1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:02,920
Speaker 1: Dumb mission with joon Z and Amanda.

2
00:00:02,960 --> 00:00:04,920
Speaker 2: Let's get on there to Jones. The matter arms for

3
00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:08,800
Speaker 2: the pub test encyclopedias do they pass the pub test?

4
00:00:08,880 --> 00:00:11,280
Speaker 3: I saw a comedian called Laurie Kilmartin. I saw a

5
00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:14,000
Speaker 3: snippet of her stand up, and it really struck a chord.

6
00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:18,160
Speaker 4: I still have all my childhood encyclopedias for nostalgia purposes.

7
00:00:18,560 --> 00:00:21,480
Speaker 4: So I took my son to the storage unit and

8
00:00:21,520 --> 00:00:23,880
Speaker 4: I said, if you can use these books to tell

9
00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:27,040
Speaker 4: me who is the prime Minister of Great Britain in

10
00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:30,200
Speaker 4: World War Two, I will get you a brand new

11
00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:33,960
Speaker 4: twelve hundred dollars iPhone right now, right, And he goes

12
00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:36,960
Speaker 4: right to the w Encyclopedia and I was like, oh, no,

13
00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:41,440
Speaker 4: I underestimated him. He's gonna he's gonna look up World

14
00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:44,840
Speaker 4: War Two, but instead he tried to look up who

15
00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:48,599
Speaker 4: was the prime minister? Do Dan?

16
00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:49,159
Speaker 5: Am I right?

17
00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:49,839
Speaker 2: I'm right?

18
00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:53,960
Speaker 3: So we've been looking at Encyclopedia Britannica's that they halted

19
00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:56,920
Speaker 3: the publication after two hundred and forty.

20
00:00:56,680 --> 00:00:59,560
Speaker 2: Four years and that was nine years ago, though, wasn't it?

21
00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:03,800
Speaker 3: That was yet nine years ago? Now they're online. But

22
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:07,480
Speaker 3: you know Wikipedia, for example, Wikipedia English has three point

23
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:10,600
Speaker 3: nine million articles, Britannica has one hundred and twenty thousand.

24
00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:13,280
Speaker 3: But that was the only way we we knew anything

25
00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:16,199
Speaker 3: was encyclopedias. They were our resource materials.

26
00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:19,360
Speaker 2: And exactly as you just said, And like wooden sailing ships,

27
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:21,520
Speaker 2: we don't use them to get around anymore. We keep

28
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:25,600
Speaker 2: them for nostalgia purposes. And that's exactly what excited encyclopedias

29
00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:26,080
Speaker 2: have become.

30
00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:28,480
Speaker 3: They But how do you even if you wanted to

31
00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:31,840
Speaker 3: use them. We don't have room for them anymore. So

32
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:34,039
Speaker 3: encyclopedias do they pass the pub test?

33
00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:35,080
Speaker 6: They do not.

34
00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:37,759
Speaker 7: They've got them the way, just like newspapers.

35
00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:42,600
Speaker 6: There there, I actually had a whole seat, and when

36
00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:45,319
Speaker 6: I moved out, I wish you didn't have room for them.

37
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:49,600
Speaker 6: There was a brand new primary school nearby, so I

38
00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:53,200
Speaker 6: actually ranked them, and they were so intested the librarian

39
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:55,400
Speaker 6: wasn't the children there to be able to reference.

40
00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:59,160
Speaker 1: So the gigles okay, But the problem is it only

41
00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:02,840
Speaker 1: has w do what were and when you can't get

42
00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:06,000
Speaker 1: any better than pulling out the old bunco and wadinal

43
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:09,240
Speaker 1: and looking up and flicking through the pages and binding

44
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:10,200
Speaker 1: things he didn't know.

45
00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:16,239
Speaker 5: Yes, simple It's the basic, the fundamental difference between a

46
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:18,320
Speaker 5: Wikipedia and a Britannica.

47
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:21,240
Speaker 7: I have an entry in Wikipedia, and I don't know

48
00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:25,000
Speaker 7: what a bturnita, which is why Brittanny here is a

49
00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:26,600
Speaker 7: better option than Wikipedia.

50
00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:29,760
Speaker 2: I'm going to change Peter Burner's Wikipedia entries as well.

51
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:31,880
Speaker 3: So nice to hear from Peter Burner the Beast on

52
00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:32,400
Speaker 3: the radio.

53
00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:34,720
Speaker 1: Jonesy and Amanda's genation
