Okay. What ya doing over there? I'm being lazy and I'm hen picking. Hen picking. Hen pecking. Yep. You're doing it so angrily. I think I'm angry. I prefer the library. Okay. I understand. This may sound amazing. (Theme song). Welcome to episode 35 of Delete This History, a podcast by two besties of a certain age looking for answers. We're your hosts, Brea Brown. And Cara Burch. Oh, mouth sounds, sorry. Do you want me to say that? And Cara Burch. Ah! Ha ha ha. Smack-a-re-no. It's fine. Gross. I think it's beautiful. How are you? Great. Okay, let's move on. Ha ha ha. This week can really just kiss my ass. Hit it where the good Lord split it. Oh man. Tell everybody how many searches we have. Between us we almost have a whole episode. Caleb, we were so busy this week. That I only have three searches. Oh by the way, Caleb wants us to know. Oh what? Danny Trejo. Oh! I did tell him that we thought of it as we were walking out. That's it. We. You're so gracious. Of the library. You remembered it. She yelled it in the middle of the library. So, it didn't take that long to remember, but then we didn't follow up. People have been yelling at the episode. I yell at podcasts all the time when the hosts are like, what is that called when blah or they say a word wrong and I'm like, no. Isn't it funny how easy it is as a listener to just come up with the answer and then you're sitting here and you're like, mm-hmm. No. Words. That guy. You can see the person so clearly. Yeah, Caleb's like, he's a legend. I'm like, I know he is. I'm not debating that at all. We said machete, Caleb. But I said getting old sucks. Yeah, you just wait. It sucks so bad. Ugh. I'm, you know how many years old I am? How many? I'm, um, talk to people outside of the x-ray waiting room area or waiting area like years old, like other people waiting. Oh my gosh. I'm that many years old. What you talk about. Well what they're there for what you in for no I didn't ask. But it was kind of a cluster there today. It's a Friday. I'm telling you what, X-ray and lab work, it's always nuts. I don't think it matters what day it is. It's insane. And so anyway, it was kind of a cluster and it was a little bit unorganized and they were not giving instructions to people. It was like, they were acting like everybody's done this before, everybody knows what they're doing, you know. Do what you need to do and they would just say, “Okay go in here getting a gown Blah blah blah,” and then they wouldn't tell people what to do next. Lame. Oh gosh. You know what I mean? Mm-hmm, so Everybody was very confused about what they were supposed to be doing. Did you start telling did you get it figured out and then start directing people? I just said I just said I don't think it matters what you do you can wait in the dressing area or you can wait out here or whatever. All right. Because one lady was like, the instructions just weren't very clear. And I said, I don't think there were any instructions. Oh. Anyway, so one of my bookmarks would be then. Oh yes. To skip it. Skip x-rays. Do you ever have the thing that happens when you're always put in the same room at the doctor's office or the similar room? Yes, they call it Cara's room. And then, and then. Another time you go in and they put you in a different room. And so when you go to leave, you're like, “I don't know?” You're totally disoriented. That exact same thing happened to me. This last time I went to the doctor, I was like, “This isn't the normal room.” But it looks the same on the inside of the room. Yes, it does. So, then when you step out and you're not in that part of the hallway that you normally are, it's completely disorienting. Yes. Well, do you have any bookmarks that you would recommend to people? I do have some good bookmarks. Okay. Okay, first of all, Bloom Chic. Oh yeah. It's plus sizes. Yes. Real plus sizes. Not “These clothes were designed for skinny people, but we made them bigger.” Yes. They're actually made for bigger people and they're so comfortable. And I don't know about the quality. They're probably going to fall apart just like any clothes nowadays. You can't really get decent. No, everything is throwaway. They're crap. Yeah. It's super annoying. If you can afford them, if I can afford them, they don't last, but, um, but they've got like dresses and all their dresses have pockets. So, I bought, I call them moomoos because they are pretty big, but I bought like three more dresses, like maxi dresses. Nice. With pockets for the summer. Did, is that what you, were you wearing an outfit from Bloom Chic last week? Oh yeah, my little top. Yes. I meant to tell you that you looked so cute. Oh, thanks. It was. It was such a cute outfit. Thanks. Yeah. And they're just like, they're stylish. Yeah. It's cute. It's cute stuff. But affordable, I'm telling you. And they're not, I mean, they can sponsor us if they want to, they're not. Please. But I have just loved the, I got my whole summer wardrobe there. Nice. I need summer clothes. Yeah. Apparently I am. What's the word. When I put my summer clothes away last year. I don't have enough closet space to keep winter and summer and fall all out. Right. So, I have to pack away my seasonal clothes. So, I must have done a purge when I packed away summer clothes last year because when I got my summer clothes out I was like, “Where are my clothes?” I have like, you've probably seen me wear this shirt 9000 times because it's the only one I have. And at the time it was a great idea because why pack it away if you're just going to get rid of it. Right, not only was I tired of it, some of it was worn out. I mean, some went in the trash. It was in such bad shape. There you go. So bad. But then you have to put a note in your phone or something that says, “Buy new clothes. ” But I hate shopping for clothes. I know. It's the worst. Bloom Chic is fun. All right. I do it all online. I'll try it. I'll bookmark it. And their jeans are comfortable. And the pockets in the jeans, Cara, you can fit your cell phone in it. Wow. They're big. They're like man pockets. You know though, I'm having trouble with jeans everywhere. I want jeans that go down to my ankles and the style right now is short jeans or rolled up jeans. Mama don't want that. Yeah. I want jeans that go all the way down to my ankles. You know what though? I bought some boot cut jeans because I wanted long jeans and that's kind of what you have to buy. I know. And it feels ridiculous. Yeah. That flappiness. Like so much material. I know. Flappiness at my ankles is ridiculous. Flip, flap, flip, flap. Flippy, flappy, here comes Brea. But you know, they cover my ankles. I bet you could get a straight cut. It's not skinny leg. I can't find any straight cut. Oh geez. I have looked everywhere. If anyone has. recommendation where I can buy straight leg, yeah, big ass jeans. Please, let me know. Indeed, and you're not a tall person so you should be able to find jeans that are. You would think that the short jeans would just be regular jeans on me. Yeah. But they're not. Oh. They look stupid because they hit at a weird spot. Oh yeah. You know what I mean? Yeah. It's almost like I grew over the summer and went back to school with my old jeans. It’s unintentional shortness. Where's the flood? Okay. And then my other bookmark for today was all creatures, great and small on PBS. If people, if you have not watched this, now this is the new version because there have been lots of versions done of this, but it's based on a true story, like a memoir of this veterinarian in the North of England. So nice. So beautiful. The scenery is beautiful. It's a wholesome kind of show, but it's also so funny and sweet. And they have a little bit of, you know, innuendo every now and then, but it's cute. And it always makes me cry. Every time. But in a good way. Yep. Yeah, so I've got one episode left in this season. I'm holding off watching it because I don't want it to be over for this season because I like it so much. It is so good. I love that show when I was a child My dad had all of James Harriot's books. Yes, and that's how I first learned about them and I tried to read them but I was too little they didn't make any sense. Yeah, I mean then when I saw the first TV Series I was like, oh and we watched those I think they were from the 70s maybe Early 80s. Yeah. Yeah, we watched those PBS. Yeah, but the new ones are super good. You're right Oh my gosh, I've bookmarked those for sure all those actors. They're all amazing. I love tricky woo-woo. (dying). The rich lady who treats her dog like, like a child, a tricky woo woo, and then she calls everybody uncle. Uncle James. “Go to Uncle James.” I love the vet, the main, the hired, he owns the practice, I can't think of his name right now but, and I didn't realize that, I can't think of any of their names. The housekeeper. I didn't realize who she was. It took me several episodes to realize who that actress was because they've got her so buttoned up and her hair's all pulled back. I was like, oh, I know who that is now. You guys, it's a very good show. We could just sit here and talk about that show. We could all day. Let's do it. So what about your bookmarks for this week? They're a little bit lame, but I'd like to recommend to everyone to bookmark the Cherry Limeade at Brahms. Okay. Delicious. I love a cherry limeade. If you need a little change or shake up from your sonic limeade, I kind of like these a little bit better because they're more limey. I wonder if Culver's has a limeade. Oh, I don't know. Good question. I bet they do. I bet they'd make one for you. We could do like a taste test, a blind taste test. Which one is the best? I would love to do that. I think that should be my job, my full-time job. Me too. Okay. So cherry limeade at Brahms. Yes. That's all I have. Nuh-uh. Well, I do have kind of one. I didn't write it down, but I do kind of have one in the back of my head. You're going to make fun of me, or maybe you won't. I don't know. You're my friend. You might not. I'll try not to. You can if you want to, though. Remember last week when I told you I was waiting on a book from the library? Yes. That book is Twilight. Oh. I've never read any of those books. And what prompted me to read this book was I was looking around on Kindle, trying to find a new book to read, blah, blah. And I ran across, you know, her series and all the books that Stephanie Meyer has written. Did you know? But she has rewritten Twilight. from Edward's point of view. Yes, okay, I didn't know that. And I was like, “Whaaaaat!” So, then I was kind of like, well, I kind of like to read the first one and then read whatever that would be the fifth one, maybe. Yeah, I see what you're saying. Yeah. Just out of curiosity. But you know what? I have to say. So my bookmark is if you're interested in the Twilight series or whatever. The book is better than the movie. Oh, for sure. The book makes so much more sense. There were so many questions I had in that stupid movie. It's so bad. Ha ha. But there were so many things that I was like, “Why are they acting like that? Or why are they doing that?” The book really has, it makes more sense to me. Yeah, I agree. But I will say, I think Edward is a jerk. Oh my gosh. I'm just kidding. In this book, he makes fun of her so much. He's mean to her. I don't remember that like he's always like laughing and saying, “Of course you fell,” or like I don't know. He's just a jerk. He's kind of arrogant and I'm kind of over it. Well, he's like five billion years old yeah, he is anyway, no spoilers he was born in 1906 in Chicago. I just read that part. Oh really? Wow anyway so that's my bookmark. So, he's not that old, I guess. He's not super old. But, hmm. Not as old as Carlisle. Did you read the books? Yes, unfortunately I sure did. Did you like them? No, I sure did not. Okay, what did you not like about them? Pretty much everything. I mean, don't get me wrong. I don't, I'm not, I don't. They're not the best books I've ever read, but they're certainly not the worst. I, no, no. The tour. No, that's they're not the worst books, but they're young adult. Yeah, but I've read a lot of young adult literature That I like and enjoy and I feel like I don't know. I felt like they were a little bit infantile I felt like they were too They were pretty immature even for young adult. That whole chastity purity kind of vibe. I don't I don't like that I think it makes people feel bad about themselves when they are just like normal functioning human beings who have urges and desires and then you have a book like that that's like I don't know where it's all like taboo and. I guess I haven't gotten to that point. That's how that's just the vibe I got from it. It was very purity. Oh purity vibey, okay, one of my favorite young adult authors is Cynthia Voigt and Also, Robin McKinley. I've talked about Robin McKinley before. Yes, you have. I love her with a passion. Cynthia Voigt's really good too. Really good. I have a fast fact follow-up. Oh, good. Or a follow-up fast fact, however you would like to word it. All right. An FFF. Last week, you told us that Conway Twitty's stage name was. Oh yeah. Conway Twitty. Yeah. His real name. Harold Lloyd Jenkins. Sounds like a, an assassin. Well, it doesn't have that certain ring that Conway Twitty has. No, but it does sound like somebody who tried to kill somebody outside of a theater. I had a stuffed dog named Jenkins when I was a kid. Oh that's cute. I named it myself. Is it like Jinkies? No. Jinkies. It's always Jenkins. Okay, sorry. And don't get it wrong. All right. All right, well we're not here to trash and or extol the virtues of Twilight. Although we did. We did a little bit, but I'm sure there are podcasts that are all about Twilight. Oh my gosh. And this ain't it. Nope, nopey nope. Nerp. What are we here for Cara? We are here to discuss our internet search histories for the week. And we do that with The Reading of the Lists. I get to go first this week. Do not blink or you will miss it. Okay. I have three whole things on my reading of the list list. Ready? Number one, adding -uh to the end of sentences for emphasis, Gen Z. All will be revealed. Number two, furunculosis in fish. Ooh. Number three, jaw harp. That it? I had a jaw harp, I was scared. Did you really? Oh my gosh. Yes, I did. All right. Now you also don't blink because I also have three searches this week. SAD. We got lots going on here people. Number one, who invented chocolate chips? Oh, number two, why was Terry Bradshaw in Springfield, Missouri? Number three, the origin of father's day. You're just going to skip right over mother's day. F that. You know what? I got an email from Etsy. This is a bookmark. Oh, okay. I got an email from them and said, would you like for us to reframe from sending you Mother's Day emails and recommendations? Like maybe my mom had passed away and I didn't wanna see like all of the advertisements. And I was like, that is probably the kindest thing I have ever seen from a company. That's very thoughtful. I thought so too. I've never seen anything like that. That is very thoughtful. So, anyway, it made me think of you actually. I'd be like, yes, Mother's Day is canceled. Except that you're a mom. That's true. But still, Mother's Day is canceled, because I don't have a mom anymore. Somebody at work the other day just on that same topic said to me, well, what would your mother say? about something. Oh no. I said, “I don't know, she dead.” (dying). I just said it just like that. “I don't know, she dead.” And he was like, “Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry!” And he felt so bad. And I just started laughing. Cause I was like, dude. He didn't know. Well, he did. Oh no. But he was, it was just a- Yes. -it was just a form of speech, you know, like, it was just an expression. What would your mother say? Oh no. I had to be a dick and made him feel make him feel bad about it but- He probably won't do that again. -but I don't feel bad about it. You know what I mean? Like I was like, “I'm cool, dude.” I mean, yeah, it's been a while and you know like we all live and we all die. It's true. It's just way life goes. You know, you're not wrong I've written songs about it. Okay Cara, Yo. Now it's time to play a little game. We like to call SEARCH ME! Where we each pose one question to each other and see if we can answer based only on the reading of the list. Uh-huh. Today you're playing for… Yeah, yeah, yeah. Fancy Cakes! Oh shut the front door. I feel like it's a fancy cakes week. You bet it is I mean every week is but especially this week. I would agree with that I feel like every day this week has been a Monday Oh my gosh. It has been so insane. It has been a very long week. And yeah, just, do you ever get the urge to just go, (angry noises). No. Oh, okay. Because then I wouldn't be able to eat the fancy cakes. Well, I could, I mean, you can still lick the cellophane, but you never have an urge just to smash like a Swiss cake roll or something like I've never done it. Cause like you said, I ruined my snack, but. It's so tempting to just smash it and see what would happen. Well, you could just buy a box for smashing. You could have a smashing box and an eating box. True. And then have two boxes to eat. One would be smashed, one would not. Right, I guess. Anyway, sorry. OK, here we go. OK, fancy cakes. I want you. Which search led me into a deep, deep lake of gross pictures of swimming creatures? I know what this is. Because it just grossed me out when you said it. And you're going to make me say the word. Yeah, I am. Furunculosis in fish. You got it. Just the word, Furunculosis. It sounds like you need to see a doctor quickly. Well, you do. Because it's a bacterial disease that causes raised muscle lesions and skin boils in fish, primarily cold water species such as trout, and it's caused by the bacterium. Okay, here's where I get to try to say something. Aromonas salmonaceida. And has been reported globally, particularly in hatcheries. Oh no. So, have you ever been to the hatchery at Bennett Spring? 100%. Multiple times. Have you ever been to the section where they have all the fish that are like effed up? The effed up fish section? Yeah, like there's- I don't know what that means. You can see some occasionally throughout the hatchery. You'll see a fish that doesn't look right. I don't- I don't guess I ever noticed. But then they have a whole section where they have them kind of, they try to keep track of the ones that ain't looking right and they sequester them into a certain area. So, one time, and I can tell this story because my mom is no longer with us and so she will not have to suffer the indignity of the story I'm about to tell. But there's nothing to do in that area. Yeah. Camp. Right. And so when we would have people visit us from out of town, we would always go to the Bennett Spring Fish Hatchery to show them the big fish. Okay. I mean, lame. But this is what we did. And one time one of my cousins was visiting and she is a hoot and I love you Lori. And Lori probably remembers this happening but they were visiting. And this was before, I think this was even before she and her husband had kids. And her kids are in like college now. So, this was a long ass time ago and we went to the hatchery and we were looking at some of the sick ones. And then of course, there are some of the humongous trout, right? They're huge. And so Lori who's from Michigan, so she has kind of a Northern accent. And she would go, “Woo, Shamu.” And we were just dying. We just thought that was hilarious that she kept calling the big trout Shamu. And so we were laughing so hard and my mom got the giggle so hard that one time Lori said, woo, Shamu. And my mom, my mom laugh farted. Oh no. So, then it became a joke in our family. Woo, Shamu! [Fart noise] So stupid. But these are the, you know, these are the stories that families are made of. Oh my gosh. And this is how you make it fun to go to the fish hatchery. Hey Lori, what'd you do this weekend? I went and looked at some sick fish in Missouri. And my aunt farted. I'm getting at the sick ones. (dying) They were the most interesting ones because I mean who cares about looking at thousands of fish in a hatchery. Well, they all look the same but then you go. Look at the freak fish. Did you yeah, you can feed the freak fish. Oh, well, I mean just a regular. Yeah, yeah, you can feed them and they come up to the top and yeah. That's what was entertaining to us kids was you know, we would feed them, but I wonder if my parents steered us away from the sick fish. They probably did. There were some whose eyes would be like bulging. Oh my word, did they have phrenonchelosis? Yeah, yes. When I read this I was like, oh my gosh, those are the freak fish at the hatchery. Ah, anyway. Were they trying to heal them? Like get them better? No. So, why were they keeping them in a tub? I don't know. I think they maybe just didn't want to euthanize them. Those fish could have been suffering. Maybe. And maybe they were studying them. Maybe they were studying like, how does this spread? How, you know, well, no, that's, that's legit. You know, that's legit. I don't know. Is the freak fish pond still there at Bennett Springs? I don't know. We haven't been there in so long. You and I should. We got to take a field trip, take a trip and we got to woo shamu it. Yeah, we should. Do you want to fart when you laugh or do you want me to do it? I can totally do it. OK, OK. Carry on. Carry on. You know me. I can. You know me, I'm always up for a good laugh fart. Anyway, you get those fancy cakes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They look, nevermind. You have ruined fancy cakes forever. The pattern on them. Stop, I'm supposed to eat these later. You will. I still will. You won't care. No, I won't. Brea. Yeah? Your question today. Oh, wait a second. I have to tell you what your prize is. Yes, you do. Now. Your prize. If you win it today. You will not be leaving on a jet plane, but you will have sunshine on your shoulders because you'll be happy with this CD. Get out of here. The best of John Denver live. Oh my gosh. That's going to Jacki if I win it. I'm not sure what this is for. It was recorded in 1995 and it says it was in recorded in a studio. Oh no, recorded at his wildlife concert in February of 1995. Isn't that right before he died? I don't know. So, this was a, this is a live recording of the wildlife concert from February of 95. Wow. I bet that is amazing. I bet that's a collector's item. It could be actually. Um, that came from the Beverly Burch music collection. Excellent. All right. Your question. Yep. Which of my searches this week was inspired by one of your searches from last week? I bet you know without even looking. Why was Terry Bradshaw on Springfield, Missouri? Did you find out why? You. Bet your butt I did. Yes! Are you ready? Yes. It turns out you are going to laugh your ass off. Well, maybe not. Sorry, Terry come on our show. Terry, he has a regular gig planned in Branson once a month beginning April 18 at the Clay Cooper Theater. Oh, that's right. He sings. He will be performing a live show about his life combining music and comedy. He's doing standup now too. Oh, okay. So, he was in the area because he's prepping for the beginning of his show, which was the first show was last night. Oh my gosh. Yes. What else I learned is that his wife Tammy is originally from Rogersville, Missouri. Get outta here. I will not. She is also a lifelong Chiefs fan and she even named one of their Colts, Mahomes. They live in Oklahoma. Also ties to the area, one of his daughters played volleyball and basketball for two Missouri universities. Oh. I found Tammy's Instagram account, his wife, and so there's like a, they had a post showing all of the dates that he'll be in Branson, and it said back by popular demand, and I was like, “What? He's done this before?” So, I did some more digging. And I found out that he did this back in the summer of 2021, but it was just like maybe four or five times during the summer. Also at the Clay Cooper Theater, but apparently he was so popular, they've invited him back. And this show, it runs through like almost Christmas or something. Whoa. Once a month. Is he retiring from announcing or whatever? Apparently not. Interesting. But they love the Ozarks, especially the Branson area. Oh, and so they just have some ties there. Anyway, that's why Terry was in Springfield. Oh, well, now we know. Yeah. Oh, we got to go see that show. There was a little clip of him. Um. They were talking about- they're asking him why he's in the show and he said, “I guess the first time he did he told some jokes and there was no laughter,” this is him telling the story. He’s got to die onstage, And he was like, “What is happening?” He said the lights came up and I saw the audience and he said there were oxygen tanks everywhere they were hearing aids everywhere he said, “This is my crowd!” He said they couldn't hear at all. Anyway. They just wanted to see him standing up there. I don't know. I don't know. Okay, but anyway, he loves the Diablo burger at Lindbergh's. Tell your co-worker who shared a butt seat with him. Yes, that's why he was here. Oh my gosh. That's where our summer outing needs to be for our office. Oh my word. And your co-worker has an inn to talk to him. Yeah, like I sat in your chair- Butt buddies, that will go over really well. Tell him to do that for sure. I mean, that's one way to break the ice. Well, Terry would probably laugh at that. He probably would. He's wild. That's so funny. Did you know they had a TV show called the, uh, ‘The Bradshaw Bunch’? Like a reality TV show. Oh yes I do know about this in the recesses of my mind. I, I did a lot of research on this. Yeah. I fell down a lot of rabbit holes. I mean I never watched that show. No. Now I did like him on that show, that travel show. Yes. With the Fonz, Henry Winkler. Henry Winkler. William Shatner. The Boxer. George Foreman. George Foreman. That was one of the best shows I've ever seen. Freaking hilarious. What was that called? Caleb call us and tell us. People are yelling at the at their, I almost said their radios. Like they're sitting around their radios in their front rooms. I told Sean I would never forget the name of that show because it was one of my favorite ones. And I think you still can watch it. It was on NBC. It might be, yeah, you might be able to see it on Peacock or even on Amazon somewhere. You might be able to find it. I'm gonna look up the name of this. It's gonna make me crazy because that needs to be, ‘Better Late Than Never’. That's what it was called. So, funny. Oh my gosh. I love Henry Winkler. He can do no wrong. Are you kidding me? He's one of my faves. Big Chiefs fan, by the way. Yes, he is. Because all the best people are. Yeah. Speaking of the best, I have the best of John Denver live in my hot little hand. Okay, let's enjoy that. Let's look at this. Rocky Mountain High. Obviously. Yeah, country roads. Duh. Back home again. I don't know that one. I'm sure it's good. I guess. He'd rather be in Colorado. Oh, that's a good one. Really? OK. Matthew. Uh. Sunshine on my Shoulders. Of course. Darcy Farrow. Wild Montana Skies. A Medley. Leaving on a Jet Plane. Yeah. And Goodbye Again. Bed on the Blues. Oh, I don't know what that is. I don't either. I'd rather be a cowboy. Oh, that's a good one. Also called Ladies Chains. Fly Away. That's a good one. I'm Sorry. I don't know that one. Poems, Prayers, and Promises. Or do you say poet? Poem? Poem. I can't say it the way some people say it. Anyway. And finally, last but not least, Calypso. I was going to say Calypso needs to be on there. Yeah. Jacki. You enjoy the hell out of that. We'll be listening to this on the way to Charleston. Oh yes. That would be great. Oh, I don't have a CD player in my car. Well, I noticed on your, ‘But What About This One’ last week that you were looking up rental vans? Oh, we're not doing that. Oh, it's super expensive. Oh, it was a good idea though. Yeah. And Michaela and Caleb, they aren't going for the same amount of time that we are. We're going to be there a little bit longer, I think. Okay. It ain't gonna work. I was trying real hard. I don't blame you that's going to be difficult. I was trying real hard. Okay anyway. Now that we both won some prizes. It's time for shared history. Where we tell you our DTH besties what we searched this week why we searched it and what we learned. Yeah, yeah, yeah! Not very much this week. No, I got two things my first thing is Speaking of music. Yep. Jaw harp Yes. Somebody mentioned a jaw harp on something. I can't remember. This is a great story so far and I Was like what the heck is that I was thinking maybe it was like a harmonica. Yeah. I was like mmm. I don't think that doesn't sound like what he's talking about. So, this is an instrument consisting of a flexible metal or bamboo tongue or reed attached to a frame and you put it up to your mouth and you flick the reed. And then other names for it are mouth harp, Ozark harp, juice harp, Merchunga. Oh, I've not heard that. That's interesting. And also the very un-PC sounding and completely random Jew’s harp. Yes. Which I think was somebody thinking juice harp was Jew’s harp and it stuck because whatever. It doesn't make any sense. It has nothing to do with Jewish people. Yeah. Yeah, I don't get it either. There's no even like history where Jewish people were, you know, first of all, they're not a monolith. But anyway, where that was historically made by Jewish people- NOTHING. Please don't call it that. I think it was just a misunderstanding, but it's really one of the most popular names for it. I know. That's how I first, when I was a kid, that's how it was introduced to being by my grandparents. And then later on, my dad was calling it a mouth harp. There you go. But Ozark Harp, how interesting is that? It's in a family of instruments called the lamellophones. Oh. And it makes a sound by using a thin vibrating plate called a lamella or a tongue. Another example of a lamellophone is a comb. Like, you know, people who could play the comb. Yes. But the jaw harp is very similar to that, because you're just plucking that one thing. Yeah. So, Cara, as a jaw harp player, tell me, how do you make it make different pitches? You have to move your mouth. So, your mouth is up against it. And so as you open and close your mouth, you're opening and closing the space that the sound is vibrating in. And so that's how it makes different sounds. And then I watched a YouTube video that I would like to share with everybody. Yes, please. Okay. Was I wrong? No, but he was talking about how you would breathe a certain way too. Like how you breathe would also project the sound a certain way. Hmm. (Audio clip plays). That is almost exactly what it sounds like in this group that I listened to. I can't say it. Oh, why not? Cause I think I'm going to mispronounce it, but the name of the group is maybe OTA-, OTA- can it's spelled O T Y K E N. They are awesome. And they use a mouth harp. I'll have to check that out. Otyken. Now this guy is Bebcorp Harpary. Oh. On YouTube. He was pretty good. Bebcorp Harpery. I watched multiple of his videos so I wanted to give him credit for that. But yeah, like I couldn't even make those rhythms that he was making. There's no way I could get my tongue to do that. Whatever you could do. No, much less then I have to think about plucking that thing at the same time. Nope. Oh, I bet you could just practice and get back with us. I'll practice it in the shower. Perfect. While I'm driving, I'll just be going, yo diddle do, dee do, do do, do do, dee do. You just did it. You give yourself so little credit on what you're able to do. I go diddle do, dee do do. It's amazing. Okay. Anyway. Giving you a mouth harp. I know what I'm getting for Christmas. Heck yeah. I didn't wait that long. Anyway, this was Wikipedia and YouTube. That's cool! What made you look that up? I can't remember what the heck I was watching. Oh, I'm sorry. It was a YouTube video, I'm sure. I'm sorry. I forgot you had said that. I can't remember. I watched so many things. Half watching, half not watching. Oh, I understand. Yeah, yeah. Who knows? Who knows? Not me. My one of two searches that I'm going to talk about is. Make it last. Who invented… Is that long enough? Who invented chocolate chips? Oh. I thought this was pretty interesting actually. Is it a name we would know? Yes it is. Uh huh. I think you're going to be pleasantly surprised but then also not so much surprised and you're going to be like, what? Okay. I love those. Chocolate chips were created with the invention of chocolate chip cookies. So, they came about at the same time in 1937. So, recent. Oh my gosh. Can you believe that? So, somebody was like, “I really want to make these cookies that have chocolate bits in them.” It was Ruth Graves Wakefield. Oh. of the Toll House Inn. She and her husband owned the Toll House Inn in Whitman, Massachusetts. And people would stop in and they'd stay and she liked to bake and she was very good at it. And so then one time she took a recipe that she used all the time and she added cut up chunks of a semi-sweet Nestle chocolate bar to her cookie recipe. Just on a whim. The cookies were a huge success and Wakefield eventually reached an agreement in 1939 with Nestle to add her recipe to the chocolate bars packaging in exchange for a lifetime supply of chocolate. That's a pretty good deal. I think so too. Initially Nestle included a small chopping tool with the chocolate bars so you could break off. the chips or morsels as they called them. Oh my gosh. But then in 1941, Nestle and at least one of its competitors, who won't be mentioned here, started selling the chocolate in chip form. And the rest is history. I could really destroy a plate of chocolate chip cookies right now. Chocolate chip cookies are some of the best cookies. Ever. Do you like yours super crispy or soft? I will. My preference is soft. I like a soft chocolate chip cookie, but my mom always made them crispier because my dad liked them that way. Okay. And he always wanted semi sweet chips. Yes. And then when I moved out, I was like, I'm using milk chocolate chips. Take that, Callaways. But now I'll eat them either way. Okay. So, your dad was a semi sweet. And you were milk chocolate. I prefer milk chocolate chips in my soft chocolate chip cookies. Okay. You know what I really like? I like when the bottom of the cookie is kind of crispy and hard, but the rest of the cookie is soft. That's not easy to do. No it's not. I agree. Now do you like oatmeal in your chocolate chips cookies? I mean I've never turned down a chocolate chip cookie. Well me neither. But I would prefer they not have anything healthy like oatmeal in them. Ridiculous. I mean my dad liked oatmeal in them so we had to eat them with oatmeal. I know. So, when I moved out I was like, “I'm not putting up meal in these cookies.” They're fine. Mom, they were delicious. I would take some. Yeah. Mrs. Callaway. My sources were ‘Wikipedia and ideafinder’. com. Lovely. Now, incidentally, the Nestle brand Toll House is named after the Wakefields Inn. Yes. The Toll House Inn. Do you remember that Friends episode? Yes, I was just thinking about that. Nestle Toll House. Ha ha Phoebe thought her grandma's grandma had a secret recipe and she'd held onto it for years and years and years. Yeah, yeah. Right there on the back of the package. So, funny. Oh, Phoebe. Next. Next is adding -uh to the end of sentences for emphasis. Yes. Gen Z. Let's hear it. I've noticed recently when I'm eavesdropping on my kids that they like to add a schwa to the last word in something they say when they're voicing annoyance. Oh. Particularly. Mm-hmm. Examples. StopUH. You hit me in the headUH. Oh my goshUH. They put, -uh, at the end of their sentences. Now, when I was a kid, dad would always give me a hard time. Cause if I was frustrated or exasperated, I would say dadUH. Yes. But I didn't do that with every word and he'd say, “My name's not dadUH.” “DadUH, CaraUH.” That's what he would say back. Oh, he gave me, and I was trying to be mad. Yeah, oh yeah, you're pissed when you're saying this most of the time. But I've never thought about, cause I never said, momUH. You never did. Ever. I hear a lot of, shut upUH. It's more like a sigh, like a, ugh. It's just continuing the exasperation. Right. It is hilarious. So, I was giving Peyton, of course, we spent much, much together time today. So, I was giving him a hard time about it. And he was pretty good sport about it. But then I thought the conversation was over because I was I was sick of kind of, you know, teasing him about it. And then he started doing it on purpose just to make me laugh. Which I mean, who wouldn't love that? So, John McWhorter, he's a linguist. He calls it an exclamatory syllable. Oh. And this is not just a Gen Z thing. Some people, okay, on Reddit, they were going on and on about how it's a white girl thing. What? It is so not. Or like a valley girl thing or this or that thing. And it's like, it's not really generational specific. It's not about. being a white girl or anything like that. It's just that it's more common than we think and we have started to filter it out of we don't hear it sometimes anymore because it's so common. Listen. That is funny. Listen to people. So, I'm thinking now about things that I say when I'm exasperated and I say, I didn't realize it, but I will say, Oh my wordUH. Yeah. Uh huh. I probably can't stop that at this point. It's like nervous sniffing. Oh my wordUH. Oh my wordUH. Yup. You're doing it. It's also called an intrusive schwa. If it's in the middle of a word. Oh, how can you please give me an example? Yes, I would love to. Like if you say, it's a bUHloo car. Yeah. Like if you say something like that, like to, or some people do this unintentionally. if they're saying things like realtor, but they don't like how that feels. Like, I had to hire a realtor. So, they'll say, “I had to hire a realUHtor.” Have you heard people call it a realtor? I have. That's an intrusive schwa that makes it easier for people to say. Jewelry, you'll hear people say jewlery. Jewlery. Intrusive schwa sounds like it should be in with the sick fish at Bennett Springs. Intrusive schwa and the sick fish. I think we have our episode title. Furunculosis and the Intrusive Schwa. Or a great band name. Oh. Oh, Furunculosis Intrusive Schwa. Oh, Furunculosis. Oh, my word. Anyway, I find that stuff fascinating. Yes. And I was trying to figure out when that started, but. It's been around for a very long time. Dude, I've been doing it for, since I was a kid. Right. And you know it was around before that. Yeah. And some people on Reddit were saying that too. They were like, I always associate that with whiny kids. Oh. And it's like, well, yeah, but some people never grow out of it. Yeah, I'm a whiny middle-aged woman, I guess. Well, I mean. I don't know. Well, I am. I can't think of when I do it often, but I bet I do it more often than I think I do. I don't know. I think I'm filtering it out because I don't notice. Yeah, because everybody does it. My dad would also say, I would say, NoUH. Yeah, NoUH. And he'd say, “Noah, where's his ark?” Oh, gosh. Dad jokes. Oh, so bad. But I still laughed. I heard a great dad joke. Oh, let's hear it. Recently. You know, we got a Buccee’s around here recently. I don't know if you've heard. I had heard that once or twice. Okay. Peyton is obsessed. He wants to go to Buccee's really, really bad. Oh, okay. I don't know why, but he does. Okay. One of my coworkers said, “Oh, so it's on his Buccee-it list.” I'm telling you that made my day. That is terrible. It made my day. Terrible. I almost fell off my chairUH. Oh my wordUH. My sources were ‘Reddit’ and ‘Lexicon Valley’ podcast. That's actually pretty good. I enjoyed it. It made me roll my eyes really hard. So, that's how you know it's pretty good. Oh my gosh. I was like, dang, that is next level dad joke. All right, here's my last search. All right, origins of Father's Day. I don't even know why I looked this up, I can't remember. The idea for an official Father's Day came to Sonora Smart Dodd two years after the first Mother's Day observance in 1910. She was at church. And the preacher was speaking about the sacrifices that mothers make on Mother's Day. But for Sonora. Her mother died very young. And it was actually during childbirth. And her father took on the role of mother and father in their family. Her dad was William Jackson Smart. He was a Civil War veteran and he raised six children and ran the family farm. And she wanted to create a day honoring fathers as well as mothers and propose a local Father's Day celebration, which received strong support from the citizens and like just the townspeople essentially of Spokane, Washington where she lived. Oh. The date she suggested for festivities was June the 5th, which was her father's birthday But that was only three weeks away from when she was making the suggestion which was close to Mother's Day. Yes. And the preacher said we need to move that further out because we need time to create sermons focused on fathers. Exactly. That's exactly what we were thinking. So, at the time it got moved to the 19th. This kind of started to catch on newspapers across the country that were already endorsing the need for a national Mother's Day, carried stories about her unique idea and the observance that was taking place in Spokane. So, it spread. Because of these stories in the newspaper, interest in a Father's Day increased. However, members of the all-male Congress at the time felt that a move to proclaim a day focusing on men might be interpreted as a self-congratulatory pat on the back. By 1924, President Coolidge recommended that states hold their own Father's Day observances if they wished. He wrote to the nation's governors that, quote, The widespread observance of this occasion is calculated to establish more intimate relations between fathers and their children, and also to impress upon fathers the full measure of their obligations. Many people attempted to secure an official recognition of Father's Day, including Senator Margaret Chase Smith, who, in 1957, wrote, quote, Either we honor both our parents, mother and father, or let us desist from honoring either one. Oh, whoa. Okay. Too serious about this. She went on to say, to single out just one of our parents and omit the other is the most grievous insult imaginable. Oh my lord. Tone it down a little bit. Eventually, in 1972, Father's Day was permanently established by President Richard Nixon. Thanks Dick. He did one good thing. So, it makes me, I want to call my dad and say, hey, in 1972, do you remember the official national establishment of Father's Day? Oh yeah. Was he a father by then? Not yet, but very so close. Maybe they made it just for him. My sister was born in 73. So, depending on the month, mom may have been pregnant. So, that might have been like a really special Father's Day for him. Maybe it was. The first and the first. Yeah. Wow. Anyway, yeah. I used ‘ideafinder.com’ again and ‘Wikipedia’ again on that one. Okay. Did you ever ask your parents, when is kids' day? No. I did because I was a jerk like that. Maybe I did. I don't remember that. And I was told, every day is kids' day. and they weren't wrong. Okay. So, okay, fine. Mother's Day is coming up. It sure enough is. You think you'll get breakfast in bed? Uh, no. You don't? Ah-no. Cara? Yes? What about this one? That one? Not that one. This one? This one. Oh, what about it? Okay.
