Hooters Girls and a Hot Tuna Sandwich

Hooters Vs. Twin Peaks, fad diets, HIPAA violations, x-rated safari rides, and that tiny little house at the end of the road at the Optometrist's office. Also, is indigestion uncouth? We still don't know.

SPEAKER_03 0:10

Hi.

SPEAKER_01 0:11

Welcome to S Welcome to Sister Shit. Me and Caroline are both in bad moods.

SPEAKER_02 0:18

Yeah. What's up with that?

SPEAKER_01 0:21

Parenting is hard.

SPEAKER_02 0:22

Is there something in the stars?

SPEAKER_01 0:25

I don't know.

SPEAKER_02 0:26

I hope so. That always makes me feel better when I'm like, oh, mm-mm, it's the universe. It's not me.

SPEAKER_01 0:32

Is Mercury in retrograde? Oh, she doesn't understand. Go figure. Okay, well, anyway, we're here. Hope everyone's having a good week.

What Ages Well: Kicking Off

SPEAKER_02 0:44

Yeah. Me too. We literally just had like an hour-long conversation before this about parenting. So that really set the tone. Yeah. But we're going to switch gears and talk about things that do or don't age well. Do or don't age well. Which I feel like I kind of talk about this a lot.

SPEAKER_01 1:09

Okay, what do you talk about the most?

Hooters vs Twin Peaks Culture Check

SPEAKER_02 1:11

I mean, typically like movies or TV shows, being like, oh, that's age well, or like, oh my gosh, that age so well.

SPEAKER_01 1:17

Okay, well, Jay and I were just talking about Hooters and Twin Peaks.

SPEAKER_02 1:22

I don't know why we're talking about it.

SPEAKER_01 1:24

Jay is trying to get to go to Hooters.

SPEAKER_02 1:26

No. I think he's trying to get on the podcast.

SPEAKER_01 1:31

Dropping it in conversations.

SPEAKER_02 1:33

He just keeps being like, like anytime we're talking about what he'll, he's like, what are y'all talking about tonight? What are y'all talking about tonight?

SPEAKER_01 1:39

He's had a taste. I know, he's had a taste. A taste of the behind the mic.

SPEAKER_02 1:47

I don't think he's into Hooters that I know of.

SPEAKER_01 1:50

Okay, this is my analysis of Hooters. I don't know what we were saying about it initially, but just that like multiple people we know have accidentally gone to Twin Peaks not knowing it was like a Hooters style restaurant. I've been to Twin Peaks, and I've also been to Hooters.

SPEAKER_02 2:03

I have a really awkward story about Twin Peaks because remember I went back to school, and so I was in like a bunch of freshman classes, but I was like kind of old.

SPEAKER_00 2:12

Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_02 2:13

This girl was like, I was like, we were talking about where we worked. I barely knew her. You know those like freshman level classes that have hundreds of people make that like one friend that you see every like Wednesday and Thursday for a semester and you never see them again. Yes. She was one of those. Okay. And I was talking to her about like what she did, what she like if she worked and stuff. And she was like, Yeah, I work at Twin Peaks. And I was like, Oh, what is that? And she's like, it's a restaurant in the Vista. They play like, or they like have a lot of football games and sports games playing and stuff. And I was like, oh my gosh, I need to bring my boyfriend or husband. I guess we're married, my husband there. He'd love that. And then I found out later, it's like a titty bar.

SPEAKER_01 2:51

Yeah. Okay. This is my thing though. Hooters, like, I think maintains they have a very strict dress code.

SPEAKER_02 3:01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 3:02

Like the Hooters Girl has looked the same since the 80s or 70s or whenever it started. It's like you know exactly what you're gonna get when you go.

SPEAKER_02 3:11

And dare I say that the dress code is like kind of classic.

SPEAKER_01 3:14

It is. It's classic.

SPEAKER_02 3:16

Like everyone loves a little jean short.

SPEAKER_01 3:18

No, it's it's a it's like a hot pant.

SPEAKER_02 3:20

Oh, it is a hot pant.

SPEAKER_01 3:22

Yeah, it's like an orange hot pant with the socks.

SPEAKER_02 3:25

With the socks.

SPEAKER_01 3:26

And like the bad re and like the rebox. Which I don't know if they have to wear a rebox, but I kind of like it though. So I've goters has always been that that. Okay. And I think their strength is that they don't big boobs. Uh no, there's some little boobs, but they're always out. Okay. It's like your boobs are fully out. Okay. Not fully out, but you know. Um they've never felt the pressure to adapt to the ages. Like they're like, we are who we are.

SPEAKER_02 3:54

Which is typically misogynist.

unknown 3:57

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 3:57

It's like misogynists own it. So they're like, they're like, nothing needs to change.

SPEAKER_01 4:01

Yes. Okay. My take on Twin Peaks, I went one time. I've been once to both of these establishments. Why? We went at with work. We like it had just opened, and we were like, what's going to Twin Peaks? It was it's like lumberjacking. Probably. I worked for an agency, like an advertising agency that like very much wanted to be in Mad Men vibes.

SPEAKER_02 4:23

Like interesting. So Twin Peaks it is.

SPEAKER_01 4:25

Yeah, it was fine. It was fine. And it was like men and women. We all consented. We were all consenting adults.

SPEAKER_02 4:32

The HR uh person was a little bit more.

SPEAKER_01 4:33

She was probably there, Nikki. Um but anyway. Um the vibes are bad.

SPEAKER_02 4:43

Like And the outfits are bad. They look like the they're gonna catch on fire at any given moment.

SPEAKER_01 4:47

Because it's like jean shorts and a flannel, like a bad flannel, right?

SPEAKER_02 4:51

I thought it was skirts, but maybe it is jean jean shorts. Oh, is it skirt? And it's like a it's like a crop flannel top that ties.

SPEAKER_01 4:58

Yeah, and they're cheap looking. And do they have to wear like boots? Yeah, look it up. I don't remember. I I just remember thinking there's not enough um continuity. Like I think with Hooters, their strength really is in the idea that all women are the same woman. Because everyone is really good at looking like the other. And I feel like I say that facetiously, obviously, but it's very much what they're going for. And at Twin Peaks, I just remember there being like maybe it was like I don't know if it's like this at different ones, but this one I just felt like there were some girls that had like so many piercings and tattoos, which I was like, this doesn't feel like the vibe in the mountains.

SPEAKER_02 5:41

But it could be because like you could be like, oh, I go to Twin Peaks if I want like a pierced-up tattoo. But not all of them were like that.

Dress Codes, Vibes, And Worker Reality

SPEAKER_01 5:49

Most of them were. But so it was just not I think I was just expecting Hooters is like weirdly clean-cut feeling. And Twin Peaks felt a little grittier.

SPEAKER_02 6:03

I watched a like undercover boss.

SPEAKER_01 6:05

Oh, of a Hooters. Of a Hooters. Okay.

SPEAKER_02 6:08

And it was insane.

SPEAKER_01 6:09

The like abuse? Yes. Or harassment? Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 6:13

It was really like the the boss really thought that like Hooters was the CEO was like thinking that Hooters was a good place for these women to work.

SPEAKER_00 6:22

Oh no.

SPEAKER_02 6:23

And he went in in this like nasty swine-like looking man.

SPEAKER_00 6:28

Okay.

SPEAKER_02 6:29

Oh bitching at these girls, telling them that they looked ugly without a- swine-like looking man. And like, I mean, he was just disgusting. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 6:39

Like, like I mean, I think you have to be if you manage or own a hooters.

SPEAKER_02 6:43

Ugh. And the guy, the CEO, was disappointed. And I'm like, do you live under a rock? Like, of course this is how it is. But I asked and I accidentally got onto like Twin Peak worker TikTok for a minute. Oh. Where they were talking about working there. And they all hate it, first of all.

SPEAKER_01 7:01

Okay, how come? Same reasons?

SPEAKER_02 7:02

Yeah, you have to have your makeup has to be perfect. They literally grade your like eyeliner and your they like grade.

SPEAKER_01 7:10

I remember when you were on this TikTok.

SPEAKER_02 7:11

Yeah, you get points off for all of these different things. So like if your nail polish is chipped and like if your eyeliner is crooked. Like all of these different, and everything has to like fit like a color pattern for your makeup and your hair and stuff.

SPEAKER_01 7:28

I feel like the Columbia one is not following those guidelines. But I've again only been once and it was like the week they opened.

SPEAKER_02 7:35

Yeah, I've I've never been to a Hooters or a Twin Peaks, and I just don't really think you're missing anything.

SPEAKER_01 7:40

And I don't honestly, like when Twin Peaks opened, I thought, are we still doing this?

SPEAKER_02 7:45

I know.

SPEAKER_01 7:45

It does feel how is there another type of restaurant like this?

SPEAKER_02 7:49

There's a Hooters out in the Northeast that just closed down and now it's a gas station.

unknown 7:53

Huh.

SPEAKER_01 7:54

Interesting.

SPEAKER_02 7:56

They took that thing to the studs and started over.

SPEAKER_01 7:59

Okay, well, as they should.

SPEAKER_02 8:00

Yeah, I'm like, I don't think we're doing this anymore.

SPEAKER_01 8:03

Yeah, I know. I wonder how the Twin Peaks in the Vista's doing.

SPEAKER_02 8:05

Is it still there?

SPEAKER_01 8:06

I have no idea. I drive by it every day, but I never pay attention.

SPEAKER_02 8:11

I just can't imagine being like, oh, let's go to Twin Peaks and eat some wig.

SPEAKER_01 8:17

I know. Look at some boobies.

SPEAKER_02 8:19

Like it's so it is.

SPEAKER_01 8:22

Like you can't find boobs to look at and you're like, Have you seen the Office episode where Michael takes Jim and Jim's like, I want to die. Yes. That's like, I feel like that's like the clientele though. Ugh. It's like guys that literally can't find boobs other places.

SPEAKER_02 8:38

Yeah. Oh man, I feel so sorry for this woman, but hopefully they're getting good tips.

SPEAKER_01 8:43

They had they chose to work there, you know. There's other restaurants to work at.

SPEAKER_02 8:48

Yeah, but you probably get really good tips there. You think?

SPEAKER_01 8:51

You think, I don't know. I don't know. You could get rid of it. I think you could put your tips out at a regular restaurant and get better tips because they're not expecting it.

SPEAKER_02 8:57

Yeah. If I was working in food and bev, I would be working at like a Halls chop house.

SPEAKER_01 9:02

Yeah. For sure. Actually, well, yeah, I know.

SPEAKER_02 9:05

Oh, we yeah, we had a weird Halls experience.

SPEAKER_01 9:08

We did. We thought someone was speaking undercover to us asking if we were Republican, because the vibe at the Halls in Columbia is very Republican.

SPEAKER_02 9:15

And it's just the question was odd. Like it was just he was. He said, Is your name Dixie? Your name Dixie, and we're like, what could that possibly mean? First of all, nobody our age is named Dixie. So like he wasn't actually asking a person.

SPEAKER_01 9:28

And someone had already, we overheard the person next to us already being like, These dang Democrats, which was very weird.

SPEAKER_02 9:33

That's weird because we weren't even talking about anything political. I was enjoying my lobster macaroni and cheese and truffle for us.

SPEAKER_01 9:39

I know. But I we found out later that it's a lot of call girls hang out there. So we were probably someone probably thought we were looking for work.

SPEAKER_02 9:47

You think? Which I'm like, what were we wearing? Because I thought we looked cute.

SPEAKER_01 9:51

I know. But maybe it's like fancy call girls at Halls.

SPEAKER_02 9:55

How much do they make?

SPEAKER_01 9:56

I don't know. Anyway, we digress.

SPEAKER_02 10:02

We digress. Okay. Um can we talk about other things? Constitution has that aged well. I'm just kidding. Oh my gosh.

SPEAKER_01 10:07

Can we talk about other things that age well? Question mark. I've had this question f every time I at least twice a year when I go to the dentist and the eye doctor.

SPEAKER_02 10:17

Yes.

SPEAKER_01 10:18

The equipment they use at both the dentist and the eye doctor, have we gone as far as we can in those areas?

SPEAKER_02 10:26

No.

SPEAKER_01 10:27

But there's no Okay, but this is why I think every time I'm like, well, they must be doing their job.

SPEAKER_02 10:32

But I'm like, I do feel like I'm which the dentist I go to is like yours, if even if new stuff has come out, they won't get it. They won't get it because they are stuck in 1986.

Are We Still Doing This Restaurant Model?

SPEAKER_01 10:43

Yeah, if it ain't broke, don't fix it. It reminds me of like our dentists growing up.

SPEAKER_02 10:47

They haven't redone rugs, carpets. No, but they're good at doing teeth. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 10:53

Anyway, but the eye, every eye doctor I've ever been to, you look at the little picture of the farmhouse at the end of the road, which is like straight from 1950. I love the picture. It's very cute. Like it's very charming. But I'm like, we haven't even changed the picture.

SPEAKER_02 11:10

I don't know it always.

SPEAKER_01 11:11

But I guess it's like if it ain't broke, don't fix it. Like, why would we change it? Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 11:15

It's been telling eyesight whether it's good or bad for years. Why fix it?

SPEAKER_01 11:18

But then if then you go in and it put that giant thing across your face, it all just feels so like old school. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 11:26

I felt that way at the dentist the other day.

SPEAKER_01 11:28

I had to get a Caroline has a hot dentist.

SPEAKER_02 11:31

Okay, I do have a hot dentist. And my everyone in my life knows this. I even sent Jay to him. I'm like, and he's hot, by the way. Jay's like, what? Bye.

SPEAKER_01 11:41

You told that to Jay or just everyone else?

SPEAKER_02 11:44

Everyone. Jay. I was like, he's hot. Just so you know. Jay's like, I what? What? So, anyways, it's not good. This is my take on having a hot dentist. Do not recommend.

SPEAKER_01 11:57

Okay. Because You're very vulnerable.

SPEAKER_02 11:59

You're very vulnerable. They're looking in your mouth and your teeth. And like Jay was like, gosh, Caroline, you're not gonna be allowed to go to the dentist anymore if he's hot, like joking around. I was like, Jay, you don't have a thing to worry about because he's given me three fillings. And the last one was.

SPEAKER_01 12:22

Do you think he was hitting on you?

SPEAKER_02 12:23

No, I think he was disturbed. He it it seemed as though he'd never seen anything like it. And I was like, damn it.

SPEAKER_00 12:34

Oh no.

Things That Age Well: Dentists & Eye Docs

SPEAKER_02 12:34

I know. But I thought to myself while they were doing Mr. Slurpee, I'm like, I don't think Mr. Slurpee has changed since 1999.

SPEAKER_01 12:44

Recession does not affect him.

SPEAKER_02 12:47

No.

SPEAKER_01 12:48

He's just he's been clunking along.

SPEAKER_02 12:50

And like something this is random about the dentist, but I I know everyone probably feels this way. Don't talk to me while you've got your hands in my mouth. I had one lady that like was an impulsive talker, but it was like really uncomfortable because she like wanted me to answer. It wasn't just like talking. They always do to talk. It was like asking questions. My last gal was great. She saw a Harry Styles sticker on my phone, and then she just talked to me about how much she loved Harry Styles the whole time her hands were in my mouth. And I didn't have to answer anything. I was just like snapping. Like, yes, bitch. Exactly.

SPEAKER_01 13:26

Yeah. I think that should be part of their class, like when they're when they're getting their dental assistant.

SPEAKER_02 13:32

Yeah, okay.

SPEAKER_01 13:33

So being of like, how to yeah, like how to have a one-sided conversation.

SPEAKER_02 13:38

Yes. Yes.

SPEAKER_01 13:40

And I just think all see, I have my girl has a one-sided conversation, but it's shit that you don't want. Like she just like is scared of the world. And she lives, she like talks about Columbia like it's the big city. And it's like you leave and you're like, I feel depressed.

SPEAKER_02 13:57

And like this is already depressing.

SPEAKER_01 14:00

I know. And then I have another one that I really like. I feel like we're friends.

SPEAKER_02 14:05

Okay. That's how I felt about Harry Styles.

SPEAKER_01 14:07

Yeah. But yeah, and Keith keeps getting the bad one.

unknown 14:11

Oh.

SPEAKER_01 14:12

I know. He was like gonna ask about a treatment he could get last time, and he was like, I didn't because it was this girl lady, and I wanted to get out of there so bad.

SPEAKER_02 14:19

They they should start at every customer service um appointment. Like whenever you sign in, you should check whether or not you're in the mood to talk.

SPEAKER_01 14:30

Oh, I was gonna say they should match make you with your dental hygienists. That's not a bad idea. Because you see them twice a year.

SPEAKER_02 14:37

Yeah, that's not a bad idea. But I do think we'll be able to do it.

SPEAKER_01 14:40

It should be like a massage. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 14:42

Or like with hair, which y'all know our hair girl, we love it.

SPEAKER_00 14:46

We love Natalie.

SPEAKER_02 14:47

I could talk to her all day.

SPEAKER_00 14:49

I know.

SPEAKER_02 14:49

But like there are times that, like, whenever I was doing hair, I couldn't tell the vibe. Like, do they want to talk? Do they not? I'd rather them just tell me straight up on the piece of paper when they get there. I don't feel like talking. I know. And then I'll just blow dry your hair in silence.

SPEAKER_01 15:05

Yeah, they should do that for more than just massages. They should do it for every everything.

SPEAKER_02 15:10

Yes.

SPEAKER_01 15:10

Because you know they don't want to talk all day.

SPEAKER_02 15:12

I someone was telling me that she did that for she was like a lash, lash extension girl or something, and she said that she has them check whether they want to talk, be silent, or listen to a podcast. And like what like they like they'll say like what kind of podcast they like, and they'll like listen to like a true crowd podcast.

SPEAKER_01 15:32

They should do that at the dentist. Yes. It's kind of loud, but it is, but yeah. You know what innovation they do have the dentist? Is instead of the scrubber thing that like literally makes me want to pull my arm hair. Yeah, that's like it's like a circle. They now have the little power washer with like the salty cleaner.

SPEAKER_02 15:51

Wait, your dentist is upgraded.

SPEAKER_01 15:53

Yes, I love it. Mine does you literally get like a little power wash.

SPEAKER_02 15:57

No, mine still does the salty gritty stuff.

SPEAKER_01 15:59

Do you what flavor do you pick?

SPEAKER_02 16:00

They don't even ask me. They just get it.

SPEAKER_01 16:03

I mean, I guess they don't ask adults.

SPEAKER_02 16:05

Yeah. Which I'm not choosing.

SPEAKER_01 16:06

But the one I kind of like the one, the power washy one is like it's like sandy water and it's like salty.

SPEAKER_02 16:12

Oh.

SPEAKER_01 16:13

I'm into it. I mean, I'm not into it, but it's so much better than the scrubber.

SPEAKER_02 16:17

I remember as a kid, like thinking about the scrubber and getting the chills.

SPEAKER_01 16:22

It's awful. Okay, I have a cr I have a hot doctor story about like talk about fillings. I, with both pregnancies, would get planters warts on my feet. Sorry, I should have had like a warning. This is sick. This is so sick. This is sick. I would get a huge, a huge planter's wart. And I should I not tell this?

SPEAKER_02 16:48

No, you can't.

Hot Dentist, Vulnerability, And Tools

SPEAKER_01 16:49

And anyway, I'll make it short. I won't go into detail. I had this dermatologist that I would go to to have a death. And he would have to. This is so awful. But he was hot.

SPEAKER_02 17:04

He would have-like, I'm not going to anybody hot if I got a planner's work mirror.

SPEAKER_01 17:08

I didn't choose. I just went somewhere and he walked in and I was like, well shit. And I had this huge planner's war on my foot. I was pregnant. I had to go to him multiple times because they had they kept removing it and then would come back. And he would every time not look at my chart because the only like, you know, there's a big fat check yes or no if you're pregnant. He wouldn't even look at that. So I like he'd be like asking me about stuff and I'd be like, Well, I'm pregnant. And he's like, Oh, I'm like, Yeah, you've been seeing me and also this whole time.

SPEAKER_02 17:34

Doctor, you need to know if I'm pregnant or not.

SPEAKER_01 17:37

While you're scraping my planners, what so one time he scraped it. He didn't band it. The nurse was I can't remember what she was talking about, but she was talking about things that like were not, should not have been talked about in the dentist office in the doctor's office. Like, what I don't know, not any just I was just like, this is I don't need to know this about you. It was like personal. Okay. She didn't manage me up, okay? I was leaving and I tracked blood. Oh I didn't realize till I got into the car. My foot was actively bleeding.

SPEAKER_02 18:09

You feel woozy.

SPEAKER_01 18:10

We can move on, that's it. But I he was hot, but he was also a jerk, I think.

SPEAKER_02 18:14

Yeah. I remember you saying he was kind of mean to you.

SPEAKER_01 18:16

He was kind of mean and he made me feel bad about my planner's wort. And I was like, this is your profession. If you didn't want to scrape people's planner's warts off. He would make you feel bad. Yeah, he'd be like, Yeah, you're not like so. He'd make me feel bad about my technique about trying to get rid of the wart.

SPEAKER_02 18:33

Ew.

SPEAKER_01 18:34

I know. Sorry, y'all.

SPEAKER_02 18:35

This is a whole something about me. Why haven't we gotten far enough in science to not have those anymore?

SPEAKER_01 18:44

Planter's warts? I know they shouldn't even say I would take a pill for that so fast.

SPEAKER_02 18:49

I think about that all the time.

SPEAKER_01 18:50

Okay, this is like I would take a headache and diarrhea to get rid of a planter's wart. Because those things don't get they do not go away. Give me a list of side effects and I would do it.

SPEAKER_02 19:00

Like, do you ever think about like what kinds of things you would do a trial vaccine for? Because like what's yours? Uh the stomach bug.

SPEAKER_00 19:09

Oh.

SPEAKER_02 19:10

Not not one that like it's possible that I could actually get sick, but like if they're like, this works and it's brand new.

SPEAKER_01 19:17

You shouldn't do the trial.

SPEAKER_02 19:18

Don't know, not the trial, but like brand, sorry. You know what I mean? It's like it's brand new. We know it works. Okay, yes. But like we don't know long-term side effects. Oh, oh, I see. I'd be like, I don't care. Give it to me.

SPEAKER_01 19:30

To like give other people.

SPEAKER_02 19:31

I don't care if it makes me die at age like 83 guaranteed.

SPEAKER_01 19:35

They have that one good nausea medicine that Emily travels with, or sister. Um, I have a checks. No, that's my circle medicine. You also don't leave the house without that.

SPEAKER_02 19:44

I don't leave the house without that.

SPEAKER_01 19:46

Listen, if you're ever caught on a vacation with Caroline and she has a cold sore outbreak, you better go home. Buckle up. Because you're not gonna stop hearing about it. You sure aren't. It stresses her out.

SPEAKER_02 19:58

I did fine the last time we were in Beauford and I had one. No one even knew. I didn't know. How quiet I was about it, and I kept being like, Meredith, I have a cold sore. Stop drinking after me. You're right. So you've gotten better. I have because I always overdose on Altrax every time I take like double the record.

SPEAKER_01 20:18

Okay, yes, yes, yes. Okay, yes. Then I will I redact my last statement.

SPEAKER_02 20:23

Um We're just here being open and on it.

SPEAKER_01 20:26

Yeah, you know about bottom of my feet. Okay, so what other what we were gonna talk about other things that age well? What did you have on your list?

SPEAKER_02 20:35

Um, okay, I wanted to talk about because we have started to talk about this before and have been like, no, no, no, let's save this for the podcast. But 90s diets.

SPEAKER_01 20:47

Yes. The only one I know about is a special K diet.

SPEAKER_02 20:50

South Beach Bits.

Small Talk Settings: Matchmaking Service Pros

SPEAKER_01 21:04

I love cottage cheese. I never quit her.

SPEAKER_02 21:07

I don't love cottage cheese. It really freaks me out. But then that viral TikTok thing when it came out where it was like ground meat with cottage cheese, avocado, and honey. Sick. And I ate it. And I loved it. You ate her? Oh, cool. Oh, and sweet potato. And I ate it. And it's honestly kind of good. Like I enjoyed it.

SPEAKER_01 21:29

SPEAKER_01 21:38

Like too much protein?

SPEAKER_02 21:40

SPEAKER_01 21:45

Too many soft foods.

SPEAKER_02 21:46

Yeah, I was a little unwell.

SPEAKER_01 21:49

Yeah. I had a boss that had to go home one time because he had too many soft foods for lunch. Why did he tell you that? I don't know.

SPEAKER_02 21:56

Is it the same one that would eat fiber or drink fiber in the morning and all the time? No, that's a different one.

SPEAKER_01 22:00

I just want to say he This is the one that I told that I had indigestion and he shamed me for it, but then he's over there telling me he ate too many soft foods.

SPEAKER_02 22:07

That's another have we already asked the crowd if indigestion So many times. Okay, is it something? Have we ever gotten a few more? We never found out.

SPEAKER_01 22:14

We've never found out.

SPEAKER_02 22:16

Like, I don't think I need to be that embarrassed of my indigestion. Everyone guessed it.

SPEAKER_01 22:20

You had it earlier tonight. I did. You said I gotta take a Tums. Did you take a Tums?

SPEAKER_02 22:24

I didn't. It went away. I drink bubbly water.

SPEAKER_01 22:27

Okay.

SPEAKER_02 22:28

Um Okay.

SPEAKER_01 22:30

Special Kis. The special K diet is genius marketing. Okay.

SPEAKER_02 22:41

And we were on our family was doing it because it was like It literally was like, okay, there's a new diet. It's where you just eat our cereal for everyone. Every meal.

SPEAKER_01 22:54

And we were like, sign us up.

SPEAKER_02 22:56

Which we were already kind of doing anyway, because we were a cereal family. Yeah. I don't know if that's common, but we had cereal for breakfast and dinner. Um probably couple times a week. A couple times a week, yeah. Yeah. If our mom said tonight's every man for himself, that meant go fix yourself a bowl of cereal. Yeah. And now that I'm thinking about this, I'm like, why don't I do that more?

SPEAKER_01 23:17

I know. We do it.

SPEAKER_02 23:19

We don't ever do that.

SPEAKER_01 23:20

Yeah, we do it sometimes. It's great.

SPEAKER_02 23:24

I need to really get into that because I it didn't affect me in a poor way at all.

SPEAKER_01 23:31

No, it was great.

SPEAKER_02 23:32

I feel like that was a great childhood memory.

SPEAKER_01 23:35

It was great. Loved it. Um but yeah, but uh then dad was on and off South Beach. And he would make that nasty chocolate chocolates and quotations, chocolate ice cream cottage cheese? It was probably cottage cheese, and it was runny. Like he put it in the freezer. What we gotta ask him what that was. Wait, I'm gonna look it up.

SPEAKER_02 24:00

Okay, so but then I I need to go back to the special K thing really fast because it really was such genius marketing.

SPEAKER_01 24:08

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 24:09

Like special K.

SPEAKER_01 24:10

They bamboozled all of us.

SPEAKER_02 24:11

They bamboozled everyone. And I'm like, what is happening now that is doing the same thing to us? Like all the vitamin brands.

SPEAKER_01 24:19

Like, yeah, I mean, like, there's just every turn, every corner you turn around is like something being like, this is gonna change your life. Change your life. And you know who falls for every single one? My husband.

SPEAKER_02 24:29

Oh, we have one that like backfired Hewell.

SPEAKER_01 24:36

Hewell, D-H-U-E-L.

SPEAKER_02 24:39

Hewell gives your tummy hail.

SPEAKER_01 24:43

Yes, it does. Just lots of air in there to the point where it was painful, and he looked it up, and it was like every single person who did Heel was like, my stomach is wrecked.

SPEAKER_02 24:58

Gosh.

SPEAKER_01 24:59

Like debilitating.

SPEAKER_02 25:01

And what did they think it was gonna do?

unknown 25:03

Like, I don't know.

SPEAKER_01 25:05

I think it was like a vitamin protein powder or something, and we got like a huge bag of it in this dumb water bottle that made no sense. It was a water bottle that opened halfway down.

SPEAKER_02 25:17

No, you did another one of those one time. I did!

SPEAKER_01 25:20

Which one was it?

SPEAKER_02 25:21

It's like the powder one.

SPEAKER_01 25:22

It was like veggie powder or something. No, it wasn't veggie powder.

SPEAKER_02 25:26

But you gave me a bunch of yours.

SPEAKER_01 25:28

Those were fine. But anytime I subscribe to anything, I can't I never keep it up because I don't want that coming out of my budget every month.

SPEAKER_02 25:36

I know, right? Yeah. But and the special K wasn't really like that because you could just buy four boxes every time you went to the show.

SPEAKER_01 25:42

Alright, are y'all ready for this South Beach diet? Yeah. Oh gosh. This can't be it. Wait. This can't be it. We gotta we'd have to ask Dad if this is it. One sugar-free fudge sickle. Oh my gosh. Two tablespoons of peanut butter and two to three tablespoons of cool whip.

SPEAKER_02 26:01

That's not it. And also, that's not healthy.

SPEAKER_01 26:04

That's the thing with these diets, though. They were like only focused on one ingredient. It wasn't like it was like in the 90s, everyone was getting rid of rid of fat. Like good fat, bad fat. Fat was like the ultimate enemy. That's good for you. But we didn't we at yes, we found out later when everyone cut it out of everything, and then everyone was like losing bone density or whatever. And then wick went to no carbs. Like in the 2000s it was low carb.

SPEAKER_02 26:29

Okay.

SPEAKER_01 26:29

So every like and now I feel like our all of our things are like probiotic, prebiotic, all your vitamins, and I you're still cutting calorie. I think now it's like more calories. You're trying to like my god. And I just eat what I want.

SPEAKER_02 26:42

I eat, yeah.

SPEAKER_01 26:43

Well, and it's just like you're never I try to just find a little balance in my day.

SPEAKER_02 26:49

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 26:49

You know?

SPEAKER_02 26:51

Yeah. I'm just like, you're never going to be able to keep up. I'd rather do the special K diet.

SPEAKER_01 26:57

I know.

SPEAKER_02 26:58

Let's just go back to that.

SPEAKER_01 26:59

I I, you know, of all the things people were doing, I feel like that might have been one of the healthier ones. It's a lot of sugar.

SPEAKER_02 27:05

Our dad also went through this phase where he was on the Daniel diet. What's that? Or the Daniel plan. It was like a biblically based diet.

SPEAKER_01 27:15

When was this?

SPEAKER_02 27:16

I guess you were out of the house already. My God. Our dad, something about our dad is that like he is a all or nothing. All or nothing. Bandwagoner's not like the right word, but like he jumps on a trend. Yes.

SPEAKER_01 27:32

And he'll tell you about it.

SPEAKER_02 27:34

We like have an inside joke, and I say this really lovingly because he's one of a kind person, but he we have this joke in our family because he got so obsessed with flonets. It was like the cure-all for allergies. And he like kept telling all of us separately several times how to use it. Yeah. He's like, you don't snort it now. You just spray a little bit in there, and then you pinch your nose a little bit. And then finally we're all like, what's up with dad and the flonet? So we heard a lot about the South Beach and the Daniel plant.

SPEAKER_01 28:14

He's do he's we he has some kind of vitamin on the counter right now.

SPEAKER_02 28:17

I thought that was mom's. It's like IMB8.

SPEAKER_01 28:20

I think it's I said I think it's like the older generation's um veggie powder. Yeah. What what's the veggie powder we're getting at for all the freaking time? No, it's AG1. Yes. I think it's like AG1, but being marketed to a different demographic, essentially. And it's red. It's like the it's like the exact opposite of the Yeah, ours is green.

SPEAKER_02 28:40

That's so funny.

SPEAKER_01 28:41

I know.

SPEAKER_02 28:42

Anyway. Okay, but back to the Daniel plan thing. I feel like this is kind of an interesting segue into the trend right now of eating meats on wooden cutting boards, which we didn't know was a thing. But our friend told us about this, like a trend. Is it a trend? I don't think it's a good idea.

SPEAKER_01 29:04

I think it's just like a like a macho guy Instagram thing. But like or like TikTok thing.

SPEAKER_02 29:12

They're just like eating meat like raw. Not raw, like steaks.

SPEAKER_01 29:18

Why are they eating off of the board? That's a good question.

SPEAKER_02 29:21

It's like more like steaks and avocados on a wooden cutting board, but it's like a thing, apparently. It's like a status symbol or something. It's weird. But then we found this guy who was doing it that we were convinced is like actually 12.

SPEAKER_01 29:39

Yeah, but in his whole bio's like, I'm 18, I promise. Look at my ID. He has a picture of his ID on his highlights. He's not 18. You don't think? I just think that screams I'm not 18. Anyway, you don't know anything about the Daniel diet? I did not think. What the heck is the Daniel diet?

SPEAKER_02 30:00

Biblically based diet.

SPEAKER_01 30:01

You eat milk and honey and manna?

SPEAKER_02 30:04

Based on what Daniel ate.

SPEAKER_01 30:06

What did Daniel eat? Grains?

SPEAKER_02 30:11

I don't know what Daniel ate. Does anyone know what Daniel ate?

SPEAKER_01 30:15

Did he And wasn't Daniel if Daniel was eating it, wasn't everyone else in that time?

SPEAKER_02 30:20

I don't know, but I'm also like, did he write down his diet in the world? I know what is happening. I don't remember anyone writing a diet plan down.

SPEAKER_01 30:30

Also, I randomly listened to this part of the Bible today where the mana comes up from the ground. It's like the mana part. Have you ever heard it described?

SPEAKER_02 30:39

No.

SPEAKER_01 30:40

It's really gross.

SPEAKER_02 30:42

It's like Isn't it like moldy or something?

Daniel Plan To Cutting Board Meat Culture

SPEAKER_01 30:44

No, it like there's like all these quail on the ground in the morning, and then the quail fly away, and they said it looked like dew on the ground, but it was manna. But all I could think of was dandruff. They said it was like flaky white, like pieces of like quail dandruff. Quail dandruff. That's what it is. No, I don't think so. But it it doesn't sound appetizing. Like I would be pissed too if I was eating that for 40 years. Forty years. 40 years. Anyway, that's a whole nother segue, but fun fact. The mana diet.

SPEAKER_02 31:23

But yes, I think that there's so many weird fads of things that I think aren't going to age well.

SPEAKER_00 31:29

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 31:30

Like the diet where people are like only eating meat from the city.

SPEAKER_01 31:35

Oh, what like the caveman diet that they're calling it? And I'm like, they're just eating like meat and veggies.

SPEAKER_02 31:40

No veggies. There's some people that are literally only eating meat. And I'm like, okay, that's fine if that's like all that you like, but you probably fart so much.

SPEAKER_01 31:50

Or not, or like, or your stomach is a freaking regular.

SPEAKER_02 31:58

Okay, yes, probably, because vegans are probably farting all the time. Oh, wait.

SPEAKER_01 32:02

They're regular.

SPEAKER_02 32:03

Remember the video like this. You have the girl being like eight-hour road trip snacks.

unknown 32:09

Oh yes.

SPEAKER_02 32:10

It was like sardines and boiled eggs. Okay. A whole like 24 of boiled boiled eggs and sardines and like cherry jello. Homemade chemicals. Yeah, cherry jello.

SPEAKER_00 32:24

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 32:24

And everyone in the comments was like eight-hour fart trip. But it reminded me of the time that I went on a safari.

SPEAKER_01 32:33

Oh, yes. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 32:35

In Africa.

SPEAKER_01 32:36

Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_02 32:37

And I was so I was like there doing mission stuff. And at the end of it, they're like, okay, we're gonna take everyone on a safari as a surprise. We're all like, yay! And they're like, okay, but it's a long drive, so everyone buckle up and like everyone, there's there was like a group of people that made snacks for everyone. Okay, keep in mind, we're on the equator. Such a funny way to say it's so hot. So hot. We're on a charter bus with about 20 people. And guess what the snack was for this long ride to a safari? A boiled egg and a tuna fish sandwich.

SPEAKER_01 33:21

And wasn't it like not even it wasn't like a safari where like the oh, you're not like in a jeep.

SPEAKER_02 33:27

We get to the safari, and I'm already like, get me off this effing bus. It smells like fish and eggs. It's hot as hell. I'm car sick, and they're like, mmm, there's too many of you guys. You're gonna have to go on the safari in the bus. So we're just riding through the freaking safari lands in a chart, hot, fishy, eggy charter bus. Like an eight-passenger? A bigger. Oh.

SPEAKER_01 33:57

Bigger.

SPEAKER_02 33:57

We got stuck. We got stuck.

SPEAKER_01 33:59

Oh no. Like in the sand.

SPEAKER_02 34:01

We all had to get out and put them on. We barely saw any animals. I think we saw. They were like, something stinks.

SPEAKER_03 34:10

The animals are like.

SPEAKER_02 34:13

What is that pungent fish smell? Um, but then we also saw a some animal with a giant boner. Oh. And like half of the I didn't know what was going on.

SPEAKER_01 34:26

I think that's a what? I think that's a guarantee on a safari. Like you see a giant boner at some point.

SPEAKER_02 34:33

Like a bingo card.

SPEAKER_01 34:34

Yeah. Yeah, that happened to me in the Dominican Republic. We weren't on a safari. We were at a hotel. We were at a hotel.

SPEAKER_02 34:44

What'd you see? What are you doing?

SPEAKER_01 34:46

A horse.

Fad Diet Logic Vs Real Life

SPEAKER_02 34:51

I hated it. I hated it. I hated it. What kind of animal did you see? I think it was an elephant. Oh my gosh. It was really stupid. I've seen it, I've seen that at the zoo. Maybe. But okay, we told these, we told this girl, like while we were watching it. We were like, not that, but while we were like looking out the window of the safari, we were like, oh my gosh, this is where the Lion King was filmed. And she was like, no way. Like she like really thought that we were where the Lion King was filmed.

SPEAKER_01 35:21

Baby, it's a cartoon. We need a little rewatch.

SPEAKER_02 35:27

I know. I know. So that was a great safari.

SPEAKER_01 35:29

Was she the same one that didn't know what the boner was? Yeah. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 35:32

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 35:32

Didn't get out.

SPEAKER_02 35:33

Which, like, what a great life.

SPEAKER_01 35:35

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 35:36

No questions asked about much.

SPEAKER_01 35:39

Yeah. Okay. I have a few things that I would like to address that don't have they will not find a place on any other episode. They're very random.

SPEAKER_02 35:46

Okay. I have one too that I thought of yesterday.

SPEAKER_01 35:48

Okay. One, Oshkosh trucks.

SPEAKER_02 35:50

Okay. Yeah. Did that exist?

SPEAKER_01 35:54

No, no, no. Are they related to Oshkosh baby clothes?

SPEAKER_02 35:58

Wait, do Oshkosh trucks really exist?

SPEAKER_01 36:01

Yes, I've seen I see them all the time on the road. They're like Oshkosh 18 wheelers. The logo is like different, but the same enough that I'm like, are these like what is what is it? What is the Oshkosh trucks? They're not delivering baby clothes. They look very industrial.

SPEAKER_02 36:18

Are you sure?

SPEAKER_01 36:19

I'm positive.

SPEAKER_02 36:20

They're not filled with teeny tiny whittle walls.

SPEAKER_01 36:24

You know, I could Google it, but I never have. Okay, my other thing. My other question is how do you feel about a pretzel bun?

SPEAKER_02 36:33

I never choose it every time I avoid them at all costs.

SPEAKER_01 36:37

Restaurants are always like, we have pretzel buns. And I think every time who is choosing asking about who a who wants this?

SPEAKER_02 36:46

No one. I don't want it. I don't want it. I thought that honestly recently.

SPEAKER_01 36:50

You know who has one right now? Chick-fil-A. I don't want a pretzel bun.

SPEAKER_02 36:54

Chick-fil-A. I like your bun. I like your regular ass bun.

SPEAKER_01 36:58

I've just never eaten a soft pretzel and thought I want more food on this.

SPEAKER_02 37:01

I know. And like all a soft pretzel needs is a little salt and mustard.

SPEAKER_01 37:05

I know. Okay, I'm glad we're on the same page because Yeah, I think it's so stupid.

SPEAKER_02 37:08

I saw it in the Chick-fil-A line the other day and I thought the same exact thing I said. Who asked for that?

SPEAKER_01 37:13

I know.

SPEAKER_02 37:13

Who said who typed in to Chick-fil-A and said, I want a pretzel bun?

SPEAKER_01 37:18

I don't know. You know what I mean? It's one of the greatest mysteries of this world.

SPEAKER_02 37:21

I want them to make mac and cheese be a kid's meal.

SPEAKER_01 37:25

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 37:26

So that I can get mac and cheese and fruits.

SPEAKER_01 37:28

I know. That's all my kids want.

SPEAKER_02 37:30

Same. We should write in. We should. Clearly it works. Someone wrote in about a dang pretzel bun.

SPEAKER_01 37:35

No. Okay, that's so in- I've never voiced that opinion, but I've I just think pretzel buns are the worst.

SPEAKER_02 37:42

Yeah. Me too.

SPEAKER_01 37:43

I don't want it.

SPEAKER_02 37:44

Me neither.

SPEAKER_01 37:45

Bagel? Yes.

SPEAKER_02 37:47

But like a bagel sandwich, not like a bagel chicken sandwich.

SPEAKER_01 37:51

Yeah, I know.

SPEAKER_02 37:52

I want a bagel like a big bag.

SPEAKER_01 37:53

Although Chick-fil-A does have that bagel breakfast sandwich. That's different.

SPEAKER_02 37:57

If it's breakfast.

SPEAKER_01 37:58

Oh, okay, yeah. I mean, it's no different than the well, it has an egg on it. Yeah. I again I digress. Okay, what was your thing?

Safari Snacks, Heat, And Absurdity

SPEAKER_02 38:06

My thing is those stupid little BMWs that can't decide if they want to be a car or an SUV.

SPEAKER_01 38:17

I saw one of those for the first time today on my way here.

SPEAKER_02 38:20

I see them all the time, and Jay and I are always like a little bit more. They're like little meet me.

SPEAKER_01 38:24

They like look like little hatchbacks.

SPEAKER_02 38:25

It's like a BMW hatchback. It's literally like a SUV car. Like or like little car mixed with an SUV. Like I can't figure out what it's trying to be.

SPEAKER_01 38:36

I saw one of those today, and I thought I've never seen one of those before.

SPEAKER_02 38:39

What were your thoughts?

SPEAKER_01 38:40

I thought at first that's kind of cute, and then I thought, who would drive that?

SPEAKER_02 38:43

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 38:43

Because I was like, oh, that'd be kind of a cute mom car, and then I was like, no, it's too small.

SPEAKER_02 38:47

And it's weird. I also am not a hatchpad girly, so like maybe that's why I'm always like does not know what it wants to be.

SPEAKER_01 38:54

I sometimes think it'd be really cool to have a wood panel station wagon for my like around town car.

SPEAKER_02 39:01

Yeah, but it that's not a hatchback. That's not a hatchback. That's like an SUV.

SPEAKER_01 39:05

No. Station wagon's not on the SUV, I don't think. It's like low to the ground.

SPEAKER_02 39:11

It's like a it's kind of like an outback.

SPEAKER_01 39:14

See, isn't that a hatchback? What's a hatchback?

SPEAKER_02 39:17

I think of like those weird little Hondas that like look like a ladybug.

SPEAKER_01 39:22

Yeah. Okay.

SPEAKER_02 39:25

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 39:26

Well, that's all I got tonight.

SPEAKER_02 39:27

Same. We really talked everyone's ear off about it.

SPEAKER_01 39:31

We really turned our moods around.

SPEAKER_02 39:32

It did. It really did. We started being like we were grumpy. We were grumpy. And I just laughed more than I have in like the past three days. I know. Thanks. Sorry, everyone, if that was like kind of gross in some parts.

SPEAKER_01 39:47

I think it was just real.

SPEAKER_02 39:48

Yeah. So if anyone out there has a planner's wart or a cold sore or a tummy full of gas. A tummy full of gas from something that an influencer sold them on Instagram. Just know that you're not alone. And that's what you're not alone. Is always someone out there that can relate to your story.

SPEAKER_01 40:07

Yep. See you next Tuesday. Next Tuesday.
