00:07
Hey guys, welcome back to Lincoln Bio.
00:10
I'm Jenny and I'm Alejandro and Happy Monday sister.
00:14
Happy Monday, a long weekend.
00:16
Dude. I had the Sunday scaries yesterday.
00:19
The Sunday scaries are so different when you have like a long
00:22
weekend. I forget how to do your job.
00:25
Yeah, it's like a Sunday terrifies horror story.
00:28
It's just different. It's more intense.
00:31
And speaking of Sunday scaries,
00:34
why don't we talk about why we don't take vacations?
00:37
Like I feel like we need a vacation from this four day
00:40
weekend. Oh, most definitely.
00:42
There's actually a report on it.
00:45
it's crazy and there's a,
00:47
a new Santo on the scene.
00:50
for us and us out there and we have an election update
00:54
Getting crazy, dude.
00:55
We're also talking mini skirts.
00:57
We have a hot take on them and my friend Barbara who
01:00
actually owns a lingerie and faja store stops by with some faja
01:08
you guys are going to want to see that and we have
01:11
some Taylor Swift tea to stick around the 24th annual vacation.
01:26
Deprivation report finds that Americans are more vacation deprived than ever.
01:31
Tell me something. I don't know,
01:33
brother, I need five more weeks of vacation to get back
01:36
to normal. Maybe it's like the cost of existing that makes
01:41
us not want to take vacations.
01:42
You know, like we didn't even want to deal with it
01:46
You can't even deal with it.
01:49
Like I need my bills to take a vacation.
01:54
Well, the report said that nearly half of Americans don't plan
01:57
on using their time off at all this year despite receiving 12
02:01
days off annually, the fewest of any country survey.
02:04
So again, we don't even get that many days off.
02:06
But the ones we do get off,
02:07
we don't want to use.
02:09
I get that though because it's like,
02:11
I think the culture and like working and all that.
02:14
shoot, if I take time off is my shit going to
02:19
oh my God. And then,
02:20
and then you have to,
02:21
before you go on vacation,
02:22
you have to work double to make sure you're covered for the
02:27
time you're off. Well,
02:28
American vacation deprivation has now hit an 11 year high at 65%
02:36
Rates are down in many other parts of the world though
02:39
My sister, I don't know,
02:40
I think we have to move to Europe or something because a
02:42
lot of countries out there,
02:43
they have the good vacation like system,
02:46
the good vacation vibes for the employees,
02:50
Spain the UK. What country do you think?
02:53
Ranks first brother in,
02:54
like the best vacation kind of?
02:56
What's the one with the Mykonos?
03:01
they, that looks like a vibe over there.
03:02
I feel like they would offer like a good vacation,
03:04
like, plan for their,
03:06
it's actually Austria Oscar.
03:09
Yeah, we're Arnold Schwarzenegger,
03:16
a race first with 25 days of paid vacation.
03:20
That's almost a month paid vacation that employees keyword are required you
03:29
have to take each year plus an additional 13 public holidays off
03:38
Do we gotta move to Austria?
03:39
How, how's the weather over there?
03:41
I don't know brother but I don't know if I can.
03:43
The the accents is not for me.
03:46
Come with me, if you want to leave,
03:49
go to vacation, come with me.
03:51
If you want to live,
03:52
brother, like live life,
03:55
that's what he meant all along.
03:58
Oh my God, a teenager who used the internet to spread
04:05
Catholicism will become the church's first millennial saint Carlo acutis who died
04:12
of leukemia at age 15 in 2006 is being called God's influencer
04:19
during his life. Carlo quoted website spreading the Catholic faith and
04:22
helped victims of bullying and homelessness.
04:25
His parents say he showed an interest in saints and miracles from
04:29
Carlo documented Catholic miracles on his website and the church says he
04:33
made his computer an instrument in the service of God.
04:35
So Carlo is credited with two healing miracles.
04:39
The Vatican says that in 2013,
04:42
he saved a Brazilian child who had a pancreatic condition.
04:47
The child prayed to acutis healed and survived.
04:51
And this year, the church says that Carl saved another child's
04:54
life. A Costa Rican girl was severely injured.
04:56
This may but miraculously survived after her mother prayed at acute's tomb
05:02
He was, he's our age.
05:04
Yeah, he's our age literally.
05:05
Yeah, he's our age and Dre being an influencer.
05:08
I want to be a saint like I'm like,
05:11
but you have to be pure to be a saint.
05:14
Maybe there's something there.
05:16
what do you think your saint thing would be your Santa Jenny
05:23
the land here that I help people with anxiety because I have
05:31
anxiety. So you heal them of their anxiety like a therapist
05:38
So I guess I'd be Santo hater because I like to
05:40
hate. I think it's a good thing though.
05:47
All right guys, time for an election update.
05:49
Joe Biden is standing firm.
05:51
He says he's fully committed to the race and determined to beat
05:54
Donald Trump in the 2024 presidential election.
05:57
So in a letter addressed to the Democrats on Capitol Hill,
06:01
Joe Biden shares that he is committed to staying in the race
06:05
and to beating Donald Trump.
06:08
Dang. Dude, I feel like with this letter like Biden
06:12
taking shots at all his haters and like,
06:14
you know, just trying to quiet them down like,
06:17
hold on. Like even people from his own party are like
06:20
kind of like no dude,
06:21
like stop. It was a little c you're done,
06:24
right? It was a little cringy.
06:27
Biden's standing on business though.
06:30
He said any weakening of resolve or lack of clarity about
06:35
the task ahead only helps Trump and hurts us basically saying,
06:40
don't lose focus. Well,
06:43
we're too busy talking about him and like Trump's doing his own
06:47
no, the focus is Trump too.
06:50
I get it. But my guy,
06:51
you can see comments everywhere.
06:52
Like people are like,
06:52
please Joe step down.
06:54
I don't know. What do you think?
06:55
Do you think he'll step down?
06:56
He doesn't sound like he is.
06:57
You want to hear what I think?
07:02
I mean, that's the US,
07:04
that debate was a fucking,
07:09
that's what it was the whole time.
07:11
Like it was just fucking hilarious.
07:14
No. Yeah. And I was like,
07:26
as a help, these guys are both old heads but one
07:28
is older than the other and they're both not backing down.
07:34
We couldn't get better candidates though.
07:36
For real. This is going to be interesting.
07:38
I don't know. What is he waiting for,
07:42
brother, look at him.
07:44
I don't know. Do you think his time is up?
07:48
You mean? I don't know,
07:50
dude, I just think again,
07:52
he's doubling down that he's not going to leave.
07:56
Ok? But like I doesn't want this to be a distraction
08:00
but it is a distraction and he's adding to the circus,
08:02
like you said. So the election goes on,
08:07
I guess. So we're just gonna have to wait and see
08:15
we've talked crop tops and fas and now it's time to address
08:21
micro mini skirts like I,
08:25
but I just don't know if it was designed for Latinas in
08:28
mind, dude, because you know,
08:29
we got that extra like truthfully,
08:32
it must be a dress because,
08:34
you know, we're kind of blessed,
08:36
you know, we've got a complaining and you know what I
08:40
this can often lead to wardrobe malfunctions.
08:44
I've experienced some up on multiple occasions,
08:47
you know, especially when I'm dancing perro intenso.
08:49
I mean, Pero s intenso and ready for the intenso part
08:53
Yeah, it's not built with that in mind.
08:57
I actually came across this tiktok from Maria and Mac talking
09:01
about this exact dilemma and we invited Maria to join us to
09:06
help discuss this dilemma.
09:08
Maria, welcome. Hello.
09:11
Most of the trends that are going on right now are not
09:14
meant for everybody as in like mainly for a size two white
09:19
girl which you go off.
09:21
You look great, but you can't catch me dead in a
09:24
my girl mini skirt in my Latina.
09:26
There we are not going to let me do that.
09:28
You're going to see everything and anything you can if I do
09:30
that. Thank you so much for joining us.
09:33
So we'll just jump right into it.
09:34
What is with mini skirts?
09:36
What's going on? I saw them,
09:38
there are see them like on Pinterest all online and they look
09:41
very cute on these like very thin,
09:42
thin girls. They looked so Parisian so chic and I was
09:45
like, hey, I wanna try that out.
09:48
Ordered one from revolve.
09:50
It was scary. I couldn't move there.
09:53
There was no way like the back did one of these flips
09:57
that's not gonna work with my body t definitely a humbling experience
10:01
When you see something so cute on people online,
10:04
you order it, you try it out and then you're like
10:07
either stuck in it or it just really doesn't work out.
10:10
It's, it's heartbreaking.
10:12
what, how does it look like this on them?
10:14
There's some pieces. It's just not for me.
10:16
damn, I look like a muffin top but it's ok.
10:20
You know, if there was that store,
10:21
Brandy Melville, it was one size only.
10:24
I, I had to ask for help.
10:27
I got stuck in these shorts,
10:29
like stuck, stuck and my friends ought to come in and
10:32
help me because it was bad.
10:33
It was bad. What are other trends that weren't designed with
10:37
Latinas in mind? The straight cut denim maxi skirts?
10:42
The, those are so bad.
10:46
I also bought another favorite revolve the Hollister jeans from back in
10:52
the day. They'd either get stuck or if you got a
10:55
bigger size, it'd be so big around your waist.
11:00
The low rise jean that are like coming back.
11:03
Let's cancel them. I have a hack for this one.
11:06
I have a hack for this one for that one.
11:08
please because we need to know because it looks so cute.
11:11
So it's like oversized and,
11:15
So what I ended up doing,
11:16
you know what? My husband's jeans,
11:19
they always fit a little wiggly.
11:22
They're low waist and then usually I'll do like a bobby pin
11:25
in the back or if it's a decent or small little chip
11:30
So it fits around my waist.
11:31
It doesn't fall but it's nice,
11:33
loose and baggy and I don't have to spend any money.
11:36
That is intelligent. A chip clip.
11:41
I love the chip clip.
11:42
Genius. Amazing. I love that on the mannequins.
11:46
That's what they do.
11:47
You're so right. You pin the clothes they're wearing like a
11:50
size zero size two and you're pinning it on the mannequin normalize
11:54
wearing chip clips. Yeah,
11:55
the mannequins be looking snag.
11:57
They're like Tabi, which designers or brands do you think cater
12:01
to our bodies? Like which ones are getting it?
12:03
Right. Anyone that makes clothes with LYCRA,
12:06
it's ridiculous. But like what I found for my body type
12:10
anything that is snug and tight,
12:13
it's gonna look great.
12:15
I can pull it down if need be,
12:17
but it's not gonna fit weird or oddly shaped Levi's.
12:21
Oh no. Doctor Denim denim jeans.
12:25
They, they have a small waist so the way they fit
12:28
is like you put them on,
12:30
they're nice and snug on the hips,
12:32
nice and snug on the waist.
12:33
So it's very like perfect and the zipper goes all the way
12:36
down so you can actually jiggle into them.
12:41
I hate when the zippers just like it doesn't give you wiggle
12:45
room or they kind of like build up to your body.
12:49
That, that sounds promising that we'll be looking into that next
12:55
search though. I need to find the good swimsuits for these
13:00
body types. Swimsuits aren't fitting anyone nowadays.
13:02
Have you seen the gossip strip?
13:05
There's no way there's no way something about a pop out like
13:10
I'm trying to look good,
13:11
but I'm not trying to cause a scandal.
13:14
Marie. We really appreciate having you on the show.
13:17
Where can we follow you?
13:18
So you can just follow me on tiktok.
13:20
Mariel, Mac Ma Riel Ma K and you pronounce it.
13:24
Mariel, I am married to a white man.
13:28
there you go. That's cute.
13:31
That's cute. Faja have been holding us down.
13:40
I mean in for a long time and finding the right faja
13:48
is a journey. Honestly,
13:49
I feel like it finds you.
13:51
Oh yeah. So here to help me learn more about faja
13:54
culture is Barbie from Exotica lingerie.
13:58
Let's give it a hi welcome.
14:03
I'm so excited to be here.
14:04
Thank you for inviting me.
14:06
I am from Exotica lingerie and I brought all the faja.
14:12
With the faja who are purchasing them the most,
14:15
it's very diverse. It's for everyone.
14:17
It's not just the aesthetics but also for medical reasons.
14:21
I have young girls purchasing waist trainers so they can start waste
14:25
training the waist. Also have elderly women that either suffer from
14:29
sciatic nerve or just back problems.
14:33
the men that have the FSA and they have all that extra
14:35
pressure in the lower back.
14:37
So it's for anybody.
14:39
I've never heard about men wearing faja.
14:41
That's interesting. My dad has a little fans.
14:43
I feel like we should get our dad,
14:46
you know, for health reasons.
14:49
Exactly. For health reasons you can bring them in,
14:50
I'll size them and it's something to wear on a daily basis
14:54
It's just a matter of getting used to it off with
14:56
maybe a couple of hours a day and within a week,
14:59
there's no reason why you shouldn't be able to stand it.
15:01
So you're supposed to wear them every day.
15:03
You should, you should.
15:04
And is it true that it really does shape you?
15:08
There'll be a time where you can take it off and your
15:12
obviously it's not from one day to another.
15:14
It's a process, but instantly from wearing the garment,
15:18
you see the difference and that just,
15:20
it works with your self esteem.
15:22
It motivates you to want to wear it every day.
15:24
Next thing you know,
15:26
You start wearing it every day,
15:27
you start receiving results within weeks.
15:29
That's true. Of course,
15:31
the quality of the faja make a big difference.
15:35
The Faja is Colombian.
15:36
You know, they're Colombian.
15:37
Colombia is the capital of Faja.
15:39
Yeah, I think I wore my first faja when I was
15:47
that sounds dramatic where no,
15:50
it sounds dramatic. It I tried it on,
15:53
on a first communion dress shop.
16:00
You know, the Colombians,
16:02
we like we like our waist.
16:06
I did not wear that dress.
16:08
But that was my first experience with a faja.
16:11
Now tell me what is the right way to put them on
16:13
because it's always a struggle.
16:15
It is. But there's different types of faja,
16:20
there is the Chacos of this and there is the full body
16:25
faja. So you have to make sure you get the right
16:28
size you tuck in everything you lift and you just got to
16:31
make sure that you have comfort because at the end of the
16:33
day, if you're wearing something that is extremely tight,
16:36
it's going to defeat the purpose,
16:37
you're going to be very uncomfortable and you're going to be discouraged
16:40
in wearing it. I feel like the faha recently got like
16:43
we actually have a video of the senora putting it on me
16:48
honey. You never need a picker sign.
16:49
Come here. Let me show you a little trick.
16:53
Brace yourself. Oh Suck it in.
16:56
Squeeze those cheeks to suck it in.
17:00
Come on work with me.
17:03
I was like this like I was like,
17:05
oh shit, what is this?
17:07
it was really uncomfortable but I tried to go an extra size
17:14
and and the lady was like,
17:15
no, no saa and I'm just like girl,
17:19
I cannot breathe, my organs are screaming.
17:22
It's still going to work regardless.
17:23
But again, you want to make sure you have comfort because
17:26
if you can't breathe,
17:27
you're not going to want to wear it.
17:31
I think the world needs to see.
17:35
Let me see. Let's get into it.
17:39
So these are the ones that I carry at Exotica lingerie.
17:42
So this is the best trainer.
17:45
So this focuses all midsection,
17:48
upper back. So you don't get the Gorditos in the back
17:52
for your back. Posture and even for like sciatic nerve,
17:55
it helps relieve pressure.
18:05
All right, it covers all the upper back.
18:08
So the proper way of putting the waist trainer on,
18:11
we're going to tuck into the sides,
18:13
help me out with both sides,
18:14
grab both sides and turn it on this way.
18:16
just a little so you can see.
18:20
Oh snap, bring it in.
18:23
Lower. Your waist just disappeared.
18:27
Already. Did I disappear?
18:32
we want to make sure that we tuck in everything to the
18:34
side. So you don't feel suffocated in any way and we
18:37
don't create any creases or indentations as well.
18:41
Ok. Sorry Stone Street.
18:45
Now I can do it by myself,
18:54
It's Jenny from the block.
19:00
It looks what do y'all think?
19:04
BBL Jenny? It looks amazing.
19:07
Yeah. Turn it around so we can see your back and
19:09
so it covers all the back prevents from any love handles coming
19:15
It helps all the back posture.
19:16
Oh my God. It makes it look bigger and then when
19:19
you sit down, just make sure you sit down and maintain
19:21
your posture straight, boot job and everything.
19:29
guys, I see myself like a trip to Colombia.
19:35
Amazing. Thank you so much for coming.
19:38
Thank you for inviting me.
19:39
I love it. And where can we follow you?
19:42
Where can people find you?
19:43
So, I'm located in Downey next month.
19:45
I will be at the location for 14 years now and it's
19:50
lingerie. So I'm super excited and on Instagram,
19:53
I'm under exotica lingerie.
19:55
All one word. Awesome.
19:58
Check it out and I love how this is so embedded in
20:02
our culture. It really is.
20:04
It's like part of it is,
20:07
it definitely is. Well,
20:08
thank you so much for our pleasure.
20:10
Thank you. Give a round of applause.
20:16
Is this the downfall of Taylor Swift?
20:18
So there's a new documentary on Max,
20:20
right? Two parts with her side of the story and Scooter
20:23
Brown's side of the story regarding her masters and it's it's
20:27
messy, right? So to break this down for us
20:31
we're gonna have our in House Swifty,
20:33
Camil de Jesus join us and just lay out all the
20:38
Camila. Explain this to me.
20:39
What's going on Camila?
20:41
How are you? What's up?
20:48
Oh Can you just tell us like the gist of the documentary
21:20
Mhm So who was in the wrong?
21:23
Who do you think was in the wrong?
21:55
it's unethical. Yeah.
22:40
Yeah. Yeah. I think people are chopping her,
22:48
people have been canceling them off,
22:50
like cutting them loose.
22:51
So this guy's just freaking unhinged just,
22:56
I don't know. I mean,
22:57
that's what it seems like.
23:27
So get ready for that scooter documentary.
23:32
it seems like based on like what's going on,
23:34
like this Taylor Swift documentary was kind of just like AMMO for
23:37
the Taylor haters and people just looking for a reason to hate
23:42
her fan base. She has such a big fan base that
23:44
