Those dudes that be 16 00:01:08,645 --> 00:01:11,205 Speaker 1: playing their instruments all the time, that's where that's where 17 00:01:11,245 --> 00:01:13,965 Speaker 1: we'll get you. Yeah, I bet. Luckily, I don't think 18 00:01:14,005 --> 00:01:16,205 Speaker 1: it's going to be a guitar or ukulele, so I 19 00:01:16,245 --> 00:01:19,325 Speaker 1: think at least we can be happy about that. So 20 00:01:19,365 --> 00:01:37,725 Speaker 1: this is cadaver gals and cue the musical, Oh cadaver gals. 21 00:01:37,845 --> 00:01:42,045 Speaker 1: Here we are just being having fun and I want 22 00:01:42,085 --> 00:01:44,245 Speaker 1: you guys to really get ready for this story that 23 00:01:44,365 --> 00:01:46,845 Speaker 1: Nika is about to tell, because I looked at it 24 00:01:46,885 --> 00:01:49,045 Speaker 1: a little bit too, and I was like, oh no, 25 00:01:49,645 --> 00:01:54,005 Speaker 1: oh no, oh no oh no, it's correct, Nika. What 26 00:01:54,045 --> 00:01:59,845 Speaker 1: are you talking about today? Well, I need to tell 27 00:01:59,925 --> 00:02:02,765 Speaker 1: you guys, I need to confess. Let's get catholic here, 28 00:02:02,965 --> 00:02:06,685 Speaker 1: m I need to confess about something. I call me daddy, 29 00:02:06,885 --> 00:02:13,485 Speaker 1: preest daddy. Okay. I have a personal I don't want 30 00:02:13,485 --> 00:02:15,565 Speaker 1: to call it a phobia because I don't think I should, 31 00:02:15,685 --> 00:02:18,805 Speaker 1: you know, label myself, but it is a big fear 32 00:02:19,485 --> 00:02:22,805 Speaker 1: of rodents. I really do not like them. In fact, 33 00:02:22,925 --> 00:02:26,005 Speaker 1: Gabby has band merch and the Bend merch is like 34 00:02:26,005 --> 00:02:28,445 Speaker 1: a white tea that says the future is full of rats. 35 00:02:28,605 --> 00:02:30,405 Speaker 1: And I don't know why I bought that shirt from 36 00:02:30,445 --> 00:02:34,125 Speaker 1: Gabby because an ideal future for me is one without rats, 37 00:02:34,205 --> 00:02:36,925 Speaker 1: like I would rather never see one ever in my lifetime. 38 00:02:37,285 --> 00:02:39,245 Speaker 1: I think that's just because you're a good friend. So 39 00:02:39,285 --> 00:02:43,125 Speaker 1: I thank you for purchasing a shirt. Taylor didn't buy one. 40 00:02:43,285 --> 00:02:46,565 Speaker 1: I didn't, but I didn't, Taylor, you know I missed out. 41 00:02:46,605 --> 00:02:48,565 Speaker 1: I want one, though, Can I still get one to 42 00:02:48,725 --> 00:02:52,605 Speaker 1: light to late you? You and all the listeners can 43 00:02:52,725 --> 00:02:59,005 Speaker 1: visit my website and now, yeah, but Taylor, you can't know. Okay, great, okay, anyway, Well, 44 00:02:59,245 --> 00:03:01,605 Speaker 1: but Mika, I will say that's a pretty I would 45 00:03:01,605 --> 00:03:04,685 Speaker 1: say that's a pretty fair fear. It's a natural it's 46 00:03:04,685 --> 00:03:08,885 Speaker 1: a natural fear. Yeah, anything that scurries like that. I'm 47 00:03:08,925 --> 00:03:12,805 Speaker 1: just super uncomfortable with squirrels. It's like, you know what, Okay, 48 00:03:12,845 --> 00:03:15,645 Speaker 1: you're a little fluffier, but if have you ever really 49 00:03:15,645 --> 00:03:18,045 Speaker 1: looked at a squirrel? Those be looking kind of rat 50 00:03:18,085 --> 00:03:21,525 Speaker 1: like anyway they are, but also like rats can transmit 51 00:03:21,685 --> 00:03:24,365 Speaker 1: diseases and stuff that is kind of that. I feel 52 00:03:24,405 --> 00:03:27,165 Speaker 1: like that's the inherent fear because otherwise, yeah, we'd be 53 00:03:27,165 --> 00:03:29,445 Speaker 1: like fine with them as like, oh, I don't as 54 00:03:29,485 --> 00:03:32,325 Speaker 1: much as we are a squirrel or rat tails? No, no, 55 00:03:32,445 --> 00:03:35,645 Speaker 1: have you seen their behinds? Yeah? It's gross, it is 56 00:03:35,685 --> 00:03:40,645 Speaker 1: gross anyway. Um, all that to say. In Cadavergals, I 57 00:03:40,645 --> 00:03:43,525 Speaker 1: feel like we make it a point to directly face 58 00:03:43,565 --> 00:03:46,685 Speaker 1: our own traumas. Like one time when we were recording 59 00:03:46,725 --> 00:03:49,685 Speaker 1: at the beach, and Taylor started crying during a recording 60 00:03:49,725 --> 00:03:52,765 Speaker 1: session because trauma was brought up. So I figured, hey, 61 00:03:52,965 --> 00:03:55,805 Speaker 1: let's do some research on rat torture deaths because like 62 00:03:56,045 --> 00:04:01,245 Speaker 1: you cry, okay, bitch anyway, well y'all you cry hard, Okay, 63 00:04:01,405 --> 00:04:03,645 Speaker 1: your memories made you cry. We just brought them up. 64 00:04:03,845 --> 00:04:07,005 Speaker 1: Let's be real. Let's be real. Here's getting stressed out 65 00:04:07,005 --> 00:04:11,365 Speaker 1: of here? Is that gaslighting, Nika, what you're doing? Never, 66 00:04:12,725 --> 00:04:18,005 Speaker 1: I would never Okay, listen, So rat torture sounds ungure, yes, 67 00:04:18,645 --> 00:04:23,125 Speaker 1: So it seems like the term rat torture actually didn't 68 00:04:23,165 --> 00:04:27,525 Speaker 1: become popularized. And I say popularized because everyone's talking about 69 00:04:27,525 --> 00:04:32,885 Speaker 1: it clearly. But basically, writers during the Elizabethan era in 70 00:04:33,245 --> 00:04:35,485 Speaker 1: London kind of caught wind that this weird thing was 71 00:04:35,525 --> 00:04:39,365 Speaker 1: happening where an underground chamber in the Tower of London 72 00:04:39,725 --> 00:04:43,845 Speaker 1: would constantly flood because of the Thames River. Now this 73 00:04:44,485 --> 00:04:47,565 Speaker 1: not exciting because people were there, first of all. Second 74 00:04:47,565 --> 00:04:51,965 Speaker 1: of all, rats would pour into the chamber because the 75 00:04:52,045 --> 00:04:55,365 Speaker 1: river would flood, and many prisoners were kept there, and 76 00:04:55,445 --> 00:04:58,805 Speaker 1: so the rats would be like where am I? You know, 77 00:04:59,445 --> 00:05:02,245 Speaker 1: crazy night, wild night. I woke up hungover and would 78 00:05:02,285 --> 00:05:06,965 Speaker 1: pick at the prisoner's bodies, and um, basically that was 79 00:05:07,005 --> 00:05:09,245 Speaker 1: a big scandalous thing that was happening. The writers wouldn't 80 00:05:09,245 --> 00:05:11,685 Speaker 1: shut up about it. So if you look up like 81 00:05:11,765 --> 00:05:14,925 Speaker 1: rat torture, people think that's where it originated. That's actually 82 00:05:14,925 --> 00:05:19,645 Speaker 1: just where it was like officially recorded. There is, however, 83 00:05:20,205 --> 00:05:26,285 Speaker 1: evidence that we're taking things back to ancient Rome. Emperor Nero. Yes, 84 00:05:26,405 --> 00:05:29,645 Speaker 1: he had a little, a little kink. He loved to 85 00:05:30,405 --> 00:05:35,845 Speaker 1: put people in barrels and then put hungry rats inside 86 00:05:35,845 --> 00:05:40,365 Speaker 1: of said barrels, and um, question like prisoners or use 87 00:05:40,405 --> 00:05:43,165 Speaker 1: it as like a method of justice, and then the 88 00:05:43,245 --> 00:05:47,205 Speaker 1: rats would basically consume the prisoners. That is so rude. 89 00:05:47,445 --> 00:05:50,885 Speaker 1: That's a that's such a cool kink. I'm really glad 90 00:05:50,925 --> 00:05:53,725 Speaker 1: he was into that. I know, right, that's cool. Nero 91 00:05:53,925 --> 00:05:57,525 Speaker 1: was a funny man anyway, So that's kind of like 92 00:05:57,565 --> 00:06:01,525 Speaker 1: where it originated. And then it got you know, real 93 00:06:01,565 --> 00:06:04,085 Speaker 1: popular in London because that would happen in the Tower 94 00:06:04,085 --> 00:06:10,165 Speaker 1: of London. And then I found the like godfather, big 95 00:06:10,245 --> 00:06:16,285 Speaker 1: daddy patron saint of torture, and his name was diedrich Sonoy. 96 00:06:16,325 --> 00:06:22,685 Speaker 1: Now this man he loved torturing people and he was 97 00:06:22,725 --> 00:06:26,765 Speaker 1: actually one of the leaders during the Dutch Revolt, which 98 00:06:27,205 --> 00:06:30,165 Speaker 1: it started in fifteen sixty six. And basically what happened 99 00:06:30,205 --> 00:06:32,965 Speaker 1: in the Dutch Revolt is this king from Spain had 100 00:06:33,005 --> 00:06:37,445 Speaker 1: inherited the Lowlands, which basically consisted of the Netherlands, parts 101 00:06:37,445 --> 00:06:40,925 Speaker 1: of France and Germany and I think Luxembourg and Belgium. 102 00:06:41,365 --> 00:06:44,965 Speaker 1: And these Dutch Protestants that lived in the Lowlands were like, 103 00:06:45,125 --> 00:06:49,405 Speaker 1: we're not having it. This is too much cultural change, 104 00:06:49,445 --> 00:06:51,725 Speaker 1: you know. The Catholics like, I can't do that. I'm 105 00:06:51,725 --> 00:06:54,885 Speaker 1: so sorry, and so they began a resistance led by 106 00:06:54,885 --> 00:07:01,485 Speaker 1: this guy called William the Silent, which okay, and all right, 107 00:07:01,605 --> 00:07:04,485 Speaker 1: that's your name. That's good. That would never be my nickname. 108 00:07:04,525 --> 00:07:08,205 Speaker 1: Can you imagine and feel like Nika the talkative, Nika, 109 00:07:08,245 --> 00:07:14,085 Speaker 1: the pretty Nika? Okay, anyway, sorry, So William the Silent 110 00:07:14,165 --> 00:07:17,365 Speaker 1: had this buddy, and that buddy was Diedrick's annoy And 111 00:07:17,685 --> 00:07:21,445 Speaker 1: it seems like Diedrich would place a bowl on the 112 00:07:21,525 --> 00:07:25,885 Speaker 1: stomach of a naked prisoner, and the prisoners would they 113 00:07:25,885 --> 00:07:29,005 Speaker 1: were like people that they would question for information, or 114 00:07:29,045 --> 00:07:33,285 Speaker 1: people who belong to like the Royal Army or Catholics whatever, 115 00:07:34,005 --> 00:07:39,125 Speaker 1: and Alex whatever Catholic a lot of Catholic references in 116 00:07:39,165 --> 00:07:42,125 Speaker 1: this in this episode already interesting. That's when you know 117 00:07:42,165 --> 00:07:45,885 Speaker 1: it's horny. Okay. Anyway, So he would put this bowl 118 00:07:45,965 --> 00:07:49,365 Speaker 1: on the prisoner's stomach and then put hot and then 119 00:07:49,365 --> 00:07:53,165 Speaker 1: put a rat obviously inside of the bowl, or multiple rats. Listen, 120 00:07:53,285 --> 00:07:57,165 Speaker 1: can you imagine them? They're whiskers on your tummy. M 121 00:07:57,405 --> 00:07:59,325 Speaker 1: I don't like it. And then he would put hot 122 00:07:59,445 --> 00:08:02,645 Speaker 1: coals on top of the bowl. So where would the 123 00:08:02,725 --> 00:08:07,565 Speaker 1: rat go, Taylor, oh, awy, from the heat, away from 124 00:08:07,565 --> 00:08:11,525 Speaker 1: the heat, which is down, which is down into the epidermist. 125 00:08:12,605 --> 00:08:16,445 Speaker 1: Don't love that? Wow? So scientific, Yes, that is exactly 126 00:08:16,445 --> 00:08:20,445 Speaker 1: what would happen. So rats have very very sharp teeth 127 00:08:20,525 --> 00:08:23,245 Speaker 1: that can cut into a lot of stuff skin, human 128 00:08:23,325 --> 00:08:28,525 Speaker 1: skin for sure, So they would eat through the stomach 129 00:08:28,565 --> 00:08:34,525 Speaker 1: and Diedrich would be happy and feel powerful. I mean, yes, 130 00:08:34,685 --> 00:08:36,565 Speaker 1: that's it's just like flapping on the side of the 131 00:08:36,645 --> 00:08:41,645 Speaker 1: torture like, yay, they're doing it, my little rat buddies. Yes. 132 00:08:41,805 --> 00:08:44,885 Speaker 1: And also I found out that another guy is connected 133 00:08:44,925 --> 00:08:49,205 Speaker 1: to rats and rat torture, and that is your favorite person, Gabby, 134 00:08:49,885 --> 00:08:54,245 Speaker 1: Sigmund Freud. I do love Freud. So he dealt with 135 00:08:54,325 --> 00:08:59,645 Speaker 1: this patient that he lovingly called Ratsman, which again, like 136 00:08:59,685 --> 00:09:02,245 Speaker 1: these nicknames are killing me, Like that's was that a 137 00:09:02,325 --> 00:09:06,725 Speaker 1: superhero rat Man rapt saga?

Shrek is actually 142 00:09:22,845 --> 00:09:26,005 Speaker 1: queer cinema and you need to get it together anyway, Okay, okay, 143 00:09:26,525 --> 00:09:29,845 Speaker 1: Peter at the piper, he puts his little pipe on 144 00:09:30,045 --> 00:09:32,525 Speaker 1: and he is this right, there's something where the rats 145 00:09:32,565 --> 00:09:36,045 Speaker 1: come in and they carry him around. He like plays 146 00:09:36,045 --> 00:09:39,045 Speaker 1: literally so gross, and then the frats like take him 147 00:09:39,045 --> 00:09:41,925 Speaker 1: where he needs to go, you know. Actually speaking of rats, 148 00:09:42,005 --> 00:09:45,085 Speaker 1: I will say this and before I say this story, 149 00:09:45,125 --> 00:09:48,965 Speaker 1: I want to say Colombia is a very beautiful, modern country, 150 00:09:49,205 --> 00:09:51,965 Speaker 1: full of joy, full of an opportunity, but it can 151 00:09:52,125 --> 00:09:54,845 Speaker 1: get a little crazy at times. I heard of a 152 00:09:54,885 --> 00:09:57,605 Speaker 1: friend who was on a bus, a public bus in Colombia, 153 00:09:57,685 --> 00:10:00,045 Speaker 1: and a man came on the bus and had two 154 00:10:00,125 --> 00:10:03,365 Speaker 1: rats in his hand, And basically, how do you say, 155 00:10:04,605 --> 00:10:10,845 Speaker 1: is too like asks for someone to give you money, 156 00:10:10,045 --> 00:10:15,285 Speaker 1: rob So let's all learn a Spanish word today. At Anyway, 157 00:10:15,325 --> 00:10:18,805 Speaker 1: this man robbed the bus by holding the rats up 158 00:10:18,925 --> 00:10:21,045 Speaker 1: and it being like, give me all your money, and 159 00:10:21,045 --> 00:10:23,005 Speaker 1: he had the rats, and people gave him money because 160 00:10:23,005 --> 00:10:25,165 Speaker 1: they didn't want to deal with the rats. I mean, 161 00:10:26,525 --> 00:10:31,325 Speaker 1: you know, so bad, so ingenious though, like very creative, innovative. 162 00:10:31,685 --> 00:10:34,485 Speaker 1: That's very innovative, you know. I mean here we would 163 00:10:34,525 --> 00:10:38,445 Speaker 1: just you know, use guns because we have them in America. Though, 164 00:10:38,445 --> 00:10:40,125 Speaker 1: what we should do I'm going to advocate for that 165 00:10:40,205 --> 00:10:42,045 Speaker 1: policy is we're gonna take your guns, but we're going 166 00:10:42,125 --> 00:10:46,645 Speaker 1: to give everyone a rat. Get a rat. The future 167 00:10:46,805 --> 00:10:51,365 Speaker 1: is truly full of rats, Okay. Indeed, so this guy 168 00:10:51,565 --> 00:10:58,045 Speaker 1: Rat back to Freud, Ratman apparently had obsessive thoughts and fears, 169 00:10:58,165 --> 00:11:02,365 Speaker 1: specifically surrounding rat torture because his lieutenant, he was in 170 00:11:02,365 --> 00:11:05,365 Speaker 1: the military, and his lieutenant apparently used to do rat torture, 171 00:11:05,645 --> 00:11:08,925 Speaker 1: and so he was convinced that that lieutenant would hunt 172 00:11:08,965 --> 00:11:12,445 Speaker 1: his family down or his loved ones down and make 173 00:11:12,485 --> 00:11:16,205 Speaker 1: them like put them through rat torture essentially, So you know, 174 00:11:16,765 --> 00:11:22,165 Speaker 1: rat torture. Clearly, it has been consistently here throughout the years. 175 00:11:22,205 --> 00:11:27,045 Speaker 1: Well I fear for I fear asking this question, but like, so, 176 00:11:27,285 --> 00:11:31,165 Speaker 1: how far can the rats get? And like does it 177 00:11:31,365 --> 00:11:34,325 Speaker 1: kill them? Probably? Yeah, because how it depends on how 178 00:11:34,325 --> 00:11:35,885 Speaker 1: far they get, you know what I mean? Can you 179 00:11:36,445 --> 00:11:38,445 Speaker 1: take us back to the scene with d Drake, you 180 00:11:38,445 --> 00:11:40,525 Speaker 1: know he's laughing to the side, to the side, having 181 00:11:40,525 --> 00:11:43,565 Speaker 1: a great time with his rats burring into somebody's body, Like, 182 00:11:43,605 --> 00:11:47,405 Speaker 1: what would happen after that? Well, if it was like questioning, 183 00:11:47,725 --> 00:11:50,845 Speaker 1: then he would stop it if they talked, obviously, and 184 00:11:50,925 --> 00:11:53,965 Speaker 1: many times it's really interesting just the fear of rat 185 00:11:54,005 --> 00:11:57,685 Speaker 1: torture would make people speak, like if they're being interrogated. 186 00:11:58,045 --> 00:12:00,005 Speaker 1: But if it was just like death, he would just 187 00:12:00,085 --> 00:12:02,965 Speaker 1: let the rats burrow and then the people would bleed 188 00:12:03,005 --> 00:12:06,125 Speaker 1: out to death. They wouldn't necessarily die from the rat torture. 189 00:12:08,045 --> 00:12:13,645 Speaker 1: A great question. Indirectly, they are like without the rats, 190 00:12:13,645 --> 00:12:16,685 Speaker 1: they wouldn't be the bleeding to death, you know exactly, 191 00:12:16,685 --> 00:12:19,005 Speaker 1: so technically like it would kill them, but it was 192 00:12:19,085 --> 00:12:22,245 Speaker 1: like the bleeding out, not the actual act of you know, 193 00:12:22,525 --> 00:12:29,045 Speaker 1: rats consuming you. And then how the rats post burrow? Yeah, 194 00:12:29,085 --> 00:12:34,285 Speaker 1: how are the rats full? Bar? Oh? No, would they 195 00:12:34,325 --> 00:12:36,725 Speaker 1: get out of the person or would they be reused? 196 00:12:36,845 --> 00:12:39,405 Speaker 1: Rats or would they just be like, you know, I 197 00:12:39,485 --> 00:12:43,325 Speaker 1: can't rats diedrich Specifically, I know for a fact that 198 00:12:43,445 --> 00:12:47,685 Speaker 1: Emperor Nero, if you're asking about the reusable um sustainable 199 00:12:47,765 --> 00:12:51,125 Speaker 1: quality of rats in terms of rat torture, because it 200 00:12:51,165 --> 00:12:53,445 Speaker 1: is a sustainable form of torture, you know, there's not 201 00:12:53,485 --> 00:12:55,725 Speaker 1: really like a lot of greenhouse gas emissions happening because 202 00:12:55,765 --> 00:12:59,725 Speaker 1: of this um and her Nero would put the hungry 203 00:12:59,805 --> 00:13:02,165 Speaker 1: rats inside of the barrels, as we all know, and 204 00:13:02,205 --> 00:13:04,845 Speaker 1: then if the rats were full because they'd stopped eating, 205 00:13:05,485 --> 00:13:10,445 Speaker 1: he would put more rats hungry rats. So it was rats. 206 00:13:10,845 --> 00:13:13,405 Speaker 1: It was like a never ending thing. He's able to 207 00:13:13,445 --> 00:13:16,925 Speaker 1: feed his rats. Yea torture too, Yeah, basically like as 208 00:13:16,925 --> 00:13:19,485 Speaker 1: long as right, as long as the rats were hungry, 209 00:13:19,605 --> 00:13:22,445 Speaker 1: torture was possible. There was another I didn't research this 210 00:13:22,485 --> 00:13:23,965 Speaker 1: one as much, but there was another one in ancient 211 00:13:24,005 --> 00:13:28,165 Speaker 1: India where basically people it was like a torture device 212 00:13:28,765 --> 00:13:31,845 Speaker 1: big pants. The torture device was big pants. Listen, so 213 00:13:35,725 --> 00:13:38,165 Speaker 1: kind of kind of but like the pants were really 214 00:13:38,165 --> 00:13:41,005 Speaker 1: big in like the groin area and in the thigh area, 215 00:13:41,325 --> 00:13:45,125 Speaker 1: but then closed up tight in like the ankle or 216 00:13:45,165 --> 00:13:47,485 Speaker 1: like the knee area. And so what would happen is 217 00:13:47,485 --> 00:13:51,165 Speaker 1: they would to throw hungry, hungry hippos rats into the 218 00:13:51,205 --> 00:13:54,325 Speaker 1: groin area and the rats couldn't escape, and so they 219 00:13:54,325 --> 00:13:58,365 Speaker 1: would chomp chomp you on your genitals, chomp, chomp on 220 00:13:58,405 --> 00:14:01,085 Speaker 1: your genitals. I don't like that at all, you know, 221 00:14:01,205 --> 00:14:04,845 Speaker 1: unlike everything else which I really liked. Descriptions were really 222 00:14:05,045 --> 00:14:08,845 Speaker 1: the spirit Dric Swee Gabby, because I just imagined Diedrich 223 00:14:08,885 --> 00:14:10,725 Speaker 1: sounds like a super freak and it seems like he 224 00:14:10,765 --> 00:14:13,085 Speaker 1: would have, you know, like his prized rats. You know, 225 00:14:13,205 --> 00:14:14,805 Speaker 1: he would be like, who are these are my three 226 00:14:14,845 --> 00:14:17,485 Speaker 1: best rats? And I like to like reuse them or something. 227 00:14:17,525 --> 00:14:20,325 Speaker 1: You know. What I will say too, is that rat 228 00:14:20,365 --> 00:14:23,965 Speaker 1: torture has been used pretty recently too, Like this isn't 229 00:14:24,005 --> 00:14:27,885 Speaker 1: just a casual thing that used to happen in ancient times, 230 00:14:27,965 --> 00:14:33,965 Speaker 1: because it's so sustainable, it's still happening. Oh yeah, so yes, 231 00:14:34,965 --> 00:14:39,485 Speaker 1: during the military dictatorship in Chile Pinochet, who was the 232 00:14:39,605 --> 00:14:42,885 Speaker 1: leader of this horrible dictatorship that lasted from nineteen seventy 233 00:14:42,925 --> 00:14:45,925 Speaker 1: three to nineteen ninety So literally, y'all, Britney Spears was 234 00:14:45,965 --> 00:14:49,685 Speaker 1: like dropping hits while this was happening. Anyone rebelling against 235 00:14:49,725 --> 00:14:54,725 Speaker 1: the dictatorship would suffer like horrible torture and imprisonment if 236 00:14:54,725 --> 00:14:56,765 Speaker 1: they were caught. And I found the story of one 237 00:14:56,845 --> 00:14:59,205 Speaker 1: victim who was a twenty three year old woman called 238 00:14:59,325 --> 00:15:04,245 Speaker 1: Luis that an isis Moreno suffered three years of torture 239 00:15:04,445 --> 00:15:08,125 Speaker 1: under his Dictatorshi and this included a variety of things 240 00:15:08,205 --> 00:15:11,725 Speaker 1: including like electrical shocks, seeing her brother and father being 241 00:15:11,805 --> 00:15:17,125 Speaker 1: tortured while she was beaten, and also being raped by 242 00:15:17,325 --> 00:15:22,645 Speaker 1: animals and rats. Because the dictatorship thought that rats would 243 00:15:22,725 --> 00:15:26,525 Speaker 1: make her sterile. They shipped her off after three years 244 00:15:26,685 --> 00:15:30,205 Speaker 1: as a quote unquote threat to Chile, which is insane. 245 00:15:30,605 --> 00:15:32,165 Speaker 1: And then she was able to get treatment and was 246 00:15:32,165 --> 00:15:33,925 Speaker 1: able to have a child, and she hasn't has a 247 00:15:34,005 --> 00:15:37,005 Speaker 1: wonderful eighteen year old daughter. This was from two thousand 248 00:15:37,005 --> 00:15:40,365 Speaker 1: and three, but obviously hoping she's still okay. So she 249 00:15:40,485 --> 00:15:41,925 Speaker 1: was able to have a kid. But that is why 250 00:15:42,005 --> 00:15:44,765 Speaker 1: they would do that, which is just disgusting and horrible. 251 00:15:44,845 --> 00:15:47,485 Speaker 1: So this is still actually pretty recent. The Brazilian dictatorship 252 00:15:47,685 --> 00:15:51,085 Speaker 1: also used rat torture. It's just like a common gross 253 00:15:51,285 --> 00:15:57,205 Speaker 1: thing essentially, that's crazy. Yeah, and there's so many rats, 254 00:15:57,645 --> 00:16:00,005 Speaker 1: they're oh my gosh, there are so many rats. I know. 255 00:16:00,645 --> 00:16:02,845 Speaker 1: I will never forget when I was in Brooklyn one 256 00:16:02,925 --> 00:16:04,565 Speaker 1: time and I was like two am and I was 257 00:16:04,605 --> 00:16:07,805 Speaker 1: walking the streets and rats don't move for you. They 258 00:16:07,885 --> 00:16:10,045 Speaker 1: don't move for you. They like they'll be like, these 259 00:16:10,085 --> 00:16:12,165 Speaker 1: are my streets now, and I just remember having to 260 00:16:12,245 --> 00:16:15,645 Speaker 1: like dodge them. It was the most traumatic thing I've 261 00:16:15,645 --> 00:16:20,005 Speaker 1: ever experienced. Yeah, every New Yorker has some rat story, 262 00:16:20,365 --> 00:16:23,285 Speaker 1: and like they've failed. You have some rat stories, you 263 00:16:23,365 --> 00:16:25,445 Speaker 1: need to send them to us. Yeah. I feel like 264 00:16:25,645 --> 00:16:28,405 Speaker 1: rats like New York is their town, you know, and 265 00:16:28,525 --> 00:16:30,565 Speaker 1: like all the people who live there are just guests 266 00:16:31,125 --> 00:16:35,885 Speaker 1: to the rat town, the rat race, the rat town. Also, 267 00:16:36,285 --> 00:16:37,965 Speaker 1: I do want to clarify that I don't think Britney 268 00:16:37,965 --> 00:16:40,605 Speaker 1: Spears was dropping hits until like the mid nineties. Um, 269 00:16:40,805 --> 00:16:43,525 Speaker 1: so she might have been dropping them after the regime. 270 00:16:43,645 --> 00:16:45,365 Speaker 1: So just you know, because I want to make sure 271 00:16:45,405 --> 00:16:48,445 Speaker 1: we're factually correct, because you know, Taylor, she got dragged, 272 00:16:48,485 --> 00:16:53,405 Speaker 1: you know, for citing the right information, but you knowiting 273 00:16:53,805 --> 00:16:57,365 Speaker 1: right information. Wonderful, y'all, please send us a good review 274 00:16:57,365 --> 00:17:01,965 Speaker 1: if you like this podcast. We are sad.

Well 278 00:17:12,165 --> 00:17:15,405 Speaker 1: share also is incredible because she's dropped hits for in 279 00:17:15,565 --> 00:17:18,725 Speaker 1: every decade since the sixties, so she's had like number 280 00:17:18,805 --> 00:17:22,765 Speaker 1: one this whole time. Sharon was dropping hits that she 281 00:17:22,925 --> 00:17:26,685 Speaker 1: lay on Dictatorship, which is incredible before after she was 282 00:17:26,765 --> 00:17:29,405 Speaker 1: there the whole time. Yeah, well, hopefully not there because 283 00:17:29,405 --> 00:17:31,525 Speaker 1: I would have hoped that she would stop it, you know, 284 00:17:32,245 --> 00:17:36,885 Speaker 1: um Share, why don't you stop the Dictatorship? Kidding um anyway, So, yes, 285 00:17:37,125 --> 00:17:39,885 Speaker 1: that is rat torture. It is gross and it is horrifying, 286 00:17:40,085 --> 00:17:43,885 Speaker 1: and you've probably seen it in um like Gaming Throne 287 00:17:44,045 --> 00:17:47,685 Speaker 1: season two.

Here are a lot of 310 00:19:07,685 --> 00:19:11,885 Speaker 1: things you shouldn't do on our show. So animals have 311 00:19:12,165 --> 00:19:15,325 Speaker 1: been used in a variety of ways to torture people 312 00:19:15,405 --> 00:19:18,125 Speaker 1: throughout time, and I just it's really fun, you know, 313 00:19:18,245 --> 00:19:20,285 Speaker 1: looking at the history of torture, because you're like, wow, 314 00:19:20,445 --> 00:19:26,405 Speaker 1: people are bad and creative and sadistic, so I'm glad 315 00:19:26,445 --> 00:19:29,325 Speaker 1: you mentioned Nero too, because we're going to talk about 316 00:19:29,365 --> 00:19:31,925 Speaker 1: Nero even more later in the episode. But he is 317 00:19:33,005 --> 00:19:36,325 Speaker 1: kind of related to some animal torture. Basically, when he 318 00:19:36,605 --> 00:19:41,445 Speaker 1: was emperor, he hired this one, you know, girl boss, 319 00:19:41,605 --> 00:19:48,885 Speaker 1: badass woman named Locusta, and she was a notorious maker 320 00:19:48,925 --> 00:19:51,805 Speaker 1: of poisons, so a lot of people called her a sorceress, 321 00:19:52,605 --> 00:19:55,245 Speaker 1: and so she would make poisons. Nero would get it 322 00:19:55,325 --> 00:19:57,085 Speaker 1: for his enemies and stuff because he loved to kill 323 00:19:57,205 --> 00:19:59,605 Speaker 1: people is one of his favorite things. That and sex 324 00:19:59,725 --> 00:20:02,445 Speaker 1: two of his favorite things. What a sweet guy. Yeah, 325 00:20:03,165 --> 00:20:08,125 Speaker 1: But after he died, his the next emperor, Galba, there 326 00:20:08,205 --> 00:20:13,005 Speaker 1: are rumors that he. By rumors, I mean fake historical stories, 327 00:20:13,085 --> 00:20:16,165 Speaker 1: so they're not historical, just fake stories about how this 328 00:20:16,325 --> 00:20:18,685 Speaker 1: woman was killed. And one of the ways that they 329 00:20:18,725 --> 00:20:21,085 Speaker 1: said that she was killed was that they had similar 330 00:20:21,125 --> 00:20:25,365 Speaker 1: to what Nika had said also about sexual abuse by rats, 331 00:20:25,565 --> 00:20:27,365 Speaker 1: not the rats, that the rats are not doing the 332 00:20:27,445 --> 00:20:29,845 Speaker 1: sexual abuses, the people doing the right, you know. Anyway, 333 00:20:30,165 --> 00:20:34,125 Speaker 1: but they said that she, this woman, Locusta, was executed 334 00:20:34,325 --> 00:20:37,485 Speaker 1: by they had taught a giraffe how to rape people. 335 00:20:37,645 --> 00:20:40,005 Speaker 1: So she was raped by a giraffe and then eaten 336 00:20:40,245 --> 00:20:48,445 Speaker 1: by animals. Taylor's face is horrified. Slow down, So Taylor's 337 00:20:48,485 --> 00:20:51,965 Speaker 1: crying in this episode. Yeah, so the giraffe. But the 338 00:20:52,085 --> 00:20:55,485 Speaker 1: thing is a lot of you know, historical sources are like, yeah, y'all, 339 00:20:55,565 --> 00:20:58,085 Speaker 1: this isn't true. At most. What could have happened is 340 00:20:58,125 --> 00:21:01,845 Speaker 1: that maybe she was raped by a donkey. Okay, because 341 00:21:02,125 --> 00:21:04,965 Speaker 1: but then they're also like, that also might not be true. 342 00:21:05,005 --> 00:21:07,165 Speaker 1: That might just be something people were saying because the 343 00:21:07,325 --> 00:21:10,645 Speaker 1: oldest surviving Latin text is called The Golden Ass and 344 00:21:10,765 --> 00:21:13,965 Speaker 1: in that book, which is a fiction work of fiction, 345 00:21:14,485 --> 00:21:17,765 Speaker 1: there is the main character he gets turned into a donkey, 346 00:21:18,245 --> 00:21:22,765 Speaker 1: and I believe he is made to rape somebody as 347 00:21:22,845 --> 00:21:24,805 Speaker 1: a donkey. So they're like, this might all be fake. 348 00:21:25,645 --> 00:21:29,205 Speaker 1: But the thing is animals have been trained. There are 349 00:21:29,325 --> 00:21:31,965 Speaker 1: you know, actual historical records of animals being trained to 350 00:21:32,285 --> 00:21:35,765 Speaker 1: torture people. And one of the animals that is Taylor. 351 00:21:35,805 --> 00:21:38,125 Speaker 1: You're ext you're gonna hate this probably. I love how 352 00:21:38,245 --> 00:21:40,445 Speaker 1: the humans are just like passing the book like we're 353 00:21:40,485 --> 00:21:42,885 Speaker 1: not gonna We're just gonna train the animals to do it. 354 00:21:42,965 --> 00:21:46,205 Speaker 1: That is so barbaric. Yeah, our like proclivity for torture. 355 00:21:46,245 --> 00:21:49,645 Speaker 1: We're like let's have the animals do it too. How nice. 356 00:21:50,365 --> 00:21:54,525 Speaker 1: So this was in from like the medieval period to 357 00:21:55,125 --> 00:21:58,965 Speaker 1: up to like colonialism within South Asia, particularly in India 358 00:21:59,045 --> 00:22:01,845 Speaker 1: and like in Sri Lanka and areas around there, they 359 00:22:01,925 --> 00:22:06,605 Speaker 1: actually would train elephants to torture people and execute people. 360 00:22:07,005 --> 00:22:13,485 Speaker 1: Elephants are so sweet, so um. A lot of times, 361 00:22:13,765 --> 00:22:17,765 Speaker 1: I think most often the elephants were used exclusively for execution, 362 00:22:17,965 --> 00:22:20,245 Speaker 1: so one thing that they would do there. There was 363 00:22:20,285 --> 00:22:23,365 Speaker 1: one account, I think it was from the nineteenth century 364 00:22:23,525 --> 00:22:26,565 Speaker 1: where this one guy, this one British guy, was watching 365 00:22:26,645 --> 00:22:28,605 Speaker 1: this and there was an elephant. There's the man, the 366 00:22:28,885 --> 00:22:31,005 Speaker 1: guy who's going to be executed, and then there's the 367 00:22:31,085 --> 00:22:33,205 Speaker 1: elephant and he like walked around the guy three times. 368 00:22:33,245 --> 00:22:35,045 Speaker 1: The guy's head was put on like a block, and 369 00:22:35,125 --> 00:22:38,685 Speaker 1: then the elephant just stomped on his head. So that's 370 00:22:38,725 --> 00:22:41,965 Speaker 1: one account. But then there's also it seemed there were 371 00:22:42,085 --> 00:22:45,005 Speaker 1: some some conflicting accounts, but there are also a variety 372 00:22:45,045 --> 00:22:50,285 Speaker 1: of count accounts of elephants being used to actually torture 373 00:22:50,365 --> 00:22:52,525 Speaker 1: people as well before they were executed, so not just 374 00:22:52,605 --> 00:22:55,845 Speaker 1: a crashing on, not just stomping on someone's head. But 375 00:22:56,125 --> 00:22:59,405 Speaker 1: you know, there were some things where the tusk would 376 00:22:59,445 --> 00:23:03,485 Speaker 1: be used to impale people. Also, people will be tied down, 377 00:23:03,605 --> 00:23:05,765 Speaker 1: and the elephants knew how to tear off people those 378 00:23:05,845 --> 00:23:10,765 Speaker 1: limbs and then they would trample them because you know, again, 379 00:23:10,925 --> 00:23:14,725 Speaker 1: elephants apparently are pretty easy to train. Oh they're so sweet. 380 00:23:15,045 --> 00:23:17,085 Speaker 1: I hate that we're making them, well not we, but 381 00:23:17,165 --> 00:23:19,125 Speaker 1: you know, I hate that people have ever made them 382 00:23:19,165 --> 00:23:22,165 Speaker 1: do mean things. Yeah. Another thing they would do is 383 00:23:22,205 --> 00:23:24,725 Speaker 1: they would, like you know, tie a prisoner or someone 384 00:23:24,765 --> 00:23:27,205 Speaker 1: who's about to be executed to an elephant's foot, and 385 00:23:27,245 --> 00:23:30,085 Speaker 1: then the elephant would just walk around and that would 386 00:23:30,125 --> 00:23:32,525 Speaker 1: just basically bank their limbs out, and so all their 387 00:23:32,565 --> 00:23:36,885 Speaker 1: limbs would become detached, not detached the socket. Yeah, and 388 00:23:37,045 --> 00:23:44,845 Speaker 1: sophant elephant anklet is a they become. Yeah. Well, but 389 00:23:45,125 --> 00:23:47,365 Speaker 1: I want to say that another animal that is frequently 390 00:23:47,445 --> 00:23:49,845 Speaker 1: throughout time in all regions of the world that has 391 00:23:49,925 --> 00:23:53,805 Speaker 1: been used for torture is insects. Give it up for 392 00:23:53,965 --> 00:23:58,205 Speaker 1: the bugs. Give it up for the bugs. What do 393 00:23:58,285 --> 00:24:02,685 Speaker 1: they do? You can't train them, You can't train them, 394 00:24:02,845 --> 00:24:05,325 Speaker 1: just do what they do. You know, they just be 395 00:24:05,565 --> 00:24:11,925 Speaker 1: doing what bugs. That's who they're called. That's why they're 396 00:24:11,965 --> 00:24:18,245 Speaker 1: called bugs. It is. I mean, it's like there's accounts, 397 00:24:18,805 --> 00:24:21,165 Speaker 1: there's accounts from all over the world about bugs. So 398 00:24:21,285 --> 00:24:24,685 Speaker 1: basically this, the simplest one was like an ancient Siberia. 399 00:24:24,965 --> 00:24:26,245 Speaker 1: You know, they would just tie you up to a 400 00:24:26,325 --> 00:24:28,445 Speaker 1: tree in a dense forest and then you just get 401 00:24:28,485 --> 00:24:30,765 Speaker 1: eaten by bugs, you know, to death. You'd be stung 402 00:24:30,885 --> 00:24:33,805 Speaker 1: by mosquitoes and flies and wasp and all that. No, 403 00:24:34,725 --> 00:24:39,125 Speaker 1: but the one that is super sadistic and fun comes 404 00:24:39,165 --> 00:24:45,085 Speaker 1: from ancient Persia. Um. It's called scathism. And there's at 405 00:24:45,165 --> 00:24:48,605 Speaker 1: least two recorded accounts of this happening. Um. And so 406 00:24:48,765 --> 00:24:51,885 Speaker 1: basically what would happen is they would give the condemned, 407 00:24:51,925 --> 00:24:54,245 Speaker 1: they would stuff them full of milk and honey, just 408 00:24:54,405 --> 00:24:56,405 Speaker 1: make you keep consuming as much as you possibly can 409 00:24:56,525 --> 00:24:58,485 Speaker 1: until it upsets your tummy a little bit. So then 410 00:24:58,485 --> 00:25:01,045 Speaker 1: you start just having a lot of d word diarrhea. 411 00:25:01,165 --> 00:25:06,165 Speaker 1: So sorry, Nika, oh no, no no. And this whole time, 412 00:25:06,245 --> 00:25:09,565 Speaker 1: while this was happening, you would have been enclosed in 413 00:25:09,765 --> 00:25:14,205 Speaker 1: either a hollowed out tree or two boats that have 414 00:25:14,245 --> 00:25:17,605 Speaker 1: been nailed together. But your heads out, your limbs are out, 415 00:25:17,725 --> 00:25:20,045 Speaker 1: and your arms are out, and your legs are out, 416 00:25:20,485 --> 00:25:23,045 Speaker 1: and so you're also just like being super overheated in 417 00:25:23,125 --> 00:25:26,805 Speaker 1: this box, being stucked with milk and honey, having diarrhea. 418 00:25:26,965 --> 00:25:29,005 Speaker 1: And then sometimes they would go and float you out 419 00:25:29,085 --> 00:25:32,725 Speaker 1: in like a stagnant pond or body of water, or 420 00:25:32,805 --> 00:25:35,245 Speaker 1: they would just leave you out in like a nice field. 421 00:25:35,685 --> 00:25:37,925 Speaker 1: And also they would lather you in honey. So because 422 00:25:37,965 --> 00:25:40,165 Speaker 1: of that honey, but then mostly because of the excrement, 423 00:25:40,245 --> 00:25:44,125 Speaker 1: a lot of bugs insects would come to your body 424 00:25:44,925 --> 00:25:47,765 Speaker 1: start biting you the wasp, etc. But the worst thing 425 00:25:48,005 --> 00:25:50,445 Speaker 1: is that they would start, you know, laying eggs in 426 00:25:50,565 --> 00:25:53,725 Speaker 1: your excrement, which sometimes then went up into your anus, 427 00:25:54,285 --> 00:25:58,285 Speaker 1: and then you would die from septic shock because maggots 428 00:25:58,325 --> 00:26:01,645 Speaker 1: were living inside of your body. I'm literally dying of 429 00:26:01,765 --> 00:26:06,525 Speaker 1: just show yeahs and this what you know. The one 430 00:26:06,565 --> 00:26:08,885 Speaker 1: account that they that I saw that you know, quote 431 00:26:08,965 --> 00:26:13,285 Speaker 1: unquote for sure happened. The death was an agonizing seventeen days. 432 00:26:13,645 --> 00:26:20,805 Speaker 1: So seven days, no, yes, and you have maggots living 433 00:26:20,845 --> 00:26:29,605 Speaker 1: inside of your disgusting. That is disgusting, smiling, gabby, disgusting, stressed. 434 00:26:30,405 --> 00:26:34,205 Speaker 1: Oh no, also very expensive milk and honey. That's a 435 00:26:34,325 --> 00:26:38,565 Speaker 1: lot lathering someone in honey. It is kind of like 436 00:26:38,685 --> 00:26:42,965 Speaker 1: an interesting, uh juxtaposition or just like this decadence of 437 00:26:43,125 --> 00:26:46,725 Speaker 1: this death in some way, but also it's horrible. So 438 00:26:49,725 --> 00:26:54,565 Speaker 1: Taylor m yeah, feeling can you brighten our day? Are 439 00:26:54,645 --> 00:26:57,285 Speaker 1: you going to brighten our day with this? So that's 440 00:26:57,325 --> 00:26:59,325 Speaker 1: the end of what we're talking about with animal stuff 441 00:26:59,405 --> 00:27:02,325 Speaker 1: because we're all we're all feeling a little bad now. 442 00:27:02,485 --> 00:27:05,925 Speaker 1: So with who but Taylor m hm, you have a 443 00:27:06,685 --> 00:27:11,565 Speaker 1: tale for us about instruments and death. So Taylor taken away, 444 00:27:11,645 --> 00:27:16,525 Speaker 1: I do, okay. So this is about this englishman from 445 00:27:17,005 --> 00:27:20,765 Speaker 1: he was sixty one. He is not named, so I 446 00:27:20,925 --> 00:27:23,445 Speaker 1: was thinking I'm thinking of either should we call him 447 00:27:23,525 --> 00:27:28,405 Speaker 1: Harry or Liam or like, are you a direction or no? 448 00:27:28,645 --> 00:27:32,085 Speaker 1: Those are Harry? Okay, Harry? Yeah, I like Harry. Okay, 449 00:27:32,165 --> 00:27:36,005 Speaker 1: hold on Harry's styles. This is not about Harry styles. 450 00:27:36,245 --> 00:27:40,005 Speaker 1: This is just about a man we're gonna call Harry anyway. 451 00:27:40,405 --> 00:27:44,325 Speaker 1: So this man, Harry, spent seven years with difficulties breathing. 452 00:27:45,125 --> 00:27:48,885 Speaker 1: This was in twenty fourteen, so pre COVID. He would 453 00:27:48,885 --> 00:27:50,485 Speaker 1: go to the hospital, was like in and out of 454 00:27:50,485 --> 00:27:55,245 Speaker 1: the hospital and is diagnosed eventually with hypersensitivity pneumonitis or HP. 455 00:27:55,445 --> 00:27:58,525 Speaker 1: That's why I'm going to call it because that's less difficult, 456 00:27:59,365 --> 00:28:02,925 Speaker 1: like an HP printer. What is that? It is an 457 00:28:03,005 --> 00:28:06,685 Speaker 1: allergy to like a mold or funk gus or a dust, 458 00:28:06,965 --> 00:28:11,285 Speaker 1: which is more or less allergies, but typically so you know, 459 00:28:11,445 --> 00:28:13,325 Speaker 1: when he first went in, they were like, oh, like, 460 00:28:13,445 --> 00:28:17,645 Speaker 1: let's treat you for allergies, but nothing was working. But honestly, 461 00:28:17,725 --> 00:28:20,605 Speaker 1: I don't know anybody that has allergies that has like 462 00:28:20,685 --> 00:28:23,725 Speaker 1: a salt for that anyway. So if you know someone 463 00:28:23,965 --> 00:28:26,085 Speaker 1: that knows how to like fix allergies, I'm sure there's 464 00:28:26,085 --> 00:28:27,245 Speaker 1: a lot of people they would love to know that. 465 00:28:27,485 --> 00:28:30,285 Speaker 1: I mean, like your tech like you know, but not 466 00:28:30,605 --> 00:28:32,685 Speaker 1: not permanent. I know what you mean, but you know 467 00:28:32,725 --> 00:28:35,565 Speaker 1: what I mean, like, yeah, everybody, well they're still taking 468 00:28:35,605 --> 00:28:38,765 Speaker 1: like zerotech or whatever every single day and nothing. They 469 00:28:38,805 --> 00:28:42,405 Speaker 1: still seem miserable. Luckily I don't have allergies that bad. 470 00:28:42,565 --> 00:28:45,285 Speaker 1: Just got to wait it out, just wait it out. Well, 471 00:28:46,045 --> 00:28:48,805 Speaker 1: all right, so poor Harry here, You're like, she didn't 472 00:28:48,805 --> 00:28:50,645 Speaker 1: work out for him, but okay, I don't work out 473 00:28:50,645 --> 00:28:54,565 Speaker 1: for him. Well okay, so so HP is. Actually it's 474 00:28:54,605 --> 00:28:57,725 Speaker 1: known to be a risk too many farmers, spall workers, 475 00:28:57,965 --> 00:29:04,285 Speaker 1: cheese workers, food processors, cheese workers. Who's a cheese worker. Look, 476 00:29:04,445 --> 00:29:08,165 Speaker 1: I have a cheese work. I've heard. I've heard that 477 00:29:08,245 --> 00:29:10,645 Speaker 1: it also affects. I read a really interesting article about 478 00:29:10,645 --> 00:29:12,245 Speaker 1: this litterally years ago. But you guys know that I 479 00:29:12,325 --> 00:29:14,285 Speaker 1: go get my nails done all the time. Well, I 480 00:29:14,405 --> 00:29:16,605 Speaker 1: used to pre COVID. But people who do like a 481 00:29:16,645 --> 00:29:18,925 Speaker 1: curl like nails all day also have that because they're 482 00:29:18,965 --> 00:29:24,005 Speaker 1: constantly breathing in the fumes from the paint or like 483 00:29:24,125 --> 00:29:26,885 Speaker 1: the glue or like your nail shark, like your nail 484 00:29:26,925 --> 00:29:29,525 Speaker 1: powder coming out, Like it's a whole thing, and it's 485 00:29:29,645 --> 00:29:33,685 Speaker 1: really dangerous and terrible. Yeah, it's it's something. It can 486 00:29:33,725 --> 00:29:37,525 Speaker 1: be found an animal for water, hey, basically stuff that 487 00:29:37,605 --> 00:29:40,685 Speaker 1: doesn't drive very well, and like what happens when stuff 488 00:29:40,725 --> 00:29:45,285 Speaker 1: doesn't drive very well, it gets moldy. Anyway, So Harry 489 00:29:45,485 --> 00:29:47,685 Speaker 1: struggled to breathe quite a bit. He had a dry 490 00:29:47,765 --> 00:29:51,285 Speaker 1: cough in and out of the hospital, and then at 491 00:29:51,325 --> 00:29:53,965 Speaker 1: one point he's like, yo, I need just I need 492 00:29:54,005 --> 00:29:56,245 Speaker 1: a vacation. I actually don't know if he was vacationing 493 00:29:56,245 --> 00:29:58,165 Speaker 1: if it was for work, but he was in Australia 494 00:29:58,285 --> 00:30:01,925 Speaker 1: for three months and he gets better. He's able to 495 00:30:02,045 --> 00:30:03,925 Speaker 1: do a long walk, which he hasn't been able to 496 00:30:03,965 --> 00:30:06,525 Speaker 1: do for years, and he is like feeling so good 497 00:30:06,605 --> 00:30:11,285 Speaker 1: and hopeful. Things were getting better. But this is good africal, 498 00:30:11,445 --> 00:30:16,445 Speaker 1: so things then got worse again. Great description show great. 499 00:30:17,485 --> 00:30:22,045 Speaker 1: So Harry returns back to England and he's back in distress. 500 00:30:22,445 --> 00:30:26,005 Speaker 1: He can't walk even short distances, like to the mailbox 501 00:30:26,125 --> 00:30:29,285 Speaker 1: or something. So doctors go all house on him, right, 502 00:30:29,365 --> 00:30:31,605 Speaker 1: and they search it. They were like looking for in 503 00:30:31,725 --> 00:30:34,405 Speaker 1: his house for mold. They're like, no, farmers, Like they're 504 00:30:34,845 --> 00:30:38,205 Speaker 1: interviewing him, like why could you possibly have this allergy? 505 00:30:38,285 --> 00:30:40,525 Speaker 1: Where is it coming from? Because basically the way to 506 00:30:40,565 --> 00:30:44,085 Speaker 1: get rid of it is to eliminate the issue, eliminate 507 00:30:44,165 --> 00:30:45,925 Speaker 1: the mold. But they like couldn't figure it out, and 508 00:30:45,925 --> 00:30:50,045 Speaker 1: they're stumped, and it is too late because poor Harry expires. 509 00:30:50,645 --> 00:30:53,405 Speaker 1: That's a that's a way to say it. Fast forward 510 00:30:53,445 --> 00:30:56,725 Speaker 1: two years and lo and behold, doctors missed one very 511 00:30:56,845 --> 00:31:02,005 Speaker 1: key aspect of Harry's life. Harry was an avid backpiper. 512 00:31:02,525 --> 00:31:05,765 Speaker 1: He played every single day except for those three that 513 00:31:05,765 --> 00:31:08,685 Speaker 1: he was in Australia, which is where he was feeling 514 00:31:08,725 --> 00:31:12,205 Speaker 1: pretty good. So two years too late, they figure out 515 00:31:12,245 --> 00:31:16,205 Speaker 1: what happened. They could have fixed it, but too late. 516 00:31:16,365 --> 00:31:21,925 Speaker 1: Wait what about a bagpipe though? What's wrong with the bagpipe? Oh? 517 00:31:22,045 --> 00:31:25,205 Speaker 1: Does it make mold? So this condition can be called 518 00:31:25,405 --> 00:31:29,125 Speaker 1: bag it from this incident is called bagpipe lung. It's 519 00:31:29,165 --> 00:31:32,205 Speaker 1: also known as farmers lung or my favorite, which is 520 00:31:32,565 --> 00:31:38,165 Speaker 1: pigeon fanciers lung, which pigeon fancier. So yeah, as funny 521 00:31:38,205 --> 00:31:41,645 Speaker 1: as that sound sounds, it should be taken like I 522 00:31:41,685 --> 00:31:44,765 Speaker 1: don't know if it's like taken very seriously, but because 523 00:31:44,805 --> 00:31:46,685 Speaker 1: it's just like people who are around birds a lot. 524 00:31:46,805 --> 00:31:50,525 Speaker 1: But like, oh no way, wait, but is it that 525 00:31:50,645 --> 00:31:55,325 Speaker 1: birds have disease or what? Yes? What okay, okay, like 526 00:31:55,525 --> 00:31:58,925 Speaker 1: from like their poop and not you know, being around 527 00:31:59,005 --> 00:32:05,925 Speaker 1: that like mold and stuff. Yes, yes, I just because 528 00:32:06,565 --> 00:32:09,325 Speaker 1: feathers I do. Yeah, I know I hear what you're saying, 529 00:32:09,325 --> 00:32:11,605 Speaker 1: but I just didn't know, like what, yeah, how do 530 00:32:11,725 --> 00:32:15,725 Speaker 1: people plays a bagpipe? Yeah, they call it like pigeon 531 00:32:15,845 --> 00:32:18,365 Speaker 1: fanciers and like far like they just need to call 532 00:32:18,485 --> 00:32:20,445 Speaker 1: it something. I mean, they're just I feel like they're 533 00:32:21,365 --> 00:32:24,365 Speaker 1: making jokes of this condition and I just don't think 534 00:32:24,405 --> 00:32:30,645 Speaker 1: that's very nice. Yeah, you Taylor tells taken on science again. 535 00:32:30,885 --> 00:32:35,325 Speaker 1: So scientists they find his bagpipe, test it and there 536 00:32:35,405 --> 00:32:39,525 Speaker 1: it is pink yeast in the bag, fungus in the mouthpiece, 537 00:32:40,565 --> 00:32:42,965 Speaker 1: and all of the other parts. There's lots of aspects 538 00:32:43,005 --> 00:32:45,765 Speaker 1: and parts of a bagpipe. So he was breathing in 539 00:32:45,885 --> 00:32:49,165 Speaker 1: these spores every single day, and these spores were like 540 00:32:49,325 --> 00:32:52,365 Speaker 1: causing scarring on his lungs, which were then causing his 541 00:32:52,725 --> 00:32:57,885 Speaker 1: difficulties breathing and cough and ultimately his demise. So after 542 00:32:58,045 --> 00:33:00,925 Speaker 1: this there is like so many articles come out like 543 00:33:01,285 --> 00:33:04,045 Speaker 1: as a PSA, like, hey, everybody who plays an instrument, 544 00:33:04,245 --> 00:33:08,085 Speaker 1: the like a wind andstrument, clean your instrument, like right now? 545 00:33:08,445 --> 00:33:12,645 Speaker 1: Do it? Do it all the time because you could die. Yes, 546 00:33:13,805 --> 00:33:16,325 Speaker 1: please clean your instruments. Um. But also I think, just 547 00:33:16,485 --> 00:33:20,085 Speaker 1: generally speaking, like let's just be clean people. Um, you know, 548 00:33:20,245 --> 00:33:22,645 Speaker 1: wash your hands. I mean I guess if you play 549 00:33:22,645 --> 00:33:25,925 Speaker 1: an instrument that's like literally a sack of like what 550 00:33:26,165 --> 00:33:29,685 Speaker 1: that you spit into might be yeah good? Soh my gosh, 551 00:33:29,765 --> 00:33:33,885 Speaker 1: wash your vibrators. Oh my gosh. I'm thinking about about 552 00:33:33,925 --> 00:33:35,565 Speaker 1: are you just like having an epiphany that you need 553 00:33:35,605 --> 00:33:38,125 Speaker 1: to wash that? I know you have to watch it. 554 00:33:38,325 --> 00:33:41,085 Speaker 1: I'm just thinking of like materials that we interact with 555 00:33:41,605 --> 00:33:47,485 Speaker 1: daily that you know, involve fluids, and I'm like, oh 556 00:33:47,565 --> 00:33:53,765 Speaker 1: my gosh, people need to know these things. Yeah, anything 557 00:33:54,285 --> 00:33:57,925 Speaker 1: anything that, Yeah, especially anything that like encounters any kind 558 00:33:57,925 --> 00:34:06,245 Speaker 1: of moisture because water cans great sports to grow. Anyway, 559 00:34:06,285 --> 00:34:08,285 Speaker 1: so I'm sure you all have seen a bagpipe's I'm 560 00:34:08,325 --> 00:34:11,245 Speaker 1: gonna break it down. Okay, are you ready? It's got 561 00:34:11,325 --> 00:34:20,925 Speaker 1: a bag and some pipes, you say, hey, so all right. 562 00:34:21,005 --> 00:34:24,525 Speaker 1: So anyway, so for the bagpipe, you have to season 563 00:34:25,005 --> 00:34:29,125 Speaker 1: your bag and that way there's it kind of helps 564 00:34:30,125 --> 00:34:33,725 Speaker 1: not trapping in moisture. It also the reason that they 565 00:34:33,725 --> 00:34:36,365 Speaker 1: originally did was so that it's sealed completely and so 566 00:34:36,525 --> 00:34:39,045 Speaker 1: that no error is escaping. But it also helps to 567 00:34:39,845 --> 00:34:42,485 Speaker 1: not wrot the bag, not grow funk the fungus that 568 00:34:42,605 --> 00:34:46,245 Speaker 1: kills you. So it's suggested, depending on how you use 569 00:34:46,365 --> 00:34:50,605 Speaker 1: your bagpipe, that you must season at least twice a yearish, 570 00:34:50,685 --> 00:34:53,125 Speaker 1: which is actually less than I was kind of anticipating. 571 00:34:53,205 --> 00:34:55,645 Speaker 1: But you know, does that like with paprika and salt 572 00:34:55,725 --> 00:34:58,845 Speaker 1: and pepper? How do you see? What is a bagpipe season? Yeah? 573 00:34:59,245 --> 00:35:03,445 Speaker 1: So does it taste good? Well? So hang on, before 574 00:35:03,485 --> 00:35:06,605 Speaker 1: we get to that, I just want to mention some 575 00:35:06,805 --> 00:35:10,045 Speaker 1: of the factors that go into why you have to 576 00:35:10,125 --> 00:35:15,285 Speaker 1: season and one is the type of leather, and two 577 00:35:15,765 --> 00:35:22,245 Speaker 1: is if you're a wet or a dry blower. I know, 578 00:35:22,525 --> 00:35:26,245 Speaker 1: I know Taylor enjoyed saying that. I love saying that, 579 00:35:26,645 --> 00:35:29,805 Speaker 1: and you know that I would love that exactly. I 580 00:35:29,885 --> 00:35:31,685 Speaker 1: had to say it because I knew y'all would love it. 581 00:35:31,845 --> 00:35:34,085 Speaker 1: And it's like a buzz speed quiz are you a 582 00:35:34,165 --> 00:35:38,525 Speaker 1: wet or a dry blow And every single and every 583 00:35:38,565 --> 00:35:41,285 Speaker 1: single one of the like descriptions of like how to 584 00:35:41,365 --> 00:35:43,325 Speaker 1: season it, mentions like if you're a wet or a 585 00:35:43,405 --> 00:35:46,005 Speaker 1: dry blower. So anyway, those are the important questions to 586 00:35:46,045 --> 00:35:50,645 Speaker 1: ask yourself. Yes, so um, okay, so this seasoning not 587 00:35:50,765 --> 00:35:52,805 Speaker 1: really I couldn't really get to the bottom of exactly 588 00:35:52,845 --> 00:35:55,445 Speaker 1: what it is. But it's like the consistency of maybe 589 00:35:55,605 --> 00:35:58,685 Speaker 1: like a paste or like a butter um. So you 590 00:35:58,805 --> 00:36:01,725 Speaker 1: have to heat that up it so it becomes a liquid. 591 00:36:01,805 --> 00:36:04,165 Speaker 1: You take off all the little pipes and then you 592 00:36:05,125 --> 00:36:08,085 Speaker 1: cork you put a little quirks in there um so 593 00:36:08,245 --> 00:36:10,005 Speaker 1: that the seasoning doesn't come out, and then you just 594 00:36:10,125 --> 00:36:13,565 Speaker 1: like rub your bagpipe like the bag together so that 595 00:36:13,645 --> 00:36:16,605 Speaker 1: it just seasons everything and then you then let it harden. 596 00:36:17,285 --> 00:36:20,485 Speaker 1: Do not play it too soon. You can mess it 597 00:36:20,605 --> 00:36:23,165 Speaker 1: up and you'll be inhaling these this seasoning that you 598 00:36:23,285 --> 00:36:27,405 Speaker 1: shouldn't be inhaling. So there you have it. That's how 599 00:36:27,445 --> 00:36:29,485 Speaker 1: you season a bagpipe. And that and be sure to 600 00:36:29,645 --> 00:36:33,645 Speaker 1: always clean your instruments and you know, anything else that 601 00:36:33,765 --> 00:36:39,005 Speaker 1: may touch a liquid. Good advice from Good hour gals. Yeah, guys, 602 00:36:39,085 --> 00:36:41,605 Speaker 1: everyone who owns a bagpipe, I mean I do. I 603 00:36:41,805 --> 00:36:45,205 Speaker 1: did have a bagpipe for like five years, but I 604 00:36:45,445 --> 00:36:50,125 Speaker 1: never figured out how to play it. So I just gabby, 605 00:36:50,205 --> 00:36:53,365 Speaker 1: you could have died, I know, especially I got that 606 00:36:53,485 --> 00:37:01,765 Speaker 1: bagpipe from eBay, so lots of stop so I used bagpipe. Okay, 607 00:37:02,165 --> 00:37:06,725 Speaker 1: So do as I say, not as I do. All right, Well, 608 00:37:07,285 --> 00:37:10,005 Speaker 1: now that we all know to season our bags and 609 00:37:10,605 --> 00:37:12,845 Speaker 1: I do think we should all ask the internal question 610 00:37:12,965 --> 00:37:15,205 Speaker 1: of are you a dry blower or wet blower? And 611 00:37:15,245 --> 00:37:18,365 Speaker 1: what does that say about you? Let us know, let 612 00:37:18,485 --> 00:37:21,445 Speaker 1: us know in the comments. Okay, over the break, just 613 00:37:21,645 --> 00:37:26,605 Speaker 1: ponder that question about yourself and we'll be right back. Okay, 614 00:37:26,645 --> 00:37:28,805 Speaker 1: So we're back with Cadaver gals, and Nico was just 615 00:37:28,965 --> 00:37:31,565 Speaker 1: doing a chip dance. So ten out of ten. You 616 00:37:31,685 --> 00:37:36,045 Speaker 1: guys need a chip. I needed a chip. The only 617 00:37:36,085 --> 00:37:38,725 Speaker 1: way to consume a chip as if you also dance. Well, 618 00:37:38,725 --> 00:37:41,445 Speaker 1: that's actually a way to choke. Can you imagine dying 619 00:37:41,645 --> 00:37:44,725 Speaker 1: right here and there on FaceTime with without any help 620 00:37:44,725 --> 00:37:47,005 Speaker 1: because I'm alone? All right? Anyway? Well, no, I do 621 00:37:47,165 --> 00:37:49,765 Speaker 1: think that's the next step of true crime podcasting. As 622 00:37:49,805 --> 00:37:52,645 Speaker 1: soon true crime podcasters we'll just kill people to have 623 00:37:52,725 --> 00:37:56,805 Speaker 1: a good story. Because of the nature of this industry, 624 00:37:58,165 --> 00:38:03,045 Speaker 1: people be weird. Okay, guys, I am so glad that 625 00:38:03,245 --> 00:38:08,045 Speaker 1: Nika had mentioned Emperor Nero in her story earlier, because 626 00:38:08,725 --> 00:38:12,325 Speaker 1: you know what Nero is. He's horny, he's a bad dude, 627 00:38:12,725 --> 00:38:18,045 Speaker 1: and no one else he is. What a bagpiper? Oh 628 00:38:18,245 --> 00:38:25,925 Speaker 1: he played the pipe? Yeah, no, he did bagpipe. The 629 00:38:26,125 --> 00:38:31,165 Speaker 1: triple threat. He's a triple threat, literally the kind of guy. 630 00:38:32,605 --> 00:38:35,565 Speaker 1: Don't you hate when you're a murderer, Sorry, don't you 631 00:38:35,685 --> 00:38:40,605 Speaker 1: hate when you're a horny, murderous bagpiper? Oh my god? Okay, 632 00:38:40,885 --> 00:38:44,365 Speaker 1: because I feel like people generally know that Nero. You 633 00:38:44,485 --> 00:38:46,525 Speaker 1: might have heard that he was a crazy dude who 634 00:38:46,605 --> 00:38:48,645 Speaker 1: like killed a lot of people and was like obviously 635 00:38:48,725 --> 00:38:50,565 Speaker 1: he did the rat torture, barrel stuff. He did a 636 00:38:50,605 --> 00:38:53,885 Speaker 1: lot of other stuff too, But I just kind of 637 00:38:53,965 --> 00:38:56,125 Speaker 1: want to think about Nero and all the terrible things 638 00:38:56,205 --> 00:39:00,285 Speaker 1: he did, but within the context of him playing the bagpipe, okay, 639 00:39:00,645 --> 00:39:03,845 Speaker 1: because like, can you imagine he's like murdering his mom, 640 00:39:04,005 --> 00:39:06,565 Speaker 1: he's murdering his wives, he's murdering all these people, but 641 00:39:06,725 --> 00:39:10,765 Speaker 1: he's also playing the bagpipe. You can't take that man seriously. 642 00:39:11,085 --> 00:39:14,285 Speaker 1: That's torture in and of itself. Yeah, I know he 643 00:39:14,445 --> 00:39:17,525 Speaker 1: wasn't very good too. No one has commented, I mean 644 00:39:17,725 --> 00:39:21,685 Speaker 1: people have actually commented, these eyes are twinkling. Okay. Well, 645 00:39:21,765 --> 00:39:23,565 Speaker 1: the sad thing about, you know, kind of being a 646 00:39:23,725 --> 00:39:28,565 Speaker 1: performative narcissist. Sometimes I can see some of myself in Nero, 647 00:39:28,805 --> 00:39:32,205 Speaker 1: not the like torturing, murdering part. But this one part 648 00:39:32,285 --> 00:39:34,965 Speaker 1: I do want to say is that he would routinely 649 00:39:35,765 --> 00:39:39,125 Speaker 1: force people to come to these long ass performances that 650 00:39:39,245 --> 00:39:41,845 Speaker 1: he would do from like theater and music stuff, and 651 00:39:42,045 --> 00:39:45,325 Speaker 1: like literally lock people in a theater for hours to 652 00:39:45,485 --> 00:39:48,005 Speaker 1: watch him perform. And I can only imagine part of 653 00:39:48,045 --> 00:39:52,325 Speaker 1: that performance was him playing the bagpipe. That's torture. Gabby, 654 00:39:53,285 --> 00:39:55,685 Speaker 1: do you see yourself in that I mean I could 655 00:39:55,725 --> 00:39:58,205 Speaker 1: see me being like, I already do this. Sometimes, like 656 00:39:58,405 --> 00:40:00,445 Speaker 1: we had a little party. I made y'all listen to 657 00:40:00,565 --> 00:40:03,925 Speaker 1: my songs, you know, like kind of a micro scale. 658 00:40:04,325 --> 00:40:10,525 Speaker 1: I did. Okay, I did. I did Aka Nero. But 659 00:40:11,005 --> 00:40:13,285 Speaker 1: the thing is like his performances that he would do 660 00:40:13,685 --> 00:40:16,925 Speaker 1: were so terrible that some people would fake their own 661 00:40:17,085 --> 00:40:19,965 Speaker 1: deaths to get out of going. And also there was 662 00:40:20,045 --> 00:40:24,205 Speaker 1: one performance where a lady she gave birth during their 663 00:40:24,285 --> 00:40:27,565 Speaker 1: performance because it was so long and she couldn't leave. 664 00:40:27,845 --> 00:40:30,645 Speaker 1: She was just like in the theater. That's sounds sadistic. 665 00:40:31,445 --> 00:40:34,645 Speaker 1: He sounds it's a problem when women start having babies. 666 00:40:35,005 --> 00:40:39,445 Speaker 1: You know you're in the Yeah, she wasn't even pregnant 667 00:40:39,485 --> 00:40:47,805 Speaker 1: before the show. It was so long. But yeah, so Nero, 668 00:40:48,645 --> 00:40:50,885 Speaker 1: like because I'm just thinking about this, Okay, So Nero 669 00:40:51,445 --> 00:40:54,485 Speaker 1: very notably killed his mother or you know, he ordered 670 00:40:54,525 --> 00:40:56,925 Speaker 1: someone to go kill his mother for him. And I'm 671 00:40:56,965 --> 00:41:00,365 Speaker 1: just imagining him because like his mom, he became emperor 672 00:41:00,445 --> 00:41:02,765 Speaker 1: when he was fourteen years old, and his mom was like, hey, 673 00:41:02,805 --> 00:41:05,045 Speaker 1: I'm gonna use my son. I'm gonna live vicariously through 674 00:41:05,085 --> 00:41:07,245 Speaker 1: you so I can rule Rome. But then as he 675 00:41:07,325 --> 00:41:09,085 Speaker 1: got a little bit older. He was like, nah, Mom, 676 00:41:09,245 --> 00:41:11,645 Speaker 1: I'm gonna do it. Leave me the fuck alone. Like 677 00:41:11,805 --> 00:41:14,765 Speaker 1: she even put her face on some coinage in Rome 678 00:41:15,085 --> 00:41:17,165 Speaker 1: and he was like, m mom, what what the hell 679 00:41:17,205 --> 00:41:20,565 Speaker 1: are you doing? Okay? So um. I think one of 680 00:41:20,605 --> 00:41:23,565 Speaker 1: the reasons that they say that his pettiness came through 681 00:41:23,605 --> 00:41:25,165 Speaker 1: and he wanted to kill his mom was because he 682 00:41:25,285 --> 00:41:28,845 Speaker 1: started sleeping with the wife of one of his mom's 683 00:41:28,885 --> 00:41:32,525 Speaker 1: political allies and was like, don't you dare do that. Narrow, Like, 684 00:41:32,645 --> 00:41:37,045 Speaker 1: what are you doing, my dude, And then she was like, 685 00:41:37,565 --> 00:41:39,605 Speaker 1: your gross don't do that. And then she's like He's like, 686 00:41:39,685 --> 00:41:42,605 Speaker 1: I'm gonna kill you toot on his bagpipe. Okay. He 687 00:41:42,845 --> 00:41:46,125 Speaker 1: orders one of his servants to go like plan a 688 00:41:46,245 --> 00:41:49,045 Speaker 1: boating accident for her, but then she doesn't die in 689 00:41:49,085 --> 00:41:51,445 Speaker 1: the boating accident, so she doesn't drown, and so she 690 00:41:51,605 --> 00:41:54,005 Speaker 1: like swims ashore and then the servant just like kills her. 691 00:41:54,045 --> 00:41:55,965 Speaker 1: And the Narrow was like it was a suicide dude 692 00:41:55,965 --> 00:41:59,125 Speaker 1: to do bagpipe, you know. He's just like like a 693 00:41:59,165 --> 00:42:02,165 Speaker 1: little leprechon running around his palace with his little bagpipe, 694 00:42:02,205 --> 00:42:05,445 Speaker 1: getting people killed, punching drywall and like playing his bagpipe. 695 00:42:05,685 --> 00:42:10,845 Speaker 1: He was the original spoiled White Kid exactly. I mean, 696 00:42:10,925 --> 00:42:14,605 Speaker 1: he obviously wasn't the most mentally stable of people, you know, 697 00:42:14,605 --> 00:42:16,365 Speaker 1: because even after he killed his mom, he felt a 698 00:42:16,445 --> 00:42:18,525 Speaker 1: laud regret. And there's this one painting of him kind 699 00:42:18,525 --> 00:42:20,925 Speaker 1: of like looking wistfully off of his bed, and I 700 00:42:21,005 --> 00:42:23,805 Speaker 1: can just imagine him writing some like pop punk, you know, 701 00:42:24,165 --> 00:42:26,605 Speaker 1: bagpipe ballads or something being like, oh, maybe I shouldn't 702 00:42:26,605 --> 00:42:28,005 Speaker 1: have killed my mom, but like whatever, I'm just going 703 00:42:28,045 --> 00:42:30,605 Speaker 1: to kill more people. So he killed his first wife 704 00:42:32,885 --> 00:42:36,005 Speaker 1: bagpipe ballads. So he killed his first wife, and then 705 00:42:36,165 --> 00:42:39,405 Speaker 1: he got with his mistress at the time, and then 706 00:42:39,805 --> 00:42:42,485 Speaker 1: they seemed kind of happy for a little bit, but 707 00:42:42,605 --> 00:42:45,125 Speaker 1: then they started arguing, and I can imagine, I mean, 708 00:42:45,165 --> 00:42:46,925 Speaker 1: of course you would start arguing if you like, we're 709 00:42:46,965 --> 00:42:48,925 Speaker 1: living with a man who played the bagpipe, Like wait, 710 00:42:49,605 --> 00:42:51,485 Speaker 1: that would start pretty quickly right after that. So they 711 00:42:51,525 --> 00:42:54,405 Speaker 1: had a kid, but then she died while she was 712 00:42:54,445 --> 00:42:57,085 Speaker 1: pregnant with their second kid, and they say, what could 713 00:42:57,125 --> 00:43:01,605 Speaker 1: have happened is Nero punched her in the stomach and 714 00:43:01,765 --> 00:43:04,445 Speaker 1: then or he just like stomped on her stomach until 715 00:43:04,485 --> 00:43:08,165 Speaker 1: she died. And so yeah, he then also felt bad 716 00:43:08,165 --> 00:43:10,605 Speaker 1: about that a little bit. I mean they say he 717 00:43:10,725 --> 00:43:12,645 Speaker 1: did a little bit, but he also was a bagpiper, 718 00:43:12,725 --> 00:43:14,565 Speaker 1: so you can't trust him. Never trust a man who 719 00:43:14,645 --> 00:43:17,645 Speaker 1: plays a bagpipe. That's what we're learning. Are you single 720 00:43:17,725 --> 00:43:21,245 Speaker 1: ladies out there, maybe that's like one of the first questions, 721 00:43:21,325 --> 00:43:24,005 Speaker 1: like do you play a bagpipe? Oh? I thought you're 722 00:43:24,005 --> 00:43:26,245 Speaker 1: gonna be like are you a white or a drive blower? 723 00:43:27,965 --> 00:43:32,125 Speaker 1: Second question, third question is do you see's in your bag? 724 00:43:32,245 --> 00:43:35,685 Speaker 1: And how often? And so he also, you know, obviously 725 00:43:35,845 --> 00:43:38,205 Speaker 1: was very performative. He did like his little theater shows 726 00:43:38,245 --> 00:43:41,005 Speaker 1: all the time. But then another thing that happened is 727 00:43:41,045 --> 00:43:43,005 Speaker 1: there is the Great Fire of Rome and a lot 728 00:43:43,085 --> 00:43:47,125 Speaker 1: of people think that Nero was the one who started 729 00:43:47,365 --> 00:43:50,845 Speaker 1: the fire and because it just happened to be where 730 00:43:50,885 --> 00:43:54,285 Speaker 1: he wanted to build this giant villa, just a quinky dink, 731 00:43:54,365 --> 00:43:56,205 Speaker 1: And there is this story where there is like, yeah, Nero, 732 00:43:56,405 --> 00:43:58,885 Speaker 1: during the fire, he was just like in his other palace, 733 00:43:59,045 --> 00:44:01,965 Speaker 1: like playing his fiddle. But fiddles weren't invented yet, so 734 00:44:02,125 --> 00:44:04,125 Speaker 1: I just imagine that during this great fire he was 735 00:44:04,205 --> 00:44:07,045 Speaker 1: playing his bagpipe, being like, dude, to do bagpipe, and 736 00:44:07,245 --> 00:44:09,685 Speaker 1: you know, the fire's rage in ha ha ha and 737 00:44:09,805 --> 00:44:12,845 Speaker 1: then the fire it raged, lots of property was destroyed, 738 00:44:12,885 --> 00:44:15,045 Speaker 1: and then he did build his new palace on it. 739 00:44:15,205 --> 00:44:18,045 Speaker 1: And his new palace, of course he did was an 740 00:44:18,205 --> 00:44:20,605 Speaker 1: orgy palace. It was basically made to be like a 741 00:44:20,765 --> 00:44:24,205 Speaker 1: sex party palace, and it was like super decadent and 742 00:44:24,325 --> 00:44:26,485 Speaker 1: all of that. And he also made like one hundred 743 00:44:26,525 --> 00:44:29,165 Speaker 1: and twenty five foot statue of himself in front of 744 00:44:29,245 --> 00:44:32,605 Speaker 1: this like villa palace, sex palace, and they would just 745 00:44:32,725 --> 00:44:34,525 Speaker 1: like do this thing where they would just like people 746 00:44:34,525 --> 00:44:36,205 Speaker 1: would come and they would feast, and they would feast 747 00:44:36,245 --> 00:44:38,325 Speaker 1: so much that they would vomit and then keep feasting, 748 00:44:38,365 --> 00:44:40,925 Speaker 1: and then they would just have these massive orgies. And 749 00:44:41,125 --> 00:44:43,805 Speaker 1: don't worry, I'm sure he would be just like tuning 750 00:44:43,845 --> 00:44:46,445 Speaker 1: around with his bagpipe too, you know, you getting getting 751 00:44:46,445 --> 00:44:48,525 Speaker 1: your drink on, pulling out your bagpipe. That's what he 752 00:44:48,645 --> 00:44:51,245 Speaker 1: was doing. He sounds like the worst. He sounds like 753 00:44:51,365 --> 00:44:58,365 Speaker 1: Elon Musk. That's why he sounds like the guy at 754 00:44:58,405 --> 00:45:01,365 Speaker 1: the party, you know that always brings out a guitar. Okay, 755 00:45:01,445 --> 00:45:05,365 Speaker 1: y'all want to hear Wonderwall, Yeah exactly, but it's yeah, 756 00:45:05,685 --> 00:45:09,565 Speaker 1: it's the bagpipe, but like the fiddle. Wonderwall hadn't come 757 00:45:09,605 --> 00:45:12,765 Speaker 1: out yet, and this time period around fifty four to 758 00:45:13,125 --> 00:45:17,445 Speaker 1: sixty nine factually accurate. Yeah, I'm trying to keep us 759 00:45:17,525 --> 00:45:22,525 Speaker 1: factual on this show. Now all about music history too, This, 760 00:45:22,685 --> 00:45:24,765 Speaker 1: I mean is a great fact. Wonderwall did not come 761 00:45:24,845 --> 00:45:28,885 Speaker 1: out in the first years of the ad. No, he 762 00:45:29,085 --> 00:45:33,325 Speaker 1: literally sounds like the worst Gabby I'm And of course 763 00:45:33,365 --> 00:45:35,685 Speaker 1: he did rot torture too. Yeah, and I think I 764 00:45:35,845 --> 00:45:37,965 Speaker 1: maybe structured the story in a way that it's we're 765 00:45:37,965 --> 00:45:41,165 Speaker 1: gonna maybe end on a really upsetting note. But he also, 766 00:45:41,365 --> 00:45:44,245 Speaker 1: you know, he loved to sexually abuse people, especially like 767 00:45:44,405 --> 00:45:46,845 Speaker 1: young people like girls and boys. Um, he would at 768 00:45:46,885 --> 00:45:50,845 Speaker 1: these sex parties sometimes like tie up a basically a 769 00:45:50,965 --> 00:45:54,925 Speaker 1: child and strip the naked and pretend he was eating them, 770 00:45:55,205 --> 00:45:58,485 Speaker 1: just to like have fun, I guess. And also another 771 00:45:58,565 --> 00:46:02,845 Speaker 1: thing is after he killed his second wife are by 772 00:46:03,485 --> 00:46:06,365 Speaker 1: stomping on her belly, he felt really bad, so he, 773 00:46:06,725 --> 00:46:09,165 Speaker 1: you know, naturally found a young boy who looked like her, 774 00:46:09,325 --> 00:46:12,205 Speaker 1: castrated him, dressed him in women's clothing, and married him. 775 00:46:12,365 --> 00:46:17,765 Speaker 1: So oh, oh my gosh, all all while bagpiping this 776 00:46:17,885 --> 00:46:22,285 Speaker 1: whole time. Gaby was your was your take, just like 777 00:46:22,925 --> 00:46:26,605 Speaker 1: Nero's life through a bagpipe lens. I mean, I'm just 778 00:46:26,725 --> 00:46:29,365 Speaker 1: imagining like he's kind of like the worst fuck boy. 779 00:46:29,565 --> 00:46:32,085 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, like look at me, look at me, 780 00:46:32,685 --> 00:46:34,605 Speaker 1: and then like look at me.
