Episode Transcript

(00:00):
Have you been recording the whole time?
Oh, it's wonderful, you. Gotta let a bitch.
No, Oh no, I need to know when Ihave to behave.
That's the new intro, though. But I'm glad we did that.
Yeah. Oh.
Lord. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

(00:22):
Was that goofy? Is that goofy?
OK, I guess you can turn off when you get started.
Is it recording on the phone? It is recording on the phone.
It's recording everywhere. Great, so I got all that.
So I got all of my stupidness. Absolutely wild.

(00:46):
Well, I guess I'll clap us in again.
Yeah. Ready, 321.
Hi everybody. That's the intro.
My God, what a. You can see us now, Hi.
What a beautiful way. Just what a beautiful chocolate

(01:08):
man. Oh my God, just kicking us off
so strongly. We don't have to put that in
there. It's fine.
You I mean. I keep it in.
And then it cuts too, and that'sthe intro.
And that's the intro. That's the intro, yeah.
Absolutely wild. Good God.
Oh my God. Hi everybody, I'm Kelana Blue

(01:29):
and I'm Skittles and this is season 2 of the Mixed Matched
podcast, now available in HD video.
Honey 60 frames per second. Who?
Who can't even count that high? Not me.
I we know 5617837, yeah. You just got to, you know, keep
it fresh. You got to keep it fresh.

(01:50):
And I thought I was being cute earlier.
Like I said, putting this plant here to be all scenic and
ambience. I can't see you what?
Kind of plant is this? It's a big one.
Like I said earlier, and to the thick of it.
And now that she's. Just you need a flatter, taller

(02:10):
plant. I think I'm, I think we'll go
with a flatter plant next time. Yeah, stay tuned.
Don't you have more? Plants.
The plant will change every episode.
Great. We'll just, we'll just rotate
through my house plants and justhave a different center piece of
tool every time. That's much more economical than
the thought of changing the the chairs every episode.
I well just different slip covers.

(02:30):
The slip covers are more expensive.
Than you want them to be listen yeah they really are for no
reason we're. Going to learn how to make our
own slip covers. You sewed that.
I said what the slip cover? I said we have to learn how to
how to learn. I thought she said we learned.
I said who learned? I did not make a single thing

(02:50):
I'm wearing unless you count theglue poison from putting all of
the well, yes, zipper heads on this blazer that does count.
Yes it does. Yes, in an unventilated room.
New drag name, Unventilated room.
Anyways, we'll try and be a little bit more cohesive for

(03:11):
this season for editing purposes, but no promises
because you know how we are. No comment.
Quiet. Cohesive.
See, that's the great. That's the great thing about it
being quiet. Now you can just look at
Skittle's face. Yikes.
There's no studio audience. It's just.
Video audience Crickets. Just you crickets.

(03:31):
Crickets. Just DJ drag husband.
And I don't say much not. Laughing at our jokes.
No, it's just silence over there.
Yeah. Anyway, I wonder how literally
this leaf is in the. I wonder how many little girls
Trixie and Kacchi has got. You can hear girls laughing in
the back of the pot. It's both of their assistants I
think. But.
I can see you now I. Ridiculous.

(03:54):
Welcome back for Season 2. You know us, you know our
shenanigans. Yeah, I guess we can dive right
in with our first segment and we're going to start it off with
Kelana's got a question cause Kelana do be having.
Questions This one for a second.Right.
I have been holding this in not for weeks.

(04:15):
Oh, since like the end of July, like we had just finished.
And she said I've got a question.
I literally was like, I have theperfect question that we just
have to wait for Season 2 because I feel like it's perfect
for us as we, you don't become elder millennials, you know?
And so Colada's question today is what is your most boomer take

(04:43):
as a millennial? Like my most boomer take as a
millennial is get rid of those God damn self checkouts.
Please, please get rid of a self.
Checkout we have very different.Feelings, I am.
So listen. If there were enough self
checkouts open, yes, that would be one thing.
And also if they would adjust the sensitivity so that you

(05:04):
wouldn't be stopped every other love and.
If it was not 4 self checkouts for every 100 people in line, I
would be OK with that. Where are you shopping?
I mean wherever. Has it doesn't sound like the
Kroger's. Oh, I don't.
Maybe the Kroger's they figured out self checkout.
I was talking about Winn-dixie, but I wasn't going to say that
I'm. Surprised Winn-dixie has self

(05:25):
checkout. Sometimes they only got three of
them. Kroger has no.
Registers. Open.
Kroger has 6 self checkouts on each side of the and they both
had they're both open most days.Yeah, and then they have an
attendant at least. Once I should go to the Kroger.
Now, I will say, Kroger, you need to get rid of the ones with
the belt. That's not it.

(05:46):
Oh, well, yeah, the belts break and they are too sensitive and
then they don't work. Give me the rotating thing with
the bags and just let me bag it on myself.
I I hate the also, you just put it on the belt and then it's all
at the end of the belt and they don't have a bag there.
So then you got to. Yeah.
And if you have too many things,the belt locks and it's like you
have too many items down there, you need to go bag them.

(06:07):
It's like, sorry you can stop scanning now and go bag your
shit. Literally literally, it's like
it's like please clear, please clear the bagging area.
Yeah, I love self checkout, but also I could probably be like
greatest race style like sent into any Kroger and I will find
whatever you need. I have that whole Kroger

(06:29):
memorized and so for me it. What are you going to do when
they change the layout? They did change the layout of
the Auburn 1 and I figured it out.
I remember when they changed thelayout of the Winn-dixie for the
first time, I was like what is this witchcraft?
Well, and when I go to the TigerTown Kroger, it's different,
different and not different likebecause they're.

(06:49):
Right there beside each other, they would be the same.
You know how many are like some Walmart?
You're like, oh, they flipped it.
It's not that it's it's just diff.
No baby, it's just different. Incorrect.
Bread is not on AL 4, it is now on AL 12 all.
The way on the other side of thebuilding next to stuff that it
shouldn't be next to makes no sense.
Let's. Talk about that.
No, I'm just, we don't have to get on that tangent.

(07:09):
We don't. Have to.
That's a whole episode. That's a whole episode.
How? Should grocery stores be
organized right? What is my?
Your biggest boomer tank? Oh, that's hard.
She's got a lot of them, apparently.
That's no like I, I'm, I just think I have none of them.
Oh. I don't think I I'm trying to

(07:30):
think. Do I need to pull up a?
List. I do think a list would be
interesting out of this out of the context of this
conversation. I just want to know what other
people on the. Do a quick Google.
But also, I don't know if this is boomer culture, but I do.
This is going to be an opinion. I asked somebody who has been a

(07:52):
tipped employee for most of my career and somebody who has
tipped employees. I do think tipping has gotten
out of hand. We're tipping things that don't
need to be tipped and have. Not been tipped?
And what it is, is it's the business owners setting up the
point of sales. They see the tipping check box
like when you're going through all your settings and setting
everything up in the account creation and they're like, why

(08:15):
not? We can put tips and they just
turn it on. And not everything needs tips.
What I do, I work in the food service.
That's usually a tipped industry, right?
So we have tips turned on. I shouldn't be asking for tips
when I'm checking out when I do my design service.
I don't have that turned on you.Don't need.
Oh yeah, no. If you would like to give me
some extra dollars, I'll take them, but like, you're gonna pay

(08:37):
what you negotiated and what my prices are for my services.
That's been a big topic on TikTok lately, yeah.
Oh, I know. Tipping culture for people like
hair stylists and tattoo artistsand people of the like.
Like should you tip a photographer at your wedding or
should the price that they quoteyou just be the price that they

(08:58):
get paid? The price they quote you should
be what you pay. See, that's what I.
Said I think services like that,as somebody who is a visual
artist, I, I sell photography, Isell graphic design.
I don't want people I people should just know the price and I
should know my worth. I charge what I think I'm worth
and we. Found out last season you got to
be charge her more for photography.

(09:21):
But like, I feel like if somebody thinks that I'm worth
more or maybe like, they get their photos and they're like,
wow, you did a really good job. My cash up is available.
You can find it, right? Or you can, you know, like, if
you're feeling extra generous. Yeah.
And I mean, I've tipped. I will say this is a bad.
Here we go. I can't go a single episode
without mentioning Cindy. Cindy is who cuts my hair.

(09:43):
I don't always tip her in money,but like sometimes I bring her
like a coffee, OK, but I also know her coffee order honestly,
but I feel like you can do that with your hairstyle.
It's because you probably have you should be.
You know, you should be. Don't just well, you know any
hair. You know how straight men and
Great Clips, some of these men, they go in there like I need
your #3 guard and. That's it, That's all.

(10:03):
And that's all they need. No, I have.
I have always. I'll bring a treat and sometimes
I'll tip like if I just get my hair cut, maybe not a tip, but
like if if we're going to spend 3 hours in the chair and she's
going to dye my hair, I'll throwher some dollars.
Yeah. Or a Red Bull.
If we, if we've been there for aminute, but also at the same
time charge me for your time, yes.

(10:24):
You know, if you know that I'm getting a cut, a color and all
that and you know it's going to take 3 hours, then you need to
obviously charge me for those three hours of service. 100%
Same with a tattoo artist. Yeah, like I may tip you a
little bit, but I'm not about togo crazy, especially if I just
spent 203 hundred $400.00 on a piece.
Yeah. What do you want me to tip you

(10:45):
on top of that prices. No, just charge me more.
I'm sorry. That's another sticky one 'cause
I'm I'm also friends with my tattoo.
Artist so I also coffee. I just bring him coffee.
And snacks. And that's what happens when
it's the coffee shop and the hair salon and the tattoo shop,
all of the same strips I have. A warped perspective on that,

(11:06):
that little bit. No, I obviously tips are for if
you do a good job and we should still do that.
But I do think like some things that are like exclusively
counter service, why are we doing that?
Like if I walk up to the counterand I order and I have to grab
my food from you and go sit down, I'm probably not going to

(11:27):
tip you. Now, if you've come across my
table and checked on me or whatever, I'll throw a few
dollars down on the table. I also don't understand some of
the places where everything is like prepackaged and they still
want to tip. Girl, don't even.
You handed me a sandwich that you didn't make.
And it was like, or you handed me some food that all you did
was throw it in the microwave. Yeah.

(11:48):
No thank you. No thank you.
So any other boomer tanks? My really one is self checkout.
That's really my only boomer. Tank self checkout.
Well I feel like introverts really do love a self checkout.
I'm so much. Faster than I ever they're going
to have on now I can understand being faster.
Well the problem is, is when I when I buy for the coffee shop,
it doesn't matter. I have to talk to an attendant

(12:09):
because I have to have my sale tax exempted.
So I have I and then it's the whole chore because they have
to, they always come over and I'm like, I need to tax exempt
it. And then they always walk
towards the register like they can do it from there.
You can't. You can't.
And it's the same bitches every time.
You have to go to your little station and you have to transfer

(12:30):
it. And then I that's.
Awful at best at the Masters. There's got to be a better way.
I well, you think that they would just bake it into the
original? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And then you have to fill out a form.
Kroger makes you fill out a formevery time.
Every time. It's like a you don't.
Have like a little collar. It's just you can just be like.
Baby no. Do you think the state of
Alabama has something unique andand useful?

(12:50):
Like I meant like Kroger, like the no facility, no like in
there, no whatever. I do some of my other
wholesalers though. The you upload your tax
exemption license and like they will until it expires like you
just are tax exemption anything that is see.
That's. Like when I buy my cups and my

(13:10):
syrup and stuff. Yeah, I don't know, whatever.
That's really nuanced. Did you find a list?
I mean, I found a couple you know on Reddit.
Well, we all know. We all know my boomer take on
music 'cause I miss real instruments.
Bring back real. Yes, we were talking about that
when we were. Talking about that when?
We were watching the GAGAS Coachella set because she tours
with a a real band. Real band.
Yeah, yeah. And so I used to tour was like

(13:32):
Bring Back Real, used to tour with backup singers.
I think she gets expensive. It is expensive.
It gets expensive when you have to pay real musicians both
playing and singing. Yes, 'cause they a lot of times
are in a union. Yeah.
And they have like a set rate that they have to get paid.
Well, she's been touring with some of the same band members
for a while, so I don't know. It's cool, yeah.

(13:54):
What do we have over there? DJ, Drag husband.
Let's see, the first one I came across was I'm tired of making
an account for every app that I have to download now.
That is, that is something you can't even no, no, no trial the.
App Another thing though is why I don't need a app for
everything. Yes like I don't need a app for

(14:14):
Home Depot. I don't need a app for subway.
I don't need a app for McDonald's.
I don't I don't need a app for everything it like.
Or if you really are using the app a lot, that's cool.
Your mobile website should be just as robust.
Absolutely yes. And they're not doing that
because they want you to use the.
App they want you to download the.
App but all the app is. Easier.

(14:34):
I really hate having to make an account, just like when I
download a new app and I just want to see, like, is this app
even gonna work for me? Yes, I have to make a whole
account. And then you find out two days
later, you don't like this calendar app you wanted to try.
Oh, you're gonna get newsletters?
Worse. You're gonna get newsletters
from this company for the rest of your life.
And that's why, yeah, I have an e-mail address that's just for,

(14:56):
yeah, accounts like that. Like if I don't know if I want
the app or not real quick, I'll punch in this fake e-mail.
Well, not really, I guess. Like a trash e-mail.
Yeah, they're always, because they're going to sell that
information anyway and somebody's going to get that
e-mail and they're going to fillit up with spam.
And Gmail is really good about filtering out the spam thing,
but. I I've been trying to actively
unsubscribe from stuff too. Oh yeah, and it's Gmail does a

(15:19):
really good job of unsubscribingfor you.
Good. Like if you don't interact with
the e-mail, it's like we've noticed you've not been
interacting. Would you like to unsubscribe?
And I'm like, yeah, unsubscribe.Fuck that shit.
Love any other boomer tags? I miss buttons.
Physical buttons. Why does everything have to be
especially? In a car I do.
Especially in a car. I miss the click.

(15:41):
And I do like, I do like my Apple car play for like a road
trip situation, but mostly because Toyota has the worst
touchscreen interface on the planet and Apple's is a little
bit better. But I do miss real.
Buttons. I do love being able to tell
Google to turn everything on though.
That is really nice, yeah. Yes, I do like real buttons.

(16:05):
There's two more probably that Iwant appliances, but products in
general are not built to last anymore.
Plan obsolescence. Obsolescence is a nightmare.
It is the worst. Megan and I were just talking
about that because she just bought a brand new double oven
stuff. The bottom oven quit working.
Yeah. Has had it for a week.
Yeah, a week. Yeah.

(16:25):
And the bottom oven doesn't work.
Isn't it crazy? You know they when they forced
us all to This is going to be tinfoil half when they forced us
all to get rid of incandescent bulbs and they made us all
switch to the halogen and the. Fluorescence, you know.
That they were like an LED bulb can last 20-30 years, no?
No, it can't. I have never.

(16:47):
Had some of them die, some of them die.
Six months, two months. I'm like, well, what did I pay
all that money for then? Right.
Yeah, that was real southern a scam.
A scam. What's the last Boomer take?
Early morning is for quiet, I'm sorry.
Early morning is first. Of all, some Auburn
neighborhoods do still have noise ordinances.

(17:07):
How is that a boomer take? I thought that's just like.
It sounds like they moved to thebig city and they shouldn't have
listen. When you go, when we travel to
New York, we have to make sure we are a certain number of
string, loose air so you can't hear anything.
Bring them loops and. If you are like under 7 floors,
you're going to hear all of thatshit.
Yeah, no, put me 1215 feet in there.

(17:29):
One more, one more. Oh.
Lord, oh, he found one more. What's the last one?
Fries come with the burger. Liz says why are you charging me
a burger and then charging me extra for fries?
Or. Here's the thing.
I can understand it coming with chips.
And upgrading. You wanted to sell them on a
cart? Why is the burger by itself $15
and the fries are 5? Because it's got bacon jam on

(17:49):
it. Die whatever.
Bring back and garlic aioli. Yeah, bring back affordable
burgers. I don't want $15.00 for a single
burger. My mom.
I got dinner with my mom for herbirthday and she was like I went
to five guys for the first time girl like a couple years.
She was like why was it $50.00 for two burgers Dead ass 2.

(18:15):
She was like we got 5 burgers and we split an order of fries.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, I went like, you know, you
used to go to like burger fry and like the soda is $4.
OK that's my boomer take. Why is a soda 4 bucks when I
know it don't cost? Me and the gas station is still
selling the 44 oz ones for 80. Cents 9 cent, baby.

(18:36):
Go get my big Gulp, stupid. Oh, my God.
Oh, those are great boomer takes.
Why? Oh my God, that was great.
That was really good. All right, Oh, it's OK.
We can take a break because we can edit this out.
I set it down so slowly and we can come back so slowly.

(18:59):
Oh, I forgot that was vodka. No, keep it.
I ran out of I ran out of whiskey's.
So. So that's Kelowna's question.
So do you want to take a break or do you want to roll?
Let's roll through. Roll through, baby.
It's time for our hot takes. Love that.
Yeah, if you thought the you thought the Kelowna's got a

(19:19):
question. Got us.
Going this hot takes come from was it when we did our country
episode? No, I just have this feeling.
OHK OK, OK, introduce, Introduceour hot takes.
Alright, so let's go some hot takes.
Let's talk about pre versus post911 music, but specifically
we're going to start. We started with.
Sleep bad Country music, folk music.

(19:40):
There's a distinct shift in tonepre post 9/11.
But then we were talking and we think, honestly, all music
changed after 911. All of it because we we started
with country music. And as we got to, well, as I got
to thinking about it, I sent hera text and I was like, it was
really everything. Yeah, like really.
All music changed post 911. It was, it's really weird.

(20:04):
So pre 911 in country music specifically, but also like hip
hop and rap and everything like that, it was very much this idea
of telling a. Story, storytelling, which is
very much a huge part of music. Yeah, yeah.
And it very much had like. Something behind it like more
soul, I guess because it had a story to it.

(20:27):
And then post 9/11 music is likecountry music especially.
It's like I lost my wife, I lostmy truck, I lost my dog and now
I'm drunk. There's like.
Five things you're allowed to talk about is pop music is the
same. We're not making on country like
country music is like my beer, my truck, my dog, my girl,
whether she's you are dating her, did date her, married her,

(20:48):
left her, cheated on her. That's she cheated on you.
Yeah. And then sports.
Yeah. Your country patriotism, your
patriotism and then patriotism. Pop music is like I'm at the
lowest point of my life or I can't pay the rent.
So I'm going to party like I'm never going to party.
Again, I'm broke, but I'm going to use someone to party and ball
out anyway. That's so pop music right now.
Yeah, yeah. Yeah, or like, tonight is the

(21:09):
night. Oh.
Which is different than I every fucking song.
Tonight is the night, but every fucking song, Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I do miss a little bit. Of just like sex.
Well, and then not only we can go one step further, not only
was it did it change with 911, but it also has changed with
TikTok Yep, it's gotten shorter.Yes, bring back the bridge back

(21:32):
bridges. That's our boomer take.
Bring back a bridge. Is it a boomer take to want
songs to be more than 90 seconds?
Well, you know, we were. Who's that?
I was talking to Megan and she had.
The technology, we're not recording these things on a
gramophone. Anymore right?
She was like, I don't read news articles anymore because they
take 2 to 3 minutes to read. She was like, it's not like an

(21:53):
article. She wants it like to be like an
in depth like filled with information.
I was like, people aren't going to read a 10 minute article
anymore. They're just not.
I love a. 40 minute article. I love a 40 minute article, but
for the general consumer out there, they want the news 2
minutes or less. They need to know what's

(22:14):
happening, what's going on. They want to move on.
Vacation of the rest of the. Our attention spans are just.
Yeah, dwindling. Yeah.
Well, when you go to concerts, people only sing for the 30
seconds that is the viral TikTok.
Clip and that has ruined music since oh, that was a.
Resale for Atlanta was the cheapest ticket was $790.00.

(22:36):
For the presale we tried. To I did it for shitsink it
goes. I know I don't have the money, I
just wanted to see how ridiculous it got.
What number were you in the queue?
I did not do it on the Friday because that Friday I was busy.
I did it on Saturday so all the good shit was already gone.
Me and. General sale?
I've already missed general saletoo, right?
Yeah, that was the Friday. Yeah, we were in.

(22:56):
Me and Amanda had logged on like15 or probably like 20 minutes
before. Yeah.
And we were finally in the queue.
Finally in the queue. We were like 600 people deep.
It took about 3 minutes to get to our number.
Yeah. And by that time, 90% of it was
already up for resale. Yep, I hate that it's so broken.

(23:19):
I wish they could figure out a way to fix that like there's
got. I mean when I did.
Hot take. Here's the T.
They don't. Ticketmaster's trash set it on
fire. Well, they don't want.
To. They don't want to fix it
because. They get the money, the
Commission. Well, you know Ticketmaster owns
almost all of the ticketing, andalmost all venues are
Ticketmaster venues. You know Ticketmaster's parent

(23:40):
company is Live Nation, and guess who finances all the
tours? Live Nation, Yeah, it's a yeah.
Yeah, it's a conglom. Win, win, win, win, win.
Except for us, yeah. Any opinions expressed on this
podcast are not those of my employees.
We can cut this part. No, fuck you Live Nation and
keep it in. But yeah, pre 911, like we

(24:02):
talked about, you had storytelling.
It felt a little bit more authentic too.
Honestly, the the artists were usually like, if they weren't
completely writing their own stuff, they were helping write
and it was inspired by things they'd actually gone through.
People were talking about their lives and experiences and now
songs are sold to artists and are inauthentic.

(24:24):
To their real experiences made with that artist in mind.
And then sometimes they have shopped around or sometimes it.
Yeah. And then they're like, I don't
know if I want that. And so that they'll sell it to
somebody else. Yep.
Quickly. And there's some of your
favorite artists. That's how they got their start.
Gaga used to be a songwriter. Ke$ha used to be a songwriter.
Sia used to be a songwriter. Yeah, Ke$ha's done a lot of

(24:45):
stuff that she's not even credited on.
Yep. Oh, she's credited now, but the
right round, the re release, theright round with what does this
say? Is it Florida or is it that's
Florida, right? Yeah, I think so, yeah.
She was originally not credited because that was before she was
a well known artist. So she just was paid like a day
rate to come in and do those backing vocals.

(25:07):
And it wasn't until after she blew up, everyone was like,
isn't that Ke$ha? And it was.
And it was. And it was, I think, another
thing with the music. She's credited now because I
played it at a drag show and hername's in.
The title good, good for I'm glad she got her coin.
Well, I remember she did an interview.
She was like, I remember being in the dollar store buying like
cans of soup because I wasn't making any money, hearing right

(25:29):
round everywhere. And she's like, no, I got paid
my day rate, which was like, like, you know, 100 and 200
bucks saying yeah, insane. Yeah.
I think country music post 911 also shifted to be more poppy.
Oh yeah, like 100% more generic A.
Lot of people don't want to talkabout it, but Pop has become

(25:50):
like the vessel for, like, Discovery.
Yeah. And so everything sounds pop
now. Poppy.
Everything. Even the hip hop, even the rap,
well now you've also got that hybrid like country rap.
Girl, don't even get me started with that.
And I know that the I know that the labels want you to like,

(26:12):
blend genre so you have a wider audience.
And that's why sometimes you'll get a feature on an album that
doesn't make any sense. Yeah.
Yeah. Jewels and drugs did not need to
be on that album. I agree.
I know Aaron is Aaron. Aaron is jewels, and Aaron love
that song. Yeah.
Yes, yes I am. Jews put that honey on that
pancake. I love honey on a pancake I

(26:33):
have. Never, I think.
Have you ever put butter on a pop tart?
Sorry. I think Jewels and Drugs Low Key
was supposed to be a Beyoncé feature.
I think it sounds the lyrics, ifyou listen to it, sort of sound
like they're in the chorus part,sound like something that played
out in the telephone video. You want a hot take?
What's that? They're going to come for me.

(26:57):
Here we go. I don't like it when Beyoncé
raps. I'm going to keep my mouth shut.
It's not. It's not because I disagree with
you. It is because they'll hate me
more. Singer.
I don't like it. She was a rap stunning singer.
And she's a great dancer of us God.
A great live performer. I don't enjoy her raps.

(27:20):
They're not great. Well.
Yeah, that's a choice. Anyway, OK, here's something
that's going to get me cancelledif we.
Keep it in, she's coming for you.
This time, keep it in parents. The beehive.
They're already on the way. I'm going to get shot.
You know how people hate Taylor Swift?
Now there's a I don't know if you've seen it, but there's a
lot of Taylor Swift hate lately.Yeah, for the last like couple

(27:41):
years. She's on the side of MAGA and
she's like a billionaire that she claims that she likes the
planet, but she doesn't like theplanet because she flies private
everywhere and blah, blah, blah.I would, if I was her, I would
fly private everywhere too. Anyway, Yeah, but they're like,
there's no such thing as ethicalbillionaire blah, blah, blah.
And so everybody's like dumping on Taylor Swift, but nobody

(28:03):
wants to dump on Beyoncé. They're both.
Beyoncé is they're both billionaires, is doing the same
thing. Taylor Swift is absolutely the
same thing. They are both capitalists.
Yep. Yeah.
And Beyoncé was just at a table with Ivanka Trump, and they was
all eaten also. And.
Beyoncé took it a step further. She has her own record label
with her husband. She self publishes.
Everything to do that now to make money.

(28:24):
You know, well, yes, I Gaga, I know you're not listening, but
all of that ditch inner scope, self publish.
You can do it babes. If there's anybody that should
self publish, it should be good.I'm so tired of her albums
getting like shut down or not. Like we should have gotten the
visual album for our pop Justicefor our pop, country music,

(28:46):
country music. This is funny because I wrote
down we were talking about This is why people got mad about
Beyoncé doing country music is because they don't even know
what country music. Is.
Well, no, they don't, because obviously.
They think it's pop music. They all think it's got this
popification or whatever. And it can only talk about those
five things. What and original country music

(29:08):
founded by African Americans? All of your favorite music
genres were invented by. All of your favorite music that
you listen. To zoom in on that one, write
that down. Thanks, Sister Rosetta Thorpe.
Yeah. You want you, you glad you have
rock'n'roll? You can thank Sister Rosetta
Thorpe and her gospel music playing the damn electric
guitar. Yeah.
And her riffs. And people heard that and were

(29:30):
like, yeah. Oh, I like that.
How? That's how rock'n'roll.
Country music. Folk music.
It's all yeah. Thank a black woman.
Yeah, you're welcome. And that's the episode.
And that's the episode. Oh, no, my iPad turned off
again. It's OK.
I got to turn off right there. I got to turn off my little
screen. I turned line off.

(29:50):
Yeah. Or change.
Change when he goes to sleep. I don't know what I'm doing.
Change when it goes to sleep. Any other hot takes and then
maybe we can take a break and turn the air back on and then
come back for the second-half. No, I think that's all my
feelings on on country music. Any other feelings?
Oh, bring back, bring back country songs about women
killing people who did them wrong.

(30:11):
Listen, because that was played by Earls.
In this world, yes, absolutely. In this economy.
Cancel the 2 black Cadillacs. I Yeah, yes.
Carrie Underwood. No, Carrie Underwood, that was
her genre, was correcting men who wronged her.
Miranda Lambert. Yeah.
Gunpowder and lead, Yes, absolutely.

(30:33):
Yeah, absolutely. I love it.
Well, I think we're going to take a little break.
You want to take a break. Let's take a break.
We'll take a break, we're going to go refill our beverages and
we'll be right back. Bye.
And then they kiss. Fucking idiots.
Turn that air on. I'm dying.
My knee hurts. I'm dying.

(30:55):
Flips like that? Oh.
Jesus, you. Ready for me to clap?
That would be a shitty STD to have.
Ridiculous. Oh God.

(31:16):
You say that while we're not recording.
We are. OK Oh my God. 127 Welcome back.
We took a little break, turned on the air conditioner.
Cold again? Well.
Well, we're cooler than cooler than we were.
Yeah, that's more these lights be light and baby.

(31:37):
Yeah, but we look good, don't we?
You can comment down below how good we look.
It's fine. It's fine.
Tell us we look gorgeous. Yeah, you know the words.
And you know, it's a new season,so we may have a new segment for
you this season. This is going to end up being my
favorite segment. This will be what gets clipped

(31:59):
and puts put on the TikTok. This is what these, these, this
is the part that's going to go viral.
Yeah, probably we'll get us cancelled, probably will get us
cancelled. But we do have a new little
section for you called Can I be mean for a second?
What do? You want to be mean?
Just be mean for a second. I want to be mean about control.

(32:19):
Top pantyhose. And we talked about this months
ago, please. We have a group chat for the
podcast. And after we wrapped season 1,
we were like, we were our control top tights, all caps.
I really hate control top pantyhouse.
Like if you are a drag entertainer, please, for the
love of all that is holy, stop buying control top pantyhose.

(32:42):
They don't look good, they do nothing for the shape of your
body, and they don't even hold your pads in place correctly.
So just stop buying control top pantyhose.
It's a mistake. And all of your costumes are
always going to be higher cut than where the control.
It looks bad. It looks terrible.
It looks terrible. I feel like it's a Canon event

(33:03):
for drag entertainers. We all at one point in time have
to buy Control top. You're like, I can just go to
Walmart or Target. Just go.
And grab these real quick. Yeah.
But I mean, even I don't think Walmart does, but used to.
I don't shop at Target anymore but when I did shop at Target
they did have like dancer tightsthat were not control top.
Also it's 2025, you can Google dance tights.

(33:28):
Girl and then buy them. There is a store in Montgomery
if you don't want to give Jeff Bezos any of your money and you
don't want to shop on Shaman. Dancewearsolutions.com.
Dancewearsolutions.com There yougo.
Don't buy Capezio, they shred like tissue paper.
Listen, Capezios are a RIP off, Trust me.
Do not buy Capezios if you are adrag entertainer.

(33:50):
If you were doing ballet five nights a week, absolutely buy
some Capezios because those aren't going to get shredded.
But when you're doing drag, they're not going to last.
Mari, I'm sorry, it's just not going to last.
But I just had to be mean about some control top pantyhose for a
second. Literally you have the Internet.
Buy dance tights. Please buy dance tights and buy
dance tights in your color, OK? Don't look at me like that.

(34:18):
I have seen some Queens who are our shade of white with a very
dark pantyhose on. You're not suntan.
That is light suntan. That is not baby.
That is not a tan at all. You're light suntan.
Yeah, get the nude and put a nude fishnet over it.

(34:40):
You'll be fine, I promise. Bring back fishnets.
But I've started wearing fishnets again.
Some. I'm wearing some right now.
I'm so in this chair I can't. Move.
She really is wearing fishnets you can't even see.
There are rainbow fishnets to gowith my the zippers on my.
She coordinated. It's a.
How special? How special?

(35:00):
Can I be mean for a second? You can absolutely be mean for.
A second we talked about controlled up tights.
Let's talk about where to put the lace on your head.
I blame RuPaul. She is.
I blame she. Is not even wearing her wig.
Her wig is. She's got a she's got a mic
stand with the wig behind her. It is so wild.

(35:21):
It's just hovering in the back. Behind your head and it looks
like she's the. Idea of wearing a wig.
Honestly, if I could get a wig to be behind me instead of on my
head. I don't wear it either.
I. Get it, I get it, but some of
y'all I know where your real hairline is Drag is a fantasy.
You can bring her forward. This is not my real hairline.

(35:42):
This is at least I'm wearing my lace is correct for me to be
saying this. Can you imagine?
I come in here with girl, I comein here with one of my Boo Boo
wigs and I'm like, put your lacein the right spot and then.
And you ain't got no lace on. Yeah, and also.
I almost wore a hard front wig. That would have been kind.
Of fun. Make sure your lace matches too
please. And some of that you can't
control. Some of those wigs you, you see

(36:05):
the pictures in the listing and then when you get in person,
you're like. She that's a different color,
but if you saw that in the storeand you still were like I can
wear that. Yeah.
No, you can't. Yeah, that is not for your.
Or you need to learn how to lighten it.
But also I think. You could bleach that.
You can peroxide lace, but I will say if it's lace for black

(36:26):
people, no amount of peroxide isgoing to make that hairline look
right. Yeah, that's why I was like, buy
lace for yours. But sometimes they come a little
a little darker. Some of my wigs.
Are I did have that issue with the wig one time.
Honestly know what it is. I think it's actually like.
I don't think sometimes it's a little darker.
Also I think sometimes like cheaper lace, it's just isn't.

(36:47):
It's definitely not quality of the lace, yeah.
But I get it, sometimes those Amazon wigs are what's in the
budget. Well, and then also what you see
on the screen is not. They lie.
They lie comes in the package. They lie, yes, but we're, you
know, we're a lot of us, if we're wearing wigs like this,
are doing more female illusion, you know, female impersonation

(37:12):
and women tend to have smaller foreheads.
So you don't have to have that wig all the way back here where
you have a 12 head and then yourhairline starts.
And if you're doing that becauseyou just got all this in the,
you can cut the sides. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Cut the sides. Make it fit.
Make it fit. Make it fit.
It'll look so much better if youcut.

(37:32):
Around here we'll do a tutorial for the children one day.
You can do that. I'm not.
Just like I have to film all thecommercials.
My YouTube I'll film the commercials.
I'm going to make you film your own coffee Mafia commercial here
in just a second. I could have brought a coffee
pot. I could have brought props.
We need to film a proper commercial for the coffee mafia

(37:54):
in the coffee shop. We could do that.
Do you know how much ambient noise is in that God?
1st when it's clothing. When it's closed, No.
No, when it's closed it's worse.There's like 30 things humming
at all. Oh.
That is true. That's true.
That's what noise. Will dub it.
Will really, I was literally just about to say just start

(38:15):
talking and then a voiceover will cut in about 1/2 a second
late. Yeah, so it doesn't match up
with your lips. And it's not, it's not even
saying the same thing, no. Yeah, it's just not your.
Voice and you don't know how to do you don't know any of the
coffee stuff. I've just.
Over here. Be like, all right guys, here's
the voice over for the coffee shop commercial.

(38:35):
Skittles just sent me this video, so I'm gonna do my own
dialogue. Ready, love.
That that's funny. And there's the commercial.
Love that you can't steal that idea.
We've got it on Vidya. Love that it's.
Trademark. I guess we're done being me.
And I think we can done be. I think we can stop being mean.
Who's birthdays are it? Who's?
Birthdays are it. God bless.

(38:59):
Oh, all right, now I'm headed all this out.
It's going to be fun to figure out.
No, it's going to be a straight through.
It will be a straight through because we're professionals.
Something like that. You see how there was a mediate?
Y'all are getting paid for this,no?
Oh, I didn't say that. There you a profession here.

(39:21):
I paid to be here, stupid do. You see how we were like, we're
professionals and then immediately was.
Crickets. Yeah, crickets.
I'll put in a cricket sound effect, don't worry.
Lovely. So anyways, on to our last
segment. Final segment of episode 1.
You know we can't do a mixed matched episode without some

(39:42):
work it or tuck it. I honestly do love working it or
tucking it. I find out a lot of useful
information about you. I also like when we do the same
and it's just like here's 3 unrelated things.
I have 3 unrelated things. Do you have 3 unrelated?
I2 are semi related but it is 3.It's three, mostly unrelated.

(40:03):
Things. Oh no, mine's out of left field.
It doesn't even have anything todo with maybe a little bit about
what we talked about. Yeah.
Anyway, you wanna start? I'll go first.
Knock us out of the park. We're gonna go left field.
We're gonna Chuck it candy corn.That's it.
I'm not gonna say anything. Oh, people are gonna hate me.
Work it. Oh, I love candy corn.

(40:25):
I do too. It's so good.
But the name brand, it's gotta be like that.
Now, OK, it's called rocks, babe.
BRACHS. There we go.
Rocks. No, it's fucking wax.
It's. Disgusting.
I have not had candy corn. I probably haven't had candy
corn in a couple years. I don't think we've bought it

(40:46):
recently just because. Because it's trash.
Sorry. Well.
The last time I. Fuck it, fuck it, burn it, put
it in the trash. Melt it, pop it, twist it, pull
it. I think the.
Last time I had candy corn was when I was an employee of your
coffee shop and you you bought it.
I did not buy candy corn. Somebody else brought that.
I don't know, but I probably bought that Little Mix stuff.

(41:07):
I would. Never buy candy corn because
it's disgusting. Disgusting.
Hate it and my mom doesn't listen to this.
Her worst personality trait is that she likes candy.
Corn. I guess my worst personality
trait now is that I like. Pick it up.
She's going to be like, you know, I will watch Season 2 and
then she's going to be like, oh damn, I'm getting trashed.
Right in the first episode. Love that the first episode no.

(41:31):
Now we'll see. Now I got to look into the
astrological charts because my mom and Kelowna are the same
birthday so I need to. Know we got a.
Survey. So do Virgos and Libras like
candy corn? Yeah, I need to know.
I need to know. Based on your Zodiac sign.
Give us their sign and yay or nay on the.
Candy corn. Yeah, yeah.
Leave that down in the comments below.
As Meatball says, hey chat. As, as the I've had a podcast

(41:56):
says, listeners, listeners, listeners work it or tuck it a
wig with bangs. I have recently become a bang
girlie. I have converted her.
Yes, bring back hard front bang wigs.
Girl. A bang wig fishnets is the
moment fishnets dance tights. 3 O ones and a bang wig.

(42:21):
If I'm ever worried about my lashes being a little wonky I'll
just go on a bang. Can't nobody see it then?
See. I think, well, my lashes are so
big. They can't be wonky.
I know they can be wonky and nobody told me my lash was
falling off at past the crown. That's so rude.
Maybe on the way home I look like a stroke victim.

(42:43):
My left lash is trying to jump ship.
She said goodbye. Jump ship.
It was so bad. I think the bang on my wig, I
wore a bang. I think the bang on my wig was
fighting that lash. Or maybe I had a sweat.
It was probably holding. It was a bad.
It was a bad makeup night. It was a warm evening for me.
There was a lot. Going on this still is this.

(43:03):
I wouldn't stop watering. You're allergic to one of your
makeup products and you need to figure out.
Which one? I don't know which one anyway.
Don't use expired makeup palettes.
Half of my. Work it wigs.
Work it. Love a bang wig.
I'm going to buy more. They're in.
They're in my Amazon cart. The one that that red one that
Lola has, I want it because thatred is like perfect for my skin

(43:26):
tone. Perfect.
Love a bang wig? What we got next door?
Unrelated semi related to what we talked about earlier.
OK, so you don't like control top tights?
Yes, No. How do you feel about the
shimmer tights? Why the top half your body is
matte but the bottom half is shimmer?

(43:46):
I'm confused. Put on more highlighter.
I'm confused as to why you thought you were a majorette on
the marching band field and why you felt the need to put on some
shimmer tight. I think I'm wearing shimmer
tights. Now.
Listen, but these aren't crazy. I will say there are degrees of
shimmer, the Capezio shimmer tights.
That's too much. Barbie hot dog leg fantasy.

(44:10):
I don't have time for it. They're so shiny.
You're, you're. I used to call it Barbie Leg
'cause. If you with the foot if.
You worked at me if you worked. If you worked at me if.
You worked with me or saw me perform at Irish Bread pub.
I had a Capezio shimmer tights era also.

(44:32):
I did shred. I flew through them like tissue
paper, baby. I was having a bite every two
weeks. I was like, yeah they're so
fucking thin. And the shimmer ones are prone
to like snags and runs and tears.
And see, I got thick ties so they rub together.
The Shimmer. Ones and it just.
Also the shimmer ones run small and they don't tell you that so
you have to buy a size up. Another reason not to have

(44:55):
shimmer tights. Yeah, I listen.
It's not for me. I don't know what brand these
are. These are OK cuz they're only a
little bit shiny. Maybe if it has like a little
bling, but I don't want to be over there looking like Edward
Cullen. It also if you are showing a lot
of skin like the rest of you like your face and.
Right, right, right, right. And it doesn't matter.
Yeah. My Now if you have on, like, a
bodysuit, Yeah. And like, I can't see your arms.

(45:18):
Yeah, I'm OK with that. My worst no matchy syndrome was
when I was wearing those Capezioshimmer tights.
It was really bad because they were also a little bit warmer
than I 'cause I'm, I'm a little cool toned.
I don't know if you can tell I'ma little cool toned.
She's what? Yeah, very Hawaii.
Transplant. Cool ho whip.

(45:39):
Cool ho whip. Ghostly, ghastly, ghastly
foolish. Go away.
I came up with three. That was pretty good.
She's a lizard. That was off the lizard, Yeah.
Cold blood in. I have to say, tuck it to some
shimmery tights. I think most of them are bad.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know what you should do

(45:59):
instead? Get a stoned fishnet.
If you want a little shimmer, get a stoned fishnet.
Yeah, OK. Yeah.
They're like, again, they're like 5 bucks on Amazon.
And sometimes those stoned fishnets are a little bit more
resilient nowadays and they'll last a little bit longer because
they know that people are using them to perform in.
And you can get them in nude andblack.
And I love a nude fishnet. Yeah.

(46:21):
Actually, I think a great A nudefishnet with the stones is a
great way to elevate a fit. Yeah, because it gives you some
sparkle, but it's not as obnoxious as a colored.
Fish I agree, I can agree with. That and it gives your legs some
texture, so it's not just Barbieleg matte tight.
She hates, I hate it. If you if you bring this, you're
wearing a $400.00 custom costumeand then you're wearing some

(46:44):
it's fashion $30 pumps and just Barbie leg shitty trims.
So put on some chaps, put on some fishnets which wear a
skirt. Bring back.
I don't know, chaps are kind of fun.
Chaps are hot. I think I'm gonna wear my purple
and a blue. Like, chap, I should buy that
Moo moo outfit, that cow chap outfit from Danity.
It's cute. That was cute.

(47:05):
Yeah, that was really cute. Yeah.
Work it. OK, see, this is random.
It has an absolutely nothing to do.
Work it or tuck it. Standing ovations at the end of
a movie. A movie specific.
Movie. A movie, specifically.
Baby Lupita Nyongo is not there.She does not care, she already
got her check. I don't remember, I saw it on

(47:27):
TikTok or something, but like the movie ended and like people
were like standing and clapping.It was like a moment like they
were moved. I don't remember what movie it
was. No when.
I see the credits, I get up unless.
It's a Marvel movie and I know there's a post credit.
Scene. And honestly, you know what I do
when those credits start rolling?
I go to IMDb and I'm like you 'cause there's a section where
it says trivia. You go to the crazy credits and

(47:49):
you see if there is a trivia like a credit scene.
And if there's not, you leave. I'm gonna go refill my soda that
I paid $20.00 for and then I'm gonna go home.
Probably put some more butter onthe popcorn 'cause I only eat
like half a bag of the popcorn. I can't eat the whole thing, I
hope. You zoom in on that.
We eat popcorn differently. And so when I go to leave, I

(48:11):
just put more butter on the popcorn.
I did. Half a bag left at the end of
the movie. I buy like a big ass bag of
popcorn though. Like the biggest.
One big. Yeah.
The large. The large.
Whatever as big as big a bag as they'll give me.
We eat popcorn. No, OK, but we.
Sometimes we don't. Share a bag though, Like we get
our own. Yeah, no, I'm not sharing a bag

(48:33):
with a. Couples combo or you get like 2.
Combo you get the 2 bags of popcorn, 2 drinks and the candy.
Oh, no, no, no. What's that run you 100?
Dollars. I think it is like 40 bucks,
yeah, because the. 40 bucks Connor and I usually get the the
the the big the popcorn bucket and then the two large sodas.
No candy. I want to start sneaking candy

(48:55):
in. I Well, yes.
I gotta have a yes, a reses pieces or a peanut butter Eminem
or. The thing I miss about the movie
theater in my hometown and enterprise is they, and, you
know, the AMC here may have it and I don't know because I don't
read menus. They probably don't.
But it was like this kids combo thing and it was like popcorn, a

(49:18):
drink and candy. Yeah.
And you, the drink obviously waslike a kids drink, but you could
pay to upsize it and I would. And I'd give me a large drink.
You. Know what I missed?
It was good. Carmike Cinema Stimulus
Tuesdays, Yes. Yes, yes, absolutely.
A $2.00 small popcorn, $2.00 small soda and disc.

(49:39):
Like it was like 6 dollar $7.00 tickets, Yeah.
I missed that too. It's.
Good. Rest in peace, Carmike Cinema,
you were. You were good.
It was good. No, but I'm not standing to clap
at the end of a movie I nobody can hear.
Me play yes at a movie absolutely not why are we and
I'm. Stopping at the end of the.
Movie. You shouldn't.
You should. You can laugh, you can cry, you

(50:00):
can whoop. There shouldn't be talking.
There shouldn't be the people that talk at the screen.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Or the people that are like,
what is what's she doing? Why is she going in there?
Baby? I don't know.
I'm watching the movie with you.Be quiet.
Don't ask me questions. From the movie, Yeah.
Now I'll talk during the movie, but not a lot.

(50:21):
It's usually like a quick aside,like a Oh my God, like yeah,
kind of situation. I'm not having a whole
conversation. At home is different, but at the
theater she's etiquette. But we talked, I don't know when
we talked about this, but we talked about because I saw Hades
Town when it was at the gouge couple months ago.
Theater etiquette's dead. Oh, so if they're not behaving
in the theater, of course they're not behaving at the.

(50:42):
Movies, people nowadays are justlike whipping out their phones
and like recording at a Broadwayshow me and I'm like, what the
fuck are you doing? What were absolute fuck are you
doing? There were more cell phone
interruptions at my viewing of Hades Town than my entire like
play watching like history, likemy I.
Believe it, I believe. It it was insane.

(51:04):
I believe it. Put your damn phones away.
Turn them off, leave them in your car.
You don't the way you don't needit.
In 8th grade we went to the Shakespeare Festival in
Montgomery and and they didn't do this, but this is what it
felt like. My English teacher put a gun to
each of our heads and said if you misbehave at all, we're
going to shoot you in front of the fountain at the Shakespeare.

(51:27):
You will never be able to come back to the Shakespeare.
Festival and you're not going toget to get lunch at the mall
with everyone else. We're going to leave you dead
by. Shakespeare Festival.
You got to have lunch at the mall.
Yeah, they took us to. We have to eat.
Lunch on Shakespeare Festival grounds.
They have food there. We we brought food.
Yeah, No, baby. Operation Schools is rich.
They took us. They pretend they're rich.

(51:49):
No, they're rich. They got.
They're not spending it where? They should.
They're not OK, so we're. Rich and every cake can get a
laptop, but when I was in middleschool some of those bathroom
stalls didn't have locks. Oh girl.
I can't talk about this anymore because that's a whole second
episode anyway. So tuck it.
So Tuck. It ovations are the type of
movies a movie a movie. Go home there was a woman when I

(52:11):
saw sinners in the theater that she had to be escorted out of
the theater what because she they did the.
You told me this. That's right.
There is a scene where somebody is singing and it's a
instrumental plot like moment inthe movie, but he starts singing
and it triggers a chain reaction.
No, we're not going to be that podcast that talks about a whole

(52:33):
movie plot. Go watch Sinners.
But he starts singing and something else happens and she
is just clapping like whole palmloud clapping for the entire
like 10 minute sequence, no and I guess.
And she's paddled. Whooping A hollering and
clapping and I guess somebody went and told on her because

(52:55):
some one of the attendants came in and she shouted something
like y'all don't want me to havea good time and everyone clapped
as she was being escorted out. That's what you get.
Like I missed parts of that movie because you couldn't be
quiet. If you want to clap in your own
home, do that. But at the theater, let me enjoy
the movie. Why No, Yeah, I don't have time.
Also, again, Sammy can't hear you.

(53:18):
He is a character on a screen. And if you haven't seen Sinners,
go watch it, but don't research anything about.
Just watch it. Like watch.
It I researched nothing about the movie and just sat down and
watched it and I think it was 12times better because.
I didn't know. Go into it blind.
Just go see it. I was like, what?
Because you went and saw it and you were like, Oh my God, it's

(53:39):
so good. I you didn't say anything about
it, which was plot points. And I was a little mad that I
knew the plot point, but it still didn't ruin it.
But go in blind. No, nothing.
Just know. It's a great.
Movie Jordan is hot and that's all, but you know that from his
other movies. So fucking sexy.
Anyways, my last last workader, my last workader tucket is.
I'm gonna try to do this in memory because my iPad locked

(54:01):
again and I'm not taking my glove off again.
Pumpkin spice, anything, becauseit's everywhere now.
It's in drinks, it's in food, it's in candles, it's in air
fresheners. Yeah.
We have a raised hand in the audience.
OK Oh, I was in winn-dixie getting grocery supplies the
other night. Right.
Why do they have pumpkin spice dude wipes?

(54:23):
Yes, I'm. Sorry, I'm sorry.
Why do we? Have scented.
Why do we have scented wipes? Why?
Why? Why do you want to go eat your
ass and it tastes like pumpkin spice lattes?
Grinder should Grinder should have Grinder should have Yelp
reviews. I should be able to leave stars.

(54:45):
And you know what? He.
Tasted like a pumpkin spice latte.
Like what? OK, I'm going to say tuck it to
pumpkin spice latte taste. No pumpkin anything it the taste
the scent. Like, do you like pumpkin
candles? Yeah, I like pumpkin candles.
Why? Fuck that smell like Kirkland's.
Maybe. Maybe I'm like, I like, like I

(55:08):
like pumpkin cookies. I like pumpkin bread.
Pumpkin bread's good. Pumpkin spice lattes are kind of
ass. Why do white people?
Lose their minds. Every August.
Well, that's that's again another podcast episode we can't
get into. Listen, I feel very tired.
You live your best life. That's another diagnosis I.

(55:28):
Just don't get it. I don't get it.
But I truly, it could be like 10:00 PM and sometimes I'm like.
I'd love a coffee. Would really hit right now a 12.
So, like, you're on the Gilborg girl?
So like, I'm literally in bed like coffee.
I'm reading a book and I'm like,God, you know, it'd be really
good. And iced coffee.
And you know what that equals for me?

(55:51):
Doctor Pepper. Dr. Pepper.
I feel the same way. Yeah.
Yeah. I'm in bed at 11:30 at night and
I'm like, Chris Cold. One would be really good right
now. You already brush your teeth.
You know, yeah, I've flossed, I've done the Listerine, all of
that, and I'm sitting here like.Just a 7 oz mini Doctor Pepper
of the night. Why didn't I think about a mini

(56:13):
a night? Why didn't I think about a mini
It's. Still going to be sugar on your
teeth, but. Yeah, I'll brush them again.
I don't get pumpkin drinks. I don't think they're good.
Yeah, I do think some of the pumpkin candles are OK.
Pumpkin bread is fine. I just think we freak out every
August when Starbucks brings back pumpkin spice and it's
just. Don't I know it?
And I and I sell pumpkin spice year round.

(56:34):
By the way, we carry pumpkin spice syrup year round.
There are people that drink it, you're right.
There are there are people that ask, but also every fall
everyone's like, do you got it? Can I?
I'm like, it's really just not that good.
There's so many better fall flavors.
Like we have two different applesyrups.
Maple syrup is a great fall flavor.
People forget so much about apples in the fall, and I'm

(56:57):
like, can we? Why aren't we forgetting?
About apples, nobody does PEAR stuff.
Listen, I grew up on pear salads.
This is a really specific shout out.
You need to be in the Lee Countyarea.
Hornsby Farms does a pear lemon ginger jam.
Interesting. It's to die for, and you best

(57:19):
believe I'm going to get myself some.
Even if the coffee shop doesn't start selling Hornsby Farms
again because we didn't really move enough of it.
I'm gonna text them and be like,can I just get a quart of it for
me? Me.
Just that pear Jelly is so fucking good.
All of their jellies are good. They had a caramel apple butter
one too, that was really good. And obviously their pepper

(57:42):
jellies are great. I love Peach habanero pepper.
Jelly is really good. But that yard pear with the
lemon and the ginger, I texted them last fall and literally was
like, are you bringing that back?
When can I get it? I was like, I'm thinking about
it. I've been.
Thinking I have dreamt of it since the 4th of July.
I like sent them an order and I was like, y'all got that?
That yard pair? They're like, yeah.

(58:02):
And I was like, that's the best news I've heard all week.
Gimme. Oh God, no.
Yeah, I not pumpkins, not pumpkin spice like in a drink,
but like pumpkin spice like I like.
Cookies I like. Do you like breaking pie?
I don't like pumpkin pie. You don't like pie.
OK, I firmly believe that you'rea pie person or a cake person,

(58:25):
but you're not both. Yes, and I am a cake person, not
a pie person. I love a apple pie.
I love every once in a while, a little cherry pie.
I. Also do think that there is a
BlackBerry difference in the vibe between like a fruit pie
and like a yes like a pie that's.
A yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Like the a custardy, custardy,
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Like chocolate pie, pumpkin pie.

(58:46):
They're all like a Yeah, they have to set.
I'm very much a cake person. I love a cake.
Because when I'm eating apple pie, I'm eating it for the
apples. Oh really?
You just want the cinnamon apples from cracker.
Burger last Thursday, Megan and took me to Abbeville to go eat
at some at Ruby's Diner. Ruby's Cafe, I think it was.

(59:07):
Ruby's Cafe. Yeah, literally some of the best
food I've ever eaten in my entire life.
Like you remember that Golagachifood we had on the way to
Savannah? On the way home.
On the way home from Savannah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's like third under that. And he knows how good that food

(59:30):
was. But the Peach cobbler.
Yeah, I don't know what this woman did, but I have never had
Peach cobbler like that. And it was like it literally
melted in my mouth, it was that good.
And I 'cause I think the person,the woman who owns it, is behind

(59:51):
the bar like scooping food and I, it's a.
Small business. I am making drinks well.
She said it was her, her sister and her.
Her daughter, so it was like thethree of them running the whole
thing. I went up to her.
I said, what did you put in thatPeach cobbler?

(01:00:11):
I was like, that is literally the best Peach cobbler I've ever
had in my life. She was like, it's so sweet.
I didn't even put sugar in it. I said, Nah, I know you're lying
to me. Nah, I know you're lying to me,
Miss Ruby. But if you're in the Abbeville
area, please go visit Miss Ruby because that was some of the
best cooking I've ever had in mylife.
All. Right.
Well, next time I go down to Savannah.
My work at her Tucket. Oh, I have a restaurant for you.

(01:00:33):
The next time you go to Savannah.
It's on the way to Savannah. OK, Anyway, what?
I have to look it up. I have it favorited in my Yelp.
I don't remember the name off I'm talking.
About now, you know she's old using Yelp still.
Listen, what's your last work ather tucket?
Do you not use the Yelp? No, I use Google reviews.
Am I old? Am I old that I use Yelp?
The only Yelp reviews the coffeeshop gets are from old people or

(01:00:57):
the worst people on the planet. No, I literally.
Have been banned from Google Reviews.
Everything I'm like this was some of the best food.
I take pictures, I put OK I am old anyway.
I will show you. I'll show you my I have.
Google reviews too, but I like Yelp.
I'm going to show you my dashboard from the restaurant

(01:01:18):
and I want to see that how many views each of them gets.
See that and the way Google dwarfs Yelp?
Oh, I believe that because everybody can just let's go to
Google nowadays Well and Google has it auto shows up too.
It also auto shows up. Oh yeah, search a restaurant
Yeah, so my last work at our tucket might get both of us
cancelled, especially right I'm.Going to look.

(01:01:41):
Right at the camera, the community that we are in today.
Imagine I was like, is that my camera?
Was that my camera? Was that my camera?
Is that my camera? And then I is that my camera?
Is that that's my camera? That's my camera.
Work. Work it or tuck it, la Boo boos.
Buttons, turn the podcast off. This is the end of the episode.

(01:02:02):
Got it. Buttons, quit watching.
We love we'll. Catch you in episode 2 Buttons.
Bye. I really don't get the fucking
hype. Girl, that I don't know.
What fucking have you seen? Have you?
Seen the music? Like if you wanted a little
freak on a leash I was right there.
I just don't get it. And it's not OK.

(01:02:23):
It's not just little Boo boos. Tuck it to little Boo boos.
But there are so many of these fad things that happen like like
Boo boos. Or even like this isn't a fab
but like for I think it should have been a fad.
Why do Funko pops still exist? Funko Pops and they're so
expensive and you're just buyinga little.
Piece of plastic also like all these different water cups that
we have. We went from the Yeti to the

(01:02:44):
Stanley to the what's that thingyou have now?
Oh, Walla. That thing, yeah.
What? It's ridiculous.
It's just a water bottle. Also, it's just so it's just a
stuffed animal on a. Key chain.
I'm gonna here's some insider tea because I've worked with
reusable bottle companies before.
To make merch for the coffee shop, you have to use a double

(01:03:06):
wall stainless steel cup. Needs to be used between 20 and
30 times before you offset the carbon emissions it took to
create that bottle. So the consumerism of owning a
fleet of Stanley mugs that sit on a shelf and you don't use any
of them is really bad for the planet.

(01:03:27):
You need to buy. You need to buy one or two like
again like you may be a rotation, maybe you leave one in
your car, you got one at your desk or.
I leave one at work. And it's good maybe to have
spares in case you like lose 1 or like, you know, it needs, it
needs, she needs to be washed. Have a couple, you know, and I'm
a part of this. Like I, I own more than one, but
I you need to use it like 20-30 times.

(01:03:50):
And that's for like a regular, not the like the really big ones
or like, and that like that number is different for like
glass cups, but like, yeah, 2030times for it to offset what it
cost the planet to create that. So tuck it to those reusable
cups and the Boo boos. Also, if you're going to bring a
reusable cup into a coffee shop,bring it in clean.

(01:04:13):
I'm sorry, we shouldn't have to talk about that.
That's not something that shouldneed to be said.
Yeah, yeah. What's wrong with people?
I don't get little Boo boos. I don't get any of those little
any of the blind packaging, any of like the little trinket kind
of situations where you're just paying to have like some little

(01:04:33):
thing that sits on the shelf. I don't get it.
And like, why is it? Why is it rare?
Because somebody said it was rare.
They're not rare, it's fake, it's artificial.
All made-up there is just so popular and what they're doing
is because the people that produce little Boo boos know
they're super popular. They're only making so many of
them. Well, that's how they're
limited. Fake.
Yeah, it's fake scarcity. Scarcity, which is how like

(01:04:56):
luxury fashion works and stuff like that.
Or. That's why Hermes bags are the
way they are. Yes, they're intentionally
expensive and they only need so many of them.
Hermes bags are also. Handmade so especially like the
Birkin you have to be invited tobuy a Birkin kind of situation.
Yeah, we'll see. I don't know it's and I I'm not
saying that all limited. Things.
How long do you think this little Boo Boo phase is going to

(01:05:16):
go? Already gone on longer than I
thought. I 100% have to agree with you,
it's gone on way longer than I thought it.
Was coming back to when we were talking about how TikTok has
made like music shorter it's made your attention span
shorter. It's also made I mean we no
listen we're from small town Alabama.

(01:05:37):
So fashion trends when we were. Kids, they delay.
They there's a delay in what is cool and also those trends take
longer to reach us and take longer for us to process.
That isn't the case anymore because of the Internet.
So now everything is so fast andliterally something can be so
popular for like 3 weeks and then you move on to something

(01:05:59):
else and then it's just like OK well bucket hats are out.
And so now there's warehouses full of bucket hats where Target
took a gamble and printed a bunch of bucket hats and then
y'all decided to change your mind and now you want dad hats.
And. It's ruined like entire
industries and created a lot of waste, especially in the fashion

(01:06:20):
industry. There's so much.
Waste because of trends and. I'm not saying there's like
obviously there have always beentrends.
Things always come and go, and things always come back.
And they cycle. Yes, we have.
We have come back to the 90s full circle.
But the problem is, is right nowwe're not even in the 90s.
We're in the 90s and the 80s. Well, and we're already having
Y2K like 2000 moments. Everything is happening all at

(01:06:43):
once. And also for like two months at
a time, and then it goes away and comes back.
Oh, like these cycles? Are short it's everybody's ADD
baby it's wild everybody's ADD put your phone down it's
everybody's collective ADD put your phone and the phones are
making it worse put your phone down as as you watch our podcast
after you finish this after you finish our podcast put your
phone down Megan and I were actually talking about that we

(01:07:04):
were saying that the reason the literacy rate is so low in our
country specifically is because.Stop reading in schools but.
Well, I mean, they still have toread in schools, but they don't
have those books easier. They don't have those AR tests
like we used to take, so they don't have the reading
comprehension. Well, also, we used to have all

(01:07:26):
of the books with the difficult themes have been pulled from the
shops. Absolutely.
Yeah. They don't teach To Kill a
Mockingbird anymore. They don't teach That's a bad
Book 51 anymore. Both of those are books I read
here in Alabama. By the way, To Kill a
Mockingbird is literally local here from like, it's from here.
And it's about a real thing thathappened.
We are actively living in, in where the civil rights movement

(01:07:51):
happened in real time. And people, and you can't read
about it. Don't talk about it because all
the books are bad, because it makes people uncomfy.
But we were just saying, like, you know, back in back in the
olden days when we got bored, wepicked up.
There were benchmarks. We did.
Yeah. And you weren't told when?
People get bored now they pick up their phone and they scroll
on TikTok. Attention spans get shorter and

(01:08:14):
shorter get sad. Anything else I.
Don't have anything else. To say, plug some upcoming
events. When does this?
Publish This will publish the. 27th if this publishes on the
27th as predicted by the Magic 8ball that lives in Kelowna's
brain. Hold on, hold on, hold on.
So she's telling lies now. The 27th is a Saturday.

(01:08:36):
We used to publish on Fridays 26, so that be the 26th if this
publishes on the 26th. So you can come see icon versus
icon, Beyoncé versus Taylor Swift.
