Speaker 1: Today Um, Chris Evans was quoted in the news as
Speaker 1: saying that he is laser focused on finding someone to
Speaker 1: spend the rest of his life with. So, Diana, I'm ready,
Speaker 1: I'm ready. So what's what's the thing that receives a
Speaker 1: laser called that's you? I don't know what. Actually, it's
Speaker 1: a good question. I don't know where Steve's a laser,
Speaker 1: but I'm ready er right through you. It's like, I'm
Speaker 1: surely I'm not the only one. I think if maybe
Speaker 1: he's too laser focused and he's not spreading his his
Speaker 1: his gaze wide enough, maybe my guess would be that
Speaker 1: the problem that Chris Evans is having is not lack
Speaker 1: of options, it's too many options. Yeah, it's like pet,
Speaker 1: It's like when you stand paralyzed in the cereal aisle
Speaker 1: and you just can't kick because there's just so many
Speaker 1: says tire aisle, and you got to go up and down,
Speaker 1: up and down, and you end up with cheerios all
Speaker 1: over again. The best solution settle for oates. This is
Speaker 1: why nobody wants us to read their commercial. So Chris
Speaker 1: Evans and a bullet cheerios um sounds like it sounds
Speaker 1: like a Friday night, he'll find his perfect series, you know, yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1: You get the impression that he's a guy who really
Speaker 1: cares about the connection. He's not looking for somebody fake.
Speaker 1: What am I doing? What? I'm not here like posting
Speaker 1: up for Chris Evans trying to help him out. Chris
Speaker 1: Evans could really use my help in the romance department.
Speaker 1: I mean, technically, I guess I've been more successful than him.
Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, in that department. It could be argued, Well,
Speaker 1: I'll add it to the long long list I have
Speaker 1: of things I've been better at than Chris Evans. Why
Speaker 1: are you laughing? So that wasn't at all you know,
Speaker 1: you laughed so hard that your head went down on
Speaker 1: the table and no one could even hear it. What's
Speaker 1: so funny? I'm sure that there are plenty of things
Speaker 1: you're better at than Chris Evans. Yeah, I I I
Speaker 1: don't know, and wouldn't dare to guess. I couldn't assume.
Speaker 1: All right, Chris, al right, everybody, we can move on
Speaker 1: from this. Well, welcome back to the show. Yeah. Hey,
Speaker 1: I'm Eli, I'm Diana. We never introduced ourselves anymore. You
Speaker 1: might be a first time listener, Welcome, hey. Last week
Speaker 1: we talked about the lovers of tara Well and how
Speaker 1: that led to a Guinness World Record being set in
Speaker 1: the city of tar Well in Spain, where a thousand
Speaker 1: and fifteen people lined up and they all passed a
Speaker 1: smooch from one face to the next down the line
Speaker 1: in the super spreader event of the century. But that
Speaker 1: got us Curry, is you know what other Guinness World
Speaker 1: records in the romance department are out there? You know
Speaker 1: there's gotta be more. Yeah, they couldn't just be the one.
Speaker 1: And we looked, and there are there are some very
Speaker 1: good ones, and we thought these all fell under the
Speaker 1: ridiculous romance umbrella a hefty handful. Actually, I don't even
Speaker 1: think this will be the only episode where we do this,
Speaker 1: because we just dug up some There are more. But
Speaker 1: I say that we go ahead and take a look
Speaker 1: at some of these record breaking smooches and weddings and
Speaker 1: other various romantic activities in this week's episode. Let's do
Speaker 1: some record break in and pay their French come listen well,
Speaker 1: Eli and Diana got some stories to tell. There's no matchmaking,
Speaker 1: no romantic tips. It's just about ridiculous relationships a lover,
Speaker 1: it might be any type of person at all, and
Speaker 1: abstract concept are a concrete wall. But if there's a story,
Speaker 1: were the second Glance Ridiculous Rolevance a production of I
Speaker 1: Heart Radio? All right? Before we get started last time
Speaker 1: on Our Lovers of Tar, what episode we asked y'all
Speaker 1: a question, Well, Diana had a question more specifically, I
Speaker 1: guess I did about polyamory, right. I was wondering about
Speaker 1: about jealousy and feeling possessive. And I know that it's
Speaker 1: a lot to do with communication, and that's in agreements
Speaker 1: of course, and all that kind of stuff, of course,
Speaker 1: but of course it's pretty natural emotions. So I was like,
Speaker 1: I mean, surely, even with all of that, if you
Speaker 1: do all your groundwork and it's all laid out and
Speaker 1: everything's agreed upon and all's well, you still might feel
Speaker 1: a little twinge. Maybe I just wondered, sure, Well, we
Speaker 1: got a message from our friend that we're going to
Speaker 1: hear in today's Answering Machine. Just answer the question. Elanni
Speaker 1: Papadopoulos messages back on Instagram again and Elanny says, you
Speaker 1: asked about jealousy and polyamorous relationships, and in my experience,
Speaker 1: it's very individual for me. It one depends on how
Speaker 1: the additional person views the relationship. I need to be
Speaker 1: the priority, but whoever else my partner is with doesn't
Speaker 1: bother me as long as the third party understands that
Speaker 1: I do know people though, where it depends on the
Speaker 1: mood or is only okay if the partner is there too,
Speaker 1: or if it's only okay where it happens outside of
Speaker 1: the shared living space. Moral of the story is everyone
Speaker 1: is different and communication is key words to live by. Well,
Speaker 1: that's very true. Yeah, that is very true. I agree.
Speaker 1: I mean that that makes a lot of sense to me.
Speaker 1: You know, it's all about everyone being on the same page. Sure, right,
Speaker 1: what I get? Yeah, I mean I guess, And you know,
Speaker 1: there's really no better answer than everybody's different. So of course,
Speaker 1: if you're going to ask ten different people who are
Speaker 1: all polyamorous, they are all going to tell you, yes,
Speaker 1: I get jealous. No, I don't write. You know, it's
Speaker 1: never been jealous, No problem for me. I'm sure you're
Speaker 1: going to get many, many different answers. But yeah, I
Speaker 1: think you're right. I think I think jealousy. It's just
Speaker 1: how it affects you. For some people, it's like, this
Speaker 1: is something I just feel right now, and it's all right.
Speaker 1: I won't feel it tomorrow or in a couple of days.
Speaker 1: I'll be fine now worried about it. That's that's my feeling,
Speaker 1: and I shouldn't let it affect the other person's activities.
Speaker 1: And for other people, it's like, this is a real
Speaker 1: feeling for me, and it does matter, and it's a priority,
Speaker 1: and I'm jealous and therefore I can't be happy with
Speaker 1: someone who's going out and making me jealous. And that's
Speaker 1: all about the agreement that you come to. Sure. Funny enough,
Speaker 1: I'm actually working on an episode right now. They actually
Speaker 1: teach courses on jealousy and stuff like that and how
Speaker 1: to live in a group setting and so on, so
Speaker 1: they have a lot to say about it as well.
Speaker 1: So I'm excited to get into that in future. Little
Speaker 1: teaser for an upcoming Alright, alright, well, today we're talking
Speaker 1: World records being set in the in the romance and
Speaker 1: love and romance department. Right, some of these stories are
Speaker 1: not chock full of details, because honestly, the Guinness World
Speaker 1: Records website doesn't do a ton of documentation beyond just
Speaker 1: saying who broke what record? And when that's too bad?
Speaker 1: I feel like you could have a good story, like
Speaker 1: look at Lori over here. She went to the primary
Speaker 1: school in this place, and now look at her. I mean,
Speaker 1: they leave that up to the journalists, I think, because honestly,
Speaker 1: it seems like the Guinness World Records group hands out
Speaker 1: so many damn records, like there's a record for everything.
Speaker 1: So they like, I got time to get into the
Speaker 1: biographies of every one of these people. A guy who
Speaker 1: brought the record for the most cups stacked, uh, you know,
Speaker 1: on top of a bridge during a sandstorm. I don't
Speaker 1: have time to tell that guy's whole story. We have
Speaker 1: to wait for Rain Wilson to come along. Yeah, a
Speaker 1: little documentary season of his documentary right. Well, you know,
Speaker 1: in fact, that's getting me thinking, I really wanted to
Speaker 1: know more about this whole Guinness thing and where it
Speaker 1: came from. So I said, we put all these record
Speaker 1: breakers on ice real quick and just take a quick
Speaker 1: fling with history. Well who knew? Now, I never really
Speaker 1: knew anything about Guinness World Records, Like is it the beer?
Speaker 1: Is it related to Guinness? Is it tied to any
Speaker 1: government agency. Is this like the w h O Is
Speaker 1: it like the the Illuminati their sinister panels? Are they
Speaker 1: drinking baby's blood? They were year round? Right? What is happening?
Speaker 1: The aliens watching humans? Okay, speculation station. The entire Guinness
Speaker 1: World Records organization is run by an alien species. That's
Speaker 1: just testing our limits. Let's see how far we can go. Well,
Speaker 1: did some digging and it turns out that this all
Speaker 1: started in nineteen fifty four in County Wexford, Ireland, at
Speaker 1: a shooting party. So you know, all these rich people
Speaker 1: get together and they hunt foxes or or or try
Speaker 1: to outwit birds or whatever it is that they do
Speaker 1: with these things. And an Englishman named Sir Hugh Beaver,
Speaker 1: which sounds like a prank call name is Hugh Beaver.
Speaker 1: There anybody got a Hugh Beaver? Read Hugh Beavers anyway,
Speaker 1: that is the prank name. So, Sir Hugh Beaver he
Speaker 1: took a shot at a bird called a golden plover
Speaker 1: and he missed. Well, his host kind of chuckled at
Speaker 1: him for missing this shot, and this started an argument
Speaker 1: and he was like, well, gracious name, that one got
Speaker 1: away from me, didn't it definitely missed that golden plover.
Speaker 1: But I'll tell you what makes perfect sense though, as
Speaker 1: the golden plover is the fastest game bird in Europe.
Speaker 1: Good gracious, sir, Well, what an excuse, old dash. What
Speaker 1: everyone knows the red grass is the fastest game bird
Speaker 1: in Europe. What I'll show you the fastest game bird
Speaker 1: in Europe. Fast. You missed your shot, Now you missed
Speaker 1: your facts? Back to Oxford for you. I'll get you
Speaker 1: for this. You know, whatever people do in their spare time,
Speaker 1: little argument, they probably have like croquet balans, Oh yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: definitely in the legs. Yeah, some fisticuffs and some fisticuffs.
Speaker 1: What's that? Old that Irish boxing with the you know,
Speaker 1: your straight up in the air and you're swinging them
Speaker 1: around in circles and then you just like straight out
Speaker 1: like a like a rock and socking robot. What is that?
Speaker 1: Is that a certain style of box It's the coolest
Speaker 1: style of boxing you ever watched. Old like movies from
Speaker 1: the early nineteen hundreds, not movies from the movies about
Speaker 1: the early nineteen hundreds where there's like, you know, there's
Speaker 1: Irish guy's boxing. They always do that stand straight out
Speaker 1: punching straight out. We're doing it in the studio. You
Speaker 1: can't see. That's why we need video this show. We're
Speaker 1: having a great time in here, missing out, all right.
Speaker 1: So they're arguing about the fastest game bird in Europe.
Speaker 1: So yeah, we're at castle Bridge House. They thought they
Speaker 1: would settle this once and for all with books. Here
Speaker 1: the true heroes, So take you to faraway lands to
Speaker 1: show you the fastest birds are, show you the tallest, fastest, smallest. Anyway,
Speaker 1: they tore through their shelves. They pulled out every reference
Speaker 1: book they could find about birds, hunting, zoology, mating or whatever,
Speaker 1: anything they could think of that could settle their furious arguments.
Speaker 1: But ultimately they couldn't really find anything. So Sir Beaver thought,
Speaker 1: you know what, if we want this book, somebody else
Speaker 1: might want this book. There's got to be a place
Speaker 1: for this. Well. Sir Hugh Beaver happened to be the
Speaker 1: managing director at Guinness Brewing's It is the beer. Guinness
Speaker 1: is good for you and it will record your achievements.
Speaker 1: So an employee of Sir Hugh Beaver directed him to
Speaker 1: the twins Norris and Ross mc whirter, who had been
Speaker 1: running a fact finding company in London, and Beaver gave
Speaker 1: them the idea for this book, which makes sense. They're
Speaker 1: fact finders. Sure go find some facts about how fast
Speaker 1: the bird was. And Guinness Superlatives was incorporated on November
Speaker 1: nineteen fifty four and their first book was released the
Speaker 1: following August, and Sir Beaver literally just put the name
Speaker 1: Guinness on it as a promotional opportunity. He's the managing
Speaker 1: director and he was like, hey, Guinness is good for you,
Speaker 1: and we'll record it the merch Guinness Book of Records.
Speaker 1: I read somewhere that part of the inspiration was a
Speaker 1: lot of like pub debates people would have all the time.
Speaker 1: It was common for people in pubs to be like, no,
Speaker 1: I think it's this, and then they get into their
Speaker 1: whole Irish fisticuffs thing, you know. Um, So it was
Speaker 1: part of that, like, well, let's just associate the Guinness
Speaker 1: brandling these pub arguments, so every pub will have a
Speaker 1: Guinness book so that they can solve before the fight starts. Perfect,
Speaker 1: they can solve, they can go ahead and say let's
Speaker 1: settle this once and for all. So the book was
Speaker 1: a bestseller by Christmas and since then to date, it
Speaker 1: has sold a hundred million copies in a hundred countries
Speaker 1: in in thirty seven languages. It's one of the most
Speaker 1: well known and ubiquitous brands in the world. And they
Speaker 1: report only to themselves, sister who watches the Watchman? Where
Speaker 1: the tarency. But they do have a lot of like
Speaker 1: ethical rules they've established, like obviously, no harming or killing
Speaker 1: of animals are allowed in the pursuit of any of
Speaker 1: these Obviously people as well. I assume people have came,
Speaker 1: but not animals. But sometimes they do pull records because
Speaker 1: of the potential danger of people trying to break those records.
Speaker 1: Like for example, they at one point pulled all of
Speaker 1: their alcohol drinking related records because people were trying to
Speaker 1: break them and like poison themselves. Yeah. Um. And other
Speaker 1: records like swords swallowing or street racing on public roads
Speaker 1: were closed because the current sitting records were already beyond
Speaker 1: what was considered safe for people to try. So they
Speaker 1: didn't want anybody trying to outdo that. You're like, that's
Speaker 1: just you know, waiting for an accident or like, you
Speaker 1: can outdo it, but we're not going to reward you
Speaker 1: for it, right, right, It was you didn't do it
Speaker 1: because of us? Yeah, a liability thing. Sometimes they do
Speaker 1: reopen these records for very controlled circumstances, like they did
Speaker 1: the sword swallowing one on TV at one point. Um,
Speaker 1: but exactly. Yeah. But mostly really they're just not trying
Speaker 1: to have a bunch of people get themselves killed in
Speaker 1: the name of Guinness. They don't need a Guinness Records
Speaker 1: and a Darwin Awards crossover book. Nobody wants that. I mean,
Speaker 1: I want it, but I don't want it to happen.
Speaker 1: You know. You know what I'm saying. You want to
Speaker 1: be a short book. Yeah. Um. And by the way,
Speaker 1: going back to their original debate, a lot of sites
Speaker 1: say that sir Beaver was right and in fact the
Speaker 1: Golden plover was in fact the fastest game bird in Europe.
Speaker 1: There you go. But Guinness now has it listed and
Speaker 1: of course they only do world records for a long
Speaker 1: time didn't even answer the fastest game bird in Europe.
Speaker 1: But the fastest game bird in the world, which does
Speaker 1: live in Europe as well, is actually the red breasted merganser,
Speaker 1: which is a kind of duck, and that has been
Speaker 1: recorded flying up to one Oh my god, that is
Speaker 1: one fast duck. Yeah, if he's flying at me, I
Speaker 1: will duck because he could go right through me. But
Speaker 1: back to our subjects today. Yes, um, we're going to
Speaker 1: start with some real speedsters. They're they're the red breasted
Speaker 1: merc answers of the human species. On March six two,
Speaker 1: at the Tokyo Marathon, now each Yama and ken Go
Speaker 1: Suzuki became the married couple with the fastest combined run
Speaker 1: time in the same marathon. What a record, And when
Speaker 1: you hear their background, it's not all that surprising because
Speaker 1: guess what they were both runners. Oh my god, no
Speaker 1: ship this. I want the Guinness Book of World Records
Speaker 1: from un like, not the unprofessional record like people like
Speaker 1: you and I have to break the running record. You
Speaker 1: know it's gonna be strong or like, I'll run for
Speaker 1: like four minutes. I don't know how far I'm gonna guess.
Speaker 1: You can either time me or you can do distance.
Speaker 1: I do one speed or distance, which which alright? So?
Speaker 1: Keno Suzuki was the Japanese record holder for the men's
Speaker 1: marathon in February one, when he was twenty six years old.
Speaker 1: He finished in two hours, four minutes and fifty six
Speaker 1: seconds again, so impossible to me. You may as well
Speaker 1: be have a magic You may as well be a
Speaker 1: magic person. Maw Ichi Yama had come in first place
Speaker 1: in the Osako Women's Marathon at two hours, twenty one
Speaker 1: minutes and eleven seconds, and came in eighth place at
Speaker 1: the Tokyo Olympics Women's Marathon that same year. So this
Speaker 1: is an accomplished lady. I'll be honest, there's a part
Speaker 1: of me for a second that was like eighth place
Speaker 1: as I, like, you know, shoved some more Cheetos into
Speaker 1: my mouth, eighth place at the Tokyo Olympics. Try harder
Speaker 1: next time, lady. I want to go for a walk today.
Speaker 1: It's kind of hot. Yeah, I'm struggling to get out
Speaker 1: of my chair. Oh well. In December of these two
Speaker 1: announced on Instagram that they had gotten married, and I'm
Speaker 1: just imagining their wedding speculations. Station. That's the fastest run
Speaker 1: down the aisle. Well, I hope at least the ever
Speaker 1: married them said something about how they had each been
Speaker 1: running until they found each other. They had been running
Speaker 1: for each other the whole time. Something. I gotta wonder
Speaker 1: if maybe they told their efficient no running jokes. No
Speaker 1: running puns, don't reference. It's not our whole identity. We're
Speaker 1: full people, you know, we like other things. Their whole
Speaker 1: vows are like we both like sushi two okay. In
Speaker 1: March of that year one, they joined each other at
Speaker 1: the Tokyo Marathon, and according to the blog japan Running News,
Speaker 1: Keno ran the second fastest Japanese men's time ever at
Speaker 1: two hours, five minutes and twenty eight seconds, and he
Speaker 1: finished at fourth place overall, and Mao landed in sixth
Speaker 1: place overall, with her time being two hours, twenty one
Speaker 1: minutes and two seconds, giving them a combined time of
Speaker 1: four hours, twenty six minutes and thirty seconds. Insane, fastest
Speaker 1: combined run for a married couple ever. Wow. But my
Speaker 1: question is if he came in fourth place and she
Speaker 1: came in sixth place, who was the asshole in fifth place?
Speaker 1: Like read the room, dude, this is a couple's events.
Speaker 1: You're literally coming between heights. Why don't you hang back
Speaker 1: to six or why don't you speed up to third? There? Buddy?
Speaker 1: Maybe they took the fifth home as a sell. Well,
Speaker 1: those are the rules. If you come between us in
Speaker 1: the race, you got to stay between us at night.
Speaker 1: What kind of marathon is? My question is if you's
Speaker 1: the kind I would sign up for? It was that
Speaker 1: interested running. I made it in an hour fifty seven,
Speaker 1: and I'm all alone because it was long behind me.
Speaker 1: Your training was incredible. That was too fast. You committed
Speaker 1: to that ship. Story of my life. I just tried
Speaker 1: a little too hard, left with no one. Is that
Speaker 1: the story of your life? I don't think that's sorry.
Speaker 1: It has been chapters. It might not be the full
Speaker 1: che I want to know how you ran. How you
Speaker 1: run the second fastest men's time ever, But then coming
Speaker 1: fourth wouldn't the person who people who beat you have been?
Speaker 1: Maybe it was all women who beat him recording this
Speaker 1: maybe first, second and third place for women. I guess.
Speaker 1: So he's the second fastest, so I guess there was
Speaker 1: at least one man ahead of it, and then maybe
Speaker 1: the rest of the two women. Yeah, or do you
Speaker 1: think that women can't run his fast? Yeah? I think
Speaker 1: what you're saying, I said to myself, Shenanigans. Well, at
Speaker 1: any rate, their combined time of did beat the previous
Speaker 1: record holder by just thirty five seconds according to Guinness.
Speaker 1: That's that's that's really getting him by this skin of
Speaker 1: your teeth there. Uh, that record was held by Purity
Speaker 1: certach Riano Rippo and Paul kip Chumba Lonata from Kenya.
Speaker 1: Probably butchered those names. Um, but very elogies to Kenya, yes,
Speaker 1: but also a very fast married couple running time. Yeah,
Speaker 1: very cool. What do you think is the furthest we
Speaker 1: could run combined a block block? Yeah? All right, I'm
Speaker 1: not going to pick the block of them. I know
Speaker 1: some of these blocks are longer than others. You ain't
Speaker 1: chicken me small town block in like a very flat
Speaker 1: Montana town. Our street, yeah, I think we could run.
Speaker 1: I can't run our street. There's a slight incline. Will
Speaker 1: we run down it? Yeah? But then you have to
Speaker 1: go back up? Is right? Well they're not the only
Speaker 1: record breaking runners couples out there. Okay, so because on November,
Speaker 1: Matsugu Chida and Ryoko Ichi, also from Japan, set the
Speaker 1: record for being the oldest married couple to run a
Speaker 1: marathon together, with a combined age of a hundred and
Speaker 1: seventy years and thirty days. They're in their eighties. They're
Speaker 1: in their eighties running a marathon, and we are in
Speaker 1: our thirties laughing about how we cannot get down the block.
Speaker 1: Now this couple just keeps breaking their own record over
Speaker 1: and over again. So no, there's no one older who
Speaker 1: has managed to break their record. Yet we found articles
Speaker 1: from them doing this in Seen and what happened in Seen?
Speaker 1: Did they die fighting? Where they were fighting? They were like, uh,
Speaker 1: I'm not running with you this year. Maybe they weren't
Speaker 1: feeling that good that day or something. Maybe they were
Speaker 1: just like, yeah, how many times have to prove myself
Speaker 1: to this world? And then the next year they're like,
Speaker 1: all right, well stick around for more, because we're about
Speaker 1: to set the record for the fastest married couple to
Speaker 1: ever come back from a commercial break. Stay tuned, all right,
Speaker 1: welcome back to the show. I am out of breath
Speaker 1: from that. Do you run around? Yeah? Yeah, in my
Speaker 1: mind I did? In your mind? Yeah? Alright, our next
Speaker 1: record breaking romance today sounds like a whole lot of planning.
Speaker 1: They should probably have gotten award just for organization. Lauren
Speaker 1: and David Blair must love putting a wedding together, because
Speaker 1: they set a record inn by renewing their vows for
Speaker 1: the one hundredth time. These two met in two while
Speaker 1: working at Universal Studios, Hollywood when they were about thirty
Speaker 1: years old. Lauren was an executive secretary and David was
Speaker 1: a set lighting technician. Pretty that's a cool job Universal Studios,
Speaker 1: and what a time. In an interview with The USA Today,
Speaker 1: David said quote, I looked across the counter there, and
Speaker 1: I knew the first time I laid eyes on her
Speaker 1: that that was the woman I was going to marry. Cute,
Speaker 1: but he said he was still really nervous about going
Speaker 1: up and talking to her, Which makes sense. If you're
Speaker 1: like I want to marry you, you're like, way to
Speaker 1: intimidate you. So he did managed to pull himself together.
Speaker 1: He approached her a few days later they went on
Speaker 1: their first date together. Now Laura herself was like a
Speaker 1: little less smitten because David wasn't quite what she was
Speaker 1: looking for right now. She said, quote, I'd been with
Speaker 1: musicians most of my life, and I wanted a guy
Speaker 1: in a three piece suit now, and that is not
Speaker 1: what David wears. It does not sound like a lighting
Speaker 1: technician to me. No, No, you're kind of in the
Speaker 1: closer to the same world, very close often the same world.
Speaker 1: That's true. But he did manage to win her over.
Speaker 1: Only a few months into dating, David proposed to Lauren
Speaker 1: and she looked in his big loving eyes at this
Speaker 1: band who was just completely devoted to her happiness, and
Speaker 1: she said, no, damn what. Lauren had just gotten out
Speaker 1: of a ten year relationship, so she said, at the time,
Speaker 1: she still thought she was going to get back together
Speaker 1: with that guy. Oh well, I mean that makes sense
Speaker 1: a ten year relationship. You gotta be real with yourself.
Speaker 1: You don't want to jump into some ship. But here's
Speaker 1: my question. She had been dating a musician for ten
Speaker 1: years Inwood in Hollywood, and she was thinking about getting
Speaker 1: back with this guy. So whoops? Who could it have been?
Speaker 1: I'm looking hot musicians and we've got I mean, Michael
Speaker 1: Jackson's one of the first people that came up. But
Speaker 1: I don't think it was Michael Jackson. I feel like
Speaker 1: i'd be surprised an Alman brother, Uh, one of the Smiths.
Speaker 1: Maybe maybe they're British though, so I don't know. Right
Speaker 1: Phil Collins, she was totally dating Phil Collins from Genesis. Look,
Speaker 1: they were both born Lauren and Phil Collins the same age.
Speaker 1: Whoever it was she thought she was going to get
Speaker 1: back together with this guy, so she put David on
Speaker 1: ice no his proposal. Well, but about five months later,
Speaker 1: Lauren was at her cousin's wedding. Near the end of
Speaker 1: the night, you know, the bride, everyone gathers around. The
Speaker 1: bride throws the bouquet overhead, everybody want it PLoP. It
Speaker 1: landed right in Lauren's arm. She'd been thinking about David
Speaker 1: a lot and second guessing turning him down because I
Speaker 1: guess Phil Collins was run off doing his thing wherever
Speaker 1: he was. She's like, somebody needs to treat me like
Speaker 1: the queen that I am, right, So anyway, this bouquet
Speaker 1: just felt like a sign, and according to bridal guide
Speaker 1: dot Com, the next day, Lauren passed David a little
Speaker 1: handwritten note and he opened it up and it said, quote,
Speaker 1: if you still want to marry me, please ask me again.
Speaker 1: And he dropped down to one knee right there and
Speaker 1: asked her again. That's set. She should have just asked him, though,
Speaker 1: but no, she she wanted that moment. She was like,
Speaker 1: she was regretting that she didn't say yes, and she's like, Okay,
Speaker 1: you know what I sucked up? Proposed to me again?
Speaker 1: If you want to do it again, I want to
Speaker 1: say yes, this time, I get it. I think that's sweet,
Speaker 1: that's fair. I'll say, a handwritten note can go a
Speaker 1: long way. Oh yeah. I knew a girl who was
Speaker 1: a hostess at this restaurant I worked at, and she
Speaker 1: was really into this server that worked there. And one
Speaker 1: day he's working and he said, she tapped him, you
Speaker 1: dropped this, And she took a little piece of paper
Speaker 1: from her and he thought I had fallen out of
Speaker 1: a server book. Opens it up, and she said, go
Speaker 1: out on a date with me. It was like just
Speaker 1: her phone number, go out on a date with me.
Speaker 1: And they have two kids. Now I'm just telling you
Speaker 1: the role of story is they have two kids. Wonderful.
Speaker 1: So on May six they got married for the first
Speaker 1: time into Panga Canyon in California. But the very next
Speaker 1: day they had to go to Chicago and have a
Speaker 1: church wedding with their families because David's family was like,
Speaker 1: I ain't getting on a plane for no body or nothing.
Speaker 1: And so they already had had two weddings at that point.
Speaker 1: And then on their honeymoon, which they took to Las Vegas,
Speaker 1: they had a coupon for a free wedding, so they decided, well,
Speaker 1: let's not waste this, and they went ahead and got
Speaker 1: married a third time while they were on their honeymoon
Speaker 1: from their second wedding within within a week. This is
Speaker 1: like May six was their first wedding and I think
Speaker 1: May twelve was their wedding in Vegas. Wow, that's funny.
Speaker 1: Times in a week. So they get home from their
Speaker 1: honeymoon and they're kind of joking around and they're like, gee,
Speaker 1: I wonder if there's a Guinness record for like the
Speaker 1: most times getting married, And sure enough there was. The
Speaker 1: record was set at fifty eight vow renewals from another couple.
Speaker 1: I could not find their names anywhere. That's too bad.
Speaker 1: I'm very interested, I know. But from this point they
Speaker 1: decided that they were going to renew their vows over
Speaker 1: and over again, and like, let's break this record. We're
Speaker 1: all we already got a head start, like we're three
Speaker 1: two ahead of most people exactly. So they picked out
Speaker 1: special days, like nearly every Valentine's Day they would do it.
Speaker 1: Sometimes Christmas they would do it. They even had ceremonies
Speaker 1: on either side of midnight by one minute at New
Speaker 1: Year's one time get married, very last thing, and the
Speaker 1: very first thing of the year, we get married. And
Speaker 1: since two thousand one hit, they made sure to marry
Speaker 1: any time that the month, date and year matched up,
Speaker 1: so like January one, two thousand one, February second, two
Speaker 1: thousand two, and so on. You know, July seven, two seven,
Speaker 1: you get it all the way up through twelve. Nice.
Speaker 1: And they've also gotten married on every numbered day, like
Speaker 1: so they've been married on twelve at some point, They've
Speaker 1: been married on eight at some point, no matter the month.
Speaker 1: So they consider every day of the year to be
Speaker 1: an anniversary because they can say, oh, it's been this
Speaker 1: long since we got married on this day day. Yeah, well,
Speaker 1: I guess on the plus side, you can never forget it, true,
Speaker 1: you just always just pick one and you're like, today's
Speaker 1: a day. I'll really do it up. On the minus side,
Speaker 1: like how many you run out of the list on
Speaker 1: what anniversary you're at? What's the three thousand, six hundred
Speaker 1: and seventy fifth anniversary. I'm just looking around the room popcorn.
Speaker 1: Six months later, it's like, that's the pencils anniversary. It's
Speaker 1: the anniversary of endless voids. I got you an endless void.
Speaker 1: Another that does take a lot of planning. You got
Speaker 1: a picture their calendar finder that they have where they're like, Okay,
Speaker 1: we've got every leap day. We want to get every mike. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we want to get every day of the year that
Speaker 1: matches up the day and out in all these different days.
Speaker 1: Like they must have to really like post it note
Speaker 1: it a little bit to get that make sure they
Speaker 1: get what they want. But it's not all about the
Speaker 1: record breaking that's motivating them. Lauren said that a lot
Speaker 1: of it is because of the long term relationships that
Speaker 1: they've both been in the past that didn't work out,
Speaker 1: and now they felt like they were so meant for
Speaker 1: each other that they quote wanted to continually share that
Speaker 1: vow experience. She told Guinness, quote I love to look
Speaker 1: into David's eyes as he is repeating his vows. I
Speaker 1: know that this man will love me until the day
Speaker 1: I die. Of course, David will tell you he does
Speaker 1: it for the honeymoons. Now, that is enticing. If we're
Speaker 1: gonna have a honeymoon every renewal, that's pretty dope. We've
Speaker 1: said that a few times ourselves. Let's just do our
Speaker 1: wedding again so we can take another other big honeymoon
Speaker 1: so true, but I don't think we could convinced that
Speaker 1: many people to donate to our think it would be
Speaker 1: less generous the second time round, to be scaled down.
Speaker 1: I think they would immediately catch on it wouldn't be
Speaker 1: the third or fourth wedding or people like, wait a second,
Speaker 1: it would be the second. Well, and I do think
Speaker 1: that's very cute. That's kind of nice to just constantly
Speaker 1: be reminding each other of what you're promising each other
Speaker 1: and your daily commitment to a lifelong thing. Is that
Speaker 1: that makes a little sense. There is a pretty extensive
Speaker 1: list of their renewals up to the one hundred and
Speaker 1: seventh on the Daily Mail, and they usually renew a
Speaker 1: few times a year. There's none in what happened in
Speaker 1: It's like the yeah for the runners. Maybe every couples
Speaker 1: like you just always have to take one year break
Speaker 1: so that one day when you inevitably get covered by
Speaker 1: some podcasts somewhere, they have a little something to talk about.
Speaker 1: They did it for us, well, thank you, Lauren and David.
Speaker 1: I like to think the world revolves around me and
Speaker 1: mine Right right now, weddings thirty one through fifty two,
Speaker 1: we're all in the year two thousands, So at that
Speaker 1: point you can tell they're really trying to get the
Speaker 1: record in. Yeah, I mean, because they're trying to break
Speaker 1: fifty eight. And it really is like you look at
Speaker 1: their full list of weddings and it's like to this
Speaker 1: year three, that year one, some years none in you know,
Speaker 1: ninety five or whatever, and then the year two thousand,
Speaker 1: it's just constant, like multiple times. It's like twenty one times.
Speaker 1: That's more than one a month. And on February of
Speaker 1: two thousand one, they broke the record and they had
Speaker 1: their fifty ninth thou renewal at the Serendipity three coffee
Speaker 1: shop in New York City. Lauren said, quote, we had
Speaker 1: to get married four times in four days in order
Speaker 1: to break the record on Valentine's Day, which does make
Speaker 1: me second guess the thing you mentioned earlier about how
Speaker 1: organized they have to be, because they clearly were like, oh, ship,
Speaker 1: we're not there yet. We have to get married four times.
Speaker 1: I know. Maybe they started out real organized and they
Speaker 1: had like a really serious idea about which to do
Speaker 1: it on and stuff, and they realized, like, you know what,
Speaker 1: we just got to get this done. Every day special
Speaker 1: alright ya. Now, apparently these weddings have all been pretty
Speaker 1: cheap too, because that was a big question I had.
Speaker 1: But they said they're most expensive was when they went
Speaker 1: to Graceland. It was their wedding, and they paid three bucks.
Speaker 1: Usually they just dropped like a hundred bucks to rent
Speaker 1: a little chapel somewhere, quick in and out. They're not
Speaker 1: big lavish weddings. Um, they never had any kids, so
Speaker 1: they said they've got spare time and they don't mind
Speaker 1: spending the money and they get to go all over.
Speaker 1: Their fiftieth wedding was on the set of Romeo and
Speaker 1: Juliette at Nashville's Performing Arts Center. I love that Romeo
Speaker 1: and Juliette is such a romantic icon. It ends terribly
Speaker 1: like it's like when people play, um, what's the song
Speaker 1: they play I'll be watching you at their first dance.
Speaker 1: I heard Sting and an interview talk about this. He's like,
Speaker 1: I don't know why people play I'll be watching you
Speaker 1: at their weddings. It's about a stalker. It's not a
Speaker 1: love song. It's not you should not be watching her right, Um.
Speaker 1: But these two have also been married in Nevada several times.
Speaker 1: They got married once in Cape Cod. I'm sure it
Speaker 1: was beautiful. They've also been married in Scotland and London,
Speaker 1: and in fact, they were the first couple to ever
Speaker 1: get married at the hard Rock Cafe London. Wow. See
Speaker 1: a couple of records broken. Yeah, anyway, they made real
Speaker 1: names for themselves now. Their original goal was to get
Speaker 1: to a hundred val renewals, which they did on October
Speaker 1: two when they got married at the hard Rock Cafe
Speaker 1: in Honolulu, Hawaii. They love the hard Rock Cafe. I
Speaker 1: guess they're she likes musicians at right, So maybe it's like,
Speaker 1: well and it's like, you know, you probably don't have
Speaker 1: to like rent out the whole venue, and so they
Speaker 1: probably just did it like before dinner, you just find
Speaker 1: an efficient Okay, great. Well, since then they've slowed down some,
Speaker 1: but they still mark special occasions with a vour duel
Speaker 1: and they say they're just like any other married couple,
Speaker 1: despite their constant reminder that they're married. Af they do
Speaker 1: fight sometimes and Lauren says, quote, oh, we just have
Speaker 1: this thing of well, find then I'm not going to
Speaker 1: marry you again, and I can always hold that over
Speaker 1: his head. Yeah, Well that's cute. That's cute. I mean,
Speaker 1: that's a that's a cool little project to kind of
Speaker 1: be like a reason to go somewhere, you know, pick
Speaker 1: a destination for a trip and stuff. The last number
Speaker 1: I saw was a hundred and nine, and that was
Speaker 1: like in twenty sixteen or so. Um, so that's the
Speaker 1: last time anybody wrote an article about them. I hope
Speaker 1: they're still out there going for it. Like they said,
Speaker 1: they were born around nineteen fifty, they're like in their
Speaker 1: early seventies now, hopefully still out there. Yeah, that's doing
Speaker 1: their thing. Yeah, I mean it's a bit much for me.
Speaker 1: I would love a vow renewal now and again. It
Speaker 1: sounds nice, but I'd be worried about it kind of
Speaker 1: losing its ch. I was about to say that would
Speaker 1: be the only thing is especially like like thinking about
Speaker 1: the one that's one minute apart on New Year's did
Speaker 1: you change what you said or what the offician said,
Speaker 1: or do you have some like I'll say that the
Speaker 1: just to answer that. They did say in one article
Speaker 1: that the efficient always writes their vows for them, so
Speaker 1: they like, you know, when they when they hire someone,
Speaker 1: they said, we want you to do it, so they said,
Speaker 1: some of them have come up with some great, wonderful
Speaker 1: Blacky's any things that they've Okay, well that's cool. So
Speaker 1: it's not always the same words and stuff. Well that's
Speaker 1: something at least I guess you could, you could keep
Speaker 1: keep it fresh in that way. But I kind of agree.
Speaker 1: I love having a vow renew will be like it's
Speaker 1: been twenty years, it's been fifty years, and we want
Speaker 1: to blow out again and and tell everyone how much
Speaker 1: how committed we still are. Like it feels so powerful
Speaker 1: and impactful and it's that special. But I guess it's
Speaker 1: you know, special Guinness World record and it stays special
Speaker 1: to them, so hey, more power to Yeah, I'm pretty
Speaker 1: impressed by these two. They committed to the bit, that's
Speaker 1: for sure. They committed to the bit, and you know what,
Speaker 1: they set up their life exactly how they want to
Speaker 1: and right, that's all we can do. That's all anyone
Speaker 1: can do. Well, we're going to take a quick break
Speaker 1: so that you can renew your vows to these products
Speaker 1: and services and we will be right back after this.
Speaker 1: Welcome back to the show. All right, So we have
Speaker 1: covered two very important aspects of lasting relationships. Weddings, and
Speaker 1: running really fast. But now it's time for us to
Speaker 1: get into some record breaking smooches. First off is the
Speaker 1: Guinness World Record for the longest kiss ever, straight long
Speaker 1: guess lasting kiss, and this was broken by a married
Speaker 1: couple named Eachai and Laksana Tieran rat. Want you to
Speaker 1: go ahead and guess how long you think this kiss?
Speaker 1: Wise listeners at home, just think to yourself, how long
Speaker 1: could the longest kiss possibly be? Fifteen minutes? Minutes? You
Speaker 1: think you'd go for like two whole hours. Well, I'm sorry, friends,
Speaker 1: but this kiss lasted a grand total of fifty eight hours,
Speaker 1: thirty five minutes and fifty eight seconds. That is almost
Speaker 1: two and a half literal days. Was this one of
Speaker 1: these couples like Lauren and David who just set out
Speaker 1: to break the record. Did these guys just really really
Speaker 1: like each other and they couldn't help it, or maybe
Speaker 1: it's just one of those like you hang up, no,
Speaker 1: you hang up, things like no, you stop kissing me, No,
Speaker 1: you stop kissing me. I'm not stopping until you stop,
Speaker 1: And it just kept going and everyone knows someone has
Speaker 1: slapped him. Be forty eight hours, that is true. There
Speaker 1: was a Buffy episode where they had a demon and
Speaker 1: trapped them in like a sexy time and I think
Speaker 1: she and her guy at the time had sex for
Speaker 1: like twenty four hours or something crazy in that episode.
Speaker 1: Maybe it was a demon. That's my guess. There's a
Speaker 1: demon nearby trapped them in something just like that Buffy episode.
Speaker 1: I appreciate you taking that big of a swing, but
Speaker 1: it was not any of those things. In fact, this
Speaker 1: was a dedicated contest. Yes, this was in Thailand and
Speaker 1: it was sponsored by Ripley's believe it or not. Believe
Speaker 1: it or not, the couple had to stay lip locked continuously,
Speaker 1: no breaks, no sleep. Oh god, that sounds dangerous. Honestly,
Speaker 1: they had to stand on their feet the whole time.
Speaker 1: Standing for fifty eight hours might be oh my god,
Speaker 1: a record all, but that's a hard back. It's hurt
Speaker 1: and just thinking about it. Also, they had to eat
Speaker 1: and for staws while they were kissing each other, and
Speaker 1: they had Can you imagine there's no way there's not
Speaker 1: some passing. There's some back and forth going on there.
Speaker 1: I hope you're not eating while you're listening to this episode.
Speaker 1: That's that's too late. Sorry. They even had to go
Speaker 1: to the bathroom together and keep their faces smoothed while
Speaker 1: they did their business. Oh my god. Which also I
Speaker 1: feel like that means someone had to watch them forty
Speaker 1: eight hours, No, while they were using the bathroom, right, like,
Speaker 1: how do you monitor that? Maybe they just held up
Speaker 1: a sheet or something so their faces were still up.
Speaker 1: That's probably what they did, right like, because you could
Speaker 1: put up a shield. But still that's like uncomfortable. They're
Speaker 1: still down. No, you have to squat together, squad together together.
Speaker 1: Do you think they set up two special toilets facing
Speaker 1: each other. I do not know how that. Honestly, I
Speaker 1: don't want to own no one right in speculation station
Speaker 1: is closed for maintenance. You'll not be trying to be
Speaker 1: not interested. They were pitted against eight other couples, and
Speaker 1: the second place team were these two men who had
Speaker 1: won the contest the year prior, but this year one
Speaker 1: of them fainted and collapsed two minutes before and Lixana
Speaker 1: stopped their kiss, which I feel like as soon as
Speaker 1: he collapsed, I would have been like, m hmmm, oh
Speaker 1: he's down, he's down, we can stop, like, but they
Speaker 1: kept it going for two minutes more minutes. That's really
Speaker 1: committed because You've got to set the record as long
Speaker 1: as you can, no matter how many, because it's harder
Speaker 1: for someone else to break next time. You're like, then
Speaker 1: I don't have to play next year. I'll never kiss
Speaker 1: you again. An event organizer is quoted in the Hindustan
Speaker 1: Times saying, quote, they were very exhausted because they did
Speaker 1: not sleep for two and a half days. They had
Speaker 1: to stay and all the time, so they were very weak.
Speaker 1: There's this video on It's a YouTube channel called fast
Speaker 1: the Latest News, and it shows people it's a video
Speaker 1: of this contest, and it shows people passing out and
Speaker 1: being carried away in wheelchairs. And the guy from that
Speaker 1: couple who passed out and collapsed from the from the
Speaker 1: final two, they showed his boyfriend down in the ground
Speaker 1: like trying to wake him up with smelling salts. P
Speaker 1: hardcore contests. Yeah, well, I mean again, just the fact
Speaker 1: of standing and not being able to eat real food
Speaker 1: for that long, Like that's very tough on your body. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and I guess I don't know are they outside are
Speaker 1: they inside? Inside? It's like in a mall, there's a
Speaker 1: ton of people watching, people gathered around. Yeah, vibe Yeah,
Speaker 1: and as people literally drop they just like carry him away.
Speaker 1: It's wild. Ultimately, they won a hundred thousand BOT, which
Speaker 1: checking hair calculating is thirty three hundred dollars US. Not bad,
Speaker 1: and they got a diamond ring worth about half that.
Speaker 1: And of course these are Guinness World Record breakers and
Speaker 1: very frequently these people are out there doing this over
Speaker 1: and over again, breaking their own records, and that's exactly
Speaker 1: what happened with these two. Well they're the only people
Speaker 1: with the training. Yeah yeah, right, Like last year, I
Speaker 1: stood for fifty eight hours and I can do it
Speaker 1: for but uh, previous years they won a similar cash prizes.
Speaker 1: I know it was a hundred thousand BOT the previous
Speaker 1: time they won. They also want a diamond ring each time,
Speaker 1: so you' know, not a bad little chunk of change.
Speaker 1: They also broke the record inn with a forty six
Speaker 1: hour kiss and that was the time they beat the
Speaker 1: previous record of thirty two hours, which was set by
Speaker 1: a German couple named Nicole Matovik and Christina Reinhardt. It
Speaker 1: doesn't appear that this record has been broken since, so
Speaker 1: I'm thinking of anybody out there, it's got a few
Speaker 1: days to spare. You know, you're trying to kill some time.
Speaker 1: Maybe go win yourself a couple of thousand bucks. You know,
Speaker 1: thank you. Well, I wasn't asking you just check. I'm
Speaker 1: not volunteering. I'm just saying, y'all go for it now.
Speaker 1: The Hingston Times article said that after quote, organizers said
Speaker 1: they did not plan to hold another competition next year
Speaker 1: after three straight years of beating the record in Thailand,
Speaker 1: they will wait for a challenge in another country. Wow,
Speaker 1: They're like, somebody step to me. That's worthy and maybe
Speaker 1: I'll come out of retirement. All right, we'll hold your
Speaker 1: breath because this one is the longest kiss ever done underwater.
Speaker 1: This was an Italian couple who managed to suck face
Speaker 1: while holding their breath for a full three minutes and
Speaker 1: four seconds. Now, this is the record for in apnea,
Speaker 1: which means they were completely unaided in their breathing and
Speaker 1: they just held their branch while they were kissing, which
Speaker 1: is only Italians. You know. Times like I will kiss
Speaker 1: you here there everyone, and I don't need to come
Speaker 1: up for air. I can handle it. I've been up
Speaker 1: practicing for this in my whole life. Now. This was
Speaker 1: also a contest. It was held in March of in
Speaker 1: Rome and It was part of an Italian TV show
Speaker 1: called Lo Show Record or the Show of Records. You know,
Speaker 1: they're like, it's in the name. There's a video on
Speaker 1: the Guinness World Records Twitter page from July and you
Speaker 1: see the two couples dropped into a tank and they
Speaker 1: mashed their faces together and they just hold it there.
Speaker 1: So I guess not a lot of technique going into
Speaker 1: these kisses. Yes, it's mostly just like just slip on lips. Yes,
Speaker 1: the technique is not in the kiss, it is in
Speaker 1: the the underwater nous of it, like you see. I mean,
Speaker 1: these people are obviously swimmers. They got like tight swimmers bodies,
Speaker 1: and they're wearing tiny little speedos and I think they're
Speaker 1: in weight belts because they're staying at the bottom of
Speaker 1: the tank. And there's like the video shows close ups
Speaker 1: of their stomachs at like the two and a half
Speaker 1: three minute mark, and you can see these like weird
Speaker 1: undulating movements that their stomachs are doing. And I'm like,
Speaker 1: I don't know if that's part of the technique or
Speaker 1: if that's just like your body wanting to tell you
Speaker 1: to get the hell out of the wall. Yeah, So
Speaker 1: it looks so uncomfortable, but these are very dispassionate kisses, okay,
Speaker 1: and not a lot of tonguing anything going on now.
Speaker 1: The winners were Michelle Fuguarino and Elisa Lazzarini, and as
Speaker 1: far as we can tell, they just won medals, congratulations
Speaker 1: and a certificate from the Guinness World Records, So no
Speaker 1: cash involved in this particular contest, just just glory and fame,
Speaker 1: just for the cloud. It did it for the Graham.
Speaker 1: But it's not technically the longest underwater kiss ever because
Speaker 1: the longest one used mouth to mouth breathing, so there's
Speaker 1: was the longest holding your breath, but in this one,
Speaker 1: they would breathe back and forth to each other. Sounds
Speaker 1: worse to me that they lasted twenty minutes and eleven seconds,
Speaker 1: so mouth to mouth breathing, one's breathing into another's mouth,
Speaker 1: back and forth. Carbon dioxide and not oxygen. I mean
Speaker 1: I very briefly glanced at this because I was like,
Speaker 1: can you just breathe back and forth to people and
Speaker 1: keep them good underwater? And they were like, for a
Speaker 1: little bit, you kind of little because you don't use
Speaker 1: very much of the oxygen that you breathe in. You know,
Speaker 1: when you expel, you know, more carbon dioxide and oxygen,
Speaker 1: but apparently it's like finding a pinch. These people did
Speaker 1: it for twenty minutes. But I'll say this one is
Speaker 1: a super mystery to me because on the Guinness World
Speaker 1: Records website where they list this record, it says this
Speaker 1: all happened in Freiburg, Germany, on March eighteenth, two thousand twelve,
Speaker 1: and the record was set by Nicolay Linder and that's it.
Speaker 1: They don't list a second name. So I'm like, who
Speaker 1: was Nikolay kissing? Who was breathing air to them? What? Right?
Speaker 1: Was it some some someone who can't be named because
Speaker 1: they're like the deep, Like they're an underwater breather, so
Speaker 1: they have an endless supply of oxygen? Yeah? Was it
Speaker 1: like a blowfish speculation station? It was a blowfish? Well,
Speaker 1: I don't know what happened. I saw one page said, oh,
Speaker 1: the other person at the party requested not to be named.
Speaker 1: I'm like, who would request not to be named and
Speaker 1: breaking Againness World record? Unless speculation station. They shouldn't have
Speaker 1: been kissing Nikolay. They didn't want their spouse to know
Speaker 1: that they were underwater. Some breath back and forth with Nikolai.
Speaker 1: Probably it now or yes, that's probably what it is.
Speaker 1: They were like, listen, there's some just my husband slash wife.
Speaker 1: They don't have diving interests like I do, and they're
Speaker 1: always on me about spending time when I diving friends. Look,
Speaker 1: I don't want to hear it. My wife was like,
Speaker 1: you've got to stop swapping breaths with people onto water.
Speaker 1: I am jealous. You have to respect my jealousy. I
Speaker 1: don't know why. She sounds like dr scratch and sniff
Speaker 1: on the side, like your arms were kimbo. Also very
Speaker 1: import I'm very upset. I don't care how many records
Speaker 1: you broke. You are done with thus diving. All right, listen,
Speaker 1: since we're underwater, let's just squeeze one more record breaking
Speaker 1: wedding in before we come up for air. All right.
Speaker 1: This was the largest wedding ever held underwater. So this
Speaker 1: was the Polish couple Avis Toronska and Pavoo Brookowski who
Speaker 1: held their wedding at the bottom of a lake. It
Speaker 1: sounds like an accident. It does sound like an accident,
Speaker 1: like they drove their car back accident off of phone. No,
Speaker 1: we have to hold our wedding at the bottom of lake,
Speaker 1: like I'd marry you anywhere, darling, even at the bottom
Speaker 1: of a lake. Well, good news, blug glug. Look that's
Speaker 1: where we're headed now. These two were licensed divers, okay,
Speaker 1: so that makes sense. Uh. They went to the Caparky
Speaker 1: Diving base in Poland in and held a wedding with
Speaker 1: three hundred and three other divers, which helped me a
Speaker 1: lot because I initially was like, well, I can't go
Speaker 1: to your wedding if it's a pot of a lake.
Speaker 1: There's no chance for me to witness your union. But
Speaker 1: of course divers, certainly no other divers, and they're like, awesome,
Speaker 1: we got to the school, was invited, right, surely Mann
Speaker 1: and three. That's a lot of people. Now. The whole
Speaker 1: ceremony lasted about eighteen minutes and they're efficient. Was a
Speaker 1: Catholic diving priest. The Catholic Church just has a priest.
Speaker 1: They can do everything. They every interest, yeah, well at
Speaker 1: least every every element. They've got a fire priest, they've
Speaker 1: got a water priest. Where's the last hairbender? Catholic issue?
Speaker 1: That is not with the last hairbender? Face that not
Speaker 1: at all, not even clothes, so this Catholic diving priest
Speaker 1: communicated with them through sign language. I just really like
Speaker 1: how you're saying Catholic diving priest, Like that's the a
Speaker 1: Catholic priest who dives you a title a diving priest,
Speaker 1: Like that's the specific part of the Bible that he
Speaker 1: focuses on the Book of Diving. Sorry, continue, it's too good.
Speaker 1: This Catholic diving priest commune indicated with them through sign
Speaker 1: language and also pre written signs while everyone else just watched.
Speaker 1: So they all, I guess, knew what was happening, right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: they had to still say everything they needed to say
Speaker 1: and make it very moving and loving. They had cards
Speaker 1: printed out that said like I do on them already say,
Speaker 1: would just hold those up that kind of thing? That's cute, yeah, cute, Yeah,
Speaker 1: that would kind of give a cartoon effect to me,
Speaker 1: Like like, that was the largest wedding ever held underwater,
Speaker 1: and I look forward to hearing about whoever tries to
Speaker 1: break that record. I guess yeah, I mean that's a
Speaker 1: lot of people again three three, But I'll tell you
Speaker 1: what the whole wedding ceremony was eighteen minutes. Well, Nikolai
Speaker 1: Linder and their their secret. Someone else could have been
Speaker 1: kissing that whole time, and then some without no diving equipment.
Speaker 1: Now did Eva and Pavao have a kiss? Uh? You
Speaker 1: know they didn't see if they had a k I'm
Speaker 1: sure it wasn't worth mentioning is because they didn't mouth breathe.
Speaker 1: They just swap at their mouthpiece. Ross. That's so much
Speaker 1: worse for some reason, I don't know why. It's like,
Speaker 1: it's literally kiss to you all day, but I don't
Speaker 1: want to use your toothbrush. Well, and beyond that, it's
Speaker 1: literally getting rinsed off as you pass it from yourself
Speaker 1: to the other person because you're deep underwater. No less
Speaker 1: well lake water, oh, lakewater than definitely some bacteria in
Speaker 1: there that I know none of us understand. Well, I
Speaker 1: think that's all of the Guinness World Record romance things
Speaker 1: we can cram into one episode, But there are off
Speaker 1: the deep end, hey you go, there are plenty more.
Speaker 1: In fact, I even have a bunch that are just
Speaker 1: X records. Yea, So maybe we'll do an after dark
Speaker 1: version of the record breaking episode. But hey, let us know,
Speaker 1: are you a Guinness World Record holder? Can you? I'm not.
Speaker 1: I'm not going to encourage any of you to try
Speaker 1: and beat any of these records. Don't try these at home.
Speaker 1: I don't want people passing out trying to kiss for
Speaker 1: seventy hours straight or um or renewing their vows. I
Speaker 1: mean you can go ahead, and I don't think that.
Speaker 1: I don't think you can get hurt doing that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know what, go for it. Let me know if
Speaker 1: you're gonna unless you're dragging yourself into debt for it.
Speaker 1: That's the only way you could really hurt yourselves. No,
Speaker 1: find those hundred dollar chapels, right, or like give your
Speaker 1: friend to get a certificate online and then you just
Speaker 1: buy him a beers do it at the place. Boom,
Speaker 1: You're done. Sounds good. Is there any paperwork involved with renewals?
Speaker 1: Do you have to file? I don't know. I think
Speaker 1: it's all. I don't think so. I think it's all.
Speaker 1: I don't think so. So it really could be that simple.
Speaker 1: That's how they got married to, right, So it's just
Speaker 1: like a simple little thing. I mean, they haven't efficient,
Speaker 1: so I don't know if they file anything, but I
Speaker 1: don't know either. Whatever, let us know, have you renewed
Speaker 1: your vows? What it go like? Tell us what you
