Hi guys, we're in a silly mood today. 0:01:04.360 --> 0:01:06.840 We are in a super silly mood. It's just me 0:01:06.920 --> 0:01:10.280 and tests in the Weird Garage looking at each other 0:01:10.319 --> 0:01:13.840 in the face super close. Speaking of intense close ups, 0:01:13.840 --> 0:01:16.560 We're going to talk about my new favorite Instagram accounts, 0:01:16.600 --> 0:01:20.039 celeb Face. We're also going to talk about Felicity, the 0:01:20.080 --> 0:01:23.440 TV show Felicity the shadow Man, and we're gonna solve 0:01:23.480 --> 0:01:26.800 the mystery of the ice cream truck Ghost. But first 0:01:27.120 --> 0:01:30.559 I wanted to tell everybody about little podcast. I guess 0:01:30.560 --> 0:01:33.920 it on called The Shining to thirty seven that is 0:01:33.959 --> 0:01:38.480 really awesome. It is My Friends Susan's podcast. Each episode 0:01:38.520 --> 0:01:41.480 is about the Shining in two minutes and thirty seven 0:01:41.560 --> 0:01:45.160 second segments of the Shining or analyzed. Well. The reason 0:01:45.240 --> 0:01:48.360 being for people aren't familiar with the Shining fandom is 0:01:48.400 --> 0:01:52.720 that Room to seven was the bad room. Yeah, it's 0:01:52.720 --> 0:01:55.400 the scary room, the scary room. Um. But also it's 0:01:55.400 --> 0:01:57.919 part of a trend of in podcasting that I didn't 0:01:57.920 --> 0:01:59.680 know about, which is that there are a lot of 0:01:59.680 --> 0:02:02.480 pod has that do movies where each episode takes a 0:02:02.520 --> 0:02:05.080 minute of a movie at a time. So this is 0:02:05.120 --> 0:02:08.120 also a riff on that where it's it's just the Shining, 0:02:08.160 --> 0:02:10.000 but it uses the Shining as a jumping off point 0:02:10.000 --> 0:02:12.960 to talk about kind of all sorts of things and 0:02:13.000 --> 0:02:16.079 so on. The episode that I did, which you can 0:02:16.160 --> 0:02:21.040 find at the Shining two three seven dot com, that's 0:02:21.120 --> 0:02:23.480 the Shining, the number two, the number three, the number 0:02:23.480 --> 0:02:26.800 seven dot com, we did an episode that was a 0:02:26.840 --> 0:02:30.360 lot about Shelley Duval because that was what was in 0:02:30.400 --> 0:02:34.680 the clip that I watched was a scene between uh 0:02:34.880 --> 0:02:39.040 Shelley Duval and Jack Nicholson where they are having an argument. 0:02:39.680 --> 0:02:41.280 This is one of the ones that just also just 0:02:41.320 --> 0:02:43.960 feels like listening to like someone's parents argue, where it's 0:02:44.000 --> 0:02:46.239 just very stressful. And then they cut to Danny and 0:02:46.360 --> 0:02:49.120 Danny's like, you know, bleeding out the face and like 0:02:49.639 --> 0:02:54.720 chicken and thinking about the blood Elevator, and they're playing 0:02:54.760 --> 0:02:58.600 a lot of good Wendy Carlos music and it's very intense. Um. 0:02:59.240 --> 0:03:01.480 But yeah, we also talked about Shelly Duval a lot 0:03:01.520 --> 0:03:05.359 and how much we love Shelly Duval and just all 0:03:05.400 --> 0:03:10.040 of her great work in Allman movies and on Fairytale Theater, 0:03:10.720 --> 0:03:15.239 which was a weird anthology show that she produced. Um, 0:03:15.280 --> 0:03:18.720 that was a children's TV show that totally I watched 0:03:18.760 --> 0:03:20.960 them and it went took me to the weirdest part 0:03:20.960 --> 0:03:23.800 of my brain when it was eighties and it was 0:03:23.840 --> 0:03:26.960 like everybody cool. It was in these Oh you gotta 0:03:27.000 --> 0:03:30.960 watch it. It's like these weird Fairytale adaptations. The first 0:03:30.960 --> 0:03:33.240 one is The Frog Prince and it stars like Terry 0:03:33.280 --> 0:03:39.120 gar Robin Williams, Van Dyke Parks. That's awesome. Yeah, they 0:03:39.160 --> 0:03:41.680 all seem really fun to have made, but they're also 0:03:41.720 --> 0:03:45.200 super weird. And but they were actually the first original 0:03:45.240 --> 0:03:47.920 show that was ever on HBO or one of them. 0:03:47.960 --> 0:03:51.280 They were one of the first original cable shows. Yes, 0:03:51.360 --> 0:03:54.840 I was saying, like Shelly Duval, perhaps an underrated pioneer. 0:03:54.960 --> 0:03:58.440 Definitely an underrated pioneer. Yeah, and that wasn't the Christopher 0:03:58.440 --> 0:04:01.600 walkin Puss in Boots, was it? Or I believe that 0:04:01.720 --> 0:04:03.880 is part of it. Oh, then I've seen that like 0:04:04.000 --> 0:04:07.720 four times because that is a master field, Like that's 0:04:07.520 --> 0:04:10.040 it holds up. It's better now than it ever was. 0:04:10.160 --> 0:04:12.040 That's what I was saying. I was saying, they're weird, 0:04:12.080 --> 0:04:14.720 and they don't like condescend to children. They're just like this, 0:04:15.160 --> 0:04:17.360 they really make an impression on you as a kid. 0:04:17.400 --> 0:04:19.120 And then I was watching them again and I was like, 0:04:19.279 --> 0:04:22.159 still weird, still got it, Still got that weird, the 0:04:22.240 --> 0:04:25.000 shining energy of just taking you to like the innermost 0:04:25.040 --> 0:04:28.040 corners of your mind where you're like, oh, it's some 0:04:28.080 --> 0:04:36.320 spider webs in these corners because they are weird.

Oh yeah, so a 0:05:56.240 --> 0:06:00.480 long long time ago, Um, we were discussing the bees. 0:06:04.880 --> 0:06:06.800 We were first coming up with ideas for what to 0:06:06.839 --> 0:06:09.880 talk about on this podcast, and we were brainstorming. For 0:06:09.920 --> 0:06:14.640 some reason, Tess was like, I've got an idea for 0:06:14.760 --> 0:06:17.359 a segment. It's called the Bees are back in Town. 0:06:19.440 --> 0:06:22.800 So this was almost an entire year agast a year 0:06:22.800 --> 0:06:27.040 ago we started getting getting the gang back together. So 0:06:27.200 --> 0:06:30.560 if you're not familiar with where the bees were before 0:06:30.560 --> 0:06:33.000 they came back to town, let me just tell you 0:06:33.040 --> 0:06:35.719 that for a while, the bees were suffering from a 0:06:35.760 --> 0:06:39.640 mysterious disease and the honey bees were disappearing, and I 0:06:39.680 --> 0:06:44.400 guess it was called colony collapse. And I love bees. 0:06:44.440 --> 0:06:47.000 I'm I'm a bug friend, a friend of all bugs, 0:06:47.080 --> 0:06:49.479 and this is gonna this is a reoccurring segment. I 0:06:49.480 --> 0:06:51.880 know we've talked about bugs before, we will and we 0:06:51.920 --> 0:06:55.040 will get forever. Um. So this is Insect Corner, a k. 0:06:55.279 --> 0:06:59.120 The bug Bag, bug Bag. But I got very interested 0:06:59.120 --> 0:07:01.240 in what was happening to the bees because there was 0:07:01.440 --> 0:07:04.200 a colony. I guess they just follow the queen. If 0:07:04.240 --> 0:07:08.239 the queen gets like confused, and goes to a bad plate, 0:07:08.279 --> 0:07:11.800 like a bad neighborhood or whatever. Everyone's just following her anyway. 0:07:11.840 --> 0:07:14.400 So there were a bunch of bees that followed a 0:07:14.520 --> 0:07:19.600 queen to the pavement outside of my kids preschool, and 0:07:19.960 --> 0:07:22.960 they were just like on the ground, like a swarm 0:07:23.000 --> 0:07:27.000 of bees. And everybody was pretty divided as to what 0:07:27.160 --> 0:07:31.400 the approach should be to deal with the bees. But eventually, um, 0:07:31.440 --> 0:07:36.160 a bee saving company was called and they relocated. It 0:07:36.240 --> 0:07:38.440 was a pretty crazy scene, like it was a ton 0:07:38.520 --> 0:07:42.240 of bees. But then I was googling the bees, and 0:07:42.720 --> 0:07:46.240 bees are obviously very important. And if you've seen B movie, 0:07:46.560 --> 0:07:50.880 you might also understand you seen the movie like fifty times. 0:07:51.040 --> 0:07:55.280 What have you never seen B movie? But I've made 0:07:55.320 --> 0:07:57.760 a lot of jokes about it. Okay, so be movie. 0:07:58.680 --> 0:08:00.640 You know a lot of times when people get really 0:08:00.720 --> 0:08:04.840 into being fans of a movie that's like, on its face, 0:08:05.080 --> 0:08:08.280 maybe you might call it a bad movie. I think 0:08:08.360 --> 0:08:11.600 that the obsession with it is a little overrated. Not 0:08:11.680 --> 0:08:14.240 the case with the movie, not the case at all. 0:08:14.800 --> 0:08:18.960 There's just so many weird, weird choices and decisions that 0:08:19.040 --> 0:08:21.679 were made in the making of that movie. There's the 0:08:21.840 --> 0:08:25.200 quote at the beginning about how bees are like too 0:08:25.240 --> 0:08:28.280 fat to fly and it's like goes against nature that 0:08:28.360 --> 0:08:31.040 I some people can quote this quote, but I cannot. 0:08:31.160 --> 0:08:32.920 If there's a movie your kids like or do you 0:08:33.040 --> 0:08:35.680 like the movie this? So I came. I came to 0:08:35.679 --> 0:08:39.080 find out about this movie after everybody else, as is 0:08:39.160 --> 0:08:42.960 my my custom, and uh, my kids tend to watch 0:08:43.000 --> 0:08:46.040 things into the ground. So I was. I got up Netflix, 0:08:46.080 --> 0:08:48.199 and I was like, we're watching something you've never seen 0:08:48.280 --> 0:08:51.040 and you're gonna love it. And I was like, what's this. 0:08:51.040 --> 0:08:53.240 This looks like a fun movie, and I turned it on. 0:08:53.280 --> 0:08:56.200 And usually I just kind of like, you know, sit 0:08:56.240 --> 0:08:58.160 in the background and not watch the movie, but this 0:08:58.200 --> 0:09:01.440 movie is impossible to do that with because it's just 0:09:01.480 --> 0:09:04.960 like right off the bat, a very strange movie. Also, 0:09:05.360 --> 0:09:09.120 Rene Zellwegger, for some reason, is like doing something. She's 0:09:09.320 --> 0:09:12.880 disguises her voice. She plays a human. She falls in 0:09:12.920 --> 0:09:15.040 love with a b she falls in love with a be. 0:09:15.360 --> 0:09:18.080 Oh my god, Molly, where do I begin? Where do 0:09:18.120 --> 0:09:20.520 you vegin? Where do I begin? How about the ray 0:09:20.640 --> 0:09:25.720 Leota branded honey that prompts the hero of the movie 0:09:26.000 --> 0:09:29.960 to have a lawsuit against humans for like stealing the 0:09:30.000 --> 0:09:32.520 profits of honey, it's about and you love it because 0:09:32.520 --> 0:09:35.640 it's about capitalism. Did somebody write this on drugs? And 0:09:35.720 --> 0:09:38.680 like Jerry Seinfeld wrighted on drugs in a weekend because 0:09:38.720 --> 0:09:42.600 he wrote B movie? Wait he did, Yes, Molly, I 0:09:42.679 --> 0:09:44.880 kind of always thought it was like the B version 0:09:44.880 --> 0:09:47.560 of Ants with a Z. No, it is very different 0:09:47.559 --> 0:09:50.400 than Ants with his Is it in the Abugs life universe? No? 0:09:50.960 --> 0:09:53.120 The thing is I believe I don't even know if 0:09:53.120 --> 0:09:56.960 it came afterse No, it's not. It's it is its 0:09:57.000 --> 0:10:02.240 own self contained. The movie with Where the B Barry 0:10:02.280 --> 0:10:08.120 Benson Renee Zellweger spoilers. Renee Zellweger saves Barry Benson from 0:10:08.160 --> 0:10:12.360 being killed by her boyfriend, who's like a really dochy guy. 0:10:12.600 --> 0:10:16.040 Barry Benson is not supposed to talk to humans, but 0:10:16.120 --> 0:10:18.640 feels as though he needs to repay her act of 0:10:18.760 --> 0:10:22.920 kindness by like introducing himself to her and then making 0:10:22.960 --> 0:10:26.360 small talk while he's like sitting on her countertop and 0:10:26.440 --> 0:10:30.200 she's really freaked out. How does this resolve? I can't. 0:10:30.240 --> 0:10:31.800 I can't do it, and now I have to make 0:10:31.840 --> 0:10:34.120 everyone watch B move. But it's like Beauty and the B. 0:10:34.440 --> 0:10:36.680 I'm like, can their love ever be Well, the other 0:10:36.760 --> 0:10:38.880 thing that's interesting is at one point in the movie, 0:10:38.960 --> 0:10:42.480 so it's Barry Benson has just graduated from school and 0:10:42.679 --> 0:10:45.240 at some point during the discussion, because they basically go 0:10:45.440 --> 0:10:48.679 in the hive and they're assigned their job roles, and 0:10:48.840 --> 0:10:52.080 he's like, I don't want to be working this job 0:10:52.160 --> 0:10:54.160 for the rest of my life, like turning out the honey. 0:10:54.160 --> 0:10:55.560 I don't want to And there's like a you know, 0:10:55.840 --> 0:10:58.000 a little like homage to the graduate where he's like 0:10:58.040 --> 0:10:59.800 floating in the pool of honey and his parents are 0:10:59.800 --> 0:11:01.360 taught being like, what are you going to do with 0:11:01.400 --> 0:11:03.760 the rest of your life, Barry? And then he has 0:11:03.760 --> 0:11:08.640 like a fantasy that involves like an exploding plane. Anyway, 0:11:08.679 --> 0:11:11.520 but they mentioned the fact that bees only live for 0:11:11.640 --> 0:11:15.680 like not long, and so it's so confusing because he's 0:11:15.720 --> 0:11:19.520 having this relationship with Renee Zellwagger and clearly he's just 0:11:19.559 --> 0:11:23.360 gonna die, like on their third date or something. But 0:11:23.480 --> 0:11:27.840 I mean, the courtroom scenes, it's a really it's a 0:11:27.920 --> 0:11:31.000 really strange movie, and it's so strange that it's good 0:11:31.040 --> 0:11:35.600 just because it's strange. Al Right, Tess Lynch endorsing b movie. Yes, 0:11:35.720 --> 0:11:38.280 But anyway, back to real bees. Bees were dying off. 0:11:38.440 --> 0:11:41.640 Then they came back a full year ago. This was 0:11:41.679 --> 0:11:44.160 all this all happened. You were like, the bees came back, 0:11:44.200 --> 0:11:46.400 and it's like where were they? And you're like, they disappeared. 0:11:46.440 --> 0:11:49.959 They were dying and wandering around confused. But now they're back, 0:11:50.280 --> 0:11:53.080 which is amazing, which is kind of surprising because I 0:11:53.120 --> 0:11:56.400 did not. When you hear something like colony collapse, you're 0:11:56.440 --> 0:11:59.320 not like colony is going to come back real strong, 0:11:59.400 --> 0:12:02.880 necess but it's very encouraging. And these are bouncing back. 0:12:02.960 --> 0:12:06.560 These are bouncing back. The bees are back in town. 0:12:05.480 --> 0:12:12.800 The bees are back. The bees are back in town. 0:12:13.679 --> 0:12:17.439 Do you have a favorite bug? Um? Well, right now? 0:12:17.600 --> 0:12:20.480 Like bees? Bees? Bees? Um? Also, when you said the 0:12:20.480 --> 0:12:22.800 B expert, my friend told me about a B expert 0:12:22.880 --> 0:12:26.240 whose name is a B Man. He changed his name 0:12:26.320 --> 0:12:31.120 so I would come up first under under be looking 0:12:31.160 --> 0:12:34.480 for bees. It's a a B man and he's the 0:12:34.520 --> 0:12:38.640 B expert. Um. I do like bees. I love bees. 0:12:38.760 --> 0:12:41.440 I think they're really cool. I always would rescue them 0:12:41.440 --> 0:12:47.320 from pools. My question, thank you. I also think spiders 0:12:47.320 --> 0:12:49.800 are really cool. You know some big ones, but you're 0:12:49.880 --> 0:12:52.360 more of the bug the bug lady. Um, what are 0:12:52.360 --> 0:12:56.000 the best bugs. I do like a praying mantis for 0:12:56.040 --> 0:12:58.880 obvious reasons, but also just they look the most like 0:12:58.920 --> 0:13:03.280 aliens ants. I've been back and forth with those guys. 0:13:03.320 --> 0:13:05.400 For sure. There was some hanging out out front. How 0:13:05.440 --> 0:13:07.400 do you feel? You just respect it and I live 0:13:07.440 --> 0:13:10.520 and let lift because basically, like I think I may 0:13:10.520 --> 0:13:12.760 have actually already talked about this on the podcast, which 0:13:12.800 --> 0:13:15.280 would be like really embarrassing. But after I learned that 0:13:15.320 --> 0:13:19.439 ants colonized aphids and they farm them and then they 0:13:19.440 --> 0:13:22.560 have this system where the aphids bring them nectar in 0:13:22.640 --> 0:13:25.680 exchange for the ants basically like being their bodyguards and 0:13:25.720 --> 0:13:29.680 location scouts, I was like, I just can't spray them anymore. Wow, 0:13:29.720 --> 0:13:31.800 you did not say that before, because I would have 0:13:31.840 --> 0:13:34.600 been impressed. That's really cool. So what happens is if 0:13:34.600 --> 0:13:36.840 you ever see if you're in l a who have 0:13:37.120 --> 0:13:40.440 a citrus tree to examine, um, you might notice what 0:13:40.520 --> 0:13:44.240 looks like like fuzzy mold. It kind of looks like cotton, 0:13:44.679 --> 0:13:48.120 and those are a fits. They're like wooly a fits, 0:13:48.240 --> 0:13:50.840 and you'll see a lot of ants next to them. 0:13:50.920 --> 0:13:53.240 And I assumed that that was the food chain thing, 0:13:53.400 --> 0:13:56.040 but it's not. The ants aren't eating the aphids. The 0:13:56.080 --> 0:13:59.080 aphids stuck out sap from the tree. Ants go up 0:13:59.120 --> 0:14:01.760 and tap them with an antenna, which is a signal 0:14:01.880 --> 0:14:04.320 like give me. I mean, they're like mafia don that's 0:14:04.360 --> 0:14:07.640 so cool. And then the ants kind of protect them, 0:14:07.640 --> 0:14:10.600 they like lead them to the best places, they protect 0:14:10.600 --> 0:14:15.000 them from other predators. Interdependent species. It's interesting, right, It's 0:14:15.080 --> 0:14:18.800 so interesting. I also this makes me want to recommend 0:14:18.920 --> 0:14:23.080 there's a documentary on Netflix right now about Rachel Carson. Uh, 0:14:23.200 --> 0:14:27.400 the nature writer and all around cool, cool lady. I 0:14:27.440 --> 0:14:30.840 think it's American Masters Rachel Carson, and I found it 0:14:30.960 --> 0:14:35.360 so inspiring. She's most famous for having written Silent Spring, 0:14:35.440 --> 0:14:38.720 but she kind of started the like seventies environmentalism movement 0:14:38.840 --> 0:14:41.560 because she was writing a lot about how everything is 0:14:41.560 --> 0:14:44.880 interdependent and how this idea of like putting man at 0:14:44.880 --> 0:14:49.520 the center of everything is just insane and also not 0:14:49.600 --> 0:14:53.720 how anything works UM, and she tried to write about 0:14:54.040 --> 0:14:58.200 DCT before anybody wanted to talk about it about UM, 0:14:58.240 --> 0:15:01.240 just because you invent something doesn't mean you should use it, 0:15:01.480 --> 0:15:04.240 which is something we think about a lot in terms 0:15:04.240 --> 0:15:08.760 of tech stuff that not every idea that people have 0:15:08.840 --> 0:15:13.000 that's profitable is good for the environment or human beings. 0:15:13.480 --> 0:15:15.960 But we've really gotten ourselves into a bad predicament with 0:15:16.000 --> 0:15:20.880 the mosquitoes. I have our fault. I'm saying it's our way, 0:15:20.920 --> 0:15:22.960 and also like if they take over, that's what we 0:15:23.080 --> 0:15:28.080 deserve a little bit. Well. Check out the Rachel Carson documentary. 0:15:28.080 --> 0:15:31.360 I also just found it really inspiring because it's like 0:15:31.520 --> 0:15:35.120 she did what she had to do. She knew that 0:15:35.160 --> 0:15:37.360 the fish were important and she had to write a 0:15:37.400 --> 0:15:40.280 book to teach everybody. And her book about fish became 0:15:40.320 --> 0:15:42.600 like really popular because it was like post war and 0:15:42.640 --> 0:15:47.040 everybody was like excited to read a relaxing book about fish. 0:15:47.040 --> 0:15:48.800 And maybe it's during the war and that's why. Anyway, 0:15:48.880 --> 0:15:51.040 check it out. It's a great documentary. That whole series 0:15:51.120 --> 0:15:53.760 is good. The Walt Disney one is also amazing and 0:15:53.760 --> 0:16:02.040 I recommend it highly. We're gonna answer one of night 0:16:02.040 --> 0:16:05.880 calls great mysteries, the most burning question, the most burning 0:16:05.960 --> 0:16:10.320 question that we've had, the ice cream truck ghost mystery 0:16:10.640 --> 0:16:14.640 from our friend Kate. Kate called us with a night 0:16:14.640 --> 0:16:18.600 call about how she was getting mysterious calls from a 0:16:18.680 --> 0:16:23.680 ice cream truck that would say hello Hello, a scary 0:16:23.680 --> 0:16:28.200 ice cream truck and she didn't know why, and we 0:16:28.880 --> 0:16:31.320 heard about it a lot. A lot of people suggested 0:16:31.440 --> 0:16:37.040 to reply all article episode that implied it was a scam. 0:16:37.240 --> 0:16:39.640 We were waiting to see if we would ever find out, 0:16:40.280 --> 0:16:42.880 and now we found out, Tess, would you like to 0:16:42.960 --> 0:16:45.040 do the honors? I would love to. This comes from Kate. 0:16:45.520 --> 0:16:48.320 Hey night, call per your request. I called back and 0:16:48.400 --> 0:16:51.320 left another message explaining what happened. Here's a backup email 0:16:51.360 --> 0:16:53.160 in case my call cuts out again. I'm in a 0:16:53.280 --> 0:16:56.400 rural area. Sometimes services bad. We're relying on the email 0:16:56.400 --> 0:16:58.440 because oh right, because she called back and it got 0:16:58.520 --> 0:17:00.320 cut off. That's why we were like, oh, we're never 0:17:00.400 --> 0:17:03.520 going to find out. But no, okay, go on, okay, okay, 0:17:03.680 --> 0:17:06.639 back to Kay. The big reveal came as I was 0:17:06.720 --> 0:17:09.440 leaving New Orleans a few weeks ago. Some friends came 0:17:09.480 --> 0:17:11.679 over to say goodbye, and when they said we have 0:17:11.840 --> 0:17:16.119 something to confess, I realized immediately that they where the 0:17:16.160 --> 0:17:19.560 ice cream truck ghost. They would call me number blocked 0:17:19.600 --> 0:17:22.040 and hold the phone up to this YouTube video, which 0:17:22.080 --> 0:17:25.040 she links. I had apparently mentioned to them in passing 0:17:25.119 --> 0:17:26.919 several months ago that I used to live near an 0:17:26.920 --> 0:17:30.320 ice cream truck deep depot in Brooklyn, in Bushwick, off 0:17:30.359 --> 0:17:33.040 the Morgan l stop, so I would often hear the 0:17:33.240 --> 0:17:37.160 hello and the songs from my window. I probably should 0:17:37.160 --> 0:17:39.719 have placed this together, but instead I spun out an 0:17:39.720 --> 0:17:44.000 elaborate and terrifying theory in my head, story of my life. Anyway, 0:17:44.040 --> 0:17:46.800 I'm relieved it was just my friends being goofy. However, 0:17:46.920 --> 0:17:49.400 I still believe that ice that ice cream trucks are 0:17:49.480 --> 0:17:54.399 deeply haunted. Wow. So it was interesting. Yeah, everybody, we 0:17:54.480 --> 0:17:58.240 got like fifteen emails or something UM suggesting we listened 0:17:58.240 --> 0:18:02.240 to this reply All episode, but there were differences between 0:18:02.280 --> 0:18:05.560 what Kate had originally described and this scam that they 0:18:05.600 --> 0:18:08.960 looked into on reply All, which obviously is such a 0:18:09.000 --> 0:18:11.800 good podcast and you should listen to um. But yeah, 0:18:11.840 --> 0:18:14.120 it was it was just her friends punking her right, 0:18:14.200 --> 0:18:16.760 which is also scary. It is kind of scary. But 0:18:16.840 --> 0:18:19.120 it's funny that you would mention something haunting and then 0:18:19.119 --> 0:18:21.520 forget it, because that's totally something that I could picture. 0:18:21.640 --> 0:18:24.640 It's funny you would forget mentioning that you lived next 0:18:24.720 --> 0:18:27.879 to an ice cream truck depot. Yeah, that's awesome, because 0:18:27.960 --> 0:18:32.560 that's hilarious and awesome, but also it makes more sense 0:18:32.600 --> 0:18:36.359 that way because it's such a specific Brooklyn. Everybody in 0:18:36.400 --> 0:18:38.240 Brooklyn is like, oh, yes, the ice cream truck that 0:18:38.240 --> 0:18:42.640 goes hello. I also am glad that we got an answer. 0:18:42.760 --> 0:18:44.399 I didn't know we were ever going to get an answer. 0:18:44.840 --> 0:18:48.119 You never know. Thank you Kate in a Ride for 0:18:48.520 --> 0:18:57.080 solving the Zodiac murders. Leggings are so much more than 0:18:57.119 --> 0:19:00.480 work out clothes.

Yeah, it's the twenty anniversary of 0:21:16.760 --> 0:21:22.760 the show Felicity, Everyone's favorite sometimes sci fi college drama. 0:21:22.880 --> 0:21:25.720 Y wait, when was it? In Like the last two episodes, 0:21:25.760 --> 0:21:28.640 there was like a like a time split. They did 0:21:28.640 --> 0:21:32.240 like alternate worlds of like if she'd gone with Ben 0:21:32.320 --> 0:21:35.359 or if she'd picked no Let's just start off with 0:21:35.440 --> 0:21:39.520 the heavy hitters Ban or no Oh. In the end, 0:21:39.760 --> 0:21:42.720 I was a nold girl, what I know. But that 0:21:42.800 --> 0:21:45.400 was the thing is that eventually Ben just Ben had 0:21:45.440 --> 0:21:47.520 like Ben was a hot douchebag. He was like the 0:21:47.520 --> 0:21:50.040 blonde Jordan Catalano a little bit, but Noel was a 0:21:50.080 --> 0:21:52.359 little bit of a Brian crack out. He was totally 0:21:52.359 --> 0:21:54.480 a Brian crack out. But I think you should data, 0:21:54.560 --> 0:21:56.879 but you don't want to. Well, also, he was her 0:21:56.920 --> 0:21:59.680 resident advisor, so there's like he was he had that 0:21:59.760 --> 0:22:02.239 kind of like paternalistic thing that I think is kind 0:22:02.240 --> 0:22:04.560 of gross. But then eventually they kind of moved out 0:22:04.560 --> 0:22:06.320 of that, and I thought like he just had a 0:22:06.359 --> 0:22:09.760 little more like pizzazz than Ben. In the end, Yeah, 0:22:09.760 --> 0:22:13.080 Ben was very like he has like darn catalano, right, 0:22:13.359 --> 0:22:15.200 just like a cipher. Well, he's like, yeah, he's hotter 0:22:15.320 --> 0:22:17.280 before you know anything about him, and you can just 0:22:17.359 --> 0:22:19.919 project like how deep you think he might be on him? Right, 0:22:20.000 --> 0:22:21.960 and then you talked to him and you're like, oh, 0:22:22.119 --> 0:22:24.359 maybe not so smart? Yeah, do you think she should 0:22:24.359 --> 0:22:27.119 have gone to Stanford? I forget even that was the 0:22:27.119 --> 0:22:28.919 setup was like the set up. I just had to 0:22:28.920 --> 0:22:30.800
