0:03:00.240 --> 0:03:03.440
<v Speaker 3>be really fun. I'm really looking forward to it. We

0:03:03.520 --> 0:03:08.079
<v Speaker 3>got a nice new sketch that we wrote, and yeah,

0:03:08.240 --> 0:03:11.080
<v Speaker 3>it'll be enjoyable. But it's a lot of feelings, you know,

0:03:11.560 --> 0:03:14.880
<v Speaker 3>of like having made something for twenty years and then

0:03:15.520 --> 0:03:16.600
<v Speaker 3>and putting it to bed.

0:03:17.760 --> 0:03:20.200
<v Speaker 2>Well, I don't think people so a lot of our listeners,

0:03:20.240 --> 0:03:22.440
<v Speaker 2>I mean a lot are comedy fans of yours from

0:03:22.480 --> 0:03:24.160
<v Speaker 2>back in the New York days. But I don't think

0:03:24.200 --> 0:03:27.200
<v Speaker 2>our ban animals. Because this podcast is only four years young.

0:03:27.880 --> 0:03:30.760
<v Speaker 2>Understand what a big show Hot Tub was in the

0:03:30.800 --> 0:03:33.359
<v Speaker 2>two thousands in New York. And that's how I met

0:03:33.440 --> 0:03:35.880
<v Speaker 2>Kurt and Kristen is I was became a super fan

0:03:35.960 --> 0:03:40.560
<v Speaker 2>and would go to every single week. But I saw everybody.

0:03:40.640 --> 0:03:43.000
<v Speaker 2>And this was before Kurt and Kristen really had punched

0:03:43.040 --> 0:03:46.840
<v Speaker 2>into entertainment. They were just people that were hosting this

0:03:46.960 --> 0:03:50.600
<v Speaker 2>weekly show where they would write original sketches and kind

0:03:50.640 --> 0:03:56.720
<v Speaker 2>of like stories while also hosting clowns, jugglers, great comics, musicians.

0:03:56.960 --> 0:04:01.080
<v Speaker 2>It was sketch performers, character performers. It was such a

0:04:01.120 --> 0:04:03.880
<v Speaker 2>big deal that a lot of other comics who are

0:04:03.920 --> 0:04:09.240
<v Speaker 2>now successful actors and writers. They started variety show in

0:04:09.280 --> 0:04:11.600
<v Speaker 2>the vein of Hot Tub, but you guys really were

0:04:12.840 --> 0:04:16.200
<v Speaker 2>the first to relaunch that format in New York. So honestly,

0:04:16.240 --> 0:04:18.520
<v Speaker 2>congratulations twenty years. Very impressive.

0:04:18.640 --> 0:04:21.360
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I feel like it's it's also to put an

0:04:21.520 --> 0:04:26.320
<v Speaker 3>end to something purposefully, because I do feel like the

0:04:26.480 --> 0:04:30.120
<v Speaker 3>I mean, the pandemic had killed all you know, live comedy,

0:04:30.600 --> 0:04:33.000
<v Speaker 3>and so we could have just let it die, you know,

0:04:33.880 --> 0:04:38.440
<v Speaker 3>but it just felt so unjust to this thing that

0:04:38.480 --> 0:04:42.520
<v Speaker 3>we'd put so many thousands of hours into to just

0:04:42.800 --> 0:04:46.480
<v Speaker 3>die without even a whimper, just silently disappear.

0:04:47.120 --> 0:04:48.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's right.

0:04:48.160 --> 0:04:52.560
<v Speaker 3>So it's been fits felt good to force it with

0:04:52.839 --> 0:04:56.560
<v Speaker 3>might and will back into existence. Yeah, with a lot

0:04:56.600 --> 0:05:00.760
<v Speaker 3>of blood and sweated, and kill it properly and permanent.

0:05:00.839 --> 0:05:03.200
<v Speaker 2>It's that permanent record. So catch one of these last shows.

0:05:03.200 --> 0:05:06.280
<v Speaker 2>If you're in southern California visiting La go see some

0:05:06.320 --> 0:05:08.599
<v Speaker 2>of these last Hot Tub shows. Permanent Records is a

0:05:08.640 --> 0:05:14.600
<v Speaker 2>fun venue. It's where gen Z millennials interact. So it's

0:05:14.640 --> 0:05:16.280
<v Speaker 2>where I get to go see what gen Z is

0:05:16.360 --> 0:05:18.720
<v Speaker 2>up to. They're doing fine, they're doing they're doing fine.

0:05:18.760 --> 0:05:21.000
<v Speaker 3>And then I just walk around as the only gen

0:05:21.200 --> 0:05:22.440
<v Speaker 3>x er other than the owner.

0:05:23.279 --> 0:05:25.960
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, hello, folks, nice to see ya.

0:05:26.680 --> 0:05:29.320

<v Speaker 1>I love those.

0:05:31.960 --> 0:05:34.000
<v Speaker 2>I know, I am curious. It's like it's fun to

0:05:34.080 --> 0:05:37.520
<v Speaker 2>see the the youth. It's fun to see the twenty one,

0:05:37.640 --> 0:05:40.040
<v Speaker 2>twenty two, twenty three year olds drinking like PBR similar

0:05:40.080 --> 0:05:42.200
<v Speaker 2>highlights and be like, oh yeah, yeah, oh yeah, I

0:05:42.240 --> 0:05:44.280
<v Speaker 2>remember those days. It's you when you walked up to

0:05:44.279 --> 0:05:46.560
<v Speaker 2>the bartender and said, what's your cheapest beer? Yeah?

0:05:46.600 --> 0:05:51.359
<v Speaker 3>Man, do that again, just get always get the cheapest beer.

<v Speaker 2>Yeah, what's your cheapest beer? How are you?

0:05:55.680 --> 0:05:56.800
<v Speaker 1>What's going on in your life?

0:05:56.880 --> 0:05:59.360
<v Speaker 2>Pal? Oh, let me think if I have anything interesting

0:05:59.400 --> 0:06:05.200
<v Speaker 2>to say. Dude, Oh, I I joined a gym, so

0:06:05.240 --> 0:06:08.479
<v Speaker 2>get ready. I'm I got a clean bill of health.

0:06:08.520 --> 0:06:11.680
<v Speaker 2>My doctor's like, Scott, you're healthy. I'm like great, And

0:06:11.720 --> 0:06:14.280
<v Speaker 2>she's like, you need to work out now as like

0:06:14.360 --> 0:06:17.840
<v Speaker 2>free weights, like weightlifting, not cardio. Yeah, because she's like,

0:06:17.960 --> 0:06:20.159
<v Speaker 2>it's get as strong as you can in the next

0:06:20.160 --> 0:06:22.560
<v Speaker 2>five years, because when you turn seventy you're going to

0:06:22.600 --> 0:06:25.680
<v Speaker 2>be half as strong as that. And so I was like, okay,

0:06:25.760 --> 0:06:28.279
<v Speaker 2>let's get to it. So I'm I'm three days into

0:06:28.320 --> 0:06:32.080
<v Speaker 2>the gym, and I gotta say I missed it and

0:06:32.160 --> 0:06:36.400
<v Speaker 2>I love it. And if I can get comically ripped,

0:06:36.440 --> 0:06:37.039
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to.

0:06:37.560 --> 0:06:39.200
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I feel the same way.

0:06:39.320 --> 0:06:42.440
<v Speaker 3>I'm very excited. I like, I really like weightlifting. I've

0:06:42.480 --> 0:06:44.760
<v Speaker 3>been like talking to Kumal about it and he's been

0:06:44.760 --> 0:06:47.120
<v Speaker 3>giving me like tips and stuff, and I'm like.

0:06:47.360 --> 0:06:51.200
<v Speaker 2>He's a whole different that dude. Is Like it's funny

0:06:51.200 --> 0:06:52.599
<v Speaker 2>when I see him now and give him a hug.

0:06:52.640 --> 0:06:55.680
<v Speaker 2>It's just like and I'm holding a bag of cement

0:06:56.040 --> 0:06:59.039
<v Speaker 2>and I'm letting go of a bag of cement. It

0:06:59.120 --> 0:07:01.800
<v Speaker 2>really is to me. And he's like, and this is

0:07:01.839 --> 0:07:03.880
<v Speaker 2>a sock full of mayonnaise, and I'm letting go of

0:07:03.920 --> 0:07:06.360
<v Speaker 2>a sock full of mayonnaise. So I would like him

0:07:06.400 --> 0:07:06.880
<v Speaker 2>to its good.

0:07:07.000 --> 0:07:08.880
<v Speaker 3>I would like him to one day just throw me

0:07:08.920 --> 0:07:10.680
<v Speaker 3>across a room, like do you know what I mean,

0:07:11.040 --> 0:07:13.720
<v Speaker 3>Just like into a couch or something somewhere pleasant. But

0:07:13.920 --> 0:07:15.600
<v Speaker 3>just I bet you he could easily do it.

0:07:15.640 --> 0:07:16.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure he could.

0:07:19.880 --> 0:07:22.960
<v Speaker 2>I'm just in like, man, I'm really busy. Oh I

0:07:23.000 --> 0:07:27.840
<v Speaker 2>have this one thing I might let's see. So when

0:07:27.880 --> 0:07:32.320
<v Speaker 2>I was in I've been pitching these movies and I

0:07:32.440 --> 0:07:35.880
<v Speaker 2>was pitching when I was on vacation, and I'm having

0:07:35.920 --> 0:07:39.720
<v Speaker 2>this new experience that feels so good, where because the

0:07:39.800 --> 0:07:43.920
<v Speaker 2>industry is constricting so much, I now feel less like

0:07:44.000 --> 0:07:47.480
<v Speaker 2>I'm pitching to overlords, and now I'm pitching to people

0:07:47.480 --> 0:07:49.720
<v Speaker 2>that are like, can you help us? Oh, can you

0:07:49.880 --> 0:07:53.520
<v Speaker 2>help me save my job? Whereas before I always felt

0:07:53.560 --> 0:07:55.760
<v Speaker 2>for the last yeah, how long I've been doing this

0:07:56.960 --> 0:08:00.280
<v Speaker 2>thirteen fourteen years. Yeah, for the last fourteen years, every

0:08:00.360 --> 0:08:03.000
<v Speaker 2>TV and movie pitch I ever went on, I felt like, Okay,

0:08:03.000 --> 0:08:05.400
<v Speaker 2>I'm the underdog. Yeah, they hold the keys to the

0:08:05.440 --> 0:08:08.000
<v Speaker 2>city and I have to get them to green light

0:08:08.120 --> 0:08:11.440
<v Speaker 2>my ideas and me as a person. And now still

0:08:11.440 --> 0:08:13.880
<v Speaker 2>the case for some of the projects. But all of

0:08:13.920 --> 0:08:16.840
<v Speaker 2>a sudden this fall, especially the last few weeks, I

0:08:16.840 --> 0:08:19.280
<v Speaker 2>feel like people are like, hey, man, can you can

0:08:19.320 --> 0:08:21.400
<v Speaker 2>you bring that in? And then when I pitch, they're like,

0:08:21.560 --> 0:08:24.440
<v Speaker 2>thank you so much for bringing this to us. We

0:08:24.480 --> 0:08:26.840
<v Speaker 2>are really excited about this and working with you, and

0:08:27.200 --> 0:08:31.440
<v Speaker 2>that the pivot is I think now that so many

0:08:31.480 --> 0:08:33.880
<v Speaker 2>people are getting laid off and fired and there's just

0:08:33.960 --> 0:08:37.120
<v Speaker 2>not as much work at the moment. Yeah, people are

0:08:37.160 --> 0:08:40.440
<v Speaker 2>actually not just being royal assholes all the time and

0:08:40.520 --> 0:08:42.200
<v Speaker 2>it feels incredible.

0:08:42.280 --> 0:08:46.079
<v Speaker 1>That's awesome. That is such a that's like for those

0:08:46.160 --> 0:08:49.120
<v Speaker 1>of you who don't, like, aren't in this world. That

0:08:49.280 --> 0:08:50.640
<v Speaker 1>is a huge deal.

0:08:51.000 --> 0:08:54.800
<v Speaker 3>Scotty is in like the top, like the top one

0:08:54.880 --> 0:08:57.760
<v Speaker 3>percent of people who do this. Now, like for that

0:08:58.040 --> 0:09:00.720
<v Speaker 3>to be that ninety nine percent of people walk in

0:09:00.760 --> 0:09:03.880
<v Speaker 3>there and they're like, Yeah, what do you got You're

0:09:03.880 --> 0:09:09.280
<v Speaker 3>wasting The vibe in the room is always friendly. It's friendly,

0:09:09.559 --> 0:09:11.760
<v Speaker 3>but it's also you're also wasting my time.

0:09:12.679 --> 0:09:16.360
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's true. And in the old school way before zoom.

0:09:16.360 --> 0:09:18.480
<v Speaker 2>So all pitching is over zoom now for all your

0:09:18.480 --> 0:09:24.240
<v Speaker 2>aspiring writers and movie screenwriters out there. But now, so,

0:09:24.280 --> 0:09:25.880
<v Speaker 2>you used to be able to pitch at a you

0:09:25.960 --> 0:09:29.440
<v Speaker 2>walked into a room in a building, very shocking, and

0:09:29.480 --> 0:09:31.880
<v Speaker 2>you'd sit at a conference table a lot of time,

0:09:32.040 --> 0:09:34.079
<v Speaker 2>or in the office of an executive. Yeah, and then

0:09:34.120 --> 0:09:37.120
<v Speaker 2>your job was to be basically to have memorized your

0:09:37.120 --> 0:09:41.160
<v Speaker 2>whole pitch, and you'd pitch either the entire movie, meaning

0:09:41.240 --> 0:09:45.160
<v Speaker 2>like kind of the main five to seven beats, have jokes,

0:09:45.720 --> 0:09:48.440
<v Speaker 2>have it timed out, have it charming, introduce yourself in

0:09:48.480 --> 0:09:51.040
<v Speaker 2>it while you're doing the project, and you could get

0:09:51.360 --> 0:09:54.000
<v Speaker 2>thirty minutes. They'd give you thirty minutes if it was

0:09:54.040 --> 0:09:55.319
<v Speaker 2>a really deep pitch.

0:09:55.400 --> 0:09:57.600
<v Speaker 3>And that's not a thirty minute pitch. Your pitch should

0:09:57.640 --> 0:10:01.040
<v Speaker 3>be fifteen yeah, and now and then chat about it.

0:10:01.280 --> 0:10:04.720
<v Speaker 2>Yeah yeah, and now over zoom. When I pitch these movies,

0:10:04.840 --> 0:10:07.800
<v Speaker 2>I mean it is it is like it's about a

0:10:07.880 --> 0:10:11.040
<v Speaker 2>dog that turns it to a man that becomes a

0:10:11.080 --> 0:10:16.880
<v Speaker 2>fireman who befriends the Dalmatian. That's the movie. And they're like, great,

0:10:16.960 --> 0:10:19.320
<v Speaker 2>let's do it. Or they're like not at all, and

0:10:19.360 --> 0:10:22.880
<v Speaker 2>I'm like, it's called fire Boy and it's in theaters this,

0:10:23.240 --> 0:10:26.440
<v Speaker 2>you know, it's like so quick, and I think we're

0:10:26.480 --> 0:10:29.719
<v Speaker 2>saving time. But yes, now it feels more like an agreement.

0:10:30.240 --> 0:10:33.679
<v Speaker 2>They're happy I'm there instead of being like, like you said, like,

0:10:33.720 --> 0:10:36.600
<v Speaker 2>what's up, dork? Yeah, what horrible idea you're about to

0:10:36.640 --> 0:10:40.319
<v Speaker 2>pitch me. I'm gonna look at my phone the whole time. Yeah.

0:10:40.360 --> 0:10:42.280
<v Speaker 2>I had a guy at CBS fall asleep on me

0:10:42.880 --> 0:10:44.119
<v Speaker 2>ty eighteen.

0:10:44.720 --> 0:10:47.720
<v Speaker 3>Just in twenty eighteen, he fell asleep in the pitch.

0:10:48.320 --> 0:10:52.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. I was pitching with our former guest and star

0:10:52.760 --> 0:10:57.280
<v Speaker 2>of Ghost on CBS, Sheila Carrasco, who we love, and

0:10:57.400 --> 0:10:59.240
<v Speaker 2>Sheila and I had a pitch and we took it

0:10:59.360 --> 0:11:01.800
<v Speaker 2>in and in the pitch, one of the executives was

0:11:01.880 --> 0:11:04.320
<v Speaker 2>nodding off. His eyes were closing, kind of like a

0:11:04.360 --> 0:11:07.200
<v Speaker 2>freshman in college during a really boring class. And I

0:11:07.360 --> 0:11:09.880
<v Speaker 2>was like, and you just keep going.

0:11:09.720 --> 0:11:11.600
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, you can't call him out, because if you call

0:11:11.679 --> 0:11:15.079
<v Speaker 3>him out, there's no way, there's no way that it's

0:11:15.080 --> 0:11:16.400
<v Speaker 3>getting made.

0:11:16.600 --> 0:11:19.640
<v Speaker 2>But it's like the equivalent if you were at a

0:11:19.679 --> 0:11:21.800
<v Speaker 2>bar and you saw somebody and you were like, that's

0:11:21.840 --> 0:11:24.439
<v Speaker 2>an attractive person. I'm single. I hope they're single. I'm

0:11:24.480 --> 0:11:26.480
<v Speaker 2>going to go talk to them and ask them out.

0:11:26.600 --> 0:11:29.160
<v Speaker 2>And then as you walked towards them, they jogged away

0:11:29.200 --> 0:11:31.280
<v Speaker 2>at the same speed that you were walking. And then

0:11:31.320 --> 0:11:33.760
<v Speaker 2>you just walked around the bar with them jogging away

0:11:33.760 --> 0:11:36.400
<v Speaker 2>from you. That's what it felt like pitching with Sheila,

0:11:36.480 --> 0:11:38.560
<v Speaker 2>who's a star and now on a hit TV show.

0:11:38.679 --> 0:11:42.360
<v Speaker 3>Also, if you were always, at any time you were

0:11:42.360 --> 0:11:48.760
<v Speaker 3>pitching inside a executive's office, the place you had to

0:11:48.840 --> 0:11:53.520
<v Speaker 3>sit was on a couch. The couches were always were big.

0:11:54.160 --> 0:11:56.720
<v Speaker 3>We're big guys, And there's two things about those couches. One,

0:11:56.840 --> 0:12:00.000
<v Speaker 3>the back of the couch four inches tall. You can't

0:12:00.120 --> 0:12:02.400
<v Speaker 3>lean back at it four inches tall, and then the

0:12:03.400 --> 0:12:07.000
<v Speaker 3>material you sit on you sink into, so there is

0:12:07.120 --> 0:12:10.199
<v Speaker 3>no way to take like a power stance. You can't

0:12:10.280 --> 0:12:13.280
<v Speaker 3>lean back, you don't want to lean forward. And then

0:12:13.320 --> 0:12:16.160
<v Speaker 3>now you're sunk down with like your knees above your butt,

0:12:16.520 --> 0:12:20.079
<v Speaker 3>and now you have to like somehow command the room

0:12:20.160 --> 0:12:21.120
<v Speaker 3>from this position.

0:12:21.720 --> 0:12:23.760
<v Speaker 1>Is absolutely right, it's so insane.

0:12:24.360 --> 0:12:26.720
<v Speaker 2>You're absolutely right, all right, it's exactly that.

0:12:27.360 --> 0:12:30.400
<v Speaker 3>Here it is woman who sued company for not giving

0:12:30.440 --> 0:12:31.520
<v Speaker 3>a farewell card.

0:12:32.200 --> 0:12:33.800
<v Speaker 1>This woman is amazing.

0:12:34.520 --> 0:12:35.640
<v Speaker 2>This was written by.

0:12:36.320 --> 0:12:42.360
<v Speaker 3>Taylor Odishu Odi Show, ODIs Show, ODIs Show, Taylor Otis

0:12:42.400 --> 0:12:49.960
<v Speaker 3>Show for the Latin Times, Taylor Abyz biz And this

0:12:50.120 --> 0:12:53.320
<v Speaker 3>was sent in by Reach in the Darkness. Reach in

0:12:53.360 --> 0:12:56.280
<v Speaker 3>the Darkness, Thank you. This just came out. British woman

0:12:56.840 --> 0:13:00.160
<v Speaker 3>who sued a former employer because she didn't get a

0:13:00.200 --> 0:13:03.160
<v Speaker 3>farewell card found out in court that her colleagues did

0:13:03.160 --> 0:13:05.400
<v Speaker 3>in fact buy her card. It's just hardly anybody signed it.

0:13:05.320 --> 0:13:06.320
<v Speaker 1>According to a report.

0:13:06.840 --> 0:13:10.679
<v Speaker 3>After her colleagues didn't present her with a farewell card

0:13:10.720 --> 0:13:15.160
<v Speaker 3>on her last day of work, Karen Connagan sued the

0:13:15.240 --> 0:13:21.560
<v Speaker 3>International Airlines Group, her former employer from twenty nineteen until

0:13:21.600 --> 0:13:26.480
<v Speaker 3>she was laid off in twenty twenty one. And do

0:13:26.520 --> 0:13:30.520
<v Speaker 3>you know what she sued them for for, quote, failure

0:13:30.640 --> 0:13:32.599
<v Speaker 3>to acknowledge her existence.

0:13:33.120 --> 0:13:36.400
<v Speaker 2>Oh boy, yeah, I can understand why I already want

0:13:36.480 --> 0:13:39.760
<v Speaker 2>to fail to acknowledge her existence within one paragraph.

0:13:40.080 --> 0:13:42.840
<v Speaker 1>She worked there for two years.

0:13:42.720 --> 0:13:48.679
<v Speaker 3>She would have heard in court, Connagan's former colleagues testified

0:13:48.720 --> 0:13:50.640
<v Speaker 3>that they did buy a card, but they didn't give

0:13:50.679 --> 0:13:53.360
<v Speaker 3>it to her because only three people signed it. He

0:13:53.400 --> 0:13:55.520
<v Speaker 3>believed it would have been more insulting to give her

0:13:55.559 --> 0:13:58.280
<v Speaker 3>the card than not to give her a card at all.

0:13:58.640 --> 0:14:02.800
<v Speaker 3>Conagan bought a total of forty allegations forty allegations against

0:14:02.840 --> 0:14:07.280
<v Speaker 3>IAG in her lawsuit, including victimization, unfair dismissal, but the

0:14:07.280 --> 0:14:11.600
<v Speaker 3>court dismissed every claim, including the alleged breach of equality law,

0:14:12.320 --> 0:14:15.040
<v Speaker 3>because they either did not happen, or if they did,

0:14:15.080 --> 0:14:17.520
<v Speaker 3>they were innocuous interactions in the normal course.

0:14:17.320 --> 0:14:18.959
<v Speaker 2>Of employment, the judge said.

0:14:19.320 --> 0:14:21.640
<v Speaker 3>The judge, out of the kind of had exhibited conspiracy

0:14:21.680 --> 0:14:26.520
<v Speaker 3>theory mentality and misinterpreted normal workplace interactsment interactions as harassment.

0:14:27.080 --> 0:14:30.840
<v Speaker 3>The example offered was when Conagan wrote wiz in a

0:14:30.880 --> 0:14:35.400
<v Speaker 3>coworker's card, then claimed another colleague was copying her when

0:14:35.480 --> 0:14:40.440
<v Speaker 3>they used Wiz in a different card, who.

0:14:42.160 --> 0:14:45.840
<v Speaker 2>The TikTokers would have said is main character energy? That

0:14:46.080 --> 0:14:47.280
<v Speaker 2>is crazy.

0:14:47.600 --> 0:14:48.920
<v Speaker 1>The Guardian reported.

0:14:49.000 --> 0:14:52.000
<v Speaker 3>She also complained after a coworker asked are you taking

0:14:52.040 --> 0:14:55.440
<v Speaker 3>the piss Karen, a popular British term making fun of someone,

0:14:55.480 --> 0:14:58.520
<v Speaker 3>after she claimed she was doing quote all the hard work.

0:14:58.800 --> 0:15:01.600
<v Speaker 3>Oh my god, she's so terri terrible. Yeah, bad person,

0:15:01.680 --> 0:15:04.800
<v Speaker 3>what a terrible person. Well, I'm happy that she got

0:15:04.800 --> 0:15:08.960
<v Speaker 3>to do this and now it's in articles and strangers

0:15:08.960 --> 0:15:10.560
<v Speaker 3>are reading it, so you must feel it.

0:15:10.680 --> 0:15:13.520
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, she must feel great. But also I feel

0:15:13.560 --> 0:15:15.800
<v Speaker 2>like to get to this point in life now we

0:15:15.960 --> 0:15:18.040
<v Speaker 2>just we live in a world where half the people

0:15:18.160 --> 0:15:22.920
<v Speaker 2>have no shame. And so she seems like she probably

0:15:22.960 --> 0:15:23.840
<v Speaker 2>loves this attention.

0:15:24.080 --> 0:15:25.160
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah probably.

0:15:25.520 --> 0:15:30.360
<v Speaker 3>I mean, like it is fascinating working in an office

0:15:31.160 --> 0:15:35.520
<v Speaker 3>that the rituals that I was unaware of. Also the

0:15:35.560 --> 0:15:39.920
<v Speaker 3>having a getting a goodbye farewell card is that maybe

0:15:39.920 --> 0:15:42.040
<v Speaker 3>that's more common in the UK. I've never heard of it.

0:15:42.120 --> 0:15:44.480
<v Speaker 3>I mean, like, I guess maybe you could if you

0:15:44.520 --> 0:15:46.640
<v Speaker 3>were like quitting and going on to somewhere else. But

0:15:46.720 --> 0:15:49.600
<v Speaker 3>if you get like let go, who's giving you a

0:15:49.640 --> 0:15:50.400
<v Speaker 3>farewell card?

0:15:50.480 --> 0:15:52.000
<v Speaker 1>It seems like so strange.

0:15:52.760 --> 0:15:54.960
<v Speaker 2>Just walk out the door. I love a good ending,

0:15:55.040 --> 0:15:58.000
<v Speaker 2>but it's like, get out of there. I want is

0:15:58.280 --> 0:16:02.720
<v Speaker 2>little connection as possible. I want. If I'm leaving a job,

0:16:02.800 --> 0:16:06.000
<v Speaker 2>it's like bye Bud, I'm like bye, see ya. I

0:16:06.040 --> 0:16:08.160
<v Speaker 2>did work with one guy and I got a shout

0:16:08.240 --> 0:16:10.800
<v Speaker 2>him out, our got thumbs him up, named Griffin Richardson.

0:16:11.120 --> 0:16:13.920
<v Speaker 2>It was my first job in New York on that

0:16:14.000 --> 0:16:17.200
<v Speaker 2>TV show Stella, and I was a sound production assistant.

0:16:17.240 --> 0:16:20.720
<v Speaker 2>Started at the bottom and I only worked two weeks

0:16:20.720 --> 0:16:23.040
<v Speaker 2>and then it flipped and went union and so I

0:16:23.120 --> 0:16:26.120
<v Speaker 2>got let go, which was fine. But he gave me

0:16:26.160 --> 0:16:29.400
<v Speaker 2>a bottle of Jamison as a thank you parting gift. Whoa,

0:16:30.560 --> 0:16:32.760
<v Speaker 2>that's a I think he's gone on to great success

0:16:32.800 --> 0:16:36.560
<v Speaker 2>as a sound mixer, and I think he's worked constantly.

0:16:36.720 --> 0:16:38.440
<v Speaker 2>But it was such a nice gesture.

0:16:38.600 --> 0:16:44.280
<v Speaker 3>So Richardson back then as well, what were you twenty two, twenty.

0:16:43.920 --> 0:16:45.720
<v Speaker 2>Three, twenty two?

0:16:46.000 --> 0:16:50.240
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, to get a full bottle of liquor, You're like, well, well, well,

0:16:50.280 --> 0:16:53.400
<v Speaker 3>well I'm a rich rich man dude.

0:16:53.520 --> 0:16:55.720
<v Speaker 2>And they would feed me, which I didn't realize because

0:16:55.720 --> 0:16:57.560
<v Speaker 2>I was a production It was my first job as

0:16:57.560 --> 0:17:00.520
<v Speaker 2>a PA, and you know, you walked in and they

0:17:00.560 --> 0:17:02.880
<v Speaker 2>had a hot breakfast. They had a truck serving catering

0:17:02.920 --> 0:17:06.200
<v Speaker 2>every morning. And and this one guy, this Grip, pulled

0:17:06.240 --> 0:17:07.919
<v Speaker 2>me over. He had like an old pro and he's like,

0:17:08.440 --> 0:17:10.040
<v Speaker 2>you know what you gotta get? I'm like no. He

0:17:10.080 --> 0:17:12.359
<v Speaker 2>goes get a balt with an egg and then put

0:17:12.359 --> 0:17:14.719
<v Speaker 2>Frank's hot sauce on it, and that was like his

0:17:14.920 --> 0:17:17.480
<v Speaker 2>like cool thing. And I gotta say, it is such

0:17:17.480 --> 0:17:20.919
<v Speaker 2>a good breakfast sandwich with a fried egg on it

0:17:20.960 --> 0:17:24.800
<v Speaker 2>and Frank's hot red hot. Damn dude, still do that,

0:17:25.240 --> 0:17:27.399
<v Speaker 2>but shout out, yeah, thanks Griffin. That was like a

0:17:27.640 --> 0:17:29.960
<v Speaker 2>I just remember feeling appreciated because when you're a PA,

0:17:30.040 --> 0:17:34.359
<v Speaker 2>it's the lowest tier. You know, you're basically only extras

0:17:34.480 --> 0:17:39.320
<v Speaker 2>are more firerable than PA's. I once had as somebody

0:17:39.359 --> 0:17:41.560
<v Speaker 2>told me that furniture on set is more important than

0:17:41.600 --> 0:17:45.240
<v Speaker 2>the extras. So that just shows how painful it is

0:17:45.280 --> 0:17:45.879
<v Speaker 2>to be an extra.

0:17:46.000 --> 0:17:49.280
<v Speaker 3>It is very, very painful. I did it once and

0:17:49.359 --> 0:17:53.600
<v Speaker 3>I've never ever ever done it again. What was your

0:17:53.600 --> 0:17:57.480
<v Speaker 3>favorite my favorite office tradition?

0:17:58.119 --> 0:17:59.240
<v Speaker 2>Okay, yeah, when.

0:17:59.080 --> 0:18:03.040
<v Speaker 3>I was at Access Staffing in New York City, was

0:18:03.119 --> 0:18:07.240
<v Speaker 3>they would have bagel Fridays, m Bagel Friday.

0:18:07.359 --> 0:18:09.520
<v Speaker 1>That that is, that's delightful.

0:18:09.800 --> 0:18:13.400
<v Speaker 3>That is such a good idea every Friday to.

0:18:13.320 --> 0:18:15.399
<v Speaker 2>Have a baby and you can double dip because you go,

0:18:15.480 --> 0:18:17.520
<v Speaker 2>you make your first bagel and then you roll back

0:18:17.600 --> 0:18:19.960
<v Speaker 2>in there and whatever half. You know, there's always somebody

0:18:20.000 --> 0:18:22.680
<v Speaker 2>that halfs a bagel or halves a bagel, and then

0:18:22.760 --> 0:18:25.639
<v Speaker 2>you you go, well, I'll eat that other half that

0:18:25.720 --> 0:18:29.560
<v Speaker 2>susame sitting there. I see some veggie cream cheese left over,

0:18:29.640 --> 0:18:32.320
<v Speaker 2>I'll toast that up in half it. That was a

0:18:32.359 --> 0:18:36.199
<v Speaker 2>good one. The worst ones are when you're it's a

0:18:36.200 --> 0:18:38.480
<v Speaker 2>smaller company and they like they're like, hey, we're gonna

0:18:38.520 --> 0:18:41.240
<v Speaker 2>do a little wine mixer on Wednesday in the in

0:18:41.280 --> 0:18:43.840
<v Speaker 2>the kitchenette, and then it's just the people that have

0:18:43.920 --> 0:18:47.719
<v Speaker 2>been sitting two feet away from you drinking wine and

0:18:47.800 --> 0:18:52.040
<v Speaker 2>you gotta suddenly be like, so anybody going to a

0:18:53.320 --> 0:18:57.159
<v Speaker 2>thing this weekend and you're just like drinking warm wine

0:18:57.160 --> 0:19:01.159
<v Speaker 2>out of a plastic cup, going I wish we I

0:19:01.200 --> 0:19:04.000
<v Speaker 2>wish a nuclear weapon would hit this office right now.

0:19:04.359 --> 0:19:06.960
<v Speaker 3>There was one guy that I remember, he was a

0:19:07.080 --> 0:19:11.760
<v Speaker 3>very fascinating. Man. He's probably gone and done good things

0:19:11.800 --> 0:19:13.960
<v Speaker 3>after this working at this weird job. But he was

0:19:13.960 --> 0:19:17.880
<v Speaker 3>like a Southern dude, and he would like he didn't

0:19:17.920 --> 0:19:20.679
<v Speaker 3>work there very long. And I was one of like,

0:19:20.880 --> 0:19:23.000
<v Speaker 3>you know, four people who were in our twenties who

0:19:23.080 --> 0:19:25.399
<v Speaker 3>worked at the office. And he's like, let's go get lunch.

0:19:25.520 --> 0:19:26.920
<v Speaker 3>And I was like, all right, well, let's go. And

0:19:26.920 --> 0:19:28.120
<v Speaker 3>I was like, where you want to go get to lunch.

0:19:28.119 --> 0:19:29.520
<v Speaker 3>He's like, let's go to this bar.

0:19:29.640 --> 0:19:31.040
<v Speaker 1>And I was like, oh, we're going to a bar.

0:19:31.440 --> 0:19:32.080
<v Speaker 1>And then he's done.

0:19:32.119 --> 0:19:35.479
<v Speaker 3>He's like, let's get martinis. And I was like okay, okay,

0:19:35.520 --> 0:19:38.119
<v Speaker 3>and then he's like, let's get another martini. And then

0:19:38.119 --> 0:19:41.239
<v Speaker 3>I was just like, are we just eating burgers and

0:19:41.280 --> 0:19:44.240
<v Speaker 3>getting drunk at lunch? And then we would come back

0:19:44.240 --> 0:19:45.960
<v Speaker 3>and then he just tried to make it a thing

0:19:46.400 --> 0:19:47.000
<v Speaker 3>for a little while.

0:19:47.040 --> 0:19:50.400
<v Speaker 1>I was like, I can't. I can't have two martinis

0:19:50.800 --> 0:19:53.920
<v Speaker 1>at twelve thirty multiple times a week.

0:19:54.040 --> 0:19:57.600
<v Speaker 2>Man. Maybe what the dude loved mad Man. He was

0:19:57.600 --> 0:19:59.760
<v Speaker 2>just trying to live the Don Draper three martini.

0:20:00.000 --> 0:20:02.440
<v Speaker 1>It was pre it was pre mad Men too.

0:20:05.680 --> 0:20:07.879
<v Speaker 2>I mean, that's pretty fun. Those are good ones. I

0:20:09.200 --> 0:20:12.000
<v Speaker 2>I one time one of my bosses in New York

0:20:12.160 --> 0:20:14.440
<v Speaker 2>was like, do you play soccer? And I go, yeah,

0:20:14.440 --> 0:20:16.680
<v Speaker 2>I do. He was a British guy, and I was like,

0:20:16.800 --> 0:20:18.640
<v Speaker 2>so he goes, do you play football? And I goes sure,

0:20:18.880 --> 0:20:20.680
<v Speaker 2>and he goes, will you come play? We have like

0:20:20.800 --> 0:20:24.480
<v Speaker 2>our group thing over on you know, twenty sixth Street

0:20:24.480 --> 0:20:26.359
<v Speaker 2>Pier wherever it was. I said, sure, I'll play. I

0:20:26.440 --> 0:20:28.680
<v Speaker 2>was like, I haven't played in like six years, but

0:20:28.720 --> 0:20:31.119
<v Speaker 2>I'm happy to play. And I show up and it

0:20:31.320 --> 0:20:33.760
<v Speaker 2>was me and him and then a bunch of his

0:20:34.040 --> 0:20:37.640
<v Speaker 2>son's friends who were like ten what. So I thought

0:20:37.680 --> 0:20:38.840
<v Speaker 2>it was going to be like a bunch of like

0:20:38.920 --> 0:20:41.760
<v Speaker 2>business guys, like I'd make some connections or just I'd

0:20:41.800 --> 0:20:44.680
<v Speaker 2>play some pickup soccer, but instead it's he's on one side,

0:20:44.680 --> 0:20:46.560
<v Speaker 2>I'm on the other. And then it was like five

0:20:46.720 --> 0:20:48.880
<v Speaker 2>kids on each team, so not even a full soccer team.

0:20:49.280 --> 0:20:51.800
<v Speaker 2>And then we just ran around an astroturfield and he's like,

0:20:51.840 --> 0:20:54.280
<v Speaker 2>you're actually pretty good soccer player, and I'm like, well, yeah,

0:20:54.320 --> 0:20:59.560
<v Speaker 2>compare it to ten ten year olds. I'm Peley, I'm Ronaldo,

0:21:00.240 --> 0:21:02.920
<v Speaker 2>but everybody out here, yes, I am the best soccer

0:21:03.000 --> 0:21:05.800
<v Speaker 2>player on the field right now. A middle aged British

0:21:05.880 --> 0:21:10.119
<v Speaker 2>man and ten children. That's your sweet spot.

0:21:10.640 --> 0:21:14.520
<v Speaker 1>That should be it, that actually should be a league

0:21:17.800 --> 0:21:21.119
<v Speaker 1>one twenties one middle age ten ten year olds.

0:21:21.840 --> 0:21:25.480
<v Speaker 2>Well, there was that church. What is it Hillsong? There's

0:21:25.560 --> 0:21:27.960
<v Speaker 2>that church. I must have told this on the podcast before,

0:21:28.040 --> 0:21:29.840
<v Speaker 2>but there were a bunch of dudes that tried to

0:21:29.880 --> 0:21:32.840
<v Speaker 2>recruit me to start going to Hillsong in Manhattan, and

0:21:32.960 --> 0:21:35.600
<v Speaker 2>I checked their services. It was a big church where

0:21:35.600 --> 0:21:38.679
<v Speaker 2>they like rocked and rolled and they had a band.

0:21:39.480 --> 0:21:44.800
<v Speaker 2>This isn't this isn't your grandpa's Christian church. This is young.

0:21:44.960 --> 0:21:48.720
<v Speaker 2>We have long hair. We all have long hair. Everybody

0:21:48.800 --> 0:21:51.880
<v Speaker 2>here has got long hair. We've all gotten to third

0:21:51.960 --> 0:21:54.720
<v Speaker 2>base so many times. Third base is nothing to us.

0:21:55.160 --> 0:21:57.960
<v Speaker 2>Hit it on a rock and roll drum set, and

0:21:58.240 --> 0:21:59.639
<v Speaker 2>I think the guy that ran it there was a

0:21:59.680 --> 0:22:01.720
<v Speaker 2>big documented about what a creepy was like, you know,

0:22:02.119 --> 0:22:05.440
<v Speaker 2>of course, and so there were a group of male

0:22:05.560 --> 0:22:08.680
<v Speaker 2>models that tried to recruit me to start going to

0:22:09.680 --> 0:22:15.920
<v Speaker 2>was one of them someone we know, yes, And it

0:22:16.080 --> 0:22:18.960
<v Speaker 2>was somewhere in Manhattan. I think it was, like, yeah,

0:22:19.119 --> 0:22:21.840
<v Speaker 2>it was somewhere in the thirties near Madison Square Garden

0:22:22.200 --> 0:22:24.040
<v Speaker 2>and they would roll out of there and it would

0:22:24.040 --> 0:22:27.160
<v Speaker 2>be like a thousand people leaving church on a Thursday

0:22:27.240 --> 0:22:29.159
<v Speaker 2>night or Friday night or whenever it was. And so

0:22:29.359 --> 0:22:31.159
<v Speaker 2>the way they tried to recruit me when I was

0:22:31.280 --> 0:22:33.879
<v Speaker 2>like definitely no for me, Yeah, but good luck with

0:22:34.000 --> 0:22:39.080
<v Speaker 2>everything you're doing. See at the Pearly Gates, they were like,

0:22:39.160 --> 0:22:42.480
<v Speaker 2>do we're starting a soccer team and do you want

0:22:42.480 --> 0:22:44.160
<v Speaker 2>to play? Because we heard you played, So I said, sure,

0:22:44.280 --> 0:22:45.919
<v Speaker 2>I'll do that. So I would meet them after they

0:22:45.960 --> 0:22:48.320
<v Speaker 2>had left the service and we would walk down to

0:22:48.440 --> 0:22:51.960
<v Speaker 2>an astrotur field on one of the piers, and they

0:22:52.000 --> 0:22:55.480
<v Speaker 2>were lights. And the first game we played that I

0:22:55.600 --> 0:23:00.400
<v Speaker 2>played with them especially was vers a group of Mexican men.

0:23:00.680 --> 0:23:03.119
<v Speaker 2>I would say Mexican American, but I think these guys

0:23:03.680 --> 0:23:07.399
<v Speaker 2>were new to New York City and they were wearing

0:23:07.520 --> 0:23:10.200
<v Speaker 2>their work clothes, so they would have jeans that had

0:23:10.240 --> 0:23:12.800
<v Speaker 2>paint all over them, and they would have they were landscapers.

0:23:12.800 --> 0:23:15.080
<v Speaker 2>They were hard working, blue collar at Mexican American guys,

0:23:16.359 --> 0:23:20.760
<v Speaker 2>and they beat the shit out of us of they

0:23:21.400 --> 0:23:25.639
<v Speaker 2>all had worked their fingers to the bone, like the

0:23:25.880 --> 0:23:28.600
<v Speaker 2>hard working men they are, and they come out and

0:23:28.720 --> 0:23:32.880
<v Speaker 2>beat all these male model Pridge boys who hadn't lifted

0:23:32.920 --> 0:23:35.640
<v Speaker 2>a finger also weren't working as models. They weren't even

0:23:35.760 --> 0:23:40.040
<v Speaker 2>taking photo shoots. They were on set sticktting shoots. And

0:23:40.640 --> 0:23:43.400
<v Speaker 2>I remember just having a ball because all these guys

0:23:43.400 --> 0:23:48.200
<v Speaker 2>who had just left Hillsong were like fuck damn it,

0:23:48.680 --> 0:23:51.119
<v Speaker 2>like they were. We were just losing four to one

0:23:51.280 --> 0:23:55.879
<v Speaker 2>within fifteen minutes, within seven minutes. God isn't real.

0:23:56.600 --> 0:23:58.320
<v Speaker 1>I both, I know.

0:23:59.200 --> 0:24:03.080
<v Speaker 2>And it's like the meek will inherit the goals because

0:24:03.160 --> 0:24:06.480
<v Speaker 2>they smoked us for an hour and it made me

0:24:06.840 --> 0:24:10.680
<v Speaker 2>so happy. I was like loving it. God damn it.

0:24:10.760 --> 0:24:13.040
<v Speaker 2>It made me so happy. Anyways, here's one for you.

<v Speaker 2>Man may have died never knowing he had three penises,

0:24:30.359 --> 0:24:32.520
<v Speaker 2>And you say to yourself, how wouldn't you know? Well,

0:24:32.560 --> 0:24:35.359
<v Speaker 2>I'll get into it. This was a newsweek written by

0:24:35.600 --> 0:24:40.000
<v Speaker 2>Jess Thompson, who always gets to cover the most outrageous stories,

0:24:40.119 --> 0:24:42.320
<v Speaker 2>so that's why we call her the best in the biz.

0:24:43.119 --> 0:24:46.720
<v Speaker 2>A man has been discovered to have two extra penises

0:24:46.840 --> 0:24:50.840
<v Speaker 2>by med students dissecting his body. What a surprise, What

0:24:55.800 --> 0:25:00.920
<v Speaker 2>been found to have three penises. I can say, there's

0:25:00.920 --> 0:25:02.119
<v Speaker 2>a lot of people on this planet.

0:25:02.160 --> 0:25:03.000
<v Speaker 1>There's a lot of people.

0:25:03.119 --> 0:25:04.760
<v Speaker 2>I guess we're not a billion dudes.

0:25:04.960 --> 0:25:08.159
<v Speaker 3>I guess we're not all getting dissected. Right, that's of

0:25:08.359 --> 0:25:09.960
<v Speaker 3>the people who've gotten dissected.

0:25:10.040 --> 0:25:13.000

0:25:24.800 --> 0:25:28.919
<v Speaker 2>that would be so much better. Oh yeah, we did

0:25:29.000 --> 0:25:31.159
<v Speaker 2>the guy in twenty twenty who had it stitched to

0:25:31.240 --> 0:25:33.760
<v Speaker 2>his arm to recover and then got it successfully put

0:25:33.800 --> 0:25:37.520
<v Speaker 2>back on. I think he's hanging in there. Yeah. The

0:25:37.640 --> 0:25:41.239
<v Speaker 2>incredibly rare triple penis phenomenon was found by students at

0:25:41.240 --> 0:25:43.960
<v Speaker 2>the University of Birmingham Medical School in the UK during

0:25:44.040 --> 0:25:46.159
<v Speaker 2>a dissection of a seventy eight year old man who

0:25:46.240 --> 0:25:49.040
<v Speaker 2>had donated his body to science. Great thing to do, awesome,

0:25:50.640 --> 0:25:54.240
<v Speaker 2>According to a new paper in the publication the.

0:25:54.320 --> 0:25:56.920
<v Speaker 1>Reason he dedicated, He's like, I have a feeling I

0:25:57.000 --> 0:25:57.760
<v Speaker 1>have two board dicks.

0:25:57.760 --> 0:26:03.280
<v Speaker 2>I don't know about superprise. No matter what happens to me,

0:26:03.320 --> 0:26:06.160
<v Speaker 2>I want to donate at least my lower half to science.

0:26:08.080 --> 0:26:10.640
<v Speaker 2>According to the researchers, the man may have never known

0:26:10.800 --> 0:26:13.840
<v Speaker 2>that he had these three penises. This core. This condition,

0:26:14.000 --> 0:26:17.640
<v Speaker 2>known as trifa. Oh I guess it's phallus so triphalia

0:26:17.840 --> 0:26:22.359
<v Speaker 2>or triphalia, was only seen in a human for the

0:26:22.440 --> 0:26:24.720
<v Speaker 2>first time in twenty twenty in a newborn, and is

0:26:24.800 --> 0:26:30.320
<v Speaker 2>thought to possibly affect one in every six million live berths.

0:26:30.680 --> 0:26:34.600
<v Speaker 2>Wow wow, Like you said, it just hasn't been discovered,

0:26:34.680 --> 0:26:36.520
<v Speaker 2>but it's probably out there and.

0:26:38.760 --> 0:26:41.879
<v Speaker 3>Have we had so That means it's more common to

0:26:41.920 --> 0:26:44.600
<v Speaker 3>have two penises. But is it more common to have

0:26:44.720 --> 0:26:46.280
<v Speaker 3>two penises that are visible?

0:26:47.119 --> 0:26:47.720
<v Speaker 2>I think so?

0:26:48.240 --> 0:26:48.520
<v Speaker 1>Wow?

0:26:48.960 --> 0:26:53.800
<v Speaker 2>Okay, okay, trifolia or tripflia. I'll go with trifolia. That

0:26:53.920 --> 0:26:58.720
<v Speaker 2>makes sense. Is a rare congenital anomaly describing the presence

0:26:58.760 --> 0:27:02.679
<v Speaker 2>of three distinct penal chefs fun has only been reported

0:27:02.720 --> 0:27:05.040
<v Speaker 2>once in literature, the researchers wrote in the new paper.

0:27:05.080 --> 0:27:09.760
<v Speaker 2>Without dissection, this anatomical variation would have remained undiscovered, suggesting

0:27:09.800 --> 0:27:15.800
<v Speaker 2>the prevalence of polyphailure or polyphalia may be greater than expected.

0:27:15.960 --> 0:27:20.479
<v Speaker 2>Having two penises, known as dip or die folia, has

0:27:20.560 --> 0:27:23.680
<v Speaker 2>been seen in around one hundred human cases and occurs

0:27:23.760 --> 0:27:27.520
<v Speaker 2>in every five point five million live births. Usually doctors

0:27:27.560 --> 0:27:30.119
<v Speaker 2>remove the extra penis at birth if they're externally visible,

0:27:30.240 --> 0:27:32.479
<v Speaker 2>but they are often left alone to go unnoticed if

0:27:32.560 --> 0:27:33.560
<v Speaker 2>hidden inside.

0:27:34.000 --> 0:27:36.440
<v Speaker 1>All right, there it is there, I got my head set.

0:27:36.880 --> 0:27:40.600
<v Speaker 2>It's an educational it is podcast. The seventy eight year

0:27:40.600 --> 0:27:44.160
<v Speaker 2>old man appeared to have normal genitals externally, but once

0:27:44.240 --> 0:27:48.200
<v Speaker 2>his penis was dissected, always fun, the students discovered two

0:27:48.440 --> 0:27:52.199
<v Speaker 2>other tiny, duplicate penises inside of his scrotum.

0:27:52.480 --> 0:27:55.680
<v Speaker 3>Ince, that's wild to me. I don't even understand where

0:27:55.720 --> 0:27:58.040
<v Speaker 3>there's where the space? Where does he find the space

0:27:58.119 --> 0:27:58.960
<v Speaker 3>for all these digs?

0:28:00.400 --> 0:28:03.720
<v Speaker 2>This guy is a great story. Three condo of penises.

0:28:03.920 --> 0:28:06.240
<v Speaker 2>He's just he's rolled each one up.

0:28:06.640 --> 0:28:10.119
<v Speaker 1>They're all very precious to him. They sparked joy, and

0:28:10.240 --> 0:28:10.880
<v Speaker 1>he's tucked.

0:28:10.680 --> 0:28:14.560
<v Speaker 2>Him away inside his scrolled them. But they do spark joy. Anyways,

0:28:14.640 --> 0:28:17.119
<v Speaker 2>we'll get over all the ding dong talk. I'll just

0:28:17.160 --> 0:28:20.280
<v Speaker 2>give you some of the highlights to get to the end. So,

0:28:20.440 --> 0:28:24.680
<v Speaker 2>because they were not externally visible, the man may not

0:28:24.800 --> 0:28:27.720
<v Speaker 2>have known he had this unique condition. But here's what's interesting.

0:28:28.680 --> 0:28:31.920
<v Speaker 2>He may have experienced pain during sex during due to

0:28:32.040 --> 0:28:36.879
<v Speaker 2>having the extra penises becoming erect. What. Yeah, so if

0:28:36.920 --> 0:28:40.680
<v Speaker 2>the man's extra penises had extra urethras, it could have

0:28:40.720 --> 0:28:45.520
<v Speaker 2>also exposed him to an increased risk of urinary track infections. Luckily,

0:28:45.560 --> 0:28:49.840
<v Speaker 2>the man's uretha merely ran through the secondary penis into

0:28:50.000 --> 0:28:52.960
<v Speaker 2>the primary penis without any dead ends, so it actually connected.

0:28:53.080 --> 0:28:57.520
<v Speaker 2>That's so crazy, I mean, to get three erections.

0:28:57.240 --> 0:28:59.520
<v Speaker 1>And also that your balls just stick up in the air.

0:29:00.480 --> 0:29:03.080
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, just like when you're folding a fitted sheet, You're

0:29:03.160 --> 0:29:07.560
<v Speaker 2>just like, how do I do this? It's like a

0:29:07.600 --> 0:29:10.480
<v Speaker 2>squirrel scoot sidediver and the woman's like, I think maybe

0:29:10.600 --> 0:29:12.440
<v Speaker 2>let's just keep it above the way.

0:29:12.760 --> 0:29:15.720
<v Speaker 1>I think he had an idea. I think he had

0:29:15.800 --> 0:29:18.560
<v Speaker 1>an ankling me too.

0:29:20.240 --> 0:29:23.280
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, they didn't cause him any major harm. He

0:29:23.400 --> 0:29:27.720
<v Speaker 2>may not have noticed during lifetime, that's all. But yeah,

0:29:27.840 --> 0:29:29.600
<v Speaker 2>it was he had a para lack of symptoms and

0:29:29.680 --> 0:29:32.520
<v Speaker 2>probably benign nature. The researchers wrote. Again, it says at

0:29:32.520 --> 0:29:35.120
<v Speaker 2>the end, this is only the second ever discovered and

0:29:35.200 --> 0:29:40.280
<v Speaker 2>reported case of trifolia. Or yeah, try failure. So anyways,

0:29:40.840 --> 0:29:43.480
<v Speaker 2>that's an interesting banana. That's a simple banana. That is

0:29:43.720 --> 0:29:47.920
<v Speaker 2>very fascinating. I feel terrible for that guy. I don't

0:29:48.000 --> 0:29:51.520
<v Speaker 2>think that's anything to be pumped about.

0:29:51.880 --> 0:29:55.120
<v Speaker 3>No, And also I would just say once again, we're

0:29:55.160 --> 0:29:58.440
<v Speaker 3>a big fan of men going to the doctor here

0:29:58.560 --> 0:30:03.600
<v Speaker 3>in Bananas. Guys, if you've noticed something slightly strange, like

0:30:03.720 --> 0:30:07.200
<v Speaker 3>maybe you have two more penises inside your balls, go

0:30:07.680 --> 0:30:08.400
<v Speaker 3>to the doctor.

0:30:09.000 --> 0:30:11.160
<v Speaker 1>Just ask somebody, go to the doctor.

0:30:11.720 --> 0:30:16.280
<v Speaker 2>It is so weird. It is like they and it's

0:30:16.600 --> 0:30:19.840
<v Speaker 2>our friends are pretty uh, pretty good about it. They'll

0:30:19.880 --> 0:30:21.840
<v Speaker 2>go get things checked out, and it's saved some of

0:30:21.880 --> 0:30:24.640
<v Speaker 2>their lives in recent years. I know a few. I

0:30:24.800 --> 0:30:28.120
<v Speaker 2>know a few who do not go. I know too.

0:30:28.760 --> 0:30:30.560
<v Speaker 2>I know you just see a guy with like a

0:30:30.680 --> 0:30:32.400
<v Speaker 2>limp and you're like, what's up, and they're like, yeah,

0:30:32.440 --> 0:30:34.440
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. And then ten years go by and

0:30:34.480 --> 0:30:38.560
<v Speaker 2>you're like, there's a solution for this. First, there's so

0:30:38.720 --> 0:30:42.560
<v Speaker 2>many people who can probably fix this problem. Just go go, go,

0:30:43.000 --> 0:30:45.480
<v Speaker 2>go get a physical guys. I know things cost money,

0:30:45.520 --> 0:30:47.680
<v Speaker 2>and insurance is harder and harder to get if you're

0:30:47.680 --> 0:30:49.960
<v Speaker 2>in the United States, but go to the dentist once

0:30:50.000 --> 0:30:52.520
<v Speaker 2>a year. Get them, get them scrubbed, get them scrubbed,

0:30:53.160 --> 0:30:55.760
<v Speaker 2>get them floss, get them scrubbed. And my hygienis goes,

0:30:55.800 --> 0:30:57.280
<v Speaker 2>do you floss every day? I go, no, I do not.

0:30:57.400 --> 0:30:59.600
<v Speaker 2>She goes, thank you for your honesty, And I was like,

0:30:59.880 --> 0:31:02.600
<v Speaker 2>now you and I were on the same wavelength.

0:31:04.960 --> 0:31:05.600
<v Speaker 1>You know what I got.

0:31:05.800 --> 0:31:08.400
<v Speaker 3>I got a little machine. I got a little flossing machine.

0:31:09.200 --> 0:31:09.960
<v Speaker 2>What does that mean.

0:31:10.440 --> 0:31:14.880
<v Speaker 3>It's like it's shaped like a toothbrush, but at the

0:31:14.960 --> 0:31:18.160
<v Speaker 3>top it has like a flossing head, and then it

0:31:18.360 --> 0:31:20.560
<v Speaker 3>vibrates and so then you can just like pop pop

0:31:20.600 --> 0:31:24.720
<v Speaker 3>pop pop pop, real fast, and it just goes in

0:31:24.800 --> 0:31:27.520
<v Speaker 3>between as you and I don't know. I have no

0:31:27.600 --> 0:31:29.680
<v Speaker 3>idea if it's been working or not, because.

0:31:29.400 --> 0:31:32.400
<v Speaker 2>I floss when I travel because in my likedop kit,

0:31:32.520 --> 0:31:34.680
<v Speaker 2>my travel doctors have floss. And then you always have

0:31:34.840 --> 0:31:37.200
<v Speaker 2>like downtime when you're you know, when you're vacation, and

0:31:37.280 --> 0:31:39.600
<v Speaker 2>so I just find myself floss and once twice a

0:31:39.720 --> 0:31:43.520
<v Speaker 2>day when I'm on vacation. My oral health is through

0:31:43.800 --> 0:31:46.640
<v Speaker 2>the roof good guys. Go to the doctor, go to

0:31:46.640 --> 0:31:48.320
<v Speaker 2>the dentists, Go get things checked out. Go get this

0:31:48.440 --> 0:31:50.680
<v Speaker 2>moles checked out. Go to the dermatologist.

0:31:51.360 --> 0:31:55.560
<v Speaker 3>Oh my god, I've been trying to get a dermatologist appointment,

0:31:56.800 --> 0:31:59.800
<v Speaker 3>and so I just looked up one. They're like, here

0:31:59.800 --> 0:32:02.480
<v Speaker 3>you here's a dermatologist. Go to this dermatologist.

0:32:02.520 --> 0:32:03.960
<v Speaker 2>I was like, oh, they're pretty close. Oh they have

0:32:04.080 --> 0:32:06.240
<v Speaker 2>an availability. I was able to do everything online.

0:32:06.240 --> 0:32:07.080
<v Speaker 1>I was like, look at this.

0:32:07.200 --> 0:32:07.960
<v Speaker 2>The future is great.

0:32:08.040 --> 0:32:11.160
<v Speaker 3>This new fangled website that just recommends doctors to me

0:32:11.360 --> 0:32:14.680
<v Speaker 3>is really useful. And I get there and I sit down.

0:32:14.760 --> 0:32:18.000
<v Speaker 3>First off, their blood pressure machine is broken, and they're like.

0:32:18.000 --> 0:32:21.440
<v Speaker 2>Are you sure? Are you sure your blood pressure.

0:32:21.120 --> 0:32:23.760
<v Speaker 3>Isn't forty over sixteen or whatever?

0:32:23.760 --> 0:32:27.080
<v Speaker 1>And I was like, it's wrong. I have, if anything,

0:32:27.120 --> 0:32:28.200
<v Speaker 1>I have high blood pressure.

0:32:28.720 --> 0:32:31.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I'm not dead. I didn't die three days ago.

0:32:31.320 --> 0:32:33.480
<v Speaker 2>And they come in today and then.

0:32:33.640 --> 0:32:34.120
<v Speaker 1>She sits down.

0:32:34.160 --> 0:32:35.720
<v Speaker 3>She's like, all right, so we're just doing a general

0:32:35.840 --> 0:32:37.240
<v Speaker 3>check up. I'm like, oh no, I'm just here for

0:32:37.480 --> 0:32:40.160
<v Speaker 3>like a skin check, you know. And she's like, oh,

0:32:40.320 --> 0:32:41.600
<v Speaker 3>I'm not a dermatologist.

0:32:42.200 --> 0:32:44.400
<v Speaker 2>Oh good, oh good.

0:32:45.120 --> 0:32:48.160
<v Speaker 3>After all of the things, all of the steps, all

0:32:48.280 --> 0:32:51.400
<v Speaker 3>of waiting in the thing, getting in, sitting down, filling

0:32:51.440 --> 0:32:54.440
<v Speaker 3>out all the information, and I was like, I can't.

0:32:54.880 --> 0:32:56.400
<v Speaker 1>I was like, you can't charge me for this because

0:32:56.520 --> 0:32:57.160
<v Speaker 1>I have a doctor.

0:32:57.160 --> 0:33:00.560
<v Speaker 2>I've been going to the doctor, Like, yeah, so you

0:33:00.840 --> 0:33:02.400
<v Speaker 2>lied to me. Well, I have a great one. I'll

0:33:02.440 --> 0:33:04.560
<v Speaker 2>refer you off air, but I have an excellent one

0:33:04.640 --> 0:33:06.760
<v Speaker 2>and I'm always able to schedule appointment within a couple

0:33:06.800 --> 0:33:10.239
<v Speaker 2>of weeks. That's great. And I had what I had

0:33:10.240 --> 0:33:12.080
<v Speaker 2>a different one when I first moved out here, and

0:33:13.200 --> 0:33:17.440
<v Speaker 2>the only reason I switched was every time I think

0:33:17.440 --> 0:33:19.880
<v Speaker 2>I went three times, they would have like a med

0:33:19.960 --> 0:33:22.360
<v Speaker 2>student with them, but they wouldn't give me like too

0:33:22.480 --> 0:33:24.760
<v Speaker 2>much of a heads up. So you know, there's a

0:33:24.800 --> 0:33:27.000
<v Speaker 2>point where you're sitting there in your underwear and they're

0:33:27.040 --> 0:33:29.600
<v Speaker 2>checking all your freckles and moles and checking your skin,

0:33:30.160 --> 0:33:31.720
<v Speaker 2>and so I'm just staying there and then there's just

0:33:31.840 --> 0:33:34.200
<v Speaker 2>like a twenty year old just with a clipboard, just

0:33:34.840 --> 0:33:36.760
<v Speaker 2>and I was like, this is I didn't sign up

0:33:36.800 --> 0:33:39.320
<v Speaker 2>for this, to be honest with you, Like it was

0:33:39.440 --> 0:33:41.800
<v Speaker 2>just a strange thing to be like, yeah, I want

0:33:41.960 --> 0:33:44.240
<v Speaker 2>all of my arms so you can check my armpits

0:33:44.280 --> 0:33:46.800
<v Speaker 2>and between my fingers and toes, but it is kind

0:33:46.840 --> 0:33:49.360

0:38:29.000 --> 0:38:30.279

0:38:30.360 --> 0:38:33.279
<v Speaker 2>competition or a contest at all. But I wear a

0:38:33.400 --> 0:38:36.279

<v Speaker 2>Best in the biz, best in the beeswax.

0:39:51.160 --> 0:39:54.839
<v Speaker 3>The Conquer community has been rocked with accusations of cheating

0:39:54.920 --> 0:39:59.120
<v Speaker 3>during its World Conquer Championship. You're forgiven for not knowing

0:39:59.160 --> 0:40:00.799
<v Speaker 3>what the hell I'm talking about, because I'm just learning

0:40:00.800 --> 0:40:02.240
<v Speaker 3>about all this myself.

0:40:02.680 --> 0:40:02.960
<v Speaker 2>Okay.

0:40:03.200 --> 0:40:06.440

<v Speaker 2>No idea what he's talking about.

0:40:12.400 --> 0:40:16.720
<v Speaker 3>It's a fun, folksy game played in Great Britain and Ireland.

0:40:17.120 --> 0:40:23.160
<v Speaker 3>Players tie seeds found in horse chestnut trees known as conquers,

0:40:23.880 --> 0:40:29.400
<v Speaker 3>onto a string, then swing their respective conquers at the

0:40:29.600 --> 0:40:34.400
<v Speaker 3>opponent's conquer in an attempt to smash the opposing conquer.

0:40:34.880 --> 0:40:39.319
<v Speaker 3>If that made any sense to you, You're doing great, Yeah,

0:40:39.360 --> 0:40:40.000
<v Speaker 3>you're doing You.

0:40:40.120 --> 0:40:43.800
<v Speaker 2>Have a great visual mind, because I'm I'm picturing something,

0:40:43.840 --> 0:40:44.680
<v Speaker 2>but I think I'm wrong.

0:40:45.080 --> 0:40:50.040
<v Speaker 3>Humans can truly turn anything into a competition. A lot

0:40:50.160 --> 0:40:52.279
<v Speaker 3>of you may just be finding out that there's even

0:40:52.320 --> 0:40:54.799
<v Speaker 3>a game based around this. Well, let me blow your

0:40:54.840 --> 0:40:57.239
<v Speaker 3>mind even further, but letting you know that there's a

0:40:57.320 --> 0:41:00.520
<v Speaker 3>World Conquer Championship for the best conquer players come together

0:41:01.200 --> 0:41:04.200
<v Speaker 3>find out who is the toughest nut to crack. The

0:41:04.360 --> 0:41:11.960
<v Speaker 3>recent championship tournament, held in Southwick, Northamptonshire Shire, became a

0:41:12.080 --> 0:41:13.880
<v Speaker 3>hotbed of controversy.

0:41:14.480 --> 0:41:16.280
<v Speaker 1>It's eighty two.

0:41:16.360 --> 0:41:20.520
<v Speaker 3>Year old winner David Jackins. Who is a picture of him.

0:41:21.000 --> 0:41:28.200
<v Speaker 1>He is dressed like a medieval jester.

0:41:28.400 --> 0:41:28.640
<v Speaker 2>Elf.

0:41:31.120 --> 0:41:33.719
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I could picture that with a little bit of

0:41:34.560 --> 0:41:37.760
<v Speaker 3>a little bit of Shropshire thrown in. It's an eighty

0:41:37.800 --> 0:41:40.800
<v Speaker 3>two year old winner. David Jackins finally took home the

0:41:40.920 --> 0:41:48.560
<v Speaker 3>men's title after having competed in the competition for forty years. Wow,

0:41:49.200 --> 0:41:52.000
<v Speaker 3>and he had never taken the men's title. His victory

0:41:52.160 --> 0:41:55.920
<v Speaker 3>was immediately marred with controversy when a report published in

0:41:55.960 --> 0:42:01.080
<v Speaker 3>the Telegraph suspected he cheated by swapping his conquer for

0:42:01.239 --> 0:42:05.600
<v Speaker 3>one made Adam medal. The allegations were first raised by Jackins' opponent,

0:42:06.000 --> 0:42:12.120
<v Speaker 3>Alastao Johnson. Ferguson love these guys who founded He's ninety

0:42:12.280 --> 0:42:16.439
<v Speaker 3>thousand years old, who found it just a little hard

0:42:16.520 --> 0:42:21.160
<v Speaker 3>to believe that his conquer could be so easily obliterated

0:42:21.200 --> 0:42:25.320
<v Speaker 3>by Jackins conquer on the first strike. When tournament organizers

0:42:25.360 --> 0:42:27.959
<v Speaker 3>searched jackins pocket after he won the tournament, they found

0:42:27.960 --> 0:42:31.080
<v Speaker 3>a steel conquer in one of his pockets. Jackins denies

0:42:31.120 --> 0:42:34.560
<v Speaker 3>having used the steel conquering competition, saying that he only

0:42:34.760 --> 0:42:36.880
<v Speaker 3>carried it around to entertain children.

0:42:38.800 --> 0:42:39.919
<v Speaker 2>I don't know, hey.

0:42:40.960 --> 0:42:44.000
<v Speaker 3>For American readers, this is like when a baseball player

0:42:44.080 --> 0:42:47.520
<v Speaker 3>claims to have accidentally brought their corked batting practice bat

0:42:47.560 --> 0:42:52.400
<v Speaker 3>two again. After the discovery of the steel conquer, Jackins

0:42:52.480 --> 0:42:55.160
<v Speaker 3>was quoted as saying, it's impossible to cheat at conquers.

0:42:55.200 --> 0:42:58.360
<v Speaker 3>It's a load of nonsense. The events chairman, Jim Packer

0:42:58.440 --> 0:43:01.960
<v Speaker 3>took Jackins side, saying somebody's a sore loser. I think, oh,

0:43:02.080 --> 0:43:05.759
<v Speaker 3>the event's chairman took jack inside all right. The investigation

0:43:05.960 --> 0:43:09.200
<v Speaker 3>is ongoing, but event officials have already said that Jackins

0:43:09.360 --> 0:43:12.440
<v Speaker 3>was being closely monitored throughout the entire tournament, so it

0:43:12.520 --> 0:43:15.360
<v Speaker 3>seems unlikely that he could have been using an illegal

0:43:15.480 --> 0:43:17.839
<v Speaker 3>conquer for all or even some of the time.

0:43:18.600 --> 0:43:21.160
<v Speaker 2>It's got to sound different, right, Like you're not hitting

0:43:21.400 --> 0:43:24.319
<v Speaker 2>two nuts hitting each other is very different than one

0:43:24.520 --> 0:43:28.200
<v Speaker 2>steal and one. It's got to sound different, is my argument.

0:43:28.600 --> 0:43:31.240
<v Speaker 3>Also, don't understand where the conquer is when you're throwing

0:43:31.480 --> 0:43:33.880
<v Speaker 3>the other conquer at it. Is it on the ground

0:43:34.040 --> 0:43:35.759
<v Speaker 3>do they put their conquer on the ground you throw it?

0:43:36.160 --> 0:43:39.360
<v Speaker 3>Or is it is it hanging off something that you.

0:43:39.440 --> 0:43:42.040
<v Speaker 2>Well, I opened this story as you were talking, and

0:43:42.120 --> 0:43:45.520
<v Speaker 2>it appears like it's you swing it. You swing them

0:43:45.560 --> 0:43:48.279
<v Speaker 2>at each other at like chest height, like you kind

0:43:48.320 --> 0:43:53.760
<v Speaker 2>of flick it. Yeah, at like It's hard to describe,

0:43:53.800 --> 0:43:56.359
<v Speaker 2>but it's basically like if two somebody holds their nut

0:43:56.520 --> 0:43:58.480
<v Speaker 2>hanging and then another person's got it and they kind

0:43:58.520 --> 0:44:00.200
<v Speaker 2>of whip it over and try to crack it.

0:44:01.920 --> 0:44:02.280
<v Speaker 1>Crazy.

0:44:02.400 --> 0:44:05.640
<v Speaker 3>Okay, So and happier Conquer Championship news. A thirty four

0:44:05.719 --> 0:44:11.440
<v Speaker 3>year old American woman from Indianapolis name Kelsey bannce Bach

0:44:11.680 --> 0:44:16.040
<v Speaker 3>aka the Queen Conquer, walked away from the tournament as

0:44:16.080 --> 0:44:21.759
<v Speaker 3>its ultimate champion, having defeated Jackins in the cross gender finals.

0:44:22.600 --> 0:44:25.560
<v Speaker 3>It's the first time that America has won the competition

0:44:25.760 --> 0:44:29.439
<v Speaker 3>since its inception in nineteen sixty five.

0:44:29.560 --> 0:44:34.400
<v Speaker 2>Whoa Banana the Week? Banana of the Week? Kelsey? I

0:44:34.560 --> 0:44:36.960
<v Speaker 2>know two Kelsey's and they're both fun as hell. So

0:44:37.239 --> 0:44:40.839
<v Speaker 2>my opinion, everyone named Kelsey is fun as hell.

0:44:41.440 --> 0:44:46.040
<v Speaker 3>I mean, this is absolutely I mean, like, I have

0:44:46.120 --> 0:44:48.480
<v Speaker 3>so many questions. I want to watch competition, I want

0:44:48.520 --> 0:44:50.239
<v Speaker 3>to get into it, I want to go, I want

0:44:50.280 --> 0:44:53.560
<v Speaker 3>to go. This sounds fun. And everybody's real dressed up.

0:44:53.640 --> 0:44:56.960
<v Speaker 3>They got walnuts or chestnuts or whatever they got all

0:44:57.040 --> 0:44:57.840
<v Speaker 3>over their bodies.

0:44:59.160 --> 0:45:02.480
<v Speaker 2>So they think this old fart cheated and finally won

0:45:02.560 --> 0:45:08.200
<v Speaker 2>after forty years. Okay, so I guess one he probably

0:45:08.239 --> 0:45:10.200
<v Speaker 2>did cheat, because why would they ever search this guy's

0:45:10.239 --> 0:45:14.359
<v Speaker 2>pockets if they somebody somebody said something's not right here,

0:45:14.600 --> 0:45:16.440
<v Speaker 2>and then they gave him the old pat down and

0:45:16.520 --> 0:45:21.359
<v Speaker 2>they found the old steel conquer. M that's so he cheated. Well,

0:45:21.400 --> 0:45:24.080
<v Speaker 2>here's my question, he's seventy half wife.

0:45:26.600 --> 0:45:33.440
<v Speaker 3>How entertaining is the steel conquer for children? Do children

0:45:34.080 --> 0:45:38.239
<v Speaker 3>love just go ape shit for a steel conquer? I mean,

0:45:38.719 --> 0:45:41.839
<v Speaker 3>if the if the popularity of steel, if everybody's got

0:45:41.920 --> 0:45:44.759
<v Speaker 3>steel conquers in their pocket because children are just going

0:45:44.960 --> 0:45:48.120
<v Speaker 3>crazy for them. Maybe it's a little more understandable.

0:45:48.840 --> 0:45:53.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I don't imagined. I mean unless they're really really

0:45:53.480 --> 0:45:56.600
<v Speaker 2>bored in this town, and maybe they are. The idea

0:45:56.640 --> 0:45:59.920
<v Speaker 2>of just seeing a steel nut hanging on a string,

0:46:00.880 --> 0:46:03.239
<v Speaker 2>if that really lights your candle, then it might be

0:46:03.400 --> 0:46:06.080
<v Speaker 2>time to move to the next closest city and just

0:46:06.400 --> 0:46:09.440
<v Speaker 2>I don't know, take a pilates class, get into something else.

0:46:09.760 --> 0:46:14.600
<v Speaker 1>That's the part that that makes me suspicious the most

0:46:14.719 --> 0:46:16.000
<v Speaker 1>is that that was his reasoning.

0:46:17.680 --> 0:46:22.160
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I think you cheated, I guess I all right,

0:46:22.320 --> 0:46:27.960
<v Speaker 2>So when I played lacrosse, our team in Reisterstown, Maryland,

0:46:28.160 --> 0:46:31.840
<v Speaker 2>we were young guys and we were I don't know, ten, eleven, twelve,

0:46:32.640 --> 0:46:35.360
<v Speaker 2>and our team name was the Lightning at that so

0:46:35.440 --> 0:46:38.839
<v Speaker 2>we're the Racers down Lightning. But because of just other

0:46:38.960 --> 0:46:43.399
<v Speaker 2>teams being waspy lacrosse players and us having the most

0:46:43.480 --> 0:46:47.160
<v Speaker 2>diverse team by a mile, they everybody called our team

0:46:47.200 --> 0:46:49.360
<v Speaker 2>the junkyard Dogs. Are you joking?

0:46:50.239 --> 0:46:50.279
<v Speaker 4>No?

0:46:51.120 --> 0:46:53.480
<v Speaker 2>So, oh yeah, I know, it's crazy, And then we

0:46:53.600 --> 0:46:55.399
<v Speaker 2>lit them all up, so it worked. It was great,

0:46:55.520 --> 0:46:58.000
<v Speaker 2>Like we were the bad News Bears and we were

0:46:58.120 --> 0:47:00.360
<v Speaker 2>like the you know every sports movie. He was like

0:47:00.440 --> 0:47:03.080
<v Speaker 2>the Preps versus the Valley. We were the Valley. Yeah,

0:47:03.640 --> 0:47:08.239
<v Speaker 2>So to make to sort of split the difference, we

0:47:08.520 --> 0:47:12.320
<v Speaker 2>ended up being the Rattlesnakes. So then we became the

0:47:12.440 --> 0:47:16.120
<v Speaker 2>Reister's Down Rattlesnakes, which is truly badass snakes. That is

0:47:16.200 --> 0:47:20.880
<v Speaker 2>a great name for any sport. So we're warming up

0:47:20.920 --> 0:47:24.640
<v Speaker 2>before practice and we're just running drills. We're on our

0:47:24.680 --> 0:47:29.320
<v Speaker 2>half of the field and I just feel this like

0:47:29.480 --> 0:47:32.239
<v Speaker 2>hand on my shoulder and I look and it is

0:47:32.400 --> 0:47:37.239
<v Speaker 2>our goalies dad, who is older than most of the

0:47:37.280 --> 0:47:40.400
<v Speaker 2>other dads. He's probably sixty year old man, and he

0:47:40.560 --> 0:47:43.680
<v Speaker 2>has wandered out onto the field and he grabs me

0:47:43.800 --> 0:47:45.160
<v Speaker 2>by my shoulder and in the side of the helmet

0:47:45.200 --> 0:47:47.400
<v Speaker 2>and he goes, hey, Scottie, I gotta tell you something.

0:47:47.800 --> 0:47:52.440
<v Speaker 2>I go yeah. He goes rattle a little louder rattlesnake power,

0:47:53.640 --> 0:47:56.680
<v Speaker 2>and I go yeah. He goes, yeah, rattle a little

0:47:56.760 --> 0:48:01.480
<v Speaker 2>louder rattlesnake power, and I'm like And then he walks

0:48:01.520 --> 0:48:03.440
<v Speaker 2>over to another player and keeps doing that, and then

0:48:03.640 --> 0:48:06.320
<v Speaker 2>the coaches, grown men go get off the field. What

0:48:06.440 --> 0:48:09.799
<v Speaker 2>did you do it? I only found out about five

0:48:09.880 --> 0:48:13.200
<v Speaker 2>years ago that that man was a functioning alcohol When

0:48:13.239 --> 0:48:15.600
<v Speaker 2>you're young, you don't know that. But I just love

0:48:15.680 --> 0:48:17.920
<v Speaker 2>that he took the time to be like, I'm going

0:48:18.000 --> 0:48:20.360
<v Speaker 2>to go and press these guys with something I just

0:48:20.480 --> 0:48:25.120
<v Speaker 2>thought of right now. But the real result was total

0:48:25.200 --> 0:48:30.239
<v Speaker 2>and absolute confusion in the brain of a prepebescenter. But

0:48:30.440 --> 0:48:32.279
<v Speaker 2>just because you know, a full helmet and so there's

0:48:32.320 --> 0:48:38.080
<v Speaker 2>little airhole farriers and just just warm, warm whiskey bread

0:48:38.280 --> 0:48:43.319
<v Speaker 2>coming in there, Rat a little louder rattlesnake power. It's

0:48:43.400 --> 0:48:45.400
<v Speaker 2>so cool that he thought that was awesome. And I

0:48:45.600 --> 0:48:47.440
<v Speaker 2>hope he's still alive. And I would you.

0:48:47.440 --> 0:48:49.879
<v Speaker 3>Guys, would you guys say it to each other? Would

0:48:49.880 --> 0:48:52.200
<v Speaker 3>you guys say it to each other at games that

0:48:52.520 --> 0:48:52.880
<v Speaker 3>after that?

0:48:53.120 --> 0:48:56.400
<v Speaker 2>It didn't go beyond that day. And honestly, just because

0:48:56.440 --> 0:48:58.960
<v Speaker 2>I have a good memory, I'm probably the only player

0:48:59.040 --> 0:49:01.600
<v Speaker 2>on that field actually take that back. I remember some

0:49:01.680 --> 0:49:03.759
<v Speaker 2>of the other guys like all looking at each other

0:49:03.960 --> 0:49:05.600
<v Speaker 2>like what did he say to you? And we all

0:49:05.719 --> 0:49:09.520
<v Speaker 2>said it, and we're like, oh, okay, I should make

0:49:09.640 --> 0:49:12.320
<v Speaker 2>that a T shirt. You should make your T shirt

0:49:13.680 --> 0:49:16.200
<v Speaker 2>and I should make that rat a little louder Rattlesnake

0:49:16.280 --> 0:49:19.680
<v Speaker 2>power Man. It was so damn good.

0:49:19.880 --> 0:49:22.719
<v Speaker 1>I mean, if you're making a T shirt, it will

0:49:22.800 --> 0:49:24.399
<v Speaker 1>be I mean that is the best.

0:49:24.680 --> 0:49:28.160
<v Speaker 3>That is the best part about thinking something up is

0:49:28.239 --> 0:49:30.400
<v Speaker 3>that you say that thing and now it is a

0:49:30.480 --> 0:49:33.360
<v Speaker 3>concept in the world, and it travels through time and

0:49:33.560 --> 0:49:36.120
<v Speaker 3>space all the way here, and then you make that

0:49:36.280 --> 0:49:40.359
<v Speaker 3>T shirt and that drunk thought that that weirdo had

0:49:40.560 --> 0:49:43.880
<v Speaker 3>now at ten am it on a Sunday morning exists

0:49:43.920 --> 0:49:46.719
<v Speaker 3>in the world as a physical object in so many

0:49:46.760 --> 0:49:48.520
<v Speaker 3>in a totally different context.

0:49:48.760 --> 0:49:52.200
<v Speaker 2>It's the best part about stories. Well, I think you're right.

0:49:52.600 --> 0:49:55.879
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to honor that nameless man and his nameless son.

0:49:56.080 --> 0:49:58.960
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, it was like a ten am before the game,

0:49:59.040 --> 0:50:02.239
<v Speaker 2>and that guy was just like he was ready to go.

0:50:03.760 --> 0:50:04.080
<v Speaker 4>You don't know.

0:50:04.120 --> 0:50:05.520
<v Speaker 2>When you're a kid, you don't know. And then you

0:50:05.600 --> 0:50:07.920
<v Speaker 2>kind of look back and you're like uncle Tippy and

0:50:08.040 --> 0:50:10.200
<v Speaker 2>you're like, yeah, Uncle Tippy did always kind of smell

0:50:10.320 --> 0:50:12.200
<v Speaker 2>like my friends and I when we get back from

0:50:12.239 --> 0:50:16.200
<v Speaker 2>the bars at three am. That's what Uncle Tippy's for.

0:50:16.480 --> 0:50:17.440
<v Speaker 1>Send us home, Scottie.

0:50:17.920 --> 0:50:23.560
<v Speaker 2>Hmmm. Jody from Australia, I think sent this in. Also.

0:50:23.840 --> 0:50:27.920
<v Speaker 2>Nick Kpeel sent this in thanks guys, Thank you guys.

0:50:29.360 --> 0:50:32.920
<v Speaker 2>Hackers took over robotic vacuums to chase pets around the

0:50:33.000 --> 0:50:36.680
<v Speaker 2>yell slurs. Oh wow, fantastic. This was in The Verge,

0:50:36.719 --> 0:50:38.560
<v Speaker 2>written by Wes Davis, who is the best in the

0:50:38.600 --> 0:50:43.480
<v Speaker 2>slur business. Someone gained access to Ecovac's d bot XC

0:50:43.719 --> 0:50:46.799
<v Speaker 2>omni robotic vacuums across several US cities earlier this year

0:50:46.880 --> 0:50:50.440
<v Speaker 2>and used them to chase pets at yell slurs at

0:50:50.480 --> 0:50:51.120
<v Speaker 2>their owners.

0:50:52.520 --> 0:50:56.200
<v Speaker 3>I mean also that name that give me that name

0:50:56.239 --> 0:50:59.480
<v Speaker 3>of that robot that easy to rolls off the tongue name.

0:51:00.080 --> 0:51:02.680
<v Speaker 2>Oh Kurt, how could you ever forget the Ecovax d

0:51:02.800 --> 0:51:08.040
<v Speaker 2>bot X two omni robots vacuum. Not that it could

0:51:08.120 --> 0:51:12.160
<v Speaker 2>easily have been the eed x two, but no e

0:51:12.360 --> 0:51:15.919
<v Speaker 2>d x two with be erecked out dysfunction times Yes.

0:51:16.960 --> 0:51:19.520
<v Speaker 2>The Outlet spoke with multiple d bot x two owners

0:51:19.560 --> 0:51:22.040
<v Speaker 2>who said their d bot x two's had been hacked

0:51:22.320 --> 0:51:25.960
<v Speaker 2>in May, including Minnesota lawyer Daniel Swinson, who said he

0:51:26.080 --> 0:51:28.640
<v Speaker 2>was watching TV with his family when a noise like

0:51:28.719 --> 0:51:32.680
<v Speaker 2>a broken radio signal started coming from his robots speaker.

0:51:32.800 --> 0:51:35.839
<v Speaker 2>Why do they have speakers? Why that's insane. Yeah, well

0:51:35.880 --> 0:51:40.120
<v Speaker 2>they have to they have to go when they're all done. Yeah, yeah,

0:51:40.120 --> 0:51:43.000
<v Speaker 2>I have to make you feel good. Go home, he said.

0:51:43.040 --> 0:51:45.680
<v Speaker 2>He reset the password and reboot his robot. It began again,

0:51:45.760 --> 0:51:48.040
<v Speaker 2>only this time the sound was a clear voice. He

0:51:48.160 --> 0:51:53.319
<v Speaker 2>guessed it was a teenager's yelling slurs. Other owners from

0:51:53.360 --> 0:51:56.919
<v Speaker 2>El Paso and Los Angeles I've heard of that said

0:51:56.960 --> 0:51:59.600
<v Speaker 2>that their de bot was used to antagonize a dog

0:51:59.719 --> 0:52:03.520
<v Speaker 2>and yelling at it and chasing it. Ekovax told the statement,

0:52:03.600 --> 0:52:07.400
<v Speaker 2>I told an outlet and the statement, we've identified credential

0:52:07.480 --> 0:52:11.480
<v Speaker 2>stuffing event. Okay, it's called a credential stuffing event. R

0:52:12.120 --> 0:52:15.400
<v Speaker 2>and block that IP address from originating it or I

0:52:15.440 --> 0:52:17.440
<v Speaker 2>guess whoever did it can no longer do it. The

0:52:17.520 --> 0:52:20.959
<v Speaker 2>company sounded found no evidence, thank goodness, that user names

0:52:20.960 --> 0:52:24.360
<v Speaker 2>and passwords were collected by the attacker. So anyways, it

0:52:24.440 --> 0:52:26.960
<v Speaker 2>was a flaw demonstrated. Ecovac said they're going to resolve it.

0:52:27.040 --> 0:52:30.640
<v Speaker 2>Blue blah blah. But yeah, somebody's vacuum cleaners were chasing

0:52:30.719 --> 0:52:33.800
<v Speaker 2>their animals and yelling slurs. So wonderful, amazing.

0:52:33.920 --> 0:52:38.200
<v Speaker 3>Also, now that everything's starting to have a camera, I mean,

0:52:38.320 --> 0:52:40.080
<v Speaker 3>that's it that's what's happening.

0:52:40.120 --> 0:52:43.480
<v Speaker 2>Over, It's over. Everything has a camera now. Yeah, less

0:52:43.520 --> 0:52:46.879
<v Speaker 2>smart things go back to dumb things. Get a dumb

0:52:47.000 --> 0:52:50.719
<v Speaker 2>vacuum that sucks forever, and that's the only way to

0:52:50.760 --> 0:52:55.280
<v Speaker 2>live your life. Here's the dumb vacuums. Well, thank you Scotty,

0:52:56.520 --> 0:52:59.040
<v Speaker 2>Thank you Curdie B. You're the best in the Beeswex two.
