WEBVTT

00:00:07.409 --> 00:00:10.470
All right, everybody, welcome to the Mark Mo

00:00:10.470 --> 00:00:14.289
Show, Season 7, Episode 6, or for those of you

00:00:14.289 --> 00:00:21.289
that have dyslexia, 6 -7. Oh, damn. Wow. Anyway,

00:00:21.449 --> 00:00:23.690
it is called... What a start to the show. Is

00:00:23.690 --> 00:00:25.750
everyone ready? What a start to the show. How

00:00:25.750 --> 00:00:29.030
many ways can we get canceled? AI is killing

00:00:29.030 --> 00:00:33.570
us, the name of this episode. So, welcome, ladies

00:00:33.570 --> 00:00:37.070
and gentlemen. I am Mark Maloney, I'm the host

00:00:37.070 --> 00:00:39.210
of this show, been the host for, well, since

00:00:39.210 --> 00:00:42.469
it began. And next to me is also the co -host,

00:00:42.649 --> 00:00:46.490
well, since it began. It is Aidan Maloney, what's

00:00:46.490 --> 00:00:49.009
going on, dude? Hola, I'm chillin', chillaxin',

00:00:49.009 --> 00:00:51.390
it's the weekend, and we're in the AC, thank

00:00:51.390 --> 00:00:55.939
God. Yes. Hottest damn first week of September,

00:00:56.159 --> 00:01:00.240
at least that I can recall. Yeah, it's a thing.

00:01:00.399 --> 00:01:05.280
And I read a news report three days ago -ish

00:01:05.280 --> 00:01:09.239
about El Nino, and it's like the most impressive,

00:01:09.420 --> 00:01:13.819
strongest El Nino in recorded history, which...

00:01:14.339 --> 00:01:16.540
Depending on where you live means a whole lot

00:01:16.540 --> 00:01:19.239
of things. Oh, yeah. I think you guys will be

00:01:19.239 --> 00:01:21.400
swimming down your driveways on the West Coast.

00:01:21.799 --> 00:01:25.760
And here in the Midwest, from what I hear, we

00:01:25.760 --> 00:01:28.099
are going to have an incredibly mild and snow

00:01:28.099 --> 00:01:32.840
-free winter. Wow. Interesting. Yeah. If by mild,

00:01:32.900 --> 00:01:36.560
they mean like 40s and 50s. Low -key, kind of

00:01:36.560 --> 00:01:40.120
excited by that. Yeah. I won't be too mad. No.

00:01:40.340 --> 00:01:44.469
The people out there. People. The people out

00:01:44.469 --> 00:01:48.150
there that are all like, oh, yeah, but it's like

00:01:48.150 --> 00:01:51.569
Christmas and New Year's and we need snow. And

00:01:51.569 --> 00:01:54.310
we don't. We don't. I lived in Florida for a

00:01:54.310 --> 00:01:58.109
year and I swam in the swimming pool on Christmas

00:01:58.109 --> 00:02:01.890
and it was amazing. So I'm just letting people

00:02:01.890 --> 00:02:06.819
know that, no, we don't need snow. We don't.

00:02:07.120 --> 00:02:10.259
I'm quite certain Santa would rather be in a

00:02:10.259 --> 00:02:13.379
Hawaiian shirt and some Bermuda shorts than wear

00:02:13.379 --> 00:02:15.020
that big -ass red thing that he's got to wear

00:02:15.020 --> 00:02:18.840
all the time. You know what they say. Mele Kalikimaka.

00:02:19.340 --> 00:02:21.400
Yeah. That's a thing to say. Which is always

00:02:21.400 --> 00:02:24.460
be chilling by the pool on Christmas. You know

00:02:24.460 --> 00:02:28.270
what? You're right. Yes, and. If you can, why

00:02:28.270 --> 00:02:30.789
not? Yeah. I had a friend of mine, Dave, from

00:02:30.789 --> 00:02:33.689
South Carolina. And one year, it was like 30

00:02:33.689 --> 00:02:36.729
degrees and very windy and blustery and just

00:02:36.729 --> 00:02:39.969
a nasty snowy day. And I was just like, hey,

00:02:39.990 --> 00:02:41.930
dude, Merry Christmas. Hope you're having a good

00:02:41.930 --> 00:02:44.030
one. And he's like, yeah, man, it's great. Yeah,

00:02:44.090 --> 00:02:47.949
we got tea time this morning. I'm like, how many

00:02:47.949 --> 00:02:50.729
ways could you? What an asshole. I know. A tea

00:02:50.729 --> 00:02:54.240
time on Christmas morning. How? Incredibly awesome,

00:02:54.340 --> 00:02:57.099
that would be. And secondarily, how dare you.

00:02:57.199 --> 00:02:59.699
And how dare you. How dare you offend me in such

00:02:59.699 --> 00:03:03.199
a way. At any rate, let's get this thing back

00:03:03.199 --> 00:03:09.080
on the rails. Aiden also has a gaming site called

00:03:09.080 --> 00:03:11.319
Aiden Spelled the Right Way. It plays a lot of

00:03:11.319 --> 00:03:13.879
PC gaming content, GeoGuess, Polybridge, Observation

00:03:13.879 --> 00:03:17.479
Duty, but most and more importantly, a lot of...

00:03:17.870 --> 00:03:20.349
horror movie games, which seems to kind of be

00:03:20.349 --> 00:03:22.849
in his wheelhouse as of late. Why don't you tell

00:03:22.849 --> 00:03:24.490
the fine folks what you've been doing? Yeah,

00:03:24.569 --> 00:03:27.430
last episode I put out was simply titled Two

00:03:27.430 --> 00:03:30.310
Scary Games. And for everyone not following,

00:03:30.590 --> 00:03:34.050
it's implied that I played two scary games, which

00:03:34.050 --> 00:03:37.050
I did. If you thought I didn't, you might be

00:03:37.050 --> 00:03:39.729
silly of the brain. Possibly. I have the power

00:03:39.729 --> 00:03:42.050
to diagnose that because that's a diagnosis I

00:03:42.050 --> 00:03:45.210
came up with. So game one, right, he's going

00:03:45.210 --> 00:03:48.150
around this, I don't know if it's a sanitarium

00:03:48.150 --> 00:03:50.169
or just this old building. It's like this half

00:03:50.169 --> 00:03:54.750
-built affordable housing project thing. But

00:03:54.750 --> 00:03:56.530
really, who the hell's living in this thing?

00:03:56.710 --> 00:04:00.770
It's decrepit. Decrepit and scary. And Aiden's

00:04:00.770 --> 00:04:02.830
on this adventure and he spends half the time

00:04:02.830 --> 00:04:04.669
like, where do they want me to place this camera?

00:04:04.909 --> 00:04:06.650
It's hysterical. I'd be like, dude, I'd be so

00:04:06.650 --> 00:04:08.889
irritated right now. And he's walking around

00:04:08.889 --> 00:04:10.849
and he's upstairs and there's this little catwalk

00:04:10.849 --> 00:04:13.490
thing made of boards. And he's like walking across

00:04:13.490 --> 00:04:15.270
it and literally there's a balcony. It would

00:04:15.270 --> 00:04:18.410
be like if you had a short ranch house like jumping

00:04:18.410 --> 00:04:22.350
from your gutter line onto the grass. Yeah. Which

00:04:22.350 --> 00:04:24.329
at worst, you might. turn your ankle, right?

00:04:24.470 --> 00:04:28.889
Exactly. Well, he died. That I was literally

00:04:28.889 --> 00:04:31.389
LOLing. Simply passed away. He's like, oh, there's

00:04:31.389 --> 00:04:35.250
a balcony and I'm dead. So I found that to be

00:04:35.250 --> 00:04:36.850
hysterical. But that's the kind of stuff that

00:04:36.850 --> 00:04:38.829
he does, guys. So you should definitely check

00:04:38.829 --> 00:04:42.750
that out. It's pretty fun. And then we do our

00:04:42.750 --> 00:04:45.189
own gaming together. So it's kind of a combo

00:04:45.189 --> 00:04:48.529
of the chaos that we produce here on the Mark

00:04:48.529 --> 00:04:50.910
Moe Show. A little bit of improv and fun and

00:04:50.910 --> 00:04:54.910
whatnot. We game. We play games where we don't

00:04:54.910 --> 00:04:57.689
have to be totally, like, screwed into it. There

00:04:57.689 --> 00:04:59.610
are games where we can kind of interact as we're

00:04:59.610 --> 00:05:01.290
playing along in the game, which just makes it

00:05:01.290 --> 00:05:02.889
a whole lot of fun, hopefully fun for you guys

00:05:02.889 --> 00:05:06.769
as well. I know we just recently did some GeoGuessr.

00:05:07.430 --> 00:05:11.389
We also did some, God, I always forget what we

00:05:11.389 --> 00:05:13.370
call them. BuzzFeed quizzes. The BuzzFeed quizzes,

00:05:13.449 --> 00:05:16.290
right. Yeah, we do some BuzzFeed quizzes. So

00:05:16.290 --> 00:05:17.730
we've been having a lot of fun with that, and

00:05:17.730 --> 00:05:19.610
there's some other games that we've played in

00:05:19.610 --> 00:05:23.350
the past I think we'll definitely circle back

00:05:23.350 --> 00:05:25.370
to. We'll definitely be circling back to them,

00:05:25.430 --> 00:05:27.750
but hopefully you guys enjoyed. Those, of course,

00:05:27.829 --> 00:05:31.389
are on the YouTube, and this, the Mark Moe Show,

00:05:31.550 --> 00:05:34.670
is on YouTube, but also on every... podcast platform

00:05:34.670 --> 00:05:38.009
so you can check us out on on apple and spotify

00:05:38.009 --> 00:05:40.649
and i mean you name it it's it's out there yeah

00:05:40.649 --> 00:05:42.870
wherever you get your podcast you can also find

00:05:42.870 --> 00:05:45.310
us on patreon if you have one dollar a month

00:05:45.310 --> 00:05:48.509
to spare Yeah. It's an idea. Yeah, why not? Just

00:05:48.509 --> 00:05:51.329
a thought. Some good content over there. So definitely

00:05:51.329 --> 00:05:54.189
check us out everywhere. And then this week,

00:05:54.209 --> 00:05:56.430
we're talking a little bit about AI. Earlier

00:05:56.430 --> 00:05:58.750
in the week, Aiden had an idea and we chatted

00:05:58.750 --> 00:06:01.829
about it. And then a few seasons ago, we touched

00:06:01.829 --> 00:06:05.430
on AI a little bit. So this, I think, is going

00:06:05.430 --> 00:06:08.649
to be a fun follow -up and something Aiden's

00:06:08.649 --> 00:06:11.269
going to drive here today. So why don't you kick

00:06:11.269 --> 00:06:13.629
us off, man? Yeah, this idea kind of spurred

00:06:13.629 --> 00:06:16.420
from a YouTube video I saw. earlier this week

00:06:16.420 --> 00:06:20.439
as you mentioned from adam conover where he was

00:06:20.439 --> 00:06:22.579
talking wow you can open that can any louder

00:06:22.579 --> 00:06:26.819
please hey man it's not like a monologue the

00:06:26.819 --> 00:06:30.399
beer's not gonna drink itself this is true so

00:06:30.399 --> 00:06:36.540
okay this is true damn man i i will damn man

00:06:36.540 --> 00:06:41.300
me i will refrain from hey look man i'm gonna

00:06:41.300 --> 00:06:45.629
refrain from any more than us and so take it

00:06:45.629 --> 00:06:51.269
away take it away take away my man so adam conover

00:06:51.269 --> 00:06:54.470
excellent youtuber he's worked in hollywood for

00:06:54.470 --> 00:06:56.769
god knows how long used to have a show on true

00:06:56.769 --> 00:07:00.350
tv adam ruins everything funny guy funny guy

00:07:00.350 --> 00:07:02.810
but he talks about real shit that's going on

00:07:02.810 --> 00:07:05.370
in the world on his youtube channel and he had

00:07:05.370 --> 00:07:07.769
a recent video discussing ai and its problems

00:07:07.769 --> 00:07:11.930
and it kind of inspired me to uh To birth my

00:07:11.930 --> 00:07:15.649
own take. I love that. And then we can kind of

00:07:15.649 --> 00:07:19.430
discuss from there. So, AI is killing us. Bold

00:07:19.430 --> 00:07:21.490
statement. Bold statement. Can you back it up?

00:07:21.829 --> 00:07:25.129
Let's start off with the destruction of the internet

00:07:25.129 --> 00:07:29.129
as we know it. Or maybe as we knew it. Yeah.

00:07:30.069 --> 00:07:33.100
Kick it off with the dead internet theory. The

00:07:33.100 --> 00:07:35.980
earliest known origin of this comes from 2021

00:07:35.980 --> 00:07:39.540
from an online forum from a user claiming that

00:07:39.540 --> 00:07:42.639
most of the internet is fake. Of course, dead

00:07:42.639 --> 00:07:45.680
internet theory, that term, has gained traction

00:07:45.680 --> 00:07:49.959
over the last five years as bot traffic has indeed

00:07:49.959 --> 00:07:53.699
far surpassed human traffic on the internet.

00:07:53.879 --> 00:07:57.040
That's true. From spreading political propaganda

00:07:57.040 --> 00:08:01.500
to throwing cheap ads in our face, AI bots fill...

00:08:02.029 --> 00:08:05.410
Our feeds and our brains with whatever garbage

00:08:05.410 --> 00:08:09.750
their techno -fascist owners please. Damn. And

00:08:09.750 --> 00:08:13.569
that's what's arguably worse than that, if it

00:08:13.569 --> 00:08:17.029
can get worse, and it does, is bots spreading

00:08:17.029 --> 00:08:22.370
and shilling generative slop art, stealing money

00:08:22.370 --> 00:08:26.269
and views from real human beings. Okay. Which

00:08:26.269 --> 00:08:30.009
brings me to the next big problem, generative

00:08:30.009 --> 00:08:36.059
AI. From memes to paintings to music, AI companies

00:08:36.059 --> 00:08:40.200
scrape the internet for every work of art they

00:08:40.200 --> 00:08:43.799
can find. Human -made art with intellectual property

00:08:43.799 --> 00:08:48.159
rights, trademarks, copyrights. And yet, this

00:08:48.159 --> 00:08:52.460
human art gets stolen to feed and train these

00:08:52.460 --> 00:08:57.840
soulless behemoths. Is it pure plagiarism? Is

00:08:57.840 --> 00:09:02.559
it... labor theft of time spent, or is it the

00:09:02.559 --> 00:09:06.340
piss poor attempt at replacing a human soul with

00:09:06.340 --> 00:09:09.659
a capitalist's wet dream? I'm not really sure

00:09:09.659 --> 00:09:13.159
which of the three is the worst truth, honestly.

00:09:13.559 --> 00:09:17.519
All of them. Yeah. There's one more hard truth

00:09:17.519 --> 00:09:20.580
that, of course, we can't really talk about AI

00:09:20.580 --> 00:09:24.240
without covering, and that is the militaristic

00:09:24.240 --> 00:09:28.120
police state of AI surveillance. You may have

00:09:28.120 --> 00:09:32.200
heard of Palantir. You've probably heard of Flock.

00:09:32.419 --> 00:09:36.679
Yep. You've probably seen dozens of cameras in

00:09:36.679 --> 00:09:40.919
your town pointing at roads, public parks, in

00:09:40.919 --> 00:09:44.320
some cases pointing at houses. You may have also

00:09:44.320 --> 00:09:48.059
heard of the Fourth Amendment of the United States

00:09:48.059 --> 00:09:52.179
Constitution. Hmm. Interesting. These companies

00:09:52.179 --> 00:09:55.440
clearly don't give a fuck, and neither do the

00:09:55.440 --> 00:09:57.759
politicians that they keep on their payroll.

00:09:58.080 --> 00:10:01.100
But what we should all know is that Palantir

00:10:01.100 --> 00:10:04.059
and Flock aren't public safety corporations,

00:10:04.759 --> 00:10:08.679
they're public surveillance corporations. And

00:10:08.679 --> 00:10:11.980
they use AI, and in most cases they use our own

00:10:11.980 --> 00:10:17.000
tax dollars, to track everybody's every movement.

00:10:18.379 --> 00:10:22.799
They assist in proven police stalking cases of

00:10:22.799 --> 00:10:26.799
exes or perceived enemies. They assist in bombing

00:10:26.799 --> 00:10:30.299
civilians around the globe. AI is so much worse

00:10:30.299 --> 00:10:34.940
than the theft of the human soul. It's the theft

00:10:34.940 --> 00:10:39.259
of legitimate human lives. Now, this might get

00:10:39.259 --> 00:10:43.460
us demonetized. Not that we make much money anyway.

00:10:43.700 --> 00:10:47.039
I'll miss those dimes. Yeah, right. I'll say

00:10:47.039 --> 00:10:51.179
this in closing. Fuck OpenAI, fuck Palantir,

00:10:51.340 --> 00:10:55.980
fuck Meta, fuck Flock, fuck Google, fuck Anthropic,

00:10:56.220 --> 00:11:00.100
fuck the police, and fuck anybody who supports

00:11:00.100 --> 00:11:03.259
any of the previously mentioned shitbag organizations.

00:11:04.100 --> 00:11:08.100
They withdraw our clean drinking water for consumption,

00:11:08.419 --> 00:11:12.139
jack into our power grid, steal our thoughts

00:11:12.139 --> 00:11:15.759
and our art, destroy the very foundations of

00:11:15.759 --> 00:11:19.470
communication as we know it, and literally kill

00:11:19.470 --> 00:11:23.929
our peers across the globe. As I take it, AI

00:11:23.929 --> 00:11:28.169
is a criminal misuse of technology and humanity.

00:11:28.570 --> 00:11:32.509
Wow, that's heavy. Yeah, and that's just touching

00:11:32.509 --> 00:11:34.529
on the tip of the iceberg. That's just what we

00:11:34.529 --> 00:11:39.009
know publicly AI is being used for. Yeah. It

00:11:39.009 --> 00:11:41.220
gets so much more evil than that. And, well,

00:11:41.320 --> 00:11:42.700
it's going to be very difficult to find the Mark

00:11:42.700 --> 00:11:45.980
Moe Show now, so we are going to actually become

00:11:45.980 --> 00:11:49.419
a newsletter. We will print it out and hand it

00:11:49.419 --> 00:11:52.039
out on Michigan Avenue in Chicago, if you're

00:11:52.039 --> 00:11:55.139
interested. Yeah, I'm sure everyone's Alexa just

00:11:55.139 --> 00:11:58.720
peeked up and is like, hmm, mark this house as

00:11:58.720 --> 00:12:03.639
unsafe from Palantir observation. Oh, my God.

00:12:04.259 --> 00:12:07.679
Yeah, it's a thing. And here's the thing. So

00:12:07.679 --> 00:12:12.350
there are... They're applications in which I

00:12:12.350 --> 00:12:16.009
use it. So for example, I just got done doing

00:12:16.009 --> 00:12:22.389
a 97 -page company policy manual. And I've done

00:12:22.389 --> 00:12:24.070
these from scratch in the past because I've been

00:12:24.070 --> 00:12:25.669
doing these things for 20 years, long before

00:12:25.669 --> 00:12:29.830
AI was a thing. And so I have to say, in the

00:12:29.830 --> 00:12:32.110
amount of time, hours -wise, that it took me

00:12:32.110 --> 00:12:33.909
to produce this thing, not that I produced it

00:12:33.909 --> 00:12:38.750
exclusively on AI, but if I... We got to a subject

00:12:38.750 --> 00:12:40.629
matter where it's like I knew some things, but

00:12:40.629 --> 00:12:43.990
not all things. And you can put things into the

00:12:43.990 --> 00:12:46.929
AI bot and say, hey, I'm looking for this, whatever.

00:12:47.129 --> 00:12:49.490
And all of a sudden, bam, a whole bunch of shit

00:12:49.490 --> 00:12:52.190
from the American Bar Association pops up. And

00:12:52.190 --> 00:12:54.190
I'm like, oh, cool. That's exactly what I was

00:12:54.190 --> 00:12:57.210
looking for. Bam, I put it in there. I probably

00:12:57.210 --> 00:13:00.110
saved 10 hours of work. And there are legitimate

00:13:00.110 --> 00:13:03.809
applications for artificial intelligence, right?

00:13:03.950 --> 00:13:08.379
Using it as a tool. for productivity, time -saving,

00:13:08.419 --> 00:13:11.519
like you just mentioned. Yeah. There are dozens,

00:13:11.700 --> 00:13:16.080
hundreds of really, really good applicable spots

00:13:16.080 --> 00:13:20.320
for AI in healthcare and medicine. Mm -hmm. And

00:13:20.320 --> 00:13:23.860
then there's just the everything else that's,

00:13:23.860 --> 00:13:28.419
as I said, destroying the human soul, stealing

00:13:28.419 --> 00:13:32.340
our shit, killing people in the Middle East for

00:13:32.340 --> 00:13:35.559
fuck knows what reason. Because they've been

00:13:35.559 --> 00:13:37.500
doing it for thousands of years anyway. Right.

00:13:37.559 --> 00:13:40.559
Why stop now? Yeah. Now we just have better tools

00:13:40.559 --> 00:13:44.159
to make it happen. Cool. Thanks, Palantir. Yeah,

00:13:44.299 --> 00:13:47.559
that's bad. Well, and then something that you

00:13:47.559 --> 00:13:49.639
could have expanded on, too, is the data centers,

00:13:49.779 --> 00:13:52.379
which I think is what we focused on the first

00:13:52.379 --> 00:13:56.539
time. And that's a real problem. And to the point

00:13:56.539 --> 00:13:58.559
where I feel like China does everything better

00:13:58.559 --> 00:14:02.000
than us now anyway. So, like, China has some

00:14:02.000 --> 00:14:05.620
data centers. They're in the ocean. They're floating.

00:14:06.019 --> 00:14:08.379
So the ocean water is the thing that actually

00:14:08.379 --> 00:14:10.340
cools it. So they don't have to pull from the

00:14:10.340 --> 00:14:12.779
fresh water. Right. They're just pulling from

00:14:12.779 --> 00:14:15.840
the ocean and recirculating it back into the

00:14:15.840 --> 00:14:17.779
ocean. Back into the ocean, yeah. So there's

00:14:17.779 --> 00:14:20.980
really nothing bad there. And you just plop a

00:14:20.980 --> 00:14:23.259
bunch of solar panels on the top of it. There's

00:14:23.259 --> 00:14:27.559
your power. So it's like we do it a certain way,

00:14:27.580 --> 00:14:30.759
and then the Chinese are like, ah. That's pretty

00:14:30.759 --> 00:14:33.039
fucking dumb. That's stupid. We're going to do

00:14:33.039 --> 00:14:35.100
it differently. And then they do, and it makes

00:14:35.100 --> 00:14:38.299
more sense. So, yeah. And it's being able to,

00:14:38.320 --> 00:14:41.399
you know, plopping these data centers, you know,

00:14:41.399 --> 00:14:45.399
near neighborhoods, suburbs, plopping it here

00:14:45.399 --> 00:14:48.240
in Indiana. There's this town called Hobart.

00:14:48.419 --> 00:14:50.419
And so they want to put one in this area. And

00:14:50.419 --> 00:14:52.399
I think they are technically putting one. They

00:14:52.399 --> 00:14:53.960
started building, even though it didn't get approved,

00:14:54.179 --> 00:14:58.169
in this wetland area. This is ridiculous. And

00:14:58.169 --> 00:15:01.990
then they're pulling so much power off the power

00:15:01.990 --> 00:15:05.090
grid. The consumers are paying for it. Right.

00:15:05.470 --> 00:15:09.409
And there's light pollution and noise pollution.

00:15:09.830 --> 00:15:13.990
And think about processors and things that would

00:15:13.990 --> 00:15:18.529
normally be in kind of the consumer marketplace.

00:15:19.429 --> 00:15:22.610
And, you know, we rebuilt Aiden's gaming computer

00:15:22.610 --> 00:15:25.470
not too long ago. Thank God. Before the explosion

00:15:25.470 --> 00:15:28.720
of data centers. Just beat AI. And right, because

00:15:28.720 --> 00:15:30.980
we did it for a certain amount of money. And

00:15:30.980 --> 00:15:34.039
had we tried to do it today, he might as well

00:15:34.039 --> 00:15:35.600
just get on and buy a new one because there's

00:15:35.600 --> 00:15:36.779
no way in hell we would have been able to do

00:15:36.779 --> 00:15:38.659
it. Even the new ones are so much more expensive.

00:15:38.720 --> 00:15:42.320
They are. Like we did the math. I think we sat

00:15:42.320 --> 00:15:44.519
down and just toyed around with it for five minutes.

00:15:45.100 --> 00:15:48.960
Every part that I bought for the PC that we make

00:15:48.960 --> 00:15:51.460
content on and I play games on, we play games

00:15:51.460 --> 00:15:54.279
on. Every part that I upgraded in there has gone

00:15:54.279 --> 00:15:58.340
up from anywhere from 50 to 200 % more expensive

00:15:58.340 --> 00:16:01.899
than when I purchased it a year or two ago. Yep.

00:16:02.580 --> 00:16:04.899
It's absurd. Not to mention, you touched on this,

00:16:05.039 --> 00:16:09.039
my Nipsco bill. Hey, if you listened last week,

00:16:09.059 --> 00:16:11.220
you can probably tell I'm not a fan of Nipsco.

00:16:11.240 --> 00:16:16.220
They're the privately owned utility company that

00:16:16.220 --> 00:16:20.600
services my house. I'm paying at least 50 % to

00:16:20.600 --> 00:16:23.919
75 % higher bills this year than I did last summer.

00:16:24.120 --> 00:16:29.120
Easy. Easily. Yeah. Why are working Americans

00:16:29.120 --> 00:16:33.399
fronting the bill for products we don't need

00:16:33.399 --> 00:16:37.899
for companies that don't pay taxes and don't

00:16:37.899 --> 00:16:40.179
care about us? Yep. That's the way it works.

00:16:40.480 --> 00:16:44.299
That's the way it works now. You know, a long

00:16:44.299 --> 00:16:48.419
time ago. Me and Aiden and his sisters. We would

00:16:48.419 --> 00:16:51.059
get together and watch a lot of cartoons, but

00:16:51.059 --> 00:16:53.299
then we'd watch movies too. And one movie that

00:16:53.299 --> 00:16:55.620
was always kind of like a family favorite was

00:16:55.620 --> 00:16:58.899
iRobot. Oh, yeah. Great Will Smith movie. And

00:16:58.899 --> 00:17:02.860
based off of, oh, God, what was it? Isaac Asimov,

00:17:02.919 --> 00:17:06.420
I think. Anyway, we would watch it, and I'd always

00:17:06.420 --> 00:17:09.920
kind of half -jokingly say, this is the future.

00:17:10.039 --> 00:17:12.519
This is what's going to happen. But somewhere

00:17:12.519 --> 00:17:16.690
between iRobot. and Terminator, and WALL -E,

00:17:16.789 --> 00:17:20.769
that cartoon movie, all those three kind of have

00:17:20.769 --> 00:17:23.309
it. Yeah, they kind of nailed it. They kind of

00:17:23.309 --> 00:17:28.230
nailed it. So our future is somewhere in between

00:17:28.230 --> 00:17:32.029
all three of those movies. Right. Just dystopian,

00:17:32.029 --> 00:17:37.089
techno -fascist, late -stage capitalism where,

00:17:37.170 --> 00:17:41.410
shit, working people suffer and die for a couple

00:17:41.410 --> 00:17:44.380
dozen billionaires and trillionaires. They just

00:17:44.380 --> 00:17:48.160
had a robot Olympics in China. That shit downright

00:17:48.160 --> 00:17:51.339
scared me. I watched that, and there's a sprint,

00:17:51.359 --> 00:17:53.400
and these robots are competing against each other,

00:17:53.440 --> 00:17:55.579
and I'm like, nope, mm -mm, saw that movie. No,

00:17:55.599 --> 00:18:00.160
no, mm -mm. The only cool robot things that I

00:18:00.160 --> 00:18:04.279
really dig, you ever see those clips of, like,

00:18:04.299 --> 00:18:07.839
the robot RC cars battling in this massive arena

00:18:07.839 --> 00:18:11.400
before? Oh, yeah, I've seen that. That I dig.

00:18:11.920 --> 00:18:13.480
But most of those, they have human controllers.

00:18:13.859 --> 00:18:15.400
Because it's relatively harmless. It's harmless,

00:18:15.480 --> 00:18:18.339
and you get to see robots explode, and it's at

00:18:18.339 --> 00:18:20.819
least a human being controlling the robot. Yep.

00:18:21.319 --> 00:18:24.559
That's about it. I don't... Robot Olympics, like,

00:18:24.700 --> 00:18:27.759
it sounds dystopian, but I guess I kind of get

00:18:27.759 --> 00:18:31.579
it. Like, it's a way for the engineers and the

00:18:31.579 --> 00:18:33.859
smart science -y people to show off what they've

00:18:33.859 --> 00:18:36.980
built. That's grand. Yeah, oh yeah. But at some

00:18:36.980 --> 00:18:41.039
point, I fear, probably similarly as you fear,

00:18:41.660 --> 00:18:44.339
I don't want the robots to do better in the Olympics

00:18:44.339 --> 00:18:48.240
than humans. No, I do not. I do not want that

00:18:48.240 --> 00:18:50.519
at all. Uh -uh. I don't want a robot that can

00:18:50.519 --> 00:18:53.700
run at 30 miles an hour. Fuck that. Because you

00:18:53.700 --> 00:18:55.660
know damn well they build that. Who's buying

00:18:55.660 --> 00:18:59.079
it? Militaries and police forces. Yep. That's

00:18:59.079 --> 00:19:02.279
it. For crowd control. Yeah. Ice, by the way,

00:19:02.299 --> 00:19:06.740
fuck ice. Ice is already buying, like, taser

00:19:06.740 --> 00:19:11.250
hand gloves and robot dogs and shit. What are

00:19:11.250 --> 00:19:16.769
we doing? Yeah. It's a problem. It's just a fun

00:19:16.769 --> 00:19:19.869
new police state to prevent any social uprising.

00:19:20.150 --> 00:19:23.509
Yeah. As I see it. Yeah, that's it exactly. But

00:19:23.509 --> 00:19:27.369
AI, yeah. Yeah. It's a thing. As you said it

00:19:27.369 --> 00:19:32.730
back in season four, AI, my guy. Yeah, it's here.

00:19:32.990 --> 00:19:38.069
I want it not to be here. Yeah. I honestly, I

00:19:38.069 --> 00:19:41.630
don't even think if... a leader got into the

00:19:41.630 --> 00:19:43.970
White House who was at the opposite end of the

00:19:43.970 --> 00:19:47.950
spectrum of the current clown, I'm not sure AI

00:19:47.950 --> 00:19:50.529
would go away. I don't think so. Just because

00:19:50.529 --> 00:19:52.970
no matter how far left or right or anywhere in

00:19:52.970 --> 00:19:55.230
the middle someone is, ultimately it's about

00:19:55.230 --> 00:19:58.750
money. It's always about money. And for how many

00:19:58.750 --> 00:20:03.670
decades have corporations and billionaires legitimately,

00:20:03.690 --> 00:20:07.930
provably had more power than elected officials?

00:20:08.570 --> 00:20:10.930
Because it's been for most of my adult life.

00:20:11.190 --> 00:20:13.950
Yeah. Most of my child life, too. There's never

00:20:13.950 --> 00:20:15.630
been one time where I'm like, oh, yeah, that

00:20:15.630 --> 00:20:18.109
politician's going to make real change. No, they're

00:20:18.109 --> 00:20:21.630
always on somebody's payroll. Yeah. I remember

00:20:21.630 --> 00:20:23.630
a guy in the 1960s who tried to make a lot of

00:20:23.630 --> 00:20:25.170
change, and we know what happened to him. Shot

00:20:25.170 --> 00:20:30.109
him in the face. Yeah. So that was kind of a

00:20:30.109 --> 00:20:34.680
thing. Then there was a guy in the early 80s

00:20:34.680 --> 00:20:36.420
who came in when America was in rough shape.

00:20:36.539 --> 00:20:38.480
And even though he was at the opposite end of

00:20:38.480 --> 00:20:39.880
the spectrum, there was another guy that came

00:20:39.880 --> 00:20:41.920
in and was trying to make a lot of change. They

00:20:41.920 --> 00:20:46.019
tried to take him out. So, yeah. So anybody that

00:20:46.019 --> 00:20:49.180
tries to make any sort of change that may disrupt

00:20:49.180 --> 00:20:52.319
the system for whatever reason, they try and

00:20:52.319 --> 00:20:57.099
take him out. Yep. MLK Jr., Bobby Kennedy, JFK,

00:20:57.259 --> 00:21:01.279
Reagan. Yeah. Countless journalists. I mean,

00:21:01.299 --> 00:21:04.240
how long ago did the Panama Papers come out?

00:21:04.480 --> 00:21:08.200
Oh, God. How long ago was Cambridge Analytica

00:21:08.200 --> 00:21:12.900
scandal? Yep. Nothing has changed. The Epstein

00:21:12.900 --> 00:21:17.420
files. Nothing happens. Because who's in power?

00:21:17.599 --> 00:21:21.119
The people with money. No, and even if you think

00:21:21.119 --> 00:21:24.819
Snowden is a douchebag, he had to move to Russia

00:21:24.819 --> 00:21:28.119
to live. Right. Knowing, okay, what I'm going

00:21:28.119 --> 00:21:31.029
to do. is really going to tip the apple cart

00:21:31.029 --> 00:21:32.970
and it's going to end up with me being a body

00:21:32.970 --> 00:21:35.450
bag. So I'm going to make sure I go to Russia

00:21:35.450 --> 00:21:37.670
and share a little bit with them. And then at

00:21:37.670 --> 00:21:40.809
least I know I can wake up every morning and

00:21:40.809 --> 00:21:43.069
live the rest of my life. Right. What happened

00:21:43.069 --> 00:21:45.750
to the open AI whistleblower? Oh, he committed

00:21:45.750 --> 00:21:48.049
suicide by two shots to the back of his head.

00:21:48.210 --> 00:21:50.769
Oopsie. Very cool. Yeah. How Russian sounding.

00:21:51.029 --> 00:21:53.650
I know. I'm going to commit suicide. Bang. Oh,

00:21:53.730 --> 00:21:57.410
I better try one more time. Bang. Come on. Yeah.

00:21:57.849 --> 00:22:00.400
Doesn't work that way. It's unbelievable. Yeah.

00:22:00.599 --> 00:22:04.440
So anyway, it's just kind of how we're living

00:22:04.440 --> 00:22:07.920
right now. And it's, look. It's a bleak present

00:22:07.920 --> 00:22:10.960
and a bleaker future. I was just about to say,

00:22:11.079 --> 00:22:14.680
you know, a lot of this is happening now. And

00:22:14.680 --> 00:22:17.220
in the course of the rest of my lifetime, I'm

00:22:17.220 --> 00:22:18.720
sure I will see things that are not going to

00:22:18.720 --> 00:22:22.980
be great. But the worst of it will come after

00:22:22.980 --> 00:22:27.740
I'm gone. And that's going to be this dystopian.

00:22:29.469 --> 00:22:34.809
universe that I wouldn't recognize and that Aiden

00:22:34.809 --> 00:22:36.829
and his sisters and if they have any children

00:22:36.829 --> 00:22:39.210
will have to deal with. Right. And it's going

00:22:39.210 --> 00:22:44.230
to suck. Yeah. And for young people today that

00:22:44.230 --> 00:22:46.470
are dating or end up getting married and then

00:22:46.470 --> 00:22:48.410
they don't end up having any kids or they just

00:22:48.410 --> 00:22:50.950
have one kid, I understand. Right. How can you

00:22:50.950 --> 00:22:52.849
afford kids? How can you afford them and why

00:22:52.849 --> 00:22:54.130
would you want to bring them into this world?

00:22:54.170 --> 00:22:56.599
Why would you want to do that? Right. Hi, I'm

00:22:56.599 --> 00:22:58.359
going to bring you to this world. I'm like, well,

00:22:58.480 --> 00:23:00.299
by the time you're in your 20s and 30s, I'm sure

00:23:00.299 --> 00:23:03.299
we'll be into World War III by then. And everything

00:23:03.299 --> 00:23:06.819
will be robotic and monitored. And it just sounds

00:23:06.819 --> 00:23:09.039
awesome. And you can't go outside in the summertime

00:23:09.039 --> 00:23:12.859
anymore. No, exactly. Yeah. They'd be like, don't

00:23:12.859 --> 00:23:15.240
spend more than 15 minutes outside mowing your

00:23:15.240 --> 00:23:17.319
lawn or you will get skin cancer. Yeah, right.

00:23:17.619 --> 00:23:19.079
That's pretty much the way it's going to be.

00:23:19.200 --> 00:23:21.579
Epic. Let's freaking go, Chad. They always talk

00:23:21.579 --> 00:23:24.160
about Los Angeles and the valley and the bad

00:23:24.160 --> 00:23:26.359
smog. Most of the country is going to be like

00:23:26.359 --> 00:23:29.680
that by then. Oh, yeah. The forest fires and

00:23:29.680 --> 00:23:33.279
stuff, forests will remain by that point. It's

00:23:33.279 --> 00:23:36.160
going to be a big problem. And with no forests,

00:23:36.279 --> 00:23:39.160
that means the planet gets hotter. Mm -hmm. I

00:23:39.160 --> 00:23:42.400
mean, a majority of... The oxygen on Earth comes

00:23:42.400 --> 00:23:46.579
from forests and algae in the oceans, which,

00:23:46.660 --> 00:23:48.619
by the way, the oceans are dying. So, hey, that

00:23:48.619 --> 00:23:51.019
should ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ring

00:23:51.019 --> 00:23:54.160
the alarm bells, boys. That's a problem. Oh,

00:23:54.200 --> 00:23:57.599
yeah. There is a spot that is marked by a buoy

00:23:57.599 --> 00:24:00.680
in the South Pacific Ocean. It's the most remote

00:24:00.680 --> 00:24:03.660
part of the planet. Look it up on Google. It's

00:24:03.660 --> 00:24:06.299
very fascinating. And you can just jump in and

00:24:06.299 --> 00:24:09.240
swim. You would go in there and not be like,

00:24:09.359 --> 00:24:10.920
oh, I don't want to get eaten by a shark. You

00:24:10.920 --> 00:24:13.039
don't have to worry about it. There is not a

00:24:13.039 --> 00:24:17.200
fish to be seen for 100 miles in any direction

00:24:17.200 --> 00:24:21.200
because everything there is dead. Right. You

00:24:21.200 --> 00:24:23.440
have nothing to worry about. Feel free to swim

00:24:23.440 --> 00:24:26.000
your ass off around there because there's nothing.

00:24:26.200 --> 00:24:30.980
Yeah. And that is just a sign of the future where

00:24:30.980 --> 00:24:33.759
you are just going to have huge areas of ocean

00:24:33.759 --> 00:24:35.940
where there's just nothing living anymore. Yeah.

00:24:36.400 --> 00:24:37.819
And they're already having that problem in Australia.

00:24:38.160 --> 00:24:40.039
Right. With the Great Barrier Reef dying. Great

00:24:40.039 --> 00:24:42.779
Barrier Reef is going to be dead. Beautiful forest

00:24:42.779 --> 00:24:46.059
hikes. Well, not sure how long Gen Alpha is going

00:24:46.059 --> 00:24:48.240
to have to go on those for much longer. Nope.

00:24:48.380 --> 00:24:51.299
Enjoy them now. Yeah. Yeah. It's an issue. And

00:24:51.299 --> 00:24:55.240
it's all interrelated. Yeah. Good times. Great

00:24:55.240 --> 00:24:58.690
times. Yeah, this is just enough. Yeah. Up -tempo

00:24:58.690 --> 00:25:01.470
show. I can't wait to take the break and then

00:25:01.470 --> 00:25:03.950
immediately go into Carpe Diem and just be like.

00:25:04.190 --> 00:25:07.650
Carpe Diem in our top ten and we're like, winky,

00:25:07.750 --> 00:25:10.029
winky. Would you put peanut butter on your ball

00:25:10.029 --> 00:25:15.750
sack for $3? It's a funny, silly show, but we're

00:25:15.750 --> 00:25:19.210
all going to die from AI. Oh, man. Because we

00:25:19.210 --> 00:25:21.799
can do both. On this trail. We're very flexible.

00:25:21.940 --> 00:25:24.099
Yes, this is true. Definitely. Not flexible in

00:25:24.099 --> 00:25:26.240
that way. I mean, I'm not doing yoga. If you

00:25:26.240 --> 00:25:28.799
ever see me in a downward dog, call 911. Yeah.

00:25:29.380 --> 00:25:31.220
Although that is comfortable, man. I gotta be

00:25:31.220 --> 00:25:34.519
real. Yeah, I don't know about that. Oh. Just

00:25:34.519 --> 00:25:37.920
me? Just you, I think. Shucks. Yeah, there's

00:25:37.920 --> 00:25:40.779
one where your leg kind of goes up and the arm

00:25:40.779 --> 00:25:43.180
goes down. It's like you're playing that game

00:25:43.180 --> 00:25:44.839
with the plastic sheet and the colored circles.

00:25:45.180 --> 00:25:47.160
Oh, Twister? Yeah. Twister, I hardly know her.

00:25:47.450 --> 00:25:49.589
Yeah, I believe the guy who invented yoga probably

00:25:49.589 --> 00:25:51.730
looked at Twister and be like, I could do a thing

00:25:51.730 --> 00:25:55.269
with this. I think I have a million dollar idea.

00:25:55.670 --> 00:25:58.609
Huh. Forget the plastic sheet. I'm just going

00:25:58.609 --> 00:26:00.470
to have people come into my studio and just do

00:26:00.470 --> 00:26:03.750
a bunch of fuck -ass poses and be like, isn't

00:26:03.750 --> 00:26:06.670
that great for you? As your joints go, help me.

00:26:07.369 --> 00:26:16.470
Please. Oh, God. Yoga talk. We'll be back. All

00:26:16.470 --> 00:26:19.710
right. We are back, everybody. So apparently

00:26:19.710 --> 00:26:23.210
we weren't kicked off the planet. By Palantir,

00:26:23.250 --> 00:26:26.769
so. Or Merked. Or Merked. By SWAT, looking at

00:26:26.769 --> 00:26:28.910
the flock cameras. Still kind of peeking out

00:26:28.910 --> 00:26:31.150
your window. I think we're okay. Yeah. We're

00:26:31.150 --> 00:26:32.829
all right right now. I have flock cameras. That's

00:26:32.829 --> 00:26:36.910
another discussion. Anyway, we are back, ladies

00:26:36.910 --> 00:26:39.470
and gentlemen. Mark and Aiden and the Mark Moe

00:26:39.470 --> 00:26:42.289
Show. It's time for Carpe Diem. You find beautiful

00:26:42.289 --> 00:26:44.609
people, send us DMs, and we read them on the

00:26:44.609 --> 00:26:47.069
air. And if they're in the form of a question,

00:26:47.309 --> 00:26:52.630
well, we might. We can. We have the ability to

00:26:52.630 --> 00:26:55.650
answer it. To answer the question. But sometimes,

00:26:56.069 --> 00:27:03.009
no. Most times, no. All the time. We need a little

00:27:03.009 --> 00:27:07.910
something. Pizazz. Well, pizazz. Paper, as it

00:27:07.910 --> 00:27:11.369
were. Green colored paper. Moolah. With numbers

00:27:11.369 --> 00:27:15.269
on it and dead presidents. In order for us to

00:27:15.269 --> 00:27:19.369
go, oh, what is your name? Oh. Is that a question?

00:27:19.509 --> 00:27:22.259
Is that a question? Wow. You know, and you'll

00:27:22.259 --> 00:27:26.559
catch our attention with a 10 spot and maybe

00:27:26.559 --> 00:27:31.240
a 20 spot. But Benji. Now we're talking. Now

00:27:31.240 --> 00:27:32.259
we're talking. That's going to get you on the

00:27:32.259 --> 00:27:35.619
show. Yeah, exactly. That might even be more.

00:27:35.940 --> 00:27:38.119
I mean, I might even put your name in the description.

00:27:38.119 --> 00:27:42.000
I might throw you a foot pick. Whoa. Just to

00:27:42.000 --> 00:27:44.640
one lucky DMer, that's what I'm saying. Might

00:27:44.640 --> 00:27:47.019
take two or three Benjis, but... That's true.

00:27:47.140 --> 00:27:49.500
Yeah. That is definitely a good point. So I'm

00:27:49.500 --> 00:27:51.740
going to kick it off here today with Carpe Diem

00:27:51.740 --> 00:27:57.200
at Tully Scully 4. Hi, guys. I'm a huge fan of

00:27:57.200 --> 00:28:00.259
Fall. I love everything about it. What are your

00:28:00.259 --> 00:28:03.299
thoughts on the season? Greatest season of all

00:28:03.299 --> 00:28:08.549
the four. Yeah. No notes. I mean... It's beautiful

00:28:08.549 --> 00:28:11.950
outside. Leaves turn a beautiful shade of orange

00:28:11.950 --> 00:28:16.029
and sometimes red. Absolutely gorgeous. The weather,

00:28:16.130 --> 00:28:19.690
breezy, 55 degrees, hoodie weather. Get real.

00:28:19.950 --> 00:28:24.009
Yeah, usually for me, like mid -September to

00:28:24.009 --> 00:28:26.730
early November. That is just the sweet spot.

00:28:26.950 --> 00:28:30.410
Yeah, those two perfect months of time. Where

00:28:30.410 --> 00:28:32.990
you can just get your flannel on and your jeans

00:28:32.990 --> 00:28:37.009
and your boots, grab a cold one, sit by a fire

00:28:37.009 --> 00:28:40.000
pit. Enjoy your day. Catch a football game. Like,

00:28:40.019 --> 00:28:42.380
all of it's great. Yeah, because it's post -mosquito

00:28:42.380 --> 00:28:44.859
season. Right, they're dead. But the overnight

00:28:44.859 --> 00:28:47.279
temps aren't freezing yet. Nope, so you can have

00:28:47.279 --> 00:28:50.059
your window open. Yeah, all of it is good. All

00:28:50.059 --> 00:28:51.900
of it is good. Fall, perfect. Turn your air conditioner

00:28:51.900 --> 00:28:56.160
off. American football, check. Check. Yeah, it's

00:28:56.160 --> 00:28:58.119
all great. Yeah. It's all great, Tully Scully.

00:28:58.119 --> 00:29:00.200
Don't gotta kick the furnace on just yet. Nope,

00:29:00.220 --> 00:29:02.400
not quite yet. Not quite yet. And apparently

00:29:02.400 --> 00:29:08.180
due to El Nino, we may not have to at all. Well,

00:29:08.319 --> 00:29:12.200
that's also dystopian, but you know. Yeah, that's

00:29:12.200 --> 00:29:14.279
true. It is a money saver, at least for the winner.

00:29:14.480 --> 00:29:18.200
Indeed it is. At Jeffy Jefferton, I moved to

00:29:18.200 --> 00:29:20.359
the United States for work. I live in Chicago.

00:29:20.579 --> 00:29:23.380
What are five things that I need to do? I would

00:29:23.380 --> 00:29:27.920
say drink water, eat, sleep, maybe try and get

00:29:27.920 --> 00:29:33.069
10 ,000 steps a day. If you're able. And I crack

00:29:33.069 --> 00:29:35.869
a cold one if you're into that. That's my big

00:29:35.869 --> 00:29:38.369
five. He could pretty much do that anywhere,

00:29:38.490 --> 00:29:43.230
yeah. Well, sure. That's kind of what I was thinking.

00:29:43.230 --> 00:29:45.289
Did I misunderstand the question? Perhaps like

00:29:45.289 --> 00:29:47.970
what should he do in Chicago, baby? Oh, I see.

00:29:48.230 --> 00:29:53.049
I see. Like go to a Cubs game. Eat, sleep. Get

00:29:53.049 --> 00:29:55.190
your steps in. Probably take a shower. Yeah,

00:29:55.190 --> 00:29:57.390
showers are good. Yeah. Yeah, you want to wash

00:29:57.390 --> 00:29:59.750
your ass. Yeah, I don't know. Cubs game is good.

00:30:00.210 --> 00:30:02.549
Cubs game is good. I'd say watch a Bulls game,

00:30:02.710 --> 00:30:06.490
but they're not very good. Not yet. Yeah, I mean,

00:30:06.529 --> 00:30:09.630
yeah, catch the Cubs in PCA. Caleb and the Bears,

00:30:09.890 --> 00:30:11.990
like, that's your highlight sports -wise. It's

00:30:11.990 --> 00:30:14.410
a big one and two. Walk or bike along the lake.

00:30:14.809 --> 00:30:17.130
Oh, yeah. That's solid, especially in the fall

00:30:17.130 --> 00:30:19.450
that we just talked about. Nighttime drive across

00:30:19.450 --> 00:30:21.470
Lakeshore Drive. Lakeshore Drive. Beautiful.

00:30:22.130 --> 00:30:24.869
The Chicago bar scene's pretty epic, so I would

00:30:24.869 --> 00:30:26.990
just say go to the near north. If you get a chance.

00:30:27.640 --> 00:30:32.359
The Skyview decks, Sears Tower, 100 % recommend.

00:30:32.740 --> 00:30:35.519
Beautiful. Oh, yeah. It's almost surreal. It

00:30:35.519 --> 00:30:37.400
kind of is. It's like a painting almost. Yeah.

00:30:37.460 --> 00:30:40.019
Every window you look out, there's just massive

00:30:40.019 --> 00:30:42.980
sprawls of buildings you're looking down on from

00:30:42.980 --> 00:30:46.400
the street. You have to crick your neck up just

00:30:46.400 --> 00:30:49.509
to see. Just to see, yeah. I would then I would

00:30:49.509 --> 00:30:52.210
probably conclude with Chicago is one of the

00:30:52.210 --> 00:30:55.089
best food cities in the world. So whether you're

00:30:55.089 --> 00:30:58.410
you're down for like a fruity Michelin five star

00:30:58.410 --> 00:31:01.049
Michelin kind of experience, you got. Restaurants

00:31:01.049 --> 00:31:04.230
there for that. But we've also got things that

00:31:04.230 --> 00:31:07.289
are unique to Chicago, like the Italian beef

00:31:07.289 --> 00:31:10.130
sandwich, like Chicago pizza. And when I say

00:31:10.130 --> 00:31:12.910
Chicago pizza, uh -uh, we got two kinds of pizza.

00:31:13.089 --> 00:31:15.170
You can try that deep dish or you can try the

00:31:15.170 --> 00:31:18.349
tavern style. Exactly. Both lovely. Get a little

00:31:18.349 --> 00:31:21.730
Polish cuisine in your tummy. Dude, yeah. Get

00:31:21.730 --> 00:31:24.349
yourself a Polish or a brat. That's delicious.

00:31:24.809 --> 00:31:27.549
Go out St. Paddy's Day. Get yourself a little

00:31:27.549 --> 00:31:31.410
shepherd's pie. Irish coffee. The old breaded

00:31:31.410 --> 00:31:34.190
steak sandwich from Rico Bene's or get that corned

00:31:34.190 --> 00:31:36.910
beef sandwich from Manny's. You got a lot of

00:31:36.910 --> 00:31:39.150
options. That's why you need the 10 ,000 steps

00:31:39.150 --> 00:31:41.069
a day I was mentioning is because you're going

00:31:41.069 --> 00:31:43.190
to be eating a lot of fantastic food. Because

00:31:43.190 --> 00:31:44.710
you're going to eat a lot of food. Yeah. I mean,

00:31:44.730 --> 00:31:47.490
if you're sitting there and be like, oh, I had

00:31:47.490 --> 00:31:50.140
two lemon wedges and a piece of celery. Chicago

00:31:50.140 --> 00:31:53.079
might not be for you. That's all I'm going to

00:31:53.079 --> 00:31:55.359
say. You're probably living an incredibly healthy

00:31:55.359 --> 00:31:58.839
lifestyle, but there's a huge part of Chicago

00:31:58.839 --> 00:32:01.420
you're not going to be able to enjoy. Yeah. And

00:32:01.420 --> 00:32:05.500
Chicagoans built different, I'd say. Oh, Chicagoans

00:32:05.500 --> 00:32:07.279
are built different. You're down one of those

00:32:07.279 --> 00:32:09.759
like 16 -inch Italian beefs and you're like,

00:32:09.900 --> 00:32:12.700
hmm, could go for some fries right now too. Yeah.

00:32:12.900 --> 00:32:15.819
No, and I think that's another thing too is Chicagoans

00:32:15.819 --> 00:32:17.519
are built different. So when you get out and

00:32:17.519 --> 00:32:22.559
about in Chicago. Like, it's big city, but it's

00:32:22.559 --> 00:32:26.400
also kind of the Midwestern folksy, like, most

00:32:26.400 --> 00:32:29.339
people are kind of chill and cool. Like, Chicago

00:32:29.339 --> 00:32:32.079
has that vibe. Oh, yeah. Check out some street

00:32:32.079 --> 00:32:35.380
performers, dude. Yes. Yeah, man. And just the

00:32:35.380 --> 00:32:38.440
street fairs and all the events and stuff because

00:32:38.440 --> 00:32:42.160
Chicago is loaded with them. Yeah. It's a great

00:32:42.160 --> 00:32:45.880
town. It's a good time. Yeah. If you're like

00:32:45.880 --> 00:32:49.319
new, new to Chicago, dude, get like three or

00:32:49.319 --> 00:32:51.039
four winter jackets. You're going to have to

00:32:51.039 --> 00:32:53.819
layer them up come the dead of January. Because

00:32:53.819 --> 00:32:56.740
you're going to have a time. Yeah. It's miserable.

00:32:57.160 --> 00:32:59.960
Yeah. The Windy City was given that name because

00:32:59.960 --> 00:33:02.819
of the politicians, because they just blab so

00:33:02.819 --> 00:33:05.740
much that. The wind from their mouths. That's

00:33:05.740 --> 00:33:08.740
kind of what that was supposed to be. But legitimately,

00:33:08.779 --> 00:33:11.920
the wind off the lake in the wintertime is brutal.

00:33:12.079 --> 00:33:15.140
It's a thing. Yeah, it's a thing. And if you

00:33:15.140 --> 00:33:18.960
are from a very temperate climate, I'm not sure

00:33:18.960 --> 00:33:21.720
what country you came from or what part of the

00:33:21.720 --> 00:33:25.240
U .S. you came from. But, you know, people that

00:33:25.240 --> 00:33:28.180
come from like Florida or Cali or Hawaii or Texas

00:33:28.180 --> 00:33:30.700
and they come up here. They're not prepared for

00:33:30.700 --> 00:33:32.400
that first winter. Chicago is a different kind

00:33:32.400 --> 00:33:34.420
of cold. It will smack you in the face. Oh, yeah.

00:33:34.660 --> 00:33:37.440
Yeah, from the ice and the snow and the temperatures.

00:33:37.480 --> 00:33:40.599
And it's a thing. It's a thing. It's primarily

00:33:40.599 --> 00:33:44.099
why years ago I started underdressing in the

00:33:44.099 --> 00:33:47.279
fall. So, like, late November comes early December

00:33:47.279 --> 00:33:50.299
and those temps start dipping. Like most people,

00:33:50.400 --> 00:33:52.460
oh, they break their parkas out and they get

00:33:52.460 --> 00:33:54.759
their ski caps and all this other kind of stuff.

00:33:55.140 --> 00:34:00.359
And me, I just continue on with the hoodies or

00:34:00.359 --> 00:34:03.579
with the flannels. And am I cold? Yes, but I'm

00:34:03.579 --> 00:34:06.640
training myself. So when we get to February,

00:34:06.940 --> 00:34:09.139
I'm good. People are freezing their ass off and

00:34:09.139 --> 00:34:11.550
I'm just kind of cold. Yeah. It's like not that

00:34:11.550 --> 00:34:13.610
big of a deal. You do have to be ready for negative

00:34:13.610 --> 00:34:16.469
30 degree wind chills. That will happen a handful

00:34:16.469 --> 00:34:18.730
of times. Yes. Oh, yeah. Over the course of winter.

00:34:18.789 --> 00:34:21.150
And if you train yourself properly, it will be

00:34:21.150 --> 00:34:23.409
cold like it will be for everybody, but you'll

00:34:23.409 --> 00:34:25.329
deal with it a lot better than others will. Right.

00:34:25.989 --> 00:34:28.210
100%. And then when it starts getting up to 20,

00:34:28.269 --> 00:34:30.929
25 degrees in the positives. You might feel like

00:34:30.929 --> 00:34:33.030
wearing shorts outside, bro. Oh, dude, I swear

00:34:33.030 --> 00:34:35.829
to God. Like when early spring hits, so you get

00:34:35.829 --> 00:34:38.489
late February, early March, and it's regularly

00:34:38.489 --> 00:34:41.650
kind of upper 30s and into the 40s. Like, oh,

00:34:41.710 --> 00:34:43.510
yeah, I'm shedding clothes. I'm like, oh, man.

00:34:43.650 --> 00:34:45.369
I'm like, it's nice outside, and people are still

00:34:45.369 --> 00:34:47.250
like, oh, my God, what a blustery day. And it's

00:34:47.250 --> 00:34:49.829
like, are you kidding me? It's beautiful. Bro,

00:34:49.869 --> 00:34:51.010
I'm about to walk by the lake. I'm wearing a

00:34:51.010 --> 00:34:52.829
t -shirt right now. Oh, yeah, for sure. Yeah,

00:34:52.869 --> 00:34:58.469
no doubt. All righty. At Pedro's Milky. Whoa.

00:34:59.010 --> 00:35:03.360
Hmm. Color me interesting. I'm an entrepreneur.

00:35:04.860 --> 00:35:07.559
Spitballing here. What do you guys think about

00:35:07.559 --> 00:35:11.179
Rat Milk? Oh, my God. Dude, we were just talking

00:35:11.179 --> 00:35:14.320
about this. We had an entire... God, I forget

00:35:14.320 --> 00:35:16.000
what it was. I think it was still season four.

00:35:16.380 --> 00:35:20.539
Yeah. We had... multiple episodes on diatribes

00:35:20.539 --> 00:35:24.199
about the, just think of the protein macros of

00:35:24.199 --> 00:35:27.420
rat milk, the healthy fat content. We actually

00:35:27.420 --> 00:35:29.739
looked it up and it's kind of impressive. They

00:35:29.739 --> 00:35:32.000
say, oh, it's not meant for human consumption,

00:35:32.219 --> 00:35:35.219
but neither is raw cow's milk. Correct. Just

00:35:35.219 --> 00:35:37.400
pasteurize the rat milk. Milk in general is not

00:35:37.400 --> 00:35:40.340
made for us. Right, right. It is when you're

00:35:40.340 --> 00:35:42.320
an infant and it's not when you're anything else.

00:35:42.380 --> 00:35:45.199
No. Just pasteurize the rat milk. It might be

00:35:45.199 --> 00:35:47.840
a little thick. We heard it was thick. But I'm

00:35:47.840 --> 00:35:50.639
in. Bodybuilders have not yet tapped into the

00:35:50.639 --> 00:35:54.960
rat milk possibilities. Right, and I think that

00:35:54.960 --> 00:35:56.780
might be your clientele right there. They're

00:35:56.780 --> 00:36:00.119
all doing that virgin chud bullshittery like,

00:36:00.239 --> 00:36:03.320
oh, I eat steaks and chicken. No, no, you need

00:36:03.320 --> 00:36:05.719
to do the Chad move. Yeah, you do. You gotta

00:36:05.719 --> 00:36:09.239
get that big dick rat milk. Yeah, you do. Yeah,

00:36:09.239 --> 00:36:12.119
man. Have some rats. I stand by that. Pedro's

00:36:12.119 --> 00:36:14.219
milky. You're on to something, my guy. Do it.

00:36:14.280 --> 00:36:16.489
You're on to something, but... We do take proceeds.

00:36:16.809 --> 00:36:19.949
Indeed we do. Yeah. Yeah. It was our idea. Indeed

00:36:19.949 --> 00:36:25.909
it was. Finally, at StonerStanley420, Momo and

00:36:25.909 --> 00:36:30.110
Alan, it's the day for mothers. No work for me

00:36:30.110 --> 00:36:34.909
on the Labor's Day. Have a baby. I think he's...

00:36:34.909 --> 00:36:39.849
He's got the spirit. He does. Oh, boy. I think

00:36:39.849 --> 00:36:43.780
he's got it a little... It's not that... Not

00:36:43.780 --> 00:36:46.420
that labor. Not that labor. Although it could

00:36:46.420 --> 00:36:49.019
be. That is labor. It's laborious, I've heard

00:36:49.019 --> 00:36:53.860
people say. Indeed it is. But to be fair, I don't

00:36:53.860 --> 00:36:57.440
know how much he labors in general. I don't know

00:36:57.440 --> 00:37:00.079
how he has an income. I don't either. I don't

00:37:00.079 --> 00:37:03.860
think he does. No. He's got to grow his own herbs.

00:37:04.099 --> 00:37:07.980
Herbal supplements. Yeah. Herbs. Herbs. Oh my

00:37:07.980 --> 00:37:10.860
goodness. I never thought of Labor Day like that.

00:37:10.960 --> 00:37:13.360
It's Mother's Day Part 2. It's Mother's Day Part

00:37:13.360 --> 00:37:15.599
2. But it also includes the workers. It can be

00:37:15.599 --> 00:37:18.239
both. It can be both. My executive decision,

00:37:18.500 --> 00:37:21.420
I think it can be both. Stan, you're on to something.

00:37:21.659 --> 00:37:24.039
I think you're on to something. And I think for

00:37:24.039 --> 00:37:32.559
the mothers who labored, for you, created a labor

00:37:32.559 --> 00:37:35.420
workforce. This is true. So you can draw the

00:37:35.420 --> 00:37:38.760
line. I think it's both. I'm with you, 100%.

00:37:38.760 --> 00:37:40.699
I think Stan was definitely on to something.

00:37:40.760 --> 00:37:43.159
He was cooking. He was probably also baking,

00:37:43.300 --> 00:37:46.139
if you know what I mean. He was baking. No, he

00:37:46.139 --> 00:37:47.719
was cooking with that idea. Baking pancakes.

00:37:49.260 --> 00:37:51.880
It's a different one altogether. Anyway, how

00:37:51.880 --> 00:37:55.760
about what you got there? I got a DM here. Huge

00:37:55.760 --> 00:37:58.659
fan of this guy, by the way. DM from Spencer

00:37:58.659 --> 00:38:02.800
from iCarly. Oh, let's go. Checking in. First

00:38:02.800 --> 00:38:04.679
DM I've ever had from Spencer. That's pretty

00:38:04.679 --> 00:38:08.820
cool. Love that. I love tacos on a stick, but

00:38:08.820 --> 00:38:12.159
I have no idea how they put the tacos on the

00:38:12.159 --> 00:38:17.019
stick. This is true because I've seen the show.

00:38:17.119 --> 00:38:21.300
I think it's Tebow at the shop and he puts like

00:38:21.300 --> 00:38:24.619
tacos on a stick, but they look like corn tortillas,

00:38:24.619 --> 00:38:27.019
like crispy corn tortillas. I don't know how

00:38:27.019 --> 00:38:30.980
you do that. I could see a flour tortilla taco.

00:38:31.340 --> 00:38:34.150
Yeah. Maybe if you roll it up into a little burrito,

00:38:34.170 --> 00:38:35.909
you could put that on a stick. You could maybe

00:38:35.909 --> 00:38:38.550
do that. I don't understand the corn tortilla

00:38:38.550 --> 00:38:40.530
on a stick. I don't understand that concept.

00:38:40.630 --> 00:38:43.630
I think that's what Tebow does. Yeah, that's

00:38:43.630 --> 00:38:47.110
a really good question. And then how, of course,

00:38:47.110 --> 00:38:48.929
I'm asking a follow -up question, even though

00:38:48.929 --> 00:38:51.630
we haven't solved this one. Right. Once the tacos

00:38:51.630 --> 00:38:54.989
are on the stick, assuming the corn tortillas

00:38:54.989 --> 00:38:57.849
don't disintegrate, do you eat it like a kebab?

00:38:58.480 --> 00:39:00.360
I've got questions too, Spencer. Another excellent

00:39:00.360 --> 00:39:02.760
question. Because I don't know if that taco is

00:39:02.760 --> 00:39:05.380
on a stick. And there's things like lettuce and

00:39:05.380 --> 00:39:07.340
tomato and cheese. That shit's just pouring out.

00:39:07.440 --> 00:39:09.539
Am I right? I have a hard enough time eating

00:39:09.539 --> 00:39:13.880
a taco out of my hand. This is true. Hmm. It

00:39:13.880 --> 00:39:15.800
left me with more questions. More questions than

00:39:15.800 --> 00:39:18.019
answers. Yeah. I don't even think Spencer asked

00:39:18.019 --> 00:39:19.780
a question. I think that was just a statement.

00:39:19.840 --> 00:39:23.019
I think it was. Inquisitive, nonetheless. No

00:39:23.019 --> 00:39:27.960
doubt. I got a DM here. From SweetStank55. Ooh.

00:39:28.380 --> 00:39:34.059
What smells like danger? What smells like danger?

00:39:34.119 --> 00:39:38.139
What smells like danger from SweetStank55? Well...

00:39:38.139 --> 00:39:42.860
I would say the sulfur they add to natural gas.

00:39:43.139 --> 00:39:45.579
That smells like danger. If I smell that in my

00:39:45.579 --> 00:39:48.960
house, I'm bouncing. Mm -hmm. That smells like

00:39:48.960 --> 00:39:53.960
danger. Gas is danger. Um... Hmm. I would say

00:39:53.960 --> 00:39:59.690
that... That lead type smell of blood. Oh, yeah,

00:39:59.789 --> 00:40:01.329
yeah, yeah. If you walk in like an old house

00:40:01.329 --> 00:40:03.070
and that's the first thing that hits your nose,

00:40:03.110 --> 00:40:05.710
shut the door and go back the other way. Yep.

00:40:06.389 --> 00:40:08.590
100%. Oh, it's a murder house. I'm leaving. Yep.

00:40:08.849 --> 00:40:11.789
See ya. Yeah. I've already left enough fingerprints.

00:40:12.869 --> 00:40:17.409
Exactly. Gasoline next to a car. That's bad.

00:40:17.489 --> 00:40:19.929
I'm not going to start that car. No. Or stay

00:40:19.929 --> 00:40:23.510
near it for any longer. By the way, just as a

00:40:23.510 --> 00:40:26.630
side comment, I've been all over the country,

00:40:26.710 --> 00:40:30.269
right? 44 or 5 states. I lose count. Anyway,

00:40:30.429 --> 00:40:33.429
been to a lot of places. And sometimes, especially

00:40:33.429 --> 00:40:35.630
in the south or out in the plains, in the middle

00:40:35.630 --> 00:40:38.510
of nowhere, you get these concepts of gas station

00:40:38.510 --> 00:40:40.829
plus this business plus this business. It's all

00:40:40.829 --> 00:40:43.670
part of like one thing. How in the world, because

00:40:43.670 --> 00:40:45.969
I've seen this multiple times, speaking of the

00:40:45.969 --> 00:40:48.889
smell of gas and it being dangerous, do you come

00:40:48.889 --> 00:40:52.289
up with the concept, gas station, liquor store

00:40:52.289 --> 00:40:57.070
fireworks all of that or or gas station liquor

00:40:57.070 --> 00:41:02.710
store gun store how does that work exactly without

00:41:02.710 --> 00:41:06.030
it being like oh this is the place where people

00:41:06.030 --> 00:41:09.349
come to die right right surely there has to be

00:41:09.349 --> 00:41:12.969
some kind of osha oversight of like may you need

00:41:12.969 --> 00:41:15.829
firewalls in between this you can't be the same

00:41:15.829 --> 00:41:19.670
business Like, how is that allowed? How does

00:41:19.670 --> 00:41:21.809
the county government show up to like, you know,

00:41:21.809 --> 00:41:23.670
mark off and approve things and just show up

00:41:23.670 --> 00:41:26.210
and be like, I'm just going to leave. Imagine

00:41:26.210 --> 00:41:29.010
the fire marshal walking up on scene like, oh,

00:41:29.010 --> 00:41:32.389
my fucking God. Yeah. He's like, so let me get

00:41:32.389 --> 00:41:34.090
this straight. So 18 Wheeler is going to pull

00:41:34.090 --> 00:41:35.650
up. He's going to put about 100 gallons of that

00:41:35.650 --> 00:41:38.150
into there. And then he's probably going to go

00:41:38.150 --> 00:41:40.010
in and get himself about four or five shooters

00:41:40.010 --> 00:41:43.150
and shoot off some Roman candles. Approved. Count

00:41:43.150 --> 00:41:46.320
me in. Yeah, I just want to sit across the street

00:41:46.320 --> 00:41:48.039
and see what happens. Oh, we'll stage the fire

00:41:48.039 --> 00:41:50.139
truck there too. Yeah, exactly. We'll just be

00:41:50.139 --> 00:41:52.880
on standby. The brand new fire station built

00:41:52.880 --> 00:41:59.039
across from the shell slash fireworks slash liquor

00:41:59.039 --> 00:42:01.980
store. And a gun show next door. Yeah, right.

00:42:02.699 --> 00:42:04.800
Speaking of, though, you make a good point. Another

00:42:04.800 --> 00:42:08.920
smell of danger is like that black powder, gunpowder,

00:42:08.920 --> 00:42:11.980
firework smell. If you smell it when it's not

00:42:11.980 --> 00:42:14.789
the 4th of July. Yeah. It means someone's been

00:42:14.789 --> 00:42:18.329
shooting near you. Kind of a sulfury smell or

00:42:18.329 --> 00:42:20.630
whatever that smell is. Sulfury, black powder.

00:42:20.690 --> 00:42:23.670
It's like very, it smells like the 4th of July.

00:42:23.809 --> 00:42:26.650
You know, that can be alarming too. By the way,

00:42:26.690 --> 00:42:29.659
when it's not the 4th of July. I'll even give

00:42:29.659 --> 00:42:33.179
you maybe Memorial Day or, like, another quote

00:42:33.179 --> 00:42:35.900
-unquote American -ish kind of holiday in the

00:42:35.900 --> 00:42:38.460
warm weather. Just stop shooting that shit off.

00:42:38.719 --> 00:42:40.980
Like, who's shooting these half -shells off,

00:42:41.159 --> 00:42:46.280
like, on a Tuesday in the middle of August? It's

00:42:46.280 --> 00:42:49.619
like... Can we not? Can we not do that? Like,

00:42:49.619 --> 00:42:51.280
it's 10 o 'clock and it's like boom, ba -boom,

00:42:51.380 --> 00:42:54.079
boom, boom. I'm like, okay, if we're being invaded,

00:42:54.340 --> 00:42:57.739
I'll let that slide. Right. If we're not, come

00:42:57.739 --> 00:43:00.869
on. Get real. Get real. Yeah. I think I have

00:43:00.869 --> 00:43:03.530
one more to answer this question, because my

00:43:03.530 --> 00:43:06.789
last car, beautiful Toyota Camry, faultlessly

00:43:06.789 --> 00:43:09.730
reliable, until it started blowing a little white

00:43:09.730 --> 00:43:11.670
smoke at the back, and I knew it was already

00:43:11.670 --> 00:43:13.949
burning oil. The oil rings on the pistons were

00:43:13.949 --> 00:43:16.670
shot. And then it blew a little white smoke,

00:43:16.909 --> 00:43:21.170
smoke smelt like gunpowder, and death. And I

00:43:21.170 --> 00:43:26.150
was like, oh. Oh, that's a head gasket. Yeah.

00:43:26.309 --> 00:43:28.909
That smells like a danger, a different type of

00:43:28.909 --> 00:43:31.750
danger. The danger of my car exploding when I'm

00:43:31.750 --> 00:43:35.110
driving it. Aiden puts the key in and turns it

00:43:35.110 --> 00:43:39.429
and the car goes, help me, daddy. And that's

00:43:39.429 --> 00:43:41.809
why I sold it. Pleading for its life. Sold that

00:43:41.809 --> 00:43:45.130
for 700 bones. Wow. Yeah. That's impressive.

00:43:45.289 --> 00:43:48.710
I'm surprised I even got that much. Final DM

00:43:48.710 --> 00:43:52.610
I got today. Pants McDungus. What animals...

00:43:52.969 --> 00:43:56.369
Aren't as scary as they seem. And also, when's

00:43:56.369 --> 00:44:01.150
the last time you shat yourself? Wow. Two completely

00:44:01.150 --> 00:44:03.769
random thoughts. Yeah. I don't know how he got

00:44:03.769 --> 00:44:06.349
two questions in one. He must have given us two

00:44:06.349 --> 00:44:09.630
Benjis. But yeah, what animals aren't as scary

00:44:09.630 --> 00:44:11.269
as they seem? And when was the last time you

00:44:11.269 --> 00:44:16.989
shat yourself? A curious inquisition there. I

00:44:16.989 --> 00:44:20.789
would say what animals aren't as scary as they

00:44:20.789 --> 00:44:24.539
seem? Tarantulas. Tarantulas, terrifying, even

00:44:24.539 --> 00:44:28.239
to me. But chances of them stinging you or, like,

00:44:28.239 --> 00:44:29.719
slimming down. Or biting you or anything? Slimming

00:44:29.719 --> 00:44:32.940
down. Super low. I mean, they're going to run

00:44:32.940 --> 00:44:35.519
from you before you probably get the chance to

00:44:35.519 --> 00:44:37.900
run from them. That's a fair comment. Tarantulas,

00:44:38.139 --> 00:44:41.179
I would say the larger scorpions. Still poisonous,

00:44:41.280 --> 00:44:44.139
still dangerous, but it's the tiny scorpions.

00:44:44.139 --> 00:44:46.239
Are the ones that can kill you. Yeah. Because

00:44:46.239 --> 00:44:47.760
they're young and they're dumb and they can't

00:44:47.760 --> 00:44:49.960
control their venom. Right, exactly. Disbursement.

00:44:49.960 --> 00:44:52.579
Yeah. And also like garden snakes, they're not

00:44:52.579 --> 00:44:54.719
going to do anything. No. They're just going

00:44:54.719 --> 00:44:56.940
to slither away and then you're probably going

00:44:56.940 --> 00:44:59.699
to shat yourself. Yeah. To me, most animals scare

00:44:59.699 --> 00:45:02.920
me. I mean, there's cats that scare me, dude.

00:45:03.840 --> 00:45:06.940
So I just, I don't, I just don't care for animals.

00:45:07.119 --> 00:45:09.300
So like, that's why I probably don't mind eating

00:45:09.300 --> 00:45:13.400
them. So I just, you know, it's, it's Darwin.

00:45:13.500 --> 00:45:16.550
So, you know. Maybe someday deers and cows and

00:45:16.550 --> 00:45:18.070
stuff will evolve and they'll be able to carry

00:45:18.070 --> 00:45:20.070
weapons and say, no burger for you anymore and

00:45:20.070 --> 00:45:22.590
be like, ah, damn. Well, shucks. Oh, well. More

00:45:22.590 --> 00:45:26.989
pork chops. Sorry, Piggy. So, yeah. I don't know.

00:45:27.210 --> 00:45:29.269
Seems like every scary animal is legitimately

00:45:29.269 --> 00:45:33.409
scary. Yeah. I think just by sheer size, elephants

00:45:33.409 --> 00:45:36.690
can be terrifying. But elephants generally are

00:45:36.690 --> 00:45:40.210
remarkably kind and intelligent creatures. Right.

00:45:40.269 --> 00:45:42.369
But if you piss one off, he'll tusk your ass.

00:45:42.590 --> 00:45:45.320
Yeah. So don't piss off an elephant. Right. And

00:45:45.320 --> 00:45:48.380
hippos, from what I hear, they're dicks. Yeah.

00:45:48.619 --> 00:45:51.000
Very, very dangerous. You look at a hippo and

00:45:51.000 --> 00:45:52.780
you're like, oh, look at that cute little guy

00:45:52.780 --> 00:45:54.679
and he'll come over and kill you. Yeah. That

00:45:54.679 --> 00:45:56.820
one kid that wanted a hippopotamus for Christmas.

00:45:57.159 --> 00:45:58.940
There's a reason we haven't heard from him. Dude

00:45:58.940 --> 00:46:01.480
got fucking marked by a hippo. I will remember

00:46:01.480 --> 00:46:06.119
you. Yeah, for sure. And then, I don't know,

00:46:06.280 --> 00:46:08.079
four years old, five years old. I don't know

00:46:08.079 --> 00:46:10.320
when I shat myself. Yeah, gotta be decades ago.

00:46:10.860 --> 00:46:13.940
Yeah, it's a long time ago. I'm usually in control

00:46:13.940 --> 00:46:17.440
of my poop chute. It's just kind of much older

00:46:17.440 --> 00:46:19.139
orange people that have a problem with their

00:46:19.139 --> 00:46:23.880
shits. Yeah, Oval Office type beat. Yeah, no,

00:46:23.960 --> 00:46:27.500
I'm pretty chill in the shit department. Yeah.

00:46:27.599 --> 00:46:29.880
I would say. Yeah, so I guess we're lucky that

00:46:29.880 --> 00:46:33.099
way. Ask me in 10 years. Could end up being a

00:46:33.099 --> 00:46:35.159
different situation. It might change. Yeah, I

00:46:35.159 --> 00:46:40.300
hate to let you know. Anyway, it's time. Well,

00:46:40.320 --> 00:46:44.820
Southside Theater, it is where we reenact scenes

00:46:44.820 --> 00:46:49.320
from famous movies or shows. But we had a little

00:46:49.320 --> 00:46:52.659
flair, a little Southside flair. A pizzazz. A

00:46:52.659 --> 00:46:55.780
little pizzazz, if you will. We perform these

00:46:55.780 --> 00:47:00.780
as Southsiders, Chicago Southsiders. So last

00:47:00.780 --> 00:47:03.559
week we did The Notebook, which I thought was

00:47:03.559 --> 00:47:06.559
pretty funny. We've done Pulp Fiction. We did

00:47:06.559 --> 00:47:09.309
an episode of Doctor Who. Did a few good men.

00:47:09.590 --> 00:47:15.030
Yeah. This week, another classic. A scene from

00:47:15.030 --> 00:47:18.570
The Wizard of Oz. And this particular scene,

00:47:18.809 --> 00:47:22.070
which I'm sure most of you will know, is the

00:47:22.070 --> 00:47:25.769
scene where Dorothy... It goes on the little

00:47:25.769 --> 00:47:28.889
circly yellow brick road and all the little munchkins.

00:47:28.989 --> 00:47:30.409
That's what they call them. Don't cancel me.

00:47:30.929 --> 00:47:33.429
All the little munchkins, little people follow

00:47:33.429 --> 00:47:35.949
the yellow brick road. Right. They're doing their

00:47:35.949 --> 00:47:39.789
little thing. That sounded sad. Close enough.

00:47:39.869 --> 00:47:42.510
I watch a more urban version. So they like they're

00:47:42.510 --> 00:47:45.530
they're doing their whole thing. Right. And by

00:47:45.530 --> 00:47:47.150
the way, there's certain metal songs they do

00:47:47.150 --> 00:47:49.329
to that scene. And the metal song kind of matches

00:47:49.329 --> 00:47:51.150
up to Dorothy skipping and all the munchkins

00:47:51.150 --> 00:47:54.230
headbanging. It's hilarious. So, yeah, you can

00:47:54.230 --> 00:47:56.190
find that, I'm sure, on TikTok or Insta, but

00:47:56.190 --> 00:47:59.190
it's hilarious. Anyway, so she's kind of going

00:47:59.190 --> 00:48:00.969
round and round, follow the yellow brick. We

00:48:00.969 --> 00:48:03.190
know what you're doing. Stop singing it. You

00:48:03.190 --> 00:48:05.610
don't have to tell us. You're following the yellow

00:48:05.610 --> 00:48:10.010
brick road noted go. Anyway, she kind of does

00:48:10.010 --> 00:48:12.369
it and she heads out of town. Now, the first

00:48:12.369 --> 00:48:15.210
person she comes across is Mr. Scarecrow. Good

00:48:15.210 --> 00:48:18.269
man. He's a good man. So we are reenacting that

00:48:18.269 --> 00:48:23.550
scene where she meets the first of many. characters

00:48:23.550 --> 00:48:27.690
in The Scarecrow. The question, as we ask every

00:48:27.690 --> 00:48:33.110
week, Aidan Maloney, do you want to portray Dorothy

00:48:33.110 --> 00:48:37.010
or The Scarecrow? I'm feeling a little Dorothy

00:48:37.010 --> 00:48:39.010
today. Are you feeling a little Dorothy? I'm

00:48:39.010 --> 00:48:41.510
feeling Dorothy myself. Alrighty. Well then,

00:48:41.590 --> 00:48:45.110
without further ado, this is Southside Theatre's

00:48:45.110 --> 00:48:50.809
production, The Wizard of Oz. Follow the yellow

00:48:50.809 --> 00:48:57.139
brick road. Follow the yellow. Which way do we

00:48:57.139 --> 00:49:01.340
go? That way is very nice over by there. Oh,

00:49:01.579 --> 00:49:06.639
who said that? Don't be silly, Toto. Scarecrows

00:49:06.639 --> 00:49:11.900
don't talk. It's pleasant down that way, too,

00:49:12.000 --> 00:49:17.400
over by there. That's funny, my friend. Wasn't

00:49:17.400 --> 00:49:21.099
he pointing the other way? Of course. People

00:49:21.099 --> 00:49:26.860
do, uh, you know, go both ways. Oh. Uh, why?

00:49:27.440 --> 00:49:30.420
Hey, hey, oh. Oh, you said something, didn't

00:49:30.420 --> 00:49:33.019
you? Are you, are you doing that on purpose or

00:49:33.019 --> 00:49:36.179
you can't make up your mind? That's the trouble.

00:49:36.360 --> 00:49:39.840
I can't make up my mind. I haven't got a brain.

00:49:40.000 --> 00:49:44.119
Only straw. How can you talk if you haven't got

00:49:44.119 --> 00:49:52.199
a brain? I don't know. Some people without brains

00:49:52.199 --> 00:49:55.719
do an awful lot of talking, don't they? I guess

00:49:55.719 --> 00:49:57.980
you're right. Have you seen the president? Well,

00:49:58.059 --> 00:50:02.960
we haven't met properly, have we? Uh, no. How

00:50:02.960 --> 00:50:07.920
do you do? How do you do? Very well, thank you.

00:50:08.400 --> 00:50:13.500
Oh, I'm not feeling it all well. You see, it's

00:50:13.500 --> 00:50:17.239
very tedious being stuck up here all day long

00:50:17.239 --> 00:50:22.320
with a pole up your... Back. Oh, dear. Oh, my

00:50:22.320 --> 00:50:24.420
friend, that must be terribly uncomfortable.

00:50:24.900 --> 00:50:30.019
Can you not get down? Uh, down? No, you see,

00:50:30.260 --> 00:50:35.219
um, well, um... Oh, okay. Well, here, let me

00:50:35.219 --> 00:50:38.179
help you down. Oh, that's very kind of you there.

00:50:38.400 --> 00:50:44.079
Very kind. Oh, well, dear, I don't quite see

00:50:44.079 --> 00:50:50.079
how I can, uh... Of course, I'm not bright about

00:50:50.079 --> 00:50:55.280
doing things. But, you know, if you'll just bend

00:50:55.280 --> 00:50:58.300
the nail down in the back, maybe I'll slip off.

00:50:58.860 --> 00:51:07.840
Oh, yeah. Oh, whoa, whoa, hey. Whoops. There

00:51:07.840 --> 00:51:10.860
goes some of me again. You just dropped some

00:51:10.860 --> 00:51:15.329
of your scare? Does it hurt you? Ah, nah. I just

00:51:15.329 --> 00:51:18.230
keep picking it up and I put it back in again.

00:51:18.530 --> 00:51:25.849
Oh, my friend. My, it's good to be free. Oh,

00:51:25.849 --> 00:51:31.389
oh, oh. Did I scare you? No, no, of course not.

00:51:32.289 --> 00:51:39.969
But I didn't scare you? Uh, no. I didn't think

00:51:39.969 --> 00:51:45.960
so. Oh, oh, boo, scat. Boo, you see, I can't

00:51:45.960 --> 00:51:50.519
even scare a crow. They come from miles around

00:51:50.519 --> 00:51:54.840
just to eat in my field and laugh in my face,

00:51:54.920 --> 00:52:00.699
you know. I'm a failure because I ain't got a

00:52:00.699 --> 00:52:04.460
brain. Well, okay, my friend. What would you

00:52:04.460 --> 00:52:08.539
do with a brain if you had one? Do? Why, if I

00:52:08.539 --> 00:52:14.809
had a brain, I could while away the hours. conferring

00:52:14.809 --> 00:52:20.550
with the flowers, consulting with the rain. In

00:52:20.550 --> 00:52:25.010
my head I'd be scratching while my thoughts were

00:52:25.010 --> 00:52:31.210
busy hatching. If I only had the brain, I'd unravel

00:52:31.210 --> 00:52:36.449
every riddle for the individual in trouble or

00:52:36.449 --> 00:52:40.230
in the pain. With the thoughts you'll be thinking.

00:52:40.889 --> 00:52:44.510
You could be another Lincoln if you only had

00:52:44.510 --> 00:52:49.590
a brain. Oh, I could tell you why. The ocean's

00:52:49.590 --> 00:52:52.550
near the shore. I could think of things I never

00:52:52.550 --> 00:52:56.289
thunk before. And then I'd sit and I'd think

00:52:56.289 --> 00:53:00.469
some more. I would not just be a nothing. My

00:53:00.469 --> 00:53:03.869
head's full of stuffing. My heart is full of

00:53:03.869 --> 00:53:09.039
pain. I would dance and be merry. Life. Would

00:53:09.039 --> 00:53:14.659
be a ding -dang dairy if I only had the brain.

00:53:16.619 --> 00:53:21.619
End scene. End scene. Our first attempt at musical

00:53:21.619 --> 00:53:24.719
theater. I thought that went great. I did too.

00:53:24.820 --> 00:53:27.260
I felt really good about that. Something most

00:53:27.260 --> 00:53:29.679
people know about Southsiders is their beautiful

00:53:29.679 --> 00:53:32.820
singing voice. Oh, for sure. Yeah, they definitely

00:53:32.820 --> 00:53:35.079
have a beautiful singing voice. If you've ever

00:53:35.079 --> 00:53:40.659
been to... Oh, God. Cagney's or Rekork and Carrie

00:53:40.659 --> 00:53:45.460
or not so much Horse Thief Hollow. That's a little

00:53:45.460 --> 00:53:49.519
bit of a more elevated crowd, if you will. Ah,

00:53:49.579 --> 00:53:56.820
I see. But there are plenty of your Southside

00:53:56.820 --> 00:53:59.360
Dive Bars where you might just hear that very

00:53:59.360 --> 00:54:02.739
conversation along with the singing. Quite sing

00:54:02.739 --> 00:54:05.420
-songy. Yeah, very much so. Sing -songy, indeed.

00:54:05.980 --> 00:54:07.679

have thought about that one too um i was just

00:59:49.070 --> 00:59:51.469
thinking clancy and trench but yeah blurry face

00:59:51.469 --> 00:59:54.730
is great yeah oh that was a tough list man that

00:59:54.730 --> 00:59:58.969
was hard man i was literally like scrolling on

00:59:58.969 --> 01:00:01.289
my computer, like, looking at articles, looking

01:00:01.289 --> 01:00:05.150
at my iTunes playlists, like, picking out bands.

01:00:05.269 --> 01:00:07.909
I'm like, oh, I gotta have them. And by the time

01:00:07.909 --> 01:00:10.349
I got everything, I had, like, 30. And I'm like,

01:00:10.449 --> 01:00:13.329
I can't have 30, bro. So I literally had to,

01:00:13.349 --> 01:00:15.780
like, cut 10 of them. But I am mad at myself.

01:00:15.860 --> 01:00:18.880
I missed MCR and Paramore. Yeah. Oh, for sure.

01:00:18.980 --> 01:00:21.960
Yeah. No doubt about that. But it was fun. It

01:00:21.960 --> 01:00:23.880
was definitely a fun list, but it was tough.

01:00:24.079 --> 01:00:25.940
And that was like one of the things that I had

01:00:25.940 --> 01:00:28.599
kind of left when I went to the coffee shop this

01:00:28.599 --> 01:00:29.960
morning. I'm like, I'll just knock this out.

01:00:30.179 --> 01:00:32.260
And then once I got into it, I'm like, God damn

01:00:32.260 --> 01:00:34.340
it. I'm going to need almost an hour for this.

01:00:34.460 --> 01:00:36.300
Oh, yeah. Just kind of going through all these

01:00:36.300 --> 01:00:39.179
albums. I mean, I could have put. another 10

01:00:39.179 --> 01:00:42.280
to 15 on there. Oh, yeah. We could have made

01:00:42.280 --> 01:00:44.739
top 30 lists. A top 30. Yeah, we could have done

01:00:44.739 --> 01:00:47.460
that for sure. No doubt about it. Of course,

01:00:47.559 --> 01:00:49.599
lovely listeners, let us know in the comments,

01:00:49.760 --> 01:00:52.280
did we miss anything? Would you flip our lists

01:00:52.280 --> 01:00:56.860
around at all? We're eager to hear feedback because

01:00:56.860 --> 01:01:00.099
I know there's some shit I missed, man. 100%.

01:01:00.099 --> 01:01:03.739
Yeah, we definitely missed a lot. There's a lot

01:01:03.739 --> 01:01:05.519
of bands that I like a lot that didn't even make

01:01:05.519 --> 01:01:08.639
the list. And had I really... Given myself maybe

01:01:08.639 --> 01:01:11.000
another hour, I would have thought of all of

01:01:11.000 --> 01:01:13.619
them. Oh, sure. You know, not that it would have

01:01:13.619 --> 01:01:15.880
been any easier, but I probably would have had

01:01:15.880 --> 01:01:18.199
a honorable mention list more like Aiden's at

01:01:18.199 --> 01:01:22.500
that point. Yeah. But at any rate, we... I spent

01:01:22.500 --> 01:01:24.800
like... Sorry to interrupt. No, go ahead. After

01:01:24.800 --> 01:01:27.860
I made the list of 30, I spent like another 15

01:01:27.860 --> 01:01:30.639
minutes cutting it down to 20. And then like

01:01:30.639 --> 01:01:33.639
another 30 minutes trying to like put them in

01:01:33.639 --> 01:01:35.840
order. I'm like, how the fuck do I pick a number

01:01:35.840 --> 01:01:38.579
one? Almost impossible. How do I pick a number

01:01:38.579 --> 01:01:42.539
five? Yeah, almost impossible. So tough. But

01:01:42.539 --> 01:01:47.019
before we take our final break, we are on to

01:01:47.019 --> 01:01:50.360
quiz time. Quiz time. The time where quizzes

01:01:50.360 --> 01:01:52.659
occur. Indeed. And I know Aiden did a lot of

01:01:52.659 --> 01:01:55.119
heavy lifting on this particular show. And I

01:01:55.119 --> 01:01:57.539
was like, hey, if you want me to do a quiz for

01:01:57.539 --> 01:02:00.789
this week, he's like, nah, nah. Uh -uh. Yeah,

01:02:00.889 --> 01:02:04.829
and he decided to do it. So now I'm on the hot

01:02:04.829 --> 01:02:06.949
seat. Yes, you are. And Aiden's going to pepper

01:02:06.949 --> 01:02:11.070
me with whatever he has prepared. This quiz time

01:02:11.070 --> 01:02:14.349
has a theme. Oh, okay. I like themes. The theme

01:02:14.349 --> 01:02:19.889
is numbers. Oof, okay. Numbers. Now, I don't

01:02:19.889 --> 01:02:20.969
want you to get this. They told me there'd be

01:02:20.969 --> 01:02:23.670
no math. I was just about to say, don't get it

01:02:23.670 --> 01:02:26.599
misconstrued. There's not. an overwhelming amount

01:02:26.599 --> 01:02:29.659
of math here. Thank God. But that's your biggest

01:02:29.659 --> 01:02:32.380
hint is every answer is going to be a number.

01:02:32.579 --> 01:02:35.340
Okay. Hear that, lovely listeners? Play along

01:02:35.340 --> 01:02:38.880
at home. There are 19 questions and a potential

01:02:38.880 --> 01:02:41.579
of 19 points to be had. Okay, that's fair. So

01:02:41.579 --> 01:02:43.440
every question is just worth one point. Got it.

01:02:43.800 --> 01:02:47.539
I will let you know if an approximate answer

01:02:47.539 --> 01:02:49.920
will be good enough. Otherwise, I would prefer

01:02:49.920 --> 01:02:52.559
the exact answer. So play along at home, lovely

01:02:52.559 --> 01:02:54.800
listeners, and let us know what your scores are.

01:02:55.260 --> 01:02:58.059
Of these 19 points to be had, first and foremost,

01:02:58.320 --> 01:03:02.360
question uno. Yes. How many squares are there

01:03:02.360 --> 01:03:08.179
on a chessboard? Ooh, good question. Thank you.

01:03:08.800 --> 01:03:15.639
I think... So smart. Okay. So I'm thinking it's

01:03:15.639 --> 01:03:21.619
one of two answers. Okay. I'm going to say 64.

01:03:22.099 --> 01:03:25.920
64. Which is 8 squared, by the way. Which is

01:03:25.920 --> 01:03:28.760
correct. You got the point. I was thinking it

01:03:28.760 --> 01:03:30.820
was 64 or 80. I'm like, oh my god, which one

01:03:30.820 --> 01:03:34.619
is it? Yeah. I don't think 80 is the square of

01:03:34.619 --> 01:03:36.559
any number in particular. No, I was thinking

01:03:36.559 --> 01:03:38.599
it might have been 8 by 10, but I was just trying

01:03:38.599 --> 01:03:41.800
to figure that out. 64 is correct. Well done.

01:03:42.059 --> 01:03:46.260
How many keys are there on a grand piano? Uh,

01:03:46.820 --> 01:03:51.630
88? 88 is correct. Wow. pulled that one out of

01:03:51.630 --> 01:03:53.670
your ass man yeah i don't know where that came

01:03:53.670 --> 01:03:56.760
from because i literally I play the piano like

01:03:56.760 --> 01:03:59.280
I don't have fingers. It's just like if I were

01:03:59.280 --> 01:04:01.599
trying to do it and I had nubs. Like I just,

01:04:01.820 --> 01:04:05.820
I can't. My fingers don't work that way. Not

01:04:05.820 --> 01:04:07.599
even on a guitar. Like I really wanted to play

01:04:07.599 --> 01:04:10.300
guitar. And it's whatever that communication

01:04:10.300 --> 01:04:13.099
is between your brain and your fingers. And it

01:04:13.099 --> 01:04:15.159
just doesn't work. You know that scene in Back

01:04:15.159 --> 01:04:17.260
to the Future with Marty McFly when he starts

01:04:17.260 --> 01:04:19.219
disappearing out of the photo? Yeah. And he's

01:04:19.219 --> 01:04:22.619
playing the guitar. He's like, that's me. I'm

01:04:22.619 --> 01:04:25.380
like, oh, that's like me playing. Cool. Oh, man.

01:04:25.579 --> 01:04:28.539
Well, a great call. I believe every octave is,

01:04:28.739 --> 01:04:33.719
what is it, 5, 10, 12 keys? Yeah. Every octave

01:04:33.719 --> 01:04:36.059
is 12. And of course, there's just shy of eight

01:04:36.059 --> 01:04:38.760
octaves on a grand piano. So well done. About

01:04:38.760 --> 01:04:43.079
12 too many for me to figure out. In what year

01:04:43.079 --> 01:04:46.639
did these things happen? I'm looking for a year.

01:04:46.679 --> 01:04:48.679
I'll give you three events that occurred this

01:04:48.679 --> 01:04:52.250
year. Okay. The launch of Facebook. The Pixar

01:04:52.250 --> 01:04:56.710
movies Incredibles released. And NASA craft opportunity

01:04:56.710 --> 01:05:00.730
landed on Mars. I'll give you the point if you're

01:05:00.730 --> 01:05:04.530
pretty close. Okay. So I can repeat the things

01:05:04.530 --> 01:05:07.630
if you'd wish, but I'm looking for a year. Okay.

01:05:08.190 --> 01:05:13.650
2003. 2003 is your guess. Yep. I'll give you

01:05:13.650 --> 01:05:17.510
the point. The year's 2004. Oh, I almost said

01:05:17.510 --> 01:05:21.690
that too. Not bad. Damn it. Not bad. Yeah. Facebook,

01:05:21.690 --> 01:05:23.829
Incredibles, and Opportunity Landing on Mars

01:05:23.829 --> 01:05:26.309
all happened in the year 2004, but you do get

01:05:26.309 --> 01:05:27.869
the point. Okay, thank you. Because you were

01:05:27.869 --> 01:05:31.650
pretty damn close. What is the approximate population

01:05:31.650 --> 01:05:36.449
of the Chicago city limits? So not the collar

01:05:36.449 --> 01:05:39.809
suburbs, not Chicagoland, just city. City, Chicago.

01:05:40.829 --> 01:05:45.750
And these stats, I believe, are from the 2020

01:05:45.750 --> 01:05:48.750
census, but they're updated estimates from recent

01:05:48.750 --> 01:05:55.639
years. Okay. I'll say 3 .3 million. Ooh, do I

01:05:55.639 --> 01:05:59.780
give you the point or not? Oh, man. How close?

01:06:00.179 --> 01:06:05.300
The answer was 2 .73 million. Eh, I'll take an

01:06:05.300 --> 01:06:08.760
L on that one. Take an L on that one? Yeah. If

01:06:08.760 --> 01:06:10.820
I was maybe 100 ,000 off, I would have taken

01:06:10.820 --> 01:06:13.719
it. Yeah, I believe it used to be higher, but

01:06:13.719 --> 01:06:15.599
of course it's gone down because cost of living

01:06:15.599 --> 01:06:18.869
is just absurd. Yep, that's right. Now, here's

01:06:18.869 --> 01:06:21.969
the question you just thought it was. What is

01:06:21.969 --> 01:06:26.150
the approximate population of Chicagoland? Officially

01:06:26.150 --> 01:06:28.929
known as the Chicago metropolitan area. Yep.

01:06:28.989 --> 01:06:31.690
But it's Chicagoland. Let's be honest. So for

01:06:31.690 --> 01:06:34.530
all of you not familiar with what Chicagoland

01:06:34.530 --> 01:06:39.730
is, it is Cook County, which is Chicago. The

01:06:39.730 --> 01:06:43.809
entire area is made up of suburbs. So there's

01:06:43.809 --> 01:06:46.449
Lake County and Kane and Kendall and Will and

01:06:46.449 --> 01:06:48.869
even Northwest Indiana. So it's a much larger

01:06:48.869 --> 01:06:54.170
metro area. I'm going to just go with a straight

01:06:54.170 --> 01:06:55.869
number here. I'm just going to go with 8 million.

01:06:56.130 --> 01:06:59.289
Oh, man. I might have to drop this point, too.

01:06:59.610 --> 01:07:04.570
I was looking at 9 .6 mil for Chicagoland. Yeah.

01:07:05.530 --> 01:07:08.599
Shucks. That's okay. That's okay. We recover.

01:07:09.000 --> 01:07:11.460
It's a big number. It is a big number. In what

01:07:11.460 --> 01:07:14.860
year did these things happen? Bill Clinton re

01:07:14.860 --> 01:07:19.679
-elected, Nintendo 64 launched, and the death

01:07:19.679 --> 01:07:30.579
of Tupac. Huh. Uh... I'm... 1995? I'll give you

01:07:30.579 --> 01:07:34.360
the point. 1996. Cool. I wasn't sure because

01:07:34.360 --> 01:07:36.000
like with Bill Clinton's elected, that would

01:07:36.000 --> 01:07:39.519
be November. So it'd be 95 before January of

01:07:39.519 --> 01:07:43.500
96. I think you're a year off because the elections

01:07:43.500 --> 01:07:46.320
happen in the even years and then they're sworn

01:07:46.320 --> 01:07:48.840
in on the odd years. Got it. Okay. I'll flip

01:07:48.840 --> 01:07:51.260
that. I'll give you the point though. 95 is close

01:07:51.260 --> 01:07:54.920
to 96. It happened in 96. Got it. Here's the

01:07:54.920 --> 01:07:57.059
math question you were dreading. What is the

01:07:57.059 --> 01:08:04.449
square root of 169? You're a bad person. I'm

01:08:04.449 --> 01:08:07.769
a bad person. You're a bad person. Gosh darn

01:08:07.769 --> 01:08:15.869
it. 169. An odd number. Fuck. That's mean. Well,

01:08:15.949 --> 01:08:19.989
there is some hints you could extrapolate from

01:08:19.989 --> 01:08:23.850
what you just said. Okay, so... So if it's an

01:08:23.850 --> 01:08:27.329
odd number, that must mean its square root is

01:08:27.329 --> 01:08:33.409
also an odd number. Right. That I know. That

01:08:33.409 --> 01:08:40.989
I know. Okay. Let's... Jesus Christ. You got

01:08:40.989 --> 01:08:43.729
it. Oh, are you sure about that? Well... I don't...

01:08:43.729 --> 01:08:47.409
I know somewhere in your brain the logic is there

01:08:47.409 --> 01:08:53.329
for it. Yeah. Man, that is some downright bullshit.

01:08:53.869 --> 01:09:00.310
Okay. Well said. Thirteen? 13 is correct. You

01:09:00.310 --> 01:09:04.869
nailed it. You get nooks for that one. You get

01:09:04.869 --> 01:09:08.689
some nooks for that one. My brain hurts. You

01:09:08.689 --> 01:09:11.670
did it. You done did it. Yeah. Holy shit. What

01:09:11.670 --> 01:09:14.649
was the logic that you were... I saw the smoke

01:09:14.649 --> 01:09:16.770
coming out your ears. What was cooking in there?

01:09:17.069 --> 01:09:20.850
Okay. Well, basically, I started... Explain your

01:09:20.850 --> 01:09:23.710
answer. I started... That's the worst. Like,

01:09:23.750 --> 01:09:25.829
you get... Right? That's like modern math, right?

01:09:25.909 --> 01:09:28.149
It's like, you come up and it's like, hey, that's

01:09:28.149 --> 01:09:30.689
right. But explain your work. It's like, goddammit.

01:09:30.770 --> 01:09:33.189
Fuck you. That's how I just explained my work.

01:09:33.760 --> 01:09:35.640
Does that work for you? Fair enough. Teacher

01:09:35.640 --> 01:09:38.159
gives you the point. Okay, so I basically started

01:09:38.159 --> 01:09:41.420
at 10. Okay, square root of 10 is 100. I have

01:09:41.420 --> 01:09:45.060
to get to 169, so I know it's more than 10. So

01:09:45.060 --> 01:09:47.500
then I started going, okay, it's odds. It's not

01:09:47.500 --> 01:09:51.840
11, then 3. 3 and 3 is 9, 169. Okay, it's got

01:09:51.840 --> 01:09:53.899
to be 13. Got to be 13. Smart. So that's kind

01:09:53.899 --> 01:09:57.199
of how I did it. Very smart, yeah. In my brain,

01:09:57.279 --> 01:10:00.140
I would have just thought like, okay, well, 144

01:10:00.140 --> 01:10:03.760
is 12. The next one's probably 13. True. Yeah.

01:10:03.979 --> 01:10:06.359
But well done. Definitely got the point there.

01:10:06.500 --> 01:10:09.899
Next question. How many common blood types are

01:10:09.899 --> 01:10:18.180
there? Six? No. No. A pause and then a no. That's

01:10:18.180 --> 01:10:22.840
nice. That is incorrect. You've got A positive

01:10:22.840 --> 01:10:26.760
and negative, B positive and negative, AB plus

01:10:26.760 --> 01:10:29.819
and negative, and O positive and negative. So

01:10:29.819 --> 01:10:33.050
you've got Ocho. Oh. Ocho types. I wasn't that

01:10:33.050 --> 01:10:36.409
far off. Yeah. Which ones did you forget? I saw

01:10:36.409 --> 01:10:39.909
you counting on your fingers. I was. Well, I

01:10:39.909 --> 01:10:43.649
think the AB is what I... Oh, I see. Yeah, I

01:10:43.649 --> 01:10:45.689
should have figured that. Yeah, there's AB, AB,

01:10:45.869 --> 01:10:47.869
and then O. Yeah. And then there's two types

01:10:47.869 --> 01:10:52.949
of each. How many studio albums did Nirvana release?

01:10:55.109 --> 01:10:58.909
That's a good question. I am excluding EPs and

01:10:58.909 --> 01:11:02.300
live versions. That's a very interesting question

01:11:02.300 --> 01:11:09.159
because we know the lead singer got pew -pewed.

01:11:09.539 --> 01:11:13.319
Got murked. He got murked. Or as they say in

01:11:13.319 --> 01:11:22.260
GTA 5, wasted. I'm going to say three. Three

01:11:22.260 --> 01:11:25.800
is correct. Let's go. Three is correct. Let's

01:11:25.800 --> 01:11:27.699
go. Tell you what, I'll give you a bonus point.

01:11:27.800 --> 01:11:30.159
Oh, no. If you can name them all. Cannot. Okay.

01:11:30.319 --> 01:11:33.319
Cannot. Bleach in utero and never mind. Yep.

01:11:33.359 --> 01:11:36.319
I would have got two of those three. Next question.

01:11:36.800 --> 01:11:39.859
Another year I'm looking for. In what year did

01:11:39.859 --> 01:11:43.619
these things happen? Nintendo Game Boy released.

01:11:44.319 --> 01:11:48.920
Taylor Swift was born. Tiananmen Square protests

01:11:48.920 --> 01:11:59.130
slash massacre. Okay. 92? That's close. That's

01:11:59.130 --> 01:12:01.350
close. Not enough for the point? I think I'll

01:12:01.350 --> 01:12:03.329
give you the point. I think I'll give you the

01:12:03.329 --> 01:12:07.569
point. I was looking for 1989. Hmm. Okay. So

01:12:07.569 --> 01:12:10.130
pretty close. Yeah. Just a couple years off.

01:12:10.430 --> 01:12:13.010
I rushed that one. I rushed it. Should have thought

01:12:13.010 --> 01:12:15.890
a little more? I rushed it. Yeah. What was...

01:12:15.890 --> 01:12:19.430
Because I knew it was George... George Herbert

01:12:19.430 --> 01:12:23.050
Walker Bush. Yes. And it was him. I just didn't

01:12:23.050 --> 01:12:26.529
know when. I see. Went on that timeline of presidency.

01:12:26.609 --> 01:12:30.130
Yeah, I get that. What would you call a thousand

01:12:30.130 --> 01:12:35.920
millions? A lot. Somehow I knew you were going

01:12:35.920 --> 01:12:38.720
to say that. It was either going to be a lot

01:12:38.720 --> 01:12:42.479
or a shit ton. Yeah, I mean, am I wrong? No,

01:12:42.680 --> 01:12:47.100
I guess I'll give you the point. Okay, what was

01:12:47.100 --> 01:12:50.260
it again? I don't even remember. Thousand ones?

01:12:50.359 --> 01:12:52.479
What would you call... Well, a thousand ones

01:12:52.479 --> 01:12:56.159
is a thousand. Well done. Thank you. You are

01:12:56.159 --> 01:12:59.579
welcome. What would you call a thousand millions?

01:13:01.239 --> 01:13:05.010
Let's... Hmm, okay. Okay, I will figure this

01:13:05.010 --> 01:13:08.170
out. Yeah, you got it. I know you got it. I have

01:13:08.170 --> 01:13:16.689
faith in you. Is it 10 billion? No. No. Well,

01:13:16.710 --> 01:13:19.489
I added three zeros to the end, right? Well,

01:13:19.689 --> 01:13:21.210
yeah, you had three zeros to the end. Exactly.

01:13:21.510 --> 01:13:24.409
So it's a million. Uh -huh. 10 million. Yep.

01:13:24.810 --> 01:13:27.750
101 billion. Yes, 1 billion is correct. Okay.

01:13:27.829 --> 01:13:30.989
I went one too many. I would have also taken

01:13:30.989 --> 01:13:34.369
a lot as an answer. That's fair. So I did already

01:13:34.369 --> 01:13:36.069
give you the point. Thank you. I appreciate that.

01:13:36.069 --> 01:13:38.789
I give you the humor point. Yeah. What is the

01:13:38.789 --> 01:13:44.930
atomic number of helium? Oh, penis. I'm sure

01:13:44.930 --> 01:13:48.069
you're familiar with the periodic table. Yeah,

01:13:48.130 --> 01:13:50.590
I know. I know, but I'm not a woman, so I don't

01:13:50.590 --> 01:13:54.109
understand how that works every month. Is that

01:13:54.109 --> 01:13:56.090
what that table means? The period table. Right.

01:13:56.210 --> 01:13:57.470
Yeah. I mean, that's what we're talking about,

01:13:57.529 --> 01:14:02.069
right? Oh, good Lord. We'll be canceled soon

01:14:02.069 --> 01:14:04.989
enough. I know. I know that for sure. Shout out

01:14:04.989 --> 01:14:07.310
all my women out there. You guys are great. Better

01:14:07.310 --> 01:14:12.729
than us by far. Okay. So he said helium, right?

01:14:12.829 --> 01:14:16.189
I did say helium. I know it's early. I know it's

01:14:16.189 --> 01:14:19.829
in the top eight. I'm going to say number one.

01:14:20.560 --> 01:14:23.619
You're close. Number two? It is number two. Damn

01:14:23.619 --> 01:14:26.539
it. Yep, it is number two. I believe number two

01:14:26.539 --> 01:14:29.079
only to hydrogen. Hydrogen. See, I flipped those

01:14:29.079 --> 01:14:31.640
two. I knew it. Damn it. I believe hydrogen has

01:14:31.640 --> 01:14:35.899
the one proton and then helium's got two. Oxygen,

01:14:35.899 --> 01:14:39.159
fun fact, is Ocho. Nubero 8. It is, yeah. It

01:14:39.159 --> 01:14:43.319
is Ocho, yep. Including Pluto, how many planets

01:14:43.319 --> 01:14:47.000
are there in the solar system? Yeah. Yeah, man.

01:14:47.949 --> 01:14:50.390
NASA might have demoted Pluto, but I don't take

01:14:50.390 --> 01:14:53.609
that. We do not. No. We see you, Pluto. We stay

01:14:53.609 --> 01:14:57.250
in Pluto. We do. I'm team Pluto. I'm team Pluto,

01:14:57.390 --> 01:14:58.949
too. We're not talking about the stupid dog.

01:14:59.930 --> 01:15:06.109
Wharf. Wharf. Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Saturn,

01:15:06.369 --> 01:15:11.710
Jupiter, Neptune, Pluto. I think I said Venus.

01:15:12.090 --> 01:15:15.319
You did say Venus. Nine? Nine is correct. Let's

01:15:15.319 --> 01:15:18.979
go. Huge. Let's go. Huge. You didn't mention

01:15:18.979 --> 01:15:21.119
Uranus, but you did get the number correct. Oh,

01:15:21.119 --> 01:15:24.000
that was it. I knew I missed something when I

01:15:24.000 --> 01:15:25.840
was counting, but you nine was right. You did

01:15:25.840 --> 01:15:28.340
get the number correct, but you missed Uranus.

01:15:28.340 --> 01:15:31.140
How could you forget Uranus? I know. I never

01:15:31.140 --> 01:15:33.340
do. Because Uranus is so important. Thank you.

01:15:34.420 --> 01:15:41.060
As reported in 2023, roughly what percentage

01:15:41.060 --> 01:15:45.020
of American adults drink? Alcohol. What year?

01:15:45.220 --> 01:15:48.600
As reported in 2023. And we're looking for a

01:15:48.600 --> 01:15:50.539
percentage? For a percentage point, yep. Percentage

01:15:50.539 --> 01:15:53.640
of adults. Percentage of American adults that

01:15:53.640 --> 01:15:58.079
drink alcohol. Roughly. I do have a range. See,

01:15:58.180 --> 01:15:59.600
here's the thing. Because you get the reports

01:15:59.600 --> 01:16:01.819
today, it'll be like, oh, kids aren't drinking

01:16:01.819 --> 01:16:03.420
today. Well, clearly you've never been to Franklin

01:16:03.420 --> 01:16:06.859
House on a Friday night. Plenty of kids drinking.

01:16:07.319 --> 01:16:11.140
Ah, Jesus. A lot more smoking because of the

01:16:11.140 --> 01:16:13.920
laws. Not in our state, but the surrounding states.

01:16:14.020 --> 01:16:16.220
Well, because Indiana's stupid. Yeah. We've established

01:16:16.220 --> 01:16:18.880
that. This is true. Indiana people, cancel us.

01:16:19.859 --> 01:16:22.460
Not us, though. Not us, though. Just the state.

01:16:24.500 --> 01:16:27.100
Percentage, shit. Like, if it was Wisconsin,

01:16:27.239 --> 01:16:30.859
I'd be like, oh, 100%. Yeah, exactly. I'm going

01:16:30.859 --> 01:16:36.920
to say 31%. Whoa. Is that low? That's really

01:16:36.920 --> 01:16:39.619
low, yeah. Oh, so there's more alcoholics than

01:16:39.619 --> 01:16:41.880
I thought. Yes, there are. Oh, good, good. Yeah,

01:16:41.899 --> 01:16:43.100
good, good, good. I feel better about that. Yes,

01:16:43.100 --> 01:16:45.140
exactly. Living in this country, I figured more

01:16:45.140 --> 01:16:46.819
people would be drinking. I feel better about

01:16:46.819 --> 01:16:51.479
myself. Yeah, and as reported in 2023, roughly

01:16:51.479 --> 01:16:57.079
54 % to 66 % of people drink alcohol. Wow. Which,

01:16:57.199 --> 01:16:59.659
by the way, is down historically. So you were

01:16:59.659 --> 01:17:01.640
right with that call. It is down historically

01:17:01.640 --> 01:17:06.220
from 63 % to 81%. So it is down. More alcohol

01:17:06.220 --> 01:17:08.479
for us. Yeah, exactly. Thank God. It's fine.

01:17:08.600 --> 01:17:11.979
I mean, hey. Americans, keep that up. More for

01:17:11.979 --> 01:17:15.239
me. Keep it up. More for me. We're looking at

01:17:15.239 --> 01:17:19.359
about three -fifths to two -thirds. Got it. Wow.

01:17:19.720 --> 01:17:23.180
Yeah. Okay. Got me on that one. Got him. Got

01:17:23.180 --> 01:17:27.840
him. In what year did these things happen? Reagan

01:17:27.840 --> 01:17:31.399
sworn in as 40th president of the U .S. Okay.

01:17:31.579 --> 01:17:35.100
First London Marathon occurred. Oakland wins

01:17:35.100 --> 01:17:41.189
Super Bowl XV. Hmm. Interessante. Interessante,

01:17:41.210 --> 01:17:45.710
as they say down south. Right. 1980? I'll give

01:17:45.710 --> 01:17:49.350
you the point. 1981. 81. Yep. It's that whole

01:17:49.350 --> 01:17:51.289
even -odd thing again. God damn it, I should

01:17:51.289 --> 01:17:52.930
have learned my lesson from five questions ago.

01:17:52.949 --> 01:17:56.630
Exactly. Yeah, they're elected on the even and

01:17:56.630 --> 01:17:58.229
then sworn in on the odd. Sworn in on the odd,

01:17:58.229 --> 01:18:02.430
right. Got it. In the board game Scrabble, Q

01:18:02.430 --> 01:18:06.920
and Z share what point value? See, and that's

01:18:06.920 --> 01:18:09.319
rude, because here's the thing. Is that rude?

01:18:09.539 --> 01:18:12.060
That's not even a math question. It's a Scrabble

01:18:12.060 --> 01:18:16.520
question, because I think, because your mother

01:18:16.520 --> 01:18:21.100
is not a violent person, but I really think she

01:18:21.100 --> 01:18:24.960
enjoyed the regular beatdowns on my ass whenever

01:18:24.960 --> 01:18:29.659
we would play said game. Scrabble. Of Scrabble,

01:18:29.720 --> 01:18:32.840
which... You gotta take those wins. We take those

01:18:32.840 --> 01:18:36.180
dubs. Yeah, I mean... You know, am I the Cleveland

01:18:36.180 --> 01:18:39.760
Browns of Scrabble? Yes, I am. And I fully admit

01:18:39.760 --> 01:18:42.840
that, you know. Your mother throws some fuck

01:18:42.840 --> 01:18:44.939
-ass word out there and be like, oh, yay, look,

01:18:45.079 --> 01:18:47.539
48 points. And you'd be like, why do I play this

01:18:47.539 --> 01:18:49.380
shit? Mark me down for five points for the word

01:18:49.380 --> 01:18:53.020
the. Yeah, right. I'm like, okay, fine. Now we're

01:18:53.020 --> 01:18:54.579
going to play my game. Stand in the batter's

01:18:54.579 --> 01:18:57.289
box. Let me throw some baseballs at you. Um,

01:18:57.369 --> 01:19:01.569
but anyway, fuck, uh, 10 points. 10 points is

01:19:01.569 --> 01:19:04.609
correct. Oh, let's go. Yes. The other troubling

01:19:04.609 --> 01:19:07.270
ones, like the letter X are worth like eight

01:19:07.270 --> 01:19:09.890
points. Eight points. Yes. Okay. So big point

01:19:09.890 --> 01:19:14.250
there. How many feet are there in a mile? This

01:19:14.250 --> 01:19:17.789
is the third to last question. Uh, in a mile?

01:19:17.909 --> 01:19:23.840
Yes. 5 ,280. Correct. On the dot. Let's go. How

01:19:23.840 --> 01:19:27.279
many meters are there in a kilometer? You're

01:19:27.279 --> 01:19:31.119
an ass. I went these back to back because I knew

01:19:31.119 --> 01:19:34.159
it would be fucked up. If I were Canadian, eh?

01:19:34.779 --> 01:19:37.720
I'm sure I would know this answer very easily.

01:19:38.119 --> 01:19:40.979
We don't do meters here in the United States.

01:19:41.539 --> 01:19:44.100
Somebody would be like, oh yeah, so how many

01:19:44.100 --> 01:19:48.039
centimeters? I'd be like a 10 -year -old in grade

01:19:48.039 --> 01:19:50.479
school. They're asking me a centimeter question.

01:19:50.659 --> 01:19:53.960
I'm like, why? Why are we doing it? None of that

01:19:53.960 --> 01:19:59.840
matters worth anything. Oh, mother. How many

01:19:59.840 --> 01:20:02.079
meters in a cup? What did you say? How many meters?

01:20:02.300 --> 01:20:05.939
Well, you can't put meters in a cup. You haven't

01:20:05.939 --> 01:20:08.000
seen me try. This is true. Honestly, that was

01:20:08.000 --> 01:20:10.300
some naysaying from my part. I take it back.

01:20:11.140 --> 01:20:14.359
How many meters are there in a kilometer? Got

01:20:14.359 --> 01:20:18.579
it. Okay. No idea. 1 ,024. I'm not even going

01:20:18.579 --> 01:20:22.390
to give you the point. Thank you. How many meters

01:20:22.390 --> 01:20:25.229
are there in a kilometer? Kilo means 1 ,000.

01:20:25.390 --> 01:20:28.270
Meter means meter. The answer I was looking for

01:20:28.270 --> 01:20:33.149
was 1 ,000. Dude, I was close. Fine, fine. I

01:20:33.149 --> 01:20:35.149
don't want the point. I'm just saying the way

01:20:35.149 --> 01:20:37.710
you looked at me was like, this guy is so far

01:20:37.710 --> 01:20:40.930
off. My God, send him back to remedial math.

01:20:42.080 --> 01:20:45.500
Oh, you penis. It was more of an etymology, like

01:20:45.500 --> 01:20:49.380
a word question. My God. Kilometer, thousand

01:20:49.380 --> 01:20:53.380
meter. I know, I should have. You know? I'm sorry.

01:20:53.600 --> 01:20:57.359
You were thinking in computer terms, like how

01:20:57.359 --> 01:20:59.579
many bytes in a megabyte. It's like, well, technically

01:20:59.579 --> 01:21:06.000
it's 1 ,028. We can just stop talking about that

01:21:06.000 --> 01:21:10.600
question, okay? I was close anyway. Yes, you

01:21:10.600 --> 01:21:13.979
were. Jesus Christ. Yes, you were. Final question

01:21:13.979 --> 01:21:19.079
of quiz time today. Yes. In what year did these

01:21:19.079 --> 01:21:22.939
things happen? The infamous Columbine shooting.

01:21:23.239 --> 01:21:27.079
Ooh. Discovery completed its first dock with

01:21:27.079 --> 01:21:30.420
the International Space Station. Britney Spears'

01:21:30.560 --> 01:21:40.770
debut album drops. Interesting. Okay. Now, I

01:21:40.770 --> 01:21:44.670
think... Man. See, I'm trying to think if Herbert

01:21:44.670 --> 01:21:48.909
Walker Bush or Clinton were in office when Columbine

01:21:48.909 --> 01:21:53.090
hit. I think it was Clinton because then they

01:21:53.090 --> 01:21:55.489
did the automatic weapon ban for a while. Yeah,

01:21:55.489 --> 01:21:57.149
yeah, yeah. Which made a lot of sense and then

01:21:57.149 --> 01:21:58.909
Republicans got rid of it because they like dead

01:21:58.909 --> 01:22:06.470
kids. Clearly. I'm going to say 94. Ooh. Am I

01:22:06.470 --> 01:22:09.609
off? Man, slightly. I'll give you one more hint.

01:22:10.170 --> 01:22:13.029
This is also the birth year of one of your children.

01:22:13.449 --> 01:22:15.689
You just happened to pick the wrong birth year.

01:22:16.029 --> 01:22:20.470
Why you gotta do that? Now he's being a real

01:22:20.470 --> 01:22:22.590
dick. Now I'm being an asshole. Because that's

01:22:22.590 --> 01:22:25.449
a question I get all the time. Be like, how many

01:22:25.449 --> 01:22:26.949
kids do you have? I'm like, I have four kids.

01:22:27.170 --> 01:22:29.649
They're like, oh, how old are they? I can't do

01:22:29.649 --> 01:22:33.500
that. They're not young. What do you want from

01:22:33.500 --> 01:22:35.079
me? They're like boomers by now. Like, fuck,

01:22:35.220 --> 01:22:38.619
I don't know how old I am. Since I gave you that

01:22:38.619 --> 01:22:41.119
hint, I would like you to be exact now. Oh, you.

01:22:41.960 --> 01:22:48.399
See here. Okay. Look, Al was 94. Yes, this is

01:22:48.399 --> 01:22:50.979
correct. And I said 94 and you said no. This

01:22:50.979 --> 01:22:54.300
is correct. Now that puts us into a range of

01:22:54.300 --> 01:22:58.840
dates, which I thought was a lot later. Then

01:22:58.840 --> 01:23:01.460
Columbine actually happened. So now I'm all fucked

01:23:01.460 --> 01:23:03.880
in the head on this one. You do have the president

01:23:03.880 --> 01:23:07.199
correct, though. Clinton was in office. So, okay,

01:23:07.260 --> 01:23:10.279
then that being the case, it's got to be 98.

01:23:11.060 --> 01:23:13.279
You know, I'll give you the damn point. 1999.

01:23:14.600 --> 01:23:18.159
The birth year of your co -host. Damn it. I'll

01:23:18.159 --> 01:23:20.520
give you the point. Wrong child. Wrong child

01:23:20.520 --> 01:23:22.880
again. Damn it. That was kind of mean on my part.

01:23:23.279 --> 01:23:27.560
So rude. Well, lovely listeners, let us know

01:23:27.560 --> 01:23:29.640
in the comments how many points you got. Let's

01:23:29.640 --> 01:23:32.199
see how many points Mark Moe got. Great. You

01:23:32.199 --> 01:23:38.239
got 13 of 19 potential points. I'm stupid. The

01:23:38.239 --> 01:23:40.380
questions you missed were both of the Chicago

01:23:40.380 --> 01:23:43.239
and Chicagoland questions. The common blood types,

01:23:43.420 --> 01:23:46.800
the atomic number of helium, percentage of Americans

01:23:46.800 --> 01:23:50.539
that drink, and meters in a kilometer. I thought

01:23:50.539 --> 01:23:53.159
you were giving me that one. Okay, I'll give

01:23:53.159 --> 01:23:55.359
you that one. I thought you rejected having the

01:23:55.359 --> 01:23:59.460
point. That's fine. Okay, so you get 14 of 19,

01:23:59.840 --> 01:24:03.720
which someone in the comments do the math. I

01:24:03.720 --> 01:24:06.699
think it's still a passing grade. Not by much.

01:24:07.960 --> 01:24:11.399
About 75 out of 100 if we do the math, give or

01:24:11.399 --> 01:24:14.020
take. That's bad. So you get a C, maybe a low

01:24:14.020 --> 01:24:16.760
C. But it's numbers, so I don't feel terrible

01:24:16.760 --> 01:24:19.619
about it. Yes. It was kind of mean that I did

01:24:19.619 --> 01:24:23.380
numbers on you. Yeah. Like math and science concepts,

01:24:23.680 --> 01:24:28.739
very cool stuff. In practice, no. Nah. I gave

01:24:28.739 --> 01:24:31.699
that up a long time ago. Well, this has been

01:24:31.699 --> 01:24:33.500
Quiz Time. Let us know in the comments how you

01:24:33.500 --> 01:24:36.180
did on the quiz. Did you enjoy the quiz? And,

01:24:36.199 --> 01:24:37.680
of course, let us know your thoughts on the list.

01:24:37.960 --> 01:24:40.340
All right. We are going to take a little bit

01:24:40.340 --> 01:24:41.819
of a break. I'm going to go stand in front of

01:24:41.819 --> 01:24:44.880
a bus, and when we come back, beer review, and

01:24:44.880 --> 01:24:48.199
you got it. We're back, baby. World of Weird

01:24:48.199 --> 01:24:56.279
News! All right, everybody, we are back for the

01:24:56.279 --> 01:24:59.239
homestretch of the Mark Mo Show. Your host, Mark

01:24:59.239 --> 01:25:03.399
Maloney, Aiden Maloney, co -host, producer, etc.,

01:25:03.399 --> 01:25:07.800
etc., etc. We wrap up with the beer review and

01:25:07.800 --> 01:25:12.140
the world of weird news. And we've got a fancy

01:25:12.140 --> 01:25:15.619
little beer here. And I'm going to let Aiden

01:25:15.619 --> 01:25:19.939
tell you all about it. This is called Abby. From

01:25:19.939 --> 01:25:23.520
the New Belgium Brewing Company out of Fort Collins,

01:25:23.619 --> 01:25:26.600
Colorado. It is a Belgian double. Now if you

01:25:26.600 --> 01:25:28.539
know something about us, we are fans of Belgian

01:25:28.539 --> 01:25:33.699
beers. 7 % ABV. So a little spicier than your

01:25:33.699 --> 01:25:37.539
typical 5 %ers there. I thought they could have

01:25:37.539 --> 01:25:45.439
stretched it into a triple. Sports humor. That's

01:25:45.439 --> 01:25:47.680
what happens when I run the bases. The guy's

01:25:47.680 --> 01:25:50.399
too tall and lanky. Keep him on second. Exactly.

01:25:50.720 --> 01:25:52.600
Aidan's the only guy that can turn a double into

01:25:52.600 --> 01:26:00.239
a single. Check. That's me. As described by New

01:26:00.239 --> 01:26:04.119
Belgium, Abbey Ale is brewed in the style of

01:26:04.119 --> 01:26:06.800
Belgian Trappist double, seven malts including

01:26:06.800 --> 01:26:10.300
caramel, Munich, and chocolate. It is a definitive

01:26:10.300 --> 01:26:14.239
Belgian yeast, waft off sweet and spicy aromas.

01:26:15.159 --> 01:26:17.729
We'll be the judge of that. And we're using the

01:26:17.729 --> 01:26:20.649
untapped apps on our phones to rank this beer

01:26:20.649 --> 01:26:24.850
on a scale from 0 to 5. We'll give you some flavor

01:26:24.850 --> 01:26:28.369
notes, let you know is it worth your time. Here

01:26:28.369 --> 01:26:30.750
we go. All right, let's do this thing. And of

01:26:30.750 --> 01:26:32.029
course, lovely listener, let us know what you're

01:26:32.029 --> 01:26:35.510
enjoying at home. Sláinte. Sláinte. Ooh, smells

01:26:35.510 --> 01:26:38.970
like bananas. My God, that's tasty. Yeah, I like

01:26:38.970 --> 01:26:42.350
that. I like that a lot. Fairly light compared

01:26:42.350 --> 01:26:45.420
to some of the Belgians I've had before. Yep.

01:26:45.500 --> 01:26:50.539
You know, it's not that massive flavorful mouthfeel

01:26:50.539 --> 01:26:54.239
you might get from a Chimay, like Trappist Belgian

01:26:54.239 --> 01:26:57.520
style ale. Yeah. But yeah, just like slightly

01:26:57.520 --> 01:27:00.039
banana, touch of caramel maybe? Yeah, maybe.

01:27:00.140 --> 01:27:02.159
Caramel sweetness in there, but butterscotch,

01:27:02.159 --> 01:27:05.119
I'm not sure. God, that's nice though. Mm -hmm.

01:27:05.300 --> 01:27:07.960
For being 7%, I would have thought this would

01:27:07.960 --> 01:27:12.260
have been a 5. Like it is fairly light bodied.

01:27:12.399 --> 01:27:16.100
Mm. It was good. Definitely banana, though. Yeah.

01:27:16.560 --> 01:27:19.479
Almost a touch of hops I'm getting. A little

01:27:19.479 --> 01:27:21.800
bit. Yeah. Yeah, a little bit. There's something

01:27:21.800 --> 01:27:27.359
in there. Hmm. Maybe some allspice? What is that?

01:27:27.520 --> 01:27:30.100
Nutmeg? There's something in there. Some kind

01:27:30.100 --> 01:27:33.680
of wintry spice. I agree. I'm picking up on.

01:27:33.779 --> 01:27:37.279
I can't pinpoint it, though. Can't either. Clove's

01:27:37.279 --> 01:27:40.079
nutmeg kind of vibe. I was thinking more of like

01:27:40.079 --> 01:27:43.000
a gyro. That's a total joke, by the way. It does

01:27:43.000 --> 01:27:46.039
not taste like a gyro. I'm hungry and I want

01:27:46.039 --> 01:27:50.899
a gyro. That's full disclosure. Yeah. No, that

01:27:50.899 --> 01:27:53.880
is very pleasant. That is super pleasant. Yeah,

01:27:54.000 --> 01:27:57.619
my flavor profile is light -bodied, nutmeg, caramel,

01:27:57.760 --> 01:28:02.340
banana, and clove. Yeah, I get all that. I'm

01:28:02.340 --> 01:28:04.340
going pretty high on this one. I think it would

01:28:04.340 --> 01:28:07.140
have been higher if it was kind of, as you were

01:28:07.140 --> 01:28:08.899
saying, like a Belgian triple, like something

01:28:08.899 --> 01:28:13.260
a little more... Multi and full -bodied. It's

01:28:13.260 --> 01:28:16.479
somewhat light for a Belgian -style double. Yeah.

01:28:16.640 --> 01:28:20.880
But I'm still going up to 3 .75 out of 5. I quite

01:28:20.880 --> 01:28:23.420
like this. I like where your head's at. 3 .75.

01:28:23.640 --> 01:28:26.819
3 .75. My man. Yeah, we're usually close to one

01:28:26.819 --> 01:28:29.220
another, but rarely do we do an exact match.

01:28:29.720 --> 01:28:33.159
So, yeah, I think we're kind of right on. We

01:28:33.159 --> 01:28:36.500
got him today. Yeah, we definitely got that one

01:28:36.500 --> 01:28:41.400
for sure. On this beautiful untapped app, Well,

01:28:41.400 --> 01:28:43.380
we're not sponsored by it, but it is free and

01:28:43.380 --> 01:28:45.460
we use it to rank beers. So if you're into that,

01:28:45.520 --> 01:28:49.180
you should check it out. We get badges for sampling

01:28:49.180 --> 01:28:53.220
X amount of a certain style or supporting local

01:28:53.220 --> 01:28:55.140
breweries, things like that. Did you get any

01:28:55.140 --> 01:28:59.979
badges today? I did. Now, mind you, I joined

01:28:59.979 --> 01:29:03.239
onto this app long after Aiden did. This is true.

01:29:03.500 --> 01:29:06.359
And so this is for point of reference. When I

01:29:06.359 --> 01:29:08.420
tell you like certain levels and he tells you

01:29:08.420 --> 01:29:10.659
certain levels, you'd be like, wow, this guy's

01:29:10.659 --> 01:29:14.260
a noob to drinking. Far from it. Yes. Far from

01:29:14.260 --> 01:29:17.979
it. Okay. I got cheers to independent U .S. craft

01:29:17.979 --> 01:29:21.500
breweries level 14. Cheers, beer patriot. You're

01:29:21.500 --> 01:29:23.920
supporting small and independent American craft

01:29:23.920 --> 01:29:27.500
brewers. God bless. I also unlocked the ales

01:29:27.500 --> 01:29:31.100
for ALS. That's kind of fun. Not if you have

01:29:31.100 --> 01:29:34.859
ALS, of course. Oh, ALS. That's always fun. That's

01:29:34.859 --> 01:29:38.180
always fun. Cheapers. That's a fun one. Oh, God.

01:29:38.920 --> 01:29:44.010
Yeah. That's just. That's the thing. That check

01:29:44.010 --> 01:29:47.130
-in just meant something. This brewery is a proud

01:29:47.130 --> 01:29:49.909
partner of Ales for ALS, which helps raise funds

01:29:49.909 --> 01:29:52.149
for critical research towards finding a cure

01:29:52.149 --> 01:29:54.590
for ALS. I know they've been doing a lot of the

01:29:54.590 --> 01:29:57.489
ice bucket challenges lately. Every unique check

01:29:57.489 --> 01:30:00.909
-in of drinks from a participating brewery levels

01:30:00.909 --> 01:30:04.109
up your badge. So keep exploring. Find a full

01:30:04.109 --> 01:30:06.869
list of participating brewers near you. Right

01:30:06.869 --> 01:30:10.409
on. Finally, I unlocked the Wheel of Styles,

01:30:10.710 --> 01:30:13.970
level 12. Round and round the wheel goes. Which

01:30:13.970 --> 01:30:15.909
style you'll be drinking, nobody knows. Your

01:30:15.909 --> 01:30:18.449
desire to explore different styles is inspiring.

01:30:18.470 --> 01:30:20.909
Keep it up. That's a check -in to at least 60

01:30:20.909 --> 01:30:23.350
different styles. Try five more for level 13.

01:30:23.750 --> 01:30:27.810
That's huge. Yeah. That's huge. I got Untapped

01:30:27.810 --> 01:30:31.239
at Home, level 71. Thanks for staying at home

01:30:31.239 --> 01:30:33.260
and checking in with Untapped. Hey, you're very

01:30:33.260 --> 01:30:37.899
welcome. I also got ales for ALS level 6, and

01:30:37.899 --> 01:30:41.100
I got Middle of the Road level 62. Looking for

01:30:41.100 --> 01:30:43.039
more cake than a session beer, but want to be

01:30:43.039 --> 01:30:45.340
able to stay for a few rounds. You want to keep

01:30:45.340 --> 01:30:48.220
it in the middle. It's 310 beers with an ABV

01:30:48.220 --> 01:30:50.840
greater than 5 and less than 10. That's kind

01:30:50.840 --> 01:30:53.180
of a sweet spot. Yeah, it is the sweet spot.

01:30:53.439 --> 01:30:55.460
Yeah. I mean, if you go above 10, you're thinking

01:30:55.460 --> 01:30:58.979
of, what, like barley wines? some right some

01:30:58.979 --> 01:31:02.119
belgian triples maybe ipas can kind of breach

01:31:02.119 --> 01:31:06.279
10 as well but that's not many not many that's

01:31:06.279 --> 01:31:07.859
one of those things you drink one or two of those

01:31:07.859 --> 01:31:11.119
and you're like i think i'm done right yeah it

01:31:11.119 --> 01:31:13.699
doesn't take too many of those for sure yeah

01:31:13.699 --> 01:31:17.229
overall Overall, very good, though. And with

01:31:17.229 --> 01:31:19.710
it being in New Belgium, chances are, you know,

01:31:19.750 --> 01:31:21.789
all of you in the Chicago area and northwest

01:31:21.789 --> 01:31:24.789
Indiana, you can find it. But across the country,

01:31:24.890 --> 01:31:26.289
you should be able to find New Belgium. Yes.

01:31:26.529 --> 01:31:28.449
Yeah, I know they're out of Colorado, but if

01:31:28.449 --> 01:31:30.069
we can get them here in the Midwest, you could

01:31:30.069 --> 01:31:32.550
probably get them west coast. Maybe Canada? I

01:31:32.550 --> 01:31:34.729
don't know. Well, even with how things are going

01:31:34.729 --> 01:31:36.210
these days. With how things are going, maybe

01:31:36.210 --> 01:31:38.409
not. I know a lot of liquor companies are mad.

01:31:38.869 --> 01:31:41.050
Oh, the Canadians don't want to buy our bourbon.

01:31:41.130 --> 01:31:47.079
Well, well. Yeah. Gee, I wonder why. Indeed.

01:31:48.319 --> 01:31:51.239
Quite. All right, let's finish this up strong.

01:31:51.279 --> 01:31:55.180
We are back to the world of weird news here on

01:31:55.180 --> 01:31:59.500
the Mark Moe Show. I will start with mine. A

01:31:59.500 --> 01:32:02.399
Dalton, New Hampshire man is in custody after

01:32:02.399 --> 01:32:06.699
stealing a rescue truck on August 25th and using

01:32:06.699 --> 01:32:10.899
it to ram into a fire engine while firefighters

01:32:10.899 --> 01:32:15.979
battled his own house fire. Oh, my God. NBC 10

01:32:15.979 --> 01:32:20.020
in Boston reported that Nestor Roman II, 30 years

01:32:20.020 --> 01:32:23.920
old, not only hit the fire engine, which sustained

01:32:23.920 --> 01:32:28.260
significant damage, but also ran over water supply

01:32:28.260 --> 01:32:31.260
lines. Oh my God. Crashed into a personal vehicle,

01:32:31.619 --> 01:32:34.699
knocked over a nearby fence and narrowly missed

01:32:34.699 --> 01:32:37.699
three firefighters before ending his wrecking

01:32:37.699 --> 01:32:41.979
spree by crashing into a nearby property and

01:32:41.979 --> 01:32:45.140
attempting to steal items off the front porch.

01:32:47.520 --> 01:32:51.319
So he goes, his house gets lit on fire and he

01:32:51.319 --> 01:32:53.699
just has a manic episode and he's like, I'm going

01:32:53.699 --> 01:32:56.220
to crash into shit. Well, this is a perfect opportunity

01:32:56.220 --> 01:33:00.829
for me. No one was injured and firefighters were

01:33:00.829 --> 01:33:03.670
able to continue using those hoses to work on

01:33:03.670 --> 01:33:06.229
the fire. The house, however, ended up being

01:33:06.229 --> 01:33:09.210
a total loss. Damn. And Roman is charged with

01:33:09.210 --> 01:33:13.590
multiple counts of reckless conduct, theft, burglary,

01:33:13.590 --> 01:33:16.810
and resisting arrest. And hey, Roman, if you

01:33:16.810 --> 01:33:18.369
were in Porter County, they probably would have

01:33:18.369 --> 01:33:20.770
knocked down most of those charges and just slapped

01:33:20.770 --> 01:33:26.079
you with a fine. Right. That's crazy. That's

01:33:26.079 --> 01:33:30.720
crazy. Oh, my God. Oh, man. I love their fighting

01:33:30.720 --> 01:33:34.479
his house fire, and he's like, not only am I

01:33:34.479 --> 01:33:36.640
going to jack your rescue vehicle, I'm going

01:33:36.640 --> 01:33:39.619
to crash into your shit, too. That's right. I

01:33:39.619 --> 01:33:41.699
mean, he went all in, and then just hit the house.

01:33:41.720 --> 01:33:43.739
It was probably like, oh, are those some Amazon

01:33:43.739 --> 01:33:46.060
packages? I'll be jacking that. Might as well

01:33:46.060 --> 01:33:49.729
jack that. Must be ambidextrous the way he can

01:33:49.729 --> 01:33:53.010
do both. Indeed. Indeed. Quite the multitasker.

01:33:53.069 --> 01:33:57.770
Yes, of course. I've got a story here from UPI.

01:33:58.449 --> 01:34:01.750
Snake found browsing bread aisle at grocery store.

01:34:02.050 --> 01:34:05.090
Ooh. That's the headline. This is from September

01:34:05.090 --> 01:34:31.170
3rd. Pretty recent story. Nope. Nope. Nope. Quote,

01:34:31.170 --> 01:34:34.550
we have named her Crumbs since she was found

01:34:34.550 --> 01:34:38.550
near bread, Pet Encounter said on social media.

01:34:38.930 --> 01:34:42.489
Animal handler Ben Nicholson, said Pet Encounter,

01:34:42.630 --> 01:34:46.729
has seen a sharp uptick in snake rescues, with

01:34:46.729 --> 01:34:48.789
21 of the animals coming into the group's care

01:34:48.789 --> 01:34:52.229
this year alone, compared to 14 for the entirety

01:34:52.229 --> 01:34:56.260
of last year, 2025. Nicholson said the cost of

01:34:56.260 --> 01:34:59.000
living increases has likely, and unfortunately,

01:34:59.399 --> 01:35:02.899
contributed to many pet owners no longer being

01:35:02.899 --> 01:35:06.159
able to afford to keep their own animals. Oh.

01:35:06.699 --> 01:35:27.170
Quote, was started as an animal education organization,

01:35:27.329 --> 01:35:29.130
but officials are looking into the possibility

01:35:29.130 --> 01:35:31.850
of getting charity status as a rescue group.

01:35:32.250 --> 01:35:42.880
Quote, Yeah, we hear about that a lot. Quote,

01:35:42.880 --> 01:35:45.180
with Harry Potter season about to launch again,

01:35:45.279 --> 01:35:48.659
we're expecting an influx of owls. So we're preparing

01:35:48.659 --> 01:35:52.340
aviaries. We're also preparing aviaries for that,

01:35:52.520 --> 01:35:55.619
Nicholson says. Oh, my God. What is with this

01:35:55.619 --> 01:36:01.939
place? Holy hell. Oh, man. So, fellas. Owls and

01:36:01.939 --> 01:36:05.060
snakes and bears. Oh, my. Big cats out there.

01:36:06.000 --> 01:36:09.810
Just do your research before you buy a pet. I

01:36:09.810 --> 01:36:12.189
mean, if you don't want the responsibility or

01:36:12.189 --> 01:36:15.010
can't afford the equipment, just wait. Just don't.

01:36:15.029 --> 01:36:17.750
Just save up for it. Yeah. You know? Otherwise,

01:36:17.750 --> 01:36:19.729
your snake's going to be caught browsing the

01:36:19.729 --> 01:36:22.189
bread aisle looking for a little snack. I mean,

01:36:22.189 --> 01:36:25.449
if I'm a slipper snake, I mean, that's probably

01:36:25.449 --> 01:36:26.810
what I'm doing, too. I'd be going for Italian

01:36:26.810 --> 01:36:30.869
bread also. Exactly. Yeah, why not? Oh, my God.

01:36:30.869 --> 01:36:32.390
What else am I going to do? Sliver? Oh, my God.

01:36:32.390 --> 01:36:36.909
Is that a baguette? Yes. Count me in. Yeah. I

01:36:36.909 --> 01:36:38.630
don't know why I made my snake so metro, but

01:36:38.630 --> 01:36:42.319
he is. A slithery snake. A slithery snake. Dude,

01:36:42.319 --> 01:36:44.300
I'd be talking like that, too, if I was a snake.

01:36:44.340 --> 01:36:46.420
If I was a snake, why not? Fucking right. I would

01:36:46.420 --> 01:36:50.619
definitely be a slithery snake. Oh, God. God,

01:36:50.739 --> 01:36:53.399
what a show. We were in a mood today. Holy hell.

01:36:53.739 --> 01:36:56.220
And then just numbers just killed me. ABC, always

01:36:56.220 --> 01:36:59.000
be in a mood. Always be in a mood. ABC, always

01:36:59.000 --> 01:37:03.880
be avoiding numbers. You did decent. Don't get

01:37:03.880 --> 01:37:07.020
yourself down. It's all right. It's fine. I don't

01:37:07.020 --> 01:37:08.859
feel stupid. Watch every listener comment like,

01:37:08.979 --> 01:37:11.979
oh, I got 18 out of the 19. Yeah. I got 18 out

01:37:11.979 --> 01:37:14.859
of 19. That guy's really special. Well, I am,

01:37:14.859 --> 01:37:18.079
damn it. Unsubscribe. Mark Moe too stupid. Exactly.

01:37:18.159 --> 01:37:21.239
No, please. Exactly. Come back. Now the French

01:37:21.239 --> 01:37:23.779
are like, see, we were right. Stupid American.

01:37:24.479 --> 01:37:27.180
Shut up. Go eat your fucking snails. Yeah, just

01:37:27.180 --> 01:37:32.340
eat your baguettes or whatever. Anyway, thank

01:37:32.340 --> 01:37:34.420

last. You can see us live in the skin and blood.

01:38:17.210 --> 01:38:19.390

01:38:19.390 --> 01:38:23.170
the fuck does that mean? Just like live. In the

01:38:23.170 --> 01:38:27.310
skin and blood? Sounds like a GWAR show. Sounds

01:38:27.310 --> 01:38:30.909
like an indie band. Hello. Skin and blood. Hello,

01:38:30.970 --> 01:38:33.090
we're skin and blood. We've got some really great

01:38:33.090 --> 01:38:35.090
music. Probably more of a metal band. One, two,

01:38:35.189 --> 01:38:41.369
three, four. You're welcome. Anyway, we will

01:38:41.369 --> 01:38:44.810
be live. Death metal band. Exactly. Hey, mates,

01:38:44.930 --> 01:38:47.229
we're skin and blood. We're skin and blood. Listen

01:38:47.229 --> 01:38:54.159
to our songs. The demons command you. Okay, not

01:38:54.159 --> 01:38:57.239
really. Average British person. Command me. What

01:38:57.239 --> 01:39:00.380
a ball. It's Tuesday, ain't it? It's Tuesday,

01:39:00.380 --> 01:39:04.520
ain't it? Anyway, this is off the fucking rails.

01:39:04.680 --> 01:39:07.260
Okay, we'll be live next week, next Saturday.

01:39:07.500 --> 01:39:11.399
In the skin and blood. In the skin. Fucking goober.

01:39:11.539 --> 01:39:15.800
Why did you say that? I'm already pissed at you

01:39:15.800 --> 01:39:18.399
because of the numbers. Just shut up. Okay. We'll

01:39:18.399 --> 01:39:22.239
be live in Valpo. We will be on the parade route

01:39:22.239 --> 01:39:25.539
at Morgan and Lincoln Way. We will be there in

01:39:25.539 --> 01:39:29.199
the flesh. In the flesh and... The skin and blood.

01:39:29.380 --> 01:39:33.779
Skin and blood. Jesus Christ. One, two, three,

01:39:33.859 --> 01:39:37.359
four. See what happens when I take a night off

01:39:37.359 --> 01:39:42.430
of drinking? Holy hell. Poor, poor... That was

01:39:42.430 --> 01:39:44.829
really, I let myself down. I let all of you down.

01:39:44.890 --> 01:39:48.149
I do apologize. You can catch us right at that

01:39:48.149 --> 01:39:50.869
intersection. We're kind of in front of this

01:39:50.869 --> 01:39:53.930
place called Pat's Ice Cream Parlor, B -Dubs,

01:39:54.069 --> 01:39:56.109
all that kind of good stuff. So we're going to

01:39:56.109 --> 01:39:58.430

01:39:58.430 --> 01:40:01.029

In our wheelhouse. It's fisting. For sure. Jesus
