23
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:25,160
Speaker 1: would hope so, and couldn't say for sure if it

24
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:26,000
Speaker 1: was active or not.

25
00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:29,240

Speaker 2: a bookshelf or something.

27
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:33,679
Speaker 1: Apparently the head teacher thanked him for his show and

28
00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:36,800
Speaker 1: tell and quickly took the grenade while the principal began

29
00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:38,120

Speaker 1: behind a substantial tree.

36
00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:55,920
Speaker 2: Do you think she was so worried about tripping that

37
00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:56,440
Speaker 2: whole walk?

38
00:01:56,880 --> 00:02:03,080
Speaker 1: Yeah? The bomb disposal experts were called to the scene.

39
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:05,400

40
00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:10,880

41
00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:13,280

44
00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:27,239
Speaker 1: Arizona that all across America national parks are struggling.

45
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:28,480
Speaker 2: I know it's bad.

46
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:31,400
Speaker 1: You mean, like business wise, money wise.

47
00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:33,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, they get funding is getting cut.

48
00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:37,000
Speaker 1: Oh geez. Apparently it's got to the point where they're

49
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:41,480
Speaker 1: saying desperate times call for desperate measures. So cue the

50
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:48,400
Speaker 1: twerking video. I say that because Arizona's Petrified Forest National

51
00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:52,160
Speaker 1: Park is fundraising now by showing us old torking videos

52
00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:56,679
Speaker 1: of Megan the Stallion. The clips are being shared on TikTok,

53
00:02:56,880 --> 00:03:00,560
Speaker 1: hoping to go viral. So after you watch the twerk footage,

54
00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:04,240
Speaker 1: they advertise an annual park pass for eighty bucks. They

55
00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:04,960
Speaker 1: could for them.

56
00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:07,760
Speaker 2: I follow a couple of park accounts and they get

57
00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:09,800
Speaker 2: pretty creative on the Dude, that's what I were to say.

58
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:13,840
Speaker 1: It was the park rangers working. Yeah, it's Megan thee Stallion,

59
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:18,880
Speaker 1: and it's got some risque innuendo stuff like Petrified Forest

60
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:22,399
Speaker 1: is here to rock your world. Yeah, that's so funny though,

61
00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:26,160
Speaker 1: and yes, the wood is still hard after two hundred

62
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:26,960
Speaker 1: million years.

63
00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:30,520
Speaker 2: Funny and educational. I get behind it.

64
00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:32,800
Speaker 1: They go on to say the wood is so rock

65
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:37,320
Speaker 1: solid it's basically nature's viagra. Right now, let me get

66
00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:37,680
Speaker 1: the joke.

67
00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:38,960
Speaker 2: That one wasn't quite as funny.

68
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:41,520
Speaker 1: It's gone too far, growing out too much. He doesn't

69
00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:45,600
Speaker 1: love a good firm piece of wood joke. Yeah them. Anyways,

70
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:48,600
Speaker 1: parks are desperate and we'll see if this torking strategy

71
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:51,040
Speaker 1: actually pays off. I mean it is Arizona. They could say,

72
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:52,520
Speaker 1: like it's getting hot out here.

73
00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:55,600

Speaker 1: we were promised in movies like Back to the Future. Yeah,

95
00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:55,480
Speaker 1: it's got a hefty price tag with it, Yeah, and

96
00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:56,920
Speaker 1: a death trap attached to it.

97
00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:57,719
Speaker 3: Yeah.

98
00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:01,560
Speaker 1: The company in Slovakia says it'll cost a very reasonable

99
00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:07,000
Speaker 1: eight hundred thousand dollars day, up to a million if

100
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:11,080
Speaker 1: you add upgrades. Though. The seat warmersay they'll hit this

101
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:14,000
Speaker 1: guy in early twenty twenty six, at least over in Europe,

102
00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:15,960

103
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:18,000
Speaker 1: the US coming this fall.

104
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:19,080
Speaker 2: I'm sure that'll work out.

105
00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:24,240
Speaker 1: This next laser stories out of the commencement tenth. If

106
00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:26,960
Speaker 1: your kids graduating this month with one of these degrees,

107
00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:29,920
Speaker 1: pat them on the back and tell them it's important work,

108
00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:32,800
Speaker 1: then sprint back home and clear out the office because

109
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:36,080
Speaker 1: they could be moving back in. So I say that

110
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:38,599
Speaker 1: because a popular publication just posted a list of the

111
00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:42,320
Speaker 1: top ten college degrees that earned the least amount of

112
00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:43,720
Speaker 1: money straight out of school.

113
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:46,279
Speaker 2: Oh, it's going to be depressing for so many years,

114
00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:48,160
Speaker 2: a lot of degrees. Yeah.

115
00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:51,440
Speaker 1: The median income for all the jobs listed is between

116
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:54,440
Speaker 1: forty and forty two thousand dollars a year. Okay, so

117
00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:57,760
Speaker 1: number five. Early childhood education.

118
00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:01,400
Speaker 3: So important though, Yeah, you're a baby teacher.

119
00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:08,520
Speaker 1: Like preschool teachers or nannies. Maybe. Number four anthropology the

120
00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:14,320
Speaker 1: study of anthros. Don't know whatever it is, it does

121
00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:18,440
Speaker 1: not pay a lot of money. Number three performing arts

122
00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:23,200
Speaker 1: stud theater work, singers, stage hands, media.

123
00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:25,320
Speaker 2: Oh, but there was no like they didn't think they

124
00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:26,880
Speaker 2: were going to make a lot of money out of college.

125
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:30,920
Speaker 1: You know, you're in the world. Yeah, you know what's happening.

126
00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 1: Number two general social sciences jobs like youth counselor or

127
00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:38,200
Speaker 1: teacher's aid. And finally, the number one job that will

128
00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:40,640
Speaker 1: make you the least amount of money straight out of

129
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:47,760
Speaker 1: college is if you studied a foreign language, like majoring

130
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:49,800
Speaker 1: in French and only French.

131
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:51,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, you got to go back for like a teaching

132
00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:53,240
Speaker 2: degree or business.

133
00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:57,400
Speaker 1: You're not doing anything. Foreign language is the lowest paid

134
00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:01,480
Speaker 1: major at forty thousand dollars Google translate. I don't need.

135
00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:04,599
Speaker 2: Anything, but you gotta go encourage that kid to go

136
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:06,000
Speaker 2: live in that country.

137
00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:10,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, there you go. Claus isn't French the language of love?

138
00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:14,360
Speaker 1: That's what this guy majored in. And look at that

139
00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:17,920
Speaker 1: who says you don't use your major once you graduate college.

140
00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:20,600
Speaker 1: There you go, he's using it, right, now, and that

141
00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:22,720
Speaker 1: means Laser Stories has come to an end for the day.

142
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:25,200
Speaker 1: We'll do it again at the same time on Friday,
