Topic: Surgery

Adam Curry introduces episode 90 of Mo Facts from the Texas Hill Country on February 20, 2023. Co-host Mo Facts discusses his recent oral surgery and the physical difficulty of speaking during the recording. The hosts preview the primary topic of the episode: the intersection of Big Tech and conservative media, specifically the public dispute involving Steven Crowder and The Daily Wire.

Adam Curry and Mo Facts open episode 89 from Texas and Northern Virginia respectively. They discuss technical difficulties and personal updates, including Adam's recovery from oral surgery. The hosts introduce the primary theme for the episode titled "The United States of Fear."

Adam Curry shares his observations on the fashion-driven nature of plastic surgery, from the "big breast" era of the 80s to the current "big butt" trend. Mo Facts expresses concern over the "cartoonish" extremes of modern enhancements, noting that many women are getting dangerous "butt shots" from unlicensed practitioners using industrial-grade silicone.

The "Markle Sparkle" is discussed in the context of plastic surgery trends, where women seek fillers to emulate Meghan Markle's facial structure. The segment explains the "Golden Ratio" and Fibonacci numbers as the scientific basis for perceived facial beauty. A vintage tutorial by Ern Westmore is used to illustrate how makeup and proportions are used to create the illusion of perfection.

The hosts discuss the 2014 incident where comedian Joan Rivers told a reporter that "Michelle is a trans." Rivers died shortly after during a routine throat procedure, leading to conspiracy theories about a "hit." The segment notes the media's total suppression of the comment and Obama's subsequent handwritten note to Melissa Rivers.

Michael Jackson's changing appearance and perceived desire to look white are discussed in the context of his immense cultural value. It is argued that Jackson was "too valuable to cancel" by the black community despite his physical transformation. His status as a global icon allowed him to navigate racial boundaries in a way that average individuals could not.

Michael Jackson’s physical transformation is discussed as a possible manifestation of the pressure to conform to white beauty standards. While he suffered from vitiligo, his extensive facial surgeries suggested a desire to move toward a more European appearance. The segment also questions the genetic lineage of his children and the black community's general acceptance of their identity despite their appearance.
