34
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:04,280
Speaker 1: it's good to give some context. So we've been doing

35
00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:07,320
Speaker 1: bananas for about a year and a few months, and

36
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:10,360
Speaker 1: Buddy was an early story. This is a beefalo. A

37
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 1: bfalo is a half cow half buff bison. You can

38
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:17,040
Speaker 1: breed them. And this one his name Buddy, and he

39
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:19,320
Speaker 1: escaped in Connecticut and was on the lamb from the cops.

40
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:21,600
Speaker 1: There were sightings for like nine months. He made it

41
00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:23,640
Speaker 1: all winter without getting caught. He lived.

42
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:26,000
Speaker 2: He just lived free for nine months.

43
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:30,520
Speaker 1: So he was caught, no and now and then he

44
00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:33,320
Speaker 1: was caught and he was humanly taken to sort of

45
00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:35,840
Speaker 1: a green pasture to live out the rest of his days.

46
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:37,800
Speaker 1: So he didn't take him to a slaughterhouse. Buddy the

47
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:41,040
Speaker 1: Beeflow is a true survivor's story. So we love Buddy.

48
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 2: Wow. And also just this was sent in by Bananamal

49
00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:50,360
Speaker 2: Polly Birdie, so that she's alerting us all about the

50

Speaker 1: Thank you, Polly. Yeah.

52
00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:57,480
Speaker 2: So he lives now on Critter Creek Farm Sanctuary in Gainesville, Florida,

53
00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:02,560
Speaker 2: it which seems a cow to be an uncomfortable place

54
00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:03,160
Speaker 2: to live.

55
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:05,320
Speaker 1: So humid.

56
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:10,200
Speaker 2: But there was an update on the I don't know

57
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:12,840
Speaker 2: if you guys follow Critter Creek Farm Sanctuary on Instagram

58
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:16,680
Speaker 2: like I do, but they posted They just posted this

59
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:19,360
Speaker 2: just a day ago. How about a quick update on

60
00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:22,799
Speaker 2: Buddy the famous Biso cow. They call him a Biso cow,

61
00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:25,080
Speaker 2: which is nice because they're not referring to him as food,

62
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:28,040
Speaker 2: right befalo is like referring to him half as food.

63
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:32,200
Speaker 2: Maybe he's crossed over now that he is not set

64
00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:34,480
Speaker 2: to be slaughter. Everybody is no longer a beef of

65
00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:36,160
Speaker 2: everybody's days.

66
00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 1: It's a really fun time to be alive.

67
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:41,720
Speaker 2: Over the past couple of weeks, Buddy seems to have

68
00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:45,119
Speaker 2: settled in with his new chosen family, consisting of Eleanor

69
00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:49,000
Speaker 2: her baby Daisy, Deanna and her baby Bunny, and Autumn.

70
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:52,720
Speaker 2: He's particularly taken with Eleanor pictured here with Buddy on

71
00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:56,560
Speaker 2: a lovely fivey morning. Eleanor seems to return the sentiment,

72
00:03:56,600 --> 00:04:02,360
Speaker 2: as she even allowed Buddy to babysit Daisy for her. Wow,

73
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:06,200
Speaker 2: we'll post it on the instagram. Wow, I'm very happy

74
00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:07,120
Speaker 2: with each other. Now.

75
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:08,680
Speaker 3: That's so beautiful.

76
00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:09,320
Speaker 1: It is.

77
00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 2: It's such a stepping in.

78
00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:11,920
Speaker 3: He's stepping in as the father.

79
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:15,040
Speaker 4: You know, he's gone through hell and back and he

80
00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:18,000
Speaker 4: comes here and he deserves to just live out his days.

81
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:19,560
Speaker 4: And he says, no, no, no, I'm going to come

Speaker 3: The credits are about to roll.

88
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:36,400
Speaker 1: Wow, it's nice. It's also kind of like a summertime romanceic.

89
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:38,440
Speaker 1: Have you ever been on a vacation and for two

90
00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:41,800
Speaker 1: weeks you just really clicked with somebody and then never

91
00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:42,839
Speaker 1: ever saw them again.

92
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:47,360
Speaker 2: Oh, yes, it happens. Oh yeah, it happens. Sixteen When

93
00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:51,880
Speaker 2: I was sixteen. It happened in Laguna Beach, California. Okay,

94
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:58,640
Speaker 2: Laguna beach, the Laguna Beach in nineteen ninety three. Her

95
00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:02,440
Speaker 2: name was Heather and we had a torrid love affair

96
00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:03,240
Speaker 2: for two weeks.

97
00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:06,400
Speaker 3: Oh really, your first kiss or what was the vibe?

98
00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:06,560
Speaker 1: Was it?

99
00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:06,840
Speaker 3: First?

100
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:10,720
Speaker 2: It wasn't first kiss. And I guess I wasn't even

101
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:13,640
Speaker 2: six ham, I must have been fourteen, but she was

102
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:16,120
Speaker 2: like dating. So there was like three people who were

103
00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:19,000
Speaker 2: fourteen who were like staying in the same apartments on

104
00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:23,520
Speaker 2: the beach and this dude, Mike and her and me.

105
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:25,800
Speaker 2: And then when I got there, Mike and hur had

106
00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:27,640
Speaker 2: already been there for a couple of days, so they

107
00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:31,200
Speaker 2: were already quote unquote vacation dating. And I would just

108
00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:34,280
Speaker 2: like hang out and be like the funny third wheel

109
00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:37,680
Speaker 2: with them. But then she started hooking up with me

110
00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:40,599
Speaker 2: while Mike was still there, and then Mike left and

111
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:43,000
Speaker 2: then it was just full on us. And then we

112
00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:46,640
Speaker 2: wrote letters for like years afterwards. Oh oh my gosh.

113
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:48,800
Speaker 3: Now this is kind of a little bit the opposite

114
00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:49,680
Speaker 3: of the beat flow store.

115
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:53,480
Speaker 4: You kind of coming to a family.

116
00:05:55,279 --> 00:06:02,360
Speaker 1: No, I got something to do, yeahs indeed, yes, indeed,

117
00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:04,960
Speaker 1: sorry Mike, but you know, the connection was there.

118
00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:05,840
Speaker 2: The connection was there.

119
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:09,800
Speaker 1: I don't regret it. It's undeniable, and I'm so glad

120
00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:14,200
Speaker 1: you do that. In Laguna Beach that is total a

121
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:17,200
Speaker 1: place for young love, romantic sunset, sitting on the beach

122
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:19,440
Speaker 1: and you're like a little cold, and you give someone

123
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:21,680
Speaker 1: your hoodie and it feels just like, this is it.

124
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 1: These are what real emotions feel like. I'm an adult.

125
00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:26,240
Speaker 1: And then you look, this is what.

126
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:29,880
Speaker 3: The songs are about. Yes, it all makes sense now.

127
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:30,200
Speaker 2: Yeah.

128
00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:33,240
Speaker 1: All the chemicals are coursing through all the right veins

129
00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:35,560
Speaker 1: at this point. And then suddenly you look and you

130
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:37,520
Speaker 1: look at a sixteen year old or however old you were,

131
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:40,400
Speaker 1: and they look like a toddler. You're like, what was

132
00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:41,080
Speaker 1: I like.

133
00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:43,960
Speaker 2: It's so crazy, Oh my god, so crazy.

134
00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:46,200
Speaker 1: I play like twenty one year olds. Like if you

135
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:48,880
Speaker 1: see somebody like college students or whatever around your cla,

136
00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:51,840
Speaker 1: you're like, is that person twenty one or are they fifteen?

137
00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:53,920
Speaker 1: It's very disber.

138
00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:57,120
Speaker 2: It is very upsetting. So tell us about your movie

139
00:06:57,200 --> 00:06:59,520
Speaker 2: Alyssa Too Late, Too Late.

140
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:02,839
Speaker 3: Yes, we shot this before the pandemic. It was so fun.

141
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:07,080
Speaker 4: It's basically about the indie scene in La indie comedy scene,

142
00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:10,040
Speaker 4: where I am a shy assistant who wants to be

143
00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:11,560
Speaker 4: a comedian but isn't brave enough.

144
00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:14,360
Speaker 3: To do it. And my boss is really toxic.

145
00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:18,080
Speaker 4: And mean and a monster, and I am complicit in

146
00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:18,840
Speaker 4: a lot of what he does.

147
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:20,720
Speaker 3: And then throughout the movie, you know, I try to

148
00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 3: try to take some power back.

149
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:26,600
Speaker 1: That's case awesome, and everybody involved is funny. Was it

150
00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:28,520
Speaker 1: a lot of improv or did it? Was it heavily

151
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:31,560
Speaker 1: scripted and you stuck to word perfect acting?

152
00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:35,000
Speaker 4: Mostly we were to Tom Becker wrote the film, and

153
00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:37,000
Speaker 4: mostly we stuck to his script, but they were The

154
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:39,600
Speaker 4: director d W. Thomas was really great about us being

155
00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:41,480
Speaker 4: loose with each other because we were all comedians and

156
00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:43,920
Speaker 4: adding some tags, adding some rips, but most of the

157
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:47,000
Speaker 4: time we were sticking to Tom Becker's brilliant words.

158
00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:50,080
Speaker 1: That's great, Yes, that's great. Yeah. Fred is like a

159
00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:53,000
Speaker 1: master of that too, So I'm sure, Oh god, so good.

160
00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:55,160
Speaker 1: So is it a genre comedy or is it just

161
00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:56,240
Speaker 1: straight comedy?

162
00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:58,920
Speaker 3: No, yeah, it's a horror comedy.

163
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:00,720
Speaker 4: But yeah, the fact that it was all comedians and

164
00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:03,840
Speaker 4: it was like, you know, it was an indie I

165
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:07,080
Speaker 4: it was really fun because we didn't have like trailers.

166
00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:09,120
Speaker 4: It was very just like we would all come in

167
00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:12,240
Speaker 4: and sit in the same room, which really helped, I think,

168
00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:14,880
Speaker 4: because it's all comedians, so we just riffed all the time.

169
00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:16,920
Speaker 3: It was so fun. We all got to know each other,

170
00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:18,080
Speaker 3: comfortable with each other.

171
00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:21,360
Speaker 4: It's the best because you know, when you the other way,

Speaker 1: I saw you sitting in a Nissan with Brie Larsen

182
00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:48,120
Speaker 1: quite often. What is it like to sit in a

183

Speaker 3: After the movie wrapped, and it's.

188
00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:07,080

Speaker 1: wearing a fox costume. And this is a full mascot costume,

223
00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:04,600

227
00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:17,000
Speaker 1: more terrifying, I think. Uh. Alison Reese posted a picture

228
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:19,440
Speaker 1: of a woman wearing a fox costume, explaining that several

229
00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:22,640
Speaker 1: years ago, the woman came into her Chicago coffee shop

230
00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:28,160
Speaker 1: where Reese was starting her day. So I DMed it

231
00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:30,720
Speaker 1: she came to her job. Yeah, she's she started at

232
00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:33,959
Speaker 1: a coffee shop at six am, So I DMed Alison

235
00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:41,160
Speaker 1: it was the first customer of the day. So as

00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:43,640
Speaker 1: she's bringing coffee, she turns and there's just a fox

237
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:45,440

Speaker 2: Oh my god, oh like just staring at her through

239
00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:49,920

Speaker 3: She the screaming was fun. It was fun screaming.

270
00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:08,160
Speaker 1: Yes, mom, Oh, I see what you're saying. She's justifying

271
00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:12,800
Speaker 1: her insane actions by saying she's not in therapy. She's

272
00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:17,640
Speaker 1: not in therapy. She's twenty three, or excuse me today,

273
00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:19,800
Speaker 1: she's thirty three. And I didn't make it for a

274
00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:22,560
Speaker 1: birthday this year, but she surprised me with tickets to

275
00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:26,240
Speaker 1: come see her last month. Thanks again. So the daughter

276
00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:28,160
Speaker 1: responded to Allison with a little bit more of a

277
00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:31,920
Speaker 1: back and forth and said that she had no idea

278
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:34,199
Speaker 1: her mother was coming to town at all I was

279
00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:36,760
Speaker 1: leaving for work and was running late. I was texting

280
00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:39,000
Speaker 1: a friend to see where they were as I was

281
00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:43,199
Speaker 1: in my lobby. Bear, excuse me. A fox comes out

282
00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:46,160
Speaker 1: of nowhere and legit scares the absolute shit out of me,

283
00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:49,520
Speaker 1: I ran outside and jumped into an uber. The daughter

284
00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:52,280
Speaker 1: went on to say that that her coworkers knew about

285
00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:54,800
Speaker 1: the mom's prank, so when she got to the office,

286
00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:57,600
Speaker 1: everyone was acting really weird, and I'm like, yeah, that's

287
00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:01,560
Speaker 1: exactly she initially thought. This is maybe more terrifying by

288
00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:04,280
Speaker 1: the way, she initially thought that the animal was a

289
00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:07,040
Speaker 1: giant squirrel costume and not a fox, but she was

290
00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:12,280
Speaker 1: running too fast to look back and see she did it, so, Kurt,

291
00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:14,480
Speaker 1: the only time I've ever been in a mascot costume

292
00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:16,720
Speaker 1: ever was on your show Bunk, when I was the

293
00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:18,480
Speaker 1: giant birthday cake. Do you remember when I was the

294
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:19,600
Speaker 1: dancing birthday cake?

295
00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:22,440
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, well you were also the you were also

296
00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:26,720
Speaker 2: the chicken point chicken. Yes, oh yeah, you would come out.

297
00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:29,160
Speaker 2: So I had this show called Bunk many moons ago

298
00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:33,080
Speaker 2: on IFC, which was like a precursor. It was like

299
00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:37,520
Speaker 2: it was a fully improvised game show, made up rules.

300
00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:40,600
Speaker 2: No one would win anything, and then it would all

301
00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:44,200
Speaker 2: be comedians competing, Like one of the questions would be

302
00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:48,360
Speaker 2: like one of them would be insult this puppy, and

303
00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:50,480
Speaker 2: then like puppies would be brought out and then all

304
00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:52,320
Speaker 2: the comedians had to do their best to like really

305
00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:54,880
Speaker 2: shame the puppy. Oh it was called shame this puppy.

306
00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:55,200
Speaker 1: Yeah.

307
00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:59,000
Speaker 2: And then and then at the end, so everyone would

308
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:02,000
Speaker 2: win points, but they would be like made up points.

309
00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:06,080
Speaker 2: This was before at midnight. And then at the end

310
00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:07,960
Speaker 2: of the show, I'd be like, all right, let's count

311
00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:10,440
Speaker 2: up all the points and find out who was. And

312
00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:12,440
Speaker 2: then the points chicken would come out.

313
00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:13,560
Speaker 1: That was Scotty and.

314
00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:17,120
Speaker 2: He would do this very particular dance which made me

315
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:19,960
Speaker 2: laugh so much, and he would come up and then

316
00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:22,320
Speaker 2: he would just rip up all the points. And they're like,

320
00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:32,800
Speaker 1: not an aspiring actor. I'm not an aspiring performer by

321
00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:36,080
Speaker 1: any means. But whenever somebody's like, do you want to

322
00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:39,000
Speaker 1: be this dumb thing in a costume, I'll do anything.

323
00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:42,239
Speaker 1: Like dream jobs for me would be dead guy in background,

324
00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:45,400
Speaker 1: a person who gets hit by bag of leaves from

325
00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:49,720
Speaker 1: moving vehicle, like I just love being so Alyssa. If

326
00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:52,120
Speaker 1: you ever make your own independent film, whatever, you just

327
00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:54,080
Speaker 1: need somebody in the back to have like a bookshelf

328
00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:58,680
Speaker 1: fall on top of call me I'll gladly anything slapsticky,

329
00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:00,560
Speaker 1: but yeah, I was the points Chicken would come out

330
00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:04,560
Speaker 1: and do this wild dance. It also scared the contestants

331
00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:06,880
Speaker 1: because it was the only like, yeh, super fast thing.

332
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:10,960
Speaker 1: So like I remember seeing people's faces being like, oh shit,

333
00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:12,080
Speaker 1: who is this.

334
00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:15,960
Speaker 2: And then because you would come and you would grab

335
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:18,160
Speaker 2: them from me, like it'd be like oh no, stop

336
00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:19,880
Speaker 2: and stop. Yeah, so funny.

337
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:22,600
Speaker 1: It was beautiful, and I got to play that part

338
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:25,800
Speaker 1: four times because Kurt, he's such a good sport about

339
00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:27,920
Speaker 1: this kind of thing. We had to make four pilots

340
00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:31,160
Speaker 1: for that show because they were unsure if it was

341
00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:34,720
Speaker 1: gonna work, and it was so gosh dang funny. So

342
00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:36,480
Speaker 1: I was point Chicken five times total.

343
00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:39,040
Speaker 2: This reminds me of a prank that I've always wanted

344
00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:42,200
Speaker 2: to do, which is you choose one person or in office,

345
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:44,360
Speaker 2: and then everyone else in the office has to agree

346
00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:46,320
Speaker 2: to be in on the prank, and then you just

347
00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:50,280
Speaker 2: lead a horse through the office like quickly, and then

348
00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:53,360
Speaker 2: no one reacts, okay, So like a horse just goes

349
00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:55,760
Speaker 2: by and then leaves, and then you immediately like get

350
00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:57,680
Speaker 2: the horse into an elevator. And get it out of there,

351
00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:00,520
Speaker 2: and then it's just everyone else. It's like, what are

352
00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:02,840
Speaker 2: you talking about? Everyone denies that there is just a

353
00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:05,600
Speaker 2: horse walk by. I've always wanted to do that, prac

354
00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:08,320
Speaker 2: I've had it in my head for years. Yes, yes,

355
00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:09,720
Speaker 2: someday some day you could.

356
00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:13,080
Speaker 4: I bet, I bet you could get Yeah. This woman,

357
00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:15,320
Speaker 4: this mom, seems to be up for anything. I think

358
00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:17,679
Speaker 4: I think she's got a horse connection. She's got a

359
00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:19,520
Speaker 4: fox kind of yeah, she's she's tapped in.

360
00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:23,679
Speaker 1: Yeah, Alyssa. When you're doing your mom character, is this

361
00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:26,240
Speaker 1: a direct impression of your actual mother? Is this a

362
00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:28,800
Speaker 1: combination of a bunch of women in your life? Is

363
00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:30,200
Speaker 1: it just a composite?

364
00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:34,119
Speaker 3: I would say it's pretty much direct. It's pretty much direct.

365
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:40,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, it's pretty much like almost always something that

366
00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:42,439
Speaker 4: she said or a heightened version of because but but

367
00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:45,040

Speaker 2: It might be Switzerland.

00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:29,280
Speaker 1: I don't know. They probably got a fjord in Sweden.

Speaker 2: nurse named Jesus after collapsing during race. This was sent

508
00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:37,200
Speaker 2: in by Olivia Latin Latimer. This was her very first submission.

509
00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:38,439

512
00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:50,439
Speaker 2: This was written by Caleb Park who, Scotty, do you

513
00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:52,160
Speaker 2: know where they are in the business.

514
00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:55,480
Speaker 1: I've looked into Caleb Park before and he's not at

515
00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:58,080
Speaker 1: the bottom of the business. He is the best in

516
00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:01,240
Speaker 1: the business at writing articles are about people getting hurt

517
00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:02,560
Speaker 1: running there.

518
00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:05,000
Speaker 2: It is a Minnesota runner's bib turned out to be

519
00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:07,680
Speaker 2: more prophetic than he could have ever imagined. Tyler Moon,

520
00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:12,439
Speaker 2: twenty five year old General Mills customer operations specialist in

521
00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:15,479
Speaker 2: the Minneapolis area, entered a ten mile race earlier this

522
00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:18,520
Speaker 2: morning month with a faith filled message that turned about

523
00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:21,400
Speaker 2: to be true to his life quote. So before the race,

524
00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:24,320
Speaker 2: my name was originally on the bib, Moon told Fox News.

525
00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:26,240
Speaker 2: One day I got a thought. I thought it was

526
00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:28,720
Speaker 2: from God that it should be a profession of faith,

527
00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:31,720
Speaker 2: and I changed it to Jesus saves so that another

528
00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:33,879
Speaker 2: runner or someone in the audience would see it that

529
00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:37,560
Speaker 2: Jesus saves us for eternity. On race day, October sixth,

530
00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:40,120
Speaker 2: a Sunday morning, he felt really good after eating breakfast,

531
00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:42,399
Speaker 2: ready to run the race and his orange Wheedies T

532
00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:45,879
Speaker 2: shirt nothing could go bib pinned to his shorts. Have

533
00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:48,560
Speaker 2: been looking forward to this race for a while. He's

534
00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:52,080
Speaker 2: got a Wheedy's T shirt. Jesus Saves. This man is

535
00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:57,159
Speaker 2: an American flag. The college football player who has no

536
00:25:57,320 --> 00:26:00,000
Speaker 2: history of heart trouble was running eight minute miles until

537
00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:02,800
Speaker 2: the eighth mile when he collapsed, cracking his hand on

538
00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:06,160
Speaker 2: the paper. According to the Saint Paul Pioneer Press, oh

539
00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:11,359
Speaker 2: no fully, a runner named Jesus quote Jesse Bueno, a

540
00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:18,000
Speaker 2: Lakeville registered nurse anesthetics behind it was right behind and

541
00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:22,160
Speaker 2: quickly saved his life like right exactly, Jesus, not Jesus,

542
00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:26,399
Speaker 2: alongside another colleague and other medical professionals for him chest

543
00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:31,240
Speaker 2: compressions and assisted his breathing until the ambulance arrived. Moon,

544
00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:34,520
Speaker 2: still adjusting after going through cardiac arrest a concussion of

545
00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:36,920
Speaker 2: broken bones in his face, said he is grateful, thank

546
00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:38,439
Speaker 2: you to everyone who helped me, and thanks to all

547
00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:40,960
Speaker 2: the runners who stopped and saved my life. I believe

548
00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:42,960
Speaker 2: God placed all these people there at the right time

549
00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:45,760
Speaker 2: and the right place for his glory. I think he

550
00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:48,600
Speaker 2: missed out on an opportunity to say thank you Jesus.

551
00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:50,199
Speaker 1: But yeah, there it is.

552
00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:53,800
Speaker 2: Wow, and that's it. I'm so lucky.

553
00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:54,920
Speaker 1: Now.

554
00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:57,199
Speaker 4: I got a question for you guys, sir, Yes, do

555
00:26:57,240 --> 00:26:58,320
Speaker 4: you see this as?

556
00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:00,280
Speaker 3: While?

557
00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:03,280
Speaker 4: Do you see this as I wonder at what point

558
00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:07,280
Speaker 4: nurse Jesus steps in, because in my head he's going

559
00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:11,000
Speaker 4: the guys down, but I gotta keep going, right, He's like, oh,

560
00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:14,400
Speaker 4: come on, you know he sees He's like, well I

561
00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:14,919
Speaker 4: have to.

562
00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:19,119
Speaker 1: Now. He might have been running his personal best, and

563
00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:21,840
Speaker 1: he might have. He really might be. It might really

564
00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:24,040
Speaker 1: be Jesus. I mean, we don't know. It's too soon

565
00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:26,560
Speaker 1: to tell, but it could be. That seems like a

566
00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:27,320
Speaker 1: very christ.

567
00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:30,240
Speaker 2: Also, it could be that he was having a tough

568
00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:32,640
Speaker 2: time right at that moment and he's like, here's my out,

569
00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:36,919
Speaker 2: don't have to run anymore. Yes, and I get to

570
00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:37,920
Speaker 2: save the day.

571
00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:42,480
Speaker 1: Yes, that's pretty good. Mamory are our former guest. Memory Heart,

572
00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:45,720
Speaker 1: the Great and Powerful memory Heart used to do a

573
00:27:45,760 --> 00:27:48,520
Speaker 1: thing for the New York City Marathon called the Bloody Marathon.

574
00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:51,560
Speaker 1: So same day she made all these shirts, she made

575
00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:54,479
Speaker 1: bibs for everybody, and she contacted all these bars. So

576
00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:57,800
Speaker 1: while the real Bloody Marathon, or while the real New

577
00:27:57,840 --> 00:28:00,600
Speaker 1: York Marathon was taking place, she's started. And then it

578
00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:03,280
Speaker 1: was a bar crawl that crossed the path bar to bar,

579
00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:05,520
Speaker 1: and you would drink a different Bloody Marry at each one.

580
00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:07,000
Speaker 1: So it was like you drink and watch.

581
00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:08,920
Speaker 2: The and and you would watch them go by each

582
00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:10,200
Speaker 2: time exactly.

583
00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:11,439
Speaker 1: And you would have to wait because they would, like

584
00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:13,320
Speaker 1: a pack of runners would go by. Then they would

585
00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:15,840
Speaker 1: all cross drunk with their T shirts. That memory made

586
00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:18,440
Speaker 1: into a bar, drink another Bloody Mary, and then wait

587
00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:20,199
Speaker 1: for another pack and go to another bar. And I

588
00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:22,800
Speaker 1: always thought that that should have become like a national thing,

589
00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:25,119
Speaker 1: Like I couldn't believe it didn't get way bigger.

590
00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:27,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, no kidding, that's such a.

591
00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:30,840
Speaker 3: Like that's the pinnacle. I love that.

592
00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:32,960
Speaker 4: I used to be a track runner, and I did

593
00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:35,119
Speaker 4: have that feeling once I got to college, like wait,

594
00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:37,080
Speaker 4: I don't have to do this.

595
00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:37,840
Speaker 3: I love that.

596
00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:40,320
Speaker 4: It's like it's like, yeah, oh I could do a marathon,

597
00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:43,880
Speaker 4: or wait, I could do a much more fun thing.

598
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,880
Speaker 1: Yes, wait, And then you I had the same moment,

599
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:50,200
Speaker 1: did you? Did you stop being an athlete or at

600
00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:53,040
Speaker 1: least competitively and then switch to comedy around the same

601
00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:54,640
Speaker 1: time I did too.

602
00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:57,240
Speaker 4: I did, And I remember, Okay, so I just talked

603
00:28:57,240 --> 00:28:59,360
Speaker 4: about this recently, but I do remember this feeling.

604
00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:01,200
Speaker 3: Of like I loved the team aspect of running. I

605
00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:01,920
Speaker 3: did love all.

606
00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:04,480
Speaker 4: That, but I dreaded running. Yeah, and then once I

607
00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:07,280
Speaker 4: got to comedy, it was like, I love the community

608
00:29:07,600 --> 00:29:09,720
Speaker 4: and I love the actual thing. It felt like, oh,

609
00:29:09,760 --> 00:29:11,440
Speaker 4: I don't have to dread the thing in order to

610
00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:12,200
Speaker 4: get the community.

611
00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:12,600
Speaker 2: Yeah.

612
00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:15,680
Speaker 1: Yes, I had this weird moment and it actually was

613
00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:19,200
Speaker 1: a life changing moment where I played La Cross and

614
00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:21,520
Speaker 1: I came from a town where everybody was really great

615
00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:23,680
Speaker 1: at it, and then I went up to I went

616
00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:27,520
Speaker 1: to from basically Reisterstown, Maryland. So Maryland, Maryland is like

617
00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:29,840
Speaker 1: we do a lot of that. But I went to UMass.

618
00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:31,280
Speaker 1: I went to you mass Amherst, and they had a

619
00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:34,840
Speaker 1: pretty bomb team at the time, and so I there

620
00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:36,600
Speaker 1: were three of us that were walking on and it

621
00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:40,200
Speaker 1: was a goalie, defenseman myself. I played midfield, and the

622
00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:42,960
Speaker 1: coach was this guy, I think coach Knela, and he

623
00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:45,760
Speaker 1: said on the first walk on practice, he's like, only

624
00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:48,480
Speaker 1: one of you is going to make the team. Probably

625
00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:50,520
Speaker 1: none of you will play till your juniors because we

626
00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:53,520
Speaker 1: have scholarship athletes that have to go first before you,

627
00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:55,960
Speaker 1: and like so we would have to been like incredibly

628
00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:59,640
Speaker 1: great to even get playing time. And even before he finished,

629
00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:02,400
Speaker 1: I was I'm quitting. I'm gonna walk out in two seconds.

630
00:30:02,640 --> 00:30:05,560
Speaker 1: And so as soon as he stopped talking, I was

631
00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:07,160
Speaker 1: like coach Cane, It's so nice to meet you. Good

632
00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:09,360
Speaker 1: luck this season, put my helmet on my stick walked

633
00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:11,360
Speaker 1: and while I was walking back to my dorm, I

634
00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:14,400
Speaker 1: decided to create a sketch comedy TV show instead, and

635
00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:16,400
Speaker 1: I went to my buddy Dan, who I think listened

636
00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:18,320
Speaker 1: to the pod and we created a show called Feeding

637
00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:20,120
Speaker 1: the Ducks that you messed at like won every war.

638
00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:22,520
Speaker 1: It totally changed my life. But in that exact moment,

639
00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:24,360
Speaker 1: I was like, I don't want to try this hard

640
00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:28,520
Speaker 1: sports and it was like somebody's show. It's like her,

641
00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:30,800
Speaker 1: it's exactly like you said. It's like maybe hey, Sus

642
00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:33,840
Speaker 1: was like just winded and like had a did not

643
00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:37,440
Speaker 1: want to continue. I was heyesus and Coach Canelo was

644
00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:39,960
Speaker 1: our buddy that smashed his head and I was like

645
00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:43,080
Speaker 1: and change of course for the rest of my life.

646
00:30:43,160 --> 00:30:44,760
Speaker 1: It was a great moment. I think a lot of

647
00:30:44,800 --> 00:30:45,760
Speaker 1: people will get sad.

648
00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:49,760
Speaker 4: I love that, and I love that is also like

649
00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:51,920
Speaker 4: a fuck guess approach where it's like if you like

650
00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:53,600
Speaker 4: there are probably people who heard that and were like,

651
00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:55,120
Speaker 4: I don't care, I'm gonna try.

652
00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:58,160
Speaker 3: I'm gonna because I love this enough, And that's how

653
00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:01,240
Speaker 3: you should be and that's probably with comedy it's hard.

654
00:31:01,520 --> 00:31:03,480
Speaker 3: I mean, this career is crazy and funny.

655
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:07,000
Speaker 4: But if you want, if you love it and love

656
00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:09,440
Speaker 4: the process, then you're like, yeah, I don't really care

657
00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:10,560
Speaker 4: if the odds are low.

658
00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:11,560
Speaker 3: I love the process.

659
00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:13,120
Speaker 4: But yeah, with sports, I was like, if the odds

660
00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:14,720
Speaker 4: are low, I hate the process.

661
00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:15,000
Speaker 1: Yeah.

662
00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:20,640
Speaker 2: I never I never connected with sports, and it was

663
00:31:20,680 --> 00:31:23,240
Speaker 2: not for lack of trying, because you know my mom.

664
00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:25,640
Speaker 2: I was very much a mama's boy growing up, and

665
00:31:25,760 --> 00:31:29,479
Speaker 2: I was a single mom and very sensitive, and I

666
00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:31,880
Speaker 2: remember going to see it was this is when all

667
00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:34,959
Speaker 2: the sports started in my life. I went to go

668
00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:37,960
Speaker 2: see ET for the second time with my uncle and

669
00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:40,880
Speaker 2: it was so crowded in the theater that we couldn't

670
00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:43,800
Speaker 2: sit together. I must have been five years old, and

671
00:31:43,880 --> 00:31:47,400
Speaker 2: so I was sitting by myself and he was sitting elsewhere.

672
00:31:47,840 --> 00:31:51,200
Speaker 2: And then in the middle of the movie, before anything

673
00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:55,480
Speaker 2: sad started happening, I started like ball riding because I

674
00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:59,680
Speaker 2: knew what was coming. And then he like took he

675
00:31:59,800 --> 00:32:03,160
Speaker 2: like forcibly removed me because he was like of that

676
00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:07,560
Speaker 2: age where like boys don't cry something's wrong with you.

677
00:32:07,560 --> 00:32:10,240
Speaker 2: You're living with your mom, you're gonna be gay, and

678
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:13,520
Speaker 2: like then made me do all of these sports. I

679
00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:17,480
Speaker 2: did every single sport from like age seven to fourteen.

680
00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:19,680
Speaker 2: Until I was like fourteen, I was like, I don't

681
00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:22,240
Speaker 2: like any of them. I'm not doing it. I'm doing theater.

682
00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:24,720
Speaker 2: And my mom was like, that's okay, just do theater.

683
00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:27,840
Speaker 1: And they're like I'm tall, he's tall, he'll be good.

684
00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:29,640
Speaker 1: And then it's like, no, I don't want to do this.

685
00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:31,360
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna be good. But you're a good surfer.

686
00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:33,880
Speaker 1: Surfing's a tougher sport than almost any of those other ones.

687
00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:35,640
Speaker 1: And I got into that by myself, do you know

688
00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:37,000
Speaker 1: what I mean. It was never like all right, now

689
00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:38,680
Speaker 1: you're gonna go play basketball. Now you're gonna go to

690
00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:40,520
Speaker 1: basketball camp. Now you're gonna play soccer. Now you're gonna

691
00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:43,120
Speaker 1: play baseball. Played them all except for football, and I

692
00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:44,920
Speaker 1: just never I never never.

693
00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:47,640
Speaker 2: Connected with it ever, ever, ever until I did comedy

694
00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:50,440
Speaker 2: and was on an improv team, and then that was

695
00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:52,280
Speaker 2: the first time where I was like, oh, now I

696
00:32:52,360 --> 00:32:55,640
Speaker 2: get this group thing. I like this, oh totally.

697
00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:58,360
Speaker 4: I mean, that's a really beautiful feeling, Like I feel

698
00:32:58,760 --> 00:33:02,360
Speaker 4: really grateful for that. Remember that feeling of just like, oh,

699
00:33:02,400 --> 00:33:04,960
Speaker 4: like this is this is rightly everyone here kind of

700
00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:07,800
Speaker 4: feels like my people, maybe I haven't felt this before

701
00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:08,680
Speaker 4: and like these.

702
00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:11,360
Speaker 3: Now Yeah, just everything kind of made sense. That's a

703
00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:12,000
Speaker 3: nice feeling.

704
00:33:12,160 --> 00:33:14,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, those victories feel like bigger wins too. It's like

705
00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:16,680
Speaker 1: when you make that first improv team or you do

706
00:33:16,800 --> 00:33:18,880
Speaker 1: your first open MIC's stand up set. It's like, and

707
00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:21,280
Speaker 1: it goes okay, or even if it goes bad, but

708
00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:25,080
Speaker 1: you're like, the sense of accomplishment must be what athletes feel,

709
00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:29,240
Speaker 1: but just it's totally different for performers and comedians totally.

710
00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:30,800
Speaker 3: By the way, study I went to Middlebury. Do you

711
00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:34,040
Speaker 3: know Middlebury yaues. Yes, I feel we were. I feel

712
00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:36,560
Speaker 3: we were a lacrosse cabin. Yes, I feel I feel

713
00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:37,760
Speaker 3: yeah bad.

714
00:33:38,120 --> 00:33:41,040
Speaker 2: So you you make up your major in Middlebury right

715
00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:41,880
Speaker 2: or now.

716
00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:44,680
Speaker 3: Liberal arts so basically.

717
00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:46,400
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, that's fun.

718
00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:46,800
Speaker 3: Yeah.

719
00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:49,560
Speaker 4: Look, lacrosse was like I didn't even know about lacrosse

720
00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:51,160
Speaker 4: till I got to Middlebury, and then it was like

721
00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:52,040
Speaker 4: a whole world.

722
00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:55,600
Speaker 1: Yeah that's uh, it is. It's like we just all

723
00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:57,280
Speaker 1: grew up playing it. But it's fine. Like most people,

724
00:33:57,360 --> 00:33:59,400
Speaker 1: most places and probably a lot of people around the world,

725
00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:01,480
Speaker 1: have no idea dea what it is, but like it's fun,

726
00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:03,680
Speaker 1: it's a fast paced thing. It was easy to put away.

727
00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:06,160
Speaker 1: I certainly miss soccer way more than that. And it's

728
00:34:06,200 --> 00:34:08,799
Speaker 1: like I never think, like now, Hollywood and this kind

729
00:34:08,840 --> 00:34:12,160
Speaker 1: of crap is so competitive, like everything You're getting rejected constantly,

730
00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:15,080
Speaker 1: You're trying constantly, and you're always like either about to

731
00:34:15,120 --> 00:34:17,520
Speaker 1: get something or it's so far away that now when

732
00:34:17,520 --> 00:34:19,040
Speaker 1: people are like, hey, dude, we have a we need

733
00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:20,680
Speaker 1: somebody to fill in in a co ed soccer league.

734

Speaker 1: Do you want to play, I'm like, hell no, I'm

735
00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:25,799
Speaker 1: so like my life is so competitive already. The last

736
00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:28,319
Speaker 1: thing I need is to like not play soccer well

737
00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:31,000
Speaker 1: for a day. And then I'm like Jesus am I

738

Speaker 1: there at age eight. The pain in Mary McCarthy's nose

785
00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:28,680
Speaker 1: only only worsened last year, getting a COVID nineteen test.

786
00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:33,360
Speaker 1: Having both nasal cavities swabbed and poked up high. She

787
00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:37,719
Speaker 1: soon underwent surgery to find out the cause of this

788
00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:43,280
Speaker 1: painful irritation. Surgeons were shocked to pull out a yellow

789
00:37:43,320 --> 00:37:47,040
Speaker 1: Tiddleywink piece she had lodged in her nose since she

790
00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:49,080
Speaker 1: was a child. The piece had been stuck up her

791
00:37:49,120 --> 00:37:53,000
Speaker 1: nose for so long calcified matter had started to grow

792
00:37:53,040 --> 00:37:58,319
Speaker 1: around it. That is disgusting. The extraction allowed hospital kitchen

793
00:37:58,360 --> 00:38:00,800
Speaker 1: worker to breathe through her right notes for the first

794
00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:03,840
Speaker 1: time in eight months. Well that's a good thing, ummm,

795
00:38:04,200 --> 00:38:07,640
Speaker 1: because it calls an affection ummmm, after it got poked

796
00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:11,600
Speaker 1: by the COVID stick. So now recovering from home, the

797
00:38:11,680 --> 00:38:14,800
Speaker 1: forty five year old recalls, here's your answer. Lissa recalls

798
00:38:14,840 --> 00:38:17,759
Speaker 1: playing the game with her seven siblings as an eight

799
00:38:17,800 --> 00:38:21,719
Speaker 1: year old child, and vividly remembers putting pieces up their

800
00:38:21,719 --> 00:38:23,960
Speaker 1: nose and blowing them out to see how far they

801
00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:28,120
Speaker 1: would go. Classic kid stuff. Stick it up your nose,

802
00:38:28,520 --> 00:38:30,680
Speaker 1: You got the holes? What can you do with it?

803
00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:33,239
Speaker 3: The internet and kids are on their phones. It's like,

804
00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:34,200
Speaker 3: it's a good thing we have.

805
00:38:37,160 --> 00:38:40,319
Speaker 1: Past the time, you know, right, So what they'll be

806
00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:42,920
Speaker 1: blind at forty They don't get stuff stuck up their

807
00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:49,120
Speaker 1: nose anymore. One time I accidentally inhaled instead of blowing

808
00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:51,160
Speaker 1: it out, she said, But I was a bit too

809
00:38:51,239 --> 00:38:53,680
Speaker 1: scared to tell my mother, So I did not. I

810
00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:57,720
Speaker 1: remembered being terrified all the time, thinking where has it gone?

811
00:38:58,480 --> 00:39:03,480
Speaker 1: I always had difficulty breathing through my breathing through my

812
00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:06,080
Speaker 1: nose over the years, but I forgot and never gave

813
00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:10,719
Speaker 1: it much thought. Tidleywinks, as Carti b said, is a

814
00:39:10,760 --> 00:39:13,640
Speaker 1: game from England device in the eighteen sixties, which involves

815
00:39:13,640 --> 00:39:17,680
Speaker 1: a squidgeer made to shoot a small wink into a pot.

816
00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:20,480
Speaker 1: She said. After her COVID test, Ms McCarthy was in

817
00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:23,200
Speaker 1: pain for several days and does develop the sinus issues

818
00:39:23,239 --> 00:39:27,680
Speaker 1: that ultimately led to her nose leaking non stop and

819
00:39:27,960 --> 00:39:32,520
Speaker 1: bar further. So what do you do when you are

820
00:39:32,560 --> 00:39:35,799
Speaker 1: a medical worker. She went to the emergency department at

821
00:39:35,840 --> 00:39:40,600
Speaker 1: christ Church Hospital and doctors realized with an s something

822
00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:43,600
Speaker 1: was seriously wrong. She had a CT scan which showed

823
00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:47,279
Speaker 1: an object lodged far up inside her nose, but it

824
00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:52,640
Speaker 1: proved too difficult to extract when she was awake. Oh

825
00:39:52,719 --> 00:39:55,719
Speaker 1: the operation was a success. Thank goodness, Mary. We laugh

826
00:39:55,800 --> 00:39:58,799
Speaker 1: with you and a little bit at you. But she's

827
00:39:58,840 --> 00:40:03,080
Speaker 1: been allowed to keep the hiddleywink as a memento. Did

828
00:40:03,640 --> 00:40:04,560
Speaker 1: you say christ Church?

829
00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:05,960
Speaker 2: Is this in New Zealand?

830
00:40:06,440 --> 00:40:08,920
Speaker 1: Hospital I believe it was in England, but she might

831
00:40:08,960 --> 00:40:12,520
Speaker 1: live in England. She's a I don't know. I actually

832
00:40:12,520 --> 00:40:13,440
Speaker 1: take that back, I don't know.

833
00:40:14,840 --> 00:40:17,480
Speaker 2: Sounds like a place that has socialized medicine. If you

834
00:40:17,640 --> 00:40:21,600
Speaker 2: can go to the doctor, you monsters, all the monsters

835
00:40:21,600 --> 00:40:24,080
Speaker 2: out there, get to the doctor. You can't breathe. There's

836
00:40:24,160 --> 00:40:25,440
Speaker 2: probably a reason for it.

837
00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:25,880
Speaker 1: Yeah.

838
00:40:25,920 --> 00:40:27,480
Speaker 2: Here in America, we can't say good.

839
00:40:27,360 --> 00:40:28,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, and Maggie de pains a way of life here

840
00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:31,720
Speaker 1: in the States, and we tough it out and we suck.

841
00:40:32,960 --> 00:40:36,439
Speaker 1: My god. Can you imagine though, just like like as

842
00:40:36,480 --> 00:40:40,200
Speaker 1: a child, having that feeling of like I did something wrong,

843
00:40:40,520 --> 00:40:45,040
Speaker 1: this is not good, and then you just forget and

844
00:40:45,080 --> 00:40:47,040
Speaker 1: you hope for the best. I think we've all done

845
00:40:47,160 --> 00:40:49,600
Speaker 1: things knowing that it's bad, and then we hope for

846
00:40:49,680 --> 00:40:52,479
Speaker 1: the best. And comes back to Hontu, it's come.

847
00:40:52,440 --> 00:40:54,319
Speaker 3: Up and you know it really is a good life

848
00:40:54,440 --> 00:40:55,120
Speaker 3: lesson exactly.

849
00:40:55,120 --> 00:40:58,040
Speaker 4: It's like, deal with the thing up your nose right away,

850
00:40:58,120 --> 00:41:03,160
Speaker 4: because otherwise Telsifiant thirty seven seven, how's a fly?

851
00:41:03,239 --> 00:41:05,520
Speaker 3: And they're gonna let you keep it. They were probably

852
00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:07,239
Speaker 3: like take this out of the host.

853
00:41:07,360 --> 00:41:09,880
Speaker 1: If you see something, if you feel something, say something,

854
00:41:10,040 --> 00:41:14,040
Speaker 1: sooner than later to our eight year old banimals. God,

855
00:41:14,080 --> 00:41:17,120
Speaker 1: I hope we have no eight year old and animals

856
00:41:17,400 --> 00:41:20,200
Speaker 1: I had. This is not the same exact thing, but

857
00:41:20,280 --> 00:41:22,600
Speaker 1: the story that this sparked in my head. So when

858
00:41:22,600 --> 00:41:25,760
Speaker 1: I was when I was in college, my grandmother passed away.

859
00:41:25,920 --> 00:41:28,960
Speaker 1: I hadn't seen her for a while because she had dementia. Uh,

860
00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:31,360
Speaker 1: and so by the end it was it was not

861
00:41:31,480 --> 00:41:33,759
Speaker 1: a good look. So I did not see her in

862
00:41:33,800 --> 00:41:36,960
Speaker 1: sort of that last year. But so when I go

863
00:41:37,040 --> 00:41:39,319
Speaker 1: to the funeral home for the sort of viewing, it

864
00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:41,959
Speaker 1: was my uncles and a couple of my cousins people

865
00:41:41,960 --> 00:41:44,560
Speaker 1: haven't seen a long time. I return home, I walk

866
00:41:44,600 --> 00:41:47,240
Speaker 1: into the room. My grandmother's in an open casket across

867
00:41:47,239 --> 00:41:50,880
Speaker 1: this long room and say, hey, the fam and I

868
00:41:50,960 --> 00:41:53,440
Speaker 1: walk over. You know, there's a little pew to kneel

869
00:41:53,480 --> 00:41:55,320
Speaker 1: on or whatever those are called, and so kind of

870
00:41:55,360 --> 00:41:57,920
Speaker 1: saying my goodbyes, shed a few tears and take a

871
00:41:57,960 --> 00:41:59,719
Speaker 1: look at her. And my thought is like, she looks

872
00:41:59,719 --> 00:42:02,080
Speaker 1: pretty gut Like I thought she was gonna look worse.

873
00:42:02,560 --> 00:42:05,280
Speaker 1: I thought the uh, the funeral home directors or whoever

874
00:42:05,600 --> 00:42:09,719
Speaker 1: did a great job, and uh, she she looked a

875
00:42:09,719 --> 00:42:11,600
Speaker 1: little different, but I didn't know what it was. So

876
00:42:11,640 --> 00:42:13,440
Speaker 1: I came back and I was talking to my family

877
00:42:13,840 --> 00:42:16,480
Speaker 1: and they were like, uh, did you notice the glasses?

878
00:42:17,200 --> 00:42:19,480
Speaker 1: And I was like, yeah, I didn't know she wore glasses,

879
00:42:19,560 --> 00:42:21,880
Speaker 1: and they said, oh she didn't. We don't know whose

880
00:42:21,920 --> 00:42:25,120
Speaker 1: glasses those are. Your grandmother never wore glasses a day

881
00:42:25,160 --> 00:42:28,920
Speaker 1: in her life, but that just glaes. Whoever did her

882
00:42:28,920 --> 00:42:31,000
Speaker 1: makeup in her hair and got her dress just put

883
00:42:31,080 --> 00:42:33,960
Speaker 1: somebody else's glasses on her in this open casket. And

884
00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:36,160
Speaker 1: then we all were like, well, she looks pretty good,

885
00:42:36,239 --> 00:42:38,359
Speaker 1: like she looked kind of smart in them. So as

886
00:42:38,400 --> 00:42:42,320
Speaker 1: far as I know, she was buried in somebody else's glasses.

887
00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:44,400
Speaker 4: Because I love that, like I love just like the

888
00:42:44,480 --> 00:42:46,520
Speaker 4: stylist in the back, like, no, it's not working.

889
00:42:46,560 --> 00:42:47,680
Speaker 3: There's something off.

890
00:42:47,600 --> 00:42:49,759
Speaker 1: Yes glasses, you know.

891
00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:50,239
Speaker 4: Yeah.

892
00:42:50,320 --> 00:42:52,080
Speaker 1: Or they were having a day and there's just two

893
00:42:52,200 --> 00:42:54,640
Speaker 1: corpses laying there and they were like holding up the

894
00:42:54,640 --> 00:42:56,560
Speaker 1: glasses over each one, and we're like, which ones do

895
00:42:56,680 --> 00:43:00,200
Speaker 1: these suit more? The old lady or the teddy as

896
00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:02,920
Speaker 1: a belt looking guy because they sort of were teddy

897
00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:06,440
Speaker 1: Roosevelt ask But we all thought she looked awesome and

898
00:43:06,480 --> 00:43:08,920
Speaker 1: smart and like like an old professor. So we just

899
00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:12,040

00:45:24,120 --> 00:45:29,120
Speaker 2: skin a striking indigo blue. The couple went on to

941
00:45:29,160 --> 00:45:31,840
Speaker 2: have seven children, and four of them, like their father,

942
00:45:31,960 --> 00:45:36,279
Speaker 2: had blue skin. Fast forward to the seventies and Benjamin

943
00:45:36,360 --> 00:45:38,959
Speaker 2: Stacy has just been born. Stacy is the great great

944
00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:42,200
Speaker 2: great great great grandson of Martin Fugate and Elizabeth Smith.

945
00:45:42,520 --> 00:45:44,759
Speaker 2: But by this point the blue people of Kentucky are

946
00:45:44,800 --> 00:45:47,520
Speaker 2: just a memory. Yet, to the surprise of his parents

947
00:45:47,560 --> 00:45:53,759
Speaker 2: and the hospital staff, Stacy inherits the family's distinctive blue colorow. Yes,

948
00:45:54,040 --> 00:46:01,360
Speaker 2: so the baby what nineteen seventies. Yes, Oh, this is

949
00:46:01,400 --> 00:46:07,440
Speaker 2: because of a condition called methemo globinemia, which causes metho

950
00:46:07,480 --> 00:46:10,200
Speaker 2: globlin levels and the red blood cells to rise above

951
00:46:10,200 --> 00:46:13,920
Speaker 2: one percent. The ones blue, the lips purple, and the

952
00:46:13,960 --> 00:46:21,840
Speaker 2: blood a chocolate brown. Methoemoglobinimia triggered by exposure to particular chemicals,

953
00:46:21,880 --> 00:46:23,720
Speaker 2: but in this case it was inherited and the product

954
00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:26,600
Speaker 2: of a faulty gene that most probably caused a deficiency

955
00:46:26,680 --> 00:46:30,680
Speaker 2: in an enzyme called cytochrome B five metho globylin reductase.

956
00:46:30,800 --> 00:46:33,680
Speaker 2: Thank you, Thank you for getting into it. Rosy McCall

957
00:46:33,840 --> 00:46:34,960
Speaker 2: we get into it.

958
00:46:35,120 --> 00:46:39,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know that started as like poetic, sort of

959
00:46:39,239 --> 00:46:42,239
Speaker 4: like filmic, you know, so like I was in a

960
00:46:42,320 --> 00:46:44,640
Speaker 4: field almost like so I could see it.

961
00:46:44,560 --> 00:46:52,200
Speaker 3: It was like a palm and it did yeah in

962
00:46:52,239 --> 00:46:52,839
Speaker 3: a nice way.

963
00:46:53,040 --> 00:46:56,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, really really well written. To get quotes, you know,

964
00:46:56,400 --> 00:46:58,840
Speaker 2: it was really well researched. If there's a quote about

965
00:46:58,880 --> 00:47:00,600
Speaker 2: the way that the wife loos, because then there's no

966
00:47:00,719 --> 00:47:04,240
Speaker 2: the wife has nothing to do with the story, yes, yes,

967
00:47:05,200 --> 00:47:09,200
Speaker 2: so yeah, so these people were blue, and people like

968
00:47:09,320 --> 00:47:12,799
Speaker 2: avoided them because back in the day, apparently this was

969
00:47:14,200 --> 00:47:19,240
Speaker 2: known to be caused by incest. Uh, and so people

970
00:47:19,320 --> 00:47:21,600
Speaker 2: like who were blue you stay away from because you

971
00:47:21,600 --> 00:47:24,000
Speaker 2: don't want to get their genes, but you know, instead

972
00:47:24,040 --> 00:47:26,000
Speaker 2: it just came out as kind of a probably a

973
00:47:26,000 --> 00:47:30,880
Speaker 2: weird racism or blue skin colorism. And yeah, so this

974
00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:34,920
Speaker 2: person got it and it was isn't that so strange?

975
00:47:34,960 --> 00:47:35,399
Speaker 1: It is?

976
00:47:35,680 --> 00:47:39,399
Speaker 2: I it really did you see a photo like, are

977
00:47:39,400 --> 00:47:42,840
Speaker 2: they like there is blue man blue? Okay, there is

978
00:47:42,880 --> 00:47:45,520
Speaker 2: a painting. It's not dark blue.

979
00:47:45,719 --> 00:47:48,279
Speaker 1: A dumb question. They're not blue Man blue. We would

980
00:47:48,440 --> 00:47:50,280
Speaker 1: know about them. They would have been on Johnny Carson

981
00:47:50,360 --> 00:47:50,879
Speaker 1: every year.

982
00:47:52,719 --> 00:47:55,440
Speaker 2: It is. It's almost like a turquoise. It's like a

983
00:47:55,520 --> 00:47:56,160
Speaker 2: light blue.

984
00:47:56,239 --> 00:47:56,920
Speaker 1: It's beautiful.

985
00:47:57,920 --> 00:47:59,960
Speaker 2: And it's what's weird too, is that not everyone of

986
00:48:00,080 --> 00:48:02,600
Speaker 2: the family has it. So the painting is of the family.

987
00:48:02,880 --> 00:48:05,640
Speaker 2: They have seven children and only four of them are blue.

988
00:48:06,040 --> 00:48:08,840
Speaker 2: And it's so crazy. It's very very crazy looking.

989
00:48:08,880 --> 00:48:11,480
Speaker 3: And also second story with seven children.

990
00:48:13,840 --> 00:48:19,240
Speaker 2: Going keep and going. I remember there was a road

991
00:48:20,080 --> 00:48:22,080
Speaker 2: in tinton Falls, New Jersey.

992
00:48:22,080 --> 00:48:22,640
Speaker 1: Sounds fun.

993
00:48:23,040 --> 00:48:26,600
Speaker 2: Who is called Essex Road, but everyone referred to it

994
00:48:26,640 --> 00:48:30,440
Speaker 2: as Albino Road. And when you would drive down it,

995
00:48:30,440 --> 00:48:34,400
Speaker 2: it was a you know, it was a road that

996
00:48:34,560 --> 00:48:37,480
Speaker 2: just wasn't a through road for anything. It was just

997
00:48:37,560 --> 00:48:40,040
Speaker 2: in the woods and hadn't been developed yet. I'm sure

998
00:48:40,040 --> 00:48:43,160
Speaker 2: it's developed now, oh yeah. And there was one house

999
00:48:43,600 --> 00:48:46,920
Speaker 2: that sat crumbling in the woods, and then all along

1000
00:48:46,960 --> 00:48:51,600
Speaker 2: the road people had spray painted like satanists shit, and

1001
00:48:51,680 --> 00:48:54,200
Speaker 2: like an outline of a body where it was like

1002
00:48:54,360 --> 00:48:59,200
Speaker 2: dead body here. And then there was this whole story

1003
00:48:59,520 --> 00:49:02,960
Speaker 2: that there was like, uh that in that house there

1004
00:49:03,040 --> 00:49:05,120
Speaker 2: was a group of albinos who if you stopped the

1005
00:49:05,120 --> 00:49:07,720
Speaker 2: car they would kill you or murder you or whatever

1006
00:49:07,760 --> 00:49:10,080
Speaker 2: it was. But it just because of the fact that

1007
00:49:10,120 --> 00:49:12,600
Speaker 2: it was through like an uninhabited area. There was no

1008
00:49:12,680 --> 00:49:16,080
Speaker 2: street lights, so the road was inherently creepy. But it

1009
00:49:16,120 --> 00:49:18,440
Speaker 2: really just was like a country road in an area

1010
00:49:18,480 --> 00:49:22,160
Speaker 2: that was suburbia, you know, and it was but like

1011
00:49:22,520 --> 00:49:26,319
Speaker 2: it freaked us out as a child, even when I

1012
00:49:26,400 --> 00:49:30,160
Speaker 2: started driving, like going down it at night, like the

1013
00:49:30,239 --> 00:49:32,000
Speaker 2: thing to do in high school was to turn your

1014
00:49:32,080 --> 00:49:34,000
Speaker 2: lights off and try and make it from like one

1015
00:49:34,160 --> 00:49:35,840
Speaker 2: end of it to the other end. Or just like

1016
00:49:35,920 --> 00:49:41,360
Speaker 2: two miles or something, and it was fucking terrifying. It

1017
00:49:41,480 --> 00:49:44,000
Speaker 2: was very scary, too odd. They say, driving without lights,

1018
00:49:44,040 --> 00:49:45,160
Speaker 2: it's very scary wherever.

1019
00:49:46,719 --> 00:49:50,600
Speaker 4: Yeah wow, But but were there Now you grow up

1020
00:49:50,600 --> 00:49:52,680
Speaker 4: and it's kind of like, oh that they probably felt.

1021
00:49:52,680 --> 00:49:53,640
Speaker 3: So what were their.

1022
00:49:53,560 --> 00:49:54,719
Speaker 1: Actual dybody live?

1023
00:49:54,760 --> 00:49:56,759
Speaker 2: There was no nobody lived.

1024
00:49:56,920 --> 00:49:59,279
Speaker 1: Oh, just urban legend, just.

1025
00:49:59,239 --> 00:50:01,680
Speaker 2: An urban legend, just her house rotting in the woods.

1026
00:50:01,840 --> 00:50:03,799
Speaker 2: It was just an abandoned house, that's all it was.

1027
00:50:04,080 --> 00:50:09,200
Speaker 2: And then there was just this whole story God like written, Yeah, I.

1028
00:50:09,120 --> 00:50:11,000
Speaker 4: Don't care what the road is once it turns night,

1029
00:50:11,040 --> 00:50:12,480
Speaker 4: I'm scared anywhere, you know.

1030
00:50:12,680 --> 00:50:15,360
Speaker 3: I'm like, yeah, being a kid being in like the

1031
00:50:15,400 --> 00:50:16,160
Speaker 3: woods or whatever.

1032
00:50:16,239 --> 00:50:17,920
Speaker 4: I can't believe we do that because now I'm like

1033
00:50:17,960 --> 00:50:20,160
Speaker 4: on a main road and I am like, I gotta

1034
00:50:20,160 --> 00:50:20,640
Speaker 4: get it's.

1035
00:50:20,520 --> 00:50:21,960
Speaker 3: It's all the prefrontal cortex.

1036
00:50:22,160 --> 00:50:24,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, Yeah.

1037
00:50:24,520 --> 00:50:26,880
Speaker 1: There's a there's a pretty good haunted road in Maryland

1038
00:50:26,880 --> 00:50:29,400
Speaker 1: called Upper Melinda that like is this windy road that

1039
00:50:29,480 --> 00:50:32,280
Speaker 1: goes down to a mushroom farm, which is already creepy,

1040
00:50:32,400 --> 00:50:36,320
Speaker 1: and there's a stone that says Upper Melinda on the stone,

1041
00:50:36,360 --> 00:50:39,280
Speaker 1: and there's a legend that in that in my town

1042
00:50:39,800 --> 00:50:42,800
Speaker 1: that there was a woman named Melinda that everybody accused

1043
00:50:42,840 --> 00:50:45,200
Speaker 1: of being a witch, even though she probably was just

1044
00:50:45,320 --> 00:50:48,120
Speaker 1: like missed one church day once and they were like,

1045
00:50:48,200 --> 00:50:51,360
Speaker 1: that's her. Get here. And apparently she fled from town

1046
00:50:51,560 --> 00:50:53,560
Speaker 1: and then night fell and they chased her into the

1047
00:50:53,560 --> 00:50:55,719
Speaker 1: woods and the dogs lost the scent. They couldn't find her,

1048
00:50:55,760 --> 00:50:58,239
Speaker 1: and then in the morning when they came uh, they

1049
00:50:58,280 --> 00:51:01,440
Speaker 1: found her the upper half of her torso hanging. She

1050
00:51:01,480 --> 00:51:04,080
Speaker 1: had hung herself, and they think animals had eaten the

1051
00:51:04,080 --> 00:51:07,120
Speaker 1: lower half, so they named it Upper Melinda. And when

1052
00:51:07,120 --> 00:51:08,759
Speaker 1: you grow up in my town, you would drive and

1053
00:51:08,800 --> 00:51:11,280
Speaker 1: park and roll down the windows and turn off your car.

1054
00:51:11,640 --> 00:51:14,319
Speaker 1: And I can remember my friends, my sixteen year old

1055
00:51:14,360 --> 00:51:17,920
Speaker 1: girlfriend like punching me as hard as anybody could and

1056
00:51:17,960 --> 00:51:20,840
Speaker 1: being like, drive, turn it on. And then there's a

1057
00:51:20,880 --> 00:51:22,960
Speaker 1: guy that lived there with dogs who would like let

1058
00:51:22,960 --> 00:51:25,000
Speaker 1: the dogs out to bark at you. So you would

1059
00:51:25,040 --> 00:51:27,120
Speaker 1: wait until the dogs were barking out, you turn your

1060
00:51:27,160 --> 00:51:29,040
Speaker 1: car on as fasts you can, or hope it started,

1061
00:51:29,320 --> 00:51:31,919
Speaker 1: and then peel out of Upper Melinda. It's still there.

1062
00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:32,960
Speaker 1: I just saw it the other day.

1063
00:51:33,440 --> 00:51:35,760
Speaker 3: I'm saying, this is why we need the internet. Kids,

1064
00:51:35,760 --> 00:51:36,600
Speaker 3: are safer with you.

1065
00:51:36,760 --> 00:51:39,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, get your kids on the internet, get them an

1066
00:51:39,640 --> 00:51:43,040
Speaker 1: iPad as soon as they come out of the womb. Kids.

1067
00:51:43,120 --> 00:51:47,120
Speaker 2: It does feel like all of those suburban legends are dying, though,

1068
00:51:47,200 --> 00:51:49,600
Speaker 2: do you know what I mean? Because you can search everything,

1069
00:51:49,920 --> 00:51:51,799
Speaker 2: Like now you can go on Weird New Jersey and

1070
00:51:51,840 --> 00:51:54,120
Speaker 2: look up Essex Road and kind of like read all

1071
00:51:54,160 --> 00:51:57,040
Speaker 2: about it and that there's like fifty different theories on it,

1072
00:51:57,080 --> 00:51:58,120
Speaker 2: and it was all bullshit.

1073
00:51:58,239 --> 00:51:58,440
Speaker 1: You know.

1074
00:51:58,600 --> 00:52:00,799
Speaker 2: It's just like it takes all of the takes all

1075
00:52:00,840 --> 00:52:03,120
Speaker 2: the oumphat of it, all the scariness.

1076
00:52:02,800 --> 00:52:05,680
Speaker 1: Out of it. There's memes, there's creepypasta stuff. It's definitely

1077
00:52:05,719 --> 00:52:09,080
Speaker 1: become more like the slender Man world of like here, Look,

1078
00:52:09,200 --> 00:52:11,400
Speaker 1: you can research it all night, but then that's not

1079
00:52:11,440 --> 00:52:13,640
Speaker 1: as scared as walking out to dark woods where it

1080
00:52:13,680 --> 00:52:17,200
Speaker 1: says dead body here and bad pentacle and scro everywhere.

1081
00:52:18,000 --> 00:52:20,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was really, hey, what do we do?

1082
00:52:20,520 --> 00:52:23,000
Speaker 1: What do we spray? I want to really freak people out?

1083
00:52:23,760 --> 00:52:25,239
Speaker 1: How about dead body here?

1084
00:52:27,120 --> 00:52:29,360
Speaker 2: I think like they did an outline, like a really

1085
00:52:29,400 --> 00:52:32,200
Speaker 2: poor outline. I'm gonna get a picture of the outline

1086
00:52:32,200 --> 00:52:34,399
Speaker 2: and put it because it's it's on Weird New jersey.

1087
00:52:34,440 --> 00:52:35,600
Speaker 1: And the outline.

1088
00:52:36,120 --> 00:52:39,080
Speaker 2: It was very obvious that no one posed for the

1089
00:52:39,160 --> 00:52:42,440
Speaker 2: body outline. It was just like, it just looks like

1090
00:52:42,640 --> 00:52:44,520
Speaker 2: do they know what a body looks like? Or it

1091
00:52:44,520 --> 00:52:46,120
Speaker 2: looks like a glove, you know what I mean?

1092
00:52:46,640 --> 00:52:48,960
Speaker 1: I totally get it all right? Should I wrap it

1093
00:52:49,080 --> 00:52:49,799
Speaker 1: up with one more?

1094
00:52:51,080 --> 00:52:51,680
Speaker 2: Send us home?

Speaker 1: Okaylyssa, Before we do, let's plug some stuff. Where can

1096
00:52:54,280 --> 00:52:56,560
Speaker 1: people find you on the social medis the VIDs. I've

00:52:56,560 --> 00:52:58,040
Speaker 1: went to your website. Plug it all.

1098
00:52:59,239 --> 00:53:02,520
Speaker 4: Yes, go to ad Alyssa lamp on Twitter or TikTok

1099
00:53:02,600 --> 00:53:03,200
Speaker 4: or Instagram.

1100
00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:05,200
Speaker 3: You can follow me. All my stuff is there and

1101
00:53:05,320 --> 00:53:06,360
Speaker 3: look out for a two week.

1102
00:53:06,239 --> 00:53:09,160
Speaker 4: Go watch it, rent it, come to the theaters, see

1103
00:53:09,200 --> 00:53:11,080
Speaker 4: it and yeah it.

1104
00:53:11,840 --> 00:53:14,080
Speaker 1: Check out our videos. You're gonna love them. I literally

1105
00:53:14,160 --> 00:53:16,920
Speaker 1: watched one and emailed her. I was so excited about

1106
00:53:16,960 --> 00:53:18,840
Speaker 1: you as an actress. I was like, oh, she is

1107
00:53:18,920 --> 00:53:21,960
Speaker 1: so good. It was your ability to keep saying new

1108
00:53:22,000 --> 00:53:24,480
Speaker 1: things that I hadn't heard before, which is the rarest

1109
00:53:24,560 --> 00:53:27,879
Speaker 1: thing for a character actor. If you've been around enough,

1110
00:53:27,920 --> 00:53:29,880
Speaker 1: you just hear the same kind of like you know,

1111
00:53:30,040 --> 00:53:32,520
Speaker 1: but you obviously know because you avoid doing it. But like,

1112
00:53:32,560 --> 00:53:34,920
Speaker 1: after three videos, I'm like I honestly don't understand how

1113
00:53:34,920 --> 00:53:38,799
Speaker 1: she keeps coming up with new one liners, especially I

1114
00:53:38,920 --> 00:53:41,040
Speaker 1: like when you're in your mom character and you whisper

1115
00:53:41,600 --> 00:53:43,440
Speaker 1: to the camera as if it's like a little thing

1116
00:53:43,480 --> 00:53:45,160
Speaker 1: that you don't want anybody else to hear. That shit

1117
00:53:45,280 --> 00:53:51,480
Speaker 1: gets me crying lessa what's your favorite fast food? If

1118
00:53:51,520 --> 00:53:53,600
Speaker 1: you had to eat it? If I pointed a potato

1119
00:53:53,640 --> 00:53:55,080
Speaker 1: cannon at you, what would you get?

1120
00:53:56,280 --> 00:53:58,080
Speaker 3: I had to you don't have to point a cannon

1121
00:53:58,080 --> 00:54:01,239
Speaker 3: at me. I'll just drive there. Of French fries that

1122
00:54:01,320 --> 00:54:03,040
Speaker 3: in and out those my favorite.

1123
00:54:03,680 --> 00:54:05,920
Speaker 2: That is a crazy that's a crazy answer.

1124
00:54:07,000 --> 00:54:09,040
Speaker 4: I only have you know my options are a little

1125
00:54:09,080 --> 00:54:11,480
Speaker 4: bit limited, or I guess dunkin Donuts if that counts.

1126
00:54:11,480 --> 00:54:13,800
Speaker 2: I get Dunky from Massachusetts Donut.

1127
00:54:13,800 --> 00:54:14,160
Speaker 1: You got to.

1128
00:54:15,360 --> 00:54:17,759
Speaker 2: And I think the reason we both responded that way

1129
00:54:17,840 --> 00:54:20,440
Speaker 2: is because I always have always heard people say, like

1130
00:54:20,520 --> 00:54:22,400
Speaker 2: in and out the fries are no good, but that

1131
00:54:22,560 --> 00:54:24,840
Speaker 2: burgers are really good. You know what it is.

1132
00:54:24,880 --> 00:54:27,680
Speaker 3: But they don't taste chemical.

1133
00:54:27,760 --> 00:54:31,719
Speaker 2: They taste you have to and if you get them hot,

1134
00:54:31,800 --> 00:54:34,200
Speaker 2: if you eat them hot, it's good. But the moment

1135
00:54:34,200 --> 00:54:36,040
Speaker 2: they chill just a little bit. I find them to

1136
00:54:36,080 --> 00:54:38,239
Speaker 2: be just like regular protective cardboard.

1137
00:54:38,520 --> 00:54:41,880
Speaker 1: Okay, Doki. The reason I brought it up is because

1138
00:54:42,000 --> 00:54:46,400
Speaker 1: Tim Hume from CNN wrote this one. Guys. It was

1139
00:54:46,440 --> 00:54:50,120
Speaker 1: sent in by Kitch Empire and a long time ago. Kitch.

1140
00:54:50,120 --> 00:54:52,880
Speaker 1: I've been sitting on this one. Sorry, my friends, but

1141
00:54:53,000 --> 00:54:55,120
Speaker 1: you made the pot. Uh. This is the kind of

1142
00:54:55,120 --> 00:54:57,239
Speaker 1: story that I like. We've done several versions of this,

1143
00:54:57,320 --> 00:55:01,680
Speaker 1: but this one is just excellent. French robbers pick the

1144
00:55:01,760 --> 00:55:06,239
Speaker 1: absolute wrong McDonald's to rob. Two hapless criminals picked the

1145
00:55:06,280 --> 00:55:08,799
Speaker 1: wrong place to rob when they held up a McDonald's

1146
00:55:08,840 --> 00:55:13,320
Speaker 1: in France. Eleven armed members of an elite paramilitary force

1147
00:55:13,400 --> 00:55:14,920
Speaker 1: happened to be eating inside.

1148
00:55:15,400 --> 00:55:24,040
Speaker 5: No Oh, eleven is such a good number of elite

1149
00:55:24,120 --> 00:55:25,640
Speaker 5: paramilitary members?

1150
00:55:25,760 --> 00:55:27,280
Speaker 2: Oh my god.

1151
00:55:28,400 --> 00:55:32,800
Speaker 1: If it's two, they can rough you up. If it's eleven,

1152
00:55:33,080 --> 00:55:38,320
Speaker 1: they can completely surround you twice. Two layers of force.

1153
00:55:40,160 --> 00:55:41,799
Speaker 2: What is the what is the group that they're a

1154
00:55:41,800 --> 00:55:43,160
Speaker 2: part of? Le seles?

1155
00:55:43,840 --> 00:55:43,920
Speaker 3: Like?

1156
00:55:44,000 --> 00:55:47,640
Speaker 2: What is this paramilitary group that rangers?

1157
00:55:47,840 --> 00:55:51,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know, lavere Berets, probably lavere Berets or

1158
00:55:51,920 --> 00:56:01,560
Speaker 1: Libret there, leve liberare there. The parallergy allegedly burst into

1159
00:56:01,880 --> 00:56:05,200
Speaker 1: a Cole Valentine branch of the fast food restaurant in

1160
00:56:05,239 --> 00:56:09,680
Speaker 1: the eastern city of bessen Cones on Sunday. They fired

1161
00:56:09,680 --> 00:56:12,600
Speaker 1: a shotgun into the ceiling. So fuck these guys. WHOA,

1162
00:56:12,680 --> 00:56:15,080
Speaker 1: as soon as you go there, you're bad news.

1163
00:56:15,080 --> 00:56:18,640
Speaker 2: They already discharged a gun. And in France, where I

1164
00:56:18,680 --> 00:56:23,279
Speaker 2: think guns are rarer than sure here suck right.

1165
00:56:23,680 --> 00:56:25,239
Speaker 3: They were like, yeah, that sounds like a Monday. That's

1166
00:56:25,239 --> 00:56:27,480
Speaker 3: how people walk into fast food restaurants in America.

1167
00:56:27,560 --> 00:56:35,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, bought up for sandwich. Poop boom, I'm loving this boom.

1168
00:56:36,280 --> 00:56:38,759
Speaker 1: They fired a shotgun into the ceiling, yelling at the

1169
00:56:38,800 --> 00:56:43,320
Speaker 1: customers inside to get on the floor. The city's prosecutor

1170
00:56:43,640 --> 00:56:48,680
Speaker 1: uig Rue Morizou told CNN one of the robbers stole

1171
00:56:48,760 --> 00:56:52,080
Speaker 1: two thousand euro so about two hundred and sixty nine

1172
00:56:52,080 --> 00:56:55,800
Speaker 1: dollars from the registers before the men started to run away,

1173
00:56:56,120 --> 00:57:00,800
Speaker 1: unfortunately for them. Among the forty odd customers grabbing burgers

1174
00:57:00,800 --> 00:57:04,120
Speaker 1: at the time were eleven members of the GIGN the

1175
00:57:04,239 --> 00:57:08,040
Speaker 1: National Uh you get it, the gig n H and

1176
00:57:08,120 --> 00:57:12,759
Speaker 1: alit that those words I'm not going there uh, an

1177
00:57:12,760 --> 00:57:19,560
Speaker 1: elite special operations unit of the National Gendarmee which specializes

1178
00:57:19,640 --> 00:57:25,200
Speaker 1: in counter terror and hostage situations. Oh my crazy got

1179
00:57:25,760 --> 00:57:30,320
Speaker 1: nine of them were wearing playing clothes but carrying weapons.

1180
00:57:30,480 --> 00:57:33,600
Speaker 1: They chased the robbers. They caught one when he stumbled

1181
00:57:33,600 --> 00:57:38,320
Speaker 1: on the stairs. Hilarious. Also hilarious. One of the robbers,

1182
00:57:38,440 --> 00:57:40,840
Speaker 1: armed with the shotgun, kept running. At one point he

1183
00:57:40,920 --> 00:57:44,680
Speaker 1: took aim at the special forces. This was, as the

1184
00:57:44,720 --> 00:57:50,760
Speaker 1: prosecutor says, a big mistake, the grand mistake. The GIGN

1185
00:57:50,840 --> 00:57:53,640
Speaker 1: officers yelled at him to stop and then fired warning

1186
00:57:53,680 --> 00:57:56,800
Speaker 1: shots to deter him, but when they took aim at him,

1187
00:57:57,080 --> 00:58:00,280
Speaker 1: when he took aim at them again, they responded with

1188
00:58:00,320 --> 00:58:05,120
Speaker 1: a quote neutralization shot to the abdomen. Oh my god,

1189
00:58:05,720 --> 00:58:08,760
Speaker 1: both men who were born in nineteen ninety one. Weird fact,

1190
00:58:08,800 --> 00:58:12,120
Speaker 1: but they gave it to us. Strange. Strange. We're taken

1191
00:58:12,120 --> 00:58:16,080
Speaker 1: to the hospital charge with arm robbery, the prosecutor said.

1192
00:58:17,120 --> 00:58:19,720
Speaker 1: She said the officers had delayed intervening earlier in the

1193
00:58:19,800 --> 00:58:23,000
Speaker 1: robbery because of the threat to customers, so they're waiting

1194
00:58:23,000 --> 00:58:25,120
Speaker 1: for them to step outside. None of the staff or

1195
00:58:25,120 --> 00:58:28,040
Speaker 1: customers were injured in the robbery, and no doubt the

1196
00:58:28,120 --> 00:58:31,800
Speaker 1: robbers were ruining the day, Which is great reporting by

1197
00:58:32,000 --> 00:58:37,560
Speaker 1: our buddy Tim Hume or Hoomi at CNN Mediumist in

1198
00:58:37,640 --> 00:58:42,560
Speaker 1: the Biz. They rued their trip to Golden Arches that day.

1199
00:58:43,000 --> 00:58:48,480
Speaker 1: But as they say, we're loving it. God tip, oh

1200
00:58:48,600 --> 00:58:52,840
Speaker 1: wow at the home eased in on the landing.

1201
00:58:53,000 --> 00:58:57,960
Speaker 2: Also, the fact that there was forty forty people in

1202
00:58:58,080 --> 00:59:01,120
Speaker 2: a French MacDonald surprises me. I would think of French

1203
00:59:01,160 --> 00:59:04,840
Speaker 2: McDonald's would be relatively empty. Yeah, but look at that

1204
00:59:04,920 --> 00:59:05,640
Speaker 2: forty people.

1205
00:59:05,720 --> 00:59:06,360
Speaker 1: They love it.

1206
00:59:07,280 --> 00:59:10,360
