Hello and welcome to Punta Vista, episode 187. I am here at the National Air and Space Museum in Washington, D.C., marveling at this testament to the vision and ingenuity mankind displayed in its quest to lift itself from the surface of the earth. With me is Theo, who has spent too much time imagining having nothing but a thin wall between you and the vacuum of space, and is now quietly vomiting inside Skylab B. Hey, how are you? I just saw that video of the, um, of the airplane with the engine on fire, midair. Is that, how are that, the plane, the part of it fell in front of that person's, um, um, um, um, um, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, the, th, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, the, the, the, the, the, um, um, um, um, um, and, and, the, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, and, um, um, and, and, and, and, um, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, uh, and, and, the, the, the, the, th.uh, th.uh, to.uh, to. to. to. to. to. th. to. th. th. th. the. the, uh, the, to find out whether that was the same one. Was that the same plane where the part of it fell in front of that person's house?

Were they Donny Darkoed that person's house? I don't know. Twitter seems to want to link the two events, but I'm not even sure that the thing on fire those things where you see something and someone has posted it, but the wording makes it sound like maybe it's their video, but you realize there's no definite link to say that there is? No, well she said, oh my parents are on this flight and for things on fire, everyone's okay though and then like one post later, she's like, oh Itake no credit for this video, you know? Yeah. So...

You gotta get your clout, you gotta get your clout. I thought that there's a guy who's been getting millions of shares on this post have been like incredible footage from the surface of Mars with audio. And it's from like, it's not from Perseverance at all, it's from two years ago. What's it two years ago? I think think th think th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th thi thi thi thi thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, took thiolioliol-I thi, thiolioliol-a' tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, th. I th. I th. I th. I's th. th. I's th. I's th. th. I's th. I's th. I's th. I's th. I's th. I's th. I's th. I's tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, thoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. So, two years ago? I think it's from curiosity. And like the sound is some composite thing, not from microphones, but from the vibration of it or whatever. But none of his wording says this is from perseverance. He just posted it on like the day that it landed.

So everyone's like... It's genius. It's a cool grift where you get no money from it whatsoever And all you do is like pretend that something is important on you it like it's so bizarre. It's like It's like coming to like what is your dad do for work? Day and my dad's a marine? He has 97 medals of honor. Who is it for? The call of duty games are based on my dad's a marine he has 97 medals of honor Who is it for the call of duty games are actually based on my dad who is immortal Yeah, it's a weird one and like oftentimes it's not as if they are

Sort of using that The followers or whatever they get from it for anything like the dude that posted the perseverance video. It's got like 15, thousand followers or whatever. the thousthe followers or whatever they get from it for anything? Like the dude that posted the Perseverid's video, he's got like 15,000 followers or whatever. One of those bio is where it's just, it's nothing. It's lots of words being like communications and strategy for blah blah blah. And you're like, well, you don't really do anything, do you? Fluent in sarcasmus. I'm fucking bet he is. But then like it's not like they're posting about other stuff for then using those files to boost that it's all that sort of thing. I think they're

just watching that number go up and being like well I'm rock hard right. Are you still getting that endorphin hit though if it's not yours? It's like stealing tweets. It's like are you really getting all that hit you know? That pure rush of adrenaline when you get strangers. Someone likes your tweet? That's all I have anymore. If you are someone who habitually steals content for cloud on the internet, do you still get off on it? Let us know. We are not alone here at the National Air and Space Museum, also with us, having just one of the days many full-body no-touch orgasms,

it's Lucy. It was looking at a Concord. Okay, all right, I see. Because you like planes. Yeah, no I got it. I don't like the Concord. too pointy. I do like the Concord. I don't know if it gets me off, but you know it's a nice plane. Had a little walk-through one in the aviation museum in Seattle. What a dream. Wait, I went to that one. Did I get to walk through a Concord? I don't remember a Concord? Really? There's like a really good aviation museum. I think it's in Seattle, right? Yeah. Yeah, that's the one that's got... The old Air Force One? Yeah, it's a Concord in there. The thi thiiii's th th th th th th th th th th th th th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's thoooooooooooooooooooooo. th. th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I tho. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I thi. I's thi. I's a thi. I's a to. I'm toda. toda. toda. toda. toda. toda. toda. toda. I went. I went. I went. I went. all right. A Concord in there, you missed out. Maybe it wasn't there when you went. Maybe, or I've just completely erased the Concord from my mind. Because I hate the fucking stupid looking plane. Be pointier, you little bitch. Yeah, get his ass. They are cool though.

They're pretty cool. Did we just decide that supersonic flight's not worth it? We tried it, not for us. Too fast. Too fast. Too fast. It's a slow down a bit. Very classy. Okay, 500, 600, aerial knots.

Lucy. What, part of it? What's our speed, air, air knots. Like, the speed of sound. Knots, what do you measure that in? Lucy? What? Pardon? What's our speed? Air knots? Like, the speed of sound? What do we do? No, no, no, how do you measure how fast plane go?

I don't know. It's pretty fast. No, but like, what measurement are we using? What's our? I'm no pilot? I'm no plane scientist. My fucking God. So what? You're just like looking at them, you're not interested in any of the operational parts of them. You don't enjoy the stats? You don't have the little, those little like flick cards that you put in a big drawer that you can like pull out and go flick, click, click, click, click.

Let me just take them to the 747 super E, the 900 version. Is this how you picture my life? I mean a little. Yeah. I mean, it's not that excited. The only thing you talk to us about. Mostly just looking at like, we know the virtual reality on flight radar. You tell us no personal information whatsoever and then you'll occasionally, like yesterday, be like, oh my God, I'm so excited. Here is a blurry, distant video of a plane.

It was the Anton the ant the ant the ant the the the the the the was the Antonov 124 and it was very exciting and I was walking across the tarmac onto my plane and it just came into land and no one else was even looking at it. Yeah because it's I'm sorry no that was a that was going to be a mean reaction to that. You've seen it's a big plane. It's a huge cool plane. It's a huge cool plane. It's a huge cool to believe that it was the A and 255. Yes, it was difficult to see from the very blurry photo which I took having to lean over the person that was in the window seat and be like, I'm so sorry, but can I just take a picture of this plane outside? Did they ask any follow-up questions?

No, I'm just a plane freak, so don't mind me for a second. Don't mind me. Oh you might be a little confused let me explain. I'm a nasty little pervert. Yeah all right just because yeah okay let's move on. All right well yeah enough of this boring talk about planes. What anti-av geek sentiment in here? It's time for a little segment we like to call, plainly speaking. This is your captain speaking. Please return your seats for their upright positions as we are coming in hot on another edition of Plainly Speaking. This is a story from the website Australian aviation. New Zealand drone pilot convicted after collision with paraglider.

This can go two ways. This could be a story about a man flying a drone into a paraglider, or this could be a story about a man who flies drones for fun running his car into someone who paraglides for fun. Just in a parking lot, near the amateur airbase. It's actually the first one of those two things that is said. A New Zealand man has been convicted and fined after a crash-in-throne into a trainee paraglider in 2018. It's really one thing you didn't want to happen type areas. As a trainee, like, well at least there's nothing up here to run into. No sharks of the air. The drone and paraglider collided mid-air

at Creotahe Beach south of Auckland. According to court documents, the DJI Phantom 3 drone collided with the paraglider about 100 meters above the ground and became entangled into one of the paragliders brake lines making steering difficult. They don't have brake lines do they? Well it's just changing the shape of the wing to, I don't know, do shit. Luckily, the paraglider managed to land unhurt, however, was shaken by the incident. The man, a recreational drone pilot, was convicted at the Manukau, Manukau, no, I have no idea, district court District Court on Thursday and find $1,000 for operating a drone in a manner that caused unnecessary endangerment and failing to give way and keep clear of a manned

aircraft. He is the first person to be convicted in New Zealand for a crash between a drone and a manned aircraft. We're talking about a man on a parachute, right? No, like a paraglider, isn't paragliding where it's a wing like it's a fixed wing? Yeah it's like a big kite right? Yeah it's what paragliding is? I thought it was like where you go out over the over the ocean and you know you see the guys over the ocean and they've got the big parachute? Yeah is that a different thing? Oh no no I was thinking of a hang gliding. I was thinking of the... I was thinking of hang gliding. Not hang gliding. No, no, no, we're talking about those dudes, you see, and I guess it's got a seat? Does that count as a craft? Well, they're calling it a manned aircraft. So I guess so. Sometimes they got a little fan on them. That's cool. That's that. That is cool. That is cool. That is cool. That is cool. That is cool. That is cool. That is cool. That is cool. That is cool. That is cool. That. That is cool. that. th. th. the th. th. th. the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the the the th. th. th. the the the the th. the th. the the the th. th. the th. th. th. the the th. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. the the the. the th. I. I. I. I. th. I. I. I. I. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I the. I that. I the. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I agree on that. Dean Winter, the Deputy Chief Executive of Aviation Safety at the Civil Aviation Authority

of New Zealand, said it was extremely lucky that the paraglider was not killed or seriously injured in the crash. He added that he hopes Thursday's conviction of the drone pilot will encourage other drone users to rigorously follow CAA drone rules, which specifified the pilots must keep their drone with in sight and land immediately when manned aircraft nearby. All the drone owners just nodding yeah yeah ma'am yeah fucking absolutely. We're gonna read some boring book about rules. I'm absolutely gonna take off my VR goggles while I'm flying this thing around a kilometer away from me. The drone pilots conviction and fine followed a

judge alone trial where Judge Mina Warapuri found the man guilty of the laid charges. The drone pilot purchased his drone in 2016 reportedly told the court that he was not aware that Carriotah Beach was popular with paragliders. The man did admit that he saw a paraglider fly past him while he was at the beach. They argued that his actions of the day of the accident were without fault. I feel like like I was flying my drone and I saw a paraglider, I might be like, ooh, this could be a bad situation. What am I going to do?

Not fly my drone? Yeah. Maybe just like put your drone down. Go for a little dip. Come back in half an hour. Yeah. Judge Waripuris stated that the man should have immediately landed his drone when he became aware of the paragliders and appreciated that this drone might pose a hazard to the others in the air sharing the same air space. The judge also stated the man was not following CIA guidelines and was overly reliant on

tracking the drone via its screen rather than keeping the drone within his direct line of sight. So are you allowed to just fly a drone? Like can anyone just fly a drone? I think Australia has requirements about, I think there's like some sort of licensing thing for if you want to fly it in residential areas? Hmm. Does that sound right? Lucy? I have no idea about drones. This must be pretty high if he's hit a paraglider, right? Well, 100 meters up, which is insane, right? Yeah, that's a gross amount of meters to be up in the sky.

To be perfectly honest. So in Australia, a remote pilot, a remote pilot license, or repl allows you to fly remotely piloted aircraft or RPA for business or as part of your job in circumstances that needs specialist training. You must apply for a repel if you want to fly a drone larger than two kilos for commercial operations anything other than sport or recreation. So for fun you don't have a fun drone okay. And you can run it into as many paragliders as you like. I feel like I don't get the drone appeal. No. I do. Just flying it around? I guess so.

Wush! When I see the drone up in the sky, I get scared of heights when I'm flying drones. If I like fly drone up, like way up in the sky, and see it up there, I imagine that I'm up there, and that makes me scared of the heights that it's at. So, I don't like them. Just fly a plane. That sounds more fun to me. Do you guys think remote control cars are fun?

Not really. I mean, I had one that as a kid that could only turn left. I think that's all my parents could afford. The turning right option was twice an extra 50 bucks. I just why would you get a drone when you could like you play flight simulator? You reckon that's more fun. I feel like drones are perverted in their essence. They're I think so too yeah. No. They're doing perfect stuff stuff. They're the jet skis in their essence? Yes. Like what do you need to be up their their their their their their their their to to their to to to to to to to to to to to to to to too. too. their their t. t. t. t. t. train. train. train train. train. train. train. toy. toy. toy. toy. toy. toy. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. tue. tue. tue. tue. tue. tue. too. too. too. too. too. too. too. too. too. too. too. try. too. try. too of the sky. Yes. Like what do you need to be up there looking at stuff for? That's right. I think you can take cool ominous shots in 4K video with a drone these days.

And you never used to be able to do that. That was like the sign of a movie with a big budget was aerial shots because you had to hire a helicopter and a camera man who could work in there. And now, now it's accessible. Yeah, a hundred bucks on Kogan, you can take like footage that would have made someone shit their pants 50 years ago. That's good. I like that. Drones are for the working class, gotcha. Yep, that's what I'm saying. They're sort of a blue collar, egalitarian, really opening up society thing. All that's thi thian, thian, thian, thian, to to to to to to to to to to the the the the thian, thian, thian, thian, thian, thian, thian, thian, thian, thian, thian, thian, thian, thian, thirty thirty thirty, thirty, thirty, thia thia thia thia thia thia thia, thi, thi, thian, thian, thian, thian, thian, thian, thian, thian, thian, thian, thian, thian, thian, thian, thian, thian, thian, thi thi thi thi thi thi thi, thi, thi, thirty, thirty thirty thirty thirty thirty thirty thirty to thirty thirty thirty thirty thirty thirty thirty thirty thirty thirty thirty Lucy, clearly you didn't like that because you think drones are bad for whatever reason. That's fine, if you have a drone, enjoy your drone.

It's just perverted behavior, that's all I'm saying. Well, I'm going to need you to give me a ruling on whether this is a perverted behavior. This is another story from Australian aviation. Yeah, why don't you read out your little headline there? Uh, no, that's just for us. There's no reason for me to say that one out loud. Yeah, okay. Virgin hosts midair wedding on 737 8FE VA 841. Oh, did you get your marriage license? Huh? No? No, I'm not a celebrant. Why? Why do you ask?

Explain the joke, Theo? He saying I've never fucked? I liked it. Is that. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No, that that that that that that that that that that that that th. that th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi? thi? to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the the the the the the the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the the the the the. to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to, Theo. He's saying I've never fucked? I liked it. Is that what you're trying to do to me right now? Oh, Mr. I've had a baby so everyone knows I'm fucked. At least once. At least once successfully. We're not talking about the cheek kinds either. You say, oh, I've had sex because I've, you know, done this or done that and we don't have to go into what they are. I know know th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th at th at th at th at th at that that that that that that that that that that that that that to that that that that that that tho-a' th.

I've done this or done that and we don't have to go into what they are. I know what they are. No, I think we should. What do you reckon counts as a cheat version of having sex? I don't know. Can you... What are we getting out here? Really what you expound on this one? I liked the joke. Without the, you know, the whole deal involved, only

with some of the deal involved. Okay. Virgin Australia hosted its first midair wedding on board flight VA 841 traveling between Melbourne and Sydney on Thursday. Lane, Chiang and Luke Saddam walked down the aisle of the 737 F.E. VHYFX, which departed the Victorian capital at 12.32 p.m. and led to the New South Wales Capitol at 137 p.m. Come on. As a result of COVID restrictions, the happy couple wore masks and didn't kiss until they disemparked the aircraft in Sydney.

Okay, all right. Sadda from Praran and Melbourne's, I don't know how you're saying that one again, no, in Melbourne's inner eastern suburbs said the couple were planning to marry on Valentine's Day and wanted an unconventional wedding. Our friends and family will probably think we're a bit crazy, but we know we're always up for an adventure, said the groom, we're pregnant. And while both originally from Adelaide, our families now live between the UK, America and Croatia.

After five years of dating, we wanted to elope, and thanks to Virgin Australia, we've done just that. Have you? You went to Sydney. Up in the air for a bit. Yeah, for about an hour, yeah, an hour and five minutes. Stylist. Now, I believe they're saying that she is a stylist, not that her first name is stylist. Gotcha. Mm-hmm. I think.

Stylist John 35 said, I'm 17 weeks pregnant. And we just decided we didn't want any fuss. And here we are marrying on board a flight in front of 150 complete I'm not a hassle. I'm just trying to enjoy my flight, got my headphones on. Yeah, and you've got to pretend like you're interested. Oh, that's nice for all this rice to throw. Get sucked into the ventilation systems, caused a catastrophic system failure. We've crashed into some guy's house. The truth is, I was a wedding planner for many years, and after organizing hundreds of weddings, I wanted something different for us. This is always th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th thoes thoes thus is always always thoes thus is always thus is always thus is always thoes to the to to to to to to to th. I thate. I the. I the. I thate. I to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm the. I'm the. I'm the. I'm the. I'm thea. thea. teatea. teateateatea. I'm teateateateateatea. I'm just just just to theatea. I'm the weddings, I wanted something different for us.

This is always what I had dreamed of, doing something random and completely out of the box. Our friends suggested I marry on a flight. Luke loves travel in planes. I couldn't think of a more perfect way for us to say, I do, and here we are. Everyone likes to travel. I fucking hate when people like oh I love traveling. You love having like thousands of dolls of disposable income to go on a holiday to somewhere

interesting? That's amazing. I'm very excited for you. You fuck. During the flight, the Virgin Cabin crew had, I don't know how they checked that. Had an all passengers of a butter-milk biscuit wedding favour in the shape of a love heart. And the pair were married by celebrity wedding celebrant, Toddy Goldsmith is. What are those words that you're saying? Celebrity, wedding ceilibre. How do we describe who Toddy

Goldsmith is? Why do you know who Toddy Goldsmith is? Like very vaguely, that's like, I feel like that's like a D-grade celebrity. I have never heard that name before a man-tired- She's like 90s famous. She has an Order of Australia, she's got to know how it is. We love to give the Order of Australia to people who sing. She's an Australian actress and singer, uh, acted in so proper as the young doctors starting out and prisoner. Also blue healers in the secret life of us all right so she's Australian. Oh she's an

Australian so she's Australian. Yeah. Like if you're an Australian actor you've done like the five shows that we have. Yeah that's right and then you get an order of Australia. What what? What? Goldsmith is the daughter of Melbourne restaurateur and nightclub owner Brian Goldsmith and British-born actress Rona Newton John. Her great-grandfather, the father of her grandmother Irene, was German Jewish physicist and Nobel Prize winner Max Bourne. Oh yeah. Olivia Newton John is her aunt, the sister of her mother.

Bass guitarist Brett Goldsmith is her elder brother and race car driver Emerson Newton John her half brother. This has been Toddy Goldsmith Corner. Who the fuck is Brett Goldsmith? I'm not going to get to that. I have no idea who any of these people are. Yeah. So I'll give you one more sentence here. She became engaged to James Mayo in January 2008. Oh yeah. That's like a parody character of James May from Top Gear, but he's covered in mayonnaise? Sure.

He's more white. That's Italian. Hmm. Hmm. Hmm. I can't really get a clear idea on what Brett Goldsmith did. Anyway, Lucy, how do you feel about that? This whole thing?

Yes. Like the idea of getting married on a plane, sure. That's a fun idea. Doing it on a Melbourne to Sydney flight, like you're getting, by the time you've reached cruising altitude, by the time the seatbelt sign is off, you've got like 20 minutes before you're commencing your descent. Like, really? It's a delightfully short flight. Like it's a surprise how short it is every time. It doesn't matter how many times you do it. And you're up in the air and you're down.

You're just like, well, you know, flights take a while, you take your seatbelt off. like you're done the flight is over. I mean Mr. Millions over here flying Virgin and getting snacks. Some of us are flying Tiger or not anymore. Some of us are flying Jetstar. I'm usually flying Jetstar and paying extra for my snacks but I don't know. This doesn't doesn't sound like fun. Also she's like Luke's into planes. She's just she's not into planes. This isn't planes. it doesn't sound like fun. Also, she's like, Luke's into planes. She's just, she's not into planes. This isn't like, like, this isn't like, yeah, but I mean, Luce, like you'd never go in for like a novelty wedding anyway, right?

That's just not your sort of thing. It's just not really my style. What you're getting at there, Ben. Getting married in Las Vegas in front of an Elvis Presley impersonator is the most pure and romantic thing that you can do so. I think I was, I mean, you know, obviously I support your choice to do whatever you want in your life. I was 100% on board of it until I saw the video from the part of the wedding where while the the Elvis celibrate, I'm not sure what you call him. So the name is Brendan. Sorry. While Brendan was singing was singing the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the theecece. th. th. thenen thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thioleauau. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. I was thi. I was thi. I was thuu. I was thuu. I was thu. I was thi. I was thi. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I was thi. I. I. I was thi. I was thi. I was thi. I was thi. I was thi. I was thi. thi. thi. th. th. th. th. th. thea. th. theau. th. th. theauu. thea. I was th what you call him. His name is Brendan. Sorry. While Brendan was singing, whatever song he was singing, he did a little pass the microphone over to you guys to sing a part of it bit.

I couldn't do that. I'd fuck it up and then I ruined the whole waiting. Yeah, look, you get what you pay for. What you say, you didn't get the best Elvis? No, it did. I did. I I I th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. to to to to to to to to to to toeeeeaa. thea. toea. thea. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. I did my research. Oh wow. It's a good Elvis. I mean he looked great. There's a lot of Elvis is there. You've got to choose wisely. But yeah I don't know about the plain wedding. It doesn't sound very glamorous. How do you choose your Elvis? Are they all in like a room? You come up a set of stairs and like now whichever Elvis you like the look of, you buy them a drink. You can have like a sit in a chat in a chat chat chat chat chat chat chat chat chat chat chat the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the t. the t. the the the th. the th. th. the the th. A th. th. their th. I their their their their their their their their Elvis. Elvis. Elvis. Elvis. Elvis. Elvis you're the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the you like the look of, you buy them a drink. You can have like a sit in a chat with your Elvis for a little while before.

Let's make sure it's a compatible Elvis. Now obviously getting married by Elvis was a dream of yours. Dreams, that's the segue that I'm doing. This is Omen's importance. You shall see hail fall from a clear sky and burn his fire upon the ground. You shall see darkness cover Egypt when the sun climbs high to noon. And you shall know that God is God and bow down to his will. Don't even need Andrew. Nah, fuck him. See what, that man, just while he's not on the show, not good at saying he wants to do something of a

morning and then doing it. No. This is two weeks in a row now. Blahie you shit together Andrew. He's never going to listen back to this. He's never going to listen. He's like, we can go in the morning, then we get up in the morning, it's like, oh, my hole's full. And we can do it as long as we do it early and you're like at 6.30 in the morning. Hey, I'm ready. No, no, hang on. Let's get that, let's get that, the. the time stamp, right.

D'u. I'm, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the. the. the. the. the. the the the the the the t t the tod. the the the the the the the the th the the the the the th the that when you sent it, after having gone to bed at like two, and I was like, oh shit, really? Oh no, and then I was like, wait, no, he's doing a little joke, and then I went back to sleep. Oh, you could just go back to sleep, could you? That sounds nice. Well, I mean, I am also caring for a life.

Whereas my, my baby's farts are very humorous. He did like a straight up adult fight last night. I got the timber of an adult's fart. Yeah, it's not just the volume, it is the tomber, it's the real air horn kind of fight last night. And then he grunted out of huge to... Good on him. Love that boy. Louis did a big shit like sort of on top of a bush last night. So like parts of it were on different levels of the bush.

He was trying to make it as difficult for me to collect it as he possibly could of. A real piece of work, pal. He's just looking at me and sucking himself off. It's disrespectful disrespectful. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It's the disrespect. It's the disrespect. It's just. It's just. It's just. It's just. It's just. It's just. It's just.

All right, this is a story from Cell Press, which I believe is some sort of media body that represents some journals. I don't really understand it, but anyway. I think it's the, I think it's the personal press of the dude from the cell. Oh, I thought it's the personal press of the dude from the cell oh I thought it was the personal press of the dude from Dragon Bullsy Cell yeah I got it was yeah real-time dialogue with the dreaming person is possible

so is this like you no thank you I mean you can talk to someone that's sleeping right oh like if they... Can I say weird shit? Yeah. Oh, Caitlin does that all the time. So like, wake up. Like, she's like, while she's awake? No, like, she will like, sit up and open her eyes and just start talking about,

and she like, super urgently it at stuff. Like one night she just like sat up, bold upright and I was still browsing my stories. And she like points to the top of the air conditioner and goes, the pot plant, the pot plant. And she's like urging me towards this, this pop plan up there. I'm like, what? What? The pot plant? I'm like, oh, okay, you've fucking lost it. And just pat her back? to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the to the the the the the the the the the the the the the, the the the the, the their, their, their, their, their, the their, the pot plant. I'm like, oh, okay, you've fucking lost it and just pat her back to sleep like a baby. And she's, mmm, it settles back. One night when we had the bass in it next to the bed, she woke up and then scooped up Finn in both of her arms. Ah, Finn, Finn!

Just like offering me this child. Is Caitlin okay? Yeah, yeah, she's fine. Dreams take us to what feels like a different reality. That's the rime of exactly the same as we think out the other episode. Filling up the word limit type sentence. They also happen while we're fast asleep. There we go, okay.

Correct? So you might not expect the person in the midst of a vivid dream would be able to perceive questions and provide answers to them. But a new study report in the journal Current Biology on February 18th shows that, in fact, they can. We found that individuals in riiiiiiiiiiiiii, in in in in, they can. We found that individuals in R.M. Sleep can interact with an experimenter and engage in real-time communication, said senior author Ken Pala of Northwestern University. We also showed that dreamers are capable of comprehending questions, engaging in working memory operations and producing answers.

Most people might predict that this would not be possible that people would either wake up when asked a question or fail to answer, and certainly not comprehend a question without misconstruing it. While dreams are a common experience, scientists still haven't adequately explained them. Relying on a person's recounting of dreams is also fraught with distortions and forgotten details, so Paler and colleagues decided to attempt communication with people during lucid dreams. Theo, you have a fuck around with lucid dreaming? God, no, fuck, I don't need that in my life. You just seem like the sort of computery type of guy

who would have tried it at some point in his life. No. Okay, to be perfectly honest, it just sounds like way too much effort. It does, doesn't it? Every time I look to them like, I love sleeping. Can you force Can them, them, th force force force to force to force to force to force th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, force them to, like I've had them. I've never like forced one to happen. Yeah, people do, supposedly. They claim to. Still seems fake to me. I don't really understand it. If you do lucid dreaming, shut up, nerd. Our experimental goal is akin to finding a way to talk with an astronaut who is on another world. But in this case, the world is entirely fabricated on the basis of memory stored in the brain.

What a wonderful simile. The researchers right, they realized finding a means to communicate could open the door in future investigations to learn more about dreams, memory and how memory storage depends on sleep, the researchers studied 36 people who aimed to have a lucid dream in which a person is aware they're dreaming. The paper is unusual in that it includes four independently conducted experiments using different approaches to achieve a similar goal. In addition to the group at Northwestern University University in the U.S., one group

conducted studies at the Sorbonne University in France, one at Osnabrack University in Germany and one at Radbud University Medical Center in the Netherlands. Wonderful. Imagine a bunch of aggressive Dutch voices yelling at you in your dreams. Well, that sounds terrible. No. I'm sleeping.

Let me alone. Get out of here, Lang Nick. May I enter your dreams? He can peep everywhere, including inside your own mind. We put the results together because we felt that the combination of four different labs using different approaches, most convincingly attest to the reality of this phenomenon of two-way communication. Says Karen Conquilly, a PhD student at Northwestern University and first author of the paper. In this way, we see that different means can be used to communicate. One of the individuals who readily succeeded with two-way communication had narcolepsy and frequent lucid dreams.

Among the others, some had lots of experience in lucid dreaming and others did not. Overall, the researchers found that it was possible for people while dreaming to follow instructions, do simple math, answer yes or no questions, or tell the difference between different sensory stimuli. They could respond using eye movements or by contracting facial muscles. The researchers refer to it as interactive dreaming. This sounds horrible. Hey, I know you're sleeping there. I know you're having that nice little dream. Why don't you do some maths for me and then just contort your face a bunch to let me know

that you've finished. Hey, I'm gonna pour water on you that's either freezing cold or boiling hot. Move your eyes to the right if it's scalded. Conquely says that further studies of dreaming could use these same methods to assess cognitive abilities during dreams versus awake. They could also help verify the accuracy of post-awakening dream reports. Outside of the laboratory, the methods could be used to help people in various ways, such as solving problems during sleep or offering nightmare sufferers novel ways to cope. Follow-up experiments run by members of the four research teams aim to learn more about connections between sleep and memory processing and about how dreams may

shed light on this memory processing. I don't like to think about dreams. No dreams are private. I don't like knowing anything about all this. It's all fucked up. Right? This is like the one thing that we could maybe just leave inside the skull and never really deal with. I think so. I read something that said that like something like 60% or more of your dreams are negative. You just don't remember them. Oh. Like you're just having mostly bad dreams online. It's the way that your brain is processing memories and feelings and stuff. I don't remember having good dreams. I have only bad dreams. Yeah. I had a flying dream once. I was like 10 years ago. I like put my put my arms out and I lifted off the ground and like zoomed over a tropical island

and it was fucking incredible and I woke up ready to do anything at all and then I fell asleep again because it was like 3 a.m. I went back to dreaming about having my nude dick out in a new exam. Yeah, I spent probably the first 20 minutes of my day trying to shake off the bad vibes of the dream that I just had been like, no, I'm not actually drowning inside a World War II battleship. It is 2021 and I have to go to work. It's good that our brains do this to us. It's very bad. I, uh, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I th. I thi, I thi, I thi, I thi, I th. I th. I th, I th, I th. I th. I th. I th. I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I'm, I'm, I'm thi. I'm thi. I'm thi. I'm thi. I'm thi. I'm thi. I'm thi. I'm thi. I'm th. I'm th. I'm to go to work. It's good, it's good that our brains do this to us. It's very bad. I, uh, yeah.

Finally we could get rid of them. Get rid of them, I say, who needs them? Apart from the fun ones. I think the kind of dream, yeah, apart from us. We use it for like memory processing. We die if we don't have to have the, the, the, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, the, to, to, the, the, to, to, the, th, th, th, th, th, th want to get the drill thing from pie done to me so I don't have to worry about it anymore and if it hits some other stuff on the way in there, so be it. I want to use the dream machine from that one Bond

movie with the Madonna song. The dream machine. Haven't seen it. The guy gets really mad because instead of sleeping he uses the dream machine to make him crazy. Tomorrow never begins, tomorrow never dies. Yep, those are, they're all James Bond movies. That much is true. I think it's dying another day. So this is the thing from the present. How about something from the past that's happening in the present? This is a story from Reuters or as we

pronounce it over here in Australia, Routers. That's what we should have bloody called this podcast tomorrow right guys. Because we all have have sex. Yeah and have had sex before. Yep. Black food. It could have been horse shoe beery. No that that doesn't make sense. No I understand what the party is. No need to revisit that.

I don't know why anyone would laugh at that or suggest that. At a vulnerable moment in a group chat with a bunch of new friends. Oh.

We're blowing about it years toe. the ferited ferret cloned from the cells of another that lived more than 30 years ago. Ooh. Scientists have successfully cloned an endangered black-footed ferret using frozen cells from a long-dead wild animal. The first time any native endangered species has been cloned in the United States. Imagine being the person that just kept that frozen ferret in your freezer for... One day. One day, they're gonna... Someone's gonna have a use for this. Someone...

But they're just like knocking door to door, being like, do you by any chance have a black-footed ferret in your freezer? It needs to be from the 70s. Yeah, and your freezer must have not died at any point between then and now. The power went out at one point so it's a little weird in there but I think the genetic material still intact. Blackfoot recovery efforts aimed at increased genetic diversity and disease resistance to the bold step forward on December 10th with the birth

of Elizabeth Anne. That's a strange name. Are they naming a ferret after the Queen? Maybe. Maybe. Maybe. This could be some sort of satire that I don't fully understand. Dear little weasel? All the British listeners are just chuckling to them. So it's quite droll. With the birth of Elizabeth Anne created from the cells of Willa, a black-footed ferret

to live more than 30 years ago, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service said. That ferret is still Willer. Yeah, that's the same ferret. That's the same ferret. It's a clone. A clone. that's rude. .

. . . . If you take one cell. I think a ferret of Theseus situation would be maybe if you chopped off a ferret's hand, replaced it with a cyborg hand, and then kept doing that until you had a sort of ferret and mecca ferret situation. I mean we could do that too. We have the technology. We do have the technology. Although this research is preliminary, it is the first cloning of a native endangered species North America and it provides a promising tool for continued efforts to conserve the black-footed ferret, said Noreen Walsh, director of the service's mountain prairie region.

How is this only preliminary? What happened to Elizabeth Anne? Oh, they were like, oh, she's alive, they'd throw her in the bed. Did Elizabeth Anne like just instantly do the thing from the end of Akira? No, I see him Elizabeth said the thing from Robocop 2 where it tore off its own face and just the skull was screaming and then it disappeared. Fuck that sounds good. I haven't seen it so. Oh, it's not good. But that scene very good. Maybe you'll just look up that scene.

Is that Robocop 3? Anyway. There is footage of this little. I I I I I th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th.

There is footage of this little ferret, so I assume she's still alive. Wow, that's what they want you to think. I'm just very cute. The species, North America's only native ferret, who once thought to be extinct, but were bought back from nearly van and forever after a Wyoming rancher discovered a small population in 1981. That's that.. that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that's that's that's that that that that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's th. Well th. Well th. Well that's th. Well th. Well th. Well th. Well th. Well that's th. Well th. Well th. Well that's th. Well th. Well. Well. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the is the is theeean theean thean thean theeean theeanneneneneneneneneed is theeeeee is the That's the dream. Hey, is these rats important? They were long and smart. Something weird about these squirrels. You guys better come check them out. They were captured to begin a captive breeding program to recover the species, but only seven of the original wild animals bred and all living ferrets today are closely related.

That puts limitations on the species genetic diversity, creating challenges for resilience to changing environments and emerging disease threats. Elizabethan is a genetic copy of Willa, a black-footed ferret captured among the last wild individuals who died in the 1980s and has no living descendants, so is not one of the last wild individuals who died in the 1980s and has no living descendants, so is not one of the seven founders. That seems an ominous way of phrasing that. Very strange. America? The founders?

No, in like 300 years when there's a future society of only black-footed ferrets, they will be the blood of the founder. The Wyoming Game and Fish Department had the foresight to preserve her genes and sent tissue samples from Willa to San Diego Zoo's Global Frozen Zoo in 1988. So does that make ferret game or fish? I think they're game more than they're fish. I don't think you could have these. I do really like that this is like, we than their fish. I don't think you can help these. I do really like that this is like, we are wielding the awesome, terrifying power of God here. And these statements are coming from the Fish and Wildlife Service.

I feel like we haven't really spent enough time on the fact that we're still like cloning animals. I thought we did dolly. I thought we were done. Like I thought that was done. We're like we can do cloning. That's, we figured it out. We did dolly and then scientists grew a whole bunch of disgusting looking meat in like Petri dishes and then everyone ran out to write there. This is what scientists think that we'll be eating in 2060 or whatever. Or if you're the data nail. It's scientists. It's, scientists, scientists, scientists, scientists, scientists, scientists, scientists, scientists, scientists, scientists, scientists, scientists, scientists, scientists, scientists, scientists, scientists, scientists, scientists, th. th. th. the, the, th. th. the, th. th. th. they, th. th. the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. We're like, like, like, like, like, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, the the the they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. the the the the the the th. th. th. thi. thi. th. thi. if you're the day-to-nail, it's, scientists, we'll force you to eat this. Yeah, exactly. It will make you gay.

And now we're cloning ferrets. I think we may have gone too far. So the Dolly experiments, which is not a section in the girls magazine Dolly. Try shouting at your boyfriend's penis, very hard. Put a donut on it and yell at him. But it happened in the mid-90s, and that is still like the touchstone for like, yeah, I've not really heard about any other animal cloning, not that I'm reading a lot of animal cloning literature. Yeah, are they just not getting any traction in the media. Like, hey, we cloned a goat. It's not spicy enough. This is not. It's not. It's kind of human already. Just go for it. Go for it. Like, I'm sick of dancing around it.

Have to lose? Haven't we? No. We haven't done that. I feel like wasn't there a thing where someone gave birth to someone that was like genetically identical to themselves or it might be that I... I hope that didn't happen. I mean Finn looks exactly like me as a baby. Yeah, but he's got to get bigger soon and then the results will become. And he does, he does cry before shitting. And he does, he does cry before you spoke about it. But. that. And, and, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, haven, th, haven, haven't, th, haven't, haven Yeah, this is all, I feel like maybe I could have looked this up before you spoke about it, but I, this is one of those things where my understanding of where we're out with it technologically is based on when I used to read science magazines, which is when I was 12. Yeah, the world has moved on since 2002. Apparently, so I mean I guess it's good that you can clone endangered animals, it's nice. Yeah, you say that that, I that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that th thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi th th th th th th th, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe th th th th th th th th th th th th th thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi that that that that that that that that that that that that that that that, maybe that that, maybe, maybe, maybe, I guess it's good that you can clone endangered animals.

It's nice. Yeah, you say that now, until they're all 40 foot tall and rampaging through your town. Which they will be. Yeah. They're very cute though. Can you imagine the smell of a 40 foot ferret? Bad. Which includes biote and conservation group revive, revive and restore, private pet cloning company via gen pets and equine.

What the fuck? All right. All right. Step back there. Private pet cloning company. It's about to highlight that sentence of the Google search it. What? Google search it and Theo beat me to it. America's pet cloning experts, the worldwide leader in cloning the animals we love. What the fuck?

What going on? I don't want a genetically identical version of my pet that has different memories. That's not going to make me happy. That's fucked up.to make me happy. That's fucked up. The image on the, the, what do you call the, uh, is it champion image? What do you call that thing at the, the hero image? The hero image. They've got Chloe and Zoe. Chloe and Zoe, Chloe being a very handsome, lovely looking, uh, dog. And then Zoe, a puppy version of Chloe. Cloie's genetic tween. They look quite different though. And then Zoe, a puppy version of Chloe.

Clow's genetic twin. They look quite different, though. They don't look the same at all. They don't look the same. They've just been two dogs that look kind of the same. I think this is a scam. Meet the world's first, it cloned Prisovsky's horse. Oh, Prisolowski's horses are fucked up. Plotting a horse is no good. This guy, Prisilowski must have gotten,

uh, like, pranked or something. They must have gone out and gone, hey, we found this fucked up looking horse. It looks very, very stupid. They're extremely stupid. It's just a, a horse that looks like a moron. Imagine a horse. Ten times stupider. And you can tell just from

looking at it anyway we renamed it after you it's Priswelsky's horse. Go on Google Priswelsky's horse and then look at look at this stupid fucking horse. This company is called Viagen which is like some real Jurassic Park vague genetic company right off the bat. Their parent company is trans over. I guess, yep, they move eggs. They're transcending the boundaries of science, spirituality, human life. They are certainly violating God's wishes by doing this.

What is... What is... How long does it take GP to... A clone dog is simply a genetic to any of your dog? Born at a later date. Yep, that is correct. Okay, well that's... Okay, we sorted that out.

How long does it take your GP to clone a pet? Process in less than four weeks. What? The cloning process requires the same gestation process and nursing process as with any pet breeding technique? What the fuck? This is so upsetting. You're cloning it! I don't like this at all. I think feel like this is a scam. I'm looking at all the like client stories and they're all like my pet's about to die and we look forward to welcoming his clone. Wow. Okay, our Pet Express Pet Tissue banking, ETB, Pet Genetic Preservation, GP and Pet Cloning, the same thing? No, these are three separate services.

So we will offend God, we will spit in God's face, and then we will transcend the need for God. These are three separate services that we offer. I'm lost. I cannot get back on the rails of this show again. Okay, so like, I... I'm losing my mind here. They offered this for like horses and stuff, which kind of makes sense to me. If you're, I don't know, like a race horse or a competition horse breeder and you have like a fucking fantastic horse. Whatever. If you are a private citizen and your like beloved dog has just died, looking at the same dog again is not going to make you

feel better unless you are a psycho. No. It's like in fucking AI when she gets a robot child to replace her. Wait, no, it's not as a replacement. But that would be the same deal, right? Fucking like being like, being like, oh, my kid just died. He's a robot that looks like my kid. He's the same kid, and I feel no differently about this second child who has come to me, fire the way of a corporation. I just deeply hope this is a scam. And they're just, they just give you a dog that looks looks looks looks looks looks looks looks looks looks looks looks looks looks looks looks looks looks looks looks looks looks looks looks looks looks looks that looks that looks that looks that looks that looks that looks that looks that looks that looks that looks that looks that looks that looks that looks that looks that looks that looks that looks that looks that looks that looks a dog that looks kind of like your other dog. Oh. And what happens when animals are born with deformities or otherwise unhealthy?

I too am looking at this. Yeah. All forms of reproduction result in some unhealthy births. Regular health checks performed on animals to ensure the health and well-being. Okay. Oh my god, have you looked at what is the cost of dog cloning and cat cloning? Yeah, just clicked on that one just then. Holy fuck. Go on then. Dog cloning costs are $50,000 paid in two equal installments. Cat cloning costs are $35,000 paid in two equal installments. Well, by comparison, that's a fucking bargain.

Yeah, you've got to clone your cat then, come on. Oh. They call it, okay, so they, they say cloning is called Sematic Cell Nuclear Transfer. Now, I've seen enough sci-fi movies. I know what that means. That involves the power of the, of the atom. That, sorry, Andrews just asking, have I missed the podcast. Yeah atom that him I'm sorry Andrews just asking have I missed the podcast yeah but we've not missed him yeah it's mean that we love him all right I'm really derailed by this so I'm harnessing the power of nuclear energy and in relation to Soma, the song by

Smashing Pumpkins. Yeah, and also the horror game, where like faceless, nameless creatures kind of chase you around. And also the drug from Brave New World? Yeah, that's right. They're giving them the Brave new world, that lets your new dog fuck good. I got my dog, I got my dog cloned and he's a fucking jackhammer now. I am looking at the client's stories and I am thoroughly disturbed by Winky the cat who definitely looks like they

accidentally put a human brain in there. I'll copy this into the chat and this is of course an audio medium so still an audio medium and you want to see it and you're not in our group chat simply go to the website of Viagent pets. Look at their client stories and then look at Winky, the horrible cat with a human brain. How do you guys feel about Winky? Is that just the original Winky though? I feel like all of these client stories none of them have got their cloned pet yet. No. There are some great names in though.

There is a dog called Burlington. There is a dog in here called Joker von House Volkamputz. Okay. There sure is. There's a dog called Jack, but the photo is mostly of a human man. This is intriguing. And there's a dog in there that looks exactly like Louis. Buckshot. That is a bad name for a dog. They don't... Okay, so like, I haven't seen any of them have actually been cloned. Like, I loved my cat and then he died.

He got pancaked by a dump truck. Um, I found via a gym. Um, I loved my cat and then he died. He got pancaked by a dump truck. I found ViaGen pets via an internet search, just searching normal things. The idea of him leaving me one day is too hard to bear, but I have comfort knowing that his genes have been preserved. So they haven't even cloned. Yeah, I think they've cloned any pets. They've just scooped up part of Hercules. tossed in in the in in in in in in in the freezer in the freezer in the freezer in the freezer in the freezer't even cloned. Yeah, I think they've just like... I don't think they've cloned any pets. I'm gonna... They've just scooped up part of Hercules. Tossed it in the freezer, put a little tag on that, um, on the goop. And...

Thank you. That's $10,000. $50,000. No, no, no, because they haven't been cloned, because they cl clthey've just frozen Hercules body. Do you think this company has been around long enough to actually instigate the cloning protocol when a pet dies? Oh there is a dog in here called Bugsy Levine. Sure dude. The dog's got two names. I'm just trying to find... If you have cloned your pets via via via gen pets, please send us an email. Oh no. Athena is a Doberman. I have been in the Doberman breed since 1980. The weird way to phrase that. The breed health is steadily declined due to the extremely small gene pool.

I have Athena and Alexandria, her daughter, both stored to clone down the road. They have healthy pedigrees and lines that cannot be replaced. They both are the loves of my life and both girls own me like no other dogs I have ever owned. They're brilliant, compliant, and just love to work. Emphasis is this woman's. Hopefully more breeders put healthy dogs into your program and maybe just maybe there'll be hope for the breed I've dedicated my life to. This is a scam. I think more I'm more than a scam. I feel like I should report via gen pets to some kind of scam watch which I assume they don't have in the United

States. They don't have a scam. I think you're just allowed to do scams. Yeah it's they're just allowed to the the sca sca sca sca sca sca sca sca sca sca sca sca sca sca. I the scam. I the scam. I the scam. I the scam. I the scam. I the scam. I the scam. I the scam. I the scam. I the scam. I the scam. I they they they are just the scam.

They're doing the scams. Oh, good lord. Every single one of the, they've just stored the stuff. Stored the meat, the meat that they'll use. In 2018, the first successful cloning of primates using SC&T was reported with the birth of two live female clones. Oh yeah, now we're getting close. Yep. There are a crab-eating macarks named Jean-Jong and Hua.

Doesn't say anything to hear about a successful humid cloning. Hmm. If you're a clone, right into a set. Pointe to Vista. Please don't. Very scared of you. And please indicate whether you know.... Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeahe to this. Yeah. Please don't. Very scared of you. And please indicate whether you know for sure

if you're the original or the clone. That's true. Going to need some proof. It'd be exactly like in that Paul Jennings story. Yeah. He finds out he's the reversed one. Oh. Here's a story from new scientist.

Life found beneath Antarctic ice sheet shouldn't be there. That's a good headline. Yeah, okay, sure, that sounds good. Hey, should you be down there? No. The inadvertent discovery of sea life on a boulder beneath an Antarctic ice shelf challenges our understanding of how organisms can live in environments far from sunlight, according to a team of biologists.

I do like that they have to attribute that claim. Like they're not willing to put on the record that it challenges our understanding. They have to say somebody else says it challenges our understanding. We have no opinions as to whether or not it does. We couldn't make make a our our our our our our our our the the the the the thens our to to thens our to thens to thens to thens thens thens, thus thus thus thus thus thus thus thus to thus thus thi thi tho-s to thi thi thi organisms to to to to to. We have no opinions as to whether or not it does. We couldn't make a call, by the way. James Smith and Paul Unker at the British Antarctic Survey drilled through the 900 meat thick Filchneron ice shelf and dropped a camera down the hole in search of mud on the seabed.

I can show you mud in lots of places that don't have 900 meters of ice on top of them. Name one. The banks of the beautiful Brisbane River. That's certainly true. Wouldn't know. To their surprise, it revealed a boulder ringed by animals. Footage appears to show 16 sponges, accompanied by 22 unidentified animals that could include barnacles.

Exciting. Very exciting stuff. There can be barnacles. Exciting. Very exciting stuff. There can be barnacles. It could be barnacles down there. It is the first time that immobile life like these creatures has been found beneath an Antarctic ice sheet. There's also... I don't trust him. No, they're up to no good. Don't trust a barnacle. There's all sorts of reasons they shouldn't be there, says Hugh Griffiths at the British Antarctic Survey who analyzed the footage. He thinks the animals, which are probably filter feeders, survive on nutrients carried in the minus 2 degrees sea water. The conundrum

is that they are so far from obvious nutrient sources, given that the boulder is located 260 kilometers from the open water at the f of the Filchner Ron ice shelf where photosynthetic organisms can survive. What's more, the sponge's food is probably traveling from even further a field, says Griffiths. Given what we know about the ocean currents in the area, the nearest upcurrent source of sunlight appears to be 600 kilometers away. It isn't yet clear whether the rock-hugging animals are new to science, how long they live. Some Antarctic glass sponges are more than 10,000 years old, or how often they feed, be at once a year, a decade or a century.

There is signs that life on this single boulder isn't a one-off thing. Filming also captured a single sponge on another rock nearby. The find is significant because it suggests life in Antarctica's harsh environment is more adaptable and more diverse than we thought. Griffiths now wants to study the animals more closely, but it won't be easy in such a remote, harsh place. Tiny remotely operated vehicles lowered down a bore hole in the ice are one option that may unlock the answers. That is exciting. That is exciting. 6,ers, barnacles, yeah that's pretty crazy. All of these numbers are huge. Ten thousand years old? Nothing should live for that long. I don't think so and I don't trust them. No. They're getting nutrients in a way

that we, the science is yet to understand. Can you call what a sponge is doing living? Sort of just like... Not really, you know. It's very passive existence. But who among us is not simply born aloft by the currents of life and, you know, getting by. I'm not really making active decisions on a day-to-day basis. That's true. Maybe if I was given the option in the film The Lobster, whether I would become whatever animal I like, maybe I'd just be a sponge, you know. Do they let you choose the animal? Yeah, that's why he chooses the lobster. I can't remember much about that movie, except I really like it. But, you know, maybe being a sponge is where it's at. Just, pretty chill. Just existing, you know.

I am already living my dream life. That's true. That's my recommendation to everyone. Produce a podcast. You don't have to do all that

much if you already enjoy reading the news a lot. I love that news. Love it. Griffith now wants to study the animals more closely but it won't be easy in such a remote harsh way. You already did it? I don't remember saying the thing about ROVs. You sure did. You sure did. How excited was my tone of voice? Right, it's the thing. You weren't that excited. Maybe I was thinking about something else. I get very excited about ROVs. I love those little guys. Yeah. th. I th. I'm th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th.

Is this why you're asking me about whether I had a remote control car? No, that was mostly because I wanted to gauge how much you guys experience fun. Oh, a drone jump fun. Oh, boring. Yeah, okay. Well, flying something around is pretty cool. Oh, planes are so stupid. I love remote control cars and RVs. All right, fair enough.

Fulch, Jesse got to like, their whole study was them piloting ROVs on the bottom of the token epistleplane. Yes, Jesse went down into the ocean in a little submarine type thing and they pilot weird shit down there. Like it's not for me, I don't want to know what's going on down in the ocean, but I'm glad someone's doing it. Not of your business. Not of my business.

Don't care for it. I want to find out. I really enjoy that every time they release a new season of Blue Planet, which is twice so far, they find new, we're just like, animals can't get any more strange. They're so weird. This reminds me I was watching some ocean documentary last night and it had a bunch of shit about cuttlefish. You guys know how cuttlefish mating happens? Is that the one where they like sort of aggressively spear each other? Well, it's like the men all aggressively hover around this woman and just like the biggest cuttlefish comes and this documentary said, like a fire hose, like flushes out the other cuttlefish's semen. So that his is the last one in there. Look up cuttlefish mating, very upsetting.

And you're all watching this, and my understanding is that you don't smoke weed. No, I just thought it'd be nice. I was like, I want to watch some shit about whale sharks and then it was just very, very aggressive, very polyamorous cuttlefish stuff going on. Yeah, it's some sinister about all of the cephalopods. Anything that looks like that down there? They know something. They know more than us.

The ocean, the Antarctic, all of it. Let's not go there. How about investigating what's happening in our own homes? Oh, I don't really know what that could mean. No. And it wasn't a segue for anything either. Give you pets a belly rub instead of exploring. Yeah, please don't clone them. Please don't look at cloning your pets. No, don't clon your pets. And if you already have, please tell us about, and also give us 500 bucks, you rich piece of shit. Yeah, rich mothucker. Oh, that's probably enough for this week, I would say.

Thank you very much for listening. It is still freemium freebrewery. It is freemium freebrewary. So bonus episodes are free. You can get a little taste of what it'd be like to essentially do what you're doing now, but twice. Really? You need $5 less a month. It's exciting stuff. Oh, you can pay an Australian dollars now, I think. So instead of paying five US and then having that converted to Australian dollars, you can pay seven Australian dollars. Yep, I don't know if that's true yet. No, it is, some people have already done it. Oh, that's good for them.

A friend of the show, Travis, for example, has already done it. Thank you, Travis. Except he's paying twice as much as he needs to. What are you doing? You fool? I'll be very much, thank you. That's everything from us. We will. next week or sooner. No, definitely next week. Okay, yeah, I'm putting this out on Sunday. Yeah. All right. All right. Bye. Bye.

Bye. The kid that worked down at the local basket Robbins got a tattoo of a lipstick print attached above his collar. A monster relocating pistachio to a waffle thinking I had lost the plot if not the passion for the novel. He asked me what I wanted, I ordered something daft. He said he liked the tattoo Alex drew me of the bats. Thanks. I like it too, but modestly confess. In present company, my coloring is not the main event.

Look at that neck. The message is admitting at the guy F chicks. I spent a lot of years making friends with cool artists.

Uh, lot of years. The girl that worked down at the local juicy place.

Got a head full of dreadlocks down to her waist. I watched her at the spinach to the ginger to the grapes. My hair was underwhelming, my juice was fucking great. Some lady orders Maka compliments the locks. She asked them many years it to the girl to grow the crop. It took a lot of years and then eventually I cut them, kept them and reattach them any time I want them. My mom's fucking blown.

The future is amazing. I feel so fucking old. I bet you clone your pets and ride a hoverboard to work.

You should have seen me in the 80s. I was bumping new addition, dragging acne into Hades.
