Uh, 17 00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:21,680 Speaker 1: sort of one one little bit. Why why would I 18 00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:26,360 Speaker 1: think being an indoor person is? I don't think there's 19 00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:28,840 Speaker 1: anything wrong with being an indoor person. Yeah, I mean 20 00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:31,880 Speaker 1: I agree. I actually I do love the outdoors. But 21 00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:34,679 Speaker 1: I agree with you on a lot of your points 22 00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:38,119 Speaker 1: that you make on your podcast, the primary thing being 23 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:42,560 Speaker 1: that plumbing is an incredible invention that I love, and 24 00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 1: clean water I can't get enough of it. Clean water 25 00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:49,880 Speaker 1: is amazing. Yeah, not having to filter your water look 26 00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:55,440 Speaker 1: for worms in it. Yeah, it's I have been backpacking before, 27 00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 1: and while I enjoyed certain aspects to it, the lack 28 00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:04,880 Speaker 1: of plumbing um. Also, like, so when you go to 29 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:07,840 Speaker 1: kind of high altitudes, you have to peel a lot 30 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:13,239 Speaker 1: because like it's um more stress on your kidneys. And 31 00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 1: so I would go have to go pee, like in 32 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:17,640 Speaker 1: the middle of the night a bunch of times, and 33 00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:22,120 Speaker 1: I would go and then like find a little private place, um, 34 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:25,280 Speaker 1: and humans wouldn't bother me. But animals don't realize that, 35 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 1: like this is your private time. And so I would 36 00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:30,519 Speaker 1: have like mice or marmots or something like come and 37 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:32,320 Speaker 1: join me while I'm trying to pee in the middle 38 00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:34,760 Speaker 1: of the night. And I gotta say, as much as 39 00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:38,839 Speaker 1: I love animals, maybe not in that context. I'm sure 40 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:41,080 Speaker 1: the animals were judging you and they're like, wow, she's 41 00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 1: just so pretty traditional. She's right exactly. Yeah, Yeah, it's 42 00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:52,040 Speaker 1: I think I did make a decision that when I 43 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 1: had like a mouse run over my foot while I 44 00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:58,240 Speaker 1: was trying to pee, Like, you know what if I 45 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:01,519 Speaker 1: if I go camping again, I want there to be 46 00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:04,920 Speaker 1: like some kind of bathroom facility. Yeah, I want that 47 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:07,720 Speaker 1: for you. I want to you. I thought I thought 48 00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 1: people had to peel a lot in the mountains because 49 00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:13,239 Speaker 1: because they're because from the drinking. Yeah you have to 50 00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:17,880 Speaker 1: you have Oh you mean like drinking alcohol or drinking water, Yeah, yes, 51 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:21,240 Speaker 1: but out from alcohol. Ah yeah, no, I I if 52 00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 1: I I absolutely cannot drink alcohol when I'm like hiking 53 00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:27,639 Speaker 1: in high altitudes because then it would be the hike 54 00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:31,519 Speaker 1: would be one bathroom related So we can't have that. 55 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:37,280 Speaker 1: But majestic and the waterfalls like the glacier drip is 56 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:41,000 Speaker 1: your bidet right exactly? Yeah, I mean, if if all, 57 00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:44,440 Speaker 1: if all the hike was sort of bid at base, 58 00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 1: then maybe I could enjoy a beer in the great outdoors. 59 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 1: But until then, no, Um, but enough about me and 60 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:56,520 Speaker 1: going to the bathroom, which uh, normally my podcast is 61 00:03:56,560 --> 00:04:01,160 Speaker 1: not about that, So don't worry folks. Um, you you're 62 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:03,680 Speaker 1: not so much of an outdoor person, but you are 63 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:07,400 Speaker 1: forcing yourself to learn more about the outdoors. And I 64 00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 1: think a lot of people can relate to that, especially 65 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:14,400 Speaker 1: when it comes to insects and God forbid spiders. What 66 00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:22,880 Speaker 1: are your feelings towards spiders? M tepid. I would say 67 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:28,640 Speaker 1: spiders are Uh, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. 68 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:31,880 Speaker 1: Is how I look at spiders, I don't I don't 69 00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:35,040 Speaker 1: mess with them, I don't touch them. If I see them, 70 00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:36,920 Speaker 1: I'm sure there's a very good reason that they're there, 71 00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 1: and we just look the other way and have a 72 00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:43,000 Speaker 1: have ah an armistice with each other. Right, you have 73 00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:47,560 Speaker 1: a cordial but chilly relationship. So yeah, I like that. That. 74 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:51,919 Speaker 1: So your enemy is generally insects, and since spiders do 75 00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:55,599 Speaker 1: eat insects, they are you form kind of an alliance, 76 00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:58,919 Speaker 1: like a lazy fair kind of you let them be 77 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:05,680 Speaker 1: and hopefully they let you be. Hopefully we do. I 78 00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:09,760 Speaker 1: live in Texas. We do have poisonous spiders like poisonous 79 00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:12,160 Speaker 1: to humans like them. What do you have Do you 80 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:16,160 Speaker 1: have brown widows? Uh? We do. We have the brown recluse, 81 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:19,400 Speaker 1: brown recluse. Yeah, that's right, brown widow. Do you have 82 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:27,240 Speaker 1: black widows as well? I mean it's Texas probably. Fortunately, 83 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:31,279 Speaker 1: venomous spiders tend to be pretty shy, like they don't 84 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:33,120 Speaker 1: really want to bite you. They don't really want to 85 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:36,200 Speaker 1: interact with you. They just want to go about their business, 86 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:39,880 Speaker 1: eat lots of bugs, have lots of babies, and on 87 00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:43,320 Speaker 1: occasion be in your shoes. But other than that, you know, 88 00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:51,159 Speaker 1: they're they're fine, they're chill. You're a You're a worthy ambassador, right, 89 00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:55,839 Speaker 1: I like, I'm very good at pr for spiders. I 90 00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:58,280 Speaker 1: I do. Actually, there are certain spiders that I like. 91 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:03,120 Speaker 1: So of course I don't love the venomous spiders just 92 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:06,120 Speaker 1: because you know, I don't want to, you know, get 93 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:11,160 Speaker 1: necrosis or something. Um. But I do really like jumping spiders. 94 00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:15,120 Speaker 1: They to me are cute. So have you ever seen 95 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 1: a jumping spider's cute little face? I have, and it 96 00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:23,000 Speaker 1: was not cute. It was face to face with a 97 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:26,520 Speaker 1: jumping spider and a blind because I'm learning, I'm in 98 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:29,360 Speaker 1: season two production for Fogo right now. This season, I'm 99 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:31,320 Speaker 1: trying to figure out how to become a hunter. So 100 00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:36,360 Speaker 1: I spent hours and a blind with a jumping spider, 101 00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:42,000 Speaker 1: hours together with this jump in spider. It was not cute, 102 00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:45,840 Speaker 1: not the spider, the spider did not feel good about it. 103 00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 1: I did not feel good about it. It's a bit 104 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:52,520 Speaker 1: awkward then between you two. But you know to me, 105 00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:57,120 Speaker 1: like they got those big adorable eyes though, and they're fluffy, 106 00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:01,800 Speaker 1: So tell what is the finding? Like, what is the 107 00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:05,640 Speaker 1: difference between a puppy and a jumping spider? Fluffy and 108 00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:09,040 Speaker 1: big eyes? Like? What is it? The number of legs? 109 00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:12,520 Speaker 1: Like what? I think it's it's the stance. You know 110 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:16,720 Speaker 1: that the jumping spider always looks poised to like mess 111 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:22,320 Speaker 1: you up, I guess, although you know that sometimes puppies 112 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:26,000 Speaker 1: are poised as well to get on you and show 113 00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 1: everything that you have and own. Uh, But personally I 114 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:36,480 Speaker 1: find jumping spiders cute. Your your mileage might vary. Some 115 00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:41,120 Speaker 1: people don't find them so cute, but they are really interesting. 116 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:44,640 Speaker 1: They are a fascinating spider and they are the world's 117 00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:48,960 Speaker 1: most visual spiders. So visual as in they actually use 118 00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:52,760 Speaker 1: their vision in a way that most spiders do not. 119 00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:57,960 Speaker 1: So they actually are the only spiders that can track 120 00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:01,440 Speaker 1: your movement just by moveing their eyes and not their 121 00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:04,280 Speaker 1: whole bodies. Well that's exactly what the spider was doing 122 00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:07,680 Speaker 1: to be the entire time. What was it collecting what 123 00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:11,800 Speaker 1: information where they using their eyes for well, they they 124 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:15,800 Speaker 1: do hunt, so they use their vision to hunt. They 125 00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:20,000 Speaker 1: also use their vision in selecting a mate. So there 126 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:23,800 Speaker 1: are a lot of jumping spiders that are really beautiful. 127 00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:29,600 Speaker 1: So like peacock jumping spiders, they have these fantastic displays 128 00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:32,400 Speaker 1: of color, and they do these little dances. They wiggle 129 00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:36,960 Speaker 1: their butts, they waved their arms. Uh. To me, it's 130 00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:40,439 Speaker 1: it's the cutest rave in the world. Um. But they 131 00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:42,760 Speaker 1: need to be able to see this in order to 132 00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:46,360 Speaker 1: appreciate it and select a mate based on these dances. 133 00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 1: So you're saying I should be flattered by the attention. Yes. 134 00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 1: So they have four pairs of eyes, uh, with which 135 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:02,200 Speaker 1: they can see move, vivid color. They can see in 136 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:07,600 Speaker 1: higher resolution than most animals, including humans. So those big 137 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:11,640 Speaker 1: cute dew we eyes that I've described that for some 138 00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:14,600 Speaker 1: reason you don't find so cute, Uh, those are actually 139 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 1: the principle eyes. Uh. These eyes can see color and resolution, 140 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 1: and they can move their retina's around to track something 141 00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:26,480 Speaker 1: that they're looking at. So there are other eyes are 142 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:29,760 Speaker 1: more like other spiders eyes, they can't move. They mostly 143 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:33,520 Speaker 1: specialize in detecting movement, especially in the periphery. But with 144 00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:38,600 Speaker 1: these principle eyes, they can see really well and they 145 00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:43,000 Speaker 1: have this very acute visual system. This is what's really 146 00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:46,439 Speaker 1: interesting is there is some new research about these spiders 147 00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:48,920 Speaker 1: and the question is, well, if they can see right, 148 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:52,360 Speaker 1: if they if vision is really important to them, Like 149 00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:55,120 Speaker 1: how do they think? Do they think in images? Like 150 00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:59,360 Speaker 1: do they dream in images? There is actually some recent 151 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:06,720 Speaker 1: evidence that jumping spiders may be able to have visual dreams, dreams, 152 00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:10,080 Speaker 1: like like what do we think that they are, Like 153 00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:12,240 Speaker 1: like they're just like tripping on mushrooms the entire time 154 00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:14,120 Speaker 1: or do you mean they're like one day I'm going 155 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:16,560 Speaker 1: to be as big as this like hunter I'm looking 156 00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:19,679 Speaker 1: at right now one day. One day I'm going to 157 00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:26,800 Speaker 1: have my own podcast like Dreams Spider Aspirations. Yeah, I 158 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 1: mean like like when they sleep, Uh, it would be 159 00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 1: like when you when we have dreams, Like when we sleep, 160 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:37,480 Speaker 1: we have a bunch of like we can sometimes replay 161 00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:40,800 Speaker 1: the day, but sometimes we have sort of invented dreams. 162 00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:44,680 Speaker 1: Sort of we take an amalgamation of the information we've 163 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:47,120 Speaker 1: learned over our lives and like turn it into this 164 00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:51,040 Speaker 1: kind of you know, private film that we show ourselves 165 00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:55,560 Speaker 1: we're like processing our traumas and emotions. Is that what 166 00:10:55,640 --> 00:11:01,440 Speaker 1: the spiders do? They're like processing main traumas. Spiders Like 167 00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:04,360 Speaker 1: one day I was like sitting here and then I 168 00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:07,640 Speaker 1: saw this lady and I want to be friends with her, 169 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:10,240 Speaker 1: but she didn't want to be friends with me, and 170 00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:12,680 Speaker 1: I was very sad, and so I had a dream 171 00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:17,559 Speaker 1: where we were friends. So and then then she picked 172 00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:19,800 Speaker 1: me up and I became her, and she became me, 173 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:24,480 Speaker 1: and we became one. And who knows where her legs 174 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:27,160 Speaker 1: and my legs and my legs and my legs ended 175 00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:33,720 Speaker 1: in began? Uh the dj TSO track like swells is 176 00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:40,040 Speaker 1: this love? So we don't know exactly what a spider 177 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:43,679 Speaker 1: would dream, but there is evidence that they do dreams. 178 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:47,800 Speaker 1: So this evidence actually the research came about in a 179 00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:53,480 Speaker 1: pretty cute manner. Daniella Russler is an ecologist at the 180 00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 1: University of Constants in Germany, and she noticed that when 181 00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:02,160 Speaker 1: jumping spiders sleep, they twitch their little legs like dogs 182 00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:04,040 Speaker 1: and cats do. And they're sleep, you know how, like 183 00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:07,040 Speaker 1: your dog or your cat might start to like move 184 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:09,160 Speaker 1: their little legs a little bit, twitch a little bit 185 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:13,360 Speaker 1: as they're maybe dreaming about running or jumping or having 186 00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:16,600 Speaker 1: their dream come true of catching a car. And like, 187 00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 1: sometimes I wonder if my dog just dreams that she's 188 00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:22,480 Speaker 1: really big because she's a little dog, and so it's 189 00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:25,800 Speaker 1: like that she's maybe she's dreaming. She's just huge, and 190 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:29,920 Speaker 1: like she's like, I'm I'm the human now, I say, 191 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:35,240 Speaker 1: when I have dog food, look at me, look at me. 192 00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:38,200 Speaker 1: I'm the human now. Yeah, yeah, I am the one. 193 00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:44,679 Speaker 1: Yes of the captain. I'm the captain now. Yeah. So 194 00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:47,120 Speaker 1: they twitched in their sleeping so this research, I was like, 195 00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:50,360 Speaker 1: I wonder if they're dreaming. And so she set up 196 00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:54,080 Speaker 1: a baby spider nursery sleep lab in her home, as 197 00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:59,200 Speaker 1: one does, and basically a bunch of had a bunch 198 00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:02,520 Speaker 1: of baby spy fiers hanging from a thread, curled up 199 00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:07,280 Speaker 1: in sleeping position that she's studied. Wow. The reason she 200 00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:11,240 Speaker 1: used baby spiders is their heads are transparent, so you 201 00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:16,119 Speaker 1: can visually measure the movement of the spider's retina's so spiders, 202 00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:22,600 Speaker 1: that's disgusting. That's so gross. Uh, it's only like Peter 203 00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:26,160 Speaker 1: Parker had like since he I mean he's a kid, right, 204 00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:29,200 Speaker 1: he's like a teenager. If he had really gotten the 205 00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:31,600 Speaker 1: spider DNA. I guess he would have been more like 206 00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:34,000 Speaker 1: see through, like you could kind of see his blood 207 00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:36,719 Speaker 1: vessels and some of his organs. That that would have 208 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:41,480 Speaker 1: been fun. You just like I think he just entered 209 00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:46,040 Speaker 1: into like a rachnid teendom, right, which is brutal, Which 210 00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:50,640 Speaker 1: is brutal way to enter your aragnid life. Yeah. So 211 00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:55,960 Speaker 1: this researcher found that these tiny baby jumping spiders actually 212 00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:59,840 Speaker 1: demonstrate rim sleep ari e m sleep, which is rapid 213 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:03,560 Speaker 1: eye movement which until recently has only been thought to 214 00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:07,120 Speaker 1: be characteristic of vertebrates. So this is the first invertebrate 215 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:12,679 Speaker 1: who may demonstrate rim sleep, which is really interesting. Arachnas 216 00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:16,280 Speaker 1: they're just like us, yeah, I mean, so they're to 217 00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:19,320 Speaker 1: clarify with their eyes, they don't like when we move 218 00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:22,000 Speaker 1: our eyes, our whole eyes kind of move in our sockets. 219 00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:24,360 Speaker 1: So you're not gonna see like you're not gonna look 220 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:26,440 Speaker 1: at one of these spider's face and see their eyeballs 221 00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:29,120 Speaker 1: like moving around in their sockets. But the back of 222 00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:33,440 Speaker 1: their eyes, their retinas move and rotate, and so you 223 00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:36,320 Speaker 1: can see that with like a flashlight when you study them, 224 00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:39,600 Speaker 1: but you're not necessarily going to see them moving their 225 00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:42,080 Speaker 1: eyes towards you, for for better or for worse. I 226 00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:45,160 Speaker 1: guess that might maybe that's a comfort for some people 227 00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:48,640 Speaker 1: that they're not gonna suddenly see a spider side eyeing them. 228 00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:51,680 Speaker 1: But like, so their retinas are separate from their arrest 229 00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:55,880 Speaker 1: of their eyes. Their retina's um. It's kind of like 230 00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:59,840 Speaker 1: like if you hold a rubber band um and then 231 00:14:59,840 --> 00:15:02,680 Speaker 1: you like hold it firm with one hand and then 232 00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:05,160 Speaker 1: like you can move the back of it with one hand. 233 00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:07,880 Speaker 1: That's kind of like how it works. So like muscles 234 00:15:07,920 --> 00:15:11,680 Speaker 1: can pull the back of their eye and move it. Uh. 235 00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:16,640 Speaker 1: Does that make sense? I guess I was about to 236 00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:19,000 Speaker 1: be like, oh, that's like weird, but now I realize 237 00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:21,800 Speaker 1: that I have no idea how my eye works, Like 238 00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:25,720 Speaker 1: I don't know if my retina is the same at all. Well, 239 00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:28,440 Speaker 1: our retina and our are the rest of our eye 240 00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:33,600 Speaker 1: moves sort of um together in unison and it rotates 241 00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:37,680 Speaker 1: around in our eye socket. Uh. And there are muscles 242 00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:42,360 Speaker 1: that line so like um wrap around the eye. By 243 00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:46,040 Speaker 1: sort of tensing these muscles, the whole eye moves. Uh. 244 00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:48,560 Speaker 1: And like it's it's not you know, like we can't 245 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:51,280 Speaker 1: move our eyes three D sixty degrees and just spin 246 00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:54,560 Speaker 1: them around freely, because that's the muscles can only move 247 00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:56,720 Speaker 1: them so much like side to side, up, down, you 248 00:15:56,760 --> 00:16:00,360 Speaker 1: know so much. Um. And so for these spiders, those 249 00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:03,800 Speaker 1: muscles are just located at the back of their eye 250 00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:07,480 Speaker 1: and sort of move around, uh their retina, whereas the 251 00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:12,760 Speaker 1: the actual eyeball itself is remaining uh still unstable. But 252 00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:15,320 Speaker 1: it's like you know, it's not their eyes are kind 253 00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:19,840 Speaker 1: of wiggily. They can they have some give there, you 254 00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:25,400 Speaker 1: see why, you see why this is really unsettling. Um, Yes, 255 00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:30,320 Speaker 1: of course I see why that it would be unsettling 256 00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:35,760 Speaker 1: to a normal person. Yes, but yees, so they will 257 00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:39,640 Speaker 1: have u this rapid eye movement that you can see 258 00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:42,840 Speaker 1: with these with these little baby spiders that you use 259 00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:45,800 Speaker 1: a flashlight to see right through them. And they would 260 00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:49,160 Speaker 1: also twitch like a little which I think is cute 261 00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:53,320 Speaker 1: maybe like to someone a twitching dreaming spider is menacing, 262 00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:56,080 Speaker 1: but like their little legs like twitching like a puppy. 263 00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:59,760 Speaker 1: And so what do they dream about? One can only 264 00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:03,960 Speaker 1: get us. Uh, they are hoping to continue to investigate 265 00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:06,720 Speaker 1: the extent to which the jumping spiders dream, but we 266 00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:10,800 Speaker 1: don't know what they are dreaming. About world domination. Maybe 267 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:16,920 Speaker 1: just like a like a just flying because they can't 268 00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:18,520 Speaker 1: really fly, right, they can just kind of jump, but 269 00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:22,320 Speaker 1: they have flying dreams when they're I'm not certain about 270 00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:25,040 Speaker 1: jumping spiders, but for a lot of spiders when they 271 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:29,600 Speaker 1: are very small, like baby spiderlings, they actually do take 272 00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:33,760 Speaker 1: to the sky because they release like a strand of 273 00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:36,760 Speaker 1: webbing that they use as sort of like a parachute, 274 00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:40,360 Speaker 1: and they're so small that the wind just like carries 275 00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:44,040 Speaker 1: them away and so they fly. This is how they disperse. Yeah, 276 00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:47,119 Speaker 1: I think jumping spiders do also do. This behavior is 277 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:51,320 Speaker 1: called ballooning. Uh So maybe maybe you're right, maybe they 278 00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:57,639 Speaker 1: do dream about flying, uh fond dreams of flying in 279 00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:00,280 Speaker 1: their in their babyhood. It's just like remember or that 280 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:03,240 Speaker 1: feeling that freedom. And they see birds in the sky. 281 00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:06,719 Speaker 1: They see these like insects that fly and then they 282 00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:09,240 Speaker 1: get tangled in their webs and they're just like crunching 283 00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:11,399 Speaker 1: out and they're just like eating them. They're like, maybe 284 00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:13,600 Speaker 1: if I eat them all get the ability to fly, 285 00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:17,399 Speaker 1: and then they dream about it. Yeah, yeah, it could be. 286 00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:20,119 Speaker 1: I mean I would imagine they probably dream about things 287 00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:25,280 Speaker 1: like like seeing seeing food, eating it, um and maybe 288 00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:28,679 Speaker 1: or maybe like seeing a mate, you know, standard stuff, 289 00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:34,159 Speaker 1: standard spider stuff, or taking sexy spider dreams, sexy sexy 290 00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:38,560 Speaker 1: spider dreams, sexy spider dreams, seeing dreaming of a male 291 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:43,320 Speaker 1: waggling its abdomen and waving its arms, and then just 292 00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:45,000 Speaker 1: like when it's about to get to the good part, 293 00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:48,919 Speaker 1: like something lands in the net. Yeah. Yeah, it's always 294 00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:51,240 Speaker 1: the way, isn't it when you find the sexy spider 295 00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:53,520 Speaker 1: man of your dreams, like in your dream and then 296 00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:59,960 Speaker 1: your alarm goes off. M HM's exactly how it goes. Well, 297 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:03,159 Speaker 1: and we come back, we're going to talk more about spiders. 298 00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:07,000 Speaker 1: Uh this time, the mating is not a dream, and 299 00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:11,760 Speaker 1: it also ends a little bit in a nightmare. It's 300 00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:24,520 Speaker 1: a nightmare. So uh so, spider males have a classic problem, 301 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:27,560 Speaker 1: which is how do you mate without getting eaten by 302 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:30,960 Speaker 1: your much larger partner? You know what? You know how 303 00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:35,040 Speaker 1: that is? Yeah? I do. As a human woman, I 304 00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:39,080 Speaker 1: do know. How do you find a connection without being cannibalized? 305 00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:42,720 Speaker 1: That's that's every woman on a dating apps dilemma? And 306 00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:47,000 Speaker 1: I suddenly find spiders extremely related. I don't know if 307 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:51,119 Speaker 1: that's a win for feminism. Actually, where the females are 308 00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:53,600 Speaker 1: larger and the ones that eat the males, Like, is 309 00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:56,399 Speaker 1: that a win for feminism or is that like a 310 00:19:56,480 --> 00:20:00,520 Speaker 1: loss because it's about equality. I don't know. Hashtag the 311 00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:03,400 Speaker 1: bay it's lost. I think we're I think if we're 312 00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:06,760 Speaker 1: just if we're just gonna, you know, rebuild a structures 313 00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:12,960 Speaker 1: of oppression. Yeah, that's what was the point. Spiders like, 314 00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:17,040 Speaker 1: we want equality. We don't want to eat men. I guess, 315 00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:21,600 Speaker 1: all right, want them to help build our webs and 316 00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:26,920 Speaker 1: help them raise our children. Well, they hackled orb weaver 317 00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:32,160 Speaker 1: species Filiponola prominence is one of these spiders in which 318 00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:35,800 Speaker 1: the males do have to worry about the female eating them. 319 00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:40,000 Speaker 1: The hackled or weaver female has a large, round abdomen 320 00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:44,040 Speaker 1: with these kind of bumpy protrusions, whereas the male is 321 00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:48,639 Speaker 1: less than half her size and much scrawnier, and so 322 00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:53,000 Speaker 1: would be a relatively easy snack for the female after copulation. 323 00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:57,040 Speaker 1: I mean, it's nothing personal. It's just like get hungry 324 00:20:57,080 --> 00:20:59,840 Speaker 1: after that kind of thing. Yeah, it's extra, it's cardio, 325 00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:02,720 Speaker 1: it's exercise, you know, a lot of stress, and then 326 00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:05,240 Speaker 1: like it's awkward to like once you're done. So it's 327 00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:08,600 Speaker 1: like it's a win win, you eat. You know, it's like, hey, 328 00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:11,920 Speaker 1: the awkwardness over. There's no question of like do I leave, 329 00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:14,440 Speaker 1: do I say we get some uber eats over? And 330 00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:18,040 Speaker 1: do I just eat you? Yeah? Uh. So the male 331 00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:21,280 Speaker 1: is not so into this, would much prefer only to 332 00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:24,679 Speaker 1: please his partner's sexual appetite and not her you know, 333 00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:29,480 Speaker 1: hunger appetite for his little body, so he will uh 334 00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:33,520 Speaker 1: try to escape the female and this hackled or weaver 335 00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:38,800 Speaker 1: spider has a fantastic method of escape, which is catapulting 336 00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:42,600 Speaker 1: himself off of her after the mating deed has been done. 337 00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:46,080 Speaker 1: So when you look at a video of when you 338 00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:49,240 Speaker 1: look at this in real life, it actually looks like 339 00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:54,800 Speaker 1: the male teleports away from the female um, but when 340 00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:57,840 Speaker 1: you look at it in slow motion, you can see 341 00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:01,399 Speaker 1: he's pushing off of her and just like being like 342 00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:05,880 Speaker 1: all right, well that's done, sia, and just flinging himself 343 00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:10,199 Speaker 1: away like she's like was this something I said? No, 344 00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 1: I didn't mean you were a snack in that way. Yeah. 345 00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:19,320 Speaker 1: So they use their front legs to push off the female, 346 00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:24,000 Speaker 1: eating themselves away in the nick of time, and males 347 00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:27,640 Speaker 1: that did not use the strategy or who weren't fast enough, 348 00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:32,439 Speaker 1: researchers found were typically consumed by the female, so it 349 00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:37,960 Speaker 1: is a very important survival technique for these males. And 350 00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:42,280 Speaker 1: the way they're able to fling themselves off so quickly 351 00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:46,320 Speaker 1: is that the joints in their front legs so the 352 00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:50,440 Speaker 1: legs are folded against the females abdomen during mating, and 353 00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:54,320 Speaker 1: once they're done, the male squeezes hemo lymph, which is 354 00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:59,720 Speaker 1: basically spider blood through the leg really quickly, using hydraulics 355 00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:04,000 Speaker 1: to quickly unfold the leg as uh, and then it 356 00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:07,800 Speaker 1: acts as this spring and just jettisons the male off 357 00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:13,280 Speaker 1: of the female. Oh wow, and there are there. That's 358 00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:15,439 Speaker 1: that's a good system. That's a very different system than 359 00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:18,360 Speaker 1: what we do with our blood. Yeah, we don't so 360 00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:23,080 Speaker 1: much like squish our blood around to move, but spiders do. 361 00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:26,200 Speaker 1: They're kind of hot hydraulic based movement with their legs 362 00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:32,800 Speaker 1: and they're like and I live to copulate another day za. 363 00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:36,439 Speaker 1: And they're also it is truly sort of like a 364 00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:39,720 Speaker 1: robin Hood esque movement because they're attached to a thread 365 00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:43,280 Speaker 1: of silk that uh, they trailed behind them, So when 366 00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:46,480 Speaker 1: they launched themselves away, they swing on their silk out 367 00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:49,080 Speaker 1: of her clutches to safety. So it really is like 368 00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:54,080 Speaker 1: the little robin Hood spiders of mating, uh, mating from 369 00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:59,040 Speaker 1: the females and then uh and then just like uh 370 00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:02,439 Speaker 1: youing sent away and jump it away. How do you 371 00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:06,199 Speaker 1: how do you practice safe spider sex? First you need 372 00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:09,120 Speaker 1: to anchor yourself with a silk thread to a safe location. 373 00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:15,360 Speaker 1: You study the stunts of classical actor Errol flynn Um 374 00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:18,600 Speaker 1: and this is how you you know, this is how 375 00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:22,440 Speaker 1: you practice responsible save spider sex. Man, these little it's 376 00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:26,760 Speaker 1: just these little Tom Cruise spiders. I respect it, you know, 377 00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:31,120 Speaker 1: like is it maybe it's is it a little disrespectful? Yes, 378 00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:35,800 Speaker 1: But you know, on the other hand, I appreciate the stunts. 379 00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:38,720 Speaker 1: Like you know, if if you have a one night 380 00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:42,000 Speaker 1: stand and someone you know, your partner just leaves, that's 381 00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:44,479 Speaker 1: kind of sucky. But like if you have a one 382 00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:46,760 Speaker 1: night stand in your partner does like a does a 383 00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:51,640 Speaker 1: back flip out of your apartment, that's cool. I mean, 384 00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:54,240 Speaker 1: can we got like, can we call the mission impossible spiders? 385 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:56,399 Speaker 1: Because if we call them Tom Cruise spiders, and it 386 00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:58,840 Speaker 1: would actually be the female spider that would have to 387 00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:04,840 Speaker 1: hatch a extreme only detailed plan to a skipe is true. 388 00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:07,760 Speaker 1: That is true. In that case, it is acceptable to 389 00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:10,400 Speaker 1: eat the Tom Cruise spider, I believe, And what other 390 00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:15,080 Speaker 1: choice do you have? I know exactly. This is not 391 00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:17,639 Speaker 1: This is legally speaking, this is not a threat. We 392 00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:20,479 Speaker 1: are not going to cannibalize Tom Cruise. We're just saying 393 00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:24,520 Speaker 1: he's not a great person, so like I guess, he 394 00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:27,160 Speaker 1: wouldn't taste very good. We're just saying, we're just saying 395 00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:33,720 Speaker 1: that relationships are complicated. Exactly. Thank you, my my legal team, 396 00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:39,520 Speaker 1: thanks you. So Onto another spider who uses physics to 397 00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:46,480 Speaker 1: achieve amazing stunts. The genus Hiptiatis is a small, brown, 398 00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:49,359 Speaker 1: fuzzy spider I think kind of cute because they have 399 00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:53,240 Speaker 1: such a round abdomen. They're just like real, real chunksters, 400 00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:57,639 Speaker 1: and they use physics to catch prey. They're called the 401 00:25:57,720 --> 00:26:02,359 Speaker 1: triangle weaver spider, and they're called the triangle weaver because 402 00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:06,600 Speaker 1: they weave triangle shaped webs and it seems like a 403 00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:09,960 Speaker 1: really odd web shape until you find out what they 404 00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:14,480 Speaker 1: do with them. So they position themselves at the tip 405 00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:18,440 Speaker 1: of the triangle and anchor themselves to like a branch, 406 00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:22,120 Speaker 1: and they loaded like a sling shot where they are 407 00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:27,320 Speaker 1: basically the projectile. Uh So when they spot prey like 408 00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:30,480 Speaker 1: prey lands in their web or near their web, they 409 00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:34,960 Speaker 1: will launch themselves and the web towards it. Uh. It 410 00:26:35,119 --> 00:26:39,600 Speaker 1: is so effective that they can accelerate over twenty times 411 00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:44,560 Speaker 1: the acceleration of a space shuttle, over twenty times the 412 00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:48,480 Speaker 1: acceleration of a space shuttle of a space shuttle. Yes, 413 00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:52,359 Speaker 1: oh my god. Yeah, My question is why aren't we 414 00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:58,280 Speaker 1: Why aren't we deputizing these spiders to be astronauts. Why 415 00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:02,359 Speaker 1: aren't we sling shotting our astronauts into space? Is it? 416 00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:08,160 Speaker 1: Why can't we sling shot bezos? Yeah? I mean right 417 00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:14,480 Speaker 1: into the sun actually, but just yeah, I mean, you know, 418 00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:18,359 Speaker 1: it is a question. I do sometimes wonder if, like 419 00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:22,840 Speaker 1: any of the astrophysicists have thought about using a giant 420 00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:27,439 Speaker 1: sling shot. I think it's you know, maybe maybe that 421 00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:29,600 Speaker 1: would work, you know what I mean, just like, get 422 00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:32,840 Speaker 1: a lot of a huge rubber band, get a lot 423 00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:35,600 Speaker 1: of people to pull it back, and that way we're 424 00:27:35,640 --> 00:27:41,680 Speaker 1: not using fuel, right hopefully. Yeah, I'm sure they thought 425 00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:44,840 Speaker 1: about this. I'm sure they have. There's probably some problem 426 00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:48,639 Speaker 1: with a giant rubber band shooting a rocket into space, 427 00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:52,159 Speaker 1: But honestly, I can't think of one. I mean, what 428 00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:55,400 Speaker 1: if we take the example of this spider, right, what's 429 00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:58,679 Speaker 1: the scale? Is the spider just like the size of 430 00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:02,440 Speaker 1: a person on a football field, or would the slingshot 431 00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:05,240 Speaker 1: have to be like as big as like I don't know, 432 00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:08,439 Speaker 1: the Empire State building or something or Liefel Tower to 433 00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:12,360 Speaker 1: actually like get a human sized person in proportion to spider, 434 00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:15,920 Speaker 1: I mean out into space into space. Like, so this 435 00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:21,080 Speaker 1: spider does not go space distances to get a human 436 00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:25,320 Speaker 1: into space using sort of a spider web that's scaled 437 00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:29,440 Speaker 1: up to human. Um. I can totally do the math 438 00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:33,760 Speaker 1: of that in my head absolutely, Uh, going into states 439 00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:36,800 Speaker 1: like with that acceleration, I mean, how far are they going? 440 00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:41,920 Speaker 1: The spiders aren't going that far, but they're accelerating extremely quickly, 441 00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:46,560 Speaker 1: so you can see like it looks like they're teleporting, 442 00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:49,640 Speaker 1: Like they just kind of go from one end of 443 00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:54,240 Speaker 1: their web suddenly they've like teleported three inches teleported another inch, 444 00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:57,479 Speaker 1: So they are it's just like it happens in the 445 00:28:57,520 --> 00:29:00,680 Speaker 1: blink of an eye, and they'll do it multi full times, 446 00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:05,200 Speaker 1: so like um, kind of pause uh and then slingshot 447 00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:08,200 Speaker 1: themselves again. Pause, reloads sling shot themselves again as they 448 00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:12,080 Speaker 1: get closer and closer to this prey, and it's it's 449 00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:16,560 Speaker 1: kind of from the praise perspective, from like this flies perspective, 450 00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:18,920 Speaker 1: it must be really creepy because it's like the spider 451 00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:22,520 Speaker 1: being one place and then suddenly it's like, you know, 452 00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:25,840 Speaker 1: three inches closer to you, suddenly another inch closer to you, 453 00:29:26,280 --> 00:29:29,320 Speaker 1: and it's moving so quickly. It's really hard to track 454 00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:32,880 Speaker 1: this spider with your with your vision. Oh my god, 455 00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:36,200 Speaker 1: this is terrifying. It there was a Doctor Who episode 456 00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:39,760 Speaker 1: about this with these like statues only move when your 457 00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:41,960 Speaker 1: eyes are closer. Every time you blink, they're just like 458 00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:45,680 Speaker 1: menacingly a menacing distance closer to you. This is even 459 00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:50,000 Speaker 1: if you don't blink, Honestly, it just keeps coming towards you. Yeah, 460 00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:53,160 Speaker 1: I mean it is absolutely a horror movie trope. Um. 461 00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:55,920 Speaker 1: It's like if you saw a sort of a monster 462 00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:58,200 Speaker 1: at the other end of a room and then like 463 00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:03,280 Speaker 1: it basically just moves really quickly and in the blink 464 00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:06,280 Speaker 1: of an eye is you know, like five ft closer 465 00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:10,680 Speaker 1: to you. And also you're trapped in its sticky web 466 00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:14,600 Speaker 1: and you're so doomed and about to have your insides 467 00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:17,880 Speaker 1: lico fide and sucked out of you. I'm sorry, where 468 00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:20,240 Speaker 1: were you trying to make spiders more relatable this episode? 469 00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:24,720 Speaker 1: I guess I kind of forgot about that. Yeah, I 470 00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:27,840 Speaker 1: think it's cool though, Actually, like, look at these little 471 00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:31,120 Speaker 1: guys like a real dinnis the Menace kind of kind 472 00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:34,320 Speaker 1: of dude, just like with its little sling shot past 473 00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:38,000 Speaker 1: during his neighbors, sucking the juices out of its victims, 474 00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:41,760 Speaker 1: you know, just like give us the menace? Yeah, you 475 00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:44,400 Speaker 1: boys will be boys, Boys will be boys. This is 476 00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:50,920 Speaker 1: probably a female actually, but yes, spiders will be spiderbiders 477 00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:55,320 Speaker 1: will be spiders exactly. That's a much less toxic phrase. 478 00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:58,600 Speaker 1: I feel like, you know, how toxic are they? How 479 00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:01,600 Speaker 1: toxic are they? I don't is it a less toxic phrase? 480 00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:04,959 Speaker 1: How toxic are these spiders? These ones? I don't think 481 00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:09,160 Speaker 1: they're very venomous in terms of humans. How do they kill? 482 00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:11,360 Speaker 1: How do they how do they kill their prey? Are 483 00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:15,160 Speaker 1: they like choking it? Are they injecting it out? Is 484 00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:18,560 Speaker 1: it a is it a you know, kick to the suplex? 485 00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:20,920 Speaker 1: How much does it suck to be a fly? You 486 00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:23,640 Speaker 1: spend your life like all you eat is like poop Yeah, 487 00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:28,360 Speaker 1: you have a crappy life, short crappy, and sometimes you 488 00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:32,640 Speaker 1: have a spider essentially teleport itself at you and bite 489 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:37,120 Speaker 1: you and juices. You end in a horror movie. You 490 00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:40,960 Speaker 1: live in a Dickinson novel. Right right, you're like poise, 491 00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:45,280 Speaker 1: So may I have some more um animal poop, just 492 00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:48,920 Speaker 1: you know, like little little h No, it's tiny Tim. 493 00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:51,960 Speaker 1: Isn't the one? What's the one who asks for more porridge? 494 00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:55,440 Speaker 1: I think that one is that want to tail a 495 00:31:55,480 --> 00:32:00,680 Speaker 1: two cities small Samuel, a little little little Orge. No, 496 00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:03,720 Speaker 1: I don't know it's it's is it is that David 497 00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:09,480 Speaker 1: Copperfield Oliver No, Oliver twist, Oliver twist wants more porridge? 498 00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:14,280 Speaker 1: So Oliver this Oliver twitch, Oliver twitch. Yeah, I mean 499 00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:17,400 Speaker 1: I guess that works for a spider. Oliver twitch, spider 500 00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:22,160 Speaker 1: asking for more porridge, but the porridge is specs um. 501 00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:25,200 Speaker 1: And then that's the fly, right. I can't believe. I 502 00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:27,360 Speaker 1: can't believe. We were trying, we were trying to make 503 00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:31,160 Speaker 1: spiders more relatable, and you actually made me have sympathy 504 00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:37,760 Speaker 1: for flies. Yeah that was also hate flies. Yeah, I 505 00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:40,760 Speaker 1: have to reclaim my hatred for flies and the disease 506 00:32:40,760 --> 00:32:43,200 Speaker 1: that they spread, and the oddslat that they bring to 507 00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:46,320 Speaker 1: every picnic I've ever held. Yeah, now that that that 508 00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:48,440 Speaker 1: was an accident. I was trying to do pr for 509 00:32:48,480 --> 00:32:52,400 Speaker 1: the spiders. Actually, you know what, the triangle weaver spider, 510 00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:56,320 Speaker 1: the one that we're talking about, does not have venom, 511 00:32:56,360 --> 00:33:01,600 Speaker 1: and that's actually probably why it uses it's uh it's 512 00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:06,280 Speaker 1: webbing in this manner in order to disable its prey. 513 00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:10,200 Speaker 1: And then basically it just kind of, I guess, just 514 00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:15,760 Speaker 1: just scares it to death, probably choose on it to death, 515 00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:22,080 Speaker 1: eats it to death, which, yeah, it just eats it 516 00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:26,080 Speaker 1: a lie, it eats it eats it. Yeah, I mean 517 00:33:26,120 --> 00:33:28,440 Speaker 1: at some point it probably does die from the eating. 518 00:33:28,680 --> 00:33:37,120 Speaker 1: But nature is brutal, brutal, harsh, but fair. Okay, maybe 519 00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:41,800 Speaker 1: it's not fair, it's just harsh. It's neutral, it's neutral. 520 00:33:41,840 --> 00:33:45,760 Speaker 1: When we get back, I will actually tell you a 521 00:33:45,800 --> 00:33:50,440 Speaker 1: story that I think makes spiders cute or maybe not, 522 00:33:51,040 --> 00:33:54,520 Speaker 1: maybe just makes plants more menacing. You be the judge 523 00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:59,840 Speaker 1: when we get back after a very quick break. So, 524 00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:04,120 Speaker 1: I feel like I have been remiss in my mission 525 00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:08,120 Speaker 1: to make spiders more relatable because we did have the 526 00:34:08,280 --> 00:34:13,960 Speaker 1: cute dreaming baby spiders and uh, which seemed to only 527 00:34:14,080 --> 00:34:17,479 Speaker 1: kind of unsettle you the fact that spiders, well, because 528 00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:20,840 Speaker 1: you told me that their heads were clear. Yeah, well 529 00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:25,359 Speaker 1: you know, semi translucent and if you shine a light 530 00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:28,120 Speaker 1: through you can see the back of their eyeballs. I'm 531 00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:30,520 Speaker 1: not sure I see what the problem is yet. And 532 00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:34,719 Speaker 1: then I talked about how some male spiders will catapult 533 00:34:34,760 --> 00:34:37,640 Speaker 1: themselves off the female so that they don't get eaten 534 00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:41,240 Speaker 1: after mating. Again, I feel like this is an awkward 535 00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:44,759 Speaker 1: situation that we can all relate to some kind of 536 00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:48,560 Speaker 1: scenario you'd find in seinfeld Er friends. That's true, that 537 00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:51,600 Speaker 1: was very relatable. It is. And then I talked about 538 00:34:51,640 --> 00:34:56,600 Speaker 1: how the triangle weaver spider will catapult itself towards its 539 00:34:56,680 --> 00:35:01,000 Speaker 1: prey and um, using its web like a sling shot. 540 00:35:01,680 --> 00:35:05,560 Speaker 1: And you know, I think that it makes them like 541 00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:09,239 Speaker 1: a cute little rascal. You said it's horrifying that they 542 00:35:09,239 --> 00:35:12,560 Speaker 1: would do that to a fly and eat them alive. 543 00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:14,839 Speaker 1: And I feel like because you said it looks like 544 00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:19,520 Speaker 1: it's teleporting. Yes, it's true, it does teleport towards its 545 00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:23,279 Speaker 1: prey and then kills it dead. Um, So you know, 546 00:35:23,600 --> 00:35:26,600 Speaker 1: maybe there's maybe, like we both have a point let's 547 00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:31,719 Speaker 1: say that right. Let's regroup. Let's regroup. Tell me, tell 548 00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:36,080 Speaker 1: me about your love of spiders. Yes, so I do 549 00:35:36,440 --> 00:35:40,600 Speaker 1: want to talk about how cute it is when spiders 550 00:35:40,640 --> 00:35:43,160 Speaker 1: have friends, and I want to talk about you know, 551 00:35:43,160 --> 00:35:46,440 Speaker 1: there there are a lot of classical friendship between animals 552 00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:50,960 Speaker 1: and like Disney movies. It's like, you know, Oliver and Company. 553 00:35:51,080 --> 00:35:55,480 Speaker 1: Remember when that kitten made friends with those dogs. Sometimes 554 00:35:55,520 --> 00:35:59,080 Speaker 1: you'll see in like news stories like this duckling is 555 00:35:59,160 --> 00:36:02,160 Speaker 1: friends with this at or like this pig is friends 556 00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:06,640 Speaker 1: with this sheep. Ah, it's so cute. And spiders do 557 00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:10,360 Speaker 1: that too, sometimes, like the friendship between a spider and 558 00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:15,040 Speaker 1: a carnivorous plant. It's like a musical waiting to happen. 559 00:36:17,239 --> 00:36:22,000 Speaker 1: So uh. The Nepenthes picture plants are a vase shaped 560 00:36:22,040 --> 00:36:26,160 Speaker 1: plant found in Southeast Asia. They attract insects with a 561 00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:30,960 Speaker 1: sweet excretion, but it's a trap. Once the insect ventures 562 00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:35,000 Speaker 1: to the slippery interior walls of the plant, they fall 563 00:36:35,120 --> 00:36:38,080 Speaker 1: down into the belly of the picture plant, which is 564 00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:43,560 Speaker 1: filled with digestive fluid. Once the insect is liquefied, the 565 00:36:43,760 --> 00:36:48,799 Speaker 1: plant can absorb the liquefied nutrients of their victims. Just 566 00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:55,759 Speaker 1: like you know, just like a homeward bound a cute 567 00:36:57,360 --> 00:36:59,960 Speaker 1: or like a soilent or like drinking a Yeah, they 568 00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:03,480 Speaker 1: make their own smoothies. It's it's that's fun and fresh. 569 00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:08,520 Speaker 1: They're like a jomba juice, but they're a plant. Yeah. Yeah, 570 00:37:08,520 --> 00:37:10,759 Speaker 1: if you're like a plant and like you just like 571 00:37:10,800 --> 00:37:15,680 Speaker 1: had a jomba juice in your house, right exactly, Like 572 00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:18,319 Speaker 1: who are we to judge like that? They make their 573 00:37:18,360 --> 00:37:21,040 Speaker 1: smoothies out of flies when we make smoothies out of 574 00:37:21,080 --> 00:37:25,239 Speaker 1: like weird stuff like cheese, you know, yeah, I mean, yeah, 575 00:37:25,239 --> 00:37:27,000 Speaker 1: we're on the plant is looking at us like, oh 576 00:37:27,040 --> 00:37:29,560 Speaker 1: my god, oh my god, you make smoothies out of plants. 577 00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:33,960 Speaker 1: That's messed up. That's messed up, right, Yeah, exactly. Uh Well, 578 00:37:34,080 --> 00:37:37,040 Speaker 1: there's a beautiful friendship between these plants and the yellow 579 00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:41,920 Speaker 1: crab spiders and also the red crab spiders. So the 580 00:37:42,239 --> 00:37:46,000 Speaker 1: yellow crab spider is a lovely, bright yellow crab like spider, 581 00:37:46,160 --> 00:37:49,480 Speaker 1: as its name implies, they're they're not too big. The 582 00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:52,200 Speaker 1: females are usually less than half an inch in length 583 00:37:52,239 --> 00:37:55,480 Speaker 1: around ten millimeters or less, and males are even smaller. 584 00:37:56,480 --> 00:38:00,480 Speaker 1: The red crab spiders even littler it's about six millimeters 585 00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:03,080 Speaker 1: or point two inches long. So these are these are 586 00:38:03,080 --> 00:38:06,560 Speaker 1: little spiders. They're quite pretty in my opinion. They are 587 00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:10,440 Speaker 1: these bright colors. They look sort of like flower like 588 00:38:10,680 --> 00:38:13,440 Speaker 1: in a in a weird way. And both of these 589 00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:16,920 Speaker 1: crap spiders like to make their home in the carnivorous 590 00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:21,319 Speaker 1: picture plant. They will lay in wait just under the 591 00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:24,400 Speaker 1: rim of the pictures opening, and when a fly or 592 00:38:24,480 --> 00:38:29,480 Speaker 1: other insect comes to investigate the sweet smelling nectar that 593 00:38:29,600 --> 00:38:34,960 Speaker 1: the plant has um excreted as a bait, the spider 594 00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:38,600 Speaker 1: will actually strike out and catch this insect. But then 595 00:38:38,640 --> 00:38:40,719 Speaker 1: does it? But then doesn't the picture plant get mad 596 00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:43,720 Speaker 1: about that? You would think so, right, Well, first of all, 597 00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:47,799 Speaker 1: I don't know what an angry plant looks like. It 598 00:38:47,880 --> 00:38:51,439 Speaker 1: does its leaves just kind of scowl at you. I'm 599 00:38:51,480 --> 00:38:53,600 Speaker 1: trying to think. Or does it start to just try 600 00:38:53,600 --> 00:38:55,960 Speaker 1: to trap the spider and try to, you know, get 601 00:38:55,960 --> 00:38:59,800 Speaker 1: put up more of that liquid to get the spider. No, Actually, 602 00:38:59,840 --> 00:39:03,240 Speaker 1: it turns out that this is a beneficial relationship even 603 00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:07,920 Speaker 1: for the plant, which is surprising. Right, So the spider 604 00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:11,399 Speaker 1: is safe from the plant generally speaking, because it has 605 00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:15,480 Speaker 1: a strand of silk that it's attached outside of the 606 00:39:15,520 --> 00:39:18,760 Speaker 1: picture so that even if it like slips, it's still 607 00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:22,880 Speaker 1: got this safety literal safety net preventing it from falling 608 00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:28,480 Speaker 1: into the digestive basin. But they are actually doing something 609 00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:32,360 Speaker 1: that ends up helping the plant in certain ways. So uh, 610 00:39:32,400 --> 00:39:36,840 Speaker 1: they may increase the success rate of capturing more agile 611 00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:41,040 Speaker 1: flies who might otherwise evade the picture plants trapped the 612 00:39:41,120 --> 00:39:44,080 Speaker 1: presence of these spiders. Researchers went around and like measured 613 00:39:44,120 --> 00:39:46,920 Speaker 1: the number of flies and stuff inside the picture plant, 614 00:39:47,160 --> 00:39:49,680 Speaker 1: and picture plants who had these spiders living on them, 615 00:39:49,719 --> 00:39:53,680 Speaker 1: they actually would have more flies inside the picture plants. 616 00:39:53,760 --> 00:39:57,920 Speaker 1: So what probably happens is these spiders are good at 617 00:39:57,960 --> 00:40:01,520 Speaker 1: like knocking a fly down right catching, you know, knocking flydown. 618 00:40:01,600 --> 00:40:04,000 Speaker 1: But sometimes they you know, miss they make a mistake, 619 00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:07,640 Speaker 1: and if the fly starts to escape, then it slips 620 00:40:07,680 --> 00:40:10,440 Speaker 1: down into the picture plant. So the picture plant is 621 00:40:10,480 --> 00:40:14,640 Speaker 1: getting the flies that the spider is not successfully catching um, 622 00:40:14,840 --> 00:40:18,440 Speaker 1: and that means it's actually increasing the rate of success 623 00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:22,239 Speaker 1: for these picture plants. In addition, the spider one it's 624 00:40:22,280 --> 00:40:25,560 Speaker 1: eating the insect is kind of messy, so it'll drop 625 00:40:25,680 --> 00:40:29,520 Speaker 1: like crumbs which are just insect parts down into the picture, 626 00:40:29,760 --> 00:40:34,960 Speaker 1: which the picture plant also digests. Additionally, the spiders once 627 00:40:35,120 --> 00:40:38,120 Speaker 1: when they like die of old age or something like, 628 00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:40,600 Speaker 1: they will actually fall into the picture. So it's like 629 00:40:40,719 --> 00:40:44,440 Speaker 1: one last gift that these little friendly spiders give to 630 00:40:44,520 --> 00:40:47,480 Speaker 1: the picture plants, which is their own body as a snack, 631 00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:52,440 Speaker 1: which is adorable. Like homeward bound basically bas where the 632 00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:57,120 Speaker 1: red fern grows, right exactly. Yeah, yeah, man, that book sucked. 633 00:40:57,680 --> 00:41:02,600 Speaker 1: It made me sad. I got angry as a kid. No, 634 00:41:02,760 --> 00:41:06,000 Speaker 1: I yeah, it was a that's like, that's the kind 635 00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:08,839 Speaker 1: of the first touch of tragedy. Yeah, how dare they? 636 00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:11,720 Speaker 1: How dare they try to make me feel complex adult 637 00:41:11,800 --> 00:41:16,080 Speaker 1: feelings as a literal child. I should see them. There 638 00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:19,480 Speaker 1: was also that book The Yearling. Did you ever read that? No? 639 00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:24,239 Speaker 1: I didn't. It's horrible, highly disrecommend the opposite of recommend 640 00:41:24,680 --> 00:41:29,480 Speaker 1: as Anyways, Yeah, they were beautifully written books, but if 641 00:41:29,520 --> 00:41:32,080 Speaker 1: you if the end of the book. Same thing with 642 00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:33,959 Speaker 1: Old Yeller. It's like at the end of the book, 643 00:41:33,960 --> 00:41:37,279 Speaker 1: it's like, ah, you made a bond with these cute animals. Well, 644 00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:39,400 Speaker 1: now we're going to kill him. It's like, you know what, 645 00:41:40,520 --> 00:41:43,040 Speaker 1: maybe I'll write a book about a spider and a 646 00:41:43,080 --> 00:41:47,319 Speaker 1: picture plant and their friends and they live forever and 647 00:41:47,320 --> 00:41:49,120 Speaker 1: then they die and then the and on the last 648 00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:52,080 Speaker 1: day and the last day of the spider's life. You know, 649 00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:55,480 Speaker 1: it's basically like a Tuesday's with Marie. But then the 650 00:41:55,520 --> 00:41:58,840 Speaker 1: spider dies and just gives itself to the plant. Yeah, 651 00:41:59,080 --> 00:42:01,360 Speaker 1: or they or they are acute and they live forever. 652 00:42:01,520 --> 00:42:07,440 Speaker 1: Also the end that can't happen, I guess not. I 653 00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:10,480 Speaker 1: guess the harsh realities of life must be taught to 654 00:42:10,640 --> 00:42:13,680 Speaker 1: children and make them cry. Um. But yeah, I mean, 655 00:42:13,960 --> 00:42:18,640 Speaker 1: you know this is I love these like symbiotic relationships 656 00:42:18,640 --> 00:42:21,439 Speaker 1: where like at first it seems like these spiders are 657 00:42:21,560 --> 00:42:27,239 Speaker 1: klepto parasites. So klepto parasite is something that steals resources 658 00:42:27,320 --> 00:42:31,319 Speaker 1: from you, so they're not actually attacking your body like 659 00:42:31,480 --> 00:42:34,800 Speaker 1: um uh, you know, like an indo parasite lives inside 660 00:42:34,840 --> 00:42:38,479 Speaker 1: of you and you know, like taking your shine right 661 00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:42,799 Speaker 1: right exactly. An ectoparasite is like a flea or a tick. 662 00:42:42,920 --> 00:42:47,680 Speaker 1: It's you know, uh, sucking your blood or taking nutrients 663 00:42:47,719 --> 00:42:50,239 Speaker 1: from your body by living outside your body. But a 664 00:42:50,320 --> 00:42:56,640 Speaker 1: klepto parasite steals your resources. So like certain like seabirds 665 00:42:56,680 --> 00:43:00,160 Speaker 1: can often be kleptose parasites, Like goals will steal fish 666 00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:03,000 Speaker 1: from birds other birds who have caught the fish, and 667 00:43:03,040 --> 00:43:06,400 Speaker 1: so that's a klepto parasite. And so like these spiders 668 00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:09,840 Speaker 1: seem like klepto parasites. They're taking the insects that would 669 00:43:09,880 --> 00:43:13,000 Speaker 1: otherwise get into the picture, But it actually seems more 670 00:43:13,600 --> 00:43:19,280 Speaker 1: like it is a mutualistic relationship where the spiders um 671 00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:23,120 Speaker 1: get more success rate because the plant is attracting insects 672 00:43:23,120 --> 00:43:27,239 Speaker 1: and the plant actually gets the sort of failures of 673 00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:30,160 Speaker 1: the spider when like the foul balls that the spider 674 00:43:30,239 --> 00:43:33,080 Speaker 1: is dropping into the picture, the picture is getting. It's 675 00:43:33,080 --> 00:43:35,840 Speaker 1: like teamworky, it sounds that's actually sounds like a super 676 00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:39,440 Speaker 1: healthy partnership. It is. Yeah, it's actually it reminds me 677 00:43:39,480 --> 00:43:43,480 Speaker 1: a little bit of the relationship between badgers and coyotes. 678 00:43:43,880 --> 00:43:46,680 Speaker 1: Have you ever seen like those those videos of like 679 00:43:46,920 --> 00:43:51,520 Speaker 1: a coyote and a badger walking together. Uh No, it's 680 00:43:51,600 --> 00:43:55,440 Speaker 1: very cute. Highly recommend that. Don't don't read Where the 681 00:43:55,480 --> 00:43:58,799 Speaker 1: Red Fern Grows, don't read books, just watch videos of 682 00:43:59,040 --> 00:44:03,680 Speaker 1: the badgers and the coyotes. I'm joking. Books are a 683 00:44:03,680 --> 00:44:07,160 Speaker 1: wonderful world into the imagination. Do read them just like 684 00:44:07,200 --> 00:44:09,360 Speaker 1: if it's where the red Fern grows, skip the last 685 00:44:10,120 --> 00:44:14,759 Speaker 1: twenty pages. But yeah, yeah, badgers and coyotes will team up. 686 00:44:14,800 --> 00:44:18,920 Speaker 1: And what they do is they will attack um uh 687 00:44:19,080 --> 00:44:25,120 Speaker 1: burrows of like you know, things like gophers, um, groundhogs, 688 00:44:25,200 --> 00:44:29,640 Speaker 1: and like they will. The badger is very good at 689 00:44:29,680 --> 00:44:34,320 Speaker 1: digging and the coyote is very good at chasing and catching. 690 00:44:34,440 --> 00:44:36,960 Speaker 1: And the badger will go on one end of the 691 00:44:37,000 --> 00:44:40,920 Speaker 1: burrow and start digging in and these poor terrified little 692 00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:44,160 Speaker 1: rodents will try to escape the badger and run out, 693 00:44:44,160 --> 00:44:46,440 Speaker 1: and what do they see on the exit hole a 694 00:44:46,520 --> 00:44:51,399 Speaker 1: coyote there to catch them. And so the badger will 695 00:44:51,480 --> 00:44:54,799 Speaker 1: sometimes catch the rodents right like, because they'll sometimes run 696 00:44:54,800 --> 00:44:58,520 Speaker 1: out that way, um because they're scared of the coyote. 697 00:44:58,719 --> 00:45:01,040 Speaker 1: And sometimes the coyote will hatch them because they're scared 698 00:45:01,080 --> 00:45:04,399 Speaker 1: of the badger. So it's like, you know, they they 699 00:45:04,480 --> 00:45:10,200 Speaker 1: basically trapped these these uh their prey and so either 700 00:45:10,280 --> 00:45:12,760 Speaker 1: the prey is going to get got by the badger 701 00:45:12,920 --> 00:45:15,880 Speaker 1: or the coyote, and so in that way they actually 702 00:45:15,920 --> 00:45:19,160 Speaker 1: both benefit even though they're not directly like sharing the 703 00:45:19,239 --> 00:45:23,320 Speaker 1: food They're not like killing a ground hugin and presenting 704 00:45:23,360 --> 00:45:26,520 Speaker 1: it to the other one. Uh. In effect, by them 705 00:45:26,560 --> 00:45:30,640 Speaker 1: both being there and cornering these poor little rodents, they 706 00:45:30,640 --> 00:45:33,319 Speaker 1: are helping each other. Um, but they're also both bits. 707 00:45:33,440 --> 00:45:38,040 Speaker 1: Like a rising tide floats all boats, you know, just 708 00:45:38,080 --> 00:45:41,760 Speaker 1: like a total panic attack of a rodent colony floats 709 00:45:41,760 --> 00:45:45,600 Speaker 1: all boats. Everyone. I like that saying better, a total 710 00:45:45,640 --> 00:45:49,880 Speaker 1: panic panic attack of a rodent floats all boats of 711 00:45:49,920 --> 00:45:52,799 Speaker 1: an entire rodent colony. Right, an individual rodent won't be 712 00:45:52,880 --> 00:45:54,480 Speaker 1: enough to feed them, but like they're doing it to 713 00:45:54,640 --> 00:45:57,840 Speaker 1: terrorize the entire column. The terrified screams of a rodent 714 00:45:59,280 --> 00:46:03,359 Speaker 1: is good for the goose and the gander. M hmm, well, 715 00:46:03,480 --> 00:46:07,320 Speaker 1: you know, mixing lots of animals. Yeah, yeah, it actually 716 00:46:07,360 --> 00:46:12,000 Speaker 1: to me, it reminds me of the symbiotic relationship of 717 00:46:12,160 --> 00:46:17,320 Speaker 1: a small child and a dog. Dogs really love small 718 00:46:17,600 --> 00:46:19,520 Speaker 1: like a smart dog, like there are some dogs that 719 00:46:19,600 --> 00:46:21,640 Speaker 1: just hate kids, and you don't want the round kids. 720 00:46:21,680 --> 00:46:25,160 Speaker 1: And then like a really smart dog knows that children 721 00:46:25,400 --> 00:46:29,680 Speaker 1: are frequently being offered food, and children frequently refuse it, 722 00:46:29,800 --> 00:46:32,920 Speaker 1: and even when they do eat it, they're extremely messy eaters, 723 00:46:33,840 --> 00:46:36,879 Speaker 1: and so they just stick the kids. What's the what's 724 00:46:36,920 --> 00:46:40,800 Speaker 1: the dog giving the child though? Other than emotional affection, 725 00:46:41,840 --> 00:46:45,279 Speaker 1: I guess well, constant play buddy. But also you know 726 00:46:45,440 --> 00:46:47,560 Speaker 1: then if you don't like something, you can sneak it 727 00:46:47,600 --> 00:46:52,920 Speaker 1: to the dog eaters. Yeah. Man, I was such a 728 00:46:52,960 --> 00:46:54,759 Speaker 1: picky eater as a kid. I should have had a 729 00:46:54,880 --> 00:46:57,399 Speaker 1: dog because I had a cat and if I tried 730 00:46:57,440 --> 00:47:01,799 Speaker 1: to feed her apee, she'd try to kill me. Yeah, 731 00:47:01,840 --> 00:47:03,800 Speaker 1: I don't think that's I don't think cats and humans 732 00:47:03,800 --> 00:47:06,799 Speaker 1: have as much as symbiotic relationship, no, as much as 733 00:47:06,880 --> 00:47:10,319 Speaker 1: like a sub dumb relationship. Yeah, they're more bosses, right, 734 00:47:10,480 --> 00:47:15,080 Speaker 1: like you know, we're there, we're the cats employees. Like 735 00:47:15,120 --> 00:47:17,960 Speaker 1: I'm trying to like earn my cat's affection to like 736 00:47:18,120 --> 00:47:20,960 Speaker 1: heal the love that I do not feel like I 737 00:47:21,000 --> 00:47:26,520 Speaker 1: got as a child. Yeah. Yeah, it's uh yeah, you 738 00:47:26,560 --> 00:47:30,879 Speaker 1: know it's are we it's kind of a codependent relationship 739 00:47:30,960 --> 00:47:34,200 Speaker 1: with cats, I think versus with dogs or like spiders 740 00:47:34,200 --> 00:47:39,000 Speaker 1: and spiders and picture plants. Yeah, a picture it's that, 741 00:47:39,040 --> 00:47:42,520 Speaker 1: it is. It is such a beautiful like relationship though, 742 00:47:42,719 --> 00:47:45,440 Speaker 1: you know, just like they're both they're both giving and 743 00:47:45,480 --> 00:47:50,239 Speaker 1: they're both taking, which is what you want. Yeah, they're 744 00:47:50,280 --> 00:47:55,040 Speaker 1: like leave they leave no crumbs. Yeah, like together they 745 00:47:55,080 --> 00:47:58,040 Speaker 1: like the plate clean the plate, being flies another and 746 00:47:58,239 --> 00:48:02,520 Speaker 1: flying insects. But yeah, so so have I warmed you 747 00:48:02,600 --> 00:48:05,719 Speaker 1: up a little bit to spiders? Maybe possibly a little bit. 748 00:48:05,880 --> 00:48:08,799 Speaker 1: I do. I do feel, you know, I do empathize 749 00:48:08,800 --> 00:48:10,879 Speaker 1: with that perspective of like, hey, there's enough for all 750 00:48:10,920 --> 00:48:13,960 Speaker 1: of us, don't fight over them. If we fight together 751 00:48:14,080 --> 00:48:16,680 Speaker 1: instead of fighting each other, there's enough for us all 752 00:48:16,760 --> 00:48:20,080 Speaker 1: to grow big and strong. Yeah exactly. I love that 753 00:48:20,120 --> 00:48:24,919 Speaker 1: these are very these are these spiders have a very 754 00:48:25,040 --> 00:48:31,080 Speaker 1: um not what's the opposite of zero sum? Hundredsome it's 755 00:48:31,200 --> 00:48:35,239 Speaker 1: win win win, right, Yeah, exactly. They understand, they get it. 756 00:48:35,320 --> 00:48:37,719 Speaker 1: These spiders get it that we don't have to live 757 00:48:37,719 --> 00:48:41,120 Speaker 1: in a zero sum society. We can support each other, 758 00:48:41,360 --> 00:48:47,360 Speaker 1: community care, sharing fly parts. It's beautiful. We make a 759 00:48:47,400 --> 00:48:49,520 Speaker 1: bigger we make a bigger pie, We make a bigger 760 00:48:49,760 --> 00:48:53,000 Speaker 1: more flies, a big fly pie, right exactly, to fight 761 00:48:53,000 --> 00:48:56,640 Speaker 1: over the pie. That's a that's right, that that sounds wonderful. 762 00:48:57,200 --> 00:49:00,799 Speaker 1: So like zero out of tin, how would you write spiders? 763 00:49:01,160 --> 00:49:09,200 Speaker 1: Um ivy um? I mean on what scale? Just don't 764 00:49:09,320 --> 00:49:15,440 Speaker 1: I don't feel that you've made spiders cuter for me today. Uh, 765 00:49:15,480 --> 00:49:19,000 Speaker 1: and I feel like my I can maintain my armistice 766 00:49:19,960 --> 00:49:24,000 Speaker 1: with spiders in perpetuity. But I do feel like I 767 00:49:24,080 --> 00:49:27,920 Speaker 1: learned something from nature today. So like that would be 768 00:49:27,960 --> 00:49:33,440 Speaker 1: a tin you'd say, mm hmmm. No, I mean I 769 00:49:32,920 --> 00:49:35,719 Speaker 1: I learned things from Uh you know, I learned I 770 00:49:35,840 --> 00:49:42,560 Speaker 1: learned things from osama bin laden, So things from anything. 771 00:49:43,239 --> 00:49:46,840 Speaker 1: You heard it here, folks, You heard it here first, folks, 772 00:49:46,960 --> 00:49:53,800 Speaker 1: spiders just like a sama bin laden some of the 773 00:49:53,960 --> 00:49:59,640 Speaker 1: laden out of tin. That's that's where that's where we're at. 774 00:50:01,160 --> 00:50:05,600 Speaker 1: The enemy still an enemy. But uh, you know, a 775 00:50:06,480 --> 00:50:10,440 Speaker 1: worthy a worthy opponent. It's what you're saying about a 776 00:50:10,560 --> 00:50:20,200 Speaker 1: sama pin on, a worthy worthy opponent. Ah. Anyways, saw 777 00:50:20,280 --> 00:50:23,560 Speaker 1: our toes had a sawn our toes. I'm not gonna lie. 778 00:50:23,880 --> 00:50:32,239 Speaker 1: But before we get inundated with emails, uh, we gotta 779 00:50:32,320 --> 00:50:35,760 Speaker 1: play a little game. And that game is called gets 780 00:50:35,760 --> 00:50:41,000 Speaker 1: Who's Squawking? Guess Who's Squawking? Is the Mystery Animal sound game. 781 00:50:41,760 --> 00:50:44,799 Speaker 1: Each week I play a Mystery animals sound in you 782 00:50:44,920 --> 00:50:47,880 Speaker 1: the listener, and hey, you the guest, to try to 783 00:50:48,200 --> 00:50:53,480 Speaker 1: guess who is squawking. Last week's Mystery Animals sound hint was, 784 00:50:53,719 --> 00:50:57,640 Speaker 1: who's this knocking? Well, don't let it raise your hackles. 785 00:50:58,160 --> 00:51:02,200 Speaker 1: You're really gonna test my credentials as a nature show 786 00:51:02,239 --> 00:51:07,560 Speaker 1: host today. He's so tricky I probably wouldn't get Honestly, 787 00:51:07,600 --> 00:51:14,759 Speaker 1: if I were playing against me, I would probably Ah, 788 00:51:15,880 --> 00:51:27,680 Speaker 1: oh that left alt weird inside my ears? Ah Frog, Frog, 789 00:51:28,120 --> 00:51:34,279 Speaker 1: Oh oh it sounds so weird. Yeah, I hope you're 790 00:51:34,400 --> 00:51:42,600 Speaker 1: you're not listening to the headphones right now. Ah Uh, 791 00:51:42,960 --> 00:51:45,400 Speaker 1: it's it's like a fun little a SMR. Isn't it 792 00:51:45,400 --> 00:51:49,719 Speaker 1: a little tickle in your ear? It looks like I 793 00:51:49,760 --> 00:51:53,160 Speaker 1: got it looks it feels like someone like licked the 794 00:51:53,200 --> 00:51:57,960 Speaker 1: inside of my ears without my consent. It's like it 795 00:51:58,040 --> 00:52:01,480 Speaker 1: was like a non consensual what will it? Non consensual? 796 00:52:01,480 --> 00:52:07,640 Speaker 1: A sm some more like super super inappropriate a SMR touch. 797 00:52:10,320 --> 00:52:13,560 Speaker 1: So you guessed frog, that's not correct? Did you have 798 00:52:13,600 --> 00:52:18,000 Speaker 1: any more guesses? Like? Literally, anything could be a bird? 799 00:52:19,560 --> 00:52:22,080 Speaker 1: Any sound like there's a bird that can make that sound? 800 00:52:22,200 --> 00:52:25,880 Speaker 1: It is a bird. You're correct on that. Do you 801 00:52:25,880 --> 00:52:27,680 Speaker 1: want to guess the species of bird or do you 802 00:52:27,680 --> 00:52:31,160 Speaker 1: want to like leave it generally just a bird? I 803 00:52:31,320 --> 00:52:37,640 Speaker 1: only know like three birds, which are the birds? You know? Pigeon, grackle, 804 00:52:38,040 --> 00:52:45,120 Speaker 1: and dove. Well it's probably closest to the grackle. Um, 805 00:52:45,120 --> 00:52:50,960 Speaker 1: but this is actually a raven. Oh so you may 806 00:52:50,960 --> 00:52:53,919 Speaker 1: have noticed the term hackles being used in my hint. 807 00:52:54,080 --> 00:52:57,640 Speaker 1: So hackles of the raven are those roughly feathers on 808 00:52:57,680 --> 00:53:01,759 Speaker 1: their throat. So ravens don't just croak. They make a 809 00:53:01,840 --> 00:53:06,040 Speaker 1: wide variety of noises. They can even learn to imitate 810 00:53:06,239 --> 00:53:11,080 Speaker 1: human speech, so there are in fact talking ravens, usually 811 00:53:11,120 --> 00:53:15,439 Speaker 1: at zoos um, but in this case poems they do these. 812 00:53:15,480 --> 00:53:19,520 Speaker 1: Sometimes they write poems too, and then some sad guy 813 00:53:19,600 --> 00:53:23,200 Speaker 1: from like the eighteen hundreds steals that poem and claims 814 00:53:23,200 --> 00:53:28,760 Speaker 1: it's his. H So you know, this sound is actually 815 00:53:28,800 --> 00:53:32,960 Speaker 1: not imitation. This is a natural sound that they make. 816 00:53:34,120 --> 00:53:36,960 Speaker 1: And this it's like it kind of sounds like a 817 00:53:37,000 --> 00:53:42,000 Speaker 1: weird water droplets, sound like some weird machine. Um. This 818 00:53:42,080 --> 00:53:45,800 Speaker 1: is most likely the call of either a mated pair 819 00:53:46,000 --> 00:53:49,920 Speaker 1: communicating with each other and reaffirming their bond, or a 820 00:53:50,000 --> 00:53:54,879 Speaker 1: dominant female raven in the social hierarchy sounding off and 821 00:53:54,960 --> 00:53:59,000 Speaker 1: kind of uh, I guess, strengthening her role as the 822 00:53:59,040 --> 00:54:03,719 Speaker 1: dominant female. Oh and we can't tell the difference, We 823 00:54:03,760 --> 00:54:08,360 Speaker 1: don't know, Yeah, I don't think we fully speak raven 824 00:54:08,840 --> 00:54:12,640 Speaker 1: at this point. It's like, you know, they probably have. 825 00:54:13,120 --> 00:54:15,759 Speaker 1: They probably have some kind of accent. There's probably like, 826 00:54:16,320 --> 00:54:21,080 Speaker 1: you know, like an oom out somewhere on the that 827 00:54:21,120 --> 00:54:24,520 Speaker 1: they say, um, but yeah, I'm not sure we we 828 00:54:24,680 --> 00:54:28,480 Speaker 1: full Maybe a raven expert might fully understand this, the 829 00:54:28,560 --> 00:54:33,360 Speaker 1: subtle differences in tones and ornithologists. The ornithologist who was 830 00:54:33,400 --> 00:54:35,600 Speaker 1: like collecting these sounds and they're just watching it and 831 00:54:35,600 --> 00:54:40,080 Speaker 1: they're like, Okay, either it's affirming, it's affirming this like 832 00:54:40,200 --> 00:54:43,799 Speaker 1: familial bond, or it's both. It's both like or like 833 00:54:44,120 --> 00:54:46,120 Speaker 1: they're like, but then I also heard it there and 834 00:54:46,200 --> 00:54:49,600 Speaker 1: I don't know if it's asserting her dominance or if 835 00:54:49,680 --> 00:54:54,400 Speaker 1: she's just affirming her familiar blond with her like lesbian polycule. 836 00:54:55,640 --> 00:54:57,960 Speaker 1: I mean it's kind of like, I mean, humans have 837 00:54:58,200 --> 00:55:01,799 Speaker 1: stuff like that, like hey babe. Can a couple reaffirming 838 00:55:01,840 --> 00:55:05,600 Speaker 1: their bond or it can be like uh, you know, 839 00:55:06,000 --> 00:55:09,719 Speaker 1: a boss boss Batch being like hey babe, like you know, 840 00:55:10,000 --> 00:55:12,279 Speaker 1: basically like it, And it depends on the tonel like 841 00:55:12,320 --> 00:55:15,560 Speaker 1: hey babe, that's nice, like we're reaffirming our our bond. 842 00:55:15,560 --> 00:55:18,520 Speaker 1: But if it's like hey babe, hey babe, Hey babe. 843 00:55:19,080 --> 00:55:21,239 Speaker 1: Then it's it's a little agressive there. It's getting a 844 00:55:21,239 --> 00:55:23,680 Speaker 1: little bit a little bit aggressive. So I'm gonna saybe 845 00:55:23,680 --> 00:55:26,200 Speaker 1: you need to like chill or like hey, babes, sign 846 00:55:26,280 --> 00:55:28,160 Speaker 1: up for my free webinar where I'm not going to 847 00:55:28,239 --> 00:55:31,120 Speaker 1: try to sell you anything.
