Rising Fair Prices and Restrictive Rules

Welcome to episode three of Weird World Variety, with your host, matt, and my co-host.
Speaker 2Jesse.
Speaker 1What's up, jesse? How you doing man? So today we got a lot of things going on. I will tell you that this week coming up well, when this comes out, it'll be passed, but by the time this comes out it'll be already over. But this week coming up we have something very near and dear to my heart happening. Um, it is said fair week, a lot of cities. Do you like going to the fair at all?
Speaker 2Not, particularly when they keep raising the prices. But so usually the same stuff every year, and then they may get more expensive.
Speaker 1So we are going to talk about that. So they have raised the prices again. Bruh, give me the money again. And it's not a dollar, it's not a two dollar. This year it's over five dollars If it's. If it was twelve dollars last year, it might be three dollars, but I thought it was five dollars for sure, man, it's. It's a lot For the fair, I mean. Yes, you do get a bunch of stuff with it, but I personally think fair is just getting more and more expensive as we go on.
Speaker 2It's just not really worth the price anymore, me yeah.
Speaker 1Do you think it's worth it Like?
Speaker 2I don't but.
Speaker 1I mean.
Speaker 2I know plenty of people still go to it.
Speaker 1Yeah, and we do spend they. We do spend a ton of money for the food and whatnot. But I feel like if you're raising prices that much, people are not going to be able to buy, like the food.
Speaker 2People are going to barely buy groceries.
Speaker 1So I mean it's like you know, the only, the only upside is, I think with this fair coming up and a couple other fairs I know around the states, there are rides included in the upside Rides and shows included, but they keep raising the price every year, like it doesn't stop, like it won't be the same price next year. It was this year. I remember five or ten years ago. It used to be the same price for three or four years in a row.
Speaker 2Yeah, they're not doing that anymore. That was where they. Yeah, that was, that was fine. At least it was bearable then.
Speaker 1So, which also raises the question when is it too much, when is inflation?
Speaker 2too much and I got another question for you.
Speaker 1Another thing that happens at the fair a lot. We have a lot of events at the fair. The rules are getting more and more and more strict. Safety is number one priority, to the point where the events that used to have ramps in them are no longer ramps. And I wanted to ask you, I wanted to get your take on it but when do you think enough is enough and when do you think it's too many rules or not enough rules? What do you mean by ramp?
Speaker 1So like OK, for instance we have a event every year called a rough truck right oh yeah, so in rough truck. There are twists, there are turns, there are bumps, there are, and then the final thing that they jump off of, they have a jump contest called a ramp.
Speaker 2Oh well, that has gotten lower every year. I mean, what a ramp is, but I wasn't sure if you meant a ramp that so for quote unquote safety reasons.
Speaker 1that ramp has gotten lower and lower every year Are you serious? So it's basically not really much of a ramp anymore. That's sad, my. My point of the whole thing is how do you have a jump contest when you can't get very far? You got to be able to jump.
Speaker 2What kind of sense does that make? Pretty soon it's going to be a speed bump.
Speaker 1And they're going to have a speed bump and a code and you're like, once you hit the speed bump, now here's what they should do. If they're going to eliminate the ramp for quote, unquote safety reasons, they should put a speed bump, but make it sharp so that when the car truck hits the speed bump they go launching in the air. Yeah, because I don't know about you, but I we both grew up in the same area with a lot of country boys who don't care about safety, but they do, like they'll. They'll wear helmets and make sure they have roll cages and whatnot. But the whole reason why they entered the contest in the first place danger.
Speaker 2the threat was for the thrill of it and was for the fun with it. You know, and we talked about this.
Speaker 1We talked about competitions. When is enough? Enough, Like, if you're going to make so many rules in sports, if you're going to make so many rules in competition, where do you stop? Because at this point I mean eventually people will be like, well, I'm going to be in the same place.
Speaker 2I mean eventually people will stop participating Period.
Speaker 1Exactly, it's exactly what's happening and less. And every year we're getting less and less people that participate, because the rules are too much, it's just too much. It works too expensive, yeah, but more so that they're just harping on the safety, and that goes for every event. So I gave you one example. But for every event it's like let's see how safe we can be, and because of that, all the ramps have gone down to like nearly flat surfaces. So what's the point?
Speaker 2That's not a ramp.
Speaker 1Yeah, what's the point in even having a race?
Speaker 2A ramp needs an incline. Ladies and gentlemen, there are two exits at the rear. Oxygen will be provided. Anyway, it's a mess man, I see a ramp is at least five foot incline.
Speaker 1Something like the things like starting to be barely High enough to be a kid's ramp, let alone.
Speaker 1And you know what cracks me up is not only they're doing it for every event at the fair, but people are doing this for every sport in general. Think of how many sports have so many rules now. You know it used to be and this is a dumb example, but it used to be. Back when we first started playing football, there was way less rules than there are now. Now I get being safe, I understand that, but also not just football, baseball, basketball, whatever. There are so many rules now. It's ridiculous, for how do they keep every little thing? How do they keep what? How?
Speaker 2do they keep thinking of new rule?
Speaker 1I want to know, I don't know.
Speaker 2And every year, haven't you covered everything by now, and that's my point.
Speaker 1Every year it seems like to come up with a new rule and it's like, okay, guys, but when did we stop having fun? You know what I mean? Like the whole point of sports, the whole point of events, the whole point of anything.
Speaker 2Aside from competition. Aside from competition was to making money potentially is fun, exactly.
Speaker 1Exactly, that's exactly my point. So I don't know Everybody that's listening to this podcast right now. If you're hanging out with a group or whatever, ask your friends Like, is it when is enough to know? Like, when is enough enough, when are the rules too much? Because when you have rules to keep people safe, that's one thing, but when you're starting to like, like, for instance, with that competition, the point of the competition is no longer. It's becoming no longer a competition. So when is enough enough? Right, when is too much? Too much? I don't know Something to think about. I keep thinking about it every year and the rules get crazier every year and it seems like every sport I watch, the rules get more and more ridiculous. It doesn't matter what sport it is.
Speaker 2That doesn't surprise me.
Speaker 1When did we stop playing the sports and doing the events and the races and everything? When did we stop?
Speaker 2having fun For the sheer joy of it.
Exploring Miami
Speaker 1Yeah, for the sheer joy of it. Man, like I don't know, we talked about this quite a few times, you and I, when we're traveling, but that's just something I wanted to bring up. I thought it was interesting. Today we got a lot. I got tons of stuff for you. We're probably not going to get it to all of it today and we might have to get it into next time, but, just like last time, we've got a lot. Let's dive right into it. So, jess, my first question to you when have you traveled to? Have you been outside the United States? No, I have not left the country.
Speaker 1Okay, so in admit all good In. You know, if you ever get a chance to leave the country, I suggest it for any anybody. So inside the country, where do you think you've been to like most?
Speaker 2I've gone northeast and south, but I've never gone west.
Speaker 1Northeast and south, but you never gone west, for people don't know. We're kind of around the Midwest area, so he just hasn't been in the. You haven't been to California.
Speaker 2You haven't been to California surfer yet Well, when I told people that I haven't gone west, they're like well, there's nothing there. So I'm like oh.
Speaker 1I don't think that's true. There's a, there's a lot. There's a lot going on the West. It's just very different from what we've got here More dirt, speaking of which. So today, on today's podcast, we're going to talk about really cool things. Last time we talked about fun places to eat in the Bahamas, which was amazing. We heard that show. Go back and hear it. It was episode one. It was awesome. I cannot wait to go to the Bahamas. I don't know about you, but I'd love to go there. Oh my gosh, yes, it was beautiful. Yeah, yeah, can't. I'd love to go there. So today we're going to continue with this tropical trend and we're going to talk about things to do if you ever visit Miami Florida.
Speaker 2Not quite as far down as the Bahamas Not quite, but still a little tropical, still a little fun.
Speaker 1So if you're from Miami, if you've done any of these things and you have a good experience, please let us know. But we're going to look through some things here.
Speaker 2I've got something pulled up by Miami Top Tours and Activities.
Speaker 1Yes, by V8 or V8 or I don't know how to say that.
Speaker 2V8 or a TripAdvisor company? Yeah, it's a.
Speaker 1TripAdvisor company. So you know they have a little bias, probably because they want people to book certain things. But I saw some of the stuff on here and I thought some of them were really cool and also not so badly priced. So let's go through this list here. And the very first one I'd love to know if you do this, jess, is a Miami Skyline 90-minute cruise and you go and see South Beach Millionaire Homes in the Venetian Islands. Looks like a typical boat cruise.
Speaker 2Well, venetian Island sounds interesting. I don't know much about them, or?
Speaker 1much, if anything.
Speaker 2I should say about them.
Speaker 1Well, this also begs the question would you ever drive by millionaire homes just to see them?
Speaker 2I'm probably supposed to say yes, but probably not, I mean but it's part of the cruise or whatever.
Speaker 1No, I want to know what you would do. Jesse, I don't care about anybody else's audience right now. I want to know what you would do, because would you?
Speaker 2I was that be worth.
Speaker 1It Looks like it starts at around $30 right now. Venetian Islands does.
Speaker 2Well, if I knew whose houses they were, maybe if I wanted to see a particular person's house like an actress, then, yes, it does.
Speaker 1A percent, you know. To me $30 does not seem bad for 90 minutes, for a tour and a cruise.
Speaker 2No, I love, I love being on a boat.
Speaker 1And most of the time when I go to do boat stuff in other states, it is so expensive, so expensive. Have you ever? Have you ever priced fishing tours or whale watching tours or anything that involves a boat? It's usually hundreds of dollars.
Speaker 2Yeah, I know.
Options for Touring Miami
Speaker 1So, yeah, I love that. The second one I saw I think you would like. I'm going to pull this up for you here Miami Combo. So this one, you get a city tour, a Bay cruise and an Everglades airboat ride. I kind of like this one because you get three in one and it's one price, Like it's not super expensive. It's one price and you get three tours and you get basically a nine hour day.
Speaker 2I see nine hours and like that sounds 100 percent worth it.
Speaker 1Yeah, that sounds like something you would definitely get your money off of. The other one says an hour 30. Both of these have four stars out of five, so pretty decent reviews. But I mean, especially if you've never been to Miami before, if you're looking for a tour, I feel like that's a good starting place. So the Miami Combo and the Miami Skyline Uh, here's one I would do because I'm crazy enough to do it. If you want your sightseeing tour fast and I mean fast, fast you can do a 45 minute speedboat sightseeing tour and from the picture I see here they don't look like they're going slow at all.
Speaker 2What exactly is supposed to be saying? I see foam, I see scrapers.
Speaker 1I'm going to click on it, see, see what we got here. I'm going to pull it up. Oh, there's a whole video and everything. Oh my gosh, there's a lime green boat. Sign me up. I want to. I want to. On the lime green boat. Have a lime green boat. They have a red boat. Oh, this is fun. There's like a yellow boat. This thing is for people that are listening on the, on the podcast. These things look like jet boats, like the really fast ones. They're insane, but they, instead of the extra engines, they have extra rows of seats. Jesse, would you do this? Sure, why not? It's 45 bucks, so that's a dollar a minute.
Speaker 2A dollar a minute.
Speaker 1A dollar a minute. That doesn't sound good when you say it like that, but it's a dollar a minute but you get a very fast tour of the city. What do?
Speaker 2you charge a dollar a minute.
Speaker 1Oh really, I don't know it looks fun and it looks like everybody on the speed boat is having a blast, although one lady is holding under a purse. So it looks like she might, she might lose it. That's a fast boat that's. That's one of those boats where they say we're not responsible for loss of valuables or items like riding a roller coaster.
Speaker 2Yeah, I sign a disk. Hey, a waiver before you sign a waiver, you might lose your stuff in the ocean. Just fair warning.
Speaker 1Maybe. Ok, I need to refresh this here.
Speaker 2Keep all your stuff at your hotel if you're going to ride this boat.
Speaker 1Pretty much Now there is a half day tour that includes a sightseeing cruise and a bus. That's kind of cool. Have you ever ridden on a double decker bus?
Speaker 2Not double Wait. No, no, no, not double decker, no.
Speaker 1I haven't either. I've always wanted to. I know some tours are expensive. This one's not expensive. This one's very doable. I think if I got a chance I'd probably do a double decker bus. Now here's a different. If you are on the richer side and you would like a more private cruise, they have a two hour private yacht cruise in Miami with champagne for up to 10 to 12 people. Now they charge by the group, so it's still not a bad price. It's going to be expensive. No, three fifty doesn't sound that bad. Yeah, it's three fifty.
Speaker 1But it's a yacht you can have. It's not a regular boat and that's per group people. So usually, when I said the 10 to 12 people, I've seen fishing tours at one hundred and fifty per person. This is three fifty for a group. So this is much better. You get a private cruise and you get champagne. I mean, come on.
Speaker 2I have yet to try champagne.
Speaker 1I'm not a champagne person, but for my friends that like champagne, that's not bad. Here we go, let's do another one. I love the Everglades and airboat tours. I would definitely sign up for one. We saw that one that has an Everglades tour. I wonder if you could get, because if you sign up for the three in one, you can get an Everglades tour for a little bit cheaper. But if you sign up for an Everglades tour by itself, it's seventy dollars.
Speaker 2That's not bad.
Speaker 1Yeah, still not bad, still not bad.
Speaker 2So three to seven hours. I don't know why it's labeled as three or four hours. It's in bold, but then it says three to seven hours below. That makes sense.
Speaker 1Now this one in Miami. I never thought you could do this in Miami, but apparently this is a thing. For a hundred dollars you can rent an ATV and go through the countryside in. Miami and thirty minutes, that seems a little pricey, A little bit, but ATV crews I mean, I don't know. I feel like I just borrow my friends. I don't know.
Speaker 2Yeah, come on, yeah, yeah. I feel like I just borrow my friends that seems pricey, for an hour and thirty minutes to me.
Speaker 1Now I will tell you this next one is worth it because I have personal experience with kayaking and paddleboarding and if you do not have the money to pay for a kayak or paddleboard yourself, for a little bit less money you can have a two hour and thirty minutes, Basically exploration with a kayak or paddleboard and you get to explore Island and wildlife. So it's not just like, hey, you get to borrow this for two hours. It's like they take you on a wildlife tour and that's pretty sick, Like I'm seeing paddleboards and people on paddleboards and this person's got a manatee right below them.
Speaker 2That definitely looks more fun.
Speaker 1That is awesome dude.
Speaker 2I would.
Speaker 1I'd pick that over speedboat these people are looking at a raccoon in a tree though we got plenty of raccoons in here but yeah, there's manatees, there's all kinds of stuff going on. Looks like oh man, these pictures are cool. I would love this. This would be fun. There are. It looks like they're going through different styles of like wildlife reserves, like forests. There's a big forest that I see they're going through.
Speaker 2I don't think a raccoon would stay still like that. They're hanging on trained. Okay, they're hanging on an island with raccoons, though.
Speaker 1This one has raccoons in a kayak hanging out with the people. They're just like, yeah, give me some watermelon. I think they're feeding the raccoon watermelon. Oh, this one. This girl has dolphins. This girl has dolphins blower, what. That's where I insert dolphin sound effect, right there, you got one. Okay now, two hours and 30 minutes, 80 bucks, up to two people. Yeah, I'd still do it, I think, I think I'd still do it. Definitely looks worth it. You get to go explore the wildlife. It's not just like, hey, let's get a kayak and explore.
Speaker 2I probably get that more than once, honestly. Yeah, it looks like I might do back to back doors.
Speaker 1Yeah, dude, it looks fun. I would definitely. If you have time to do all these things, it definitely looks fun. Jetski rentals those can also be expensive, but there's one Jetski rental here that they're offering a deal for 140 bucks a group, which is pretty good.
Speaker 2Who next one dude taste of Miami. I saw that. I saw that.
Speaker 1Now that is only 20 minutes, but you're flying for the experience for the experience.
Speaker 2I do it 100%.
Speaker 1I might spend a little bit of money just for the experience.
Speaker 2Oh man, I got excited when I saw that helicopter. I've never been in a helicopter either.
Speaker 1I always wanted to. It's an interesting. I think I would be scared out of my mind. I think I'd be shaking in my boots. But that's a professional dude, he knows what he's doing. I know that, but I'm saying like I'd still be nervous Really. Yeah, you never been nervous flying.
Speaker 2I've always been nervous I wouldn't be as worried.
Speaker 1I think flying is fun, but it does make me nervous. Like you know, they have the Miami city tour with the stars, so they probably tour people's homes and stuff for that one Miami ultimate adventure.
Speaker 2What Whole day Key West tour and coral reef snorkeling with open bar. Oh my gosh, 50 hours for $115. That sounds great.
Speaker 1It does have three and a half stars. What's going on here? Is it good?
Speaker 2That sounds very low for that amount of things you do. So what's?
Speaker 1going on here. Let's see what we got the pictures here. I'm going to pull it up.
Speaker 2And why is there only three stars? I don't know.
Speaker 1The pictures seem random. It is of Key West. There's a lot of cool stuff. What do you get with this? Let's see if we can find a description. Hold on Overview. Explore Key West by Land and Water on a full day tour with Round Trip Bus Transport. Oh well, it is a bus. Miami and Snorkeling Cruise, so you?
Speaker 2do get a snorkeling cruise.
Speaker 1The bus is probably what got people.
Speaker 2That is one of the worst ways to travel.
Speaker 1Overview is scenery on the overseas highway to Key West means it's best to let somebody else drive Round Trip Transport. Free-flowing drinks on the Catamann cruise. I think the Catamann cruise is probably the best part. I think the people probably just didn't like the bus, but it looks like the. Catamann cruise with the drinks and stuff probably is the best part. Not too bad. I try it once. If it wasn't a great experience I might not do it again, but I'd at least try this once.
Speaker 2Coral Reef got me.
Speaker 1I'm like, ooh, yeah, that would be fun, coral Reef would be fun. And then, like I was telling you earlier, they have those Miami open top buses. You can definitely take tours in those. All right, so Beyond Tours, you can do jet skiing, atv and parasailing. That sounds fun. Yes, I love the Wildlife Tour. That one was cool because you got the paddle board. The helicopter thing is cool. They have a golf cart tour, and get this. The golf cart tour for small groups is five stars. What is this? Okay? Okay, we got to check this out. Graffiti Golf Cart Tour Graffiti, yes, I'm going to check this out. This is hilarious. Get an Express Tour of the Street Art in Miami's Winwood neighborhood via golf cart, right around with the revitalized district, with your guide, marvelay and the Graffiti and Murals. Bring your camera and fantastic snaps of art by local painters such as Shepard, ferry, retina, d-face and Enter. I'm probably not saying this, right, guys? Sorry. Enter, resny, they lowered it from 45 to 39.
Speaker 1That's awesome. It's got five stars. Ride in a comfortable golf cart, which I don't know about you, I like riding a golf cart. I think it's great. It's fun yeah.
Speaker 2I haven't gone and won like fast, but I've ridden it before I don't know, it's got five stars.
Speaker 1I guess you have to appreciate art. I do like the murals in the picture. I love art, dude. The murals and graffiti are pretty cool.
Speaker 2I carry art with me.
Speaker 1Yeah, this would definitely be an experience. I think it would be cool, because then you do the tour, take selfies with your friends. It would be kind of fun. That would be kind of fun. I think that's definitely worth one. Any other ones, jess, any other ones that you see here before we move on.
Speaker 2Hang on a second. I see Island Snorkeling. I see Island Snorkeling. It's the second page though.
Speaker 1I see Island Snorkeling Salsa lessons.
Speaker 2Hang on a second. There's a lot of Wait. There's a Fly Pink Miami private coastal airplane tour with free cash Nice $89.
Speaker 1There is a half-day deep sea fishing trip starting at $75, which is by far the best price I've seen.
Speaker 2Mangoes dinner and show ticket. I like the picture that's attached to it initially.
Speaker 1It looks good. What's the oh, my goodness? Oh, private transfer. They have a service so you can rent black limousines and stuff. That's kind of cool.
Speaker 2A few moments later, If this is what I think it is. I actually got a hired out of Mangoes Now, I kid you not.
Speaker 1Here's one that's interesting. We do this in Ohio, the Windwood Party Bike Bar Crawl. You ever seen that?
Speaker 2What is it?
Speaker 1The Windwood Party Bike Bar Crawl. So it's like this big vehicle. If you scroll down, you should see it. It's right before the pink plane Might be on page three.
Speaker 2Right before the pink plane.
Speaker 1Yeah, there's a pink plane, you can take a tour.
Speaker 2Party Bike Bar Crawl Is that you? Yes, yeah, 59 for two hours.
Speaker 1So we do this in Ohio. It's kind of fun. It's like a bar crawl, but you also have a bar on the vehicle. The whole time everybody's pedaling together. It's like a group of 15, 20 people, so you're hanging out and talking with each other. Meanwhile the person in control of the bar bike is steering and everybody's pedaling. It's great.
Speaker 2That's unusual, it's fun. It says Lake Lee to sell out yes, so it must be pretty popular.
Speaker 1Yes, those kind of bar crawls are very popular. Besides that, there's lots of stuff for families to do too. I mean, there's all kinds of craziness we got snorkeling, horseback riding, jet skis.
Speaker 2Looks like just what I didn't think of.
Speaker 1Yeah, so Miami is definitely popping. If you guys get a chance to do some of this stuff in Miami, let us know. And yeah, we'd love to hear from you. Is that all you got? That's all I got. I mean, we pretty much covered everything. All right, cool, let's go on to our next section. It would not be weird world without a bit of weird news. So today we're going to cover some weird news about time.
Speaker 2I know we're called weird world it's been two shows in between and getting back to weird episode three. Getting to the weird yeah, One, one to three. Why'd we skip on the second one?
Speaker 1I don't know.
Speaker 2I know, you know what, actually the Sasquatch stuff was a little weird, I guess. Okay, structures.
Speaker 1So I'm going to read you a few articles. You tell me which ones you want to go with Ready. So you, you've been arrested after free climbing London sky scraper.
Speaker 2That doesn't sound very. You know what free?
Speaker 1climbing is.
Speaker 2Free.
Speaker 1Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 1Yeah, yeah, thanks though here's. Here's something interesting Crocodile saved dog stranded in river instead of eating it. In possible case of emotional empathy, that what?
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 1Okay, let's go down. All right, all right, all right. So I'm going to bring this up.
Speaker 2I like to hear that. That is pretty strange. We're a crocodile.
Speaker 1If you guys want to follow along. This is from Sky News Newsskycom. It's called Sky News. This is by a reporter. This was on September 22nd of this year. Here's the article. My reptiles have a reputation of being opportunistic predators, but chose to nudge the dog to safety and what scientists say may be sentient behavior suggested of cross species empathy. That's a mouthful.
Speaker 2A little.
Speaker 1So let's see what happens here. I want to try to dive in here. We got threatened taxa Don't know why it says threatened taxa outlines how a young dog was observed being chased by a pack of feral dogs and entered the shallow waters of the Savitri River in India's oh my gosh, I'm not going to say this right Maharashtra. Don't know how to say that. Sorry guys. The dog had not spotted the three mugger crocodiles floating nearby, which began edging closer to what appeared to be certain prey. The adult reptiles, described by the Wildlife Institute of India as opportunistic predators Instead oh my gosh, this thing is interrupting instead pushed the dog to safety using their snouts. They even guided him to an area of the river bank that wasn't occupied by the feral pack of dogs, allowing this dog to make a safe escape on land. What the heck.
Speaker 2I don't think it gets much weirder than that.
Speaker 1Oh my gosh. People are always like saying oh, animals are not smart yeah they are. They're ridiculous. They're smarter than us. Sometimes. Some of the stuff I see in the animal kingdom is insane. Man, and they have a picture. Did you see the picture? They have a picture of the dog and the crocodile on there, bringing it up for you. Now I'm going to show you.
Speaker 2Show it to me, yeah hold on Using a different device there, sir.
Speaker 1Well, I thought you would have brought it up.
Speaker 2You didn't send that one to me it is pretty blurry.
Speaker 1Yeah, but you can see it is a gold retriever.
Speaker 2Looks like the crocodiles. Are you see the water?
Speaker 1and like I think they do have a video breaking the surface.
Speaker 2Do they have a video? I?
Speaker 1don't know. Hold on, I'm going to check to see if they have a video. No, this is just a picture, but that's interesting, bro. That's so interesting, I'll say so to move on. The curious incident was uncharacteristic of the crocodiles. The species can grow to over 16 feet and 450 kilograms and are known to pose a major threat to humans who encroach in their natural habitats. Okay, and this is what I'm going to say about this, animals have this. Okay, and maybe not crocodile so much, but animals have this intuition, like this natural instinct, that when something's in danger, and especially if a crocodile is not hungry, if something's in danger, animals tend to help each other.
Speaker 2It must have eaten plenty that day.
Speaker 1Probably did. They probably got plenty of food and my guess is that they saw the dog struggling and trying to get away from something else and for some reason that instinct came in, because I don't know about you, but I've seen plenty of animals and dogs and other animals like wild animals, like horses, I mean you name it and they have this instinct to help each other. It's weird, and humans too. I've seen them help humans when, huh, where, like on video.
Speaker 2Like in the US. Oh, okay, I got you.
Speaker 1Like, if a human is like, it's that whole thing Like. For instance, one story was talking about a dog that helped a human because they needed help and they somehow either got help or dial 911, accidentally, or you know whatever. It's their natural instinct to help people and dogs especially maybe not in crocodiles. It is definitely weird to see it in crocodiles, but yeah, I never thought I'd hear that.
Speaker 2The crocodile saves dogs. The animal kingdom what?
Speaker 1wild.
Speaker 2Did I hear that right? Yes, the wild saves a dog. Okay, okay, that's pretty cool.
Speaker 1This is where we go Of the croc.
Speaker 2Bra, bra.
Speaker 1No, but I have hope for humanity if crocodiles are out here saving dogs.
Speaker 2I have hope for dogs.
Speaker 1I have crocodiles. I have crocodiles too. All right, here's another one.
Speaker 2It's crocodiles just came into new light to me after that.
Speaker 1And this is what we were just talking about. Everything toddler found asleep in woods with one family dog as a pillow, while the other kept her safe. That's cute, yeah. And we were talking about animal instincts to help people. That is a perfect example.
Speaker 2Well, I'm pretty sure any animal that sees a baby is just instinctually caring for it.
Speaker 1I don't know about all of them, but especially animals that are close to your family. I think animals that are more pets or more close to your family.
Speaker 2Okay, Well, I suppose a wolf might A bear, I don't know.
Speaker 1I don't know, but I mean, if a crocodile is saving a dog, apparently. Listen, I've heard the void has opened and anything I've heard crazy stories where kids are hanging out with wild animals too, so you're probably right.
Speaker 2I want to go try to pet a bear now, oh my goodness.
Speaker 1And then finally the biggest story in the news this week is the mummified aliens that they said were found in Mexico.
Speaker 2Did you see those things? We're a little late on that. It's all good A little bit late Now, this report.
Speaker 1I don't know what the latest report is.
Speaker 2I don't understand why more people aren't fascinated by this.
Speaker 1I know it's weird, it's crazy, it's weird Even if it was.
Speaker 2Life sucks sometimes and you know the world or the life is crazy whatever is nuts Ailey them admitting to aliens? Just oak. Really blows my mind like why are people Excited about this?
Speaker 1like 20 years ago, they wouldn't even say the word aliens.
Speaker 2No, they wanted to deny it vehemently let alone the Mexican.
Speaker 1You know Mexico area coming.
Speaker 2I think it's pretty strange that people aren't excited about that, honestly alien bodies or whatever this says.
Speaker 1They were not assembled. Mexican doctors have claimed so whatever theory that you have. They said that these bodies were not assembled. Not assembled yeah, quote-unquote, you know, not fake, they argued. The doctors have carried out a series of laboratory studies on the remains after academics, scientists and archaeologists Argued that they were part of a hoax. So they're trying to say these are not.
Speaker 2And.
Speaker 1I don't know, they look me.
Speaker 2We know experts. We don't know, for sure, no.
Speaker 1But and I I don't know, but it is interesting and it's weird, it's kind of fun because it's like that's kind of the boy dear. We really have not had too much alien talk until recently and now. I want to see more everybody in their mama are talking about Aliens and if they're real and if they're here and all that's kind of stuff.
Speaker 1Well, I mean, I have a theory about that, but I Personally think why would we be the only ones in the universe? It doesn't make sense. To me. That part just doesn't make sense. Why would we be the only ones? Ever that? That doesn't make sense. So to me it's more practical to believe there are other creatures out there than not. I Mean the universe is how big? This big like, massive like, endless like, why would we be the only ones? That's my bigger than this big.
Speaker 1That's my outtake on that Stretches arms out did the side stretches arms out to the ends of the earth. No, stretches arms out to the end of the earth. Oh my gosh, all right, moving right along. Probably a certain amount of people that watch TV shows and movies out there. There are also a certain amount of people that watch cartoons and anime, and we are two of those people, so I wanted to go anime.
Speaker 1Yeah, I wanted to go over some anime news that they're producing, and if anybody's paying attention to anime now, you know that right now, the biggest thing on the internet is one piece. One piece has taken over the internet and They've even doing a live action right now, so it's getting crazy.
Speaker 2The live action has kind of taken over, right, yeah, as opposed to the anime.
Speaker 1Well, no, the anime has taken over too, because we're in the season where he uses gear five, which is like his. If you don't know what gear five is, gear five is his, like most recent power that's awakened every time I loofy yes.
Speaker 2So did he eat another fruit? No, there was a whole gear five.
One Piece Actor and Anime Releases
Speaker 1I'm not gonna I'm not gonna spoil it. You have to watch the new season and I'm gonna, I gotta watch it period. If you want to know about gear five, there's, there's, there's several gears that loofy is in and that's the latest one. People are going nuts. Then there's the live action, which we both saw, and gum gum pistol, the live I had stuck in my head ever hilarious and it is pretty good for the most part. I think some characters could be better, but Dude buggy was phenomenal.
Speaker 1Yes, he is Joker status in my opinion key. They did buggy Amazing. I don't know how they got that actor, but he was like awesome.
Speaker 2I was like bro, his name pulled up our fast I wanted to know that.
Speaker 1Give me a second I.
Speaker 2Don't want to know his name. I meant to look it up the day I started watching it and I totally forgot.
Speaker 1Okay, one piece, actor buggy live action. I.
Speaker 2Mean he was. He was cackling just like the Joker in the dark night.
Speaker 1Yeah, I'm gonna bring up the live action cast. We have Jeff.
Speaker 2Ward plays word. I said I never heard of him. Is he a nuke like he must be a pretty new actor, because I don't.
Speaker 1Bro, let's see if I can pull up. Yeah, he was a great buggy, the movies that he was in. He was in agents of shield. He was in the shield, yeah what Some of like some random movies I haven't even heard of, but the big one was agents of shield from 2013 to 2020. My guess is he was one of the agents. Oh, that'd be great. I think I kind of want to deek Shaw. He played deek Shaw and agents of shield. He.
Speaker 2I. That's one I still need to get to you as well. I've been putting that off for years.
Speaker 1If anybody's seen the I don't know the Netflix series brand new cherry, it doesn't look like anything I'd watch. But he also played Roy Hardaway in Netflix series and now he played buggy the clown and I gotta say but the clown pirate is probably his best so far.
Speaker 1I mean he looks like a buggy, the cloud, it's, it's so good. It's so good like and his personality, his normal life is cool, but he's got this like piercing. Like his normal look is really cool. He's 36 years old, five foot nine, so he's shorter than I am, but like he's got these piercing eyes and I'm gonna show you the picture he looks like he could do buggy really easily because he's got these piercing eyes that like bring out the character Even without all the makeup. So I'm like, oh, this is so dope because he nailed that. He nailed that and we both agree he did phenomenal here. I'm gonna show you the picture now.
Speaker 2Well, like a different rendering of buggy.
Speaker 1That's him.
Speaker 2Yeah, I can. I can totally see. You can see it right without the makeup.
Speaker 1Yeah, you can see it right Like it's, and that's not to make fun of him or anything like that. That's totally like he was. He nailed that role.
Speaker 2I think he did great. Yeah, like he's doing great if he still is.
Speaker 1The next thing we have is the.
Speaker 2I wanted to go over the fall line up portraying not being, is being Still portraying buggy.

I've seen faraway paladin that's an interesting one. I've seen anxious magus bride, but I am not Big into it. It's like a fantasy one. It's cool, but it's like that, like we don't have really any character development, like all the characters are just random and so it's pretty good. But I don't know, you don't know, I don't know, it's not my thing. I know a lot of people love it. I didn't enjoy goblin slayer. That is not a family show, but it is phenomenal.

Speaker 1I got one more article for you. This is the 13 most popular desserts in the world desserts. Now, this list list is wrong and you're like Matt and Jess, you guys are full of it. This is not the most popular desserts. Go blame flower or a dot com. This is from them. So this is from flower or a dot com flower. I think it's probably a little biased. They're probably like trying to sell. So this is from flower or a dot com. This is their top 13 most popular desserts in the world. All right, so here we go. Do we want to start with number one or 13? We start at number 13. Yeah, let's do 13. All right, yeah, all right.
Speaker 2Thanks for making me scroll.
Speaker 1All right, so 13, 13. I don't know even how to say this. Do you know how to say this word?
Speaker 2I would say good jar kahalwa, so bad is not so we don't know how to say this.
Speaker 1All right.
Speaker 2It's from India. It's from India.
Speaker 1Apparently. It's a famous dessert from India and has been seen almost every household. It's mostly made during winter and festivities. We the ingredients include grated carrots, milk, sugar, koya nuts and spices like cardamom and saffron. This dessert is beloved for a creamy texture and delicious flavor.
Speaker 2Did I say that wrong, doesn't that?
Speaker 1sounds really weird. It does, it looks really. It looks like carrots.
Speaker 2It looks like no, it looks like some kind of spicy nacho mix to me.
Speaker 1But it could be delicious. I don't know, but it looks. It doesn't look that great. I'll be honest, folks.
Speaker 2I don't know, but if you're from India, you probably know what this is, can we? Even buy koya. I don't even. I've never even heard of that.
Speaker 1I don't know. I'd have to look that up. Probably have to like order it or something.
Speaker 2Yeah, I'm assuming we'd have to order it online.
Speaker 1But do you think like a restaurant here would have it, like if a restaurant here would have it, I'd try it, considering it's Indian.
Speaker 2Like any restaurant, yeah, like any restaurant, right Like man.
Speaker 1okay, if we did have this I would try it, but I tell you it doesn't look great. It does not look good, but I would try it all. I am willing to try anything, okay so?
International Desserts
Speaker 1I'll try it at least once Now. This next one looks fantastic. It's called bingsu bingsu, I think, bingsu from Korea, a Korean shaved ice dessert topped with sweetened condensed milk, fruit and other toppings like mochi or nuts. During the Joseon dynasty, when Korea was under Japanese rule, a cold dessert was introduced and involved shaving ice from a royal ice box, serving it with fruit and adding red beans for extra sweetness. Over time, during the Korean War, foreign influences included nuts, rice cakes, cereals and syrups and dessert. That looks delicious.
Speaker 2It looks like strawberry ice cream. It does Nutmeg and fruits on top of it.
Speaker 1Yeah, it looks delicious. I would definitely try that. That would be sweet. And it's got. It's kind of got like a pinkish color to it. It's got the blueberry looks like the blueberry stuff on top. It's in a little bowl like that. Looks delicious. Go for it.
Speaker 2I'm pretty sure everybody's heard of number 11, tiramisu from Italy. The dessert known as tiramisu, which translates to pick me up I did not know it translated to pick me up Many other has its roots in the Treviso dialect man, there's some hard words in here where it was called tiramisu, originally created in Treviso, italy, around 1800. The name was later modified to tiramisu in the 20th century. This layer of dessert is made with ladyfingers soaked in coffee and layered with a mixture of mask, mascarpone, cheese, egg yolks and sugar. Top with cocoa powder. This dessert is a perfect pick me up.
Speaker 1It's a perfect pick me up. They had to like play on the words there, yeah, they did. Now that probably could be why that my mom likes this so much. This is a very popular dessert. I know many people that love this dessert. I've tried it. It's not my favorite, but it is good. I will say it's good Like cake. I mean, yeah, it's kind of like a cake or dessert you would have, you know, after meal. So Next one is from Hungary. I want to say what I want to say is not, probably not right.
Speaker 1Creams, creme, creme, k R E M.
Speaker 2E S creams or creme, I'd say creams but we're American, we're kind of ignorant, though.
Speaker 1The famous good luck saying that the fame. Look at this next word the famous cream S N I T goes with the name. I'm just going to say cream S N I T goes with the name. Cream creams in Hungary to puffy layers, which it does look like a cream dessert, so very fitting to puffy layers filled with a generous amount of pastry cream and sandwich with another is quite everyone's favorite dessert in Hungary, although it has been modernized a bit. The classic version used to be made of light and dry and topped with powdered sugar, but it still happens to be the staple dessert for all the Hungarians.
Speaker 2I think I ate a piece of this in a buffet once, are you?
Speaker 1serious.
Speaker 2I don't know.
Speaker 1I would like looks familiar, it looks simple and it looks like it would be good. It's basically for those listening. It's basically like yellow, but it's like cream topped with powdered sugar. It looks pretty good.
Speaker 2The next one is also another hard word, thanks. Number nine is something called Poffert cheese. I don't know if I'm pronouncing that right either, but it's from the Netherlands.
Speaker 1I don't know. I feel like I should look up some of these pronunciations Go ahead.
Speaker 2In other words, it's the name given to the small round and puffy pancakes that are made with yeast and buckwheat flour. People in the Netherlands use a separate pan to make these scrumptious pancakes called Poffert. Poffert just pan. Poffert has pan, poffert just pan.
Speaker 1I don't know Poffert hates. We're probably not saying that right, but we're doing our best.
Speaker 2No, definitely not Served on a cardboard paper. On various festivations, poffert cheese, the Poffert dessert, poffert dessert are meant to be relished in breakfast by topping it up with some tasty toppings. That looks pretty good, nakalei looks pretty good, and it looks like little. You know what? In a Gen 4 or Pokemon there were treats called Poffins, and that's what these look like. They look like many, many ways I've ever played that they look like little round pancakes and fruit. They look like a cross between a cookie and a pancake.
Speaker 1That's so weird, definitely.
Speaker 2I think that's what the Poffins were based on.
Speaker 1I would definitely try that and you might be right, I don't know. All right, we got another one. All right, heading up the list here, number eight Didar Gulang. I don't know how to say that. I'm sorry, indonesia, I'm not from any of these countries.
Speaker 1I apologize if you have a butchering yeah we're butchering these words, but you know what we're talking about. Another cousin of the sweet pancakes are these sweet Indonesian versions known as Didar Galang. Didar Galang I'm not even saying that, right. Didar means pancakes, whereas Galang means to roll, and hence the name. This pancake roll is green, it's a green color. It's made with pandan leaves and filled with sweet grated coconut. Now, I like coconut. You will find easy to bake summer dessert recipes for this, and with a refreshing taste of coconut, it would be a feast for the taste buds. I do like coconut.
Speaker 2I like coconut. These look like green burritos or what are those.
Speaker 1One of those things rolled.
Speaker 2They're like rolls like the chimichangas.
Speaker 1Yeah, like the chimichangas. That's what it reminds me of green. Yeah, but I mean, they do like, like mini green burritos, that's, but they apparently are fruit burrito, I'll take one. I'll try it. Like I said, I would try it. Even though it's green, I would try it. It looks interesting. It does look interesting. Oh my gosh, why are these names so long?
Speaker 2Oh man, number seven looks pretty hard to do. Cardinal Schnitten from Austria. A biscuit like dessert which is combined with meringue corresponds to the colors of Catholic Church Yellow and white. They got famous after being served at Cafe Mozart in the year 1974. This dessert stands out just the way its name does, making it one of the best desserts in the world.
Speaker 1Okay, it doesn't. It says meringue, it's meringue, and meringue yeah. I'm trying to figure out. I mean, it looks like there's powdered sugar, looks like there's some other layers here. Does that look like a fruit layer on the bottom to you?
Speaker 2Yeah, it does. It kind of looks Make in the middle.
Speaker 1Yeah, I was wondering if I was just tripping or if that was like You're tripping. Am I tripping Like? It looks like a fruit jam or something on the bottom. I would try that Looks good. Looks like a cake dessert you get after lunch. I don't know, but it looks good, I kind of want to try making these Dude. We should. We should have a whole like live video of us trying to make these on the pockets we might fail, we might.
Speaker 1We make them turn out well, who knows who knows, who knows who knows the kitchen.
Speaker 2It would make for good.
Speaker 1TV. Let's blow up the kitchen.
Speaker 2Let's do it Cover everything in powdered sugar, gelatin, meringue.
Speaker 1I was talking with my son just the other day about our first episode when we talked about inventions as a kid and he said he wants to make a strawberry cupcake with watermelon frosting and apple sprinkles. That's definitely different I know I was like, I would try that.
Speaker 2I was like dude, let's do it, I would snarf that down.
Speaker 1So our next to tip is probably gonna be the strawberry cupcake. I want to. I want to try it. I think it would be fun. All right, next one is Paclo Paclova, not baklava, water melon, apple cupcake.
Speaker 2Uh Paclova from turkey. If I'm saying that this sounds a little familiar to me too.
Speaker 1Yeah, it's not baklava but it is From turkey, one of the famous desserts of the east side. Paclova is a dessert which has thinner slices with the filling of minced nuts, which is further topped with syrup or honey and cut into square pieces. It is a must-try dessert of giving people goosebumps with his exotic melt-to-mouth experience. You know, honestly, it's not the same thing, but there are some similarities between this and baklava, because baklava has like a sweet. I don't know if you've had baklava, but it has like a sweet honey kind of Flavor to it I might have it's, it's a Greek dessert, I believe.
Speaker 1I've tried a lot of desserts, but it's it's. It's got like that honey flavor. This is kind of similar, although it is not the same thing, like you can.
Speaker 2I thought a baklava picture is definitely different. I thought a baklava was something that women wore.
Speaker 1No, no, it's, it's, I'm talking about the dessert. Talking about the dessert. All right, moving on before we get roasted in the comments Jamun we're all we're gonna. India really gonna get roasted already.
Speaker 2Roast those guys. It's fine, um, haha. Gulab jamun from India. The heart of every Indian occasion is gulab jamun, prepared with milk solids that are needed into a dough, and then deep-fried Um into desi D, I don't know. Gulab jamuns are topped up with saffron, green cardamom and rose water. Rose water. To add a dash of royalty. Never, ever, rose water either. All right, speaking of history, this dessert was introduced by the Mughals Muggles. Mughals, I think in India, as they relished an arabic dessert Arabic.
Speaker 1Yeah, I knew that, you knew that.
Speaker 2I just it came out, it arabic. It's all good, it's all bad Arabic dessert called man these words are no, they put like a lot. Al-qadi.
Speaker 1Lupamal Al-Qadi. I think.
Speaker 2I'm not sure, and since then, it has become one of the best sweets in the world. Gulab Jamun can be seen saved by people throughout the summer, which is why it is one of the best dessert ideas to surprise the taste buds. They look like sweet meatballs. I thought they were like sliced hot dogs minute or tomato.
Speaker 1It's interesting. It is interesting again. I would definitely try it. It looks interesting. I would definitely try. It is deep fried. That's why they look like Deep-fried balls of dough, because they are deep-fried, like you know, like deep-fried Oreos or whatever.
Speaker 2Yeah, I still have it right there, still Deep-fried Oreos are good.
Speaker 1They hit, they hit hard. They're good, all right. Next one Nanimo bar number four, after getting its name from the town of Nana mo, this Canadian dessert Am I saying that right, dear lord? No, no, no, no, no, no. Oreos is so bad is one of the most delicious desserts in the world, having three decks of tart that doesn't require any baking. The lower deck includes waffle bits, whereas there are a creamy icing and a chocolate glaze.
Speaker 2Now, I am all about that?
Speaker 1that looks amazing, that looks delicious. Yeah, I'm all about that. Sign me up.
Speaker 2I'm not too crazy about like dry flaky chocolate, but that looks pretty, pretty good.
Speaker 1Okay, I'm surprised. I'm surprised it does.
Speaker 2Next one number three apple pie. That's hilarious.
Speaker 1We have more desserts than just apple pie. I'm so like why is it apple pie? But it is a staple. It is a staple especially during fall season. Apple pie.
Speaker 2Once the famous author Jane Austen quoted good apple pies are a considerable part of our domestic happiness and since then the people of USA took apple pie very seriously kidding, okay, as apples are fruits which are the first loves of many. Hence this dessert, made up with a crispy crust which can be presented with whipped cream, vanilla ice cream or even with cheddar cheese. Who puts cheddar cheese on apple pie? I don't. That's. That's pretty strange to me became so popular, or should we say a bit sweet, in the now best sweet in the world.
Speaker 1I don't think it's the best. I feel like that's American eight guards right there.
Speaker 1Right there, big no, but I we do have a lot of good desserts in America and I know a lot of them. Okay, apple pie is not my favorite, but I know a lot of people like apple pie, so I'm a little pretty surprised to see that at number three. That's crazy. All right, this one. I am not surprised because this is definitely a popular dessert. This is mochi from japan, as sweet as the name of this dessert Seems. Mochi is a traditional japanese dessert which is prepared with sticky rice pounded in a mortar, turned into a paste and made from scones and made into scones or pellets, uh, resulting in making this dessert item which is very heart of the japanese festival. To take this yumminess up A level, a scoop of ice cream is served along with mochi. It is one of the simplest desserts to make at home, as you will find it plenty easy to do. Summer dessert recipes out there um and pokemon legends arc.
Speaker 2Yes, uh, you actually eat something called potato mochi.
Speaker 1I haven't had too much mochi, but I know this is a very popular dessert um, especially especially in japan.
Speaker 2So that's not surprising number one. Number one is crème brûlée france crème brûlée.
Speaker 1That also doesn't surprise me.
Speaker 2You got to give this exotic dessert item at least a try, for sure. It is the simplest to bake, even by an amateur baker if he or she has an oven at home. Back in the 17th century, this dessert was introduced by france swah messy a lot, a chef of a kitchen of a duke of orlean, who wrote about its recipe in a book A creamy pastry, a thin crisp caramel layer, is what is referred to as crème brûlée and which has stolen everyone's heart.
Dessert Making Challenge
Speaker 1Uh, that is a very popular dessert. I don't know if it's the best in the world, but you know, according to the list, this is number one. And, uh, I know a lot of people love crème brûlée. So there you have it, just the top 13 desserts In the world which I've seen. None of the desserts I like I need to make.
Speaker 2I need to make 12 out of 13 of those.
