A list-snuff production. G'day legends and welcome to another rip episode of the Anti-Donna Podcast. This week the guys start in the Quantess Lounge, but where will it end? How could you seatbelt and put your tray table away? There's some turbulence coming. Remember, if you want to watch video versions of the podcast you can find them at antitonaclub.com. And now, a peak behind the curtain. There are so many different places in the world that we don't get to see, but today we thought we'd give you a little peek using drama, much like the crown or the queen.

This is a little play we've put together about three people bumping into each other in the quantest lounge. Hi, I'm Broden. I'm an actor from the University of Ballarat Arts Academy, graduate 2010. I played so Benedict of Padua in much of your about nothing and a book hunt in Europe. It is the book, the book I, my name is Mark Samuel Bonanno. I am a actor and an aspiring writer. I graduated from the University of Ballerats Arts Academy in 2011, where I played Odysseus in a pillar of salt,

which was an adaptation of the women of Troy, as well as Book IX of the Odyssey. And I played Sam Pickles in Cloud Street, Tim Winton's Cloud Street, as directed by Ross Hall. Today, all- The other playing for third year. I played a numerous roles. Peter Layla was one of them in a terrible madness, which was a play written by a crazy man from England

who plagiarized stole some stuff. I think it's okay. I think enough time has passed that we can talk about it. He stole, we found out that he stole, yeah, it's a right to play for. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. He stole, we found out that he stole, yeah, it's a ride of play for, it's a ride of play for 30 people. You put me onto this. You think you got the way I wasn't

in the mentioned in the audience. Terrible madness. A terrible madness. And someone say a terrible play. Or a terrible tragedy, a terrible plagiarism. I will be playing a boy, a young boy, and a aspiring musician, and I have a father who's taking me

into the lounge for my very first time. And of course, yes, every boy has a father. I will be playing that father. Hi, I'm Zachary Rewain. Also, an old boy of a university of Belarus. I know this isn't great for the people just listening, but if you are watching, we have a new table and it hasn't been locked down and we're moving it around right now and it is a lot of fun. So now we know that not ever most of our consumers are listeners, so we know you're probably listening

on your podcast app. Just imagine if you're not watching the video on the Antidona Club, imagine a big table with wheels being wobbled around. And now a battle isn't in between Mark and I over who can, this is a bad, this is bad. This. Yes. Leave the table because the people just listening don't know what's going on. Maybe there'll be a clip about it on social media. That'd be great. I'm not suggesting I'm not suggesting to take this clip and do it

But if you're so inclined You don't do the clips mark bottom you don't do the clips. I don't do the clips I don't even I don't even I don't any I trust we have a man. We have a boy. His name's Nick We got a couple of boys So Nick we got Jim got boys. We have boys that do editing for a fleet of boys Nick picks clips boys and girls Yes, so I'll be playing the father look. I think this is largely improvised I think we've maybe done a little more intro more intro than I was expecting Mm-hmm. I think we've maybe done a little more intro than I was expecting. I think as, as uh,

Euripides would say, we should just about dive in. Why would Euripides say that? No, no, no. Don't. It would be a translation from Ancient Greek. What did Euripides do? So we're going to just dive in. All right.

And maybe like a slash sound like Michael kill Kill him kill him Get out of the Michael clean is it clean? You're thinking of our sketch kill you've got bite You've got the Olympics with With our sketch get out of the kill. I was gonna say Peter Phelps first, is he a swimmer?

No, that Michael Phelps. See, I just, like, I got no idea where it comes to swimmers. And then the Phelps family are the famous Westboro Baptist Church from the US, who I believe Michael Phelps is a member of. Right. And I think all plays start with an action.

And action. Oh Steve, how are you? Oh yes. Oh John, how are you? Yeah good to see you. You're worried off to today. Just up to Canberra for the day, but my son here, he's going up to city,

you've met, you've met, I'm sorry, I forgot the other day. Dad, are you serious? Oh, you know, I've met, you've met, I'm sorry, I've forgotten. You're not. Dad, are you serious? Oh, you know, I've never, I provide for you in other ways. That's true. He sends me money every week. He pays for my rent. This is my adult son.

Hello, adult son, what's your name? My name is Phil, Philah. Hi, Philah. Hi. Philah, it's welcome to the Quantus Lounge. I'm a businessman. I've never been in the lounge and I got to say, when I saw their meigs, I was pretty impressed.

It's kind of fun, I think, the best part of being a platinum member of Quantus is that you have to bring your family and your friends in, show them around the lounge. It's one of the great joys of my life as a businessman, is to come in here and say, ha ha ha. Hey, we're going to Fiji, but let's go past the condos lounge.

I travel a lot and look what I live, like my wife and children. Are you going on a holiday to Fiji? Now, are you, is this a work? No, no, you'll see by my polo shirt that my refrigeration company is going up to Sydney to for a conference. It's 1998 and all meetings happen on the in person.

Sorry, Phillip, just so you know, I know this myself, Phillip, I know that you're thinking right now, but it's 2023, that's outside. Here at the Contours Lounge, it's always the 1898. Oh, oh, oh. These televisions have the news on, because as a businessman, you need to always be across the news.

You'll see the Australian newspaper in all of these stores, keeping us up to date with the news, and then some halved peaches. So you can pick them up and have a bowl of halved peaches. Daddy. Oh, yes. Daddy, what does your friend do for business?

Well, as he said, you work in refrigeration, yes. Yes. Last time I saw you, you worked in leopards. Yes. But I'm in refrigeration there. Yes, I move. I've been in Jack of all master of none, but I've worked in Leipins. Yes, I moved. I'm in refrigeration there. Yes, I moved. I've been in Jack of all master of none, but I've worked in refrigeration.

I had the moment fridge right. Before that, I worked in weaponry and arms dealers. Before that, I worked in chockies. Worked for Nestle. Before that Fox tell. And the rest is history. Now, as you know, Phil, I can't tell, even you what I do for work, but...

Yeah, Daddy doesn't say, Daddy says no when... So you're calling him Daddy a bit, as an adult, cool. That's what I've been told to do. Right, so I worked for a time, I worked for Peter Costello as he's in his staff He pays me every week. Yep. Wait, what are you saying, Philip? Nothing daddy. I'm just I'm gonna go to have a shower. Oh

Yes You coming back as a character or you're just going to have a shower? No, well daddy said that I could have a shower. Right, this is weird. Why? Now how are the kids? They're good. Yeah. Yeah they well, and your wife?

She's good, she's good. Yes, yes. Right, any questions for me? Time out. Yeah. Just a couple of music. The music stopped before you. Yeah, I think it felt it. It felt timeing out.

Now, here's my question. Are we going to do the time out? Yeah, this we are. I think we have to go as deep as we've gone before in the past time out. But if you've chosen to go time out as we've gone before in the past. But if you've chosen to go time out, if that's how you've chosen to pull out of this, then I think it's open now. So my question is, you brought in before we discuss the scene, we are right now the

wankier theatre versions of us. Yes. I guess. Because the intro, the world that we were in before we went straight into it, was a wankier version of us where we were still proud of our third year productions that we defined ourselves. Yeah, the actors. Yeah. Getting a reading of a pleasure. That's where we are now. Like, yeah, I see these were twice as long as they are now, but just. Because Broden, Amateur Theatre shows

at La Momma Courthouse. Even in an improvisation, which is what we're doing right now, or in Layla too. Yeah, even in an improvisation, right? The audience doesn't need to know all these details about I'm a version of Zach that stayed in the theater world and you're a version,

but theater is like an iceberg. Yeah. What they say is, It's cold. It's script is that small little thing peaking above the water and what we do underneath it, that improvisation, that performance is informed by a much bigger wealth of material and ideas.

And that's why they call it the rehearsal. Yeah. And much like a nice bird. Theater. Rehearsal. Rehearsal. What does that mean? You don't challenge what I say. You just go, you just, hmm.

Theater, much like a nice bird. Can sink an unsinkable ship. Now also Mark, you might have noticed Mark said, I spurred. No, well, you don have noticed Mark said iceberg. No, well you don't have to, yeah, but then you guys kept talking, I came back to it and then I re-said iceberg. So there's no need.

No issue with saying iceberg. Now I've made a real conscious, sorry, timeout. Oh no. Oh no. But I just wanna check with you if you're cool with me. It was just because the image of an iceberg, I thought it was ripe for discussion. Is it a bird made out of an ice?

Could it that be what this means? I just think after me not being able to name a single swimmer, I don't need this sort of tension. We don't have to go into it. When we go back into that time out, we don't have to... Oh, God. We did this for three. You did this.

I did. And when I did the first time out, put my hands up to go, do I really want to go here? Here's my, this was my, this is what I saw. Sorry, I've got wheels for hands and feet. I need to, all right. So I did this well, but no. Just as we discussed before you say what you're about to say. Yeah. I just want to know, I just want everyone to know that we're like return from us.

We've all got wheels for hands and wheels for feet and the way we move is like we've got really long arms. So we wheel around. We were doing a play. We called time out of that. Took us to another realm and now you've called time out again We're in the third realm. If you have you want to take notes to keep track, that would be a good idea. Sorry Mark, what were you gonna say? Well, I do feel like whatever I have to say has to be in another timeout because the timeout that we're currently in was a timeout.

It was a timeout designated solely for Zach to talk to me about whether or not he can bring up my, you know, vocabulary misgiving. This is the first podcast we've done back in six months to be fully open as well. Yeah, we banked a bunch six months. I don't know if anyone noticed, but we banked some at the start of the year.

I don't think we've been releasing them slowly over the course of the year. I think we've done it seamless. I think we've done it flawless. Yeah, it was seamless. I think someone mentioned, we may have mentioned it was November 2022 at some point, but that was a joke. Yeah, that was, we were just fucking around and yeah our producers changed but they

change like the wind. Yeah because no one wants to work with us. Now I was going to say a thing this doesn't feel like an appropriate timeout space. I won't you to know that every world is rich it's a whole world yes, how much money do I have? This is the time out here. I don't know But this yes is the time out where I called it to see if you're okay with me saying iceberg But also it's the time out where we have wheels instead of heads of feet. That's great and your rich here that's sick I'm gonna pay you. I'm just gonna give you how much do you guys want? I'll have four frogs because money in this time out is counted in frogs. Four frogs? You got that note, bro.

Okay, so this rod I've got iceberg wheels hand. The ice bird is in the last. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I spurred time out. Well, in this, I'm gonna take hold of this time out because in this time out, I get to explain what I thought happened at the first time out. Okay. Which was when Broden said time out, in no way did I think, my brain did not accept that you were possibly doing

that bit again because we've been there. And I thought you were genuinely saying, hey, maybe let's re-evaluate this podcast. Like, did Mark have made the decision? Is this a question to Brodon here? No, this is just my observation about what I saw happen. He went timeout and I think you understood immediately the problem was doing the timeout joke. I think like, what have you done? Yeah. I thought

this is a retrospective layer. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I thought what you're about to say. Because I remember this, I was I think 33 then. It happened two seconds ago. No, it happened two seconds ago with that one. Oh, but I'm now an old man. Yeah. Okay, I wrote that down. And this is a distant memory for me. Yes, yes, I think I remember that. Podcast recording, Mark. Anyway, I just thought there was no genuine way

you were doing the timeout gag. And I was like, this is a real burden, is actually asking for a timeout. Before you say, my bet was same as you, that he was doing a real timeout and immediately realized as soon as he did it, what he was doing. Well, what I felt, this is truly what I felt.

As we walked back in here, we haven't been back in the studio for six months, we went on a world tour, we went to France, this is the first thing I went to France. Is that because of frogs? Maybe. They, it was a fucking item there. They ate them there. But in this world, they just eat them live.

Oh, look, a little frog. Yeah, they're all just there straight out of the pond. Oh, I have got a little frog. So in this room, a new, a little frog. I'll just see a straight out of the pond. I have got a little frog. So in this room, Mark is eating live frogs. Yeah, Mark is in control. Zach is old and they eat frogs live. We're all old.

Okay, we're all old. Time works differently in this time out. I haven't thought about the time out episode in a while. Is what I'm trying to say. We're back in the room. It's like, we got lots of fresh new ideas. We're ready to go. We're gonna set this in a quantus lounge.

We're 30 to a minute in. And I look at you, I feel like I've got nothing here. And so my instinct, in my impulse in that moment, is to just throw the time out. And now we're here. We didn't even get to the party pies in the conscious lounge. Well, we got to go back. We didn't get, we're never going back.

I really think we should. I don't think we should go deeper into the timeouts. I think this is an opportunity. It's my fault. I blame you for this completely. There's no question about that. Because I was, I, you said you looked at me and you saw panic in my eyes. I saw, you looked at me and you saw panic in my eyes.

I saw, the only reason you saw panic in my eyes is because I looked at you and saw panic in your eyes. And I accept that. I was like, oh great, Mark's made a great offer that he's not my son but rather a sugar baby that I am paying him a weekly fee to travel with me, maybe go on dates with me. He was going to have a shower in the lounge, presumably because I like him clean. Now that's some really interesting stuff

for a lot of shit. For a podcast back. Absolutely, and I tend to you, and I go, well, maybe you want to ask some questions about this boy showering. This legal boy. Oh, it's absolutely, it's all above board. Rent man.

Oh yeah, I'm a man. I should. Yeah, and you, instead of that, you will, like, and I was like, oh, and then you call time out. Now, in those moments, I have two triggers there. I can call time out or I can just go, hey it's man-based, that's all I've got. That's fair.

You could have just said, would you like to get some party pies? You could have said, there's so many things to do in the lounge. You could have said party pies. Yeah. Well you can get scrambled eggs. Yeah, okay. You can get a hot boiled eggs. You could have said, you can get party pies. Yeah. Well, you can get scrambled eggs. Yeah, okay. You can get a hot boiled eggs.

You could have said, oh, is that sparkling water? You could have said, now what is it you do for? I said, hey, cake machine, how were the kids? Because what I wanted you to say, and I wanted to give you more. How are your kids, and I was gonna say, I don't have any kids. Yeah.

Oh. Yeah. So, not only did I give you a question that you could have reflected back at me in normal conversation, that's not even improvisation bro. And that's conversational timeout. I am the iceberg. Okay so I've got this level is iceberg layer. Oh, ooh, oh, iceberg. I am the iceberg. I thought you said, Berg.

I am meat of ice. And you are a bird. Oh great, let's meet the iceberg, how are your kids? Oh, I have no children. Well, I don't know. But I do have a sugar baby. Oh, hi. This is my sugar baby. Oh! Hi. This is my sugar baby.

I'm a firebird. Oh, cool. How does that work? Ooh. Well, have you seen Elemental from Pixar? No, I stopped. I stopped with all of that. Yeah. But tell me about it.

Well, then we've report you to the Pixar police. Oh, no, not the Pixar police. Time out. So it is a time-edout episode that we're doing. Uh, should we, do you want to go see the crowning of the queen? Is it, and what, okay? Yes, I do. Queen Victoria.

Time out. Do you want to go see the crowning of my poo? In this world, the poo is the queen. Time out. I've lost. You gotta kick that. You don't have to take that. I reckon we should go back.

This is what I reckon we should do. I think we've found ourselves in a timeout loop again. No one wanted this, no one expected this. This episode is, we're back. Yeah, but to us it's that, to them, this is just the week after the poo, poo, poo, poo, poo sketch. Yeah. Which is, so they're just, you know,

we've been away a long time. Yeah. But to them, they've just had one of the best sketches of our, one of the best podcasts of our life. Oh yeah, I call them sketches sketches because I haven't done a podcast in six months. Yeah, it's a podcast. Timeout.

I'm worried about the fact that we're playing characters that haven't done a podcast in a while because we've done nothing but podcast. From the moment I was born, I was podcasting. They put a little microphone in front of me. And every human has a podcast microphone in front of them. Yeah, love that. And in this world, in our world, yeah, in our universe.

And every human, and they have an alien from another planet who is like their fan and listens to them for their whole life. What? What? What? You get it? This has been your whole life. No, I don't. I've been doing this your whole life. No, I haven't. I can, on my podcast, which I've had my whole life, let me go through the layers of the world. There's the Quantis Lounge. Which I would love to get back to because I think there's some fruitful material there.

There's actor world. There's actor world where Mark said iceberg. There is wheels for hands, money is frogs, and also, zags checking if it's okay to make a thing of the iceberg. I think that was the previous one. No, no, that was the same. Because you said this is just the one

where Zach's just checking if it's okay and I said also hands for wheels. Well then you need to fucking, you need to get this list up there. I'm trying to keep it accurate, man. Because remember, there's also the layer with the timeout thing, where it's also a timeout. So sometimes there's a bleed.

So the issue of one timeout, what do we call them? Timeout. This is a sub timeout. So this isn't a full timeout. This is just a sub timeout where Zach is asking a question about what we call a certain thing. And as soon as he gets his answer, we're going to loop it right back into the time out. Is that fair to say?

I mean, I don't know. I'm really confused. All I know is that when you're spurred to happen in one time out, and then the next time out was created, because of iceberg. Yes. And then for iceberg, but also we have to have wheels for hands. The next layer is markers in control. Zach is old. We're all old.

We're all old. It's years in the future. Time works differently there. So before we go back there, I have to figure out what's happened while we've been away. Sorry. We'd all be dead by now. Oh, yeah. Below that is the iceberg realm the iceberg realm where he's in a relationship with a firebird

Uh-huh, and then below that is the world where we're Queen Victoria is alive or is it the reign of Queen Victoria? Similar to the other one time moves more slowly the next one is where marks crowning a poo Um below that is rule To rule over my ass. Yeah, yeah. What? I was crowning a poo. A poo was, it's a double crowning.

Because when something is crowning, it means the head is coming out. Like with the bump. Like with the boop. I know. No argument from me. And so I've given from me at all. Yeah. And so as a poo is crowning,

crown goes on and then the ass is being ruled for that moment in time. Oh, it's a double crown. It's a double crown. And then the next world is reflective about the podcast app. It's this one, are we in it right now? No.

And the next one is worried about characters not playing podcasts, but we're in podcast world. That sounds reflective. Let's say that again. Zach is worried about characters. You've lost your mind. Yeah, no, I know. You've lost track of what's happening, and you've lost your mind.

But that can't be because this is our only rope back to... Oh, we have a rope to the surface world. Oh, yeah, right. Yes, yes, I understand. Like a metaphorical rope. When Bart had the rope, it was really well. Yeah surface world. Oh, yeah, right. Yes, yes, I understand. Like a metaphorical rope. When Bart had the rope. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. The 3D, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Time out. I just wanted to check one thing. Yes. I worry that that one was becoming a bit too like... thinking, working out what's going on. And I just think maybe we could do a more fun time out here. Yeah, great, great. Welcome to Soup City.

Good, yeah, yeah. Oh God, I gotta get in my soup and get to soup, which is work. Yeah, soup is where I work too, but a different soup to you. I want soup, do you work in? Minestrone. Oh, that's great.

I work in crab bisque. Yes, and I am a soup. And I drive a chicken soup. Mm-hmm, mm-hmm. Oh no, it's great. I work in crab bisque. Yes. And I am a soup. And I drive a chicken soup. Oh no. It's me, bread. Oh god. He's going to suck us up. Sakes, sakes, sakes, sakes, sakes.

When will the rain of sourdough Sam stop? Probably when the seasons change. that's when the rain of sailor Sam will stop because we're currently in winter, which is quite a rainy season. And his greatest fear, the great evil bread is of course iceberg. Ice-bird? Because birds eat bread. I've heard rumors of birds, ice bird. Hey, I have an idea. We've all been souping, working. All soup week. Yeah, can you, every time you do a soup

for a word, think, can you say the real word? I think we should take a soup of occasion. So let's go to the soup, airport. And maybe I'm a, I'm a soup member, a platinum. Why don't we go to the soup? The lounge and get some soup. That sounds soup. Good. Soup, would you care to join us? What's that?

I would, but I just wanna ask one question. Soup, go ahead. Super way. But fire away. But it's not in character. Oh, for soup. For sure. So I think I might have to call a soup. Soup means yes, yeah?

No, soup. Time out. Time out. All right. Soup. So we're joined here today by Mark Bononol. Oh, hello. Hey, Mark. Tell me. Tell me. Oh, hello. Hey, Mark. How are you?

Tell me. Oh, tell me, Mark. Yes. You're the member of Anci-Dotto with the red hair and beard and the big muscles. Thank you. Right. Broder is the little Italian one with the bigger beard. I sure am.

Oh, I'm angry. And Zack. Zack is a... a cheesel. Where'd you get the idea for the third member of your group to be a chisel? Well, we do a lot of soup-based comedy. Yes. I'm bringing it back to the scene. Well, because this is a timeout from soup.

So it's in it is... So in this world, soup is the stories of this timeout. Do you understand? Yeah. No. So in this world, we're aware of soup, but soup's not aware of us. Soup city, soup city is an imagined world here. What? So we're aware of soup city. Can we just go back to soup city? I really liked

soup city. It was warm, it was nourishing. It was perfect for a winter day. But this has been a time out. It's been a time out. Yes. This is a time out out of Super City. Croutons. Mmm. Coriander.

The only problem with Super City is you can't eat. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You know, they'll take it or leave it. I'm happy to go back to Super City. But how can you, can we, I feel like we could be Super presenters radio in soup city,

if you wanted to keep the soup thing going right here. When you said soup city, I think. So I used to say soup here as well. Well, I was just trying to like, I missed the soup. Soup. Yeah, soup. Time out. So in the radio world,

uh huh. Does Mark also say soup instead of words? No, in the radio world, Mark, we're Mark and Broden, the Swap Zach is a cheesel. Yeah, that's part of, I think, I just our name swapped. Yes, we have the same, yeah, broden and Mark and all your personalities have swapped your name, but you were achieved. But to be very clear, I wanna be clear here in radio world, it's not that your names have swapped, that your names are the only things that stayed where they were and everything else swapped.

Right. Does that make sense? A point of perspective or soup. Oh, we use soup here as well. No, that's very well-used. In this world, English language. But everyone understands soup language. Yeah, we all have great super-awareness.

Soup, yes. So, the story. Because of the radio, the stories about the radio world, which also have stories about soup in the... I think this episode should be called soup. Yep. Just soup full stop. Podcast.

Soup. Podcast. I'm having to go back to the Clintus Land. I'm having to go back to the Clontest lands. I'm happy to keep going. Well, I don't know if you like We're tracking what was going on the soup city kept saying soup man. I was explaining myself. But no idea what you're doing You just kept saying soup in soup city The new what is soup? You do a impure indices what soup city is That's just soup city, man, soup city. Oh, yeah.

So, wait, say like, in soup city, soup city, we all worked at different soups, we drove different soups, workplaces, cars, and we were gonna go to the soup airport for a soup vacation. And because I was a super member,

platinum of soup, quantus, we were going to go to the soup lounge. And I was going to bring back the soup lounge, soup, play, from the first soup time out, pre-time out, to soup, keep going with the podcast. Do you worry though? Because again, I didn't really follow much of that for me. You would just say it's super light Time soup time out time out Time time out is what I said

Mark you called to time out Wow, it's great to be back in Soup City. Thank you, Soup. Wait a sec. Oh yeah, let's all jump in our soups. Wait a second. Something's wrong with Soup City. Soup?

What? I can't place it. Everything seems right. Our soups, cars, driving along the soups. I always. The soups, towers, standards, soup, tall, as they always have. Mm.

Soup, yes. Tell me, who is the leader of soup city? Oh, why that's in your soup. In your soup. I have a distant memory. In my memory, the leader of Soup City was a despoit named Saladosam. This isn't Soup City, but rather a hologram of Soup City. What can you say?

It's a soup hologram. Or you could say it's a hologram soup. But don't you understand, there's never soup hologram. Or you could say it's a hologram soup, but don't you understand there's never been any soup because we're on the holodeck of the US's enterprise on our way to Ryser, the vacation planet. Oh, that sounds soup. Confusing, yeah. Is there soup on this,

yeah. On this soup ship. Yeah, in fact, in fact, the soup, yes, and go to the replicator and get soup. Come on, let's get out of the holodeck and go into the USS Enterprise. I'll show you around. Soup. What do you mean I can go to the replicator and get soup? What's soup? Time out.

Wait, why you keep doing soup? Well, because you hadn't explained what soup was in the replicator situation. So I was trying to be like, what is soup? And then you would have gone, oh soup is soup. Pastor. Soup. Or soup. So, in every world, synth soup city. Soup. Or soup. Or soup. So, in every world, since soup city, like every food is just called soup.

No. No. Everything is soup. Well, some things are soup. Soup. I've got a visualized soup city. In my mind, soup city looked like a normal city, but things were called soup. But in me, it was made of soup.

Well, for me, it was Gotham. Soup. For me, it was gothum. Soup. For me, it was soup gothum. Just thank you for correcting me there. And I can't with the soup too. It's the only thing we got, dude. It's the only thing we got. We got soup. Okay, we can go back.

We'll go back to the last one. No, we can't go back now. We're too soup deep. So you're telling me about'll go back to the last. No, we can't go back. We can we're two soup deep So you're telling me about Gotham in the last one. Could you think you can pick up where you left off soup? I was gonna Yes, I was gonna introduce soup Batman the savior of soup soup city But my question is when you say soup for cars Are you imagine cars called soup or are you imagining cars called soup, or are you imagining big bowls of soup?

Balls of soup, balls of soup. Big bowls of soup. Balls of soup. Balls of soup. Okay, so there's a language barrier here. So I was imagining a bowl of cars. Do you see what I'm saying here? If you use the word soup for cars.

I changed my mind. This episode should be called the Quantest Lounge. Yeah. If you... If you... makes the word soup for cars, and I'm trying to get clarity on what the cars look like. A bowl of cars, I explained it. Or soup.

Cars. Can you draw a visual picture for me? What's it made of? A bowl. Sure. I can draw a picture picture for me? What's it made of? A bowl. Sure. I can draw a picture. Pass me a soup. Pencil.

Pencil. But that's a visual thing. I think we need to describe it. But I worry that with, if you use the word soup for everything, I'm never going to get a mental picture. Maintain in soup world. Soup world. Soup city. Soup city. Soup city, the capital of soup world. Soup city. I'm never gonna get a content in Super world super world Super city

Super city Super city the capital Super world Super city Whenever I go down I'm clarifying what that's super man Alright So I would It's very simple

It's very simple Super city read super Let me explain it You just thought I'm trying to explain it You just keep talking over the top of me Yeah I'm sorry If I was gonna draw I'm trying to explain it. You just keep talking over the top of me. Yeah, I'm sorry if I was gonna draw I'm soup. I've got a really good character soup

That but you finish your soup. I was just statement. I'm full. I can't have another I cannot have another Me mark what I really need to know Because I'm not on board with a world where everything's cold soup. Soup. I'm not on board with a world where everything's made of soup. Soup.

Sure. I am on board with a world that looks like a normal city except instead of cars. They have big bowls of soup. The people get in. Yes. Let me describe it, They get in it.

And they drive around thinker, like the tea cups at Disneyland? Yes. But they're filled with soup. So whenever they get out, they've got soup up to their chest. Yeah, I see that soup. And that is what it looks like. Big bowls of wet soup. Why said I drive a chicken noodle, I think?

Yeah. Okay. That's all I need to know. I am now 100% on board with all this soup bullshit. So long as I've got my visual of a big bunch of balls of soup driving down the freeway. You were talking about Superman before. Superman.

Well, that's Superman. But is Superman, because he's the right, yeah, Batman. What? Superman. Superman. Superman, Superman. Batman. Superman, Superman, Batman is Batman. Superman is Superman. Right. Superman is Batman.

Why? Super than super, super city, super world. Both have to be super and they are. Yeah. And the super mobile would be car mobile. No, it's a, it's a, it's a, That's a big car that delivers soup. So your soup, your soup, soup.

Your soup soup is driving around the subway. Yeah, whatever. Ha ha ha. Your soup soup is driving down the right freeway. You need not don't have enough soup in the soup to be gone. You think you have to every time you ain't say soup. Yeah, unless it's soup. Unless it's soup.

That's why I'm translating. Because you wouldn't say, because you've been saying soup car, but it's not a car, it's a big bowl of soup. No, but in soup city, soup world, it is a soup car. I think it's too rough of a translation. I think at best you should say, you're driving down the freeway in your soup,

big bowl of soup, you're driving. For my clarity. I think we just fundamentally have different ideas. I'm not a native soup speaker. No one is. We made no soup speaker. We're native soup speaker. No one is. We made no we're all soup dead because I'm soup

Wow and I love soup and I've been having soup every day since I was soup years old I get in my soup like a downroot 60 soup. I love soup and it's all right. America's beautiful, America's soup to do.

And that was Zachary Ruim with going down Route Soupty 6 and you're listening to the station that just plays that song and here it is again. Going down to Route Sixty Soup, the best damn road in all of US soup. I'm a man and I love to drive my soup.

Was working in a construction soup every day working for the soup. How do I name soup? And three kids called soup, soup and soup. Gonna get off the road, 60 soup, try my soup down to Cala soup, soup in my hair every single day. I know we should say something jump in at some point, but I've never been less motivated to do so.

I've never been happier in my life. This is what we've been working towards for I think a decade. Remember when we first got together and we got to find that sound? Yes, soup. This is the sound we've been looking for. It's zaxing this song about traveling across the USA

where everything's soup. I have to tell you right now, this is one of my favorite songs, Soup, that I have ever heard in my life. Soup, soup. Checking into a motel soup, getting a room, a room for soup, one down gonna go to a motel soup tonight. Head to the bar, grab a room for soup, one, they're gonna go to a motel soup tonight, head to the bar, grab a glass of soup and sit in there, telling all my soup stories when I see your man, I pull

out a big knife, he stabs me in a die of soup, I'm bleeding soup all over the place. This is my last thought I wish I was with my wife. You almost said soup there I did. She's my wife, she's made of soup. I left her a good rock drive on the root 60 soup. And now I'm lying in this motel, I'm bleeding out soup, I'm gonna die. It's only in this moment when you realize that Kalasoup was always in my mind

Wow, that's incredible Metaphor? What would you call an epic? Yeah, it's kind of like American Pie Yeah, that was a whole story We're sitting here for an in-depth chat We're the Zach Rewain, the creator of the 60-suit, Route 60-soup. Yeah, thanks man, thanks for having me. Where did the original idea for Route 60-soup come from?

And also, how did you get the name Route 60-soup? And also, where were you born? Right, so I was born in... First question. Answer the first question first, please. What was the first question? I don't know. Where did you get the idea for...

Yeah, first of all, yeah, 60 soup. So, this world, right? Things sometimes soup, sometimes not words of soup. In this world, Route 66 is called root 60 soup. Yeah, we know. That's a big road from Chicago to Cala soup. Yeah, we know. It's a big part of US soup's iconography

and those sorts of things. It's a story of freedom. It's a story of working for the man. And I think sometimes people take these ideas in their mind and they try to make them literal. We're living in the age of InstaSoup. InstaGram. InstaGram.

Yeah. And I think this is an old story. It's set in the 60s. It was originally sung by Soup. It's a cover of Soup. Soup song. You know Soup? Oh no Soup. I, it's a cover. With Soup. Soup song, you know Soup? Oh no Soup. I think that was a cover.

Yeah it's a cover of Soup song. Like Soup. Cream. And I just felt like the way we always like, people look at Soups on Insta Soup and they go, wow we should look like that Soup. That's a good message to end on is, and we can't, we can end, can't we?

Well, I think so. Can we end soon? Yeah. So here's the thing. People are looking at soup, so they can, God, I wish I looked like that soup. But it's a message for everyone.

Yeah, yeah. But this has been the Quantess Lounge episode of the podcast where we explored the Quantess Lounge, and Zach's got a message for all the soups out there. Well, all the people out there. So you're sitting on InstaSoup, you're scrolling through, you see a big bowl of beautiful soup. So is it a message for our real audience of humans?

Okay, so we're in a different universe. In this universe, where are all people? Yes. But beauty standards are set by bowls of soup. Wait, the literal bowls of soup. So what I'm saying to our listeners is, that's impossible. Is that not a car though?

What? Is that not a car? What do you mean a car? No, that's a bowl of soup. No, no, no, this is like a bowl of soup you'd have on your plate. Car soup's a big. Very big as a car.

Right. How if, okay. I'm just getting clarity there. All right, yeah, yeah. You can fit two people in a bowl of soup car. Maybe four if they sit around. That's just a bowl of soup, right? Yeah. That's what we call them, bowls of soup. It's not a bowl of soup car. Yeah, It's just a bowl of soup, right? Yeah. That's what we call them, bowls of soup.

It's not a bowl of soup, car. Yeah, it's just a bowl of soup, car. Yeah, but for clarity for you, because you're confused, bowl of soup, car. Right, right. But the beauty standard is a small bowl of soup on a plate on a table. Right, so I'm saying,

is it closest to any soup? Is a message to all the humans out there who are worried about self-image? You know, people are long. They go a little bit hanging off of you. They go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go,

they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, yeah, they go, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, they go, yeah, they go, they go, yeah, they go, yeah, they go, they go, yeah, you'll never, you'll never be able to find any similarities between yourself and a bowl of soup. Your matter. You matter. It doesn't matter how big you get your chest.

You can hit the gym every single day. You can get a really big chest. It's never going to be so much bigger than your bottom. The top of a bowl of soup. Yeah. It's so much bigger than the bottom of a bowl of soup. You're never gonna get that. You can spend thousands of dollars

going to a plastic surgeon, getting your lips filled, getting your brow ticked, and so you will never look like a cream of corn. No, more of a mug, even a mug of soup, like someone a worker. That's achievable if you work hard. Okay, if you work hard, you could be a mug of soup. That's the thing.

You know, 30 years ago, people were trying to look like Mugs of Soup. You look at Arnie, right? He was Mr. Olympia, right? He looked like a Mug of Soup. Now those guys are looking like balls of soup. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? Yeah.

And young boys and girls, people look like balls of soup. The rock-dwaing Johnson looks like two big balls of soups. In this world, you just said that no one can look ever look like soup. You can think he's doing that, you think he's doing that. He has, he has a chef. Oh, he has a chef.

He has a chef. He has a chef. Have you seen his cheat days? You cannot look like a ball of soup if you're a normal person. I thought I was being more literal. Like, you can't look like a shift. Have you seen his cheat days? You cannot look like a bowl of soup if you're a normal person. I thought I was being more literal. Like you can't look like a super. You're saying you can achieve soup.

In this world, the rock, the Kardashians, they've gotten pretty close to soup. They've got the money, they've got the main. And that is the beauty standard. And the studios are paying for it. They chop off their legs. Chop, chop off their arms. Chop off their arms. And they get real big up top. Yeah.

Real little at the bottom. Put some style cream on their head. Yeah. Sometimes or a yogurt for the Kardashians. That's what's invoked. A lot of people just think it's the ball, it's the soup that they're working on, but it's not, it's the balls as well.

They're getting glazed. And you don't see that. They don't tell you that. Glazed. They get like a ball. The ball is getting glazed. The ball is getting glazed and you don't see that. They don't tell you that. Glazed. They get like a bowl. The bowl is getting glazed. The bowl is getting glazed and they don't tell you that

and I look at that and I go, why aren't I glazed? And to close us out this week, a little quote from all of us about that is inspiring, it's gonna lead you into the week. Mark, there is nothing more soup like than liquid soup in its natural form. Think about that, take that into your workday and not to lunch. No.
