It makes sense. We'll end on more of a lighter note, okay? 27 00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:05,720 Yeah. So this really horrible story is out of Oriol, which is also in Cibutua. 28 00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:12,120 It's not too far from San Sebastian. Okay. Down the coast I've been to Oriol, have you? 29 00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:18,560 I don't think so. On the coast you say though. Yeah, it's like along the Camino de Santiago. 30 00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:27,080 So I've been doing separate routes along the Camino from starting in 31 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:32,280 D'Nosti and then I do different etapas or stages I guess I should say. Oh really? Oh that's sweet. 32 00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:39,680 So with Bobby, so we take you know to one city and then we'll stop there and have lunch and then 33 00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:45,520 the next time we'll take the train to that city where we stopped and do the next stage. Yeah. 34 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:52,640 To the next city and have lunch. Beautiful. Beautiful. So and Oriol is this little you know 35 00:02:52,640 --> 00:02:58,800 small town on the coast. It is very sweet. Just along from D'Nosti really. And Zarauz. Yeah. 36 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:03,960 Was that one day for you guys? That's the first stage that was the first time. For the people to 37 00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:11,920 understand the Camino de Santiago goes to Santiago de Compostela in St. James. St. James yeah. 38 00:03:11,920 --> 00:03:21,880 Of Compostela which is this town in Galicia. And so it's a very old thing but like in 70s or 80s 39 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:29,200 nobody was doing it. Like you would go to this as a kind of religious procession. Right pilgrimage. 40 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:34,120 Pilgrimage. Thank you. So anyway in the 80s it wasn't really happening until somebody wrote a 41 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:40,160 book. Yes. I think it was this. There's a book, there's a movie. Some Brazilian guy I think. Anyway 42 00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:47,360 it sold the this one interior one is the one that got popularized first. Oh. And so because of that 43 00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:53,760 it has pretty regular hotels like every 15 kilometers. Yeah hostels. Exactly. They're more 44 00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:58,920 like yeah hostile type situation where you're sleeping in like dorm kind of situation with 45 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:04,280 bunk beds. Originally. That's the thing though. Like originally. But they still are. They do. Yeah. 46 00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:08,600 A lot of them are still like that. You still do. But it's up to you really where you want to stay. Yeah you can stay 47 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:13,560 wherever you want. Exactly. But because there's lots. But you get like a discount if you're on the. 48 00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:20,000 Sometimes depending on the hotel you place. Right. But if it's a like a municipal hostel thing you 49 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:25,160 there's all sorts of discounts and it's really cheap to do which why a lot of people do it. Yeah. 50 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:29,720 Anyway I did the southern one because well first because my friend was doing. All the way to Galicia. 51 00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:35,960 From Burgos. Really? That was what? So you did the whole thing to Santiago. Yeah it was like 21 days. 52 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:42,600 Wow. I didn't know that. So but what was funny as well though was so so this friend of mine. 53 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:51,400 Bridey. Hi Bridey. Hi. I don't know who you are but hi. You know she's Australian and we met studying 54 00:04:51,400 --> 00:05:00,080 Japanese in Japan. Okay. And so anyway so she she was when we went we went down to Burgos she lasted 55 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:05,960 like two or three days and she was like okay I'm just gonna get a bus. I'll meet you there. Yeah. 56 00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:19,960 But then. And then you walked the whole. I just walked the rest of the way. Oh my god. Because the whole thing of the Camino is for me I found extremely addictive which is you kind of get up in the morning you see some people. 57 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:30,040 I can see how that is. And then you say hi and then you kind of have lunch and you see other people and then you get to the evening to the next place and 58 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:42,040 then you settle in and then you might see that those people that you were walking to and said hi to you during the day might be sleeping there or you might have dinner together or just have a drink afterwards in the bar. 59 00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:56,520 And it's just this moving community of people. Yeah. Yeah. Plus there was a lot of Camino love in my group. So. Oh. Things happening. Spicy. Exactly. Exactly. Canadians meeting Americans. 60 00:05:56,520 --> 00:06:09,040 Americans meeting Europeans. It was very interesting. They don't talk about that in the movie. No. No. There's also all sorts of Caminos. That was the best. So. It was a hook up scene. 61 00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:20,520 Yeah. Nothing concrete happened with me but there was tension in there. It was quite fine. I had no idea. You actually did it. Really recommend it. 62 00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:36,480 Well this story was the 17th of May at around 5 20 p.m. Some middle of the day on Aranzale Street. Fisherman's right outside of a children's park. 63 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:45,440 There was a woman sitting on a bench who was approached by her ex partner. They had planned to meet apparently. 64 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:59,040 People who knew them. There was a what sounded like an explosion and then their two bodies were just bloody and horrible right there on the street. 65 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:11,920 But it turned out that her ex partner had come and shot her with a sawed off shotgun and then killed himself directly after. Wow. 66 00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:21,320 So this woman. Shocking. Yes. Shocking. Of course. Like in the middle of the street right next to a kids park like a little playground. 67 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:28,320 Now I realize the relevance of that piece of information. Yeah. It's just like oh my gosh. Poor people. Yeah. 68 00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:36,920 So her name was Maria Lourdes Del Oyo. She was a native of San Sebastian but she was a resident of Oreo. 69 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:45,720 She was 47 and a mother of two. A 16 year old and a 20 year old. Oh man. So and these were from a previous relationship though. 70 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:54,720 So this person this ex partner of hers they'd only dated for a year and then the relationship ended. 71 00:07:54,720 --> 00:08:04,440 And it sounds like it sounds like they had planned to meet for whatever reason. And then he just came and killed her. Wow. 72 00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:13,000 And then killed himself. The man who committed the crime was Alberto Casado. He was born in Oreo and he was about 50. 73 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:19,720 He was a fisherman and a futsal coach. I don't know what that means. Futsal is like football de sala. 74 00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:24,840 So it's football that's indoors. OK. So I don't know what you call that in English. 75 00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:35,840 He lived just like 200 meters from where this happened. Apparently he had a coffee in a bar nearby before he went and did this. 76 00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:40,880 And so like the sound of it made a lot of the neighbors think that it was an explosion. 77 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:49,840 The sound of it made it. They're like oh my God there's an explosion. So they sent the or China sent out like a bomb squad. 78 00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:56,840 Right. To investigate first to see what the heck happened. And apparently he was carrying it in like a shoe box. 79 00:08:56,840 --> 00:09:05,680 A big shoe box. Yeah. OK. And it turned out it was a a gun that was a sawed off shotgun that was registered in his name. 80 00:09:05,680 --> 00:09:13,000 That he was the registered owner and legally possessed but had manipulated it to make it illegal. 81 00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:19,400 So had no like no background of violence or anything. 82 00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:25,520 You know but I was you know I think she had never called him out for violence. 83 00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:32,320 Right. Like pressed any charges against him for violence. He had no former charges for violence. 84 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:42,800 But I often think like so many people don't report that stuff. Yeah. You know like if it happens in the relationship they often just say oh OK. 85 00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:47,080 No I'm done. I'm out. You know I'm not putting up with this. So they just leave. 86 00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:52,960 They've got enough. So maybe that's what happened here. Like she's got enough space to do that sometimes. 87 00:09:52,960 --> 00:10:00,320 Yeah. It's too late even. Yeah. So maybe she she left when it looked like he might be violent and. Yeah. 88 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:07,200 Wow. That's so sad. Yeah. Very sad. So that's the first story I had. 89 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:12,200 And so that's the worst story I have for today. So there you go. I got the bad one out of the way. 90 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:17,960 But it was very shocking. Yeah. Really shocking. Like in the middle of a very small town I don't even know how big it is. 91 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:21,560 Tiny. Yeah. Just from the map it's really small. You can see it's tiny. 92 00:10:21,560 --> 00:10:29,560 Literally I'm sure a lot of people knew them. Like just really. It's like 10 streets across and seven streets. 93 00:10:29,560 --> 00:10:37,040 Yeah. It's nothing. That's about it. Yeah. But no. Yeah. Well my feelings go out to the family poor children. 94 00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:44,280 And of course like a lot of these cases there's been a huge outcry with machista crimes. Yeah. 95 00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:50,840 Like this has got to stop these partners killing their ex-partners. Yeah. Sort of thing. Yeah. 96 00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:58,680 So they're having. So there's lots of protests and memorials and. That's nice to hear. Vigils and stuff. 97 00:10:58,680 --> 00:11:04,800 Yeah. Yeah. People here are so nice about that. But really. Well people are fed up with hearing about this. 98 00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:10,960 It's like she was number something in machista crimes of this year. It's a good thing to keep track. 99 00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:23,280 OK. The number of women murdered by gender violence in Spain rises to 18 this year and to 1,202 since the statistics began in 2003. 100 00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:32,080 So in Uxca the issue was the first woman murdered in 2023. OK. That's good. Good to know. I mean it is almost middle of the year. 101 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:41,760 But yeah I've read also yeah that the stats here are much lower than the rest of the state. That's good to know. Yeah. 102 00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:59,560 All right. We're back. We're back. OK. So this story is not all that crazy but it's kind of crazy. 103 00:11:59,560 --> 00:12:13,480 Had it happened. Yeah. Anyway. So a. Let's see. The roof of a Pueblo Deportivo which is like a sports center or like a gym gym. 104 00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:20,560 Like a municipal gym. It collapsed. Oh my gosh. Why are you laughing. 105 00:12:20,560 --> 00:12:30,400 Was anybody hurt. No nobody was hurt. We can laugh. Yeah it happened in the early hours like around 7 a.m. 106 00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:37,920 So before it was even open. Good. But the. So it collapsed. Some neighbors heard it. 107 00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:47,680 OK. Still not getting the last. Well I mean just that they heard it and they were getting testimonials from residents around the area. 108 00:12:47,680 --> 00:12:54,480 So it happened around 7 in the morning and it was closed. Right. So the because it occurred at that time nobody was hurt. 109 00:12:54,480 --> 00:13:06,080 So it was like in the court of like a paddle court. Paddle is a sport that's very popular here but it's like it's kind of like. 110 00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:13,160 It's kind of like racquetball or squash. It's like a similar type of for those of you know those types of sports. 111 00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:20,920 It's like a closed in court with walls. So you hit the wall with a ball. You're speaking to our heterosexual listeners. 112 00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:27,160 I used to play racquetball. I have level four racquetball. Wow. University. Look at that. 113 00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:31,680 It was always my extra credit that I would get pass or fail. 114 00:13:31,680 --> 00:13:38,520 So I'd try to fit in like a credit that I could get to get my student aid your financial aid. Oh right. 115 00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:48,360 In order to get the financial aid you had to be a full time student. So you would have to be so many credits per semester. 116 00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:53,280 So I used to you know think OK I'm working and I've got to go to school. 117 00:13:53,280 --> 00:14:04,360 So I had to I did some hard classes make maybe four hard classes but I still had a couple of credits that I needed to fulfill to get the student or the financial aid. 118 00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:10,360 So it would always be like a sport. So I did like snowboarding or I did racquetball for four years. 119 00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:17,240 So I was like the highest level of racquetball. Anyway paddle is much like racquetball. It's in that type of court. 120 00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:24,600 OK. Yeah. So the ceiling collapsed into this court and nobody was there. 121 00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:33,480 Nobody got hurt. And yeah they and it did not interrupt any of the other classes for the worst for the day. 122 00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:38,720 At the time it collapsed and they just continued with the other like OK well that court's out of commission. 123 00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:43,320 So it's not do P.E. but nobody can rent out the paddle court for this day. 124 00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:48,640 But they did have other classes. I thought it was funny in the sense that well nobody got hurt. 125 00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:52,560 You know so it's good there. It's very good for that. All right. 126 00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:58,040 Do you have a story for us. I do. We're continuing a theme here. 127 00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:01,480 OK. Nicaragua back to Nicaragua. Yes. 128 00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:08,040 Nicaragua and again priests. All right. Ortega. 129 00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:11,520 He's been changing his mind a lot. Ortega. 130 00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:20,280 If you read the Wikipedia it's pretty random right. He's like he was just killing priests at first and then he outlawed abortion. 131 00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:24,880 Total 180. And now he's putting priests in jail again. OK. Right. 132 00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:32,200 So this is what happened. He put two people were sent to jail to two sacerdotes. 133 00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:37,920 So I'm translating sacerdotes as priests. Yeah I think it is. 134 00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:43,360 And I think we're talking about the Catholic church. So we call them priests. Right. 135 00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:47,280 So this is a church in Managua the capital. 136 00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:54,280 The two people who were taken to prison was Eugenio Rodriguez Benavides 137 00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:59,800 and Leonardo Guevara Gutierrez. And you wouldn't have thought it right. But Guevara. 138 00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:04,240 Yeah I didn't know that. Guevara means just under the top of the mountain. 139 00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:10,640 So not quite at the top of the mountain. OK. At first they denied that these guys were even in prison. 140 00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:17,080 And then after a couple of days where they had disappeared and people were like well. 141 00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:21,000 They just disappeared. Yeah. And then eventually they were secretly arrested. 142 00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:24,920 They confirmed that they were under arrest. Oh my gosh. 143 00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:30,400 They are accused of being involved with an NGO. 144 00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:37,080 Now the reason why I'm very skeptical is because we were just checking. 145 00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:46,680 Just this this article actually says more than 3500 NGOs have been closed by the Nicaraguan government over the last few years. 146 00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:54,440 So it's not like this NGO certainly did anything wrong. I think he's just angry at NGOs. 147 00:16:54,440 --> 00:17:02,240 So yeah. Trouble brewing in Nicaragua still. And it was kind of funny because I just I just clicked Nicaragua. 148 00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:08,760 And got Basco. And police or something. And sure enough one of the surnames was Basco. 149 00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:13,160 So you know just that that's the comment. The go to the go to story. 150 00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:17,960 But I think it's just as high in Cuba to be honest. Probably. And a few more places. 151 00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:24,920 But anyway since it was a theme of our podcast so far I thought it was nice first to cover that story. 152 00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:34,080 Yeah. OK. Well I have a story about some 27 people that were arrested from Ciputua, 153 00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:41,000 Navarra, Galicia and Pais Basco or Basque Country French Basque Country. 154 00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:50,760 OK. Twenty seven. Twenty seven people for trafficking for illegal trafficking of Angulas. 155 00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:59,120 So Angulas is like the baby eels. Right. And it's a very popular delicacy. 156 00:17:59,120 --> 00:18:06,520 I think they call them leaven in English. I don't know what they call them in English. 157 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:13,240 So they're just like these little tiny baby eels and they're very much a delicacy and very expensive. 158 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:18,200 I've never eaten the real ones. I've never eaten the real ones either because they make a lot of fake ones. 159 00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:23,680 Yeah. They put on top of pinchos. And there's I love them. And it's like cod but they paint them. 160 00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:29,760 Like they literally paint them to look like a line on the line on their back to look like an eel. 161 00:18:29,760 --> 00:18:34,000 And then some little eyeballs. They paint little eyeballs on them to make them look. 162 00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:38,840 The cheap ones don't have eyeballs, but I've never eaten ones with eyeballs. 163 00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:49,200 But it definitely looks cute. And I yeah, I've only seen them like in Japan. 164 00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:54,120 Well, that's where they were sending them all to Asia. That's what happened. 165 00:18:54,120 --> 00:19:03,640 OK, so they were all arrested. It was a macro operation, they say, against the illegal trafficking of eels in which some 166 00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:12,920 they carried out 30 simultaneous searches in homes, companies and clandestine nurseries or farms, I guess, 167 00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:18,480 in which they seized 1.5 tons of live specimens. OK. 168 00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:28,000 Wow. And this was carried out by the Guardia Civil and the French national Gendarmerie. 169 00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:30,960 Thank you. Gendarmerie, if you want to do it more in English. 170 00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:35,880 Gendarmerie. They were they got all the live ones. 171 00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:38,840 They were intended to be sold to Asian countries. 172 00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:46,600 Seven tons of frozen batches were seized without traceability or sanitary controls. 173 00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:52,240 They were unsuitable for for putting into the food market. 174 00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:58,120 Yeah. And more than two million euros of assets were seized. 175 00:19:58,120 --> 00:20:04,720 Wow. Yeah. So the recovered eels that they seized, the ones that were alive, 176 00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:09,000 were returned to their natural environment to preserve their survival. 177 00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:16,320 Oh, nice. Yeah. I found it in English. Oh, yeah. What is it? Baby eel or elver? Elver. 178 00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:19,320 I mixed it up. I think said something similar to that, but I didn't say that. 179 00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:28,080 OK. So this is a highly valued product in some Asian countries where its price reaches values of up to five thousand euros a kilo. 180 00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:37,760 So for years they've been they've they've been finding criminal groups and organizations that are dedicated to stealing batches of live eels and sending them to Asia. 181 00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:46,600 Yeah. So this was the group that they arrested were made up of both fishermen and commercial managers and wholesalers. 182 00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:56,800 They were a circuit. They were a legal circuit of supply to citizens of Chinese origin who had clandestine nurseries in Paris. 183 00:20:56,800 --> 00:21:01,280 And Antwerp in Belgium. Right. Yeah. 184 00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:10,760 So they would organize trips for people to Asia who through different European airports near the nurseries carried luggage containing the eel specimens. 185 00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:17,320 Wow. Yeah. So the stuff that they were able to says during the investigation, 186 00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:28,720 it was found that up to 14 tons of juvenile eel, so the baby eels and 31 tons of adult eel were removed from this this illegal chain of people, 187 00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:34,840 which in the legal market would have reached the value of more than six point seven million euros. 188 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:39,720 Yeah. So that's all I've got on that. But well, I mean, very basque now. 189 00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:44,000 Super basque. I mean, they love those here. 190 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:50,560 I mean, it's like a Christmas time food. True. You know, like the special, the utmost delicacy. 191 00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:55,640 Yeah, they're a delicacy. It's like caviar, you know, or like. 192 00:21:55,640 --> 00:22:02,880 I'm a bit conflicted about that because it's like, well, it doesn't matter that I've tried it or not. 193 00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:07,320 But the fact is I've never tried the real thing. Yeah, no, me neither. 194 00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:13,760 The weird thing for me is that I don't know how much people in Asia eat the babies. 195 00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:22,040 I know here we eat the babies, but I know in Japan, the main market is for adults and they want. 196 00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:27,560 Yeah. Yeah. Unagi is a very famous dish in sushi. Yeah. 197 00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:33,080 And so, yeah, the issue is they like to have the babies and they'll buy them. 198 00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:38,440 They traditionally would raise them in rice paddy fields. 199 00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:44,960 And so they would help with controlling insects and, you know, there's good things about the whole culture as well. 200 00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:49,720 But, of course, like most species, they're declining. 201 00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:54,400 So, yeah, just last year, they put, I think, eel in general. 202 00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:58,960 They just like, well, maybe it's not the best species to eat, you know? 203 00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:03,080 And so it's very dependent on which region you're getting it from, 204 00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:09,640 because some subspecies are kind of like more under pressure than others. 205 00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:12,680 So I guess the ones here are under so much pressure. 206 00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:17,520 But, you know, like eating babies is not the best way to go. 207 00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:27,000 Well, and I think the most the main issue is that they weren't following all the controls or the regulations of the trade. 208 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:32,720 Right. So they weren't following fishing standards or fishing regulations. 209 00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:41,120 And then, yeah, because the moment the thing is not considered, it's considered like a species of concern. 210 00:23:41,120 --> 00:23:44,960 Yeah. Then you're not supposed to be just eating it. 211 00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:47,040 So you're not allowed to do it. 212 00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:48,880 So, of course, you're going to have problems. 213 00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:53,520 But like, I'm sure there's legal ways to do it. 214 00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:58,480 Yes, and there is. It's just then, you know, you've got also limits. 215 00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:02,880 You're not supposed to get 100 percent of the babies or things like that. 216 00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:06,200 Yeah. Because there's also a lot of issues with the eels. 217 00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:12,640 Traditionally, they go up one stream and they have babies up at the top of the stream. 218 00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:20,120 And the babies, they swim out to see grow up once they're born out of eggs. 219 00:24:20,120 --> 00:24:26,680 And then they come up to the same stream to lay eggs again when they're adults, years and years later. 220 00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:29,440 So because of that, it's like very hard. 221 00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:33,960 Like if a population goes extinct in a stream, you might not get any. 222 00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:36,240 You don't get anybody coming back to lay eggs. 223 00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:43,680 So then you have to have a whole thing of putting the babies in as babies or as eggs in the stream to see if they come back to the stream. 224 00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:46,160 And that sometimes works.

There's only about a third of people who use Basque day to day. 334 00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:17,000 I know that younger people have more Basque in their lives, 335 00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:20,200 but they don't necessarily use it day to day. 336 00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:23,800 So the fact that we're. 337 00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:26,800 It's a very slippery slope. I don't like it at all. 338 00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:31,480 This article was saying at the end that was just this just came out this week. 339 00:31:31,480 --> 00:31:36,280 But at the end, they were saying that the government is probably going to 340 00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:39,080 they're going to appeal because. 341 00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:44,160 As I said, communities that are missing a person, 342 00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:47,480 well, they need more police if they need another police, 343 00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:51,440 you don't know which municipality they're in and whether it's a majority 344 00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:55,400 Basque speaking municipality. So, yeah, 345 00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:58,760 I don't know what to say about it because I. 346 00:31:58,760 --> 00:32:03,720 I don't know. I know that. 347 00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:07,080 I don't know. I don't even know if I want to get into it. 348 00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:11,960 Yeah, it's fine. I know you're ambiguous about the theme and 349 00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:17,760 and it's it's, you know, everybody is free to have their own opinions. 350 00:32:17,760 --> 00:32:22,920 And you know that I'm very committed to the cause of Basque language, especially. 351 00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:27,960 I know. And so, you know, I think Basque autonomy in a political sense 352 00:32:27,960 --> 00:32:30,440 is very important to safeguard Basque. 353 00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:33,960 I understand your passion for it. And 354 00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:36,080 and we probably differ on a few things. 355 00:32:36,080 --> 00:32:40,400 We've had a lot of Douglas and I have been on each other for a very long time. 356 00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:44,840 We've had a lot of very emotional arguments over the years. 357 00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:49,000 Yeah. Where we both ended up crying. 358 00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:52,680 Yeah. But it's just because we disagree on some things. 359 00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:55,800 But I'm not I don't disagree with your. 360 00:32:55,800 --> 00:33:00,840 I mean, I disagree with every friend of mine on a lot of things. 361 00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:03,960 Of course we do. That's why we're individuals. 362 00:33:03,960 --> 00:33:07,960 But exactly, you know, that's the beauty of friendship is that we know we're different. 363 00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:10,360 Yes, we love each other. Absolutely. 364 00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:13,960 And we believe in a lot of things in common. 365 00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:17,480 Exactly. That's the most important thing. We agree more than we disagree. 366 00:33:17,480 --> 00:33:23,080 Of course. What was our rule? 80 percent's enough. Yeah. 367 00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:28,200 All right. Let's go with a more lighthearted story. 368 00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:34,600 Out of D'Nosti again. D'Nosti. Yeah. The heart of the Basque speaking country. 369 00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:37,800 They do speak a lot more Basque than Bilbao for sure. 370 00:33:37,800 --> 00:33:42,680 Statistically. Yeah. So a parked car. 371 00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:45,720 OK, we're starting. Re-tabbing. Oh really? 372 00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:50,280 A parked car. This is the best thing about the story. A parked car. 373 00:33:50,280 --> 00:33:56,760 So a parked car ran over the terrace of a bar in Gross, the Gross neighborhood. 374 00:33:56,760 --> 00:33:58,680 You know Gross? It's part of D'Nosti. 375 00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:01,800 Yeah, it's a neighborhood that has a lot of nice. 376 00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:06,760 Yeah, I like I spend a lot of time in D'Nosti because I have friends live there. 377 00:34:06,760 --> 00:34:11,160 Goyo. Hey, Goyo. Hi, Goyo. Hi, Sergio. Hi, Sergio. 378 00:34:11,160 --> 00:34:14,600 I don't know if Sergio listens, but Goyo definitely does. 379 00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:18,760 Yes. So a parked car ran over the terrace of a 380 00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:22,120 bar in the Gross neighborhood. I'm still confused. 381 00:34:22,120 --> 00:34:24,280 Was there a lot of wind involved? How was the parked car? 382 00:34:24,280 --> 00:34:28,680 No, this is what happened. The handbrake wasn't on. 383 00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:33,640 Oh no. So it basically was parked near the 384 00:34:33,640 --> 00:34:38,360 terrace and then I guess it just started rolling, moving 385 00:34:38,360 --> 00:34:44,280 downhill into the terrace. So it just ran into all the tables 386 00:34:44,280 --> 00:34:47,960 and chairs. Of course, it's silence. Did people 387 00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:51,320 realize it was coming? Well, yeah, like people had to jump out of the way. 388 00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:54,360 This is around 9 p.m. at night. Oh, crying time. 389 00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:58,600 And it was on a slight slope, it says in the story. 390 00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:03,160 So the customers who were sitting in the outdoor terrace of the premises at the 391 00:35:03,160 --> 00:35:08,840 front, at the foot of the street, were kind of impacted by the car. 392 00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:11,720 Oh my gosh. But nobody really got that hurt. 393 00:35:11,720 --> 00:35:15,000 Well, if it wasn't too fast. And it was stopped by a pot, like a 394 00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:18,760 like a large pot at the end. Like I was probably holding like some lovely 395 00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:22,840 flowers. So is this our first... So the car was 396 00:35:22,840 --> 00:35:27,720 like just barreling through the tables and the chairs and everybody 397 00:35:27,720 --> 00:35:29,880 that was sitting on the terrace and then just was 398 00:35:29,880 --> 00:35:33,800 stopped by this pot, probably of flowers. Some minor drama. 399 00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:38,280 Yeah, yeah. So there were ambulances sent to the scene. 400 00:35:38,280 --> 00:35:44,520 So bad. I know. They were sent to the scene. There were no significant injuries, 401 00:35:44,520 --> 00:35:48,920 but they had to attend to several people after having suffered scratches 402 00:35:48,920 --> 00:35:52,680 and being shaken by fright. 403 00:35:53,400 --> 00:35:56,520 Well, I guess we can see how 404 00:35:56,520 --> 00:36:01,320 high up the echelon that neighborhood is. 405 00:36:01,320 --> 00:36:04,600 Yeah, people are very sensitive in that neighborhood. 406 00:36:04,600 --> 00:36:08,360 Drama at the highest level, yeah. I mean, if it's a... 407 00:36:08,360 --> 00:36:11,320 Is that kind of... It's a nice part of town, right? 408 00:36:11,320 --> 00:36:14,360 So... Well, I mean the whole town is nice. It is. 409 00:36:14,360 --> 00:36:17,800 It's not really a bad part of town. It's nasty. 410 00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:22,840 Gross, specifically. I hear with tones... Why not? No, no. It's a nice... 411 00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:26,120 It's... No, but like okay, La Concha, where the restaurant, the Michelin 412 00:36:26,120 --> 00:36:30,200 restaurant was located, that charged the guy 510 euros. That's a nice, 413 00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:36,840 nice part of town, right? Gross was like the part of town that was like 414 00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:42,520 outside of that, right? Okay. So, but now it's super trendy and... 415 00:36:42,520 --> 00:36:46,440 So there's a lot of like new... So it's like recently gentrified. 416 00:36:46,440 --> 00:36:50,120 Kind of, but like the whole thing is gentrified. The whole place is like... 417 00:36:50,120 --> 00:36:53,560 The whole of Donosti. Nice, yeah. Like there's no bad part of town 418 00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:57,880 in Donosti. It's gorgeous, guys. Gorgeous. You gotta go. The whole thing is... 419 00:36:57,880 --> 00:37:03,720 You gotta go. It's lovely. There's no riff-raff. No, no. Too expensive. 420 00:37:03,720 --> 00:37:09,720 Even the bus there is expensive. Too expensive to go there and do any bad shit. 421 00:37:10,440 --> 00:37:15,320 Oh, Donosti. As we might say in this occasion, gno gno sti. 422 00:37:15,320 --> 00:37:18,920 Yes, gno gno. You have to explain what that is. What is gno gno? 423 00:37:18,920 --> 00:37:24,760 Gno gno. So gno gno is like if you call a guy gno gno, 424 00:37:24,760 --> 00:37:28,360 ay que gno gno it is, right? Oh my gosh, you're so gno gno. 425 00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:31,720 Okay. It's kind of like saying, oh you're so posh. 426 00:37:31,720 --> 00:37:40,920 Ah, okay. Like, so it's with posh, posh in perhaps a slightly more silly way. 427 00:37:40,920 --> 00:37:47,240 Yeah, like almost like insulting. It is definitely insulting. 428 00:37:47,240 --> 00:37:50,760 Like yeah, I guess you could call you posh in a nice way. 429 00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:57,480 I've never heard. You can call me that. I mean, yeah, but like, yeah, I just, 430 00:37:57,480 --> 00:38:01,400 I'm just, yeah. It's been a long time I haven't heard the word posh in a nice 431 00:38:01,400 --> 00:38:04,200 context is what I mean. No, true. But gno gno is... 432 00:38:04,200 --> 00:38:08,440 A lot of people get offended by posh. Gno gno is not evil. It's not 433 00:38:08,440 --> 00:38:12,040 bad, but it is silly. Like it's calling you silly. It's like upper class. 434 00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:15,720 Or like, yeah, like you're too... So this is a perfect example. 435 00:38:15,720 --> 00:38:21,880 Image oriented or something. Yeah, in my brain, because if you say 436 00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:25,240 you're gno gno, it's like, oh you're kind of like a 437 00:38:25,240 --> 00:38:30,200 weak and silly and you've got wrong priorities in a way, I guess. 438 00:38:30,200 --> 00:38:38,200 Yeah. So if you're shocked and horrified by a car that just slids... 439 00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:43,240 And you need an ambulance. Yeah, you know, that would be a perfect occasion to call 440 00:38:43,240 --> 00:38:49,400 somebody gno gno. Yeah, totally. So because Donosti is such a rich 441 00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:54,040 place, people sometimes play with the name of Donosti and call it 442 00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:59,240 gno gno sti, which is perfect for this occasion, right? 443 00:38:59,240 --> 00:39:05,640 Yes, absolutely. So it all came to an end when a group of 444 00:39:05,640 --> 00:39:09,800 people managed to remove the vehicle from the terrace and held it down to 445 00:39:09,800 --> 00:39:13,640 prevent it from moving again. So they got the tables back. They just 446 00:39:13,640 --> 00:39:16,920 stopped. They all just went and put their hands on the car, basically. 447 00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:21,160 Stop it from... It hit the pot and then everybody went to, 448 00:39:21,160 --> 00:39:24,520 you know, put their hands on it. Reorganize the tables. 449 00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:29,160 To prevent it from moving again. And the owners of the car went down to the 450 00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:33,720 street after hearing all the noise and then activated their... Then they 451 00:39:33,720 --> 00:39:37,160 just put on the handbrake. 452 00:39:37,160 --> 00:39:45,800 I mean, the drama. The drama. Like, so anyway, that story is funny because 453 00:39:45,800 --> 00:39:49,960 I, you know, found it this morning while looking for stories to talk about 454 00:39:49,960 --> 00:39:53,160 tonight. And tonight when I was leaving work, I was 455 00:39:53,160 --> 00:39:57,160 crossing one street and there was a cop car in the 456 00:39:57,160 --> 00:40:03,000 middle of the street with its lights on. A surprise. And it appeared as though a 457 00:40:03,000 --> 00:40:07,240 car that had been parked in a parking spot 458 00:40:07,240 --> 00:40:11,400 had rolled out into the street. It looked like the same thing and I was like, oh 459 00:40:11,400 --> 00:40:16,760 my god, that's like the story I just found about a car that was just parked 460 00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:21,240 and somebody didn't put on the handbrake. Our second parking crime. 461 00:40:21,240 --> 00:40:26,280 Our second parking crime. Yep. Never had one of those. So there you go. That's the mini crime time for 462 00:40:26,280 --> 00:40:29,240 tonight. Even parking can be a crime, guys. 463 00:40:29,240 --> 00:40:35,160 Yeah, put on the handbrake. Put on the handbrake. Actually, I have a story that I did in 464 00:40:35,160 --> 00:40:40,840 Boise, Idaho. I did not put on the handbrake. Oh my gosh, that's terrible. It was 465 00:40:40,840 --> 00:40:45,080 horrible because it wasn't my car. It was my friend's car. It didn't hit 466 00:40:45,080 --> 00:40:51,800 anything. Lucky Julie. I know. I was parked in the 467 00:40:51,800 --> 00:40:57,720 parking garage at my university. Okay. And I parked and I was leaving and I 468 00:40:57,720 --> 00:41:02,200 was walking and then I heard people yelling and I 469 00:41:02,200 --> 00:41:06,440 turned around and I saw the car, my friend's car that I had borrowed, 470 00:41:06,440 --> 00:41:12,120 rolling out into the middle of the parking. I was like, oh my god. 471 00:41:12,120 --> 00:41:15,960 So I didn't put on the handbrake. So that actually did happen. So 472 00:41:15,960 --> 00:41:19,400 did it sort of stop by itself or did you have to... Yeah, it was rolling out but there 473 00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:22,120 were people kind of trying to stop it because people were worried it was going 474 00:41:22,120 --> 00:41:25,320 to hit a car. Excellent. And so it didn't hit anything. 475 00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:29,400 Community. 10 points Boise. But it was really embarrassing more than anything. 476 00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:35,160 It was more like, oh my god, that's mine. I did that. You know, I had to turn around 477 00:41:35,160 --> 00:41:38,280 and go back and like... Hey, at least there was not... 478 00:41:38,280 --> 00:41:42,680 On the handbrake. Imagine if some rich people were sipping wine 479 00:41:42,680 --> 00:41:47,960 in a bar and then it ran through like tables and stuff. Way worse. That wasn't as bad. 480 00:41:47,960 --> 00:41:50,920 Yeah, it would have been a lot worse. Could have been worse. 10 points Boise. 481 00:41:50,920 --> 00:41:55,720 Could have been worse. But I have had that happen. 482 00:41:55,720 --> 00:42:00,120 So it's, you know, it's possible. It does happen. I feel your pain. 483 00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:03,800 It was pretty embarrassing.
