we're gonna examine some TikTok
0:57
makeup trends. Are they go?
1:00
Are they bad? Are they stupid? Are they acidine?
1:03
We don't know because we're also stupid.
1:06
But we're gonna try to unpack it and we're
1:09
gonna try to saying what's going on. We're gonna try
1:11
to see what's viral and what is made up
1:13
fake viral things that I made up to
1:16
try to trick this makeup artist. We
1:19
are a medical
1:21
professional coming in, Well she's
1:24
not coming in, she's actually on
1:26
video. We are
1:29
talking across
1:31
the pond to a
1:33
medical professional about skin. Skin
1:37
yeah, and some of the things that can go wrong,
1:40
very very wrong in fact, to the point where
1:42
it was absolutely upsetting.
1:46
We all saw on the agenda, hem
1:49
a baker.
1:52
There's what people do for stand up there, like comedian.
1:55
So what if I say for baker, we
1:57
have a bakerrette. We have a bake
1:59
stress coming into
2:01
this studio. We're
2:04
gonna do an in studio taste
2:06
test, what food test
2:10
of three different baked goods
2:12
and see which one is the best
2:14
and why. So that's kind of the lay
2:17
of the land. So buckle
2:19
up. What
2:25
world? Okay?
2:28
So Nova's a makeup artist to the
2:30
stars. First of all, we met two
2:33
dms. No, we did. It's
2:35
also how I met my husband. Yeah,
2:38
you know, I believe in it.
2:42
Now, first of all, thanks for coming on the podcast.
2:44
We're gonna look at some TikTok makeup
2:47
trends. I
2:49
brought some. I went through TikTok
2:51
and I looked at some of these trends and I was going to ask
2:53
you about them. You tell me if you think this is a real
2:55
trend or a fake trend, and describe what you think the
2:57
trend is. Okay, punking your
3:00
makeup?
3:01
Oh it sounds so stupid that I feel like
3:03
it has to be real. But okay,
3:07
cloud skin, I'm gonna go
3:10
no, only because I feel, oh
3:12
I'm wrong, it's real.
3:14
Cloud skin just means Matt wait
3:16
what it's just it means
3:19
like there's a lot of people predicting trends
3:21
beyond twenty, you know whatever. They're
3:24
like, what's next, and they're like, no more
3:27
dewey skin. Yeah, no more dewey skin. And
3:30
that's called cloud skin. It's not called clouds.
3:33
It is TikTok is wrong because
3:35
you think the clouds would be like sheer coverage like
3:38
that.
3:38
Or you'd think it would be dewey because they're
3:40
literally clouds are made out of dew
3:43
Yeah,
3:45
so cloud skin is real. Unapproachable
3:48
makeup. Oh that's real.
3:50
I know that's real, which just means
3:52
like like sexy makeup.
3:54
It's so stupid because the final look,
3:57
I was like, it just looks like absolutely nothing.
3:59
It's just make.
4:00
It's just well it's like a just a smoky
4:02
eye and like a like.
4:04
Literally you could wear it to the office. It made no sense,
4:07
like unapproachable. I was like, this is just
4:10
everyone's an ad man now, everyone's
4:12
just shilling product and
4:15
these look names are absolute proof
4:17
of that latte makeup. We're
4:19
doing that today. We're doing that today and it
4:21
is real.
4:22
Was that like a too soon of
4:24
a reveal?
4:25
No, I think it's a perfect time. Okay, perfect.
4:27
We're only about halfway through our list, So
4:29
latte makeup is what we landed on. Because
4:32
we have coffee cranking through our cysts
4:34
here at the podcast. We're a coffee
4:37
based podcast. We all
4:39
know that this is a podcast that rides
4:41
or dies for coffee and all
4:43
coffee derivatives. So
4:46
we landed on the latte makeup, which
4:48
how would you describe it? It's browned,
4:51
right, brown makeup, So
4:53
we're doing it. It's gonna look like a smeared
4:55
duty all over myself.
4:57
It is because it's like that kind of brown.
4:59
Yeah, okay, so no makeup makeup
5:01
of course, that was the original
5:03
dumb name for makeup, right, no makeup makeup,
5:05
which is like when guys are like, I don't
5:08
think girls with makeup, They're they're
5:10
liking no makeup makeup, Yeah,
5:12
idiots. Nineties lips
5:15
are back, yea brown liner,
5:17
nude lip gloss glass.
5:19
I am saying, like a resurgence of gloss, and I'm
5:21
so excited.
5:22
Loved glass remember lip glass mac Nightmare
5:25
but looked cool. There's shell awful.
5:27
Yeah yeah, and would always like explode
5:30
if I took it anywhere, like if
5:33
it goes on a flight, it is covering
5:35
and congealing everything in that bag.
5:37
Faux freckles. Do you do those? I can't.
5:39
What do you think about them? I
5:42
like them? I think they're cute.
5:45
I I struggle with like
5:47
for like a carpet, Say if I do them
5:49
dark enough for them to overpower
5:52
the like the crazy flash that's happening
5:54
on a carpet.
5:55
It's like theater makeup, you know, when
5:57
you're on stage. Theater makeups
6:00
on the back of the room, play.
6:02
To the back of the house. Listen. That was my calling
6:04
as a stand up. But yeah, like you
6:07
know a lot of like
6:09
theater stage makeup also looks insane
6:11
in person, but obviously if you're in a theater
6:14
space looks fine
6:16
in the audience. It's
6:18
all perspective. I guess that is what we're kind of trying
6:20
to get at all. Right,
6:22
So fluffy brows
6:24
are apparently on their way out, which thank goodness,
6:27
because I plucked mine
6:29
to the high heavens in the nineties.
6:31
I did too, and mine grew back somehow. Well
6:34
I want my back, and I you know, people
6:36
like cast No, you can get
6:38
you know, you can get a brow transplant. I
6:40
can't. I don't have it. Animation, I don't
6:43
have it. I barely have it in me to like just walk
6:45
my dog. Like, I can't get a brow transplant.
6:47
You just go to sleepwalls no
6:49
way, and then they'll be like ding, tiny
6:52
brows are in and I'm like, fuck, bald
6:55
on the back of my head with
6:59
fluff brows, and everyone's like, ew,
7:01
that's not what's tragedy. No,
7:05
my grandmother did though. Okay,
7:08
your redstine eye makeup was a big old
7:10
thing. Is that done now or I
7:12
feel like it's like still coming, still
7:14
raging? Okay, w blush,
7:17
that is very real. I call it sunburn blushed.
7:19
And you like that or not.
7:21
No.
7:21
I feel like if you do it too much, it just looks
7:23
like you're having an allergic reaction. But
7:27
if you do it like delicately, a little bit on the nose,
7:29
I think it's super cute.
7:30
The thing I really hate is when people treat
7:33
every face the same, yes, and they
7:35
do make up.
7:36
Artists who contour my nose how much. I'm like,
7:38
it's got shadow. Don't worry about that before.
7:42
But yeah, crying, Oh
7:44
my god, I can't believe this is going to turn into
7:46
an emotional revelation.
7:48
I you understand sarcasm, right,
7:51
I just I figured someone in
7:54
your.
7:54
Field of work would be able to get that. I'm
7:56
actually very gullible. Really
7:59
yeah, okay, wait, I'm still not done
8:01
here, So dog shit, make
8:04
that is? It's
8:06
an alternate name for what we're doing today.
8:08
Okay, okay, no that
8:10
is real. No it's not. Okay, yeah, it's fake.
8:13
I did make it up. Menstrual
8:15
glam,
8:19
that's vake. I
8:21
really believe it's real.
8:23
The fact that you weren't sure for so
8:25
long and trying to read my eyes is
8:28
such a testament to how far we've
8:31
fucking what do you call it?
8:33
Straight?
8:34
Yeah?
8:34
I mean menstrul glam.
8:37
Either you're using red tones
8:39
to conjure menstrual
8:42
fluids or I
8:44
mean, what else could it be? Menstrual glam
8:47
is just not Wow, you're
8:49
flushed.
8:50
I don't know. Okay, it's
8:52
fake, vanilla, madam,
8:56
I don't know it's
9:02
fake. Okay, all
9:04
right, that's enough. What have we learned there's
9:07
just anyone naming a trend
9:09
makes it a trend. I guess how many
9:11
followers do you need to to If
9:14
you name a trend, then it's real. Yeah,
9:18
it feels like that's kind of it.
9:20
This is outrageous. I cannot believe
9:22
this palette. She's a viral
9:25
TikToker. Of course she is.
9:27
The colors are like fart box and butt
9:29
trouble and
9:31
diarrhea and dingle well
9:33
played TikToker.
9:37
So I wore my brown shirt in
9:40
honor of this latte.
9:41
Look.
9:41
I love monochromatic clothes,
9:44
you know, like all browns and
9:46
yeah yeah, so to elevate
9:49
that to also make up, it's pretty
9:51
hardcore. All right, how's this latte
9:54
look coming along? This
9:57
is the real I look like Isabella
9:59
Rosselini. It's straight up good.
10:02
Something you would wear. I would, and
10:05
I think the shirt sells it. I think
10:07
without the shirt that would be it's
10:09
nothing. You'd be like, where's the makeup? And with
10:11
the shirt, it's like whoa, whoa,
10:14
whoa, whoa whoa A
10:16
lot of tame makeup. Yeah,
10:18
that's a lot of tame makeup. No, but thank
10:20
you. Okay,
10:25
Well that was pretty good. Right, I
10:27
think so. Tip

12:28
How are you?
12:30
My heart being on my chest like crazy?
12:32
What I heard.
12:34
Speaking on my chest like crazy? I've been trying to get a hold
12:36
of you. Yeah, I'm just a huge fan.
12:38
Oh my goodness. Well, welcome
12:42
you made it.
12:43
I did, Thank you.
12:45
Hold on, wait, I think there's a song that
12:51
speaks to our relationship. You wow,
13:01
unreal? Right, what
13:04
can I tell you? I'm taking calls kind of bridging
13:06
the gap between two guests on this episode.
13:09
One is a makeup artist, and
13:11
one is a dermatologist. If
13:13
you want to talk about your makeup routine, yeah,
13:16
if you want to talk about some skin issues
13:18
you may have had or an allergic reaction,
13:21
you'd be the perfect bridge.
13:24
Okay, go.
13:27
So I'd kind of like to switch up my beauty
13:30
routine. Last
13:32
month, I was using Kiels, which was great,
13:34
okay, and
13:37
I found a kind of the Ultra Sorry,
13:40
I'm kind of nervous.
13:41
Okay, take your time, hold on, hold on, let me give you some
13:43
soothing music. Ready,
13:45
okay,
13:49
go.
13:52
So yeah, so just help me.
13:54
So I used to use the Ultra repair cream
13:56
and then I found, after like a month
13:58
or so of my skin to kind of anuly
14:01
try.
14:02
Yeah.
14:03
And then I switched to a Korean
14:05
brand that my friend recommended me from
14:07
a Korean skin care to talk and
14:10
it's incredible. It's kind of changed my life.
14:13
I started off with as a one step carry
14:15
routine, and then I went to two steps and I'm
14:17
at five and my skin has completely
14:19
changed. I have glowing skin. It's amazing.
14:24
Yeah. And then.
14:32
I'm just trying to give hef to what you're
14:34
saying, give it a bit of mood. It's amazing. What
14:36
a soundtrack can do right to just change
14:38
what someone's saying in the whole entire mood of it.
14:41
Absolutely, and that's what I always one of my favorite
14:43
parts of your show. Like a printer and I
14:45
would draw up to the cabin a lottery in the pandemic.
14:48
He had the cabin up north of Minnesota, and
14:50
we would just listen to your podcast over and over
14:52
again, like the same twenty episodes, and
14:54
we'd have the friends right up with us.
14:56
It's insane at this moment has come
14:59
full circles.
15:00
Do you even see a skin issue? I can't remember. Oh no, you were
15:02
talking about your makeup routine. I used to use Keel's
15:04
body butter, but then I feel like Keel's has
15:06
lots of cords. I love that.
15:08
So if you get that body butter and then they have
15:11
like the actual lotion, the body butter is.
15:12
Amazing because that kind of well
15:14
the one you said though, though, when there's like yellow
15:17
and a little squirt.
15:17
Bottle that's tall, yes, like Crema cordz.
15:20
Yes, I used to use that, but then I
15:22
like, I got into this organic facial
15:25
lady and she basically
15:27
made me kind of turned off by products
15:29
with lots of chemicals in them.
15:30
I know, I really bad at that too. That fight, I kind of my
15:32
friend plushed me towards cream skincare because
15:35
it's really transparent about what they're
15:37
put in there. And I use this for a brand called Beauty
15:39
of Jossan. I highly recommend. I'm
15:41
a super super avoidable and
15:44
yeah, very transparent ingredients. And
15:46
yeah, I've always been really bad about looking at my
15:48
labels of what I put on my skin. And
15:51
yeah, after kind of having
15:54
bad reactions like you know, suwy dry skin or
15:56
rashes or whatnot, Well.
15:58
You know what I'm going to recommend to you. I've probably
16:00
said it before on the podcast and probably multiple
16:03
times, but Jennifer Aniston
16:05
once said it in an article, and I've been
16:07
a devotee ever since. You
16:10
want to know what it is or do you already know?
16:13
Wait?
16:13
Is that her?
16:14
I know she has a new like sampoo and sign.
16:18
I don't know.
16:19
Is it.
16:25
Egyptian Magic?
16:30
You got a brand?
16:31
Yeah, it's kind of like a little pot
16:33
of vasiline. It's
16:35
called Egyptian Magic. I
16:37
put it all over my face. I'm not
16:40
prone to breakouts. I
16:42
tend to have dry skin. You slather it on
16:45
at night wake up and your skin just looks
16:47
nice. I really love that.
16:49
It's like bag bomb, like you know what I mean, Like that little
16:52
kind of like gasline that comes like in a green ten kind
16:55
of like that like a all over cream
16:58
that you can put on your lips.
16:59
No, because that sounds like it's harder
17:02
and waxier. Balm makes me think
17:04
harder. This is like super soft
17:06
and you can rub it on your face and
17:08
it's like it's not like hard to rub
17:10
in or something. Also, I
17:12
love I sun products, all
17:15
organic, lots of oil based.
17:18
Okay, I.
17:21
S u n.
17:28
Anyhow, what a journey.
17:30
It's time to say goodbye.
17:34
It's time to say.
17:43
Hello my friend.
17:45
Hello, my friend. What
17:48
a skin condition?
17:51
Hello, my friend?
17:54
Ready to take notes? What's your skin condition?
17:58
Quickly?
17:58
Aging? Honey, honey,
18:01
honey, sit down, pull up
18:03
a chair, let's talk.
18:06
Remember when, well, you might not, Actually
18:08
you're old, you probably do. Do you remember
18:10
when everyone used to do movie phone impressions?
18:13
They were like, no rain,
18:16
movie phone, make your selection. It's
18:20
a by gone time. It
18:22
is a time. I love pretending to talk to you.
18:24
My skin carries the imprint of
18:27
movie phone impressions, like
18:30
my wrinkles hold The story
18:33
of a movie phone impression in bygone
18:35
times is when do I ask my question?
18:38
I guess now is a good time.
18:41
Hold on, okay,
18:50
questions?
18:52
How do I
18:55
retain my skin?
18:58
I'm in my late twenties.
19:00
Hold on, hold on, late
19:11
twenties, and you're trying to talk. I'm
19:13
commiserating with you about
19:15
fucking scanning. You're in your late
19:17
twenties. What my fucking
19:20
hell, upside down
19:22
world is this? How
19:24
dare you? Hey, hey, hey, hi? How
19:27
dare you?
19:30
I'm backwards?
19:30
I'm backwards with all helps.
19:32
And when people in their twenties talk to me about
19:34
their fucking wrinkled
19:36
trials and travails, this is me in my
19:38
head. You
19:41
don't know nothing until
19:44
you're in your forties, I
19:47
know, but I'd
19:50
say more so, I'm worried about getting skin cancer.
19:53
So other than.
19:56
You know, societal woes.
19:59
Telling me to worry about how I look, I think I
20:01
am more concerned about nice pivot.
20:04
Nice pivot,
20:08
because listen, who can get
20:10
mad about fearing skin cancer?
20:12
Right?
20:13
Yes, this is really this is about cancer.
20:15
Actually, it's very very.
20:18
Do you really taken us down
20:21
rude with your story.
20:26
That honestly, that button
20:28
has never been more propos.
20:31
I honestly, I'm often hesitant to
20:33
use a number of these buttons. That button just
20:35
hit the spot like a mola carbonora.
20:40
So what can I tell you about skin cancer? One
20:42
thing, I'm a survivor. I
20:44
had a chunk of it. Well, I had a
20:46
small blemish on my face that was cancerous, and I
20:48
had it removed and I now have a scar on my face. Feels
20:50
great, feels great. As an actor someone on
20:52
camera, it
20:55
sucks. What are you gonna do? What
20:57
are you gonna do? Part
21:00
of me really feels like though, would
21:02
it really have killed me if I just left it on?
21:04
Like?
21:04
And actually I think it was. It wasn't a melanoma,
21:07
but the kind it was. I said, what would have happened
21:09
if I just didn't treat it? Because you have to think
21:11
people who don't have like great
21:14
healthcare probably aren't finding
21:16
these kinds of things or identifying them.
21:19
And the dermatologist said it would turn into
21:21
a crater on
21:24
your face. Actually it's I guess
21:26
what, I don't know. Take take my chances.
21:30
Yeah, I'm going to take my chances.
21:32
No, it just makes me realize I should probably
21:34
go speak to my I have a dermatologist,
21:36
and that.
21:37
Is the goal of the
21:40
pod cast. Two new
21:44
dings, that one and
21:47
that one? Which ding do you prefer? This is
21:49
like, this is like a hearing test. Can
21:51
you hear this? Yeah? Can
21:54
you hear this?
21:56
Yes?
21:56
Did you hear that? I
21:58
kind of do you hear this? M No,
22:01
you're deaf. That
22:04
was a trick question. That was a trick. I didn't
22:06
actually ding anything. There's the two things
22:08
back and back. Okay, I've
22:11
actually been really cranking on coffee to
22:14
an extreme degree this morning.
22:17
Coffee coffee, coffee got
22:19
coffee crank and throom got
22:21
coffee crank, coffee
22:24
crank and through sisky and coffee.
22:29
Express.
22:30
It makes me want to listen to your your
22:33
platinum songs about
22:36
using the bathroom after a couple of
22:38
coffee.
22:40
Expresso Sorry
22:44
e a beautiful song that one.
22:47
Expresso
22:51
Express, Well, thank you.
22:55
So much, Expresso.
23:00
Say goodbye.
23:03
It's time to say bye.
23:09
We can't license my songs
23:11
that I want, so we got.
23:13
It's time to say goodbye.
23:18
It's time to say.
23:21
Honestly, it's gonna work. I
23:24
think it's pretty funny. Let's see what this one is actually.
23:26
I'll save it for the next caller. Anyhow,
23:32
tootle loop, thanks for calling, Thank
23:34
you, and God lets me a great week back
23:37
at you see
23:41
kinder, gentler, warmer.
23:44
It's time to say goodbye.
23:47
Honestly, pretty good time to say.
23:52
Now.
23:52
See that is a warmer way
23:54
to get off the phone, like you
23:56
can even sing along with it, like it's
23:59
time day the bar. Hello,
24:05
what's your skin condition?
24:07
Uh?
24:08
Fair?
24:09
Too moderate?
24:10
Oh oh what
24:12
fair to mat what? What? What?
24:15
Uh?
24:16
Combo?
24:17
Dry to oily?
24:18
But I have a medical horror story if you want to hear
24:20
it. Woo do
24:36
you want to hear it?
24:37
Of course?
24:41
Okay, So my partner
24:44
is well this this happened when she was
24:46
twenty six, but she was
24:48
misdiagnosed as uterine fibroids.
24:51
Turns out to be uterine cancer.
24:53
Oh my god.
24:55
So they didn't the doctors didn't do anything for
24:58
maybe like a year because they were like, oh,
25:01
it's not emergent, it's not cancer. Turns
25:04
out it was cancer.
25:07
Fucking nightmare.
25:09
Yeah, it was pretty horrible. She ended
25:11
up with thirty one pounds of tumors.
25:13
Oh my
25:16
god, that's
25:18
insane. So is she okay?
25:20
Now?
25:21
God? Please?
25:21
Yeah?
25:22
She beat it. I don't know what I would
25:24
say, if you're like, no, she passed this
25:26
past weekend, I'd be like,
25:28
eh, they
25:31
think they think, sorry, we're out of time. No, listen, that's
25:34
terrifying. I'm so scared of I.
25:37
Honestly, you do hear those stories, which
25:39
is what makes people be I
25:42
don't know if the word is hypochondriac or extra
25:45
vigilant, but it's like you do hear these stories
25:47
of like, yeah, the doctor said the lump in my breast
25:49
was nothing to worry about.
25:50
You know, yeah, exactly.
25:53
The doctors for so long were like
25:56
it was just getting like progressively worse.
25:58
It was like she was on her period. I had twenty
26:00
four hours a day, every single day of the week
26:03
for months, and.
26:03
Her doctor's like, you're good.
26:06
It's like doc, yeah, exactly.
26:07
You want to change my tampons for me because they
26:09
ain't changing themselves docking
26:12
room.
26:13
Yeah.
26:14
I tho to god, she must have gone through like
26:16
a pack of Maxi pads every day.
26:19
Good god, it's like cigarettes exactly
26:22
like that. She was essentially a change
26:25
chese smoker, but
26:28
a tamp stuffer.
26:30
Yeah, yeah, essentially, so she was. She was out
26:32
of work for a long time. She did
26:34
almost die.
26:35
Okay, you said that like it was a good thing.
26:38
You're like, no, No, she wasn't a good thing. Yeah,
26:41
but it did get her
26:43
into surgery faster, which she
26:45
was able to survive from that.
26:47
Listen, not for nothing. If I had
26:49
my period for twelve
26:51
days, I'd be in the er.
26:53
Yeah.
26:53
Yeah, she she flatlined during the surgery.
26:57
They brought her back. Oh
27:00
and then she now she's twenty
27:02
eight. She doesn't have a uterus,
27:05
she doesn't have a cervix, she
27:07
doesn't have filoppian tubes, she
27:09
has one ovary.
27:15
Sorry, I just as you were listing
27:17
that, I'm like imagining
27:20
hitting the laugh after each one of those, because it's almost
27:22
like you're holding for applause on each detail.
27:24
But it's so horrific, Jess.
27:28
You know, it's like the things that women go through.
27:30
I feel like our medical Maybe
27:34
I'm wrong, but it does feel like women's
27:36
medical issues are so complex.
27:38
And I
27:41
feel like I've heard that before, like men's medical
27:43
issues tend to come in their sixties or something,
27:45
whereas women, it feels like it's just a rampage
27:48
throughout all our stages of life.
27:50
Yeah, And the thing with uterine cancer
27:53
is that it's getting more common for like
27:56
the younger generation, everything
27:59
is menopause.
28:01
God, every fucking cancer is
28:03
getting more common for young
28:05
people. Colon cancer too. Yep,
28:08
honey, what do we do? What
28:11
do we do about this?
28:12
I have not a clue.
28:13
Stop single use plastic. Yeah,
28:16
maybe so is
28:18
what you said. This is your your wife
28:20
or your girlfriends.
28:22
This is my girlfriend. We're
28:24
not married, but we've been together for uh
28:27
it's like five years.
28:28
What about you? Enough about the old lady.
28:32
What's your deal? Any skin conditions?
28:35
Trying to steer you back to the topic. What about
28:38
you? Skin conditions like crazy
28:40
or what?
28:41
I have mild eggs on my
28:43
knuckles.
28:44
That's not going to cut it, honey, Yeah,
28:46
sorry, mild egg SMA
28:49
on my knuckles. What's
28:54
your makeup routine?
28:56
I haven't worn makeup in maybe like seven
28:58
years.
29:00
No, I'm just kidding, you know what. I respect
29:02
it, Honestly, I should give it up. I'm trying to give it
29:04
up for a lent or something. All
29:07
right, well, listen, I oh, listen
29:10
here we've gotten to the point. But I have a new song to
29:12
play.
29:13
Now let us say it.
29:14
Stray.
29:17
It's John for you, Go
29:20
Go goodbye.
29:26
Were you able to hear the lyrics.
29:28
Yeah, yeah, so I guess I should say goodbye.
29:31
Wait one more, thank
29:36
you for loving me.
29:40
Hello.
29:48
These are some songs that I heart had
29:50
access to. What do you think
29:53
pretty good?
29:55
Yeah?
29:55
I would say pretty good compared
29:59
to Tank, It's it's a heart.
30:00
It's a heart. It's a rough one to follow, absolute
30:04
inspired genius and.
30:10
Thank you for loving me.
30:14
Love. Let's
30:18
see. There's this one too, looking
30:20
for someone like you,
30:24
for somebody to Okay,
30:27
some of these are gonna work, though. I think like part
30:29
of the struggle of this podcast
30:31
is part of the charm. I'm hoping and
30:34
having struggling music. No no
30:36
disrespect to these artists, because my god,
30:38
incredible work, but
30:41
having struggled music is
30:44
kind of fits the show, you know.
30:46
Yeah.
30:46
The last one kind of reminded me of the I
30:49
don't know if you remember the song
30:51
you you demonstrated that was like,
30:54
uh, the elevator song. It's
30:56
like welcome home, my friend, you're on
30:58
the fifteenth floor.
31:00
You seem like a real You're gonna get sorry
31:04
yep, just checking all my buttons still work. I
31:06
don't know what you're talking about, but I do feel like there's
31:08
that energy shift I need to make happen
31:11
right now. I want to say thank you for sharing your
31:14
ultimately your girlfriend's story
31:16
with me. I'm glad she's
31:18
in good health.
31:19
Now it's
31:24
time to say good bye.
31:28
It's time to say.
31:35
It's time to say good bye.
31:39
It's time to say
31:43
hello.
31:44
Hi.
31:45
Is this Chelsea?
31:46
It is.
31:48
Hi.
31:49
I have a couple of food test
31:51
options for you, if you're amenable.
31:52
Okay, great, I am amenable.
31:55
One.
31:55
Let me get my ding ready.
31:58
So the theme would be savory
32:01
items are arguably savory items
32:03
as dessert items, So using
32:05
tahini in a dessert.
32:07
Oh, actually, I jumped the gun. I
32:13
thought you were gonna say, like sweet
32:15
hummus, which for me is a no.
32:18
I'm gonna add that to the list.
32:19
Do that? Does that exist?
32:21
Sweet hummus? Yes, people
32:24
do chocolate hummus, honey.
32:26
Okay,
32:30
so sweet hummus, and people do savory
32:33
oatmeal that.
32:34
I had a friend in college who would do
32:37
like with chicken stock and
32:39
that seemed dron to me.
32:43
Okay, you're right, you're
32:45
right about that. Okay, So what is
32:48
your okay? Now? Tahini.
32:51
I have had a number of places
32:53
in La do chocolate chip cookies
32:55
with tahini in it. I don't taste the tahini,
32:57
but the cookies themselves are magical. So I'm
32:59
gonna say tahini is good
33:02
in desserts.
33:04
Okay, great, I'll say correct. So
33:06
the next would be olive
33:09
oil or chili crisp
33:11
on top of ice cream.
33:15
That's okay, what do you think
33:17
you like chili crisp?
33:19
I I've had. I've
33:21
had olive oil on top of ice cream before, and
33:23
it was good. But there was some
33:25
place in San Francisco that did it.
33:27
I can see that the ice cream.
33:30
The chili crisp I see advertised everywhere,
33:32
and I'm just not sure.
33:34
You see chili crisp advertised
33:36
everywhere for being on ice
33:38
cream? Where do you live? Cuckoo Banana
33:41
Town? Cuckoo
33:47
Banana Town, guys, All
33:49
right, but of
33:53
course, I mean
33:55
I would try it, like, don't get me wrong, I'll
33:58
try most things, but I don't
34:00
have high hopes for chilling crowls from Mr.
34:03
Fair Enough, fair enough, okay. So my last one
34:06
is probably most controversial,
34:08
which is fois gras as
34:10
a dessert.
34:12
Don't put me in this hot seat, sister, Don't
34:14
you dare put me in this hot seed.
34:22
I can't believe these songs. So there's
34:25
one that I don't know what these there's a couple songs
34:27
I don't know what they are, but these songs are pretty funny.
34:31
It's so funny. What is like, I
34:33
don't know what's licensable? And like,
34:36
imagine you made that song and then you just hear
34:38
yourself on this podcast, Like what a weird
34:41
journey. Sometimes
34:43
I think copyrights and all that, like, I know they
34:45
protect us, and this is probably a stupid thing
34:47
to say, but sometimes I'm like, God, imagine like
34:50
making art before all this, like when
34:53
you could just be so inspired by each other
34:56
and just make shit and do it. And you
34:58
know, there's so much red tape now with everything.
35:02
I don't know. The flow of it
35:04
all is very like stagnated
35:06
by it all. All right, Hello,
35:12
what's your skin issue?
35:13
Oh? I used that psoriasis?
35:16
Oh?
35:38
How was it?
35:41
It sucked? It was weird. It
35:43
was like really bad for like
35:45
five years and then it just went away.
35:48
That's strange. Did you make a dietary change?
35:51
I don't know. It was
35:53
like from twenty oh seven to twenty twelve
35:55
and then it just stopped. It just went away
35:57
in a matter of a couple of weeks or a couple,
36:01
and I still get like occasional
36:03
like flare ups. I see a germantologists every so
36:05
often, but.
36:08
Occasional flaps.
36:11
It's gone, yeah
36:14
yeah, but super controllable. No one can even
36:16
tell. It's so minor.
36:19
Question. I don't remember
36:21
the symptoms of siasis. Is it like redness
36:24
or is that rosesia?
36:25
I think it's rasesia. No, likerisis
36:28
is like you get like almost
36:30
like scab, like dry scabby.
36:33
Let me write that down, and
36:36
it could crack and sometimes it can bleed
36:39
crack. It's not fun.
36:41
Okay, So my notes it says dry scab,
36:44
crack, bleed, ry scab bleed.
36:47
Okay, so that is SISIs.
36:51
I can't believe it just came and went like that. I
36:53
have to believe it was. Can it be triggered?
36:56
Now I'm no doctor. I will have a skin
36:58
doctor on this
37:00
episode. But but but that's
37:02
wonderful, thank you so much. But
37:04
but but what I think is
37:07
could it be caused by like a detergent
37:10
or a food and you just change it?
37:12
Yes, it can. So.
37:15
So the doctors that I remember
37:18
many years back there we're like, okay, you need to eat
37:20
these foods these like sugars could trigger
37:22
it. Stress is very known to trigger it.
37:26
What else, like, yeah, detergents I used to have
37:29
used to have to use like sensitive skin
37:31
soaps. Oh, apparently
37:33
lufahs are the devil if
37:35
you have any dry skin issues, like
37:38
you should never use a loofah. So I stopped using
37:40
lucid.
37:40
Then counterintuitive, isn't
37:42
it?
37:43
It is?
37:43
Yeah, I really want to scrub all
37:45
that ship off and start fresh. And then so
37:48
what does a loofah do if you have.
37:52
It? Scratches your skin and then it exposes
37:54
it more to have more of a propensity
37:56
to to make it spread.
38:00
Ah, well, well
38:05
so that's weird. You don't really have a solution
38:07
for the listener who may have Surisis
38:10
it's just absolutely out of your control? Is
38:12
the message?
38:14
There?
38:14
There are great medications. There's like these
38:17
biologics, I think that's what they're called. They're
38:19
like injectable. There's
38:22
also like laser treatment. There's also topicals.
38:25
There are no no,
38:27
I didn't do any of that, but but that's what exists.
38:29
I know.
38:30
But you know, I'm really I think you're
38:32
presenting me with a bit of a head scratch. I'm
38:34
trying to find out.
38:35
I don't.
38:36
I didn't have to use any of that. It just went away.
38:38
I know.
38:39
I'm just saying, why did it go away? If
38:41
I'm you, I'm like, I need answers.
38:44
Why was it here for five years?
38:45
Why to go away?
38:46
I asked my dermatologists that many
38:49
times and they don't know. They
38:51
just don't know. They tried
38:54
to get me on.
38:55
I know, I know that was so
38:58
od I actually had to band
39:00
in the button I could have. First it
39:02
was so quiet, and then I asked for it
39:05
to be a little louder, and all of a sudden it was the
39:07
loudest boo I've ever heard anyhow
39:10
Well, listen, thanks for calling in. Sorry
39:12
about your psiasis situation, but
39:15
happy about that miracle disappearance.
39:18
Yeah, as I might. And thanks for coming back to
39:20
the pod.
39:21
Thank you. Oh
39:28
lot's like out of time. Goodbye. All
39:31
right, that's the end of the
39:33
calls. We have special
39:35
guests on this episode.
39:39
What do I know about skin? What do I know about
39:41
why someone has scaly knuckles
39:43
or five years of you
39:46
know, cysts or whatever it is. I'm
39:49
not a doctor, not a doctor, but
39:53
someone else is someone
39:55
who happens to have agreed to
39:57
be on this shell. Ladies
40:00
and gentlemen, please welcome your
40:03
next segment.
40:05
Oh my goodness,
40:11
doctor Emma free
40:14
Thorne.
40:14
Am I seeing that correctly?
40:16
Yeah?
40:17
Perfect?
40:17
Perfect? Sometimes I get called like all
40:20
kinds of names, but you've got that spot.
40:21
On I okay.
40:24
First of all, thank you so much for
40:26
doing the podcast. I've
40:30
been Okay, me and my husband have
40:32
watched Save My Skin, your
40:35
series on TLC. Wait,
40:38
how many seasons do you have? Like six?
40:40
Yeah, so you will have had five series
40:43
so far, but there is a six
40:45
series that's we've just in fact, we've
40:47
finished filming it this weekend, so
40:50
yeah, so we we we have yet to see
40:52
it. I think it will go out in the UK
40:55
in January and then you get it in April.
40:57
So yeah, that'll be your season six.
40:59
So see my Skin.
41:01
Okay, So we started by watching
41:03
this other series that
41:06
was about brains and emergency
41:09
rooms and then Save my Skin kind
41:11
of.
41:12
I don't know how we happened upon it, but or
41:14
maybe someone told me. I can't remember, but
41:16
we're like, okay, let's watch this Save
41:19
my Skin. Honestly, And I
41:21
was describing it at a stand up show the other night
41:23
and people were screaming no,
41:27
no. I should play that clip
41:29
here actually of people screaming no when I was describing
41:33
the show.
41:45
It's so hard to be alone with it. Okay,
41:49
I won't say the demails. I'm just gonna vaguely
41:51
say that the textures.
42:00
Basically, you are taking people
42:03
with extreme skin problems.
42:05
There was a woman that comes to mind with
42:09
absesses under her armpits
42:11
that wouldn't heal. There's a
42:13
man with these huge kind of bumps
42:16
on his back that you were cutting open,
42:18
and it was like going on a roller coaster
42:20
to watch your show. Me and my husband are actually
42:23
screaming at the top of our lungs during
42:26
some of the procedures that you were doing, and
42:28
literally hiding under our blankets
42:31
from trying to tap out
42:33
from watching some of these things. I will
42:36
say, you have a proclivity for describing
42:38
the smell of things that you're excising,
42:41
and I'm like, you are demonic. Why
42:44
I was like, she is psychotic? I was telling my
42:47
husband, why is she describing the smell you
42:50
described it?
42:51
Secretly wanted to know, Oh.
42:53
My god, it definitely adds to it. I will say,
42:55
it was just like the exhilaration and
42:57
screaming. I was like, oh, I can kind of see maybe
43:00
why people like this in horror movies.
43:02
Now is your show, Are we seeing
43:04
like the top five percent
43:06
of extreme cases
43:09
or is this a typical day for you?
43:11
So it's a bit. So these patients
43:14
are the kind of typical patients that I would see day
43:16
to day. So I work at the Saint John's
43:18
Institute of Dermatology, which is you
43:20
know, it's the biggest center in Europe
43:23
really for dermatology and it's based
43:25
in London, so I see a lot
43:27
of kind of tertiary
43:30
specialist cases anyway, So
43:32
these are the typical kind of things that we
43:35
would see. And the people who
43:37
come on the show are people
43:39
who have applied to be on the show,
43:41
so they are somewhere
43:44
else in the country or actually somewhere in the world.
43:46
We get people come from all over who
43:48
send in a photograph and just simply say,
43:50
you know, please, can I get some help because they're
43:52
not getting help where they are locally.
43:55
So yes, it's similar to
43:57
what I would see in my day to day because
44:01
it's outside my own catchment
44:03
area of say London. Then
44:05
you're seeing bigger and greater things
44:07
as well.
44:08
Yeah, I feel like there was some people.
44:11
I mean, there was a couple different people who had lumps
44:13
all over their entire body. I don't know if they were
44:15
the same. One guy had lipomas, which
44:17
I actually have some in my arms, and I was like, now,
44:20
I'm like, should I get this out because my doctor said
44:22
no, But I don't want it to be this big and leave
44:24
a scar. But I guess most of them don't
44:26
grow.
44:27
He said, most of them don't grow.
44:30
But it's hard to predict which ones are going to
44:32
grow. So if they are growing,
44:34
you typically can you realize
44:36
that they're getting bigger. And so if you've got one that's growing,
44:39
then I would just say, then's the time to get
44:41
it done. But most people will just have one and it
44:43
doesn't do anything at all.
44:45
Yeah, but that one guy just had massive
44:47
ones all over his entire body and
44:49
it's like crazy or you're like having to remove
44:51
a couple at a time. Is that because
44:54
of wound care being too challenging?
44:57
If you like you can't just go in
44:59
and take them all.
44:59
Out, Yeah, you can take them all out
45:01
because it's yeah, it's too many, you know,
45:04
areas of infection and for healing. It's
45:06
okay, probably to take you know, six, seven,
45:08
eight, I mean I think the most have taken out
45:10
in one go has been around about
45:13
thirty because there were small ones
45:16
with the record of seven seconds. I mean
45:18
that's what games. You then start to plays like hwe
45:20
quickly, can I get out of this live Homer? Okay,
45:23
start the timer seven seconds?
45:26
You really love your job? Oh
45:29
yeah, which really
45:31
comes through And I do think it's part of
45:33
why the show is also so
45:35
fun to watch, because you are like literally
45:39
and figuratively into digging
45:41
in and figuring out what you can.
45:43
Do, and.
45:44
Yeah, we try and as two.
45:47
So each episode has four stories,
45:50
and there are two of them we call
45:53
gorries where you're hiding
45:55
okay, and two of
45:57
them are stories where it
46:00
takes you on the journey of the patient so that
46:02
you can kind of understand a little bit
46:04
what it's like to have a skin disease and the challenges
46:06
that it faces. And then obviously
46:08
I have to get my thinking hat on to try
46:11
and work out what is wrong with this person,
46:13
what treatments have we got available, how
46:15
can we make them better?
46:16
So if we did, if
46:18
you did four gorries, you might lose
46:20
all your viewers. Exactly,
46:23
because they'd just be hiding under a blanket
46:26
and just be like, I can't take it. They'd have to tap
46:28
out. But you seem
46:30
to have an infinite capacity for the gorries.
46:33
You could do that all day long.
46:35
All day long. I mean, that's
46:37
really fun.
46:39
I guess you have to also have a camera crew
46:41
that isn't squeamish, right,
46:43
because I'm sure there's people who would literally throw
46:45
up from some of the stuff the gorris.
46:48
I mean, yes, but it's more fun whenever they are
46:50
squeamish and they have to keep filming, Like,
46:53
do.
46:53
You have a camera person or anyone
46:55
in your crew who's like, I can't look
46:57
at this? And you know, you described
47:00
that guy's back boils as smelling
47:02
like scrambled eggs, and I was just like, I
47:05
cannot. It's so
47:08
visceral to think that this
47:10
man is packing around scrambled
47:12
eggs scented and it looked
47:15
like scrambled eggs. Yeah, they
47:17
all look.
47:18
So different and they all smell so different. So
47:20
the one actually just was
47:22
filming just last weekend as well, and
47:25
the one last weekend was absolutely wonderful.
47:27
It was a cyst that she had on her jaw
47:30
and she'd had it for twelve years, so normally
47:32
by twelve years, I was thinking it's going to be
47:34
really degraded and this, you know, that very
47:37
yellow week kind of brown color that comes out
47:39
of it. But it wasn't at all, you know. I went
47:41
into it and it was pure white.
47:44
It was like cram fresh, absolutely
47:46
gorgeous, beautiful white, just coming
47:48
out.
47:49
Did you spread it on a cracker and put a
47:51
little cavia on top?
47:53
To be honest, she could have done and probably not
47:55
really noticed the difference.
47:57
It really looked like cram fresh.
48:00
It did. It's not like it as well.
48:02
Oh god, you should have a
48:04
cooking show combined with your show.
48:07
You'll like that one when you see it, because it comes
48:09
out. And then because it was so big, I
48:11
needed to get the contents off at it so it could just
48:13
be the small scar. And then I very
48:16
carefully dissected the sack out and I
48:18
lifted the sack up and I said,
48:20
do you want to see it? And just said yes, of
48:22
course. So I showed it to her and then laid
48:24
it down and Matty, who's my nursey you'll
48:26
have seen on it? We both looked at each other. We're like it
48:29
just looks like a condom.
48:31
Oh my gosh, wait
48:34
a minute, you'll see that.
48:35
That was Another question is why
48:38
do you Because I've noticed that as well, you ask
48:40
patients do you want to see it? What is that about?
48:43
Because they all want to. Very
48:45
rarely would you get somebody who doesn't want to.
48:48
They really just are quite
48:51
intrigued to find out what was inside
48:53
them. It's a bit I think like the unboxing
48:56
videos you know that kids love to watch
48:58
on YouTube where they see what is inside hinder
49:00
egg. And it's a little bit like that.
49:02
You really just want to.
49:04
What's inside is not a presence
49:06
or anything you want. It's
49:09
like the boxing video.
49:11
And then have you ever seen anything caused
49:13
by makeup? Anything terrible
49:15
that was caused by makeup?
49:17
I mean not terrible. However, there
49:19
are lots and lots of people, there's you know, lots of
49:21
trends at the minute, especially on social media.
49:23
There are we're discussing them on this
49:26
episode.
49:27
Okay, so you know, get ready, get
49:29
ready with me and all of you
49:31
know this kind of thing. And when you think about
49:33
every single piece of makeup
49:35
is essentially just a bunch of chemicals, that's
49:37
all it is. And each time you put the chemicals
49:40
on your face, you're essentially,
49:42
for some people, introducing an irritant
49:45
dermatitis. In other words, you can
49:47
make the skin go red and itchy,
49:49
or an allergic dermatitis, in
49:51
which case you can develop blisters and
49:53
you know, red rashes. So makeup
49:56
can cause those two things. One
49:58
of the other things that make up and all of these
50:00
other cosmetics that a lot of people will use,
50:02
are that and the preservatives and
50:04
other things that are within it can actually cause
50:07
a condition called Perry oral dermatitis,
50:09
where you develop what looks like acne,
50:11
but around the nose and around the mouth.
50:14
And we're just seeing so many
50:16
cases of that over like the last three years.
50:18
You know, when I started off in dermatology about
50:21
twenty years ago, I would maybe see one
50:23
clinic, one person in my clinic
50:25
every week. I easily see three
50:28
times every day. Now it is
50:31
there's so.
50:32
And are they all TikTokers?
50:34
They're all kind of twenty thirty
50:36
early forty year old. Yet that's the demographic
50:39
of it. We were just saying, loads.
50:41
Have you ever cut something open? And then there a bunch
50:43
of baby spiders run out.
50:45
That hasn't happened yet.
50:47
Would you be prepared to know what to do? Like,
50:49
would you ever go this seems like a spider
50:52
sack of baby spiders?
50:55
I've had a fly. So there
50:58
was a woman who came to our skin
51:00
cancer screening clinic and
51:03
she she had a love and they sort of a skin
51:05
cancer. So and it was sent to me. It's like, it doesn't look like
51:07
a skin cancer. But I cut into it and it
51:09
was a buttfly and the butt fly had laid
51:11
the larvae inside. So I've
51:13
had that.
51:14
Where was she living that this happened? Could
51:16
this happen anyway? You know in the
51:18
UK?
51:18
Yeah, in the UK, it can happen anywhere.
51:20
Yeah.
51:21
Yeah, So so that happened to
51:23
her and then.
51:25
Oh my god, woa
51:30
Okay, so that is upsetting.
51:32
All right? Wait, have you ever dealt with like snake
51:34
bites?
51:35
No?
51:35
I haven't. We don't really have Well we do have snakes
51:38
in the United Kingdom, but they're not it's only one type
51:40
and it's not really a poisonous snake.
51:42
So so no.
51:45
What about jellyfish?
51:46
Jellyfish, Yes, lots of jellyfish,
51:49
but there's there's not too much you can
51:51
do. So the trick with jellyfish things
51:53
are that you just pour hot water onto
51:55
the area, right you try
51:57
not to pat it, but you just put hot
51:59
hot is the water you can get to tolerate it.
52:02
You pour that on to kill the little nematodes,
52:05
and you don't pat it, you don't
52:07
pay on it. There, that's not a thing that really
52:09
does work.
52:11
That.
52:11
That's the trick with jelly and then you just have to deal with
52:13
it.
52:16
What else? What else horrific
52:18
can I think of? I
52:20
mean, there was there is some increase right
52:22
now, and like from
52:24
lakes if you inhale water or
52:26
something that you can get that necrotic
52:29
skin or something, isn't it.
52:32
I didn't do that one.
52:34
We were really off the rails because I'm
52:37
just like, isn't there something with uh water
52:39
and rotting skin?
52:42
I don't know. You know, listen, I
52:44
feel like I've I've wasted enough of your
52:46
time with my stupid podcast. But
52:49
no, I highly recommend
52:52
to the listener to go watch this show
52:54
and scream with someone because it's it's
52:56
like being It really has been like on a roller coaster.
52:58
It was exhilarating. And
53:02
anyhow, well, thank you so much for
53:04
coming onto the show and
53:07
and thanks for the entertainment.
53:09
Yeah, thank you so much for asking me to come along.
53:11
I'm so glad that you enjoyed the show as well.
53:13
That's my day.
53:14
It's really fun. It's it's horrific
53:17
and fun. All right.
53:19
Well, thanks take care of them.
53:21
Okay, bye, little
53:28
little lemon based desserts. What do you think?
53:31
Hell? Lemon based?
53:33
Hello?
53:36
Oh?
53:36
I love them, huge advocate.
53:39
I actually ate one today.
53:40
What was it?
53:42
It was a cupcake and
53:45
it had like a raspberry
53:47
filling and like you
53:50
could tell they had a blow torch on
53:53
the frosting.
53:54
I love a lemon dessert. I love lemon and pretty
53:56
much everything, to the point where I actually have googled
53:59
if it's like a sign of a deficiency
54:01
or something like do I have scurvy?
54:03
Why do I want to eat lemon peel in
54:05
both savory and sweet dishes? And all
54:08
the time. I can only say that, like, as
54:11
life is so challenging sometimes
54:13
and as you get older,
54:16
you just want more excitement. I feel like spicy
54:18
food like seshuan numbing spice. Lemon
54:21
is so bright and like sunshiny,
54:24
and I just want like these.
54:27
I feel like eating lemon is like a physical
54:30
and mental lift.
54:33
Okay, I mean, I
54:35
don't even I don't crave it like that, so
54:38
I can't super relate. But
54:41
maybe there is a problem with you.
54:43
It's
54:46
time to say bad.
54:50
I just need someone
54:53
who gets it.
54:57
Like garlic. Also, I could eat like fifteen
55:00
clothes of garlic and pretty much any
55:02
dish, you know, any recipe, it's like two clothes
55:04
of garlic. I was actually
55:07
laughing in the pandemic, like in the
55:09
beginning of it, when everyone's doing home cooking
55:11
videos. Malin Ackerman actually did
55:13
one where she made lentils.
55:17
Hi do
55:19
you love lemon? Is it everything you
55:21
could ever want?
55:22
In?
55:25
Hello?
55:27
Hi?
55:28
Do you love lemon?
55:29
Yeah? I love lemon. Yeah,
55:44
thank you, thank you.
55:45
Thank you, thank you, thank you speech
55:48
speech.
55:49
Yeah. No, I love lemon
55:52
moraine pie. That's that's one of
55:55
my favorite lemon desserts.
55:58
Yeah. When I was a kid and
56:01
super Kmart used to exist, my
56:03
mom would always buy me a piece
56:05
of lemon pie and it was like my favorite thing.
56:23
Thank you. Well,
56:26
what about you? What's what's your favorite lemon
56:29
dessert?
56:30
It's hard to choose. I mean, I love
56:33
like I
56:36
would probably like, I don't know what my favorite
56:38
is because I think I love all lemon, but lemon cake
56:41
I really do love now.
56:44
You know, not many people know this,
56:46
but Greg Daniels when
56:48
I used to I used to write for Parks
56:50
and rec. Greg Daniels
56:53
was a producer of Parks and Rec and he would
56:55
send one every Christmas, a lemon cake. I
56:58
loved it. I thought it was the best
57:00
Christmas present you could ever send to a person.
57:02
It was so lemony, came in a little
57:04
tin, and I looked forward
57:06
to it was such a delightful treat.
57:09
Every year. I
57:11
used to make a lemon cake with my stepmother
57:13
growing up. You take a box of yellow
57:15
cake, you add a packet of lemon jello
57:17
to it, and then you make a little glaze with
57:20
lemon and powdered sugar and put it over the top. That
57:22
was also delicious. Cool,
57:25
Thank you, thank you.
57:29
I love lemon pasta. There's a place in New
57:31
York, Little Frankies, that has
57:33
a lemon spaghetti lemone that I think
57:35
is absolutely incredible. Okay,
57:41
whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa? What's up with the judgment?
57:45
No judgment, just never tried it,
57:47
so you know, it's just
57:49
gotta think about it.
57:52
Well, it's really good. It is really
57:54
really good, and it's just basically pasta with
57:56
tons of lemon, lemon, zest, parmesan,
57:59
black pepper, olive butter.
58:02
You know, I honestly, when I cook, I don't use
58:04
a ton of butter because I think
58:06
olive oil does the trick a lot of times. But
58:08
this pasta is so good, and when I was recently
58:11
in New York, I went and got it, and let me tell
58:13
you, it holds
58:17
delicious. Well.
58:21
Anyhow, I do love lemon, savory
58:23
and sweet. I'm looking for someone who loves
58:26
it. I mean, you sound like you're getting there. You're
58:28
getting closer to what I was looking for. But I
58:30
need someone where it's like almost like why
58:33
am I so obsessed with
58:35
lemon? I am sick?
58:38
You know, it's that kind of desire
58:40
for lemon.
58:41
Yeah, yeah, no, I love it.
58:43
I just I just kind of pressed it, yeah
58:46
the way. Yeah, I'm sorry.
58:48
Well, you should look up like a recipe for spaghetti
58:50
lemone online and try to make it,
58:52
because actually it's also something that's so easy to
58:54
make. All you need is pasta, butter, lemon,
58:58
you know, salt, black pepper, maybe a little
59:00
parmesan. But I'd tell you what on
59:03
a on a little work night. Whip
59:05
that up. You'll be happier than
59:08
a.
59:08
Clean Yeah, yeah, yeah,
59:10
yeah. You know what when
59:13
when I was a kid, do you remember the easy
59:15
bake oven?
59:16
Yeah?
59:17
I never had one, but I do. Of course I wasn't
59:19
aware of them.
59:20
Uh huh, Well, my older sister
59:22
had one, and and uh we'd
59:25
buy the lemon cake mix. We just make
59:27
it at home. We'd
59:30
make them in the little easy bake oven and
59:32
then just like decorate them.
59:33
And now see that sounds delicious.
59:35
The cakes or whatever. And then we
59:37
would go knocking from door to door and
59:40
sell the little cakes for like a buck eat and
59:42
we would go back home with some with some cash.
59:44
Enterprising.
59:46
You could do that today, all
59:48
on lemon, all on lemon cake.
59:50
Yeah, you can get it for you do it for a little
59:52
lemon lemon cake money, then you can
59:54
get twice the cake. The thing
59:56
is like, actually I've said this before,
59:59
but lemon box like any
1:00:01
box cake, is pretty much
1:00:03
delicious in my opinion.
1:00:04
Yeah, yeah, no, for sure.
1:00:07
Anyhow well, listen,
1:00:09
it feels good to talk to someone
1:00:12
who knows what I'm talking about. Some people don't like lemon.
1:00:14
They think it tastes like soap or something. You know.
1:00:16
Yeah, yeah, it's like it's like cilantro Cilantro's
1:00:19
I don't know why people like it. Some people say it tastes
1:00:21
like soap.
1:00:21
I know, and I love Cilantro, but I can't
1:00:23
imagine, like, you know, I guess it is
1:00:25
supposedly genetic, but seems a little suspect,
1:00:28
doesn't it.
1:00:29
Yeah, they're genetic suck or something.
1:00:32
Is that like only amongst white people or are
1:00:34
there people who are like grew up
1:00:36
their whole family eats cilantro all the time and they
1:00:39
have that genetic thing.
1:00:41
I don't. I don't know.
1:00:42
I need answers and
1:00:45
I may never get there.
1:00:47
Maybe. Yeah, well I'm partially
1:00:49
Mexican, so maybe that's why
1:00:52
that's why I like Cilantro so much. On everything,
1:00:55
as you know, also hot sauces
1:00:57
and stuff.
1:00:58
What's your favorite hot sauce?
1:01:01
My favorite hot sauce is
1:01:03
uh? Is
1:01:05
there anything habernaro? Maybe? A
1:01:08
uh not? Maybe for sure a
1:01:10
green salsa?
1:01:11
Have you had the habannaro
1:01:13
tabasco?
1:01:15
Yeah, we have it right here, it's right
1:01:17
in front of me.
1:01:18
Delicious, But have you noticed that the
1:01:20
calories on it are so much higher
1:01:22
than the other Tabasco or Sodia.
1:01:24
I've never done any calorie counts when it comes
1:01:26
to hot sauce. Is I just I just.
1:01:29
Well it doesn't It does
1:01:31
sound crazy when you put it like that. I'm like, I'm
1:01:33
constantly cal counting on my salsas.
1:01:36
But I will say I love
1:01:38
that green one, and then one day I can't remember
1:01:40
for the calories or if it
1:01:42
was the sodium something on.
1:01:45
That is really different from the regular, the
1:01:47
red Tabasco. But here's my question
1:01:49
to you. Do you
1:01:52
like Frank's Red Hot or Tabasco
1:01:54
better?
1:01:55
Oh? Man, I do like both,
1:01:57
but better. I'd say Tabasco. I just
1:01:59
I like, I like vinegar stuff.
1:02:01
Frank's is more vinegary. Yeah yeah
1:02:03
wait really yeah? What about Crystal
1:02:06
Crystal versus Tabasco.
1:02:08
Crystal versus Sabasco.
1:02:10
Yeah you know Louisiana Crystal.
1:02:12
Oh yeah yeah no still
1:02:14
Tabasco.
1:02:14
Oh whoa, whoa, You're a complete Tabasco
1:02:17
head. This is a complete
1:02:19
shock because they to me, Tabasco
1:02:21
is not that vinegary. The
1:02:24
most vinegary one I think
1:02:26
is like Frank's and Crystal. Anyway,
1:02:28
listen, you know what, You're right, Yeah, you're right.
1:02:31
Listen, don't tell me I'm right. They're gonna be like this white
1:02:33
girl's telling him about sauce, So what
1:02:36
the fuck does she know? And hot sauce?
1:02:38
Blah blah blah. Listen, Just tell me I'm wrong,
1:02:40
tell me I'm stupid, tell me I'm
1:02:42
white. Let's call it a day. No, I
1:02:44
don't know anything, thank you.
1:02:47
I deserve that women's
1:02:51
stupid woman's stupid white person.
1:02:55
All right, Well, anyway, listen, this call has
1:02:58
been informative. You
1:03:01
may the lemon be with you. Oh let
1:03:03
me, and it's.
1:03:04
Time to say goodbye.
1:03:08
It's time to say bye.
1:03:13
All right, still
1:03:16
seeking that person who's as lemon crazed
1:03:18
as I am with lemon, lemon,
1:03:23
lemon drops in your eyeballs. I was trying
1:03:25
to think of like lemon. You're like imagining a lemon
1:03:27
shape as a pupil. That's me. If
1:03:30
you can photoshop lemons into
1:03:32
my pupils, send
1:03:36
it my way, because that is me to
1:03:39
a tea. We have a special
1:03:41
guest today all the way from oh Hi,
1:03:45
and she is baking up some
1:03:47
lemone treats, So
1:03:50
buckle up. Wow, family,
1:03:53
So Emily all
1:03:57
ben okay,
1:04:01
So I don't even know did we meet an
1:04:03
O, Hi, No, No, I just
1:04:05
know because this happens to me all the time. I follow people
1:04:07
on Instagram and then I feel like we have
1:04:10
met and we're friends.
1:04:11
Yeah.
1:04:13
So god, I don't know where the story
1:04:15
begins exactly. It kind of with Tony
1:04:17
a little bit, because I think I followed
1:04:19
you because of Tony. So Tony
1:04:22
was a podcast listener and Kojak
1:04:24
like started a side conversation with him
1:04:26
and had him sending him breads and stuff.
1:04:30
And Tony has this amazing restaurant,
1:04:32
and so then I became friends with Tony. And
1:04:34
then you have you're
1:04:36
a baker and your desserts are featured
1:04:38
there, and so I followed
1:04:40
you through that and then you're baking
1:04:43
and your glam and your style,
1:04:45
your hair, your glow.
1:04:48
What's not to follow, you
1:04:50
know? So anyhow,
1:04:53
today we are taking
1:04:55
the old podcast model
1:04:58
of food tests, where I would test their
1:05:00
palate basically judgmentally
1:05:03
and pretend there's objective truth about food
1:05:05
taste.
1:05:06
And we're now expanding
1:05:09
to real food in studio
1:05:11
with video.
1:05:13
Do you describe our three categories
1:05:16
because I don't want to mess it up.
1:05:17
Okay, so we said viral recipe,
1:05:20
yes, old fashioned recipe I
1:05:22
think.
1:05:22
Just because we both follow that one
1:05:24
lady, Yeah, Pastime Cook, Pastime
1:05:27
Cook, who I love. I also
1:05:29
love her. She does something that I've also
1:05:31
always been obsessed with, which is she
1:05:34
investigates what we're people eating centuries
1:05:37
ago or whatever.
1:05:37
And I've always wondered that, like, if I
1:05:40
sat down in the Middle Ages at a banquet,
1:05:43
how much of the food would be inedible and how much
1:05:45
would be better than anything.
1:05:46
I've ever tasted? Absolutely okay?
1:05:48
And then the final category.
1:05:50
Is just my own kind of
1:05:52
take on the lemon challenge so
1:05:55
much okay?
1:05:55
And you can make up a baked recipe.
1:05:58
Yeah, that's so amazing because like
1:06:00
I like to cook improvisationally,
1:06:03
but it's hard with baking
1:06:05
because you have to know the science really well, right,
1:06:07
it's all.
1:06:08
Like rooted in you know, other recipes
1:06:10
and kind of like mashing things
1:06:12
up and seeing what works.
1:06:13
Okay, because that's kind of how I cook.
1:06:15
I look at like five recipes that are vaguely
1:06:17
in the wheelhouse of what I want to do, and then I make
1:06:19
up my own kind of mashup.
1:06:21
But I feel like with baking, it would just be disastrous
1:06:24
if I did that. All right, So
1:06:27
we're gonna reveal the
1:06:30
category for today's Food
1:06:33
Test extravaganza. Lemon
1:06:39
is the theme on top
1:06:41
of these categories of oh,
1:06:44
viral and grand new
1:06:46
mashup? Which
1:06:48
is which? Unfortunately I might know,
1:06:52
but.
1:06:52
I'm gonna try to guess anyway, and
1:06:55
which one is the tastiest.
1:06:57
All right, Let's what do we try first? Here?
1:07:00
Um?
1:07:01
Maybe start with this this guy?
1:07:04
Okay, so what is this? Okay?
1:07:06
So this is a lemon
1:07:08
pound cake that I wow.
1:07:11
Let's see what we're doing here work.
1:07:14
I think we should try together because you haven't tried the finished
1:07:16
product, you know, okay, lemon
1:07:18
cake? Wow, the icing, the glaze. I mean,
1:07:20
I hate to say, I really wish I had coffee right now.
1:07:23
I just realized, like Padma locks me or
1:07:25
whatever, like I feel like they have one bite of everything.
1:07:27
I'm like, uh, oh, are
1:07:29
we supposed to move on to try like okay,
1:07:31
thirty things? Okay,
1:07:34
so that's number one? Very
1:07:37
good, thank you. I hate to say
1:07:39
I could go even harder with lemon. I
1:07:41
could go even harder. I want to see this is
1:07:43
the viral one because I think I
1:07:46
don't know. All right,
1:07:48
So now what is this little lemon cup?
1:07:51
This is a lemon posset, which
1:07:54
is actually like a very.
1:07:56
Passage for a second, what okay,
1:08:01
lemon pause.
1:08:01
It kind of like a panna cotta, which is
1:08:04
like cooked cream.
1:08:05
And they're beautiful again, so
1:08:07
look at this, come on kidding
1:08:10
me, tiny, I thought it was like
1:08:12
a little gelato or something. That's incredible.
1:08:16
Do you not like it?
1:08:17
No?
1:08:17
I do, perfect texture, don't
1:08:19
you think?
1:08:20
Yeah?
1:08:20
Oh yeah, so creamy, and
1:08:22
I'm not like a pudding person. This is kind of like a
1:08:24
pudding. Yeah, but it's so good.
1:08:27
Controversial opinion. Put
1:08:29
this with this and try it together. Yeah,
1:08:32
let's see what happens there. That
1:08:35
was so good. This is actually like private
1:08:37
eating on camera.
1:08:39
You are a recipe tester. You I would love
1:08:41
to be. This is how I'd eat in
1:08:43
private, like combined to desserts. Then
1:08:47
I'm like to my doctor, why is my cholesterol high? I
1:08:49
like healthy food. They're like, okay, you might
1:08:52
like it, but what else do you like? I'm like putting
1:08:54
on cake. Okay,
1:08:57
that's really good, thank you.
1:09:00
It would be really good too with like fresh raspberries
1:09:02
or like pomegranate on it or that or something like that. Yeah,
1:09:05
it's so pretty delicious. Okay,
1:09:08
now this one's daunting to cut into. Actually is
1:09:10
this edge paper
1:09:13
paper? Yeah? Now what is this called?
1:09:15
This is a preserved lemon
1:09:19
curd streuicul cake.
1:09:20
Ooh, I like this sound of that. Now
1:09:23
it's weird. Like I don't know if you have this, but for
1:09:25
me, I have trouble like trusting people
1:09:27
if their food taste is like I don't
1:09:29
know if I'm friends with anyone who doesn't like all of us.
1:09:33
Oh you know what I mean? Yes, yeah, like
1:09:35
if people don't like lemon, it's like questionable.
1:09:38
But I don't think anyone
1:09:40
could like it as much as I do. Yeah,
1:09:43
you know, we all have.
1:09:44
Like art, I get like a preference.
1:09:46
What's your absolute obsessions in the dessert
1:09:49
world?
1:09:49
I feel like that it's the things that I like don't make
1:09:51
on my own, so like croissants
1:09:54
because it's just not something because I started as like
1:09:56
a home baker, so I didn't go to like pastry
1:09:58
school.
1:09:59
Okay, this looks so
1:10:01
soft. Wait, I forget what you said.
1:10:02
This is called preserved lemon
1:10:04
curds drusel cake.
1:10:06
I mean the degree of lemon is absolute?
1:10:18
This yours? Should I tell you?
1:10:20
Now?
1:10:21
This is Yeah, it's so good. Did
1:10:23
you intentionally make yours the best one.
1:10:27
No, you go and look
1:10:29
for like a viral recipe like this.
1:10:31
Okay, Like I know
1:10:33
these ingredients aren't quite up to I
1:10:35
just wanted to have a good like contrast of
1:10:37
different like yeah.
1:10:39
So what was this called the viral wan? This
1:10:42
is the right, that's
1:10:45
the one. Yeah, this is the old one. Interesting.
1:10:47
So yeah, it's like there's this is like what old
1:10:49
ladies would have with like tea.
1:10:51
And it would be great, It would be really good with tea.
1:10:53
But I do the level of lemon in the
1:10:55
other two is so much more intensive. Yeah,
1:10:58
that really speaks to me. I wonder what
1:11:01
is is there anything interesting about sour?
1:11:04
Why do some people like it and some
1:11:06
people don't like a lot of people hate sour,
1:11:08
and for me, sour is everything. In fact, I
1:11:10
think I had an acupuncturist once tell me not
1:11:12
to eat anything sour or spicy, and I was like,
1:11:14
for this reason, I'm out, I can't
1:11:17
do it.
1:11:17
I can't.
1:11:18
Well, I think this was a smashing
1:11:21
success. I can't wait for
1:11:23
Laura, our producer here today
1:11:25
to try these and weigh in.
1:11:28
I myself think yours was one
1:11:30
hundred percent the.
1:11:31
Best
1:11:34
that's all I needed.
1:11:45
Anyway. Well, I guess that's it. I mean, I've been
1:11:47
here for ten hours today. This
1:11:49
episode will be ten and a half hours
1:11:51
long by the time I record the intro. So
1:11:53
amazing. I guess are you staying in
1:11:55
la you head and back to OHI I'm gonna hang
1:11:58
