Speaker 2: I love Atlanta so damn much.

34
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:12,960
Speaker 1: I was shocked, I because I had I had to

35
00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:18,160
Speaker 1: fly out on Sunday for a rehearsal. Yes, I was

36
00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:22,720
Speaker 1: doing like a quote unquote stunt, which is there. It's

37
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:25,480
Speaker 1: not stunt related in any way, shape or form, but

38
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:29,880
Speaker 1: the business they call it stunt. And I don't think

39
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:33,280
Speaker 1: I can reveal anything that's okay. But so I had

40
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:36,239
Speaker 1: to do a stunt rehearsal on Monday at eight am

41
00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:40,600
Speaker 1: and then I didn't shoot until Friday at midnight.

42
00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:43,080
Speaker 2: Oh wow, So you had a week in Atlanta, but

43
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:44,160
Speaker 2: you had to be on call.

44
00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:47,080
Speaker 1: I had, and you're on call. And I was a

45
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:51,320
Speaker 1: full week in Atlanta. It was delightful, beautiful. I did

46
00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:55,680
Speaker 1: stand up every single night. The crowds were wonderful and fantastic,

47
00:02:57,919 --> 00:03:00,400
Speaker 1: and I wasn't for like for the week. I wasn't

48
00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:03,239
Speaker 1: drinking because I was like, you know, gonna.

49
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:04,960
Speaker 2: Shoot on camera. You don't want to want to.

50
00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:08,079
Speaker 1: I don't want a big old red Chilby face.

51
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:09,359
Speaker 2: No you don't.

52
00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:11,960
Speaker 1: And so I was just like going out to see

53
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:14,840
Speaker 1: movies because like it was a night shoot, and so

54
00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:16,880
Speaker 1: I was like prepping myself to be up in the

55
00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:20,200
Speaker 1: middle of the night. Yes, and and so I would

56
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:22,840
Speaker 1: go out and see a movie at like ten thirty

57
00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:25,680
Speaker 1: PM and it would get like twelve thirty one in

58
00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:28,400
Speaker 1: the morning, and then I would always walk home from

59
00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 1: wherever I was and I was like shot, Like, I mean,

60
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:36,960
Speaker 1: the areas I were in were obviously, like I guess, nicer,

61
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:39,480
Speaker 1: but it was just like I felt incredibly safe.

62
00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:41,680
Speaker 2: Of course, there.

63
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:44,240
Speaker 1: Was only one time. It was like two thirty in

64
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:48,640
Speaker 1: the morning and I was walking pretty and and it

65
00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:50,360
Speaker 1: was and I was like preparing. I was like, you know,

66
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:53,840
Speaker 1: I'm just used to the Baltimore thing where like people

67
00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:57,000
Speaker 1: are gonna come like cross the street to talk to you,

68
00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:00,080
Speaker 1: and then that's when like bad things happen, and so

69
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:04,080
Speaker 1: I would I had been thinking, if that happens, I'm

70
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:07,200
Speaker 1: just gonna act crazy because if you act crazy then

71
00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:09,920
Speaker 1: and also I'm going to recognize my privilege as a

72
00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:12,480
Speaker 1: tall white man to just walk through there. It is

73
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:15,360
Speaker 1: neighborhoods at two thirty in the morning and have no

74
00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:17,440
Speaker 1: one bothered me. But there was this one time where

75
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:20,560
Speaker 1: I was walking on a sidewalk and the sidewalk was

76
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:23,000
Speaker 1: ending in the half block. It was ending, so there's

77
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:26,280
Speaker 1: no reason for anyone to cross over to that side.

78
00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:30,479
Speaker 1: There was no buildings, there was no entrances, the sidewalk's ending.

79
00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:34,200
Speaker 1: I track that this dude sees me across the street.

80
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:37,720
Speaker 1: He's been walking following me, and then makes a beeline

81
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:40,480
Speaker 1: for me. I'm about to be in like this kind

82
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 1: of a corner where there's no light, and and he goes,

83
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:48,760
Speaker 1: hey man, and like comes up and then I just

84
00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:51,880
Speaker 1: and then I was gonna here's my acting crazy. I

85
00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 1: just stopped, put my hands up my waist and bent

86
00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:59,479
Speaker 1: over at a ninety degree angle and went.

87
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:02,800
Speaker 2: Ah ah, but that is crazy.

88
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:07,080
Speaker 1: It worked, But that was all unconscious, Like I did

89
00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:09,720
Speaker 1: that so quickly, but like in my mind, I was

90
00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:12,320
Speaker 1: going to do something like really crazy if this happened.

91
00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:14,880
Speaker 1: And then I just bent over ninety degree angle and

92
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:18,520
Speaker 1: he immediately turned around and crossed back over the street

93
00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:20,159
Speaker 1: like kind of ran away.

94
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:23,159
Speaker 2: That's great. That works all the time.

95
00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:27,480
Speaker 1: I mean, two thirty in the morning on a dark street,

96
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:31,480
Speaker 1: don't cross the street to talk to somebody. There's no reason.

97
00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:33,560
Speaker 1: Nothing happened well in that situation.

98
00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:36,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, all the conversation for the day is done. Well,

99
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:38,760
Speaker 2: you survived it, and that's what matters. But I'm excited

100
00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:41,440
Speaker 2: to see whatever this secret movie is. And I will

101
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:45,599
Speaker 2: yell stunt anytime you do anything besides talk, if you

102
00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:48,040
Speaker 2: do any movement at all, I'm going to shout stunt

103
00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:52,039
Speaker 2: at the screen and clap wildly. It was sounding dude,

104
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:52,760
Speaker 2: I'm pumped for you.

105
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:55,200
Speaker 1: Oh it was so fun, and I really do like

106
00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:58,680
Speaker 1: Atlanta is like walking around late at night. It was

107
00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:04,520
Speaker 1: I saw multiple times, multiple times people like tagging pieces,

108
00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:06,920
Speaker 1: like with spray paint, and it was just like out

109
00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:08,440
Speaker 1: in the open and they were just like, hey, what's

110
00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:09,880
Speaker 1: up man, And I was like, hey, how you doing?

111
00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:11,640
Speaker 1: And we just kept and it was not like a

112
00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:15,000
Speaker 1: big deal. Was like fascinating. I was like, this is

113
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:17,560
Speaker 1: another level. It's so cool.

114
00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:23,480
Speaker 2: I mentioned this a long time ago, but I wrote

115
00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:26,560
Speaker 2: a movie in like a fury. Once when I was

116
00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:29,200
Speaker 2: living in Atlanta, I went I got invited to play

117
00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:32,240
Speaker 2: Cranium with a bunch of at the time forty somethings

118
00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:35,880
Speaker 2: when I was twenty one, and within by the time

119
00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:38,880
Speaker 2: we picked the teams and everybody picked their like little player,

120
00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:43,159
Speaker 2: we probably got like two rounds in before everybody just

121
00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:45,880
Speaker 2: completely lost interest and started acting really shitty, and then

122
00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:47,599
Speaker 2: I mean shitty in a way that it was like,

123
00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:49,360
Speaker 2: why did we even set the game up? Let's just

124
00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:51,560
Speaker 2: drink and chat and eat food. That's a very nice

125
00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:55,840
Speaker 2: thing to do. It just no, this was twenty years ago,

126
00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:00,719
Speaker 2: and the person I was dating at the time was

127
00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:04,320
Speaker 2: not the greatest and everything that was coming to the

128
00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:06,200
Speaker 2: timing was terrible. But it was like a horrible night

129
00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 2: of board games and I was so frustrated, but I

130
00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:11,960
Speaker 2: didn't want to, like I didn't really know everybody, so

131
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:14,040
Speaker 2: I wasn't gonna be like are we gonna fucking play

132
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:17,520
Speaker 2: or not that I just like bottled it up. And

133
00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:21,880
Speaker 2: then that night, lying in bed angry, was like, I'm

134
00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:24,360
Speaker 2: gonna write a movie about a guy that goes to

135
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:26,560
Speaker 2: a board game night and he gets so angry at

136
00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:28,960
Speaker 2: everybody half passing it and then also being kind of

137
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:32,000
Speaker 2: jerks about like did you guys skip us, and you're like, well, yeah,

138
00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:34,760
Speaker 2: because you left and you disappeared for thirty five minutes

139
00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:37,720
Speaker 2: and we don't know where you went. And then the

140
00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:41,040
Speaker 2: whole premise was that he starts walking really late at

141
00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:44,640
Speaker 2: night and befriend's a graffiti artist and then starts doing

142
00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:47,920
Speaker 2: graffeedi with a teenager and it becomes the greatest passion

143
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:52,960
Speaker 2: of his life. And his horrible partner is like, where

144
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:55,080
Speaker 2: do you go? Are you having an affair? And he's

145
00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:57,920
Speaker 2: just making beautiful art around Atlanta. So to hear you

146
00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:00,440
Speaker 2: say that makes me think I should dust off what

147
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:04,400
Speaker 2: was called Cliff's board Games. And uh, yeah, man, that's

148
00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:06,320
Speaker 2: so funny. But yeah, I wrote a whole movie in

149
00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:08,440
Speaker 2: three days because I was so angry about what happened.

150
00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:10,320
Speaker 2: I was like, I gotta get this out.

151
00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:13,800
Speaker 1: That's so oh, I love that so much. And well,

152
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:16,440
Speaker 1: the second to the first time I seen people like,

153
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:19,200
Speaker 1: you know, like spray painting, I was just like, oh,

154
00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:21,520
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna let them do their thing and I'm

155
00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:23,520
Speaker 1: not gonna pay attention. And then the next and it

156
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:27,080
Speaker 1: was the next night, yes, in a different area, someone

157
00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:29,160
Speaker 1: was doing it, and there was a dude in front

158
00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:32,360
Speaker 1: of them in the bag and I was coming. I

159
00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:34,560
Speaker 1: was just like just gonna let them do their thing whatever,

160
00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:37,920
Speaker 1: and the dude immediately makes eye contact with me and goes, hey, man,

00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:40,000
Speaker 1: how you doing. I'm like good. He's like, listen, we

Speaker 1: ran out of onions and lemons, but we do have

163
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:46,240
Speaker 1: some garlic left, if you're interested. And I said, and

164
00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:48,640
Speaker 1: he said it so seriously, and I was like, no, man,

165
00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:51,600
Speaker 1: I'm good. I don't need any garlic right now, right

166
00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:55,240
Speaker 1: And he's like, all right, cool man, Hey, enjoy your walk.

00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:09,679
Speaker 2: Dude, you gotta work that into something. That's the funniest

171
00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:11,280
Speaker 2: thing a late night person could say to you. What

172
00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:13,120
Speaker 2: are they doing? A crawfish boil? I guess that's what

173
00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:13,840
Speaker 2: it sounds like.

174
00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:17,439
Speaker 1: No, sounds like there was no cooking, There was no

175
00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:19,480
Speaker 1: There was a bag and I looked in the bag

176
00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:21,880
Speaker 1: and there was like onions and garlic in the bag.

177
00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:24,360
Speaker 1: And he said, we're all out of lemons and onions, man,

178
00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:26,079
Speaker 1: but we do have some garlic left.

179
00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:29,120
Speaker 2: That is so crazy and I love that so much.

180
00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:32,400
Speaker 2: It sounds like they were doing a boil and that's

181
00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:37,280
Speaker 2: what was left over. My god, that's so good. All right, Well,

182
00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:40,439
Speaker 2: let's get into the strange news that made this podcast

183
00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:42,680
Speaker 2: medium famous.

184
00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:42,840
Speaker 3: All right.

185
00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:46,000
Speaker 1: So, yeah, so you might have seen this. It's been

186
00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:51,840
Speaker 1: all over the place that Google AI launched this thing

187
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:57,199
Speaker 1: where it's like essentially Google like the AI bot on

188
00:09:57,280 --> 00:09:59,600
Speaker 1: Google will do the googling for you. So yeah, just

189
00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:02,559
Speaker 1: a cent sum up articles and then just give you

190
00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:03,679
Speaker 1: the answer of whatever you look.

191
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,440
Speaker 2: That's great because googling was already so difficult. It was

192
00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:09,199
Speaker 2: one of the hardest tasks that ever happened in the

193
00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:09,800
Speaker 2: modern era.

194
00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:12,760
Speaker 1: It is so crazy. I've been listening to a lot

195
00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:16,160
Speaker 1: of podcasts, specifically the one the podcast Search Engine, which

196
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:18,920
Speaker 1: I really it's a good one I recommend, and they've

197
00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:21,120
Speaker 1: been talking about it with just like this is crazy

198
00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:24,079
Speaker 1: because if people no longer click over to the actual

199
00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:28,199
Speaker 1: article that's actually written by a human being, eventually all

200
00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:30,920
Speaker 1: those news agencies are going to go out of business

201
00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:32,520
Speaker 1: and then there's going to be no one to write

202
00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:35,640
Speaker 1: the articles that AI draws the answers from, and it'll

203
00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:38,160
Speaker 1: just be AI's the whole internet will just be ais

204
00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:41,160
Speaker 1: spewing out nonsense and copying each other.

205
00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:43,280
Speaker 2: Okay, which is crazy. Yeah, let's do it. That's great

206
00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:47,400
Speaker 2: for us. Our podcast will thrive in that environment. That's

207
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:52,360
Speaker 2: basically what we do. Yes.

208
00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:57,520
Speaker 1: So anyway, so they launched it for I Guess America

209
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:03,400
Speaker 1: this week, and and here's just some sample stuff that like,

210
00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:07,319
Speaker 1: these are just like mistakes that are fun. And if

211
00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:10,000
Speaker 1: you google smoking while pregnant, the AI over of you

212
00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:13,880
Speaker 1: pops up doctors recommend smoking two to three cigarettes per

213
00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:17,200
Speaker 1: day during pregnancy. It just straight up says that one

214
00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:23,000
Speaker 1: sentence about smoking while pregnant. Two cheese not sticking to pizza.

215
00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:26,239
Speaker 1: Cheese can slide off pizza for a number of reasons.

216
00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:29,000
Speaker 1: You can add about an eighth a cup of non

217
00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:31,760
Speaker 1: toxic glue to the sauce to get more tackiness.

218
00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:34,800
Speaker 2: Yeah that's smart. You do want to do that? My god,

219
00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:35,720
Speaker 2: this is so good.

220
00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:42,160
Speaker 1: Fruits that got so good. It just said fruits that

221
00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:47,480
Speaker 1: end with um. And here's the AI ad.

222
00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:48,040
Speaker 2: That's it.

223
00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:52,200
Speaker 1: Oh okay, here's the AI answer I got following fruits

224
00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:59,479
Speaker 1: end with um, applem, banana, strawberrium, tomato, um and coconutum.

225
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:03,160
Speaker 2: They're not wrong, They're not wrong. Those are fruits that

226
00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:06,680
Speaker 2: end with plumb. Was right there the whole way through, and.

227
00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:09,240
Speaker 1: It was right there. How many rocks shall I eat?

228
00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:12,880
Speaker 1: According to geologists that you see Berkeley, you should eat

229
00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:17,200
Speaker 1: at least what rock per day.

230
00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:19,720
Speaker 2: You know they must be hitting the onion. You know,

231
00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:23,320
Speaker 2: they must be hitting old joke sites and just assuming

232
00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:25,480
Speaker 2: it's real news, like sometimes.

233
00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:27,360
Speaker 1: Dumb people don't you're so smart?

234
00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:28,760
Speaker 2: Do you think that's what it is?

235
00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:33,439
Speaker 1: Well, specifically the rocks thing is from an Onion article

236
00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:36,640
Speaker 1: because I read a whole other article about where like

237
00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:38,640
Speaker 1: Google was like, we have to figure out where why

238
00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:40,400
Speaker 1: these are going bad? So they came up and they

239
00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:45,040
Speaker 1: found it. So it's mainly qua Reddit and the Onion

240
00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:46,600
Speaker 1: that were or.

241
00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:50,400
Speaker 2: I've used that a thousand times in my life and

242
00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:52,000
Speaker 2: never gotten the answer I was hoping to.

243
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:53,319
Speaker 1: No, not at all.

244
00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:55,040
Speaker 2: Can't believe that's still a website.

245
00:12:55,920 --> 00:13:02,040
Speaker 1: This what's funny? Can you train eight days a week? Yeah,

246
00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:05,160
Speaker 1: and it's just right away. Yes you can if.

247
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:07,440
Speaker 2: You're a gain if you're in a gain phase, yeah,

248
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:12,640
Speaker 2: you're training eight days a week. Man cutting phase, cut

249
00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:14,160
Speaker 2: it back to seven days.

250
00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:16,600
Speaker 1: A week oh man, I love this.

251
00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:20,480
Speaker 2: It's so good, and yet I am afraid of it.

252
00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:22,960
Speaker 2: I still am. I still fear it, but I am.

253
00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:27,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, because it's just like it does, seem like it's

254
00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:30,559
Speaker 1: you have to, you know, make your peace with it.

255
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:35,600
Speaker 1: But what what? I so Katie, not Natopolis, who has

256
00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:38,840
Speaker 1: been a guest on the show, who is an internet

257
00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:44,959
Speaker 1: journalist set slash Mary Prankster, decided to go ahead and

258
00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:49,040
Speaker 1: make the pizza with the one eighth of glue in it,

259
00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:56,119
Speaker 1: obviously for journalistic reasons, and it's on Insider Business Insider.

260
00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:59,480
Speaker 1: I think the majority of our business insider stuff might

261
00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:02,280
Speaker 1: be inspired by Katie.

262
00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:05,040
Speaker 2: Did the cheese slide off? That's the question that the

263
00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:09,240
Speaker 2: ban animals are just screaming at their pocket radios.

264
00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:12,520
Speaker 1: They are, and that answer will have to be for

265
00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:15,760
Speaker 1: someone who has a business insider a caret. There you go,

266
00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:19,320
Speaker 1: because I was unwilling to spend the twelve ninety five

267
00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:22,200
Speaker 1: to read Katie's what articles outside.

268
00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:25,360
Speaker 2: Katie, you're a business outsider, and so am I and

269
00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:29,000
Speaker 2: we will forever be business outsiders, and we encourage everybody

270
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:32,520
Speaker 2: listening be a business outsider. Unless you want to support Katie,

271
00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:34,160
Speaker 2: then become a business insider.

272
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:36,920
Speaker 1: I support you, Katie, and just not right in this

273
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:39,000
Speaker 1: specific Insider.

274
00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:42,440
Speaker 2: Looks dude, that's so funny. Yes, it's coming sort of

275
00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:44,760
Speaker 2: like all the stuff that's happening in the world now

276
00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:48,600
Speaker 2: that is just clearly climate change has already arrived. It

277
00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:52,840
Speaker 2: is so fascinating. Yeah, like now it's like just a

278
00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:55,960
Speaker 2: roller coaster. Here we go. All right, let's see what

279
00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:58,200
Speaker 2: it is. We'll see what goes on. I'm going to

280
00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:01,440
Speaker 2: drive up to Lake shaf Asta or Shasta Lake, whatever

281
00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:03,480
Speaker 2: it is in northern California because it's at one hundred

282
00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:06,200
Speaker 2: percent capacity, and I'm like, I don't think this is

283
00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:07,800
Speaker 2: going to ever happen again. So I'm going to road

284
00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:10,840
Speaker 2: trip sometime probably end of June, just to see like

285
00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:11,720
Speaker 2: Shasta full.

286
00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:14,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a great idea, you know what I mean.

287
00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:16,160
Speaker 2: I saw the photo and it was like it's at

288
00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:18,880
Speaker 2: ninety eight percent, but with the way things are coming together,

289
00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:21,000
Speaker 2: it's going to be over one hundred percent for the

290
00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:22,960
Speaker 2: first time. And I was like, well, I need to

291
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:26,600
Speaker 2: see this before it's just a puddle again. And we

292
00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:29,880
Speaker 2: all have one straw that we pass around before we

293
00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:30,600
Speaker 2: eat each other.

294
00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:34,880
Speaker 1: I do wonder because every generation does feel like their

295
00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:40,120
Speaker 1: specific time in history is more intense and more specific

296
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:44,080
Speaker 1: and more challenging than anyone else's do just did the

297
00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:48,560
Speaker 1: emotional feelings we're having right now about the world, Are

298
00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:52,320
Speaker 1: they more than or are they equivalent to someone at

299
00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:54,640
Speaker 1: the turn of the century, just being like, now they

300
00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:58,480
Speaker 1: have horses that you don't feed and women are wearing pants,

301
00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:02,760
Speaker 1: like and they're world was broken by those two facts.

302
00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:08,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, I bet it's I bet it's equal. Only now

303
00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:12,240
Speaker 2: we're just force fed so much information, yes, that you

304
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:15,280
Speaker 2: can't even we can't even think of women wearing pants like.

305
00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:17,160
Speaker 2: I wish I had a week to think about that,

306
00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:20,400
Speaker 2: But I don't you get about eight seconds to consider something,

307
00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:23,640
Speaker 2: and then you're bombarded with a fire hose of more

308
00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:25,560
Speaker 2: information and more things to worry about.

309
00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:31,440
Speaker 1: Oh man, well, speaking of something that's not gonna make

310
00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:34,480
Speaker 1: us worry, why don't you give us another sweet news

311
00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:36,760
Speaker 1: item from the Bananas Podcast.

312
00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:39,480
Speaker 2: Actually this kind of ties into what we're doing. Great segue.

313
00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:43,280
Speaker 2: Ben Wyatt sent this in Bananimal Ben Wyatt, Thanks Ben.

314
00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:47,480
Speaker 2: Woman who thought the rapture was about to happen dishes

315
00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:50,760
Speaker 2: out huge tips for tacos, then returns for a refund.

316
00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:55,440
Speaker 2: Nice you can you know exactly you know this story

317
00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:57,960
Speaker 2: as soon as I'm saying it. This was on Board Panda,

318
00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:02,880
Speaker 2: but other sites I double checked. Written by Dominikus Zukus

319
00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:10,399
Speaker 2: sounds like a Greek best in the bizziz Nis. Really

320
00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:15,399
Speaker 2: good typer that Dominique Zukus a woman who left over

321
00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:18,680
Speaker 2: one thousand dollars and tips out of Florida taco restaurant

322
00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:20,600
Speaker 2: because she thought she was going to be swept up

323
00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:24,920
Speaker 2: in a biblical rapture on the day of the eclipse.

324
00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:30,920
Speaker 2: Once now a rapture refund claiming the restaurant defrauded her. No,

325
00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:32,000
Speaker 2: they did not.

326
00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:33,240
Speaker 1: They did not.

327
00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:37,400
Speaker 2: Look to the pulpit. A server at the restaurant set

328
00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:40,040
Speaker 2: on rebbit a reddit excuse me, not rabbit, but we

329
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:42,240
Speaker 2: should get that. We should have rabbit dot com.

330
00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:44,800
Speaker 4: I mean, why who's r e b b I t

331
00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:50,680
Speaker 4: dot com. If we don't get rebbit t r e

332
00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:52,440
Speaker 4: b b I t revit.

333
00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:53,920
Speaker 1: I bet you Rebbit's gone.

334
00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:57,600
Speaker 2: We're about to mess with AI for years. They found

335
00:17:57,640 --> 00:17:58,240
Speaker 2: this on rebbit.

336
00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:00,760
Speaker 1: It's a it's it's a it's it's a one cent

337
00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:01,800
Speaker 1: stock scam.

338
00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:05,320
Speaker 2: Oh okay, well that make that's good. That's for idiots again,

339
00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:09,320
Speaker 2: we're business outsiders. On this podcast, a woman on Reddit

340
00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:15,199
Speaker 2: said she was nice but kept trying to preach to me.

341
00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:20,240
Speaker 2: Her bill came to forty dollars for zero, to which

342
00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:22,919
Speaker 2: she added a three hundred dollars tip and wrote on

343
00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:26,040
Speaker 2: the receipt in case you don't rise on the eighth.

344
00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:28,879
Speaker 2: The woman returned a few days later and tipped the

345
00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:34,640
Speaker 2: server and another an additional seven hundred and seventy seven dollars.

346
00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:38,320
Speaker 1: This is another, this is, this is, this is two

347
00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:40,840
Speaker 1: different days she came back.

348
00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:44,119
Speaker 2: She confidently was like, I liked that taco waitress that

349
00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:47,040
Speaker 2: I was preaching to, and I also don't think she's

350
00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:48,840
Speaker 2: going to have it, which is the other thing too.

351
00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:52,840
Speaker 1: Also it's emitting. You're a failure, like you didn't save her,

352
00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:57,000
Speaker 1: right like, because that is what the evangelicals like, their responsibility.

353
00:18:57,040 --> 00:19:00,400
Speaker 1: They feel a deep responsibility to every person they meet

354
00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:04,679
Speaker 1: who is like, exactly believes the five words that they believe.

355
00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:05,640
Speaker 2: That's right.

356
00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:08,280
Speaker 1: So that she failed, that's really a funny thing. It's

357
00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:12,120
Speaker 1: like a thousand dollars of admission of failure. And it's twice.

358
00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:15,520
Speaker 1: It's once when she couldn't get them saved and it's

359
00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:17,879
Speaker 1: twice when the rapture doesn't happen.

360
00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:21,800
Speaker 2: When the rapture didn't happen, the woman returned to clawback

361
00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:25,000
Speaker 2: her tip, accusing the restaurant had changed the tip amount.

362
00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:28,520
Speaker 2: Fast forward to today and she's back again, adamant that

363
00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:32,520
Speaker 2: her tips were somehow fraudulent and we're tampered with. Her

364
00:19:32,560 --> 00:19:36,359
Speaker 2: claims of fraud are literally impossible. We bring the card

365
00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:39,879
Speaker 2: to the reader table, said the waitress, And it's the

366
00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:42,879
Speaker 2: guest who decides the tip amount. You know, they have

367
00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:45,880
Speaker 2: the handle things now, Yeah, the tip amount by either

368
00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:49,000
Speaker 2: pressing a preset option or entering a custom one before

369
00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:51,880
Speaker 2: hitting pay. And that's exactly what she did, so it's

370
00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:56,600
Speaker 2: physically impossible for us to manipulate the tip amounts. Yeah,

371
00:19:56,760 --> 00:19:59,639
Speaker 2: the server continues. Both my cowork and I have already

372
00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:02,840
Speaker 2: received our tips within our paychecks, and we obviously have

373
00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:05,479
Speaker 2: to pay income tax on them. Returning the money at

374
00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:08,200
Speaker 2: this point to her is literally impossible since we don't

375
00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:12,040
Speaker 2: actually have all of that money. So yeah, they did.

376
00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:14,040
Speaker 2: There's nothing they can do. I think the woman just

377
00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:15,760
Speaker 2: fussed them a storm, But I mean, also she just

378
00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:19,040
Speaker 2: got to be totally but hurt that she didn't rise

379
00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:20,840
Speaker 2: to heaven that the rapture didn't happen.

380
00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:26,639
Speaker 1: Man, the confidence that is American confidence.

381
00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:28,840
Speaker 2: Right, Yes it is. They got it, flew it.

382
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:34,199
Speaker 1: You might, you might disagree, but you gotta admire the

383
00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:37,400
Speaker 1: hood spot. It's a lot of it's a lot of moxy.

384
00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:40,760
Speaker 2: And the tipping. I'm a huge fan of overtipping. Ban

385
00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:44,760
Speaker 2: animals are famously huge tippers. All the servers and bartenders

386
00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:47,960
Speaker 2: at our live shows say so, there's something great if

387
00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:51,000
Speaker 2: you're if you're having a flush run. If old uncle

388
00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:54,840
Speaker 2: Sven died and and you inherited a million bucks, start tipping,

389
00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:58,520
Speaker 2: start tipping big. I love the big tip part.

390
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:01,480
Speaker 1: I love the big tip. Also, that's nice. That's nice

391
00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:04,040
Speaker 1: that she didn't leave a thousand dollars in her bank

392
00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:06,639
Speaker 1: account for her like pile of clothes to use, you know,

393
00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:10,240
Speaker 1: after she goes. I had this idea for a short

394
00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:12,760
Speaker 1: film for a while. I think I still might do it.

395
00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:16,920
Speaker 1: But it's it's like a couple. It's like, it's easy

396
00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:19,919
Speaker 1: to shoot short film. It's a couple, married couple who

397
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:22,600
Speaker 1: are like having a like a minor kind of disagreement

398
00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:25,000
Speaker 1: that grows into something bigger. But the world that they

399
00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:28,840
Speaker 1: exist in is a world in which the rapture actually

400
00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:33,520
Speaker 1: already happened. So everyone who is an evangelical Christian was

401
00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:37,040
Speaker 1: literally taken off the face of the earth bodily. And

402
00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:40,879
Speaker 1: then the earth just like the planet just becomes like

403
00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:44,320
Speaker 1: a very nice place to live because he removed all

404
00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:47,320
Speaker 1: of the hardcore right wing stuff from it, and so

405
00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:49,680
Speaker 1: people are kind of like living in harmony. There's like

406
00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:54,680
Speaker 1: a socialist government. It's like very enjoyable, but everyone has

407
00:21:54,760 --> 00:21:59,080
Speaker 1: to live with the fact that they were right, yeah,

408
00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:02,520
Speaker 1: it's a heaven and they are all going to hell,

409
00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:04,840
Speaker 1: and that there is a hell and they're all going

410
00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:07,280
Speaker 1: to hell. So like they have now like this beautiful

411
00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:09,919
Speaker 1: place to live that's really kind of like free of

412
00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:14,520
Speaker 1: it's great hypocrisy and right, and then they're like it's

413
00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:16,680
Speaker 1: this small tif that grows because of that.

414
00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:19,040
Speaker 2: In the seventies, they would have definitely made that movie

415
00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:21,199
Speaker 2: and it would have been great. In the eighties, they

416
00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:22,879
Speaker 2: would have made it and it would have been okay,

417
00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:24,320
Speaker 2: it would have been kind of funny. And then they

418
00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:26,680
Speaker 2: would have tried to make that like The Fairly Brothers

419
00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:29,439
Speaker 2: up until like nineteen ninety seven, and now they just

420
00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:31,959
Speaker 2: would never make that movie. But it's like, such a

421
00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:34,920
Speaker 2: great idea for a movie, but.

422
00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:37,280
Speaker 1: It's a short film. You know, you control the means

423
00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:37,760
Speaker 1: of production.

424
00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:39,879
Speaker 2: You can, that's right, I think you should do it.

425
00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:43,240
Speaker 2: I had this story reminded me. I had a previous

426
00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:46,159
Speaker 2: landlord who when I moved in, was like, hey, do

427
00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:48,840
Speaker 2: you have a coffee table? And I was like, no,

428
00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:51,879
Speaker 2: I don't. And he goes, oh, wait here, and he

429
00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:53,840
Speaker 2: goes over to his place and lugs back.

430
00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:57,919
Speaker 1: This is this right prospect yeah.

431
00:22:57,280 --> 00:23:02,880
Speaker 2: And lugs this giant one over and he's like, oh,

432
00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:07,240
Speaker 2: I got into woodworking and I think about doing high

433
00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:11,560
Speaker 2: end furniture and this was my first coffee table. And

434
00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:13,480
Speaker 2: I was like cool. He goes it took me two

435
00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:15,199
Speaker 2: weeks though. He's like, it's a lot of work to

436
00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:16,920
Speaker 2: build this table, and it was kind of cool looking.

437
00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:19,639
Speaker 2: It was really heavy though, So I had it for

438
00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:24,040
Speaker 2: eight years as my coffee table. That person had come

439
00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:27,199
Speaker 2: over a couple times and hung out and socialized, and

440
00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:33,080
Speaker 2: then around twenty twenty sold the places and kind of

441
00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:37,840
Speaker 2: lost their marbles as many people did, and moved to Tennessee.

442
00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:40,399
Speaker 2: And then I moved last year. So I moved in

443
00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:45,199
Speaker 2: twenty twenty three and in twenty twenty three, he calls

444
00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:47,679
Speaker 2: me and he goes, hey, I'm moving back to California.

445
00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:49,640
Speaker 2: Can I come pick up that table? No?

446
00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:51,959
Speaker 1: He does not, Yes, he does no, And I go

447
00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:54,040
Speaker 1: after after eleven years.

448
00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:59,280
Speaker 2: After eleven years, including three of not talking, including eleven

449
00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:03,000
Speaker 2: of never ment the table ever, and I told him

450
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:05,480
Speaker 2: the truth. I said, I sold that thing because I moved.

451
00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:07,240
Speaker 2: I was like, I don't live there anymore. He goes what.

452
00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:10,159
Speaker 2: I go, dude, I never thought I was going to

453
00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:12,199
Speaker 2: speak to you ever again. I just told him on

454
00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:14,360
Speaker 2: the phone. I texted him first it was a tex exchange.

455
00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:16,760
Speaker 2: I said I sold it, and he goes how much?

456
00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:19,760
Speaker 2: And I lied to him. This was my big mistake,

457
00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:22,040
Speaker 2: as I said, five hundred bucks, because it was like

458
00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:23,160
Speaker 2: very nice.

459
00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:24,840
Speaker 1: Yeah.

460
00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:27,919
Speaker 2: And instantly my phone rings and I'm like, oh shit,

461
00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:31,280
Speaker 2: I really never thought I would ever see here, talk

462
00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:33,399
Speaker 2: to anything with this person ever again. And I was

463
00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:35,000
Speaker 2: overjoyed at that prospect.

464
00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:37,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, of course this guy was not.

465
00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:41,560
Speaker 2: And he goes ta, and I go, yeah, man, you

466
00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:44,640
Speaker 2: never mentioned it ever. I'm not even there anymore. I wasn't.

467
00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:47,280
Speaker 2: It was heavy. I wasn't going to store it. He goes, dude,

468
00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:52,000
Speaker 2: that thing was worth like a thousand dollars, and as

469
00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:54,160
Speaker 2: he was saying it, and then I said, dude, if

470
00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:55,960
Speaker 2: you want the money, i'll send you the money. But

471
00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:58,600
Speaker 2: I had lied. I sold it for two hundred dollars

472
00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:00,680
Speaker 2: on offer up, and I told him five hundred dollars

473
00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:02,639
Speaker 2: because I was trying to be nice to him. I

474
00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:05,920
Speaker 2: was trying to say, hey, I appreciate your craftsmanship.

475
00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:09,240
Speaker 1: That's so weird because it could go either way, because

476
00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:11,880
Speaker 1: then also you made five hundred dollars, where it's like, no, dude,

477
00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:15,240
Speaker 1: I actually sold it for two hundred. I can't, okay, yes.

478
00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:19,000
Speaker 2: So he goes it's worth one thousand dollars and I go,

479
00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:21,520
Speaker 2: I didn't know. Man, listen, if you want me to

480
00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:24,800

00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:32,480
Speaker 2: so long. I was like, no problem, and then he

506
00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:34,400
Speaker 2: just hung up the phone. But it was like I

507
00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:38,080
Speaker 2: had to confront him. Yes, but for I would say

508
00:26:38,320 --> 00:26:40,760
Speaker 2: five full seconds. I was like, well, I'm about to

509
00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:43,480
Speaker 2: send this guy three hundred dollars because I just lied.

510
00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:45,679
Speaker 2: All I had to do was go two hundred bucks.

511
00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:48,440
Speaker 2: But I didn't want to, like I didn't want to

512
00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:54,919
Speaker 2: what undervalue his craft, and so I lied generously. And

513
00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:58,199
Speaker 2: then when you lie these things happened. It almost blew up.

514
00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:01,040
Speaker 2: But yeah, he just suddenly had like his whole life

515
00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:02,639
Speaker 2: flash before his eyes, and he was like, yeah, two

516
00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:03,080

519
00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:11,439

Speaker 2: neighbor and I was like, hey, this has just happened,

521

621
00:32:34,360 --> 00:32:40,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's all podcasting. But I also forgot how many

622
00:32:40,360 --> 00:32:43,800
Speaker 1: people listen to the podcast. So one percent of a

623
00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:47,080
Speaker 1: large number is still a very large number. To all

624
00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:50,080
Speaker 1: of a sudden, have dms from in your in your

625
00:32:50,120 --> 00:32:51,880
Speaker 1: little Instagram box.

626
00:32:51,840 --> 00:32:56,880
Speaker 2: On our bananas email alone, and our dms at least

627
00:32:56,880 --> 00:33:00,280
Speaker 2: five hundred. I'm on your personal.

628
00:32:59,880 --> 00:33:05,240
Speaker 1: One at least five hundred. It's been a lot, it's

629
00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:08,000
Speaker 1: been a lot. But I just want to say thumbs

630
00:33:08,080 --> 00:33:13,560

635
00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:38,800
Speaker 1: probably other people who believe that they were first. And

636
00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:42,720
Speaker 1: my apologies. Instagram kept showing me the way it works.

637
00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:45,760
Speaker 1: It's screwy. It's screwy. And so you think you found

638
00:33:45,800 --> 00:33:48,120
Speaker 1: the earliest one, and then you scroll again and then

639
00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:49,680
Speaker 1: new ones start popping.

640
00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:53,200
Speaker 2: Yeah. I know it's tough, it's very tough, but we

641
00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:55,000
Speaker 2: sent a bunch. We sent a bunch.

642
00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:58,160
Speaker 1: Mikayla. I want to give a thumbs up to I

643
00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:00,480
Speaker 1: want to give a thumbs up to Tour. I want

00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:03,600
Speaker 1: to give a thumbs up to Carmelina nice and uh,

645
00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:07,000
Speaker 1: and they all got three of them got posters and

646
00:34:07,040 --> 00:34:09,520
Speaker 1: two of them got photographs.

647
00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:10,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, we ran out of those posts.

648
00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:12,839
Speaker 1: We ran out of posters, and I'm so sorry if

649
00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:13,680
Speaker 1: you didn't get a poster.

650
00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:17,000
Speaker 2: But to the thousand plus bin animals who listen to

651
00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:19,520
Speaker 2: the very end of every episode, we were shocked.

652
00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:21,600
Speaker 1: Yes, it's so awesome.

653
00:34:21,719 --> 00:34:23,720
Speaker 2: We're gonna have to do a better job moving forward

654
00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:26,839
Speaker 2: in the back half of each episode. If you could

655
00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:31,600
Speaker 2: go back to college as a freshman bachelor's degree, what

656
00:34:31,760 --> 00:34:34,319
Speaker 2: would you study now with the knowledge you have as

657
00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:38,280
Speaker 2: a grown man who's lived a very vibrant and vivacious life.

658
00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:41,799
Speaker 1: I would change I wouldn't change same. I would still

659
00:34:41,840 --> 00:34:45,360
Speaker 1: do philosophy in English. Yeah, one hundred percent. I loved

660
00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:49,200
Speaker 1: I love that stuff. I loved learning about that stuff.

661
00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:54,040
Speaker 1: It's it's it's like a true delight. If anything, if anything,

662
00:34:54,239 --> 00:34:57,160
Speaker 1: then this might be surprising for a person who has

663
00:34:57,239 --> 00:35:01,919
Speaker 1: no formal religion. I would add religion studies somewhere in there,

664
00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:04,560
Speaker 1: because the one thing that I didn't like about philosophy

665
00:35:04,640 --> 00:35:06,920
Speaker 1: is that, because I came from a Catholic school background,

666
00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:11,279
Speaker 1: I wanted philosophy to tell me how to live the

667
00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:16,120
Speaker 1: best life. And very little philosophy is concerned with how

668
00:35:16,160 --> 00:35:19,400
Speaker 1: to live a good life. It's at a certain point.

669
00:35:19,440 --> 00:35:24,120
Speaker 1: It's mostly concerned with talking about abstract concepts of being

670
00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:27,200
Speaker 1: and becoming and stuff like that, but it doesn't say, like,

671
00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:29,720
Speaker 1: this is the way you live. And like only the Greeks,

672
00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:31,560
Speaker 1: the ancient Greeks were the ones who were like obsessed

673
00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:33,000
Speaker 1: with how do you live a good life? And that's

674
00:35:33,040 --> 00:35:35,319
Speaker 1: why I kind of, you know, they're so fun to

675
00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:38,040
Speaker 1: study for that reason. But I would put religion in

676
00:35:38,120 --> 00:35:40,960
Speaker 1: because I think they're always obsessed with, like, how do

677
00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:42,040
Speaker 1: you live a good life?

678
00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:45,960
Speaker 2: Apparently I've seen some Greek sculptures and busts in my life,

679
00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:47,840
Speaker 2: and apparently you just have to have a really curly beard,

680
00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:53,560
Speaker 2: just a really oily, like a beautiful, well maintained curly beard.

681
00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:56,120
Speaker 1: And not too and not too well endowed.

682
00:35:55,920 --> 00:35:58,319
Speaker 2: No, and a very small penis, and that if you

683
00:35:58,360 --> 00:36:02,120
Speaker 2: can combine curly, great beer, very small penis, you're good

684
00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:03,360
Speaker 2: to happiness for the dudes.

685
00:36:03,440 --> 00:36:07,640
Speaker 1: For the dude's side, fantastic. We will speak to the lady.

686
00:36:07,719 --> 00:36:10,600
Speaker 2: You know, philosophy is interesting because I took intro I

687
00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:15,600
Speaker 2: but I think, you know, this is gonna sound very dumb,

688
00:36:15,640 --> 00:36:20,040
Speaker 2: but I think I would do like archaeology interesting. I

689
00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:22,279
Speaker 2: think I still would have hoped to have turned out

690
00:36:22,320 --> 00:36:24,200
Speaker 2: to be a writer. But I didn't study writing, so

691
00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:28,160
Speaker 2: I'm self taught writer. But I studied a ton of history,

692
00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:32,880
Speaker 2: and I took intro to everything, forestry, oceanography, philosophy, logic,

693
00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:36,200
Speaker 2: everything you can take. I just took an intro to. Yeah,

694
00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:38,920
Speaker 2: maybe a language, maybe I should have focused on. I

695
00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:41,359
Speaker 2: only took Spanish for two semesters. It might have been

696
00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:43,239
Speaker 2: cool to be a Spanish major. I would like to

697
00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:45,680
Speaker 2: walk through southern California and be able to communicate with

698
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:50,719
Speaker 2: almost everybody. Yeah, but I think archaeology. I took intro

699
00:36:50,760 --> 00:36:53,200
Speaker 2: to archaeology and loved it, and I think there's enough.

700
00:36:53,600 --> 00:36:55,520
Speaker 2: Even with what we do with bananas, there's so much

701
00:36:55,560 --> 00:36:59,040
Speaker 2: of like discovery. When they find a five thousand year

702
00:36:59,040 --> 00:37:02,160
Speaker 2: old Viking sored or whatever in somebody's backyard, I'm like, yeah,

703
00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:04,600
Speaker 2: that's cool. I would like to know more about the

704
00:37:04,719 --> 00:37:07,800
Speaker 2: ancient world and the artifacts left behind.

705
00:37:08,160 --> 00:37:11,920
Speaker 1: Yeah. I can totally understand that, especially if you get

706
00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:14,320
Speaker 1: one where it's like I have an archaeology degree and

707
00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:18,480
Speaker 1: hidden underground cities found under people's front porches.

708
00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:21,320
Speaker 2: Boy, we get that a lot and also so cool.

709
00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:23,840
Speaker 2: You're just like I wish I was the guy that opened, like,

710
00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:27,280
Speaker 2: moved the chest freezer and was like, what's this little

711
00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:30,080
Speaker 2: terra cotta door do? And then it gets a world

712
00:37:30,120 --> 00:37:33,960
Speaker 2: of gold, a mystery and intrigue. All right.

713
00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:37,239
Speaker 1: So this is this article just got off of the

714
00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:40,960
Speaker 1: Old Read and Apple News. This was in Slate. It

715
00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:44,480
Speaker 1: was written by Dan Coy's He's the best.

716
00:37:44,160 --> 00:37:46,200
Speaker 2: In the biz, so good at what he does.

717
00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:50,719
Speaker 1: It says it's called the porn Chancellor speaks. Joe Goo

718
00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:56,200
Speaker 1: faces losing tenure because the sweet as Vanilla adult videos

719
00:37:56,239 --> 00:37:58,560
Speaker 1: he made with his wife took off. Is that fair?

720
00:37:59,239 --> 00:37:59,960
Speaker 2: Uh, It's not fair.

721
00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:06,600
Speaker 1: This is go on fascinating. So okay, no, so okay.

722
00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:09,799
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna read it because there's so much in here,

723
00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:11,319
Speaker 1: and I'll get to a certain party. It's a very

724
00:38:11,320 --> 00:38:13,319
Speaker 1: long article. I'm not gonna read the whole thing, but

725
00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:16,600
Speaker 1: I'll get to some real good parts. This is a

726
00:38:16,640 --> 00:38:19,400
Speaker 1: delightful story about a couple who I think is really

727
00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:23,239
Speaker 1: interesting and cool. This winter, the board of Regents at

728
00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:26,080
Speaker 1: the University of Wisconsin Lacrosse a campus of about ten

729
00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:29,960
Speaker 1: thousand students overlooking the Mississippi River in western Wisconsin. Hired

730
00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:34,120
Speaker 1: the school's longtime chancellor for an unusual reason. His porn

731
00:38:34,239 --> 00:38:38,560
Speaker 1: videos were getting very popular. Joe Gao and his wife,

732
00:38:38,640 --> 00:38:43,480
Speaker 1: academic administrator Carmen Wilson, shot the sex scenes together and

733
00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:47,760
Speaker 1: with professional adult performers, and their videos, which they published

734
00:38:47,840 --> 00:38:50,840
Speaker 1: under the name Sexy Happy Couple, were racking up the

735
00:38:50,920 --> 00:38:54,080
Speaker 1: views on porn hub. I took a look for research.

736
00:38:54,520 --> 00:38:57,680
Speaker 1: The videos are charming in their way. It's unusual and

737
00:38:57,800 --> 00:38:59,960
Speaker 1: interesting to see a couple in their fifties and six

738
00:39:00,239 --> 00:39:03,360
Speaker 1: he's clearly in love going at it with the Avid

739
00:39:03,719 --> 00:39:08,399
Speaker 1: avidity never heard that word of porn stars at the university, though.

740
00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:11,520
Speaker 1: The only the only the regent's ire was aroused and

741
00:39:11,560 --> 00:39:14,400
Speaker 1: Gal is now fighting to keep his job as tenured professor.

742
00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:17,439
Speaker 1: Hearing is scheduled for June. Interesting, and then he has

743
00:39:17,480 --> 00:39:20,759
Speaker 1: this interview with them, and he asked a few like

744
00:39:20,840 --> 00:39:24,200
Speaker 1: kind of like beginner questions, like so, when you and

745
00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:26,360
Speaker 1: Carmen first got married about ten years ago, you started

746
00:39:26,360 --> 00:39:29,080
Speaker 1: making videos with just the two of you, And he says, yeah,

747
00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:31,160
Speaker 1: real homemade. We went to Best Buy and bought a

748
00:39:31,239 --> 00:39:35,000
Speaker 1: Sony camporter and just experimented with that. And then they say,

749
00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:38,520
Speaker 1: what led you to making videos with porn performers? Before

750
00:39:38,560 --> 00:39:40,839
Speaker 1: we were married? We were married to other people at

751
00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:43,320
Speaker 1: that point in your life. I was in my mid fifties,

752
00:39:43,400 --> 00:39:46,080
Speaker 1: Carmen was in her late forties. You sort of say, well,

753
00:39:46,320 --> 00:39:48,400
Speaker 1: if I'm going to get into a new relationship, I

754
00:39:48,400 --> 00:39:50,279
Speaker 1: think we need to get a lot of things out

755
00:39:50,320 --> 00:39:53,480
Speaker 1: in the open. I talked about how sexually unfulfilled I

756
00:39:53,600 --> 00:39:56,720
Speaker 1: was in my previous marriage, and she said the same thing. Great,

757
00:39:56,840 --> 00:40:00,400
Speaker 1: well what would be what would it look like to expect?

758
00:40:00,440 --> 00:40:03,239
Speaker 1: And one of the things was polyamory. Now that's really

759
00:40:03,320 --> 00:40:06,960
Speaker 1: quite common topic, but back then the guy says, it's

760
00:40:07,040 --> 00:40:10,239
Speaker 1: very buzzy. Now, yeah, we simultaneously experiment with that and

761
00:40:10,320 --> 00:40:13,120
Speaker 1: with video making, and we found that we really enjoyed

762
00:40:13,120 --> 00:40:17,400
Speaker 1: the videos. But polyamory was very tricky. It's just emotional.

763
00:40:17,560 --> 00:40:22,359
Speaker 1: It's emotionally tough for everybody. Emotionally, it was not for us.

764
00:40:22,719 --> 00:40:24,200
Speaker 1: So they go to like all these things and then

765
00:40:24,239 --> 00:40:26,520
Speaker 1: they figure out that, oh, it's like professionals. If they

766
00:40:26,840 --> 00:40:29,800
Speaker 1: involve a professional, then then it works and it's better.

767
00:40:29,840 --> 00:40:32,279
Speaker 1: So they they're meeting all these different people. Then they

768
00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:34,840
Speaker 1: meet a male stripper and he says like, oh, you

769
00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:38,040
Speaker 1: can go to this conference. It's called Exotica. It's the

770
00:40:38,080 --> 00:40:41,399
Speaker 1: Comic Con of adult Entertainment. They go there, they meet

771
00:40:41,440 --> 00:40:44,600
Speaker 1: some people who can start doing like production work for them.

772
00:40:44,640 --> 00:40:47,719
Speaker 1: So then they start shooting videos with a professional crew.

773
00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:55,680
Speaker 1: Fantastic and porn performers fantastic. Yeah. So so the birds like, yeah,

774
00:40:55,680 --> 00:40:58,520
Speaker 1: everything gets more and more professional they're doing. You know,

775
00:40:58,680 --> 00:41:02,000
Speaker 1: there's regulations. Yeah, to meet you get tested and present

776
00:41:02,040 --> 00:41:04,160
Speaker 1: those tests. You have to show your ID. You know,

777
00:41:04,200 --> 00:41:08,520
Speaker 1: everything's like safe and whatever. And he said, and then

778
00:41:08,520 --> 00:41:11,040
Speaker 1: the guy says it must be at least a little flattering,

779
00:41:11,440 --> 00:41:13,680
Speaker 1: like getting carted at the grocery store to having your idea,

780
00:41:13,680 --> 00:41:15,840
Speaker 1: And he goes, that's right, and then I'll take credit

781
00:41:15,880 --> 00:41:18,880
Speaker 1: for this idea. My wife. This is where it gets.

782
00:41:18,960 --> 00:41:21,600
Speaker 1: I love these people. Yes, my wife is a great

783
00:41:21,719 --> 00:41:25,080
Speaker 1: vegan cook. We're both been vegans for a long time.

784
00:41:25,440 --> 00:41:28,439
Speaker 1: I was at a Planet Fitness on the elliptical looking

785
00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:30,839
Speaker 1: up at the monitors without the sound, and I saw

786
00:41:30,840 --> 00:41:34,720
Speaker 1: a cooking show. Could we do something as a couple

787
00:41:35,120 --> 00:41:39,720
Speaker 1: interviewing people and having the cookie in there? And the sexuality.

788
00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:42,120
Speaker 1: So we came up with this concept for a show

789
00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:46,319
Speaker 1: called Sexy Healthy Cooking, and we've shot maybe eight of

790
00:41:46,360 --> 00:41:48,920
Speaker 1: those where we interview a guest who is a performer

791
00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:52,480
Speaker 1: from the adult industry. We talk about food and then

792
00:41:52,480 --> 00:41:53,239
Speaker 1: we also have.

793
00:41:53,320 --> 00:41:58,120
Speaker 2: Sex with them. But that's sort of what dating is, right,

794
00:41:58,160 --> 00:42:00,560
Speaker 2: You kind of get together over good food, you talk

795
00:42:00,600 --> 00:42:02,760
Speaker 2: about it, then you have sex with them. It's nice.

796
00:42:03,120 --> 00:42:06,279
Speaker 1: I love it. It's so good, so much. They were

797
00:42:06,360 --> 00:42:11,359
Speaker 1: just making a vegan cooking show and boning and then

798
00:42:11,440 --> 00:42:13,040
Speaker 1: just putting on born.

799
00:42:13,120 --> 00:42:15,280
Speaker 2: Now that might be the problem.

800
00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:19,160
Speaker 1: This sounds like the most delightfully wholesome way to make

801
00:42:19,200 --> 00:42:24,279
Speaker 1: pornography ever heard of in my life. Let that, Let

802
00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:27,960
Speaker 1: that couple have all the jobs and let him continue

803
00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:29,240
Speaker 1: to be a tenured professor.

804
00:42:29,400 --> 00:42:33,320
Speaker 2: Mike got to be a progressive school out the Hampshire College.

805
00:42:33,440 --> 00:42:34,960
Speaker 2: This is your moment to shine.

806
00:42:35,080 --> 00:42:38,040
Speaker 1: You kidding me? He'll teach a class on how to

807
00:42:38,160 --> 00:42:42,640
Speaker 1: do a boning cooking show. You could major in fuckable

808
00:42:42,680 --> 00:42:44,960
Speaker 1: cooking at there.

809
00:42:45,480 --> 00:42:47,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know the film I did there. The guys

810
00:42:47,920 --> 00:42:49,880
Speaker 2: they you know, they don't have degrees, they have whatever,

811
00:42:49,920 --> 00:42:52,319
Speaker 2: and you have to take three levels of whatever. And

812
00:42:52,360 --> 00:42:54,640
Speaker 2: he just made up his thing and it was the

813
00:42:54,680 --> 00:42:58,360
Speaker 2: making of an avant garde film. And that's what I

814
00:42:58,400 --> 00:42:59,920
Speaker 2: acted in a film that was supposed to not be

815
00:43:00,040 --> 00:43:02,759
Speaker 2: avant garde. It was so bad he added music and

816
00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:05,000
Speaker 2: weird editing and turned it into an avant garde film

817
00:43:05,040 --> 00:43:08,960
Speaker 2: and ended up delivering DP DO to me a year later.

818
00:43:09,080 --> 00:43:12,960
Speaker 2: So cal Zone plays, all right, it's funny there we have.

819
00:43:13,200 --> 00:43:18,400
Speaker 2: We have quite a few uh porn actor actress bananimals,

820
00:43:19,160 --> 00:43:22,600
Speaker 2: and one of them is really funny. And I just

821
00:43:23,000 --> 00:43:26,799
Speaker 2: texted them because the testing center for Los Angeles is

822
00:43:26,840 --> 00:43:29,880
Speaker 2: in a strip mall and I believe it's next to

823
00:43:29,880 --> 00:43:36,680
Speaker 2: a chuck e cheese. I'm confirming. I am confirming, and

824
00:43:36,719 --> 00:43:39,279
Speaker 2: I will get the answer and report back. But she

825
00:43:39,440 --> 00:43:42,920
Speaker 2: once sent a photo and was like, this is hilarious.

826
00:43:42,920 --> 00:43:44,640
Speaker 2: This is where I have to go all the time,

827
00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:47,120
Speaker 2: and it's directly next to and I believe it's a

828
00:43:47,200 --> 00:43:47,759
Speaker 2: chuck e cheese.

829
00:43:48,400 --> 00:43:49,120
Speaker 1: Oh my god.

830
00:43:49,400 --> 00:43:53,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's so. I guess the complaint is if you

831
00:43:53,640 --> 00:43:58,600
Speaker 2: So they work in academia, so as teachers, and she's

832
00:43:58,880 --> 00:44:01,759
Speaker 2: she's into administration or admissions.

833
00:44:01,840 --> 00:44:04,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, she's in an administration and he is the chancellor

834
00:44:05,040 --> 00:44:06,000
Speaker 1: and a professor.

835
00:44:06,280 --> 00:44:09,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's tough if they hadn't released it all.

836
00:44:09,640 --> 00:44:11,919
Speaker 1: Right, if they make a public I feel like it's

837
00:44:11,960 --> 00:44:14,480
Speaker 1: just like, don't like make all those brit videos pup

838
00:44:14,520 --> 00:44:17,080
Speaker 1: a private. Don't make them public and you can keep

839
00:44:17,120 --> 00:44:20,200
Speaker 1: your job. I feel like that's a reasonable request.

840
00:44:21,120 --> 00:44:25,880
Speaker 2: Thrill is the feedback or something. I don't know, but

841
00:44:25,960 --> 00:44:29,719
Speaker 2: it's a great idea and it that good for them. Yeah,

842
00:44:29,719 --> 00:44:32,799
Speaker 2: they are adults. If it costs them their job, there's

843
00:44:32,840 --> 00:44:34,920
Speaker 2: a cool university somewhere that'll hire these people.

844
00:44:35,800 --> 00:44:39,399
Speaker 1: I remember. So in two thousand, I don't know one

845
00:44:39,480 --> 00:44:42,480
Speaker 1: or two thousand and two, an improv group I was

846
00:44:42,520 --> 00:44:46,080
Speaker 1: in called Neutrino invented this form called the Neutrino Video

847
00:44:46,160 --> 00:44:53,080
Speaker 1: Projects because where eight improvisers and three camera crews would

848
00:44:53,160 --> 00:44:58,040
Speaker 1: essentially shoot, score, and edit a movie while you watched it.

849
00:44:58,960 --> 00:45:01,520
Speaker 1: So we had literally like they would shoot a scene

850
00:45:02,600 --> 00:45:05,200
Speaker 1: and then of two minute scene with no edits and

851
00:45:05,239 --> 00:45:08,160
Speaker 1: then improvised and then a runner would like they would

852
00:45:08,200 --> 00:45:10,680
Speaker 1: eject the mini DV tape and a runner would physically

853
00:45:10,760 --> 00:45:13,040
Speaker 1: run it into the theater and then in the theater

854
00:45:13,120 --> 00:45:14,680
Speaker 1: you have a full audience, and then you have a

855
00:45:14,800 --> 00:45:17,480
Speaker 1: VJ who has two separate decks and a DJ who's

856
00:45:17,520 --> 00:45:20,840
Speaker 1: like putting sound to it, and it was like this crazy,

857
00:45:21,040 --> 00:45:25,640
Speaker 1: you know, experimental but often very very funny, like form

858
00:45:25,640 --> 00:45:28,920
Speaker 1: of improv that had never existed before him and Buddy.

859
00:45:29,120 --> 00:45:34,120
Speaker 1: Steve was friends with a couple who were and this

860
00:45:34,280 --> 00:45:36,560
Speaker 1: was two thousand and one, two thousand and two, like

861
00:45:36,920 --> 00:45:39,839
Speaker 1: now everybody's on only fans, but like they they were

862
00:45:39,920 --> 00:45:42,560
Speaker 1: a couple who had like their own website. This was

863
00:45:42,600 --> 00:45:45,360
Speaker 1: back when like it was all QuickTime videos, you know,

864
00:45:45,440 --> 00:45:48,080
Speaker 1: on the Internet, and they would make they were making

865
00:45:48,160 --> 00:45:51,359
Speaker 1: like pornography together as a couple, but it was all

866
00:45:51,400 --> 00:45:53,879
Speaker 1: like Star Wars based pornography, Like this was a very

867
00:45:54,000 --> 00:45:58,080
Speaker 1: fantastic I It's very specific, like she was like Princess

868
00:45:58,120 --> 00:46:01,120
Speaker 1: Leah and they would act out scenes and then yeah,

869
00:46:02,840 --> 00:46:06,279
Speaker 1: so they really loved NUTRIENTI video projects and they were like,

870
00:46:06,800 --> 00:46:11,920
Speaker 1: we would be willing to be in in one of them,

871
00:46:12,040 --> 00:46:14,480
Speaker 1: and we're like okay, so we're like, you know, we

872
00:46:14,520 --> 00:46:17,719
Speaker 1: couldn't plan anything, but we knew, like we'll be in

873
00:46:17,760 --> 00:46:20,239
Speaker 1: your apartment for one of these scenes, and it would

874
00:46:20,280 --> 00:46:22,560
Speaker 1: be Steve because Steve knows them and they're comfortable with

875
00:46:22,640 --> 00:46:26,600
Speaker 1: him being around. Yes, and so I don't remember the

876
00:46:26,640 --> 00:46:28,919
Speaker 1: specifics of the scene, but I do, but they were

877
00:46:29,000 --> 00:46:31,640
Speaker 1: having sex in it cool, and it was like Steve

878
00:46:31,840 --> 00:46:34,879
Speaker 1: being uncomfortable about it, Like it was like the whole bit.

879
00:46:35,280 --> 00:46:37,800
Speaker 1: But then when it played, I think I was DJing

880
00:46:37,960 --> 00:46:40,359
Speaker 1: at the time. So then when it played for this

881
00:46:41,239 --> 00:46:47,560
Speaker 1: audience of improv nerds, there is nothing less funny than

882
00:46:47,920 --> 00:46:48,880
Speaker 1: sexy stuff.

883
00:46:49,560 --> 00:46:50,840
Speaker 2: It's like, it's.

884
00:46:50,719 --> 00:46:54,839
Speaker 1: Not there's no lapse, and immediately just made everybody uncomfortable

885
00:46:55,000 --> 00:46:59,160
Speaker 1: and it just made the whole show so weird. Yeah,

886
00:46:59,280 --> 00:47:02,720
Speaker 1: it wasn't like, oh my god, it was just more like, uh,

887
00:47:02,760 --> 00:47:05,400
Speaker 1: and everybody was just like, I'm uncomfortable.

888
00:47:05,560 --> 00:47:07,520
Speaker 2: Now I can understand why.

889
00:47:08,040 --> 00:47:10,080
Speaker 1: Okay, we're not gonna do that again.

890
00:47:10,280 --> 00:47:13,359
Speaker 2: Uh yeah. But you were young in experimenting with the meeting,

891
00:47:13,360 --> 00:47:15,520
Speaker 2: but I remember you do. I only saw one of

892
00:47:15,520 --> 00:47:19,879
Speaker 2: those shows ever, and it was incredible what you guys

893
00:47:19,920 --> 00:47:23,640
Speaker 2: were doing. It was mind blowing. And honestly, if somebody

894
00:47:23,680 --> 00:47:25,799
Speaker 2: came out and did that right now at one of

895
00:47:25,840 --> 00:47:27,880
Speaker 2: the theaters here, people would be talking about it, like,

896
00:47:27,920 --> 00:47:29,640
Speaker 2: can you believe they're doing that? You guys were so

897
00:47:29,880 --> 00:47:32,640
Speaker 2: ahead of your time. Yeah, twenty years out of your time,

898
00:47:33,120 --> 00:47:36,719
Speaker 2: except for maybe the porn video of you know exactly.

899
00:47:36,840 --> 00:47:40,080
Speaker 2: That's so funny though, Yeah, I guess you know what

900
00:47:40,120 --> 00:47:44,080
Speaker 2: it is. You have to let people know that they're

901
00:47:44,080 --> 00:47:44,719
Speaker 2: gonna see it.

902
00:47:45,560 --> 00:47:47,960
Speaker 4: There was no but we were all twenty there are

903
00:47:48,120 --> 00:47:49,719
Speaker 4: going to be adult I know.

904
00:47:49,800 --> 00:47:54,880
Speaker 2: We also didn't understand uh, the Internet and streaming and

905
00:47:54,880 --> 00:47:57,560
Speaker 2: all those things where you're like, you can't just bombard people.

906
00:47:57,640 --> 00:47:59,799
Speaker 2: It has to all be like guys tonight. You might

907
00:47:59,800 --> 00:48:02,240
Speaker 2: say some live sex acts and then people can decide

908
00:48:02,280 --> 00:48:04,960
Speaker 2: if they're just gonna order desert It Chili's or not,

909
00:48:05,680 --> 00:48:10,080
Speaker 2: or make it to the Wacky and Propscotch Show. Sure

910
00:48:11,200 --> 00:48:15,040
Speaker 2: this one. We're gonna take a hard stand on this one.

911
00:48:15,200 --> 00:48:18,280
Speaker 1: Okay, man, is it about? Is it about invasive?

912
00:48:18,320 --> 00:48:23,000
Speaker 2: Spezis calm? Yeah, in a way, it is actually legally invasive.

913
00:48:23,440 --> 00:48:27,880
Speaker 2: Man banned from BUCkies for life after bringing his service

914
00:48:27,960 --> 00:48:29,120
Speaker 2: duck into the store.

915
00:48:29,440 --> 00:48:34,480
Speaker 1: Oh my god, not only BUCkies, make him the spokesman

Speaker 2: Exactly my god. Anthony Talcott wrote this, And who better

Speaker 2: know what?

921

Speaker 1: I bought click Orlando too In hopes that Click Orlando

927
00:49:04,400 --> 00:49:08,360

971
00:51:39,960 --> 00:51:42,640
Speaker 2: is what we're saying. And it is the most American

972
00:51:42,719 --> 00:51:46,640
Speaker 2: thing until this story. A man was banned from all Buckies'

973
00:51:46,640 --> 00:51:49,560
Speaker 2: stores for life after bringing his service Duck into the Chains,

974
00:51:49,560 --> 00:51:54,200
Speaker 2: Tennessee store. The man named Justin Wood posted a video

00:52:35,920 --> 00:52:38,319
Speaker 2: which is very comical and I bet they enjoyed that.

986
00:52:39,400 --> 00:52:41,919
Speaker 2: In the BUCkies video, Wood is shown bringing his duck

987
00:52:42,040 --> 00:52:46,400
Speaker 2: named Wrinkle into the chain's largest location. Wrinkle, Wrinkle the

00:53:10,440 --> 00:53:15,120
Speaker 2: pure snow white long neck duck. During the video, an

997
00:53:15,120 --> 00:53:17,480
Speaker 2: employee comes over to tell Wood that pets aren't allowed

998
00:53:17,480 --> 00:53:20,720
Speaker 2: in the store. Though Wood explains Wrinkle is a service animal.

999
00:53:20,920 --> 00:53:23,799
Speaker 2: I can give you three forms of identification right now

1000
00:53:23,840 --> 00:53:25,640
Speaker 2: if you'd like, he says in the video, I mean

1001
00:53:25,640 --> 00:53:29,760
Speaker 2: he's got receipts. I just wanted to make sure. Okay,

1002
00:53:29,800 --> 00:53:32,960
Speaker 2: thank you, the employee response, would and Wrinkle then shop

1003
00:53:32,960 --> 00:53:35,240
Speaker 2: around the store a bit more. Though another employee approaches

1004
00:53:35,239 --> 00:53:37,480
Speaker 2: Wood and tells him that pets aren't allowed in the store.

1005
00:53:38,120 --> 00:53:40,120
Speaker 2: You're more than welcome to stay here, they said, the

1006
00:53:40,200 --> 00:53:44,360
Speaker 2: animal cannot there are no pets in here, the worker continued,

1007
00:53:44,400 --> 00:53:47,680
Speaker 2: Your animal, even if it's considered a service animal. You

1008
00:53:47,800 --> 00:53:49,760
Speaker 2: have to be able to contain it and it could

1009
00:53:49,800 --> 00:53:54,920
Speaker 2: fly out. What a strange like reverse psychology, Like you're

1010
00:53:54,920 --> 00:53:59,160
Speaker 2: gonna lose your doc. Bud Wood points out that Wrinkle

1011
00:53:59,360 --> 00:54:02,440
Speaker 2: was contained laid down in a stroller that he wheeled

1012
00:54:02,440 --> 00:54:03,080
Speaker 2: into the store.

1013
00:54:03,400 --> 00:54:05,959
Speaker 1: Oh he's not even this. This duck's not even walking

1014
00:54:05,960 --> 00:54:06,600
Speaker 1: around by itself.

1015
00:54:06,600 --> 00:54:10,320
Speaker 2: It's such a stroller, just comfortably sitting in. Yeah, nything

1016
00:54:10,360 --> 00:54:12,120
Speaker 2: wrong here? This is not when if this is a

1017
00:54:12,120 --> 00:54:19,839
Speaker 2: crime throwing taking his duck alone, Yes, it's it laid

1018
00:54:19,880 --> 00:54:21,400
Speaker 2: down in a stroller they brought into the store, but

1019
00:54:21,440 --> 00:54:23,960
Speaker 2: the employee insists that he would need to either take

1020
00:54:24,000 --> 00:54:27,000
Speaker 2: Wrinkle out of the store or put Wrinkle on a leash.

1021
00:54:27,120 --> 00:54:30,320
Speaker 2: The video then shows Wood putting an imaginary leash around

1022
00:54:30,320 --> 00:54:34,000
Speaker 2: Wrinkle's neck before putting the duck on the ground, and

1023
00:54:34,120 --> 00:54:38,440
Speaker 2: the ducks started following him. Okay, I'm calling the cops,

1024
00:54:38,480 --> 00:54:42,040
Speaker 2: the employee says. After purchasing a case of water bottles,

1025
00:54:42,200 --> 00:54:44,800
Speaker 2: which they have at BUCkies every kind of water bottle

1026
00:54:44,800 --> 00:54:47,560
Speaker 2: you could ever want. Wood is shown leaving the store

1027
00:54:47,640 --> 00:54:49,920
Speaker 2: as an officer pulls up in a patrol vehicle to

1028
00:54:49,920 --> 00:54:54,840
Speaker 2: speak to Wood. Wood provides Wrinkle's ID to the officer,

1029
00:54:54,880 --> 00:54:58,080
Speaker 2: who tells Wood that he's been banned from all Buckies'

1030
00:54:58,120 --> 00:55:03,360
Speaker 2: properties going forward. That seems really hard to Yeah, police

1031
00:55:03,400 --> 00:55:03,880
Speaker 2: and force.

1032
00:55:04,160 --> 00:55:06,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, they have a picture of the duck in every

1033
00:55:07,040 --> 00:55:08,359
Speaker 1: single BUCkies at them.

1034
00:55:08,400 --> 00:55:10,279
Speaker 2: It would be the highest selling thing. They had a

1035
00:55:10,400 --> 00:55:11,399
Speaker 2: mug shot of a duck.

1036
00:55:11,920 --> 00:55:12,800

1042
00:55:30,600 --> 00:55:33,160
Speaker 2: inside their stores. It's not my decision and everything, it's

1043
00:55:33,200 --> 00:55:35,640
Speaker 2: just theirs and everything, the officer said. So the episode

1044
00:55:35,680 --> 00:55:37,439
Speaker 2: loves to say everything a lot is what we're learning.

1046
00:55:39,960 --> 00:55:43,840
Speaker 2: charged with trespassing. The officer just loves saying everything.

1047
00:55:43,920 --> 00:55:46,720
Speaker 1: It really does for everything.

1048
00:55:46,800 --> 00:55:51,080
Speaker 2: And that's been everything, everything and everything back to my

1051
00:55:57,600 --> 00:56:00,560
Speaker 2: Oh oh, this is because Wrinkle I had bitten one

1052
00:56:00,600 --> 00:56:02,520
Speaker 2: of the stuffed animals inside the store. So he owed

1053
00:56:02,560 --> 00:56:05,120
Speaker 2: the store sixteen dollars and forty four cents. Would says,
