1 00:00:01,320 --> 00:00:04,640 Speaker 1: Rarely do I come across crazy facts and tell you 2 00:00:04,720 --> 00:00:06,840 Speaker 1: all about them, because a lot of times I just 3 00:00:06,920 --> 00:00:07,920 Speaker 1: keep them all to myself. 4 00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:11,120 Speaker 2: Oh okay, a lot of crazy bats. 5 00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:14,400 Speaker 1: My mom calls me a fact horder, and I just 6 00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:16,040 Speaker 1: sit up in my room with the door locked and 7 00:00:16,079 --> 00:00:21,200 Speaker 1: I play with all my facts. But today I'm gonna 8 00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:24,040 Speaker 1: share one with you that I thought was actually pretty fascinating. 9 00:00:24,680 --> 00:00:27,920 Speaker 1: So you've all heard of kryptonite from Superman. 10 00:00:28,360 --> 00:00:31,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like his weakness or whatever. It's the only 11 00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:31,600 Speaker 2: thing that can. 12 00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:34,160 Speaker 1: Defeat him, the green glowing crystal, and when it's close 13 00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:37,159 Speaker 1: to him, it saffs all of his energy and his strength. Yeah, 14 00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:40,640 Speaker 1: it turns out the idea of kryptonite was invented way 15 00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:43,160 Speaker 1: back when there used to be a live Superman radio 16 00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:46,199 Speaker 1: show and there was one main actor who played the 17 00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:49,519 Speaker 1: role of Superman, and whenever he took a vacation, he 18 00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:52,920 Speaker 1: couldn't voice any lines. Kryptonite would magically show up in 19 00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:56,360 Speaker 1: the story, so whoever was filling in didn't have to 20 00:00:56,400 --> 00:01:00,920 Speaker 1: say anything. They could just groan in pain through the 21 00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:01,720 Speaker 1: whole episode. 22 00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:05,040 Speaker 2: Dude, that'd be so awesome. Then we could take more vacation. 23 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:07,640 Speaker 1: I know, we can learn a lot from these radio legends. 24 00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:11,000 Speaker 1: So next week I plan to take off a little 25 00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:13,039 Speaker 1: bit for a vacation, and I know we're recording this. 26 00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:19,280 Speaker 1: So on Monday, you can use this. Just pop that 27 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:20,679 Speaker 1: into like a second date or something. 28 00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:22,960 Speaker 2: Okay, sounds like such an old man. 29 00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:25,160 Speaker 1: On Tuesday, use this one. 30 00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:28,759 Speaker 2: Oh no, I. 31 00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:30,240 Speaker 3: Go way up. 32 00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:33,920 Speaker 1: We'll put that one in an awkward call the morning. 33 00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:40,640 Speaker 1: And on Wednesday, I'm really feeling like that one was 34 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:42,800 Speaker 1: too much for me. I don't think I even make 35 00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:45,480 Speaker 1: it to Friday. I know, but you're gonna have to 36 00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:48,320 Speaker 1: tune in to find out. 37 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:49,040 Speaker 3: We have to come to work. 38 00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:51,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, you guys have to be here, man, but I'll 39 00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:54,920 Speaker 1: be off anyway. Now, I feel like we've accomplished a 40 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:57,000 Speaker 1: lot already. We're already working ahead of the next week. 41 00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 2: I'm looking forward to just the groans. 42 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:02,400 Speaker 1: I think a lot of our listeners are actually so 43 00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:05,280 Speaker 1: good news for everybody.

We're gonna air a replay question because 51 00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 4: it's considered recycled content. I wish I'm being forced to 52 00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:40,000 Speaker 4: ask a new one, but I don't feel good about 53 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:43,680 Speaker 4: doing this the environment. We're going to call it the 54 00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:49,360 Speaker 4: brand new recycled, eco friendly one and done shot caller.

Cardboard, plastic, glass, paper, 58 00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 4: and aluminum. We're gonna go around the room and I'll 59 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,080 Speaker 4: tell you a fact and you have to tell me 60 00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:09,120 Speaker 4: which one of those materials I'm talking about. Oh and 61 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:11,120 Speaker 4: we could choose the same one more than once, so 62 00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:14,519 Speaker 4: be on your toes. We're gonna start with Alexis. Originally 63 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:15,959 Speaker 4: I was gonna ask you to read the words in 64 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:19,000 Speaker 4: the sheet of paper in front of Producer BOYD said 65 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:21,160 Speaker 4: you might have a hard time sounding out the word aluminum, 66 00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 4: so we're gonna have a different question. Approximately one hundred 67 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:27,160 Speaker 4: billion of these are produced each year in North America alone, 68 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:29,800 Speaker 4: and if you can recycle one ton of it, that 69 00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:33,720 Speaker 4: would save forty six gallons of oil each time. What 70 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:34,359 Speaker 4: is it? 71 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:38,080 Speaker 2: Oh? Brooke said, Oh, like you know it easily. I 72 00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:40,240 Speaker 2: mean it could be oil in a different way. But 73 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:43,280 Speaker 2: like for me when I'm thinking oil, plastic needs oil 74 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:44,160 Speaker 2: to be made. 75 00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:45,680 Speaker 3: I didn't know that. 76 00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:46,160 Speaker 2: Yeah. 77 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 3: Either. 78 00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:51,120 Speaker 1: One hundred billions. That's a lot. I mean there's a 79 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:52,080 Speaker 1: lot of plastic out there. 80 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 4: You know. 81 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:54,960 Speaker 2: Brooke was really excited about recycling stuff, So I'm gonna 82 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:56,960 Speaker 2: go with her answer and say, plastic bottles. 83 00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:59,280 Speaker 4: If you recycled one ton of this, you would save 84 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:01,920 Speaker 4: forty six gallons of oil each time. I'm talking about 85 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 4: cardboard boxes. Why oil? 86 00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 2: Why would you save oil? 87 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:09,400 Speaker 4: I'm not a scientist, so let's move on. 88 00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:12,320 Speaker 3: You broke your next Okay, it'll be fun. 89 00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 4: The person has the opportunity to recycle more than twenty 90 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:19,000 Speaker 4: five thousand of this item in their lifetime five thousand, 91 00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:22,440 Speaker 4: and normally less than a quarter of that actually gets recycled. 92 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:23,640 Speaker 4: What is it? 93 00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:27,280 Speaker 2: I would say aluminum cans is my first thought, and 94 00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:29,480 Speaker 2: a lot of people don't recycle them. They just throw 95 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:30,680 Speaker 2: them away instead. 96 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:34,520 Speaker 1: That's like a soda every day, Not. 97 00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:39,760 Speaker 2: A soda, it's like. 98 00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:43,039 Speaker 3: White clay. 99 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:47,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, for it.
