Speaker 1: Motherfucking mini episode, many episode, motherfucking mini episod.
Speaker 2: Ain't nothing going on but the money and power. You
Speaker 2: many niggas out here count They be saving the hose,
Speaker 2: they be buying them clothes. But a nigga like me
Speaker 2: can I do welcome little mama's and gentiles, so like
Speaker 2: to another phenomenal episode of.
Speaker 3: My Mama Told Me, the podcast where we dive deep,
Speaker 3: deep into the pockets of black conspiracy theories.
Speaker 2: And we finally work to prove the conspiracies of you,
Speaker 2: the listeners. It's another motherfucking mini episode.
Speaker 3: I'm David Boy, I'm Likesning Kerman, and we're so happy
Speaker 3: you sweet baby booths have decided to tune in. We're
Speaker 3: so happy that we get to unpack your many, your
Speaker 3: your You all are prolific in your in your conspiracy theory.
Speaker 3: Reason you send us emails constantly, too many for us
Speaker 3: to manage at this point, really, which is really exciting,
Speaker 3: and we we do not complain about that one bit,
Speaker 3: and we hope the emails keep coming in. Today we
Speaker 3: got an email that we've wanted to talk about, I
Speaker 3: would say for a little while now.
Speaker 2: The topic was so great we could not stop and
Speaker 2: we just were really waiting for the perfect time to
Speaker 2: slow down and unpack this whole.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you really want to give yourself a little bit
Speaker 3: of wiggle room to ask the right questions with this
Speaker 3: subject I would say.
Speaker 2: Because I've think a lot of times, I think we
Speaker 2: feel the same way. It's the subject line that gets us.
Speaker 2: So if you want to get on subject line, that's
Speaker 2: that's how you got to do it.
Speaker 3: I think that's right. I think very often a provocative
Speaker 3: subject line can sometimes supersede what inevitably becomes an idiotic email.
Speaker 3: Sometimes they're they're truly dumb, and we we had no
Speaker 3: business even reading the nonsense you sent us, But you
Speaker 3: hooked us right away with the subject line. And I'm
Speaker 3: not sure that this one's any different, but it got
Speaker 3: us from the beginning.
Speaker 2: Listen. I think at the end of the day, you
Speaker 2: have to understand that Langston myself were both firmly planted
Speaker 2: in the millennial time zone, and that we will not
Speaker 2: read full articles. We will skim the tops and then
Speaker 2: tell our friends that's who we are.
Speaker 3: Let's be clear, you at home are the onion, and
Speaker 3: we are only here for the taglines. Baby, that's it.
Speaker 2: I don't give a shit about the real news. I
Speaker 2: keep my opinions up enough to just keep people's back
Speaker 2: off my back at like a party.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that's right. I want to be in
Speaker 3: a way where if a subject comes up, I can
Speaker 3: throw in a thought and then walk away from that conversation.
Speaker 2: And then go And then you'll find me at the
Speaker 2: Deviled Eggs. Yeah.
Speaker 3: I say you had a lot of parties with deviled eggs?
Speaker 2: Is that l Yeah? Lately it has actually been coming up,
Speaker 2: like because we had someone on Eastern I was like, damn,
Speaker 2: these are good as fuck. And then at Eastern I
Speaker 2: was like, the last three or four times I had
Speaker 2: doubled eggs, they weren't good. And then it happens a lot. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: are you not?
Speaker 3: I'm not at it often enough. I wouldn't say that
Speaker 3: that's a frequent thing that's happening. I am at a
Speaker 3: lot of parties with food, But I feel like a
Speaker 3: deviled egg party is as a step further into like
Speaker 3: sort of the food party of it all.
Speaker 2: You know what I think it is too, is that
Speaker 2: La is not a Deviled eggs city, Bros.
Speaker 3: That's fair.
Speaker 2: I think it's just nobody's bringing like this is I
Speaker 2: live in Denver, Man, everybody, somebody's gonna think it was
Speaker 2: a good idea, you know what I mean. I still
Speaker 2: go to parties where people bring like a bunch of
Speaker 2: taco bell or some shit. Yeah.
Speaker 3: I feel like in La deviled eggs are are too
Speaker 3: offensive to too many palettes. You just don't You don't
Speaker 3: even bring that because who's gonna want it?
Speaker 2: Kind of exactly, you know what I'm telling your parties
Speaker 2: don't have punch. I had been to one punch party
Speaker 2: one time. Six years I lived in Los Angeles. Not
Speaker 2: one punch party.
Speaker 3: Yeah, because we're all pretending to have money we don't have.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, just get some seven up, get some sugart,
Speaker 2: let's have a good time, you know, Relax, Bring the punchback.
Speaker 2: Summer twenty twenty four, bring the punchback.
Speaker 3: Yeah, come on, I'm trying to see some sprite with
Speaker 3: a little bit of foam on time.
Speaker 2: It's the best. It's the best drink. And if you
Speaker 2: guys got punch recipes, honestly send them in because I'm
Speaker 2: gonna be I'm entertaining this summer. I'm having lots of
Speaker 2: food parties. Oh nice, that's my plan. I am at
Speaker 2: the crib or are you taking this to like public
Speaker 2: spaces at the crib, I'm in the park a lot
Speaker 2: because of I don't want to bring it back up
Speaker 2: as much as I did last year. But obviously, you know,
Speaker 2: I have the boats, so I'm grilling in the park
Speaker 2: a lot.
Speaker 3: You have the boats, you you have. I hope more
Speaker 3: race war wars to facilitate.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I definitely Race Wars is coming back up at
Speaker 2: the end of the summer. Obviously. You know. I like
Speaker 2: to watch people race. It's like running and racing and
Speaker 2: fighting are the two things you're gonna watch no matter
Speaker 2: what the context.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that's fair, you know what I mean.
Speaker 3: It's always fun, always, always exciting to see somebody lose,
Speaker 3: Always excited to see someone get punched in the head,
Speaker 3: you know.
Speaker 2: Also always exciting to pit races against each other in
Speaker 2: tests of strength, you know what I mean. Always Yeah,
Speaker 2: that's how boxing works, right, It is fun.
Speaker 3: I'll be honest. I've had a hard time with the
Speaker 3: results lately. I don't love the ratio of how our
Speaker 3: race is doing as it goes between like you know,
Speaker 3: black versus white fights. Specifically, it feels like we're not
Speaker 3: we're not up right now.
Speaker 2: Do you think that's algorithmic though, or do you think
Speaker 2: that's the culture in general?
Speaker 3: I wonder because I think so much of the culture
Speaker 3: now is driven by algorithms. So like Jake Paul does
Speaker 3: not become Jake Paul the now legitimate sort of like
Speaker 3: boxer if you you know, if we're calling it that
Speaker 3: without the algorithm already doing a lot of service for him,
Speaker 3: you know what I mean. Like he even if he
Speaker 3: was a great boxer, he never went through any of
Speaker 3: the traditional routes, so the algorithm had to help him
Speaker 3: skip a bunch of steps.
Speaker 2: I think we don't have to say he is a
Speaker 2: great boxer. I don't.
Speaker 3: I don't think that he is. But I also don't
Speaker 3: think he's as shitty as everybody wanted him to be.
Speaker 2: I think he is. I think it's just like he's like, uh,
Speaker 2: boxing has become like you know how Formula Run is
Speaker 2: just for like the rich teams and then they just
Speaker 2: like they cheat the way that because they're all so
Speaker 2: rich or whatever. Yeah, it feels like that's the same
Speaker 2: thing when Boston were like, he's not a legitimate fight.
Speaker 3: No, I don't think he's ever gonna contend for like
Speaker 3: have you know what I mean? Like, I know the
Speaker 3: difference between like the scales to some extent, but I'm
Speaker 3: saying that on average, there are very few people who
Speaker 3: are even competent enough to be in the ring with
Speaker 3: Mike Tyson at any age.
Speaker 2: Do you know what I mean?
Speaker 3: Like, it's not he's at least competent enough to not die.
Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, if you're talking about like versus me
Speaker 2: and you are like somethinger on the street.
Speaker 3: Yeah, But but that's what I'm saying. I think we
Speaker 3: wanted him to just be a motherfucker on the street
Speaker 3: and he's not that. And that's the sort of like
Speaker 3: frustration or confusion of it.
Speaker 2: I mean, I guess I hate him. I just sorry.
Speaker 2: I just recently gotten a conversation with him about him recently,
Speaker 2: and I didn't even realize how deep it ran, but
Speaker 2: I was like, I hate that. I think it's bad
Speaker 2: that he does.
Speaker 3: Let me be clear, because now I feel like we're
Speaker 3: not on the same page. I'm not a fan.
Speaker 2: Oh okay, I thought you quit picking on my friend. Okay,
Speaker 2: that's makes one.
Speaker 3: I thought I made that sort of established that just
Speaker 3: from my personality That's why I was like, what is
Speaker 3: he doing? I can't say that you've ever offended me
Speaker 3: more by presuming that I was a fan of Jake Ball,
Speaker 3: I am not. I think that he's a very very
Speaker 3: bad person who I wish desperately every single time gets
Speaker 3: his jaw broken off by the person he's challenged. You said,
Speaker 3: ratio wise, he will not stop winning, even against motherfuckers
Speaker 3: that I'm rooting for desperately to murder him. And so yeah,
Speaker 3: I I it just thinks it is my point.
Speaker 2: You know what I like about this podcast is that
Speaker 2: you and I constantly pushed the threadsholds of being offended
Speaker 2: by each other. And I think that's a fun dynamic.
Speaker 2: I do too. Yeah, and that's what people tune in
Speaker 2: for every week to see how we can hurt each
Speaker 2: other's feelings.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we we hurt each other and we come back giggly.
Speaker 2: Some it's so fun. I mean, you guys don't know this.
Speaker 2: Before this license said something very hurt He called me
Speaker 2: an anti hero at best, and you know what, it
Speaker 2: was hilarious. I can't help that. Does it fuck with
Speaker 2: my personal narrative and how I go about living my life? Yeah,
Speaker 2: I'm gonna take a walk and think about some shit
Speaker 2: or whatever. But hey, that's his business. We're emotionally stunted
Speaker 2: and we're here for the last Let's get into this.
Speaker 2: Let's get into this email and stop offending each other
Speaker 2: on purpose. But uh, this email, I won't say it
Speaker 2: doesn't say, don't say my name. This is from Cord.
Speaker 2: I don't know what kind of name that is.
Speaker 3: The Cord I knew growing up was a person named Cordero, Right.
Speaker 3: I don't know if that's that's a common thing or
Speaker 3: if that was just Cordero. But Cordero was Cord.
Speaker 2: Okay, Oh, I have one question, and I just want
Speaker 2: to throw this out there. We don't have to get
Speaker 2: too deep. Do you know more black or Hispanic? Carlosis
Speaker 2: or Italian? I mean, I don't know. I don't even
Speaker 2: know where the names from.
Speaker 3: Hmmm, Carlosis. Damn, it's mostly black people, right, I would
Speaker 3: say it's like two thirds Latino and then like one
Speaker 3: third black people.
Speaker 2: I think it's the other way around for me. But
Speaker 2: I only know like four or five.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I know like four. I know three and one
Speaker 3: of them is black and then to Latinos.
Speaker 2: I you know what, I only know three, but it's
Speaker 2: the opposite. Two are black and one's Latino.
Speaker 3: I will say I was very surprised at my first
Speaker 3: black Carlos, but then it became much more common in
Speaker 3: a way that I didn't anticipate at all, where I
Speaker 3: was like, oh shit, it does feel like it's ours, right, Really,
Speaker 3: I don't know, I don't I don't know how.
Speaker 2: To explain it. I don't know. Listen, this is just
Speaker 2: a gut feeling. I don't feel that way. You don't
Speaker 2: feel like it feels. You don't feel like we would
Speaker 2: have Like if you put a one hundred black people
Speaker 2: in a room with the typewriter till the end of time.
Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know how that thing goes,
Speaker 2: but I'm saying it feels like the name we would
Speaker 2: have made up at some point.
Speaker 3: First of all, I like that you build on that
Speaker 3: monkey's typing analogy.
Speaker 2: Would I felt wrong, It felt it didn't feel good.
Speaker 2: As soon as I started saying it, I was like,
Speaker 2: I don't think this is I don't think this is
Speaker 2: doing what you wanted to.
Speaker 3: Yeah, to be clear, it's the allergy where you go
Speaker 3: if you put a I think it's like a hundred
Speaker 3: monkeys and a typewriter in a room for however long,
Speaker 3: they'll eventually like write a script, like they'll actually find
Speaker 3: their way into like a real story.
Speaker 2: Well, you know what growth is about, acknowledge, It is
Speaker 2: about change and acknowledging your faults. So I'm sorry I did. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I was trying to impress you all, and I conflated
Speaker 2: black people with monkeys. Who among us? Who among us?
Speaker 3: But to the larger question, what were you saying? I know,
Speaker 3: I think Carlos Carlos just for me, has always rang
Speaker 3: very Latino, and then the shock of black sort of
Speaker 3: like opened my eyes to a new world, I would say.
Speaker 3: But maybe I'm just ignorant. Maybe there's there's a world
Speaker 3: of carlos Is out there that I haven't experienced yet.
Speaker 2: Well, here's what I'm saying. The two black Carlos's I
Speaker 2: know are from California. Maybe it's a West Coast.
Speaker 3: Thing, now, see that I could see, because especially in
Speaker 3: LA there's so much Latino culture just cooked into LA
Speaker 3: culture in a way that like almost seems like that.
Speaker 3: I mean, in some ways it is almost the primary
Speaker 3: culture of Los Angeles.
Speaker 2: I mean, I think of the West in general, like, yeah,
Speaker 2: the primary of the West, but it's like the urban
Speaker 2: West is very Latino culture so much so they're like
Speaker 2: when I go to Philly and nobody's talking about tacos,
Speaker 2: I'm like, what the fuck is this? Right?
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's just everything has a little bit to do
Speaker 3: with being Latino out here.
Speaker 2: Everybody drinks margarita's. Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah. I was at
Speaker 2: a bar in Cleveland and they had patron girls patron
Speaker 2: bottle girls where they give out or no in Pittsburgh.
Speaker 2: This was in Pittsburgh years ago, they had patron girls
Speaker 2: where they were given out patron and I was with somebody.
Speaker 2: I was on tour, so I was with some from
Speaker 2: California and we were like, hell yeah, free patron and
Speaker 2: the girls were like, nobody drinks this out here because
Speaker 2: nobody knows what tequila is. We can't even give it away.
Speaker 2: Whoa Yeah, And I was like, this town is trash.
Speaker 2: I was gonna say, is that a Pittsburgh problem? That
Speaker 2: might be.
Speaker 3: That might be problem that seems like a real Pittsburgh issue.
Speaker 2: Yeah it is. I was like, I gotta get out
Speaker 2: of here, but also give me that free patron because
Speaker 2: that's shit, you know, that's a nine dollars shot.
Speaker 3: We're calling upon you because we have we have new merch.
Speaker 3: We have very exciting merch that we are now selling
Speaker 3: and it's it's fucking great.
Speaker 2: We love it so much. Just sleek, it's sexy.
Speaker 3: Come on, you want to tell them what we have?
Speaker 2: Yeah, we have three different types of hats, which is
Speaker 2: really fun. We have a two tone hat, an alien
Speaker 2: dad hat, the traditional logo and black and cat. Then
Speaker 2: we have the enamel pin with an alien who has
Speaker 2: a coofie on it. Since my mama told me. And
Speaker 2: then we have t shirts that say proud little Mama,
Speaker 2: which is who you are.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you can buy the merch now, go to my
Speaker 3: mama told me dot merch table dot com. It's a
Speaker 3: brand new name, but it's the same old merch and
Speaker 3: we would love for you to get some if you
Speaker 3: haven't got it already, and we want you to have
Speaker 3: all the sweet stuff, so get it.
Speaker 2: Anyways, let's get to this cemil huh yeah, please, we've
Speaker 2: done enough so from cord not yeah, yeah, Cordero Corda.
Speaker 2: We don't know your name. The title Jamaican rat soup.
Speaker 2: Come on, you had usit rat, you had us a
Speaker 2: Jamaican rat. Oh yeah, hey like send it David, big
Speaker 2: fan of the show, been listening for years. It's better
Speaker 2: now that you had a day, so Legson doesn't have
Speaker 2: to carry all the weight of being funny and hosting.
Speaker 2: I would like to make it clear I think Legson
Speaker 2: is both funny and hosting.
Speaker 3: Still, I don't think it was a slight I think
Speaker 3: that was the nice thing, Just that it just felt
Speaker 3: very It felt like a very clinical assessment, right right.
Speaker 3: What changed where it's like I'm glad you're here because
Speaker 3: Langston had too much work to do before. And it's like, yeah, okay,
Speaker 3: yes that's fair, that's reasonable, it's a hundred.
Speaker 2: I wanted to be clear I will not be doing
Speaker 2: any research going forward, but I'm here. I got the jokes, baby,
Speaker 2: you got.
Speaker 3: The jokes, and we appreciate those jokes.
Speaker 2: That's all. That's all I ever wanted. All right, here's
Speaker 2: my conspiracy theory. My mother in law is Jamaican, like
Speaker 2: from the bush country backwards, Jamaican, that's your old issue.
Speaker 2: And she is always telling stories of local herbs and
Speaker 2: that they used there. She is always telling me how
Speaker 2: her granddad used to tell her which herbs to find
Speaker 2: and where to find them. Yesterday she told me that
Speaker 2: a Jamaican cure for asthma was to catch a wild rat,
Speaker 2: boil it, and eat the soup from the boiled rat.
Speaker 2: Do you know about this? Thanks guys. PS this is
Speaker 2: my third attempt to get my conspiracy theory on the show,
Speaker 2: just saying well you had us until the PS.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I didn't care for that PS one bit, But but
Speaker 3: what do you want from my SCRD. It's it's it's
Speaker 3: a busy program. Quite honestly, you're lucky that we read
Speaker 3: that PS late and that we don't read the whole thing,
Speaker 3: because read it you would not have been picked. So
Speaker 3: how about that to the question of boiling wild rat?
Speaker 3: And wild feels very high intensity word there, because what
Speaker 3: is a wild rat?
Speaker 2: How many rats aren't wild? Yeah?
Speaker 3: There are. I just assumes that we're not talking about
Speaker 3: like grass fed, free range rats. We're talking about real
Speaker 3: fucking rats. That's how they get that way. It's by
Speaker 3: being out there, Yeah, doing rat stuff.
Speaker 2: You catch rats? I don't. I never heard like a
Speaker 2: rat farm, right, and.
Speaker 3: I think there are some like there used to be
Speaker 3: those kids at school. I knew like two kids at
Speaker 3: school growing up who had like a pet rat, and
Speaker 3: you you're always looking at them weird because it's like, bro,
Speaker 3: that's that's an outdoor animal. That's not even that's.
Speaker 2: Not even meant to be. And my lower self esteem
Speaker 2: here is I dated a woman who had a pet rat.
Speaker 2: It was oh fuck, it was.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they'd be like, they'll train them a little bit,
Speaker 3: and it wasn't.
Speaker 2: It was they had that gross warm and I had
Speaker 2: I was like, I pretended to be cool with it,
Speaker 2: and then after a while I had to look at
Speaker 2: my heart and be like, what do you do it? No?
Speaker 3: Wait, so when you say not trained, she couldn't even
Speaker 3: like take it out impeted and shit.
Speaker 2: I mean she could take it out and petted, but
Speaker 2: it wasn't like it didn't do tricks. It was just
Speaker 2: a dirty rat. Yeah, it's you know, in the early twenties,
Speaker 2: you make a lot of bad moves.
Speaker 3: No, yeah, that's not a girl that I would want
Speaker 3: to be with. But I respect that that that was
Speaker 3: part of the journey that got you to where you are.
Speaker 2: I tried it, you know what I mean. You gotta
Speaker 2: try it or you don't want to try it, because
Speaker 2: I need it for you. It's it's jay z blueprint. Yeah,
Speaker 2: come on, Hovee did that? So hopefully you.
Speaker 3: Ain't got to go through that.
Speaker 2: Uh, I don't so, I will say off the top,
Speaker 2: I never heard of this in my life. This sounds
Speaker 2: I didn't even I guess somewhere in the back of
Speaker 2: my mind, I knew that people might possibly eat rat. Listen,
Speaker 2: I've grown up in like, I never grown up. Rats
Speaker 2: have always been contaminated to me.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I wear a meal of And I
Speaker 3: don't mean this in a pejorative way. I just thought
Speaker 3: they were a meal of desperation. That like it was like, oh,
Speaker 3: we are a nation war torn and struggling to you know,
Speaker 3: feed ourselves. Therefore we eat rat. We don't just do
Speaker 3: that out of like part of the culture, right, Like.
Speaker 2: I don't get the feeling that there are cultures where
Speaker 2: rat is a primary dish. Now, I don't know. I
Speaker 2: just don't feel like rodents in.
Speaker 3: General, right Yeah, No, I don't think so.
Speaker 2: Like nobody's eating like mouse salad or anything. No.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know that to be a common thing anywhere.
Speaker 2: Except for those big ones. What are the big ones?
Speaker 2: Cucka bears kuype of Kika Capi bears Capy bears that
Speaker 2: those that actually looks like it could have some good meat. Yeah.
Speaker 3: I don't know what it is, but that just the
Speaker 3: weasel family ain't exactly hidden for me.
Speaker 2: Or I go like numb numb numb by that he
Speaker 2: means Jamaicans.
Speaker 3: I I'll say this, I while I did not know
Speaker 3: anything about this, I I certainly had not had no
Speaker 3: previous knowledge of people eating rat as like part of
Speaker 3: a dish. It's especially interesting to me that this is medicinal.
Speaker 3: This isn't like what what cord is describing is not
Speaker 3: just that like, oh you eat rat because it's a
Speaker 3: secretly delicious dish, have some rat soup with your dad.
Speaker 3: It's they're saying that, like this is meant to here asthma.
Speaker 2: That's a crazy one. Dude.
Speaker 3: You can't breathe, chomp up that rat, Come on, man,
Speaker 3: boil that rat for about two hours and uh and well,
Speaker 3: kira a thing that we thought was permanent for most people.
Speaker 3: I think that's my understanding of asthma.
Speaker 2: Stuff like this, though it only has to work one time, right,
Speaker 2: Like there was one guy who's breathing funny, he ate
Speaker 2: some rat, and then now it's like we eat rats. Yeah. Yeah, Yeah.
Speaker 3: It's like how they cured that dude's cancer that one
Speaker 3: time with like the weird I can't remember what it was,
Speaker 3: but they like did a bunch of blood transfusion things
Speaker 3: and then they cured them. They literally cured cancer with
Speaker 3: one person, but they don't really know how to replicate it.
Speaker 3: And you know, it's like, well, well, yeah, we technically
Speaker 3: cured cancer. We're an advanced society. And it's like, no,
Speaker 3: you just helped one guy and the rest of us.
Speaker 2: Are awesome bodies are goofy man. Maybe one guy ate
Speaker 2: some rat in his aspa what a way. I can't
Speaker 2: I can't guarantee that those two things were connected, but
Speaker 2: you know what I mean.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean we literally black plague wiped out I
Speaker 3: think it's something like fifty million people on the planet.
Speaker 3: It like literally killed off like an entire, like major
Speaker 3: percentage of human life on this planet. And it was
Speaker 3: all started and spread by rats.
Speaker 2: No, we know they dirty. They're dirty, and I advocate
Speaker 2: for exotic meats heavily. Everybody knows that I stand for
Speaker 2: exotic meats. But rats stay stay in the garbage.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they're they're a filthy, filthy bunch. So for this
Speaker 3: to somehow be a substitute for herbs, I'm gonna say
Speaker 3: that that's a bad plan. I don't I'm not gonna
Speaker 3: say that it doesn't exist. I'm certainly not gonna belittle
Speaker 3: the culture that sort of recognizes it. Maybe in the
Speaker 3: same way that like we eat pigs feet and there's
Speaker 3: no real logic to that anymore.
Speaker 2: We're not saying that you're not gonna have sickle cell
Speaker 2: if you eat pigs feet.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know that we've made the full connection yet.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the research is still the result certain conclusive.
Speaker 3: I don't know that science says, uh, put pigs feet
Speaker 3: plus your mouth equals sickle cell. But I do recognize
Speaker 3: that you're saying that maybe we're causing bigger problems than ourselves,
Speaker 3: and we see that. But that said, I think rat
Speaker 3: might just be that for them where it's like, oh,
Speaker 3: you're holding on to a thing that like is somebody
Speaker 3: did instead of just being honest and being like we
Speaker 3: shouldn't do that.
Speaker 2: That's not helping because also the smaller the sample group,
Speaker 2: the less I believe in the you know what I'm saying, Like,
Speaker 2: if it's just like if it's just like it's not
Speaker 2: even Jamaican's as the whole who say this, it's this
Speaker 2: like one small backwater town that says it, then I'm
Speaker 2: like less inclined. Like if it was the whole nation,
Speaker 2: then I'd be like, Okay, well maybe let's check it out. Well,
Speaker 2: this is where I think you're gonna get some troubling news.
Speaker 2: And the Olivia sent to us that this is a
Speaker 2: popular Jamaican folk remedy. The recommended treatment for whooping cough
Speaker 2: was rat soup. Whooping cough house I never know how
Speaker 2: to quite say it. Whooping household rats were safe from
Speaker 2: the soup pot. It was the brush rat found in
Speaker 2: Canefield provided a bush rat excuse me, provided a cure
Speaker 2: for whooping cough. Some believe bush rat soup is the
Speaker 2: stuff of legend, but others swear by the use and
Speaker 2: curative properties of rat soup. I'm curious.
Speaker 3: So it does sound like in Jamaica specifically, there is
Speaker 3: a distinction between rats that would be digging through your
Speaker 3: trash and rats that are truly like out in the
Speaker 3: wilderness ass rats.
Speaker 2: Right, I mean?
Speaker 3: Also, yo, though I I I googled rat soup, I
Speaker 3: don't like it. Do they like leave the head in
Speaker 3: or some is it some weird it's.
Speaker 2: It's just not cool.
Speaker 3: Oh oh, let me get it.
Speaker 2: Let me get Oh yeah, why is it?
Speaker 3: Well, isn't meatballs?
Speaker 2: No, that that's the Halloween recipe. You gotta keep going.
Speaker 3: Oh oh, they just put the whole body in. Yeah, terrible.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they don't even you gotta cut them tails off. Yeah,
Speaker 2: they don't.
Speaker 3: Even for our listeners at home, they're not even cutting
Speaker 3: the heads or the tails. They're not like separating the meat,
Speaker 3: so you forget what you're eating. It's just a whole
Speaker 3: ass rat and his friends at the bottom of a bowl.
Speaker 2: And that's It's a tough it's a tough look. I
Speaker 2: mean that being said, Listen, I'm all for an alternative medicine.
Speaker 2: I don't love big pharma either. That being said, maybe
Speaker 2: keep your inhaler on hand.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I would say that there's maybe a fair argument
Speaker 3: to say rat soup can't be worse than us than
Speaker 3: like oxycotton, you know what I mean. I think there's
Speaker 3: a there's probably the the violence that these drugs have
Speaker 3: done to us is as substantial, if not more dangerous,
Speaker 3: than whatever rat soup could do to you. That said,
Speaker 3: there are other ways of solving your asthma issue, and
Speaker 3: you should maybe explore those before you eat a whole
Speaker 3: ass rat in juice as you.
Speaker 2: Although if it's a bush rat that seems fine. I mean,
Speaker 2: just don't do the rat like the rats in my alley.
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: If you eat a if you at home are thinking
Speaker 3: I should eat a New York rat, you are wrong
Speaker 3: and you won't be here for much longer.
Speaker 2: Those are the worst rats. Urban rats in general are terrible,
Speaker 2: but New York is the worst rats, right, and I.
Speaker 3: Of my experience, Yeah, they just don't give a fuck
Speaker 3: in a way that is exceptional to everybody else's rat.
Speaker 2: Ow Like you wouldn't see that pizza rat in another city.
Speaker 3: Yeah, No, it's It's like there were times walking home
Speaker 3: in Brooklyn at night where like I was scared because
Speaker 3: trash can it was trash day, and they all got
Speaker 3: lined up on the side, and I just knew every
Speaker 3: like twenty steps a rat was going to run in
Speaker 3: front of me.
Speaker 2: And you ever see like in New York where somebody
Speaker 2: like somebody jostles a pile of trash or some shit
Speaker 2: and they all are run. That shit isn't Yeah, that
Speaker 2: shit's awful.
Speaker 3: No, Yeah, I don't New York rats feel exceptional one
Speaker 3: I've said, I've definitely there are other cities I've lived
Speaker 3: in where the rat situation was crazy, but New York
Speaker 3: just just does it different.
Speaker 2: Shout out to LA for not really having rats.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, not a lot, not a lot.
Speaker 2: The only time I ever seen them is like downtown
Speaker 2: LA and rarely.
Speaker 3: I see him. But I don't see them like that,
Speaker 3: you know what I mean, Like when I see one,
Speaker 3: I'm like, oh shit, right, yeah, exactly, Okay, I didn't
Speaker 3: know this was this kind of neighborhood.
Speaker 2: They're true, they're they're they're The population is growing though,
Speaker 2: because I never used to see him in Denver. Now
Speaker 2: I've been seeing them and pigeons.
Speaker 3: Like you think the pigeon population is spiking where you are?
Speaker 2: I think somehow we're becoming more urban of a city.
Speaker 2: I seen. I was on the walk the other day,
Speaker 2: I seen black Hebrew is realites. M So if you
Speaker 2: have that's the three the three barks of a real.
Speaker 3: City, those are the three infestations you gotta look out for.
Speaker 3: Is uh, rat, pigeon and of course black Hebrew is
Speaker 3: real life.
Speaker 2: It was funny because where I saw him too, they
Speaker 2: were over they were downtown on the mall, and I
Speaker 2: was like, Yo, there's only Mexicans over here. What are
Speaker 2: you think? And who do you call for?
Speaker 3: Black Hebrew?
Speaker 2: Israelite? You know what I mean?
Speaker 3: Reasing pigeons exterminator that's in the phone book.
Speaker 2: Okay, I'm not we already got a target on our back.
Speaker 2: I'm not going. I'm not going. Carlos come out.
Speaker 3: He's okay, he's all right.
Speaker 2: He's a lot of things, all right. That one.
Speaker 3: Olivia goes on to say that bush rats are considered
Speaker 3: to be clean animals, and according to members of rat
Speaker 3: eating communities, I don't like the way that that's what
Speaker 3: their meat is said to be tasty and healthy. Uh
Speaker 3: cdc quote unquote still working on it. Yeah, they're not
Speaker 3: working on anything, which is why we got to get
Speaker 3: a supplement. We do we we and I don't. I
Speaker 3: think we gotta. We gotta sort of find an angle
Speaker 3: that isn't really tapped into right right, Like I don't
Speaker 3: think we go for like make your dig hard. We
Speaker 3: got to stay away from digs. Oh No, I think
Speaker 3: I think it's not hard. I think we want we
Speaker 3: want like a semi hard like our pill. We can
Speaker 3: give you a pill that will keep you semi hard
Speaker 3: for like days, yeah, for like like twelve hours.
Speaker 2: What is that foring?

Speaker 3: you gotta take your pants off. You want to be
Speaker 3: a little.
Speaker 2: Almost like like you know what, I know what you
Speaker 2: mean three quarters.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you want that ship to be like popping, but
Speaker 3: you don't really want to have to like explain yourselfing,
Speaker 3: like you don't.
Speaker 2: Want to be necessarily flexing. But they need to know
Speaker 2: there's muscles under the shit. Come on.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think if we could, if we could nail
Speaker 3: that supplement market, I think we've got a big profit
Speaker 3: coming our way.
