Menstruation And More 00:14:52
Hello and welcome to Misunderstood, a show for all you culturally and politically misunderstood ladies or gents.
We are your hosts.
I'm Kat and I'm Nat.
And today we'll be covering an array of topics ranging from Rory Gilmore being a bad person all the way to Leah Thomas, everyone's favorite trans swimmer, and much more in between.
So be sure to watch the full episode.
First, we're going to start things off with our patented culture shock moment of the week.
Take it away, Kat.
Okay, so apparently people need to be coddled into spending time with other humans in public again.
As vaccine mandates start to lift, people are having a hard time knowing how to interact with another human being.
I would just like to say I'm embarrassed that we are the same species.
I hung out with people since day one of the pandemic.
Like literally, did not socially distance or isolate once.
So how many times did you die?
Well, I don't know.
I'm still here now, so I don't know, but we got to, like, this is insane.
Yeah, it's insane.
It's insane, y'all.
So was this a blog TO article?
Oh, of course it was.
Of course it's a blog TO.
Re-socialization hour in Toronto to teach you how to interact with humans.
You know, this is just this bar's way of getting them to buy flights and hang out with each other.
It's pretty smart marketing to actually, I suppose.
But come on, like, even if you did actually isolate the whole time, you work, you have family, friends, a dog, you could have talked to them.
No, that would be unsafe.
Critically unsafe.
Dangerous, really, is what I would say.
I did hear you could get COVID through your phone.
I what?
Through your phone.
You could get COVID.
I'm kidding.
Just start things off with some misinformation, folks.
Well, you can get other mental illnesses through your phone.
That's true.
Yeah.
That's true.
And we'll talk about those.
The culture shock is that y'all don't know how to interact with each other anymore.
So go buy a beer flight, go hang out with some humans.
I feel like people who watch this show probably know how to interact with humans.
Yeah.
And you know, if you don't, just wing it.
That's what we're doing.
Yeah.
We wing it.
We wing it.
All right.
Chicken wing it.
I think that was shocking enough.
Should we talk about some fertility and health issues that are?
We love talking about fertility.
I mean, who doesn't love being fertile?
But some people are kind of unable to potentially reproduce due to a rise in pasteurized dairy and veganism.
So you guys know we love Eevee.
Eevee's great.
All about women.
But this article is a little sad.
Yeah.
So one thing that stuck out to me was veganism has risen 600% over the past seven years.
And apparently 51% of adults in the U.S. are now struggling with a chronic illness, and that's like higher than ever.
We've never seen that in our society before.
I'm wondering if half of those people are just pretending to have chronic illnesses so they can get like mask like mask exemptions.
Maybe.
I'm just like, oh yeah, I have a chronic illness too that I forgot about.
Yeah, you know, maybe that's true.
Maybe some of it is a bit of like munch house.
That's just a little joke.
Probably not.
Let's take it.
Let's take it verbatim.
But I mean, it makes sense, though.
We are designed to eat animals.
We've been eating animal byproducts for like a bajillion years.
Like it's, it makes sense that, you know, a diet that doesn't offer you all the nutrients you're supposed to be getting would impact something like fertility.
I mean, think of your period.
Like anything can whack that up.
Oh, yeah.
Anything.
Sleep, alcohol, all of the things.
Stress.
This is upsetting.
So it says that the modern American diet consists mainly of corn, wheat, and soy.
Hmm.
Which that's American diet.
So here in Canada, we know that our diets mainly consist of cheese curds, gravy, and french fries.
I've had that for breakfast.
So we should be fine.
I think we'll be okay.
Yeah, definitely.
But I mean, soy.
I mean, I have such a soy.
Men, soy.
It's very anti-soy.
It doesn't work.
No.
It gives you man boobs.
That's a fact.
That's a fact.
You can look it up.
And that affects your menstruation.
Soy, whenever I eat like too much hummus or something, I don't know about you, but they're stealing hummus.
Chickpeas?
Don't chickpeas.
Wait, maybe not.
Oh, I don't know.
Something about chickpeas, too.
I think that's just you, girl.
I mean, yeah.
I mean, maybe.
My God, I'm going to have to look that up now because now I'm concerned about I don't eat that much.
Something about it, though.
Well, a lot of vegetarians and vegans do though.
Well, that's what this whole thing is about, right?
Like, basically.
I was looking, so it says male fertility is directly affected by a vegan diet because it can cause a zinc deficiency and on top of like all like a ton of other deficiencies.
But zinc is apparently important for male fertility.
Right.
It's also important to stop getting infections and getting chronic illnesses and COVID as well.
So there's a reason.
So if you're a male vegetarian, you might try eating meat.
You should maybe a zinc supplement would be a positive alternative to eating meat.
Sort of though, because don't you kind of think that like when we have these resources, these food resources available to us, we should try to, you know, eat those things rather than buy a pill.
Yes, I agree.
I take a lot of supplements, but I only take them because my diet doesn't have all the things I need in it.
But if ideally I would be eating like zinc-rich foods and vitamin A-rich foods, which, oh my gosh, I haven't told you this yet.
Oh, I'm excited.
Okay, so during my research here, I found out, and this is maybe people who are watching are going to be like, duh.
I had no idea that retinol is vitamin A. Apparently, retinol is a synthetic topical form of vitamin A, which you have, you can get a vitamin A deficiency from a vegetarian diet as well.
So eat chicken meat and be beautiful forever.
I'm going to go buy a steak after this.
Yeah, seriously, I had no idea that retinol and vitamin A were the same thing.
But as we all know, retinol is like the number one, it's like pretty much the only topical thing that you can put on your face that will actually prevent or get rid of wrinkles.
So just like eat a lot of chicken and y'all will be beautiful forever.
That's what I say.
I think that's a fact.
Fact.
Let's move on from that.
Maybe we should talk about why so many feminists have been silent about the very real dangers of birth control.
I feel like it makes sense.
You're pumping hormones into your body that shouldn't be there.
And I think for me, the biggest issue with kind of the way doctors just are, you go to see your doctor because you're having like a hormonal issue, something about menstruation or whatever.
The first thing they do is put you on birth control.
You're like, you got acne.
Well, birth control will fix that.
Well, you know what else can fix that?
Eating well, water, exercise, sleep, like so many other things.
But we always have to push drugs.
Yes.
So I was on birth control when I was like 20 and it made me feel so sick.
I lost a ton of weight.
I was like really, really sick.
I was moody.
My period stopped coming regularly.
I was also like underweight at the time, so I don't know what was what.
It was just a bad scene for me.
So I went off it and I've felt amazing ever since, pretty much.
Yeah.
But I wasn't like total, I wasn't totally happy with all of what the EV article wrote because it was a lot of like political.
Like it wasn't like super, super science-based.
I agree.
So I did a little more research.
Which is smart.
Yeah.
You got it.
I mean, I love the article.
It's a great jumping off point.
But it seems, so I found this other article from this.
I'll post it later.
It's verywellfamily.com.
It was saying that birth control doesn't affect your long-term fertility, but there was all these little caveats.
So it was like one of the caveats is like there's a, and they talk about this in the EV article too, but there's always like a period of time where you go off birth control and then you're not fertile for like, it can be like a couple months to years, depending on what kind of birth control you're on.
And so that's one thing.
So it's like it doesn't necessarily affect your fertility forever, but during that time, you might be trying to get pregnant and being like freaking out, like, I can't.
The other thing, which is interesting, that it was just like a little side note in this article from thisverywellfamily.com.
It said that if you have underlying fertility problems, your birth control may be masking them because you know how you have like a simulated period sort of.
So if you're taking birth control for years, which so many girls are, like they can go on as young as like 13, 14, all the way until their 30s, 15 years.
Yeah.
And then you finally come off it and you're like, oh, I have, I've been having an irregular period, but I didn't know it because of the pill.
It might be too late to do anything about it.
So like we've mentioned this before, like your period is a really, really good indicator of your fertility health and like how your body is doing.
Weight gain, hormones, like these are all signals.
So if you're masking that, you might not know what's really wrong.
And that's kind of terrifying.
That is terrifying.
And I think like the issue is like there's such a weird stigma about talking about the side effects of anything that has to do with fertility for some reason.
Like we talk about the COVID vaccine, that has been linked to some menstruation issues, maybe fertility.
The science isn't sold yet.
But it's like, we're not supposed to talk about the fact that birth control might be harming us because it's part of the sexual revolution and it's empowering for women.
But really, I'd argue, birth control has just really empowered men because now they get to behave however they want, have sex with whomever, and they don't have to worry about impregnating someone.
Yeah, exactly.
Like it's not that empowering if you do think about it.
Yeah, it's just like modern, it's just like feminism where at the beginning of it, it was like completely necessary.
It's like, okay, I mean, we have a little sketch about this.
Maybe they'll post it in here after.
But basically, like women were objects and they were property belonging to men.
They weren't allowed to vote.
They weren't allowed to work.
They, you know, once you were divorced, you lost your property rights.
You had nothing, basically.
So yay, feminism, we got rid of all of that nonsense and now we're no longer objects in the eyes of the law.
And so at the time, you'd think, well, birth control is great because like all these women are just like every time you have sex, you could get pregnant and then now you're you're burdened with like seven children.
Like I understand by the need for it.
But you can also, you can also check your body temperature to know whether or not you're about to ovulate, you know, those kinds of things.
So there are natural ways.
Like God gave us the tools.
Yeah.
And obviously they didn't know all that back then.
But now we have like fertility clocks and there's like all sorts of exactly.
We have so many tools at our disposal.
Like birth control, hormonal birth control pills is not the only answer.
No, it's not.
And I think, I don't know, COVID's made me so cynical of big pharma in general.
So it's just like when that's the first step in recovery for something, I'm just skeptical.
I'm like, I don't know.
You're just making money off me.
You know?
Yeah.
And we know that it causes like severe depression and mood disorders.
Yeah.
And it can make your hair fall out.
Yeah.
Obviously, there's so many women that are on birth control and they're totally fine and that's cool.
And I hope when they come off of it that they don't have any issues, that's cool.
Like it's probably like, you know, 80, 20.
I think so too.
Throwing a number out there.
I think it's just important to talk about it.
Yeah, not be aware.
Yeah, exactly.
And just be aware that there could be side effects, like as with anything.
Yes.
As with anything.
And not to shame a woman for asking questions about her health.
No.
Maybe.
Maybe we should not do that.
Yeah, maybe let's not.
Maybe let's not.
Speaking of someone who should feel shame.
No, I'm just kidding.
He shouldn't.
I'm totally kidding.
Ryan Reynolds shares how his anxiety makes him feel like a different person.
I actually do kind of commend him.
We were kind of making fun of him a little before, but I read the article and I was like, aw.
It's kind of nice to know that he not only is speaking out about it, but he does the job anyway.
Because so many people are like, oh, I'm anxious.
I have anxiety.
And it completely stifles their life.
And they just stay at home and let their anxiety win, right?
And I think it's exciting because I am naturally an anxious person and I deal with it in my own way.
And I feel like it's just nice to know that this big Hollywood guy is like, hey, I'm not all confident.
Yeah.
And this is an act.
She basically said, like, at first, when I was reading the article, he was like, sometimes when I'm about to go on stage, I get like really nervous.
And I'm like, oh, that's just called stage fright.
Like, who doesn't have it?
But then he was like, he feels like he's like, I'm going to die.
That curtain's going to open and I'm going to die.
And I was like, okay, I've never felt that.
Like, I've definitely experienced stage fright.
Even before we come do this, sometimes I'm like, a little nervous energy.
But I think that's positive.
Like, it means that you're doing something that excites you and challenging.
Exactly.
I use it.
She's using it, bro.
But with Ryan Reynolds, it's like, okay, this guy actually has some pretty severe anxiety.
And like you said, he does the job.
And he says, as soon as the curtain drops and he comes out, it's like there's this other little person inside him that takes over and like carries him through.
And then he says he like leaves and he's like, oh, wow.
Like, I wish I could be that guy.
Yeah.
And it's like, well, you are that guy, right?
And like, it's pretty cool.
But, and I've talked about this when we were discussing the episode before, but this reminds me.
And I don't like, okay.
Brittany Martinez is the founder of Yee Magazine.
And I follow her on Twitter and I like, I like her magazine and I think it's like very, very valuable for women.
It's a good tool.
It's a great tool.
However, she tweeted this thing that caught my eye.
It was like a while ago.
I'll post the Twitter, the tweet afterwards.
But the tweet said the following: quote, Am I the only girl who doesn't have anxiety?
Quote.
Yes.
And you're lying, Brittany.
Yeah.
Like, Brittany, you lying.
Way to throw every woman you've ever met under.
Like you own a women's magazine.
So I'm assuming that a lot of- It's supposed to empower women.
Yes, exactly.
I'm assuming a lot of your employees and your friends are women.
And you're like, am I the only one?
Like, you're putting yourself on this little cool girl island.
And I really don't think that's helpful for anybody.
It's like, what if she's my boss?
And I go up to her.
I'm like, hey, I'm just feeling like a lot of anxiety today.
Like, I'm working through it, but just so you know, if I'm a little off today, that might be why.
She's just like, that's not real.
Yeah.
Like, am I the only one who never has it?
It's like, sorry, you've never been in an elevator that's stuck.
Yeah.
You've never been on a highway?
Yeah.
You've never been merged on the highway and you're like, oh, like you've never had a natural response to stress.
It's a normal human emotion.
And I think that I think maybe what she's trying to say is like, so many people diagnose themselves with anxiety.
And I see her point.
You don't have anxiety.
You are anxious.
That's a feeling that we all feel.
Like you don't have to have a severe mental illness to feel something.
So I get that point of view.
But yeah, it's just, it's a little tone deaf.
It's a little like, oh, I'm 19.
I'm the only girl who hates drama.
Yeah.
It's like, you causing the drama.
I would love to talk to her one day and just be like, what do you do?
Like, what are you, what are you thinking when you put something out like that?
Like, I, and I see, like, to your point, she's trying to take the opposite stance of like everyone who's self-diagnosing themselves on TikTok is like, I have this disorder.
I have that.
It's like, my God, roll your eyes.
I'm like, can we just be healthy, happy humans and like deal with what's going on inside of us and not just not compartmentalize it and not just be like on an island like suffering alone, of course.
But like to walk around with your like label, like who doesn't have anxiety?
That's why I just don't think like, I see what she's doing, but it's just not a helpful tactic.
No, I agree.
Tough Love Truth 00:04:40
I think it's, it's not going to win anyone over.
No.
And who are you trying to win over with that attitude, girl?
Yeah, that was like me when I was 19.
I was like, I'm so cool.
I like hate drama.
It's like, no, I love it.
Not anymore, though, guys.
No, yeah.
Not anymore.
So I guess Brittany was kind of tough, offering a little tough love there, maybe.
But speaking of tough love and Gen Z, they want cuddly TikTok agony ants.
So young people are turning to influencers now for validation and reassurance that makes them less resilient in the face of real world conflict.
Experts warn.
So this kind of goes back to our culture shock moment.
Like everyone just needs to be coddled and have their hand held.
And it's really, really, I think, going to be detrimental when these people grow up and their boss is like, hey, no, the answer is no, and they won't know how to cope with that or respond to that.
Well, you know how they will respond is, did you see that video that was going around last week of those kids in that university that were just like melting down in the class?
Yeah.
Like Ian Miles Strong posted a video of it and I'll post it here.
That's what happens when you are self-diagnosing yourself and you absolutely cannot tolerate the world at all.
It's like this article says, given social media algorithms, the more you use social media, the more your feed will cater to you and the more you'll feel understood and supported.
Right.
So as soon as you're echo chamber.
Exactly.
And they're just like, everything you do is so amazing.
You are like, you're everything just as you are.
Nothing you do could be criticized.
And it's nice to, you know, have a support system and find community and stuff.
But, you know, tough love is love.
And speaking the truth in love is what we're called to do as Christians.
And that means telling the actual truth.
And I think that the problem is we're just humoring people too much.
We're validating way too much.
I think it's like you can go too far one way and too far the other.
And I think we're just too many extremes.
Ah!
Yeah, it's too extreme.
Too many extremes.
So that's what happens.
You get these screaming kids who are like, I think the context of that video is like this dad didn't want his child transitioned behind his back or something.
So he went to speak at a university, which was like, ooh, what are you doing?
And the kids were just screaming, like giving the finger, doing crude gestures.
And it's like, that's what you get.
That's what, that's what we've, this is our, this is our world now.
These are the people that are going to be politicians and teachers and doctors and lawyers.
They're going to be crying and screaming because the world isn't like their iPhone algorithms.
It's real sad.
It is sad because I think that's kind of why we are where we are in society.
Like we don't have critical thinking skills because of these echo chambers, because of these algorithms.
And I don't know if that was intentional.
I'm going to put on like Tim Flint hat here, but like it's working because to be a critical thinker will make you a successful person in society.
And I think it's important to be exposed to different ideas and to decide where what you believe, you know, after being exposed to those ideas.
Yeah.
I don't know.
Maybe I'm crazy.
No, we're just teaching kids to just scream and use obscene gestures instead of using your words and like not critical thinking.
It's like pretty sad.
I don't know what the answer is.
What's the answer, Nat?
Like, I don't know.
How do we fix this?
Think, stop humoring your children.
Like, say no to them.
You know, teach them to think critically.
Pray for wisdom.
You know, I don't know.
Those are the only things I can think of.
I hope it's not, we're not too far gone in society.
But like, as you said, these people are the future of this nation, the future of the free world.
Like, it's scary.
It's absolutely terrifying.
So that's fun.
Yeah.
I don't know how to really.
Good luck, kids.
Good luck.
I hope that more of that generation will like watch shows like ours and like read Eevee and go to church and do all sorts of things that are like counterculture.
And maybe that's the way out of this.
Watch our show.
That's the way out.
And share the show with your grandkids, folks.
And now a word from our sponsor.

Lizzo's Body Praise Controversy 00:02:27
Visit b.tc slash conference to learn more.
Pay in Bitcoin to save and use promo code Rebel News for 10% off.
And that was a word from our sponsor.
Speaking of someone who doesn't seem to want to know the truth, we used this word last week.
So many people in our society are truth phobes.
They're scared of the truth.
And I think Lizzo is one of those people, right?
Lizzo?
So, um.
Do you want to take it away?
Yeah, this article is, Lizzo praises her, quote, really hot body quote and insists that she deserves the spotlight for being a, quote, body icon.
I have lots to say.
The most interesting part of this article was no doubt the fact that I learned that she plays the flute.
Did you know that?
I did not know that, but I'm not surprised.
She's pretty cool.
She wears many hats.
Yeah, like that's, she's like a good flute player.
I had no idea.
Like, that's actually a skill that, you know, you could deserve praise for.
Yeah, that's cool, Lizzo.
Your other talents are cool, but I don't think you should be known for being obese and then trying to encourage people that that's normal.
Yeah, it's just like saying Zendaya deserves praise for being incredibly skinny.
Like, would we ever say that?
Like, we don't get any praise.
Like, look at me.
I'm starving.
I'm basically, like, invisible when I turn to the side.
Like, do we deserve praise?
No, because it's unhealthy.
It would be unhealthy to praise us for being like anorexic or something.
Like, gorgeous.
But why is it only okay to praise fat people?
Yeah, it's not.
Like, if both are unhealthy.
Too skinny being fat.
Like, why are you praising someone for their skin sack?
Yeah.
Like, I get it.
We talk about like O'Reilly Reynolds and his abs.
It's like, okay, but that's not why we'd like him.
We like him because he's funny and he's like a good actor and he overcomes his anxiety and he's like, has the little baby legs in Deadpool?
Like, that's hilarious.
Yeah.
And that's what we love.
Yeah, definitely.
We don't love him just for the abs.
Like, there's other people with abs that were just like, okay, you don't deserve my praise because like you're dumb.
You're a dumb person or whatever.
But you're white supremacist.
Like you don't deserve any love.
Yeah.
We will pray for you though.
I don't know.
It's just such a weird egotistical, naive thing to say that you deserve the spotlight for your body.
Yeah.
Whether you're fat or skinny, it's so stupid.
Yeah.
Like keep playing the flute though.
Yeah, play the flute.
That's pretty cool.
Also, Lizzo, you are overweight.
I'm being your friend.
Let's be friends.
Yeah, like let's be your friend.
Girl, like, you're not in a body icon.
No, you are a very talented woman, though.
Yeah.
Beautiful girl.
Lorelei's Bad Mom Guilt Trip 00:05:59
Absolutely.
You should eat a salad.
Yeah.
Like, what if you were just still you in every way, but you just weren't encouraging everyone to be obese and you weren't constantly talking about your weight gain.
Yeah, I think that'd be great.
Like imagine if I was like, oh my God, I lost another five pounds.
That'd be so annoying.
You'd be like, ooh, that's all you talk about?
Yeah.
This is why you want to talk about your meat skin.
You have other things to talk about.
You have lots to offer.
You're very talented.
Like, let's vote.
If you want the spotlight, you can get it for that.
You don't need to talk about your stupid body.
It's annoying.
It is annoying.
Anyway, speaking of annoying.
Oh.
Okay.
So annoying this next hot.
Oh, my God.
We have like, I have like nine pages of notes.
I actually wrote a novel this weekend just like, okay, so Rory and Lorelei.
So this article is again from Evie.
Unpopular opinion.
Rory is the villain of Gilmore Girls and Lorelei's bad parenting is to blame.
Periach.
Let's do a slow clap.
I was like reminded of how horrible they both are.
Again, caveat.
I love Gilmore Girls.
Me too.
It's the best show ever.
The most like autumnal show.
Like you just, you want to PS out when you want to.
Oh my God.
Or like Christmas.
Yeah.
No, like, and I love the characters.
Like, Lorelei reminds me of myself sometimes.
And I'm like, that's not a good thing.
Like, she's a horrible person.
She's trash.
I'm like, less bad, Lorelei.
You are not.
We both have monkey ears, though.
Like, we both have that same look.
But, okay, my God.
The very first episode of Gilmore Girls.
Lorelei tells Rory that she's just been admitted to Chilton Academy and Rory's like, I'm so excited to go to a private school.
I work so hard.
She's such a nerd.
She's like super smart.
And then later in the episode, Lorelei's like, oh, it costs money?
And then she has to go back to her parents who she's bragging about.
Like, oh, I don't need them.
I left at the home at 16, blah, blah, blah.
I worked my ass off to raise you, Rory.
Then she goes back to her parents to ask for the money to send her daughter to Chilton.
It's like, did you not know that the private school costs money?
Like, didn't you know people apply anything?
Yeah, like you did.
Before you applied.
When you applied, it probably said like student fees, academic fees, book fees, uniform fees.
Yeah.
Like they, it's all out there.
It's probably on the website.
Like, it's probably right by the applications.
Yeah.
It's like, do you have money?
You can't come here if you don't have money.
Okay.
And then also, can we please talk about how Rory has literally had everything handed to her her whole life?
Like she never had to work hard and they tried to paint Paris, her best friend from, is it Chilton?
Yeah.
Her best friend from Chilton is like this annoying like prude.
And it's like, well, she actually worked her butt off.
Like she really.
She was rich too.
Yeah, I know, but she actually like put a lot of effort into every single thing she did.
Like she invested in everything.
She was passionate about everything.
Rory's just like, yeah.
And then as soon as she gets any bad criticism from her first like article, whatever, she goes and steals a ship, a boat from her Logan's dad criticized when she was interning at his.
And she's like, that's it.
I'm over it.
And then like, so Dean builds her car, her first boyfriend, Dean builds her a car, tells her he loves her, and she's like, thanks.
And then she cheats on him with Jesse.
Yeah.
And then gets mad at Jesse for like some reason, ends up getting back with Dean.
Then Dean gets married.
And then Rory cheats with Dean on the white.
She's gives her virginity to him.
Yes.
Who's married?
And then she breaks up that marriage and then just dumps Dean for Logan.
Yeah.
I am team Logan though.
Obviously.
He's so rich.
And he's so bot.
And he goes from like badass like playboy to perfect boyfriend.
Like without a, he never does anything wrong.
Yes.
He's just perfect, attentive, loving, like loyal.
There's no way that guy would be like that.
So we should kind of backpedal here a little bit.
So we want to talk about how Lorelei is a bad mom.
She's a bad mom.
And I think part of it is because she doesn't set a good example in relationships, but I also think like part of it is because she just tried way too hard to be Rory's friend.
Yeah.
So it's like what the article kind of rights.
But it's like when you don't discipline your kid and then you finally are like, Rory, no, they're going to be like, what do you mean, mom?
I'm perfect.
You've been telling my best friend.
Yeah.
Like you've been blowing smoke up my ass my whole life.
And she's just like, Lorelei all of a sudden puts her foot down.
Yeah.
And it's like, Rory's like, nah.
And Lorelei, as the article kind of talks about, she's the one to blame for her bad behavior.
Like she's, she's basically encouraged this and over shared.
And I don't know.
I just think she's a really crap person.
She is a crap person.
She's hilarious.
Yeah, she's funny.
She's a person.
So she sends Rory to Chilton and then immediately starts dating Rory's teacher.
Doesn't tell Rory.
Let's Rory find out from school gossip.
Then gets engaged to the teacher and then breaks off the engagement days before the wedding.
Yeah.
Days before the wedding, you're dating your child's teacher.
The guy accepts everything and just expects everyone to just move on and get over it.
Like, stop harassing me.
She's like, me, All the time.
It's like, dude.
And then, and then when people are like, oh, how's your wedding?
And she's like, yeah.
Like, we just had a whole town throw you an engagement party here.
Yeah.
She sucks.
They both suck.
And then she's mad at Luke for not coming to the engagement party, even though he's like, obviously in love with her.
Let's talk about how she's just like been playing.
She played him for like a decade.
She was like, oh, oh, Luke, I'm coming to you with all my problems.
She costs me.
Yeah, Luke, Luke, with all these boy problems.
And he's like, I love you deep down.
And she's like, nah.
You know what's also super toxic about Gilmore girls?
The amount of junk food that they pretend to eat.
Like all the people.
And they're like anorexia.
They're so skinny.
They are so freaking skinny and they're just like, oh, like waffle.
They never show them eating it too.
No, they're just like, oh, we bought all like bagels and waffles and poutine and this and that.
And then they just like, they sit there and like chew on a fry for like 45 minutes.
And I'm just like, this is such a little result.
It's just like that classic, like, oh, relatable girl on Instagram who's like, I eat donuts and ice cream.
And like, I just like, I don't know, I'm just naturally blessed.
It's like, no, girl, you're eating like honeydew, melon, and nothing else.
No, just thousands.
Be honest about your diet and encourage people to be healthy, but like this, whatever.
It's like the 90s, like or early 2000s.
Criticism From Parents 00:16:20
Yeah.
It was a different time.
It's just so toxic.
Like, girls, you're starving yourselves.
Let's get real.
Yeah, we know, we know you ain't eating the donut, Rory.
Okay.
Yeah.
No, we know.
No.
I could.
Love the show, though.
Yeah, love the show.
I think it just doesn't set a good example for women, though.
Like, I don't really think young girls should watch it.
I will because I'm not young.
Well, we're adults.
We have critical thinking skills.
Our brains are fully developed.
So we can discern.
I think the most care, the most relatable character character is Emily.
I thought.
Oh, the mom.
You know, she just hates everything, but it's consistent.
She's very consistent.
Yeah, Suki's relatable.
She's cute.
I like Suki, but Suki's too much of a pushover.
Yeah.
That's the thing, like, everyone just bore Rory and Lorelei's will.
It's like, do it for me.
Remember when her husband lies, Suki's husband lies about getting a hurtomyctomy and then impregnates her?
Yeah.
That's like borderline rape, isn't it?
It's a little weird.
It's kind of crazy.
And she's just like, oh, you.
It's like, nope, no, no.
Yeah.
That's, that's a, that's a great.
Am I making that up?
Did that happen?
I don't know if that happened, but I might be lying.
You know what?
I thought chickpea was so ill.
So you know what?
We're misinformation.
We should have a lot of fun.
You are fake news.
We should.
You are fake news.
I'm sure someone does.
So we're very fired up right now.
So we're about to get even more fired up with this next topic.
You know, we love talking about transgenderism.
Okay, no, I didn't.
We're good.
She didn't screw anything.
We didn't screw anything up.
We're just spreading misinformation.
But anyway, we're going to talk about some trans kids, some trans athletes.
Oh, this video.
We're going to start with the video.
Okay.
Should we just, can we play the video?
Thank you.
Love that.
Let's just let this lady tell her story.
I have a really proud moment that I want to share.
So I'm a long-distance parent and I get to typically talk to my kiddo through FaceTime.
And we've been working on my pronouns for probably about a year now.
Everyone that she's with on a regular basis doesn't use my pronouns correctly.
And so that's a really, really hard sort of like line to walk for her because she's not with me all the time.
Thank God.
But we do talk about it.
We talk about pronouns.
We talk about, you know, what her pronouns are, what daddy's pronouns are, what mommy's pronouns are, what other people's pronouns are.
And we just like really work through it.
I always just gently remind her and say, hey, baby.
Oh, my God.
What are mommy's pronouns?
And she's so funny because she's always like, yeah, she's a.
She knows.
This really sweet thing happened where she was going to tell her dad something and used my pronouns correctly without me needing to remind her.
Okay, let's cut it.
I want to get it all by me.
I get it.
There's a lot to unpack there.
Do not teach your kids this crap.
Yeah.
Like, first of all, the mother looks like a child.
She's dressed like a freaking child.
She looks like a complete.
Yeah, she looks like she just came back from a summer camp thing and her mom's like, oh, you got a new hairstyle, Kayla?
Like, you'll regret that.
That'll grow out.
Yeah.
She's also like, I'm a long-distance parent, which, you know, life happens.
I don't know what circumstances.
It's probably for the best.
Yeah.
My hair is being janky.
I'm going to fix it.
You're beautiful.
Thank you.
For me though, okay, let's just let kids be kids.
Let's not let them worry about misgendering adults.
Like it's not a child's job to cater to you as an adult.
Like you are their parent.
You're supposed to just bring, like, support them, love them, not be like, you didn't call me they, them, Susie.
Yeah.
What?
The fact that she's like, I constantly like ask her, what's mommy's pronouns?
And it's like, again, I'm not there.
No, I'm only here watching the video.
And from my perspective, watching this video, it's like, okay, are you also asking about her?
Like, you're asking about your child's mental well-being.
How's school going?
Like, maybe those are other conversations that she has and we don't see them.
Fine.
It's just like, you're showing us a picture of your parenting skills right now.
A glimpse into your world.
And it looks very like you care about yourself only.
Yeah.
And your pronouns.
And that's the most important thing to your like little kid.
And you're, and your kid is showing you that they're annoyed by this.
When she says, oh, it's so cute.
She goes, they, them.
Is that cute?
Or is your child telling you something?
I think your child is telling you something.
So no.
Stop it.
Just a big no from me.
Just grow up.
Just, yeah.
We need to move on from this.
You need to grow your hair out or shave it all together.
You look stupid.
Speaking of stupid, 10-year-old trans girl, MMA Trailblazer, and non-binary hotness highlight fashion week.
10 years old.
It's pretty young.
It's quite young.
When I was 10 years old, I tried to like jump off stairs with a pillowcase thinking I would be able to just, you know, float down the stairs.
Didn't work out.
Okay.
Don't think then I could have chosen my gender either when my brain had not yet developed.
So there's like two big parts of this.
Yes, there are.
A, is a 10-year-old able to pick their gender?
I would say no.
No.
Based on you jumping and trying to kill yourself at 10.
I was also stupid at 10 pretty much throughout my entire life even up until this moment.
The other big part of this is like, why are we sexualizing a 10-year-old?
Yeah, can we pull up a photo of this child?
So the photo in the middle there, that looks.
It's a 10-year-old boy.
And I'm fine.
Like, let's color her.
Sure.
That's a 10-year-old girl.
But you're over, like, this is sexualized.
This is over sexualized.
Look at the makeup that they're wearing.
Now, while I was looking at this, the first thing I thought was that just looks like a little kid in like dance troop gear.
Like, my sister was a dancer.
So she would, I would go to these things with her.
And they're like 10-year-old girls with like fake eyelashes and like belly tops doing dancing.
So I, if we have a problem with this, we should also have a problem with that.
I pretend.
And I do.
I definitely do.
I don't think we should be making young kids look like adults.
I think it's creepy.
I think it's really, like, think of like pageant girls, like all those four-year-olds, like toddlers into yours.
It's creepy.
So yeah, like a lot of people do find that creepy, but then at the same time, they're like cheering on this trans because they're trans.
Yeah, so now it's okay to sexualize them.
Like, can we just not sexualize kids?
Yeah, especially because if you scroll through the article, there's like other photos of this trans kid with a bunch of non-binary and other trans adults.
And they're way older than this person.
Where are the other kids in the show?
And why is it all old people innocent child?
Yeah, exactly.
The 10-year-old is going through something.
They might grow out of it.
They might not find.
They are who they are.
But like, should they be hanging out with a bunch of also confused adults?
No.
And also messed up.
And I don't know.
It's a controversial topic, but I don't know if it's in your child's best interest to let them transition when they are prepubescent and they don't know anything about life, anything about themselves even.
Like I just, I don't think we should encourage this.
Like we should be encouraging seeking mental guidance from it's illegal now.
Well, yeah, in Canada.
Yeah, in Canada.
Literally illegal to seek counsel for your gender dysphoria.
Well, and for a psychiatrist or psychologist or pastor or any sort of person in charge to counsel you, maybe steer you in a different direction.
But even on just the surface, it's like any sort of counseling is considered conversion therapy, which, you know, people think conversion therapy, they think chaining you up with poison.
Which was a render, which is disgusting.
It's illegal.
It's been illegal for a long time.
It's disgusting.
And I don't think a single person would ever think that.
My pastor said that a couple weeks ago.
He was like, I've never in my whole professional career seen any sort of like physical violent.
Yeah.
Anything like physical conversion therapy, especially against someone who wasn't wanting.
Even like even on a psychological level, like just counseling, like if you don't want it and you're forcing someone, that's also, they don't do that.
Right.
Like if they're like, hey, I like being gay.
It's like, okay, then this isn't for you.
Right.
So definitely.
We're already not chaining people to chairs and forcing them to be straight.
Like we're not doing that.
Yeah.
So why can't you talk to your pastor?
Well, and I do think like part of it is like parents think they're doing what's best for their kid, but you also have to parent them.
Like we've talked about this throughout the whole episode.
Affirming people is not always loving them.
And most kids who suffer from gender dysphoria, which by the way is extremely rare to be like it's a rare diagnosis.
Most kids who suffer from it do outgrow it.
Yes.
Like 80%.
So we need to trust the science.
Like your kid was likely going to outgrow this.
It's like affirming a child's desire to eat like Pop-Tarts every day.
Like, mom, like, I identify.
Yeah.
I identify as someone who wants to eat Pop-Tarts every day.
And you're like, I affirm that.
Yeah.
Eat them.
I want you to have a healthy relationship with your body and I want you to eat Pop-Tarts every day.
It's like, that's going to cause diabetes.
Well, and if child services found out about that, they would probably deem you an unfit parent.
Hopefully.
Yeah, hopefully.
But like, that's not.
But then with gender dysphoria, you're like, I affirm it.
Yeah.
No problem.
You're 10.
You're 10.
You're so silly.
And by the way, undergoing hormone treatment will render you sterile.
And even if you go off of those treatments, it's very unlikely or rare that you can bounce back from that 100%, if at all, right?
Like it's just, I don't know, guys, this is pretty serious stuff.
And I think.
It's a conversation that you should have.
It's just like birth control.
It's like, let's not shame people from wanting to discuss your options.
Yeah.
If you want to transition and you're of age, like, my goodness, when you're a consenting adult, go for it.
Yeah.
When your brain is pushed on children.
I think we nailed that.
I think so too.
Okay, now we got to talk about our girl.
Our girl?
Leah.
Yes, you did it.
Leah.
So, transwomer Leah Thomas addresses debate about her competing in a women's team.
I am Leah.
The transwomer dividing America tells her story.
Okay.
So we talk about her a lot.
Leah just wants other trans athletes to know they're not alone, which is nice.
That's lovely.
That's nice.
But it would be a lot nicer, Leah, if you cared about the fact that you are basically erasing women in sports as a biological male.
I can say that.
Yeah.
Because it's true.
Yeah.
Like, born a male identifies as a female.
Those are the facts.
Those are facts.
Those are facts.
Another fact is: even if you are taking hormonal, like testosterone suppressants, you still have higher levels of testosterone than a biological woman.
Of course.
That's also.
You also have the bone density, the musculature, the skeleton formation.
All of that.
All of that.
Makes you more, let's say, successful when swimming against female counterparts.
Gifts that you were given at birth that other people weren't given that make you a faster biological advantages.
Yes, biological.
Are we allowed to say that?
I don't think so.
We're not allowed to say any of those.
No.
There's a photo of Leah.
You can just ponder that for a minute.
I have a question.
Yeah, I'd love to answer it.
Why can't Leah?
Yeah, please answer this for me.
Why can't Leah in her female bathing suit just swim with men?
So Leah did address this in her interview.
So basically, when she first came out of trans, I think it came out as trans in 2019.
I don't remember what the organization, is it the NCAA or whatever?
Whatever.
There's like an organization and they were like, you can compete as a woman in male sports as you take your treatment, but you have to take your treatment for like a year.
So she did that.
She swam in a chick's bathing suit and then was able to compete against other women because she is a woman, she declares.
She's a woman.
She deserves to compete against other women despite those biological differences we just mentioned.
It's kind of like if you were in the NHL and you thought it would be a success story to like be downgraded to the OHL.
And you're just like, oh, wow, this is easy.
Like I'm scoring like 10 goals a game.
We're scoring.
Like, as an athlete, wouldn't you want to be pitted against better, harder working competitors?
Like stronger, faster?
Like, how are men going to be a faster?
Like, because she says, all I've ever thought of myself is as a swimmer.
So swim with the men then.
Like, challenge yourself.
Like, why would you put yourself in the small pond?
Yeah.
It's weird.
Seems like we're picking it based on the bathing suit she's wearing.
Yeah, and I mean, she did say that she's not thinking about wins or breaking records.
Yet as an athlete, that's literally your only job, dude.
Like, come on, dude.
I can say dude because it's like a lot of people.
You can call me dude, yeah.
But like, it's pretty easy to do your best when you have a biological advantage over someone.
You're not going to get faster by swimming against women who are slower than you.
You should be swimming against swimmers who are really, really fast and will encourage you to break new records.
So don't lie about not enjoying those wins.
Yeah.
Okay, girl?
Okay.
Yeah, if you really want to challenge yourself and just swim, you would swim with men and you would wear your bathing suit and maybe you could have your own change room for modesty and you can feel comfortable.
Like I'm not trying to make her feel uncomfortable.
No.
I will call her a girl.
I will say wear whatever bathing suit you want, grow your hair out.
You're Leah.
That's cool.
But like you still have the musculature and like bone density of a man.
Of a man's body.
And you always will.
You always will.
You always will.
And it's not an insult.
I love men.
Men are great.
They're great.
I kind of want to talk about some of the criticism that Leah has received from some of the parents on the team.
So I just want to read some quotes if that's cool.
Yes, it is cool.
So this is what they said because these are their daughters, by the way, who've worked their whole life to get on these Ivy League teams.
So we support Leah as a trans woman and hope she leads a happy and productive life because that's what she deserves.
One parent of a penny swimmer says, What we can't do is stand by while she rewrites records and eliminates biological women from this sport.
If we don't speak up here, it's going to happen in college after college.
And then women's sports as we know it will no longer exist in this country, America.
And then, so basically, the counter to this is that that parent's argument is disingenuous to Leah because there's no such thing as half support.
You either back her fully as a woman or you don't.
She says the very simple answer is that I'm not a man.
I'm a woman.
So I belong on the women's team.
Trans people deserve the same respect every other athlete gets.
Well, you know, those women who're getting any respect at all, they're not, where's their respect?
Yeah.
Like that's so self-centered.
Yeah, it's so self-centered.
It just, that just really made me a man.
Because of the way I identify, everyone else has to identify differently now.
They are no longer, they're like, well, what is a woman?
Am I a woman?
What is a swimmer?
Like, am I an athlete?
Everyone has to rewrite all the parameters of everything they know because Leah wants to wear a female swimsuit.
And it's like, you attend an Ivy League school.
You're not an idiot, okay?
Like, you are not an idiot.
So come on, like, let's, let's, let's be a little bit more aware of our surroundings there, Leah.
Like, we do know that the teammates have also been complaining about seeing your male genitalia in the change room.
Yeah.
You know, respect other people, and maybe they'll respect you.
Oh, no.
We're getting canceled.
I think she should just swim with men and that would be fine.
And I think she can be 462nd again or whatever she does.
No, she doesn't care about the you don't want to win anyway.
She doesn't care about winning.
Yeah.
Just swim with men.
Plus, at least you're not below the 500th best.
Like, it's not bad.
462 or whatever?
That wasn't bad.
I would definitely be below 500 in men and women.
So she's definitely better than me.
I would just sit at the pool and be like, I'd be like, can I get a mimosa?
Yeah.
I'm like, hello.
Hello, the sun's not great inside this indoor swim.
Speaking Fans' Bitterness 00:02:37
Can you fan me?
Okay.
So speaking of fans.
Speaking of fans.
Fans are mad because Joseph Gordon Levitt is too hot.
Actually, no, not fans, just this one person who wrote this.
One jealous person.
Bitter person.
This bitter person wrote this article where it's from Slate.
What's the article?
You're too hot to play Uber's founder.
The real problem with all the new shows about tech villains.
This person is clearly just jealous that all of these tech villains are like now making money, capitalizing off of these movies that make them yeah.
Like, are you mad that Leonard DiCaprio played that guy in Wolf of Fall Street?
Like, do you want to watch an Uggo do it?
Yeah, like, did are you not aware that Hollywood actors are good looking?
They're all hot.
Even the ugly ones are kind of hot.
Like, they're just, there's something about them.
They're all striking.
Yeah, well, I remember when Jennifer Lawrence came onto the scene and it was Hunger Games.
And people, I remember, like, the thing was like, oh, yeah, she's like a normal looking, like, she's not like Hollywood hot.
And I'm like, she's like, she's obviously super hot.
She's like, no, no, she's like less hot than like a Margo Robbie.
It's like, okay, you guys are all 10s or more.
Yeah.
Like, that's, that's how Hollywood is.
10's the low bar.
Yeah.
If you're not a 10, you're not on the screen.
Even like Betty White was a 10 as an old lady.
Yeah, she was a 10.
She's a freaking 10.
They're talking about how like these like hot dudes kind of like are glorifying like white collar crimes.
And it's like, okay, I can watch hot men commit crimes on film and still know that crime's like bad.
Yeah, like we've kind of always done that.
Yeah.
It's kind of just the way it is.
Like it's like we all have critical thinking skills.
Like we know that crime is bad.
Hot men, nice.
Just a bonus when we're watching the bad crime.
Yeah, so when you're going to tell us a story about some boring moment in history, make it hot.
Yeah.
Otherwise, we're not going to watch it.
The only exception is Tony Soprano.
No.
But if he's your type, we don't judge.
No, absolutely not.
We judge a little.
Wow.
No, we don't judge.
We'll judge.
I just think, though, like, who cares, author of this article?
Like, who cares?
I wrote this article is an idiot.
Yeah.
Like, literally, though.
That's all I can say.
I just, there's such a jealous tone to it.
It's so bitter.
So, anyway.
Just get hot.
Yeah.
Just like get hotter.
You know, it's so easy.
All right.
Speaking of idiotic Hollywood people, Zoe Kravitz would like everyone to know that her character in Cat Woman, sorry, her character, Catwoman, in The Batman, which I'm really excited to see.
Is bisexual.
And that's relevant to the plot because.
My question is: why wasn't this role given to an actual bisexual individual?
Good question, Zoe.
Why Zoe Kravitz Is Canceled 00:05:18
You should be canceled.
Yeah, you're canceled.
Clearly, this person just wants clout with the LGBTQAB C-D-E-M-G movement.
But like, you're already in Batman.
That's the coolest thing ever.
That's one of like the greatest.
She's playing opposite Robert Patton.
Yeah.
He's like the hottest actor right now.
And Paul Dano's in it.
He's like the greatest actor ever.
That is.
He's amazing.
He's not old and he's not hot, but he's amazing.
Yeah, so like, I don't know.
Like, this isn't Harvey Milk's story, okay?
You can just be a cat woman.
Yeah, why wasn't an actual cat cast?
Yeah, in the role.
Maybe it should be Kanat woman.
Yes.
Knat woman.
Okay, there's the still.
Speaking of woke BS, Dr. Zeus's works to be edited by racially diverse team amid woke back glass.
Zeus.
I'm like, have I been saying it wrong with Holocaust?
I actually don't.
I don't know.
I think it's Zeus.
I think you're right.
I think you're wrong.
Okay, can we just talk about the fact that this dude is dead?
This guy's dead and they're old.
They're like, he's canceled.
He can't defend himself, though.
That's not right.
Like, if we're going to cancel dead people, shouldn't we be canceling Walt Disney?
Yeah, there's so many dead people.
There's so many dead people that are canceled before Dr. Frickin' Seuss.
Yeah, by the way, who probably just wanted to like write some books that had some sweet rhymes for kids to read, you know?
The only book I ever read fully through was Green Eggs and Ham.
That's what I mean, though.
Like, he's like a childhood staple.
I don't think there's any malintent here.
Like, I really don't see this.
I just think if you're an adult and you're offended by a children's book, there's something wrong with you.
Like, just read something else.
Apparently, like, Joe Biden wouldn't read it for like the annual like children's story hour because he's like, oh, because he's the woke president, guys.
He's he's fixing transphobia.
And I didn't understand what the cause for the cancel was for Dr. Seuss.
So I looked into it a little bit.
Yeah, some illustrations.
And there's some illustrations where there's like a caricature of a Chinese person.
And I think it's in the one that's like all the places you'll go or something that they're like traveling all over the place.
And there's like, there's like a Muslim or something.
Yeah.
And there's like someone that looks like a black person in Africa.
Yeah.
And it's like, okay, these are caricatures of cultures.
Like if you put some, if you put like a little like potato lady with like a scarf on her head and you're like, I went to Eastern Europe.
Like would I be offended?
No.
No, because my people are potato people.
Like what if, what if someone did that to a white character though?
They made them like a white.
Oh, he's eating mayonnaise.
Yeah, it's like it's a dumb blonde.
Yeah, it's like that's okay.
That's not.
Actually, that's not okay.
Yeah.
Like, are we not allowed to poke, not even poke fun?
Are we not allowed to like teach kids about different cultures using like a really like silly caricature?
That's what a caricature is.
It's like, oh, I know.
It's like that.
No, the answer is no.
Okay.
You're not allowed.
Okay.
But you know what?
Buy up all of his books before they get completely erased from history.
This is some 1984 Biaz man.
Oh my God.
Soon it'll be illegal to mention the word Dr. Seuss and you'll be vaporized.
Yeah.
We just got vaporized.
That's why I paused.
Oh my god.
Oh my God.
I was like, no, I was like, what happened?
No.
I got vaporized.
Oh my God.
Terrifying.
Speaking of terrifying, Gen Z gals on growing out their body hair.
It's sexy and empowering.
No, it's not.
No, it's not.
It's not.
So this was funny.
So here's a quote.
Of respondents between the ages of 18 and 35, female fur proved to be even less of an issue, with the majority confessing that.
Yeah.
Majority confessing that they either find armpit hair attractive or don't care if a woman has it.
Lies.
Well, okay.
Lies.
I will say, though, I do think most men don't care if you shave, but that's why I think like, like, I just shave my legs and stuff because I want to.
I don't do it for my husband.
No.
Like, I think.
So I don't cut my other leg with the prickles.
Yeah, I do it so it's not like uncomfortable and like it's kind of, I feel like it's more hygienic.
Yeah, it feels sexier.
Yeah, I think so too.
Like I don't do it because society told me to.
Certainly not because your husband told you to.
No, absolutely not.
And your husband is going to want to whatever with you no matter what.
If he's your fur, he's fine with it.
Like I got a little, you know, going on right here sometimes.
Some guys are into it.
Yeah, no.
They're not.
But no, and also like this article kind of claims that like people are saying that it's not normal to have body hair.
Like we all know it's normal.
Yeah.
We like it's normal.
It's normal.
It grows there.
We know.
Like as a woman, I've often been like, oh, I wish that I didn't have to go and spend $600 every six months or whatever on laser and go and it's painful and I have to shave it.
Like I wish.
But that's just the way it is.
And it's not men causing me to feel that way.
It's just the way it is.
And I get to change the normalization.
And like, fine, if you want, like, I like natural stuff too.
Like, we were talking about this last week.
We're like, the more skincare and beauty products that we can buy that are natural, the happier I am.
So maybe for them, this is just that next step.
It's like, sure.
That's even more natural.
Fine.
But you're stinky.
You look, you look dirty.
You're going to stink.
You look dirty.
And it's not cute.
Like, let's just not pretend it's cute.
It's not cute.
It's not.
It might be natural.
It might be.
It might make you feel empowered.
But it's not.
It's not cute.
It's not cute.
Okay, but also, I want to talk about how those razor brands hot cast these like hairy models in their in their campaign.
That doesn't make any sense.
Megan Markle's Virtual Poverty 00:04:39
It's like so counterproductive.
They're the least likely to use a razor.
And like, they're not going to make me want to buy your razors.
I'm like, oh, it doesn't work very well.
Yeah.
Like I would fire your marketing strategists.
Like, I don't know who thought that was a good idea.
But yeah, like two UK companies like shaving like razor.
They'll figure it out.
They'll figure it out.
They'll be putting like a hairless seal on the covers anyway now.
Like that's that's just also just like I say stinky because like where there is hair, there's often odor and sweat.
Yeah.
So like smell her head.
If that's perfect.
Yeah.
If you're gonna if you're gonna do the no shave thing, like maybe consider like a medical strength in perspirant.
A natural one though.
A natural one.
Yeah.
No such one.
Just put pure zinc on your armpit.
That'll look cute with like hair and like white cake chalky paste.
Don't eat.
So while you're watching this episode, I'm so sorry for ruining your arms.
Gen Z. You can be hairy girls.
I'm going to keep shaving.
I'm going to be gorgeous.
Yeah.
Great.
Speaking of someone who's gorgeous but annoying as hell, Megan Markle.
Megan Markle.
Okay, so this article is from TMZ.
So we don't, we can't really fully understand just how true or untrue it is.
It is like a tabloid magazine, but apparently she's being sued.
Her sister claims she lied to Oprah and others about her rags to royalty story and she claims it's BS.
I mean again, we don't know if this is true, but it's hilarious.
I think, okay, so Megan Markle is apparently quoted as saying she grew up in virtual poverty.
And I'm like, do you mean virtual as in synthesized and not actual poverty?
Yeah, delusional poverty.
Maybe because she's so rich now.
She looks back at like a middle class upbringing.
She had to show up at the gap.
Oh my God, it was horrible.
But I mean, it just speaks to the fact that being poor and having like oppression points is cool now at school.
Like it gives you clout in society with progressives mostly.
To me, it's like it's really respectful to regardless of your wealth or class or upbringing, you know, to work hard, like to be honest and have humility and to be kind.
Like those things are cool.
Those should give you clout in society, but no.
You're so grateful.
Yeah.
For what you had.
Yeah.
That's, I think the, I mean, the sister, who knows what she's trying to get at.
She's like, I, like, she's saying that the reason she's suing Megan is because she, the sister, Samantha, cannot get jobs now because of Megan besmirching her family.
I'm like, that I feel like a stretch girl.
Like when you sue someone, you have to claim that there's some like physical or financial damage that you've suffered, right?
So she's probably like, I can't sleep at night and I can't work.
That sounds like a Bus.
However, Megan Markle, like her sister is saying, like, okay, you said on Oprah or wherever, you said that you put yourself through school.
And she's like, no, our father paid for your USD.
Like, again, have I verified this myself?
I haven't.
No, we haven't verified.
No, and not.
And also, one thing I do know is I remember when her and Harry got together, Megan Merkel and Harry got together.
There was a photo of Megan Merkel outside the Buckingham Palace when she was like a teenager.
And it was like, oh, isn't this so cute?
Like, she was outside his house and like wanting to be with him.
And like, they didn't know each other.
But it's like, okay, stop right there.
Like, most people who are literally impoverished aren't going on Euro trips.
I didn't go to Europe as a kid.
I didn't even go to Disneyland.
But like I was saying before, like it's there's nothing wrong with being raised wealthy.
Like there's nothing wrong with that.
Yeah, exactly.
What matters is what you do with that.
Like how, like, what you do moving forward.
You know, don't you?
What you did was marry a prince.
Yeah.
And you know, she's so entitled.
And we tried to marry princes.
Yeah.
But it just, it didn't quite work out for us.
But we're going to try to do, you know, we're just, we're grateful for I had a, I had a pretty cushy upbringing as a child.
Like there were much richer kids than me and they were much poorer.
And I was like, I never wanted for anything.
I was never hungry.
Like growing up and realizing like some kids actually are hungry and their parents can't afford it.
That's like quite a shock.
And you're like, oh my God, like I'm so lucky that I never had to deal with that.
You know, that was a blessing.
Yes, exactly.
So no, now imagine me today trying to play in the oppression Olympics and pretending that I was hungry and that I was impoverished.
Like what a slap in the face to my family.
I just think it's embarrassing too.
It's insulting to people who are actually impoverished, who are actually hungry and who don't have access to like internet and all these and like after-school activities and which apparently trips to London.
Yeah, trips to London.
Like her sister's like, you did extracurriculars, like you went to private schools, like theater dance and stuff.
And again, like that's awesome.
I'm not saying like, oh, how dare you do all that stuff?
That's awesome.
It's just like don't spit in your parents' faces for giving you an awesome upbringing by pretending that you were oppressed.
Like that's so sad.
It's so bad for the family.
Blitz Sus Sisters 00:15:01
Yeah.
I don't know.
This sister seems a little sus though.

Anyway.

Let's do a blitz.

We're very stubborn.
All right, let's blitz it.

Want to avoid disability in old age?
Get a dog.
Researchers find dog owners are half as likely to be disabled in their 70s and 80s.

I wonder if the benefits will multiply the more dogs you have.
I'm thinking about getting like 10 pups.
Oh my God, that's genius.
Yeah.
That's absolutely genius.
I'm going to get seven more coonhounds.
I think you should.
Mom with Britain's biggest eyebrow says trolls call social services on her.
So I don't really, I don't see what her eyebrows have to do with her parenting other than the fact that she clearly has poor judgment.
Well, obviously, if you saw this woman walking down the street, you would be like, take her child away.
Obviously, right?
I don't know.
Mostly the lip liner, too.
I feel like, though, if the trolls really wanted to hit her where it hurts, they just send her some makeup remover and Q-tips.
Yeah.
She knows that she looks like a freak.
Yeah, she does.
She's a freak.
All right.
Chrissy Teigen looks fresh and rejuvenated in leggings and a sports bra after enjoying the spoils of a spa day in West Hollywood.

She's wearing a mask.
Oh, she looks so fresh and rejuvenated.
Actually, she looks pissed.
She does not look fresh.
I heard that she was canceled.
I thought we were done with her.
I don't think, I think she just like she just keeps coming back.
Oh my gosh, she's got like nine lashes.
Get out of here, Chrissy.
Britney Spears explains those naked pictures as she calls herself a rebel and a free woman while defiantly sharing another topless beach shot.

Yeah, Britt, you're like 40 and a mom.
I don't know.
Like, you can be a rebel with your clothes on.
You could be like, hey, I don't think you should mandate vaccines.
Like, that's pretty rebellious.
Yeah, that'd be sexy.
And keep your top on, too.
That'd be sexy.
All right.
Moving on.

Yeah, Robert, you're going to be fine.
You're going to be fine.
You look great, though.
He does look good.
Whoa.
And I don't think he should be in the spotlight for how hot he looks.
You know why he's in the spotlight?
Because he's a really freaking good actor.
Yeah, he's really good.

I don't know.
I have no idea.
I think after.
Yeah, maybe.
Okay.
Anyways.
Thanks, Robert.
Playboy model claims she was kicked out of an Airbnb for being too hot.
Comes to me all the time.
That's normal.
I just think, like, how does she know that?
How do you know that's the reason?
And I mean, yes, it does happen to us a lot too much.
All the time.
We kind of get it.
We're constantly escorted out of establishments.
I assume it's because we're too hot.
Yeah.
All right.

Oscar host, Amy Schumer, opens up about her positive impact of liposuction she underwent.
I'm feeling really good.
I was like, I hope you have something to say.
I don't.
Okay, mine was okay.
Oscar host, like, that's the only thing she's accomplished?
Yeah.
Like, who even watches the Oscars?
Don't worry.
She's known for plagiarism.
She's going to steal all of Billy Crystal's material, and it's going to be a great show.
I do like, though, that she admitted that that's why she lost herself.
That's cool.
No, that's cool.
I do actually respect that a lot.
That's probably the only time I've ever respected Amy Schumer.
I do love I Feel Pretty.
So I've never seen it.
You should watch it.
It's really good.
Okay.
Yeah.
She just, I used to do comedy and I like someone who she steals people's jokes.
I mean, it's so funny.
It's super uncool.
No, I'm just kidding.
Like, it's super uncool in the comedy world to do that.
So it's just like, meh.
And I don't, I don't find her that funny, but I really respect that.
She's like, hey, I got liposuction because it's quite fat and I feel skinny.
I feel like better now.
It's like, cool.
Let's not pretend you didn't.
All right.
Said Toronto says vaccine policies sustain effect for employees only because the science is different.
Yeah, the science is different.
If you're rich and you can afford to go to fancy restaurants and to spas and stuff, then COVID won't kill you.
But if you're poor and you work at the restaurant, then COVID will kill you.
So thank you, science.

Okay, we got Rihanna's naked.
Okay.
Okay.
Who the heck is that?
I actually like this.
Would I wear it?
No.
But I don't like that there's like a sparkle right where her goodie bits are.
Like, does that because it was, is that because it was see-through and you could see stuff?
Or no, I think that that sounds exactly I'm jealous.
Yeah, no, mine doesn't do that.
Um, okay.
Well, this is cute.
It's okay.
It's creative.
It looks, it is creative and it's pretty to look at.
It looks extremely uncomfortable.
Yeah.
Can you imagine the chafing?
Yeah.
It's not.
Oh, my God.
All right.
All right.
Moving on.
Who's this?
Zendaya.
She always looks so good.
Yeah, she's so, she's so beautiful.
She's so beautiful.
And I love this pink color.
We love pink on this show.
She looks great.
I like it.
Yeah.
I mean, I've seen her in something similar to this before, but it's awesome and she looks great.
So she's recycling ideas like Amy recycles other people's jokes.
Yeah, great.
Exactly.
Moving on.
Moving on.
Who are these people?
Who cares?
Don't hate it.
Oh, what?
Dudes, like, this is, what are you?
Jared Leto in 1999?
Like, get over this.
That's what I was thinking, too.
Yeah.
And I don't like this weird bra.
This is something that someone would wear to like a crappy club in Toronto.
Toronto, yeah.
They look like they're going to a club in Toronto.
Yeah.
Yeah.
They look bad.
I'm not a fan.
No.
Moving on.
Great.
Is this Dua Lipa?

And I love that top.
I love the big, puffy.
And her shoes are cute.
She looks great.
I love the bell bottoms with the slit in it.

She looks great.
She's gorgeous.
She is.
Who's this?
This is...
This is Bieber.
Yeah.
Baldwin.
Well, Bieber.
Haley.
She looks super old.
She does look super old there.
And she doesn't in any other photo I've ever seen.
That's just an unflattering.
I also don't like the dress.
No, this is.
I think you think she looks old because this is like Cougar goes out on a night.
It kind of looks like Courtney Cox.
Yes.
Out on the table.
Yeah, like when she's trying to get engaged to Chandler and Richard ruins it.
It's not cute.
It's not cute.
I also don't think I like her as a brunette, but I do.
She's so much prettier as a blonde.
I think so too.
Who's this?
That's a beautiful coat.
Yeah, you know what?
I don't know who this is.
Maria Sharpa.
Okay, well, I love this coat.
This coat I must have.
It's so perfect.
I love the sleeve, the cutout.
I like her bag too.
like her pant shoe combo though i do think that it's i also would you wear with that um I'd probably just wear the coat and nothing else because just heels.
I think so.
Yeah.
But I just think it doesn't look good on her either.
I don't know.
It just doesn't look good.
She looks kind of frumpy.
It's the pant shoe.
I think so too.
Their legs under that would be gorgeous.
Yeah, with stilettos.
Very pretty.
I think.
Who's that?
Ari, what's her name?
Adriana Lima.
I don't see anything.
Is she pregnant?
I don't know.
I'm going to get in trouble for saying that.
I don't like this.
It's all right.
I bet without the coat on.
Yeah.
There's something else going on there.
Well, she should.
She has some weird things on her fingers.
That's, you know, I don't like it.
Maybe she hurt herself.
It sucks.
Hope you feel better.
Yeah.
Get well soon.
All right.
Let's see.
Ooh.
Who is this person?
Can I do this?
Razat.
I don't know who that is.
I love her shirt personally.
That's definitely something that I would have seen in Star Trek.
I think it's great.
No, it is great.
It's very light.
Futuristic.
It's different.
It's flattering.
I have no idea what's going on beneath it, but I can't see.
My only concern is I find tops like that really widen and broaden the shoulder, which I don't always appreciate, but she's probably like so narrow it doesn't matter.
Anyway, very pretty.
That's cool.
I like that.
That's fashion.
These are actually, these have been more fashionable than the others.
I know we've seen.
This sucks, though.
Who is this?
This is, I don't care.
It's Serena.
Ugh, Serena.
Stick to tennis, girl.
Just get.
I didn't recognize her.
It's not.
I like her more natural.
I don't know.
I just don't.
It doesn't even look like this.
This is horrible.
This is like a Disney villain.
Yeah, it's not cute.
No.
It's not Halloween, girl.
No, girl.
Oh, this is Archie.
Archie.
I don't, I, so much black.
I can't even see.
Yeah.
I bet it looks hot in person, though.
Yeah.
Like, she's pretty.
I have no idea what's going on.
She looks like a.
She looks supple, though.
Yeah.
It's fine.
She's got very shiny shoulders.
Yeah.
Is that like a thing now?
I don't know.
Like shiny shoulders.
Should we be doing that right now?
My shoulders are very dark.
Are they shiny?
Hurry.
Hurry.
Fix it.
Does she have like gloss on her shoulders?
Quick.
Might be the gloss.
Is that all of them?
Nope.
Okay.
We got back to the possibility.
I can see that.
I can recognize that mug from a mile away.
I don't.
Her face is so plumped up with stuff.
There's nothing good happening here.
Those shoes look extremely uncomfortable, which you know is fashion.
Yeah, whatever.
Moving on, Beckham.
Black dress.
We've seen it.
You're going shopping.
Is this who's this?
Oh, what?
That looks like Sarah Jessica Parker.
I thought this was Cher.
I thought it was an old woman.
Yeah, like this was not a good outfit.
Girl.
Okay, the purse, bad.
The dress, bad.
I like the boots out.
That's a good one.
Okay, me.

Actually, dog walking.

Her, what?
I don't know what's happening here.
Bella, Bella.
Girl, all of that plastic surgery, like reversed.

You're going to look gorgeous for three years, but on the fourth year, you turn into an old woman.
This is like some bad Cinderella.
That's some bad.
I hate that.
Yeah, it's horrible.
Ooh.
Oh, that's pretty.
Oh, wait.

Nope.
No.
She's not in the circus.
Oh, my God.
She looks like she's in the circus.
What are you bad Sandy?
Get out of here.
It's bad.
No.
I'm like, that would be Cameltone.
