One of this is from uh is 288 00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:32,120 Speaker 1: Publishing medium and the title was written by Nicole Henley 289 00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:37,400 Speaker 1: BitB published in March seventh of twenty nineteen, and I 290 00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:39,800 Speaker 1: looked it up. All of this is true. New York 291 00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:42,760 Speaker 1: Times covered a bunch of different places covered the medium. 292 00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:45,520 Speaker 1: This medium article, I think does a great job explaining it. 293 00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:49,920 Speaker 1: The title is, Yes, the blobs that fell from the sky. 294 00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:51,920 Speaker 3: Huh, here we go. 295 00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:52,960 Speaker 2: I'm gonna have to write a bit. 296 00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:55,320 Speaker 3: That was it. I thought it found it. I thought 297 00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:56,560 Speaker 3: there's a semicolon comma. 298 00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:58,840 Speaker 2: No, it is the blobs that fell from the sky. 299 00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:02,680 Speaker 1: On August eleventh, nineteen ninety four, a rainstorm unlike any 300 00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:05,680 Speaker 1: other descended upon the city of Oakville, Washington, with a 301 00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:08,400 Speaker 1: population of seven hundred and twenty three. So we're in 302 00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:11,600 Speaker 1: the middle of nowhere here unleashing not rain drops, but 303 00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:16,000 Speaker 1: rather these mysteriously translucent and gelatinous blobs. 304 00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:16,560 Speaker 3: Wow. 305 00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:20,120 Speaker 1: The blob rain reportedly came down in torrents and covered 306 00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:23,520 Speaker 1: as much as twenty square miles. Anyone within the vicinity 307 00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:27,960 Speaker 1: of the strange rain came down with severe flu like symptoms. 308 00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:31,640 Speaker 1: A police officer, David Lacey, was on patrol with a 309 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:34,200 Speaker 1: civilian friend when the blobs began raining down at three 310 00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:36,400 Speaker 1: in the morning. Quote, we turned on our windshield wipers 311 00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:38,720 Speaker 1: and it just started smearing to the point where we 312 00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:40,680 Speaker 1: could not see. We both looked at each other and 313 00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:43,280 Speaker 1: we said, Jesus, this isn't right. I mean, we're out 314 00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:45,160 Speaker 1: in the middle of nowhere basically, and where did this 315 00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:47,840 Speaker 1: come from. 316 00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:51,760 Speaker 3: Guy's very succinct. He's saying exactly what I would say, 317 00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:55,680 Speaker 3: Where the heck did these come from? 318 00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:59,400 Speaker 1: So meanwhile, the blobs fell from the sky elsewhere roughly 319 00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:02,400 Speaker 1: half the grains of rice at the farm home of 320 00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:07,960 Speaker 1: Sunny Barclift. Shortly afterwards, Barcleft's mother, Dottie Hearn, was hospitalized 321 00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:11,440 Speaker 1: for dizziness and nausea. Barclift herself, as well as a friend, 322 00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:15,360 Speaker 1: also experienced minor episodes of fatigue and nausea after handling 323 00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:19,960 Speaker 1: the blobs themselves. What yeah, And despite this, the doctor 324 00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:23,240 Speaker 1: retreated Barcliff's mother. Doctor David Little expressed his doubt that 325 00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:25,560 Speaker 1: these blobs were the cause of the symptoms. Instead, they 326 00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:30,280 Speaker 1: could have resulted from an interior condition whatever he says. Okay, Overall, 327 00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:32,920 Speaker 1: I'm skipping around in the article. Overall, the blobs rained 328 00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:37,880 Speaker 1: down on Oakville six times in three weeks. According to 329 00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:43,000 Speaker 1: some sources, dozens of people got sick. Moreover, several dogs 330 00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:47,800 Speaker 1: and cats died after coming into contact with it. Wow, okay, 331 00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:51,160 Speaker 1: so we got a mystery on our hands. Nineteen ninety four. 332 00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:55,480 Speaker 1: Unsolved Mysteries actually did a huge piece on this. 333 00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:56,640 Speaker 2: In the late nineties. 334 00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:59,520 Speaker 3: I was such a great showback then. Boy, it's scared 335 00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:01,960 Speaker 3: the pant. When I was a kid, that show scared 336 00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:04,640 Speaker 3: me to Robert Stack. I think it was the host 337 00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:10,240 Speaker 3: coming out of the smoke in the trench coat, so creepy, right. 338 00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:12,399 Speaker 1: It was like a black room and a smoke machine, 339 00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:13,840 Speaker 1: and he just came out with a trench coat. 340 00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:15,000 Speaker 2: And in the nineties you could just do. 341 00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:17,560 Speaker 1: That's all you needed. And you're just like, I'm in 342 00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:23,240 Speaker 1: what is this television? I'm yes, wow, okay, six times okay. 343 00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:25,080 Speaker 2: In one attenest. So this is there's a lot of 344 00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:25,560 Speaker 2: stuff here. 345 00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:28,800 Speaker 1: In one attempt to identify the substance, the blobs were 346 00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:33,840 Speaker 1: reported to contain human white blood cells. Upon further investigation 347 00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:38,399 Speaker 1: by the Washington State Department of Ecologies Hazardous Material Spill 348 00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:41,800 Speaker 1: Response Unit, these cells from the blobs were also found 349 00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:43,600 Speaker 1: to have no nuclei. 350 00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:47,080 Speaker 2: So a bunch of theories are out there. 351 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:50,399 Speaker 1: One theory is that the military was doing bombing in 352 00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:53,679 Speaker 1: the Pacific Ocean and they hid a huge thing of 353 00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:57,960 Speaker 1: jellyfish and that up into the atmosphere and then rained 354 00:17:58,000 --> 00:17:58,800 Speaker 1: down on these people. 355 00:17:58,800 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 2: But that does not seeks. 356 00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:03,320 Speaker 1: That does not explain any of the illnesses or the 357 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:06,879 Speaker 1: cats and dogs dying. Okay, so most people do not 358 00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:08,679 Speaker 1: believe that theory. 359 00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:09,680 Speaker 2: Uh. 360 00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:13,520 Speaker 1: The next theory that was proposed by doctor Little. This dude, 361 00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:16,840 Speaker 1: doctor Little sucks. He says the blobs were results of 362 00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:21,080 Speaker 1: concentrated fluid race from a passing airplane toilet. But immediately 363 00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:23,120 Speaker 1: in my mind, I was like, no, because all airplane 364 00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:26,240 Speaker 1: toilet waste is colored blue. And that's what the FAA 365 00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:28,920 Speaker 1: said in nineteen ninety four. You just had those chemical toilets, 366 00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:30,440 Speaker 1: you flesh them, the blue stuff. 367 00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:31,080 Speaker 2: Would go down. 368 00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:32,200 Speaker 3: Sound fun? 369 00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:35,040 Speaker 2: And now here it is. This is the this is 370 00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:36,360 Speaker 2: the main main thing. 371 00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:41,560 Speaker 1: So this this, this person essentially takes them, takes the samples, 372 00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:45,560 Speaker 1: and this is like a very very long uh you. 373 00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:46,200 Speaker 2: Know, hurt. 374 00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:49,520 Speaker 1: She got sick, her mom got sick, her kitten died, 375 00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:51,360 Speaker 1: so she took to her samples. 376 00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:54,440 Speaker 2: Yes, uh, she says. 377 00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:56,760 Speaker 1: I was concerned about the material and spoke with doctor 378 00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:59,760 Speaker 1: Kobayashi at the Washington State Health Laboratory. 379 00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:01,800 Speaker 3: Okay, crazy, this sounds legit. 380 00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:02,400 Speaker 2: Yeah. 381 00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:04,400 Speaker 1: He advised me to send a sample of the material 382 00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:07,800 Speaker 1: mail to Sample of Washington State Health Lab which was 383 00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:11,119 Speaker 1: assigned where it was assigned to Mike McDowell, who was 384 00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:15,080 Speaker 1: an epidemiologist on staff. Mike initially set up the gel. 385 00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:17,840 Speaker 1: Set the gel up on bacterial media to see if 386 00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:20,240 Speaker 1: it would grow anything. It grew two types of bacteria, 387 00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:22,120 Speaker 1: and then it names the bacteria. 388 00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:23,320 Speaker 3: I don't know what, Okay. 389 00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:27,119 Speaker 1: At some point he drew the conclusion this is just 390 00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:29,400 Speaker 1: some guy who works at the Washington State Health Lab, 391 00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:33,000 Speaker 1: that the material itself was man made and was being 392 00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:36,320 Speaker 1: used as a matrix i e. A vehicle capable of 393 00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:41,560 Speaker 1: transporting a virus or a bacteria. Oh yes, he's crazy, right. 394 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:44,919 Speaker 1: And he reported his findings to a supervisor. And this 395 00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:46,439 Speaker 1: is where it gets to the point where you're like, 396 00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:48,359 Speaker 1: what are we Is this real? 397 00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:49,600 Speaker 2: All right? 398 00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:50,919 Speaker 3: Uh? 399 00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:53,199 Speaker 1: When he returned to the lab at some point he 400 00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:56,800 Speaker 1: discovered the substance was missing. Again, he reported this to 401 00:19:56,800 --> 00:19:59,199 Speaker 1: a supervisor and was advised at that point to not 402 00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:03,159 Speaker 1: ask questions. Mike is retired now and still does occasional 403 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:06,840 Speaker 1: interviews regarding this subject and this woman. Where it's I 404 00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:08,600 Speaker 1: trust his judgment and his findings, as he was a 405 00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:11,080 Speaker 1: credible expert in the field. Yeah, he was interviewed by 406 00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:14,600 Speaker 1: National Geographic.

Tim Carmon's on top of it. 697 00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:29,439 Speaker 3: Is this fish? We'll never know unless we said hard 698 00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:33,080 Speaker 3: hitting Tim Carmon, he's got a nose for tuna. 699 00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:36,359 Speaker 2: Oh what's Timmy c say about this? 700 00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:41,760 Speaker 3: Subway describes its tuna sandwich as a quote freshly baked 701 00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:46,160 Speaker 3: bread layered with flaked tuna, blended with creamy mayo. Oh man, 702 00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:49,000 Speaker 3: doesn't even sound good the way they describe it, and 703 00:34:49,080 --> 00:34:53,440 Speaker 3: topped with your choice of crisp fresh veggies. Ooh, you 704 00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:56,400 Speaker 3: know that iceberg lattice at subway is just so crisp, 705 00:34:56,760 --> 00:35:01,360 Speaker 3: so crisp, not rubbery at all. It's a description designed 706 00:35:01,400 --> 00:35:04,960 Speaker 3: to activate the saliva glands and separate you from your money. 707 00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:09,319 Speaker 3: It's also yeah, see that's why they said this guy 708 00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:15,840 Speaker 3: takes no prisoners. Oh, it's also fiction, at least partially. 709 00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:19,200 Speaker 3: According to a recent lawsuit filed by US District Court 710 00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:24,120 Speaker 3: for Northern District of California, never heard of it, complain 711 00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:27,600 Speaker 3: alleges that ingredients build as quote tuna end quote for 712 00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:32,799 Speaker 3: the chains, sandwiches, and wraps contains absolutely no tuna. Only 713 00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:37,320 Speaker 3: a tiny percentage of bluefin or yellowfin tuna is even farmed. 714 00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:40,600 Speaker 3: The star ingredient, according to a lawsuit, is made from 715 00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:47,680 Speaker 3: anything but tuna based on independent lab tests and multi samples. Yeah, fingernails, 716 00:35:48,239 --> 00:35:51,720 Speaker 3: Oh god, I mean maybe you never know these days. 717 00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:57,200 Speaker 3: It's a god. It's a mixture of various concoctions that 718 00:35:57,360 --> 00:36:00,799 Speaker 3: do not constitute tuna, yet have been blend together by 719 00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:05,480 Speaker 3: defendants to imitate the appearance of tuna, according to the complaint. 720 00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:10,520 Speaker 3: Uh Shalini Dagra, one of the attorneys for the plaintiffs, 721 00:36:10,520 --> 00:36:13,400 Speaker 3: declined to say what the exact ingredients are, but the 722 00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:18,720 Speaker 3: lab test did reveal them, so okay, represented for Subway. 723 00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:22,200 Speaker 3: The other the angel on the shoulders. The claims are 724 00:36:22,200 --> 00:36:25,839 Speaker 3: without merit. The tuna sold in the chain is wild caught. 725 00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:29,560 Speaker 3: The company says, uh, which is how I like that. 726 00:36:29,640 --> 00:36:32,440 Speaker 2: They're going further out. They're not. They're doubling down on that. 727 00:36:32,520 --> 00:36:33,400 Speaker 2: I love that that. 728 00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:37,760 Speaker 1: It's not farmed. It's wild caught, pole caught. Each tune 729 00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:42,000 Speaker 1: of each tune of fish per sich person, which said 730 00:36:42,480 --> 00:36:45,680 Speaker 1: Subway right there. Okay, great, I love that. 731 00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:50,000 Speaker 3: Taught to order, absolutely caught to order. If you order 732 00:36:50,040 --> 00:36:52,920 Speaker 3: a tuna's fish five dollars foot long, they send a 733 00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:55,920 Speaker 3: man out in a boat with a fishing rod along Scotty. 734 00:36:55,960 --> 00:36:56,799 Speaker 2: That's ridiculous. 735 00:36:56,840 --> 00:36:58,800 Speaker 1: He's already out in the boat, but his cell phone 736 00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:00,080 Speaker 1: rings and they say, we got. 737 00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:03,000 Speaker 3: Another order for a foot log pal and he's like. 738 00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:05,520 Speaker 1: Just sweating trying to pull it an eight hundred pound 739 00:37:05,600 --> 00:37:08,120 Speaker 1: tuna fish to cut just a turn a piece off 740 00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:11,040 Speaker 1: and then that exit on over to that subry. 741 00:37:11,160 --> 00:37:13,200 Speaker 3: People love it. It's incredible what they do. They do 742 00:37:13,320 --> 00:37:17,319 Speaker 3: tons of work there. So yeah. The two plaintiffs are 743 00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:23,640 Speaker 3: identified as Karen Donawa, Karen Danaua, and Nelima i'm In 744 00:37:23,760 --> 00:37:26,400 Speaker 3: both residents of Alameda County in the Bay Area. But 745 00:37:26,760 --> 00:37:29,680 Speaker 3: attorneys for these two said that their claim is certified 746 00:37:29,680 --> 00:37:32,080 Speaker 3: as a class action, so holding on to those receipts 747 00:37:32,080 --> 00:37:34,799 Speaker 3: and animals. If you've been eating tunut subway or what 748 00:37:34,840 --> 00:37:37,760 Speaker 3: you thought was tunet subway, you might be getting paid 749 00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:42,160 Speaker 3: probably five bucks back. But yeah, anybody that bought it 750 00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:46,800 Speaker 3: after tuna sandwiches and wraps after January twenty first, twenty 751 00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:49,760 Speaker 3: seventeen could be on this class action lawsuit. 752 00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:51,640 Speaker 1: I'm gonna get my dad. I'm gonna get my dad 753 00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:54,520 Speaker 1: in them. My dad ate a tuna fish sandwich from 754 00:37:54,840 --> 00:37:59,080 Speaker 1: subway every day for I think ten years, and he 755 00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:01,520 Speaker 1: was actually saying he was proud of it. He was 756 00:38:01,560 --> 00:38:04,279 Speaker 1: always like, that's why I'm so healthy. That's what he 757 00:38:04,280 --> 00:38:07,759 Speaker 1: would say, because he wow not tuna. Also, I have 758 00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:09,600 Speaker 1: done a deep dive on this article because I was 759 00:38:09,600 --> 00:38:13,120 Speaker 1: thinking about doing it myself. I read the New York Times, 760 00:38:13,120 --> 00:38:15,439 Speaker 1: so the New York Times did cover this as well. 761 00:38:15,960 --> 00:38:18,680 Speaker 1: So essentially everything that they're saying is it's a lawsuit. 762 00:38:18,680 --> 00:38:20,799 Speaker 1: They're alleging it. It's not been proved in court. But 763 00:38:20,920 --> 00:38:22,799 Speaker 1: what the New York Times did was they went to 764 00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:28,040 Speaker 1: multiple different Subway locations, bought multiple different tuna fish sandwiches, 765 00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:31,239 Speaker 1: and then had them sent out to a lab that 766 00:38:31,320 --> 00:38:36,160 Speaker 1: identifies different types of marine species and had all of 767 00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:40,160 Speaker 1: them tested. And what they found was that none of 768 00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:45,839 Speaker 1: them contained tuna DNA. That's crow but with the caveat 769 00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:50,520 Speaker 1: that cooking, that cooking fish degrades its DNA to the 770 00:38:50,520 --> 00:38:53,720 Speaker 1: point where oftentimes you cannot tell what fish a cooked 771 00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:56,560 Speaker 1: fish is, so it could be tuna. And then there's 772 00:38:56,600 --> 00:38:58,319 Speaker 1: an interview with a person who just kind of as 773 00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:01,400 Speaker 1: a manager at Subway, and it's just like, look, tuna 774 00:39:01,640 --> 00:39:05,200 Speaker 1: is the cheapest meat out there. Why are they if 775 00:39:05,239 --> 00:39:08,120 Speaker 1: they're gonna like make a fake meat, why is it 776 00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:08,680 Speaker 1: the tuna? 777 00:39:08,840 --> 00:39:09,640 Speaker 2: Tuna's cheap? 778 00:39:09,680 --> 00:39:13,400 Speaker 1: Like making that's in tuna would be even more difficult 779 00:39:13,440 --> 00:39:15,879 Speaker 1: and probably caught. It would be cost prohibitive to make 780 00:39:15,920 --> 00:39:19,680 Speaker 1: fake tuna. It seems sounds like it. That's wild. Well 781 00:39:20,200 --> 00:39:22,800 Speaker 1: that's pretty interesting. I mean, who cares. 782 00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:25,720 Speaker 3: I don't think subway is my last fast food choice. 783 00:39:25,920 --> 00:39:29,560 Speaker 3: I don't go. I fine, it's fine. I'm not chitting 784 00:39:29,600 --> 00:39:31,200 Speaker 3: on it. Like if you love it, good for you. 785 00:39:31,239 --> 00:39:33,359 Speaker 3: We're not We're not saying, hey, eat how you want 786 00:39:33,400 --> 00:39:36,160 Speaker 3: to eat? You only go around the carousel wants if you. 787 00:39:36,520 --> 00:39:39,600 Speaker 1: If you want to go and eat a sandwich, It's 788 00:39:39,680 --> 00:39:42,239 Speaker 1: basically a yoga mat wrapped up with a bunch of 789 00:39:43,680 --> 00:39:45,759 Speaker 1: wood shavings flavored like tuna fish. 790 00:39:45,840 --> 00:39:47,000 Speaker 2: You go ahead and you do that. 791 00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:48,719 Speaker 3: Yeah, did you hear that? The bread? 792 00:39:48,719 --> 00:39:51,279 Speaker 1: Their bread was supposed to be mostly yoga mats, like 793 00:39:51,320 --> 00:39:54,280 Speaker 1: the same chemical, and yoga mats was found in their bread. 794 00:39:54,960 --> 00:39:59,960 Speaker 3: Well okay, yeah, well so okay, Now I want to 795 00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:02,040 Speaker 3: yoga mat that looks like a sandwich. I mean, now 796 00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:04,880 Speaker 3: I want a hogi looking yoga mat. I used to 797 00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:08,799 Speaker 3: when I was working at that bike shop. Next door 798 00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:10,839 Speaker 3: was a place called the Newtown Deli. And there's this 799 00:40:10,880 --> 00:40:13,480 Speaker 3: guy called and we all called him Limp Limp Jeremy 800 00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:16,960 Speaker 3: because he wore a corn hat and a Limp biscuit 801 00:40:17,000 --> 00:40:18,680 Speaker 3: shirt every day, like corn the band. 802 00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:21,640 Speaker 1: Oh yeahah yeah, I was imagining like a candy corn hat. 803 00:40:21,680 --> 00:40:23,880 Speaker 1: And I would be like this sounds like a cool dude already. No, 804 00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:28,520 Speaker 1: you would know him, Triangle, you would know him. But 805 00:40:28,680 --> 00:40:31,359 Speaker 1: Limp Jeremy was our age. Went to a rival high 806 00:40:31,400 --> 00:40:33,480 Speaker 1: school and so we all kind of knew each other. 807 00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:35,440 Speaker 1: We'd go over to the bagel place next door, whatever, 808 00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:38,000 Speaker 1: the Dailly next door and vice versa. One and so 809 00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:40,719 Speaker 1: I was sort of like I was sixteen or so, 810 00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:43,240 Speaker 1: probably too young to actually like legally be a manager, 811 00:40:43,320 --> 00:40:46,600 Speaker 1: but I closed the shop a lot of nights. One night, 812 00:40:48,160 --> 00:40:50,560 Speaker 1: Jeremy Limp Jeremy comes over and he locks the bike 813 00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:52,640 Speaker 1: shop door behind him, the bike doctor's door. 814 00:40:53,640 --> 00:40:55,480 Speaker 3: He goes, who's here?

Here here we go. 890 00:44:05,600 --> 00:44:08,600 Speaker 1: And this is I looked at. This was originally in 891 00:44:08,719 --> 00:44:12,120 Speaker 1: the India Times. Then it was covered by somebody else 892 00:44:12,160 --> 00:44:14,560 Speaker 1: and somebody else and somebody else. But Honestly, I tried 893 00:44:14,600 --> 00:44:17,399 Speaker 1: not to go with the Vice article, but the Vice 894 00:44:17,480 --> 00:44:19,520 Speaker 1: article was the best written and had the. 895 00:44:19,480 --> 00:44:20,800 Speaker 2: Best title, So okay. 896 00:44:21,760 --> 00:44:29,399 Speaker 1: A couple accidentally grew the world's most expensive mango. They've 897 00:44:29,440 --> 00:44:32,200 Speaker 1: now hired three men and nine dogs to guard it. 898 00:44:33,239 --> 00:44:38,520 Speaker 1: This is absolutely fascinating. Four years ago, farmer Sankalp Singh 899 00:44:38,600 --> 00:44:42,160 Speaker 1: Perara traveled to the southern Indian city of Chennai in 900 00:44:42,160 --> 00:44:45,160 Speaker 1: search of a hybrid coconut seeds. During the train journey, 901 00:44:45,320 --> 00:44:47,719 Speaker 1: struck up a conversation with a man seat at opposite him. 902 00:44:48,040 --> 00:44:50,520 Speaker 1: The man learned that Perara was a farmer. He offered 903 00:44:50,520 --> 00:44:55,040 Speaker 1: to sell him a special mango sapling for essentially thirty 904 00:44:55,040 --> 00:44:58,080 Speaker 1: three dollars. Out of curious curiosity, decide take a chance 905 00:44:58,160 --> 00:45:02,920 Speaker 1: and buy it. So then they planted it, and then 906 00:45:02,960 --> 00:45:04,520 Speaker 1: all of a sudden it grew And there is a 907 00:45:04,560 --> 00:45:07,200 Speaker 1: quote from him, I grew it like an ordinary mango plant, 908 00:45:07,239 --> 00:45:09,360 Speaker 1: but a few months later saw that it had developed 909 00:45:09,400 --> 00:45:16,759 Speaker 1: a beautiful red color. This is insane. So apparently it 910 00:45:16,840 --> 00:45:20,719 Speaker 1: is known as the egg of the Sun. It is 911 00:45:20,880 --> 00:45:24,160 Speaker 1: a Japanese variety of mango. 912 00:45:25,680 --> 00:45:27,719 Speaker 3: Yeah, a mouthwatering. 913 00:45:28,440 --> 00:45:32,080 Speaker 1: And according to a local Japanese media report, a box 914 00:45:32,160 --> 00:45:37,080 Speaker 1: of two Miyazaki mangos sold for half a million Japanese yen, 915 00:45:37,560 --> 00:45:43,200 Speaker 1: which is four five dollars in twenty nineteen. So yeah, 916 00:45:42,560 --> 00:45:46,440 Speaker 1: they have these mangos now that are just growing, and 917 00:45:46,480 --> 00:45:49,359 Speaker 1: they're so expensive in Japan because they have to grow 918 00:45:49,400 --> 00:45:53,560 Speaker 1: them in a a in a greenhouse, they have to 919 00:45:53,760 --> 00:45:56,840 Speaker 1: like mist and everything because the Japanese. But in India 920 00:45:57,280 --> 00:46:00,160 Speaker 1: they just grow naturally. And so this guy's got this 921 00:46:00,239 --> 00:46:02,799 Speaker 1: cool plan where he has not sold any yet. So 922 00:46:02,840 --> 00:46:04,920 Speaker 1: he had like one fruiting tree and he took all 923 00:46:04,960 --> 00:46:07,120 Speaker 1: the seeds and he's planned like one hundred and fifty more. 924 00:46:07,360 --> 00:46:10,399 Speaker 1: And his plan is to like essentially just introduce this 925 00:46:10,760 --> 00:46:13,880 Speaker 1: what used to be a rare mango. Apparently the flesh 926 00:46:13,960 --> 00:46:16,359 Speaker 1: is red and it's like hyper sweet and you can 927 00:46:16,440 --> 00:46:19,440 Speaker 1: eat the you can eat the rind of it as well, 928 00:46:19,920 --> 00:46:22,360 Speaker 1: which would be amazing to eat a red mango and 929 00:46:22,400 --> 00:46:23,840 Speaker 1: you could eat the rind, just eat it like a 930 00:46:23,840 --> 00:46:27,040 Speaker 1: fucking apple. Yes, and so yeah, so this guy, but 931 00:46:27,160 --> 00:46:28,799 Speaker 1: you know, people are of course trying to steal it, 932 00:46:28,840 --> 00:46:30,719 Speaker 1: so he has all these guards and everything. This is 933 00:46:30,800 --> 00:46:33,360 Speaker 1: like the cursed gift, you know, like this is what 934 00:46:33,480 --> 00:46:36,400 Speaker 1: would be a great one for Bridger gift or curse 935 00:46:36,520 --> 00:46:39,560 Speaker 1: to get the most special mango seed ever? 936 00:46:40,040 --> 00:46:42,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, and how much was one? Or was it for 937 00:46:42,520 --> 00:46:44,040 Speaker 3: the case you said the number? 938 00:46:44,280 --> 00:46:47,799 Speaker 1: It's two the case of two four five hundred dollars, 939 00:46:47,880 --> 00:46:50,200 Speaker 1: so each one was worth two thousand, two hundred and 940 00:46:50,239 --> 00:46:54,480 Speaker 1: fifty bucks for one mango for one man man. 941 00:46:54,719 --> 00:46:58,760 Speaker 3: I mean, I guess a mangoes are pretty damn good, 942 00:46:58,880 --> 00:47:00,960 Speaker 3: but I don't know if I would pay two grand 943 00:47:01,000 --> 00:47:03,560 Speaker 3: for a mango.

The groom may never remember, but the bride 1044 00:51:46,480 --> 00:51:52,560 Speaker 3: will never forget. Good writing. IDAs, Yes, Yes, Idam really 1045 00:51:52,680 --> 00:51:54,800 Speaker 3: is the best in the byss. It's a love story 1046 00:51:56,040 --> 00:51:59,560 Speaker 3: that romance movies aspired to. Alzheimer's disease has stolen most 1047 00:51:59,600 --> 00:52:02,520 Speaker 3: of Peter Marshall's memories, but one thing he hasn't forgotten 1048 00:52:02,600 --> 00:52:04,600 Speaker 3: is how much he loves his wife. Even if he 1049 00:52:04,760 --> 00:52:07,800 Speaker 3: doesn't recall her name. Peter and his wife Lisa have 1050 00:52:07,880 --> 00:52:10,799 Speaker 3: been married for twelve years, but with Peter fifty six, 1051 00:52:11,000 --> 00:52:14,719 Speaker 3: battling fifty six is really young, battling onset Alzheimer's that 1052 00:52:14,880 --> 00:52:16,759 Speaker 3: he was diagnosed with a few years ago, and he 1053 00:52:16,840 --> 00:52:19,719 Speaker 3: doesn't remember their wedding happening. He just knows that he 1054 00:52:19,800 --> 00:52:22,640 Speaker 3: loves her. So last December, Peter had a sudden moment 1055 00:52:22,680 --> 00:52:25,040 Speaker 3: of clarity. The couple were watching a wedding on TV 1056 00:52:25,480 --> 00:52:27,560 Speaker 3: and he turned to her and said, quote, let's do it. 1057 00:52:27,840 --> 00:52:30,360 Speaker 3: Lisa didn't know how to respond. I said do what 1058 00:52:30,560 --> 00:52:33,600 Speaker 3: she said. And he pointed to the TV the scene 1059 00:52:33,640 --> 00:52:35,960 Speaker 3: of the wedding and said, do you want to get married? 1060 00:52:37,480 --> 00:52:39,520 Speaker 3: And he said yes, and he had this huge grin 1061 00:52:39,640 --> 00:52:42,359 Speaker 3: on his face. Lisa said, he doesn't know that I'm 1062 00:52:42,400 --> 00:52:45,759 Speaker 3: his wife. I'm just his favorite person. Peter got to 1063 00:52:45,800 --> 00:52:48,120 Speaker 3: fall in love all over again, and he chose Lisa again. 1064 00:52:48,280 --> 00:52:50,520 Speaker 3: Quote I'm the luckiest girl in the world. I get 1065 00:52:50,600 --> 00:52:52,799 Speaker 3: to do it twice, said Lisa, wiping a tear from 1066 00:52:52,880 --> 00:52:56,480 Speaker 3: her eye. Her daughter is a wedding and event planning 1067 00:52:56,640 --> 00:52:58,920 Speaker 3: an event planner, and she put out the word and 1068 00:52:59,000 --> 00:53:02,280 Speaker 3: countless vendors off their services for free, which is very beautiful. 1069 00:53:02,360 --> 00:53:05,360 Speaker 3: Can thank you to all those wonderful vendors. It was 1070 00:53:05,440 --> 00:53:07,640 Speaker 3: so perfect. I couldn't have dreamt for a better day. 1071 00:53:07,680 --> 00:53:10,160 Speaker 3: It was so magical. I can't remember seeing him so 1072 00:53:10,280 --> 00:53:12,920 Speaker 3: happy for such a long time. He was just so happy. 1073 00:53:14,880 --> 00:53:18,840 Speaker 3: But Peter's illness has been getting worse, sadly, so he 1074 00:53:18,960 --> 00:53:22,000 Speaker 3: no longer remembers the Valvenule ceremony just a couple of 1075 00:53:22,000 --> 00:53:24,520 Speaker 3: months ago. But he does remember a woman loves him 1076 00:53:24,520 --> 00:53:27,200 Speaker 3: and cherishes him. And he leaned in my ear and whispered, 1077 00:53:27,360 --> 00:53:30,719 Speaker 3: thank you for staying, Lisa said, through tears. That's very 1078 00:53:31,200 --> 00:53:33,960 Speaker 3: beautiful story, well written.
