Yeah, I weirdly have more energy eating less. 63 00:03:57,160 --> 00:03:58,960 Speaker 2: I don't know why, but I'm going to guess it's 64 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:01,400 Speaker 2: because you're burning fast in fact, gives you energy. See 65 00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 2: your body right now is consuming itself and now you're 66 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:07,000 Speaker 2: pumped up. I'm pumped up, ready to go. 67 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:11,680 Speaker 1: All those cells, all those cells are no longer building. 68 00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:16,040 Speaker 1: They're they're going in and they're restructuring.

Maybe things get really interesting. 75 00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:36,040 Speaker 1: That's the thing is, we now just need to generate 76 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:38,960 Speaker 1: stories in our life to tell on the podcast. At 77 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 1: this point fun.

The Japanese have a theory is 91 00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:18,120 Speaker 1: a better title That was from The av Club, written 92 00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:22,760 Speaker 1: by Mike Vago Speaking of this was sent in by 93 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:24,920 Speaker 1: Courtney Farvar. Thank you, Courtney. 94 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:25,440 Speaker 3: You know what. 95 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 1: How However, Courtney actually sent in the one for mental floss, 96 00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:36,200 Speaker 1: the article by Ellen Gutowski. I mean she she has 97 00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:38,719 Speaker 1: gut in her name, which is perfect for this story. 98 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:44,960 Speaker 1: And I prefer Ellen's version just because it's not just summing. 99 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 2: Up a Wikipedia page. Here we go. Love that. 100 00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:50,799 Speaker 1: In the mid nineteen eighties, a woman named Marico Aoki 101 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:55,159 Speaker 1: sent a letter to Japan's Han no Zashi or book magazine, 102 00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:59,719 Speaker 1: explaining a puzzling condition. Whenever Aoki entered a bookstore, her 103 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,000 Speaker 1: owl suddenly leaped to life. 104 00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:03,120 Speaker 2: Leapt to life. 105 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:07,160 Speaker 1: Oh, suddenly seemed to leap to life. That's a great 106 00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:11,000 Speaker 1: way to say, suddenly seemed to leap to life. Is 107 00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 1: that's the best in the biz kind of writing. Thank you, 108 00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:21,600 Speaker 1: Ellen Getski Gitoski. The magazine printed the letter in its 109 00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:24,919 Speaker 1: February nineteen eighty five issue, and it soon became clear 110 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:29,720 Speaker 1: that Aoki wasn't alone. Other readers mailed in letters detailing 111 00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 1: similar experiences, and Han no Zashi hand no Zashi capitalized 112 00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:38,440 Speaker 1: on the momentum of the topic by publishing a lengthy 113 00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 1: feature article called quote the phenomenon currently shaking the bookstory industry, 114 00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:49,599 Speaker 1: Oh hand no Zashi very funny. Decades later, a Bookshop's 115 00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:54,440 Speaker 1: mystifying ability to galvanize some people's gastro intentional tracks into 116 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:57,720 Speaker 1: action isn't exactly being taught in medical schools. While the 117 00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:01,640 Speaker 1: condition hasn't been scientifically proven, its garden enough media coverage 118 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:04,960 Speaker 1: and public corroboration over the years to warrant a pretty 119 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 1: extensive entry on Wikipedia. It's called as the AV Club reports. 120 00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:11,640 Speaker 1: See when they say that, it's like, well, we got 121 00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:13,600 Speaker 1: to go to the main source, But the main source 122 00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:15,520 Speaker 1: isn't even the AV Club. They're just going from the 123 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:18,000 Speaker 1: Wikipedia page, right, So I'm going to hop on over 124 00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:22,280 Speaker 1: to the AV Club article with the strangest fact. They 125 00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 1: have the strangest fact. So this is from a thing 126 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:27,480 Speaker 1: that they do, I guess every week where it's they 127 00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:30,360 Speaker 1: explore Wikipedia oddities, which is such a great idea. 128 00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:32,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, that is a good idea, and I'm sure there's 129 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:35,520 Speaker 2: a podcast or five about that. That's a great idea though, right. 130 00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 1: The phenomenon only grew in time as it spread to 131 00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:43,960 Speaker 1: other media. Other magazines discussed the phenomenon in the wake 132 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:47,920 Speaker 1: of Aoki's article, and she herself was interviewed by numerous outlets. 133 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 1: She's on record as saying she doesn't mind her name 134 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:53,960 Speaker 1: being associated with bookstore pooping. Oh what I didn't mention 135 00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:57,600 Speaker 1: is that they actually called it Marico Aoki. That's the 136 00:07:57,760 --> 00:08:04,120 Speaker 1: name of this sensation. Cool. Imagine if we had just 137 00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 1: like the Timothy Smith, which meant you ship your pants 138 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:10,240 Speaker 1: in a bookstore. Do you know what I mean, man 139 00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:14,920 Speaker 1: I Timothy Schmid It that's a theory. Uh. 140 00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:16,240 Speaker 3: And so. 141 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:20,720 Speaker 2: A decade later, Aoki was still being talked about. 142 00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:23,800 Speaker 1: Her phenomenon had left from print to TV as all 143 00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:26,360 Speaker 1: these different TV shows did it. 144 00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:29,680 Speaker 4: Here. 145 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:32,839 Speaker 1: I'm trying to get the thing. Oh yeah, the thing 146 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 1: we were happiest to learn. The AV Club says, the 147 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:39,400 Speaker 1: scientific community has weighed in on Marico Aoki. Studies have 148 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:43,640 Speaker 1: been done. Uh what the Japanese have termed book bowel 149 00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:50,839 Speaker 1: tendency an elevated likelihood of experiencing Marika Aoki phenomenon their conclusions, 150 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:57,840 Speaker 1: This is fascinating. The phenomenon is distributed evenly throughout every 151 00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:02,200 Speaker 1: region of Japan. It's between two and four times more 152 00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:07,360 Speaker 1: prevalent in women than men and uncommon in quote sporty males, 153 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:12,319 Speaker 1: which is apparently a term researchers used. Between ten and 154 00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:15,960 Speaker 1: twenty percent of the population suffers from Aoki, with one 155 00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:19,640 Speaker 1: survey reaching over twenty five percent, and it seems to 156 00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:24,800 Speaker 1: largely be an adult onset condition, although it does exist 157 00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:29,640 Speaker 1: in children. Wikipedia suggests that authors and people working and 158 00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 1: publishing are more likely to be affected, although we'd suggest 159 00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:34,040 Speaker 1: that these people are simply more likely to spend time 160 00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:37,679 Speaker 1: in bookstores. Bookstore employees, on the other hand, seen to 161 00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:40,960 Speaker 1: have built up a tolerance and are not affected. Wikipedia 162 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:46,240 Speaker 1: quotes plastic surgeon Kyoshi Matsua, clearly the relevant medical expert 163 00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:50,560 Speaker 1: on hand, as saying, quote, it could occur to anyone, 164 00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:54,599 Speaker 1: and then like, people have all these different theories that 165 00:09:54,920 --> 00:10:00,640 Speaker 1: it's like that there's a there's ink, It's like either 166 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:04,040 Speaker 1: paper or ink triggers the sensation. There's even a conspiracy 167 00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:07,719 Speaker 1: theory suggested that it's done deliberately by paper manufacturers to 168 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:09,120 Speaker 1: sell more toilet paper. 169 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:12,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's routine, though I don't. I think 170 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:16,680 Speaker 2: that there's something else going on because when I lived 171 00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:20,040 Speaker 2: in Brooklyn, I had an elevator to the fifth floor. 172 00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:22,120 Speaker 2: I lived on the fifth floor, and every time I 173 00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:23,559 Speaker 2: got in the elevator when I was coming back, I 174 00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:25,480 Speaker 2: felt like I had to pee instantly. And then my 175 00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:28,599 Speaker 2: old roommate's Casey and Amanda. One time, Amanda and I 176 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:30,960 Speaker 2: were talking about She's like, as soon as I open 177 00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 2: the front door of the building, I have to pee, 178 00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:35,679 Speaker 2: and it's like this weird thing where I think it 179 00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:38,480 Speaker 2: was like your body when you're especially in New York, 180 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:40,319 Speaker 2: where you're on a subway for forty five minutes in 181 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:43,280 Speaker 2: each direction, it's like your body. I think this happens 182 00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:44,920 Speaker 2: to a lot of my female friends when they do 183 00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:46,720 Speaker 2: air travel, when they fly a lot, they'll be like, oh, 184 00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:48,240 Speaker 2: I don't go to the bathroom for three days when 185 00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:51,240 Speaker 2: I fly on a plane. And I think it's like 186 00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:53,839 Speaker 2: your brain's like, lock it down. And then when you 187 00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:56,679 Speaker 2: get the permission. And bookstore, especially in big cities, they 188 00:10:56,679 --> 00:11:00,439 Speaker 2: always have nice bathrooms. I think your brain's like, hey, 189 00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:04,600 Speaker 2: he's off that lockdown a little bit. Let's let's slip 190 00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 2: and flood. I like this theory. I like this theory 191 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:08,120 Speaker 2: a lot. 192 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:10,679 Speaker 1: And you know, who knows what the bookstores are like 193 00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:13,800 Speaker 1: in Japan, But I do remember New York City probably nice. 194 00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:15,280 Speaker 2: In New York City. 195 00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:19,520 Speaker 1: I'll always remember the fourteenth Street Barns and Noble. The 196 00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:22,520 Speaker 1: bathrooms were on the third floor absolute and you would 197 00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 1: always have to go up to the third floor. So 198 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:26,240 Speaker 1: if you really had to go to the bathroom a 199 00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:29,240 Speaker 1: that was like the only place to go in Union Square, 200 00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:31,839 Speaker 1: and you'd have to take the escalator all the way 201 00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:34,000 Speaker 1: up three levels and then you would get in there, 202 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:38,880 Speaker 1: and it was that bathroom was destroyed. 203 00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:41,640 Speaker 2: Every time I walked in there. 204 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:46,000 Speaker 1: It was the most upsetting experience one could ever had. 205 00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:48,439 Speaker 1: And then you feel bad too, because you're just like, 206 00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:52,200 Speaker 1: I'm contributing to this, to this horribleness, because the only 207 00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:55,800 Speaker 1: reason I'm here is to use the Barnes and Noble bathroom. 208 00:11:56,800 --> 00:12:00,880 Speaker 2: Oh man, but it reminds me of that time. Oh 209 00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:02,800 Speaker 2: it wasn't a bookstore. 210 00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:04,839 Speaker 1: And I have talked about this on the podcast, but 211 00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:07,600 Speaker 1: I'm gonna talk about it again because there's people maybe 212 00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:08,319 Speaker 1: who have not heard this. 213 00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:08,800 Speaker 2: Welcome. 214 00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:13,959 Speaker 1: I walk in to the another place to go to 215 00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:15,839 Speaker 1: the bathroom in New York City back in the day, 216 00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:21,679 Speaker 1: which was the Apple Store in the Meatpacking District. Again, 217 00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:24,240 Speaker 1: in the meatpacking district, you want to go go to 218 00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:29,640 Speaker 1: the bathroom, you go f yourself like there is nothing. Yeah, yeah, exactly, 219 00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:32,079 Speaker 1: like none of these places they are all open at night. 220 00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:34,400 Speaker 1: Restaurants are not going to let you come in unless 221 00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:37,800 Speaker 1: you're ordering a bottle of wine in that neighborhood. And so, 222 00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:40,319 Speaker 1: but there is a bathroom and you take this beautiful 223 00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:45,960 Speaker 1: glass spiral staircase all the way up. The stairs are glass, 224 00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:48,560 Speaker 1: the side is glass. It's a big glass cube. 225 00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:49,280 Speaker 2: Guys, all right. 226 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:52,119 Speaker 1: It's one of like the first Apple stores in Manhattan, 227 00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:54,520 Speaker 1: I believe. And you walk all the way up and 228 00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:58,480 Speaker 1: you go into a very nice restroom. Yeah, and I 229 00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:04,560 Speaker 1: see the that the the the handicaps doll is available. 230 00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 2: It's the perfect stall. 231 00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:08,880 Speaker 1: It's a little bit bigger. Nobody else is in there, 232 00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:13,400 Speaker 1: but exactly get it away from you. And I figure, 233 00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:15,199 Speaker 1: this is I can I can use that one. No 234 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 1: one's around, no one's around. I'm not, and it's just 235 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:24,199 Speaker 1: a jar a little bit. And so I open the 236 00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:26,920 Speaker 1: door and walk in. And then and then as I'm 237 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:32,600 Speaker 1: like looking up, realize that there is a man fully nude, 238 00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:39,199 Speaker 1: taking a ship and reading the New York Times, and 239 00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:42,360 Speaker 1: that I make a noise, just like so surprised of 240 00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:47,520 Speaker 1: just like well, and that he just peaks. He just 241 00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:51,760 Speaker 1: peaks the corner down like he's expecting me. It just 242 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:57,160 Speaker 1: gives me a big smile, like he has found Nirvana. 243 00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:02,240 Speaker 1: Like he he is, he's been working, he's been working 244 00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:06,000 Speaker 1: through his life to find out the exact situation that 245 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:10,679 Speaker 1: causes him the most joy, which is totally naked, taking 246 00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:13,720 Speaker 1: a shit in an apple store with the door open, 247 00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:17,320 Speaker 1: reading the New York Times, and it's like, he's gotta 248 00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:18,160 Speaker 1: figured out, folks. 249 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:21,320 Speaker 2: But I just shut that door and I walked right out. Yeah, 250 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:25,280 Speaker 2: it's so so true, it's so so true. There was this. 251 00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:29,120 Speaker 2: There was a girl that my freshman year of college 252 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:32,320 Speaker 2: who was on my floor.

She partied a lot, 257 00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:48,200 Speaker 2: and she again this isn't really talking out of class, 258 00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:50,840 Speaker 2: but one night, while hooking up with somebody, it was 259 00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:56,240 Speaker 2: first month of school, September, whenever she was having sex 260 00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:59,000 Speaker 2: and she went to the bathroom on the guy, she 261 00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:01,360 Speaker 2: took a boom boom on the guy by accident. It 262 00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:02,920 Speaker 2: was a total accident and. 263 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:09,400 Speaker 1: So normal, normal, uh, lady on top sex position that 264 00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:12,360 Speaker 1: way boom boom or like reverse calgirl boom boom. 265 00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:16,760 Speaker 2: I think a woman on top boom boom, and and uh, 266 00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:19,040 Speaker 2: you know I've always. 267 00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:22,200 Speaker 1: But I'm figuring out which way was her head facing. 268 00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:24,320 Speaker 1: Was her head facing towards his feet? Was his head 269 00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:31,320 Speaker 1: facing towards that's the w Yeah, yeah, that's the That 270 00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:33,240 Speaker 1: is the most contact we can have. 271 00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:36,120 Speaker 2: Okay, So boom boom has happened in this case scenario, 272 00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:38,440 Speaker 2: So that happens. So anyways, I've always had this, and 273 00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:41,760 Speaker 2: you know this, like people tell me things. They I've 274 00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:43,560 Speaker 2: always sort of been somebody that people can fight in 275 00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:46,800 Speaker 2: because I don't overreact. If anything, I under react and 276 00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:48,800 Speaker 2: tell them they're fine and everything is gonna be okay. 277 00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:50,840 Speaker 2: So like three or four days go by, and of 278 00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:53,880 Speaker 2: course it's like goes around the floor the dorm room, 279 00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:57,360 Speaker 2: like everybody's like did you hear her?

And I was talking to her 282 00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:04,880 Speaker 2: and she told me, She's like, I'm so embarrassed, and 283 00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:08,440 Speaker 2: she's like, this actually happened to me before. And she 284 00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:11,520 Speaker 2: said when she was growing up, she the only time 285 00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:15,560 Speaker 2: she ever had to masturbate was in the bathroom, and 286 00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:18,400 Speaker 2: sometimes she would do that and then go to the bathroom, 287 00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:22,840 Speaker 2: and so she built in some physical response that when 288 00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:25,480 Speaker 2: she would get off, it would make her feel like 289 00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:27,240 Speaker 2: she had to go to the bathroom after like years 290 00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:29,320 Speaker 2: of secretly doing in shame. So what I'm saying is, 291 00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:32,560 Speaker 2: don't live in shame. Don't hide in the bathroom when 292 00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:35,120 Speaker 2: you know, find your safe space. But yeah, and when 293 00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:35,560 Speaker 2: she told me. 294 00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 1: Don't put a don't put your lantern under a bushel. 295 00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:41,960 Speaker 1: Shit one place and jerk off another. 296 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:44,600 Speaker 2: That's the lesson.

So in twenty twelve, 407 00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:50,800 Speaker 2: there was this thing called the Great Googa Mooga Festival 408 00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:54,480 Speaker 2: in Brooklyn, New York. I remember Googa Mooga. So Kurt 409 00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:58,199 Speaker 2: and Kristen perform. It was the idea for nobody. If 410 00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:00,640 Speaker 2: anybody was there, you just your eyes just rolled out 411 00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:02,000 Speaker 2: of the back of your head and rolled down in 412 00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:06,240 Speaker 2: your hips and are somewhere behind you. Googa Mooga was 413 00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:08,760 Speaker 2: a food festival that was supposed to kind of be 414 00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:11,679 Speaker 2: like Bonaru, but it was gonna be all these food vendors. 415 00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:15,120 Speaker 2: They had bands like Hall of Oates, they had les Zeppelin, 416 00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:18,120 Speaker 2: the lesbian led Zeppelin cover band who Rocks. They had 417 00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:20,800 Speaker 2: the Roots, They had Hall and Oates, all the other bands. 418 00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:23,760 Speaker 2: But they had comedians. They had Paton Oswald, they had 419 00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:27,560 Speaker 2: Anthony Bourdain was there, but Kurt and Kristien were supposed 420 00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:31,760 Speaker 2: to perform there, and they ran. The lines were so 421 00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:34,199 Speaker 2: long that for two hundred and fifty dollars you were 422 00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:37,639 Speaker 2: supposed to get unlimited food and booze, And everybody I 423 00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:41,000 Speaker 2: know was like, that is a crazy amount of money 424 00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:42,600 Speaker 2: for the food we can already buy in the city, 425 00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:45,320 Speaker 2: in our neighborhood. And then people waited in line like 426 00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:48,159 Speaker 2: two hours for a hamburger. Kurt and I were so 427 00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:51,080 Speaker 2: hungry at some point that we waited in line. They 428 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:53,800 Speaker 2: ran out of Hamburger, so they just gave us ketchup 429 00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:57,159 Speaker 2: packets and hamburger buns, and we just ate ketchup sandwiches. 430 00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:01,399 Speaker 2: So the reason I bring this up is I was 431 00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:03,159 Speaker 2: doing a little research on Google Muga because it was 432 00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:05,560 Speaker 2: such a disaster. And I found that the Guardian wrote 433 00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:10,400 Speaker 2: an article by Brian Breaker and there are a couple 434 00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:13,440 Speaker 2: names in it. So I'm just going to read this 435 00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:16,960 Speaker 2: little piece with very little shade. Thousands of event goers 436 00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:19,320 Speaker 2: were forced to wait in epically long lines to ball 437 00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:23,480 Speaker 2: small plates of local delicacies. Drink lines were even longer, 438 00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:26,240 Speaker 2: and the special ticketing system to purchase select beer and 439 00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:31,040 Speaker 2: wine broke down completely all day Saturday. Quote. I thought 440 00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:33,040 Speaker 2: I was going to be a music and food place, 441 00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:35,240 Speaker 2: and I waited over an hour for a burger, complained 442 00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:40,040 Speaker 2: John Weissberg, who came from Brooklyn. It's poorly managed. Quote 443 00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:44,119 Speaker 2: Why would you do this elitist shit? Ask comedian Kristin 444 00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:47,200 Speaker 2: Shall in a half mock outrage. Quote. A friend of 445 00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:49,159 Speaker 2: mine told me he was going to Google Muga and 446 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:51,320 Speaker 2: that he couldn't see my show because it's in rich 447 00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:53,920 Speaker 2: Googa Muga meeting the two hundred and fifty dollars seat. 448 00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:58,000 Speaker 2: Then she and her comedy partner Kurt Brownoler performed in 449 00:24:58,160 --> 00:25:01,440 Speaker 2: Extra Muga the VIP area, which you guys gave me 450 00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:03,200 Speaker 2: a plus one and I went to at the time. 451 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:07,959 Speaker 2: Extra Mooga twenty twelve Scottie was not a VIP. Let 452 00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:11,280 Speaker 2: me tell you. Both said they loved the event and 453 00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:13,800 Speaker 2: have no problem. This is you, Kurt. You loved the 454 00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:16,359 Speaker 2: event and have no problem with people paying extra for 455 00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:18,760 Speaker 2: something more. But it made no sense to hold a 456 00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:21,440 Speaker 2: festival and then deny people access to half of it. 457 00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:28,280 Speaker 2: Brown Oler joked, this is a class war. You were 458 00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:33,600 Speaker 2: letting them have it. Back then it was wild. But 459 00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:36,639 Speaker 2: the winner of the whole thing was this The our 460 00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:39,960 Speaker 2: friends Dan Klein and Kelly Hudson and I think Edmund 461 00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:43,920 Speaker 2: Hawkins worked on it, and this was amazing. They heard 462 00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:47,000 Speaker 2: about this festival, these these these three or four comedians, 463 00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:49,000 Speaker 2: I think Arthur was a part of it too, and 464 00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:52,800 Speaker 2: they made fake menus. They printed fake menus for like 465 00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:55,359 Speaker 2: fake restaurants and handed them out to all the people 466 00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:57,600 Speaker 2: who paid all this money for the food festival. And 467 00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:01,560 Speaker 2: they wrote a book later called fuds or Foods f 468 00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:04,400 Speaker 2: U d S and Mario Tally wrote the intro, which 469 00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:07,480 Speaker 2: is crazy. Yes, but they handed this thing out and 470 00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:09,359 Speaker 2: it wasn't a joke. So all, like, I don't know 471 00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:11,360 Speaker 2: ten thousand people that were there, they probably handed out 472 00:26:11,359 --> 00:26:13,920 Speaker 2: a thousand menus and they had things like it was 473 00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:17,040 Speaker 2: all fake food. Do you remember this? It was so funny. 474 00:26:17,080 --> 00:26:17,720 Speaker 2: It was so funny. 475 00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:19,879 Speaker 1: I didn't get one in hand, but I saw it 476 00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:21,680 Speaker 1: posted online afterwards. 477 00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:24,360 Speaker 2: It was incredible, and it had stuff like round eye 478 00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:28,000 Speaker 2: flank stringers with Yankee poisoned marin Ea and fuzzy rice curds, 479 00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:34,080 Speaker 2: Mini brock coddles with Maloney's yam clippings, leafy sage dumpings, 480 00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:38,320 Speaker 2: shitty chicken spank with cinnamon garlic dirt and dimpled with 481 00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:44,680 Speaker 2: freshwater whale tits, and the caught classic, the Bill Clinton sandwich. 482 00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:48,560 Speaker 2: It was they just handed out like endless. It was incredible. 483 00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:50,800 Speaker 2: And so you see all these foodies and these snobs. 484 00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:54,160 Speaker 2: This is like peak foodie and everybody's just walking away 485 00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:57,119 Speaker 2: with these things being like Yankee poisoned Marinara and fuzzy 486 00:26:57,200 --> 00:27:04,040 Speaker 2: rice curds, side of Maloney's tickling shrimp. Ooh, it's so. 487 00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:06,200 Speaker 2: It was so good, so well written. 488 00:27:06,400 --> 00:27:09,440 Speaker 1: It looked exactly like a menu, exactly like something you 489 00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:13,680 Speaker 1: could order, and it also made it just made Google 490 00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:14,720 Speaker 1: Moga that much more. 491 00:27:14,800 --> 00:27:17,280 Speaker 2: Muga did one more year of it, and then it 492 00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:20,240 Speaker 2: didn't happen.

Yeah, came to both 517 00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:03,040 Speaker 2: the Indianapolis Show and our Brooklyn show. She's an illustrator 518 00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:05,440 Speaker 2: for kids books. She has two incredible books out, The 519 00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:09,600 Speaker 2: Dirt Book and and the Bullfrogs Sing, and she drew 520 00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:12,400 Speaker 2: something for Olive and overall now we have an illustrator 521 00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:15,040 Speaker 2: in the in the crew, and we couldn't loved Kate Moore. 522 00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:19,560 Speaker 1: It's so great for parents out there. The Dirt Book, 523 00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:22,479 Speaker 1: both the books are great. Olive has really been excited 524 00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:26,640 Speaker 1: about the Dirt Book. And it is a book that 525 00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:29,560 Speaker 1: you you know, you lift it up, so it's not 526 00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:33,920 Speaker 1: your it's not landscape. It's it's a portrait mode, but 527 00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:36,400 Speaker 1: you're literally like it's vertical, so it's really it's like 528 00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:39,680 Speaker 1: you're going down into the dirt. And every two pages 529 00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:44,560 Speaker 1: is this big, beautiful single piece that goes across the spine, 530 00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:48,560 Speaker 1: and each one is a different poem about a specific 531 00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:52,480 Speaker 1: animal who lives in the dirt. And Olive loves tortoises 532 00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:55,640 Speaker 1: and turtles, and so there's a gopher tortoise there. And 533 00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:58,280 Speaker 1: I took a video because Kate gave me the book 534 00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:01,200 Speaker 1: as a present for Olive at our Brooklyn show, which 535 00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:03,560 Speaker 1: was so nice of her. Took a video of Olive 536 00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:06,760 Speaker 1: just like losing her mind about this gopher tortoise, and 537 00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:11,520 Speaker 1: so then Kate drew this amazing piece of Olive on 538 00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:14,800 Speaker 1: a leaf and it just says Olive is like is 539 00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:18,840 Speaker 1: going underground to the tortoise and it's like her and 540 00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:20,320 Speaker 1: there's a big gopher tortoise. 541 00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:23,160 Speaker 2: I can't It's so beautiful.

Well, where 558 00:31:14,480 --> 00:31:15,400 Speaker 1: in Jakarta do you stay? 559 00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:22,360 Speaker 2: Coconuts? I gotta go, I gotta go. This title is great. 560 00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:30,800 Speaker 1: Rain drops keep falling on one car, intense precipitation shaft 561 00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:36,280 Speaker 1: baffles Indonesians. WHOA yeah, I will post the video and 562 00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:44,240 Speaker 1: the photo. It is fascinating and it's genuinely a a 563 00:31:44,520 --> 00:31:47,840 Speaker 1: Charlie Brown moment for this car. It's just rest car. 564 00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:51,640 Speaker 2: It's rain. It's a it's rain only on one car. 565 00:31:54,760 --> 00:31:55,800 Speaker 2: It is so funny. 566 00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:58,680 Speaker 1: It is just a column of rain that is falling 567 00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:01,480 Speaker 1: only on one car. And the guy like, who's shooting it? 568 00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:03,760 Speaker 1: He's just like a maze. And then he's you know, 569 00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:06,440 Speaker 1: he's shooting around and he shows you like there's nothing 570 00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:10,840 Speaker 1: pouring water down. It's not like a a a hose 571 00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:13,800 Speaker 1: being shot from behind a tree or anything. It's in 572 00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:15,080 Speaker 1: an open parking lot. 573 00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:17,760 Speaker 2: Always no guy, just a hole in this guy. We 574 00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:22,280 Speaker 2: get a female or they then meteorologist on bananas. I 575 00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:25,680 Speaker 2: would love to have a personable meteorologist on. That would 576 00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:29,480 Speaker 2: be great. Say hey to us. We'll talk about it. 577 00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:33,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, please. It's not every day that we see rain 578 00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:35,840 Speaker 1: falling on an area so small that it fits just 579 00:32:35,960 --> 00:32:39,440 Speaker 1: a single car. But the phenomenon was captured in a 580 00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:42,360 Speaker 1: video that has gone viral in Indonesia recently. A video 581 00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:46,239 Speaker 1: taken in Sickerang, West job on August thirty first, at 582 00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:51,720 Speaker 1: around noon by Instagram user at You're You're Yana Rihanna 583 00:32:52,360 --> 00:32:56,480 Speaker 1: r yep, it shows what looks like intense rain falling 584 00:32:56,520 --> 00:33:03,160 Speaker 1: on a single Toyota MPV most most palace vlayerous vehicle or. 585 00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:09,800 Speaker 2: Most precipitation vehicle like precipitation. 586 00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:13,400 Speaker 1: Other cars in the outdoor parking lot of a hotel 587 00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:16,560 Speaker 1: were untouched by the small precipitation shaft, though the vehicles 588 00:33:16,560 --> 00:33:18,960 Speaker 1: in the ground appeared to be wet from an earlier rainfall. 589 00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:20,200 Speaker 2: Quote. 590 00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:21,880 Speaker 1: I thought somebody might have been spraying water, but there 591 00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:23,480 Speaker 1: was no one else at the parking lot of the time, 592 00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:25,960 Speaker 1: he wrote in the caption quote, Hopefully this is a 593 00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:28,200 Speaker 1: sign of good things to come in the days ahead. 594 00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:32,480 Speaker 1: Many commenters praise God, believing that the phenomenon showcase divine 595 00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:35,440 Speaker 1: might and had apparently chosen that car to be some 596 00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:40,440 Speaker 1: sort of special chosen one. The Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics 597 00:33:40,520 --> 00:33:45,080 Speaker 1: Agency BMKG, however, has yet to confirm the authenticity of 598 00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:47,440 Speaker 1: the video. The agency said that such a small but 599 00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:51,840 Speaker 1: intense localized rain is improbable as precipitation shafts usually cover 600 00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:56,719 Speaker 1: large areas, but not impossible. The possibility of it happening 601 00:33:56,840 --> 00:33:59,200 Speaker 1: is very small. This is because the diameter of a 602 00:33:59,320 --> 00:34:03,080 Speaker 1: cumulone nimbus cloud, which produces range, generally stretches to dozens 603 00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:07,240 Speaker 1: or hundreds of kilometers. Oh At any rate, BMKG did 604 00:34:07,360 --> 00:34:11,480 Speaker 1: confirm that rain indeed did fall in sick a Rag 605 00:34:11,640 --> 00:34:14,360 Speaker 1: at noon on October thirty first, which was when this was. 606 00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:19,960 Speaker 2: Told you that's real. Nothing's improbable anymore. It happened. Get 607 00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:23,520 Speaker 2: over it as beautiful as what it is. 608 00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:24,040 Speaker 3: It is. 609 00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:26,759 Speaker 2: I love it. I love it so much. 610 00:34:27,160 --> 00:34:30,200 Speaker 1: I love that so I I you know, when I camped, 611 00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:32,279 Speaker 1: I lived in the woods by myself for a month 612 00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:35,080 Speaker 1: after graduating college. I've talked a little bit about it 613 00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:38,719 Speaker 1: here on the podcast, and you know, I was just 614 00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:42,680 Speaker 1: you know, I was twenty twenty two years old, just graduated. 615 00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:46,719 Speaker 1: I was a very rb a very urban person at 616 00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:49,320 Speaker 1: that point, had been living in Baltimore for like four years. 617 00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:51,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, was obsessed with this. 618 00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:54,320 Speaker 1: Like kind of very urban experience, just getting like lost 619 00:34:54,440 --> 00:34:59,840 Speaker 1: in the city. But I am a hippie dippydoodle at heart, 620 00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:04,680 Speaker 1: and so and I wanted to also as a philosophy major. 621 00:35:04,719 --> 00:35:06,399 Speaker 1: So I was like, I need to work because I've 622 00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:09,520 Speaker 1: been dating the same woman for four years in college, 623 00:35:09,560 --> 00:35:11,400 Speaker 1: and I was like, I need to be alone, and 624 00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:15,759 Speaker 1: so this was my plan to be alone. Honestly, I 625 00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:17,600 Speaker 1: thought we were going to break up when we left college, 626 00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:19,960 Speaker 1: and then she didn't and I never said that, and 627 00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:22,440 Speaker 1: so she of course didn't know that, and then just 628 00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:24,360 Speaker 1: assumed we were going to continue to date because I 629 00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:26,600 Speaker 1: never said anything like. 630 00:35:26,920 --> 00:35:30,760 Speaker 2: Weeks, you know, a few months, Yeah, seven more years, 631 00:35:30,920 --> 00:35:31,120 Speaker 2: you know. 632 00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:34,680 Speaker 1: Just seven more years or no, eight more years after 633 00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:38,840 Speaker 1: nine more years. After that, it lasted a lot of years, 634 00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:42,640 Speaker 1: thirteen years. But so I went into the woods and 635 00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:47,520 Speaker 1: just really into weird stuff at the time, uh, and 636 00:35:47,880 --> 00:35:50,160 Speaker 1: decided I was going to like build my own structure 637 00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:55,520 Speaker 1: and live in my own structure. And I get up there, 638 00:35:55,640 --> 00:35:58,480 Speaker 1: I set up my tent, literally my first tent I've 639 00:35:58,520 --> 00:36:02,080 Speaker 1: ever owned, literally into the first sleeping. 640 00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:04,440 Speaker 2: Bag I've ever owned, tool experience, and. 641 00:36:05,640 --> 00:36:08,640 Speaker 1: I get in there the first day, watch the sunset, 642 00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:12,600 Speaker 1: realize it's scary at night in the woods by yourself. Yes, 643 00:36:13,239 --> 00:36:15,320 Speaker 1: I go to bed early because I'm just too freaked 644 00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:18,839 Speaker 1: out to sip around the fire. And then it starts raining. 645 00:36:20,239 --> 00:36:26,640 Speaker 1: And then it rains every single day. Out of the 646 00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:30,200 Speaker 1: thirty days I was there, it rained twenty seven days. 647 00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:32,160 Speaker 1: And I did not realize that the spot I had 648 00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:36,520 Speaker 1: chose was like a like like a rain, like a 649 00:36:36,680 --> 00:36:40,480 Speaker 1: cloud magnet or something like that. And June is the 650 00:36:40,560 --> 00:36:43,000 Speaker 1: worst of the months there in upstate New York. So 651 00:36:43,040 --> 00:36:48,000 Speaker 1: it was literally every single day. It was so deeply, 652 00:36:48,239 --> 00:36:52,320 Speaker 1: deeply depressing. But at this point in my life, I 653 00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:55,640 Speaker 1: love the rain. Now I'm now come full circle. I 654 00:36:55,760 --> 00:36:58,719 Speaker 1: can deal with the rain.

And do you know 681 00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:12,640 Speaker 2: they sell fitbits and targets, So we all bought a midwalk. 682 00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:12,480 Speaker 1: You know. 683 00:38:12,560 --> 00:38:14,640 Speaker 2: So season four we're all wearing fitbits, We're getting ten 684 00:38:14,680 --> 00:38:18,040 Speaker 2: thousand steps, we're doing two laps around Target. We used 685 00:38:18,080 --> 00:38:20,560 Speaker 2: to know. I used to go so often because it usually, 686 00:38:20,719 --> 00:38:22,719 Speaker 2: like for workaholics, I would be on for about twenty 687 00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:26,320 Speaker 2: two weeks, sometimes longer, so I would see full seasonal 688 00:38:26,440 --> 00:38:28,680 Speaker 2: changes and sales come and go. I would see the 689 00:38:28,800 --> 00:38:32,600 Speaker 2: price of towels go from eleven ninety nine down to 690 00:38:32,640 --> 00:38:34,560 Speaker 2: seven ninety nine, down to four ninety nine, and that's 691 00:38:34,600 --> 00:38:38,879 Speaker 2: what I'm buying white stag turtlenecks. You know, they start 692 00:38:38,920 --> 00:38:40,799 Speaker 2: at twenty four then you get them for eleven bucks 693 00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:43,920 Speaker 2: in the summer. So I was walking over there with 694 00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:46,719 Speaker 2: Sean and Tom, two of the writers, and it was 695 00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:48,600 Speaker 2: middle of the day, I guess the other writers were 696 00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:52,040 Speaker 2: busy writing or doing whatever. And we see all these 697 00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:54,080 Speaker 2: bags and trash in the air on the other side 698 00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:56,680 Speaker 2: of target, like just on the other side, and they're like, 699 00:38:56,800 --> 00:38:59,279 Speaker 2: that's weird. I was like, it's probably a tornado, and 700 00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:01,000 Speaker 2: they were like ha ho. And then we just get 701 00:39:01,120 --> 00:39:04,040 Speaker 2: hit by this gust of wind that was so violent 702 00:39:04,160 --> 00:39:06,160 Speaker 2: that we were in the middle of like a mini tornado, 703 00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:08,520 Speaker 2: and so we just splinter off and run through the 704 00:39:08,560 --> 00:39:11,239 Speaker 2: parking lot and like our eyes are closed because we 705 00:39:11,320 --> 00:39:13,399 Speaker 2: were getting hit by a micro And I think they're 706 00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:17,719 Speaker 2: called haboobs. I think it's called a haboob. A dust 707 00:39:17,760 --> 00:39:20,239 Speaker 2: devil too, a dust devil, and so that it hit 708 00:39:20,360 --> 00:39:22,000 Speaker 2: us in the parking lot. But we were just like 709 00:39:22,160 --> 00:39:24,520 Speaker 2: walking over to Target to get an extra Starbucks and 710 00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:28,400 Speaker 2: suddenly I'm like in twister, like screaming, covering my ears, 711 00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:30,800 Speaker 2: and then it goes away and then you're just standing 712 00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:33,279 Speaker 2: there like hair standing up and you just have to 713 00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:37,239 Speaker 2: act cool, and so we just kept on walking.

NASCAR's flim Flamman. Con artists and 746 00:41:12,360 --> 00:41:15,239 Speaker 2: swindlers are nothing new to the craze crazy world of 747 00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:17,720 Speaker 2: auto racing. Indeed, it's been said that just to survive 748 00:41:17,880 --> 00:41:20,360 Speaker 2: in professional racing, you might need a little hustle in 749 00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:23,680 Speaker 2: your personal skill set, but just to survive, just to survive. 750 00:41:23,840 --> 00:41:26,800 Speaker 2: Think about it. But L. W. Wright, if that was 751 00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:29,600 Speaker 2: even his real name, and you can bet it wasn't, 752 00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:33,160 Speaker 2: took the game to a whole new level without a 753 00:41:33,239 --> 00:41:36,200 Speaker 2: dime of his own and using only his smooth tongue. 754 00:41:36,320 --> 00:41:41,960 Speaker 2: In nineteen eighty two, he finagled Mr Tongue, that smooth LW. 755 00:41:42,160 --> 00:41:44,560 Speaker 2: Wright tongue. In nineteen eighty two, he finagled his way 756 00:41:44,600 --> 00:41:47,279 Speaker 2: into a car race, a race team, and one of 757 00:41:47,400 --> 00:41:50,160 Speaker 2: the top races in the Winston Cup schedule, the Winston 758 00:41:50,239 --> 00:41:54,880 Speaker 2: five hundred in Talladega, Alabama, And then, like the famous 759 00:41:54,880 --> 00:41:59,080 Speaker 2: skyjacker D. B. Cooper, he vanished into thin air. Sorry 760 00:41:59,200 --> 00:42:01,480 Speaker 2: did you say he No, he did not win, but 761 00:42:01,600 --> 00:42:03,960 Speaker 2: he raced in this race. He did race, Okay, he 762 00:42:03,960 --> 00:42:06,920 Speaker 2: got into the race. To make a long story short, somehow, 763 00:42:06,960 --> 00:42:10,520 Speaker 2: in April nineteen eighteen, Wright managed to persuade Bernie Terrell, 764 00:42:10,600 --> 00:42:12,880 Speaker 2: a pr man on Music Row in Nashville, to advance 765 00:42:12,960 --> 00:42:16,279 Speaker 2: him thirty thousand dollars plus seven thousand in expenses to 766 00:42:16,400 --> 00:42:19,480 Speaker 2: fund his alleged race team, music City Racing. 767 00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:23,520 Speaker 1: I mean what a name, yep, I'm in I'm interested 768 00:42:23,560 --> 00:42:25,239 Speaker 1: in watching music city racing. 769 00:42:25,239 --> 00:42:28,239 Speaker 2: Right claimed The team was sponsored by country musician Merle 770 00:42:28,320 --> 00:42:31,439 Speaker 2: Haggard and TG Sheppard, but they had never even heard 771 00:42:31,440 --> 00:42:34,719 Speaker 2: of him, was later learned. With Terrell's funds in hand, 772 00:42:34,920 --> 00:42:37,960 Speaker 2: Wright purchased a nineteen eighty one Monte Carlo Winston Cup 773 00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:40,480 Speaker 2: car from a local racer, Sterling Martin he's a real 774 00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:43,360 Speaker 2: NASCAR racer for twenty thousand bucks. It was black and 775 00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:45,120 Speaker 2: gold and bore the number thirty four. 776 00:42:45,680 --> 00:42:50,920 Speaker 1: Okay, okay, And do numbers our numbers like attached to nascars? 777 00:42:51,080 --> 00:42:53,520 Speaker 2: Yes, so okay, if you if you're a big fan 778 00:42:53,640 --> 00:42:57,800 Speaker 2: of certain racers like Sirt God who is Dale Dale Earnhardt? 779 00:42:57,920 --> 00:43:01,000 Speaker 2: The Dale and Ard Junior was like the Budweiser car 780 00:43:01,120 --> 00:43:02,400 Speaker 2: for a long time. I think I don't know, he 781 00:43:02,480 --> 00:43:04,200 Speaker 2: was the number eight car something, so you cheer for 782 00:43:04,280 --> 00:43:06,080 Speaker 2: like I think Jeff Gordon was the twenty four car 783 00:43:06,239 --> 00:43:08,080 Speaker 2: something like that. And so yeah, it's kind of like 784 00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:10,520 Speaker 2: a way just to keep track. And also when you're 785 00:43:10,680 --> 00:43:13,120 Speaker 2: at the event, they have on the monitors, they don't 786 00:43:13,120 --> 00:43:14,960 Speaker 2: have the racers name, they just have the position of 787 00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:16,879 Speaker 2: the cars by number. Okay. 788 00:43:17,200 --> 00:43:19,799 Speaker 1: But but my question is is like will that car 789 00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:23,080 Speaker 1: always that that car's number needs to be like bought 790 00:43:23,200 --> 00:43:24,640 Speaker 1: and sold by people? 791 00:43:24,840 --> 00:43:28,399 Speaker 2: Right? Then? Okay, okay? Right, Richard Petty was always number 792 00:43:28,440 --> 00:43:32,440 Speaker 2: forty three for stp Sokay. Marlo would later say that 793 00:43:32,560 --> 00:43:35,080 Speaker 2: right story did not add up, and despite his claims 794 00:43:35,120 --> 00:43:38,120 Speaker 2: of being an experienced driver with forty three Bush Series starts, 795 00:43:38,239 --> 00:43:41,000 Speaker 2: right seemed lost at the racetrack and didn't know the ropes. 796 00:43:41,080 --> 00:43:44,240 Speaker 2: This is when it gets so great. Still, Right somehow 797 00:43:44,360 --> 00:43:47,120 Speaker 2: managed to qualify the Monte Carlo at Talladega with a 798 00:43:47,200 --> 00:43:49,880 Speaker 2: speed of more than one hundred and eighty seven miles 799 00:43:49,920 --> 00:43:53,759 Speaker 2: an hour. Wow. Wow. He crashed on his second qualifying lap, 800 00:43:53,880 --> 00:43:58,719 Speaker 2: doing significant damage to the car. Oh now, Marlin and 801 00:43:58,840 --> 00:44:00,840 Speaker 2: the crew patched them on call it back together for 802 00:44:00,880 --> 00:44:04,080 Speaker 2: the race, which Wright started in thirty six position. And 803 00:44:04,160 --> 00:44:07,440 Speaker 2: thanks to NASCAR Channel on YouTube, you can watch Wright's 804 00:44:07,760 --> 00:44:11,320 Speaker 2: entire NASCAR career and the original ESPN telecast of the 805 00:44:11,560 --> 00:44:15,000 Speaker 2: nineteen eighty two Winston five hundred on YouTube, so you 806 00:44:15,080 --> 00:44:18,480 Speaker 2: can actually watch this con artist do this. Right is 807 00:44:18,560 --> 00:44:21,080 Speaker 2: mentioned only barely and briefly before he was quickly lapped 808 00:44:21,120 --> 00:44:24,279 Speaker 2: by the field and then black flagged. Officially credited with 809 00:44:24,400 --> 00:44:27,280 Speaker 2: thirteen laps and finished in thirty ninth place. He parked 810 00:44:27,280 --> 00:44:31,000 Speaker 2: the car, abandoned it in the garage area, and promptly disappeared, 811 00:44:31,600 --> 00:44:36,279 Speaker 2: leaving a wake of bounce checks. Is this insane? Leaving 812 00:44:36,640 --> 00:44:40,520 Speaker 2: a wake of bounce checks behind him? Victims included NASCAR, 813 00:44:40,560 --> 00:44:43,239 Speaker 2: which was stung for the license and entry fees, tire 814 00:44:43,280 --> 00:44:46,279 Speaker 2: supplier Goodyear, along with everyone else who was unfortunate enough 815 00:44:46,320 --> 00:44:49,960 Speaker 2: to do business with him. NASCAR swore out a warrant 816 00:44:50,080 --> 00:44:52,840 Speaker 2: for rights arrest, and the pr man Terrell hired a 817 00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:55,439 Speaker 2: private detective to hunt him down.

This one is not NASCAR related. I had 842 00:46:07,719 --> 00:46:12,480 Speaker 2: this buddy Neil. Neil lived in Mississippi, and his thing 843 00:46:12,800 --> 00:46:15,400 Speaker 2: when he graduated from high school, he would go to 844 00:46:15,520 --> 00:46:18,839 Speaker 2: these big SEC football college football games and he would 845 00:46:18,880 --> 00:46:20,880 Speaker 2: get drunk and he liked to sneak on the field. 846 00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:23,279 Speaker 2: He would sneak on the field all the time. So 847 00:46:23,680 --> 00:46:27,560 Speaker 2: and at what kind of fields college football fields? So 848 00:46:27,760 --> 00:46:30,240 Speaker 2: you know, a big college football field, it can seat 849 00:46:30,320 --> 00:46:33,400 Speaker 2: sixty thousand to one hundred thousand people. Crazy, insane, But 850 00:46:34,200 --> 00:46:36,000 Speaker 2: in you know, this would have been like late nineties, 851 00:46:36,040 --> 00:46:38,160 Speaker 2: only two thousands, so he would get bombed. He'd pregame 852 00:46:38,200 --> 00:46:39,880 Speaker 2: with all his buddies and then he would like sneak 853 00:46:39,920 --> 00:46:42,320 Speaker 2: over fence and he'd put on like a field crew jacket. 854 00:46:42,520 --> 00:46:44,480 Speaker 2: And then one time he got on a golf cart 855 00:46:44,560 --> 00:46:46,000 Speaker 2: and he just drove it across the middle of the 856 00:46:46,040 --> 00:46:47,840 Speaker 2: field before the game and parked in the middle and 857 00:46:47,880 --> 00:46:50,200 Speaker 2: wave to his friends in the stands and just drove 858 00:46:50,239 --> 00:46:52,560 Speaker 2: it off. But he did do this all the time, 859 00:46:53,440 --> 00:46:55,360 Speaker 2: so I was like laughing so hard when he was 860 00:46:55,400 --> 00:46:57,080 Speaker 2: telling me this that I was like, well, it was 861 00:46:57,120 --> 00:47:00,680 Speaker 2: your best one. And he said. He goes to the 862 00:47:01,480 --> 00:47:06,120 Speaker 2: SEC championship game in like nineteen ninety seven. That's Southeastern Conference, 863 00:47:06,160 --> 00:47:09,359 Speaker 2: so that's like Alabama, Tennessee, all those schools back, okay, 864 00:47:10,880 --> 00:47:13,520 Speaker 2: and he gets drunk and every he wants to go 865 00:47:13,640 --> 00:47:15,399 Speaker 2: into the seats and all his friends want to keep 866 00:47:15,440 --> 00:47:18,800 Speaker 2: drinking out in the parking lot, and so he sneaks 867 00:47:18,880 --> 00:47:21,040 Speaker 2: in and he sneaks on the field. And this is 868 00:47:21,080 --> 00:47:25,120 Speaker 2: the championship game. It's between Tennessee and Auburn. Two very 869 00:47:25,480 --> 00:47:27,880 Speaker 2: you know, Auburn especially is a big football powerhouse. But 870 00:47:28,000 --> 00:47:32,759 Speaker 2: Tennessee had Peyton manning the famous quarterback Gate Manning was 871 00:47:32,840 --> 00:47:37,600 Speaker 2: their quarterback senior year. Championship game, Neil sneaks on the field, 872 00:47:37,640 --> 00:47:40,399 Speaker 2: puts on a jacket. He's standing there. Auburn goes out 873 00:47:40,440 --> 00:47:42,680 Speaker 2: to this crazy lead. So he stays on the Tennessee 874 00:47:42,800 --> 00:47:45,879 Speaker 2: sideline during the whole start of the game. The game. 875 00:47:45,960 --> 00:47:47,359 Speaker 2: Oh my god, he's just got a team. 876 00:47:47,440 --> 00:47:50,399 Speaker 1: So he like finds a jacket somewhere, like our jack 877 00:47:50,480 --> 00:47:52,240 Speaker 1: is just willing nilly on football field. 878 00:47:52,360 --> 00:47:54,799 Speaker 2: Are like team. Like you know, when you look at 879 00:47:54,800 --> 00:47:56,879 Speaker 2: the benches during a football game, there's like all kinds 880 00:47:56,880 --> 00:47:59,480 Speaker 2: of gear. There's like hats, and there's like warm ups 881 00:47:59,520 --> 00:48:01,160 Speaker 2: and stuff. He would kind of go on. He was 882 00:48:01,280 --> 00:48:03,120 Speaker 2: just like an average looking white dude. So I'm sure 883 00:48:03,120 --> 00:48:04,880 Speaker 2: he use that to his advantage. He'd always have like 884 00:48:04,920 --> 00:48:07,440 Speaker 2: a ball cap on, and he would just hop the 885 00:48:07,520 --> 00:48:09,800 Speaker 2: fence or sneak in or talk his way in drunkenly. 886 00:48:10,040 --> 00:48:12,799 Speaker 2: And he's standing there and so so Auburn goes up 887 00:48:12,920 --> 00:48:16,240 Speaker 2: thirteen to seven in the first quarter. Tennessee was probably 888 00:48:16,320 --> 00:48:19,279 Speaker 2: favored to win. Great team. He's standing there next to 889 00:48:19,360 --> 00:48:22,600 Speaker 2: Peyton Manning, and he says he leaned back and slapped 890 00:48:22,600 --> 00:48:25,080 Speaker 2: Peyton Manning's ass. As hard as he possibly could, just 891 00:48:25,320 --> 00:48:28,839 Speaker 2: open like right over his just yelled at him, get 892 00:48:28,880 --> 00:48:31,040 Speaker 2: your head in the game. And he said, Peyton, who 893 00:48:31,160 --> 00:48:33,319 Speaker 2: was I don't know, twenty years old, twenty one years 894 00:48:33,320 --> 00:48:36,399 Speaker 2: old like a college student, turns to him and goes, oh, 895 00:48:36,680 --> 00:48:40,920 Speaker 2: okay man, okay man, take it easy, goes back out there. 896 00:48:41,160 --> 00:48:44,840 Speaker 2: Tennessee wins the game by one point. Peyton Manning was 897 00:48:44,880 --> 00:48:48,439 Speaker 2: the MVP of the game. Tennessee won the championship. But yeah, 898 00:48:48,520 --> 00:48:50,000 Speaker 2: Neil just stood there and did He was like, I 899 00:48:50,040 --> 00:48:52,279 Speaker 2: couldn't help myself. And Neil wasn't a big guy who's 900 00:48:52,280 --> 00:48:55,719 Speaker 2: like five nine five ten sold average height guy, and 901 00:48:55,880 --> 00:48:58,239 Speaker 2: Peyton's tall, Peyton probably like six y four whatever, and 902 00:48:58,320 --> 00:49:00,400 Speaker 2: he just he say, reared back and he knew who 903 00:49:00,400 --> 00:49:03,880 Speaker 2: it was too, and just slapped as far as possible. 904 00:49:04,560 --> 00:49:08,839 Speaker 2: But you know, in football world, is like a congratulations, hey, 905 00:49:09,000 --> 00:49:10,520 Speaker 2: get your head in the game. And he said, just 906 00:49:10,560 --> 00:49:12,880 Speaker 2: screamed at him like a drunk does, and it you know, 907 00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:14,919 Speaker 2: it might have changed the tide. It might have turned 908 00:49:14,960 --> 00:49:18,920 Speaker 2: the tide of Tennessee's fates that day in the SEC Championship. 909 00:49:19,000 --> 00:49:23,640 Speaker 2: But god, I think about that all the time.
