44
00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:05,160

45
00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:07,239
Speaker 1: time of the year, it's like it's weird once you

46
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:09,480
Speaker 1: start working, like when you're out of academia or your

47
00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:11,960
Speaker 1: schedule is sort of tied to the like the seasons,

48
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:15,280
Speaker 1: Like this is like still that one sort of stretch

49
00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:16,920
Speaker 1: of the year that I think, I feel like we

50
00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:19,440
Speaker 1: can kind of be like, oh, relax and to those

51
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,120

Speaker 1: not look like I will not look at any microphone

66
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:13,320
Speaker 1: for at least seven days. My energy at this point

67
00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:17,360
Speaker 1: in the year is always Richie Tannenbaum, Like when he

68
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:20,240
Speaker 1: has one of his shoes, No, when he like has

69
00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:23,560
Speaker 1: one of his shoes off during the tennis match, it's

70
00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:26,560
Speaker 1: just like hitting it underhanded and just getting it like

71
00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:29,920
Speaker 1: slammed back at him and they're like an inexplicable and

72
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:32,359
Speaker 1: he starts crying. I think at some point, yeah, yeah,

73
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:35,039
Speaker 1: oh that happens there. We have good editors, but that

74
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:40,120
Speaker 1: happens frequently throughout that episode Behind the Curtain. Couldn't come soon,

75
00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:42,719
Speaker 1: It couldn't come sooner or I don't know, I see,

76
00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:44,800
Speaker 1: I don't even know what that phrases. But the Royal

77
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:47,359
Speaker 1: tannonbamb is a Christmas movie. Isn't there some Christmas action

78
00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:49,880
Speaker 1: in that movie or Christmas vibes? But I don't remember

79
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:54,239
Speaker 1: there being a Christmas all that Mark Mothersbam music could

80
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:57,000
Speaker 1: be standing Christmas music. It always uses jingle bells, you

81
00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:59,840
Speaker 1: know what I mean, just like the instrument, not the tune. Yeah,

82
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:02,800
Speaker 1: you know, I remember it's so weird. I remember like

83
00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:05,400
Speaker 1: when Life Aquatic came out, I was so into it

84
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:07,800
Speaker 1: at the end of the year that, like the sus

85
00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:11,000
Speaker 1: George like David Bowie covers from that album, I was like,

86
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:13,440
Speaker 1: this is Chris. Like whenever I hear it, I'm like, oh,

87
00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:17,159
Speaker 1: this is Christmas music. It's so weird. How contextually Sometimes

88
00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:18,920
Speaker 1: it's just like, yeah, I when I hear Rebel Rebel

89
00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:23,200
Speaker 1: in Portuguese Chris, I was channeling my Blair Sacchi because

90
00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:27,000
Speaker 1: at that point I was like it. He had done

91
00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:30,120
Speaker 1: a couple of movies with Owen Wilson and then I

92
00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:31,839
Speaker 1: don't know if that was this first one, but that

93
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:34,039
Speaker 1: was when I was like, this guy can't make a

94
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:36,800
Speaker 1: movie unless he writes it with Owen Wilson. That was

95
00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:38,800
Speaker 1: one of his first that he didn't and so I

96
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:41,320
Speaker 1: was out on it right away. I had a boss

97
00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:43,520
Speaker 1: that had Rebel Rebel as his ring tone, you know,

98
00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:45,400
Speaker 1: like a look at me kind of ring tone that

99
00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:47,920
Speaker 1: was always on full blast, like in an open office,

100
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:49,840
Speaker 1: and so, you know, I was trying to make conversation.

101
00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:51,440
Speaker 1: I was like, hey, so you're a big music fan.

102
00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:54,440
Speaker 1: I guess now, I don't really listen to music. Cool, good,

103
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:58,480
Speaker 1: good time. Shut that right, I don't really listen to music.

104
00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:00,599
Speaker 1: Wait is that a song that comes out of my

105
00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:02,720
Speaker 1: phone when people call me? I just oh no, man,

106
00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:04,720
Speaker 1: I went to U N L V. Man. That's why

107
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:07,040
Speaker 1: I have this. It was a weird flex called back

108
00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:09,880
Speaker 1: to a ridiculous history. Wait, what's so? Was the ring

109
00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:14,360
Speaker 1: tone just that guitar lick that I'm on a loop?

110
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:17,159
Speaker 1: And it was just the loudest thing. And again open office.

111
00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:20,320
Speaker 1: Everyone's just like, oh my god, I'm not a kid.

112
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 1: They're like, oh man, I'm a fan of rebels. He's

113
00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:27,440
Speaker 1: a ring tone rebel. Who even has a ring tone anymore?

114
00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:30,240
Speaker 1: You know? It's just yeah, which is sad. He found

115
00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 1: silent like a human, you know, yeah, like or just

116
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:35,440
Speaker 1: little buzzing or at this point even the buzzing. I

117
00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:38,000
Speaker 1: just stopped because I was getting phantom buzzings in my leg,

118
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:40,720
Speaker 1: like you know, like when you're like, it's my ship going. Yeah,

119
00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:43,279
Speaker 1: it's it's all bad. All right, Well, we are going

120
00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:45,480
Speaker 1: to do a half as Christmas themed episode. We don't

121
00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:48,159
Speaker 1: really have news to talk about today. What do you

122
00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:50,000
Speaker 1: want to talk about? You want to talk about Marjorie

123
00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:53,520
Speaker 1: Taylor Green and Lauren Bobert fighting? Yeah? What what? I

124
00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:58,800
Speaker 1: wonder what Elon Musk did this time? Who cares? Grow up? Okay, listener,

125
00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:03,280
Speaker 1: grow fired. We don't care what he did anymore. So

126
00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:05,480
Speaker 1: instead of that and all, we are going to get

127
00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:06,919
Speaker 1: to know you a little bit better in a moment,

128
00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:10,480
Speaker 1: We're also gonna just talk about Christmas gifts, our favorite

129
00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:12,920
Speaker 1: Christmas gifts of all time or the for me, the

130
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:16,320
Speaker 1: one that got away. Yeah, oh you didn't get that. No, dude,

131
00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:19,520
Speaker 1: I'm fucked up about this. That that is. I thought

132
00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:22,640
Speaker 1: my favorite Christmas gifts were homo erotic, and then I

133
00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:30,520
Speaker 1: looked at your favorite Christmas grift, Like the commercial is like, yeah, Gacy,

134
00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:35,680
Speaker 1: a greased up man with like a master blaster from

135
00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:40,400
Speaker 1: mad Max body just like standing there was a mask

136
00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:45,240
Speaker 1: and a gun just for unders. Yeah you need this,

137
00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:48,680
Speaker 1: little boy, And I'm like, and put it on your

138
00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:51,440
Speaker 1: underwear too. Tidy Whitey's. You know remember that when that

139
00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:53,360
Speaker 1: was the thing. G I Joe Tidy Whitey's and he

140
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:57,520
Speaker 1: meant that was a weird still a thing with the

141
00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:01,880
Speaker 1: with the Little Boys that we've got some Marvel guys,

142
00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:06,320
Speaker 1: incredible Hulk. I'm gonna just talk about why I think

143
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:10,080
Speaker 1: Christmas movies need to be horn here, just in general.

144
00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:12,760
Speaker 1: I think we are suffering from a lack of horn

145
00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:17,720
Speaker 1: nous in our Christmas movies. And we're gonna then dig

146
00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:21,320
Speaker 1: into The Old Man from Home Alone. So we asked

147
00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:24,680
Speaker 1: our writer j m all right, man, it's schools out

148
00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:28,720
Speaker 1: for for the winter, put a movie on and uh,

149
00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:31,680
Speaker 1: just let us know, let us know what you're thinking.

150
00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:35,120
Speaker 1: And he has a pretty convincing theory that the Old

151
00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:40,000
Speaker 1: Man from Home Alone is actually a serial killer. So

152
00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:42,040
Speaker 1: I think he's the Fisherman from I Know what you

153
00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:46,880
Speaker 1: did last summer. That's an extended universe. That would make

154
00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:48,960
Speaker 1: a lot of sense. Actually, that makes all the sen

155
00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:53,839
Speaker 1: that would explain everything. To quote my favorite viral video

156
00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:56,520
Speaker 1: from Christmas work Key for Sutherland is told he's a

157
00:08:56,559 --> 00:09:00,080
Speaker 1: pirate and then says that would explain everything in and

158
00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:05,120
Speaker 1: turns and dives into a Christmas tree. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

159
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:08,000
Speaker 1: The Old Man, for those you don't remember, that was

160
00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:10,240
Speaker 1: like the lonely old guy. He was so afraid of

161
00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:12,040
Speaker 1: and then it's kind of like the d s X

162
00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:16,719
Speaker 1: smashing a moment. Yeah, when he shows us snow shovel right, yeah,

163
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:20,680
Speaker 1: the snow shovel killer. All right, all that plenty more.

164
00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:23,319
Speaker 1: But first, No, we do like to ask our guests,

165
00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:28,280
Speaker 1: what is something from your search history that's revealing about

166
00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:31,360
Speaker 1: who you are? So I just looked at this before

167
00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:33,800
Speaker 1: we hopped on. I had totally forgotten that this was

168
00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:35,520
Speaker 1: the last thing in my search history, as you do

169
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:37,280
Speaker 1: with search histories. We you know, in our line of

170
00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:39,640
Speaker 1: work we search for a lot of weird ship but

171
00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:43,120
Speaker 1: the most recent thing is the Ship of Theseus, which

172
00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:47,280
Speaker 1: is a thought experiment um that sort of posits whether

173
00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:52,840
Speaker 1: an object made of completely unoriginal components ak like replacement parts,

174
00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:56,920
Speaker 1: is in fact still the original object. So I don't know,

175
00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:59,160
Speaker 1: I you know, it's sort of like a Shortinger's Cat

176
00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,240
Speaker 1: kind of situation. I'm not quite sure what the answer is,

177
00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:04,599
Speaker 1: but it's fun to think about, Yeah, why did this

178
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:07,800
Speaker 1: pop up? Or what what? What? What? What inspired the search?

179
00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:10,320
Speaker 1: We were actually Ben and Matt and Night who co

180
00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:12,640
Speaker 1: host something that once you know, we're doing an interview

181
00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:16,640
Speaker 1: with our friend Alex Williams for his podcast ephemeral about

182
00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:19,079
Speaker 1: the ephemeral nature of podcasts, and so we were just

183
00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:24,000
Speaker 1: kind of talking about if something exists only in digital form,

184
00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:27,120
Speaker 1: is it really a thing, especially like a tree falls

185
00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:29,600
Speaker 1: in the forest kind of question, like is it really

186
00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:32,040
Speaker 1: something you can wrap your arms around? Does it exist

187
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:36,280
Speaker 1: in perpetuity? You know, knowing the infrastructure, you know, and like, uh,

188
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:40,160
Speaker 1: you know, societal collapse, doomsday times, could you know, literally

189
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:46,040
Speaker 1: render us podcast lists? Right? And since Alex's show is

190
00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:48,200
Speaker 1: is a relatively limited series and it is all about

191
00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:51,560
Speaker 1: ephemeral kind of objects, we recommended that he pressed all

192
00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:54,839
Speaker 1: of his episodes onto wax cylinders and keep them in

193
00:10:54,880 --> 00:10:57,880
Speaker 1: a vault, you know, for when this inevitable moment our

194
00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:00,400
Speaker 1: history does come so people can enjoy it, you know,

195
00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:02,800
Speaker 1: parsing out parts from dumpsters so they can make a

196
00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:06,320
Speaker 1: hand crank victrola and listen to Alex's podcast. And you

197
00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:08,640
Speaker 1: said you said an old school cylinder, right, not an

198
00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:12,000
Speaker 1: old I mean, you know, if vinyl would work cylinder,

199
00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:15,960
Speaker 1: maybe magnetic tape that does degrade. It's possible because you know,

200
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:17,920
Speaker 1: like there's so many you can like vinyl cutters are

201
00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:20,720
Speaker 1: somewhat affordable. There there are and there's even like this

202
00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:24,200
Speaker 1: company called Teenage Engineering. Speaking of nerdy music ship, we

203
00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:26,640
Speaker 1: were talking about off air that actually makes a tiny

204
00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:29,800
Speaker 1: little vinyl cutter that can cut like kind of low

205
00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:32,360
Speaker 1: five violando these tiny little discs, and then you can

206
00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:34,680
Speaker 1: use it to sample and make you know, low five

207
00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:37,640
Speaker 1: beats for to study to. Alright, so Jack, we need

208
00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:40,360
Speaker 1: to create we need to create the like library of

209
00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:46,800
Speaker 1: Alexandria podcast on vinyl, every podcast episode ever can. And

210
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:48,640
Speaker 1: then the question became if if it has to be

211
00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:50,960
Speaker 1: pressed or you know, put on physical media, then there

212
00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:53,560
Speaker 1: becomes a hierarchy of which ones are worthy of this

213
00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:56,000
Speaker 1: treatment because there's just too many out there. So is

214
00:11:56,040 --> 00:12:00,000
Speaker 1: it about downloads? Is it about filling certain content categor

215
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:02,880
Speaker 1: gorries and having like a you know, a nice full

216
00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:06,559
Speaker 1: kind of representation of like what podcasts were or are.

217
00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:11,320
Speaker 1: It'll be who sold the most Casper mattresses that will

218
00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:15,800
Speaker 1: decide entry into the into the Hall of Fame. But

219
00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:18,719
Speaker 1: just if anybody doesn't know the thought experiment, it's like

220
00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:23,000
Speaker 1: a ship where over a number of years, like they

221
00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:27,160
Speaker 1: keep replacing broken parts to the point that every single

222
00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:30,880
Speaker 1: piece of the ship is a replacement part. And the

223
00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:35,360
Speaker 1: question is is it still the same ship, and something

224
00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:40,599
Speaker 1: similar happens to our bodies, where we're turning over cells

225
00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:45,360
Speaker 1: like many of ourselves, like on a near daily basis.

226
00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:50,760
Speaker 1: And so you're, you know, almost nine of you is

227
00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:55,839
Speaker 1: completely different in any structural form from the thing that

228
00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:59,160
Speaker 1: you were, you know, five ten years ago. Are you

229
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:02,280
Speaker 1: the same person? It came up pretty heavily and Wanda

230
00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:05,120
Speaker 1: vision um in terms of I think, what's his name?

231
00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:08,960
Speaker 1: What's the red faced robot guy? Vision? Yeah, because you

232
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:10,880
Speaker 1: know there's like an evil version of him or whatever.

233
00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:12,840
Speaker 1: And then the ship of theseus question comes up as

234
00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:16,679
Speaker 1: to whether he is you know himself or whatever because

235
00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:20,360
Speaker 1: he's been rebuilt completely from scratch. Yeah, damn, I'm not

236
00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:23,559
Speaker 1: even high. I was really thinking about the can you

237
00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:26,440
Speaker 1: feel like? I think? I think they it's yeah, you

238
00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:31,960
Speaker 1: are the same person, and use yeah philosophical I like

239
00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:34,760
Speaker 1: the deeper philosophical implications, but I wish I could also

240
00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:37,040
Speaker 1: go up to like a credit Buro and be like,

241
00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:41,439
Speaker 1: that actually is not me. My cells are different from

242
00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:45,600
Speaker 1: that person. With those, I'm a different person. Score literally Yeah, alright,

243
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:48,679
Speaker 1: what is something you think is overrated? I think lying

244
00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:51,720
Speaker 1: to kids about a weird overweight bear demand that breaks

245
00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:53,840
Speaker 1: into your house and gives you nice things if you

246
00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:58,480
Speaker 1: behave yourself, and undesirable things if you're a bad child

247
00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:00,520
Speaker 1: is overrated. I think it's, like we talked about it,

248
00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:01,760
Speaker 1: a lot of stuff that wants you to know about

249
00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:04,160
Speaker 1: being kind of the original conspiracy that sort of teaches

250
00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:08,480
Speaker 1: kids and then inevitably adults, not to believe the lines

251
00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:10,520
Speaker 1: that they're fed, you know, throughout their life. And I

252
00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:13,560
Speaker 1: think it's sort of counterproductive to do this. I think

253
00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:15,960
Speaker 1: maybe kids are a little smarter these days, the Internet

254
00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:18,440
Speaker 1: being what it is, kids probably figured out a little

255
00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:20,600
Speaker 1: earlier than they used to. But I still think it's

256
00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:23,680
Speaker 1: a weird thing to perpetuate, you know, a a tradition

257
00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:28,560
Speaker 1: based entirely on a lie. Yeah, it's like, you know,

258
00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:31,680
Speaker 1: if the first our first brush up with the Panopticon,

259
00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:34,720
Speaker 1: it's the all seeing eye of Santa to be like,

260
00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:39,800
Speaker 1: tecause you to either accept it or fear it and

261
00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:42,440
Speaker 1: and not trust it, you know. And I remember just

262
00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:45,600
Speaker 1: getting so angry. But I had a very quick evolution

263
00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:48,560
Speaker 1: with Santa, because again I was so like one track

264
00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:50,760
Speaker 1: mind about like you said, if I was nice, I

265
00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:52,520
Speaker 1: get this, and I didn't get them, Like then this

266
00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:56,480
Speaker 1: motherfucker doesn't exist, and they try and I was like, no,

267
00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:59,200
Speaker 1: I'm off this. Listen, How how come Santa makes all

268
00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:01,000
Speaker 1: this stuff that I do? You target? You know, I

269
00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:04,760
Speaker 1: understand that either exactly exactly. It's not like we're getting

270
00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:08,160
Speaker 1: rocking horses and handmade like you know, wooden toys. Like

271
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:12,360
Speaker 1: it's all commercially produced. Ship. It falls apart pretty quickly.

272
00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:16,040
Speaker 1: Do you have the scars of living under the rule

273
00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:19,120
Speaker 1: of Santa's all seeing? I you know, I just remember

274
00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:21,600
Speaker 1: finding like I got a joke coo. Remember Joe Cool.

275
00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:25,480
Speaker 1: He was like Snoopy, like the cool guy version of Snoopy. Well,

276
00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:28,360
Speaker 1: I found it was also, yeah, exactly, I found this

277
00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:30,920
Speaker 1: like skateboard, this Joe Cool skateboard in my parents closet.

278
00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:32,520
Speaker 1: You know, I think I think everyone has that story.

279
00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:34,400
Speaker 1: But yeah, and then I was just like I didn't.

280
00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:36,680
Speaker 1: I don't think I I didn't really call them on it.

281
00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:38,440
Speaker 1: I just sort of let it go for a couple

282
00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:41,120
Speaker 1: of years, and then I think up naturally like it does.

283
00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:44,600
Speaker 1: I think most kids figured out before their parents realized

284
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:47,000
Speaker 1: they do, and they just keep playing along because they

285
00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:50,200
Speaker 1: don't want to like wreck the grift. Yeah, not me.

286
00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:53,320
Speaker 1: I was buying that ship. I was like, why would

287
00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:56,960
Speaker 1: they lie to us? That's crazy to my older sister,

288
00:15:57,240 --> 00:15:59,120
Speaker 1: you know. A couple of years back, it was hard.

289
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:02,680
Speaker 1: I remember, Yeah, I remember seeing the gift and getting

290
00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:06,040
Speaker 1: it on Christmas, just being like, weird they got the

291
00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:10,640
Speaker 1: same thing for me. Remember getting pissed one year because

292
00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:13,840
Speaker 1: I found a gift Like you guys don't even fucking trying.

293
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:16,760
Speaker 1: She was in the garage just like out there. Yeah,

294
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:18,680
Speaker 1: like you think I'm not gonna look in the toys

295
00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:22,160
Speaker 1: r us bag. We don't have that ship in the

296
00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:24,880
Speaker 1: house ever, Like, yeah, it was, I think, And then

297
00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:26,840
Speaker 1: most of the time it was just my like mom

298
00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:28,960
Speaker 1: trying to do her best to like hide ship in

299
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:30,720
Speaker 1: the weirdest places so I wouldn't because I was like

300
00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:34,200
Speaker 1: flipping the house like the fetes. Yeah. But yeah, once

301
00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:36,600
Speaker 1: I learned it was a lie, I started smoking. That

302
00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:39,960
Speaker 1: was immediately. Yeah. I was like, I switched from Joe

303
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:44,400
Speaker 1: Cool the state. Yeah, that's why I thought you were

304
00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:46,800
Speaker 1: talking about For some reason, saying Joe Cool just put

305
00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:50,080
Speaker 1: it sticks in my head and Joe cambl oh Jack

306
00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:59,840
Speaker 1: forgot about him. It's don't like it later. What's something

307
00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:03,280
Speaker 1: is underrated? I think eggnog is underrated, but that might

308
00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:06,280
Speaker 1: just be you know, a lot of people think it's gross.

309
00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:10,240
Speaker 1: I think it's great as great as a flavor. It's

310
00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:12,840
Speaker 1: great as a boozey drink. I like it in like

311
00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:16,520
Speaker 1: lattes and cakes and whatever. I just love the flavor.

312
00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:20,480
Speaker 1: And Alex Williams again the ephemeral creator and host. Every year,

313
00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:22,359
Speaker 1: at least back when we were in an office, he

314
00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:25,920
Speaker 1: would make George Washington's eggnog recipe, which contains no less

315
00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:29,000
Speaker 1: than like eight different kinds of booze and like raw

316
00:17:29,080 --> 00:17:36,359
Speaker 1: eggs and games all they like. Have you ever read

317
00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:39,760
Speaker 1: the like list of the booze that was consumed during

318
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:43,879
Speaker 1: the time when they were like drafting the Constitution a

319
00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:48,320
Speaker 1: receipt from It's amazing. It's like bathtub, it's swimming pools

320
00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:51,760
Speaker 1: of like gin and just like all of the like

321
00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:54,600
Speaker 1: dark booze that would make you feel like ship and

322
00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:58,119
Speaker 1: make you incapable of like doing anything. That's all they drank.

323
00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:02,560
Speaker 1: They partied so hard. It's crazy, and it's crazy because today,

324
00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:04,479
Speaker 1: like if you find out that a lawyer or a

325
00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:08,520
Speaker 1: judge had a drink, it's a mistrial. But we based

326
00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:11,720
Speaker 1: our entire democracy on a document drafted by a bunch

327
00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:16,080
Speaker 1: of booze hounds. They were actively drinking, you know. Yeah,

328
00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:19,560
Speaker 1: they used to make room for functional alcoholics because that

329
00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:23,040
Speaker 1: was like kind of all there was was because they

330
00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:26,680
Speaker 1: couldn't Like water wasn't really good back then, it was tainted.

331
00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:31,040
Speaker 1: Is this water been treated with alcohol? Then I cannot drink?

332
00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:35,119
Speaker 1: Where are you going, George, I'm going hanging out with

333
00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:37,240
Speaker 1: the other slavers to figure some ship out about the

334
00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:40,160
Speaker 1: al right, now, get the funk off my back. Yeah,

335
00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:43,199
Speaker 1: it's a living document. Yeah, which is so funny. I

336
00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:46,240
Speaker 1: wonder like, how if you know someone tried to get

337
00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:48,439
Speaker 1: one of these like Supreme Court justices or these like

338
00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:51,120
Speaker 1: strict constitutionalist type people when you like bring that up,

339
00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:52,840
Speaker 1: like you're like, do you think that may have had

340
00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:56,680
Speaker 1: any effect? Like knowing on paper on wax they were

341
00:18:56,960 --> 00:19:03,480
Speaker 1: fucking smashed too, but sanctified, sanctified. Yeah, alright, let's let's

342
00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:06,320
Speaker 1: take one one quick break. We'll be back. We'll talk

343
00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:09,200
Speaker 1: our Christmas ship and then we will bid you ad

344
00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:26,960
Speaker 1: not gang and we're back and yeah, so we're talking

345
00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:31,560
Speaker 1: Christmas stuff. Yeah. Loosely formattic miles, you brought to my

346
00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:34,800
Speaker 1: attention the most homo erotic child's toy I've ever said. Okay,

347
00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:38,080
Speaker 1: so I was just thinking about Christmas, right, and I'm thinking, like,

348
00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:43,280
Speaker 1: the last toy I wanted so fucking bad was this

349
00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:47,680
Speaker 1: thing called the Eliminator t S seven and came out

350
00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:50,840
Speaker 1: like ninety two, and I wanted this show so fucking bad.

351
00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:53,399
Speaker 1: I remember this kid got one for his birthday. I

352
00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:55,680
Speaker 1: almost had a fucking panic at that because I didn't

353
00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:58,480
Speaker 1: have that ship and yet, and I was like, everybody

354
00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:01,520
Speaker 1: got this fucking thing. But I gotta play this commercial

355
00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:04,520
Speaker 1: because I just I was having trouble remembering what it

356
00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:07,160
Speaker 1: was called, and I was just like that nineties toy

357
00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:12,600
Speaker 1: like gun sword thing, and the commercial comes up with media. Yeah,

358
00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:16,560
Speaker 1: the whole thing is that this shitty looking plastic cube

359
00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:20,080
Speaker 1: thing with a fucking like phallic thing just shooting off

360
00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:22,639
Speaker 1: the side is like a seven and one weapon. But

361
00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:25,919
Speaker 1: I do want to play the commercial because it absolutely is.

362
00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:29,760
Speaker 1: It's not anything I remember. The sword has the silhouette

363
00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:32,840
Speaker 1: of a dick, like they've gone with a like you know,

364
00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:36,879
Speaker 1: rounded sword. And then so you think, like if you

365
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:39,159
Speaker 1: if you watch the obviously can't see it because this

366
00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:41,480
Speaker 1: is a podcast format, but if you're watching it, you're like, oh,

367
00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:43,640
Speaker 1: I see what they're talking about. Like the sword has

368
00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:45,840
Speaker 1: a silhouette of a dick. That's it's like, and then

369
00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:53,520
Speaker 1: they added an attachment that is just a flashing dick. Yeah,

370
00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:55,960
Speaker 1: it's just a vibrator. I'll just play the commercial because

371
00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:59,480
Speaker 1: you you will appreciate the nineties sound of this commercial.

372
00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:03,720
Speaker 1: But please picture master blaster. He so he has a

373
00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:07,280
Speaker 1: mask on with like a police helmet. Yeah, riot cop

374
00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:10,040
Speaker 1: kind of yeah, riot cop without a shirt on, just

375
00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:13,399
Speaker 1: oiled up. And also he appears to have been miked

376
00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:20,560
Speaker 1: from across the room. I was hearing there seven off.

377
00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:33,040
Speaker 1: That's a little shrimpy. Definitely, he's jack. Look at that one.

378
00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:35,800
Speaker 1: That one it did. Then he just put a condom

379
00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:38,280
Speaker 1: on top of another and he hit that. He hit

380
00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:40,919
Speaker 1: the gun from the back with the sword. Yeah, and

381
00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:43,360
Speaker 1: then it kind of goes through the front. Nubbin kind

382
00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:45,600
Speaker 1: of sticks out the front, and it's just pre Terminator

383
00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:48,520
Speaker 1: because that is a Terminator text that is Terminator fought right.

384
00:21:48,560 --> 00:21:51,280
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, this is nice. This is probably nine months

385
00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:53,280
Speaker 1: after Terminator came out, and it was like, yeo, man,

386
00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:57,480
Speaker 1: they fast tracked this after seven Oh it's the of course,

387
00:21:57,600 --> 00:22:01,119
Speaker 1: the dash yeah, the limit amazing, amazing exactly. I was.

388
00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:03,400
Speaker 1: I just remember being like, this is the coolest ship,

389
00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:05,880
Speaker 1: and then I looked at it again. I'm like, man,

390
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:09,200
Speaker 1: fucking marketing fucked me up so bad as a kid

391
00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:11,280
Speaker 1: that I was just like, I have no fucking use

392
00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:14,800
Speaker 1: for this stupid thing. But it's like man, meat man

393
00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:18,520
Speaker 1: is screaming in my face. I will please in doctor

394
00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:20,919
Speaker 1: nate me. I have this distinct memory of going to

395
00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:22,280
Speaker 1: like flea market when I was a kid, and you

396
00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:24,399
Speaker 1: know how they have like booth to sell like weird

397
00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:27,800
Speaker 1: knives and nunchucks and ship like that. There was something

398
00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:31,919
Speaker 1: that was called a taser knife, and I just always

399
00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:34,040
Speaker 1: remember that, like why do you need it to be

400
00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:36,240
Speaker 1: both like so you chase them and then you stab

401
00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:38,639
Speaker 1: them or or is vice versa or is it just

402
00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:41,159
Speaker 1: in case they get up close? It just seems like

403
00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:45,320
Speaker 1: one of the most difficult applications of a taser, like

404
00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:48,480
Speaker 1: how do you do how do you safely? Because either

405
00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:52,080
Speaker 1: are you are you committed to like sticking somebody with

406
00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:53,960
Speaker 1: the blaze and then you're like, actually I want to

407
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:59,280
Speaker 1: go non lethal with the taser afterwards. But yeah, it's

408
00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:02,560
Speaker 1: the the s and m vibes are like real, like

409
00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:07,960
Speaker 1: his voice is like something good. What would what would

410
00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:11,120
Speaker 1: the what would conservatives? What would Marjorie Taylor Green say

411
00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:13,520
Speaker 1: about this commercial? Because it's clearly meant to be like

412
00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:17,679
Speaker 1: this is this is boy shit gone knife boy. This

413
00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:21,360
Speaker 1: is made by conservatives, but for the children of conservatives,

414
00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:24,920
Speaker 1: they would probably Yeah, but just knowing how sensitive, how

415
00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:28,560
Speaker 1: you know, the the faux outrage over anything seemingly like

416
00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:31,960
Speaker 1: out of the heteronormativity of like you know, what they

417
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:35,479
Speaker 1: believe how men or women are or aren't that they

418
00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:38,560
Speaker 1: would be like this guy's naked, he looks like one

419
00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:41,359
Speaker 1: of these like you know s and m guys. Or

420
00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:44,439
Speaker 1: would they just be like, finally a fucking role model

421
00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:46,879
Speaker 1: for our young kids. It's a biker cop with I

422
00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:50,000
Speaker 1: think I think that, Yeah, I'm with I'm with Jack.

423
00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:51,520
Speaker 1: I think they would dig it. I think they would

424
00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:55,000
Speaker 1: appreciate what it represents. It's got some Chippendale vibes to

425
00:23:55,359 --> 00:24:00,280
Speaker 1: listening pectorials, you know, like yeah, so even Mark Taylor

426
00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:02,879
Speaker 1: Green's like, I don't know, I mean, he's he's attractive. Well,

427
00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:06,560
Speaker 1: she or she would be like outrage if if this

428
00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:09,280
Speaker 1: was like I don't know it could it could go

429
00:24:09,320 --> 00:24:11,639
Speaker 1: either way. It could go I think I think they

430
00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:15,120
Speaker 1: would be happy that this was out there, mad when

431
00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:20,320
Speaker 1: a liberal media institution pointed out that it was fucked up,

432
00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:23,359
Speaker 1: and be like, you guys are sick, okay, But then

433
00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:27,520
Speaker 1: also I feel like, invite this guy to their Christmas party.

434
00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:31,280
Speaker 1: You know, like they were pictures of like with male

435
00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:34,280
Speaker 1: escorts and stuff like with like Chip and Dale types.

436
00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:37,720
Speaker 1: I could have sworn there was some like pictures yea,

437
00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:42,400
Speaker 1: but yeah, then the application the toy itself is extremely phallic,

438
00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:45,720
Speaker 1: where like different parts of the gun fuck different parts

439
00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:48,960
Speaker 1: the gun. Yeah, and there's like a condom that makes

440
00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:52,440
Speaker 1: the gun bigger or makes the sword bigger. And then

441
00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:57,480
Speaker 1: ultimately there's a laser blaster that is a three dimensional

442
00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:02,600
Speaker 1: dick that just flashes. Only we're also a super soaker

443
00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:04,879
Speaker 1: kind of situation that would just really be the cherry

444
00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:10,040
Speaker 1: on top of anyway by gone toys. And I'm sorry

445
00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:11,760
Speaker 1: when you were describing this earlier, I was picturing a

446
00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:15,320
Speaker 1: human situation. That's why I said Harry Underpants, because he's

447
00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:17,639
Speaker 1: also an S and M E jacked kind of you know,

448
00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:22,320
Speaker 1: oiled up action figure. That was my favorite toy Christmas

449
00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:27,320
Speaker 1: present was the he Man Castle. Yeah, and those are

450
00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:29,240
Speaker 1: cool bank now, I mean that like all that stuff

451
00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:32,480
Speaker 1: is like seriously collectible. The other one that that is

452
00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:35,040
Speaker 1: similar to this was a machine gun from the A Team,

453
00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:37,600
Speaker 1: and I went, I was like it couldn't have been

454
00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:40,800
Speaker 1: as I remember it, which was just a like screen

455
00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:46,120
Speaker 1: accurate machine gun, like a black metal, metallic looking machine

456
00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:49,520
Speaker 1: gun that just had a team on the on the butt.

457
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:52,879
Speaker 1: And I'm sure enough that's what it was. It was

458
00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:56,840
Speaker 1: a submachine gun with a box that has one of

459
00:25:56,840 --> 00:25:59,520
Speaker 1: the characters from the A Team just like spraying someone

460
00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:04,200
Speaker 1: with team gunfire. And yeah, they it was the UZI

461
00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:08,560
Speaker 1: like the they have a K forty seven M six team,

462
00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:12,119
Speaker 1: like they have the real names of the right I

463
00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:15,280
Speaker 1: had And it's a slick sound, right, It was kind

464
00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:19,639
Speaker 1: of is that the deal? They even advertised that it

465
00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:24,920
Speaker 1: like makes authentic automatic weapons sound murder sounds. Yeah, make

466
00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:28,560
Speaker 1: your child feel like he's really murdering someone, just just

467
00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:30,960
Speaker 1: be just he could be just like the Israeli Defense

468
00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:34,960
Speaker 1: forces with this ouzi who were the bad guys in

469
00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:37,120
Speaker 1: the A Team? Were they like killing commies or something?

470
00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:39,000
Speaker 1: Was there a political bent too? I just have no

471
00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:41,399
Speaker 1: recollection of this show. I gotta wonder who were they

472
00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:44,880
Speaker 1: pitted against. I think I remember reading something something this

473
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:48,080
Speaker 1: year that what they had an episode that was like

474
00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:52,399
Speaker 1: really pro union and they were like fighting people who

475
00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:55,640
Speaker 1: were like union busters. So maybe like the team actually

476
00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:59,840
Speaker 1: had like progressive politics. I can't I didn't dig into

477
00:26:59,880 --> 00:27:05,000
Speaker 1: it as much as I should have, but yeah, they're

478
00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:09,880
Speaker 1: fighting Pinkerton's and ship Okay, all right, y'all, okay, like off,

479
00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:14,400
Speaker 1: we were fucking there during Haymarket Man, fuck it alright, Annibal,

480
00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:19,679
Speaker 1: a show that is entirely about the worst marksman in

481
00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:25,359
Speaker 1: the history of gunplay. Just shooting into the ground. Just run,

482
00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:28,879
Speaker 1: run over a hill and fire an automatic weapon into

483
00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:31,680
Speaker 1: the ground. It seemed to be their strategy at all,

484
00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:34,159
Speaker 1: at all times. While we're still on toys, Canna ask

485
00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:36,360
Speaker 1: you guys, Um, have you guys heard of Trumpy Bear?

486
00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:40,600
Speaker 1: Has this crossed your path? And yeah, yeah, a buddy

487
00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:43,159
Speaker 1: of mine's dad lives in Queens and it's like, you know,

488
00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:46,720

00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:49,399
Speaker 1: a news Max dude. Um. He sent me a video

490
00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:52,240
Speaker 1: of this like mail order commercial like from the old days.

491
00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:54,080
Speaker 1: It was like the eight hundred number for this thing

492
00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:57,160
Speaker 1: called Trumpy Bear and he's you know, double thumbs up.

493
00:27:57,240 --> 00:28:00,119
Speaker 1: He's got the swath of you know, weird hair and

494
00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:02,200
Speaker 1: he's yeah, and he's got like a little zipper pouched

495
00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:04,199
Speaker 1: on his back of his neck. The unfurls like an

496
00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:06,760
Speaker 1: American flag cape. And he bought it for his dad

497
00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:09,240
Speaker 1: and pushed the video of it on social that. I

498
00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:12,280
Speaker 1: was just tickled by the we should play because the

499
00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:18,440
Speaker 1: opening is like, it's like, I think you should leave.

500
00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:22,200
Speaker 1: It's it's absolutely the wind whispered through the forest, A

501
00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:27,720
Speaker 1: storm is coming. Storm from the trees rose the resounding voice.

502
00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:32,960
Speaker 1: Why fear nothing. I come when the trumpet sound the

503
00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:36,960
Speaker 1: way that line was delivered. I come when the trumpets

504
00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:42,400
Speaker 1: sounds like, okay through I am the storm. The Great

505
00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:50,720
Speaker 1: American Grizzly introducing the original Trumpy Bear super plus American

506
00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:55,280
Speaker 1: trump Bear was born June fourteen. However you want to

507
00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:59,719
Speaker 1: you know, born flag day. Hold that l you fucking lives.

508
00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:03,800
Speaker 1: This is wild. Yeah, I mean it seems like it's

509
00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:09,880
Speaker 1: specifically designed to piss off liberal people like yeah, but

510
00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:13,120
Speaker 1: also like but luckily they're they don't have like a

511
00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:16,440
Speaker 1: very discerning audience, so they're not like, oh, this is

512
00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:18,920
Speaker 1: a little too hack for me. We're like, just get

513
00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:23,760
Speaker 1: to the part. Okay, American flag right whispered through the forest,

514
00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:29,520
Speaker 1: such a wild and the trumpets sound. That's what it said.

515
00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:32,680
Speaker 1: Oh wind whispered through the forest that a storm is coming.

516
00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:35,360
Speaker 1: Like you just just jumped straight to Q from that

517
00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:38,240
Speaker 1: first sentence. But and they and they said the Great

518
00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:41,840
Speaker 1: American grizzly as like that was the climax, which leads

519
00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:44,480
Speaker 1: me to believe that they did not get the market,

520
00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:49,080
Speaker 1: like the trademark rights to Trump's likeness, right, Like that

521
00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:52,480
Speaker 1: must be why they didn't. They don't really like mentioned

522
00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:55,440
Speaker 1: Donald Trump. Oh, because it's like a grift on a griff,

523
00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:58,600
Speaker 1: because that he's like he can sue them. Yeah, I

524
00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:02,840
Speaker 1: mean it's just cool to watch, like I like right

525
00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:05,920
Speaker 1: around on his fucking motorcycle with this bear or this

526
00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:07,880
Speaker 1: guy who's like in a golf cart. He's like, when

527
00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:10,239
Speaker 1: I'm trying to be racist to Asian people that are

528
00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:12,480
Speaker 1: on this golf course, I used the trumpy bear and

529
00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:15,320
Speaker 1: the stars and bars flag to let them know I'm hostile.

530
00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:21,360
Speaker 1: Do you not approach? Yeah? Alright, let's move on to

531
00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:24,680
Speaker 1: Christmas movies. For the Great Christmas Presents. No does anything,

532
00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:27,120
Speaker 1: stick out to your favorite favorite Christmas present before we leave,

533
00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:30,400
Speaker 1: favorite Christmas president or when you want it. Yeah. I

534
00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:34,320
Speaker 1: think I got like a Huffy remember Huffy's Yeah, yeah,

535
00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:36,360
Speaker 1: I got Huffy. I think it was like, you know,

536
00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:39,800
Speaker 1: mega boy Huffy, Like it had like machine gun turrets

537
00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:42,240
Speaker 1: mounted on it, or and it just has like a

538
00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:45,200
Speaker 1: picture of a young boy but he's built like the

539
00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:50,479
Speaker 1: Master Blaster dude from Total Miles was commercial now and

540
00:30:50,520 --> 00:30:52,840
Speaker 1: I just think of like paint sniffers, you know what

541
00:30:52,840 --> 00:30:56,120
Speaker 1: I mean, Like it's just which was something the kids

542
00:30:56,120 --> 00:31:00,360
Speaker 1: in my middle school we're into. So yeah, Full circ

543
00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:04,880
Speaker 1: date in Ohio. Full Circle now where Gummos based might

544
00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:11,320
Speaker 1: shitty Rabbit stinks like shit. So I want to talk

545
00:31:11,320 --> 00:31:14,560
Speaker 1: about Christmas movies. So, first of all, this is something

546
00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:19,280
Speaker 1: I bring up frequently. But if you look at the

547
00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:23,120
Speaker 1: birthdays in the US, what we're living through right now,

548
00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:27,160
Speaker 1: this time period is actually America's breeding season. This is

549
00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:30,680
Speaker 1: when the most babies are conceived in the next couple

550
00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:34,640
Speaker 1: of weeks, presumably because everyone's indoors. I think in America

551
00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:37,360
Speaker 1: we have the artificial high of like buying gifts and

552
00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:41,959
Speaker 1: just being so like market capitalism brained that just getting

553
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:46,120
Speaker 1: to buy or steal or you know, give things. Transactions

554
00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:50,200
Speaker 1: get people high. It's also among the most acceptable times

555
00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:54,240
Speaker 1: to be publicly drunk, which I think always helps with that.

556
00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:56,840
Speaker 1: And then I don't know, it's like built in two

557
00:31:57,880 --> 00:32:02,520
Speaker 1: our system and like into into our civilization that like

558
00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:06,760
Speaker 1: there there's a giant, you know, week long festival around

559
00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:10,719
Speaker 1: this time to honor the winter solstice and you know,

560
00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:13,880
Speaker 1: laugh in the face of God for trying to kill

561
00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:17,520
Speaker 1: us yet again with winter, and with the thing that

562
00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:19,160
Speaker 1: we like to do when laughing in the face of

563
00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:21,760
Speaker 1: God is fuck each other. So I was just like

564
00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:25,800
Speaker 1: thinking about Christmas culture. By the way I started, I

565
00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:28,320
Speaker 1: started my the first thing I wanted to do was

566
00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:31,400
Speaker 1: answer the question why so many birds in the twelve

567
00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:35,360
Speaker 1: Days of Christmas? And it's just there's no there's no

568
00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:38,479
Speaker 1: real good answer. Well, you're like, before I get to horny,

569
00:32:38,520 --> 00:32:42,840
Speaker 1: why the birds throwing me off? It seems that that

570
00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:45,880
Speaker 1: song seems like it's written by like a bird themed

571
00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:49,640
Speaker 1: batman villain. It's just all birds. I have a pretty

572
00:32:49,720 --> 00:32:53,320
Speaker 1: significant bird phobia, you guys. Oh man, I'm sorry. I

573
00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:55,520
Speaker 1: always have. I have traced it back to being a

574
00:32:55,600 --> 00:32:57,400
Speaker 1: kid and my Grandpa's taken me to the beach and

575
00:32:57,440 --> 00:33:01,240
Speaker 1: just throwing breadcrumbs everywhere, and seagulls dive bombing my little

576
00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:04,600
Speaker 1: boy body and it's just a super traumatic I like,

577
00:33:04,800 --> 00:33:07,160
Speaker 1: it's a sense memory, and like I don't like their

578
00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:10,440
Speaker 1: twitchy movements. They're very unpredictable, you know, So this would

579
00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:13,640
Speaker 1: be a nightmare gift for me. Yes, so many every

580
00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:17,280
Speaker 1: fucking day. It makes such bad gifts. Also, that's the

581
00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:20,880
Speaker 1: context of the song is but like seven days of

582
00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:28,920
Speaker 1: just bird gifts, which like it's up through the milking,

583
00:33:28,920 --> 00:33:31,400
Speaker 1: aren't like an actual some kind of bird reference up

584
00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:34,760
Speaker 1: through seven. I think it's all birds except for the

585
00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:38,920
Speaker 1: five Golden rings. The five golden rings is a reference

586
00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:41,120
Speaker 1: to like a golden ringed bird. I just saw some

587
00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:45,800
Speaker 1: tweet about that. Yes, really, yes, but the imagery is

588
00:33:45,800 --> 00:33:48,640
Speaker 1: always like goldenh Okay, that's that's news. I don't think

589
00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:50,880
Speaker 1: people I don't know it. But again, it's Twitter, and

590
00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:52,720
Speaker 1: it's the last days of Twitter, so you know, people

591
00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:55,440
Speaker 1: could saying anything and I'll believe it. There's a thing

592
00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:58,160
Speaker 1: in the office or Andy Bernard was dating um Ellie

593
00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:01,320
Speaker 1: Kemper's character and he did I r L the twelve

594
00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:03,480
Speaker 1: Days of Christmas and it was just like she was

595
00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:07,840
Speaker 1: just covered in scratches and from being bird attacked, you know.

596
00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:10,640
Speaker 1: But anyways, back to the horny and it's of Christmas.

597
00:34:10,680 --> 00:34:14,040
Speaker 1: So Christmas is our horny is Holiday? Valentine's Day be damned,

598
00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:17,239
Speaker 1: you know, it is Christmas just naturally, even though no

599
00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:21,279
Speaker 1: one says that we all like the birthdays, reveal year

600
00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:28,360
Speaker 1: after year people are fucking around. Yeah, and the music

601
00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:31,240
Speaker 1: reflects that. When you listen to the music, there are

602
00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:34,600
Speaker 1: there is. It is shot through with sexuality, like the

603
00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:38,759
Speaker 1: you know, the classic Christmas songs are very horny in

604
00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:43,440
Speaker 1: a lot of cases. So I'm wondering, like it feels

605
00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:48,000
Speaker 1: like holiday movies need to get hornyar I'm I'm identifying

606
00:34:48,320 --> 00:34:52,560
Speaker 1: a gap here that And it's also I think the

607
00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:55,880
Speaker 1: answer to the question that I know, like half of

608
00:34:55,920 --> 00:34:58,400
Speaker 1: the population has half of the population loves the movie

609
00:34:58,440 --> 00:35:01,319
Speaker 1: Love Actually, and the other of the population is like,

610
00:35:01,680 --> 00:35:08,000
Speaker 1: why is this a thing? Why not cards? Yeah? Note cards?

611
00:35:08,040 --> 00:35:14,440
Speaker 1: So my theory is that Love actually is addressing a need,

612
00:35:14,960 --> 00:35:18,840
Speaker 1: like it's addressing a hole in the market, which obviously

613
00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:22,239
Speaker 1: there are like holiday romcoms, but this is like the

614
00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:25,879
Speaker 1: most mainstream one. And I think it's getting a lot

615
00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:28,640
Speaker 1: of the attention and a lot of the love that

616
00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:32,319
Speaker 1: could be taken up by other ones, just because it

617
00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:36,880
Speaker 1: is inhabited by people who are thinking about and having sex.

618
00:35:37,360 --> 00:35:41,600
Speaker 1: And and that's something that is missing from our holiday movies.

619
00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:43,759
Speaker 1: Like most holiday movies are still just like a re

620
00:35:43,960 --> 00:35:47,000
Speaker 1: skin of either a Christmas Carol or The Grinch or

621
00:35:47,080 --> 00:35:51,120
Speaker 1: Miracle Onto Streets, Miracle on thirty four Street. And you

622
00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:56,839
Speaker 1: know it's like all these asexual protagonists. I yeah, we

623
00:35:56,920 --> 00:36:00,600
Speaker 1: need more sex in our Christmas movies, is what I'm

624
00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:04,880
Speaker 1: is what I'm saying. So George Bailey should have been hornier.

625
00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:11,160
Speaker 1: Like I get that. It's you know, a time when

626
00:36:11,200 --> 00:36:13,160
Speaker 1: people are like, oh, they're watching movies with their kids,

627
00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:17,400
Speaker 1: but like, love actually should not be Love actually should

628
00:36:17,400 --> 00:36:19,560
Speaker 1: not be the only option for like after the kids

629
00:36:19,560 --> 00:36:22,320
Speaker 1: go to bed, like a movie in which that is

630
00:36:22,360 --> 00:36:26,720
Speaker 1: inhabited by a universe of characters who have had sex before.

631
00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:29,400
Speaker 1: Like that, love actually should not be it. And I

632
00:36:29,440 --> 00:36:33,880
Speaker 1: think that is where love actually's outsized impact is coming

633
00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:36,719
Speaker 1: from in our culture. Let's also not forget the most

634
00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:40,680
Speaker 1: overtly rapey Christmas song baby It's cold out, So Yes

635
00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:44,160
Speaker 1: so songs the songs are the songs get it. The

636
00:36:44,239 --> 00:36:47,440
Speaker 1: songs get it. The movies the songs get The songs

637
00:36:47,480 --> 00:36:50,839
Speaker 1: are like I saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus hang low,

638
00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:55,000
Speaker 1: the missiletoe Hello. They don't say, but you get the point.

639
00:36:55,120 --> 00:36:57,759
Speaker 1: The newest like all I Want for Christmas is You,

640
00:36:57,920 --> 00:37:01,160
Speaker 1: with the accompanying image of Murrai in that Santa suit.

641
00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:03,840
Speaker 1: I think is one of the most iconic, like cultural

642
00:37:04,600 --> 00:37:09,000
Speaker 1: moments of our lifetime. Like that it became it's like

643
00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:11,960
Speaker 1: the number one Christmas song now like that for so

644
00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:14,960
Speaker 1: many years of my like when I was young, like

645
00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:17,600
Speaker 1: all the Christmas songs were kind of set, and then

646
00:37:17,640 --> 00:37:20,719
Speaker 1: that thing came through and she looks great, she looks

647
00:37:20,920 --> 00:37:24,640
Speaker 1: you know, like I think the songs get it, though

648
00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:26,399
Speaker 1: you can. You can do a lot just with like

649
00:37:26,520 --> 00:37:30,239
Speaker 1: the voice and you know, just the vibes that the

650
00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:32,799
Speaker 1: song is giving off. But it's funny, man, I haven't

651
00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:35,759
Speaker 1: heard all that one for Christmas is you Want this Season? Yet?

652
00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:39,000
Speaker 1: But I have heard ten different versions of Last Christmas

653
00:37:39,040 --> 00:37:42,640
Speaker 1: by Wham, every version except the Wham version, which I love.

654
00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:46,839
Speaker 1: But these like half asked knockoff covers are just embarrassing

655
00:37:47,280 --> 00:37:48,880
Speaker 1: and like, why do you even need a cover of that.

656
00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:52,840
Speaker 1: The original is fantastic. You know what, I'm curious, because

657
00:37:52,960 --> 00:37:55,040
Speaker 1: you know you like music, are is there a song

658
00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:58,759
Speaker 1: that There's so many songs people hate during Christmas, like

659
00:37:59,120 --> 00:38:01,239
Speaker 1: the Wham thing, Like it's like, you know, it's like

660
00:38:01,239 --> 00:38:05,239
Speaker 1: a trope on the internet of like trying to yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

661
00:38:05,239 --> 00:38:07,359
Speaker 1: I haven't heard it yet this December. So we heard

662
00:38:07,400 --> 00:38:10,000
Speaker 1: it like in the lead up somebody like recommended as

663
00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:12,759
Speaker 1: an a k and so I listened to it then,

664
00:38:12,840 --> 00:38:15,239
Speaker 1: but someone was like, actually it doesn't start until December one.

665
00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:19,319
Speaker 1: I haven't heard it since the game started, so I'm

666
00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:23,520
Speaker 1: living clean. Okay, what's your what's your most controversial favorite

667
00:38:23,560 --> 00:38:26,360
Speaker 1: Christmas song? It would would it be that one? Yeah? Probably?

668
00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:28,120
Speaker 1: I love that song just a lot, Like I've covered

669
00:38:28,160 --> 00:38:30,279
Speaker 1: it before myself, like with like a vocoder and like

670
00:38:30,560 --> 00:38:33,439
Speaker 1: very like chromatics kind of like Italians do it better vibes.

671
00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:35,840
Speaker 1: But I really love the song Father Christmas by The

672
00:38:35,920 --> 00:38:39,440
Speaker 1: Kinks because it's just like a good kind of punky

673
00:38:39,640 --> 00:38:42,839
Speaker 1: fun XTC vibe kind of like banger. I think that's

674
00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:47,719
Speaker 1: an underrated song. I think Wonderful Christmas Time by Paul McCartney.

675
00:38:47,719 --> 00:38:54,879
Speaker 1: I've looked with that. People think, really, it's so fucking wild. Yeah,

676
00:38:54,920 --> 00:38:56,840
Speaker 1: it's it's the part I was just talking with Justin

677
00:38:56,920 --> 00:38:59,040
Speaker 1: before we got on and he was like, I think

678
00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:01,799
Speaker 1: people don't funk would because the chord progression is very

679
00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:04,040
Speaker 1: like simplistic. I'm like, that's why I love it. And

680
00:39:04,040 --> 00:39:06,680
Speaker 1: then when those sins that delay gets out of control,

681
00:39:06,920 --> 00:39:10,759
Speaker 1: disrespects your sense of hearing like an equilibrium, yes, and

682
00:39:10,760 --> 00:39:15,560
Speaker 1: then do you really like it? Yeah? Okay, it's so

683
00:39:15,560 --> 00:39:17,360
Speaker 1: So This is Christmas by John Lennon, which is just

684
00:39:17,400 --> 00:39:21,440
Speaker 1: such a downer, mega depressing thing. It really highlights their

685
00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:25,080
Speaker 1: you know, different sides of the beat. So you're lendin Jack.

686
00:39:25,800 --> 00:39:30,640
Speaker 1: I like that song, probably better than the McCartney one two.

687
00:39:30,640 --> 00:39:33,040
Speaker 1: It's in the Maytells by Byron Lee and the Dragonaires

688
00:39:33,040 --> 00:39:35,960
Speaker 1: is my favorite Christmas excellent song. Oh wow, okay, I'm

689
00:39:36,000 --> 00:39:41,879
Speaker 1: over here being like man Andy Williams do and Dick

690
00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:46,640
Speaker 1: Gary Doc and don't forget da your sock like that ship,

691
00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:50,600
Speaker 1: I'm up your sock you. Oh no, I kiss off

692
00:39:51,080 --> 00:39:54,359
Speaker 1: piss off her majesty every time because I add my

693
00:39:54,360 --> 00:39:57,440
Speaker 1: own lyrics to that. Yeah, yeah, because you know you

694
00:39:58,480 --> 00:40:11,160
Speaker 1: and Andy ship faced again and on my handy handy andy,

695
00:40:12,080 --> 00:40:19,839
Speaker 1: alright on my whoa. But I think those I think

696
00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:23,080
Speaker 1: for it's interesting from I always talk about this, like

697
00:40:23,120 --> 00:40:26,480
Speaker 1: from my experience of like being like not being a

698
00:40:26,480 --> 00:40:30,880
Speaker 1: white American person and that only being the predominant messaging

699
00:40:30,920 --> 00:40:33,520
Speaker 1: that was just shot at my face like through TV

700
00:40:33,680 --> 00:40:36,319
Speaker 1: and media like as a child, that I have this

701
00:40:36,680 --> 00:40:40,160
Speaker 1: very idealistic idea of it that sort of conforms to

702
00:40:40,239 --> 00:40:44,520
Speaker 1: this like target commercial lexus December to remember type aesthetic

703
00:40:44,880 --> 00:40:48,120
Speaker 1: that's completely like got me, like like that's the version

704
00:40:48,120 --> 00:40:50,799
Speaker 1: of Christmas. I'm like, yeah, yeah, that that's Christmas. So

705
00:40:50,840 --> 00:40:52,400
Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't know if that's a tragedy

706
00:40:52,560 --> 00:40:57,160
Speaker 1: or not. To goddamn tragedy is what it is. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

707
00:40:57,840 --> 00:41:01,040
Speaker 1: Christmas travesty. Thanks, Thanks, I just wanted to get that

708
00:41:01,080 --> 00:41:03,319
Speaker 1: out there. So all right, and finally we have to

709
00:41:03,320 --> 00:41:06,399
Speaker 1: get to j M's conspiracy theory. You know, we have

710
00:41:06,520 --> 00:41:11,839
Speaker 1: one of the very conspiracy stuff purveyors with us, and

711
00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:14,439
Speaker 1: I think this is a pretty good one. So what

712
00:41:14,440 --> 00:41:17,360
Speaker 1: what would What were people's thoughts initially when the old

713
00:41:17,400 --> 00:41:20,680
Speaker 1: man from Home Alone came out and saved the day,

714
00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:23,439
Speaker 1: was that he was just like good, yeah, it's weird.

715
00:41:23,600 --> 00:41:26,280
Speaker 1: I just gave him a pass because he has kids

716
00:41:26,840 --> 00:41:29,600
Speaker 1: that he the and like, he's got a kind face.

717
00:41:29,719 --> 00:41:32,279
Speaker 1: They nailed the casting to the point that he's like, hey,

718
00:41:32,480 --> 00:41:37,239
Speaker 1: I just don't have good dental healthcare. My my my

719
00:41:37,320 --> 00:41:40,120
Speaker 1: job doesn't have good dentals. But otherwise I'm a pretty

720
00:41:40,120 --> 00:41:42,840
Speaker 1: good guy. And he's only he's only beaten on the

721
00:41:42,880 --> 00:41:46,239
Speaker 1: bad guys. So I mean, yeah, right right. It's a

722
00:41:46,239 --> 00:41:49,319
Speaker 1: starting violent movie, brutally violent, and it's only a kid

723
00:41:49,400 --> 00:41:53,759
Speaker 1: perpetrating all these acts of violence. Which is why it's popular,

724
00:41:54,080 --> 00:41:58,080
Speaker 1: is because it's you know, allowing us to enact our

725
00:41:58,160 --> 00:42:02,359
Speaker 1: fantasies as children to you know, just take take adults out.

726
00:42:02,640 --> 00:42:05,359
Speaker 1: I think, hell yeah, I mean, did you any if

727
00:42:05,360 --> 00:42:07,399
Speaker 1: you ever try and emulate that? Remember my mom caught

728
00:42:07,400 --> 00:42:09,840
Speaker 1: me paint cans. Oh man, I thought I was putting

729
00:42:09,880 --> 00:42:12,280
Speaker 1: like thumb tax and ship on the ground. Well boy,

730
00:42:12,719 --> 00:42:15,640
Speaker 1: rusty nail through a piece of wood. Yeah, And I

731
00:42:15,640 --> 00:42:17,400
Speaker 1: didn't go that far. We only have thumb tacks. And

732
00:42:17,480 --> 00:42:21,080
Speaker 1: I was like, what in the fund is this? I'm like, Kevin,

733
00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:24,360
Speaker 1: did you guys see X that uh kind of seventies

734
00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:27,479
Speaker 1: born slasher thing with no I didn't me at goth

735
00:42:27,560 --> 00:42:30,440
Speaker 1: It's really good. But there is a literally pulled right

736
00:42:30,480 --> 00:42:33,759
Speaker 1: out of Home Alone rusty nail through a board in

737
00:42:33,760 --> 00:42:36,239
Speaker 1: that movie, and it's a close up, but they go

738
00:42:36,320 --> 00:42:41,000
Speaker 1: further than Home Alone could go. So a recent study,

739
00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:44,440
Speaker 1: first of all, is just interesting little nugget that they

740
00:42:44,520 --> 00:42:48,480
Speaker 1: asked people around America favorite Christmas movie their number. The

741
00:42:48,600 --> 00:42:52,520
Speaker 1: number one by kind of a lot is Nationally includence

742
00:42:52,600 --> 00:42:57,480
Speaker 1: Christmas Vacation, which I mean hanging with the Grizz Walls

743
00:42:57,480 --> 00:42:59,920
Speaker 1: Hanging with the grizz you know, makes us all love

744
00:43:00,040 --> 00:43:03,160
Speaker 1: Chevy Chase by constantly placing him next to Randy Quaid.

745
00:43:03,360 --> 00:43:07,080
Speaker 1: I've never seen it, hey, man, that's that's your assignment

746
00:43:07,160 --> 00:43:10,279
Speaker 1: for the part where the lights go on are with

747
00:43:10,400 --> 00:43:15,080
Speaker 1: Vegas Vacation of all the National Room? Is that real? Yes?

748
00:43:15,920 --> 00:43:18,560
Speaker 1: And the cast is all different. But that used to

749
00:43:18,560 --> 00:43:20,239
Speaker 1: be on Comedy Central, like on a loop in the

750
00:43:20,320 --> 00:43:22,520
Speaker 1: late night. That's what I've seen. It is Randy Quaid,

751
00:43:22,560 --> 00:43:26,000
Speaker 1: okay now? Or is he still way in the wind.

752
00:43:27,600 --> 00:43:31,759
Speaker 1: He's whispering in the forest right now. My friends are

753
00:43:31,800 --> 00:43:36,080
Speaker 1: whispering through the forest that the storm is coming and

754
00:43:36,200 --> 00:43:39,160
Speaker 1: he is the storm. So the fifth most popular holiday

755
00:43:39,200 --> 00:43:43,640
Speaker 1: classic is home alone and our writer Jam wanted to

756
00:43:43,719 --> 00:43:47,080
Speaker 1: discuss the Old Man. So Old Man Marley is introduced

757
00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:52,120
Speaker 1: by Buzz, who claims that he's the South Bends shovel slayer,

758
00:43:52,600 --> 00:43:56,120
Speaker 1: a serial killer who beat a murder rap in because

759
00:43:56,120 --> 00:43:59,120
Speaker 1: the cops could never find the bodies. He's out back

760
00:43:59,320 --> 00:44:02,440
Speaker 1: using his snow shovel, So we're kind of led to

761
00:44:02,480 --> 00:44:05,680
Speaker 1: believe this is probably just a thing you're older, Like

762
00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:11,000
Speaker 1: cousin tells you to freak you out right, Yeah, that's like, hey,

763
00:44:11,040 --> 00:44:13,400
Speaker 1: the guy's got a shovel. He actually kills people with

764
00:44:13,440 --> 00:44:16,880
Speaker 1: a shovel. And then, like we later see, Kevin convinced

765
00:44:16,920 --> 00:44:19,319
Speaker 1: him to reach out to as a strange son. Their

766
00:44:19,360 --> 00:44:22,839
Speaker 1: families reunited for Christmas, but he like doesn't really do

767
00:44:22,920 --> 00:44:26,359
Speaker 1: anything to prove his innocence to Kevin. He doesn't like

768
00:44:27,280 --> 00:44:30,720
Speaker 1: tell tell us that, like, oh, I actually just moved

769
00:44:30,719 --> 00:44:34,040
Speaker 1: here from Australia, where I lived for the entire nineteen

770
00:44:34,200 --> 00:44:41,120
Speaker 1: seventies and eighties. You know. Yeah, so it's one question.

771
00:44:41,360 --> 00:44:44,880
Speaker 1: Yeah when when that scene when they're looking at Old

772
00:44:44,880 --> 00:44:50,279
Speaker 1: Man Marley, Yeah, is he just shoveling fucking aimlessly? He

773
00:44:50,360 --> 00:44:54,120
Speaker 1: does appear to be shoveling snow in a backyard into

774
00:44:54,200 --> 00:44:57,680
Speaker 1: a garbage camp. It's not how you do that. Yeah,

775
00:44:57,840 --> 00:45:00,440
Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm even from I'm look, don't know, I

776
00:45:00,440 --> 00:45:03,839
Speaker 1: don't know the first fucking thing about winter, but yeah

777
00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:07,400
Speaker 1: that I always remember the walk. I'm like, yeah, I'm like,

778
00:45:07,440 --> 00:45:09,759
Speaker 1: who's fucking property? Is that? What's he doing? Like is

779
00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:11,840
Speaker 1: that a chore you do? Like just hey, man, go

780
00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:14,920
Speaker 1: shovel that one area by the tree, that shoveling the

781
00:45:14,960 --> 00:45:17,160
Speaker 1: forest floor, which seems like a fool's errand you know

782
00:45:17,200 --> 00:45:20,640
Speaker 1: what I mean? So is that our first set up

783
00:45:21,080 --> 00:45:23,480
Speaker 1: from the director to be like, yeo, this this motherfuckering

784
00:45:23,840 --> 00:45:26,680
Speaker 1: something you're eyeing him here he's in the middle of

785
00:45:26,680 --> 00:45:29,000
Speaker 1: the backyard. Yeah, in the middle of like a backyard

786
00:45:29,000 --> 00:45:31,640
Speaker 1: that I don't think is his. Maybe it is, but

787
00:45:31,680 --> 00:45:34,520
Speaker 1: like do they have backyards in Illinois or is it

788
00:45:34,520 --> 00:45:37,640
Speaker 1: like oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah. Like people some

789
00:45:37,680 --> 00:45:39,880
Speaker 1: places don't have fences and ship that always bugs me

790
00:45:39,920 --> 00:45:41,440
Speaker 1: out when I go to that part of America, or

791
00:45:41,480 --> 00:45:43,640
Speaker 1: it's like, wait, what the funk you don't have a fence.

792
00:45:43,960 --> 00:45:46,759
Speaker 1: This is also a really fancy neighborhood, by the way,

793
00:45:46,840 --> 00:45:50,839
Speaker 1: and to get all that money, there's all this talk

794
00:45:50,880 --> 00:45:53,360
Speaker 1: about you know, the actor that plays Kevin's dad is

795
00:45:53,400 --> 00:45:57,320
Speaker 1: also the crooked cop in the Sopranos Umn Tony's Payroll.

796
00:45:57,760 --> 00:45:59,920
Speaker 1: So there's this theory that like it's actually a shared

797
00:46:00,080 --> 00:46:04,280
Speaker 1: universe saying that he's uh, he is in fact working

798
00:46:04,320 --> 00:46:06,120
Speaker 1: for the mob, because we never get a sense of

799
00:46:06,120 --> 00:46:07,680
Speaker 1: what he does for a living to afford to take

800
00:46:07,760 --> 00:46:12,480
Speaker 1: fifteen people to France. France. Yeah, Okay, I like that

801
00:46:12,520 --> 00:46:16,759
Speaker 1: he's a sanitation, but like we do see him use

802
00:46:16,880 --> 00:46:20,960
Speaker 1: his shovel as a weapon to brutally beat the burglars.

803
00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:24,719
Speaker 1: It happens at the climax, it definitely doesn't seem like

804
00:46:24,760 --> 00:46:27,959
Speaker 1: it's his first time using his shovel like that way,

805
00:46:28,280 --> 00:46:33,200
Speaker 1: like to the point for he let's this motherfucker have it?

806
00:46:34,080 --> 00:46:36,680
Speaker 1: Like the any TV eyes would they have suffered in

807
00:46:36,719 --> 00:46:38,880
Speaker 1: the course of this film, Like if they were normal people,

808
00:46:38,960 --> 00:46:42,240
Speaker 1: Harry and Marv, right, they would add a traumatic traumatic

809
00:46:42,320 --> 00:46:44,600
Speaker 1: brain injury like from the first paint. Can I feel

810
00:46:44,640 --> 00:46:48,400
Speaker 1: like you're done? But if the if in the movie

811
00:46:48,440 --> 00:46:51,920
Speaker 1: they were like there's butcher, old man butcher Marvin. He

812
00:46:52,320 --> 00:46:54,560
Speaker 1: used a butcher knife to kill his family and then

813
00:46:54,600 --> 00:46:56,959
Speaker 1: at the end he like saves Kevin by like using

814
00:46:56,960 --> 00:46:59,239
Speaker 1: a butcher knife on the people. He'd be like, oh,

815
00:46:59,400 --> 00:47:03,000
Speaker 1: he really was the butcher knife guy. So like using

816
00:47:03,400 --> 00:47:07,360
Speaker 1: masterfully using the snow shovel and there being a rumor

817
00:47:07,480 --> 00:47:10,480
Speaker 1: that he was the snow shovel killer, but that that

818
00:47:10,560 --> 00:47:13,200
Speaker 1: that positive that the snow shovel killer was real, and

819
00:47:13,320 --> 00:47:15,399
Speaker 1: that Buzz wasn't just making it up in the first

820
00:47:15,480 --> 00:47:18,240
Speaker 1: place just to to freak out his his his cousin.

821
00:47:18,880 --> 00:47:20,960
Speaker 1: We have no evidence of this being a real crime

822
00:47:21,040 --> 00:47:24,640
Speaker 1: and this being a real you know, Monica, I'm just

823
00:47:24,680 --> 00:47:28,520
Speaker 1: putting that up. But so he he's just Buzz just

824
00:47:28,680 --> 00:47:31,160
Speaker 1: happened to guess that this was somebody who like you,

825
00:47:31,680 --> 00:47:35,879
Speaker 1: because it does seem like he's not just a guy

826
00:47:36,040 --> 00:47:39,719
Speaker 1: who happens to be shoveling snow like at that moment,

827
00:47:39,880 --> 00:47:43,000
Speaker 1: and Buzz makes it up because he's constantly he's like

828
00:47:43,280 --> 00:47:47,000
Speaker 1: a again, like a snow shovel themed batman villain, like

829
00:47:47,120 --> 00:47:49,720
Speaker 1: he always has his snow shovel with him and uses

830
00:47:49,800 --> 00:47:53,160
Speaker 1: it as a weapon throughout and also seems to be

831
00:47:53,320 --> 00:47:56,960
Speaker 1: like living in some sort of like tortured existence where

832
00:47:57,040 --> 00:48:00,759
Speaker 1: he's just like doomed to shovel snow for ever, like

833
00:48:01,320 --> 00:48:04,960
Speaker 1: almost like he was punished, being punished or putting himself

834
00:48:05,040 --> 00:48:09,719
Speaker 1: through a punishment, paying his penance to tragedy. I wish

835
00:48:09,719 --> 00:48:14,239
Speaker 1: snow shovel the links to this earth to pay my penance. Anyways,

836
00:48:14,440 --> 00:48:16,680
Speaker 1: and then and then, so here's the other thing. So

837
00:48:17,440 --> 00:48:21,000
Speaker 1: he saves this kid from two bandits who have been

838
00:48:21,560 --> 00:48:25,239
Speaker 1: like burglarizing homes throughout the neighborhood, neighborhood that this old

839
00:48:25,280 --> 00:48:27,759
Speaker 1: man lives. And for some reason, even though it's not

840
00:48:27,920 --> 00:48:31,000
Speaker 1: it's not clear, he doesn't like give off like wealthy

841
00:48:31,640 --> 00:48:34,799
Speaker 1: old you know, like retired guy vibes. He gives off

842
00:48:34,920 --> 00:48:39,960
Speaker 1: like vibes of haunted ex serial killer. But he saves him.

843
00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:44,480
Speaker 1: But then he takes the bodies of Marv and he

844
00:48:44,600 --> 00:48:47,000
Speaker 1: takes the bodies of the criminals and just leaves them

845
00:48:47,040 --> 00:48:49,400
Speaker 1: in a home and calls the police and like runs.

846
00:48:50,400 --> 00:48:55,000
Speaker 1: So it's a batman move. It's also the move of

847
00:48:55,160 --> 00:48:58,560
Speaker 1: somebody who doesn't want to attract the attention of the police,

848
00:48:58,800 --> 00:49:03,520
Speaker 1: especially you saying a weapon that he was like known

849
00:49:03,680 --> 00:49:07,320
Speaker 1: for killing somebody with. I think he's a hero. I

850
00:49:07,400 --> 00:49:09,440
Speaker 1: think he's a hero too, And I don't and I

851
00:49:09,520 --> 00:49:12,959
Speaker 1: don't care if he wants to avoid police Okay, I understand. Yeah,

852
00:49:13,880 --> 00:49:16,880
Speaker 1: I'm with him on that. I'm just saying, maybe this

853
00:49:17,120 --> 00:49:20,399
Speaker 1: is a much cooler, deeper story where this man who

854
00:49:20,480 --> 00:49:24,080
Speaker 1: committed a bunch of murders with a snow shovel was

855
00:49:24,840 --> 00:49:29,000
Speaker 1: like head has been just paying his penance by aimlessly

856
00:49:29,480 --> 00:49:34,960
Speaker 1: shoveling snow, like just everywhere snow has fallen. Just I'm sorry,

857
00:49:35,640 --> 00:49:39,200
Speaker 1: this is this is my hell until I can die.

858
00:49:39,760 --> 00:49:44,120
Speaker 1: And then he gets his penance by using the same

859
00:49:44,200 --> 00:49:47,320
Speaker 1: weapon that he used to kill his family to have

860
00:49:47,360 --> 00:49:50,799
Speaker 1: a child. We have to first presume that he did

861
00:49:50,960 --> 00:49:53,479
Speaker 1: kill the family. I think, to Nola's point, we haven't

862
00:49:53,480 --> 00:49:57,719
Speaker 1: seen any anything that corroborates buzzes accusation that this man

863
00:49:57,880 --> 00:49:59,560
Speaker 1: was involved in any kind of murder. You know that

864
00:49:59,600 --> 00:50:02,080
Speaker 1: could be You're say, you so when maybe what if

865
00:50:02,120 --> 00:50:05,640
Speaker 1: this guy is a misunderstood hero in the community and

866
00:50:05,719 --> 00:50:08,480
Speaker 1: they just intimidated by him because he doesn't look as

867
00:50:08,560 --> 00:50:12,560
Speaker 1: wealthy as other people in Winnetka, Illinois. Is there any

868
00:50:12,719 --> 00:50:15,719
Speaker 1: other mention of the South Bend shovel Slayer as being

869
00:50:15,800 --> 00:50:18,360
Speaker 1: a thing in the lore of this world or do

870
00:50:18,440 --> 00:50:21,160
Speaker 1: we just hear it from buzz that one time. I'm

871
00:50:21,160 --> 00:50:23,160
Speaker 1: pretty sure we just hear it from Buzz that one time.

872
00:50:23,200 --> 00:50:24,960
Speaker 1: It just sounds like a thing you'd make up, you know,

873
00:50:25,040 --> 00:50:27,120
Speaker 1: if you were gonna have a creepy sounding you know,

874
00:50:27,760 --> 00:50:33,000
Speaker 1: you know, plausible serious. That's very true. That's very true.

875
00:50:33,040 --> 00:50:35,160
Speaker 1: So somebody, somebody might have made it up to him.

876
00:50:35,719 --> 00:50:39,560
Speaker 1: But again, I don't know, like those those rumors. Like

877
00:50:39,680 --> 00:50:42,040
Speaker 1: we always had this dude who lived up the street

878
00:50:42,120 --> 00:50:44,160
Speaker 1: from us that our bus stop was in front of,

879
00:50:44,320 --> 00:50:47,279
Speaker 1: and we were like, man, that guy's like kind of

880
00:50:47,760 --> 00:50:50,839
Speaker 1: scary and like he was always like moving like these

881
00:50:50,920 --> 00:50:54,480
Speaker 1: big metal vets like in and out of his garage,

882
00:50:55,000 --> 00:50:57,600
Speaker 1: and we we had all these theories and like he

883
00:50:57,719 --> 00:51:00,359
Speaker 1: was a nom vet, like there was you know, wait,

884
00:51:00,640 --> 00:51:02,399
Speaker 1: and like sometimes he would come out of his house

885
00:51:02,440 --> 00:51:04,759
Speaker 1: and just start shouting at us, even though our bus

886
00:51:04,800 --> 00:51:07,319
Speaker 1: stop was there, like every day he was like get

887
00:51:07,400 --> 00:51:09,680
Speaker 1: off my wine. We're like we're I swear to God

888
00:51:09,760 --> 00:51:13,120
Speaker 1: we're here every single day and we're not. And then

889
00:51:13,239 --> 00:51:15,480
Speaker 1: like you know, we all had our theories. And then

890
00:51:15,760 --> 00:51:20,759
Speaker 1: like years later he started like sniping people's pets, like

891
00:51:20,920 --> 00:51:24,160
Speaker 1: in the neighborhood. Yeah, started like shooting people's dogs from

892
00:51:24,239 --> 00:51:29,520
Speaker 1: the So there was I'm just saying, I'm just saying

893
00:51:29,560 --> 00:51:33,640
Speaker 1: like sometimes like twelve years like sensitive to that. That's

894
00:51:33,680 --> 00:51:35,440
Speaker 1: so wild. There was a guy in my neighborhood. His

895
00:51:35,600 --> 00:51:38,880
Speaker 1: license plate was Mr Wine on his buick and you

896
00:51:39,200 --> 00:51:41,520
Speaker 1: always almost hit me and my friends on his bike.

897
00:51:41,800 --> 00:51:43,680
Speaker 1: We were on our bikes and he would always drive

898
00:51:43,800 --> 00:51:45,960
Speaker 1: like fucking recklessly around us, and we're like, yo, this

899
00:51:46,040 --> 00:51:48,719
Speaker 1: guy is a fucking like something's wrong, like he's trying

900
00:51:48,760 --> 00:51:51,680
Speaker 1: to hurt us. Turns out he was just a drunk.

901
00:51:51,840 --> 00:51:58,560
Speaker 1: He loved wine. Wine yeah like her. Yeah, We're like,

902
00:51:58,640 --> 00:52:01,400
Speaker 1: oh no, he he looks with wine. And then we

903
00:52:01,480 --> 00:52:03,440
Speaker 1: found out like he was kind of going through it

904
00:52:03,480 --> 00:52:06,120
Speaker 1: because like his wife had passed away like like three

905
00:52:06,200 --> 00:52:08,920
Speaker 1: years prior. And then like but then all those human

906
00:52:09,040 --> 00:52:11,799
Speaker 1: details only came out to me and like adulthood from

907
00:52:11,800 --> 00:52:13,200
Speaker 1: people in the neighborhood, and I was like, damn. I

908
00:52:13,239 --> 00:52:14,640
Speaker 1: just thought he was like isn't that a bit of

909
00:52:14,680 --> 00:52:16,920
Speaker 1: a red flag for cops? That plate? I mean, it

910
00:52:17,000 --> 00:52:21,719
Speaker 1: seems like Mr Wasted. Mr Wine is like plausible reasonable,

911
00:52:22,000 --> 00:52:24,120
Speaker 1: But you know what, sometimes you just want to be caught.

912
00:52:24,360 --> 00:52:25,960
Speaker 1: Sometimes you want to be put out of your misery.

913
00:52:26,000 --> 00:52:28,080
Speaker 1: And let's also say if you killed your family with

914
00:52:28,200 --> 00:52:30,919
Speaker 1: snow shovels got away with it, but then like we're

915
00:52:31,040 --> 00:52:34,680
Speaker 1: just constantly aimlessly shoveling in the back of people's yards,

916
00:52:34,760 --> 00:52:38,240
Speaker 1: like not even doing any like not even shoveling their walkway,

917
00:52:38,360 --> 00:52:41,400
Speaker 1: just randomly shoveling, and then being like what are you

918
00:52:41,440 --> 00:52:43,840
Speaker 1: looking at all? This talk of like him having some

919
00:52:44,000 --> 00:52:46,279
Speaker 1: sort of like penance that he's he's you know, having

920
00:52:46,360 --> 00:52:49,080
Speaker 1: to complete it really makes me feel like they kind

921
00:52:49,080 --> 00:52:51,200
Speaker 1: of miss an opportunity to have there be a supernatural

922
00:52:51,320 --> 00:52:54,439
Speaker 1: element like he's actually like a ghost of this guy

923
00:52:54,600 --> 00:52:58,680
Speaker 1: who aimlessly wanders the forest shoveling forever. You know, like

924
00:52:58,960 --> 00:53:00,840
Speaker 1: that would have been cool if then they could have

925
00:53:00,880 --> 00:53:02,960
Speaker 1: done it for the pigeon lady. And in part two too,

926
00:53:03,000 --> 00:53:05,480
Speaker 1: that could have been like this ghost of Christmas whatever

927
00:53:05,640 --> 00:53:08,279
Speaker 1: kind of situation yea, Or is it like why are

928
00:53:08,320 --> 00:53:11,880
Speaker 1: these people always like borderline like unhoused? Yeah, you know

929
00:53:12,040 --> 00:53:13,719
Speaker 1: that that'd be like saving is there? Like because I

930
00:53:13,800 --> 00:53:17,080
Speaker 1: think always the sort of the weird kid messages like

931
00:53:17,400 --> 00:53:19,920
Speaker 1: just because they're all like unkempt and stuff doesn't mean

932
00:53:19,960 --> 00:53:22,080
Speaker 1: they're nasty. In fact, they might be the homie and

933
00:53:22,160 --> 00:53:25,399
Speaker 1: like like help you out. But there isn't much other

934
00:53:25,520 --> 00:53:29,960
Speaker 1: humanization offered to them aside from that, and they came through.

935
00:53:30,160 --> 00:53:32,640
Speaker 1: It's in like tuns, it's all over the place. That's like,

936
00:53:32,800 --> 00:53:34,600
Speaker 1: you know, don't judge a book by its cover, or

937
00:53:34,600 --> 00:53:37,160
Speaker 1: a kind of situation where there's the creepy person and

938
00:53:37,239 --> 00:53:39,200
Speaker 1: then you grow to realize they're just like me and

939
00:53:39,280 --> 00:53:41,640

Speaker 1: was a NEPO baby, people would literally never see your

964
00:54:53,840 --> 00:54:56,640

Speaker 1: more bears in our Christmas movies. That's what we actually want,

1005
00:57:15,960 --> 00:57:18,480
Speaker 1: because that's what we're doing. We're hibernating like bears, and

1006
00:57:18,600 --> 00:57:22,240
Speaker 1: also we're hiding from bears, and so we just need

1007
00:57:22,320 --> 00:57:26,320
Speaker 1: more bears in our Christmas movies, more trumpy bears. You

Speaker 1: see Kirk Cousins of the NFL Kirk Cousins of the NFL.

1010
00:57:37,080 --> 00:57:40,120
Speaker 1: Cousins is asked the question can someone explained to me

1011
00:57:40,240 --> 00:57:44,040
Speaker 1: the difference between these three brands, l L Being, lands

1012
00:57:44,200 --> 00:57:48,160
Speaker 1: End and Eddie Bauer and I it was at that

1013
00:57:48,360 --> 00:57:51,880
Speaker 1: moment that I realized those were three separate brands. They

1014
00:57:51,920 --> 00:57:54,760
Speaker 1: had all occupied the same brand in my brain prior

1015
00:57:54,880 --> 00:57:58,080
Speaker 1: to that tweet at least LLL Being and Land's End did.

1016
00:57:58,440 --> 00:58:00,800
Speaker 1: So is it ll be the one that you could

1017
00:58:00,800 --> 00:58:03,160
Speaker 1: do unlimited returns? I don't know. They had to. They

1018
00:58:03,200 --> 00:58:05,960
Speaker 1: had to start, like because their their products are like

1019
00:58:06,000 --> 00:58:08,520
Speaker 1: guaranteed for life, so if they start wearing down, like

1020
00:58:08,640 --> 00:58:13,600
Speaker 1: you can go and like they exchange it, right, No, no, no,

1021
00:58:13,920 --> 00:58:16,720
Speaker 1: And I think it was like where I think there's

1022
00:58:16,760 --> 00:58:18,920
Speaker 1: like a this American life story too. Or then eventually

1023
00:58:18,960 --> 00:58:21,320
Speaker 1: they had to like pull back the policy because people

1024
00:58:21,360 --> 00:58:25,720
Speaker 1: were just you know, taking advantage of it. Anyway, great
