Speaker 1: podcast yet, but minew Year's resolution besides dry sixty nine

90
00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:46,160
Speaker 1: ing in twenty twenty five was to go to Greenland

91
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:49,120
Speaker 1: and to drink margarita. Yes, And I'm not doing that

92
00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:52,080
Speaker 1: because when I came up with that, yep, it was

93
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:54,359
Speaker 1: before the idea turmoil.

94
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:56,000
Speaker 2: It was just a good the idea.

95
00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:59,320
Speaker 1: Now I want nothing to do with the I don't

96
00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:00,960
Speaker 1: want to be in a manor and showing up there

97
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:03,760
Speaker 1: and doing something silly. So I don't want any association

98
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:07,919
Speaker 1: whatsoever with any regimes. So I'm going to think of

99
00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:11,479
Speaker 1: something new. And I have a hunch, but I might

100
00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:16,080
Speaker 1: wait until you if you do ever drink again, I'm

101
00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:19,080
Speaker 1: thinking I'll drink again, Baby, do it? Okay? Good. I'm

102
00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:22,719
Speaker 1: thinking about doing something that I googled and couldn't find

103
00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:26,640
Speaker 1: anybody's ever done it at the Mall of America. I

104
00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:28,960
Speaker 1: want to do the Crawl of America where I go

105
00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:31,320
Speaker 1: and it opens and I have a drink at every

106
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:34,120
Speaker 1: single bar and restaurant that has a bar in the

107
00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:34,800
Speaker 1: Mall of America.

108
00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:39,800
Speaker 2: Oh, my god, guess what In northern New Jersey there

109
00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:44,160
Speaker 2: is a new Mall of America. Oh, it has a

110
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:46,960
Speaker 2: it has a ski hill in it. We could get it,

111
00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:51,400
Speaker 2: drink at every bar, and we could go skiing, ride

112
00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:52,560
Speaker 2: a roll or coaster.

113
00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:53,200
Speaker 1: Done.

114
00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:56,080
Speaker 2: I want to drink at every single bar there.

115
00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:58,479
Speaker 1: Also the ban Animals. I won't announce it till the

116
00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:01,400
Speaker 1: day of, but or we won't announce it to the

117
00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:04,200
Speaker 1: day of because I don't want like one hundred people

118
00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:06,240
Speaker 1: to show up. But that morning I'll be like, we

119
00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:08,120
Speaker 1: are at the Mall of America. If you want to

120
00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:10,480
Speaker 1: meet us for one drink at one of these bars,

121
00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:13,160
Speaker 1: come on and crawl America with us. So I'm thinking

122
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:18,480
Speaker 1: Crawl of America because it's dumb, it's representative of America,

123
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,200
Speaker 1: and I couldn't find anybody who's ever done it. So

124
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:23,480
Speaker 1: I want it to become a bananas tradition, to do

125
00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:24,360
Speaker 1: the Crawl of America.

126
00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:28,640
Speaker 2: The bye I mean, like, my god, by how many

127
00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:29,680
Speaker 2: bars are there?

128
00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:32,480
Speaker 1: Well, there's a ton. So I looked at the the

129
00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:37,320
Speaker 1: the og, the one we all know, and there are

130
00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:40,560
Speaker 1: so many restaurants that serve alcohol. But I'm talking places

131
00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:43,480
Speaker 1: that actually have a bar that you can sit down

132
00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:47,240
Speaker 1: on a stool or at a high chair. I mean,

133
00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:52,320
Speaker 1: I love this, So I think it's like seventeen seventeen. Yeah,

134
00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:54,680
Speaker 1: that's I could. I was just going online. So also,

135
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:58,080
Speaker 1: if you're an animal at either location of All America

136
00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:00,440
Speaker 1: and you just have time to wander around them all

137
00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:04,200
Speaker 1: and count how many actual bars. I'm talking Margaritaville's all

138
00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:07,040
Speaker 1: the sports bars. I'm sure there's a hard rock in there.

139
00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:10,280
Speaker 1: Let me know, we would have to.

140
00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:12,040
Speaker 2: Like keep up a clip. We'd have to keep a

141
00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:13,040
Speaker 2: pretty good clip up.

142
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:14,680
Speaker 1: You know, we're gon be eating a lot, and we're

143
00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:16,720
Speaker 1: gonna be doing a lot of activities, and I bet

144
00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:18,480
Speaker 1: we buy some zany and funny hats.

145
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:21,880
Speaker 2: So at a certain point we're gonna just have to

146
00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:24,000
Speaker 2: be like I just have to have a sip of beer,

147
00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:26,280
Speaker 2: like a shot of beer or something like that.

148
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:29,280
Speaker 1: You know, but you live how you want, A nice

00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:30,320
Speaker 1: little bailey.

150
00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:34,800
Speaker 2: I definitely something I definitely can't have seventeen drinks throughout

151
00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:37,240
Speaker 2: the day. I don't think I physically could do it.

152
00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:38,160
Speaker 2: I really don't.

153
00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:41,360
Speaker 1: You've changed. He used to be able to do it.

154
00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:43,480
Speaker 1: We used to One night, you and me and Kristen

155
00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:47,000

157
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:53,080
Speaker 2: It was beer. I was very a drinking beer.

158
00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:55,959
Speaker 1: Then, and so was Kristi. And it was I remember

159
00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:59,560
Speaker 1: just being like, this is us now, Like we just

160
00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:04,320
Speaker 1: became best friends because we sat here and drank thirty

161
00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:08,320
Speaker 1: four beers between three people at from eleven pm to

162
00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:10,200
Speaker 1: four am. That's the other thing too, It's like, why

163
00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:14,439
Speaker 1: not start right before the next day does so? Anyways,

164
00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:18,079
Speaker 1: sorry to the rest of the world, you know. But yeah,

165
00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:20,200
Speaker 1: I'm not going to Greenland my whole life. I looked

166
00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:24,640
Speaker 1: at Greenland on maps, yeah, and our globes and it's gigantic.

167
00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:29,560
Speaker 2: So funny how the distortion makes it look so big.

168
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,720
Speaker 2: It's like, well, the majority of the world is the

169
00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:33,920
Speaker 2: top of Greenland.

170
00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:37,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, it seems like a wonderful country. Maybe we'll have

171
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:40,199
Speaker 1: a guest on the Manas from Greenland. That seems like

172
00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:42,880
Speaker 1: a fun thing to do. But yeah, I'm not going.

173
00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:47,640
Speaker 1: I'm not getting involved in whatever baloney is happening. Yeah,

174
00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:53,080
Speaker 1: but uh. Crawl of America twenty twenty five, twenty twenty six.

175
00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:54,880
Speaker 2: We'll see, we'll see, we'll see.

176
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:56,840
Speaker 1: I love it. It's a it's a newbie, all right.

177
00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,560
Speaker 1: Tell me about this snake. That this whistling snake.

178
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,560
Speaker 2: This was sent in by someone who's never sent in

179
00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:06,199
Speaker 2: anything before hot d It was literally in the request

180
00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:12,839
Speaker 2: section of our messages on our DMS, and so nice

181
00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:17,199
Speaker 2: Crypto goth sent this in, also known as k S.

182
00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:19,800
Speaker 2: I didn't know which they would prefer to go by.

183
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:27,240
Speaker 2: This was in BBC Wildlife Cautel Discover Wildlife Okay, and

184
00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:31,679
Speaker 2: it was written by Pat kinsella.

185
00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:36,120
Speaker 1: Oh best in the biz.

186
00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:37,960
Speaker 2: That's what they say about Pat.

187
00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:43,000
Speaker 1: Pat Pat's he or she We don't know they doesn't matter.

188
00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:47,080
Speaker 2: Snake found in Ireland for first time ever as fisherman

189
00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:50,960
Speaker 2: stumbles upon strange whistling serpent. This is this story continually.

190
00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:54,400
Speaker 2: There's one of those stories that, just as it goes,

191
00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:55,760
Speaker 2: continues to get weirder.

192
00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:58,280
Speaker 1: Ireland doesn't have snakes already. Didn't know that.

193
00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:01,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was like the whole myth right of Saint Patrick,

194
00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:04,520
Speaker 2: and he got rid of him. The usually tight knit

195
00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:07,960
Speaker 2: population on a small island in the west of Ireland

196
00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:11,320
Speaker 2: is being split by an issue no one saw coming.

197
00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:14,160
Speaker 2: Only a few weeks ago when the community came together

198
00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:18,239
Speaker 2: as usual to celebrate Saint Patrick's Day with the annual

199
00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:21,400
Speaker 2: here it is. Are you ready for me to murder this?

200
00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:28,680
Speaker 2: Of course, it's called a snake hunt festival, and the

201
00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:32,040
Speaker 2: cause of the conflict on Claire Island in Klue Bay County,

202
00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:35,480
Speaker 2: Mayo couldn't be more pertinent. It revolves around the mysterious

203
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:39,080
Speaker 2: recent arrival of a real snake on the isle, a

204
00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:45,120
Speaker 2: whistling one no less known scientifically as snake aus aviifolus.

205
00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:49,320
Speaker 2: I wish they gave us its common name as well. Yeah,

206
00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:53,080
Speaker 2: I mean, I guess it's called whistling snake. The question

207
00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:56,800
Speaker 2: of what to do about less known than big celebrations

208
00:11:56,840 --> 00:12:00,760
Speaker 2: such as Puck Fair in Kilgoreland County Kerry, when a

209
00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:05,120
Speaker 2: wild goat is captured, crowned as king and put up

210
00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:07,760
Speaker 2: on a tall pillar to rein over the town for

211
00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:10,839
Speaker 2: three days before being released. Did you know about this?

212
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:13,640
Speaker 1: Of course I didn't, because I would have. I could

213
00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:16,960
Speaker 1: only wear shirts that had that exact image on it

214
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:18,040
Speaker 1: for the rest of my life.

215
00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:23,520
Speaker 2: I mean, this is just an offhanded remark about in

216
00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:26,679
Speaker 2: this article. This is just like, well, this is you know,

217
00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:31,280
Speaker 2: it's not this. I mean that, I want a whole

218
00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:33,760
Speaker 2: thing about that. I want to do a whole episode

219
00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:34,160
Speaker 2: about that.

220
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:38,600
Speaker 1: You got that right. I saw. I was in Sneam,

221
00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:42,280
Speaker 1: which is a village in Ireland, and it's beautiful. Sneam

222
00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:44,839
Speaker 1: was and when I got out of the vehicle, it's

223
00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:47,360
Speaker 1: just walking around. It's in County Carry. There was a

224
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:53,000
Speaker 1: long twisted horn sheep, yeah, ram whatever. They are there

225
00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:56,000
Speaker 1: just standing in the town square and all of us

226
00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:59,800
Speaker 1: were like, is this a pet? Is this wild? Everybody

227
00:12:59,880 --> 00:13:02,560
Speaker 1: was taking like sort of like long distance selfies with it,

228
00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:05,800
Speaker 1: but they it was majestic. I'll say that.

229
00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:08,880
Speaker 2: Oh nice. Well, I mean, like you can imagine.

230
00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:11,160
Speaker 1: If shout out to Sneam, all the Sneam and animals

231
00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:15,520
Speaker 1: out there, if that goat was or if that sheep

232
00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:17,840
Speaker 1: could have been mayor of that town at the time.

233
00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:21,400
Speaker 2: Was That's why it was in the in the town square. Claire, Okay,

234
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:24,640
Speaker 2: so less well known than big celebrations such as Puck Fair,

235
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:30,160
Speaker 2: Claire Island's traditional snake chase and something is a colorful

236
00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:34,520
Speaker 2: carnival that's also been celebrated for centuries. Each seventeen March,

237
00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:37,920
Speaker 2: one person, typically someone who has made themselves a bit

238
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:42,760
Speaker 2: unpopular during the preceding year, is nominated as the snake

239
00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:47,520
Speaker 2: painted green and then pursued around the Craggy Island by

240
00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:50,319
Speaker 2: the other participants. Most of the islands one hundred and

241
00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:54,320
Speaker 2: thirty strong population take part. When caught, they're hurled into

242
00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:59,640
Speaker 2: the sea. So that's what normally. Yes, it does sound fantastic,

243
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:03,319
Speaker 2: but that's what normally happens. That's the normal run of

244
00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:06,079
Speaker 2: the mill March seventeenth for this island.

245
00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:09,880
Speaker 1: Okay, why do we like When you draw a snake,

246
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:12,240
Speaker 1: you draw green. But if you look at snakes, there's

247
00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:15,440
Speaker 1: so few green snakes. Like if I picture every snake

248
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:17,520
Speaker 1: I've ever seen in person in my life, I've actually

249
00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:20,120
Speaker 1: never seen a green snake besides garter snakes that have

250
00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:20,920
Speaker 1: stripes on them.

251
00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:24,400
Speaker 2: I mean, the only reason I know which exactly which

252
00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:26,920
Speaker 2: snakes are green is because I do have a child

253
00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:30,320
Speaker 2: who is obsessed with snakes. That's great, but they're all

254
00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:34,760
Speaker 2: they're all pretty uh tropical, They're all the vipers and

255
00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:37,400
Speaker 2: stuff like that. There is a green cobra that exists

256
00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:40,000
Speaker 2: in India, and the only reason I know about that

257
00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:44,400
Speaker 2: is because Olive's team is, like her soccer team is

258
00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:47,080
Speaker 2: green and Alive was like cobras, And then the coaches

259
00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:50,480
Speaker 2: were like, well, you know, there's cobras aren't green, And

260
00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:53,520
Speaker 2: Olive was like, yes, the Indian green cobra is green.

261
00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:57,360
Speaker 2: And I was like, I didn't want to say anything,

262
00:14:57,360 --> 00:15:00,200
Speaker 2: but I was like, if she says it's true, guys,

263
00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:02,320
Speaker 2: it's gonna turn out to be true.

264
00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:02,880
Speaker 1: Yeah.

265
00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:05,640
Speaker 2: The amount of times like a googled stuff that Olive

266
00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:08,640
Speaker 2: has said, being like I don't think that's true, honey,

267
00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:10,400
Speaker 2: and then googled and be like, oh no, she's right.

268
00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:14,120
Speaker 2: She read it in some national geographic at some point

269
00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:15,600
Speaker 2: and it's stuck in her little brain.

270
00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:17,120
Speaker 1: She's gonna save the world.

271
00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:20,520
Speaker 2: The event invokes the legend of Saint Patrick, who famously

272
00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:22,960
Speaker 2: chased a slither of snakes into the sea during the

273
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:25,760
Speaker 2: fifth century after they rudely attacked him during a forty

274
00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:29,400
Speaker 2: day fast on the Krogpatrick, the holy mountain that towers

275
00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:33,120
Speaker 2: over Klue Bay, and then banished the beasts forevermore from

276
00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:36,600
Speaker 2: the Irish soil. The story about the Saints sending serpents

277
00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:39,880
Speaker 2: packing is of course apocryphal. In truth, the island of

278
00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:43,040
Speaker 2: Ireland never had any snakes for Saint Pat to pursue

279
00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:46,040
Speaker 2: into the waves in the first place, having become detached

280
00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:49,360
Speaker 2: from the rest of Europe ten thousand years ago during

281
00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:52,400
Speaker 2: the Last Ice Age, a full two thousand years before

282
00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:56,200
Speaker 2: Britain too broke away, leaving no land bridge for cold

283
00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:59,320
Speaker 2: blooded reptiles to get across once the ice had melted.

284
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:03,720
Speaker 2: Well that's interesting, okay. Still, the irony of a real

285
00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:06,920
Speaker 2: snake suddenly being sighted in the immediate aftermath of Saint

286
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:11,080
Speaker 2: Patrick's day on place so close to Krokpatrick is not

287
00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:15,160
Speaker 2: lost on the customers at O'Malley's food store and post office,

288
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:17,400
Speaker 2: one of the few places that remains open year round

289
00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:18,360
Speaker 2: on Claire Island.

290
00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:20,520
Speaker 1: How nice is that nice?

291
00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:24,720
Speaker 2: Once home to the fearless pirate Queen Granny O'Malley, the

292
00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:27,920
Speaker 2: usually quiet island may just have another claim to fame,

293
00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:30,840
Speaker 2: and locals are bracing themselves for an onslaught of reporters

294
00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:34,360
Speaker 2: and social media influencers. Quote. The last thing I thought

295
00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:37,320
Speaker 2: I'd have to worry about this spring was checking my freckin'

296
00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:42,160
Speaker 2: wellies for snakes, grumbles Kelly, who has come to collect

297
00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:45,920
Speaker 2: her groceries this inconvenience. Aside, the forty six year old

298
00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:47,680
Speaker 2: at Mitch She's glad to be out of the house

299
00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:54,400
Speaker 2: because it was Ao's. I mean, the name is aoife s.

300
00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:59,040
Speaker 2: How do you think that is pronounced's OIF's husband was

301
00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:07,600
Speaker 2: I'm almost certain it's not Oi oi If. Salesman was

302
00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:11,400
Speaker 2: first who first spotted the serpent, and the phone hasn't

303
00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:15,360
Speaker 2: stopped ringing since last Tuesday. While preparing to put out

304
00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:16,840
Speaker 2: to see, as he had done for most days for

305
00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:19,760
Speaker 2: the last thirty years, Finton Kelly noticed an odd movement

306
00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:22,760
Speaker 2: around the lobster pots in the harbor. Looking closer, he

307
00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:25,280
Speaker 2: was startled to see and even more surprised to hear,

308
00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:29,200
Speaker 2: a snake. Quick Thinking, Finton managed to get a slightly

309
00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:32,280
Speaker 2: blurry photo of the animal, later identified as a kind

310
00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:37,000
Speaker 2: of ribbon snake usually resident in North Africa, known to

311
00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:40,800
Speaker 2: the Bedouin as the Saharan singing serpent.

312
00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:44,640
Speaker 1: Now that is a name, good mascot for a sports team.

313
00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:48,160
Speaker 1: The gallif got it wrong. Yeah, no singing serpents.

314
00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:51,160
Speaker 2: Because it makes a melodic sound somewhere between a whistle

315
00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:52,240
Speaker 2: and a hum.

316
00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:53,360
Speaker 1: Wow.

317
00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:56,480
Speaker 2: What to do about the visiting viper is a vexatious issue.

318
00:17:56,520 --> 00:18:01,280
Speaker 2: Thank you, thank you, BBC. That was beautiful, causing debate

319
00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:07,080
Speaker 2: and division. Look at that, all this alliteration, visiting, viper vexatious, debate, division,

320
00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:09,679
Speaker 2: I love it, and house holds. Across the island. Some

321
00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:12,280
Speaker 2: residents are demanding the reptile be cast into the sea.

322
00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:16,280
Speaker 2: We're good at that, says Oife, who's among the anti

323
00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:19,880
Speaker 2: snake contingent. Others, including Fitton, want to extend a warm

324
00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:23,879
Speaker 2: It's three Irish words, welcome to the serpent, and can

325
00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:26,960
Speaker 2: see a commercial benefit of having him around. People say

326
00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:29,720
Speaker 2: that snakes aren't from here, but sure neither are wallabies

327
00:18:29,760 --> 00:18:33,520
Speaker 2: and look what they've done for tourism on Lamby. Wait,

328
00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:35,480
Speaker 2: there's wallabies on Lamby.

329
00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:38,679
Speaker 1: Scotty, I'm going to Lamby. This has just jumped up

330
00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:40,520
Speaker 1: my places to go travel list.

331
00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:44,359
Speaker 2: Wait, he's referring to the Lambee Islands off the Coasta

332
00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:46,959
Speaker 2: County Dublin, which has been home to a thriving, although

333
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:52,320
Speaker 2: presumably shivering, colony of wild rednecked wallabies since the nineteen eighties.

334
00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:55,080
Speaker 2: The incongruous marsupials have indeed become a big attraction, with

335
00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:58,360
Speaker 2: guys leading trips to see them. What is going on

336
00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:01,840
Speaker 2: about this, oh, Bobby? So they named the snake Bobby Bobby,

337
00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:03,720
Speaker 2: that's what we're calling him, could put us back on

338
00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:07,200
Speaker 2: the map as Ireland snake Island enthusa the fishermen. It'll

339
00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:10,640
Speaker 2: make the place edgy again, a bit sexy and dangerous

340
00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:14,320
Speaker 2: like when Granny was around. And he can hold a note.

341
00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:16,639
Speaker 2: If if I can catch him, I might even be

342
00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:19,480
Speaker 2: able to teach him a traditional tune or two. I mean,

343
00:19:19,560 --> 00:19:23,520
Speaker 2: what is going If this wasn't published March thirty first,

344
00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:25,560
Speaker 2: I would think this is an April fool's joke.

345
00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:27,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, I love this story. This is a great story.

346
00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:29,840
Speaker 1: It makes me love Ireland even more than I know.

347
00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:31,919
Speaker 2: Ireland is so great.

348
00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:35,160
Speaker 1: They're finding the positives in this. So many people would

349
00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:37,600
Speaker 1: be like, kill it, mail it back to Africa, get

350
00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:39,800
Speaker 1: this thing out of here, and these guys are like,

351
00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:42,440
Speaker 1: start printing the t shirts. Guys, they should have slide

352
00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:45,200
Speaker 1: whistles that look like snakes. They pull the tails, of course,

353
00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:48,720
Speaker 1: one hundred percent well into the faces. And Bobby is

354
00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:50,119
Speaker 1: the funniest name I know.

355
00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:53,359
Speaker 2: Bobby's the funniest name. OIF's daughters is knitting him a

356
00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:56,680
Speaker 2: jersey and they said they've had people donating their old

357
00:19:56,720 --> 00:19:58,680
Speaker 2: socks for him to wear because they're worried about him

358
00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:00,200
Speaker 2: being cold in the winter time.

359
00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:03,280
Speaker 1: Oh God, what a what a place, what a country.

360
00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:05,600
Speaker 1: We love the Irish. We love the Irish bananals. What

361
00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:07,520
Speaker 1: a place. I want to go meet Bobby and I

362
00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:10,840
Speaker 1: also want to see some redneck Wallabies. Uh huh red

363
00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:14,800
Speaker 1: Nick Wallaby. Yeah funny. What if they're like redneck Americans?

364
00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:19,000
Speaker 1: What if they're just driving trucks with no tailgates and

365
00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:22,640
Speaker 1: rust patches everywhere and lighting bottle rockets at each other.

366
00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:25,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, making homemade hot tubs in the back.

367
00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:28,840
Speaker 1: Of their trucks, putting empty beer case boxes on their head,

368
00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:31,240
Speaker 1: and jumping bonfires that are made out of palletts that

369
00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:35,879
Speaker 1: they'll never clean up. The nails or screws, Nicks. They

370
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:38,480
Speaker 1: really they really resourceful people.

371
00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:38,560
Speaker 4: I know.

372
00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:40,760
Speaker 2: So I'm just going to tell you this. I won't

373
00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:42,760
Speaker 2: read the rest of this because it's a BBC article.

374
00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:48,280
Speaker 2: It's very long. But some people think that the snake

375
00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:49,760
Speaker 2: hitched a ride on the back of a bird.

376
00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:52,080
Speaker 1: I believe in Africa.

377
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:58,959
Speaker 2: I guess certain martins do over winter in Africa, and

378
00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:03,200
Speaker 2: it's not unheard of predatory animals taxing only piggybag piggyback

379
00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:06,840
Speaker 2: a lift and others just think it's someone's escape snake.

380
00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:08,840
Speaker 2: But with one hundred and thirty people on the island,

381
00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:11,399
Speaker 2: you can pretty quickly find out if someone had a snake,

382
00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:14,600
Speaker 2: especially a singing Saharan serpent.

383
00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:17,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, it came in. It on a it came on

384
00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:18,160
Speaker 1: a bird.

385
00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:21,040
Speaker 2: The number of things that I've learned in this article.

386
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:22,560
Speaker 1: It's a educational part.

387
00:21:22,600 --> 00:21:25,880
Speaker 2: It's a huge number. It's more than the usual article.

388
00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:27,879
Speaker 1: I know. We could wrap it up right now and

389
00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:30,520
Speaker 1: I would say this was a top ten episode of bananas,

390
00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:32,960
Speaker 1: but we'll keep it going because we know people have

391
00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:36,080
Speaker 1: long commutes and lots of dishes to do and are

392
00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:41,840
Speaker 1: miserable at work, and that's where we come in. Snakes

393
00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:45,159
Speaker 1: fill a void in my life, similar to lava, where

394
00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:47,440
Speaker 1: there's nothing I want to do more than like touch

395
00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:50,800
Speaker 1: them and experience them, but it would probably lead to

396
00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:54,240
Speaker 1: my demise. They are very attractive. And then at the

397
00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:56,320
Speaker 1: same time, you're like, when I see a rattlesnake in

398
00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:59,639
Speaker 1: Los Angeles which lived here for eleven years, twelve years,

399
00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:04,080
Speaker 1: I've probably seen six or seven total. You don't see

400
00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:06,600
Speaker 1: them off, No you don't, but I walk towards them

401
00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:09,000
Speaker 1: every time. And then something my head goes like, stop

402
00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:13,560
Speaker 1: walking towards this snake, you buffoon. You're going to get

403
00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:15,680
Speaker 1: bit on the ankle and die in the stupidest way.

404
00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:19,280
Speaker 2: It is also interesting that I've never seen a small rattlesnake,

405
00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:21,879
Speaker 2: which is probably good for me, because I think the

406
00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:28,440
Speaker 2: babies sometimes just bite because they don't understand. And every

407
00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:32,320
Speaker 2: rattlesnake I've seen has been huge, like taking up the

408
00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:33,760
Speaker 2: whole width of the trail.

409
00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:37,439
Speaker 1: Very cool, very exciting. I was walking with my friend Erica.

410
00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:39,840
Speaker 1: Shout out to Erica, I wonder if I wonder if

411
00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:42,600
Speaker 1: she listens to bananas. And we were walking Griffith Park

412
00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:45,719
Speaker 1: and I didn't know this about her, but definitely afraid

413
00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:48,600
Speaker 1: of snakes, like it's her single biggest fear. We're just

414
00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:51,800
Speaker 1: doing a normal afternoon friend hike and I saw a

415
00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:55,440
Speaker 1: rattlesnake sixty yards ahead of us, like really far, but

416
00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:57,679
Speaker 1: I could see it moving, and I'm like, oh, And

417
00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:02,120
Speaker 1: I just said to her, Hey, that's all I did. Hey,

418
00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:05,000
Speaker 1: And she goes, is this a snake and started running

419
00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:07,080
Speaker 1: towards where the snake was. She thought it was like

420
00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:08,520
Speaker 1: to our left or right, but I saw it so

421
00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:10,320
Speaker 1: far ahead, and I'm like no, no, no, no, no, come back.

422
00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:12,600
Speaker 1: And then she saw it, screamed and came running back

423
00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:15,480
Speaker 1: to me. But it was just a change in the

424
00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:18,600
Speaker 1: in my voice where I was like, hey, and she

425
00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:22,479
Speaker 1: knew that I spotted something without knowing she was definitely

426
00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:25,680
Speaker 1: afraid of them, just didn't she ran full speed towards it.

427
00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:27,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, so funny, that's pretty great.

428
00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:30,840
Speaker 1: But I take a photo of a snake every time

429
00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:33,680
Speaker 1: I see it, so I guess it's you know, it's

430
00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:36,920
Speaker 1: like some people take photos of their cocktails or their food.

431
00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:40,560
Speaker 1: I take pictures of the one rattlesnake I see every

432
00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:41,080
Speaker 1: three years.

433
00:23:41,119 --> 00:23:44,560
Speaker 2: I think we're gonna I think it's only a matter

434
00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:48,000
Speaker 2: of days or months until we have a snake in

435
00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:50,080
Speaker 2: the house. I'll have loved I.

436
00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:53,800
Speaker 1: Say so much. They're great pets. But you know, also,

437
00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:54,480
Speaker 1: are they great?

438
00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:55,960
Speaker 2: Are they great pets?

439
00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:59,399
Speaker 1: I like a snake. Look, I don't think you should

440
00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:00,720
Speaker 1: have a pets.

441
00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:04,320
Speaker 2: No, I don't think you shouldn't have a pet snake.

442
00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:07,159
Speaker 2: I agree, But when you say they're great pets, I

443
00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:09,760
Speaker 2: don't know about that. I would say a great pet

444
00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:12,879
Speaker 2: is something that comes Greatsy at the door, happy to

445
00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:17,000
Speaker 2: see licks your face, Yeah, nags, its tail. It just

446
00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:20,560
Speaker 2: sits in a coil until you feed it a live animal.

447
00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:23,640
Speaker 1: That is true. They could live a pretty long time.

448
00:24:23,800 --> 00:24:27,879
Speaker 1: Growing up, all my friends had ball pythons, so tall pythons. Yeah, yeah, lots,

449
00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:30,760
Speaker 1: So I grew up just always you know, they would

450
00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:32,480
Speaker 1: be like, hey, make sure if you handle the mice,

451
00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:35,199
Speaker 1: wash your hands first because they'll smell your hands and

452
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:37,280
Speaker 1: bite your hand. And then they were like, oh, it's

453
00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:40,240
Speaker 1: just eight yesterday, so it would be docile and we

454
00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:43,000
Speaker 1: would just hold I would always have ball pythons.

455
00:24:43,119 --> 00:24:45,679
Speaker 2: Yeah, wow, that's interesting.

456
00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:48,160
Speaker 1: More than like constrictors and stuff like that. Yeah, ball

457
00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:51,240
Speaker 1: pythons were all the rage in Maryland. And then one

458
00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:54,800
Speaker 1: kid had a king snake and what's a feed It's

459
00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:57,359
Speaker 1: a black and white striped snake, but it famously eats

460
00:24:57,400 --> 00:25:00,880
Speaker 1: other snakes, which is very disturbing. So we would go

461
00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:04,280
Speaker 1: catch ringnecks and garter snakes and ribbon snakes and he

462
00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:06,719
Speaker 1: would feed them corn snakes and he would feed it

463
00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:08,800
Speaker 1: to the bigger king snake. And the first time I

464
00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:12,000

468
00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:25,239

Speaker 1: unnatural death in a tank in a bedroom where guys

470

504
00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:34,919
Speaker 2: If it's if it's edited only edited? Is this written

506
00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:40,600
Speaker 1: We'll find out because that first sentence was stupid.

507
00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:43,200
Speaker 2: It was already stupid, right, dumb.

508
00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:48,040
Speaker 1: Ai is the mediumist in the biz. One such record

509
00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:52,400
Speaker 1: captured global attention when a tie couple in twenty thirteen

510
00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:56,640
Speaker 1: kissed continuously for fifty eight hours and thirty five minutes.

511
00:27:57,200 --> 00:28:05,160
Speaker 2: Fifty questions please answer fold days two full days and change.

512
00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:09,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, the third of a day. The couple has now

513
00:28:09,520 --> 00:28:11,160
Speaker 1: sadly separated.

514
00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:16,720
Speaker 2: Sadly, this seems like a wonderful news.

515
00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:21,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, that seems like a one person had the idea

516
00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:23,560
Speaker 1: and the other one went along with it, and probably

517
00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:26,199
Speaker 1: around our thirty was like, I'm going to divorce this

518
00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:27,879
Speaker 1: person as soon as I can.

519
00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:31,560
Speaker 2: I just want to know how their bodies were situated

520
00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:37,080
Speaker 2: to maintain it for that long. And also, does it

521
00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:43,040
Speaker 2: mean that a like a record holder representative sat and

522
00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:45,640
Speaker 2: watched two people kiss for fifty eight hours.

523
00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:48,760
Speaker 1: There are photos and videos, so maybe it's some combination,

524
00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:51,760
Speaker 1: but I think I think people rotated in and watched

525
00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:54,720
Speaker 1: these two smooch. And who doesn't love a smooch? We

526
00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:56,959
Speaker 1: love we love a smooch on this podcast.

527
00:28:57,120 --> 00:29:00,000
Speaker 2: Oh come on, we're not. We're not anti smooch. That's

528
00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:01,880
Speaker 2: definitely no.

529
00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:05,920
Speaker 1: We are pro smooch on the Bananas podcast. The couple

00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:21,560
Speaker 2: Okay, so did someone did they beat it just for

535

Speaker 2: fun or did someone beat theirs and they had to

536
00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:25,360
Speaker 2: beat the other persons?

537
00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:29,600
Speaker 1: Well, I so with the record, the couple won the

538
00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:35,640
Speaker 1: grand prize of two diamond rings worth one hundred thousand

539
00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:40,600
Speaker 1: bot tie bot, which I listen, I'm not going to

546
00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:04,360
Speaker 1: Not that ain't bad, that's a ain't that's easy money.

547
00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:06,840
Speaker 2: It's like hands on a hard body, but it's lips

548
00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:09,600
Speaker 2: on a soft, soft, soft wet lips.

549
00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:15,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, I uh there. The more you think about it,

550
00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:18,680
Speaker 1: it feels like a Saw movie or it's human centipede

551
00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:20,360
Speaker 1: face to face, is what we're saying.

552
00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:23,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, is there a picture of them kissing?

553
00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:24,000
Speaker 1: Yes?

554
00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:26,760
Speaker 2: Okay, describe their body positions please.

555
00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:33,240
Speaker 1: Pure stiff terror. They're standing, They're standing, Yeah, they're standing

556
00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:35,920
Speaker 1: in the photo and their eyes are closed in the

557
00:30:35,920 --> 00:30:39,600
Speaker 1: photo that I saw, So they maybe they're both very

558
00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:42,680
Speaker 1: good at transcendental meditation and they were just somewhere else.

559
00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:45,840
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, they were just stinging it up.

560
00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:48,520
Speaker 1: So maybe they wanted rings again. I don't know, but

561
00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:50,880
Speaker 1: they broke the record again in twenty thirteen with an

562
00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:54,120
Speaker 1: even longer kiss. This is widely celebrated across the globe.

563
00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:57,120
Speaker 1: Of course it was. I mean, I a lot of

564
00:30:57,160 --> 00:30:59,840
Speaker 1: people think about nine to eleven or the Challenger exploding,

565
00:30:59,840 --> 00:31:03,920
Speaker 1: but I think about twenty thirteen when these two shared

566
00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:07,640
Speaker 1: the longest kiss in the world. However, in a recent

567
00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:14,120
Speaker 1: BBC podcast, Ekechai or Akachai said that they have now separated.

568
00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:16,320
Speaker 1: It is with a heavy heart that we share this

569
00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:17,360
Speaker 1: personal change.

570
00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:21,959
Speaker 2: He said, they separated from the kiss, or separated like

571
00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:23,400
Speaker 2: they're no longer a couple.

572
00:31:23,960 --> 00:31:27,560
Speaker 1: See, that's why we we need Ai not to write this,

573
00:31:27,680 --> 00:31:29,520
Speaker 1: because they mean as a couple.

574
00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:33,680
Speaker 2: Wow, okay, yeah, I think ours deep. We need little

575
00:31:33,720 --> 00:31:34,720
Speaker 2: bit more editing.

576
00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:39,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, a little context here, Orestep. When we're talking three

577
00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:41,240
Speaker 1: and a half days of smoochin and then you say

578
00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:45,080
Speaker 1: they separated, I have a feeling we're gonna better details.

579
00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:47,239
Speaker 2: I don't feeling we're going to find out that our

580
00:31:47,280 --> 00:31:51,320
Speaker 2: steep's last name is learning and it's ours deep is.

581
00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:55,560
Speaker 1: The AI he might be. He'll never hear this, so

582
00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:58,480
Speaker 1: we'll find out. The couple did not share any particular

583
00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:02,160
Speaker 1: reasons for the separation, but acknowledge that their journey was

584
00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:05,880
Speaker 1: filled with cherished moments. Well that's nice a couple. Yeah,

585
00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:08,920
Speaker 1: sometimes just doesn't work out and that's okay.

586
00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:12,160
Speaker 2: Is your life filled with cherished moments, Scottie.

587
00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:14,040
Speaker 1: Oh my god. From when I wake up to when

588
00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:16,680
Speaker 1: I go to bed, it's I'm like a humble doll.

589
00:32:16,760 --> 00:32:19,200
Speaker 1: I'm like, my whole life is just a cabinet of

590
00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:21,600
Speaker 1: humble dolls, and I'm just tucking them all in with

591
00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:27,440
Speaker 1: their little sleepy roalm heads. I can't think of the

592
00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:29,040
Speaker 1: last cherish moment I've had.

593
00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:31,680
Speaker 2: I can't think of the last cherished moment I've had.

594
00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:35,200
Speaker 2: I'm sure I've had cherished moments, but I don't think

595
00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:37,960
Speaker 2: I've ever identified a moment as a cherished moment in

596
00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:41,920
Speaker 2: my life. Maybe that's our goal for next week. Yeah,

597
00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:44,960
Speaker 2: identify a cherish moment. I think that should be every

598
00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:48,560
Speaker 2: identify a cherish moment between now and next week.

599
00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:51,120
Speaker 1: Folks, if you don't know what to toast when you

600
00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:53,720
Speaker 1: go out with your friends, just say Hey to cherished moments.

601
00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:58,200
Speaker 1: If they've remain your friend, then that is a true

602
00:32:58,200 --> 00:32:59,760
Speaker 1: friend that you need to cherish their friendship.

603
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:03,600
Speaker 2: Fish moments is something is is a term only used

604
00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:05,360
Speaker 2: by diamond advertisers.

605
00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:09,080
Speaker 1: I feel like true. That's a great point. The couple

606
00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:12,040
Speaker 1: said that they continue to share a mutual respect for

607
00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:15,800
Speaker 1: each other despite the separation. And with this, the fans,

608
00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:20,040
Speaker 1: their fans, you know, all those fans and people grotesquely

609
00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:23,280
Speaker 1: kissing their partner for over two days. Yeah, are left

610
00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:25,600
Speaker 1: with the bittersweet memory of the record and the love

611
00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:30,560
Speaker 1: that once captured the imagination of millions. Yeah does it? Yeah?

612
00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:33,160
Speaker 2: It does it? Here's I have so many questions. So

613
00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:36,760
Speaker 2: they're standing in the photo, I mean fifty eight hours.

614
00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:40,440
Speaker 2: They gotta shit, they gotta piss, they gotta eat right,

615
00:33:40,920 --> 00:33:44,360
Speaker 2: or they do or they were they just not doing

616
00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:46,680

618
00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:51,880
Speaker 2: so many questions? Or do they drink together? Does a

619
00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:55,480
Speaker 2: tube come in and they split the water between each

620
00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:56,920
Speaker 2: mouth with their tongues?

621
00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:01,600
Speaker 1: Great? All wonderful. So you know what, I take it back.

622
00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:06,040
Speaker 1: It does capture the imagination because we're imagining all of

623
00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:10,319
Speaker 1: the different ways that this was terrible. Yeah. Interesting, And

624
00:34:10,640 --> 00:34:13,879
Speaker 1: I think to compliment your your thoughts, the Guinness World

625
00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:17,080
Speaker 1: Record has now been replaced, so it's no longer longest

626
00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:21,400
Speaker 1: kiss World record. Now it is the longest kissing marathon.

627
00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:25,640
Speaker 1: The reason in a post, Ginnis said, we did this

628
00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:30,320
Speaker 1: because the competition has become too dangerous and some of

629
00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:33,920
Speaker 1: the rules conflicted with our current updated policies. There have

630
00:34:33,920 --> 00:34:39,040
Speaker 1: been several attempts of kissing contest competitors suffering the ill

631
00:34:39,080 --> 00:34:42,000
Speaker 1: effects during previous record attempts. So I think, to your point,

632
00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:43,960
Speaker 1: I don't think they were eating or drinking. I think

633
00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:49,400
Speaker 1: people were malnourishing themselves while smooching hard for two days.

634
00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:55,239
Speaker 2: Oh my god. I mean, there's so many things that

635
00:34:56,160 --> 00:35:01,480
Speaker 2: sound terrible about this, and not a single sounds romantic.

636
00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:04,640
Speaker 2: Not a single one sounds romantic. It almost seems like

637
00:35:04,719 --> 00:35:08,799
Speaker 2: it's driven out of a desperation for the ring, for

638
00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:09,480
Speaker 2: the rings.

639
00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:15,040
Speaker 1: They Yeah, maybe they wanted those diamond rings and then

640
00:35:15,120 --> 00:35:17,239
Speaker 1: they sold them and had a nice trip where they

641
00:35:17,760 --> 00:35:19,800
Speaker 1: slept in separate beds and didn't look or talk to

642
00:35:19,880 --> 00:35:22,799
Speaker 1: each other. They they were like, I got it. I

643
00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:27,160
Speaker 1: understand somebody once told me that American football, NFL football,

644
00:35:27,400 --> 00:35:30,400
Speaker 1: that the reason people enjoy it is it's from the

645
00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:33,840
Speaker 1: moment the ball leaves the quarterback's hand until it hits

646
00:35:34,080 --> 00:35:38,319
Speaker 1: the receiver's hands, and in that space of time all

647
00:35:38,440 --> 00:35:41,479
Speaker 1: the feeling of hope and that we want something great

648
00:35:41,480 --> 00:35:44,759
Speaker 1: to happen, or maybe something battle happened. The anticipation of

649
00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:46,919
Speaker 1: when the ball leaves the quarterbacks hand until it's caught

650
00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:51,520
Speaker 1: either by the offensive defense is what makes football thrilling.

651
00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:53,920
Speaker 1: That's the main thing that draws people to it, which

652
00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:55,440
Speaker 1: is interesting if you think about it.

653
00:35:56,400 --> 00:35:59,479
Speaker 2: Also, it's such a small small part of the game.

654
00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:03,080
Speaker 1: They run it a lot. There's kicking, there's punting, all

655
00:36:03,160 --> 00:36:04,880
Speaker 1: there's all sorts of things that can go sideways. But

656
00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:07,319
Speaker 1: I understand, I do understand the it's the hope and

657
00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:12,200
Speaker 1: the anticipation that something great might happen. In similar way,

658
00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:15,320
Speaker 1: I think the moment they start kissing and the moment

659
00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:18,799
Speaker 1: they stop kissing, Yeah, are the only interesting parts of

660
00:36:18,840 --> 00:36:22,480
Speaker 1: this entire thing. Oh yeah, I think the middle is disgusting.

661
00:36:23,480 --> 00:36:26,160
Speaker 1: It's horrific, disgusting. It is a saw a movie.

662
00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:30,480
Speaker 2: And I always think about whenever I hear about these

663
00:36:30,600 --> 00:36:33,839
Speaker 2: kind of you know Guinness World Records. I always think

664
00:36:33,840 --> 00:36:38,440
Speaker 2: about the marathon. Do you remember the Dell Close Memorial Marathon.

665
00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:40,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, I went to several of them. I'm sure I

666
00:36:40,560 --> 00:36:41,719
Speaker 1: saw you perform at some of them.

667
00:36:41,800 --> 00:36:45,479
Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely. It was so this was back in the day,

668
00:36:46,680 --> 00:36:51,160
Speaker 2: late nineties, early two thousand's UCB New York City. Maybe

669
00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:54,239
Speaker 2: they still do it. I doubt they do, but it

670
00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:57,719
Speaker 2: was seventy two hours of improv NonStop.

671
00:36:58,239 --> 00:36:58,719
Speaker 1: Yeah.

672
00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:02,600
Speaker 2: So you get an hour long time slot and then

673
00:37:02,719 --> 00:37:05,000
Speaker 2: you would like show up and do your thing and

674
00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:07,560
Speaker 2: we it would always be I would always get a

675
00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:09,680
Speaker 2: time slot at like four in the morning or five

676
00:37:09,719 --> 00:37:14,200
Speaker 2: in the morning. And that feeling, that vibe when you

677
00:37:14,280 --> 00:37:19,160
Speaker 2: walk in Sunday morning at five a four thirty in

678
00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:23,279
Speaker 2: the morning, where there's one to two people in the

679
00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:26,760
Speaker 2: audience and you're just doing it just for the sake

680
00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:31,040
Speaker 2: of doing it. There's not no joy, it's just going

681
00:37:31,120 --> 00:37:34,080
Speaker 2: through the motions. That is what I think about whenever

682
00:37:34,120 --> 00:37:38,400
Speaker 2: I think of any you know, long distance or long

683
00:37:38,960 --> 00:37:41,840
Speaker 2: haul worldwide marathon.

684
00:37:42,920 --> 00:37:44,719
Speaker 1: Durrance, it's gross.

685
00:37:44,800 --> 00:37:46,439
Speaker 2: The whole thing's gross.

686
00:37:46,960 --> 00:37:49,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, I definitely got you know, those calls or emails

687
00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:51,719
Speaker 1: or texts are like, hey, our show starts at four

688
00:37:51,880 --> 00:37:54,520
Speaker 1: Will you come? And me being nuwde to New York

689
00:37:54,560 --> 00:37:57,440
Speaker 1: and wanting to infiltrate the comedy scene. I went to

690
00:37:57,480 --> 00:37:59,640
Speaker 1: a lot of those things and often it would be

691
00:37:59,680 --> 00:38:04,719
Speaker 1: me and you know, six seven other people, and totally

692
00:38:06,120 --> 00:38:09,160
Speaker 1: I'm glad it was there. I think people would be like, thanks,

693
00:38:09,520 --> 00:38:12,680
Speaker 1: you showed up, and then I would never do that now,

694
00:38:12,920 --> 00:38:16,480
Speaker 1: Oh no, with age and success, it's like those days.

695
00:38:16,719 --> 00:38:20,120
Speaker 1: That's a young man's game. When you're twenty three and

696
00:38:20,160 --> 00:38:22,359
Speaker 1: you just want people to know who you are, you

697
00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:26,120
Speaker 1: go do a lot of dumb shit. But he you know,

698
00:38:26,239 --> 00:38:28,120
Speaker 1: at that time, we all thought improv was going to

699
00:38:28,239 --> 00:38:28,880
Speaker 1: change the world.

700
00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:32,879
Speaker 2: I really did. I really like had dranking the kool aid.

701
00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:41,680
Speaker 1: It's no problem.

702
00:38:38,239 --> 00:38:40,840
Speaker 2: Here it is. Cia found the arc of the Covenant

703
00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:41,920

730
00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:57,319
Speaker 1: I've never written to a podcast before, but last week

731
00:39:57,360 --> 00:39:59,719
Speaker 1: I listened to One Thousand Ways to Invade a Home

732
00:39:59,760 --> 00:40:02,319
Speaker 1: WHI it was a bananas episode and wanted to give

733
00:40:02,320 --> 00:40:04,760
Speaker 1: the Banana Boys a thumbs up. This is super mushy

734
00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:08,520
Speaker 1: and saptacular. That's okay, so were we Yeah, we love it.

735
00:40:08,560 --> 00:40:12,280
Speaker 1: We love a smooch, we love a saptacular. But Scotty said,

736
00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:15,400
Speaker 1: I'm a huge fan of endings, and then you guys

737
00:40:15,440 --> 00:40:18,960
Speaker 1: both had such a positive perspective around Kurt's ending of

738
00:40:19,040 --> 00:40:21,720
Speaker 1: the Hot Tub Show that it gave me the courage

739
00:40:21,719 --> 00:40:25,480
Speaker 1: to make some much needed changes in my life. Nothing humongous,

740
00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:28,839
Speaker 1: but I now look at changes with less fear and

741
00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:30,920
Speaker 1: with more opportunity in mind.

742
00:40:31,120 --> 00:40:33,600

Speaker 1: Kay, thumbs up for taking some chances. And it is

744
00:40:36,920 --> 00:40:41,160
Speaker 1: true I do love an ending, maybe more than I should,

745
00:40:41,480 --> 00:40:45,000
Speaker 1: but I do. I think it's wonderful. That's them all.

746
00:40:45,120 --> 00:40:46,000
Speaker 2: That's all the thumbs up.

747

754
00:41:05,960 --> 00:41:06,560
Speaker 2: Cia?

755
00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:08,040
Speaker 1: The Covenant?

756
00:41:08,160 --> 00:41:15,799
Speaker 2: Yeah, this was and the Independent Oh the Ladies by

757
00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:16,800
Speaker 2: James Liddell.

758
00:41:17,840 --> 00:41:18,200
Speaker 1: Thank you.

759
00:41:18,280 --> 00:41:21,359
Speaker 2: James. Cia found the arc of the Covenant by using

760
00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:26,719
Speaker 2: psychics declassified files. Claim. Okay, so this is okay to

761
00:41:26,840 --> 00:41:30,279
Speaker 2: classified CIA documents claim that the mystical arc of the

762
00:41:30,280 --> 00:41:32,640
Speaker 2: Covenant was located by a psychic decades ago in the

763
00:41:32,640 --> 00:41:35,400
Speaker 2: Middle East. As part of one of the intelligence agencies

764
00:41:35,480 --> 00:41:39,120
Speaker 2: experimental secret projects in the nineteen eighties, the Ark of

765
00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:41,840
Speaker 2: the Covenant was thrust back into the spotlight as globe

766
00:41:41,840 --> 00:41:46,000
Speaker 2: trotting archaeologist, of course, raiders of the lost Arc. Then

767
00:41:46,040 --> 00:41:48,160
Speaker 2: they explain what the arc of the Covenant is. ARCA,

768
00:41:48,200 --> 00:41:50,920
Speaker 2: the Covenant holds the Ten Commandments. That's the idea of it.

769
00:41:51,600 --> 00:41:51,799
Speaker 4: Uh.

770
00:41:51,840 --> 00:41:55,120
Speaker 2: The CIA conducted experiments as part of the secret projects

771
00:41:55,200 --> 00:41:58,480
Speaker 2: Sun Streak with individuals known as quote remote viewers, a

772
00:41:58,520 --> 00:42:02,640
Speaker 2: type of clairvoyant who claim they could project their consciousness

773
00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:07,400
Speaker 2: to receive information about far away objects. There's no credible

774
00:42:07,440 --> 00:42:11,240
Speaker 2: scientific evidence the remote viewing exists, since generally regarded as pseudoscience.

775
00:42:11,280 --> 00:42:14,960
Speaker 2: That's what the But then there's I mean, it's you

776
00:42:14,960 --> 00:42:18,279
Speaker 2: can look at the actual declassified piece of paper here

777
00:42:18,480 --> 00:42:24,480
Speaker 2: it says Project Sunstreet warning notice intelligence sources and methods involved,

778
00:42:25,120 --> 00:42:31,040
Speaker 2: and then it just has Viewer thirty two attained excellent

779
00:42:31,120 --> 00:42:34,920
Speaker 2: site contact, doing very well with Stage four structure. Viewers

780
00:42:34,960 --> 00:42:38,759
Speaker 2: also exhibits the ability to aol to a minimum need

781
00:42:38,800 --> 00:42:41,759
Speaker 2: to be careful with editing. Rough This does not seem

782
00:42:41,800 --> 00:42:43,600
Speaker 2: to be a problem at the time, just something to

783
00:42:43,680 --> 00:42:46,120
Speaker 2: watch for. I mean the fact that so I read

784
00:42:46,160 --> 00:42:49,279
Speaker 2: this entire book. Have you read Did you read this book?

785
00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:51,400
Speaker 2: John Ronson's The Men Who Stare At Goats?

786
00:42:51,920 --> 00:42:53,239
Speaker 1: No, I'm familiar with it though.

787
00:42:53,320 --> 00:42:57,560
Speaker 2: Oh it is so so good. Everyone go out. It's

788
00:42:57,640 --> 00:43:00,320
Speaker 2: called The Men Who Stare At Goats. They George Clooney

789
00:43:00,360 --> 00:43:03,520
Speaker 2: made a movie based on it. That that that was

790
00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:06,160
Speaker 2: not really what the book is. So the book is

791
00:43:06,200 --> 00:43:13,080
Speaker 2: all about these these programs like mk Ultra programs in

792
00:43:13,160 --> 00:43:18,560
Speaker 2: the CIA during the sixties, seventies and eighties that involved

793
00:43:18,600 --> 00:43:21,640
Speaker 2: like all sorts of looney tune stuff. Like one thing.

794
00:43:21,680 --> 00:43:24,120
Speaker 2: The reason it's called the Menu Steric Goats is that

795
00:43:24,200 --> 00:43:26,839
Speaker 2: like they just kept trying to get people to make

796
00:43:26,880 --> 00:43:29,879
Speaker 2: a goat's hard explode by like looking at it from

797
00:43:29,960 --> 00:43:34,800
Speaker 2: across the room, and it never never happened. It never worked, surprising,

798
00:43:34,880 --> 00:43:37,760
Speaker 2: but it was millions and millions of dollars put.

799
00:43:37,680 --> 00:43:40,120
Speaker 1: In taking acid and stuff right like they would, yeah,

800
00:43:40,160 --> 00:43:42,080
Speaker 1: they would like trip super hard and then stare at

801
00:43:42,080 --> 00:43:43,920
Speaker 1: goats and try to make its heart explode.

802
00:43:44,000 --> 00:43:45,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, but this was a whole part of it. These

803
00:43:45,960 --> 00:43:49,680
Speaker 2: remote viewers were there. Some of them were like quote

804
00:43:49,719 --> 00:43:52,399
Speaker 2: unquote seconds, but these were CIA operatives, so that they

805
00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:55,359
Speaker 2: were uh, they were taken from the military. So these

806
00:43:55,360 --> 00:43:58,520
Speaker 2: were like military guys who would just like go in

807
00:43:58,560 --> 00:44:01,520
Speaker 2: a room and then they were like told, like, this

808
00:44:01,160 --> 00:44:03,800
Speaker 2: is this is the box, like look for a box,

809
00:44:03,920 --> 00:44:06,800
Speaker 2: and then they would just imagine and say this is

810
00:44:06,840 --> 00:44:09,759
Speaker 2: where the box is. And the best part about all

811
00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:11,799
Speaker 2: of it is that it was never they never went

812
00:44:11,840 --> 00:44:14,879
Speaker 2: to go see where the arc was. They're like, here's

813
00:44:14,920 --> 00:44:17,160
Speaker 2: where it is, and then they went to go see it.

814
00:44:17,200 --> 00:44:19,400
Speaker 2: I think the whole point that they were like excited

815
00:44:19,400 --> 00:44:23,080
Speaker 2: about is that they didn't tell the remote viewer that

816
00:44:23,120 --> 00:44:25,359
Speaker 2: it was the Ark of the Covenant. They just said,

817
00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:29,160
Speaker 2: you're looking for a box made of gold and wood. Uh,

818
00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:33,400
Speaker 2: and it inside that container is another container. That's what

819
00:44:33,440 --> 00:44:36,919
Speaker 2: they said. And then they described essentially a scene from

820
00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:40,520
Speaker 2: the Middle East, and then they're like, bing, we got it,

821
00:44:40,840 --> 00:44:45,440
Speaker 2: we did it. Good job, But do they have it.

822
00:44:45,520 --> 00:44:47,680
Speaker 1: I've never seen it. That feels like that would be

823
00:44:47,719 --> 00:44:49,719
Speaker 1: bigger news than two people kissing for two and a

824
00:44:49,760 --> 00:44:52,360
Speaker 1: half days. Yeah, where the hell's the ark? Of the Covenant.

825
00:44:52,400 --> 00:44:53,080
Speaker 1: I want to see it.

826
00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:55,480
Speaker 2: No, they never got it. They never went got it.

827
00:44:55,520 --> 00:44:59,680
Speaker 2: There wasn't enough specific information in the description to actually

828
00:44:59,719 --> 00:45:00,880
Speaker 2: physic located.

829
00:45:02,520 --> 00:45:05,040
Speaker 1: This reminds me of our good friend J. C. Catlin's

830
00:45:05,120 --> 00:45:08,400
Speaker 1: tweet back in the day when Twitter was fun and awesome.

831
00:45:08,440 --> 00:45:09,759
Speaker 1: That was the one that was like, I used to

832
00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:11,840
Speaker 1: think I could control ducks with my mind, but it

833
00:45:11,880 --> 00:45:14,320
Speaker 1: turns out ducks and I have very similar ideas about

834
00:45:14,320 --> 00:45:18,640
Speaker 1: what stuff ducks should do. And it's right, like, if

835
00:45:18,680 --> 00:45:20,640
Speaker 1: you stare there and not go over there, duck, eat that,

836
00:45:20,880 --> 00:45:22,600
Speaker 1: eat that piece of bread, Now jump in the water,

837
00:45:22,680 --> 00:45:24,319
Speaker 1: Now shake your tail, and then you go, that's just

838
00:45:24,320 --> 00:45:26,400
Speaker 1: what ducks are up to. And part of this is

839
00:45:26,440 --> 00:45:30,000
Speaker 1: like I'm picturing a box inside of another box. It's

840
00:45:30,040 --> 00:45:33,960
Speaker 1: like if you've looked at television, movies, magazines, and then

841
00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:37,080
Speaker 1: your own personal life experience, and you sat down and

842
00:45:37,080 --> 00:45:39,640
Speaker 1: close your eyes and started imagining things you could put

843
00:45:39,880 --> 00:45:41,680
Speaker 1: and you have ten people doing it, somebody is going

844
00:45:41,760 --> 00:45:43,760
Speaker 1: to be right. It's in the closet up to the left,

845
00:45:43,880 --> 00:45:46,840
Speaker 1: under a pair of old shoes, like, yeah, well this

846
00:45:46,960 --> 00:45:47,920
Speaker 1: is just imagining.

847
00:45:48,040 --> 00:45:51,400
Speaker 2: This is what they this is what they were told.

848
00:45:51,600 --> 00:45:54,640
Speaker 2: The person was told target is a container. This container

849
00:45:54,680 --> 00:45:57,080
Speaker 2: has and this is all quotes. This container has another

850
00:45:57,120 --> 00:45:59,600
Speaker 2: container inside of it. The target is fashioned of wood, gold,

851
00:45:59,640 --> 00:46:04,200
Speaker 2: and silk, similar in shape to a coffin, and decorated

852
00:46:04,239 --> 00:46:08,080
Speaker 2: with a seraphim. Okay, so that's what they told the person.

853
00:46:09,800 --> 00:46:14,600
Speaker 2: I'm like, it's nineteen eighty eight. Yeah, it's not that

854
00:46:14,800 --> 00:46:18,560
Speaker 2: long ago that Raiders of the Lost Star game out.

855
00:46:19,000 --> 00:46:21,959
Speaker 1: It was really close to it seven years later.

856
00:46:22,080 --> 00:46:24,640
Speaker 2: It's in the front of your brain. It's decorated with

857
00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:27,480
Speaker 2: a seraphim. I mean like and then they're just like

858
00:46:29,360 --> 00:46:32,200
Speaker 2: they draw and then the person draws, sah, it means.

859
00:46:32,040 --> 00:46:35,279
Speaker 1: It's on fire. Right, isn't seraphim a fire thing? I

860
00:46:35,320 --> 00:46:39,280
Speaker 1: thought it was seraphim? Was you you melted something with fire?

861
00:46:39,480 --> 00:46:40,319
Speaker 1: But I don't know.

862
00:46:40,320 --> 00:46:44,600
Speaker 2: Maybe seraphim is it's got wings and it's got it's

863
00:46:44,680 --> 00:46:46,720
Speaker 2: like a it's a mythical beast.

864
00:46:47,120 --> 00:46:51,720
Speaker 1: Oh okay, yeah yeah, yeah, okay, Oh, then it's definitely true.

865
00:46:52,040 --> 00:46:53,000
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah yeah.

866
00:46:53,040 --> 00:46:55,279
Speaker 2: So then the person who's just said that there is

867
00:46:55,320 --> 00:46:59,200
Speaker 2: an aspect of spirituality, information, lessons, and the historical knowledge

868
00:46:59,239 --> 00:47:02,040
Speaker 2: far beyond what we know, or if you're number thirty

869
00:47:02,040 --> 00:47:05,040
Speaker 2: two continued the target is protected by entities and can

870
00:47:05,080 --> 00:47:07,839
Speaker 2: only be opened by those who are authorized to do so.

871
00:47:08,200 --> 00:47:10,440
Speaker 2: This container will not cannot be opened until the time

872
00:47:10,520 --> 00:47:12,960
Speaker 2: is deemed correct. I mean literally, it's just him, a

873
00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:17,080
Speaker 2: person remembering details from the Raiders of the Lost Ar exactly.

874
00:47:17,360 --> 00:47:22,160
Speaker 2: Individuals opening the container by prying or striking are destroyed

875
00:47:22,160 --> 00:47:24,720
Speaker 2: by the container's protectors through the use of a power

876
00:47:24,840 --> 00:47:29,680
Speaker 2: unknown to us. He's just it's just grown adults sitting

877
00:47:29,719 --> 00:47:32,759
Speaker 2: in a room and one person describing a scene from

878
00:47:32,800 --> 00:47:36,120
Speaker 2: Indiana Jones. Yeah, and the other person writing it down

879
00:47:36,160 --> 00:47:41,520
Speaker 2: and classifying it as a top secret information. It's so cood.

880
00:47:41,640 --> 00:47:43,719
Speaker 2: I love it. I love the military. Thank you so

881
00:47:43,800 --> 00:47:44,600
Speaker 2: much for what you do.

882
00:47:45,320 --> 00:47:48,359
Speaker 1: Yeah. Pre Internet, it was so easy just to say

883
00:47:48,400 --> 00:47:53,000
Speaker 1: things confidently and nobody could prove you wrong. And if

884
00:47:53,040 --> 00:47:54,680
Speaker 1: you said I swear to God, they were like, well

885
00:47:54,719 --> 00:47:56,600
Speaker 1: he swear to God? Or I swear my mother's life.

886
00:47:56,640 --> 00:47:58,880
Speaker 1: Then you go like, damn, they must really mean this.

887
00:47:59,080 --> 00:48:06,439
Speaker 1: They must be great. Cobra's out there. Seraphim are supernatural beings. Interesting. Yeah,

888
00:48:06,440 --> 00:48:09,239
Speaker 1: ill Seraphim from Sister Act. That will be Goldberg movie

889
00:48:09,239 --> 00:48:12,640
Speaker 1: because I think she sings about seraphim and like ave

890
00:48:12,800 --> 00:48:15,160
Speaker 1: Marie or something. Yeah, I want this movie.

891
00:48:15,160 --> 00:48:19,160
Speaker 2: By the way, I want to see exactly what Saraphim

892
00:48:19,960 --> 00:48:23,480
Speaker 2: the highest in Christian archaeology. The Seraphim are the highest

893
00:48:23,560 --> 00:48:29,479
Speaker 2: ranking celestial beings in the hierarchy of angels. Their four

894
00:48:29,560 --> 00:48:33,239
Speaker 2: winged cherubim they're painted blue and the six wing oh

895
00:48:33,360 --> 00:48:37,640
Speaker 2: six wings Seraphim are red, symbolizing fire. Okay, there you go.

896
00:48:37,719 --> 00:48:41,759
Speaker 1: I thought it was fire. Yeah, I'm an idiot. That's fun.

897
00:48:41,880 --> 00:48:44,040
Speaker 2: It's a seraphim angel, you.

898
00:48:44,000 --> 00:48:49,759
Speaker 1: Know, speaking of wings. Oh yeah, guys, guyles non binary pier're.

899
00:48:49,480 --> 00:48:51,320
Speaker 2: Talking about Red Bull? Are you gonna talk about talking.

900
00:48:51,160 --> 00:48:53,279
Speaker 1: About Red Bull? No? God, I've already done that too

901
00:48:53,360 --> 00:48:57,480
Speaker 1: much on this podcast. It is baseball season and this

902
00:48:57,640 --> 00:48:59,880
Speaker 1: is just a friendly reminder to those who have it

903
00:49:00,360 --> 00:49:04,560
Speaker 1: or have you. Go on YouTube and search for Scott

904
00:49:04,680 --> 00:49:09,640
Speaker 1: Stap Marlins Will Soar. Last year I mentioned this. It

905
00:49:09,760 --> 00:49:12,320
Speaker 1: is one of my favorite songs, but when baseball season

906
00:49:12,360 --> 00:49:15,560
Speaker 1: kicks off every year, I revisit it myself and for

907
00:49:15,640 --> 00:49:17,920
Speaker 1: those who don't know what I'm talking about. Scott's Stapp

908
00:49:18,160 --> 00:49:22,680
Speaker 1: was the singer of the band Creed. Whether you like

909
00:49:22,760 --> 00:49:25,439
Speaker 1: them or hate them or just laugh at them every

910
00:49:25,440 --> 00:49:28,520
Speaker 1: time you hear them, which is what I do. And

911
00:49:28,719 --> 00:49:31,360
Speaker 1: when he started, you got kicked out of the band.

912
00:49:31,840 --> 00:49:34,680
Speaker 1: Things weren't quite working out in his personal life. I

913
00:49:34,719 --> 00:49:38,759
Speaker 1: think he saw cash grab opportunity as a Floridian to

914
00:49:39,000 --> 00:49:43,800
Speaker 1: sing an anthem of his own making for the Florida Marlins,

915
00:49:43,840 --> 00:49:49,000
Speaker 1: making not commissioned an uncommissioned song called Marlins Will Soar.

916
00:49:50,120 --> 00:49:54,640
Speaker 1: It has baseball sound effects, but ultimately it's mostly like

917
00:49:54,680 --> 00:49:58,520
Speaker 1: a bad Creed song where he just it's like he

918
00:49:58,640 --> 00:50:03,480
Speaker 1: googled baseball term monology and then just start saying them

919
00:50:03,520 --> 00:50:07,359
Speaker 1: as lyrics. The first lyric is let's play ball, It's

920
00:50:07,440 --> 00:50:12,160
Speaker 1: game day, and then it gets so good and it

921
00:50:12,200 --> 00:50:12,720
Speaker 1: was never.

922
00:50:12,600 --> 00:50:14,480
Speaker 2: Used by the Marlins.

923
00:50:14,600 --> 00:50:17,040
Speaker 1: I just to this day, I don't think it has,

924
00:50:17,160 --> 00:50:20,759
Speaker 1: which is a major loss because it's so stupid. They

925
00:50:20,800 --> 00:50:23,160
Speaker 1: should start every game when the Marlins run out into

926
00:50:23,200 --> 00:50:25,840
Speaker 1: the field, they should have a flying dolphin or just

927
00:50:25,920 --> 00:50:30,000
Speaker 1: a seraphim flying over the crowd, and they should play

928
00:50:30,200 --> 00:50:33,600
Speaker 1: Marlins Will sort. I encourage everyone to take two minutes,

929
00:50:33,880 --> 00:50:37,839
Speaker 1: very short song. It doesn't have a third vorse verse.

930
00:50:38,800 --> 00:50:41,960
Speaker 1: Marlins Will source Scott's stap Treat yourself. If you're in

931
00:50:42,000 --> 00:50:44,239
Speaker 1: a band, cover it this week at the local bar

932
00:50:44,320 --> 00:50:48,880
Speaker 1: that you please rock out to it all. Leave this one.

933
00:50:49,440 --> 00:50:51,919
Speaker 1: It's a good one. Sean Fister sent this in. Maybe

934
00:50:51,920 --> 00:50:54,839
Speaker 1: I'll do it on our next episode. Two scientists have

935
00:50:54,920 --> 00:50:59,160
Speaker 1: developed sensors that can heal bones in weeks not months.

936
00:51:00,120 --> 00:51:05,399
Speaker 1: Oh pretty interesting, I'm interested, Barns for Upworthy. That's real.

937
00:51:05,760 --> 00:51:09,840
Speaker 1: University of organ scientists have created potential medical breakthrough or

938
00:51:09,880 --> 00:51:13,759
Speaker 1: a mend through the research of created tiny implants that

939
00:51:13,760 --> 00:51:17,120
Speaker 1: can help speed up the healing process of mending broken bones.

940
00:51:17,440 --> 00:51:20,240
Speaker 1: If you've suffered a broken bone, you know, proper healing

941
00:51:20,280 --> 00:51:25,759
Speaker 1: blah blah blah takes a long time. These will encourage

942
00:51:26,040 --> 00:51:31,000
Speaker 1: bones to build strength quicker and heal faster. What are these?

943
00:51:31,120 --> 00:51:34,200
Speaker 2: What are they? They are they get injected into you?

944
00:51:36,120 --> 00:51:37,239
Speaker 2: Are they nanobots?

945
00:51:37,440 --> 00:51:41,160
Speaker 1: The implants significantly improve the healing time for broken femurs

946
00:51:41,200 --> 00:51:43,839
Speaker 1: and labrats, cutting down on the healing time from four

947
00:51:43,840 --> 00:51:46,759
Speaker 1: to six months down to eight weeks. Okay, so that's

948
00:51:46,800 --> 00:51:50,640
Speaker 1: two months. So yeah, it's funny that they would do that. Yeah,

949
00:51:50,680 --> 00:51:56,799
Speaker 1: bone sensors, and they I'm trying to look at the

950
00:51:56,840 --> 00:51:58,719
Speaker 1: exact thing that they say they are. They just keep

951
00:51:58,760 --> 00:51:59,880
Speaker 1: seeing bone sensors.

952
00:52:00,160 --> 00:52:02,000
Speaker 2: Classic bone sensors.

953
00:52:01,800 --> 00:52:04,719
Speaker 1: Small implants with sensors that provide data in real time

954
00:52:04,760 --> 00:52:07,400
Speaker 1: to the injury site to help better determine if the

955
00:52:07,440 --> 00:52:11,279
Speaker 1: bone needs more resistance rehab or if it has been overworked.

956
00:52:11,360 --> 00:52:15,719
Speaker 2: Oh okay, so you can just so useful monitoring. Okay, right, right,

957
00:52:16,160 --> 00:52:18,640
Speaker 2: so you're like got to do things to it to

958
00:52:18,760 --> 00:52:24,200
Speaker 2: help it go. But okay, that's great. Congratulations, Yeah, congratulations

959
00:52:24,280 --> 00:52:25,680
Speaker 2: specifically to those mice.

960
00:52:26,440 --> 00:52:30,359
Speaker 1: Congratulating those are out there just jogging on treadmills and

961
00:52:31,320 --> 00:52:36,120
Speaker 1: taking pilloxing classes and getting fit twenty twenty five. We're

962
00:52:36,160 --> 00:52:38,040
Speaker 1: taking care of our bodies so our bodies could take

963
00:52:38,080 --> 00:52:38,400
Speaker 1: care of it.

964
00:52:38,520 --> 00:52:41,480
Speaker 2: So happy you said polloxing. You said ploxing last night too.

965
00:52:42,440 --> 00:52:45,200
Speaker 2: I was like the first time I heard it, and

966
00:52:45,760 --> 00:52:47,520
Speaker 2: this is the second time I'm be hearing.

967
00:52:47,320 --> 00:52:49,640
Speaker 1: It and all, and I've never done it and never will.

968
00:52:49,840 --> 00:52:54,120
Speaker 1: That's my promise to you. I don't combine things.

969
00:52:54,880 --> 00:52:58,040
Speaker 2: Well, folks, that has been bananas. Thank you so much, Scottie.

970
00:52:58,480 --> 00:53:01,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, so thank you, KURTI Beeth, thanks to exactly right.

971
00:53:01,320 --> 00:53:04,800
Speaker 1: I heart Katie Levine, our producer, Lisa Maggott, our full

972
