Sadie is back, and apparently we are all supposed to pretend she did not abandon the show for two weeks to float around on a cruise ship eating buffet shrimp and living her best international-waters life.

This week on Sadie and Scott, we kick things off with Sadie’s cruise debrief, then launch a brand-new segment called Ask Sadie, where listeners ask for advice about dishwasher crimes, eight-minute voice notes, loud-breathing husbands, school craft guilt, and the office monster who microwaves fish.

We also revisit a topic we mentioned before: different names for your period from around the world, including strawberry week, ketchup week, Aunt Red, blood festival, and possibly the greatest phrase ever created, “communists in the gazebo.”

Plus, we cover the deeply chaotic world of cheese rolling, where people voluntarily throw themselves down a hill chasing a wheel of cheese, and we play a new game called Things You Can Say in the ____ That You Can’t Say in the ____.

No politics, no doom, just cruises, bad advice, weird sayings, questionable games, and two friends making each other laugh.

SPEAKER_00

So if uh listeners out there in listener land might notice that we haven't had an episode in a couple of weeks, it's because Sadie decided to fuck off on me and go on a cruise.

SPEAKER_03

Did you see the videos?

SPEAKER_00

I did. Somebody taught you how to use reels and like captcha and stuff like cap cut and whatever. I didn't use that. I used reels. You used reels?

SPEAKER_04

I have to show you the um the other one I made. It's just of me drunk. I'll show it to you when I get there.

SPEAKER_00

I think I have about 14 of those on my phone already.

SPEAKER_02

Oh, you I made a good one.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, you did, did you? No, I didn't.

SPEAKER_00

Okay, so tell us how was okay. Are you a cruiser now?

SPEAKER_04

I think I might be a cruiser. I would I would like to try it again.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, okay. So you and Todd are coming on a cruise with us then.

SPEAKER_04

I I would I would like to.

SPEAKER_00

Oh, good. Okay. All right. So tell us, tell us about the cruise and tell us how you fucked off on me. Okay. Left me sitting here with my dick in my hand for fucking two weeks while people on Instagram were like, where's next episode?

SPEAKER_04

Did you have fun with your dick?

SPEAKER_00

Alright. No. Oh, here we're God.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. Those sound bites are out of control. Oh dear. Oh God. Oh no, I said it again. Okay, so how I acquired this cruise.

SPEAKER_00

This is how I found out. Text message. Are you coming to record today? No, I got a pack, and you know, the cruise leaves in three hours. I'm like, what the fuck, man? No heads up, no warning.

SPEAKER_04

No, I it was very, very last minute. My cousin uh Renee LeBlanc is an influencer.

SPEAKER_00

I think we're gonna get her on the show, actually. We are, yeah. We'll chat about that afterwards. I've never actually spoken to an influencer before.

SPEAKER_04

It's uh it's a very interesting job. They make really good money.

SPEAKER_00

You know what I'm gonna tell her this? You know what I love that she doesn't do?

SPEAKER_04

What?

SPEAKER_00

Because I've watched all of her reels and the TikToks. The TikToks, yeah. She never taps things and she never like you know when they have to like with their fingernails? Fuck off.

SPEAKER_04

The uh the ones that well, you would probably it's not in your algorithm, but when they put makeup on and they just they take the product and they just squeeze it on their face and start. I'm like, stop. Okay, so basically what happened was she got a free cruise, Virgin Voyages, uh, Richard Branson, is that his name? He was actually there the whole time.

SPEAKER_00

Are you kidding?

SPEAKER_04

He was on the boat, whole time, like in the movie, walking around. Yeah. So he invited, I believe it was 400 influencers plus their one that they could bring. Some up, some brought other influencers, some just brought their friends, some brought their family, cousin, which is what I am. So uh yeah, she just threw it out there and very last minute and went on this cruise.

SPEAKER_00

And you then you just completely abandoned your family and you BFF.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

You you were like like you were like a fucking cat with a toy. Like fuck everybody else. Here I go.

SPEAKER_04

I was out, yeah. Well, I was kind of excited. It was my first cruise. I've always wondered what it was like. Now, I will say being on a cruise with 400 people that are glued to their phones and you know, doing all the things with like the tripods, tripods set up, and you know, you're weaving and wobbling through people recording and doing dances.

SPEAKER_00

Did you ruin anybody's cut?

SPEAKER_04

I probably did.

SPEAKER_00

Oh, good. I would have waited there was only 400 people? Was it the Scarlet Lady or the Scarlet? Yes. Okay.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, plus there are one. So about 800 people on this boat. So that's it.

SPEAKER_00

But that was it. There wasn't any regular, regular guests.

SPEAKER_04

No, no regular guests. It was all for influencers. And then they had like a TikTok thing set up, and you know, people talking about, you know, I guess they're how to drudge up business and like you could go to these little seminars if you want to. They give you, you know, a credit on the boat. You could use, you can go get a tattoo.

SPEAKER_00

You could, you know, they have a tattoo piler on the scarlet on all the virgin ships.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, the tattoo.

SPEAKER_00

Do you think I'd be a good influencer? What would I what would be my influence's hats? It would be hats.

SPEAKER_04

Really weird hats.

SPEAKER_00

Which are you saying the hat I'm wearing right now is weird? Well, this is a style, by the way.

SPEAKER_04

It's not the pylon hat.

SPEAKER_00

I never actually published it.

SPEAKER_04

I I wish you could see when he says style. No, you also have a big chunk of hair stuck to the top of it. Like it looks like it came out of a vacuum or something. Oh, oh, you almost got it. I don't know. It's a tough to pair.

SPEAKER_00

No, I don't have a lot of hair up there anyway, but yeah, well, just leave it.

SPEAKER_04

I like it. Oh super stylish. There it goes. Okay. No problem.

SPEAKER_00

All right, so you really enjoyed the cruise. You're a cruiser now, which I'm very excited about, by the way, because we're cruisers.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, it was fun. The entertainment and the food were next level.

SPEAKER_00

Yes.

SPEAKER_04

Right.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah. And you know what I love about cruises? You get to visit different countries, but you don't have to stay there. So if it sucks, you can leave and go back onto the ship.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. Here's what I here's what I would be a little concerned about with going on just a regular cruise with thousands of people, right? So this was small. We weren't herded. You know, it uh when you get off the boat. I mean, we just left off the boat really quickly, but I think there's a lot of people that don't love that.

SPEAKER_00

No, disembarkation is very easy when it comes to these places. Like they want you happy when you leave.

SPEAKER_04

So you don't have to wait until like a lineup to get off the boat.

SPEAKER_00

No, you basically just give them your your wristband or your little medallion. Like Princess Cruises has a little like UFC, like an NFC chip.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, we have we had one of those as well.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, like a wristband, and you basically just scan it and walk off the ship. But if you don't like the port, like we went to Tortula or you know, or whatever it was called. Yeah. St. Kitts and Nevis. It was really great. Like we took a catamaran to the to this island, and you know, we didn't get to go see the Hamilton stuff, but you know, but we were in the British we were on another island. It was like, this is boring. Let's go back to the ship and go to the arcade or whatever. So you can get to choose. And then the a ship's not like a resort. There's 17,000 things to do. Because the shows are real.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

I think I've mentioned that before where we've been to the resorts where they pulled some random homeless guy and hey, you look like you can do a Michael Jackson impersonation.

SPEAKER_04

Cooking your eggs that are singing at nighttime, right? Where yes, this felt a lot more curated to like you had the you know, higher. Absolutely. Yeah. And what's the real ones? The magician was unbelievable. He was so rad. He was so cool. And then also the drag queen, oh, never saw a drag show that funny. It was like a variety drag show. Okay.

SPEAKER_00

I can get into that.

SPEAKER_04

Oh god, it was the best. It was the best. But met a lot of really cool people. I actually met a girl, and now I don't have my phone on me and I would have liked to plug her actually. She uh was paraplegic. Uh, there was actually a number of uh influencers that were in um that had you know disabilities and in wheelchairs, but she travels the whole world influencing how to travel in a wheelchair. In a wheelchair.

SPEAKER_00

Good for her.

SPEAKER_04

Like she took an unfortunate situation in 2005. She was uh hit by a drunk driver, lost someone in the car as well. Um, and yeah, in a wheelchair. Beautiful, absolutely gorgeous woman, unbelievable, like great style, beautiful face, really, really sweet. I think she's Spanish. Um, but yeah, she took it and ran with it. Awesome. Yeah, she makes tons of money, travels all around the world. Like it's it's pretty cool.

SPEAKER_00

Okay, well, start saving your start saving your loonies and tunies because you're coming on a cruise with uh Joanna and myself. And maybe we'll maybe we'll bring Todd with us.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, oh never know.

SPEAKER_00

Okay. Or maybe we'll just bring somebody else.

SPEAKER_04

Okay.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, he can stay home with the boys. No, no, he can hang out with me, just as long as he doesn't dress like he did in Las Vegas.

SPEAKER_03

He will.

SPEAKER_00

Like a like an indigenous no, he was dressing like Shady Acre's retirement home and just let him out for the afternoon. All right, so okay. So we're not he's not lying. We're planning our next cruise for 2027 because Joe and I already have ours booked, and I don't think you want to fly to Europe.

SPEAKER_04

So I can't in 2027.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, you can, because I said so.

SPEAKER_04

SPEAKER_00

Welcome everyone to Sadie and Scott. My name is Scott. I'm one of your hosts.

SPEAKER_04

I'm the other Sadie. Hello. Scotty Renova.

SPEAKER_00

We've got a packed show for you today. Oh, packed. A lot of it is very Sadie-centric. It is. I'm no, I'm serious. It's very Sadie centric. So, okay, first segment, here's what I did. Okay. I went onto our socials and said that I would like people to write in.

SPEAKER_04

The sound of you doing that is giving me the misophonia thing.

SPEAKER_00

Just because I moved my beard.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, I don't like it. Okay, don't do that again. Okay, probably continue. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

So I asked them, uh I I always believe that you're you're really good at advice, at giving advice to people. I am. You are.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_00

So what I did was I reached, I I reached out on social media and we got an email as well. Uh I asked our listeners to send us um questions for you. In a you ever heard of you remember um Dear Abby?

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

The advice columnist.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

Uh we're calling this segment Ask Sadie. Oh no. Yeah. Ask Sadie. Oh dear. That's gonna put some music in there.

SPEAKER_04

That's a lot of pressure.

SPEAKER_00

Oh, I'll put some really nice like harp harp music or something right. Ask Sadie.

SPEAKER_04

Okay.

SPEAKER_00

All right, so this one, uh, here's your first your first ask for advice, Sadie.

SPEAKER_04

Oh dear. I'm kind of nervous.

SPEAKER_00

The title of this is Dishwasher Crimes.

SPEAKER_02

Oh. Oh, where's my uh in order thing?

SPEAKER_00

Hold on. Did I even do that? I know, maybe I didn't keep that on there. Oh well. I forgot it and I don't know where it is. Okay. Uh where the hell is it? Do you want me just to do it?

unknown

All day long.

SPEAKER_00

That's it. Okay. All right, here we go. Dishwasher crimes from Megan in Buffalo, New York. My subject is my husband loads the dishwasher like a fucking raccoon. My husband loads the dishwasher like he has never seen dishes, water, or consequences before.

SPEAKER_05

Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_00

Bowls face straight up, spoons are nesting together like they're in love. And somehow every mug comes out holding a tablespoon of dirty water.

SPEAKER_05

Okay.

SPEAKER_00

When I correct him, he says, it all gets clean anyway. It absolutely does not. How do I fix without becoming the dishwasher police?

SPEAKER_03

Sex.

SPEAKER_00

Really?

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

What do you like? Describe them. Like I'll give you a hummer if you do this this way.

SPEAKER_02

You don't think he will? Oh, I think he will.

SPEAKER_00

Maybe he's doing it this way so he'll either have to do it. Well, well, okay, listen. Men fuck up things on purpose so that they don't have to do them again.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, come on.

SPEAKER_00

Okay, you obviously have not encountered it yet with the age that your boys are at, but at some point in time, there you're gonna ask them to do something, you're gonna show them how to do it. They will fuck it up so badly that the words that will be coming out of your mouth will be, that's it, I'm never asking you to do that again. Oh they walk away going, Win.

SPEAKER_04

Okay.

SPEAKER_00

Well So I think men fuck these things up on by purpose, as Liam said.

SPEAKER_04

On by purpose, yes.

SPEAKER_00

And so that way the wife goes, you know what, I'll just do it myself. And then they get to go and watch TV.

SPEAKER_04

I think this segment should flip because I just got some really good advice.

SPEAKER_00

Well, I give you some inside info. I didn't really give Megan in Buffalo.

SPEAKER_04

It's like men concrete advice.

SPEAKER_00

But I think maybe just saying, hey, look, there's a handy in it for you if you do this this way.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

All right, there you go, Megan. Yeah. I hope that helps.

SPEAKER_04

Yes, Megan, I hope that helps. And sorry. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry about that advice.

SPEAKER_00

All right. This is from Amanda in Halifax. The subject line is my friend sends eight-minute voice notes. Hi, Sadie. I have a friend who sends voice notes that are eight, nine, even ten minutes long. No warning, no headline, just a full audio documentary about her trip to Winners. I love her, but I can't keep setting aside setting aside time to listen to what is basically a woman woman podcast. What do I tell her? Ask Sadie.

SPEAKER_04

Megan, right?

SPEAKER_00

Amanda from Halifax.

SPEAKER_04

Amanda.

SPEAKER_00

Amanda, she may be like one of those Halifax girls that just live Sadie.

SPEAKER_04

I mean, does she uh does she spend a lot of time alone? Like maybe she needs a little bit more, you know, a little bit more uh from the friendship from you.

SPEAKER_00

Well, I think what she's asking you is how does How do you tell her to say fucking stop doing this? Oh how do you tell her that?

SPEAKER_04

Without sounding like a total biatch.

SPEAKER_00

Yes, and without hurting her feelings because she thinks that this is probably the easy like I don't like the typing with the thumbs. I'll just leave a like she's 75, like me.

SPEAKER_03

Right.

SPEAKER_00

So how do you tell her enough? Just fucking call me or text me.

SPEAKER_04

Um, okay. All right, here we go.

SPEAKER_00

Where's my harp?

SPEAKER_04

I need to have the button on your phone is broken. Like you can't actually access that part of your voicemail that you actually need to like something is wrong with your phone. You could just text her. Uh you could text her.

SPEAKER_00

No, these voice voice notes, I'm assuming, are the ones that show up inside your text message. Inside the text message. So, yeah, and what if her friend is an auntie?

SPEAKER_04

Oh, oh, oh, okay. Here we go. So this happened to my phone. This is real. All right. Where my the um I couldn't hear. It was almost like the something actually was wrong with my phone. Like I could not hear it. I had to put it on um like speaker to hear it. So it's just something wrong with your iPhone. For some reason, you can't uh really hear. So you just we need to just text.

SPEAKER_00

Okay, so lying and manipulating as opposed to just stop sending me phone.

SPEAKER_04

You need to blame it on your phone. You can't. What do you have all over you?

SPEAKER_00

Oh, coffee or something?

SPEAKER_04

Uh no, you can't actually tell her to stop doing that. You can't, why not? I d it's a big thing.

SPEAKER_00

See, that's the difference between men and women.

SPEAKER_04

It's gonna sound so we it's gonna sound so bad. Why don't you have black shit everywhere?

SPEAKER_00

I don't know why. Oh, what no? I think it's coffee. You have coffee on your shoulders from the coffee grounds. I don't know.

SPEAKER_02

It's on your shoulders.

SPEAKER_00

I know. That's the weirdest freaking thing.

SPEAKER_04

You need to be wearing black.

SPEAKER_00

My headphones.

SPEAKER_04

Oh black. Oh, you got so excited when I said that.

SPEAKER_01

All black.

SPEAKER_00

There we go. Okay. No, my headphones are falling apart, I think.

SPEAKER_04

Uh oh. You know who you know whose headphones aren't falling apart?

SPEAKER_00

This girl. So, Amanda, uh, lie and manipulate your friends. You know, if if it was a dude, he would just call him and go, dude, you send me another 10-minute voice message, I'm gonna kill you.

SPEAKER_04

Okay, well, you can't do that because everyone on the block's gonna know you're a bitch.

SPEAKER_00

All right, so here we go.

unknown

Okay.

SPEAKER_00

Dave in Peterborough says, My wife says I breathe too loud.

SPEAKER_04

That's probably true.

SPEAKER_00

Hi, Sadie. My wife says I breathe too loud when we watch TV. I am literally just sitting there being alive. I don't snore, I don't talk over the show, I'm just breathing. How do I defend myself?

SPEAKER_04

Okay, there's something else that's happening in your relationship that's causing her to feel this way. Absolutely. That's deep. And if she's in her forties, he doesn't state that. Okay, well, I there's something else happening. There's something else that you're not doing that's driving her crazy. So she's taking the something that you have to do, which is breathe, and making a problem out of it. So could we I think he needs to clean the house or he needs to do some more chores, check some stuff off a list.

SPEAKER_00

No handies.

SPEAKER_02

No, God, no, no, don't do if the breathing is bothering her, do not go at her with that.

SPEAKER_00

Well, our last episode was about menopause. Maybe she's just fucking fed up with him. Yeah, yeah, could be.

SPEAKER_04

Well, that's that was my first little So what is what does Dave do?

SPEAKER_00

Don't breathe?

SPEAKER_04

Dave needs to check some stuff off a list.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_04

He needs to ask his wife.

SPEAKER_00

It's deeper than this.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, yeah. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

For him to say, all I'm doing is breathing.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, no, that's not you. I hate I'm sure you're a great dude, okay, but there's something else happening.

SPEAKER_00

Here's one that you'll probably be able to identify uh identify with really easily, which this is from Nicole in Austin, Texas.

SPEAKER_04

Does it have to do with P?

SPEAKER_00

No, it has to do with school crafts. Oh do I have to keep every school craft? Hi, Sadie. My kids bring home crafts every day: paper plate, suns, handprint turkeys, cotton ball sheep, glitter blobs, things with googly eyes that appear to be medically unwell. I feel guilty throwing them out, but my house looks like a daycare exploded. What do I do?

SPEAKER_04

Okay, I have two solutions for you. All right. Okay. I throw them all out, but you can't do it right away. You have to have a spot. So they bring something home. I know I have three kids. They bring something home. You you wow it. This is so cool. You leave it on the counter. Okay, you leave it on the counter till like they go to bed. Okay. So that way you're not throwing it out right away. Then it goes in a cupboard. Okay. But it goes in the cupboard for like a week. Okay. It goes high up in the cupboard. They will forget about it within one week. I promise you. Then you throw it out. Okay. Solution two. If it's little um like papers and whatnot, you can get these little shadow boxes that are pictures, shadow boxes that go on your wall, and you can put them in there, and then they just turn into like a little bit of an art. Put them in their art room, put them in their room. And then you just switch it out. Yeah, you just switch it out. You know, when they bring something home, you open the shadow box, you put it in there, all is good.

SPEAKER_00

Excellent. Okay. Well, I'm Nicole in Austin, Texas. I hope you learned a little bit. I, on the other hand, would keep it in a bin in the basement so that when he's 30, you can look back and he can say, Do you remember that ashtray that I made you in grade?

SPEAKER_04

You don't know, you don't know how many kids.

SPEAKER_00

No, I threw that out.

SPEAKER_04

You don't know how many kids she has. Like if I had I have a bin, it was full. It was full like 10 years ago. So I can't keep like keep like Okay.

SPEAKER_00

Well, you live with your conscience about that. We lost a lot of Liam's artwork from his preschool, grade school days to a flood. So I'd like you to feel good about yourself now that you throw them out.

SPEAKER_04

I do yeah, I do. I throw them out.

SPEAKER_00

All right, let's move on because Sadie is falling behind on her keeping crafts.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

Office fish criminal. This is from Anonymous in Toronto.

SPEAKER_04

Office fish criminal?

SPEAKER_00

Someone keeps microwaving fish at work.

SPEAKER_04

Ooh.

SPEAKER_00

Hi, Sadie. Someone in my office keeps microwaving fish in the lunch room. Everyone knows who it is, but nobody wants to say anything. The smell moves through the building like a ghost with unfinished business. How do we stop this without creating workplace drama? Oh, that was the wrong one. No, that's the fish. That was the fish.

SPEAKER_04

That was the right one. I mean, can can we just not leave a a note, like an anonymous note?

SPEAKER_00

Well, I used to work in an office where there was three signs on the cupboards and over the mic, no fish for lunch. That was it.

SPEAKER_04

I I think that's as simple as that.

SPEAKER_00

Or don't bring it at all.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, that's a that's a I feel like that's a simple one.

SPEAKER_00

So how should how should they handle it though? Do they go to their boss? Can you go directly to the person and say, listen, Susie? I wouldn't go directly to the whole fish thing not working with everybody.

SPEAKER_04

You can't go to the person, I don't think that will cause the drama. Right. But you know, go to your boss. Okay. Go to HR.

unknown

All right.

SPEAKER_04

You know, you just leave a little note that everyone has to follow. Like it has to be a general no, it can't say like no fish, but just it can say, you know, please keep in mind of you know, sensitive smells and you know, so a suggestion.

SPEAKER_00

I actually worked in an office once where I was only there occasionally.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

They had a no perfume policy.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

Wow, could you not swallow or drink on the fucking microphone, please?

SPEAKER_04

I'm thirsty.

SPEAKER_00

I don't care. You wait until there's a break. Okay, great. There'll be one in about 20, 30 minutes. No. Um, no perfume allowed in the office. I can see that. Like no sense at all. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

Well, they do that at hospitals and stuff.

SPEAKER_00

You couldn't you couldn't like even walk through perfume in the morning. You were not allowed to walk.

SPEAKER_04

Could you imagine like grade seven and eight teachers what the smells they have to deal with? Oh god. I can't with the like body acts, then the the ones that don't, so then they just fucking reek like, oh god, they come home and smell like it.

SPEAKER_00

Oh it does.

SPEAKER_04

And there's no air conditioning. Oh, and those portables. Those co-teachers.

SPEAKER_00

Oh geez, I don't know if I'll just oh God.

SPEAKER_01

No.

SPEAKER_04

She sounds perfect together.

SPEAKER_00

All right. So let's move on.

SPEAKER_04

Thank you, Sadie, for your am I done with my my ridiculous advice? Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

So um, thank you, everyone. If you want to uh join in, we'll bring this segment back.

SPEAKER_05

Oh.

SPEAKER_00

Um ask Sadie. We'll bring it back. So send us in your questions, and Sadie will give you advice. Unsolicited or solicited. So there we go. All right, let's move on to segment two. We talked about this.

SPEAKER_03

Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_00

I think it was the last episode. When we were talking about menopause, we were talking about menstrual cycles, and I think I mentioned we called it ant flow.

SPEAKER_04

Ant flow, yeah.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah. So I did a little of the Googling.

SPEAKER_04

Oh.

SPEAKER_00

And I found different names for a woman's menstrual menstrual cycles from other languages and other countries.

SPEAKER_04

Oh no.

SPEAKER_00

So real quick, we're going to go through these.

SPEAKER_04

What is the origin of ant flow?

SPEAKER_00

I don't know.

SPEAKER_04

But flow not makes it.

SPEAKER_00

Okay. I don't know, but it kind of actually here's um Germany. Are you going to speak German? No, I'm not. I'm going to attempt to say it, but I'm going to try to do it phonetically with an English accent or Canadian accent. Uh-huh. And I apologize to any of our German, French, Italian, Danish, Chinese, Japanese, Spanish, or Portuguese listeners because I'm going to butcher this. Air deerwalk. See, I fucked that up right away. I wish Erd Beerwalk. I knew you were going to spell it.

SPEAKER_04

I wish, I wish I I had my camera so I could post the way you get really excited. Like it's like your whole body is in erection right now as you're trying to say you're so excited.

SPEAKER_02

Okay, go.

SPEAKER_00

All right. So here's. So that was German. Okay. And you know what that means? It translates to strawberry week. So because you gotta remember, it's not a direct translation to ant flow.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. It's what they use.

SPEAKER_00

It's their euphemistic take on strawberry week.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, that's so weird.

SPEAKER_00

Here's a rule in the rota rota tante. Rota tante. That was pretty good, so words. Red ant.

SPEAKER_04

Aren't red ants like super vicious?

SPEAKER_00

Aunt. So I should have said it that way. Aunt? Aunt.

SPEAKER_04

Red aunt?

SPEAKER_00

Well, aunt. Like aunt. Aunt pet ant flow. Red aunt.

SPEAKER_04

Red aunt. Oh, I th oh I thought you meant like a little aunt. Red aunt.

SPEAKER_00

All right, here's one. Here's one in French. Again, I like I live in a fucking bilingual country and I can't speak French very well. Les Ragnarak. Fuck. Hold on. They ragnagas.

SPEAKER_02

Oh my god. Do not repeat that again. Don't try it again.

SPEAKER_00

Les Ragnaras. No, that's not even it. There's no R at the end of it. But you know what it's it loosely translates to the grumblings.

SPEAKER_03

Oh.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah. Where else country? Italy.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, this is gonna be good.

SPEAKER_00

Mara Rosso.

SPEAKER_04

SPEAKER_04

The relatives have arrived?

SPEAKER_00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

Or haven't arrived.

SPEAKER_00

Sono arrivate e la zia, which is ant in Italian. So it basically translates to the ant has arrived.

SPEAKER_04

Okay.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

So this is all adaptations from what we like. That's so strange.

SPEAKER_00

Here's from Denmark.

SPEAKER_04

Okay.

SPEAKER_00

In Danish, damage. Oh. Translates to Lady Days. That's pretty classy.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, you're not gonna try?

SPEAKER_00

No, because that would be just ridiculous. Look at how I butchered fucking French, and we live in a bilingual country. Okay, here we go. So China has some names, and these are just English translations. Uh, eldest aunt, good friend, little red. I don't it might you know, I'm again I'm not gonna sound like some fucking redneck asshole. Uh-huh. The the last one they have is bloody Mary.

SPEAKER_04

Whoa!

SPEAKER_00

Oh, I know they might, but that's the translation, so it may not mean that exactly what they're trying to say. Uh in Japan.

SPEAKER_04

This is gonna be pretty conservative.

SPEAKER_00

It has to be it is, except for the last one. Oh so they call it now again, there would be a Japanese word. It does not necessarily translate directly, but it's a euphemism. So monthly things. Yeah, there's one.

unknown

Monthly things.

SPEAKER_00

Girls' day.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, I like that.

SPEAKER_00

Um, guest.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, like your little guest is coming.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, and then another one would be blood festival.

SPEAKER_03

Oh no.

SPEAKER_00

So yeah, so maybe that is maybe there is a thing called a blood festival that has absolutely nothing to do with menstruation.

SPEAKER_04

But okay.

SPEAKER_00

That's what's some Spanish words. And I'm again, I'm gonna butcher this. I'm so sorry, folks. It means little red riding hood. That's the euphemism for the re regia, which means the rule. That's another one they use. Okay. Uh Andreas, which means to translate as the one who comes once a month.

SPEAKER_04

That's the translation of Andreas.

SPEAKER_00

I don't know. I guess it's hey, listen, I don't write the language. Okay. Uh here's Portuguese. Again, I'm gonna f Noqueles dias, which is in those days. Uh okay. That's a weird one. You're gonna love this one. Mare Vermelha.

SPEAKER_04

Okay.

SPEAKER_00

SPEAKER_04

Oh, the red tide.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

I feel like I'm like it's like a Game of Thrones. The red tide.

SPEAKER_00

The red wedding.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

So those are some that was just a real quick segment. Those are some some different countries that have their own little euphemisms for flow.

SPEAKER_04

Okay.

SPEAKER_00

Now you ready to get into a news story.

SPEAKER_04

I love that you were looking this up. Like, how long did you I did not spend a lot of time.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. Well, it's liquid.

SPEAKER_00

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, that that just took a turn. It was so it was it was kind of nice and endearing. And then all of a sudden it was that.

SPEAKER_00

SPEAKER_04

Blood festival.

SPEAKER_00

Oh, blood festival, yeah. All right, let's move on to our funny news story of the week.

SPEAKER_04

Okay.

SPEAKER_00

All right, so this one is actually funny, but everybody knows it.

SPEAKER_04

Oh.

SPEAKER_00

Um, so I'm gonna see if you know it too.

SPEAKER_04

I probably don't. I don't know things.

SPEAKER_00

So in Gloucester, England, at this time of the year, uh-huh, um, I believe it's happening in at the end of May. Um, you may have seen videos of it. It is fucking dangerous. Like you couldn't pay me. Even in my youngest, best knees, best shoulders, best hips, like me at 24 years old, you know, all my ligaments intact.

SPEAKER_04

Okay.

SPEAKER_00

You still could not pay me to do this. What? This is the annual Cooper's Hill cheese rolling race in Gloucester, England.

SPEAKER_04

I want to I I think I've seen this. And they they roll a like a thing of cheese down a hill and they have to chase it or something.

SPEAKER_00

And whoever gets it gets to keep the cheese.

SPEAKER_04

Yes, yes, yes. I've seen that.

SPEAKER_00

Now that I've like honestly, and it's not him, it's not like it's a humongous cheese wheel, like it's only by 12 inches. No, it's so dangerous.

SPEAKER_04

I've seen it, yeah. Um like major, major injuries down on those like ragdolls down the hill.

SPEAKER_00

Did you know that the cheese apparently can reach speeds of up to 70 miles an hour going down that hill? Which means yes, which means that people's bodies are going down. And it's a steep hill.

SPEAKER_02

Steep, I know.

SPEAKER_00

It's freaking dangerous, but I wanted to kind of bring it up because this is like some kind of May thing. It's like, you know, the running of the bulls. Yeah. Which is stupid again. God.

SPEAKER_04

Um it's a very, very weird thing to want to do, but hey, you go at it. Let's see what else the article says. Catch the cheese, catch the cheese, people.

SPEAKER_00

So participants raced down. Not at her age now, but maybe when she was 20, sure. I think we all would have done it, but honestly. Okay, so participants race down Cooper's Hill, which is a 200-yard long incline, throwing their bodies under the ground and having hilarious fun. Yeah, so fun with a broken clavicle.

SPEAKER_02

Hilarious fun.

SPEAKER_00

There are sore bodies and scores of injuries, and the entrants finish dirt streaked and weary, but raving that it's the most exciting 10 minutes of their year. Okay, you guys need to get a good hobby then. Yeah. Victory goes to whoever survives the descent, crosses the finish line, and grabs the cheese. Actually, some boy boy, some guy from North Carolina in 2022. Um, he won. Oh, wait, hold on. A 2020-year-old uh the in 2022, a 21-year-old North North Carolina native named Abby Lampa won the woman's cheese roll race. And she was quoted as saying, It's a funny thing. I love doing competitions, especially ones that are obscure. I've done the Krispy Kreme challenge where participants eat a dozen donuts halfway through a five-mile race. Oh my god. I'm just a very competitive person. I think you have some serious mental health issues.

SPEAKER_04

That is bizarre. I mean, put your energy into something else.

SPEAKER_00

She actually that's weird. Do you know what is even funnier? You have to do it like on your TV. Do you have access to YouTube? Look up the Gloucester Cheese Race on YouTube, on your big TV, and pause it in various increments. Yeah, you see, like see people's faces because and the positions that their bodies get put in. It is ridiculous, and it's not a smooth hill. It's like just and oh god, no, thank you. My knees are sore.

SPEAKER_04

Just thinking about it.

SPEAKER_00

And this dates back over 600 years, by the way. So people were stupid 600 years ago.

SPEAKER_02

Glad to see we've gotten nowhere.

SPEAKER_00

Oh god, you could not pay me to do maybe if I had like a sled or a toboggan with wheels, no, because then I'd still crash. But they don't nobody wears helmets, nobody's wearing wrist guards, knee pads. It's crazy. We won't let our kids go out on their bike with a helmet on.

SPEAKER_04

I know.

SPEAKER_00

And these guys can. But these adults are running down a hill, you know, a steep 200-meter hill. Idiots.

SPEAKER_04

I wonder if they have to sign a waiver.

SPEAKER_00

Oh, I guarantee you they do. They do, for sure.

SPEAKER_04

Um just to come out of it with cheese.

SPEAKER_00

And honestly, like if you're and like clout, like like what is it?

SPEAKER_04

I won and I got cheese. It's so strange.

SPEAKER_00

No, there's a picture of this dude holding the wheel of cheese. It looks like you could get it at a deli in in a grocery store.

SPEAKER_04

Well, that's probably where they got it.

SPEAKER_00

No, but like I'm not risking life and limb for a little itty-bitty roll of cheese. If it was a giant thing of like Parmigiana Reggiano or something like that, yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_00

Because that's well, that's that shit's worth a fortune. It's like traded on the commodities exchange. Right. This looks like a little Brie thing. Here, Kerstee. Here's some brie. I ran down a hill for it.

SPEAKER_02

It's not dirty at all.

SPEAKER_00

Not at all. It didn't end up in any like cow poop or mud or people's blood as they're face first down the hill. Okay. So now that I want to get my joints back, I need some ice bags right now, just reading that article, but let's get into uh we we're gonna do a new game.

unknown

Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_00

By the way. We're doing a new game.

SPEAKER_03

SPEAKER_04

All aboard.

SPEAKER_00

No, no, no, no. Do we give that up?

SPEAKER_04

I don't know. I've been on one cruise. Now you expect me like I'm a fucking boo for that one. I'm not a cruiser.

SPEAKER_00

Well, I know, but are you supposed to be using your skills as an improv actor?

SPEAKER_04

I'm not an improv actor. This actually makes me very anxious.

SPEAKER_00

How about this? I'm drinking at 1030 because technically we're in international waters.

SPEAKER_04

Okay.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

How about that?

SPEAKER_04

But what do they say? Like what is a what are the what are the words they use?

SPEAKER_00

You have staff meetings, do you not?

SPEAKER_04

Yes, I have staff meetings.

SPEAKER_00

Okay. So think of something that you would say on a cruise that you wouldn't be able to say in a staff meeting. It's getting kind of rocky in here.

SPEAKER_04

Do you want to know what my staff meetings are though? I don't know.

SPEAKER_00

Shots of tequila?

SPEAKER_04

Yep. I'm not kidding you.

SPEAKER_00

That's what we do. Oh well. Um what else do I have here? Things you can say in a cruise that you can't say during a staff meeting. I don't know these people, but I'm doing karaoke with them later.

SPEAKER_04

Okay.

SPEAKER_00

Or how about I've had three breakfasts and I'm not done. You wouldn't want to say that during a staff meeting. Oh, here's one. I'm going to disappear for four hours and come back sunburned. Oh, I wouldn't fly in a staff meeting anymore.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

The captain said it was fine, so I stopped worrying. That one sucked. I'm drinking, I like the one I'm drinking at 10:30 because technically we're in international. I like that.

SPEAKER_04

That was that was my favorite one.

SPEAKER_00

All right. So here we go. Uh, things you can say at the dentist that you can't say on a first date. We've both been to the dentist and we've both been on first dates, so can you think of anything?

SPEAKER_04

Can I spit this out?

SPEAKER_00

Huh? Go ahead.

SPEAKER_04

Can I spit this out?

SPEAKER_00

All right.

SPEAKER_04

You know when you swish?

SPEAKER_00

Hold on. Where's my correct button here? Oh, I like that one. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That was a good one. Open wider.

SPEAKER_02

SPEAKER_00

Oh, here's one you do not want to hear. This might bleed a little.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

Not on a first date. Yeah. Ever. Oh, you're going to feel some pressure.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

Just breathe in and relax.

SPEAKER_00

Just relax.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, just relax. When you have like the oxygen on.

SPEAKER_00

I love this one. Try not to move your tongue. I get it. I get a correct bell for that.

SPEAKER_02

That was a good this was a good one.

SPEAKER_00

Okay, so you have uh so something you don't want to say on a first date would be you have excellent gums.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

That would be a bit of a red flag. It would be very weird. Okay, how about if you need a break, raise your hand? Because I had the dentist says that to me all the time.

SPEAKER_04

Doesn't say that to me at all.

SPEAKER_00

She does. And she like honestly, I had to have a tooth extracted a little while ago.

SPEAKER_03

Okay.

SPEAKER_00

So you you go into my dentist's office, and and uh proudly I can say that they're all women.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

But they are the biggest fucking sadists in the world.

SPEAKER_04

What?

SPEAKER_00

Oh my god. So it doesn't matter who you get. There's no like I'm Dr. Schock, you know, Schwarzen's Schwarzenegger? No.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

Or I'm always with Dr. Smith or whatever. It's just you come in and they walk in and introduce themselves. I'm fairly new.

SPEAKER_03

Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_00

So I walked in and she said, What are we doing today? And I said, I don't know. You fucking tell me. Like seriously. You didn't say that. I did. I said, you tell me. She goes, Well, what do you want? Do you want your tooth extracted or do you want me to do some fillings today?

SPEAKER_04

What? You had a choice?

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, well, because I have fillings and I needed to have a tooth extracted because I had a root canal and the crown broke off. So they're like, fuck it, we're just gonna pull it off. No, because I would fucking like I gotta eat.

SPEAKER_04

Well, then your jaw would hurt. Oh, you could say that. You can't say that.

SPEAKER_00

She was a fucking sadist. She was. And like at one point, okay, so she so I decided I said, okay, let's let's pull the tooth.

SPEAKER_03

Okay.

SPEAKER_00

Right? And I was like, I can still feel that. She goes, No, you can't. And I'm like, don't tell like you could still feel it. Oh, she was like, she gave me like three. I need I need extra freezing, right?

SPEAKER_04

So because you're 17 feet tall.

SPEAKER_00

So she's so she's like, no, there's no way you can feel this. I'm like, I can feel it. And guess what, doc? It hurts. Okay. I mean, it also maybe had to do with the fact that while she was trying to pull it out, she had her fucking knee on my chest. Like she needed leverage. She's like five foot four. She at one point. No, she's just this little blonde dentist. And she literally, I mean, she she at one point she had to leverage herself on my chest and then used my jawbone as an as a fulcrum to try and get it. And she and I'm like, I can still feel it, right? So she's like, fine, I'll give you more freezing. There's only One nerve there, you know that, right? I'm like, well, I can still fucking feel it. Why don't you how about I punch you in the face and then you tell me if you can feel it after?

SPEAKER_04

Why aren't you getting gas as well?

SPEAKER_00

No, I don't know. I'm a lot of dentists don't use gas.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, I yeah, yeah, no. Yes, they do. You have to order it. You have to tell them you want it.

SPEAKER_00

Sorry, before I continue, my exciting dentist's story. You're drooling, but that's normal. Oh, here's here's one you do not want to hear on a first date, but you hear all the time at the dentist. I'm gonna numb you up first.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_00

All right, so anyway, she's got her knee on my chest, and she's just going to town. And I'm like, ow, put my hand up, right? Because she said she's like, good suit. I'm like, I can still feel it. She goes, that is complete bullshit. There is no way you can feel this.

SPEAKER_03

Come on. So what'd you do?

SPEAKER_00

Well, I was like you were getting mad. I was. I was getting like a little upset.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

And the the the dental assistant could see my frustration.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

Because I'm she's in there. She's got a fucking crowbar going into my gums. And she's fucking grunting as she's doing it. Like she's trying to lay pipe on the fucking rope. And she and she grunts once. Like she, like, I'm like, okay. Stop. Done.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, really?

SPEAKER_00

And she's like, just give me five more minutes.

SPEAKER_04

Oh no. No, no, no, no, no. No, no, no. So did you leave with your twos? No, I eventually came out.

SPEAKER_00

Well, okay, so half of my friends who listen to this podcast are just gonna tell me to put on my big boy pants. Yeah. But I put on my big boy pants and I was like, all right, hurry up. You got 30 seconds. She's like, I just need a minute. And then she's like, and done. And I was like, I can still fucking feel. And then she just packs me full of cotton and says, All right, have a nice day. Oh I was like, I don't want you ever again.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. Well, you can't can you specify? Because you said you can't.

SPEAKER_00

Well, I don't want to be that patient. Right. Oh, he doesn't want Myrtle as his dentist anymore.

SPEAKER_04

Why is it Myrtle?

SPEAKER_00

I don't know.

SPEAKER_04

Okay. What a weird choice of name.

SPEAKER_00

I don't remember the doctor's last name, to be honest. And you know, I'm respectful.

SPEAKER_04

Very, very clear description of her.

SPEAKER_00

So well, no, they're all five foot four blondes. Is that why you're going there? No, actually, Joanna just booked it one day and she's like, it's the closest dentist.

SPEAKER_02

You saw the lineup and you were like, Yeah, I can get down with this.

SPEAKER_00

No, because it's they all look the same. I'm like, which doctor are you? Oh. Because they all look the same. I'm like, who are you today? And I'm like, she's like, I'm Dr. So and so. I'm like, are they hot?

SPEAKER_03

Like, are they cute?

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, I mean as cute as can be expected in scrubs and a mask.

SPEAKER_04

Okay.

SPEAKER_00

Because they're all I see is blonde hair and a mask, right? Because they wear their PPE, right? So uh let's move on. You said the story stops. You said PPE.

SPEAKER_04

You said PPE.

SPEAKER_00

Things you can say while assembling IKEA furniture that you can't say during sex. Are we missing a screw?

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, past the uh past the Allen key. As in the dick as the Allen key.

SPEAKER_00

No, you don't even need to explain it. That was good. This is bigger online.

SPEAKER_02

It's really wobbly.

SPEAKER_00

I've got to tighten it. Stop forcing it. It's not lined up. Why is there an extra piece? I don't know.

SPEAKER_04

This doesn't feel very sturdy.

SPEAKER_00

Can you hold it steady while I tighten this? That would have to be said with anger. The instructions show two people doing this. Not my house, because I everybody knows I will not help or put together.

SPEAKER_04

No, me either. We've talked about this. No way. I'm not good at that.

SPEAKER_00

I don't know what this little wooden peg is for, but it seems important. Oh, that's a good one. Uh, we may have to take it apart and start again.

SPEAKER_04

But I don't do it. I just Todd's so good at it. He just he doesn't have to look at anything. He just looks at it and does it.

SPEAKER_00

Actually, he just closes his eyes and it gets done.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, it's amazing.

SPEAKER_00

He put together that IKEA stuff for Joe's makeup table in our bathroom.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

He did it in like 30 minutes.

SPEAKER_04

It's crazy.

SPEAKER_00

Things you can say at a wedding.

SPEAKER_00

You can't say at a traffic stop, meaning you got pulled over for speeding or something at a traffic stop. So everybody's been drinking since noon.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, okay. I was thinking more of the ceremony.

SPEAKER_00

Okay.

SPEAKER_04

I don't know. I can't think of anything. This is one I can't think of.

SPEAKER_00

I hope it lasts longer than the last one.

SPEAKER_04

Oh. People can't say that at a wedding.

SPEAKER_00

Well, you don't say it out loud. You say it quietly to the wife to the per to my wife, who I'm like, fuck, let's hope this one lasts longer than the first one.

SPEAKER_03

No.

SPEAKER_00

Things you can say at a hair salon that you can't say in a hospital operating room. And again, I'm not like I'm not hitting home runs with all of this.

SPEAKER_03

Just cut it a little shorter.

SPEAKER_00

I brought a picture of what I want.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

There's a delay, but we're still hoping to get movings.

SPEAKER_04

SPEAKER_00

I didn't get my upgrade, but I got the points. I wrote we may we may experience some turbulence turbulence. I'm gonna need to inspect that before we proceed.

SPEAKER_00

Oh, there we go. All right. We're almost done. The pain is almost over, like at the dentist's office. And by the way, just to let you know, FYI, after my tooth was pulled, I couldn't open my jaw for three weeks properly.

SPEAKER_04

That is that is an easy diet.

SPEAKER_00

I almost went back and said, You fucking broke my jaw.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, ooh.

SPEAKER_00

Like I couldn't open my mouth fully to even bite into a sandwich. Like two slices of bread.

SPEAKER_04

What tooth was it? A back tooth.

SPEAKER_00

Back molar. Yeah, almost like the one just in front of your wisdom teeth, which I don't have either. So now I get this huge gap back there. Nice. I don't think the folks listening want to listen about this. Your gap. So um we got two reviews, by the way.

SPEAKER_04

Alrighty. So um Where are they at, Scott? Where are they at?

SPEAKER_00

So this is from Rachel in Austin, Texas.

SPEAKER_04

Rachel, how's it going?

SPEAKER_00

I started listening to Sadie and Scott while folding laundry, and now I purposely save laundry for when a new episode drops. That sounds depressing, but honestly, it works. You two make normal topics way funnier than they should be. It feels like sitting with friends who are just slightly more inappropriate than I actually am. Five stars. Also, Scott deserves more credit. Sadie is obviously the star, but Scott is a very strong assistant star. Jesus, thank you. I'm an assistant star. Thank you very much.

SPEAKER_04

Scott and Rachel, Scott does everything. Like he does everything. He he figures it all out. I just come here and sit down and barely do anything.

SPEAKER_00

Strong assistant star. I've never even I've never even heard that title before. Like I've heard of co-star. Um I like it. Guest star.

SPEAKER_04

I like it.

SPEAKER_00

Hi, and welcome to Sadie and Scott. I'm your assistant star, Scott.

SPEAKER_04

We should do that.

SPEAKER_00

This woman is smart. Thank you, Rachel. Texas.

SPEAKER_04

She figured out how to make laundry better for herself.

SPEAKER_00

She did. This isn't a this is her now her laundry folding podcast. Yes. Mark in Glasgow, Scotland. Do not try to do a Scottish accent, please. Oh, I was just about to. Yank.

SPEAKER_02

Did you see? I got all perky. I was like, ooh, ooh.

SPEAKER_00

You know, by the way. No. You said to me on the menopause episode that Joe was going to kick my ass. Did she? We were in the car. We had a drive. We had to drive across the city. So driving across Toronto. Yeah. You know, it's 10 kilometers away, but it took us two hours to get there. Of course. We listened to the episode together. By the end of the episode, she was mad at me. She was yelling at me for an eyebrow hair. Uh there was like something else. She was so mad at me by the end of it. I was like, but I thought you were out of parameters. Like she was furious with me. Oh, she just like later, she's like, Don't talk to me ever again. And I was like, What the fuck did I say that was so bad?

SPEAKER_04

I mean, it's just sometimes it's just breathing. This goes, this goes back. This goes back to that guy. I know. Right?

SPEAKER_00

Yeah. I'm just breathing. Just breathing. She was really upset.

SPEAKER_04

Okay. Yeah. Let's not upset Joe again.

SPEAKER_00

All right. Mark in Glasgow, Scotland. No Scottish accents, please. Okay. He looks and he says, I look insane at red lights.

SPEAKER_04

Oh.

SPEAKER_00

Let's find out why. Mark in Glasgow, Scotland.

SPEAKER_04

What's happened at the red light there, Scott?

SPEAKER_00

I listened to Sadie and Scott on my commute, and I have definitely been caught laughing alone at red lights. The best part of this show is never feels forced. It sounds like two people who generally make each other laugh. And that makes it impossible for me not to laugh alone. Also, please please keep doing games. The games are where the wheels come off. And I mean that in a nice way. Thank you, Mark.

SPEAKER_04

Thanks, Mark.

SPEAKER_00

I also want to read you.

SPEAKER_04
