The Nikki Glaser Podcast - #475 Mommy Julie, Chock-Full of Deer Meat & Nikki's Concern For Movers

Episode Date: September 26, 2024

Nikki’s got her ‘mommy’ Julie in the studio. She’s totally into the whole silly name thing. She’s rocking the biggest sunglasses she could find to avoid any small talk in the elevator. Plus, Nikki admits her phone totally distracts her from giving anything a fair chance. Nikki blew up on TikTok overnight, and she’s loving it! While unboxing a perfume that’s supposedly worn by Taylor Swift, Julie’s not buying it—she’s pretty sure it’s not the fragrance she actually picked. Julie’s such a creature of habit; she always hits the discount bin and goes along with stuff she doesn’t really want to do. In the Final Thought, Nikki’s on a mission to figure out why Julie said yes to that camping trip she was totally not into, and reveals a fear she has for movers.   Subscribe to Big Money Players Diamond on Apple Podcasts to get this episode ad-free, and get exclusive bonus content: https://apple.co/nikkiglaserpodcast  .

Hello, here I am. Welcome to the show. It's the Nikki Glaser podcast. Fresh week of podding for you. I'm joined in studio in St. Louis.

I'm back home. My mom is here. What's up, Julie? Hi, Nikki. Never called you that in my life. So sorry about that. Let's start this. Let's start it. Mom's getting old. Yeah. You're more than a mom to me now. It sounds mom. Jules. Just call me Julie. Mommy? Mommy would be nice. No. I don't think I've ever heard that I've never said it Well, when you were little you did I did?

Oh, that's cute Yeah Get back to that When did I drop it? No, let's get back to it Let's get back to mommy I do like it Daddy, I will never

Did I used to say daddy? Daddy, yes Of course you did I used daddy for Chris For the dog And he silently puts up with it, but I can tell he really doesn't like it. I'll be like, go find daddy.

Well, that's weird. I like it. I have a new joke about how you can't get mad at me for calling my dog, being like, do you love your mommy to my dog? Or being like, I'm your mommy. Because if I say, oh, I'm your owner. Do you love your owner?

I sound like Thomas Jefferson Talking to His slaves No it's like Owner is a weird Thing to say What else Would I say

In that situation Master Some people say master Oh see That is giving Plantation as well Yeah It's total plantation

Yeah some people Go up to their dogs And say You're my slave Wait no one go up to their dogs and say, you're my slave. Wait, no one says that to their dog. Wait, oh yes they do. I guess you're right. Well, dogs are slaves. Kind of.

Well, anyway. They get wages. They work for food. I just thought it was the other way around. We're their slaves. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. We're the ones picking up their shit. Thomas Jefferson wasn't picking up his slave shit. Well, we did say that to Sarah Lena's dog. We called her, you're a little sex slave.

What? Sex slave? Yeah, because she had a leather collar. And Taylor one time just saw the leather collar and was like, what's a little sex slave? And we were all like, what the fuck? I would be so pissed. And then we all just jokingly were like, Noah was there. We were on a girls trip and we thought it was

So funny that this dog That Taylor just out of nowhere was like She's a little sex slave Cause she had a leather black collar And it's like She was a black fluffy Small dog and she was so cute And we just started calling her sex slave

And she was a sexy slave Did I say this? That would make me so mad. On the podcast recently, Sarah Lena loved it, but we kept being like, so then it just became her name. We're like,

so how's sex slave doing? Like even when Billy the dog was dying, we were like, is sex slave okay? Like it just became her name. I love when nicknames that are so ridiculous take on. You guys always do the extreme. Oh yeah,

with our friends group wait there was one last night that I was we were saying and we were like how is that just

what we oh oh it was Octomom we were talking last night my mom goes she's like

reading her phone she goes oh Octomom had another kid and I go well that's impossible because I was quickly reading it

she had a grandchild right and then my mom goes how many kids did that Octomom have and we just waited Well, that's impossible because she's too old. I was quickly reading it. She had a grandchild. Right. And then my mom goes, how many kids did that Octomom have? And we just waited for her to do the math slowly. You didn't wait that long. I didn't. I go, eight, mom. And then you were like, oh, I'm so dumb.

And I go, you're not dumb because Octomom, you don't even think about the number eight. It was just like what her name became. Yeah. And it's so funny that we all, that's such a funny name. And then it was just like that's just her name and no one even laughs anymore when you say octomom it's just like what it was yeah so if one of those kids dies she's still octomom and then it's like every time you bring up her name yeah well she had yeah she had six she had four at home already i think she had two more

yeah i think she already had kids and then she got pregnant with eight more. Bleh. Yeah. Well, she had 15 or 14 kids. She had 14, so she must have had five before the eight. I'll wait for you to do this math. I think it's exciting. Hold on.

I think it's thrilling. I think people are on the edge of their fucking seat. I just want to address some things if you're watching the show i'm wearing sunglasses i'm just like not into my face anymore i just don't want to see my face i'm not loving the lighting in here i'm not like i see the clips and i'm just like you just look tired i just can't do it and it's too early in the morning my face is not like done the um right flushing that it needs to do i should be doing like um you know where you like press on your lymphs and like then drain your face with a face massage if i did that

i would be fine but i'm not i'm not don't know about that i have too many things to do facial massage so i just am wearing sunglasses that i got sent because i made a tiktok about how i got taylor swift taylor swift was wearing some sunglasses at the u.s open a while back i bought them instantly they're 99 bucks anything affordable that she wears i will buy bought them within seconds uh they arrived the next day and then i did a tiktok where i put them on and i go oh actually i i don't like these and i sounded like i was gonna say i don't hate them but it it blew up and then a company sent me sunglasses you know emily my social media girl was like quay wants to send

you sunglasses because of your tiktok i'm like okay okay okay okay so i'm wearing those i do like those i don't even care if you do or like i'm glad you do okay i just i'm i'm i don't know when sunglasses look good or not on me do you like them i haven't even looked in the mirror yet i unboxed them and just put them on before this you look good in anything they cover up a lot of your face that's what i like that's why i chose these they sent me two and these ones are more covered of my face i really was thinking about wearing some sort of veil or something over my face to do the podcast like i'm not going totally burka but like maybe a one with just maybe just the eyes that you know like um like a ninja turtle mask um no she's thinking oh that's interesting just an okay

i could do like a ninja mask i just don't, I'm not trying to appropriate anyone's culture or religion. Sometimes I could get on board with wearing a veiled look. Sure, sure. Like, there's that country singer. Have you ever seen him? He has like a country hat and he has like, it's like almost beads. Oh yeah, it's coming down. Yes.

What's his name? And he covers his face all the time because I think he does the Sia thing, which Sia, the singer, always sings to the wall and she has a big wig on because she doesn't want to be, when she became famous, she didn't want to be seen in public and like recognized.

So no one really, you can know what she looks like, but it's not like front and center. It's Orville Peck. Oliver Peck, that's right. Orville. Yeah, yeah, that's right. Well, he was one of the guys

that reached out to Chapel Row, and that's all I know. But I could do the... This would still be honoring my contract if I did the podcast on the wall like Sia. It would still... iHeart could not sue me

for not being on camera. I don't think they would. That's right. Right? This would still work. I think I might try that someday. What about if you could wear a Daft Punk helmet

or a marshmallow? Oh, that's a good idea. I should start getting creative with the cover-ups. Because if I can't have hair and makeup, I really am not about it. And I'm all about, like, being yourself. But I'll tell you I have hair and makeup and I look amazing. I just don't want so much footage of me out there looking all beat up. Yeah.

Okay. If there is, I want it to be like a quick TikTok. I think the ship has sailed on that. I know. It's already out there Well I think now I can't do it anymore And I'm also wearing a shirt that I got Also for free

And these are not plugs I'm just like telling you About my shirt it says sorry I'm on Voice rest I saw Hannah Burner Wearing this shirt on Her Oh you're just spilling coffee all over yourself. What the hell? Oh, man.

We got to see that again. Oh, my God. Can we do that rewind? Oh, you're just spilling coffee all over yourself. What the hell? It was a waterfall of coffee down your breath. Damn it. Oh, Julie. Nikki, I'll clean this up. I'll clean this up. It was a waterfall of coffee down your breath. Oh, Julie.

Mommy. You don't need to clean anything up. It's a black sweater that I let you. It's from the... This lid does not fit. We are suing my apartment building. It doesn't fit. So this shirt, I saw Hannah Burner wearing it and I DM'd her and I was like, where did

you get that shirt that says, sorry, I'm on voice rest? Good font. It's a Woody Allen font. Yes, totally. Oh, yeah. And she said, it's our merch for Giggly Squad, her podcast. Whoa. Sick.

She goes, what size are you? And I go, whatever size you are. I like the way things fit on you. So she sent me this shirt and a sweatshirt. It is awesome because no one talks to you when you're wearing this how often do you wear have you worn i just wore it today and in my elevator it was like mom's the word and not that i don't want to talk to people in the elevator i've been clear about this a casual hello is fine but i didn't even get that i mean it is really an

anti-social shirt and to be fair you were also wearing your burka mask so i oh my god i love i love this shirt and i might never ever wear anything else except these shirts just wear that in ubers you hate talking to but uber drivers can't read backwards they can't read out of the room for me it's just very confusing no no uber drivers um no you can click i get u Uber blacks and you can say conversation No, no conversation And then sometimes they go, well You clicked no conversation So I'm not going to talk to you

And I go, oh, well, that's okay No one does that to you Are you punishing me now? No, they do sometimes snarkily say that And then I go, no, I'm sorry It's just clicked from the last time Someone else had my app I just like lie Markly say that. And then I go, no, I'm sorry. It's just clicked from the last time. Someone else had my app.

I just like lie. No, but not you. I'd love to talk to you about your son's graduation. Yeah, you seem not, you know, passive aggressive at all. You seem to like to have a lot to say about Bitcoin. Speaking of different languages, I was at a hotel and I had a delivery. You can deliver to the lobby, obviously. I met with this guy and he didn't speak English.

Have you seen those commercials? I think it's for Google Pixel with that phone that flips up. You can stand it like a chair almost. Yeah, you can stand it like a chair. Then they have these commercials where someone's in a different country and they speak a language and the person's like i don't understand what the fuck you're saying and then she brings out her phone and she's letting she says it into

the phone and it translates it automatically no i haven't seen the commercial but okay i can well that's a commercial and when i watch that commercial i'm like it doesn't really clock how amazing that technology is but then i got a door dash delivered to the hotel lobby and the guy didn't speak english and he uh was delivering like the wrong food to me and i was like i don't think this is mine i don't think this is my bag and he's like i don't understand what you're saying and then he took out his google phone and i spoke into the phone in english and it translated it into whatever language i didn't know what language he was speaking it was all these weird letters i didn't understand i couldn't even discern what language it was. But the phone translated what I said automatically. And then he said something back to me and the phone translated

it for me. And I'm like, this is the most incredible technology I've ever seen. That's great. So you saw it firsthand. I saw that commercial too. So yeah, I know what you're talking about. On the commercial, it feels like, oh, this is dumb. This woman doesn't want to have hot soup or whatever. But in real life, it's like we there's no language barrier anymore as long as you have that i can't imagine how awesome you didn't just see he didn't have your phone and or your food was it was the wrong food so obviously it's like the wrong courier and so you just walk away like not in a rude way but you're just like oh it's the wrong one like well he handed me the bag and then i was about to walk away and then i look in the bag and and I'm like, wait a second.

Because I even said, for Brian, and he said yes, and it wasn't for Brian. He just didn't know English. He didn't know what I was saying. Right, right. So I took the bag. I started walking away. I looked in, and I was like, this isn't enough stuff, and I ran after him, and I said, hey, hey.

I even said his name, because it says the person's name on DoorDash. I said, Dylan, Dylan, and he turned turned around even though his name's not Dylan. Yeah. So this guy totally... This poor guy. You know, I feel so bad for anyone who comes to a country and is working

and doesn't understand just basic, the basic language. Shout out to anyone. I mean, they're not listening to this. Maybe they're translating it. But if you are... They're holding their phone right up to this.

Yeah. But if that would be so hard, I, like, panic when i'm in another country and i don't speak the language yeah and i i just feel so embarrassed i feel so embarrassed and i but on the flip side i've never embarrassed for people who don't know english no you're right you shouldn't i was amazed i was just amazed and stunned at the effectiveness of this phone yeah well that's pretty cool i mean there's i do the thing when i'm in foreign countries where you take a picture you don't even take a picture you just

hold up your camera and every word gets translated on your screen yeah that's what it did yeah but i mean like it also so if you like are looking like when we were looking for cough medicine for you just hold it up and it would just translate all the words on the picture. How do we get around before then? Well, this is going to change everything. It's been around for a while, I think. You can take a picture of French words and then

it'll translate it for you? Not even take a picture. You just hold your camera over it and then all the words on your phone that are in French will have a little uh you know as if you were writing text in to type it they will just have that text be english that is amazing on a menu it's awesome it's just it's a free app it's like google translate i think wow it's awesome translate is amazing thank god for google you know they've saved this planet truly they're just the

most amazing company well i was thinking to this weekend, we always talk about how no one looks anything up. No one thinks anything anymore. They're just like, oh, who was that guy in that movie? And you just Google it and you find it. That is truly atrophying a part of your brain that used to have to eat. Now my brain doesn't even think to think,

if that makes any sense. If you were to be like, Nikki, what's that one movie? I wouldn't even think to go, if that makes any sense. Like if you were to be like, Nikki, what's that one movie? I wouldn't even think to go, let me think about it. I would just think to grab my phone and type. So true, yeah. So you don't even think to think. It's true. There's no thinking going on anymore.

No, it's so easy. This is why meditation, it makes so much sense why meditation has become such a huge part of our culture is because it is just the only way people do anything without being on their phones like people don't just sit with their thoughts anymore ever you don't have to ever ever ever and you used to not really like in the 90s people watched a lot of tv but now it's like now the whole joke is like anything you're watching on tv you're not watching because you're on your phone i mean i read a meme I posted on my story yesterday

that was like me watching a movie. I don't know, me watching a movie while on my phone the whole time. I don't know, it's just like slow and kind of boring and confusing. That's how I feel about everything. It's like, I'm not giving anything's a fair chance. No.

It's my phone. It's not fair. It's so easy just to Google. And you don't, but we have to challenge ourselves to like maybe try to think of that one song or try like oh that person or that push yourself a little bit crossword puzzles help me do that because you do need to think and and those but it's tough yeah oh elevate the app elevate by the way they did they did fulfill their promise and they did give me a lifetime membership for free god that's great yes wow it's an app that helps your brain i know i remember we were all talking about it yeah and they they offered a lifetime membership

because we're talking about it i'm really into this thing of like like you talk about something then people reach out and find you. Like Emily today just freaked out. My social media girl, Emily, I'm not, so I don't have to say social media girl every time. Right. But Emily reached out to me today and she's like,

dead, deceased, which means, you know, something big happened. And I'm like, oh my God, what's this going to be?

I don't know how that means something. That's Gen Z for like, oh my God, this is amazing. I'm like so excited i'm dead i'm deceased okay not living plan my funeral eulogize me and they just say that but they say it was like it all caps so she wrote dead deceased something like that and then she wrote she sent me a screenshot that diet coke commented on one of my tiktoks and she's like flipping out oh my god she's like nikki this is

major oh my god because diet coke commented something wow she goes no no dot fucking dot way and then diet coke commented so important to set these boundaries because i posted a tiktok and then i go oh my god it's the taylor swift of brands and she goes no this is so huge wow what's gonna happen um but I just TikTok is becoming a new fun challenge for me your page is blowing up for sure like I did thank you I did one the other like Emily will send me you know a bunch of suggestions of ones we're on the road this weekend and she sent me like I was like just send me some trends that are happening maybe I'll do them. And I was looking them over and I didn't

understand most of the jokes being made. Like, it just, I would like to talk to some people about the humor that's being passed around on TikTok because I don't understand it. I don't even have TikTok. We need to keep you off that.

Your dad is addicted to it. You will never speak to anyone again. No, dad's addicted to Reddit. Oh, Reddit. Yeah, yeah. Sorry. So different. Sorry.

Duh. But TikTok, you're going to love. It's pretty much, do you do reels on Instagram? Yeah. That's TikTok. Okay. But it's more curated, and I think it's a little more addictive on TikTok. Anyway, this weekend, she sent me a bunch of ones and one was like um you know you could do

this thing it was like a katie perry song and you're supposed to like sing it like sweetly to the camera and like look kind of cute doing it okay and it's for like girls who are cute that like their brand is being adorable and like i totally honor that And it's just not, I'm not capable of being that. Like, I'm adorable and having everyone go, yeah, she, you know, like, it's just, I can't do it. It's got to be funny. Yeah, it's got to, it's got to be funny. It's got to be like, I, it's got, I got to sneak it. People have to be, think I'm adorable despite me.

Like, I have to look like I'm not trying to be. Right. But these, these like you try to be adorable and that's the goal and anyway so i looked at it and i was with um bill and sean my friends and and bill was like supposed to film me for i was like you know bill will you film me for a tiktok and so i'm just going through these like looking to see which one i'll do and i was just like no i'm not doing that that's i'm not fucking doing that and i i just and then i was like oh that could be kind of funny like maybe that becomes a tiktok of me and then i'll title it my social media manager sending my gen z social media manager sending me things that i should do at or whatever and then it's just me

going i'm not doing that uh no hell not doing it and then yeah and then now it has like a million views just me saying that wow and then the caption was like no no chance am i gonna be this adorable and then we like kind of put the video i was watching in the corner so you can see what i'm watching and being like uh-uh not doing that and then it has a million views. And now that is being clipped. Me saying, no, not doing that is now going to be a soundbite that people use in their own tech docs to like, do you know what I'm talking about?

To, to lip sync to. Oh, right. I've seen, I've seen that. And it's taking on a life of its own. It's just this,

this is fun to me. And I feel like anyone on tech doc watching me is not the same people on Instagram. Like I feel so much freer on TikTok. Like I don't feel like there are comedians watching me being like, ew. The only people watching you is the Chinese government. My target audience. That's a good point.

So yeah, I'm really digging it. Wow, so that's a whole new thing for you. You're a trendsetter on TikTok. I mean, I hate to tell you how much money you make off of these. Oh my God. You wouldn't believe. I had no idea. Emily's like, yeah, that video just made you X amount of dollars.

Wait, how much can you say? How much? A thousand dollars. Wow. Just from that going viral. That one maybe not. I think like ones that have like 2.5 million. A thousand dollars Wow Just from that going viral That million That one maybe not I think like ones that have Like 2.5 million

A thousand dollars I didn't know there was Money like this to be made Wow I guess people do know this Because they watch YouTube videos About influencers making things I'm sorry that number

Is triggering to some people People know People know that I didn't know that I heard When I watch social media channels I've heard that TikTok pays the least

Out of anybody And that the real money Is in YouTube's what emily said she goes you need to start a youtube and i'm like yeah what do i do on there so let her guide you my god but i'm scared on youtube it's long form and there's more judgment and there's comments that are more accessible well in theory the podcast is supposed to be that. That's what you would do. It's like an hour, 30 minutes of just talking. That's right. You do a vlog or whatever. We don't have those kind of numbers on YouTube yet, but after this coffee spill that you've got to go watch with my mom,

it's going to send people throngs over there. We've got to go to break. We'll be back. I want to do a little... I've got some things that I want to show you.

You know, keystones to the culture.

This season, we've had some amazing one-on-one conversations, like I'm Pete Bill chatting up with hitmaker Sam Holland, sugar Steve chatting with the legend Nick Lowe, and I've had pleasures of doing one-on-one conversations with Willow, Sonata Matreya, Kathleen Hanna, and The RZA.

I'm Ellie Flynn, and I'm an investigative journalist. When a group of models from the UK wanted my help, I went on a journey deep into the heart of the adult entertainment industry. I really wanted to be a player boy, my dog. Lingerie, topless.

I said, yes, please. Because at the centre of this murky world is an alleged predator. You know who he is because of his pattern of behaviour. He's just spinning the web for you to get trapped in it. He's everywhere and has been everywhere. It's so much worse web for you to get trapped in it. He's everywhere and has been everywhere. It's so much worse and so much more widespread than I had anticipated. Together, we're going to expose him and the rotten industry he works in. It's not just me. We're an army in comparison to him.

Listen to The Bunny Trap on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I started to live a double life when I was a teenager. Responsible and driven, and wild and out of control. My head is pounding. I'm confused. I don't know why I'm in jail. It's hard to understand what hope is when you're trapped in a cycle of addiction. Addiction took me to the darkest places. I had an AK-47 pointed at my head. But one night, a new door opened, and I made it into the rooms of recovery. The path would have roadblocks and detours, stalls and relapses. But when I was feeling the most lost, I found hope with community. And I made my way back.

This season, join me on my journey through addiction and recovery. A story told in 12 steps. Listen to Crems as part of the Michael Lura Podcast Network. Available on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Okay, so I went on, I got

some stuff, I got back in town from being gone for three weeks and there were a lot of packages waiting for me and I forgot that I ordered a lot of stuff. Didn't I see you at some point? You did see me, but I still missed you. It was still a long time. That's right, you flew, yeah. I saw you like a week ago. Yeah, we it up we hooked it up we sure did it was so fun oh my god i almost didn't want to go too hard about how fun it was last night because with

you and me and dad at dinner because he knew i came back his party wasn't as fun as yours he had he had such a good time he did and he actually got to see me present an Emmy and then get not... He was in the mix for sure. He had a better show experience. You had parties. You were partying a lot. He was hanging with Rob Reiner. That's all he really cared. He loved it.

Okay, so open that thing. It's not for you. It's for me, but you can borrow it. If this is the thing, it feels golden. Yeah, it is you can borrow it A little satchel If this is a thing It feels golden Yeah it is golden Oh Julie's opening a satchel She's pouring something

In her hand Oh my god I love it Isn't it so good Oh I remember You said you were Going to order this Yes it's

Oh yeah I sent it To you already Damn it Because I was going To have you guess the price It's a golden chain I really don't know the price Well it's a Versace Is it Versace How many TikTok videos Would you need to make Before you can pay for. It's a golden chain. I really don't know the price. Well, it's a Versace.

How many TikTok videos would you need to make before you can pay for that? It's Versace. One fifth. Is this inspired by Taylor Swift? Oh, yes, it is. It's a Taylor Swift lover necklace

that she's worn before and I found it on Etsy for 210 bucks. Wow. It's a bargain. That's the most I've ever spent. Bargain. I love it. I do love it too. I'm so excited a bargain. That's the most I've ever spent on my life. Bargain. Oh.

I love it. I do love it too. I'm so excited about it. I can't get it off either. Okay. And then now I got another thing. I really don't know how to get this off. You just press the thing.

No. There's pressure and it's nothing. Well, you can keep it. Thanks. Also, very quick with the fraction there. Really? Yeah. I just went to $200 and then...

$200 is cheap for this. Oh, it fell. I mean went to 200 and then 200 is cheap for this. I mean, I don't think I'd be able to get one-fifth means 200 that quickly. Out of a thousand? Yeah, I don't think so. Really? Is this real? Speaking of atrophying brain stuff, math for me is like, it might as well be like Egyptian hieroglyphics. I look at the

numbers. No way! Yeah, I can't even do a tip. You seem like a math guy. No, see, that's the words, guys. Wait, you can't do tips i mean i i have okay let me give you a tip okay yeah the bill the bill is 180 bucks yeah okay so tip 20 okay uh 36 dollars all right okay i would just round up to like for me to be easy Because sometimes I'm like 18 I'm like times 2 So I would just go to 20 And then make it 40 And then subtract 4

Or I would really just make it 40 I've seen you Wait I want to ask you Is this real? Yeah it's real I think it retails for like $5 $75 or something So I got it used Isn for like $575 or something. Oh my God. Nikki, this is a bargain.

Isn't it? Isn't it? Nikki. I'm not kidding. I know. I know. I thought you would like it. I love it too.

See, that's- I love this. It is so cool. This should be a regular. So then I also- It's so cool. Taylor Swift was at the VMAs. I know who she has. Don't even tell me. It's so cool. Taylor Swift was at the VMAs. I know who she has.

Don't even tell me. It's Tom Ford. Yeah. Well, she was at the VMAs and someone asked her what she was wearing. Like she smelled good. I read the same thing.

And she said Tom Ford. And I don't know how Emily knew it was this kind of Tom Ford. Like who really knows? Because there's two different ones. No, there's lots of different ones. No, but she said which one. I guess they surmised which one.

I read the same article for some reason. I saw Taylor Swift have the conversation. She did not say which Tom Ford. She said it was Tom Ford. But everyone seems to think it's this one based on the Googling. And it's Santal Blush de Parfum. And you know that Chris does not like scents. Oh.

And so I've snuck this. He doesn't know about it. And I think I like it because it doesn't give too girly. It's not masculine, but it's not too floral. And yeah, you can try some of it. I want to see what you think.

Wait a minute. I'm sorry. But I sprayed it this weekend and I told both my male openers, because you wear it for, I want women to think i smell good but like i don't want men to be like repulsed by it and both my male openers who i said please do not just know that i will not be insulted if you don't like the way my wrist smells like right

now i just got this i will give it away it does not hurt my feelings and they were like no that's really good i don't know if i still trust them though no i wouldn't trust them yeah i would sean yeah right sean right wouldn't they're like they're telling me's really good. I don't know if I still trust them, though. No, I wouldn't trust them. Bill and Sean? Yeah, right. Bill and Sean, right? They're telling me what I want to hear. They will. No, I gave them every opportunity to not. I don't...

She's not a fan. It's kind of... They call it sandal. It's kind of a sandal-y... Like sandalwood? Sandalwood. Yeah, like old Tevas. Oh.

I'm not a fan of this. You aren't? No. I wouldn't care if it smelled like dog shit. If Taylor Swift wore it, you would love it. Yeah, I just don't care. I don't have my own. Oh, no.

You really don't like it? No. She's repulsed. I think you're wrong. I like it. I like it. I'm going to, ooh, shit, I'm going to wear it. There it goes.

It broke. Julie right now is wearing the scent of coffee. Yeah, that's probably why I don't like it. It's mixed with that and it's not a good. So you don't like it. Do you like a sense? Oh yeah. I honestly, I cannot believe that smells like that.

I couldn't wait to smell this yeah I saw the same kind of article I was like I gotta go check this Tom Ford well I did check it out I know

I'm telling you well here's the thing I've never even thought you're so good you're like going oh Chris Dunn like it's like

I've never even asked your dad do you like this well dad well Chris offers I do not like perfumes. I do not like smells. He's not going to like that.

No, I don't think so. I agree. It's going to be really too powerful. I have shampoos. I have conditioners. I have hairsprays. I'm constantly wearing things that smell. And Chris is never annoyed with those.

So I'm just going to try to- He doesn't even know that he just thinks it's a more delicate scent yeah they're not as potent that's true but i'm gonna be very gentle with this yeah the concept of perfume to me is absurd the idea that we need to like smell like walk through the world like like if you go into a subway there's like 15 people wearing different perfumes and colognes and stuff and it's like this just smells insane i see the point of it because smell is such a memory trigger and if someone if like mimi's if i smell red door it reminds me of mimi there's nothing else that will elicit the same kind of emotional response in my body of like Mimi than the smell of Red Door.

There's nothing. I couldn't see something. That's interesting. The memory. Even a picture of her would not give me the same like, oh, like she's here as a smell. So I do think they're important

and I do think it's kind of cool when people have their own scent and like care a lot about fragrance. Like I follow all these subreddits about fragrances and these people are obsessed with them and I wish that I I want to like

Where you can find yours. Well, I don't trust my own taste. But then also like scent is it's invasive. There's no way to get away from it.

If you step into an elevator with someone who's wearing perfume you're just trapped in a stench dungeon. And then it stays on you for a little. I know

but then you get used to it because it's a part of you like you get used to any smell that is just there but I'm saying if you if you're just on the elevator and then someone who has perfume on

walks into the elevator it's so invasive in your space what if it smells good though what if you don't like the smell it's like someone is just yelling in your face except

except in an olfactory sense that's the only thing that I worry about is people being offended by what I have on me. It's no different than just having BO, than just walking into an elevator and sticking. BO is unequivocally disgusting. Hold on.

Everyone hates BO. And then there's, I think, perfume is like... I think rose water is disgusting. Oh, I love rose water. It's my favorite scent. I don't really know what it smells I love rose water. It's my favorite scent. I don't really know what it smells like to be honest. It's amazing. You know what scent I hate the most?

Yeah. Is fresh linens. When a company tries to make their soap smell like something that people imagine fresh linens smells like. Or fresh rain. Spring mist. All those scents smell like shit. I, they just are artificial and I can understand why they irritate you because

they're made with chemicals. But if something's made like with essential oils, pure things, I don't mind it. Noah, where do you stand with perfumes? I do not. I'm on Chris's side.

I don't like when Avi wears cologne. I think because my dad would put so much on and we would be locked in the car with him and it would give me headaches and stuff. But I do like natural ones, like ones made with essential oils and stuff. Very, very light. Very light.

Okay, I agree. I agree with that. Lavender, lemongrass. We were somewhere and some guy hugged me and his smell stayed with me. Oh, he had that. We were at the restaurant. Remember I took you and dad to a restaurant a couple weeks ago with Chris in town? You should remember because you have that smell memory.

Yeah, that brings memories. It was loud inside. Okay. I i'm not gonna say where it is that's like every restaurant i know oh yeah oh yeah that guy yeah yeah our waiter loved my parents talk about calling you mom he called you mom right yeah and then he gave her a hug on the way out and i know that's i was like oh my god we're even outside and i can't get this smell off of me yeah it was really heavily i cannot okay now i really regret this purchase but i'm sure nicky it's not a great taylor it's good for me and i don't believe it's taylor would ever wear that what do you mean it's tom ford it's like somebody's wearing it yeah somebody's wearing she wouldn't wear that yes stop saying it was so much i don't like that tone That is really an irritating tone to me

Because you're making me You're shaming me By using my favorite person against me I'm pretty sure She wouldn't wear that She's kind of cool Top Ford is cool mom Nikki smell it again

I want everyone to go back And listen to that tone my mom just did Because that is the tone of her trying to get me To never do something No, I love that you follow Taylor And that necklace Is over the top Nikki, she would never wear something like that

Not my Taylor Not your Taylor You tried to say, please don't use my idol against me No, no, she just wouldn't wear it Because she's cool Exactly Yeah Honestly

I don't think she would wear that It's It hurts my feelings But that's okay But you didn't You didn't invent it It's not like And you're not even sure

That's her scent I'm pretty sure it is Tom Ford invented it It's gotta be I'm pretty sure it's not Tom Ford was sitting in a lab A couple weeks ago Tinkering with scents I'm pretty sure it is. It's gotta be. I'm pretty sure it's not. Tom Ford was sitting in a lab a couple weeks ago tinkering with scents.

I'm opening a package. This is the shirt I got Chris. I don't think it's gonna fit him. What is that? It's Brian Adams from a 1987 world tour. Is that for his birthday? Yeah, I got him a couple vintage shirts

for his birthday. One of them got sent to the hotel that we already left. And I don't even know how to get it. I need an assistant in LA. If anyone is trustworthy and can run errands for me in LA. Carlisle.

Someone who's trustworthy. She's the most trustworthy. No, of course she is. I just feel I don't want to. She's got a lot going on. Yeah, she has way too much going on. That's true. Yeah, but she does do stuff for me. But if there's anyone in LA Who is looking for

Some kind of Wants to run some tasks for me That's true It doesn't mean you'll be a part of my life You might never even meet me I might have you just ship things to me And pick things up So if

You just You know And Then you can just DM me Someone will be there for sure. Yeah. You've got plenty of LA fans. Well, that would be nice.

I'll pay generously. I mean, not like, I will fly to LA. Not some TikTok prices, but. Okay, this is so confusing to me. Whenever I pay anything, my mom goes, I would, okay,

this is the wildest one. Okay. So, okay, my mom goes i would okay this is this is the wildest one okay so what i so okay my mom and dad uh for my are their dogs i got a sitter for their dogs right their dogs that are my old dogs which is what was the plan it's like you know if you guys take care of these dogs for the rest of their lives and which they want because they love the dogs i'll pay for their food i'll pay for their vets i'll pay for literally every cost they ever have the rest of their lives. Fair deal.

They're taking care of them. So when my parents go out of town, I hire a dog sitter. My mom found out how much I'm paying that dog sitter. And this is my mom's words. Well, then I'll watch those dogs for that. And I go, they're your dogs. This doesn't even make sense. No, I'm talking about your dog your dog oh you'll watch my dog

for that amount yes well it's i'll do it for free but here's the thing is i will you whenever you find out what i pay people because i am a i feel that i pay very generous not very but like pretty generously for things you always go i would do that for And it's like, but I don't want you to have to like move an armoire for me. Like you. Well, I can't do that. Well, yeah, but you. But dog watching?

If you need some money, I will give you money. I don't want. Listen, here's the thing. I want you to have enough money. I want to earn money. I don't want to earn it. I don't want to be given money. No, I want to give you.

You've earned it by being my mom and being so supportive and loving. You did too, you put in the work already. You're my mommy. No. And so I give you money. I want to earn it. I want to give you enough money that you stop saying, I'd do that. I'll fly to LA to get some packages for you. I'll fly, I love LA. What is the price that you would not do

a menial task for 40 bucks? What is something I wouldn't do? Like would you ever, if you were a millionaire, would you still be interested in picking up a package for, like, in mailing it for 50 extra bucks? Yes.

Well, but you have a million dollars. Why do you need to do that? I just love to make money. This is so weird. It's not that weird. I mean, because it is weird because your time is money.

Your time is valuable and going off and sending a package is like not something you should be doing with it is weird because your time is money. Your time is valuable. And going off and sending a package is not something you should be doing with your time if you have a million dollars. Well, people who are rich, they'll pick up pennies and stuff. And they'll be like, you got to save every penny. And then they write about it on their website. It might be dumb, but it feels practical. But it's so funny to me that you're always trying to... I want your life to be comfortable, yet you're still like...

Oh, my parents' TV broke yesterday. And I go, just buy a new TV. Can I buy you a new TV? I pulled out my phone to look it up. I'm like, let me just buy you a new TV. Because I don't want my mom to go meet some man in a Maryland Heights Lowe's parking lot. Oh my God.

Because she found it on Craigslist. No, I found out how cheap... They're really inexpensive. And we don't have the goddamn cord for it, but your dad's going to go and he's going to go find the cord and she's going to send him off to the cord. She's so full of shit.

It'll take you five days to get a TV that you bought and you have to drive all the way out to Florissant to get it. I'm not doing that. I'm not looking at used TVs now. You aren't? Nope. Okay.

I gave up. You gave up? Like an hour and a half ago. I was in the doctor's office looking one last time. You aren't? Nope. I gave up. Like an hour and a half ago. I was in the doctor's office looking one last time. Is there one? It's worth the price of a TV just to have a TV delivered to your house. To not have to put it in your car.

I know. My mom loves putting things in her car. She loves loading things into a car. It triggers me so much. He's like, we can't even fit a tv in our car i'm like yeah we can i mean it's not i i'm i you know what i'm in awe i like respect it there's a couple things yes i do yes i do you think i honestly i don't because i like to earn things too so she absolutely does respect it i respect here's here's what i am learning about

myself like this morning i was we were talking i was on girls chat and i was one of our girlfriends has like their mother-in-law staying with them and that i would never want like not because i don't love no matter who my mother-in-law is i'm not thinking about someone in particular i mean any i don't want anyone staying at my house no you don't literally ever i don't care if it's my best friend i don't care i don't want anyone and i i know that's weird and i i don't know what's wrong with me i just i'd like to do the things the way i like to do i don't want to feel like i have to wake up earlier because they might be up i don't want to feel like oh they might not know how to work the

coffee maker so i need to be up to show them how but people love having company i'm not one of those people and i just need to be okay with it here's another thing i was watching hacks last night and they were loading um an old chest of drawers into a bus and uh they were at a yard sale which reminded me of you okay it was on season two okay pull off they go to a yard sale and what's her name finds a big chest of drawers that she's like oh this is worth twenty thousand dollars and she tries to lowball the guy and the whole time i'm thinking i'm like already stressing out where are they gonna put this thing they're on a bus on tour on the road and that's i i doubt anyone watching that scene would be like what how are

they going to transport it and then instantly it cuts to them like loading it on and i started getting almost hives from like having to like carry an armoire and like load it onto something that's why i don't think i want to move ever is because i don't like watching people move furniture i get stressed out by the idea of a couch fitting through a doorway anytime i go to like a living spaces and i see couches i'm like i can't believe people like getting new couches because it stresses me out having to take the old couch out and angle it and have sweaty men being like, I got it and ruining their bodies

in front of me. So I tip them way too much because I feel like I'm so sorry. You had me come when you had those couches. I did. I got out of town when my couches delivered because I can't even be in the room with it. It was stressful. It stresses me out. Because your couches

were so big. So big. They couldn't even get them in. They were like how are we going to get this in? I know. I can't believe. And they had to move one couch. They had to get the other couch totally out. I really did plan that so I wouldn't be here for it. And I paid you to do it

you were smart but and then we got it over to uh i paid you to just witness it because i know that is stressful i can't does anyone else feel that way when you guys move and stuff are you like oh my god i can't believe men are gonna have to come in here and like sweat and break their backs like it's it's yeah i don't like it like it fun to watch there is a term called lecophobia which is apparently people who are afraid of couches okay that's um what well we know i know jakey vance doesn't have it we were all like doing the calculus um i don't i'm not afraid of couches. I'm just afraid of the stress of moving things and putting things in boxes.

Yeah. What's it called when you have a phobia against moving couches? Like, like Chris will be like, oh, this, we should get this thing. And I'm like,

but it needs to be installed and there needs to be drilling and you will have to like move the table out from the wall. I can't like, I'm not even kidding you. I'm not going to have to, I want to move away for the first two months while Chris has everything loaded in. Because I can't. Yeah.

I don't know what that is. Yeah. I don't either. I mean, is it from your childhood? From us moving furniture? Possibly. I just get like. Fear of change?

Could it be fear of change? It's like things aren't going to fit. And then they're just going to leave them there. And then I'm going to just be stuck with like this bed frame in my doorway or something. Like I'm just scared because if I were a mover, I'd be like, fuck you, lady. I'm not doing this. Like it's not going to fit. Bye.

I'll just get a job elsewhere. This job pays crap anyway. I'll go work at McDonald's. And then I would just leave the bed frame in the doorway and then I will have to step over it for the rest of my life or move out. You're empathetic to people. That's what it is. You just feel bad. I do. I feel so

bad for movers. I would honestly love that mover. He's just like, you know what? Fuck you, lady. Fuck you. I'm out. That's what I feel like they all should do. The fact that there are people bossing around movers is so wild to me and like yelling at them and being like don't you break that like don't stop that fuck you lady i feel like it should be a a federal law that every

laborer should get like three fuck you ladies a year oh my god you know what fuck you lady i'm out and they don't have to do the job let's not pay them more let's just give them more fuck you ladies no recourse wait you get okay if it's a it's a moving company and they are 20 less than every other moving company but each man in the moving company has a right to say fuck you lady three times per move i think that would be so fun. Oh, be careful with the fabric on that. Fuck you, lady. There you go.

There's one. Can you please take off your shoes? It's like, fuck you, lady. Every single time. All right. We got to go to break. We'll come back with more after this. 2025 is bound to be a fascinating year.

Wow, very powerful. I'm Ellie Flynn, and I'm an investigative journalist. When a group of models from the UK wanted my help, I went on a journey deep into the heart of the adult entertainment industry. I really wanted to be a player boy in my dog. Lingerie, topless. I said, yes, please. Because at the centre of this murky world is an alleged predator.

You know who he is because of his pattern of behaviour. He's just spinning the web for you to get trapped in it. He's everywhere and has been everywhere. It's so much worse and so much more widespread than I had anticipated. Together, we're going to expose him and the rotten industry he works in. It's not just me. We're an army in comparison to him. Listen to The Bunny Trap on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I started to live a double life when I was a teenager. Responsible and driven, and wild and out of control.

My head is pounding. I'm confused. I don't know why I'm in jail. It's hard to understand what hope is when you're trapped in a cycle of addiction. Addiction took me to the darkest places. I had an AK-47 pointed at my head. But one night, a new door opened, and I made it into the rooms of recovery. The path would have roadblocks and detours, stalls and relapses. But when I was feeling the most lost, I found hope with community. And I made my way back.

This season, join me on my journey through addiction and recovery.

And we were in San Francisco meeting with him, and he's like, EJ, your dad was telling him about, this is what this trip what this trip is and he goes i want to do that and when he says he wants to do something he does it so it was like okay mark's coming in for and he and ej i'll go on this trip next thing you know his wife is coming so it was like shit jessica's coming can i just push back on this just because a wife comes doesn't mean you have to go. Kind of. No, it doesn't. This is a classic battle.

I think she would have been. I know you don't understand it, but. I do understand it. No, you don't. That you don't have a backbone when it comes to dealing with dad and telling him you don't like to do things. Well, anyway. Because you go, I got to go, Nick.

And I go, no, you don't. What if you didn't? Is he going to leave you for. He'll be pissed. Oak tree? Like, well, he gotta go, Nick. And I go, no, you don't. What if you didn't? Is he going to leave you for... He'll be pissed. Oak tree? Like, well, he has to be mad. He'll have an attitude during the whole thing. It was like...

Honestly, I just... But I said, if you go, you're not allowed to paddle. I was like, I told my dad, you are bringing an injured, broken woman on the river because she's going because of guilt, because she's going to be... She's scared you'll be mad at her. So she's going only because of that.

First of all, why would you want someone to go with you if they're only going so you wouldn't be mad at them? Can we all stop doing that? Some things you just do because you're married. That's why I'm not going to get married. I don't think that that's... Chris would never make me do something i actively don't want to do unless it really meant something to him and like it really wasn't what it is sometimes you don't want to do it but

then you do want to do it because it's because it makes him happy okay well then okay here's the only thing then if my mom's doing it just to make him happy i need him to acknowledge it and say thank you i know you don't want to do this. That would be nice. Because this is what my dad says. I go, dad, you know mom doesn't want to go. Yes,

she does. Stop saying that. She does want to go. I go, mom, do you want to go? No, I don't.

Dad, did you just hear mom say, I don't want to go? She wants to go. Mom, do you want to go? Literally, this is a conversation I had last night.

Did you want to go? I didn't want to go, Nick. Dad, did you hear mom say she didn't want to go she wanted to go it's like i don't understand what this kind of communication i just know it's important that i should go because it makes him happy and i mean i needed to go yeah okay i guess it's like about the end do you regret going yes she does okay so I mean I don't

regret it regret it but I will tell you over the first yeah because it's over thank you but would you do it again no not interested if you could go back in time and say Julie should you go on this trip would you say go on it I would say Jessica is gonna go to okay oh so you'd guilt your

past self into going maybe but probably not I mean I honestly when does a woman just do what she wants Okay. Oh, so you'd guilt your past self into going? Maybe. But probably not. I mean, I honestly. When does a woman just do what she wants and not like, you are of a generation of just like, we do things because other people want us to because I feel bad. And like, we all do this early on in our lives. When are you going to, hasn't Jane Fonda said, like she says that at some point in your life you get old enough where you stop giving a fuck

what people think and doing things for other people? When is that going to hit you? Well, let me just say, Jessica was in the same boat. She goes, Mark. Literally. So this is what you do. Jessica, let's hang out all weekend

and let's send these goofs off. I didn't even know if I wanted to do that. I was like, you know, okay, you know, I'm going. So you were being nice. Okay. So anyway, it was fine. Everything was great. We got there on Friday night. It poured down.

They said 40% chance of rain. Well, and we were already there. There were lightning bolts popping all around me. I was like, I'm getting in the tent and i'm gonna hunker down and i was scared to death i have to admit and it was something about having no control i mean it's like sure i put myself in this situation where i have no control dad put you in that situation and then you did by not standing up to it and saying i just don't want

to go and having that be a good answer. And you wonder why I go, why can't I be the way other people are? Because I come from a family that goes, you do want to go camping. Yes, you do. And I don't. I don't say that. Well, final thought.

This is reminiscent of a camping trip we went on. We went on so many camping trips as a kid. And there were so many downpours and so many lightning storms and really oh yeah i remember one where you were hunkered down in the tent going i don't like this ej and i was trying to be like a cool daddy's girl to quote a word i would never have called myself back then but i was trying to like my mom was the pussy in the tent my dad's making fun of her for being a pussy so I'm like I'm not a pussy I'm gonna

watch the lightning with my dad the lightning is striking all around us I think I kind of remember this do you remember that yes that's crazy and I was terrified but I was trying to stay cool for dad and then let's not even get into when you and Lauren almost drowned on the river you wonder

why I don't like going out on excursions. Their boat flipped. I was at the helm, which I shouldn't have been. No, but you liked it. You wanted to be at the helm. I did not. I'm doing dad. See?

You liked it. You wanted to be there yeah and then it flipped and um and and mom and lauren lauren almost drowned lauren almost drowned i mean well she went under a tree uh that was across the river and then i saw her going in and i just dove in after her wow and i mean i could have died myself yes but i would we both popped up over underneath that thing but i i know about root wad and i know people get trapped under this yeah the dreaded yeah dad has told us about it many times it was really scary i was but i for some reason we had to take two canoes and he's's like, you can do this. And I'm like, okay. I'm not a canoer. No, you should never do that ever.

I've never even paddled. I've always been the queen in the front. Never paddled. I have no. So in the end, though, this trip was fun. In the end, it was fun. I can't imagine enjoying any of it. It was okay.

What was your favorite part the food i guess yeah because i will be honest i i uh said the chef i'm eating what he's cooking whatever he's cooking and i ate oh and you got to eat some red meat again sausage oh shit my mom gave up red meat and chicken in january yes on my birthday on On her birthday in January 22nd. And so she's only eaten seafood since then. And she had a little sausage. I had some sausage. You gotta reward yourself.

Oh my God, my mom's been obsessed with deer meat. What? I'm gonna bag a deer or something. Because she thinks that if it's wild game, then she is allowed to eat it. Because it's really about factory farm. That's my whole thing Yeah So I'm allowed

I can respect that Yeah I respect it too Okay so Guess what it is What? It's called Someone eats game meat So anything game

Um Vegan Why? I don't know but You know Julie Wegan My mom's friend Is named Julie Wegan

So I'm gonna be another another Julie Wiegand. Julie Wiegand, not a vegan. I just don't think, you just eat cows. I don't want you having to eat a lesser meat that you don't like. No, deer meat's delicious. It is? Yeah, it can be. Isn't it like gamey and difficult to chew?

Yeah, but I can eat it. Okay. Avi and I have been watching Alone. Nikki, I know that you and Anya watch that show. Oh eat it. Okay. Avi and I have been watching Alone. Nikki, I know that you and Anya watch that show. Oh, yeah. Okay. And they're down to the last four guys living in austere conditions. And one of the guys is eating mice.

Oh, my God. And I'm just thinking, what would I force myself to eat if I'm stuck somewhere for 30 days and I don't even think I could do that. I think you would. I think you would. I think when you're starving, you'll eat fucking anything. Yeah. Mice would be a hard one.

Well, if you're not preparing it, if somebody else prepared it, I could eat it. Oh, yeah. If I don't have to look at how it was done. Well, that's how everyone gets by because if anyone had to actually kill these animals, they wouldn't eat any of them. That's right.

Yeah. But I do want to cite a moment. It was like a couple weeks ago. It was before we left for the Emmys. And you said you had manifested deer meat or something? Yeah. What happened? Well, we were down at the river.

And I was craving deer meat. I was like, I have to eat some kind of meat. Well, I was craving meat. I was like, I have to. Are you not getting enough protein? That's probably right. Or iron, maybe? Yeah.

Why don't you get some more protein? Yeah, I'm going to with some deer. Anyway, we went for a walk. He's like, how are you going to get deer meat?'m like because they don't you can't buy it yeah so we're walking up the street talking to our other neighbors and here comes our neighbor driving down heading out and he said does anybody want a piece of deer meat wow and i said what and he said i just cooked it on the grill i had to cook it and he had big chunks of tenderloin. And he said, I marinated it.

I'm just looking at your dad like, you've got to be kidding me. Like you had just been talking about it. You couldn't ask for a better piece of meat. Tenderloin, they're called the back straps. Okay, so did you say, oh my God, I was just talking about this. I said, you will not believe this. He said, well, here I am. Here you go. He didn will not believe this He said Well here I am Here you go

He didn't say care He didn't really I don't think he really And then my mom Told us this story When we were at Pasta House For my dad's show Right before we left

For the Emmys And she was like I can manifest now I manifested this dear me I can do it I'm doing your Emmy You're gonna win an Emmy Sorry

I didn't do it right That was the first thing You gotta really believe That your mom failed us Yeah I didn't do it right. That was the first thing you said to me. Your mom failed us. Yeah, I didn't do it right. I didn't manifest right. But they were serving deer meat at the after party. They did? No, of course not. They served it on the strip. What do you mean?

Deer meat on the strip that we just went on. Oh, yeah. How was it? What does it taste like? Well, he had scrapple or it's called deer scrap we had for breakfast i love that you just need the red meat you're like joe rogan i really need it just need i had a friend who was a nurse and she told me anytime your body is craving like a certain food satisfy that craving because it means that you are deficient yes vitamin that that thing has
