Yeah, I don't like any of the fruity ones. 8 00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:36,199 Speaker 1: I mean they taste fine, but I think they're just 9 00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:39,400 Speaker 1: like loaded with sugar generally in sweeteners and things. But yeah, 10 00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:42,960 Speaker 1: it's not fruit. It's like jam on the bottom, jelly. 11 00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:46,960 Speaker 1: You know. Do you like yogurt compo? Yeah?

Do you eat 15 00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:59,040 Speaker 1: it regularly? Uh? Not as much as I should, although 16 00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:02,400 Speaker 1: I recently did a blood tests and my protein was low, strangely, 17 00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:08,679 Speaker 1: so I'm gonna start eating more. Okay, what like you 18 00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:13,200 Speaker 1: sounded like Yeo'll believe that when I see it. No, no, no, 19 00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:15,840 Speaker 1: I was just curious what your yogurt intake was what 20 00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:18,640 Speaker 1: about you? You eat it every day? No, I should, Like, 21 00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:22,280 Speaker 1: I don't eat yogurt much. I'm constantly slapping it on 22 00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:26,760 Speaker 1: my kids baby plate and she loves it, and Emily 23 00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:29,360 Speaker 1: eats it, and I'm like, I need to eat more yogurt. 24 00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:30,880 Speaker 1: I mean, I like it. I just don't think about 25 00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:33,600 Speaker 1: it much. Yeah. What I do is sometimes in a 26 00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:36,760 Speaker 1: like a hotel or anywhere where they have the sort 27 00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:40,080 Speaker 1: of build your own parfait thing. Yes though a little 28 00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:46,000 Speaker 1: granola yeah, or granuela in there, maybe a little bit 29 00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:48,000 Speaker 1: of fresh fruit and mix that all up. And I 30 00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:49,440 Speaker 1: love it, And I'm like, I should do this every 31 00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:53,440 Speaker 1: day because, as we will find out, the benefits of 32 00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:56,680 Speaker 1: eating yogurt, which are sort of up in the air 33 00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:00,920 Speaker 1: as far as like hard facts, but it seems like 34 00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:03,640 Speaker 1: sort of regularly eating yogurt is kind of one of 35 00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:07,320 Speaker 1: the keys to getting the health benefits. That's that seems 36 00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:10,359 Speaker 1: to be generally agreed upon. Not like, oh I eight 37 00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:14,519 Speaker 1: yogurt today, that means healthier, right, Yeah, that's not That's 38 00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:17,040 Speaker 1: not how it works. Although I think it is like 39 00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:20,560 Speaker 1: just temporarily you're doing better for a second than you 40 00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 1: were before. But you know what, let me give you 41 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 1: a hint, buddy, Find a local bee keeper, and I 42 00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:30,679 Speaker 1: mean local, like no more than five six miles from 43 00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:35,040 Speaker 1: your house.

Yeah, but you get the 52 00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:03,959 Speaker 1: you know, health benefits from that honey too, you do, Yeah, 53 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:06,200 Speaker 1: I mean throw some uh, throw some broccoli in there. 54 00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:10,960 Speaker 1: They're a little broccoli in there, the Tonka truck. Anything 55 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 1: you can find. Just put on your yogurt, start eating. 56 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:16,440 Speaker 1: And we covered uh, we covered some of the stuff 57 00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:21,840 Speaker 1: in our probiotics cast yeah, a lot from how many 58 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:25,919 Speaker 1: years ago? Is that? Okay? Four years ago? But uh, 59 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:28,720 Speaker 1: I felt like yogurt deserved to live on its own. 60 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:32,480 Speaker 1: I was incredulous at first, but I came around. Actually, 61 00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 1: I I was like, chucks, right, so uh, let's get 62 00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:38,960 Speaker 1: into it. Um. I guess we should talk history, yes, 63 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:45,640 Speaker 1: because yogurt is one of those kind of great accidental discoveries, 64 00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:50,040 Speaker 1: uh that that came from many many years ago, kind 65 00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 1: of like a beer and stuff like that, because people, 66 00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:56,240 Speaker 1: you know, they think it's pretty clear that at some 67 00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 1: point many thousands of years ago in the Middle East, 68 00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:03,640 Speaker 1: people were transporting stuff like milk maybe like a goat's 69 00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 1: milk or whatever, probably goat and sheep first, Yeah, and 70 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:11,800 Speaker 1: they were transporting that and whatever disgusting animal bladder or 71 00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:15,720 Speaker 1: whatever they used to transport liquids and things like that. 72 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:19,520 Speaker 1: They got there and they're like, ah, this stuff is 73 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:26,200 Speaker 1: turned it's it's it's stinks um. But you know we're uh, 74 00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 1: it's it's a thousand years from being uh from being 75 00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 1: civilized humanity. So let's just try this stuff, right, Like, 76 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:36,719 Speaker 1: who's gonna who's gonna care or no, somebody clarked me 77 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,839 Speaker 1: some honey. Yeah, so they clarked themselves a little honey. 78 00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:42,719 Speaker 1: They ate a little bit of it. It was you know, 79 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:45,920 Speaker 1: thicker now and it had this kind of sour tangy 80 00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:50,599 Speaker 1: taste and one of those ancient Middle Eastern people said, hey, 81 00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:55,160 Speaker 1: this is not bad. And I think there's this guy 82 00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:59,120 Speaker 1: named um Adam Maskovitch. She wrote a post on the 83 00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 1: salt Um that he basically said, it's not and it's 84 00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:07,760 Speaker 1: not entirely an understatement to say like civilization was in 85 00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:11,839 Speaker 1: part built on yogurt. That was pretty neat. It really was, 86 00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:14,400 Speaker 1: because so all of a sudden, you have milk, and 87 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 1: everybody at the time was like, I can feed this 88 00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:20,200 Speaker 1: to my kid, but I can't. I can't keep milk down. 89 00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:24,000 Speaker 1: I poop all over my saddle basically while we're out riding. Um, 90 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 1: because this is the Mongolian steps right. Um. But I 91 00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:33,040 Speaker 1: have found that this weird, tangy version, the sour version 92 00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:36,400 Speaker 1: of milk that you call yogurt, Like I that doesn't 93 00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:38,800 Speaker 1: affect me at all. It's the weirdest thing. And so 94 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:41,360 Speaker 1: it's more people were able to eat this stuff, which 95 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:45,520 Speaker 1: is full of nutrients, lots of calories, and has a 96 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 1: tantalizing taste. People kind of gathered around the areas that 97 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 1: had yogurt and other stuff too, he points out, like 98 00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:57,279 Speaker 1: cheese and things like that, bread and beer. It's possible 99 00:05:57,279 --> 00:06:01,200 Speaker 1: beer was the real reason that civilization was did um. 100 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:05,280 Speaker 1: But the the the yogurt played no small role in that. 101 00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 1: In its fermentation, it is transformed, for that something from 102 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:13,160 Speaker 1: something that people who are lactose intolerant can't take to 103 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:16,479 Speaker 1: something that people who are lactose intolerant can actually eat 104 00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:19,680 Speaker 1: and benefit from. Yeah. So they had that conversation and 105 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:21,239 Speaker 1: at the end of it one of them said, also, 106 00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:24,320 Speaker 1: is it weird that we're humans and we're drinking animal 107 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 1: milk as adults? And they went, don't worry about that. Yeah, 108 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:31,679 Speaker 1: they said, stop thinking yourself is more than an animal. 109 00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:38,560 Speaker 1: You're an animal animal. So, um, it's really thrived in 110 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:41,000 Speaker 1: the Middle East. They love the stuff. Like you were 111 00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:46,440 Speaker 1: talking about um, it's actually a Turkish word yogurt is um. 112 00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 1: And it took a little bit longer to catch up 113 00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:52,560 Speaker 1: to Europe. Um. I think at the end of the 114 00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:55,839 Speaker 1: nineteenth century is really when it started to spread wide 115 00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:58,160 Speaker 1: in Europe and then and here in the United States. 116 00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:00,600 Speaker 1: It took to like the middle half of the twentieth 117 00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 1: century when it was mass marketed by Dannon for And 118 00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 1: it's not like we didn't eat yogurt at all, but 119 00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:10,160 Speaker 1: definitely not like I mean, in the Middle East it 120 00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:12,680 Speaker 1: was it's not like, Oh, we'll just eat some of 121 00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:14,680 Speaker 1: this for breakfast with fruit. I mean, it's in a 122 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:19,240 Speaker 1: lot of great, great dishes and dips and sauces, and 123 00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 1: it's it's kind of one of the staples of a 124 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:24,160 Speaker 1: lot of Middle Eastern food. So they're doing it right. Yeah, 125 00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 1: And so the Middle East seems to be the home 126 00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:30,520 Speaker 1: of yogurt. It was the home of civilization, and they 127 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:34,560 Speaker 1: think that yogurt's oldest civilization maybe a little older. Um 128 00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:37,520 Speaker 1: and Turkey seems to be some sort of like kind 129 00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:40,880 Speaker 1: of fulcrum for the spread of yogurt throughout the world. 130 00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:43,920 Speaker 1: And in fact, the word yogurt is a Turkish word. 131 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:47,240 Speaker 1: It comes from yogurt mok, which is Turkish meaning to 132 00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:51,840 Speaker 1: thicken and Turkey. The fact that we in the English 133 00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:55,960 Speaker 1: speaking world call it yogurt suggests that it was the 134 00:07:56,000 --> 00:08:01,440 Speaker 1: Turks who introduced the West to yogurt. But they're also 135 00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 1: pretty sure that Um Turkey was the ones who introduced 136 00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 1: yogurt to India as well. And the neighbors, the neighboring 137 00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:15,480 Speaker 1: areas around Turkey, like Bulgaria, Georgia, um Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Iran, 138 00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:18,120 Speaker 1: like all these areas are pretty famous for eating a 139 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:20,640 Speaker 1: lot of yogurt and even having their own kind of 140 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:24,080 Speaker 1: yogurt um or their own version of it. But something 141 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:27,880 Speaker 1: about Turkey really seems to be the like the pivot 142 00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:31,040 Speaker 1: point for the spread of yogurt in the world. Yeah, 143 00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:34,760 Speaker 1: and I can't find oh yeah here it is even today. 144 00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:39,880 Speaker 1: It says that uh, Turkish people eat about and this 145 00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:43,320 Speaker 1: was like four or five years ago, uh two eighty 146 00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:46,840 Speaker 1: two cups of yogurt per person per year, which is 147 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:49,560 Speaker 1: definitely more than in the United States. Well it was 148 00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:54,080 Speaker 1: at the time. We've since caught up quite quite a bit, 149 00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:55,880 Speaker 1: I think, yeah, I think that stat for us as 150 00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:59,760 Speaker 1: poundage though, right, yes, how many pounds of yogurt to eat? 151 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:04,920 Speaker 1: So we ate four point eight billion pounds of yogurt 152 00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:09,080 Speaker 1: in two thousand and seventeen, four point eight billion pounds 153 00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 1: in the United States ALONEA and yeah, we're not like 154 00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:16,720 Speaker 1: the highest yogurt eating um civilization on the planet by far, 155 00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 1: but that's like about the fifteen pounds per person thirteen 156 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 1: point seven pounds per person um, which really it sounds 157 00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:29,720 Speaker 1: like a lot, but yogurt weighs a lot, so it's 158 00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:32,600 Speaker 1: actually just thirty six servings per person per year in 159 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:37,600 Speaker 1: the United States. So that's yeah in Turkey two. Yeah, 160 00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:40,680 Speaker 1: that's a lot. Yeah. So Chuck, like you were saying, 161 00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:42,960 Speaker 1: like yogurt didn't really make its way over to the 162 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:46,400 Speaker 1: States until the twentieth century, right, and I think it 163 00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:49,000 Speaker 1: was and you said it was Dannon that brought it here. 164 00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:51,959 Speaker 1: That's right, in the Bronx. Yeah. They moved their operations 165 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:56,960 Speaker 1: from um Spain, Barcelona, I think, to the Bronx, which 166 00:09:57,000 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 1: is really weird because like America was not a yogurt 167 00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:06,520 Speaker 1: eating culture at all, not not really, no, but they 168 00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:09,320 Speaker 1: brought yogurt to play, said where in the world would 169 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 1: be the hardest place to get a foothold business wise, 170 00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:14,600 Speaker 1: Let's move our operations there. So they moved into the 171 00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 1: Bronx and then just started slowly working on America. And 172 00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:21,920 Speaker 1: it wasn't until they figured out the fruit on the 173 00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:26,719 Speaker 1: bottom thing that America said, Oh, okay, we like this. 174 00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:31,560 Speaker 1: It's sweet, it's not some disgusting tangy soured milk. We 175 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:35,199 Speaker 1: can put like compote and jam in it and it's good. 176 00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:37,840 Speaker 1: And that when is when it started to take off. 177 00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:40,640 Speaker 1: And basically you have Dan and Yogurt to thank for 178 00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:45,439 Speaker 1: bringing yogurt to America. And it wasn't until but maybe 179 00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:49,000 Speaker 1: two thousand ten or thirteen before we finally started to 180 00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:53,760 Speaker 1: shed like all the extra gunk and actually get into 181 00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:56,200 Speaker 1: yogurt the way that the rest of the world's been 182 00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:58,200 Speaker 1: eating it for thousands of years, with like what we 183 00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:01,280 Speaker 1: call Greek yogurt, the way the Good Lord intended. That's right. 184 00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:04,720 Speaker 1: Do you want to take a break? Yeah? Cool? All right, 185 00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:06,520 Speaker 1: well we're about to take a break and we're gonna 186 00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:30,640 Speaker 1: come back with more yogurt. Alright. So we talked about 187 00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:36,240 Speaker 1: probiotics in the episode on probiotics. Yeah, it was a 188 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 1: good episode if I remember correctly, it was so as 189 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:44,160 Speaker 1: a as a brief recap. Uh. Probiotics Uh in food 190 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 1: Uh they're like culture concentrates and in some kind in 191 00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 1: some foods. Sometimes they're in dietary supplements. Uh. Sometimes they're 192 00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:56,600 Speaker 1: in things like yogurt and cheese, fermented dairy products, and 193 00:11:56,920 --> 00:12:01,080 Speaker 1: it's they're usually bacteria. Uh. Sometimes you can yeast connect 194 00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:04,040 Speaker 1: as a probiotic. But when you generally think probiotic, you 195 00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:08,920 Speaker 1: think of good bacteria uh used to ferment milk. Um. 196 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:12,000 Speaker 1: And then sometimes with things like yogurt, they add in 197 00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:17,360 Speaker 1: other bacteria on top of that. Right, which is great, 198 00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:20,000 Speaker 1: just add some more bacteria as long as it's the 199 00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:23,800 Speaker 1: good kind. Basically, Yeah, but sometimes they add bacteria that's 200 00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:27,400 Speaker 1: not considered probiotic too, right. I I looked that up. 201 00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:30,240 Speaker 1: I couldn't find what they were talking about unless it's 202 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:34,560 Speaker 1: actually a probiotic bacteria that just hasn't been shown to 203 00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:40,480 Speaker 1: be probiotic just at this time. That's all I could 204 00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:43,360 Speaker 1: get from it. So, and with probiotics is a kind 205 00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:46,240 Speaker 1: of a quick overview. It's just basically like it's beneficial 206 00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 1: bacteria that's in your gut. And when you're born, you're 207 00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:52,320 Speaker 1: not born with your own microbiome. I think you get 208 00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:54,440 Speaker 1: it from breast milking. You get a coating of it 209 00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:59,080 Speaker 1: as you exit your mother's vagina. Okay, so you you 210 00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:02,080 Speaker 1: develop it quickly, but it's kind of like gifted to 211 00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 1: you UM very shortly after birth. You build it out 212 00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:10,800 Speaker 1: exactly so UM as your as you age and live, 213 00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:14,320 Speaker 1: like some stuff dies, some stuff gets pooped out of you, 214 00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:19,079 Speaker 1: but it's constantly reproducing. But the point of probiotics, whether 215 00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:22,640 Speaker 1: it's in pilform or whether it is a pre biotic 216 00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:27,199 Speaker 1: like a banana something that can feed probiotic bacteria or 217 00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:31,760 Speaker 1: if it's yogurt, is to replenish the bacteria, this good, 218 00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:35,160 Speaker 1: healthy bacteria that lives in your gut and does all 219 00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:39,079 Speaker 1: sorts of things, from help you produce serotonin that that 220 00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:44,520 Speaker 1: stabilizes your mood, to um, digesting your food and moving 221 00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:48,160 Speaker 1: poop through your intestines faster, all the amazing things. I 222 00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 1: also want to direct people. We did a microbiome episode 223 00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:54,880 Speaker 1: which is one of the all time most fascinating episodes 224 00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:57,880 Speaker 1: we ever did. Do you remember that one? No, No, 225 00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:01,760 Speaker 1: the one that's our microbiome? Right? That that was just 226 00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:07,719 Speaker 1: on how how completely made up. I think, like of 227 00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:11,520 Speaker 1: our cells are actually not ours. They're they're part of 228 00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:15,199 Speaker 1: the microbiome of bacteria that live on us and interact 229 00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:18,000 Speaker 1: with us. And that's what what you're doing when you're 230 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:21,480 Speaker 1: eating yogurt is bringing in some friends, some reinforcements to 231 00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 1: the good bacteria. That's the point of probiotics. Yeah, so 232 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:28,600 Speaker 1: in order to um we'll get into the health effects 233 00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:31,120 Speaker 1: here in a minute, but in order to get that 234 00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:36,200 Speaker 1: bacteria and have it survive through gastric acid, I mean 235 00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:40,520 Speaker 1: it's a it's a inhospitable environment down there in your 236 00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:43,560 Speaker 1: gut and in your intestines. Uh Well, first of all, 237 00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:45,800 Speaker 1: they do think that yogurt might be just a good 238 00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:49,720 Speaker 1: vehicle for that period because it's thick and goopy and 239 00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:52,520 Speaker 1: it acts like a buffer against that acid. But you 240 00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:56,040 Speaker 1: also have to have a lot of it because a 241 00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:58,400 Speaker 1: lot of it is going to die off. So there's 242 00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:02,800 Speaker 1: there are organizations that set minimum standards, and one of 243 00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:05,560 Speaker 1: them is the National Yogurt Association of the United States. 244 00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:08,560 Speaker 1: You don't want to mess with them, trust me, no 245 00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:11,200 Speaker 1: break your legs. It's just for even looking at them. 246 00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:17,560 Speaker 1: They're they're tough, tough individuals, they really are. Collectively. Uh So, 247 00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:21,040 Speaker 1: I believe the requirement is a hundred million bacteria per 248 00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:24,240 Speaker 1: gram uh, if you want to have that seal on it. 249 00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:26,240 Speaker 1: And this is if if you want to eat yogurt, 250 00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:28,160 Speaker 1: I mean, if you want to just go get a 251 00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:30,760 Speaker 1: stick a go gurt and shove it down your throat 252 00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:34,000 Speaker 1: and get a sugar rush, have at it. But if 253 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:38,160 Speaker 1: you actually want that live and active culture seal stamped 254 00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:40,760 Speaker 1: on your yogurt, uh, then you're gonna have to have 255 00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:44,600 Speaker 1: a hundred million bacteria per gram, right, and it has 256 00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:49,520 Speaker 1: to be specific bacteria to the FDA decreed in that 257 00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:52,520 Speaker 1: if you're going to sell something in the US as yogurt, 258 00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:58,680 Speaker 1: it has to contain Lactobacillus bulgaricus and strepp to Caucus thermophilis. 259 00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:01,480 Speaker 1: We'll talk a little more about those later, but you 260 00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:03,320 Speaker 1: have to have those, and then you have to have 261 00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:06,520 Speaker 1: them in amounts of at least a hundred million individual 262 00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:11,320 Speaker 1: bacterium of those strains per graham of yogurt or else. Buddy, 263 00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:16,400 Speaker 1: that ain't yogurt. That ain't yogurt. That ain't your mom's yogurt, 264 00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:20,520 Speaker 1: That aint your dad's yogurt. There's nobody's yogurt. Not as 265 00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:22,760 Speaker 1: far as the FDA is concerned. If you thought the 266 00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:27,720 Speaker 1: National Yogurt Association was tough, boy, howdy, the FDA will 267 00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:31,520 Speaker 1: mess you up. Uh. So you want to talk a 268 00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:35,600 Speaker 1: little bit about how they make yogurt, Yes, but first 269 00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:37,640 Speaker 1: get this. So you know you were talking about how 270 00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:42,440 Speaker 1: how yogurt or bacteria can Some can survive in the gut, 271 00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:45,520 Speaker 1: which can be inhospitable. I was like, how how did 272 00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:47,840 Speaker 1: they do that? Some are just coated in like a 273 00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:51,960 Speaker 1: polysach ride. That's fine, that's boring. But some bacteria actually 274 00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:56,480 Speaker 1: have pumps that are designed to pump acid out of 275 00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:59,600 Speaker 1: the bacteria. So when it's it's floating around in this 276 00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:03,280 Speaker 1: bath of stomach acid and juice and digestive end times, 277 00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:06,679 Speaker 1: it's just pumping it out and keeping just happy as 278 00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:10,160 Speaker 1: the lark. But it has like a mechanism for getting 279 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:13,840 Speaker 1: rid of the acid that that should otherwise kill it. 280 00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:17,639 Speaker 1: I just thought that was fascinating, man, life science. Iss? 281 00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:21,840 Speaker 1: What else? What's your other big one? Earth science or science? 282 00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:26,800 Speaker 1: Life science? Just science basically? Yeah, yeah, it all floats 283 00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:33,280 Speaker 1: my boat. What kind of science do you hate? M M? Psychology? No, 284 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:36,879 Speaker 1: I find it fascinating. Okay, I don't know, man, I 285 00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:42,000 Speaker 1: don't think I hate any science. Yeah, no, I don't 286 00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:46,720 Speaker 1: hate any science. See their kids, No sciences hate worthy. 287 00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:51,080 Speaker 1: Don't hate science and be like Josh Clark yourself some Josh, 288 00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:54,960 Speaker 1: we just spun my head right around. Do you see 289 00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:58,080 Speaker 1: that I did? That was strange. But it is October. 290 00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:02,159 Speaker 1: It is the month of exorcism. It's the Dancing Headstones 291 00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:08,359 Speaker 1: best season. What's the name of the van I can't remember, man, 292 00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:10,639 Speaker 1: we could have just buzz marketed that guy. So well, 293 00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:14,359 Speaker 1: all right, when you're making yogurt, like you said, it 294 00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:17,359 Speaker 1: was many many, many years ago. It was just this 295 00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:19,920 Speaker 1: curdled milk. And they were like, if you hold your 296 00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:23,399 Speaker 1: nose tight enough, you can still eat the stuff and 297 00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:26,719 Speaker 1: it doesn't really upset your stomach that much. But if 298 00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:29,280 Speaker 1: you're gonna manufacture yogurt, what you want to do is 299 00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:33,600 Speaker 1: separate the milk into the cream and the skim. And 300 00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:37,920 Speaker 1: this is automatically going to get a thicker texture going 301 00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:42,360 Speaker 1: because it's got a lot of fat and uh, it's evaporation. 302 00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:45,080 Speaker 1: It's evaporating some of the liquid anyway during this process. 303 00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:47,440 Speaker 1: But then they might say, you know what, let's add 304 00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:49,919 Speaker 1: some milk powder or some gelatine. We really need to 305 00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:53,480 Speaker 1: get this to the good yogurty consistent, uh consistency that 306 00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:57,399 Speaker 1: everybody loves. So now it's pretty thick at this point. 307 00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:02,280 Speaker 1: And then they pasteurize it, and we should do a 308 00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:09,159 Speaker 1: show on pasteurization and maybe even homogenization. Okay, maybe they 309 00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:13,000 Speaker 1: could go together, I think so, because homogenizing just basically 310 00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:18,040 Speaker 1: means stirring. Yeah, pasteurization, that's a there's a lot to that, 311 00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:20,440 Speaker 1: a lot of history and everything. But homogenized, I think 312 00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:23,840 Speaker 1: they've really church that up. It's just stirring something, yeah, 313 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:27,639 Speaker 1: to make it more homogeneous, right, it's pretty amazing. The 314 00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:30,920 Speaker 1: word fits perfectly, it really does. So these high high 315 00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:34,240 Speaker 1: temperatures that you get through pasteurization is going to help 316 00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:36,879 Speaker 1: make it even more thick. But you don't need to 317 00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:40,720 Speaker 1: like blasted at three hundred degrees for eight hours or whatever. No, 318 00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:43,080 Speaker 1: you don't want to do It's it's kind of amazing 319 00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:47,119 Speaker 1: actually that it only takes about fifteen seconds at a 320 00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:50,360 Speaker 1: hundred and seventy one degrees fahrenheit and that will kill 321 00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:53,320 Speaker 1: off the bacteria that you don't want there. So you 322 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:56,680 Speaker 1: know how both of our schedules are just insane right now. Yes, 323 00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:58,960 Speaker 1: I was starting to feel a little worn down. Sure, 324 00:19:59,119 --> 00:20:01,320 Speaker 1: it's just the tiny is tickle in my nose, and 325 00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:04,240 Speaker 1: I was like, no, I'm not having it. So I 326 00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:07,760 Speaker 1: busted out the old Nettie pot. Well, I got the 327 00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:14,920 Speaker 1: double purified tap water out of my water purifier, and 328 00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:19,560 Speaker 1: then I put it into a pot and boiled it 329 00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:23,040 Speaker 1: for five minutes and stuck the Nettie pot in and 330 00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:26,520 Speaker 1: left it in for another five minutes boiling. Then I 331 00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:30,240 Speaker 1: took that out, boiled more water for five minutes, and 332 00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:32,760 Speaker 1: then finally after it cooled, I put it through my 333 00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:35,480 Speaker 1: nose and I looked it up. I'm like, is that overkill? 334 00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:39,280 Speaker 1: Is it not enough? It is overkilled from what I saw. 335 00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:43,280 Speaker 1: What you really need is to once the water gets 336 00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:49,160 Speaker 1: to a boil, something like nine point nine of any 337 00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:53,679 Speaker 1: pathogen is dead. But the I think I can't remember 338 00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:57,359 Speaker 1: who recommends it. Maybe the CDC somebody recommends at least 339 00:20:57,440 --> 00:20:59,720 Speaker 1: letting it boil for a minute, just to be safe. 340 00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:03,560 Speaker 1: And then if you're above two thousand feet over sea level, 341 00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:06,000 Speaker 1: you want to boil it for three minutes because there's 342 00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:09,159 Speaker 1: a lower temperature required for boiling at higher altitudes. Right, 343 00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:11,800 Speaker 1: So really it's a boil it for a minute is 344 00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:14,639 Speaker 1: even overkill. But I'm gonna stick with my five minute 345 00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:17,719 Speaker 1: boiling thing. I still don't boil it at all. Dude, 346 00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:20,520 Speaker 1: do you know what would happen if you got just 347 00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:23,439 Speaker 1: the off chance of a brain eating amiba in there? No? 348 00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:27,200 Speaker 1: I know, But I also don't like get scared walking 349 00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:30,000 Speaker 1: around during a lightning storm. I don't either, and I 350 00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:34,879 Speaker 1: just feel like it's about is unlikely. Okay, all right, 351 00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:38,240 Speaker 1: well then promise me this. You will never netty pot 352 00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:42,280 Speaker 1: with water that you just got out of a stagnant creek. Okay, 353 00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:44,760 Speaker 1: all right? Is that a deal? At least, sure, But 354 00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:48,240 Speaker 1: can I still pour that into my open wounds? Okay, 355 00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:51,560 Speaker 1: just steer clear that water altogether, all right, fair enough? 356 00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:55,479 Speaker 1: All right? Uh? Alright. So at this point Josh has 357 00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:58,560 Speaker 1: boiled his water for twenty minutes, my milk, let it 358 00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:03,080 Speaker 1: cool for an hour, poured it through his nostril system. 359 00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:07,480 Speaker 1: So I make yogurt. Uh. Now, after they boil for 360 00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:12,960 Speaker 1: fifteen seconds or heat that milk up for fifteen seconds. Um, 361 00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:15,760 Speaker 1: you're you're it's it's. Your cream is separating at that 362 00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:18,800 Speaker 1: point just naturally from the milk because of the temperature. 363 00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:23,920 Speaker 1: That's when they stir it or homogenize the milk and 364 00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:27,240 Speaker 1: create that consistently consistency, because you don't want anything that 365 00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:32,600 Speaker 1: has a consistency of curdling, No, you don't. It's a homogenization. 366 00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:34,359 Speaker 1: Is just stirring it up, so you're breaking up the 367 00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:37,560 Speaker 1: flat of the fat globules so that they're spread evenly 368 00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:41,160 Speaker 1: throughout the milk, which it just means it's not lumpy milk. 369 00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:44,480 Speaker 1: It's smooth, textured milk. And the same thing I guess 370 00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:47,320 Speaker 1: that translates to the yogurt. It makes the yogurt smoother, 371 00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:54,920 Speaker 1: more consistently smooth, because it's homogenized milk that it's made from. Yes, okay, bam, homogenization. 372 00:22:54,920 --> 00:22:57,760 Speaker 1: We just did the homogenization episode. That could have been 373 00:22:57,760 --> 00:22:59,800 Speaker 1: a short stuff and we could have I don't even 374 00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:01,959 Speaker 1: know if I would have qualified for that. Well, we're 375 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:05,760 Speaker 1: gonna start releasing one called shortest stuff. It's just like 376 00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:10,639 Speaker 1: seconds more. That is our future. Uh so here's the 377 00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:13,080 Speaker 1: most important part. You think you're yogurt's done, but it's not, 378 00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:15,800 Speaker 1: because if you want it to be yogurt, you're gonna 379 00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:19,960 Speaker 1: have to pour some good bacteria back in there. And uh, 380 00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:22,679 Speaker 1: this is like it kind of depends on which company 381 00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:25,560 Speaker 1: work for what kind of yogurt they want, but they're 382 00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:29,880 Speaker 1: gonna select their bacteria accordingly dump it in there. Yes 383 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:32,919 Speaker 1: that I mean this is where the actual all you 384 00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:36,720 Speaker 1: have is hot milk up to this point, hot homogenized milk. 385 00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:40,560 Speaker 1: It's when you add that bacteria into this warm milk 386 00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:43,080 Speaker 1: that it starts to happen. And you want to let 387 00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:45,919 Speaker 1: them milk cool a little bit first, because you know 388 00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:48,600 Speaker 1: if it's too hot, it's going to if they're gonna die. 389 00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:50,840 Speaker 1: But when it cools to something like I think a 390 00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:54,560 Speaker 1: hundred and fifteen degrees fahrenheight or lower. Then you can 391 00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:57,639 Speaker 1: add your bacteria and they're going to start to go 392 00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:01,879 Speaker 1: to work. And all they're doing is basically fermenting the 393 00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:06,159 Speaker 1: milk into yogurt. That's it. Yeah, which is why if 394 00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:09,040 Speaker 1: you're lactose intolerant, you can still tolerate yogurt because that 395 00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:13,080 Speaker 1: bacteria gets in there, metabolizes that milk sugar, the lactose, 396 00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:18,959 Speaker 1: and and poops out lactic acid, and you can lactic 397 00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:21,680 Speaker 1: acid is fine on the body. Yes, So not only 398 00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:23,720 Speaker 1: this is just amazing, This is when I started to 399 00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:26,840 Speaker 1: get jazz by the yogurt. Not only does it break 400 00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:31,840 Speaker 1: down lactic or lactose into um other kinds of sugars 401 00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:35,439 Speaker 1: that are more digestible by the human body, that these 402 00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:39,360 Speaker 1: these bacteria actually deposit in your gut when you eat yogurt. 403 00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:43,119 Speaker 1: They deposit an enzyme that helps you break down the 404 00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:46,399 Speaker 1: lactose that is found in there, So they break it 405 00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:48,760 Speaker 1: down themselves, and then they help you break it down too, 406 00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:51,640 Speaker 1: which is why people who are lactose intolerant can still 407 00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:56,120 Speaker 1: usually eat yogurt unless you have a severe lactose allergy, 408 00:24:56,280 --> 00:25:00,320 Speaker 1: I think it's just intolerance. You can usually eat yogurt. Yeah, 409 00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:03,240 Speaker 1: And remember I talked about myself and my lactose intolerance 410 00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:06,440 Speaker 1: and like, is it am my lactose intolerant or should 411 00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:09,080 Speaker 1: I just not eat a pizza and a pint of 412 00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:15,520 Speaker 1: ice cream? Right? Uh? It turns out it's b is there? Right? Yeah? Man? 413 00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:17,800 Speaker 1: If I if I had a reasonable amount of cheese 414 00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:21,920 Speaker 1: and milk, I'm fine. Yeah, less farty lot less farty. Good. 415 00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:25,520 Speaker 1: The whole world is thanking you, buddy for coming to 416 00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:29,120 Speaker 1: that doing that experiment, or at least everyone in this room. 417 00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:33,480 Speaker 1: So so pretty amazing that that yogurt deposits an enzyme 418 00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:37,080 Speaker 1: that helps you break down lactose. Right, yeah, okay, it 419 00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:39,679 Speaker 1: gets even more amazing. One of the other things. One 420 00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:42,480 Speaker 1: of the reasons why why um people say you should 421 00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:45,680 Speaker 1: eat yogurt if you need protein is first of all, 422 00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:49,280 Speaker 1: it's from milk, so there's tons of protein. But secondly, 423 00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:53,000 Speaker 1: the um the acids or the bacteria, and they're actually 424 00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:56,480 Speaker 1: break down the protein so it becomes what's called more 425 00:25:56,680 --> 00:26:00,280 Speaker 1: um bioavailable. It's easier for your body to take again, 426 00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:03,719 Speaker 1: which normally your body doesn't have trouble absorbing protein anyway, 427 00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:06,960 Speaker 1: but if it does, yogurt, your your guy. But then 428 00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:11,600 Speaker 1: also it actually synthesizes some vitamins out of whole cloth. 429 00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:14,080 Speaker 1: Like there there may not be a lot of folate 430 00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:16,560 Speaker 1: found in milk, there's more of it found in yogurt 431 00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:21,399 Speaker 1: because these bacteria during fermentation produce folate, which is something 432 00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:23,880 Speaker 1: that you really want and need, especially if you're pregnant. 433 00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:27,600 Speaker 1: So there's there's just some amazing things going on during 434 00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:32,040 Speaker 1: the fermentation progress process from milk to yogurt that makes 435 00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:36,040 Speaker 1: it its own things. It's much more than just soured milk. 436 00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:39,760 Speaker 1: It's something. It's like a new thing. And the fact 437 00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:43,439 Speaker 1: that they found this accidentally from carrying sheep's milk around 438 00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:49,320 Speaker 1: in some animal skin or animals stomachs ten thousand years ago, 439 00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:53,399 Speaker 1: it's just makes it even more fascinating. Yea. And the 440 00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:56,560 Speaker 1: fact that you can add fruit on the bottom. It's 441 00:26:56,600 --> 00:27:00,320 Speaker 1: really the Americans love a gimmick, and I think that 442 00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:02,840 Speaker 1: was all about the gimmick. I'm sure then some boardroom 443 00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:06,280 Speaker 1: they were like, it's interactive, it's fun. Actually, I know 444 00:27:06,359 --> 00:27:09,399 Speaker 1: the story behind that. Interactive and fun it's probably the 445 00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:11,639 Speaker 1: words they used. It was it was actually it was 446 00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:16,560 Speaker 1: suggested in nineteen I think by a young guy named 447 00:27:16,640 --> 00:27:19,520 Speaker 1: Wan Metzker, whose dad was one of the co founders 448 00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:22,199 Speaker 1: of Dannon, and he was just a lowly bottle washer 449 00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:24,400 Speaker 1: at the time, but he suggested that as a way 450 00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:27,119 Speaker 1: to get Americans to eat it. But at the time, 451 00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:29,600 Speaker 1: the U. S d A said, you can't mix anything 452 00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:33,240 Speaker 1: with dairy products. It's against the law. But somehow Dannon 453 00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:35,960 Speaker 1: convinced the U. S d A that no, No, the 454 00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:38,640 Speaker 1: fruits on the bottom, so it's not really mixing. If 455 00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:40,040 Speaker 1: they put it on the top, the U. S t 456 00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:42,199 Speaker 1: A would have said that's mixing. If they had mixed it, 457 00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:45,280 Speaker 1: homogenized it, I guess they would have. They would have 458 00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:47,240 Speaker 1: considered that mixing. But the fact that it was on 459 00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:50,520 Speaker 1: the bottom that is why they got away with it. Somehow. 460 00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:53,320 Speaker 1: It doesn't make any sense to me. It's like the 461 00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:58,399 Speaker 1: Jeopardy being somehow different from the typical quiz show. You know, 462 00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:01,960 Speaker 1: it's the same thing. But they they US D d 463 00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:04,080 Speaker 1: A went along with it, and that's why it was 464 00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:07,479 Speaker 1: fruit on the bottom. Interesting, And there wasn't like some 465 00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:11,359 Speaker 1: senator from South Carolina and that said, you're counting on 466 00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:15,439 Speaker 1: the good people of America to mix their own fruit. 467 00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:20,920 Speaker 1: It's pretty good. That was supposed to be uh. It 468 00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:25,399 Speaker 1: sounded like Leonardo DiCaprio and Django and really did like 469 00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:29,760 Speaker 1: he was the senator man that movie that that whole 470 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:33,480 Speaker 1: sister subplot wasn't even a subplot. That was so strange 471 00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:39,040 Speaker 1: in that movie, which which remember Leo DiCaprio's like sister 472 00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:43,160 Speaker 1: arrived or whatever, and he was just like, where has 473 00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:46,200 Speaker 1: my beautiful sister? And it was just so over the 474 00:28:46,240 --> 00:28:50,240 Speaker 1: top and strange, and it was never explained like are 475 00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:53,600 Speaker 1: they lovers? Is it? Like? What's going on? Yeah? So weird. 476 00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:57,680 Speaker 1: I love Quentin Tarantino stuff, man, I love hate it. 477 00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:00,480 Speaker 1: Oh really, I don't hate any bit of it. I 478 00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:05,080 Speaker 1: love it. Oh. I think he's far too indulgent these days. 479 00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:09,959 Speaker 1: But you didn't like The Hateful Eight? Huh uh? You know, 480 00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:14,280 Speaker 1: I like the first four endings. Are you? Are you 481 00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:17,720 Speaker 1: looking forward to the Manson Family one he's doing. Yeah, 482 00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:20,040 Speaker 1: I mean I go, I go see all of them, 483 00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:23,920 Speaker 1: and I think they're all worthwhile. And there Tarantino movies, 484 00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:25,960 Speaker 1: so I kind of just put my tongue in my 485 00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:28,280 Speaker 1: cheek and laugh no matter what. But what was his 486 00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:31,840 Speaker 1: best one in your opinion? Oh? Well, I mean probably 487 00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:35,840 Speaker 1: Reservoir Dogs re pulp fiction. For me. Yeah, but so 488 00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:38,520 Speaker 1: don't get me wrong, I'm not a hater, but there's 489 00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:42,080 Speaker 1: clearly no one in his camp that's like, maybe edit 490 00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:46,800 Speaker 1: some down, maybe don't be in the movie. Hm, that'll 491 00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:48,880 Speaker 1: be the day, That'll be the day. Did you like 492 00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:52,800 Speaker 1: True Romance? Yeah? But he just wrote that. Yeah, but 493 00:29:52,880 --> 00:29:55,880 Speaker 1: it's obviously his work. Sure he didn't direct it. No, 494 00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:57,680 Speaker 1: I love it. That's one of my faves. That was 495 00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:01,600 Speaker 1: a good one. I mean, like, who cast Gary Oldmanton 496 00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:05,400 Speaker 1: for that? Scott? I guess that's just so bizarre, But 497 00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:07,800 Speaker 1: I think it was so cool. Sit down, have an 498 00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:12,360 Speaker 1: egg roll. It's a good movie. All right. So let's 499 00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:14,520 Speaker 1: take a break and we will get to the bottom 500 00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:18,720 Speaker 1: the fruit on the bottom, if you will, about nutrition 501 00:30:18,800 --> 00:30:21,520 Speaker 1: and how if that's real or not? Right after this, 502 00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:50,080 Speaker 1: all right, chuck yogurt nutrition or just delish? All right? 503 00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:54,280 Speaker 1: So here's the deal. Yogurt has really caught on in 504 00:30:54,320 --> 00:30:57,400 Speaker 1: the United States in the last like decade more than ever, 505 00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:02,560 Speaker 1: largely because it's being outed and sold as a health food. Dude. 506 00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:06,840 Speaker 1: There are studies that are coming in that says it 507 00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:12,320 Speaker 1: helps with everything from reducing obesity, type two diabetes, cardiovascular 508 00:31:12,360 --> 00:31:18,959 Speaker 1: disease of respiratory diseases, improves pregnancy outcomes, reduces allergies, um, 509 00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:24,080 Speaker 1: improves bone health and dental health, basically anything you can 510 00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:26,800 Speaker 1: think of. There's been a study that has found that. 511 00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:31,240 Speaker 1: But from what I'm gathering, either there's not enough studies, 512 00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:34,320 Speaker 1: which seems not the case to me, or that there 513 00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:38,560 Speaker 1: are other studies that are finding contradictory um evidence to 514 00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:42,800 Speaker 1: what the pro yogurt studies are finding. There doesn't seem 515 00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:44,840 Speaker 1: to be any study that's like, no, no, put the 516 00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:47,880 Speaker 1: ore down, it's gonna kill all of us, nothing like that. 517 00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:50,800 Speaker 1: But there's it just seems like the jury is still 518 00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:53,520 Speaker 1: out on whether it's actually beneficial to you or not, 519 00:31:53,640 --> 00:31:56,920 Speaker 1: at least over any kind of long term. Yeah, so 520 00:31:57,520 --> 00:31:59,920 Speaker 1: here's what we know for sure, I mean, just ingreedy 521 00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:04,120 Speaker 1: it wise. Um, especially if you're like tose intolerant, you 522 00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:07,600 Speaker 1: can get a lot of good calcium from yogurt um 523 00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:09,760 Speaker 1: that you wouldn't get if or that you would get 524 00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:12,080 Speaker 1: if you drink milk or whatever. But if you like 525 00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:18,720 Speaker 1: tose intolerant, you can get it through yogurt um. Vitamin D, protein, potassium, riboflavian, 526 00:32:19,160 --> 00:32:20,840 Speaker 1: these are all things that are in yogurt that we 527 00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:23,840 Speaker 1: know we're good for you, but it's these it's like 528 00:32:24,080 --> 00:32:27,719 Speaker 1: health claims that they're selling people now, which was what 529 00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:31,280 Speaker 1: we're really talking about here. Uh. Like you said, like 530 00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:34,600 Speaker 1: will it actually help you lose weight? And there have 531 00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:39,960 Speaker 1: been some studies that indicate that it could, but it's uh, 532 00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:42,080 Speaker 1: there are a lot of like caveats attached. It feels 533 00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:46,320 Speaker 1: like like the International Journal of Obesity says that low 534 00:32:46,320 --> 00:32:49,880 Speaker 1: fat yogurt could help you lose weight. Uh, but it's 535 00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:53,800 Speaker 1: kind of like that's because you're replacing a meal with 536 00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:58,440 Speaker 1: some yogurt as a substitution or for a snack, and 537 00:32:58,520 --> 00:33:01,680 Speaker 1: it's kind of filling, you're gonna be eating less and 538 00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:03,880 Speaker 1: all these things are kind of true, but it's a 539 00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:07,640 Speaker 1: little misleading, it is. And actually you also want to 540 00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:10,480 Speaker 1: be careful, Like, Okay, if you're on a diet and 541 00:33:10,560 --> 00:33:14,600 Speaker 1: you're using low fat yogurt to diet with, but you're 542 00:33:14,600 --> 00:33:17,280 Speaker 1: health conscious, you want to be careful because a lot 543 00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:21,520 Speaker 1: of the low fat or no fat um yogurts replace 544 00:33:21,640 --> 00:33:24,960 Speaker 1: the fat with other stuff like artificial sweeteners like aspartame 545 00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:27,880 Speaker 1: and sacharin. There's usually a lot of sodium in there 546 00:33:27,920 --> 00:33:30,440 Speaker 1: to try to replace some of the flavor that's lost 547 00:33:30,480 --> 00:33:33,480 Speaker 1: when you take all the fat out. So there's there's 548 00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:35,920 Speaker 1: a lot of push and pull, and yeah, it does 549 00:33:35,960 --> 00:33:39,560 Speaker 1: seem to be where if you are already healthy and 550 00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:44,360 Speaker 1: you eat yogurt regularly but a lot, then maybe you'll 551 00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:47,440 Speaker 1: start to see some actual health effects. But there's never 552 00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:51,200 Speaker 1: been a study that showed, yes, yogurt is such a 553 00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:57,240 Speaker 1: powerhouse that it can knock out rheumatoid arthritis. And those 554 00:33:57,280 --> 00:33:59,840 Speaker 1: are kind of the claims that people are making, and 555 00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:02,720 Speaker 1: there's like some there's some basis, there's some kernel of 556 00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:04,880 Speaker 1: truth to it. Like one of the big things now 557 00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:08,920 Speaker 1: with dieting is um or not not dieting, but eating 558 00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:11,759 Speaker 1: eating right or eating healthy, I guess whatever you want 559 00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:15,040 Speaker 1: to call it, is this idea that when you eat, 560 00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:18,000 Speaker 1: your body becomes inflamed as part of the immune response, 561 00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:19,480 Speaker 1: like what did you just seet? What is that? What 562 00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:22,600 Speaker 1: is that? And it goes into kind of like defense 563 00:34:22,719 --> 00:34:25,680 Speaker 1: mode to sort things out. Well, the idea is that 564 00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:28,280 Speaker 1: over time, if you're if you're eating stuff that sets 565 00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:32,719 Speaker 1: off your immune response, your inflammatory response pretty much constantly, 566 00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:35,279 Speaker 1: that is a terrible effect on your body and can 567 00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:40,360 Speaker 1: manifest itself in things like inflammatory diseases like rheumatoid arthritis. 568 00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:43,840 Speaker 1: So the logic is, and they've shown that, yes, yogurt 569 00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:49,839 Speaker 1: can actually possibly maybe reduce your inflammatory response. So it's 570 00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:53,560 Speaker 1: going from yogurt might be able to lessen your inflammatory 571 00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:58,040 Speaker 1: response to some really really bad food, to yogurt can 572 00:34:58,080 --> 00:35:02,400 Speaker 1: cure rheumatoid arthritis, and that it's the problem. Yeah, especially 573 00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:04,480 Speaker 1: in women. Uh, it seems to have a little bit 574 00:35:04,480 --> 00:35:07,960 Speaker 1: better chance at reducing inflammation. They did this one study 575 00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:15,520 Speaker 1: at the University of Wisconsin. Madison, go Badgers, right, Wolverines. Boy, 576 00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:17,440 Speaker 1: I think it's got to be Badgers, right, it is 577 00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:20,319 Speaker 1: the Badgers. I'm just giving him a hard time. I 578 00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:23,560 Speaker 1: didn't know if there was Yeah, that's Madison, of course. Uh, 579 00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:25,680 Speaker 1: we need to do a show there by the way 580 00:35:26,239 --> 00:35:29,320 Speaker 1: we do, or we could just make everybody drive to Milwaukee. 581 00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:31,920 Speaker 1: It's an hour away. I did like Milwaukee. That was 582 00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:34,799 Speaker 1: a great show. That was That was cool town. So 583 00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:37,919 Speaker 1: they did a study where they had sixty women, um, 584 00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:41,359 Speaker 1: half of whom were obese, and they had them eat 585 00:35:41,400 --> 00:35:44,640 Speaker 1: twelve ounces of low fat yogurt every day for nine 586 00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:48,080 Speaker 1: weeks than a control group. Of course, uh, with eating 587 00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:52,440 Speaker 1: uh non dairy pudding. So they have, which is like, what, 588 00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:56,480 Speaker 1: what is that like snack packs? I don't know. Um. 589 00:35:56,600 --> 00:36:00,480 Speaker 1: And they measured levels of proteins uh it says, excreted 590 00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:02,680 Speaker 1: by immune cells to determine how much inflammation was in 591 00:36:02,719 --> 00:36:06,400 Speaker 1: their body. So they're they're trying to measure the imflament 592 00:36:06,520 --> 00:36:10,360 Speaker 1: inflammatory response that you're talking about. And they did find 593 00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:14,360 Speaker 1: that the yogurt yogurt ladies as I like to be called, 594 00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:20,439 Speaker 1: saw improvements and some markers of inflammation. But again that's 595 00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:24,319 Speaker 1: that's a long way from saying it can help your 596 00:36:24,400 --> 00:36:28,160 Speaker 1: rheumatoid arthritis. That's part of the problem. I think people 597 00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:31,240 Speaker 1: just want it. It's just such a great idea, this, 598 00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:33,879 Speaker 1: this natural thing that's been with humanity since the dawn 599 00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:37,680 Speaker 1: of civilization can actually help help cure some of these 600 00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:40,360 Speaker 1: modern ailments from our modern world. People want that to 601 00:36:40,440 --> 00:36:43,480 Speaker 1: be the truth so bad. I don't see anything wrong 602 00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:47,240 Speaker 1: with that, but it's it's it's not necessarily the case. 603 00:36:47,320 --> 00:36:50,120 Speaker 1: I think, yes, And it was also this study was 604 00:36:50,160 --> 00:36:55,000 Speaker 1: funded by the National Dairy Council UM. And again the 605 00:36:55,040 --> 00:36:58,359 Speaker 1: guy uh that the doctor who performed it, of course, 606 00:36:58,400 --> 00:37:01,080 Speaker 1: he was like, it doesn't to where the money came from. 607 00:37:01,239 --> 00:37:04,120 Speaker 1: The same conclusion, so you know you can take him 608 00:37:04,120 --> 00:37:06,520 Speaker 1: at his word. I guess I'm not saying he's like 609 00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:10,200 Speaker 1: in the pocket of big Dairy, right, but which we laugh. 610 00:37:10,280 --> 00:37:13,799 Speaker 1: But I'm sure that's the thing. Well, the Yogurt Association, 611 00:37:13,840 --> 00:37:17,040 Speaker 1: they're the front there, the they're the the leg breakers 612 00:37:17,080 --> 00:37:20,760 Speaker 1: for the dairy Association. Uh. But like I said earlier, 613 00:37:20,800 --> 00:37:23,600 Speaker 1: because there's a lot of protein and yogurt, it will 614 00:37:23,680 --> 00:37:27,080 Speaker 1: make you feel more full and you might have fewer 615 00:37:27,160 --> 00:37:31,160 Speaker 1: unhealthy snacks. So it's one of those you know things 616 00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:34,040 Speaker 1: like is it really making that difference or it is 617 00:37:34,040 --> 00:37:38,040 Speaker 1: just causing you to change patterns, right, which is fine? Yeah, 618 00:37:38,840 --> 00:37:42,320 Speaker 1: oh yeah. Again, there's nobody who's saying no, eating yogurt's 619 00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:44,200 Speaker 1: bad for you. You do want to watch it if 620 00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:47,840 Speaker 1: you are trying to lose weight. Um, eating full fat yogurt, 621 00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:50,920 Speaker 1: too much full fat yogurt, especially if you're eating it 622 00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:53,759 Speaker 1: in addition to other stuff rather than using it to 623 00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:58,239 Speaker 1: replace something you can gain weight. Um. The I think 624 00:37:58,239 --> 00:38:01,839 Speaker 1: the average weight game in that one study you were 625 00:38:01,840 --> 00:38:06,000 Speaker 1: talking about from both the yogurt and the putting cohorts 626 00:38:06,120 --> 00:38:11,000 Speaker 1: was like a kilogram I think, yeah, a couple of pounds. Yeah, 627 00:38:11,520 --> 00:38:14,000 Speaker 1: over like nine weeks or something like that. So that's 628 00:38:14,040 --> 00:38:16,640 Speaker 1: that's a significant amount of weightking But they were eating 629 00:38:16,680 --> 00:38:20,080 Speaker 1: like twelve ounces. It's two full servings of yogurt every day. 630 00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:22,160 Speaker 1: That's a lot of yogurt. I mean, it's a lot. 631 00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:24,560 Speaker 1: I like yogurt, but it's not the kind of food 632 00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:27,600 Speaker 1: you sit down and eat a bowl of, you know, no, no, 633 00:38:27,880 --> 00:38:31,680 Speaker 1: you definitely you wanted in its own little amount. It's 634 00:38:31,760 --> 00:38:34,480 Speaker 1: it's like a grape nuts bowl, you know. Yeah. And 635 00:38:34,520 --> 00:38:37,319 Speaker 1: for parents, you know, gogurt. Not to pick on them, 636 00:38:37,360 --> 00:38:39,680 Speaker 1: but they definitely market that. I used to do. I 637 00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:41,640 Speaker 1: did a couple of yogurt commercials back in the day 638 00:38:41,640 --> 00:38:45,600 Speaker 1: as a p A and uh, you know, they definitely 639 00:38:45,600 --> 00:38:48,279 Speaker 1: mark it towards kids. It's packaged in a little kid 640 00:38:48,320 --> 00:38:52,359 Speaker 1: friendly fun way to eat um. And we're not saying 641 00:38:52,400 --> 00:38:54,960 Speaker 1: yogurt it's bad for kids, but that stuff is loaded 642 00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:58,719 Speaker 1: with sugar and calories from sugar. Yeah, So just know 643 00:38:58,880 --> 00:39:01,839 Speaker 1: that going in from what I understand, the closest thing 644 00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:03,840 Speaker 1: to actual yogurt that you can get in the United 645 00:39:03,880 --> 00:39:07,319 Speaker 1: States is something like Greek yogurt. That's only kind of 646 00:39:07,360 --> 00:39:10,080 Speaker 1: eat I think it tastes best. It is. It's fantastic, 647 00:39:10,120 --> 00:39:11,840 Speaker 1: like playing Greek yogurt and then you just add a 648 00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:13,840 Speaker 1: little honey. Don't forget the honey, Chuck, I know, I 649 00:39:13,880 --> 00:39:17,640 Speaker 1: gotta I gotta call my beekeeper. There's also something called 650 00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:22,439 Speaker 1: there's traditional Bulgarian yogurt. Bulgaria is very well known for 651 00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:27,920 Speaker 1: its yogurt love. They have something called cassello milako, which 652 00:39:28,200 --> 00:39:31,680 Speaker 1: means soured milk. And I just think of Balky Bartakamos 653 00:39:31,719 --> 00:39:36,200 Speaker 1: saying it is that his last name? Yeah? From Perfect Strangers? 654 00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:40,400 Speaker 1: What was it, Balky bar Takamos, bartak a moose Bartakamos. 655 00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:42,839 Speaker 1: I don't think I ever heard that. Yeah, I didn't 656 00:39:42,840 --> 00:39:46,600 Speaker 1: watch that show though, Oh you were missing out the 657 00:39:46,640 --> 00:39:50,160 Speaker 1: episode where they were moving a piano up up like 658 00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:53,399 Speaker 1: a couple of flights of stairs. Yes, it was Chuck, 659 00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:55,040 Speaker 1: and I am. I would put my money on this. 660 00:39:55,560 --> 00:39:58,640 Speaker 1: It is one of the greatest examples of physical comedy 661 00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:01,600 Speaker 1: in television history. I mean, that's an old thing. Like 662 00:40:01,640 --> 00:40:04,719 Speaker 1: Friends had an episode of moving a couch upstairs. These 663 00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:09,480 Speaker 1: guys make Friends look like piles of walking poop. That's 664 00:40:09,480 --> 00:40:13,560 Speaker 1: how good. That's how good this Perfect Strangers episode was. 665 00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:16,319 Speaker 1: Like Friends doesn't even want to talk about it, oh man, 666 00:40:18,719 --> 00:40:21,360 Speaker 1: But I mean that's a classic bit like the March 667 00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:25,759 Speaker 1: Brothers are you know probably or Buster Keaton probably first 668 00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:27,560 Speaker 1: came up with it. Yeah, he moved to piano or 669 00:40:27,560 --> 00:40:31,400 Speaker 1: two in his day. You want to talk about the 670 00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:36,120 Speaker 1: in Soviet Georgia um Yogurt campaign real quick? Yeah, I 671 00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:38,080 Speaker 1: actually did not get to see that, so you can 672 00:40:38,080 --> 00:40:43,360 Speaker 1: teach me. Okay. So in ninety seven Dannon, who really 673 00:40:43,440 --> 00:40:46,839 Speaker 1: is almost single handedly responsible for bringing yogurt and making 674 00:40:46,840 --> 00:40:50,239 Speaker 1: it popular in America in the seventies, they came out 675 00:40:50,239 --> 00:40:53,040 Speaker 1: with an ad campaign called in Soviet Georgia where they 676 00:40:53,080 --> 00:40:56,759 Speaker 1: went to Georgia, one of the Soviet Union's republics at 677 00:40:56,760 --> 00:41:00,600 Speaker 1: the time, and found like a hundred US year old 678 00:41:00,640 --> 00:41:04,520 Speaker 1: people who were still vital and active and said, hey, 679 00:41:04,560 --> 00:41:08,320 Speaker 1: can we film you like bailing hey, and then afterward 680 00:41:08,680 --> 00:41:10,840 Speaker 1: you'll eat like a nice cup of dan and yogurt 681 00:41:11,040 --> 00:41:13,200 Speaker 1: and people will say, hey, that's great. I want to 682 00:41:13,560 --> 00:41:16,040 Speaker 1: be bailing hey at a hundred and five like this person. 683 00:41:16,480 --> 00:41:18,640 Speaker 1: And it was kind of risky at the time because 684 00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:22,360 Speaker 1: this is the Cold War the late seventies, the Soviet 685 00:41:22,440 --> 00:41:25,239 Speaker 1: Union in the United States were not friends. But to 686 00:41:25,400 --> 00:41:28,600 Speaker 1: advertise to the United States, they sent their add people 687 00:41:28,680 --> 00:41:31,560 Speaker 1: to the Soviet Union and it just went off. It 688 00:41:31,640 --> 00:41:35,319 Speaker 1: was total hit. Like dan In, their sales were in 689 00:41:35,360 --> 00:41:37,839 Speaker 1: the gutter and all of a sudden there's just back 690 00:41:37,880 --> 00:41:41,120 Speaker 1: on top. And it's actually credited with kicking off this 691 00:41:41,800 --> 00:41:45,040 Speaker 1: what we think of now is like normal. But the 692 00:41:45,160 --> 00:41:48,719 Speaker 1: yogurt craze that started in late seventies early eighties and 693 00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:50,920 Speaker 1: continued on and it's finally gotten to the point where 694 00:41:50,960 --> 00:41:53,600 Speaker 1: we're actually starting to eat healthy yogurt. That was that 695 00:41:53,680 --> 00:41:59,080 Speaker 1: commercial in Soviet Georgia. Crazy, Yeah, it's crazy. They found 696 00:41:59,120 --> 00:42:01,520 Speaker 1: one guy who was eighty nine and they said his 697 00:42:01,600 --> 00:42:04,200 Speaker 1: mother was a hundred and fourteen, and they filmed them 698 00:42:04,200 --> 00:42:06,239 Speaker 1: in one of the commercials and they said he he 699 00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:09,000 Speaker 1: ate two cups and it made his mother very proud, 700 00:42:09,239 --> 00:42:12,160 Speaker 1: but he's eighty nine. That was the big joke. D 701 00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:16,000 Speaker 1: and fourteen man. Yeah, all for meeting yogurt. I need 702 00:42:16,040 --> 00:42:19,120 Speaker 1: to get on it. You got anything else? If I 703 00:42:19,120 --> 00:42:21,360 Speaker 1: want to live to be a hundred and fourteen, you 704 00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:23,920 Speaker 1: gotta start eating some yogurt and don't forget the honey. 705 00:42:24,239 --> 00:42:28,359 Speaker 1: Could you imagine me at a hundred and fourteen? Yeah, 706 00:42:28,440 --> 00:42:30,880 Speaker 1: actually I can now that you mentioned it. Nobody wants that. 707 00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:33,480 Speaker 1: I could totally see you'd be like, I'm back to 708 00:42:33,680 --> 00:42:36,160 Speaker 1: the whole pizza and the whole thing ice cream thing. 709 00:42:36,600 --> 00:42:40,279 Speaker 1: You might want to stand back. Wow, this one had 710 00:42:40,280 --> 00:42:44,279 Speaker 1: a lot of fart and poop jokes. Yeah, well that happens. Well, 711 00:42:44,320 --> 00:42:46,520 Speaker 1: if you want to know more about yogurt, go eat 712 00:42:46,560 --> 00:42:49,160 Speaker 1: some yogurt, Eat the good stuff, learn to love it, 713 00:42:49,280 --> 00:42:52,040 Speaker 1: and your stomach will be happy, whether science can prove 714 00:42:52,080 --> 00:42:54,560 Speaker 1: that it is or not. And since I said that, 715 00:42:54,600 --> 00:42:59,200 Speaker 1: it's time for a listener Mayo, all right, I'm gonna 716 00:42:59,239 --> 00:43:03,759 Speaker 1: call this self fest medievalist. This guy Stephen Gray wrote 717 00:43:03,760 --> 00:43:07,520 Speaker 1: in and he's from Melbourne, Australia but living in London now, 718 00:43:08,320 --> 00:43:11,520 Speaker 1: and he says, I'm writing for some extra info, to 719 00:43:11,560 --> 00:43:14,799 Speaker 1: give you extra info for the robin Hood episode. First 720 00:43:14,800 --> 00:43:20,040 Speaker 1: of all, Josh talks about uh Rich slash Johnny Sitch 721 00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:24,040 Speaker 1: and says that Richard was King of England for two 722 00:43:24,120 --> 00:43:26,600 Speaker 1: years and that john was the natural heir. Richie was 723 00:43:26,640 --> 00:43:29,960 Speaker 1: actually king for ten years, but spent only six months 724 00:43:29,960 --> 00:43:32,239 Speaker 1: of his reign in England while he was off on 725 00:43:32,320 --> 00:43:36,439 Speaker 1: the Third Crusade. He left his chancellor William of long 726 00:43:36,560 --> 00:43:39,520 Speaker 1: Champ as regent but his brother John was cranky about 727 00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:42,040 Speaker 1: it and schemed against him and citing a rebellion. When 728 00:43:42,120 --> 00:43:45,120 Speaker 1: rich eventually got back, he forgave Johnny named him heir 729 00:43:45,200 --> 00:43:48,000 Speaker 1: to the throne. So the bad King John good King 730 00:43:48,080 --> 00:43:52,240 Speaker 1: Richard bit of the R. H. Cannon is actually based 731 00:43:52,280 --> 00:43:57,080 Speaker 1: in fact. Perhaps more interesting, he says, I set up 732 00:43:57,080 --> 00:43:59,960 Speaker 1: by the way, when the robin Hood story started come 733 00:44:00,040 --> 00:44:02,160 Speaker 1: out during the reign of Henry the Third is during 734 00:44:02,160 --> 00:44:05,200 Speaker 1: a period where Henry was waging war for his lands 735 00:44:05,200 --> 00:44:08,200 Speaker 1: and Gascony France. Henry was not a very strong willed 736 00:44:08,239 --> 00:44:10,759 Speaker 1: or charismatic king, so he didn't get along super well 737 00:44:10,760 --> 00:44:13,160 Speaker 1: with his nobles, and as a result, to raise funds 738 00:44:13,160 --> 00:44:14,880 Speaker 1: for the war effort, he had to rely more heavily 739 00:44:15,360 --> 00:44:20,120 Speaker 1: on his foresters and sheriffs to raise some mega taxes. 740 00:44:20,760 --> 00:44:24,040 Speaker 1: So the robin Hood stories pitt our hero against these 741 00:44:24,360 --> 00:44:28,400 Speaker 1: uh extortionate representatives of a nasty, villainous king. But of 742 00:44:28,440 --> 00:44:32,680 Speaker 1: course you can't directly suggest that's the current king, so 743 00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:34,400 Speaker 1: you have to be not so subtle and point to 744 00:44:34,400 --> 00:44:37,759 Speaker 1: a recent but previous scenario which everyone will draw the 745 00:44:37,800 --> 00:44:42,799 Speaker 1: parallels from. Wow, this guy is not just a self proclaimedievalist. 746 00:44:43,040 --> 00:44:46,840 Speaker 1: I officially confirm him as a medievalist. He says, hopes 747 00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:50,520 Speaker 1: this helps. Uh, hope this solves your insatiable appetite to 748 00:44:50,560 --> 00:44:54,920 Speaker 1: keep learning as your podcast as mine.
