SPEAKER_00:Really? We're still going to 7D. Some people keep asking me if we still do a podcast.
SPEAKER_01:Well, that's because we've got people notice though that we're not That we're shit. No, that we're not having got together and done podcasts. It shows it with the people actively listening, and that's that's kind of cool.
SPEAKER_03:But they stop listening if we're not consistent.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, but when you go on Spotify, it'll be like, oh, you know? Like, doesn't it pop up? Like I have new ones that pop up all the time. Yeah. And like my favorite. Favorited? It'll show a little blue dot beside it.
SPEAKER_00:Mm-hmm.
unknown:Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:So we're just waiting for the blue dot.
SPEAKER_00:Just sitting there staring at it every day, wondering when Average appears.
SPEAKER_01:Too bad we didn't have like a social media account that could post when we actually do new food. We suck at running well. But it's so much work. And you guys do it all. I don't really do much.
SPEAKER_03:We probably talked about this last time, but today I reposted uh I sent my wife an Instagram story that I thought was funny, and then she was like, that's AI. I'm like, what? Then I had to relook at it. I'm like, oh damn it, it probably is. I am really getting tired of the fact that I can't tell anymore just on a glance if something's real or fake.
SPEAKER_01:They got the hands down now. Like the hands are solid. You can't tell.
SPEAKER_03:Like there's obvious it's obvious like there's obvious fake ones, but then there's some that I just can't unless you like I guess if you stare at it and look at it, but usually it's just a quick glance, oh, haha, that's funny, but move on. And you're like, you just assume it was real.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah. Yeah. There's a a fake girlfriend AI filter on Instagram where you just take like a video of yourself and it will put a person in there, or girlfriend boy from whatever, put a person in there, and they'll walk over and like put their hand on you, or like touch your head or something, and then walk away. And it's fucking creepy because it it mass it matches your body positioning, and it's all this stuff that's doing just on your phone.
SPEAKER_03:What about guys who are doing OnlyFan pages? But there's tons of those. But they can do the filter of a girl over top of them.
SPEAKER_01:There was that kid in the States that made like a million dollars, and he was like 14 and he had an AI girl only fans that he was just farming out to all these uh lonely guys. That is actually amazing. If that's my kid, I'm not even mad. I'd be like, yeah, good for you.
SPEAKER_00:What if when that AI girlfriend came over and put her hand on you, you like felt a hand on your hand?
SPEAKER_01:Oh, this is where it's going. It's gonna get so weird. Ugh.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:We're doomed.
SPEAKER_00:Do you think AI is like so they figured out hands? Have they figured out the rest?
SPEAKER_01:Hair is what?
SPEAKER_00:Like you said, only fans. Like, have they figured out like is that like I don't know the other parts.
SPEAKER_01:Just to let everyone know where you're pointing, is generally your belly, your belly? Your genitals. No, he was a it was a super vague point as his belly.
SPEAKER_00:I think it was pretty obvious what I was referring to. I have no idea. They must have.
SPEAKER_01:Well they I know they have because there's people who have been like arrested and stuff for that type.
SPEAKER_00:What do you mean arrested?
SPEAKER_01:Like creating that type of uh pornography.
SPEAKER_00:Oh, that type.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah. A hundred percent. That's messed up.
SPEAKER_00:Is that no?
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, it's it's so fucked up. And it's just gonna get worse. Yeah. Because nothing's gonna stop it. No one's regulating this part.
SPEAKER_03:I told my kid today, I said What are we doing? I don't know. Well, right? I don't know. I told my kid today next year, you by the end of next year, you probably won't be able to tell what's real and what's not anymore on video. Like, if you watch a video, you can't just assume it's real. Like, it doesn't matter how good it looks. That's the problem for everything. Like you think about I don't know, friggin' health authorities, politics, uh religious figures, whoever, and uh somebody you maybe idolize or you think they're whatever, and then they have a video and they say something, and you're like, oh see, that's what they think, and then you realize later on, oh, that wasn't even them.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, like maybe Liver King didn't post those videos saying you want to fight Joe Rogan, but it was AI, and then they arrested him, you know. Did you watch the Liverking video? Oh my god, he goes on some rants.
SPEAKER_03:I feel like they didn't arrest him for that. Like I think he made threats.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, like he's gonna he's gonna fight him and lose.
SPEAKER_03:No, but I think it was something else. I don't know. Anyway, it doesn't matter.
SPEAKER_00:Was this in the US?
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, he he literally traveled and made a vlog about him traveling to fight Joe Rogan. And he got to Austin and he he was in the grocery store talking about getting energy drinks so he can fight him. Like it was ridiculous.
SPEAKER_00:I think off the deep end.
SPEAKER_01:There's gotta be there, probably is, or he's just looking for uh fucking attention. I don't know.
SPEAKER_00:I hate him.
unknown:Yeah.
SPEAKER_03:Uh I before I came here tonight, I watched the new documentary uh Titan, the Titan submersible one. Uh that was interesting. Well, actually, it wasn't to be to be fair. I don't think it was that interesting. It was just like it was kind of obvious that there was a whole bunch of issues and consistently through all their testing, there was a gigantic issues. A lot of the engineers were like, hey, this is stupid. This obviously isn't working very well. Uh they it's impressive they got actually did as many dives as they did without getting killed until they did.
SPEAKER_01:That wasn't the first dive.
SPEAKER_03:Oh no, this is like dive 88. Like for that vessel. Well, no, so they've had different iterations of vessels um with the same design, the carbon fiber thing, but they had uh like they've actually and I didn't realize this, but they actually made it to uh Titanic several times, um, which is shouldn't have happened, like in the end, based on like the the engineering of the carbon fiber, like they were showing they had um things to record audio sounds around as because as the carbon fiber would break, it snaps, it makes like a literal snapping sound. And so as these carbon fiber, like these fibers would snap, they'd make these crazy sounds. And so they had this like graph of the as it got deeper and deeper of the snaps getting louder and bing, bing, bing, and then it would just calm down and then it would snap again. And they just kept on going down. Yeah, we just kept going. And like that's why like almost all of the engineers quit. All like all of the original people basically quit the had quit the company and said, You're insane, this is not gonna work, people are gonna die. And it was the last, oh there was yeah, it was the last uh 80 number eight dive eighty-eight, I think it was maybe where it actually did finally imploded.
SPEAKER_01:Did they they didn't recover it?
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, they did actually pieces they got pieces of it. They got the like the two end pieces that weren't carbon fiber. Yeah, that didn't work. Oh, because the rest of it just blew apart. It just squished everybody. Oh if if I was on that sub when it was going down, this watch the documents do that because the sounds are so creepy. I'd be like, take me to the surface right now.
SPEAKER_01:So if that happened, why didn't they like is it is it like when you're kind of like driving your car and it's like low on gas, you're like, How far can I push it? Like when the when the sound started, why didn't they just say, hey, let's stop and go back up?
SPEAKER_03:The guy was like the CEO, he was so I think he was an idiot. Oh, but he was like so um in his own way, like he he just like he fired people who questioned him. If they're like, hey man, yeah, this is a problem. Like, sure, good job. Like that one time they actually made a tattoo and came back. They're like, Cool, it worked, but then the guy was like, however, there's some giant issues, and he wrote this whole thing up, and they are like, Yeah, you're gone. One of us has to leave, and it's not gonna be me. Yeah, it's almost like his ego kind of got in the way. Huge, big, big, big problem. And uh the they they interviewed one guy who's a he's a YouTuber who's got like 13 million followers, that was had got on the uh submarine, they got in the water, I don't know how deep, not super far, but then they called it off because of the fog or something, weather, and it was the next dive it blew up. And so he lived, but had it like had the weather been okay and had they decided to keep it going, that that would have been the one. So he's like he's he's trying to live through that, live with that.
SPEAKER_01:We watched the Titanic documentary with my kids. Oh, yeah, and it's like appropriate for kids. Is this this is not because my boy asked about it.
SPEAKER_03:No, it's fine. There's I mean, there's a couple of sweaters, but there's not it's except for the nightmares that he would have.
SPEAKER_01:I don't think it's he knew like he's 10, he knows what happened.
SPEAKER_03:There's nothing, they don't show anything. They basically it's it'd be probably boring to be honest. They talked just kind of through the engineering of it and um the manufacturing and the issues they had. And I'm having nightmares about that sound. That's it.
SPEAKER_00:You know where you don't have that sound?
SPEAKER_03:Above the water.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, there you go.
SPEAKER_01:We're not supposed to be there.
SPEAKER_00:I think Ocean Gate was making normal subs though. Before that, were they not?
SPEAKER_03:So yeah, they before they went to the carbon fiber hull, I think they were, and I think that's some of those are the ones where they initially had got down to the Titanic. Um, I'm not sure. I was kind of confused by that too.
SPEAKER_00:Just keep doing that.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, but they wanted it to be cheaper and more um, they make more money when they sell it to the billionaire who got killed. Oh I don't know, it was it was interesting. There's actually a whole bunch of documentaries I want to watch on Netflix right now.
SPEAKER_00:I'm watching the one about Grenfell Tower. I saw that. That was interesting. It's like I don't know what that is. It's like a giant apartment building in the UK in London that went up in flames.
SPEAKER_05:Oh.
SPEAKER_00:Due to the way the siding that they put on it. Like 75.
SPEAKER_01:Oh. That's bad. That's bad. Oh, well, I would assume there's more than 75 people in an apartment building. That's why I was like, oh god. But 75 sucks.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah.
unknown:Yeah.
SPEAKER_03:That Astro World one looks interesting. Which one's that? Uh that's Travis Scott, I think is the same his name. Oh no. That's kind of like Woodstock 99. That was interesting. I thought I thought that was interesting. Is that it? Or is it Ast? I don't know. Astro World, it was a music festival where a whole bunch of people got trampled.
SPEAKER_02:No, I didn't hear that. Is that am I right? It was a Travis Scott? No, Tripp. If only we had someone to look some things up with a thing.
SPEAKER_01:I see you both looking at me, but I'm trying to remember in my mind who's the drummer from Blink 182. Travis Barker. So Travis Scott is the rapper.
SPEAKER_03:Right, but I don't know if that was Astro World.
SPEAKER_01:Oh, okay.
SPEAKER_03:Like who's the who's the rapper associated to Astro World? I feel like there's got to be an Astro in his name.
SPEAKER_01:And it was I don't know. Trample dying isn't good. That's what you mean.
SPEAKER_03:Who is it? How many?
SPEAKER_01:It's just processing. Okay. Yeah. Oh, Travis Scott. Oh, I was right. 20 2018. How many people died? Yeah. Swipe to activate voice mode. What is this is just a ridiculousness. Um anyway.
SPEAKER_00:This is what happens when you have free help. Yeah, it's terrible.
SPEAKER_01:Or waiting. This is the slowest it's ever been. Anyway, 10.
SPEAKER_00:Ah. Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:Like that's that's no Fremont Tower or whatever you were talking about.
SPEAKER_03:Fremont Grandfeld.
SPEAKER_01:Greenfeld, whatever, you know. What about the Oh, but no, it gets sadder ranging in the age of 9 to 29.
SPEAKER_00:So that's what's the line where it gets sad?
SPEAKER_01:Like for a concert death? Like a trampling death? Yeah. I think it's sad because of the ages.
SPEAKER_00:I know, but where, because you said 20. If it had just been 29, you know.
SPEAKER_01:18 plus. Um, 18 plus age.
SPEAKER_00:So like if they had just turned 18, is it less sad than if it was the day before? 17.
SPEAKER_01:I'm thinking like I think like if if 20 people died, that's like that's a man. I don't know. 10. For a concert, 10 people. 11 year old screw them. No, like 10 people. Oh, like there's an age. It was an age thing. Oh shit, no, no, I meant like 18 plus concert. If 10 people die, that's like a no, I mean age.
SPEAKER_00:Like it's like is it sad when an 18-year-old dies, but like it is it is much it's so sad when kids Yeah, of course it is. Yeah. Where's your line? Oh. Because you're like, it was really sad. Because like you kind of indicated that you're not going to be able to do it. You thought it was sad because of the 19-year-old.
unknown:Okay.
SPEAKER_01:Free 16 is pretty sad. When they had 15 and stuff like that, but like before you can drive, if you die in a concert getting trampled on, I think that's very sad.
SPEAKER_00:I would agree.
SPEAKER_01:16's my uh my deathline.
SPEAKER_00:What about poop cruise? What? I've seen that documentary. Uh that was another one on my list.
SPEAKER_03:It just came out, I think, today or just.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, I don't know if anybody died on the poop cruise.
SPEAKER_03:I don't they didn't. I well, I mean, okay, I'm saying I'm I'm assuming they didn't.
SPEAKER_00:Very confident in that.
SPEAKER_03:I'm always confident. Uh it was a cruise ship that where the everything stopped working and there was 4,000 passengers on it? Oh my gosh.
SPEAKER_00:I don't think anybody died, though. I think that it feels like they're running out of things to make documentaries about.
SPEAKER_01:No deaths. Probably. Yeah, but we'll we'll come up with some good stuff. Trump, Trump's uh throwing out F-bombs at reporters. It was a good that was a good that was a good F-bomb.
SPEAKER_00:Very well placed.
SPEAKER_01:If my kid threw that at me, I'd be like, you know what? I can't even be mad at you. Like that he enunciated the right part of the app.
SPEAKER_00:I don't know what the fuck they're doing.
SPEAKER_01:And then he just walks away like a boss. I was like, oh, I can't wait for the phone call from my mom about that.
SPEAKER_03:So I haven't been following necess super closely this Iran-Israel thing. But the today I kind of looked at some things, and from what I saw on my X, it seemed like what the US did kind of worked. Am I wrong? Presumably. It seems like the the destroying of the facilities. Yeah, it seems like there's actually like a ceasefire and potential peace talks.
SPEAKER_01:I watched a little thing about how the the missiles work that they use, the bunker busters or whatever. That was a crazy this the technology is amazing. How do they work? Just they just go in the ground. Oh my god. They just go in the ground.
SPEAKER_03:So you ever see like a gopher dig a hole? It's like that.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, pretty much, except like faster.
SPEAKER_03:It's like gopher hands on the at the front of the missile, and as it hits the ground, they're really fast, and they just dig super quickly, and just a little create a little path for that missile to go through.
SPEAKER_00:You know, option A, people could listen to this podcast and learn something.
SPEAKER_01:Option B, we could just Who is listening to learn something? Yeah, if you're listening to learn something, go watch Poop Cruise on Netflix if you want to learn something. The GBU 57 massive ordinance penetrator. Yeah. Oh, let's go.
SPEAKER_00:Can you just tell me like in one sentence how it works? Hey, how do you think about it? Not at all.
SPEAKER_01:Not at all.
SPEAKER_00:You have you literally have AI.
SPEAKER_01:I'm gonna start using my own AI here because I feel like if you if you say explain in one sentence how these can burrow 200 feet through concrete or 60 meters um through the earth under ideal conditions because of the rocket assistance. That's about there's so much text here. I don't want to go and try and read all this.
SPEAKER_00:I'm looking at you, JB.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, this is a lot.
SPEAKER_00:Because 60 meters seems like a lot.
SPEAKER_01:60 meters of solid earth?
SPEAKER_00:Yeah. That's ridiculous. Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:That's so cool.
SPEAKER_00:And how many how much was the concrete?
SPEAKER_01:Uh sixty feet. That's a fucking lot of concrete, too. Oh, and you can predetermine the depth before the fuse actually detonates.
SPEAKER_00:I would hope so.
SPEAKER_01:That's so cool.
SPEAKER_03:Okay. These weapons, often weighing thousands of pounds, feature a robust narrow steel or depleted uranium penetrator that allows them to bore through thick layers of concrete, earth, or rock. The warhead typically a high explosive charge is triggered by a fuse that delays ignition until the bomb reaches a predetermined depth or encounters sufficient resistance. So once it feels that resistance, then it d kicks on the rocket boosters.
SPEAKER_01:The one thing I couldn't find is how does it actually go, like how does it get that deep?
SPEAKER_03:Like what causes the rocket weighs tons. It weighs an insane amount of weight, and then it's going very, very fast down.
SPEAKER_00:But then the rocket boosters turn on the room.
SPEAKER_03:So then when it starts feeling a certain amount of resistance and a certain depth in, it activates a fuse and ignites the uh the boosters, uh, which then shove it through the dirt and rock. Advanced versions like the GBU 57 massive ordinance penetrator use GPS guidance for precision and can carry thousands of pounds of explosives to collapse heavily fortified structures, while some incorporate thermal barric effects to generate intense heat and pressure, ensuring the destruction of even deeply buried targets.
SPEAKER_01:The best part is when this happened when they're when they dropped the bombs, we were in the States, if we were in Vegas, and just the people because you there's TVs everywhere and a lot in the like and people were way too pumped about it down there.
SPEAKER_00:I would be pumped.
SPEAKER_01:I they would be and it was weird because we don't have that patriotism that they have. Well, we don't have bunker busters, that's for sure.
SPEAKER_02:Do we talk about our government? No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
SPEAKER_01:Please.
SPEAKER_03:Please. Oh, yeah, there's a whole bunch of things. Have you seen our health minister?
SPEAKER_01:Which the is she the bigger lady or the uh the one who doesn't know what health is. She's overweight. Yeah, she's overweight. Not just that.
SPEAKER_00:Which is it which is is I mean, comparatively, one of like the biggest risk factors of death.
unknown:Yes.
SPEAKER_01:RFK just has a shirt off. Right, but like he's doing anybody.
SPEAKER_03:To be fair, the previous one to RFK was also a garbage file. Oh, was it? Yeah. In the States, yeah. So but like, how do we find these? How do we like these are the people who are apparently going to be giving our population health advice?
SPEAKER_00:It's like they look across the crowd and be like, you, you look like you haven't worked out ever.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, you have no idea what eating healthy and working out is like.
SPEAKER_00:Can you please by a show of hands? Who is the last person to come from McDonald's? All right, you're the health minister. It gets so frustrating.
SPEAKER_03:Uh that, and then uh the immigration minister. Have you seen some of the oh my god, some of the conversations in the parliament about immigration and they do the amount of money that these asylum seekers get? Uh is it's it's insane. It's insane. And then them getting questions. The funny the thing that drives me crazy. Oh, you I sent you the one about the gun stuff. The guy that didn't know the difference between the guy who's in charge of it.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, he had no idea what all the Yeah, that I watched that interaction between him and this conservative guy. Yeah. It was just it was so embarrassing.
SPEAKER_03:That's my point. Is and that's and it was terrible. But like every I see you've seen a bunch of that the immigration minister, that guy, the gun guy. It's like they are put in these positions and literally don't know the first, like the most general details about the thing that they're supposed to be running.
SPEAKER_01:I actually I absolutely hate the way that is formatted because they have the speaker and they always so stupid. And they talk to the speaker, and nothing, I'm sorry, I swear, nothing fucking changes. They just they they'll point out all the stuff and nobody can do anything about the conversation. And they never answer the question. And they never answer the question. I I hate our parliament, is it the House of Commons? I hate that. That format is the worst.
SPEAKER_03:Thank you for the question, Mr. Speaker. Actually, you know, what I was thinking about the other day as I was taking a walk with my dog, I and then they get interrupted and like, answer the question, Mr. Speaker. No, thank you, Mr. Speaker. Well, like as Asla was saying, I was walking my dogs and it's just filibustering.
SPEAKER_01:That's all they're doing is buying time. I don't want to talk about the case. No.
SPEAKER_03:But it's just like it and then like the the the budget, no budget that just happened where they're spending another 200 and some billion dollars on just nonsense. I'm frustrated.
SPEAKER_01:It's it's frustrating.
SPEAKER_00:I don't I don't want to talk about our government. Yeah, it's not a lot of fun. I know, but like let's not just so frustrating. And uh it's like can you do anything about it? No, you can't. You've done you cast your vote. Now eat your meal for the next four years. But it was okay. And make sure you forfeit your guns or something.
SPEAKER_01:But you're allowed to complain because you voted. Like that's the other thing, too. If you vote and and your person doesn't win, I think you have you have some right to complain.
SPEAKER_00:I yeah.
SPEAKER_01:You know, you do.
SPEAKER_00:Sure, but it's it's fairly futile beyond maybe a little bit of effect of venting.
SPEAKER_03:It's uh completely futile, but that that's the frustration I think is like I don't know. Like I I I can understand why civil unrest happens. For sure. Like if if something like so say Carney makes these crazy things that happen that increases a whole bunch of taxes, gas goes like and the average person can't afford and all of a sudden they're like I can understand why people like I'm so frustrated and there's nothing I I I there's nothing I can physically do other than like how I how do you I don't I don't know like I get it because it's just like what what can I do? What can I do to show that this I'm not going to live in this anymore?
SPEAKER_01:You put a flag on your vehicle and you drive around. Like that's that that made it as dumb as it was, it made some a little bit of momentum.
SPEAKER_00:Have you considered buying a bulldozer and learning how to weld? No. What are we bulldozing?
SPEAKER_01:What is gonna happen? What is this should we do off the record here?
SPEAKER_00:What's like what's neither of you seen the documentary? The guy with the bulldozer that like welded on a whole bunch of shut up. I've not seen it.
SPEAKER_01:The killdozer? No. He made a killdozer? Are you guys kidding me? Did he killdozer? Why but I've never seen this?
SPEAKER_00:It was a great well, because it was a like a super like what's it called the story? I think it's called killdozer. He welded a whole bunch of armor onto this cat bulldozer and drove around demolishing city buildings because the city council had like fucked with him.
SPEAKER_03:You know what I like? I like in Europe where they the farmers went and like sprayed manure over like the buildings. I like that one.
SPEAKER_01:He had mounted firearms on it. Oh boy, demolished 13 buildings, 7 million dollars in damage.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah. And then I think he killed himself in it.
SPEAKER_01:Uh well, maybe. No deaths, he says. Oh, beside himself. Besides, yes.
SPEAKER_00:So it's fairly harmless. Yeah. Well, you know, other than costing taxpayers$7 million.
SPEAKER_01:Oh, you want to hear something? Yeah.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah. I do want to hear something.
SPEAKER_01:Well, so we went to this museum recently and it was a it was a serial killer museum.
unknown:Oh, yeah, how was that?
SPEAKER_01:It was it was one of the coolest things I've ever seen in my life. All the stuff they had, I'm like, this is gonna be super weird because it it's like a uh haunted kind of oh, the this doll's haunted here. Look at this doll, whatever. And then um halfway through this, it's the Zach Baggins haunted mansion. We go into the kid, and now we're gonna go to the serial killer area.
SPEAKER_03:Are you related to Frodo Baggins?
SPEAKER_01:No, he's not. Who does he marry to? He was married to some famous model Bilbo Baggins. Bilbo. Yes. Anyway, so we go to the serial killer museum, and uh I miscounted, and my wife made fun of me, I miscounted my edibles, so I had about two more than I thought I should, and and we're in it because they lock you in this house, it's huge. Anyway, we go through this thing and it's starting to kind of hit me a bit, and then they're like, we'll go to the serial kill part. First room, Dr. Kavorkian's van, his actual van, he killed like 90 people in, playing the music with the actual tape that he had in his van and all the machinery that he used to kill all these people for assisted suicide. And they're like, Okay, you can go ahead and get in, touch it, whatever you want. I'm like, what? And yeah, so then and then we went to a bunch of different other places Ted Bundy's mask, Gacy's family photos, um, ashes from uh Charles Manson's ashes were in there, like a portion of them. It was nuts. I didn't this is all legitimate stuff, and I was Okay, but 100%.
SPEAKER_03:That skeptical face is exactly where.
SPEAKER_01:I had skeptical face too, and so I went until we got out.
SPEAKER_02:I told you it was legit.
SPEAKER_01:Until we got out and I looked at it, and it has he has got the bill of sales, all the purchase stuff. Like he actually did a lot of people. You can't forge that away. It's legitimate, it's a hundred percent legitimate. Why? Why do you think that it is? Because they had all the stuff to show it was legitimate. Nobody just sells Charles Mansions. Exactly. An example, we got our phones back after. I just first thing I do, Dr. Kavorkian's van. And then on Google and all these internet uh like websites, also a credible stuff news news websites had the sale of the van, had all this stuff, and it it's publicity, obviously. If he buys this van, he's gonna promote it and stuff like that. He legitimate things. These were all legitimate things.
SPEAKER_00:You don't think so? I I'm more skeptical, skeptical of Charles Manson's ashes.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, so what happened, and they had the story behind that was they cremated him, and there was a worker in there who they took the ashes away, and there were other like in the bottom, there's always some leftovers. The leftovers somebody collected and they sold.
SPEAKER_03:Also the leftovers of the last seven games.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, probably, maybe, but there's probably a little bit of Charles in there. A couple of them, right?
SPEAKER_03:A couple pets.
SPEAKER_01:Anyway, great, screw you guys. It was a lot of fun. And uh I'm sure it was wicked. I punched the clown's flashlight. That was about it, because there's a there's a long hallway.
SPEAKER_03:Is that a euphemism?
SPEAKER_01:There was a long there was a long hallway after the the what's the who's the clown? The Gacy guy? They had a room for him. There's a long hallway, there's like 15 clown statues on the side, and I'm walking in front, and I just like looking at the ground, and a clown jumps out with a flashlight, and I just went like this.
SPEAKER_03:And you opened your mouth and you you punched that.
SPEAKER_01:I backhand slapped very gently his flashlight. Then I put my hands in my pocket and I grabbed the inside of my pockets and I put my head down. I walked the rest of the way through the clowns because I was worried about another one popping out. I was way too high to be in there. It was a good time though. So if you ever go to Vegas, go to Zach Bagan's haunted museum.
SPEAKER_03:Try out, try out this uh punching a clown's flashlight.
SPEAKER_01:I had a good time.
SPEAKER_03:Sure, I'm glad you did.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, I don't like how you're criticizing the artifacts that I saw.
SPEAKER_03:Uh I'm just saying I I would be skeptical that they're the actual things.
SPEAKER_01:No, in my mind, they're the actual things.
SPEAKER_03:Sure, then that's good. And it's your truth. Hey, it's your truth. It's my truth. And if you believe it, it's real. Yeah.
SPEAKER_00:Did you go to any other museums?
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, we went to a couple things. It was good. I don't want to talk about them anymore.
SPEAKER_03:I don't know why you're so upset that we are questioning the validity of the money. Because it was legitimate.
SPEAKER_00:All right without any skepticism, just like you believed him.
SPEAKER_01:What's his name? Dr. Kavorkian's van. I'm gonna put that in.
SPEAKER_00:I don't even know who Dr. Kavorkian is. He's the cool assisted suicide guy.
SPEAKER_01:He killed like 90 people before assisted suicide was a thing, and then he was arrested for me.
SPEAKER_00:He was a good dude. That's that's like 15 more than died in the tower in London. Like, that's not impressive.
SPEAKER_01:Okay, but he drove a van up to their house. Yeah, they came out to the van and killed them. They wanted to die.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah. Okay.
SPEAKER_01:So he murdered them essentially. And this is and this is the one thing I liked about it, though, is because that van was in there, all the stuff was in there, and the one guy was like, This will actually be probably in a history museum at some point because assisted suicide now is more commonly accepted, and it's legal.
SPEAKER_00:Ah, whatever you guys want. How did he kill them?
SPEAKER_01:Huh? How did he injection he played this certain song and then injected them uh with like different types of games?
SPEAKER_03:Made them docile. Mesmerized them. They fell asleep. And then he punched the bigger. There it is. Dr.
SPEAKER_01:Kavorkian's van called the Deathmobile from 1968 is in Zach Bagan's right there.
SPEAKER_00:Can I see it? Yeah. It's fucking text. Can you you don't have a picture of picture of the van?
SPEAKER_01:What does the van look like? It's uh like a Volkswagen Beetle. Uh but no, like one of those Beatles vans.
SPEAKER_03:Did it have the shag carpet?
SPEAKER_00:Uh if I go, I want to go in the back of a Volkswagen van.
SPEAKER_03:Well, when you go, because you're going to. Yeah. I don't know when because you're that's what he drove.
SPEAKER_01:That's what he drove to people's house and just like that piece of shit? Jump. Is that what that was like? Oh yeah, it is. But he but this was like probably a nice van back in the day, I would assume.
SPEAKER_03:Have you seen the new VW vans?
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, they're stupid.
SPEAKER_00:No, they scream hit liberal. Wow.
SPEAKER_01:Well that that doesn't seem right.
SPEAKER_00:No, they're like e-vans, aren't they? Yeah. Yeah. No thanks.
SPEAKER_03:Um you can't won't be able to buy those after 2035.
SPEAKER_00:I that would be when I leave Canada, if that is if that's real.
SPEAKER_03:Uh you'll be.
SPEAKER_00:That's not gonna happen. It's a 10 year later.
SPEAKER_01:That doesn't look can we talk about uh airplane crashes?
SPEAKER_00:Sure. There's a lot of them happening. No. No, there's not.
SPEAKER_03:There's that one in India that the guy didn't survive.
SPEAKER_05:What?
SPEAKER_03:Oh yeah. Did you find there was a news article saying that he lied about it and he he he like jumped in like to the area afterwards and said he was on the plane and he actually wasn't on the plane. Yeah. Damn it. Yeah. Damn it. So apparently that's a that's a lie.
SPEAKER_00:I thought it was kind of weird that one.
SPEAKER_03:Uh not just a little weird. That made no sense at all. It's like uh unbreakable.
SPEAKER_01:Uh but if you're in the back, you're fine.
SPEAKER_03:Of a plane. Not if it blows up.
SPEAKER_00:Not if you gotta both engines at 300 feet and smash into a hotel.
SPEAKER_03:300 feet, like you're like, that's not that that high. I but about the hot air balloon. Did you see that one?
SPEAKER_00:I saw that a hot air balloon crash.
SPEAKER_03:Oh, that was worse. I'm never getting a hot air balloon.
SPEAKER_00:Dude, there was one that flew right over my house two weekends ago. Yep. They look like they're having the time of their life.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, sure. You're doing until lights on fire and you Do you want to do like I'd do that? I'm not doing it. Yeah, I think I would. No. It seems like it's safe.
SPEAKER_00:It's relatively safe. Sure. How many people die per year in hot air balloons?
SPEAKER_01:Oh, let's let's Okay, or North America?
SPEAKER_00:World.
SPEAKER_01:World.
SPEAKER_03:I'm gonna say 35. Oh, that's a lot. You're way too high. Uh first of all, I don't think that there's many hot air balloons. No, there used to be.
SPEAKER_01:Remember back in the You know what I'm gonna say? None.
SPEAKER_03:I'm gonna say you're raw because somebody died this year. I'm gonna say three.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, it's difficult because the world's too big. We gotta we gotta do just North America. Here we go. US. US, right there.
SPEAKER_00:What are you using?
SPEAKER_01:One to two accidents per year. I'm using rock. Accidents or death? Oh, sorry. 775 accidents, one or two deaths. Oh, see, we're good to go. Yeah. I'll take those odds.
SPEAKER_00:I would say there's some years that probably have zero. Yeah, let's go on a hot air balloon.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, I will. I I I think it'd be fine. JB will come. I'm not coming. You're coming. I fucking hate heights. I hate heights so much. But yeah, I'll do it.
SPEAKER_00:I think if I'm suspended from a thin piece of fabric enclosing some helium, I'll be fine.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, but like they have a backup system, I assume, if the helium rips.
SPEAKER_00:What do you mean a back like a parachute?
SPEAKER_03:Have you seen the one that went down, dude? It starts on fire. Someone like jumps off the jumps off the side of it because they're burning alive, so they jumped out of it, and you see them flailing through the air till they hit the ground, and then the bucket detaches from the balloon part because it burns through the string, and then the whole bucket full of people falls to the ground from like a really high height.
SPEAKER_01:So, what if you're in the bucket and like the the balloon goes up and it and it's and it goes, and then the bucket starts falling? Oh my god. Are you watching it?
SPEAKER_03:You've never seen it, dude. It's terrifying. I'll never go in hot arm. That is the worst way to do it.
SPEAKER_01:You see you can't do anything about it. You're just you're just in it.
SPEAKER_03:And the guy's like flailing his arms all the way down. Yes, you do. Oh see, it's so what's worse, burning alive up there or just jumping?
SPEAKER_01:I I would take the burning until that point, and then I jump out.
SPEAKER_03:No.
SPEAKER_01:You know, and then just just tuck and roll. Yeah. 13 people survived. I didn't read that.
SPEAKER_00:In that balloon? This is what it says.
SPEAKER_01:That doesn't even be. I don't think you can fit 13 people in a hot air balloon.
SPEAKER_00:Well, maybe it's 13 people on the ground that I collided with.
SPEAKER_03:That 30 people in the bus that the thing landed on. That is terrible. Yeah. Exactly.
SPEAKER_00:I I Jason. Change your mind. That guy's falling.
SPEAKER_01:Well, yeah, but like, I think we're that's probably where what country was that in? Were the safety protocols like? Like, I'm pretty sure North America's got some pretty good safety protocols.
SPEAKER_00:Nah. I'm I'm out, bro. I told you. After watching that video, I'm like, nope. But it says it in this this news article says at least eight out of 21. So obviously 21 people in one hot air balloon? That seems like way too many.
SPEAKER_01:And then Grok also says that uh portion of Charles Manch's ashes are located in Zach Baggin's haunted mansion from Tom Tony Miller, friends of the Freeman to attend the funeral. Yeah, just it's real.
SPEAKER_03:I'm so sorry for doubting.
SPEAKER_01:Sorry, I I got way too into it and it was awesome. And uh I'm gonna go back. No hard air balloons. We're good.
unknown:Okay.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, told you. That's not a fun way to die. Have you seen the one of the guys on the windmill that catches on fire?
SPEAKER_03:No.
SPEAKER_00:No. Oh yeah. Guys working on like electricians or whatever they might have been working on the top of the windmill that then catches on fire and they have to make a decision of how they want to die.
SPEAKER_03:Those uh things like from far away are like kind of like, eh, whatever. And then you get close to them and you're like, holy crap, those are big.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah.
SPEAKER_03:Have you seen the video from the inside of one when they're looking up and it's windy? Does it move a lot? Oh, it moves an insane amount. So like looking straight like the staircase up the middle of it, uh, there's somebody to did a video of it, and it's like moving I I'd like to say feet, like bat and you can see the whole thing from the inside moving side to side.
SPEAKER_01:I don't like that.
SPEAKER_00:Do you think that people working on top of them have parachutes just in case? No. No. I feel like that's a good thing.
SPEAKER_01:Do you think if I was had that job, I would take a base jump just to think so. It just holds one, right?
SPEAKER_00:Just in case one catches on fire.
SPEAKER_03:Right, but then you jump, you throw out your chute, you get sucked into the actual the actual turning part. Just get off when it gets to the bottom dad. I don't know.
SPEAKER_00:That'd be a really shitty way to die, also.
SPEAKER_03:Why are we on this? Well, no, it isn't, it is, it is it is real final destination. Well, it is, but it isn't. Ooh, I don't know. I mean, there's a new final destination now.
SPEAKER_01:Like you you you end quick. It'll end quick. What part? When you land. Uh maybe. I don't know. Would you?
SPEAKER_03:Oh, from if you're all the way up, I think you you would automatically if you're falling down and you know that you're gonna die. I'd go head first. Yeah, that's what I was gonna say. Oh, yeah, you you we're on the same wavelength there.
SPEAKER_00:You guys no, stop.
SPEAKER_03:What do you gotta go with your legs? You just like you're gonna be too busy going like you just go penguin. You'd be able to make a decision arm straight down by your side and just like head head dive very straight into the ground. Massive ordnance penetrator right into the ground.
SPEAKER_01:Have you ever been on a plane though and thought, like, hey, if like like you really visualize the plane going down?
SPEAKER_03:Like when you're you're I try, I literally do everything not to think of that. Oh, I I've done that before. Like I like play solitaire to my thumbs are bleeding because I'm just I'm trying to keep my mind off of the thought that we might die.
SPEAKER_00:The day that Air India crashed, I flew on an airplane and I just tried to pretend that it hadn't just happened. That's fair. Well, you weren't in India, so it's probably okay. I don't think it had to do with the geographic location. Oh, okay. I think it had to do with Boeing.
SPEAKER_01:And it seems like if people wanted to do something to airplanes, it wouldn't be that hard for the city. And I was wondering that honestly, I I respect that the TSA people and all that stuff, but they're if they can shoot off a GPS. I can sneak things on. It's uh let's just be honest.
SPEAKER_00:No, come on, you can't tell me they can't hack the technology on an airplane. You don't have to sneak anything on.
SPEAKER_01:Or just like get another airplane from another airport and just fly it into a plane when it's taken off. There was a weird like a private, like I that's was my concern on the way back. I'm like, what's gonna happen? And I don't know why. Um like somebody like a private airstrip's gonna have a private plane and they will just crash it into a plane, take it. Like there's airports are not safe. I just it drives me nuts. They're not safe.
SPEAKER_03:Um M night Shamalon, Shamanilan. I had a recent movie and it was weird, but it was like people in a cabin and four people show up. Like right now. I want to see that. Did you watch it? Yeah, I did. Uh Batista's in it. Yeah. And there I I can't, I don't want I guess I won't read it if you want to watch it. But I don't. Okay. He does though, so I won't.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, I really want to see that movie.
SPEAKER_03:Okay, I'll show them off then. You should watch it.
unknown:Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:Can you just can you just go like this and tell me? Oh, if it's a big oh, it's gonna be an M Night Shyamalan twist, isn't it?
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, there's a whole bunch of I can't, there's a twist. There's twists in it. So if I say um second sixth sense, guess what? Guess what? What?
SPEAKER_01:I see dead people.
unknown:He's dead.
SPEAKER_01:Oh the whole time? The whole time. Oh shit.
SPEAKER_03:If you haven't watched that movie yet, I'm sorry, because it is worth watching. The sixth one.
SPEAKER_01:Was that his first big one where it's like M. Night Shamlon?
SPEAKER_03:This is who I am, and this is Yeah, and it was it was a mind-bend. It was bl mind-blowing. It was super, super original for the time.
SPEAKER_00:Weren't you going to the theater to see a movie before after the last time we did a podcast? I went and watched uh Mission Impossible.
SPEAKER_03:I like watching movies. Nobody wants to go with me. And I think it's weird if I go by myself. No, it's not, it's so much fun.
SPEAKER_00:Dude, last Saturday when it was raining, the theater was bad. What'd you go to? I walked by it. Oh.
SPEAKER_03:Okay. I went to Mission Impossible. I want there's a whole bunch of ones I want to go watch. Uh the new Superman comes out in a couple weeks. Ooh, that could be good. I think it's gonna be terrible, to be honest. And I hate saying that out loud because I will not. Dude, have you seen the extended trailer?
SPEAKER_01:Have I seen any James Gunn movie?
SPEAKER_03:Have you seen the extended trailer of it looks like garbage? And I really hope I'm wrong. Because I want I love Superman.
SPEAKER_01:But James Gunn does a really good job of making it like I hope so because like real.
SPEAKER_03:No, the I I hope so because the trailer looks terrible. Oh no. Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:We just finished our second watch through of Peacemaker again with my wife. It's such a good show, man. Like he he he does such a good job. Yeah, he's yeah, he's okay. That's James Gunn too. It just makes it real. I I have a really good high hopes for the Superman.
SPEAKER_00:Okay. Peacemaker's the show with uh John Cena. John Cena.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, I'm not it's a it's a little it's a little woke. It's a little woke. Yeah. But it's so yeah, uh second season comes out next week.
SPEAKER_03:Everything is yeah, uh Last of Us 2, season two.
SPEAKER_01:Oh my god.
SPEAKER_03:I'm not I don't even I don't think I'm gonna watch it.
SPEAKER_01:We finished it and it's hard. The last four episodes are so dumb.
SPEAKER_03:It's just it's not I don't think I'm gonna watch it. I like really like season one. They did a good job. It matched the game to for the most extent, and I just I think I'm gonna leave it at that because I've seen so much bad stuff about season two. It's terrible. Okay.
SPEAKER_01:They they go full woke. Yeah, that's what I heard.
SPEAKER_03:That's why I'm not a mom.
SPEAKER_01:Uh yeah, it's bad.
SPEAKER_03:It is it yeah. Okay, won't watch it. Full woke.
SPEAKER_01:Oh, it it does. It does.
SPEAKER_03:And have you seen the meme about the actress though? About what's her name? I don't know. Oh, yeah. Ellie. Uh this the character's name's Ellie, and she's they casted this strange-looking girl. She is strange. She's got like the biggest forehead, and there's this meme where uh every time what's the dude's name uh in the game?
SPEAKER_01:I don't remember. The the the main guy anyway.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, every time he turns around, her forehead's bigger. So, like, so she shows up and he's like, Oh, oh, what uh did something happen? Like, are you okay? She's like, Yeah, what's wrong? He's like, Well, like your forehead seems like a little bit bigger than normal. She's like, Oh, stop it. It's it's fine, I can find stop playing. And so he turns around and like, oh, the zombies turns around and say, Oh my god. And it got like a foot longer, and it just keeps getting bigger and bigger. And then at one point it's like got veins in it. He's like, Use your telekinesis to stop these things. What are you doing? She's like, I don't have telekinesis. She's like, You must look at your head. It's it's so funny. Joel. Joel, thank you.
SPEAKER_01:But so in in the game, is she is she a lesbian in the game? Um because they leaned into it hard in season two, like crazy. I'm thinking trying to think of the well, that's when they all became that's like that's I did I didn't understand that.
SPEAKER_03:That's not that's not unrealistic these days. Sure, I get it.
SPEAKER_01:No, but in the first season, she's young, right?
SPEAKER_03:But I think the second season in the game, she's like 12 years old. Uh I can't remember how old she was the game. And in the second Last of Us game, I don't remember. There might be like a girl love interest in that, but that makes sense.
SPEAKER_01:In the first season, though, had the remember the guy from Parks and Recreation? Him and uh he had a he had a partner there. Yeah, and that was a good episode. That was a really good episode. Probably the best episode. Yeah, like that was an amazing episode.
SPEAKER_00:That was a good example. But did they lean into her being a lesbian? Oh, which has nothing to do with any of the actual things. I think so. That's I think that was the problem. Like, who cares?
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, exactly. Like that that that episode with those two dudes in it, like it was amazing because it was like it like brought the emotion to the story and kind of showed I remember I cried a bit. Me too. I was like, it was like really, really good episode. And Nick Offerman. And because it was like it made sense to the storyline, like it made sense to like him and like anyway, emotion and human emotion, that kind of stuff. So it was But when it makes sense, who yeah, like who cares? Like, but when it's just like seems like it's just a gratuitous, like thrown in there because they need to, it's frustrating.
SPEAKER_01:That's that's what it feels like. Yeah. So she's 14 in the first season, 19 in season two, so it's okay because she's season two's five years later.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah. Well, that would be the map.
SPEAKER_01:That's like that's if you I can go to AI or Grok for that. Yeah, I think it's five years later. It's not worth it. Like the first episode or two were good, but that's it.
SPEAKER_00:So I don't remember I played the game a good portion of the game, and I don't quite remember how it ends.
SPEAKER_01:Or where it comes out. I played the first the first game, but I didn't get it.
SPEAKER_03:You watch you watch season one? Yeah. So it ends where they get to the where they're going, the doc he realizes the doctors are gonna kill her to get her brain. So he shoots the doctors, and then he drags her out of there, and then he basically they make the journey back to uh where his brother was.
SPEAKER_01:Do you play Joel in the game? Like do you shoot all those doctors and stuff? That's that that was it was I that was a great way. Like that was a great game.
SPEAKER_03:It was an amazing game. It was the first time like you're making like real decisions. You're like, uh no, you can't like boom, shoot the dude in the face. You're like, I should I suppose to do that? I don't even know.
SPEAKER_00:That's awesome. It's unfortunate when they let these games get diluted by movies, so it's hard though.
SPEAKER_03:Like uh that's the thing about the series was good because it could actually uh like a movie wouldn't couldn't have done you couldn't have done that game in a movie. So the series uh hopefully you're like okay, well they can keep the detail because they got like eight hours or ten hours to do it versus you know two. Um but they still screw that up sometimes.
SPEAKER_00:Murder bot on Apple's pretty good.
SPEAKER_03:I want to watch that. Uh stick is another one I wanted to watch.
SPEAKER_02:Okay. Yeah, okay. Yeah.
SPEAKER_03:Uh severance, I'm like three episodes in and I'm just like I'm not fully like I'm still I'm still gonna watch it, but I'm like, eh.
SPEAKER_00:That had high reviews, did it not?
SPEAKER_03:Completely. That's why I started watching it.
SPEAKER_00:What's it about?
SPEAKER_03:Essentially, it's about people who when they work at a company, they go through this process called severance where their brain gets severed, so their work life and their personal life are completely unknown to each other. So while you're at work, you literally know nothing about yourself out in the outside world. All you know is work. That's cool. And when you're outside, all you know is you work there. So like when you show up to work, you show up to the place that you work, you get in an elevator, and in that process, your brain switches, and all of a sudden you come out of the elevator and you know nothing about you as a person.
SPEAKER_01:But do they know their name and stuff? Like, is it just like completely?
SPEAKER_03:I think they get told their name.
SPEAKER_01:No way.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, they know nothing about themselves, they know nothing about if they have a family on the outside, if they nothing. And so obviously that creates some problems.
SPEAKER_00:Do you think that's what's happening at Area 51 when people go to work? I don't know.
SPEAKER_03:Maybe, maybe that explains a lot of things.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah. It explains everything. Have you guys listened to Joe Rowan and Jesse Nichols? No. It's good. Highly recommend it.
SPEAKER_01:I'm just listening to Bobby Lee and Andy or Andrew Santino while Solomon's in the two.
SPEAKER_00:That sounds not great.
SPEAKER_01:I enjoy their podcast a lot.
SPEAKER_00:You have a weird taste in podcasting. I just do what I want. I don't know. I don't know. But you go like Sean Ryan to Theo Vaughn, who by the way, like choked out a fan. What? Probably deserved it. Did he? I don't know. It was some some thing on the Instagrams where he like grabbed a guy by the neck that was being a douche, probably. Probably.
SPEAKER_01:Okay. Yeah, but if you're a celebrity though, at some point you're gonna Oh, dude. I feel like people are idiots, and you'll you'll crack like all of us if we are celebrities, we would snap eventually break.
SPEAKER_00:More people need to get grabbed by the neck.
SPEAKER_01:I think so, for sure.
SPEAKER_00:I think so. Like Justin Bieber is about to grab somebody by the neck.
SPEAKER_03:So do you think that he's that famous? Yeah, completely. It would suck. And do you think that he is like super messed up on drugs? Or yes. Like he looks like it, obviously.
SPEAKER_00:But like how else is he gonna escape his horrible reality where he was sexually abused by fucking Diddy? Yeah.
unknown:It's kind of sad.
SPEAKER_01:I have not been following that trial at all. Is that true?
SPEAKER_03:Uh I haven't been following the trial at all. Yeah, I don't know. I'm pretty sure. But that's the allegations, and like apparently some of his songs like allude to it. Interesting. That guy that's just sad. Like that kid, because that kid, when he got like found, he was like 12, 13. I remember his YouTube video. Yeah. Impress and again in just a and still an impressive singer. Like he's just good a good singer, whether you like his music or not. But um the industry, like it's crazy. The industry can take you know an innocent kid and just crush them. Completely crush them. It's sad.
SPEAKER_01:You know what's a good uh Instagram follow is Brittany Spears.
SPEAKER_03:I can't.
SPEAKER_01:Oh my god, so bad.
SPEAKER_00:Off the wall.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, no, I can't do that.
SPEAKER_00:It's interesting that these people can be so talented, but just there's something breaks in them and the talent just.
SPEAKER_04:But do you think that's never had you go?
SPEAKER_03:Do you think that's because of the artistic because like there's that idea like because of the artistic side, it kind of is like you have to be a different type of person, and maybe that uh leads to maybe a little bit more craziness or something? Or do you think it's like literally the industry that they're in is such a high pressure money, the producers are gonna you want to use you to get big and make money, and so then they put you in situations you shouldn't be in at that age or whatever the thing is, and that just slowly erodes you as a human?
SPEAKER_00:I don't know, because there's like from celebrities in general, and I despise celebrities, so I don't pay a lot of attention to them. There's the odd outlier that is pretty well adjusted, does well, right? But most of them are funny.
SPEAKER_03:But it's weird to say that you despise celebrities because I think a lot of uh I despise the position of celebrities. Sure, and I and I I think because the with it's weird to say I guess you despise them because in a lot of sense, most of them probably had no intention of being that or getting that. They had a talent for like for the thing music, so they were just a talented musician, and because of that they got the attention, and it just that just comes hand in hand, but it's like as a you know, as a person, they're like so like Bill, I think of Billie Eilish, like she was like her first album came out when she was 14. Literally, her brother made it, they made it in this tiny crappy house in a little tiny room of this like really old house, and you go back and listen to that music, and it is just like in how was this how is this made in that position? You know, like in that little tiny room at that age, and be produced and and become this gigantic thing, and then then that blows up, and then she becomes kind of gets sucked more into like the whole industry of it. So it's it's just you're not gonna come out normal. I don't know, yeah.
SPEAKER_00:You're not, and I think what I just maybe what I should say I despise the image of people just like flocking me like a lot of people. Yeah, but that's that's not the celebrity, that's the people. But it's like celebrity to di celebrity did them. I don't know what the fuck it's called.
SPEAKER_01:Celebrity d disms. Is that what it's yeah, but that's not the celebrity, that's the people who are idiots.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, but in society, the fact that we idolize celebrities. Yeah, it's weird, right?
SPEAKER_01:Like, you hate that. If you were to take a famous celebrity and just have them walk through our mall, people would lose their mind. Yeah.
SPEAKER_00:Like, and and and I'm not saying I'm immune to that. Like you would be all fanboy, like, Brad Pitt, please. Can I can I boop your flashlight?
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, yeah. Not with Brad Pitt, but like there'd be celebrities that I would be like probably starstruck with. Yeah, whereas I think I other than that one grappler and yeah, so you you saw a like semi- would you say like a B level celebrity in the jujitsu world and got all fanboyish, and you think I'm gonna go nuts over Brad Pitt? Can you imagine if you saw like an A-list? If what what's your white-haired guy, Gordon Ryan, showed up, you're not gonna be like this guy off the deep end.
SPEAKER_00:Let me take a picture. So so here's the problem like somebody that like we I like you run into like I did that with Andy Stump, too. Fucking.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, so you're you're you're the bad one here.
SPEAKER_03:It it's it's weird because I I feel the same way. Like, you're like, oh no, I'll just be like normal. Like, hey man, how's it going? Like, you just feel like you could be a normal person around them. What's up, bro? Yeah, what's up, bro? I don't see any stuff.
SPEAKER_01:I don't see any point in talking to them. It's weird. Like, I just feel like they deal with so much that they're not gonna fucking remember what I do.
SPEAKER_03:I kind of want to go down to Kalispel just in the hopes of what if I go to the Black Rifle coffee shop that I run to Andy.
SPEAKER_01:And what do you what would you say? Andy's in there, you're in there. What are you doing?
SPEAKER_03:Hi, man. Nice to meet you.
SPEAKER_01:I'm also a human being.
SPEAKER_00:I love your podcast. Cool. Yeah. Can you guys play? Can you guys play us out? You be Andy in UB.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, sure. Am I making the coffee?
unknown:No.
SPEAKER_00:Well, Andy doesn't make fucking coffee. He owns the place.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, I'm I'm just behind the counter.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah.
SPEAKER_03:Good morning.
SPEAKER_01:What's up, bro?
SPEAKER_03:Uh hey, Andy. Nice to meet you, man. It's good to meet you. Uh, I listen to your podcast. I really like it.
SPEAKER_01:That's cool, buddy. Thank you. I don't I don't listen to yours. I I also have a podcast. Sorry. I also have a podcast.
SPEAKER_03:Maybe we should maybe we should do a collab one day.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, brother. I hear what you say. No, I like we'll have to go through my agent and stuff. And here's just dude, he doesn't have an agent. Yeah, I don't fucking know.
SPEAKER_00:That was actually a very accident.
SPEAKER_01:But yeah, I feel like that interaction, what you just did, is all they need. Like that's it. Hey, completely the problem. I appreciate your work. That's awesome. Exactly.
SPEAKER_03:The problem becomes, and to be fair, when you met that grappling guy, you tried to do that. I tried to do that. And I tried to leave. Yes. So he he very much tried to be like, hey, dude, I know this is weird. I just wanted to say I really like your videos. That's all I want. That's all I would want to bog you. He's like, Oh, where hey, what's your name? Where are you from? So he kind of like grabbed in and wanted to because you were the normal one. Well, because honestly, it's probably because he doesn't get that very often, first of all, because he's not like one meaning. He wasn't like a superstar. Yeah, like he's walking around, no one's going up to him. So it's not like he's like insanely famous. Uh it's just this weirdo mechanism. So but so then he went out of his way to be like, because he could see that you were like kind of like, okay, don't want to bug you. He's like, no, no, man, what's your name? Where are you from? And so that he he drew him into a conversation.
SPEAKER_01:So how you feel is how those A-less celebrities would feel when people try to draw them into conversation.
SPEAKER_03:No, I felt like I was wasting their time.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah. Yeah, that's how I feel too.
SPEAKER_03:But obviously it was obvious that he didn't feel that way. It was just like kind of like, oh, where because he wasn't like, oh, cool, thanks, man. Have a good day. He was very much like, oh, what thanks. Well, it's awesome. What's going on? And wanted to talk. Where'd you train? Where are you from when I was going to be? Well, to be fair, before he went and talked to him, uh Champagne basically had to like force him to go. No, I think Champagne went up to him. He's like, hey man, nice to meet you. My name is Matt. Such a bitch. Uh, this was my buddy uh CJ over here. He really liked it wingman.
SPEAKER_00:He literally, he literally did.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, he did. It was hilarious. That's good for him. What a pro move. Because he was gonna keep walking past, and he's just like, oh, but here's here's why. That's so-and-so. I don't even know his name.
SPEAKER_00:At the at the like the base of it, here's why. Because I don't have anything valuable to say to this person. You do. No, I hey man, I love your shit.
SPEAKER_01:You should have pulled up a random uh jujitsu video from YouTube. Have you tried this or something like that?
SPEAKER_03:It's me rolling with some dude yesterday. Do you like my jujitsu, bro? Hey, do you want to grapple sometime?
SPEAKER_01:It's weird because you know at the end of the interest. You know at the end of that interaction, there's gonna be like that's it. Like you're you're not gonna continue anything on, it's just like a quick interaction, you're done. So there's almost no point, I guess. Is that why totally right?
SPEAKER_00:Like, and and and again, who does it benefit? Does it benefit him? Maybe, maybe it feels good. Does it benefit me?
SPEAKER_03:In that case, I think, I think I agree with you. I think it probably feels good. Because again, I don't, he's not a guy who everyone recognizes. So for him, it's like, oh, that's neat that's needed. Someone to watch my stuff.
SPEAKER_00:Right now, replace that because Eddie Bravo was there. Completely replace that with Eddie Bravo, yeah. Yeah, I'd be like, fuck. Right? Like, I I I would just be I would just keep walking. Honestly, I think if I saw Jocko, I'd be like, oh, hey.
SPEAKER_01:I've thought about seeing like really famous celebrities like like that in that environment, and all I would do is probably what you were talking about. Like I thought about, hey, thanks for everything you do, and then just keep walking. Like just just like a little bit of like I appreciate you type thing.
SPEAKER_00:Which I think if I think you would do it, but I think it would be effective if you committed to just that, right? Oh, for sure.
SPEAKER_01:And then walk away. I'm not asking for a picture. I don't care. Like I could care less about that.
SPEAKER_03:And that's that's a thing. Like you that's I don't I don't know why you want to do that, like run into people like that, but so if that's it would be like purely, hey, I I value your stuff. I think what you're doing is cool. Yeah, I love your store, whatever, right?
SPEAKER_01:I saw Don Cherry in an elevator once. He walked in the same elevator as me, and that's all I did. He was like, hey, thanks for everything you did. My dad's a big fan of your stuff since he was a kid, too, and I just walked away.
SPEAKER_00:Did you hear Don Cherry's last podcast episode sign off the other day? No. Why would I not hear that? All right, I was on the news. Him and his kid do a podcast. How old is Don Cherry? Oh my god. So listening to him sign off because it's 91, he's 91. Yeah, him and his kid are like, this is the last episode, we're done. This has been 300 and some episodes. He sounds so old. It was sad. Yeah.
SPEAKER_03:Well, he's 91. He is old. Uh, I don't think I'll ever get to 91. I think you will.
SPEAKER_01:He did 313 episodes of his podcast.
SPEAKER_00:And the sign-off is very depressing. It feels like Canada signing off.
SPEAKER_01:Oh, I don't like that.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah. He probably feels like he it is Canada signing off. For sure he does. Yeah. Yeah, that's insane. And he got in trouble on uh the hockey.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, he got trouble for telling he said if you come to our country, buy a poppy. Exactly. Yeah, yeah. Which fired me up. I was like, yeah. If you come to our country, buy a poppy. Exactly. Yeah, that fired me up. I was like, that's good. Yeah, that's gonna be really sad when he dies. Sometimes I look at people in our life, like people, figures like that, and just kind of benchmark, be like, oh man.
SPEAKER_01:Because he's one that's been here for all like our whole time.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, or like uh did you guys watch Grey's Anatomy? Uh yes. So when it first started. Yeah, McDemy. Yeah, um, Eric Dane, I think his name is.
SPEAKER_01:Is he the short hair or the long hair?
SPEAKER_00:He's the shorter hair one that was like Salt and Pepper. Salt and Pepper. Yeah, that guy.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, okay.
SPEAKER_00:He's got ALS. Oh shit. Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:Oh, that sucks. Yeah, that's not gonna be fun. I can't think of which guy that is.
SPEAKER_01:Um after after McDreamy left. He was in another show too, though, wasn't he? Yeah, that's what I'm trying to think. I'm just trying to give it back to you because you know it's a good point.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, you touched Dr.
SPEAKER_01:Morky and Savannah, you didn't care. That guy. Not him. I don't know why he came up. Dr. Mark Sloan, that guy's not. No, it's the second guy. It's the second one in. This is the guy talking about. No, that's McDreamy, that's McStreamy.
SPEAKER_00:Oh, I didn't know those two. McSteamy has ALS. I think McDreamy's still healthy.
SPEAKER_01:Got it. Okay, wait, just let's figure this out. Eric Dane is Oh, yeah, he looks like garbage there.
SPEAKER_03:He's only 52.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah. He does not that's for 52, he looks good there. That's only nine years for me.
SPEAKER_03:Oof. And you gotta make it past 91.
SPEAKER_01:I know.
SPEAKER_00:Why don't you think you're gonna make it past 91?
SPEAKER_03:I think cancer will get me eventually, if I'm being honest.
SPEAKER_01:I'm I'm I think it's gonna get us all. I'm pretty set in the fact that that is probably what's gonna take.
SPEAKER_03:I think it's gonna get everybody.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah.
SPEAKER_03:Because why cancer? Because of the world we live in. Because uh 5Gs, 5G. No, I don't know. Like literally everything I think is probably like all our technology is probably not good for us.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, there's no long-term studies into any of this stuff. I've had a couple like PET CT scans too, and that's like a thousand X-rays. So I'm just I I know I'm done eventually. We all are it'll probably be cancer, but isn't there a thing if like you lived cancer would get everybody if they lived long enough? I think so, yeah. Isn't that like a thing?
SPEAKER_03:Uh oh, this leads to get to a good question. Um, I wrote this down today as I was thinking about doing a podcast today.
SPEAKER_01:Oh, I've got a great question to finish, by the way.
SPEAKER_00:Okay, how many owls?
SPEAKER_01:Oh, they're gonna tell you more stories, but you're just shutting them down, so that's fine.
SPEAKER_00:What story am I shutting down? I love your stories. Uh your museum stories are the best. Museum stories sucking flashlights left, right, and center.
SPEAKER_01:No, it was a really cool museum.
SPEAKER_03:So there's a lot of things we've talked about uh on this podcast over the 70 episodes that we've done uh that we know we probably should be doing for ourselves, like health things, wellness things, whatever. Uh and we probably have done them off and on because we you know lose that momentum and we go I'm not staring at you, I'm just talking. You're setting this up.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, why do you look like I feel some emotions about to come up? No, there's no emotion.
SPEAKER_03:Uh the my question is was today while I was in the gym. I was thinking, what is one current thing that you are not doing daily that you know that you should be and would be willing to commit to for the next 30 days with the three of us, and we'll put some money on it.
SPEAKER_01:It doesn't even be the same thing, not the same thing.
SPEAKER_03:No, it can be whatever. It could be something that you know that you you would benefit from doing daily. You're not currently doing it because you're lazy or just haven't been finding the time to do it, and that if you for the next 30 days from now till whatever 30 days is out, you'll say that you're gonna do it every single day. And if you miss a day, you it's fifty bucks. Not per day, it's fifty bucks if you miss a day.
SPEAKER_00:I was gonna say no, it's fifty bucks.
SPEAKER_03:So, like if we're gonna say per day. No. 50. Total? Yeah, if you fail, it's fifty dollars. And so if nobody fails, then I guess we have the money. But if somebody fails, or two of us fail, all three of us fail, it's 150 bucks we can use for something for the podcast.
SPEAKER_00:Okay. Does it have to be a habit that should be repeated daily?
SPEAKER_03:Yeah. It has to be a healthy habit. It has to be something that you know that you want you value or that you could that you would want to do.
SPEAKER_01:Um I got mine. Okay.
SPEAKER_03:Do you I think I have mine too.
SPEAKER_01:Like it has to be health related.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, like wellness or health related, I would say.
SPEAKER_01:Come on. You got it.
SPEAKER_03:Doesn't have to be health, it could be wellness too, like a mental thing.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah. I'm gonna throw mine out first because I feel like mine's very minor in in comparison to what you guys might have in mind. Okay, go. Mine is like a good 20 to 30 minute stretching session. Okay. Oh, I like that. I started. So which one? 20 or 30 minutes. Uh oh fuck. 30 just seems like I said I originally wanted to say 30, but that's a long time. 20 or 30.
SPEAKER_03:You gotta pick up.
SPEAKER_01:Okay, okay. 30. 30 30 minutes of stretching per day.
SPEAKER_03:Per day for the next 30 days. Boom. That's his.
SPEAKER_01:I can I can break it up. 50 in the morning, 50, whatever.
SPEAKER_03:As long as it's 30 a day.
SPEAKER_01:I'm in.
SPEAKER_03:Uh starting tomorrow. And if it you fail, it's 50 bucks.
SPEAKER_00:Yep. I'm leaning towards meditation. I thought I thought that would be your thing. Because that's but I do that like not every day, but fairly clearly. Right, and it's fine.
SPEAKER_03:Like the calm app, I'm assuming.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, sometimes. I should be doing it every day. Okay. That's like the number one thing that jumped out at me.
SPEAKER_03:Okay. Okay, then do it. So are you committing to that's what you're gonna do every single day for the next 30 days?
SPEAKER_00:Oh, that's gonna be tough. Yeah.
SPEAKER_03:Oh, I like it. Yeah. Okay. And mine is going to be breathwork.
SPEAKER_00:Oh.
SPEAKER_03:I I've been wanting to commit to it daily. Uh, and the reason I thought of this is because some of the crazy studies they've done with like uh cancer and like how sometimes this breath work stuff can actually kill clear your body of some crazy things, and it might be all not real, but it seems interesting. So, uh, and that for me is like I think it's like a 12-minute uh thing per day. So it's not that not that bad. I just never do it. How are we gonna track that? Just on our system up.
SPEAKER_01:If I don't do it, I'll be honest.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, like starting tomorrow.
SPEAKER_01:Oh, but what if we get like three days in, we miss a day? Is it 50 bucks and we just start over?
SPEAKER_03:No, you're done. Well, I mean you're doing it.
SPEAKER_01:We're doing rebuys or we can buy them back in if we do rebuys. No, no, I I think 30 30, and that's it. All the stuff we can fit in. Uh yeah. All of our stuff is half an hour max.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, for sure.
SPEAKER_01:We're good.
SPEAKER_03:Okay. 30 days. If you don't do it, it's$50 towards the podcast pot. What is today? It's gonna be the most money the podcast ever made. If you are listening and you would like to commit to a habit that you want to do, yeah, because then if they don't do it, they can pay the podcast$50. I like it. Let us know in person if you know us, because most of you do, or by email or Instagram, that you're also joining us on our journey. And I know you probably don't listen to this the second that we get it out. So starting from whatever day you listen to this, if you decide you're gonna commit to something in your life, it can be literally 10 minutes a day for 30 days that you know is gonna be beneficial to you, join us. And if you don't do it, if you say you're gonna do it and you don't do it, just give us fifty bucks. Pretty easy. Seems like a win-win. Seems like a win-win for everybody here, right? Anyway, that's what I was thinking about this today at in the gym. I was like, 'Cause there's just always these things that we keep saying we want to do.
SPEAKER_00:What if they do it and we don't do it? Do they benefit from the money we inject into the pot? They'll benefit because we're it'll make the podcast better. Yeah.
SPEAKER_03:Something we'll buy something that's maybe we'll buy that camera.
SPEAKER_00:Yes. So this is like you're paying us just for accountability.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, completely.
unknown:Yeah.
SPEAKER_00:I love it.
SPEAKER_03:Or and and or we could like if you want us to like yell at you or something, be accountable. We could be like that, uh, what's that dude that calls people and tells them bad news? Bad new John tell John breaks bad news. Have you seen that guy? Yes. Oh, he's amazing. And he's like, he's got a whole, he makes money off of it. Like that's insane. People pay him. And now his YouTube is big and his Instagram is big. I didn't know he got bad. Oh, dude, he's huge. And so people like, hey, hey, uh, is this uh CJ? Yeah, CJ, I'm just uh I got some bad news. Uh John thinks you smell real bad and uh never wants to be around you ever again, and he tells you you should shower, all right? Okay, oh okay, thanks, man. Cool, all right, love you. He always says that. All right, love you. That's awesome. Anyways for like you can say it back. He's awesome. He's if you don't follow him, you should look at him. I think it's like John breaks bad news.
SPEAKER_01:What's the what's there's an app you can like pay not like celebrities and guys like him? Cameo? Yes, that's what it is. We should go on cameo. Yeah, right. We should go on cameo.
SPEAKER_00:Have the average superior podcast hosts come and talk to you.
SPEAKER_01:That might be our break, though. Come on.
SPEAKER_03:Uh, haven't looked. We should actually I'm actually curious. We should look at our um because you know how you can see where our uh things being listened to. So we got a course recently with some outer towners, uh good guys from the States. And uh Did you give them an episode or did you like just free reign pick? Uh well they got given shirts.
SPEAKER_01:No, but I mean, did you tell them, hey, this episode's good? Let's start with this.
SPEAKER_03:No, they're just gonna listen to listen to someone drive home.
SPEAKER_00:We gotta take down like the first ten episodes. No, whatever.
SPEAKER_01:Like the first 60, we're just just got them right out.
SPEAKER_03:So anyway, if you're listening from uh the states, thanks for listening.
SPEAKER_01:Do you remember how we had that one listen in Mexico? Uh probably was it you? No, I found out who it was, though. Who was it? One of our friends named Charity. She's in Mexico. There we go. Yeah, she's awesome. Thanks for listening. Thanks, Charity. That's sweet.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:Uh I thought it was an actual like maybe somebody who was living in Mexico. Yeah, of course not. People going on holidays.
SPEAKER_00:I look at the map though, and there's just, you know, if there's any Europe.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, if there's any in Greece right now, my cousin's in Greece. Oh, okay. So he's if you're listening, thanks for listening. That's cool. Uh yeah. That's usually what it is. It's not somehow Europe has discovered the average superior podcast. Maybe we blow up over there. Maybe we blow up over there.
SPEAKER_01:Like Baxtery Boys were big in Europe for like a year before they ever made it to the States.
SPEAKER_03:I went to a Baxtery Boys concert once, and that's great. It was not good. Well, I was okay, it was okay, but I was like very it was I was out of place.
SPEAKER_01:Oh, I I I just went to New Kids on the Block and I felt like I belonged there. And all there were were like 40 to 50 year old moms. And it was me just in a bat in a new kids t-shirt, and I felt like I was one of them. It was awesome.
SPEAKER_03:Did you put a wig on?
SPEAKER_01:No. No. But I obstructed the view of the people behind me because they refused to stand up and uh I didn't really care.
SPEAKER_00:Oh, you're one of those people.
SPEAKER_01:Well, no, no, no, no, no, no. No. Here's the thing is that we're in the stadium and like it's one of those stand-up sit-down concerts because they have some like some ballads and some fast, like faster songs or whatever. And then they come out, and my wife is this is her band. She stands up, the the mom behind beside her stands up, who's there with her, like her 15-year-old boy, and we're like second level first row, so we dictate the standing and sitting for the entire section, right? We do. We stand up, I look, I'm dancing, I turn around, and like all the people behind us are fucking sitting down. Every other section in the whole place, we're standing up.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, they're sitting down because they're 40 to 50 years old, they're tired.
SPEAKER_01:They were not, they were younger, but however, I don't believe they would have enjoyed standing for long periods of time. And so obese. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. They're fat. And then so I sit down, and then I was never been so proud of my wife. And she's like, then then they they do some old newer stuff, which kind of sucks. Whatever, we're all sitting down, and then they they run to step by step. That comes on, and my wife looks at me, she looks behind, and she's like, fuck this, and she stands up and just starts dancing, and so the mom did behind her, and they were the only two in her whole section standing up dancing. Good for her, and the entire other theater was, and I looked at her, I'm like, I'm so proud of my wife, that's awesome. Good for her. She got into it. But yeah, but I I really enjoyed the boy band. I've never been to a boy band concert. Um like the coordinated dancing, the theatrics of it. I'm like, this is really cool. They did put a lot of work into it, it seemed really cool.
SPEAKER_03:The production, the best production value concert I went to was Pink in Anaheim. It was like that's where she like flies around the freaking uh stadium on trapeze stuff. It was pretty interesting. Uh and but the best sounding concert I've been to, uh you're gonna laugh at me for this. Uh, is Josh Groben.
SPEAKER_05:Oh.
SPEAKER_03:Oh, because of the like was it a small theater? Uh no, it was the Saddle Dome. Oh, okay. Uh, but like he sounds exactly the same as like being like on a CB. Sweet voice, though. He's just like ridiculously good singing.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah. I'm not gonna make fun of you.
unknown:I'm not gonna make fun of you.
SPEAKER_01:Well, it's live music. I'll go to any live music I can do. I can appreciate it. Anything at all. And I just love it. I went to the black guy piece. I had no interest in new kids, and I had the best time of my life. Yeah, and I've listened to their songs the other day when I was making food because I was doing it.
SPEAKER_00:You were talking shit about them before you were they're not good.
SPEAKER_01:They're not like I don't like any of their songs, but live, I like them all.
unknown:Okay.
SPEAKER_01:It's a different experience.
SPEAKER_00:I agree.
SPEAKER_01:Like being at a concert with a group of people who are all happy to be there.
SPEAKER_00:It's just kind of just like being at concerts where everybody's sitting down and just enjoying it. Oh, you're that guy.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, like I just uh that Nathaniel Rate lift was the best stand-sit ratio of a concert I've ever had. Yeah because those like some of his songs are kind of you stand up and then some are sitting, and it was awesome. But more for like people like you, I guess sit the whole time.
SPEAKER_03:It drives me crazy how expensive concerts are. Because like I I really wanted to go to Morgan Walland in Edmonton, and I'm like, I don't want to spend it was like 400 bucks a ticket. Holy. And I just like I don't want to spend like I I don't want to spend that kind of money. But then I I don't know.
SPEAKER_01:No, you do. You do so the these were 400 bucks a ticket, and I had no interest, but I loved it. Bruno Mars is going, he's one of my favorite artists. Yeah, it would be amazing. In October, those tickets are 600 in the shitty seats, and I'm still I would we're pricing out to go because I really want to see that.
SPEAKER_03:And that's in Vegas too.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, he's doing the the same place.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, I don't know why. It's because like it's like I read that book, Dive Zero, I talk about experiences, and then I just don't want to get off my wallet. Do it like seriously, it's just like I don't want to spend that money. It's like okay, I so it's 800 bucks for tickets, and we gotta fly up there or drive up there and we gotta stay overnight, so then we're talking like two grand by the time we're done with done the weekend, and you're like, ah, that's up quickly.
SPEAKER_01:But that's the like this is the first trip we went on because we got there, it was only three days, and that first half day was like everything is so damn expensive down there. And my wife was kind of like doing the the math in her head, and like I was, and you could see it was affecting our mood, and so like we're two hours in, and I just I told you this, but I didn't tell you like the best thing I've ever done on vacation was I just said, Hey, honey, we're not looking at prices. I'm just gonna pull out 60 hours, dump it on the credit card, and we're done. We are not thinking about a single price tag for two days, and we had a we had the best time.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, when you're when you're concerned about money, Vegas is not the place to go. Uh the first time we went to that bachelor party, it was like every if you just look at the prices of things, you're like, Oh, okay, I probably shouldn't do that, I shouldn't do that. And you're just like, okay. You just you just limit the amount of what you're willing to do, and then you just kind of sit around.
SPEAKER_01:We looked at absence tickets and they were like 400 bucks a ticket.
SPEAKER_03:That's crazy because I feel like there were 100 last time we went.
SPEAKER_01:It was a it was a stat, it's one of their stat holiday weeks. Oh, okay. Juneteenth. Jacked it up. They called it. Well, I offended some guy at the airport because we get off and I'm like, it's it's Juneteenth. I'm like, I don't know what that is. And he's like, What? And I was like, oh, okay. So I looked it up. It's some independence thing where they established independence in June of whatever year.
SPEAKER_00:Like, is this a new holiday? I don't know.
SPEAKER_01:I don't care. I just had a good time. Yeah.
SPEAKER_00:Are you looking it up?
SPEAKER_01:Yep. Juneteenth.
SPEAKER_03:It is a U.S. federal holiday commemorating the emancipation of enslaved African Americans, specifically marking the day in 1865 when Union General Gordon Granger announced the end of slavery in Galveston, Texas, enforcing the Emancipation Proclamation.
SPEAKER_01:I think I know why he was so mad at me for not knowing that he was black. Yes. And I feel terrible. Are you serious? Yeah, well, I'm not making it up.
SPEAKER_03:Okay.
SPEAKER_00:But is this a new holiday?

SPEAKER_03:Canada's a big country.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, what do you mean just out there?
SPEAKER_01:Like you get like on the streets and the sidewalk.
SPEAKER_03:You think like someone leaves a bar at night and they draw they oh they fall and goes down the sewer.

SPEAKER_00:How often do you see loose change?
SPEAKER_01:Not often. Not often.
SPEAKER_00:People pick it up. I'm gonna say like$3,000.
SPEAKER_01:No, I was thinking like$20,000 to$30,000. I wasn't not gonna go to a million.
SPEAKER_03:Nah, it could be.
SPEAKER_00:I usually no.
SPEAKER_01:What about are you are you you see a penny on the sidewalk? Are you picking up the penny or the nickel?

SPEAKER_01:They also had Al Capone's desk, rug, and dresser in this place, as well as one of the bricks from the massacre where the his his gang dressed up as cops and they lined all these subjects up from a rival gang and shot them. Yeah, it couldn't just be a regular brick. It was it was the oh god, you just drive me nuts. I have so many stories about that trip, but I'm not gonna tell anyone. You guys suck. Anyway. Um 20,000.
SPEAKER_00:What's your bend over?
SPEAKER_01:What's your bend over number?
SPEAKER_00:Like a dollar, usually. A loony? Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:You're not bending over for a quarter.
SPEAKER_00:Like it depends how tired I am.
SPEAKER_01:Holy cow. In your state, you look a little tired right now. In your state, what do you what are you bending over? A loony.
SPEAKER_00:Really? I'm I'm cruising past quarters. God, I wish. I don't know if there's multiple quarters. But like a lone quarter, like 50 cents. Yeah, oh yeah.
SPEAKER_01:But 50 cents where it's like they're kind of spread apart, so you probably have to bend over twice.
SPEAKER_03:And one's like really muddy.
SPEAKER_01:Yep.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, yeah. I'm good to go.
SPEAKER_03:A toonie that's covered in mud, like like really muddy. Like muddy or like poop? Well, it could be. You don't know.

SPEAKER_03:You would take it. I wouldn't even go ten. Seriously, why not? I'd take a five. Covered in poop. Yeah, I would just cover the edge and then I would clean it.
SPEAKER_00:You you actually wouldn't. I guarantee you, you wouldn't.
SPEAKER_03:You wouldn't you wouldn't. I would.
SPEAKER_00:No, you wouldn't. I would have to be I would have to be like 20.

SPEAKER_00:No.
SPEAKER_01:Yes, I would. Like not completely covered, like just like a half.
SPEAKER_00:No, I'm talking like a disgusting human poop just on top of it.
SPEAKER_01:Oh, so if I pulled it like from the corner, like you know all those waiters, they they pull the the pull the down.
SPEAKER_00:Like it's it's it's got some like adhesion.
SPEAKER_01:So like you can't do that wader trick where you pull the tablecloth really quick.
SPEAKER_00:Like it's gonna stay on there.
SPEAKER_01:I'd have to go for a 20.
unknown:Yeah.
SPEAKER_00:I'd do a tw-no, I probably wouldn't. 50? Yeah, yeah. 50 100%. 50. But you do like the like just like a little corner pinch and just like as far away from your body as you can. You just go wash it. I'm still blown away by the city. I'm sure you touched poop before. I'm sure I do.
SPEAKER_01:How much change it would have to be to be a million dollars? That's what depends.
SPEAKER_03:Isn't too easy. Maybe like a dump truck worth.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah. I don't know. That's a lot of change. Yeah, it's probably in Vancouver on the streets.
SPEAKER_01:Well, that's not bad, actually. The inner like the Toronto, Vancouver. Those are big cities. No, but those people are bending over to pick up pennies. Yeah. Yeah. So those streets are clean. What do you mean by those people? The the people who are like this, you know, the the poor people in those neighborhoods you were talking about. The unhoused the unhoused.
SPEAKER_03:Hobos need to have a stick with a handkerchief on them. And well, it's not just a handkerchief, it's their bag of belongings. It's a handkerchief on the end with it's red with polka dots on it. That's exactly the container belongs. Red with white polka dots or white with red polka dots. No, but their belongings. It's not blue. What is wrong with you?
SPEAKER_01:No, it's red.
SPEAKER_03:100%. No, if people don't have you watched anything in your life. Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:If you ask 10 people what color is a bag on a hobo stick, they're all gonna say nine out of ten will say bag. A handkerchief. Or the handkerchief on a hobo stick because nine out of ten would say red.
SPEAKER_03:I don't think I don't think they would. Okay, I'm going to try to run a Twitter or X quiz tonight. If you think of a hobo walking down the street with a stick and a handkerchief on the end, what color is that handkerchief?
SPEAKER_01:It's not blue.
SPEAKER_03:It's either red or white. And it's I I think it's red or white with the opposite uh polka dots.
SPEAKER_01:Yep. Yeah, I I am on your page, on your side 100%.
SPEAKER_00:Agree to disagree.
SPEAKER_01:Is it just a solid blue?
SPEAKER_00:I was picturing like a kind of like a denim-y, whitey blue kind of thing. What is wrong with you? You ever watched the bigger thing?
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, they don't make denim handkerchief.
SPEAKER_00:They're not blowing their nose into it, they're carrying their worldly belongings. Alright. I you know.
SPEAKER_01:We're definitely right about this. You might be. We're just not in the same way like tonight.
SPEAKER_00:We're not. It's and it's okay. I'm a little tired. You know, maybe my color's a little bit off.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, I was gonna say you're pretty white.
SPEAKER_00:Really?
SPEAKER_03:I don't know.
SPEAKER_00:Why are you looking at me like that?
SPEAKER_03:Because you're scratching your chest really weirdly. Yeah, you were you were like going, like something who scratches their chest? It was like your fingers were like waving. Do you have a skin condition on the central area of your chest that we shouldn't be in your house with? Ginger vitis. Do you have measles? Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:Oh, not a friend of ours, but somebody from work um has measles? No, the person they are coaching with got measles and they're vaccinated.
SPEAKER_03:They're coaching with has measles.
SPEAKER_00:Sorry, so who at work has measles?
SPEAKER_01:No, no one at work has measles. They were tested, but the person they coach with on this on this baseball team, um, they had measles. Uh huh. And they were vaccinated. Like, I didn't think that was an actual thing.
SPEAKER_00:Wait, so you mean vaccines don't stop infection? Okay, but is it?
SPEAKER_01:But like measles aren't is isn't exactly something that's around all.
SPEAKER_00:Uh dude, have you been reading the news? No, I don't.
SPEAKER_01:That's why that's out of control. The only news I get is when I come here.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, well, here's news for you. Measles is out of control in Southern Alberta. Really? Yeah, due to the Mennonites. Well, don't blame the Mennonites. It seems like some group. You're right.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, but why why was it seems like the Germans blaming people? Why is it no, they were blaming people. That wasn't them. Oh, yeah, yeah. They like they like to blame other people for the things and then they murdered them.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, that's right. Okay. I think that there are certain large colonies of of people that don't really deal with met I not that I know how you deal with measles, but I don't I don't even know how you deal with that. Yeah, they don't vaccinate, so it's spreading. Is measles deadly? It sounds bad. Yeah, it can't be. Not very often, not very often though. No, right? I I think that there's a there's risk with young kids with measles.
SPEAKER_03:I want to know how often measles is deadly. Did you look it up?
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, but mine's processing a lot for some reason. Um I like how it's relating it to my previous answers about hot air balloon deaths and killdozer. Oh god, 128,000 deaths globally in 2021 from measles.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, we need to look at percentage of how many people got it versus how many people died. Uh has a case fatality ratio of 1 to 2% in developing countries, where malnutrition, vitamin A deficiency, and limited health care increase severity. In developed countries, it's 0.1 or 0.2%. Yeah, it's pretty low.
SPEAKER_01:I have 0.1 to 6%.
SPEAKER_03:Well, it depends. Did it separate between developed and undeveloped countries? It did not.
SPEAKER_01:This is just this is everybody.
SPEAKER_03:Like, I mean, it's a lot of deaths actually.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, that's a lot. 128,000 is a lot.
SPEAKER_03:But that probably means there's like a couple of million getting it. Yeah. Cool. So you're probably fine.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, I think I'm I think we're good. I don't, I don't probably don't have measles.
SPEAKER_03:Okay, well, the way you were scratching had me concerned, so glad we got that out. What about uh possibly uh staph infection?
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, no, don't have that. Okay. I was just like, it can't I be itchy in between my pecs? Sure. What if I do it with two hands? Does it look more realistic? It's super awkward.
SPEAKER_01:The last sentence in this grok thing, and like Ellie's survival in The Last of Us, children's resilience against measles depends on their protection level. What the hell? This thing is crazy.
SPEAKER_03:I was listening to you. Do you have a voice or just listening the whole time? I appreciate it trying to relate back to it.
SPEAKER_01:I know it is. It's trying, it's trying with killdozer, but it's not working out. Like it's yeah, it's like I cannot relate to the killdozer.
SPEAKER_00:If you get measles, you're gonna crash and burn.
SPEAKER_04:That was that pretty good, actually. That was really good. It wasn't that good.
SPEAKER_00:JV didn't even crack a smile.
SPEAKER_01:He's about to pull his anyways out of it.
SPEAKER_00:So anyway, I got work in the morning, so see you guys later. I actually don't. I took tomorrow off at Friday off. Oh, nice. I do have to get up early because I need to be up before work so I can meditate. Yeah, okay.

Join us in this feat of mental fortitude and strength and discipline as we journey through the edges of what's possible. And that was a little dramatic for her.
