Speaker 5: It is.

76
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:02,320
Speaker 1: And there was an entry level system in place with

77
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:04,920
Speaker 1: Comedy Central and MTV and VH one and True TV

78
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:06,280

00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:07,000
Speaker 5: It's all gone.

80
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:09,160

81
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:11,200
Speaker 1: the AR okay understand because all of us when we

82
00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 1: turn on our TV, it's you know, you go to

83
00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:16,120
Speaker 1: the streamers or if you still have Sling or something

84
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:19,359
Speaker 1: like a direct TV. But for the most part, for

85
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:23,560
Speaker 1: comedy writers, the first step from I'm writing, I have

86
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:26,480
Speaker 1: a script, I do stand up to television. All of

87
00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:27,760
Speaker 1: those networks are now gone.

88
00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:31,400
Speaker 6: They're gone. I would like that should have been my trajectory. Okay,

89
00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:33,920
Speaker 6: I would have gotten a Comedy Central special. I would

90
00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:37,320

91
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:40,839
Speaker 6: two seasons. Come on, you know my workaholics type thing.

92
00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:42,720
Speaker 6: That would have been my where you yeah, I love

93
00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:44,839
Speaker 6: workall and that would have been where you learn and

94
00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:48,480
Speaker 6: you pick things up. And now it's like everyone will

95
00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:51,160
Speaker 6: tell comedy writers, you first write a drama, and if

96
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:53,919

00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:10,479
Speaker 4: and it appears Red Lobster is learning that the hard way.

124
00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:14,640
Speaker 4: In an earnings report call in early November, Ludovic Reggers

125
00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:21,839
Speaker 4: regis Enrie Garnier, that's the frenchiest name. The CFO of

126
00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:28,599
Speaker 4: Thai Union Group. I don't okay, Jones rod Leinster I had.

127
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:31,080
Speaker 4: I don't know if that company is from Thailand, but

128
00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:35,120
Speaker 4: that would be interesting. Announced that Ultimate Endless Shrimp Deal,

129
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:37,280
Speaker 4: which is normally a limited time off for what was

130
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:40,960
Speaker 4: added to the daily menu in June, was exceedingly popular,

131
00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:44,040
Speaker 4: so popular that it caused the restaurant train to post

132
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:47,560
Speaker 4: an operating loss of more than eleven million dollars.

133
00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:48,320
Speaker 1: Of the third.

134
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:52,679
Speaker 5: That's a lot of shrimp. That is so much shrimp.

135
00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:59,400
Speaker 4: This was okay, So here's the just the straight numbers

136
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:02,159
Speaker 4: for it. A shrimp debacle could be putting Red Lobster

137
00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:05,080
Speaker 4: in real trouble. According to Restaurant Business, the restaurant's parent

138
00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:10,000
Speaker 4: company had expected its losses to hover around seventeen million

139
00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:13,280
Speaker 4: earlier this year, but are better than expected second quarter

140
00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:17,080
Speaker 4: boosted that number to just fourteen million. Now, however, those

141
00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:24,600
Speaker 4: losses are expected to total around twenty million dollars of it's.

142
00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:25,520
Speaker 2: Just from endless shrimp.

143
00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:29,520
Speaker 6: I mean, somebody had to run the numbers on this.

144
00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:33,000
Speaker 6: Come on, like, it's shrimp. If it's endless, I'm gonna

145
00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:36,920
Speaker 6: eat it like not that big. Yeah, this isn't like

146
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:40,239
Speaker 6: an olive garden pasta thing where you can't eat pasta's filling.

147
00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:41,880
Speaker 5: Can there's an end there?

148
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:42,320
Speaker 3: Max?

149
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:42,680
Speaker 1: Yah?

150
00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:43,160
Speaker 5: Yeah.

151
00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:46,360
Speaker 6: Shrimp No, No, you could stay there for hours and

152
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:48,440
Speaker 6: just snack on shrimp and drinks all.

153
00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:51,280
Speaker 1: I think popcorn shrimp is the one seafood that even

154
00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:53,760
Speaker 1: people that don't like seafood are like, no, I'll eat

155
00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:54,440
Speaker 1: popcorn shrimp.

156
00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:58,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, because you can't spite the exactly, it's just spreading.

157
00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:02,480
Speaker 1: It's like they're shrimp in here here it is.

158
00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:06,080
Speaker 2: This is a quote for Garnier the CFO.

159
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:11,080
Speaker 4: We knew the price was cheap, but the idea was

160
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:13,400
Speaker 4: to bring more traffic in the restaurants, so we wanted

161
00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:16,800
Speaker 4: to boost our trafficked and it didn't work. To be fair,

162
00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:19,000
Speaker 4: according to the earnings called the Clan, the chain of

163
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:22,120
Speaker 4: six hundred seventy restaurants did experience a four percent year

164
00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:25,760
Speaker 4: over year growth. So it just kept getting more, like people,

165
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:29,080
Speaker 4: more and more people kept going. And it was twenty

166
00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:33,080
Speaker 4: dollars for people to get as much of two different

167
00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:33,920
Speaker 4: types of shrimp.

168
00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:37,199
Speaker 1: Twenty bucks. That's so cheap for seafood.

00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:22,040
Speaker 1: It was on. Yeah, it's next to my dad, along

210
00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:28,040
Speaker 1: with my Costco card and my prescription card. So yeah,

211
00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:30,319
Speaker 1: this is so weird that you're doing this story. I've

212
00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:34,040
Speaker 1: been thinking about this, dude. I ten, god eleven years ago.

213
00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:36,000
Speaker 1: I was having dinner and this guy was telling me

214
00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:39,520
Speaker 1: how embarrassing his parents are because their favorite restaurant is

215
00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:43,280
Speaker 1: Red Lobster, and his dad will eat the entire basket

216
00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:47,280
Speaker 1: of cheddar Bay biscuits before the drinks are served. Yes,

217
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:49,920
Speaker 1: his dad would hold the basket on the side of

218
00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:53,040
Speaker 1: the table and tap it on the side empty, so

219
00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:57,080
Speaker 1: that the paper and the plastic would tap until the

220
00:10:57,160 --> 00:11:00,080
Speaker 1: server would bring more Cheddar Bay biscuits. I was like,

221
00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:03,200
Speaker 1: are they good? He's like, they are incredible.

222
00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:05,959
Speaker 5: Yeah, So the next they're incredible.

223
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:09,400
Speaker 1: I've heard they're great. So the next time. I've only

224
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:11,720
Speaker 1: seen this dude two times in my whole life. The

225
00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:15,160
Speaker 1: next time I saw him, he gave me seventy five

226
00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:18,320
Speaker 1: dollars worth of Red Lobster. And I think there's one

227
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:20,880
Speaker 1: in the valley that's like, yeah, thirty minutes away.

228
00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:23,520
Speaker 5: Thirty Yeah, that's that's the closest one.

229
00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:24,679
Speaker 1: I'm happy to treat.

230
00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:26,199
Speaker 2: Let's go.

231
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:29,440
Speaker 1: I have five more dollars. I can buy all of

232
00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:32,160
Speaker 1: us and the shrimp for these two guards.

233
00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:35,520
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean seventy five dollars Red Lobster is already

234
00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:39,520
Speaker 6: too much money. That's that's more than you could probably

235
00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:43,000
Speaker 6: ever spend. I also am pretty sure the biscuits come free,

236
00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:45,000
Speaker 6: like I think you just yeah, you get them when

237
00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:45,640
Speaker 6: you sit down.

238
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:46,840
Speaker 1: Yep. Yes.

239
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:49,800
Speaker 4: And also, so here's what I was I was saying, well,

240
00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:52,040
Speaker 4: we should definitely go to Red Lobster first and foremost.

241
00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:52,160
Speaker 1: Guy.

242
00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:56,600
Speaker 4: Secondly, this is something I've been thinking about. I was

243
00:11:56,600 --> 00:12:02,200
Speaker 4: talking about haibachi for a different level ass and I

244
00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:05,800
Speaker 4: think we need to do a Banana's hibachi thing done

245
00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:08,440
Speaker 4: like where it's like, I don't know, some type of

246
00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:11,640
Speaker 4: like thing, maybe a contest or whatever, but it's like

247
00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:16,480
Speaker 4: eight people we go to like a Habachi meal in

248
00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:18,160
Speaker 4: some city all together.

249
00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:22,199
Speaker 1: Okay, crew ere legal, but that sounds fun.

250
00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:25,000
Speaker 2: Right, I want to do that.

251
00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:28,280
Speaker 4: I love hibachi. I love habachi so much and I

252
00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:32,160
Speaker 4: haven't been in years. Yeah, Benny's gone to Habachi.

253
00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:36,040
Speaker 6: Probably high school. Honestly there it was a big thing

254
00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:36,920
Speaker 6: in my high school.

255
00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:38,880
Speaker 2: You went this New Year's Eve, where is one?

256
00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:42,280
Speaker 1: Last Year's even key West.

257
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:44,559
Speaker 5: Very key West activity.

258
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:47,680
Speaker 1: I thought it would be so funny. I went and

259
00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:51,040
Speaker 1: saw Robert the Haunted doll that if you have to say, please,

260
00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:53,000
Speaker 1: let me take a photo of you, and then rode

261
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:56,520
Speaker 1: a golf cart to a Benny Hannah and it went ham.

262
00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:57,360
Speaker 1: It was good.

263
00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:00,560
Speaker 5: It's good, Yeah, delicious.

264
00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:03,400
Speaker 4: Did you know the owner of Benny Hannah is Steve

265
00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:04,440
Speaker 4: Aoki's father.

266
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:07,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, everybody knows that except for me.

267
00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:14,600
Speaker 6: There was like a joke about it in I want

268
00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:16,200
Speaker 6: to say Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt.

269
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:17,400
Speaker 5: That's the only reason I know.

270
00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:20,080
Speaker 6: They do a whole thing where they just call that

271
00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:26,600
Speaker 6: restaurant like Steve Aoki's dad's restaurant. So I do have

272
00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:29,800
Speaker 6: a Red Lobster story. And yeah, I mean I grew

273
00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:33,360
Speaker 6: up relatively poor, so Red Lobster was very fancy for

274
00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:37,360
Speaker 6: my family. And I grew up in Rockford, Illinois, where

275
00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:39,760
Speaker 6: that is one of the finer options to eat at.

276
00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:43,360
Speaker 6: And my family and my entire family we were banned

277
00:13:43,559 --> 00:13:47,280
Speaker 6: from the Red Lobster in our town for a solid

278
00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:49,960
Speaker 6: three months. But it's because so my mom had a

279
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:52,560
Speaker 6: really good friend who worked there, and she would hook

280
00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:55,760
Speaker 6: us up. If you want endless shrimp, befriend someone who

281
00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:56,880
Speaker 6: works at Red Lobster.

282
00:13:57,280 --> 00:13:59,560
Speaker 5: They'll bring you endless shrimp. And she would just do that.

283
00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:01,480
Speaker 6: She'd be like, whatever, you guys here, my buddies. She

284
00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:03,760
Speaker 6: would hook us up, and she got in trouble. She

285
00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:06,480
Speaker 6: got caught because they like, finally one day whatever managers

286
00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:08,960
Speaker 6: was like, you just gave them like one hundred dollars

287
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:10,040
Speaker 6: worth of free stuff.

288
00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:13,600
Speaker 5: But instead of firing her, they banned you.

289
00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:16,720
Speaker 6: They banned us and were like they can't come back,

290
00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:19,960
Speaker 6: and you took advantage and she was like cool, yeah,

291
00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:22,240
Speaker 6: just wait, this guy's gonna get fired and like three

292
00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:24,440
Speaker 6: months and when the new manager comes around, it won't matter.

293
00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:28,760
Speaker 6: And that's precisely what happened. Yes, there's no wall where

294
00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:29,800
Speaker 6: they put our pictures.

295
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:31,520
Speaker 5: And they were like this family, like no.

296
00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:33,440
Speaker 6: The next they were just like, who gives a shit

297
00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:34,160
Speaker 6: feed them?

298
00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:37,480
Speaker 4: Has anybody here ever had their picture taken and put

299
00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:39,600
Speaker 4: on the wall of an establishment to not be allowed

300
00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:39,920
Speaker 4: back in?

301
00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:44,080
Speaker 5: No, no, no, I waited too many tables.

302
00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:49,640
Speaker 4: Happened to me once I was maybe twenty years old,

303
00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:52,920
Speaker 4: what'd you do? And it was the nine to thirty

304
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:56,560
Speaker 4: Club in Washington, DC? Yeah, good club I went to

305
00:14:56,640 --> 00:15:00,560
Speaker 4: go see. It was probably nineteen ninety five or so,

306
00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:04,680
Speaker 4: and I went to go see the Jesus Lizard and

307
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:08,720
Speaker 4: and it was very lack of security to get in,

308
00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:10,760
Speaker 4: and we knew that because we've been there a bunch.

309
00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:14,680
Speaker 4: And so we came up from Baltimore and I had

310
00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:19,520
Speaker 4: in my bag just a Mason jars, like two Mason

311
00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:24,120
Speaker 4: jars of tequila and then like got them, walked into

312
00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:26,840
Speaker 4: a club with my own alcohol because I didn't a

313
00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:30,560
Speaker 4: have enough money to buy drinks there, and b I

314
00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:34,880
Speaker 4: didn't I wasn't twenty one, And so then we stupidly

315
00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:40,280
Speaker 4: go into we buy orange juice at the bar and

316
00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:41,080
Speaker 4: then go.

317
00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:45,480
Speaker 6: Normal adults buying orange juice at the bar.

318
00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:48,720
Speaker 2: Punks, can I guess, get one orange juice please?

319
00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:51,840
Speaker 4: And then we happened to go and then we go

320
00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:54,680
Speaker 4: into like this chill out lounge which was like a

321
00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:58,440
Speaker 4: square And what I did not realize was that the

322
00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:03,520
Speaker 4: lighting for the whole room came from black lights that

323
00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:06,560
Speaker 4: were stuffed underneath the chairs that we were sitting on.

324
00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:09,640
Speaker 4: And I put my bag down and took out the

325
00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:12,880
Speaker 4: tequila and put it on the ground, thinking it was

326
00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:17,640
Speaker 4: hidden in the like that the darkness under the air,

327
00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:21,160
Speaker 4: and instead there was a black light that lit.

328
00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:21,480
Speaker 1: It up.

329
00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:25,320
Speaker 4: So that you could see it from across the club.

330
00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:27,960
Speaker 4: And within three minutes we were kicked out. They took

331
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:30,360
Speaker 4: our photos and I watched them pin them to the

332
00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:34,200
Speaker 4: wall and said you are banned from the nine thirty club.

333
00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:36,160
Speaker 4: And then we had to sit and listen to the

334
00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:41,080
Speaker 4: Jesus Lizard through outside while all of our rest of

335
00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:45,920
Speaker 4: our friends were inside enjoying what was a spectacular show, apparently.

336
00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:53,040
Speaker 1: At Amherst Brewing Company in Amherst, Massachusetts, which you're supposed

337
00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:55,920
Speaker 1: to say Amherst really, Yeah, yeah.

338
00:16:55,960 --> 00:17:01,440
Speaker 6: First, I went to school in Western Massachusetts, Williams College.

339
00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:05,160
Speaker 1: Look, that's a good school that yeah, way, way, it is.

340
00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:08,119
Speaker 6: Better than Amherst. Also, they were our biggest rival.

341
00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:11,200
Speaker 1: They're huge rivals, Kurt, They're wildly huge rivals.

342
00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:13,840
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's called like the biggest little rivalry in the

343
00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:16,159
Speaker 6: world because no one else knows about it except for

344
00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:17,720
Speaker 6: people who go to Williams or Amherst.

345
00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:24,199
Speaker 1: But good Summer Acting program good, yes, yes, Williamstown.

346
00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:25,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, Williamstown Theater Festival is really good.

347
00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:29,880
Speaker 1: Uh So. My buddy Jacob Jones I've talked about before

348
00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:33,480
Speaker 1: in the pod. Good friend worked at ABC Amherst Brewing Company,

349
00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:37,840
Speaker 1: and my favorite thing about going and drinking there was, well,

350
00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:41,560
Speaker 1: they're really strict about light IDs. So every fake idea,

351
00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:44,760
Speaker 1: and this is a college town with five colleges within

352
00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:49,080
Speaker 1: five miles, they would just punch a hole and then

353
00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:51,480
Speaker 1: hang it on this loop. And while SKIP was working,

354
00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:53,600
Speaker 1: I would just ask for the loop and I would

355
00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:57,040
Speaker 1: say it was maybe two hundred and fifty confiscated fake IDs,

356
00:17:57,320 --> 00:17:59,280
Speaker 1: and I would just flip through them and they were

357
00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:04,720
Speaker 1: in I had bad photos. Somebody that was like a

358
00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:06,920
Speaker 1: guy with a beard. It would say female one hundred

359
00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:11,439
Speaker 1: and ten pounds, and it was like everything was It

360
00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:14,440
Speaker 1: was incredible. It was like the best bar activity ever

361
00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:16,240
Speaker 1: is to see all the people that got caught and

362
00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:18,159
Speaker 1: then they took them punched a hole and hung them

363
00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:19,760
Speaker 1: on this rope that you could just look at.

364
00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:23,760
Speaker 6: It was, Oh, there's such a high possibility that if

365
00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:27,280
Speaker 6: you had been there around twenty nine ten, you would

366
00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:28,160
Speaker 6: have seen my ID.

367
00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:30,199
Speaker 1: I mean that one. Oh.

368
00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:32,440
Speaker 6: Yeah, we would go from Williams to amhers because that's

369
00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:35,760
Speaker 6: like there were actual other colleges and people around. Williams

370
00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:39,360
Speaker 6: is very isolated, so we'd go there, and I mean

371
00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:41,160
Speaker 6: before I was twenty one, it was just like, well,

372
00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:42,160
Speaker 6: just they don't really care.

373
00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:43,120
Speaker 5: It's a college town.

374
00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:47,160
Speaker 6: I definitely got at least two IDs taken in Amherst.

375
00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:49,399
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was pretty strict there because of that, and

376
00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:52,479
Speaker 1: all the IVY leagues would come into. Like I went

377
00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:55,240
Speaker 1: to UMass and that was such a party school that

378
00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:58,800
Speaker 1: like on weekend, especially in the fall semester, like freshmen

379
00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:01,560
Speaker 1: from Harvard would come to UMass to party and they

380
00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:03,760
Speaker 1: would tell you they were like, we are here to

381
00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:06,800
Speaker 1: get drunk and fucked up and play beer pong, and yep,

382
00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:11,080
Speaker 1: thirty racks up there instead of thirty packs of beer.

383
00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:12,640
Speaker 5: They're like, yeah, thirty racs rack.

384
00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:17,879
Speaker 1: All the schools would come to U Mass I just

385
00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:18,920
Speaker 1: go hard.

386
00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:21,359
Speaker 6: That's what we did. Oh yeah, that was the party

387
00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:22,520
Speaker 6: town for us nerds.

388
00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:25,320
Speaker 1: That's pretty great.

389
00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:30,439
Speaker 4: I do have one other endless food option story that

390
00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:32,360

00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:34,720
Speaker 4: it back later. I do want to give this to

00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:37,480
Speaker 4: you because this is fascinating. This is just an example

393
00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:39,080
Speaker 4: of how you can do it a little different than

394
00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:43,600
Speaker 4: red lobster. Okay, this was in the New Yorker magazine. Yeah,

Speaker 4: feet tall and fifteen feet wide. All lobster, all lobster

399
00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:06,760

400
00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:09,480
Speaker 4: on top with his arms in the air. It is

401
00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:13,960
Speaker 4: like and then all around it is like crab legs,

402
00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:17,960
Speaker 4: big giant crabs, clams, and so it's all you can eat.

00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:30,720
Speaker 6: over there.

478
00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:34,320
Speaker 4: Also, it doesn't feel to me like a tower until

479
00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:35,560
Speaker 4: it hits the third level.

480
00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:37,879
Speaker 6: Yeah, you need a third level for a tower.

481
00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:40,320
Speaker 4: One, even if you've got two shrimp up there. Yeah, like,

482
00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:41,240
Speaker 4: now we have a tower.

483
00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:43,760
Speaker 6: Yeah, and if you do pose it so it looks

484
00:23:43,800 --> 00:23:45,840
Speaker 6: like it's performing at a halftime show, then I will

485
00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:46,560
Speaker 6: enjoy that too.

486
00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:50,000
Speaker 1: Yeah. Snowmanning and a snowman until you get that third

487
00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:52,960
Speaker 1: ball on ti right balls on top of each other.

488
00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:55,760
Speaker 5: Yeah, really creepy, just good.

489
00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:58,480
Speaker 1: I agree. It's not a seper tower until you get

490
00:23:58,520 --> 00:23:59,440
Speaker 1: to the third tier.

491
00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:01,000
Speaker 5: Exactly precisely.

492
00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:04,560
Speaker 4: Wow, Oki doky, let's move on this. I think it's

493
00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:06,760
Speaker 4: the name. I think that's the name of this episode.

494
00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:08,919
Speaker 4: It's not a seafood tower until you get to the

495
00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:09,720
Speaker 4: third tier.

496
00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:10,880
Speaker 5: Until you get to the Yeah.

497
00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:16,080
Speaker 1: Type it in, Katie, her fingers are Isla Birch sent

498
00:24:16,160 --> 00:24:18,400
Speaker 1: this in. I like that name, Isla Birch. I think

499
00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:21,880
Speaker 1: she's said good. It sounds like a high end umbrella company.

500
00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:22,960
Speaker 5: Yeah.

501
00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:25,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, like I got a three hundred dollars umbrella from

502
00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:26,600
Speaker 1: Isla Birch.

503
00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:28,320
Speaker 5: Yeah. Oh is that an Isla Birch?

504
00:24:30,280 --> 00:24:33,600
Speaker 1: Isla just saying you might have a side hustle coming

505
00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:38,040
Speaker 1: your way. This was written by Abby Carney, who's so

506
00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:42,560
Speaker 1: good at writing about stories like this for Runnersworld dot Com.

507
00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:47,439
Speaker 1: Classic trail Runner Trapped inside a public smart toilet for

508
00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:48,440
Speaker 1: over ten minutes.

509
00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:53,879
Speaker 4: Wow, wait on a trail. There's a smart toilet on

510
00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:55,280
Speaker 4: a trail. I'm intrigued.

511
00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:58,800
Speaker 1: You know it's not America. You can guess that right. Always.

512
00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:03,520
Speaker 1: Sometimes smart technology intended to make life more convenient can

513
00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:06,600
Speaker 1: turn into more of a nightmare scenario. That was one

514
00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:09,880
Speaker 1: trail runner's experience in Hong Kong recently, when he found

515
00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:13,880
Speaker 1: himself trapped inside a public toilet for ten minutes according

516
00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:16,959
Speaker 1: to the standard. The automated smart toilet system was just

517
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:19,320
Speaker 1: installed a month ago, and the man had to be

518
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:22,080
Speaker 1: rescued by someone who opened the door from the outside.

519
00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:27,240
Speaker 1: Local politician Michael Tien Poukson told newspaper told the newspaper

520
00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:33,160
Speaker 1: that he found the incident concerning what a what a neutral.

521
00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:37,480
Speaker 5: State concerned concerning concerning huh?

522
00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:42,000
Speaker 1: Tien had heard the restroom had no emergency contact information

523
00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:45,440
Speaker 1: posted inside of it and no other way to seek insistence,

524
00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:49,879
Speaker 1: excuse me assistance. The runner used the most traditional method,

525
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:54,119
Speaker 1: knocking on the door and shouting, why this guy have

526
00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:54,760
Speaker 1: a cell phone?

527
00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:56,600
Speaker 5: I was so, come on, where's your phone?

528
00:25:56,960 --> 00:26:00,480
Speaker 1: Yeah? He's just running free and shouting to solve this

529
00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:04,240
Speaker 1: intelligence problem, he told the newspaper. I have the impression

530
00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:07,120
Speaker 1: that this public toilet may be smart, but the person

531
00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:09,240
Speaker 1: who designed it is not smart at all.

532
00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:14,720
Speaker 5: Burn Oh.

533
00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:18,720
Speaker 1: Today, in a Legislative Council meeting, Diane Wong Shu Khan,

534
00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:22,600
Speaker 1: the Undersecretary for Environment and Ecology, said the smart toilet

535
00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:27,000
Speaker 1: had quote initiation problems end quote that have since been solved.

536
00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:30,520
Speaker 1: She also said the restroom has an electronic lock that

537
00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:33,480
Speaker 1: can be opened and closed by waving at the sensor,

538
00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:37,359
Speaker 1: as well as a manual door lock. However, the electronic

539
00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:40,960
Speaker 1: lock cannot be accessed if the manual lock is in use.

540
00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:46,960
Speaker 1: So there's I mean, that's stupid, that's not smart. If

541
00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:49,439
Speaker 1: you lock it by hand and not by sensor, and

542
00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:51,439
Speaker 1: then you use the sensor, you have to unlock it

543
00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:52,399
Speaker 1: by hand.

544
00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:53,359
Speaker 2: Makes sense.

545
00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:57,560
Speaker 4: That makes sense to me, It makes sense. What does

546
00:26:57,600 --> 00:27:01,639
Speaker 4: that mean at that point? Yeah, been that he locked

547
00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:02,960
Speaker 4: himself in and then.

548
00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:08,200
Speaker 1: That is what this means. Yes, and that's signage.

549
00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:10,879
Speaker 6: Like ten minutes is not a long time. Frankly, ten

550
00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:13,879
Speaker 6: minutes time, that's not of standard toilet time. Really, So

551
00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:15,159
Speaker 6: what are you complaining about here?

552
00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:15,320
Speaker 1: Guy?

553
00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:17,280
Speaker 2: It's washed a couple of times.

554
00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:19,399
Speaker 4: I can see why it's a story, but it doesn't

555
00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:21,520
Speaker 4: sound like he got washed a couple times.

556
00:27:21,960 --> 00:27:24,639
Speaker 1: Sounds kind of nice, right, just ten minutes to yourself

557
00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:27,959
Speaker 1: in Hong Kong. Yeah, a very populous city.

558
00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:31,080
Speaker 6: Yeah, well ten minute oasis there.

559
00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:37,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, a little staycation with a seat. According to Wong,

560
00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:41,040
Speaker 1: the toilet also has an emergency door switch, and after

561
00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:45,120
Speaker 1: an inspection spurred by the incident, personnel confirmed that there

562
00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:46,520
Speaker 1: was no issue with it.

563
00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:53,600
Speaker 6: Again, I'm this seems this is maybe just this guy's problem.

564
00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:56,959
Speaker 6: This seems like a skill issue. I yeah, maybe I'm

565
00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:59,520
Speaker 6: built different, but I'm not getting locked in this toilet personally.

566
00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:01,240
Speaker 2: I famous.

567
00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:04,040
Speaker 4: How does he get a story about this? I locked

568
00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:06,440
Speaker 4: myself in a bathroom for ten minutes. I should get

569
00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:06,879
Speaker 4: a story.

570
00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:07,479
Speaker 2: I've done that.

571
00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:13,040
Speaker 1: You gotta remember this is in Runnersworld dot com, looking

572
00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:17,399
Speaker 1: for any runner doing anything except getting a cramp.

573
00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:22,440
Speaker 4: I'm surprised it's not on smart tooilet dot com.

574
00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:28,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, Fionado Yeah. In response to this situation, instructions have

575
00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:32,080
Speaker 1: been posted inside the toilet to help aid future bathroom

576
00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:36,040
Speaker 1: patrons should they find themselves unable to exit the smart stall.

577
00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:40,120
Speaker 1: He just didn't understand is basically what they say too.

578
00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:44,760
Speaker 1: And then because Abby Carney is the best in the biz.

579
00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:47,440
Speaker 1: She says, we can all sympathize with the panic he

580
00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:50,360
Speaker 1: likely felt, especially if the toilet was located in a

581
00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:52,160
Speaker 1: less traffic trail area.

582
00:28:52,360 --> 00:28:56,680
Speaker 5: I mean, sure, sure, sure, sure, yeah.

583
00:28:57,120 --> 00:29:00,360
Speaker 1: I am shocked that cities like LA and New York

584
00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:04,200
Speaker 1: don't have more and more paid toilets everywhere that are nice. Yeah.

585
00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:06,640
Speaker 1: I think right, there's like supper winning business.

586
00:29:06,920 --> 00:29:07,200
Speaker 5: Yeah.

587
00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:10,400
Speaker 4: Oh h, I think I knew exactly where all of

588
00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:12,080
Speaker 4: the at least when I lived there, I knew where

589
00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:14,440
Speaker 4: all of them were. There was one in Madison Square Park,

590
00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:17,560
Speaker 4: there was one in Harold Square, there was one. There

591
00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:19,360
Speaker 4: wasn't even one in Time Square, which is weird. You

592
00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:21,680
Speaker 4: think you want a public toilet that cleans itself in

593
00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:22,440
Speaker 4: Times Square on.

594
00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:27,000
Speaker 1: New Year's Eve? You could make ten dollars for two

595
00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:29,760
Speaker 1: minutes and you would have people going constantly.

596
00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:32,920
Speaker 6: Yeah, and they do clean pretty well, the self cleaning ones.

597
00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:35,280
Speaker 6: I mean they basically just spray the water down with

598
00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:36,200
Speaker 6: anti septic.

599
00:29:36,320 --> 00:29:37,800
Speaker 5: But that's that works for me.

600
00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:42,160
Speaker 1: A delight, so much better than the nine hundred coffee shops.

601
00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:43,880
Speaker 1: I bought a cup of coffee and said, I don't

602
00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:45,840
Speaker 1: even want it. I just need to use your bathroom,

603
00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:48,760
Speaker 1: and then you'd walk by like all the dry goods,

604
00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:52,240
Speaker 1: all the containers still in packaging, step over broken tiles,

605
00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:54,680
Speaker 1: and then like you'd be like, oh okay, and now

606
00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:57,280
Speaker 1: this toilet has no seat and you all work here

607
00:29:57,320 --> 00:29:58,240
Speaker 1: and the sink doesn't work.

608
00:29:58,320 --> 00:30:01,440
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, you know, and you both are men, you

609
00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:02,920
Speaker 6: probably don't have to deal with this. But when you

610
00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:05,400
Speaker 6: do the coffee shot bathroom, you're like, fine, I'm using

611
00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:07,720
Speaker 6: it's not even that and I mean you have to

612
00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:09,720
Speaker 6: you can't hover and you gotta sit and it's warm,

613
00:30:10,080 --> 00:30:15,360
Speaker 6: and it's one, and you're like, ah.

614
00:30:13,320 --> 00:30:17,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, you're looking around that restaurant going who.

615
00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:18,560
Speaker 5: Who was it? Who was it?

616
00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:20,959
Speaker 6: Right before me? I know one of you did it,

617
00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:22,080
Speaker 6: and it's just uh.

618
00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:26,320
Speaker 1: Yeah. I went to one in Switzerland. I was an

619
00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:28,680
Speaker 1: inter lock and on a hike and there was just

620
00:30:28,760 --> 00:30:32,440
Speaker 1: two public restrooms that weren't locked, and then the cleanest bathrooms. Yeah,

621
00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:35,840
Speaker 1: just in the woods. That's beautiful. And like we folded

622
00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:37,959
Speaker 1: the toilet paper into a triangle to see if anybody

623
00:30:38,040 --> 00:30:39,760
Speaker 1: used it, and two days later just went back and

624
00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:42,800
Speaker 1: it was just sitting there, toilet papers still folded. This

625
00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:45,640
Speaker 1: This is just the greatest thing. It was incredible.

626
00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:46,800
Speaker 2: That's amazing.

627
00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:51,280
Speaker 6: Other countries, so yeah, yeah, they're they're bathroom, They're so

628
00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:54,560
Speaker 6: good everywhere else. And then America you you just are like,

629
00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:57,680
Speaker 6: well that's a hole and it's fine and okay, I'll

00:30:57,680 --> 00:30:57,960
Speaker 6: make do.

631
00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:01,880
Speaker 1: Yes, well that cup of coffee for that whole if

00:31:34,600 --> 00:31:38,120
Speaker 1: It's I agree. If you're going to this length, you

644
00:31:38,120 --> 00:31:40,800

688
00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:07,040
Speaker 4: YEAHV I say, with Ashley Ray.

689
00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:10,799
Speaker 6: TV, I say it is all about television. I was

690
00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:14,359
Speaker 6: a TV critic for a while for Vulture, the av Club,

691
00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:18,000
Speaker 6: a few sites, and when I started writing for TV.

692
00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:19,440
Speaker 5: You got to stop doing that.

693
00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:22,000
Speaker 6: You can't be a TV critic and be a comic,

694
00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:24,880
Speaker 6: you know, you piss people off when they're like, oh,

695
00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:28,000
Speaker 6: you gave my episode of The Real O'neils a C

696
00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:31,800
Speaker 6: minus in twenty twelve, and you'll never work.

697
00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:35,759
Speaker 5: In this town. So I put it, you know, to

698
00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:36,360
Speaker 5: the side.

699
00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:39,120
Speaker 6: But I still wanted a place to talk about TV

700
00:34:39,239 --> 00:34:41,400
Speaker 6: because I just love it, you know, but not with

701
00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:45,920
Speaker 6: the pretense and stress of criticism. So I started this

702
00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:50,319
Speaker 6: podcast during the pandemic and really just used people I

703
00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:52,480
Speaker 6: knew online and mutual friends to be like, will you

704
00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:55,080
Speaker 6: be a guest and just come talk about whatever shows

705
00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:58,919
Speaker 6: you like? So it's you know, comedians, actors like Seth

706
00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:02,719
Speaker 6: Rogan talking about ninety Day Fiance, which he's obsessed with,

707
00:35:02,760 --> 00:35:07,160
Speaker 6: which he knows so much about the show, or you

708
00:35:07,160 --> 00:35:11,439
Speaker 6: know like Nicole Byer who is also obsessed with ninety

709
00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:14,520
Speaker 6: Day Fiance, and like just a lot of true crime stuff.

710
00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:17,720
Speaker 6: So it's a place where people can you know, really

711
00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:20,680
Speaker 6: talk about the TV they love and appreciate without being

712
00:35:20,680 --> 00:35:23,840
Speaker 6: afraid that they're gonna upset some writer actor somewhere.

713
00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:27,120
Speaker 2: That's great at What's what are you watching right now?

714
00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:29,960
Speaker 5: If I may ask a lot of things, honestly.

715
00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:33,120
Speaker 6: Palm Royelle, Yeah, like I do watch everything because I

716
00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:34,080
Speaker 6: got to talk about it.

717
00:35:34,239 --> 00:35:36,640
Speaker 2: I just watched the first episode of Palm Royle last night.

718
00:35:36,680 --> 00:35:38,440
Speaker 1: I like, what do we think? What's those review? I

719
00:35:38,440 --> 00:35:39,360
Speaker 1: haven't seen it.

720
00:35:39,360 --> 00:35:42,600
Speaker 6: It's good for me. It took a bit of time

721
00:35:42,600 --> 00:35:44,600
Speaker 6: to get going. But I think because the cast is

722
00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:48,960
Speaker 6: so star studded. You have Kristin Wig, Carol Burnett, Alison Janey,

723
00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:54,920
Speaker 6: it's just Ricky Martin all stars and they they Carol Burnett,

724
00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:56,839
Speaker 6: they wait a while before they let her come out

725
00:35:56,840 --> 00:35:58,760
Speaker 6: the gate and really do what she does.

726
00:35:59,040 --> 00:36:00,920
Speaker 5: So for me, I was like, come on, let's just wait.

727
00:36:00,960 --> 00:36:03,640
Speaker 6: Don't we get in the care And when they bring

728
00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:05,760
Speaker 6: her out, it's like, Okay, now we got a show.

729
00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:10,040
Speaker 4: I did feel that the it's stylized in a way

730
00:36:10,120 --> 00:36:12,800
Speaker 4: that at first kind of pushed me away.

731
00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:13,439
Speaker 5: Yeah.

732
00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:16,040
Speaker 4: I didn't want it to be that kind of stylized.

733
00:36:16,080 --> 00:36:18,879
Speaker 4: I was like, I'm kind of done. I'm annoyed by

734
00:36:18,960 --> 00:36:22,920
Speaker 4: this quirkiness. Yeah, but Kristin Wig just makes you like

735
00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:25,520
Speaker 4: it because she's so good. She sells not playing a

736
00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:28,360
Speaker 4: Kristen Wig character either, which is exciting.

737
00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:31,200
Speaker 6: It feels really different for her, and I'm like, just

738
00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:32,000
Speaker 6: really different for her.

739
00:36:32,080 --> 00:36:34,879
Speaker 5: Yeah, and something she's doing in her career. So it's

740
00:36:34,880 --> 00:36:36,200
Speaker 5: on Apple TV. Check it out.

741
00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:40,520
Speaker 6: Oh there's another Apple TV show I just started and

742
00:36:40,560 --> 00:36:44,239
Speaker 6: the new Look. Uh no, no, people told me that

743
00:36:44,280 --> 00:36:45,520
Speaker 6: one was bad, So.

744
00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:50,320
Speaker 4: It's excellent, is it? I think the new Look is excellent, Yeah.

745
00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:52,560
Speaker 6: Because I like I read one review that was just

746
00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:57,799
Speaker 6: like this doesn't hold them to accountability enough for being

747
00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:00,479
Speaker 6: Nazis or something, and I was like, Okay, I guess

748
00:37:00,480 --> 00:37:01,319
Speaker 6: I shouldn't watch.

749
00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:03,120
Speaker 2: It's like they tell yeah, like it will.

750
00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:08,080
Speaker 4: So no, like Christian Jure, it's Christian Gure and and Chanel,

751
00:37:08,440 --> 00:37:11,960
Speaker 4: and Chanelle closed her shop and the Nazis invaded, but

752
00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:16,080
Speaker 4: then collaborated with them to sue her former Jewish partner. Yes,

753
00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:22,480
Speaker 4: Whereas Christian Jure designed dresses for Nazis, but then his

754
00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:25,319
Speaker 4: sister was taken into a camp because she was part

755
00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:28,440
Speaker 4: of the French Revolution, the French Reval, the French underground,

756
00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:32,520
Speaker 4: and and so is you know, vehemently anti Nazi, even

757
00:37:32,520 --> 00:37:34,600
Speaker 4: though he had to design because that was the only

758
00:37:34,640 --> 00:37:36,960
Speaker 4: way to like be able to feed himself. So it's

759
00:37:36,960 --> 00:37:40,480
Speaker 4: a very complicated kind of like things. See when you have,

760
00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:44,560
Speaker 4: like you know, essentially an invading force come and take

761
00:37:44,600 --> 00:37:47,600
Speaker 4: over your country, but your country is still functioning and

762
00:37:47,640 --> 00:37:49,600
Speaker 4: like up and run and stuff. It's very I think

763
00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:52,600
Speaker 4: it's really really interesting and it's very well acted and

764
00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:53,440
Speaker 4: very well written.

765
00:37:54,280 --> 00:38:01,200
Speaker 5: Now I'm u, that's that's the question.

766
00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:06,320
Speaker 6: That is the question ice fishing somewhere in Wisconsin.

767
00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:10,680
Speaker 1: I don't know. I want to hear the story of

768
00:38:11,680 --> 00:38:13,960
Speaker 1: Gosh versu the Nazis.

769
00:38:15,719 --> 00:38:18,719
Speaker 4: So people always ask this, like when they write in

770
00:38:19,160 --> 00:38:22,400
Speaker 4: the first show we're talking about was Palm Royal on

771
00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:24,840
Speaker 4: Apple and the second show we're talking about was New Look,

772
00:38:25,080 --> 00:38:27,920
Speaker 4: because people always say like, please repeat the name later,

773
00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:30,160
Speaker 4: and I'm always liked.

774
00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:33,800
Speaker 6: Yes, both on Apple TV, which is killing the game lately.

775
00:38:33,880 --> 00:38:35,759
Speaker 5: Honestly, they're really killing the game.

776
00:38:36,400 --> 00:38:38,840
Speaker 6: The Masters of the Air, that was the other Apple

777
00:38:38,880 --> 00:38:42,000
Speaker 6: TV show I just finished, which I didn't think.

778
00:38:41,840 --> 00:38:42,400
Speaker 5: Would be for me.

779
00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:46,200
Speaker 6: It is a total old white dad show, no offense.

780
00:38:47,440 --> 00:38:49,719
Speaker 5: It's about World War two and people fly.

781
00:38:49,920 --> 00:38:53,200
Speaker 6: It's literally made by Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks.

782
00:38:53,440 --> 00:38:55,600
Speaker 4: And I was like, put in credit sequence, You're like, oh,

783
00:38:55,600 --> 00:38:59,480
Speaker 4: I'm gonna hate this show and it's so awesome.

784
00:39:00,120 --> 00:39:01,719
Speaker 5: Like I was like, you know, I like Austin Butler,

785
00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:02,520
Speaker 5: I'll give it a chance.

786
00:39:02,760 --> 00:39:05,160
Speaker 6: Three episodes in, I'm just like sobbing, I'm like, these

787
00:39:05,160 --> 00:39:05,840
Speaker 6: are my boys.

788
00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:06,840
Speaker 5: We gotta get them home.

789
00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:14,240

824
00:40:58,719 --> 00:41:01,000
Speaker 4: like people wouldn't notice this person just like.

825
00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:04,439

848
00:42:27,440 --> 00:42:30,960
Speaker 1: I can't imagine. During his stay at the resort, I

849
00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:34,720
Speaker 1: just felt like somebody stabbing me in my private area.

850
00:42:34,840 --> 00:42:37,840
Speaker 1: Farchie said. It felt like sharp glass or a knife.

851
00:42:38,360 --> 00:42:43,239
Speaker 1: Upon investigation, Farchie found the source of the pain. I

852
00:42:43,280 --> 00:42:45,920
Speaker 1: went to the restroom and I saw a scorpion hanging

853
00:42:45,960 --> 00:42:47,040
Speaker 1: from my underwear.

854
00:42:47,400 --> 00:42:49,920
Speaker 5: No, would you have to go to the bathroom to

855
00:42:49,960 --> 00:42:50,319
Speaker 5: see that?

856
00:42:51,600 --> 00:42:52,120
Speaker 2: Crazy?

858
00:42:56,880 --> 00:43:00,880
Speaker 1: and his family checked out one day earlier than expected.

859
00:43:00,920 --> 00:43:04,000

Speaker 1: his hotel room, the California man admitted that he did not. Quote,

869
00:43:22,960 --> 00:43:25,080

Speaker 4: Also, like, there's so many things that to be worried

897
00:44:50,440 --> 00:44:53,960
Speaker 4: about when you're staying at a hotel, but a scorpion

898
00:44:54,280 --> 00:44:59,240
Speaker 4: inside your bed is never something I anticipated.

899
00:44:59,640 --> 00:45:02,359

00:45:10,239 --> 00:45:10,439
Speaker 2: Any?

00:45:10,600 --> 00:45:12,560
Speaker 6: Yeah, because I mean you got to travel a ways

906
00:45:12,600 --> 00:45:15,160
Speaker 6: to get there. So, yeah, I have friends who are

907
00:45:15,320 --> 00:45:19,000
Speaker 6: terrified of bedbugs. In a hotel beds and I just this,

908
00:45:19,080 --> 00:45:21,319
Speaker 6: would they do a check every time? And I think

909
00:45:21,320 --> 00:45:23,680
Speaker 6: if they found a scorpion they would never stay in

910
00:45:23,719 --> 00:45:24,880
Speaker 6: a bed in a hotel again.

911
00:45:25,480 --> 00:45:25,760
Speaker 2: Yeah.

912
00:45:25,880 --> 00:45:28,160

913
00:45:28,239 --> 00:45:31,040
Speaker 1: year ago when we were when we were touring, and

914
00:45:31,200 --> 00:45:33,840
Speaker 1: I I just got rid of everything. I put every

915
00:45:33,840 --> 00:45:36,319
Speaker 1: single thing I had on, including my luggage, and just

916
00:45:36,760 --> 00:45:40,279

Speaker 2: No, where was that?

919
00:45:46,719 --> 00:45:48,040

Speaker 1: You live, you learn, you know, you learned. And what

Speaker 1: we've learned is that Scotty post weekend.

925
00:46:02,120 --> 00:46:03,440
Speaker 2: Scotty books of hotels.

926
00:46:03,480 --> 00:46:08,040

929
00:46:14,160 --> 00:46:18,279

00:46:18,360 --> 00:46:23,600
Speaker 1: the hospital, they did say it was a scorpion sting.

931
00:46:25,960 --> 00:46:29,120
Speaker 1: The incident number from resort marked the event, Farchie said,

932
00:46:29,160 --> 00:46:31,880
Speaker 1: adding that he was one. Oh, he was considering legal action.

933
00:46:32,440 --> 00:46:35,160
Speaker 1: His attorney said the scorpion sting has been a source

934
00:46:35,200 --> 00:46:37,160
Speaker 1: of trauma for his client.

935
00:46:37,960 --> 00:46:38,240
Speaker 2: Yeah.

936
00:46:38,400 --> 00:46:41,080
Speaker 1: I mean yeah, he did get stung on the testicles

937
00:46:41,080 --> 00:46:42,680
Speaker 1: while he was asleep in a hotel room.

938
00:46:42,719 --> 00:46:43,640
Speaker 2: That's terrifying.

939
00:46:43,760 --> 00:46:44,960
Speaker 5: That would be dramatic to me.

940
00:46:45,280 --> 00:46:47,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, it would be traumatic, Like every time you go

941
00:46:47,480 --> 00:46:50,240
Speaker 4: to bed, I would be like, there's I'm gonna get stung.

942
00:46:50,360 --> 00:46:52,360
Speaker 5: I'd have to check every bed for the rest of

943
00:46:52,360 --> 00:46:52,760
Speaker 5: my life.

944
00:46:52,800 --> 00:46:55,719
Speaker 4: Now, this guy, it would be cool if this guy,

945
00:46:55,840 --> 00:46:58,319
Speaker 4: like if a shark bit off his leg next time

946
00:46:58,360 --> 00:46:59,400
Speaker 4: he went to a hotel.

947
00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:01,920

970
00:48:12,719 --> 00:48:15,120
Speaker 1: She was so bad at it. And as soon as

Speaker 1: lot of comics. There are a lot of creative people,

977
00:48:37,000 --> 00:48:38,880
Speaker 1: and so we would get drunk and buy pictures of

00:50:06,840 --> 00:50:07,080
Speaker 6: in it.

00:50:07,480 --> 00:50:12,080
Speaker 1: Oh interesting, this is so interesting. See this is a

1010
00:50:12,120 --> 00:50:16,480
Speaker 1: great one. See for example, lies would go everything you

1011
00:50:16,600 --> 00:50:19,759
Speaker 1: drink only water for the rest of your life, or

1012
00:50:19,840 --> 00:50:24,759
Speaker 1: your eyes are on the back of your head. I'm

1013
00:50:24,760 --> 00:50:25,319
Speaker 1: going water.

1014
00:50:25,560 --> 00:50:26,480
Speaker 5: Gotta go with the water.

1015
00:50:30,000 --> 00:50:32,719
Speaker 1: Oh gosh, Kurt, do you have an answer to that one?

Speaker 1: That's a really good one.

1017
00:50:33,880 --> 00:50:34,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, this is a tough one.

1018
00:50:35,760 --> 00:50:38,000
Speaker 1: Katie Levine, what's your answer for this one? Type it

1019
00:50:38,040 --> 00:50:39,839
Speaker 1: in for or say it for us. We want to know.

1020
00:50:43,080 --> 00:50:44,359
Speaker 1: I would go pee?

1021
00:50:44,880 --> 00:50:45,480
Speaker 2: Is the question?

1022
00:50:46,200 --> 00:50:47,879
Speaker 5: That was a point that came up.

1023
00:50:48,280 --> 00:50:50,359
Speaker 6: You don't get to know really the source of the pea,

1024
00:50:50,800 --> 00:50:53,440
Speaker 6: and it could be your own pea. It's kind of

1025
00:50:53,520 --> 00:50:56,000
Speaker 6: like a up for grabs type deal.

1026
00:50:56,880 --> 00:50:58,319
Speaker 2: Uh huh.

1027
00:50:58,960 --> 00:51:01,200
Speaker 1: The bomber is the water you would drink, would have

1028
00:51:01,480 --> 00:51:03,160
Speaker 1: the water would be the worst thing to drink or

1029
00:51:03,239 --> 00:51:06,040
Speaker 1: drinks a lot of water, that's yeah, yeah, so it

1030
00:51:06,080 --> 00:51:08,520
Speaker 1: would taste a little like urine for the rest.

1031
00:51:08,320 --> 00:51:10,279
Speaker 5: Of the rest of your life. All the water is

1032
00:51:10,280 --> 00:51:11,000
Speaker 5: basically just.

1033
00:51:13,680 --> 00:51:13,880
Speaker 6: In it.

1034
00:51:14,320 --> 00:51:16,080
Speaker 1: I'm sure it's happened to be fifteen.

1035
00:51:16,320 --> 00:51:19,359
Speaker 6: So yeah, So that's why I went drop a pee

1036
00:51:19,400 --> 00:51:21,879
Speaker 6: because I was like, I think, honestly, if we had

1037
00:51:21,880 --> 00:51:23,880
Speaker 6: a black light, most things have a little.

1038
00:51:23,719 --> 00:51:28,239
Speaker 4: Pe in it, probably probably, But here's the question. But

1039
00:51:28,280 --> 00:51:30,200
Speaker 4: here's the question. It's like you have to know how

1040
00:51:30,200 --> 00:51:33,520
Speaker 4: many drop like like if you can, you can everything

1041
00:51:33,560 --> 00:51:36,200
Speaker 4: you drink be a forty ounce container, because then a

1042
00:51:36,280 --> 00:51:38,759
Speaker 4: drop of pea in forty ounce is not a big deal.

1043
00:51:39,000 --> 00:51:41,360
Speaker 4: But if if it's to drop a pee for every

1044
00:51:41,400 --> 00:51:42,000
Speaker 4: eight ounce.

1045
00:51:42,120 --> 00:51:45,120
Speaker 6: It's any any cup, anything you're given. If you get

1046
00:51:45,120 --> 00:51:47,799
Speaker 6: a shot, it's gonna have a drop a pee in it.

1047
00:51:47,880 --> 00:51:50,200
Speaker 4: But then like a shot, like everything's killed because of

1048
00:51:50,200 --> 00:51:52,640
Speaker 4: the alcoholic Oh yeah, yeah, everything you drink, you just

1049
00:51:52,719 --> 00:51:54,000
Speaker 4: drink out of a bucket.

1050
00:51:54,280 --> 00:51:55,080
Speaker 2: That's what I think is.

1051
00:51:55,280 --> 00:51:59,360
Speaker 1: As now I'm back on. Yeah, now I'm staying.

1052
00:52:00,120 --> 00:52:00,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm staying.

1053
00:52:00,960 --> 00:52:05,439
Speaker 1: Peae carry a bucket of minute made around you. Good

1054
00:52:05,440 --> 00:52:06,200
Speaker 1: morning neighbor.

1055
00:52:07,080 --> 00:52:10,000
Speaker 2: About this bucket. But everything I drink has as a

1056
00:52:10,040 --> 00:52:11,040
Speaker 2: little pe in it.

1057
00:52:13,200 --> 00:52:15,520
Speaker 6: Enough that I don't that I don't notice this is

1058
00:52:15,560 --> 00:52:19,120
Speaker 6: my gallon of coffee, so I don't taste my pee.

1059
00:52:20,000 --> 00:52:23,040
Speaker 1: I might seem weird that I'm mourning this bucket, but

1060
00:52:23,160 --> 00:52:23,960
Speaker 1: the cool thing.

1061
00:52:23,960 --> 00:52:27,320
Speaker 5: Is you can barely taste the pea.

1062
00:52:28,040 --> 00:52:32,200
Speaker 4: I'm drinking less pee this way. Oh that is a

1063
00:52:32,239 --> 00:52:33,880
Speaker 4: great that is a great way.

1064
00:52:34,120 --> 00:52:36,520
