1 00:00:00,960 --> 00:00:12,000 Speaker 1: Welcome to Stuff you Should Know fromhouse stuff Works dot com. Hey, 2 00:00:12,600 --> 00:00:21,480 Speaker 1: welcome to the podcast. I'm Josh Clark. There's Charles Chucky. 3 00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:24,159 Speaker 1: Do you realize that some people might this might be 4 00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:28,479 Speaker 1: the first episode they listened to and they've already turned 5 00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:32,400 Speaker 1: it off and they're writing an iTunes review? Something's wrong 6 00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:35,960 Speaker 1: with that guy? Yeah? What's up with the manga? I 7 00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:38,880 Speaker 1: can't believe they're it's so popular? How does anyone listen 8 00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:43,599 Speaker 1: to him? Yeah? What's up with the Yeah? And how 9 00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:46,879 Speaker 1: are they in the top ten? And that guy? It 10 00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:50,000 Speaker 1: must be like the a MSR thing? What is that? 11 00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:53,320 Speaker 1: You know? Where that? Uh? People make videos where they're 12 00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:56,320 Speaker 1: like stroking your hair, but it's really they're just moving 13 00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:59,200 Speaker 1: their hand by the camera. They're talking like this, what 14 00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:05,440 Speaker 1: really we calming? But there's a subset of humans who 15 00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:10,560 Speaker 1: have a central nervous reaction. I just had one, but 16 00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:15,039 Speaker 1: it's pleasurable. They call him like a brain orgasm, a 17 00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:17,840 Speaker 1: a m s R. I think is R A s R. 18 00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:20,080 Speaker 1: I think it's a M s R. I don't remember 19 00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:22,399 Speaker 1: what it stands for. But it's like a meditative video 20 00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:27,280 Speaker 1: type of thing. I guess to some people, apparently you 21 00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:30,680 Speaker 1: have like a reaction to it, and it's very pleasurable. 22 00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:33,560 Speaker 1: But it's non sexual. It's it's well when you just 23 00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:36,480 Speaker 1: whisper neurological to me, I had a bad react, right, 24 00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:40,480 Speaker 1: I can imagine. So I I don't claim to be 25 00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:42,800 Speaker 1: one of those people. Man, oh man, this is getting 26 00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:44,240 Speaker 1: off to a good start. But we should do an 27 00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:46,640 Speaker 1: episode on that sometime. We people have requested it a 28 00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:48,440 Speaker 1: few times. Yeah, I want to. I'm gonna go find 29 00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:49,560 Speaker 1: out what it is. Is we have to go to 30 00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:51,760 Speaker 1: the trouble writing an article for because there's not one 31 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:54,000 Speaker 1: that's okay. I got a few of those in the 32 00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:56,440 Speaker 1: hopper that I'd like to do. I do too, I 33 00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:58,120 Speaker 1: just haven't been able to get around to him. You've 34 00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 1: been lazy. No, I've been busy. I said, we are 35 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:06,920 Speaker 1: you ready? Are you familiar with halitosis? With with hold, 36 00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:10,400 Speaker 1: I've got a little intro for this. You've heard the 37 00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:13,359 Speaker 1: word halitosi is obviously we're about to do an episode 38 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:16,359 Speaker 1: on halitosis, so I hope so. But even before this, 39 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:19,480 Speaker 1: you've heard the word halitosis bad breath. It's like a 40 00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:22,280 Speaker 1: clinical term for bad breath. And that is true, and 41 00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:25,080 Speaker 1: it always was a clinical term for bad breath. But 42 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:28,400 Speaker 1: the reason, Chuck, that you and I know that the 43 00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 1: word halitosis means bad breath is thanks to a nice 44 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:35,000 Speaker 1: little marketing scheme by the three guys who ran the 45 00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:39,520 Speaker 1: company that made listerine back in the nineteen twenties. Yeah. 46 00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:42,960 Speaker 1: We we've talked about Dr Joesph lister before and that 47 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:47,120 Speaker 1: listerine was an antiseptic, surgical antiseptic, yes, and that's and 48 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:49,920 Speaker 1: it was marketed as a surgical antiseptic and then a 49 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 1: household antiseptic. And then they said, you know what we're 50 00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:55,840 Speaker 1: we need to expand our market share, so let's get 51 00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:59,080 Speaker 1: into other markets. And so they said mouthwash. We'll start 52 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 1: telling people use it mouthwash. And they made like their 53 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 1: office in turn, put some in his mouth, switch it around. 54 00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:08,160 Speaker 1: He died. So they went and reformulated it a little 55 00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:11,960 Speaker 1: bit at a little water, right, uh, and then bang boom, 56 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:16,079 Speaker 1: they had listering the mouthwash. The problem was, as they said, well, 57 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:19,000 Speaker 1: nobody's going to just start using a mouth wash for 58 00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:22,640 Speaker 1: no good reason. We have to appeal to their low 59 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:26,639 Speaker 1: self esteem. And that's what they did by looking through 60 00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:31,760 Speaker 1: a medical dictionary, finding the word halitosis and saying that's it. Yeah, 61 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,760 Speaker 1: it's an age old trick and adds is to prey 62 00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 1: upon your how bad you feel about yourself on a 63 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:43,360 Speaker 1: daily basis. Yeah, and especially using a medical jargon Michelle 64 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:46,680 Speaker 1: who called it the medical gaze, where it was basically like, 65 00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:51,119 Speaker 1: if you add something that sounds medically to a problem 66 00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:55,280 Speaker 1: that your product can can take care of you, you've 67 00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 1: got gangbusters right there. Yeah. And it was an archaic term, 68 00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:02,119 Speaker 1: Latin term that had gone away completely. Yeah. It comes 69 00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:06,000 Speaker 1: from the Latin halitus for breath and the Greek suffix osis, 70 00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:10,400 Speaker 1: which is used to indicate abnormality or a disease state. Yeah, 71 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:13,400 Speaker 1: but prelistering people weren't walking around saying the word halitosis. 72 00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 1: It had gone the way of the dodo as a word. No. 73 00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:18,119 Speaker 1: And even still it was kind of like people weren't 74 00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:21,240 Speaker 1: really doing a lot to take care of their breath anyway. 75 00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 1: It wasn't a thing until this group from the Listering 76 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:28,040 Speaker 1: company said we're gonna make it a thing, and we're 77 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:31,159 Speaker 1: gonna make using mouthwash to combat this thing a thing, 78 00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:34,719 Speaker 1: and they did within a decade. It was just basically 79 00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 1: like that's what you did, use mouthwash every morning? Yeah, 80 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:39,800 Speaker 1: and they I thought it was pretty funny and where'd 81 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:41,919 Speaker 1: you get that cracked? Yeah? Correct, Yeah, it was a 82 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:44,360 Speaker 1: great article, and they said they went on to use 83 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:48,600 Speaker 1: other words uh in advertising later on, like homatosis, which 84 00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:51,840 Speaker 1: is you didn't have a tract of furniture, and uh 85 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:55,760 Speaker 1: bromodosis if you had smelly feet. Yeah, and I don't 86 00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:57,719 Speaker 1: think those that they didn't catch on as well, not 87 00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:01,360 Speaker 1: like halatosis. For some reason, halitosis catch on and as 88 00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:05,200 Speaker 1: a result, there are people out there who have haldophobia. 89 00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:09,080 Speaker 1: I'm one of them. Oh yeah, not like I don't 90 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 1: need to see a shrink. But um, my first girlfriend 91 00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:16,360 Speaker 1: had halitosis. Yeah, And I think I can say that 92 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:18,840 Speaker 1: because I don't think she listens, and I don't think 93 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:21,120 Speaker 1: she knows she was my first girlfriend. Like I never 94 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:24,720 Speaker 1: said you're my first girlfriend, right, But yeah, she had 95 00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:29,359 Speaker 1: bad and I say halitos. It's to me, there's a 96 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:32,440 Speaker 1: difference between Everyone gets bad breath occasionally, but there's a 97 00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:38,800 Speaker 1: certain tang that's very identifiable that I call halitosis. And 98 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:41,040 Speaker 1: she had it, and I, you know, I felt like 99 00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:42,840 Speaker 1: I had to kiss her and stuff. This is my 100 00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:46,680 Speaker 1: first girlfriend. I had to learn how to do that junk. Yeah, man, 101 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 1: And it was. I have dreams to this day, halitosis 102 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:55,599 Speaker 1: kissing dreams that I like, we'll see something like gorgeous 103 00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:56,840 Speaker 1: girl in my dream and I go to kiss her 104 00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 1: and she has like this awful rotten breath. Like it's 105 00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:02,960 Speaker 1: a occurring dream. So I guess I have holodophobia. I'm 106 00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:05,599 Speaker 1: very aware of it, and that's why I have a 107 00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:08,680 Speaker 1: tongue scraper and all that junk. Well, apparently that's one 108 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:11,000 Speaker 1: way to treat it. Yeah, well, we're getting ahead of ourselves, 109 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:15,000 Speaker 1: so spoiler, and I should say I have had a 110 00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:17,320 Speaker 1: mild case of holodophobia. It may or may not have 111 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:19,680 Speaker 1: been warranted. I don't know. I have my own microphone 112 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:21,800 Speaker 1: cover for that reason. I know, but it's not because 113 00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:25,240 Speaker 1: you're protecting other people from your halitosis, right, You don't 114 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:28,520 Speaker 1: want your nose and other people's stuff, right, Yes? Okay, 115 00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:31,559 Speaker 1: because the microphone cover at one point smells really bad 116 00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 1: and I got revolted and I ordered one the next day. Right, 117 00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:39,599 Speaker 1: So how halidophobia refers to your fear of your bad breath, 118 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:44,760 Speaker 1: you fearing other people? Yeah, yeah, that's a different thing then. Okay, Yeah, 119 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:47,680 Speaker 1: I was worried I have bad breath. I guess part 120 00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:49,960 Speaker 1: of me, like I have that concern because of other 121 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 1: people's bad breath about myself too though. I think that's 122 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:55,280 Speaker 1: why I'm like manic about brushing my tongue. Oh yeah, 123 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:57,200 Speaker 1: that's where I really got it. I sat next to 124 00:06:57,240 --> 00:06:59,320 Speaker 1: a movie I sat next to some dude in a 125 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:02,560 Speaker 1: movie theater once, and like he was facing forward, I 126 00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:05,640 Speaker 1: was facing forward and I almost couldn't sit next to 127 00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:08,360 Speaker 1: him the whole time because it was that bad. You 128 00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:12,680 Speaker 1: should have moved. I don't know why I didn't. Let's 129 00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:15,320 Speaker 1: become my self punishing, I guess. No. I used to 130 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:17,440 Speaker 1: do that, like a concerts. I always said that I 131 00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 1: would just always time be next to the most obnoxious 132 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:25,760 Speaker 1: drunk and I used to just bother me and get 133 00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 1: under my skin. But then I was like, you know what, 134 00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:30,040 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna start moving. Yeah, this didn't make me like. 135 00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:32,320 Speaker 1: I wasn't mad at the guy. Felt horrible for him, 136 00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:34,880 Speaker 1: almost to the point where like I was going to 137 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:37,360 Speaker 1: get in my car and follow him home, and then 138 00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:40,560 Speaker 1: like after he got into his house, I was going 139 00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 1: to come in after him and then sit him down 140 00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:47,000 Speaker 1: and then maybe we have like um, some milk or something, 141 00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:50,200 Speaker 1: get him all calmed down. Let him sleep, and then 142 00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:51,760 Speaker 1: when he woke up the next morning, I'd still be 143 00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:54,280 Speaker 1: sitting in his kitchen table, and then I would say 144 00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:58,400 Speaker 1: to him, I have something to tell you. And then 145 00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:01,920 Speaker 1: I would say, you have really bad breath, man, and 146 00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:07,040 Speaker 1: he'd say, no, crap, dude, I have a condition. Well 147 00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:10,200 Speaker 1: that's why you don't necessarily want to say anything to anybody, 148 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:15,760 Speaker 1: because they may Yeah, so let's get down to this. Garlic, onions, 149 00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:18,960 Speaker 1: these are the things that people frequently associate, how it's 150 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:22,760 Speaker 1: hostes with yeah, which is a bunch of bs. Well no, 151 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:24,840 Speaker 1: I mean like it can give you bad breath, yeah, 152 00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:26,960 Speaker 1: But that to me, that's the temporary bad breath that 153 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:29,800 Speaker 1: one gets just from food. Yeah. And the reason why 154 00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:32,120 Speaker 1: you do get bad breath from, say, like onions in 155 00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:36,480 Speaker 1: particulars because garlic, I'm sorry, garlic contains something called allison, 156 00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:40,679 Speaker 1: which in the stomach is converted to alle methyl sulfide, 157 00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:44,160 Speaker 1: which is not metabolized and which comes back up as 158 00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:46,840 Speaker 1: gas from your gut. So when you have bad breath 159 00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:49,920 Speaker 1: from onions, it's not onion particles in your mouth still, 160 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:54,040 Speaker 1: that's gas leaking out of your gut into your mouth 161 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:56,720 Speaker 1: and just kind of sticking there. For a couple of hours. 162 00:08:56,760 --> 00:09:02,000 Speaker 1: You ever take garlic bills? Yeah, there they Yeah, I'd 163 00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:04,400 Speaker 1: just rather eat garlic any day of the week. Yeah, 164 00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:06,080 Speaker 1: I mean I eat tons of garlic. I love it. 165 00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 1: But I have taken garlic pills in the past here 166 00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:10,520 Speaker 1: and there, and I will forget that I've taken one 167 00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:14,640 Speaker 1: and then you broke up like for breakfast. But it 168 00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 1: doesn't taste like good garlic. It tastes aftful. It's medicinal garlic. 169 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:22,280 Speaker 1: I didn't find I mean, the pill didn't taste like anything, 170 00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:25,480 Speaker 1: but my burps definitely taste garlic. See, it was for me, 171 00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:28,400 Speaker 1: I always. I just thought it was different, tastes different. Yeah, 172 00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:30,480 Speaker 1: I'd just rather like cut the top off of a 173 00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:33,360 Speaker 1: whole bulb of garlic, put some olive oil on it, 174 00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:36,200 Speaker 1: wrap it and foil, or put it in your clay 175 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:39,240 Speaker 1: garlic baker and put it in the oven for a 176 00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:42,440 Speaker 1: little while and show down. Baby. Yeah, just squeeze those 177 00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:45,600 Speaker 1: things right into your mouth. Good. Yeah, and it's so 178 00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:51,680 Speaker 1: good for you. We're in stinct today. Uh so you 179 00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:55,000 Speaker 1: say you you your bed is that you don't your 180 00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:59,600 Speaker 1: garlic and onions don't count to you? No, I think 181 00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 1: they're there is bad breath you can just have because 182 00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:04,880 Speaker 1: maybe you forgot to brush, or obviously morning breath, which 183 00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 1: we'll get to. And then I think some people, unfortunately, 184 00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:13,199 Speaker 1: are have a constant state of uh this very specific 185 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:16,360 Speaker 1: bad breath. Yeah. So I think one in four people 186 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:21,600 Speaker 1: have actual halitosis. Right, that seems a little high. But 187 00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:25,559 Speaker 1: maybe people are just doing a good job of masking it. 188 00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:31,160 Speaker 1: Maybe so, but some people aren't. So. Um, what it 189 00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:36,160 Speaker 1: comes down to, ultimately, chuck, halitosis is as simple as 190 00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 1: the bacteria in our mouth. Yeah, the fact that we 191 00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:41,319 Speaker 1: have bacteria. It's the same thing as our armpits. Why 192 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 1: they smell bacteria breaking down stuff from our bodies beneficially 193 00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:52,320 Speaker 1: in distincty little gases, yeah, and giving off little bacteria 194 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:59,240 Speaker 1: to the The average person has eight hundred types of 195 00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:02,760 Speaker 1: bacteria in the mouth, and um, they don't need Like 196 00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:04,280 Speaker 1: it's a good thing. They don't tell kids stuff like 197 00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:10,079 Speaker 1: this growing up in school because French kissing probably wouldn't happen, 198 00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 1: you know, Well, well then maybe they should tell kids 199 00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:17,560 Speaker 1: in school there, but it's really kind of a disgusting thing. 200 00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:21,199 Speaker 1: Like you don't see people licking armpits. Some people might, 201 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 1: Ben Stiller, Yeah, what was that in Was it Ben 202 00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:27,360 Speaker 1: Stiller who was into it? I saw it? Or was 203 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:30,120 Speaker 1: it a movie? Right? Yeah, I've seen that flirting with 204 00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:33,240 Speaker 1: Disaster Ben Still, but I can't remember if it was 205 00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:36,040 Speaker 1: Ben Stiller who was into it, or if it was 206 00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:41,760 Speaker 1: Josh Brolin was into Uh, Patricia Arquette's armpits, that's right, yeah, 207 00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:44,360 Speaker 1: and Patricia Arquette was married to be still, Yeah, and 208 00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:48,280 Speaker 1: she let him lick her armpit. I love that movie. 209 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:54,360 Speaker 1: You Can't Catch the Wind, remember that part um all right? 210 00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:57,720 Speaker 1: Back to the mouth and how disgusting it is. Uh. 211 00:11:57,760 --> 00:12:00,920 Speaker 1: They say, if you magnified just a single cell on 212 00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:02,839 Speaker 1: the surface of that tongue, you would see about a 213 00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:06,520 Speaker 1: hundred types of bacteria just on that cell. So this 214 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:10,240 Speaker 1: this bacteria. When you eat and you swallow food after 215 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:15,400 Speaker 1: masticating it, which isn't dirty, it means to uh, you 216 00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:18,040 Speaker 1: leave little particles in your mouth. It gets stuck in 217 00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:22,920 Speaker 1: your teeth there. Maybe it's like you have beginning periodonal disease. 218 00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:25,120 Speaker 1: It might get stuck in your gums along your teeth 219 00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:27,720 Speaker 1: a little bit. The very least, it's gonna get stuck 220 00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:30,160 Speaker 1: to the back of your tongue and it just kind 221 00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:32,960 Speaker 1: of sits there, and the bacteria in your mouth love 222 00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:35,320 Speaker 1: this stuff. It's food to them, and they break it 223 00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:37,559 Speaker 1: down into particles and particles and they're like, this is 224 00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:39,840 Speaker 1: pretty good, but I can't get the energy from it fully. 225 00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:42,760 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna break down the amino acids even further 226 00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:46,320 Speaker 1: and then bam. When I do, I'm going to basically 227 00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:52,040 Speaker 1: emit sulfur sulfuric gases, and that's where bad breath comes from. 228 00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 1: There's sulfuric gases that are again a byproduct of the 229 00:12:57,120 --> 00:13:00,840 Speaker 1: bacteria eating the food particles in your mouth. Yeah, let's 230 00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:04,800 Speaker 1: over proteins. Yeah, and it's um. The mouth is a 231 00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:07,240 Speaker 1: you know, it's a great breeding ground for it because 232 00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 1: it's clammy and warm and it's just got everything that 233 00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:16,720 Speaker 1: the bacteria loves to produce those stinky, stinky smells. Um. 234 00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:20,080 Speaker 1: But dry mouth can also cause halitosis because that's what 235 00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:22,520 Speaker 1: you get overnight and why you have stinky morning breath 236 00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:26,560 Speaker 1: because your saliva production decreases when you sleep, Otherwise you 237 00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:29,520 Speaker 1: just be a drooling mess. Um. I wonder why that 238 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:32,520 Speaker 1: doesn't work during naps on your school desk. I don't know, 239 00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:34,319 Speaker 1: you know, I guess because you don't go to sleep 240 00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:37,640 Speaker 1: enough maybe or if like your face is pressing against wood, 241 00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:41,560 Speaker 1: it's a signal of your body to increase wake up, 242 00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:45,040 Speaker 1: the teacher is coming. But chronic dry mouth UM is 243 00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:47,680 Speaker 1: something that can affect people during the daytime as well. 244 00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:52,920 Speaker 1: It's called zero stomia and um. If you have zerostomia, 245 00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:56,200 Speaker 1: you're gonna have a harder time fighting your bad breath 246 00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:59,000 Speaker 1: because your mouth is always dry. Like the mouth the 247 00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:03,080 Speaker 1: saliva just acts as a natural mouthwah exactly. Not only 248 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:05,840 Speaker 1: rinses away like food particles, it rints his way bacteria. 249 00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:08,200 Speaker 1: It rents is away the dead skin cells and dead 250 00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:12,000 Speaker 1: mouth cells that the bacteria also eat. Um. And Yeah, 251 00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:15,680 Speaker 1: the dryer it is, the less that action takes place. 252 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:19,040 Speaker 1: And you've got stinky breath. Yeah. So if you're on 253 00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:25,360 Speaker 1: anahistamines or um any depressants or painkillers, uh, dry mouth 254 00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:26,920 Speaker 1: is a side effect of some of those drugs, so 255 00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:29,520 Speaker 1: you might have a harder time. Uh. And if you're 256 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:32,320 Speaker 1: sick anyway, you're gonna stinky your breath too. Like if 257 00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:37,040 Speaker 1: you're fighting a sinus infection, let's say it's gross yes 258 00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:41,200 Speaker 1: breath because that mucus trickles back from your sinuses down 259 00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:45,760 Speaker 1: to your tongue and sits there and gets eaten up 260 00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:49,720 Speaker 1: to nasty stuff. Is this whole thing? I'm just cringing. 261 00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:53,000 Speaker 1: I'm gonna have one of those dreams to it. There's 262 00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:57,120 Speaker 1: you could a sninky hello toastis breath dream? Yes, the 263 00:14:57,120 --> 00:15:00,320 Speaker 1: hot girl bad breath. It's always the same.

She thinks it's because of my uh, 266 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:11,360 Speaker 1: repressed religious upbringing, repressed sexuality. Like I won't even in 267 00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:14,640 Speaker 1: my dreams allow myself to kiss the model. That's hilarious, 268 00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:17,960 Speaker 1: Like she'll have I call it vomit tongue. It's so gross. 269 00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:19,880 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that is pretty bad. Yeah. If they're the 270 00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:21,880 Speaker 1: worst dreams, I can't explain to you because they're really 271 00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:25,480 Speaker 1: headed in the right direction at first, you know, and 272 00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:28,160 Speaker 1: it's terrible. And when you're an old mary man, that's 273 00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:31,920 Speaker 1: all you got. I got, you know, vomit tongue.

Can you imagine 287 00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:25,600 Speaker 1: what mousey breath smells like? Like? Apparently your breath smells 288 00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:30,360 Speaker 1: like live writhing mice, mousey breath. I can't think of 289 00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:32,240 Speaker 1: what else it would denote. I don't know what a 290 00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:37,000 Speaker 1: mouse smells like.

Yeah, okay, Yeah, that is 295 00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:56,640 Speaker 1: something that will warn you about if you're trying to 296 00:16:56,680 --> 00:16:59,640 Speaker 1: attain what's known as ketosis with like an apkins type 297 00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:04,200 Speaker 1: diet um. Some people, when they are reached that blissful 298 00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:07,520 Speaker 1: level of fat burning, it also takes their it's toll 299 00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:10,159 Speaker 1: on their their mouth and their breath. Yeah, it's like 300 00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:15,360 Speaker 1: a fruity, acid tony smell. Okay, that sounds better than mousey. Yeah, 301 00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:19,760 Speaker 1: it's it's gonna better than yeah. Yeah, when you're in keytosis, 302 00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:23,880 Speaker 1: you when you deprive your body of carbohydrates, it doesn't 303 00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:26,040 Speaker 1: have that energy to burn right there, so it starts 304 00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:29,040 Speaker 1: turning inward and going after your fat stores. And when 305 00:17:29,119 --> 00:17:34,640 Speaker 1: the body burns store fat, keytnes are what is released 306 00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:37,800 Speaker 1: as energy or burned as energy. And this, yeah, it's 307 00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:41,919 Speaker 1: the smell from burning keytones is what gives you that 308 00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:45,040 Speaker 1: fruity breath. Yeah. I've seen websites, you know that they 309 00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:47,239 Speaker 1: now have the articles. Of course, if you're if this 310 00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:48,880 Speaker 1: is the diet you want, this is how you can 311 00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:52,240 Speaker 1: help yourself. And one of the things us always eat bread. 312 00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:55,840 Speaker 1: It's like, yeah, but all of a sudden, you're not 313 00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:59,240 Speaker 1: on that diet. Yeah, so that's no solution. Yeah, you 314 00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:02,320 Speaker 1: can get knocked that of quitos is pretty easy. I'm sure. Yeah, 315 00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:06,080 Speaker 1: I think eating bread would do. Uh well, I guess 316 00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:09,640 Speaker 1: we should talk about um after a message break maybe 317 00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:13,440 Speaker 1: how you can help yourself out if you have plitosis. 318 00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:21,040 Speaker 1: All right, so let's say you are sadly just one 319 00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:25,720 Speaker 1: of those people that just has that funky breath one 320 00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:29,200 Speaker 1: in four right, Yeah, if you're among that, it does 321 00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:33,920 Speaker 1: seem high. Yeah doesn't. And that's like chronic halitosis, right yeah, 322 00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:37,399 Speaker 1: where it's not just like you know, brushing your teeth 323 00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:42,919 Speaker 1: isn't gonna do the trick. Yeah, yeah, that sounds like 324 00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:45,679 Speaker 1: a fact brought to us by the Listerine company. It 325 00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:49,840 Speaker 1: might be, but like I said, maybe um of those 326 00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:52,840 Speaker 1: people are really trying their hardest so you don't notice it, 327 00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:57,240 Speaker 1: and other people are just smoking cigarettes and drinking coffee 328 00:18:57,280 --> 00:19:00,280 Speaker 1: all day, which is a bad combination. Yeah, it's pretty 329 00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:03,160 Speaker 1: bad combinations. Does somehow they become greater than the sum 330 00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:07,680 Speaker 1: of their party, you know? Yeah, but that's uh, that's 331 00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:11,320 Speaker 1: breakfast for college students, you know. Cigarettes. So what do 332 00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:13,399 Speaker 1: you do if you're if you're gonna battle this stuff, 333 00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:16,680 Speaker 1: if it's more than just something like just a breath 334 00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:19,399 Speaker 1: mant can handle what's going to happen here? Well, the 335 00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:21,760 Speaker 1: breath mant just good thing to mention that that can 336 00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:25,040 Speaker 1: provide a little temporary relief, but it's just masking the 337 00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:28,320 Speaker 1: funk underneath. Right. She's really not gonna get very far 338 00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:31,040 Speaker 1: as a solution, No, because all it's doing is creating 339 00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:34,800 Speaker 1: the sensation of freshness in your mouth. Yeah, because it 340 00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:37,960 Speaker 1: I get I don't know what breath mints do. Have 341 00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:45,440 Speaker 1: frequently wondered, like, what is like um um mental do 342 00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:47,920 Speaker 1: does that open up your pores? So like the air 343 00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:50,960 Speaker 1: feels colder and fresher? Oh, I don't know, Like what 344 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:54,200 Speaker 1: creates that sensation? You don't know? That sounds like a 345 00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:56,080 Speaker 1: don't be dumb episode to me, but I think it 346 00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:59,320 Speaker 1: might be. Um. What you want to do is get 347 00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:02,199 Speaker 1: to the root of the problem, which is at bacteria 348 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:05,639 Speaker 1: and uh, like we said, food particles in your teeth 349 00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:11,480 Speaker 1: um is a big cause. So brushing and flossing and 350 00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:13,720 Speaker 1: the old tongue scraper and brushing the back of the 351 00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:17,080 Speaker 1: tongue you scrape the tongue. Doesn't that make you gag? No, 352 00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:19,480 Speaker 1: it doesn't bother me. I've gotten used to it. I mean, 353 00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:21,840 Speaker 1: you know, occasionally, if I overreached, that might be a 354 00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:26,159 Speaker 1: little but I'm not like retching in the bathroom every morning. 355 00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:29,560 Speaker 1: I think we should keep a webcam in your bathroom 356 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:32,119 Speaker 1: when you're getting ready, just to catch those times that 357 00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:39,280 Speaker 1: you do just make a comple vine compilation hilarious. Uh 358 00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:42,359 Speaker 1: So attacking the source of the food particles, and you know, 359 00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:44,680 Speaker 1: I have the fake tooth now, so I have to 360 00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:49,000 Speaker 1: be extra careful to really brush along there because why 361 00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:51,120 Speaker 1: I think it would be like they've made it out 362 00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:56,080 Speaker 1: of some new super polymer that like reflects bacteria. Now 363 00:20:56,160 --> 00:21:00,160 Speaker 1: that the tooth itself is not the source, but it's um. 364 00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:02,280 Speaker 1: You know where it meets the gum is not a 365 00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:05,920 Speaker 1: natural tooth. So yeah, I just have to like really 366 00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:08,560 Speaker 1: brush the crap out of that area. My gum, you 367 00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:11,480 Speaker 1: get the crap out. I don't use mouthwash that which 368 00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:17,119 Speaker 1: is interesting. No toothpaste, well apparently, um it's not necessarily 369 00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:20,680 Speaker 1: and plenty of mouthwash is a suggestion for this um, 370 00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:25,399 Speaker 1: specifically types that contain according to the British Medical Journal, uh, 371 00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:30,320 Speaker 1: chloro hexadrine glucinate, chlora hexadrine glucinate or what you want, 372 00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:34,400 Speaker 1: because they kill bacteria. I take issue with this. Yeah, 373 00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:37,480 Speaker 1: one of the main functions of mouthwash isn't to just 374 00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:41,880 Speaker 1: go in and kill bacteria. Although most mouthwashers do that. Um, 375 00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:45,919 Speaker 1: it's the swishing action loosens food particles and gets them 376 00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:51,879 Speaker 1: out from in between your teeth. What I'm saying is 377 00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:54,960 Speaker 1: you don't necessarily need to use a mouthwash that kills 378 00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:59,120 Speaker 1: bacteria because you kind of want healthy bacteria. You want 379 00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:03,840 Speaker 1: what's called the um uh an oral ecosystem in your 380 00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:09,040 Speaker 1: healthy oral ecosystem or ecology in your mouth uh you 381 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:14,240 Speaker 1: want remember remember the poop Shake episode, the poop transplant 382 00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:18,440 Speaker 1: vehical transplant episode, we ended up talking about the microbiome 383 00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:22,119 Speaker 1: and how important it is to humanityature same thing with 384 00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:24,000 Speaker 1: our mouth. Yeah, you don't want to kill all that 385 00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:27,040 Speaker 1: bacteria now, And there's plenty of bacteria that causes problems, 386 00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:30,920 Speaker 1: like Streptococcus mutans is what gives us cavities. But there's 387 00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:33,600 Speaker 1: also plenty of beneficial bacteria where you would have a 388 00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:37,560 Speaker 1: mouthful of dead skin cells all over your tongue if 389 00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:40,520 Speaker 1: it weren't for this helpful bacteria breaking the stuff down. 390 00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:44,440 Speaker 1: It's your problem. Everybody wants to kill bacteria. That's not 391 00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:46,480 Speaker 1: necessarily a good thing. As a matter of fact, I 392 00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:48,199 Speaker 1: think we're learning more and more that it's not a 393 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:52,040 Speaker 1: good thing. So I say avoid the mouthwash that kills 394 00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:56,000 Speaker 1: bacteria and just use some sort of mouthwash that maybe 395 00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:58,960 Speaker 1: has a minty flavor, but it's just really just swishing 396 00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:02,040 Speaker 1: the food particles out and getting rid of the bacteria's 397 00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:09,560 Speaker 1: food that's creating their stinky sulfur ducks. Yes, exactly, um. 398 00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:11,280 Speaker 1: And because getting rid of the food is a big 399 00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:14,320 Speaker 1: part of it, I would suggest brushing your teeth after 400 00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:17,240 Speaker 1: lunch too, you know, like don't make it just when 401 00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:19,840 Speaker 1: you get up and before you go to bed. I say, 402 00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:23,680 Speaker 1: go for three times a day. Whoa man who has 403 00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:28,040 Speaker 1: time for that? Everybody? Another good trick is to drink 404 00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:31,760 Speaker 1: a lot of water. Um. But you know, just keeping 405 00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:34,720 Speaker 1: your mouth hydrated daily basis is gonna help. You said 406 00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:39,280 Speaker 1: that saliva is like a natural mouth wash. Water helps. 407 00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:42,920 Speaker 1: It does the same thing, loosens food particles, gets rid 408 00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:44,800 Speaker 1: of dead skin cells. In the back of your tongue 409 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:48,400 Speaker 1: apparently is like ground zero for it. Like I think 410 00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:53,359 Speaker 1: there's like twenty times more bacteria there than elsewhere because 411 00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:56,160 Speaker 1: it's like this bumpy surface that's out of the way 412 00:23:56,200 --> 00:23:59,240 Speaker 1: of all this other stuff, So things really stick and 413 00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:02,520 Speaker 1: accumulate back there. So that's the that's an area you 414 00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:05,520 Speaker 1: want to target. Apparently with the tongue scraper. Yeah, and 415 00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:07,400 Speaker 1: you could just brush it as well. I do both. 416 00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:09,479 Speaker 1: But if you are a grown adult and you're not 417 00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:13,040 Speaker 1: either brushing your tongue or using a tongue scraper, then 418 00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:15,679 Speaker 1: you're not doing it right. Is that right? Yeah, somebody 419 00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:17,800 Speaker 1: needs to teach you. I give a quick part of 420 00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:21,720 Speaker 1: a quick you know, brush with with my toothbrush over 421 00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:25,640 Speaker 1: my tongue. But I worry about killing taste buds like 422 00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:28,680 Speaker 1: I love tasting things. You're not gonna kill any taste buds. 423 00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:32,240 Speaker 1: Sure you can kill taste buds with that. Uh, well, 424 00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:35,080 Speaker 1: I haven't killed any. Are you sure? Think about what 425 00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:39,879 Speaker 1: kind of a super taster you could be without your scraper? No, 426 00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:41,840 Speaker 1: I do worry about that. I'm kind of like, I'd 427 00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:44,359 Speaker 1: rather have low level bad breath and be able to 428 00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:49,240 Speaker 1: taste great stuff then have no bad breath whatsoever and 429 00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:51,679 Speaker 1: not be able to taste I would rather have no 430 00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:55,080 Speaker 1: bad breath and still taste everything. Well, yeah, that's the 431 00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:58,919 Speaker 1: holy grail. What kind of like flim flam world? Are 432 00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:02,400 Speaker 1: you living it? It's called Chuck's life. It's nice, it's nice. 433 00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:05,320 Speaker 1: If none of this stuff works for you, you you may 434 00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:07,680 Speaker 1: have a problem. Like you might want to go see 435 00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:11,200 Speaker 1: a dentist, uh, and maybe even a doctor. Well, yeah, 436 00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:15,040 Speaker 1: the dentist might say, yeah, I go the doctor you 437 00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:18,560 Speaker 1: have a mousey breath, which means your liver shutting down, 438 00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:21,480 Speaker 1: and find a new dentist. You know, there's a smell 439 00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:25,000 Speaker 1: test that they do that dennists do. Yeah, what they'll 440 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:27,800 Speaker 1: do is still say, Okay, this is gonna be gross, 441 00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:31,000 Speaker 1: but I want you to breathe through your mouth and 442 00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:35,520 Speaker 1: I'm going to sniff close to your mouth. And then 443 00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:37,720 Speaker 1: they say, okay, now I want you to breathe through 444 00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:40,240 Speaker 1: your nose and I'm gonna sniff close to your nose, 445 00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:44,560 Speaker 1: and they can determine whether it's a nasal and like 446 00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:47,080 Speaker 1: a problem in your nasal cavity, I can give you 447 00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:51,840 Speaker 1: bad breath, you can have stinking sinuses, so gross, or 448 00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:54,399 Speaker 1: if it's in your mouth, and then they can further 449 00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:57,119 Speaker 1: to do like yeah, if it's not dentist doing this, yeah, 450 00:25:57,160 --> 00:25:59,720 Speaker 1: and if it's in your if it's coming through your nose, 451 00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:03,440 Speaker 1: it's suggests possibly not just your sinuses, but it could 452 00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:05,480 Speaker 1: be pulmonary to like you could have some sort of 453 00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:09,480 Speaker 1: lung problem that's creating gases that stink and they're coming 454 00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:11,359 Speaker 1: out of your nose rather than your mouth. So I 455 00:26:11,359 --> 00:26:13,320 Speaker 1: guess they train you to do that indental school. Huh. 456 00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:16,160 Speaker 1: I guess i'd have to. That's not a very popular day, 457 00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:20,880 Speaker 1: you know, everybody pair up. Oh my god, and there's 458 00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:23,159 Speaker 1: the one guy in the corner like eating a sandwich, Like, 459 00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:27,680 Speaker 1: what can I give a two more tips? Please get 460 00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:33,639 Speaker 1: ten more if you eat a crunchy breakfast like granola, 461 00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:35,880 Speaker 1: cereal or something like that, Okay, it's going to clear 462 00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:38,359 Speaker 1: out a lot of the gunk from the night before. 463 00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:40,359 Speaker 1: You just want to make sure you get rid of 464 00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:44,280 Speaker 1: all those food particles afterwards. And then if you're interested 465 00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:52,480 Speaker 1: in a mouth wash that is not antibacterial really certainly Yeah. 466 00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:55,080 Speaker 1: Uh it's you take a half a cup of warm 467 00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:57,600 Speaker 1: water and eighth of a teaspoon of cinnamon and one 468 00:26:57,600 --> 00:27:01,960 Speaker 1: teaspoon of honey, swirl all together and uh, swish it 469 00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:06,040 Speaker 1: around and gargle it. That's like um, like old timey 470 00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:09,800 Speaker 1: mouthwash apparently. Yeah, and we could probably recommend apple cider 471 00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:17,280 Speaker 1: vinegar just for anything that's like the wonder the wonder liquid. 472 00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:19,720 Speaker 1: It seems like, dude, I was once on my way 473 00:27:19,760 --> 00:27:26,360 Speaker 1: to a full blown kidney or um, maybe urinary your 474 00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:30,720 Speaker 1: urinary infection, some bladder infected. Something was going on, and 475 00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:33,720 Speaker 1: it was starting to go downhill fast, and you muse, 476 00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:36,520 Speaker 1: like drink this and drink a lot of it. And 477 00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:40,600 Speaker 1: I started drinking apple cider vinegar and like raw cranberry juice, 478 00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:44,119 Speaker 1: like the real cranberry juice. UM over like about an 479 00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:47,040 Speaker 1: eight to twelve hour period, like really hit it and 480 00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:51,280 Speaker 1: um gone, and like it was happening, like that happening 481 00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:54,200 Speaker 1: was going on, and like I afforded it. He stopped 482 00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:57,439 Speaker 1: the happening. I do a shot every morning now of 483 00:27:57,560 --> 00:28:01,800 Speaker 1: apple cider vinegar, and don't get the just the stuff 484 00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:03,760 Speaker 1: in the store that you you should be cooking and 485 00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:06,159 Speaker 1: cleaning with. There's the I can't remember the brand, but 486 00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:11,160 Speaker 1: there's the the super potable one, but the one that, yeah, 487 00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:14,080 Speaker 1: the one that that you'll find it a health food store.

You guys sold it 506 00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:12,600 Speaker 1: so hard like and we just threw it together. We 507 00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:15,160 Speaker 1: were like, hey, let's just try. It wasn't some big plot. 508 00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:18,360 Speaker 1: We there's no practice plan for weeks and weeks like, hey, 509 00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:20,160 Speaker 1: maybe we should do an Apri Fool's joke this year. 510 00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:22,000 Speaker 1: And I said, hey, maybe I quit the show and 511 00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:24,520 Speaker 1: Ben took my place, and you guys just waned it 512 00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:27,840 Speaker 1: and like nailed it.

You kept going like cut, cut, stop, stop, 515 00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:36,479 Speaker 1: and we're like, no, we have to press on. So 516 00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:39,720 Speaker 1: we're not jokesters typically, but it was I think it 517 00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:41,840 Speaker 1: was the only one to be released on April Fools Day. 518 00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:44,240 Speaker 1: Was the first time we had the opportunity to release 519 00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:46,680 Speaker 1: one on April Fools and look out two years from now, 520 00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:49,360 Speaker 1: because that'll be a yeah yeah. But if we do 521 00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:51,920 Speaker 1: like Josh left the show, everyone be like no, no, no, 522 00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:55,800 Speaker 1: or they'll be expecting that yeah, and we'll do it 523 00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:58,320 Speaker 1: and they'll be like, well, wait a minute, they thought that. 524 00:29:58,400 --> 00:30:00,840 Speaker 1: I would think that, you know, maybe we could give 525 00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:02,960 Speaker 1: you like I don't know, you could have a heart 526 00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:07,600 Speaker 1: attack on the show or something. Uh. But anyway, we 527 00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:11,440 Speaker 1: got an outpouring of people because I was dead or missing. 528 00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:15,400 Speaker 1: I know, people really really reacted to that. Like a 529 00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:19,200 Speaker 1: lot of people said they didn't realize how much they 530 00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:23,200 Speaker 1: needed you until well we're gone. And yeah, there were 531 00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:24,880 Speaker 1: plenty of people who said, like Josh, I pit had 532 00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:26,360 Speaker 1: been you, I would have felt the same way. But 533 00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:28,320 Speaker 1: um well I got to play the martyr. I got 534 00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:30,040 Speaker 1: the plumb roll. It was nice. It's like I got 535 00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:32,400 Speaker 1: had to do nothing and just get showered with actualation, 536 00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:34,520 Speaker 1: but it was it was very neat to see, like 537 00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:37,760 Speaker 1: people were like, never leave, don't ever do that again, 538 00:30:37,840 --> 00:30:40,160 Speaker 1: and it was pretty cool. Actually yeah, and also I 539 00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:42,160 Speaker 1: want to say I'm a half of Ben. He asked 540 00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:45,080 Speaker 1: us to to let everybody know whenever we could that 541 00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:48,840 Speaker 1: he actually was purposely sounding terrible. What he was doing. 542 00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:51,800 Speaker 1: He like that was play acting. Yeah. Yeah. The whole 543 00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:54,000 Speaker 1: point was like we wanted it to be super awkward, right, 544 00:30:54,280 --> 00:30:56,680 Speaker 1: I think you guys achieved that. Okay, So so go ahead, 545 00:30:56,800 --> 00:30:59,320 Speaker 1: back from the dead Chuck. So this from Matt from 546 00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:03,680 Speaker 1: Athens or Joe, Uh go dogs. Hey guys, my girlfriend 547 00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:05,440 Speaker 1: I have been listeners for years. I didn't realize just 548 00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:07,360 Speaker 1: how important the show was to us though, until your 549 00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:09,920 Speaker 1: April fools Day show. I had listened to the episode 550 00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:13,160 Speaker 1: before she did, and he didn't even tell her. That's 551 00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:15,560 Speaker 1: kind of mean. And I was keen on setting her 552 00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:16,840 Speaker 1: up for the gag, so I sat it out in 553 00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:19,200 Speaker 1: the kitchen table and told her that, uh stuff you 554 00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:21,320 Speaker 1: should know at some big news. I knew she'd be 555 00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:23,160 Speaker 1: sucked into the prank, but was not prepared for what 556 00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:26,440 Speaker 1: happened next. She started to cry and denounced the show 557 00:31:26,480 --> 00:31:29,120 Speaker 1: with one of you gone, saying she would stop listening. 558 00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:31,920 Speaker 1: She was worried about Chuck. I even had people are 559 00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:34,400 Speaker 1: worried about Emily. They were like they thought Emily was 560 00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:39,080 Speaker 1: in the hospital. Chuck started um. She said she would 561 00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:41,480 Speaker 1: stop listening and was worried about Chuck and started tossing 562 00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:45,800 Speaker 1: out possible explanations like the best of conspiracy theorists. She 563 00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:47,880 Speaker 1: was so sad that I had to fast forward to 564 00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:52,640 Speaker 1: the reveal. After her surprising yet pretty cute reaction, I 565 00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:56,200 Speaker 1: was hoping to swap out her emotional connection for a 566 00:31:56,240 --> 00:31:59,760 Speaker 1: birthday shout out. She's a contemporary dancer and uses the 567 00:31:59,800 --> 00:32:03,320 Speaker 1: id is in your podcast and her classes in choreography. 568 00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:07,080 Speaker 1: I think dances about Alan Turning. I gotta see this. Yeah, 569 00:32:07,120 --> 00:32:10,000 Speaker 1: it's crazy. I ad met this pretty crass way of 570 00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:12,920 Speaker 1: getting a happy birthday, but I think it's worth a shot. So, Matt, 571 00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:16,600 Speaker 1: you didn't tell us your girlfriend's name, So we're just 572 00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:19,440 Speaker 1: gonna say happy birthday to Matt's girlfriend from Athens.
