1
00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:08,719
Speaker 1: It's the radio segment that's doing a Crocodile Hunter spinoff

2
00:00:08,880 --> 00:00:12,720
Speaker 1: called people Hunter, where an Australian guy jumps on the

3
00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:16,520
Speaker 1: backs of large American tourists, wrestles them to the ground,

4
00:00:16,560 --> 00:00:19,400
Speaker 1: and then pats their bellies to put him right to sleep.

5
00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:22,320
Speaker 1: And you can learn a lot from the People Hunter

6
00:00:22,520 --> 00:00:26,799
Speaker 1: and from laser stories get really quickly. Why would I

7
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:29,840
Speaker 1: pay for that service? Totally? Yeah, the segment where we

8
00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:32,080
Speaker 1: read weird news stories around the globe, just like everyone

9
00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:34,760
Speaker 1: else does, except we've got a laser. There's other BOSSI

10
00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:37,680
Speaker 1: assis just don't. This first laser story is out of

11
00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:41,159
Speaker 1: gamers corner. Yes, if you know a kid that's a

12
00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:44,639
Speaker 1: hardcore gamer, adult or an adult, then you know they

13
00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:47,880
Speaker 1: can't stop long enough to answer the door, answer the phone,

14
00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:51,040
Speaker 1: or answer you because they're stuck on level ninety five

15
00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:56,640
Speaker 1: of Lawnmower Simulator Grassroots Revolution who seriously, Now, everything is live,

16
00:00:56,760 --> 00:00:59,680
Speaker 1: so when mom says pause the game, I can't pause it.

17
00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:04,400
Speaker 1: I'm still saying that to you. Mom stopping I'll be

18
00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:06,399
Speaker 1: out there in a minute. I'm not ready for dinner.

19
00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:11,800
Speaker 1: So if they're too busy live gaming, this is something

20
00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:16,040
Speaker 1: they might be into. Pines apparently developed a robot that

21
00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:19,840
Speaker 1: can give gamers an extra hand by dipping their snacks

22
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:27,520
Speaker 1: for them and feeding them as they play. Because it's

23
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:29,679
Speaker 1: so intense you can't even put the controller down for

24
00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:34,200
Speaker 1: a second. The hands free dipping machine is called the

25
00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:38,400
Speaker 1: Hum Hum and it recently debuted at the Esports World

26
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:42,200
Speaker 1: Cup in Saudi Arabia. Oh my god. It's a robot

27
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:45,200
Speaker 1: holding a fork as a chicken nugget on it, and

28
00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:47,760
Speaker 1: then there's two either ranch or ketchup that it can

29
00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:50,920
Speaker 1: dip in. It's got a mechanical hand that can dip

30
00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:54,600
Speaker 1: and feed the gamers while they continue on with their game.

31
00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:59,040
Speaker 1: The players can activate the machine using pedals, but future

32
00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:01,480
Speaker 1: editions of the Hum Hum will be controlled by voice

33
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:06,440
Speaker 1: commands and face recognition, so I can just yell in

34
00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:09,560
Speaker 1: the mouth and they'll know exactly what to do and

35
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:12,360
Speaker 1: tell it malfunctions and you're eating eighty like you become

36
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:17,840
Speaker 1: Joey Chestnut chicken nuggets in three seconds. Yes, on the surface,

37
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:20,840
Speaker 1: it seems like a silly stunt, but they say it's serious,

38
00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:24,000
Speaker 1: really serious, And there are photos of this thing on

39
00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:26,720
Speaker 1: the Brook and Jeffrey Insta stories if you're curious. But

40
00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:29,200
Speaker 1: that said, it's unclear if they would ever be made

41
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:32,680
Speaker 1: available for sale publicly, and if so, how much they

42
00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:36,320
Speaker 1: would cost. Okay, No one's reevaluating their life that they

43
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:38,839
Speaker 1: need this. I know. I see what you're saying. Brook.

44
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:43,800
Speaker 1: This is what a girlfriend is for, right, Okay, good point, Brook.

45
00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:47,400
Speaker 1: This next laser story is out of free It's out

46
00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:54,240
Speaker 1: of Japan. Twenty four year old name Uki Tatanabe begins

47
00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:56,760
Speaker 1: work at nine am every day, and if it's a

48
00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:59,760
Speaker 1: good day, she goes home at nine pm on a

49
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:04,000
Speaker 1: she'll be there till eleven at night. God, and that's

50
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:07,280
Speaker 1: fairly normal in Tokyo for professionals to work twelve to

51
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:12,000
Speaker 1: fourteen hour days. Why don't we have families and kids

52
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:15,040
Speaker 1: over here? Seriously? And it's like the same guys doing

53
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:19,840
Speaker 1: the same. Uki worked for one of Japan's largest telecom companies,

54
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,440
Speaker 1: and after three years, she realized the long days were

55
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:26,240
Speaker 1: affecting her health and she knew she needed to quit. Yeah,

56
00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:29,680
Speaker 1: but her boss wouldn't let her, and nobody got time.

57
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:33,520
Speaker 1: What do you mean they wouldn't letter you just leave,

58
00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:37,880
Speaker 1: don't come back, Uki? You know in Japan, workers traditionally

59
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:42,280
Speaker 1: stick with one employer for decades or their entire life, okay,

60
00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:44,400
Speaker 1: and if they give a resignation letter it can be

61
00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:49,880
Speaker 1: seen as the ultimate form of disrespect. The bosses often

62
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:53,040
Speaker 1: just rip the letters up and force the worker to

63
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:57,120
Speaker 1: stay in their job, and then punish them by assigning

64
00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:02,120
Speaker 1: them even more hours. Right down. Oh that's not right.

65
00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:05,280
Speaker 1: It's gotten making a note. Never moved to Japan to

66
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:08,320
Speaker 1: be a professional. It's gotten so bad with employers. They'll

67
00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:11,920
Speaker 1: even come to your apartment and refuse to leave unless

68
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:16,520
Speaker 1: you agree to come back to work. Oh so your

69
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:19,880
Speaker 1: boss is stalking you, basically pretty much, and you Key,

70
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:23,440
Speaker 1: along with eleven thousand others this year alone, have hired

71
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:29,679
Speaker 1: a resignation agency to quit for them for one hundred

72
00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:32,679
Speaker 1: and fifty dollars. The firm pledges to help employees tender

73
00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:36,960
Speaker 1: their resignations, negotiate with their companies, and provide lawyers if

74
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:41,159
Speaker 1: legal disputes arise. Yay, it's so popular there. The owner

75
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:44,880
Speaker 1: says they have a six month wait list to get

76
00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:48,800
Speaker 1: onto the resignation line. If people can't quit, that's so weird.

77
00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:51,760
Speaker 1: It really makes me rethink my whole like employment situation

78
00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:54,080
Speaker 1: here more grateful for it, you know, I wish you

79
00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:55,680
Speaker 1: were the opposite way when they come to fire me

80
00:04:55,720 --> 00:05:00,600
Speaker 1: and I'm like, I decline your yeah, yeah, come back,

81
00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:05,240
Speaker 1: sit on your doorstep till you met This next laser

00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:18,240
Speaker 1: if you're hired as a pumpkin spice taste tester. Wow,

85
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:22,400
Speaker 1: a national marketing company, says they'll pay someone one thousand

86
00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:25,839
Speaker 1: dollars to try all of the pumpkin flavored products that

87
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:32,479
Speaker 1: Trader Joe's are going to be selling. This TJ tjs

88
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:35,560
Speaker 1: do have some good pumpkin stuff. Also have to rate

89
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:39,520
Speaker 1: each product, and the actual job title is Pumpkin spice Pundit.

90
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:43,839
Speaker 1: As for how many Trader Joe's pumpkins spice products you'll

91
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:46,760
Speaker 1: have to try, they say last year it was around thirty.

92
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:53,960
Speaker 1: This year close to sixty. Stepping it up everything from

Speaker 1: pumpkin waffles to pumpkin spice ginger brew and you'll only

94
00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:00,960
Speaker 1: have about two weeks to do it. Oh man, it's

95
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:04,279
Speaker 1: betting it's gonna move into other industries like plumbers and stuff.

96
00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:07,280
Speaker 1: Will be like, yeah, I got pumpkin spices cocking. Yeah,

107
00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:41,719
Speaker 1: story is out of the vast land of beverages. Thinking

108
00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:43,640
Speaker 1: about knocking back a few beers for the start of

109
00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:46,760
Speaker 1: the NFL season. If you really want to up your

110
00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:50,760
Speaker 1: chances of puking, here's another option. Trending on social media

111
00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:57,400
Speaker 1: is something called gator wine. I'm listening, what do you

112
00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:03,479
Speaker 1: have for me, Jeffrey. That's wine plus gatorade the electrolytes in.

113
00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:07,960
Speaker 1: It's like the world's trashiest sangrea. That's what it sounds like.

114
00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:10,800
Speaker 1: There is a specific recipe, so I don't just go

115
00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:13,760
Speaker 1: tossing a lemon lin in with some sharpena. That would

116
00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:16,800
Speaker 1: be stupid. Let me guess you have to have red gatorade. No,

117
00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:21,200
Speaker 1: the real recipe is equal parts light blue Glacier Freeze

118
00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:25,520
Speaker 1: gatorade along with any cheap red wine that's less than

119
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:27,840
Speaker 1: twelve dollars a bottle. I really thought we were going

120
00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:29,720
Speaker 1: to go with a soft blanc to mix. Sure that

121
00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:33,560
Speaker 1: it blew up after a popular YouTube series called Binging

122
00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:37,240
Speaker 1: with Babbish did a taste test. The guy didn't love it,

123
00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:40,200
Speaker 1: but said it was better than cheap wine just on

124
00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:44,080
Speaker 1: its own, So he used Glacier Freeze gatorade like the

125
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:47,400
Speaker 1: recipe said, plus a cheap bottle of Barefoot Pinot noir.

126
00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:50,880
Speaker 1: Oh see, I want to know how the headache is

127
00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:53,400
Speaker 1: the next morning. Like doesn't improve it? Not sure you

128
00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 1: might get sick, but at least you'll be somewhat hydrated.

129
00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 1: Em Like an athlete. This guy always has a box

130
00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:04,320
Speaker 1: of eight or wine ready for any occasion. He doesn't

131
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:08,440
Speaker 1: drink it, though he swims laps in it. Good for

132
00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:11,680
Speaker 1: the joints. That sow means Laser Stories has come to

133
00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:13,840
Speaker 1: an end for the day. We'll do it again, same

134
00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:17,360
Speaker 1: time on Friday. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning
