And uh prepare to be let down. Um no, I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. We have some awesome stuff planned for today. We do? We do. We have some incredible.

SPEAKER_01 0:39

They haven't told me they they figured out.

SPEAKER_03 0:41

We have an awesome, we have a we actually have another guest today, and it's gonna be awesome. It's not Spencer, for those of you wondering. People have been asking, and people also have reached out and said he needs to you guys really pick on Spencer, and then my dad really gave him a rough time. He said some nice things. He did do that. He did, he did. He did, he said some nice things at the end because that's what we do. We we we tear down to build up. Right. Correct. I like it like a muscle. That's how you grow. How about that? I didn't know that. Yeah, clearly. Um, but don't laugh a little too hard. No muscles, no muscles.

SPEAKER_01 1:21

Sky's weak. Yeah, whatever. We're just glad that uh summer 2027. I'm ready for it. Next year. Yep. He's locked in. Not this summer. This summer I completely unlocked or locked out.

SPEAKER_03 1:32

He's locked in. Yeah, no. You have a fun fact for today that we heard? I don't have a fun fact. I have a question for you.

SPEAKER_00 1:39

You literally said, Oh, I'm the best fun fact.

SPEAKER_03 1:41

I no, no, no. It's more of like a thought. I was driving home the other day pretty late, and so I was thinking about things um just about life in general. Why so late? I was just doing I was just out. Alright. Don't worry about it. Stop asking questions.

SPEAKER_01 1:55

Just needed a few minutes to myself. No, but I was out driving late. Thought of this, right? Okay. Okay. I love these. These are is there a better or more important like adjective to describe something than business?

SPEAKER_03 2:12

Water shoes. Okay? I think a more descriptive. No, you heard me wrong. I did.

SPEAKER_01 2:20

I said was a more important adjective. So these are water shoes. We'll just stay on the topic of shoes for now. But like baby shoes. Yeah. Babies are important, sure.

SPEAKER_03 2:32

Not more important than water. No. Bowling. That's just a sport. Right. Bowling.

SPEAKER_01 2:40

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Hiking. Hiking. That's a cool activity, but it's not that important.

SPEAKER_03 2:47

Cement shoes. What's cement shoes? Like the mafia. I never heard of that before. That's how they drowned people, you know.

SPEAKER_01 2:53

Water shoes, though. Yeah. Water, dude. 70% of the earth. I don't think you know what an adjective is. That's an adjective.

SPEAKER_02 3:02

Absolutely not.

SPEAKER_01 3:03

Water shoes. What would be how would I be describing these shoes?

SPEAKER_02 3:07

Water shoes, right? That's an adjective would mean that the shoes are made of water. Okay, then whatever. What is it? Adverb or something?

SPEAKER_03 3:16

Adverb is the name as a noun acting as an adjective? Yeah, it's just a noun. Okay. It's just a fake noun. A fake adjective. Acting as an adjective with a disguise on. Whatever it is. But also you're saying water water shoes. Yes, water shoes. What about water skis? Exactly. But water, I just thought of water shoes as that, and I'm like, that's the most important adjective that we could ever add to something. Water way to describe it is adding it before a thing is water. Is water. Because it's the most important thing in this world. Water bottle. Yep. Bottle of water. Water.

SPEAKER_02 3:52

I'm so confused. AirPods. Air.

SPEAKER_03 3:56

We need air. Ground hog? Ground. We need the groundhog. Which is why the goat, Air Jordan. Air Jordan, see? You need air. We need air. Can you think of something more important? Nope. No. Can't. Bodies are 70% water. And we need air to breathe. 70 and 70, that's 140%. Nothing's beating that. Can you is there something that's something that we can think of with water and air in the same in the same thing? No, I don't think so, dude. Come on. That sounds crazy. Right? That's too much.

SPEAKER_02 4:31

That's too much.

SPEAKER_03 4:32

Like an air water gun or something. Yeah. And now you've added gun to it, too. Now we're really talking. Yeah. So that's what I think about at night.

SPEAKER_01 4:41

That's the dumbest thing of all time.

SPEAKER_03 4:43

Your brain is just a dude. The other thing I was thinking about, I don't know if we want to know this. No, yeah, let's let's hear it. The other thing I was thinking is, is it possible? This might already exist. But I wonder if you could change on a GPS, because I was driving, obviously.

SPEAKER_01 5:00

And it's like when you look at the directions and it's like exit 43 for 3.7 miles and then get on Route 1. Can you go into your GPS and like change it to what you know it to be?

SPEAKER_03 5:11

Like, what's that called where it's like me and my dad would say, like, oh, it's the Walmart exit, and it's exit too. Right, like a landmark. A landmark instead of exits. Oh, I always tell you. I always tell people that. I'm like, oh, wiffle ball exit. Like, you know what that is. Exactly. But I couldn't tell you the number and gave me a hundred guesses, I couldn't tell you.

SPEAKER_01 5:29

So I'm like, why can we not do that on my GPS? Like if directions were more like that.

SPEAKER_03 5:34

It was like drive to like he was explaining. Whoa, sorry. Aye. He was he was explaining. Wait, it's a dog. He was explaining that gas station that I went to, that car wash to me, and he was like, it's exit this and Ansonia. And I was like, dude. And then he was like, no, take a left and when you see the gas station, it's but and so like that. I think I think most people's brains work like that much better. How awesome was that car wash? Listen, we don't have an advertisement for today. Okay. We do kind of, but not a paid one. Yeah. What's it called? Optimo? Optimo. Optimo?

SPEAKER_00 6:20

Optimo. Well, they're all military. You guys ever been to Op Demo?

SPEAKER_03 6:25

It's about Spanish. It's I mean, it that's basically what it is. What is Optimo? Demo. I don't know. In Spanish. This guy It's not a word. It is Spanish. It has to be a Spanish word. He doesn't know Spanish. Never heard optimo. Optimum. Oh. You should have said that. Nah. Look it up in Spanish.

SPEAKER_02 6:44

That is, yeah, yeah. That's what I'm saying. What's optimum? It's a Spanish word for optimum. Ideal. Yeah. Or very best. Optimal. Optimal is an English word. That's why I said it.

SPEAKER_03 6:55

It's optimo. They are the best. It is. Alright, so. They sent me to this gas station in because I was like, man, I need a car wash. But I don't like I always go to the one, you know, where you just drive through it, whatever. And but my in the inside of my car needed to be washed. But I'm not trying to pay $150 for some you know teenager to come detail my car at my house. You know what I mean? Yeah. That sounds so I went there. Weird anyway. 30 Yeah, that did sound weird. Um that's always what it is. The traveling details are always kids. Yeah, it's a kid with a barted hose in the He's like, Hey, do you have a hose hook up anywhere? You know, like it's we don't need all that pressure washer you got from Home Depot. Too much. Yeah. So I pull up so these you know, Spencer and Mateo both told me about it, and so I went yesterday because I need and it was like $35. $36, dude. When I tell you my car, they they washed it, then they hand washed it, then they dried it, then they hand dried it, then they did the whole inside. My car looks brand new.

SPEAKER_01 7:58

But if you have dude, they're like pushing through cars like everyone.

SPEAKER_03 8:04

Oh, they were they were cleaning the inside of four cars. We there was I was sitting at the picnic table, they were cleaning four cars at once. Oh, there was at least 15 or 16 people working there. When I went there, I didn't go there, but I went to the gas. One stuff. One guy taking the money, two guys doing the spraying, then two girls doing the washing, then another like six, seven, eight, nine people. Holly, dude. Crushing it. Yeah, it was awesome. I sent my wife today to it. Summer was like, where's that gas? I was like, go, go, go do it.

SPEAKER_01 8:38

Just go. It's right next to wherever. I'm sure that's what you said.

SPEAKER_03 8:41

But I literally texted her and I said, put put it, plug it into GPS and go. It's the one behind the gas station. The one connected, because I guess there's more than one. That's all I need to do. If you're listening and you work or have at Optimo or own it, we'll shout out to you. Thank you. Thank you. There was one other thing that I just had wanted to talk about before we get into what we're gonna get into today, and that is your hair situation. Oh, okay. I know we talked about your leg hairs last week on the podcast, but we're hearing through the grapevine that you are thinking about shaving your head. I would love to shave it. Or at least cutting it fairly. Nah, dude, I'd do like a like a Justin Timberlake justified vibe. Like justified. Like a Justin Bieber, like that kind of vibe. Exactly. Not like a skin fade on the side or like just a skin. Like a number two or a number three, just blend the beard. Blend the beard, maybe, dude. I'll do it if you do it. I'm like that. Nicole, if you're watching, we will. That's the problem. Nicole is not like the uh short hair. So even when I like trim my beard too low, she's like no, summer doesn't like when I shave my beard either. But uh we've we're gonna shave both your heads. Not on the pod, but we're gonna do it. So dude, can we do it on the pod? If you guys, if I'm not sure, I don't think people would really care to see that, honestly. But you guys know.

unknown 10:02

What's up?

SPEAKER_03 10:04

Nicole Nicole just murdered Devin for shaving his head. We're gonna do it. It's gonna be awesome. Alright. But okay. What do we want to talk about today? Today, sorry, that was too loud.

SPEAKER_01 10:15

Um, I would like to talk about nature. I love nature. I love nature too. We've talked a little bit about it here and there on the podcast for eagles and such. Some fun facts. Eagles, man, that's way back. That's a thrill.

SPEAKER_03 10:29

And then my dad last week gave us the whole uh I've I've got a couple texts from people saying they're never eating honey again. Yeah, which I was more into it. B story for that bee story. And then he showed me some video of some fish. Did he show you that video of that fish that makes that like display in the sand just so that the lady fish will come fertilize it? And then like, I mean, it's I mean, I'm talking this guy is making this guy making this thing in the sand. It's in it's incredible. Nature, man.

SPEAKER_01 10:59

So nature and wonder, um, like losing our wonder and and how we do that and and how we get it back.

SPEAKER_03 11:06

Our wonder for God's creation for nature. So, to do that today, we wanted to invite a very special guest. Yes, and we will. What did you have a verse quick before? Nope. I'll share that during the time. Oh, alright, cool. We got a special guest today because we're gonna talk about nature, we're gonna talk about wonder, and we're gonna talk about the awe. Don't bump your foot with my foot, dude. Kick uh we're gonna talk about the awe of all that God has created and all that he's done. And to do that, I'm a visual learner. I know you are also a visual learner. We've seen the places your brain can go without visuals, so we thought it would be I'm not wrong, I'm not wrong. What does that? We mean this guy's this guy's brain is a scary place sometimes. That's all. No kidding. We thought it would be awesome, and so we got a little help from one of our friends at the church. Oh, yeah. To bring in a couple of things that we could see and learn from. And so Priscilla is here. Some of you might recognize her. Priscilla, come have a seat on the on the couch. What? We're supposed to.

And kids, right? Do you help with kids ministry? I love kids. Okay. Okay. All right. That was great. I'm gonna say this start. Yeah. It sounds a lot better when you say that than if me and Devin had said that. Teenagers come to your house for car detail. I mean, we do, okay. Uh so Priscilla has the podcast has opened so many doors for us and blessed us so many ways, but this might be the best way. Sorry, Papa, sorry, Dad.

Older than duty. They just ate both of you.

I have a friend who lives in Arizona, and they have a uh her and her husband, they have a tortoise that lives in their backyard. Just in the shills in their backyard. She was a kid. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 24:10

Well, it'll probably live longer than her if it lives to 100 years old. Do you want to hold him? I just want to pet him.

SPEAKER_04 24:15

He's really, really cool. He can actually feel it when you pet his shell, too. Wow. This is the same stuff that's made out of our nails, too, keratin.

SPEAKER_03 24:22

Okay, but how do they know that? Like they asked the tortoise one day. Can you feel this? He was like. He did a mateo. He did a mateo. Full bow. Matt, you want to hold the bubba, dude? No. He's a heavy boy. But that's what we're talking.

And I know we've been looking at these animals, but like the fact that that shell is obviously there to protect him, but also he can feel that. And it's like made out of what our fingernails are like. He loves me. Or the hedgehog has those little spikes, like the the way that God designed these things. I like this guy. I'd be hanging out with him all day. Yeah, I think that's a good thing. I've seen them where they tie a balloon to him. Oh, yeah, make sure you know where they are. Because they're so quiet.

They have something called pads, and it's like trampolines that help them. It's like a recoil. Like, isn't that awesome? Nature. She's got recoil. And she literally knows not to go in water because and when they go in water, they're fur because it's so dense and they have so much of it.

SPEAKER_04 31:05

Do you want me to bring the snake back out so you would just have him on your neck this whole time?

SPEAKER_03 31:08

I mean, I'm down.

unknown 31:10

Are you okay with that one?

SPEAKER_03 31:12

As long as it doesn't come near me. If it starts, uh I'll strangle, I'll strangle the life out of that thing if it comes near me. What was your uh your verse? So my verse today. If the snake sees the Bible, it might get riled up.

SPEAKER_01 31:26

Oh boy.

SPEAKER_03 31:27

I wonder.

SPEAKER_01 31:28

Alright, so the verse that I have for today is Romans 1 20, for his invisible attributes. Bro, come on. Namely, his eternal power and divine nature have been clearly perceived ever since the creation of the world in the things that have been made, so they are without excuse. And so I just thought that that was cool. I said one of the coolest things about nature is not it's just not random chaos. It's orderly, it's purposeful. You guys aren't listening to anything. No, I am. I just it's getting can you still hear me? He's awfully close.

SPEAKER_03 32:01

Yeah, she's awfully close to your name.

SPEAKER_01 32:03

Um my question is is like, as a culture, have we lost our sense of wonder?

SPEAKER_02 32:09

I'd say yes, and I think it's due to not being outside as much and not having as much like God creation connection. You know what I mean? Like people, animals, nature, like those types of things.

SPEAKER_03 32:23

Or just even a moment like this, I mean, as as goofy and as much fun as we've been having, like like obviously, like we have dogs or you know, pets at home, but like when you see things from around the world and then you hear about, you know, well, they do this because of this, or we they do this because it like he knows where his heating pad is, and their spikes only go there, or the bearded when he sees another one, it puffs like all these things, and you're like, or you know, that that thing on your neck only needs to eat once a month. Like that's crazy. You know, you start like a massage gunnery. It's like a weighted blanket. Yeah, it's very nice and comfortable. She is, I will say, because I I as you know, I do not like snakes, but she does seem very uh like loving. Very lovely. It's like weird. She's like resting her head like a yeah, like she does that, and it's also she is wandering. Yeah, she's wandering down the couch there. And if she gets on the floor and starts to come near me, I will stop that thing. She seems so loving. Also, because if you come near me, I will make you a belt.

SPEAKER_04 33:31

She really wants to be towards me, I guess.

SPEAKER_03 33:33

She did. I was gonna say when you handed her to Devin, she almost looked back at you like a like a dog or something. Like, are we supposed to be doing this? Yeah, she just wants to go to you. Do they have like memory?

SPEAKER_04 33:44

Um, snakes, they do, especially with their smell, because they smell with their tongues. That's why they put their tongues out all the time. And so, like, say when she goes on me, she'll put her tongue on me, and then she knows it's me because she remembers me.

SPEAKER_02 33:59

Dude, imagine if we smelled with our tongues. That would be. Yeah, that sounds horrible.

SPEAKER_01 34:04

Like, did the dog poop in the house?

SPEAKER_05 34:10

It's a person who's so stupid, dude. Oh, dude.

SPEAKER_03 34:15

Stop making sudden movements. She's gonna think you're attacking her, and she's gonna bite you.

SPEAKER_01 34:20

Alright, so my other last point is, and to kind of like wrap this up, is creation was never meant to replace God. It was just meant to point us to him. I saw that online today. Oh, that's good. So I thought that was good. It's like it's never meant to replace God. Like the awe and wonder that we have for nature should just point us to worship God, not just again, think, oh, how cool is that?

SPEAKER_03 34:40

Which we do, but it's like, oh man, this is not by accident. This is a divine creation by God. How big is God? How big is God? How small are we in the grand scheme of things as well, which is really, really cool. I'm trying so hard to pay attention and be serious, but her tail just wrapped like slowly around her neck. Like as you were talking, her tail just went, it's like venom. I'm just gonna walk downstairs holding her.

SPEAKER_02 35:04

But the the first one right now, bro. She's Matthew 6. She can smell.

SPEAKER_00 35:13

Sorry, we're it's impossible to be serious like this.

SPEAKER_01 35:16

Dude, what do I do if she really said she can characterize it?

SPEAKER_00 35:19

She is full on coiled.

SPEAKER_03 35:22

She's full on coiled around her. Is she strong? It looks like she's extremely strong.

SPEAKER_04 35:29

Yeah, she has so many muscles throughout her body. Even her tail, like the thinnest part of her, can hold her whole body. Wait.

SPEAKER_01 35:35

No, that's cool, dude.

SPEAKER_03 35:36

She just walked down and be like, Hey, did you guys get the uh this morning? Did anyone lose this necklace?

SPEAKER_02 35:45

Go ahead, sorry, Matthew. Oh yeah, Matthew 6, I forget what the verse is, or yeah, what the verse is, but talking about you know, if he if he has the hairs numbered on your head and the lily, it's like how much more does he love you, right? So it's like, yeah, uh chinchilla knows not to go in water and do all this stuff, it's like, wow, I'm I'm gonna be alright. Yeah. Like God knows what I'm going through.

SPEAKER_03 36:05

Yeah, if God created if God created like preset things in animals to keep them safe, like how much more well, like he says, you know, if the you know a single sparrow falls from the sky, how much more does he care about us? So like like you're saying, if he created designed a chinchilla to know, hey, I can't go in that water because I don't know, maybe they I don't they probably can't swim, obviously if they've never been in water, but like I can't go in there because it's gonna you know ruin my life if I do. How much more you know does he give us the tools to be able uh to you know make the right decisions and not get into a place where we dude is she like sleeping on you? That's actually pretty cute. Yeah, I'm not gonna lie.

SPEAKER_00 36:45

I can't like really turn my head, but Devin's like, that's the last thing that I wanted to say to you guys.

SPEAKER_01 36:54

No, I was gonna ask you, Priscilla, like since you've started to do this, like has it like that type of thing, like doesn't make you appreciate creation a little bit differently, or now that you've gotten closer with these animals, like I don't know, like, or you see how these kids react to it like oh my goodness, this is like I don't know. I would I think I'd be like reflecting myself on like oh man, maybe I should value this a little bit more.

SPEAKER_04 37:20

Yeah, definitely. Because I, for example, I used to be so scared of snakes, like Luke, and then I started doing this, and I started just seeing how gentle they really are until they feel you know threatened.

SPEAKER_05 37:33

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 37:33

Um, and it made me just like appreciate how much just like God just equips us and he he just uses the things, he uses everything in order to protect us, and and even shows like through how this guy doesn't even have venom and he doesn't have fangs or anything like that, but he'll just launch and then wrap around and he knows to just like squeeze until like his prey rats, for example. He knows to squeeze until his heart the heart stops beating to then eat it, which is just like crazy, and then like also seeing how kids react to it too, and how much it's made me love children even more through this job and through being able to do this, it just made me like love kids and see how much they love nature, and it's just such a beautiful thing.

SPEAKER_02 38:19

Which is like we we talk about like childlike wonder, like you you read about it and write like childlike wonder. It's like going back to the basics, like like you said, sometimes we'll lose the wonder how to get it back or whatever. Yeah, but like it is really a crazy thing that Jesus came to Earth, die, like why?

SPEAKER_01 38:36

So that we could have well that's what we we were talking about beforehand, and then we've talked about it in youth before with our students, is like the wonder of salvation.

SPEAKER_03 38:46

Like that event, like what it is, like just in the sense of Jesus dying and like on a practical level, it's crazy. Like it really is, like it's it's uh it's awesome, it's it's insane. But at the same time, of like we had a God who created everything, who wanted a relationship so bad with us that he sent his son to die for us. Like at whatever point I forget that or lose that, it's like then we've missed the whole thing, obviously. But it's like that's the the wonder of that too, is like it's you I hope that we our lives reflect that of like, oh man, this is this is amazing. That God cares enough about me, loves me enough to want to send his only son to die for me so that I could have a relationship with him. Like, that's amazing. So I think that that it kind of intertwines with each other too. For sure. It's all it all brings us, everything I think everything God created is always meant to bring us back to that truth and to that point of like like you're saying, the awe of it all. And every time you put on a nature show or interact with an animal in person, or you know, even watch uh, you know, or or hear about those stupid bees last week and stuff, of like how God, you know, designed everything so intricately and so woven together that how how anybody could think, oh yeah, it just happened by accident. Like, you know, that thing just that thing was born and knew to wrap itself around something until it doesn't feel the heartbeat anymore, and then it knows, okay, now I can eat it. Like, like, yeah, that just happened by accident. Like, no, like it that's God's in the details, and that's what I intricate. And that's what it said. It was like nature shows us there's an author, it's not an accident. Like, and it was like, Oh, it's it's true. It's like, yeah, no, you could look at every little thing, fingerprints or snowflakes or whatever it is, like nature in general, like it's crazy.

SPEAKER_02 40:38

So I think of us and trees. Like we we breathe out. I mean, I can't look at you crazy because I said the most ridiculous thing at the start of this podcast ever. So no, like we breathe out carbon dioxide, they need carbon dioxide to breathe in, and then they give out oxygen and then we breathe in oxygen. So it's like a similar thing. Like, how do you not you think that just happened? No, I don't. Pre-cut oranges. What is that?

SPEAKER_01 41:05

What is that?

SPEAKER_02 41:07

I have no idea.

SPEAKER_01 41:08

Like you open an orange and it's just like sliced. Yo, what you know what I mean?

SPEAKER_02 41:13

Isn't that true? Yeah, there's an overreaction.

SPEAKER_04 41:15

Yes, like looking at you.

SPEAKER_03 41:18

She was like, that was really loud. Could you please I haven't eaten in a month? Starving right now. What does she eat? She just mice rats, yeah. Rats. Rats?

SPEAKER_04 41:29

Yeah, rats in here.

SPEAKER_03 41:30

Like, yeah, like let's let a rat loose and watch her hunt. Can we do that? Or you still got those at your house? Oh, yeah. She needs a full entree. I'm losing her again. I don't know. Yeah. I mean, her tail's wrapped around your neck, so she's not she's not.

SPEAKER_01 41:46

Yeah, but where's her head? Am I about to sit on it?

SPEAKER_05 41:48

No, you're good.

SPEAKER_03 41:50

Whoa, don't Priscilla just punched her. Now she's really aggravated. Now she's really mad.

SPEAKER_02 41:56

She's back.

SPEAKER_04 41:58

And the fact that they like shed their skin too, and they don't have hands or anything like that to take their skin off, so they know to rub themselves on like rocks and stuff to get it off. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 42:10

She's gone.

SPEAKER_01 42:10

She's gone to Luke.

unknown 42:11

Luke.

SPEAKER_01 42:12

Come on, Luke. Come here, Luke.

SPEAKER_03 42:15

Yeah, she's wrapped, she's gonna choke your arm out right now. She's trying to stay on. She should be safe.

SPEAKER_04 42:21

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 42:22

Look at that. Like you're a tree branch.

SPEAKER_04 42:25

That's literally what they do in the wild.

SPEAKER_02 42:28

And the camouflage of it all, like how like they're specifically colors so that they can blend into their surroundings. Like that's crazy.

SPEAKER_03 42:34

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 42:35

She's thick in the middle, huh?

SPEAKER_01 42:37

Dude, she's so strong.

SPEAKER_03 42:38

Yeah, she's super strong. Imagine what, like a 20. That's done. No. Like you're not getting out of that.

SPEAKER_04 42:46

No. They literally eat like alligators. What? Or like humans. Oh yeah. Yeah. Have you not seen them?

SPEAKER_03 42:53

They'll eat a whole like they'll eat a whole deer in one like one choke it out. One fell swoop.

SPEAKER_04 43:00

But what they'll do first is they'll stretch their whole body out next to the prey to see if they can fit their prey into the house.

SPEAKER_03 43:08

Have you never seen the movie Anaconda? Like, what are we talking about?

SPEAKER_04 43:11

SPEAKER_03 43:58

She puts the animals on the blanket. It's it's it's awesome. It's awesome.

SPEAKER_04 45:35

SPEAKER_01 45:37

As the parents will like it, probably even just as much, if not more, than the kids. 1000%.

SPEAKER_03 45:43

Dude, it's it's so much fun. Like Devin. We love it. I did we did it for Sai's second birthday, it was the greatest thing we've ever done. Yeah, we've done it for one of Brody's birthdays. We did it during COVID. We did it for one of Brody's birthdays. And we go every year when it's at the preschool, we watch the chinchilla jump off people's face. And there's more animals too, right? Or is do you only have to be?

SPEAKER_04 46:01

Um well the only one that we're missing is the dove that does a high five. And then we're missing the fat-tailed leopard gecko.

SPEAKER_02 46:09

That's crazy. I still don't know how that what's going on.

SPEAKER_04 46:13

It lifts and then you just bop. Like, I thought there was a guinea pig. Oh, and a guinea pig, yeah.

SPEAKER_05 46:28

No, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 46:30

Which one would win in the room? It'll literally drop his tail. This one. What did which one would win in a fight out of all these animals? Like we let them all loose right now and just let them find out. I don't know, that bunny's pretty big, but this human I would win.

SPEAKER_00 46:49

Just Devin scrapping on the floor with the animals and using the door to kill the animals.

SPEAKER_03 46:54

You against ten of those, who's winning? Oh, these guys. 100%. You against a ten footer. A ten footer. Just a single ten-footer.

SPEAKER_03 47:49

There's a mouse in my office and trying to catch it, he directs it into our office. But Devin just kicked it with his steel-toe boots. How fast do they travel? Well, because they're they travel, they're more in water, no? They hunt like traveling in water. Oh yeah. Pythons or anacondas. Oh, I'm thinking of anacondas. Yeah. Slow. One mile per hour. Hey.
