I'm Tina and this is Pardon My Stash, the Comedy of Errors edition, yarns and yikes included.
Welcome to Pardon My Stash, a podcast about knitting within the fiber arts and how awesome
it is. I am your solo host for today's very special episode. That's because today we're diving into
the lighter side of our podcast with a bloopers episode where I'll be sharing a collection of
hilarious outtakes and mishaps. These weirdly wonderful laugh out loud moments were caught on
our audio track throughout the year. The ones that usually get edited out by me but are just
too good not to share. So sit back, grab your whip of the day and get ready to chuckle along
with me as we explore this year's clips. All right, so this week's topic, we're going to talk about
how do you know when you're ready to take that next step in your fiber crafts? You didn't do the
music. I did the music. Did you? She did. When? Before. Right when I got up. You missed it. And then we paused after.
She did. I did it at the end of it. She got up. Why would I? Why? I don't know why I missed it.
I wasn't paying attention. I want to appreciate it. Thank you. You feel better? Yeah. Okay. Sorry, Jess. All right.
And we're going to crank two episodes out tonight. Yes, we are. Go ahead. I have concerns.
Go. I'm Drea. I'm Meg. I'm Jess. Okay, we have to go stop. Wow. That was a correct answer. And I'm Jess.
And this is Pardon My Stash. Yeah.
Yeah. I was trying to channel a show from Family Guy. Bring it on. Bring it on. I am the bat.
Okay. Okay. It's going to be one of those nights. No, it can't be because it's already 723.
I still got to be up at 530, even though tomorrow is a day. Okay. Enough.
Enough.
I'm going to breathe.
Sorry, I could have come on time so we could get this out faster.
I'm Drea. I'm Meg. I'm Tina. And I'm Jess. And this is Pardon My Stash.
We're doing great guys. All right. One more time. Once more. Once more. I haven't hosted a really
long time. Okay. All right. All right. Okay. Sorry. Okay. Let's do it. It was just awkward.
Everybody just turn around and face different corners of the room so we don't look at each other.
What the did you just do? Oh my God. You didn't have to listen to me. Jesus Christ, Tina.
No, give it a second. It's doing the right thing again. I did my own segment music.
It's flawless. All right.
Still feel like I did it better.
A plus. Mr. Sheep is indeed back and thank goodness because we need him.
Once we actually get past the introductions, we finally move on to talking about our projects,
but apparently we cannot keep ourselves together there either.
There before we get into today's topics, let's talk about what we're working on this week.
Okay, guys, can you keep your mobility aids under control? You're going to like fall over
and strangle yourself like you're getting real close. I'm like watching the yarn.
Listen, disabled bisexual down. Oh my God. Okay. No, you're good. I got that last part.
Okay. Tina. You know what? Drea.
What are you looking for? Do you want one?
I don't have one. That's okay. It's okay. It's okay. It's a super bulky. I know where I am.
Currently kind of free balling here. If we're bringing something back. Got it. Free balling.
Huh? It makes me laugh every time. No, we can get that. It just made me laugh.
I really did have to clear my throat. I was thinking of the bilge pumps.
Oh my God. They're trying to start a song and they're like, all right, let's get ready.
Obnoxious noise. One of the guys does like this real like, and finally was like, okay, Satan.
We have finally made it to the special segment or main topic section of the podcast. Sometimes we
can't help it, but when you put four neurodivergent people in a room, things happen.
So this week we are going to talk about indecisive yarns. You know, when you like,
you have this yarn and you really love it, you know, you just, you just can't wait to use it.
You know, you got, you got, you got to like really appreciate it in your stash. Why are you laughing
at me? I'm so sorry. It was cute. Sorry. I don't know why it was cracking me up. It was just like
the way you're like, you know, you know, have you felt this way? Like it felt like an infomercial.
Please keep going. Go. And you know, when you've had it in your stash and you know, you just,
but you don't know, you don't know what it's going to be. You know that you don't.
I need to start that thing over. You know that feel. I'm just like running with it. It's not,
it's not, you know, you don't know, you know, but you know, you don't. You want to cue up the music
for you? Okay. You're not like my mom. I love you mom, but my mother will, will tell you how to do
it, watch you do it and then go, well, it's just faster if I do it, take it out of your hands and
do it for you and then give it back to you and be like, I don't understand why you haven't learned
how to do this yet, but she admits that she's like that. So that's how I teach. I want to go back to
my thing. Learn, learn. One at this table who's just like, no, no, I'll show you. No, I think,
I think I teach. Okay. Oh yeah. You are a teacher. I think I teach. All right. I have, I have patience
for not me for not me. Very good. Before we continue, I wanted to give a quick reminder

You know, or you know what artists stop painting trees. Someone already did that. Yeah. Yeah.
Just look at Bob Ross. I was going to say, he was the first person to paint a tree.
Nobody else can do it. No more trees guys. Like he wasn't the first person, but he took painting
trees to an art form, you know, to a higher level. Yeah. He made them happy. So you can't make any
happy to the trees. No, there's a guy who does that too. Wait, really? You know what? There's
an opposite of Bob Ross and I can't remember his name. Is it Ross Bob? It's Rob Boss.
Instead of happy trees, it's like anger trees. Like it's wow. It's a thing. But I just want to
also apologize because I am not the historian of this group. So don't bank on me for giving you
years when people started making sweaters. Yes. The sweater invented in the 1900s,
you know, back 1920. They did them right before the depression.
No, the country, the country went into deep debt because everyone was buying that high quality
Merino. That was it. Oh no. And I am the group's historian. So you know, you got it here.
I used to be a trash person. That's what I'm saying. If you were a trash person, we won't.
No, hold on. I grew into a better person. I was going to say therapy is awesome. I was going to
say we wouldn't be friends, but I'm also a trash person. No, no. I'm sorry. I couldn't tell you
that you're not. I was like, wait, but if you were, I would we would never. Oh, hold on. Hold on.
Hold on. I'm also. Yeah. Yeah. I have grown as a person. We all have. We all have. Oh God,
you have to. Do you guys hear that? It stopped. It just sounded like that. Oh, was it you? I don't
know. No, it almost sounded like somebody was like tapping on the table. Was it just me? Maybe it was
just me. Maybe I'm crazy. Maybe it's the trying to like redo the move I was doing before. And I say,
no, it's not. It's like literally the minute I was like, do you hear that? It went silent.
So maybe it's me. Maybe it's the drugs. Maybe it's the drugs. The drugs forces from the afterlife.
Talk to us. Talk to us from the podcast. What? Tina, what the. Oh my God. We're not bringing
spirits here. No. Oh my God. No, let's not. I feel like that would be a really bad. Actually,
that'd be a funny movie. Depending on who. Four Nitters are doing a podcast. Suddenly out of the
dark, they summon the ghosts of the undead. Sounds like one of those D-list movies that are on Amazon
free that you like dare each other to watch. Well, guess what? I know you do. Our movie would
be on Amazon Prime. That's a success in my opinion. I don't care. It's on Amazon Prime.
The Lost Pastor like that. Oh, that's a great movie. I bet you've seen it too. Yes.
I have that in Lama Gettin. Lama Gettin. So good. They had a much bigger budget for that
film than what I originally thought. Better than House Shark. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Most things are,
but yes. Get that fly yet, Tina. Do you want me to get the raid? No. Raid? What are you going to
murder? What else do you do with the fly? We don't have a fly swatter. We have a raid and cats.
Did you get it? And Jess. You got it, didn't you? Oh, yeah. I got a splotch on my hands.
If he's not dead, he's injured. I like how we were arguing about how to kill the fly and just like
murder. I mean, murder is OK. It was given a chance. Anywho, I'm fine now. Just solved the problem.
Oh, you were close. How many are there? I think that might have been the one that fell on the floor.
I think it regained itself. You're supposed to kill it. Why did you just let me kill it? Because
I didn't see it. I went underneath the chair and I thought Mira got it, but she didn't.
This next clip is highly embarrassing for me, but the content that came out of it is too
awesome not to share. Although I have to say that.
That's not Adam West. Stephen West.
Adam West. I knew it was wrong when I said it. Amazing. My utility belt.
I mean, the.
Do you realize that if you didn't say anything, nobody would have known?
Oh, man, we're going to have so much good stuff. The blooper reel is the blooper reel.
Oh, my God, I'm so embarrassed. I'm sorry.
I feel so close to you. Do you know what? I also too, when I laugh too hard and
every time it happens when I'm at home, Frank is like, did you fart? We all know I farted.
We all heard it. It just went into Batman voice. It just gets me.
It's so bad. I knew it was wrong as it was coming out of my mouth. That's hilarious.
You don't know, maybe he nips on the sly. He would be like crying over his knitting needles.
He'll never be as good as the Joker. And the Joker and the Joker's the one like
coming out with a Stephen West show every frickin five days. And he's like, what the
heck? Why can't I do that? Now, now that needs to be a show where like Batman and his cohort of
people in his cast like fight over like who's the best fiber that we can stop animation, some legos
Catwoman always makes up for the arm.
I'm sorry. No, I just, Batman's like knitting and he's like, wait, wait, wait, wait, Catwoman.
It's all like bitten through.
Does that mean Robin tries to make like a nest with it?
Yeah. He finds it all in his room, like in the bed, like colorful pieces. And you know,
Vermont is beautiful this time of year. All that snow.
No, I don't need the snow. Oh my God. What is that from? It's from white Christmas.
I love white Christmas. Wow. Is that a movie? Oh my God. You haven't sat through white Christmas
with Dre. Okay. I know what we're doing this December. It's a good time. We got to do it.
It's it's like a Jess hates it. She'll be at work that day. It's a really long movie. It's got Danny
Kay. Here's the thing. And she sings all the great movie. All the songs. If you cut out about nine
of the 30 songs that have no business being there, but the dancing is the best part. It's a musical.
Oh, yes. A musical made in the 60s. It actually is a good movie. There are just, there are,
there are some really, really heartwarming parts of it. And there are some parts that you're like,
this is so much music. Okay. So rolling this back, I would make sure that the day would not be in
December and that Dre would not be there if it was December, because I don't want to watch that.
This is just you and me again.
Is this like, you also told me Lord of the Rings was amazing and guess what? It is amazing.
Guess what? No, it's not. Shame on all of you. You are overruled at this table. Yeah, good. Sorry.
Good. I will stay in my minority cocoon and barely got to the talking trees.
Barely. It shouldn't take seven hours to get to the talking. And man, it takes a really long time
to say anything. That's their, that's their whole bag. Like that's our deal. We can't do like seven
days later or some kind of like time lapse. We have to sit there for the seven days. No, because you
have to feel the pain, the pain of the characters. If Mary and Pippin had to sit through seven hours
of them saying hello to each other, then you know what we do too. All right. Well, I'm glad that
question came up. Let's, uh, well, instead it turned into my nightmare. I forgot what the original
question was. My question was a beautiful day that I love. Dream day. And now it's about. It just
crashes the party. Okay. But to be fair, Tina brought up Vermont. It's not my fault. Wow.
Oh my God. I guess you don't want to spend a relaxing day in Vermont because. Okay. I would
like to spend the day in a state with mountains that may have a good view. God. Why can't I just
like mountain views? That's all the time we have for this week's topics.
Now you sound like a sex phone operator. This isn't after hour. Thank you for calling the
Dreia hotline. Hit me one more time. And after all is said and done, the mixer sometimes likes to do
its own thing. I'm Dreia. I'm Meg. I'm Tina. In dumb jazz.
Oh, and this is pardon my stash. I forgot I'm hosting. Sorry. I was so focused on the music.
Pardon my stash.
Why is it so quiet?
I turned the knob the wrong way.
You know how I usually do a sound check? I'm like, oh my God.
You know how I usually do a sound check and I absolutely did not do a sound check.
Let me, I didn't do any, I'm an. Excellent. I didn't adjust. You are.
Excellent. Excellent. Yeah. I didn't. Yeah. Can't hear anybody. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on.
Hold on. I got to do the mics first. Then I'll do the things.
Very good, sir. Very good, sir. All right. How's that?
That's okay. You want me to do a music check? That's fine. That's fine. You fine?
I'm fine. You fine? You fine? Okay. All right. I'm just going to play. Sorry. Thank you.
Is that so loud? I guess I wasn't ready. Oh, I hit mine by accident. I'm sorry. I got up to nine.
I was just like. Mine sounded. It sounded fine to us and also you were just like, what the.
I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. No, like I think I knocked it when I went to go up and I hit it to nine.
I think you did. I think you did. I just crank it up to nine. That was it.
Put it back to where it was. Okay.

a small preview here from that episode about Jess's specific indulgence.
Who are you Jess? Myself here. Oh, God, I could tell you what yours is. Jess's indulgence when,
um, on the rare occasions when none of us are home, like, you know, our kid is at school,
I'm at work or I am doing something, is she goes downstairs, she gets in her chair,
she puts her blanket on, she watches YouTube, video game run throughs on YouTube.
Either video game run throughs or game theories or game theory.
Something, something to do with people playing video games.
People disappearing in creepy ways, you know.
Doesn't have the time. Oh yeah, like there's nothing like me opening YouTube and it's like,
watch what happens when people go into this mysterious cave. And I'm like, why?
Splunking gone wrong. Um, and she falls asleep.
Yeah, that's true. She falls asleep and then she.
I take a nap. So when I leave work on Wednesdays,
because technically she has to get her kid off the bus, um, I leave work and I call her
and she wakes up and I'm like, it's time to get back to, uh, to not doing what you're doing.
It's time for you to get ready to like, make sure your shoes are on so you can go get the.
That is Jess's me time. That is her.
She's, she's alone. She gets to just let the cat climbs into her lap and goes to sleep and
it's great. Sometimes multiple cats, if she's real lucky.
I'll wake up and be like, what the heck came on while I was, because YouTube just plays, man.
Now it's like grizzliest murders in the wilderness.
Cow hooves, you know, people trimming cow hooves.
Yeah. You never know what you're going to get.
Jess's YouTube is speaking of a mystery box, like that is Jess's YouTube algorithm.
Thank you so much for listening to us for this 2023 podcast year.
Last year we took a month off in January to take a break and organize content for the coming year.
We feel like that was a really good way to jumpstart our podcast for the new year.
So we will be taking January, 2024 off to plan for the coming season four episodes.
Our next episode will air on February 1st, 2024 and resume in the bi-weekly schedule there on out.
We love having you as a listener and to our members, a special thank you for supporting
our work on our podcast. We will see you next year with more laughs, tears, and Drea.
I can hear her in the distance yelling me at, pardon my stash. Happy holidays everyone.
Did you stop it?
Yeah.
Okay.
Did I? Oh no, I didn't.
