Starting point is 00:00:00 Hey, what's going on? Quinn David Furnace, welcome to my show. Quinn David Furnace presents the Bean Town podcast for Sunday, July 5, 2020. What's going on? How are you? What's happening? My name is Quinn and welcome back to the video cast. I hope this works.
Starting point is 00:00:25 If it doesn't work, then you'll never have seen it anyways. We had one show, one video cast maybe a month ago after our initial successful first one where we taped a video with the podcast and wasn't able to get it to work. Update, we ordered an external SD card reader and that's, that's the goal. We're hoping that that works. I tested it out before this. It works great.
Starting point is 00:00:54 So I think we'll be in good shape to get that going. My name is Quinn. This is my show. Thanks for tuning in. Welcome to my living room. I decided that we weren't going to try to do the audio syncing to the YouTube file and the video file and the reason for that is just because my YouTube audience is such a small audience anyways and I think the camera audio is fine. I don't think it's that low quality. I think if you're watching me on YouTube, I think you can hear me just fine.
Starting point is 00:01:29 You might be asking yourself, why not just do it anyways? It's pretty easy, right? Well, that's where you'd be wrong. Because working on my Mac is like, it's rough, man. It's really slow. And the syncing on iMovie is just really hard to do and it's more than
Starting point is 00:01:51 anything else it just causes me a lot of stress okay and it's my easy breezy summer right we're not supposed to have stress so that's that's what we're going for. It's Sunday, July 5th, kind of toasty. We're gonna do this in the middle of the afternoon here. I got my tower fan over this side to my left. And I turned it off when I do recordings because it's pretty loud. But tell you what, the second we stop recording that baby comes back on, it's very powerful.
Starting point is 00:02:22 For those of you who don't know, I don't have AC in this apartment. There's no central air. Everyone else in all the other units in my building have just window units. But I'm good without it, you know. There are some days and we haven't really had it so far this year, but we're getting there this next week
Starting point is 00:02:40 is gonna be pretty warm, where you feel it, especially this year, working from home, because that's, you know, that was the biggest thing last year. It'll Monday through Friday or last summer, go into the office and never have to worry about. My apartment being too hot, because I'm only home, you know, before 8 a.m. and after 6 p.m. So it's never really an issue. It's just on the weekends when I'd be hanging out at home during the day when it would get a little bit hot. Now I'm home during the day, every day, for the most part. So we're going to see this next week, I think it's high
Starting point is 00:03:16 80s all week. It's going to be our first big test. Although I'll tell you this, I think I might need to invest in a new weather app for my phone. So I've just been using the basic Apple weather app that comes with your iPhone for years. Ever since I've had an iPhone, literally five, six years at this point. But what I've been noticing recently is that it'll say,
Starting point is 00:03:44 today, for example, high of 81 in sunny and it's based off of my phone's location. So it's not just like generic Chicago which can have a lot of variance. That I would understand. No, this is specific to my phone's location. But I mean by the time we went out and got baggles this morning, it was like 85 and sunny and the humidity was really high. We walk pass in an external thermometer or an outdoor thermometer that had the temp at 91 already by about 10 a.m. and you can feel it. It feels that hot and that was just this morning. So it's now this afternoon.
Starting point is 00:04:26 Very sunny. Yeah, my phone now is like 89 degrees. And you know, earlier today it was like high of 81 today. Well, it's been doing that every day lately. So I guess I've learned to just add an extra like 10 degrees Fahrenheit to whatever it says. Anyways, this is my show. This is my voice.
Starting point is 00:04:49 I am the creator host and showrunner of, you know, Quinn David first presents the Bean Tom podcast. Showrunner has always been an interesting term. Like, I understand what it means, but why do some shows have a show runner and then other shows, you know, just have producers, creators, writers, etc. I don't really get it. Listen to discretion is advised when you're listening to the bean-town podcast number one, we'll occasionally use some language.
Starting point is 00:05:16 And number two, this podcast is objectively terrible. Lots going on since we've talked to you last last been 10 days since I last recorded a show. I went to Dorck County. Dorck County with Scotsin last weekend, had a little three-day weekend. I took my first vacation day of 2020, which was great, and got away for, you know, 48 hours, had some cherries, had some really good food, a really good brunch stuffed toast, and some coffee. Man, that's just... that's the top, isn't it? When you can just go hang out, you got no agenda, you have some good food, some coffee.
Starting point is 00:06:00 I know a lot of people for their brunch, it's all about the bottomless mimosas or samosas or s'mores or whatever you want to be bottomless. And you know I it's not like I don't see the merits of boozy brunch. I get it. But I don't know. There's something really nice about the simplicity of just going hanging out having a good hearty wholesome meal and you know a cup or two of coffee. I'm a big coffee fan. I took me a long time to get into coffee. Here's our listener engagement, question of the week, a new segment I started two and a half years into my show. When did you start, like, seriously drinking coffee as part of your routine? That's an interesting one. the happiest part of your routine. That's an interesting one.
Starting point is 00:06:44 I'm trying to think, I never had coffee in high school. Like, I don't even know if I ever went to a place to drink coffee. I guess occasionally I'd go to a, there was a Starbucks kind of by the high school. And, but I don't think I ever even ordered anything, because even back then, 2010, 2011, whatever, like Starbucks prices were still relatively expensive.
Starting point is 00:07:12 Now they're out of control, but I don't, you know, my friends would go, you know, the two friends I had, but I don't think I ever really ordered anything from Starrbs. And then in college, I remember, I had 8.30 AM class Monday through Friday. I think my first two years of college, and I only had three years total.
Starting point is 00:07:32 So that's 66.7% for those of you scoring at home. And I remember going to the student center place to get some coffee occasionally. But I think it was more so I'd get the fancy lattes, whatever that are like 600 calories, and basically just milkshakes melted down. And then I think eventually, as I started to work more midnight shifts in college,
Starting point is 00:08:02 I remember going, there was another coffee shop on campus that had really bad coffee, but I would occasionally go there was another coffee shop on campus that had really bad coffee, but I would occasionally go there. Occasionally go to a gas station. There's a gas station on Fullerton, right across from where my office was. And you'd always go in there and it just looked like no one had been there in five years.
Starting point is 00:08:20 It's so interesting that it's this place right on the main strip of DePaul's campus that like never gets any action But would be perfect right it's got all the snacks you could ever want It's the same issue that that McDonald's had you know the one at Lincoln and Hallstead and Fullerton McDonald's prime location right across from the music school Five-minute walk from the center of campus, like you'd think that that place would just be huge. No, close down, not enough business.
Starting point is 00:08:51 I never understood that. I think it's because all the de Paul kids are at least the ones who live on campus, minus myself, are pretty rich and just go to that whole foods at Fullerton and Sheffield, the one that used to be Dominics. I mean, I've never really bought anything there,
Starting point is 00:09:07 except for the occasional five for fighting, whatever the Friday night tunes are. I'm 16 for a moment, caught in between 10 and 20, and I'm just dreaming, counting here, sub my life. What's that guys name, John and Dracic?
Starting point is 00:09:30 Something like that. Let's heap it up too. I don't know. If I were fighting was pretty big for, you know, a couple of years, 100 years, Superman, the riddle, chances, I could do this all day. But yeah, so I think I, you know,
Starting point is 00:09:57 back to the original point, I think I legitimately started having coffee as part of my routine. Probably when I started grad school, I think it, you know, up to that point, it was like, I'll have coffee here and there, but it's not like, all right, wake up, let's have coffee. That started to become a thing in grad school. And I really went from, because I would have,
Starting point is 00:10:23 my morning coffee and my thermos, In fact, I would double fist, excuse me, pack in my backpack when I go up to Northwestern up from Ropo. I have my thermos at coffee, which I still have that thermos. I only really used it in grad school, because I didn't really drink coffee before that. And all my jobs I've had since getting my masters, I've just made coffee at the office. I must have that thermos in my kitchen somewhere, I don't know. I don't even know where it is. I never, I haven't used it in four years. But I'd make coffee in the
Starting point is 00:11:01 thermos and I think I must have bought the coffee pot I have now, which is literally like 20 bucks off of Amazon. Very cheap, whatever. I must have had that in my first Rogers Park apartment back in 2016. And then my other one I would make smoothies. Kale smoothies every morning. You'd be like, kale, frozen fruit, milk, maybe, way, why, way, anchors away. There's a song parody for you. It could be all about protein shakes and all sorts of nutrients
Starting point is 00:11:40 and supplements anchors away. Something to stick a pin in. So I would, yeah, it's it sit at the visitor center getting paid 17 bucks an hour, killing it. We add, especially when you're in grad school, and I would drink my coffee, one sip of coffee, one sip of kale smoothie. You can never blend the kale enough to get it to the point where it was really that good, you know? That's kind of rough. But, you know, and then in addition to that, I was just telling this or just talking about this earlier
Starting point is 00:12:22 today. It's not even a story. It's just a lifestyle. But, you know, because I had grad school class money through Thursday from six to nine PM. So I'd finish working at five, I'd work from eight to five and then go to class from six to nine.
Starting point is 00:12:35 And I would make, in the coffee machine of the break room up at the Northwestern Visitor Center, I had coffee grounds, folders, which I don't know why. That's what I always had. And I haven't had folders since grad school, but I maintain that is the worst coffee of all time. Really bad, man. And I remember I would make that,
Starting point is 00:13:03 put it in my thermos, go to class, and every time I'd open up my thermos in class it would just smell awful and I felt really bad because people would comment on it. I'd be like, oh coffee smells like shit. Be like, yeah, folders. But it was it was the type of thing where it's like so bad, so painful that it keeps you going. You know, if I had good quality coffee from somewhere else, it would have put me right to sleep, could be so tasty.
Starting point is 00:13:28 But yeah, so I think when I was 21, 22 is when I started to have coffee as part of my routine and since then it's just been a thing for me. I like coffee. But yeah, Door County was very fun, going back to our original original point. Yesterday was the 4th of July. Wow, what a time to be alive. I think the weirdest, maybe weird is maybe not the right connotation, but just like the most unique 4 Fourth of July that I've ever lived through.
Starting point is 00:14:05 And a lot of this just pertains to, you know, where you're at in life and what you choose to do with your day and your through holiday festivities, but just under, you know, COVID quarantine, stay at home stuff like, you know, fireworks being canceled, a lot of tension between like residents of Chicago and Chicago leadership, like beaches are closed, but they're not really enforcing it.
Starting point is 00:14:36 And then some days they're trying really hard to enforce it. I don't know, the whole thing is kind of a shit show. But all of that is to say is, I didn't, you know, we didn't do anything, yes, I mean, there was a house party going on, but, you know, I got there, like, 4 p.m., 3 30 p.m., did not leave the house after that. And really didn't hear a bunch of fireworks, either. I know they were out there, but, you know.
Starting point is 00:15:05 I need to do any fireworks. I'm sober still, so, you know, just nothing. I was telling my family this morning, if it, you know, it was just a normal Saturday, and you hadn't told me it was the fourth of July, I would have no idea. I mean, I was riding the bus down and you'd see some people wearing patriotic stuff,
Starting point is 00:15:31 tank tops, I suppose. But otherwise, I just feel like there weren't any real festivities. It's not like this doesn't make sense, right? It all makes sense, I'm just commenting on it. But, yeah, I ran a half marathon yesterday morning. I had something I wanted to say, which is why I brought it up. Shoot.
Starting point is 00:15:54 I forgot. What do you want from me? What do you want from me? What do you want from me? Yeah, I'm a fool. Thanks a lot from me. See, do it perfectly. Adam Lambert.
Starting point is 00:16:13 He's still doing his thing with Queen. Also, is it still Adam Lambert and Queen or Queen and Adam Lambert? Or is it just Queen? And Adam Lambert is the or Queen and Adam Lambert or is it just Queen and Adam Lambert is you know the singer of Queen now? I don't know. Someone's gonna have to get on that. Fourth of July memories. There are a couple stories I could tell. One it was alcohol poisoning and it wasn't very fun.
Starting point is 00:16:42 But the one that I always think back to, less of like a specific Fourth of July memory, but kind of surrounding that holiday and relevant to the entire sort of summer, which was the summer after I graduated high school. I got a gig, I was pretty plugged into the rockford area, Northern Illinois, Southern Wisconsin, Piano or industry, music industry, symphony orchestra, music scene, whatever you want to call it. We're going blurry here on the camera. Let me try to fix this.
Starting point is 00:17:20 I don't know what happened. There, that's better. So I got a gig to be the summer pianist for the Ballot Jamesville Symphony Orchestra. Wow, what a place. Which I don't think it's called that anymore. It's called like the Rock River Community Orchestra or something. Less exciting.
Starting point is 00:17:41 It's a big, big BJSO fan. That's what we'd call it in the, you know, back in the day. BJSO tight. I don't remember like who I got the gig from, but I got it. So, our first thing on the summer program was a 4th of July slash patriotic themed concert. And so it's a bunch of patriotic tunes, Lincoln portrait by Copeland, Star Distribes Forever, some sort of like military march medley, triple M, at least to call it back in the day. And so I remember getting the gig like really late. It was probably late June, like a week before the 4th of July. So I didn't really have a bunch of time to rehearse, but it was okay, because the music was easy.
Starting point is 00:18:41 But I had to go to one or two rehearsals up in Boloitte, up at Boloitte College. And I remember just it being stressful because I didn't have a smartphone back then. Right now it's easy. Just plug in the address to your map on your phone. You follow your phone, you go, you're there. Back in the day, back in 2013, is that when I graduated high school? Yeah, 2013, you know, you look at it on the computer before and you know, hope you make it.
Starting point is 00:19:13 I remember being really stressful, I was like, not late to a rehearsal, but I'm just, I'm the type of person that likes to be there, 15 minutes early, I got there like right as we were starting. You know, it's a huge group of people I've never met before, mostly middle age to older age people. Group of people I've never played with before, I don't know anyone in the orchestra,
Starting point is 00:19:34 whatever, it's kind of stressful. So I have a rehearsal, yada yada yada, but the reason I tell this story is the point is, we actually played two concerts, one on the third, one on the fourth. The third was in Jamesville, and the fourth was in Boehl, because it's the Boehl, Jamesville Symphony Orchestra. I think my parents came to the actual fourth of July one in Boehl, supporting local arts. Thank you, mom and dad.
Starting point is 00:19:56 But on the third, when we played in Jamesville, if anyone knows the Lincoln portrait piece by Copeland, it's a kind of a symphonic poem, but it has a narrator part. And oftentimes they'll get, you know, semi-famous people to do the narration. Well, we were in Jamesville. So guests who came to do our narration and you can find this video on YouTube. In fact, if we get this, this, you know, video cast up on YouTube, I'll try to just link it in the description. Paul Ryan himself, Speaker of the House, came down to Jamesville on July 3rd and did the Lincoln portrait for us.
Starting point is 00:20:37 So you can see there's a fun video on YouTube of us doing Lincoln portrait. He's doing the narration. He's on one side of the stage. I'm sitting there at the piano on the other side of the stage. Hair is just bleached from swim season, just killing it. Yeah, good times. I never, I didn't get to actually talk to him, but, you know, what a little twerp. I, you know, I wanted to share P90X secrets.
Starting point is 00:21:06 I think that would have been cool. But we can't all get ripped like the speaker out. Anyways, our next concert was at, it's supposed to be at the Rock County Fair. Rock County, Southern Wisconsin. And I remember it was like a movie theme something. I don't think it was explicitly John Williams seemed. I think it was just classic movies in general.
Starting point is 00:21:39 You know, we're talking Star Wars. I mean, everything I can think of is John Williams. So maybe it was John Williams, but it was like Star Wars. I mean, everything I can think of is John Williams. So maybe it was John Williams. But it was like Star Wars. Well, that's not true. There are lots of other ones. I don't remember what they were, but they weren't John Williams.
Starting point is 00:21:53 But the big one was Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, which if you know the symphonic suite for that, it opens with headwigs theme, I think is what it's called, which has like a big Not marimba, but something another part, clavinova. That's not what it is Celeste Celeste C-E-L-E-S-T-A Celeste Celeste. I don't know how do you say it? Just embarrassing as a music major, but it's a painful memory for me.
Starting point is 00:22:29 It's a part that you normally have that specific instrument in an orchestra, but us being the local community low budget orchestra, I think I made like 20 bucks a pop or something like that. I mean, that's how low budget this thing was. I was supposed to play it on the keyboard, just change the press and buttons, change the voice. I don't think they gave me the score
Starting point is 00:22:52 till days before, like a week, a week and a half max, before we were supposed to play at the Rock County Fair. And I remember getting this music and being like, I mean, it's a really hard piece. And you're talking to 18 year olds, good, solid pianists, but you know, I mean, this is really hard. It's the thing that goes, but, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, that main theme is easy, but then it goes into this crazy arpeggio thing With a whole lot of accidental and it's like you give me a month to do it. I'll work it out, but
Starting point is 00:23:34 7 to 9 days No, I'm not gonna be able to do that. So I remember you know getting in in emailing the you know music director and be like Hey, we need to need to cut this piece or do it some way different because they're not going to pull us off. Because you only gave me X-Money days. And I think literally the next day, I should try to go back into my email and see if I still have this. I got an email from him and it's like, I don't remember exactly what he said,
Starting point is 00:24:05 but you're fired basically, which was very kind of them. And I had to do this stupid thing where I drove to this hotel in Rockford to drop off the music and then he was gonna pick it up later. He wouldn't just meet me wherever to pick it up. I don't know. So I got fired from the Bolognese Wilson for New Yorker's show after two performances with them, two fourth of July performances with them. And the irony of the entire situation is they were not able to find a pianist to play their rock county fair set so they did not perform the Harry Potter
Starting point is 00:24:47 piece. Happy 4th of July. And Paul Ryan, if you're listening, what you've been doing, you know, he's on like faculty at Notre Dame or something. Like, what does he do? Is he drive to South Bend from Jamesville like twice a week? That seems like a long-ish drive. What is that?
Starting point is 00:25:12 Four or five hours? Yeah, it's, let's read some ads here. See what's going on in our world. You guys are lucky for the video cast. I put on a shirt. Normally, 1.30 p.mm. the middle of a day in July The chances of me wearing a shirt if I'm not on a zoom meeting for work literally less than 10% And you might be asking why and I'll tell you why not why would I want a shirt on?
Starting point is 00:25:44 It's just an extra thing to sweat through and I'll tell you why not. Why would I want a shirt on? It's just an extra thing to sweat through. But for you guys, I thought you'd appreciate the special treat, yikes, my phone almost fell off the coffee table. If you're watching this video cast, I apologize for my hair. I got back from Rachel's apartment literally about 45 minutes before I started recording. I mean grocery shopping. I've not had time to shower yet. In fact, after this ends, I'm going to go go for a little walk and then come back shower, watch Brickyard. Which oh man, Jimmy Johnson tied for the most NASCAR championships of all time
Starting point is 00:26:27 Has COVID-19 would you believe that? It's ridiculous Him and his wife tested positive so he's out of the race, which is a damn shame because brickyard is super entertaining So I'm gonna watch it. It doesn't start for another 90 minutes, which is so late, especially because Indy is an hour ahead. I don't know, do I root for all Gayer? Drive in the 48, or do I root for like my second favorite driver? I don't even know who it is. Bubble Wallace maybe. Bowman. TBD. Got no one good to root for ever since Biffle left the CUP series.
Starting point is 00:27:07 Okay, let's read our ads here. Home Pride Oregon, oh here we go, this will be fun. Are you tired of selling your house for less than a quarter of what it's worth all because you can't find a reliable home inspector in time? Well Oregon listeners, I got good news for you.

Something like that.
Starting point is 00:28:06 Don't hold me to that home pride organ inspection. Perfection. What did I say? 100% off? The other than the sun, right? I can't stop on this video cast. So I got the lens right here, and then I got the screen right here, and I'm so bad at the camera.
Starting point is 00:28:28 I'm always looking at the video because I'm like that. Narcissist, is that his name? The Greek guy. Looked at himself in the lake for too long or something like that. I don't remember how that works. Narcilla, pan, pan flute.
Starting point is 00:28:51 I don't know. I can't remember all this stuff. Narcissists. Is that his name? N-A-R-C-I-S-S-U-S. Let's go to our research machine here. In case you're wondering, Narcissus. Narcissus and echo.
Starting point is 00:29:16 Narcissus, Greek mythology. There it is. Hey, old man still got some tricks, huh? In Greek mythology, Narcissus was a hunter from Thessapé in Biosia, whatever English please, who is known for his beauty. Oh, sounds. Checking off all the boxes so far, according to Tess Tiziki-Sos, he was a Lakonean hunter who loved everything beautiful. Check. Narcissist was proud in that he disdained those who loved him. That's not a check. Causing some to take their own lives to prove their devotion to striking beauty.
Starting point is 00:29:52 Alright, well, get a hold of yourself. Narcissist is the origin of the term Narcissism, a fixation with oneself and one's physical appearance of public perception. The more you know, baa bap bap bap bap. She get Lavar Burton to come on this show and he could read Uncle Tom's Cabin or something. It doesn't have to be that book. Something else.
Starting point is 00:30:17 I wanna give a shout out to the Samson Q2U series. It's got crisp clean audio quality. It sounds good on minute one. It sounds good on minute 35. You know it, you love it, you gotta have it. From Genesis to Exodus, Exodus, not even gonna spell it. Lebedeek has numbers in Deuteronomy when God speaks. He uses a Samsung. He uses a Samsung. All right. Last one here.
Starting point is 00:30:45 I had a friend. We'll call her A-Train, because her name starts with an A. In case you didn't know how I made that connection. A-Train was telling me about her haircut. She got earlier this week in some sort of carousine treatment in her hair too, I don't know how all that stuff works.
Starting point is 00:31:08 But she's telling me that it sunk her or set her back like $300 or like $250 or something like that, which is just silly because as everyone knows, cuts by Qd charges a flat rate of $15, we'll do do you know bangs carousine treatments, bull cuts, other cuts, we got steak knives, we got trimmer, we got razors, we got coasters,
Starting point is 00:31:40 I got multi vitamins here, literally spot treatment, okay? Rodgers Park Edition. Why pay $250 for pricey kerosene treatments when you could get a cut rate, flat rate, cuts by Q for $15, okay? Summer sale, while supplies last, get your cut. Maybe we cut by Q needs a new slogan.
Starting point is 00:32:10 We got a song, but maybe we need a slogan. Let's stick a pin in that. Let's read the ad here. Bob and weave, we all know the hairstyle, we all love it, but how many Chicago-based independent barbers, that's right, independent, can actually give it to you the way you deserve and all for only $15 what a steal.
Starting point is 00:32:27 Enter Cuts by Q, it's like Enter Sam and, but different. Cuts by Q has been independently owned and operated since 1995 and is probably one of the better barbershop operations serving Chicago, Cook County, Northwest Indiana and the greater Chicago land area. From BIs to Bangs, Fowl Rock four walks to flat tops and everything in between, you got to call cuts by Q8152987200 or you can email cuts by Q at Yahoo.com.
Starting point is 00:32:54 Again, that's cuts QU TZ by Q at Yahoo.com. All right, sing with us on the live stream. Oh, and you need a fresh dew, something snappy and new, just call the experts at cuts by... Excuse me. Q. All right, welcome to the second half of our program today.
Starting point is 00:33:23 It's gonna be a very short half because I covered all the things I wanted to talk about on the first half. You might be thinking, well, you hardly said anything in the first half. That's right. I hope everyone enjoyed last week's trivia spectacular. I thought it was kind of fun. I play a lot of trivia and I think most
Starting point is 00:33:47 people know that. And I've been considering trying to run my own game, not like a weekly thing, just a one-hit wonder, at some point. And I still think I might, I'd have to, you know, writing, writing the quiz is not the hard part. It's the, you know, figuring out how you want to do everything technologically. T-E-C-H-N-O-L-I-G-A-C-A-L-L-Y, Technicologically. What is that? 18-syllable word? Multithilabic. I might do it. But I had a fun time last week with the trivia game. And if anyone has any questions, comments, complaints
Starting point is 00:34:41 about any of the answers. Particularly the South Paulo one, or Tokyo. If you wanted to dispute any of that, email us at beantownpodcastyahoo.com. And it's beantownbeantownpodcastatyahoo.com. I didn't create that question to try to trick you with, you know, what are you counting as a city population? The trick, the trickery of it was, you know, the fact that Eastern and Northern are going to be the same and Western and Southern are going to be the same. That was a trick aspect. I know if you, you know,
Starting point is 00:35:18 you Google the populations of like Tokyo versus Shanghai or something or Seoul, you'll get varying answers. I just feel, and you, again, dispute this if you want, I feel like it's generally widely considered, you know, standard knowledge that Tokyo is the most populist city in the world. But depending on how you measure things, it might not be the case. TBD. Yeah, I don't know. Fourth of July, hanging out. Nothing too much going on, man. Gonna go out for a walk. Get a little sun. I went to the lake on Friday, not to beach my injuice. I'm a good public citizen, just some green space by the lake, and got some sun.
Starting point is 00:36:17 Got a little backburn going, which was surprising, because I think I know what happened. I did a full lather, L-A-T-H-E-R of sunscreen, front back, up down tangentially, soca-toil, Lee, whatever. All the angles, you know what I'm saying. And my chest didn't get really burned at all. My back did. So I was trying to figure out what happened because I spent more time on my back with my chest facing the sun than I did flipped around. I think what happened, I think I have a low quality sunscreen. And what happened was when I went to lie out in the sun on my blanket, my arch mirror academy blanket out there in Wilmington, Delaware, I think I was sweating, you know, my
Starting point is 00:37:15 buns off, lying on my back, because I'm staring right at the sun. I think what happened was I sweated, swat, I swat a bunch, and probably the sunscreen kind of came off. So that when I turned over, like you would do to burgers on Engril, I think my back was particularly exposed. What I don't understand here, this makes no sense. I've got, imagine you throw in a back back, so you know where the straps are kind of on your chest,
Starting point is 00:37:50 just to the outside of your kind of pecks there. I have sunburned like where those straps are, which doesn't make any sense. I mean, I was walking around my back back. When I first took off my back back when I got home, I looked in the mirror and I saw that it was particularly red where the straps are. And I was like, well, it's just from walking
Starting point is 00:38:11 with my backpack for the last 20 minutes. But then I woke up yesterday morning and the redness was still there in that very specific pattern. I don't understand. My back-back straps are somehow absorbing the sunlight in, you know, like a prism, hyper-focusing the light onto those pores or something. I don't know, I'm not the dermatologist here. Any dermatologist out there, email us, I already gave you the email like four minutes ago, pay attention, otherwise.
Starting point is 00:38:46 That's what I got for you. We are going to try a 0-dark 30 mission here. When I tried it right before we started the external SD reader worth like a charm, we're going to try that again. I think the most frustrating part of the process for me, and I understand why it does this, whatever, I don't care, is that the SD card splits up your MP4 files into a bunch of different little ones. It's hard to keep track.
Starting point is 00:39:20 Are they in the right order? I don't know. There's no way to mark it. They're each like five minutes long. So again, we're not doing any audio syncing because I trust that the audio you're getting from my Lumix G3X series, whatever that I bought from friend of the podcast Matt F either a couple months ago. I think it's going to be just fine, okay? And if you're if if you, if you
Starting point is 00:39:45 made it 39 minutes and 40 seconds into this YouTube stream and you're like, this audio is just not kind of for me, I'm going to start over. Go check us out. Soundcloud Play or FM, not cast box yet. Still working on that. Spotify, Stitcher, Apple Podcast, Google Play, we're on the app store and we're streaming live across all bean town networks, okay? You can find the high crisp clear audio quality there, okay? That's what I have for you.
