Speaker 1: Welcome to Stuff to Blow Your Mind production of My
Speaker 1: Heart Radio. Hey, are you welcome to do Stuff to
Speaker 1: Blow Your Mind listener mail. My name is Robert lamp
Speaker 1: and I'm Joe McCormick, and it's Monday, the day of
Speaker 1: the week that we usually read back messages that you
Speaker 1: have sent into the show account. By the way, if
Speaker 1: you've never written in and you'd like to get in
Speaker 1: touch to share something interesting or with feedback on a
Speaker 1: recent episode, you can always contact us at contact at
Speaker 1: stuff to Blow your Mind dot com. Let's see Robney
Speaker 1: business before we jump right in on these messages about throwing,
Speaker 1: no business, Let's get right down to the business of
Speaker 1: listener mail. Okay, So this is in response to our
Speaker 1: series on throwing behavior, first in animals, and then we
Speaker 1: eventually talked about throwing in humans. There were a couple
Speaker 1: of emails from listeners Nobile and Marley on the subject
Speaker 1: of octopus throwing. Not octopus is throwing, but octopus is
Speaker 1: being thrown. So first, Marley writes, Hi, Joe and Robert,
Speaker 1: I've been an avid listener since I was in high
Speaker 1: school and your episodes on animals throwing objects was extremely
Speaker 1: interesting to me. It just so happens that I saw
Speaker 1: this video on my Reddit feed come up. It appears
Speaker 1: as if a seal or sea lion throws an octopus
Speaker 1: at a kayaking bystander, and then Marley includes a link
Speaker 1: to the video. He says, hope you had a great
Speaker 1: holiday season and I always look forward to more podcasts
Speaker 1: from you two when they appear in my feed. Sincerely,
Speaker 1: Marley uh Now Robinson's Nabile's message also addresses this. Should
Speaker 1: we save reaction until after we get through that part
Speaker 1: of the next one? Yeah, let's do them both first,
Speaker 1: Okay okay. Nabil also writes, Hi, rob and Joe. When
Speaker 1: I saw the title of the podcast animals throwing things
Speaker 1: appear in my podcast feed, one instance of this immediately
Speaker 1: came to mind. When you started a lengthy discussion about octopuses.
Speaker 1: I was sure this example would come up, but it
Speaker 1: was not mentioned. I was reminded of a video it's
Speaker 1: seen a few years ago which does involve an octopus,
Speaker 1: but as the throwe rather than the thrower. The animal
Speaker 1: doing the throwing is a seal. Why this video sticks
Speaker 1: with me is that the seal throws the octopus onto
Speaker 1: a human who was kayaking nearby, right onto his face.
Speaker 1: As far as I can remember, seals throw octopuses onto
Speaker 1: rocks to kill them before they eat them. The seal
Speaker 1: may have either mistaken the human and the kayak for
Speaker 1: some rocks, or just wanted to see if doing this
Speaker 1: would yield similar results. Seal of approval. I don't know
Speaker 1: if that's upon seal of approval for use of the
Speaker 1: scientific method. Now, Rob, did you did you watch this
Speaker 1: video of the the octopus slap on the kayaker? Yeah? Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's it's quite impressive footage obviously. Um for me anyway,
Speaker 1: it's kind of hard to really decide if what I'm
Speaker 1: looking at here is that it is a creature throwing
Speaker 1: an octopus or a creature intentionally throwing an octopus at
Speaker 1: a human. Um. You know, I think you would need
Speaker 1: more data before you could really figure out if they
Speaker 1: are throwing in general or throwing at Also, I can't
Speaker 1: quite tell from the video if the octopus fully leaves
Speaker 1: the seals mouth, if it is throwing the octopus at
Speaker 1: the kayaker, or just kind of whacking the kayaker with
Speaker 1: the octopus. Yeah, indeed, Um, yeah, I haven't looked particularly
Speaker 1: about seals and sea lions and when it comes to
Speaker 1: flinging prey, um, flinging prey. Maybe there's there's something to
Speaker 1: explore in the future episode, because I know there are
Speaker 1: examples of say, Orca doing this in the wild, and
Speaker 1: of course in captivity, Orca have been trying to fling
Speaker 1: human swimmers with the aid of their tails. Uh, they're
Speaker 1: not with their their mouths. Um. But I also seem
Speaker 1: to recall having a dog when I was younger that
Speaker 1: would do this with Um. These are like moles or
Speaker 1: shrews or something that it would hunt up and dig
Speaker 1: up in the yard, and then it would sort of
Speaker 1: play with them. And I recall, and this could be
Speaker 1: a false recollection, but I recall something like the flinging
Speaker 1: of the creature. Well, yeah, we'll get to some more
Speaker 1: emails in a bit about dogs flinging things. I again
Speaker 1: that that is a behavior I've observed in dogs, not
Speaker 1: with live animals, but with with like a you know,
Speaker 1: a puzzle box toy. You know, a toy that has
Speaker 1: treats inside of this animal is not alive anymore, it's
Speaker 1: pretty dead anyway. Going on with Nabile's message, uh, Nibile
Speaker 1: rights in similar animal on human with the use of
Speaker 1: other animals violence. I'm reminded of this story, which is
Speaker 1: more in the realm of animals dropping things rather than
Speaker 1: strictly throwing them. According to legend, the Greek playwright Escalus
Speaker 1: met a tragic death one day. An eagle that had
Speaker 1: caught a tortoise mistook Escalus's bald head for a shiny
Speaker 1: rock and accidentally killed the author by dropping the animal
Speaker 1: onto him. Apparently, it is normal for eagles to drop
Speaker 1: tortoises onto rocks to break open their hard shell and
Speaker 1: access the meat inside. Uh. Thanks for the tireless work
Speaker 1: that goes into these podcasts. I enjoy the variation of
Speaker 1: topics covered and the varying aspects that are given to them.
Speaker 1: Regards Nibile, Well, thank you, Nabile. Oh yeah, we we've
Speaker 1: talked about this story about Escalist before. To be clear
Speaker 1: to everybody else, I don't know how much UH credence
Speaker 1: historians generally put into that as like an event that
Speaker 1: actually happened as you know it. It probably is more
Speaker 1: likely a legend, but then again, who knows. I mean,
Speaker 1: it is true that certain predatory birds drop things from height,
Speaker 1: and we've talked about examples of that before. H yeah
Speaker 1: that the lamber guy are being one that drops bones,
Speaker 1: for example. But let's keep this bird train moving with
Speaker 1: another message. This one comes to us from Cheryl Cheryl Rides,
Speaker 1: Hello from New Zealand. I have just started episode two
Speaker 1: of your series on animal throwing, and once again I
Speaker 1: am amazed at how a concept that I've never really
Speaker 1: stopped to consider can be so in depth and interesting.
Speaker 1: This is my first time writing into any podcast, but
Speaker 1: I wanted to share my own animal throwing story. My
Speaker 1: parents were driving over Arthur's Pass in the South Island
Speaker 1: of New Zealand and stopped at a rest area to
Speaker 1: take a break, stretch their legs a little and look
Speaker 1: at the view. Kia our native mountain parrots frequent this area,
Speaker 1: and true to form, one quickly came over and started
Speaker 1: determinedly trying to remove the rubber seals from around the
Speaker 1: car windows. Yes, I've I've I've seen documentaries about these
Speaker 1: amazing birds before, and they're they're highly intelligent. They often
Speaker 1: factor into studies of of bird and or maybe individual studies,
Speaker 1: but larger considerations of bird intelligence and tool use, and
Speaker 1: they can get into a little bit of mischief with
Speaker 1: their their curiosity the rubber seals around the car windows.
Speaker 1: Do they also unscrew the hinges on your doors? I
Speaker 1: think I saw a video of one like messing up
Speaker 1: some windshield wiper. I mean, you know, they're curious, The're like,
Speaker 1: what is that there for? I should take it out
Speaker 1: to examine for brilliant Anyway, the um um cheryl continues here.
Speaker 1: My mother waved her arms to shoo it off, but
Speaker 1: it quickly came back when she stopped. After several repetitions
Speaker 1: of this, the bird appeared to become annoyed, flew down
Speaker 1: to the ground and picked up a stone and hurled
Speaker 1: it at my mother, laughing emoji. It only hit her
Speaker 1: on the ankle, and she was not hurt at all.
Speaker 1: It just makes for a funny story about what looks
Speaker 1: very much like retaliatory throwing behavior from an animal. That's interesting.
Speaker 1: Kia are my absolute favorite native bird and are one
Speaker 1: of the most intelligent bird species in the world. They
Speaker 1: are said to be similar to some primates and intelligence
Speaker 1: about the same as a four year old human child.
Speaker 1: While they certainly have a reputation for mischief and destruction
Speaker 1: of personal property, they are not generally aggressive towards people,
Speaker 1: and I have never heard of any other throwing stories.
Speaker 1: This does make me wonder where the bird learned it
Speaker 1: from and whether it was a one off Kia. According
Speaker 1: to New Zealand Department of Conservation website, have been known
Speaker 1: to turn on the tap at a local campground, to
Speaker 1: use tools to set off stoked traps in order to
Speaker 1: get at the eggs, and to have locked a mountaineer
Speaker 1: inside a toilet. One bird apparently learned that if it
Speaker 1: took a piece of firewood to a hiking hut every
Speaker 1: day and knocked on the door, it would receive a treat.
Speaker 1: Could one have learned to throw stones after seeing someone
Speaker 1: do it? I don't know, but it doesn't seem outside
Speaker 1: the bounds of possibility. However it came about, it wasn't
Speaker 1: successful in this instance because my mother still refused to
Speaker 1: let it dismantle the car. I hope you found this interesting.
Speaker 1: Keep up the good work. Your podcast often helps me
Speaker 1: to see things I thought of his quite mundane in
Speaker 1: a new and interesting light, and also helps brighten my
Speaker 1: work commutes and dog box all the best, Cheryl. Oh,
Speaker 1: thank you, Cheryl. That is certainly what we strive to do.
Speaker 1: I'm glad to hear it's working for you, and thank
Speaker 1: you so much for this is a wonderful email. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I love I love accounts like this, and and certainly
Speaker 1: to involve the Kia in a standoff with your mother
Speaker 1: over the dismantling of the family automobile. This is that now,
Speaker 1: when it locked a mountaineer in a toilet, I assume
Speaker 1: that's a that that means in a bathroom. Yeah, though, um,
Speaker 1: I'm trying to imagine I guess some I guess it's
Speaker 1: not a proper report to John reporta potty because you
Speaker 1: would need some means of locking it from the outside.
Speaker 1: But obviously there could be various examples of some sort
Speaker 1: of public toilet scenario in which you can lock it,
Speaker 1: latch it, or a latch can be dropped into place
Speaker 1: from the outside, and it must have been a scenario
Speaker 1: like that. I can't imagine the keya installed a dead
Speaker 1: boulder or anything. I will have to learn more about
Speaker 1: the bird toilet imprisoning incident. Yeah, these are fascinating creatures
Speaker 1: in general. Um, I like to say I've I've watched
Speaker 1: documentaries about them before. It might be fun to look
Speaker 1: at them in the future. All right, This next message
Speaker 1: is from Renata who rides high rob and Joe. Well,
Speaker 1: at first you said you weren't going to talk about
Speaker 1: animals throwing things that were produced by their body, so
Speaker 1: I thought poop throwing was off the table. But then
Speaker 1: you brought it up with chimpanzees, which is great because
Speaker 1: now I have an excuse to tell another embarrassing story
Speaker 1: about Ben. Nada, by the way, has written in a
Speaker 1: number of times before. I think Ben would be a
Speaker 1: reference to her partner, who has come up in previous emails.
Speaker 1: Apologies if I'm remembering that wrong. Um, but so I
Speaker 1: think that is that this listener's partner anyway. Uh, she continues.
Speaker 1: We were in Borneo, going on nature tours every day
Speaker 1: on a boat down a river. One day we see
Speaker 1: some macaques as we turn into a canal with a
Speaker 1: canopy of trees. At first, we were all delighted to
Speaker 1: see monkeys up close. Then sure enough the guide said
Speaker 1: maybe we should move away as the monkeys seemed agitated.
Speaker 1: Moments later, Ben said, um, I got hit with monkey
Speaker 1: poo right in his lap. It was definitely thrown as
Speaker 1: we had moved enough away that we weren't directly under
Speaker 1: the monkeys, and also I think it was aimed purposefully.
Speaker 1: Ben was in fact the largest mail on the boat.
Speaker 1: Thankfully one of the other tourists had moist wipes. This
Speaker 1: is horrifying, so I guess they're going to target the
Speaker 1: tallest person that that kind of makes sense. We're not
Speaker 1: A continues with a second example here. Another animal that
Speaker 1: I saw doing a throwing like behavior similar to what
Speaker 1: you described with the mongoose are platypuses. I wasn't able
Speaker 1: to find a video, but Ben and I saw it
Speaker 1: happened to some poor crayfish in a tank in Melbourne. Uh.
Speaker 1: The platypus seemed to be flinging the crayfish into rocks
Speaker 1: with incredible speed and force, and then circled back to
Speaker 1: eat it. I'm not sure what part of their body
Speaker 1: the platypus is used to smash the crayfish. It all
Speaker 1: happened so fast. Platypuses would make a great episode or episodes.
Speaker 1: Unto themselves, love the throwing episodes. Keep up the great work,
Speaker 1: best Renata. Oh wow, that is interesting. Um. Yeah. For
Speaker 1: some reason, one, or at least I tend not to
Speaker 1: think about platypus is being the sort of species that
Speaker 1: do interesting things. Because they are so intrinsically interesting themselves,
Speaker 1: you know, um, Whereas it makes sense that that a
Speaker 1: less a specialized, more generalized body plan would engage in uh,
Speaker 1: you know, in in novel acts. This makes sense though,
Speaker 1: because this would be another example of a UM. I
Speaker 1: was gonna say a mammal, but as a platypus and
Speaker 1: mammal I guess, not as a platypus or supial or
Speaker 1: I don't know, it's one of those Australian animals we
Speaker 1: just checked. I guess a platypus is a is an
Speaker 1: egg laying Mammal's so sort of a I don't know,
Speaker 1: spanning categories UM, an egg laying mammal like a platypus.
Speaker 1: In in the other case it was a mongoose, but
Speaker 1: some mammal like creature uh, throwing a a prey species
Speaker 1: to get at the meat inside. In both cases here
Speaker 1: it would be an animal with an exo skeleton. So
Speaker 1: in the other case it was the mongoose throwing the millipede,
Speaker 1: which rolled up into a hard ball that the other
Speaker 1: animals couldn't get inside. And the crayfish, of course, is
Speaker 1: is armored. It's covered with the tough exoskeleton all over. Yeah, so,
Speaker 1: in both of these cases, very interesting examples observed in
Speaker 1: the wild. All right, here's another one. This one comes
Speaker 1: to us from J J. Not R J. J Uh.
Speaker 1: This J J says, good morning, Joe and Rob. I
Speaker 1: enjoyed your four part series on animals and people throwing,
Speaker 1: and I have my own anecdote to share. My family
Speaker 1: had a Chiesu growing up. While she wasn't a particularly
Speaker 1: bride dog, she would display one specific type of throwing behavior.
Speaker 1: When the mood struck her. She would take her tennis
Speaker 1: ball and hike it between her legs, then run and
Speaker 1: retrieve it. Sometimes the ball would travel several feet behind her,
Speaker 1: but most of the time it would get slowed down
Speaker 1: by her long hair and wind up only inches behind her.
Speaker 1: Very comical to watch, as she never seemed to know
Speaker 1: exactly where the ball was after the hike. Nevertheless, she
Speaker 1: seemed to enjoy it immensely. R. I. P. Pepper. Oh, now,
Speaker 1: this is just one of the messages we received that
Speaker 1: reminded us that in American football, the reverse granny shot
Speaker 1: is indeed called a hike, which I realized we should
Speaker 1: have known because they actually say it when they do it.
Speaker 1: They don't yell out reverse granny shot, they say hike.
Speaker 1: Shout out to listener Carlos, who also alerted us to this,
Speaker 1: who said, uh, yeah, I think he said in his message,
Speaker 1: you have both mentioned not being sports fans. True guilty.
Speaker 1: Uh And Carlos was like, I'm not really an American
Speaker 1: football player or watcher either, but I do know that
Speaker 1: when you throw a ball backwards between your legs, it
Speaker 1: is called a hike. So thanks Carlos and uh and
Speaker 1: for this message by by j J. Yeah, like it's
Speaker 1: it's in enough things that just refer to football and
Speaker 1: football culture that I should have remembered that. Okay. On
Speaker 1: a similar subject about dogs throwing, this is from Cody.
Speaker 1: Cody says, I know this isn't throwing, but the recent
Speaker 1: series of podcasts reminded me about my dog. One day,
Speaker 1: while working from home, I heard thudding in checking my
Speaker 1: dog had dropped his treat puzzle down the stairs. Not
Speaker 1: thinking much about it, I heard it again a few
Speaker 1: days later. After this, it made me curious. I put
Speaker 1: some more treats in the treat puzzle. He proceeded to
Speaker 1: take the treat puzzle up the stairs and drop it
Speaker 1: as it fell down the stairs, the treats would fall out,
Speaker 1: so he could then enjoy treats at his leisure. Thanks
Speaker 1: for your work. I enjoyed the podcast, Cody, very interesting.
Speaker 1: This is smart learned behavior by these dogs here. I
Speaker 1: mean when there's a treat involved. I guess that's where
Speaker 1: the operant conditioning comes in, right, if there's an immediate
Speaker 1: food reward. Again that you know, dogs can learn all
Speaker 1: kinds of things. All right, here's one that comes to
Speaker 1: us from Albert. Albert says, Hi, Robert and Joe in
Speaker 1: part two, I think you asked for any throwing mythology.
Speaker 1: I was surprised you did not remember the throw anything
Speaker 1: at balder party, where believing nothing can hurt him, all
Speaker 1: the Norse gods amused themselves by shooting and throwing all
Speaker 1: manner of things at balder. Of course, Loki finds out
Speaker 1: that the lowly missiletoe did not swear to not hurt Balder,
Speaker 1: and thus blind Huther is tricked into hurling a missiletoe
Speaker 1: at Balder, killing him. That is a really mean trick, Loki. Yeah, no,
Speaker 1: you know it's this thing. In part three, you mentioned
Speaker 1: the suggestion that mothers cradled their babies with their left arm,
Speaker 1: which is closer to the heart. But this is a
Speaker 1: chicken and egg question. Did mothers cradle their babies therefore
Speaker 1: the right arm became dominant to do all manners of work,
Speaker 1: concluding throwing to defend themselves. Or did mothers cradle their
Speaker 1: babies because they were right handed and wanted their dominant
Speaker 1: arm free for labor and defense. Thanks and keep up
Speaker 1: the great work, Albert. Well, Albert, thanks for the email.
Speaker 1: First to your second point about that hypothesis from I
Speaker 1: think the researcher was William Calvin, who suggested that maybe
Speaker 1: right hand lateralization for throwing evolved because mothers would be
Speaker 1: holding an infant in the left arm while trying to
Speaker 1: throw with the right. Again, any hypothesis like that that's
Speaker 1: like very specific about how things like that evolved. It's
Speaker 1: really hard to prove something that specific is actually what happened,
Speaker 1: So it's this is just sort of like a guess
Speaker 1: sort of to play with in your mind. But I
Speaker 1: think at least Calvin's argument for why the cradling in
Speaker 1: the left arm went first and the throwing in the
Speaker 1: right hand developed after that is because of the initial
Speaker 1: starting fact that there is an asymmetrical placement of the
Speaker 1: heart in the chest. So, according to that story, would
Speaker 1: be that the babies were on the left side because
Speaker 1: they wanted to be closer to the soothing sound of
Speaker 1: the heartbeat, and then the right hand lateralization for throwing
Speaker 1: could develop from there rather than it being the other
Speaker 1: way around. Yeah, that's fascinating. Um. Now on the on
Speaker 1: the mythology, uh point, I know we didn't. I don't
Speaker 1: think we really did an exhaustive search for myth about throwing,
Speaker 1: but but certainly anymore out there, keep them, keep them coming. Um.
Speaker 1: I did a little looking around after this email came in,
Speaker 1: and uh, I did run across something that I wasn't
Speaker 1: familiar with. And that's um this bit from ancient Greek
Speaker 1: tradition where chunking an apple at someone could be considered
Speaker 1: a seduction ploy, though not a marriage proposal, as some
Speaker 1: memes and uh sort of online factoids would seem to insist. Uh.
Speaker 1: There's an excellent blog post about this on Tales of
Speaker 1: Times Forgotten by Spencer McDaniel. I believe it was the
Speaker 1: twenty nineteen blog post about chunking apples that your beloved. Uh,
Speaker 1: So go check that out if you're at all interested
Speaker 1: in this, but also don't throw apples at people that
Speaker 1: you're romantically interested in. Leave that to the past. Maybe
Speaker 1: throw apple sauce. You know that's not gonna hurt anything. No,
Speaker 1: I don't think that's bad. I mean, maybe that's less dangerous,
Speaker 1: but don't the apple sauce. But it does. It kind
Speaker 1: of comes back to that that sort of cliche moment
Speaker 1: often from cinema that we did reference about throwing of
Speaker 1: the pebbles at the windows. So I don't know, Uh,
Speaker 1: we didn't look into this, but I wonder how like
Speaker 1: throwing things factors into the history of human courtship. There
Speaker 1: are other interesting traditions out there than involved like trying
Speaker 1: to peg somebody with a with a rock or a
Speaker 1: pebble or a fruit. Okay, finally here we're gonna do
Speaker 1: a message about Weird House Cinema. This is from Lawrence,
Speaker 1: subject line Scanners slash danger Man. Hey, guys, I was
Speaker 1: listening to your Weird House Cinema episode on scanners, and
Speaker 1: I was struck to hear one of you briefly trying
Speaker 1: to explain danger man to the other. I don't know
Speaker 1: if this is any help, but here goes. Danger Man
Speaker 1: was a British TV series that was shown in the
Speaker 1: US under the alternate title Secret Agent. It's theme song,
Speaker 1: Secret Agent Man was a top forties hit in the
Speaker 1: US in the sixties and seventies. Oh yeah, I know
Speaker 1: that one. Uh. It starred Patrick McGowan as the titular
Speaker 1: Secret Agent or I suppose the titular Danger Man, John Drake.
Speaker 1: Danger Man inspired the iconic seventeen episode series The Prisoner,
Speaker 1: which is was a sort of sequel to it. This
Speaker 1: gets me thinking, it's not cinema strictly speaking, but maybe
Speaker 1: you could bend the rule of it. The Prisoner would
Speaker 1: make for a great episode of weird House Cinema. Thanks
Speaker 1: for the episode, Lawrence. Yeah this, um um, this, this
Speaker 1: was actually something I wasn't really all that um clued
Speaker 1: into previously. Like I knew the song Secret Agent Man,
Speaker 1: and I knew the TV series that we know as
Speaker 1: Secret Agent Man in the US, but I really wasn't
Speaker 1: aware of the whole connection to Danger Man and that
Speaker 1: Danger Man was Secret Agent Man except in the original
Speaker 1: UK broadcast and then as as I was looking it up.
Speaker 1: This this a little more complicated too, because there was
Speaker 1: also a year two thousand TV series on up n
Speaker 1: uh titled Secret Agent Man that used a trip hop
Speaker 1: cover of the Johnny Rivers hit Secret Agent Man, the
Speaker 1: song that we're talking about as its theme song. But
Speaker 1: that show had nothing to do with Danger Man or
Speaker 1: the Prisoner just used the same theme song. I gotta
Speaker 1: look that up. Um oh I did. I'm not sure
Speaker 1: that there's much worth seeking out in this up n
Speaker 1: show from from two thousand. Oh no, I mean the
Speaker 1: cover of Secret Agent Oh yeah, No, I mean the
Speaker 1: cover might be pretty good trip hop cover of Secret
Speaker 1: Agent Man. Anyway, the lead actor in it was in
Speaker 1: a bunch of Saw movies, so if you're a big
Speaker 1: Saw fan, then you know it might be of interest.
Speaker 1: Was the Prisoner of the TV show that had a
Speaker 1: had like a killer ball, like a bouncy ball that
Speaker 1: would attack that big bouncy ball that. I have to
Speaker 1: admit The Prisoner as a show that I never did
Speaker 1: a dedicated viewing of. It would come on I think
Speaker 1: on any like you know, in the afternoons sometimes and
Speaker 1: I would I would watch an episode or part of
Speaker 1: an episode, But I don't think it's a series that
Speaker 1: really lends itself to that sort of viewing. I think
Speaker 1: you really have to get in there and watch it,
Speaker 1: and I never did. Yeah, if if we ever break
Speaker 1: the TV barrier, I could be into checking that out.
Speaker 1: We've done made for TV movies. Yeah yeah, oh in
Speaker 1: this picture from Patrick McGowan looks kind of like Roy
Speaker 1: Schier in this one shot. Anyways, Should we wrap it
Speaker 1: up there for today? I believe so. We'll go ahead
Speaker 1: and close the mail back, but we have much more
Speaker 1: to discuss and to read, so we'll be back next Monday.
Speaker 1: So uh, certainly keep the messages coming. If you have
Speaker 1: thoughts on past episodes, president episodes, future episodes right in,
Speaker 1: we'd love to hear from you, you know, responses to
Speaker 1: core episodes of Stuff to Blow Your Mind, which publish
Speaker 1: on two days and Thursdays, um, other listener mail episodes
Speaker 1: on Monday's, episodes of The Monster Fact or Artifact on Wednesdays,
Speaker 1: or of course episodes of Weird House Cinema which published
Speaker 1: on Fridays. I always love to hear from folks who
Speaker 1: uh you know, solve these films in the theater or
Speaker 1: on some past medium. Uh. We always like to hear
Speaker 1: from folks, So whatever the topic happens to be right
Speaker 1: in and uh, perhaps we'll read your message on a
Speaker 1: future episode of Listener Mail Big thanks to our audio
Speaker 1: producer J J. Paseway. If you would like to get
Speaker 1: in touch with us with feedback on this episode or
Speaker 1: any other, to suggest a topic for the future, or
