1
00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:01,160
Speaker 1: Hey, bananimals.

2
00:00:02,680 --> 00:00:06,920
Speaker 2: We think of bananas as an escape, a silly little

3
00:00:06,920 --> 00:00:10,760
Speaker 2: thing to take your mind off of it, but unfortunately,

4
00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:16,360
Speaker 2: sometimes the world intrudes on our escape. Before we get

5
00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:19,079
Speaker 2: to this episode, we want to take a moment to

6
00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:22,279
Speaker 2: address the June twenty fourth, twenty twenty two Supreme Court

7
00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:26,640
Speaker 2: decision to overturn Roe versus Wade. This decision stripped away

8
00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:30,320
Speaker 2: the right to have a safe and legal abortion. Everyone

9
00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:33,440
Speaker 2: should have the freedom to decide what's best for themselves

10
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:37,200
Speaker 2: and their families, including when it comes to ending a pregnancy.

11
00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:42,280
Speaker 2: This decision has dire consequences for individual health and safety,

12
00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:47,120
Speaker 2: and could have harsh repercussions for other landmark decisions. Restricting

13
00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:52,000
Speaker 2: access to comprehensive reproductive care, including abortion, threatens the health

14
00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:56,880
Speaker 2: and independence of all Americans. Learn more by visiting Choice

Speaker 7: I found it on Craigslist or actually not, Natalie Pealmidus

102
00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:30,680
Speaker 7: and I were making something together who I know was

103
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:34,880
Speaker 7: on your podcast, and I found it on Craigslist, bought

104
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:38,080
Speaker 7: it for like three hundred bucks, used it for a shoot.

105
00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:39,760
Speaker 6: And then I had remembered a.

106
00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:43,360
Speaker 7: Long time ago that Scotti had mentioned wanting to put

107
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:45,640
Speaker 7: a slide off the back deck. So it was like,

108
00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:47,440
Speaker 7: what are we going to do with the slide? And

109
00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:50,040
Speaker 7: I said, I have just the person to call.

110
00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:53,520
Speaker 2: Did you did you strap the slide to the roof

111
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:55,440
Speaker 2: of your car or do you have like a pickup truck?

112
00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:57,359
Speaker 1: How did you even get the slide to Scotty?

113
00:05:57,680 --> 00:05:58,080
Speaker 6: Somebody?

114
00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:02,200
Speaker 7: Somebody delivered it right, Yeah, we had like production trucks luckily.

115
00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:03,600
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, yeah, So.

116
00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:05,800
Speaker 7: I didn't have to I didn't have to figure all

117
00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:08,640
Speaker 7: that out, but I did know the guy to give

118
00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:08,800
Speaker 7: it to.

119
00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:12,520
Speaker 6: And I'm really happy that it's there now. I would

120
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:12,960
Speaker 6: love to do it.

121
00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:17,039
Speaker 3: Also, when Courtney brought it over, it's a fourteen foot slide,

122
00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:20,599
Speaker 3: so it's pretty long, and my deck is really high

123
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:23,280
Speaker 3: in the air. But like when we came over and

124
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:25,159
Speaker 3: like rested it on the deck, it's like our trial.

125
00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:28,440
Speaker 3: It's so perfect. It was like Cinderella's glass slipper. I

126
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:32,080
Speaker 3: was like everything came together. And that's just how well

127
00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:35,719
Speaker 3: Courtney knows me. How's your summer been? Everything wonderful in

Speaker 6: I'll take it. I will take it.

131
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:45,920
Speaker 7: I told Scotty this already, but I just I took a.

132
00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:48,000
Speaker 6: Quick trip to New York one night.

133
00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:51,680
Speaker 7: I randomly picked a hotel that was close to the

134
00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:54,839
Speaker 7: venue I was seeing show at. And it turns out

135
00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:58,000
Speaker 7: that the hotel was the building that I lived in,

136
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:02,440
Speaker 7: not with Scottie, but inte were little rooms when we

137
00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:05,200
Speaker 7: went to acting school together in two thousand and four.

138
00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:08,360
Speaker 2: Random two thousand and four, Oh my god, I didn't

143
00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:22,960

00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:28,200
Speaker 2: in Australia and a small mouselike creature called in Antickonus.

161
00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:29,960
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with Antickonus.

162
00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:34,880
Speaker 2: And if it's not Antichonus, it's maybe Antechinus is busy

163
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:39,760
Speaker 2: killing himself through sex. He was a virgin until now,

164
00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:43,560
Speaker 2: But for two to three weeks, this little lothario goes

165
00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:46,800
Speaker 2: at it NonStop. He mates with as many females as

166
00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:50,480
Speaker 2: he can in violent, frenetic encounters that can reach last

167
00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:55,400
Speaker 2: up to fourteen hours. Wow, what he does little else.

168
00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 2: A month ago he irreversibly stopped making sperm, so he's

169
00:08:59,880 --> 00:09:03,360
Speaker 2: got all that he will ever have. This burst of

170
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:06,240
Speaker 2: speed mating is his one chance to pass his genes

171
00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:09,080
Speaker 2: on to the next generation, and he will die trying.

172
00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:13,040
Speaker 2: He exhausts himself so thoroughly. I like that Ed has

173
00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:18,079
Speaker 2: decided to personify the entire species as one one gentleman

174
00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:22,080
Speaker 2: and techanists who looks like an antechonist looks like a mouse.

175
00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:24,920
Speaker 2: It looks like a small mouse.

176
00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:27,360
Speaker 3: I don't know if we did this one or not,

177
00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:29,480
Speaker 3: but I'm willing to go all the way in and

178
00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:29,960
Speaker 3: keep going.

179
00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:33,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, I feel like we did do one that was

180
00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:34,280
Speaker 1: a hamster.

181
00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:37,400
Speaker 3: That like, yeah, death, Sure.

182
00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:40,120
Speaker 2: I don't I don't remember the specifics of this, that's why.

183
00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:41,880
Speaker 3: But hey, the truth finds a way.

184
00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:44,320
Speaker 2: I did ask and we didn't have a record of

185
00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:45,640
Speaker 2: doing this, so that's fine.

186
00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:49,119
Speaker 1: Here it is, this burst.

187
00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:50,800
Speaker 2: Of speed mating is his one chance to pass his

188
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:52,079
Speaker 2: jeans onto the next generation.

189
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:53,080
Speaker 1: He will die trying.

190
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:56,760
Speaker 2: He exhausts himself so thoroughly that his body starts to

191
00:09:56,920 --> 00:10:02,720
Speaker 2: fall apart his blood core says with testosterone stress hormones.

192
00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:07,000
Speaker 2: His fur falls off, he bleeds internally, his immune system

193
00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:10,840
Speaker 2: fails to fight off incoming infections, and he becomes riddled

194
00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:15,400
Speaker 2: with gangreen. He's a complete mess, but he's still after sex.

195
00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:16,280
Speaker 1: Quote.

196
00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:20,360
Speaker 2: By the end of the mating season, physically disintegrating males

197
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:24,720
Speaker 2: may run around frantically searching for last mating opportunities, says

198
00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:28,199
Speaker 2: Diana Fisher from the University of Queensland. By that time,

199
00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:35,400
Speaker 2: females are not surprisingly avoiding that soon it's all over.

200
00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:39,000
Speaker 2: A few weeks shy of his first birthday, he is dead,

201
00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:43,280
Speaker 2: along with every other male and techanists in the area.

202
00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:47,599
Speaker 2: The technical term for this is semil parody from the

203
00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:52,720
Speaker 2: Latin words for to beget once. For semilparois animals from

204
00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:55,360
Speaker 2: salmon to mayflies, sex is a once in a lifetime

205
00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:59,600
Speaker 2: and affair, and usually a fatal one. Scotti has yet

206
00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:03,360
Speaker 2: to have. I can't wait when you decide to do.

207
00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:06,240
Speaker 3: It, saving it for my wedding night, and then it'll

208
00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:07,400
Speaker 3: be my funeral the next day.

209
00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:08,679
Speaker 1: I'm called Scott.

210
00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:11,559
Speaker 2: He's getting married at eighty five, dining at eighty five.

211
00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:17,480
Speaker 2: This practice is common among many animal groups, but rare

212
00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:20,160
Speaker 2: among mammals. You only see it in the twelve species

213
00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:23,440
Speaker 2: of antickonuses and a futures relatives, all of which are

214
00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:26,800
Speaker 2: small insect eating marsupials. Although they look like rodents in

215
00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:31,160
Speaker 2: our colloquial called marsupial mice and technics are more closely

216
00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:34,040
Speaker 2: related to kangaroos and koalas than to mice or rats.

217
00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:37,880
Speaker 2: Who Knew Why question mark Why do these marsupials practice

218
00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:41,360
Speaker 2: suicidal reproduction? And why are they the only mammals that

219
00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:45,280
Speaker 2: do so? The question has vexed biologists for three decades,

220
00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:48,120
Speaker 2: and many have offered answers. Some say the females don't

221
00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:50,480
Speaker 2: survive very well after breeding, so males are forced to

222
00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:52,760
Speaker 2: hetch their bets by mating with as many as possible.

223
00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:54,840
Speaker 1: Others suggest that it's just a feature.

224
00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:57,760
Speaker 3: Of the group. I love that.

225
00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:02,679
Speaker 2: That's a scientist being like meybe. It's just because yeah,

226
00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:03,480
Speaker 2: we don't know.

227
00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:06,720
Speaker 6: I think it's poetic, beautiful.

228
00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:12,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a life of meaning. They have purpose and meaning.

229
00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:14,440
Speaker 3: I think so many people in this world are searching

230
00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:16,840
Speaker 3: for purpose and meaning, and these weird little rodents have

231
00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:19,200
Speaker 3: found it. It is just to go and go and

232
00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:20,800
Speaker 3: go until your limbs fall off.

233
00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:23,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, and just once a year.

234
00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:23,960
Speaker 3: And that.

235
00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:26,680
Speaker 2: This is of course a national geographic article, so it

236
00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:31,360
Speaker 2: is incredibly long and gets into a lot of specifics

237
00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:32,840
Speaker 2: about this tiny animal.

238
00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:37,000
Speaker 1: We don't need that, and I don't need any more detail.

239
00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:42,960
Speaker 3: That's pretty good. That's not bad at all.

240
00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:45,920
Speaker 1: I love this little guy. I love them so much.

241
00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:46,680
Speaker 1: I'm proud of the.

242
00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:49,439
Speaker 3: One time I was seeing Montreal once with a group

243
00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:53,040
Speaker 3: of WIMPs and we were all walking around Montreal and

244
00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:56,640
Speaker 3: we were walking by like a gentleman's club and it

245
00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:59,800
Speaker 3: said like twenty for twenty shots, twenty shots for twenty

246
00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:03,880
Speaker 3: and so it was like seven or eight of us

247
00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:06,640
Speaker 3: and we were like, let's go, and we go in

248
00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:10,560
Speaker 3: and it was the strangest group of like men in

249
00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:13,760
Speaker 3: a strip club that you could ever imagine. One guy

250
00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:16,319
Speaker 3: furious the whole time, hated being there, did not want

251
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:18,560
Speaker 3: to be there, like sat down arms cross facing away

252
00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:22,440
Speaker 3: from us and all the performers. Another guy who just

253
00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:25,880
Speaker 3: sat there and kept telling the dancers that our friend

254
00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:28,520
Speaker 3: would have a baby with anybody that wanted one, that

255
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:31,560
Speaker 3: they were just looking for surrogates basically. And then the

256
00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:35,040
Speaker 3: rest of us are just buying twenty dollars rounds of shots.

257
00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:37,360
Speaker 3: But when they were coming out, so we bought eighty shots.

258
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:41,520
Speaker 3: And kidding me, we so were sitting there and my

259
00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:44,080
Speaker 3: one friend Bryce, who had never ever been in a

260
00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:46,240
Speaker 3: gentleman's club and it never had a lap dance before,

261
00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:48,319
Speaker 3: they almost like targeted him with They're like, hey, come

262
00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:50,400
Speaker 3: on back for a dance, So we forgot he existed,

263
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:52,440
Speaker 3: and the rest of us stood around this table with

264
00:13:52,520 --> 00:13:55,120
Speaker 3: eighty shots, and we realized that it was ninety eight

265
00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:59,240
Speaker 3: percent cranberry juice with like a teardrop of vodka. Yeah,

266
00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:02,000
Speaker 3: of course it became a race who could drink the

267
00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:05,920
Speaker 3: most humanly possible. So it's like five grown men, one

268
00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:08,400
Speaker 3: pissed off guy, one guy saying they don't pray, and

269
00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:11,560
Speaker 3: everybody and then my other buddy just getting like a

270
00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:14,040
Speaker 3: five or six song lap dance where you pay per song,

271
00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:15,880
Speaker 3: and he didn't know that, so we were like, oh

272
00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:18,160
Speaker 3: my god, he had no idea. So then we order

273
00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:20,720
Speaker 3: eighty more and we're just hammering these down. We're reaching

274
00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:22,400
Speaker 3: over each other. It was like whack them ole. We're

275
00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:24,280
Speaker 3: just grabbing these shots and shooting them and all the

276
00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:29,120
Speaker 3: dancers are like, don't spend money on the shoe losers,

277
00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:32,640
Speaker 3: tip us dollars and we're like too busy, and we all.

278
00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:34,960
Speaker 3: I ran into two of the guys not long like

279
00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:37,320
Speaker 3: two months ago, and I was like, do you remember that,

280
00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:39,600
Speaker 3: and my one buddy goes. I woke up the next morning.

281
00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:43,040
Speaker 3: I've never felt so good in my entire life. No hangover,

282
00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:47,840
Speaker 3: fully hydrated so much monument See, none of us caught

283
00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:49,880
Speaker 3: a buzz. But yeah, we had to like spot my

284
00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:51,800
Speaker 3: friend like four or five hundred dollars for the lap

285
00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:53,840
Speaker 3: dances because he just thought they were like part of

286
00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:58,600
Speaker 3: the entering the car. Oh no, yeah, it was very funny.

287
00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:02,160
Speaker 3: And yeah, we just did one hundred and sixty shots

288
00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:05,360
Speaker 3: of cranberry juice between five guys in about fifteen minutes,

289
00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:10,760
Speaker 3: while just the entire staffor.

290
00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:13,360
Speaker 2: I also love that they are called Gentlemen's club, like

291
00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:15,720
Speaker 2: it's such an it's and it's not supposed to be

292
00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:16,840
Speaker 2: an ironic name.

293
00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:21,240
Speaker 1: It's not like, oh, yes, only gentleman's are here.

294
00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:25,440
Speaker 3: Yes, but we have the great one in between all

295
00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:27,760
Speaker 3: of us in Jumbo's Clown Room, which is such a

296
00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:30,280
Speaker 3: fun Oh yeah, legendary.

297
00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:34,120
Speaker 6: It's my neighborhood bar. I lived down the street. Oh

298
00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:36,680
Speaker 6: you don't, yeah, I live. I mean, I don't want

299
00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:37,560
Speaker 6: to get too specific.

300
00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:42,840
Speaker 7: Yeah, don't get Yeah, it's very.

301
00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:45,640
Speaker 6: It's a very excellent. It's my favorite place in bar

302
00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:46,280
Speaker 6: in Hollywood.

303
00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:49,040
Speaker 3: I think it really is fun and for those two.

304
00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:51,280
Speaker 3: I don't know if we've ever mentioned it on Bananas before,

305
00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:53,680
Speaker 3: but it's like a bikini bar. Nobody gets fully naked,

306
00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:57,120
Speaker 3: and the people, the dancers that come out are actually

307
00:15:57,280 --> 00:15:59,680
Speaker 3: really fun. There was a viral story about four or

308
00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:01,400
Speaker 3: five years ago of a woman that just came out

309
00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:05,200
Speaker 3: ate entire cheese pizza and everybody cheered her own wildly.

310
00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:07,600
Speaker 3: So she didn't really strip or anything. She just ate

311
00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:10,240
Speaker 3: a whole pizza. And that's the spirit. And like Pauli

312
00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:12,880
Speaker 3: Shore comes in once a week and throws like eighty

313
00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:15,080
Speaker 3: dollars in singles and they go Hi, Paulie and then

314
00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:16,000
Speaker 3: he walks out the door.

315
00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:17,200
Speaker 6: It's so fun.

316
00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:21,680
Speaker 7: I mean, I do have I have dreams of working there,

317
00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:26,080
Speaker 7: but I you know, I'm too shy at the end

318
00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:29,080
Speaker 7: of the bit. But they're amazing. I like that some

319
00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:32,120
Speaker 7: of them are so athletic. Some of the girls are

320
00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:33,640
Speaker 7: just like more like performative.

321
00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:36,280
Speaker 2: I think there was a hot tub. We used to

322
00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:41,560
Speaker 2: do hot tub during the pandemic on zoom or like

323
00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:44,800
Speaker 2: over zoom for people to watch. And Courtney, you had

324
00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:47,440
Speaker 2: a bit that you did. Oh where it started. I

325
00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:50,760
Speaker 2: think you were in the top of your closet, so

326
00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:55,120
Speaker 2: it was like a sliding door and then it opened up,

327
00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:57,920
Speaker 2: so it opens on this room and there's a pole.

328
00:16:58,040 --> 00:16:59,480
Speaker 1: There's a pole in the middle of the room.

329
00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:02,840
Speaker 2: And then the door opens and you jumped from the

330
00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:05,000
Speaker 2: top of your closet onto the hole.

331
00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:08,000
Speaker 7: I can't remember exactly the order of things, but yeah,

332
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:10,400
Speaker 7: I sort of made I have like a little studio apartment,

333
00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:12,800
Speaker 7: and I made a little labyrinth out of it. So

334
00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:14,840
Speaker 7: I did I got like a little I got a

335
00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:16,919
Speaker 7: I gotta have a pole in my apartment where like

336
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:20,640
Speaker 7: a table for eating should be. But you know, it's

337
00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:22,640
Speaker 7: nice to have an activity, you.

338
00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:25,600
Speaker 6: Know, especially when you're when you're trapped, you're trapped inside.

339
00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:27,399
Speaker 7: Yeah, and then I had I cleared out my like

340
00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:30,320
Speaker 7: top closet so I could like crawl around it.

341
00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:32,480
Speaker 6: The funny thing this was like in May, like.

342
00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:35,040
Speaker 7: After the pandemic started, and my ad bit was already

343
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:37,520
Speaker 7: like about like that, I was like going crazy, like I.

344
00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:40,280
Speaker 6: Had like like the days.

345
00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:42,240
Speaker 7: Counted like in blood on my like wall, which I

346
00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:45,359
Speaker 7: just like washed off, and I think about it, I'm like,

347
00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:48,080
Speaker 7: that was not that long that.

348
00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:49,880
Speaker 6: I'm like, yeah, crowd be crazy.

349
00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:53,399
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was like fifty five days in yeah.

350
00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:55,720
Speaker 7: Yeah, but I like, yeah, I'd used like the little

351
00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:59,040
Speaker 7: zoom screen to make like a window, and I had

352
00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:01,600
Speaker 7: like a friend like throwing books and stuff like around

353
00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:02,000
Speaker 7: the room.

354
00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:04,600
Speaker 6: It jumps on my bed. Yeah.

355
00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:07,680
Speaker 3: I watched that live and the and not only was

356
00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:09,280
Speaker 3: all of it great, but the end was so great

357
00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:11,400
Speaker 3: because then you just kind of left screen and then

358
00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:13,879
Speaker 3: Kurt Kristen didn't know if it was over where We're like,

359
00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:15,000
Speaker 3: I guess, oh yeah.

360
00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:17,720
Speaker 7: Because like my luckily it was like a physical bit

361
00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:20,240
Speaker 7: because I think my sound wasn't working for like most

362
00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:20,840
Speaker 7: of the time.

363
00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:25,240
Speaker 6: Well you know, you know, we're trying stuff. Thanks for having.

364
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:31,480
Speaker 2: Me and then Scotty would be in the Twitch room

370
00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:53,440

378
00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:20,320
Speaker 3: British words in it. British bachelor party gets stranded in Amsterdam,

388
00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:55,359
Speaker 3: took thirteen of his friends to the Dutch capitol on

389
00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:58,840
Speaker 3: Thursday and spent two days boozing, probably doing a lot

390
00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:02,320
Speaker 3: of marijuana and seeing the sights. The lads were supposed

391
00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:06,200
Speaker 3: to fly home to Gatwick on Saturday, and they arrived

392
00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:09,040
Speaker 3: at the ship Poll Airport five hours before they were

393
00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:11,920
Speaker 3: supposed to take off. These are responsible guys, they really are.

394
00:20:12,119 --> 00:20:17,520
Speaker 3: These guys are doing sixty sue and they feel good

395
00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:20,160
Speaker 3: the next day. They haven't been six since. But their

396
00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:23,000
Speaker 3: easy Jet flight was canceled last minute, forcing them all

397
00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:24,800
Speaker 3: to come up with other ways to get home to

398
00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:28,600
Speaker 3: West Sussex, to Worthing, West Sussex. They decided to hop

399
00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:32,040
Speaker 3: a train to Calais, France, and they hop and then

400
00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:34,399
Speaker 3: hop on a ferry back to Dorset. Okay, so some

401
00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:36,160
Speaker 3: people in Europe know what the hell we're talking about.

402
00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:37,600
Speaker 3: They're going to take a train to France and take

403
00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:42,480
Speaker 3: a ferry to English on their way, the guys discovered

404
00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:44,879
Speaker 3: a health and safety rule that said people are not

405
00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:49,840
Speaker 3: allowed to board the ferry on foot, but bicyclists are. Wow,

406
00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:53,400
Speaker 3: this feels like an adventure. This feels so you. When

407
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:55,359
Speaker 3: I read this, I was like, this is the most

408
00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:59,600
Speaker 3: curdib story. Yes, and me too. For two, this is

409
00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:02,280
Speaker 3: what we're We've all spent time in Edinburgh. We know

410
00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:06,479
Speaker 3: how to just make things happen. Luckily, the group were

411
00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:09,919
Speaker 3: stopping over in Brussels, Belgium. Blah blah blah. They frantically

412
00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:12,600
Speaker 3: looked for bicycles to buy, and in a few hours,

413
00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:16,600
Speaker 3: thirteen of the fourteen men had bartered at secondhand shops

414
00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:20,080
Speaker 3: and search Facebook marketplace for good deals. Like I said,

415
00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:21,720
Speaker 3: all but one managed to get a bike by the

416
00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:24,600
Speaker 3: time they finished their stopover, and keeping with the theme

417
00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:28,600
Speaker 3: of the trip, they ran into another challenge. They discovered

418
00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:32,000
Speaker 3: the train taking them to Calay only allowed passengers to

419
00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:37,040
Speaker 3: bring fold up bicycles. So they just bought thirteen bikes

420
00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:39,080
Speaker 3: like three hours and then now they have to get

421
00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:43,960
Speaker 3: folding bikes. So their friends Hurdley had to find taxis

422
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:46,679
Speaker 3: to get them to their ferry. Blah blah blah. So

423
00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:50,120
Speaker 3: they take taxis. They take these bikes. The guys arrived

424
00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:52,480
Speaker 3: one hour to spare manage to make their boat. The

425
00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:55,120
Speaker 3: fourteenth lad who had not managed to get a bike sorright,

426
00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:58,120
Speaker 3: I'm so confused. So they bought their bikes, and then

427
00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:02,760
Speaker 3: they went and exchanged their bikes for folding bikes. Some did,

428
00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:05,640
Speaker 3: so they got on they fuck it. Yeah no, Then

429
00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:08,000
Speaker 3: they just got a taxi instead because they couldn't get

430
00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:12,480
Speaker 3: enough folding bikes, so they just bypassed the train, get

431
00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:13,120
Speaker 3: in taxis.

432
00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:16,920
Speaker 2: They take a train to France. I mean, they take

433
00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:18,160
Speaker 2: a taxi to France.

434
00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:20,000
Speaker 3: They take a taxi.

435
00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:23,440
Speaker 1: They're in front. Yeah, yeah, no, they're in Brussels.

436
00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:28,360
Speaker 2: So they take a taxi from Belgium to France to where.

437
00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:34,880
Speaker 3: They's looking like tola yay, okay, I don't okay okay.

438
00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:38,119
Speaker 1: And so they took a taxi. What did the what

439
00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:39,600
Speaker 1: did they do with the bikes they put.

440
00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:41,439
Speaker 3: They went to the ferry, So now they got to

441
00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:42,879
Speaker 3: the Oh yeah, I don't know. They don't have the

442
00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:45,360
Speaker 3: detail of how they got the bikes in the taxis.

443
00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:47,040
Speaker 1: I'm going to revoke best in the biz.

444
00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:51,600
Speaker 2: Then I don't understand the basic logistics of this story.

445
00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:53,920
Speaker 1: Did they take it? They never took a train, they

446
00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:56,200
Speaker 1: took a taxi. I don't understand how all right?

447
00:22:56,640 --> 00:22:59,280
Speaker 3: You know what? You're right? You're right? They yeah, they

448
00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:02,359
Speaker 3: got off, Yeah, you're right. It doesn't say anything about

449
00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:05,560
Speaker 3: how they got thirteen bikes and thirteen guys to this

450
00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:08,959
Speaker 3: ferry station, but they did see. For this is the

451
00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:12,400
Speaker 3: best detailed the whole thing. The fourteenth lad, the guy

452
00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:14,520
Speaker 3: who could not figure out how to get a bike

453
00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:17,399
Speaker 3: in that time, convinced a couple to let that let

454
00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:19,200
Speaker 3: him sit in the back of their car for the fair.

455
00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:25,080
Speaker 3: What a beautiful experience. They're a throuple now they should be.

456
00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:28,320
Speaker 3: They all made it back to the UK by Sunday morning,

457
00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:32,640
Speaker 3: albeit very exhausted. Looking back, Alex said, who I think

458
00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:35,520
Speaker 3: is the groom? The experience was stressful and like something

459
00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:38,520
Speaker 3: from a top Gear challenge. How British can you get?

460
00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:40,919
Speaker 3: But it was so much fun and brilliant story that

461
00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:42,760
Speaker 3: we'll be telling it at the wedding and hopefully to

462
00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:47,119
Speaker 3: my kids and their kids. Calm down, easy, jet on there.

463
00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:52,040
Speaker 1: This is the final the final generation. There's no one exactly.

464
00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:56,280
Speaker 3: What are you thinking, We're running out of everything. Don't

465
00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:58,880
Speaker 3: sell those bikes yet. You might need to ride them

466
00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:02,240
Speaker 3: with the Southern Hemisphere. Okay, easy Jet apologize and said

467
00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:07,800
Speaker 3: it intends to reimburst them all for quote any reasonable expenses.

468
00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:10,560
Speaker 3: They're going to give him twenty five pounds. Yeah, you

469
00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:13,640
Speaker 3: know it. Oh my god, what an adventure.

470
00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:15,240
Speaker 1: I once rode a bike.

471
00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:20,919
Speaker 2: I once rode a bike from Brooklyn to Connecticut. And

472
00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:23,880
Speaker 2: I think it was thirty five miles. That's the farthest

473
00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:29,040
Speaker 2: I've ever ridden a bike. And it was it was brutal.

474
00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:31,920
Speaker 2: Thirty five miles was brutal. Having not been like someone

475
00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:34,399
Speaker 2: who trains on bikes and does it like I just

476
00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:36,040
Speaker 2: like out of the blue is like I'm just riding

477
00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:36,960
Speaker 2: my bike to Connecticut.

478
00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:40,000
Speaker 1: Uh, And it was like real, it was not fun.

479
00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:42,320
Speaker 2: I would not but I love a long bike ride,

480
00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:43,600
Speaker 2: especially if you trained for it.

481
00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:45,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's I.

482
00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:45,840

Speaker 6: Yeah.

487
00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:59,480
Speaker 7: I shot something where I had to wear rollerblades this

488
00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:01,760
Speaker 7: weekend and I haven't worn them since I was like

489
00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:02,639
Speaker 7: ten years old.

490
00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:05,760
Speaker 6: And I did pretty good. And I think with a

491
00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:06,920
Speaker 6: little practice.

492
00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:08,919
Speaker 7: I could do I could do even better. But but

493
00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:11,119
Speaker 7: I but I want to like be able to do like,

494
00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:13,400
Speaker 7: you know, distant stuff.

495
00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:14,080
Speaker 3: I don't know.

496
00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:16,320
Speaker 6: Yeah for the old quad.

497
00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:18,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's good for everything.

498
00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:19,040
Speaker 6: Yeah.

499
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:22,240
Speaker 3: Do you envision yourself like going to the West Side

500
00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:25,679
Speaker 3: and going down Santa Monica and skateboarding along the ocean

501
00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:28,440
Speaker 3: like the Bard. Yeah, yeah, that's.

502
00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:30,760
Speaker 6: Yes, that's what that's the vision for sure.

503
00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:33,520
Speaker 2: And you definitely want to do roller blades and not

504
00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:34,560
Speaker 2: roller skates.

505
00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:37,760
Speaker 7: Well, I I learned on the blade, you know, like

506
00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:40,360
Speaker 7: I was like street hockey kids, so the in I'm

507
00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:42,199
Speaker 7: a blader. So when I when I go to like

508
00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:44,960
Speaker 7: a roller rank, you know, like it's a different balance,

509
00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:50,040
Speaker 7: I don't it doesn't activate that like fourth grade muscle.

510
00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:52,440
Speaker 6: Memory and joy the same as like a blade.

511
00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:58,360
Speaker 1: So yeah, fascinating. I've been following these like roller skaters

512
00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:00,520
Speaker 1: on Instagram.

513
00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:05,639
Speaker 2: That cool are just roller skating in halfpipes and like

514
00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:12,120
Speaker 2: at skate parks and doing flips. They're crazy, insane. I've

515
00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:14,920
Speaker 2: never seen anything like it. Like when they're going up,

516
00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:18,600
Speaker 2: they're like their legs go out for like more balance

517
00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:21,800
Speaker 2: and then doing a full flip and then landing vertically

518
00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:22,960
Speaker 2: and then coming back down.

519
00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:24,200
Speaker 1: It's insane.

520
00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:28,280
Speaker 2: I think space goes Kate is one anyway anyway, so

521
00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:30,080
Speaker 2: I'm gonna check that out.

522
00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:33,840
Speaker 7: I have like a deep admiration for like human tricks

523
00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:38,359
Speaker 7: like that, and I don't have as many as I'd like,

524
00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:39,640
Speaker 7: but I pursue them for sure.

525
00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:43,679
Speaker 3: It's so fun to go out to Venice Beach. Anybody

526
00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:45,760
Speaker 3: who hasn't been to Venice Beach. Venice Beach is sort

527
00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:48,800
Speaker 3: of like this chaotic place. A Coney Island in Brooklyn

528
00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:51,080
Speaker 3: has similar vibes, but it's just like there are tons

529
00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:54,919
Speaker 3: of performers. There's like confused tourists. There's people walking on glass,

530
00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:57,840
Speaker 3: there's four or five people holding giant bulk and pose with.

531
00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:01,560
Speaker 3: There's people playing guitars poorly. There's people playing guitar as well.

532
00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:04,040
Speaker 3: But there's like it's this great thing because there's parts

533
00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:06,240
Speaker 3: of it that are still stuck in the nineteen eighties,

534
00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:09,720
Speaker 3: so hard. Like there's Muscle Beach where like bodybuilders and

535
00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:12,399
Speaker 3: people like Arnold Schutzenegger used to like get roided up

536
00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:14,480
Speaker 3: and work out on the beach. But then in the

537
00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:17,240
Speaker 3: middle near the there's a big half pipe that's really cool.

538
00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:20,480
Speaker 3: But near there there's a flat sort of black top

539
00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:22,960
Speaker 3: circle right in the middle of the palm trees right

540
00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:27,399
Speaker 3: off the boardwalk, and there's like forty fifty, sixty seventy

541
00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:30,520
Speaker 3: year old people who put out a stereo and just

542
00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:33,480
Speaker 3: roller skate and they do that roller skating dancing that

543
00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:36,639
Speaker 3: was so like popular in the eighties, and it's really

544
00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:38,640
Speaker 3: only for them. Like I saw a young woman tried,

545
00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:40,359
Speaker 3: like a twenty something go out there once and they

546
00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:41,960
Speaker 3: were kind of they didn't say anything, but they all

547
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:44,080
Speaker 3: sort of just like did their stuff together and left

548
00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:48,080
Speaker 3: on the outside. It's it's like the craziest thing. That's like,

549
00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:50,199
Speaker 3: I'm gonna go work out. They put on roller skates

550
00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:52,800
Speaker 3: and for three and a half hours in the middle

551
00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:55,120
Speaker 3: of a sunny day, they just danced like George Benson,

552
00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:58,120
Speaker 3: just like hey, now, it's so fucking cool.

553
00:27:58,240 --> 00:27:58,679
Speaker 6: I love it.

554
00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:02,119
Speaker 7: Well, there's that one guy who skates and plays guitar.

555
00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:04,280
Speaker 7: What's his name, like Karma, cause I don't know. I

556
00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:08,560
Speaker 7: have one of his t shirts that and it's he's cool.

557
00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:09,280
Speaker 7: He's a legend.

558
00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:13,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I just love that. It's stuck in the eighties.

559
00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:15,800
Speaker 3: Anybody comes out to California, come on out, go to

560
00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:18,840
Speaker 3: Venice Beach, go find the old roller skaters. Tell them

561
00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:19,560
Speaker 3: the Banana Boys.

562
00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:21,960
Speaker 7: They'll probably and then you can go home and watch

563
00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:25,840
Speaker 7: White Men Can't Jump, because that's it.

564
00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:27,440
Speaker 6: But the great movie Fennis Beach.

565
00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:30,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, there is a guy too, and I remember I

566
00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:33,240
Speaker 2: watched the documentary on him, a sixteen minute documentary that

567
00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:34,640
Speaker 2: I just looked up while we were at chatting.

568
00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:37,439
Speaker 1: Uh, it is this dude.

569
00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:43,200
Speaker 2: His name is SlowMo and he rollerblades in Venice every

570
00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:46,840
Speaker 2: single day on one leg and he has won his

571
00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:49,360
Speaker 2: arms out and his other leg back and he.

572
00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:52,840
Speaker 1: Just goes through Vennis.

573
00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:55,480
Speaker 2: He goes to one end and then turns around and

574
00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:58,800
Speaker 2: comes back every single days.

575
00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:02,640
Speaker 1: It looks so funny. And he's a former doctor.

576
00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:05,840
Speaker 2: His name's doctor John Kitchen quit a medical career to

577
00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:10,480
Speaker 2: pursue his passion skating along the boardwalk. Oh it's San Diego.

578
00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:13,080
Speaker 2: It's actually San Diego of San Diego's.

579
00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:17,760
Speaker 3: Pacific Pacific Beach. But it just sounds like your perfect story.

580
00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:21,640
Speaker 7: I know, I might, you know, like I I don't

581
00:29:21,640 --> 00:29:22,440
Speaker 7: know what's gonna.

582
00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:27,080
Speaker 6: Happen to me, you know? Oh yeah, I mean there

583
00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:31,040
Speaker 6: are worse there were states than to to be one

584
00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:35,800
Speaker 6: of those unique people pursuing something extremely specific.

585
00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:40,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, and bringing joy. We're laughing. Kurt loves totally inspired

586
00:29:40,880 --> 00:29:41,360
Speaker 3: by them.

587
00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:44,080
Speaker 7: It's kind of like sainthood or something, you know, like

588
00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:47,680
Speaker 7: when you commit yourself to something that intensely and then

589
00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:48,880
Speaker 7: that's just what you do.

590
00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:49,240
Speaker 2: You know.

591
00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:52,040
Speaker 1: It is exactly like Sathood.

592
00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:55,560
Speaker 2: I think that that's a great way to think about it.

593
00:29:55,720 --> 00:29:59,040
Speaker 2: It's almost at a certain point, it's just after the

594
00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:03,000
Speaker 2: novelty of it wears off. It's a commitment to not

595
00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:05,320
Speaker 2: being bored doing that thing, do you know what I mean?

596
00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:08,760
Speaker 2: Trying to find Yeah, that's kind of fascinating. I like

597
00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:10,160
Speaker 2: that idea of sat.

598
00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:13,400
Speaker 3: Every cool town has like one or two local weirdos

599
00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:15,480
Speaker 3: that are a conic that you get so used to.

600
00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:17,880
Speaker 3: But if they ever stop being there, you would be devastated.

601
00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:19,880
Speaker 3: It's like, oh no, Like if slow Moo stops going

602
00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:22,000
Speaker 3: up and down past all the guys in tank tops

603
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:24,960

Speaker 2: On nine hundred and seventeen meters.

717
00:36:19,560 --> 00:36:21,120
Speaker 1: I don't know why we keep going between meters and

718
00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:21,640
Speaker 1: feet here.

719
00:36:21,560 --> 00:36:22,640
Speaker 3: Guys, I don't know either.

720
00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:26,279
Speaker 2: By contrast, Moose stands about twenty five centimeters tall. Is

00:36:26,400 --> 00:36:29,800
Speaker 2: explorers Web British because I don't like centimeters to meters

722
00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:32,160
Speaker 2: to feat shit. The UK is letting us down with

723
00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:37,400
Speaker 2: details scale to the height of an average human climbing

724
00:36:37,480 --> 00:36:40,960
Speaker 2: Mount Washington could be the equivalent of a thirteen thousand

725
00:36:41,080 --> 00:36:44,360
Speaker 2: meter climb for moose, So a thirteen thousand meter climb

726
00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:48,279
Speaker 2: would be somewhere around the what thirty nine thousand feet? Yeah?

727
00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:49,680
Speaker 1: Is that okay?

728
00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:58,160
Speaker 2: So almost to space? This rabbit hikes almost to space.

729
00:36:58,320 --> 00:37:03,239
Speaker 2: That would be how I would title right headline. She'll

730
00:37:03,520 --> 00:37:06,240
Speaker 2: she'll hop around, sit and eat, take care of herself,

731
00:37:06,320 --> 00:37:08,239
Speaker 2: Eathan said. But those are the moments when I get

732
00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:10,799
Speaker 2: to sit, take a breath and figure out what she's

733
00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:13,719
Speaker 2: looking at, and she's enjoying. Oh my god, Ethan is

734
00:37:13,840 --> 00:37:20,080
Speaker 2: the most patient person in the entire universe. Yeah, she's

735
00:37:20,239 --> 00:37:24,040
Speaker 2: hiking a mountain with a rabbit, who's just have you

736
00:37:24,080 --> 00:37:27,160
Speaker 2: ever watched like Rabbits don't go on walks, They don't,

737
00:37:27,320 --> 00:37:28,560
Speaker 2: They just like meander.

738
00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:31,600
Speaker 1: So and Moss is far from incapable. She keeps on.

739
00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:35,000
Speaker 2: She keeps up on trickier trail sections, scrambling over rock

740
00:37:35,080 --> 00:37:38,719
Speaker 2: slides and hopping gaps in the trail. The rabbit's full

741
00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:43,359
Speaker 2: send attitude, Easan said, helps propel her forward. Quote, She's

742
00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:45,600
Speaker 2: kind of been my rider, die, my adventure partner. She's

743
00:37:45,680 --> 00:37:48,440
Speaker 2: really kind of the inspiration for me to keep going.

744
00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:52,640
Speaker 2: And yeah, it's a very cute rabbit. It's in New Hampshire.

745
00:37:52,680 --> 00:37:55,040
Speaker 2: I wanted to apologize to New Hampshire. People are very

746
00:37:55,120 --> 00:37:57,120
Speaker 2: upset that I hate New Hampshire so much, and I

747
00:37:57,200 --> 00:37:59,080
Speaker 2: want you to know that my hate for New Hampshire

748
00:37:59,400 --> 00:38:04,360
Speaker 2: is pure and it will never be abated. Gotcha, But

749
00:38:04,480 --> 00:38:06,320
Speaker 2: that I don't hate. I don't hate the people of

750
00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:10,880
Speaker 2: New Hampshire. It's the state itself and it is essentially

751
00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:11,799
Speaker 2: a made up beef.

752
00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:15,560
Speaker 1: I don't really care. No, we will come to New

753
00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:16,440
Speaker 1: Hampshire someday.

754
00:38:16,480 --> 00:38:18,600
Speaker 2: So I wanted to tell you guys this because I

755
00:38:18,760 --> 00:38:23,080
Speaker 2: recently had a So I've been posting my stand up

756
00:38:23,120 --> 00:38:27,320
Speaker 2: to reels Instagram, and when you do that, like sometimes

757
00:38:27,719 --> 00:38:30,080
Speaker 2: Instagram acts like TikTok and just like shoots it off

758
00:38:30,200 --> 00:38:33,520
Speaker 2: to billion people or whatever. And so I had this

759
00:38:33,640 --> 00:38:37,000
Speaker 2: one bit, this stand up bit that I recorded many

760
00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:37,920
Speaker 2: many years ago.

761
00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:41,960
Speaker 1: Quote unquote viral or what I went viral, man, And

762
00:38:43,120 --> 00:38:45,440
Speaker 1: it's too big. It means nothing.

763
00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:49,600
Speaker 2: And but what it does mean is it means the

764
00:38:49,719 --> 00:38:52,799
Speaker 2: people who are seeing it and the people who are

765
00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:57,440
Speaker 2: commenting on it are fucking lunatics.

766
00:38:57,840 --> 00:38:59,920
Speaker 1: Absolutely, it is the comments.

767
00:39:00,239 --> 00:39:02,279
Speaker 2: It's just like every time I go into Instagram, there's

768
00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:04,520
Speaker 2: like ten more comments and it's just like I don't

769
00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:06,279
Speaker 2: I can't even find them, do you know what I mean?

770
00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:08,239
Speaker 1: Because it's like just so many comments at this point.

771
00:39:08,320 --> 00:39:11,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, but the comments are always people getting into fights

772
00:39:11,920 --> 00:39:12,960
Speaker 2: about mountains.

773
00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:14,880
Speaker 1: Because the reason I bring it up is because it's

774
00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:15,640
Speaker 1: about Everest.

775
00:39:16,560 --> 00:39:19,040
Speaker 2: It's about how I'm just like saying, like, fuck anybody

776
00:39:19,080 --> 00:39:23,360
Speaker 2: who's ever climbed Everest, you're human monsters, and.

777
00:39:25,360 --> 00:39:27,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, waste the time and money and you risk other

778
00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:29,879
Speaker 3: people's lives. And then they all throw their trash there.

779
00:39:29,960 --> 00:39:33,160
Speaker 3: It's like having a big goal and going for it. Fantastic.

780
00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:35,239
Speaker 3: We couldn't support it more on the pod. But that's

781
00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:39,239
Speaker 3: just like it's like a rich person's playpen up there.

782
00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:45,200
Speaker 2: But what I found fascinating is that people are still

783
00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:48,080
Speaker 2: saying soy because people have just been calling me like

784
00:39:48,160 --> 00:39:49,320
Speaker 2: so there's a bunch of people are like this is

785
00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:52,839
Speaker 2: very funny, and then the other half are like they're

786
00:39:52,920 --> 00:39:55,719
Speaker 2: like tagging Joe Rogan to like I don't know, come

787
00:39:55,800 --> 00:40:00,200
Speaker 2: after me or something. Then they're like, soy, overlord.

788
00:40:00,440 --> 00:40:03,360
Speaker 3: No, because you think it's dumb because you think climbing

789
00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:05,680
Speaker 3: e versus is dumb. They think you're a soy lord.

790
00:40:05,840 --> 00:40:10,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're all like low tea, low tea, comedy, soy overlord,

791
00:40:11,040 --> 00:40:13,279
Speaker 2: soy boy, and it's just like it's so weird.

792
00:40:13,320 --> 00:40:15,760
Speaker 1: I had no idea that soy was being used.

793
00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:19,600
Speaker 2: Still, I thought that was like twelve or fifteen years ago,

794
00:40:19,760 --> 00:40:21,839
Speaker 2: that like people would be like he's a soy boy

795
00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:22,480
Speaker 2: or whatever.

796
00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:24,800
Speaker 6: Yeah, I thought it. I thought it peaked.

797
00:40:24,960 --> 00:40:29,359
Speaker 7: I'm sorry to hear that you're experiencing soy harassment.

798
00:40:30,360 --> 00:40:34,200
Speaker 3: But you're no soy boy. No, and even if you were,

799
00:40:37,520 --> 00:40:38,480
Speaker 3: we're half soy boys.

800
00:40:38,800 --> 00:40:39,200
Speaker 1: I thank you.

801
00:40:39,360 --> 00:40:45,719
Speaker 6: Both are very high tea and not soy. Okay, I yes, yes,

802
00:40:46,640 --> 00:40:47,160
Speaker 6: I love.

803
00:40:47,080 --> 00:40:49,879
Speaker 1: It that low tea has become an insult as well.

804
00:40:50,440 --> 00:40:53,000
Speaker 2: That's very funny to me as well, just like something

805
00:40:53,080 --> 00:40:56,120
Speaker 2: that naturally occurs as you become as you become an

806
00:40:56,120 --> 00:41:00,160
Speaker 2: older man, is now like you're you're somehow less of

807
00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:00,440
Speaker 2: a man.

808
00:41:00,520 --> 00:41:02,680
Speaker 1: It's like a more of a man. Actually I'm more

809
00:41:02,719 --> 00:41:03,799
Speaker 1: of a man with low teen.

810
00:41:05,400 --> 00:41:07,400
Speaker 3: But also I said this in Denver. When you have

811
00:41:07,560 --> 00:41:10,120
Speaker 3: high testosterone, isn't that why you go bald? Like having

812
00:41:10,160 --> 00:41:12,640
Speaker 3: a ton of testosteron is baldness. So don't you really

813
00:41:12,719 --> 00:41:15,800
Speaker 3: want to go to the Hemsworth School of Estrogen and

814
00:41:16,040 --> 00:41:18,880
Speaker 3: just have a flowing head of hair and be a superhero?

815
00:41:19,200 --> 00:41:21,680
Speaker 3: Like if that makes me a soy boy to have

816
00:41:21,760 --> 00:41:23,600
Speaker 3: a few hairs plucking out of the old the old

817
00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:25,040
Speaker 3: chrome dome, I'm into it.

818
00:41:25,400 --> 00:41:25,759
Speaker 1: Here you go.

819
00:41:26,560 --> 00:41:28,000
Speaker 6: It's all about balance, you know.

820
00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:32,200
Speaker 3: Thank you. Yeah that's pretty cool, Courtney. Have you ever

821
00:41:32,320 --> 00:41:33,680
Speaker 3: goneen viral and gotten shipped on?

822
00:41:34,520 --> 00:41:35,280
Speaker 6: I'm sure.

823
00:41:38,520 --> 00:41:41,120
Speaker 7: I've never gone like major viral, but I've gone, like

824
00:41:41,760 --> 00:41:44,320
Speaker 7: you know, I've had my I've been on the internet,

825
00:41:44,400 --> 00:41:45,600
Speaker 7: a little woman on the internet.

826
00:41:45,760 --> 00:41:48,640
Speaker 3: But oh yeah, we have to mention one thing. And

827
00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:51,840
Speaker 3: you reminded me you because we have a ton of

828
00:41:51,960 --> 00:41:55,399
Speaker 3: true crime fans thanks to my favorite murder overload. Oh yeah,

829
00:41:56,160 --> 00:41:57,440
Speaker 3: and I don't know, we can cut this if you

830
00:41:57,480 --> 00:41:59,120
Speaker 3: don't want to talk about this. But back in the day,

831
00:41:59,239 --> 00:42:01,880
Speaker 3: you did an impression of jokes hi.

832
00:42:02,840 --> 00:42:05,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, yes, yeah, I don't.

833
00:42:05,719 --> 00:42:10,040
Speaker 7: Know because it might be active on my YouTube and

834
00:42:10,080 --> 00:42:12,240
Speaker 7: I might have like made a private or whatever because

835
00:42:12,320 --> 00:42:16,040
Speaker 7: I was like, you know, it's a different time.

836
00:42:16,360 --> 00:42:17,359
Speaker 6: There was a long time ago.

837
00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:20,080
Speaker 7: I mean, she was deaf, for she was surely lying,

838
00:42:20,320 --> 00:42:22,920
Speaker 7: but maybe it was a complicated domestic situation.

839
00:42:23,440 --> 00:42:27,200
Speaker 6: You know. Yeah, I just thought you her bangs were funny,

840
00:42:27,239 --> 00:42:29,360
Speaker 6: and you know, I made a little video but it

841
00:42:29,760 --> 00:42:31,320
Speaker 6: was a great Oh thanks, thank you.

842
00:42:31,880 --> 00:42:34,160
Speaker 7: But yeah, I was like interviewed on some like weird

843
00:42:34,320 --> 00:42:37,360
Speaker 7: like news show about that, and then in the middle

844
00:42:37,440 --> 00:42:37,640
Speaker 7: of it.

845
00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:40,560
Speaker 6: I was like why am I doing this? Like why

846
00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:41,719
Speaker 6: am I doing this?

847
00:42:41,960 --> 00:42:44,759
Speaker 3: Yeah, because when you're a performer and you get like

848
00:42:44,840 --> 00:42:47,360
Speaker 3: that acknowledgment and also like you made something very funny

849
00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:50,359
Speaker 3: and people laughed at it, it's like you you say yes,

850
00:42:50,400 --> 00:42:52,600
Speaker 3: You're like yeah, let's see. And then halfway through those

851
00:42:52,719 --> 00:42:55,520
Speaker 3: local news interviews or the radio things, and comedians have

852
00:42:55,640 --> 00:42:57,080
Speaker 3: this all the time when they have to like travel

853
00:42:57,160 --> 00:43:00,839
Speaker 3: and plug like early morning Zoo Crew radio, like you go, yes,

854
00:43:00,920 --> 00:43:02,440
Speaker 3: I want more people to come to my show, and

855
00:43:02,520 --> 00:43:05,719
Speaker 3: then about four or five seconds into the interview, you go,

856
00:43:05,960 --> 00:43:07,239
Speaker 3: oh my god, what have I done?

857
00:43:08,080 --> 00:43:11,520
Speaker 7: Yeah? And also just I'm like nervously like giggling, I'm

858
00:43:11,560 --> 00:43:14,960
Speaker 7: like trying to be polite, and like ultimately someone was murdered.

859
00:43:15,160 --> 00:43:20,520
Speaker 6: You know, I'm like cool, we're going yeah, yeah, but

860
00:43:20,680 --> 00:43:21,200
Speaker 6: what of us?

861
00:43:22,239 --> 00:43:26,400
Speaker 3: I back to old old Rabbit up of the mountain.

862
00:43:26,560 --> 00:43:28,359
Speaker 3: I went on a first date when I was living

863
00:43:28,360 --> 00:43:30,359
Speaker 3: in Brooklyn. I was waiting tables and there was another

864
00:43:30,400 --> 00:43:32,160
Speaker 3: waitress there. It was really cute and I thought she

865
00:43:32,239 --> 00:43:33,839
Speaker 3: was really cool, and I asked her on a date

866
00:43:33,960 --> 00:43:35,880
Speaker 3: and she was like, Yeah, let's just not go get

867
00:43:35,960 --> 00:43:38,320
Speaker 3: drinks for dinner, movie, that's all boring. Everybody does that.

868
00:43:38,480 --> 00:43:41,280
Speaker 3: Let's go do something else, okay, which is totally fine.

869
00:43:42,320 --> 00:43:43,560
Speaker 3: And so I go, well, do you want to go

870
00:43:43,680 --> 00:43:46,640
Speaker 3: hiking in New pault And she like was like, yes,

871
00:43:47,160 --> 00:43:49,480
Speaker 3: that sounds perfect. And I had never done it. That

872
00:43:49,640 --> 00:43:51,440
Speaker 3: was my panic mode. I don't know what to do

873
00:43:51,560 --> 00:43:54,640
Speaker 3: besides drink with people. Yeah, So we go and we

874
00:43:54,760 --> 00:43:56,520
Speaker 3: drive up to New Poultse. We borrowed a car. We

875
00:43:56,600 --> 00:43:58,640
Speaker 3: went up, and I knew it was going to go

876
00:43:59,120 --> 00:44:01,480
Speaker 3: kind of sideways and that maybe she wasn't the one.

877
00:44:02,080 --> 00:44:05,120
Speaker 3: When we started up. Let's say it's a five mile hike.

878
00:44:05,320 --> 00:44:08,319
Speaker 3: About quarter mile in we get to the first sort

879
00:44:08,360 --> 00:44:12,359
Speaker 3: of clearing, just a nice cloves and sunlight bursting through

880
00:44:12,440 --> 00:44:14,719
Speaker 3: the trees, and she looks at me. She goes, well,

881
00:44:15,000 --> 00:44:20,000
Speaker 3: I gotta do a headstand. Okay. So she does a

882
00:44:20,080 --> 00:44:22,600
Speaker 3: pretty good headstand, like she did a pretty good head

883
00:44:22,640 --> 00:44:24,440
Speaker 3: She used a tree, you know, cheated a little bit,

884
00:44:24,640 --> 00:44:27,479
Speaker 3: but no big deal. So then we walk up about

885
00:44:27,520 --> 00:44:30,920
Speaker 3: another half mile. We get to an overlooked and she

886
00:44:31,080 --> 00:44:33,240
Speaker 3: looks at me. She goes, got to do a headstand,

887
00:44:33,360 --> 00:44:35,839
Speaker 3: and I go, yes, you did you hold my now

888
00:44:35,920 --> 00:44:39,160
Speaker 3: Gene bottle. Yes. So she did about six to twelve

889
00:44:39,280 --> 00:44:44,480
Speaker 3: headstands on the way up. Did not she did, And

890
00:44:45,080 --> 00:44:48,840
Speaker 3: it became as she just every time something was beautiful,

891
00:44:48,960 --> 00:44:50,440
Speaker 3: she had to do a headstand.

892
00:44:50,080 --> 00:44:52,040
Speaker 1: There, Kurt, oh my god.

893
00:44:52,480 --> 00:44:52,640
Speaker 7: Wow.

894
00:44:52,680 --> 00:44:55,239
Speaker 3: So it was around headstand number one or two that

895
00:44:55,360 --> 00:44:58,160
Speaker 3: I realized that this was not my soulmate. But then

896
00:44:58,239 --> 00:45:01,919
Speaker 3: it became beautiful because I was like, headstand and she's

897
00:45:02,040 --> 00:45:09,239
Speaker 3: like yes, uh. And and she didn't do as many

898
00:45:09,280 --> 00:45:10,880
Speaker 3: on the way down. I think she needed too. I

899
00:45:10,960 --> 00:45:12,759
Speaker 3: think it was getting a little long for her too.

900
00:45:12,800 --> 00:45:14,759
Speaker 3: And how many headstands can you do on the side

901
00:45:14,760 --> 00:45:16,440
Speaker 3: of a mountain. But she was doing them on cliffs

902
00:45:16,640 --> 00:45:18,640
Speaker 3: like right, like not she was gonna fall over, but

903
00:45:18,840 --> 00:45:22,520
Speaker 3: pretty close people would walk by she was doing a headstand.

904
00:45:22,560 --> 00:45:24,200
Speaker 3: I would just kind of shrug. They would.

905
00:45:26,440 --> 00:45:30,800
Speaker 1: What did you ever get a sense of Why was

906
00:45:30,880 --> 00:45:33,960
Speaker 1: she like really into yoga or like I.

907
00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:36,200
Speaker 3: Think she leaned that way. I think she was sort

908
00:45:36,200 --> 00:45:38,800
Speaker 3: of new age and spiritual, and I think she leaned

909
00:45:38,920 --> 00:45:42,160
Speaker 3: into sort of seeing the world in her own way

910
00:45:42,239 --> 00:45:46,000
Speaker 3: and weird. Stayed friends afterwards and we didn't have more dates,

911
00:45:46,040 --> 00:45:47,960
Speaker 3: but she never did a headstand at the restaurant, which

912
00:45:47,960 --> 00:45:50,560
Speaker 3: I always thought was sort of a letdown. You know, Yeah,

913
00:45:51,280 --> 00:45:53,840
Speaker 3: I got a twenty five percent to I got to

914
00:45:53,880 --> 00:45:54,520
Speaker 3: do a headstand.

915
00:45:56,360 --> 00:45:59,320

921
00:46:18,600 --> 00:46:22,359

Speaker 7: reached out for people in my periphery that I already

927
00:46:38,960 --> 00:46:41,080
Speaker 7: sort of knew. So I think that's why that's why

00:47:10,200 --> 00:47:12,480
Speaker 3: briefly my side of that day, but I would love

939
00:47:12,560 --> 00:47:17,080
Speaker 3: to hear oh great, great, because my story is it

940
00:47:17,200 --> 00:47:19,000
Speaker 3: didn't hit for like an hour. Then you and I

941
00:47:19,080 --> 00:47:22,200
Speaker 3: walked down towards the wharf, and then you were like,

942
00:47:22,280 --> 00:47:24,360
Speaker 3: I'm starting to feel it, and I said, I'm starting

943
00:47:24,400 --> 00:47:26,280
Speaker 3: to feel it, and then I took ten more steps

944
00:47:26,360 --> 00:47:28,320
Speaker 3: and then I could only hear one sound at a

945
00:47:28,400 --> 00:47:30,840
Speaker 3: time for the rest of the day, where if you

946
00:47:30,920 --> 00:47:32,680
Speaker 3: were talking, I had to look at you and then

947
00:47:32,719 --> 00:47:34,359
Speaker 3: I could hear your voice, and then I would hear

948
00:47:34,440 --> 00:47:36,960
Speaker 3: seagull and turn and your voice would go away in

949
00:47:37,000 --> 00:47:40,160
Speaker 3: the seagulls call, and then there'd be a trash can.

950
00:47:41,040 --> 00:47:43,400
Speaker 3: Now what do you remember? Insane?

951
00:47:43,800 --> 00:47:46,160
Speaker 6: No, No, But I didn't know that you were like that.

952
00:47:46,840 --> 00:47:49,000
Speaker 7: I must I must have been too, but I just

953
00:47:49,160 --> 00:47:51,880
Speaker 7: I know at that time in my life, I think

954
00:47:51,960 --> 00:47:55,480
Speaker 7: I just always felt a little like sad, like tensive

955
00:47:55,640 --> 00:47:58,960
Speaker 7: u so. And also I was just like, you know,

956
00:47:59,160 --> 00:48:02,640
Speaker 7: like I'm very calm, pole just like falling a manner.

957
00:48:04,320 --> 00:48:06,880
Speaker 7: So I was like I felt safe, like because I

958
00:48:07,040 --> 00:48:09,480
Speaker 7: was just like and you always have this like air.

959
00:48:09,440 --> 00:48:11,560
Speaker 6: Of like this man knows what's going on, you.

960
00:48:11,600 --> 00:48:13,080
Speaker 1: Know, so I kind of does.

Speaker 5: Yeah.

962
00:48:14,239 --> 00:48:16,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, but it was one sound at a time. I

963
00:48:17,040 --> 00:48:19,759
Speaker 3: do remember at the hotel, we looked at like my

964
00:48:19,880 --> 00:48:22,480
Speaker 3: pedometer or whatever my phone, and I was like, when

966
00:48:24,960 --> 00:48:25,520
Speaker 3: nine thous oh.

967
00:48:25,600 --> 00:48:27,759
Speaker 6: Yeah, it was insane, Like we walked for so long.

968
00:48:27,960 --> 00:48:30,359
Speaker 7: That's what I remember most, like we like, I don't

969
00:48:30,400 --> 00:48:34,920
Speaker 7: think I've ever walked uphill so much like casually in

970
00:48:35,120 --> 00:48:35,640
Speaker 7: my life.

971
00:48:35,920 --> 00:48:36,160

00:48:40,080 --> 00:48:44,160
Speaker 6: Yeah yeah, yeah, I remember. Yeah, it was fun. It

975
00:48:44,280 --> 00:48:46,200
Speaker 6: was fun. Ultimately, it was fun.

976
00:48:47,400 --> 00:48:49,359
Speaker 2: I think one of the last times I had take

977
00:48:49,840 --> 00:48:53,239
Speaker 2: eating eating pot and I don't do it anymore, but

978
00:48:53,600 --> 00:48:55,799
Speaker 2: I it was. I was really into photography at the time,

979
00:48:56,200 --> 00:48:58,879
Speaker 2: and so I took all these photos, got really high

980
00:48:58,960 --> 00:49:01,279
Speaker 2: on a pop brownie that I'm and myself took all

981
00:49:01,360 --> 00:49:03,080
Speaker 2: these photos and then it was when I was I

982
00:49:03,320 --> 00:49:06,680
Speaker 2: was still like developing them in a in a dark room.

983
00:49:06,840 --> 00:49:09,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, dark room, sure, yeah, dark room, it is it.

984
00:49:09,120 --> 00:49:11,640
Speaker 2: I was gonna say, a dark lab. That's something else,

985
00:49:12,160 --> 00:49:15,560
Speaker 2: And so then I get the whole role. It's thirty

986
00:49:15,680 --> 00:49:26,120
Speaker 2: six photos of like five Jolly Ranchers on a stovetop,

987
00:49:27,120 --> 00:49:31,200
Speaker 2: just a rage different and they're all in black and white.

988
00:49:31,719 --> 00:49:34,600
Speaker 2: So it's black and thirty six black and white photos

989
00:49:34,680 --> 00:49:37,920
Speaker 2: of five Jolly ranchers just in a pile in the

990
00:49:38,000 --> 00:49:40,800
Speaker 2: middle of a stovetop with like four burders around it.

991
00:49:41,280 --> 00:49:42,520
Speaker 3: And I was just like, this is it?

992
00:49:42,920 --> 00:49:43,440
Speaker 7: This is it?

993
00:49:43,960 --> 00:49:48,680
Speaker 6: Oh no, you were like, oh so beautiful. Yeah, that's

994
00:49:48,760 --> 00:49:49,319
Speaker 6: really dumb.

995
00:49:49,480 --> 00:49:49,880
Speaker 5: I like that.

996
00:49:50,920 --> 00:49:53,120
Speaker 3: We've had a lot of that. That's so fun.

997
00:49:53,160 --> 00:49:56,759
Speaker 2: And then black and white, so all the color form

998
00:49:56,760 --> 00:49:58,680
Speaker 2: the Jolly Ranchers is not available.

999
00:49:58,800 --> 00:50:02,319
Speaker 3: Oh my god, that's so funny. Yeah. Art when you're

1000
00:50:02,600 --> 00:50:05,600
Speaker 3: like enhanced is a very it's a very disappointing. That's

1001
00:50:05,600 --> 00:50:07,440
Speaker 3: why I never really smoked pot, because I wanted to

1002
00:50:07,480 --> 00:50:09,439
Speaker 3: be a writer that didn't need to get high to write.

1003
00:50:09,760 --> 00:50:11,480
Speaker 3: So I was always like afraid that if I got

1004
00:50:11,560 --> 00:50:13,239
Speaker 3: high and then it was funnier. People would be like, oh,

1005
00:50:13,280 --> 00:50:15,200
Speaker 3: he's only funny, like so yeah, it was always like

1006
00:50:15,239 --> 00:50:17,560
Speaker 3: a weird fear. But bad art when you're stoned is

1007
00:50:17,600 --> 00:50:18,200
Speaker 3: the funniest thing.

1008
00:50:19,239 --> 00:50:22,240
Speaker 1: It's so funny. Give us one to send us home, Scottie.

1009
00:50:21,880 --> 00:50:24,239
Speaker 3: We'll send you home, Kurtibe, Courtney, thank you for being

1010
00:50:24,320 --> 00:50:27,480
Speaker 3: on the pod anytime. And I think I owe you

1011
00:50:27,640 --> 00:50:29,640
Speaker 3: roller blades since you gave me a slide. I feel

1012
00:50:29,640 --> 00:50:32,719
Speaker 3: like that is a very very fair come on.

1013
00:50:32,800 --> 00:50:33,680
Speaker 1: I think that's true.

1014
00:50:33,880 --> 00:50:36,520
Speaker 3: Let's go when I'm back tomorrow, let's go get some

00:50:46,280 --> 00:50:46,680
Speaker 3: I don't know.

1019
00:50:46,960 --> 00:50:48,480
Speaker 6: I don't know why I reacted.

1020
00:50:48,200 --> 00:50:50,160
Speaker 1: That list it was.

1021
00:50:50,560 --> 00:50:54,360
Speaker 2: It is surprising the number of children that we have listening.

1022
00:50:54,480 --> 00:50:58,520
Speaker 2: I'm always surprised. And we were at we were at

1023
00:50:58,840 --> 00:51:01,600
Speaker 2: doing a show in dense her and I literally like

1024

00:51:05,520 --> 00:51:08,600
Speaker 2: like eleven, and I was like literally just like yeah,

1026
00:51:08,719 --> 00:51:10,960
Speaker 2: So then we fucked and I looked and I made

1027
00:51:11,040 --> 00:51:13,560
Speaker 2: eye contact with us like eleven year old girl. I

1028
00:51:13,640 --> 00:51:16,720
Speaker 2: was like, oh, no, there is a And I didn't

1029
00:51:16,719 --> 00:51:19,400
Speaker 2: want to say there's a little girl here, so instead

1030
00:51:19,440 --> 00:51:22,600
Speaker 2: I said, I just made eye contact with a young person.

1031
00:51:22,719 --> 00:51:23,600
Speaker 3: And I sounded like.

1032
00:51:26,320 --> 00:51:28,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, oh man.

1033
00:51:28,719 --> 00:51:33,120
Speaker 3: We just fuck fingerpaints and did our homework and brush

1034
00:51:33,200 --> 00:51:35,400
Speaker 3: our teeth. We love our parents and we prayed to

1035
00:51:35,480 --> 00:51:35,839
Speaker 3: the Lord.

1036
00:51:35,960 --> 00:51:37,880
Speaker 2: But also we do love our young ban animals, and

1037
00:51:38,000 --> 00:51:40,800
Speaker 2: we apologize if we're ever inappropriate.

1038
00:51:40,239 --> 00:51:41,800
Speaker 1: But also that's life.

1039
00:51:42,320 --> 00:51:45,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, we love them all, all right. Sean Carroll definitely

1040
00:51:45,200 --> 00:51:48,400
Speaker 3: sent this one in. It was written by Hannah Guttenhan

1041
00:51:48,640 --> 00:51:54,400
Speaker 3: for Insider. I've heard of that she's good. Uh Swedish sexy.

1042
00:51:54,640 --> 00:51:59,200
Speaker 3: Swedish garbage can seductively encouraged citizens to properly toss away

1043
00:51:59,280 --> 00:51:59,760
Speaker 3: their trash.

1044
00:52:00,000 --> 00:52:01,800
Speaker 1: Oh my god, what is going on?

1045
00:52:02,120 --> 00:52:05,200
Speaker 3: What Hannah covers trash of the best. Also, when Courty

1046
00:52:05,239 --> 00:52:08,480
Speaker 3: and I were driving back from San Francisco that trip,

1047
00:52:08,680 --> 00:52:11,799
Speaker 3: she called herself a poor dirt person, which I laughed

1048
00:52:11,840 --> 00:52:14,800
Speaker 3: at very hard. This was ten years ago, and I

1049
00:52:14,920 --> 00:52:17,880
Speaker 3: put that in the script for MA and the director

1050
00:52:17,960 --> 00:52:19,799
Speaker 3: got to do a rewrite and he called me out

1051
00:52:19,800 --> 00:52:21,240
Speaker 3: of the blue one day and he goes, hey, Scott,

1052
00:52:21,320 --> 00:52:23,439
Speaker 3: it's Tate. I'm like, what's update? He goes, what's poor

1053
00:52:23,560 --> 00:52:25,839
Speaker 3: dirt person? I go, what do you mean? He goes

1054
00:52:26,000 --> 00:52:28,160
Speaker 3: that Maggie says, poor dirt person? What's that mean? I go,

1055
00:52:28,320 --> 00:52:30,440
Speaker 3: It's just a funny way for this girl to describe herself.

1056
00:52:30,680 --> 00:52:32,480
Speaker 3: And he deleted. He took it out of the script.

1057
00:52:33,280 --> 00:52:36,200
Speaker 3: I was like, I was like, it was just casual.

1058
00:52:36,280 --> 00:52:37,680
Speaker 3: I was like, of all the lines, he thought it

1059
00:52:37,800 --> 00:52:41,480
Speaker 3: was like slang and he didn't know it because he's older.

1060
00:52:41,600 --> 00:52:43,600
Speaker 3: And I was like, yeah, no, it's just something funny

1061
00:52:43,640 --> 00:52:46,840
Speaker 3: for that character to say. He's like, got it delete anyway?

1062
00:52:48,040 --> 00:52:51,200
Speaker 1: Crazy, Yeah, that's totally crazy. It's a very funny thing

1063
00:52:51,280 --> 00:52:51,640
Speaker 1: to say.

1064
00:52:52,040 --> 00:52:56,279
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yes, Diana Silver's saying I'm a poor dirt person.

1065
00:52:56,360 --> 00:52:59,080
Speaker 3: Funny Okay. Anyways, Hannah wrote this and she really is

1066
00:52:59,120 --> 00:53:01,160
Speaker 3: the best in business because their first line goes, who

1067
00:53:01,239 --> 00:53:03,440
Speaker 3: knew trash could be such a turn on? As part

1068
00:53:03,480 --> 00:53:05,239
Speaker 3: of a campaign to get the city to throw away

1069
00:53:05,320 --> 00:53:07,960
Speaker 3: their garbage and reduce litter on the streets, the Swedish

1070
00:53:08,040 --> 00:53:11,840
Speaker 3: city of Malmo installed two trash cans program to respond

1071
00:53:11,880 --> 00:53:16,399
Speaker 3: to users with seductive audio messages what yes. The green

1072
00:53:16,440 --> 00:53:21,480
Speaker 3: garbage bins installed on Davis SHL braun Bridge answer when

1073
00:53:21,520 --> 00:53:25,600
Speaker 3: passerbys feed trash into their mouths. YouTube video shows one

1074
00:53:25,640 --> 00:53:28,440
Speaker 3: person opening the trash can and it responds with sultry

1075
00:53:28,480 --> 00:53:31,840
Speaker 3: phrases of encouragement like come back quickly and do that

1076
00:53:31,960 --> 00:53:35,200
Speaker 3: to me again, or oh yeah, right there, and so

1077
00:53:35,520 --> 00:53:40,320
Speaker 3: crazy that was crazy good. Marie Person, Section, chief of

1078
00:53:40,360 --> 00:53:43,799
Speaker 3: Malmo's Roads department, told the Swedish paper, I'm just gonna

1079
00:53:43,920 --> 00:53:45,640
Speaker 3: guess this told the Swedish.

1080
00:53:45,239 --> 00:53:48,400
Speaker 2: Paper, we think of women as trash cans and that's

1081
00:53:48,520 --> 00:53:51,160
Speaker 2: why we thought this would be appropriate.

1082
00:53:52,200 --> 00:53:56,400
Speaker 3: Yes, that's it, she said. The trash cans were meant

1083
00:53:56,440 --> 00:53:58,600
Speaker 3: to give a positive reinforcement to people to do the

1084
00:53:58,680 --> 00:54:01,520
Speaker 3: right thing by giving them a law off. The sentences

1085
00:54:01,560 --> 00:54:03,799
Speaker 3: were part of the campaign's intention to get more people

1086
00:54:03,840 --> 00:54:08,400
Speaker 3: to talk about the dirtiest thing there is, littering stuff

1087
00:54:08,440 --> 00:54:11,040
Speaker 3: that ends up in our streets, squares and see person says.

1088
00:54:11,120 --> 00:54:13,840
Speaker 3: Person also said that the Swedish voice belongs to a

1089
00:54:13,960 --> 00:54:17,080
Speaker 3: quote famous person end quote, but did not identify who

1090
00:54:17,120 --> 00:54:19,000
Speaker 3: it was. So if we have any Swedish ban animals,

1091
00:54:19,160 --> 00:54:24,760
