April 13, 2021NTP 058: Eye Holes and Superstitions
Lourdes and Tello reflect on if the last episode was appropriate for children, even though her child was a part of the last show.

Number Two Cuz has to take her glasses off during the show because they have a bad issue with reflection.

Lourdes was having an issue with her vision, and her coworker thought it could be the worst case scenario.

Lourdes’ doctor felt it might be an emergency situation, so he recommended a specialist.

The doctor requested that Number Two Cuz get laser surgery as quickly as possible to address her eye-hole.

When Number Two Cuz went in for laser surgery, the doctor had some trouble with his equipment. He was surprised because it had never happened to him before.

Number Two Cuz wears a red bracelet to protect her from “bad juju”.

Tello is not familiar with that superstition, but he is eager to talk about some research he’s done on Mexican superstitions.

Lourdes tells a couple of stories of friends and relatives who also wear red bracelets to protect them from bad luck, and she recalls a story where her mother-in-law used red thread to protect her daughter from ojo (the evil eye).

Tello reads excerpts from an article on how superstitions affect our psychology and well-being, and it’s not always a bad thing.

Tello talks about how superstitions give people a false sense of control over their outer condition, i.e. doing the sign of the cross when a black cat crosses their path.

Superstitions can be used to enhance performance in some people.

For many people it’s easier to pay the cost of a cheap superstition than risk the outcome of any bad luck.

Tello reads through a list of Mexican superstitions to see if Number Two Cuz is familiar with any of them.

Watching a dog poop is said to cause a stye or pimple in your eye, and Tello thinks this is how Number Two Cuz got her eye hole.

March 30, 2021NTP 057: An Awkward Conversation
Number Two Cuz brings her daughter Pila to be a guest on the show today.

Pila starts the show off with a gross story of why she needs to shower.

Tello starts off by recapping Lourdes’ spaghetti dinner story with Pila to see what her thoughts were on the situation.

Pila thinks that the spaghetti dinner might have been her dad’s first time not enjoying a meal.

Lourdes’s husband “Homie” doesn’t like much else beyond Mexican food.

Pila and her sister Isabel were in agreement with not giving their dad options for dinner.

Pila recalls a time when they made a fake plate of food for their dad when he said he’d eat “whatever” for dinner.

Tello “turns off” Number Two Cuz’s headphones so he can ask Pila how she really feels about her mom.

Lourdes gets upset when she works late, and her husband doesn’t start dinner.

Tello recalls a time when Homie was cooking, and didn’t wash his hands after using the restroom. Lourdes has noticed that her husband often doesn’t wash his hands when he goes to the bathroom.

Lourdes confronted her husband and son on this, and it lead to an awkward conversation about how men clean themselves after urinating.

Tello tried his best to explain that a great majority of men don’t wipe themselves after going number one.

The conversation almost turns into a battle of the sexes as Tello tries to explain why men don’t think of cleaning their fronts like they do their behinds.

Lourdes is flabbergasted by this revelation, and Tello is embarrassed to have this conversation in front of Pila.

This lead to Tello talking about giving a urine sample, and accidentally making a mess.

Lourdes recalls the night of Pila’s birth.

Lourdes gives Pila’s age in months, and Tello confesses that he hates when people give their babies age in months after they’re a year old.

Lourdes complains that after having children, she sometimes pees a little when she coughs or sneezes. Tello asks repeatedly if Number Two Cuz has to wear diapers.

Pila confesses that she’s not that much of a drinker, and she doesn’t think she can get high.

Lourdes and Pila recall a family dinner where they asked their Google assistant about condoms.

Pila’s brother Luis thinks condoms are bad for the environment, so he thought it would be best not to use them. Pila disagreed, and they had a family conversation about condom use.

Pila talks about getting “the talk” from her aunt Phoebe, and a much more uncomfortable “talk” her grandma Monkey gave her.

Lourdes has encouraged her children to seek therapy, and Tello agrees that it’s probably a good idea.

Tello mentions some organizations he donated to in order to help people who were affected by the Texas storm. If you’d like to help, please consider donating to:
https://toofound.org/
https://setxfoodbank.org/donate/

Tello surprises Number Two Cuz by asking her to define “colloquialism” to the audience.

Tello reads some Mexican Slang to see if Lourdes has ever heard of them.

Tello is surprised that “pendejo” literally translates to “pubic hair.”

Lourdes and Tello want to popularize “disparan la mierda” as a Spanish slang.

Tello also wants to popularize “Que Wow!” as a Spanglish slang.
