Highly Melanated Confessions: We Listen and We Don't Judge
Ever wondered why your morning routine might be the secret weapon you've been overlooking? We've cracked the code on how starting your day without immediately scrolling through your phone can lead to unexpected personal victories. From the calming embrace of weighted blankets to the quirky joy of morning rituals, we share laugh-out-loud stories and insights that just might inspire you to tweak your own routine. Join us as we celebrate the triumphs, both big and small, that come with embracing our unique quirks and finding comfort in them.
And speaking of quirks, let’s talk bathroom etiquette—the personal habits most of us wouldn’t discuss at the dinner table but are secretly curious about. We dive into the hilarity of public restroom strategies, the unspoken rules of using baby wipes in public, and even throw in some cheeky confessions about unconventional holiday traditions and collecting odd trinkets. Through this candid camaraderie, we create a judgment-free zone where sharing a laugh over shared experiences reminds us just how wonderfully human we all are.
As the year wraps up, we chat about the cathartic power of stepping back, regrouping, and missing out without the fear of it. With a lighthearted nod to 2025 and catchy rhymes, we reflect on the blessings of therapy, creative breakthroughs, and the beauty of not rushing through life. Our conversation is a heartfelt ode to self-care and community, underscoring our gratitude for you, our listeners, who make this journey so worthwhile. Here’s to recharging, renewing, and looking forward to new beginnings with open hearts.

Speaker 1:um me, I am still on comfort island. I'm trying to bring myself out of it. Um, it's kind of been a little down and out these past couple of days, um, but that's just normal for me for this time of year. So I'm kind of excited to see my cousins because I will be in savannah of the georgia, uh, as of next week.

There's quite a few people I know there that live within distance, but I'm going to see if I can like at least have lunch with them or something. But it's actually going to be late. So it will be dinner because I will not get over late. So it will be dinner because I will not get over. I won't get to Georgia until two o'clock in the morning. So yeah.

Speaker 1:Hey, it was also $400 cheaper.
Speaker 2:Oh, that's so on time.
Speaker 1:So I'm actually excited to see my cousins. I almost was not going to go and I think it was really their responses that made me All right, let me, let me, let me go. It is great to feel like you're missed, but I wasn't going to go because of things that I've been feeling, you know, mommy issues, but we got to work through that. Hopefully this year can be the year that we work through it peacefully, um, but there are some things that need to.
Speaker 2:I need to say and hopefully I won't say it like I said it that last that year, but yeah, but I mean, aside from that, I feel like every time that you do go and hang out with family, you have such a great time, yeah, and it's always so beautiful to see. I love seeing my friends at the end in their energy. Yeah.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I'm looking forward to that. Without it, I'm literally on Comfort Island just me and Fortnite shooting people. What about you, Chris Redd?
Speaker 2:That was like cough. So I'm kind of trying to get over that. That's been making me a little bit uncomfortable and work has been like a hella busy, but this was a really good week because of everything that we've been doing and just other stuff and another production, other piece for another project is coming out this week. So I'm just I've been. It's a nice little good streak in terms of productivity, I should say. But I think I think I am, I need to rest a little bit, so I'm just here.
Speaker 3:Make sure you do rest.
Speaker 2:That's important yeah yeah, I'm going to. I'm going to try. I mean, if the numbers don't stop going up, maybe I can calm down. You know what I mean? We up.
Speaker 1:Nothing can stop us. I'm all the way up, okay so, okay so. Yeah. I mean, I think, before you get into it, I think that I think.
Speaker 2:I know you really think about it, you have thoughts.
Speaker 1:I was going to say I really want to close out this year with a bang, and hearing it in my head as it came out was not the best way because it just further clarifies what you were saying, but I kind of want to.
Speaker 1:I'll bet you do not that kind of bang. I just want to be happy, I want to, I want to, I just want to. I just want to be happy, I want to be happier, um, and I just want to be in good spirits, that's all well, that's what we want for you too that's so nice.
Speaker 1:You may proceed. Like all eyes on you, let's all look at pj. Don't do that, you know I I realized, um as time has gone on, how much I do not like all eyes on me, um, how it makes me nervous and anxious opposite of tupac yeah, yeah, um, what is that?
Speaker 2:uh, I think, it's an issue one puck good night. Good night, no puck, no pocket well, that'll lead me to my question of the week, which is question of the week, question week your questions as they pertain to you perspectively and introspectively. So we were just talking about all eyes on you. I guess I'll end off this year with just asking a riddle or more. So what do you think? Which is which one? Is there more of Eyes or legs in the world?
Speaker 1:Niggas.
Speaker 3:Oh, what type of.
Speaker 1:I mean technically, there are more eyes because there are people without legs.
Speaker 3:Let's specify, because animals also have eyes and legs. Are you talking human species? Are you talking anything?
Speaker 2:Eye or legs, Anything that's living. But it's funny. I just like to point out it's real interesting how y'all thought that was real corny, but y'all really getting into it right now. All right, continue.
Speaker 1:You're fine. I'm just saying that this is what we're going to go with. We might as well do it correctly. It's still corny.
Speaker 3:I'm going to say legs, because think of all the centipedes and millipedes and this question is kind of lame-a-pedes.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I'm going to need you to come up with a better question. We're going to give you five minutes.
Speaker 2:No, no, no, no no.
Speaker 3:This is his question. With a better question we're going to give you five minutes.
Speaker 2:No, no, no, no, no.
Speaker 3:Why can't this get me a question? This is his question. This is his question. You want to go with it. I just like to go on the record as saying you've done better. This might not be your best work.
Speaker 1:We'll go with it, that's true, okay, so then question of the day wow I know I said I want to end this year on a bang, but not go ahead ask your question of the day. I'm sorry you don't have one nigga, can I, can I get the words? Question of the day? Question of the day your questions that you ask yourself while standing in the mirror? Um, is it okay to fart in public?
Speaker 3:what is what?
Speaker 1:I've never, I've never y'all doing this I am not a lottery winner, by the way are we seriously supposed to answer this? No, I'm just walking around.
Speaker 2:I have never asked myself that question.
Speaker 1:I haven't either. Okay, so let's do it that just means, it's okay then. All right, so question of the day, for real, then. What is the one affirmation that you love to repeat to yourself?
Speaker 3:Never settle.
Speaker 1:Okay, well, go ahead.
Speaker 2:I was gonna give me some time. One affirmation of the day which one? Are there more of legs or eyes? No, sorry, I just had to do it one more time. My affirmation of the day is actually one that I mentioned, I think, my favorite, which is if you want it so bad, it's probably because your future self already has it. I think that's my favorite. I do like that.
Speaker 1:I'll have the one that Blair said last week, so much that I had put it on my wall, which is are you dyslexic enough that I can read it? If you fail to plan, then you plan to fail.
Speaker 2:But what about the other one? If you plan to fail, then sorry.
Speaker 1:All right, Blair, it's your turn. Question of the year.
Speaker 3:Oh, I can't, Ah Dun dun dun Not the year.
Speaker 2:Oh, I can't Dun dun dun Not the pressure.
Speaker 3:Question of the year, a moment to reflect on 12 months of ups and downs. What 12 months of ups and downs? What is one thing in your routine that you've changed?
Speaker 2:Feeding this damn cat multiple times a day.
Speaker 1:One thing in my routine, for the better or for the worst just something you've changed um, let's see, I have made a lot of changes. I think one thing that I've changed is no screen time. No, no, no screen time until I'm at least up for an hour. So I'm not like waking up and directly going to Instagram, tiktok or Facebook and scrolling through things. I'm slowly waking up and my time with myself and my thoughts and my God.
Speaker 3:So, interestingly enough, mine is similar, because I can't recall if I started doing this last year or if it was this year, but I know I've been doing it for quite a while. But I make sure that the first thing that I look at every morning is my Bible app. Like I don't open social media, I don't open email, I don't open text messages, when I wake up in the morning and I pick up my phone, I just do that I have, but I make sure that the first moments that I spend once I'm awake are with God once I'm awake, are with God.
Speaker 2:Can I add to that? I think sometimes people they bottleneck themselves into oh, they have to do A or B or C, and I think it's the main theme I see is just affording yourself time so that you can have a moment of clarity, whether it be with yourself, whether it be with your higher power, whoever. I don't think that we do that. That's one of the things that I have trouble with at work as it is right now affording myself the time so I can just think instead of just do do. Doing so in the mornings I still have screen time. I'm not necessarily on our Bible app, but I now make my bed up because it forces me to just have a moment and just think so when we did the melanated, the melanated gems, I remember one.
Speaker 1:Her name was Samantha and she said every morning she makes her per bed. And when she said that you know now I do too, and there's something special about waking up and making your bed. Also, coming home to a bed that's already made makes you want to get immediately in it.
Speaker 3:Shout out to everybody who makes their bed first thing in the morning, because I don't and I probably never will.
Speaker 2:Let me tell you something. It doesn't have to be pretty because I make my bed. It ain't no freaking. You know what do they call it Hilton Hotel. There's nothing like that. It's literally just me folding over my sheets and I know that there's nothing on my bed. And it just gives me 10 minutes to just be like okay, all right, now I'm going to go do something else, or whatever it is.
Speaker 3:Still absolutely Shout out to y'all.
Speaker 1:I mean I just have a weighted blanket. I don't like sheets, so I just fix the blanket and the pillows and that's it.
Speaker 2:Can I tell you I don't know how I feel about weighted blankets. I want one, but I think I'd be too hot. That shit would be folded in the corner neatly.
Speaker 3:Depends on what weight you get.
Speaker 1:Mine is weight you get. Yeah, mine is the one. The one here in the living room which covers the couch um is 15 pounds, the one in the bedroom is 45 um, because, like, what am I doing?
Speaker 2:am I sleeping or am I training to fight some evil force that's coming to the planet?
Speaker 3:it's supposed to. It's, it's a you know, it's helpful for the nervous system. It, like the pressure is supposed to like have like a calming effect on your body because it's like Get off me, sorry. Well, that's different.
Speaker 1:Just remember, if you do ever get one, don't poke a hole in it, Because in each quilt part is about a thousand little itty bitty beads. That's what makes it weighted. I feel like you're talking from experience and you I am, so that's why this one is laying on the couch. Uh, because when this little terror, when she first got here uh I'm pointing to the dog that is nowhere in sight um, she's in the room.
Speaker 1:She's been why he's calling the coffee table a terror she's been very disappointed in me because she has not gone outside in these past couple of days, because I'm just not walking her as cold as it has been.
Speaker 3:Well, today was 60 degrees, though.
Speaker 1:I know, I know I'm going to take her outside when we're done, but today wasn't just. I just couldn't. I was going through stuff in my mind. But yeah, she tore it up and there were little beads everywhere, so that's it. But I would suggest you get one, and if you fold it up in the corner, that's fine. Maybe you just put it in the shape of a person I'm telling my business and just hold it all night. I don't have a plethora of people running in out this house, um, so it's usually just me, um, and I get lonely. I get so lonely. Pause, I wanna. I wanna also point out that I am so proud of myself for being as mature, mature as I. I I have been, um, because when you first said what you said, I said I laughed in my head because you were like you know, I do, do, do. And I was like he said do, do. I just had to acknowledge it. Gotta celebrate the little wins, even though we still mention it.
Speaker 3:I just had to acknowledge it, gotta celebrate the little wins, even though we still mention it.
Speaker 1:That you do. Speaking of celebrating the little wins, when we celebrate our little wins and our big wins, such as Living Kringle if you haven't seen it already, check it out. You know where to get the link.
Speaker 3:it's in jbt dub's bio on instagram, which is jbt dub, it's also um, on, hey, kimberly's, is it on her link tree?
Speaker 1:hey girl, hey, oh, hey, no, no, but I was just thinking about, um, kimberly, oh kimberly. I think it's on her link tree.
Speaker 3:Um, but, it's also in the hey girl, hey profile.
Speaker 1:It's also on hey girl, hey productions on there. You can also search for it on YouTube and if you have any questions, comments and concerns, please direct them there. We would love to hear you because the numbers are going up and we are making our nothing can stop me. I'm all the way up which, by by the way, um. I don't know if huh, it is yeah I've.
Speaker 1:I don't know if, um, if harvey has reached out to you or not, but he said that he's added it to the living single group, so it's getting a lot more eyes to like the living single Facebook groups.
Speaker 3:Okay.
Speaker 1:The way your eyes got big, like to them. But anyway, speaking of the little joys in the end, celebrating the we, we do all these things sometimes and a lot of times we, uh, are worried so much about what people say and think about us and there's this little trend that has been going around um, how does it go?
Speaker 1:we listen and we don't judge so, in the spirit of the end of the year, we are going to do a quick little, because it's going to be a quick episode y'all. A quick little. We listen and don't judge, and then we'll see if we're going to judge each other wow.
Speaker 3:I think the judgment has already been implied. Yeah, we're not.
Speaker 1:This is not a judgment, this is a judgment free zone been implied. Yeah, we're not. We're not. This is not a judgment. This is a judgment free zone. The highly melanated we're only judging unmelanated people.
Speaker 3:I feel like we're gonna judge each other we don't, I only.
Speaker 1:We only judge unmelanated people. That's it.
Speaker 3:The words and the opinions are spoken from pj and pj alone I just feel like we need to just go ahead and put that disclaimer on the bio, because you have to write every time.
Speaker 1:I'll lead this off. Give y'all some time. We listen and we don't judge. The reason why I don't like going into public restrooms to do number two is because I like to do it at home, because I not only use baby wipes, but I use a washcloth each, each time ladies and gentlemen, that's the silence of judging.
Speaker 3:It is.
Speaker 1:What is wrong with that? I wash my ass every single time I go to the bathroom.
Speaker 3:I can't do that in a public restroom. Is that what the baby wipe is for?
Speaker 1:Yeah, but I need soap. I have a poop rag, several of them. I love it how. This is the first one we did.
Speaker 3:I think you need to stop telling us. I think we need to change. I think we set a precedent where the judgment, when it's already judged, immediately more detail is not going to help.
Speaker 1:I mean, it makes sense. You wash your tootie, your booty, your fruity and your feet.
Speaker 2:That's what my grandmother used to say it's funny, because there used to be a time where I would not use public restrooms at all, and it wasn't until the. I think this happened in high school where I just could not use a restroom and I got so backed up that I kind of like passed out, like I held it in so like I was like and I passed out it was crazy.
Speaker 2:I was like I'm never doing that again. I was like I guess I'm just gonna go to the bathroom so yeah, just go to the bathroom while we're on the subject, since we're talking about bathroom habits.
Speaker 3:I, my habit is I.
Speaker 1:We listen and we don't judge.
Speaker 3:I only use the first or the last stall, like I don't like using any of the middle stalls. So if you walk into a bathroom and it's like a row, I either have to go in the first stall or the last stall so what if it's four?
Speaker 1:what if it's four?
Speaker 3:either number one or number four. The real issue is when there's only two.
Speaker 2:That kind of fucks me up so do you hold it in and pass out somewhere?
Speaker 3:No, I go. No, I go. I prefer for there to be more than two souls.
Speaker 1:I love it how we begin where things end In the toilet.
Speaker 3:Blair was like what are you talking about? I don't get it. I'll go, because I had my one from last week.
Speaker 1:She's cheating we listen and we don't judge.
Speaker 3:Do I condone Scarlett hitting that little black slave? No, Do I understand it when she told her that she knew all about birth and babies and then found out that she lied about it and then she hit her. I understand it. I don't condone it, but I understand it.
Speaker 2:We listen and we don't judge, unless we judging her, then that's something totally different.
Speaker 3:I mean, you can judge, ms Carly all day long, that's fine. She's used to it, I mean yeah okay yeah, I mean she even said in the movie I don't know why I told you such a powerful lie girl okay.
Speaker 2:I have one we listen and we don't judge. Okay, I have one we listen and we don't judge. I be tired sometimes.
Speaker 1:Wait cut, I'm sorry.
Speaker 2:Where is this going, and sometimes I get on the subway train and I'm able to get a seat or get on the subway or bus or public transportation or whatever, and I grab a seat and maybe there's other people that meet at the seat and all of a sudden I'm asleep. We listen and we don't judge. I'm tired sometimes I get up what if it's an old lady?
Speaker 1:I mean, she's lived her life, she don't mind standing up for a little bit longer With one leg.
Speaker 3:With one leg, I know.
Speaker 1:So, okay, we listen.
Speaker 3:We listen and we don't judge. We don't judge.
Speaker 1:I'm 100% on Team Thanos side. Genocide At random, save resources China does it.
Speaker 2:The silence is deafening between the two of you because you would be the one that would say that. And then next thing you know, you get in the snapshot of your damn self.
Speaker 1:I think that there does need to be some kind of like population control, and so I think that that is a. Am I lagging?
Speaker 3:Yeah, it's Thanos snapping you away. I was about to say it's already happening. Bye BJ, bye BJ. I don't really know how to respond to that.
Speaker 1:But I think that there's something to it. I think that he wasn't really the villain until he became the villain.
Speaker 3:Okay.
Speaker 2:Back to potty behavior and and bathroom behavior. We listen and we don't judge.
Speaker 3:Sometimes you know some of the sayings that you learn as a child and they just get stuck in your head. Sometimes I go a little too hard when it comes to the practice of if it's yellow, let it mellow.
Speaker 1:If it's brown, flush it down. When you say you go too hard, what do you mean? Please, please elaborate. I mean I require elaboration.
Speaker 3:Sometimes I will. If I'm just doing number one, I might let a couple of those build up before I flush.
Speaker 2:Wait, doesn't everybody?
Speaker 3:Doesn't, everybody Doesn't everybody. Isn't that the whole purpose of? If it's yellow, let it mellow. If it's brown, flush it down.
Speaker 1:I just be forgetting.
Speaker 3:See, now, that's different. Mine is purposeful, it's about water conservation.
Speaker 1:I just be forgetting. No, it's also hard to clean wait, what do you mean? You forget to listen sometimes, sometimes, sometimes, I've walked out and was like after you've used your poop rag listen right after you've been so diligent.
Speaker 2:Who could exactly you?
Speaker 3:so diligent with everything else but you forget, so understand this.
Speaker 1:Okay, let's go back to the first one.
Speaker 1:Okay, when I say that I'm not, using a wash no no, I am not using a washcloth to actually wipe shit out my ass. I'm using the washcloth to make sure that I'm I'm. It's like jumping in the shower, and this is another reason why I don't like going in public restrooms, because tent, I have a tendency to like, after I use the bathroom, to take a shower because I get naked when I um, I take my pants off, off, so so in the times that you did do like public pooping, I I just got, you just got butterball naked in the stall.
Speaker 1:Only if it's like a handicapped place, where it's like by itself. Yeah, unless I really really have to have to have to go, I will hold it until.
Speaker 2:Not you busted wide open in the handicapped stall.
Speaker 1:Not in the handicapped stall In the singular bathroom by itself.
Speaker 2:Yeah, tell us anything, but we listen and we don't judge.
Speaker 1:This was such a good idea at first.
Speaker 3:A whole session of us just roasting each other.
Speaker 2:All right, I'll go next.
Speaker 3:Please do we listen.
Speaker 2:And we don't judge. Don't judge. Yeah, good, good, you guys got it. You got it. Sorry, we're done. Listen and we don't judge. Listen and we don't judge.
Speaker 4:I, I don't know how that's going to come out, but whatever it's not that bad.
Speaker 3:I.
Speaker 2:I thought, we were judging. Hold on a second chill out, mellow yellow. Hold on a second. Hold on a second Chill out, mellow yellow. I imagine, or have imagined, everyone naked, every single person. I have a certain curiosity and everyone. I'm like, hmm, hmm, I, when I was at the gym today I even was like, nah, that can't be right. When I was thinking about this, I was like, wow, I have, I have, you're new, so I haven't, but I have.
Speaker 1:Now even like so when you say everybody everybody okay.
Speaker 2:Even like so when you say everybody, everybody, okay, okay. And to further elaborate, it's not on a sexual level thing, it's just based on pure curiosity. Okay.
Speaker 3:We listen and we don't judge.
Speaker 2:Okay, goodbye.
Speaker 1:It's okay because I'm about to step it up just a bit, because we listen and we don't judge. You said it Okay. As you have imagined everybody naked, I often imagine, uh, making out with everybody and, in a way of I know my sexual energy and what that does, um, and I know that I'm I'm the pleasure principal. So there are moments.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, yeah, I've been called, dubbed many things, but there are moments where I can see myself making out with, and I actually see myself Like if I'm on the train, I like which goes into my next? We listen and we don't judge which goes into my next, we listen and we don't judge. But, yeah, but.
Speaker 2:That's interesting, because I can't imagine doing that. The reason why is because everybody's hygiene is not the same. In my mind, I can imagine everybody naked, because I'm not touching them. Okay, that makes sense that makes sense.
Speaker 1:Let me also say not everybody. I'm talking about people that I know. Now, if I know you, you're clean, Until I know you're not clean.
Speaker 3:I was about to say everybody.
Speaker 2:Don't have your doo doo rag.
Speaker 1:That doesn't correspond not doo doo rag not everybody has a poo poo rag and I'll have you both know that I have a stack of off white rags and a stack of white rags.
Speaker 3:I don't know if you should be telling. I told you it's. I don't think the detail is helping you. So the white rags is for my face, it sounds like you want us to judge you because you keep giving us details. Holy moly, we listen and we don't judge. We don't judge sometimes Sometimes I'll see that somebody called and I won't call them back until I'm in the mood to speak to them.
Speaker 1:I mean, I think, that's everybody.
Speaker 2:Me too, girl, me too.
Speaker 1:That's like if I call you on my way home and I'm driving like from wherever I'm coming from and you don't pick up, then and you call me later. My battery is already done.
Speaker 3:Yeah, it's really a social battery thing. It's like do I have the energy for this? It's not. It's not like, oh, I don't want to talk to this person, all I know is that you two motherfuckers better pick up when I call.
Speaker 3:That's for the two of y'all I think I think the other thing about this whole thing is is that because everybody has cell phones now these days, there comes this expectation that everybody is always available to be reached, which is why there's benefits to that, but then there's also issues with that as well. So I think that I am doing my part to help manage expectations that just because you have somebody's phone number does not mean that they're always available to speak to you.
Speaker 1:Once again, the micromanager is micromanaging people's expectations. That is hilarious, but that is also one reason why I would not get an Apple Watch. I said this time and time again.
Speaker 3:It took me a long time to be able to get a watch that connected to my phone, because I didn't want to have another form of accessibility. Oh please.
Speaker 2:I just said cancel. You called me again and that's what it ended.
Speaker 3:That's mean because they know that you canceled them. Guess what, I don't care, I do. I know Because you're so nice. Like I said, I'll call them back just when I'm ready.
Speaker 2:I just feel like if I have to end it, and then I just have to end it. If you can't get with that or wrap your mind around that concept, that's not a loss for me, that's on you.
Speaker 1:Because here's the other thing now, now that Apple has done this new update as you're leaving the message, I can read it and maybe, if I want to talk, I might pick it up, correct? I think it's Go on. I stopped. Well, I was saying I think it's just, it's easier, unless you call and say hey, I'm just giving you a call, Call me back.
Speaker 2:I just I just think that you, I think people, just you gotta use your best judgment. I think some people abuse it and then that makes people feel crazy. But if you're legitimately busy, then you're legitimately busy. I have no problem ending something that technically never started, especially if I'm caught up doing other things. Today, I think we can end six calls in a row because I was at work doing 800 things.
Speaker 1:I'm so glad you know you just be setting it up, we listen and we don't. Don't judge that. I judge next unless it's warranted, so unless it's red. So I um was, you know, tuesdays is the day that I work. And um, I kindly said um no, they need me at the school to do something, they don't? Um, I, I lied, I needed time and they don't understand that, so I have to give an excuse. So sometimes I'll tell a little lie um which I don't like, I feel guilty about.
Speaker 1:It's probably why I'm saying it, but I needed this time because the last service the last service I did was kind of heavy for me, um, and it was also like on my grandfather's birthday, so like triple whammy but we support that we do we listen and we don't judge. Here's can't walk into like a supermarket or a convenience store without stealing a Kit Kat or some kind of gum or something.
Speaker 3:Did you say steal?
Speaker 1:I said steal Thief, unhand him, put it back. He didn't pay. Ooh, he's stealing. That's me I'm logging off.
Speaker 2:You're accomplice.
Speaker 3:That's me Not longer you ain't gonna have me associated with that with a thief.
Speaker 1:No, it's just also like a you know.
Speaker 3:Let's see if I can no judgment she's like I think you know right, because that's the job for a court of law. What you might be going to is that you openly admitted to stealing I mean, but it's only in supermarkets and places that sell food that doesn't make it better.
Speaker 1:Yes, it does. How? Because it's got to go bad if no one buys it so like. Let me help you.
Speaker 2:All right, I'll have one that adds to this. We listen and we don't judge, so I don't know if you guys ever noticed. Well, no, you've never been to my place, blair, but I have a thing for ducks, for ducks yeah. So they're all over the place like quack, quack ducks. So if anybody has like a little duck or like a rubber duck or stuff like that, I am probably going to take it, but I haven't yet, unlike some people.
Speaker 1:You take my ducky, I'm taking your pops.
Speaker 3:We listen.
Speaker 2:That's why I don't come over there. What the fuck.
Speaker 3:Leave me at all of that. I I have blue ones. I want both of you to.
Speaker 1:Go to a meeting.
Speaker 3:I do. Fucking kleptos, what the hell.
Speaker 1:I've been like this since I was a kid.
Speaker 3:It's kleptomania. Oh my God, I no. What was that?
Speaker 1:you stole that pj it was a big one too. It was a challenge. It was a challenge.
Speaker 4:Sometimes we listen and we don't judge. That is something small. We listen and we don't judge.
Speaker 1:You said something small. That is something small. We listen and we don't judge. Sometimes I will push the envelope just to see if I can get away with it.
Speaker 3:I want you to talk about this in therapy, I really do.
Speaker 2:First it's Kit Kats, then it's flat screen TVs.
Speaker 3:He said something small Like Kit Kats or a pack of gum. This nigga pulled out a 10 ounce bag of sour patch strawberries, oh sweet Jesus, I'll have you know it's 12 ounces. Oh, excuse me, I've been off the sugar. My candy game is off, sorry.
Speaker 2:Two more ounces of.
Speaker 1:We listen and we don't judge.
Speaker 2:I didn't put up a Christmas tree.
Speaker 3:Are you going to? No, you said that as in like that's the only reason I asked that question, because you said it like why would you put up a Christmas tree? Let me start there.
Speaker 2:I have a Christmas tree and I always say I'm going to put it up, but I always just feel like I don't know. I also have a.
Speaker 3:Christmas tree and I haven't put it up yet either. No, I would like to think that I'm going to get it up before Christmas, but we'll see.
Speaker 1:We listen and we don't judge Nine times out of ten. If you've given me your number and you don't see me save it in my phone with your name, your number is not saved in my phone I'm, I'm, I am a thousand percent on that as well who are you?
Speaker 3:seven, three, two exactly now you have to scroll back and see what the conversation was go back in the conversation to see who this person is. I, yep, yep, we listen and we don't judge. If I give you my instagram handle, it's because I don't want to give you my phone number gotta make sure that you're right first.
Speaker 3:Yeah, safety's important and we don't judge. I have my DMs categorized so that the primary are the people that I like and the general are people that, if I don't get back to your message immediately, it's not the end of the world.
Speaker 1:DM, I do that too it's the fact that you save them, you sort them, but I do get back to everybody.
Speaker 3:It's just I might take. But I do get back to everybody. It's just I might take a little longer to get back to the general than I will the general?
Speaker 2:Well, the general, they don't have to VIP pass. You gotta be quicker than that.
Speaker 1:We listen and we don't judge.
Speaker 3:I take roughly about um five pictures of myself a day clothed and unclothed. I was waiting for the mic to drop. Right right, right. I was all like what's where's the rest of it?
Speaker 1:so I am actually in the process, now that I have the ipad and the iphone, um, that apple's done this new thing with shared libraries, um, I'm in the process of, like, moving things to the shared library so I can delete it, but then it's not getting deleted. So it's really frustrating because I'm about to go down to Georgia and I don't want to leave anything somewhere, so I have, like you have to use your finger, my finger, to access my photos. We listen but we don't judge. I am into recording sex, but I do not post sex that I've had. What do you do with it?
Speaker 1:It's my own personal library.
Speaker 3:We listen but we Do. Your partners know that you're recording.
Speaker 1:Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, because it's set up, it's a whole, it's a whole to do you got a whole tv studio. I literally airplay it to the tv. We listen and we don't judge. I rarely actually look at porn. I look at me fucking.
Speaker 2:I do that too. I don't it's kind of like you're looking at what you can. I don't even know how to even put that, but I have done that.
Speaker 3:I think maybe it's a guy thing we listen and we don't judge.
Speaker 1:Um, if I'm going anywhere, in nine times out of ten I am wearing sweatpants. I'm usually listening to porn in my head, so my junk is like semi-soft, semi-hard.
Speaker 3:We're getting real personal.
Speaker 1:But it's like wait. This is not what we intended.
Speaker 3:Oh my.
Speaker 1:We listened and I got a whole bunch of those.
Speaker 2:Oh my God, you were so ready for this.
Speaker 3:I know.
Speaker 2:This was a race I'm definitely losing.
Speaker 1:Yeah, because I was the one who was ready.
Speaker 3:You were.
Speaker 2:Touche.
Speaker 1:Touche Well come on with it, then we listen.
Speaker 3:I don't want to be the only one sharing shit we'll jump in when it's appropriate, but you seem so comfortable we listen and we don't judge. We listen and we don't judge every we listen and we don't judge.
Speaker 1:Every single time I fart. I have to smell my fart Like I have to every single time. I guess that's making sure that everything is it's making sure that it's it's not as lethal as I feel it may be, until it's like whoa, and then I have to to fan it off. Shout out to all you listeners out there who are learning so much more about us.
Speaker 3:They've learned a lot about you, pj.
Speaker 1:So share some stuff y'all.
Speaker 3:They've learned a few things about us. They've learned a lot about you. Oh, my God.
Speaker 2:We listen and we don't judge. I don't, we don't judge. I don't mind some exhibitionism.
Speaker 1:It's on the tip of her tongue, y'all.
Speaker 3:It is. I'll tell y'all after the podcast, but I won't tell the world.
Speaker 1:Oh, come on.
Speaker 3:It's just a little Not the peer pressure Come on.
Speaker 1:It's just a little old pair, a little old podcast.
Speaker 3:Come on, oh, my God. We listen and we don't judge. Sometimes I'll wear the same pair of socks for a couple of days. So, it's okay to talk about feet.
Speaker 1:You know we don't judge. I literally have so much laundry.
Speaker 3:Come on, feet, feet. I feel like my feet are clean when I put them in. There's nothing really going on down there. These can rock for a couple days before I switch them out for a new pair let me find out you got cheesy toes, blair. First of all, my toes are not cheesy. Let's see, they might be ashy. My toes are not cheesy. Let's see, they might be ashy, but they're not cheesy. It ain't no doubt easy if it ain't cheesy.
Speaker 1:No see, because you are adding to what he was saying earlier. We're not judging, but he has seen us all naked, so he just needs to see your feet and then it's a wrap.
Speaker 3:He's imagined he has not seen us naked. He's imagined what we look like naked yeah that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 1:He's seen it in his head.
Speaker 3:He's seen what he thinks, but he hasn't seen the real thing. He doesn't know, what he thinks matches with what's true.
Speaker 1:We listen and we don't judge. If I walk past your apartment and your windows are open, I am all up in your place. I love looking through people's windows. I love looking through people's windows.
Speaker 2:I think it's interesting.
Speaker 3:Yeah, that's why I like people watching. We listen and we don't judge, I am I am watching.
Speaker 1:I am, I am into um okay, well, this is, this is teetering um watching people, um.
Speaker 3:There is a few websites that the people watching no, it's a you just had to be different, huh no, no, it's.
Speaker 1:It's watching people, just like they have a camera set up in their house and it's just like big brother, like so, that's not so.
Speaker 3:That's like watching people yes, it is okay, fair, fair it is.
Speaker 2:it is interesting to watch people, though, because you realize that a lot of people just do things so much differently than you, like you know, despite the fact that we know each other and we have so many similarities, because this is why we kind of get along. You watch the next person and it's like totally night and day, like what. Like you just let the dog just eat all the cereal out the bowl and then lick your face and then just sit there and, like I would, never, I'm judging.
Speaker 1:We listen and we don't judge. If I am using the bathroom in a public restroom and it's a urinal and you happen to stand next to me, I'm going to peek. Isn't that the thing You're not supposed to?
Speaker 3:you happen to stand next to me, I'm going to peek. Isn't that the thing You're not supposed to like? Stand directly next to somebody, otherwise you're opening yourself up to that.
Speaker 1:Hey, take a look at mine if you want.
Speaker 2:But that has to deal with, like, what's the setup of the urinals. So to your, you know three stall, I only choose the first or the end stall. It's the same thing with guys.
Speaker 1:We really shouldn't be only using one or the other, not the middle you don't know how many churches I've been to since doing this whole funeral, uh job that their bathrooms are just uh urinal next to urinal and then a little child urinal but there's no divider, and I'm I will not do that in church. Okay, I do have some morals I was waiting.
Speaker 1:You have what I will not have what yeah, there's a lot of places that don't judge if you are sitting next to me on the train. On your phone, I'm looking at your phone I think we all are well, how else am I supposed to be entertained the entire? Time sitting behind you.
Speaker 2:I am looking at your phone I want to know why your wife is yelling at you. I do too. I want to see what apps you have.
Speaker 1:It's.
Speaker 2:I want to see how much you got in your bank account. I want to see all of that.
Speaker 1:We listen and we don't judge. I sometimes be rushing to get home to do absolutely positively nothing. Nothing and will not answer the phone at all and just be completely on comfort island.
Speaker 2:I'm only 20 minutes away from work. I will get on a rocket ship to get to my house.
Speaker 3:Not a rocket ship.
Speaker 2:Definitely.
Speaker 1:We listen, but we don't judge. There are moments where I am intentionally trying to be late for work and still get there on time.
Speaker 3:We listen and we don't judge, since I've been getting rides to work for the last year or so. If I have to take the train, I'm coming to work late. That's just. It's just. That's just what it is. That's what I had to take the train to work this morning. What time did I get there? 9 30? What time was I supposed to get there? Eight o'clock?
Speaker 1:damn girl. That's how you can tell that you're you're needed at the because listen, okay, just don't say not a word to me maybe don't do it on views, that shit, like I did when I was working at nyu shut up to the worst place I've ever worked um, I was. I was on time for the six months uh probation that you get as a manager, but once that shit was over, I was at least late three to four times a week out of a five day work week.
Speaker 2:I was about to say damn, there's only five days of the week what they gonna do fire me.
Speaker 1:I feel a quota. That's how I was treated. That's why it's the worst place I've ever worked we listen and we don't judge.
Speaker 3:I don't put lotion on my feet because I don't like feet so you used to neglect your feet I lotion every other inch of my body, except my feet. Your feet must look crazy. I have to, so this is like daily. After I get out of the shower and I put lotion on, stop it.
Speaker 3:He's trying to put this piece together. After I get out of the shower and I start lotioning my body, I always stop at my ankles. I don't lotion my feet daily. It has to be like a specific dedicated time for me to put lotion on my feet and what day is that? It's usually like once a week on my feet.
Speaker 1:What day is that?
Speaker 3:It's usually like once a week, okay. Okay, I'm sorry.
Speaker 1:We listen and we don't judge. I don't shower every day.
Speaker 3:Now you're a white person.
Speaker 1:And okay, so there are seven days in a week, let's say the days that I'm home and I'm not going anywhere.
Speaker 3:I'm where I think. But see, that's different. I think that's most people. Okay, they might not admit to it, because I'm like that too, if I have. If I did not go anywhere today, I didn't have any intentions on going anywhere. I didn't go to the gym. I've literally been her. What is it called Hercule Durkling? All day. That's the? Is it Swedish term for just laying about in bed. I probably did not shower that day. Now will I shower the next day, absolutely.
Speaker 1:Absolutely. We listen and we don't judge. I prefer to shower in the morning, but I can't get in my bed with dirty feet, so I will run the bathwater and, like, massage my feet under the water and then get in the bed.
Speaker 3:Query how are your feet getting dirty? I'm walking around barefoot.
Speaker 2:Oh see.
Speaker 3:I don't do that.
Speaker 1:You don't have slippers.
Speaker 3:I have them on now.
Speaker 2:I thought you were talking to me. You're barefoot, we're going to be traumatized.
Speaker 1:I'll have you know. I have really nice feet, since you brought up feet. We listen, but we don't judge. Uh-oh, nope, wait. Christmas is ready. He's like she's going to show me, Show you what your feet? Show me your feet, girl.
Speaker 2:Show me one of them, show me a foot. I will not, and then I'll be able to put it together Like oh, that's just the missing piece of the puzzle.
Speaker 3:Huh, you can imagine everything down to the ankles, but my feet.
Speaker 1:You just walk around like a sick.
Speaker 3:You've got a whole picture of me in your head and it stops in my ankles.
Speaker 1:You know, those little Fisher Price toys, those little Fisher Price humans, like the construction worker and all those things they're called little people. We listen and we don't judge. I would I like putting lotion on feet and it turns me on to rub feet together that are lotion. We okay, I'll change it now. We listen, but we don't judge. I like to be punched in bed absolutely not punched.
Speaker 2:Punched me, I'm figuring.
Speaker 1:These are the things that I learn as I get older.
Speaker 3:A lot of these things that you are admitting to us. I really want you to talk to a therapist about Like no, no joke.
Speaker 1:Wait, sidebar. Sidebar, though. The last person that I you know did the little herkle-derkle with I said hit me. He was like the fuck, hit me in my like, pound my chest is what.
Speaker 2:I'm saying Not hit my face, unless.
Speaker 1:I want you to hit me in my like, pound my chest is what I'm saying.
Speaker 3:Not hit my face unless I want you to hit me in the face. We listen, but we don't judge. The first I'll go is choking somebody not helping. What'd you say?
Speaker 2:I said, I said we listen, but we don't judge the first. I'm going to choking somebody one more time your words are choking your words are all running together.
Speaker 3:Speak slowly.
Speaker 2:I said we listen, but we don't judge. The only thing that I will do, the furthest I will go, is choking somebody.
Speaker 3:The furthest I will go is choking. All we heard was the loud, loud, choking.
Speaker 2:Choking somebody.
Speaker 1:What.
Speaker 3:Someone's choking me.
Speaker 1:It wasn't even like that. Every other word was choking.
Speaker 3:It wasn't it that every other word was. It wasn't it was choking.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I don't know why it came out like that, but yeah it's twice.
Speaker 3:And it wasn't just okay, it wasn't me, I was a crazy because I okay.
Speaker 1:Um, my god in heaven we listen but we don't judge. Um, I terribly need to clean out my refrigerator. Um, I haven't cooked in quite some time so I haven't bothered keeping that refrigerator super duper clean, uh. Nor have I washed um some dishes that have been sitting in my sink for maybe like two weeks Until today. I did them today.
Speaker 2:Two weeks, two weeks, come on, fragrant.
Speaker 3:Yeah, it's a little ripe.
Speaker 1:No, they're dishes. It ain't like it's a thing with food in it.
Speaker 2:What do you put on food? What do you put on dishes? What do you put on dishes? Come on poker. Recent.
Speaker 1:See, I thought that this was a safe space.
Speaker 3:You thought wrong.
Speaker 1:You know you did, you know I'll walk past it.
Speaker 3:I will walk, don't judge. I've been saying for the last two years that I'm going to lose 20 pounds and have not done it.
Speaker 2:Oh, listen, we listen, but we don't judge. Every time I work out right, I eat wrong. So what is that?
Speaker 3:This is it. This is my michael jackson tour. This is it listen.
Speaker 1:I'm like, if we listen, but we don't judge upon my late night research at in one of my um videos. Um, I happened to notice what my body looked like, maybe about like five years ago, six years ago, and I just said fuck it, this is what it is right now.
Speaker 3:I've given up we listen, but we don't judge all things that I want you to talk to a therapist about. I don't want you to give up on yourself. I don't want you to have others cause you physical harm in order for you to feel pleasure stop, don't kink, shame. I'm not, it's a kink. Okay, we listen, but we don't Stop, don't kink. Shame.
Speaker 1:I'm not, it's a kink. Okay, we listen but we don't.
Speaker 2:That's sadist.
Speaker 1:That's masochistic.
Speaker 2:I need to purchase new underwear. I've had my underwear for way too long. Listen, listen, there's no more bones.
Speaker 3:I was going through some of my old underwear the other day I was like this really should not still be in the rotation.
Speaker 1:We listen, but we don't judge. Some of my favorite underwear has holes in them.
Speaker 3:We listen, but we don't judge. I don't do laundry until I run out of underwear.
Speaker 1:For me socks.
Speaker 3:I don't do laundry until I run out of clean underwear.
Speaker 2:Listen, if I run out of underwear, Guess what? I ain't wearing no underwear. That's why I'm wearing tights. I guess there ain't gonna be no underwear today. That's why I'm wearing tights. Ain't nobody need that anyway, because it's gonna get you all hot.
Speaker 1:Okay, listen, I'm wearing full tights, god in heaven. Tights and sweats. We listen, but we don't judge. I look at old people and wonder what they look like when they were younger, so I can envision them in their sex life. Times were different back then. It's the astounding silence for me.
Speaker 3:No, bj. You know pj, we listen and we don't judge. Sometimes I wonder what my life would be like if I had said yes oh, we're flipping it now.
Speaker 2:That's deep, I think I've thought about that too. I think we all have.
Speaker 3:I've never had to say yes, because no one's ever proposed to me well, even if it wasn't a yes in terms of proposal, just choosing one way versus the other exactly like I, just sometimes I wonder what would have been if all of the circumstances had been different, like if it had been a good situation, you know, in a situation where I could have said yes, how different would what would? What would what would it be right now? And that's not just just to be clear in case whoever hears this one day.
Speaker 1:It ain't you.
Speaker 3:Well, it might be I do not regret the decision that I made.
Speaker 1:She said what she said.
Speaker 3:But, when it comes to any choice that you make, sometimes you wonder what would have happened if you had made a different choice, regardless of how you feel about the decision that you did make.
Speaker 2:I think that your person, your being, doesn't get better in just one particular way, right? So if you went one way, you would have gotten better in column A, and if you went another way, you would have got better in column B. So there isn't really a wrong answer. So the regret for the people out there should always never be on the table, but I think it's okay to, to your point, to wonder.
Speaker 3:Yeah, that's my thing. I definitely I like to out-regret, but I just I wonder like, if everything had been, if it had been different and it had been a scenario where I would have wanted to say yes, what would life look like right now?
Speaker 1:you would have had like 18 kids nigga all the more reason why I didn't say yes alright, I'm not sure if I told you guys this before, so instead I'm just gonna tell the world we listen.
