Welcome to Beach to Sandy Water to Wet, a podcast featuring real reviews written by people who just need the world to know what they think. Between you and me, I wanted to like this podcast, but I'd give it zero stars if I could. Hello and welcome to Beach to Sandy Water Too, at the podcast where we read the worst reviews in the most dramatic fashion. I'm your sister host, Christine. I am your brother, host. I know.
Starting point is 00:01:18 She forget sometimes the way that she treats me, I think. She forgets. She's too nice. She forgot. Okay. Stop. Our last name is Sheifer. Wow.
Starting point is 00:01:27 We're the Sheifer Sibbs and you know it. We are now on video, which maybe was why she's acting. I think it's like being perceived makes me. You know, like in quantum physics. No, I don't. I'm serious. Yes. When something is viewed, it's observed.
Starting point is 00:01:41 It acts differently. That's right. And that's kind of how I am. Yeah. Cool. Yeah. I don't like it. It's like on a granular level.
Starting point is 00:01:48 Yeah. So the podcast is completely changing now because it's not just for patrons. We are on YouTube and our latest video got some views. And we're like, oh shit, people actually see it. Now I'm just like my head is exploded. I think like I'm just a YouTube star. My whole persona is different. But we do have some YouTube videos up.
Starting point is 00:02:08 We are so excited about a couple in particular, one of which is on our YouTube channel. We did a crossover episode with For Your Amusement Pod cast. We did one on the feed that has already come out on our show, where we read reviews of Benihana. And we had the best time. It was so good. And if you don't know what free amusement is, it features Byron Marin, but then also, a little somebody. We love Byron.
Starting point is 00:02:29 I just keep. No, I'm like, who the fuck is this other guy? Byron Stan. Byron is the only one I care about on that podcast. But Ryan Bergara of BuzzFeed Unsolved, Fame, Watcher Entertainment. Yeah. Just kidding. They are great.
Starting point is 00:02:43 They do a theme park podcast. We did a crossover with them, which was reviews of Benny Hohraud. because they had quite a dramatic experience there. And that is our first YouTube video up in a while. I mean, it's our first video episode ever on YouTube. So yeah. And then the other one that we were on was I said no gift. I have a big week.
Starting point is 00:03:00 Honestly, it was like a good. God. I keep like saying, well, you're welcome because I've been working on manifesting abundance. And I said, if I haven't. Come on. Oh, sooner. My moon crystals, though, are working overtime right now. Sometimes I take you with me.
Starting point is 00:03:13 It went on my abundance journeys. And here we are with. What the fuck. Does that happen? Britcher Wynaker. Sounds like we're doing some sort of like. So get this. Pilgrimage with your pilgrim shoes.
Starting point is 00:03:22 You followed me to exactly right studios because that's right, folks. I got to meet half of BuzzFeed Unsolved and Byron. And I got to go to the exactly right studios in the same day and it was the best day ever. And Alex and I were both like, it was so surreal. It was surreal. It was surreal. And it still is. And that should be up by on YouTube now.
Starting point is 00:03:40 I said no gifts. We have such a good time. Bridger Wiener is like the nicest and so fucking funny. Look, I'm getting... Thanks for making this my life. I'm very grateful. I'm going to say it again. You're welcome.
Starting point is 00:03:50 Thank you. It's my abundance. It's not wrong. Done at all. I have to admit that. But really quick on a personal note, I did move back to Ohio and I apparently mentioned that and I said no gifts. I was planning on moving to Portland, Oregon, and I'd still like to.
Starting point is 00:04:04 But I'm staying here to deal with a lot of health stuff that I've complained about and joked about, like my brain tumor that hasn't done anything. I'm fine. I'm fine. But it does exist. It exists and I want it out. And like, while we're speaking about. about manifesting. You did sort of manifest that years ago by saying I have a brain tumor and then
Starting point is 00:04:21 years later you literally had one. So I feel like you should be a little more careful with your words because I do have power and meaning. That's why I keep saying I want surgery because I want someone to lobomize me. Okay. Well, we can work on that later. So welcome to reviews of jewelry. This is episode 377. I'm extremely excited. That's fun. Yeah. No, this was a good one. Do you want to know why? It's a good idea. Tell me. Because I got back into my QVC game. Oh, fuck. I'm so excited. Somehow I did not even consider QVC. I was literally talking to mom and Tim about QVC. Oh, God.
Starting point is 00:04:51 Because Tim was talking about his great aunt. Like, yeah, she had all these dolls. She collected. And then he was like, yeah, she got him from QVC. I'm like, oh. I was like, he's right. They aren't worth anything anymore. Like, anymore, I said.
Starting point is 00:05:04 She probably had to paint them all herself because they came. Are they illuminated mercury glass by Val? Because in that case, they might be worth a thing or two. No, I think, I think, oh, I don't. Maybe a lawsuit. There was a lot of uranium, but I don't think it was intentional in those stalls. Yeah. Interesting.
Starting point is 00:05:20 Interesting. He sourced the hair from Chernobyl. Alexander. I don't know what that even would mean. I don't know either. Just cut it out. This is a review sent in by Taylor Sheher. It's her first time submitting on the website, which by the way is a Patreon feature that you can submit.
Starting point is 00:05:35 Oh, we only have the $5 tier, by the way now. You get everything, including ad-free video. Yeah, we eliminated everyone in the $10 tier. One by one, we picked them off. and now they're all gone. I mean, you started that. Please, I was going along with your bit and you're like, Alexander, don't say that.
Starting point is 00:05:53 When we eliminated them, I didn't mean kill them. Taylor said, I was her first time submitting and sent some QVC reviews for me. And I said, wow, Taylor, you knew how to like, really. Let's hope it's your last time submitting. No, okay. This is a review of the DiMonique X, like crossover. X Jennifer Miller Evil Eye necklace Sterling Silver.
Starting point is 00:06:17 Okay, who's Monique? This is a review by Jeannie B. The title is, It Scared Me. What? Evil eye. It was a beautiful piece of jewelry, but I looked at the meaning of evil eye,
Starting point is 00:06:29 and I just could not wear it. So I sent it back. Other people have their ideas, but it actually scared me to death. So I returned it. End of review. Doesn't it like war it off things? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:39 What the fuck? Like, uh-uh. That's what I welcome in my life. the, I don't actually know, like, spirits? Like, what's it? I don't want to be insensitive. Is there like a Greek thing? So it's across a variety of cultures.
Starting point is 00:06:52 The idea typically means it is warding you from other people's negative energy. If there are literally people hexing you or like saying that. Is that why you wearing one every, only when we were cold? I'm being perceived and I told you. That's why my hexes don't work too, huh? Yeah, your hexes get bounced right back at you. No wonder you have a brain tumor. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:12 I wanted you. to have one. I know. You're so right. I was trying to manifest you having a brain tumor and like all those other mental health things. I got those down. I gave those to you. But the brain tumor. Actually, we haven't checked. Maybe get an MRI. Maybe get an MRI when you have the chance. Five people found this unhelpful. Make it six. I like this. Other people have their ideas. Yeah. Okay. Well, but what did you think it was? It's called evil eye. Like, were you like, oh, I'm a good, God-fearing woman, evil eye. That must be something nice and pleasant. It's just the opposite.
Starting point is 00:07:45 They're like, evil eye, this must be evil. Finding out that it keeps away evil, they're like, how am I going to live with this thing? Because I'm an evil person. Where will all my in-laws go? Yeah. Oh, my God, wait. Is that person's named Gru? Standard.
Starting point is 00:07:57 Is that what that was? No, that's a genre of comedy I don't want to get into right now. To be fair, if you'd Google Evil Eye, this is what comes up. Because I wanted to see, the evil eye is a supernatural belief in a curse brought about by a malevolent glare, usually inspired by envy. So an evil eye amulet is meant to protect from the evil eye. But if you look up evil eye, it's sort of like the idea of hexing someone or putting bad energy towards someone. So I imagine she looked it up and was like, why the fuck would I wear this?
Starting point is 00:08:23 Thinking that this thing is going to like be really unlucky for her as if anyone would want that? It's kind of weird. Why would DiMoneke ever sell that if it were bad luck, you know? Yeah, no, but Jennifer Miller? No, true. I don't know if that's the right name. Yeah, that's right. Crazy.
Starting point is 00:08:37 I got that right. I never do. Here's a review from Sam. He, him. This is of Bobbles Hawaiian iced-scented premium candle and jewelry with surprise earring inside, 10-ounce large candle made in USA, paraffin-free, earring. That's a lot happening. It's basically you get a couple earrings once your candle is done burning. No, then they're all waxy and like...
Starting point is 00:09:00 The earrings are made of wax, so you have to make sure to not let the wick get there because then you're just going to melt them. Oh, right. So when it's melted and liquid, you put your hand in and you try to fish out the... No, you stunk your ears in, so it's fitted to you. Okay, all right. Okay, no, it's these two earrings, and here's a one-star review. Tired of not getting the jewelry. There's no jewelry in the candle. I thought the first time was a mistake, and then the second time,
Starting point is 00:09:28 then got a broken piece, and now a third with no jewelry. Not happy. I tried to be understanding, but now I am done. I tried contacting them to no avail. Very sad. I have enjoyed several years of these candles and have been very forgiving. What? But not anymore.
Starting point is 00:09:47 End of review. Oh, no. If you have to forgive a candle slash jewelry product after three times not getting what you want. I'll be honest. That's a tough life to live. That's a tough life to live. But like, man, you got to get it together. Like, if you're buying all these candles just for the jewelry, what is up with this jewelry that it's so great?
Starting point is 00:10:05 It sounds like it's covered in wax. I don't really don't understand. It sounds like a schick, like a gimmick. And they're not, they look like costume jewelry. Not in like negative, but I don't. Well, obviously they don't because they don't exist. That's true. If you did get them though, they look like costume jewelry, I think a little bit.
Starting point is 00:10:19 Do you think she's just like not finding them? It's just so weird that like she'd get four of them and there's no. No, that doesn't make any sense. It doesn't make any sense. But like I don't disbelieve it. I just find it unbelievable in some ways. Like how is that possible? How diplomatic.
Starting point is 00:10:34 Yeah. Thank you. One person found that unhelpful and it was me. Yeah. Well, I will say, I feel like, well, you brought this. up, but George W. Bush had a good point. Fool me once. Shame on you. Fool me twice. Shame on me. Fool me three times.
Starting point is 00:10:47 Won't get fooled again. And this person said the same thing and was like, I'm done. Three times, won't get fooled again because I'm never by. I'm not forgiving you. Although they said I've been using this for years. I think those three candles have come over the years. I mean, if it takes you a year to burn down only to find there's no jewelry, I'd be pretty annoyed too. But yeah. One and done for me, man. Won't get fooled again. So this is from Taylor also.
Starting point is 00:11:11 It's another QVC review of Connemara Marble, Sterling Silver, mother and child pendant with 18-inch chain. One star called Will Give Me Nightmares. O-M-G, the baby and mother look like vampires. Why did I purchase this? What? If you can make them with detail as such,
Starting point is 00:11:32 then please make them peaceful and sweet instead. End of review. What the hell? That's a baby? Like a creepy old man. It looks kind of like Grover. Oh yeah. Like the nose.
Starting point is 00:11:47 He does kind of look like Grover. Like a Muppet. Yeah. I don't even know how to describe this. The more I look at it, he kind of looks half like Mario's face as well. Listen, beauty's in the eye of the beholder. Super Mario. For all you Gen X people.
Starting point is 00:12:02 Can I read real quick a five-star view that's kind of a rebuttal to the first one? I would love that. The title is Beautiful. handmade necklace. Oh, it's handmade. That explains. Whose hands yours? Come on. I love the mother and child pendant done in artistic detail. I received many compliments. It's small, so you see a cameo image of the blessed mother cradling Jesus. You can't see the faces unless you zoom in with a camera. This is handcrafted, so maybe pieces vary.
Starting point is 00:12:33 The piece I received is beautiful. The silver and marble are beautiful and substantial. End of review. So as long as you don't look too close. Have like a private eye with a big telescopic lens. Zoom just like taking pictures of you, you're good. And if you do have a private eye, it's actually good too because then they'll be so distracted by your neck pendant. They won't check if you're cheating or not. Well, no, they'll be distracted by the evil eye.
Starting point is 00:12:57 Famously private eyes do not like the evil eyes. That's true. It bounces right back. They take a picture. It takes a picture of themselves. Holy shit. A selfie? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:06 This next one is from Stacey. she her, who sent in a review of Retchik goo mythology fairy tale lucky charms stuff, bangle, bracelet, cross-leaf, moon, face Celtic a cat. What?
Starting point is 00:13:24 Is this a charm bracelet with a bunch of shit on it? I'm telling you a bunch. I think a bunch. There is an evil eye on it as well. Oh, really? It's jangly this thing. It has an onk. Is that A.M.K.H. You know? Oh, wow. It's covering all its vases. No, it has everything. It has a broom.
Starting point is 00:13:38 Or is it a Celtic cross? I see what you're saying. Okay. Oh, and it's on Amazon. Wow. Oh, yeah. And it's in the color vintage silvery. Yeah, vintage silvery.
Starting point is 00:13:46 It's a solid $8.49. Oh, wow. Yeah, so I definitely don't think it would discolor your skin at all. Certainly not. No way. But yeah, it has a bunch of different symbols from different cultures, religions, et cetera, different charms. And here is a one-star review. And it's titled About Bracelet.
Starting point is 00:14:03 So I bought this charm bracelet to wear as an accessory when I go places. That's also. like pretty standard, but okay, I would hope so. Anyway, continue. Like, I don't think this review is AI, but it's one of those where you're like, did a fucking alien or robot write this? Right. Like, is this like AI 1.0 that wrote this, you know? So I bought this charm bracelet to wear as an accessory when I go places. And as I got it, God spoke to me and told me to take out the star-shaped one. And I did. And I started taking a few of them off and threw it all together in the garbage. Be careful of what you buy. End of review.
Starting point is 00:14:37 You just threw every important religious symbol in the trash. That can't be good for you. I don't even know. I don't think it was like, it wasn't, it's not a star of David for the record. Imagine. Because you just said religious stars. I'm like, I want to be clear. No, I said symbols.
Starting point is 00:14:52 You threw a bunch of religious symbols in this. But yeah. On the right side. Oh, that's the Wiccan. Mm-hmm. Is it like a pentacle? Is that what it is? Like a five.
Starting point is 00:15:01 Pentagram? Pentagram. What's a pentacle? Pentecostal. Five of pentacles? What's a Pentecostal? You don't, you don't want to. to know. That's for next... Oh, it is, actually. Yeah. I was like, we're doing reviews of Pentecostals.
Starting point is 00:15:13 Probably. I don't know. I actually don't know what that means. Yeah, so that's like a, yeah, it is like a pentagram, but I believe that in that circle thing. It's like a weak and sim. I mean, I don't know. But that's my guess. Anyway, so... And God does not want anything to do with them. And then they threw the rest away because they're like, if I guess it's a whole thing, it makes the whole thing evil. Do you think it's just like their brain is talking to them and they're like, oh, it's God? Like, I don't understand like God spoke to me. I have no fucking idea because back in the day I'd be like, I'd pray and be like, God, I don't know if you exist, but if you do exist, I assume you'd think I'm an okay person. I literally would just have this conversation in my head. So I can't
Starting point is 00:15:50 imagine how it goes for other people because I think mine was a little deranged. When I was younger, they called me the windmill. That's actually true. We did. The way I slept and I was pulling my sheets up. Guess what? I still do it. Yes. At least I did. Guess what? Bolin Branch, have you heard of it? It's so good. Those sheets go through it a lot. The windmill has met its match. I really have.
Starting point is 00:16:21 Yeah, if you have sheets that are like either pilling or coming up at the edges, you know that like crazy making feeling when the elastic's going. It is time. That's a sign. It's time for you to upgrade your sheets. And we think Bolin Bridge is one of the best options out there. Let me just say you'll feel like Don Quixote with those sheets. The way that those windmills meet their match.
Starting point is 00:16:39 Okay. That was so dumb. Thanks. My favorite part is that they're buttery soft from the start, but they get softer as you wash them over time. So it's like an investment. And then over time, your sheets get even softer and cozier, no matter how windmill, how much you windmill in them.

Starting point is 00:17:19 We're all talking about it. Why are we laughing? It has versatile silhouettes. That's what they say. Why are we laughing? And thoughtful details. Oh, right. That is what they say.
Starting point is 00:17:28 And also, I feel like they say timeless, classic words like that, kind of buzzwords. Yeah. And I'll let you in on a little secret. It's not just my personal style. It's quince. No way. It is. I knew it.
Starting point is 00:17:39 People are always like, hey, is that Quince? And I'm like, you could tell by how timeless it is, huh? You know, it is a good choice. And I feel like when you're wearing it, it doesn't feel like, oh, it feels like, oh, no, me, this, this is all me. Yeah, which is most days for me because I have a staple of like each quince thing, shirts, jackets, jeans, pants. Everything I think I haven't checked their shoes out. We have them. We both have corduroys.
Starting point is 00:18:04 Oh, that jacket I have? Yeah, the cord jackets. Nice, too. Yeah. Oh, it's good stuff.

Starting point is 00:18:46 Oh, sorry. Oh, sorry. You're right. The pendant and this one's the ring version. Yeah, one was a pentacle. My mistake. One was a pendant and one was now a mother and child ring. Okay.
Starting point is 00:18:57 By the way, just... That's what Blaze proposed with. A mother and child. He's like, he's like, I can't wait for you to be a mother when you proposed. No, he was like, wait, shit. I thought that was Grover. Famously, by the way, my favorite assessment street character. So, you know, he's like, he was.
Starting point is 00:19:12 You're not that far off. That's funny. Okay, so this is... You went like cradling Grover. It's supposed to be you and Grover. I love it. So beautiful. This is the ring.
Starting point is 00:19:24 Here, you want to see it? It's beautiful. Christina, you think I haven't seen that? Okay. Please. Yeah, I'm wearing it right now. I just, every time I see it, I can't help. It's fair.
Starting point is 00:19:35 Okay, the title, you know, Blaze, so flashy. You know, he went out QVC. Okay, the title of this review... is Blessed Mother and Jesus. And then the username is Stupid Nicknames One. So I think they were mad that they had to write a nickname. I have to make a nickname. And they probably already did and then didn't know how to log back in.
Starting point is 00:19:53 So stupid nicknames was taken by them. And so they had to add that one is my guess. That makes sense. Five-star review, a redemption of this ring. I was so disappointed to see John Walsh downplay the fact that this is the Blessed Mother and Jesus. Now. Is that an indifferent reviewer? John Walsh?
Starting point is 00:20:10 Is that the guy from America's most one? I was like, that was my first stop, but I was like, there's no way. Like, that makes no sense, right? He was a guest. Oh, on that QVC episode. He was a guest on QVC. John Walsh, I guess, was tasked for some Godforsaken reason. This man hosts like one of the most, like, if a show were to make you not believe in God,
Starting point is 00:20:29 I feel that maybe America's Most Wanted, hosted by a person whose child was abducted. Yeah. Like, maybe not necessarily the best fit to whatever. I don't know much about John Walsh, but. I agree. I mean, I presume he's Christian. I would like to think. Like if I were on QVC and they brought this shit out, I'd be like, why?
Starting point is 00:20:46 This is live. Are you kidding me? Yeah. And I'd be like, well, whatever, I'm not going to be on QVC. Why don't I even like making this weird situation out? Hey, every day, I tell you, someday it'll happen. Valerie won't respond to my emails. Okay.
Starting point is 00:20:59 It's been 10 years. Even before this podcast, I've been emailing her. She's probably wearing an evil. A diamondique silver. Oh, no, no wonder I'm being boarded. Bless and Mother. Yeah, back on track. Here we go.
Starting point is 00:21:12 Stupid. names one. I was so disappointed to see John Walsh downplay the fact that this is the blessed mother and Jesus and instead push it as a mother and child ring. They have crowds. It was a gift to his mother for First Communion. So sad what has happened to Ireland. Make no money. Holy fuck. Excuse me? His person is ill. That was so out of nowhere. Holy fuck. It was a gift to his mother for first communion. Union. So sad what has happened entirely. I can't get over that. Make no mistake, this is the
Starting point is 00:21:50 Blessed Mother and Jesus. Now Walsh is downplaying his religion to sell this religious piece to the non-Christian market. QVC has tamped it down too. I remember years ago when hosts spoke openly about their faith, not anymore. End of review. So what, man, it's crazy. 16 people found that helpful and Ford did not. I mean, I'm not that surprised, but like still, yikes. That's That's crazy. Wow. That can't be a mother child. It's got to be my Savior's mother.
Starting point is 00:22:21 Jesus is not a child, you know? Like right now? I don't know. It's just like it's like it's not a mother. I mean, it literally. Were there crowns? Is that how you describe whatever the fuck they look like? Oh, I guess she does look like Mary.
Starting point is 00:22:34 She's like obviously Mother Mary, but like. Whatever. Who cares? Like then those non-Christians probably aren't going to buy it because they think that way. And it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. It's about the principle of the thing.
Starting point is 00:22:44 Oh, and then what the fuck was with the Ireland shit? I don't know. Is he Irish? I have no. Like, I'm curious. What the, Did they talk about the troubles? I mean.
Starting point is 00:22:54 Like on air on QVC live? I hope not. I mean, man, I read a book. I mean, his last name is Walsh. Wouldn't that imply he's Welsh? But maybe I'm wrong. You know what?
Starting point is 00:23:07 Hey, that sounds right. That sounds right to me. I'm not going to question that. But no, I read a book, The Milkman. and it takes place in Northern Ireland during the troubles.
Starting point is 00:23:17 Honestly, it was one of those things where I'm like, fuck, I know very little about this. I mean, you know more than I do now. Yeah,
Starting point is 00:23:22 no, I think so, but only because we didn't really learn about it. Yeah, he's Irish, so that she's saying, it's such a shame. His mother knew what good Irish. Oh,
Starting point is 00:23:31 yikes. That's wild. Anyway, yeah, I don't think this person should be weighing in. I don't think I should be weighing in on the troubles, believe it or not.
Starting point is 00:23:38 You don't think stupid nicknames one should be weighing. And what the fucking Brit's and the fucking famine? Oh, my gosh. With more you learn, the worse it is. And meanwhile, I grew up being like, Irish car bombs. Now I'm like, oh. Yeah, he was taking Irish car bombs every day at school at the lunch table, just like downing him. It's like, I remember when QVC did Irish car bombs when they talked about their fate.
Starting point is 00:24:00 And now they're too afraid for a canceled culture. Anyway, it's shitty. Anyway, I have another one from Stacey. This is of a jeweler, S-E-I-T-A, Jewelers in Pittsburgh. Okay. And it's a one-star review. called to get a price on a gold coin. They said they couldn't get prices for gold over the phone.
Starting point is 00:24:21 I told them it was a coin. They said to come in anyways, just to tell me that they don't buy coins. Oh, no. And I will say, the jeweler responds, like, I'm so sorry, we must have given you the wrong information. Truly apologize for wasting your time. I'm sure, like, I know how valuable, whatever.
Starting point is 00:24:41 So they felt really bad. So it was funny because I was like, oh shit, that actually happened. Because there's so many weird reviews like that where it's like, what? You never called our store. Yeah, they're like, who the fuck are you? Or you showed up at our store with 800 de Blooms. Yeah. Instead, these people were like, you know what?
Starting point is 00:24:58 Sounds like us. Don't worry. We fired Diane for that. Yes. Don't worry. Oh, we know who did that. She's famous for this. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:05 Famous for telling people we buy coins. She meant to say we take cash and change. Oh. And we do accept payment in gold de blooms. Yeah, that's true too. Yeah, we do accept gold dollar coins. And then these dollars. No, that's not how you say it.
Starting point is 00:25:22 How you say her name? Saka Jua. Okay. Here's a review also sent in by Taylor. Basically, all my reviews are from Taylor. It is a steel by design, Swarovsky Crystal Charm bracelet. And it has this just gorgeous. Oh.
Starting point is 00:25:36 Okay. That is awful. It looks like teeth. Yeah, it's real ugly. Those are pearls. The pearls are. But they're like different shapes and kind of. Kind of them are like oblong.
Starting point is 00:25:45 Yeah, they're freshwater pearls. Okay. Oh, Jesus. No, thank you. And then there's a beautiful cross on the charm. Okay. Love Fashion Always says title, fake cultured freshwater pearls. This is a one-star view.
Starting point is 00:26:00 Do not buy this product, fake cultured freshwater pearls. On June 29, 2021, I have already alerted QVC customer service representative. Wee-o, weeo. By the name of Bert. Grover? Wait a minute. I have already alerted KVC customer service representative by the name of Burt that QVC should recall this item sold to customers and refund all customers.
Starting point is 00:26:28 It is because fake products are not supposed to be sold to any customers. Steel by design and QVC should really have a quality assurance department to check their jewelry before they are being sold to customers to avoid fake products. Steel by design should not deal with that provider anymore who provided this fake product. I've noticed some of the freshwater pearls are little rocks. And some of them are plastic. Both those have quotations. So like little rocks?
Starting point is 00:26:54 Plastic. Sorry, I glanced over there and I see this Yelp review is in all calves, the entire thing. Like I can't help but notice. It's really like jarring for the eyes. Yeah. It says, I've noticed some of the freshwater pearls are little rocks and some of them are plastic and they are painted over with some sort of lacquer that looks like white-cultured freshwater pearls. Oh, shit.
Starting point is 00:27:12 Like there's lacquer on it. Apparently, it's like a painted thing where you know you scratched on your teeth. Yeah. You see if it's fake. She just has little rocks in her mouth. Swishing them around. She put the whole bracelet. That's not fresh water.
Starting point is 00:27:28 It tastes a little too salty for that. Good point. Yeah. High sodium content in this bracelet. But it does remind me. I feel like we've talked about these. It does remind me of those Facebook lives that I would see all the time. And these people were like.
Starting point is 00:27:38 Have you heard about this? You guys would be like selling these pearls. and they open the oyster. It would shuck the oyster. And what happens is they had already put in these like colorful pearls. And you're like, oh, what are you going to get? The rare ones are worth more. Like the black pearl.
Starting point is 00:27:52 It would be like hosted by people who hosted also Lula Rowe selling parties. Like this was always a very like MLM. Yes. Like I think it was because then you sell jewelry. Absolutely. You can sell those. You were pressured into buying that pearl in like a setting of jewelry. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:08 It was wild. And they pulled out a hot pink pearl and like you. got the double edge gilded whatever. You triple platinum. And it's like that is a little rock. Coded in a lacquer. It's like kind of like scratches that gambling itch. I'd be like put that on your teeth real quick.
Starting point is 00:28:23 So it's a little dangerous. Bite on that real quick, lady. Prove it. I have one more. And this is one that believe it or not I found. So it might suck. This is a one star review of New York Jewelers in Chicago. Okay.
Starting point is 00:28:37 I know. One star. I went to New York Jewelers. twice with my fiance. I kept getting lost because I kept going to New York City. Yeah, I was hundreds of miles away. I went to New York Jewelers twice with my fiancé, once to shop for engagement rings, and again to shop for wedding bands.
Starting point is 00:28:54 They had a large selection. On both occasions, the salesmen we dealt with were extremely sexist towards my fiancé. They make comments like, you know women, they're just like young kids. They love the shiny stuff. This was in 2021 or 2019, I think. Like, are you kidding me? Not that it would have been normal 10, 20 years ago, but like, huh? It's not great.
Starting point is 00:29:20 Huh? It's not great. It's not like, oh, God, okay. This is one example of many. We thought the first time must have been a fluke, so we gave them a second chance, which they failed. Extremely disappointing end of review. I could have told you.
Starting point is 00:29:34 I wish I knew what the second thing is. Yeah, I know. That's what I was hoping for as I was reading it. I was like they got to have more examples and they didn't, but I did like that one. I mean, I could probably, I use that sometimes. You do what sometimes? I use that one. Which one?
Starting point is 00:29:47 Oh, you know women. Oh, that line. You know women. I mean, my wife is like that. True. Like, I bought her a whole set of pearls and she was like, there's not enough lacquer on it. She kept shooing on them. Well, yeah, because she's like a kid.
Starting point is 00:29:58 Oh, right. She was, she's teething. It sounds like a bad horror movie. Yeah, called gums. I actually wanted to stop talking about it. Okay. This was also, wouldn't you know it from Taylor? That's Taylor person.
Starting point is 00:30:11 I don't know. QVC review. This Taylor person, I might have a beef with you. I mean, I have a beef probably with lots of Taylor. Is that right in? That's true. But a new one. Yeah, this is a QVC necklace called My Saint, My Hero, Lord's Prayer Medallion Necklace.
Starting point is 00:30:28 See, QVC is one thing. But it's QVC plus the explicitly religious stuff. I get why, though. I know. I'm pushing it a little. No, no, no. But there's a reason you're saying because those reviews are usually bat shit. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:30:41 Well, this one's not. So this is a five-star review by Trooper 503. And then it's a verified purchase, five-star's redemption. Well, it's Christmas Eve. What was a BG song? I was standing in my kitchen. I had my pendant on. I believe that the sunlight shined on my pendant.
Starting point is 00:31:08 What I saw next was amazing. Mm-hmm. Seniors won't believe this trick. Doctors don't want you to know. Priests, I want you to know. A lot of stuff, including this. What I saw next was amazing. A star appeared the wall.
Starting point is 00:31:29 I was able to capture it with my phone. I hope I can include the picture with my review. Was it like Pokemon Go? That's how they captured it on their phone. They're like, come on. What I saw next was amazing. A star appeared the wall. I was able to capture it with my phone.
Starting point is 00:31:44 I hope I can include the picture with my review. It was definitely from the Lord. Praise his holy name. I'm going to guess they didn't have a picture. Of course not. Yeah. Someone like that I don't think can figure it out. No.
Starting point is 00:31:55 If they called it, I captured it with my phone. No offense, but I don't think that's a normal way of saying that. I guess it is. Like, I captured it on camera. That's different. To me, like, you don't see that with the phone. But maybe you do, but I don't. So it's wrong.
Starting point is 00:32:08 Believe, I forgot to tell you the title. The title is, you have to read this. Which, again, gives like, click-bay energy. You have to see what's next. Yeah, no, no wonder. And then we can't. And then there's no picture. Like, you have to read this, but you can't see it.
Starting point is 00:32:22 Fake news. I don't believe it, yeah. At least AI generate a star on the wall. So you're saying, like, a reflection happened against something that's reflective is basically what they're saying? Yep. Cool. Just making sure that's what they're saying. It bothers me.
Starting point is 00:32:34 Well, it was from the Lord. It's no. If it was from the Lord, that would be a song. makes it special, though. I mean, yeah, it would be. I agree. It might be from a higher power. I'm not saying it's not. But it's also from the sun. Sometimes ideas or businesses come along and I go, oh my gosh, that should have existed a lot sooner. One of those is tachiatry. If you've been stuck on a wait list like Zandi and I have for a psychiatrist or have moved or just don't know where to find when to begin with, tachiatry is here. They were built for you. It's a virtual psychiatry that
Starting point is 00:33:12 actually fits your life and your insurance. Yeah, I think a lot of people know that when you're in need of a psychiatrist and that's something that would help you, that's sometimes when it's the hardest to actually get one. That's so true. That's so true. From experience, that is very much the case. And that's why I'm so glad something like talk psychiatry exists because the ability to find a psychiatrist with a lot less hassle and conveniently is important.
Starting point is 00:33:36 Big deal. All their 600 plus clinicians are in network with major insurers too, so you can use your existing insurance instead of paying like those crazy out-of-network fees. It's just a really awesome service. And we're proud to be sponsored by them. Yeah. So head to tachiatry.com slash beach and complete the short assessment to get matched with an in-network psychiatrist in just a few minutes. That's tachiatry.com slash beach to get matched in minutes. A quick message from today's sponsor, the ASPCA pet health insurance program. Man, of course our pets, I think we all feel the same. Pet is part of the family. You'd do pretty
Starting point is 00:34:11 much anything for them. And then the vet bill comes and you're like, this is higher than my own. Like, I'm not doing this for them. No. Yeah, too far. No, but we would. Like, we'd all do it. And that's why it's worth checking out ASPCA pet health insurance. Pet insurance can help manage those vet bills so you can focus on what really matters, which is making sure your pet gets the care they need when they need it. And there's even a perk for enrolling.

Starting point is 00:35:13 So my challenge today was to find a. reviews in which the reviewer confesses a crush. And this is one that I had very much fun with. Good. Yeah. It's like me and my Barnes and Noble love of my life who I never met after all these years. God. I mean, really it reminded me of you. Actually, and me, it feels very millennial. I think like the meat cute thing is a very millennial. Okay. Yeah. Construct where like, oh, you watch like that days of summer. What is that summer? 500 days of summer. Like those kind of like rom-comy, but like indie movies were so It's like a toxic guy and a toxic...
Starting point is 00:35:47 For sure. And you have like matching tattoo or whatever. Yeah. A toxic relationship. And then they somehow end up together or something. And you're like, oh, yay. But then when you're older, you're like, oh. Or you're like, I have a crush on the cashier at Coles.
Starting point is 00:36:01 And... Yeah. We're Barnes & Noble with nine stories by J.D. Salinger tattoo, Seymour Glass. So if you're out there and you worked at Barnes & Noble in the early 2010s. About once a year, we do this little kind of pitch for anyone out there who might know this person. It's sort of like a, you know, Zanis have that show, human-seeking human. It's sort of like Zandi seeking. Why do you think I made that? Oh, okay. That's like a big long con. Yeah. Okay. Sure. How's that going for you, by the way?
Starting point is 00:36:28 That bitch won't come. I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. Where am I? I don't know her. Okay. This is. You know her soul, though. I feel it. This is a five-star review of a hotel called the Stamba Hotel. And the... Oh, this isn't Stomba, Tennessee, right? Where is this? Oh, I don't know. I'm like, what the fucking Stomba.
Starting point is 00:36:49 I'm so sorry, I have no idea what that is. But the guest relations manager's name is Alexandra Kibishari. So I don't know. And then this person reviewing is from the country of Georgia. So I'm not sure where it is. Got it. And I hate to make fun, but the title says,
Starting point is 00:37:06 does it worth it for the hotel? It made me laugh. I was like, does it indeed. Let's find out. I mean, it's a five-star review, right? Exactly. When you book this hotel, you got to know it's not standard five-star hotel. It made me feel like I was at American Horror Story.
Starting point is 00:37:20 Oh, what? I know. I was like, whoa, does it worth it? Which season? That is very important, though. After all these years, like Roanoke, that's very different from like, Coven, which is, okay, I guess it probably is a hotel. But you never know.
Starting point is 00:37:34 They didn't specify. It could have been the, the cardinal one. Oh, whatever that one was, that one. I think I didn't like it because it freaked me out. But I think nothing beat the first season. I never watched it. You should watch the first season. I thought it was pretty good.
Starting point is 00:37:46 When you book this hotel, you've got to know it's not standard five stars hotel. It made me feel like I was at American Horror Story. Halls are so dark if you want to see your imperfections in your bathroom mirror. You can't. I mean, it feels like a wind to make up. I will say usually hotels are the complete opposite. They have those really intense mirrors, like really intense lighting. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:05 And yeah, sometimes they have those like Zoom ones that. I'm like, uh-uh. And then I look because I'm tempted to. Of course. And then you dissociate from your body and you're like, who is that in the mirror? Someone in our, I said no gifts, like clip, I think or a picture. Someone said like, look at these three with beautiful skin or something. And I'm like, don't zoom.
Starting point is 00:38:22 Me? No, but like it's like that person said, as long as you don't have a fucking zoom lens, PI with a zoom lens. Telephoto. You can't see all my pores. Okay. The halls are so dark. If you want to see your imperfections, you can't.
Starting point is 00:38:34 Bathroom is so dark. No privacy in the bathroom. Writing all about this. and wondering why do I give it five stars? Because place is so unique. You can't find similar places elsewhere. That is not a selling point. If you're telling me this is like American Horror Story, it's so dark.
Starting point is 00:38:49 You can't see. It's no privacy. And it's like nothing you've ever seen before. What does that mean? What does that mean? I don't know. Doesn't sound good. But yeah, I could see the uniqueness be, oh, a boutique hotel.
Starting point is 00:39:00 Sure. Which I'm not usually a fan of because they try, they're very corporate boot. Like, those are all like, they put some, like, cringy stuff. They put like, giant. on a bunch of animals or something. And like fake graffiti. And they're like, clocks are our thing. And we're like, why, though? Because time is eternal. Right, right, right, right. At Marriott. I'm like, where am I staying? I'm like, I don't think I've stayed anywhere like that. But anyway, it's not like a boutique hotel. It's an American Horror
Starting point is 00:39:23 Store hotel, which I weirdly would prefer. Depending on the bathroom situation. I got to like know specifically what that means. You can't find similar places elsewhere. In the restaurant, 10 out of 10. The best restaurant I've been to, always my fave. I think the restaurant is the part of this place. Yeah. Yeah. It's the only good thing you've said so far. And no offense.
Starting point is 00:39:44 I've never been to Georgia. I would love to. But I assume they don't have any like crazy like Michelin's. Not that I've been to any. But I'm like, this is the best restaurant I've ever been to. Right. I'm curious where this place is. You've really lost me.
Starting point is 00:39:57 Because maybe I just, I don't know why I'm insulting the country of Georgia. Probably because we don't have listeners there. Because this is a ridiculous review out center. That's why. I kind of always wanted to go to Tbilisi, though, because of community. I was just hearing about Tbilisi yesterday. Were you watching community? No, I don't recall.
Starting point is 00:40:15 I don't know much about it. I've seen travel videos that go there. I haven't. The best restaurant I've been to, always my fave. I think restaurant is the best part of this place. I have a crush on one of the waitresses, and I'm so shy to do anything about it. I'm burning from the inside. End of review.
Starting point is 00:40:34 Oh, wow, that was saucy at the end. trip type traveled as a couple. I just saw that. Oh, my gosh. I just saw that. Do you think they were talking about an actual partner or this person at the hotel? I know. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:40:47 They're like, oh. They're like just daydreaming. Arrived single. Mm-hmm. Left as a couple. Yeah. Remember when you were like, oh, yeah, this person said that this was their favorite restaurant ever.
Starting point is 00:40:56 Yeah, no wonder. I know. In my head, I was like, come on. It's so biased. That's why I said, do you expect me to believe any of this? You just have love eyes right now. I mean, to be fair, that sounds like something I would do. Oh, yeah?
Starting point is 00:41:07 I'd be like, oh, yeah, I have a crush on the barista. That means this is the best coffee shop in the world. But that's why I know not to trust this person or you or myself in that state. To be fair, yeah. I wouldn't tell people it's the best because then I'd have to admit why. Exactly. She doesn't seem to mind. Okay.
Starting point is 00:41:21 Okay. Please leave us alone. You're not a couple. Stop calling. Dear Kay, we are thankful for your comprehensive review. That is hilarious. I don't know. That feels like a read that is so subtle, I think, that I feel like I wouldn't necessarily know if that were directed at me.
Starting point is 00:41:45 We are thankful for your comprehensive review. It is great to know that you enjoyed the relaxing and unique stamba hotel experience. We are thrilled that you found our hotel unique and appreciated the restaurant ambiance. Comments like yours are always warming our hearts. We are looking forward to hosting you once again for another magical experience. End of review. It was nice. I'm going to look up the Stomba Hotel.
Starting point is 00:42:06 Yeah, because I'm curious where this is. I feel like the waiter, the waitress was like, don't mention me. Don't even address that part. It isn't Tbilisi. That's funny. I mean, I guess it makes sense because she's from Georgia. Yeah, but okay, so like travel to Georgia. That makes sense.
Starting point is 00:42:21 Or to Blesi. Interesting. Okay, cool. In my head, I was like, where the fuck is this? Like, if it's in a capital city. I'd be curious because I don't know anything about like Georgian food. I want to see how dark it is. Generally, I don't know much about Eastern European food.
Starting point is 00:42:36 Whoa. It is dark. It looks. Whoa. It makes me dizzy. I know. Go to the restaurant. Story view what? That's what I, that's what I'm saying. That's what their website says. Story view what? I mean, these rooms look lovely and bright. Yeah, the English makes no sense. Room by long. I'm like, I think it would be better without it. Vintage aeronautics. That's cool. Brutalist influences. Oh my God. Yeah. When they said unique, I get it now. This does feel American horror story, but not in like a gross way in like a really fucking weird creepy way, but not like a haunted way. Yeah, yeah, agreed. You know, anyway, I would travel like as a vibe. I imagine it's it looks affordable for us. Oh, look at all this. Even though it looks so, like it looks like a nice hotel.
Starting point is 00:43:25 Oh, the restaurant's called Lolita. Ew. That's troubling. You sounded really excited by that. Let's get some listeners there so we have a reason to tour. Okay, cool. We won't stay at that hotel. I just shit all over your one person that has come to review something on the podcast. Hey, we can't shit all over. We shit all over each other more than anything. Whoa. Use that phrase. Okay.
Starting point is 00:43:50 So this is also from Abby. She heard, Philadelphia City Hall, five-star review. And this is by Elena Ross. And, oh, I'm sorry, Elena Ross 1776 is the username. And the title of the review is, my crush on City Hall Confession. That's hilarious. So this person's like, I think they're pitching for that. TLC show.
Starting point is 00:44:09 Pitchin for something. Five stars. Do not even get me started on how much I love this place. Too late. Whenever I am even remotely near the building, I hear angels singing, and it is almost as if I have entered
Starting point is 00:44:24 the gates of heaven. Actually, City Hall might be better than heaven. No offense, God. I love it here. It is a part of the person I am, and I am just obsessed. Dare I even say in love with this building. It awakens something inside of me,
Starting point is 00:44:35 a fire within my heart that brings tears to my eyes every single time I get to stare into the yellow clock at the dark hours of the night. Oh. I want to live here. I want to raise a family here. In the city hall?
Starting point is 00:44:46 I want to be city hall. It's like, okay. It says that? Yeah. The hell? I want to raise a family here. I want to be city hall. I want to learn more about this person.
Starting point is 00:44:55 I don't. She is glorious and everything. We'll tune into season 78 of... Of I'm in love with City Hall. I'm in love with... I'm in love with an inanimate object. She is glorious in everything I've ever wanted and more. One time.
Starting point is 00:45:07 I swear William Penn winked at me. I think he was trying to flirt with me. If he continued, I would have tried to climb to the top and kiss him. Jesus. Maybe do a little more than kiss. I don't know. This person's amazing. Maybe do a little more than a kiss.
Starting point is 00:45:25 I don't know. Highly recommend, this building will never get old. I love you, City Hall. You are the best thing that has ever happened to me. End of review. It will never get old because it already is old. It's so fucking old. And then there's a picture of the yellow clock.
Starting point is 00:45:36 Oh, good. Oh, my God. Why is it naked? It's just a weird one. Yeah. This is a review that I found of a place called Catalyst in San Bernardino. Oh, it is either a weed shop or, yeah, I think it's a wheat shop. What, a cocaine shop? I didn't know if it was like a vapid smoke shop or like an actual dispensary or something, but I think it is a dispensary.
Starting point is 00:45:58 Amazing selection. Came for a jetty and left with that and some cold fire. Very clean facility, efficient front desk, thorough and clear. The prices are pretty great. compared to some others. They had a 15% off the whole store today. I may have a slight crush on the girl that helped me today. Sorry.
Starting point is 00:46:15 But I will probably return here for the amazing prices selection and the pretty girl who helped me. Smitten at the smoke shop. Seriously. If you're looking for the newest and wildest selection, well, there's a reason there's so many locations. This place is doing it right. End of review. Oh my gosh. It's like...
Starting point is 00:46:33 I feel like a dispensary is a place where I would be most likely to form a crush on someone who was helping me. Like, it feels like very like... That just happened to me in LA. Really? The one that I took you to. Was I just there? I was there first.
Starting point is 00:46:45 When we filmed, when we did no, I said no gifts. Okay. Or FYA. Oh, oh, you mean you went to the dispensary first? Yeah. And I went to the dispensary and I was like, oh my gosh. I think it was, I mean, like, I found this person attractive, but I also like, they're so helpful and kind.
Starting point is 00:47:01 I know. There's something about like that kind of exchange. Oh, acts of service? Acts of service. No, and I was like, oh. So cute. Oh, paying for my, paying for affection. Yeah, but I wouldn't like leave a review and mention that because that feels like you're trying to get.
Starting point is 00:47:14 I know, I know. Like either say it in the moment kindly, like, don't bother anyone, but don't like write about it later and be like, sorry. That's so bad. Sorry, I'll be back. That sounds like something I would do back in the day. I used to have a music blog that like I wrote stuff on. That's how blogs work I hear. And I did an, it was like Hime, their first album.
Starting point is 00:47:35 And I wrote a review or something about it. It wasn't really a review, but at the end, and I, like, took it off pretty soon. But I remember being like, it helps that I have, like, a crush or on Alana, I think. Like, I forget which one. I forget all their names. But anyway, I said that. And I was like, soon after, I was like, oh, my God, I can't believe I said that. I was like, I'm objectifying this person and all this stuff.
Starting point is 00:47:57 And I was like, I can't. I took the whole thing down. And by whole thing, I mean, the whole website. The blog. Not just because of that. Stop existing. Anyway, that's still something, like, one of those intrusive thoughts that's like, remember when you did that.
Starting point is 00:48:08 Oh, yeah. And it's so silly. I was like 21, like, whatever. Anyway. Well, after she got the restraining order, it was hard to, like, feel. Why do you think I regret it? Because otherwise, I would have had a chance. You were so close to actually walking down the aisle, too, when she discovered.
Starting point is 00:48:21 When I went, when I followed her at the grocery store? Yeah. The aisle of the groceries. The Isle of Airwan. The Aeroon grocery. I recently moved. And I had been in a, I'm not going to say where it came from, but this. this mattress, this mattress.
Starting point is 00:48:44 It's a dark dime, dark time. I've had it for so long, and it's one of those things that I feel like I should have upgraded a long time ago. It's hard. It's a big choice, right? And then, like, you start researching. It's really overwhelming. But then Lisa came along, and you thought, okay, let me try this out. And yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:59 And it's one of those things, buy it for life. And honestly, for a Lisa mattress, I'm going to use this thing forever. Didn't you get, like, a really, like you did the little quiz or the match your. Oh, yeah. They match me with the best mattress. Oh, man. I'm a questioner. I highly recommend.
Starting point is 00:49:15 Like the night of the realm. Just like the night of the realm. I have no idea what that is. But if you do, it's probably a good thing, right? What do I know? It feels like the fanciest mattress. Oh, the mattresses from the night realm are really fancy. That's true.
Starting point is 00:49:35 Yeah, I think so. Another great thing is that Lisa mattresses are meticulously designed and assembled in the USA for exceptional quality. Plus, they back it all up with free shipping, easy returns, and a 120-night sleep trial. They're not going to want to return it, though, right? No. No, of course not.

Oh, true. Wants to have plant-based. That's true.

Starting point is 00:51:45 Super happy with the chow mane and fried rice as well as shrimp fried rice, honeywing, sweet tea. Customer service was great, super friendly. And I maybe have a crush on the girl behind the counter. If you're reading this, my Instagram by Isaac Ortiz. XX, the pretty girl, didn't sway my review though. Good food. Okay.
Starting point is 00:52:02 At least supposedly, she didn't. Did you say the real Instagram handle? No, I'd change a few others. I was like, Christine, I don't know if that's a good. idea. No, I changed it. A few letters, people are just going to like, yes.
Starting point is 00:52:15 No, you're not figured out. I'm just kidding. It has a lot of Zs and X's and underscores. Don't worry about it. Oh, it's too much. Okay. Yeah. That's, I like that ending bit.
Starting point is 00:52:24 But I'm not biased. They shot their shot. Look, they were shooting their shot while also saying, hey, it doesn't affect the review, which I don't believe. And while on their middle school trip to Jacksonville. And hey, at least it's like opening it up without and being like, like no expectations, hopefully. So you approve.
Starting point is 00:52:40 I mean, I would never do this, but I have left my phone number for someone serving me at a restaurant one time. And it was because my friends told me to at Skyline and Clifton. Oh, yeah. They were like, oh, she likes you. I know she doesn't. They're like, just leave your number on the receipt. I was like, no.
Starting point is 00:52:56 And they were like, do it. You left how many? Other people's numbers. Like as a prank? Yeah. Is that why I keep getting the calls from really ugly people? No, I did that one time. And then it didn't end up being funny at all.
Starting point is 00:53:10 And then one time my friend had a crush on somebody there. And I was like, just let me write a note while you're in the back. Like on their behalf, I wrote the note. That's cute. Okay. It didn't work. Okay. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:53:20 But look, if it doesn't work and you're awful about it, that's not good. But if it doesn't work and you're like, okay, move on. Oh, my friend did burn the building. I'm kidding. That was understandable. Right. Because your friend was really into that person. And it was only fair.
Starting point is 00:53:35 Yeah. This is a review of Bob Ches Parogi in Buffalo, New York. I love a parogi. Foxy. The plural of parogi's parogi, because I think someone called us out for that and was really upset. They seemed passionate. Here's what I'll say.
Starting point is 00:53:53 Fox calls it parogis, so I don't care. Oh, okay. So, never mind. So on this podcast, Fox is King. Fox is everything. So Parogis it is? Paraguis it is. There's a five-star review of Bob Chas Parogi in Buffalo, New York.
Starting point is 00:54:08 Bobcha, Bobcha, where did our love go? You don't make me parochies. You don't make them no more. That was by Diana Ross and the supremely good parogis. He's so annoying in my favorite way. Wow. They have an amazing selection of innovative parogi. Okay, there it is.
Starting point is 00:54:30 They have an amazing selection of innovative pierogi, and the original kinder actually really good. It's just about a five-star rating, especially considering how lovely and enthusiastic and genuine the people making this stuff were. The prices are okay and everything I tried was really good. If you like Brogis, you will like this a lot more than the ridiculous stuff served at places like Betty Kroxky truck or whatever. At least you should, but there's no accounting for taste. Also, I have a crush on the girl working here, but don't tell her.
Starting point is 00:54:58 Oh, wait, I just wrote it on Yelp. Never mind. Damn. Okay, how do I edit this review? Anyone? No one? Nobody? No? Okay. End of review. 17 people found this helpful. Okay, look. And 17 people, like, love this.
Starting point is 00:55:13 Hey, I love Fox and I love a good bit. I'm fine with this one. I guess I'll allow it. And maybe that's how he met. Barbie? Oh, I was going to say that. I was like, this might be the origin story. Right?
Starting point is 00:55:25 So, like, maybe it is someone he ended up. I don't know. That could be. In another review, he's like, who's this, Bimbo? Hell yeah. Bimbo and Himbo. I know. I think maybe that was the beginning of a talk about a meat cute.
Starting point is 00:55:36 I mean. Fox would know. Emphasis on the cute and emphasis on the meat. That's right. Both of them. And the feet. He is a feet guy. There is an unfortunate emphasis on the feet.
Starting point is 00:55:46 I say that not to judge, but to say, not for me. Oh my God. O.P. and I, we were watching second season of, this isn't a spoiler of that show we were just talking about. Annie Murphy. Yeah, with Annie Murphy, Kevin can fuck himself.
Starting point is 00:56:01 What about Bob? Yeah, Kevin can fuck himself. What about Bob? Why could we not come home with that? Kevin can fuck himself. And a character was like, oh, like, that's my pretty toe. And I was like, I audibly, I think we both were like audibly like, ugh. And it's like, why did I have such a visceral reaction?
Starting point is 00:56:19 But I don't know. That I don't know. Anyway, so random. But yeah, Fox, enjoy your toes. And y'all, you can watch this on YouTube. I think it's fun and silly. I don't know. I like, we're just chilling on the couch in person.
