  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah.
• 0:00
  >> Shaloah Powell: I've seen people eat, like, steaks, like, many
• 0:03
  steaks in the shower, and they post it on their facebook,
• 0:06
  and they're like, I'm in America, so I think it's steak.
• 0:09
  >> Hunter Hoover: Who are these people?
• 0:16
  Welcome back to privy. Privy is a
• 0:19
  podcast about bathrooms recorded
• 0:22
  from my home bathroom. I'm your host, Hunter
• 0:24
  Hoover, and I'm joined this week, uh, in home
• 0:27
  restroom. Uh, is this the weirdest
• 0:30
  outing you've had to someone's house? You could. It's
• 0:33
  fine.
• 0:34
  >> Shaloah Powell: A little bit.
• 0:35
  >> Hunter Hoover: Awesome.
• 0:35
  >> Shaloah Powell: A little bit.
• 0:36
  >> Hunter Hoover: I'm joined by Shaloah Powell. I almost,
• 0:39
  uh, said your maiden name, and then.
• 0:41
  Yeah, that's all right.
• 0:43
  >> Shaloah Powell: I'll take both.
• 0:43
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah. I knew you for so long prior to being wed,
• 0:46
  but now you are very much wed, so.
• 0:49
  >> Shaloah Powell: Yeah, almost two years.
• 0:50
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah, yeah. Like,
• 0:53
  December will be too, right?
• 0:55
  >> Shaloah Powell: Yeah, it'll be due beginning of December.
• 0:57
  >> Hunter Hoover: That's wild. Yep. It flies
• 1:00
  by. So how are you? You
• 1:02
  are?
• 1:03
  >> Shaloah Powell: I'm good. I'm good. I feel very pregnant.
• 1:06
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah. Yeah. Jason has. Jason
• 1:09
  has shared a bit about your process, but
• 1:12
  I'm sure, uh, it's different coming from you.
• 1:15
  >> Shaloah Powell: Yeah, yeah.
• 1:16
  >> Hunter Hoover: Uh, is the 95 degree outside
• 1:20
  that I complain about, is it? It's probably
• 1:22
  just fine with that in pregnancy and nothing's bad.
• 1:26
  >> Shaloah Powell: Well, I did
• 1:29
  have a fainting problem that I had to resolve
• 1:32
  with my provider, but, um, due to the
• 1:34
  heat, so not exactly.
• 1:37
  >> Hunter Hoover: Do you guys have ac?
• 1:38
  >> Shaloah Powell: Yeah.
• 1:39
  >> Hunter Hoover: Okay. That's.
• 1:40
  >> Shaloah Powell: Yeah, I'm good inside.
• 1:41
  >> Hunter Hoover: Okay. That's good work.
• 1:42
  >> Shaloah Powell: Has aC. Home has ac. We're perfect.
• 1:44
  >> Hunter Hoover: Good. Okay. Um, and do you want to share a
• 1:47
  little bit about your job? I don't know if you can. Jason's not allowed to talk
• 1:50
  about his job. And some people are like, yeah, I.
• 1:52
  >> Shaloah Powell: Love talking about Jason Sherburne. And I. Can
• 1:55
  I change names and
• 1:58
  genders and ages, but because I have to comply
• 2:01
  with HIPAA. But I am a dental front
• 2:03
  desk at, um, a very
• 2:06
  busy clinic because, you know, hot tip.
• 2:09
  If you have, uh, oHP and you live in
• 2:11
  Oregon, there's a shortage of dentists,
• 2:14
  so make an appointment because we're booked into April.
• 2:17
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah, that makes sense, because our dentist, they don't even like
• 2:20
  our insurance.
• 2:21
  >> Shaloah Powell: Like, and now most places
• 2:24
  don't take united healthcare, so we're one of the few
• 2:27
  that do.
• 2:28
  >> Hunter Hoover: Ah, I remember the United days. We had united
• 2:31
  when I worked in Salem. We liked it.
• 2:34
  It was good.
• 2:35
  >> Shaloah Powell: Uh, as someone who, uh, sends
• 2:38
  out the claims, you're like, no,
• 2:41
  they're liars.
• 2:43
  >> Hunter Hoover: Oh, really?
• 2:44
  >> Shaloah Powell: Um, you like, we'll give them the doctor's note and all
• 2:46
  the things they need, and then they're like, you never gave us that.
• 2:49
  You never sent out the pre auth. We're gonna deny this claim. And
• 2:52
  then you have, like, a sweet old lady
• 2:55
  fighting $3,000 that was denied.
• 2:58
  They said they'd approve for three months until they're like, okay,
• 3:01
  I guess we'll pay it.
• 3:02
  >> Hunter Hoover: That's awful.
• 3:03
  >> Shaloah Powell: So they deserved it.
• 3:04
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah. That sucks when it's like, like older folks
• 3:07
  that are on fixed income that get taken
• 3:10
  advantage of by that. Ah, that's awful.
• 3:12
  >> Shaloah Powell: It's always the sweet old medicare ladies that they screw over.
• 3:15
  >> Hunter Hoover: Do you see that pretty frequently there? Yeah, that
• 3:17
  sucks. That would make me angry
• 3:20
  at, uh, I guess, my government. I don't know.
• 3:23
  It's easy to be mad at the government.
• 3:25
  >> Shaloah Powell: Well, that's the nice thing about ohp, is they're very clear about what
• 3:28
  they do and don't pay.
• 3:29
  >> Hunter Hoover: Right.
• 3:30
  >> Shaloah Powell: And then if they aren't clear about it, they're like, oh, we weren't clear
• 3:32
  about it, so we'll pay that.
• 3:34
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah. So, so working in the dentist's
• 3:37
  front desk, have you ever had, like, has anybody
• 3:40
  had. I have to ask. Has anybody ever had a
• 3:43
  bathroom accident in the dentist's office?
• 3:45
  >> Shaloah Powell: Oh, yeah. Mostly little
• 3:47
  kids that they get
• 3:50
  scared or,
• 3:52
  um, one thing we'll do is like, oh, mom
• 3:55
  needs to get a filling. Couldn't get a babysitter. We're like, oh,
• 3:58
  uh, your kid's, like, seven. It's fine. They can
• 4:01
  color in the lobby. As long as they don't have needs. They
• 4:04
  can hang out with you in the room. They can hang out in
• 4:07
  the lobby. It's a very small clinic, so it's, like,
• 4:10
  right there. But there are a few times where the kid, like,
• 4:13
  doesn't want to ask, and then they just end up
• 4:15
  peeing themselves.
• 4:16
  >> Hunter Hoover: So I guess, oh, my gosh.
• 4:18
  >> Shaloah Powell: Um. Or, like, we've had
• 4:21
  some other folk, like, you
• 4:23
  know, you get pregnant ladies in the chair and older folks,
• 4:26
  but those, we don't talk about those ones. You
• 4:29
  pretend those don't exist. Just the little kid
• 4:32
  ones exist.
• 4:33
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah, we. There was a. Yeah, we
• 4:36
  had a lady where I work at the school had
• 4:39
  an accident one time, and we just. Everybody just pretended like it didn't exist.
• 4:42
  It was the best path forward.
• 4:43
  >> Shaloah Powell: I mean, I've had an accident at work, so.
• 4:46
  No, I did.
• 4:49
  >> Hunter Hoover: Did you call jason?
• 4:50
  >> Shaloah Powell: So I had really, really bad. So my first
• 4:53
  trimester every day had a two to four hour window
• 4:56
  where I could eat. And if it wasn't that
• 4:59
  window? I was constantly throwing up.
• 5:02
  So one day I threw up so hard
• 5:04
  that it came out my nose and
• 5:07
  I peed myself.
• 5:10
  It was a very bad day.
• 5:12
  >> Hunter Hoover: So you threw up so hard that you peed your pants?
• 5:15
  >> Shaloah Powell: Yeah, I threw up really hard. Like,
• 5:18
  I was throwing out joints while I was
• 5:21
  throwing up. Cause it's like a full, it's a
• 5:24
  full body experience. Like, you're shaking.
• 5:26
  Throwing.
• 5:27
  >> Hunter Hoover: Oh, my gosh. Yeah. Um. Uh, yeah,
• 5:30
  I remember. Yeah. Has it
• 5:33
  gotten better, the throwing up?
• 5:34
  >> Shaloah Powell: Yeah. Yeah.
• 5:35
  >> Hunter Hoover: Okay.
• 5:35
  >> Shaloah Powell: Now. Now if I do it, it's just cause of acid reflux.
• 5:38
  >> Hunter Hoover: Fun.
• 5:39
  >> Shaloah Powell: We're good.
• 5:40
  >> Hunter Hoover: Fun. Yeah. When. Yeah, I remember when Anna was pregnant,
• 5:43
  especially with Silas, it was. She would think about
• 5:46
  just moving, and for, like, the first five, six
• 5:49
  months, would just throw up.
• 5:50
  >> Shaloah Powell: Yeah. I do have time. Snap. Because before, like, uh, you'd
• 5:53
  have all the sickness beforehand, so you'd know.
• 5:55
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah.
• 5:55
  >> Shaloah Powell: But now if I do it, there's no warning. It just happens.
• 5:59
  So my neighbors got a nice show the other morning, but if
• 6:01
  you, uh.
• 6:03
  >> Hunter Hoover: Got dead drop yak sacks all over our house,
• 6:06
  so.
• 6:06
  >> Shaloah Powell: Oh, perfect.
• 6:08
  >> Hunter Hoover: If the vomit urge hits, feel free to just shout
• 6:11
  that out.
• 6:11
  >> Shaloah Powell: Thank you.
• 6:12
  >> Hunter Hoover: Uh, although if you did skeet it just
• 6:15
  all over this, it would be a first.
• 6:17
  >> Shaloah Powell: I mean, it wouldn't be the first time I've thrown up on
• 6:20
  someone.
• 6:21
  >> Hunter Hoover: And the audio would be one of a kind.
• 6:24
  >> Shaloah Powell: Um, I buy you a new microphone.
• 6:27
  A new microphone cover, maybe?
• 6:30
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah. Uh, no, you're good.
• 6:33
  Um, does anything
• 6:35
  specific give you, like. So
• 6:38
  Jason said that in his most recent little
• 6:41
  outing, he shared that applebee's is, like,
• 6:44
  now a game changer for me.
• 6:45
  >> Shaloah Powell: So bad. So with my. I
• 6:48
  have hypermobile Ehlers Stanlos syndrome, so
• 6:51
  my collagen looks like spaghetti. Everything's really.
• 6:54
  But then my organs don't hold up
• 6:57
  super well, so I get constipated a lot during
• 6:59
  pregnancy. I haven't been constipated as I fixed
• 7:02
  it. Yeah. So now things like
• 7:05
  really sugary coffee drinks.
• 7:09
  Don't worry, guys. It's decaf.
• 7:11
  >> Hunter Hoover: M. Even if it wasn't, it's. Anna's
• 7:14
  doctor was like, yeah, just drink the coffee. You're gonna be fine.
• 7:17
  >> Shaloah Powell: Yeah.
• 7:18
  >> Hunter Hoover: Granted, Sarah's wild, so, I mean, you.
• 7:20
  >> Shaloah Powell: Can have, like, 200 milligrams a day, so. Huh.
• 7:25
  Applebee's. Um, it's been
• 7:28
  a learning experience.
• 7:29
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah. Uh, yeah. Uh, it just was
• 7:32
  funny. Cause I had always complained to Jason about. Cause we go
• 7:35
  after yam. And then I would text him and say, dude,
• 7:38
  why? Why did we do this. And then he said, yeah,
• 7:41
  I'm kind of there with you now.
• 7:42
  >> Shaloah Powell: The last time we went to Applebee's together,
• 7:45
  made me kind of wish we had two bathrooms. That
• 7:48
  was. Yeah, like, there was a schedule.
• 7:50
  Especially when we'd both be sick,
• 7:54
  um, when I was in first trimester.
• 7:57
  Cause then I'm constantly. So I. Yeah.
• 7:59
  >> Hunter Hoover: Uh, um, this is the vomit days.
• 8:01
  >> Shaloah Powell: Yeah, I threw up in the kitchen sink quite a bit.
• 8:04
  >> Hunter Hoover: No, you just gotta kick
• 8:06
  Jason out of the bathroom.
• 8:09
  >> Shaloah Powell: Look, if there's something I'd rather clean
• 8:11
  up, it would, like, it would be my vomit out
• 8:14
  of the sink and nothing.
• 8:16
  >> Hunter Hoover: Oh.
• 8:17
  >> Shaloah Powell: Anything else off of any other surface?
• 8:19
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah. Yeah, he's.
• 8:22
  He's got it going on, I guess. M. He told me
• 8:25
  too much. Uh,
• 8:29
  he told me to ask. He said, ask her about my
• 8:32
  bathroom problems.
• 8:33
  >> Shaloah Powell: Oh, perfect.
• 8:33
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah. Uh, I don't know if I need to do that, though.
• 8:35
  >> Shaloah Powell: Yeah. Uh, it's.
• 8:38
  It can happen with roundup. When you're farming for
• 8:41
  so many years, you can get leaky
• 8:43
  gut.
• 8:44
  >> Hunter Hoover: You think that's what's going on?
• 8:46
  >> Shaloah Powell: Oh, totally.
• 8:47
  >> Hunter Hoover: Really?
• 8:47
  >> Shaloah Powell: Like, yeah, uh, he doesn't have a diagnosis because they're like, oh, we
• 8:50
  want to do all this tests and stuff. Like, I'm like, no, I'll just feed you as
• 8:53
  if you have leaky gut. And then he does a lot better.
• 8:56
  And then if we go out and eat, sometimes it just doesn't
• 8:59
  go well.
• 9:00
  >> Hunter Hoover: What is. I don't. Does it leak on the inside?
• 9:03
  >> Shaloah Powell: I'm trying to remember.
• 9:05
  >> Hunter Hoover: It sounds bad.
• 9:06
  >> Shaloah Powell: Um, like, it can get set off by
• 9:09
  certain types of dairy and, like, especially fried
• 9:11
  food.
• 9:13
  >> Hunter Hoover: Um, it almost sounds like kind of
• 9:15
  gallbladderish. I don't know.
• 9:19
  Anna had gallbladder problems years back, and
• 9:21
  that was, like, fried food was game over.
• 9:23
  >> Shaloah Powell: It. Oh, yeah.
• 9:24
  >> Hunter Hoover: It just, like, was awful.
• 9:26
  >> Shaloah Powell: Um, but I have to eat
• 9:29
  pretty autoimmune friendly right now
• 9:32
  anyway, so.
• 9:32
  >> Hunter Hoover: What is that? So you have to
• 9:35
  explain, uh, these alternative
• 9:37
  diets, because I pretty much eat like a middle school
• 9:40
  boy still.
• 9:41
  >> Shaloah Powell: So I'm not eating gluten or a lot
• 9:44
  of grain right now, and I'm not eating
• 9:47
  any processed sugars.
• 9:49
  >> Hunter Hoover: Okay.
• 9:50
  >> Shaloah Powell: And then as I get closer to
• 9:52
  pregnancy, I have to stay
• 9:55
  away from any foods that can be inflammatory
• 9:58
  towards my disorders.
• 10:01
  Um, so I'll have to cut out certain vegetables,
• 10:03
  and I might have to cut out, um, more types of
• 10:06
  dairy and grain as a whole, depending
• 10:09
  on how bad my inflammation gets weird, or else
• 10:12
  my symptoms are way worse and my whole body's just the
• 10:15
  vegetables. Yeah.
• 10:17
  >> Hunter Hoover: I feel like, they. Huh? Huh? Yeah. You hear that?
• 10:20
  Don't. Some vegetables are bad for you.
• 10:22
  >> Shaloah Powell: That's not true. Don't listen to him.
• 10:24
  >> Hunter Hoover: That's what I've learned.
• 10:25
  >> Shaloah Powell: Don't eat my diet. It's made specifically
• 10:28
  for people with crappy genetics like mine.
• 10:30
  >> Hunter Hoover: Huh. Yeah. So
• 10:34
  do your parents have ehlers
• 10:37
  stanlows?
• 10:38
  >> Shaloah Powell: Um, so we. So my cousin
• 10:41
  on my dad's side has it,
• 10:44
  and my biological sister has
• 10:47
  it. Um, my mom has had a lot of symptoms
• 10:50
  over the years, but never got a diagnosis,
• 10:52
  so we don't really quite know.
• 10:55
  >> Hunter Hoover: Interesting.
• 10:56
  >> Shaloah Powell: Um, but, like,
• 10:59
  we have a lot of autoimmune disorder stuff.
• 11:02
  Like, my dad can't have the top nine allergens,
• 11:05
  and then, like, certain vegetables, you can't
• 11:08
  have, um, dark meat.
• 11:10
  >> Hunter Hoover: Huh. That's wild.
• 11:13
  >> Shaloah Powell: Huh.
• 11:13
  >> Hunter Hoover: Uh, wow.
• 11:15
  >> Shaloah Powell: So do you.
• 11:15
  >> Hunter Hoover: So the. Like,
• 11:19
  that Ehlers Danlos and all of these
• 11:22
  autoimmune, they're pretty tied to, like,
• 11:25
  gut health bathroom life a little
• 11:28
  bit. Cause I always thought, like, I'm gonna.
• 11:30
  >> Shaloah Powell: Have to get my first colonoscopy at 30
• 11:33
  wild node. Yeah, that's what. Well,
• 11:36
  that's what my dad's doctor told him.
• 11:38
  >> Hunter Hoover: Oh, gosh.
• 11:39
  >> Shaloah Powell: And I figured I should probably listen. Like,
• 11:42
  no one on my dad's side of the family has their gallbladder,
• 11:45
  so.
• 11:45
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah, I,
• 11:47
  uh. Yeah, I know
• 11:50
  that day is in the future for me. I prefer
• 11:52
  to. I like to think that it's at least however many
• 11:55
  years. Ten plus.
• 12:00
  Yeah.
• 12:00
  >> Shaloah Powell: Yeah.
• 12:01
  >> Hunter Hoover: You're like, okay, you'll have to, um. Maybe one
• 12:04
  day in the future when you're post
• 12:06
  colonoscopy.
• 12:08
  >> Shaloah Powell: I think. I think giving birth before
• 12:11
  having a colonoscopy is gonna. I think it won't be
• 12:14
  as bad as long as they
• 12:17
  have a good team. My crappy provider changes everything.
• 12:20
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah. Are you. I don't know how to ask this question, so
• 12:23
  I'm just gonna ask it, and if it's like, no, that's not it. Are you
• 12:26
  excited for, like, the whole, like, having a baby
• 12:29
  thing?
• 12:29
  >> Shaloah Powell: Um, well, I am really scared, um, in the
• 12:32
  way that, like, my ribs have been dislocating a
• 12:35
  lot.
• 12:36
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah.
• 12:36
  >> Shaloah Powell: Um, and my knees. Ah. And, like,
• 12:39
  hips dislocate more. So I'm worried that, like,
• 12:42
  while I'm giving birth, it's gonna be. And the
• 12:45
  rib kicks, I'm scared about those.
• 12:49
  I, um, am very excited.
• 12:52
  Um, but,
• 12:55
  yes, also, um, I did just come from a birthing class, so I
• 12:58
  feel a little extra terrified.
• 13:00
  >> Hunter Hoover: No.
• 13:04
  >> Shaloah Powell: Because I'm informed of just how much I
• 13:07
  have to do.
• 13:07
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah. I mean, so, obviously,
• 13:10
  I'm sitting on the cheerleader
• 13:13
  side of it, but it does seem. I
• 13:16
  mean, it seems pretty taxing.
• 13:19
  >> Shaloah Powell: I mean, yeah. Uh,
• 13:22
  I'm excited. Um,
• 13:25
  yeah, as long as I get a baby out
• 13:28
  of it, we'll be good.
• 13:29
  >> Hunter Hoover: Oh, yeah. So, yeah, that'd be
• 13:32
  awesome. That's kind of so. Okay,
• 13:35
  you can. I think you'll be as, like. Okay, shut up. As
• 13:37
  much as Anna is, um, but I have told her. So, like,
• 13:40
  kidney stones and men who pass kidney
• 13:43
  stones.
• 13:44
  >> Shaloah Powell: Yes, I have seen that secondhand
• 13:47
  very much.
• 13:47
  >> Hunter Hoover: Uh, I'm convinced that that is worse
• 13:50
  than having a baby. And the reason I.
• 13:55
  And the reason I say that is I think the
• 13:58
  process of baby pushing is worse, but the
• 14:01
  emotional, like,
• 14:04
  benefit of it helps that along
• 14:07
  where for, like, if you're a guy and you pass a kidney stone,
• 14:10
  it's awful and there's no emotional m reward.
• 14:12
  >> Shaloah Powell: It's like you don't have a crap ton of
• 14:15
  hormone stuff going on.
• 14:16
  >> Hunter Hoover: That's true.
• 14:17
  >> Shaloah Powell: Like, I know the pain
• 14:20
  is. It's absolutely horrible.
• 14:23
  Um, probably
• 14:26
  worse than a knee. I've had my.
• 14:29
  So the worst knee disk location I had, it went out
• 14:32
  about 180. So it didn't do with, like, a
• 14:35
  360. Like, I knew a guy who did.
• 14:36
  >> Hunter Hoover: Oh, like, it spun around.
• 14:37
  >> Shaloah Powell: Well, no, he did spin around, but it went, like, okay, mine didn't do
• 14:40
  180. It went, like, out on the side, and then his
• 14:43
  did 180, so it was back. Cause he got hit by a
• 14:46
  car.
• 14:46
  >> Hunter Hoover: Oh, my gosh.
• 14:48
  >> Shaloah Powell: So I don't m know how bad that is, but from what I felt, having my
• 14:50
  kneecap on the side of my leg,
• 14:53
  like, you could see it. Yeah. Like, my. Like,
• 14:56
  it was flat on top, and my kneecap was just, like,
• 14:59
  gross. Um,
• 15:02
  and I feel like a kidney stone's probably a little
• 15:05
  worse. Maybe around the same.
• 15:08
  I don't know.
• 15:09
  >> Hunter Hoover: I feel like it has to be.
• 15:11
  >> Shaloah Powell: Because it goes on so long.
• 15:13
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah, that's my greatest fear.
• 15:15
  >> Shaloah Powell: Like, I can pop my knee back in, and then you
• 15:18
  just have to wait for the adrenaline to go down, and it just mistakes,
• 15:21
  and that's it.
• 15:23
  >> Hunter Hoover: Is it kind of, like. So
• 15:27
  does any part of the, like, popping it back in place feel good
• 15:30
  now? Like, do you know, like, when you, like, crack your knuckles, it
• 15:33
  feels good. Is it like that at all?
• 15:35
  >> Shaloah Powell: Um, like, sometimes when my hip pops back
• 15:38
  in, um, a lot of things, it kind of
• 15:41
  stopped hurting. It just was. And
• 15:44
  my body would react negatively to that. Like, my shoulders
• 15:47
  are almost never, like, quite where they belong.
• 15:50
  Um, but with pregnancy, the pain,
• 15:53
  like, has come back a lot so you can
• 15:56
  actually feel it, and you're like, oh, man.
• 15:59
  >> Hunter Hoover: Fun.
• 15:59
  >> Shaloah Powell: All that pain, tolerance for nothing.
• 16:02
  >> Hunter Hoover: Well, until after the baby's, I was gonna say. It's like,
• 16:05
  sometimes you hear about people, like, oh, I have pregnant. And now,
• 16:08
  like, this problem that I've had for ten years, it's just gone because the
• 16:11
  hormones, like, level it out.
• 16:14
  That makes sense. No, no. Okay.
• 16:17
  >> Shaloah Powell: It's gotten worse.
• 16:18
  >> Hunter Hoover: Well, um, can't win them all.
• 16:21
  >> Shaloah Powell: I don't get mosquito bites like I did before, though,
• 16:24
  because mosquitoes don't like Jason, and now I have
• 16:27
  his DNA in my blood, so is that like.
• 16:30
  That's like me?
• 16:31
  >> Hunter Hoover: That's weird.
• 16:32
  >> Shaloah Powell: It is weird, but I'm appreciative of it.
• 16:34
  >> Hunter Hoover: Uh huh.
• 16:36
  >> Shaloah Powell: Like, I've been able to eat dairy.
• 16:39
  >> Hunter Hoover: Jason could, like, I
• 16:41
  don't know, cell is spit and concentrate. That.
• 16:44
  >> Shaloah Powell: No, that's not how that works.
• 16:47
  >> Hunter Hoover: Okay. Wrong. Uh, anyway. All right.
• 16:49
  >> Shaloah Powell: His DNA is literally in my blood.
• 16:55
  >> Hunter Hoover: That, friends, is called
• 16:58
  science. Uh, you're welcome.
• 17:01
  Good job, Jason.
• 17:02
  Ah. Um, well, I
• 17:05
  have. If you have any bathroom stories, you can
• 17:08
  stop me at any time. I have a bunch of
• 17:12
  questions, uh, that I ask everyone, and
• 17:15
  I've already kind of asked a little bit about the Ehlers
• 17:18
  Danlos. I've known you for, like, seven years. I still don't have, like, a good
• 17:21
  grasp on what it is.
• 17:22
  >> Shaloah Powell: That's fair.
• 17:23
  >> Hunter Hoover: It's just, I know that the best.
• 17:25
  >> Shaloah Powell: Way I describe it is most people's bodies
• 17:28
  and bones and organs are held
• 17:31
  together by, like, a strong gorilla glue,
• 17:33
  and mine are held together by, like,
• 17:36
  not just, like, Elmer's craft glue, but, like, the glittery
• 17:39
  elmer's craft glue that does absolutely
• 17:42
  nothing.
• 17:43
  >> Hunter Hoover: Okay, so it's like, there's a lot of floating.
• 17:45
  >> Shaloah Powell: Yeah.
• 17:47
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah, that would suck if it's not supposed to.
• 17:49
  >> Shaloah Powell: Like, sometimes I'm just sitting there and I can kind of
• 17:52
  feel my. Well, not right now, because all my organs are
• 17:55
  squished, but not pregnant. Like, I could just feel my
• 17:58
  stomach just be like.
• 17:59
  >> Hunter Hoover: So can you. I should have probably asked on this. I never really asked this.
• 18:02
  Can you feel your organs being, like,
• 18:05
  pushed. Yeah, by the baby. That's
• 18:08
  weird.
• 18:09
  >> Shaloah Powell: From what I've heard from my midwife and, like, my mom,
• 18:12
  who's a nurse and has dealt with autoimmune stuff all these
• 18:15
  years, is, like, not everyone feels
• 18:18
  everything as deeply physically and
• 18:21
  knows where all their bones and organs are.
• 18:23
  But when you have a disorder your whole life, where it's
• 18:26
  all constantly moving and you're more
• 18:29
  aware.
• 18:30
  >> Hunter Hoover: Huh.
• 18:30
  >> Shaloah Powell: Of so I don't know if everything I feel is akin
• 18:33
  to, like, that's weird. The average
• 18:35
  pregnancy, but yeah, I can feel it. Huh.
• 18:38
  >> Hunter Hoover: Huh.
• 18:38
  >> Shaloah Powell: That's squishy.
• 18:40
  >> Hunter Hoover: That would freak me out. A.
• 18:41
  >> Shaloah Powell: But, like, it feels squishy in my ribcage,
• 18:44
  which is weird to say. So
• 18:47
  I try not to think about it.
• 18:48
  >> Hunter Hoover: And here we are making you think. No.
• 18:51
  Um, well, let's. We'll jump into questions. It'll
• 18:54
  be a good break from that. Uh, so what type
• 18:57
  of toilet paper do y'all have at your place? What
• 19:00
  type of toilet paper do you guys use?
• 19:01
  >> Shaloah Powell: So I either get
• 19:03
  Charmin or I get quilted
• 19:06
  northrin.
• 19:07
  >> Hunter Hoover: Oh, really?
• 19:08
  >> Shaloah Powell: Ah, yeah. Because quilted northern
• 19:10
  doesn't like charmin leaves too. It
• 19:13
  leaves too much.
• 19:14
  >> Hunter Hoover: The bears are breaking down fast.
• 19:17
  >> Shaloah Powell: Yeah.
• 19:17
  >> Hunter Hoover: Okay.
• 19:18
  >> Shaloah Powell: Quilted northern is just. It's strong
• 19:20
  enough, but it doesn't hurt you.
• 19:22
  >> Hunter Hoover: Huh huh. Quilted my. I think that's what my parents used to
• 19:25
  buy when I was a kid. I haven't seen it in forever. We just
• 19:28
  buy Costco.
• 19:31
  Uh, I haven't seen quilted northern forever. That's good
• 19:34
  stuff. And, um, then do you. When you put it on the roll.
• 19:36
  >> Shaloah Powell: Mhm.
• 19:37
  >> Hunter Hoover: It's a classic. Do you go over or under?
• 19:39
  >> Shaloah Powell: It's over.
• 19:40
  >> Hunter Hoover: Okay. So does Jason agree with you? I can't remember what he
• 19:42
  said.
• 19:43
  >> Shaloah Powell: Yeah, I mean, he puts it on. When he does put it
• 19:46
  on, it is over.
• 19:47
  >> Hunter Hoover: Okay.
• 19:48
  >> Shaloah Powell: So I'd say so. I don't think he really cares.
• 19:51
  >> Hunter Hoover: Okay. See that? I'm convinced it
• 19:54
  doesn't matter. That's my, um. That's fair.
• 19:56
  >> Shaloah Powell: Like, if I'm at work, as long as my coworker put it on, I
• 19:59
  don't care.
• 20:00
  >> Hunter Hoover: Right.
• 20:00
  >> Shaloah Powell: The fact that they did it, just.
• 20:02
  >> Hunter Hoover: So what do you say of this crime? So I walked into a bathroom,
• 20:05
  saw this crime in my own home, and I
• 20:08
  don't think it was Anna,
• 20:11
  but I'm also like, I'm trying to figure out who
• 20:14
  possibly. So the toilet paper was gone and they took the
• 20:17
  roll, they took the cardboard tube off and threw it
• 20:19
  away and then replaced the thing with nothing on
• 20:22
  it. Just like complete empty
• 20:25
  pants on the roll.
• 20:28
  >> Shaloah Powell: That's evil. That's heinous.
• 20:29
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah. I think my son might be behind this maneuver.
• 20:32
  >> Shaloah Powell: Intent to do harm.
• 20:34
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah. My guess is he just
• 20:37
  was like, yeah, I'm not even look for it. I just know this is empty. I need to take it off.
• 20:40
  But I walked in there, I was like, this is
• 20:43
  madness. You were right there.
• 20:46
  You had it ready to go. Um. Okay. So
• 20:49
  overdose. Uh,
• 20:52
  do you?
• 20:54
  Yeah. If you see, if you go to
• 20:57
  someone's house.
• 20:58
  >> Shaloah Powell: Mhm.
• 20:59
  >> Hunter Hoover: And you use the restroom and it's under, will you flip it?
• 21:02
  >> Shaloah Powell: No.
• 21:02
  >> Hunter Hoover: Okay, just leave it.
• 21:03
  >> Shaloah Powell: That's their house, that's their rules.
• 21:06
  >> Hunter Hoover: Some people will flip it. They're gutsy enough
• 21:09
  to flip that around.
• 21:11
  >> Shaloah Powell: It's not your house. It's not your right to flip their toilet paper.
• 21:14
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah, I agree. I think we should just leave everybody's toilet paper.
• 21:16
  >> Shaloah Powell: You don't go and go, oh, I have my kitchen cabinethe differently.
• 21:19
  Imma change that for you.
• 21:22
  >> Hunter Hoover: It's just wrong. Yeah.
• 21:24
  Um, do you prefer bar soap or liquid
• 21:27
  soap?
• 21:31
  >> Shaloah Powell: I mean, I usually use liquid soap, but
• 21:34
  if I do buy a bar soap, like I
• 21:37
  have a loofah poof shake.
• 21:40
  So you just slather in there.
• 21:42
  >> Hunter Hoover: Jason told me he's been messing around with the doctor squatch.
• 21:45
  >> Shaloah Powell: Mhm.
• 21:46
  >> Hunter Hoover: I'm trying to mess around with doctor squatch. I
• 21:49
  literally ordered some when I recorded with him and
• 21:52
  it's still not here. They haven't figured it out. They're working
• 21:55
  on it.
• 21:55
  >> Shaloah Powell: It does take a while to get there, but like now that they,
• 21:58
  like, I think he gets like one package a month
• 22:01
  or something. But we have so many. Like I have a
• 22:04
  drawer in our bathroom that's like what I always make sure I have
• 22:07
  one backup of whatever we have.
• 22:09
  >> Hunter Hoover: Okay.
• 22:09
  >> Shaloah Powell: And like a good chunk of the drawer is just
• 22:12
  squatch soaps.
• 22:14
  >> Hunter Hoover: Well, there you go. Have you ever, have you ever like
• 22:17
  thought about trying one of those?
• 22:19
  >> Shaloah Powell: I did.
• 22:20
  >> Hunter Hoover: Okay.
• 22:21
  >> Shaloah Powell: Um, it's,
• 22:24
  I mean, it works fine. Um, it
• 22:27
  just dried up my skin. Oh. So I didn't like it.
• 22:30
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah. Fun.
• 22:32
  Yeah. I don't imagine Jason's worried
• 22:35
  about dry skin very often. Having worked on, you
• 22:38
  know, farms and.
• 22:40
  >> Shaloah Powell: Um, the, such, the only thing is
• 22:42
  like working with paper, like if
• 22:45
  your skin is dry, and then I get more
• 22:48
  paper cuts and stuff anyway because, you know.
• 22:50
  >> Hunter Hoover: Right.
• 22:51
  >> Shaloah Powell: I don't have good collagen in my skin.
• 22:53
  >> Hunter Hoover: Huh. So does that make it like
• 22:55
  resistant? I don't know what collagen does.
• 22:58
  >> Shaloah Powell: Uh, no, my skin just gets
• 23:01
  cut easier and I get bruises easier and
• 23:04
  stuff. So then if my skin is dry, like
• 23:07
  it'll split open and it'll um, get cuts
• 23:10
  easier and stuff.
• 23:11
  >> Hunter Hoover: That's wild. Um,
• 23:16
  what is your opinion of baths? Pro
• 23:18
  bath?
• 23:19
  >> Shaloah Powell: I am pro bath, um, merely
• 23:22
  because of my disability.
• 23:24
  >> Hunter Hoover: Okay.
• 23:24
  >> Shaloah Powell: Sometimes that's like I have, um, a
• 23:27
  shower stool I have to use sometimes. And sometimes
• 23:30
  there have been times where bath is the only option
• 23:33
  or it just really helps relieve pain.
• 23:35
  >> Hunter Hoover: There's a lady I work with. She, like,
• 23:38
  for no reason other than she's just like, yeah, I don't.
• 23:41
  I'm just. She just has a shower stool.
• 23:43
  >> Shaloah Powell: Yeah.
• 23:44
  >> Hunter Hoover: She says everybody should just own one and have one and
• 23:47
  do that.
• 23:48
  Um, yeah, it's a
• 23:51
  bad place to faint. Yeah.
• 23:55
  Have you fainted in the middle of that situation?
• 23:58
  >> Shaloah Powell: I've gotten really close, but I haven't.
• 24:01
  >> Hunter Hoover: Cause I know, like, Anna will take a bathe and it'll be
• 24:03
  hot to the point where she's like, I gotta get out. I'm
• 24:06
  lightheaded. And I'm like, this is.
• 24:08
  >> Shaloah Powell: Yeah, no, I will. I will sit down before.
• 24:11
  Before that happens.
• 24:12
  >> Hunter Hoover: It's too much.
• 24:13
  >> Shaloah Powell: Um.
• 24:13
  >> Hunter Hoover: Um. Do you have any bathroom pet peeves?
• 24:16
  It can be things that, you know, Jason or not
• 24:19
  Jason, but probably Jason. Do that drive you
• 24:22
  nuts?
• 24:23
  >> Shaloah Powell: That's fair. Um. Um, nothing.
• 24:26
  I do hate when, like, I.
• 24:29
  If the bath mat's really wet, I like to hang it up.
• 24:32
  >> Hunter Hoover: Okay.
• 24:33
  >> Shaloah Powell: And I hate stepping into, like, by the tub
• 24:36
  because our washer and dryer is there. And sometimes you go, you're wearing
• 24:38
  socks. You're gonna do the laundry, and
• 24:41
  then your. Your wet are just
• 24:43
  squelching. Yeah, that's on a
• 24:46
  wet mat, and I don't like it.
• 24:49
  >> Hunter Hoover: So just pick the mat up.
• 24:50
  >> Shaloah Powell: Yeah, just. Just hang it up.
• 24:53
  >> Hunter Hoover: So what's interesting now, this is.
• 24:56
  This is similar. Okay. So I had Michael and Kimberly on at the same time,
• 24:59
  which was fun because Kimberly would say something, and
• 25:02
  I had had Michael on previously, and I'd stare at Michael. I'm like, you little.
• 25:05
  You little rascal. Because I know that you said, you do
• 25:08
  this, and she just said she hates it. I'm, um, pretty sure Jason said
• 25:11
  he also hates the experience of stepping on a wet
• 25:14
  floor from showering. So, like,
• 25:18
  is he the one leaving the mat down and then also, like,
• 25:21
  mad that he's stepping in it?
• 25:25
  >> Shaloah Powell: Well, I mean, he usually takes
• 25:27
  showers at night, and I take him in the morning.
• 25:30
  >> Hunter Hoover: Oh, okay.
• 25:31
  >> Shaloah Powell: Um. I don't think he really notices.
• 25:36
  >> Hunter Hoover: Huh. Yeah.
• 25:38
  >> Shaloah Powell: Not my bathroom, but at the clinic. I
• 25:40
  hate when parents know their kids need
• 25:43
  bathroom help, but they're not gonna do it. And they're
• 25:46
  like, yeah, my three year old son can go pee by himself.
• 25:49
  And then they leave, and I walk in
• 25:52
  and I'm like, oh, okay, well, I guess I'm cleaning that
• 25:55
  up.
• 25:56
  >> Hunter Hoover: So that's like, y'all. Y'all the front desk people's
• 25:58
  like, you're the cleanup crew for the bathroom.
• 26:01
  >> Shaloah Powell: Yeah. Like, we have a cleanup crew that
• 26:04
  comes and does general stuff, like at night, but they
• 26:07
  suck really bad. So I do,
• 26:10
  uh, a set front desk, like, does most of
• 26:13
  that. And then, of course, back office is in
• 26:16
  charge of cleaning. Like the operatories and sterile
• 26:19
  and stuff.
• 26:19
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah, that's.
• 26:20
  >> Shaloah Powell: And so that's all we is extremely clean because it has.
• 26:23
  >> Hunter Hoover: That's a different game.
• 26:24
  >> Shaloah Powell: Yeah.
• 26:25
  >> Hunter Hoover: Um,
• 26:29
  so Jason's bar soap. Have you ever thought about
• 26:31
  carving him a message in it?
• 26:33
  >> Shaloah Powell: No. It's worth, you
• 26:36
  know, that is a waste of money.
• 26:38
  >> Hunter Hoover: Well, you just, you know, you carve a little one. Like, I'm
• 26:41
  like, I don't have fingernails.
• 26:44
  >> Shaloah Powell: I bite them off. I have nothing to carve with.
• 26:47
  >> Hunter Hoover: Fair enough.
• 26:48
  >> Shaloah Powell: Um.
• 26:48
  >> Hunter Hoover: Um. Have you ever tried taking shower in the dark?
• 26:51
  >> Shaloah Powell: Yes. Only because for a
• 26:53
  while at my parents house, the light was
• 26:56
  broken, so.
• 26:57
  >> Hunter Hoover: Okay.
• 26:58
  >> Shaloah Powell: You get up at five for work.
• 26:59
  >> Hunter Hoover: So accidental what it is. Yeah,
• 27:02
  I love it. That's like my. I. Yeah,
• 27:05
  no, I don't. I most exclusively
• 27:08
  move wrong and the.
• 27:10
  >> Shaloah Powell: Lights off and my knee goes out. Like, that's.
• 27:13
  Mm mm.
• 27:13
  >> Hunter Hoover: Oh, yeah. That's a different game.
• 27:15
  >> Shaloah Powell: Yeah.
• 27:16
  >> Hunter Hoover: I imagine navigating anything when your leg
• 27:19
  is not where it's supposed to be as bad.
• 27:22
  >> Shaloah Powell: Yeah. Like, if I, like, I can step on something that's on the floor
• 27:25
  and you're like, well, my knees gone. Bye.
• 27:27
  >> Hunter Hoover: Nope. That sounds awful. Uh,
• 27:31
  do you. Do you find, like. Ah, yeah.
• 27:34
  Anyway, um, snacks in the
• 27:37
  bathroom? Yes. No.
• 27:40
  Okay.
• 27:40
  >> Shaloah Powell: When I get up, like, I'll get up in the morning. I make my
• 27:43
  coffee. You take a shower. You put your
• 27:46
  coffee on the side of the tub between the inside
• 27:49
  and the outside. Coffee.
• 27:50
  >> Hunter Hoover: Okay.
• 27:51
  >> Shaloah Powell: And you sip it between your different soaps.
• 27:53
  >> Hunter Hoover: Coffee, shower. Shower. Coffee.
• 27:56
  >> Shaloah Powell: Yes.
• 27:57
  >> Hunter Hoover: Those are different things.
• 27:59
  >> Shaloah Powell: But that's it. Like,
• 28:02
  maybe a sparkling water after work.
• 28:04
  >> Hunter Hoover: I'm trying to figure out how to get my shower head to put coffee
• 28:07
  out. No, sorry.
• 28:10
  Uh, I said coffee shower.
• 28:13
  Is it, like, weird drinking a hot drink in a hot
• 28:16
  shower?
• 28:16
  >> Shaloah Powell: Because that, to me, like, I mean, I
• 28:19
  typically. I don't usually take
• 28:22
  super hot showers. I either take lukewarm or slightly
• 28:24
  cold, really. Um, unless,
• 28:27
  like, my. I'm getting dystonia, which
• 28:30
  is, um,
• 28:33
  basically cramps that are so tight that,
• 28:35
  like, your different things start moving on
• 28:38
  their own. So, like, when my neck starts
• 28:41
  moving around or my arm.
• 28:44
  Yeah, that's dystonia. So I'll take hot
• 28:47
  showers to, like, help with that.
• 28:50
  But other than that, like, I feel a lot better taking
• 28:53
  a cold shower, so.
• 28:55
  >> Hunter Hoover: Really?
• 28:56
  >> Shaloah Powell: Yeah.
• 28:57
  >> Hunter Hoover: That sounds like the worst thing ever taking. I hate cold
• 29:00
  showers.
• 29:00
  >> Shaloah Powell: Yeah, I used to think the same thing. But when your chronic illness gets bad
• 29:03
  enough and that thing helps it, so.
• 29:05
  >> Hunter Hoover: Cold helps it, so.
• 29:07
  >> Shaloah Powell: Yeah. Like, cold showers, like, for the. For
• 29:10
  certain things. Yeah.
• 29:11
  >> Hunter Hoover: That's wild, huh? Cause,
• 29:13
  like, I don't know, I always thought heat
• 29:16
  was. Heat was the thing.
• 29:18
  >> Shaloah Powell: Heat is the thing for my
• 29:20
  muscles. But, like, for the,
• 29:24
  uh, for the dysautonomia and stuff. Cold is.
• 29:27
  >> Hunter Hoover: That's wild.
• 29:28
  >> Shaloah Powell: They kind of work against each other, man.
• 29:31
  >> Hunter Hoover: That is. I guess it would have to be pretty bad because
• 29:33
  I, like. Our water heater will go out
• 29:36
  here. It's our garage gets 105
• 29:39
  degrees because there's no ventilation, and
• 29:42
  the sun hits it all day. And our water
• 29:45
  heater will, like, trip and go out, and I will be in the show. I'll get
• 29:48
  so mad because it's like, ice cold water.
• 29:51
  The water is colder than it is in our house. And, like, this is so
• 29:54
  dumb. I hate this so much. I get so angry.
• 29:57
  Um, but you're like, yeah, that's
• 30:00
  great. Uh, have
• 30:03
  you ever thought of. Okay, so there's this thing where
• 30:06
  you eat an orange in the shower as if it's an apple.
• 30:09
  So what are, like, you've already said you're not, like, I. What
• 30:12
  are the odds you would ever try that maneuver?
• 30:15
  >> Shaloah Powell: So right after Jason recorded his
• 30:18
  last podcast, he requested when I went to the
• 30:21
  store that I buy him an orange.
• 30:22
  >> Hunter Hoover: Oh, yes.
• 30:23
  >> Shaloah Powell: So I. And I. He hasn't told me. He hasn't told me how
• 30:26
  it is.
• 30:27
  >> Hunter Hoover: Okay.
• 30:27
  >> Shaloah Powell: So I'm waiting for it.
• 30:29
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah.
• 30:29
  >> Shaloah Powell: I'm not. I'm not trying it until I get his report.
• 30:31
  >> Hunter Hoover: I think. And I. This is probably. Someone
• 30:35
  will be like, that's sexist, and here I
• 30:37
  am. But I think there's something, like, in
• 30:40
  the guy's brain of, like, I can make the biggest
• 30:43
  mess everywhere with this piece of fruit and there's no
• 30:46
  consequences. That is.
• 30:47
  >> Shaloah Powell: No, I agree, because I. Yeah, I'm
• 30:50
  not. I don't usually really like plain oranges anyway.
• 30:53
  >> Hunter Hoover: Okay. Yeah.
• 30:53
  >> Shaloah Powell: I've seen people eat, like, steaks. Like, men eat
• 30:56
  steaks in the shower, and they post it on their facebook,
• 30:59
  and they're like, I'm in America, so I could steak.
• 31:02
  >> Hunter Hoover: Who are these people?
• 31:04
  >> Shaloah Powell: My dad's friend Chris, some
• 31:07
  other middle aged men.
• 31:08
  >> Hunter Hoover: Wait, wait, they're eating steak?
• 31:10
  >> Shaloah Powell: Yeah. Like, he had one like that. Uh, I think it was,
• 31:13
  like, a flank steak, and it was still on the bone.
• 31:15
  >> Hunter Hoover: And you're eating it while they're showering?
• 31:17
  >> Shaloah Powell: Yeah.
• 31:19
  >> Hunter Hoover: Are they, like, holding it. Or they got, like, a
• 31:21
  fork. They're just holding it like they're eating it.
• 31:24
  Like, primal m maneuver eating it.
• 31:27
  >> Shaloah Powell: Yeah, like, on, um. Like, if it's attached to a bone,
• 31:30
  they'll have the bone. Uh, I've seen
• 31:33
  this from multiple middle aged men on Facebook.
• 31:35
  Hmm.
• 31:36
  >> Hunter Hoover: I'm okay. There is gonna be more
• 31:39
  research that is happening now.
• 31:40
  >> Shaloah Powell: I think it's a particular sect of middle aged
• 31:43
  Mendez.
• 31:44
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah, yeah. Chris Luckman said he ate
• 31:47
  ribs on the toilet. Like, that was a maneuver he's tried a few
• 31:50
  times. And I went, listen,
• 31:53
  there's so much finger
• 31:55
  sauce that.
• 31:56
  >> Shaloah Powell: How do you know what's on your fingers?
• 31:59
  >> Hunter Hoover: Well, so he. His thing is, like, he finishes
• 32:01
  the food before he begins wiping, but I'm like, that toilet
• 32:04
  paper is gonna be a nightmare with the
• 32:07
  barbecue on your flake.
• 32:08
  >> Shaloah Powell: Yeah, no, it's. That's a sin.
• 32:12
  >> Hunter Hoover: I would try it. I would do. I would do messy ribs in the shower, though.
• 32:14
  That's. The steak has spurred my brain
• 32:17
  into. Hmm.
• 32:20
  Shower steak. I'm gonna just
• 32:22
  make myself a note real quick. Shower
• 32:25
  steak.
• 32:28
  Because, uh,
• 32:32
  they might be on to something.
• 32:35
  Seems suspicious. Uh,
• 32:39
  what do they do with the bone when they're like.
• 32:41
  >> Shaloah Powell: I don't know. Don't ask
• 32:44
  them intimate details about their steak.
• 32:47
  >> Hunter Hoover: Cause I imagine that there have been some angry
• 32:49
  husband and wife conversations. If they leave
• 32:52
  that, like, not on piece
• 32:55
  of m bone in the shower on
• 32:58
  accident. Cause every now and then, I will, like, have a shower
• 33:01
  drink, and I'll leave the can, and it's
• 33:04
  like, all right. Yeah, it's annoying. I could not imagine getting in the shower and
• 33:07
  there's just, like, a t bone. Steak. Bone just sitting
• 33:10
  on the thing. It's like, oh, my gosh. Has your dad
• 33:13
  ever tried it?
• 33:14
  >> Shaloah Powell: Not that I'm aware of.
• 33:15
  >> Hunter Hoover: Well, he can't do the. Is that dark meat steak?
• 33:17
  >> Shaloah Powell: I mean, he can have, like.
• 33:20
  He can't have, like, dark meat, like, from chicken or turkey and
• 33:23
  stuff. Cause it's throat up.
• 33:26
  But, um, fine. Like, beef is fine.
• 33:29
  >> Hunter Hoover: Okay. You have to ask your dad, have you ever.
• 33:32
  >> Shaloah Powell: My dad, he's a much more private person
• 33:35
  than I am. We don't talk about those things.
• 33:38
  >> Hunter Hoover: Maybe Jason can ask him. That's the path
• 33:41
  forward. Seek. Jason.
• 33:43
  Hey, Jason.
• 33:47
  Ask Mister Shaloah's dad if
• 33:50
  he's ever shower staked.
• 33:51
  >> Shaloah Powell: Like, just me having the
• 33:54
  knowledge that he had colon cancer when he had it
• 33:57
  was. Was a pretty big growth. She's pretty
• 34:00
  private as far as privacy.
• 34:02
  >> Hunter Hoover: In our relationship, man.
• 34:04
  Yeah, that's fair.
• 34:06
  >> Shaloah Powell: I mean, we talk about a lot, just not bathroom body
• 34:09
  things.
• 34:10
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah.
• 34:11
  >> Shaloah Powell: Like, my mom's a nurse and I work in dental and I love
• 34:14
  biology. So we'll talk. Like we talk
• 34:17
  about anything. And he just leaves the room.
• 34:19
  >> Hunter Hoover: Your dad's like, I'm out.
• 34:20
  >> Shaloah Powell: Like, we'll be like, yes, I'm pregnant. And he's like, all right,
• 34:23
  you guys have your girl talk.
• 34:26
  I'ma go.
• 34:29
  >> Hunter Hoover: You should just corner him one time and just
• 34:32
  unload a story. It'd be so funny,
• 34:34
  though.
• 34:35
  >> Shaloah Powell: He doesn't deserve. He's a good dad. He doesn't
• 34:38
  deserve that.
• 34:39
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah. Yeah.
• 34:40
  >> Shaloah Powell: He raised me well.
• 34:41
  >> Hunter Hoover: That's funny, though.
• 34:42
  >> Shaloah Powell: Taught me how to break noses.
• 34:43
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah. Fun.
• 34:46
  >> Shaloah Powell: Um.
• 34:46
  >> Hunter Hoover: Um, well, speaking of things that you, uh,
• 34:49
  uh. You probably would never ask your dad.
• 34:52
  >> Shaloah Powell: All right.
• 34:53
  >> Hunter Hoover: Do you know what a waffle stomp is? Let's start with the.
• 34:56
  >> Shaloah Powell: I do. I am aware.
• 34:57
  >> Hunter Hoover: So. And you don't. Uh, I have been
• 35:00
  told so when I sat down with Kimberly and
• 35:02
  Michael, I was told, hey, you know, it's kind
• 35:05
  of. It's kind of weird to ask a lady if they've done this.
• 35:08
  So I'm not gonna ask you, but if you want to
• 35:11
  share whether or not you've done it, you can.
• 35:13
  >> Shaloah Powell: No, no.
• 35:15
  >> Hunter Hoover: Okay.
• 35:16
  >> Shaloah Powell: Absolutely nothing.
• 35:18
  >> Hunter Hoover: I don't think Jason has. I for life
• 35:21
  can't remember his answers because this was like from three years ago.
• 35:24
  >> Shaloah Powell: Um, but yeah, no, I'm
• 35:27
  the one who cleans the tub, so you better not.
• 35:29
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah, yeah.
• 35:32
  >> Shaloah Powell: Uh, and the grate we have
• 35:34
  now in the tub, like, it's. It
• 35:37
  kind of looks like a checkerboard.
• 35:40
  >> Hunter Hoover: Oh, that's the perfect. That's. No, that's like literally the
• 35:42
  waffle pattern.
• 35:43
  >> Shaloah Powell: No, no, but it's really tiny.
• 35:45
  >> Hunter Hoover: That's.
• 35:46
  >> Shaloah Powell: Yeah, it's teeny, teeny tiny. Teeny,
• 35:48
  teeny square holes.
• 35:50
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yes.
• 35:51
  >> Shaloah Powell: There's. If you try and squelch it through there,
• 35:53
  you're just gonna be left with a pie tin of
• 35:56
  crap.
• 35:57
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah.
• 35:58
  >> Shaloah Powell: No, so.
• 36:00
  Mhm. That's wrong.
• 36:03
  >> Hunter Hoover: The type that we have. I've never. This one has not
• 36:06
  had it anyway. But
• 36:08
  that type is the worst because it's just like
• 36:11
  the ring with the thing in the middle and like, stuff can
• 36:14
  sneak by before it gets
• 36:18
  liquefied. So it. Yeah. Anyway,
• 36:20
  um, so if. If you ever
• 36:23
  had. So you're like a get out bathroom.
• 36:26
  Do you ever have to get back in situation?
• 36:28
  >> Shaloah Powell: See, I've never had that problem.
• 36:30
  >> Hunter Hoover: Really?
• 36:32
  >> Shaloah Powell: Like, I mean. No.
• 36:35
  >> Hunter Hoover: Then that is. Maybe that's a guy thing because.
• 36:38
  >> Shaloah Powell: Well, I mean, being pregnant is. Is the most
• 36:41
  consistently that I have ever gone, like,
• 36:44
  typically with my, like, I'm just
• 36:46
  extremely so. Like, I'll go 20
• 36:49
  days, and that would be normal for me.
• 36:53
  M and I'd have to. That's like,
• 36:56
  I am very familiar with over the counter
• 36:59
  laxatives. Only, um, magnesium citrate
• 37:02
  would do anything. Nothing else.
• 37:04
  >> Hunter Hoover: Have you ever tried dragon fruit?
• 37:06
  >> Shaloah Powell: No.
• 37:07
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yellow dragon fruit will,
• 37:09
  like, that is liquid plumbers.
• 37:12
  >> Shaloah Powell: That is a post pregnancy try, because
• 37:15
  right now we're doing fine.
• 37:17
  >> Hunter Hoover: 20 days?
• 37:18
  >> Shaloah Powell: Yeah.
• 37:22
  >> Hunter Hoover: Does your doctor know that?
• 37:25
  >> Shaloah Powell: I mean,
• 37:27
  I'm in the middle of looking for a new.
• 37:29
  >> Hunter Hoover: Hey, you're. Hey, you're an adult. You know what
• 37:32
  you need to do. But I.
• 37:35
  That is, uh, that's. That's. I
• 37:38
  don't know if it's impressive or scary.
• 37:41
  Um, because for me, the thought of 20
• 37:44
  hours is too much. Like, I start.
• 37:47
  I start having, like, existential questions about, like, if.
• 37:50
  >> Shaloah Powell: Like, before pregnancy, if I was doing really good, it'd be
• 37:53
  like, every three days.
• 37:55
  >> Hunter Hoover: Really? That's. That is concerning for me.
• 37:58
  Like, like, everybody's different.
• 38:00
  >> Shaloah Powell: I did struggle with gastroparesis a
• 38:03
  lot.
• 38:05
  >> Hunter Hoover: I. Only because of this show. Do I know what
• 38:08
  that is?
• 38:09
  >> Shaloah Powell: Yeah. Oh, yeah. That means when your stomach's
• 38:11
  not moving at all, so you don't digest.
• 38:14
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah. I had a mentor kid that, because
• 38:16
  his home life was so awful. Like, his intestine,
• 38:19
  like, he had it from trauma, just the whole thing shut
• 38:22
  down.
• 38:22
  >> Shaloah Powell: Oh, wow.
• 38:23
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah.
• 38:23
  >> Shaloah Powell: They had to even know it could shut, like, mindless
• 38:25
  allergies.
• 38:26
  >> Hunter Hoover: They had to give him, like, these weird enzymes to get his
• 38:29
  stomach to start.
• 38:30
  >> Shaloah Powell: Oh, that's horrible.
• 38:31
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah, it was. It was wild, but
• 38:34
  so a normal person.
• 38:36
  >> Shaloah Powell: Mhm.
• 38:37
  >> Hunter Hoover: This kid who. I don't know if I can name him now, he's an adult,
• 38:40
  and this has been like, four years, but I'm not gonna. But this
• 38:43
  kid, you would think,
• 38:46
  like, if my tummy is not digesting anything, like,
• 38:49
  I would lay low on the amount of food that I'm. But, like,
• 38:52
  nah, he was like, two, three big Macs in a large frye, and
• 38:55
  then he would just throw it all up. Dude was
• 38:57
  wild. Yep, that's right. I'm like,
• 39:00
  hey, bud, that's $20 worth.
• 39:01
  >> Shaloah Powell: Of food that you just has a healthy relationship with
• 39:04
  food now.
• 39:05
  >> Hunter Hoover: Uh, yeah, I don't know. But his exact thing
• 39:08
  was, I'm not eating it for nutrition. I'm eating it because
• 39:11
  it tastes good.
• 39:14
  >> Shaloah Powell: It wasn't for emotional reasons.
• 39:16
  >> Hunter Hoover: I think that was probably some of it too. But, yeah,
• 39:19
  he. He's good now. When I when I quit mentoring him, he
• 39:22
  was. He was digesting a. Okay, as far as I'm
• 39:25
  aware. So,
• 39:26
  um, yeah,
• 39:29
  so no snacks? Is that, like, a strict no
• 39:32
  snacks ever?
• 39:33
  >> Shaloah Powell: No snacks. Like, if I'm. If I'm
• 39:35
  taking a relaxing bath, like, it's been a
• 39:38
  crappy day at work. Ton of people said a lot of bad
• 39:41
  things.
• 39:43
  >> Hunter Hoover: People are great, and they never are mean,
• 39:46
  ever.
• 39:46
  >> Shaloah Powell: I will say if you're gonna cuss at me, it has to be creative. I have
• 39:49
  a few fun, creative ones that I love.
• 39:52
  Um, just real quick. My
• 39:55
  top favorite is a woman that
• 39:58
  our cleanings are booked eight months out.
• 40:01
  >> Hunter Hoover: Holy.
• 40:01
  >> Shaloah Powell: She has ohp. So wherever she goes, the cleanings are going
• 40:04
  to be way booked out, and it's for her child,
• 40:08
  and their appointment was a week out, and she was calling
• 40:10
  to confirm the date and time.
• 40:12
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah.
• 40:13
  >> Shaloah Powell: In the middle, she interrupts me, and she's like,
• 40:16
  cancel the appointment. I'm gonna go somewhere else because your
• 40:19
  voice is too.
• 40:23
  And she hung up.
• 40:24
  >> Hunter Hoover: Oh, my gosh.
• 40:25
  >> Shaloah Powell: And so that's a clinic joke. Now,
• 40:28
  if you're listening to this, ma'am, you're a joke. In our
• 40:31
  clinic, you are a joke.
• 40:34
  You're a joke. Um, I don't even know, but, yeah, like,
• 40:37
  snat. Like, if it's been a bad day at work
• 40:40
  taking pre pregnancy, you'd have,
• 40:43
  you know, you'd have a little bit of alcohol. Now
• 40:46
  I have a sparkle water.
• 40:48
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah.
• 40:49
  >> Shaloah Powell: And you have a little charcuterie board.
• 40:52
  >> Hunter Hoover: Oh, dang.
• 40:52
  >> Shaloah Powell: You're like, you've got a little murder mystery.
• 40:55
  >> Hunter Hoover: All right. Hey.
• 40:58
  I don't understand, but I know that
• 41:01
  it's a thing. Cause Anna does it, not the shark. I've never seen the
• 41:04
  charcuterie. I don't even know how to say the word.
• 41:07
  >> Shaloah Powell: Like a girl dinner.
• 41:09
  >> Hunter Hoover: I don't know if Ana's ever done girl dinner in the batheous.
• 41:12
  >> Shaloah Powell: Like, look, it's part of the process.
• 41:15
  >> Hunter Hoover: There's been an iPad and a book and
• 41:18
  wine.
• 41:19
  >> Shaloah Powell: Mhm.
• 41:19
  >> Hunter Hoover: Or a fizzy drink.
• 41:23
  I'm trying to think that's all right.
• 41:25
  >> Shaloah Powell: But there's one exception.
• 41:27
  >> Hunter Hoover: Usually the bath is like, hey, Hunter, I'm gonna take a
• 41:29
  bath. And that's kind of like code word for
• 41:32
  you're on deck if one of these children wakes up, because
• 41:36
  I'm doing this now. Yeah.
• 41:39
  You know, you guys have that to look forward to. It'll be. That's a new
• 41:42
  dynamic. That'll be fun.
• 41:43
  >> Shaloah Powell: Yeah.
• 41:44
  >> Hunter Hoover: Has anyone ever. Has anyone ever prepped you on the first
• 41:47
  baby diaper? It's Jason's duty on that one, but
• 41:50
  so I told him, yeah, I've been.
• 41:52
  >> Shaloah Powell: Prepped on the first baby diaper, and, uh, the
• 41:54
  baby period. Because we're having a
• 41:57
  girl.
• 41:58
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yes. I didn't know about the baby, the baby
• 42:01
  period. So I learned. So when Silas was born, he
• 42:04
  pooped. It's a good thing. But it
• 42:07
  looks like black tar heroin. Yeah, first. The first one. And I
• 42:10
  thought he was, I thought there was something bad. I was like,
• 42:13
  doctor, there's something wrong with my child. And he goes,
• 42:16
  no. And I looked at it, and I went, that
• 42:19
  is not normal. And then Sarah had, like, blood
• 42:22
  in her diaper, and I went, oh, my gosh.
• 42:25
  Uh, Anna. And she, that was where they're like,
• 42:28
  yeah, babies. All the hormones, they'll have a little. I'm like, nuh
• 42:31
  uh uh. No. I would.
• 42:32
  >> Shaloah Powell: Sometimes they have the black tar poop, like,
• 42:35
  before they come out, and then it's just in your
• 42:37
  amniotic fluid. Gross.
• 42:40
  So then, so they prep you, and
• 42:43
  they're like, hey, if it comes out
• 42:46
  green and, like, gross,
• 42:49
  there's any black in there, they're like,
• 42:51
  we want to make sure there's no infection.
• 42:54
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah, yeah,
• 42:56
  that's, that is heinous.
• 42:59
  I, um, mean, it's beautiful.
• 43:01
  >> Shaloah Powell: Question mark, maybe not that part. We don't have to
• 43:04
  call that part.
• 43:06
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah. Um.
• 43:08
  Wow. Well, so do you.
• 43:12
  That's all the questions I have. Uh, I do have, like, one last
• 43:15
  one that is at the end, but do you, do you have anything that you
• 43:18
  want to share with people either about, uh,
• 43:21
  being pregnant in the bathroom or, or Eller Stanlow's in the bathroom
• 43:24
  or any of those things?
• 43:25
  >> Shaloah Powell: Um, or just that time of peeing myself
• 43:28
  at work was pretty rough.
• 43:30
  >> Hunter Hoover: Did Jason bring you a change, if anything, or was it
• 43:33
  like, no, he's.
• 43:34
  >> Shaloah Powell: No, he was in his 1st 90 days of this new
• 43:37
  job.
• 43:37
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Ah. Um, so
• 43:40
  this is moderately so.
• 43:42
  >> Shaloah Powell: I just went home for the day. I was done.
• 43:45
  >> Hunter Hoover: I'm taking the day.
• 43:46
  >> Shaloah Powell: I was like, hey, guys. So I threw up out of my
• 43:49
  nose. I'm going home. They were like, yeah, that's fair.
• 43:52
  Um.
• 43:52
  >> Hunter Hoover: Um, that sounds
• 43:54
  bad. I
• 43:58
  I will do anything not to throw up, by the way. Like,
• 44:01
  nope, Anna's never seen me throw up.
• 44:04
  >> Shaloah Powell: You just gotta get used to it, man.
• 44:06
  >> Hunter Hoover: I will do anything not to.
• 44:10
  >> Shaloah Powell: Wow.
• 44:11
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah. So, uh, for the listener, Anna just
• 44:14
  shouted from the other room that it is, in fact,
• 44:16
  true. She's never seen me throw up.
• 44:19
  It's not because, like, I just. Yeah,
• 44:22
  uh, I will. I have to be almost dead to be
• 44:25
  throwing up. I hate it.
• 44:27
  >> Shaloah Powell: Well, okay, there is one story. There is one
• 44:30
  story. It is a period story. I don't know if it
• 44:33
  counts.
• 44:34
  >> Hunter Hoover: I mean, from what I can tell,
• 44:37
  that has a lot to do with the bathroom, so.
• 44:39
  >> Shaloah Powell: Okay. Because it is funny. And I think
• 44:42
  now that it's been like eight
• 44:45
  year, seven. How many years?
• 44:47
  We can laugh now. But,
• 44:51
  but, um, it was in high school
• 44:54
  and I was taking the act, so they took us out
• 44:57
  on buses to the boys and girls club in
• 44:59
  town.
• 45:00
  >> Hunter Hoover: So we're all you to the act. The boys and girls
• 45:03
  club?
• 45:03
  >> Shaloah Powell: Yeah.
• 45:04
  >> Hunter Hoover: Oh, my God.
• 45:05
  >> Shaloah Powell: So we're all in these desks and
• 45:08
  I'm in the back of the gym. So I have
• 45:10
  to. To walk out in front of everybody, my
• 45:13
  whole class to leave, to go to the
• 45:16
  bathroom. And I had,
• 45:19
  um, these, like,
• 45:21
  green. These like, lighter olive green
• 45:24
  pants.
• 45:27
  So, um. And you could only
• 45:30
  get up at certain times to use the bathroom. And I'm
• 45:33
  like, if I get up at any point, like, I don't want them to
• 45:35
  fail me because they were so serious.
• 45:38
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah.
• 45:39
  >> Shaloah Powell: So in the middle, like, I
• 45:42
  finally get up. Cause I'm like, it'll be too big of a problem. They
• 45:45
  didn't fail me. It was fine. But I had to walk out in front of
• 45:48
  my entire class looking like a
• 45:51
  Christmas tree. And then
• 45:54
  when I finally walked back in, my mom brought me a
• 45:57
  different pair of pants. So then I have to walk back in front of my whole
• 46:00
  class for a pair of pants.
• 46:02
  >> Hunter Hoover: Ah.
• 46:03
  >> Shaloah Powell: So it was really, uh. I was horrified at the
• 46:06
  time.
• 46:06
  >> Hunter Hoover: Is that like.
• 46:07
  >> Shaloah Powell: But you know, you just.
• 46:09
  >> Hunter Hoover: You gotta laugh that, I
• 46:12
  guess, cuz no guy has ever
• 46:15
  had anything that is like
• 46:17
  that. It's just not a reality.
• 46:21
  The only thing that a guy can do is totally crap their
• 46:24
  pants in the middle of something.
• 46:27
  That's all right. Does every.
• 46:32
  Does every girl have a story like that?
• 46:35
  >> Shaloah Powell: I think most. I mean, I have multiple.
• 46:37
  >> Hunter Hoover: That's crazy. It does,
• 46:41
  huh huh?
• 46:42
  >> Shaloah Powell: It's just part of. Part of the deal.
• 46:45
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah, it is, but it doesn't. It seems
• 46:48
  like awful in every
• 46:50
  way.
• 46:52
  >> Shaloah Powell: It's. It's fine.
• 46:54
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah, it's all right,
• 46:57
  Mandy. But at least
• 47:00
  you, you know.
• 47:01
  >> Shaloah Powell: You know, I do laugh now.
• 47:05
  >> Hunter Hoover: That's good. M. That would be
• 47:07
  tough. I, uh, uh.
• 47:10
  Yeah, I dread
• 47:13
  the day that, like, Sarah,
• 47:16
  that. That calls going straight to Anna, cuz. Nah
• 47:19
  uh, no. Yeah, it's outside
• 47:22
  of my. Well, you guys are having a girl.
• 47:25
  >> Shaloah Powell: Yeah.
• 47:26
  >> Hunter Hoover: Make Jason deal with it. That'll be fun.
• 47:28
  >> Shaloah Powell: No, I can do it.
• 47:30
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah, man, that's crazy.
• 47:32
  >> Shaloah Powell: I'm happy to do it.
• 47:34
  >> Hunter Hoover: Did anybody give, like, people are awful. Did
• 47:36
  anybody give you, like, crap for it? Or is it
• 47:39
  one of those things where it's like, it is what it
• 47:42
  is.
• 47:43
  >> Shaloah Powell: No one gave me, like, it just was what it was.
• 47:45
  Like, you know, like,
• 47:48
  back, back then in middle school, there was a lot of
• 47:51
  stigma of, like, oh, uh, you don't have. Use
• 47:53
  tampons. Like, you're not a little kid.
• 47:56
  Like, I'm like, oh, I, um, have
• 47:59
  a disorder.
• 48:00
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah.
• 48:01
  >> Shaloah Powell: Um huh. So I don't know if that's still a thing,
• 48:04
  but that was, like, the worst of it is. People would judge
• 48:07
  you.
• 48:07
  >> Hunter Hoover: Well, nowadays, the tampons are just everywhere. Like,
• 48:10
  they're in the men's bathroom at the high school. So that's fun.
• 48:13
  >> Shaloah Powell: And they're filled with arsenic.
• 48:14
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah. And they turn them into giant bowling balls and
• 48:17
  sling the wet tampons down the hallway and
• 48:20
  played tampon bowling. That is a real thing that
• 48:23
  happened at your previous former high
• 48:26
  school.
• 48:27
  >> Shaloah Powell: Hey, I'm. I'm gone. I've been gone
• 48:29
  for, for quite a while now.
• 48:31
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah.
• 48:32
  >> Shaloah Powell: Um, thankfully, I haven't had to deal with any of that at
• 48:35
  work. Yeah. Like, sometimes they won't wrap them
• 48:37
  before throwing them away.
• 48:39
  >> Hunter Hoover: At least they throw away.
• 48:41
  >> Shaloah Powell: Yeah, but it's in the garbage. Like, most of the work
• 48:44
  is done. I just have to change the.
• 48:46
  >> Hunter Hoover: The. Oh, God. So when I was a
• 48:49
  janitor in Salem, the office that I worked for was,
• 48:52
  like, 90% female.
• 48:55
  And the ladies would flush their tampons, which
• 48:58
  is fine, but they swell up, and
• 49:01
  we're on septic there.
• 49:03
  Don't flush them. Anyway.
• 49:05
  >> Shaloah Powell: Uh, I don't understand why you, as a grown adult, would
• 49:08
  flush.
• 49:09
  >> Hunter Hoover: They would, and they would get, like, it when it would get
• 49:11
  bad, it would get stuck in the s bend, and I. And they
• 49:14
  would swell up and pluck it, and it's like, you dumb.
• 49:17
  You're just stupid. Well, that
• 49:20
  story was. I'm sorry that happened. I'm glad you can
• 49:23
  laugh about it.
• 49:24
  >> Shaloah Powell: You don't have to share it if you don't want to, but I'm open.
• 49:26
  >> Hunter Hoover: If you're open about it, it'll probably land in there, because I'll be
• 49:29
  honest. Besides Anna and, like, Kimberly was a half because
• 49:32
  she was with Michael. And so it was a lot of
• 49:35
  Kimberly making fun of Michael. You're, like, the first, like,
• 49:38
  lady perspective other than Anna on this show.
• 49:40
  >> Shaloah Powell: I'm just glad I wore green pants that day so I could be festive.
• 49:45
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yep. It's like, okay, yeah.
• 49:48
  >> Shaloah Powell: So that's, you know.
• 49:50
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah. Is that what the whole, like, don't wear
• 49:53
  white after whatever time of year is? Is that what that's
• 49:56
  about? Memorial Day, Labor Day? Is that what that's
• 49:59
  about?
• 50:00
  >> Shaloah Powell: Uh, I don't.
• 50:00
  >> Hunter Hoover: I never understood it.
• 50:01
  >> Shaloah Powell: I don't think so.
• 50:02
  >> Hunter Hoover: I don't know. I'm not gonna try to figure it out.
• 50:06
  >> Shaloah Powell: I have no clue what it's
• 50:09
  about.
• 50:10
  >> Hunter Hoover: Um, that sounds awful.
• 50:12
  >> Shaloah Powell: I would suggest wearing white if you're on your period.
• 50:15
  >> Hunter Hoover: That's good advice. I feel like then you're just begging.
• 50:18
  >> Shaloah Powell: For, don't wear khakis either.
• 50:19
  >> Hunter Hoover: Don't worry. Okay. Um.
• 50:22
  Hey. There you go. Do you have any
• 50:24
  bathroom wisdom that you want to leave people with
• 50:27
  other than don't wear white when you're on your
• 50:30
  period?
• 50:33
  >> Shaloah Powell: Not really.
• 50:34
  >> Hunter Hoover: Okay.
• 50:35
  >> Shaloah Powell: Um. I have no good
• 50:37
  system.
• 50:38
  >> Hunter Hoover: Oh, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. I almost. I
• 50:41
  almost squandered an opportunity. So the
• 50:44
  longstanding toilet. Toilet seat, up or down?
• 50:47
  You're, uh. I know where Anna's at. We've.
• 50:50
  But you as a
• 50:52
  lady. The toilet seat, up or down? I need you to weigh
• 50:55
  in as a lady.
• 50:56
  >> Shaloah Powell: I think I have a controversial opinion.
• 50:58
  >> Hunter Hoover: Oh, perfect.
• 51:00
  >> Shaloah Powell: Um, and if.
• 51:01
  >> Hunter Hoover: And if my wife is in the other room listening, she can go ahead and tap
• 51:04
  into this one.
• 51:06
  >> Shaloah Powell: Well, I'm not. So
• 51:09
  my thing is, I think if you're in a house
• 51:11
  of mostly women, you should put it
• 51:14
  down. But if it's a house of mostly men, like,
• 51:17
  if you leave it up.
• 51:18
  >> Hunter Hoover: What if it's, like.
• 51:19
  >> Shaloah Powell: It takes just as much effort either way.
• 51:22
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah.
• 51:23
  >> Shaloah Powell: Like, I think in general, it's good to put it down,
• 51:25
  because sometimes guys need it down, too, you know?
• 51:28
  Yeah, but, like, if j. Like, in the few times
• 51:31
  Jason has left it up,
• 51:33
  like, it hasn't been a huge. Like, I just
• 51:36
  checked.
• 51:37
  >> Hunter Hoover: You just see it and put it down.
• 51:39
  >> Shaloah Powell: Yeah.
• 51:39
  >> Hunter Hoover: Right. So what if the household split
• 51:42
  exactly 50 50, boy,
• 51:45
  girl.
• 51:46
  >> Shaloah Powell: Then mom makes rules.
• 51:47
  >> Hunter Hoover: Oh, shoot.
• 51:49
  >> Shaloah Powell: Well, mom's always in charge.
• 51:52
  >> Hunter Hoover: All right. I can't even argue with it. Um,
• 51:54
  well, very good. I, uh, appreciate you being
• 51:57
  here. Um, hopefully, this isn't. It's
• 52:00
  probably maybe the weirdest thing. You did have birthing class
• 52:02
  earlier, so.
• 52:04
  >> Shaloah Powell: I've done a lot. I've been through a lot of weird stuff.
• 52:06
  >> Hunter Hoover: Perfect. Um, well, I appreciate you being
• 52:09
  here. Uh, yeah.
• 52:12
  Thank you. Uh, I'm gonna do the weird, like, close
• 52:15
  out the show. I always tell people. I feel
• 52:18
  like if you've ever. So, like, when dogs go to the bathroom in
• 52:21
  the backyard, they are stuck
• 52:24
  and, like, if you watch them, they know you're watching. That's how I feel every
• 52:27
  time I.
• 52:27
  >> Shaloah Powell: Close the show, I feel like I'm about
• 52:30
  to watch a dog poop in a yard, so.
• 52:33
  >> Hunter Hoover: Yeah. Well, thank you for being here. Thank you so much for
• 52:36
  listening. Um, as always, you can follow us,
• 52:38
  uh, on social media. I'm not going to read all those things
• 52:41
  because I hate them all. M but do
• 52:44
  you want people to find you on the Internet?
• 52:46
  >> Shaloah Powell: No.
• 52:46
  >> Hunter Hoover: Perfect. Uh, yeah, thanks for Kevin and Poddington for
• 52:49
  the use of their music. Uh, this is the end of another episode of
• 52:52
  Privy. Thank, uh, you so much for listening. Keep pooping
• 52:55
  in the free world. And as always, don't forget to flash.
• 52:59
  Then I just. This is the
• 53:01
  maneuver. Every time that gets edited out, I just cram it back there.
