Episode 56: Dimming the Sun and Racing Sperm: Science Goes Wild
Ever wondered what happens when college rivalry meets reproductive biology? In one of the strangest scientific "competitions" we've ever covered, two college students from rival schools USC and UCLA are preparing to face off in the world's first competitive sperm race. Yes, you read that right. Tristan and Asher, both sporting athletic builds and cross necklaces, will be providing samples to be raced under a microscope through a track mimicking the female reproductive system. Both claim their healthy lifestyles and temporary abstinence will give their sperm the competitive edge, though the event has already faced venue changes and controversy.
Meanwhile, we dive into several true crime updates, including the Karen Reed murder trial where newly revealed text messages surprisingly support the defense rather than the prosecution. The messages show an ordinary relationship argument and reconciliation attempt hours before the alleged murder, making many question the strength of the prosecution's case. We also discuss Robert Cremo III, the Highland Park Massacre shooter who received seven consecutive life sentences but cowardly refused to attend his own sentencing hearing where victims' families had prepared impact statements.
In perhaps our most existentially concerning story, scientists have received $66 million to test whether they can combat global warming by literally dimming the sun. The controversial plan involves injecting aerosol particles into the stratosphere to reflect sunlight away from Earth. Some experts call this "barking mad" and a dangerous distraction from reducing carbon emissions, while others argue we need real-world data on potential climate interventions. From microscopic races to manipulating sunlight, this episode explores the fascinating, terrifying, and sometimes absurd intersection of science and society.

I've been having a lot of frozen pizza. I'm sick of it. I want a fresh take on a pizza.
Speaker 1:Fresh take on a pizza.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Okay, and as for the pies, I think that's a really good. That's an interesting take, because I am not a huge fan of pies. I feel like-.
Speaker 2:What about the savory?
Speaker 1:pie Okay.
Speaker 2:That's more your the shepherd's pie. I'll give you a shepherd's pie. Yeah, I'll give you a fucking shepherd's pie.
Speaker 1:Chocolate pies. That's what I want. I want a chocolate pie.
Speaker 2:I'll give you a chocolate pie too.
Speaker 1:Come on, just let me have that.
Speaker 2:All right. Well, let's start today with an update. Karen Reed, she's back, continues to be in the news, tell me, as that trial continues to happen. So we have an update on some text messages that were exchanged.
Speaker 3:Yes.
Speaker 2:Kyle, what's going?
Speaker 3:on. It's a big nothing burger. It's a nothing burger, it's a whole nothing burger. I don't want that. No, it's still funny how these 45-year-old people were texting. It was like a very high school text fight Right.
Speaker 1:Well, of course.
Speaker 2:They text fight Right. Well, of course they're Boston cops, yeah.
Speaker 1:Yeah, they're all still living their high school peak years.
Speaker 3:Yeah, but she apologized. She's like I feel pretty shitty about how this morning went down. This is the day that he ended up dead. Okay, she said I know you said sorry, but it really stung.
Speaker 3:And she's texting her now dead ex-boyfriend yes, okay, but dead ex-boyfriend yes, okay, but he was alive then. Well, I would imagine, yeah, yeah, uh, he said especially. She said especially when I've been trying pretty hard lately I feel like a loser turning around just coming back over after everything. You said okay. So they got into like some stupid argument the morning before, uh, he was killed and so they were like we're gonna show this little text, fight and prove that she actually killed him because of it.
Speaker 2:So this is like a Boston couple fight. So she was like maybe Larry Bird isn't in the top five and he's like what the fuck are you saying? Watch your mouth, watch your mouth and then they got into a fight over that. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3:I mean they pretty much. They made her look even better, in my opinion, because they were arguing a lot about her buying expensive gifts for his kids that he adopted His niece and nephew that became his kids when their parents passed away.
Speaker 1:God, how are those kids doing? What a terrible, terrible life they've had.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I didn't even know that they had adopted kids. Those kids are.
Speaker 1:Yeah, he has two kids that are actually his niece and nephew, but then their parents died. And so he adopted them. Oh, those poor kids, everyone's dying, everyone's dying.
Speaker 3:Everyone's dying on him and his brother's such a scumbag because he could have taken care of the kids. But he's been texting people who are setting him up online and he's like I hate having kids too. You want to go on a date and he's just talking about how much he hates kids. But then he stole the GoFundMe money for John and took the money that was supposed to be for the kids. It's total, complete fuckery For real.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that is petty.
Speaker 3:So out of all the text messages, his brothers are the worst.
Speaker 1:Oh my god, fuck that guy.
Speaker 2:So those texts were between 2.30pm and 8.35pm on January 28th 2022. Again, they were introduced by the prosecution, but in my opinion they almost seem healthy where she's like I'm sorry, I've been kind of a grump.
Speaker 3:Exactly.
Speaker 2:Whatever Like. That's sort of how relationships work.
Speaker 3:Exactly. That's why I think the prosecution thought I don't know what they were thinking. They were like this is going to bring it all down, and it just made her look even better.
Speaker 2:To be honest, yeah, and I don't want to victim blame the dead here, but I think this guy, this O'Keefe character, is the only one ever not to look good in uniform. Look at him.
Speaker 1:What are you talking about? He's a cutie. Look at him, he's a cutie. He's got a big baby face.
Speaker 2:Uh-huh.
Speaker 1:He seems like a good guy.
Speaker 2:No he doesn't.
Speaker 1:Okay, that's a strong word.
Speaker 2:He is. He seems like a good Boston guy.
Speaker 1:Actually, he seems like a good guy. Why am I taking that back? No, I'm taking my stand on that. He seems like a. Really. He adopted his niece and nephew.
Speaker 3:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Okay, this is the what. This is the single dad guy here.
Speaker 2:Yeah, well, you know who else adopted their niece and nephew, the couple from Children Under the Stairs.
Speaker 1:Or People Under the Stairs. The Wes Craven movie yeah.
Speaker 2:Then they kept him hostage. Right Would feed him very, very little and take all the money from the government. He didn't do that though, would you take? The money from the government.
Speaker 1:No.
Speaker 2:We don't know, we simply don't know.
Speaker 1:Anyway.
Speaker 2:We're getting off topic. We will continue to follow that trial. Do you think, kyle, in your expert opinion, is it looking better for Karen Reed this time around than it did last time around? Because you and Jerry say, well, she's kind of a B word, yes, and because of that people want to find her guilty. But you can be mean and not a murderer.
Speaker 3:Exactly. I think, if the jury's paying attention, this will not be a mistrial this time. She's going to be acquitted on all counts for sure.
Speaker 2:Okay, okay, that going to be acquitted on all counts for sure. Okay, okay, that's the only thing you ever want to quit prison time. Yeah, acquittal, yeah, all right. Well, let's move on to a story just for our beautiful friend jerry aquino god, for you mean the alphabet community and plus, which is about the number, which is a number. What is an elf? What is a plus? What would that be called? Like a plus minus multiplication symbol? What are those called?
Speaker 3:PEMDAS A what.
Speaker 2:PEMDAS.
Speaker 3:PEMDAS, pemdas is how you figure out everything in that order he's talking about the calculation of PEMDAS. Yes.
Speaker 1:PEMDAS? No, he's talking, isn't it just like a regular symbol?
Speaker 2:Yeah, what would you identify the plus as A?
Speaker 1:symbol, because it's not a letter, it's a symbol A symbol. Yeah, it's pretty much a symbol. I feel like I keep saying that.
Speaker 3:Okay, well, I'm listening. Batman's also a symbol.
Speaker 1:PEMDAS Of hope, not a symbol.
Speaker 2:It's Friday, let's have some fun. Drag race. Dupaul's Drag Race. There was a shocking surgery after a serious infection. I know this is crazy. This is insane. The person. Their real name is Bianca Castro. Yes, but they go by the stage name and I love this stage name so much Jiggly Caliente.
Speaker 1:Jiggly Caliente is the shit dude. Jiggly Caliente is the shit dude.
Speaker 2:Well, they suffered a serious health setback and now they are going to lose most of their right leg, dude so sad.
Speaker 1:Well, it sounds like she already did oh my gosh Like due to a serious infection. Someone wrote a statement on her Instagram recently. On her Instagram recently.
Speaker 2:Yes, they say. The family of Bianca Castro, known to many as the beloved drag performer Jiggly Caliente, is heartbroken to share that over the last month, Bianca has experienced serious health setbacks due to a severe infection. She was in the hospital and then she had to lose most of her right leg. Insane, so sad Because of the circumstances, and then she had to lose most of her right leg. Insane, so sad Because of the circumstances. Bianca will not be appearing on the upcoming season of RuPaul's Drag Race Philippines.
Speaker 1:Yeah, because she did the original American RuPaul's Drag Race years ago. This was season 10. They're on season 18. Now they are moving right along.
Speaker 2:There's RuPaul's Drag Race Philippines. Yeah, so after the main first 10 seasons started happening, season 18 now they are like moving right along there's rupaul drag race, philippines.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so after like the main, like the first 10 seasons started happening, they started just becoming like this whole world conglomerate thing. There's a mexico drag race, there's poland drag race, there is philippine drag race, and then they would get all of the original cast members of drag race america and they would go back to like they're from respectively and they would host those shows. No kidding, yeah, wow. There's Canada Drag Race, which the-.
Speaker 2:Well, we don't want a Canada Drag Race.
Speaker 1:There is a Canada Drag Race.
Speaker 2:Oh, I'm sorry, I just can't.
Speaker 1:They did Really yeah.
Speaker 2:RuPaul's Drag Race Russia. They're all just killed immediately. Well, let's go to North Korea, shall we? The firing squad, the 43-year-old star she shot to fame in the early 2000, 2010. And I guess she can't. Well, is she going to be able to perform? I mean, she can fold it in.
Speaker 1:Fold it in. I mean she can. I feel like you can definitely. You know a lot of people with amputations and stuff go really far in life, but she's going to have an extensive recovery process for right now she has to put all of that on hold.
Speaker 3:Then you chop off the second leg and you actually drag her around.
Speaker 2:What Then? It's a real drag Like a hate crime, kind of like a Boston hate crime. That's what you want to do?
Speaker 3:No, it's like a fun thing Kind of Like hey, I'm doing drag over here. Sounds like kind of a dick thing.
Speaker 2:Oh, you drag her around. Sounds kind of like a dick thing to me, kyle. So kind of a Halloween costume. Like what are you guys? We're drag, yeah, and then you're just dragging around a person without any legs. Yeah, fans and community to uplift her with messages of hope and love on her social media channels. So go to Jiggly Caliente's wherever you find your Caliente Jiggly news.
Speaker 1:Oh, my God. And also I have to make a correction she was from season four, not season 10.
Speaker 3:Oh my God, she's one of the originals.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I have to make a correction.
Speaker 3:She was from season four, not season 10.
Speaker 1:Oh my God, she's one of the originals. Yeah, when RuPaul's Drag Race was really like that was like a really new thing.
Speaker 2:Well, back, and this is when things get popular. I am still a little bit like I like to be free. Yeah, and it was groundbreaking back then.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:Because drag queens weren't so well known and they weren't everywhere, they weren't permeating the culture the way they do now. So it was really something special.
Speaker 1:It was really really something different that they were doing.
Speaker 2:And now it's quite common. So it's lost. It's like Survivor. What season are they on for Survivor?
Speaker 1:99. Like 48. Yeah, oh yeah, it's ridiculous.
Speaker 2:But I still remember when Richard Hatch, who was openly gay on television for the first time, ran around the beach with his little fucking cock and balls hanging out Yep. And then he won the million dollars, and then he didn't file any taxes and then he went to prison.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that's crazy, isn't?
Speaker 2:that funny. He won on. It was the most successful show in American history and he won a million dollars. He's like do you think the government's going to know? Yeah, and they were like hey, where's all that money that you won on national television? Does the IRS watch ABC? We're more of a Fox people actually. So, jiggly Caliente, best of luck, get healthy. And now with the bionics, the one positive thing about robotics yes, they're going to destroy us and they're going to be deputized and they're going to kill all of us.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but the one positive thing is they can also make a nice fake leg these days.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, I guess, so, I guess. So To my Queens New Yorker oh, is she from Queens too? Yeah, she's from Queens too. Oh, good for her, good for her. Best wishes, best wishes.
Speaker 2:All right, let's get to a story the Highland Park. Highland Park Massacre. Do you guys remember this shooting? No, okay, this guy is such a douchebag. July 4th there was a mass shooting. It left seven people dead. The guy's name is Robert Cremo III, whoa, from a long line of Cremos.
Speaker 1:I see that.
Speaker 2:I hate people. I'm just like yeah's, frankie. The second it's like do we, does it matter a junior?
Speaker 3:frankie was my father. Yeah, we got that yeah, it's a poll.
Speaker 1:It's a lot of polish do it I feel like back then it was definitely more common for whoa. Is that the guy?
Speaker 2:that's the guy he looks like a Hitler youth. He is fucking horrifying, he looks like a cartoon.
Speaker 1:Yes, he looks like an evil villain about to attack the minions.
Speaker 2:Mm-hmm, he really does. He looks like he's got a red button on his desk and he's going to push it and blow up the world.
Speaker 1:He grew up in a Victorian household with a bunch of other orphans.
Speaker 2:Yes, he did. That's not at all inaccurate. In 2022, he opened fire at a July 4th festival in Chicago. He has now been sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole. The dude is currently 24, so I guess when he committed these crimes he was around 20 or 21. Wow, he refused. This is such a bitch fucking move, and I didn't know you could even do this. He refused to attend the sentencing hearing. Oh, wow, really. So then he didn't have to face the victim's parents or their families or their relatives. I thought you had to fucking go get yelled at.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you had to. That's literally the point of it.
Speaker 2:But he's like no'm not gonna go, I'm staying in my room and then they're like well, we're still doing it. Yeah, we're doing it anyway so get your ass out of here. But I didn't know you couldn't just not go to get. You're supposed to look at the mother and the father and the brother and the sister of the people you killed. They're gonna cry, they're gonna be like you're an asshole, you dickless fuck I hope you die in prison, and that's like half of the sentence yeah a yeah.
Speaker 1:They get off on hearing the apologies.
Speaker 3:No, they get off. On hearing the people, the victim impact statements, they're like, yeah, I fucking did this to all of you.
Speaker 2:Oh, that's another level. Well then, they don't get to go.
Speaker 1:Yeah, those shouldn't go. Yes, he should go.
Speaker 2:He needs to be forced to go. He refused to attend his sentencing hearing and face his victims.
Speaker 1:I mean, he's got seven consecutive life sentences. Give him an eighth.
Speaker 2:Give him again. Why not Just throw him an eighth At the sentencing? One of the victims says that Cremo is beyond rehabilitation, irrevocably depraved, a complete disregard for human life. This guy is such a douchebag so he ended up firing into a Highland Park crowd.
Speaker 2:He injured people ranging from the age of 8 to 80 years old Jesus and he killed a 64-year-old, a 63-year-old, 88, 78, 69, 37, and 35-year-old, and it was just absolutely awful. He fired more than 80 shots and then he fled the scene, and this is sort of a crossover with RuPaul's Drag Race. How did he flee the scene? He disguised himself as a woman. Wow, a one-legged woman no not one. Oh, come on, he had two legs, two legs, and then that kicked off.
Speaker 1:He cross-dressed is what he means.
Speaker 2:Tootsie, he was like Dustin Hoffman. Tootsie, remember that deleted scene where he shoots everybody?
Speaker 1:Yeah, or to Wong Fu.
Speaker 2:Oh, thanks for everything.
Speaker 1:Oh yes.
Speaker 2:Julie Neumeyer. So he fled the scene disguised as a woman, kicking off a manhunt. It culminated in his capture late at night. This is God, I hate this guy. So after his arrest, crimmo prank called a post reporter. What he prank called Okay, so, from the Lake County Adult Corrections Facility, at 8 pm on New Year's Eve, 2022, he prank called a reporter. And do you know? What he said Is your refrigerator running.
Speaker 3:Wow, that's correct. Wait, is that true? Yes, shut up. No, it's not.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3:No, for real.
Speaker 2:Yes, he says is your refrigerator running? Holy shit. No, fucking way, and then he starts joking, and then he starts laughing, and then he says you better go catch it, and then he hangs up the phone. Oh my God.
Speaker 1:This guy is such a turd. Moron.
Speaker 2:He is going to have a hell of a time in prison. What he really fucking said that? Yes, that's the joke he said to the reporter. I'm not making it up.
Speaker 3:I know, I was just kidding.
Speaker 1:What a hack this guy is. Oh, my God. A mass shooting at a July 4th festival you just call him a hack because he stole the joke that you said right now. First I'm saying I'm a hack too.
Speaker 2:Double hack, not a murderer, though. Yeah exactly, kyle's never killed once.
Speaker 1:I'll take a hack over a murderer, why not?
Speaker 2:So to make this guy even more of a douchebag, his father, Robert Cremo Jr, was once a candidate for mayor and a former owner of a now-closed deli. Wow, Isn't that exciting my dad's going to be mayor.
Speaker 1:I hate that so much.
Speaker 2:Yep.
Speaker 1:He's so clearly not even a little bit remorseful having a good old time Didn't even go to the sentencing hearings. Look at him, Look at it down his nose. I mean like all the way down his nose. It's just so much.
Speaker 2:Yeah, get out of here you can already see the Barron Trump 2028 shirts. Although Barron will be too young. Anyway, that's a whole nother story.
Speaker 1:Oh, my God.
Speaker 2:So cops paid a visit to the Crimo household at least twice in the years leading up to the massacre. So they were on the radar, including one incident in 2019 where police seized a number of knives from the now convicted killer. He reportedly threatened quote to kill everyone in his house.
Speaker 1:Oh.
Speaker 2:So I don't. Maybe, oh maybe, he should not have had a firearm. So the authorities they talked to the 18-year-old in front of his mother, and then his mother admitted that he had been depressed and he had a history of drug use. Crimmo is now linked to an odd assortment of tattoos, including the word awake, over his left eye so douchey An apparent nod to his alter ego and wannabe rapper. He's a wannabe rapper as well.
Speaker 3:Oh boy, now it's really gone too far oh boy.
Speaker 2:He has a stemmed rose around his neck and throat and the number 47 next to his right eye, which I don't know. What that means.
Speaker 1:Yeah, what is that?
Speaker 3:AK-47.
Speaker 2:Can you search what? Does 47 have a meaning?
Speaker 1:And what's under his eye.
Speaker 2:I have no. Well, he's got the word awake over his left eye.
Speaker 1:So maybe under his right eye it says sleep.
Speaker 2:I do both things.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:I'm a guy who can do both.
Speaker 1:Well, it's like the love-hate thing on the knuckles. Yeah, exactly, Awake sleep.
Speaker 2:That's much more for me. I like that Awake sleep. So, anyway, this piece of trash is going away for life, and I have a feeling he's not going to be such a great rapper in prison once he realizes how serious those people can be. Yep yep, anything with 47?.
Speaker 3:They're saying most likely AK-47.
Speaker 2:AK oh so lame, yep, yep.
Speaker 3:I thought this dude was like 38. That's a hard 18 right there.
Speaker 2:Well, he's 24 in that picture, I believe. So he has aged in prison. He is see-through white.
Speaker 1:He's standing next to a white wall and it is almost like he's it's like one shade off.
Speaker 2:It really is. He is making me feel like a person of color which is saying a lot, saying a lot. So anyway, to the victims of that heinous attack on one of our favorite holidays, or one of my favorite holidays, july 4th he has been sentenced and will never get out of prison, and hopefully you know this is I don't like I don't wish injury upon anyone, but his prison life, I really hope, is fucking miserable. What a piece of trash.
Speaker 3:And.
Speaker 2:I can't wait for him to rat battle somebody. Oh God, nothing sadder than that. All right, Well, let's move on. Speaking of sad killers and justice, monster death, this fellow. They call him the Babe Station Killer.
Speaker 1:What the Babe Station Killer.
Speaker 2:The Babe Station Killer. They say he's a low-life junkie and he killed a mom of nine and then, after he killed her, do you know what he did? He called a sex line. What's up with these people? I don't fucking know. So his name is Gareth Dack what. He used a ligature to kill Norma Bell and then at some point he set her house on fire. This was in 2000.
Speaker 1:Oh, my God.
Speaker 2:Yes, this was in 2016. He was 41 years old. He was jailed for a minimum of 33 years. He was found dead on this past Monday. So Gareth is finally fucking dead.
Speaker 1:Wait, he wasn't in prison dead, he was in prison.
Speaker 2:Yes, he was sentenced and then he was found dead in prison. A prison spokesperson said Gareth Dack died on April 21st 2025. As with all deaths in custody, the prison and probation ombudsman they will investigate. So Dack used a telephone wire to strangle her, which and probation o' budsmen they will investigate. So Dak used Wow, yes, he used a telephone wire to strangle her, which is one benefit of the cell phone.
Speaker 1:No more wires.
Speaker 2:Yeah, she should have gotten one of those untangle wires. Remember those infomercials growing up where everyone was caught in a spider web that was their phone.
Speaker 2:Yeah, and they're like what do I do? And they're like use this stupid fucking thing, you dumb bitch. Yeah, but anyway. So he strangled her with a wire and then he broke her ribs and he choked her. She was only five feet tall, good God. And then he cut up her clothing and then he called sex chat lines. What the heck? And where was the sex chat line? What was it called? It was called Babe Station.
Speaker 1:Oh, that sucks, because now that sex line is totally attached to him.
Speaker 2:Yeah, and it's not good.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:You're breathing so heavy You're getting close. No, I just killed this woman. I'm inhaling smoke Right. Inhaling smoke. Is this role play, or should I call 911? Yes, Exactly.
Speaker 2:So he is such a douchebag. Dak then stole, so he calls the sex line jerks off. Then he stole a boxed 49-inch television and then he lit the house on fire in a bid to destroy evidence. He was sentenced to life in prison and indeed the life sentence is officially done. A sentencing trial the judge said you killed Norma Bell in cold blood in her own home when she was defenseless. She had nothing to deserve your violence. Then you set fire to her home in a failed attempt to cover your tracks. She had nine children, six of whom were adopted.
Speaker 1:Aww, damn, I was gonna say, she damn. She was a working mom and only five feet tall.
Speaker 2:Yep.
Speaker 1:All these kids were just like flinging all over her.
Speaker 2:Well, those are. You know, you mess with a five foot tall woman, they'll kill you.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:I'm like you ever see elephants around a mouse.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:They're all down there yelling at you.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:Especially the old Italian gals in Brooklyn.
Speaker 1:Slapping the knees.
Speaker 2:Oh, I used to help this one Italian gal all the time with whatever she asked.
Speaker 1:Because it was scary.
Speaker 2:Can you get that out of a tree for me? Yes, no problem, I'll do whatever you want.
Speaker 1:You listen right here, you fucking chooch. You're going to fucking buy me those cigarettes.
Speaker 2:Looks like a fucking spawn. Villain, I will buy you those cigarettes. Yeah, my family said I can't gamble anymore, but they never said I can't give you $5 to buy me one.
Speaker 1:Just make sure you give it to me. Bring back one of those cards.
Speaker 2:I know they're so cute. So apparently he was in debt and had pressured Norma to lend him $10 the week before.
Speaker 3:That got him out of debt.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I guess he was in debt $10. Wow, that's a real fucking piece of work. And then she said no, what? And then he attacked her because she was like no. So anyway, there you go. Dak left the house twice to sell the telly, that's what they call it. They call the tell of his European. Oh, the telly to a pal. And then take drugs with a friend both times return.
Speaker 1:What's the difference between a pal and a friend? I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, A friend is like a friend.
Speaker 3:A pal is just like yeah, that's my pal.
Speaker 1:Well, I no, I would disagree.
Speaker 3:A pal's an acquaintance oh what's up, friend?
Speaker 1:Oh hey, pal man, this guy, he's being a real pal.
Speaker 2:Okay, yeah, I buy it. Yeah, I guess so like this is my friend. This is we just hang out. He started coming to this bar too.
Speaker 1:I don't know, but he's funny Just like distance.
Speaker 2:Yeah, right, right, right. We have a lot of pals in our life.
Speaker 1:Old buddies, old pals. What's up pal?
Speaker 2:What's up, pal? So he sold the television. Then he went to take drugs with a friend and then he came back and that's when he lit the house ablaze.
Speaker 1:So he's dead.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that's probably for the best. It's for the best.
Speaker 3:He probably thought what the most expensive thing to do would be, after he killed her, to be like fuck you, you don't want to give me money. Now I'm going to rack up this tab and it's a sex line.
Speaker 1:That's so stupid.
Speaker 3:It's like $5.99 a minute.
Speaker 1:What a fucking immature loser.
Speaker 2:You could have given me $10, but now you're dead and up your phone bill, right, you just gotta jerk off real quick.
Speaker 1:But the thing with those sex lines much like a psychic line.
Speaker 2:They edge you oh, oh shit. So like a psychic line will be like just three more dollars and I think we're gonna tell you what's gonna happen next week and then the then the sex line is like just stroke it, stop touching it stop touching it, just stay hard for me just wait, I'm not ready yet. And then all of a sudden you pay $150 to nut on your stomach.
Speaker 1:Yeah, interesting, interesting it is not, but I will say the name Babe Station, pretty catchy it is. I hope they can move away from the serial killer and just go back to being like hey, welcome to the station full of babes. Exactly your babe station.
Speaker 2:It's Babe Station, yep, babe Station. Been there before. Well, speaking of semen, we have discussed, maybe briefly, the sperm race that's going to happen.
Speaker 1:Oh, that's right. Oh, that's right.
Speaker 2:So there's going to be a sperm race. This is all going to happen under a microscope, Literally, guys are going to be jerking off and then they're going to watch their sperm race. This is the future.
Speaker 1:Holy shit.
Speaker 2:Universal health care no.
Speaker 1:This is what adult guys do, but they learned it from college when they were standing in a circle and trying to put what is it? Syrup on pancakes. Oh whatever, you guys all have a name for it.
Speaker 2:What was it called Syrupy pancake?
Speaker 1:Syrup and pancakes. Syrup and pancakes.
Speaker 3:This is happening today.
Speaker 1:Oh horrifying.
Speaker 2:The sperm race is happening. What it's USC versus UCLA, what the fuck is going on. We'll cover it on Monday. We'll do a full recap.
Speaker 1:But why are they the cutest little twinks I've ever seen?
Speaker 2:in my life Because their spunk is strong and young. Look at them. My semen is literally smoking a cigar, trying to investigate a crime. Their semen is still like I love eggs and mine is just like I think I'm trying to be a vegan. Okay, so the world's first ever sperm race is on deck. It's happening today.
Speaker 1:Tristan versus Asher.
Speaker 2:Yes, two young sperm donors, both probably gay for pay, but most likely strayed on the weekend. Yeah, tristan from USC and Asher from UCLA. They are preparing to do battle.
Speaker 1:Why is Tristan doing the shush thing against his lips?
Speaker 2:It's kind of like a Rizzler type thing, I think he's like shh.
Speaker 1:don't tell anyone I'm about to jerk off. Don't tell my parents I'm doing this.
Speaker 2:Please I mean honestly if my kid did this, that would be front row.
Speaker 1:He's holding up his nose too.
Speaker 2:Yeah, he is kind of holding up his nose Go get him son. I'd be like that spunk that he made is my spunk too. That's my boy's voice, so that's my boy. They are going to do a full-blown sperm athletic competition.
Speaker 1:You can't call it athletic.
Speaker 2:It they well okay.
Speaker 1:It's not athletic. It's not athletic.
Speaker 2:Okay, live sperm racing is not athletic. No, so you're saying NASCAR is also not a sport?
Speaker 1:Oh, so you're saying that the little sperms are in there just kind of stretching and warming up?
Speaker 3:They've been having a little coach in there.
Speaker 1:That's like we've got a big day coming up and we're not going to lose this time.
Speaker 2:Yeah, just one sperm who's older than the rest, because he didn't get shot out like a month ago. He's like I stayed in. I know what the world's like out there. I crawled back in Hold on for dear life. So Tristan and Asher, they say their healthy lifestyles and diets are going to make their sperm best swimmers.
Speaker 1:Pineapples.
Speaker 2:Well, that's for flavor. And they've also said they are abstaining from sex. They've been abstinent.
Speaker 1:Ew, it's going to be so much so much.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, it's really gross. So there's a startup, it's a science startup, right, this is again the sperm racing science startup.
Speaker 3:Yes, it's going to be huge. That's why they're shirtless for science.
Speaker 1:Yes, Right, that's another thing. They that's why they're shirtless for science. Yes, Right, that's another thing. They both have like these necklaces. They both have necklaces with crosses on them. No, actually, I think Asher has a cross and then Tristan just has a T for his name.
Speaker 2:Right. No, they're going to get ran through if they come to Hollywood Play at the Hollywood Palladium. Oh wow yeah, Some Hollywood producer is just ready to go.
Speaker 1:Oh my God, so many of them, what?
Speaker 2:Okay, so how is this? This is very serious. So Tristan says his medical report shows that he's got more testosterone than Asher. Ooh, asher's a bitch, so he's predicting his high T will get his sperm across the finish line first. Nice, though Asher's not backing down, he has a strong rebuttal. Friday's race is expected to draw 1,000 people and there will be a synchronized start before Tristan and Asher's sperm race through a track mimicking the female reproductive system.
Speaker 1:No, not mimicking the. What does that mean?
Speaker 3:They're getting catfished.
Speaker 1:It's going to be shaped like two ovaries and a cervix. What are we talking here?
Speaker 2:If I was this sperm, I'd be like what the fuck guys?
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:This is bullshit. It'd be like working really hard and then getting a fake hamburger at the end.
Speaker 1:It's like getting set up on a date with a wax museum thing statue and being told that it's actually Beyonce.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I'll have some fun with that. I got a fucking lighter.
Speaker 1:Well they're hoping Soften it up yeah.
Speaker 2:Sir, can you please? I'm just trying to make her vagina more vagina. She's wet, wow, and it burns. It burns. Should have waited. Should have waited. I'm half wax, so we'll see what happens. We'll keep you updated. Who wins between these two hunks? Does that?
Speaker 1:mean that when they start doing it, people are watching them honk it out, or the games begin as soon as it exits out of the body.
Speaker 2:They have to have a starting gate. The sperm are all going to start at the same time. It's all under a microscope, obviously.
Speaker 1:Right.
Speaker 2:So I don't know, are they going to select a few sperm, or is it going to be the billions of sperm?
Speaker 1:Do they?
Speaker 2:wear numbers? Do they have little sperm jerseys?
Speaker 1:They're also not alive for a very long time, unless they're shot directly into something. So, it has to be fresh.
Speaker 2:It'd be kind of cute if the sperm stopped for a little Gatorade, you know, like a marathon.
Speaker 1:And there was little tiny sperms on sidelines, tiny cups.
Speaker 2:Like marble racing with Cum the Cum UFC. So I don't know. That's what's happening now. It's stupid. It's all so dumb.
Speaker 1:Where are the thousand people going to be?
Speaker 2:I don't know, can we bet on this Seriously? Can we bet on sperm racing? Because if Vegas hasn't picked up on this yet, they are on the fucking.
Speaker 1:I'm Tristan all the way.
Speaker 2:I'm going to go. I'll just go Asher, but I do, I'm Tristan all the way. I'm going to go. I'll just go Asher, but I do. I kind of like Tristan better because he's a little more saucy. Yeah, he's got a lot of character he really does, and he said his spunk is a little bit more high T.
Speaker 1:He says yeah, he's like I have medical science proven.
Speaker 3:Right. Look at these guys.
Speaker 1:They're just standing in front of each other with a microscope in between. Like they're both just like they're going to be, like and go, and then they both start jerking off like towards the Petri dish. Is this how they're going to?
Speaker 3:do it. If this is a real competition, you should have them side-by-side and they're jerking the other one off.
Speaker 2:But then what's the incentive to jerk the guy?
Speaker 1:off. The race is not them jerking off.
Speaker 3:If they're weaker, they're going to come first. I think if you get to the egg first, you lose.
Speaker 1:I hate you so much. I don't want this.
Speaker 3:I mean, it is, you came first. You're gay. No, you're gay, bro. You're still jerking me off. You're gay.
Speaker 1:It was you not done yet. Hey, buddy the sperm's supposed to go in the thing, not your mouth, Sorry reflex.
Speaker 2:Wait, what Reflex God Robin? I misunderstood, they didn't call me marshmallow in high school for nothing. Just cum bubbles all over the place. Oh God, they're actually going to come into the Petri dish. They're going to come into the Petri dish and then their sperm is going to be.
Speaker 1:I don't know. I mean it's just I can't believe this is happening.
Speaker 2:Why didn't this happen during fucking COVID? That's what.
Speaker 1:I want to know. We would have all been watching.
Speaker 2:Good God, almighty it was underground then it was happening, you know.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it was underground. It was still pretty taboo back then, but now it's 2025, you know, things are changing.
Speaker 2:I'm just happy male specimen is getting a little bit of fucking respect around here. Everyone's like, oh, the eggs are finite. Yeah, eggs are finite, we must respect the egg. And it's like no, let's see how this cum can work, work, work, work, work, work. So anyway, best of luck. We'll keep you updated. When is the race? Is it tonight? It's tonight Tonight.
Speaker 3:In fact, we got to go, we got to go.
Speaker 1:We should go see it.
Speaker 3:It's for research. I got to see what the tickets cost.
Speaker 1:It's part of our high-profile journalism.
Speaker 2:Yeah, just there, with a little notepad, it'll be my Hunter S Thompson moment, exactly. Yeah, we can take a bunch of mushrooms and acid, yeah, and acid.
Speaker 1:Just be in like Edward James Olmos glasses and a bucket hat, yeah. What are tickets going for?
Speaker 3:Sperm Racing LA Circuit. Tonight, April 25th, 6 pm at the Hollywood P-P-P-Palladium.
Speaker 1:Why is it at an arena, I don't know? Oh, it says event canceled Event canceled Event canceled.
Speaker 3:After all this, what they're scared. What the fuck? No, I'm so pissed off. No fucking way, dude.
Speaker 1:One of them got drunk and had a one night stand last night.
Speaker 3:Then he spunked Tristan spunked.
Speaker 1:Tristan spunked, he couldn't handle the fame.
Speaker 2:Oh, oh, it switched venues. Stinky situation. Where's it at now?
Speaker 3:Let's see Switch change of venue From the Palladium yeah, and it sold out, by the way.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I'm sure it did what. I'm sure it freaking did sell out.
Speaker 1:Who bought these tickets?
Speaker 2:We are.
Speaker 3:Well, it's USC versus UCLA, so it's probably a ton of people like rah-rah for their school.
Speaker 2:Of course, yeah, wow, this is college athletics. This is peak college athletics.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that's pretty on the nose.
Speaker 2:I mean they start drafting these kids or scouting these kids in like fourth grade. Now we might as well just spunk, Just look at the semen and be like that's an offensive lineman right there. I see he's going to be great at Purdue.
Speaker 1:Okay.
Speaker 2:All right, anything. They're keeping this underground.
Speaker 3:Tickets were refunded. La Center Studios oh, is that a studio? Okay, so LA Center Studios, yeah, a popular 20-acre campus known for hosting conventions and festivals.
Speaker 2:Okay, well, there you go. Let us know If you were there. Let us know how it went.
Speaker 1:Let me see that photo of them dressed like fucking scientists With. Let me see that photo of them dressed like fucking scientists Yep, with their robes.
Speaker 2:Oh my God, it's so fucking funny.
Speaker 1:What the hell Good for them oh.
Speaker 2:Lord, okay, all right, well, just lastly, you know we're going to dim the sun. Oh, wow, what? Yeah, scientists have received approval to test whether dimming the light from the sun will combat global warming. Geoengineers at the Advanced Research and Invention Agency. They've been given $66 million to inject aerosol particles into the stratosphere and it's going to reflect the light from the sun so that it's going to make the Earth less hot. And so we're doing that now.
Speaker 1:That's insane. Also, it's really funny that a bunch of scientists were sitting around and then one had like a crazy idea and was like, oh guys, you know what I do when I think the light's too bright, I dim it. I dim it and everyone's like oh my God, we should dim the sun.
Speaker 2:So isn't that the amazing thing of science. It goes from cum racing all the way to sun dimming.
Speaker 1:Yeah, they're really doing it up there.
Speaker 2:So the conspiracy theorists? Probably another W for them. I think they've been talking about how they're going to fuck with the sun for a long time and it'll be really exciting. So Mark Symes? He says the uncomfortable truth is that our current warming trajectory makes a number of such tipping points distinctly possible over the next century. Anyway, what he's just saying is it's fucking really hot and a bunch of shit's going to happen. And then he says having spoken to hundreds of researchers, we reached the conclusion that a critical missing part of our understanding was real world physical data. These would show us whether any of these potential approaches would actually work and what their effects would be. So they're working on doing some seeding and then they're going to dim the sun, and so that'll be super exciting. As you can see here, a plane will fly by. It looks kind of like what they would call a chemtrail, and then that chemtrail will dim the sun.
Speaker 3:Well, yeah, I mean hopefully that's all it does. They might come back and be like, hey, we fucked up, the sun's gone. Yeah, they blew up the sun, we're about to have an ice age.
Speaker 1:No, it's fine. We're going to come up with an LED light system. It'll be fine. They're trying to make the sun Bluetooth accessible so that they can switch around the colors and the dimming of the sun.
Speaker 2:Hey, hear me out. Can we put a nipple on it? Shut up, why are you here?
Speaker 1:It doesn't even go here.
Speaker 2:Some people are calling this quote barking mad. They say this is barking mad, don't do it.
Speaker 1:So they only asked British people how they felt. I get it.
Speaker 2:According to Michael Mann. They say the area geoengineering program is a dangerous distraction from the work that needs to be done to achieve net zero carbon dioxide emissions.
Speaker 1:So, anyway, what a world we live in. It's insane, the things that they're thinking of coming up with and then actually coming up with.
Speaker 2:They're really doing it.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:They're really freaking doing it.
Speaker 1:This is what they get for letting us grow up.
Speaker 2:You know the world that we are in.
Speaker 1:All the idiots you went to school with back then. That's who's happening right now.
Speaker 2:I know, adults I know.
Speaker 1:These are adults.
Speaker 2:It really is.
Speaker 1:Sperm racing.
Speaker 2:Sperm racing Sun dimming, sun dimming.
Speaker 1:We're in it.
Speaker 2:I guess I'm happy to be growing up in this timeline.
Speaker 1:It's an interesting one, I'll say that.
Speaker 2:It's interesting, I mean back in the day you're like, oh, we have TV. That I can't believe TV was invented. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, we're racing coming dimming the sun.
Speaker 3:Right, it's just so much more, and we're just supposed to deal with all this. The future.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's so fucking stupid I didn't realize it could be so stupid.
Speaker 2:It is a combination of the Flintstones and the Jetsons. Yeah, Because we're like rock people but then also, like my maid, can blow me and clean well, that's.
Speaker 3:That's a conspiracy theory is that the jetsons happened before the flintstones they got so advanced, they ended up fucking dimming their sun and then went back to the fucking how the hell do you know that?
Speaker 2:I'm into weird things I see that yeah he is yeah like rocks kyle and I are gonna race our fucking cum yeah and I'm gonna leave.
Speaker 1:I will not be attending that all right, well.
Speaker 2:Well, any comments from the chat.
Speaker 3:Yes, pano said ready, set on your marks come, come, come, come, come come come come. False start False start Bring it back.
Speaker 2:Bring it back, come on.
Speaker 1:They can't control that. They both come at the same time.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I mean, yeah, that's the thing what's going to. Is God real? Is God real? Why does sperm know how to swim? Why does it know how to run? Why does it know what, if you just have a sperm that just sits there like a lazy fucking sperm?
Speaker 3:Yeah, come on, let's go Then just starts playing sperm video games.
Speaker 1:Go, you fuck. And then three of them on the side are like we're going to start a podcast and talk about the race coming.
Speaker 2:Oh my God, but we're not going to actually do it. We're going to lose work to sperm and AI. You fucks, oh lordy.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I mean, everyone's just pretty much shitting on that guy with the 47 tattoo.
Speaker 2:People are saying it might have to do with the hitman from the hitman game.
Speaker 3:Oh my God, Hitman game.
Speaker 2:Oh my god, which would be so much worse, so douchey, so weak, absolutely, yeah, alright. Well, thank you all so much for listening to another great week of OK Bud.
