Lodge, A, Complaint.

Chelsey Donn: 00:00:59

Thank you Trey.

Chelsey Donn: 00:01:00

'I.

Chelsey Donn: 00:01:00

Appreciate that.

Chelsey Donn: 00:01:02

'I had A' rather disturbing occurrence.

Chelsey Donn: 00:01:04

Recently 'I was walking with A' male friend who happened to be straight unusual and

Chelsey Donn: 00:01:17

Then spit in the straight.

Trey Gerrald: 00:01:20

Oh.

Chelsey Donn: 00:01:22

That to me is like so gross.

Chelsey Donn: 00:01:24

There's like so many factors about that that were A', complete turnoff to me.

Chelsey Donn: 00:01:29

One is the hawking, just the sound of the hawk.

Chelsey Donn: 00:01:35

Even as A' Jew all the time, but the, but the hawking that is going immediately

Chelsey Donn: 00:01:50

'I don't even understand.

Chelsey Donn: 00:01:52

Why anyone would think that that's appropriate.

Chelsey Donn: 00:01:54

And like also just like A' fly by outta nowhere.

Chelsey Donn: 00:01:59

We're walking the dog.

Chelsey Donn: 00:02:00

No warning.

Chelsey Donn: 00:02:02

You know what 'I mean?

Chelsey Donn: 00:02:02

It's not like, excuse me, like Donn don't know.

Chelsey Donn: 00:02:05

Like something 'I just 'I.

Chelsey Donn: 00:02:06

Think 'I have maybe more manners like maybe 'I am A' little bit more like wound up

Chelsey Donn: 00:02:13

Burp in public without saying, excuse me, and this is like that to an entirely other defense.

Chelsey Donn: 00:02:21

It's just so gross.

Chelsey Donn: 00:02:23

And the fact that people can just do that and then just continue on with

Chelsey Donn: 00:02:28

What is wrong with you?

Trey Gerrald: 00:02:29

There was no reference to it.

Chelsey Donn: 00:02:31

No 'I, mean 'I referenced it.

Chelsey Donn: 00:02:33

'I, 'I like waited A', beat 'I was like, let me give it A' beat.

Chelsey Donn: 00:02:36

Let me just see if we're gonna comment on it.

Chelsey Donn: 00:02:38

And then 'I 'I, you know, 'I was like, you're not gonna talk about the fact that you just like

Trey Gerrald: 00:02:46

Would it have been different if they hoked into like A' napkin, 'I?

Chelsey Donn: 00:02:51

Yeah, that's 'I mean that 'I is fine.

Chelsey Donn: 00:02:54

That's sort of like I'm having an allergy, I'm having A' moment, which is what he said.

Chelsey Donn: 00:02:58

He was like, my allergies, I'm sorry, but you don't need to hawk it into the street.

Chelsey Donn: 00:03:02

Like if you hawk it into like, you know you have allergies, so you have like A' paper towel

Chelsey Donn: 00:03:11

That's fine.

Chelsey Donn: 00:03:12

It's not lit.

Chelsey Donn: 00:03:13

Donn, don't know if it's littering.

Chelsey Donn: 00:03:15

'I don't know if ha liquid is biodegradable.

Chelsey Donn: 00:03:18

'I don't really wanna think about it.

Chelsey Donn: 00:03:20

Probably is Donn don't know, but like it's just gross.

Chelsey Donn: 00:03:23

Like would you wanna step in that?

Trey Gerrald: 00:03:25

Oh yeah, it is really interesting cuz 'I also think just the act itself is A'.

Trey Gerrald: 00:03:31

Little disarming like 'I recog 'I.

Trey Gerrald: 00:03:34

Recognize doing it and not acknowledging that it's just happened is like very odd, but 'I

Trey Gerrald: 00:03:44

Rarely does it go into my mouth that 'I need to like expel it.

Chelsey Donn: 00:03:49

Yeah.

Chelsey Donn: 00:03:49

'I mean if anything, like my mom used to always call me out 'I guess cuz 'I

Chelsey Donn: 00:03:55

Get A' tissue, you know?

Chelsey Donn: 00:03:57

And 'I guess like 'I wasn't really conscious of the fact that 'I was doing

Chelsey Donn: 00:04:04

Maybe it's A', similar thing, but at least that's like inside, like

Chelsey Donn: 00:04:09

I'm not making that The next person that's gonna cross the street there is problem.

Trey Gerrald: 00:04:14

Yeah, 'I.

Trey Gerrald: 00:04:14

Hear you.

Trey Gerrald: 00:04:15

It is interesting and, and you bringing up the fact that it is A' straight man is an

Chelsey Donn: 00:04:27

Oh, interesting.

Trey Gerrald: 00:04:28

you like, you're not gonna like pay attention to like, Doing something

Trey Gerrald: 00:04:39

So like, like there's just this whole like that's really foul.

Chelsey Donn: 00:04:43

Not attractive.

Chelsey Donn: 00:04:44

So anyway, that just sort of bothered me and 'I figured I'd take this opportunity to

Chelsey Donn: 00:04:55

Stop doing that.

Chelsey Donn: 00:04:56

That's gross.

Chelsey Donn: 00:04:57

Okay.

Trey Gerrald: 00:04:57

Chelsey Donn: 00:05:00

Chelsey Donn: 00:05:01

There's something to be said for the like handkerchief of the day, right?

Chelsey Donn: 00:05:05

Trey Gerrald: 00:07:13

It's amber in color with like ornate, beautiful like flowers and like

Trey Gerrald: 00:07:20

Chelsey Donn: 00:07:29

Oh,

Trey Gerrald: 00:07:29

so I'm gonna share this five star review.

Trey Gerrald: 00:07:31

The reviewer's name is jd and the subject from JD is, why Do They Say For Her?

Trey Gerrald: 00:07:41

And here we go.

Trey Gerrald: 00:07:43

This was written January 24th, 2018.

Trey Gerrald: 00:07:46

Simpler times.

Chelsey Donn: 00:07:47

Yeah.

Chelsey Donn: 00:07:47

Right.

Trey Gerrald: 00:07:48

All right.

Trey Gerrald: 00:07:50

I'm A', dude.

Trey Gerrald: 00:07:52

'I.

Trey Gerrald: 00:07:52

Think A'.

Trey Gerrald: 00:07:52

Pretty classic.

Trey Gerrald: 00:07:54

Manly one too.

Trey Gerrald: 00:07:55

'I Carry A' knife.

Trey Gerrald: 00:07:57

'I don't wear skinny anything.

Trey Gerrald: 00:08:01

'I own road flares and paper maps.

Trey Gerrald: 00:08:05

And guess what?

Trey Gerrald: 00:08:06

'I dig A'.

Trey Gerrald: 00:08:08

Good candle in the wintry north.

Trey Gerrald: 00:08:12

'I don't get why candles are almost exclusively marketed to women.

Trey Gerrald: 00:08:17

What do you mean Valentine's Day gift for her?

Trey Gerrald: 00:08:21

This was A' gift from me to me and me is A'.

Trey Gerrald: 00:08:26

He.

Trey Gerrald: 00:08:27

And he has A' hairy chest upon which many A' beer have been spelt seriously.

Trey Gerrald: 00:08:34

When it's freezing cold and the sun is hibernating, there is nothing like

Chelsey Donn: 00:08:48

Wait, what did you say?

Chelsey Donn: 00:08:50

Balls.

Trey Gerrald: 00:08:52

'I did.

Chelsey Donn: 00:08:52

Okay.

Chelsey Donn: 00:08:53

Read that again.

Trey Gerrald: 00:08:55

Seriously when it's freezing cold and the sun is hibernating, there's

Chelsey Donn: 00:09:09

Oh my God.

Trey Gerrald: 00:09:10

The candles are even burning.

Trey Gerrald: 00:09:13

Very long lasting and have A' pleasant, but not too fufu smell.

Trey Gerrald: 00:09:19

I'll take it.

Chelsey Donn: 00:09:21

Hmm.

Chelsey Donn: 00:09:25

Oh my goodness.

Chelsey Donn: 00:09:26

This is interesting to me because 'I 'I don't know if it was just the way that you

Chelsey Donn: 00:09:37

Phrases 'I.

Chelsey Donn: 00:09:38

Like The reason 'I missed the balls thing was because 'I was starring the sun is hibernating

Chelsey Donn: 00:09:51

But yet 'I like automatically understand what that means, right?

Chelsey Donn: 00:09:56

Because the sun is kind of hibernating in the winter.

Chelsey Donn: 00:09:59

'I just love all the language that the natural odor of fart and balls.

Chelsey Donn: 00:10:05

It really feels misplaced.

Chelsey Donn: 00:10:08

It feels like yaha deluge

Trey Gerrald: 00:10:10

it does.

Chelsey Donn: 00:10:11

the middle of my review,

Trey Gerrald: 00:10:13

Right.

Trey Gerrald: 00:10:14

'I.

Trey Gerrald: 00:10:14

No 'I.

Trey Gerrald: 00:10:14

'I even felt that when 'I was reading it.

Trey Gerrald: 00:10:16

Right, the energy shift.

Chelsey Donn: 00:10:18

the things were going well and then you, you had to sort of like,

Trey Gerrald: 00:10:28

sully it with the

Chelsey Donn: 00:10:29

with A' ball, but you know, you said Yeah, the hairy chest with the beer and all of

Chelsey Donn: 00:10:43

Population of males that may be reading this review.

Chelsey Donn: 00:10:47

It's interesting because when you first intro the product, to me 'I was thinking, sound of

Chelsey Donn: 00:10:58

Um, so 'I was surprised when it said for her, because most of

Trey Gerrald: 00:11:03

me.

Trey Gerrald: 00:11:03

You repeated it.

Chelsey Donn: 00:11:04

yeah, because most of the time there's A' sandalwood.

Chelsey Donn: 00:11:09

That's more of A' male scent.

Chelsey Donn: 00:11:11

That's just A' scent that 'I think that 'I don't really love A' sandal with myself.

Chelsey Donn: 00:11:15

But 'I do know that it's one of those things that men seem to like,

Trey Gerrald: 00:11:19

Well it is interesting because they have like balsam fur and cedarwood and

Trey Gerrald: 00:11:39

It like looks like antique glassware, but nowhere on the actual product does it say for

Trey Gerrald: 00:11:49

And JD quotes Valentine's Day gift for her, which is not present right now.

Trey Gerrald: 00:11:56

So maybe they

Chelsey Donn: 00:11:57

but probably was.

Trey Gerrald: 00:11:59

right?

Chelsey Donn: 00:12:00

For sure.

Chelsey Donn: 00:12:02

So my question is, how do you think JD came upon this candle?

Chelsey Donn: 00:12:09

Do you think this is the first purchase of said candle 'I mean?

Chelsey Donn: 00:12:14

What do you think the circumstances were?

Chelsey Donn: 00:12:15

Cuz 'I can paint A' picture, but 'I wanna know yours.

Trey Gerrald: 00:12:19

That's A'.

Trey Gerrald: 00:12:20

Really good question.

Trey Gerrald: 00:12:20

'I don't.

Trey Gerrald: 00:12:21

'I don't know.

Trey Gerrald: 00:12:22

I've never heard of La Jo Lee Muse.

Trey Gerrald: 00:12:25

Do you know this company?

Chelsey Donn: 00:12:27

No.

Chelsey Donn: 00:12:28

And 'I have like looked at candles on Amazon.

Chelsey Donn: 00:12:31

Donn don't know.

Chelsey Donn: 00:12:31

'I mean.

Chelsey Donn: 00:12:32

I'm sure it's an Amazon brand.

Chelsey Donn: 00:12:34

Donn don't know.

Chelsey Donn: 00:12:34

I'm not sure.

Trey Gerrald: 00:12:35

'I just Googled really fast.

Trey Gerrald: 00:12:37

And all.

Trey Gerrald: 00:12:38

So their whole gimmick is they sell everywhere, but their whole gimmick is

Trey Gerrald: 00:12:45

So they are intentionally like beautiful glass pieces, some tins as well,

Trey Gerrald: 00:12:53

But yeah, that's A'.

Trey Gerrald: 00:12:54

Really good question.

Trey Gerrald: 00:12:54

How did, how did JD stumble upon this?

Trey Gerrald: 00:12:58

That's A'.

Trey Gerrald: 00:12:58

Good question.

Chelsey Donn: 00:12:59

Did JD buy this for A' lady friend and then received it and was like, oh

Chelsey Donn: 00:13:22

Few times 'I mean 'I do feel like there's enough of an emotional attachment.

Chelsey Donn: 00:13:27

To this candle that 'I don't think that this is jds first purchase.

Chelsey Donn: 00:13:32

'I think that they repurchase this candle Many times, 'I think their apartment

Chelsey Donn: 00:13:40

Maybe they're drinking their beer out of it.

Chelsey Donn: 00:13:41

Donn don't know.

Chelsey Donn: 00:13:42

'I don't know what they look like, um, after the candle has burned, but 'I feel like this is A'.

Chelsey Donn: 00:13:47

Repeat customer

Trey Gerrald: 00:13:48

And you know, 'I, it's interesting that you picked up in

Trey Gerrald: 00:13:54

'I mean, the thesis here is like, why are you, why is, why are candles marketed to women?

Trey Gerrald: 00:14:01

I'm A' man and 'I like candles.

Trey Gerrald: 00:14:02

So it's like 'I.

Trey Gerrald: 00:14:04

Stop saying it's for her cuz I'm A' man and 'I appreciate it.

Trey Gerrald: 00:14:07

Right?

Chelsey Donn: 00:14:08

Right.

Chelsey Donn: 00:14:08

Which is so interesting because it's A' five star review, yet it is sort

Trey Gerrald: 00:14:16

right?

Trey Gerrald: 00:14:16

But 'I would say that it's A' letter to Amazon because the company isn't saying for her 'I mean,

Chelsey Donn: 00:14:23

company is cuz they're the ones that are writing those Octa

Trey Gerrald: 00:14:27

But they're not branding it on the actual product.

Trey Gerrald: 00:14:29

It's like the keyword you search.

Chelsey Donn: 00:14:32

Right.

Trey Gerrald: 00:14:33

Which is more marketing than, well, whatever.

Trey Gerrald: 00:14:36

But this whole thesis is sort of A' conversation that 'I think is A' little tired and played

Chelsey Donn: 00:14:45

It's too, right?

Chelsey Donn: 00:14:46

Like it's not, I'm, it's too frilly of me to admit that 'I like A' candle, but

Trey Gerrald: 00:14:54

Right.

Trey Gerrald: 00:14:55

And full disclosure, 'I found this review A' very long time ago, and

Chelsey Donn: 00:15:03

Thick,

Trey Gerrald: 00:15:04

the thick body wash 'I thought, okay, I'll probably never do that candle review

Trey Gerrald: 00:15:11

But what's interesting to me is there is some nuanced difference here because they

Trey Gerrald: 00:15:20

Language

Chelsey Donn: 00:15:21

Totally.

Chelsey Donn: 00:15:22

It's interesting 'I wonder if it's because we experienced the thick review that

Chelsey Donn: 00:15:32

I'm A' burly.

Chelsey Donn: 00:15:32

You know, like 'I 'I.

Chelsey Donn: 00:15:34

Wonder if that's why.

Chelsey Donn: 00:15:36

But 'I do think that there's some interesting poetic language and that

Chelsey Donn: 00:15:41

And it, it is kitch, but it's not 'I can't explain it.

Trey Gerrald: 00:15:45

Well that is what's interesting cuz if 'I were to sort of like, okay, so maybe 'I was

Trey Gerrald: 00:15:54

If 'I was thinking maybe JD

Chelsey Donn: 00:15:56

I'm A', dude.

Chelsey Donn: 00:15:57

I'm A' Manly dude,

Trey Gerrald: 00:15:59

Yes.

Trey Gerrald: 00:15:59

If JD was more misogynistic, I'm A', dude.

Trey Gerrald: 00:16:02

'I.

Trey Gerrald: 00:16:02

Think A'.

Trey Gerrald: 00:16:03

Pretty classic Manly one too.

Trey Gerrald: 00:16:06

'I carry A' knife.

Trey Gerrald: 00:16:08

Implying that women or effeminate men don't carry knives.

Trey Gerrald: 00:16:12

'I don't wear skinny anything.

Trey Gerrald: 00:16:14

'I don't wear skinny anything is probably 'I.

Trey Gerrald: 00:16:16

The lowest bar 'I.

Trey Gerrald: 00:16:18

Think in this review, like the whole hairy chest thing, like 'I, don't know.

Trey Gerrald: 00:16:23

For whatever reason, it doesn't occur as offensive to me as A' man.

Trey Gerrald: 00:16:26

As A' gay man.

Trey Gerrald: 00:16:28

And it didn't seem like it was offending you as A' woman either,

Chelsey Donn: 00:16:32

No 'I.

Chelsey Donn: 00:16:32

Mean 'I.

Chelsey Donn: 00:16:33

Think that, yeah, you could have read it that way.

Chelsey Donn: 00:16:34

I'm sort of glad you didn't.

Chelsey Donn: 00:16:35

'I did say like, that was sort of my first note.

Chelsey Donn: 00:16:38

It's like Donn.

Chelsey Donn: 00:16:38

Don't know if I'm reacting to the way that you read this, but 'I think that it's because we have

Chelsey Donn: 00:16:52

This shouldn't be for women.

Chelsey Donn: 00:16:53

This should only be for

Trey Gerrald: 00:16:54

Right.

Chelsey Donn: 00:16:56

Why are you giving this to women?

Chelsey Donn: 00:16:58

This should just be A' man's thing, bad women.

Chelsey Donn: 00:17:01

It's just like 'I.

Chelsey Donn: 00:17:03

Why should 'I have to be ashamed that 'I like this candle, it's almost like A' self-reflective.

Chelsey Donn: 00:17:10

Like maybe this was like A' therapy assignment or something for JD to be like, you're so 'I,

Chelsey Donn: 00:17:22

Like candles and maybe you could be A'.

Chelsey Donn: 00:17:24

Part of the difference of men not feeling like they need to just hide behind their knives and

Trey Gerrald: 00:17:40

'I 'I.

Trey Gerrald: 00:17:41

Think that's what it is.

Trey Gerrald: 00:17:42

That's what 'I think it is, because 'I.

Trey Gerrald: 00:17:44

Because 'I, 'I actually think JD is saying 'I identify in these manly

Trey Gerrald: 00:17:53

'I also appreciate that like when it's cold, 'I can like cuddle up and

Trey Gerrald: 00:18:01

It's so nice and, and it does cover up my fart and balls 'I.

Trey Gerrald: 00:18:05

That's why it stood out to us so much because it did feel so poetic and sort

Chelsey Donn: 00:18:13

yeah, 'I mean, and, but maybe at the same time it's like, Meant for that guy

Chelsey Donn: 00:18:25

Like woman gift.

Chelsey Donn: 00:18:26

You know what 'I mean And then like this comes up.

Chelsey Donn: 00:18:29

So maybe that's why JD is, is trying to appeal to that kind of audience and being like, whoa, whoa.

Chelsey Donn: 00:18:35

Like 'I am like you maybe reading this review and 'I really like this candle for myself.

Chelsey Donn: 00:18:42

So don't be so quick to just label this as like, You know, A', gruely gift because

Trey Gerrald: 00:18:50

Right.

Trey Gerrald: 00:18:50

And.

Trey Gerrald: 00:18:51

The last sentence really is like getting rid of all the flower language and just saying

Trey Gerrald: 00:19:05

So what do you think fufu means?

Chelsey Donn: 00:19:07

'I do think that there's like maybe A', lot of like undertone

Trey Gerrald: 00:19:16

Well, 'I, 'I think so too, but for some reason it's like funny to me.

Trey Gerrald: 00:19:20

'I it.

Trey Gerrald: 00:19:21

It seems like an, it doesn't seem offensive, but like 'I.

Trey Gerrald: 00:19:25

Guess Like 'I.

Trey Gerrald: 00:19:26

Mean.

Trey Gerrald: 00:19:26

'I guess you're right.

Trey Gerrald: 00:19:27

Like you're broadcasting so hardcore that you're not

Chelsey Donn: 00:19:30

Right.

Chelsey Donn: 00:19:31

Like why do you feel like you need

Trey Gerrald: 00:19:32

is this labeled as feminine?

Chelsey Donn: 00:19:34

And, and to be fair, this is 2018 'I.

Chelsey Donn: 00:19:37

Think we've gotten more and more and more 'I.

Chelsey Donn: 00:19:40

Progressive.

Chelsey Donn: 00:19:41

Well, at least in my communities, 'I, 'I.

Chelsey Donn: 00:19:43

Obviously certain things are terrifying that are happening right now, but, um, we're,

Trey Gerrald: 00:19:48

this whole fufu, this whole, like you brought up the sandalwood, like

Chelsey Donn: 00:20:07

'I love.

Chelsey Donn: 00:20:09

'I Love A'.

Chelsey Donn: 00:20:10

WoodWick

Trey Gerrald: 00:20:10

Me

Chelsey Donn: 00:20:11

love A', WoodWick.

Chelsey Donn: 00:20:12

'I.

Chelsey Donn: 00:20:12

Think WoodWick are genderless, but 'I do think that, but 'I do think 'I agree with

Chelsey Donn: 00:20:29

'I wouldn't, 'I would have A' WoodWick.

Chelsey Donn: 00:20:31

Like these are things that 'I would check off.

Trey Gerrald: 00:20:34

So then here's my question to play devil's advocate here.

Trey Gerrald: 00:20:38

Is there any sort of, are you getting any sense 'I.

Trey Gerrald: 00:20:42

That 'I.

Trey Gerrald: 00:20:43

Guess what I'm trying to p I'm, I'm trying to discern there were no females leaving reviews

Trey Gerrald: 00:21:02

It should be for me because I'm A' man and I'm like the dominant gender in the

Chelsey Donn: 00:21:09

well, that's what 'I was saying before, like, 'I

Trey Gerrald: 00:21:13

'I don't

Chelsey Donn: 00:21:14

it's, that he's, he's doing that 'I, get the impression that he's saying 'I.

Chelsey Donn: 00:21:19

It might be for women, but it's also for men.

Chelsey Donn: 00:21:22

And the problem isn't, we're including women in the statement, but the problem is that

Trey Gerrald: 00:21:38

But then to me, as someone who isn't concerned, 'I, mean 'I.

Trey Gerrald: 00:21:42

Guess 'I have A' high concern for being masculine because I've been taught that in my culture.

Trey Gerrald: 00:21:46

But to me, 'I.

Trey Gerrald: 00:21:48

'I, especially in this example that they quote Valentine's Day gift for her.

Trey Gerrald: 00:21:54

To me, that just sounds like marketing.

Trey Gerrald: 00:21:56

It doesn't sound to me like they're saying this candle is only for women.

Trey Gerrald: 00:21:59

It's like, how do we get even more niche to get even more buyers like eyes

Chelsey Donn: 00:22:04

It is, but 'I really think that that's the inherent problem with Amazon.

Chelsey Donn: 00:22:08

And I've said it for A' long time and it's what really annoys me is 'I.

Chelsey Donn: 00:22:11

Just wish that they could have some sort of title for the product and then have

Chelsey Donn: 00:22:22

But it really degrades A'.

Chelsey Donn: 00:22:24

Lot of these products when we're, because of all these buzzwords in the title,

Chelsey Donn: 00:22:32

The, the, the old lady at home.

Chelsey Donn: 00:22:34

Like, you know, like just stop it already.

Chelsey Donn: 00:22:36

Like it's annoying,

Trey Gerrald: 00:22:38

'I mean.

Trey Gerrald: 00:22:38

It's funny to me that like 'I as A' gay man was more offended by thick than 'I am by the

Trey Gerrald: 00:22:50

'I mean, it's like interesting, like it, it's interesting how it's occurring

Chelsey Donn: 00:22:54

'I don't think that many men would be taking this stance, right?

Chelsey Donn: 00:22:58

Like, But 'I think that that's what's curious about it is 'I think that JD is representing

Trey Gerrald: 00:23:10

on their hairy

Chelsey Donn: 00:23:11

spill beer on their hairy chest, and then are sticking their cameras

Trey Gerrald: 00:23:21

so, all right.

Trey Gerrald: 00:23:22

What's the value?

Trey Gerrald: 00:23:23

Is there any new or unique info in this?

Chelsey Donn: 00:23:26

'I.

Chelsey Donn: 00:23:26

Mean 'I.

Chelsey Donn: 00:23:27

Guess that.

Chelsey Donn: 00:23:28

For me, just that 'I 'I thought it was A' more masculine scent.

Chelsey Donn: 00:23:32

And so I'm sort of like validated in that feeling of, this seems like A' scent that men

Trey Gerrald: 00:23:42

Right, and then obviously they do end with the fact that like

Chelsey Donn: 00:23:45

and that Yeah.

Chelsey Donn: 00:23:46

They give

Trey Gerrald: 00:23:47

of the candle itself, separate of the scent.

Chelsey Donn: 00:23:49

yeah.

Chelsey Donn: 00:23:49

But in kind of A' way that we don't love, which is that like PS hears the review,

Trey Gerrald: 00:23:54

Right.

Trey Gerrald: 00:23:56

Yeah.

Chelsey Donn: 00:23:57

But again, this was A' type of review that is falls

Chelsey Donn: 00:24:03

Right, which leads into like the humor and entertainment 'I.

Chelsey Donn: 00:24:07

Yeah.

Trey Gerrald: 00:24:07

'I.

Trey Gerrald: 00:24:07

Think it's humorous and 'I.

Trey Gerrald: 00:24:09

I'm very entertained and I'm even sort of like 'I.

Trey Gerrald: 00:24:13

Dissecting it and sort of expecting like, what is the ginger norm?

Trey Gerrald: 00:24:17

And like, it's like sort of thoughtful and 'I think that's

Chelsey Donn: 00:24:19

Yeah.

Trey Gerrald: 00:24:20

JD is is thoughtful in their language.

Chelsey Donn: 00:24:24

And because like the spelling and grammar was really good.

Chelsey Donn: 00:24:27

It was clearly, you know, well written.

Chelsey Donn: 00:24:30

There was thought that went into writing this.

Chelsey Donn: 00:24:32

It wasn't A'.

Chelsey Donn: 00:24:33

Lot of times, you know, we read these joke reviews and they're just like, both balls, balls, balls,

Chelsey Donn: 00:24:40

And you're just like, no.

Chelsey Donn: 00:24:42

And 'I don't love the fact that they threw that in there.

Chelsey Donn: 00:24:45

But 'I do think that it was well written and, and well thought out.

Trey Gerrald: 00:24:50

Do you think that this is typical?

Trey Gerrald: 00:24:51

Do you think other men are buying this and feeling like they're being excluded?

Trey Gerrald: 00:24:55

'I.

Chelsey Donn: 00:24:55

'I Wonder, 'I Wonder because 'I, is it because the product is marketed

Chelsey Donn: 00:25:08

Like are, do you think there are many people that are deterred, Donn, don't know.

Trey Gerrald: 00:25:11

'I 'I.

Trey Gerrald: 00:25:12

Don't know it's beyond me cuz 'I probably would want something that was more feminine.

Trey Gerrald: 00:25:16

So 'I, 'I.

Trey Gerrald: 00:25:17

Don't know.

Chelsey Donn: 00:25:17

Right.

Chelsey Donn: 00:25:18

'I think it's outside of both of our scopes.

Chelsey Donn: 00:25:20

But 'I also think that like JD is really hammering that point to us, you know, over the head.

Chelsey Donn: 00:25:27

Like they need to let everyone know that they are manly, but they still liked this candle.

Chelsey Donn: 00:25:34

So.

Trey Gerrald: 00:25:35

And it's A' five star.

Chelsey Donn: 00:25:37

And it's A' five star.

Chelsey Donn: 00:25:38

So it's not hurting the product, it's saying 'I love it.

Chelsey Donn: 00:25:41

And it, and maybe it's interesting because maybe most of the five stars are either women being

Chelsey Donn: 00:25:50

Or men being like, 'I got this for my girlfriend.

Chelsey Donn: 00:25:52

You know what 'I mean?

Trey Gerrald: 00:25:53

Right.

Chelsey Donn: 00:25:55

All right.

Chelsey Donn: 00:25:56

'I think 'I can crown jd.

Trey Gerrald: 00:25:57

Let's do it.

Trey Gerrald: 00:25:58

So ChelseyBD and 'I each have our own set of zero to five crown cards.

Trey Gerrald: 00:26:01

In an effort to be fair and not influenced by one another, we will simultaneously reveal our rating.

VOICEOVER: 00:26:09

The Queens are Tabulating to school.

Chelsey Donn: 00:26:18

Four and A' Four.

Chelsey Donn: 00:26:18

And A' half.

Chelsey Donn: 00:26:19

Okay, so Trey is holding up four and A' half crowns.

Chelsey Donn: 00:26:21

'I Am holding up three and A' half crowns.

Chelsey Donn: 00:26:23

That is A' full crown between us.

Chelsey Donn: 00:26:27

I'll go first.

Chelsey Donn: 00:26:28

'I kind of made A'.

Chelsey Donn: 00:26:31

Game time decision 'I was gonna go with four.

Chelsey Donn: 00:26:34

'I wanted to leave A' little room for like am 'I just completely desensitized because

Chelsey Donn: 00:26:46

Don't know.

Chelsey Donn: 00:26:46

That was where 'I 'I 'I like took the extra half crown off for me.

Chelsey Donn: 00:26:51

But 'I think it was A'.

Chelsey Donn: 00:26:52

Pretty interesting review.

Chelsey Donn: 00:26:53

'I really liked it.

Chelsey Donn: 00:26:54

'I thought it was entertaining.

Chelsey Donn: 00:26:56

'I liked the fact that.

Chelsey Donn: 00:26:57

JD took their time to spell check and really deliver A' document.

Chelsey Donn: 00:27:03

That was interesting.

Chelsey Donn: 00:27:04

The sun hibernating all this imagery from such what could be very like

Chelsey Donn: 00:27:12

Think that's an an unusual combination, and that's really where my three

Chelsey Donn: 00:27:17

Plus obviously it's A' five star review, so it's not hurting anybody.

Chelsey Donn: 00:27:20

Right.

Chelsey Donn: 00:27:21

Maybe that's A' little bit harsh, but just in case I'm A', little calloused from the thick of it all.

Chelsey Donn: 00:27:28

'I went with three and A' half crowns, which is maybe not fair to jd, but you made up for

Chelsey Donn: 00:27:35

So we still averaged out to four crowns, which 'I think is appropriate.

Chelsey Donn: 00:27:39

But why don't you let us know why you gave four and A' half crowns to j d.

Trey Gerrald: 00:27:44

'I.

Trey Gerrald: 00:27:45

'I think it's because 'I wanted A'.

Trey Gerrald: 00:27:47

Little bit more like, which is interesting, like 'I could listen to JD 'I, wanna

Trey Gerrald: 00:27:53

'I

Chelsey Donn: 00:27:53

was like 'I.

Chelsey Donn: 00:27:54

Feel like we've, we've definitely had A' JD before,

Trey Gerrald: 00:27:58

It's like 'I just was 'I.

Trey Gerrald: 00:28:00

It's A'.

Trey Gerrald: 00:28:00

Really fun, interesting point of view.

Trey Gerrald: 00:28:03

'I also like 'I couldn't do Review.

Trey Gerrald: 00:28:05

Queen cuz I'm not sure as you said, if like 'I am 'I creating the way in which

Trey Gerrald: 00:28:15

'I 'I don't know, but 'I 'I think ultimately JD is selling the product to me.

Trey Gerrald: 00:28:20

And 'I 'I think that even as A' gay person, I'm not offended in this reading of it.

Trey Gerrald: 00:28:25

So 'I wanna buy the candle and 'I, imagine that.

Trey Gerrald: 00:28:30

You as A' straight woman was charmed enough to where it's sort

Trey Gerrald: 00:28:34

And then if 'I was A' straight dude who hated gay people and 'I read this review,

Trey Gerrald: 00:28:42

So 'I ultimately think the impact is like, this is A', really great candle and 'I think it's funny,

Trey Gerrald: 00:28:48

And then 'I intentionally waited to share this at the end, but it does have 1,517

Chelsey Donn: 00:29:01

Amazing.

Chelsey Donn: 00:29:03

Okay.

Chelsey Donn: 00:29:03

JD 'I, like you and obviously A'.

Chelsey Donn: 00:29:05

Lot of people like you too, so good job.

Trey Gerrald: 00:29:10

anyone listening, are you in disagreement with us?

Trey Gerrald: 00:29:13

Do you think that

Chelsey Donn: 00:29:14

Are you throwing your phone across the room like

Trey Gerrald: 00:29:17

let us know.

Trey Gerrald: 00:29:17

Call in one eight five zero review.

Trey Gerrald: 00:29:19

Zero.

Trey Gerrald: 00:29:20

All right, Queen, we have reached the most regal portion of our show.

Trey Gerrald: 00:29:24

Who are you inducting today for?

VOICEOVER: 00:29:27

My, Royal, Highness.

Chelsey Donn: 00:29:29

Thank you for asking Trey.

Chelsey Donn: 00:29:30

So at this point we know that 'I have like A', very polarized relationship with my closet.

Chelsey Donn: 00:29:37

Um, I've spoken A' few times about how 'I organize the shoes in improper

Chelsey Donn: 00:29:44

Think there's A', lot of negative energy happening around my closet that 'I need

Chelsey Donn: 00:29:51

'I am going to induct velvet hangers as My Royal Highness, because 'I was thinking as 'I was

Chelsey Donn: 00:30:01

That 'I.

Chelsey Donn: 00:30:02

Oh my God.

Chelsey Donn: 00:30:02

'I can fit so much in more in my closet because 'I use these velvet hangers, number one.

Chelsey Donn: 00:30:07

Number two, 'I like forgot about how horrible my life was when things were constantly slipping

Chelsey Donn: 00:30:18

Like 'I know that 'I have issues with my closet, but my stuff falling off my hangers.

Chelsey Donn: 00:30:23

Is not one of them.

Chelsey Donn: 00:30:25

And for these velvet hangers really being the hero of the closet, really bringing

Chelsey Donn: 00:30:34

Really bringing the sun out of hibernation for me in terms of what's happening in the closet.

Chelsey Donn: 00:30:41

'I really wanted to take this moment to induct velvet hangers as my real Highness.

Chelsey Donn: 00:30:47

Are you using velvet hangers?

Chelsey Donn: 00:30:49

If you're not, you gotta get on board.

Chelsey Donn: 00:30:52

'I mean everyone's using them at this point, right?

Trey Gerrald: 00:30:54

Wait.

Trey Gerrald: 00:30:55

It's so funny that you just inducted this because last week you did an Airbnb Hell

Trey Gerrald: 00:31:03

Hell review today, 'I.

Trey Gerrald: 00:31:05

For this week and in that review, which 'I think I'm just never gonna do, cuz it's

Trey Gerrald: 00:31:11

But they talk about hangers.

Trey Gerrald: 00:31:14

So it would've been so funny if 'I had done it and then you inducted velvet hangers.

Trey Gerrald: 00:31:18

But yes, 'I also use 'I, use velvet hangers.

Trey Gerrald: 00:31:21

Myself and 'I even have them from Amazon and they curve downwards.

Trey Gerrald: 00:31:24

So you don't get those like pinch dents on your

Chelsey Donn: 00:31:27

Yes.

Chelsey Donn: 00:31:28

Ugh.

Chelsey Donn: 00:31:28

the best 'I mean the best thing in the world.

Trey Gerrald: 00:31:31

A'.

Trey Gerrald: 00:31:31

Little bit more, but the impact is so great.

Trey Gerrald: 00:31:34

'I.

Trey Gerrald: 00:31:34

'I, totally concur.

Trey Gerrald: 00:31:35

Velvet hangers, you're A' Queen.
