00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:27,639
Speaker 1: Ridiculous History is a production of iHeartRadio. Welcome back to

2
00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:30,920
Speaker 1: the show Ridiculous Historians. Thank you, as always so much

3
00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:34,640
Speaker 1: for tuning in. Let's hear it for the Man, the Myth,

4
00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:37,479
Speaker 1: the Legend. Super producer, mister Max Williams.

5
00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:41,640
Speaker 2: Huzzah, you good child.

6
00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:44,360
Speaker 3: You would pick to do a sports episode when I

7
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:48,479
Speaker 3: was six. I think this is intense. My breath, I'm

8
00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:49,239
Speaker 3: going to talk too much.

9
00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:52,519
Speaker 2: Oh, I thought it was raucous applause heard from a distance. Oh,

10
00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:54,040
Speaker 2: as I was also just doing a breath check. Do

11
00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:55,840
Speaker 2: I have coffee breath? I should? I probably do.

12
00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:59,160
Speaker 1: Oh, that's the best thing about us recording remotely. We

13
00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:02,400
Speaker 1: can't smell our mutual coffee breath shut out by the

14
00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:05,560
Speaker 1: way to our other super producer, all of the coffee.

15
00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:09,120
Speaker 2: Indeed, I'm out of oat milk though today, guys, so

16
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:11,200
Speaker 2: I'm not at my best. I know it's just doesn't

17
00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:13,319
Speaker 2: add anything to the kick of the coffee, but it's

18
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:15,600
Speaker 2: just something about the balance of the flavor. It doesn't right,

19
00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:17,800
Speaker 2: but it's still pretty good. I went ice today. How

20
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:20,120
Speaker 2: about you, Ben? What kind of coffee beverage are you Rockins?

21
00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:24,120
Speaker 1: You're an old brown. I'm Ben Bullen. We're all fans

22
00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:28,000
Speaker 1: of coffee. I drink my coffee straight, probably to a

23
00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 1: dangerous degree.

24
00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:31,040
Speaker 2: Ud jar. Yeah.

25
00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:34,800
Speaker 1: Max is actually getting pretty big into the coffee business.

26
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:38,959
Speaker 1: We were talking off air a while back, and Max

27
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:44,400
Speaker 1: has a system of coffee creation, a cold brew coffee

28
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:48,840
Speaker 1: creation that is on the level of becoming a sport Ben.

29
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:52,880
Speaker 2: I like your demonstration of transitional prowess here. We're gonna

30
00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:56,280
Speaker 2: talk about other kinds of prowess today. Sports. I'm not

31
00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:58,520
Speaker 2: really much of a sporte like that.

32
00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:01,240
Speaker 1: I mean, you like the vibe much a vibe at

33
00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:02,400
Speaker 1: a live event.

34
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:05,400
Speaker 2: I'm a vibe based human being, that is true. If

35
00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 2: the vibe is right, then I'm there for it. I'm

36
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:09,960
Speaker 2: trying to think when the last time I went to

37
00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:13,840
Speaker 2: a live sporting event was. It's been many years. Does

38
00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:18,120
Speaker 2: Monster Truck Rally count as a sporting event? Definitely? Okay,

39
00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:19,679
Speaker 2: well I went to that with both of you and

40
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:24,040
Speaker 2: Max actually, as it were, even convinced my girlfriend to

41
00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:26,480
Speaker 2: go with us. And my kid, who has let's just

42
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:30,880
Speaker 2: say some potential to be overstimulated, did not have a

43
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:32,720
Speaker 2: good time at the Monster Truck Rally.

44
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:37,680
Speaker 1: Dude, It's funny because when you bring up monster truck rallies.

45
00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:38,840
Speaker 2: It reminds me.

46
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:44,200
Speaker 1: That that must look so strange. If you traveled from

47
00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:48,240
Speaker 1: ancient meso America to the modern day and you saw

48
00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:51,799
Speaker 1: a monster truck rally, you would feel like you had

49
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:53,720
Speaker 1: discovered a new religion.

50
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:56,160
Speaker 2: Or the hell had opened up and the demons are

51
00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:59,480
Speaker 2: now on earth in the form of giant car eating

52
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:02,760
Speaker 2: fire breathing machines, and.

53
00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:05,519
Speaker 1: That would be your religion. That's a weirdly specific thing.

54
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:07,360
Speaker 1: I can't wait till we do time travel.

55
00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:13,119
Speaker 2: But I'm your God now right right, truck Asaurus, all

56
00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:14,800
Speaker 2: hail bow down before.

57
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:18,320
Speaker 1: What we're talking about in something that may become a

58
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:23,079
Speaker 1: series today is weird sports, by which we mean sports

59
00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:27,160
Speaker 1: we consider incredibly odd for one reason or another.

60
00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:29,639
Speaker 2: Can we also just take this moment to take back

61
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:33,799
Speaker 2: the word weird, Like I more or less appreciate what

62
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:37,000
Speaker 2: the the lefties are doing and trying to, you know,

63
00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:40,440
Speaker 2: co opt that word as an insult. But you know what,

64
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:43,920
Speaker 2: I'm over it. Weird is cool. We're wonderfully weird here

65
00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:46,480
Speaker 2: on ridiculous history. Yeah, keep Austin weird.

66
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:50,920
Speaker 1: Also, weird was a good Minnesota level insult.

67
00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:53,520
Speaker 2: I guess right, I guess that was the basis, because

68
00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:59,080
Speaker 2: old what is it, Chris Christoph Waltz, that's funny. So

69
00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:00,680
Speaker 2: we're weird.

70
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:05,880
Speaker 1: We are talking about these sports that may not be

71
00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:08,360
Speaker 1: familiar to a lot of people. Now, look, if you

72
00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:12,600
Speaker 1: live in the United States, really, regardless of where you

73
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:16,120
Speaker 1: live or whether or not you care for sports, when

74
00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:20,599
Speaker 1: you think of the term or the concept, you immediately

75
00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:25,279
Speaker 1: conjure images of your favorite athletes, the most memorable game

76
00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:26,719
Speaker 1: you have played or watched.

77
00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:29,960
Speaker 2: Shout out to Dodgers fans, by the way, good on y'all.

78
00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:34,119
Speaker 2: Your team won the World Series, right, And he says

79
00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:35,640
Speaker 2: he does it no sports.

80
00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:37,760
Speaker 3: I got to sit over her and think of an

81
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:40,000
Speaker 3: excuse to say they didn't actually win the World Series,

82
00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:42,160
Speaker 3: like how they won in twenty twenty. Everyone's like, well,

83
00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:45,679
Speaker 3: that was a fake World Series, But congratulations Rogers.

84
00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:47,400
Speaker 2: You sound a little bitter, Max.

85
00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:51,680
Speaker 3: Well, I heard any Atlanta and LA have been the

86
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:53,880
Speaker 3: two best teams and all for like the last five

87
00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:56,239
Speaker 3: years or so, so it's just been kind of robberly.

88
00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:58,360
Speaker 3: But you know, I love a tany, I love Muki Batts,

89
00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:00,600
Speaker 3: and I love Freddy Freeman obviously the rest of them.

90
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:03,320
Speaker 2: I love anybody named Muki or Freddie.

91
00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:07,799
Speaker 1: And you'll probably think of the logos of your favorite teams.

92
00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:11,760
Speaker 1: You might think of some of the world's most popular sports,

93
00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:15,640
Speaker 1: like soccer or football as it's called in the rest

94
00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:20,520
Speaker 1: of the world, or American football, right right, basketball or baseball.

95
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:24,120
Speaker 1: And we had a long discourse in our research here

96
00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:28,320
Speaker 1: when we were having what Corporate America would call a

97
00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:33,880
Speaker 1: healthy conversation about how you should not call baseball a

98
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:38,120
Speaker 1: World Series. If none of the teams from the Caribbean,

99
00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:42,680
Speaker 1: South America or East Asia can participate, the World Series

100
00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:44,320
Speaker 1: is just the US and Canada, right.

101
00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:46,160
Speaker 2: I never thought of that. That is a little bit

102
00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:46,919
Speaker 2: of a misnomer.

103
00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:51,400
Speaker 3: Counter being the way of a Champions League, which is

104
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:56,159
Speaker 3: like the club soccer equivalent to the World Cup. That's

105
00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:57,160
Speaker 3: kind of what the World.

106
00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:57,440
Speaker 2: Cup is like.

107
00:05:57,560 --> 00:05:59,920
Speaker 3: Is the best Japanese players in the world, the best

108
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:05,000
Speaker 3: Caribbean players, the best South American players, they all play. Honestly,

109
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:08,680
Speaker 3: the highest level ones play in America. This is the

110
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:11,440
Speaker 3: highest circuit. It's the same way. Look how the English

111
00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:13,880
Speaker 3: Premier League and a number of other European leagues are

112
00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:17,000
Speaker 3: the highest soccer ones. But now they have the World

113
00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:19,800
Speaker 3: Baseball Classic, which if you do not know the United

114
00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:23,960
Speaker 3: States has never won, all right, they lost to Japan.

115
00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:25,560
Speaker 3: So that's my counter there.

116
00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:27,359
Speaker 2: Well, that's telling you what the United States is definitely

117
00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:32,840
Speaker 2: known for him is curling. Ah, yes, if you heard

118
00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:33,799
Speaker 2: if I was being.

119
00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:37,280
Speaker 1: Fasious, it worked if you are Max. Of course, when

120
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:40,599
Speaker 1: you hear the word sports, you probably just thought of curling.

121
00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:45,839
Speaker 1: To Mill's point, and please check out our not one episode,

122
00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:49,520
Speaker 1: but our multi episode series on Curly.

123
00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:51,280
Speaker 2: It was never going to not be a multi part

124
00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:53,800
Speaker 2: it was never not going to be. But in today's episode,

125
00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:55,839
Speaker 2: we're going to cut through kind of the basics, you know,

126
00:06:55,960 --> 00:07:01,040
Speaker 2: the obvious candidates for for sporting leisure activities, and we're

127
00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:03,680
Speaker 2: going to delve into some much lesser known feats of

128
00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:09,200
Speaker 2: strength and physical prowess games that are were or are

129
00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:14,040
Speaker 2: insanely popular in their region or also time and seem to,

130
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:17,920
Speaker 2: at least outside observers, to be a little bit odd.

131
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:21,040
Speaker 2: But we know that that term is a little bit loaded,

132
00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:24,520
Speaker 2: because you know, one person's odd is another person's normal.

133
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:33,600
Speaker 2: So you know, let's let's dive in. I'm hoping I'm

134
00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:36,080
Speaker 2: saying it right, is it? It's not to be confused

135
00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:38,400
Speaker 2: with another naughty or word it's Bouzkashi.

136
00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:42,240
Speaker 1: Oh you got it, You got it, And I applaud

137
00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:45,840
Speaker 1: you for keeping our family show VIV going.

138
00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:48,640
Speaker 2: I didn't even give you the ammunition needed to google

139
00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:50,200
Speaker 2: the other words. So that's right.

140
00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:56,280
Speaker 1: And since we mentioned Japan earlier, technically that word is

141
00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:58,600
Speaker 1: a food dish.

142
00:07:58,240 --> 00:07:58,640
Speaker 2: That's right.

143
00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:04,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, so we will not take our minds out of

144
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:08,600
Speaker 1: the gutter. I do appreciate that idea about perspective there,

145
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:14,040
Speaker 1: because one person's crazy is another person's normal. Think about,

146
00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:17,160
Speaker 1: for instance, like when you hear us discuss this stuff.

147
00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:21,960
Speaker 1: However strange it may sound, please remember that you probably

148
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:25,800
Speaker 1: have some things in your life that sound very strange

149
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:30,000
Speaker 1: to outsiders. I always love the example of neckties.

150
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:33,559
Speaker 2: Were it a tie, it's weird? What's it for? What

151
00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:38,960
Speaker 2: does it do? Yeah? It holds your tie pin collection,

152
00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:42,040
Speaker 2: that's yeah. You know what would set off my three

153
00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:46,520
Speaker 2: piece suit? A useless scarf, A thing that looks like

154
00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:49,520
Speaker 2: a scarf but doesn't do it anyway. Sorry, we digress.

155
00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:52,000
Speaker 2: We should do We should do a history of neckties.

156
00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:58,319
Speaker 2: We should because its yeah, the policy wonks rock and

157
00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:01,520
Speaker 2: the bow tie. We also have we have a short

158
00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:04,560
Speaker 2: brain stuff video on it where we figure out. No,

159
00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:08,240
Speaker 2: no spoilers, nobody look that up. Why does of Islam

160
00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:10,760
Speaker 2: guys all wear bow ties? Where did that come from?

161
00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:13,200
Speaker 2: So many questions that we will explore in a future

162
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:14,640
Speaker 2: episode on the history of ties.

163
00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:18,840
Speaker 1: And while we're working on that, oh, we cannot wait

164
00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:22,920
Speaker 1: to introduce you to, as Noel said, Buzkashi, which is

165
00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:30,720
Speaker 1: best stereotyped as the dead goat sport of Afghanistand.

166
00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:32,920
Speaker 2: Okay, I'm on board. Tell me Mark, all right, yeah,

167
00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:34,040
Speaker 2: you're interested. All right.

168
00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:40,080
Speaker 1: So this is a traditional, very old sport in the area,

169
00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:47,480
Speaker 1: actually in Central Asia overall that involves horse riding, teamwork

170
00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:55,880
Speaker 1: and the skillful control of a dead goat or calf carcass. Okay,

171
00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:57,320
Speaker 1: so it's like carcass polo.

172
00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:01,480
Speaker 2: Yes, nailed it. But you use your hand instead of

173
00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:02,040
Speaker 2: a stick.

174
00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:04,800
Speaker 1: Depends on where you're at. Yeah, yeah, you do use

175
00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:07,880
Speaker 1: your hands. It's rugby on a horse. It's tough with

176
00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:08,480
Speaker 1: a carcass.

177
00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:11,120
Speaker 2: What is this thing in the middle they're all flopping into.

178
00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:14,080
Speaker 2: It's like a giant dog dish that they sort of

179
00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:17,320
Speaker 2: bail out into. What the heck? Yeah? Wow? Is that

180
00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:19,440
Speaker 2: how you score? Oh? It is that's the goal. You

181
00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:23,000
Speaker 2: deposit the carcass into the dog dish, but sometimes you

182
00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:25,960
Speaker 2: go with it with your whole body. We're watching a

183
00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:31,640
Speaker 2: YouTube video. This is nuts. So we're watching YouTube video. Folks.

184
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:35,680
Speaker 2: You should watch it like sports now. Yeah, it's it

185
00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:39,840
Speaker 2: is a wild ride. I actually ran late to recording.

186
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:41,679
Speaker 2: I think I told you guys. I'm sorry.

187
00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:45,959
Speaker 1: I'm in this rabbit hole of Buzkashi videos Like, Noel,

188
00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:47,679
Speaker 1: could you describe what you're seeing?

189
00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:50,000
Speaker 2: Oh? I think I already did, but I'll gladly do

190
00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:52,920
Speaker 2: it again. It's literally like all of these dudes on

191
00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:57,600
Speaker 2: horses smacking each other's horses on the butt like it

192
00:10:57,640 --> 00:10:59,960
Speaker 2: seems like it's a no hole's barred type situation. They're right,

193
00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:03,920
Speaker 2: and these tight packs, and I guess they're vying for

194
00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:09,320
Speaker 2: control of this literal like dead goat looking thing, which

195
00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:11,640
Speaker 2: I will get into in a little bit about like

196
00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:17,000
Speaker 2: what's the modern you know, substitute for actual dead goat carcass.

197
00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:21,080
Speaker 2: But yeah, they deposit it into this giant like it

198
00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:23,480
Speaker 2: looks like a mound kind of or really a dog dish,

199
00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:25,040
Speaker 2: I think is the best way to describe it. But

200
00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:28,640
Speaker 2: sometimes they'll just dive in along with it, and people

201
00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:31,480
Speaker 2: are diving after them to try to I guess, knock

202
00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:33,920
Speaker 2: it out of the goal. They use these riding crops.

203
00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:38,120
Speaker 2: It is they're wearing furry hats. Yes, yes, and also

204
00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:42,840
Speaker 2: I we have to do it. We're going to play

205
00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:46,400
Speaker 2: just a brief clip of the audio that I would

206
00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:52,360
Speaker 2: argue does not match for this so very reserved. It's

207
00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:56,280
Speaker 2: actually it's like no commentary, no shade to.

208
00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:59,560
Speaker 1: Our past, our past endeavors. But it reminds me of

209
00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:02,199
Speaker 1: some of the best stock music we would use in

210
00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:02,880
Speaker 1: brain stuff.

211
00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:10,839
Speaker 2: Got it, okay, golds Bob in his head, got a

212
00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:16,480
Speaker 2: littlettention in it? Okay, all right, okay, ah ah right, okay,

213
00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:17,120
Speaker 2: that's what we need.

214
00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:21,160
Speaker 1: We need an ad lib on that. Yeah. Anyway, so

215
00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:26,319
Speaker 1: we we invite you to this rabbit hole of clips

216
00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:33,240
Speaker 1: that are just as nol described, clearly expert equestrians, horsemen

217
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:39,160
Speaker 1: who are passing around this literal dead body in rugby

218
00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:42,520
Speaker 1: style like they're going for it. They're getting it. This

219
00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:46,280
Speaker 1: is believed to have been played as early as the

220
00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:51,080
Speaker 1: tenth century. Oh and bluskashi means goat grabbing.

221
00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:55,079
Speaker 2: That's accurate. That's accurate description of what I'm seeing here.

222
00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:58,560
Speaker 2: I just paused it on a frame and it's just

223
00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:02,320
Speaker 2: like melee there on top of each other on these

224
00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:04,720
Speaker 2: with these horses, And like I said, the riding crops,

225
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:08,280
Speaker 2: it seems more designed for smacking the other person's horse

226
00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:10,040
Speaker 2: to get them to like giddy up in the wrong

227
00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:12,120
Speaker 2: direction or something. I don't know. I wanted to.

228
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:14,760
Speaker 1: Get knocked off their horses into the dish.

229
00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:19,280
Speaker 2: Is there a professional association of this sport with codified rules?

230
00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:22,560
Speaker 2: It seems just like I said, every every player for

231
00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:26,080
Speaker 2: themselves to answer that question. No one is sure how

232
00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:30,120
Speaker 2: buzkashi or goat grabbing in Dari, the version of Persian

233
00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:32,240
Speaker 2: language has spoken in a lot of Afghanistan, where it

234
00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:36,320
Speaker 2: originated on the steps of Central Asia. But one possible

235
00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:40,560
Speaker 2: theory involves the evolution of the sports centuries ago as

236
00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:43,720
Speaker 2: a battle exercise for Mongol raiders, which I could see

237
00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:46,760
Speaker 2: that makes sense as like running a running a simulation

238
00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:48,560
Speaker 2: of what it might be like to have to like

239
00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:50,840
Speaker 2: do battle a top horse pack.

240
00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:55,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, and for everybody asking, we'll get into the rules.

241
00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:58,960
Speaker 1: But first thing you should know you don't get points

242
00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:02,040
Speaker 1: for getting knocked off your horse. And these guys are

243
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:06,120
Speaker 1: getting smacked off their horses left and right pursuing this goat.

244
00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:09,680
Speaker 1: It's kind of it's it's like rugby, it's like hockey,

245
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:14,599
Speaker 1: but as you said, on a horse, uh yeah, yeah yeah.

246
00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:19,800
Speaker 1: And these days it's played across Eurasia. Depending on which

247
00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:24,240
Speaker 1: of the stands you're in, you might see different rules

248
00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:30,120
Speaker 1: because as you mentioned, there are they're not really specific

249
00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:33,280
Speaker 1: codified rules for how to play this game. Like in

250
00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:37,960
Speaker 1: Kizikhstan and Kazakhstan they have a team format and you

251
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:42,520
Speaker 1: throw the calf, carcass or the goat into those raised goals.

252
00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:45,120
Speaker 1: And I love your description. It does look like a

253
00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:49,080
Speaker 1: big dog dish, like a dish for Clifford the giant

254
00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:56,000
Speaker 1: red dog. And you mentioned something else. Nowadays, because this

255
00:14:56,600 --> 00:15:02,280
Speaker 1: sport is still extremely popular nowadays, they're not necessarily using

256
00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:08,440
Speaker 1: actual carcasses. They're using like fake faux carcasses for carcass.

257
00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:10,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, like like like the fake first, so you don't

258
00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:13,120
Speaker 2: get paint dumped on you. But problem there is if

259
00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:15,120
Speaker 2: they look too real, you're still going to get the paint.

260
00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:19,280
Speaker 1: And in parts of western China, like I think to

261
00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:23,600
Speaker 1: Xinyang and stuff like that, the mounts, the people are

262
00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:26,960
Speaker 1: riding yaks instead of horses, And I get to be

263
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:31,360
Speaker 1: honest with you, guys, I don't know the difference between

264
00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:34,400
Speaker 1: the ground speed of a yak versus the ground speed

265
00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:37,560
Speaker 1: of a horse. I always problem it feels like it

266
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:42,480
Speaker 1: like I always pictured horses as the faster ones.

267
00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:44,920
Speaker 2: But I don't know. Yaks have always struck me as

268
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:47,760
Speaker 2: being a little on the weedy side. You know, they

269
00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:49,920
Speaker 2: got thin little legs. I just don't feel like they'd

270
00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:52,560
Speaker 2: have the stamina that a horse would have. Maybe that's

271
00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:54,200
Speaker 2: just what they've got laying around. You know, they got

272
00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:57,840
Speaker 2: more ya so you know, you know what, Ben, We're

273
00:15:57,840 --> 00:16:01,200
Speaker 2: looking up some pictures of yaks right now, and they're

274
00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:03,480
Speaker 2: not the animals that I was quite picturing. I don't know,

275
00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:06,840
Speaker 2: I was weird thinking al Paka or so Lama maybe,

276
00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:09,240
Speaker 2: but I was pictured maybe a cartoon yaks, or like

277
00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:12,760
Speaker 2: an emaciated yak from Ren and Stimpy. Weren't there weird yaks?

278
00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:14,960
Speaker 2: And there was yaks in Ren and Stimpy. They had

279
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:18,120
Speaker 2: like the Yaks Club or the the like an Elks

280
00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:19,840
Speaker 2: lodge thing, but it was with yaks, and they were

281
00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:23,520
Speaker 2: always real diseased and weedy looking. But these boys are

282
00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:27,680
Speaker 2: furry and beefy. They're like a buffalo, Yes, yeah.

283
00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:31,760
Speaker 1: Buffalo, like the younger, smaller cousin of a bison. But

284
00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:35,200
Speaker 1: to be quite honest, they don't look like they can

285
00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:36,680
Speaker 1: run as quickly as a horse.

286
00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:41,000
Speaker 2: Deck is sure, buck though. Yeah they got the horns,

287
00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:43,240
Speaker 2: twenty horns. That seems like I would add a level

288
00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:47,880
Speaker 2: of danger to an already quite dangerous sport. So let's

289
00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:49,280
Speaker 2: go back. That's a great point.

290
00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:52,560
Speaker 1: Let's go back to that theory, uh, that this was

291
00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:58,960
Speaker 1: a training exercise for Mongol forces. Right, we know that

292
00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:02,800
Speaker 1: part of the reason the Connates existed and got all

293
00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:08,000
Speaker 1: the way to Hungary is because the cavalry was amazing.

294
00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:13,280
Speaker 1: They had they had horsemanship that was unprecedented at their time.

295
00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:19,720
Speaker 1: So perhaps these nomadic tribes gamified their practice, right, they

296
00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:23,520
Speaker 1: honed their riding and hunting skills, and then over time

297
00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:26,879
Speaker 1: it becomes a popular sport in the region. And it

298
00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:31,639
Speaker 1: you know, what it reminds me of is all the

299
00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:34,920
Speaker 1: sports that require a lot of equipment. Like a lot

300
00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:39,320
Speaker 1: of kids in the US never play American football because

301
00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:42,080
Speaker 1: you have to buy so much stuff just to get

302
00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:42,639
Speaker 1: on the field.

303
00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:47,440
Speaker 2: The pads, the helmet, the mean football is expensive. Yeah.

304
00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:52,520
Speaker 1: No pigskin, right right, right, yeah, the old pigskin. So

305
00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:54,879
Speaker 1: we got to be careful not to judge these people,

306
00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:55,720
Speaker 1: isn't that right?

307
00:17:56,160 --> 00:18:00,879
Speaker 2: Is American football just another form of throwing around a

308
00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:02,080
Speaker 2: faux carcass.

309
00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:06,239
Speaker 1: Without even the horses. So you can't really play this

310
00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:10,560
Speaker 1: game unless you have a worse And this, again from

311
00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:15,919
Speaker 1: a cultural standpoint, seems like a fascinating thing to be

312
00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:20,520
Speaker 1: good at. You can tell their pro buskashi players. However,

313
00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:23,359
Speaker 1: the fun Police came in to Afghanistan.

314
00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:25,440
Speaker 2: Damn it, fun police. I hate it when they show

315
00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:27,080
Speaker 2: up bus kills.

316
00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:30,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, I got the name wrong one time. I thought

317
00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:32,160
Speaker 1: the fun Police were pro fun.

318
00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:36,240
Speaker 2: No, no, sir, Yes, they're here to police your fun,

319
00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:39,280
Speaker 2: shut it down, they say when they come upon a

320
00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:40,800
Speaker 2: child's birthday party.

321
00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:44,879
Speaker 1: Or like that movie Footloose is nothing for some reason.

322
00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:48,200
Speaker 2: Band it's a bit of a puritanical kind of mindset,

323
00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:52,159
Speaker 2: that's true. And in this case, the ultra conservative Taliban

324
00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:54,520
Speaker 2: are these, said fun police. We've heard of them. They

325
00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:58,080
Speaker 2: banned a buskashi and many other forms of entertainment, citing

326
00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:02,000
Speaker 2: them as being immoral, but of course, like many things

327
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:06,520
Speaker 2: that are attempted to be suppressed, they continue to thrive. Mmmm.

328
00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:09,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, the ultra conservative Taliban.

329
00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:13,359
Speaker 2: You know them, You know you know, you do know,

330
00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:17,040
Speaker 2: you do know they're in the news. Yeah, they're around.

331
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:22,200
Speaker 1: And during their rule they bands, like you said, this

332
00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:27,199
Speaker 1: sport because they found it somehow contra you know, they

333
00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:32,440
Speaker 1: fund policed it. And with the larger fall of the Taliban,

334
00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:39,640
Speaker 1: the sport became popular again. Their international tournaments across Eurasia

335
00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:45,240
Speaker 1: and the Afghan government, which is not the world's most

336
00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:51,359
Speaker 1: perfect government, promotes bouskashi as a symbol of national identity.

337
00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:54,840
Speaker 1: They want you to go watch a buskasi game.

338
00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:57,719
Speaker 2: So with that in mind, maybe we should, you know,

339
00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:01,200
Speaker 2: talk about how the sport is played. Uh, because as

340
00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:04,280
Speaker 2: an American myself, I'm still a bit hazy on the

341
00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:07,560
Speaker 2: rules of American football. There's something to do with downs

342
00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:13,159
Speaker 2: and running in directions and then count the quarters of

343
00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:14,240
Speaker 2: the game, I believe.

344
00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:16,879
Speaker 1: And you it's called football, but you only run it

345
00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:19,760
Speaker 1: with your hands. There's a little bit of kicking one.

346
00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:20,919
Speaker 1: There's a special moment.

347
00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:23,240
Speaker 2: There's a special time that the special boy gets to

348
00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:26,520
Speaker 2: kick the special ball, the special boy the Golden foot.

349
00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:30,360
Speaker 1: Shout out to Nate Bargates as well for his amazing

350
00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:34,879
Speaker 1: Saturday Night Live stuff. We got his George Washington sketch

351
00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:38,080
Speaker 1: in particular, Max, the spirit has moved you.

352
00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:40,840
Speaker 3: Well, So the best way to think about downs and

353
00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:44,320
Speaker 3: football is how many trench warfare?

354
00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:49,840
Speaker 2: Trench warfares? Right warfare? Okay, Okay, Basically you get.

355
00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:54,440
Speaker 3: Like four tries to move the line and then once

356
00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:56,639
Speaker 3: you move the line to make a new line and

357
00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:57,800
Speaker 3: something like that, it's trench warfare.

358
00:20:58,040 --> 00:20:59,960
Speaker 2: Okay. Hey, you know what, Max, I'm sorry I was

359
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:03,560
Speaker 2: poopooing you there. That is actually the best description of

360
00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:05,600
Speaker 2: it in a way that I can understand from a

361
00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:08,360
Speaker 2: historical level. Being you know, history podcast.

362
00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:11,480
Speaker 3: Nerds, I try to bridge the gap between being a

363
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:14,560
Speaker 3: history nerd and a sports nerd with a plumb. I

364
00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:18,439
Speaker 3: have the benefit of having a lot of non sport

365
00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:20,600
Speaker 3: hosts in my family and my friend group.

366
00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:24,000
Speaker 2: Thank you Max for you brought the porto. Yeah, I

367
00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:26,800
Speaker 2: said it first. Now I said brought it back. I said,

368
00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:30,320
Speaker 2: brought it back to sporto. I think that's a British

369
00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:32,919
Speaker 2: thing and maybe even Australia, because they'll even say if

370
00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:35,479
Speaker 2: someone's a news reporter, they'll call them news oh's, and

371
00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:38,600
Speaker 2: if someone is a musician, they call them muso's. And

372
00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:41,480
Speaker 2: if someone goes to McDonald's they call it Macca's that's

373
00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:43,920
Speaker 2: weird now, I think you're talking about Paul McCartney. There

374
00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:47,800
Speaker 2: is that what they call them, They just call them macca.

375
00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:50,240
Speaker 2: People call Paul McCartney macca. It's a thing. You gotta

376
00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:53,080
Speaker 2: put syr on it. Though Australia, you're part of the

377
00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:55,520
Speaker 2: common one. What's some respect on this? Oh? Speaking of which,

378
00:21:55,560 --> 00:21:59,280
Speaker 2: sorry to interrupt this, but did you see that King

379
00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:03,840
Speaker 2: Charles recently did a diplomatic visit to Australia and an

380
00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:09,840
Speaker 2: indigenous member of the Australian whatever equivalent of Congress protested

381
00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:13,560
Speaker 2: it very loudly and said, you know, Colonizer, give us

382
00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:15,680
Speaker 2: back what you stole and all this stuff we don't

383
00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:17,919
Speaker 2: And she's I can't remember her name. I love this

384
00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:19,760
Speaker 2: person because she even said, you know, they have to

385
00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:22,400
Speaker 2: take an oath to the king, to the royal family,

386
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:25,119
Speaker 2: and she said, I did not swear fealty to the

387
00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:28,639
Speaker 2: Queen's heirs. When I said the oath, I said her hairs.

388
00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:32,639
Speaker 2: Oh yes, I did read about it, freaking absolutely also

389
00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:33,800
Speaker 2: a ninja level.

390
00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:36,520
Speaker 1: I didn't know the name. Yeah, it's up with throwing

391
00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:39,160
Speaker 1: a shoe at an American politician to.

392
00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:41,560
Speaker 2: Claim that you are not beholden to your oath because

393
00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:46,800
Speaker 2: you said hairs instead of airs. So the Indigenous senator

394
00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:52,760
Speaker 2: was Lydia or is Lydia Thorpe th h Orpe?

395
00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:56,080
Speaker 1: That this one. I read the headline, but I did

396
00:22:56,119 --> 00:23:01,080
Speaker 1: not know the name. And with that your your point

397
00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:06,000
Speaker 1: about hair's h A I R S versus h E

398
00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:07,000
Speaker 1: I R S.

399
00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:10,400
Speaker 2: I don't think that's the parkour we're looking for. No,

400
00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:13,120
Speaker 2: not today. But you gotta admit though, with an Australian accent,

401
00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:16,160
Speaker 2: you could very easily kind of blur the line between

402
00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:19,480
Speaker 2: as and has. You know, I'm just saying you could

403
00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:22,439
Speaker 2: shout out Robin Thick indeed in the thick of it.

404
00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:24,600
Speaker 2: So yeah, sorry, I didn't mean to derailist. I think

405
00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:28,480
Speaker 2: it was. Let's talk about what what what? What makes?

406
00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:31,280
Speaker 2: What does a Boo's Kashi team make?

407
00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:40,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, we want to hip you to this because we

408
00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:43,720
Speaker 1: don't want you to be stuck like some of us

409
00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:47,280
Speaker 1: out in Ireland watching a game of cricket and having

410
00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:48,680
Speaker 1: no idea what's going on?

411
00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:50,480
Speaker 2: Is that? What's happening with you right now? Ben? It

412
00:23:50,720 --> 00:23:52,840
Speaker 2: looks like you're in your home. I guess I could

413
00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:55,040
Speaker 2: just be a do you only stay in hotels in

414
00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:56,960
Speaker 2: Ireland that look exactly like your living room.

415
00:23:57,160 --> 00:24:02,240
Speaker 1: I only stay in places that look exactly like Dexter's

416
00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:05,320
Speaker 1: kill room. Got with this with the plastic sheets on No,

417
00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:08,479
Speaker 1: I'm under I'm doing human stuff. I get a poster

418
00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:09,520
Speaker 1: of our other show on.

419
00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:14,400
Speaker 2: The back here I'm doing human today. Right. So, so

420
00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:17,720
Speaker 2: you got ten ten to a team? Right? Or is

421
00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:19,960
Speaker 2: that a hard and fast number.

422
00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:22,320
Speaker 1: Or depends on where you go. So it's a it's

423
00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:26,120
Speaker 1: a large field. There are two teams. Each team has

424
00:24:26,359 --> 00:24:31,359
Speaker 1: ten humans and therefore ten horses. And usually you're gonna

425
00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:32,800
Speaker 1: have a carcass.

426
00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:37,280
Speaker 2: Go or a calf. Often there is a carcass right right.

427
00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:41,959
Speaker 1: Or you know, some sort of symbolic representation, right, some

428
00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:42,960
Speaker 1: kind of pig skin.

429
00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:45,120
Speaker 2: Perhaps, have you ever been Naikea? Or they have those

430
00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:47,800
Speaker 2: fake like cow rugs. You know, I don't think they're

431
00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:49,880
Speaker 2: actually made of cow, but they look at You could

432
00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:53,200
Speaker 2: probably rock one of those in a good old friendly

433
00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:54,280
Speaker 2: game of buzkashi.

434
00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:56,399
Speaker 1: A good friendly game of Buzkashi.

435
00:24:56,520 --> 00:24:57,600
Speaker 2: I love it. Just sew it up.

436
00:24:57,840 --> 00:25:01,800
Speaker 1: Here's the gross part or the other growth spart just

437
00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:07,480
Speaker 1: for practicality, the head and the limbs of this carcass

438
00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:11,160
Speaker 1: are removed. The object of the game, like you said earlier,

439
00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:14,679
Speaker 1: NOL is for a horseman to pick up the carcass

440
00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:18,840
Speaker 1: from the ground and carry it to the opposing team's goal.

441
00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:21,440
Speaker 1: It's like the old capture of the flag game.

442
00:25:21,640 --> 00:25:25,879
Speaker 2: Yeah. I've spent very little time on horseback, but just

443
00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:28,400
Speaker 2: looking at it, I mean it is quite a distance

444
00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:32,480
Speaker 2: from the top of the horse to the ground, depending

445
00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:34,720
Speaker 2: on the size of the horse. You have to be good.

446
00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:39,240
Speaker 2: There's a certain skill level required, there's a learning curve.

447
00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:42,439
Speaker 2: And they're not strapped in or anything. They're leaning down

448
00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:45,280
Speaker 2: and just scooping this thing up off the ground, all

449
00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:50,200
Speaker 2: while being pursued heavily and aggressively by other horsemen.

450
00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:54,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, who are hitting you and hitting your horse And

451
00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:57,360
Speaker 1: there's not really a fourth down here. And I want

452
00:25:57,400 --> 00:26:00,959
Speaker 1: to co sign you and cosign Max Max. That was

453
00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:07,000
Speaker 1: an excellent explanation of US football, especially given the science

454
00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:10,920
Speaker 1: of how they make the line appear on US football,

455
00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:13,560
Speaker 1: it's I don't want to get too house.

456
00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:14,359
Speaker 2: Stuff works, you not.

457
00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:17,760
Speaker 3: But did you hear that they this season in the

458
00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:20,000
Speaker 3: NFL they plan to get rid of the chains like

459
00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:22,639
Speaker 3: you know? Yes I did, And did you hear they

460
00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:25,200
Speaker 3: didn't do it. They're still there. No, I have looked

461
00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:27,440
Speaker 3: into it. They're still there. They still use them, of.

462
00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:30,480
Speaker 1: Course they still do. Come on, man, Vegas has too

463
00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:31,520
Speaker 1: much riding on this.

464
00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:35,040
Speaker 3: It's a multi billion dollar sport. And then they rely

465
00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:39,639
Speaker 3: on two dudes jogging somewhat correctly and lines over and

466
00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:41,879
Speaker 3: they can't put a camera angle over the goal one

467
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:42,399
Speaker 3: or anything.

468
00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:43,120
Speaker 2: It's terrible.

469
00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:47,520
Speaker 1: It's also it's also uh oh gosh, it is this

470
00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:53,160
Speaker 1: sport that is most riddled with commercials during during playtime.

471
00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:55,880
Speaker 2: Ooh, I wish you guys could see Max's face right there. Well,

472
00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:57,280
Speaker 2: I mean, it's sort of that one thing I do

473
00:26:57,359 --> 00:26:59,280
Speaker 2: understand about the nature of the way the game is played.

474
00:26:59,280 --> 00:27:02,560
Speaker 2: It is played in little spurts, and it is conducive

475
00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:04,840
Speaker 2: to being interrupted by advertising.

476
00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:09,080
Speaker 3: And then now they're putting advertisements in like thirty second spots.

477
00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:12,920
Speaker 3: I personally not the biggest football guy at this point

478
00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:14,800
Speaker 3: in my life. I watched just NFL Red Zone, which

479
00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:16,760
Speaker 3: is no commercials at all.

480
00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:20,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, just give me the compilations of what actually happened.

481
00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:23,119
Speaker 1: That may be I'd never have the compilations of the commercials,

482
00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:26,359
Speaker 1: you know. I feel like we should do a history

483
00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:27,440
Speaker 1: of the halftime show.

484
00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:29,919
Speaker 2: Oh boy, should we ever? I don't even know when

485
00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:32,000
Speaker 2: the first one was we did. We were coming on

486
00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:34,320
Speaker 2: with so many ideas on the flight tip and just.

487
00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:36,480
Speaker 3: I know we're going further down's rabbit hole. One big

488
00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:39,919
Speaker 3: difference between the Super Bowl and just regular NFL is

489
00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:42,720
Speaker 3: super Bowl is all brand new ads almost always, Like

490
00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:46,320
Speaker 3: these companies are really going all out for normal football.

491
00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:49,200
Speaker 3: It is the same like twenty ads the entire.

492
00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:50,479
Speaker 2: Uh sucking season.

493
00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:54,280
Speaker 3: Leap yourself there, except for in college football where it's

494
00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:58,040
Speaker 3: the same twenty ads for five years.

495
00:27:57,760 --> 00:28:00,680
Speaker 2: And they give all those dollars to the players there

496
00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:03,600
Speaker 2: in college football. Right they're starting to, They are starting to.

497
00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:07,359
Speaker 1: They are starting to also. I think you earned it, Max,

498
00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:08,400
Speaker 1: with the facts.

499
00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:16,439
Speaker 2: That seeking in the phone and peaceful in knowledge. It's

500
00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:22,680
Speaker 2: just for you right now, with the fact yeah, give

501
00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:23,280
Speaker 2: it to them.

502
00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:29,680
Speaker 1: So for a live audience member of Buskashi, you'll see

503
00:28:29,760 --> 00:28:34,359
Speaker 1: it's a long event. The game is generally divided into

504
00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:38,560
Speaker 1: two forty five minute periods. There's a fifteen minute break

505
00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:42,840
Speaker 1: in between. And to your earlier question, Noel, there are

506
00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:47,560
Speaker 1: no codified rules about how the game is played. It

507
00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:50,880
Speaker 1: can be pretty rough. We described how the players are

508
00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:53,040
Speaker 1: hitting each other, pushing each other.

509
00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:56,320
Speaker 2: You can't have a weapon, you know what I mean.

510
00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:58,560
Speaker 2: You can't just stab some guys. I know, but they

511
00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:02,200
Speaker 2: do have these writing crops, but they are absolutely spanking

512
00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:04,800
Speaker 2: the other players. Okay, well, how kind of a weapon.

513
00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:08,240
Speaker 2: Hockey players have hockey sticks, that's true. This thing is

514
00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:10,320
Speaker 2: more like a blackjack though, or like what do they

515
00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:12,200
Speaker 2: call it in the UK? A truncheon, you know.

516
00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:15,320
Speaker 1: And the witty tea, of course, is the one that

517
00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:16,800
Speaker 1: gets the most goals.

518
00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:19,200
Speaker 2: You get to take the carcass home. Is that is

519
00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:22,440
Speaker 2: that part of your winnings. It depends on where you're playing. Okay,

520
00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:24,720
Speaker 2: fair and you know.

521
00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:27,320
Speaker 1: I guess it's a tenderized corpse at that point.

522
00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:27,680
Speaker 2: Right.

523
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:30,840
Speaker 1: Uh, it's more than a sport, Like we said, it's

524
00:29:30,840 --> 00:29:35,240
Speaker 1: a symbol of national identity. You play it during important

525
00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:41,360
Speaker 1: holidays celebrations. It's uh, it's considered a tradition, kind of

526
00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:46,000
Speaker 1: the way that baseball is considered an American tradition. Right,

527
00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:49,080
Speaker 1: we all love going to the ballgame.

528
00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:55,720
Speaker 2: It's as Afghanistani as a severed headed goat carcass, right right?

529
00:29:57,080 --> 00:30:00,920
Speaker 1: Or or also Afghan cuisine is pretty good. I wonder

530
00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:03,320
Speaker 1: what their equivalent of apple pie is.

531
00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:07,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, probably goat pie. Okay, I don't know. I would

532
00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:09,120
Speaker 2: eat that, by the way, and I love goat The

533
00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:11,080
Speaker 2: only issue. Have you ever had Caribbean food that has.

534
00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:13,040
Speaker 1: Ghosts and they'll bone them?

535
00:30:13,160 --> 00:30:17,480
Speaker 2: Very well? No, you can do better. I mean sorry,

536
00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:20,600
Speaker 2: Maybe it's just tradition, but I have often found like

537
00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:24,960
Speaker 2: deadly shards of bone and Caribbean goat dishes not so.

538
00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:27,560
Speaker 2: And like Indian goat dishes or Bangladesh she goat dishes,

539
00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:30,560
Speaker 2: they clean it much more precisely. Yeah.

540
00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:35,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, and this another point. Maybe this ends up being

541
00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:41,160
Speaker 1: part one of part one, but another point on what

542
00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:44,920
Speaker 1: is American culture. When you hear the phrase American is

543
00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:52,520
Speaker 1: apple pie, people, please remember apples come from Kazakhstan. We're

544
00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:56,280
Speaker 1: fun at parties, but apple pie ben comes from America.

545
00:30:57,720 --> 00:31:00,240
Speaker 2: I feel like someone figured out pie first. I think

546
00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:02,200
Speaker 2: I saw an episode of one of those Gordon Ramsay

547
00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:05,800
Speaker 2: shows where he humiliates people with terrible restaurants or hotels.

548
00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:09,840
Speaker 2: He went to the inn that was failing. Of course,

549
00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:13,560
Speaker 2: that was supposedly the place where apple pie was invented.

550
00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:16,680
Speaker 2: Really yeah, sort of like the Caesar Sally was invented

551
00:31:17,320 --> 00:31:19,640
Speaker 2: by in Mexico City. I want to say, by a

552
00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:21,640
Speaker 2: chef at a particular hotel.

553
00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:23,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, unrelated to the Greco Ruman.

554
00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:27,560
Speaker 2: Yeah. It took me years to realize that unrelated. Always

555
00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:31,120
Speaker 2: assumed it was Julius's favorite salad. I think he got

556
00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:34,800
Speaker 2: I don't think that guy even invented getting stabbed by

557
00:31:35,400 --> 00:31:38,760
Speaker 2: a bunch of your friends. I've been stabbing for generations

558
00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:40,000
Speaker 2: before Julius came along.

559
00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:42,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, we could do a history of apples. I think

560
00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:44,040
Speaker 1: a history of stabbing is.

561
00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:48,240
Speaker 2: The apple pie originated in England.

562
00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:52,640
Speaker 1: The apple pie apple, but the apples are from Kazakhstown

563
00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:53,560
Speaker 1: to the idea.

564
00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:55,800
Speaker 2: Of making it a pie made it all the way

565
00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:59,680
Speaker 2: from It was developed from culinary influences from France. It is,

566
00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:02,400
Speaker 2: of course, is French pastry and the Netherlands and even

567
00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:04,720
Speaker 2: the Automan Empire. It's not American at all.

568
00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:07,720
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh. This is like when you see a

569
00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:11,640
Speaker 1: T shirt. This has made in the USA with materials

570
00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:12,400
Speaker 1: from Yeah.

571
00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:16,000
Speaker 2: Oh I haven't seen that that. I'm sorry. So how

572
00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:20,719
Speaker 2: I feel about truck nuts? Who are we to judge?

573
00:32:21,040 --> 00:32:23,400
Speaker 2: Are we to judge? All right? All right?

574
00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:27,320
Speaker 1: Well this is also Buskashi is a way for the

575
00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:33,440
Speaker 1: public to judge off gonen men. All the buskashi players

576
00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:37,040
Speaker 1: are our male This is a way for them to

577
00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:42,440
Speaker 1: judge bravery, horsemanship, physical prowess, as we mentioned at the beginning.

578
00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:45,440
Speaker 1: And a lot of kids, you know, like in that

579
00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:48,200
Speaker 1: movie bend At, like Beckham, a lot of kids in

580
00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:53,240
Speaker 1: the area grow up dreaming of becoming notable buskashi players.

581
00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:58,200
Speaker 1: And it is not uncommon for families to put a

582
00:32:58,280 --> 00:33:01,320
Speaker 1: lot of money into, you know, editing the right equipment,

583
00:33:01,520 --> 00:33:06,400
Speaker 1: finding the best horse, finding the best buskashi mentor for

584
00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:07,080
Speaker 1: our child.

585
00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:10,440
Speaker 2: As we know, many, no, at least the degenerate gamblers

586
00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:13,239
Speaker 2: among us know, a big part about knowing how to

587
00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:18,520
Speaker 2: bet on horse races is knowing the abilities, the weaknesses,

588
00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:22,080
Speaker 2: the vulnerabilities, how long a particular horse has been racing.

589
00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:25,000
Speaker 2: All of that stuff really matters. So yeah, that would

590
00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:26,960
Speaker 2: honestly be just as if not more important than the

591
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:28,280
Speaker 2: physicality of the player.

592
00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:32,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, one hundred percent agreed, because the horses are kind

593
00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:34,920
Speaker 1: of doing the real work, right.

594
00:33:35,560 --> 00:33:37,880
Speaker 2: But I mean, you know, there is physicality involved in

595
00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:40,400
Speaker 2: the players, you know, much more so than horse racing

596
00:33:40,880 --> 00:33:42,560
Speaker 2: or I would say, I mean Polo's you know, certainly

597
00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:45,720
Speaker 2: revolves some precision, but they are bending down, putting their

598
00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:47,960
Speaker 2: lives at risk to be to be having their faces

599
00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:51,520
Speaker 2: trampled to whip this rug the off the dirt.

600
00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:55,920
Speaker 1: You know, we're so into this right now that we

601
00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:58,240
Speaker 1: know there are a lot of problems with buskashi, but

602
00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:02,480
Speaker 1: it is fascinating, and together we found quite a few

603
00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:07,560
Speaker 1: parallels to other sports, so much so that I think

604
00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:10,680
Speaker 1: we might have to save well, what do you think.

605
00:34:10,760 --> 00:34:14,040
Speaker 1: I think we have to save our next one for

606
00:34:14,200 --> 00:34:17,800
Speaker 1: a future episode, for a part two of part one,

607
00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:20,759
Speaker 1: Poka talk the ballgame.

608
00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:23,239
Speaker 2: It's true, and I agree with you, Ben. I think

609
00:34:23,320 --> 00:34:27,000
Speaker 2: Muzkashi captured all three of our imaginations and we went

610
00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:28,880
Speaker 2: on a little bit more about it than we expected,

611
00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:32,280
Speaker 2: And we do have another kind of deeper dive into

612
00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:35,120
Speaker 2: that other sport that you mentioned, Ben, But for now,

613
00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:39,520
Speaker 2: let's just rattle through a few fun candice and trivia

614
00:34:39,560 --> 00:34:42,680
Speaker 2: on some other bizarre sports that are a little more nugget.

615
00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:47,799
Speaker 1: Like oh yeah, okay, fight sized, yes, yes, purposeful two parter.

616
00:34:48,160 --> 00:34:51,200
Speaker 1: Oh man, I'm so excited that we're talking about this

617
00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:53,080
Speaker 1: on air finally. I feel like you and I have

618
00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:58,160
Speaker 1: mentioned this on previous shows, but to go down together,

619
00:34:58,520 --> 00:35:01,759
Speaker 1: we learned. I think the same video went viral and

620
00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:04,640
Speaker 1: we both saw it or something, but we learned there

621
00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:12,280
Speaker 1: is another kind of equestrian sport called hobby horsing.

622
00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:16,239
Speaker 2: I'm pretending to ride a horse, Daddy, look at me,

623
00:35:16,560 --> 00:35:19,680
Speaker 2: Look at me, leap. It's basically just jumping over hurdles

624
00:35:20,200 --> 00:35:21,320
Speaker 2: carrying a stuffed animal.

625
00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:24,680
Speaker 1: But they're they're you know, they ride it like a

626
00:35:24,719 --> 00:35:29,520
Speaker 1: broom or I guess a horse like the bluz Kashi.

627
00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:31,960
Speaker 1: There are no limbs attached.

628
00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:36,400
Speaker 2: There's a stick that goes betwixt the legs, so you

629
00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:38,680
Speaker 2: are sort of mounting something. Yeah.

630
00:35:38,800 --> 00:35:42,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it's riding a hobby horse, which I don't

631
00:35:42,600 --> 00:35:45,640
Speaker 1: think is our hobby horse is still a popular toy.

632
00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:47,960
Speaker 2: I would say not popular. They are more of the

633
00:35:48,080 --> 00:35:51,200
Speaker 2: vintage variety. You think about them as like the kind

634
00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:54,000
Speaker 2: of president of kid in the eighteen hundreds would get

635
00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:56,920
Speaker 2: like Tiddley Winks or something. I can't remember when Tittley

636
00:35:56,960 --> 00:36:00,959
Speaker 2: Winks came around. Man, don't malign Tittley Winks. Tittley Wings

637
00:36:00,960 --> 00:36:06,879
Speaker 2: at the precursor to POGs, remembers. Yeah. Sure, yeah, I'm

638
00:36:06,920 --> 00:36:09,840
Speaker 2: still bullish on POGs. Heavily invested, heavily invested.

639
00:36:10,560 --> 00:36:13,320
Speaker 1: This sounds like a sketch you would see it.

640
00:36:13,360 --> 00:36:15,760
Speaker 2: I think you should leave to getting out of crypto

641
00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:17,800
Speaker 2: and putting everything into POGs baby.

642
00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:24,319
Speaker 1: Right, so we are describing this accurately. Hobby horsing involves

643
00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:28,919
Speaker 1: riding the imaginary horse over obstacles.

644
00:36:29,080 --> 00:36:32,319
Speaker 2: Do you have to bang coconuts together? While you're doing

645
00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:35,680
Speaker 2: you had somebody following behind you, perhaps your vale.

646
00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:39,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, I guess we shouldn't detegrate it too hard. We're

647
00:36:39,719 --> 00:36:43,960
Speaker 1: outsiders from that culture, but we can't say it does

648
00:36:44,040 --> 00:36:45,600
Speaker 1: take physical prowess.

649
00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:48,960
Speaker 2: For sure, but it is more just like basically hurdles,

650
00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:51,440
Speaker 2: Like it's sort of a triathl a track and field

651
00:36:51,520 --> 00:36:55,600
Speaker 2: thing whilst clutching this weird toy between your legs. And

652
00:36:55,640 --> 00:36:57,520
Speaker 2: I will say, you know, we're mocking in a little bit.

653
00:36:57,520 --> 00:36:59,360
Speaker 2: But if you watch the video that Ben you linked to,

654
00:37:00,480 --> 00:37:03,279
Speaker 2: everyone's kind of smiling and laughing in the audience, it

655
00:37:03,320 --> 00:37:06,560
Speaker 2: does appear that there is a wink wink knowingness to

656
00:37:06,760 --> 00:37:08,600
Speaker 2: how goofy this whole thing comes off.

657
00:37:09,160 --> 00:37:13,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it's wholesome. You see it in Scandinavia. Right,

658
00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:19,680
Speaker 1: Nobody is being hateful, and I'm glad we're pointing out

659
00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:23,840
Speaker 1: that we're not necessarily disparaging the sport. We get why,

660
00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:29,160
Speaker 1: we get why it's a grin worthy thing, but let's

661
00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:32,560
Speaker 1: also be honest. A lot of us listening tonight could

662
00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:36,160
Speaker 1: not do the same obstacle course as the hobby horsers.

663
00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:40,920
Speaker 2: It's tough. Is that the right word? Hobby horsers? Hobby

664
00:37:40,960 --> 00:37:47,399
Speaker 2: horse Yeah, hobby equestrians. You know what I don't now.

665
00:37:47,920 --> 00:37:51,000
Speaker 2: I think a questrian requires a live animal. I don't

666
00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:54,640
Speaker 2: think we should reserve that term for sentient beings. There's

667
00:37:54,680 --> 00:38:01,080
Speaker 2: a line.

668
00:38:01,880 --> 00:38:04,040
Speaker 1: You and I have been to England at some point,

669
00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:10,239
Speaker 1: but we've never gone as a group. Have you ever

670
00:38:10,280 --> 00:38:14,280
Speaker 1: heard of this next thing? I'm on the fence about

671
00:38:14,280 --> 00:38:16,520
Speaker 1: whether this should be a sport, and i'd love our

672
00:38:16,600 --> 00:38:20,200
Speaker 1: sport expert maxed way into after you explain what this is.

673
00:38:20,480 --> 00:38:25,680
Speaker 2: Cover your shins, boys, shin kicking. That's what it is.

674
00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:28,240
Speaker 2: It's exactly what it sounds like. Started in the seventeenth

675
00:38:28,320 --> 00:38:33,120
Speaker 2: century in England. Simply involves two grown men kicking each

676
00:38:33,120 --> 00:38:36,120
Speaker 2: other in the shins until one of them falls to

677
00:38:36,239 --> 00:38:37,600
Speaker 2: the ground in pain.

678
00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:41,160
Speaker 1: Is it like something that started at a bar? The

679
00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:43,160
Speaker 1: way the Guinness Book of World Records?

680
00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:48,080
Speaker 2: Have you guys heard the controversy around this, these professional

681
00:38:48,200 --> 00:38:53,360
Speaker 2: slap fighting events. Yes, people are getting like brain bleeds

682
00:38:53,400 --> 00:38:55,600
Speaker 2: and stuff. I mean it is gnarly. Have you ever

683
00:38:55,640 --> 00:38:58,839
Speaker 2: seen this? Guys are ridiculous historians out there as well.

684
00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:02,439
Speaker 2: It is a uf the Esque kind of sport that's

685
00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:04,319
Speaker 2: covered in that same way, with that same level of

686
00:39:04,440 --> 00:39:08,360
Speaker 2: extreme intensity, where there are two opponents face off against

687
00:39:08,360 --> 00:39:11,600
Speaker 2: each other and open handedly slap each other in the

688
00:39:11,640 --> 00:39:15,160
Speaker 2: face on the face with an open palm until one

689
00:39:15,160 --> 00:39:17,360
Speaker 2: of them falls out. So I would say shin kicking.

690
00:39:18,400 --> 00:39:20,800
Speaker 2: Got it? You ever been ever? They call it barking

691
00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:23,440
Speaker 2: your shins. Yes, it hurts.

692
00:39:23,800 --> 00:39:26,160
Speaker 1: It's because the bone is so close to the skids.

693
00:39:26,239 --> 00:39:29,840
Speaker 2: One hundred percent. This would suck. What psychotic Sato Massac

694
00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:35,000
Speaker 2: has came up with this nonsense? You know how people get?

695
00:39:35,360 --> 00:39:38,279
Speaker 2: They suck? People suck. I don't know.

696
00:39:38,560 --> 00:39:41,640
Speaker 1: I'm bullish on people. I see them as the POGs

697
00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:42,200
Speaker 1: of evolution.

698
00:39:42,239 --> 00:39:45,239
Speaker 2: I'm taking all my crypto and investing in people. Right.

699
00:39:47,560 --> 00:39:50,200
Speaker 2: I think they already tried that. I think it got canceled.

700
00:39:50,520 --> 00:39:54,759
Speaker 2: So okay, So uh, there were there were probably the

701
00:39:54,920 --> 00:39:59,239
Speaker 2: history is unclear, but there were probably a couple of

702
00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:05,000
Speaker 2: guys who got into clog fighting or purring as it's called.

703
00:40:05,320 --> 00:40:08,759
Speaker 2: Uh sometimes, yeah, I have a pr off.

704
00:40:09,560 --> 00:40:12,040
Speaker 1: There was probably some guy who barked his shin as

705
00:40:12,040 --> 00:40:14,239
Speaker 1: you say, and some other dude was like, oh, you

706
00:40:14,320 --> 00:40:16,240
Speaker 1: got weak shins, and he said.

707
00:40:16,680 --> 00:40:19,000
Speaker 2: I don't have weak shins. I guess you. You go

708
00:40:19,080 --> 00:40:24,200
Speaker 2: the week sheds. I'll prove it kicking shds. You get

709
00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:30,960
Speaker 2: saw now, yeah I would Australia there. Sorry, the next thing,

710
00:40:30,960 --> 00:40:32,600
Speaker 2: you know, it's a shin kicker off. You know, it's

711
00:40:32,600 --> 00:40:34,600
Speaker 2: just back and forth. It never ends when the violent

712
00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:37,600
Speaker 2: guy comes up and watches.

713
00:40:37,680 --> 00:40:40,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, so we have to go to Max. Max

714
00:40:40,360 --> 00:40:43,480
Speaker 1: is shin kicking a sport? Or should it be considered such?

715
00:40:43,640 --> 00:40:44,560
Speaker 2: Is it even cool?

716
00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:49,479
Speaker 3: So all I'm thinking about is the movie Dodgeball, which

717
00:40:49,520 --> 00:40:50,640
Speaker 3: is an all time banger.

718
00:40:50,719 --> 00:40:51,640
Speaker 2: It's a fun movie.

719
00:40:52,080 --> 00:40:55,800
Speaker 3: Most of his age fine, some of it has aged poorly.

720
00:40:55,880 --> 00:41:00,680
Speaker 2: Say, but those South Park guys were always equal opportunity offenders,

721
00:41:00,800 --> 00:41:03,919
Speaker 2: so I bet you it's within their wheelhouse. But maybe

722
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:04,480
Speaker 2: is it worse.

723
00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:07,320
Speaker 3: There's some stuff that's bad and there's just this one

724
00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:10,480
Speaker 3: particular line which it's like, oh my god, that was

725
00:41:10,520 --> 00:41:12,719
Speaker 3: not fine when they said that, and it's so much

726
00:41:12,719 --> 00:41:16,160
Speaker 3: worse now. Anyways, to digress, I mean that movie is

727
00:41:16,280 --> 00:41:21,600
Speaker 3: just a hilarious, NonStop amount of ridiculousness. And the best

728
00:41:21,600 --> 00:41:23,000
Speaker 3: thing is, like the best joke of all time is

729
00:41:23,200 --> 00:41:25,640
Speaker 3: ESPN The O Show. It was like ESPN eight where

730
00:41:25,680 --> 00:41:27,919
Speaker 3: played all the obscure stuff and it's a super cut

731
00:41:27,960 --> 00:41:30,520
Speaker 3: of stuff beforehand. And one of those sports they show

732
00:41:30,600 --> 00:41:33,359
Speaker 3: that's on the show is two dudes just whipping each other.

733
00:41:33,800 --> 00:41:36,279
Speaker 3: And that's what this feels like. So yeah, it's ESPN

734
00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:39,920
Speaker 3: The Show level stuff. So yeah, it's a sport. Nascar

735
00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:43,759
Speaker 3: is a sport, Poker's a sport. We can call shin

736
00:41:43,840 --> 00:41:46,439
Speaker 3: kicking a sport, all right, Okay, that's the word would

737
00:41:46,520 --> 00:41:50,640
Speaker 3: probably argue. It's not around on a professional level.

738
00:41:51,440 --> 00:41:56,080
Speaker 1: I am so glad you asked, because in twenty twenty four,

739
00:41:56,840 --> 00:42:01,440
Speaker 1: shin Kicking the World shin Kicking Championships returned to the

740
00:42:01,560 --> 00:42:07,239
Speaker 1: Cotswold Olympics spelled O L I M P I c K.

741
00:42:07,719 --> 00:42:13,320
Speaker 1: We have Olympics at home, kids, right, So it's pretty brutal.

742
00:42:13,520 --> 00:42:17,840
Speaker 1: It reminds me of the key and Peel slaphand. Yeah

743
00:42:17,320 --> 00:42:23,319
Speaker 1: ye sketch. So this is this is pretty insane. These

744
00:42:23,320 --> 00:42:26,560
Speaker 1: people are hurting their legs. If you are they allowed

745
00:42:26,600 --> 00:42:29,200
Speaker 1: to wear shin guards, surely not. I think at some

746
00:42:29,280 --> 00:42:33,520
Speaker 1: point there was straw padding. Yeah, you have to wear

747
00:42:34,040 --> 00:42:37,280
Speaker 1: soft shoes now. People used to wear steel toed boots

748
00:42:37,320 --> 00:42:40,760
Speaker 1: which probably broke some legs, and you have to stuff

749
00:42:41,080 --> 00:42:43,400
Speaker 1: the legs of your trousers with straw.

750
00:42:44,000 --> 00:42:46,040
Speaker 2: So it's sort of meant to be a throwback the

751
00:42:46,080 --> 00:42:50,600
Speaker 2: old timey, sort of traditional type sports, right it would

752
00:42:50,640 --> 00:42:55,160
Speaker 2: seem if they're employing woolens and straw.

753
00:42:55,320 --> 00:42:57,799
Speaker 1: You know, there's so many rules, right, Like you you

754
00:42:57,880 --> 00:43:01,319
Speaker 1: obviously can't hit someone in the face. You have to

755
00:43:01,520 --> 00:43:03,960
Speaker 1: just hit their shins, and I imagine you have to

756
00:43:04,080 --> 00:43:06,640
Speaker 1: just because it's in the name. You can only kick

757
00:43:06,680 --> 00:43:07,240
Speaker 1: their shins.

758
00:43:07,800 --> 00:43:10,080
Speaker 2: And then then of course there's a sister sport, ass

759
00:43:10,160 --> 00:43:13,400
Speaker 2: kicking right right as you know, you got some built

760
00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:15,600
Speaker 2: in padding there, or you can just shove a phone

761
00:43:15,640 --> 00:43:19,799
Speaker 2: book down your pantaloons. Yeah, we've all been there. We

762
00:43:20,080 --> 00:43:21,640
Speaker 2: also haven't been to. Oh.

763
00:43:21,719 --> 00:43:24,960
Speaker 1: I think it was Halloween being on our minds recently

764
00:43:25,400 --> 00:43:29,719
Speaker 1: that because we are spoiler, this is coming out after Halloween,

765
00:43:29,760 --> 00:43:32,960
Speaker 1: but we're recording it on October thirty first. Oh, yeah, yes,

766
00:43:33,960 --> 00:43:35,799
Speaker 1: giants pumpkin kayaking.

767
00:43:35,880 --> 00:43:37,920
Speaker 2: Okay, see I didn't look into this one yet, so

768
00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:40,800
Speaker 2: I'm going to go ahead. Is it literally a giant

769
00:43:40,800 --> 00:43:43,720
Speaker 2: pumpkin that has hollowed out and turned into a sea

770
00:43:44,480 --> 00:43:50,560
Speaker 2: faring vessel? I? Oh, water resistant vessel? Oh? I see.

771
00:43:51,040 --> 00:43:55,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, this is a recent one since nineteen ninety nine

772
00:43:55,800 --> 00:44:00,440
Speaker 1: in Windsor, Nova, Scotia, people get giant pumpkins and they

773
00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:05,440
Speaker 1: joined the Windsor Pumpkin Regatta. And this is more, This

774
00:44:05,520 --> 00:44:08,680
Speaker 1: is more like British baking show, you know what I mean.

775
00:44:08,880 --> 00:44:10,759
Speaker 2: They're all really nice and kind to each other and

776
00:44:10,840 --> 00:44:12,959
Speaker 2: help each other out when they're punkins spring a leak.

777
00:44:13,600 --> 00:44:17,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're they're having a ball, you know what I mean.

778
00:44:17,120 --> 00:44:19,200
Speaker 1: They're not throwing around a dead carcass.

779
00:44:20,160 --> 00:44:24,320
Speaker 2: They're not kicking. They're doing the pumpkin version of shin kicking.

780
00:44:25,960 --> 00:44:27,440
Speaker 2: It's it's a wholesome one.

781
00:44:27,440 --> 00:44:30,000
Speaker 1: And I think maybe that's where we end, unless you

782
00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:34,000
Speaker 1: want to mention one more pumpkin sport, which will be

783
00:44:34,200 --> 00:44:37,680
Speaker 1: very familiar to longtime fans of all our shows.

784
00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:41,879
Speaker 2: You mean punkin chunkin? I do, yeah, punkin chugging. Yes, yes,

785
00:44:42,120 --> 00:44:44,399
Speaker 2: I only heard about this recently, and I didn't even

786
00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:46,160
Speaker 2: really bother following up on what it was. I just

787
00:44:46,200 --> 00:44:48,560
Speaker 2: heard there's punkin Chunking going on. I'm like, that seems

788
00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:52,920
Speaker 2: delightfully seasonal. I don't think I know, is it literally?

789
00:44:53,000 --> 00:44:55,480
Speaker 2: Just like? Is it like? What's that game Cornhole? But

790
00:44:55,520 --> 00:44:58,520
Speaker 2: with pumpkins? Well? Have you ever thought I should build

791
00:44:58,560 --> 00:45:01,440
Speaker 2: a trebuche only every day when I wake up in

792
00:45:01,440 --> 00:45:04,880
Speaker 2: the morning. Then that's what keeps you going, right, do I?

793
00:45:04,920 --> 00:45:06,839
Speaker 2: And the fact that I never do it is the

794
00:45:06,880 --> 00:45:09,560
Speaker 2: only thing that keeps me going. I'm aspiring to it.

795
00:45:09,719 --> 00:45:13,560
Speaker 2: Once I accomplish it, my work is done. So punkin

796
00:45:13,719 --> 00:45:17,440
Speaker 2: Chunkin is this idea? Yeah, you don't need a you

797
00:45:17,480 --> 00:45:21,880
Speaker 2: don't need a tribute necessarily. It's chucking though, it's not chunking,

798
00:45:22,040 --> 00:45:23,200
Speaker 2: it's it's chucking.

799
00:45:23,600 --> 00:45:29,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, And the idea is creating your own device, a catapult,

800
00:45:29,120 --> 00:45:33,240
Speaker 1: a slingshot, a tribute to shoot or chuck a pumpkin

801
00:45:33,840 --> 00:45:36,960
Speaker 1: as far as you can. And way back in the day,

802
00:45:37,360 --> 00:45:41,359
Speaker 1: too many years ago now, we were owned by a

803
00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:44,280
Speaker 1: company called Discovery, and Discovery.

804
00:45:44,160 --> 00:45:45,880
Speaker 2: They're having a bit of trouble these days.

805
00:45:46,360 --> 00:45:50,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, and they had a show called punkin Chunkin. I

806
00:45:50,800 --> 00:45:53,400
Speaker 1: think we can say this now enough time has passed.

807
00:45:54,040 --> 00:45:57,239
Speaker 1: Every podcast that was around at the time had to

808
00:45:57,280 --> 00:45:59,640
Speaker 1: do an episode about punkin Chunkin.

809
00:46:00,239 --> 00:46:01,719
Speaker 2: That must have been where I heard about it for

810
00:46:01,760 --> 00:46:04,719
Speaker 2: the first time. Pumpkin chucking chucking. Yeah, but like you know,

811
00:46:04,960 --> 00:46:07,440
Speaker 2: colloquially they do sometimes refer to it as punkin junkin.

812
00:46:08,080 --> 00:46:09,800
Speaker 2: So but then, you know, this reminds me of It's

813
00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:12,840
Speaker 2: almost like the Pinewood Derby, you know where it is.

814
00:46:12,880 --> 00:46:17,680
Speaker 2: It's a technological challenge. I guess it showcases the pumpkins,

815
00:46:17,680 --> 00:46:20,880
Speaker 2: and you probably want a big fatty that splats real nice.

816
00:46:21,280 --> 00:46:25,799
Speaker 2: But basically you're being judged on your ability to engineer

817
00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:29,040
Speaker 2: a thing that throws another thing as far as possible,

818
00:46:29,040 --> 00:46:32,359
Speaker 2: which is engineering. Did you ever do Pinewood Derby? I did,

819
00:46:32,880 --> 00:46:34,839
Speaker 2: I did, and I don't think I did very well.

820
00:46:34,840 --> 00:46:36,960
Speaker 2: And all I remember from those days is like I

821
00:46:37,000 --> 00:46:39,320
Speaker 2: can't remember. Maybe you can answer this, is it illegal

822
00:46:39,760 --> 00:46:44,319
Speaker 2: to put coins to put weights? Well, because I know

823
00:46:44,440 --> 00:46:46,239
Speaker 2: people did it and I may have done it. But

824
00:46:46,360 --> 00:46:48,560
Speaker 2: now thinking back on and I'm like asking myself, was

825
00:46:48,600 --> 00:46:52,799
Speaker 2: that against the regulations? Well, it's kind of like are

826
00:46:52,840 --> 00:46:57,160
Speaker 2: you playing Muzkashi in Kyrghistan or in Kazakhstan. You know,

827
00:46:57,600 --> 00:47:01,640
Speaker 2: this was in Georgia, Oka the state. Just to be.

828
00:47:03,400 --> 00:47:06,200
Speaker 1: Uh, it's a because it's a cub Scout thing, right,

829
00:47:06,239 --> 00:47:07,160
Speaker 1: it was a cub Scout thing.

830
00:47:07,520 --> 00:47:07,960
Speaker 2: Okay.

831
00:47:08,239 --> 00:47:11,440
Speaker 1: So when I was playing this, I knew that some

832
00:47:11,640 --> 00:47:14,560
Speaker 1: places would let you do weight and then some other

833
00:47:14,680 --> 00:47:19,000
Speaker 1: places would say no, it is entirely on how you

834
00:47:19,080 --> 00:47:20,960
Speaker 1: whittle the block. Yeah.

835
00:47:21,040 --> 00:47:25,000
Speaker 2: It does say here in Scout Life magazine that you

836
00:47:25,120 --> 00:47:29,280
Speaker 2: can also use fishing weights or coins to additional weight too, Okay,

837
00:47:29,400 --> 00:47:32,560
Speaker 2: so I hear that's the official it's a dot org ben,

838
00:47:32,840 --> 00:47:37,040
Speaker 2: it's a dot org okay, hot org. It's gotta be legit. Yeah,

839
00:47:37,239 --> 00:47:39,399
Speaker 2: it'll just give those to anybody. You gotta be an org.

840
00:47:39,920 --> 00:47:45,920
Speaker 1: The world record for pumpkin chucking stands at uh I

841
00:47:45,960 --> 00:47:50,400
Speaker 1: think five thousand, five hundred and forty five zero point

842
00:47:50,440 --> 00:47:52,920
Speaker 1: four to three feet. So for the rest of the world,

843
00:47:53,160 --> 00:47:57,160
Speaker 1: for everybody, is that Yeah, everybody outside of the US

844
00:47:57,280 --> 00:48:00,120
Speaker 1: and Namibia. I think that's one thousand and six one

845
00:48:00,160 --> 00:48:03,200
Speaker 1: hundred and ninety and a quarter meters.

846
00:48:03,480 --> 00:48:06,080
Speaker 2: And that's hot takeaway, hot take from you here. What's

847
00:48:06,120 --> 00:48:08,840
Speaker 2: your perspective, what's your opinion on the metric system for

848
00:48:08,960 --> 00:48:13,319
Speaker 2: it or against it? Oh? For it? Yes? What are we?

849
00:48:13,520 --> 00:48:15,759
Speaker 2: What are we on about here in America? I don't

850
00:48:15,800 --> 00:48:17,360
Speaker 2: get it. It doesn't make sense.

851
00:48:17,320 --> 00:48:21,000
Speaker 1: Well yards in football, you know about the point though,

852
00:48:21,440 --> 00:48:22,880
Speaker 1: there's no rhyme or reason to it.

853
00:48:22,960 --> 00:48:25,480
Speaker 2: We just sort of use it as I don't know.

854
00:48:26,080 --> 00:48:28,760
Speaker 1: We should make up our own thing at this point,

855
00:48:29,160 --> 00:48:35,640
Speaker 1: Noel notches. There you go, Ben bounds, Matt Max. We

856
00:48:35,719 --> 00:48:37,399
Speaker 1: got to give max one max.

857
00:48:37,520 --> 00:48:41,520
Speaker 2: Well, a max could be a weight. It's like a stone,

858
00:48:41,680 --> 00:48:45,200
Speaker 2: you know, one max, I weigh fifteen max.

859
00:48:47,200 --> 00:48:50,160
Speaker 1: Max is nodding in approval. I know the weather's on

860
00:48:50,239 --> 00:48:50,719
Speaker 1: top of you.

861
00:48:50,840 --> 00:48:51,080
Speaker 2: Man.

862
00:48:51,320 --> 00:48:54,400
Speaker 1: Did you ever play Pinewood Derby or participated?

863
00:48:54,640 --> 00:48:54,839
Speaker 2: Oh?

864
00:48:54,920 --> 00:48:58,400
Speaker 3: God, so many? I think until recently my dad had

865
00:48:58,560 --> 00:49:02,920
Speaker 3: a Pinewood Derby trail in his attic. We yeah, no,

866
00:49:03,040 --> 00:49:06,319
Speaker 3: we were big, big proponents of it. But yeah, you

867
00:49:06,360 --> 00:49:08,319
Speaker 3: could put weight on it, but it had to weigh

868
00:49:08,320 --> 00:49:10,239
Speaker 3: a specific weight. And then I think, like, you know,

869
00:49:10,320 --> 00:49:12,080
Speaker 3: they roll it on the track thing, make sure it

870
00:49:12,160 --> 00:49:14,000
Speaker 3: had the correct clearance clearance exactly.

871
00:49:14,040 --> 00:49:18,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I remember, do you using quarters and hot glue?

872
00:49:18,400 --> 00:49:21,279
Speaker 2: But guys, do you think there's like anybody that has

873
00:49:21,320 --> 00:49:23,840
Speaker 2: like some sort of like secret like Dad's club or

874
00:49:23,880 --> 00:49:28,560
Speaker 2: whatever parents club where they bet on the Pinewood Derby.

875
00:49:28,760 --> 00:49:33,680
Speaker 2: If there's a thing be it, yes, and I imagine

876
00:49:33,680 --> 00:49:36,320
Speaker 2: we didn't talk about it. It probably could be an episode.

877
00:49:36,400 --> 00:49:39,200
Speaker 2: You know what we should do it? History of betting? Yeah,

878
00:49:39,360 --> 00:49:41,880
Speaker 2: a history of gambling. How have we not done? That's amazing.

879
00:49:41,920 --> 00:49:44,680
Speaker 2: We have come up with literally three rock solid ideas.

880
00:49:44,680 --> 00:49:48,919
Speaker 2: But yeah, I bet sports betting on Buskashi is a thing.

881
00:49:49,400 --> 00:49:54,440
Speaker 2: Oh you bet you bet? Yeah? All right, quid, I'll

882
00:49:54,440 --> 00:49:59,400
Speaker 2: bet you a quid. I'll bet you one nol knuckle

883
00:50:00,360 --> 00:50:00,920
Speaker 2: one Max.

884
00:50:01,480 --> 00:50:04,719
Speaker 1: All right, all right, all right, with that we have

885
00:50:05,120 --> 00:50:07,920
Speaker 1: we have some hot action, as they say on the strip.

886
00:50:09,719 --> 00:50:13,399
Speaker 1: So we are going to call it a day. Thank

887

Speaker 1: you so much for tuning in, folks. We cannot wait

888
00:50:17,520 --> 00:50:23,240

889
00:50:23,520 --> 00:50:26,560
Speaker 2: You gotta change the name of the show. Yeah, right,

890
00:50:26,880 --> 00:50:30,640
Speaker 2: slightly unusual history. There we go.

904
00:51:30,960 --> 00:51:35,000
Speaker 1: One odd sport we didn't put in toe wrestling?

905
00:51:35,200 --> 00:51:37,719
Speaker 2: Do you know that's the thing. Yeah, I don't know, man,

906
00:51:37,719 --> 00:51:40,200
Speaker 2: that's a little inappropriate for that feels like something a

907
00:51:40,320 --> 00:51:43,440
Speaker 2: creep made up, right exactly. It's like this is an

908
