00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:40,239
Speaker 1: as I explained, No, we talked about regular stuff that

10
00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:44,640
Speaker 1: didn't influence my my feelings about this. But you're still

00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:17,000
Speaker 1: get out of it. Yeah, we'll give it a shot. Yeah.

21
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:21,200
Speaker 1: So aside from that, I had my condom on, so

22
00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:25,440
Speaker 1: I was safe driving. That's good. Yeah, you always wear one, right,

23
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:32,720
Speaker 1: you can't be too careful? How often do you change it? Gross? May?

24
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:35,360
Speaker 1: That is so gross? All right? Uh, let's talk about

25
00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:37,920
Speaker 1: Measure B. Have you heard a Measure B. H. It

26
00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:41,200
Speaker 1: is a referendum that Los Angeles County floated in this

27
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:45,640
Speaker 1: last election that passed of the vote. Um, it said,

28
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:47,960
Speaker 1: if you're in the porn industry and you're filming, you

29
00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:51,400
Speaker 1: have to wear a condom. Good. Well, it depends on

30
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:56,480
Speaker 1: who you are. If you are a citizen, yeah, you

31
00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:58,640
Speaker 1: probably think it's good, especially if you voted in favor

32
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:00,880
Speaker 1: of it. Sure. If you're in the porn industry, though,

33
00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:04,640
Speaker 1: you're like, people don't want to see that, and um,

34
00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:08,639
Speaker 1: they're actually talking about moving from Los Angeles, which is

35
00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:10,680
Speaker 1: a big deal. People, I don't want to see a

36
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:13,639
Speaker 1: condom in their porn movies. I guess I don't want

37
00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:19,000
Speaker 1: to see any of that stuff. I don't want to

38
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:21,960
Speaker 1: see what's attached to the condom either. Okay, so you

39
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:25,760
Speaker 1: wouldn't care? Uh no, yeah, I guess so I don't

40
00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:28,639
Speaker 1: want to see any stuff. Like apparently there's a longstanding

41
00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:30,919
Speaker 1: thing in the porn industry. It's like, you just don't

42
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:34,400
Speaker 1: show condoms. It just it reflects the unnatural nous maybe

43
00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:37,320
Speaker 1: of of what you're seeing. Um, what you're like, Well,

44
00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:39,720
Speaker 1: wait a minute, that's probably not the pizza guy after all,

45
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:44,160
Speaker 1: you know. So um, it blows the illusion that that's

46
00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:48,600
Speaker 1: real stuff. So they're talking about about moving from Los Angeles,

47
00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:52,519
Speaker 1: which is huge Los Angeles because apparently in just Los

48
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 1: Angeles County porn it's a billion dollar industries in the valley,

49
00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:00,840
Speaker 1: just in one county. Can you imagine in that So

50
00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:03,799
Speaker 1: there's a big carefuffle going on right now over condom

51
00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:06,120
Speaker 1: usage in the porn industry. To ever tell you about

52
00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:09,920
Speaker 1: the time I scouted the porn stage for video shoot. No,

53
00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:13,280
Speaker 1: was this did key for Sutherland's driver take you there? No,

54
00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:14,920
Speaker 1: But I was working as a p A and we

55
00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:17,280
Speaker 1: couldn't afford like a real stage, so we they sent

56
00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:18,799
Speaker 1: me out to the valley of this porn stage to

57
00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:21,720
Speaker 1: go videotape it and see what it looked like. And uh,

58
00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:24,639
Speaker 1: it just like a boardroom with a bed in the corner,

59
00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:28,200
Speaker 1: and a candy shop with a bed, and a gymnasium

60
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:31,480
Speaker 1: locker room. With a bed. It was really gross and

61
00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:34,480
Speaker 1: I didn't want to touch anything. And uh, as I

62
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:37,320
Speaker 1: was leaving, a bunch of big muscly men came in

63
00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:40,600
Speaker 1: to get their shoot on. Oh is that right? Yeah,

64
00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:44,400
Speaker 1: was a gay porn I had that afternoon. It was Oh,

65
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:46,680
Speaker 1: so it's just like whatever. It's like, it's a it's

66
00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:50,040
Speaker 1: a sound stage. Yeah, they take all comers, you know.

67
00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:52,960
Speaker 1: And so these two dudes walked in and I walked out,

68
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,360
Speaker 1: and I don't think we ended up using the stage,

69
00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:59,600
Speaker 1: but it was funny. In the conference room set there

70
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:02,520
Speaker 1: was a framed like Olan Mills or I was a

71
00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:06,960
Speaker 1: painting of Burt Reynolds and Lonnie Anderson like at the

72
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:10,240
Speaker 1: head of the conference room. No way, yep, sort of got.

73
00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:13,600
Speaker 1: That's one thing about porn and stream moguls. They seem

74
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:15,600
Speaker 1: to always have like a great sense of humor. I

75
00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:17,720
Speaker 1: think this is before Boogie Nights, even because I didn't

76
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:20,200
Speaker 1: make that connection. It was just Burt Reynolds. That was

77
00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:23,480
Speaker 1: definitely before Boogie Nights. But I mean think about Larry Flint,

78
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:28,239
Speaker 1: He's he has a great sense of humor. Um, Hugh Hefner.

79
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:33,040
Speaker 1: Maybe I think the less hardcore you get, the less

80
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:35,640
Speaker 1: away the further away from hardcore, you get the less,

81
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:37,839
Speaker 1: the less of a sense of humor. The publisher has.

82
00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:41,960
Speaker 1: I bet there's some mathematical formula in there. We'll see

83
00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:47,359
Speaker 1: it one day, alright, So condoms is what we're talking about. Um,

84
00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:49,760
Speaker 1: we should say, if you're young, you might want to

85
00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:52,000
Speaker 1: ask your parents if you should listen to this. Oh man,

86
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:54,159
Speaker 1: you know that is a good c o A like.

87
00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:56,320
Speaker 1: I think it's up to parents how they educate their

88
00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:59,880
Speaker 1: children with this stuff. So we have you have been

89
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:03,680
Speaker 1: war Warren. Go put your little pot uh player down, Goss,

90
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:06,240
Speaker 1: Mom and dad? Should I be listening to this? We're

91
00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:09,960
Speaker 1: gonna be very clinical here, but it's about sex and reproduction,

92
00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:12,440
Speaker 1: so it can't be too careful. I wonder how many

93
00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:17,520
Speaker 1: kids just like pull the cheeks over? What do you think?

94
00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:22,120
Speaker 1: I don't know? Vast majority? Okay, so um, let's try

95
00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:29,039
Speaker 1: this again. We're talking condoms, um, and apparently they what

96
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:34,839
Speaker 1: we think of as condom usage normal, widespread. It's talked about,

97
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:41,719
Speaker 1: there's billboards whatever. Is actually a fairly recent phenomenon. The

98
00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:44,360
Speaker 1: billboards and things. Yeah, and just the idea of like

99
00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:49,400
Speaker 1: using condoms like that's that's pretty recent. Um. From the eighties.

100
00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:53,120
Speaker 1: And actually it was HIV that kind of um spurred

101
00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:57,120
Speaker 1: this condom age that we live in now. But there

102
00:05:57,120 --> 00:06:00,440
Speaker 1: have been like another golden age of condoms, uh shortly

103
00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:05,440
Speaker 1: after the Great War, right, that's right. Venarial diseases were

104
00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:07,800
Speaker 1: pretty easy to get if you were a sailor on

105
00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:12,200
Speaker 1: leave in Europe, and so they encouraged troops to uh

106
00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:15,440
Speaker 1: use use condoms and distributed them in the in the ranks,

107
00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:19,160
Speaker 1: among the ranks, and when they came back home, they

108
00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:21,320
Speaker 1: kept using. My guess they hit a big boom here

109
00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 1: in the in the nineteen what I guess forties. Post

110
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:27,680
Speaker 1: war era died down in the sixties because the pill exactly,

111
00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:29,679
Speaker 1: and then picked back up again in the eighties because

112
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:33,119
Speaker 1: of HIV. Yeah, because we we figured out things too clever,

113
00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:36,480
Speaker 1: things like penicillin and all that stuff. Um that most

114
00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:39,799
Speaker 1: of the STDs that condoms were preventing at the time

115
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:43,400
Speaker 1: you could just treat with antibiotics. So people weren't too

116
00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:45,080
Speaker 1: concerned with that kind of thing. And then the pill

117
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:46,680
Speaker 1: came along and I was like, we have no need

118
00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:50,640
Speaker 1: for condoms orsoever. But then and then condoms us had

119
00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:54,880
Speaker 1: started to go through the roof, which is good. Yeah, Um,

120
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:59,840
Speaker 1: but apparently condoms are an extremely old idea. At the

121
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:04,919
Speaker 1: at least, putting something on the over your penis, whether

122
00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:08,799
Speaker 1: for recreational purposes or whatever, is at least fifteen thousand

123
00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:12,480
Speaker 1: years old. Right, Yeah, I think Tracy of pop Stuff

124
00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:15,480
Speaker 1: wrote this article. We should point out she's responsible for

125
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:18,640
Speaker 1: the most comprehensive podcasts we've done. Yeah. I never even

126
00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:20,400
Speaker 1: think twice when I look in and see her name

127
00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:24,400
Speaker 1: in the Byline'm like, oh, well, we should totally do this. Um. Yeah.

128
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:26,600
Speaker 1: She points out that fifteen thousand years ago we have

129
00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:32,120
Speaker 1: found cave paintings that show images of a sheathed penis. Yes,

130
00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:37,120
Speaker 1: so it's unclear whether or not these garments and decorations

131
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:40,200
Speaker 1: and sheaths on the penises of Egypt and Greece and

132
00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:45,120
Speaker 1: India and Japan were for uh, contraception, as a barrier

133
00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:49,720
Speaker 1: method or adornment. I guarantee they weren't probably thinking of

134
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:55,200
Speaker 1: the woman's comfort, No, especially when all yeah, the Japanese

135
00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:58,600
Speaker 1: version of the penis sheath or condom was made of

136
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:03,000
Speaker 1: horn or Tortoiseshell, they didn't care about the lady's pleasure.

137
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:06,840
Speaker 1: That's just mind boggling, my painful sound me. I don know,

138
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:13,400
Speaker 1: no kidding. Um, so we know people started using condoms

139
00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:17,280
Speaker 1: as a means to prevent pregnancy by the Roman era,

140
00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:21,360
Speaker 1: I think, of course. Yeah, anytime it's sexty times stuff.

141
00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:24,560
Speaker 1: They were leading the way totally. You know. Yeah, anybody's

142
00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:28,480
Speaker 1: see Caligula can tell you that. Um. But then by

143
00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:34,560
Speaker 1: the time Shakespeare rolls around, condoms are pretty common. Yeah

144
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:39,760
Speaker 1: if you count you know, wrapping linen around the penis

145
00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:42,120
Speaker 1: and tying it in a little bow with a ribbon

146
00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:46,440
Speaker 1: at the bottom. That's a condom back then, or stuffing

147
00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:49,920
Speaker 1: something into the urethra and using a draw string, um, ribbon.

148
00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:53,640
Speaker 1: But it's another way that they did things. I should

149
00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:57,320
Speaker 1: post um photos of your facets of your face that

150
00:08:57,360 --> 00:09:01,080
Speaker 1: I'm taking like throughout this episode. Yeah. Um. And well

151
00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:05,200
Speaker 1: by the time Shakespeare's age, Uh, people are using condoms

152
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:06,840
Speaker 1: pretty frequently. And one of the things they're using it,

153
00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:08,960
Speaker 1: probably the main thing they're using it for, is to

154
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:13,320
Speaker 1: prevent syphilis, because just like in World War Two, sailors

155
00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:17,720
Speaker 1: to the New World came and contracted this new disease

156
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:22,000
Speaker 1: that was found only in North America at the time. Um,

157
00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:26,480
Speaker 1: and or I should say the Western hemisphere. Uh. And uh,

158
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:29,120
Speaker 1: they brought it back, and they figured out after a

159
00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:30,880
Speaker 1: little while like, oh wait a minute, I think it

160
00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:32,959
Speaker 1: has to do with sex. So they started using condoms

161
00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:35,000
Speaker 1: for a disease prevention through that. So this is a

162
00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:38,920
Speaker 1: pretty big point here, right, Like by the the age

163
00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:42,680
Speaker 1: of exploration, people understand that you can cover the penis

164
00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:47,240
Speaker 1: to prevent pregnancy and to prevent disease. Yeah, that's a

165
00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:50,480
Speaker 1: huge advancement in society. I guess totally. They were. They

166
00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:53,080
Speaker 1: were on it. They still like rolled in their own

167
00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:55,320
Speaker 1: feces and like she ever washed their hands or took

168
00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:57,960
Speaker 1: a bath, but they knew how to prevent syphilis with

169
00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:02,040
Speaker 1: a little something in the urethro the draw stream. That's right.

170
00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:06,000
Speaker 1: By the mid seventeen hundreds, Tracy points out, they were

171
00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:10,520
Speaker 1: starting to use um condoms made from animal membranes, animal

172
00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:14,000
Speaker 1: guts basically, which if you they still have these today,

173
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:17,120
Speaker 1: if you use something called cheapskin, it is not cheap skin,

174
00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:20,280
Speaker 1: but it is you know, cheap guts and testine lining. Yeah,

175
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:22,200
Speaker 1: and you can still buy those. I think they were

176
00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:24,680
Speaker 1: about what like one percent of the total sales these days.

177
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:29,200
Speaker 1: And they recommend those only if you are like a

178
00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:32,600
Speaker 1: monogamous couple. That's disease free and you're just using it

179
00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:36,400
Speaker 1: to like not get pregnant because it's very thin. Yeah,

180
00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:40,360
Speaker 1: but it's not. It's it's porous, I believe enough for

181
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:42,679
Speaker 1: pathogens to pass through. Yeah. Like you don't want to

182
00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:47,960
Speaker 1: use that if to prevent getting HIV? No, not smart? Um,

183
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:52,280
Speaker 1: Well you want to use is a rubber condom. That's right.

184
00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:55,360
Speaker 1: Thank you Charles Goodyear, Yeah, who gave us not only

185
00:10:55,520 --> 00:11:02,120
Speaker 1: rubber condoms, but um tires, uh, ebber hoses, rubber belts,

186
00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:04,760
Speaker 1: pretty much anything that they made of rubber. You can

187
00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:07,880
Speaker 1: thank Charles Goodyear for it because of his process of vulcanization,

188
00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:12,520
Speaker 1: which is he added um sulfur and lead oxide to

189
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:18,640
Speaker 1: rubber from the Heavia Braziliens tree. Yeah, which they had

190
00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:21,839
Speaker 1: been tapping that tree for a while to get this,

191
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:25,800
Speaker 1: you know latex, this liquid rubber but um. Yeah. Volcanization

192
00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:28,600
Speaker 1: is where it became a thing that you could mask,

193
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:30,920
Speaker 1: you know, produced and it was safe and it was

194
00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:35,960
Speaker 1: uh stronger and uh more elastic, so you know, less

195
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:39,200
Speaker 1: likely to break, but it was also thicker and rougher.

196
00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:41,880
Speaker 1: You had to go to your doctor to be fitted

197
00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:44,600
Speaker 1: for one of these condoms. The good the good part

198
00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:47,240
Speaker 1: is you could wash and reuse it. It was basically

199
00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:49,800
Speaker 1: like your your your condom. You probably wrote your name

200
00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:51,800
Speaker 1: on it. I imagine if you got fitted though, in

201
00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:56,200
Speaker 1: the doctor's office, that would have to be with an erection, right, Yeah,

202
00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:59,680
Speaker 1: you remember the little reflex hammer? Yeah, I do. What

203
00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:04,680
Speaker 1: does that to do this? That's how they did it, alright.

204
00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:06,080
Speaker 1: So I guess back in the day, you would go

205
00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:08,000
Speaker 1: to your doctor and get an direction, and he would

206
00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:12,320
Speaker 1: fit you with a condom right made from vulcanized rubber,

207
00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:17,200
Speaker 1: probably a bit of a uh investment at this time

208
00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:19,800
Speaker 1: as a man, so I doubt if a lot of

209
00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:23,560
Speaker 1: people were wearing him. Still, so again, imagine this is

210
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,800
Speaker 1: what I imagine. It basically probably looked a lot like um,

211
00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:31,440
Speaker 1: a the nipple of a baby bottle. Yeah, sure, you know.

212
00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:34,840
Speaker 1: I'll bet you there's somebody who collects old time e condoms,

213
00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:37,160
Speaker 1: some rich dude who has like an old time e

214
00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:41,160
Speaker 1: condom collection. Yeah, of course, Um, there's someone who collects

215
00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:46,319
Speaker 1: everything old you know. Uh. So by apparently people were

216
00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:48,640
Speaker 1: using this. This is eighty nine when charls could you

217
00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:50,880
Speaker 1: come with volcanization? So we're talking like the mid to

218
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:54,679
Speaker 1: late nineteenth century. People are using these rubber condoms from

219
00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:58,960
Speaker 1: usible rubber condoms, and then everybody patted on the back

220
00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:04,560
Speaker 1: a guy named at Killian Killian's red beer inventor. Maybe no,

221
00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:10,040
Speaker 1: it's possible. Um. He's more famously known, however, for um

222
00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:15,000
Speaker 1: creating a process of making condoms directly from latex, which

223
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:18,000
Speaker 1: again is the sap of the rubber tree found in Brazil,

224
00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:22,800
Speaker 1: West Africa, now Southeast Asia. Now UM. And he would

225
00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:26,040
Speaker 1: take these glass molds that where you could argue ballack

226
00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:31,200
Speaker 1: in nature, you know, uh, and that he would dip

227
00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:34,200
Speaker 1: it directly into latex. I think he did it with

228
00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:37,960
Speaker 1: his hand like that. I'm just just initially he did.

229
00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:44,360
Speaker 1: So he would dip these these molds or um forms

230
00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:49,800
Speaker 1: right what they're called formers, just into latex and uh

231
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:53,040
Speaker 1: he would then vulcanize that, and what you had was

232
00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:59,560
Speaker 1: a thinner, stronger, UM better I guess condom. Yeah, thinner

233
00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:02,400
Speaker 1: and longer, which is like that's what you want out

234
00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:05,200
Speaker 1: of a condom because you want to have the sensation intact,

235
00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:07,720
Speaker 1: but you want to be safe and also had a

236
00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:11,880
Speaker 1: longer shelf life, and all of a sudden, latex was

237
00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:15,960
Speaker 1: the way to go. Yeah, No, it's all condoms worldwide

238
00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:20,280
Speaker 1: are latex. And that's a lot of condoms, as we'll see. Yeah,

239
00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:24,240
Speaker 1: it's some numbers. Should we should we talk about nicknames

240
00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:25,960
Speaker 1: or not? This seems a little silly to me. I

241
00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:28,240
Speaker 1: thought it was silly too. Let's skip it then, Okay,

242
00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:31,920
Speaker 1: maybe we should just drop them in occasionally. Okay, you know,

243
00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:34,680
Speaker 1: so people know because it's in here, so it's legit,

244
00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:39,120
Speaker 1: right instead of condoms, will say jimmy hat. Okay, further

245
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:44,680
Speaker 1: chilly and came up with the latex Jimmy hat. Right. Uh,

246
00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:46,560
Speaker 1: I guess if you don't know what a condom is

247
00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:49,160
Speaker 1: at all, we should go ahead and say it is

248
00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:53,040
Speaker 1: h a tube. It's a bag like tube that the

249
00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:56,840
Speaker 1: male penis fits in, open on one end, obviously, and

250
00:14:57,320 --> 00:15:00,280
Speaker 1: closed on the other. There's a little reservoir tip to

251
00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:07,360
Speaker 1: collect the semen um supposedly, and um, it's got a

252
00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:12,160
Speaker 1: little uh ring around the open end, a thin rim

253
00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:16,040
Speaker 1: that you uh that you roll down upon the penis.

254
00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:20,200
Speaker 1: And that is a condom and it it basically it

255
00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:23,440
Speaker 1: blocks fluids from touching each other, which is how you

256
00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:26,200
Speaker 1: get pregnant and how you get disease. Keeps all those

257
00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:30,000
Speaker 1: fluids separate right the the form of this. The basic

258
00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:33,600
Speaker 1: concept of the condom hasn't changed much over the eons,

259
00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:37,080
Speaker 1: but just these little advances and technology like making them latex.

260
00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:39,800
Speaker 1: Late tex is not porous, yes, Um, the only way

261
00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:41,880
Speaker 1: something's going to get through is if there's some sort

262
00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:44,920
Speaker 1: of damage to it or something like that. Um, the

263
00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:49,000
Speaker 1: condoms the same what you just described as generally been

264
00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:51,600
Speaker 1: in use for hundreds or thousands of years. Right, yeah,

265
00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:55,120
Speaker 1: it's a barrier method. Um. These days there are I

266
00:15:55,160 --> 00:15:57,840
Speaker 1: don't think we should talk about all those standards because

267
00:15:57,960 --> 00:15:59,800
Speaker 1: my eyes started to water a little bit when I

268
00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:01,640
Speaker 1: was eating all those with the length, the width, and

269
00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:03,680
Speaker 1: the thickness. No, no no, we should talk about that. But

270
00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:05,840
Speaker 1: later on all the standards when it was just like

271
00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:12,200
Speaker 1: really international codes. There are international codes governing how they're made. Well,

272
00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:14,200
Speaker 1: which is good. I'm not knocking that, sure, it's just

273
00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:17,280
Speaker 1: not exciting. Um. So yeah, these days, the length they

274
00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:20,720
Speaker 1: are at least six point three inches hundred and sixty millimeters.

275
00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:25,840
Speaker 1: Well you did the conversion. Well I think you kind

276
00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:27,440
Speaker 1: of have to say an inches, don't you. But have

277
00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:31,440
Speaker 1: you noticed that how stuff works? Articles have gone metric? Yeah,

278
00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:34,440
Speaker 1: now it's metric. The meat one, the live ground meat

279
00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:39,000
Speaker 1: one both in in metric. All right, well, I don't

280
00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:40,880
Speaker 1: know what to say about that. What about the width?

281
00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:43,360
Speaker 1: What is the width of econom win lead flat fifty

282
00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:46,040
Speaker 1: two millimeters which I did not convert to inches. The

283
00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:51,400
Speaker 1: thickness is point zero seven millimeters. That's that's very thin, which,

284
00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:53,240
Speaker 1: like we said, that's what you want out of a condom.

285
00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:56,520
Speaker 1: You want something strong, but you don't want to ruin

286
00:16:56,560 --> 00:17:02,560
Speaker 1: the sexual experience by wearing a rubber glove of you

287
00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:06,959
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, rubber glove to just and keep

288
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:09,919
Speaker 1: the rubber gloves on your hands, that's right. They powder

289
00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:12,639
Speaker 1: these things with things like silica and corn starch and

290
00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:16,760
Speaker 1: magnesium carbonate to keep the latex from sticking to itself

291
00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:21,000
Speaker 1: in packaging, or they can come loobed up with either

292
00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:26,600
Speaker 1: regular lube or made from silicone, or spermocidal lube, which

293
00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:31,320
Speaker 1: this is good to know now that I'm married, but

294
00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:33,800
Speaker 1: I was shown it on this back then. Apparently the

295
00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:38,880
Speaker 1: spermocidal lubricants can make things worse, specifically non oxid all nine. Yeah.

296
00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:41,960
Speaker 1: It says that they found that when used with a condom,

297
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:45,679
Speaker 1: it doesn't really do much to kill sperm, and even worse,

298
00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:50,360
Speaker 1: it can cause vaginal irritation, which can lead to easier

299
00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:54,640
Speaker 1: disease transmission. Yeah, so that's apparently not a good thing

300
00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:57,439
Speaker 1: to use non oxid all nine on your condoms. Very

301
00:17:57,480 --> 00:17:59,880
Speaker 1: good to know. And that's not knocking in nine because

302
00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:03,280
Speaker 1: think that's what's also you used outside of a condom, right,

303
00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:06,639
Speaker 1: as as supermocidal. Right, so it's more affective there, I guess.

304
00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:14,000
Speaker 1: How about manufacturing a condom, chuck it all. It all starts, um,

305
00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:19,240
Speaker 1: either in the forests of Brazil, Southeast Asia, or West Africa,

306
00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:21,439
Speaker 1: which is where you'll find the rubber tree, which is

307
00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:24,239
Speaker 1: still to this date where latex comes from, unless it's

308
00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:27,600
Speaker 1: synthetic latex of course. But let's say you're you're going

309
00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:30,679
Speaker 1: the natural route, and um, you go to Brazil and

310
00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:35,720
Speaker 1: get you some SAP, which again sap from uh latex

311
00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:38,560
Speaker 1: or rubber tree is latex. Okay, so you get that,

312
00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:43,439
Speaker 1: you take it back to your factory, right, that's right.

313
00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:46,960
Speaker 1: Maybe in Brazil, maybe in Thailand, who knows, is that

314
00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:49,800
Speaker 1: what they make these? Okay? I think they make them

315
00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:53,040
Speaker 1: pretty close to the rubber plantations. All the pictures in

316
00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:55,639
Speaker 1: this article are in like Thailand or Brazil or whatever.

317
00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:59,080
Speaker 1: And that's where you're gonna find rubber trees. Um, well

318
00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:01,639
Speaker 1: it doesn't only pane latex. You're gonna probably have some

319
00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:06,000
Speaker 1: other ingredients in your bucket there of of sap, well, yeah,

320
00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:10,360
Speaker 1: you added along the way. Yeah, antifungal and antibacterial compounds.

321
00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:13,720
Speaker 1: You want to keep the things clean. Zincos side, which

322
00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:19,960
Speaker 1: is accelerates the vulcanization process. Uh, stabilizers like potassium laurate, UM,

323
00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:24,960
Speaker 1: sulfur maybe which is another vulcanizing agent, ammonia antiquagulant. I

324
00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:29,679
Speaker 1: didn't know that. Yeah, it keeps things from coagulating really,

325
00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:33,760
Speaker 1: and uh, other pigments and preservatives too, you know, because

326
00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:38,320
Speaker 1: you wanted to have that lovely fleshy look in strawberry flavoring.

327
00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:42,639
Speaker 1: Well we'll get to that too. Um. So these add

328
00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:45,800
Speaker 1: to the shelf life. Um. They make it harder to

329
00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:50,199
Speaker 1: break down because rubbers biodegradable naturally, and you don't want

330
00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:51,800
Speaker 1: it to break down. That's what happened the old day's

331
00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:55,040
Speaker 1: when the easies lubes, the natural rubber would just break down.

332
00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:57,240
Speaker 1: Your kind of wasn't worth much for long, right, Um

333
00:19:57,280 --> 00:19:59,400
Speaker 1: and Tracy points that this is a good reason why

334
00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:02,600
Speaker 1: you never want to throw a condom used or otherwise

335
00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:05,280
Speaker 1: in a toilet. That's not how you throw a condom away,

336
00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:08,640
Speaker 1: because it doesn't break down. It's just gonna gum things up.

337
00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:12,879
Speaker 1: It's gonna catch all the hair and toilet paper and

338
00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:15,720
Speaker 1: all that stuff and grow bigger and bigger and just

339
00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:19,480
Speaker 1: basically become this big giant condom damn in your sewer pipe.

340
00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:23,760
Speaker 1: That's right. So what do you do? Uh? You um

341
00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:27,560
Speaker 1: wrap it in tissue paper. She suggests wrap that tissue

342
00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:31,840
Speaker 1: paper in foil, put the foil in a five millimeter

343
00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:34,520
Speaker 1: thick flat garbage bag, and bury it in your yard.

344
00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:38,080
Speaker 1: That's how you properly dispose of a used condom. That's

345
00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:40,600
Speaker 1: not true, but she does recommend the tissue and the

346
00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:43,600
Speaker 1: waste basket. Yeah, just not the toilet, or if you're

347
00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:45,719
Speaker 1: in New York City, just on the street or sidewalk,

348
00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:49,560
Speaker 1: just fine, in the back of your cab. Have you

349
00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:51,520
Speaker 1: ever noticed all the condoms one, there's a lot of

350
00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:53,600
Speaker 1: them out there. It's just it's a thing. It's definitely

351
00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:55,080
Speaker 1: a thing. If you live in New York you know

352
00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:58,399
Speaker 1: about it, or you point the tiles or something. I

353
00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:00,480
Speaker 1: just don't get it, Like, are these people having sex

354
00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:04,040
Speaker 1: in the street? Throw them out the apartment. Maybe maybe

355
00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:09,240
Speaker 1: that's what they're doing. That's gross, I know. Could you

356
00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:13,240
Speaker 1: imagine walking down the sidewalk after a nice dinner. Alright,

357
00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:16,399
Speaker 1: So you've got the liquid latex goes in the vats,

358
00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:19,800
Speaker 1: and then you've got the formers, which have been around

359
00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:23,240
Speaker 1: for a while, and they are glass or ceramic molds

360
00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:26,840
Speaker 1: of a penis, and they're on a conveyor belt. Dip

361
00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:30,080
Speaker 1: it into the bat, get it, turn it and circle

362
00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:32,920
Speaker 1: to get a nice even coating and dry it out,

363
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:35,359
Speaker 1: and then maybe a second or third dip to make

364
00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:37,639
Speaker 1: sure it's sticking off right, and then it's into the

365
00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:42,760
Speaker 1: tunnel oven for vulcanization. It has all of those, um,

366
00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:45,359
Speaker 1: those the zinc oxide and the sulfur in it to

367
00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:48,240
Speaker 1: help it vulcanize, so when it's exposed to heat, it

368
00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:51,720
Speaker 1: becomes stronger, that's right, right, Um. And then after that

369
00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:54,399
Speaker 1: I found this a little unsettling, Yeah, because I just

370
00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:56,800
Speaker 1: always thought of tondos it's like untouched. It's like a

371
00:21:56,840 --> 00:21:59,280
Speaker 1: brand new newspaper, like you could deliver a baby with it,

372
00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:03,840
Speaker 1: you know. Um. But apparently after vulcanizing, the condoms are

373
00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:09,960
Speaker 1: taken off of the formers, right, Um, and they are washed. Yeah,

374
00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:12,280
Speaker 1: you're so the condom you're you're you're using has been

375
00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:14,920
Speaker 1: washed before. I just to find it odd. I guess

376
00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:18,000
Speaker 1: probably mechanically washed, right, Yeah, it says a washing machine

377
00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:21,800
Speaker 1: um and invest to remove odor, pathogens and allergen. So

378
00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:24,320
Speaker 1: it's good that they're doing this. But I agree with you.

379
00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:27,000
Speaker 1: I kind of thought it was just like you know,

380
00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:30,480
Speaker 1: it was made and packaged immediately and then it goes

381
00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:34,199
Speaker 1: on your body, right exactly, Not quite, so you you

382
00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:37,560
Speaker 1: wash it. And then there's quality testing, which is a

383
00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:41,080
Speaker 1: lot of pretty cool stuff. There's some there's some cool

384
00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:45,640
Speaker 1: quality tests. If you ask me, well, let's get into it, then, well,

385
00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:50,159
Speaker 1: there's a standard called zipping, popping, rolling, and other condom testing. Yeah,

386
00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:52,840
Speaker 1: what you're testing for is you want to prevent three

387
00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:58,080
Speaker 1: things that make a condom uh ineffective. Breaking the condom

388
00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:02,480
Speaker 1: not good, slipping off definitely not good. In leaking. None

389
00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:05,639
Speaker 1: of these are good because they are uh you know,

390
00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:08,760
Speaker 1: they're not preventing the one thing or two things that

391
00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:11,399
Speaker 1: you're trying to do, which is either pregnancy or some

392
00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:17,640
Speaker 1: sort of socially transmitted infection. Not you notice that she's

393
00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:20,440
Speaker 1: not STD anymore. It's s t I. I didn't know that.

394
00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:24,640
Speaker 1: When did that happen? Maybe she just made the change herself,

395
00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:29,160
Speaker 1: you think, No, I think I think it's I don't know,

396
00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:33,120
Speaker 1: because maybe disease doesn't quite scientifically capture all. I'm sure

397
00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:35,440
Speaker 1: that's so. Yeah, I don't know when that happened, but

398
00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:39,520
Speaker 1: I'll bet it is fairly recent. Um. So, one of

399
00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:43,200
Speaker 1: the two tests that they're really looking at is you

400
00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:44,560
Speaker 1: don't want it to break and you don't want it

401
00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:49,000
Speaker 1: to leak, right, Yeah, So they test the condom's tentile strength. Basically,

402
00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:50,760
Speaker 1: they just get a bunch of third graders in there

403
00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:53,159
Speaker 1: and blow the condoms up and see how much volume

404
00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:56,320
Speaker 1: it holds until it breaks. Right. Yeah, they're not third graders,

405
00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:57,919
Speaker 1: but that's pretty much the long and short of it.

406
00:23:57,960 --> 00:24:02,800
Speaker 1: They inflate them, they stretch them, um, they fill them

407
00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:05,680
Speaker 1: with water and hang them up. Yeah. I guess these

408
00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:09,800
Speaker 1: are the they're testing, um, either whole batches or selected

409
00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:13,880
Speaker 1: condoms from the batch. And yeah, they hold filliple water

410
00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:16,000
Speaker 1: and look at it. That's the that's the utter test.

411
00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:19,359
Speaker 1: Is that what it's called? Okay, I just made it up,

412
00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:21,000
Speaker 1: but I think it's good. I bet you that's what

413
00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:23,240
Speaker 1: they call it. On the line and they're literally look

414
00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:24,760
Speaker 1: at it or else, if they want to be slightly

415
00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:27,840
Speaker 1: more scientific, they'll roll it along like water absorbent paper

416
00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:31,400
Speaker 1: and see if there's any water um and there shouldn't

417
00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:34,359
Speaker 1: be remember again, late text condoms don't have any kind

418
00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:38,400
Speaker 1: of pores um. And then there's another leaked test, which

419
00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:41,040
Speaker 1: is a lot more scientific or at least it's probably

420
00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:45,000
Speaker 1: fun or to do. I wonder how many factories use

421
00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:48,080
Speaker 1: this method, if it's such a supermodern or or what

422
00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:50,639
Speaker 1: and it's suchis factories soon this there's also like third

423
00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:54,560
Speaker 1: party companies that like make their money by testing condoms

424
00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:58,200
Speaker 1: for factories or maybe as watch dog groups. That's true.

425
00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:00,560
Speaker 1: So how does the electricity work? So there's a couple

426
00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:03,320
Speaker 1: of different ones. There's one where they take condoms and

427
00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:08,359
Speaker 1: they they they put them atop metal rods that have

428
00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:12,600
Speaker 1: been dipped in conductive solution. Then they run a current

429
00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:17,399
Speaker 1: through these metal rods and the the condoms being rubber,

430
00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:22,119
Speaker 1: shouldn't be conductive. But if there's holes or tears or anything,

431
00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:24,000
Speaker 1: and I'm like, the current will run through the condom

432
00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:27,320
Speaker 1: and then they have a computer watch to see, you know,

433
00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:31,280
Speaker 1: if any had a current run through them. Then the

434
00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:34,840
Speaker 1: other one is where they turn the voltage up. Yeah,

435
00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:37,639
Speaker 1: this is a dry test, um, and they basically like

436
00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:41,160
Speaker 1: run a current again through a bunch of condoms and

437
00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:43,800
Speaker 1: if there's any holes or whatever, those condoms will like

438
00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:50,200
Speaker 1: burn or melt stinks. Yeah, burn rubbers doesn't smell good. Um.

439
00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:52,679
Speaker 1: So those are the main ways that they will test

440
00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:54,919
Speaker 1: condoms to make sure that you're all good to go

441
00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:59,879
Speaker 1: when it's go time. You know what I'm saying. Uh. Slippets, however,

442
00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:03,639
Speaker 1: something they cannot test for because slippage, my friend, is

443
00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:08,879
Speaker 1: up to you how you properly or improperly used the condom.

444
00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:12,280
Speaker 1: Slippage is user error. Yeah, and I'm ashamed to say that.

445
00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:15,159
Speaker 1: And we're about to go over the tin steps and

446
00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:18,600
Speaker 1: how to properly use a condom. I didn't know about

447
00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:22,600
Speaker 1: one of them, the circumcised step not well, I didn't

448
00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:25,160
Speaker 1: know about that. Well it is it, Well, we'll get

449
00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:28,920
Speaker 1: to it. Um. So Tracy says, a storage is where

450
00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:31,720
Speaker 1: it starts. You got up to store it properly. So, uh,

451
00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:36,200
Speaker 1: heat and light is not good. Wallets, pockets and glove compartments.

452
00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:39,080
Speaker 1: In other words, everywhere teenage boys forced to store their

453
00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:41,840
Speaker 1: condoms is not where you should store a condom. You

454
00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:45,439
Speaker 1: know it's all bad. You want to keep it in

455
00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:51,080
Speaker 1: a dry um just sort of room temperatures like atmosphere

456
00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:55,200
Speaker 1: and not at the roller rink. Look at number two.

457
00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:58,520
Speaker 1: You look at the package, make sure it's all you know, intact,

458
00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:01,480
Speaker 1: it's not opened and as the expiration date, you know

459
00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:04,119
Speaker 1: you're within that range. Yeah, and when you do open it,

460
00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:06,880
Speaker 1: you want to open it carefully. You want to tear

461
00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:10,439
Speaker 1: along the one side. Sometimes it was a notch. Tracy

462
00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:11,800
Speaker 1: points out that you don't want to open it with

463
00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:15,240
Speaker 1: your teeth or pointing fingernails. Yeah, you don't want open

464
00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:17,600
Speaker 1: your teeth for a couple of reasons, but one of

465
00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:20,400
Speaker 1: them is you don't want to break it right. Um,

466
00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:22,240
Speaker 1: you want to make sure the condom is right side up.

467
00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:24,679
Speaker 1: This is the one I didn't know. I didn't know

468
00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:27,280
Speaker 1: there was the right side sure, I didn't know that.

469
00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:31,239
Speaker 1: Oh well, Um, I just forty almost forty two years old.

470
00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:32,840
Speaker 1: I had no idea that there was an up. And

471
00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:35,920
Speaker 1: I know you're talking about but there is a way

472
00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:38,880
Speaker 1: to tell um what's up and what's down. And the

473
00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:43,239
Speaker 1: tip the reservoir should be pointing up unimpeded. I had

474
00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:48,560
Speaker 1: no idea. That's the that's the top right. I'm just

475
00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:52,280
Speaker 1: learning this. So you take that reservoir right and you

476
00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:55,320
Speaker 1: um squeeze the air out of it, hold it shut,

477
00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:58,120
Speaker 1: class bit shot with your fingers and put it over

478
00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:01,320
Speaker 1: the tip of the penis. We're doing this. You realize this.

479
00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:04,840
Speaker 1: We've suddenly become a sex side podcast. Yeah, you you

480
00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:07,200
Speaker 1: missed though. If you are uncircumcised, you want to gently

481
00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:10,560
Speaker 1: pull your foreskin back to relieve the glands, which is

482
00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:13,120
Speaker 1: the tip of the penis. So you put the tip

483
00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:14,840
Speaker 1: of the put the condom over the tip of the

484
00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:17,440
Speaker 1: penis with the reservoir squeezed shut, and then you start

485
00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:23,320
Speaker 1: to unroll it. Take a chuck, just number six. Um.

486
00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:25,320
Speaker 1: She also pointed out if you don't have it right

487
00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:27,680
Speaker 1: side up, it won't unroll correctly. That's why there is

488
00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:32,800
Speaker 1: a top side and the downside, which now explains a lot. Um.

489
00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:35,119
Speaker 1: Unroll the condom down the length of the penis all

490
00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:36,359
Speaker 1: the way to the base. You gotta take it to

491
00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:41,280
Speaker 1: the base. You want it. You want full protection here. Um. Otherwise,

492
00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:44,160
Speaker 1: because if you look, if you use a condom perfectly,

493
00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:48,480
Speaker 1: then we'll find out your chances of disease and pregnancy

494
00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:51,320
Speaker 1: are virtually nil. Yeah, problems arises when you you know,

495
00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:52,720
Speaker 1: you may be not roll it all the way down

496
00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:58,720
Speaker 1: or accidentally get a testicle caught in there. Um, if

497
00:28:58,760 --> 00:29:01,760
Speaker 1: you need lube, use a water based lube. You don't

498
00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:06,400
Speaker 1: want to make the mistake of using like vaseline. I

499
00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:09,640
Speaker 1: guess I should say petroleum jelly or baby oil or

500
00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:12,960
Speaker 1: lotions or anything like that, anything that could. Yeah, that's

501
00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:15,440
Speaker 1: all oil based, and that's gonna not do you any

502
00:29:15,440 --> 00:29:19,040
Speaker 1: favors in the reliability department. Right, you want it to

503
00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:22,360
Speaker 1: be water based lubricant, that's right. But she also points

504
00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:28,560
Speaker 1: out that you using extra lubricant is effective in preventing

505
00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:33,440
Speaker 1: breakage during um anal penetration, but in vaginal penetration it

506
00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:37,600
Speaker 1: can actually increase the likelihood of breakage of the condom.

507
00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:39,400
Speaker 1: I did not know that. I did not know that either.

508
00:29:39,600 --> 00:29:42,640
Speaker 1: So we're learning right along with you people. Yeah, I'm

509
00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:45,320
Speaker 1: so glad to want to you sees anymore? Being married

510
00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:50,600
Speaker 1: is great. Uh so after the male ejaculates, this is

511
00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:56,960
Speaker 1: post coital ejaculation, you hope. Yeah, that's true. Um, you

512
00:29:57,000 --> 00:29:58,840
Speaker 1: want to hold the rim of the condom to keep

513
00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:03,120
Speaker 1: it from slipping off when you um, exit the vagina

514
00:30:03,280 --> 00:30:08,240
Speaker 1: and withdraw the penis. Uh. And and before the erection

515
00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:11,960
Speaker 1: is lost. You don't want to have the condom on

516
00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:18,479
Speaker 1: lose your erection while you're still in mid penetration. Uh.

517
00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:21,440
Speaker 1: And then you want to run outdoors to begin the

518
00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:24,440
Speaker 1: disposal process, which as we sat into the yard, right,

519
00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:27,360
Speaker 1: that's right, remove the condom, wrap it in a tissue,

520
00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:29,880
Speaker 1: put it in a garbage can, and don't reuse it.

521
00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:32,320
Speaker 1: No matter what your friend says, don't reuse it, and

522
00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:35,080
Speaker 1: don't wear two of them. Yeah, a lot of people

523
00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:41,560
Speaker 1: have latex allergies. Late condoms are latex, So some people say, well,

524
00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:45,040
Speaker 1: late text works the best. I'll just use um a

525
00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:49,040
Speaker 1: sheep skin membrane condom over my penis and then put

526
00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:52,080
Speaker 1: a late text one over that. Apparently that is basically

527
00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:55,000
Speaker 1: just really upping the risk of breakage of both. Yeah.

528
00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:57,560
Speaker 1: Or if you think you know two is better than one,

529
00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:01,320
Speaker 1: I don't know where this person and has been. That's

530
00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:04,040
Speaker 1: just not smart. You should probably not be with that person.

531
00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:07,200
Speaker 1: If you're thinking about were two condoms, just walk away

532
00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:09,800
Speaker 1: from the bowling alley and go home or the roller

533
00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:13,760
Speaker 1: rink again. Uh. And Tracy also points out for our

534
00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:17,880
Speaker 1: younger listeners. Condoms break more often if they're blown up

535
00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:21,320
Speaker 1: or filled with water before use, So don't use it

536
00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:24,640
Speaker 1: as a toy and then use it as a you know,

537
00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:29,480
Speaker 1: disease preventer, right and if it breaks, stop what you're doing,

538
00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:33,480
Speaker 1: get a new one. Yeah. Yeah, that's a that's a

539
00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:35,320
Speaker 1: big one, because you don't want to be like, oh

540
00:31:35,320 --> 00:31:38,680
Speaker 1: well I went through the first couple of steps doing it,

541
00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:41,600
Speaker 1: it was fine. Yeah. Yeah. And you know, if you're

542
00:31:41,760 --> 00:31:44,360
Speaker 1: serious about this, then what you're trying to do is

543
00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:47,680
Speaker 1: prevent pregnancy or infection. You're gonna want to replace it

544
00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:49,960
Speaker 1: like it's worth if you used it in the first place,

545
00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:52,280
Speaker 1: then you might as well stop for a second and

546
00:31:52,560 --> 00:31:55,160
Speaker 1: another one. All right, Um, don't be a jerk. I

547
00:31:55,160 --> 00:31:58,320
Speaker 1: guess that's what you're saying. You're trying to prevent, like

548
00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:01,720
Speaker 1: you said, pregnancy, most people are when they use condoms

549
00:32:02,440 --> 00:32:06,400
Speaker 1: or um, more than thirty types of viruses or bacterial

550
00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:11,720
Speaker 1: infections or parasites. Right. Yeah, sex is dirty business. It

551
00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:14,360
Speaker 1: certainly can be. I think this proves that, um, there

552
00:32:14,400 --> 00:32:20,400
Speaker 1: is a god. All right, So you know, all those

553
00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:22,640
Speaker 1: diseases in bacteria for the most part, do we need

554
00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:28,200
Speaker 1: to go over those sure, chlamydia, uh, genital herpes, genital warts, gnarrhea,

555
00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:36,880
Speaker 1: hepatitis B, HIV of course, pubic lice, um, syphilis, trick omniasis. Yeah,

556
00:32:37,320 --> 00:32:41,160
Speaker 1: yeast infections, these and many more can all be yours

557
00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:44,000
Speaker 1: if you don't use a condom and you sleep with

558
00:32:44,040 --> 00:32:47,520
Speaker 1: somebody who has any of them. Yes, and genital warts

559
00:32:47,640 --> 00:32:50,240
Speaker 1: and herpes and pubic lice and a few other s.

560
00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:52,320
Speaker 1: T i s can still be yours even if you

561
00:32:52,360 --> 00:32:55,160
Speaker 1: do use a condom, because they are not passed through

562
00:32:55,200 --> 00:32:58,600
Speaker 1: the fluids. They are passed through skin and hair and

563
00:32:58,760 --> 00:33:02,560
Speaker 1: other stuff down there in that area. Yeah. Um, so chuck,

564
00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:08,920
Speaker 1: how effective our condoms, like you said, when when you

565
00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:12,880
Speaker 1: use them correctly, they work, like they've been proven to work.

566
00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:19,600
Speaker 1: Like we have come to the pinnacle of mail um

567
00:33:19,760 --> 00:33:24,080
Speaker 1: prophylaxis with the latex condom, Like it totally works. If

568
00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:25,960
Speaker 1: you use it correctly and you use it every time,

569
00:33:26,320 --> 00:33:28,880
Speaker 1: you're going to be fine. Uh. And they know this

570
00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:36,120
Speaker 1: by um by doing studies of specifically seroh discordant um couples,

571
00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:40,200
Speaker 1: which means one couple as HIV and one person in

572
00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:44,080
Speaker 1: the couple of HIV the other partner doesn't, And they

573
00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:46,640
Speaker 1: found that people who used the condom correctly every time

574
00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:50,400
Speaker 1: they had sex had pretty much a nil chance or

575
00:33:50,480 --> 00:33:55,480
Speaker 1: z chance of UM contracting HIV by the end of

576
00:33:55,520 --> 00:33:58,640
Speaker 1: this study. Yeah, that's a two year period of these couples,

577
00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:00,520
Speaker 1: so that there's you know, a lot of sex going on.

578
00:34:00,560 --> 00:34:02,480
Speaker 1: It wasn't just like, hey, you had sex one time

579
00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:04,880
Speaker 1: and you didn't get HIV. That's great, right, So good

580
00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:10,600
Speaker 1: good study from UNAIDS or un AIDS, which that makes sense, UNAIDS,

581
00:34:10,680 --> 00:34:13,440
Speaker 1: like they're fighting AIDS, they should be called UNAIDS. Is

582
00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:16,960
Speaker 1: this United Nation though? Um? And they found though that

583
00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:20,080
Speaker 1: couples that that didn't use them all the time, just

584
00:34:20,200 --> 00:34:23,160
Speaker 1: kind of here they're had a fourteen to twenty one

585
00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:27,000
Speaker 1: percent chance of UM contracting HIV during the study. Yeah,

586
00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:30,919
Speaker 1: and pregnancy prevention is pretty similar UM over the course

587
00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:32,239
Speaker 1: of the year. And of course I don't see any

588
00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:35,000
Speaker 1: ages or anything like that here. It just says a woman,

589
00:34:35,640 --> 00:34:37,600
Speaker 1: but a woman using a condom of the course of

590
00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:40,319
Speaker 1: the year, who uses it perfectly for every act of

591
00:34:40,360 --> 00:34:43,120
Speaker 1: sexual intercourse with a man has only a three percent

592
00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:49,839
Speaker 1: chance of becoming pregnant, So ninety seven effective. That's pretty good. Sure, Um,

593
00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:54,439
Speaker 1: if you use a condom typically which is apparently not

594
00:34:54,760 --> 00:34:58,759
Speaker 1: that great, not that well. Um, and you're a woman,

595
00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:02,759
Speaker 1: you have twelve percent chance of an unplanned pregnancy. But

596
00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:06,600
Speaker 1: both of those beat not using anything at all, which

597
00:35:06,640 --> 00:35:09,080
Speaker 1: leads to an eight percent chance of getting pregnant over

598
00:35:09,080 --> 00:35:12,080
Speaker 1: the course of a year just by having sex. And

599
00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:15,120
Speaker 1: it doesn't say how many men or anything like that

600
00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:20,440
Speaker 1: many trips to the roller rink this entails, so what

601
00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:23,200
Speaker 1: year is it? So there's st a lot of roller

602
00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:25,560
Speaker 1: rink sex going on. What got me started was the

603
00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:28,600
Speaker 1: idea of like a condom like in your pocket, remember

604
00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:31,080
Speaker 1: the condom ring in the genes or in your wallet

605
00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:34,680
Speaker 1: or whatever. Just associate that with the roller rink and

606
00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:38,520
Speaker 1: like kids with like half mustaches and like mullets and

607
00:35:38,520 --> 00:35:41,640
Speaker 1: stuff like that. So that's that's where the roller rink

608
00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:45,879
Speaker 1: reference came from. All right. So, um, some folks say that,

609
00:35:45,920 --> 00:35:49,040
Speaker 1: you know what, if you make condoms available to my teenager,

610
00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:53,320
Speaker 1: it's gonna encourage them to have sex. Um. Studies suggest

611
00:35:53,400 --> 00:35:56,280
Speaker 1: that is not the case. Um. This one study observed

612
00:35:56,840 --> 00:36:00,600
Speaker 1: over four thousand teenagers over an eight year period, which

613
00:36:00,640 --> 00:36:03,040
Speaker 1: is a pretty good study if you ask me. By

614
00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:06,080
Speaker 1: the end of the study, all of the participants were

615
00:36:06,080 --> 00:36:10,040
Speaker 1: sexually active, and the teenagers who use condoms during their

616
00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:13,399
Speaker 1: first sexual encounter were not more likely to have more

617
00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:17,279
Speaker 1: partners than those who did not, but the condom using

618
00:36:17,320 --> 00:36:20,960
Speaker 1: teams were less likely to have been diagnosed with connoete

619
00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:24,600
Speaker 1: or chlamydia. So this study at least points out that

620
00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:27,880
Speaker 1: it's not gonna encourage promiscuity, but it will keep you

621
00:36:28,120 --> 00:36:32,719
Speaker 1: from getting pregnant in disease. I think, um, being in

622
00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:37,080
Speaker 1: your teens encourages promiscuity. Yeah, you know, And that's kind

623
00:36:37,120 --> 00:36:39,440
Speaker 1: of the whole argument. It's like, are they going to

624
00:36:39,520 --> 00:36:41,520
Speaker 1: do it anyway? And if they are, then make sure

625
00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:44,360
Speaker 1: they have plenty of condoms. And other people say, well, no,

626
00:36:44,440 --> 00:36:46,880
Speaker 1: they're not gonna do it anyway, they just need to abstain,

627
00:36:46,960 --> 00:36:50,759
Speaker 1: and condoms are like the devil's temptation. I'm ready for

628
00:36:50,760 --> 00:36:54,840
Speaker 1: for humanity to evolve more in that realm. Like it

629
00:36:54,920 --> 00:36:57,640
Speaker 1: made sense for for eighteen year old males to be

630
00:36:57,680 --> 00:37:01,719
Speaker 1: at like their peak of sexual prowess and girls being

631
00:37:01,760 --> 00:37:04,160
Speaker 1: able to get pregnant when they were fourteen, you know,

632
00:37:04,320 --> 00:37:07,640
Speaker 1: three years ago, when we were living two thirty years old,

633
00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:10,799
Speaker 1: it made sense. These days, it's just like a cruel joke. Well,

634
00:37:10,800 --> 00:37:13,520
Speaker 1: you know. It's interesting is we're actually going the other direction,

635
00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:18,840
Speaker 1: like puberty coming younger and younger. A the average boy

636
00:37:18,960 --> 00:37:22,520
Speaker 1: enters puberty and I don't that this doesn't mean sexual maturation,

637
00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:25,480
Speaker 1: but begins puberty at like age seven or eight. Now

638
00:37:26,680 --> 00:37:29,520
Speaker 1: that's crazy. And see nowadays people are getting not everyone,

639
00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:32,280
Speaker 1: but people are waiting longer in general to get married

640
00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:35,080
Speaker 1: and have a family. And it's getting harder and harder,

641
00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:38,360
Speaker 1: uh for older people to get pregnant much less. The

642
00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:41,920
Speaker 1: man who was you know, starts to decline after eighteen

643
00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:45,680
Speaker 1: years old. You get married in your mid thirties, it's like, sorry,

644
00:37:45,880 --> 00:37:49,879
Speaker 1: you know, my best days were, We're wasted right well,

645
00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:52,359
Speaker 1: which is ironic because by that time you can grow

646
00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:57,799
Speaker 1: a decent mustache, I know, you know, all right, So, um,

647
00:37:57,840 --> 00:38:01,480
Speaker 1: there's this whole thing associated with condom. State are a

648
00:38:01,640 --> 00:38:05,000
Speaker 1: unique breed of product. You know, if you look at

649
00:38:05,040 --> 00:38:09,560
Speaker 1: them as a commodity, as a retail product, then they

650
00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:13,080
Speaker 1: should be the same as a candy or a toy

651
00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:16,640
Speaker 1: or you know, what have you. But something that these um,

652
00:38:16,680 --> 00:38:20,000
Speaker 1: these other products lack is what's called social marketing, which

653
00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:23,560
Speaker 1: is what makes condoms virtually unique. There is a there's

654
00:38:23,560 --> 00:38:28,799
Speaker 1: a great public interest in condoms being purchased and distributed

655
00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:33,200
Speaker 1: and easily gotten by everybody in the world, whether it's

656
00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:38,840
Speaker 1: for population control which is pretty sinister sounding, um or

657
00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:44,400
Speaker 1: through disease prevention. But governments around the world invest heavily

658
00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:48,600
Speaker 1: in condoms, and by doing that, they basically just buy

659
00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:51,160
Speaker 1: a bunch of condoms and turn around and selimented discount. Yeah,

660
00:38:51,160 --> 00:38:55,080
Speaker 1: it's called social marketing. And the ideas that if they

661
00:38:55,080 --> 00:38:57,319
Speaker 1: don't want to make them free, although you know, there

662
00:38:57,320 --> 00:38:59,840
Speaker 1: are plenty of places that give out condoms, um, but

663
00:39:00,040 --> 00:39:02,000
Speaker 1: they want to make them very cheap for those who

664
00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:04,360
Speaker 1: can't afford them, because the idea is that if you

665
00:39:04,360 --> 00:39:07,319
Speaker 1: pay for something, you're more likely to use it. Uh,

666
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:10,960
Speaker 1: sort of like the co ed model. These kids who

667
00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:13,719
Speaker 1: pay for their textbooks instead of just giving them textbooks,

668
00:39:13,960 --> 00:39:15,520
Speaker 1: the more likely to use it. So, I don't know

669
00:39:15,520 --> 00:39:17,239
Speaker 1: what I've made that connection, but it's sort of the

670
00:39:17,239 --> 00:39:20,040
Speaker 1: same thing. Well it is, it's the exact same principle you, um,

671
00:39:20,120 --> 00:39:23,400
Speaker 1: you have some sort of ownership over something you've paid for. Yeah,

672
00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:25,239
Speaker 1: and Tracy said, the rule of thumb is that a

673
00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:27,279
Speaker 1: year supply of condoms should cast no more than one

674
00:39:27,320 --> 00:39:31,480
Speaker 1: percent of the target countries per capita gross national products.

675
00:39:31,560 --> 00:39:33,759
Speaker 1: And I don't think that's just Tracy saying that either. Well,

676
00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:37,400
Speaker 1: now she didn't make that up. So um, there's uh,

677
00:39:37,719 --> 00:39:40,239
Speaker 1: the other aspect of it. There's buy part of one

678
00:39:40,280 --> 00:39:42,799
Speaker 1: part of social marketing is buying condoms and distributing them

679
00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:46,720
Speaker 1: for cheap um. And this is like federal government, national

680
00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:50,200
Speaker 1: government level stuff. Uh. And then the other side of

681
00:39:50,239 --> 00:39:54,839
Speaker 1: it is educating the public. Yeah, you got to wear them, yeah,

682
00:39:54,880 --> 00:39:56,840
Speaker 1: and you have to know how to wear them. We

683
00:39:56,880 --> 00:39:59,200
Speaker 1: could probably get some federal funding for this episode if

684
00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:01,600
Speaker 1: you ask a little kickback. You have to know how

685
00:40:01,600 --> 00:40:03,439
Speaker 1: to wear them, you have to know what they do,

686
00:40:03,600 --> 00:40:05,600
Speaker 1: you have to know why to wear why you should

687
00:40:05,600 --> 00:40:08,200
Speaker 1: wear them. Um, you should be able to explain it

688
00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:11,480
Speaker 1: in plain simple terms to anybody who who who is

689
00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:13,520
Speaker 1: riding a bus that if they don't wear a condom,

690
00:40:13,600 --> 00:40:16,080
Speaker 1: they can die, or their junk can fall off, or

691
00:40:16,080 --> 00:40:18,160
Speaker 1: there's all sorts of terrible stuff that can happen to

692
00:40:18,200 --> 00:40:21,560
Speaker 1: you if you don't wear a condom. Right, Yeah, and uh,

693
00:40:21,600 --> 00:40:24,080
Speaker 1: it's been pretty successful in countries like Thailand where they

694
00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:29,640
Speaker 1: have a big commercial sex industry. Um. In nineteen eighty

695
00:40:29,719 --> 00:40:33,120
Speaker 1: nine they started a campaign for commercial sex workers to

696
00:40:33,320 --> 00:40:38,000
Speaker 1: use condoms at the time, always use them and pretty

697
00:40:38,040 --> 00:40:42,160
Speaker 1: amazing results. UM In nineteen eighty nine, before the campaign,

698
00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:46,480
Speaker 1: fourteen percent of the sex workers had consistently used condoms.

699
00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:54,240
Speaker 1: By just five years later used condoms and uh not. Coincidentally,

700
00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:58,879
Speaker 1: UM S t I cases diagnosed among sex workers fell

701
00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:01,360
Speaker 1: from four over four or a thousand per year to

702
00:41:01,520 --> 00:41:04,800
Speaker 1: just under thirty thousand per year. That's a huge, huge

703
00:41:04,880 --> 00:41:07,680
Speaker 1: drop off. Just use the condom, that's all you gotta do.

704
00:41:07,840 --> 00:41:12,160
Speaker 1: And the rest of the world watch Thailand. Their jaws

705
00:41:12,200 --> 00:41:14,960
Speaker 1: fell open, so they started buying condoms like crazy. So

706
00:41:15,040 --> 00:41:18,839
Speaker 1: like in two thousand, for example, UM South Africa bought

707
00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:25,120
Speaker 1: two hundred and fifty million condoms to million condoms. Botswana

708
00:41:25,160 --> 00:41:28,920
Speaker 1: purchased twelve million UM four hundred and fifty million condoms

709
00:41:28,920 --> 00:41:32,200
Speaker 1: in India And these are the places where you know

710
00:41:32,600 --> 00:41:34,960
Speaker 1: they need to use condoms, like you need to use

711
00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:39,400
Speaker 1: them everywhere, but places that are have places like Africa

712
00:41:39,520 --> 00:41:44,200
Speaker 1: and in India are like in Thailand. Obviously you need

713
00:41:44,239 --> 00:41:48,239
Speaker 1: to use the condoms. Why to prevent disease and to

714
00:41:48,320 --> 00:41:51,160
Speaker 1: prevent pregnancy, right, but what I mean you you would

715
00:41:51,160 --> 00:41:53,560
Speaker 1: want to do that anyway? Well, that's what I said.

716
00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:57,719
Speaker 1: But places that are overpopulated and people are dying because

717
00:41:57,719 --> 00:42:01,600
Speaker 1: they're starving, and where diseases ram in villages, it's a

718
00:42:01,600 --> 00:42:04,920
Speaker 1: little more important than other places that would say. I

719
00:42:04,960 --> 00:42:07,240
Speaker 1: think it's probably kind of a controversial statement though among

720
00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:11,040
Speaker 1: people who don't feel like you should be using condoms.

721
00:42:11,080 --> 00:42:16,840
Speaker 1: You know that that's government carrying out population control? H

722
00:42:18,640 --> 00:42:21,759
Speaker 1: Is it? I don't know, I don't know. I think

723
00:42:22,160 --> 00:42:24,640
Speaker 1: on its face, yeah, it definitely is. The government's very

724
00:42:24,680 --> 00:42:28,200
Speaker 1: interested in, like not having a starving population. In one

725
00:42:28,200 --> 00:42:31,279
Speaker 1: way to do it's a control population. But is that

726
00:42:31,360 --> 00:42:34,280
Speaker 1: a bad thing? Like? Do you if people are willing

727
00:42:34,320 --> 00:42:37,960
Speaker 1: to use condoms when they have them handy, um, then

728
00:42:38,239 --> 00:42:40,799
Speaker 1: you know, why wouldn't you want to provide that to them. Yeah,

729
00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:43,239
Speaker 1: it's not a bad thing. I'll go defend that until

730
00:42:43,280 --> 00:42:49,120
Speaker 1: my dying breath. Um. So this is um, this is

731
00:42:49,160 --> 00:42:51,200
Speaker 1: a ton of condoms we're talking about. That was just

732
00:42:51,239 --> 00:42:55,479
Speaker 1: two thousand, right, many tons of condoms. Right. Apparently the

733
00:42:55,560 --> 00:43:00,600
Speaker 1: condom industry, which is just loving this social marketing stuff, um,

734
00:43:00,719 --> 00:43:04,520
Speaker 1: is producing between eight and twelve billion condoms of a year. Right.

735
00:43:05,520 --> 00:43:10,680
Speaker 1: Apparently we would need fifteen billion to effectively cover everybody

736
00:43:10,800 --> 00:43:14,840
Speaker 1: for a year. Yeah, every everybody is sexually active, you

737
00:43:14,880 --> 00:43:18,640
Speaker 1: would need fifteen billion condoms, so they're close, but not

738
00:43:18,680 --> 00:43:24,160
Speaker 1: close enough. Right. That means everybody in the world does

739
00:43:24,160 --> 00:43:29,279
Speaker 1: it more than twice a year, because there's like six

740
00:43:29,320 --> 00:43:32,160
Speaker 1: billion people on the planet. Right. Uh well yeah, I

741
00:43:32,200 --> 00:43:33,759
Speaker 1: mean if you want to average out like that, right,

742
00:43:33,920 --> 00:43:35,360
Speaker 1: I think a lot of people aren't. A lot of

743
00:43:35,360 --> 00:43:37,120
Speaker 1: people are doing it more, right, but sure if you

744
00:43:37,120 --> 00:43:39,839
Speaker 1: want to throw an average on it. Um. The thing

745
00:43:39,960 --> 00:43:42,719
Speaker 1: is is that so we're we're short of condoms, which

746
00:43:42,760 --> 00:43:45,400
Speaker 1: is mind boggling. There's only sixty factories on the planet

747
00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:47,719
Speaker 1: making condoms for the whole world, So when you look

748
00:43:47,760 --> 00:43:50,359
Speaker 1: at it like that, it's pretty impressive. But apparently the

749
00:43:50,480 --> 00:43:54,520
Speaker 1: condom industry is stepping up the call and by is

750
00:43:54,560 --> 00:44:00,440
Speaker 1: projected to have to produce twenty five billion condoms. Uh. First,

751
00:44:00,680 --> 00:44:03,800
Speaker 1: that's a six billion dollar industry. That's good, But what's crazy,

752
00:44:03,840 --> 00:44:06,520
Speaker 1: that's a six billion dollar industry. Los Angeles County from

753
00:44:06,560 --> 00:44:11,240
Speaker 1: porn makes one six of the equivalent of the entire

754
00:44:11,480 --> 00:44:15,360
Speaker 1: condom industries. Money in porn in just porn, yea, in

755
00:44:15,440 --> 00:44:18,880
Speaker 1: just that one county. Yeah, see how everything is connected?

756
00:44:19,760 --> 00:44:23,560
Speaker 1: I do uh. So here in the United States, the

757
00:44:23,680 --> 00:44:28,440
Speaker 1: f d A controls something called good manufacturing practices UH

758
00:44:28,880 --> 00:44:33,160
Speaker 1: rules and standards for making drugs and things like condoms.

759
00:44:33,200 --> 00:44:37,160
Speaker 1: So the f d A is IS has standards. There

760
00:44:37,160 --> 00:44:42,960
Speaker 1: are also international standards. The International Organization for Standardization UM.

761
00:44:43,040 --> 00:44:45,520
Speaker 1: They have their own standards that cover these medical devices,

762
00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:48,880
Speaker 1: and they have silly numbers attached to them, but that

763
00:44:48,920 --> 00:44:51,640
Speaker 1: really means nothing to anyone, does it. Well? In case

764
00:44:51,680 --> 00:44:54,160
Speaker 1: you ever wanted to know, I s O four oh

765
00:44:54,160 --> 00:44:58,439
Speaker 1: seven four Colon two zero zero two is the international

766
00:44:58,520 --> 00:45:03,279
Speaker 1: standard for condom manufacture and distribution. That's right. And we're

767
00:45:03,280 --> 00:45:08,640
Speaker 1: talking about standards. We're talking about acceptable levels of condoms

768
00:45:08,640 --> 00:45:13,120
Speaker 1: that are defective per batch UM credit. I would imagine

769
00:45:13,120 --> 00:45:17,399
Speaker 1: the average consumers like zero. That'd be nice UM accreditation

770
00:45:17,480 --> 00:45:22,759
Speaker 1: for labs that test these procedures material shelf life stability,

771
00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:26,200
Speaker 1: they're just making sure all that is up to snuff UM.

772
00:45:26,280 --> 00:45:29,760
Speaker 1: And again, as we said there, the the standards are

773
00:45:29,800 --> 00:45:33,600
Speaker 1: in this manual called zapping, popping, rolling, and other condom

774
00:45:33,640 --> 00:45:39,920
Speaker 1: testing tools that very repeating UM condoms used to be.

775
00:45:40,600 --> 00:45:42,800
Speaker 1: They're a little more acceptable to buy these days. Shouldn't

776
00:45:42,800 --> 00:45:45,920
Speaker 1: be embarrassed to walk into your grocery store by condoms,

777
00:45:46,320 --> 00:45:49,200
Speaker 1: said the forty one year old. Exactly, But it's not

778
00:45:49,239 --> 00:45:51,080
Speaker 1: that way for everyone. It's not that way for every

779
00:45:51,080 --> 00:45:55,720
Speaker 1: group because they are taboo. UM. In some religions UM.

780
00:45:55,880 --> 00:46:01,239
Speaker 1: Catholicism UH famously does not allow the use of contraception.

781
00:46:02,040 --> 00:46:06,239
Speaker 1: Orthodox Judaism apparently Islam does allow it if you are

782
00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:14,440
Speaker 1: married heterosexuals, hed heterosexuals, and you have reason to prevent pregnancy,

783
00:46:14,960 --> 00:46:20,600
Speaker 1: and then UM. Conservative Christian groups have long promoted abstinence

784
00:46:20,680 --> 00:46:23,680
Speaker 1: rather than the use of condoms, and sometimes even fought

785
00:46:24,320 --> 00:46:28,440
Speaker 1: the education and distribution of condoms for reasons we said earlier,

786
00:46:28,480 --> 00:46:31,480
Speaker 1: like they think it makes their children promiscuous and they

787
00:46:31,520 --> 00:46:34,720
Speaker 1: will want to have sex because they now have this condom.

788
00:46:34,840 --> 00:46:37,040
Speaker 1: That is the key to them wanting to have sex.

789
00:46:37,520 --> 00:46:41,719
Speaker 1: And it's not to the government to carry out population

790
00:46:41,760 --> 00:46:48,440
Speaker 1: control exactly. UM. In Nevada has been mandatory to use

791
00:46:48,480 --> 00:46:52,719
Speaker 1: condoms if you are in a brothel, so highly regulated

792
00:46:52,840 --> 00:46:56,840
Speaker 1: UM sex industry there, Nevada, Nevada, Nevada. Excuse me, So

793
00:46:57,040 --> 00:47:01,839
Speaker 1: Josh who uses condoms? Uh, everybody who can get their

794
00:47:01,880 --> 00:47:05,200
Speaker 1: hands on them apparently uses condoms. UM. The u N

795
00:47:05,320 --> 00:47:09,400
Speaker 1: says that two thirds of the world has ready and

796
00:47:09,480 --> 00:47:13,080
Speaker 1: available access, ready and easy access to condoms. Right, and

797
00:47:13,120 --> 00:47:16,600
Speaker 1: they actually created a definition. I'd love the u N

798
00:47:16,680 --> 00:47:19,400
Speaker 1: You know, ready and easy access to condoms mean you

799
00:47:20,040 --> 00:47:23,600
Speaker 1: have to spend less than two hours a month buying condoms.

800
00:47:24,080 --> 00:47:26,640
Speaker 1: So I guess like taking a bus into town or

801
00:47:26,680 --> 00:47:28,399
Speaker 1: something like that. Yeah, if you live in the middle

802
00:47:28,440 --> 00:47:30,799
Speaker 1: of nowhere Africa, it might take a while to get

803
00:47:30,800 --> 00:47:34,120
Speaker 1: a condom. So this distribution net of condoms needs to

804
00:47:34,160 --> 00:47:40,760
Speaker 1: be pretty uh, pretty wide, pretty um woven, well woven. Yeah,

805
00:47:41,160 --> 00:47:45,439
Speaker 1: and then um, you also don't want to pay more

806
00:47:45,480 --> 00:47:48,480
Speaker 1: than one percent of a person's monthly take home pay

807
00:47:48,520 --> 00:47:51,799
Speaker 1: wherever they live. That's right. So when the un IS

808
00:47:51,880 --> 00:47:55,040
Speaker 1: in the world is trying to distribute these and make

809
00:47:55,080 --> 00:47:58,120
Speaker 1: them available, those are the criteria they look for as

810
00:47:58,160 --> 00:48:00,520
Speaker 1: far as like what they're going to charge people maybe

811
00:48:00,520 --> 00:48:04,000
Speaker 1: in one of these less developed countries, right, Um, and

812
00:48:04,040 --> 00:48:07,480
Speaker 1: they we found that because of efforts like this, condom

813
00:48:07,560 --> 00:48:14,480
Speaker 1: use around the world has increased. Apparently, prior to the eighties, Um,

814
00:48:14,480 --> 00:48:17,760
Speaker 1: evaluations of condom usage has just been like married couples.

815
00:48:18,640 --> 00:48:22,600
Speaker 1: I don't understand why. Um, apparently things were there was

816
00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:26,560
Speaker 1: maybe tawdry or something. Who knows, but UM. The Brits

817
00:48:26,600 --> 00:48:29,440
Speaker 1: went ahead and did a survey in nineteen fifty and

818
00:48:29,520 --> 00:48:34,000
Speaker 1: found that UM for their first sexual encounter of men

819
00:48:34,000 --> 00:48:40,439
Speaker 1: and women used a condom by about sixty did. Right,

820
00:48:40,800 --> 00:48:45,320
Speaker 1: so there's definite increasing condoms condom usage. UM. They found

821
00:48:45,320 --> 00:48:50,879
Speaker 1: that people who live with their partners typically use condoms less. UM,

822
00:48:51,040 --> 00:48:53,800
Speaker 1: people who makes the older you are, the less you

823
00:48:53,840 --> 00:48:56,800
Speaker 1: would be, the less likely you would be to use condoms,

824
00:48:57,120 --> 00:48:59,800
Speaker 1: probably again because you're in a long term monogamous for

825
00:48:59,880 --> 00:49:03,360
Speaker 1: like and ship right Uh and then um, people with

826
00:49:03,440 --> 00:49:08,279
Speaker 1: latex allergies tend to not use condoms. Yeah. And these

827
00:49:08,320 --> 00:49:11,680
Speaker 1: were studies from Europe mainly, but I imagine it's pretty

828
00:49:11,680 --> 00:49:14,360
Speaker 1: similar in other parts of the world. Yeah, but hearteningly

829
00:49:14,520 --> 00:49:19,200
Speaker 1: people UM in Netherlands, France, Belgium, and Britain. They found

830
00:49:19,239 --> 00:49:21,760
Speaker 1: that the more partners of person had, the more likely

831
00:49:21,800 --> 00:49:24,279
Speaker 1: they were to use condoms. To use a Jimmy hat

832
00:49:25,239 --> 00:49:28,480
Speaker 1: a French letter, French letter. I don't even know what

833
00:49:28,560 --> 00:49:31,319
Speaker 1: that one is, all right. There are female condoms UM

834
00:49:31,640 --> 00:49:37,080
Speaker 1: that are fairly new. Um. When when do they come

835
00:49:37,080 --> 00:49:42,920
Speaker 1: around Switzerland? Approved here in the United States? And and

836
00:49:43,239 --> 00:49:47,560
Speaker 1: uh it is a UM. Paul yourthane sheath sort of

837
00:49:47,560 --> 00:49:50,640
Speaker 1: like the male condom, except it's just it's got two rings,

838
00:49:51,320 --> 00:49:54,080
Speaker 1: one on either end, one a little smaller on one end,

839
00:49:54,640 --> 00:49:57,680
Speaker 1: and that it fits in the woman's vagina, and it's

840
00:49:57,680 --> 00:50:00,400
Speaker 1: sort of is just like a reverse of what the

841
00:50:00,400 --> 00:50:03,920
Speaker 1: male condom is. They some of the benefits as a

842
00:50:03,960 --> 00:50:08,440
Speaker 1: woman can put this in um beforehand, whereas a man

843
00:50:08,520 --> 00:50:11,239
Speaker 1: obviously has has to be go time, has to have

844
00:50:11,280 --> 00:50:13,920
Speaker 1: the erect penis right exactly like the woman can insert

845
00:50:13,960 --> 00:50:18,480
Speaker 1: this anytime anytime. UM. Well, I'm sure they are you know,

846
00:50:18,560 --> 00:50:23,600
Speaker 1: recommendations for how long that you use this thing as well. Um.

847
00:50:23,640 --> 00:50:26,560
Speaker 1: But it is another barrier method that protects against HIV

848
00:50:26,640 --> 00:50:32,279
Speaker 1: and pregnancy and uh yep. Because it's poly ethane, you

849
00:50:32,280 --> 00:50:36,239
Speaker 1: can use oil based lubricants y um. And also in

850
00:50:36,440 --> 00:50:41,120
Speaker 1: places where it's difficult or impossible because of social norms

851
00:50:41,160 --> 00:50:45,360
Speaker 1: for a woman to insist that the guy wear a condom. Um,

852
00:50:46,560 --> 00:50:49,680
Speaker 1: this is very useful because it's it's given control of

853
00:50:50,200 --> 00:50:54,799
Speaker 1: who uses the condom win to the woman. Um. It

854
00:50:54,920 --> 00:50:58,520
Speaker 1: is more expensive, which is one of the disadvantages and

855
00:50:58,920 --> 00:51:02,239
Speaker 1: um that could lead some people in developing nations to

856
00:51:02,400 --> 00:51:05,560
Speaker 1: wash it and reuse it, which is not recommended UM

857
00:51:05,640 --> 00:51:09,560
Speaker 1: and apparently in trials clinical trials it's slightly less effective

858
00:51:10,080 --> 00:51:13,880
Speaker 1: at preventing pregnancy and s t I S and male condoms,

859
00:51:13,920 --> 00:51:19,360
Speaker 1: but it's way, way, way better than nothing obviously. Um,

860
00:51:19,400 --> 00:51:24,000
Speaker 1: what else do we have? We have spray on condoms, Yeah,

861
00:51:24,239 --> 00:51:29,160
Speaker 1: sort of not yet there and they're still being toyed with. Apparently,

862
00:51:30,800 --> 00:51:34,279
Speaker 1: this guy named I can't remember his first name. His

863
00:51:34,360 --> 00:51:37,360
Speaker 1: last name is Krauss. He's a sex educator from Germany.

864
00:51:37,880 --> 00:51:42,120
Speaker 1: UM and he apparently had trouble finding condoms that fit

865
00:51:42,239 --> 00:51:45,759
Speaker 1: him when he was younger, a younger man. He's thirty. Now.

866
00:51:45,880 --> 00:51:48,440
Speaker 1: I get the idea that he was small. Oh, I

867
00:51:48,480 --> 00:51:51,920
Speaker 1: got the idea that the opposite idea. I don't know

868
00:51:51,960 --> 00:51:54,960
Speaker 1: because later in the article he talked about being small

869
00:51:55,080 --> 00:51:57,840
Speaker 1: and like I want to make condoms for smaller guys

870
00:51:57,920 --> 00:52:01,719
Speaker 1: because oh I missed that part. Yeah. Um, well, it's

871
00:52:01,760 --> 00:52:04,000
Speaker 1: funny new ideas to have a range of sizes, like

872
00:52:04,040 --> 00:52:07,760
Speaker 1: six sizes. The markets wide open for small conds apparently

873
00:52:07,800 --> 00:52:10,319
Speaker 1: tried and tried it a few years ago and like

874
00:52:10,520 --> 00:52:13,160
Speaker 1: this continued him almost immediately because they didn't sell any

875
00:52:13,200 --> 00:52:16,160
Speaker 1: condoms for the smaller man or something, right, Yeah, although

876
00:52:16,239 --> 00:52:19,640
Speaker 1: magnum condoms like have seventeen percent of the market share,

877
00:52:19,680 --> 00:52:23,120
Speaker 1: they're like fifteen percent bigger than normal condoms. Yeah and

878
00:52:23,120 --> 00:52:27,400
Speaker 1: and crosses. Uh. His theory is that guys that are

879
00:52:27,440 --> 00:52:29,640
Speaker 1: smaller don't want to walk into a store and buy

880
00:52:29,719 --> 00:52:33,319
Speaker 1: the small condoms, so he wants to I mean, he's

881
00:52:33,360 --> 00:52:35,279
Speaker 1: he's working on the spray on condom, but he's also

882
00:52:35,320 --> 00:52:37,640
Speaker 1: working on different sizes that I think are a little

883
00:52:37,680 --> 00:52:41,759
Speaker 1: more um. The packaging is a little less obvious, you know,

884
00:52:42,160 --> 00:52:44,359
Speaker 1: it's not like you don't walk up and by like

885
00:52:44,560 --> 00:52:48,279
Speaker 1: the teeny leaning. Well, he originally, you know, I think

886
00:52:48,280 --> 00:52:51,319
Speaker 1: he wants to make it a little more clandestine. He

887
00:52:51,400 --> 00:52:54,200
Speaker 1: originally set up this website, which is pretty cool, um,

888
00:52:54,480 --> 00:52:57,359
Speaker 1: where you can download this measuring tape that you print

889
00:52:57,400 --> 00:53:01,200
Speaker 1: out and use, and then you enter in your dimensions

890
00:53:01,200 --> 00:53:04,480
Speaker 1: in the website and it brings up all of the

891
00:53:04,520 --> 00:53:07,359
Speaker 1: condoms for sail in Germany that are likeliest to fit

892
00:53:07,400 --> 00:53:10,520
Speaker 1: you best. This is pretty cool. Yeah, but now he's

893
00:53:10,560 --> 00:53:14,600
Speaker 1: created the spray on condom. Yeah. Here's how this thing works.

894
00:53:14,760 --> 00:53:18,520
Speaker 1: You put your penis in a tube and it's sprays

895
00:53:18,920 --> 00:53:23,520
Speaker 1: from many different directions the condom latex onto your penis,

896
00:53:23,560 --> 00:53:27,640
Speaker 1: your erect penis and um, then it has to dry,

897
00:53:27,719 --> 00:53:29,680
Speaker 1: which is one of the problems that it this is

898
00:53:29,680 --> 00:53:33,080
Speaker 1: when it sprays, so some dudes are worried that that

899
00:53:33,160 --> 00:53:35,959
Speaker 1: might ruin the mood. Um, some guys were a little

900
00:53:35,960 --> 00:53:39,200
Speaker 1: worried about putting their penis in this tube period. And

901
00:53:39,239 --> 00:53:42,440
Speaker 1: then um liquid latex takes about two to three minutes

902
00:53:42,440 --> 00:53:47,120
Speaker 1: to vulcanize, and in order for people to buy these things,

903
00:53:47,160 --> 00:53:49,319
Speaker 1: he thinks it's gonna have to be ready in like

904
00:53:49,560 --> 00:53:52,839
Speaker 1: five to ten seconds. So because it's like you better

905
00:53:52,920 --> 00:53:55,840
Speaker 1: learn how to juggle or something to like keep the

906
00:53:55,920 --> 00:53:58,239
Speaker 1: interest going for those couple of minutes. Is that what

907
00:53:58,280 --> 00:54:01,399
Speaker 1: does it? Juggling? Juggling or I don't know, maybe making

908
00:54:01,440 --> 00:54:05,080
Speaker 1: an omelet. And then there are the anti rape condoms,

909
00:54:05,600 --> 00:54:09,520
Speaker 1: which are controversial to say the least. A South African

910
00:54:09,560 --> 00:54:11,799
Speaker 1: doctor came up with these and they are like the

911
00:54:11,880 --> 00:54:16,080
Speaker 1: female condom, but it's also like, um, I hate to

912
00:54:16,120 --> 00:54:17,960
Speaker 1: say it, but like the closest analogy is like a

913
00:54:18,040 --> 00:54:22,279
Speaker 1: Chinese finger trap. Yeah, like that, once the potie goes in,

914
00:54:22,440 --> 00:54:27,080
Speaker 1: there's these plastic teeth that hold it in place and

915
00:54:27,480 --> 00:54:31,880
Speaker 1: only a doctor can remove this basically giant female condom

916
00:54:31,920 --> 00:54:34,960
Speaker 1: that's now attached to your penis. And the reason she

917
00:54:35,040 --> 00:54:37,640
Speaker 1: came up with this was because rape in South Africa

918
00:54:38,239 --> 00:54:41,920
Speaker 1: is um out of control. Some survey from two thousand

919
00:54:42,040 --> 00:54:44,800
Speaker 1: nine found that one in four South African men admit

920
00:54:44,880 --> 00:54:48,080
Speaker 1: to raping a woman and that they think possibly one

921
00:54:48,120 --> 00:54:51,200
Speaker 1: point four million women are raped in South Africa every year.

922
00:54:51,239 --> 00:54:54,359
Speaker 1: That's the population of Phoenix. So this woman came up

923
00:54:54,360 --> 00:54:57,640
Speaker 1: with this. It's basically like the female condom that will

924
00:54:58,200 --> 00:55:03,200
Speaker 1: immediately inflict pain on the rapist. The woman can, I guess,

925
00:55:03,320 --> 00:55:06,719
Speaker 1: get away, but the man stuck with this on right

926
00:55:07,000 --> 00:55:08,879
Speaker 1: and he has to go to the emergency room where

927
00:55:08,920 --> 00:55:12,520
Speaker 1: hopefully the police will be there to arrest him. Well,

928
00:55:12,920 --> 00:55:15,040
Speaker 1: the woman doesn't necessarily get away, which is one of

929
00:55:15,080 --> 00:55:18,799
Speaker 1: the pitfalls that she admits to. It could encourage a

930
00:55:18,920 --> 00:55:24,040
Speaker 1: violence against the woman in the moment um, and another

931
00:55:24,360 --> 00:55:27,520
Speaker 1: person from the c d c UH says that it's

932
00:55:27,560 --> 00:55:32,200
Speaker 1: also a form of enslavement. It's um a constant reminder

933
00:55:32,400 --> 00:55:36,160
Speaker 1: of a woman's vulnerability um and it gives them also

934
00:55:36,200 --> 00:55:39,920
Speaker 1: a false sense of security. But the psychological trauma of

935
00:55:39,920 --> 00:55:42,239
Speaker 1: the rape is still there. But at least you're gonna

936
00:55:42,239 --> 00:55:46,440
Speaker 1: catch the guy, is the rationale. And um, when people

937
00:55:46,480 --> 00:55:49,759
Speaker 1: say that have told her this is a medieval thing

938
00:55:49,760 --> 00:55:52,560
Speaker 1: that you're coming up with, she says, so is rape.

939
00:55:52,800 --> 00:55:55,799
Speaker 1: So put that in your pipe and smoke it. Yeah,

940
00:55:56,080 --> 00:55:58,319
Speaker 1: and that thing is called the rape x are a

941
00:55:58,560 --> 00:56:01,760
Speaker 1: p hyphen a x e. And I believe it's raybacks

942
00:56:01,840 --> 00:56:05,160
Speaker 1: dot com maybe or something that takes you to the website.

943
00:56:05,200 --> 00:56:08,960
Speaker 1: But if you type in ray backs into your search browser,

944
00:56:09,040 --> 00:56:12,879
Speaker 1: that's gonna bring that up. What else, Chuck, I don't

945
00:56:12,920 --> 00:56:15,080
Speaker 1: have anything else. You don't want to talk about? The

946
00:56:15,120 --> 00:56:20,200
Speaker 1: goat condom. That's population control, man, all right, let's talk

947
00:56:20,239 --> 00:56:23,840
Speaker 1: about it like we are goats. To some people, there's

948
00:56:23,880 --> 00:56:26,960
Speaker 1: a something called an oh lore that um it's basically

949
00:56:27,000 --> 00:56:29,879
Speaker 1: this impediment that hangs from the abdomen of a male

950
00:56:29,960 --> 00:56:33,319
Speaker 1: goat that keeps him from Um, it's a barrier to

951
00:56:33,360 --> 00:56:37,799
Speaker 1: prevent him from penetrating the female during intercourse, right, And

952
00:56:38,200 --> 00:56:40,799
Speaker 1: they use this to control goat population so that they

953
00:56:40,800 --> 00:56:45,120
Speaker 1: don't starves. Familiar, And it's not a you know, it's

954
00:56:45,120 --> 00:56:46,719
Speaker 1: not something that goes on the penis. I think it's

955
00:56:46,760 --> 00:56:53,720
Speaker 1: just a physical barrier that just like a the male

956
00:56:53,800 --> 00:57:00,239
Speaker 1: goat chastity belt that the goat knocks into its Thanks

957
00:57:00,320 --> 00:57:04,000
Speaker 1: thank God for that. Yeah, just it's good though I'm

958
00:57:04,200 --> 00:57:08,759
Speaker 1: crack wise, but sure than starving goats. That is condoms.

959
00:57:09,719 --> 00:57:13,840
Speaker 1: Well done, Well done to YouTube, not much giggling. I

960
00:57:13,840 --> 00:57:20,000
Speaker 1: wonder how many times we said penis penis a bunch

961
00:57:20,120 --> 00:57:22,760
Speaker 1: more than we ever have in a conversation. I would say,

962
00:57:23,240 --> 00:57:25,600
Speaker 1: I would say that's probably fairly accurate. I wonder if

963
00:57:25,640 --> 00:57:28,560
Speaker 1: we topped that Sara Lives gets use of penis, remember

964
00:57:28,600 --> 00:57:31,680
Speaker 1: at the newdist camp. Oh yeah, with Kevin Nelon and

965
00:57:31,920 --> 00:57:36,360
Speaker 1: Mike Myers, And that's great. Uh, let's see. If you

Speaker 1: want to know more about condoms, you can find this

967
00:57:39,200 --> 00:57:42,840
Speaker 1: very thorough comprehensive article on the subject. By typing condom

968
00:57:42,920 --> 00:57:45,680
Speaker 1: into the search part how stuff works dot com. You

Speaker 1: up a lot of really good, well written, well researched

971
00:57:52,920 --> 00:57:55,040
Speaker 1: articles that will probably answer a lot of questions you

972
00:57:55,120 --> 00:57:56,960
Speaker 1: might have about that kind of thing. Yeah, I think

973
00:57:57,000 --> 00:57:59,760
Speaker 1: we should start peppering these throughout. Do a little more.

974
00:57:59,800 --> 00:58:06,960
Speaker 1: Set said here and there. Okay, that's good. Um, you well,

975
00:58:07,000 --> 00:58:09,560
Speaker 1: since we said sex said, since Chuck said sex said,

976
00:58:09,960 --> 00:58:11,640
Speaker 1: you know what that means? You know what that means.

977
00:58:11,680 --> 00:58:15,760
Speaker 1: It's time for listener mail. All right, UM, I'm gonna

978
00:58:15,800 --> 00:58:19,560
Speaker 1: call this music experiment. Um, you guys are awesome. Been

979
00:58:19,560 --> 00:58:22,160
Speaker 1: listening since about two thousand ten. Just listen to Why

980
00:58:22,200 --> 00:58:24,560
Speaker 1: does music provoke emotion? I thought I would share an

981
00:58:24,640 --> 00:58:27,240
Speaker 1: experiment that I did a few years ago. I came

982
00:58:27,280 --> 00:58:29,680
Speaker 1: up with the idea of listening to my music in

983
00:58:29,800 --> 00:58:33,360
Speaker 1: sequential order by year of release. Yeah, it's pretty cool.

984
00:58:33,360 --> 00:58:35,520
Speaker 1: I don't have his name now I feel awful. Um.

985
00:58:35,520 --> 00:58:37,919
Speaker 1: I started biting it up by five years, and each

986
00:58:38,000 --> 00:58:40,280
Speaker 1: five year period took about one and a half to

987
00:58:40,320 --> 00:58:44,280
Speaker 1: two weeks. So he's basically only listening to that era

988
00:58:44,800 --> 00:58:49,200
Speaker 1: in order, one at a time, So like the fifth

989
00:58:49,240 --> 00:58:56,000
Speaker 1: week of September ninety two, which never existed like that,

990
00:58:56,680 --> 00:58:59,400
Speaker 1: you well, just in order, like I'm listening to the

991
00:58:59,480 --> 00:59:03,480
Speaker 1: nineteen five these music for this week. So the whole thing,

992
00:59:03,720 --> 00:59:05,800
Speaker 1: uh ended up taking about three and a half months,

993
00:59:05,800 --> 00:59:07,800
Speaker 1: which is much longer than I planned. I'm a big

994
00:59:07,880 --> 00:59:11,000
Speaker 1: music guy and I started at around pre nineteen fifties.

995
00:59:11,360 --> 00:59:12,800
Speaker 1: I should note that while I did this, I did

996
00:59:12,880 --> 00:59:15,680
Speaker 1: my best to isolate myself musically. What did listening to

997
00:59:15,680 --> 00:59:18,080
Speaker 1: anything else that wasn't from that period that I was

998
00:59:18,120 --> 00:59:20,480
Speaker 1: in that week. That's kind of cool. I ended up

999
00:59:20,480 --> 00:59:22,360
Speaker 1: being one of the most rewarding experience I've had in

1000
00:59:22,360 --> 00:59:24,920
Speaker 1: a long time. Aside from noticing many new things and

1001
00:59:25,000 --> 00:59:27,960
Speaker 1: songs that I had listened to countless times before, I

1002
00:59:28,000 --> 00:59:30,160
Speaker 1: feel like I began forming a connection with the time

1003
00:59:30,160 --> 00:59:37,080
Speaker 1: period of the music I was listening to. Now. At times,

1004
00:59:37,120 --> 00:59:39,760
Speaker 1: I could almost feel the angst or even excitement of

1005
00:59:39,800 --> 00:59:43,200
Speaker 1: events long past, as if I had lived them, events

1006
00:59:43,200 --> 00:59:45,680
Speaker 1: that weren't necessarily mentioned or addressed in the songs themselves.

1007
00:59:45,920 --> 00:59:47,800
Speaker 1: For the time I was done, I felt like I

1008
00:59:47,800 --> 00:59:52,360
Speaker 1: had traveled through time. I had a strange connection with

1009
00:59:52,400 --> 00:59:55,520
Speaker 1: events I had never experienced except through the music that

1010
00:59:55,600 --> 00:59:57,840
Speaker 1: was popular at the time of those events. Many things

1011
00:59:57,840 --> 01:00:00,160
Speaker 1: that didn't make much sense to me musically, all of

1012
01:00:00,200 --> 01:00:03,040
Speaker 1: a sudden had a different significance. So thanks for the

1013
01:00:03,040 --> 01:00:06,040
Speaker 1: work guys. Definitely makes my drive to work a much

1014
01:00:06,040 --> 01:00:09,560
Speaker 1: more enjoyable. Thanks again, And I wish I had your name. Well,

1017
01:00:16,680 --> 01:00:20,440

1018
01:00:20,480 --> 01:00:24,120
Speaker 1: to Yeah, of course we do. It seems like a

1019
01:00:24,160 --> 01:00:26,240
Speaker 1: bad idea. I think it's a great idea. Well, then
