This is the Harlan Highway podcast with whipped cream is what this is. Just as delicious, I would argue. Hello, I'm Harlan Williams, your host and moderator. Welcome to the show. We have a lot of ground to cover today.
Starting point is 00:00:23 We're going to be talking about the provocative nature. of modern-day rock videos and songs coming out of the mouths of young singers and pop stars. Is it too much? Are they going over the line in seducing boys and men? We're going to talk about that. Also, the question of the day, we got a good one today that involves your car. That's right, the Harland Highway Question of the Day, involving your car. also a startling story about cats
Starting point is 00:01:02 if you own a cat uh-oh you might not like this story you might want to check your life insurance policy also we're going to be making a call to a party store yes a Harland Highway crank call to a party store and we're also going to revisit the underwear leg phenomenon we have some more calls on that
Starting point is 00:01:24 so pull up your pants this is the Harland Highway Where are I? What is this, some kind of a joke or something? Welcome to the Harland Highway. What you're talking about Williams? Son, you got a panty on your head. Shut up and sit down, you big bald fuck. Oh, God, what's happening here?
Starting point is 00:01:43 What's happening? Hey, Harland, it's Shelby. You just made a wrong turn. On to the Harland Highway. We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other thing. Not because they are easy, but because they are hard. That is fantastic. That's wrong with everybody in this crazy place.
Starting point is 00:02:01 The Harland Highway. What is it? The opening. To what? To another dimension. This is Harland Williams. You're a bad man. You're a very bad man.
Starting point is 00:02:12 That is fantastic. Hello? Hello? Hey. I was just wondering if you ever swung a bean. pickle at a canary park is six ways from Saigon call me back okay well again this is the same caller from the last podcast who left me that same message and asked me this in-depth question
Starting point is 00:02:44 asked me to call them back and didn't leave a callback number and so now I'm faced with the unenviable unenviable the tough task of calling random numbers to see if I can find this guy. So thanks a lot. And let's get on the phone and see if I can track you down so I can answer you. Garncackle. Oh, hey, how you doing? Fine.
Starting point is 00:03:17 Great. I was just calling you back. I got your message. I'm sorry. I just came into work. Who are you wanting to talk to? Oh, I guess someone from there left me a message. so I was just calling back.
Starting point is 00:03:30 I wasn't sure if you left it or somebody else. I didn't. Who was, what was it resolving? I get, it's kind of confusing to me that someone left me a message and asked me if I ever swung a bean pickle on a canary carcass six ways from Saigon, and I'm not, I'm not sure. I don't know what you're talking about, sir. Well, I don't either, and I'm wondering why someone would call me with that and leave that. They would have called you from this.
Starting point is 00:03:55 This is a tackle shop. Well, somebody called me from there, and I'm a little confused by the message, so is there anyone else there? What's your name? What's your name? Tony. Tony, hang on a second. Thanks, awesome. Did y'all call a Tony? This is Lori. Can I help you?
Starting point is 00:04:15 Oh, hey, Lori. I was just calling back. I got your message, so. Message about what? The message said, do you ever swing a bean pickle on a canary carcass? ways from Saigon so that wasn't from us this is a tackle shop well I don't even know what a beam pickle is I don't know I have no idea but we didn't call you well I got them I got a message from somebody well we it wasn't us you got the number wrong well I mean somebody we're outside waiting on customers right now our phones have been sitting on the table I know but somebody wants me to swing this thing six ways from Saigon oh boy
Starting point is 00:04:56 Wow, well, this isn't going to be easy. Boy, she copped an attitude. I didn't leave the message. Somebody called me. I'm just trying to solve this little bean pickle canary carcass. Cygon mystery. I mean, is that a crime? So I'm going to keep going, gang, until we figure this out.
Starting point is 00:05:20 I sure hope I find the person that called me because it's an important message. and they need an answer. So maybe next podcast we'll get there. Geez. Let's just move on, I guess. The Harland Highway. Crazy news story.
Starting point is 00:05:42 That's weird. That's strange stuff. Okay. This next story, and it's something I've suspected all along. Okay. I've thought this was the case. It's day one, right out of the gate. I don't know how many cat lovers we have listening today.
Starting point is 00:06:02 But listen to this. Here's the headline. You ready? Your cat may want to kill you, study says. Uh-huh. I've always thought so. Here's the story, and it's pretty fascinating. People think of cats as cuddly and annoying.
Starting point is 00:06:23 Whoops, sorry, that slipped. But research published in a psychology journal calls them neurotic and unstable. Gee, you think? They spend hours chasing shadows on the wall. They stare out the window like zombies. Researchers from the University of Edinburgh, which is in Scotland, and the Bronx Zoo in New York, compared the personalities of domestic house cats
Starting point is 00:06:54 to those of four different types of wildcats. Yikes! To better understand feline personalities, the researchers rated a number of animals' behaviors on what psychologists called the Big Five human personality traits. Extroversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, conscientiousness. I can't read.
Starting point is 00:07:24 neuroticism and openness so those are some big ones right there so by the way before I continue it I find a little odd that they're doing the study with house cats which are confined to a house and big cats from a zoo that are confined to a cage or a small cubicle I don't know if I think maybe the study should have been done with big cats out in the wild. Because I have a feeling, you know, caged animals might be more prone to adopt the personalities and the habits of a smaller animal that's in a docile environment where it's not dealing with violence and figuring out how to hunt and eat every day and blah, blah, blah.
Starting point is 00:08:16 But nonetheless, here's what they say. Domestic house cats have similar personality structures to African lions. with high inclinations towards dominance, impulsiveness, and neuroticism. This is what the researchers found. They say it's what cats pretty much do on a daily basis. Things like being anxious, being timid, being excitable, being aggressive towards humans, being aggressive towards each other. And all of these characteristics you see in these cute little fuzzy,
Starting point is 00:08:54 house cats you also see them in lions good lord are you listening to this you people with cats holy smokes uh i get to being anxious thing you know house cats are anxious are anxious they never know uh when the next uh weird accident's going to happen being timid being excitable i mean here's the weird one being aggressive towards humans how many of you have a house cat that's aggressive towards you and it's trying to kill you and eat you in your sleep I've seen it in some cats to be honest
Starting point is 00:09:33 but I didn't realize this was a common trait if you ever thought your cat was anxious insecure tense suspicious or aggressive towards you you aren't making it up if they were bigger they would probably consider killing you can we play the psycho music here roger
Starting point is 00:09:54 I mean, this is, now this is getting scary. So the only reason these murderers are living in your house and you're feeding them and brushing them and loving on them, the only reason you're alive is because they only weigh, you know, seven pounds. Watch what you feed your cat, man. If it ever gets bigger, you're dead. Your cat gets, you know, fat enough to hold a gun or a knife. you're out of here man um but the news isn't all bad they said just like lions house cats are also playful
Starting point is 00:10:35 excitable and impulsively hilarious oh yeah i'm laughing my ass while my cat stands over my bed while i sleep and puts a knife in my throat i'm just cracking up all the way to the morgue predictable one moment cats will be enjoying belly scratches and purring and the next They will be biting you to make you stop or bludgeoning you with a sledgehammer It's good to understand the personality characteristics of our pets Different cats have different personalities, but as a species there are a lot of commonalities Good Lord now I'm starting to wonder if there's like serial killer cats Yikes.
Starting point is 00:11:27 And here's the end of this story. The researchers also studied personality traits of clouded leopards, snow leopards, and Scottish wildcats. But it looks like the study said, regardless of that, house cats were most like lions, potentially because they live in semi-social surroundings and lions are the most social of cats. Oh yeah, I always see lions hanging out at the frozen. yogurt stand at the mall. I just didn't realize they were waiting to jump me in the parking lot and murder
Starting point is 00:12:00 me. Finally, they say cats are cute and furry and cuddly, but we need to remember when we have cats as pets, we are inviting little predators into our house. Cats can be fantastic, sweet companions until they turn on you. Yikes!
Starting point is 00:12:21 You know what? Man. I don't think I'll be getting a cat anytime soon for you people that have them you might you might want to glue your cat to the wall at night or put them in Velcro or something or put them in the fridge you got a killer living in your house man
Starting point is 00:12:41 geez get yourself a dog get yourself a Rottweiler with a bad temperament at least you know it's coming God cats just sneaky little murder in the house. Scary stuff, scary stuff. Be sure and tell them large marge sent you. Well, on a less scary note, on a more cheery note,
Starting point is 00:13:14 when was the last time you threw a party? Have you thrown a party recently? Um, you know, you got to prepare for it. You got to get all the stuff together. You got to get the paper plate and the balloons and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. So I thought it would be fun to, you know, pretend I was having a party and put in a call to a party store and see where it went. So here's the Harland Highway calls a party store. Thank you for calling a party city.
Starting point is 00:13:50 We're known as more party for less. This is it. So how may help you. Oh, hi. How are you? today. Good. Great. I need some help. I got to throw a, God, I'm all good. I got to throw a birthday party for my eight-year-old son, Melvin, and I'm just, my wife put this thing on me. I don't know how to throw a party. Do you have balloons, sons? Yes, we do. God, what, I mean, I don't know. What,
Starting point is 00:14:12 what do I put together for a, you know, eight-year-old hyperactive boy? Well, what are his interest? The kids hyperactive. Last year, we did a birthday party for him. I'm not, the kid ran right through a fence. A wooden fence. Unbelievable. My wife says this to you, it's on me. She's getting out of Dodge and I've got to take care of Melvin. This kid runs around in circles in the living room.

But if we have like regular themed, birthday decorations or we have like character decoration like you know like Star Wars and this type of the kid not these not the new Star Wars is coming out Melvin won't shut up about it you know he yelled practically yells C3PO and his sleep this kid you got you got C3PO stuff yes we do have Star Wars stuff oh thank God what do you got like C3PO you know balloons and
Starting point is 00:15:23 Yeah, we have like plates, napkins, just general decorations. All right. My wife wrote on those lists. Did you have the jump house thing? This kid's hyper. He ran through a fence last year, a wooden fence. No, we don't have any jump houses. Do you have anything you can jump around?
Starting point is 00:15:42 This kid's on riddling and he runs around and he smashed through a fence and went into the neighbor's yard, fell into the pool. You know, I can't believe she leaves it on me. I don't even really like my son, but, you know, you didn't hear that, but, you know, I just need help. I got to do something here. Okay, so we only carry decorations, so no jump house. You know, like a pogo stick or something, I could duct tape the kid on and let him jump around in the yard or something. I'd duct tape him to a, I mean, this kid, he spins plates and runs around in circles in the living room.
Starting point is 00:16:23 he's on riddling and like having damien in your house for christ's sake i'm sorry about that yeah what time he opened till because i got to get down there can you put some of those c3 p o plates to the side and balloons and star wars actually we can't hold any items at the moment just because there's really here we go i can already see him running through another fence right out into the traffic hitting his head on a trailer or something this kid melvin eight years old hyper okay i'm sorry oh boy well what time you open till um we are open till 12 12 okay well i got to get down did you have a hyperactive kid section or anything no we do not do you sell helmets because this kid kid i I'm just worried he's going to run through the fence.

This kid loves it. I'm going to be down there in about half an hour, okay? Okay, perfect. Thanks for your help, love.

Starting point is 00:17:57 Boy, Melvin, ran through a fence. Duck take them, duct tape, that's all, folks. Ducked tape them to a pogo stick. Glad I finally got that out. So there you go. uh melvin the riddlin boy and uh let's hope he doesn't go through another fence hello harland it's coach glass here i've got a bad story of underwear like for you i'm out with five guys we're out on the road we're doing a road trip and uh it's a business
Starting point is 00:18:42 trip and uh same thing i'm walking down the uh down the street and probably evidence at Rhode Island with the guys. We're going out for a nice dinner. I'm wearing some nice jeans that I just happened to be wearing the night before. And as I'm walking along, I feel like, what the hell is that at my bottom of my leg? What's there by my leg? And as I reached down just to itch my leg or see what's going on, I pull out a pair of underwear. And everyone's looking at me like, what the hell's that? And I had underwear leg. I was so embarrassed. I quickly just put them in my pocket. And I go, oh, I guess you must have left them there you know like as if it wasn't my fault it was something a positive thing you got to put a
Starting point is 00:19:20 good spin on it but there's your story harland uh chicken chan mane buddy underwear leg story for you coming to you live oh and they just keep coming god bless you thank you for your story you know when i broke this story a few uh a few podcasts back i was so convinced in my head that there must be other people out there with underwear leg stories. I couldn't be the only dupus. And you guys have been so generous and so gracious sharing.
Starting point is 00:19:57 Sharing is caring and sending in your wonderful underwear leg stories. Just fantastic. So as you can see, we're all flawed human beings. But I love it how Coach Glass made it seem like, you know, the underwear on the leg
Starting point is 00:20:18 was a result of a crazy one-nighter with some haughty or something. Good for you. Good, good ingenuity. Covering your tracks because underwear leg is just embarrassing, isn't it? I love how you stuck them in your pocket,
Starting point is 00:20:34 your own underwear. Stuck them in your pocket. Oh, Coach Glass. What the hell's that? And I had underwear leg. So I got such good feedback and I believe this was one of the Harland Highway questions of the day. Have you ever had underwear leg?
Starting point is 00:20:51 And I've got to believe that we should try and answer another big mystery question. And I just, I'm so encouraged by the underwear leg response. I think it's time for another Harlan Highway question of the day right now. The Harlan Highway question of the day. Okay, here it is. and I think this is another one that's happened to all of us, at least anyone who drives, and most of us drive or have driven.
Starting point is 00:21:23 How does this happen that you're driving and you turn on your windshield wipers and one day you turn them on and for whatever reason, right in the middle of the window, right in front of your face, dead smack in the middle of your window, it's like there's one little strip, one little patch
Starting point is 00:21:47 where the windshield wiper doesn't make contact with the glass. So in other words, there's rain or there's water, there's that morning moisture on the window, or you clean the window, you spray the spray, and your wipers are going back and forth, and there's that one streak right in the middle of your window, right where your eye line is, Hey, everybody. Who wants to have better sex? No? Yes? Yes. The answer is yes. You always want to have

Where it seems like the rubber of the windshield wiper isn't touching and it's giving that little area a pass.
Starting point is 00:23:39 It looks like a watery rainbow right across your eyeline. And you're like, what the hell? What's with the windshield way? Either you wipe the windows or you don't. Why are you leaving a little strip for me here? What do I need a little strip for? And I don't know how that happens. I mean, what the hell is that all about?
Starting point is 00:24:03 The windshield rainbow, I'll call it. The windshield rainbow. effect. Does anyone else ever get this? And I guess, you know, I think maybe in the past I've looked at maybe there's like a nut from a tree has fallen or a leave or something has gotten under the wiper blade and you have to go in there and pull it out. But in this scenario, my latest, you know, wiper rainbow, it doesn't appear.
Starting point is 00:24:35 There's anything under my wiper blade. And it's a very new. It's only like five months old, six months old. There's no reason I should have Noah's Ark across the front of my window. There's no reason I should have Raiders of the Lost Ark across my window where I'm driving. I don't need a big streak. My windshield wipers were designed to remove streaks. And believe it or not, the windshield wipers actually adding a streak.
Starting point is 00:25:09 that's a that's a backwards of fact it's it's redundant what that what the hell is that all about so there's the the harland highway question of the day why do some windshield wipers suddenly start to not do their job and instead of clearing the glass window in your automobile they leave a great big streak right across the middle For no reason at all Harland Highway Question of the day The Harland Highway
Starting point is 00:25:45 Question of the day All right Let's close the show out We gotta talk about this This is important stuff Right here I'm 14 carries I'm 14 carrie
Starting point is 00:26:01 Uh huh Doing it up like my eyes Uh huh Yeah, we say I got a touch, so good, so good, we can never want to leave. So don't. Yeah, we're talking about this. So don't.
Starting point is 00:26:17 Right here. Going to wear that dress you like skin tight. So get my hair. Real nice. And sink up, pay my skin to your heart beating. Stop, stop the music, Raj. Thank you. So here's, this is an interesting dilemma.
Starting point is 00:26:35 that we as a society are in. And it falls on females and males alike. But I think it's more problematic for males. This is a song from Selena Gomez, who I don't know how old she is, but I can't imagine she's much more than 20 years old. Maybe she's very young. And if she's over 22, I would be surprised. You know, let me look it up right now.
Starting point is 00:27:05 See how old she is. Okay, I'm looking this up right here on the Google. Here it is, Selena. Okay, well, look at this. She's 23. A young girl, but actually she's older than I thought. I actually thought she might be a teenager. But what's interesting is, you know, the video to the song that I'm just playing,
Starting point is 00:27:30 I think it's called I Want to Be Good to You. It's very simple. a very simple video, and it shows her in a room, in a couple of rooms for the most part, for the majority of the video, just rolling around on a couch in very provocative poses, at times very scantily clad. There's some scenes of her in the shower sitting around, you know, through the glass. There's shots of her sitting around with her hair all wet and a... a borderline see-through shirt.
Starting point is 00:28:09 And it's very sexy. It's very sexual. It's very provocative. It's very erotic. It's, you know, you can't tell is it targeted towards young girls? Just because maybe she wants them to emulate her persona. Or is it targeted towards young men, which I think it is, so that they can just oogle her and be seduced by her and trance by her
Starting point is 00:28:40 and whatever other word you want to throw in there. But the problem is if you watch the video, I mean, this is a girl with very youthful looks. I mean, like I said, if you watch the video, she looks like a teenager. I had no idea she was 23. And probably most people watching don't know somebody's age. You know, when you're watching these videos,
Starting point is 00:29:03 and movies and stuff, you kind of, all you have to go by is somebody's looks. And in this video, this girl looks like she's, you know, 17, 18 years old, very young. And so the question becomes, what is it, you know, that's really being peddled to consumers? You know, especially young men. Young men, college kids, even adult men, if they lay their own. eyes on this. I watched it and I was like, wait, what the hell are they trying to say here? What is the point of this video? Like, here's this girl rolling around on the floor, you know, the time's half naked, pouting lips, you know, it's not like she's jumping around and singing like
Starting point is 00:29:54 Cindy Lauper, girls just want to have fun. She's got this look in her eyes, like, and I think any man any man could tell you this. She's got this look in her eyes and the way she's moving and the way she's staring into the lens. She's kind of saying, come and get me. And I'm not saying in a rapy way. I'm saying just in a seductress way.
Starting point is 00:30:18 She's kind of skulking around like a cat stalking through the weeds. You know, she's doing these little eye movements. You know, it's everything short of, you know, come and get it, boys. And I guess what frightens me is, you know, we live in a society where, you know, you have this line between what's acceptable and what's not acceptable. And we have laws as a society that we all live by, that there's a certain age of consent for men and women to engage. with each other physically and there's an age where it's not permitted and it's illegal and it shouldn't happen. It's immoral. It's everything else. And I guess what frightens me is when artists put out
Starting point is 00:31:15 this kind of provocative material that I worry might blur the lines for upcoming generations of young men. You know, when I was a youth, we certainly didn't have this kind of a video. You know, we had Madonna jumping around and share and, uh, you know, the go-goes. It's ridiculous. Because I just want to look good for you, good for you. Uh-oh. I just want to look good for you, good for you. Uh-oh.
Starting point is 00:31:52 Let me show you how proud I am to pay you. So from a psychological point of view, I looked at this and I kind of like delved into it in my own mind and I thought boy oh boy you know this stuff is you know the videos kind of like I said it's saying I'm a young young girl come and get me look how sexual I can be and and like I said by the look of the video this girl looks barely over the legal age and so I think about the word imprinting and I go if if boys teenagers Boys, teenagers, and young men, adolescent men are subjected to these over-sexualized videos by the likes of, you know, Selena Gomez and that Hannah Montana chick,
Starting point is 00:32:46 whatever her name is, that freak, Miley Cyrus, who also looks like a little she nymph. You know, she's good. She put that video out, Recking Ball, where she's pretty much naked almost. for the whole video swinging around and I go I go does that set the table
Starting point is 00:33:07 for young generations of males to become desensitized to age limits in other words if you're exposed to these very young girls
Starting point is 00:33:23 being so provocative and sexual and you're watching this what happens when when you get older and and you know you become a businessman maybe you're in your your late 20s your 30s your 40s but you grew up on all this imagery of these young provocative girls is it setting the table for trouble have to do men that do boys that have come into manhood now have this stuff imprinted in in their head that young girls are
Starting point is 00:33:59 sexual objects and does it make it hard for men to resist those urges or those sensibilities? Does it make men less compassionate or less understanding towards young women? My God, I guess what I'm saying is does an older guy who grew up on all this stuff have problems? problems that my generation didn't have because we weren't exposed to this stuff. But do men in today's generation or the next generation get into trouble because they go through life thinking that young women are super, super sexual?
Starting point is 00:34:53 Sexual in a way that wasn't on display when I was growing up, I'll tell you that. You know, you had sexuality, but like I said, it was older women, it was Madonna, and sexuality was kind of, you know, shown by like showing a little leg, maybe a little cleavage. But the videos now are so over the top, sexualized from start to finish. like in my time if there was sexuality in the video okay but it didn't it wasn't the whole three four minutes of the song it was like quick little cuts quick little flashes and it was usually with adult characters you know it was with the older older people and i guess i guess the issue i'm having now is is what's the deal with with these these videos
Starting point is 00:35:53 now where the girls look like they're in their teens. Is it setting up a disaster for future generations of men who don't know how to know where the line is when it comes to girls and women's sexuality and the boundaries? It's a weird question. Maybe it's a dangerous question. And I guess I ask it because I worry about women, I worry about men, I worry about men like, you know, getting out of control on a young woman or a young woman thinking that that's the way she's supposed to be. She's supposed to be all sultry and seductive. And if a boy or a man comes along and she starts acting that way, and then this boy or man who was raised on all this stuff gets sucked into.
Starting point is 00:36:49 into all this imagery that he was raised on, does he or she accidentally cross the line and get into trouble? It's very peculiar. It's an interesting time we're in, man. And I think it can be a little bit dangerous. And, you know, I wonder if maybe they should dial it back a notch on letting the really, really young girls. and even if they're not young, if a girl looks like she's underage,
Starting point is 00:37:23 should they allow that? That's an interesting question. Should they allow that type of blatant sexiness preyed across the screen like that? I don't know. It's enough for me to say I'm not trying to be a prude, but I'm just trying to, you know, it's something that occurred to me watching these videos
Starting point is 00:37:46 because I was like, Oh, my crap. I heard the song on the radio. I liked it. It was catchy. I thought, oh, this is kind of a sexy song. I didn't know much about Selena Gomez. I knew she was like a Disney kid.
Starting point is 00:38:00 And I thought, well, I want to hear the song. So I went on YouTube and I up came this something I did not expect. I'll tell you that. I was like, holy God. How old is this kid? Why is she rolling around on the floor? with a wet t-shirt. Where's her pants?
Starting point is 00:38:21 It definitely didn't, it definitely wasn't something I expected. Now, that being said, the song is kind of sexy sounding, as you've heard. So I guess I expected maybe the video would be a little bit sultry and sexy, but I didn't think it would be that bad. And you guys can go watch it for yourself. You might watch and go, yeah, whatever.
Starting point is 00:38:44 I don't see anything wrong with it. and I'm not saying there's anything wrong with it. I'm just saying, you know, you have to call into question if it's appropriate, I guess, is what I'm trying to say. But I'll leave that up to you guys. If you have kids, would you let your kids watch it? Because it's not like the videos telling a story and being goofy and silly, or, you know,
Starting point is 00:39:12 if the line is about, you know, let's say, The line is about, uh, I was walking through the forest and I fell in love with you, you know. Um, do you show a girl walking through the forest and whistling and skipping? You might, but in this video, it's like, no, it doesn't matter what the lyrics are. She's just rolling around, you know, grinding it and thrusting and her, her, her breasts, which I have to say look very large because of this video. They're pressing against her shirt just dying to pop out, it looks like. So it's a dilemma, man. It's weird.
Starting point is 00:39:53 And like I said, I wonder if it sets up problems for future generations of people where it blurs the lines between what's right, what's wrong, where does sexuality start, where does it end? I just hate to see anyone get hurt because, you know, they've been programmed to not understand what those boundaries are. And I think it makes it tough on men who, you know, we live in a world where we're constantly being told about women and equal rights and women aren't sex objects and women themselves are parading around going,
Starting point is 00:40:30 stop treating us like sexual things and beings and objects and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. And then you have, you know, this kind of blatant. female sexuality being like rubbed right in your face and there's groups that go well we're just celebrating femininity and if you can't handle it you know
Starting point is 00:40:53 you've got a problem you're a pervert or something and it's like no that's not fair you know men have natural urges they react to sexual imagery and erotic imagery that's just we're wired that way so we're women
Starting point is 00:41:09 And so when you dangle that in front of a man's face and he reacts to it in a man way where he's like, oh, wow, look at that, man. Can you blame the man if suddenly he's aroused by this type of stuff? And so it becomes very hard to know which way to step right or left. It's bizarre. And so maybe it's just something that needs to be talked about. but I'll leave it up to you. It's just something that popped into my head
Starting point is 00:41:43 when I watched Selena Gomez. Beautiful girl, great song, and I recommend you go watch the video yourself and see what it makes you feel. Interesting stuff. I'll leave it right there. Well, why don't we leave it right with a few more beats from the song and go out on a little, you know, sultry note here?
