Speaker 1: Are you leave the I you wanna way back home?
Speaker 2: Either way, we want to be there.
Speaker 1: Doesn't matter how much baggage you claim and give us
Speaker 1: time and a terminol and gayy a.
Speaker 2: We want to send you off instide.
Speaker 3: We wanna welcome you back home. Tell us all about it.
Speaker 2: We scared her? Was it fine? Melcorn? Do you need
Speaker 2: to ride? Do you need to ride? Do you need
Speaker 2: to ride?
Speaker 3: Do you need to ride? Do you need to ride?
Speaker 2: Do your need you ride?
Speaker 1: Ride? Do you need.
Speaker 2: With Karen and Chris welcome to Do you need a ride?
Speaker 2: This is Chris Fairbanks and this.
Speaker 3: Is Karen Kilgarriff.
Speaker 1: Hello, Hi boys, I am very happy to see you.
Speaker 3: Happy to see you as well, Chris.
Speaker 2: What'd you do today?
Speaker 3: Gird?
Speaker 1: Well from.
Speaker 3: I have gourd.
Speaker 1: I was just thinking because one of my leftover I
Speaker 1: think I have. I don't think I have long COVID,
Speaker 1: but I know I have. I got the worst COVID
Speaker 1: of the two that people are getting right now. One's
Speaker 1: short and one is taking a while.
Speaker 2: Yes, so mine's.
Speaker 3: Taking a while. So I still have some of my taste.
Speaker 1: Buds aren't working in the way where coffee tastes very
Speaker 1: bad to me in a way it never has in
Speaker 1: my life. I drink black coffee in the morning and
Speaker 1: I can't. It's all of the good parts of drinking
Speaker 1: black coffee have been removed, and it just tastes like hot,
Speaker 1: gross water.
Speaker 2: That is all I have. My friend Lance has lost
Speaker 2: a bunch of weight. He hasn't been able to taste.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 2: And it's worse than that. He can't taste much for
Speaker 2: like a year and a half now, and he's like
Speaker 2: a skinny guy.
Speaker 3: Oh okay.
Speaker 2: And he said bacon and thing like meat, like savory
Speaker 2: things that he used to always eat taste awful or
Speaker 2: have no taste at all to him.
Speaker 3: Well, and that's the that happened to me. Okay.
Speaker 1: Wait, So the point why I say gurd because the
Speaker 1: point was what was the point?
Speaker 2: I just I thought that was a phrase like egads
Speaker 2: or something else from him a Kafee cartoon. I didn't.
Speaker 2: I didn't know what that word meant.
Speaker 1: Oh I was saying it was like I was saying,
Speaker 1: oh God, but I changed the word. But there is
Speaker 1: actually a medical condition called GIRD which has something to
Speaker 1: do with like acid reflux.
Speaker 2: Oh okay, which is.
Speaker 1: What made me laugh about it. But tell your friend lance.
Speaker 1: This is important because my sister sent me this TikTok
Speaker 1: that basically, you if you get someone else to flick
Speaker 1: you on the back of the head, it is a
Speaker 1: proven way that people are getting their sense of taste back.
Speaker 2: No, I swear that sounds like it's something I would say,
Speaker 2: and you would say, there's no way. Stop making things.
Speaker 1: I would say, Chris, stop believing what everything you read on.
Speaker 2: Tikbook, although I will add be careful when you do that.
Speaker 2: Don't be making a goofy face because it'll stick that way.
Speaker 1: That's right, but you will have your take. You can
Speaker 1: have so much bacon.
Speaker 2: What is it that that is insane to me? That's
Speaker 2: it's really weird.
Speaker 1: But a doctor is the person explaining it, and it's
Speaker 1: something about that's the I don't know. I don't know
Speaker 1: at all, And I was about to make I love
Speaker 1: to make up the reason, but it's what I think,
Speaker 1: but it's not the truth.
Speaker 2: Well, there's subtle things like that the trigger massive changes,
Speaker 2: like the time Jimmy Pardo said he had Bell's palsy
Speaker 2: for like a year, like the half of his face
Speaker 2: went numb. Yeah, like he had had a stroke and
Speaker 2: he got it from a fan blowing on him. Huh,
Speaker 2: it doesn't that sound like something I'm making It sounded
Speaker 2: like something he was making up, and I'm like, seriously,
Speaker 2: and he said, yes, oftentimes a light wind on your
Speaker 2: face is what triggers Bell's pulses.
Speaker 3: I thought it was a virus.
Speaker 2: I swear that's what he said. If the word virus,
Speaker 2: you also have to have the virus. I maybe am
Speaker 2: leaving out that.
Speaker 3: Then a very Please don't go to the Grand Canyon.
Speaker 1: Please don't go to any outlooks or outcroppings or lighthouses
Speaker 1: because the wind will give you Bell's palsy. Well, but
Speaker 1: if your friend is really suffering with this, like my
Speaker 1: sister sent me this video immediately, and I was like,
Speaker 1: I'm going to wait and just see if I can
Speaker 1: kind of yet my bad eating in control, because I
Speaker 1: have been drinking coffee almost like against my will in
Speaker 1: the morning, and then I just have no appetite. And
Speaker 1: when I do go, oh, I think I'm actually hungry
Speaker 1: because I can't tell. My eating is so disordered that
Speaker 1: I eat cyclically and habitually as opposed to my body
Speaker 1: feels hungry. Now, I feed it and then I wait
Speaker 1: until it's hungry again. It doesn't work like that for me.
Speaker 1: So without having taste, like, there's no satisfaction. There's no like, ooh,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna pop one of those in my mouth. It's
Speaker 1: just like it's just a job. You have to choose
Speaker 1: some weird thing and it's all texture.
Speaker 2: Oh so I'm sorry that sounds awful.
Speaker 3: It's weird, but I'm not. I don't mind it. I
Speaker 3: will say this. It's better for me and the way
Speaker 3: that I do things.
Speaker 1: But the other night, I was like, well, I'm hardly
Speaker 1: eating anything, so I'm gonna eat I get ice cream.
Speaker 2: That was my logic because sweet things you can taste, right.
Speaker 2: My friend told me he can taste like candies and
Speaker 2: things like that.
Speaker 1: That for me, the taste, it's the only way I
Speaker 1: can describe it. Is it The sensation is like because
Speaker 1: I know what it tastes like. I eat the same
Speaker 1: thing over and over, and I like very specific things.
Speaker 1: So if I'm eating Ben and Jerry's Chubby Hubby, which
Speaker 1: is what I was eating, I know what I'm supposed
Speaker 1: to be tasting. So it's very difficult for me to
Speaker 1: know whether or not I'm tasting or not because I
Speaker 1: can remember and the texture and da da dad.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: For me, when I had this in my mouth, it
Speaker 1: was like, God, I think that says freezer burned. This
Speaker 1: seems stale. There's something wrong with this ice cream. And
Speaker 1: I kept doing that, like bite after bite, until I
Speaker 1: finally went, you can't actually taste it. You're just experiencing
Speaker 1: the texture. And you don't like the texture without the taste,
Speaker 1: without the flavor.
Speaker 2: That is twilight zone scary to me.
Speaker 3: It's very strange.
Speaker 2: My other friend Kurt that has had he also had
Speaker 2: in a bit to taste and he's gained weight because
Speaker 2: he was chasing. He was chasing flavor. He was out
Speaker 2: there flavor chasing, and I relate. Yeah, So he said
Speaker 2: he had gained weight because of this inability to taste.
Speaker 1: He was kind of going around and like maybe this
Speaker 1: will work, Maybe this will work.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's yeah, and I feel for him. I'm glad
Speaker 2: I just got this eyeball rash that's jumping to the
Speaker 2: other eye. I mean, that's that's all I really have
Speaker 2: to rag about.
Speaker 1: And you can console yourself with a nice slice of
Speaker 1: pizza or I was eating nachos last night and I'm like,
Speaker 1: these are the worst nachos I've ever had, And then
Speaker 1: I'm like, no, these are actually they're good.
Speaker 3: I've loved them before.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's because I'm I'm only experiencing crunch bean softness,
Speaker 1: salsa like wetness, Like it's it's such a weird thing.
Speaker 3: It's it's so hard to explain.
Speaker 2: I would be eating chips and pico de gayo, or
Speaker 2: I would be eating texture explosions.
Speaker 1: Yes, I've been doing a lot of tortilla chips by
Speaker 1: themselves because feels stuff on it. Yeah, just so because
Speaker 1: I think salt is coming through. But I was explaining
Speaker 1: to my sister that it's like the flavor is just
Speaker 1: around the corner, Like I know the idea of what
Speaker 1: I'm supposed to be tasting, and it's just kind of
Speaker 1: right over there, but I can't get to it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you don't know how long how long the
Speaker 2: road is before that corner.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the sidewalk could be it could be hundreds of
Speaker 1: miles long, this sidewalk.
Speaker 2: Well, just so you know, both my friends. Sometimes it
Speaker 2: is gradually coming back, but literally more than a year. God, yeah,
Speaker 2: they that was back. No vaccine, you know, Delta Delta spirit, right.
Speaker 1: That's what happened to my sister's friend Adrian. She was
Speaker 1: one of the very first people that we knew that
Speaker 1: got COVID in quarantine.
Speaker 3: Like month two.
Speaker 1: We were all scared shitless. We thought she was gonna die,
Speaker 1: We thought something horrible was gonna happen.
Speaker 3: She was scared shitless.
Speaker 1: But the only good thing was she and her son
Speaker 1: got it like he got it because he went camping
Speaker 1: with his friends, walked in the door and then got
Speaker 1: a text and it said I have COVID, so that
Speaker 1: means you have COVID, and so he's like, uh, I
Speaker 1: have COVID, which means you have COVID to her. So
Speaker 1: then they kind of got to quarantine together.
Speaker 3: Which is cute. Yeah, but he did not lose his
Speaker 3: taste and she did.
Speaker 1: So every night he'd be like, hey, what should we
Speaker 1: get and be all excited because they had nothing else
Speaker 1: to do. They were just kind of trapped in the
Speaker 1: house and one of the main distractions was completely off
Speaker 1: the table, and she said she would do things like, oh,
Speaker 1: I'll just eat yogurt. That'll be a good way to
Speaker 1: get protein. And it was so disgusting, Wow, to have
Speaker 1: flavorless like that texture with no flavor.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just hilarious. The thing, I really would hate
Speaker 2: teat a banana if I couldn't taste it, because texture wise,
Speaker 2: bananas are the worst, just pretty much full of mush.
Speaker 2: You think of someone else, and when your kids opening,
Speaker 2: do you like seafood and they open their mouth and
Speaker 2: there's banana in there. I'm still traumatized by that. Plus,
Speaker 2: bananas have veins on them that peel up there. Bananas
Speaker 2: are really just my sister hates them. They trigger the
Speaker 2: gag reflex.
Speaker 1: What about the kids in grammar school that would have
Speaker 1: like a medium brown banana in their lunch bag that
Speaker 1: would make everything else smell like banana in the like
Speaker 1: cloak room.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was that. I felt bad for those kids.
Speaker 2: They obviously had a bumpy bus ride to school, they.
Speaker 3: Had an abusive father used to beat up the bananas.
Speaker 2: At least it's not you kid just punching a bunch
Speaker 2: of bananas. Yeah, I had.
Speaker 1: I just had four bananas go bad because every time
Speaker 1: I'd look at them, I'd be like, well, you could
Speaker 1: fry them up, you could do this, you could make
Speaker 1: a banana bread. I'm just like, no, it won't work.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I just I buy bananas just to watch them die. Yeah, often,
Speaker 2: often I do that. Yeah, they really complete a kitchen counter.
Speaker 2: Just esthetically. I like the look of bananas, and then
Speaker 2: I never get around to eating them.
Speaker 1: Well, you know what it is when I buy and
Speaker 1: I always buy four bananas, like, oh.
Speaker 2: Never more than me two, three or four.
Speaker 3: It has to be three or four. It can't be six.
Speaker 3: That's a waste.
Speaker 1: But in my mind when I'm buying them, I'm like
Speaker 1: for when I'm like on the go, like if I
Speaker 1: just need to grab it and go where It's like,
Speaker 1: when is the last time that happened in this COVID
Speaker 1: reality that we live, And I'm not going anywhere.
Speaker 2: Not, I am just happy to see you, because who
Speaker 2: the hell puts a banana in their pocket when they're
Speaker 2: going out the door.
Speaker 4: It's gonna bend in half and mush.
Speaker 3: They're sensitive.
Speaker 2: Today, I felt like I've been inactive, So I went
Speaker 2: on a bike ride to the base of the m
Speaker 2: this trail on the mountain next to my town and
Speaker 2: my college is there, and I went around college. I
Speaker 2: tried to go into the library to find proof that
Speaker 2: the Missoulian newspaper repeatedly put my address in the names
Speaker 2: of my parents on multiple photos of me dressed like
Speaker 2: a crossing guard. I know it's there, but these be
Speaker 2: shift librarians. They didn't know about microfiche. I thought it
Speaker 2: was easy to scroll through old newspapers, but you got
Speaker 2: to go down to the basement, get some film, go
Speaker 2: to another level, get on this projector thing. Anyway, I
Speaker 2: did not find the proof, but I'm going to find it.
Speaker 1: Well, you know why, because microfiche is like it's like
Speaker 1: asking for a real to reel.
Speaker 2: Tape they have. Well, that's why libraries are amazing. Though
Speaker 2: it's still dewey decimal system. It's still the same books
Speaker 2: of old newspapers from the twenties. Like I did look
Speaker 2: around at stuff. It is kind of cool. But I
Speaker 2: spent a long time in the library today. It was
Speaker 2: just empty. But I it just all these memories of college,
Speaker 2: and I just had this feeling that, like, I wish
Speaker 2: I could go to college again with the confidence I
Speaker 2: have now and with access to a computer. I used
Speaker 2: to go to that library and use their Tandy computers
Speaker 2: black screen, the green processor, yes, and I would try
Speaker 2: and finish my papers before I didn't have a disc.
Speaker 2: I was ill prepared and not organized, and they would
Speaker 2: like turn off the power and I'd lose papers. That
Speaker 2: would happen multiple times, and I'd have to go the
Speaker 2: next day and start over. I spent so much time
Speaker 2: in that library because it was the only place when
Speaker 2: I was living in the dorms that people weren't partying
Speaker 2: and drinking forties in the hallway. I just realized I
Speaker 2: really did today. I realized I really did try hard
Speaker 2: in college. And how did it turn out? I just
Speaker 2: was bad at that writing papers because I didn't have access.
Speaker 2: It's just all these memories came flooding back.
Speaker 3: But did you actually graduate from college?
Speaker 2: I did, indeed.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Oh well then that turned out good?
Speaker 2: It did. I mean, that's the thing I've never told you.
Speaker 2: I've never shown my frame diploma to anyone. It's I want.
Speaker 3: To recally, nobody cares.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I just immediately left town and started doing stand
Speaker 2: up with my Bachelor of Arts, you know, draw emphasis
Speaker 2: and drawing and painting and art history. I've never used it. Yeah,
Speaker 2: And I don't know. I just it was cool to
Speaker 2: be on campus. That's all I'm saying. I have not
Speaker 2: visited my school since I.
Speaker 1: Grew problem with you being on campus with that mustache, though,
Speaker 1: is that time has passed? Yes, you aren't a college
Speaker 1: student and you're also loitering in the library with that mustache.
Speaker 3: Has did anything come?
Speaker 2: Everyone there was older than me? That was the other thing.
Speaker 2: It's like, is this summertime is when non traditional students go.
Speaker 2: Maybe it was mostly empty there, but I promise you
Speaker 2: all the people I made full eye contact with today
Speaker 2: with my mustache were my age. Do you think I
Speaker 2: should shave it now? I feel like I'm creepy.
Speaker 3: Well, you're creepy on a college campus.
Speaker 2: I am creepy.
Speaker 1: I think in the rest of life, You're fine. It's
Speaker 1: very it's hip that people are having those that. Also,
Speaker 1: you just started licking at a bunch. Stop saying just
Speaker 1: for me, yeah, just for this experience purposes of Zoom.
Speaker 2: Maybe I can say for.
Speaker 3: This zoom meeting that we're having.
Speaker 2: And you're right. I was just going up to a
Speaker 2: lot of strangers and saying, I used to go to
Speaker 2: school here. Do you work for a lady named Chris?
Speaker 2: She's my neighbor. She used to plant these plants. I
Speaker 2: guess she's retired now that that was a young person
Speaker 2: that I freaked out you're right. I did do it.
Speaker 2: I did do it, damn it.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I almost bought a University of Montana sweatshirt. I wanted
Speaker 2: to represent. It was just fun to experience that. But
Speaker 2: I will not be able to walk tomorrow because I
Speaker 2: did run up this trail and my legs are not
Speaker 2: going to work in the morning.
Speaker 3: Well, you know, you can take to leave.
Speaker 1: That's the great part about modern life is just go
Speaker 1: ahead and take some medicine.
Speaker 2: I think I will. I think I will perfect. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I'll be fine. You're right. Why am I getting worried
Speaker 2: about the future of soreness?
Speaker 1: Do you want to tell everybody about your golf tournament
Speaker 1: that you on the last episode got kind of you tried,
Speaker 1: you tried to fit it in and we wouldn't.
Speaker 3: Really no, I.
Speaker 2: Really really forced it. I really did. You know, we
Speaker 2: don't have to talk about it. It was very fun.
Speaker 2: It was beautiful. I was up in Big Sky, Montana.
Speaker 2: A lot of old football players that from the seventies.
Speaker 2: I didn't know who they were and.
Speaker 3: Were they still big?
Speaker 2: Were they meaty yes, like muscular guys in their sixties? Hot? Yes?
Speaker 2: And they I mean they were sweet. I did stand
Speaker 2: up for all of them. That sounds kind of scary.
Speaker 2: And for a lot of the sponsors before before the tournament,
Speaker 2: there was a night of stand up and uh yeah,
Speaker 2: And so there was a guy that got offended with
Speaker 2: some COVID joke I have about what's more Christian then
Speaker 2: letting other people die for your sins is the punchline,
Speaker 2: And he was like boo, he said boo. And I
Speaker 2: showed up the next day and he's he was the guy.
Speaker 2: He was the boss of these plumbers that I golfed
Speaker 2: with the next day, that exact guy that heckled.
Speaker 3: Wait, was he on your golf team?
Speaker 2: Yes, and he had a big cigar and I and
Speaker 2: he seemed like a conservative guy. And then and then
Speaker 2: by the end of the game, we are lifting each
Speaker 2: other up, We're hugging. I've never done so many fist pounds.
Speaker 2: We hugged, We jumped up and down in a circle
Speaker 2: hug when we won, and uh, it was really good
Speaker 2: for me. I think to bond. Those were real men.
Speaker 2: They have boiler's license.
Speaker 1: And now do you think that guy came around on
Speaker 1: your joke or do you think he just the love
Speaker 1: of the sport and the fact that you guys one
Speaker 1: covered over the joke.
Speaker 2: I know how to turn it off and just be around. Yeah,
Speaker 2: you know, I'm pretty serious when I'm golfing. And I
Speaker 2: was just nice to these guys. I killed them with
Speaker 2: kindness and then they were my friends by the end.
Speaker 3: Nice.
Speaker 2: It was a nice exercise. And then in the end
Speaker 2: they put all the scores on the board and we
Speaker 2: were by far the lowest score. We totally won.
Speaker 3: So what did you win?
Speaker 2: Five hundred dollars some clothes for yourself. We split amongst
Speaker 2: the group. You know, it was a fun It's like
Speaker 2: a They did use the word celebrity before my name
Speaker 2: and the winners, these four guys and celebrity Chris Fairbanks,
Speaker 2: and I was like, oh, I think it's funny after
Speaker 2: all these years, that's what I needed to hear. And
Speaker 2: and then yeah, we there was just a lot of
Speaker 2: at each tea box, at each hole, there was they
Speaker 2: were giving out stuff shirts and raincoats and hats.
Speaker 1: And oh like swag like stuff Po's logos on it.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, so I got a lot of fun
Speaker 1: I gos, a lot of swag bags, nice, and it
Speaker 1: was just, uh, yeah, it was really great. It was
Speaker 1: really good for me and I was happy that I
Speaker 1: was not intimidated by four guys that were way better.
Speaker 1: They just didn't make any mistakes. They're very good at golfing,
Speaker 1: and it made me better. Usually I am afraid that
Speaker 1: all get nervous and get in my head and then
Speaker 1: not golf as well. But I did golf better than
Speaker 1: I usually do.
Speaker 3: So they raised you up.
Speaker 2: Yeah, And it's that confidence thing that I wish I
Speaker 2: had when I was back in school. I think I
Speaker 2: want to go back to college. I think I'm going
Speaker 2: to die. I know, I shaved off the mustache and
Speaker 2: I just I'm like, and I brought my skateboard and
Speaker 2: I'd be like, hey, all.
Speaker 1: You guys, this is Chris Fairbanks thinking where You're like,
Speaker 1: it's better then, so I'm going to twist myself around,
Speaker 1: just try to recapture.
Speaker 3: Then it's not better. Then you've just decided that it's not.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm yeah, right. The minute I would decide to
Speaker 2: do that, I would panic and back out.
Speaker 3: You would hate it.
Speaker 1: So imagine going to fucking school now, are you crazy?
Speaker 3: It's not fun.
Speaker 2: I'm just wishing I could have done it differently then,
Speaker 2: not to do it over again. But all those writing classes,
Speaker 2: all the creative writing classes, all the long papers I wrote,
Speaker 2: I didn't. I kind of just phoned it in and
Speaker 2: did the minimum in it. And then when I graduated,
Speaker 2: I was like and started doing stand up. I'm like, oh,
Speaker 2: I should have become a writer. I like writing, and
Speaker 2: I didn't even realize it back then because I was
Speaker 2: a kid. You're a kid when you're in college.
Speaker 1: Right, But if you had realized it back then, then
Speaker 1: you would have never done stand up. Like all those
Speaker 1: things have to happen that, Like it's like there has
Speaker 1: to be a floor, so there can be a ceiling,
Speaker 1: so like, it wouldn't have meant that you would have
Speaker 1: become a writer, right, because if you had been like
Speaker 1: taking writing classes and gotten all serious about that, you
Speaker 1: would have rebelled as Chris Fairbanks would have, and you
Speaker 1: would have gone on and become a construction worker or whatever.
Speaker 1: Like it's almost like you had to phone it in
Speaker 1: and then go off and be a stand up to
Speaker 1: walk away from it.
Speaker 2: I'm more comparing it with the fact that I was
Speaker 2: focused there as an art major, and you had to
Speaker 2: spend time in the studio, you had to finish your paintings,
Speaker 2: and I took that all seriously, and I came out
Speaker 2: of college with full confidence as an artist, not as
Speaker 2: someone that confidently can do it as a business and
Speaker 2: ask people for money that is worth my time, but
Speaker 2: the actual doing the art. I wondered if I had
Speaker 2: spent more time writing, if I had come out of
Speaker 2: college like I'm a writer, I know how to do
Speaker 2: that because I didn't realize it. I still haven't realized it,
Speaker 2: That's all I'm saying. But you're right, maybe I would
Speaker 2: have rebelled and become some plumb and golfer, well also
Speaker 2: a golfer.
Speaker 1: It reminds me of that the last conversation we had
Speaker 1: with Andrew Mashan, where it's like it is this a simulation?
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter. So should I have done this? Should
Speaker 1: I have done that? It doesn't matter.
Speaker 2: It just doesn't.
Speaker 1: So it's like the past that we all have is
Speaker 1: what it was, and no one had. Like you're really
Speaker 1: good at pretending everybody else has it great and you
Speaker 1: have it bad and then going from there, so like
Speaker 1: you do that all your thinking and what I've heard
Speaker 1: you say over the years is that kind of thing
Speaker 1: where you romanticize what is impossible to recapture. So the
Speaker 1: next thing I see you doing is like you come
Speaker 1: back home, go to La Community College. You're taking a
Speaker 1: writing class and you fucking hate the teacher and that's
Speaker 1: your new thing. And then you just wasted three hundred
Speaker 1: dollars however much it costs, and now you're mad and
Speaker 1: telling yourself you're not a writer, Like you just have
Speaker 1: to go with the flow in terms of that experience
Speaker 1: was what it was because I had the same thing
Speaker 1: where I know what I did in college, which was
Speaker 1: essentially fuck around and then get kicked out, was a waste.
Speaker 3: It was a waste of my parents' money.
Speaker 1: Somebody else could have taken my spot, somebody that gave
Speaker 1: a shit whatever, and that was that was wasteful of
Speaker 1: me and bad of me. And I lived in that
Speaker 1: reality of I'm bad because I did that for so
Speaker 1: long until I finally one day was like, now I
Speaker 1: am a legitimate TV writer, so I think I can
Speaker 1: let go of whatever got me here, Like it's no
Speaker 1: longer a bad thing because it got me to where
Speaker 1: I am now.
Speaker 3: And like you're a you're.
Speaker 1: A person who gets paid to bullshit like this into
Speaker 1: a microphone, Like that's a pretty good place to land.
Speaker 2: I realize it every day, and it's also why I
Speaker 2: will continue to live in Los Angeles and do this
Speaker 2: with you. I love it. I do and I but
Speaker 2: I do it on stage, and of course, and I wonder.
Speaker 2: I often wonder, Hey, could I live in Montana and
Speaker 2: still be a comic. I wouldn't be practicing enough, so
Speaker 2: I can't do it. But that is I'm just getting
Speaker 2: nostalgic more than anything. I'm not having regrets necessarily. I
Speaker 2: just went through campus and I was like, it brought
Speaker 2: back good memories. I didn't want to make it sound
Speaker 2: like I was like, oh, I blew it. That's not
Speaker 2: what I was feeling. I just started talking that way
Speaker 2: right now. Oh, okay, I actually had a nice experience.
Speaker 2: I can only go on what you're saying. Yeah, I know.
Speaker 3: I can only take the facts as I'm hearing them.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just a different life that I was revisiting.
Speaker 2: Like I've been asked by my old friend is like
Speaker 2: the media arts head of that department. He asked me
Speaker 2: to teach a photoshop class a few years back, and
Speaker 2: I was like, I could do that. I could go
Speaker 2: teach a class and I saw how much work had
Speaker 2: to go into it and how little it and I
Speaker 2: was like, ah, maybe maybe I'll just keep doing what
Speaker 2: I'm doing.
Speaker 1: That is a very fun exercise, though of like, could
Speaker 1: I like for a while when I thought in twenty
Speaker 1: sixteen when my house was in forthclosure and I was like,
Speaker 1: I think I'm just going to put my dogs in
Speaker 1: the car and drive to Peddlum and never look back.
Speaker 2: And then I was like, God, that was very long ago.
Speaker 3: No it was not.
Speaker 2: And that was when you had all the tax like
Speaker 2: you were ignoring tax stuff, and so I was I
Speaker 2: and we needed someone to hold her hand through all
Speaker 2: that tap stuff. That was man who really horrifying.
Speaker 1: But at that time, well, but the point I was
Speaker 1: making is I was doing that and thinking, Okay, I
Speaker 1: can just go live at my dad's house, like I
Speaker 1: know he won't kick me out. I have a place
Speaker 1: I could actually go and my family is all up there,
Speaker 1: and that actually would be nice.
Speaker 3: It'd be nice to be.
Speaker 1: Around people who know me, who who know who me
Speaker 1: as who I really am, and not this kind of
Speaker 1: like pretend city girl act I've been doing for the
Speaker 1: past twenty five years. I'm like, I'm in La and
Speaker 1: I don't give it shit about anything. And then my
Speaker 1: sister's like shut up and get in the car. So
Speaker 1: like it's very comforting to be at home. And then
Speaker 1: it's like, oh, I could work at Starbucks. They give
Speaker 1: you insurance, like there's you know, there's pluses here. But
Speaker 1: I truly realized that's pretty much the only job I
Speaker 1: could get, or some favor job of like a relative.
Speaker 1: But other than that, I'm not qualified in any other
Speaker 1: city besides Los Angeles and parts of New York. But like,
Speaker 1: I can't make a living, a meaningful living for myself
Speaker 1: anywhere else because of the fuckery that I've chosen to
Speaker 1: completely go full bore on in this town. And that's
Speaker 1: kind of like, well, that's then I better just hang
Speaker 1: out and see if I can solve any of these
Speaker 1: problems and fucking see what I can do about this.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I'm glad I've made the decisions I made,
Speaker 2: But I wow, I was on campus. I also walked
Speaker 2: into a room. I wanted to look at the pool
Speaker 2: tables in there because I think my dad and stepmom
Speaker 2: should be playing pool. They're both good at it. And
Speaker 2: I just ran into my good friend that was installing
Speaker 2: sign like vinyl on the wall, and years ago he
Speaker 2: asked me if I wanted to start a sign company
Speaker 2: with him. And my other friend Andrew was in there,
Speaker 2: and that was sort of like seeing me and they're
Speaker 2: they were putting up stuff on the wall that they
Speaker 2: had designed, and I had liked that kind of work.
Speaker 2: That's what I was doing when I left, And you know,
Speaker 2: it's it was just kind of cool to see that.
Speaker 2: But it's not regrets, just looking at a version of
Speaker 2: my life that I was leading for a while and
Speaker 2: I could still be doing it. It's more just interesting.
Speaker 1: It's almost like the Gwyneth Paltrow movie Sliding Doors, where
Speaker 1: it's just stepped that way.
Speaker 2: I can't believe I didn't bring up Sliding Doors, your favorite.
Speaker 1: Film, where that's the life you would have been living.
Speaker 1: I mean, like making signs. I love that idea because
Speaker 1: it's a trade. It's always needed. It involves the arts,
Speaker 1: but you get paid, you don't have to rely on
Speaker 1: like it's a consistent trade, real job, and yet you
Speaker 1: get to be artistic. We have a friend, my friend
Speaker 1: Amy O'Neil, who lives in Wisconsin. She for a while
Speaker 1: because she's a she's also a fine artist, and she
Speaker 1: for a while got a making the signs at a
Speaker 1: like very boutique fancy butcher shop.
Speaker 2: Wow.
Speaker 1: So she would like hand paint the little like Ribbi
Speaker 1: five ninety nine whatever, even.
Speaker 2: Just permanent paintings on a chalkboard and then they can
Speaker 2: write the specials that yeah, or she.
Speaker 1: Would do I think she was doing the little cards
Speaker 1: that would go into the like a refrigerator case, and
Speaker 1: and then she also did stuff on the wall, and
Speaker 1: I was like, that is the greatest feeling of this
Speaker 1: is almost like back to the Renaissance when artists would
Speaker 1: get paid because their art is useful and people would
Speaker 1: be like, yes, I want my shit to look good.
Speaker 1: Make it look good, as opposed to like these days
Speaker 1: where you can print up anything. Somebody hand painting a sign, you're.
Speaker 2: Right, And that is always kind of what I wanted
Speaker 2: to do and why I get excited when someone really
Speaker 2: passionately does it at a Trader Joe's and there's little drawings.
Speaker 2: Yehere there's gords and they'd draw a pumpkin and like
Speaker 2: someone actually put time in all the artwork. I love
Speaker 2: doing that. That's why I did in Austin and then
Speaker 2: painted some signs that ultimately fell off buildings and crushed cars.
Speaker 2: But it's not my fault. It gets that windy.
Speaker 3: You know, you didn't make it a sign. You painted this.
Speaker 2: I painted the sign, but it was I chose the
Speaker 2: heavy wood. It was four by sixteen feet to four
Speaker 2: x eight pieces of treated plywood. I had to hoist
Speaker 2: it up there with a pulley system. And then it
Speaker 2: was at a pet store. I maybe already told this story.
Speaker 2: I'm sure I did, but I spent a long time
Speaker 2: painting all these dogs.
Speaker 1: It seems familiar, but it is some thing. Sorry, just
Speaker 1: a p question before you go into this is why
Speaker 1: Thought's name would they get the painter to be the engineer.
Speaker 1: That seems like a mistake that you should have called
Speaker 1: at some point, Hey, I can't do this right.
Speaker 2: I first had just painted their windows a few Christmases,
Speaker 2: you know, just some dogs wearing some bows. And then
Speaker 2: they said we need a new sign, and I said
Speaker 2: I can do that. So I bought the way. I
Speaker 2: said I can do all that for you. They did.
Speaker 2: Someone did help me and they were They helped me
Speaker 2: install it, but we used the rotten a frame that
Speaker 2: was the previous signs. It was probably would from the
Speaker 2: turn of the centry. It was just old rotten wood
Speaker 2: that gave way in the wind, and the sign I
Speaker 2: made to no fault of mine crushed a car quite
Speaker 2: legitimately crushed on and shattered the windows, and there was
Speaker 2: just one of the dogheads kind of came off the sign.
Speaker 2: I cut out the top of the schnauzer's head. It
Speaker 2: just kind of came off, and that it was just
Speaker 2: crushed and the little top of the dog head was
Speaker 2: in the parking lot and I drove by and they
Speaker 2: weren't open, and I saw it and I saw the car,
Speaker 2: and I call it was so awful. They were so
Speaker 2: sweet about it. I thank god I was not held liable.
Speaker 2: I don't know, thank god, but I did put it
Speaker 2: up there with metal. Anyway, It's so funny that was.
Speaker 2: And meanwhile, I'm like going to my first open mics.
Speaker 2: It's just funny that I took that turn. And today
Speaker 2: seeing my friends doing that making those signs, it was.
Speaker 1: It was really this has been an unbelievable Chris Fairbanks
Speaker 1: Retrospective episode.
Speaker 2: I just like, I feel like one. I feel like
Speaker 2: lately and I don't. You don't have to agree, but
Speaker 2: you can I feel like lately, I've been interrupting you
Speaker 2: more than ever. You'll start saying something and I get
Speaker 2: so excited, like it used to with improv to tell
Speaker 2: a joke that I'll jump in when you're actually making
Speaker 2: a pretty good point and I've dunk and I'm like,
Speaker 2: god damn. Or you're in the middle of your joke
Speaker 2: and I've noticed that. And I got a message from
Speaker 2: someone that was sweetly worded, and they said, I notice
Speaker 2: that's been happening.
Speaker 3: Yes, it's something like a telegram.
Speaker 2: It's the person that called me a twap. But I
Speaker 2: now take their advice and some of the some of
Speaker 2: their criticism, and we have a friendly and forth. It's
Speaker 2: actually someone that I look to for guidance. Now, ok,
Speaker 2: this person that called me a twat, I'm kidding. That's
Speaker 2: a handful of people. I read the messages, you know,
Speaker 2: but I have been doing that, and I'm sorry I've
Speaker 2: been interrupting you. Like that's okay. One on one like this,
Speaker 2: we have a rhythm. But sometimes yeah, there's a guest
Speaker 2: and you and I haven't said anything for a while.
Speaker 2: I tredsingly blurred out you you panic, Yeah, you're in
Speaker 2: a nice conversation. With each other about women's rights, and
Speaker 2: I'll be like, asolve just fucking say a dad joke,
Speaker 2: and it's been happening and I prior to I can't
Speaker 2: blame COVID. I've just been I'm gonna I'm just watching it, okay.
Speaker 2: And also the other thing is like I just now
Speaker 2: did I've been hijacking with my stories.
Speaker 1: Listen, let me let me respond, please, will you talk? Well,
Speaker 1: first of all, I was just kidding about that because
Speaker 1: we have to talk about something, and I truly haven't
Speaker 1: been anywhere, and you are in a complete leader and
Speaker 1: city doing stuff.
Speaker 3: So I did not mind any of that. I was
Speaker 3: just giving you the biz.
Speaker 2: I know, I know, I didn't I did. It didn't
Speaker 2: seem like serious business. It seemed more like the monkey variety.
Speaker 3: It was totally monkey business. Yeah. I mean, that's the.
Speaker 1: Thing I'm used to as a female comic. It's a
Speaker 1: very very common thing. And I think it's because male
Speaker 1: comics do that to each other all the time and
Speaker 1: don't give a shit, And so it's like a vibe
Speaker 1: thing that I think when you aren't talking and other
Speaker 1: people are talking, you get almost you get like a
Speaker 1: little panic of like am I disappearing.
Speaker 3: I have to be in this, you know what I mean.
Speaker 3: That's the sense I have.
Speaker 1: I don't think that it's I don't get it as
Speaker 1: a negative. I don't think you don't care, like I
Speaker 1: know that you're a great guy, a good person, good
Speaker 1: at comedy, blah blah blah.
Speaker 3: So to me, I just feel like it's I get it.
Speaker 1: Where like my version of that because I just was
Speaker 1: raised like interrupting was like a very big deal in
Speaker 1: our household, and I know in talking to other people
Speaker 1: and especially since I've been podcasting, And I'm not saying
Speaker 1: I don't interrupt, I absolutely do, but I'll do it
Speaker 1: sometimes just because I know if I don't, I won't
Speaker 1: get in here. Like I feel like Andrew Machan was
Speaker 1: doing that because I think you and I were having
Speaker 1: so much fun on that last episode with Andrew Machan
Speaker 1: but also with each other.
Speaker 2: Get it excited.
Speaker 1: Yes, it's fun when you talk to a person who
Speaker 1: gives you fun ideas and then you're like, oh, listen
Speaker 1: to what you just made me think of?
Speaker 3: Is what is the vibe I get?
Speaker 2: And in a minute we're going to be onto another topic,
Speaker 2: and I have to say it now. And I'm sorry,
Speaker 2: but I'm going to interrupt because in a second and
Speaker 2: then if it falls flat, oh man, not only have
Speaker 2: I interrupted, but I really deflate at the moment.
Speaker 1: My thing is that you the thing that you do
Speaker 1: that it makes me laugh, but I usually will I
Speaker 1: will interrupt you if you start doing it. Is when
Speaker 1: you you do your joke and then people have the
Speaker 1: response that they have, and then you keep talking through
Speaker 1: it and you start explaining why this was a mistake,
Speaker 1: and you're going down and you verbally go down a
Speaker 1: shame spiral. And I usually will cut you off on
Speaker 1: one of those because I'm like, it doesn't need to
Speaker 1: be that big of a dea. Yeah, we don't mean, like,
Speaker 1: but that's an a mistake. But I guess that's how
Speaker 1: I feel, and that's why I'm a bad person.
Speaker 3: And you say, oh god commenting on it, God, I.
Speaker 2: Have to do some forensic analysis of crime that I've.
Speaker 1: You don't though, because this is it's because of Zoom.
Speaker 3: You in the car.
Speaker 1: It goes a different way because we're in We are
Speaker 1: in each other's company and so we get the rhythm
Speaker 1: is on, but Zoom sucks.
Speaker 2: Shit, it does, and it will continue too for a while,
Speaker 2: but I have to everyone that wants us to be
Speaker 2: back in the car riffing with passer buys on bikes
Speaker 2: and going talking about buildings. You can't see. We would
Speaker 2: have gotten someone sick this month, Karen around. Yeah, it's
Speaker 2: still happening, and uh, you know.
Speaker 1: It's happening just as strongly, if not worse than it's
Speaker 1: then happening in the past. It's just the people aren't
Speaker 1: being hospitalized as badly on this go round.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, which is.
Speaker 3: But also what.
Speaker 1: If we get in the car and somebody gets fucking
Speaker 1: monkey pocks, Like that's the new thing where I'm just like,
Speaker 1: you got to be kidding me with monkey pops.
Speaker 2: I haven't looked into it yet. I don't know much
Speaker 2: about the monkey pox.
Speaker 1: Monkey pox is for some people it's spread through sexual intercourse,
Speaker 1: but then also it's now spread through like if you
Speaker 1: touch someone that has the sores or their clothing. There's
Speaker 1: all kinds of it's expanding.
Speaker 2: That's why they just have you seen pictures of it?
Speaker 2: Is that what's on my eyes? I have monkey pocks
Speaker 2: on my eyes.
Speaker 3: If you had monkey pops, it wouldn't just be on
Speaker 3: your eyes.
Speaker 2: It would be a Yeah, No, that's just just my eyes.
Speaker 2: And I've had this before when I would get strap
Speaker 2: throat and chronic infection. You know, it's inflammation. It's a
Speaker 2: reactive you know. Sometimes it's my joints, other times it's
Speaker 2: eye bumps.
Speaker 3: And so you know what it is.
Speaker 2: I guess. But it did immediately when, like you, I
Speaker 2: was like starting to feel sick and I was just
Speaker 2: eating to make sure I still could taste. But that's
Speaker 2: right when these eye bumps started coming. And I'm sorry
Speaker 2: I keep saying, iye bumps, that's real. Gross. It's just
Speaker 2: a reddish, a bit of a it's a little rash
Speaker 2: around my eyes.
Speaker 1: It's no baker real, it's an eye rash. But you
Speaker 1: don't that's a concern. Yeah, And if you thought it before,
Speaker 1: then you know.
Speaker 2: What it is. I have had it in the past. Yes,
Speaker 2: that's good.
Speaker 3: That's very good news.
Speaker 1: You don't want like a new patch of something in
Speaker 1: this monkey pox era.
Speaker 2: I don't have in this era and in my life
Speaker 2: room for new rashes, new eye ailments, nope, ialments aal Oh,
Speaker 2: my gosh, I was meaning to talk to you about
Speaker 2: this because I was just looking. It turns out I
Speaker 2: am slightly, even though we're just talking about it, saying,
Speaker 2: no big deal, who cares? This is a simulation. I
Speaker 2: do like the web telescope photos of different galaxies. Okay,
Speaker 2: it did excite me, and I do think there's aliens,
Speaker 2: but I don't care. I don't think I'll ever get
Speaker 2: to meet one.
Speaker 3: Okay, maybe you already have.
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe I have. Maybe they kissed me on the
Speaker 2: eyes and gave me a spacely rash and now they're
Speaker 2: taking over. But you on Twitter re tweeted a video
Speaker 2: of my friend here in Missoula. He's not even my friend.
Speaker 2: He is a Missoula person that has been a viral
Speaker 2: YouTube person since the beginning.
Speaker 3: Oh, he is a Missoula celebrity.
Speaker 2: He is, and he started VidCon and my friend is
Speaker 2: CEO of VIDCN Colin, and my good friend Andy Chemis
Speaker 2: is their photographer. VIDCN is a Missoula based thing that
Speaker 2: is huge. They have it in San Diego at the
Speaker 2: Convention Center, and I just it was such is that videos?
Speaker 2: What's thatpps?
Speaker 3: What is it?
Speaker 2: Old? I it is a celebration of people, Like if
Speaker 2: we went there, we probably wouldn't know anything and there'd
Speaker 2: be a line out the door. For some Twitch video
Speaker 2: game famous kid or TikTok or it is like influencer
Speaker 2: based like everything. But what we've our little bubble of
Speaker 2: live performance and I don't think they have podcasting at
Speaker 2: it as far as I know, maybe they do. I
Speaker 2: don't know much.
Speaker 1: About it, but I know that Hank Green has a
Speaker 1: podcast because I interacted with him long ago when our
Speaker 1: podcast when My Favorite Murder first started and was popular,
Speaker 1: and so whatever he said to me, I can't remember
Speaker 1: what the interaction was. It was very minor, but people
Speaker 1: got super excited that we talked to each other, like
Speaker 1: our listeners who also loved him.
Speaker 3: They always loved that one.
Speaker 1: Yeah, when something combines where it's like two things I like.
Speaker 1: But I didn't know who he was because I am
Speaker 1: old and only pay attention to to British procedurals, right,
Speaker 1: But then started paying attention and he's so smart and
Speaker 1: great he is and that video he made about why
Speaker 1: that these pictures are so important is the greatest.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he is. He's very smart and he knows about
Speaker 2: a lot of different things. And as the more because
Speaker 2: I just follow him on Instagram, I don't but he
Speaker 2: is someone that has been a YouTube I think they
Speaker 2: VidCon came out of him learning what it meant to
Speaker 2: be a viral YouTuber. Oh, he was a vlogger person
Speaker 2: and from my town. So today when I was being
Speaker 2: nostalgic about my past, that came up too, Like could
Speaker 2: I be a comedian? What would I do if I
Speaker 2: did live in Montana? This place that makes me happy
Speaker 2: to be? So it's not insane that I think could
Speaker 2: I live here? Not as a way of running away,
Speaker 2: but he is someone that has wildly been successful, and
Speaker 2: he's from Missouli. He's from here, and he lives here,
Speaker 2: and this is not a big town, you know.
Speaker 1: And also it's not run away, especially these days when
Speaker 1: when quarantine happened and a bunch of people were like,
Speaker 1: I'm not living in la anymore. Where there's I'm not
Speaker 1: going to be by myself, there's nowhere to go, blah
Speaker 1: blah blah. Like a lot of people moved back to
Speaker 1: where they're from because you can now we.
Speaker 2: Can you can open learning. Yeah, you can do it, And.
Speaker 1: A lot of people made big life adjustments realizing I'm
Speaker 1: living in a town that's kind of nasty and very lonely,
Speaker 1: and my family is nowhere to be found and yeah,
Speaker 1: it's not like it's not the fat of the land nineties,
Speaker 1: like when I moved to LA and it's like, yeah, Dad,
Speaker 1: pay for me to go try to be a stand
Speaker 1: up gomic. It's like, it's those days are long gone.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's what I'm more confronted by. But
Speaker 2: it's a it's it's it's with promise and excitement. I
Speaker 2: think about coming here, but I also I like living
Speaker 2: in Los Angeles. I do. I'm right in the middle.
Speaker 2: I can't decide. I'm I will be happy doing either.
Speaker 2: Is what I need to realize.
Speaker 3: You know what it is.
Speaker 1: I think you just keep doing what you're doing, which
Speaker 1: is going there for big stretches of time when you
Speaker 1: can and then seeing what happens.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you do that too. We like to go home.
Speaker 3: I love to go home.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Well, also I love my family that literally uh missing
Speaker 1: my mom of course, but my family and the family
Speaker 1: that we used to live next door to are all
Speaker 1: still there. And the family I don't want to docks
Speaker 1: them or whatever, but that we spend the most time
Speaker 1: with still live on the.
Speaker 3: Property that we all grew up on.
Speaker 1: So going home is literally about as nostalgic as you
Speaker 1: can get because we're right in that spot, but it's
Speaker 1: all changed around us. So we can see our old
Speaker 1: house that we grew up in from age like two
Speaker 1: to about ten. We can see in the back of
Speaker 1: their property. It's so crazy. And then we're all now adults,
Speaker 1: which is very strange because truly it's me, my sister
Speaker 1: or my cousin Stevie, you know, like and then their
Speaker 1: kids and how the family's grown. And it's like, it's
Speaker 1: good too if you have the kind of family that
Speaker 1: you want to be with, right, you know, it is
Speaker 1: so helpful and good for your Yes, it's like it
Speaker 1: changes me when I go home. It like helps me immensely.
Speaker 2: And a lot of people would be traumatized by and
Speaker 2: we're not shoving it in your face, but I liked
Speaker 2: my life. Yes, well, you're lucky.
Speaker 3: We're very lucky to have places to go back to.
Speaker 2: Yes.
Speaker 1: And if I can get my cousin Stevie to put
Speaker 1: in a pool, I might move back here.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it would be the coolest. It's like out in.
Speaker 1: The middle of farmland in Pedaluma, and I'm like, I
Speaker 1: know it's not hot enough to justify this, but can't
Speaker 1: we talk about it.
Speaker 3: I know I can't make it happen.
Speaker 2: On my bike ride, I was looking at these little nooks,
Speaker 2: these like places that I still a song or the
Speaker 2: smell of rain and the sun coming out. Little things
Speaker 2: trigger these properties that I remember. And today I just
Speaker 2: rode my bike to see if those houses were for
Speaker 2: sale or it's just real specific little areas. This is
Speaker 2: a place I realistically could get a house, you know,
Speaker 2: that's the end.
Speaker 1: Absolutely, And it's also one of the most gorgeous states
Speaker 1: in the Union. It's really it's amazingly that picture you
Speaker 1: sent on Elise and I.
Speaker 3: Yes, so beautiful.
Speaker 2: That was from So I hiked up the M there's
Speaker 2: just a big cement letter M on the and I
Speaker 2: also figured out an interesting sociological experience, like it always
Speaker 2: seems like a long hike because I'm always looking at
Speaker 2: the top. But this time I hiked around the halfway point,
Speaker 2: or what I decided was the halfway point. I'm like,
Speaker 2: I'm more than halfway, and I just kept hike. I
Speaker 2: didn't ever look up, because you can see when you're
Speaker 2: approaching it, and all of a sudden it was there.
Speaker 2: It seemed like it took half the time, so That's
Speaker 2: what I'm going to do now. If I'm hiking, I
Speaker 2: do not look at the destination up top. That's what
Speaker 2: makes it take forever. Eyes down, eyes down, looking at
Speaker 2: your boots.
Speaker 1: Do you see any nature? Do you see any animals
Speaker 1: on a hike like that? This hike is more like
Speaker 1: of a grassy.
Speaker 2: Hillside. Yeah, it's a knoll, it's an all. There's a gunman,
Speaker 2: and no one knew about them until they watched this
Speaker 2: film and then I rolled this up.
Speaker 1: Her.
Speaker 3: Isn't there a book repository on this mountain anyway?
Speaker 2: At the very bottom there is, there's a book. It's
Speaker 2: the library, and you have to leave your books in
Speaker 2: the depository. But yeah, that's where I went after the hike.
Speaker 2: That's this whole This whole story's linking up perfectly. But
Speaker 2: on the hike, your damn right. And even in my
Speaker 2: dad's backyard there has been the deer have been its
Speaker 2: mating season, y'all. And these baby deer with the Bamby
Speaker 2: spots on them perfect like, are outside my window. You
Speaker 2: aren't on the Instagram, but I wake up and there's
Speaker 2: baby deer laying side by side right outside my window.
Speaker 2: They just I know they're there in the morning. I
Speaker 2: open the shades and they look up at me because
Speaker 2: dangerously they're very comfortable around here.
Speaker 3: Onop Sorry, dog's parking.
Speaker 2: That's quite all right. I love animals. But there has
Speaker 2: been some Bamby picturesque cartoon deer just in Oh and
Speaker 2: they yeah, on the hike today, there's deer.
Speaker 1: Have you ever had a Like, there's a lot of
Speaker 1: deer in Pelama, and especially where we lived because it's
Speaker 1: way outside of town, and my dad actually got they
Speaker 1: almost got in to well, they did kind of get
Speaker 1: into an accident because a deer jumped out in front
Speaker 1: of the car and he slammed on the brakes and
Speaker 1: my cousin hit her head and it was this crazy
Speaker 1: thing that like, you know, and he goes, if that's
Speaker 1: the choice you're making, make sure you don't hurt the
Speaker 1: people in your car.
Speaker 3: Hit the deer, yes, which I was like, Oh, that's
Speaker 3: a rough one.
Speaker 2: Oh that's what's happened to me. I've hit deer. Yeah.
Speaker 2: I can't even tell the rest of the story. It
Speaker 2: was awful. No, yes, do you do have I don't
Speaker 2: know why I brought this there. No, it's important. We're
Speaker 2: giving good information pet enjoy deer, but also if you
Speaker 2: see them jump in the road, you kill that deer
Speaker 2: because you got a loved one and you can't just
Speaker 2: pull a Karen's arm in front of me like a
Speaker 2: book bag, right. You got to save the people, and
Speaker 2: that it's people first. A lot of people care more
Speaker 2: about animals, so you're in or.
Speaker 1: The reaction is just it's this gorgeous, majestic animal, so
Speaker 1: slam on your brakes and then someone's going through the windshields.
Speaker 2: I borrowed my dad's car. I had Chosenman, which is
Speaker 2: three hours away, and my dad has a fancy new
Speaker 2: car and I'm paranoid to drive it. And the whole
Speaker 2: time I thought a deer was going to leap onto
Speaker 2: the hood because it's a very realistic concern. And in
Speaker 2: town here, there's deer all around town and they're getting
Speaker 2: hit all the time. I talked about the deer with
Speaker 2: the helmet and the deer that has her tongue out,
Speaker 2: and the other deer that has a leg that bends
Speaker 2: the wrong way. That's because there's just deer in town
Speaker 2: and they get hit by cars and then they move
Speaker 2: ahead and they have a weird leg and they start
Speaker 2: a family. And this is and I'm not kidd I'm talking.
Speaker 2: One of these baby deers is the leg the backwards
Speaker 2: leg deer.
Speaker 1: You know why, because it's not Los Angeles, where you
Speaker 1: have your body has to be perfect. It's Montana where
Speaker 1: people understand you've been through some shit. Yeah, maybe something's
Speaker 1: happening new, but you can still have a relationship.
Speaker 2: Yes, exactly. It's people are They're judge for what's on
Speaker 2: the inside. A lot of these deer in town really good,
Speaker 2: so beautiful. But yeah, I've seen a lot of animals,
Speaker 2: and there's bears. I'm sure I could go on a
Speaker 2: bike ride and see a brown bear or a little
Speaker 2: black bear. Careful, but brown bears also can be grizzlies.
Speaker 2: Let's keep that in mind, okay. And they'll attack you.
Speaker 2: And a moose. If you see a moose, I've seen
Speaker 2: mooses before. They'll dance on you, just aggressively. They'll come
Speaker 2: after you.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think most animals like that. Big will be like,
Speaker 1: get away from me. Yeah, in some attack mode manner.
Speaker 2: But as soon as we are done here, I'm going
Speaker 2: up to Flathead Lake, a beautiful lake. It's a mile deep.
Speaker 2: There's a Flatthead monster. A lot of people think it's
Speaker 2: a sturgeon. We were talking a little bit about the
Speaker 2: Loch Ness. Yes, even if it isn't a dragonlake that
Speaker 2: breaches with a tail, it's a fish that is so
Speaker 2: big that people have confused it for a monster. There
Speaker 2: is because it is such a deep lake that there
Speaker 2: are you know, a thousand pound fish in it.
Speaker 1: Yes, okay, And possibly because there's a theory and this
Speaker 1: is why I believe in the Loch Nest monster. That
Speaker 1: lakes that deep have connective tunnels.
Speaker 2: To each other.
Speaker 1: That inane to me because Blue Lake is where we
Speaker 1: used to go on vacation every summer, and it was
Speaker 1: up in Lake County, so it was like two hours
Speaker 1: away from Pedaloma.
Speaker 3: And we went there every year.
Speaker 1: And then when I moved to La I was staying
Speaker 1: in Margaret Chow's room in the house that she had
Speaker 1: with Greg Barrent.
Speaker 2: Again Yep.
Speaker 1: She had a book in her room called Mysterious California.
Speaker 1: So I was just reading it because I was trying
Speaker 1: to pass the time because she was on the road,
Speaker 1: and I read about they it was basically like county
Speaker 1: by county, they go through all the cryptids and all
Speaker 1: the weird stuff that is known for each area. And
Speaker 1: then it said Blue Lake, California, there's basically a loch
Speaker 1: Nest monster in Blue Lake. So it's so deep that
Speaker 1: they no one's been able to measure it. And in
Speaker 1: like the late eighteen hundreds, they were having a Fourth
Speaker 1: of July celebration down on one end it's called the Narrows,
Speaker 1: is the one end of the lake. And so there
Speaker 1: was a little I must have told you this or.
Speaker 2: The reflection of the fireworks, you could.
Speaker 1: See the fireworks were out on a little float, and
Speaker 1: so the whole town was gathered and it was probably
Speaker 1: five hundred people was gathered on that end of the
Speaker 1: lake and watching the float with all the fireworks on it.
Speaker 1: And in between the float and the shore, a monster
Speaker 1: came up out of the water, looked at the fireworks,
Speaker 1: looked at the entire town witnessed this animal at one time,
Speaker 1: and they said it basically looked like the Lochness monster, put.
Speaker 2: On a giant pair of sunglasses and said see you later.
Speaker 3: By losers.
Speaker 2: I I. And so it makes sense now that every
Speaker 2: time I've water skate on flathead leg, when I fall
Speaker 2: and that boat keeps going and you're alone for two
Speaker 2: to three minutes. As the boat turns around, I think
Speaker 2: the weird feeling I feel now that I know there's
Speaker 2: underground tunnels, Yes, I don't. Yeah, this is the time
Speaker 2: we could use Hank Green.
Speaker 4: I'm sure he knows a lot about the US total bullshit.
Speaker 2: But it is if it is. Yes, it's a giant sturgeon,
Speaker 2: a giant fish. But that's big. That that's what I
Speaker 2: was afraid of. A giant fish that's bigger than me. Yes,
Speaker 2: at least tasting my leg from the knee down.
Speaker 3: That's just like a little nibble. Wait, how big would
Speaker 3: you say? Like school bus?
Speaker 4: You know?
Speaker 2: Usually school Karen for real? A smaller bus? Oh?
Speaker 3: Small bus?
Speaker 4: Yeah, not like a standard right, but a fish a
Speaker 4: bus like a Volkswagen bus.
Speaker 2: Oh, I don't know. But it's shaped long like that's
Speaker 2: the thing. I know. I've seen blurry photos, and I'm
Speaker 2: not confusing that for lock ness photos there are.
Speaker 3: I'm going to hold on. What's it called.
Speaker 2: Flat the flathead like monster?
Speaker 3: Flathead lake monster. This will be worth it, Yes, it will.
Speaker 1: For me and anyone else that wants to join me
Speaker 1: over here on Google Flathead lake Monster.
Speaker 3: It's the fifth search items.
Speaker 2: Ooh, what are you saying?
Speaker 3: It looks like a big salamander.
Speaker 2: Okay, it's a fish. Giant flippers that could be easily
Speaker 2: confused for salamander like feet, right, oh right, those are flippers.
Speaker 1: Well, I'm And then it has the head of like
Speaker 1: it has a beak, a long beach yes. And then
Speaker 1: the back of it it has a fish tail, yes,
Speaker 1: almost like a mermaid. And then it has like flipper feet,
Speaker 1: almost like alligator feet.
Speaker 2: Would you say yes? And and that's an image I
Speaker 2: don't even know if you're looking at the same one.
Speaker 2: I grew up fearing, but that I am. I'm a
Speaker 2: grown man and I'm confronted by it every time I
Speaker 2: go on that lake. But We're still going to go
Speaker 2: out there, and I'm going to My friend has jet skis.
Speaker 2: They have a hydrofoil which is like a little surfboard
Speaker 2: on a fin that elevates you. So you get on
Speaker 2: it and you pump and you rise above the water
Speaker 2: like three feet and you kind of just We're going
Speaker 2: to do a lot of water sports tomorrow, and I'm
Speaker 2: going to try and do that water ski pyramid. We
Speaker 2: just need a lot of different lengths of rope and
Speaker 2: the ability to climb on each other while skiing.
Speaker 1: I mean, so you're going to need a platform and
Speaker 1: an elevated platform of some kind.
Speaker 2: I just need a group of solid skiers that can
Speaker 2: climb on shoulders while skiing, or kick off the skis
Speaker 2: and get up on someone else's haunches. I don't know.
Speaker 2: It's been a dream of mine forever.
Speaker 3: I think you can make it happen.
Speaker 1: I'm looking at a map that says one hundred and
Speaker 1: thirteen unusual sidings on Flathead Lake between eighteen eighty nine
Speaker 1: and twenty twenty, compiled by someone named Laney Hansel. Great job, Laney,
Speaker 1: because this is a very readable map. It is very
Speaker 1: attractive map. And basically the sightings I'm gonna send this
Speaker 1: to you. There are ces f's and then dates and times.
Speaker 1: So it's either a creature or a fish and both
Speaker 1: over ten feet long, oh for sure. And they have
Speaker 1: been sighted all over this lake.
Speaker 2: It is literally a mile deep, like that's very rare.
Speaker 2: It's not the biggest lake, but it is like, you know,
Speaker 2: a third the size of like Lake Tahoe. It's a
Speaker 2: very large lake and very very deep, and you know,
Speaker 2: there's shit you know there's tunnels, you know, there's fins,
Speaker 2: you know, there's flippers, you know, there's like, you know
Speaker 2: that horseshoe like mouth, yes, seahorse, I mean hors sea
Speaker 2: horse like mouth on a lizard like fish. But even
Speaker 2: if it is just a twenty foot fish, that scares me.
Speaker 1: Yes, Anything big and you're in the water and it's
Speaker 1: bigger than your hand is bad fucking news because you're
Speaker 1: at a disadvantage.
Speaker 3: You don't live in water. You don't know what's going on.
Speaker 1: So when we were up there one time, my cousin Stevie,
Speaker 1: who I was talking about before, He's like, come on,
Speaker 1: swim the lake. So he got in a rowboat and
Speaker 1: he made me swim from our end of the lake,
Speaker 1: which was the opposite end, down to the narrows. And
Speaker 1: halfway on that trip, which was I did it there
Speaker 1: and back, it was kind of cool. I think it was,
Speaker 1: like was it I mean, I'm sure it's a mile
Speaker 1: or two, it's not that big of a deal, but.
Speaker 2: It wast though that would be I would mean my snorkel.
Speaker 1: Yeah, But halfway through I got the weird feeling and
Speaker 1: I was just like, there's something swimming underneath me like
Speaker 1: it made me want to scream, but it just made
Speaker 1: me swim faster, and that I'm gonna send this to
Speaker 1: both of you.
Speaker 2: There's an Olympic length pool here and I've been going there.
Speaker 2: Thursday night is adult swim night, but I always thought
Speaker 2: be because I was fascinated by escape from Alcatraz and
Speaker 2: I think of Clin Eastwood swimming in the middle of
Speaker 2: the night from Alcatraz to to San Francisco.
Speaker 3: But just impossible.
Speaker 2: It's so difficult. It is one hundred and fifty laps
Speaker 2: in this pool. So I tried to. I got to a.
Speaker 3: Distance to Alcatraz, from Alcatraz to Land.
Speaker 2: I got thirty. I got thirty laps on it, and
Speaker 2: I was exhausted. You would have to stop and like,
Speaker 2: but I'm not accounting for you know how rough the
Speaker 2: water would be and the sharks cold. Yeah, how cold
Speaker 2: I would have to be in a wetsuit. Of course,
Speaker 2: I'm not going to do it well.
Speaker 1: And those guys that escape from Alcatraz who they've never found,
Speaker 1: they think there's a possibility they're all still alive or
Speaker 1: like some of them are still alive.
Speaker 2: And it's so interesting to me.
Speaker 1: I love it because at least two of them were brothers,
Speaker 1: if not all three, I can't remember, but I think
Speaker 1: definitely two. And they think they went to their own
Speaker 1: mother's funeral, like they think they're people who follow that story,
Speaker 1: who are like the reason they think the brothers are
Speaker 1: still alive is because they think there were three old
Speaker 1: men at the funeral and because they're Yeah, I love
Speaker 1: that story, but it would be if you've ever taken
Speaker 1: a ferry from San Francisco to Alcatraz or any have.
Speaker 2: You ever been?
Speaker 1: Yeah, so you know, like for people that haven't, that
Speaker 1: water and northern California ocean water is fucking freezing. It
Speaker 1: is so cold, and that's where all the sharks are.
Speaker 1: Like Stinton Beach, which is right above the Golden Gate
Speaker 1: Bridge and then Bay. Oh yeah, Stinton is huge for surfing,
Speaker 1: but it's it's there's a shark bite there like once
Speaker 1: a year. Maybe that's a guess obviously because my voice
Speaker 1: won't like this, but I think it's they're often.
Speaker 2: Actually shark bites down there under the Golden Gate breeze?
Speaker 2: Is it.
Speaker 3: The number goes as high number ship, your voice has to.
Speaker 2: Go up, even though you don't even want to hear
Speaker 2: me suggest there's a dozen bites a year. Dogs will
Speaker 2: be circling around.
Speaker 3: The neighborhood my ear drums.
Speaker 1: You know, I have to say, and this is I'm
Speaker 1: going to right now say a completely unfounded and controversial
Speaker 1: surfing opinion.
Speaker 3: Uh, I think.
Speaker 1: Nor Cow surfers are cooler and more hardcore because it
Speaker 1: is so hard to even get in the ocean.
Speaker 2: Of course they are. Yeah, I had a reunion a
Speaker 2: year ago. We're talking about doing it again up in
Speaker 2: the Puget Sound and the water in Washington. Of course
Speaker 2: we had wet suits and I didn't have a hoodie
Speaker 2: and booties and gloves and everything. But I don't know
Speaker 2: what I'm doing really surfing. But my friend is very good.
Speaker 2: He lives outside Seattle, and the water it looked like
Speaker 2: it was boiling, and that two waves would just be
Speaker 2: crashing into each other, creating a third wave. And there
Speaker 2: was people like surfing and transferring from one way to
Speaker 2: another over this this transfer of waves. It was chaos.
Speaker 2: And also they were all way more hardcore and they
Speaker 2: were way less like territorial. They probably were like, you
Speaker 2: guys aren't from California, right, And I'm like, no, Montana.
Speaker 2: And then they were nice. Yeah, but I don't know.
Speaker 2: I've been turned off by serving because of the territorial vibe,
Speaker 2: which is can learn anywhere.
Speaker 1: There's a little bit to me unless you are a Hawaiian,
Speaker 1: the idea of being territorial. When it's like are you
Speaker 1: getting this from point break? Like are you just doing
Speaker 1: this because you think you're supposed to do it? Like
Speaker 1: are you literally a dog town and Z boy? I
Speaker 1: don't think so. I think you're just a dude.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, if you're getting it from point rank, then
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, but you're being a bit of a Barney Hally,
Speaker 2: you're a Barney turtle.
Speaker 1: Whereas I think in Norkel, no one has to be
Speaker 1: territorial because if you don't belong there, you'll probably die
Speaker 1: in the undertow. Like truly, it's so unsafe out there.
Speaker 1: It's am it's impressive.
Speaker 2: In Hawaii, I was, I had been drinking and I
Speaker 2: was just like body surfing and this guy came out
Speaker 2: of nowhere, swam out to the water and put a
Speaker 2: glow stick around my neck and then and I'm like thanks,
Speaker 2: and he just waved and then swam back at the
Speaker 2: speed of a motor boat because he just He was like,
Speaker 2: that guy might drown, so I'm going to put I'll
Speaker 2: never forget to see a lifeguard. He never said anything.
Speaker 2: He was a civilian.
Speaker 1: Bro was he just partying bro and Want And he
Speaker 1: came and put a rave glowstick, snapped it around my
Speaker 1: neck like a necklace, and I was like, what a
Speaker 1: thoughtful thing to do. Yeah, so that they can find
Speaker 1: you if you go under and are just kind of
Speaker 1: laying at the bottom.
Speaker 2: Yeah. But you know, I'm a bit of a water man.
Speaker 2: I don't like to brag, but I know I'm way in.
Speaker 2: I know my way underwater where you can't breathe.
Speaker 3: I know how to get under there, I know and
Speaker 3: flail around. Yeah, I come back home.
Speaker 2: I'm comfortable down where your lungs don't work well.
Speaker 1: Also, because I always heard that if two waves are
Speaker 1: crashing into each other, that is an undertoe spot. That
Speaker 1: is like how you can actually recognize where to not
Speaker 1: be swimming.
Speaker 2: Yes, and this time last year when I was I
Speaker 2: was getting pulled out and I just had to make
Speaker 2: sure I knew where we were on the beach and
Speaker 2: had to maintain that position. But it was very scary. Yes,
Speaker 2: but when you're wearing a wet suit, you are kind
Speaker 2: of floating. So it wasn't that that.
Speaker 3: Helps you, you know.
Speaker 1: Did I tell you about the story of me and
Speaker 1: Adrian getting almost pulled under in an undertoe And we
Speaker 1: had been watching the day before because it was in
Speaker 1: that spot and quiet on the beach in Holloway, and
Speaker 1: the day before we watched a guy have to get
Speaker 1: skewed by actual lifeguards and we were like, I don't embarrassing,
Speaker 1: it's crazy, and then he must be from London or something,
Speaker 1: and it was that kind of thing where it looked okay,
Speaker 1: but there were they had put out flags of like
Speaker 1: swim at your own risk whatever. Yeah, And so then
Speaker 1: the next day we're in the same spot and we
Speaker 1: go out to do our standing in the water gossiping
Speaker 1: move and that's our routine and it's usually very like
Speaker 1: once you get past the main break, you're fine because
Speaker 1: you're just then you're out and you're just kind of
Speaker 1: like floating and bobbing and it's great. Well it wasn't great,
Speaker 1: and so Adrian and I were kind of like, eh,
Speaker 1: this waves are a little it's a little much for me.
Speaker 1: I don't want to be out here, so like I'm
Speaker 1: not going to do this. So we both said that,
Speaker 1: and so we both went in at the same time
Speaker 1: and we were trying to like walk like our feet
Speaker 1: were on the sand, so we were walking, but the
Speaker 1: water was like, you know, past our waist, and we couldn't.
Speaker 3: Get out like we could.
Speaker 1: The water kept pulling us away and further down the beach.
Speaker 2: To the fish watching below at your ankles. You were
Speaker 2: moonwalking out to the middle of the ocean. Yes, exactly.
Speaker 1: We were moonwalking kind of backwards and then out, and
Speaker 1: so we weren't talking to each other.
Speaker 3: She was a little bit ahead of me and she
Speaker 3: was like, uh, and it was almost.
Speaker 1: Like we were being pulled by a big invisible rubber
Speaker 1: band back out into the ocean. And I was doing
Speaker 1: it too, where I was like the thought went through
Speaker 1: my head where I'm like, oh, this isn't funny anymore.
Speaker 2: Now we're the guy.
Speaker 1: We're the guy from yesterday. And Adrian turned around goes,
Speaker 1: what the fuck? And then I got scared because we
Speaker 1: weren't acknowledging it, and then when she acknowledged it, it
Speaker 1: was like holy shit. But we made our way out
Speaker 1: and when we got out, I was like we were
Speaker 1: all the way down the beach and and I we
Speaker 1: had to walk back. And normally I would not walk
Speaker 1: down a beach in a bathing suit. I would be
Speaker 1: too I'm from the eighties. I would be too ashamed
Speaker 1: of my body. I literally was like, fuck this, I
Speaker 1: am walking all the way back. I don't give a shit.
Speaker 1: And we were like it was like we were mad
Speaker 1: at the ocean. We like walked away. We left our
Speaker 1: friend Janet there and I found out afterwards because I
Speaker 1: was like, that could have been so embarrassing. And Adrian goes, oh, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: there's some lifeguards that came down and watched us to
Speaker 1: make sure.
Speaker 3: We could get out.
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh no, I didn't see the lifeguards, but
Speaker 1: apparently we got like they spotted us until they saw
Speaker 1: that we got free.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not yet. They are watching then. Not where
Speaker 2: we were up in the Puget Sound, there was no.
Speaker 3: Where people were surfing the undertoe.
Speaker 2: That is the and you try not to panic, and
Speaker 2: you try and stay calm, but I'm a panicker and
Speaker 2: I'm that's why I'm so scared of surfing. And like
Speaker 2: you said, when we got out of the water, you
Speaker 2: think you're in one place waiting for waves. Women got out.
Speaker 2: We were half a mile from where our pile of
Speaker 2: clothes were on the beach, Like, yes, it's unbelievable how
Speaker 2: far we traveled. It you don't even so.
Speaker 1: Fucking powerful, and it's really scary once you because I'm
Speaker 1: always like, yeah, I'm from northern California, I understand how
Speaker 1: powerful the ocean is. But in Hawaii it's usually, especially
Speaker 1: at this beach, it's usually so low key that it
Speaker 1: seemed like, oh, these are just little waves. That's why
Speaker 1: we were laughing at the guy the day before because
Speaker 1: it's like, oh, could you knock it out of the ocean,
Speaker 1: And then it was like, holy shit, this is like
Speaker 1: serious business that you don't mess around with that.
Speaker 2: And that's not even bringing up the fact like like
Speaker 2: April Richardsonois used to talk about they're being glowing the
Speaker 2: dark dinosaur fish with unicorn horns and all these like
Speaker 2: they're just space aliens in the water yeat So the
Speaker 2: fact that you can just standard.
Speaker 1: Drown, you can standard drown, but you can also get
Speaker 1: eaten by basically an old dinosaur that has gotten so
Speaker 1: good at surviving that it's been around for millions of
Speaker 1: years and it just will it just you are like
Speaker 1: a trader Joe's app like sitting in the water, your
Speaker 1: big fat white body, and they're just like, do I
Speaker 1: want that cream cheese stuffed America?
Speaker 2: Let's see.
Speaker 1: Like they're just like they're choosing not to kill you
Speaker 1: every time you're in the ocean.
Speaker 2: Oh, look at this pimiento olive with legs.
Speaker 4: Yummy, They're delicious.
Speaker 1: This will start me off at the four o'clock hour.
Speaker 1: That's a thing where like when the sun starts to
Speaker 1: go down, I'm like everyone else to get out because
Speaker 1: I'm positive that's when everyone's gonna get eaten by a shark.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, be careful in the water out there, everybody, guys,
Speaker 2: just please be careful land water, even if it's your
Speaker 2: river or a lake or an any cub.
Speaker 3: Cryptids are everywhere, including your.
Speaker 2: Legs too much. Yeah, your kids in the house. When
Speaker 2: you have taken a bath, water is afraid. Be lightly afraid.
Speaker 1: Always of all water, even a water water and all animals.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and even a warm bowl of soup. Don't lane forward, no, no, no, no,
Speaker 2: it might be your last meal. You can drown in
Speaker 2: two inches of soup. But remember the old saying always
Speaker 2: remember you can drown in two inches, just two inches
Speaker 2: of soup. It's just on a camel's can.
Speaker 1: A disclaimer, especially if it's any kind of a showder.
Speaker 3: You're screwed. You're not getting out of that.
Speaker 2: Not only you're drowning, there's a piece of potato lodged
Speaker 2: in there. Oh you're drowning and choking.
Speaker 3: You're choking, you're drowning. Conky ch chambles kunky Okay, yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I had to put that in there. Well,
Speaker 2: this was fun. We don't need we did it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we never do. We never have needed them. But
Speaker 3: we allow them.
Speaker 2: We we allow them. We do.
