Host: Bunnie XO
Guests/Co-hosts: Haley, Cash
Release Date: December 7, 2025

Episode Overview

This episode dives into two main topics with Bunnie XO and friends:

1. Addressing wild internet conspiracy theories surrounding Jelly Roll’s dramatic weight loss—specifically, the rumor that he’s been "cloned."
2. A hilariously candid, practical discussion of hygiene tips few parents ever teach—covering everything from body, skincare, and period products to intimate health.

Throughout, the tone is unfiltered, supportive, and packed with riotous laughter. The crew tackles sensitive and “taboo” topics in a welcoming, real-talk environment.

Key Discussion Points

1. The Jelly Roll “Clone” Conspiracy

Timestamps: 07:02–31:31

• Bunnie opens up about conspiracies:

  “I used to pride myself on being a conspiracy theorist…until my husband and I became the conspiracy.” (07:02)

• Discusses celebrity weight-loss rumors:
  • Other stars (Amy Schumer, Melissa McCarthy) have lost weight, but only Jelly Roll gets accused of being a clone or part of the Illuminati.
  • His weight loss journey was very public, dropping from almost 600 lbs to ~250 lbs over two years.
• Common arguments from conspiracy theorists:
  • Changes in appearance, like tattoos "moving" or a missing birthmark, are debunked by natural changes after drastic weight loss and mirrored images (front vs. selfie camera).
• Personal impact & internet trolls: Concern for mental health and the effect of scrutiny, not just on Jelly, but on Bunnie too (rumors she’s his “handler” or a “high-ranking witch”).
• Insight into conspiracy thinking:

  “Now people are just reaching…If you really go back in Google, go back [on] my YouTube…this was earned, it wasn’t given.” (13:32)

• On context and content:
  • Trolls misinterpret live clips or innocuous comments, twisting them into something sinister (example with kids watching their Twitch).
• “Black eye club” rumors:
  • Explains the makeup origins of a supposed “ritual” black eye—details the music video (never released) that required fake bruises.
  • Dissects “humiliation ritual” internet theories.
• Reflecting on conspiracy culture:

  “Now it makes me wonder, like, all the Jay-Z and Beyoncé stuff…It makes me question everything.” (19:26)

Notable Quote:

• Bunnie XO:

  “If my husband was a clone, don’t you think I’d be the first to be like, this motherfucker is not real?” (12:03)

• Cash:

  “If I have not stepped in a room with you, it is now hard for me to believe anything I hear about you.” (22:52)

2. GLP-1 Drugs, Weight Loss, & Hormones

Timestamps: 31:31–44:15

• Bunnie and friends discuss personal experiences with GLP-1 and related weight loss peptides (Retta, triazepatide, etc.).
• Side effects:
  • Bunnie describes severe side effects from triazepatide and then Retta (anxiety, sleep issues, heart racing). Electrolyte management and magnesium help.
• Insulin resistance, PCOS:
  • Both Haley and Cash share experiences with PCOS and the surprising ways these medications affected their cycles and health.
• Open talk about hormone health:

  “When I took triazepatide, I had my first period in a year.” –Haley (41:38)

Memorable Moment:

• Jelly Roll interrupts in a silly moment, farting and dancing (“squat, fart, do it on camera!”) bringing levity to a heavy health discussion (32:27–33:15).

3. Hygiene Tips Your Mom Never Taught You

Timestamps: 44:15–92:37 (Second half)

A. Everyday Bathing Debates

• "Do you wash your knees?"
  • The group debates whether people focus on body parts like kneecaps or just let water do the work (44:18).
• Loofahs vs. washcloths:
  • Concerns about bacteria; Haley prefers replacing loofahs frequently.
• Proper foot/heel cleaning: Use of pumice stones.

B. Hair, Deodorant, & Skin Myths

• Hair washing:

  “Washing your hair every single day is actually bad…can dry out your hair.” –Cash (46:15)

  • Trends like coconut oil/onion juice for hair are debunked as unnecessary or gross.
  • Dry shampoo tip: Spray on brush, not directly on scalp, to avoid aerosol buildup (65:17).
• BO & telling someone they stink:
  • How to broach the topic gently (“Your body odor is very pungent.”) and why it’s both mortifying and necessary sometimes.
• Armpit funk:
  • Bunnie finds her right armpit was spicy due to soap, not hygiene, and switching products resolved recurring UTIs and irritations.

C. Feminine Health Real-Talk

• Soap and the vulva/vagina:
  • Strong recommendation for fragrance-free, gentle cleansers (like Cetaphil baby wash).
  • Bunnie’s year-long journey to solve chronic UTIs: discovers switching soap is the key.
  • Medical tip: D-Mannose supplement for UTI prevention (highly recommended).
• Bacterial Vaginosis (BV):

  “If you have sex with a dude and your vagina starts smelling fishy, know for a fact that it is BV…Your dude needs to take the medication and rub Metrogel on his dick.” –Bunnie XO (73:17)

  • Passing bacteria back and forth is common; both partners need to treat it.
• Hygiene lessons for boys:
  • Teaching sons to properly wash all body parts, including under foreskin.
  • “More women than men wash their ass.” (70:11)
• Nail care tip:
  • Haley brings her own nail clippers to the salon to avoid fungus.

D. Shaving & Skincare Hacks

• Shaving bikini line:
  • Use men’s razors and baby oil to prevent bumps; always wash off oil after shaving.
• Makeup application and cleanliness:
  • Never use applicators directly on acne; use a clean brush and sanitize.
  • Wash brushes regularly; avoid contaminating products.
• Makeup and bathrooms:
  • Keep makeup OUT of humid bathrooms to avoid bacterial growth; store in dry/cool space.
  • “Do not store your makeup in your bathroom…condensation can get into your makeup, which can cause it to grow bacteria.” –Haley (77:01)
• Skin care minimalism:
  • Overuse of products (especially among teens) can be harmful. Bunnie, Cash, and Haley advocate simple routines, gentle cleansers, and (if needed) micro-needling/facials.
  • “You have to wash your face. Skincare is so important.” –Bunnie XO (79:40)

E. Period Products: Tampons, Pads, and Panties

• Tampon/pad warnings:
  • Bunnie stopped using tampons due to cramps and sensitivities; recent viral videos show mold on products.
• Period panties:
  • “They are the best thing that has ever been invented…even on your heaviest days.” –Bunnie XO (89:35)
  • Recommend nylon/stretchy varieties; easy to wash and safer for body.
  • Group discusses developing tampon sensitivities as they age.

Memorable Quotes and Moments

• Bunnie XO:

  “You can’t clone a soul. My husband is out here feeding inmates, going to homeless shelters…I could not see a clone wanting to be a humanitarian.” (25:10)

• Cash, on conspiracy kangarooing:

  “I feel like their own life isn't interesting enough, so they create these narratives to obsess over.” (26:06)

• On hygiene:

  “I think if you’re over the age of 18, a grown man, you should not have any streaks in your underwear…learn how to wash your ass.” –Guest (69:30)

• On being shamed for BV:

  “He would shame me, like, ‘you’ve got a dirty vagina,’ and I’ll be like, ‘I’m only with you.’” –Cash (75:52)
