Another edition of Things.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
Guys you know him, you love him. My son Desmond
turned eighteen this this Wow, let's go, so comes downstairs.
The wife had gone picked up some donuts for him.
By the way, when you're fifty four, starting today with
donuts is bad?
Speaker 1 (00:25):
Does just make you tired? I don't feel good. You
feel like you don't want to be around it. I
don't want to be around.
Speaker 3 (00:31):
For someone who avoids carbs. God, I wish I could
just eat a cake donut right now. It'd be like
I'd rather have that than sex.
Speaker 2 (00:39):
No, I get it, and I would too, Uh, but
both I feel terrible after both of them. Now both
sex and you feel that. Would you cry after sex?
Do you cry after donuts?
Speaker 1 (00:49):
No? I cry after donuts. I laugh after.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
Se Okay, is this sex with a donut the donut hole, Yeah,
I just glaze that hole. But the the when they're
when they're donututs at the donutt Yeah, they're glazed, blazed
donut holes. Anyways, back to my eighteen year old, well,
I don't know what. Back to my eighteen year old.
So he comes down, you know or eating donuts and such,
(01:11):
and then we he does the gifts and I don't
know what's going on with your boys. I think I
don't think that your oldest who's at Alabama would dress
like this. I don't know how Miles dresses, but we
got him a pair of jeans, and man, it looked
like a parachute. I mean not the texture. I'm talking
about the size. Well, he wanted giant ones, very enormous.
(01:33):
Oh is that what's in style now? Wearing a huge
denim again? It's in style again. And he is eighteen.
And when I was nineteen, we wore gigantic jeans. Mom jeans,
well they didn't they didn't puff out at the FUPA.
So as as a nineteen year old, you know, that
was in style. Like the hip hop kids were wearing it,
(01:55):
and especially the rave kids were wearing gigantic jeans. And
I've seen, you know, looking around all right, that's made
a comeback, and it's I mean, everything comes back there.
Speaker 1 (02:06):
The girls are wearing big jeans for sure.
Speaker 3 (02:08):
You you stopped Christina one time and asked her about
her genes three years ago.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
Yeah, because I never started insane, jeans came back.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
I was like, right, because so the the elevator we
were in had a mirror, and when the door shut,
it revealed that Kat was staring down at the backside
of Christina because we could see his reflection, and then
he started making commentary on jeans.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
He was grinding his teeth, asked her about the denim
count and those genes, and then the next day he
was staring at your ass, ben asking me about the
denim back.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
Your golf fans. I think she appreciated the fashion observation. Yeah,
and georg rmoney, I think she turned you in.
Speaker 2 (02:46):
And by the way, you have update on the Georgio
Rmani story for later in the show.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
Yeah, maybe.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
Okay, So anyway, is that kind of like, oh my god, man,
those things are back then they're so big it doesn't
matter what sneakers you're wearing because they just golf it.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
Okay, so they're bell bottoms and they're huge, and is
it are they sagging off the buttocks and they need
to require a belt?
Speaker 2 (03:06):
They're so big and they don't even sag. Really, it's
like a tpe.
Speaker 3 (03:10):
Is it just like your neck is poking out of
like the waistband that it just looks like.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
Yes, yeah, it's huge.
Speaker 2 (03:18):
And so anyways, it's just funny because I used to
wear jeans like that when I was partying so hard
and so aimless and so like I'm standing out untill
five in the morning where it's the strobe lights.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
That's why I like I.
Speaker 3 (03:29):
I sometimes worry about my kids, and then I realized
they are than me, Like I was such a disaster
that you know, my kids are gonna be fine.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
They're gonna be fine.
Speaker 3 (03:40):
Kids are gonna be fine.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
In their song, yeads are gonna be fun.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
No, actually, AI, they're screwed yep, okay. And so the
other quick thing there was there was a time period
speaking of fashion or lack thereof, and probably two thousand
and eight, where the only thing I wore was a
plain colored American appareled T shirt. It was tribelind or
dual blend fifty to fifty blend. I probably had fifteen
(04:07):
just plain American apparel T shirt.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
I had gray. I had some light blue every single day.
That's all I wore. Have you guys seen the American
Apparel documentary on Netflix?
Speaker 1 (04:19):
Yes? No, what in the hell.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
First of all, I didn't even know if American apparel
still existed. I had to go just American American apparel,
that's all, okay, not American Eagle.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
No American apparel. Are you unfamiliar?
Speaker 3 (04:34):
They they were on top of the fashion world for
a while, man, like every teenager had to wear their stuff.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
Yeah, and they had a store here in Dallas, and
I went to it, and that's where I would go
buy my Tribelend or dual Blend shirts and I would
buy five at a time. But the whole marketing of
it was sexploitation of guys and girls that looked way
too young, Like when this is.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
Why you shop there.
Speaker 3 (04:56):
Yeah, they did this for the different marketing speaks to
different people.

Crombie and Fitch. Was that the one They didn't document
her on that one?
Speaker 2 (05:10):
Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah that was bad too. No, this
is way different. Like I'll give you an example. The
they interview people that worked for this guy, this Canadian guy,
and it was the whole idea was, hey, these are
like really plain kind of fashion statements. There there's no
logos on them or nothing, but they're and they're really comfortable.
But hey, we make them in America like that was
(05:30):
their whole deal. And dude, the very first they had
all these people that worked there, and the first ad
that they ran in a publication in LA had a
girl that looked like she was barely legal, wearing teeny
tiny shorts and her legs are wide open and it's
a crot shot and the ad says, we're now open
and so, and it was a horrible And then this
(05:51):
guy got disgraced and then he immediately went and worked
for Kanye. It's unbelievable, but it's just I was like, man,
I wore these shirts every day. I don't even know
if they exist anymore. I looked it up. You know
the T shirt brand Gilden. Yeah, they bought an Arctic
