Hey everyone, the DTH gals are on our cat poop and puke odyssey experience in Charleston. While we're gone, enjoy this bonus episode of a DTH practice session. See you later! Bye! 
It's probably in the manual, don't you think? Is that the manual you threw out? I did find one online though. Oh yeah, I know. That's why I threw it out. I need to just download it. Because I was like, I'm not keeping this piece of paper when everything's online. Everything. Everything including us. Oh my gosh. I like your shirt. Thanks. 
[Opening Theme:  “So Good,” by Orkas]
Welcome to Delete This History of Podcasts by two women of a certain age searching for answers. We're your host, Brea Brown. And Cara Birch. Hello Cara Birch. Hi Brea Brown. Another busy week we are... Practicing slash recording on a weekday. A weekday evening. Yes. After work, after things. I edited the podcast from last week. How'd it go? It was very funny. I was laughing out on my mother-in-law's deck while I was editing, but I noticed that we sounded a little bit tired. Oh, is that right? Yeah, we were not as chipper as our Saturday recordings. Interesting. Yeah. I, you know, it doesn't surprise me, but I didn't even think about that. Especially me. I was really flat. I sounded like, I sounded like a Class A bitch. But I was like, you know, that's life sometimes. Sometimes you're not always on. We are our own worst critic though. I bet it didn't sound, I bet you didn't sound as cranky as you think you did. No, probably not. I'm gonna have to listen to that one. I just know how it usually sounds. Right. And it was just kind of like, jeez. Okay, so. Who killed your best friend? Lesson learned. Week, nights, after work are not the best. No, but sometimes they're gonna be necessary, I think, and you just do what you do and I don't know. It's not always gonna be the same and it's not always gonna be 100% awesome. No, although we are 100% awesome. All the time, even when we don't sound like it. It's there, isn't it? Yes, exactly. It's not rising to the surface. I have a question. Yes? What have you done to your thumb? Oh my thumb. We just got back from vacation, like a couple hours ago, and we were in Arkansas for a few days like Sunday to today, and we were supposed to come home yesterday, but we decided to stay an extra night. That meant we got home a little later than I thought, even though I was a speed demon. So anyway, we got home and I was like, okay, I need to fill out my timesheet. Like I had all this list of things I needed to do. But number one was I need to take a shower. Okay. Because when I'm staying at other people's houses, I don't like to get naked. It really like bothers me. I just don't like it. So I had to get naked once at my mother-in-law's house. And that was like my naked threshold. I just couldn't do it. You met it. So thank God for dry shampoo and wet wipes and things like that. So I was in the shower. I went to go shave my legs, which nothing good comes from shaving. And I noticed that the protective cover was still on the razor. I'm getting tingly. I know. All my limbs are getting them. And I went to take it off and it was hard to get. the cover off and so I pulled harder and I shaved off the tip of my thumb and you know just a few layers of skin and it bled and it bled and it bled I mean it looked like there was a murder in the shower from a thumb how many razor blades are on that like five it was a four blader as soon as it happened I was like well That just happened. Like, I knew. Anyway, it bled a lot, and so I have to have this big ridiculous bandage on my thumb because I didn't want it to bleed through the gauze. I want to draw a little smiley face on it. Here is Duncan, here is Duncan. It's so cute. It is. I'm sorry that happened. It's really sloppy because it's on my right hand. And I'm a can't do anything with my left hand right hander. So you should have seen me in the bathroom. It's bleeding profusely and I'm trying to like deal with the gauze and the tape and the, cause a regular band-aid wasn't gonna cut it. So what are you and Sean up to planning for your New York City trip? We haven't really made any definite plans. We've got a list of some things we wanna hit that are in like kind of within a few blocks of the hotel. So we're gonna go do that stuff and we're gonna just. you know, do touristy things and go to top of Empire State Building, which costs $50 a person. What? Yes. To go up in an elevator? In a building? And be on the observation deck. $50! I checked 30 Rock. No, the Empire State Building may be 42. And 30 Rock, which is top of the rock, it's 50. See, this is where my Midwestern brain just, it doesn't compute. I didn't even, I didn't even think, like someone, I was looking at tips on visiting New York. And one of them was, if you wanna go to the top of the rock or Empire State Building, get your tickets ahead of time so you don't have to wait in line because lines are so long. And so you will save yourself some time. And I was like, oh, tickets. Meg Ryan didn't pick up a ticket. Exactly. And sleepless in Seattle when she ran up there and left Walter. What about Walter? I was shocked and I told Sean about it and he's like, so we'll just pick one and go. I was like, Oh man, I don't think I can shell out that cash. I said, why don't one of us just go over there and take a bunch of pictures. You go to top of the rock. I'll go to the empire state building. We'll take plenty of pictures. And yeah, spend $100 looking around New York. Oh, how much money? You know what? I should have, I should have searched two things. One, when did they start charging to go up to the observation deck? Cause I'm kind of curious to how much money are they raking in every day? How many people visit every day? It's got to be thousands of dollars. And maybe that's why they charge too, because. It. Oh, it keeps people? Yeah, keep the numbers down. Keep the riff raff out. It would also just keep the numbers down. Even people who can't afford it, some are going to say, F that noise, and they're not going to do it. Yeah. Sean said, we can't take it with us, so we're going to the top. I mean, just to be in that city would be pretty stinkin' cool. Yeah. I got on Google and searched, like, OK, this is where our hotel is, and did like, made Google walk down the street a few ways, you know? It's really, it looks really neat. I'm excited. Well, I'm glad that you're not having constant diarrhea thinking about it. No, I'm doing okay. Okay, good. Yep, I mean, I still have a week. So the diarrhea may be back building. Oh, lovely. But I think I'm gonna be okay. Lovely, lovely, lovely. Okay. We're not here to talk about diarrhea though. Wait, what? We're not. We're here to share our internet search histories. Oh, that's right. To beckon the belly laughs. That's right. Mine's kind of dark this week. Is it? I know. I, after I compiled it, I was like, Wow, this is a lot of dark stuff. Mine is eclectic as usual. Excellent. I've got some funny backstories. So okay, cool. And some interesting information that came from my searches. You know what? I actually learned a lot too. This is a side, I was gonna say side effect. It's not a side effect. I don't know what you call it because I'm so tired. It's a blah, blah of doing all of these searches. And I'm like learning so much. I know. And I mean, I know that's the point, but that's not typically how I use searches. Right. So I'm actually searching more thoroughly than I normally do. I used to pride myself on remembering all kinds of information about movies and TV shows and actors and writers and directors and it's gone. It's all gone. Yeah. All that minutia is just... I think it's because... We have phones now. But we don't have to remember anything. Yeah, that's what I mean. Like I don't, my brain's like, oh, thank God. I don't have to keep James Cameron in my head anymore as the director of blah, because I have this phone over here. Oh yes, I'm always thankful when I don't have to keep James Cameron in my head. So we're going to do the reading of the list. It's Cara's turn to read her list first. So this is my search history for the past week. What type of landmine is a bouncing Betty? Why did Americans call the Viet Cong Charlie? Shocking? Not shocking. Current air quality in New York City. Last of the Mohicans' heart-eating scene. Good night Oscar tickets on Broadway. 36 things to do in New York City. Who is Gabby Hayes? Lyanna Mormont. Who is the band Twice? Sean and Scotty lip syncing videos, and who sings blister in the sun? Lots of questions on there, old lady. You know, so many questions! No, I'm kidding. These days, Google says, wait, are you sure you want to ask me that? It's not in the form of a question. You have the Jeopardy version of Google? Exactly, yes. Form of a question, please. Okay. Oh my gosh, I watched a lot of Wheel of Fortune this past week, too. Oh, I suppose you've heard the news about Pat. I did. because I watched a lot of news and I watched a lot of Wheel of Fortune. And so those two in the Venn diagram of old peopleness. overlap quite a bit. Love me some Wheel of Fortune. I don't like the new Wheel of Fortune though. They've changed too much. I like the old school version. I don't know. I was really enjoying it. Oh, did you? Like it? Okay. And then I started to worry because I was enjoying it so much. And I was like, oh no. Yep. I'm enjoying Wheel of Fortune years old. Year. It's okay. Just own it. It's alright. I still do think that Pat Sajak is kind of a dick. I do too. But it's kind of funny anyway. But there were some things that he said and I, I mean I laughed. But I was like, wow. That was, that's kind of a dick move. Yep. So maybe it's time to say goodbye. I think it is. Yeah. Bye Pat. Is Vanna gonna stay, I wonder? I don't think so. You know what? They should both leave. I think that this is her last season. Oh. I think she decided to leave before him. Do not quote me on that. Okay. Maybe that's something I need to Google this week. That'd be really sad. Do you have a suggestion on who you think should take their places? My mother-in-law said that Pat Sajak's daughter is taking Vanna's place. Oh. And I was not happy with that. That's interesting. I said his daughter should take... his place. 100%. And we should get some kind of beefcake, hotty, to take Vanna's place, a man. To wear Viking sweaters. Google it, people. Um... You're right! I am with you 100%. It's time that somebody hot and oily... Yeah. ..with no shirt on... ..to be ogled by the masses. Yes. He can spin around up there and tap the screens. Say no words and just smile. And laugh at everything that Say Jack Daughter says. You are right. I love it. My mother-in-law did not like my idea. But she doesn't like most of my ideas. Oh, well, I love your idea. She laughs a lot at my ideas. Let's just put it that way. She just says, you're something else. And that's just a step above bless your heart. Bless your heart. I was thinking the exact same thing. So I am something else. You know what? You are something else. I agree. So I really can't argue with her about that. Okay, are you ready for my list? I'm so ready. My list. I've heard it's eclectic. It is eclectic. As always, but guess what is absent from my list this week? I know what's absent. Kansas City Raging Bulls? What's it called? Kansas City... Sporting Kansas City. Sporting, so it's there? Not even close. We should be the Raging Bulls! I think so. Okay, are you ready? Yes. What is... I'm starting out with a question. What is the minimum population of a city, width of the Great Wall of China, Japanese art broken stuff, Fanning the Great, Climax Springs, Missouri, OG, cassowaries... Sugar Ray Leonard age. How many tablespoons dry coffee grounds per pot? That is an important question. And it's not really a question because I left out like a verb. Oh, okay. So I was very careful not to make it a real question. Ox versus bull. Dingbat house. Groin spelled G-R-O-Y-N-E. So many questions are flying through my head. I don't even know where to start. How we can really get started on our conversation now is to play a little game. We like to call search me. This is the game where we try to guess which search item fits the description that we give. Yes. Each other. Okay. Do you want me to go first? Yes, ma'am. Okay. Today you're playing for. Holy crap. The mega doodle. The mega doodle post-it continues to grow. I love it. I'm continuing. It's beautiful. I can't wait to take a picture and show our two listeners on Instagram. The question is, which of, here I'll give you my list so you can review it. Which of these searches was prompted by my listening to a conversation between my two male bosses? Um, I'm going to say last of the Mohicans eating hearts. Ding, ding, ding. You win that post. I finally won it. It's yours. Cara and I have been practicing. This is our fifth practice. Yes. And this doodle has been up for grabs for me for four weeks now. Continually growing, like the lottery. Yes, and I finally won. Hit the jackpot. They both had gone to a meeting. They walked back to the office together because their offices are very close to each other. And they were just talking about, I think they were talking about Riders of the Lost Ark because one of them was talking about how it freaked him out as a kid to see the guy's heart beating in the palm of the hand of the bad guy. And so then that made the other boss say, well, I'll tell you what freaked me out was in Last of the Mohicans when Magwa... pulled the heart out of the guy and ate it in front of him. And I said, that happened in Last of the Mohicans? And so then I had to look it up because I don't remember that part. Do you want to hear something really creepy? Naturally. This is kind of creepy. While I was gone on vacation, there was a conversation about the Last of the Mohicans at my in-laws house. What? When you said that I was just like, oh my gosh. Because that movie is old. 1992. That was junior high for me, I think. It's my father-in-law's favorite movie. OK. That's why it came up. I don't know why we were talking about favorite movies. And my husband, he didn't like that answer. It was weird. Did he argue with him about it? Yeah, he kind of like movie shamed him about it. And I was like, that was a great movie. It was a good movie. And it won lots of awards. I mean, Daniel Day-Lewis, come on. Yeah, Daniel Day-Lewis is like one of the best actors of all time. My favorite part is just when he's running through the woods. My favorite part is just when Daniel Day-Lewis does anything. You know what I remember most from that movie? I do not remember the heart eating scene. I do. But it's, it is there because... You looked it up. I did and YouTube was gracious enough to say, here you go. Boom. I turned it off quickly. What I remember most from that movie is the blonde chick committing suicide and going over the waterfall. Do you remember that? Spoiler alert. Oh, sorry, if you haven't seen this movie from 1992. She's fine, it's fine. Someone catches her below. There was a when we were talking about it. There was a spoiler alert as well. Clint said something and And it wasn't either one of those two things but our kids haven't seen it because it's such an old It is old but you know what there wouldn't be really anything in that you're like, oh this doesn't hold up like, you know I mean, it's historical. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. Yeah Yeah, I think we're gonna make our kids watch it We made them watch Gladiator recently because neither one had seen it. Did you stay awake through it? Gladiator! I did for the very first time. Good job! In my whole history with Gladiator. I actually saw the whole movie from start to finish. I stayed awake and there were parts that I was like, never seen this part. Did you cry at the end? Nope. Oh! I've seen the end before. Oh, okay. I seem to always wake up right before the end And see it and be like oh, but there were a few parts in the middle a few middle parts where I was like Oh, that's new to me Well, I'm glad you stayed awake. That's good. My kids liked it too. So good Okay, Cara. Yep this week. You're playing for a treat of your choice from Andy's frozen custard I am so okay Okay, I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready. This week, I want you to try to guess which search actually raised my street cred with my kids. Ooh. Unlike using the term street cred. While prompting my mother-in-law to issue a thinly veiled death threat on their behalf. What? Okay. It gets, it gets real when we're all together. Okay, I guess. Oh my gosh. I'm going to go with. groin with a Y. Oh crap! Nope. Okay. It was OG. Oh. Why? We were sitting out on the front porch, like you do, in Arkansas. Right? Listening to the birds. And somebody brought up OG, I don't know how it came up, and I said, original gangster. But I probably said gangsta. And nobody of my race, very, very white, should ever say gangsta. Yeah. Ever. I would agree with that. But I said it. And my kids said, no, mom, it just means original. Wrong. And I said, no. No, it's not an abbreviation for original. That doesn't even make sense. Did you say, I grew up with 90s rap? Right. I know. Listen, they were not moved. They were not convinced. I had to whip out the search. I had to whip out the phone. Absolutely. And search it. And I read a whole entry about. how the whole term original gangster originated, which is very interesting. I encourage people to Google it for themselves and read it. And they looked at me like, oh my gosh. You blew their mind. And so of course I wasn't obnoxious about it, about being right. You never are. I never am. So I kept saying things like, and who was right again? Who was right about what that means? And I think it really annoyed my mother-in-law to the point that half jokingly she said, you are something else and you gotta sleep sometime. Oh my gosh! So I had to explain to her that my kids are used to me being obnoxious like that when I'm right about something and we look it up. and I'm proven right about something, which is quite often by the way, I'm not to brag, but it still gives me a real jolt. Because they are both at an age right now where I am the dumbest person on the planet. And there's lots of implied dumbass at the end of all their sentences directed at me. And so, when I get to prove to them that I know shit, I've been on the planet long enough to know shit like what OG means. It feels amazing. And so yeah, sometimes I get a little carried away, but it's all in good fun and they laugh about it and they're just like, oh, that's just mom. And you know what? I bet it solidifies in their mind, the thing that you were right about and they won't forget it because they don't want to hear it again. They don't want to be like, oh gee, it means just original and you're like, oh, excuse me. We already went through this. We've talked about this. It's actually, it has to do with the Crips. It's not even really. Interesting. Originally about rap. It's about actual gangsters. Oh well I knew that but I did not know it was associated with the Crips though. Yes. Interesting. Originally. I see why you're out there. Anyway. Okay that's some good information and you stuck it to your kids. That's right. And my mother-in-law threatened to kill me. You know the worst part of this is I didn't get Andes. I know. And I will never deliver on that. All right. I understand. I got that wrong. Fair and square. It's time for your very favorite segment. I love this segment. It's called, but what about this one? It's where I get to ask all these questions and your list is so good. I got questions. Well, I get to ask some questions too. Oh, yeah. My listening isn't as good though. Your list is really good. You're like, I get to ask all these questions. No, you have to take turns asking questions. Fine. Cause I have questions as well. Alright, okay. Do you want to start? You want me to start? I'm going to start and ask you first. Okay. Because you read your list first. Oh yeah. Ugh. So out of it. Things are going to be so much better when I'm back from New York. I promise. I'm going to have sleep. My bind is not going to be preoccupied. It's going to be great. You have a beautiful mind. I want to know who is the band twice. Because I don't know either. Well this may give you a hint. We were eating sushi in a restaurant at the time. And I thought to myself, why am I so annoyed? Like I just feel so annoyed right now. And I realized that the music that was playing is not to my taste. K-pop? Well you look up twice. What's the difference? Well J-pop is Japanese pop. Oh nope this is K-pop. It was K-pop. Yep so this is a girl band, South Korean girl group, and they were formed on the television program 16. Like a long time ago. Like this is not a recent situation. Oh okay. Like it's Hey Shazam, if you want to, if you want to sponsor us, I use you a lot. All right. So it's my turn to ask you a question. Where am I going to start? Okay. I want to know, um, what's cassowaries? I don't know what that word is. It is a flightless bird. Like are those multiple birds cassowaries? Yes. Okay. What? So flightless birds native. to the tropical forests of New Guinea, like Papua New Guinea and West Guinea. And they look like something out of a nightmare. So I encourage you to search it. Okay. Right now. And if you're listening, I encourage you. to search cassowary it is C-A-S-S-O-W-A-R-Y. Ew, I don't like the thing on top of its head. It is. Isn't that part of its beak? Creepiest and. That's part of its beak. Yeah. And it is very large. It's like a cross between a turkey vulture. And an emu. and a turkey like because it's got that beard. It's really colorful though, or at least the front half of it is. It's super scary. How did this come up in conversation? Well, I'm glad you asked because- Oh, sorry. Heather and I, the Heather of the Garfield Skates and the listener of this podcast. Hi, Heather. She and I play a game called Picture Cross, and it is where you fill in a grid with Xs, or squares like the filled in, it's a grid of squares, and you fill in the squares with either, you fill it completely in or it's an X, meaning that it's an empty. But you have to signify it some way that there's nothing in the square. So you put an X in the square. And then everything else is filled in. And it creates a picture. but it looks like something out of Minecraft. It's a very pixelated picture. I was gonna say, is it like, oh, so that's the thing you texted me? Yes. Oh, I was so confused. I was like, what, is she drunk? It didn't make any sense. Cause I was like, and I think I tried, I was, you either texted me at work or I was almost asleep or something. Like I was incredibly distracted at that moment. And I was like, I gotta come back to this. And then I didn't. But I thought she's got to be drinking. I don't remember what I texted you though. Okay, so it was, it looks like dog teeth. A dog with pixelated teeth. Hang on, I've got it right here. Here it is. This. Was it this past week? Yes. It was called comedy teeth, but it looked like, Peyton said it looked like Mr. Potato Head a little bit. Oh, yeah. But anyway, when you fill out this, it's a puzzle. Okay. And after you fill it out and solve the puzzle, it's supposed to reveal a picture. And it's a pic- it's a very pixelated picture and it hardly ever looks like what it says it is. Oh. Or if it does, it looks way jacked up and crazy. And so one of, um, the puzzles was cassowary. And can you imagine one of those things pixelated? So it looked really weird. And I was like, I've got to search this and see what it looks like in real life. And it didn't look any less creepy in real life than it did in the pixelated cartoony picture. Interesting, what's this game called? It's called Picture Cross. And then Heather and I send each other screenshots like I did, you there. Heather and I send each other screenshots. of the puzzles that we do, because she does them, I do them. And the most ridiculous ones, we send screenshots to each other and laugh about them. And laugh at each other's reactions to them. A lot of times it just looks like a pile of poop, and it's supposed to be something like a puppy. And then sometimes they're halfway decent. So you're not playing together. It's not like a tag team game. No, it's not like it's a game you both play. It's not like it's a game you both play. It's not a competitive game. It's just something that she told me about. And I was like, oh, I kind of like this because it's just kind of a logical game. Okay. Because you have to figure out how many of the squares in each column in row to X out and how many to fill in. Oh. Sounds too taxing for my tiny brain. It's really not you start to get like you start to remember the patterns and like oh if I have anyway, I won't like bore you with With the I'll check it out. But yeah, what's it called again picture cross? Picture cross picture cross picture cross picture cross picture cross. It's kind of it kind of looks like cross stitching Oh, that helps. Because of the X's. Okay. Yup, yup, yup. I'm going to write it down too because that'll help my brain. Picture a graph. How long do we have this room, Cara? We have it I think until 830. Until 830, okay. I think so. That's something I can check. So that was cassowary. It was good! That's a good search! It was scary. It is the strangest bird I've ever seen. It's a very weird bird. I saw a scissor tail on the way to work today. I don't know that those are super common around here. Is that like a hawk? No, it's just like a, I think it may be a songbird. But it's got a scissor-like tail. Oh, yes. As the name implies. I don't think I've ever seen one of those. Scissortail Flycatcher is what Google is telling me. Here. Boop. It's so cute. Oh, it is really cute. But it flew off the power line, like, right over my car. And I was like, holy crap, that's a scissortail. Well, look at you. Miss Audubon Boots over here. I mean, also known as the Texas Bird of Paradise. Texas bird of paradise. Oh Texas, you had to ruin it. Just ruined. Alright, I need to know about good night Oscar tickets on Broadway. Oh god, sorry. Such a grandma. So, Sean Hayes is in this. He's the main character. He's Oscar. And it's going to, he's playing, it's... It's there while we're there and he's been nominated for a Tony Award for it. Now the Tonys I think are over and done with. I don't know if he won or not. Um, he was nominated and I've heard it's really good. It's play and it's like, I mean, we, I have Friday night free and there's a Friday night show and so I'm thinking about going to it. Wouldn't that be amazing? That would be awesome. So Sean seemed pretty interested in it, so I'm gonna think I'm gonna do it. Listen, if you can get Sean on board to go see a musical. It's not a musical. On Broadway. It's straight up play. It's just a play. Yeah, it's off Broadway. Well, was it? No, it was on Broadway. It says here on Broadway. I checked a whole bunch of off Broadway stuff, so I'm getting myself confused. It's on Broadway. Excellent. Yeah, and we are hotels like in the theater district, so. I think it would be called Spy. What a treat! I know! So that was not super exciting. I mean it is exciting, but it's not like a search where everyone's gonna learn anything. Well, you'll have to follow up though. I will. And tell us if you went and how it went. I would really want to go see it. Very good. Yep, yep. Okay, so now I'm gonna ask you about... groin with a Y. Is there an asterisk next to that? Yes, I'm so glad you asked. Why is there an asterisk? I tried to um... suggest to you to ask about that with the asterisk. Please ask me about this one. There was no asterisk. Oh no. Asterisk. Thank you. It was not needed. It was going to be asked. As soon as you said it, I was like, I'm there. So I want to hear all about it. What does it mean? It's another classic from PictureCross. What? And I have a picture to show you. Picture cross. And I'll put this on Instagram for our listeners so that they can see how ridiculous this picture is. Uh... Oh, we only have this room till 730. Son of a biscuit. Okay. Here's the picture. Whoa, that is making me uncomfortable. A groin, like a real groin. It looks like a penis. Yeah. With a groin, like the, where it attaches to the body in this pixelated picture cross picture. So the kids and I giggled about that for a very long time. And then we sent it to Heather. And then I looked up what it was because I was like, okay, first of all, this is not a Mature game. This is not like a game for mature audiences, you know, whatever So, um So I searched for it and This is really interesting actually. It's a pier or a breakwater. So let's look at the picture. Yeah, I'm trying to picture it. Why did I put it away? There we go. It's a pier or a breakwater made out of rocks and sand usually, like out of natural materials. So here's where it's on, like here's the pier going out and like it widens out where you can stand out there. And then here's the walkway of the pier from the land. Oh, yes. Okay. Um, this is kind of like Magic Eye. It is a little bit. A little bit. Now the interesting part of this is it gets its name from looking like a girl. The origin of the word is that. It was named what it's named because it looks phallic. Oh my gosh. Alright. So we looked that up and we laughed and laughed and laughed and laughed. And then I was like, oh my gosh, it really is like a groin. I mean, it does, the picture does look offensive. That's an interesting factoid you've got there. Yes. G-R-O-Y-N-E. Yes. Okay. I'm going to throw that one up for Sean. And I bet a lot of people who live in coastal places, they already know this. I'm sure they do. I bet you're right. And they're like these Midwesterners in these landlocked states. They'll know shit. And we're like, but do you know about the scissor tail? No. Did you know that it is the Texas bird of paradise bird of paradise? I said bird of prey. Hey, that wasn't right. All right. So I'm going to ask you now about Sean and Scotty lip syncing videos. Okay. So Sean Hayes again, and his husband, apparently during the pandemic. they were just entertaining the masses on Instagram or maybe they had a YouTube channel. I don't know, Grandma's good, good info. And it might actually be, what's that other one that all the kids are using? Facebook? No, that's the Grandma one. How many are there? There's so many. The one where it's the short videos. That I don't- Tick tock. I don't think so because these were like full songs and I was like, they were singing the entire song. Oh. So I feel like it was on YouTube. Like they had a YouTube channel. Anyway, I remember hearing about it during the pandemic from SmartList, because I was listening to SmartList during the pandemic. And I meant to look those up because they were talking about how funny they were. And I forgot. And so then this reminded me and I was like, oh my gosh, I'm going to look those up. And they are pretty funny. I will say I'm impressed that both of them know all of the words to some of the songs they're singing. I they're it's impressive. Interesting. Not only is it entertaining, it's impressive. I was just like, wow, they must listen to music constantly. They are so cute. I bet they are. I encourage you to look them up. They're funny. I will. I think that my kids would like those too, probably. Yeah, they probably would. That would be good bonding time. Yes. Excellent. Okay, okay. So the next one I wanted to ask you about, why do I keep closing my phone? Because I'm a dummy. I want to know fanning the great. Oh no, I want to know about climax springs, Missouri. All right. I discovered a new to me comedy podcast called Small Town Murders. Yes. That probably doesn't sound like a comedy podcast, but it is. Okay. And it's these two comedians. Hi guys. You're hilarious and I love you. And they do episodes that are quite long and in depth about murders that happen in small towns as the name suggests small town murders. Good title. And so since I was going to be spending some time in some rural areas this week, ahead of that, I thought, how interesting would it be if I just looked up and cherry picked episodes from Missouri and Arkansas to, to listen to and see if there are going to be any of these cities or cities. communities, towns, villages, whatever. That I will be passing through or near. And it would be interesting knowing that some murder went down here. Oh, see, man, I'd be freaking myself out. The thing is in small towns, most of the murders are people, you know, Yeah. There's not a lot of stranger murders. Yes. Because nobody's going to go out of their way to these small places to kill somebody. Yeah. So. Climax Springs. Climax Springs, Missouri. Did something happen there? Yes, something did happen there. This is near Lake of the Ozarks, slash Osage Beach. Oh yes. It's a now defunct village there. Climax Springs is? Mm-hmm. They unincorporated a few years ago. Really? Yeah, they just didn't have enough people. Does that go along with your other search of how many people does it make you take? Oh, not related. Topic. How crazy is that? That is weird. Um, so, so anyway, um, it's so it's closer to where I graduated from high school. Here. Yeah. And, um, these guys were having a ball with the name Climax Springs. No pun intended about having a ball. Um, and the perverted sounding names of all the towns in Arkansas and Missouri that tend to pop up on these podcasts. I mean, these aren't ones that popped up on the podcast, but you know, I mean, you're familiar with Flippin Arkansas, Yellowville Arkansas, Blue Ball. I have heard of that one, actually. Nob Noster. Oh, it's one of my faves. Hey, Sean was watching. This is a little bit of a tangent, but not super. Sean was watching a horrible show that I can't stand because there's so much yelling and it's called It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Yes, and it's very yelly. Oh my gosh, it's so yelly. There was a guy, a character on there, wearing a t-shirt that said, big bone lick. It was advertising Big Bone Lick. And I was walking through the room while Sean was watching it and he goes, look, and he paused it. And he's like, look, it's Big Bone Lick. It's like, oh my gosh. We got a good laugh out of that. Big Bone Lick, Kentucky. Was that a state park? It's a state park where mammoths would go to lick the salt licks. And so they found big bones there, and so some genius called it big bone lick. It's perfect. It explains it exactly. But I mean, come on. It's so wrong. In the 21st century, it is, well, even in the 20th century, back when we would camp there. It was very giggle worthy. It still is after all these years I can't say it without smiling at the very least and we used to just call it big bone Yeah, well, yeah as shorthand and if you camp there all the time, you'd be a big boner Gosh! Oh shoot. Anyway. Oh sorry. Okay, so back to Climax Springs. So Climax Springs, they were cracking up at the name and they kept making jizz jokes. Of course. And, um, I can't even remember what the story was about. What the murder was. Because they all started to kind of blur together after a while. I believe this one was, um... a girl, a woman, young woman who got away from her boyfriend, who was kind of into drugs and stuff, because that's all there is to do around some of these areas. And he ended up killing her. Okay. And that's what a lot of this stuff is. A lot of it is just domestic violence. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So did you search Climax Springs to see where it was? Yes, because I was like, I know that's somewhat close. Mm hmm. I didn't know. I the most interesting thing to me there is that they're unincorporated. I didn't know that. And it's not like I have like, you know, Climax Springs isn't dear to my heart or anything. I just you I just didn't know that. Yeah. And it's yeah. No, it's not really a it never was really a town. It was a village. Gotcha. And, and now it's not even that anymore. All right. But, um, yeah, it was, it was a good time. I was, I listened to an episode about Van Buren, Arkansas, where this rich old lady, um, was murdered and her, her case kind of went cold for many years. They couldn't figure out who killed her, but they, everybody assumed it was her son. guess what it was it how'd they figure that out right who done it they still don't know who did it yeah they know who did it oh i don't want to ruin it for anybody oh i'm sorry tell me tell me no i'm not i'm not gonna ruin the mystery but um it wasn't the sun okay that's all you need to know all right and it's kind of tragic because he ended up like drinking himself to death and yeah This got dark in a hurry. Geez. Sorry. Let's lift it back up. Okay. So anyway, I want to know who is Gabby Hayes. Okay. So we can thank Steven Spielberg for this search. Gabby Hayes, oh here I made myself some notes. An American character actor, most famous for Western movie, being a sidekick in Western movies in the thirties and the forties. Oh. So where is this throwback? And so he starred. in several of the hop-along Cassidy films as a sidekick called Windy Halliday. Alright? So, Gabby Hayes is a man. It's a man. His real name is George. George Hayes. Okay. So, he was known for several years as Windy because he was in so many of these movies and that was his character name. Everyone just started calling him Windy. Well, he had like a falling out with the franchise. over salary dispute. And so he left and they said, you can't use the word Wendy. You can't go by Wendy anymore if you're leaving. So he chose Gabby. And so he went on to be very, uh, well known and he, he has two stars on the Hollywood Boulevard walk of fame, one for radio, one for TV. And so if you look up a picture of him, you'll know, you'll know him. He's got. a old Western hat that's flipped up. The front brim is flipped up. And so when I was listening to smart lists, I think smart lists is going to have to sponsor us because I'll talk about them so yes, can podcast sponsor another podcast. Steven Spielberg was talking about an Indiana Jones fight scene. And it's the famous scene where Indy is faced with the guy who's just swinging the sword all around. And he just pulls out his gun and shoots him. Well, Steven Spielberg didn't want him to look like a cold-blooded killer. And so he said, right before you shoot him, wipe your brow with the back of your hand and kind of tip your hat up to where it looks like Gabby, a Gabby Hayes hat. And he said, it's going to make you look more jaunty and comical. And then you shoot the guy and people won't, you know, make it look like you're a cold-blooded murderer. Yeah, it won't look sinister. It will look like a gag. Exactly. And it did. It did. Yeah, because he does the whole, “Ehhhhhhhhh.” Harrison Ford looks kind of ill run down in that particular scene because he was very sick. He had eaten some tainted lamb the night before and it made him really sick, like his food poisoning. And so he came in that morning and he's like, you have got one hour with me and then I'm leaving. And so they were shooting this scene. Steven Spielberg said they had like four pages of scenes to shoot. and they got it all done in an hour. And part of it is because they cut down, he was supposed to fight the sword guy with his bullwhip. And so they were trying to, how can we shorten the scene? And they decided just to shoot the guy instead. Yeah. Great movie moments by accident. Yeah, yeah, that's great trivia. Yeah, it was. I'm gonna go see the Dial of Destiny 2. to see that too because it has Phoebe Waller-Bridge in it and I love her. We're gonna go see it. I'm excited. Clint doesn't really want to see it because he said that Crystal Skulls was so terrible. Crystal Skulls was terrible. And I said, well, you know, Colin Firth has been in a lot of terrible movies too but I always give him another chance. You cannot be a fair weather friend. No. I'm absolutely gonna go see it. I've never seen Crystal Skulls actually. It's- Because it didn't- Appeal to me. Yeah, it was an alien ish thing and I'm not into that. Yeah This one I've watched the trailer for it and it looks really good. It does I'm going yeah I think I'm gonna make Clint go with me. Oh Also a little more info about Gabby Hayes some of his catchphrases that I think you will be familiar with are Your Durn Tittin You're Durn Tittin and young whippersnapper Both of those phrases might have been used this past week by my in-laws at some point. I say whippersnapper. Oh, yes. Constantly. Yeah. Utes. The Utes or these young whippersnappers. Yep, yep. Get off my lawn. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Excellent. That's Gabby Hayes for you. George Gabby Hayes. That is great information and good trivia. I love it. And I do recognize him. I looked him up. Yeah, he's totally familiar. Definitely. Ever. You know, look him up people because you'll see him and you'll say, Oh yeah, that guy. He's probably in. I was going to look up how movies, how many movies he's actually in, but Google seemed to think that it was so, so many. So I just didn't look. He had to have been in a lot of TV shows too. He was. I think we should move on to the third degree. Let's do it. Okay. I love the third degree. Third degree. In this segment, we ask some very specific questions about each other's searches. I'm gonna ask you, which search was the most surprising for you, the answer to your search? Which search was the most surprising? I would say ox versus bull. Oh shoot. Okay. Tell me about that one, because I didn't ask you about that one. Well, I mean, there's lots of things you didn't ask me about. I know it's true. My list was humongous. You did have a large list. Um. A groin of a list, if you will. Did that make sense? No. Did I make it work? No. Okay. But, you know, whatever. A long groin of a list. A list that could fill a groin. Oh, yeah. Okay. Ox, what'd you say? Ox versus bull. Bull. We were playing the trivia game. I should have known that. Yeah. And one of the questions was, what is the difference between an ox and a bull? Oh, okay. Do I know this? Do you think I would know the answer to this? Maybe. You're a country girl. So I mean a bull. No, I don't know. Okay. Well, I was surprised to find out that they are the same species. I thought- I was just getting ready to say they're different species. I thought that oxen and bulls, bulls were two different animals. Yeah. But it turns out they're both cows. Okay. Um, or cattle. Oxen or larger. Um, oxen can be male or female. Ehh, wha- yes. And they have been... um, sterilized. And a bull is always male. Yes. Obviously. And has not been sterilized. Because, you know, there's still- that's what bulls do. Bulls make baby cows. Yes. Also known as calves. Calves! Um, so an oxen... So why would you call it? I don't know. My whole life I have thought that they were two completely different animals. Me too. Huh. And in fact. So maybe oxen aren't necessarily bigger than bulls. I just made it a six. See, I'm drawing on Paul Bunyan here. Oh yeah, Paul Bunyan with the blue ox. Babe. My father-in-law, who is a very, very smart man, and knows a lot of things and does letter reading, he also thought they were different species. To the point where he said that card's wrong. He said the game was wrong. That is bold! Which is why I looked it up. You are something else. I am something else. Is it? Is it any wonder why they love me so? So I looked it up because he was like, well, I guess the card's wrong. And then my mother in law, whatever he says, she agrees with. And she was like, yeah, I guess so. And I was like, oh hell no. We're not just going to let this go. That is the correct answer. If the card is wrong, fine. But let's find out if the card is wrong. Let's find out for sure. Let's not just take Ppaw's word for it. So what was the actual question on the card? That was the question. What is the difference between an ox and a bull? So what is the difference? Nothing. Oh, the bull. The bull is not sterilized. And the ox is sterilized. And can be male or female. Oh, okay. I'm sorry. I'm really tired. But oxen usually are male. Okay. But they can be female as well. You know what? It's interesting because I just assumed oxen were male. I didn't I never even thought about it. Because they have horns. Oh, but I know female cows can have horns. See? This is a I've learned a lot today. I mean, you could take a girl out of the country or you can put a girl in the country. We did have a lot of cows, but we did not have oxen. Well, let me tell you, it was learning experience. And so I looked it up because I was like, I wanna hear what people. We're not just gonna say, okay, the card must be wrong. If that's the case, that's what I'm gonna start saying with every game that I lose. Great, oh, the card's wrong. Card's wrong. So I Googled it and that's the answer that they gave me was that they are the same species. They are just. different variety of speech. Like you can have a Holstein cow, or you can have, you know... An Angus. An Angus or a Hereford or... Hereford. Hereford? Is that what they're called? What are they? I mean... Hereford? Hereford is how I normally say it. Yes. Or, yeah. Hereford. I think I was thinking of Herefordshire. Or Heffer is a female cow. Heffer is a female cow. because I've been called that. We are talking about cows a lot. You think I've never talked to you about cows before? It was, anyway, so that was the answer. Did Pea Pocket put in his place? So I said, I read it. And Uh, we all learned something and he was the only one who wasn't really excited about learning. He wasn't excited about learning because he was wrong. I was wrong. I was wrong too. Cause I thought the exact same thing. Yeah. Cause when he said, uh, they're two completely different animals. And I said, yeah, that's what I've always thought. So, I mean, it's not like he was the only one who didn't know. Right. He just wasn't super excited about learning that they were different. He just doesn't like to be wrong. Yes. Sorry. Um, anyway, I'm used to showing my ass. Oh, me too. Oh my gosh. So it's so much better. I told Sean just, just yesterday. I said, I would much rather look like an idiot right now upfront than for someone to like a few days down the road, go, uh. you were wrong. And I say, I know. Or even like double down. Yes, doubling down. I did that for a while when I was younger. Yeah. It never pans out. No. Everyone knows you're lying. Well, not just that, but you when you are proven wrong, you know, even if you think you're right and you're not really lying, you just really think you're right. Well, that's true. Yeah. After you've doubled down when you are proven wrong, you look 10 times worse than if you had just said, you know, actually, I don't know. I don't know. Oh, really? Maybe I am wrong. I will be the first to say, you know what? I have no idea. Yeah. It's, I have, I used to hate that. I used to, I did not like being wrong. And nobody likes being wrong. I get that from my dad though, cause my dad is like people. She's never wrong. No. And that will go all through me all day long. And so I kind of picked it up because. Yeah. I mean, especially when it's like when it's like, they say something. And that's the end of discussion. Yes. It's said like that, like the end. Right. Like, oh, that card's wrong. The end. You know what? He walked out of the room. He said that card's wrong. And he left. Mic drop. Yep. That's how that's how he is. Like he makes a declaration and that's end of discussion. Yeah. And so I was like, I don't think so. See, that's why they'll play that don't play in BB's world. That is why Dad and I were always argued because it didn't play with me. Still doesn't. And Dad's favorite phrase was because I said so. That. If you, even to this day, that will just make my blood boil. I really hate, well, I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree when it means I'm right, you're wrong. Right. I mean, I'm asking you a question. Don't tell me because you said so. Right. You're either telling me you don't know the answer or you're not up for discussion, which as a parent, I get it. Yeah, sometimes you have to just say. Sometimes you just have to say, but I hated that. I hated that as a kid. Okay, I want to know. Which search? resulted in your spending money. Oh! if any. Tell you which one. So I might buy tickets for Good Night Oscar. Correct. That might come around, but I actually literally spent money and downloaded Blister in the Sun. Oh my gosh, I was gonna ask who sang Blister in the Sun cause I gotta know. The Violent Femmes. Oh, that's right, Violent Femmes. Sean and I were at a ball game last weekend and they played it and like in between innings, like they were switching out, you know. And I was like, oh, I can't sing it. Oh, I want to sing it. I know. It's super catchy song. Like a blister in the sun. Yes. And so then I was singing it to Sean. I was trying to make him feel embarrassed. And you know, if you wiggle around enough at the ball game, the camera will get on you. And so I was trying to get Sean on camera because he did, I don't want to be on camera. They didn't see me. But I was like singing, I know like all the words to that song. And I didn't know that I knew all the words. Oh my gosh, that goes with another question I have that I could have asked. What search confirms something you already knew but had forgotten? Oh, that's a good question. That would be the blister in the sun. It would have to be. I didn't know any of this other stuff. I did not know the other stuff. I'm going to share with you something that I found super interesting though. Well, you should have put an asterisk by it. I'll do that next time. I didn't know that was the rule, but I got it now. That's a new thing that I decided today. What if I just like drew big arrows at it? You could do that too. Okay. I'll try the asterisk next time and see if it produces any questions. Is it about the bomb? No, but that was also super interesting. Do you want to know about the bomb? I do. Bouncing buddy. So a bouncing Betty bomb is a landmine that when it's triggered, it literally launches into the air about a meter and then it explodes. So it explodes in the air. It explodes in the air and it's full of like, you know, what I wrote it down. Um, nails and shit. Yeah. It's like. It's, you know, steel shrapnel, but ball bearings is full of ball bearings. And so these were really psychologically horrifying because they tended to maim and not kill. And so people were very scared of them. They, um, were used during world war II. Also Vietnam, like these are super old. They started in world war II. If I read this right. Um, But the name Bouncing Betty was coined by American infantrymen. It's actually called the German S-Mine. Oh, is that right? Did I say that right? Yeah. German S-Mine. Oh my gosh. That is horrifying. It is horrifying. Cause yeah, I would much rather be killed than made. And I did read another article that said that they can shoot out the shrapnel like up to 460 feet. It was terrifying. I didn't know that. And I had, I have heard the term bouncing Betty from mash, of course, because of the luscious, but they were having stretcher races. So they had, they put a nurse on a stretcher and then the doctor was pushing them like in a race around, you know, the camp. And so one of the names, the racing names was bouncing. And it probably had something to do with nurses with chest bouncing. Oh, probably so. Because you know, it was mash. Probably so. So anyway, yeah, that was probably in season one if I had to guess. But what something I also didn't, I just, the Vietnam stuff is super interesting to me. Really quick. Why did the Americans call Viet Cong Charlie? Yes. So the U S often called the Viet Cong, the VC. Yes. Okay. We all know that. And so in military alphabet code, that's Victor Charlie. And then it just got shortened to Charlie. Oh, how about that? See, now that's something that I knew, but had forgotten because I've watched that documentary series and see, I'm, I didn't catch that. I didn't catch that in the series, but I looked it up. Oh, yeah. I didn't. Then maybe I did never know that. Oh good. That makes me feel a little bit better. See. You're worldly and knowledgeable. No, it makes me feel better that I just didn't forget. Like I never knew that. Okay. Oh, anyway. Yeah. So I spent money on blister in the sun and I listened to it about six times now. I do love that song. Oh, shit. Did it again. Sorry. You just, it was just a little bit. And it wasn't great singing. No one is just saying I was blessed. Yeah, that's true. Um. You know what we need to do now? Tell me.
