Speaker 1: I don't fight children for pennies. But like, you don't
Speaker 1: see me fight fight children. Let's not Dave, it's me
Speaker 1: or like the bottom, Yeah it's not. It's not the top.
Speaker 1: That's an adult. He's like, y'all fight a kid that's
Speaker 1: ninety eight below. I don't agree with my chips in
Speaker 1: your racist also money stuff. I can't tell me bang
Speaker 1: bang skeet, skeet. I'm taking legs since you're troll and
Speaker 1: I don't give a sheet. I can't welcome to my
Speaker 1: told me the podcast where we dive deep, deep into
Speaker 1: the pockets of black conspiracy theories, and we worked to
Speaker 1: prove that Mark Morrison's nineteen nineties six hidden Return of
Speaker 1: the Max was in fact financed by Big McDonald's Follow
Speaker 1: the Money, Brother. You're thinking you think a British man
Speaker 1: wrote that with no help from the good Night Oh Ship.
Speaker 1: Come on, yeah, Grimace in the booth, Grimace, Grimace made it.
Speaker 1: What would what would Grimace's drop? Grimaces drop something about
Speaker 1: a big booty girl. He's sitting on something, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean? Grimmace thick so whatever, thick purple made it. Oh,
Speaker 1: I love that thick purple. And then because I never
Speaker 1: believed that that guy wrote that song. It just didn't
Speaker 1: feel correct. Yeah, Mark, he's an interesting dude. He's like
Speaker 1: done jail time and ship. He's he's He's not surprised me.
Speaker 1: If you were like the guy who wrote Return of
Speaker 1: the Mac, it's been locked up, I'd be like, that's
Speaker 1: where he wrote it. The guy that wrote Return of
Speaker 1: the Mac didn't stay free the whole time. Crazy man
Speaker 1: that Return of the Mac paid all the Texas insane.
Speaker 1: I'm your host and one of your hosts, David Boy,
Speaker 1: I'm legs than Kerman and and goddamn. We were coming
Speaker 1: in hot per usual, but but our guest today this
Speaker 1: is exciting. She she's very hilarious, so talented. She she
Speaker 1: didn't come in hot. She came in very polite. I
Speaker 1: think I'd say she came in reasonable. Maybe she's gonna
Speaker 1: get unreasonable and in that way that would make the
Speaker 1: show very exciting. I'd say if she comes in how
Speaker 1: she comes in and says some real wild ship. Before
Speaker 1: she even says hello to us, she says something haunting
Speaker 1: that that's really gonna set the tone for the rest
Speaker 1: of this step coming and can't read oh ship, and
Speaker 1: it's like, god damn Jessica, and we didn't even introduce you.
Speaker 1: But she's amazing. She's a writer, she's she's a comedian
Speaker 1: and improv person, but you know her specifically as one
Speaker 1: of the host and writer for New Rock Stars. Give
Speaker 1: it up for Jessica Clemenay. So, first of all, I
Speaker 1: was about to come in about the Hamburgler because you
Speaker 1: guys were like, Grimace drops, and I was like, no,
Speaker 1: but the Hamburger definitely drop because he's been to prison
Speaker 1: a couple of times. He steals. Also, side note, this
Speaker 1: is just stupid and take it as you will. Grim
Speaker 1: is actually just a giant taste bud. He's not like
Speaker 1: a chicken nugget. He's not a big goobergast. But referred
Speaker 1: exactly what the I was I should because you were
Speaker 1: when I heard when I found it Outmace is someone
Speaker 1: is someone who is constantly looking for dark skinned representation.
Speaker 1: I can't say I love that grimaces black. I thought
Speaker 1: he was dark, but now he's just a taste. But
Speaker 1: he's just he's really pink dog. That's truly maybe one
Speaker 1: of the If that's not proof that whatever is in
Speaker 1: McDonald's this poisoning our brains and making it because who
Speaker 1: came up with you know what I mean? Like, that's
Speaker 1: the best y'all could do. Was like, Okay, a chicken,
Speaker 1: a man dresses the clown, a handburglar, and of course
Speaker 1: a giant taste bud. Oh, that's a cocaine idea. It's
Speaker 1: also like, are they like looking at their tongue in
Speaker 1: the mirror and then just chose that little thing. I
Speaker 1: was like, maybe we should make this into a mascot. Also,
Speaker 1: shouldn't he be pink? Yes? She should be pink. He
Speaker 1: should be pink. He should be like a lot of things.
Speaker 1: But if he's pink, that's a lot different vibe than
Speaker 1: I don't like if you make think we're talking about
Speaker 1: it a different taste, a different taste, but a different taste.
Speaker 1: But yeah, why and I gotta say sport, you know, Lauren,
Speaker 1: Laura saved us. God's are here today. God don't got
Speaker 1: the riverside. You don't know how to log in at all, Jessica,
Speaker 1: we're clearly the Shenanigans. The Shenanigans are rich here. But
Speaker 1: but we're excited because you came to us with a
Speaker 1: conspiracy theory that that personally I don't think I've ever
Speaker 1: heard BORI, where do you fall in this? I had
Speaker 1: never I had never heard this. This is exciting. Yeah,
Speaker 1: this was new for for both of us. It's very exciting,
Speaker 1: you said. My mama told me always let a man
Speaker 1: walk in the house first on New Year's. Mm hmmm,
Speaker 1: tell me more. The thing is, so my family from Memphis, Tennessee,
Speaker 1: my family from Ephis, Tennessee. There's I have thirteen aunts
Speaker 1: and uncles, and I know my my grandma went off,
Speaker 1: she popped off, go off, she popped in, popped out.
Speaker 1: But it was like my family's hell of superstitious, very superstitious.
Speaker 1: And every time every New Year's came around, it was like,
Speaker 1: let your brother walk in the house first. Let's go
Speaker 1: and walk in the house first. My grandma hated my grandfather.
Speaker 1: She was like, he's not allowed to pass the first step,
Speaker 1: not allowed first past the first step. She kicked him out.
Speaker 1: She's like, don't let him in. But on New Year's
Speaker 1: that was the one day he could come back. Was
Speaker 1: the walk in and then walk right back out. Because
Speaker 1: it was just like it's a good luck charm, I
Speaker 1: guess to have a man walk in for so was
Speaker 1: he a man walks in before every woman, or just
Speaker 1: like happy New Year, and then what if you celebrate
Speaker 1: New Year's inside the house? Yeah, that was the thing.
Speaker 1: That was the thing. My grandpa. She would stay in
Speaker 1: that house until my grandfather would come in. This was
Speaker 1: also we had like I had like seven or eight uncles,
Speaker 1: so they're like if all of them were out on
Speaker 1: New Year's, all of them had to be out. My
Speaker 1: grandma would wait. She would just wait, and in theory,
Speaker 1: a woman comes to the door and she says, get
Speaker 1: your ass out of here, turned that ass back and
Speaker 1: around legit. My mom would make me stay. We my
Speaker 1: mom didn't drive, and me and my mom would wait
Speaker 1: outside and mccolda New Year Holy ship. And so my
Speaker 1: brother came back from whatever function he was at, just
Speaker 1: not celebrating New Year's because your grandma didn't want to
Speaker 1: be cursed. It was it was a superstition. And I
Speaker 1: genuinely was like, oh, maybe just like all black families
Speaker 1: do it, but clearly here about it. I never even
Speaker 1: I never even what, man, I have so many questions
Speaker 1: answer them. I'm here. Firstly about your grandfather. He seems
Speaker 1: like he's like, yeah, yeah, you can leave me but
Speaker 1: you still don't call me all New Year, everything New Year.
Speaker 1: Hold up, here come Fernice needing stuff from your boy.
Speaker 1: I wish I, oh my god, I wish my mom
Speaker 1: was going to tell the story because it's just so
Speaker 1: funny of her being like like she would scream, she'd
Speaker 1: be like, don't you step past that step every day?
Speaker 1: Every day, but on New Year's he could come in
Speaker 1: the house, Wenna, turn his ass right back out, right
Speaker 1: back out. Man. That's great because I think if you're
Speaker 1: going to be a lifelong bachelor, you should at least
Speaker 1: also have thirteen kids. I do feel that way. I
Speaker 1: do feel that way in my heart because like you
Speaker 1: know what I mean, it's like the best of both worlds,
Speaker 1: is it? It's not the worst that I guess. I
Speaker 1: assume if he had thirteen, he didn't stop He wasn't
Speaker 1: stopping practice. This is not about your grandfather. This is
Speaker 1: about this is I could go on for hours about
Speaker 1: that innovator David wants men be as Mentee. Hey, I'll
Speaker 1: call him up. I'll call him up right now. Ask
Speaker 1: him if he's looking for an apprentice, then how did
Speaker 1: you do it? How did you do that? How would
Speaker 1: you get to go back in the house. How did
Speaker 1: you did you ever stop? I don't know if you
Speaker 1: ever stopped. He was wild, he was wild. He was
Speaker 1: always the one that was like drinking around the block. Again,
Speaker 1: this isn't about my grandfather. Yeah, this is not about
Speaker 1: that is another episode which I cannot wait for. Uh,
Speaker 1: here's my question. Did she ever? Did she ever put
Speaker 1: a spec specificity to it, like was she ever like
Speaker 1: a man has to walk in the house, otherwise it's
Speaker 1: ten years of bad luck or otherwise none of the
Speaker 1: women could ever get pregnant or otherwise, like like was
Speaker 1: there ever? Like was there ever like a consequence given
Speaker 1: you think you think right, but like if you asked,
Speaker 1: you got hit. So it was like a thing that
Speaker 1: we just never asked. It was like my yeah, it
Speaker 1: was like that's also what your tradition and to ask, Yeah,
Speaker 1: just when you don't want to give an answer. And
Speaker 1: it could have been anything. I would have taken anything.
Speaker 1: I would have been like, Oh, you're gonna your car's
Speaker 1: gonna leak oil, you're gonna break an ankle, you're gonna
Speaker 1: do something. No, Like as soon as I asked, I
Speaker 1: was like hit upside the head. So I just stopped.
Speaker 1: Can I ask another question? Yeah, go ahead. Are you
Speaker 1: as far as you know about this tradition? Was this
Speaker 1: Memphis wide or was this a family specific tradition? Oh,
Speaker 1: that's a good question. Was like when other people on
Speaker 1: the block looking out their window and like, look at
Speaker 1: these crazy as ladies standing out on the yard or
Speaker 1: what they like? No, this makes sense. We're all waiting
Speaker 1: for our men to come home. Yeah, that's where ladies belong.
Speaker 1: If there's no mann. That to sound as as sad
Speaker 1: as it came out. I liked it. No, that's a
Speaker 1: good question because it was like the way my our
Speaker 1: neighborhood was set up was it was my agad. I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: it's not about my grandfather. It was my It was
Speaker 1: my grandma's house, and then the cross street was my grandpa,
Speaker 1: and then it was a bunch of it was across
Speaker 1: the street. Okay, ye, the Jersey and the raftors. What's
Speaker 1: his name? And he didn't buy the milk and he
Speaker 1: got to just watch the cow get milked across the street.
Speaker 1: That's if his name was like rooster, I'm gonna shut
Speaker 1: this computer off. Here's Jamal, But we called him Junior.
Speaker 1: I didn't call him junior, but they called him junior,
Speaker 1: Grandpa Grandpa, Grandpa Junior. Were you on the streets? Why
Speaker 1: did you walk up the steps? Because it's decem the rules, girl,
Speaker 1: you know the rules. I wait till January. Also, does
Speaker 1: he like hit at midnight? It must have, but I okay.
Speaker 1: So going back to the original question, I didn't. I
Speaker 1: didn't see other people doing it, but it was That's
Speaker 1: that's an interesting question because it was like I didn't
Speaker 1: see other people doing it, but every offspring did it,
Speaker 1: every cousin did it. Everybody. Yeah, So it's like it's
Speaker 1: not just your grandma's house, it's all the houses. And
Speaker 1: were you at I assume you're a very young person
Speaker 1: at this time when this is your first being introduced
Speaker 1: to this. Are you bought in? Do you believe in
Speaker 1: this ship? Are you like these crazy as motherfucker's I
Speaker 1: can't wait to leave Memphis and pursue real dreams. Make
Speaker 1: me stand out here waiting for him. He's never gonna
Speaker 1: show up. Also the Hollywood and spit on y'all door
Speaker 1: whenever I want, I can enter. First, I got men
Speaker 1: coming and going. Look give me a grandpa. I don't
Speaker 1: give a ship I didn't. The thing was like, I
Speaker 1: think the same kind of sort of situation just goes
Speaker 1: to like superstitions or even like religion, where you're like,
Speaker 1: I was raised on this, and it's stuck with me
Speaker 1: forever that I didn't really think about it, and to
Speaker 1: this day, I still kind of do it, and oh
Speaker 1: I try. I like I thought about it because like
Speaker 1: if I'm not with someone, or like if I like
Speaker 1: go out on New Year's party, it up, bring a
Speaker 1: guy home, I'm always like, you know what, I need
Speaker 1: to check the mail. Why don't you go upstairs first?
Speaker 1: I like speaking in there because I'm just like, what
Speaker 1: if what if something bad happened that would make me
Speaker 1: think something bad? I would think I was gonna get wrong.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, no, I guess I'm playing the game. If
Speaker 1: you went to her house and then she's like, yeah,
Speaker 1: just go inside, I'm down here checking the man. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I love something in my car. I've listened to enough
Speaker 1: CARDI B to know what that trick is. I'm not.
Speaker 1: I ain't going inside. I'm fear itself. So no, it's
Speaker 1: stuck with me for sure. I held ad do it,
Speaker 1: and I hate that I do it, but I feel
Speaker 1: like I'm just my family think embedded this superstition into me.
Speaker 1: Now where I'm like, I mean, is it wrong to
Speaker 1: not do it? Like to just like actively do it
Speaker 1: just in case? Here's here's another question. Where is your
Speaker 1: grandma from Memphis? Life long Mississippi? So this came with
Speaker 1: it from Mississippi? And then secondly, did your grandpa King
Speaker 1: as he was, believe it as well? You love him?
Speaker 1: I'm a big fan. Yeah, you got right to. You're
Speaker 1: the only one I like his whole get down. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna call my mom after this and be like, they
Speaker 1: actually like Grandpa and she's back. Turns out we talked
Speaker 1: to the granddaughter of a hero today. Jessica's fine, but
Speaker 1: she's got sucking black bus aldron at her house. Though. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we're gonna with him. I don't want it. I don't
Speaker 1: want it. He said, did my grandpa? Did my grandpa
Speaker 1: also follow it? I know he followed it, but did
Speaker 1: he believe it or was He just like, I'm just
Speaker 1: what's your grandma's name, Lorraine. He's like, I'm just doing
Speaker 1: this for Lorraine honestly, because she still she still loves me.
Speaker 1: Temper Nah. He was afraid of her. She she was perfect.
Speaker 1: She was everything and what I want women with their
Speaker 1: kids with a woman I'm afraid of. Yeah, life, the
Speaker 1: life Jr. But so he but he didn't, he didn't
Speaker 1: believe it. He had no. I don't know, I don't.
Speaker 1: I don't think he did. I don't think he it
Speaker 1: because my grandma could scare anything. She was like, you're
Speaker 1: gonna do it, and you're gonna enjoy doing it. And
Speaker 1: also like my dad, my grandpa was just like a
Speaker 1: wild one. Like you guys, already you're theorizing, but you're
Speaker 1: theorizing right like he was having his own party across
Speaker 1: the street. She saw it, she said, she said, what
Speaker 1: the hell is that? They were right next door to
Speaker 1: each other. I remember I'd be like, I'm going to
Speaker 1: Grandpa's and I just walk across the street, walking across
Speaker 1: the street. But either the best or the worst life
Speaker 1: that they've set up for themselves of just living across
Speaker 1: the street from a man who got you pregnant a
Speaker 1: bunch of times, that's nuts. And my grandma hated him.
Speaker 1: So I was like, you have to leave this house
Speaker 1: and look at him every day? Why would you? Why
Speaker 1: would you allow this? And she was just like whatever.
Speaker 1: He whatever the funk he wants to do, he can do.
Speaker 1: I bet she wasn't looking at him. He was in
Speaker 1: the bay, he was in the basement making gin whatever
Speaker 1: whatever the cool cool hobbies. I'm sure he had p
Speaker 1: kuckle Champion. I'm not eve gonna get into his hobby.
Speaker 1: Was good sounds importing him. Okay, let me let me
Speaker 1: ask you this before we go to break. So, so
Speaker 1: you're saying you, while you won't openly admit that you're
Speaker 1: like fully invested in it, your actions are telling us
Speaker 1: that you're fully invested in it, beyond beyond your current
Speaker 1: know how whatever the fuck you you've evolved past this space.
Speaker 1: But some of that still cooked into you. Are are
Speaker 1: you bought into every superstition that your family uh sold you?
Speaker 1: Or are there some that you're like, absolutely not, I'm
Speaker 1: a reasonable gal. Some there's some that are like ridiculous,
Speaker 1: Like my grandma believed like cats steal your soul. That's true,
Speaker 1: but like that fact, yeah, we did some research on that.
Speaker 1: That's actually goddamn rest in peace, damn in the then um.
Speaker 1: But then there's stuff like you don't point at a cemetery,
Speaker 1: you don't point a cemetery. My grandma was really big
Speaker 1: about that. And this goes from my aunts too, really
Speaker 1: big about opening that damn umbrella in the house. You
Speaker 1: do that outside my I remember my aunt like literally
Speaker 1: like a Heinzman stiff armed me for a penny on
Speaker 1: the ground ones a couple of times. Yeah yeah it's up. Yeah, yeah, no,
Speaker 1: I'm saying, yeah, yeah, well yeah, oh so it makes
Speaker 1: sense what the hell is going on? But yeah, those
Speaker 1: things stuck with me so hard that I just kinda
Speaker 1: got beat into me. I will say that you did
Speaker 1: not necessarily say which one of those you are or
Speaker 1: which ones of those you are and are not bought into.
Speaker 1: You merely told us more crazy stuff, but you didn't
Speaker 1: admit to us whether or not you do in fact
Speaker 1: believe in in some of these weird things. I believe
Speaker 1: in the point of the graveyard. I never do it.
Speaker 1: If someone did it around me, I probably smacked their
Speaker 1: hand a little bit. I'd be like the cat one.
Speaker 1: I don't I have a cat walking in our New
Speaker 1: Year's I do believe in God. It's so weird. It's
Speaker 1: just I'm I'm like, I just don't want bad luck.
Speaker 1: I guess it gets to the point where I'm like,
Speaker 1: I'm already have a lot of bad luck. I don't
Speaker 1: want anymore, like no bad luck, but you can have
Speaker 1: my soul, kitty cat, this is yours. Come on in, baby,
Speaker 1: come on in, sit on down, suck my soul, which
Speaker 1: sounds like something your granddaddy would say. Getting out of
Speaker 1: here for this man. I don't know why, but I
Speaker 1: feel like he could DJ. I bet it's a good playlist.
Speaker 1: You try you go by DJ Nins intends you know
Speaker 1: what I mean, like you like, He's like, I'm way
Speaker 1: better than once and two. So it's like, alright, alright,
Speaker 1: big dog. Whatever you say to be the only people
Speaker 1: at that party at that house, I don't think. I
Speaker 1: think there's a lot of ladies in that neighborhood. All Right,
Speaker 1: we're gonna take a break. We'll be back with more.
Speaker 1: Chest said more. My mama told me someone getting this
Speaker 1: chickaboo await from me, Welcome, Welcome back to another phenomenal episode.
Speaker 1: And my mama told me, where we are discussing the
Speaker 1: validity of the conspiracy, that after midnight, men folks need
Speaker 1: to walk in the house first. I love the way
Speaker 1: you said it. It felt Yeah, it just felt like
Speaker 1: you were like, I'm gonna make this a puzzle a
Speaker 1: little bit. Yeah, I'm gonna twist the words of it.
Speaker 1: Just the taste. That's my whole mom. I don't know.
Speaker 1: I wish I knew. I just wish I knew what
Speaker 1: the consequences were. That's what I always like. That's what
Speaker 1: I always with things like this. I was because the
Speaker 1: consequences make me judge whether or not I think it's real.
Speaker 1: I got you. That was the thing that was there
Speaker 1: there always just like it's bad luck, And I was like,
Speaker 1: what kind of bad luck? I feel like I'm crazy
Speaker 1: just the amount of children. I feel like it's a
Speaker 1: fertility thing. I think that. I think there's a I
Speaker 1: think there's a lot of I think there's a lot
Speaker 1: of luck things in general that are based around that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so I think, and I think that not talking out
Speaker 1: of turn, I think whatever your grandma and your grandma
Speaker 1: had together was working, you know what I mean. Pretty
Speaker 1: fertile over there. It's like Mesopotamia. So okay, go on,
Speaker 1: I get it. The fertile crescent is what I'm talking about. It.
Speaker 1: I got it, and uh a lot of our listeners didn't, though,
Speaker 1: So thanks for clarifying. I'm glad that you took that
Speaker 1: extra step. The real dumb dumbs that listen to this ship,
Speaker 1: you know, damn no. I yeah, so that's what that's
Speaker 1: my guess is I think it's a fertility thing. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's that's fascinating. And that's why it's got to be
Speaker 1: a man like maybe it's like you. It just makes
Speaker 1: me feel like the masculine versus feminine or something like. Well, yeah,
Speaker 1: that's why I always thought it was like ahead of
Speaker 1: the household kind of thing. Whoever brings the money, whoever
Speaker 1: brings the goodies, Like I just assumed it was like
Speaker 1: just the breadmaker. And I mean, yeah, it was. It's
Speaker 1: fascinating that that you guys say this, because I I
Speaker 1: felt this as I was researching it, that there weren't
Speaker 1: a lot of satisfying answers about the male nous of
Speaker 1: it all that like they did say and and let's
Speaker 1: let's unpack some of this just right from the beginning,
Speaker 1: that this premise of walking through the house first on
Speaker 1: New Year's that's a man is a thing called first footing.
Speaker 1: That's there's an actual like phrase for it called first footing.
Speaker 1: And the basic premises that the first person who inserts
Speaker 1: the house after the stroke of midnight will strongly influence
Speaker 1: the year you're going to have. Right, So it's it's
Speaker 1: if in theory you wanted to be they said, a
Speaker 1: very tall, very handsome, dark haired man is meant to
Speaker 1: offer goodness for your future where which he'll never tell.
Speaker 1: He'll never tell, gentleman, never done about Lettie. Ain't light skin,
Speaker 1: but it will never tell. Oh my god, oh my god.
Speaker 1: But yeah, you want this, you want this? Uh, you
Speaker 1: want this tall, handsome, dark haired man to influence your
Speaker 1: year in a positive way, which, frankly does sound a
Speaker 1: little bit like BORI to your point, some version of fertility. Right.
Speaker 1: You want some handsome, handsome dude to come in you
Speaker 1: so he makes a handsome baby for you, or at
Speaker 1: least virility, right, mm hmm. Like was he tall? I
Speaker 1: I know it. I don't want to tell you because
Speaker 1: I bet he's so dull. Shoulders he got shoulders, drum jaw,
Speaker 1: I hear it. No, what is this? What is it
Speaker 1: to you? How handsome is your grandpa? I guess he's fine. No, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay,
Speaker 1: he is tall. I don't know, like six six because
Speaker 1: I was a child. He passed later, but like he's tall.
Speaker 1: Every one of my family is pretty tall. He's over
Speaker 1: six some. But he was very very He was really
Speaker 1: really dark skinned. He had a perfectly shaped afro because
Speaker 1: that's just what he always did. I think he actually
Speaker 1: had like glasses like mine for a long time. And
Speaker 1: he just strolled through that neighborhood drinking all the time.
Speaker 1: I mean, that's what you did in that neighborhood. You
Speaker 1: just kind of got like a six pack and just
Speaker 1: walked around and drank it. But that's interesting that it
Speaker 1: had to be that handsome person. I didn't think. It's
Speaker 1: also really interesting because they go on to say that
Speaker 1: blonde or redheaded men passing through the threshold is bad luck.
Speaker 1: That's in my regular that's my day to day though.
Speaker 1: Don't come in my house. I'm come in my house, redheaded.
Speaker 1: Keep that freak top out of here. Get cover top,
Speaker 1: freak get out. Damn. Why are they even fighting? Why
Speaker 1: are they showing up? Some he even brought him. Yeah,
Speaker 1: some some person who thought I was more tolerant. Say,
Speaker 1: this is a Christian house. We've got principles. If if redead,
Speaker 1: I will say, if in the red and comes to
Speaker 1: your house, make sure he keeps his shoes on. That's
Speaker 1: for sure. Tell me what, right, Yeah, you don't wanna.
Speaker 1: You don't want to know what's out there touching your stuff.
Speaker 1: That's like crossing the streams and Ghostbusters. You know, you
Speaker 1: gotta you don't want to know what's gonna happen. It
Speaker 1: could be it could be anything bad. That's a recipe
Speaker 1: for disaster, and so blonde and Redhead apparently was bad
Speaker 1: luck at a certain time. This is also interesting. A
Speaker 1: woman crossing the threshold was like the greatest sin that
Speaker 1: could could possibly happen, which feels like patriarchy doing what
Speaker 1: you know patriarchy has continuously done for generations. It's exciting,
Speaker 1: it's exciting. We haven't changed. I wanna, I want, I
Speaker 1: want full disclosure. I would always rather a woman crossed
Speaker 1: my threshold than a redhead, every day until the day
Speaker 1: I die, which tells you how crazy people. The ones
Speaker 1: that believe this fucking believe this because they were looking
Speaker 1: at at Redhead and women standing out there and they
Speaker 1: were like, bitch, get in the yard, nice redhead man,
Speaker 1: your first. You're not gonna sunk up my nineteen sixteen.
Speaker 1: I still grow crops, bitch, get the funk away from
Speaker 1: my door. You they're ready, you come in, you go away?
Speaker 1: You pushing them out? God damn, that is the woman
Speaker 1: one though, the woman party. Like it was like the
Speaker 1: old Mitsen. I ran. I ran through the house. Once
Speaker 1: I ran through, I ran through the house once I
Speaker 1: was in kindergarten. I remember this. I remember this so clearly.
Speaker 1: I was in kindergarten, went to my aunt's house New
Speaker 1: Year's Day, my birthdays January t so like she always
Speaker 1: gets my presence around, like end of December, January keeps
Speaker 1: some from Christmas. So I was like really excited. I
Speaker 1: was sprinting. I didn't even hear them screaming. They were screaming,
Speaker 1: and we lived in an apartment complex, so everyone could
Speaker 1: hear you, and my aunt's loud as hell. I opened
Speaker 1: that door and ran in. I remember she tried to
Speaker 1: yank me so quick, but I got in and it
Speaker 1: was like I just remember my mom and her screaming
Speaker 1: like a screaming match at each other about it. And
Speaker 1: that's how serious it was. And that's why it stuck
Speaker 1: with me so hard, because I was like I didn't
Speaker 1: know it was that big and like my brother's not
Speaker 1: even like my brother was still like coming from the car.
Speaker 1: So I was like, we're just gonna wait for him,
Speaker 1: and yeah, you're you're being a little mischievous and also
Speaker 1: a little bit uh reasonable in that you're like, hey,
Speaker 1: I'm not just gonna stand outside simply because y'all told
Speaker 1: me to and for you do you remember it all
Speaker 1: the screaming match? What was said? It was like my
Speaker 1: mom being like she just didn't know, she didn't know,
Speaker 1: she didn't know, And I am being like, what do
Speaker 1: you mean you didn't know? Like grandma always did this,
Speaker 1: And I was like and which is true? Which is bad? It?
Speaker 1: My grandma did, but I was a child and I
Speaker 1: thought like my grandma only abided by it. This was
Speaker 1: like the first year me going through my aunt's house
Speaker 1: on New Year specifically, so I didn't know, and so
Speaker 1: I was like she was like, Gine, it will be fine,
Speaker 1: Like well, oh, another edition that we had we ate
Speaker 1: black eyed peas. You have to eat black eyed peas,
Speaker 1: and so she was like, I'll just eat her black
Speaker 1: eyed peas and my aunt was like that, wait, your
Speaker 1: mom offered to eat your black eyed peas? Yeah, sort
Speaker 1: of like a sacrificial lamp. Oh I guess, oh god,
Speaker 1: yeah she well, it was like that I was the
Speaker 1: bad like I was cursed. I guess. So she was like,
Speaker 1: I'll eat her black eyed peas. She won't eat it.
Speaker 1: It won't mix up all the bad luck. That's that's
Speaker 1: kind of beautiful. This is It feels like a Tennessee
Speaker 1: Williams play. Your mom almost gets neutral luck that year
Speaker 1: by sacrificing herself because she would have had good luck
Speaker 1: with the black eyed peas, but then she eats your
Speaker 1: sin peas and then suddenly she's at zero with this ship. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's a nice, that's a that's a lady. I'll tell Linda.
Speaker 1: She'll be like, thank you, thank you, but maybe don't
Speaker 1: tell her our feelings are junior. But I texted her
Speaker 1: and I was like, can you send me pictures? We
Speaker 1: have a photo album from my oldest uncle's wedding that
Speaker 1: was like this like nineteen sixty eight, and oh, oh,
Speaker 1: I got the photos. Looks like Ben Wallace email. Because
Speaker 1: I don't think you guys can see it. No, that's
Speaker 1: not good. If that ain't the most local wilk Chamberlain
Speaker 1: I've ever seen just of a first reaction, he's perfect. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I guess he is giant now that I've seen that photo.
Speaker 1: A white suit, huge And that was a lot of fabric. Yeah, long,
Speaker 1: that was a blanket. He didn't skip on the good stuff,
Speaker 1: that man, the good fabrics. All right. I shouldn't have
Speaker 1: shot you that photo because that photo actually was pure
Speaker 1: example of what you guys have been theorizing. He looked
Speaker 1: like this entire time, the glasses, Olivia, we're gonna need
Speaker 1: you to drop that into the chat as soon as
Speaker 1: it's received, while we're while we're hunting down this gorgeous,
Speaker 1: gorgeous man. Goddamn it, that's it baby. The cut on
Speaker 1: that jacket he invented that. Come on, bro, he's the
Speaker 1: first one with that cut. And he was like, hey,
Speaker 1: put a stained glass window where my dick should be
Speaker 1: exactly a whole trench coat with a dick cut out.
Speaker 1: That's new. And he said, my dick needs an archway,
Speaker 1: go ahead. What a great picture. I'm glad that I
Speaker 1: could send it to you. He'sa Hey, listen, the more
Speaker 1: color you have, the more bitches you got. Get me
Speaker 1: all cola you can afford. I think I don't think
Speaker 1: it's a boat. I don't think it's a tie at all.
Speaker 1: I think it's like a exactly, that's definitely an as. Yeah,
Speaker 1: my boy wearing an ass guy for sure, you got it.
Speaker 1: Babies side shops the outfit. I don't know who the
Speaker 1: woman is next to him, of course not you never do. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I was like, you don't know either. That's just a lady,
Speaker 1: you know, sha't mean nothing. I like her outfit to
Speaker 1: Lorraine had his heart and after that he was for
Speaker 1: the streaks. Okay. One of the things that I'm curious
Speaker 1: to get your take on, because this is an added
Speaker 1: thing that I I read but but doesn't seem to
Speaker 1: be a part of what you're suggesting, is that they
Speaker 1: also say it's even better luck if the person comes
Speaker 1: bearing a gift. That like, if they come with like
Speaker 1: some sort of even if it's like small ship, like
Speaker 1: you know, a crust of bread, they say, or like, uh,
Speaker 1: a chunk of coal was one of the suggested that
Speaker 1: was what Junior was a giant. Come on, my president,
Speaker 1: says my president. I'm Junior, Baby, come Junior, I'm Julius,
Speaker 1: but you can call me Junior. Damn, my mom just
Speaker 1: keeps sending them. I'm so sorry. No, don't are you
Speaker 1: kidding me? I needed a new template. My background screen
Speaker 1: got old. I gotta I gotta up. So that's interesting.
Speaker 1: Right when you said that, was there a gift to
Speaker 1: enter the door? That actually triggered something to me because
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, ship, they're what they're My aunt
Speaker 1: did say mentioned that one, and I remember I don't
Speaker 1: think we ever really did bring stuff unless it was food,
Speaker 1: and so maybe that was the gift because that that
Speaker 1: that stuck with me a little bit. That one opened
Speaker 1: something in my head that was like, yeah, you did,
Speaker 1: because my mom was always my mom was the cook
Speaker 1: of the family. Yeah, I think I think food. It
Speaker 1: was something that felt that's what that crust of bread
Speaker 1: I think was suggesting. It's clearly written by very old timey,
Speaker 1: very poor people, but the premise is still the same.
Speaker 1: Bring some food, bring something to heat the house. Whatever.
Speaker 1: That's probably and I do appreciate that as a tradition
Speaker 1: as like as far as like hard reset on the
Speaker 1: new year, I do like that we all I feel
Speaker 1: like most people have some form of that within themselves,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? You guys do something year,
Speaker 1: not just find you know now it's my wife. But
Speaker 1: I I demanded a nice lady to kiss. You know.
Speaker 1: That was that was very important to me. I will
Speaker 1: say years that I don't think. I feel like years
Speaker 1: that I didn't kiss a woman on New Year's weren't
Speaker 1: great years. That's trash. But one year I kissed to
Speaker 1: deem it and I got a Comedy Central half hours.
Speaker 1: So who knows what you gotta You gotta explain the
Speaker 1: demon part a little bit. It can just be. Then
Speaker 1: I got my half hour. She was all right, I
Speaker 1: don't really want to get into it. We don't have to.
Speaker 1: I sent Olivia more photos to show you because my
Speaker 1: grandma was also good. She was also tall as hell.
Speaker 1: So I say you just so I believe that I listen.
Speaker 1: I'm not I in no way think less of your
Speaker 1: grandma for falling for Junior's charm. He's amazing. I get it, Lorraine.
Speaker 1: So this is an extra part of it for you.
Speaker 1: I'm curious also to hear about your thoughts on this.
Speaker 1: There were additional, more specific things that that they sort
Speaker 1: of got into with these first footers. That number one.
Speaker 1: Another term for the first putter, apparently is is a
Speaker 1: lucky bird, which feels very accurate to the man that
Speaker 1: we're talking about. The power apparently is made less effective
Speaker 1: if they we walk through the door. They have to
Speaker 1: be invited in. Is another additional part of it that
Speaker 1: like you're meant to knock on the door and then
Speaker 1: open the door inviting them in, thus making it more
Speaker 1: of a sound sort of transaction. Additionally, and it doesn't
Speaker 1: sound like your family did this, at least in some
Speaker 1: of what I read. They're not meant to walk through
Speaker 1: the same or walk out the same entrance that they
Speaker 1: came in on. That like you walk in, you walk
Speaker 1: through the house, and you leave immediately. And it sounds
Speaker 1: like your grandma did believe in this part, because they're
Speaker 1: not supposed to like keep hanging out and like chilling
Speaker 1: and ship you bring in somebody, they do the work
Speaker 1: and then they get the funk out and go about
Speaker 1: their business. That's why was perfect, and it was perfect
Speaker 1: for that Grandma did it correctly. They were supposed to
Speaker 1: go back out the same door. No, they apparently are
Speaker 1: meant to exit out of a door that they did
Speaker 1: not come in in an apartment that is not these
Speaker 1: people's problems. How do I think that I called that
Speaker 1: the Santa Claus theory. You just gotta believe. I guess
Speaker 1: you could come in. I guess I'll put it on
Speaker 1: the on the balcony and there's a there's a fire escape.
Speaker 1: He knows his way down, yam. So we just don't
Speaker 1: have good luck if this is right, because we've been
Speaker 1: doing it wrong. Well, it sounds like there it's sort
Speaker 1: of a little bit scaled right, that like the best
Speaker 1: version of good luck would be doing all of these
Speaker 1: things correctly, and that it scales down depending on the
Speaker 1: parts that you do or don't do based on your circumstances.
Speaker 1: Here's another question in your research. Did that didn't give
Speaker 1: you origins at all? Origins in terms of like where
Speaker 1: this came from? Original? Uh? Not really. It seems like,
Speaker 1: I mean, just based off of it feels like some
Speaker 1: old like English ship. If I were to guess like it,
Speaker 1: it doesn't. It doesn't feel like it's like, you know,
Speaker 1: some of the things that I were reading I was
Speaker 1: reading about her like Spanish born or Colombian born. I
Speaker 1: don't think it's that ship. This feels like said, don't
Speaker 1: let a Colombian born walk through your house. No, no, no,
Speaker 1: when Yeah, Well, and who who would disagree? Shakira is
Speaker 1: going to jail. She steals apparently this this is all
Speaker 1: you gotta be careful around my breath away. Had you
Speaker 1: not heard that that? I didn't know at all. Yeah, Jaquira,
Speaker 1: I don't know that she officially is going to jail.
Speaker 1: But Shaquira is in weird, big trouble for like some
Speaker 1: financial crimes like Krypto. I don't think it was crypto related.
Speaker 1: I think it was something closer to tax evasion. But
Speaker 1: it's Columbia. Everybody kind of a vague peck, Yeah what everybody? Yeah,
Speaker 1: see Olivia saying it is tax evasion, that that she's
Speaker 1: in big trouble for my girl. Yeah, it hired me
Speaker 1: to be your accountant. Actually would have stole from us?
Speaker 1: Or maybe not? I say, are you that your thing?
Speaker 1: Are you secretly doing people's accounts? No? Absolutely not unless
Speaker 1: they need me to, unless you want me to. If
Speaker 1: you got a lot of money, called me up. I
Speaker 1: guess she just said she still don't play it bad
Speaker 1: post post help me leave me. Here's my favorite part
Speaker 1: of how specific some of these things get is, at
Speaker 1: one point I read something that said that for the
Speaker 1: first footers, they must not be cross side or have
Speaker 1: flat feet or eyebrows that meet in the middle. No,
Speaker 1: wait a minute, say it again. You said don't cross,
Speaker 1: no cross eye, no flat feet, and no no unibrows,
Speaker 1: no eyebrows that meet in the middle, all recessive genetic traits. Yeah,
Speaker 1: don't let me get away with that. I made that up.
Speaker 1: I believe you know. It was liberally confidence. That's that's
Speaker 1: the key. That's the key, that's the key. That's interesting.
Speaker 1: So you're supposed to stop someone that has a unibrow.
Speaker 1: Whoa yeah, Jake, you know, goddamn one. You're doing the
Speaker 1: big planning meeting for the Like somebody's like, what if
Speaker 1: Jake could do it this year? You're like, fuck you,
Speaker 1: fuck you. You know, his eyes across, crossside, flat footed, bitch,
Speaker 1: take that flat feet and get the funk out of here. God. Also,
Speaker 1: what are you doing just checking people's feet, just looking?
Speaker 1: That's a hard one to tell. Yeah, I think they're
Speaker 1: just they're guessing. They're like, you don't have the confidence
Speaker 1: of correct arches. Yeah, I think that you could be
Speaker 1: confident without correct arches. Listen, I have I have extremely
Speaker 1: flat feet like confidence. Yeah, I think I think it
Speaker 1: took something out of me. That's what I'm saying. I
Speaker 1: never would have thought that about you. Yeah, now my
Speaker 1: feet are fucking boards mine too, but mine are huge
Speaker 1: ten and a half. It's not even. Yeah, I'm I'm
Speaker 1: walking on I'm walking on legos. You know what I mean.
Speaker 1: I'm not even it's just short and and flat. Interesting.
Speaker 1: I had no idea. I'm sorry. Yeah, you know I
Speaker 1: can walk I can't walk through. So we all can't
Speaker 1: walk through the house. First, technically you're a woman. I can't. No,
Speaker 1: I can't. I can't walk through the house. Yeah, you
Speaker 1: can walk through that. Well, it's a no flat feet.
Speaker 1: You can said you have flat feet. Oh well, but
Speaker 1: that's for the Colombians. No, that's for everybody. That's for
Speaker 1: everybody according to this conspiracy theory, no cross eyes, no
Speaker 1: flat feet. I do have more thoughtics though. Okay, this
Speaker 1: is also a podcast for for board to get for
Speaker 1: board to get booties. So he got to say ladies
Speaker 1: every once in a while. Lord, what if you had
Speaker 1: a universe on your shaved just so you could you can,
Speaker 1: like you can trick your way into it. That's that's
Speaker 1: what I worry about. Well, yeah, I think I think
Speaker 1: the argument would be that you know you're cursed, and
Speaker 1: God knows your cursed, and and just removing it physically
Speaker 1: does not remove said curse. God, Well you've given up,
Speaker 1: You're like, well, all right, it sounds like I can't
Speaker 1: walk through the house anyway. I don't know why I'm
Speaker 1: trying to fight to go in that house first. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you already proved it, you already. This last part does
Speaker 1: feel very much like one person with a bad experience
Speaker 1: being like that nig is ugly to me, and I'm
Speaker 1: gonna write down everything about him that I don't like
Speaker 1: and make it. Yeah. The other one is that his
Speaker 1: name Campi Orlando. Yeah, it's like, all right, Nick, who
Speaker 1: hurt you? And why? Why is? Why is his name Orlando?
Speaker 1: I like that they take their anger out on going
Speaker 1: to Wikipedia and just editing just one that one family
Speaker 1: in memphisendense. He follows there's one family of thirty. Yeah, O, God,
Speaker 1: they tricked us, They tricked us. Well, we're gonna take more,
Speaker 1: more break, We'll be back with more Chestera Clintons and more.
Speaker 1: My MoMA told man, welcome back to my mom and
Speaker 1: told me the podcast where we have decided no Dominicans,
Speaker 1: no cross side, no flat, you know, dirty footage, Ginger's
Speaker 1: in your house. After New Year's you started with Dominicans.
Speaker 1: I was like, whoa, what do we decide? And then
Speaker 1: and then you clarified. I was like, oh, thank god,
Speaker 1: we're still in the bid. I thought I thought you
Speaker 1: had gone rogue. And we decided no Dominicans, and then
Speaker 1: just that was the end of the conversation. It just
Speaker 1: shake me a little bit. Man, Boy boy really made
Speaker 1: a choice here. I made a lot of groundbreaking choices
Speaker 1: on this podcast. Uh, you know, I expect to be
Speaker 1: a political prisoner soon. I'm gonna be the d R
Speaker 1: S Brittany ground. Oh man, you're gonna be in the
Speaker 1: d R HAP enjoying a cut rate discounted BBL. That's
Speaker 1: gonna keep me when I'm trying to come back. They're
Speaker 1: just gonna keep b b L e U and Blulia
Speaker 1: look good. You look good. You look good behind the bar,
Speaker 1: look good, look like the fanman Cavo, I'm gonna look crazy.
Speaker 1: Have you seen his body? It looks nuts. Just b
Speaker 1: BL and you and Mabe you smoke hooka, You're gonna
Speaker 1: be sucking. You're gonna look weird. And your lungs will
Speaker 1: be purple. It's gonna be fucking crazy. I will be
Speaker 1: snatched though, You'll be snatched. No, lie that way still be.
Speaker 1: Where where they taking? Where are they taking? Is there's
Speaker 1: some kind of graveyard? I don't understand where where are
Speaker 1: all the Sorry, keep going the nucas isn't about this,
Speaker 1: isn't about me getting BBL to death in the Dominican Republic.
Speaker 1: The premise for my new short film, I don't want
Speaker 1: to start a conspiracy that there's more BBL waste than
Speaker 1: the oceans and plastics whales you're getting to just get it.
Speaker 1: It's just loose tummy fat just floating around, poisoning turtles
Speaker 1: and ship. Genuinely might be the funniest thing I've ever
Speaker 1: We're worried about these oil spills. You need to be
Speaker 1: worried about these booty spills. The spills they just have.
Speaker 1: They just have some thick lady do a commercial being like, ladies,
Speaker 1: stop dumping your your tummy fats in the oceans. Weird
Speaker 1: And they're just like I was, like governed in a
Speaker 1: little and a little belly button, a little wet belly. Buddy,
Speaker 1: LANs Port Goose, Save our oceans, Our oceans, Save our oceans.
Speaker 1: All right, this did get me thinking, I don't know
Speaker 1: how we go back to being professionals after this professional
Speaker 1: before we weren't. You're right, well I'm mistaken, But but
Speaker 1: this did give me thinking about other New Year's based
Speaker 1: conspiracy theories, right, Like, this is not an isolated one,
Speaker 1: and I'm curious just to to run down a list
Speaker 1: with y'all of other sort of New Year's based conspiracy
Speaker 1: theories and get your takes, whether or not. And Jessica,
Speaker 1: it sounds like you're a bit of a superstitious person.
Speaker 1: I'm curious to know if any of these are something
Speaker 1: you either believe or would buy into now that you
Speaker 1: hear them. All Right, So the first that I thought
Speaker 1: was really exciting. There's one called eat twelve Grapes that basically,
Speaker 1: at midnight you are meant to eat twelve grapes, no more,
Speaker 1: no less, And apparently the grapes are meant to represent
Speaker 1: the months of the year, and by eating all twelve
Speaker 1: you're setting yourself up for good luck. I think this
Speaker 1: one is Italian nonsense. Oh this pretty close Spain, Spain.
Speaker 1: The Italians tell you of the West. Does it matter
Speaker 1: what color. And they didn't say they weren't. Like, hey,
Speaker 1: and don't eat those nasty purple grapes. You got the purple.
Speaker 1: The purples are the best ones. That's what I was saying. Guys,
Speaker 1: let's all just He's into being honest with ourselves. The
Speaker 1: green grapes are are the heroes in this story. Never listen, listen.
Speaker 1: The California Raisins are backup singers. They are not the
Speaker 1: stars of the show. Baby. I think we all know it. Oh,
Speaker 1: oh my god, that was not hearing That was not
Speaker 1: hearing that I was not here for. I wasn't hear it.
Speaker 1: That was that was insane, all right? What they wasn't
Speaker 1: one of them voiced by Rache Arnold's you talk like that?
Speaker 1: Was it? Is that true? I was about to say,
Speaker 1: I find it very hard to believe that Rachel it
Speaker 1: took time out of his very busy career voice one
Speaker 1: of four California Raisins. The California Raisins were pretty big.
Speaker 1: So did you guys not think the California Raisins one
Speaker 1: of them was Ray Charles. I don't think I think
Speaker 1: they had sunglasses. I don't think I ever thought that
Speaker 1: they were specifically Ray Charles. That's weird to be like
Speaker 1: the black man with sunglasses California Raisins Ray Charles in
Speaker 1: the California Raisins on YouTube. Yeah, but that's does that
Speaker 1: mean that he is or does that mean he did
Speaker 1: a collaboration with them? Did? But he's also Ray Charles
Speaker 1: was Clay. You're saying, oh, oh, he wasn't a raisin though,
Speaker 1: that's where I think that that must be where I
Speaker 1: got it. Okay, all right, so it wasn't completely off
Speaker 1: base and it had some interesting but anyways, Yeah, no,
Speaker 1: I don't like that one. I would do it. It's
Speaker 1: not hard to eat twelve grapes. Actually, I don't think
Speaker 1: I can stop myself at twelve. But that's hard. That's
Speaker 1: the problem. That's where they're challenging you. And yeah, and
Speaker 1: you're like, no, I need I need about thirty four
Speaker 1: more grapes and make them and make them fat and purple.
Speaker 1: I eat those green ones. I can't do it. Wait,
Speaker 1: this is not much. I believe in the green. I
Speaker 1: I will not buy the green if they're not the
Speaker 1: right kind of sour. I'll wait for the sour season.
Speaker 1: Have you ever heard the terms sour grapes. Yeah, that
Speaker 1: sounds fucking dope. While we complaintive you really are, you
Speaker 1: really are built like a super villain to your core. Yeah, man,
Speaker 1: deep inside of me, I'm a bad guy. I know
Speaker 1: it's really true. You just want to eat grapes. You
Speaker 1: want to eat sour grapes to drink cold mountain dew
Speaker 1: and watch the world burn. Baby, all right, I'm for it. Yeah, Okay,
Speaker 1: so it sounds like Jessica, you're brought into the twelve Grapes,
Speaker 1: You're not probably committed to applying this to next year's celebrations.
Speaker 1: Fill up your cupboards is the next one. Apparently it's
Speaker 1: bad luck to start your year with empty cupboards. That like,
Speaker 1: you can't have no food in your pantry and ship,
Speaker 1: because then it's bad luck that I get that. Just
Speaker 1: trying to like a level of like you should buy
Speaker 1: some fucking macaroni man, Like, Yeah, they're just gonna sit
Speaker 1: in the back of your cupboard, but at least it's
Speaker 1: not empty. Yeah, and also not for nothing. As somebody
Speaker 1: who gets real fucked up on New Year's a lot
Speaker 1: of times you need a snack at the end of
Speaker 1: the night. You need a little some extra to eat
Speaker 1: and if you ain't got no food, that's bad. That's
Speaker 1: a bad start to a year. Yeah, that's a good point.
Speaker 1: You should get some Totina's party pizzas, come on whatever
Speaker 1: whatever you need. I guess those are Yeah, I was like,
Speaker 1: those are in the covering. They can't be if you
Speaker 1: like them weird. They could be really like that. I don't.
Speaker 1: I'm just trying to be supportive of my friend. He support.
Speaker 1: The next one is don't clean your house. You should
Speaker 1: not clean your house on New Year's because you are
Speaker 1: essentially washing away the good luck that you've gathered. So
Speaker 1: I always say, because it's like if you hosted the party,
Speaker 1: if you hosted the part, you're just gonna leave it
Speaker 1: like that for you gotta leave it nasty. No, you're not.
Speaker 1: You're not bought into that one. You're wash away all
Speaker 1: that good luck. What is what's left after you? Even
Speaker 1: like what's left over after christ? A New Year's party?
Speaker 1: A bunch of fluid? Everyone's fluid? What part you party
Speaker 1: hard years? Huh? I it ain't a party if it
Speaker 1: ain't wet. You know where's the line? Yeah? Is it
Speaker 1: New Year's if you didn't have to bring a towel.
Speaker 1: So the the next one is uh, and you you
Speaker 1: actually talked about this already. Jessica is eating cola greens
Speaker 1: or black eyed peas apparently is good luck niggas. Uh.
Speaker 1: This one apparently is connected back to slavery and the
Speaker 1: Civil War, where people considered like super lucky to have
Speaker 1: a meal of black eyed peas because they were hardy
Speaker 1: and filled you up and so too, it helped them
Speaker 1: survive the winter and ship and so subsequently we carried
Speaker 1: on this tradition presuming that black eyed peas remained hearty, healthy,
Speaker 1: good luck for us moving forward. And that's exactly what
Speaker 1: my mom told me. She was like it was because
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, we were giving our slaves. We
Speaker 1: were giving the leftovers of everything, so we kind of yeah,
Speaker 1: but if you got like leftovers, that was just like
Speaker 1: a chewed up bones. It's like, oh, I ain't don't
Speaker 1: that's gonna fill your boy up. But if you got
Speaker 1: some black eyed bees, oh oh we eating good tonight. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know. That's what they give us slaves, right,
Speaker 1: just chewed up bones. I don't know, make a stew
Speaker 1: marsh Yeah, Marshall, I don't know, Marshall, make a stew
Speaker 1: and he's like, oh, thanks, mask, here's the bone. Well
Speaker 1: I get some of the black pieces. Yeah, I'll get
Speaker 1: your hands out of here as a drum to play
Speaker 1: some of your Play me one of your cricket songs,
Speaker 1: marshalls with with the bone. Put down that drumstick and
Speaker 1: pick up that bone and play me one of your
Speaker 1: one of your cricket hymns, one of those chirp tunes
Speaker 1: I love so much, one about down by the river side.
Speaker 1: You guys, you and you and your rivers, thing about
Speaker 1: your river. Okay, here's another one, apparently on the flip.
Speaker 1: Don't eat lobster. Lobsters are used now on New Year's Now,
Speaker 1: ain't going you? Meaning you absolutely will be eating lobster
Speaker 1: on you will eat lobster any day of the mother
Speaker 1: you and just wait, I feel like I knew that
Speaker 1: about you. That the whole reason I started to get money. Yeah,
Speaker 1: pull up with a lobster on Wednesday. I may come
Speaker 1: at the house sometimes during COVID, I go to the ocean,
Speaker 1: get some ocean water by a live one. Come back home.
Speaker 1: Boil that bitch in the ocean water. I kill it
Speaker 1: in its home. Fuck God, damn that's ruthless. Yeah yeah,
Speaker 1: shellfish heavy. Hell yeah, that's clear and so and so
Speaker 1: anything to be clear. The reason that they say that
Speaker 1: you're you're not supposed to do this with lobster, not
Speaker 1: supposed to eat lobsters because lobsters walk backwards, and therefore
Speaker 1: are you'd be taking a quote unquote step backwards by
Speaker 1: consuming lobster on New Year's. Wait a minute, lobsters walk backwards.
Speaker 1: I don't think they walk backwards all the time. I
Speaker 1: think they just have the ability to walk backwards. I
Speaker 1: might sunk around and do this one this year, just
Speaker 1: to see how this goes. And that's such a specific animal,
Speaker 1: the lobster. I feel like there's a lot of animals
Speaker 1: that do weird like that. Yeah, we're a lot of
Speaker 1: people gonna eat lobster at New Year's. I feel like
Speaker 1: this is them conflating like old scripture ship with New
Speaker 1: Year's because like every scripture at some point kind of
Speaker 1: band shellfish and specifically lobster, and so in that way,
Speaker 1: it's like, oh, we'll just we'll make lobster bad everywhere
Speaker 1: you go. It's like, you know, Irish need not apply,
Speaker 1: but for lobsters to the people, this was like, they
Speaker 1: eat too much lobster. One day they cannot eat lobster.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm just trying to think of why
Speaker 1: this would be used to be right, Yeah, it was
Speaker 1: poor people's food in part. In part be I think
Speaker 1: because we couldn't cook it very properly, or at least
Speaker 1: the fear was that it wasn't cooked properly and therefore
Speaker 1: made people sick. Shell Fish, pig. They people were constantly
Speaker 1: getting sick because of our our improper sort of like
Speaker 1: cooking baby wrap one and the other. I'm coming for dinner. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I've a ship. I can do with that. I don't
Speaker 1: like shellfish really. You know what's funny. My mom, my aunt,
Speaker 1: and my grandma are allergically shellfish. So I never had it.
Speaker 1: And then when I finally moved out and I did
Speaker 1: have it, I was like, I don't see the hype.
Speaker 1: I was like this, Uh, I don't know if you've
Speaker 1: had the right I'm a shrimp man, that's about it.
Speaker 1: I don't do you not do funk with seafood. I
Speaker 1: I funk with seafood, but I'm not like deeply passionate
Speaker 1: about it, the same way that some people are like
Speaker 1: shrimp and crawfish. I funk with heavy and then the
Speaker 1: others like crab and lobster. I'm chilling on. I can
Speaker 1: take it. Yeah, I like it, but I'm rare. I'm
Speaker 1: rarely going to go to a restaurant and pick a
Speaker 1: fish over, like chicken or steak or whatever else. I
Speaker 1: think that I was up in the water grill not
Speaker 1: forty eight hours ago, going nuts. Damn. Yeah, you love
Speaker 1: After you said that's I was like, God, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: anything anything that's underwater, I mnna eat it. You. My
Speaker 1: granddad would get along. I did know it. I think
Speaker 1: I don't know. You think you don't think. I think
Speaker 1: Junior loves shrimp. I saw the suit he ate the ship.
Speaker 1: He would eat catfish like no other all the goddamn time.
Speaker 1: One of the big gas pockets. I got up. Wait,
Speaker 1: hold up, men, the wedding, Hold up, baby, held baby,
Speaker 1: let me get this out. You got some fresh oh man,
Speaker 1: I'll raise you guys a couple more. There's also carrying
Speaker 1: around a suitcase that we were talking about Colombians earlier. Apparently,
Speaker 1: in Colombia they think you should carry around an empty
Speaker 1: suitcase because it will help carry in adventures for the
Speaker 1: New Year. That is so funny. Can I tell you
Speaker 1: a weird story, yeah, kind of changential. My mom just
Speaker 1: sent me a picture, a bunch of pictures from Africa
Speaker 1: and from when I was in Africa. And then she
Speaker 1: sent me an old picture of my cousin and he's
Speaker 1: wearing a briefcase that I know is empty. All right,
Speaker 1: I'll show you the picture if you give me a
Speaker 1: two seconds picture. So he's just walking around with this
Speaker 1: empty suitcase. Just look is good to look for. Actually,
Speaker 1: I don't think the look is good to just walk around.
Speaker 1: I don't know if you say that. Uh that that
Speaker 1: Soluche video that uh tell me the truth boy losing
Speaker 1: that wherein Yeah, oh my gosh. Yeah it's old. It's
Speaker 1: like pre cranes in the sky and all that ship.
Speaker 1: Oh that's fresh though, no family standing on cars, empty briefcase.
Speaker 1: I like that. We all have photos of our family
Speaker 1: and the best attire, white socks, shoes, come on. But
Speaker 1: in that video, in that Salange video, that we're doing
Speaker 1: the same ship of walking around like fresh to death
Speaker 1: with a briefcase that you can tell just is uninhabited
Speaker 1: by documents and anything of importance. The whole briefcase seems
Speaker 1: incredibly unnecessary to me. I had my best friend's dad
Speaker 1: was just like wild ass man and he had a
Speaker 1: briefcase and I remember he got mad at us because
Speaker 1: we were like, there's no there's nothing in here, there's
Speaker 1: nothing important in here. And we opened it up and said,
Speaker 1: don't you touch it? And it was one Snicker's box.
Speaker 1: Whoa it? Oh? No? Oh? No, Oh. He was sick.
Speaker 1: That's the word ship. Yeah, he was. He was terribly addicted.
Speaker 1: That's that's addiction. No, that man. Could you imagine ad
Speaker 1: Could you imagine getting found out by your kid and
Speaker 1: all you got your briefcases? Snickers? Were you doing? I'm
Speaker 1: going to work with children? But you're That's where I
Speaker 1: think you're missing it. He was willing, Jessica, he was
Speaker 1: willing to lose his family. He's lying to everyone he
Speaker 1: knows in his life over one snickers. Oh you think
Speaker 1: he actually had a job. Okay, that's where we're No,
Speaker 1: I'm saying whether I'm saying whether he had a job
Speaker 1: or he didn't have a job. They think there are
Speaker 1: documents in that brief out. They think he's committed to
Speaker 1: to a life of effort and caring for them, and
Speaker 1: he's just eating a Snickers. The man is sick. Look here,
Speaker 1: Not everybody's perfect. Some people have one single Snickers bar
Speaker 1: on the briefcase. Some people who have a lot. Some
Speaker 1: people have three or four Nigas bars in there. Some people.
Speaker 1: Some people, yeah, yeah, you're done, so the last one
Speaker 1: I'll run by you guys. And I think I already
Speaker 1: know where Borries stands on this, But don't eat chicken
Speaker 1: on New Year's Apparently there are some who believe that
Speaker 1: that you shouldn't eat chicken because, and this is maybe
Speaker 1: the stupidest explanation I've ever heard, chickens have wings and
Speaker 1: you're good luck will fly away. Okay, they don't want
Speaker 1: to see chicken. First of all, isn't no chicken is
Speaker 1: flying away from me. It's a flightless bird. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: eat it. I was like, I'm gonna eat it before
Speaker 1: it gets anywhere. Well, you're not getting far chicken here.
Speaker 1: Look here, you ain't getting that. Don't bring your chicken
Speaker 1: around me, true player. For really, that's my nigger for real,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. There's been at least thirty
Speaker 1: times I had to go off screen and know this
Speaker 1: whole episode has been egregious. Yeah, we're working up pretty
Speaker 1: bad and uh, and the fans will tell us that
Speaker 1: exactly this is no, this was great, Jessica. It sounds
Speaker 1: like it sounds like we've we've met some good collaboration
Speaker 1: inside of of of the possible New Year's superstisions. And
Speaker 1: I don't know that you made us a believer in
Speaker 1: the Man through the doorway of it all, but you
Speaker 1: did make us a believer in Junior, and that's maybe
Speaker 1: more important. I think that's a big takeaway from today's Junior. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Junior Junior is everything we need it and uh and
Speaker 1: the fact that you were here to give it to
Speaker 1: us means you're the most special lady in our lives.
Speaker 1: You guys now have photos and you guys now have photos,
Speaker 1: a photo evidence of the swag that got something that
Speaker 1: takes for the Taylor do this special? No changes? Yeah,
