you make it 0:16:46.040 --> 0:16:54.880 home and there's music playing, and you're like, but she's 0:16:54.920 --> 0:16:58.480 not buying that. She's never had sushi. She will never 0:16:58.520 --> 0:17:03.080 have sushi. Sure, but I will say every year minus 0:17:03.160 --> 0:17:06.320 this is when that just passed. But every New Year's 0:17:06.440 --> 0:17:09.119 Eve we would go. We would take my mom to 0:17:09.160 --> 0:17:12.600 habbachi and is the only thing that she would eat 0:17:12.680 --> 0:17:14.879 because they cooked the food in front of you, and 0:17:16.119 --> 0:17:18.920 she likes the little volcano. So you know, okay, she's 0:17:18.960 --> 0:17:22.320 an onion volcano kind of girl. She ain't here for 0:17:22.680 --> 0:17:26.720 ice cream off of trucks, but she's down. She said, 0:17:26.720 --> 0:17:29.280 I'm watching to make the rice. She will not drink 0:17:29.800 --> 0:17:33.680 miso soup though. She's like, this is hand wash water. 0:17:35.119 --> 0:17:40.680 This is dirty hand wash water. So I guess this 0:17:40.800 --> 0:17:44.040 is all very fascinating and groundbreaking stuff. And I guess 0:17:44.080 --> 0:17:47.560 what comes to mind is why isn't she bothered by 0:17:47.600 --> 0:17:51.720 the potential? Like there's no proof that that's chicken at 0:17:51.720 --> 0:17:55.840 the habbachi right, like it comes damn near pre what 0:17:56.200 --> 0:17:58.159 they served it to you, as they just chop it 0:17:58.240 --> 0:18:01.160 up real fine. So she not she's not getting the chicken, 0:18:01.200 --> 0:18:03.960 she's getting the shrimp because the shrimp is still shrimp 0:18:04.000 --> 0:18:07.840 shape anything that is shaped like the thing that she 0:18:08.280 --> 0:18:12.399 ordered exactly exactly. And even then, like she's watching us 0:18:12.880 --> 0:18:15.399 eat our stuff and she's making faces and the dude 0:18:15.440 --> 0:18:20.040 is clocked in looking at her face. She's at his job, 0:18:20.160 --> 0:18:25.600 like no, and then you know, they go around and 0:18:25.600 --> 0:18:28.560 they like like spray the saki in everybody's mouth. She 0:18:28.640 --> 0:18:30.760 likes that. She's good at that. It's actually scary how 0:18:30.800 --> 0:18:33.159 good at that she is. So she's here for the 0:18:33.200 --> 0:18:36.000 turn up. She just say she ain't working around with 0:18:36.160 --> 0:18:42.280 rare meats, new new, and nothing exotical. No exotic meats 0:18:42.320 --> 0:18:45.160 at my mom's house, I mean at the restaurants. But 0:18:45.560 --> 0:18:49.600 I mean it's funny and it makes me kind of 0:18:49.640 --> 0:18:52.800 how I am right now. But like, I feel like 0:18:52.920 --> 0:18:55.720 I have been cooking really well during the pandemic, and 0:18:55.760 --> 0:18:57.720 then it got to the point that I was like, no, 0:18:58.359 --> 0:19:02.240 I'm not watching another four that's fair. I'm not washing 0:19:02.359 --> 0:19:06.920 another pan. I'm done cooking. And sometimes I'll just sit 0:19:06.920 --> 0:19:11.840 here and be hungry for as like, well, I can't 0:19:11.840 --> 0:19:17.040 eat out because those foreign meats might supposed to be 0:19:17.359 --> 0:19:20.920 but I'm not cooking for myself. So yeah, But honestly, 0:19:20.960 --> 0:19:22.840 this is like peek. This is the most in my 0:19:22.880 --> 0:19:25.760 life that I've ever eating out, like ordered food out 0:19:26.000 --> 0:19:30.200 and me and the delivery, Hey, how you doing? Come down? 0:19:30.800 --> 0:19:32.840 But I just I'm at that point now where it's 0:19:32.880 --> 0:19:35.040 like I'm gonna eat the fake meat, I'm gonna eat 0:19:35.720 --> 0:19:40.359 the dirty hand washed water. I'm just gonna eat. It's 0:19:40.400 --> 0:19:43.760 all I've I've always maintained that feeling, and I don't 0:19:43.760 --> 0:19:47.000 know if it's good or bad, And I've expressed this 0:19:47.040 --> 0:19:50.360 a few times, but my taste buds are are broken, right, 0:19:50.440 --> 0:19:53.320 Like they don't work very well. I've I've had multiple 0:19:53.400 --> 0:19:56.920 runnings where like people have been like, this is poison, 0:19:57.040 --> 0:19:59.159 and I'm like, I don't know. It tastes fine to me. 0:19:59.680 --> 0:20:02.040 Is this because you're Is this because you're half way? 0:20:02.200 --> 0:20:05.119 I reckon that that blaze is part I don't. I 0:20:05.160 --> 0:20:09.560 don't know for sure. My dad similarly, does not seem 0:20:09.640 --> 0:20:12.880 to have a very discerning palette, and that way like 0:20:12.960 --> 0:20:15.880 maybe I just got his goofy ass mouth or maybe 0:20:16.160 --> 0:20:18.439 it's the white devil's mouth and I got to unpack 0:20:18.520 --> 0:20:22.159 that someday, okay, through this work. But I will say 0:20:22.200 --> 0:20:27.399 that I've always taken solace in not knowing what the 0:20:27.440 --> 0:20:31.399 ship is, because if I know too much, then I'm unhappy. Right, 0:20:31.920 --> 0:20:33.760 if I just make peace with the fact that it 0:20:33.800 --> 0:20:36.399 could be chicken, it could be a pile of recks, 0:20:36.680 --> 0:20:39.800 and either way, this motherfucker tastes good with orange on it, 0:20:39.840 --> 0:20:44.440 and it's like, okay, yeah, I'll be okay, it's good. Well, 0:20:44.480 --> 0:20:48.080 can we talk about like what a McK nugget is? Like, 0:20:48.320 --> 0:20:52.200 is that is where is all this chicken coming from? 0:20:52.240 --> 0:20:55.119 Because it's like like, what is a nicknugget? And what 0:20:55.320 --> 0:20:57.800 is Kentucky Fried Chicken? Because they can't call it that 0:20:57.840 --> 0:21:01.880 no more. It's just KFC. Yeah, they don't that they 0:21:01.920 --> 0:21:05.680 can't call it. I think they can't call it Kentucky 0:21:05.720 --> 0:21:12.200 Fried Chicken anymore. Oh the chicken is Wait, which part 0:21:12.240 --> 0:21:14.720 of that that? Let's unpack this because which part of 0:21:14.760 --> 0:21:17.879 that k F and C is the problem? Is it 0:21:18.000 --> 0:21:21.160 the K? Because if that's the problem, then that's fine, 0:21:21.200 --> 0:21:23.720 they're not making it in Kentucky. But if it's the C, 0:21:24.560 --> 0:21:27.120 then we've got a bigger issue. I think it might 0:21:27.160 --> 0:21:29.760 be the C, but I've actually never thought maybe it's 0:21:29.800 --> 0:21:36.320 the K. Maybe they can't call it Kentucky. May get 0:21:36.320 --> 0:21:40.399 in Boston, like you got this in Albany. This is 0:21:40.960 --> 0:21:49.080 Kentucky Fried Chicken from Albuquerque's Albuquerque Fried Chicken. Wow. Yeah. 0:21:49.119 --> 0:21:52.719 I think maybe there's something a little easier in just 0:21:52.840 --> 0:21:56.159 saying I don't know, and I'm at peace. But to 0:21:56.280 --> 0:21:59.960 your mother's point, she's gonna live her life, maybe longer 0:22:00.080 --> 0:22:02.800 and healthier, because she's like, I don't know, and I'm 0:22:02.840 --> 0:22:06.200 not at peace, and I refuse to settle for any 0:22:06.400 --> 0:22:10.520 unverified meats exactly, and my mother's skin looks great, and 0:22:10.640 --> 0:22:13.320 she just puts vasselin on it. She don't use no serums, 0:22:13.440 --> 0:22:17.760 no hyaluronic acid. She's putting put proleum jelly on her 0:22:17.760 --> 0:22:22.200 face too, and her face still looks good. And it's like, well, sis, 0:22:22.240 --> 0:22:25.280 I'm gonna use these serums, but alto eating, you know, 0:22:25.359 --> 0:22:28.200 I eat stuff that she would never ever even put 0:22:28.200 --> 0:22:30.479 in her mouth. Yeah, your mother is greasing up like 0:22:30.520 --> 0:22:33.159 she's going to have a fist fight. And somehow she's 0:22:33.280 --> 0:22:36.199 thriving me while the rest of us are fucking growing 0:22:36.280 --> 0:22:38.560 boils out of our skin because we won't leave these 0:22:38.600 --> 0:22:42.400 meats alone. And we're all depressed, and my mother is happy. 0:22:42.560 --> 0:22:46.359 She's a beast, especially if there was an onion volcano nearby. 0:22:46.400 --> 0:22:49.760 It sounds like she's a hundred percent at feasting her 0:22:49.760 --> 0:22:57.479 best life. She's oh okay, it's like, all right, we're 0:22:57.520 --> 0:23:00.520 gonna take a break. We'll be back with Mormari files More. 0:23:00.720 --> 0:23:18.879 My mama told me the are that how is my 0:23:18.960 --> 0:23:22.040 man supposed to schmeat his meat with this ship? Bro? 0:23:22.160 --> 0:23:26.320 What the fuck? Yeah, we're back here with mar Marie Foston. More. 0:23:26.520 --> 0:23:30.160 My mama told me, we're still talking about the unaccredited 0:23:30.280 --> 0:23:35.000 meats that are possibly served at certain Chinese restaurants, and 0:23:35.080 --> 0:23:38.399 whether or not that is in fact that the threat 0:23:38.480 --> 0:23:41.159 that Marie's mother has told her it is all these years. 0:23:41.440 --> 0:23:45.280 I'm curious to know if she knows specifically what the 0:23:45.320 --> 0:23:49.400 meat is. If it's not chicken, what is it? Oh? 0:23:49.400 --> 0:23:52.520 On the phone with me yesterday, she listed literally every 0:23:52.520 --> 0:23:59.760 single animal on all McDonald's farm except chicken. And I 0:23:59.880 --> 0:24:04.000 was like, how do you don't even have any Asian friends? Right? 0:24:04.720 --> 0:24:07.000 It's not like you like went to someone's house and 0:24:07.040 --> 0:24:10.720 they served you and you like saw the door swing 0:24:10.800 --> 0:24:13.840 open and you caught them like killing a snake. You 0:24:14.040 --> 0:24:17.760 just you're pulling this out your booty, right, this is 0:24:17.840 --> 0:24:21.119 just coming from a place of speculation. You you haven't 0:24:21.119 --> 0:24:24.159 talked to an Asian person, You're not you're not checking 0:24:24.200 --> 0:24:27.280 in on any of your Chinese restaurant owners. This is 0:24:28.720 --> 0:24:32.080 you're just making it up. But then she speaks in 0:24:32.119 --> 0:24:34.680 a way that you're like, well, what is General SOS? 0:24:34.720 --> 0:24:38.920 But what is what is that? Who is that? That's 0:24:38.960 --> 0:24:41.840 the question. That's an important question, And I don't think 0:24:41.840 --> 0:24:44.560 anybody truly knows. It was just I think General SO 0:24:44.880 --> 0:24:47.199 was just a dude that white people made up to 0:24:47.240 --> 0:24:51.040 be able to make chicken more palatable for everybody back 0:24:51.080 --> 0:24:55.440 here in America. But who knows. I'm glad that your 0:24:55.480 --> 0:24:59.600 mother talked a little bit about all these alternative meat substitutes, 0:24:59.680 --> 0:25:03.720 because when I went going into the research and started 0:25:03.760 --> 0:25:06.200 looking for some of these substitutes, one of the first 0:25:06.240 --> 0:25:09.159
