7
00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:21,360
Speaker 2: fact where you would never tell another human being because

8
00:00:21,360 --> 00:00:28,240
Speaker 2: it would kill the conversations stone cold dead. Now we

19
00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:57,040
Speaker 2: of short play at the beginning of it. We know

Speaker 2: Yeah, it's fascinating. All right, just kick off them with

34
00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:45,640

36
00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:51,480
Speaker 2: know that New Zealand has no snakes?

37
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:52,040
Speaker 5: Yes?

38
00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:55,400
Speaker 3: I knew that New Zealand didn't have any animals originally

39
00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:59,200
Speaker 3: except for birds. You're kidding every every mammal like New

40
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:01,559
Speaker 3: Zealand betroduced? Yeah?

41
00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:02,040
Speaker 6: Really?

42
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:03,120
Speaker 1: Are you looking at me again?

43
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:05,040
Speaker 2: Is it the Old England is bringing up their trucks

44
00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:06,960
Speaker 2: of animals that don't belong in countries?

45
00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:09,440
Speaker 1: Is that right? No animals?

46
00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:11,320
Speaker 3: I'm going to look about resident Kiwi out the window,

47
00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:13,680
Speaker 3: but I'm pretty sure that's true. Thumbs up? What about

48
00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:14,440
Speaker 3: the Kiwi bird?

49
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:14,680
Speaker 4: Though?

50
00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:17,440
Speaker 3: Know this and that's why the Kiwi bird became like

51
00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:20,240
Speaker 3: a ground moving bird is because there was no mammals.

52
00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:22,000
Speaker 3: So he thought, oh, I'll do what memos do?

53
00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:23,000
Speaker 1: What does Google say?

54
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:25,080
Speaker 2: Could you tell me what Google says about New Zealand

00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:26,840
Speaker 2: formerly having no animals.

56
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:30,800
Speaker 3: Jackie's right, Jack, several million years ago there was no wildlife.

57
00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:34,560
Speaker 1: Really, that's fascinating. All right, Kirsty, thank you very much.

58
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:37,240
Speaker 1: And Jack? What about this? Then? Nomes? You know, little

59
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:37,919
Speaker 1: garden nomes.

60
00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:42,360
Speaker 2: Gnomes wear different colored hats to represent their place in

61
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:44,200
Speaker 2: nomes society.

62
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:44,959
Speaker 3: No idea.

63
00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:49,799
Speaker 1: What do we think? Is that mildly or fascinating? Oh no,

64
00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:50,080
Speaker 1: no no.

65
00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:52,520
Speaker 2: Next time you see a nome you think, well, is

66
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:54,760
Speaker 2: that the leader? We need to know what the color

67
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:55,840
Speaker 2: coding system.

68
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:57,480
Speaker 3: Is because I don't want to go to a commoner

69
00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:01,720
Speaker 3: gnome and address him like some kind of royalty.

70
00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:04,359
Speaker 2: Can we find out that during the song or the

71
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:07,280
Speaker 2: ass Can we find out what the hat coding is

72
00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:10,520
Speaker 2: in nome society? Emma's got on average, over the course

73
00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:14,760

Speaker 2: on the toilet.

75
00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:17,440

87
00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:46,320
Speaker 7: to the DJ to try and remember this song, and

88
00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:48,480
Speaker 7: he doesn't know the words to it. But it's actually

89
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:50,840
Speaker 7: the reference to Light by the sugar Hill Gang.

90
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:55,160
Speaker 2: I didn't know this that the Last ketchup had an

91
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:56,120

Speaker 7: Guy goes to a nightclub and he goes up to

96
00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:15,200
Speaker 7: the DJ and tries to remember the song that he

97
00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:17,600
Speaker 7: wants to play. We can't remember.

98
00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:20,599
Speaker 2: It, so he kind of does last ketchup.

99
00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:21,400
Speaker 1: He invents a song.

100
00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:28,000
Speaker 3: I mean, it's true. Interesting.

Speaker 8: I just.

102
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:34,920

00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:42,440
Speaker 3: Let's give her the benefit of the doubt it is true,

107
00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:43,839
Speaker 3: in which case it is fascinating.

108
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:44,760
Speaker 1: How do we verify this?

109
00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:47,040
Speaker 2: Do we now need to contact the people from the

110
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:51,440
Speaker 2: artists responsible for Let's catch up? Let's contact them. Fascinating pending.

115
00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:09,919

Speaker 2: one of four.

121
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:24,359

122
00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:28,320
Speaker 6: for eating raw, whereas the male ones are better for cooking.

123
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:32,480

124
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:36,280
Speaker 6: the red have been on the vine longer and have ripened, right,

125
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:37,479

127
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:40,640
Speaker 1: more immature.

128
00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:41,600

185
00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:35,400
Speaker 2: got an animal fact for us?

186
00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:39,520
Speaker 8: I certainly do. Other than humans, there's only a few animals,

187
00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:43,560
Speaker 8: including apes, elephants, and dolphins that recognize their reflection.

188
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:46,840
Speaker 2: Are you sure.

189
00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:48,240
Speaker 1: That they can because there wasn't.

190
00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:51,360
Speaker 2: I'm not sure that they're capable of abstract thinking, because

191
00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:53,920
Speaker 2: if we can't, I thought there's only humans that do that.

192
00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:57,200
Speaker 8: No, there's Scientists have done tests and they call it

193
00:08:57,240 --> 00:08:59,960
Speaker 8: the marktest or the mirror test. They basically put the

194
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:04,920
Speaker 8: animals to sleep, they mark them with paint or a sticker,

195
00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:07,480
Speaker 8: and when they come to they give them access to

196
00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:12,800
Speaker 8: a mirror. And if they start to investigate that mark

197
00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:16,040
Speaker 8: or pay interest to it, they know that they're aware

198
00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:16,480
Speaker 8: of their self.

199
00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:17,760
Speaker 1: Elephant's going to go.

200
00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:23,840
Speaker 2: Come on, guys, draw, come on, put that swear word

201
00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:26,720
Speaker 2: on my elephant forehead and lips. That we've spoken about this,

202
00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:28,800
Speaker 2: it's not funny. You guys have to get my trunk

203
00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:34,720
Speaker 2: and some more from Wash it Off. Okay, that is fascinating.

204
