1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:01,279
Speaker 1: Scotti. Here it is.

2
00:00:01,400 --> 00:00:03,760
Speaker 2: Oh, I'm ready to laugh and luff and law.

3
00:00:03,920 --> 00:00:06,640
Speaker 1: You know, I worry about this this this this headline

4
00:00:06,680 --> 00:00:09,600
Speaker 1: just because I feel like it gives a lot away. Okay,

5
00:00:09,600 --> 00:00:11,760
Speaker 1: but it's I may be worth it for the laugh here.

6
00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:15,760
Speaker 1: It is a good headline. Yeah, okay. Scientists open one

7
00:00:15,840 --> 00:00:20,160
Speaker 1: hundred and ninety five year old time capsule and find

8
00:00:20,680 --> 00:00:22,640
Speaker 1: nothing inside.

9
00:00:22,360 --> 00:00:27,480
Speaker 3: Oh man, that gives you that deep down empty feeling

10
00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:30,960
Speaker 3: inside that can only be fixed by an episode of

11
00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:37,640
Speaker 3: Bananas World?

12
00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:59,000

00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:11,920
Speaker 1: And I was thinking about the other day.

18
00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:14,920
Speaker 3: I'm having more fun recording this podcast now than at

19
00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:17,040
Speaker 3: any point in the last three years.

20
00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:21,040
Speaker 1: Really just a delight. It's a delight, I really joy.

21
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:24,400
Speaker 1: It's a nice I just realized I never see anybody.

22
00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:27,640
Speaker 1: I see you. When do we do this? Do you

23
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:30,120

26
00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:37,280
Speaker 2: I was wondering.

27
00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:41,800
Speaker 3: I saw her some of her posts on Instagram, and

28
00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:43,920
Speaker 3: I was like, cool, where is she? And I for

29
00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:46,600
Speaker 3: some reason, this is how worldly I am. I was like,

30
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:49,160
Speaker 3: I think she's in Portugal, but she's in Berlin. So

31
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:53,000
Speaker 3: there you go. Very different cultures, very different countries.

32
00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:57,280
Speaker 1: I'm banging out a Liquid Ivy energy right now.

Speaker 1: Of the show sponsor. I literally drink it every day.

41
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:22,840

Speaker 1: I'm just loading up in liquid Ivy and I'm ready

45
00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:33,040
Speaker 1: to record. And if you could put it in a

46
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:36,320
Speaker 1: gun and I could shoot it into my blood, I

47
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:40,200
Speaker 1: would do it. You should sell actual ivs for that

48
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:42,920
Speaker 1: thing where you just like I just like slot it,

49
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:45,520

Speaker 1: ready to go.

51
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 2: Yep, pretty fun.

52
00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:51,720
Speaker 1: I just got a haircut and I look like a

53
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:55,200
Speaker 1: little boy who got a lollipop. It is short. It

54
00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 1: is short for you. I because you know what, I

55
00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:00,520
Speaker 1: went for it long on top. I wanted to go

56
00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:04,079
Speaker 1: for that sweet peaky blinders look like just shaved all

57
00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:08,200
Speaker 1: around and then kind of longish on top and it

58
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:10,440
Speaker 1: just flops over and it makes it look like I

59
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:11,239
Speaker 1: have a comb over.

60
00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:12,000
Speaker 2: Is weird.

61
00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:15,520
Speaker 3: So it's a nice haircut. It's in three days. It's

62
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:16,520
Speaker 3: going to be incredible.

63
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:16,840
Speaker 1: Also.

64
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,760
Speaker 3: Ps, I was just in Ireland that haircut, that peaky

65
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:22,640
Speaker 3: blinders shaved and the super shaggy bangs in the front.

66
00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:25,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, all the rage, all the rage, right they still

67
00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:27,880
Speaker 1: are years later?

68
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:36,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, well Killian Murphy can do no ronger eyes. But

69
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:39,200
Speaker 3: I on my way over there, I was like, I

70
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,800
Speaker 3: don't want to just step off the plane in the

71
00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:44,760
Speaker 3: UK and in Ireland and just look like one and

72
00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:47,280
Speaker 3: one percent America. Yeah, it's it's hard not to do

73
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:50,400
Speaker 3: because we really do. And I noticed it. Yeah, we

74
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:53,480
Speaker 3: stand out like sore thumb. So I bought a pair

75
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:56,400
Speaker 3: of Adidas just to walk around. I never really wear Adidas,

76
00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:58,520
Speaker 3: but it's because I wear so many Vans and stuff.

77
00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:00,040
Speaker 3: I was like, I don't want to step off the

78
00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:02,720
Speaker 3: plane in Vans and have them be like, oh, look

79
00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:07,680
Speaker 3: at southern California showing up. Kurt Vans are the most

80
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:12,640
Speaker 3: big widow shoe. They are so popular. There two things. One,

81
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:16,360
Speaker 3: everybody's wearing Vans or Vans T shirts. I mean everybody,

82
00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:20,040
Speaker 3: all three of those countries. Vans and black Chuck tailors,

83
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:22,040
Speaker 3: black Converse super popular.

84
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:24,640
Speaker 1: Whoa and had they replaced? Like were they as popular

85
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:26,800
Speaker 1: as like Adidas Socker?

86
00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:29,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, they were up. They were at that level. They

87
00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:32,400
Speaker 3: were Vans were everywhere. So then by wearing Adidas, I

88
00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:36,760
Speaker 3: still look fine, but it was comical. And then I

89
00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:38,680
Speaker 3: don't know what happened in the last few years, but

90
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 3: at least since the last time I was in England,

91
00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:46,800
Speaker 3: people wear shirts that say Los Angeles or California or Malibu.

92
00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:47,799
Speaker 1: Crazy.

93
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:53,760
Speaker 3: What California is so popular in London it is like

94
00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:57,039
Speaker 3: every other every fifth shirt said Los Angeles on it,

95
00:04:57,040 --> 00:05:00,719
Speaker 3: and I'm talking everybody. And so it got to the

96
00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:05,039
Speaker 3: point where then so I noticed it. I was like,

97
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:07,200
Speaker 3: look at all these and I noticed it everywhere. Noticed

98
00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:10,200
Speaker 3: it in Dublin and then I saw somebody wearing a

99
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:14,600
Speaker 3: San Diego sweatshirt and clearly a brit Or, clearly somebody

100
00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:16,880
Speaker 3: from over there. And I was like, well, that's kind

101
00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:18,240
Speaker 3: of a stretch. But I was like, you know what,

102
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:21,839
Speaker 3: San Diego to the rest of the world is gorgeous.

103
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:25,599
Speaker 3: You know, it's a beautiful vacation destination, probably the best

104
00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:26,600
Speaker 3: weather in the planet.

105
00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:30,520
Speaker 1: It's what you imagine Los Angeles looks like. When you

106
00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:35,080
Speaker 1: think about Los Angeles, you think like, oh, palm trees, beautiful,

107
00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:38,480
Speaker 1: not just strip malls, which is Los Angeles.

108
00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:40,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, just donut shops and vapors.

109
00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:41,800
Speaker 1: Yeah.

110
00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:44,200
Speaker 3: And then so like three days later, I'm still seeing

111
00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:48,279
Speaker 3: La Los Angeles, Los Angeles, Hollywood, Hollywood, Malibu, Malibu, San Diego.

112
00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:50,680
Speaker 3: And then I round this corner and I see a

113
00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:53,520
Speaker 3: woman wearing a sweatshirt that says Sacramento.

114
00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:55,640
Speaker 1: I just started laughing so loud.

115
00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:01,359
Speaker 3: There are people in Sacramento that you couldn't pay born

116
00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:04,400
Speaker 3: and raised to wear a sweatshirt that's is Sacramento, the

117
00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:08,720
Speaker 3: great capital of California. I was like, boy, that's how

118
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:11,560
Speaker 3: popular California is in the UK. You can wear a

119
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:14,279
Speaker 3: Sacramento sweatshirt and fit right in is it.

120
00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:17,400
Speaker 1: That they imagine that it's simply the opposite of where

121
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:22,520
Speaker 1: they are like always Sonny and like care free? Is that?

122
00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:24,839
Speaker 1: What is that? Maybe? What it is like you always

123
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:27,880
Speaker 1: want it's always what's what you don't have is what

124
00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:31,320
Speaker 1: you want? Right? Or like what you think is cool? Yeah?

125
00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:34,640
Speaker 3: Maybe, I mean I know that, and you know, I

126
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:37,800
Speaker 3: can never and would never speak for the women out there,

127
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:40,680
Speaker 3: but I've sensed that those sort of dad crew neck

128
00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:45,400
Speaker 3: sweatshirts that say like Paris like a bold Jackson hole

129
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:48,800
Speaker 3: or wherever, yeah, are very popular, and so I think

130
00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:53,559
Speaker 3: LA just seems really nice and glamorous to people who've

131
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:57,320
Speaker 3: never visited it before. But shout out to that woman

132
00:06:57,360 --> 00:07:00,279
Speaker 3: for getting a true lol out of me, for just

133
00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:05,960
Speaker 3: shocking me with Sacramento a boil boy what.

134
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:10,760
Speaker 1: Oh that's fantastic. And just to remind everybody if you

135
00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:14,920
Speaker 1: live in Atlanta or rally, Atlanta City Winery is about

136

146
00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:50,680
Speaker 1: Brooklyn in November eleventh, twelfth, and thirteenth, great shows. No beavers,

147
00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:53,440
Speaker 1: No beaver's happening in Baltimore. That's we're saying.

148
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:56,680
Speaker 3: I tried, we got we didn't get a permanent no.

149
00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:59,040
Speaker 3: But the person at the Maryland Science Center that we

150
00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:02,160
Speaker 3: had been in contact with, the response email made me

151
00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:04,400
Speaker 3: think something else is going on that has nothing to

152
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:06,960
Speaker 3: do with the Banana Boys bringing beavers back to Baltimore.

153
00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:10,480
Speaker 3: I think she's overwhelmed with stuff. And she was like,

154
00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:12,920
Speaker 3: I just can't make this happen on that date. I'm

155
00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:15,800
Speaker 3: so sorry. So anyways, we're going to try again. We're

156
00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:17,520
Speaker 3: never going to stop trying to get the beavers back

157
00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:18,120
Speaker 3: in Baltimore.

158
00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:23,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then of course Philly December eighth, and then

159
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:26,040
Speaker 1: there should be one more date. I was thinking, Pittsburgh.

160
00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:28,440
Speaker 1: Are you okay with Pittsburgh If we go from Philly

161
00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:34,880
Speaker 1: to Pittsburgh and then you go back down to Maryland. Sure, yeah, yeah,

162
00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:37,120
Speaker 1: all right, that's a great city. If you have a

163
00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:41,839
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh venue, could you please DM me personally, Kurt Brown

164
00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:46,679
Speaker 1: Oler so it doesn't get lost in bananas dms. If

165
00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:49,320
Speaker 1: you have a great Pittsburgh venue around two hundred seats,

166
00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:52,920
Speaker 1: that would be amazing. I love Pittsburgh's Pittsburgh so fun,

167
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:53,679
Speaker 1: would have such a.

168
00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:54,680
Speaker 2: Good time, most fun.

169
00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:57,520
Speaker 3: And also we've talked about in the pod, Heinz ketchup

170
00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:00,160
Speaker 3: is the number one ketchup for a reason. Yeah, if

171
00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:03,880
Speaker 3: your restaurant serves some homemade ketchup, you can squirt it

172
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:05,000
Speaker 3: joyfully up your.

173
00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:06,880
Speaker 1: Dairy air because it is terrible.

174
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:09,760
Speaker 3: Hines is number one. Baby, So Pittsburgh, we're gonna try

175
00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:10,440
Speaker 3: to find a venue.

176
00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:12,120
Speaker 1: I guess we'll try and find a venue and then

177
00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:14,959
Speaker 1: maybe also do a Hins tour with everybody. Maybe we

178
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:19,160
Speaker 1: can organize our own Hinds tour, a Bananas podcast Hines Tour.

179
00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:22,000
Speaker 2: I can think of fifty seven reasons why I'd want

180
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:22,840
Speaker 2: to go on that tool.

181
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:28,240
Speaker 1: Well, here it is. Scientists open one hundred and ninety

182
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:31,240
Speaker 1: five year old time capsule at West Point and find

183
00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:36,199
Speaker 1: nothing inside. Jeez, it's a week was sent by Katie.

184
00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:37,160
Speaker 2: Thank you.

185
00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:43,000
Speaker 1: This was written by Doug g Where for Stars and Stripes.

186
00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:46,960
Speaker 3: Oh I love that publication. I can't get enough. Good

187
00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:48,640
Speaker 3: job dog, best in the BUZ, and I.

188
00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:52,240
Speaker 1: Just want everybody to know Stars and Stripes. Whatever it is,

189
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:56,640
Speaker 1: I'm assuming it's a military publication. Is having a back

190
00:09:56,679 --> 00:10:02,680
Speaker 1: to school digital access sale. You can say, fifty percent

191
00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:06,960
Speaker 1: off your subscription to Stars and Stripes. I'm betting the

192
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:10,200
Speaker 1: majority of people who get Stars and Stripe get it

193
00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:15,040
Speaker 1: delivered to their home and are of age seventy enough.

194
00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:15,960
Speaker 1: But here we go.

195
00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:16,960
Speaker 2: Okay.

196
00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:19,560
Speaker 1: Scientists open one hundred ninety five year old time capsule

197
00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:22,040
Speaker 1: at West Point find nothing inside. Dozens of people at

198
00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:25,160
Speaker 1: the US Military of West Point, New York. Dozens of people.

199
00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:28,920
Speaker 1: They did this at a ceremony. We're surprised Monday when

200
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:31,480
Speaker 1: officials opened what was thought to be a nearly two

201
00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:34,880
Speaker 1: hundred year old time capsule and found nothing inside except

202
00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:38,439
Speaker 1: a layer of dirt. Oh no. This picture is of

203
00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:41,920
Speaker 1: this dude opening this time capsule and people are like,

204
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,800
Speaker 1: they got their arms in the air, like we're opening

205
00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:48,959
Speaker 1: a time capsule. They're all in uniform. They're very excited.

206
00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:51,760
Speaker 1: What is the world like what did two hundred years

207
00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:52,959
Speaker 1: ago want us to know?

208
00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:55,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, what do they value back then?

209
00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:57,640
Speaker 1: Quote, we are not certain if it's soil or mud

210
00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:00,559
Speaker 1: or dust fall that's in a west point. Our chologists

211
00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:03,240
Speaker 1: said in the moments after removing the lid from the

212
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:06,679
Speaker 1: box in the moments, which is about one cubic foot

213
00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:10,000
Speaker 1: in size, it may not be anything. If anything was

214
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:11,760
Speaker 1: placed in the box when it was buried in eighteen

215
00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:16,520
Speaker 1: twenty eight in the base of a Thattius Kazusco monument,

216
00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:19,640
Speaker 1: no part of it was recognizable when the lid was

217
00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:23,920
Speaker 1: pried off during the unveiling Monday, they had an unveiling Kazusco.

218
00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:24,920
Speaker 1: I would have gone to that.

219
00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:28,240
Speaker 3: If they said, hey, we're opening I did the math.

220
00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:30,600
Speaker 3: I ran the math on my phone eighteen twenty eight.

221
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:33,840
Speaker 3: It's eighteen twenty eight years Wow.

222
00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:35,440
Speaker 2: I ran the numbers over here.

223
00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:38,560
Speaker 3: And if somebody said, hey, we're opening a box that

224
00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:40,679
Speaker 3: was sealed in eighteen twenty eight to see what it's inside.

225
00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:42,000
Speaker 3: You want to show up, I'd be like, if it's

226
00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:44,480
Speaker 3: after ten am, count me in here.

227
00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:47,000
Speaker 1: It is. If anything was placed in the box when

228
00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:49,760
Speaker 1: it was buried in eighteen twenty eight in the base

229
00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:52,760
Speaker 1: of a Thattius Kazusko monument. No part of it was

230
00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:56,559
Speaker 1: recognizable when they opened the at an unveiling. Kazusko was

231
00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:59,959
Speaker 1: a Polish born military engineer who fought in the revel

232
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:04,200
Speaker 1: Lutionary War and engineered fortifications at West Point in the

233
00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:08,040
Speaker 1: late eighteenth century. And his dream was to put a

234
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:09,880
Speaker 1: doughnut inside a time capsule.

235
00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:12,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, he did a good job. That's what it was. Guy.

236
00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:14,640
Speaker 3: It was a dough He was great at bridges. He

237
00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:18,200
Speaker 3: was just terrible at knowing how long food preserves last.

238
00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:21,000
Speaker 1: He just put a hogi in there and sealed it up,

239
00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:21,640
Speaker 1: popped it in.

240
00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:24,400
Speaker 3: There was a powdered donut, that's said they disc that's

241
00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:26,200
Speaker 3: not dirt. Did you taste it?

242
00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:29,280
Speaker 1: Tasted, you assholes. We don't want to think that they

243
00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:31,000
Speaker 1: went to all the trouble to put a box in

244
00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:34,240
Speaker 1: the monument and not put anything in it. Hudson said,

245
00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:37,079
Speaker 1: we will screen all the silt through a fine mesh

246
00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:39,200
Speaker 1: screen to see if we can find any remains in

247
00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:42,520
Speaker 1: it donut and determined what if anything was in the here.

248
00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:46,640
Speaker 1: Potentially it was something small ed organic that may have

249
00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:49,079
Speaker 1: come apart over time, but we're just not certain.

250
00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:53,560
Speaker 3: That's even weirder and small and organic is so strange

251
00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:58,160
Speaker 3: it huh. I mean, what would they have wanted? You

252
00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:01,080
Speaker 3: really want a person You want a hand written Yeah,

253
00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:04,000
Speaker 3: you want something that says what's going on that day,

254
00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:06,840
Speaker 3: and like, hey, it's this day in this year, the

255
00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:08,320
Speaker 3: weather's like this, this is where.

256
00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:12,120
Speaker 1: Oh that's probably what it was. Yeah, that's organic, Matt, right,

257
00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:15,480
Speaker 1: that paper's organic, so it could just have you know,

258
00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:16,720
Speaker 1: crumbled and dissolved.

259
00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:19,240
Speaker 2: It was a baked potato. Maybe he just had a great,

260
00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:20,240
Speaker 2: perfect baked potato.

261
00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:22,800
Speaker 3: He was hiding it here his wife, she's always getting

262
00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:24,680
Speaker 3: in on him, and he put in the.

263
00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:26,600
Speaker 2: Box that stash. It is on statue.

264
00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:29,520
Speaker 1: I'll always have my potato, he would. He just would

265
00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:31,920
Speaker 1: go to sleep thinking about it at night. If everything

266
00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:33,480
Speaker 1: goes bad, I've got my potato.

267
00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:35,760
Speaker 2: I do jacket potato.

268
00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:37,800
Speaker 1: I do have to get it out of that statue.

269
00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:40,959
Speaker 1: But the box was discovered a few months ago when

270
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:44,280
Speaker 1: renovations were being done to the eight foot tall bronze

271
00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:48,439
Speaker 1: crush Usko monument. Hudson said the box was previously X rayed,

272
00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:51,600
Speaker 1: but the scan was inconclusive because the container is made

273
00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:54,760
Speaker 1: of lead. Oh my god, I met all that's often

274
00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:58,600
Speaker 1: too dense for X rays to penetrate. Wow, well, I'd

275
00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:02,319
Speaker 1: say so so. Yeah. Academy officials determined the capsule was

276
00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:05,800
Speaker 1: placed in the base by cadets in eighteen twenty eight,

277
00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:10,600
Speaker 1: twenty six years after the Academy's founding. Monday's ceremony included

278
00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:16,280
Speaker 1: panels a, scientists, historians, blah blah blah, big audience. Lieutenant

279
00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:20,160
Speaker 1: Oh this is good. I love this. Lieutenant General Steve

280
00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:22,840
Speaker 1: gilland this guy fucked it all. If this is a

281
00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:26,920
Speaker 1: classic Schroderer's box, this guy is the reason there's only

282
00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:32,680
Speaker 1: dirt inside. Lieutenant General Steve gilland the Academy superintendent said

283
00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:37,040
Speaker 1: before the box opening, I guarantee you it's gonna be

284
00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:42,720
Speaker 1: better than Giraldo one more time. I guarantee it's gonna

285
00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:43,240
Speaker 1: be better than.

286
00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:46,600
Speaker 2: Giraldo than Doroaldo. Oh Geraldo Rivera.

287
00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:48,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, I remember when he opened up al Capone safe

288
00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:50,800
Speaker 1: and there was nothing inside except for like a beer bottle.

289
00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:56,040
Speaker 3: Dude, I had one hundred percent forgotten about that. I

290
00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:59,680
Speaker 3: cannot believe I had forgotten about that extreme.

291
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:03,280
Speaker 2: I guess I've just blanked that. It was such my mind.

292
00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:05,680
Speaker 1: He's such a loser, But it was such a big deal.

293
00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:07,880
Speaker 1: It was on like primetime television. It was like al

294
00:15:07,920 --> 00:15:11,560
Speaker 1: Capone's Safe and it was such a huge deal.

295
00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:16,280
Speaker 2: That's right. Yeah, I totally forgot about that. Well, this

296
00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:19,720
Speaker 2: guy who would follow this lieutenant general into battle, I

297
00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:22,800
Speaker 2: guaranteed victory field.

298
00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:25,800
Speaker 1: And see, at that moment, whatever was in there crumbled,

299
00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:27,920
Speaker 1: you know, it just kept. It was like it existed

300
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:30,880
Speaker 1: in superposition of existence and non existence, and that it

301
00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:32,080
Speaker 1: just crumbled when he said that.

302
00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:35,320
Speaker 3: Or is this the greatest practical joke in American history?

303
00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:38,240
Speaker 3: Did somebody bury this thing so with so much pomp

304
00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:39,200
Speaker 3: and circumstance?

305
00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:41,880
Speaker 1: Is the original Internet troll exactly?

306
00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:45,480
Speaker 2: Mm hmmmm. Defied expectations.

307
00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:47,160
Speaker 1: What did we say we were going to put in

308
00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:50,360
Speaker 1: a time capsule? Did we decide? I?

309
00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:53,960
Speaker 3: Over the years, I've realized that I don't remember almost anything.

310
00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:57,120
Speaker 2: My biggest blank spot in life is Banana's.

311
00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:59,360
Speaker 1: Podcast and once it is said here.

312
00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:02,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, once we took I am flying by the seat

313
00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:04,960
Speaker 3: of my pain. Yes, I prep the stories and then

314
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:08,520
Speaker 3: it's letter rip. But yeah, we got to uh, we

315
00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:10,080
Speaker 3: got to go back because we did have a time

316
00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:13,640
Speaker 3: capsule mentioned in an app and also we time capsule

317
00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:14,920
Speaker 3: is the easiest thing in the world to do. You

318
00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:16,880
Speaker 3: and I should just be bearing them every time we

319
00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:17,840
Speaker 3: do a live show in a city.

320
00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:21,040
Speaker 1: I just agree and then just be like, open this

321
00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:23,960
Speaker 1: in three weeks like that, don't even wait that long.

322
00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:26,600
Speaker 1: This one actually does have a doughnut in it.

323
00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:33,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's pretty fun. We definitely did one in my

324
00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:35,320
Speaker 3: middle school, in my elementary school, and I don't I

325
00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:37,520
Speaker 3: think that they were all lining it up to open

326
00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:40,160
Speaker 3: at the year two thousand and I don't know if

327
00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:43,000
Speaker 3: they ever did. I bet there were tons of opened

328
00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:47,360
Speaker 3: on the millennium. I bet tons of people. You know,

329
00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:50,400
Speaker 3: we're like, hey, we're we're elementary school students in the

330
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:52,920
Speaker 3: nineteen fifties. We're gonna have somebody open this up in

331
00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:54,200
Speaker 3: the year two thousand.

332
00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:57,080
Speaker 1: Can you imagine? Kids. I love the Actually, you know what,

333
00:16:57,160 --> 00:16:58,920
Speaker 1: I think it's a really cool idea because I have

334
00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:03,320
Speaker 1: I just thought, like, I have a laminator, so I

335
00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:06,479
Speaker 1: can like laminate stuff on that paper. Yeah, and that

336
00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:10,600
Speaker 1: won't dissolve. It would be nice time my kids do

337
00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:14,840
Speaker 1: something for themselves, like on their way to college or whatever. Yeah,

338
00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:16,960
Speaker 1: and then bury it in the front yard and then

339
00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:18,639
Speaker 1: forget about it when we sell the house.

340
00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:22,240
Speaker 3: And then have to come back fun and I don't

341
00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:24,840
Speaker 3: you couldn't do it in a lead box. But what

342
00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:28,679
Speaker 3: if we just started bearing polaroid cameras loaded with film

343
00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:33,000
Speaker 3: already in them, or disposable cameras and where we took

344
00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:35,520
Speaker 3: a few photos on the first Because in the future

345
00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:38,119
Speaker 3: it's gonna be so hard to get film developed. But

346
00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:41,200
Speaker 3: it'll be like this task people because it adds another

347
00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:44,919
Speaker 3: level of suspense where it's like, oh, a camera. Then

348
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:47,560
Speaker 3: they have to get it developed and that could take

349
00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:51,200
Speaker 3: the weeks, and then it'll just be like us holding

350
00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:55,879
Speaker 3: you know, two giant cold cut sandwiches and smart Ah.

351
00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:58,399
Speaker 1: I have this, I'm looking at it right now. I

352
00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:02,520
Speaker 1: have my camcorder from my childhood and it takes those

353
00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:05,600
Speaker 1: vhs C tapes. Do you remember those, the little ones?

354
00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:11,920
Speaker 1: And there's a place in LA that will digitize VHSC tapes. Yeah,

355
00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:14,040
Speaker 1: and I think maybe this week I'll bring them down

356
00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:16,840
Speaker 1: and get them digitized to see what's on there. A

357
00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:20,800
Speaker 1: lot of it's upsetting. I remember that. You mean you

358
00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:25,400
Speaker 1: mean just you behaving like a total loser. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,

359
00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:27,600
Speaker 1: yeah that happens. Yeah. Yeah. We like one of our

360
00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:30,919
Speaker 1: movies was called invasion of the Martian penises, and you

361
00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:34,280
Speaker 1: can imagine all of the all the jokes are just

362
00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:37,240
Speaker 1: uh dick jokes the whole time, and our spaceship was

363
00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:40,880
Speaker 1: a tampon that landed on a globe.

364
00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:44,840
Speaker 2: Yep, but that's you know, classic. But you got to

365
00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:45,760
Speaker 2: get it out of your system.

366
00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:48,640
Speaker 1: Yet there we go. You are so positive, Scott. It's

367
00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:49,639
Speaker 1: so positive you do.

Speaker 2: We all have.

369
00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:55,160
Speaker 3: It's like if you don't get those bad jokes out

370
00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:58,160
Speaker 3: of your system in middle school, in high school, then

371
00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:01,399
Speaker 3: you are the person who's still telling dead baby jokes

372
00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:03,800
Speaker 3: or whatever. You're at a bar in your forties and

373
00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:05,080
Speaker 3: you just gotta let it go.

374
00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:09,840
Speaker 2: Yep, you gotta burn it down. Well, that's very funny.

375
00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:12,639
Speaker 3: The funniest I would have absolutely gone to that also

376
00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:13,240
Speaker 3: been animals.

377
00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:14,600
Speaker 1: If they're opening one in your town.

378
00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:16,760
Speaker 3: We're not showing up for it, but let us know

379
00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:19,119
Speaker 3: because we want to know if there's actually something funny

380
00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:23,159
Speaker 3: and cool inside of a time capsule. Yeah, time capsule

381
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:24,760
Speaker 3: is a good name for that too. They could have

382
00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:28,040
Speaker 3: gone a lot away now. The phrase time capsule is

383
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:28,720
Speaker 3: pretty cool.

384
00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:30,920
Speaker 1: It really is good. You could it could have been

385
00:19:30,920 --> 00:19:34,720
Speaker 1: like record box or something. Yeah, and time capsules. Awesome.

386
00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:38,240
Speaker 1: Time capsule is a really. Capsule is a good name.

387
00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:41,560
Speaker 1: You don't you don't now we never say capsule unless

388
00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:42,720
Speaker 1: we're talking about a pill.

389
00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:46,320
Speaker 3: I feel like, yeah, time capsule. Yeah, space capsule used

390
00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:48,320
Speaker 3: to be the thing, but that's a really. Whoever came

391
00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:50,920
Speaker 3: up with that, they probably wrote it down and put

392
00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:54,240
Speaker 3: the reason why in a time capsule that has yet

393
00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:56,520
Speaker 3: to be discovered yet. You know, we get a lot

394
00:19:56,560 --> 00:19:58,360
Speaker 3: on this podcast, and we've done a couple of them

395
00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:01,280
Speaker 3: because we get so many messages in a bottle or

396
00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:03,359
Speaker 3: notes in a bottle or letters in a bottle thrown

397
00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:06,280
Speaker 3: into the sea and found by somebody else. But there's one,

398
00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:08,560
Speaker 3: and I'll dig back through on my phone. Maybe I'll

399
00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:10,359
Speaker 3: try to do it for the next episode, which was

400
00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:13,640

Speaker 1: I want a casual suit to wear around. I feel

431
00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:41,720
Speaker 1: like I'm of the age where I could just rock

432
00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:42,919
Speaker 1: a casual suit.

433
00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:45,320

00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:47,920
Speaker 1: Like I don't know, a linen suit or something. I don't.

435
00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:50,600

436
00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:52,439
Speaker 1: I've had a bug up my ass about it for

437
00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:54,879
Speaker 1: about three hours now, and I haven't stopped thinking about it.

438
00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:57,080
Speaker 2: I think a signature look is a good idea.

439
00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:02,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, start at forty evan, but that's.

440
00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:04,600
Speaker 2: Also if you do it, I'm younger than that, you're

441
00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:05,080
Speaker 2: a jerk.

442
00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:07,960
Speaker 3: Like yeah, it's like anybody over the age of sixty

443
00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:11,040
Speaker 3: five can wear any hat. And yes, yeah, if you're

444
00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:13,720
Speaker 3: twenty three and you wear Fedora, you have big problems.

445
00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:17,399
Speaker 3: If you're six. If you're nineteen you're wearing a beret,

446
00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:19,280
Speaker 3: people look at you weird. If you're ninety and you're

447
00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:21,520
Speaker 3: wearing a bret, they're like, I want to sit next

448
00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:23,320
Speaker 3: to that lady and get some wisdom.

449
00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:27,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, because I just remember seeing I was twenty two

450
00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:30,480
Speaker 1: or twenty three and seeing Mike Myers improvised with UCB

451
00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:34,240
Speaker 1: on like that tiny little stage at their first location.

452
00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:38,560
Speaker 1: I don't know, Mike Myers was maybe in forty, do

453
00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:41,240
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, maybe maybe in his forties,

454
00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:44,200
Speaker 1: but he was dressed the same way I was dressed,

455
00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:49,280
Speaker 1: And I was like I don't like that Mike Myers.

456
00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:53,080
Speaker 2: He was We're talking about Austin Powers, Wayne's World, Mike Myers.

457
00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:57,040
Speaker 1: Right, yeah, not the memer Mike Myers, not Mike Myers,

458
00:22:57,040 --> 00:22:59,880
Speaker 1: the whole Halloween, Halloween. I didn't see that one improvise.

459
00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:02,840
Speaker 1: But he was excellent, right, he was like a great

460
00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:05,760
Speaker 1: improviser back he was good. Yeah, yah, yeah, yeah, I heard.

461
00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:08,640
Speaker 3: I've always heard he was a really great improviser. But yeah,

462
00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:12,240
Speaker 3: I know if yes, I think I support this. You're

463
00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:15,560
Speaker 3: entering your Tom wolfase where it's like that's a.

464

Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly.

466
00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:21,000
Speaker 3: Maybe maybe we can get a suit sponsor for you.

467
00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:23,359
Speaker 3: Maybe we can find somebody, because I think it's about

Speaker 3: picturing the color, like you're saying, Linen, Yeah, and it's

469
00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:28,359
Speaker 3: tough year round, but if we can find that signature

470
00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:30,800
Speaker 3: suit color, that really I don't.

471
00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:31,959
Speaker 2: Know if you're an autumn Curt, I don't know if

472
00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:32,480
Speaker 2: you're I.

473
00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:34,879
Speaker 1: Feel like an I almost feel like I remember when

474
00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:36,840
Speaker 1: I was a kid, and this is what I'm imagining.

475
00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:45,280
Speaker 1: I had from TJ Max, an off white like thin

476
00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:49,159
Speaker 1: suit that then I would roll the sleeves up a

477
00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:53,480
Speaker 1: la Don Johnson in Miamivice and I had a pink

478
00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:57,840
Speaker 1: shirt on underneath with a skinny tie, and I would

479
00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:01,679
Speaker 1: wear that today. I I would love to wear that today.

480
00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:04,080
Speaker 3: Well, I hope you do do that, and I'll be

481
00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:06,320

483
00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:08,960
Speaker 3: very cool.

484
00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:11,520
Speaker 1: Okay, you're old.

485
00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:15,399
Speaker 3: Yeah, you guys are referencing shows that are one hundred

486
00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:16,000
Speaker 3: years old.

487
00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:19,400
Speaker 1: The back of the time capsule, the old creeps.

488
00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:22,240
Speaker 2: Okay. Zane Cooper sent this in a long time ago.

489
00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:25,719
Speaker 2: I bet he can't believe that I'm doing it. This

490
00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:33,919
Speaker 2: was written by Julia Binswanger. Yes, yeah, she's writing for Smithsonian. Smithsonian.

491
00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:35,040
Speaker 2: That's a real publication.

492
00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:38,400
Speaker 1: You're giving me a high know what this headline is yet,

493
00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:42,680
Speaker 1: I'm excited about Smithsonian. This nineteen year old bike from

494
00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:47,119
Speaker 1: Alaska to Argentina. Whoa, Oh my god, this is some

495
00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:48,920
Speaker 1: real banana stuff. Wow.

496
00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:52,280
Speaker 3: And there's a sentence in the second to last paragraph

497
00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:55,360
Speaker 3: that is so the spirit of this podcast.

498
00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:55,960
Speaker 2: Here we go.

499
00:24:56,760 --> 00:24:59,919
Speaker 3: On August first, twenty twenty one, Liam Garner strapped at

500
00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:03,719
Speaker 3: and a sleeping bag to his kh as Zaka mountain

501
00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:06,600
Speaker 3: bike and started peddling south with his peers preparing for

502
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:10,280
Speaker 3: their first semester in college, The seventeen year old from

503
00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:12,879
Speaker 3: Long Beach, California had another plan. He decided he was

504
00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:15,639
Speaker 3: going to bike his way from Alaska to Argentina.

505
00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:20,680
Speaker 2: Wow, when you're seventeen, you really do feel invincible, you

506
00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:22,600
Speaker 2: know much? Yeah.

507
00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:25,280
Speaker 3: He would start at prude Hoe Bay in Alaska, the

508
00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:29,040
Speaker 3: northernmost point in the United States accessible by road, and

509
00:25:29,080 --> 00:25:32,280
Speaker 3: his goal was to reach the southernmost point in South America,

510
00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:35,800
Speaker 3: which I'm going to butcher this, but I'm gonna go

511
00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:36,600
Speaker 3: for it anyways.

512
00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:43,879
Speaker 1: USh oh man, how do I say this? USh or?

513
00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:49,800
Speaker 2: USh ushu? Iowa? God, I'm blowing this. It's embarrassing. Argentina.

514
00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:50,919
Speaker 1: I got that part.

515
00:25:52,600 --> 00:25:55,560
Speaker 2: His budget was four hundred and fifty dollars a month.

516
00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:58,600
Speaker 1: Oh okay, cheaper than I expected.

517
00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:01,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, Garner said. I spent the entire month after I

518
00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:04,679
Speaker 3: graduated just getting the equipment and then I left. It

519
00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:07,879
Speaker 3: was really rapid. It wasn't planned out very hard to

520
00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:10,880
Speaker 3: begin with. Garner had already ridden his bike once from

521
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:13,920
Speaker 3: Los Angeles to San Francisco, a trip he had documented

522
00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:17,480
Speaker 3: on TikTok, and later he told USA Today's Eve Chen,

523
00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:19,119
Speaker 3: who's also the best in the business.

524
00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:19,360
Speaker 1: Yeah.

525
00:26:20,359 --> 00:26:23,960
Speaker 3: He read to Shake the Sleeping Self by Jedediah Jenkins,

526
00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:27,280
Speaker 3: which chronicles the author's cycling journey from Oregon to Patagonia,

527
00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:28,760
Speaker 3: and realized he wanted.

528
00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:29,159
Speaker 2: To go bigger.

529
00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:31,440
Speaker 1: Oh wow, this is.

530
00:26:31,359 --> 00:26:32,400
Speaker 2: When it gets bananas.

531
00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:35,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, Garner said, I hadn't ridden a bike in over

532
00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:38,280
Speaker 3: six months, and I didn't even have a bike until

533
00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:41,119
Speaker 3: the month I left. It's good to have blind confidence

534
00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:42,120
Speaker 3: in yourself sometimes.

535
00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:45,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, that classic bananas. Did he say it's good to

536
00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:48,520
Speaker 1: have blind confidence in yourself sometimes? Oh, that's a quote.

537
00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:50,119
Speaker 1: That's great. That's exactly what we believe.

538
00:26:50,359 --> 00:26:53,400
Speaker 3: Gardner's mother worried for her son's safety and had misgivings

539
00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:56,200
Speaker 3: about the trip. The team didn't even tell his father's

540
00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:58,160
Speaker 3: plans until he was already up in Alaska.

541
00:26:58,280 --> 00:26:58,680
Speaker 1: Wow.

542
00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:03,960
Speaker 3: Eventually, however, he's doing it so right. Eventually, sorry, dad,

543
00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:10,600
Speaker 3: I'm in the northernmost point, Prudeo Bay, Alaska. Eventually his

544
00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:14,600
Speaker 3: both Eventually, both of his parents, however, became his biggest supporters.

545
00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:19,720
Speaker 3: The trip was not without its setbacks, including multiple robberies,

546
00:27:19,760 --> 00:27:23,520
Speaker 3: intense weather, and one severe injury. At one point after

547
00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:26,479
Speaker 3: biking multiple days in southern Mexico jungle with over one

548
00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:28,840
Speaker 3: hundred degree heat, he and a friend who had joined

549
00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:31,639
Speaker 3: a leg of the trip almost called it quits. My

550
00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:33,720
Speaker 3: friend talked to me and said, Hey, if this continues

551
00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:36,960
Speaker 3: like this and it gets any hotter in Central America,

552
00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:39,480
Speaker 3: let's just agree to take the bus back because there's

553
00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:40,560
Speaker 3: no point in suffering.

554
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:44,680
Speaker 2: Kid's a whimp. Yeah, that kid's a whimp, A smart whimp.

555
00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:46,399
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah.

556
00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:49,400
Speaker 3: So they make it to Guatemala, the weather cooled down

557
00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:52,400
Speaker 3: and the pair continued on. At another point in Columbia,

558
00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:55,240
Speaker 3: Garner hit a pothole going downhill and landed on his

559
00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:56,359
Speaker 3: head without his helmet.

560
00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:57,960
Speaker 2: Oh not good.

561
00:27:58,000 --> 00:27:59,760
Speaker 3: You gotta wear those helmets, guys, you only have one

562
00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:03,960
Speaker 3: brain in this lifetime. I just remember waking up covered

563
00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:05,919
Speaker 3: in blood, and I didn't even know what had happened.

564
00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:09,080
Speaker 3: I had to get forty stitches. They did plastic surgery

565
00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:11,679
Speaker 3: to stitch my ear back together, and that ended up

566
00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:12,879
Speaker 3: taking an entire month.

567
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:14,280
Speaker 2: In and out of the hospital.

568
00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:17,040
Speaker 1: Wow, in and out of the hospital. Down there. Or

569
00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:19,040
Speaker 1: he flew home down there? Wow?

570
00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:19,480
Speaker 2: Down there?

571
00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:20,040
Speaker 1: Okay?

572
00:28:20,840 --> 00:28:22,600
Speaker 2: Still, Garner said, no regret.

573
00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:25,919
Speaker 3: When I was little, I was diagnosed with Aspergers. I

574
00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:28,679
Speaker 3: always struggled with school and routine, and I think that

575
00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:30,720
Speaker 3: this was a really big part of why I've become

576
00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:33,520
Speaker 3: so attracted to the idea of this big adventure away

577
00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:34,400
Speaker 3: from civilization.

578
00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:39,840
Speaker 1: Okay, pretty cool, make it work, were yeah, put it

579
00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:40,360
Speaker 1: to work.

580
00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:44,640
Speaker 3: Side note, I've just read something that nobody's using their

581
00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:50,120
Speaker 3: pelotons anymore. I just was reading something about walking something,

582
00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:53,239
Speaker 3: walking boards, walking whatever those things are called, and they

583
00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:55,719
Speaker 3: were like, people are using these more. Sales are up

584
00:28:55,760 --> 00:28:56,720
Speaker 3: two thousand percent.

585
00:28:58,360 --> 00:29:02,880
Speaker 1: Words called a but also, you know what, it's a

586
00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:06,080
Speaker 1: great time to get a peloton. I believe they're called

587
00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:11,120
Speaker 1: walking pads. They're just treadmill yeah.

588
00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:12,000
Speaker 2: So let me see.

589
00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:14,320
Speaker 1: Yes, oh yeah, but they don't but they don't have

590
00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:16,480
Speaker 1: they're not an electric right.

591
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:18,880
Speaker 3: They are, but they only go like four and a

592
00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:23,040
Speaker 3: half miles an hour. So they're basically for like treadmill desks.

593
00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:24,640
Speaker 3: They're for people that just need to get.

594
00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:28,520
Speaker 2: Some steps in. Okay, walking pads, the new peloton.

595
00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:33,200
Speaker 1: I just ordered a peloton today, Scotty, Did you really?

596
00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:36,880
Speaker 1: I did, because you could rent them now for incredibly cheap.

597
00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:40,800
Speaker 3: Oh you're no poser. See that's cool, you you're third wave.

598
00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:43,560
Speaker 3: I always like people that let it, let it cool down.

599
00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:45,640
Speaker 1: I just have two friends because they're like, they're so cheap.

600
00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:49,560
Speaker 1: Now that two friends of mine were like, we got

601
00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:51,360
Speaker 1: them in, they're amazing, And I was like, Okay, I'll

602
00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:54,280
Speaker 1: try it. And my deal is I'm going to have

603
00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:56,080
Speaker 1: it for six months and if I don't use it

604
00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:59,560
Speaker 1: one hundred times in six months, I'm gonna send it back.

605
00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:02,880
Speaker 1: And I got like a big I got adored with

00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:10,680
Speaker 1: I do and if I'm not using it, I'm sending

609
00:30:10,680 --> 00:30:11,000
Speaker 1: it back.

610
00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:15,520
Speaker 3: It'll be cool when you're like ten days away from

00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:17,880
Speaker 3: the six months wrapping up and you have to do

612
00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:20,200
Speaker 3: twenty sessions just in those two you're just doing two

613
00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:22,240
Speaker 3: a days just to justify keeping it.

614
00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:25,719
Speaker 1: And if that happens, and that means I really like it,

615

00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:53,480
Speaker 3: On January tenth, twenty twenty three, so again he took

627
00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:55,720
Speaker 3: off August first, twenty twenty one.

628
00:30:55,880 --> 00:30:58,640
Speaker 1: Okay, I'm running the numbers over here. I was got

629
00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:02,200
Speaker 1: about so I was gone. I was going to run them. Yeah,

630
00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:05,840
Speaker 1: run the numbers. Okay, some prude ho bee prude hobey.

631
00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:08,200
Speaker 2: On August first.

632
00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:09,560
Speaker 1: I want to just find out how many miles it

633
00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:13,160
Speaker 1: is to where what Argentina spell it out? Oh boy,

634
00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:16,720
Speaker 1: I am just do it. I'll spell it out. Yeah,

635
00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:17,600
Speaker 1: I can read it.

636
00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:25,680
Speaker 3: Us h ua ia ushu got it kuaya ushwaya maybehwaya.

637
00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:27,640
Speaker 1: It says, can't find a way there.

638
00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:30,360
Speaker 2: That's what's cool.

639
00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:33,280
Speaker 1: Try again. Maybe I'm hitting that you can do it.

640
00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:34,640
Speaker 1: There is a way there.

641
00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:39,240
Speaker 2: Gardner finally reached his destination in January tenth, twenty twenty three,

642
00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:45,160
Speaker 2: in Ushawaya, when he had biked nearly twenty thousand miles

643
00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:47,040
Speaker 2: through fourteen countries.

644
00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:49,600
Speaker 1: Twenty thousand miles.

645
00:31:49,560 --> 00:31:53,680
Speaker 3: Twenty thousand miles, fourteen countries, five hundred and twenty seven.

646
00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:57,800
Speaker 1: Days, five hundred and twenty seven days. Not bad. He

647
00:31:57,840 --> 00:32:01,120
Speaker 1: went through, so I guess he made it through. And

648
00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:04,880
Speaker 1: then like so it was just always warm, right, I

649
00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:07,560
Speaker 1: mean it wasn't that he started in August.

650
00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:09,840
Speaker 2: And yeah, so that's crazy. I mean I think it

651
00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:10,440
Speaker 2: was scalding.

652
00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:14,880
Speaker 1: Hut he started in August. That seems crazy. He's got

653
00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:18,040
Speaker 1: to get the out of Canada quick then because it

654
00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:23,959
Speaker 1: starts getting cold. I biked also the road from I

655
00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:27,600
Speaker 1: had my my uh my brother in law rode his

656
00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:33,720
Speaker 1: motorcycle from from southern California to Alaska, and he was

657
00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:36,480
Speaker 1: saying that that road that that goes to the Yukon,

658
00:32:37,040 --> 00:32:39,640
Speaker 1: it's just like there'll be like two hundred miles with

659
00:32:39,920 --> 00:32:41,080
Speaker 1: no no thing.

660
00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:45,680
Speaker 3: It's just just a road. Yeah, that's true. I wanted

661
00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:48,280
Speaker 3: to do that drive years ago, from la to Alaska.

662
00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:53,240
Speaker 3: I was dating somebody who got a free Ford Fiesta.

663
00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:55,920
Speaker 3: The whole thing was like, hey, road trip with this

664
00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:59,720
Speaker 3: Ford Fiesta and document it and that. We considered it

665
00:32:59,760 --> 00:33:01,760
Speaker 3: and there like you have to leave mid July and

666
00:33:01,800 --> 00:33:05,040
Speaker 3: get there by mid August because the weather can turn

667
00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:07,160
Speaker 3: even in September. And they said the same thing. They're

668
00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:13,800
Speaker 3: like that road is empty. Yeah, glad we didn't do it. Actually, yeah,

669
00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:18,040
Speaker 3: he said. I biked through Mexico, Central America, Columbia, pu Peru, Ecuador,

670
00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:21,040
Speaker 3: everything from there to here, and now I'm standing here

671
00:33:21,080 --> 00:33:23,400
Speaker 3: at the end of the world, he announced on TikTok

672
00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:27,040
Speaker 3: upon his arrival. Here's the sentence that made me choose this. Okay,

673
00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:30,040
Speaker 3: when I graduated high school, I wanted to do something

674
00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:33,600
Speaker 3: so absurd and incredibly unbelievable that if I managed to

675
00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:36,000
Speaker 3: pull it off somehow, I would never be able to

676
00:33:36,040 --> 00:33:37,120
Speaker 3: doubt myself again.

677
00:33:37,320 --> 00:33:42,400
Speaker 1: Yes, that's amazing. I love that guy. This kid is

678
00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:43,320
Speaker 1: the best.

679
00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:46,720
Speaker 3: Despite his long journey, Curti b he decided against taking

680
00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:49,320
Speaker 3: a quick flight back to California. Instead, the cyclist is

681
00:33:49,320 --> 00:33:51,480
Speaker 3: currently backpacking his way home.

682
00:33:52,560 --> 00:33:55,000
Speaker 1: He sold his bike in Argentina.

683
00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:59,400
Speaker 3: Just gave it so, Liam Gardner, good for you. That

684
00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:02,360
Speaker 3: is such a good quote. Doing something so absurd and

685
00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:05,400
Speaker 3: incredibly unbelievable that if I've managed to pull it off somehow,

686
00:34:05,480 --> 00:34:07,680
Speaker 3: I would never be able to doubt myself again.

687
00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:08,200
Speaker 2: I love it.

688
00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:15,440
Speaker 1: Congratulations, dude. That's the best I do have. I mean, like,

689
00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:20,440
Speaker 1: I still have high hopes to doing like some section

690
00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:26,359
Speaker 1: of the Pacific Crest Trail, ideally with Olive and or Gus. Yeah,

691
00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:30,440
Speaker 1: and it's just a yeah, it would be that way

692
00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:32,880
Speaker 1: with a time commitment. Is that the problem? It's a

693
00:34:32,920 --> 00:34:35,440
Speaker 1: time also, like by the time that they're old enough

694
00:34:35,480 --> 00:34:39,480
Speaker 1: to do it, will I be too old. I'm not

695
00:34:39,560 --> 00:34:43,160
Speaker 1: a I'm an athletic person, but I'm not an extremely

696
00:34:43,280 --> 00:34:47,759
Speaker 1: athletic person. But I would be doing it at like

697
00:34:47,880 --> 00:34:50,839
Speaker 1: fifty nine or sixty. You know, my uncle Pete did

698
00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:54,160
Speaker 1: the Appalachian Trail, I think, in his seventies. Yeah, people

699
00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:56,000
Speaker 1: do do it, but I always think that the people

700
00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:59,799
Speaker 1: who are doing it in their seventies are lifelong athletes.

701
00:35:00,480 --> 00:35:03,080
Speaker 1: You know, it is true. That is true. I feel

702
00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:05,680
Speaker 1: like it gives you something to shoot for, you know. Yeah,

703
00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:10,000
Speaker 1: that's what. Hey, I'm getting a peloton. I'm renting. I'm renting.

704
00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:11,680
Speaker 1: I'm renting a peloton.

705
00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:15,640
Speaker 3: I think they're still trying to finish that trail from

706
00:35:15,719 --> 00:35:18,960
Speaker 3: Washington State to Washington, d C. The bike trail that

707
00:35:19,320 --> 00:35:23,240
Speaker 3: is continuous and goes on old rail lines. So cool

708
00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:26,680
Speaker 3: if that happens, or maybe we both have to do it,

709
00:35:26,719 --> 00:35:29,800
Speaker 3: but I simply must do that ride in my lifetime.

710
00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:32,359
Speaker 1: Oh, I love that idea. That's what the best. Yes,

711
00:35:32,480 --> 00:35:34,400
Speaker 1: I just that's all I want to do with my time.

712
00:35:34,840 --> 00:35:36,399
Speaker 1: That is all I want to do with my time.

713
00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:39,480
Speaker 1: Is I want to walk long distances or ride long distances.

714
00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:40,720
Speaker 1: It's really all I want.

715
00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:42,000
Speaker 2: We're walk boys.

716
00:35:42,120 --> 00:35:44,360
Speaker 1: You can walk Door to Shore three. Yeah, way, we

717
00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:45,879
Speaker 1: haven't been pushing it at all.

718
00:35:46,719 --> 00:35:49,560
Speaker 3: We're doing Door to Shore three in October for those

719
00:35:49,719 --> 00:35:51,759
Speaker 3: We're going to have our link up on our Instagram.

00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:52,480
Speaker 1: But Kurti, B and I.

721
00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:55,200

722
00:35:55,280 --> 00:36:00,960
Speaker 3: walking directly to the Pacific Ocean Shure nineteen miles. It's

723
00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:04,360
Speaker 3: like thirty four thousand steps or something insane. But anyways,

724
00:36:04,360 --> 00:36:06,800
Speaker 3: this is our third year doing it. It's for cast LA.

725

00:36:27,880 --> 00:36:30,600
Speaker 1: You don't have to sign up and give us thirty

733
00:36:30,600 --> 00:36:33,520
Speaker 1: five dollars for a race bib, although maybe that would've

Speaker 1: got a fun You get to choose your charity and

Speaker 3: dot com or the Bananas Podcast on Instagram.

816
00:40:56,640 --> 00:41:01,680
Speaker 1: So this was sent in by Laurel powers Miller. A

817
00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:06,319
Speaker 1: fantastic name, what a nice name, great name. This was

818
00:41:06,360 --> 00:41:12,040
Speaker 1: on LAist. This was written by ray Ellen Bachell Best

819
00:41:12,080 --> 00:41:16,640
Speaker 1: in the Biz Biz for KFF Health News.

820
00:41:17,800 --> 00:41:20,200
Speaker 3: I'm up early reading that one. I get up a

821
00:41:20,239 --> 00:41:22,640
Speaker 3: little before the sunrise because I don't want to see

822
00:41:22,719 --> 00:41:25,160
Speaker 3: the next day without reading that website you mentioned.

823
00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:30,040
Speaker 1: You talked about Kentucky Freedom Forum Health News KFF. Knowing

824
00:41:30,440 --> 00:41:35,760
Speaker 1: I have uh mad scientist kind of moments happened fairly

825
00:41:35,840 --> 00:41:39,480
Speaker 1: often for nano engineer Carson Bruns. A few months ago

826
00:41:39,520 --> 00:41:42,279
Speaker 1: in his lab at the University of Colorado, Boulder, he

827
00:41:42,400 --> 00:41:45,520
Speaker 1: tested his latest invention on his own arm and asked

828
00:41:45,520 --> 00:41:48,479
Speaker 1: a colleague for help. We were like, Okay, we're gonna

829
00:41:48,520 --> 00:41:51,840
Speaker 1: tattoo ourselves. Can you help us today? He said that

830
00:41:51,960 --> 00:41:54,640
Speaker 1: tattoo is like a freckle, a little blue dot, but

831
00:41:54,760 --> 00:41:58,040
Speaker 1: he can turn it on and off. Like the way

832
00:41:58,080 --> 00:42:02,480
Speaker 1: a mood ring changes color with temperature. This tattoo changes

833
00:42:02,520 --> 00:42:06,759
Speaker 1: with light. Ultraviolet turns it on, and daylight or even

834
00:42:06,760 --> 00:42:10,920
Speaker 1: a flashlight turns it off. Isn't this amazing? Sign me up?

835
00:42:11,040 --> 00:42:15,920
Speaker 1: Sign me up. Love that you can go to court

836
00:42:15,960 --> 00:42:17,800
Speaker 1: and turn it off, and then go to the party

837
00:42:17,840 --> 00:42:20,439
Speaker 1: and turn it on, and then go to Grandma's house

838
00:42:20,440 --> 00:42:22,600
Speaker 1: and turn it off, said Bruns, who is affiliated with

839
00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:26,080
Speaker 1: the university's Atlas Institute, which prides itself on frosting out

840
00:42:26,080 --> 00:42:27,239
Speaker 1: of the box ideas.

841
00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:28,400
Speaker 2: Great idea.

842
00:42:28,719 --> 00:42:31,400
Speaker 1: Bruns started a company with tattoo artists to the stars.

843
00:42:31,480 --> 00:42:34,200
Speaker 1: Keith bang Bang mccurty classic.

844
00:42:36,480 --> 00:42:38,920
Speaker 3: Keith McCurdy is kind of a silly name. Anyways, throw

845
00:42:39,000 --> 00:42:40,000
Speaker 3: that bang Bang in there.

846
00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:43,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a classic limit that's it's a hilarious name.

847
00:42:44,200 --> 00:42:47,319
Speaker 1: Along with a former doctoral student. Early next year, they

848
00:42:47,320 --> 00:42:49,640
Speaker 1: plan to release their first product, Magic Ink, to a

849
00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:53,359
Speaker 1: group of handpicked artists. The business partners have long term

850
00:42:53,400 --> 00:42:57,840
Speaker 1: hopes for smart tattoos that have a health value, but

851
00:42:58,000 --> 00:43:00,600
Speaker 1: cosmetics are cheaper and simpler to get to consumers the

852
00:43:00,600 --> 00:43:04,200
Speaker 1: medical devices, so that's where they're starting. The new ink

853
00:43:04,360 --> 00:43:06,719
Speaker 1: will enter a market in a moment of flux for

854
00:43:06,760 --> 00:43:09,760
Speaker 1: the regulation of cosmetics. This is a whole thing about

855
00:43:09,840 --> 00:43:14,400
Speaker 1: the FDA and how the FDA has never regulated tattoo

856
00:43:14,480 --> 00:43:18,840
Speaker 1: inc oh like, tattoo inches don't even have to be sterile,

857
00:43:18,880 --> 00:43:19,760
Speaker 1: which is crazy.

858
00:43:20,160 --> 00:43:20,960
Speaker 2: That's horrifying.

859
00:43:21,080 --> 00:43:26,200
Speaker 1: It is horrifying. But the Modernization of Cosmetics Regulation Act

860
00:43:26,239 --> 00:43:29,640
Speaker 1: of twenty twenty two, the FDA is expanding its authority

861
00:43:29,680 --> 00:43:32,920
Speaker 1: over tattoo manufacturers. I'm sure all the tattoo artists who

862
00:43:32,920 --> 00:43:38,360
Speaker 1: listen to bananas have some opinions on that. To be

863
00:43:38,400 --> 00:43:40,520
Speaker 1: honest with you, I don't think either the FDA or

864
00:43:40,560 --> 00:43:42,440
Speaker 1: the tattoo ink industry really knows what it's going to

865
00:43:42,480 --> 00:43:44,919
Speaker 1: look like. This is again all this about blah blah

866
00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:45,440
Speaker 1: blah blah.

867
00:43:45,280 --> 00:43:48,360
Speaker 2: Blah, super boring shit. Don't care about.

868
00:43:48,440 --> 00:43:51,280
Speaker 1: We want to talk about tattoo you turn on and off,

869
00:43:51,400 --> 00:43:55,680
Speaker 1: Bruns said. Magic ink is made of particles of dye

870
00:43:56,440 --> 00:44:03,480
Speaker 1: encased in beads of plexiglass, the same polymethyl methyl arklate

871
00:44:03,680 --> 00:44:07,880
Speaker 1: material in those dermal fillers people use to plump their lips.

872
00:44:08,600 --> 00:44:11,360
Speaker 3: Dermal fillers just looks so natural and good. I can't

873
00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:12,960
Speaker 3: wait to see these tattoos.

874
00:44:13,080 --> 00:44:16,480
Speaker 1: But wait until you can turn on your your lips

875
00:44:16,520 --> 00:44:20,880
Speaker 1: with a fluorescent light. You could pump them up and

876
00:44:20,880 --> 00:44:22,759
Speaker 1: then pump them back down when you want to go

877
00:44:23,560 --> 00:44:31,480
Speaker 1: a little less lippy to the parks. Wow, the future

878
00:44:31,560 --> 00:44:35,920
Speaker 1: is gonna be fucking ape shit, Swears said. Many of

879
00:44:35,920 --> 00:44:37,880
Speaker 1: the tattooed pingments and use now have been around for

880
00:44:37,880 --> 00:44:40,160
Speaker 1: a long time, which could some user a base comfort

881
00:44:40,239 --> 00:44:43,320
Speaker 1: level about their safety. But any new material comes with

882
00:44:43,400 --> 00:44:45,640
Speaker 1: unknown So if someone's gonna get tattooed with magic ink,

883
00:44:45,680 --> 00:44:49,000
Speaker 1: they have to accept a degree of uncertainty about what

884
00:44:49,040 --> 00:44:52,480
Speaker 1: the future is gonna hold. With that. Yeah, I'd say so,

885
00:44:53,120 --> 00:44:57,520
Speaker 1: I'd say, so you'd have a you'd have a an ink,

886
00:44:57,560 --> 00:44:59,520
Speaker 1: a tattoo ink that you can turn on and off

887
00:45:00,239 --> 00:45:03,319
Speaker 1: that Scotty and I just realized, well, I don't know

888
00:45:03,320 --> 00:45:06,520
Speaker 1: if we've talked about it extensively, but on the first

889
00:45:06,560 --> 00:45:10,520
Speaker 1: episode of Bananas, I asked Scotty, I said, if this,

890
00:45:10,760 --> 00:45:14,799
Speaker 1: if this podcast becomes successful, and I and I use

891
00:45:14,880 --> 00:45:19,560
Speaker 1: some like, I don't know, twenty five thousand subscribers, which

892
00:45:19,600 --> 00:45:22,400
Speaker 1: we've we've gone pa blew by it.

893
00:45:22,600 --> 00:45:24,760
Speaker 2: Back then, I had no idea.

894
00:45:24,800 --> 00:45:27,000
Speaker 3: I thought we'd have a solid core of two thousand

895
00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:28,160
Speaker 3: people listening, and.

896
00:45:28,239 --> 00:45:32,319
Speaker 1: Yeah, it exploded and and I said, if we get

897
00:45:32,440 --> 00:45:37,439
Speaker 1: twenty five thousand subscribers, what like, what would you what

898
00:45:37,480 --> 00:45:40,560
Speaker 1: tattoo would you do of? And he said, go ahead, Scotti.

899
00:45:41,000 --> 00:45:43,640
Speaker 3: I won a tiny draft that starts on the outside

900
00:45:43,640 --> 00:45:46,040
Speaker 3: of my ankle and its neck goes all the way

901
00:45:46,120 --> 00:45:49,080
Speaker 3: up my entire body of wraps around my leg but

902
00:45:49,320 --> 00:45:51,719
Speaker 3: torso and goes all the way up to it feeds

903
00:45:51,760 --> 00:45:53,960
Speaker 3: on a little plant behind one of my ears.

904
00:45:55,200 --> 00:46:00,239
Speaker 1: And someone did it someone, So Scotty never got that too,

905
00:46:00,640 --> 00:46:03,440
Speaker 1: because it's like I'm not actually going to get a tattoo.

906
00:46:03,560 --> 00:46:06,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was betting on the house on that one.

907
00:46:06,560 --> 00:46:09,799
Speaker 3: I'm like, there's no way this podcast takes off. Turns

908
00:46:09,800 --> 00:46:13,719
Speaker 3: out it was a sad year. People needed a little

909
00:46:13,760 --> 00:46:18,360
Speaker 3: bananas in their life back then, and we had a listener. Yeah,

910
00:46:18,400 --> 00:46:21,520
Speaker 3: go ahead, and she well, and I sent you the

911
00:46:21,560 --> 00:46:24,759
Speaker 3: photos and that Katie Levine, the photos are wonderful, producer.

912
00:46:25,800 --> 00:46:30,280
Speaker 3: Somebody got that tattoo of a tiny, skinny giraffe whose

913
00:46:30,400 --> 00:46:33,680
Speaker 3: neck goes from ankle to behind the ear where it

914
00:46:33,719 --> 00:46:34,120
Speaker 3: eats some.

915
00:46:34,160 --> 00:46:36,800
Speaker 1: Leaves, leads a little leaf behind his ear.

916
00:46:37,120 --> 00:46:40,239
Speaker 3: And I can go back in the dms and emails

917
00:46:40,280 --> 00:46:42,959
Speaker 3: and find it. But let me find that Bananama again.

918
00:46:43,000 --> 00:46:44,520
Speaker 3: If it is you who sent it to me, and

919
00:46:44,560 --> 00:46:47,240
Speaker 3: you're still paying attention to the podcast, dm us, because

920
00:46:47,239 --> 00:46:50,200
Speaker 3: we want permission, because I'm sure people will want to see.

921
00:46:50,280 --> 00:46:54,560
Speaker 1: I mean it is, it's wild. It's wild, and I

922
00:46:54,680 --> 00:46:57,640
Speaker 1: believe he got it in order to try and win

923
00:46:57,800 --> 00:47:01,080
Speaker 1: a bananimal back. I think that they had broken up

924
00:47:01,400 --> 00:47:02,920
Speaker 1: and he was like, what can I do to get

925
00:47:02,920 --> 00:47:07,000
Speaker 1: her back? I'll get this tattoo, the ultimate tattoo. It's

926
00:47:07,040 --> 00:47:10,040
Speaker 1: the tattoo that changes lives and brings couples together. Also,

927
00:47:10,280 --> 00:47:11,680
Speaker 1: I mean, I guess if I could get one that

928
00:47:11,719 --> 00:47:13,400
Speaker 1: I could turn on and off with like a switch,

929
00:47:13,520 --> 00:47:17,120
Speaker 1: maybe I would get Maybe I would get it. I

930
00:47:17,200 --> 00:47:20,399
Speaker 1: mean wild, totally wild.

931
00:47:20,560 --> 00:47:22,600
Speaker 3: I mean somebody really did get a few people had

932
00:47:22,680 --> 00:47:24,720
Speaker 3: drawn it on like we had some people get temporary

933
00:47:24,760 --> 00:47:28,000
Speaker 3: tattoos of it. But then we did get sent ankle

935
00:47:32,160 --> 00:47:34,839
Speaker 3: first ten episodes of the podcast, we talked about it.

936
00:47:35,080 --> 00:47:38,080

00:48:20,880 --> 00:48:25,080
Speaker 3: But that is really cool. Like somebody showed me a

956
00:48:25,120 --> 00:48:28,279
Speaker 3: car that can change colors, Like BMW has like a

957
00:48:28,360 --> 00:48:31,120
Speaker 3: skin on their car where it can be white or

958
00:48:31,200 --> 00:48:34,200
Speaker 3: black or gray, I think, And you can literally change

959
00:48:34,239 --> 00:48:35,680
Speaker 3: the whole color of your car. And people are like,

960
00:48:35,719 --> 00:48:38,239
Speaker 3: that's dumb, and I'm like, when they figure that out,

961
00:48:38,760 --> 00:48:40,279
Speaker 3: every single person will want that.

962
00:48:42,560 --> 00:48:44,799
Speaker 1: I always thought because there was a video online of

963
00:48:45,160 --> 00:48:47,680
Speaker 1: some car and it was like changing colors as the

964
00:48:47,680 --> 00:48:52,440
Speaker 1: camera was moving around it. And then and then I

965
00:48:52,480 --> 00:48:56,879
Speaker 1: came to find out that it's literally a video from

966
00:48:57,080 --> 00:49:02,160

00:49:02,200 --> 00:49:03,880
Speaker 1: like trying to learn how to like change the colors

968
00:49:03,880 --> 00:49:05,960

Speaker 3: Okay, well, we definitely can. It's I used to go

986
00:49:51,600 --> 00:49:53,440
Speaker 3: to Gettysburg so much I got bored of it. That's

987
00:49:53,440 --> 00:49:54,759
Speaker 3: what growing up in Maryland.

988
00:49:54,440 --> 00:49:54,920
Speaker 1: Will do to you.

989
00:49:54,960 --> 00:49:57,319
Speaker 3: Every like every two years to school's like we're going

990
00:49:57,320 --> 00:49:58,160
Speaker 3: to Gettysburg and.

991
00:49:58,120 --> 00:50:01,319
Speaker 1: You're like, but why they're all dead?

992
00:50:03,920 --> 00:50:04,960
Speaker 2: This was I'm speaking of.

993
00:50:05,040 --> 00:50:07,760
Speaker 3: This was on why dot Org All right perfect, written

994
00:50:07,760 --> 00:50:10,520
Speaker 3: by Sarah Stewart, who loves cat news.

995
00:50:12,280 --> 00:50:15,439
Speaker 2: She's so good at what she does. Before cats ruled

996
00:50:15,440 --> 00:50:17,200
Speaker 2: the internet, the felines ran the battlefield.

997
00:50:17,440 --> 00:50:17,839
Speaker 1: At least.

998
00:50:17,920 --> 00:50:21,520
Speaker 3: That's history is told by Gettysburg's Civil War Tales and

999
00:50:21,640 --> 00:50:27,359
Speaker 3: Homestead Diorama Museum. The museum features painstakingly detailed miniatures, and

1000
00:50:27,400 --> 00:50:32,200
Speaker 3: the photos are incredible that portray pivotal battle moments using

1001
00:50:32,280 --> 00:50:38,880
Speaker 3: handmade clay cat figurines. So yeah, it's paid sacredly detailed

1002
00:50:38,920 --> 00:50:42,560
Speaker 3: miniature scenes that portray pivotal battle moments using handmade clay

1003
00:50:42,560 --> 00:50:46,960
Speaker 3: cat figurines, eight thousand of them in counting Rebecca and

1004
00:50:47,080 --> 00:50:50,160
Speaker 3: Ruth Brown, the twin sister co owners of Civil War Tales.

1005
00:50:50,280 --> 00:50:54,520
Speaker 3: That's tai. Of course, we're gearing up for their annual

1006
00:50:54,560 --> 00:50:58,120
Speaker 3: Labor Day scavenger hunt. When Rebecca spoke with Pennsylvania Local

1007
00:50:58,400 --> 00:51:02,880
Speaker 3: in late August, they have visitors intently studying their dioramas

1008
00:51:02,880 --> 00:51:05,799
Speaker 3: to find quotes, facts and items within the scene. But

1009
00:51:05,880 --> 00:51:07,399
Speaker 3: we try to make it a mix so the kids

1010
00:51:07,440 --> 00:51:10,319
Speaker 3: and non history buffs can do it too. But it's

1011
00:51:10,360 --> 00:51:12,880
Speaker 3: not too easy for history buffs, said Rebecca.

1012
00:51:13,200 --> 00:51:13,720
Speaker 2: No idea.

1013
00:51:14,640 --> 00:51:18,400
Speaker 3: So the Browns opened their museum in twenty fifteen. Labor

1014
00:51:18,400 --> 00:51:22,320
Speaker 3: of Love dates back to the sisters childhood in suburban Philadelphia,

1015
00:51:22,760 --> 00:51:25,800
Speaker 3: where homeschool to eleven year olds became captivated by Civil

1016
00:51:25,840 --> 00:51:26,400
Speaker 3: War books.

1017
00:51:27,440 --> 00:51:27,840
Speaker 2: Quote.

1018
00:51:27,920 --> 00:51:31,680
Speaker 3: I've read biographies on General's Lee and Grant, said Rebecca,

1019
00:51:31,840 --> 00:51:34,880
Speaker 3: and since then I made them out of clay. Cats,

1020
00:51:34,920 --> 00:51:38,719
Speaker 3: she explains, were just easier to sculpt than people. We've

1021
00:51:38,760 --> 00:51:41,640
Speaker 3: always had cats as pets. Everything we did was cats,

1022
00:51:41,640 --> 00:51:43,680
Speaker 3: she said. So when I made Lee and Grant, they

1023
00:51:43,760 --> 00:51:47,240
Speaker 3: just automatically came out as cats and a hobby was born.

1024
00:51:47,440 --> 00:51:51,360
Speaker 3: Both sisters began making hordes of feline soldiers in high school.

1025
00:51:51,360 --> 00:51:55,400
Speaker 3: They use their figurines to teach other homeschooled kids about.

1026
00:51:55,160 --> 00:51:55,719
Speaker 1: The Civil War.

1027
00:51:55,719 --> 00:51:59,960
Speaker 2: Wowk wow, it's so great. The Browns of Kurr.

1028
00:52:00,360 --> 00:52:03,480
Speaker 3: The Browns currently have close to a dozen dior Amazon display.

1029
00:52:03,560 --> 00:52:07,200
Speaker 3: Each consists of a landscape reproducing a Civil War moment wow,

1030
00:52:07,440 --> 00:52:11,160
Speaker 3: with buildings and nature elements. Two scale of course, and

1031
00:52:11,280 --> 00:52:14,759
Speaker 3: one one inch tall cat for each soldier, so one

1032
00:52:14,760 --> 00:52:17,959
Speaker 3: inch tall little kid. He is dressed as Union or

1033
00:52:18,719 --> 00:52:22,920
Speaker 3: Rebel soldiers. Their biggest project depicts Little Round Top Battle,

1034
00:52:23,000 --> 00:52:25,440
Speaker 3: which is a huge battle on the second day of

1035
00:52:25,440 --> 00:52:28,640
Speaker 3: the fighting in Gettysburg. And it's been ten years in

1036
00:52:28,719 --> 00:52:32,239
Speaker 3: the making. I mean, we're gonna go. I'm gonna go.

1037
00:52:32,400 --> 00:52:37,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, where is it in Maryland? Somewhere? It's in Gettysburg, Gettysburg, Virginia, Pennsylvania,

1038
00:52:37,320 --> 00:52:38,480
Speaker 1: Pennsylvan Pennsylvania.

1039
00:52:38,560 --> 00:52:41,279
Speaker 3: Okay, see robbery lee. His blood was running hot. He

1040
00:52:41,320 --> 00:52:43,440
Speaker 3: thought if he could attack the north and take him

1041
00:52:43,440 --> 00:52:45,200
Speaker 3: out there, but he should have stayed in the south.

1042
00:52:45,320 --> 00:52:49,600
Speaker 2: He blew it. I went so many times.

1043
00:52:49,239 --> 00:52:50,799
Speaker 1: It's crazy. I have a funny story.

1044
00:52:50,840 --> 00:52:53,399
Speaker 3: I'll tell a different episode with my uncle that made

1045
00:52:53,400 --> 00:52:56,800
Speaker 3: me run pickets, charge and then told me I was dead.

1046
00:52:59,239 --> 00:52:59,680
Speaker 1: Right now.

1047
00:52:59,719 --> 00:53:02,680
Speaker 3: There are two thousand cavalry cats in the scene. That

1048
00:53:02,719 --> 00:53:06,400
Speaker 3: can take ten to fifteen minutes to make each cat.

1049
00:53:06,800 --> 00:53:10,239
Speaker 3: The Sisters continue to update their dioramas while it's on display.

1050
00:53:10,880 --> 00:53:14,279
Speaker 3: The Browns keep their depictions of carnage family friendly, which

1051
00:53:14,320 --> 00:53:16,200
Speaker 3: is a bummer for some of us, but good for

1052
00:53:16,280 --> 00:53:16,920
Speaker 3: most of us.

1053
00:53:18,040 --> 00:53:21,200
Speaker 1: Originally, if you have us like kittens with spears, like

1054
00:53:21,440 --> 00:53:23,600
Speaker 1: band nets through their neck and stuff.

1055
00:53:24,880 --> 00:53:29,200
Speaker 3: Somebody said that I'll skip ahead quote. We had one

1056
00:53:29,239 --> 00:53:31,440
Speaker 3: cat whose head had gotten blown off. I mean his

1057
00:53:31,520 --> 00:53:35,200
Speaker 3: head was there, it was just next to him. They

1058
00:53:35,280 --> 00:53:38,360
Speaker 3: opted to remove that figure, deeming it a little too graphic,

1059
00:53:38,400 --> 00:53:41,080
Speaker 3: though there were others with missing or severed limbs.

1060
00:53:41,120 --> 00:53:43,879
Speaker 1: All right, it was a dirty war. They don't mess

1061
00:53:43,920 --> 00:53:47,680
Speaker 1: around at the Kitten Museum. More people died of dysentery

1062
00:53:47,760 --> 00:53:50,120
Speaker 1: than of being shot in the Civil War. This is

1063
00:53:50,160 --> 00:53:53,120
Speaker 1: in the article, or you're just saying that I saw.

1064
00:53:54,800 --> 00:53:56,680
Speaker 2: I keep the important facts.

1065
00:53:58,880 --> 00:54:02,520
Speaker 1: There is a ten where the amputations are performed without

1066
00:54:02,680 --> 00:54:04,160
Speaker 1: anti drugs.

1067
00:54:04,719 --> 00:54:09,279
Speaker 3: Biting the bullet comes from that exact experience. So anyways,

1068
00:54:09,480 --> 00:54:12,160
Speaker 3: we have to go a cat themeed Civil War museum.

1069
00:54:12,560 --> 00:54:13,359
Speaker 2: It's got it all.

1070
00:54:13,440 --> 00:54:15,960
Speaker 3: It's fun having cat people who aren't into history because

1071
00:54:15,960 --> 00:54:18,279
Speaker 3: they go home wanting to read more about the Civil War.

1072
00:54:19,080 --> 00:54:21,120
Speaker 1: And it's not fun having people who are into history

1073
00:54:21,160 --> 00:54:26,880
Speaker 1: who are upset about all the cats. We got a go.

1074
00:54:27,719 --> 00:54:30,080
Speaker 1: I love it. You're the bananas of the week. They're

1075
00:54:30,120 --> 00:54:31,080
Speaker 1: the bananas of the week.

1076
00:54:31,200 --> 00:54:36,120
Speaker 3: These two twin homeschooled, cat obsessed Civil War loving sisters,

1077
00:54:36,160 --> 00:54:39,600
Speaker 3: Rebecca and Ruth Brown Helly too, are our first twin

1078
00:54:39,719 --> 00:54:42,279
Speaker 3: bananas of congratulations.

1079
00:54:42,440 --> 00:54:45,080
Speaker 1: Thank you, Scotty for a delightful episode.

1080
00:54:45,440 --> 00:54:46,360
Speaker 2: Always a joy.

1081
00:54:46,480 --> 00:54:48,239
Speaker 3: I'm coming over to your house tomorrow so we can

00:54:48,280 --> 00:54:50,080
Speaker 3: record some bonus soodes together.

1083
00:54:50,400 --> 00:54:51,120
Speaker 1: So excited.

1084
00:54:51,840 --> 00:54:53,600
Speaker 3: And then you and I are doing a dude's night

1085
00:54:53,680 --> 00:54:55,440
Speaker 3: out with a couple of other dudes on Friday.

1086
00:54:55,480 --> 00:54:58,160
Speaker 1: We might have a couple of drinks. We might have

1087
00:54:58,200 --> 00:55:01,520
Speaker 1: a couple of drinks. We're literally going to the closest

1088
00:55:01,520 --> 00:55:04,160
Speaker 1: that you can imagine as the suburbs to do a

1089
00:55:04,200 --> 00:55:07,359
Speaker 1: bar crawl. I think there's only one bar. I think

1090
00:55:07,400 --> 00:55:09,879
Speaker 1: it's a bar and a chili's.

1091
00:55:09,239 --> 00:55:13,240
