Speaker 4 (02:20):
Jeff. I just wanted to comment to regarding what you're
saying about body odors. Yes, if you've noticed also on
your notice on TV, there's a lot of ads recently
for what's called full body theodors, and it's they talk
about that you don't have to bathe as says effective

(02:42):
for seventy two hours, which is is three days that
they're telling you you don't need to bathe a shower.
It protects you better than washing daily. And there wasn't
an article several months back. I believe it was in
Well Street Journal talking about this, that it is like

(03:05):
a climate change environmental action in that to save water
and to cut down on bathing a water usage. And
it's also gets tied into as far as staying even
in hotels. I travel quite a bit on business and

(03:28):
I've noticed as staying in three four star hotels they
do not change your sheets and towels on a daily basis.
A lot of them tell you have to request it.
But if you're staying for a day, two days, three days,
you won't have your sheets your towels change. And it

(03:51):
all goes back to it's an environmental climate things save
the water usage. And I think that that's a big
part of the what's going on today is that they're
telling us that it's uh an environmental thing to stop it.

Speaker 2 (04:11):
I agree, it's again you know you're dead on Steve.
It's under the guise of you know, climate change and
you know, a greener planet and blah blah blah. And
what's happening is people are you know, they stink and
you know things. I mean, this was one of the
great perks of going to an American hotel is you
would get clean sheets every day, clean towels every day.

(04:37):
To me, nothing beats the smell of a clean towel, really,
you know, in the morning whatever, you wash your face,
your shave, your you know, your you brush your teeth,
and oh that smell of a nice clean towel in
the morning. It smells great, you know. Or you come
out of the shower and there it is a nice, big,
you know, clean, you know, a great smelling, uh bath towel.

(04:59):
And and to me, it's just it's again, you're just
seeing our standard of living go down, our quality of
life constantly go down. And I got to ask you, Steve,
I don't know, maybe it's me, maybe it's my upbringing,
but I mean, you know, you're you know, you're right.
I see these commercials as well. You know, the full
body deodorant good for seventy two hours, you don't have

(05:21):
to shower. I mean, do you want to be around
somebody who doesn't smell good? And I don't just mean
a movie theater, you know, go to the grocery store,
you have to check out. You're like Oh my good god.
I mean, just get me out of here. I'm gonna die.
You know, the guy who's bagging the groceries, I mean
he stinks. I mean, you know your partner, you're at home.

(05:46):
I mean, do you want to be besides someone who
doesn't smell good? Do you want to be someone? Forgive me?
You're in bed with someone and they don't you know, honey,
when was the last time you showered? Oh, four days ago?
You know, I'm like, ugh, you know, I mean, Steve,
am I wrong? And so are these moonbats these liberals like,
but they don't mind, like forgive me, they don't mind

(06:08):
being intimate with someone who doesn't smell good like that.
This doesn't bother them. I mean, just you know, so
you want to keep reusing a towel that doesn't smell
good and that's dirty? You know, you want me to
be beside you and watching television or whatever we're doing
at night. And I got this, you know the you
know it stinks from your armpits, but hey, we're doing

(06:33):
it for the environment. Like after a while, don't liberals care?
Don't they have standards? Or am I missing something here?

Speaker 4 (06:43):
Steve? And it's and it is a push for a
that type of an environment. You know, people love to
go they talk about Europe, they go on the European trips,
and they of the uh the ambiance of Europe, and

(07:05):
that's what part of Europe was or is still is
against they do not. You go in some elevated in
a in a hotel or in a facility and in Europe,
and it does smell in there terribly from body odor.
And yet this is what people feel is a good

(07:28):
thing for us to do. They want to cut down
on the air conditioning, they want to cut down on anything. Again,
it goes back to a climate change.

Speaker 2 (07:39):
Steve, and Steve, I wish you were wrong, but you
are one thousand correct. I know when I go to Europe,
I notice it as well. By the way, there's official
statistics continental Europeans will maybe change. It depends. Every country
is slightly different, obviously, but they only change underwear about

(07:59):
once or twice, both men and women. For example, in France,
they average French person male or female will only bathe
or shower once a week, once a week. So their
standards of personal hygiene and cleanliness very different from ours.

(08:20):
And you're right. When I go to Europe. I do
notice the difference. There's a lot more body order there,
and that's something we used to know. I'm not saying
you don't meet the occasional person, but here it was like, no,
Americans smell great. You know. Americans are like clean fanatics.
Oh my god. They got a shower every day every day. Look,
just to give you an example, my dad was very clean.

(08:41):
My mom was very clean. But just to give you
an example, my dad and my mom would maybe shower
or bathe three times four times a week. I always,
my sister and I we always showered every day, right.
You know, Canada is like the United States, So every
day we showered, we showered, we showered. My parents thought
that was a little bit weird, like I mean initial,

(09:04):
I mean, they got used to it. Obviously they realized
everybody else did it. But they thought like geez, like
that's excessive, like by you know, because they still came
from Europe. So they're like, you know, hey, we bathe
quite a bit. We're bathing three times a week, you know,
even four times a week, that's a lot. But you
guys every day and we're like, well yeah, or you know,

(09:26):
sometimes I would change my socks twice a day, you know,
like when I would play sports or whatever, I'd take
it off and put on a fresh bear and my
mother said, like, wow, like in Europe, you don't you
don't do that. So I'm just saying, we used to
have such high standards of cleanliness, and now you're right,

(09:47):
We're just they're trying to make us more European in
the name of climate change. And I don't know about you,
but I don't want to be around someone who stinks. Hey,
call me crazy, call me to call me nuts. Six
