What are peptides and how did they become mainstream?
This is an iHeart Podcast. Guaranteed human.
Another podcast from some SNL late-night comedy guy. Not quite. On Humor Me with Robert Smigel and Friends, me and hilarious guests from Bob Odenkirk to David Letterman help make you funnier. This week, my guests, SNL's Mikey Day and head writer Streeter Seidel, help an a cappella band with their between-songs banter. Where does your group perform? We do some retirement homes. Those people are starving for banter. Listen to Humor Me with Robert Smigel and friends on the iHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. A win is a win. A win is a win. I don't care what y'all say. Yep, that's me, Clifford Taylor IV. You might have seen the skits, my basketball and college football journey, or my career in sports media.
Well, now I'm bringing all of that excitement to my brand new podcast, The Clifford Show. This is a place for raw, unfiltered conversations with athletes, creators, and voices that not only deserve to be heard, but celebrated. So let's get to it. Listen to The Clifford Show on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. And for more behind the scenes, follow at Clifford and at TikTok Podcast Network on TikTok.
On the Look Back At It podcast. 1979, that was a big moment for me. 84 was big to me. I'm Sam Jay. And I'm Alex English. Each episode, we pick a year, unpack what went down, and try to make sense of how we survived it. With our friends, fellow comedians, and favorite authors. Like Mark Lamont Hill on the 80s. 84 was a wild year. It was a wild year.
I don't think there's a more important year for black people. Listen to Look Back at It on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hey, what's good, y'all? You're listening to Learn the Hard Way with your favorite therapist and host, Kier Gaines. This space is about Black men's experiences, having honest conversations that it's really not safe to have anywhere, but you're having them with a licensed professional who knows what he's doing. How many men... carry a suit of armor it signals to the world that you not to be played with and just because you have the capability that does not mean that you need to listen to learn the hard way on the iheart radio app apple podcast or wherever you get your podcast hi amber hi lola welcome to an unlikely affair
Welcome to an unlikely affair. You guys, I have spoken about one of my angels so many times. There are so many times that people are like, who does your lips? Who's injecting your face? And I always talk about Lee and I say skin tight aesthetics. This is where I go. But the amount of DMs I get every time I mention Lee's name is And it became overwhelming. And then I started a peptide journey and then it got really overwhelming. So this was like by popular demand. I have Lee Godfrey from Skintide Aesthetics. I've known you since very early on in my sobriety. At the time, a woman that I would go to meetings with was like, do you want to get your lips injected? I was like, fuck yeah, I do. We go to Lee and we have just been thick ever since.
So welcome, my love.
Thank you. Are you excited? I'm so excited to be on a podcast with you. Thank you for the invite.
Of course. So peptides, I want to say, started becoming part of like a larger conversation for me in the last year. When would you, Lee, say that people started like really honing in on peptides and how useful they are and it becoming now an obsession for people?
Let's say probably about a year or two years max when it got big. So I started before the pandemic, and it was kind of a hidden area. Nobody knew about it. It was mysterious. And now I'd say about maybe not quite two years, but...
Okay, so I actually wasn't that late to the game. That's so weird for me. I'm usually very late to the game. Can you describe for people what peptides are?
So they're basically amino acid chains, very small ones that actually signal our body to do something. So we make thousands and thousands of them. Every day, all day long.
