Somebody clipped Fetterman's word salad (aminal?). These drugs have been brought to you by the letter "C". We've gone from Sleepy Joe to Dozing Don. Triumph hasn't lost his touch as he roasts Stavvy baby. Dr. Bob gives some video game recommendations, Plague Inc. and Robocop Rogue City. (RFKism Tism).The Docs share a supposed pro Israel post( we prefer the Hannukah Song). Dr. Bob is a coffee snob. Gad Saad has some serious Hood Spa. Joe Rogan doesn't punch back like he used to. Big alien reveal being rolled out, to unite us all or just kill religion? We remember when mangoes and avocados were free(in South Florida). The Docs react to a creepy optical illusion. A.I. diplomas at UCLA, we are so cooked as a society. Dr.Bob's niece has a dog which may be the Prima Donna of Destruction(Lucy). Apparently, Dr.Bob made a mistake as Lucy was alone in the house at the time of the crime.

SPEAKER_10

All right, here we are with a special remote-only episode of the Slack Doctors. I am Dr. Chip. I am Dr. Bob.

SPEAKER_09

I'm producer Dean. Mean Dean.

SPEAKER_10

I was going to say, go ahead and chime in today. As you can see, everybody, there's nobody in the Growth Professor Studio, so you could be in there recording your podcast right now. Um and and because nobody's there. Well, a producer would be there if you were recording a podcast, but obviously. So first of all, did you ever did you ever post any pictures of your knee, uh, Dean?

SPEAKER_09

Um I think um one may have flashed up on our last episode.

SPEAKER_10

Okay, yeah, I was gonna say, because that's one of the reasons we're I mean, one of the the only reason you're not in the studio, I would guess. Otherwise, you might have might have done this from the studio. But I was definitely, it's it's it's a Wednesday and it was an off day, and I've been meaning to try this from home since I have this lovely setting. So, you know, we're we're all doing it from home. Yeah, yeah. Quasi mayors.

SPEAKER_11

That's not a green screen. That is really basically paradise right there behind Dr. Chip.

SPEAKER_10

I'm literally I'm really kind of upset that my stupid microphone holder won't fit this stupid thing. I gotta sit here and hold it, but whatever. It is what it is. I look like I'm a rock singer, I guess, or whatever. There you go. So any yeah, right. So anyway, um one of the things we were doing in the last episode at the end, we were watching that Bill Mayer thing, which I watched the rest of it, and the rest of it was rather unremarkable. It wasn't even really worth watching. The rest of it was it was kind of silly. But somebody did indeed clip out the part that I was talking about with Fetterman. So I want to play that right now.

SPEAKER_11

That's funny, that's one of the ones I had pulled up too.

SPEAKER_10

Oh, I'm sure. Yeah, that's definitely which one is it?

SPEAKER_02

I think they got the stupid uh stupid mouse I have for this laptop is cold and doesn't work very good.

SPEAKER_11

This isn't it. Where's the other one? It's the Julian Andrioni on X. That's the Oh there, there we go. I got it. Yeah, I don't know how it got to the top board, but all right, here we go.

SPEAKER_10

Take a gander at this. A bad yeah, that that doesn't seem Yeah.

SPEAKER_08

I I just I just think uh I mean, as I'm a member of the agriculture uh committee and I really stand with with our farmers now. And now of course we don't want like the factory farm situation, uh absolutely opposed to uh aminal cruity. But for me, it's probably amino amino? You heard him kinds of uh the kind of uh what's what's the lab meat would be a great uh opportunity, but for me right now, like it's uh but you want to ban it? I mean all right.

SPEAKER_10

This is where I this is where I start the type the timer. All right. I'm gonna I swear it was 18 seconds, but we'll see exactly how long it takes him to say I want to ban it because it's highly processed. Here we go. Shouldn't people have the right to eat it?

SPEAKER_08

It it's like effectively. I mean, if if com uh the people have a chance to to prevent that, but but oh but overall for me, uh I I think 10 seconds. Someone that's really I mean, we are just uh I thought you know the really highly, highly processed food.

SPEAKER_10

I mean, that's 18 seconds. It took him 18 seconds to say it's highly processed food.

SPEAKER_11

I mean there's no dressing you can put on that word salad that makes it any better.

SPEAKER_10

That is just I mean this guy is a this guy is a sitting senator. You know, I talk about having tests for voting. I mean, come on, guys.

SPEAKER_11

This is that's just it's funny that we both had that that clip pulled up because some of the other clips that I have pulled up, I guess, is gonna be sort of an unintended theme for this episode, but it's other clips of uh something somebody doing something where they're they're not maybe they're not fit to be in office as well, and maybe they should be tested. Uh not Fetterman, but we'll get to those clips when we get there.

SPEAKER_10

You go ahead and run one of yours. That's I just wanted to clear the air with the Bill Merritt show that we're that we almost you know didn't end up with at the end.

SPEAKER_11

So go ahead and take it away with whatever clips you want. All right, let's see. I think I think I have two of them that are that pertain to this. And we've got to get with that.

SPEAKER_10

I know I left a a voicemail or two, too.

SPEAKER_00

So see, meaning drugs coming in by water, by the ocean, by the sea. A lot of people don't know what I mean by sea.

SPEAKER_11

What? What? A lot of people don't know what I mean by sea. There is nobody I can possibly think that the other sea. What are you talking about? You mean boats come you mean drugs coming in visually, drugs coming in that you can see.

SPEAKER_00

They think I'm talking about vision. I'm not I'm talking about sea, like the sea. These gains have been the result of a right, Paul. Wow.

SPEAKER_11

Uh that one just blew my mind that yeah, anybody could think that that's what other people were, you know. This is yeah, not this is what I meant. He probably loves that joke about what's a pirate's favorite letter. You know, most people immediately go, R. And the answer, of course, is no, the C.

SPEAKER_09

These are our leaders. You know what I'm loving about the show so far? We've already got two clips. We've already got two clips.

SPEAKER_11

Outstanding. All right. So here's the other one, and it's it's starring the same. But uh, yeah, let's just check this out for 17 seconds.

SPEAKER_07

They're needle movement collaborative hospitals. We have reduced internal mortality by 41.5%.

SPEAKER_11

Pop pop is out. He's sound asleep.

SPEAKER_06

Which is truly incredible, and this is compared with the 5.9% decline in benchmark hospitals over the same period of four points.

SPEAKER_11

So the irony of having given your most recent rival the nickname of Sleepy Joe, yeah, to then to be this, we're clearly asleep.

SPEAKER_10

I know how he does this. And you know how everybody says he's he's a man he's amazing, how he goes tirelessly with no sleep and this, that, and the other thing. It's called narcolepsy. I have it. I got the same thing. I can't sleep more than four or five hours at a time. I'm always up doing weird shit. But sure enough, you know, I could I could pull that off. I could take a little mini power nap while in the middle of almost a human fainting goat.

SPEAKER_11

Oh, God, yeah. Yeah, it's pretty amazing. Those of dogs with narcolepsy, too. It's uh it's sad, actually. Really? It's not really nearly as cute as you would think it would be.

SPEAKER_10

Oh, so what is it? Just look like they're fainting and then they're just falling asleep? Yeah, they just nod over and fall over. Is that what's wrong with the fainting goats, too, maybe?

SPEAKER_11

No, that's a different thing. That's a that's a recessive gene that has something to do with uh when the fight or flight, when there that adrenaline kicks in, it just paralyzes their body. Yeah, that's a different thing.

SPEAKER_10

So are they related to are they related to a possum or something like that? Because that's what possums do, right?

SPEAKER_11

When they get into totally different possums do that, uh evolve to do that. This is a something that look, if these goats weren't being kept by humans, this would not be a trait that would make it.

SPEAKER_03

Dr.

SPEAKER_11

Bob's first reaction as a delicious piece of prey animal is to just fall down to the side. At least possums make an attempt to look themselves dead and filthy and disgusting. You know, no, a fainting goat just lays over in a very delicious manner uh to most predators.

SPEAKER_09

Dr. Bob, you have a bevy of interesting information. I mean useless. I don't know what I don't know where you get it or how you collected it, but it's correct.

SPEAKER_11

And it's funny, sometimes people will ask me, where did you learn that? Listen, man. If I had to keep a running bibliography in my head of everywhere that I I gathered up this information, I'd have no room for the information itself. Right. Right.

SPEAKER_10

Well, here, I'm gonna I'm gonna share a clip from one of uh let's uh let's share a doctor about the right, right? Here's here's one for your boy here. This is a good one.

SPEAKER_11

Yep, I had this one a clip too.

SPEAKER_05

Am I right? That's actually not right. I'm kidding. I kid, I kid you like you're a hit. You know, you have this magnetic personal personality, and not just because your body has its own gravitational pull. Okay, you became famous on Comtown, am I right?

SPEAKER_04

That's right, that's right.

SPEAKER_05

And I'm not referring to your beard. I suppose some people have called the dirt bag. Coincidentally, that's also what everyone says when you leave a room. The dirt bag left. People love you because even though you're still anti-woke, you lean heavily to the left. But then sometimes you also lean to the right. The point is, you need to lean on something in order to stand up for more than a couple of minutes. But I really uh had a great time, and this is getting old. For me to boom! Oh no!

SPEAKER_04

Because it's not good after all.

SPEAKER_10

You guys, did you guys hear the dog bark on cue? No. No, that's funny.

SPEAKER_11

That little stupid dog barked right when he was to poop on, but man, when he channels that Triumph's voice, it's just like the old days. He sounds exactly the same.

SPEAKER_10

That's Smeiggle. I knew he looked familiar. I I never made that connection. No shit.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, yeah. No, it's Schmeigel, his you know, his other personality, of course, being Triumph, the insult comic dog.

SPEAKER_10

Right, right. Did you see the clips from him from the correspondence dinner? Uh no. Oh my god, you're gonna look those.

SPEAKER_11

You mean the one that was being obviously not the one there, but the one that was being done at the same time?

SPEAKER_10

Yeah, no, no, yeah. He was there at the red carpet, right where the guy ran by later, but he was there when they were walking in, like roasting them all. Like uh he was roasting like Rubio and JFK, uh, or RFK Jr. rather, and um uh Head eggs, Kegspreth. He was roasting them all. It was great. You got to look it up, it's hilarious.

SPEAKER_11

So I just want to so the RFK, this is just such an off-tangent thing, but there I've been playing this video game that I got real cheap off of Steam. It's called Plague Incorporated, and it came out you know many years ago. It was only like three dollars. And the whole point of the game is to create a disease and infect the world. It's it's very evil and you know, the antisocial kind of game. You get different categories of disease, and uh you start with bacteria and then virus or whatever. So I finally graduated to the neural worm, the one that's like a brain worm. So you have to name your disease. Of course, I named it RFK Ism with RFK Ism Tism. I just wanted to get that out. I also but you know, shout out to the gamers out there, man. Steam is running some crazy uh specials and deals. I just got the Robocop Rogue City game, and I have been spending way too many hours staying up late at night playing that damn thing. They nailed the whole power fantasy of being RoboCop. This thing Scott Peter Weller does the acting. He came back and did the face modeling and the voice acting, so it sounds exactly like the 1987 guy, Robocop. I mean, it can't be just but another version of GTA, right? No, it's come it's nothing like GTA. It's all it's it's a it's in fact, it's for a first-person shooter, it's completely unlike everything else that's out right now. Everything is running really fast, jumping, quick scoping, shit like that. This is like the movie. You're like a tank. You can take most damage, and you know, you don't have to duck and cover, you're just this walking behemoth of destruction, grabbing guys by the neck and chucking them out windows and off of rooftops. And yeah, it's it's great. Nice. But the whole green, you know, like the accuracy or aiming system from the movie is perfect in the game. Robocop Rogue City, I strongly recommend. Dr. Bob recommends. I'm getting some weather moving in here. Starting to rain. Yeah, there's you got the dog potential there, and uh, if I do remember correctly, there's some train tracks behind you, not too far off. True. True that. So we might get blessed with the uh the tri-rail or maybe even the bright line.

SPEAKER_09

It's like it's like visiting it's like visiting Universal Studios.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah.

SPEAKER_10

Got the tram coming through. Right. The Brightline only takes a second at least. It's like five hours. I wanna look at 80 miles an hour. I wanted to look at this post because it's supposed to put be pro-Jewish, but I don't know. You tell me what you think of this post. It doesn't seem like this is really the great, greatest endorsement to be proud about. Are you reading it? Google, oh yeah, OpenAI. I saw that too. There's a lot of things on that list that I wouldn't want to boast for it. Yeah, Palantir, NBA fixed, Dell Blaze, Goldman Sachs, Oracle, Black Rock, Home Depot, where the immigrants hang out, Estee Lauder. She went to uh Epstein's Island, Starbucks is a five dollar, you know. I don't I don't think these are the people you want to be parading around going, look how great we are. I don't I don't know about you. I mean, I mean look at these crazy mothers.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, no, I would stick with the uh I would stick with Adam Sandler's Hanukkah song if you want to engender relations. That's a much better way to do it. That's hilarious.

SPEAKER_10

I don't know the guy's name. Uh one of the guy's names is Ryan Long, I think. And he's a comedian, and his partner, who I don't know his name, but they always they're like a duo a lot of the time. He did a version of he did an impression of Sandler doing that song, but he changed the words. I almost brought it, I almost brought it up to bring on the show, but I was like, ooh, that was that even I was like, that was pretty tough. It was pretty rough on the Jews. My new Jew finger said, you better not, man. I don't know. That's a little Jesus Christ. Wind is whipping up and shit here. What the hell's going on? My shit's getting wet.

SPEAKER_11

It's not even hurricane season. No, I'm telling you. That means it's legally not allowed to happen. I mean, it's looked like it kind of. What you drinking there, isn't it?

SPEAKER_02

Oh, coffee.

SPEAKER_10

It's regular old things. Which is funny, I went to buy some coffee and I usually get the big plastic tub of Dunkin' Donuts, original brew, whatever. So they didn't have that. So I was like, I wasn't how per se. So I just grabbed a bag of what I thought was, you know, ground up regular, original blend coffee. And I get it here and open it up and it's beans, and I'm like, ah shit. So I I go to my neighbors, I'm like, You guys got a coffee grinder? And they're like, Yeah, and I'm like, oh let me borrow it real quick. Well, I guess I kind of ground it really quick and not not really that fine. Because now I have you know, you know, have like you yeah, you know, have you smooth and chunky peanut butter? I have chunky coffee.

SPEAKER_11

Well, the whole bean seems to work fine that way. I'll go on Amazon after the show and send you a grinder of your own.

SPEAKER_10

Oh no, I don't uh I mean, dude, I put too much stuff in the coffee to be that much of a snob like you.

SPEAKER_11

It if you start off, it's still better in the end. If you start off with a good, you know, it doesn't matter what you add to it.

unknown

Right?

SPEAKER_11

I had to go buy coffee this morning because I uh I bought I ordered some on Amazon, a flavor I really like that I can never find anywhere. It's Black Rifle Coffee Company, and the flavor is called salt. Yeah, yeah, that's supposed to be really good. Caramel, it's really, really good. So it was supposed to come today, but then I realized it was never gonna come, you know, until way late in the day. So I went to Walmart, bought a different brand or a different version of Black Rifle, a dark chocolate one. Got home, and as soon as I got home, I get an email from Amazon saying your package has been delayed. Now it's not coming until Friday. So I'm really glad I went and got coffee today. Oh, yeah, no shit. Good thing.

SPEAKER_10

All right, so I know I left at least one, maybe two voicemails, so we probably should get those out of the way. Yeah, you left two. Uh let's let's bring those up.

SPEAKER_11

Do the last one first.

SPEAKER_10

Do the the second one first. All right, here we go.

SPEAKER_12

You know, I wish I had uh let's just call it the hoot to sit there and make an argument. Well, thought out and then have Joe Ruff and go.

SPEAKER_00

Well, what about just this?

SPEAKER_10

Well, you're right. Well, you're gonna just turn around and go, okay, yeah, you're right. And then start all over a different circuit route to make the same stupid fucking point that Joe Rogan just told you is is not uh this guy. We'll talk about gad on the show today, I am sure. This guy is insane.

SPEAKER_11

All right, before we even get into the actual call itself, I don't I'm sure that our viewers can see that uh it it my Google Voice doesn't attempt to transcribe it. It really doesn't help to read this, considering you said HUDSPA and it says hood spa. And I was trying to, but I read it because I didn't listen to it at first. I just read the transcript and I was trying to figure out what in the fuck you were talking about. What's Greek?

SPEAKER_10

It doesn't know it doesn't know Yiddish, it's the Nazi. Exactly.

SPEAKER_11

But yeah, I'm imagining some kind of sauna with blunts. Like I I couldn't figure it out.

SPEAKER_10

Oh God. Well, this is hilarious because I I mean I've forgotten about it. I I'd I'd watched it this morning and then completely forgot about it until I remember till I I heard that message. And I watched the Joe Rogan and and Gad Sad. And what and he all right, first of all, it was 30 minutes before Joe Rogan even pushed back like a little bit on anything of any of any sort. Let this guy rant and rave forever. And the guy keeps saying, you know, oh well, I know a lot of Muslims, a lot of Muslims are great, they're peaceful people, they really a lot of them, but we've got to kill them all. He keeps saying we've just gotta, none of them will ever be, you know, uh their their religion teaches them they've gotta kill us, so we've gotta kill them all. So it's just like, what the fuck? All right, so he makes this point over and over and over again. Finally, two hours in, Joe Rogan goes, hey, but you know what? You know, BB funds some moss, right? Two fucking hours of sitting there listening to this guy fucking and and dude, this guy, very eloquent, everything is an analogy or a story. You ask him a question, he starts with what he had for breakfast. Well, let me let me tell you about the Middle East. This morning I got up and I had eggs. You know what, you know what, you know something about those eggs? They were from the Middle East, you know, and it's all it's it's they never answer a fucking question. This guy, I mean, for two and a fucking two and a half hours, just and then Joe Rogan is just barely pushed. Joe Rogan says that that Iran has missiles that can reach Europe. We all know that's not true. That's that's not the case. He bought that false flag thing where Israel shot a missile somewhere, and everybody's like, oh my god, look how far Iran shot the missile, and then a week later they're like, oh no, that was it was Israel, it wasn't Iran.

SPEAKER_11

You don't think they can hit the tip of Eastern Europe, like Belarus or something, maybe?

SPEAKER_10

Maybe. Even though, even if they can't, I don't care. But the point is, he's they're doing all of this, both of them. All kinds of debunked bullshit. All right, look, here's a perfect example. Joe Rogan brings up the point. Well, geez, don't you think the hundred thousand people in Palestine that you guys killed with might have affected this opinion that you're so upset about? And he goes, Well, it's all about perspective. You know that 600,000 Syrians died in their civil war. Okay. Well, you know that only 1,200 people died on October 7th. So what the fuck are you talking about? It's like it's it's just such insane whataboutism, straw man, this that disinformation. I I mean, it's just it's insane. And this guy, either this guy I I don't think this guy, Gad Sad, is stupid enough to believe the stuff he says. Clearly, there's an agenda. Clearly he's he's and he's this guy, he th he says he's from Syria, but he's a Jew. And he just he makes so many stupid points about you know, the fact that Supposedly you can't go to you know, you can't Hamas will kill you if you're gay. Not necessarily. I mean uh you'll get killed here if you're gay, if if you're not careful. I mean, it it's crazy. The whole thing was just so hypocritical and disinformation-y, and I just had to scream at the frickin' at the T at the screen the whole time, going like, what the fuck are you talking about?

SPEAKER_09

Anyway. No. I don't know how you put up with it.

SPEAKER_10

It's crazy. It's Joe Rogan is clearly I mean, look, I get it. He wants to he wants to stay in the middle of the road. He's trying to be Mr. I don't I'm not taking a stand. And you know, it's only gonna work so long, dude. I mean, he kinda he he brought out the right points eventually. Two hours in, you know, he finally started pushing back where he should have been. And you know, like if Dave Smith had been sitting at this table, this guy would have been shut down in five minutes. So uh it's just so different, anyway. Play we'll get off this subject. Play my uh play my other uh message. All right, yeah.

SPEAKER_11

One more voicemail.

SPEAKER_12

Uh of course they're not deal. But uh government's gonna send it. Let's talk about it again. Let's do some math. Uh, right here I'm looking at Google says the nearest solar system to Earth is alpha century, 4.37 light years away. Let's do some math on the show.

SPEAKER_11

It is I'm I'm not surprised that the the government is like, well, we're gonna release some alien files. It's like they've they've they've literally thrown every distraction they could possibly imagine to try to get off this you know, the beginning of all of this, which was the Epstein files and still basically is. But before we get before we get too far aliens, Hontavirus.

SPEAKER_10

Before we get too far into this alien uh uh topic, have you taken a peek at that movie I sent you?

SPEAKER_11

Uh no, I have not.

SPEAKER_10

It would be a good time to watch it after we get done. Watch that stupid movie. It is completely stupid, but watch the ending of it. It's almost as if the whole fucking thing is just to kind of push whatever that whatever there mean at the ending, which I it's not even stated clearly what the ending means at all. I'm telling you, we gotta MST that movie. It is we'll do it on like uh extra speed because it'll be easy on extra speed too, because the dialogue is so simplistic and idiotic. They can spit it out as fast as you can, and you're still gonna be like, oh, that was stupid. I'm telling you, man. But anyway, we've been they've been telling us, I mean, they've been grooming this alien shit for as long as there's been intelligence. This has always been like the the last of the last of the last ditch efforts. Like, look, they're really starting to catch on. We're gonna have to come up with something. And this is it. It's aliens, it's a bunch of bullshit. Uh so all right, let's do the math. Now, I don't know if there's anything habitable in Alpha Centuri. I don't believe there is. But let's say there is. That's the closest one there is. Four, let's just round it up to five light years away.

SPEAKER_11

That means for conservative purposes, round it down to four. The numbers are still gonna be outrageous.

SPEAKER_10

Absolutely. So that means traveling at the speed of light, it takes four years to get there. Now, we can't come close to traveling the speed of light, and if somebody can, that's still four-year commitment just to get from there to here. Now, four years doesn't seem that bad, like if it was somebody like us to go discover something, but if they come here all the time, that's a hell of a frickin' cruise.

SPEAKER_11

But who knows? Four years in cryo could mean nothing to it to a different species or to a different rate, is you know, to a different life form. What if they have FTL? What if they go faster than the speed of light? That's what I was just about to say. I mean, who knows? Maybe they can go faster than the speed of light. What if they're not traveling through space, but what if it's interdimensional shit that they're talking about and they're just phasing in and out?

SPEAKER_10

Well, that's a whole nother thing. And this is the whole thing I was gonna say. A lot of people are saying that they're gonna come out and say aliens are real and they created us thereby getting rid of God. I'm not against that at all. Get rid of all the stupid gods.

SPEAKER_11

I always thought the whole unveiling of alien theory would be a way to use to try to get like a one-world government thing, like to get everybody on the same page. Sure. And stop thinking of ourselves as nationalities, but just as earthlings, you know, a united, nothing, you know, unites people like an enemy. Right.

SPEAKER_10

But then the you know, here's here's the only flaw in that whole plan. All right, so let's say aliens come forward and they in fact did create us from monkeys or whatever the hell they did to create us. Who created them?

SPEAKER_11

I mean, there's still the existence of aliens in no way destroys the possibility of there being a higher being or a god. It just changes the details.

SPEAKER_10

Yeah, that's right, but it destroys the the differences between Muslim and Christian and Judaism and Hinduism and all that shit. That's all out the window, right?

SPEAKER_11

Yes. Yes. I would I would think so.

SPEAKER_10

That's what I think they might be trying to do.

SPEAKER_12

Which I'm not sure.

SPEAKER_11

I'm almost on on the same page as that. If it helps solve some global stress, stressful situations that all stem from religion.

SPEAKER_10

So so does that mean we become the new religious that don't really believe what they're saying but pretend we do?

SPEAKER_11

Well, or that just means that the guys that worship the flying spaghetti monster were right all along because maybe that's what the alien looks like. Oh God. And you know, that's the other thing is that's a good thing. Wait, I believe what was it, uh porno for pyros that the song Pets Will Make Great Pets. I'm down.

SPEAKER_10

Big great pets. Yeah, big pet. Right? And you know, they've gotten this whole Middle Eastern thing so intertwined with religion and and and you know, and and when you when you get people down to the facts of October 7th and Israel versus Palestine, and who cares? Who gives a shit if you're not religious? But they always go back to, oh, well, our religion says this, and their religious, and those of us that don't count don't care about your religion are like, well, who cares? Uh we don't care. It doesn't mean anything to us. But we're such a minority, there's so many people that as long as it's such a dog whistle of Christian or Muslim or Jew or whatever.

SPEAKER_11

But as we just learned the other day, we could be the minority majority, or we could be the majority minority, or we could be half of the minority that's within the majority, or the mibi to mibi injects. Yeah, I don't know. We won't know until somebody, an expert, tells us.

SPEAKER_10

We got plenty of time. All right, there's a lot of them out there. Can you can you make out the fountain back there? That's it for voicemail.

SPEAKER_11

Pardon?

SPEAKER_10

Can you make out the fountain back there?

SPEAKER_11

Uh no, not really. I mean finger it, right? See something that could be a fountain now that you've said the word fountain. Yeah.

SPEAKER_10

I don't know. I might have to take the pick this thing up and take a walking tour of the pool area just to get people a I'm telling you, it's it's it's insanely gorgeous here. I had a different thing. I know they butchered that mango tree, but has it made a recovery? Is it gonna have fruit this year? Dude, I almost was gonna set up over there if it wasn't looking like it was rain. I was gonna be right under the mango tree and show you that I was risking my life. It's got ginormous mangoes hanging off it right now. I mean, they haven't started falling.

SPEAKER_11

I'm gonna get some in July when I come down.

SPEAKER_10

Yeah, they haven't started falling yet, but they're definitely a shit ton of them on there.

SPEAKER_11

They're looking like them off that tree. They're not they're not the turpentine mangoes. Those are those are legit.

SPEAKER_10

Yeah, I remember the one time they did you see it when they cut it back all the way? Yes.

SPEAKER_11

I was horrified. I thought they killed it.

SPEAKER_10

I did too. I was like, they're they cut every bit of green off this tree. I mean, there's nothing but sticks. I was like, how's this thing gonna live?

SPEAKER_11

Dude, if that thing was not inside the fence, that would be stripped clean of mangoes, I assure you. If that thing was had people on the sidewalk had access to that bad boy. Well, you gotta have a picker, though.

SPEAKER_10

I mean, you can't really get up there without trust me. They know I'm sure you probably dealt with the guy on uh on Saranac that used to come and get the mangoes, right?

SPEAKER_11

Yep, yep, yep. If you have mangoes or avocados in your yard, you and you want them, you you have to like protect them.

SPEAKER_10

Yeah. Or just give them away and say, yeah, yeah, come get them.

SPEAKER_11

If you want them, if you want to keep them, then you need them.

SPEAKER_10

I just ended up mowing them up anyway, so yeah, come get them off the tree so I don't have to mow them.

SPEAKER_11

I remember as a kid, a Florida avocado, like we never bought them in the store. You just got them, they were freely available. And uh I hadn't I didn't see one of those wrinkly California Haas avocados until I started working in restaurants and like in my teens. As a kid, I thought they were all the big smooth green ones. I and I prefer the Florida ones. They're better, I think.

SPEAKER_10

Well, of those two avocado trees that were on that that property, one of them the avocados were all right. The other one were they weren't good. I don't know if it's the wrong, wrong species or something, but we tried one of the other ones, and that that tree was the but the one with the good ones even eventually just died. I don't know what happened to it, just eventually died.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, avocado is an interesting plant that if it wasn't for humans, that they wouldn't exist. Um, they're from South America, and all of the animals, if you think about the size of an avocado pit, right? All of the animals that were big enough to eat an avocado and actually pass that pit without dying, they all died off. It was like giant sloths and whatnot. So had it not been for Indians, Native Americans down there, the Incans or whoever it was, I'm not sure on the region, but they liked avocados and so they they perpetuate you know, they cultivated them. Otherwise, they'd be gone by now.

SPEAKER_10

Well, I don't I don't think the monkeys and the sloths eat the pits. I think they just eat all the fruit and toss the pit somewhere.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, but then the pits wouldn't make it very far away from the tree. They would just be consumed right there and not that far away.

SPEAKER_10

Well, I mean, acorns only go so far, and when then then squirrels pick them up, I guess. But yeah, I don't know. Squirrels take them. Who knows? Maybe something forget them and yeah. Right. Maybe somebody something on the floor picks them up and moves them like ants or something to get the rest of the uh who knows? Who knows how the ecosystem works out there? It's the jungle. Kind of like this. Speaking of which I haven't I haven't seen any of it. There used to be a big daddy iguana. Uh I don't know. One day I was out here in the pool and this thing was huge. I mean, uh it had to be two foot off the ground from from the ground to the top of its crest. It was huge. It was gnarly huge.

SPEAKER_11

But you know, saw me and to pull off. Uh I went outside last night to uh grab a gallon of water I'd forgotten left in the trunk of the car, and it's probably like 10 o'clock at night. And I heard, I couldn't see it of course, but I heard one of the had to be one of the biggest owls in this uh in this county, just a monstrously low hoo, you know. And then some weird dinosaur-like sounds coming out of the tree. It was kind of creepy. Right, the birds and and also it rained a lot in the last couple of days, so there's like a little I call it duck alley, but there's like a little creek that runs alongside the building, and when it rains for more than two days, it it literally fills up with water. The amount of fucking frogs that have immediately decided to start mating is insane. Oh my god.

SPEAKER_10

Well, speaking of creepy, did you check this? Uh I think it's this one. Yeah, this one. Did you check this video out that I say?

SPEAKER_11

Oh, yeah, the one with the eyes. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Keep your eyes focused on that cross in the middle, and something really weird will start to happen. And for me, it starts to happen about here. The faces will start to distort and turn monstrous, they'll have huge, weird eyes or giant mouths, or they'll have that shape of like the alien grays where the heads come down to a point at the bottom with the normous foreheads.

SPEAKER_10

Now, if you're doing it, you're you see that he's right. Now, I'm just looking at one of the faces, and it's that it's not changing, but if you do look in the middle, it what he's telling, talking about does happen. And it starts happening before he tells you it's gonna happen. So it's not like it's suggest a lot of it.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, no, it's an it's an optical illusion, but it's it's easy to understand. You're not really focusing on either of the face, your your brain is attempting to make a face out of what visual input you're giving it, and you're right essentially denying it the details that it needs, and so it kind of mashes everything together, and the uncanny valley is crossed, and that bada bing, bada boom, there you go. He kind of explains it here.

SPEAKER_01

And some of you already think that it is a trick and have already rewound the video to make sure that we are not showing you distorted versions of the faces, but if you change your attention over to just the photos, they're totally normal. This was discovered by Tangan Cognition Labs. They found that it also works without famous faces, it doesn't depend on the brain trying to match up a face that you know. And again, if you just focus on the X with these totally random people, you will get the same effect. Weirdly enough, somebody else did an experiment where they tried it with the faces upside down, the same thing. So we're actually not totally sure what the brain is doing here. But I personally think about party games like Bloody Mary. If you've never heard of it, it's where people go into a dark bathroom and look into their mirror and it's a ghastly face. And I think it's just your brain seeing your own reflection, but not being able to see it all the way, so it makes it weird. Also, think about the strange things people see during sleep paralysis. It's like when your brain is trying to process a face, but without all of your faculties devoted to it, you start to get something bizarre.

SPEAKER_02

This is gonna be the freakiest thing you what do people see in in sleep paralysis? I've never heard that.

SPEAKER_10

I mean, I've heard they've been like they can't move, but I haven't heard they like have you know visions or anything like that. That's interesting.

SPEAKER_11

Vision alien abductions and probing and yeah, all kinds of horribleness, all kinds of mean, nasty things.

SPEAKER_10

I expected him at the near the end of it to you know explain why watching the dot in the middle expose them as demons or something like that. Something like Constantine or something, you know. It was really kind of uh kind of.

SPEAKER_11

Like where they live. You gotta put on the sunglasses if you want to see the truth, son. Right, right.

SPEAKER_10

Are you gonna give us a tour, Chip? Uh hold on, I got one more clip I wanted to show you, and this is pretty funny because I think this I don't think this is actually true, but I think it's feasible that somebody could do this. But apparently this guy graduated from college strictly by using AI.

SPEAKER_11

And then boasting about I guess he's showing the chat GPT or whatever he is there. He's showing his work. We are so fucking cooked.

SPEAKER_10

I think the community note says they took the degree back or something like that that he got. I'm the jumbotron.

SPEAKER_13

Oh, don't forget, kids. Stay off drugs and go to school.

SPEAKER_11

Just remember to keep your devices charged. Right. Your subscription paid up, and you'll be fine. Yeah. Oh man. It's a different world. Right? All you really now, you just really need to be good at writing prompts. That's all.

SPEAKER_04

Right.

SPEAKER_11

That's the new skill set.

SPEAKER_10

I don't know. Do I do I want to try to walk around with this thing? It's still kind of raining. I'm gonna have to wait till next time for the for the tour. It looks so nice. You get the idea. Let's drop what's that? It looks so nice. Can't tell it's raining. Yeah. Yeah, right. Well, it's just still just still barely sprinkled, anyway. I can see blue sky now. Just a little silk sprinkle a little bit here. Yeah, this one's the little dog's name. Pumpkin.

SPEAKER_11

Pumpkin. Pumpkin. Pumpkin is a little bit. Sorry, which with an N.

SPEAKER_10

Pumpkin.

SPEAKER_11

Pumpkin. Okay. Well, he's he's done a good job of sparing us of his yippiness today, I must say.

SPEAKER_10

Well, the thing is, if he starts sparking, all I gotta do is go over there, pet him for a minute, and then come back out here and he stops. It's just when he sees me come out of the house, when he hears me come out of the house or sees me walking around the pool, he's gotta bark and say, come say hi. And then once I come say hi, it's fine.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, he goes crazy when he hears my voice.

SPEAKER_10

No, he goes crazy when he hears the door. Totally new. And then you just standing out there talking. He's like, Who's that? Who's there? That's why I even have to tell Rum, I'm like, look, man, just go out front by the cars if you're gonna smoke a cigarette, talk on the phone. Otherwise, that dog's never gonna shut up. Yeah, it's crazy. Yeah, I'm gonna be uh dog sitting him again over uh Memorial Day weekend, I guess. I don't know. I could I could maybe bring him down to the studio on Monday, but uh I'd be afraid he'd pee on something.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah. So my niece. My niece sends me a picture this morning of a bathroom that looks as if a tornado has hit it. And she's like, guess who did this last night? She has a 95-pound Rottweiler named Lucy. Lucy fucked that bathroom up, man. She destroyed virtually everything in it. Uh I I'll I will uh send uh Mean Dean of the picture and we'll we'll throw it in so people can get a glimpse. Did the dog get trapped in there or something? Oh no. No. Just went in there and tore it up. The two theories are she claims that uh her boyfriend did not close the bathroom door. He claims that the dog knows how to open doors. So either way. She just did it in the night while everybody was asleep.

SPEAKER_10

That's that's insane. You should tell them the we should tell them the Bobby story with the uh Chipotle bag. You remember that? Oh God.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, I do remember that. This cat. All right, so you know how some to some to-go bags from restaurants have the little looped hands.

SPEAKER_10

First, you gotta you gotta set up the story first. First, I'm I'm I'm couch surfing on my couch in my house that he's living in. All right, first of all. So I'm couch surfing and I'm living there, and I'd gotten up. I think I'd gotten up, you were just you just slept really late back then. Like it was almost noon as it was anyway. But I'd gotten up and went out and got some chipotle. It might have been from the day before, something like that. But you know, we we have he had this cat cat that used to be mine that was now his or refused to give back, this cat, Bobby. So, you know, I I put this bag down on the floor for him to play with, you know, cats as cats do with paper bags on the floor. But as you know, those chipotle bags have those kind of hemp or twine loops at the end, right? Yeah, handles. And so go ahead, you can take it from there.

SPEAKER_11

So apparently Bobby was checking out the bag and somehow got the loop or the handle over his head and got his head through it. So he the bag was trapped on his back. He completely panics and goes apeshit, starts running all over the house, and then runs underneath the bed that I'm sleeping in and going crazy.

SPEAKER_02

So that's how I woke up to a cat having a conniption fit.

SPEAKER_10

Oh yeah, he started out in the room with the couch, and then because you know, I guess he just left the door cracked so the cat could go back and forth, but the cat just hauled ass into his room and I'm like, oh shit, it's not gonna be good. It was hilarious. Uh yeah, that that had to be.

SPEAKER_11

And the reason I wouldn't give the cat back is because I walk I was, you know, he had gotten uh had some kidney issues or something, and I had to spend a whole lot, like, I don't know, $1,500, $2,000 almost on surgery for this cat. And so after that, I was like, hey man, sorry, is my cat now? I'm not only emotionally invested, I'm literally invested in this cat now.

SPEAKER_10

Yeah. Yeah, and the way we got that cat was so crazy. That's when I was going out with that crazy chick. And she literally, and this is when it was kind of like uh it was like wintertime ish, so it wasn't really hot. It was kind of a little cool. So she's pulling her car out. All of a sudden the car spits this cat out from under the car. I'm like, and I'm like, hey, stop, stop, stop, stop. And we go and grab the cat. And apparently, I I think maybe the fan maybe like smacked it in the nose or something and had a little bit of a bloody nose, but other than that, it seemed All right. But the cat had a black spot on the end of its nose. And this chick thought it was grease and spent two hours trying to scrub this fucking cat's nose off. It's like finally she said, I think it's just part of his pig. And I'm like, Yeah, no shit, dumbass. But yeah, that's how we that's how we ended up getting that cat. Just like he was going out of the bottom of him for years. And of course, that was many of the cat I have now is a is a sister of that cat. Because there was a there was a mother cat that lived there that lived that lived there till I till I sold the place. I I I actually would have brought her with me, the mother cat. I tried to pick her up and put her in a cat uh cat carrier. She tore my ass up. I mean, I was I was bleeding heavily after I picked that cat up. I mean, I got in her, you know, trained to where she would come in the house. I could pet her, but picking her up, not a good idea.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_10

Didn't turn out well at all.

SPEAKER_11

Uh yeah. Um every cat I've ever had that came from the streets, there was, you know, Bobby and uh little Mau Mau, neither one of them liked to be picked up. The only one that liked to be picked up were the ones that I got as kittens from the from the pound and started holding them, you know, like Mauser. Mauser loved to be picked up.

SPEAKER_10

Yeah, that's true.

SPEAKER_11

But he held since he was you could hold him in his hand in your hand.

SPEAKER_10

Yeah, my my last cat, Rudy, he was he was just a stray feral cat. Although he, you know, I think he lived somewhere and then I don't know, maybe they abandoned him or something, but he seemed to be fine with getting picked up. He didn't mind at all. But he was a weird cat. Anyway. All right, so that's about uh enough of this. I'm getting hot. I'm getting to break, jump in the pool. Oh, I forgot to bring out my towel. God damn it.

SPEAKER_11

Oh well, I can get it later. If anybody wants to call and ask questions about our cats or send us, you know, recordings of their cats, they can do so at 904-549-9024. I'll find anything to segue into that damn slack line if I have to. Yeah, there you go. I was gonna I was gonna attempt to throw it out if you didn't already.

SPEAKER_10

Yeah, I'm gonna do it.

SPEAKER_11

Posing in on triple digits for subscribers. We just got picked up another couple. I think we're at 97 now.

SPEAKER_10

Yeah, but people on X are following me like crazy. I've got a bunch of followers on X now. So I guess Tyler tomorrow.

SPEAKER_11

All of those of you who do, we appreciate it.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_11

Good luck tomorrow, Bob. Oh, thank you.

SPEAKER_10

Yep, yep. Good luck with your and how's your shoulder? Did your shoulder hurt still hurt too, or no? Didn't your shoulder hurt too yesterday?

SPEAKER_09

Or Monday when you shoulder feels a little bit better. It's my right knee. That's um is it still all swole up? Yeah.

SPEAKER_10

Oh wow, yeah. It's gone down a little bit. Gone down a little bit. And you know, the thing is, especially at our age, the worst part of that is like you did it Monday, so it kind of hurt that day. Yesterday it probably hurt a lot worse than Monday. And today is actually the day that probably is the peak, peak pain of coming down it. So keep keep taking those percocets and you know, you get through today.

SPEAKER_11

I'm glad you didn't wait until day three or four to go. You're smart to go.

SPEAKER_10

Oh, yeah, yeah. No, you get yeah, you definitely need some kind of pain meds, nothing else. And what did they say? You didn't break, you didn't break anything.

SPEAKER_09

No fractures, no fractures. That's what I was worried about. That's what I'm saying.

SPEAKER_10

Yeah, you gotta get that checked out for sure. But yeah, you should be fine. Just get all the swelling done. And we're just old. It happens, it happens. All right, guys. I guess we'll uh catch you next episode. All right, thanks. Thanks, guys. I'm going in the pool. See ya. There he goes. What's up, Lee?
