Matty McLeanHOST
Someone posted in our mint slices an anonymous suggestion for Am I a Weirdo? They said, hey, you two, I have a question for Am I a Weirdo? I do something that may freak people out.
Matty McLeanHOST
I put clear nail polish on top of my legs and then pick it off.
Matty McLeanHOST
I need help.
Matty McLeanHOST
I'm weird, eh?
Matty McLeanHOST
eh?
PJ HardingHOST
I get the picking off thing.
PJ HardingHOST
I just hate the idea of putting nail polish on my skin.
PJ HardingHOST
That just literally makes me get the ick a little bit.
Jennifer VinoHOST
And now let's begin.
Jennifer VinoHOST
This story is called The Traveling Journal, and it's about a rainy afternoon, a favorite nail polish color, and a handful of rose petals.
Jennifer VinoHOST
A package arrives at my door this morning, a padded envelope with my name written across the front in familiar handwriting.
Jennifer VinoHOST
We started this scrapbook a few winters ago, when we were both missing pieces of one another's lives.
Jennifer VinoHOST
It was a screening of a movie I hadn't seen yet, one my friend had recommended.
Jennifer VinoHOST
I slide the ticket beneath a photograph from the theater lobby and write about the rain, the warm paper cup of coffee between my hands, and having nowhere else to be.
Jennifer VinoHOST
In my purse I find a rectangle I tore from a notepad with a streak of deep purple nail polish across it.
Jennifer VinoHOST
I put the color there a few weeks ago after doing my nails at the kitchen island.
AshleyAUDIENCE
He's three years old, by the way.
AshleyAUDIENCE
He went upstairs in my bathroom, opened the window himself, went in my cupboard, got nail polish, opened it and threw it on top of her white equinox that she just bought.
speaker_3HOST
Her car?
AshleyAUDIENCE
Her car.
JohnnyHOST
Kind of like...
JohnnyHOST
There's, like, an old Chanel holographic nail polish that people, like, freak out about.
JohnnyHOST
And it kind of dries down like that did.
TylerHOST
Yeah.
TylerHOST
mind that.
TylerHOST
If you want to.
TylerHOST
Send us some nail polish.
JohnnyHOST
Sure.
Matty McLeanHOST
And you'll hear from someone who gatecrashed a party of a very famous person.
PJ HardingHOST
Also, peeling nail polish off your skin.
PJ HardingHOST

Matty McLeanHOST
And you'll find out what is still making me and PJ laugh a lot.

Matty McLeanHOST
Anyway, that's not what this is about.
Matty McLeanHOST
Someone posted in our mint slices an anonymous suggestion for Am I a Weirdo? They said, hey, you two, I have a question for Am I a Weirdo? I do something that may freak people out.
Matty McLeanHOST

Matty McLeanHOST
I need help.
Bailey SarianHOST
But I wanted to know more.
Bailey SarianHOST
What's up with nail art? What's up with nail polish? nails in general.
Bailey SarianHOST
I want to know more.
Bailey SarianHOST
So I decided to find out.
6 MINS LATER
Bailey SarianHOST
In other words, like, you know, working in the fields like those other peasants.
Bailey SarianHOST
So the longer your nails were, the bigger the flex.
Bailey SarianHOST
And making your nails look as good as possible was so important, some sources say ancient China even invented the first form of nail polish in 3000 BC.
Bailey SarianHOST
I know, I was like, before Christ, what? Can you imagine Jesus with his toes painted?
Jenny HuttHOST
I have a new polish brand.
Jenny HuttHOST
Manicurist is the nail polish brand now that I'm using.
Jenny HuttHOST
And it's spelled M a N. U-C-U-R-I-S-T.
Jenny HuttHOST
So there's not an I, it's Manu Curist.
FBG ButtaGUEST
You feel me, Cool? [laughs]
Cam CaponeHOST
One of the things that's been going viral a lot lately is, uh, this picture with Drake with nail polish on.
Cam CaponeHOST
Have you seen that?
FBG ButtaGUEST
Yeah, I seen it.
Jerry KolberHOST
Welcome back to Smart EQ, where smartypants ask the questions and trusty narrators, like me, answer them.
Jerry KolberHOST
Today, we've got some cool and curious questions about bedbugs, nail polish, mailboxes, and what makes a fish a fish.
Jerry KolberHOST
So let's dive right in.
Jerry KolberHOST
Our first question comes from Aviva E., who asks, "Why do bedbugs like beds?" Well, that's quite a question.

Jerry KolberHOST
And now, back to Smart EQ.
Jerry KolberHOST
Our next question comes from Smarty Pants Sophia, also in Georgia, who asks, "How do they make nail polish?" Ooh, fun question, Sophia.
Jerry KolberHOST
Let's see.
Jalal ChamiHOST
So if putting hair extensions is forbidden, which is part of the hair, then wearing a wig which covers the whole head and extends the whole head and, and, and, uh, sort of, uh, yeah, masks the whole hair, then definitely it would be even worse.
Jalal ChamiHOST
Uh, another thing is using nail polish which prevents water from reaching the skin during wudu, reaching the nails.
Jalal ChamiHOST
It is incumbent upon the person performing wudu to ensure water reaches all of his skin, and this includes the nails.
Jalal ChamiHOST
Using nail polish prevents water from reaching all of the hand, and thus the obligation of wudu is not complete.
Jalal ChamiHOST
And if the wudu is not complete, therefore, the prayer will not be valid.
Jalal ChamiHOST
Allah Ta'ala says, [foreign language] "O you who have believed, when you intend to offer prayer, wash your faces and your hands up to your elbows and rub your heads and wash your feet up to the ankles." If the wudu is not complete, the prayer is not correct.
Jalal ChamiHOST
Which woman is pleased with her prayer not being accepted? Therefore, whoever uses nail polish must remove it before wudu.
Jalal ChamiHOST
And so this is, again, a big temptation, a big challenge, a big test for women.
