Hank LedgerPope Leo goes into a Rome hospital Tuesday for lung surgery, and tonight my guest has already turned it into a sponsored morning routine.
Hank LedgerZephyrine Moncada, what is it?
Zephyrine MoncadaIt's the Holy Lung Reset, Hank. Warm lemon water, six deep breaths, and a jade roller shaped like a lung.
Zephyrine MoncadaUse my code HOLYLUNG for twenty percent off.
Hank LedgerThe Vatican says he faces about one week of recovery in the hospital, ahead of a Latin America tour. Have you spoken to anyone there?
Zephyrine MoncadaI've spoken to the energy of Rome. Use my code BREATHEEASY for the energy. Not the code I said before, that one has an issue.
Hank LedgerSo is that a no? Because the question was whether anyone at the Vatican knows you exist.
Zephyrine MoncadaThey know my content, which is wellness for people who are healing. Use my code POPEPOWER, and it's the real one this time.
Hank LedgerThat's the third code. I tried the first one, and the website says it does not exist.
Zephyrine MoncadaThe website is going through a transition, Hank. Codes are a journey, and my roller is the destination.
Hank LedgerA man is having surgery on his lung, and you are selling a roller. Who exactly is this for?
Zephyrine MoncadaFor anyone who wants to feel what he feels. Use my code LUNGLIFE and I'll throw in a free breathing candle.
Hank LedgerA candle. For lungs.
Zephyrine MoncadaIt's a candle that says breathe. It's very minimal.
Hank LedgerShow me one roller shipped, and I'll consider it. Just one.
Zephyrine MoncadaI'd settle for a bicycle at this point, Hank. They're all still in my cousin's garage.
Hank LedgerZephyrine Moncada, everyone. Rosa Ticks has Crime Watch next, and I hope nobody there is selling a candle.
