ACAS powers the world's best

0:04

podcast. Here's show

0:06

that we recommend. Hi

0:08

friends. It's me, Sharon McMahon. Host

0:10

of, here's where it gets interesting.

0:13

And we've been working hard on a new documentary

0:15

series called resilient that explores

0:17

the incarceration of Japanese Americans

0:20

in the United States during World

0:22

War two. So join me

0:24

as I talk with experts and share firsthand

0:26

accounts that detailed the resilience

0:29

shown by one hundred and twenty thousand Japanese

0:32

Americans who endured wartime

0:35

imprisonment right here in America.

0:37

And on October twenty fourth, we conclude

0:39

our series with a special episode. Actor

0:42

George Takes, it's down with me to talk about

0:44

his family's experience behind

0:46

the barbed wire fences of an

0:48

incarceration camp. Don't

0:50

miss it because here's work. It's

0:52

interesting. Acast

0:56

and monetize their podcast everywhere.

Acast dot com. You

1:09

them off a natural beauty.

1:18

Hello yay. Welcome to Nashbutte.

1:20

Welcome to Nashbutte. The

1:23

beauty comedy podcast where we laugh,

1:26

we cry, and we scream. Welcome.

1:29

I am your host,

1:31

your guide, the creator

1:34

of this podcast, the producer, the

1:37

booker, the editor, I'm

1:39

I'm everything that has to do with

1:41

all things in and I'm Jackie j.

1:44

The beauty talk, shock, shock, your queen of creams,

1:46

also with the most serious pressure on the West

1:48

Coast, your favorite over thirty Natch influencer your

1:50

cookie southern ant. She's screaming while

1:52

the baby is screaming. Welcome to Natch

1:54

butte. Wow. This is a very

1:56

special episode of Natch butte. It's

1:58

a very special episode. And

2:02

I never knew when this day would come.

2:04

I did not know that I was even

2:06

gonna record this today. Beaut today's

2:09

the day that I found some time to record,

2:12

and I'm not gonna bury the

2:14

lead here. I'm gonna get right into the

2:16

matter at hand, which is that this

2:19

is the last episode of

2:21

Natch Butte. You

2:23

heard me. You're

2:25

now listening to the finale

2:28

episode of Natch. It

2:30

feels a little anticlimactic. Yes.

2:34

But unfortunately, this

2:36

is just how it's going down. This

2:39

is the last episode. Now, I

2:41

have so much to to say to unpack

2:43

with that. The first thing I'm gonna say

2:45

is don't unsubscribe to

2:48

this feed. And

2:51

don't rule me out. If

2:53

if all things go my way, this

2:55

feed will be active again

2:57

soon it will be fun and

2:59

exciting. It will be something that

3:01

you're going to enjoy. So don't

3:03

immediately unsubscribe and forget

3:05

about me. And forget about

3:07

Nashville for that matter Beaut it

3:09

might be back, to be honest. It might

3:11

be back, but I'm taking

3:14

a little Beaut, and

3:16

I am not giving myself

3:18

a timeline on the break. So

3:20

I'm gonna go ahead and just definitively

3:23

declare that this is the last episode of Ant pute.

3:25

Although, is it question

3:28

mark? So there's that. You

3:30

probably if you're an avid

3:32

listener of the show, which by the way, thank You

3:34

might be feeling a little caught off guard right now. You might

3:36

be like, what the fuck, Jackie? What's going on here?

3:38

You gave us no notice. And This

3:43

has been a very complicated decision

3:46

and I really wanna

3:48

get into the raisins. There's

3:50

a a very developed thoughtful

3:54

reason behind me ending

3:56

this show. However,

3:58

I'm not gonna get into it here

4:00

for various reasons. I'm going

4:03

to release the same day

4:05

that this comes out, a

4:07

Patreon episode where

4:09

I really give y'all the

4:12

damn tea. Patreon

4:14

dot com slash jackie Johnson. I will be

4:16

on my Patreon. I will be back there.

4:19

For the time being until a

4:21

new project is announced

4:24

and available to the public. Again,

4:26

when will that be? I don't

4:28

have a timeline. I do not have y'all

4:30

a time. But the Patreon

4:33

will be back up as of today.

4:35

There is an episode today. If

4:37

you join Jackie j's Patreon, you

4:39

can hear. And and I'm doing

4:41

that. Is it a cash grab

4:44

in a way Beaut really it's

4:46

because I just feel that this information

4:48

would be best

4:51

spared and only really

4:53

shared with those who care

4:55

if that makes sense. That that's where I'm

4:57

at in my journey as

4:59

a creator as a purchaser for the

5:01

time being. So If that sounds interesting

5:04

to you, patreon dot com slash checki johnson.

5:06

There's only going to be one level on

5:08

my patreon now, a five dollar

5:10

level. Every month, you can hear

5:12

a few episodes of something I'm doing

5:14

and keep up with my new projects. You're

5:16

also gonna get a sneak peek at the new project

5:18

I'm brewing. And

5:20

you can give me your input and things Beaut I

5:22

know that the people that go to that Patreon are

5:24

the people who care. So

5:27

head on over there, if you care, if not,

5:30

I'm just gonna say a couple things, vague

5:33

things. Number one,

5:36

I am not the same person I

5:38

am. When I

5:40

started Natch. I

5:42

have evolved a lot. The

5:44

world has evolved and changed

5:46

a lot since when attribute started.

5:49

It's a different world. It's a different environment.

5:52

And number three, probably the most important

5:54

thing. The podcast into

5:57

is not the same industry it was when

5:59

I started this show. All

6:02

three of those reasons put them in a

6:04

blender, hit the dam, you

6:06

know, level three, make yourself

6:08

a little soup. That's

6:10

the reason in a nutshell that I'm stopping

6:12

attribute. And I will get way

6:14

more into it and really

6:17

hold nothing back on my patreon. Okay.

6:19

I'm naming names. I have receipts. Because

6:21

I don't give a fuck. To

6:23

an extent. So and as I'm

6:25

saying this right now, I'm very

6:27

sad. Don't get me wrong. The

6:30

most fun I have in my life

6:32

is when I'm recording It is

6:34

the most fun I have. I feel

6:36

as though I've been putting out

6:38

my best work I've ever put out.

6:40

And as of recent months,

6:42

Natch was just recognized by

6:45

iHeartMedia at the

6:47

iHeart Music Podcast

6:50

Awards and is nominated for

6:52

the second year in a row for

6:54

best beauty and fashion

6:56

podcast. That's a very

6:59

big deal. The iHeart

7:01

Awards are considered to be the

7:03

awards for podcasts. And

7:05

if you look at the nominees in all of the

7:07

categories, they are truly the

7:09

top tier podcasts that

7:11

exist. So I

7:13

know I'm doing a good job. I know

7:15

my show is good. But alas,

7:19

the end is here. And

7:21

now I will express my gratitude, which

7:23

I have tried to do throughout

7:26

my journey as a host of a podcast.

7:28

I am so grateful to all of the listeners.

7:31

For your time, for

7:33

your trust, and

7:35

for your loyalty

7:38

to this show. It wouldn't

7:40

have been what it is if it wasn't

7:42

for y'all. So thank you for

7:44

that. It has absolutely changed my life.

7:46

It's gotten me through so much as y'all

7:49

know if you're a long time listener. It's

7:51

been a constant. It's been my

7:54

livelihood. And I am grateful

7:56

to be able to say that because it is

7:58

not easy to say, it is

8:00

not easy to accomplish. It

8:02

has been the most fun. I have had

8:04

the most fun conversations. I

8:06

know that if you are listening to this

8:08

and you identify as a honey,

8:11

that you deeply

8:13

ProFoundly understand me

8:16

and what I do. And

8:18

I don't take that lightly. I

8:21

know a lot of us have felt weird

8:23

or felt left out in the world.

8:26

And the fact that y'all get

8:28

me and y'all get what I'm doing is

8:31

so big and important,

8:33

so I'm so grateful to the

8:35

honey's for just supporting

8:37

Natch over these six years,

8:40

whether you've been listening the whole time, whether

8:42

you've been listening for a month.

8:44

Thank you for being here with me and

8:46

spending your time with me. And I just wanna

8:48

say shout out to all

8:50

the pennies who I've met in person,

8:52

who've come to my events. There haven't been that

8:54

many. But if you have, I'm

8:56

so honored I remember

8:58

the first meet up I did was in

9:00

Dallas, in my hometown, and

9:02

y'all came out, and, like, my

9:04

dad showed up at the bar, and he was

9:06

so impressed. Like, my

9:08

dad was like, you're famous and it

9:10

was just so fun and we

9:12

all hung out and took pictures and it was

9:15

just so fun because

9:17

y'all have spent time with me. And

9:20

even though I wasn't technically there,

9:23

you were hanging out with me.

9:25

And it means so much to me now

9:27

especially on the other side of

9:29

motherhood where time is

9:31

so precious that I

9:33

now know, like, how

9:35

big of a deal it is that you've invested so

9:37

much of your time to be with

9:39

me and supporting Natch So

9:41

thank you. Thank you. If

9:44

you've ever met me and

9:46

you brought me a gift or

9:48

you've sent me a gift. I mean, Renee's

9:50

pillow that she sent me, shout out Renee,

9:52

is on my couch in my

9:55

office of my home right now.

9:57

I wear my sweatshirt with

9:59

ChuJ's facecrochet on it all the

10:01

time. Like, y'all are the best

10:03

people and I'm

10:05

so honored that y'all

10:07

have been here with me and you've changed

10:09

my life. Than the way that you have

10:11

supported Natch and

10:13

supported me. And

10:15

y'all my period started after

10:18

six months post BARDA.

10:21

So y'all caught me on an extra

10:23

emotional day. That's why I'm out of

10:25

nowhere I'm like sobbing. But

10:28

I'm so just filled

10:30

with love for the honey's and for

10:32

an inch view. And I'm

10:34

not taking lightly that this show is

10:36

ending. It's it it's really

10:38

weird. Like, I was

10:40

keeping it together, but but it's

10:43

really hard. This was a very hard

10:45

decision that I've been marinating on

10:47

for a while now, about

10:49

a year, honestly. And

10:53

there's other things coming. So

10:56

don't worry if you wanna

10:58

hear more from me. My

11:00

plan is that that there will be more

11:02

from me. But for now,

11:04

honey. She's putting the cap on

11:06

the jar of cream, and she's shoving

11:08

it on the shelf. And

11:11

I'm so grateful to every

11:14

single guest who has been on

11:16

attribute. I was going to

11:18

name each one, but I

11:20

decided against it. It actually

11:22

might be fun if I just go through really quickly

11:24

and name them all. I'm not going

11:26

to. Everyone who's been on Ashby, thank you

11:28

for your time. It's been

11:30

a wild journey for a lot

11:32

of us. There is a good amount

11:34

of people who have been guests on

11:36

attribute who are completely different

11:38

people now. They have

11:40

different names. They have

11:42

transitioned. They have become other people.

11:44

They have become who they're supposed to be.

11:47

I've even had somebody die.

11:50

There has been a guess on an dispute

11:52

that is no longer on this

11:54

earth with us. There's a

11:56

couple people who have completely disappeared.

11:58

I can't find them on the Internet. I don't

12:00

know where they are. It's

12:03

been a journey y'all. It has

12:05

been a journey. So

12:07

thank you to all of the guests wherever you

12:09

are, whether you're Earth's side, whether

12:11

you're in the sky, whether you're in

12:13

hell, wherever you are.

12:16

Thank you for your time. Thank you for being a

12:18

guest on Natch Butte. You

12:21

know, everything on the other side of mommyhood

12:23

is different, and we'll

12:25

get more into that all the paper out.

12:27

Okay? But for this last

12:30

episode, I decided that I

12:32

wanted to be the guest. Because

12:35

I interview people on Natch you,

12:37

and I never get to answer the

12:39

questions that I ask my guests.

12:42

And I selfishly want

12:44

to answer them. So I'm gonna

12:46

interview myself. So

12:48

we're gonna start how we always

12:51

start the intro. My

12:53

guest today is a podcast host,

12:56

a new mom, a

12:58

comedian, and she's here to

13:00

Talk to us about her journey with

13:03

her career and her

13:05

skincare and her self care. Please

13:07

welcome, Jackie Johnson. Hello?

13:09

Welcome to Nashville, Jackie. Oh my

13:11

god, Jackie. What a great intro.

13:13

I'm gonna be honest, Jackie. That wasn't

13:16

even my best intro. That was totally

13:18

phoned in. I didn't have anything written out like I

13:20

normally do. This is the last

13:22

episode, honey. What is it senioritis? She's

13:24

slacking. I was

13:26

I thought it was fine. Let's continue.

13:29

Okay. Jackie, what type of skin do you

13:31

have? This is the first question every guest

13:33

on the attribute gets. My

13:36

skin listen.

13:38

Skin care has not been my priority

13:41

these days. It has definitely taken

13:43

a hit since I've had a baby. I

13:45

have a six month old child. So

13:48

my skin is

13:51

Fine. That's the word I'm gonna say. My

13:53

skin is fine. It's a

13:55

little

13:55

neglected, but it's been through

13:58

a lot. And we have been there

14:00

for each other. So I would

14:02

never dog my girl, but

14:04

she's definitely seen better days

14:06

She's dry right now. She's

14:09

tired right now. But

14:11

she's doing her best. Fair.

14:14

Fair. What is

14:16

the first beauty product you ever

14:19

bought or used? I

14:21

am so thrilled to answer this

14:23

question because I have never answered

14:25

it. Can you believe I've asked this question to

14:27

hundreds of people, but I've never answered it

14:29

myself officially. Here it is.

14:31

This is easy. Well, never one

14:34

is Noxima because when

14:36

I was a tiny child,

14:38

one time I smeared it all over the mirror of

14:40

my house, because my mom left a jar on the

14:42

counter. I was probably three. But I

14:44

didn't technically use it. I smeared it all over the

14:46

mirror. So first

14:49

beauty product I ever used,

14:51

my mom had

14:53

a caboodle. And this

14:55

caboodle was one of

14:57

the most glorious things that I

14:59

had ever feasted my

15:01

little dirty hands in. I

15:03

used to sit at her makeup's

15:05

mirror and stick my hands in

15:07

that caboodle and just fuck with

15:09

every item in it. Some

15:11

of the ones that I recall, she

15:14

had this lipstick that was in a metal

15:17

gold tube and you open it up and

15:19

it was this coral choral

15:21

color. I'm talking like orange

15:23

coral and I

15:25

remember opening the lipstick and

15:27

twisting the tube and it

15:29

stunk so bad because this

15:31

makeup was one hundred percent

15:33

expired. This was probably from the damn

15:35

seventies, the the look of it in

15:37

the color. And we would put

15:39

it Sissy and I would put it all

15:41

over our lips. It was

15:43

disgusting, but I loved

15:45

it. There was also a

15:47

shimmery purple eye

15:49

shadow and the maybelline

15:52

mascara in the pink and green tube. I

15:54

remember those very specifically.

15:58

Skincare, my mom always used

16:00

that mint tulip mask.

16:03

Queen Helene and mint tulip she

16:05

would do that mask all the time. At one point, she

16:07

let me and my sister put it on. So those

16:09

are the first memories I have

16:11

of beauty and makeup. My mommy's

16:13

caboodle And you know what? My mom

16:15

probably still has that damn lipstick. She

16:18

probably still has it in there. Okay.

16:20

Let's pause for a moment

16:22

and discuss. I recorded

16:24

that and then I decided

16:26

to dive deeper into

16:28

that question. I

16:31

decided to call my mother

16:33

and my sister and

16:35

really get some more

16:37

information about the caboodle.

16:40

This is the last episode of Nattribute. Might

16:42

as well take some calls. I

16:44

also just wanna say that I

16:46

started to second guess myself

16:48

There's a lot of lore around this,

16:51

Noxima, on the mirror story.

16:53

It was videotaped, and

16:55

I've seen the video

16:57

So I started second guessing myself

16:59

thinking, was it

17:01

me in the mirror or was it my

17:03

sister? Because my memory of the

17:06

event is tainted from the

17:08

fact that I've seen video of

17:10

it. And so I decided I would

17:12

ask my sister and my mother

17:14

for their thoughts on

17:16

the situation. To clarify.

17:18

Was it me or was it my sister basically?

17:20

So you're gonna hear a few voices.

17:22

First, I'm gonna call my mom and I'm gonna

17:25

get her thoughts on the caboodle.

17:27

And just to frame

17:29

everything, my mother and father are divorced.

17:31

They've been divorced since I was seven.

17:33

They are not friendly with each other,

17:36

and that will probably be reflected, but

17:38

we're keeping it real. Let's

17:40

go.

17:47

Yes. Mommy. Hi. Pardon a matter of

17:50

fact, I was just sitting here looking at your little

17:52

one's picture. You

17:54

were. You know, he's been cute

17:57

and you've been in that car, you're saying, what

17:59

a beautiful

17:59

picture? My god, he looks like he's

18:02

half grown. And

18:03

that was taken in October. He's even bigger

18:05

now. How much did

18:06

he weigh? He's

18:07

eighteen ish pounds. Oh my

18:10

god. He's giant.

18:14

He'll be cutting his own steak pretty

18:17

soon.

18:17

Can you

18:18

turn that TV down a little bit?

18:21

Yeah. If I can. Let's see here.

18:22

So I have a random question for

18:25

you. Okay. I was gonna ask you,

18:27

do you remember at

18:29

our old house, your caboodle.

18:32

Yes. So there was all this

18:34

weird stuff in there. Oh,

18:36

yeah. Everything. You had these

18:38

lipsticks that were It was purple and

18:40

pink one. I remember being

18:42

purple. Yeah. Do you remember

18:44

that you you had these tubes

18:46

of lipstick that

18:47

were, like, peach, really light

18:50

peach. I

18:50

had all

18:51

kinds of lipstick.

18:53

Beaut. But these lipzits were like I mean, they felt

18:56

like they were from the seventies. They definitely

18:58

were Oh, I probably haven't had any

19:00

screumat. Oh my god. One

19:02

was blue come a a turquoise

19:04

blue

19:04

frosty, and it was a peppermint pink.

19:06

I remember that one was, like, it tasted like

19:08

peppermint.

19:08

Yeah. And you had, like, you

19:11

remember that Victoria Jackson palette?

19:13

Yes. Where did you

19:16

get that? I have

19:18

no clue. Because I

19:18

did we didn't have an email. I mean, stuff

19:21

you could order online and have it sent to your house. I

19:23

probably got it at, like, a dollar store or

19:25

something. Yeah. I

19:27

remember it said Vijay on the front, and that's why

19:29

Sissy liked it. What

19:31

was

19:31

Victoria Jackson? Victoria Jackson.

19:33

Wouldn't it?

19:34

Yeah. Yeah. And you used

19:37

that green tube

19:39

mabling mascara.

19:40

There's a pink tube with a green -- Yes. Yes. Yes.

19:42

Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. -- I still use that. Okay.

19:44

Good. Sizzie's about to come visit me. I'm

19:46

sending her home with a bunch of red lipstick

19:49

products for you. Oh, good.

19:51

Side bar, my mother only

19:53

wears red lipstick. That's the only

19:55

color she fucks with. So every time I

19:57

get sent PR for red

19:59

lipstick products, I pretty much send

20:01

them to her. And I get her thoughts. Do

20:03

you remember sorry. I'm I'm doing some research

20:06

for my podcast. Oh,

20:08

okay. Do you remember the

20:10

mint jewel up mask that you'd always put

20:12

on? Oh, yeah. Queen

20:15

Helene. Yeah. That's what I thought. They still

20:17

sell that. Oh, what's

20:18

good? It works. You make you get a start to get a pimple and

20:20

we put that on there and it would never come

20:23

out. Yeah. It's a classic. It

20:25

is. It's cheap. It may

20:27

be more expensive now, but you can get the dollar store

20:30

for like a dollar or two. Beaut.

20:31

In case you're wondering where I got my

20:33

thrifty slash cheap ass bitch

20:36

mentality, from my mom. I'm trying to

20:38

remember. Sissy said that you used to

20:40

collect, like, vintage

20:41

compacts? I did. Yeah.

20:44

Because I remember a couple that

20:46

had, like, a little powder puff, that the powder puff was

20:49

basically dissolved because it was so

20:50

old. Oh,

20:51

yeah. Yeah. There's so many of my mothers had those. Some

20:54

of them were tiny, like,

20:56

the size of fifty cent piece, and some were bigger,

20:58

and some had mirrors, and some were overnight.

21:00

I don't know where any of those are either.

21:02

Hopefully, they're all packed somewhere. And

21:05

you know, we were smearing those products on

21:07

our face. Well,

21:08

yes, it's fine though. And they were made back then

21:11

with no chemicals and stuff. I mean, it was all

21:13

natural back then. I

21:14

don't know. Is that true? Well, it

21:17

didn't eat holes in your face or

21:19

anything. Did it? No. You got me

21:21

there. Yeah. My mother had

21:23

beautiful skin and she used stuff like that her whole life. So I think that

21:25

made them better then because I didn't have the preserving

21:27

chemicals and stuff in

21:28

them. You didn't really need them for powder.

21:31

I mean, wanted to remind

21:33

everybody here on attribute. We adhered the

21:35

guidelines on the back of your

21:37

products. Whatever it says

21:39

about Evix firing. That is when I

21:41

recommend stopping to use a

21:43

product. Yeah. There's one lipstick

21:45

that I'm remembering. It stunk

21:47

because it smelled like crayons Beaut it was

21:49

probably from, like you said, high school, but it

21:51

was this really light

21:54

orange peachy

21:54

color. Now I

21:55

remember the peppermint pink. I'm trying to think

21:57

there wasn't orange. Wasn't it yardly?

21:59

I don't

22:00

know. They had the tube, but it's like orange

22:03

and pink. Circles? Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes.

22:05

Yeah. Yardley. That was

22:06

Yardley. Is that a

22:06

brand? Yeah.

22:07

Yardley was a real famous English

22:11

cosmetic brand.

22:12

Okay. And that you you sure you bought

22:14

that in the seventies? Yeah. Let's

22:17

look it up. YARDLEY

22:19

Yurley Cosmetics. And it

22:21

was all the hip hop girls that had all

22:23

the long straight hair and the the

22:25

stripy dresses and the tube

22:27

was stripy. Yes. Yeah. We

22:28

had a bunch of that Yardley stuff. Okay.

22:30

I'm looking at it right now.

22:32

It's Yardley's name. Trimpton or someone

22:34

what that was with top model for them.

22:37

Oh, my god, mom. This is

22:39

it. This is it. I think I

22:41

still have the tube somewhere.

22:43

It is Oh my god.

22:45

If you're ever interested, they're

22:47

going on eBay for a hundred dollars.

22:49

Oh, you're kidding. I think I still have at least

22:51

one somewhere. This is literally what

22:53

has been in my brain.

22:55

This exact I'm looking

22:57

right at it. Gartley

23:00

London lip polish -- Yeah. -- from nineteen

23:02

sixty nine. Yep. Wow.

23:04

You got to the bottom of

23:05

it. Yes. See, my brain does

23:08

still work. Mean, I

23:10

can see that tube sitting here. Just and

23:12

on the bottom, it had a label that had

23:14

the color name or something on it.

23:16

Yep. I'm looking right at it. I

23:18

was putting twenty year old

23:20

makeup on my lips. Hey,

23:23

it's great. We had the orange.

23:25

We had pink. I'll

23:27

send you this photo, but, yep, you did

23:29

it. You solved the mystery. Oh, it was

23:31

great lipstick too. It stayed on. Last

23:33

thing I wanna ask you is,

23:36

unfortunately, because I've seen the

23:38

video, I thought that I was

23:40

the Noxima person, but it

23:42

was sissy. Right? Mhmm.

23:44

That, I don't remember.

23:46

No. Remember her singing with the

23:48

mirror covering the mirror in Nagzema? Oh,

23:51

okay. You remember

23:53

sort of but I can't remember which one of your

23:55

or I thought it was you too. Okay.

23:58

Because I thought it was me. Sissy's

24:00

saying it was her. Oh, okay. Danielle, you might

24:02

ask Kim on the mirror in the

24:04

country club house in that little

24:05

bathroom, the guest bathroom in

24:08

the hallway. Oh, okay. Because I was thinking

24:08

maybe I'll shoot in the bathtub with the big mirror

24:11

back behind the whole bathtub. No.

24:13

And I was whoever this

24:15

was was singing cabaret while

24:17

smearing noxine all over the

24:18

mirror. You don't remember? Not

24:21

exactly, but if it was singing,

24:23

it was probably you

24:26

Okay. I'm gonna have to call dad because

24:28

sissy thinks it was her. I think

24:30

it's me. I gotta

24:32

find out now. I don't remember for sure,

24:34

but that sounds more like you than her.

24:36

I'm not gonna say I'm disappointed that you don't

24:38

remember, but I know you've had a long life full of

24:39

memories, but Well, I might

24:41

not have been there. If he

24:42

knows. Mom, this was like a big

24:45

story among our youth. It was

24:46

like, okay. I gotta

24:48

get to the automate this. Yeah.

24:50

Let me know. Okay. I'm

24:52

gonna have to call dad.

24:54

Alright. Good luck.

24:56

Okay. Well, thank you for your input.

24:58

Alright. I'm glad

24:59

you got our card. Yes. But, okay,

25:01

I'll let you know who was the Noxima bandit.

25:04

Alright.

25:04

Thank you, mommy. Bye.

25:07

Bye. Love you. Now I attempted

25:09

to call my father, my

25:11

father, John Johnson. Yes, that's

25:13

his real name. Famously

25:16

never. Ever, ever

25:18

answers his

25:18

phone. It went straight to voicemail.

25:21

Hi.

25:21

This is John. I'm sorry I

25:23

missed your call. Please leave your

25:25

number. And

25:26

So I hung up and called

25:29

my stepmother, which is the

25:31

only way to get a hold of my father these days.

25:34

Good morning, love.

25:38

Hello.

25:38

How are you? I'm

25:40

good. I'm just watching little Sandy on the

25:43

monitor. Oh, our sweet

25:46

boy. Is dad around? He's

25:48

in the shower

25:49

upstairs. Can I help you? What's up,

25:52

Bluff? I have to ask

25:54

him something. I've just been on the phone

25:56

with my mom. Okay. And

25:58

I'm trying to get

26:00

the third and final

26:02

opinion on a a

26:04

controversial story of my

26:06

youth because apparently, my mom thinks it was me. My

26:08

sister thinks it was her. I

26:10

don't know. And I need dad to

26:12

weigh in so that we know which kid

26:14

this

26:14

was. There's a story of

26:17

one of us smeared noxima all over

26:19

the mirror in the back. That was Veronica.

26:22

Okay.

26:22

heard this story many times. Yes.

26:25

We we know how dad likes to repeat

26:27

his stories.

26:28

Well, they're

26:28

so cute. Some of us

26:30

are so cute not to

26:32

repeat.

26:32

I

26:32

thought it was sissy as well.

26:34

Yes. It

26:35

was. Okay. Well, when

26:37

There is a picture. There's a picture

26:40

somewhere -- Yes. -- in front of

26:42

it. Yes. When he

26:42

gets out because I'm doing some research for

26:44

an episode of my show. Okay.

26:47

So when he gets out and he's dried

26:49

off and whatnot, I have

26:51

another forty minutes until I need

26:53

to feed Sandy again. So if

26:55

if he gets out in the next forty

26:57

minutes and is available for a very quick chat

26:59

for my

27:00

research,

27:01

I will have him call his daughter.

27:04

Okay. Perfect. I called

27:06

my sister. She did not

27:08

answer. I waited for her to call me back and

27:10

sure

27:10

enough. Called me back a few minutes later. There's nothing

27:13

there.

27:13

This is the lie. This is

27:15

my last called Teresa's ringtone.

27:19

Nothing.

27:20

Hi. Hi. Sorry.

27:22

I was checking

27:23

it out at the hardware store. Another

27:26

automatic faucet at the pub

27:28

broke, so I'm replacing it with a not automatic

27:30

faucet because automatic faucets are

27:31

bullshit. They make me feel

27:34

insane Beaut I tried to turn

27:36

them on and nothing happens. And I'm like, am I a ghost?

27:38

Am I really

27:38

here? Is this the Truman Show? And I have

27:40

just like this meltdown.

27:42

Yep. Okay. The first thing I wanna

27:45

ask you is do you remember

27:47

the Nagzima Mirror incident?

27:51

The things that I remember about the

27:53

non Vina mirror instrument, like, through my

27:55

eyeballs. Because I've seen the video

27:56

too, and I think the video kind of hallucit.

27:59

Yes. Beaut do you

28:01

remember without the video interfering

28:03

with your core memory? Do you have any

28:05

recollection of it? I

28:06

do. I remember sitting on the counter, which

28:08

is really funny. My my husband still makes fun of

28:10

me Beaut I still, to this day, sit

28:13

on the counter when I, like, brush my teeth

28:15

and put on my moisturizer and stuff. I do

28:17

that too. Yeah. I just I don't know why.

28:19

I fit, so I sit up there. I

28:21

remember the smell Beaut Nogzema

28:23

has a very

28:25

distinct kind of mentholy smell. I

28:27

remember because I'm smearing it. It wasn't just on

28:29

the mirror. Like, I it was on my face. It

28:31

was on my arms. Like, it felt

28:33

good. It was tingling. You know?

28:36

remember dad

28:39

laughing. Mhmm. I

28:42

don't remember the camera being

28:44

there. I wanted to cover the whole mirror. I wanted to make

28:46

the mirror white. I just talked to

28:48

mom and mom

28:50

doesn't remember this. There's

28:53

no way she doesn't I know. I

28:55

was I was honestly offended. Because

28:57

again, I thought it was me

28:59

Beaut I've seen the video and the video has

29:01

mixed with my memory. And I was like,

29:03

did this happen to me? But I then I thought

29:05

I think it was you. Yeah. No.

29:07

I'm pretty sure I took advantage of

29:09

them not watch me because they were dealing

29:11

with you because you were a

29:13

baby. Yeah. The house we were in,

29:15

we left that house when I was

29:18

three And you were one. So Wait.

29:20

Was it in the Sutherland House? It

29:22

was in

29:22

the Sutherland House. Oh, I thought it was in

29:24

the Country Club House. No. It was

29:26

in the Sutherland House. I mean, that's why

29:28

yeah. We didn't have a bathroom, not small

29:30

--

29:30

Okay. -- in the Country Clubhouse. Just

29:33

so everyone knows what we're talking about, we

29:35

reference the names of

29:37

our houses based on the streets they were on. The

29:39

house I grew up in was on

29:41

Country Club Drive. And

29:43

the house my parents lived in when I was

29:45

a teensy baby on

29:47

Sunland

29:47

Drive. There you go. Yeah. I mean, I

29:50

remember I remember painting the mirror. I

29:52

remember laughing. I remember tasting

29:54

it. Like, I remember licking my

29:55

hand. I feel like leaving a three year

29:57

old unsupervised on a

30:00

countertop with a toxic

30:02

substance is probably not

30:03

okay. Is that Well,

30:06

I mean, they were probably changing your diaper or

30:08

you had thrown up, and I justbottled away.

30:10

I mean, kid your kid's not three years old yet.

30:12

You don't know. Like,

30:15

you don't know. It happens

30:17

so easily and so quickly.

30:19

The crazy thing is that I got that jar open

30:22

because it was it was the screw when

30:24

was it the pump? That I can't remember.

30:26

I can't I was doing it. It was the

30:28

pump. Yeah. Mom like a pump.

30:29

Yeah. They used to remember playing with those in the bathtub. Okay.

30:33

But now onto the caboodle. So

30:35

mom's egg mom's

30:37

caboodle. I

30:38

remember sitting

30:40

there and just playing with all

30:42

of her products. That was one of my favorite

30:44

things to do. I know you

30:46

you did it too. Off the top of your

30:48

head, do you remember any of the items inside

30:51

of mommy's purple, I

30:53

believe,

30:53

to doodle? It was purple

30:54

and it wasn't a normal caboodle eater. It might

30:56

not even have been caboodle brand. I think so

30:59

too. It was some kind

30:59

of offering

31:00

because it was Square. But it

31:02

was so much better. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

31:05

It was so much better. I remember a few

31:07

things. I remember she always had the best

31:09

tweezers

31:09

Mhmm. She always the was into this day. I'm, like,

31:11

so crazy about which weeders I

31:13

like. And she has I think because

31:16

I would

31:17

I'm not gonna say I have a tweezing fetish,

31:20

but I love a tweeze. Is that because

31:22

of

31:22

this? I don't know. I tweeze every day.

31:24

Yeah. Every day. Yeah.

31:27

I'm sure that's something we got

31:29

from her. I don't know that kind of stuff

31:31

is genetic, but nature versus

31:34

nurture, whichever you wanna choose. But she was

31:36

at the best weezers and

31:38

she had lip pencils. I

31:40

remember just pencils. Pencils of

31:42

all colors. All colors.

31:44

Purple, blue, green, white,

31:46

splats, frown. Great. I feel like it

31:48

was the eighties. And so women there was like

31:50

the nineties where everything was pretty normal, but the

31:52

eighties, like women did wear a lot of color.

31:55

And I don't necessarily think mom subscribed to that on

31:57

a day to day basis Beaut she's kinda like you. She

31:59

wouldn't really doll up unless it

32:01

was a special occasion. Day to she didn't

32:03

really wear makeup, but like a Friday night

32:05

mom was a hundred percent. Mhmm. But

32:07

to remember all those pencils, I remember

32:09

she had this really cool little blush with

32:12

like a poof that was in it, not like

32:14

a like a sponge. It was an actual

32:16

flukey poof. Like a ribbon tied on

32:18

and I love that thing. I just

32:20

remember the pan was exposed thinking there was a

32:22

mirror at the bottom of it and I couldn't wait so it

32:24

was all gone. So I wanted to see that mirror

32:26

so badly. I just remember the way

32:28

that it smelled that caboodle

32:30

just had that makeup smell,

32:31

you know? Well, so

32:33

I've talked to mom.

32:35

I spoke with her earlier this afternoon,

32:38

and I described the lipstick

32:40

that I'm thinking of, which is it was in a

32:42

gold tube and the itself

32:44

was this very light

32:46

orange y peach. The hippie

32:48

lipstick? Yes. And mom

32:51

told me the brand and I found

32:53

the lipstick. Wait.

32:56

Really? Yes. It's from a

32:58

brand called Yardley. Like

33:01

Yardley Smith voice of Lisa

33:03

Simpson, but with YARD

33:06

Yardley. And I

33:08

Googled Yardley Cosmetics and it

33:10

literally pops up and I have a photo of

33:12

it that I'm gonna send

33:12

you. Oh my

33:13

gosh. I just googled it too. There it is. I

33:15

know. And so this is from the

33:18

fucking sixties. Sixty

33:20

eight. Mom said she used this in high

33:21

school, and we were rubbing it on our

33:24

faces in the nineties. I

33:26

mean, if it is

33:27

Man. Man. I'd

33:30

be lying if I said I didn't have some

33:32

makeup that was suspiciously old. Not

33:34

from high school. I can't go that

33:36

far. Wow. Look at this Here's a picture of

33:38

it. Would it look like brand new? I

33:40

wanna buy one off eBay for a hundred

33:42

dollars, like, really

33:43

bad. Oh my

33:44

god. Mom said she still

33:45

has it somewhere. I know

33:47

what it smells like. Yes. Crayons. Oh

33:50

my. I know. It's so exciting.

33:52

I want one. God, the memories of

33:55

this stuff. I know. I want it so bad. I wanna buy

33:57

this on eBay so

33:57

bad. Holy crap. Is

34:00

this brand still with this? Yeah. She

34:02

had the light. She had, like, an orange and

34:04

she had pink Yes. I

34:05

saw I said she had she called it

34:07

peppermint pink and then the the peachy

34:09

orange, like I

34:10

mean, it was dream sickle

34:13

orange. still

34:14

Dad's calling me

34:15

back. I thought Dad

34:16

thought they were the most beautiful colors I

34:18

had ever seen. Yes. My god. I

34:21

probably wore it high school too, which means I was wearing,

34:23

like, forty

34:25

something. I'm telling you.

34:28

Okay.

34:28

Well, dad's call me back, so I'm gonna

34:31

answer it. And get Okay. Wait with me on or No.

34:33

Oh, good. Okay. We'll call you

34:35

back. Alright. Hi, dad. So what's

34:37

you doing?

34:37

Well, I'm recording

34:39

an episode of my show. Uh-huh.

34:42

And I'm doing some research

34:44

into a memory of

34:45

mine as a child. Uh-huh.

34:47

And did

34:49

Becky tell you? Yes. And it was definitely

34:52

Veronica was the one that

34:54

was smearing the not seem all over the

34:56

bathroom

34:56

mirror. Yeah. So you

34:57

remember it still. Beaut. As

35:00

a matter of fact, when we were

35:02

having to move things around in

35:04

the attic to make room for

35:07

the guys to get up there and and install

35:09

our new HVAC

35:10

system. Mhmm.

35:11

I found a a big kind

35:13

of cardboard box had a bunch

35:15

of old videos in it from the

35:18

family. Mhmm. And and I

35:20

remembered your mother Beaut I

35:22

found two or three of them. She had the

35:24

DHS conset

35:26

that are labeled family and

35:28

there's, like, family 1234

35:32

And whenever Cassette would fill up and we'd start another one and it

35:34

was of you guys, you know, growing up

35:36

and stuff. And on family

35:38

one is the one that I I

35:40

watched it

35:42

and pretty much near the end is

35:44

the video of Veronica

35:46

Smear in the Knoxhaven in

35:49

the bathroom and not very good quality because

35:51

it was an old VHS with a those

35:54

very early home video cameras

35:56

didn't have the resolution for the low

35:58

light

35:59

capability.

36:00

That they

36:01

had initially. Mhmm. But you can

36:02

still see you can still see

36:03

it plenty well, but it's kinda grainy stuff. Beaut

36:05

it was really cute

36:08

and funny. We

36:08

should get those converted to MP3 There's a service

36:11

that does that now. Yeah. I know.

36:13

And there's been one

36:14

for quite a while because you remember when

36:16

you sent all yours Yes. It was great. It

36:17

was a legacy box. They were a sponsor of

36:20

Natural Natch. They do

36:22

great work. That's

36:23

right. And they did it for free Beaut they were just getting started now. I think they charged

36:25

Well, no. They did it for free for me because

36:26

they did ads with me. I see.

36:28

Yeah. So we should do that

36:31

because those are very important memories that we should because those

36:34

tapes dissolve though, I've had cassette

36:36

tapes and VHS tapes dissolve

36:38

and then they're ruined and you can't even watch

36:40

them.

36:41

Yeah. Well, these were pretty well preserved in stuff, and

36:44

they seemed to be just fine. Yeah. You know what I mean?

36:46

They weren't weren't kept in

36:47

cold, damp, or real cold, cold, cold,

36:50

cold, hot.

36:52

We

36:52

we should get those done.

36:53

Maybe I'll order a box and have it sent to

36:55

y'all so you can do ship

36:57

them because it would

37:00

be important for me to just to have those, you know. But anyway --

37:02

Yeah. -- so okay. It

37:04

was sissy. This was at

37:06

the Summerlin

37:08

House. Yes. Okay. I thought it was at the Country Club House, but

37:10

again, I'm only going off of seeing

37:12

the video. I don't think I was

37:15

cognitive enough as a child to

37:18

remember the actual memory? Because I think

37:20

I was like a

37:20

baby. Yeah. If we were in the cell in

37:22

house, I was, what, one -- Yeah. Yeah.

37:26

And then if you remember,

37:28

I gave you and Veronica

37:32

a VHS recorder and camcorder that I'd like

37:34

bought at a garage sale or something. Y'all made a

37:36

bunch of funny little

37:37

movies. Oh, yeah. Yeah.

37:39

And then remember you and Erica used to go to

37:42

the cable channel and they would let to

37:44

use the studio and y'all would do

37:46

all this kind of stuff and it'd be broadcast

37:48

on the

37:49

community cable channel, and we could

37:51

I remember

37:52

your mother and I could just about any time a

37:54

day turn on the TV and put it on the

37:56

community access

37:57

channel and there was you and Eric around like a playing

37:59

in the studio and -- Yeah. We were -- television.

38:01

-- stuff like

38:02

that. -- dad, we were television stars.

38:06

I was a child television star. No one can take that

38:08

with me. And y'all would

38:10

sing and all kinds

38:13

was really cute. Yeah. We

38:14

were a little correspondence. Yeah.

38:16

And it got it got to where

38:18

the guys at the local table place up

38:21

there would just let y'all come in whenever you want and going to speak. Because nobody

38:23

ever used --

38:23

Yeah. -- you're not really engaged. I

38:26

guess I should tell y'all that, yes, I

38:28

was a

38:30

television star in my youth. As my father just said, there was

38:32

a local cable access channel

38:34

and a friend of mine, Erica,

38:36

who I did pageants with, She

38:40

had her own television show on the cable access channel called

38:42

superstar Kids, where she was the host, and

38:44

my sister and I were frequent guests.

38:48

And correspondence. It was very

38:49

fun. And looking back, it was the

38:51

start of my broadcasting career. Yeah. And you

38:53

guys used it

38:54

all It was

38:55

right up the street too. Yeah.

38:57

It was right in the neighborhood. Ride. Ride your

38:59

bike trip. It was right

39:01

across from the Albertsons -- Exactly.

39:03

--

39:03

in Garland. And,

39:04

you know, that building is still there

39:07

and Spectrum uses that building now. The

39:09

cable company? Yeah. Shout out to

39:11

all the dads out there that

39:13

keep inventory on what companies

39:15

are in what buildings in your hometown and letting know what's going on?

39:17

Ben and

39:17

Austin's, I've been there, to be honest. So,

39:20

yeah, I found and when we

39:22

were, like, when

39:24

we were moving stuff in the attic, I also found a

39:26

pretty pretty good sized

39:29

box of VHS's that

39:32

I'm pretty sure I got most of them

39:34

out of your closet when

39:36

I were cleaning out the room and

39:38

all that

39:39

stuff. And I put them all in a box. So we've we've

39:41

got all that stuff that y'all made

39:43

and and those videos

39:45

y'all shot of

39:47

Moxie in his cage.

39:50

Moxie is my father's

39:52

iguana that he got when my parents

39:54

got divorced. And he was a dad's

39:56

him in from Mexico in his wooden

39:57

leg. True story. Then he

40:00

there's one where he

40:02

said

40:03

you put the camera on Monty on

40:05

his little self in his cage,

40:08

and you made a

40:10

voice for him

40:11

going, you have pleased me Yes.

40:13

I

40:13

remember that.

40:14

Yes. That's very very cute

40:17

stuff. Dad, you're referring to

40:20

my

40:20

hit short film, the

40:22

lizard of

40:23

ours. Is

40:24

that what it was? Yes. Lizard of ours. He

40:26

was

40:26

the lizard of ours. And

40:28

at the end,

40:29

Yeah. I was doing

40:31

parody before parody was cool.

40:33

Mhmm. This is helped. Alright.

40:35

Well, we now know it was sissy

40:37

in the

40:38

mirror. Do you remember that day? Like, I I feel

40:40

since he says that y'all were probably tending

40:42

to me and she crawled away and

40:45

went up and maybe Rocky

40:48

helped her on the counter. Rocky

40:50

was our bull terrier. Bull terriers

40:52

were extremely popular in the eighties due

40:55

to Bud Light and spud

40:56

McKenzie. And then, I guess, you saw her and went and got

40:58

the camera because it was funny? Yeah.

41:01

For some reason, I'm thinking

41:03

that your mother wasn't home. I

41:05

know she shopping. Beaut she I just

41:08

talked to her and she doesn't even remember

41:10

it

41:10

now. I'm pretty sure your

41:12

mother was, like, at the Grossery

41:14

or at probably at the horse bottom or something. Because

41:17

remember she was always messing with the

41:19

horses all the time. Mhmm. And

41:21

it was me. And

41:24

Veronica, and I was babysitting

41:26

her. And she was a

41:28

toddler. She could climb, and I think there might

41:30

have been a little vanity stool in there

41:32

or something. And she just climbed up

41:33

there, and maybe the lid was just sitting on top of

41:35

the notch. Well, we think it was

41:38

the pump.

41:40

So all you had to do was hit the pump and it would come out? No.

41:42

This was

41:43

I'm I'm positive. The jar.

41:45

Okay. The top

41:48

was loose. And dad is confirming it was a jar, not

41:50

a

41:50

pump. Yeah. And that okay.

41:52

I think what she did

41:54

was because she if I

41:57

recall correctly, She had some on her face, on her

42:00

cheeks. Yeah. And she had

42:02

started to

42:02

put it

42:03

on, and then she goes,

42:05

and she started drawing on

42:07

the mirror with it, and then she started really getting up

42:10

on that. She was smearing it all

42:12

over. And so but

42:15

when I saw her, immediately went and tip toeed off

42:17

and got the camera going and brought it in and video

42:19

they're doing

42:19

it. And I go, you'll probably go, what'd

42:21

you do

42:23

then? And she was

42:25

singing cadre, if I

42:28

remember correctly? I don't

42:30

I don't think she was singing.

42:34

Okay. Since everyone has denied the

42:36

fact that cabaret was being sung, I'm sorry

42:38

to think that this is yet another memory

42:41

of mine that has been mixed into this

42:44

memory due to watching it on the video.

42:46

So I perhaps was the one who Beaut cadbury

42:49

at some point Sissy was the one who put Nagzima

42:51

all over the mirror. The

42:52

case has been solved. The

42:55

cute thing was she was

42:58

sticking her tongue way out of her

42:59

mouth and then curled it up in the corner of

43:02

her mouth, you know, like, when somebody's

43:04

thinking about something, they stick their

43:06

tongue out kind of, you know, they're trying to figure out what to

43:08

do. And so I

43:10

said something like I said, I can

43:12

see that it's all in the tongue

43:14

is

43:15

what I that because she was doing her time around

43:17

those routines. Yep. Okay.

43:18

I remember that now from the video.

43:20

Beaut. Alright. Well,

43:21

thank you for

43:24

your take. Alright. We'll love

43:26

you.

43:26

Enjoy what you do. Bye bye. Alright.

43:29

There you have it.

43:34

Thank you for going on that journey

43:36

with me. I learned a lot about

43:39

my family and myself.

43:42

I'm now going to continue answering the up questions. This is

43:44

my show. I'm the guest, and this is

43:47

my last episode, damn it. Okay. Bonus

43:49

question. I'm just gonna pick

43:52

the the first one at the top

43:54

of my

43:54

head, what's your favorite

43:55

animal? That is a loaded question because I

43:58

am an

44:00

animal break. I'm gonna give you

44:02

my top five animals in no particular order. I'm gonna say dog,

44:06

dolphin, giraffe,

44:08

flamingo,

44:09

Horse. Horse.

44:10

Those are my

44:11

top five. Okay? I'd say

44:14

dog is number one if I had

44:16

to pick. Okay.

44:17

Last question. Everybody

44:20

gets this question. This is an

44:22

natural beauty. We celebrate our natural beauty here. What

44:24

is the most beautiful thing about you?

44:27

I cannot believe that I've

44:30

never answered this. I have never

44:32

answered this question, and I've never really

44:34

had to think about it. But I'm say

44:37

my

44:37

humor. And that

44:39

has been said a lot on this show,

44:41

not the most eloquent answer,

44:44

but the ability to find humor in situations,

44:46

the ability to make people

44:48

laugh, that's what brings

44:50

the most joy to me,

44:53

enjoy is what makes people beautiful. So

44:55

that is my answer. That is my

44:57

final answer. And that

45:00

was beautiful. And I'm pleased

45:02

about that. Okay. I haven't

45:04

written any of these questions

45:05

out. I did not prepare to

45:07

interview myself. Can you tell

45:09

me your top five favorite beauty products of

45:12

all

45:13

time. That is so

45:16

heavy and intense, but I'm here

45:20

for it. So, yeah, let's do it.

45:22

I have had the honor and

45:24

privilege of trying a lot

45:26

of products.

45:28

And I know what I like. So I'm just gonna

45:30

start with some of the things that

45:32

if I was building my own

45:36

perfect skincare routine,

45:38

what I would buy. Now,

45:40

these are not going to be cheap, and

45:42

I I apologize for that. Beaut

45:45

if you happen to be booji

45:47

as fuck and you want some

45:49

products, this is the routine for

45:52

me for a woman in her

45:54

late thirties with a baby that really hits

45:56

me and what I'm trying to do,

45:59

which is clean, effective,

46:02

beautiful products that I really

46:04

enjoy using. So first off,

46:07

I'm starting with the gradient

46:09

skincare full moon serum. Absolutely

46:12

love the serum. It is a

46:14

gorgeous gorgeous serum with

46:16

everything you need in it. It has a

46:18

hyaluronic. It has I think it has

46:20

bacucci oil, but it has some kind of retinol alternative. It's

46:22

a stunning color and bottle,

46:24

and I love the experience,

46:27

my skin absolutely loves this

46:30

product. Then I'm gonna go with the

46:32

RanaVat Jasmine

46:34

Mist. I love it so much. If I have this

46:36

product, it is gone in like a month

46:38

because I just can't stop spraying it. It's

46:40

incredible. It

46:42

is opulent. The scent is incredible. I just I love

46:44

that product so much.

46:46

Then I'm gonna go with

46:49

a cream. Y'all know I love this

46:52

category. Y'all know that I'm the queen

46:54

of creams. I'm gonna

46:56

go with the puff of love by Capris.

46:59

This is an insanely expensive

47:02

product, insane.

47:04

Oh, god. I'm gonna Google it real quick to tell

47:06

you how much the bottle is. It's truly

47:08

obscene how much it is, but I can't

47:10

even tell you how good this

47:13

is. It makes your

47:16

skin snatch. Like you

47:18

truly feel a lift when you put this

47:20

product on. This is a

47:22

hundred and sixty five dollars for a one

47:24

point six ounce. I have

47:26

never bought this product. It

47:28

was sent to me and I used

47:30

every molecule of it because it

47:32

was incredible.

47:34

Kipris, KYPRIS puff of

47:36

love. The bottle is stunning. I kept

47:38

it. It's on my shelf in my bathroom because

47:40

I just wanna keep it as a memorial

47:43

to this moment where I got to use this product, but I'm not gonna pay

47:46

for it again. But again, if anyone out

47:48

there is an oil

47:50

baroness, perhaps you've robbed a bank or

47:52

something like that, Keeper's puff

47:54

of love anytime moisturizer.

47:56

I mean, it's incredible. A

47:58

runner-up would be the cream that I

48:00

got bed on. Which I don't even buy anymore because

48:02

again it's expensive, but Ben buys it for

48:04

himself. And every time I'm in his

48:06

bathroom, I use it. And

48:09

that would be the Berlin skin

48:11

sandalwood cream. This is the

48:13

most luxurious, beautiful cream.

48:16

Other than the Kippress, it's the second

48:18

best cream. And it ain't

48:20

cheap. It's a gorgeous

48:22

product. The scent, the texture.

48:24

It's got this kind of

48:28

bouncy texture. And it just glides

48:30

over your face, but my skin loves it and looks

48:32

so beautiful with it. are

48:36

the two creams. Now if I'm

48:38

sealing it all in, the

48:40

best beauty oil of all time as far

48:42

as I'm concerned is the Lolly Beauty

48:44

nachbutte tank

48:44

Natch. I

48:46

have a bottle of it at all times. I

48:48

love it. I love the scent.

48:51

It is at this point when I

48:53

put it on, it just I'm relaxed. I I enjoy

48:55

the whole ritual of the product. I'm so proud of

48:57

that product. I'm gonna say that

48:59

doo skin under eye

49:02

forever masks

49:04

They're great. I tried all kinds

49:06

of things underneath them for

49:09

under eye area. And

49:11

I think the one I like the best

49:14

is just a hyaluronic

49:16

serum. I've used the sweet chef one.

49:18

It's only

49:20

twenty dollars. I love the Yossiya hyaluronic, again, a little

49:22

more expensive, or I use the

49:24

good molecule YERMOMATE under

49:26

eye gel. Those are the three things that I put

49:30

underneath. The forever IMS. But that product is

49:32

truly one of the best

49:34

products that I think has ever come

49:36

out in the eye

49:38

care space. I've completely

49:40

abandoned eye cream. I don't have time

49:42

anymore. I have to cut steps. So I use

49:44

whatever my moisturizer is under my eye,

49:46

and I think it's just doing

49:48

fine. So take it from me, the last episode of Nishu, Cream

49:50

is in fact a scam. I am going on

49:52

record with that. So there you

49:54

go. Those are my favorite

49:57

skin care products of

50:00

all time. Acast

50:06

powers the world's

50:07

best podcast. Here's a show

50:09

that we recommend. Hi

50:13

friends. It's me, Sharon McMahon. Host

50:16

of, here's where it gets interesting.

50:18

And we've been working hard on a new

50:20

documentary series

50:22

called that explores the incarceration of Japanese

50:24

Americans in the United States

50:26

during World War two.

50:28

So join me as I talk with experts

50:30

and share firsthand accounts

50:32

that detailed the resilience shown by

50:34

one hundred and twenty thousand Japanese

50:38

Americans who endured wartime imprisonment right

50:40

here in America. And on October twenty

50:42

fourth, we conclude our series with

50:46

a special sold. Doctor George Takes, it's down with me to talk

50:48

about his family's experience

50:50

behind the barbed wire fences of

50:52

an incarceration

50:54

camp. Don't miss it

50:56

because here's work. It's interesting. Acast helps

50:58

creators launch, grow and

51:01

monetize their podcast everywhere. Acast

51:05

51:10

Okay.

51:12

The final question for me, for myself. The

51:14

final question for myself is

51:16

what are your self care

51:20

rituals? Now, this question

51:22

is hard to answer

51:24

Beaut currently, self care has

51:26

taken a a major backseat in my

51:29

life. Due to the major life

51:31

change that just occurred of me

51:33

having a child. When I have

51:35

a chance to be

51:37

alone, and I'm not taking care of a baby and I don't have

51:39

work or anything like

51:40

that. I

51:41

love a bath. Now this does not

51:43

happen very often. This happens

51:45

at this point once a month, maybe once every

51:47

two weeks. I take a

51:50

bath. I pour in

51:51

my alvarum bath

51:54

oil. I watch Kardashians on Hulu on

51:56

my phone, or I watch

51:58

TikTok on my phone. That's

52:01

my self care. Now,

52:03

I have had such an

52:06

interesting relationship

52:09

with the Kardashians I don't actively support

52:11

them, meaning I don't make it a habit to buy their

52:14

products. I did buy some Kylie at the

52:16

beginning before I

52:18

really realized what that

52:20

meant. I have bought a few

52:22

Skims and the woman makes an

52:24

incredible product, I will say.

52:26

And I do find their

52:28

show entertaining. For various reasons, I do not

52:30

agree with their environmental

52:32

hazards the way they live

52:34

their life environmentally. The private

52:38

jets are really not okay. They're very very

52:40

wasteful. I don't like

52:42

flaunting of excessive wealth.

52:44

I find it insulting to most

52:48

people. Because it's hard to make a living in

52:49

this world. But I do find

52:52

certain things very aspirational. Like, I

52:54

think Chris Jenner is a

52:56

brilliant business. Woman and

52:58

I really respect her

53:00

and what she has done and what

53:02

she has built with her family. I find

53:04

it incredibly

53:06

inspiring. I will also say that now that I'm a mommy,

53:08

I find her to be such

53:10

a wonderful mom and such

53:12

a supportive, beautiful mom. And

53:16

the way she speaks about her children, the way she just supports

53:18

them no matter I

53:20

really, really love that and

53:24

I honestly really love and admire

53:26

the sisterhood among the sisters.

53:28

And again, how they just

53:31

with all gun sprays and support each other and are

53:33

there for each other. I I really do find

53:35

that beautiful. The other

53:38

day, I was in the bath and I watched

53:40

Kardashians and I got out of the bath and I went

53:42

into Ben's room and I said Ben, I

53:44

wanna have another

53:46

kid because I just want

53:48

my kids to like, the

53:50

Kardashians in the in a sense that they support each

53:52

other and are there for each other. I think I find their

53:54

relationships with each other

53:56

very beautiful. I don't like the private jets, and I don't like the

53:58

flaunting of excessive wealth among some

54:00

of their other issues, problematic

54:02

issues. But

54:04

Beaut I also I'm still in the fence about having

54:06

another kid. I just wanna make that clear.

54:08

It's looking like it's

54:10

a no for me. But I

54:13

do admire a sibling relationship

54:15

like that. It's one that I

54:17

have with my sister and it's beautiful and and

54:19

I wish everyone

54:22

with sibling could have something like that because it really is

54:24

beautiful. Okay. So that's a big self care ritual.

54:26

It's just a quiet bath by

54:27

myself. I I don't spend any time

54:30

alone really. Anymore.

54:32

Sleep is a big one for me.

54:34

I've worked very hard on my sleep

54:37

quality. It's not great.

54:39

These stays. definitely gotten worse

54:42

recently, but I stopped taking medication,

54:44

so I'm off my anxiety meds.

54:47

I've gone off of it, so I'm kind of back in my

54:50

insomnia ish time, but

54:52

I've been working very hard on my sleep

54:54

hygiene in the quad in my sleep. I use my ora ring

54:56

to track my sleep. And I really think

54:59

that it's gotten much better with the

55:01

help of my ora ring. Or

55:03

ring is like an apple watch, but you

55:05

wear it on your finger, and it tracks

55:08

everything you do, it tracks your

55:10

steps, and your heart

55:12

rate and your sleep and things like that. It's

55:14

really interesting technology and

55:16

wearing it for the past year

55:18

has been very interesting in eye opening.

55:21

If anyone out there wants to

55:24

use an or a ring, I do have like

55:26

two or three reference codes that I

55:28

can give out as a

55:30

fifty dollar discount. Now it's a personal code. It's not

55:32

an affiliate link or anything like that.

55:34

It's literally just they give five of them

55:36

out to everyone, and I think I

55:38

have three. If anyone wants one

55:40

and you're interested in ordering.

55:42

DME, and it's FirstComfort

55:44

served, but I do find them fun.

55:46

And it's a great gift. I got one for Ben and

55:48

he loves it. So

55:52

that's what I would say is

55:54

my self care ritual,

55:56

working on my sleep, bath

55:59

time, vegan food, the

56:01

vegan movement, pilates

56:03

on a reformer, when

56:06

I can get out in the world, which I've been trying to

56:08

do more. And that's it. I would

56:11

have said quality time with my dog, but

56:13

I barely get that anymore. And

56:16

I can't say that self care is taking care of my child. I absolutely

56:18

love doing it, but it is very hard

56:21

work, and it exhausts me.

56:24

I'm telling you, there are nights where I'm like,

56:26

oh, I would rather just go to bed

56:28

than brush my teeth. That's how exhausted I

56:30

am. And that is

56:32

as a person who hosts a beauty podcast

56:34

for a living. That's a hard juxtaposition

56:37

to be walking. So that's

56:39

another look into why Nashville might be over.

56:42

But I'm gonna wrap up this episode

56:46

it really does feel crazy that this is the end. It feels

56:49

very anticlimactic. Consider this

56:51

a quiet quit, a millennial

56:54

quiet quit.

56:56

But again, don't unsubscribe and don't unfollow a for

56:59

you on Instagram because I will say this,

57:01

now that the weekly podcast

57:04

is ending, I'm planning on

57:06

doing way more content,

57:08

not around the podcast. So stick

57:10

around for that. I'm very excited about

57:14

that. I still want to be a trusted source in your life

57:16

for all things lifestyle.

57:18

So I hope you

57:21

join me on that And once again, thank

57:23

you for listening to Nashville and supporting Nashville and

57:25

being there for me. And

57:28

don't count me out

57:30

just yet. That's the last thing I'll say. I

57:32

recently did a survey

57:34

that a lot of you filled out,

57:36

and I'm very appreciative of

57:38

that. And The

57:40

survey was extremely eye opening in terms of what

57:42

my audience is interested in.

57:45

So I'm gonna take

57:47

a little time, regroup,

57:50

and I'll be back. You heard it here.

57:52

I'm not going anywhere

57:55

y'all know me. Head on over to

57:57

that Patreon if you want anymore tea, if

58:00

you want to keep up with what I'm up

58:02

to, and you deserve

58:04

to be happy if there's one thing you take

58:06

from everything. So you don't have

58:09

to be happy. And I

58:11

hope you don't like that. And

58:13

again, talk with you. This

58:21

is Jackie J signing off the episode of

58:24

Natch.
