Speaker 1 (00:07):
Hello in his arts alone here.

Speaker 2 (00:09):
I just recently got back from a trip to Japan,
and I hate Japanese toilets. I'm sorry, and I need
to give you a hot, steamy take on them. Well,
but to the Bala glensa, let's get into it. I
went to Japan for the first time recently. I just
got back, had a great time, loved it. You know,

(00:30):
people were so courteous. People didn't actually really speak to
it all, which is kind of really lovely.

Speaker 3 (00:35):
You know.

Speaker 2 (00:35):
Food was good, the transport was good. Oh, the experiences
were good. And I went to Tokyo Disney, I went to Disneyland,
I went shopping in Harazuku.

Speaker 1 (00:45):
You know, I saw all the sites.

Speaker 2 (00:46):
I went to McDonald's and got a bigger maca is
what they say on the TV. Loved it, you know,
because I'm really into Mama FOODI so I love really
trying all different international foods like McDonald's in every country.
But anyway, we're great experiences and call temples and things.
But there's one thing that I didn't love in Japan.
And it's weird because everyone raves about it. They rave

(01:08):
about it. They said, Ah, if you checked out the
toilets in Japan. Oh, the toilets.

Speaker 1 (01:13):
Oh, you gotta love the toilets in Japan. Oh, they're amazing. No,
they're not.

Speaker 2 (01:19):
And the reason they're not is sure they have if
you haven't been to Japan or experienced the power of
a Japanese toilets, they have many different functions for you. Okay,
So one of the big famous ones is that they
have like the wash your bum, you know, or your
front bum.

Speaker 1 (01:34):
They can wash either side. You push a button and
goes sprays at you.

Speaker 2 (01:37):
Some of them play music while you're going to the toilet,
so if you're in a public restroom, no one can
hear you pissing in the cubicle next to you or
repping a giant fart. It plays music to block it out.
They self open when you walk in the room. The
lid opens like a hungry, hungry hippo ready to gulp
up whatever you have to serve. Lots of really unnecessary things,

(01:59):
and they're all plugged into the wall because you know,
they need power.

Speaker 1 (02:02):
For all these things.

Speaker 2 (02:03):
But the one thing out of all of those functions
of which I would not partake in any of them,
because I just I think you can over complicate something
sometimes they warm the seat for you, so like thirty
something degrees.

Speaker 1 (02:16):
Their seat is always warm.

Speaker 2 (02:18):
It just gives me the ick of going into a
bathroom after someone has used it, so like you just
instantly think that someone has been sitting down on that
seat taking a hot, steamy dump for the last thirty minutes.

Speaker 1 (02:28):
And now you're sitting in their pre warmed aura.

Speaker 2 (02:33):
And it just gave me the absolute ick wherever I went,
especially the public toilet restrooms, like the I kind of
got used to the one in the hotel, but the
public restrooms we go in there, someone leaves the cubicle
and you sit down on their pre warmed seat. It
was absolutely awful. I like my toilet seats cold, just
like I like my pillows cold. You know, you turn

(02:54):
to the cold side and it's like, oh, refreshing. I
want a cold toilet seat, so my butt feels refreshed.
So much so, the person I was traveling with, they
admitted to me that on the first night they hated
it so much that they would lift the toilet seat
and they just like hovered over the bowl because they
just didn't want to experience the warm toilet seat on

(03:17):
their butt cheeks.

Speaker 1 (03:19):
I hated it.

Speaker 2 (03:20):
I hated so much, and it's a real shame because
I had such a wonderful time in Japan. But the
thing is, I'm kind of lying to you in that
I have already experienced a warm toilet seat, but just
not in Japan. I recently was in Sydney and I
was staying there for a month and the bathroom in
the hotel had the warm toilet seat function and I

(03:42):
didn't like it then. I don't like it now. But
while I was there it was like the dead of winter,
and kind of towards the end I got a habit
before I walked to the theater of sitting on the
toilet seat to warm myself up because I was so cold.
So I mean, look, they might have their uses, but
I think public not for me. But hey, if you

(04:02):
love a Japanese toilet sit, good for you. There's more
of them for you. Don't get me started on the bathrooms. Hey,
if that's for you, I love it, But for me
probably not. So Yeah, if you know of any hotels
in Japan that have like Western bathrooms and toilets, slide
is my DMS. Anyway, may your butts be cold and
your attitudes be bright.

Speaker 1 (04:28):
The sidebox. Oh it's a sexy sapbox.

Speaker 2 (04:37):
It's a beautiful tight thirty that I give to you
anyone of the listeners, or even if you don't listen,
I don't really care, but I'm gifting you thirty seconds
of my airtime to talk to the people of Concealed
and the palate cleanser, to sprink whatever you want, as
you know, it can be to advertise, to show, to
promo something, to read, a poem, to send in your uber.

(05:00):
I don't really mind, but it's thirty seconds from me
to you, and don't forget. If you want to send
in your own soapbox segment, jump on into the socials
Concealed with ut simone up on Instagram and TikTok. There's
a link in there for you to send in a
voice note, or if you don't know how to do that,
jump into the show notes and you can see the
link there to send in your voice note. Now, what
have we got here today? I am ready to send

(05:21):
me a soapbox.

Speaker 1 (05:22):
Let's go.

Speaker 3 (05:23):
It's Josh here. I've got a brand new TikTok that
I would love to shamelessly, shamelessly advertise. It's called Real
Chip Star. It's going to follow me as I leave
to go to London to try and get an interview
with the Gallagher Brothers from a Oasis, that classic nineties band.
They're back and better than ever. And even if I

(05:43):
don't get it, who cares. There's going to be some
weird dancing and some fun content. Maybe me crying at
a gig. Who knows, Real chip.

Speaker 2 (05:52):
Star, Real Chipstar, Real Chipstar. I don't know what you say,
and I don't really understand any of that, but I
think that's really beautiful that you have a goal in
life and that you want to go out and go
to an oasis or something like that.

Speaker 1 (06:08):
I think that's beautiful.

Speaker 2 (06:09):
I love to support people that have ambitions and goals
and I really want to get outside of themselves, and
I think it's really great that you're doing that and
leaving the country.

Speaker 4 (06:16):
Goodbye concealed Weapons.

Speaker 2 (06:29):
Okay, we're back with another concealed weapon for you. It
is a hack from a hack, and that hack is
me indeed. And the tip I want to give you,
my little secret, is if you're short on time and
you are someone that does like to indulge in a
bit of mackiage, a bit of rouge, a bit of
delusional across your face.

Speaker 1 (06:49):
Well, the little trick.

Speaker 2 (06:50):
That I have when I'm getting ready and I need
to save some time is I just don't dry brows on.
So this is probably not applicable to most people. Listen
unless you feel like shaving your eyebrows off. But if
you remove anything in your makeup routine that requires symmetry, Babes,
you can smash that out in no time. So if

(07:11):
you ever see me without eyebrows on, or even if
you see me with, I like to do a little
evil queen eyebrow very thin and skinny, and they look
like a roller coaster with the ups and downs, because
they can look a bit wonky, you know, they can
look a little bit off kilter, a little bit quizzical.
That's all fine, so they don't have to be symmetrical.
So if you ever see me with my quizzical evil

(07:32):
woman eyebrows or a lack of an eyebrow, that's because
I'm either running out of time, or sometimes it is
because I want to look a certain way. But most
of the time it is just a timesaver for any
avid viewers of drag Race, which you know I was
on many moons ago. You will notice that I think
I only have eyebrows twice in the entire season of

(07:56):
Drag Race. Once on my entrance look when I write,
because I could have as many hours as I wanted
to get ready in the hotel room before I got there,
and another one when I was catday night and I
had to have eyebrows. Oh and when I was bindi
Irwin as well, because she does have eyebrows unfortunately. So
on Drag Race, we only had maximum of like an
hour hour and a half to get into full drag.

(08:19):
When I say full drag, I mean you're a boy
and then you're fully dressed walking down the runway with
your nails, your costume, you're padding your hips, your corset,
your wig, your lashes, and all your makeup. So an
hour and a half. It normally takes me two to
four hours to get ready, let alone fully ready to go.
And on top of that, when you are getting ready

(08:40):
on Drag Race, you also have to have conversations around
the room where they're filming you and asking questions, so
you really you really have to multitask because while you're
trying to draw your lips on someone's asking you about
your trauma and you go, oh, yes, it was a
really horrible thing that happened to me when I was
a child. Anyway, can you just stop? I need to
draw my lips on. It is an art. It is crazy.

(09:01):
Luckily though, they only film me for like the first
half hour of getting ready, and then they'll go away
and you go in cone of silence for another forty
five minutes, and then the cameras come back in and
they film the rest of you getting ready. So that
middle section is the time and you can really really
get it done. But anyway, very scary. Don't want to

(09:22):
do that again with that amount of time because.

Speaker 1 (09:25):
I like to get ready. It's my glamorous time. It's
when I get to be by myself. I get to
sent to myself.

Speaker 2 (09:30):
I get to think about what I'm going to do
for the day, maybe a funny joke that I might
come up with. I might watch a little television show,
lot a candle. It's a whole process. And when that
is completely uplifted and in front of a camera.

Speaker 1 (09:44):
There's a lot going on. Babes.

Speaker 2 (09:45):
But if I ever do get to do another drag race,
I need to make a mental note to do someone
that doesn't have eyebrows. Cynthia Revo me, Cynthia Rivo. I
could be Alpha Ba. Well no, you have to be
Cynthia or Reliebo.

Speaker 1 (10:02):
Look.

Speaker 2 (10:02):
I'll be working on it anyway. But a little hack
for you is shave your eyebrows off. You'll have so
much more time in your day to do whatever you want.
All right, everyone, all my beautiful listeners. I have a
little bit of a community service announcement slash requests slash
plead for help for all of you, because it was
recently brought to my attention that if you jump onto

(10:24):
the Conceal without some own podcast page, whether that's Spotify
or whether that's Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts,
they have a section that says suggests other podcasts that
you may like to listen to. And while you're there,
of course I want you to go look now and
see what is sitting there. But before you do that,
just makesure you click five stars please, because I would
like the review.

Speaker 1 (10:43):
Thank you.

Speaker 2 (10:43):
I do need the attention. But the podcast that was
pointed out to me that was sitting there was the
Better Blokes Podcast. And this is two men saying menly things,
a very masculine alpha man, two.

Speaker 5 (10:59):
Blokes just having normals, just two wis just and I
was talking about alf and giving you tips for them,
you know, for all their female listeners, apparently on how
they can better navigate a relationship with a bloke.

Speaker 2 (11:11):
And look, there's two questions and two facets to this
that I'm a little bit worried about. First one is
which of you guys is also listening to this, because
it would not show up unless some of you were listening.
So I just want to know, be honest if you
are listening, because if you are, I feel like I'm
not particularly catering to you because I'm you know, maybe

(11:35):
you like the King and y Dang, you like a
little bit of go and a little bit of here
another bikes, So I don't know if I'm not catering.

Speaker 1 (11:42):
That is a bit of an issue. But also who
is this?

Speaker 2 (11:45):
Who's spying on me? I think there's some like people
spying on me, or maybe some like really de l
like men you know, who are secretly just think I
wanting to listen to. Maybe it's because we had Mason
Cox on the show. I don't know, maybe we actually
trick some of them to come over and listen, and
they got hooked. So if you are like a bloke
and you're listening, Hi, hopeing a good time. Glad to

(12:07):
have you here. I'm sure there's so many things that
you love thinking about and keep them in your head, okay,
because I don't want to hear them. So there's obviously
a portion of an audience that really love alpha content.
So I thought I would try and provide some blowkish
content for the people that clearly love it, because it's
apparently a podcast you may like to listen to, blokes.

Speaker 1 (12:29):
Okay, Hello, well, welcome to the Palate Cleanser.

Speaker 2 (12:35):
It's me Simon here, and oh, I tell you what
babes Yep, chicky babes. You know they're just out there
and you know they look pretty good. But sometimes they
asked me too many questions and you know, you know,
chicky babes should be ogled and not listen to.

Speaker 1 (12:57):
So if you're a chicky barbe about the y bit
so I can lick it concealed without.

Speaker 2 (13:06):
Simone is experiencing some technical difficulties.

Speaker 1 (13:10):
We'll be back in just a moment.

Speaker 5 (13:14):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (13:15):
That reminds me of when I I have a very
estranged relationship with my biological father, and there was a
really like minute moment during my teenage years where we
tried to reconnect and try and see if there was
some relationship that could be fostered, and I visited. He
used to call me like once a month, and his
first question every single time was like, you got any

(13:38):
chicky babes in you laugh?

Speaker 1 (13:39):
Yet? Any chicky babes?

Speaker 2 (13:40):
And I'm like, fifteen, for lack of a better term,
I can say this bag and it's clearly obvious, and
he's like, yeah, you got any chicky babes?

Speaker 1 (13:49):
What the fuck? I'm sorry?

Speaker 2 (13:52):
Uh yuck.

Speaker 3 (13:53):
Oh.

Speaker 2 (13:53):
It also reminds me of I once had a driving instructor,
and this is the reason why I didn't get my
license until I was twenty three, because I got like
so so traumatized from this bloke that was teaching me
to drive. And he would make me like drive past
like schools and like the girls and be like, yeah,
check out those hotties.

Speaker 1 (14:14):
Also, I'm like, am I driving a ride?

Speaker 2 (14:15):
What's going on?

Speaker 1 (14:16):
Read the rope bikes? Not?

Speaker 2 (14:20):
I'd run things like you or wants to be like
you anyway, if you like that type of content. I
just gave it to you, Sam. You're welcome.
