That means it's a good one, folks. 299 00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:35,160 Speaker 1: So when I'm I think I was probably fifteen or 300 00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:38,720 Speaker 1: sixteen years old, I was very into mountain biking. I 301 00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:40,680 Speaker 1: was racing mountain bikes. I was working on a bike shop. 302 00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:42,920 Speaker 1: It was a big part of my personality. And where 303 00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:45,800 Speaker 1: I lived there was this National Guard base that hadn't 304 00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:47,440 Speaker 1: really been developed, so it was, I don't know, a 305 00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:50,080 Speaker 1: couple hundred acres of woods and lakes and ponds and 306 00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:52,200 Speaker 1: rivers and stuff. It was great. Yeah, And I had 307 00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:56,200 Speaker 1: caught wind through my neighbor Laney, who's great coal that 308 00:15:56,880 --> 00:15:59,320 Speaker 1: a girl that I really had a crush on, and 309 00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:02,920 Speaker 1: her best friend were go They heard about the second pond, 310 00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:05,480 Speaker 1: which is the smaller pond, and they were going to 311 00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:07,680 Speaker 1: go swimming. So I was like, you know what I'm 312 00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:10,560 Speaker 1: gonna do. I'm going to ride my bike by there, 313 00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:13,960 Speaker 1: just acting like I didn't know they were there, just acting, 314 00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:17,760 Speaker 1: you know, just it's close to my house, just being 315 00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:20,800 Speaker 1: a cool dude. No helmet, no helmet that day, just 316 00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:24,680 Speaker 1: in the woods, just putting in reps. But to add 317 00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:27,520 Speaker 1: to the you know, anythink can happen in the world 318 00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:31,520 Speaker 1: of fifteen or sixteen year old Scotti, my other neighbor 319 00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:34,000 Speaker 1: who at the time we had used to be best friends. 320 00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:36,280 Speaker 1: We had grown a part at this point. But my 321 00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:40,240 Speaker 1: buddy Kyle and I had this plant and it was 322 00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:43,680 Speaker 1: in our it was in his neighbor's yard, and we 323 00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:45,560 Speaker 1: realized one night when we were goofing off that we 324 00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:47,480 Speaker 1: just pulled up on this plant and the whole thing 325 00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:50,400 Speaker 1: came out of the ground. So we would stash he 326 00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:54,680 Speaker 1: would stash drugs. Wow. But then we would put zemas 327 00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:58,480 Speaker 1: under there. We would put we could fireworks, we would 328 00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:00,280 Speaker 1: hide under there, and then you put the whole play 329 00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:02,920 Speaker 1: back down and put mulch over it. And it was 330 00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:08,760 Speaker 1: basically like what a root seller, but just for illegal things. 331 00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:12,880 Speaker 1: So before I cut into the woods and ride, it's 332 00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:15,000 Speaker 1: a deep roadcrid. It's like this was gonna be about 333 00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:18,040 Speaker 1: forty minutes of pedaling through the woods. They're jails and stuff, 334 00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:21,320 Speaker 1: But I knew where it was. I've been swimming there. 335 00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:23,720 Speaker 2: And it's a swimming hole. It's just like off a lake, 336 00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:24,200 Speaker 2: a river. 337 00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:29,400 Speaker 1: So cool question it was. And I know with every 338 00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:32,280 Speaker 1: detail you're going to say this is impossible. But there 339 00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:35,960 Speaker 1: was a dam built, a concrete dam that was built 340 00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:41,280 Speaker 1: alongside a chemistry lab. And so it was a pond 341 00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:46,040 Speaker 1: I would say, maybe as big as a racquetball court, 342 00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:49,280 Speaker 1: and it was very deep and we used to fish 343 00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:51,200 Speaker 1: in it, but you could also jump off the dam 344 00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:51,800 Speaker 1: part of it. 345 00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:55,760 Speaker 2: A racketball court. Yeah, that's not big. 346 00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:58,919 Speaker 1: It wasn't very big. This was the smaller, like fishing 347 00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:03,040 Speaker 1: hole size place, but there was. Yeah, it's right. 348 00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:05,639 Speaker 2: Next to a like a chemical processing plant. 349 00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:08,199 Speaker 1: No, just a kept. There was a school there, a 350 00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:14,560 Speaker 1: school for bad girls called Mantros and. 351 00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:15,600 Speaker 2: In detail it continues to get better. 352 00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:18,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, And so they had a chemistry lab there with 353 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:21,080 Speaker 1: like you know, Florence flass and earlimine flass and all 354 00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:23,040 Speaker 1: those things, and they still had things that said like 355 00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:26,719 Speaker 1: hydrochloric acid and sodium and all this stuff. And so 356 00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:29,520 Speaker 1: we would throw all those down this thing and break 357 00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:32,960 Speaker 1: them because we're children, so pretty far run. So I 358 00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:37,000 Speaker 1: ride up first to our root seller stash box basically 359 00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:40,359 Speaker 1: lifted up. I'm not going to take drugs. I didn't. 360 00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:43,760 Speaker 1: I'm not even hurt. I wasn't a drug guy. No 361 00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:48,320 Speaker 1: fireworks thought about it. But what we did find was 362 00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:52,480 Speaker 1: there was some down home punches, Jack Daniels. Down home punches, 363 00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:55,080 Speaker 1: remember those they were They're pink, and they were like 364 00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:58,680 Speaker 1: eight or ten ounce bottles, and they were like malt liquor. 365 00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:01,280 Speaker 1: They were basically a way for children to be introduced 366 00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:05,440 Speaker 1: to alcohol. Yeah, and they worked, and they were also delicious, 367 00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:06,560 Speaker 1: and back. 368 00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:08,480 Speaker 2: Then you never threw one up. You would never have 369 00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:09,680 Speaker 2: one again, bingo. 370 00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:12,640 Speaker 1: And so I found a little four pack of those. 371 00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:14,520 Speaker 1: I put him in my messenger bag and then I 372 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:17,679 Speaker 1: just start I'll just take it a nice, normal ride 373 00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:22,520 Speaker 1: with no ulterior motives. Guys, I'm not trying to see 374 00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:26,680 Speaker 1: here with a four pack of what's it called down 375 00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:28,840 Speaker 1: home punch, Down Daniels. 376 00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:30,320 Speaker 2: I was just gonna drink this by myself out here 377 00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:32,720 Speaker 2: by the lake and smash some bottles. But now that 378 00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:34,119 Speaker 2: you're here, huh. 379 00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:36,880 Speaker 1: This soil temperature down home punch that I just dug 380 00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:39,439 Speaker 1: up from a neighbor's yard who doesn't know that he's 381 00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:41,720 Speaker 1: a drug dealer, a grown man that doesn't know that 382 00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:42,640 Speaker 1: he's dealing drugs. 383 00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:45,800 Speaker 2: Hey, you guys aren't bad girls, are you? Because there's 384 00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:46,399 Speaker 2: a school for that. 385 00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:50,879 Speaker 1: Yeah, because you're on campus for Manto School for Bad Girls. 386 00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:54,119 Speaker 1: So yeah, I'm this is and looking back, this is 387 00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:57,560 Speaker 1: pre all social media. I mean I had a gateway 388 00:19:57,600 --> 00:20:01,639 Speaker 1: computer or something. I don't know, but yes, the concept 389 00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:03,520 Speaker 1: of seeing the girl you had a crush on in 390 00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:06,920 Speaker 1: her friend in a swimsuit was enough to make you ride. Yeah, 391 00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:10,800 Speaker 1: you think forty minutes I would have ridden to Nebraska. Like. 392 00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:14,000 Speaker 1: I was like, let's do it. So I started riding 393 00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:18,320 Speaker 1: and I'm getting close. Yeah, And there's sort of this 394 00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:20,960 Speaker 1: long sweeping hill down to this tree line, and then 395 00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:23,600 Speaker 1: along that tree line there's just a normal path that 396 00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:26,200 Speaker 1: goes to where this pond is, the watering hole and 397 00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:29,320 Speaker 1: all that stuff. And I see two women coming out. 398 00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:33,560 Speaker 1: So I'm like, farts, I missed. I missed my window 399 00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:36,479 Speaker 1: to catch them laying out in swimsuits and riding up 400 00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:39,360 Speaker 1: and being like, what's up? You guys? Like down home 401 00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:41,879 Speaker 1: punch by chance? Because I have four of them that 402 00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:44,080 Speaker 1: have been cooking against my sweaty back for the last 403 00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:47,879 Speaker 1: forty five minutes. So I hustle to go faster. And 404 00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:50,720 Speaker 1: I've ridden this area many times, and there is a 405 00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:53,679 Speaker 1: loading ramp that was built by the military for I 406 00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:55,720 Speaker 1: don't know, loading stuff on the dump trucks or whatever 407 00:20:55,720 --> 00:21:00,439 Speaker 1: they do steak bits. So I gun it and I 408 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:05,080 Speaker 1: jump off that and I just simply land so hard 409 00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:10,000 Speaker 1: that I flipped forward. But I had clipless pedals, the 410 00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:12,119 Speaker 1: kind were your shoes click into the wheels. 411 00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:14,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, so oh no, it came with you. 412 00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:18,000 Speaker 1: Yes, So I do a front tuck and then I 413 00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:23,440 Speaker 1: like tray bouchet the bicycle with my feet and throw 414 00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:27,439 Speaker 1: this bike honestly forty five feet. I just throw it 415 00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:30,920 Speaker 1: down a hill towards these women. They're still pretty far away. 416 00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:33,960 Speaker 1: And then I hear, you know. 417 00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:35,680 Speaker 2: Did you land on concrete or dirt? 418 00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:37,600 Speaker 1: No, I laid it on grass, but it was glass, 419 00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:40,320 Speaker 1: It was swoped. It was going away from me, and 420 00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:43,160 Speaker 1: I just miss time the jump, like I just didn't 421 00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:45,840 Speaker 1: pull up soon enough and threw my bike. 422 00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:50,760 Speaker 2: If it's like going down a hill, you're actually falling farther, 423 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:52,560 Speaker 2: that's right to anticipate. 424 00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:58,840 Speaker 1: Yes, So did I yell something to get their attention 425 00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:02,560 Speaker 1: before doing it? Yes I did. I don't recall what 426 00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:06,120 Speaker 1: I did, but I did shout something. And so when 427 00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:08,800 Speaker 1: I land yeah, exactly. 428 00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:10,840 Speaker 2: Oh wait, you got the bottles in your bag? 429 00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:16,320 Speaker 1: Bingo. So I landed on my back and I thought 430 00:22:16,359 --> 00:22:18,800 Speaker 1: I had broken my back again. Wasn't wearing a helmet 431 00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:23,080 Speaker 1: to be cool for the babes? Yep? And then I 432 00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:25,879 Speaker 1: wiggle my tails, move my legs. And also it should 433 00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:28,480 Speaker 1: be noted I crashed at that same place another time 434 00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:30,960 Speaker 1: had destroyed my bike, but this time bike was fine. 435 00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:33,960 Speaker 1: Just got thrown forty five feet towards two girls walking 436 00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:36,400 Speaker 1: out of the woods, and so I kind of make 437 00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:39,399 Speaker 1: sure I'm not paralyzed. And when I sit up, I 438 00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:41,800 Speaker 1: hear are you okay? Oh my god, are you okay? Like, 439 00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:44,680 Speaker 1: don't move, don't move, And I sit up and it's 440 00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:47,960 Speaker 1: not those girls. It is two women that I've never 441 00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:51,600 Speaker 1: met or seen or seen since, grown women, adult women. 442 00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:54,280 Speaker 1: I'm sixteen or fifteen year old. And so from their 443 00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:57,679 Speaker 1: point of view, they saw the skinniest white boy you've 444 00:22:57,720 --> 00:22:59,879 Speaker 1: ever seen in your life, say something like check this, 445 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:03,480 Speaker 1: sud Or probably yelled Jumanji, That's something I used to yell. 446 00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:08,639 Speaker 1: Then wreck so hard and throw hit their bike with 447 00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:13,000 Speaker 1: their feet at these two women. Then as I stand 448 00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:15,080 Speaker 1: up to play a cool realizing it's not the two 449 00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:17,240 Speaker 1: girls that I wanted to see, who, by the way, 450 00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 1: weren't there that day. So all of this was a 451 00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:23,440 Speaker 1: fool's errand of hearsay that those two were gonna be 452 00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:25,640 Speaker 1: sunbathing and swimming and then I should go check them out. 453 00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:28,520 Speaker 1: And so these women come up, and as they're coming up, 454 00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:31,320 Speaker 1: just pink fluid is just leaking out of my messenger 455 00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:33,639 Speaker 1: bag by Tim buck du Pike. So it looks like 456 00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:37,040 Speaker 1: I'm like pissing my pants or peeing blood because the 457 00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:41,200 Speaker 1: down home punches are just leaking through all the y. Yeah, 458 00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:45,000 Speaker 1: of course I thought I'm going like thirty miles an hour. 459 00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:48,520 Speaker 1: So I meet them at my bike and I'm like, 460 00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:51,520 Speaker 1: I'm okay, I'm all right. And they're like, oh, are 461 00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:53,480 Speaker 1: you like? This is really bad? And they're like do 462 00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:55,440 Speaker 1: you want to ride? And I'm like, I have this bike, 463 00:23:56,760 --> 00:23:59,639 Speaker 1: I kid, I'm fine. And so what ended up happening 464 00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:02,040 Speaker 1: is I just ended up going seeing that the girls 465 00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:05,840 Speaker 1: weren't there the intended audience, convincing these two women I 466 00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:09,679 Speaker 1: wasn't paralyzed or bleeding out my back and bike shorts 467 00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:12,600 Speaker 1: and stuff, and so I had to go swimming just 468 00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:15,720 Speaker 1: to get all the sticky crap off of me. And 469 00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:19,320 Speaker 1: so then I just rode a bicycle wet home just 470 00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:24,240 Speaker 1: stone cull sober. Couldn't have been a bigger loser if 471 00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:28,280 Speaker 1: I had to do it. And when I told the girls, 472 00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:30,800 Speaker 1: they were like, oh, that would have been awesome, Like 473 00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:34,560 Speaker 1: that would have been so my goal was going to 474 00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:37,159 Speaker 1: be the greatest moment in all of our high school lives. 475 00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:41,439 Speaker 1: But instead I just showed two women what an idiot 476 00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:44,320 Speaker 1: looks like, threw a bicycle at them, and then bled 477 00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:47,800 Speaker 1: out my back for thirty two ounces. 478 00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:54,199 Speaker 2: Oh my god, that's amazing, you know what. It is 479 00:24:54,240 --> 00:25:00,880 Speaker 2: so fascinating too because I have weirdly parallel story when 480 00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:03,760 Speaker 2: I was twelve, I was in sixth grade. I was twelve, 481 00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:08,200 Speaker 2: and I would ride my bike from Neptune to ave 482 00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:14,800 Speaker 2: On by the Sea and h ave On had I 483 00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:18,160 Speaker 2: believe it was my first girlfriend. 484 00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:20,520 Speaker 1: Okay, and like down home Potch. 485 00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:26,399 Speaker 2: I was riding to see Carrie, and I was riding 486 00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:30,639 Speaker 2: along Route thirty five in Neptune, New Jersey, and I 487 00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:34,760 Speaker 2: just went to go up on. There was like a 488 00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:37,600 Speaker 2: you know, the curb came down so that you like, 489 00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:41,840 Speaker 2: cars could drive into a parking lot, and I went 490 00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:46,040 Speaker 2: to just drive into that, but for some reason, my 491 00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:49,280 Speaker 2: bike got my bike wheel got caught on the lip 492 00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:52,400 Speaker 2: of the edge of it, and just I just flipped 493 00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:56,160 Speaker 2: flipped off, landed on my face.

I should have turned 497 00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:12,600 Speaker 2: around and gone home, but I was so excited to 498 00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:16,480 Speaker 2: go see Carrie that I continued riding to her house 499 00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:20,280 Speaker 2: showing up just pouring, and her parents weren't around, but 500 00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:22,920 Speaker 2: like she had an older sister who I remember her 501 00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:28,720 Speaker 2: going and like getting tailan all for me, but I 502 00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:31,600 Speaker 2: couldn't open my mouth enough to swallow tailand all. 503 00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:32,080 Speaker 1: Oh. 504 00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:35,679 Speaker 2: So then their idea was they crushed it up and 505 00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:37,159 Speaker 2: then mixed it with water. 506 00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:38,040 Speaker 1: Oh boy. 507 00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:40,760 Speaker 2: And then I tried to drink it, and then it 508 00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:45,479 Speaker 2: just poured all over my open wound and tilan all 509 00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:51,000 Speaker 2: crushed up in water poisons. It burned so badly on 510 00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:55,280 Speaker 2: an open wound. Then I finally had to call my 511 00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:57,280 Speaker 2: mom and she came pick me up. She's like, why 512 00:26:57,280 --> 00:27:00,160 Speaker 2: didn't you come home when that happened? And I was like, 513 00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:02,560 Speaker 2: oh farther than halfway? 514 00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:06,720 Speaker 1: Good? Look, yes boy, logic. Also, you were trying to 515 00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:09,680 Speaker 1: prove how far you would go for this person's live 516 00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:12,639 Speaker 1: like I were slate dragons. 517 00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:18,080 Speaker 2: Yeah exactly, But man, that is that is as a 518 00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:19,639 Speaker 2: coming of age story for both of us. 519 00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:23,800 Speaker 1: Scottie, we did and in both instances we did not 520 00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:26,399 Speaker 1: get the girl. So the real lesson is, you know, 521 00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:28,560 Speaker 1: stay home, look at your phones. What you guys are 522 00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:30,600 Speaker 1: up to. It is way cooler.

That was twenty twelve. 551 00:29:13,880 --> 00:29:14,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, we got a lot of that. 552 00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:19,200 Speaker 2: Researchers have discovered more than one hundred and eleven thousand 553 00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:21,960 Speaker 2: spiders thriving in what appairs to be the world's biggest 554 00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:24,040 Speaker 2: spider web, deep inside a pitch black cave on the 555 00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:28,960 Speaker 2: Albanian Greek border. The extraordinary. Yeah, no shit, colony consists 556 00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:31,719 Speaker 2: of a colossal web and a permanently dark zone of 557 00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:36,360 Speaker 2: the cavern. According to a study, the web stretches one 558 00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:40,400 Speaker 2: thousand and forty square feet along all of a narrow, 559 00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:43,040 Speaker 2: low ceiling passageway near the entrance of the cave. It's 560 00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:46,560 Speaker 2: a patchwork of thousands of individual funnel shaped webs. The 561 00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:51,720 Speaker 2: researchers noted this is the first evidence of colonial colonial yeah, 562 00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:55,000 Speaker 2: I guess so, for colony colonial behavior and two common 563 00:29:55,040 --> 00:29:57,840 Speaker 2: spider species, and likely represents the largest spider web in 564 00:29:57,880 --> 00:30:04,000 Speaker 2: the world. The natural world still holds countless surprise for us, 565 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:07,720 Speaker 2: who Rack told Live Science in an email. If I 566 00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:10,720 Speaker 2: were to attempt to put into wards all the emotions 567 00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:13,720 Speaker 2: that surged through me when I saw the web, I 568 00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:18,920 Speaker 2: would highlight admiration, inspect and gratitude. You have to experience 569 00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:22,240 Speaker 2: it to truly know what it feels like. The spider 570 00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:25,200 Speaker 2: mega City is located in Sulfur Cave, A great name 571 00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:30,720 Speaker 2: a cavern that was Sulfur Cave already an unpleasant names. 572 00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:36,160 Speaker 2: There's one hundred and eleven thousand spiders inside. 573 00:30:36,760 --> 00:30:39,680 Speaker 1: Hey, baby, you want to drink these down home punches 574 00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:42,240 Speaker 1: with me and your friend? In Sulfur cave what could 575 00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:43,040 Speaker 1: be down there? 576 00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:47,760 Speaker 2: It was hollowed out by sulfuric acid form from oxidization 577 00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:52,440 Speaker 2: of hydrogen sulfide and groundwater. While the researchers revealed tantalizing 578 00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:58,640 Speaker 2: new information. Blah blah blah blah, where is the thing? Okay, 579 00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:02,960 Speaker 2: so these are this is another thing about these So 580 00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:06,840 Speaker 2: the two there's two separate spider species that live there, 581 00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:11,640 Speaker 2: and they aren't. They've never been shown to be friends, 582 00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:15,720 Speaker 2: so they are everywhere else they exist, they're enemies to 583 00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:19,840 Speaker 2: each other, and they like coexist and live together here. 584 00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:23,120 Speaker 2: Also normally like spiders hate other spiders and like eat 585 00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:26,000 Speaker 2: other spiders and kill other spiders, okay, and they like 586 00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:30,200 Speaker 2: live off on their own as huntresses. And instead this 587 00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:33,640 Speaker 2: is like the only example of them like working together 588 00:31:33,720 --> 00:31:36,520 Speaker 2: in this way in this giant megacity. But the reason 589 00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:40,160 Speaker 2: I wanted to do it was just like you think 590 00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:44,560 Speaker 2: that like it, especially in life, you think that you 591 00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:48,440 Speaker 2: because we get used to routine, you think that you're 592 00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:52,360 Speaker 2: pretty much assured of like that you kind of know 593 00:31:52,440 --> 00:31:55,560 Speaker 2: what to expect in the world, Like you know what's common. 594 00:31:56,440 --> 00:32:00,000 Speaker 2: You know you're not you're not expecting to be surprised. 595 00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:05,680 Speaker 2: It feels like everything's kind of been discovered already, other 596 00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:08,560 Speaker 2: than the dark Deep, because the dark Deep there's nothing 597 00:32:08,560 --> 00:32:11,840 Speaker 2: we don't know anything about it. Nope, But just to 598 00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:15,400 Speaker 2: sh'll like things. There's still things in the world that 599 00:32:15,480 --> 00:32:19,520 Speaker 2: you could never possibly imagine. And that is true for 600 00:32:19,600 --> 00:32:23,120 Speaker 2: your life as well. Even though it may seem that 601 00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:26,040 Speaker 2: things are just going the same way all the time, 602 00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:32,160 Speaker 2: A second could change everything and just just be just 603 00:32:32,320 --> 00:32:35,719 Speaker 2: be open to the possibility of change and also appreciate 604 00:32:35,800 --> 00:32:40,040 Speaker 2: the moments that might seem normally boring. And I agree 605 00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:43,440 Speaker 2: when it will change on a second. 606 00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:46,880 Speaker 1: But I think that's true. There's always more than meets 607 00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:49,720 Speaker 1: the eye. There's always more going on than what you think. 608 00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:53,240 Speaker 1: There's a big old world out there, and I wouldn't 609 00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:57,320 Speaker 1: want to paint it, but that is so cool. That's 610 00:32:57,320 --> 00:32:59,680 Speaker 1: such an interesting area too. When you're in Greece in 611 00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:01,920 Speaker 1: the the rent boats that are like, do not take 612 00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:05,160 Speaker 1: this boat to Albania, whatever you do, And boy, doesn't 613 00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:07,320 Speaker 1: that just make you want to take that boat immediately 614 00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:08,560 Speaker 1: to Albania. 615 00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:11,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, give me some shout outs, baby. 616 00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:13,520 Speaker 1: Oh, I got some thumbs up. Chantelle wants to thumb 617 00:33:13,520 --> 00:33:18,040 Speaker 1: her friend Katie up. Katie made Chantale up bananimal, and 618 00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:22,400 Speaker 1: she's the first to cheer anyone up. Yes, but Katie 619 00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:26,239 Speaker 1: was treated terribly at a job interview last week. So 620 00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:30,000 Speaker 1: Chantelle is saying thumbs up to Katie for being the best, 621 00:33:30,040 --> 00:33:32,960 Speaker 1: a supportive friend and a ray of sunshine. And f 622 00:33:33,080 --> 00:33:37,600 Speaker 1: you to the company who turned her down. Yeah, both 623 00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:41,240 Speaker 1: a thumbs up and an f you. Hell Yeah, Okay, 624 00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:46,120 Speaker 1: this one's really interesting. So Been Animals, Kurtie B and 625 00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:48,760 Speaker 1: I we are We are in no way licensed in 626 00:33:48,920 --> 00:33:54,440 Speaker 1: any way, shape or form for anything medical. Uh So 627 00:33:55,040 --> 00:33:57,400 Speaker 1: just think about that as I read this. This is 628 00:33:57,560 --> 00:34:01,600 Speaker 1: Tanya wants to thumb herself way up. And Tanya were 629 00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:05,880 Speaker 1: thumbing you up too. After six years and dozens of 630 00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:11,040 Speaker 1: antidepressants from four different classes of antidepressants and the worst 631 00:34:11,120 --> 00:34:14,520 Speaker 1: month of depression that Tanya ever had, she decided to 632 00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:17,360 Speaker 1: take care of her own mind and looked into treatment 633 00:34:17,520 --> 00:34:22,760 Speaker 1: resistant depression therapies. None of our doctors, psychiatrists, or psychologists 634 00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:26,279 Speaker 1: thought she had a certain variant of depression, so it 635 00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:28,880 Speaker 1: was up to Tanya to figure this one out for herself. 636 00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:32,000 Speaker 1: And she wants us to say, Been animals, who may 637 00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:35,359 Speaker 1: be suffering from depression. If you've tried more than four 638 00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:39,200 Speaker 1: types of antidepressants and you haven't, and you may have 639 00:34:39,400 --> 00:34:43,760 Speaker 1: treatment resistant depression. So look for therapies that target brains 640 00:34:43,840 --> 00:34:46,480 Speaker 1: like ours and do not suffer in silence. 641 00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:52,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, good, awesome. It feels medical stuff can feel so overwhelming, 642 00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:54,759 Speaker 2: especially when a doctor says I don't know you know, 643 00:34:54,840 --> 00:34:56,200 Speaker 2: and that happens so often. 644 00:34:56,719 --> 00:34:59,719 Speaker 1: That's right. So maybe if you've tried many things, like 645 00:34:59,760 --> 00:35:03,919 Speaker 1: to look into treatment resistant depression, maybe that's a new 646 00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:08,640 Speaker 1: area for you to find some peace. And last, but 647 00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:13,319 Speaker 1: not least, Pillar cp oh, let me see how I 648 00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:18,160 Speaker 1: would say this. I think it's Caperda, Pilar. Caperda wants 649 00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:20,600 Speaker 1: to thumb up the Banana Boys.

But last week he got a knock on 711 00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:29,080 Speaker 1: the door from a lovely older lady who handed him 712 00:38:29,080 --> 00:38:31,880 Speaker 1: a note. The envelope said homeowner on the front, and 713 00:38:31,960 --> 00:38:35,000 Speaker 1: inside was a photo copy cutout of a gnome on 714 00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:39,040 Speaker 1: the back, and it said the Gnome Restoration Society. And 715 00:38:39,120 --> 00:38:42,080 Speaker 1: that was it, as Blair told As It Happens host 716 00:38:42,120 --> 00:38:45,359 Speaker 1: Peter Armstrong, and then he asked the lady what's up. 717 00:38:45,480 --> 00:38:47,600 Speaker 1: The lady asked him to follow her to her car. 718 00:38:47,880 --> 00:38:50,279 Speaker 1: She had obviously no threatening manner about her, so of 719 00:38:50,280 --> 00:38:52,680 Speaker 1: course I followed her to her car. They're sitting in 720 00:38:52,719 --> 00:38:55,360 Speaker 1: the trunk of her sedan were his garden nomes. All 721 00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:57,359 Speaker 1: of a sudden, there's a huge splash of color and 722 00:38:57,480 --> 00:38:59,640 Speaker 1: all my gnomes are back. In fact, there were two 723 00:38:59,640 --> 00:39:03,719 Speaker 1: more and we're taking oops. He was actually planning to 724 00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:05,480 Speaker 1: give the numbs away as part of an effort to 725 00:39:05,480 --> 00:39:09,360 Speaker 1: declutter ahead of a move. Blair said he only discovered 726 00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:11,399 Speaker 1: the disappearance when he went to his backyard two weeks 727 00:39:11,400 --> 00:39:13,880 Speaker 1: ago to snap some photos of them. When he went 728 00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:16,720 Speaker 1: out there, there was only one lonely guarden nome left. 729 00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:19,960 Speaker 1: At first, he thought nothing of it. His canoe and 730 00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:23,040 Speaker 1: his tools had been stolen following a stolen following a 731 00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:25,480 Speaker 1: garage tail a few weeks earlier. What's going on. 732 00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:28,839 Speaker 2: With his canoe stolen? Oh no, what's he gonna do? 733 00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:33,800 Speaker 1: What's he gonna can do? But anyways, so they brought 734 00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:36,439 Speaker 1: these back and Blair said he's impressed with the quality 735 00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:38,920 Speaker 1: of the work over his made over gnome gang, adding 736 00:39:38,960 --> 00:39:42,360 Speaker 1: the eye for detail is incredible. The big guy with 737 00:39:42,440 --> 00:39:44,680 Speaker 1: the pipe kirt they mature as ash was in the 738 00:39:44,719 --> 00:39:46,280 Speaker 1: pipe and it was a great tone. 739 00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:47,600 Speaker 2: Yeah. 740 00:39:47,640 --> 00:39:51,279 Speaker 1: So basically, he didn't sleuth out or asked this lady 741 00:39:51,320 --> 00:39:54,040 Speaker 1: many questions, but she did give a small clue. The 742 00:39:54,080 --> 00:39:57,040 Speaker 1: woman said they were mostly retired people who did this 743 00:39:57,239 --> 00:39:58,879 Speaker 1: and wished to remain anonymous. 744 00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:01,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, because they're stealing gnomes. 745 00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:08,799 Speaker 1: But anyways, there was never any ill intent, and there 746 00:40:08,840 --> 00:40:12,440 Speaker 1: is a secret gnome restoration society.
