[00:00:47] Speaker A: I've been good, man. How you been? [00:00:48] Speaker B: I'm. Why you, why'd you say it like that? [00:00:51] Speaker A: Because I, I, I, there's a reason why I got Kyoki sitting over here next to me. I got my service animal right here. Cuz I think there's some pain in the air and I have to, I gotta ask you, man, you. [00:01:02] Speaker B: Oh, I don't know what I did. [00:01:04] Speaker A: Football season is over. Yeah, it's done. It's over with. [00:01:08] Speaker B: Done for our teams. [00:01:09] Speaker A: Yeah, completely. [00:01:11] Speaker B: Yeah. Yeah, we, we can look forward to the super bowl, but yeah, our teams are done. Ain't no playoffs happening. [00:01:17] Speaker A: I heard you make a comment the other day where you said you are done with the Falcons. And I, and I, I ever since I've known you, ever since I've met you, you've always had the Falcon gear on. You've always had the, the thing. Even when we go golfing. [00:01:34] Speaker B: Yeah. Like I'm decked out covers. [00:01:36] Speaker A: Yeah. It's all, it's red and black. Got the Falcons on you got the thing. Everything's like you about as die hard as a Falcon fan that I remember that I know when I first met you. Yeah, you about as die hard on the, on the Falcons as I am on the Raiders. [00:01:49] Speaker B: Yeah, I, I think I know. [00:01:52] Speaker A: You came in and you. And it almost broke like, and I'm not even, I'm not a Falcon fan, but it almost broke my heart. It almost broke it. It almost did. To see somebody. I felt like you gave up when you said it. It felt like you gave up on him. Like you was like, you know what? I'm done with him. I'm Walk. Cuz as a Raider fan, I have witnessed that. I have witnessed people walk away from the Raiders like, I'm done. They don't win nothing. They don't do nothing. They don't. And me, I'm not, I'm not taking that shield off. I'm, I, I'm a straight. I don't care if we owe an 18 every single year. But when you said that, it made me sad. Cause I'm like, I don't want to see anybody get pulled away from who they support and what they support. [00:02:33] Speaker B: No, I, I appreciate the concern. This is going to be the fastest conversation. I didn't physically mean, like, I'm switching teams. When I said I was done, I meant like, I'm done with them for this season. Like, I'm not, I'm not investing. Like, when I said that, it was because all we had to do. Well, not all we had to do, but we needed to win to get into the playoffs. And we lost. And we lost in typical fashion. Poor clock management, poor play calling. Plus they already teed me off because we signed Kirk Cousins and then we also got a quarterback in the first round. We could have got another weapon. And now I'm hearing talks that we're going to get rid of Kirk cousins to save $10 million. But guess what? We still owe that man 40 something million. It's like you owe somebody 55 million but you gonna save 10. But you're still gonna owe 44. [00:03:27] Speaker A: Correct? [00:03:27] Speaker B: Like, it ain't. What are we doing? So that's what I meant by like, I was done. Like, I'm not, I'm not gonna look into. [00:03:33] Speaker A: I'm just bringing. Cause it just. You didn't just say that around me. You said that around other people too. And like, even the other people looked around like Zach. Like, Zach looked around and was just like, what Did I just hear Twitty say that? [00:03:45] Speaker B: And I'm like, if you, if you ask my wife, though, that's a typical phrase. I say I'm done. And then the next day I'll buy some Falcon apparel. I also am never going to quit on my team because I've given so many of my friends smack for being bandwagons that the moment I do it, I'll live. I'll be hearing that from the time I die. Go back to the afterlife. If I came back, they would talk about it again. [00:04:09] Speaker A: I'm telling you on my tombstone, I want a Raider shield on my tombstone. [00:04:13] Speaker B: So I appreciate the concern, but that's a phrase I Say, and I'm like a kid with amnesia. I will say that, and the very next day, I will be rooting for them. Like, if literally I say that now, and if I got a report that we somehow got out of the dead cat with Kirk Cousins, I would be talking about how it's the greatest decision the Falcons ever made. [00:04:33] Speaker A: I just want to make sure. [00:04:34] Speaker B: I appreciate. [00:04:36] Speaker A: I'm not a Falcons fan in any way, but I don't like watching people jump from their teams. I kind of want to put them back on it. Like, nah, you need. When they down and out like that, that's how you got to support. [00:04:46] Speaker B: I will cuss them out. I will act like I will disown them. But if somebody talks smack, it's like having a sibling. You hate them, you can't stand them. But if somebody else wants to talk smack, that's how I am with the Falcon. Okay, I got talk smack about them. [00:05:01] Speaker A: I got you. [00:05:01] Speaker B: But the moment somebody else start talking smack, I just don't, I just don't. [00:05:05] Speaker A: Want to see you, and I don't ever want to see you lose support for, for what you do. Like, I, I, I, I respect that. As a football fan. I appreciate it when you, when you do that and that. And that's like, you know what? I, I've seen it before. I've seen them jump. I've seen people look at it and just go, I think when you use the word done. [00:05:21] Speaker B: Yes. [00:05:22] Speaker A: That that was what triggered that. It was like, I'm done. Like, I've heard that before. And people have actually walked away from their team using that word. [00:05:29] Speaker B: That's a very. My wife would tell you, we've been married six years. She would tell you, I've been done with the Falcons probably at least 15 times a year, and every year, I still buy more apparel. I always say, this is the year. I always am pumped to wear a jersey. And every time we get a win, I'll shove it in your face. If we lose, I don't want you to talk to me because I might knock you out. I use the word done a lot. I use the word done like the word. [00:05:51] Speaker A: The, you know, as, as, as a. When I used. What I used to do as, as a comedian was like, every time the game was on Sunday. [00:05:57] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:05:58] Speaker A: There was an open mic on Monday, and we used to go to these open mics on Monday, and we'd go there as comedians. Now, my thing was, if my team lost, I, I wore the jersey on Monday. I wore my jerseys on Monday to Support my boys that I know y'all lost, but I'm still here. [00:06:16] Speaker B: That's when it matters. Yep. [00:06:18] Speaker A: There was one year I wore that thing damn near every Monday, and I sat there like, man, but I'm saying I'm not leaving. That's what I'm saying. So when you said done, I maybe I jumped to conclusions, but I wanted to make sure. [00:06:31] Speaker B: But that was the first time I, like, they really ticked. Like, that's. I became. I don't try to be. I got you a emotional fan, but it's hard, and I got two emotions. [00:06:44] Speaker A: Well, because you invested in the team is what I'm saying, so. And I get that. So that's what I'm saying. When I hear done like, I'm. I'm thinking, okay, yeah, no, he's out. [00:06:52] Speaker B: I'm also cheap. And the way I look at it is if I'm done with them, then all that money I spent, I got to re up and spend that money on a whole nother team. [00:07:01] Speaker A: Right, right, right. [00:07:02] Speaker B: So I'm also. I'm never going to do it. I'm also cheap, and I also can't because I got too many. [00:07:06] Speaker A: Yeah. I couldn't imagine going through my house and getting rid of all my Raiders stuff so I can replace it with another team. Like, that's too much money. It's too much investment. [00:07:17] Speaker B: If I was going to switch, I needed to switch in eighth or ninth grade. [00:07:20] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:07:20] Speaker B: That's when I easily. [00:07:21] Speaker A: Fan easily. [00:07:22] Speaker B: Once I hit college, I'm like, this is it. We riding well. [00:07:24] Speaker A: I just. That. I just want to get that off my chest real quick. I know you were about to start the topic and everything, but I was just like, man, I was a little concerned. [00:07:31] Speaker B: I was. It's. I appreciate it. I appreciate it because. Yeah. But no, if you ever hear me say I'm done, if you follow me on Twitter X or Instagram, if I say I'm done, Falcon Nation, Dirty Bird Nation, I'm not done. I might be done for, like, that day, but I'll be back. [00:07:46] Speaker A: And I guarantee you there's fans out there that 100 agree with what everybody understands. [00:07:51] Speaker B: All of them. [00:07:52] Speaker A: Like, oh, yeah, I've been done, too. Yo. I was done week eight. [00:07:55] Speaker B: Exactly. And here I am, week nine. We got hope for the playoffs. I'm back on that bandwagon. [00:07:59] Speaker A: Right. [00:08:01] Speaker B: So appreciate the concern. I know you've had this. [00:08:05] Speaker A: What's that? [00:08:08] Speaker B: Was it yesterday? Yesterday it hit me that my grooming of my body. [00:08:15] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:08:16] Speaker B: Has evolved. [00:08:17] Speaker A: Oh. [00:08:18] Speaker B: Like, I. I think I get ready for bed longer than my wife. Now, like, I remember in high school and in college, to shower and get ready for bed was seven minutes. [00:08:30] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:08:31] Speaker B: Two three minute shower. [00:08:32] Speaker A: And that's. That's even longer for military showers. [00:08:34] Speaker B: Yeah. But shower, take care of the business, brush your teeth, go to bed. [00:08:39] Speaker A: Okay. [00:08:40] Speaker B: Now I just did it the other day because I got a haircut. Wash my hair with a shampoo. [00:08:47] Speaker A: Okay. [00:08:48] Speaker B: Then I washed my beard with a whole totally different shampoo, shampoo and conditioner. [00:08:52] Speaker A: I'm with you. [00:08:53] Speaker B: Then in high school, I used to just take the rag and the bar soap and just wash my face. No. Now I got this deep cleansing, like, acne protector. [00:09:06] Speaker A: The exfoliator. Yeah. [00:09:07] Speaker B: It's got the little hard stuff in it when you rub your hands. [00:09:10] Speaker A: Oh, it's like sand. [00:09:11] Speaker B: Yep, I have that. But I can't let that touch the beard because then it takes away from the shampoo. [00:09:17] Speaker A: Okay, I got you. [00:09:18] Speaker B: So I do that. Then I have two. I have two different types of body wash. So if I've just gotten from working outside or went to the gym, I have my deep cleanser that I clean off all that excess sweat and all that. But if I'm just waking up in the morning to shower and then I have my bath and body works. [00:09:43] Speaker A: Okay, now you doing the most teakwood? [00:09:47] Speaker B: Well, the teakwood is expensive, so I can't be using that every time I'm like, just hit the gym. Like, I don't. I don't need to be. I don't need to be going to bed smelling that. [00:09:54] Speaker A: You did. But you just said you got two shower gels. Yeah. Nah, I think you're doing the most then. [00:10:00] Speaker B: We're not. So that's just in the shower. [00:10:01] Speaker A: Oh. [00:10:02] Speaker B: And then when I get out, I always apply baby oil. Then. [00:10:05] Speaker A: Okay. [00:10:06] Speaker B: When it comes to getting ready, brush my teeth, floss. But now I use an electric toothbrush. I used to just use a regular toothbrush. I got told I had to because I was brushing too hard. I was brushing my gums. [00:10:19] Speaker A: Gotcha. [00:10:20] Speaker B: I brush in fear. I hate the dentist so much. I brush hard. [00:10:23] Speaker A: You brush to keep him away? Yes. [00:10:25] Speaker B: Literally, like, if I was to think about not brushing my teeth, I like, tell myself, we need to get in there. [00:10:33] Speaker A: See? [00:10:33] Speaker B: And I heard, the next thing I want is the minute you said that. [00:10:36] Speaker A: I'm sorry, but the minute you said that, I just heard everybody watching right now. I just heard him sit there and go, yeah, if Sean would have done that, he probably would have still had his Two front teeth. But anyway, anyway, I heard a couple of y'all say that. [00:10:46] Speaker B: I'm just saying they probably like. Man, how do you hear that? [00:10:50] Speaker A: Yeah, I heard it. All right, go ahead. I'm sorry. [00:10:52] Speaker B: No, you're good. So I do that. Then I have my. Is it Neutrogena? Neutrogena. Hydration boost for my skin. So it's supposed to. So I've already exfoliated it. Now it helps open the pores even more for at night. Because at night is. Apparently, it's going to dry up then I have my grease for my hair. I have the grease for my beard, and I think that's it. [00:11:13] Speaker A: This is it. Before you go to sleep? [00:11:14] Speaker B: Yes. [00:11:15] Speaker A: No, no. [00:11:17] Speaker B: But I don't do that every night. I do all of that when I take a show. Like when I get a haircut. [00:11:22] Speaker A: If you don't do that every night, give me for the week. How many days out of the week do you do that? Out of seven days. [00:11:27] Speaker B: Out of seven days. Two to three. Because I'm. No, I wash my hair two to three times a week. I only do it twice, but if I have, like, in the summer, I do it 3. If I've gone, like, camping and then, like, two days later, been outside all day doing yard. [00:11:41] Speaker A: They always say the number you admit to being the highest is usually one lower, so that means it's one higher. So if you say two to three, I'm going to say four. No, I'm going to say four out of seven. There's only three days. You don't do that. And I think there's four days during the week. [00:11:56] Speaker B: Nope. I don't wash my hair four times during the week. Because I read that's bad for your hair. [00:12:01] Speaker A: I would know. [00:12:02] Speaker B: There was a point I did wash it for. I used to wash it every day. Then I heard that was bad. Bad because you're getting rid of your oils and all that. [00:12:09] Speaker A: Okay, yeah, I mean, I get that. [00:12:10] Speaker B: I really do. Like two to three. But I remember growing up, I think I would wash my hair once a week. I didn't have no facial hair, so you took that out. I would just take a bar of soap and a rag and just scrub my face hard. And then I put lotion on. But by putting lotion on, I would literally just squirt it and literally make three big circles in my hand. [00:12:29] Speaker A: Right. [00:12:29] Speaker B: Lathering. And just. And just let it dry. And I was in bed, and now I'm. I'm, like, in the bed. I'm in the I'm in the bathroom and it's like 9:00. And when I get out, it's like 9:15, 9:20. [00:12:42] Speaker A: Right, right, right. [00:12:43] Speaker B: So I was like. I had to ask. Like, obviously yours probably has evolved, but I was just like, when did this happen? Like, it just. [00:12:50] Speaker A: All this commercialism, I guess, all this. All this stuff that's out there right now for all this skin care and health care and all this stuff that's out there now. Like, we didn't have this growing up. Like, we didn't have no commercials and stuff that told us, hey, you know, you need moisturize your skin, exfoliate the insides of all of your follicles that are inside of your skin. I probably saying it wrong. Don't correct me, but I'm just saying, like. Like, they have all these things now for all these different stuff. And. But. [00:13:17] Speaker B: But what's crazy to me is, though, I. I didn't, like, just fall into it. Like, there was things that happened when I had to start doing it. So perfect example, I didn't start doing the whole hydration boost to my skin until my skin actually dried out. I went to Florida. I was in the water and my skin never recovered. Like, I actually looked like I was Casper the Ghost. Like, my skin was flaking. [00:13:40] Speaker A: Oh, that's ashy. [00:13:41] Speaker B: It was more than ashy. It wasn't just lotion. Like, I was hydrated. I was. I even went back to my dog on cocoa butter. And that wasn't. [00:13:48] Speaker A: I wasn't doing it. [00:13:49] Speaker B: No. So the face was because of something? [00:13:53] Speaker A: Maybe you do all this out of fear. [00:13:55] Speaker B: I do now, yeah. [00:13:56] Speaker A: So now you do all of this because you scared to come back to that point. [00:14:00] Speaker B: You can't look. You can't see it. I will share a picture so Sean, our producer in the back, can put it up. You will look at my face and you'll say, you're just ashy. I had applied lotion. I look like, almost look white. Like, that's how bad it was on my face. [00:14:15] Speaker A: Well, you ain't got to. We know that we're not even near the ocean no more. We in the middle of the mountains. Like, this should be a little bit. We got a higher elevation. [00:14:21] Speaker B: It should. Well, you know what? Like you said, I do it in fear now because I use that hydration and it fixed it in two days. [00:14:27] Speaker A: You do more than me. You do way more than me. [00:14:30] Speaker B: You probably do. I feel like you got to go in depth with the beard, because only. Pause. I've touched your beard. And it is soft and nice and like that thing is conditioned. [00:14:40] Speaker A: I can. I can tell you this. [00:14:41] Speaker B: I feel like it's like raising the kid. Like you trained that. [00:14:43] Speaker A: I can tell you this. Like in the shower. Yeah. My routines will be simple. It's. It's. I do shampoo. Yes, I know I don't have any hair, but I still use shampoo. [00:14:51] Speaker B: And I really. [00:14:52] Speaker A: And I use conditioner. And the reason why is because it helps my. It helps the scalp. The lotions and all that help, you know, so you don't get dry scalp. Now, people who shave their heads and stuff like that, like myself, that's one of the main concerns is the dry scalp and little spots will show up. [00:15:08] Speaker B: I wouldn't have thought that. I would have thought maybe. Just make sure you apply some oil. [00:15:11] Speaker A: Now I will go in to where I do have a shampoo for my beard and I have a conditioner for my beard. So when I start off with the shower, I start off with the washing my hair, letting the shampoo and stuff like that. [00:15:23] Speaker B: You always. [00:15:23] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:15:23] Speaker B: You always go top down. [00:15:25] Speaker A: And then. Yeah, and then I come in. Then. Then I. I'll start. Then I'll grab the shampoo for my beard and I'll scrub that in there. And then I'll rinse that out. And then. Then I'll go with the bar soap. I start with a bar of soap. That's my. That's my foundation. [00:15:39] Speaker B: So my bar soap. Hang on you. So there's a second shower gel or something you'll use after the bar. Then why are you giving me a hard. [00:15:47] Speaker A: Because you went from one, and then you went from two different types of shower gels. Like, you only need one. You only need one type of shower gel. That's it. [00:15:55] Speaker B: How's that different than your bar? [00:15:57] Speaker A: So. Because. Because, look, my bar of soap is my foundation. No, no, listen. My bar soap is my foundation. And. And I. And I put that on. I put that on the washcloth and I. And I go down there because that's like, you know, the bottom of my feet. Stuff like that. I'm not them type of dudes that. That. That let the water run down. [00:16:11] Speaker B: Oh, no, no. [00:16:12] Speaker A: Clean my. I need to clean my feet. [00:16:13] Speaker B: Got. [00:16:14] Speaker A: So I use the washcloth and the bar soap to get, you know, all the spots, you know, the feet and other. And other places. [00:16:20] Speaker B: You. Yeah, yeah, yeah. [00:16:21] Speaker A: You know what I'm talking about. But got to go up under. [00:16:23] Speaker B: Yeah, that's no different than my. [00:16:25] Speaker A: Okay, but that's just a foundation. That's Just that. That's just that one. And I know what you're trying to say, but I swear. [00:16:31] Speaker B: I said. [00:16:32] Speaker A: I swear. You said you use the soap and then you had two different types of soap. [00:16:36] Speaker B: No, I use. [00:16:37] Speaker A: So you use one jail to start and then one jail to finish. [00:16:40] Speaker B: Yes, it just depending. Depending on. [00:16:44] Speaker A: My bad. Yeah, my bad. [00:16:46] Speaker B: The moment you set a bar soap as well. No, he didn' it. [00:16:50] Speaker A: And I like to use. I like to use like, like zest, Irish Spring, stuff like that, that, that. I love that green. [00:16:56] Speaker B: That green bar because I feel like every. I can't even say black. Just every poverty, above average poverty family. The Irish bar is strong, man. [00:17:10] Speaker A: We had the commercial where the dude used to take the knife and he. [00:17:13] Speaker B: Would cut like a piece in that. [00:17:15] Speaker A: Commercial spring and he would. And he would say that now. But that had me hooked. I had. I was hooked. I ain't. I love Irish Spring. I like all the different types of Irish Spring. [00:17:25] Speaker B: I don't know what it is about that bar either. When you get done, you don't feel like you missed a spot. And if you did miss a spot because you didn't apply the Irish. I don't know what it was about that bar soap. [00:17:35] Speaker A: That's my base. And then I use. I got that Old Spice Shower Old Spice one that's like. I got that. I think it's called Bear Claws or something like that. I like that one. That one's a good smell. And when I. When I'm done with that, rinse everything off and I step out. Once I step out of the shower, like I only need lotion, baby powder. [00:17:54] Speaker B: Deodorant, so not no gel or anything for the beer to apply at night, you know, nothing at night. [00:18:01] Speaker A: Nothing at night. Now in the morning before I leave, I have this. There is this type of lotion that I get from Bath and Body Works. It's called the Mahogany, the teakwood, the. The one, the brown. [00:18:12] Speaker B: Those are all the shower gels I get. Those are different ones I get. [00:18:15] Speaker A: That lotion is bomb. Like I love that lotion. Shouts out to everybody that. That brought that. Cuz that's my lotion. [00:18:23] Speaker B: Yeah. Can we. It's not sidetracking, but how grooming has evolved. When did Bath and has Bath and Body Works always had a men's section. And just in the last couple of years, you know what them blew up. [00:18:37] Speaker A: I don't. [00:18:38] Speaker B: I feel like you would know. I feel like you might have been on the T because I feel like teakwood happened. [00:18:42] Speaker A: I was working. [00:18:43] Speaker B: I was 2017, 2018 when I got. [00:18:46] Speaker A: Out of the military in 1998. One of my jobs outside of the military when I came out was I was a security guard at the mall. I had to look for a job. I needed a job at kids. I got a family to support. I'm like, I needed this. I needed this job. I worked at the mall. [00:19:00] Speaker B: So Bath and Body Works. [00:19:01] Speaker A: Bath and Body Works was in there. [00:19:03] Speaker B: And Bath and Beyond. I can't. [00:19:05] Speaker A: I can't remember a man section in Bath Body Works. [00:19:08] Speaker B: That's what I'm saying. [00:19:09] Speaker A: That whole place smelled like watermelon and cucumber. Like, that whole place smelled like that. And it was. I was like, there was. But now. Yeah, if you walk in there now, there's this one section, but it's also. [00:19:19] Speaker B: Not just a corner. Like, it's. [00:19:20] Speaker A: No, it's a wall. Yeah, it's. And it's, like, in the middle of the store. It's like. And then. And then it has a different. I got hooked on it. I smelled that, and I was like, that was good teak wood, that mahogany. [00:19:33] Speaker B: Mahogany is good. But teakwood, to me, I feel like it's that. It's that, like, guilty pleasure. It's like, it smells like a man. But I'm also. I also, you know, delicate side, you. [00:19:41] Speaker A: Know, if they use teak for. [00:19:42] Speaker B: For. [00:19:42] Speaker A: Right, the teak wood, like, in real life. Yeah. [00:19:45] Speaker B: What do they use it for? [00:19:46] Speaker A: That's on boats. That's all that. That. Would that be on boats when you were, like, walking on the deck? That's teakwood. [00:19:51] Speaker B: Oh, that's that. [00:19:52] Speaker A: Good, good. [00:19:53] Speaker B: Are they wasting it on that? [00:19:54] Speaker A: No. [00:19:55] Speaker B: You need that. [00:19:56] Speaker A: Yeah, you need that teakwood. You won't go out there with pine. You put pine. You're the only one rolling around with pine. Little sticks on your boat. Yeah, yeah. It's all swollen up now, breaking off. [00:20:05] Speaker B: But, no, I. Like, I just realized that the other day. I'm like, my grooming has evolved, and I'm also bougie with it, too. Like, I'm not. I can't go cheap on my. You know what I think it is? [00:20:16] Speaker A: You know what I think it is? I think it's some inner. Inner stuff that happens when we grew up. And this is what I'm. And this is what I mean by this. I was told I couldn't touch my mom's shampoo. Touch my mom's conditioner. [00:20:27] Speaker B: Yep. [00:20:28] Speaker A: I couldn't use that. It was. What is it? Herbalife or herb? It was a Green. [00:20:32] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. [00:20:33] Speaker A: Bottle with the green top. [00:20:34] Speaker B: Yep. [00:20:34] Speaker A: I couldn't use that. I couldn't use the Suave. I couldn't use the. The Suave conditioner because it was hers. [00:20:40] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. [00:20:41] Speaker A: Suave. And when I grew up, like, I had a lot of hair. Like, my hair was long. The front of my head was below my chin, and the back of my head was below my shoulders. Like, I had long hair. So I was using all of my. But I was always told, I can't use that count. Don't use that. Don't use my lotion. Don't use this. Don't use that. And I guess maybe I thought I was missing out. So, like, now I'm like, I'm the adult, and ain't nobody gonna tell me I can't use that lotion. So I go and buy that lotion, and now it's like, I can use that. Like, I like cherry almond. Cherry almond lotion Smells good. It reminds me of my grandmother, because my grandmother, my aunties and all them all had that cherry almond Jergens lotion. It was like, Jergens. [00:21:17] Speaker B: Yeah. That's a good one. [00:21:18] Speaker A: That's the. That was, like, the main lotion in the house. It was that. And what was that one? It was a white bottle. [00:21:25] Speaker B: That was a lotion. [00:21:27] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:21:27] Speaker B: Oh, gosh. I can't remember. I feel like Suave. [00:21:31] Speaker A: No, no, no, no. [00:21:31] Speaker B: The swab was a conditioner. And I feel like they also remember in a minute. [00:21:34] Speaker A: It's. It's like a. It's a white lotion and a white bottle. Lubriderm. [00:21:39] Speaker B: Oh, yep. [00:21:40] Speaker A: That was the other one. And the Jergen stuff. Yep. And it was like the cherry almond was something that everybody. I just like that smell. But cherry almond turned me on to trying to smell, like, you know, cucumber, watermelon and cucumber. Yeah. And then strawberry and kiwi and stuff like that. It was like. I think the cherry almond as a kid is what opened me up, because now when I walk. Oh, yeah. Because now I'm like, okay, that smells good. And that smells good. [00:22:03] Speaker B: Good. [00:22:03] Speaker A: And that smells good. It's like, I want. I want to sample all of this. [00:22:06] Speaker B: Yeah, Yuko, there is. I haven't found it, but I found it was in one of the hotels I was in just a couple of weeks ago, and because, you know, now they have all those pre dispensers. [00:22:16] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:22:16] Speaker B: But they're not bougie with them anymore. It's not like the cheap stuff that when you squirt it out, it's liquid. [00:22:21] Speaker A: It's like the VO5 that you find at the dollar store. Yeah, yeah, it is. It's the. It's the pink one. And it's sitting in that little box that's right next to the shower handle. And you're just like, I want to push on this. But then when you smell it, it smells like the plastic that used to keep our toys in. When you open it, it was like, no. [00:22:40] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:22:40] Speaker A: He was like, you knew it was VO5 too. I'm sorry, everybody at VO5, I'm we. But yeah. [00:22:52] Speaker B: Trash too. Sean, make a note, man. We got to put a picture up. That bottle was ugly. That if you had that bottle, you. You knew your friend was struggling. Now what's funny is if you went. [00:23:05] Speaker A: To the grocery store, that shampoo bottle was sitting next to the. To the. To the dish soap. Like it was like VO5 Touch Palm Olive. Like you can see the green and the other green. You almost grabbed this, the dish soap, because you thought it was that. Because it was the same color. [00:23:25] Speaker B: A stop, bro. The moment you said the pink. Oh God. Everybody had that, yo. [00:23:34] Speaker A: You know it. You know they did. [00:23:35] Speaker B: We used to keep that in the. Underneath the sink in the back if. Cuz sometimes I forgot to tell my mom I was running out and she wasn't running back to the store. So she was like, you gotta use the spare. [00:23:47] Speaker A: You just didn't feel clean, did you? No. You had half the bottle in there and it made two bubbles on your head. [00:23:53] Speaker B: It's because it. It came out as like a. It was like. It was. What do you call that? Diluted? [00:23:58] Speaker A: Yeah, it was like hand soap. Yeah. It was like trying to shampoo your hair with hand soap. That's exactly what it was. [00:24:04] Speaker B: Oh my God. [00:24:05] Speaker A: You put it on your head and you got two bubbles. Cuz that's all it can make. [00:24:08] Speaker B: You can't make more than two bubbles. [00:24:10] Speaker A: You can't lather up. [00:24:12] Speaker B: Talked about that. [00:24:14] Speaker A: So I picked. That's what. How does he. [00:24:17] Speaker B: I can't get back focus, yo. That stuff scarred me. [00:24:28] Speaker A: And I think. Yeah. But if we were to come back around to why we. We take this grooming into these steps now is because of that. That's what we had. [00:24:35] Speaker B: Oh my God. [00:24:37] Speaker A: We had this V5 and we had life boys. We had life boy soap sitting on the thing. [00:24:43] Speaker B: Because that was Becca. Oh, okay. What was. Okay, that's what I was. Oh my God. [00:24:51] Speaker A: That's why our whole routine's a change. [00:24:53] Speaker B: I wasn't ready for that. Oh my God. So that's what I was gonna say. I was at. I was at the hotel with the soap dispenser and they had a eucalyptus Lavender. [00:25:07] Speaker A: Eucalyptus lavender, yes. Are you supposed to put those two flavors together? [00:25:11] Speaker B: I don't think so, but they made it work. Because the thing for me was one's. [00:25:14] Speaker A: Supposed to put you to sleep and the other one's supposed to do. [00:25:16] Speaker B: But it. Well, I don't know. I mean, I did sleep good that night. [00:25:20] Speaker A: Oh, no. Eucalyptus for your nose, help clear your sinuses, stuff like that. Okay. [00:25:24] Speaker B: But that smell, like it didn't have. It doesn't have a feminine smell. It's like a. It's a neutral smell. It's like opened up everything. Like I. So I told my wife when she goes to Bath and Body Works, if she sees in the men's section, eucalyptus. I say, I don't know if Bath Body Works going to have it. They might have something different. But I know it was eucalyptus and lavender put together and I say, I need to try that because it smelled bomb. [00:25:47] Speaker A: Do you ever get those little ones that you plug into the wall and it has those different scents too? Like, that was another thing I grabbed from that teak. [00:25:53] Speaker B: I got the. I have the air fresheners for that in the car. [00:25:55] Speaker A: Oh, they make those perfect. [00:25:57] Speaker B: So I'm just teak wood out. [00:25:59] Speaker A: But I think, yeah, I think that's what it was. I think V05 and Lifebuoy and all that made us go that way. That's the reason why we look at it and we. We don't like. It's not that, you know, it's like, I want strawberry melon. Yeah, I. I want that. Cuz I was stuck with this. [00:26:14] Speaker B: I think, I think you just summed that up. Cuz I remember numerous. I remember trying to take a bath with that VO stuff and it took half a bottle. [00:26:23] Speaker A: And. Yeah, and you. [00:26:24] Speaker B: And you still only got barely a grave soap of if you got it. [00:26:28] Speaker A: If you use V5 for bubble bath, you. All you got was oil. There was oil bubbles. There wasn't even like bubble bubbles. No, no. [00:26:37] Speaker B: It was like these oil bubbles that. [00:26:38] Speaker A: Just kind of floated on the top and didn't really do nothing. [00:26:41] Speaker B: I remember as a kid, I was. I was in the tub and I was squirting it and using my other hand to mix it because I knew the bubbles weren't going to last. Because when you get some really good bubbles, you can pour it in there, go pee, grab some water, and your bubbles are going to look nice with that. Vo you got like two minutes. [00:26:57] Speaker A: And you know what's crazy about it is he said that was his spare. Yes, that was. That was our every day. Every day was V5 and we went through it cuz I had two sisters. Long hair. I had long hair. Oh no, not last. [00:27:13] Speaker B: Thank you, mom. I was mad it was a spare but I, I don't. I don't think I would have made it having that as an everyday. [00:27:18] Speaker A: Oh, and you walked in. Yeah, we had that, we had that pink background. [00:27:24] Speaker B: Pink being the only color too. [00:27:25] Speaker A: Shower surround. And then when that boy was sitting because the shower surround was pink. So when that thing sat there, sometimes you just looked right past it. You was like, where the hell is the shampoo? Somebody take the shampoo out of here. [00:27:38] Speaker B: It's like, no, it's too. [00:27:40] Speaker A: It's right there. [00:27:41] Speaker B: My gosh. That you talk about a traumatizing throwback. Well, that's going to conclude this. I think that wrapped it up. That answered my question. So I was going to talk about how I was kind of mad about it, but after getting brought back to V2. [00:27:59] Speaker A: V5. [00:28:00] Speaker B: V5. I love being bougie with my grooming. As a matter of fact, I think everything that I open up today when I'm doing, I'll be like thank you. [00:28:07] Speaker A: Yep. [00:28:07] Speaker B: Thank you. You could be VO5. Thank you so. Oh, I can't. I can't believe we talked about that. I forgot. I can't believe I forgot about that. [00:28:16] Speaker A: I never gonna forget that is implanted in my head. I can't get it out of my head. [00:28:20] Speaker B: I think if you go to the. To a dollar tree, I think they still got it. [00:28:24] Speaker A: Oh yeah, they still got it. [00:28:25] Speaker B: I think they still do. [00:28:25] Speaker A: I still shiver when I walk down the aisle and I pass it. [00:28:28] Speaker B: Yeah, it's scary. [00:28:29] Speaker A: Especially now they got pink conditioner. [00:28:31] Speaker B: Oh no. How are they in business? [00:28:34] Speaker A: Cuz that's the real question. Dollar Store. Dollar Store. [00:28:38] Speaker B: There's a lot of things from the Dollar Tree and the Dollar Store that have died. How hasn't VO died? [00:28:43] Speaker A: Cuz it's. That's the. That's the go to at the Dollar Store, I guess. [00:28:47] Speaker B: Well it ain't going to be my. If I, if I. Oh, if I go back to that, I. I'll make sure you don't. Yeah, I'll make sure you can't let your friend know I can't do it. [00:28:56] Speaker A: I won't let you. Now that I know your routine, I'm gonna let you. I'm gonna make sure you stick to that. I'm gonna be like, yo, man, how you doing on that tea, right? That teak was still good. [00:29:05] Speaker B: You still good? [00:29:05] Speaker A: You need some more? [00:29:06] Speaker B: You know what? I might if I. I know what. [00:29:08] Speaker A: To get you on your birthday now. That's crazy. [00:29:10] Speaker B: I know. So you be she. Because you be sharing food with me. I feel like the next time you, like, go to the Bath and Body Works store, you're gonna be like, I'm. [00:29:18] Speaker A: Gonna come back with a little bomb. [00:29:19] Speaker B: But just in case, yep, I'm gonna. [00:29:21] Speaker A: Come back with a little bomber. Yo, man, I was there yesterday. Here you go. I don't know how low you are on it, but I don't know, I might go buy some bo5 too, and put it right next to it, tape it up. [00:29:33] Speaker B: Don't do that. [00:29:33] Speaker A: I'll leave it on your desk. [00:29:34] Speaker B: Don't do that. You might. I might actually cuss you out. I don't cuss. I don't cuss that much. If I saw that, I'd be like, there's only one person that knows about this. [00:29:44] Speaker A: Well, pretty soon, it's gonna be more to know about this. [00:29:46] Speaker B: Don't be mailing us no VO please. [00:29:48] Speaker A: I need all the VO5 for Twitter. [00:29:50] Speaker B: Oh, man, all of it. Hit the. Like, hit the subscribe on Twitter. That's THC. Until next time. V05.
