She has two amazing albums on Spotify and 0:01:47.520 --> 0:01:50.680 Apple Music and all the other places that you download things. 0:01:50.960 --> 0:01:58.960 Give it up for Chole was sharp. Everybody. That's everybody? 0:01:59.520 --> 0:02:03.200 Why that is a big place. She got there all 0:02:03.240 --> 0:02:06.440 those people you would think, we're not in quarantine. I 0:02:06.480 --> 0:02:11.040 know all these people I have in my home coughing 0:02:11.040 --> 0:02:14.919 in my mouth. Yeah, that's so sweet. Yeah, how you doing, 0:02:15.639 --> 0:02:19.720 I'm doing okay. Yeah, I'm happy you're here. I was 0:02:19.840 --> 0:02:24.040 just saying that this is reaching that weird part of 0:02:24.520 --> 0:02:28.040 quarantine where no one else is doing it, and so 0:02:28.160 --> 0:02:31.400 I feel as if that's driving me a little crazy. 0:02:31.440 --> 0:02:34.239 But how are you? How how are you handling? Oh? 0:02:34.440 --> 0:02:39.079 I'm I'm fine. I've really uh kind of moved into 0:02:39.280 --> 0:02:42.760 my um staring at people out the window years a 0:02:42.800 --> 0:02:47.280 lot sooner, and I thought I would. I didn't see 0:02:47.320 --> 0:02:50.880 that for me for another like twenty years. But I'm 0:02:51.160 --> 0:02:55.440 strongly there now, and I am quietly yelling at people 0:02:55.600 --> 0:02:58.440 who walk by with no masks. On. Okay, you say 0:02:58.520 --> 0:03:02.000 you're yelling. Are you actually saying stuff or is it 0:03:02.080 --> 0:03:06.360 more just being irate in your brain? It's I'm furious 0:03:06.400 --> 0:03:12.200 in my brain. Sure, But the most that I can do, like, uh, sonically, 0:03:12.280 --> 0:03:18.359 it's just and hope that no one can place what 0:03:18.480 --> 0:03:22.919 window that noise. I'd love to say anytime an older 0:03:22.960 --> 0:03:25.839 black woman does that sound, you know it's a it's 0:03:25.840 --> 0:03:29.680 a bad thing. You're not confused that this isn't judgmental, 0:03:29.800 --> 0:03:33.600 it's just can you place which window? This judgment? Yeah? 0:03:33.639 --> 0:03:36.400 Where did this come from? Yeah? So you know, I 0:03:36.440 --> 0:03:38.880 definitely have seen some reaction of just like a let 0:03:38.880 --> 0:03:40.560 me get a pep in my step and move it 0:03:40.600 --> 0:03:44.000 along because someone has seen my full face. Now, yes, 0:03:44.600 --> 0:03:47.880 but you know it's just me and the cat judging 0:03:47.920 --> 0:03:50.920 people outside my window. It's it's not bad. I got you. 0:03:51.160 --> 0:03:55.360 Are you staying indoors? Are you are you completely locked in? 0:03:55.680 --> 0:03:58.080 Or are you venturing out into the w have to 0:03:58.360 --> 0:04:03.280 venture out for my job, which is I mean, it's fine. 0:04:03.600 --> 0:04:06.480 I don't really run into anyone at my job, and 0:04:06.520 --> 0:04:10.920 I've been you know, taking cars there, but even that 0:04:11.160 --> 0:04:16.000 is like a you know, getting into someone's car and 0:04:16.080 --> 0:04:20.240 just rolling down the windows immediately right my head out 0:04:20.920 --> 0:04:25.039 like a dog. You know. It's I really thought that 0:04:25.080 --> 0:04:27.760 the apocalypse was going to be more like I am legend, 0:04:28.000 --> 0:04:29.600 do you know what I mean? Like, I think there 0:04:29.640 --> 0:04:31.279 was a part of me, and I'm sure we all 0:04:31.279 --> 0:04:33.200 felt this way where it was like, oh man, we're 0:04:33.200 --> 0:04:36.520 gonna have guns and be running from zombies. It's gonna 0:04:36.560 --> 0:04:39.280 be wild. But it's just like now. Sometimes I gotta 0:04:39.320 --> 0:04:41.320 call it uber and asked the uber driver to put 0:04:41.400 --> 0:04:44.800 his mass back on. It's yeah. I thought we would 0:04:44.839 --> 0:04:49.800 be stepping over bodies, like carrying heavy sticks, and instead, 0:04:49.880 --> 0:04:53.160 I'm just annoyed that my lift driver missed the exit. 0:04:54.920 --> 0:05:01.160 I thought it was going to go day three out 0:05:01.200 --> 0:05:04.440 of Raisin. It's gonna venture outside and see if I 0:05:04.480 --> 0:05:07.680 can get some more. Yeah, that's a lot of that's 0:05:07.720 --> 0:05:10.200 a lot of what I'm doing. So I got you well, 0:05:10.279 --> 0:05:12.640 I I I don't want to dig too much further 0:05:12.680 --> 0:05:18.719 into either of our depression. I'm excited today because you 0:05:18.760 --> 0:05:21.760 know that the podcast is my mama told me it's 0:05:21.800 --> 0:05:25.040 all about black conspiracy theories. You are a person who 0:05:25.120 --> 0:05:29.400 I know subscribes to black conspiracy theories and conspiracy theories 0:05:29.400 --> 0:05:32.880 of all natures, and so I am really excited you 0:05:32.960 --> 0:05:36.720 sent us a topic that I think is unbelievably engaging 0:05:37.000 --> 0:05:39.719 that I'm so excited to talk about. You said, my 0:05:39.760 --> 0:05:43.800 mama told me the chips and black neighborhoods have more 0:05:43.880 --> 0:05:51.039 sauls on them than the ones in the white neighborhoods. Yes. 0:05:51.600 --> 0:05:54.919 I came upon this realization when I was in a 0:05:55.040 --> 0:05:58.840 Family Dollar, the neighborhood that I lived in when I 0:05:58.920 --> 0:06:02.520 was still in Atlanta to it was right around the 0:06:02.600 --> 0:06:06.479 historically black colleges I lived over there, which are Family Dollar, 0:06:07.160 --> 0:06:12.000 just for clarity, are known bad neighborhoods. Your more House, Yeah, 0:06:12.880 --> 0:06:15.800 you're other ones that I believe have been UM lost 0:06:15.800 --> 0:06:24.000 their accreditation anyway. Some of them aren't technically universities anymore, right, 0:06:24.240 --> 0:06:26.920 But I mean, you know, the bands are good. But 0:06:28.800 --> 0:06:32.080 I so I lived over there. I lived near a 0:06:32.160 --> 0:06:36.839 grocery store that was also called a city center, so 0:06:36.960 --> 0:06:40.159 you know, it was one of those large grocery stores 0:06:40.200 --> 0:06:42.240 that had all kinds of things. And then in the 0:06:42.240 --> 0:06:46.160 front row, just beyond the registers, there were like a 0:06:46.200 --> 0:06:53.360 few um wig shops or jewelry places. I love. I 0:06:53.400 --> 0:06:57.360 love the idea that that a accredited University is just 0:06:57.440 --> 0:07:01.520 surrounded by wig shops as far as the eye can see. 0:07:01.880 --> 0:07:06.680 It's just it's just elite education and Nicki Minaj wigs 0:07:06.680 --> 0:07:09.720 wherever you look. Oh that's it's so oh my goodness, 0:07:09.840 --> 0:07:11.920 I miss it. I miss it a lot. I missed 0:07:12.040 --> 0:07:14.720 being over there. But I was in a family dollar 0:07:14.920 --> 0:07:19.040 picking up some odds and ends. You know, your cocoa butter, 0:07:20.120 --> 0:07:23.800 you know what, dish towel, things like that happened. Happened 0:07:23.800 --> 0:07:28.080 if just the things you need a perfect grocery list. 0:07:27.920 --> 0:07:34.480 But I also had some chips, some pringles, some sour 0:07:34.560 --> 0:07:39.600 cream and onion pringles. As the young lady behind the 0:07:39.640 --> 0:07:45.400 cash register was ringing me up, she boomed the pringles 0:07:45.480 --> 0:07:49.640 and then she looked at me, just very earnestly, and 0:07:49.720 --> 0:07:53.640 she said, you know what, I feel like, I love 0:07:53.720 --> 0:07:55.760 these chips, but I feel like when you get them 0:07:55.800 --> 0:07:58.720 like from here, they got more sauce on him. I mean, 0:08:02.400 --> 0:08:06.480 does she knew, she knew she was telling you poison 0:08:07.400 --> 0:08:09.480 and yeah, and she was like, I really, I mean 0:08:09.520 --> 0:08:11.160 I like these chips, but I really like to get 0:08:11.200 --> 0:08:14.200 him from here because they got more sauce on him. 0:08:14.240 --> 0:08:18.480 I said, you were absolutely right, because I realized the 0:08:18.520 --> 0:08:21.960 reason I'm picking them up from here is because of 0:08:22.000 --> 0:08:26.360 the extra sauce. Uh, now that I think about it, Yeah, 0:08:27.040 --> 0:08:29.720 you're referring to it as sauce. I think that for 0:08:29.760 --> 0:08:33.520 me has been a jarring way of referring to it. Oh, 0:08:33.880 --> 0:08:37.520 it definitely took me. I was like sauce, but I 0:08:37.600 --> 0:08:40.920 also knew where I was, and I felt like, if 0:08:40.960 --> 0:08:44.360 I'm in Atlanta, I'm in her family dollar. Let me 0:08:44.559 --> 0:08:48.560 go on, and this is the correct into semantics. Let's 0:08:48.559 --> 0:08:53.120 focus on the conversation. If sauces the lexicon, sauce is 0:08:53.120 --> 0:08:55.920 what I'm gonna say. And so I said, yeah, you're 0:08:55.960 --> 0:09:00.480 absolutely right, there is more sauce in a family dollar angle. 0:09:00.880 --> 0:09:06.319 Uh then at say a Publix. Okay, you know, all right, 0:09:06.640 --> 0:09:10.160 let me dig further into this because because number one, 0:09:10.440 --> 0:09:14.760 I believe you, let's start that way. I one, and 0:09:14.800 --> 0:09:18.680 I'm convinced that what you're saying is absolutely true. How 0:09:18.800 --> 0:09:22.640 do did you ever buy multiple pringles and compare Have 0:09:22.720 --> 0:09:25.120 you ever held them up to the light to see 0:09:25.160 --> 0:09:27.920 if one is you know, the light penetrates then the 0:09:27.960 --> 0:09:30.719 other one doesn't? Like how do you know? Well? I 0:09:30.760 --> 0:09:34.280 have I did do something of a taste test as 0:09:34.520 --> 0:09:37.080 a sad confession, and I love it is it is 0:09:37.200 --> 0:09:40.240 very sad. But I mean you're talking to someone that 0:09:40.480 --> 0:09:42.640 when I got a box of pop tarts that I 0:09:42.679 --> 0:09:45.680 really liked, that they were well done, I marked the 0:09:46.240 --> 0:09:50.120 lot number so that I knew to look for that 0:09:50.240 --> 0:09:53.040 lot number the next time I went to the grocery Shopoy, 0:09:53.120 --> 0:09:55.880 do you understand? You see what I mean? So you're 0:09:55.960 --> 0:09:59.720 under the impression that, like, there's just like certain chefs 0:09:59.760 --> 0:10:05.320 at a pop Tarts. Oh, Bernice, hook these pop tarts up. Yeah, 0:10:05.440 --> 0:10:10.079 they're fool Today you have to know which grocery stores 0:10:10.120 --> 0:10:12.360 are putting a foot in your waffles, do you know 0:10:12.400 --> 0:10:15.760 what I mean? So I pay attention to that kind 0:10:15.760 --> 0:10:19.040 of stuff. Yeah, after the sauce coming, I was like, 0:10:19.120 --> 0:10:21.840 I wonder if I'm if she made that up and 0:10:21.880 --> 0:10:24.360 I'm just co signing, or if that's something I felt 0:10:24.360 --> 0:10:27.600 in my soul already, let me run over to public 0:10:27.720 --> 0:10:29.839 and get a canister and let me just see if 0:10:29.880 --> 0:10:33.720 this is truly the case. And it was the case, 0:10:33.880 --> 0:10:36.400 It's nothing you can see because Springles is kind of 0:10:36.440 --> 0:10:41.559 smart in how they disperse it. That's the trick, right, 0:10:42.800 --> 0:10:44.680 So that's how they get That's how they get you 0:10:44.720 --> 0:10:48.840 because they they don't want to just if you put 0:10:48.840 --> 0:10:50.959 too much on it all at once in the middle, 0:10:51.040 --> 0:10:53.920 you're like, this chip is poison. You're trying to take 0:10:53.960 --> 0:10:57.200 me out, white devil. But if they spread it out 0:10:57.240 --> 0:10:59.640 evenly across the whole of the chip, you're just like 0:11:00.240 --> 0:11:04.000 a lovely, different, more exciting treat. It's a great chip. 0:11:04.240 --> 0:11:07.360 I mean, why would I question it? Yeah, it's um so. 0:11:07.440 --> 0:11:11.680 I did taste and it. It definitely was saltier on 0:11:11.720 --> 0:11:15.839 the family dollar side. And that also, and that's important 0:11:15.880 --> 0:11:20.679 to note because I was trying out chips that can 0:11:20.720 --> 0:11:23.800 be found in both locations. Do you know what I mean? 0:11:23.880 --> 0:11:27.160 In white neighborhoods and black neighborhoods, Because as we all know, 0:11:27.800 --> 0:11:31.120 there are chips that never make it to the white neighborhood. 0:11:31.200 --> 0:11:34.560 And I think that that's super important. There there are 0:11:34.559 --> 0:11:36.079 a bunch of chips that never make it to the 0:11:36.080 --> 0:11:39.400 white neighborhood, and vice versa. There are tons of chips 0:11:39.440 --> 0:11:43.760 that that you never will see in a black neighborhood. Peto's. 0:11:44.360 --> 0:11:48.679 I've never seen a goddamn Peeto's in any urban setting, 0:11:48.760 --> 0:11:51.000 do you know what I mean? Like, we're not we're 0:11:51.000 --> 0:11:53.280 not making chips. I I went to a friend's house 0:11:53.360 --> 0:11:56.200 once and they had a bowl full of chips made 0:11:56.240 --> 0:12:00.719 of cricket. Like. The chips were made of the bodies 0:12:00.840 --> 0:12:04.520 of dead crickets and they had compressed them into chip. 0:12:05.080 --> 0:12:09.839 And of course I ate it because I don't know humility, 0:12:10.400 --> 0:12:14.120 You lost the dare. No. I live a lavish life 0:12:14.120 --> 0:12:16.400 and I'm not gonna let myself be sold short by 0:12:16.400 --> 0:12:19.760 my own fears. But I will say that that is 0:12:19.800 --> 0:12:23.400 not available in any urban settings that I've I've seen 0:12:23.440 --> 0:12:28.600 thus far. No, Black people are not knowingly eating crickets. No, 0:12:28.880 --> 0:12:32.520 not at all. And that's because I'm gonna sell out. Yeah, 0:12:33.320 --> 0:12:35.520 oh yeah, Hans just sent this to me. It's called 0:12:35.760 --> 0:12:40.880 Chirps Cricket Protein Chips Variety pack. It literally says chirps 0:12:41.280 --> 0:12:46.400 eat bugs. And that's the thing is that, Um, I'm 0:12:46.400 --> 0:12:50.160 painting with the broadest of strokes here, but I can't 0:12:50.280 --> 0:12:51.920 think of a time that I've been in a black 0:12:51.960 --> 0:12:54.880 neighborhood and in their chip section there was just like 0:12:55.040 --> 0:12:58.120 the protein ones, right, do you know what I mean? 0:12:58.200 --> 0:13:02.440 If there are protein based someone has moved it. We 0:13:02.600 --> 0:13:06.000 don't specified chips based off of what they offer to 0:13:06.080 --> 0:13:11.440 your body. For your tongue. It's for your tongue. It's 0:13:11.480 --> 0:13:16.439 the lickability fat. What color your fingers? The orange chips 0:13:16.520 --> 0:13:20.520 or red chips? Right? Exactly? Am I going to stay 0:13:20.600 --> 0:13:24.880 my shirt? Orange or blue? Which one? It's the it's 0:13:24.920 --> 0:13:28.560 the color of the bag. Like what kind of doritos 0:13:28.600 --> 0:13:31.240 do you want? Oh? I want red? Okay, those are 0:13:31.640 --> 0:13:36.000 just your basic nacho cheese. Absolutely, Oh I want blue, 0:13:36.160 --> 0:13:38.679 which we all know is the cool Ranch. And you know, 0:13:39.120 --> 0:13:42.360 you know me and my history was cool Ranch, of course. 0:13:42.760 --> 0:13:47.440 But our listeners just so some of them are idiots 0:13:47.440 --> 0:13:49.400 and they don't know. Yeah, they don't know. They don't 0:13:49.400 --> 0:13:55.200 know their history. But um, when I was like twelve 0:13:55.280 --> 0:13:58.560 years old, I was in a focus group for Cool 0:13:58.679 --> 0:14:03.319 Ranch doritos. So cool Ranch weren't made yet. They were 0:14:03.400 --> 0:14:08.679 testing them out on small minds and bodies and um, 0:14:08.720 --> 0:14:13.319 and my mother was real big on the focus group circuit. 0:14:14.720 --> 0:14:17.400 She was she was a star in the circuit. You 0:14:17.440 --> 0:14:21.120 were living in a world pre cool Ranch. What is it? 0:14:21.240 --> 0:14:24.600 Before Christ? Before cool Ranch? I get it? It was yeah. 0:14:24.680 --> 0:14:26.840 And so there were there were like five or six 0:14:26.880 --> 0:14:30.200 of us, and they had them unlabeled, just in a 0:14:30.240 --> 0:14:32.920 bowl and we're just eating them, and then they're like, well, 0:14:32.920 --> 0:14:34.560 what do you think and we're like, all right, that's 0:14:34.640 --> 0:14:36.640 I mean, it seems fine. It's got a little zing, 0:14:36.800 --> 0:14:40.120 I guess, but yeah, I'd continue to eat this because 0:14:40.120 --> 0:14:42.120 You've put it in front of me, and I'm a 0:14:42.160 --> 0:14:45.720 twelve year old. You know, it's a chip. I'm gonna 0:14:45.760 --> 0:14:49.560 eat it. I think, like many chips, I'm enjoying it, 0:14:50.080 --> 0:14:52.920 mostly because I'm not allowed to have them constantly. In 0:14:52.960 --> 0:14:56.240 every part exactly. We all got a bowl of it. 0:14:56.360 --> 0:14:58.240 We love, we absolutely love, and they gave us like 0:14:58.280 --> 0:15:03.120 forty bucks and they were like thanks. Um. About three 0:15:03.200 --> 0:15:06.360 months later, I saw it on the Shell Show and 0:15:06.360 --> 0:15:08.800 I was like, hey, those were the chips that they've 0:15:08.840 --> 0:15:11.640 made us eat that I got money for. And everybody 0:15:11.680 --> 0:15:14.840 was like, shut the funk up, No one cares by 0:15:14.840 --> 0:15:18.760 your focus group. My dad was a little jealous because, um, 0:15:18.760 --> 0:15:21.200 when my mother, the last focused for my mom had 0:15:21.240 --> 0:15:24.240 done before that was for like tussy deodorant, so we 0:15:24.320 --> 0:15:27.440 had we were stuck with Tussy deodorant for like a year. 0:15:27.680 --> 0:15:31.880 I've never even heard of precisely, that group was way off. 0:15:31.920 --> 0:15:34.680 I was worried that it was like a hot deodorant 0:15:34.680 --> 0:15:38.280 that I'm unaware of. I've recently had to switch to 0:15:38.360 --> 0:15:41.680 a natural deodorant because I get uh, I get like 0:15:41.880 --> 0:15:45.360 boils if I oh, interesting, how is that working for you? 0:15:45.400 --> 0:15:47.880 I was concerned. I literally was having that discussion with 0:15:47.960 --> 0:15:52.400 my roommate the other night. Um. Natural deodorant for me 0:15:52.520 --> 0:15:55.800 personally have been ineffective. But I am not having to 0:15:55.840 --> 0:15:59.880 go to the emergency room. So I stink. But there's 0:16:00.000 --> 0:16:03.400 ol pus coming out of me. So you can ask 0:16:03.480 --> 0:16:07.440 for really all you. I just I've been in this uh, 0:16:07.520 --> 0:16:12.320 in this lockdown time, these convidian times, I just haven't 0:16:12.320 --> 0:16:20.640 been wearing uh deodorant. And yeah, it's been fine. I 0:16:21.280 --> 0:16:27.240 think we probably should check with my roommates. Um. Um, 0:16:27.480 --> 0:16:29.800 but it doesn't make eye contact with me anymore. But 0:16:30.160 --> 0:16:35.720 we're fine. We don't speak. We mostly text, but um 0:16:35.880 --> 0:16:40.440 but yeah, now that it's warm, I'm realizing my body 0:16:40.520 --> 0:16:44.400 was being real chill. Now it's like, oh, we gotta 0:16:45.240 --> 0:16:49.040 we smell you smell. We need something. We did something 0:16:49.120 --> 0:16:51.960 so I don't know. I had been just rubbing like 0:16:52.120 --> 0:16:55.880 lotion on there, just like to do it. It will 0:16:55.920 --> 0:16:59.720 not do it, but I will say that that that 0:17:00.040 --> 0:17:04.800 ultimately the all the bullshit that they put into regular 0:17:04.880 --> 0:17:09.240 deodorant is bad for you. So there probably is a 0:17:09.280 --> 0:17:14.520 compromise between saying fuck it and poisoning your body with aluminum. 0:17:15.040 --> 0:17:17.520 That's just my pitch. I'm sure your roommate has some 0:17:17.600 --> 0:17:21.960 other thoughts, but but probably I I don't want to boil. 0:17:22.080 --> 0:17:26.280 Who want to boil? Oh? It's painful. I had to 0:17:26.320 --> 0:17:28.720 cry in front of my wife in an emergency room 0:17:28.840 --> 0:17:31.879 while a lady stabbed me in the armpit to to 0:17:32.080 --> 0:17:35.080 drain things out of me that I never thought belonged there, 0:17:35.160 --> 0:17:37.520 and no one else did either. It was a consensus 0:17:37.560 --> 0:17:40.359 that didn't belong in my body. No, that shouldn't know 0:17:40.400 --> 0:17:46.640 what color was the pus? I whitish, yellowish. It wasn't 0:17:46.800 --> 0:17:50.040 I think infected. I mean it was infected, but it 0:17:50.080 --> 0:17:55.760 wasn't like certainly like a dangerous infection. Yeah, this podcast 0:17:55.840 --> 0:17:59.760 is really taking a taking a turn. It really, Yes, yes, 0:18:01.560 --> 0:18:04.480 just talking about the color of our pus and I 0:18:04.480 --> 0:18:09.200 mean it's but it's a natural question. Sure, speaking of color, 0:18:09.280 --> 0:18:12.560 I will say, Uh, you brought up an excellent point 0:18:12.600 --> 0:18:16.440 about doritos and chips and the color associations that black 0:18:16.480 --> 0:18:20.160 people will make that oftentimes with all flavoring of all kinds. 0:18:20.520 --> 0:18:23.480 We just sort of say the red ones, the blue ones, 0:18:23.720 --> 0:18:27.440 red kool Aid, blue cool aid, fucking you know, the 0:18:27.480 --> 0:18:30.600 Capri son that has the orange guy on it or 0:18:30.600 --> 0:18:33.320 the Capris Son that has the light blue guy on it. 0:18:34.840 --> 0:18:38.440 Memorizing flavors. I think that's a very white thing flavors. 0:18:39.280 --> 0:18:43.840 I think so because it's basically the same flavors kind 0:18:43.840 --> 0:18:48.080 of just rearrange a little bit, and maybe they just 0:18:48.160 --> 0:18:51.520 throw in another dash of something else and then change 0:18:51.560 --> 0:18:55.680 the bad purple. It's um like there's no difference between 0:18:55.920 --> 0:19:00.520 tropical and Baja. It's just one is pie an apple, 0:19:01.000 --> 0:19:05.119 peach and orange, and then the other one is peach, pineapple, 0:19:05.320 --> 0:19:09.040 orange and cherry. And it's like that's a no, I know, 0:19:09.400 --> 0:19:12.359 that's the same ship. You just added a little something 0:19:12.359 --> 0:19:15.480 on the back end. Yeah. I once went to a 0:19:15.520 --> 0:19:18.159 soul food restaurant where you know, they just kind of 0:19:18.600 --> 0:19:21.720 built built your plate as you slid down and then 0:19:21.720 --> 0:19:24.080 you got it at the end. And so their drink, 0:19:24.160 --> 0:19:27.040 what the drink selections were behind them, and I'm squinting 0:19:27.080 --> 0:19:30.439 past this woman trying to see I saw that something 0:19:30.520 --> 0:19:33.200 was like a high sea flavored, so I was trying 0:19:33.200 --> 0:19:34.840 to see if we were working with like a pink 0:19:34.920 --> 0:19:38.359 lemonade or regular like what was going on? And the 0:19:38.400 --> 0:19:40.399 woman saw me kind of squinting, and she was just like, 0:19:40.440 --> 0:19:44.679 it's red, baby, it's red. Unless then I'll take a 0:19:44.760 --> 0:19:48.440 large That's all I needed, all I needed to know. Man, 0:19:48.600 --> 0:19:53.280 you are speaking my language. That's all I want. Tall red, 0:19:53.440 --> 0:20:00.840 please extra large red. I'll have a venty red if uh, 0:20:00.880 --> 0:20:05.840 if you don't mind, I love my red venty Well, okay, 0:20:05.880 --> 0:20:08.360 so you brought up something really fascinating when you were 0:20:08.359 --> 0:20:11.399 telling the story of your discovery, and one of the 0:20:11.440 --> 0:20:15.040 things that I guess I think I took in reading 0:20:15.600 --> 0:20:18.119 what you sent, or at least I thought I was 0:20:18.280 --> 0:20:21.600 I was hearing. But maybe this is a completely different direction. 0:20:22.440 --> 0:20:25.320 When she told you that there was more sauce on 0:20:25.400 --> 0:20:30.320 these chips, she wasn't saying it in a threatening way. No, 0:20:31.480 --> 0:20:33.920 Like this wasn't her being like and this is how 0:20:33.960 --> 0:20:37.040 they this is that's how they get you. It was 0:20:37.119 --> 0:20:41.000 more of her being like, like, we this is a 0:20:41.119 --> 0:20:45.000 cheat code. Hell yeah, this is a cheat code. Get 0:20:45.040 --> 0:20:48.479 them here because this is where the sauces see automn 0:20:48.480 --> 0:20:52.159 white devils. They Yeah, you can work around with Kroger 0:20:52.200 --> 0:20:55.320 if you walk to but we know you and I 0:20:55.560 --> 0:20:58.520 we know where the sauce is not enough spices on 0:20:58.640 --> 0:21:02.879 them chips. You got here, right, And I mean it 0:21:02.960 --> 0:21:07.000 totally makes it made perfect sense. And I realized subconsciously 0:21:07.040 --> 0:21:10.280 that's what I was That's what I was doing. It's 0:21:10.280 --> 0:21:13.240 getting them there because of that, because you know, um, 0:21:13.240 --> 0:21:16.600 in black neighborhood, that's also where you find a broader 0:21:16.680 --> 0:21:20.119 variety of snack cakes. I mean, they're for sure trying 0:21:20.160 --> 0:21:25.480 to kill us, um, but the variety, you know, the 0:21:25.600 --> 0:21:28.960 various ways they're trying to kill us, it must be noted. 0:21:29.080 --> 0:21:31.800 If you're gonna murder me, give me all the options. 0:21:32.040 --> 0:21:35.280 Give me choices. Put out a mallet, put out a gun, 0:21:35.600 --> 0:21:39.240 put out an alligator. Give me all the options of 0:21:39.280 --> 0:21:42.359 how I could die so I can then make a 0:21:42.480 --> 0:21:45.000 sound decision from that. Let me You know what, if 0:21:45.040 --> 0:21:47.879 I want to die via oatmeal cream pie, let me 0:21:47.920 --> 0:21:50.840 do it. Let me do it. That is that how 0:21:50.880 --> 0:21:54.879 you want to go? Oatmeal creampie. If you had a 0:21:55.119 --> 0:22:00.119 preferred food to give you your ultimate diabetes and or 0:22:00.200 --> 0:22:04.640 high blood pressure, well, which do you want to take you? Out? There? 0:22:04.720 --> 0:22:10.520 Is the little debbie? Um, Star Crunch snack cake. That 0:22:10.800 --> 0:22:15.320 was the last snack cake I ate before I had 0:22:15.359 --> 0:22:18.920 to be rushed to the emergency room, where I discovered 0:22:18.960 --> 0:22:23.920 I had gall stones, and then discovered that my gall 0:22:24.000 --> 0:22:27.840 bladder had actually kind of exploded and there were all 0:22:27.880 --> 0:22:30.199 throughout my body, and they thought they were just going 0:22:30.240 --> 0:22:31.879 to take out a few stones, and they had to 0:22:31.880 --> 0:22:33.600 cut me open. And I have like a six and 0:22:33.600 --> 0:22:35.680 a half inchcar. So the last thing I ate before 0:22:35.760 --> 0:22:38.240 that was a Star Crunch, and I thought I'd never 0:22:38.320 --> 0:22:43.240 eat him again, and I had one yesterday. So we're 0:22:43.280 --> 0:22:48.080 a literal Little Debbie survivor. Yes, you're You're like, you 0:22:48.080 --> 0:22:50.800 could have been a hero story. You could have taken 0:22:50.840 --> 0:22:54.080 down Little Debbie and proved that they were like a 0:22:54.119 --> 0:22:59.200 destroyer in our community. And you're like, yeah, I mean 0:22:59.240 --> 0:23:03.160 that's real good, too, damn good? How did they get 0:23:03.200 --> 0:23:07.359 it in that shape? Too good? To me? Man, it's great? 0:23:08.160 --> 0:23:10.359 Is that real rice? I don't know, I don't care 0:23:10.600 --> 0:23:13.720 who cares. Put it in. Put it in my gall bladder, 0:23:13.720 --> 0:23:20.680 which will eventually explode. In two stars. We're gonna take 0:23:20.680 --> 0:23:23.680 a break and we'll be back with more, my mama 0:23:23.720 --> 0:23:43.480 told me. And we are back anyway. We are back. 0:23:46.119 --> 0:23:49.080 We're back with my dear friend SHELI was sharp who 0:23:49.200 --> 0:23:51.480 during the break was saying some stuff about how black 0:23:51.480 --> 0:23:54.680 people need to just get over everything that's happening. Would 0:23:54.720 --> 0:23:58.200 care to expand on any of that? I mean, come on, y'all. 0:24:02.600 --> 0:24:05.520 Jalewa has Has, as you know, has been telling us 0:24:05.560 --> 0:24:09.000 all about her theory that the chips have more spice 0:24:09.119 --> 0:24:12.439 or sauce or seasoning if you will, on them in 0:24:12.560 --> 0:24:16.640 certain communities and not in others. And I, uh, Chalia, 0:24:16.760 --> 0:24:19.600 have been doing some research. I did some research on 0:24:19.680 --> 0:24:22.240 your theory that I'd love to just run past you. 0:24:23.040 --> 0:24:26.760 And this supports or denies. Let's just see where we 0:24:26.880 --> 0:24:29.240 land in talking more about some of the things that 0:24:29.280 --> 0:24:33.199 I've uncovered. Okay, let's start with some basics. So I 0:24:33.240 --> 0:24:35.840 was doing some research on the size of chips because 0:24:36.240 --> 0:24:41.040 originally when I saw your your theory, I I assume 0:24:41.119 --> 0:24:44.040 that you are going to be telling about the decrease 0:24:44.560 --> 0:24:48.760 in size of the bags over the years. Have you 0:24:48.800 --> 0:24:52.760 had that conspiracy theory at all? Um? I am familiar 0:24:52.880 --> 0:24:55.879 with just how they have gotten smaller but more in 0:24:56.080 --> 0:25:00.399 like a um, when your parents start complaining about the 0:25:00.520 --> 0:25:03.840 portions at grocery stores and how they've raised the prices, 0:25:03.880 --> 0:25:09.560 but they've taken two cookies. In that sense, I am familiar, right, 0:25:09.640 --> 0:25:12.320 So I think I similarly have like many of us 0:25:12.359 --> 0:25:14.720 have noticed it over the years. But there's also a 0:25:14.720 --> 0:25:16.720 part of you that doesn't want to sound like your 0:25:16.800 --> 0:25:19.119 dad when you see it. You don't want to be 0:25:19.160 --> 0:25:20.800 like an old man being like I remember when the 0:25:20.880 --> 0:25:23.520 chips was this big, and it's like, come on, man, 0:25:24.680 --> 0:25:30.840 stop this, don't be this person. But okay, So given that, though, 0:25:30.920 --> 0:25:34.560 there is evidence that the regular lace which are sold 0:25:34.600 --> 0:25:38.160 in ten ounce bags, and this is where it gets interesting, Uh, 0:25:38.280 --> 0:25:41.320 regular lays are sold in ten ounce bag, but flavored 0:25:41.400 --> 0:25:45.320 las flavored lads, the ones with sauce and or seasoning, 0:25:45.720 --> 0:25:49.560 are sold in nine point five ounce bags and both 0:25:49.680 --> 0:25:55.119
