navel

I just think of a belly button.

My first mind went to a belly button, like navel, The Navel and the Moon.

[laughs]

No, there's a silent K on it.

True or false? [upbeat music] Listen up.

True or false, belly button fluff is partly made from tiny fibers that come off your clothing.

Think.

[upbeat music] Think.

The answer is true.

The fibers mix with dead skin, body oils, and tiny hairs before gathering in your belly button.

Sounds like you can find all sorts of things down there.

[upbeat music] What can you find in your belly button hole? A pie with sauce or a sausage roll.

Again.

Has your belly button ever itched? Mine did.

I was on the couch watching TV when I felt this itching right there.

It was so sudden and intense, I thought something was burrowing into my skin, my mind reeling back to a memory from when I was six and a leech got stuck in my sleeping bag on a camping trip.

Well, not nothing.

There was something hiding right in the inner fold when I went digging with my finger.

was a string just like you find in sewing kits i wondered how it got there but i didn't care much other than to remember the nuance that had caused the sudden itching i yanked casually but suddenly my vision was blurry and i lost feeling in my legs as pain surged through my body when my vision returned i looked back down at a string now loosely hanging off of my belly button I didn't know what the fuck this thing was, but I had to get it out of me.

I gently placed the string between my fingers, getting a good grip on it as possible.

Sit back and submerge yourself in an epic, full-length narrative spanning more than four decades of defiance, diplomacy, and an enduring legacy that continues to inspire the world.

Chapter 1, The Umbilicus and the Omens, 1582-1595.

The rains have not yet come to Undongo in this year of 1582, and the red earth of Cabasa waits, cracked and patient, beneath a sky the color of hammered bronze.

Inside the royal enclosure, behind walls of packed clay and woven palm fiber, a woman's cries rise and fall with the rhythm of something ancient and inevitable.

And that is what I'm loving this week.

Um, so I have a response to belly button gate.

Fun.

Oh.

Please hold caller.

And I'm already thinking you had a lot of responses from people on Instagram about belly button gate, didn't you?

Yeah, and I got a lot of private messages.

Jesus.

Jaw.

throat, right collarbone, left collarbone, right chest, left chest, middle of the chest, Navel.

Upper abdomen.

Lower abdomen.

i mean show a little navel you might be a loose woman

One hopes.

Whenever I show Navel, it's like there's car keys in there or

something.

$20 is $20.

If you want to, I saw you working on a little bit of a particular thing, if you want to have people listen to my point here with that up, Jayden, you can [laughs] you can take it down, take it down, but just split it.

We just had a lot of fun, and I really, I am grateful to Mr. um, Belly Button because he made us have a lot of joy the first time we saw this clip, and it's, it's all love.

It's all love.

Uh, but I really do appreciate his belly button.

So, um, do you remember there when Trump said he was not going to his son's wedding? Do you think there's any chance the reason for this is he had, uh, he had heard scuttlebutt that said wedding, or at least said post-wedding party, would be funded by a Russian oligarch? And if the president was at a party that was a lavish gift to his family, and he was benefiting from it, it would be even more of a bad look as he's actively supposed to impartially be getting...

Actually, he should be partial to supporting Ukraine while giving a resolution.
