I know you revisit those old episodes of The Next Top Model, and you know, we thought it all changed in two thousand and sixteen, but it's always been a hellscape. That classic moment where she loses her mind on the girl, she says, we were rooting for you, We were all rooting for you. You You watch her explode on this girl who truly is just here to pursue her dreams. And then after the girl leaves, walks up to the rest of the group and goes, were y'all scared back there?
I was scared too. It's like, fuck you, Tyre, you did it. You were the scary person. I really identify with the girl in that scenario. So she was just there being like, it's all right, I don't have any emotions, and like that's how I live my life. Yeah, you know, you're nailing it. If not feeling stuff is the way to go for you. You're you're cruising. You're doing great. From chips in your racists money stuff can't tell me yep, yep, yep,
there it is. There it is. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to another phenomenal episode of My Mama Told Me, the podcast where we dive deep, deep into the pockets of black conspiracy theories, and we finally work to prove that yes, Jada Pinkett Smith maybe having a sexual affair with Ghost Tucac, but Will Smith is having sex with that bug alien who wanted sugar from men in Black. They're both cheating on each other in a futuristic heroic fashion, and I
love it. I support it. Who needs a monogamous relationship anymore? Go have sex with strange spiritual creatures, is what I say to myself at night as I lay that to my wife, resentful that she wants me to stay with her forever. How dare she I wanna fuck a ghost anyway? I'm your host, Lankst and kartaman as always coming in. I'm misbehaving, y'all. I am supposed to act like this, but this is the behavior I jokes for myself. I'm a father now, I'm not supposed to talk this way
or do these things. But baby, don't speak English, and until then, I'm gonna keep acting the way I act. You know who doesn't misbehave you know who? Really? She just shows up with just polite, respectful behavior. Every time we've ever interacted with each other. It's my guest today. She's phenomenal. She's an picturess, a singer, a performer of
all types. You know her from The Bold Type, you know her from a new Audible production called Haunt the Johnson's that she and I had the pleasure of working with each other on. She's so cool, so funny, so talented. Give it up from my guest, Miss Asia d What out? How are you your dad? Yeah? As of five days ago, there's a new human in our home. WHOA Is that
really scary? Yeah? You're gonna let me take this home? Yeah, Honestly, that was the craziest part is that, like at one point we just kind of looked over at each other and we were like, so no one else is in charge, Like like nobody else is going to intervene and be like, hey, y'all can't do that. Cut that out. Like we could do whatever we want to this human. And that's crazy. It's pretty wild. I don't trust you, but you know,
I'm just kidding. You're gonna be a great congratulation. Thanks. Yeah, I'm very excited. She's she's a cool, cool little baby. So far, we're enjoying her company quite a bit. We don't have time to talk about my stupid ass baby, because we need to get into your conspiracy theory. You came with a spiracy theory that I would say is not one that I would classically associate with the black
community of America. It is not necessarily a traditionally African American if we're gonna put that heavy ass word on it, conspiracy theory, but it is one that I think has undertones of a lot of the ship that black people complain about all the time. And I'm excited to hear your experience as a person not from America, at least originally. So let's unpack. I want to make sure I get this right. You said, my mama told me the government puts flow ride and out water as a tool for
mind control. That's right, tell me more. I think this is something. You know, my mom is white from Australia. She's a cute little Australian white lady. And then my my dad is from New York. He's black, And this is like one thing that I think everyone can agree on, Like, as far as you know, every one of my families since then, nobody trusts the government. And when I was like I think I was probably like my mom went crazy.
I mean, she's always been a little bit crazy, a little bit cookie, but she decided to buy this really expensive like we had to save up for as a family, This water filter that was supposed to take out all the fluoride had some fancy name that I don't even remember now. And you know, I don't. I don't believe any of the things that my mom says, but that one thing I had taken with me, Like, I don't
drink any type water. I drink the expensive stuff. I'moing, whoa, Okay, So so you you generally avoid what your mom says, at least in terms of her conspiratorial suggestions. Let's go that way. But with the fluoride, You're like, no, I'm body that feels thread water. It tastes it tastes safe, it tastes like protection from the government's trickery. It tastes fancy, I think is the and I'm like very brand loyal when it comes to like my water and my moisturish
when we caught dead like ashy or hydrate? Okay, and what what is may I ask? What is the best way to hydrate? If we gotta go fancy water for you? Where where you? Where's your your go to bottled product? Look, they're not paying me for this, but I'll do it. Mountain Valley. They come in the big grain bottle, the glass joints. Yeah, something about drinking out of glass. It just makes you feel like and glass is better to recycle.
I've heard. I don't even know that recycling is real anymore, if we're being honest, I feel like a lot of it's just getting dumped in the exact same landfills and we're being hold. You did a good job, big man. Thanks for thanks for helping. I'll take it. I'll take any validation I can get, yea for sure. Okay, So so you're a Mountain Valley girl. I I myself. I think if I had to pick off the top of my head, Fiji might be the thing that pops in my head. But Fiji is not good for the planet.
That feels like it's doing a lot of corrupt things, both in terms of the plastic and I don't know what y'all doing to the Fijian people to to be able to get this ship. You know what I mean. Listen, I'm gonna validate you here I know more than I thought about water. I'm realizing Fiji is Tyra Banks is water. Whoa right? Wait? Really, holy Ship? So I mean, I don't know what you would call that in terms of like degrees of separation, but like it feels like you
and Tira would be friends. Oh, I don't want that at all. Tira Banks seems super toxic and not a good person to spend time with after a while, Okay, so so your mom introduces this filtered water to your life at the time, are you resentful of being asked to specifically only drink water from this filtered space or you like, hell, yeah, Mom's on the right track. Immediately, I did make fun of her because she was convinced
that she would be able to taste the difference. So I gave her like a bunch of different glasses of water, all right, so which one? You know? Which one is the reverse osmosis was what it was called, very fancy. Yeah, and she did get it right, oh, Ship, Like she could actually taste the difference. Yeah, I don't know. I don't know. I was convinced after that, and then you know, I started to like notice the difference with my health. I was like, Oh, this has been my problem the
whole time. Fixed because I'm I'm drinking, because I've taken all that fluoride out. Now I can really stretch the way that I wanted to before I was barely touching my toes. She's doing the splits. Now, what do you think or what is your mother's claimed that the government wanted to do with all of this added fluoride? What what is besides like, obviously my control is sort of a general suggestion, but what specifically do you think they're
they're aim was with all of this? Well, from what my mom said, and I'm phoning my mom more than I would like to, but she really felt that the fluoride was there to basically numb us mm hmm. You know, my mom's an offer saying, and she's like an artist, so she's very emotional, and she was like, the fluoride isn't the water to basically numb us into the stasis so that we don't question things? WHOA, I know it's quite deep, and then I you know, I'll believe that.
It doesn't take much to convince me of that. Really, Okay, So you immediately were like, fun, Yeah, I don't want to be numb. I'll take the unfloridated. Fluoridated floridate. I don't think it's correct Florinica, Yeah, Florida. I know there's an end if you if you say a certain version of the word, and then not if you say the other virgin. So let's just say both and then that'll
be a safety check, that's right. Yeah. I mean, I like, I like emotions, and I like to feel things and question things, and you know, yeah, I just believed it, and I still believe it because you know, you hear things like around the way, okay, what like at the local bodega, they're like, hey, don't get that because florided,
Like what do you mean around the way? You know, like nobody nobody likes l A. Like people live here and I'm here now, but I feel like the city maybe the toxicity is really just because the water is so bad, you know, in New York is like a little bit better because city because the water is better.
Like I feel like there's something to this. Yeah, So you're saying that we all, despite the fact that we are all sort of resentful of our l A, experience that like we're constantly isolated and being put down by executives who should not have power at all, but somehow have the most power. Any of us can calculate that despite those bad feelings, it is the fluoride in the water that makes us okay with those bad feelings and
want to stay in this this dry, sad place. Yeah, it's like you get stuck here, you know WHOA nay, am I going too deep? Not too deep? No, it don't go too deep around here, but you are going deep and I'm enjoying. I'm enjoying spelunking with you into this, uh, this wild cave of a conversation. So you still maintain that there might be some level of mind control being introduced through water with fluoride in it. Let me ask you this question because your mother, you said, is a
person who challenges, she questions. She's an artist. She wants to feel things. Was she being raised drinking fluorinated water? What did she have water with fluoride before this? Or was she drinking not that? And then suddenly it got introduced at a certain point in her life? Well, you know, no, this this all happened very fast, and I remember it quite vividly, you know, Yeah, before that, I don't even think we had a britta in the home. We were just whatever came out of the tab. And you know,
my family is not They're not fancy. It's just just this one detail. M hm. My mom's epically has has really interested taken all the way to you know, which I think maybe makes it more believable in that way that like if you have a family where everything is expensive, everything is fancy, everything has like these specific you know, little tools on it that ensures the best quality of whatever the fuck, then you go, Okay, some of this is exaggerated. You don't actually need these things. This is
just you being pretentious. But if you just eat regular food and and sleep on regular beds, but then you're like, yo, don't fucking touch water that isn't filtered through this machine, then you go, okay, you're really passionate about this in a way that you're not in other parts of your life, which makes me think you might be onto something. Yeah. No, no, they're they're not like nobody's doing the organic thing, nobody's
doing the vegan thing. They're like on the West side of Melbourne, like you know, yeah, yeah, yeah, I have no frame or reference or what west side of Melbourne means, but it sounds awful. It sounds like the fucking streets. It's the west side, you know, like people on the east side of Melbourne called the west side of Melbourne, like the Pooh phone Oh ship. That's real. What's up that?
So I've only been to Melbourne once and I had a lovely time, and I don't know which side of it I was on, and I feel like it was like down that was probably near like a downtown. It's kind of vibe. If that's the thing that y'all have. Yeah, I don't know, Yeah, it's it's Melbourne's an amazing city. I didn't grow up there for most of my fildhood, but that's where a lot of my family are now. Yeah, Melvin's fucking amazing. But you know, the west side is known as the poof Wait. I have to defend the
west side of moment, the west side of moment. I don't want all my West Side peace to come for me. I'm just saying, I'm saying what has been said. I'm not saying my opinion of this is not you uh, you substantiating the things that they're saying. You're merely documenting what has been said Amelia documentarian. Oh sure, and what a place to start your work as a documentary And here on this uh very unhealthy podcast, super toxic thing that we've built. It is about time to get a
real job. You know, I've been playing make Believe my entire life. Yeah, this feels like Melissa McCarthy doing that Bob Ross documentary. You know. It's just we all got to commit to the real ship at some point. It's exactly like that. Yeah, okay, so your mom believes this. You you pull this into your own life. Are you then becoming the type of person who wants to spread this information to others? Are you? Like, if y'all want to be mind controlled, go crazy? I just personally don't
plan to do that. I am like a walking advertisement for Mountain Back like water book. Oh ship. You guys can't see this at home, but you pulled out the biggest bottle the human being can't hold in their hands legally of Mountain Valley that's sparkling either the red kind, that plain old red kind. And when you walk into a room with a bottle of water that's the size of like your a newborn child. Sure you can't help, but talk about it, like I'll talk about water and
my favorite moisturizer all day and I'll do it. So I would say, I'm I'm open to other people's choices, but okay, you haven't reached anti vax or protester kind of energy around water, but you are more than happy to preach the good word whenever possible. I'm quite tired most of the time, so just like leaving the house and like in going out into the world is enough for me. So no, I'm not I'm not super super
passionate about it. I'm pretty chick. You know. Some people might say you you'd feel less tired if there were fluoride in your water. If you had a big old dose of fluoride, you'd have a burst of energy. Maybe, I don't know. I would love to be proven wrong. It would I spend a lot of money on water, I'm realizing. But you know, I feel like I'm right,
all right, fair enough. I feel like I'm right. Is not really a good argument for uh, for anybody, frankly, but I do think it's an exciting one for this podcast of just being like, no, I feel like I'm right. We're good, good vibes around yeah, you know, Okay, do you or have you done any personal sort of like research examination of this conspiracy theory, like besides your mother's suggestions, have you personally ever like gone and done any of like the hard work to find out if there's legitimacy
to her claims. I like to have conversations with like straight just about it. Yeah, but I don't really want to google it just in case I'm wrong. I like, you know, I like living in this bubble of like correct you know. I think it's interesting you say that, because I don't think I've ever thought about that thought about it that way. But I do think that is in part why a lot of people turn to conspiracy
theory and don't want to let them go. Is that, Like I think a part of us is like, no, I built a beautiful bubble here, like I have all the things I need in this pocket of information, and to burst that bubble means that my things go away, and I don't want my things to go away, so I'll stay here. Yeah. It kind of starts to become part of your identity at some point too. Yeah, like your it's your belief system, you know, and and all
you have to do is just not google it. Sure, if anyone wants any tips for staying in denial, you can reach out to me. I cannot tell you how much I love the phrase. I want to put this on. If we had a website, I'd put it up there. All you have to do is not google it, and you can believe, I think in anything that's that's amazing. So okay, before we go to break, you have not
googled it. You are not necessarily interested in in bursting your bubble and finding out what's on the other side of this bad boy, but you do love talking to strangers about it. Has there ever been a conversation you've had with someone where you were like, phenomenal work, sir and or madam. You are truly adding to the joy and energy that I feel around fluoride in water conversations. Well, you know, I feel like that there's like a similar
thing that happens. Like, you know, where I grew up in Australia, there was like maybe five other black people in the entire town, and so we would like I would walk past people and you're like, not at them, You're like, what's up, Oh my god, look at you? Why are you in Australia. And and I feel like with the water thing, like if I see another person like holding a bottle of Mountain Valley, it's that same,
like what's up? This is a person in the know. Yeah, yeah, this is this is I see you, uh, sister, I see you brother. We we are one and the same in this at least in this small way. Yeah. Quite spiritual. Really, I love that Mountain Valley bringing people together, first psychotic reasons, but bringing them together all the same. How hope they do endorse us now. I hope the Mountain Valley wants a small taste of my mama told me. I hope
they're regretted immediately after, but they should like it anyway. Well, we're gonna take a break. We'll be back with more. Ashia be and more, Mama told me. And we are back. How are you? I am under the water, Please help me. Yeah, we're back here more. He should be more, my mama told me. We're still talking about the potential poisons, the mind controlled taxins being infused in our water, in our
tap water, in our everyday water. When you go to restaurants and they ask for if you want water, do you always specifically before they even get to like tap or sparkling or whatever. You always just jump ahead of that sometimes listen, Uh, I can't be good a hundred percent of the time. I will say, there are times. There are times when I've just had like, you know, like a dinner. You don't want to be like that guy, so you've got to read the room really yeah, and
I'm I'm I'm big on peer pressure. So if I'm with someone that's like no, we'll just do tapping, like yeah, of course, that's totally fine. And then I like cry the whole way home. You're like, if everybody's having some mind control, I have a little mind control. We'll split
some mind control at the table. It's nice like that. Yeah, wow, Okay, let's let's dig into some of this research because I think, I think, based on the fact that you are so committed to this conspiracy theory, a great deal of this is actually going to make you feel more confident about your decision to avoid fluoride. I think I'm not a percent sure, And keep in mind, I am an idiot. I do this research on Google, and I mostly do it for the sake of jokes, not because I'm an
actual scientist. I don't know of me waving this stick around makes me look more legitimate. But it is the stick of a of an edible arrangement that was given to us. And it's just the where the pineapple used to be. And the stick is now in my hand. I don't you know, I'm just offering you information. It's doing great things to you. I think you should keep it. Okay.
So the government claims that floride was originally added to our water as an aid in helping to reduce cavities and tooth decay by as much as twenty in both children and adults. That was the original motive for adding fluoride to the water was to make sure that your teeth do not decay. So and this originally happened around the mid forties. I think nineteen was the first introduction of fluoride to at least American water. Right in the US.
It was so widely sort of like supported by the CDC that it has now been documented as one of the ten greatest public health achievements of the twentieth century. That like, it's between this and seat belts and cars that they're like, yo, this ship is groundbreaking changes that we we made for our population in making the world a better place. So that part not as supportive of your argument, but it feels so self congratulatory, and I don't trust it. I like that. Hey wait a minute.
That's how they get you, right, is that this is all the government celebrating the government for some ship that the government did, and that feels weird. Okay. So here's where stuff starts to get even more interesting is that despite all of that self congratulation, there are recent studies that have shown that the early conclusions about floride, most of which were finished by ninety five, were deeply flawed, that they aren't as a full proof as the government
would like us to believe. I love that. I love that. You're just weighted with bated breath just for for me to be like you were right Asia. This was a
massive mistake. Now, the original studies, apparently, while they were correct in saying that there were improvements in the quality of people's teeth in terms of tooth decay and lack of cavities, all of that ship, what the studies didn't take into account is how much fluoride is being added to our dental products, which easily could account for the reduction in our decaying teeth. Right that, like there's fluoride
in our toothpaste. We brush our teeth with that toothpaste, but we spit it out and that would make our teeth better and could be the reason our teeth are improving without needing to drink the water stuffed with flor ide and poison our brains. Thoughts anything. If I had a microphone, I would drop it. I think like nothing, I did this research, but like you played your part, you were They were like, this girl seems committed to
our world, are our conspiracy, so we're doing this for her? Wow, wait, okay, go go on. I'm I'm ready for this to keep validating me. So like it's this is doing wonders. Listen. I often find myself dancing between conspiracy theorist and uh person who just wants to be free and go outside. So so sometimes I'm like, I don't know what then the government is doing, but they ain't attacking me personally.
I'll let them be. But that said, I walked into this not necessarily a firm believer in anything Floriad related. I'll drink out of a puddle. I don't give me. But apparently I probably shouldn't be doing that because there is even more evidence that fluoride does have potential downfalls. So, for example, excessive fluoride causes and this is some of the things that came out of this study, that excessive fluoride causes floor r rosis, which changes changes in tooth
enamel that range from barely noticeable white spots sustaining and pitting. Uh. Floride can also become concentrated in the bone and stimulating bone cell growth, altering the tissue structure and weakening the skeleton. So basically, too much fluoride, you know, basically does more damage to your bones than the fluoride that is helping
to prevent tooth decay actually is helping, if that makes sense. Okay, So my dad said fluoride makes your teeth full out, and I didn't bring that in my argument because I thought it was bullshit and I didn't want to like in my argument. But now I'm realizing he was right. To you all, your father a deep apology. The man was spinding truth and you ignored him and told him he was He wasn't even worth mentioning on a on a very serious podcast. He'll be very happy to know
that I have regrets about that. Here's where it gets even crazier. High levels of fluoride may be toxic to brain and nerve cells, studies say. Studies have also identified possible links to learning, memory, and cognition, deficits that it can funk up our brains even more so. There is
a recent study that came out in two seventeen. I believe that, and this is where it gets complicated, where they found some correlation between pregnant mother's drinking fluoride and the i qes of the boy babies that come on the other side of their pregnancy. That apparently floride is making boy babies dumber and for some reason not affecting
the girls. Now, this is where it gets complicated, because we're talking about a study that even the scientists who did the ship aren't saying is conclusive evidence to remove fluoride completely. They're saying, there is plenty of evidence that it's good for your teeth, and we can't prove fully that it's bad for your brain and certainly the brains of boy babies. But we are seeing a correlation and more study needs to be done to definitively say, what
needs to happen beyond this? What is the real story here? Because it seems like there's so much evidence and nobody is pulling the trigger and saying just take it out. How comp how complicated is it? I love that you're asking that question, because what a segue for me to move into the next point try this is this is a goddamn we're doing We're doing a tango here and you dipped me and I got scared, but you lifted
me back up and we're ready to keep moving. Come on, So the original because I asked that same question, right, where does this come from? If everybody is saying that fluoride has like these mixed interpretations and all of these things the problem And it turns out that in the scientific community fluoride is is like a battle right now, that they're actually having a lot of infighting in the scientific community because of the dangerous language and conversations happening
around floride. That they're afraid of releasing certain studies that say bad things about floride because it just empowers a lot of people on the internet to take that in a completely opposite or more extreme direction. So these scientists are basically saying, Yo, we did a study. Turns out there is some correlation between babies having slightly lower i q s from mothers who are drinking floride. We haven't
seen enough correlations to prove the fluoride is versa. But then a person like Alex Jones reads that study from legit scientists and goes, Floride's killing our our baby's brains. And because he has access to the exact same information that every scientist has access to and now has more followers than the c d C does, he has more power to manipulate that information, even if what he's manipulating
isn't fully correct. Well, that's why people need us. Sure, we're the only uh legit source on the floride conversation. So um, everybody, that's why they need us. Mountain Valleys number one and number two salesmen. We we are the only source that people should trust. Okay, So then it got me asking the question where did this original mind
control conversation come from? Right? Because none of this is necessarily saying that the governed to introduced it for mind control is just as saying that the government might be irresponsible in their handling and and sort of continuation of adding fluoride to our water. But it turns out that the original conversation about mind control comes from you guessed it, Nazi Germany. That Nazis used to use fluoride as a
form of exactly what your your mom said. That they used the the fluoride on the people in the internment camps and the concentration camps to sedate them and control them and keep them a little more docile than they were before. Sh Yeah, they were basically using it as a nerve gas to keep people chill while they murdered them. Do they still use fluoride and other ships? Like, I know fluoride is in our toothpaste, but and it's in our water? Yeah, I don't. I think it's a I
think it's in child alcolate apparently. I think there's some other ship that floride shows up in that isn't just water and toothpaste. If it's in the wine, I'm fucked. Oh well, that's a cool way to say you're an addict, and I love it. Thanks. I am pretty cool. People say that a lot. They don't. Yeah, I don't think that floride is just limited to water and uh, water and toothpaste, and I do think it's a lot of places.
What I will also say, being a responsible fake researcher, is that the Nazis were apparently using it as a gas and in extreme extreme doses, not as a very small addition to water. So I don't know that the effects would be anywhere near the same as they would be in drinking a all amount of it versus being fucking you know, this being the only thing you're inhaling as you are being put down in a concentration game. That's so interesting. I've never heard that before about fluoride. Yeah,
even crazier. Part of where our conspiracy theory and sort of like this continuation of the conspiracy theory comes from, is actually we're talking Hollywood earlier. It comes from Hollywood that the film Doctor Strange Love, which came out in four suggests that fluoride is being added to our water for the exact same reason that we're hearing my control
all of the things. But it's a fictional film, and so people I think are conflating the Nazis effort and this film and all of the language around it and making it a permanent fact in their lives. Rather than trusting science, be science trustworthy or not trustworthy. You know, Yeah, it's a breather. I still feel validated though, Like I don't mean to bring it back to myself, like I just I just feel that it's also valid And I'm also like I'm I'm realizing my mom is a little
smarter than I thought she was. And I know it's in small amounts, but like small amounts over our whole lifetime, Yes, it will have an effect. It probably, you know, adds up as we move. If we're talking to science, it's a lot of Yeah, it's a lot of hand motions that that aren't good for an audio medium. But you should know that we've been doing sign language through this entire episode, and we are being funny as fun with our fingers. We're doing okay on the audio version, but
we're killing with our fingers. I will say that the additional sort of like a wild part of this is the timing of everything, right that Nazi Germany is using this to control the people that are being held in concentration camps, and then in nineteen forty five America starts introducing it to our own water supply. Now, whether that was intentional or accidental as a conspiracy theorist. I look at that time and then I go, fuck you, bitch, you try to get me, and I see exactly what
motivated you trying to get me. And it's because you learn from those goddamn Nazis. Yeah, I don't trust it, not that I did before, but the timing is a little too convenient. It's it's scary the timing. Certainly now all of the government websites and this continues even to Australia, because I took some time to look up the Australian government websites and their relationship to fluoride, but all of the government websites around the world still maintain that fluoride
and is in in places where fluoride is added. A lot of countries do not add fluoride to their water, and to further support your point, they have seen the same downfall into decay as we have seen in countries where we do add fluoride to the water. Now that's not to say that the number of people with decaying teeth are equal, right Like, I'm not saying that, but I am saying that they've seen the same drop off that we have seen in terms of like the general percentage,
if that makes sense. Okay, so what the fun CDC don't know, But and I think that that's really the question that sort of lives on the back end of this. This is what the fox c DC is like. If you're telling me that this thing is still good for my teeth and it doesn't have enough damaging effect on my brain and all of the studies that are coming out are incomplete studies which all may be very true.
You have not necessarily proven why this is essential to me being able to move forward in society, in life and all of the things why this has to be in my water versus why this has been added for a reason unknown. Yeah, well, should take this to them, Like I'm ready to go all the way with this. I'm ready to not do that much, but there's some stuff and not all the way, but you know what I mean, I'm ready to uh to talk about it now and then once we hang up this zoom, probably
never talk about it again. Oh, I'll consider leaving my postcode, am I I my you know, jump on Instagram, you know social media. Please don't do that. I want to be responsible for a change in your career. Because you decided that this was enough motivation to go again, big fluoride, Big floride. Yeah, no, no, no fear of me taking to social media like ever maybe a few times, you know. Yeah,
let's set this one out. I don't know that it's worth it, but I do think and if if I were to pull any big conclusion out of everything that I read, you opting to just drink Mountain Valley sounds like a better choice than to uh to overexposure herself to whatever might be in our water. Thank you so much. I'd like to now. I know that I know they cannot hear bows, but please know she bowed in three directions,
as if the audience were circular shaped in front of her. Well, you know, a vivid imagination, an imagination brought to you by not fluoride. That's right, folks, you who can dream. If you want to stop drinking floride, start drinking water out of glass, big gas glass bottles, is what we say, big gas glass bottles. All right, we're gonna take one more break. We'll be back with more HIV and more, my mama told me, and we are. Yeah, we're back here with more Asian D more my Mama told me.
We're still talking about that goddamn floride and the government trying to trick us into drinking their mind control water. Fuck you Government, Fuck you Always, I think is maybe a better tag for this show. Fuck you Government, Fuck you always feels like the right instinct x X. I just wanted to Yeah, I don't want to be mean to him. I give them a little hugs and kisses right after I yell at them, But but I do need them to know that I'm aware of their bad behavior.
All right, let's play a game. I have a fun game plan for us. It's it's our most classic game on this podcast. It's a beautiful game called white Lie. Ugly. You're disgusting, I'm gonna kill you. Give me two white lies. This is a fun game Asia where I am going to introduce to you a commonly held white conspiracy theory, one that that white people seem to be really latching onto.
You know what I mean. And what I would love for you to do is tell me why you think this conspiracy theory is so important to the white community. What do you think they're invested in, What do you think these sneaky motherfucker's are up to you know what I mean? Hell, yeah, all right, this is a fun one. This is actually completely new to me, but apparently has been around since nineteen seventy six. But apparently, and I wonder if you've heard of this, But there is a
conspiracy theory that maintains that birds aren't real. There are no such thing as birds. I'll explain a little bit more, but looking at your face, you do not have any prior knowledge of this conspiracy theory. Great, I needs for their explanation. They're like, they're they're they're not here really Apparently there is an argument that all birds have been
systematically exterminated and replaced with exact replica drones. That these drones are basically tools of the CIA, that the the CIA poisoned off all the birds with kim trails and then replace their the birds with drones so that they could spy on their populations. And my question for you is what do you think or why rather do you think white people are so invested in this conspiracy theory? Well, I really have to tap into my Michael Cajun side with this one, like I have to, uh, you know,
my third eye really see it. Yeah, this is a really funny one to me. I personally and I have a fear of birds, so I know for a fact they're real. I've been stalked by birds. I'm sorry, but I don't think you get to continue after I've been stalked by birds. You have to explain on under what circumstances with a bird hanging out in your bushes and uh staring in at you while you showered or whatever
the funk you're you're referring to. Well, look, okay, look, I get the mistrust of birds, but they certainly exist. There's certainly there. Do you know what a magpie is? I've heard the word. I don't know that I know what you're describing, so tell me please. Okay, So a magpie is a bird in Australia. They're like black and white and at certain times of the year they get very aggressive. And I used to I used to walk
to school. I'm getting like flustered. I used to walk to school and there was this one magpie that every morning when I would walk to school was like, oh the bitch is back, and would like like magpies have killed people in Australia that I don't know if that's real. Okay, alright, wait a minute, that might be a lie, but I'm my whole life. I've heard that magpies are deadly because they they're really fast, and they like swooped down on
you and they don't give up. Like and this specific magpie specifically focused on you and had beef with you, yes, every morning, Yeah, like true beef. Like I saw the look in its eyes. It was like, oh, here she is again, fucking one. I didn't have another way to walk to school. Is the only route to get there, to look. I guess, well, now I'm buying into the whole theory. Maybe that wait a minute, oh no, what are we gonna do? Capacity really just like jump the
funk out? I you know, I guess we all kind of feel like we're being watched. This is I'm trying to have empathy here. I like where you're going. I'm listening, you know. Oh, this is so hard for me to get into this mindset because birds are so real for me personally, They're big pot of my experience here on us.
I will say that, and maybe this is this only supports your Your concern about the magpies is that crows apparently are very good at memorizing basis that they can remember human beings and have been known to seek vengeance on people who have wronged them or hurt them. Now, I've never heard of crows killing people, and certainly not in the way that you're describing where it's like a needle point to the neck like the magpies. But there
is evidence of crows. You throw a rock at a crow, and the next day that same crow is like, you know, crowing at you from the trees because it recognizes a bit. You don't want that through that rock, I'll never forgive you. I mean, I will say that I think like white people think maybe that the government is smarter than they are. You know, I got a little piece of cordboard to say that I was vaccinated, and we just had like
a sticker on it. So I don't know. I don't know if I believe, you know, that they're capable of like creating this drone that remembers, you know, and is going to attack you with such precision. But I think I think maybe that that's where we kind of that's
where that's where the part of me just splits into. Yeah, I will say I like that argument, though, I think that's a reasonable argument that that has long been proven through a lot, especially in the COVID of it all, is that like, white people really think the government is like this brilliant, evil entity, like sort of world power
that's just controlling every facet of our lives. And I think people who have been more actively abused by the government, certainly uh intentionally abused by the government, would say, like, now, these motherfuckers ain't smart. They're just rich and powerful and can do whatever they want, and they don't care about our well being one way or the other. So they're not smart. They're just doing stuff because they can, yes, exactly, And so they're probably not replacing birds with drones or
putting microchips in the in the vaccines. They're probably just like trying out some some ship on us, and if it works, they win, and if it doesn't, they'll say sorry in eighty eight years when no one else is alive, throw some fluoride in there. It sounds nice, and that's a nice ring to it. Let's just you know, throw it in there, we'll see what happens, and if we control them afterwards, that's fucking sweet. That's a sweet plus one to this wedding invite. You know. Hell, yeah, well, Asia,
I think we did it. I think I think we nailed the episode truly, truly one of our more classic uh definitely our most classic sign language episode, one of our more classic episodes. All in all, Could you tell the people where they can find you and what cool ship you have going on? Oh? Sure, I'm I'm on social media and stuff because I have a millennial. I'm at ice Train on Instagram. I haven't been on Twitter in about five years, but I'm there too, and you know,
I'm chilling right now. I'm unemployed and it's lovely. But check out our aldival series. Yeah, do that unemployed ship. That's right, I'm fun employed. Okay, that sounds sick. That sounds like a person decaying, but unemployed in loving it. I can live with that. But fun employed sounds like you're hanging out at the mall and getting phone numbers, and I don't want that for you, so so don't be fun employed. It's fine. It'll all be over soon, so I'm trying to enjoy it while I can, you know,
leep in stuff like that podcast. Well, please follow Asia and as always, you can follow me at Linkston Kerman on all platforms, And if you want to send us stripes, if you want to send us your own conspiracy theories, if you just want to send hateful messages to me personally that will break my heart and and you know what, stunned my fucking daughter, then you can send those to my mama pod at gmail dot com. We would love
to hear from you, me and the baby. Otherwise, I don't know, by bitch, my crop chips in your Quala bears are racists? Money stuff I can't tell me
