42
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:22,400
Speaker 5: don't come to me for anything important in the news,

43
00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:26,480
Speaker 5: Like when there's you know, some lady married a ghost

44
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:29,720
Speaker 5: of an old pirate, Like that's when I'm like, I

45
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:30,400

00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:33,120
Speaker 4: Like come to me for that. So I love this.

47
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:34,560
Speaker 4: Thank you guys for having me.

48
00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:37,280
Speaker 2: I think we did one of our early shows. We

49
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:40,959
Speaker 2: did do the woman who married a ghost. There's multiple

50
00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:43,919
Speaker 2: women who marry ghosts. There's like we've gotten a lot

51
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:45,880
Speaker 2: of those stories across the ears. Have you have you

52
00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:47,240
Speaker 2: covered any of those on ghosted.

53
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:52,640
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, you know love, love is love, you know.

54
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:56,760
Speaker 5: I want to celebrate all kinds of relationships.

55
00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:58,400
Speaker 2: Cupal, non corporeal.

56
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:02,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, it doesn't matter, you know, you do you you

57
00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:04,200
Speaker 5: know it's pride, you know. We we just got out

58
00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:07,760
Speaker 5: of Pride Month, and I say, celebrate whatever you're into,

59
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:11,440
Speaker 5: you know, if you if you're into people that have

60
00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:14,400
Speaker 5: been dead for three hundred years. But if as long

61
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:16,160
Speaker 5: as it's the spirit. I don't know if you know,

62
00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:18,520
Speaker 5: you know, the corpse, I don't know about that, but

63
00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:22,840
Speaker 5: you know, the spirit, the essence of somebody from from

64
00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:23,480
Speaker 5: the past.

65
00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:25,519
Speaker 4: It sounds great. Yeah, it's great.

66
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:26,120
Speaker 3: True.

67
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:27,720
Speaker 4: Where do they have to be you know?

68
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:28,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly.

69
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:29,359
Speaker 3: Yeah.

70
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:31,480
Speaker 4: They do always end bad, which I think is.

71
00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:34,000
Speaker 1: They always get cheated on or they always get divorced

72
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,320
Speaker 1: because something didn't work out, and I think that they

73
00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 1: just go I haven't been in the news in four months,

74
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:42,320
Speaker 1: so I better have something going on with my ghost marriage.

75
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:45,240
Speaker 1: But it's always a pirate and it's like and it's

76
00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:47,720
Speaker 1: such a whirlwind affair and the best lover they've ever

77
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:50,040
Speaker 1: had and all these things, and then it's like he

78
00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:52,440
Speaker 1: cheated on me, and I'm out the door.

79
00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:57,000
Speaker 3: And the British newspapers will not stop picking it up.

80
00:03:57,040 --> 00:03:58,080
Speaker 3: They're always from being.

81
00:03:58,160 --> 00:03:58,960
Speaker 4: Oh they love it.

82
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:01,640
Speaker 5: But you know, and I don't want to like blame

83
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:04,160
Speaker 5: these people that marry these ghosts, but of course shouldn't

84
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 5: they shouldn't they have seen right through them.

85
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:11,480
Speaker 3: That's right.

86
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:14,760
Speaker 2: Also, you would think the fact that they get divorced

87
00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:19,600
Speaker 2: is the is like, I think that's ten times crazier

88
00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:20,919
Speaker 2: than marrying a ghost.

89
00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:22,280
Speaker 4: That's see.

90
00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:25,440
Speaker 5: I think all the time about being a lawyer, and

91
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:29,680
Speaker 5: that's the specific kind of attorney I would like, the

92
00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:31,680
Speaker 5: ghost divorce attorney.

93
00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:34,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, you get it.

94
00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:36,719
Speaker 5: Yeah, you get a Ouiji board, you take it into

95
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:37,400
Speaker 5: the courtroom.

96
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:41,240
Speaker 3: I love it, just you pushing it over to no one,

97
00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:43,000
Speaker 3: Yes all the time, Yes, you're on.

98
00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:48,839
Speaker 4: Exactly. The board doesn't lie.

99
00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:53,719
Speaker 1: You just slowly spelled divorce and you wish it wasn't

100
00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:56,800
Speaker 1: so many letters. You're like, it's gonna get there, It's

101
00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:58,880
Speaker 1: gonna get there. Well, that's so.

102
00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:02,520
Speaker 2: I don't think I've ever actually done a wija board.

103
00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:06,080
Speaker 2: I think we happen. We recently got it in like

104
00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:08,440
Speaker 2: a a gift competition.

105
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:13,560
Speaker 4: Really yeah, competition, what do you mean?

106
00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:16,640
Speaker 2: My buddy Derek Brown runs this awesome thing called a

107
00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:23,880
Speaker 2: dice party, which is like a party, there's dice. They

108
00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:27,120
Speaker 2: go around the circle and anytime you get there's like

109
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:30,400
Speaker 2: three separate rounds. Everybody brings their own gift and then

110
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:32,520
Speaker 2: puts it in the center, and then there's three separate rounds,

111
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:36,640
Speaker 2: and if you roll doubles, you get to steal anybody

112
00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:40,360
Speaker 2: else's gift, so you can. You end up essentially like

113
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:42,839
Speaker 2: some people end up with like eight gifts and some

114
00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:46,440
Speaker 2: people end up with nothing. And Lauren had a good

115
00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:49,200
Speaker 2: night one night and ended up with like eight gifts

116
00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:51,920
Speaker 2: and one of them was a bunch of weed and

117
00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:57,080
Speaker 2: a wija board, and so we still haven't opened the

118
00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:57,880
Speaker 2: wija board yet.

119
00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:02,920
Speaker 5: So you know, they have a bad reputation. I think

120
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:05,719
Speaker 5: it's just bad press. They need a new publicist. And

121
00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:08,960
Speaker 5: I've honestly been trying to be the publicist for Reeki Boys,

122
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:10,279
Speaker 5: because it's.

123
00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:10,799
Speaker 3: Just the lawyer.

124
00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:13,200
Speaker 2: You're trying to be a publicist exactly.

125
00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:17,279
Speaker 5: I'm speaking up for the debt and I just think

126
00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:21,640
Speaker 5: that they need a rebranding because here's what my theory

127
00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:26,400
Speaker 5: has always been, that people like what could go wrong?

128
00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:29,039
Speaker 5: You put it next to Candyland and Monopoly and like

129
00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:31,880
Speaker 5: this is the one toy at Toys r US where

130
00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:35,960
Speaker 5: you can actually talk to possibly demons. So yeah, it

131
00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:39,320
Speaker 5: goes wrong. I think that people just start playing with

132
00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:43,200
Speaker 5: it and don't know what they're doing, and I don't know.

133
00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:45,279
Speaker 5: I hear a lot of stories that kind of convinced

134
00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:47,479
Speaker 5: me that some weird stuff has happened. But also I

135
00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:49,080
Speaker 5: think a lot of it is just like fun and

136
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:50,960
Speaker 5: like people moving it whatever.

137
00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:52,960
Speaker 4: But who knows.

138
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:55,200
Speaker 5: It's like you're kind of opening It's like you're going

139
00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:59,320
Speaker 5: into a chat room and whoever. It's just like the Internet.

140
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:01,640
Speaker 5: You can meet the best person you've ever met, you

141
00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:06,560
Speaker 5: could meet some weird person. So you know, people aren't

142
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:08,640
Speaker 5: safe with it, and a lot of people had scary

143
00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:11,440
Speaker 5: experiences as a kid. And then like the Exor system,

144
00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:14,640
Speaker 5: it just has bad press. So I really want to

145
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:19,240
Speaker 5: help the Ouiji board community and say give it another shot,

146
00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:19,600
Speaker 5: you know.

147
00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it's just time for an update too. Like

148
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:24,960
Speaker 1: I think that there should be a new thing. Ouigi

149
00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:28,040
Speaker 1: feels very analog, it feels very old. It feels like

150
00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:31,239
Speaker 1: we do need somebody just needs to invent not only

151
00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:34,400
Speaker 1: a new way of communicating with the other side that

152
00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:37,800
Speaker 1: we all learn to love, but also a movie franchise

153
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:39,760
Speaker 1: or something along those lines that you go.

154
00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:44,880
Speaker 3: Just feels tired. A rom com.

155
00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:49,000
Speaker 2: With it again with a dead with a ghost.

156
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:50,200
Speaker 4: It's like you got a.

157
00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:55,040
Speaker 3: Communication, Yeah you got hail.

158
00:07:56,600 --> 00:08:01,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, uh, Kurt, bring that Ouiji board, crack it open.

159
00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:03,400
Speaker 1: We'll go to a bar and sit outside, and we'll

160
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:05,720
Speaker 1: do it in a public space so it doesn't open,

161
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:08,240
Speaker 1: you know, a rift to the other side in your

162
00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:10,440
Speaker 1: own home where your children eat clay.

00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:36,600
Speaker 2: It's yeah, it's not the Washington Post and it's not

173
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:38,160
Speaker 2: the New York Times.

174
00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:41,040
Speaker 3: In one direction. Yeah, that's right.

175
00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:43,720
Speaker 2: It's a couple of words put together sounds official.

176
00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:44,120
Speaker 3: Here we go.

177
00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:49,400
Speaker 2: Harvard professor who researches honesty accused of falsifying data. I

178
00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:53,480
Speaker 2: love this so much. As written by Matt Delaney. Matt

179
00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:54,880
Speaker 2: Delaney best.

180
00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:56,640
Speaker 3: In the biz, really good at writing.

181
00:08:56,760 --> 00:09:02,640
Speaker 2: An award winning Harvard professor who studies honesty has been

182
00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:06,600
Speaker 2: placed on leave after being accused of using fraudulent data

183
00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:10,520
Speaker 2: in her research. Francesca Gino, I mean, I mean it's

184
00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:13,880
Speaker 2: so crazy Harvard, Like, to become a professor at Harvard

185
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:18,320
Speaker 2: is so difficult, then to win awards, and then also

186
00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:21,840
Speaker 2: to I mean this, Honestly, she's studying honesty because she

187
00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:22,960
Speaker 2: loves to lie.

188
00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:24,280
Speaker 3: But that's right.

189
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:29,400
Speaker 2: Francesca Gino, a behavioral science professor at the Harvard Business School,

190
00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:34,920
Speaker 2: was accused of fabricating data on four different research papers

191
00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:38,200
Speaker 2: that spend more than a decade, according to a report

192
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:40,920
Speaker 2: in the Chronicle of Higher Education. The allegations arose after

193
00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:44,200
Speaker 2: a twenty twelve paper Miss Gino co authored for the

194
00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:47,440
Speaker 2: Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, one of America's

195
00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:52,480
Speaker 2: most prestigic prestigious academic journals, was attracted by the journal

196
00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:58,520
Speaker 2: for falsifying results. That's fascinating that it took them eleven

197
00:09:58,640 --> 00:09:59,920
Speaker 2: years to figure it out.

198
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:01,839
Speaker 3: Oh, you admit it.

199
00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:05,200
Speaker 2: The faulty paper, according to a report in Britain's Guardian newspaper,

200
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:09,560
Speaker 2: found that people who signed quote truthfulness declarations at the

201
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:14,079
Speaker 2: top of tax and insurance forms were more honest than

202
00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:17,640
Speaker 2: those who signed them at the bottom. Harvard provided a

203
00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:21,520
Speaker 2: fourteen page memity from Max Bosserman, who's also a professor

204
00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:23,800
Speaker 2: at Harvard Business School, that laid out evidence of fraudulent

205
00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:27,680
Speaker 2: data in the studies database. Mister Basaman design denied involvement

206
00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:31,559
Speaker 2: in any academic frauder database, taking three professors at other

207
00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:35,640
Speaker 2: university's accused mus Genos of history of fibbing about her

208
00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:36,720
Speaker 2: research on their.

209
00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:38,760
Speaker 3: Own blog unbelievable.

210
00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:43,680
Speaker 2: Urie Simonson from the university Ramon Lull and Barcelona Leaf

211
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:45,000
Speaker 2: d that just.

212
00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:46,959
Speaker 3: Blah blah blah blah blah Leaf.

213
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:52,000
Speaker 2: Yeah. In In the fall of twenty twenty one, we

214
00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:54,400
Speaker 2: shared our concerns with Harvard Business School. The academics wrote

215
00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:58,160
Speaker 2: on their blog data Colada is that supposed to be

216
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:00,720
Speaker 2: a Penia Klada reference data a colada.

217
00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:04,839
Speaker 4: If you like that a class you like.

218
00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:10,760
Speaker 1: Lying in research term papers, it's good.

219
00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:14,959
Speaker 2: Specifically, we wrote a report about four studies for which

220
00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:17,319
Speaker 2: we had accumulated the strongest evidence of fraud. We believe

221
00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:22,920
Speaker 2: that many more Geno authored papers contain fake data.

222
00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:24,679
Speaker 3: But why like that's okay?

223
00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:27,280
Speaker 5: So you can become a lesson, Like you can become

224
00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:31,000
Speaker 5: part of the lesson. You know, yes, they'll learn about

225
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:32,920
Speaker 5: you in in class.

226
00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:34,280
Speaker 3: M M.

227
00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:38,199
Speaker 1: Maybe you made the textbooks. Instead of holding up the textbook,

228
00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:39,320
Speaker 1: you become part.

229
00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:39,920
Speaker 3: Of the textbook.

230
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:40,520
Speaker 4: Exactly.

231
00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:43,880
Speaker 2: Here's the thing, Like you do it once, right, Like

232
00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:46,679
Speaker 2: I almost I can I almost can understand once because

233
00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:50,320
Speaker 2: you get a job at Harvard. There's pressure, there's pressure

234
00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:53,040
Speaker 2: to publish. You're nervous, You're like, I'm gonna lose my

235
00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:57,840
Speaker 2: prestigious job you have you have imposter syndrome, and you're like,

236
00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:00,000
Speaker 2: if I just fudge this a little bit, this seems int.

237
00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:00,960
Speaker 1: Then I can go.

238
00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:04,640
Speaker 2: But then to continually do it, like to never actually

239
00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:10,360
Speaker 2: have a good enough idea or hypothesis or paper. I mean,

240
00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:11,960
Speaker 2: I don't know what Harvard Business School does.

241
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:18,640
Speaker 1: I have known either, But isn't this just like the

242
00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:22,880
Speaker 1: people that are like no gay marriage and then always

243
00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:25,600
Speaker 1: one hundred percent of the time get caught having a

244
00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:30,600
Speaker 1: gay relationship right after she knew deep down she was

245
00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:33,720
Speaker 1: a liar and hated that she had lied her way

246
00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:34,920
Speaker 1: into all these things.

247
00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:37,839
Speaker 3: So she just kept doing it and exposed.

248
00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:40,800
Speaker 1: Herself and at some point there's a come up, and

249
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:43,040
Speaker 1: she got come up and starn come up.

250
00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:46,560
Speaker 5: Ah, yeah, because that is a liar.

251
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:49,160
Speaker 4: But also like doesn't everybody lie.

252
00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:52,000
Speaker 2: It's like a little bit of course all the time.

253
00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:55,040
Speaker 5: I'm sure she talks about fake it till you make it.

254
00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:57,480
Speaker 5: You know, maybe that's sort of what she was doing

255
00:12:57,720 --> 00:12:58,319
Speaker 5: a little bit.

256
00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:00,000
Speaker 2: She was continually fake.

257
00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:03,680
Speaker 1: She would tell us cap faking, she faked until she

258
00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:06,040
Speaker 1: faking it made it.

259
00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:11,000
Speaker 2: I just recently had to with uh, my daughter is

260
00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:15,200
Speaker 2: six and my son is three, but he's close to four.

261
00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:18,760
Speaker 2: And we went to Mexico last week and we were

262
00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:21,160
Speaker 2: staying at a hotel that had what's called a kid's club,

263
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:23,280
Speaker 2: where like the kids can go and like hang out

264
00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:27,439
Speaker 2: for like an hour and you can go. They loved it,

265
00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:29,920
Speaker 2: but it was the kid's club was only for four

266
00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:33,679
Speaker 2: years old and up. So we told Gus, like, when

267
00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:36,400
Speaker 2: you're in Mexico, you're gonna be four. And Olive was like,

268
00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:40,560
Speaker 2: so we're gonna lie. And we're like, well, you know,

269
00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:43,400
Speaker 2: if he's not four, he can't really go to kids club.

270
00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:45,240
Speaker 2: She's like, so we're lying. So then she went to

271
00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:47,240
Speaker 2: school the next day and was like, we're going to

272
00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:52,400
Speaker 2: Mexico and we're lying. We're lying to everybody, and I

273
00:13:52,520 --> 00:13:56,040
Speaker 2: was like, okay, okay, we got to stop this. So

274
00:13:56,160 --> 00:14:00,119
Speaker 2: then we lied to her and we told her.

275
00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:02,720
Speaker 3: Who cares good?

276
00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:06,240
Speaker 2: We told her no, there's a time difference in Mexico

277
00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:08,800
Speaker 2: and it's just four months ahead there.

278
00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:14,800
Speaker 1: And so he, oh, Kurt, you do I have a

00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:33,880
Speaker 1: All South Koreans have become a year or two younger.

285
00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:37,040
Speaker 1: What thanks to a new law that aligns the nation's

286
00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:40,760
Speaker 1: two traditional age counting methods with international standards.

287
00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:43,560
Speaker 4: WHOA, this is great.

288
00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:46,800

Speaker 1: Nakou, she or he or they are really good at this.

295
00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:10,360
Speaker 1: The law scraps one traditional system that was deemed South

00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:14,440
Speaker 1: Koreans are one year old at birth because they count

297
00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:19,240
Speaker 1: the time in the womb. Another system they use counted

Speaker 1: The traditional age counting method created quote unnecessary social and

320
00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:29,479
Speaker 1: economic costs.

321
00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:33,480
Speaker 3: Wow, kind of makes sense. Yeah, are you fourteen? Are

322
00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:34,120
Speaker 3: you sixteen?

323
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:38,480
Speaker 1: Or are you fifteen and in Olive's case, twenty four

324
00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:42,320
Speaker 1: years old. I'm glad going back to that story, I

325
00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:44,920
Speaker 1: am glad that they loved the kids club or whatever

326
00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:47,640
Speaker 1: so that you two got some to Margarita by the

327
00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:48,240
Speaker 1: pool time.

328
00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:50,600
Speaker 2: Oh my god, it was amazing how much they loved it.

329
00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:53,320
Speaker 3: What did they do with the kids.

330
00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:56,520
Speaker 2: That every hour was like a different thing. So it'd

331
00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:59,640
Speaker 2: be like ten am, make a turtle and they would

332
00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:02,160
Speaker 2: make it a lot of like an old plastic bottle, and

333
00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:07,920
Speaker 2: then like eleven am, it's the floor is lava, and

334
00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:10,119
Speaker 2: then they would play the floor is lava at eleven am,

335
00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:11,800
Speaker 2: you know, like that sort of thing.

336
00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:14,880
Speaker 5: I was thinking. I remember I stayed at a resort

337
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:20,080
Speaker 5: one time. I had a friend that his parents had

338
00:17:20,080 --> 00:17:22,439
Speaker 5: a lot of money, and he invited me to go

339
00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:25,000
Speaker 5: with him growing up to some resort.

340
00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:26,160
Speaker 4: It was great, and.

341
00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:30,040
Speaker 5: They had this resort had like a kid's club, but

342
00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:33,560
Speaker 5: it was like a club. It was like four kids

343
00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:36,640
Speaker 5: and there was like a DJ and stuff. I mean,

344
00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:39,080
Speaker 5: maybe not children children, I mean we were probably like.

345
00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:41,640
Speaker 3: Three teens, still young.

346
00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:44,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, So I was thinking maybe that was what they

347
00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:46,880
Speaker 5: were doing, like for toddlers or for you know, four

348
00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:50,600
Speaker 5: year olds. A club with little bottle service, but it's

349
00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:52,160
Speaker 5: milk or somethra bottles.

350
00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:55,200
Speaker 2: I remember in Bayhead, New Jersey, there was a place

351
00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:59,040
Speaker 2: called the Surf Club, and the Surf Club on Wednesdays

352
00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:02,760
Speaker 2: in the summer would have have a in all ages,

353
00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:04,240
Speaker 2: like I think it was teen. It was like a

354
00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:08,639
Speaker 2: teen dance night, fourteen to eighteen, and it was you

355
00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:11,680
Speaker 2: felt like everybody would get in there and drink some

356
00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:17,320
Speaker 2: Jolt cola and fucking just dance to mighty muddy bosstones

357
00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:22,479
Speaker 2: and smoked cigarettes outside on the beach. It was like

358
00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:26,080
Speaker 2: it was like fifteen year old of heaven. It was amazing.

359
00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:29,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, ours were always in church basements, which makes it

360
00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:34,359
Speaker 1: that much weirder, and you're just your young, pre pubescent

361
00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:37,879
Speaker 1: horniness just right underneath, where two days later you're like,

362
00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:42,040
Speaker 1: I'm so sorry for freaking everybody that was there. Very

363
00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:46,439
Speaker 1: fun though also very fun. So here's how some of

364
00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:51,960
Speaker 1: those age counting methods created unnecessary costs. For instance, disputes

365
00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:56,040
Speaker 1: have arisen over insurance payouts and determining eligibility for government

366
00:18:56,080 --> 00:19:01,160
Speaker 1: assistance programs. Wow, which makes sense. Previously, the most widely

367
00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:05,200
Speaker 1: used calculation method in Korea was the centuries old Korean

368
00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:09,240
Speaker 1: age system in which a person turns one at birth

369
00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:11,880
Speaker 1: and gains one year on January first. So if you're

370
00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:17,760
Speaker 1: born December thirty first, you're two the next day. WHOA, Okay,

371
00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:22,199
Speaker 1: that doesn't feel fair. It's like, yeah, you're five and

372
00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:26,560
Speaker 1: you're not reading. You're like, I'm three. It's hard for me.

373
00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:32,840
Speaker 1: A separate counting age system that was also traditionally used

374
00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:35,800
Speaker 1: in the country considers a person zero at birth but

375
00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:38,240
Speaker 1: adds a year on January timeout timeout.

376
00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:41,960
Speaker 2: South Korea is not that big. How are they have

377
00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:46,239
Speaker 2: multiple ways of counting people's area. It's like it's like

378
00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:48,520
Speaker 2: the size of New Jersey or something. Right, So it's

379
00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:51,359
Speaker 2: like it's like if North Jersey was like everybody's zero,

380
00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:54,679
Speaker 2: and then Central Jersey's like everybody's one, and like, what

381
00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:57,720
Speaker 2: is happening? That's crazy that it was so varied.

382
00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:02,720
Speaker 1: I agree, and also you yes, you just feel like,

383
00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:05,560
Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe it's an old traditional thing versus

384
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:08,040
Speaker 1: South Grade. To me, I've never been. But when I

385
00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:10,320
Speaker 1: do think of them, I think of them as very innovative.

386
00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:13,000
Speaker 1: I think of like lots of new tech, and I'm like,

387
00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:16,000
Speaker 1: this is a future leaning country and city, and yet

388
00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:18,160
Speaker 1: I have no idea. That's just my impression of them.

389
00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:21,800
Speaker 1: And apparently up until about last Wednesday they were weird

390
00:20:21,800 --> 00:20:23,119
Speaker 1: about age.

391
00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:24,639
Speaker 3: So what that for?

392
00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:27,359
Speaker 1: The last one means, which is counting age system is

393
00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:32,440
Speaker 1: for example, as of June twenty eighth, twenty twenty three,

394
00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:38,720
Speaker 1: so really tomorrow, a person born on June twenty ninth,

395
00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:43,080
Speaker 1: two thousand and three. Okay, so somebody we're in two

396
00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:47,160
Speaker 1: thousand and three is nineteen under the international system, twenty

397
00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:49,680
Speaker 1: under the counting age system, and twenty one under the

398
00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:50,639
Speaker 1: Korean age system.

399
00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:55,359
Speaker 3: Wowk pretty interesting. But also to yeah, you could be

400
00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:56,639
Speaker 3: whatever age you want.

401
00:20:56,760 --> 00:20:58,520
Speaker 1: I mean in LA this would crush by the way

402
00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:00,720
Speaker 1: at people that are but animals list in LA are like,

403
00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:03,440
Speaker 1: let's do it because I could be thirty eight again

404
00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:04,080
Speaker 1: in a heartbeat.

405
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:08,680
Speaker 4: But what happens when you go to America? How old

406
00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:09,000
Speaker 4: are you?

407
00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:14,480
Speaker 1: Well, now it'll be on birthdate starting. So they're using

408
00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:18,399
Speaker 1: the international system now. Three and four South Koreans were

409
00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:22,440
Speaker 1: in favor of this standardization, according to a poll by

410
00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:23,680
Speaker 1: hand Cook Research.

411
00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:24,600
Speaker 3: God they're good.

412
00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:26,200
Speaker 4: Oh, hand Cook's the best.

413
00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:30,360
Speaker 1: Oh I don't need a meal without consulting with them first.

414
00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:35,960
Speaker 1: There's a subconscious layer of agism in people's behavior. This

415
00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:39,360
Speaker 1: is evident even though a complex language system based on age.

416
00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:42,520
Speaker 1: I hope the abolition of Korean age system and the

417
00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:46,280
Speaker 1: adaptation of the International standard gets rid of old relics

418
00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:46,840
Speaker 1: of the past.

419
00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:50,919
Speaker 3: Now that sounds kind of fucked up. Actually yeah, but

420
00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:54,479
Speaker 3: Japan also had something similar and they dropped it and

421
00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:58,200
Speaker 3: adopted the International standard in nineteen fifty, while North Korea

422
00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:02,840
Speaker 3: actually dropped it in the nineteen eighties. What so, that's it?

423
00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:06,119
Speaker 1: So yeah, now South Korea, it's the year you're born,

424
00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:08,719
Speaker 1: you're zero years old, and then your birthday is on

425
00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:11,760
Speaker 1: that birthday, not January first, So great job, South Korea.

426
00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:12,680
Speaker 3: Welcome to the team.

427
00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:14,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, welcome, Welcome to time.

428
00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:17,199
Speaker 3: Glad to Welcome to time.

429
00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:22,560
Speaker 2: Maybe that's the title welcome to time.

430
00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:26,120
Speaker 1: Sure, I love that though, but also that's it must

431
00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:28,680
Speaker 1: have been so confusing. And then the photo on BBC

432
00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:31,199
Speaker 1: was a woman holding like a whiteboard that said she

433
00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:34,400
Speaker 1: was thirty three but now she's thirty one.

434
00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:36,760
Speaker 3: Okay, good, So Roz.

435
00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:38,840
Speaker 2: Are you a big Are you a big birthday person?

436
00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:39,600
Speaker 2: Or no?

437
00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:40,119
Speaker 4: Not at all?

438
00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:46,520
Speaker 5: Astrology neither, I don't I just like I don't know.

439
00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:50,560
Speaker 5: Birthdays aren't that important? To me, which I forget that

440
00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:54,520
Speaker 5: they are for other people. So sometimes I'm I have

441
00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:56,720
Speaker 5: this mindset like it doesn't matter for me, so it

442
00:22:56,720 --> 00:22:57,520
Speaker 5: doesn't matter for them.

443
00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:00,400
Speaker 4: But some adults I know.

444
00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:04,840
Speaker 5: Seemed to really think their birthday is a big fucking deal.

445
00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:09,320
Speaker 5: And I can't tell you how many times I've not

446
00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:12,080
Speaker 5: gone to a birthday party and heard about it, like

447
00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:16,240
Speaker 5: you missed my big day. I was turning twenty six.

448
00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:19,480
Speaker 4: Like what is that stage?

449
00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:20,600
Speaker 2: Yeah? Like what?

450
00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:24,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, so I'm not really that into it, and then

451
00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:27,520
Speaker 5: like astrology, like I don't, I don't know. I think

452
00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:29,879
Speaker 5: it's fun to hear about, but I don't h I

453
00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:31,159
Speaker 5: don't really know much about it.

454
00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:34,440
Speaker 2: I liked it you chose twenty six too, because twenty six,

455
00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:37,920
Speaker 2: I do. I remember twenty six being the first birthday

456
00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:41,840
Speaker 2: that no thing, There was no thing to look forward

457
00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:44,560
Speaker 2: to anymore. Like at twenty five you could rent a

458
00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:48,679
Speaker 2: car without like a like someone who like a cheaper car,

459
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:51,320
Speaker 2: and that was the last thing, and then twenty six

460
00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:55,440
Speaker 2: was just like, well, now you're just getting older, so yeah,

461
00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:57,720
Speaker 2: there is no thing you bestowed upon you as a

462
00:23:57,720 --> 00:23:59,040
Speaker 2: twenty six year old.

463
00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:01,800
Speaker 1: I used to be very against birthdays for adults I

464
00:24:01,840 --> 00:24:03,360
Speaker 1: just thought it was lame and there was like look

465
00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:05,520
Speaker 1: at me behavior. But then the world is so shitty

466
00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:08,040
Speaker 1: that now, if somebody really wants to celebrate their birthday,

467
00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:08,880
Speaker 1: I will very.

468
00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:10,440
Speaker 3: Much get into their birthday.

469
00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:13,720
Speaker 1: But I don't like when people are like, it's my

470
00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:16,480
Speaker 1: birthday week, and if you tell me it's your birthday month,

471
00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:18,480
Speaker 1: I'm deleting you from my phone.

472
00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:22,240
Speaker 3: Oh my life, yes, a month as an adult.

473
00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:25,639
Speaker 5: Come, I know, and you know, I used to like

474
00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:30,640
Speaker 5: host really touristy drag shows and I've worked in LA

475
00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:34,560
Speaker 5: and a lot of touristy kind of places where it's

476
00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:38,800
Speaker 5: like it's but it's her birthday today, and it's like, bitch,

477
00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:43,679
Speaker 5: is everyone's birthday here? Like every day is everyone's birthday?

478
00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:46,560
Speaker 5: And I think that kind of ruined it for me.

479
00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:50,119
Speaker 5: It kind of took away the excitement to me.

480
00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:54,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, the comedy club version of that is bachelorette parties

481

Speaker 3: New addition, they're gonna be a little hotter Roz. Have

536
00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:16,920
Speaker 3: you seen ghosts?

537
00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:20,760
Speaker 4: Ah? Yes, I mean cool. Here's the deal.

538
00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:23,680
Speaker 5: I'm pretty skeptical of all of this stuff, so even

539
00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:28,560
Speaker 5: my own experiences, I'm kind of like, are you just crazy?

540
00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:32,840
Speaker 5: So yeah, I think I've seen I think.

541
00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:37,320
Speaker 4: I've seen ghosts. But yeah, I'm real. I'm real into it.

542
00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:41,160
Speaker 5: I'm really into talking about it, and I'm certainly interested

543
00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:43,120
Speaker 5: in hearing everybody else's stories.

544
00:28:43,920 --> 00:28:45,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's interesting.

545
00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:48,600
Speaker 1: It's like an interesting thing where there they sometimes people

546
00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:51,080
Speaker 1: try to discredit it by saying, hey, in houses where

547
00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:55,040
Speaker 1: people report paranormal activity, they've later gone in and proven

548
00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:57,840
Speaker 1: that the carbon monoxide levels were high, and like, maybe

549
00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:01,240
Speaker 1: these raparations. But then I have people in my life,

550
00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:05,200
Speaker 1: including some good friends of Kurt and Mind, who are like, yeah,

551
00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:08,120
Speaker 1: I saw one and they say it so matter of factly,

552
00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:11,440
Speaker 1: and they were skeptical and they're like, I did see one,

553
00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:14,280
Speaker 1: and then you just have to believe them because if

554
00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:16,640
Speaker 1: you don't, then you don't trust your friend. And these

555
00:29:16,680 --> 00:29:19,240
Speaker 1: are people that we love and trust.

556
00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:25,080
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, I think. I think sometimes when you I mean,

557
00:29:25,080 --> 00:29:26,840
Speaker 5: it's sort of like any of this stuff, like you

558
00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:29,360
Speaker 5: consider the source or whatever. And sometimes when you hear

559
00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:32,520
Speaker 5: right coming from people that you trust and you know

560
00:29:32,600 --> 00:29:35,520
Speaker 5: they're not lying, that's that's like the most convincing stuff.

561
00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:38,360
Speaker 5: And the best is when somebody else is there experiencing

562
00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:42,080
Speaker 5: it with you. And I've had a couple of experiences

563
00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:46,440
Speaker 5: where I'm like, I don't have any explanation for what

564
00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:48,920
Speaker 5: that was. I kind of feel like I have to

565
00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:50,480
Speaker 5: call it that was a ghost.

566
00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:53,520
Speaker 4: But yeah, I don't know.

567
00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:56,800
Speaker 5: I love just even just talking about it, and to me,

568
00:29:56,920 --> 00:29:59,600
Speaker 5: like if things, if you do find out that there's

569
00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:03,200
Speaker 5: some kind kind of logical explanation, sure, I don't know

570
00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:06,320
Speaker 5: why you both couldn't be true. I even entertained like

571
00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:09,160
Speaker 5: if somebody's on mushrooms and they think they see something like,

572
00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:12,600
Speaker 5: I don't see why that wouldn't also be true that

573
00:30:12,920 --> 00:30:15,480
Speaker 5: the veil is more thin to the other side when

574
00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:18,640
Speaker 5: you put your walls down. You know, I don't know

575
00:30:18,760 --> 00:30:21,640
Speaker 5: why not or people have sleep paralysis. I'm like, yeah,

576
00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:24,120
Speaker 5: it could be a scientific thing, but it could also

577
00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:27,360
Speaker 5: be when the demons come in to say hello, I

578
00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:31,360
Speaker 5: don't know, and that could be your future husband, that demon.

579
00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:33,080
Speaker 5: So don't be too scared.

580
00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:37,120
Speaker 1: You could divorce you in two to three years when

581
00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:39,520
Speaker 1: he really gets to know you as a real person.

582
00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:42,320
Speaker 1: I was Kurt and I went to our friend Christen's

583
00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:45,440
Speaker 1: wedding at the Stanley Hotel at East's Park, a very

584
00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:49,240
Speaker 1: haunt iconic where Stephen King and his wife Tabitha stayed,

585
00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:51,440
Speaker 1: and he got so freaked out because they were closing

586
00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:54,720
Speaker 1: up for the winter that he wrote The Shining Later

587
00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:57,640
Speaker 1: about that hotel. And you know, the whole time we're there,

588
00:30:57,760 --> 00:30:59,960
Speaker 1: we're just goofing off, Like Kurt and I were having fun,

589
00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:02,000
Speaker 1: and all our friends from New York and la are there.

590
00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:02,920
Speaker 3: It's a great time.

591
00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:07,840
Speaker 1: But I was staying next to the famous room and

592
00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:10,040
Speaker 1: then we ended up moving to another wing. But there

593
00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:13,600
Speaker 1: are ghost tours happening in the lobby every couple hours

594
00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:17,760
Speaker 1: the entire time you're there, and I didn't see anything,

595
00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:18,520
Speaker 1: and I met Kurt.

596
00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:20,000
Speaker 3: Did I talk about this on the pod before? I

597
00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:20,600
Speaker 3: can't remember.

598
00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:22,840
Speaker 5: It's only something I want you to talk about on

599
00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:24,440
Speaker 5: my pod.

600
00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:29,320
Speaker 1: We save it to hear the rest of the tea

601
00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:34,080
Speaker 1: and then I looked down covered in blood. For the

602
00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:36,400
Speaker 1: rest of the story, we're going to have to listen

603
00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:39,040
Speaker 1: to us on Ghosted. The blood part may or may

604
00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:40,880
Speaker 1: not be true. We'll have to find out.

605
00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:43,360
Speaker 5: Way did you ride a little tricycle through the hallway?

606
00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:44,640
Speaker 5: Is that how you got to your room?

607
00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:46,080
Speaker 3: No?

608
00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:49,520
Speaker 1: But so I grew up in Maryland, in Baldimore County, Maryland,

609
00:31:49,560 --> 00:31:52,680
Speaker 1: and their Black Aggie, which is like a very famous

610
00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:56,240
Speaker 1: sort of ghost gravestone thing. There was always a part

611
00:31:56,240 --> 00:31:58,280
Speaker 1: of my life growing up. But where I grew up

612
00:31:58,320 --> 00:32:02,160
Speaker 1: there was this story about for Melinda, which I'm actually

613
00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:05,240
Speaker 1: turning into something now, like a TV thing now, And

614
00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:07,520
Speaker 1: that was so like growing up. There were two major

615
00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:10,560
Speaker 1: ghost stories in my hometown. And then when the Blair

616
00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:14,520
Speaker 1: Witch Project came out, it showed in the Charles Theater first,

617
00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:17,040
Speaker 1: like it showed in Baltimore before anywhere else in the country,

618
00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:20,479
Speaker 1: and so we all thought that that was real. Like

619
00:32:20,680 --> 00:32:24,800
Speaker 1: I was sixteen and my friend Jen ran out of

620
00:32:24,840 --> 00:32:26,800
Speaker 1: the theater and called her dad, who was a lawyer,

621
00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:29,200
Speaker 1: and it's like, kids are missing in Burkettsville. We have

622
00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:31,719
Speaker 1: to like alert your powerful friends.

623
00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:32,920
Speaker 2: Woh my god.

624
00:32:32,960 --> 00:32:35,959
Speaker 5: I remember when that came out. I had like a

625
00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:40,320
Speaker 5: babysitter who was a teenager and she was like, I

626
00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:43,400
Speaker 5: saw it and it was real and I couldn't sleep.

627
00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:45,880
Speaker 5: And my you know, my male friends, they were all

628
00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:49,200
Speaker 5: hugging each other at night time. They couldn't sleep alone.

629
00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:53,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, And I'm like, I remember, most we know where

630
00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:54,200
Speaker 3: that house is.

631
00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:56,520
Speaker 1: It was out in My friend lived off of this

632
00:32:56,600 --> 00:32:58,640
Speaker 1: row called Liberty Road, and he's like, no, that house

633
00:32:58,680 --> 00:32:59,240
Speaker 1: is near here.

634
00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:01,240
Speaker 3: And then a bunch of.

635
00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:03,880
Speaker 1: Dudes when we were all seniors, we walked out in

636
00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:08,080
Speaker 1: the woods with probably one flashlight and we found the house,

637
00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:10,520
Speaker 1: the real house, and there were still handprints on the

638
00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:14,040
Speaker 1: walls from the art department, making it scary. Of all

639
00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:16,280
Speaker 1: the kids that were trapped in the house. And all

640
00:33:16,320 --> 00:33:18,720
Speaker 1: these tough guys, all the guys in my high school

641
00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:21,680
Speaker 1: that just loved getting in fist fights, all the guys

642
00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:24,240
Speaker 1: that just couldn't wait to beat up the rival schools,

643
00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:27,640
Speaker 1: wouldn't even step foot on the porch. So I was like,

644
00:33:27,880 --> 00:33:30,520
Speaker 1: you know, young and arrogant and trying to make a

645
00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:32,880
Speaker 1: name for myself as a sixteen year old or whatever.

646
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:34,480
Speaker 1: So I go up on the porch and I go

647
00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:37,640
Speaker 1: up to the door, and I was so terrified, Like

648
00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:40,240
Speaker 1: I could feel the hair standing up on my neck,

649
00:33:40,360 --> 00:33:43,360
Speaker 1: my arms. I was like fucking scared. And they were like,

650
00:33:43,520 --> 00:33:46,760
Speaker 1: go in, Scottie, And my first thought was I'm gonna

651
00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:50,000
Speaker 1: walk in and there's gonna be like a redneck family

652
00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:52,160
Speaker 1: in here that grabs me and beats me up and

653
00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:54,280
Speaker 1: kills me. And like I went up to the door

654
00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:56,560
Speaker 1: and I was the only one that would even go

655
00:33:56,680 --> 00:33:59,440
Speaker 1: up there because we all really were like this is

656
00:33:59,480 --> 00:33:59,920
Speaker 1: the place.

657
00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:03,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, that's a horror movies. It's just like

658
00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:06,480
Speaker 5: with Luigi Board. It's like people people see these things

659
00:34:06,520 --> 00:34:09,080
Speaker 5: in horror movies and they think that they really have

660
00:34:09,239 --> 00:34:12,200
Speaker 5: that power, and I don't know, some people theorize that

661
00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:15,480
Speaker 5: that it can actually give the power just thinking that.

662
00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:16,759
Speaker 4: I don't know, I don't know.

663
00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:19,480
Speaker 1: I'm excited to be on Ghosted, right, It's gonna be

664
00:34:19,520 --> 00:34:20,520
Speaker 1: really pumped on this.

665
00:34:20,719 --> 00:34:21,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, I can't wait.

666
00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:24,400
Speaker 5: Ever since the movie Mod came out, I mean I

667
00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:29,960
Speaker 5: can't even buy booze for you know, teenagers, because.

668
00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:31,839
Speaker 4: Kids see the movie and they think that I kill them.

669
00:34:33,680 --> 00:34:36,560
Speaker 3: I am so appreciative that you like that movie.

670
00:34:36,640 --> 00:34:38,839
Speaker 1: It means the world to me because I that one

671
00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:41,200
Speaker 1: just sticks around and I get sent the memes all

672
00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:45,840
Speaker 1: the time, and I'm like, I love that Sue Anne sticks.

673
00:34:46,440 --> 00:34:49,360
Speaker 2: I remember trying to get people to buy a case

674
00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:51,680
Speaker 2: of beer for me in high school and no one

675
00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:52,480
Speaker 2: would do it.

676
00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:56,839
Speaker 5: I just imagine doing that as an adult, like because yeah,

677
00:34:56,840 --> 00:35:00,279
Speaker 5: when I was younger, like people, I cannot imagine being

678
00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:00,800
Speaker 5: an adult.

679
00:35:00,840 --> 00:35:01,040
Speaker 3: Now.

680
00:35:02,200 --> 00:35:06,080
Speaker 5: Never stay away from me, anybody young.

681
00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:08,480
Speaker 3: I'm just scared of teenagers, to be honest.

682
00:35:08,239 --> 00:35:12,440
Speaker 5: No, I'm I'm terrified of teenagers. That's absolutely true.

683
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:18,000
Speaker 3: World you see five teenagers walking down the street, you

684
00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:18,960
Speaker 3: cross the street.

685
00:35:19,320 --> 00:35:21,600
Speaker 5: I used to live right next to John Marshall High

686
00:35:21,719 --> 00:35:25,640
Speaker 5: and in Los Peelis and I would always like hear

687
00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:27,719
Speaker 5: the kids like on their skateboards or whatever, and like

688
00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:32,000
Speaker 5: if I would go out there sometimes like uh, you know,

689
00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:33,480
Speaker 5: because I used to be a drag queen and I

690
00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:36,359
Speaker 5: would like be in drag like going to work, and

691
00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:38,640
Speaker 5: I would see the kids and like sometimes they'd be

692
00:35:38,680 --> 00:35:41,680
Speaker 5: like is that your girlfriend Tommy or whatever, and I'd

693
00:35:41,719 --> 00:35:42,080
Speaker 5: be like.

694
00:35:41,960 --> 00:35:42,959
Speaker 2: Oh, you guys are mean.

695
00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:52,120
Speaker 5: They're absolutely hard, and they're all so much smarter now

696
00:35:52,239 --> 00:35:55,759
Speaker 5: than us, like just period as adults, Like they all

697
00:35:56,080 --> 00:35:58,600
Speaker 5: know so much more, they have so much more exposure,

698
00:35:58,680 --> 00:36:01,799
Speaker 5: there's so much more world worldly and yeah, they care

699
00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:04,759
Speaker 5: about things that none of us cared about, like they're

700
00:36:04,800 --> 00:36:05,680
Speaker 5: actually amazing.

701
00:36:06,160 --> 00:36:06,680
Speaker 3: Oh.

702
00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:10,799
Speaker 2: I would always terrify me, especially in New York City

703
00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:13,560
Speaker 2: on the subway, when a gaggle of teenagers would get

704
00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:16,120
Speaker 2: on the subway, to just be like everybody, heads down,

705
00:36:16,520 --> 00:36:20,200
Speaker 2: heads down, don't make eye contact. They're wild. They're wild.

706
00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:24,160
Speaker 1: Nice kids eat little cheese. It's just eating little bags

707
00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:26,840
Speaker 1: of cheese. It's all the time. Black jackets, tight jeans.

708
00:36:26,920 --> 00:36:28,640
Speaker 3: It was a great look. It was a better time.

709
00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:34,960
Speaker 2: Speaking of subway, here's a segue, right, New records set

710
00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:38,440
Speaker 2: for fastest trip through entirety of the New York City subway.

711
00:36:39,680 --> 00:36:42,120
Speaker 2: This was sending. I'm so sorry that I've forgotten who

712
00:36:42,160 --> 00:36:44,879
Speaker 2: sent this in. I've had it in my tabs for

713
00:36:44,920 --> 00:36:49,040
Speaker 2: so long, been meaning to do this one, so I apologize,

714
00:36:49,160 --> 00:36:52,799
Speaker 2: but it has erased your name, Gothamist. If this wasn't Gothamist.

715
00:36:53,239 --> 00:36:55,520
Speaker 2: This is written by a lot of people calling the

716
00:36:55,640 --> 00:37:00,319
Speaker 2: b TV the stephen Nesson. Thank you Steven. This is

717
00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:02,920
Speaker 2: from May eighteenth, twenty twenty three. New York City Subway

718
00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:08,000
Speaker 2: has four hundred seventy two stations laid hours across six

719
00:37:08,080 --> 00:37:10,800
Speaker 2: hundred and sixty five miles of track.

720
00:37:10,960 --> 00:37:11,640
Speaker 3: Wow. Wow.

721
00:37:12,040 --> 00:37:15,320
Speaker 2: For decades, transit enthusiasts have jockey to set the record

722
00:37:15,360 --> 00:37:17,680
Speaker 2: for the fastest time to travel through the whole system.

723
00:37:18,239 --> 00:37:21,560
Speaker 2: Last month, Kate Jones, and New Yorker now living in Switzerland,

724
00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:25,239
Speaker 2: set a new standard. She completed the hour in What's

725
00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:26,600
Speaker 2: Everybody's guess?

726
00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:29,920
Speaker 3: She wrote, to every single stop, all four hundred and

727
00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:30,800
Speaker 3: seventy two.

728
00:37:31,239 --> 00:37:33,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, over six hundred and sixty five miles.

729
00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:41,160
Speaker 3: Oh, exactly, man, that must take a whole a day.

730
00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:42,439
Speaker 3: It must take a whole day.

731
00:37:42,920 --> 00:37:46,359
Speaker 4: I'm gonna say two days.

732
00:37:47,040 --> 00:37:49,520
Speaker 3: Okay, y'all say thirty hours.

733
00:37:50,320 --> 00:37:54,640
Speaker 2: Twenty two hours, fourteen minutes and ten seconds. Her time

734
00:37:54,719 --> 00:37:56,920
Speaker 2: was certified last week by Guinness World Records. I have

735
00:37:56,960 --> 00:38:00,560
Speaker 2: no idea how I wanted a problem to that would

736
00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:02,920
Speaker 2: be interesting for my brain, but also like something that

737
00:38:02,960 --> 00:38:05,719
Speaker 2: would get me physically moving. Jones forty three set over

738
00:38:05,760 --> 00:38:08,319
Speaker 2: the phone. She said she spent months figuring out how

739
00:38:08,360 --> 00:38:11,120
Speaker 2: to hit every station with the fewest repetitions and with

740
00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:15,560
Speaker 2: the fastest transfers, all while trying to avoid delays. Her

741
00:38:15,640 --> 00:38:19,120
Speaker 2: time was slightly longer than that of the previous record holder,

742
00:38:19,239 --> 00:38:21,880
Speaker 2: math threw On, who in twenty sixteen completed the so

743
00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:24,520
Speaker 2: called subway challenge in twenty one hours, twenty eight minutes

744
00:38:24,520 --> 00:38:27,560
Speaker 2: and fourteen seconds. But that was before the MTA opened

745
00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:32,680
Speaker 2: three new Second Avenue subway stations on the Upper east Side. Okay, Jones'

746
00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:35,480
Speaker 2: record setting run wasn't her first attempt. She tried the

747
00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:38,520
Speaker 2: challenge in twenty fourteen and again a year later, but

748
00:38:38,640 --> 00:38:41,840
Speaker 2: after breaking her ankle while rock climbing last August, Jones

749
00:38:41,840 --> 00:38:44,200
Speaker 2: said she wanted to give it another go. As April

750
00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:47,719
Speaker 2: drew near. Jones still had two rods, two plates, and

751
00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:50,560
Speaker 2: ten screws in her ankle, but said the race was

752
00:38:50,600 --> 00:38:54,120
Speaker 2: her motivation to run again. Quote, I had lost the

753
00:38:54,200 --> 00:38:57,520
Speaker 2: instinct to run. You know the way stoplight changes and

754
00:38:57,560 --> 00:38:59,239
Speaker 2: you want to run across an intersection?

755
00:38:59,640 --> 00:39:03,160
Speaker 1: Yep, what I know that. I'm thinking about it all

756
00:39:03,200 --> 00:39:07,120
Speaker 1: the time. Wait, wait, what dangerous?

757
00:39:07,360 --> 00:39:10,799
Speaker 2: Don't you know how when a stoplight changes you want

758
00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:12,960
Speaker 2: to sprint across.

759
00:39:12,520 --> 00:39:14,520
Speaker 4: The sad oh like when it turns green.

760
00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:17,880
Speaker 2: That's I have no idea. I do not share this

761
00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:18,960
Speaker 2: feeling that she has.

762
00:39:19,280 --> 00:39:21,920
Speaker 5: I never especially in La you don't do that. You

763
00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:24,640
Speaker 5: have to wait a minute because people are running through

764
00:39:24,680 --> 00:39:25,440
Speaker 5: that road.

765
00:39:26,600 --> 00:39:29,239
Speaker 2: She said. When there's a train on the platform, the

766
00:39:29,280 --> 00:39:31,200
Speaker 2: doors are closing, you have to run down the stairs

767
00:39:31,200 --> 00:39:32,000
Speaker 2: and dive onto that.

768
00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:33,240
Speaker 3: Yes, that is true.

769
00:39:33,640 --> 00:39:35,640
Speaker 2: Jones returned to New York last month for the challenge,

770
00:39:35,640 --> 00:39:37,640
Speaker 2: and her first two attempts didn't work out. She said

771
00:39:37,640 --> 00:39:41,080
Speaker 2: her third attempt was promising, but during her twentieth hour

772
00:39:41,280 --> 00:39:44,120
Speaker 2: she made a blunder when she accidentally got on a

773
00:39:44,160 --> 00:39:47,879
Speaker 2: train in the wrong direction. Due to late night track work,

774
00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:49,440
Speaker 2: there was no way she'd be able to make it

775
00:39:49,600 --> 00:39:51,680
Speaker 2: up out a reasonable amount of time.

776
00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:52,600
Speaker 3: She said.

777
00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:54,840
Speaker 2: She was ready to pick it pack it up after that,

778
00:39:54,960 --> 00:39:57,760
Speaker 2: but a friend encouraged to try one very last time.

779
00:39:58,200 --> 00:40:01,120
Speaker 2: She waited until the following Monday to try again. The

780
00:40:01,160 --> 00:40:04,000
Speaker 2: transfers worked out, the sprints paid off. She didn't even

781
00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:07,000
Speaker 2: use Omni, She paid with a Metro card. I nailed

782
00:40:07,040 --> 00:40:09,160
Speaker 2: every swipe, so still a New Yorker.

783
00:40:09,280 --> 00:40:09,800
Speaker 3: She said.

784
00:40:10,120 --> 00:40:13,400
Speaker 2: She set the record on April seventeenth, celebrated with dumplings

785
00:40:13,400 --> 00:40:16,360
Speaker 2: and Flushing Queens, and took a plane to Switzerland. Fourteen

786
00:40:16,400 --> 00:40:20,440
Speaker 2: hours later, Life Wow, where the ink on her records

787
00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:23,359
Speaker 2: sort of certificate had dried. A new challenger had entered

788
00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:25,880
Speaker 2: the ring. Whoa this is? I had not did not

789
00:40:25,960 --> 00:40:31,520
Speaker 2: anticipate this level of competition. Queen's resident, Daniel Wells twenty nine,

790
00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:35,239
Speaker 2: attempted to beat her time on Wednesday. Wells began his

791
00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:37,840
Speaker 2: journey at one am at the far Rockaway Mott Avenue

792
00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:41,000
Speaker 2: term on the A line, very familiar with that one,

793
00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:43,960
Speaker 2: the same place Jones began hers, and like Jones, he

794
00:40:44,120 --> 00:40:45,560
Speaker 2: planned to finish his root at the end of the

795
00:40:45,600 --> 00:40:48,440
Speaker 2: seven line and Flushing blah blah blah bla bla bla

796
00:40:48,480 --> 00:40:49,520
Speaker 2: blah blah.

797
00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:49,839
Speaker 3: Blah blah blah.

798
00:40:49,960 --> 00:40:50,920
Speaker 2: He didn't do it.

799
00:40:51,040 --> 00:40:51,680
Speaker 4: Is that a train?

800
00:40:53,719 --> 00:40:55,440
Speaker 3: Oh, he must not have done it if she's the

801
00:40:55,520 --> 00:40:56,160
Speaker 3: record holder.

802
00:40:56,280 --> 00:40:58,800
Speaker 2: Later, Wells tried to sprint from the Ozone Park Lefforts

803
00:40:58,800 --> 00:41:01,040
Speaker 2: Boulevard station to catch an A train at the Rockway

804
00:41:01,080 --> 00:41:04,640
Speaker 2: Boulevard station, located nearly a mile away, thinking he would

805
00:41:04,640 --> 00:41:06,920
Speaker 2: shave twenty minutes off his time, which I understand why

806
00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:10,360
Speaker 2: he's doing this, but the rush did end up saving

807
00:41:10,440 --> 00:41:12,560
Speaker 2: him his time and after seven hour as well as

808
00:41:12,560 --> 00:41:14,840
Speaker 2: it traveled up to the Bronx, back down to Lower Manhattan,

809
00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:17,320
Speaker 2: back to the Bronx from Midtown. By that point, he

810
00:41:17,440 --> 00:41:19,319
Speaker 2: was slumped on the floor of a four train car,

811
00:41:19,800 --> 00:41:22,200
Speaker 2: leaning against a pole while taking deep breaths and careful

812
00:41:22,239 --> 00:41:24,680
Speaker 2: SIPs from a small pole in spring bottle, which is

813
00:41:24,719 --> 00:41:27,480
Speaker 2: the only water he brought. He'd only hit about a

814
00:41:27,600 --> 00:41:29,440
Speaker 2: quarter of the subway SYSM at that point. He ended

815
00:41:29,520 --> 00:41:32,080
Speaker 2: up completing the run in twenty three hours, twenty seven

816
00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:35,040
Speaker 2: minutes and nine seconds. It's a huge loser, lagging Jones

817
00:41:35,120 --> 00:41:38,200
Speaker 2: record by more than an hour. He said, I'm not

818
00:41:38,239 --> 00:41:39,680
Speaker 2: going to try it more than once. He doesn't have

819
00:41:39,800 --> 00:41:45,320
Speaker 2: enough vacation hour saved up for multiple events. This article

820
00:41:45,400 --> 00:41:46,080
Speaker 2: just keeps going on.

821
00:41:46,320 --> 00:41:50,279
Speaker 3: But have it. Yeah, let her have it.

822
00:41:50,440 --> 00:41:52,279
Speaker 1: She worked hard to get it, and then you try

823
00:41:52,760 --> 00:41:55,640
Speaker 1: right away, like, let it soak in a little bit,

824
00:41:55,800 --> 00:41:58,000
Speaker 1: let the press cover it before you try to break

825
00:41:58,080 --> 00:41:58,600
Speaker 1: the record.

826
00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:02,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, like him. I don't know him, but I just

827
00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:05,360
Speaker 4: feel like he was like, no, I want to beat that.

828
00:42:07,120 --> 00:42:08,840
Speaker 2: You can't even have it for a moment.

829
00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:11,160
Speaker 5: Joan like it kind of feels like a villain thing

830
00:42:11,280 --> 00:42:13,560
Speaker 5: that like he like kind of messed up a little bit,

831
00:42:14,040 --> 00:42:17,839
Speaker 5: like you know, it's very that character like gets there.

832
00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:21,080
Speaker 5: I don't know if somebody throws marbles and he slips

833
00:42:21,120 --> 00:42:23,400
Speaker 5: on him when as he's running through the subway.

834
00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:26,600
Speaker 2: That was always that. There was a stop on the

835
00:42:26,719 --> 00:42:30,719
Speaker 2: A train where if you're going to rock Away where

836
00:42:30,719 --> 00:42:34,680
Speaker 2: I used to have a bungalow with some surfers, ninety

837
00:42:34,760 --> 00:42:37,520
Speaker 2: first Street, there's a stop in the middle. It's called

838
00:42:37,560 --> 00:42:40,360
Speaker 2: Broad Channel, and it's in the middle of a of

839
00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:43,680
Speaker 2: a peninsula in the middle of Jamaica Bay, and so

840
00:42:43,800 --> 00:42:47,160
Speaker 2: you're surrounded really by just nature. If you like peek

841
00:42:47,239 --> 00:42:49,360
Speaker 2: your head around either side, you're in the middle of

842
00:42:49,640 --> 00:42:52,480
Speaker 2: a giant bay and there's just like birds in it

843
00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:56,000
Speaker 2: and wildlife around you. And the train would and you

844
00:42:56,080 --> 00:42:58,520
Speaker 2: could always see the S train, the shuttle train that

845
00:42:58,560 --> 00:43:00,719
Speaker 2: you needed to take, so you would and I would

846
00:43:00,719 --> 00:43:02,799
Speaker 2: always go out late at night and then sleep there

847
00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:04,840
Speaker 2: and then wake up and surf in the morning. And

848
00:43:04,960 --> 00:43:07,200
Speaker 2: so it would always be like one in the morning

849
00:43:07,800 --> 00:43:11,000
Speaker 2: getting off there, and it would be freezing cold, and

850
00:43:11,120 --> 00:43:14,280
Speaker 2: you're just the elements. You're just so exposed. There's nowhere

851
00:43:14,320 --> 00:43:16,800
Speaker 2: to get warm, and then you would just watch that

852
00:43:17,239 --> 00:43:20,600
Speaker 2: s train just sit there for sometimes usually like twenty

853
00:43:20,760 --> 00:43:23,320
Speaker 2: five minutes before it would just turn its lights on

854
00:43:23,440 --> 00:43:25,960
Speaker 2: and slowly roll up and take you the one stop

855
00:43:26,080 --> 00:43:28,880
Speaker 2: to ninety first Street. It was it would like it

856
00:43:28,920 --> 00:43:31,359
Speaker 2: would it would hurt so much.

857
00:43:32,200 --> 00:43:35,399
Speaker 1: And I always heard that there was a subway dug

858
00:43:35,600 --> 00:43:39,560
Speaker 1: built ready to rumble between Grand Central Station and LaGuardia

859
00:43:39,680 --> 00:43:42,920
Speaker 1: Airport that would get you there god ten minutes, but

860
00:43:43,080 --> 00:43:46,880
Speaker 1: that the Taxi Commission is so powerful they paid like

861
00:43:47,239 --> 00:43:50,400
Speaker 1: local politicians to never open it, but that there was

862
00:43:50,560 --> 00:43:53,080
Speaker 1: plans for basically you could go to Grand Central Station

863
00:43:53,200 --> 00:43:55,080
Speaker 1: and just get right to the airport, and they just

864
00:43:55,160 --> 00:43:58,840
Speaker 1: were like no, like taxi people were too powerful and

865
00:43:58,920 --> 00:44:00,359
Speaker 1: paid too much money to show down.

866
00:44:00,440 --> 00:44:03,120
Speaker 2: That's what happened in La. They had a they have

867
00:44:03,160 --> 00:44:06,000
Speaker 2: a subway that stops one mile from the airport, and

868
00:44:06,120 --> 00:44:10,080
Speaker 2: it was because of the taxi the taxi whatever companies

869
00:44:10,640 --> 00:44:12,759
Speaker 2: like just like paid an enormous amount of money to

870
00:44:12,840 --> 00:44:16,280
Speaker 2: make sure that the train stopped one mile from Lax

871
00:44:16,440 --> 00:44:18,520
Speaker 2: and so you have to take a taxi that final mile,

872
00:44:19,080 --> 00:44:20,960
Speaker 2: which is like, this is why this city is.

873
00:44:21,120 --> 00:44:24,600
Speaker 3: The way it is terrible. I hate to hear it.

874
00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:27,439
Speaker 3: I had a buddy when I was living in Brooklyn, Ross,

875
00:44:27,480 --> 00:44:28,920
Speaker 3: did you ever live in New York? No?

876
00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:32,480
Speaker 4: I honestly, I try to avoid New York as much

877
00:44:32,520 --> 00:44:35,400
Speaker 4: as I can. I'm just like, too chill. I'm like,

878
00:44:35,680 --> 00:44:37,360
Speaker 4: I'm very like, I.

879
00:44:37,680 --> 00:44:40,440
Speaker 5: Don't like hustle and bustle every time I go to

880
00:44:40,440 --> 00:44:43,920
Speaker 5: New York. I love it, but sure, oh and I

881
00:44:44,760 --> 00:44:46,280
Speaker 5: love it in a documentary.

882
00:44:46,320 --> 00:44:49,160
Speaker 2: I love it in a movie when it's a character

883
00:44:49,239 --> 00:44:51,359
Speaker 2: run to itself exactly.

884
00:44:52,200 --> 00:44:56,439
Speaker 4: But I don't I to get me there. It takes

885
00:44:56,520 --> 00:44:56,839
Speaker 4: a lot.

886
00:44:57,880 --> 00:44:59,960
Speaker 3: Actually, what type curtain? I were hanging out in Prospect

887
00:45:00,080 --> 00:45:02,120
Speaker 3: Park and they were building this new glass condo that

888
00:45:02,360 --> 00:45:04,680
Speaker 3: was just such an eye sore, just stuck out like

889
00:45:04,760 --> 00:45:08,200
Speaker 3: it was all beautiful old New York buildings near Flatbush,

890
00:45:08,640 --> 00:45:11,360
Speaker 3: and I was like, that building's fucking terrible.

891
00:45:11,400 --> 00:45:13,200
Speaker 1: Can you believe they're doing that. Kurt's like, hey man,

892
00:45:13,320 --> 00:45:15,560
Speaker 1: that's what New York does. It just keeps changing and evolving.

893
00:45:15,640 --> 00:45:16,759
Speaker 1: You just got to get used to it. And I

894
00:45:16,920 --> 00:45:20,080
Speaker 1: was like, yeah, you're right now, I just feel so dumb,

895
00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:22,120
Speaker 1: and you're absolutely right. And that's the whole thing with

896
00:45:22,200 --> 00:45:26,280
Speaker 1: that city, is it? Just digests itself and grows constantly, constantly.

897
00:45:26,840 --> 00:45:31,160
Speaker 1: But I had a buddy, my roommate, and his then

898
00:45:31,239 --> 00:45:33,239
Speaker 1: girlfriend now wife moved in with us, and the three

899
00:45:33,280 --> 00:45:35,040
Speaker 1: of us were living together. It was really fun time.

900
00:45:35,400 --> 00:45:36,800
Speaker 1: But one night she was like, it's going to be

901
00:45:36,840 --> 00:45:38,879
Speaker 1: a girl's night. I'm going out with some girls from work,

902
00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:41,320
Speaker 1: So you nerds can do whatever you want. So we

903
00:45:41,440 --> 00:45:43,239
Speaker 1: went out and had a good time. We get back

904
00:45:43,920 --> 00:45:47,000
Speaker 1: and she had done the famous thing that Kurt and

905
00:45:47,040 --> 00:45:49,040
Speaker 1: I've done a million times on the subway where we

906
00:45:49,120 --> 00:45:51,160
Speaker 1: had a few too many and you get on that

907
00:45:51,280 --> 00:45:53,960
Speaker 1: subway line back home and you get a little bit comfortable,

908
00:45:54,040 --> 00:45:56,960
Speaker 1: and then you fall asleep and miss your subway stop

909
00:45:57,040 --> 00:46:03,440
Speaker 1: by sometimes twenty five stops, you know, we you know,

910
00:46:03,920 --> 00:46:05,319
Speaker 1: New York apartments aren't that big.

911
00:46:05,440 --> 00:46:08,279
Speaker 3: So I hear the phone ring at like or his

912
00:46:08,440 --> 00:46:11,360
Speaker 3: phone ring at like three or four am, and he's like,

913
00:46:11,560 --> 00:46:18,520
Speaker 3: uh huh, what where are you? Where? What where are you?

914
00:46:19,080 --> 00:46:21,040
Speaker 1: And then I get up because I'm a little concerned.

915
00:46:21,080 --> 00:46:24,160
Speaker 1: She's my friend too, And he comes out and we're

916
00:46:24,160 --> 00:46:26,840
Speaker 1: standing there. I'm like, where's she? And he goes She

917
00:46:27,120 --> 00:46:29,520
Speaker 1: just yelled at me, I don't know where I am

918
00:46:33,080 --> 00:46:36,080
Speaker 1: what signs are around you? And she had gotten on

919
00:46:36,160 --> 00:46:39,120
Speaker 1: a yellow line when we lived on the orange line,

920
00:46:39,280 --> 00:46:42,480
Speaker 1: and nothing connects to the yellow line unless you're like

921
00:46:42,719 --> 00:46:46,360
Speaker 1: in she went in the furthest direction, worst train, so

922
00:46:46,440 --> 00:46:47,880
Speaker 1: he had to get in his car that got he

923
00:46:47,960 --> 00:46:49,640
Speaker 1: at a car and go get her at like four am.

924
00:46:49,719 --> 00:46:51,480
Speaker 1: But it's so funny to get off a subway and

925
00:46:51,560 --> 00:46:54,160
Speaker 1: be like, well, I don't know where the fuck I am.

926
00:46:54,520 --> 00:46:55,680
Speaker 3: This is impossible.

927
00:46:56,200 --> 00:46:57,000
Speaker 4: I had one time.

928
00:46:57,400 --> 00:46:59,120
Speaker 5: This is not at all the same, but it's kind

929
00:46:59,120 --> 00:47:01,239
Speaker 5: of an LA equivalent. One time I had to get

930
00:47:01,239 --> 00:47:04,280
Speaker 5: a rental car and then I went to the Westfield

931
00:47:04,360 --> 00:47:07,520
Speaker 5: Century City Mall in Century City, which has the biggest

932
00:47:07,560 --> 00:47:11,000
Speaker 5: parking structure ever, insane, and I forgot what my car

933
00:47:11,160 --> 00:47:15,800
Speaker 5: looked like that I rented. Oh my god, and I

934
00:47:15,920 --> 00:47:18,120
Speaker 5: forgot where I parked. I just like got out of

935
00:47:18,239 --> 00:47:20,480
Speaker 5: my car and went into the mall and I came

936
00:47:20,560 --> 00:47:21,880
Speaker 5: back and I was like, I don't know what my

937
00:47:21,960 --> 00:47:24,279
Speaker 5: car looks like. It didn't have a little beep thing

938
00:47:24,560 --> 00:47:28,880
Speaker 5: on the keychain, and I spent six hours trying to

939
00:47:29,000 --> 00:47:29,799
Speaker 5: find my car.

940
00:47:30,160 --> 00:47:31,520
Speaker 2: How did you find it? Eventually?

941
00:47:31,760 --> 00:47:33,719
Speaker 5: Well, I called a friend to come pick me up

942
00:47:33,760 --> 00:47:38,000
Speaker 5: and we drove around the entire thing and I literally

943
00:47:38,400 --> 00:47:40,359
Speaker 5: just I don't even remember. This was like over ten

944
00:47:40,440 --> 00:47:42,319
Speaker 5: years ago, but that was my.

945
00:47:42,520 --> 00:47:45,359
Speaker 3: Oh my god, but that is so real, and it's

946
00:47:45,440 --> 00:47:48,200
Speaker 3: two small mistakes, right, It's the only mistake is you

947
00:47:48,400 --> 00:47:51,120
Speaker 3: didn't really pay attention what floor you were on.

948
00:47:51,920 --> 00:47:54,800
Speaker 1: And then also you didn't just go like it is

949
00:47:54,920 --> 00:48:01,520
Speaker 1: a white Honda Civic like that is so easy done, man,

950
00:48:02,680 --> 00:48:03,280
Speaker 1: carror movie.

951
00:48:03,440 --> 00:48:04,600
Speaker 2: I had just take a photo.

952
00:48:05,400 --> 00:48:06,560
Speaker 4: Well, yeah, I do that.

953
00:48:06,640 --> 00:48:10,040
Speaker 5: I certainly learned my lesson, but I I have like

954
00:48:11,480 --> 00:48:15,000
Speaker 5: some kind of disease where I can't remember what cars

955
00:48:15,080 --> 00:48:18,640
Speaker 5: look like like I don't. My brain does not digest

956
00:48:18,920 --> 00:48:22,399
Speaker 5: cars like I don't. It just doesn't work that way. Yeah,

957
00:48:23,840 --> 00:48:24,920
Speaker 5: how I get in a message.

958
00:48:25,040 --> 00:48:26,800
Speaker 1: I learned because I was a big partyer in my

959
00:48:26,880 --> 00:48:28,759
Speaker 1: twenties that whenever I was in a new city and

960
00:48:28,880 --> 00:48:32,160
Speaker 1: had either rental car, hotel room and thank god for smartphones,

961
00:48:32,200 --> 00:48:33,840
Speaker 1: I take a picture of my car. I take a

962
00:48:33,920 --> 00:48:36,640
Speaker 1: picture of my hotel door with the number on it,

963
00:48:36,880 --> 00:48:39,960
Speaker 1: and so like when I eventually am browning out, I

964
00:48:40,040 --> 00:48:43,240
Speaker 1: look at it, I'm like I'm on the sixteenth floor.

965
00:48:43,800 --> 00:48:46,960
Speaker 1: Oh two, got it? And then but I've done that

966
00:48:47,080 --> 00:48:49,000
Speaker 1: for years because of what you're saying. I've gotten into

967
00:48:49,080 --> 00:48:51,960
Speaker 1: hotels after like weddings and been like is this the

968
00:48:52,080 --> 00:48:54,600
Speaker 1: right hotel? What floor am I supposed to be going to?

969
00:48:55,120 --> 00:48:56,800
Speaker 1: It's a crazy feeling. And then when you go to

970
00:48:56,880 --> 00:48:59,600
Speaker 1: the front desk and you're like, hey, I lost my

971
00:48:59,719 --> 00:49:01,160
Speaker 1: key and you give me an idea, and they're like,

972
00:49:02,320 --> 00:49:04,960
Speaker 1: you're in the wrong hotel, man, Like, you're not in

973
00:49:05,080 --> 00:49:05,600
Speaker 1: this Hilton.

974
00:49:05,840 --> 00:49:07,759
Speaker 3: Is there another Hilton in town? Because I'm pretty sure

975
00:49:07,760 --> 00:49:09,440
Speaker 3: it was a Hilton? No, there is it.

976
00:49:09,760 --> 00:49:13,600
Speaker 5: I lock myself out all the time, and I have

977
00:49:13,960 --> 00:49:17,719
Speaker 5: a landlord that lives on property that I've had to

978
00:49:17,840 --> 00:49:21,560
Speaker 5: call so many times, and it's it's always because I'm

979
00:49:21,600 --> 00:49:24,560
Speaker 5: wearing some kind of crazy outfit for like a Halloween

980
00:49:24,719 --> 00:49:27,239
Speaker 5: party or like whatever it is, and I didn't bring

981
00:49:27,360 --> 00:49:30,480
Speaker 5: like a purse or my normal stuff, and so I

982
00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:33,360
Speaker 5: just don't bring my key. Or it's always because someone's

983
00:49:33,400 --> 00:49:35,239
Speaker 5: coming to pick me up, like a lift or whatever,

984
00:49:35,280 --> 00:49:37,680
Speaker 5: and it's because I'm going to something where there's not

985
00:49:37,760 --> 00:49:40,399
Speaker 5: good parking, and so then as soon as I leave,

986
00:49:40,560 --> 00:49:42,880
Speaker 5: I remember that I didn't bring my key and I

987
00:49:42,960 --> 00:49:45,319
Speaker 5: have to call my landlord and then I'm over here

988
00:49:45,520 --> 00:49:48,319
Speaker 5: in like some a fucking two tu with a head

989
00:49:48,800 --> 00:49:51,440
Speaker 5: you know, dress like I don't head piece, you know,

990
00:49:52,680 --> 00:49:54,200
Speaker 5: And yeah, it's embarrassing.

991
00:49:55,000 --> 00:49:58,399
Speaker 1: If you make a copy of your key, your house key,

992
00:49:58,800 --> 00:50:01,960
Speaker 1: and you get one of those meg netick little keyholder things,

993
00:50:02,239 --> 00:50:05,960
Speaker 1: you can walk and put it underneath the closest blue mailbox,

994
00:50:06,160 --> 00:50:07,520
Speaker 1: like the public mailbox thing.

995
00:50:07,800 --> 00:50:08,880
Speaker 3: I used to do that in Brooklyn.

996
00:50:09,000 --> 00:50:11,040
Speaker 1: That was always because I would leave my key, but

997
00:50:11,200 --> 00:50:13,560
Speaker 1: you basically hide your higher key so far away from

998
00:50:13,560 --> 00:50:16,200
Speaker 1: your apartment nobody could ever figure out which one was yours.

999
00:50:16,400 --> 00:50:19,160
Speaker 1: But you can always go to that mailbox and reach

1000
00:50:19,239 --> 00:50:22,000
Speaker 1: underneath and get your spare and go in. Just just

1001
00:50:22,080 --> 00:50:23,200
Speaker 1: a friendly tip, thank you.

1002
00:50:23,400 --> 00:50:27,080
Speaker 5: I figured something else which I won't tell these people listening,

1003
00:50:27,280 --> 00:50:27,839
Speaker 5: just in case.

1004
00:50:27,960 --> 00:50:33,839
Speaker 1: Yes freaks, Yeah, but I have one send us home.

1005
00:50:34,640 --> 00:50:37,160
Speaker 1: This one's a fun one because it's a little little

1006
00:50:37,400 --> 00:50:40,800
Speaker 1: ros ghosted adjacent, but also kind of a call to

1007
00:50:41,000 --> 00:50:43,120
Speaker 1: our listeners to go out and go to this place

1008
00:50:43,200 --> 00:50:44,360
Speaker 1: and send us some picks.

1009
00:50:45,520 --> 00:50:46,759
Speaker 3: This is from Emily.

Speaker 1: I hope you don't have to ever sign checks. This

1013
00:50:57,480 --> 00:50:59,840
Speaker 1: was on CNN, written by the best in the Beeswax,

00:52:02,760 --> 00:52:05,600
Speaker 1: So people love nature golf. Every year, millions of people

1036
00:52:05,640 --> 00:52:08,399
Speaker 1: across the globe put their way around an endless array

1037
00:52:08,440 --> 00:52:11,800
Speaker 1: of obstacles in the pursuit of bragging rights. Few players, however,

1038
00:52:11,880 --> 00:52:13,640
Speaker 1: would describe it as a sport.

1039
00:52:13,400 --> 00:52:17,319
Speaker 3: To die for. Oh good writing, Jeff, talk you, Jeff.

1040
00:52:17,560 --> 00:52:21,480
Speaker 1: Yet, at one unique venue in Illinois, death is par

1041
00:52:21,719 --> 00:52:24,440
Speaker 1: for the course. Here it is Jeff is hitting it

1042
00:52:24,640 --> 00:52:31,640
Speaker 1: out of the great Welcome to algram Akers, a macabre

1043
00:52:31,800 --> 00:52:36,560
Speaker 1: mini golf experience buried underneath a operational funeral home. In

1044
00:52:36,760 --> 00:52:40,760
Speaker 1: nineteen sixty four, Roger Algrim strolled into the Algrim Family

1045
00:52:40,840 --> 00:52:44,960
Speaker 1: Funeral Services newly constructed building located in the leafy village

1046
00:52:45,000 --> 00:52:50,840
Speaker 1: of Palatine, Pa l a Tyne Peloton.

1047
00:52:51,320 --> 00:52:54,360
Speaker 3: Hey, get one for yourself. I've always wanted to.

1048
00:52:55,000 --> 00:52:57,919
Speaker 2: You know, there's been a I can't believe I'm about

1049
00:52:57,920 --> 00:53:03,520
Speaker 2: to do this joke. Tine Aerial Border has been under

1050
00:53:03,560 --> 00:53:03,960
Speaker 2: a lot.

1051
00:53:03,840 --> 00:53:08,600
Speaker 3: Of Okay, Okay, he went for it. He went for it.

1052
00:53:09,480 --> 00:53:15,600
Speaker 1: Such a there's just no s high the Palatine Rally Border. Yeah,

1053
00:53:15,840 --> 00:53:21,120
Speaker 1: controversial hot spot, he went. It's a suburb of Chicago,

1054
00:53:21,960 --> 00:53:24,200
Speaker 1: he has. He explored his new building. He discovered a

1055
00:53:24,400 --> 00:53:27,600
Speaker 1: vast basement some twenty feet below ground with no windows.

1056
00:53:27,760 --> 00:53:30,320
Speaker 1: It could serve little purpose for a funeral business, but

1057
00:53:30,600 --> 00:53:33,520
Speaker 1: Algrim soon found a use for the room. Algrim and

1058
00:53:33,560 --> 00:53:36,760
Speaker 1: his sole employee mapped out and built a fully fledged

1059
00:53:36,840 --> 00:53:40,680
Speaker 1: nine hole miniature golf course designed to serve his children

1060
00:53:40,840 --> 00:53:43,960
Speaker 1: and the local neighborhood. Within a decade, it had become

1061
00:53:44,040 --> 00:53:47,760
Speaker 1: a major part of the quote community room end quote,

1062
00:53:48,120 --> 00:53:50,719
Speaker 1: which included a full sized shuffle board court, a ping

1063
00:53:50,800 --> 00:53:52,880
Speaker 1: punk table. This is under a funeral home, mind you,

1064
00:53:53,280 --> 00:53:57,000
Speaker 1: a bumper poll table classic, and a foosball table hand

1065
00:53:57,080 --> 00:54:01,160
Speaker 1: built when Algrim was a teenager. Today so this is

1066
00:54:01,160 --> 00:54:03,719
Speaker 1: still fully operational. So again, ban animals. If you live

1067
00:54:03,800 --> 00:54:07,960
Speaker 1: in the Palatine area and you can go golfing here,

1068
00:54:08,200 --> 00:54:14,480
Speaker 1: please send us some photos. Because the course, which is

1069
00:54:14,560 --> 00:54:16,920
Speaker 1: free to play, free of charge to play, and has

1070
00:54:17,000 --> 00:54:21,480
Speaker 1: continuously been developed over its fifty nine year history, leans

1071
00:54:21,560 --> 00:54:25,480
Speaker 1: into its unique setting a cob themed and eerily lit

1072
00:54:25,600 --> 00:54:28,839
Speaker 1: in the absence of natural light. The ghoulish features begin

1073
00:54:29,040 --> 00:54:32,560
Speaker 1: from the outset. Nestled in the sandtrap of the first

1074
00:54:32,640 --> 00:54:36,840
Speaker 1: hole is Roger Algram's very own sculpting skull from his

1075
00:54:37,080 --> 00:54:40,880
Speaker 1: mortuary school. So when he learned how to form facial features,

1076
00:54:40,960 --> 00:54:44,120
Speaker 1: he built this skull and you can now put under

1077
00:54:44,160 --> 00:54:49,520
Speaker 1: it on the first hole, there's a moving guillotine. There

1078
00:54:49,640 --> 00:54:52,960
Speaker 1: are life size grim reapers. There is a water trap

1079
00:54:53,200 --> 00:54:56,960
Speaker 1: with a miniature mausoleum. There are tiny gravestones so players

1080
00:54:57,040 --> 00:54:59,840
Speaker 1: must avoid. I mean this sounds pretty fucking great to me.

1081
00:55:00,239 --> 00:55:01,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, it sounds really fun.

1082
00:55:04,760 --> 00:55:06,759
Speaker 3: So yeah, that's it. We'll we'll wrap it up type.

1083
00:55:06,760 --> 00:55:09,440
Speaker 1: But yeah, but animals, if you guys go to Algrim's

1084
