Ever wondered why seamen might just be the secret elixir to regrowing your hair? Well, you’re in for a treat! Join us as we take a deep-dive into this offbeat theory and break down the chemical components of seamen, even taking a peek into the health products that contain it. We take you through a light-hearted journey of our research on hair regrowth solutions and the ever-changing hairstyles we've embraced through the years.

Does the urban community’s embrace of facial hair styles, like those flaunted by Rick Ross, ring a bell? We tackle the societal impacts of such trends, and even take a moment to ponder whether women could be more vocal in shaping these trends. As we delve into the past, we reminisce about the coexistence of urban and gothic styles during our high school years. From Marilyn Manson to freestyling in the hallways of Boca High, we explore how these diverse styles shaped our identities. Lighthearted yet candid, our conversation is sure to tickle your funny bone while providing intriguing insights into the world of hair and personal style.

Tori Lane's and Tiger did havesomebody who was good, but some
of the pictures was fluctuating.

Speaker 2 (02:35):

Speaker 1 (02:36):
Yeah, I ain't see consistency.
I know something that nobodydidn't try Seamen.
You put your seamen on yourscalp Because the seamen had a
reverse and you look five yearswithin it and where you got this

(02:59):
from.
It'll restore your follicles,especially if it's your seamen.
Please let it be yours when youget this from.

Speaker 3 (03:07):

Speaker 2 (03:08):
And have you tested this?

Speaker 1 (03:09):

Yes, no, is this something youknow?
I'm not hard-fragged, come onman.
The cells within the seamen isvery, very new.
It's restoreable.
It's a reproductive cell, it'sa chemical process in there.

(03:33):
So they put chemicals in there.

Speaker 2 (03:37):
So if you got this from bro, you ain't just so you
trying to tell me.
You just woke up one day andsay oh shit, this could help
your hair grow, seamen.

Speaker 1 (03:46):
I've Google seamen, so I know there's chemical in it
.
I'm talking about likepheromone chemicals.
Then there's hormones in it,there's proteins in it, and
these are things that we wouldtry to synthesize.
Now, obviously, you know, thisain't something that's on the

(04:07):
market, but there is some healthproducts that do carry seamen
in it.

Speaker 2 (04:14):
So did you try to bring your hair back?
Have you thought about tryingto bring your hair back?

Speaker 1 (04:17):
No, no, no, because I ain't learned this till later.

No, no, no, now I don't care,now you do, yeah, yeah, yeah,
now I don't.

Speaker 1 (04:25):
So what made you rock the ball here?
Because I seen how people waspicking at LeBron James a long
time ago and I was like this isbecause I had dreads.
At the time I was also thinning, but I was like this is the
biggest artist, the biggestathlete in the game right now.
People was roasting him.
I said I'm not that, so imaginewhat people would say about me.

(04:52):
And I didn't want to have todeal with that because I seen
we've picked that people whowanted to try to hold on or be
the person that wore the hat, bethe person that wore the hats
all the time.
Then people would make jokes oh, what you going to do?

Speaker 2 (05:07):

modern day um middle age oryoung adults.

The beard.

Speaker 1 (06:39):

same time.

Speaker 1 (06:46):

urban side of things to read, tobring it to the youth culture.

I don't see Birdman rocking it.
I ain't see Jeezy rocking it.
Birdman, I don't know.
I don't see Birdman doing it.

Speaker 3 (07:47):
My question was it's like yo, what's up with J J
rocking the wicks now, like theFlorida wicks, he went straight
wicks because he was known forhaving a low cut.

Speaker 1 (07:55):
Man J a problem.
J is going to be like Bosch gothad wicks and he was in New
York.
Listen, a lot of people likefor us we know it to be Dade
County, but obviously Jamaicabeen had those.
That's those, those styles ofdreads.
And then it was other regions.
We just didn't know.
The internet made it feel likeit was, it was our thing to

(08:19):
claim, just like I seen oldpictures with J Z with on grills
in the 80s, late 80s or eitherearly 90s.
I thought Paul Wall in thesouth brought grills to the
forefront.
Then I seen this old picture ofJ Z and Wu Tang Klin and all

(08:39):
these other people.
It's like man we thought thiswas, we thought this was our
thing and it was some peoplethat actually was rocking them
in that fashion Right on man, no, right on, We'll see what's
going on.

Speaker 2 (08:54):
but yeah, I got no problem with it.
Man, I'm rocking minds, I'mholding it down, we out here
beer gang all day Seeming on thescalp.
I don't know about no seamingon the scalp man, but, and I
think the ladies made the beerspopular too.
Like the beers are in man,ladies got a thing for beers out
there, man.

Speaker 1 (09:11):
They make it all possible, because if they ain't
like it, then we wouldn't havekept going.

Speaker 2 (09:15):
So when we're talking about this I still wanna stay
on the topic like this so whenwe do things right, so, and
let's talk about the features.
So you know, I heard somethingthe other day and it came from
Boosie, so it's like so if we dothings to impress the ladies,
so let's talk about, likepainting your nails, for example
.
We seen the thuggas.

(09:36):
You will see, like the littlepumps, the oozy verts and Drake
just did his yeah Right.
So if the ladies were to bemore vocal and be like nah, that
ain't it, you think it wouldminimize the fellas?
Who's doing it?
I think so With doing things,cause if they stay in silent,
his whole thing is they stay insilent.

(09:56):
You know what I mean.
So they that pretty much sayingit's okay and they could
possibly be more vocal.
But can you imagine Drake beingDrake and then the ladies just
a bad one come up to him and belike, hey man, what you doing?
Man, you ain't supposed to bedoing that.
Do you think he was starting tohit them differently?
Be like, ooh, maybe I'mtripping.

Speaker 1 (10:15):
No, that's if when a man paint his nails he already
made a decision to be adisruption, that's a very
disruptive and bold move to doso at that point.
Getting women or discouragingwomen you not even thinking

(10:37):
about that.
And it's not new, those rockbands they been the Gothic
culture, they been doing thepainting of the nails.

Speaker 2 (10:50):
I only grew up.
I only grew up, like when youtalk about that culture.
I kind of paid attention toMarilyn Manson.
He was the kind of first one Isee really go left from his
wardrobe and all black and stufflike that.
But that was the only guy Iknew of.
I never really saw it you knowthe goth kids in school.

Speaker 3 (11:10):
Yeah, they been doing that.

Speaker 2 (11:11):
That's every school that you got to.
You know, not that youmentioned it.
I didn't really know what thatwas, cause I went to Boca High.

Speaker 1 (11:18):
They definitely had goth kids, but you ain't really
yours was with your clique.
It was invisible to you.
Yeah, I just never had a go.
You know, they nails waspainted Never really painted
anything like that.
They had the spike chokers.

Speaker 2 (11:30):
They had the wallets with the chains, the all black
they all bought them but itnever like it was kind of the I
mean for that kind of school.
At that time back when I wasthere early 2000s, it was kind
of normal.
Like you went to Boca High yousaw that and you also saw us
urban kids beating on the trash,can I'm sure when they saw us
freestyling beating on the trash, can I'm like what the hell is
them boys doing?

(11:51):
We screaming, we ready down thehallways.
I know that was like what thehell?

Speaker 3 (11:55):
is that.

Speaker 2 (11:56):
So yeah, I get what you said.
Now that I look back I'm like,yeah, that there were there.
They were present, but I neverreally paid too much attention
to it.
And I ain't gonna lie, bocaHigh was like a nice school back
then.
Like you ain't really everybodykind of got along.

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
