Speaker 1: Mother Knows Dad starring Nicole and Jemmy and Maria qk Hi.
Speaker 1: Everyone welcome The Mother Knows Death. Let's get started with
Speaker 1: the story of the week.
Speaker 2: So last week we opened the show with this horrible
Speaker 2: story about this stabbing that happened at a Taylor Swift
Speaker 2: dance class. Three little girls had died as a result,
Speaker 2: a bunch of other people were injured. Now this is escalated,
Speaker 2: and this whole terrorist plot involving the Error's tour was
Speaker 2: just unveiled in Vienna. It's so it's so scary because
Speaker 2: I think that it's safe to say that most people
Speaker 2: that have especially young children, but even like women your
Speaker 2: age and even my age, that they love Taylor Swift.
Speaker 1: I mean, just at this one concert alone, they were
Speaker 1: expected to have like sixty five thousand people there or something.
Speaker 1: There's just so many Taylor Swift fans, probably more of
Speaker 1: any pop star or music star in modern day history. Right.
Speaker 1: And to think so everybody knows someone that's a swiftye right,
Speaker 1: Like I personally am not and don't really get it,
Speaker 1: but my children certainly are. So it's just really scary
Speaker 1: to think that that now these crazy people are trying
Speaker 1: to hurt the fans of like this innocent music. It's
Speaker 1: just so it's so scary to me, and it's really
Speaker 1: sadistic because I feel like there's so many children there,
Speaker 1: you know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just so horrible. So basically what happened is
Speaker 2: in Austria yesterday they announced that a nineteen year old
Speaker 2: had been arrested. He seems like he was the mastermind
Speaker 2: of this plot. So I guess the tip came in
Speaker 2: from US intelligence that then alerted Austria that this was
Speaker 2: going on. And then they went into this guy's house
Speaker 2: and found bomb making materials, and in they also found
Speaker 2: counterfeit cash and a fake police light that he was
Speaker 2: maybe going to put in his card. They're thinking to
Speaker 2: try to get closer to the venue when this actually
Speaker 2: went down, So more information keeps rolling out about this.
Speaker 2: So just this morning they announced that a seventeen year
Speaker 2: old had also been arrested, and that seventeen year old
Speaker 2: had just gotten a job at the music venue a
Speaker 2: couple of days ago. So they're thinking that this is
Speaker 2: so scary. Yeah, it's so scary, and they're thinking that basically,
Speaker 2: you know, their plan was they were going to make
Speaker 2: the device and then have the employee of the venue
Speaker 2: go in and detonate it. And a fifteen year old
Speaker 2: is now involved in this too that they're saying they
Speaker 2: don't know if they if the fifteen year old knew
Speaker 2: that much about it, that they just knew about the plan.
Speaker 2: They don't know if they had anything to do with
Speaker 2: like developing the plan or getting any materials for it,
Speaker 2: but they were aware was happening, so obviously they're going
Speaker 2: to be responsible for this too. But there's also theories
Speaker 2: that with the police light and everything, they found that
Speaker 2: one of them had a plan to drive through the
Speaker 2: crowd when they were exiting from the bomb going off
Speaker 2: inside of the stadium. They had to cancel all three shows,
Speaker 2: which was, like you said, they were expecting around sixty
Speaker 2: five thousand people a night, so that's almost about two
Speaker 2: hundred thousand people over three nights and they had to cancel.
Speaker 1: Well, plus they plus we've been seeing on the news
Speaker 1: of past since she's been doing this tour that people
Speaker 1: gather outside of the stadium that either can't afford to
Speaker 1: go to the show or can't get tickets, So there's
Speaker 1: always that. Even happened when she came to Philly, remember
Speaker 1: the whole parking lots filled up with the of the
Speaker 1: stadiums and of the the Citizens Bank Park. When she came,
Speaker 1: they were all like listening outside of the stadium. So
Speaker 1: even and they estimate that there's like ten to fifteen
Speaker 1: thousand people outside of the stadium, So even that's just
Speaker 1: such a large amount of people. And yeah, like it's
Speaker 1: probably a soft security zone there, there's because it's just
Speaker 1: what you would do if you're going to the ballgame
Speaker 1: and talgating, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2: Yeah, So what happened was they figured out that in
Speaker 2: the last month, all three of them were radicalized by
Speaker 2: ISIS over the internet.
Speaker 1: They don't think that.
Speaker 2: ISIS orchestrated this account but this attack, but it was
Speaker 2: certainly inspired by stuff they've done in the past. And
Speaker 2: now there's this whole concern of like how is she
Speaker 2: going to go on tour and all these other cities. Obviously,
Speaker 2: people are really upset that the show's got canceled, But
Speaker 2: I think the government did the right thing in canceling
Speaker 2: all of the shows because I don't know if you
Speaker 2: know this, but there was a situation with Aria and
Speaker 2: a Grande a couple of years ago where apparently, you know,
Speaker 2: the government or the police got some tips that there
Speaker 2: was maybe going to be an attack at one of
Speaker 2: her concerts in England, and they kind of just blew
Speaker 2: it off, thinking it wasn't going to be anything, and
Speaker 2: then it did end up happening, and twenty two people
Speaker 2: died and hundreds of people were hurt.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I I the whole thing is so crazy, and
Speaker 1: I'm just thinking, I mean, obviously this is the scariest
Speaker 1: part of it, the terrorist thing, but then it's just
Speaker 1: also think about telling think about telling your kid that
Speaker 1: they're going to this errors tour. It's like every single
Speaker 1: child that I know, it's it's all they want to do,
Speaker 1: and then having to break it to them that it's
Speaker 1: not happening now and you don't even know if it's
Speaker 1: really ever going to happen. It reminds me, what do
Speaker 1: you think? It reminded me of when we when Maria
Speaker 1: was How old were you? Oh, do you know what
Speaker 1: I'm about to say? How old were you? I think
Speaker 1: I was thirteen. When she was thirteen, she was obsessed
Speaker 1: with this band called My Chemical.
Speaker 2: This band most of our listeners know what this.
Speaker 1: Band, well, this terrible band called they're the best band ever,
Speaker 1: my chemical romance, and she was obsessed with the guy
Speaker 1: who what was his name, Gerard, It was obsessed with
Speaker 1: all of them.
Speaker 2: They got food poisoning and they had to cancel the show.
Speaker 1: And I was devastating. Yeah, so yeah, so they got
Speaker 1: food poisoning and Maria like lost her shit. She and
Speaker 1: they said that they had to cancel and they were sorry,
Speaker 1: and then on top of that, they said they weren't
Speaker 1: going to be we got refunded, right like they never
Speaker 1: came back. They did, but it was a long time.
Speaker 1: I feel like it was the whole year afterwards, Yeah,
Speaker 1: it was, and she she was inconsolable, like cried herself
Speaker 1: to sleep. I think I let you stay home from
Speaker 1: school the next day. It was like a major drama.
Speaker 1: So I imagine that there's many parents going through this today
Speaker 1: for this weekend. Of course, you would definitely rather stay
Speaker 1: home than this happening. And honestly, if I heard that
Speaker 1: this happened and they still were putting on the show,
Speaker 1: I'm not sure that I would go because you can't
Speaker 1: really trust that that was all taken care of right away,
Speaker 1: Like they can't investigate it that much in a day.
Speaker 1: That's probably why they canceled it.
Speaker 2: Honestly, I think they did the right thing. Honestly, I
Speaker 2: mean obviously, like I even know people that recently traveled
Speaker 2: to Europe to go see her because the tickets are
Speaker 2: significantly cheaper, and then they get a little vacation out
Speaker 2: of it. I you know, people are going to be
Speaker 2: upset about that, But are you going to be pissed that,
Speaker 2: you know, your whole trip was around this event and
Speaker 2: it got canceled. Well, it's not like something stupid happened,
Speaker 2: Like this is a serious problem that could have killed
Speaker 2: a lot of people if it went down.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it's it's just kind of an unsuspecting thing.
Speaker 1: And it's awesome that we always talk about the bad
Speaker 1: things that happened, But then it's it's good to talk
Speaker 1: about when these things get unfolded before they actually happened,
Speaker 1: because this could have been just a really, a really
Speaker 1: horrible thing. And apparently they had some chemicals that were
Speaker 1: that were consistent with bombs and they were possibly talking
Speaker 1: about stabbing a bunch of people outside there was like
Speaker 1: all these machetes and knives found in the guy's apartment,
Speaker 1: and we know, I mean when when you're unsuspected, Like
Speaker 1: you're just standing in the parking lot with your glittery
Speaker 1: outfits on dancing to Taylor Swift music and some maniac
Speaker 1: comes through with a giant knife. He's going to be
Speaker 1: able to do like a lot of damage, especially with
Speaker 1: young children and smaller anatomy and stuff. It's just so
Speaker 1: freaking scary, man. I'm just I'm glad and hopefully they'll
Speaker 1: be able to get information off of these kids. You
Speaker 1: know that maybe other things are happening, but they got
Speaker 1: radicalized online, Like what can you do? It's they want
Speaker 1: to belong to a group. Everyone wants to belong to something,
Speaker 1: and that's what they chose to get involved with. And
Speaker 1: it almost like brainwashes people.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, this whole thing sucks. Like I'm obviously
Speaker 2: not one of her biggest fans, but I feel really
Speaker 2: horrible for her. Between this event happening last week. She
Speaker 2: was getting a lot of criticism before because that fan
Speaker 2: had died from the excessive heat. Now you have this
Speaker 2: and now you're like, isis knows my name?
Speaker 1: Cool?
Speaker 2: Like that would freak me out so bad. It's you
Speaker 2: know what I mean, It's extremely scary. I mean, I
Speaker 2: really hope that everybody around her is like being supportive
Speaker 2: and she's getting you can't like power through this. I
Speaker 2: feel like you have to have some mental health treatment
Speaker 2: to go through something like this knowing that like this
Speaker 2: possibly went down because of people celebrating you, you know,
Speaker 2: yeah yeah, And this is supposed to be like one
Speaker 2: of these core memories like a Girl My a millennial
Speaker 2: or gen Z girls are building, right, It's very scary
Speaker 2: to think that such an awesome event, you know, last summer,
Speaker 2: I saw Beyonce in the same exact setting at a
Speaker 2: big stadium. It was sold out, was packed with people.
Speaker 2: It's scary to think that like such an awesome fun
Speaker 2: night I had could have turned into something so terrible
Speaker 2: so quickly.
Speaker 1: So they said that they were going to refund the tickets,
Speaker 1: but how many tickets are actually sold through the venue.
Speaker 1: I feel like most of the taller Swift tickets are
Speaker 1: sold on like the sea gek type of websites. There's
Speaker 1: there's a process.
Speaker 2: I feel like everybody, for the most part, will get
Speaker 2: their money back, and I feel like because of her
Speaker 2: actions in the past, she'll make it right.
Speaker 1: Because I Gabe and I and the kids were supposed
Speaker 1: to go to a Phillies game in Indianapolis in April
Speaker 1: of twenty and twenty, which was right when the pandemic happened,
Speaker 1: right and we were because he was going to go
Speaker 1: present at some firefighter conference there, so we were like, oh,
Speaker 1: maybe it wasn't maybe it was in Chicago or something,
Speaker 1: but it was like around there when we were going
Speaker 1: to be on the trip. So we're like, oh, let's
Speaker 1: go see a Phillies game when we're not there while
Speaker 1: the pandemic happened and the Phillies weren't playing or they
Speaker 1: were doing that stupid thing where they were putting like
Speaker 1: cardboard cutouts of people's heads in the stadium or whatever,
Speaker 1: but we couldn't go to the game. It took us
Speaker 1: a whole entire calendar year to get our money back
Speaker 1: from that. Well, even though they canceled it. Things are
Speaker 1: different now, And I think because of that, because I
Speaker 1: had the same thing happened. I bought Ricky tickets to
Speaker 1: see Kiss for his birthday that year. I bought them
Speaker 1: in twenty nineteen. It was supposed to happen. Oh that
Speaker 1: was the lasting that you missed that honest.
Speaker 2: Whatever, I mean, he really really wanted to go, So
Speaker 2: it took me a year to get refunds for those
Speaker 2: tickets too. But I think because of that happening now
Speaker 2: things are much quicker. And I think because of the
Speaker 2: way she handles her business, which I really respect out
Speaker 2: of her that if it's not going well or she's
Speaker 2: getting a lot of crisis criticism, she'll pay for it
Speaker 2: out of her own.
Speaker 1: Pocket and figure it out later.
Speaker 2: She's that type of person from what I've gathered from
Speaker 2: other accounts, So I just feel horrible for her. I
Speaker 2: think this really sucks. This is like a really big
Speaker 2: accomplishment for her to have this tour. It's breaking all
Speaker 2: these records. She's become a billionaire because of it. And
Speaker 2: you know, people just can't have nice things.
Speaker 1: I don't know if they hire people to work at
Speaker 1: the stadium and stuff like, how do you like vet
Speaker 1: us out? I don't even know how you would do that.
Speaker 2: Well, I don't think you could vet them being seventeen
Speaker 2: years old and plotting a terrorist attack. But I think
Speaker 2: now with this in mind, we have to make sure
Speaker 2: employers are going through metal detectors the same way you
Speaker 2: are when you're going into a game. And you know,
Speaker 2: like people that work at the airport have to still
Speaker 2: go through security, so they need to treat it the
Speaker 2: same way.
Speaker 1: It's so upsetting. All right, let's talk about some other
Speaker 1: celebrity news.
Speaker 2: All right, So some on some later fair have an
Speaker 2: endless supply of these Olympic stories, but we're only picking
Speaker 2: certain ones, which has been difficult because there's just so many.
Speaker 2: But during the pole vaulting, during oh my god, that
Speaker 2: was so hard to say back to back pole vaulting.
Speaker 2: So during that competition, a I can't. I know if
Speaker 2: I try to say at fant it's gonna come out bad.
Speaker 2: A twenty one year old named Anthony Murati. He started
Speaker 2: his routine so as he launches himself on his poll,
Speaker 2: he's supposed to go over this bar like horizontal bar,
Speaker 2: but he didn't really launch himself enough, so he didn't
Speaker 2: clear the bar fully because his junk got caught on
Speaker 2: the bar, which then made him fall and made him
Speaker 2: lose his chance of getting a medal.
Speaker 1: This makes me think, because Gabe and I have been
Speaker 1: talking a lot about what's the Olympics right? Because these
Speaker 1: are all superior humans that have this ability to just
Speaker 1: do these athletics that most of us can't do And
Speaker 1: I personally think a lot of it is because some
Speaker 1: of them have anatomic advantages, right, Like Simone Biles is
Speaker 1: this little tiny peanut, right, that's an anatomic advantage. She's
Speaker 1: four foot eight. Most women aren't that small, so that
Speaker 1: could be to her advantage. Right. It's the same thing
Speaker 1: with Michael Phelps. He was six foot four and had
Speaker 1: a wingspan of six foot seven. Right, he just as
Speaker 1: compared to another guy that might be doing the same
Speaker 1: as act competition as him, he has an advantage because
Speaker 1: he's just longer and wider and could do things right.
Speaker 1: So it's this falls under the category of an anatomic disadvantage.
Speaker 1: I would say if this was this was a woman
Speaker 1: that didn't have this big uh thing hanging between her legs,
Speaker 1: then it wouldn't have gotten caught on the pole like that.
Speaker 2: I actually think that's an interesting argument because I feel like,
Speaker 2: because women have breast they have you know, bras that
Speaker 2: will compact the sport bras will compact your breasts and
Speaker 2: so they're as tight as possible for your body. Why
Speaker 2: isn't this guy wear bit similar underwear?
Speaker 1: This is why Serena Williams, ex coach said that he
Speaker 1: needs to get lessons from a drag queen and learn
Speaker 1: how to tuck his junk. Oh my god, this this
Speaker 1: was just it's true. It's really hanging out there. And
Speaker 1: I don't know if you saw the other articles about
Speaker 1: there's like all these articles about the swimmers and how
Speaker 1: big their penises are in their in their little tiny speedos.
Speaker 1: It's kind of funny because like, why why are they
Speaker 1: especially that guy, Like, if you have any loose clothing
Speaker 1: or anything hanging off of you when you're trying to
Speaker 1: do something where you're just trying to make clearance, I
Speaker 1: think like a giant penist flopping in the wind is
Speaker 1: probably not a good idea. I mean, the video is
Speaker 1: so crazy, like they keep oh it's viral. Everybody knows
Speaker 1: what we're talking about because everyone saw it on social media.
Speaker 2: There's just like, yeah, the best is they keep rep
Speaker 2: as with every sport, when something happens, they keep playing
Speaker 2: in slow motions. So you're literally seeing him like launch
Speaker 2: himself up, flip over, his dick gets stuck on the
Speaker 2: pole and then it like.
Speaker 1: Falls back and it's just wait, did you did you
Speaker 1: know that someone offered him two hundred and fifty thousand
Speaker 1: dollars to do pol I was getting there.
Speaker 2: So basically he's really upset because he didn't get the metal,
Speaker 2: but now he's getting these porn offers. So this company
Speaker 2: called cam Soda has offered him two hundred and fifty
Speaker 2: thousand dollars to do a one hour live stream because
Speaker 2: people are so obsessed with this virus. What does he
Speaker 2: have to what does he have to just show it off?
Speaker 2: I don't even know if he has to do anything.
Speaker 2: Does he have to take his well, he probably has
Speaker 2: to be.
Speaker 1: Nude, but.
Speaker 2: Everybody everybody's already seen is junk basically on the most public.
Speaker 1: We've all seen it. And I also heard that some
Speaker 1: underwear company gave him offered him a sponsorship as well,
Speaker 1: which is see that Timmy is like more appropriate because
Speaker 1: I think it kind of crawl, like it crosses a
Speaker 1: line to take it off and show the whole thing.
Speaker 1: But maybe I don't know. For two hundred and fifty
Speaker 1: thousand dollars that could be like life changing money. No.
Speaker 2: The best part of all of this for me is
Speaker 2: because after it happened, the commentators didn't know what to
Speaker 2: say because they're they're just on a national international broadcast,
Speaker 2: they don't know what to say, and finally somebody goes,
Speaker 2: he had a baguette at his pants.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, that's great.
Speaker 2: So I don't know, it's it's such a shame, you know.
Speaker 2: He was saying it was just a technical issue. He's like,
Speaker 2: I just didn't launch myself high enough basically, and it
Speaker 2: just got caught. So I know, it's just it's just
Speaker 2: kind of it's stilty, embarrassing. But at least he's getting
Speaker 2: some business opportunities out of it.
Speaker 1: And listen, like for the whole entire world to be
Speaker 1: talking about how big your penis is. I don't think
Speaker 1: he's he's upset about it, Like, let's.
Speaker 2: Be probably getting lots of dating inquiries for There's like
Speaker 2: a line around the block waiting for him. Yeah, because
Speaker 2: if you marry somebody like that, everybody's gonna be like,
Speaker 2: oh you go girl, that guy.
Speaker 1: Everybody knows what's going on with your ros a win.
Speaker 1: It's a wind wind all around.
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly. Also in Olympic news, there was a ton
Speaker 2: of controversy about the Cian River because it's notoriously one
Speaker 2: of the most disgusting bodies of water in the world.
Speaker 2: I mean, we live near the Schougle River, which is
Speaker 2: arguably the most disgusting body of water, but this one's
Speaker 2: pretty bad bad.
Speaker 1: I feel like the word Schookle though, just sounds gross,
Speaker 1: so it just makes it sound even nastier. But we
Speaker 1: absolutely would never I I don't even know that I
Speaker 1: would go tubing in the Schoogl River. No, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean, like eyeywhere near it? Definitely would not
Speaker 1: summerse your body in it, and especially a swimmer going underwater.
Speaker 1: That's outrageous.
Speaker 2: No. Yeah, And so apparently swimming in the CND was
Speaker 2: prohibited since nineteen twenty three, so they've known for one
Speaker 2: hundred years that it was very toxic. And then France
Speaker 2: got this over a billion dollar plan to redo the
Speaker 2: infrastructure and clean it up. They guaranteed it was all
Speaker 2: clean and good to go. The mayor of Paris even
Speaker 2: took a little swim in there to prove it was safe,
Speaker 2: like that's really really and then he went home and
Speaker 2: drank bleach seriously. So then before the races they were
Speaker 2: testing it and the acoli levels were apparently like five
Speaker 2: times I think actually it was ten times greater than
Speaker 2: what they should be, which is awesome.
Speaker 1: So there was all this contract. Wait, so do you
Speaker 1: know why what is E coli from poop? Yeah, it's
Speaker 1: from human shit, that's what it's from. So that's what
Speaker 1: they're testing to see the level of human shit in
Speaker 1: the Yeah.
Speaker 2: But then this I think I talked about this on
Speaker 2: another episode. So they kept reassuring everybody was safe, and
Speaker 2: all the people that lived there are like, it's not safe.
Speaker 2: So then this poop campaign popped up where everybody mapped
Speaker 2: out all the external all the branch of bodies of
Speaker 2: water that go into this end, and they're like, if
Speaker 2: you poop at this time, all the turds will get
Speaker 2: to this central place at this exact moment, so we
Speaker 2: can protest them putting our athletes in this body of water.
Speaker 2: Nobody wanted them to swim in this water. And why
Speaker 2: are these world class athletes being treated like such shit.
Speaker 2: They don't have air conditioning, they're given those weird cardboard beds.
Speaker 2: These are some of the best athletes in the world.
Speaker 1: I don't know, okay, they but like they should have
Speaker 1: advocates on their sides just saying that this isn't a
Speaker 1: good idea.
Speaker 2: So even last week during training sessions for the triathlon.
Speaker 2: They had to postpone them because the levels were not
Speaker 2: where they should have and then two days later they
Speaker 2: were miraculously better.
Speaker 1: Right, So they because somebody took water out of their
Speaker 1: hotel room and tested it and was like, oh, it's good,
Speaker 1: you know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they had a little cup hit. Like when you
Speaker 2: have to take a pee test.
Speaker 1: You yeah, like for a drug test you have like
Speaker 1: a pe vial like tape to your leg or something. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's like hotel water tape your life. That's all good, guys.
Speaker 2: So they let them go in and then there was
Speaker 2: this viral video of one of the swimmers puking repeatedly
Speaker 2: after swimming, and he came in defense of them and
Speaker 2: was like, no, I just swallowed a lot of water,
Speaker 2: okay ugh. And then yeah, so things just keep kind
Speaker 2: of going downhill. So now Belgium has completely dropped out.
Speaker 2: They're like, we're over it. Because one of their swimmers
Speaker 2: got really sick.
Speaker 1: Yeah, she had apparently she was violently vomiting in diarrhea
Speaker 1: and she had to go to the hospital because it
Speaker 1: was so bad. And this is the thing, like, she
Speaker 1: didn't have ecoli, so they did a good job testing that,
Speaker 1: but she did have a virus, which guess they didn't
Speaker 1: test for because human shit carries way more things than
Speaker 1: just ecoli, you know what I mean. So they were
Speaker 1: just testing for a major one that's not even just her.
Speaker 2: They said two other triathlon athletes from Portugal developed gastro
Speaker 2: intestinal infections after swimming in it on August fifth, so
Speaker 2: that was three days ago. Oh, that's awesome. And then
Speaker 2: another one of the Belgian athletes said, quote, while swimming
Speaker 2: under the bridge, I felt and saw things that we
Speaker 2: shouldn't think too much about.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, that's so nasty. Well not to mention.
Speaker 1: So you have this human component of it, but there's
Speaker 1: also pipes that are going into the water that are
Speaker 1: like spilloffs from factories with like oils and paints and
Speaker 1: toxic things as well that are going into the water
Speaker 1: which people shouldn't be exposed to. I mean, if you're
Speaker 1: gonna go like sit in the water for a photo
Speaker 1: op like the Mayer Dat or whatever, fine, but like
Speaker 1: going underwater and submerging your head and like having it
Speaker 1: go up into your nose and in your mouth and stuff.
Speaker 1: It's just it's just a terrible idea.
Speaker 2: I just can't help but think This is so fucked
Speaker 2: up that they just keep making them. You are building
Speaker 2: all these new facilities for all these sports, why can't
Speaker 2: you build them something No, they've known for a hundred years.
Speaker 2: This body of water is problematic because they wanted.
Speaker 1: The photo ops. That's all. It's ridiculous. Yeah, it really is.
Speaker 2: It's really not fair to them. I think moving forward,
Speaker 2: we're gonna have to evaluate how we're treating the athletes
Speaker 2: because also that's affecting people's performances.
Speaker 1: Well yeah, I mean, imagine having to miss out on
Speaker 1: performances because you're in the hospital, and like, who feels
Speaker 1: like competing when you when you have you know, when
Speaker 1: you have a fever and you feel like you're going
Speaker 1: to die. I mean that takes a while to get
Speaker 1: over and you can't just like get out of the
Speaker 1: hospital and go perform the performance of your life the
Speaker 1: next day. You know.
Speaker 2: One of the Olympians said the village is so uncomfortable
Speaker 2: to sleep, and he's literally been sleeping on the grass
Speaker 2: in the park. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I saw that. I saw that. It's unbelievable. It's kind
Speaker 1: of amazing because I feel like a couple of weeks ago,
Speaker 1: I stayed at an Airbnb or bed and breakfast or something,
Speaker 1: and the bed was so uncomfortable And this was like
Speaker 1: two whole weeks ago, and my back still hurts. So
Speaker 1: think about what level of that their bodies are in
Speaker 1: right now that they could sleep in a ball under
Speaker 1: a park bench and like win a gold medal. It's
Speaker 1: kind of amazing.
Speaker 2: No, it is amazing. And I guess you know, we're
Speaker 2: hearing a lot about the negative experience. Have you heard
Speaker 2: about the chocolate chip muffin guy? One of the Olympians
Speaker 2: is obsessed with the muffins they have there, and he
Speaker 2: just keeps making like hundreds of tiktoks about how amazing
Speaker 2: the chocolate chip muffins they have. But it's just like
Speaker 2: so silly with all this other shit going on. So
Speaker 2: I don't know, I feel really bad for these people.
Speaker 2: I don't blame them for dropping out. At least they're prioritizing,
Speaker 2: you know, the safety and health of their country's athletes
Speaker 2: and just being like, we'll deal with it because it's
Speaker 2: time to shine. So yeah, all right, our next one, So,
Speaker 2: zach Efron was vacationing in Abitha.
Speaker 1: However you say.
Speaker 2: That, So he was at this villa so apparently he
Speaker 2: dove into the pool there and he hit the bottom
Speaker 2: with his chest and then ingested a large amount of
Speaker 2: water into his lungs, got dazed and confused when they
Speaker 2: pulled him out of the water and he had to
Speaker 2: go to the hospital.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's so scary. I mean, I guess the water
Speaker 1: maybe wasn't deep enough that I'm like really scared, would
Speaker 1: be scared to dive unless I knew for a fact
Speaker 1: that the pool was really deep.
Speaker 2: You know, it's kind of accident prone. Do you know
Speaker 2: what happened with his jaw? I think I remember that,
Speaker 2: But what refreshed my memory, like ten years ago, he
Speaker 2: said he was walking around his house in socks and
Speaker 2: he slipped on the floor, and I guess maybe he
Speaker 2: was outside he hit his face on a fountain at
Speaker 2: the house, and then he had to get like reconstructive
Speaker 2: jaw surgery. So if you see pictures of him from
Speaker 2: then to now, his face looks drastically different, and everybody's like, oh,
Speaker 2: he had botched plastic surgery, But no, he actually had.
Speaker 1: Actually I was actually thinking that when I was looking
Speaker 1: at pictures of him, I was like, he don't he
Speaker 1: doesn't look like he used to look, but I actually didn't.
Speaker 2: You know, I don't think I've really seen him in
Speaker 2: all that much. And since that accident happened, I guess
Speaker 2: I saw him when he played Ted Bundy in that
Speaker 2: net Flick's movie, and I didn't think he looked too different.
Speaker 2: But he was just in this really good movie about
Speaker 2: this wrestling family. And I guess because he got like
Speaker 2: so jacked up for that movie too. It just in
Speaker 2: his neck becoming so muscular. It was just so apparent
Speaker 2: how different his face is now. Yeah, and that's just
Speaker 2: kind of how he looks. I just feel bad. And
Speaker 2: he was like, I didn't even realize people were criticizing
Speaker 2: the way I.
Speaker 1: Looked till my mom told me that's classic. Mother, So
Speaker 1: he So, you can have something called secondary drowning, which
Speaker 1: is when you go underwater if you swallow a large
Speaker 1: amount of water. This happened to everybody, you know, when
Speaker 1: you're like coughing a lot. It happens to the kid's more.
Speaker 1: But if you get a lot of water in your lungs,
Speaker 1: it could damage the lining of your lungs and then
Speaker 1: that could eventually lead to something called pulmonary edema. So
Speaker 1: you it wouldn't be a classic like you're pulling a
Speaker 1: kid out of the pool or even an adult out
Speaker 1: of the pool that's that's unconscious and you get out
Speaker 1: and you're still you're having difficulty breathing, and a kid
Speaker 1: slowly get worse over twenty four hours, And maybe they
Speaker 1: were concerned that he had something like that, and that's
Speaker 1: why they brought him to the hospital because he just
Speaker 1: seemed like he was a little lethargic. But I think
Speaker 1: when he got to the hospital and they did the
Speaker 1: x ray, there was no evidence of water in his lungs,
Speaker 1: and so he probably just like had a normal swallow
Speaker 1: like a kid does with one of those bit bad coughs,
Speaker 1: and sometimes if you cough a lot, you can get
Speaker 1: like a little dizzy and stuff. You know. He they
Speaker 1: were going to release them right away, and I guess
Speaker 1: there was a lot of paparazzi outside, so they ended
Speaker 1: up keeping them overnight. But he was fine, and he
Speaker 1: actually posted a picture the next day of himself like
Speaker 1: laying on one of those what are those balls called
Speaker 1: the you know those big sound like the ex I
Speaker 1: think medicine the medicine balls, like that little dude that
Speaker 1: you like that you throw. It's it's like that big one, Oh,
Speaker 1: I don't know, you know, the one you could lay
Speaker 1: on and do like whatever. Anyway, it's a giant He's
Speaker 1: like laying on it with these big dumbbells in his hand,
Speaker 1: like working out. So like the next day, so I
Speaker 1: think he was fine. They probably just got like spooked
Speaker 1: because of it. I think they.
Speaker 2: I'll worry too, because I don't know if this timeline's accurate.
Speaker 2: But what I was reading online was that these TikTok
Speaker 2: surfaced of him at a nightclub apparently that day, so
Speaker 2: there was questions of if he was drunk or not. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I don't really feel like I could be totally wrong.
Speaker 2: I don't feel like I've ever heard he's a big
Speaker 2: drinker or anything. I don't feel like we often see
Speaker 2: pictures of him partying and doing stuff like that. Well,
Speaker 2: but maybe I'm wrong.
Speaker 1: I mean, why would you go to a nightclub?
Speaker 2: I don't know, so people like hang out at a
Speaker 2: nightclub to like I don't know. But over the weekend,
Speaker 2: when we stayed at Harrah's on Friday night, and our
Speaker 2: room was right above the pool, which at nighttime turns
Speaker 2: into the nightclub, and you could watch through the glass
Speaker 2: ceiling everybody like grinding on each other.
Speaker 1: It was so weird.
Speaker 2: No thanks, All right, let's get into freak accidents. At
Speaker 2: a minor league baseball game in Maryland, they had this
Speaker 2: bounce house set up for kids. I don't know if
Speaker 2: every ballpark has like a kid area. You know how
Speaker 2: Citizens Bank Park has that whole area where the kids
Speaker 2: could do the fake rock climbing and hit baseballs and stuff.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, most like our our baseball fields have
Speaker 1: a playground.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so I guess that they had it set up
Speaker 2: in this area. And then a giant gust of wind
Speaker 2: came through, causing the bounce house to launch fifteen to
Speaker 2: twenty feet in the air, and then it landed on
Speaker 2: the playing field in the middle of the game, and
Speaker 2: as a result, a five year old got life threatening
Speaker 2: injuries and was pronounced dead later that night. We just
Speaker 2: talked about this back in May, right, so I feel
Speaker 2: like it's kind of a repeat story. And I don't
Speaker 2: know when I feel like, when you rent those things,
Speaker 2: don't they put those big steaks that like put them
Speaker 2: into the ground kind of, I guess, But is that
Speaker 2: really Maybe it's enough, like think about it we're having.
Speaker 2: This was a Maryland so especially over the last week,
Speaker 2: we've been having really bad storms and it's been so nay, yeah,
Speaker 2: we have.
Speaker 1: I mean we've lost a bunch of trees in our
Speaker 1: neighborhood and stuff. But I mean, was it storming or
Speaker 1: it just was like I mean, sometimes that happens that
Speaker 1: there's just really big raining, not an active storm. I
Speaker 1: don't think it was.
Speaker 2: Raining, but they'll build up to that. Like we had
Speaker 2: that really horrible storm on Tuesday here, so the days
Speaker 2: leading up to it, I feel like it was really
Speaker 2: windy more than normal.
Speaker 1: So this happened also another time this year too, Like
Speaker 1: it's the third time I've heard of this happening this year.
Speaker 1: So it's a thing. I mean not three times out
Speaker 1: of all the times people use bounce houses, but it's
Speaker 1: something to be aware of. And it's it's obviously more
Speaker 1: dangerous when there's only one or two kids in there
Speaker 1: because they don't weigh anything. You know, like a five
Speaker 1: year old, what are they weigh? Forty fifty pounds like nothing.
Speaker 1: It's not that it could easily get I mean, if
Speaker 1: you think about things outside like picnic tables and stuff
Speaker 1: could get lifted up with the wind. They they're sometimes
Speaker 1: heavier than that, so surely it could lift up a child.
Speaker 1: The bounce house weighs nothing, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: It's so sad to hear like a child dying when
Speaker 1: they're playing. It's so terrible.
Speaker 2: It is terrible, I guess, just like if you guys
Speaker 2: are ever going to rent a bounty house or something,
Speaker 2: just make sure it's secured as much as possible. I mean,
Speaker 2: I'm sure these people it was at a ballpark. I'm
Speaker 2: sure they were on top of a two and just
Speaker 2: shit have I.
Speaker 1: Mean, ultimately, like sticking that stuff in the ground isn't
Speaker 1: going to hold it down if I mean no, it's
Speaker 1: just yeah.
Speaker 2: The pictures were really disturbing because it was like the
Speaker 2: thing upside down on the baseball field. The players were
Speaker 2: running towards it. Like it's just a bad scene to
Speaker 2: have want when you're trying to have like a nice
Speaker 2: family night out. All right, So this next one, So
Speaker 2: in Virginia, a guy ordered two steak cheesy street chiloopas
Speaker 2: from Taco Bell. He took a couple of bites, then
Speaker 2: suddenly felt this pain in the back of his neck.
Speaker 2: In the back of his throat. Sorry, So he goes
Speaker 2: to cough it up and it gets lodged in his teeth, which,
Speaker 2: what could this possibly be? Like, what would you be
Speaker 2: thinking at this point? Is in your mouth part of
Speaker 2: the food?
Speaker 1: I don't know, But sometimes when you chew, you get
Speaker 1: like something's like very hard and then you go this
Speaker 1: is what he did. He went back and was like, wait,
Speaker 1: what was that like my teeth grinding? Or did I
Speaker 1: just hit something hard? And then it that's when it
Speaker 1: got stuck in his teeth. Yeah, So then he finally
Speaker 1: coughs it out and starts looking at it, and it's
Speaker 1: somebody's nose piercing. It's so gross. It's like one of
Speaker 1: those It's like the piercings that Maria and I have
Speaker 1: that it's like a little diamond on one side and
Speaker 1: the other end of it is like a flat area
Speaker 1: so ours the flat area on the back is so
Speaker 1: thick that it would never be able to come through
Speaker 1: the hole because it's so it's the disc is very
Speaker 1: big on the back. But for whatever reason, this particular
Speaker 1: nose rang the little end of it that goes inside
Speaker 1: of the nose is so small that it probably just
Speaker 1: ripped right through the entire piercing. Like maybe if someone sneezed, yeah,
Speaker 1: because that's that is really disgusting. But how else, how
Speaker 1: else could you explain it falling out into someone's CHELUPA.
Speaker 2: I don't know, because like I play with mine a
Speaker 2: lot and it will come out, but it would never
Speaker 2: just like if I bent my face for it, it
Speaker 2: would never just fall out. Like I have to be
Speaker 2: physically touching it to like dislodge it and have it
Speaker 2: fall out.
Speaker 1: That's interesting. I never had mine come out when I
Speaker 1: I like haven't tried to. I've only taken it out
Speaker 1: like four times in my life.
Speaker 2: I I just I remember when I got it done.
Speaker 2: I have one of the snap ones, so like I
Speaker 2: remember the girl at the piercing place told me to
Speaker 2: bend it a little bit so it stayed in better.
Speaker 2: And I think because I've had it for god, I've
Speaker 2: had to have had it for fourteen years now.
Speaker 1: That I just need to fix it.
Speaker 2: I mean I haven't had the same exact jewel for
Speaker 2: fifteen years, but I haven't messed with this one in
Speaker 2: a while. So and a lot of people on Instagram
Speaker 2: actually think you have a mole there, And I have
Speaker 2: a piercing to replicate your mole because yours, I guess,
Speaker 2: just looks darker.
Speaker 1: Well mine's black. Oh yeah, but I had I had
Speaker 1: a like a diamond one to but I don't know,
Speaker 1: I lost it and I haven't been there in like
Speaker 1: years to get a new one. I just need to
Speaker 1: like go do that, I guess some.
Speaker 2: Day, That's what I'm saying, Like I've probably had this
Speaker 2: exact one for ten years.
Speaker 1: But yeah, seriously, this is gross. And the guy so
Speaker 1: the guy like posted it online. It's like the typical
Speaker 1: story we're hearing, like called the place, and they really
Speaker 1: just didn't seem too concerned with this, right, But again,
Speaker 1: it's like the manager of the taco bell could be
Speaker 1: anywhere from like a teenager to a disgruntled forty five
Speaker 1: year old guy. I don't know, right, I think about
Speaker 1: whenever I think about like managers at fast food joints.
Speaker 1: I just thing because I worked at Boston Market back
Speaker 1: in the day, but that was what it was called
Speaker 1: Boston Chicken, So it was like forever ago, and I
Speaker 1: had like a couple different managers and which ranged from
Speaker 1: like a pimply teenager to like a disgruntled forty five
Speaker 1: year old divorced a so so, yeah, that's what I
Speaker 1: think of. But yeah, they didn't give a shit. So
Speaker 1: they went on what like Reddit or something to post
Speaker 1: the pictures to spread awareness about what's happening at Taco Bell.
Speaker 1: But seriously, though, if you if you swallow a piercing,
Speaker 1: it it's a problem because, especially like that little one,
Speaker 1: it could get stuck, just like it got in his teeth,
Speaker 1: like in his gi track somewhere, So if he swallowed it,
Speaker 1: he would have had to get monitored. At least. They
Speaker 1: probably want to make sure that it went through and
Speaker 1: went out with his poop. I'm not sure if it
Speaker 1: got past the stomach if they would do anything more
Speaker 1: like any more extreme interventions for something like so small
Speaker 1: like that, but they want to make sure that it
Speaker 1: throw okay because it could get stuck and cause like
Speaker 1: a ton of problems. You know. Well, the thing is.
Speaker 2: The Taco Bell manager, a teenager or not, was really
Speaker 2: adamant that it didn't come from their kitchen. And how
Speaker 2: do you know that? Like I would assume because when
Speaker 2: I worked at Bath and body Works, they made a
Speaker 2: huge deal out of me not having the piercing. And
Speaker 2: I'm like so my manager could have a horrible spray
Speaker 2: tan and her hair could be green because she like
Speaker 2: went in the pool with shittily bleached hair.
Speaker 1: But I can't have it. It wasn't even dyed green.
Speaker 1: It was just like green. It was like like chlorine
Speaker 1: Laurie Charin. And I'm like, I can't have a diamond
Speaker 1: on my face, but this lady can look like this.
Speaker 1: This is fair right? Anyway?
Speaker 2: I couldn't get it out one day and they maybe
Speaker 2: put a band aid on my face, which was like,
Speaker 2: that doesn't look worse anyway. What I'm getting at is,
Speaker 2: who's really like, is this teenage manager? Whoever really policing
Speaker 2: somebody wearing a nose ring? Sometimes nose rings on The
Speaker 2: nose ring in question was one of those really really
Speaker 2: tiny ones that you can't even notice somebody has in
Speaker 2: sometimes Yeah.
Speaker 1: It looks like is it? Yeah? So are we really
Speaker 1: policing that? Well? I guess maybe he knows that no
Speaker 1: one on his shift has a nose ring. But maybe
Speaker 1: it was from another shift.
Speaker 2: Maybe it was from another shift, they're saying, maybe it
Speaker 2: came from the factory where the stuff was produced. Maybe
Speaker 2: that person sneezed and they didn't realize it was lodged
Speaker 2: in all their boogers and then it just fell out.
Speaker 1: All right, let's talk about something a little believe it
Speaker 1: or not, there's something even more gross coming up.
Speaker 2: There's always something more gross on this podcast, especially in
Speaker 2: the gross room. So in Vietnam, a thirty one year
Speaker 2: old man was admitted to the hospital for severe abdominal pain,
Speaker 2: and there the doctors learned that the man had slipped
Speaker 2: a live two foot long eel up his anus earlier
Speaker 2: that day.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so like a typical day at work in the er,
Speaker 1: you know, and I think by now anybody that works
Speaker 1: in the er is used to these rectal foreign bodies.
Speaker 1: And you know, usually when they do the x ray,
Speaker 1: they'll see like a sh shampoo bottle or a dildo,
Speaker 1: like a really big one, you know. But no, in
Speaker 1: this case, when they did the x ray, they saw
Speaker 1: a skeleton of a freaking eel up inside of this guy. Right.
Speaker 1: Imagin't working at the hospital and seeing that, no, I
Speaker 1: mean that, Like, that's why the er is like kind
Speaker 1: of a cool place to work, because you just see
Speaker 1: the most outrageous shit, you know. So they see this,
Speaker 1: So the doctors are like, okay, we got to try
Speaker 1: to take this out. And they go to examine his
Speaker 1: rectum to see like where it is, how far up
Speaker 1: it is whatever, And no they can't see it because
Speaker 1: there's a lime up there, a lime like the fruit
Speaker 1: a lot.
Speaker 2: He's stuck up the eel up, let it wiggle its
Speaker 2: way up, and then stuck a whole lime to plug
Speaker 2: it up like it was gonna.
Speaker 1: Get it in there. Yeah, well he did. Yeah like that.
Speaker 1: It's seriously, is like so disturbing you wouldn't even believe it,
Speaker 1: but it, but it's true. So they had to cut
Speaker 1: open his abdomen, which they they would have had to
Speaker 1: do anyway, because what happened was the eel because you
Speaker 1: know they have teeth right, it ate through his rectum
Speaker 1: and ended up in his abdominal cavity, which was why
Speaker 1: he was having abdominal pain. So they had to do
Speaker 1: that anyway to get it out. And they pulled the
Speaker 1: eel out and the eel was still freaking alive. It's
Speaker 1: so disgusting.
Speaker 2: I feel like maybe we should have a new category
Speaker 2: called Stranger than Fiction because some of these are just
Speaker 2: so outrageous.
Speaker 1: It's so outrageous, like so all of these people I
Speaker 1: posted this in the grocer room a couple of days ago,
Speaker 1: and all of these members in the grocer room were
Speaker 1: just like, what do you think that they did with
Speaker 1: the eel? And and I'm just like, I don't know,
Speaker 1: because I've never gotten a live animal in pathology, and
Speaker 1: I personally think that they would call like animal Services
Speaker 1: to come to the hospital and get it. I don't
Speaker 1: think that they would send it to pathology. I know
Speaker 1: cases where people in pathology have gotten dead animals, but
Speaker 1: they certainly an animal that's alive, that could still live
Speaker 1: its life, they're gonna call. They're gonna call animal Control
Speaker 1: to come pick it up so they can try to
Speaker 1: keep it alive. I guess, yeah, do you gonna ye?
Speaker 2: Like when they take it out, do they have to
Speaker 2: put it in like a tank of water? Do they
Speaker 2: have to put it in a specimen bag?
Speaker 1: I don't know, because I don't know how to take
Speaker 1: care of an eel. They're they're they're not you know
Speaker 1: what I mean? Is it a d I don't know
Speaker 1: how the people, I don't know what they did. They
Speaker 1: they always write these stories and they don't tell us
Speaker 1: the details that we want to hear. You know what,
Speaker 1: I mean, so like what happened to the eel? Is
Speaker 1: the eel and like some kind of rehabilitation center, you know,
Speaker 1: is it getting therapy? Like what's happening here? I don't
Speaker 1: even know what you would do in this situation. Wait, well,
Speaker 1: this is really kind of the craziest part of this
Speaker 1: is that we talked about a similar case like this
Speaker 1: on this podcast right like months ago, and it happened
Speaker 1: even before that as well, So like this apparently this
Speaker 1: is the thing. Like I don't know if this is
Speaker 1: like on the Hush Hush in the in the sex Fetish.
Speaker 2: Underground, you know, because of the wiggling, it really gets
Speaker 2: you off.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I mean it's that. That's why I
Speaker 1: called the post live sex Show, because it's like live,
Speaker 1: you know, it's like the closest thing to having like
Speaker 1: real sex. I guess, I don't know. It's not a vibrator,
Speaker 1: it's it's it's a real animal. It's just so bizarre
Speaker 1: to me.
Speaker 2: Where does one acquire an eel of this nature?
Speaker 1: Well, I don't know. You can get them fishing, you
Speaker 1: could get them. Can't you get them? Like I feel
Speaker 1: like I've seen them at at the at the groceries,
Speaker 1: like a certain grocery stars they have like live fish. Sure, no,
Speaker 1: they're like in the aquarium. I don't know, because well,
Speaker 1: i've seen them at restaurants. We were just in a
Speaker 1: meeting earlier today and on the call, they said they
Speaker 1: caught an eel fishing. I'm like, I've never even heard
Speaker 1: of that around our area, at least catching an eel
Speaker 1: while fishing. I guess it's I just never thought about it,
Speaker 1: But I don't know. Yeah, and they're slimey.
Speaker 2: I just wouldn't consider I just wouldn't consider them to
Speaker 2: be easy to come by.
Speaker 1: So well, maybe you can just get them in certain areas.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I think people eat them. So it's
Speaker 1: like you can get them like you could get a lobster,
Speaker 1: like a live lobster, you can get a live eal.
Speaker 2: Side note, I saw this article today about this rare
Speaker 2: orange lobster that had lobster babies, and all of them
Speaker 2: were orange too, and they were really cute. They were
Speaker 2: like this big.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, all right, all right, next door, totally
Speaker 1: relevant as you. I just thought it was cute. They
Speaker 1: were rare, just like gingers. All right.
Speaker 2: Two astronauts took the new Boeing star Line spacecraft to
Speaker 2: the International Space Station in June. They were only supposed
Speaker 2: to be up there for a week, but shocker, because
Speaker 2: it's Boeing, something went horribly wrong.
Speaker 1: This is well, you know that the longest time that
Speaker 1: somebody has been in space has been four hundred and
Speaker 1: thirty seven days, so it's not unheard of for somebody
Speaker 1: to be up there long, and we know that a
Speaker 1: human can survive up there for that long. But they
Speaker 1: were only supposed to be up there for a week, right,
Speaker 1: and so what's their supplies looking like? And well they're
Speaker 1: saying that they might be up there until early twenty
Speaker 1: twenty five.
Speaker 2: That's like so far away? Do you fuck this up
Speaker 2: so bad?
Speaker 1: Like you have to be a superior human as far
Speaker 1: as your mental capabilities are concerned, because if you told
Speaker 1: me I had to stay like in Disney World an
Speaker 1: extra day, I would have a meltdown, Like when I'm
Speaker 1: ready to go home from vacation. I'm ready to go home,
Speaker 1: like I bought my bed, I want my stuff.
Speaker 2: I expect astronauts to know that they the timeline is
Speaker 2: probably not exact like they probably assume. Yeah, but you
Speaker 2: not a week maybe almost a year, so they've been
Speaker 2: up there for two months already, and the current plan
Speaker 2: because their space Shuttle failed and like isn't working, so
Speaker 2: they can't come home right now, but they're stuck at
Speaker 2: the International Space Station. So the plan right now is
Speaker 2: that SpaceX is going to be sending a aircraft up
Speaker 2: there in September. I mean that still all has to
Speaker 2: go down well too, and then they're not planning over
Speaker 2: turning until February, so they would have to get them
Speaker 2: and bring them home in February.
Speaker 1: So I went to you weren't with us at this time.
Speaker 1: When I went to Kennedy Space Center and we had
Speaker 1: breakfast with an astronaut. It was so cool because we
Speaker 1: got to ask them like a bunch of questions.
Speaker 2: Was it one on one or was it like a
Speaker 2: group sitting? It was a group, but there was.
Speaker 1: Probably only like ten to fifteen people there, so it
Speaker 1: was we had enough time to ask multiple questions. And
Speaker 1: one of the things I really didn't realize is how
Speaker 1: much the human body is affected going up into space.
Speaker 1: And he was just telling us the coolest stuff, like
Speaker 1: when you get off, like you can't walk really and
Speaker 1: you have to go into isolation. Because they're afraid that
Speaker 1: you're going to have like space germs and all this
Speaker 1: kind of stuff. It's it's kind of cool. So your
Speaker 1: you know, your body is made to function on Earth
Speaker 1: with gravity, so when there's no gravity, it just affects
Speaker 1: every single system, your cardiovascular system, your brain, everything like that.
Speaker 1: So just being up there alone is a lot of
Speaker 1: strain on the human body. But they're at the aren't
Speaker 1: they like at the International Space Station. I think that
Speaker 1: there's like stuff up there, right, food and everything like
Speaker 1: that that they need.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but they must if they must have enough stuff. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I think there's supplies for now. But I what I'm
Speaker 2: gathering is that if SpaceX strip doesn't go as planned
Speaker 2: up there at that time, that they could run out
Speaker 2: of supplies.
Speaker 1: Do you think they're freaking out? Seriously? I would be
Speaker 1: freaking out. There has to be there has to be
Speaker 1: this small part of you that's like, well, what happens
Speaker 1: if it's just me and you and they're both male
Speaker 1: and female, right, Like it's just us for for like,
Speaker 1: we don't know if anyone's ever going to get us
Speaker 1: like this, we might just be like the last of
Speaker 1: each other until this thing, until we just would they starve.
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't even know. That's just terrible.
Speaker 2: Actually, I feel like I would get like the same,
Speaker 2: Like I feel like claustrophobic just thinking about it, just
Speaker 2: being trapped somewhere you can't leave at all.
Speaker 1: Like if you're trapped in another state and someone says
Speaker 1: they're coming to pick you up, there's a certain sense
Speaker 1: of relief because you know that, like there's a ninety
Speaker 1: nine percent probability that the car is going to show
Speaker 1: up and pick you up.
Speaker 2: But you also know if they didn't show up, you
Speaker 2: could figure out a way to get it. You could
Speaker 2: get a buck, yeah, like something, take a bit here,
Speaker 2: And it's like the probability of things going wrong and
Speaker 2: whether or not cooperating and everything else is just it
Speaker 2: just you always I get Mouse from County Space Center
Speaker 2: all the time, Like launches can'cel launches can't. Like it's
Speaker 2: it just happens all the time because it has to
Speaker 2: be perfect conditions. So there would just be a small
Speaker 2: part of me that was was definitely freaking out about that.
Speaker 2: But I guess maybe they're trained to like not let
Speaker 2: their brain go there, you know. Yeah, I'm sure they
Speaker 2: have extensive training that they're like probably mildly freaking out,
Speaker 2: but they're also more than likely prepared for something like
Speaker 2: this to happen, and like.
Speaker 1: What about their like what about their families and stuff?
Speaker 1: You know what I mean. That's just so I don't
Speaker 1: even know like how i'd feel. I guess when when
Speaker 1: you're sending someone off in that situation, you're kind of
Speaker 1: always like preparing for the worst, hoping for the best
Speaker 1: kind of a thing. I feel like this is giving lawsuits,
Speaker 1: So I don't you want to you want to sue everything?
Speaker 1: I don't want to do it. They definitely signed a
Speaker 1: waiver and they know that this was like they probably
Speaker 1: sign a waiver. That's just like you're gonna blow up
Speaker 1: in a thousand pieces probably, like that's just what's happen.
Speaker 1: But I just don't trust it. You don't trust anything, please,
Speaker 1: I don't.

Speaker 2: for more info and to sign up. All right, let's
Speaker 2: get started with true crime. All right, So in Florida,
Speaker 2: this mom is with her three kids. They're hanging up
Speaker 2: pictures in their house, and then, in the most classy
Speaker 2: way possible, the mother says to her twelve year old,
Speaker 2: have you ever been screwed in the ass?
Speaker 1: What the fuck is wrong with her?
Speaker 2: Who says something like this is she like, do you
Speaker 2: think that she's like high on drugs seriously or like
Speaker 2: drunk or something? She has to be because even in
Speaker 2: a joking sense, that's a little kid, like, what.
Speaker 1: Are you doing? So no, it's it's weird for sure.
Speaker 2: She quite literally takes an electric screwdriver, hits the button,
Speaker 2: and drives a screw into the twelve year old's butt cheek, yeah.
Speaker 1: To the point where it left the mark. The kid
Speaker 1: had to take the screw out of her butt cheek. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so she was arrested, charged with child abuse rightfully, So,
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know what. There's no more information
Speaker 1: on the story. So apparently she posted bond and got out.
Speaker 1: Hopefully the kid is not with her anymore. I mean,
Speaker 1: I hope the kid reported it to somebody. Somebody did
Speaker 1: clearly because the mom got arrested. But I hope the
Speaker 1: kids have all been removed from the situation clear like,
Speaker 1: clearly it's fucked up. So I don't know. Yeah, it's
Speaker 1: it's just so weird when you there's a couple stories
Speaker 1: that you're just like read and you're like, did this
Speaker 1: really happen? Like, so think about this. It's like a
Speaker 1: mom and kids and they're going they have a house
Speaker 1: that they're trying to make look nicer by hanging up
Speaker 1: picture frames like what. I don't understand how it went
Speaker 1: downhill so bad? I don't know either.
Speaker 2: It just it seems so ridiculous to even say, all right.
Speaker 2: A couple of weeks ago, a transit cleaner for MTA
Speaker 2: in New York reported that he had been attacked around
Speaker 2: three am while cleaning a train. So he said that
Speaker 2: a stranger had come up to him and slashed his hands.
Speaker 2: So then police are reviewing the surveillance video only to
Speaker 2: find out that he did it himself.
Speaker 1: Yes, so I guess. At first he said that it
Speaker 1: was too damn hot to work down there, which I
Speaker 1: mean he's kind of right the subway in the sim
Speaker 1: in New York, so the smell is very the smell
Speaker 1: is very specific, and the heat hitting you, but I
Speaker 1: mean call out of work like a normal person. So
Speaker 1: so yeah, then he said, Now I don't know if
Speaker 1: he's just saying this to try to get out of trouble,
Speaker 1: but then he said he did it for love. Yeah.
Speaker 2: He claimed he had a girlfriend that had quote two
Speaker 2: brain surgeries and caused brain leakage. What is brain leakage?
Speaker 1: I have no idea. I'm assuming that I don't know
Speaker 1: why the person had brain surgery. It could have been
Speaker 1: spinal fluid of some sort, or just blood coming from
Speaker 1: a wound. I have no idea.
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, they were like bullshit. He has a fuck
Speaker 2: the Police tattoo on his arm, which is dedication. And
Speaker 2: then he served two stints in state prison on robbery
Speaker 2: and gun charges.
Speaker 1: But I don't know.
Speaker 2: He seemed remorseful. Of this because he said he was
Speaker 2: trying to change his life around. He was trying to
Speaker 2: get a bad surgerygree. He had this job, he liked it,
Speaker 2: But then again, it's not really clear. He first said
Speaker 2: it was too hot to work, then he said, you know,
Speaker 2: he was doing it for love, and it seems like
Speaker 2: he kind of just wanted the summer off. So this
Speaker 2: isn't really model employee behavior.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I just think like he's like, he doesn't regret
Speaker 1: doing it, but he's like, if I did it again,
Speaker 1: I wouldn't do it in front of security cameras. But
Speaker 1: even though he admits that he knew there were security
Speaker 1: cameras everywhere, it's just kind of like, not the smartest
Speaker 1: criminal ever. But yeah, and it's an interesting way to
Speaker 1: get out of work. And I'm like, you've been in
Speaker 1: the prison two times for other crimes. You didn't think
Speaker 1: of something as obvious as security cameras. Yeah, there's a
Speaker 1: loose screw somewhere. All right, let's get into medical news.
Speaker 1: An actress is claiming that her floor dios ceiling windows
Speaker 1: in her luxury apartment exposed her to so much ultra
Speaker 1: violet radiation that she developed lesions on her face. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so she goes to the doctor because she has these
Speaker 1: lesions on her face. She also should mention that she
Speaker 1: has a history of melanoma, so she got these new
Speaker 1: I would say she got some kind of maybe precancerous
Speaker 1: lesions on her face. I don't know exactly because they
Speaker 1: just say lesions. But they tested her and they said,
Speaker 1: you know, have you been having a lot of UV exposure?
Speaker 1: Because this is something that we would see with someone
Speaker 1: with unprotected skin. And then she figured out that it
Speaker 1: was because of the windows in her house. Yeah, so
Speaker 1: she's suing her building right now for I believe a
Speaker 1: million dollars in damages. This is a six point two
Speaker 1: million dollar apartment. My argument is that in her lawsuit,
Speaker 1: she's saying when she inquired with the building, they said
Speaker 1: there was one hundred percent protection against the UV rays,
Speaker 1: Which how is that possible if it's a window. Wouldn't
Speaker 1: it only be one hundred percent protected if there's no
Speaker 1: window and you have absolutely no exposure to the sun.
Speaker 1: I don't really know what products they make that can
Speaker 1: filter the rays. I know that we did in our
Speaker 1: like in the off in my house, we got tint
Speaker 1: put on the windows because the one time a day.
Speaker 1: I remember it was like blinding us at certain times
Speaker 1: to the year when the sun was coming and we
Speaker 1: got the tint put on it and it kind of
Speaker 1: chilled it out a lot, but it's still you still
Speaker 1: feel like you could be getting a sunburn if you're
Speaker 1: sitting there. Well, yeah, which is why, like I'm kind
Speaker 1: of like, this is the dumbest lawsuit I've ever heard, honestly. Well,
Speaker 1: first of all, it says on her website that she's
Speaker 1: an actress and a recovering attorney. So if you're an attorney,
Speaker 1: I think you should know the obvious here that if
Speaker 1: you're sitting in sunlight. I don't know. I just think
Speaker 1: there's something. She's an attorney, so she's looking for a loophole.
Speaker 1: That's what's happening. I think this is what happened. Like
Speaker 1: she even said in her own words that they noticed
Speaker 1: that they were told that it was one hundred percent
Speaker 1: UV protection, But in her own words, she said that
Speaker 1: the couple noticed that there was fading of the carpet
Speaker 1: and their artwork and paint. So right there, you're like, okay, well,
Speaker 1: what else causes that? The only reason that's happening is
Speaker 1: because sunlight is getting through somehow. Plus you mean to
Speaker 1: tell me you're sitting there, Like I just said this,
Speaker 1: We're sitting in our office when the sun comes around
Speaker 1: the house at a certain time of day and you
Speaker 1: feel like you're cooking, like you have to move out
Speaker 1: of it because it's hot. Well, you can't think that
Speaker 1: it's not affecting you, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2: Problem is she's comparing this to saying it's like telling
Speaker 2: a person with fair skin that they could sit outside
Speaker 2: with no sunscreen and then they don't get burnt. And
Speaker 2: I'm like, that's not true though, because sunscreen also isn't
Speaker 2: a hundred percent protection from UV. It's just supposed to
Speaker 2: help delay the process. So like where are you talking?
Speaker 1: But like you couldn't if you had fair skin and
Speaker 1: sat out in the sun. You couldn't just sit out
Speaker 1: there and not get burned. That's what I'm saying. You
Speaker 1: would know it was happening, trust me. Yeah, Like I
Speaker 1: don't know if it was damaging her skin, she would
Speaker 1: have felt it, you know what I mean. Like I don't,
Speaker 1: I don't buy it, and I just think it's I
Speaker 1: think it's just she had tested independently and they said
Speaker 1: that it didn't have full UV protection or something, and
Speaker 1: then but the company that tested it said that it
Speaker 1: was up to whatever standards it was.
Speaker 2: You can't have one hundred percent UV protection unless it's
Speaker 2: a fully closed off wall.
Speaker 1: It can't be abe.
Speaker 2: I don't.
Speaker 1: I don't know. They might they might sell. They might
Speaker 1: might sell it like it's like a light filter. They
Speaker 1: might sell something I'm not trying. I would call whatever
Speaker 1: it is, would call that bullshit. When you notice that
Speaker 1: your shit's fading and everything, just maybe and you should
Speaker 1: just question it. I don't know, Like if this is
Speaker 1: just like the dumbest lawsuit, like I said, I think
Speaker 1: I don't think she has a case. Yeah, her the
Speaker 1: buildings lawyer said it's completely frivolous, and I have to agree.
Speaker 1: I just think it's like common sense, you know, even
Speaker 1: if the building said that, I can't even imagine the
Speaker 1: building said that. It's just irresponsible to say something like that,
Speaker 1: and it's irresponsible to think that that's true. Now this
Speaker 1: next case, I think she's got a case, yeah, one
Speaker 1: hundred percent. A nurse from Sacramento had traveled to LA
Speaker 1: to get a special surgery because she had tumors caused
Speaker 1: by neurofibromatosis. I could have never said that what is that.
Speaker 1: It's a genetic disease that you're born with, a condition
Speaker 1: that you're born with, and it causes tumors in nerves, right,
Speaker 1: But you have nerves throughout your whole body. So you
Speaker 1: have your nervous system, which is your brain and spinal core,
Speaker 1: but you also have all your peripheral nerves too that
Speaker 1: go through your arms, your legs, your skin, everywhere. And
Speaker 1: what happens is just like little tiny tumors can grow
Speaker 1: on the nerves and it looks like you have a
Speaker 1: bunch of bumps all over your skin. And some people
Speaker 1: could have it very mild. You might just see somebody
Speaker 1: and just be like, oh, they look like they have
Speaker 1: bumpy skin. And then other people could have it so
Speaker 1: severe that the tumors get very large and it distorts
Speaker 1: their face. And in this case, she had it, and
Speaker 1: it was obvious that she had it all over her face,
Speaker 1: at least that we could see in the photos. And
Speaker 1: she went from Sacramento to LA to get treatment for it.
Speaker 1: And I'm not sure exactly what treatment she had done,
Speaker 1: but whatever she had done left all of these little
Speaker 1: nodules that she has under her skin with little scabs
Speaker 1: on it. Yeah.
Speaker 2: So after the surgery, she goes to the Burbank Airport
Speaker 2: in LA. She said she covered up as much as
Speaker 2: her face as possible with a mask and headband because
Speaker 2: she had these scabs all over her face. So she
Speaker 2: has a ticket on Southwest. She boards the plane, sits down,
Speaker 2: and then the flight attendant comes over and tells her
Speaker 2: she has to get up and leave because there's concerns
Speaker 2: that she has a disease like chicken pox that could
Speaker 2: spread to everybody else on the plane.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so they were convinced that she had a communicable
Speaker 1: disease is something that's very contagious, and they were specifically
Speaker 1: kept saying chicken pox. Now when you look at pictures
Speaker 1: of this woman, you could see that they would think that,
Speaker 1: I mean, you can't you can't, you can't deny that
Speaker 1: when you look at her, because it's just like this
Speaker 1: is kind of like a little bit of a rare
Speaker 1: and interesting case, right, But when you question her and see, hi,
Speaker 1: we we just are they should have pulled her aside
Speaker 1: and said, hi, we're just concerned, because you really, if
Speaker 1: you do have chicken pox, you really can't be on
Speaker 1: the plane right now on this net, which I think
Speaker 1: is their responsibility to do that in the plane when
Speaker 1: when she explained to them what happened, that should have
Speaker 1: been the end of.
Speaker 2: It, and she offered PaperWorks and every she.
Speaker 1: Had, she had paper she's a nurse, and she said
Speaker 1: she was a nurse, and she said she had neurofibromatosis,
Speaker 1: and she said she just had a procedure done, like
Speaker 1: it should have been the end of the stay.
Speaker 2: She had the paperwork to back it up, which they
Speaker 2: were refusing to see.
Speaker 1: She shouldn't even have to show the paperwork, dude. There's
Speaker 1: like a certain level of like, leave me the fuck alone.
Speaker 1: I'm a human being and you're embarrassing me right now.
Speaker 1: And like you, she said she was a nurse and
Speaker 1: she explained her medical condition, and I think, like I
Speaker 1: think that Southwest should you know. They were allowed to
Speaker 1: ask her and she was allowed to explain and end
Speaker 1: a story like you you can't just be like self
Speaker 1: diagnosing people as a flight attendant. Yeah, So then she
Speaker 1: was told she wouldn't be allowed to reboard until she
Speaker 1: was examined by an emergency Medical services at the airport.
Speaker 1: Which obviously, if she.
Speaker 2: Was sitting on the plane, they were getting ready to
Speaker 2: board and take off, so they're not gonna wait for
Speaker 2: her to be examined.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I wouldn't, dude. This is the kind
Speaker 1: of shit that I would flip the fuck out over
Speaker 1: if this was me. Yeah, I'm serious. They would take
Speaker 1: me off with like what are those people called that
Speaker 1: come that come on the air marshals? Oh yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: they'd have to come take me off because I would
Speaker 1: seriously be flipping my shit.
Speaker 2: So then you know, she had to go through all
Speaker 2: of that and show all this paperwork which she was
Speaker 2: offering at the very beginning, and they're refusing to look
Speaker 2: at and then finally they cleared her to go, and
Speaker 2: she'd wait five hours for them to rebook her another
Speaker 2: flight to go on.
Speaker 1: They I don't even think that they took the original
Speaker 1: paperwork that she had. She had to call her doctor's
Speaker 1: office and all of this stuff. It was just like
Speaker 1: way too much. And you know, when you start this,
Speaker 1: it's a scene, right, all it is is a scene,
Speaker 1: And you think that this woman already has this condition,
Speaker 1: that she's got nodules all over her b. So people
Speaker 1: are already staring at her anyway, and then she's got
Speaker 1: this procedure done that makes them look even angrier. Right,
Speaker 1: she just wants to go home and and like to
Speaker 1: have to be this center of attention, pointing it out, embarrassing, demeaning,
Speaker 1: not listening, believing to her she deserves some conversation for
Speaker 1: like she's not been through enough. Yeah, it's it really is.
Speaker 1: It's just it's embarrassing, it's humiliating. And I'm like one
Speaker 1: hundred percent on her side, and I'm glad that she
Speaker 1: made TikTok videos or whatever and went viral with it
Speaker 1: because it's it's so messed up. It really is.
Speaker 2: So in Texas, a woman took a shower with her
Speaker 2: contact lenses in This is something I do very frequently,
Speaker 2: and I don't think I will anymore after this story.
Speaker 2: So she started having mild irritation and then it quickly
Speaker 2: escalated to the point where she said, the pain makes
Speaker 2: giving birth look like a walk in the freaking park.
Speaker 1: Dude, eye pain is It's seriously the worst pain that
Speaker 1: you could ever have. For real it it like, have
Speaker 1: you ever had some severe problem with your eye?
Speaker 2: I wouldn't say severe. I had a time where my
Speaker 2: eye hurt pretty bad. And I guess because I had
Speaker 2: fake nails, A piece of my contact ripped and was
Speaker 2: like stuck up in my eyelid for a day or two.
Speaker 1: But I had a situation once that I think started
Speaker 1: with a contact or I don't know, because I got
Speaker 1: a dry eye situation. But like, it just was the
Speaker 1: worst thing ever. And it's you could when she says that,
Speaker 1: I believe it, and a lot of people that you
Speaker 1: hear have these eye problems, like they really say that
Speaker 1: it's just the worst pain ever. And apparently they were
Speaker 1: having She she lost her vision in her eye and
Speaker 1: she was pregnant at the time when it happened, and
Speaker 1: she goes she couldn't get a diagnosis. She had to
Speaker 1: go like five different doctors and finally they scraped her
Speaker 1: cornea and found out that she had an amiba infection,
Speaker 1: which is a parasite that is present in water and
Speaker 1: that was what was causing the damage to her cornea.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they said she had to go so this over
Speaker 2: a year, she had to go to eighty two doctor visits.
Speaker 1: Oh, I believe it. I mean, her eye looks terrible, Yeah,
Speaker 1: it looks absolutely terrifying. And terrible, and they're saying that, like,
Speaker 1: I know that you can get an amibia infection from
Speaker 1: going into like natural rivers and lakes and things like that,
Speaker 1: but I never would have thought that you could get
Speaker 1: it from tap water.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I wouldn't have thought of that either. I guess
Speaker 2: in this article they were saying you shouldn't rinse your
Speaker 2: contact with water. I mean, I knew that, but I
Speaker 2: thought that's because it could dry them out, not because
Speaker 2: of the potential of a parasite.
Speaker 1: I would think. I would think, like maybe bacteria and stuff.
Speaker 1: I guess, I guess it is a thing or whatever.
Speaker 1: And we also have to mention that she was pregnant.
Speaker 1: So when you're pregnant, you're considered to be imman suppressed.
Speaker 1: Your immune system doesn't work as great as it normally does,
Speaker 1: so that definitely could be a huge thing right here,
Speaker 1: Like this might not have happened to a normal immune
Speaker 1: system person, but because she was pregnant, it's possible that's
Speaker 1: why she got this parasite. But Jesus, like, if you
Speaker 1: look at her eye and stuff, it's just so gnarly.
Speaker 1: And talking about like how she led to diagnosis. They
Speaker 1: had to scrape her eyeball like wears snipe mare. Yeah. Really,
Speaker 1: it's it's so terrible, and so I'm glad that she's
Speaker 1: spreading awareness about this because I'm sure it changed you
Speaker 1: for sure, at least at this point.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean, this is also why I don't get
Speaker 2: fake nails anymore, because I really like the way they look.
Speaker 2: But I prefer wearing contacts most of the time. And
Speaker 2: one time I really couldn't get my contact out that
Speaker 2: I made Ricky take it out of my eye, which
Speaker 2: I'm sure was a treat for him, but I can't
Speaker 2: deal with it. And then they rip so much when
Speaker 2: you're trying to take them out, and everybody's like, oh,
Speaker 2: they make these devices you could use to put your
Speaker 2: contact in that I don't want to put a piece
Speaker 2: of plastic in my eye.
Speaker 1: Like I actually said, I should have sent this to
Speaker 1: you on Instagram. The other day, I saw a video.
Speaker 1: You know, they always do these videos that show you
Speaker 1: something that you do every day, and it's like this
Speaker 1: easy way to do it that's shocking. There was this
Speaker 1: guy that was taking out his contact and it was
Speaker 1: like he just did this one thing and like turned
Speaker 1: his eye and like got it out, like really fast,
Speaker 1: and I was like, oh my god, if that works,
Speaker 1: that would be amazing. So I should have sent it. Well.
Speaker 2: Every time I met the eye doctor, they're like, do
Speaker 2: you need the mirror? And I'm like no, and I
Speaker 2: just pinch it out. I'm sure that guy loves that
Speaker 2: I do that.
Speaker 1: I hate. I hate contact.
Speaker 2: So I've been wearing my glasses more because I noticed
Speaker 2: in my elder years that I just have such bad
Speaker 2: light sensitivity anymore. And like now I have my special
Speaker 2: old lady Grandma glasses that like I have all the
Speaker 2: filters in it.
Speaker 1: I do too. Like I was thinking that I might
Speaker 1: get like I could seriously wear sunglasses all day, like
Speaker 1: in the house, that's how bad it is. And I
Speaker 1: was like, well, maybe next time I get my glasses,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get like a cool tint on them or
Speaker 1: something to like lower it. She could transition less looks
Speaker 1: so cool. I don't like the transition ones because they
Speaker 1: look gray and they're not cool. Like I was thinking
Speaker 1: like a half pink thing or something gold or fun.
Speaker 1: But I like, you guys laugh at me at the
Speaker 1: Phillies game because I wear my sunglasses until it's nine o'clock.
Speaker 1: I don't understand the lights hurt like it's I can't like,
Speaker 1: I just can't deal with it. I don't eat. My
Speaker 1: phone's like on as low as as the light can be.
Speaker 1: It's a spothers.
Speaker 2: We also work on a computer all day long every day,
Speaker 2: so like, yeah, I yeah, I mean, I totally understand
Speaker 2: where you're coming from. The second we're done recording, I
Speaker 2: take my contacts out and put my glasses on because
Speaker 2: I have the like blue light whatever bullshit that doesn't
Speaker 2: even work in them, and.
Speaker 1: It does help a little bit. So all right, so
Speaker 1: let's get on to other death news because this is
Speaker 1: probably wanted the most out. I don't know, there's a
Speaker 1: lot of outrageous stories this week, but this one's pretty outrageous.
Speaker 1: So in New Zealand, this woman is just taking a
Speaker 1: stroll along the beach with her dog. She notices her dog.
Speaker 2: Runs in front of her and it's sniffing something in
Speaker 2: the distance. So as she gets closer, she sees what
Speaker 2: she believes is a headless corpse of a woman laying
Speaker 2: on her belly. Yes, so the cops go up to
Speaker 2: it and they're looking around and they're kind of and
Speaker 2: then they start with their foot like kicking it a
Speaker 2: little bit and given a little bit of a nudge,
Speaker 2: and they realize that it's not a dead person. It's
Speaker 2: like a straight up blow up sex doll. Yeah, it's
Speaker 2: a freaking sex doll. It's a sex doll. It's one
Speaker 2: of those like ultra realistic ones.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 2: She said when the police came and turned the quote
Speaker 2: unquote body over that it was even more realistic from
Speaker 2: the front, with you know, the breast exposed and everything,
Speaker 2: but it was missing its head. They have no idea
Speaker 2: how it got there, but it definitely scared the shit
Speaker 2: out of her.
Speaker 1: I mean, I see that from her perspective, because you're
Speaker 1: walking on the beach and you expect to see like
Speaker 1: seashells and maybe like a jellyfish or something here or there.
Speaker 1: You definitely don't ever expect to just see something that
Speaker 1: looks like a dead body laying there. No. I mean,
Speaker 1: the cops pretty much knew right away, like, Okay, this
Speaker 1: is not a person's She's very pink, first of all,
Speaker 1: So if you were dead, headless laying there, you wouldn't
Speaker 1: your skin color wouldn't be so lively.
Speaker 2: No, And she also said it was so heavy for
Speaker 2: some reason that three police officers had to take it
Speaker 2: off the beach.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, because it was probably one of those Johns
Speaker 1: that you buy on Amazon that are like thirteen hundred dollars.
Speaker 1: My god, remember there was some reason. Wait we were
Speaker 1: talking about that on here, right, yeah. Yeah, because that
Speaker 1: guy kept trying to visit the sex doll at the
Speaker 1: crime scene. Yeah, remember that. So we looked it up
Speaker 1: on Amazon and it was like, my searches are questionable now,
Speaker 1: of course.
Speaker 2: But searches are always questionable.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but like my kids will be like, oh, can
Speaker 1: I get something on Amazon? I want to get some
Speaker 1: skincare bullshit, And then like it looks at your previous
Speaker 1: searches and it's like sex dolls. I can't like, I
Speaker 1: can't show them anymore. I don't know how to get
Speaker 1: rid of that. But they have these like super fancy
Speaker 1: sex doyles for sale on Amazon that they probably they
Speaker 1: probably weigh a decent amount. You could probably actually see
Speaker 1: how much they weigh for the shipping. But I mean
Speaker 1: those things are like silicone, they look like they're heavy.
Speaker 2: I think your solution is they make these teen Amazon
Speaker 2: accounts now the hook up to yours, and you would
Speaker 2: have to approve every purchase, but they get their own interface.
Speaker 1: That's that's funny because I don't know if I told
Speaker 1: you this, but this is like a kind of side note.
Speaker 1: Like I told Lilian to put some back to school clothes.
Speaker 1: Like I was like, go on the website and look
Speaker 1: for some clothes that you want or whatever, and put
Speaker 1: them in the cart and then I'll go through it
Speaker 1: and we'll order whatever you want. And I go look
Speaker 1: at her car and guess guess how many things she
Speaker 1: had in the car seventy five And I was like,
Speaker 1: I whittled it down to like fourth And I was like, dude,
Speaker 1: I just wanted you to get like a couple shirts.
Speaker 1: I don't understand what's happening here.
Speaker 2: It was hilarious, though, give her a free rein of anything.
Speaker 1: And it was just like I just was like yeah, no, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: Like it's just I wanted to give her some of
Speaker 1: her like independence, to feel like she had, you know,
Speaker 1: some choice over what she was getting. But I thought
Speaker 1: that was hilarious. All right.
Speaker 2: So our last story is about cruise ships. So our family,
Speaker 2: right how, has been in the great debate of taking
Speaker 2: a cruise next year, which nobody knows how to feel about.
Speaker 2: But we were talking, well, it's because it's because my
Speaker 2: mom and dad's fiftieth wedding anniversary is coming up next year,
Speaker 2: and my mom just was like, yeah, you guys were
Speaker 2: all going on a cruise for our anniversary. So and
Speaker 2: we've never been on once or we're like okay, yay,
Speaker 2: so we're like, how does it work if something happens
Speaker 2: or get sick. But I think we talked about this
Speaker 2: before too, that cruise ships have morgs on them, and
Speaker 2: they actually have a pretty you know, nailed out process
Speaker 2: for this because they're frequently elderly passengers. So yeah, which
Speaker 2: is is kind of it's weird to think that they
Speaker 2: have like a full third morgu is a it'll be
Speaker 2: like a refrigerated room, like if you've ever seen in
Speaker 2: a restaurant, like a walk in fridge, Like that's exactly
Speaker 2: what the fridge looks like in the morgue. And this
Speaker 2: one holds between two and ten bodies. I guess it
Speaker 2: depends on the size of the ship, but like the
Speaker 2: last morgue I worked at didn't even hold ten bodies.
Speaker 2: This like bigger than a hospital morg for it I
Speaker 2: guess they just have to be prepared just in case anything.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, totally, especially now with like that's that's really
Speaker 1: the fear is like the virus spreading through the through
Speaker 1: the cruise ship and like multiple people getting it.
Speaker 2: But so if you die on a cruise, they'll put
Speaker 2: your body in the cruise ship morg and then it
Speaker 2: looks like your body will be offloaded at the end
Speaker 2: of the cruise at the ship's home port, but special
Speaker 2: requests can accommodate them being taken off at another port.
Speaker 1: There's so many interesting things to talk about this because
Speaker 1: especially the crews that we're going on is like partially international.
Speaker 1: So if what if you get off at the dock
Speaker 1: and like a person dies and they technically die in
Speaker 1: the other country, then there's like a whole that's that's
Speaker 1: It's not like they're going to be like, okay, take
Speaker 1: this body on the ship, but it probably won't go
Speaker 1: down like that because they have laws that they want
Speaker 1: to examine under their jurisdiction and everything.
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's all these like special rules based on situations.
Speaker 2: But I will say this makes it very clear that
Speaker 2: you as the family members, are responsible for transporting the body.
Speaker 2: The cruise will not be paying for the transportation what
Speaker 2: like AFT when it leaves the crews, which I would
Speaker 2: assume is obvious, but I guess that when you do
Speaker 2: when you get a body picked up from the funeral
Speaker 2: or from the hospital to go to the funeral home
Speaker 2: or to get cremated, like you're you have to pay
Speaker 2: the cost to that the hospital is not paying it.
Speaker 1: I also I would love to.
Speaker 2: Do an external exam interviewing a person that works on
Speaker 2: a cruise Morgue or a cruise just to the cruise
Speaker 2: medical facility.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that would be cool, actually, I because you think
Speaker 1: about that, like, especially since we're going. Like the one
Speaker 1: pro that I was just telling Louis earlier today was
Speaker 1: I was like, listen, our whole entire family is going
Speaker 1: to be on this cruise, like anybody that we really
Speaker 1: care about, right, like our immediate family, all of us brothers, sisters, aunts, cousins, whatever,
Speaker 1: Right if we all die on this ship, like who cares?
Speaker 2: Like no, but people won't care. It's not like people
Speaker 2: won't care, they.
Speaker 1: Won't don't care, but like it won't be like a
Speaker 1: major care. It won't be like that level. I know
Speaker 1: what in laws that care about me that aren't going Yeah,
Speaker 1: but it's not the same. It's just not the same
Speaker 1: as like the immediate ten people or fifteen people or whatever. Right,
Speaker 1: so like that concern is wiped away, Like if we
Speaker 1: all go then whatever, that's how it goes down. But
Speaker 1: like what if you get appendicitis or something and you
Speaker 1: need surgery and like what happens? I want to know, Well,
Speaker 1: like an emergency surgery situation, you have a per for
Speaker 1: raid to die particulate.
Speaker 2: It seems like you would go to whatever local hospital
Speaker 2: you're closest to.
Speaker 1: Okay, but are they how far away are they from?
Speaker 1: Like I don't know how Like you're okay, so you're
Speaker 1: in the middle of the ocean. That might take a
Speaker 1: long time just to get like they would divert the
Speaker 1: entire ship. I don't know.
Speaker 2: We need we need a cruise ship person that's like
Speaker 2: experiences firsthand to explain this. I am very curious about it.
Speaker 2: And then I was reading that as of this Safety
Speaker 2: Act that was passed in twenty ten, any missing people,
Speaker 2: suspicious death, or homicides that happen on cruise ships have
Speaker 2: to be reported to the FBI, which I think is
Speaker 2: really interesting.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that all is this is all interesting? We need
Speaker 1: I just I really want to I want to know
Speaker 1: because there are definitely things that need to be addressed.
Speaker 1: I know they have they have a hospital, or they
Speaker 1: have like a like an urgent care situation. It's probably
Speaker 1: more of an urgent care situation like a kid slips
Speaker 1: and falls running around the pool and like get gets
Speaker 1: a laceration and needs to get sutures or something like that.
Speaker 1: I understand they have that quote at the.
Speaker 2: Beginning of this article said quote. Given that there is
Speaker 2: such a high frequency of elderly passengers and the fact
Speaker 2: that cruise ships are basically floating cities, it's no surprise
Speaker 2: that there are morgs on post cruise ships. Yeah, he
Speaker 2: want to know more about the cruise ships.
Speaker 1: So yes, So if there's not one on your cruise ship,
Speaker 1: they just put you in the fridge next to the
Speaker 1: cheese and everything like that, right, nice, all right?
Speaker 2: On the Questions of the Day, Every Friday at the
Speaker 2: at Mother Knows Death Instagram account, we put a story
Speaker 2: up with a question box and you guys could ask
Speaker 2: whatever you want. First, are body bags reused? And if so,
Speaker 2: how do they clean them?
Speaker 1: I don't know because I've never seen them be reused,
Speaker 1: but and I don't I don't know how you would
Speaker 1: clean them. They're so they get filled with a lot
Speaker 1: of body fluids and stuff. I mean, you you could
Speaker 1: reuse them because who cares. It's not like the person's
Speaker 1: gonna get a communicable disease, right, But I just I
Speaker 1: don't know, because when we use them, it's like if
Speaker 1: I get one down in the morgue that was really
Speaker 1: that would be really ripped up or something like that,
Speaker 1: like we're really dirty. I would just throw it out
Speaker 1: and just get a new one because they're they're relatively cheap.
Speaker 1: And then from there I would send the body to
Speaker 1: the funeral home. They could take the body out of
Speaker 1: the body bag. I mean, they might reuse them. I
Speaker 1: don't know, but like we don't ever have a reason to.
Speaker 1: But maybe there are places because you know, I mean,
Speaker 1: let's say, for example, when you have the funeral home
Speaker 1: that comes and picks up the body, they put the
Speaker 1: plastic body bag in the person inside of like a
Speaker 1: leathery one like that one's reused all the time. A
Speaker 1: leathery one, yeah, like the the one that that goes
Speaker 1: on there gurney, like it's just like a like one
Speaker 1: made out of leather or fabric or something like that,
Speaker 1: like the outer shell that they zip up. Because when
Speaker 1: when you're pushing a body out of the hospital, they're
Speaker 1: not going to be in like their white body bag.
Speaker 1: They're like the funeral home usually puts them in something
Speaker 1: like cozier. Aren't there like juices and stuff in it? Yeah,
Speaker 1: but it's like it's usually like a leathery or a
Speaker 1: vinyl material. But the body bag like whenever, the body
Speaker 1: bags are pretty good if they're sealed, and usually like
Speaker 1: I'll I mean, there's there's always situations where bodies have
Speaker 1: a lot of fluid, like if a person has like
Speaker 1: anasarca or like world are widespread like a demon in
Speaker 1: their body. They leak fluid even after you clean up
Speaker 1: after the autopsy. But that's not as common. So just
Speaker 1: after we do the autopsy or whatever, we just clean
Speaker 1: them off and they're they're not really like super juicy
Speaker 1: all the time, but like people leak sometimes, like sometimes
Speaker 1: you put them in two body bags before the funeral
Speaker 1: person will come pick them up.
Speaker 2: Interesting, all right, can you tell if a brain has Alzheimer's?
Speaker 1: Yeah, you can. You could see it while I've seen
Speaker 1: it multiple times while doing because I used to work
Speaker 1: in a special hospital that did neuropathology. So it looks
Speaker 1: it looks smaller than an average sized brain, and it's
Speaker 1: it's shrunk and you could see it when you do
Speaker 1: it on cut section, so you could see it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: for sure, that's really cool that you can see it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it is. It is cool that you could see it.
Speaker 1: I mean it's not cool for them.
Speaker 2: Obviously, but I don't really know how it's diagnosed. But
Speaker 2: is that like something they Is that something they used
Speaker 2: to determine a diagnosis.
Speaker 1: Yeah, like we will look when we look at it,
Speaker 1: like grossly, so with our naked eye, that we could
Speaker 1: see that it that it's shrunk. So when you look
Speaker 1: at a normal slice of a brain, it's it's very
Speaker 1: like plump looking compared to it the gyri and sulky,
Speaker 1: which are like the brain folds, they look not as
Speaker 1: like close together. They're more like shrunken apart. And that's
Speaker 1: what we see grossly. I mean they see a lot
Speaker 1: of other things grossly too, But that's like neuropathology, which
Speaker 1: is a whole other thing that I don't know about, honestly,
Speaker 1: But we take sections of that under the microscope to
Speaker 1: look at, and then they could see microscopic findings that
Speaker 1: are consistent with Alzheimer's as well.
Speaker 2: All right, last, since everybody loved the car story last week,
Speaker 2: what is your Somebody wanted to know what your funny
Speaker 2: story about me was?
Speaker 1: Oh God, I don't. I don't really know which one
Speaker 1: I should tell because I had I mean, I don't,
Speaker 1: I don't have any that are like like that level.
Speaker 2: Earlier this episode, tell when I hysterically cried and could
Speaker 2: not be consulted.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but there's all there's all like little tidbits like that.
Speaker 1: One story that I could think is that is kind
Speaker 1: of funny is when Maria was younger and I was
Speaker 1: in school. So my mom had taken Maria for a
Speaker 1: weekend to my aunt's house at the lakes. How old
Speaker 1: are you were? Probably you were probably like twelve. I
Speaker 1: think I was twelve or thirteen. I would say twelve
Speaker 1: or thirteen. So just think about like teenage tween girl,
Speaker 1: pre pubescent, like awkward stage. That's like the like I'm
Speaker 1: a little kid, I was really fat. You let me
Speaker 1: shave my head, I did it wear makeup? I had
Speaker 1: shave your head. Stop being dramatic. It was definitely not
Speaker 1: shaved even a little bit. It just she had short hair.
Speaker 2: I had like not a seventy year old lady haircut,
Speaker 2: like you wanted like a faux hawk because that was
Speaker 2: cool back then.
Speaker 1: Like did it look like on me? Well, that's that's
Speaker 1: that's your your problem with your face. You could like
Speaker 1: if you had a cuter face, maybe you could have
Speaker 1: pulled it off. Whose fault is that? All right? So anyway,
Speaker 1: so she goes, so my aunt had used to have
Speaker 1: a house at some lake and she had some like
Speaker 1: rafts and stuff that they would put in the lake
Speaker 1: behind the house. And she took a bunch of pictures
Speaker 1: of Maria while she was there, because she was there
Speaker 1: with like all the cousins and everything and my mom,
Speaker 1: and she gives me this album of all these pictures
Speaker 1: of Maria to be like, oh hey, I took these
Speaker 1: memorable photos of Maria, like you want these, right, And
Speaker 1: I opened it up up. It was like in one
Speaker 1: of those like old school like puffy photo albums, and
Speaker 1: every one of them. I was just like, oh my god,
Speaker 1: she is not going to be happy about this when
Speaker 1: she sees this, because it is so these pictures are
Speaker 1: like the most unflattering things ever. So she's like wearing
Speaker 1: this giant like light what is it, a life like
Speaker 1: a vest like a life vest right, which was way
Speaker 1: too big for her, and she just like she got
Speaker 1: sprayed with all of this like lake water and everything,
Speaker 1: and her little short haircut was like all curled because
Speaker 1: we have curly hair, you know, and humid and frizzy.
Speaker 1: And she's all like, I'm gonna put the picture up
Speaker 1: in this YouTube video so you could see it because whatever.
Speaker 1: But like, she's my kid, so I think that she's cute.
Speaker 1: But also I know that she's at the age that
Speaker 1: she's starting to be conscious about like how she looks
Speaker 1: and stuff. So I think that she was like like
Speaker 1: I was like, oh god, I'm not going to show it.
Speaker 2: I wonder why after this, I was so just about
Speaker 2: how I look.
Speaker 1: So there's this picture of her in this raft and
Speaker 1: it's just like and she I mean, I don't know.
Speaker 1: I just thought that she looked cute or whatever. So
Speaker 1: I show it to her and she hated it, so bait.
Speaker 1: She like ripped the album like out of my hands,
Speaker 1: and she's like, don't ever show anybody that again, this
Speaker 1: is terrible, and I'm just like cold on, dude, you're
Speaker 1: in a raft and it's like it's you're it's during
Speaker 1: like the summer, Like it's really not ugly.
Speaker 2: This picture ever taken, it'd be in my thirty years
Speaker 2: of life.
Speaker 1: And this is so this is like what year was
Speaker 1: that I had to be in, like eighth or ninth grade.
Speaker 1: Oh my god. She was so mad about it. So
Speaker 1: she ripped it and I was like, all right, whatever,
Speaker 1: I'll get rid of it. But then of course I
Speaker 1: didn't get rid of it because I was just like,
Speaker 1: why no, it doesn't So this is before iPhones. It's
Speaker 1: like the phone. The photos are never getting recovered ever,
Speaker 1: Like if I got rid of it, we couldn't even
Speaker 1: tell this story right now, listen. So I so I
Speaker 1: kept it and then I pulled it. I pulled it
Speaker 1: out at very opportune times. But she, oh my god,
Speaker 1: she would get so mad about it and like not
Speaker 1: talk to me if I ever brought even talked about
Speaker 1: the picture. I didn't even have to show it. She
Speaker 1: would just like get so mad about it. And then
Speaker 1: then when we met Gabe, because it was not too
Speaker 1: long after that, he would always he would be like
Speaker 1: he would just go up to her and be like, Maria,
Speaker 1: tell me about this raft photo that you have and stuff,
Speaker 1: and she would like storm out of the room and
Speaker 1: just gets so mad about it. So it was pretty
Speaker 1: funny and she laughs about it now because she knows,
Speaker 1: she knows it's hilarious. I don't know. One time, I
Speaker 1: know it's hilarious.
Speaker 2: I've paid a lot of therapy to get over this.
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, so one time I remember I was like, Okay,
Speaker 1: I won't show anyone the picture, but I had I
Speaker 1: had like taken photoshop and like blacked out just over
Speaker 1: her face does. So it's it does because I was
Speaker 1: trying to give you like therapy, like exposure therapy, to
Speaker 1: show you that it really just wasn't that bad and
Speaker 1: it was just And now it's funny because she's transitioned
Speaker 1: to like I guess now that she realizes that she's
Speaker 1: like a totally normal looking person, that doesn't bother her
Speaker 1: anymore about this Fatus.
Speaker 2: Can't see an uglier.
Speaker 1: Being taken to me, I really can't you. It's it's
Speaker 1: just and like I think that it makes it worse
Speaker 1: because because like we were like, okay, it's a bad picture. Really.
Speaker 1: The thing is like, you know how like you could
Speaker 1: just be a decent looking person and then all of
Speaker 1: a sudden you go to like go get your hair
Speaker 1: cut at the hair salon and they put that cape
Speaker 1: around your neck and you're like, oh my god, I
Speaker 1: look like a freaking human turtle. Like I'm the ugliest
Speaker 1: person right now. It's like that kind of a picture,
Speaker 1: and that Aunt Jane was just like, oh my god,
Speaker 1: is the just secutest picture. And like Maria was like
Speaker 1: straight up like having hate towards Aunt Jane for even
Speaker 1: producing this picture. And it's like seriously like forty pictures
Speaker 1: of the same picture with like like she just was
Speaker 1: like a typical older person that was like she like
Speaker 1: took a thousand pictures of her. Oh my god, it's
Speaker 1: so good. And she always brought it up like.
Speaker 2: Oh, this picture legitimately put me in a mental state
Speaker 2: of anger that nothing else could set me in until.
Speaker 1: I was it was it was, it was crazy. It
Speaker 1: just was so crazy, like she just got so pissed
Speaker 1: off about it and then to make to make it way,
Speaker 1: did you send it to Ricky? No, I sent it
Speaker 1: to Ricky now, but I did. I did stop like
Speaker 1: after I saw that she was seriously getting like legit
Speaker 1: angry about it, I was just like, okay, you know what,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna put this away and I like hit it
Speaker 1: in the files for like, legit ten years, no more
Speaker 1: than ten years, because you like you were thirteen.
Speaker 2: Gabe showed it to me when I was in like
Speaker 2: my senior year in of high school because he took.
Speaker 1: A picture of it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so Gabe had it, But that's not me and
Speaker 2: you guys would just we just be sitting at the
Speaker 2: dinner table. Then he just turned his phot and I'm like,
Speaker 2: you were You guys are such dicks.
Speaker 1: But then but then when she got older, that well,
Speaker 1: this is how it started. It was your fault because
Speaker 1: you were sending pictures of me to Gabe. We were
Speaker 1: I'll never forget this. Me and Gabe were lying. I
Speaker 1: got one and you were a adult. You weren't. You
Speaker 1: might be my child, but you were twenty seven. You
Speaker 1: were already living with Ricky at your house, so you
Speaker 1: were definitely like in between twenty seven and thirty years old. No,
Speaker 1: so I cut the child bullshit. So I'm laying in
Speaker 1: bed with Gabe and Maria's sending pictures of him, like
Speaker 1: embarrassing pictures of me to him right, like unflattering because
Speaker 1: trust me, I got a lot of them. So she's
Speaker 1: and he's over there crying in bed next to me,
Speaker 1: and I'm like, what the hell is that? And then
Speaker 1: he shows me and he can't even like show me
Speaker 1: because he's shaking so hard. So I was like, oh, really,
Speaker 1: let me show her husband this picture of her in
Speaker 1: this raft and then I sent it to him. It
Speaker 1: was really Ricky didn't even know the picture existed until
Speaker 1: it came into his phone. Did he think it was
Speaker 1: funny when he saw it? Or like, did he think
Speaker 1: it was a big deal when he saw this this picture?
Speaker 1: Because it's really it's really just like not that bad
Speaker 1: because we build it up so much, like all these
Speaker 1: people are going to look at it and be.
Speaker 2: Like, this picture has been weaponized against me for eighteen years.
Speaker 1: Now, I'm over it. What you put in like a
Speaker 1: workman's cap, I thought you did it. Are you going
Speaker 1: to show it? Oh? I thought you were gonna flip
Speaker 1: it in the video.
Speaker 2: I'm not manually putting it in myself.
Speaker 1: If you show you have to find it, well, well
Speaker 1: am I gonna find it? On my phone right now. Well,
Speaker 1: I guess nobody will see it. Then I guess we'll
Speaker 1: get onto the next question. And all that's the last question.
Speaker 1: Well get another question, maybe because I can't even find
Speaker 1: it when I search raft and the only thing I
Speaker 1: could think of is that let me see if it's in.
Speaker 2: I'm sure if you did the face identity it would
Speaker 2: pull it up.
Speaker 1: Oh one day, thanks for the help. Great. I don't know.
Speaker 2: It used to like piss me off so bad because
Speaker 2: it was like our family is just so brutal with
Speaker 2: busting each other's balls, and I just couldn't handle it.
Speaker 2: And then I don't know, I was.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean that's that's really I was so mad.
Speaker 1: That's just how we are with each other about everything.
Speaker 2: I was so mad that Aunt Jane printed like, seriously
Speaker 2: forty copies of this picture.
Speaker 1: I was like, you guys, are found it. You really
Speaker 1: like you were really mad. That was what was funny
Speaker 1: about it, too, is that you were like projecting your
Speaker 1: anger on Aunt Jane. And I'd be like, dude, chill
Speaker 1: out on Aunt Jane, Like she just took a picture,
Speaker 1: like she's not she wasn't trying to have to.
Speaker 2: Print sabotage Lillien copies of it and hand them around it.
Speaker 1: All right, guys, are you ready now? Seriously? Like I
Speaker 1: I can go as this is really bad. Actually, I
Speaker 1: quick go as far though as to say so my
Speaker 1: niece Deanna is in this picture.
Speaker 2: Too, embarrass her. All right, let me see if block
Speaker 2: my friend that was eating looks cute?
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, I'm gonna cut them out as much
Speaker 1: as possible so you can't recognize them. Are you ready?
Speaker 1: How do we get this? So ugly? This is really bad?
Speaker 1: Your hair is like, dude, look at your hair? It
Speaker 1: looks how do you good? It's just you look looks
Speaker 1: like you look like Pat from Saturday Night Live. Fat.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I'm crying. I can't believe that this
Speaker 1: is gonna be on the internet forever and ever. You
Speaker 1: know what I feel like?
Speaker 2: That's growth allowing.
Speaker 1: It's so fan. You've really made it through another step
Speaker 1: of your of your recovery. I'd rather release it than
Speaker 1: have somebody else released. Oh my god, it's so good.
Speaker 2: I think I was able to get over it finally
Speaker 2: because I'm just like.
Speaker 1: This just cannot be actually picture. I wish I had
Speaker 1: the one of the with the black dot on it,
Speaker 1: because that was fucking hilarious. Listen, I will accept it
Speaker 1: that I've grown from that moment. And if an uglier
Speaker 1: picture of me is ever taken, I just don't think
Speaker 1: it can be. I feel like everybody could speak to
Speaker 1: this that they have a picture of themselves that is
Speaker 1: like the worst picture that ever existed of that I
Speaker 1: was also twelve years like, I have like fifty of them.
Speaker 1: You know why because my husband takes even though he's
Speaker 1: a photographer and I would definitely say that he's an artist,
Speaker 1: he takes the worst photos of me. Yes, Like he's like, oh,
Speaker 1: let me see if I could accentuate all of your
