Speaker 1: Who's excited for Iceland? If you get there? You know,

8
00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:57,440
Speaker 1: the thing about Iceland is when I was there in twelve,

9
00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:03,040
Speaker 1: the Iceland people as a whole have the most immaculate

10
00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:06,200
Speaker 1: skin I've ever seen in my life because they don't

11
00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:09,640
Speaker 1: see a lot of sun. Uh. They all do mud

12
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:12,800
Speaker 1: masks and stuff like that, and they all swim. Swimming

13
00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:15,640
Speaker 1: is a huge thing with them. Gosh, we should be

14
00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:18,920
Speaker 1: more icelandic We should be. We're gonna stick out like

15
00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:24,520
Speaker 1: sore thumbs because of healthy people from New York. Well,

16
00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:25,959
Speaker 1: so what do we eat there? Is it all like

17
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:29,399
Speaker 1: whale blubber? They had? So when I was there, I whale,

18
00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:31,760
Speaker 1: which was like a I don't minky whale. I don't

19
00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:34,319
Speaker 1: even like a whale. I couldn't eat whale. I thought

20
00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:36,399
Speaker 1: this was ten years ago, Like no, but I thought

21
00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:39,000
Speaker 1: it was like mercury levels were really bad, and well,

22
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:44,400
Speaker 1: I think that might explain the stroke. So I had whale,

23
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:47,640
Speaker 1: had puffin, had puffin to puffin, did great fish? Do

24
00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:50,480
Speaker 1: you know what puffin is? You know, I guess what

25
00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:53,640
Speaker 1: puffin is. It sounds like a fish. It sounds like

26
00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:55,440
Speaker 1: a bird. It's a bird. It's like a two can, right,

27
00:01:55,720 --> 00:02:02,160
Speaker 1: it's kind of like, yeah, they're very cute, not that tasty. Um.

28
00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:05,960
Speaker 1: And then I also had horse got up. Then I

29
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:09,440
Speaker 1: all said horse, okay, So here's my question. How many

30
00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:11,480
Speaker 1: pounds am I going to lose on this thing? Because

31
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:15,440
Speaker 1: my mouth? They have good food and right in town

32
00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:17,480
Speaker 1: square that they have a buffle wagon. It's this truck

33
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:21,360
Speaker 1: that has the most awful waffles. Did you have the

34
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:26,799
Speaker 1: hot dogs there, Scott? Yes, I must have kittens. So

35
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:28,480
Speaker 1: like when I got there, people are like, oh, you

36
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:31,800
Speaker 1: gotta try these hot dogs. They're the greatest thing since whatever.

37
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:34,400
Speaker 1: And so we finally got these hot dogs and they're

38
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:36,880
Speaker 1: like the late night food there. Everybody gets these hot

39
00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:40,560
Speaker 1: dogs and they have like crispy onions, m alade and

40
00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:44,520
Speaker 1: something else. And I eat it and I'm like not

41
00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:46,760
Speaker 1: that not that great. I mean, it's just one of

42
00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:52,160
Speaker 1: these kind of meat. Was. By the way, when you

43
00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:54,440
Speaker 1: buy like merchandise there, if you buy t shirts or

44
00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:56,560
Speaker 1: anything in the stores like that, hold onto the receipt

45
00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:59,040
Speaker 1: because they give you a tax credit. You have to

46
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:00,919
Speaker 1: go to little tax off us if you take your receipts,

47
00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:03,920
Speaker 1: they'll give you money back because you get all across Europe.

48
00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:06,079
Speaker 1: You know that, right, No, I've never been to any

49
00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:09,839
Speaker 1: other place in Europe. Okay, now you know interesting fat

50
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:15,360
Speaker 1: the v a t because the fat the water there,

51
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:18,359
Speaker 1: all the water is from the ground. It's all geothermal.

52
00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:21,160
Speaker 1: So the hot water you get out of the tap

53
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:24,360
Speaker 1: is like straight out of the ground, and it and

54
00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:27,600
Speaker 1: it stinks, it smells like sulfur. So you'll take a

55
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:32,160
Speaker 1: hot shower. We're not painting a very nice finished so

56
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:34,280
Speaker 1: you'll take a shower and think there's no way I

57
00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:38,400
Speaker 1: got clean because I smell like a fart. But other

58
00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:40,760
Speaker 1: than that in eating kitten, but it's hot water straight

59
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:42,400
Speaker 1: out of the ground. And then on top of that,

60
00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:45,880
Speaker 1: we kept buying bottled water. And we're buying all this

61
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:48,520
Speaker 1: bottled water because we're Americans and that's what Americans do.

62
00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:50,920
Speaker 1: And so finally somebody sizes it, why are you buying

63
00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:53,960
Speaker 1: bottled water like well, because we're the water smells funny

64
00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:55,800
Speaker 1: coming out of the tap. They go, No, turn it

65
00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:58,000
Speaker 1: to the cold it will be the best water you've

66
00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:01,240
Speaker 1: ever had. I did. It was the best water I've

67
00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:03,920
Speaker 1: ever had in my life because it's straight out of

68
00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:07,800
Speaker 1: the ground. We started a shower of cold water because

69
00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:12,040
Speaker 1: it's a sulfur in that water. It was just, you know,

70
00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:15,320
Speaker 1: we we have into something else about it. There's gonna

71
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:18,440
Speaker 1: be something good about drink. Are we going to be

72
00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:21,160
Speaker 1: able to see the Aurora borealis on the ship at night?

73
00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:23,800
Speaker 1: You know what? That's that actor used to be in

74
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:29,080
Speaker 1: that show. Yes, Oh that's David bore Let me look,

75
00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:30,920
Speaker 1: we see that. It depends on what time of year

76
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:33,680
Speaker 1: it is. We're looking that up. Now, what's scary? No, no, no,

77
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:35,160
Speaker 1: I was going to go into this whole thing about

78
00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:38,400
Speaker 1: well water, but I don't want to go down that well. Well, well, okay,

79
00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:41,359
Speaker 1: so growing growing up in Brooklyn, I guess you know,

80
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:44,160
Speaker 1: in my my grandmother and my aunt Millie's house, which

81
00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:47,520
Speaker 1: is like they were living in there since the nineteen forties,

82
00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:50,400
Speaker 1: there was a water shortage at one point, So my

83
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:55,359
Speaker 1: great grandfather dug down deep into the ground and struck water,

84
00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:59,520
Speaker 1: so we had well water available. I mean we, I

85
00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:01,080
Speaker 1: mean by that's time. We got around to it in

86
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:05,040
Speaker 1: the eighties and nineties. No, it's just it's a different

87
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:07,080
Speaker 1: source of water, and you know, if you go down

88
00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:09,000
Speaker 1: far enough you can get the water. And he used

89
00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:12,160
Speaker 1: to water his fig tree with it. Well, it's so Italian.

90
00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:14,920
Speaker 1: The water at my house is well water. Oh yeah,

91
00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:16,920
Speaker 1: that's kind of cool. Do you guys drink tap water?

92
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:19,000
Speaker 1: I still drink tap water. I don't care. Apparently my

93
00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:20,920
Speaker 1: water district has like some of the best water in

94
00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:23,200
Speaker 1: the country, so that doesn't come well. And they say

95
00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:25,520
Speaker 1: New York City tap water is one of the highest

96
00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:28,680
Speaker 1: rated tasting waters, and I only drink tapwater. I don't care.

97
00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:31,120
Speaker 1: I drink from the hose too, So I was from

98
00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:36,000
Speaker 1: I know where. I know where my well is located,

99
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:38,720
Speaker 1: where the the the pump goes down into the well

100
00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:40,840
Speaker 1: to pump the water and drink. I always wonder if

101
00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:42,520
Speaker 1: I just peed on top of that, would it eventually

102
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:44,200
Speaker 1: get down to my water and I'm drinking my Pepe

103
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:51,400
Speaker 1: has to science grat Are there still wishing wells? I hope.

104
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:55,520
Speaker 1: So wait, where are you going out with an answer

105
00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:58,200
Speaker 1: for a Gandhi? Yeah? What the hell, Nate? So I

106
00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:03,599
Speaker 1: just closing doors. Um, so we'll have fifteen hours and

107
00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:05,919
Speaker 1: thirty nine minutes of daylight when we're there, so it

108
00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:09,840
Speaker 1: is possible to see the Aurora boreals. Oh and apparently

109
00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:12,040
Speaker 1: I guess there's some solar storm, so I guess we

110
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:15,200
Speaker 1: might see it. That's what furious George was saying the

111
00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:19,520
Speaker 1: other time. This is exciting. I'm excited. Smell farct I

112
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:22,360
Speaker 1: hear that the sun does never never sets, quite like,

113
00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:24,960
Speaker 1: it doesn't get completely dark. It only gets dim and

114
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:28,120
Speaker 1: then it comes back up again. Is that year round? Well,

115
00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:31,360
Speaker 1: half of the year it's practically dark the entire time,

116
00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 1: and the other half of the year it's almost like
