Starting point is 00:00:00 Hello and welcome to Bonavista, episode 1992. I am here in the year 1996, standing in the offices of Sony Music. Behind me is a whiteboard with two columns of text. On one side is a list of popular alternative rock, metal and new metal bands, and on the other is a list of popular trip-hop and electronic bands. With me is Andrew, who in a moment of genius inspiration has approached the board and drawn a line between Corn and the Dust Brothers and another line between Marilyn Manson and Sneaker Pimps. Hi Andrew. Hello. I've had a vision, I've had a vision for the future or more specifically
Starting point is 00:01:07 Just the present for a little bit. Mm-hmm. I think something truly magical is happening here Something that people will talk about for at least 25 years Yeah, I'm drawing a line from Marilyn Manson current artist that nobody thinks is weird to Snickeraker pimps. It's a real peanut butter and chocolate moment. Phrush. Also with us is Lucy, who in a flurry of activity has shouted Eureka and to the board to draw a line between Incubus and DJ Grayboy, Metallica and DJ Spooky, and Tom
Starting point is 00:01:45 Morello and the prodigy. Hi, I'm the... Hi, I'm so excited right now. This is incredible. Can you imagine what this is going to be like? We are of course here at an incredible moment in history, the creation of the soundtrack to the movie, Spawn. Who among us could forget incredible bangers like I dotrip like I do or kick the PA?
Starting point is 00:02:08 Am I right? You are right. You are so correct. The Dust Brothers, I didn't really do anything. They did the Spawn soundtrack, they did the Fight Club soundtrack, and no much else. Really? Nothing else. They were originally called the Chemical Brothers and they had to change their name because of the Chemical Brothers. But apparently they named themselves in tribute to the Chemical Brothers, which is very confusing because that's sort of just like taking their name. Hey, I really love the band. I can't think of another band.
Starting point is 00:02:41 What bands exist? The Beatles. So in tribute. We're calling ourselves the Beatles. People will love that. I already got a really good idea would be to call your band the Beatles but spelled properly? Like without the pun? I guess so. Like that'd be great.
Starting point is 00:02:59 Oh, like the Beatles? Like the Beatles? What if we just did covers of the Beatles and we called ourselves the bugs? We reckon anybody's ever thought of that? That seems too high level. I actually got the idea for doing this from when I previously worked on the soundtracks in the movie Judgment Night. It was a full a full four years before the current moment in 1997 that we are having crafting the soundtrack to spawn.
Starting point is 00:03:26 What's, uh, it was that also genre mashups? I'm not familiar with that. So that was, uh, so here are some of the combos from the excellent soundtrack to the movie Judgment Night. We've got helmet and house of pain. Oh, fuck it. We've got Teenage fan Club and Della Soul. Yep.
Starting point is 00:03:46 Great. We've got Living Color and Run DMC. Okay. We've got BioHazard and Onyx. Unfamiliar. What? We've got Slayer and Ice T. Yep. Now we're talking.
Starting point is 00:04:01 We've got Faith No More and Buyar tribe. Oh, wait, no, fuck, I do know this one. This is the one with, um, I love you, Mary Jane, the Sonicuth and Cypress Hill song. That is correct. There is also a combination of Mudhoney and Sir Mix a lot. Oh my goodness. Pearl Jam and Cyprus Hill one is fucking amazing I'm not true. Not sure. The Sonic Youth in Cypress Hill one is fucking amazing. That's a genuinely incredible song. I listen to that like once a week. Easy.
Starting point is 00:04:32 Easy. Easy. As genre mashups go, an even more influential soundtrack. Of course, great movie. Emilio Esteve, Jeremy Pivens Hare, and Stephen Dorf. Oh man, this is, uh, so Robert Criscoll gave this album an A-minus, which is interesting, just from a Sonic Youth perspective, because Robert Crisgow hated their early work, uh, they're like, their first couple of EPs. They released one of their songs originally under the title, I killed Robert They released one of their songs originally under
Starting point is 00:05:05 the title I Killed Robert Krisgau with my big fucking dick before renaming it to something more tasteful but it turns out when they do a collab with Cyprus Hill he's on board. Maybe yeah he just loves Cyprus Hill so much. He's willing to overlook the rest of the issues. Was Sonic Youth related issues. I'm giving two thumbs down to Sonic Youth. That's me, not Robert Christian. Yeah, get him.
Starting point is 00:05:33 Get Sonic Youth. Wow. I'm allowed to do that. Okay. We're a rich tapestry of different people, some with correct opinions and some with wrong opinions, and that's fine. I'll be over here listening to whoever I just said and on it. I have no opinion on Sonic Youth, so you know, this is between you guys. I'll just, uh, the bad guy in the movie Judgment Night is Dennis Leary, which is funny. That is funny. Is he good at it? Uh, well, I don't know, it was very of the time when they were like, you know how he is in like, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, th, th, the, 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, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thin, thin, thi, thin, thi, thi. thi. thi. thiii. thi. thii. thi. thi. thi. And, thi, thi, it was very of the time when they were like, you know how he is in like, um, demolition man?
Starting point is 00:06:08 Or he's just like, I'm being sassy. I'm doing, I'm doing some of my bits. I'm Dennis Leary. Doing some of my bits. You're telling me we don't have coffee flavored coffee in the future? He says, and everyone just goes, ah. You know, I was watching Demolition Man the other day, and I was like, hold on a second, because they, the whole thing is kind of positioned as like,
Starting point is 00:06:35 they get frozen, and then, you know, they wake up in like a highly advanced version of society where they kind of don't recognize anything. It's you know, it's all weird. Nobody swears anymore. Nobody makes physical contact anymore. Everybody's listening to like, like 1950s jingles on radio is the ultimate pop songs. And there's, like, for the sake of the plot, when they go to fish Sylvester Stallone out of his cryostasis, there's like one old guy in the police department who's like, I remember him, I used to work with him. And I was like, how long is the gap between these two things? Because this guy is about 55 to 60 years old and he's been alive this whole time.
Starting point is 00:07:30 I was like, has Sylvester Stallone been frozen for like 15 years and all of society has completely transformed in that time? I don't know. It's a real concern that I've never had about the movie Demolition Man before. But that one never crossed your mind. That one got me thinking. I was like, I kind of assumed it had been a bigger gap, but now it's making it look like. Yeah, not all that long. Not that long. Like you think how much society is transformed between now and the in 1996 when the Spawn soundtrack was made? Not all that much. Which we all. that we really really really really, th, th, really, really, th, really, really, really, I that we that we all that we all, 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's really really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really. Really. Really. Really. Really. Really. Really. Really. Really. Really. Really. Really. Really. Really. Really. Really. Really. Really. Really, really. Really, really. Really, really. Really, really, really, really, that, that, really, that that that that that that that that, really, really, really, really, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, it's, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, really, that, really, really, really and the year 1996 when the spawn soundtrack was made. Not all that much. Which we all took a big hand in. I feel like it's kind of a lot.
Starting point is 00:08:10 We like made the internet and destroyed everything. Hmm. Well, we had an early version of destroying things as well. Yeah, sure. But they were in prototype stages. Oh, it's getting a little bit warmer. OK. great. We've got a whole lot of things fucking going on right now. Superstorms, you heard about those? You only think it's gonna get hot. You don't know about the snowstorms yet, you dumb fucks. That's true, we were like, oh, global warming, that planet's gonna get
Starting point is 00:08:40 w-nonighs. No worries. No, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th. We, th. We th. We th. We's th. We's th. We're th. Wea, tho, tho, tho, tho-s. We're thoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo-s, tho, though. Well, not exactly what happened. I'll just turn my fan up. No worries. No problem. It's okay though. We've super storms and fires and whatever. But we invented Bitcoin. We got Bitcoin. We do have bit coins. We got those NFTs or niftees as I like to call them because they're so darn nifty. Have you a DVDs which I like to call David's. That one never took off. Going down to the video easy and take down a couple of weekly Davids. That's right. Just sauntering up to the counter gotten your new David's in. What the fuck are you talking about? Oh you guys got this one on David? Yeah I just prefer the sort of David fidelity. Society would have been better if we decided to call David sort of David fidelity. Society would have been better if we decided to call DVD's David's David. Coming soon to home, David. I feel like I kind of I feel like I've kind of blanked out in my mind like how
Starting point is 00:09:36 how shitty DVDs were. Like just quality-wise. I'm gonna sound like the exact sort of person that would say this. But I'm gonna say the leap from VHS to DVD. Not a huge gap in quality. 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, that's, that's that's th. th. th. th. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, coming, coming, coming, coming, coming, coming, coming, coming, coming, coming, coming, coming, coming thi, coming. Coming, coming, coming, coming, coming, coming, coming, coming, coming, th. Coming, th. Coming, th. Coming, th. Coming, th. Coming, th. Coming, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th's, th's, th's, thi. that's, thi. thi. Coming, thi. Coming, th's, thi. Coming, thi. Coming, thi. Coming, thi. Coming, thi. Coming, thi. Coming, thi. Coming going to sound like the exact sort of person that would say this, but I'm going to say the leap from VHS to DVD. Not a huge gap in quality. That's kind of what I'm saying, because like when I got together with a wife of the show, my wife, Helena, she lived in a sharehouse and they just had like this terrible little TV with a like TV VCR kind of thing I think it was and they were like we have six VHS's isn't that cute and I was like no It's not and I bought everyone down But I remember them like putting on some VHS's just being extremely struck by like wow There is no like color depth in this at all everything's extremely flat, you know terrible audio, but then if you go back and watch a DVD. It's like, thi. thi. thi. thi. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. the the the th. the th. the th. the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. No, no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no, no no, no, no, no, no, no th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the. the the the the the the the the the the. V. V. V. V. V. V. V. V. V. V. V. V. V. th. V. Everything's extremely flat, you know, terrible audio. But then if you go back and watch a DVD, it's like that sure is standard definition. Yeah, it looks like shit now.
Starting point is 00:10:34 It looks like shit. It's maybe, I think the problem is the size of our TVs. We were watching DVDs on like 34 centimeter CRTs and thinking, oh, fuck. This is incredible. And then, yeah, wow, there's no, there's no static. Weirdly, I've, I've done a bunch of movies in like full-size cinemas off DVD before and if you're like not sitting in the front five rows, you kind of can't tell. But if you're like watching something in front of like a 50-inch TV that you're a meter away from on DVD, you're like, this looks like fucking shit. And digital artifacts look horrible.
Starting point is 00:11:08 They look so fucking bad. Like, yeah, it's weird. Check out either VHS or Blu-ray. The only two formats I will purchase. Men be caring about picture quality, you know? What do you care about, Lucy? What do women care about, Lucy? What do women care about?
Starting point is 00:11:27 Quick, quick, go. What do women care about? I don't know. Most of them seem to. Never, ever know. That's not true. That was actually answered in the Mel Gibson film, What Women Want. I believe that was calledthat they care about and generally I think what they wanted in that movie was
Starting point is 00:11:49 I think to be to be kissed by Mel Gibson at some point against their will probably. Yeah, right. No, I'd like a version of that movie where it is what women care about and he's just like, damn, she does not even care that this is in standard definition. So this is a 4k ultra Blu-Blu-Blu-ray and he and he and he. And he. And he. So th. So this. So this is this. So this is this. So this is like, this. So this is like, th. So this is like, th. So this is like, th. So this is like, this is like, this is like, this is a this is a this is a this is a th. So thia, thirty, thia, thia, thia, thia, thi, thi, thi, thi, thia, thian, thian, thian, thian, thian, th. th. th. th. th. So, th. So, th. So, th. So, th. So, th. So, th. So, th. So, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thirty, thirty thirty thirty thirty, the the thean. thean. thean. thean. thean. thean. thi he's like reading her thoughts and she's just like, I could just say that I have diarrhea and leave. Oh, diarrhea's acted up. Gotta go home. She actually cares about how many guns are being fired in the movie. That's right.
Starting point is 00:12:19 More than one, too many, apparently. What women care about is if it was directed by John Wu or not. That's true. Oh boy. I wonder if we have any way of getting from what we're currently talking about to some of the things that we have in the notes here. You wouldn't expect to see a woman in the 4K ultra-Blu-ray section of J.B. Hi-Fi, and you also wouldn't expect to see an enormous South American bird in your housing estate in England. Okay. It's a different kind of bird in the wrong place.
Starting point is 00:12:58 Oh, fuck, I should have done that. Yeah, it should have done that. A woman in the 4K ultra-Blu-ray section of J.B. Hi-Fi. That's just as crazy as a burden. Nope. Are you still got it wrong? Yeah, I fucked that one up as well. And I'm going to edit all this out so I wouldn't worry about it. So send us, send into us, leave that in.
Starting point is 00:13:19 Leave that in. No, I'm going to hear that out as well. If you want to do a second line reading and Stop talking so Andrew can do it clean here we go This one is sent into us by I'm actually I did a silent count in but I don't think you saw me doing it. I neither here nor see the slapper you know the slate. Oh, I should have done the slate sorry. I'm actually I did a silent count in but I don't think he saw me.

Go on this one was sent into us by listener Basna so this is from the English Sky News which I assume is as bad as ours but with more transphobia I actually think it's not as bad we have the worst sky news in the world that's that's one of Australia's claim to fame to fame to fame to fame to fame to fame you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you do the the to do the the to do I I I I I I do I do I do I do I do the the the the the to do I do I do I do I do I do I do I do I do I do I do the th do I do I do th do I do I do I do I do I do I do I do I do I do I do I do I do I do I do I do do I do do I do I do I do I do I do I do I do I do I do I do I do I do I do I do I do I do I do I do I do I do I I I I I do I I I I do I I I I do I do I do I do I do I do I do I do I do I do I do I do th th th th th th th th th th thin thin th thin th th th the the thin th th th thin th th the thin th the the the the the the the the with more transphobia. I actually think it's not as bad. We have the worst Sky News in the world.
Starting point is 00:14:07 That's one of Australia's claim to fame. You reckon? Yeah. Dogwalkers warned as 20 giant South American rears rampage around Hertz housing estate. Okay. Around 20 giant South American birds are on the loose in Hertfordshire. With police warning they have been seen attacking dogs. Obviously that's not funny if it was your dog you'd be very upset but at the same time,
Starting point is 00:14:35 it's a bit funny. Also, my dog could fucking kill one of those birds, so, you know. So I'm looking at a picture of Aria and there is a very ostrichy emu type vibe. Yeah, if you would like to see Aria at action, simply Google Rhea Bolsonaro, I believe that tell you that's his name, and what's that three image sequence of him being bitten by one? Oh, it's the hosebirds. It's them birds, yeah. They look, they look just like if you mashed up an emu and an ostrich, much like mashing
Starting point is 00:15:14 up, say, the filter and the crystal method to create a whole new kind of sound. That's beautiful, thank you for tying that together. The rear birds which can grow to around five feet tall and have a top speed of 50 miles per hour have been spotted near Maple Cross. Similar to an ostrich, but smaller, the animals are believed to be wild. How can you tell? Just running around savagely attacking dogs. I mean they mean wild in the sense of very cool. These birds are wild. You've got to love them. P.C. Christian Gottman from the Rickmansworth and District Safer Neighborhood Team
Starting point is 00:16:01 said, these birds are certainly an unusual sight of the streets of three rivers. That's so true. We want to reassure the public that we are working in partnership with the Three Rivers District Council highways and our rural operational support team to come up with a plan to capture and re-home the birds to a suitable animal reserve. Now the problem is that the British police don't always have guns on them. Oh yeah they could have have the British the British the British the British the British the British the British the British the British the British the British their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their. their. their. their. their their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their.

We're their Oh yeah, they could have absolutely merked either these birds or each other if they'd been appropriately equipped. They could have done these birds in in the fashion of say a groundhog or a cow, just immediately putting a whole bunch of bullets in them. And if you'd like to hear stories about police officers attempting to put bullets into cows and then failing and putting bullets into each other,
Starting point is 00:16:44 subscribe on Patreon. is attempting to put bullets into cows and then failing and putting bullets into each other, subscribe on Patreon. If you think you may be able to help with this, please get in toucest with us. If you have any special know-how or tools that will help us catch two dozen giant South American birds. Do you perhaps have a lassoo or a large net? Do you have the power to communicate with animals like Dr. Doolittle? Do you have a tranquilizer dart gun? Bring it in a we will not ask any questions. In the meantime we would advise the public not to
Starting point is 00:17:20 approach these animals as they are very fast much like their larger counterparts and can be aggressive if cornered. Unfortunately, we have received reports of them attacking dogs and deer, so we ask the dog owners are vigilant when out walking. Do we ever talk about on here that news story that was like the guy just kind of getting knocked over by a kangaroo in its front yard? No? the guy just kind of getting knocked over by a kangaroo in its front yard? No, I don't know if we did it. I'm trying to remember if I ever mentioned it, but like, when over Christmas we were staying with my parents and they just had like normal TV on at some point, you know, when you see normal TV for a minute and feels like you're having a small seizure. It is awful, yeah. Yeah, so they had, um, they had, um, they had like like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, their their their their their their their their their their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their their, their, their, their, th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, th. I th. I th. I th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm to. I'm th. I'm th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I so they had, um, they had, uh, like regular news on at some point.
Starting point is 00:18:07 I think because, um, uh, my oldest daughter wants to, like, see the news, wants to know what's going on in the world. I'm like, don't, just, you don't need to see the news. That's been a major problem for all of us, I think. Yeah, you can't see the news until the news the news the news the news the news the news thuuu news to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the to to to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see the the the the the news the news the news's the news's the news's the news's the news's the news's the news's the news's the news's the news's the news's the news's the news., the't see the news until you're 18 as far as I'm concerned. You don't need to. It's not improving anybody's life to see too much news, I think. No. But anyway, so we had like just a normal, I guess it would have been a sort of rural affiliate
Starting point is 00:18:40 of like nine or seven or something doing the news. And they had like a African youths out of control story, which I thought was very retro. And they also had a story which was like, oh this man attacked by a kangaroo in his own yard. And this is one of those times that like they've just seen a video on the internet and ask the person if they can use the video on the news and then turn it into a several minute long news story. Yeah, man.
Starting point is 00:19:09 Hi there. I work at blah blah blah. Would you mind if we use this for the TV? Will you please see it all rights according to this link. Yeah. And the whole video is the whole is is is is front yard, which I think the house had been built recently, you know, when the yard is just all dirt and they haven't put like grass down yet or whatever. And there's a kangaroo just kind of standing there, and the guy goes over to it,
Starting point is 00:19:38 and he's like, I think he's holding a beer, going over to it and is like trying to pick up some like a stick or something just to poke the kangaroo with to make it go away? And the kangaroo just goes, oh and like hops past him, knocking him over as he bends down to like pick up another stick and he just kind of hopples over and his wife behind the camera goes, oh no! And like, Keith, Keith, no! And it was really one of those classic situations where it's like, they were describing the kangaroo as like squatting on their property? Not so.
Starting point is 00:20:18 It's like, no. It's literally just an animal that is like standing in your yard. It's literally just vibing. It was just viving. You could have just been like, the, the, no. the, no. the, not. the, not. the, not. the, not. the, not. the, not. Keith. Keith. Keith. Keith. Keith. Keith. Keith. Keith. Keith. Keith. the, not.

It's literally just vibing. It was just vibing. You could have just been like, hey, there's a kangaroo out there, oh well, and gone back to having your breakfast or whatever. But instead this guy's like, oh, I better go out there and deal with it. Yeah, someone around he's got to take care of this. I'd better. Oh I wouldn't want that kangaroo to be standing on my dirt for too long. Look I don't I don't want to
Starting point is 00:20:49 turn this into a segment of us describing videos we've seen on the internet but you remember from last year that guy that got fucking murked by the the dolphin while he's on a stand-up paddleboard? No. That's all it is. The-I's a -up paddleboard, there's a beautiful pot of dolphins, you know, enjoying the waves, the same as the man, and then one of them comes out of the water and like shifting its body sideways, hits him clean in the solar plexus, knocking hit the fuck off the board. Awesome. That's the most like, and you know, dolphins are all psychonic so it did it 100% on purpose. thiol. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. I, th. I, th. I, thi. I, thi. I, thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, their their their their their their their the same, the same, the same, the same the same, the same the same, the same, the same, the same, the same, the same, the same, the same, the same, the same, the same, the same, the same, the same, their, thi. And then, thi. And then, thi. And then, thi. And then, that, that. And then, that. And then, that, that thatea. And, that thatea. And then, that, that, that, the same, the same, that Yeah just for fun. And like you've not on a stand-up paddleboard you know you're not bracing for anything you just sort of standing there so this guy's just gone flying off cartoon style absolutely beautiful. Wonderful. Like you couldn't be mad either like you're not gonna get up and be like fuck you to the dolphin you'll be like ah you got me.
Starting point is 00:21:38 Got me good. You got me real good by barreling your, I assume about a hundred kilo body directly into mine. Uh, but yeah, in this case it was just like, kangaroo's just standing there, you did not need to go out and attempt to like, prod it. Uh, don't prod kangaroos. That's a official advice. Not just because it's rude to them, but I would advise against it for your personal safety. Not just because you, Lucy, respect all animals deeply. That's right.
Starting point is 00:22:08 Also it's because it could like rip you open from mouth to anus. Sure could. If you've ever seen kangaroos kicking each other, just ask yourself, would you like to be the one being kicked? And I think the answer is no for most people, but like... It's a no for me. It was just, it was very funny to see this news report where they were attempting to cast it as like, um, this, a kangaroo was illegally camping on my property and I had no choice but to attempt to confront him and I then was attacked and the actual video is just, I went outside and tried to start like hitting a kangaroo with a stick and then it just
Starting point is 00:22:46 knocked me over because I'm an idiot. I gave this kangaroo a move on order and then it began resisting arrest and then it assaulted me. That's right. So same thing for the rears. Like if you see one, don't think to yourself, what if I were to corner this large bird? This extremely large bird. This five foot tall bird, perhaps attempt to put it in a headlock, restrain it in some kind of, you know, maybe I can take its back, get into a leg hold of some kind, you know?
Starting point is 00:23:18 It's probably not going to happen. Just leave the giant birds alone. Leave the big kangaroos alone. Leave all that kangaroos alone. Leave all that kind of stuff alone. I feel like this article is deeply incurious as to why 20 South American flightless birds roaming the streets of, where are we, Hertfordshire? Yeah, they don't seem to, I feel like we've talked about Hertfordshire before. I know we've talked about, actually I think we have. I feel like there's been some other kind of the kind kind kind kind kind kind the kind the kind the kind the kind the kind the kind the kind the kind the kind the kind the kind the kind the kind the kind the kind the kind the kind the kind the kind the kind the kind the kind the kind the kind the kind the to I feel like we've talked about Hertfordshire before I know we've talked about actually I think we have I feel like there's been some
Starting point is 00:23:48 other kind of animal disaster in Hertfordshire that's not the place where they have like the drive-through zoo we were talking about like the monkeys tearing apart cars and stuff in a little drive-through safetary oh wow one of them has been loose in Hertfordshire before, seven years ago. I could have swallowing that when we were talking about that email was also Hertfordshire, but I think it might just be it was from the Hereford Times. It might just be that every name in the UK sounds relatively the same. Oh look at me, I'm from Cotswolds on Bobbles. That's the name of the place that I live and I think that's normal and I say the full name every time when I'm talking to
Starting point is 00:24:27 people. I'm from Trenton Stoke. Not a real place. Okay. Just leave that one. Yep. Oh yeah, okay. Okay. Anyway. Anyway. Time to move on to... Wait a minute. Last year the long-necked bird was spotted walking between cars on the A12. Just hanging out. There's a giant bird on me, A12. What a place to live out. That just seems I would like more information here.
Starting point is 00:25:04 I'm craving someone being like, yes, for some reason we have a feral population of South American flightless birds and instead they're just like, oh, they're probably wild. Living in some thorpe or hamlet somewhere. You know how these things just pop up. Yep. Yep. somewhere. You know how these things just pop up. Yeah, yep. Yeah. Well, it must be time for a bit of robot watch. It's not only incredible how many segments we have, but it's incredible that we have a theme
Starting point is 00:25:41 for all of them. Huh. They all end with watch. That might be true. I've not looked into it. Won't be looking into it at all. Uh, this is a press release from the University of Southern California, or Usk. I believe people call it locally. Yes, I think that's correct. Not to be confused with Usk, the University of Sunshine Coast.
Starting point is 00:26:07 Hmm. Have we talked about this before? It's the difference between the Sunshine Coast and the Sunn, sunny coast? The sun... I'm sure we have. There is no difference. Those are the same place. I don't like when I see them described differently.
Starting point is 00:26:22 Just pick just the to the sunny case mate, yeah nice. People are not very nice to machines. The disdain goes beyond the slot machine that emptied your wallets, giving a lot of agency to the slot machine there. And it's targeting you. Remember when that slot machine pulled a gun, pointed it at you. Peep-boop, give me all your cash. A dispenser that failed to deliver a Coke. Yeah, that fucking grinds my gears. These are all very specific.
Starting point is 00:26:59 I'm sick of going to my local vending machine for a Coca-Cola and not getting one. Or a navigation system that took you on an unwanted detour. I'm getting a picture here of a rider whose satnav took them to a casino. They spent all their money on more chilies. Lost their whole paycheck on the slots and then absolutely furious went to get themselves from a coke machine that turned out to be broken. And now they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they got they got they got they got they got they got th th th th th tho on tho on a tho on a to to to took took took took took took to took 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 took took took took took took took took took took took took took took took their their took took the took took took took took took took took took took to took to to to t, absolutely furious, went to get themselves from a Coke machine that turned out to be broken. And now they got something against robots. Just picturing them standing there hand on the glass, that you had a bad day, so
Starting point is 00:27:34 I'm fine. And they march straight to the University of Southern California. I've got a fucking paper to write on this. Yet, Usk researchers report that people affected by COVID-19 are showing more goodwill to humans and human-like autonomous machines. That's because we're all going crazy. It's no other reason. Quote, the new discovery here is that when people are distracted by something distressing,
Starting point is 00:28:04 they treat machines socially like they would treat other people. We found greater faith in technology due to the pandemic and a closing of the gap between humans and machines haven't seen that. We started fucking robots. The closing of the gap is doing that thing where you yawn and then you put your arm around them and sort of sidle over. I'm feeling kind of tipsy right now. Are you feeling kind of tipsy? Beep-poop. I'm feeling so crazy. Anything could happen. I'm sorry I didn't hear you. Oh, I don't like the name of that. So that was a quote from Jonathan Gratch, senior author of the study and the study and director for virtual humans research. I don't
Starting point is 00:28:54 like that. Yeah. He's talking about a real doll. The findings which appeared recently in the journal I Science, Little Eye, Big S, uh, that's like a, like a little, do you remember iPods? Do you remember those eye pooed t-shirts? Sure do. Now that's comedy. That is comedy. Hey, uh, I put an extra O in there, and I've put a silhouette of a man on a toilet.
Starting point is 00:29:23 Pretty good. People under the age of, I'm gonna say, what do you reckon, the youngest person that recognizes an i-pooed t-shirt is? Oh. 20, 28. Yeah, yeah, I reckon. I'm gonna be slightly more generous. I'm gonna say 26. If you remember seeing an eye-pooed t-shirt in the wild and you are under the age of 26, please call us, that number is 888, 842, 2357. Let us know. There is a... Andrew, do you want to say what the actual number is? I was hoping you would correct me.
Starting point is 00:30:02 I'll get to that. Okay. There is a, an a, an a, an a, an a, an, an, an, an, an, an, an, an, an, an, an, an, an, an, tha, tha, tha, tha, thi. A, th. A, th. A, th. A, th, th, th, th, th, thi. I thi, th. I th. I th. I th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th. I to th. I to to to 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 th. I'm th. I'm tha, the. I'm tha, tha, tha, too.a.a, toge.a, toge, toge, toge, toge, toge, t.a, t.a, I'll get to that. Okay. There is a an Asian restaurant in Melbourne named IFO. Pretty. I-Fur. Well, yeah, but it kind of doesn't work if you say it like that, you know? Yeah, it doesn't, huh? No. They're clearly marketing to Australians with this. Clever stuff. Clever stuff. I pod iPad. I don't know anymore.
Starting point is 00:30:26 Coffee-flavored coffee. The findings, which appeared recently in the General Eye Science, come from researchers at U.S. George Mason University, or Moo. And the U.S. Department of Defense. Oh no. Awesome. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:30:44 This is terrified now. I love to get an article from the US Department of Defense about why everybody is respecting and loving machines more than ever. I'm just saying if you tell the US Department of Defense or U.S. Department of Defense that a pandemic will make people trust robots more. Huh. Okay. You know, I'm just, all right, you're picking up what I'm putting down, 5G, Microsoft, microchips, you know? Bill Gates of Hell. FEMA camps.
Starting point is 00:31:19 Um, death panels? Green, Jade helm, Operation Jade Helm. I think everyone really went off the Death Panels thing. Yeah, we're probably distracted by the Illuminati symbols and the blood thing that, what's her name did, that lady that I hate? Hillary Clinton? Yeah, sorry, Hilary Clen, yeah, no, the, what's the inseparable artist, woman? The artist is present. A Brahma, a Bramovich.
Starting point is 00:31:52 Yeah. Sorry. In studying human machine interactions, the researchers noted that people also displayed more altruism, both towards other people into machines. They showed this using the simple dictator game, which has been used in other studies as an established method to measure altruism. Is this just the, like the, the dictator game? Is this just the discredited Stanford experiment all over again?
Starting point is 00:32:20 I don't actually know what it is and I could have looked into it while I was doing the notes. I would hope it's not the Stanford prison thing. No, I don't think it is. So this has been... I'm looking at it here on the Wikipedia. The dictator game is a popular experimental instrument in social psychology and economics, a derivative of the ultimatum game, which of course we all know. The term game is a misnomer because it's not fun. No, just the term game is a misnomer because it captures a decision by a single player to send money to another or not.
Starting point is 00:32:54 Thus the dictator has the most power and holds a preferred position in this game, although the dictator has the most power and presents a take it or leave it offer, the game has mixed results based on different behavioral attributes. The results, where most dictators choose to send money, evidence the role of fairness and norms in economic behavior, and undermine the assumption of narrow self-interest from giving the opportunity to maximize one's profits. I don't understand. And that didn't help at all. It's also false.
Starting point is 00:33:18 Like, what are they saying that people are financially altruistic? Because it is objectively untrue. So the scientists selected people who had been adversely affected by COVID-19 based on measurements of stress and then enrolled them in the role-playing game with a twist. In addition to engaging other people in the exercise, the subjects also engaged computers. That's right, you're to fuck a computer. Unexpectedly, the people affected by COVID-19 showed the same altruism towards towards towards towards towards towards towards towards towards towards towards towards towards towards towards towards towards towards towards the same towards the same towards the same the same towards the same the same towards the same the same the same the same their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their t go to fuck a computer. Unexpectedly, the people affected by COVID-19 showed the same altruism towards computers and human
Starting point is 00:33:49 partners. As the participants were increasingly distracted with coronavirus concerns, they became more compassionate towards machines. This is a terrible study. This is strange. They're playing a game and they put the computer on as well. And I don't feel like that's a, like, the people are being altruistic doesn't mean they're being altruistic to a machine because you've got the computer bot playing it. I don't... I think they know it's a computer.
Starting point is 00:34:20 But even then, it's just, I feel like that's more of a reflection of how you're feeling, how you're playing this game. It has nothing to do with whether it's a human or a computer. I think you should actually test this by having people who have and have not been affected by COVID-19 walk through a supermarket past one of the little spill machines. I'm seeing that fucking spilbot. If you walk past, fuck you, fuck you, thuck, their, their, their, their,then they're normal. Oh, interesting, the participant didn't mutter fuck off you robot cunt. Hmm. And you were affected by COVID? Interesting. I fucking hate those things. And I hate getting into the supermarket and having my two kids go quick, let's find the robot.
Starting point is 00:35:00 That was the worst. I was adversely affected by COVID and then I came to Canberra and one of the first days I was there I had to see that fucking robot cunt. This dumb smile plastered on his face. This stupid fucking face. I mean, you had to go into hotel quarantine, which was an ordeal. So that actually probably made you more predisposed to like the robot. So imagine how visorally you would have just been like unscuing it a a a a a a the the the the toecing it a toecing it toecing it to like the robot. So imagine how viscerally you would have fucking hated him. You would have just been like unscruing its out of casing and just ripping out wires. Destroying it. Oh it looks like there's been a software
Starting point is 00:35:32 fault here. Go to hell you little shiny bitch. It would be so fun to destroy one of those with like an aluminium baseball bat or a sledgehammer. Especially if he had little things where he was like, please, no. Help, help. I am a living creature, please. As all of his like a little internal servo fluids come out, spill detected. It's just like the little screen and it's doing a bit from the end of alien, just the head. I hate those things. The study findings are consistent with previous research that shows disasters often bring out compassion in people who feel compelled to help. During the COVID-19 pandemic, people grew more dependent on machines to purchase products online, work remotely from home, take classes, or gain manufactured personal protective equipment.
Starting point is 00:36:25 Are they just talking about going online? I don't feel like doing internet shopping makes me like robots more. I also don't kind of, I don't feel like that's the same thing that they are kind of painting here, which is having an increased dependence on your interactions with a machine. Like, your increased dependence is on, like like companies who are running supply chains to deliver things to you shortly after you order them over your phone or computer. Like that's where the reliance is happening. I guess if you're like one of those absolute freaks using Alexa or whatever and being
Starting point is 00:37:04 like, Alexa, order me more toilet paper and then an Amazon drone launches it through your window 24 hours later or an hour later you'd be like Alexa brought me toilet paper. I love you Alexa. I think we got a free Google Home Mini at some point and maybe I need to just throw that thing in the trash because one of our kids has been having like, she's been like blinking too much, you know when your kids do that? I don't know. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:37:41 Derek's know what I'm talking about. You're like, hey, save some blinking for the rest of us. Everyone knows about the blinky sixes. I don't know which daughter you're talking about, and I also don't know how old your kids are. So, uh, so this is the seven-year-old and she, and she's been, um, she'd been like blinking a lot and talking about her eyes just feeling like irritated. And we were like, huh, thi thi thi thi thi thi thi nothing, thi nothing, to to to to to to to the to their to to to their their their, their, their, their, that's, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I thirty. I thirty. 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 don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I like, huh, maybe she needs glasses, maybe there's something going on, you know, but nothing, nothing like external to look at. She didn't have like super red eyes or irritate, like visible irritation or anything. But I only took it to the optometrist I think and they said, yeah, she's just got like really dry eyes. Some people's eyes just just get too dry. So you need... What? The human body, the human, the human, the human, the human, th is, th is, th, th, the human, th, th, th, th, nothing, th, nothing, th, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, th, nothing, nothing, th, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, th, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, th, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, 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, their, their, their, their, thi, thi, thi, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, thi, nothing, like, nothing, nothing, nothing, like, nothing, nothing, people's eyes just just get too dry. So you need... What? The human body is so amazing. It's so useless. It doesn't work. So we are currently giving her
Starting point is 00:38:35 two rounds of eye drops at multiple points in the day, one of which is like a, you know, like a saline type thing. And the other of which is like, like lubricating eye drops. So, so they're like, It's like slippery water. Yeah, they're like, they don't have water in them. They're like an oily based sort of thing. And then, then we're supposed to give her eyelids a massage
Starting point is 00:39:00 to help stimulate the glands in your eyes that make tears and stuff and we're meant to be feeding her oily fish. Okay why did I start talking about this I wonder you said I don't know because you have a Google Home mini oh yeah so so anyway we've been talking about thiii tooen oh yeah so so anyway we've been talking about fucking eye drops and, we've been talking about fucking eye drops and now I watch something on YouTube on the TV. What am I getting ads for? Fucking eye drops around the clock.
Starting point is 00:39:32 And it's just another one of those times where it's like, I have never received an ad on like YouTube or a banner ad or anything before. Also, neither of us like, you know, neither of us looked up like eye drops or anything on the internet. You haven't been googling special eye medication for dry eye daughter. We like Elna took her to the optometrist and then just walked to the chemist and bought the thing but we had been talking about it in our house and now we're getting fucking slammed with ads for eye drops and I'm like isn't
Starting point is 00:40:08 doesn't that make me just love robots? Doesn't that make me feel reliant on machines and love them so much? Well you've not been affected by COVID so that's true. That's so true. Yeah that's my favorite thing about targeted advertising is this has also been happening to me recently with headphones. I was like, I need to get some new Bluetooth headphones. And so I looked at some and then I ordered some and then I received them. And now all of the ads that I received for the rest of my life are going to be for wireless Bluetooth headphones. You just got to start needing something else. You've got to break the cycle. Yeah, but they only ever show you the ads for something after you've bought it. It makes me so
Starting point is 00:40:51 so, the other day I clicked on a targeted ad for bowling shirts and now I'm getting tons of ads for bowling shirts. That's pretty cool. So sometimes it's good. Yeah, sometimes it's nice. It's comforting, you know, someone cares about me. Someone knows what I like. And those are some good-looking bowling shirts. Well, according to these people at Usk and uh, and Moo and toud, this indicates it's possible to encourage goodwill towards machines in other ways, perhaps including machines that express emotions or cultural clues, just like the spill machine in the supermarket that smiles at you when you walk past it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:35 Don't slip. It's weird that they made it whisper when it says that. It's very strange. Hello, customer. I could like him more if he had more expressions, like if he saw a spill and he had a frown on his face. Yeah, fuck. What if it saw a spill went, ah fuck me, it's a fucking another one of these shit fucking. Whichy you cuts broke a fucking video bottle at aisle five? Yeah because he's, well he only has one expression because it's just like a panel that is like 100% lit
Starting point is 00:42:05 up LED stuff and they put a sticker over the top of it with the shape of the eyes and a mouth cut out. It is incapable of changing expression. I hate it. I don't know what he's thinking. I think they should just give him like really bad low level small talk. Like every time you walk past he's like a ha shopping hard or hardly shopping. My wife trying to hold me back in the supermarket fucking kill you! Never talk to me again. People notice that the robot only talks to women as they're coming through?
Starting point is 00:42:40 Hey what are you looking for? Can I help with anything? How you doing love? How you doing love? You're buying moisturizer but you looking for? Can I help with anything? How you doing, love? You're buying moisturizer, but you look radiant. You don't need it. Nappies, I never would have guessed you had kids. Is this for your sister? Oh, but the study raises concerns. Dunn, da, for example, nefarious programmers could design machines to look and sound more human. Oh, but the study raises concerns. For example, nefarious programmers could design machines to look and sound more human to
Starting point is 00:43:10 gain people's trust and then defraud them. That's quite a bow that you are drawing there. Yeah, but I mean, considering it's the Department of Defense working on it, I assume this is what they are working towards. Yes. Hopefully. We're making robotic secondhand car salesman. Look, I've just gone back to speak to the manager.
Starting point is 00:43:30 Wait a second, that robot didn't talk to the manager at all. It probably would be a net gain to replace property managers with robots. Yeah, they'd probably feel more, am I right? Fuck property managers. Yep. am I right? Fuck property managers. Yeah. And then like it's, it's okay for you to just scream at them all the time? Yeah, that'd be good. It'd be great if you could punch your property manager in the face. You should be allowed to.
Starting point is 00:43:55 Yeah, and if it has to be a robot for me to be able to do it, then so be it. Oh, dear. Well, oh had an inspection this week, like my first, because I've only been here for, I don't know, three or four months or something. And I didn't hear back from them, which is fine. Like normally, you know, sometimes they'll be like, hey, can you not fill your garage full of flammable materials that are precariously stacked and I'll say, no, fuck off. But I was like, oh, that's fine. I was like, oh, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, full of flammable materials that are precariously stacked and I'll say, no, fuck off. But I was like, oh, that's fine, except they probably should have, because my smoke alarm
Starting point is 00:44:35 was down, I'd taken it down because my kitchen gets smoked out really easily and I'd move somewhere else. So the fact that there should have been something they should have noticed and made a complaint about, because generally they'll like send out a fucking smoke alarm company if there's something even slightly off about it. The fact that they should have contacted me and haven't is making me really paranoid. Are they spending a week writing extremely angry email? Who knows? What's going on?
Starting point is 00:45:01 If you know what's going on, let me know. Good luck. R, I'm sure it's fine. Renting fucking sucks. I hate renting. It sucks so much. Hi everybody, it's me. It's Theo.

Starting point is 00:46:56 Andrew, how long did you spend on that? I've been thinking about that one for a while. That, um, that for me, feels like it falls exactly in between an outcast song and a morphine song, which I didn't think was scientifically possible. It's very impressive. I'm just picturing your wife being like, Andrew, please spend some time with the children. No, I have to lay down four more vocal tracks for a theme song for my podcast. I have to do all my hooting in here when they're out of the house. Right, this would be pretty
Starting point is 00:47:28 embarrassing right? You get bothered doing my takes of my falsettos in here. That was beautiful Andrew, thank you. Well and it's, I forget that you have talent sometimes. Thank you. Thank you. Wait. Time to check in on the Bundavista hotline and see what kind of things people have been sending to us. Because hey, we're hearing reports that the times we live in make people feel nicer about machines. Let's see if that's true. Hey, Bruce here. I was just listening to a recent episode where Ben was saying he couldn't be fucked to use his CPAP device and I thought you might like to know a few facts about a CPAP device in the states. Now my CPAP has a
Starting point is 00:48:13 4G thing built into it. It is a modem, it's always on and generally it is sold as an idea of like oh you can send your sleep records to your doctor. And if that were the case, then it could plug into my Wi-Fi, and that would be fine, right? So the reason it's actually always on and not on my Wi-Fi is because it's not for the benefit of you, it's for the benefit of your insurance company. The 4G will send the sleep data to the provider the device, and if the the the provider, to the the provider, to the the the provider, to the the the the the the the the the the the device and if you are not using it, then your insurance will stop paying for it. And then you'll be on the hook for your medical device even though you have insurance. So yeah, I just wanted to talk about the most efficient economic system in the world where we built tracking software into CPEP devices that makes them more expensive and the most free country in the world where you're free to be on the hook for it because you can't be th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, the th, th, th, th, th, the 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 th thu, 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 the the the the the the the thi, thi, thi, thi, throoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo, to them more expensive and the most free country in the world where you're free to be on the hook for it because you can't be fucked sometimes. I hate this country with every fucking fiber of my being.
Starting point is 00:49:14 Shit. Oh boy. So that's why they're all a fucking Grand Age. Yeah. Fuck you America. Death to America. Death to're all the fucking grand each. Yeah. Fuck you America. Death to America. Death to America. That's what's up.
Starting point is 00:49:29 That's what's up. Death to America. Oh, I'll say death to America. That's what's up. We're going to get in trouble for that one. Gonna get murdered by the CIA. Or by ISIS for stealing their bit. Whoever gets to us first. It's a real race against time for the CIA and ISIS.
Starting point is 00:49:51 Have you guys heard this? They're doing our material. So fucking mad. I was really enjoying the episodes I'd listen to so far until I got to this point. Isis just really enjoying a bunch of Instagram pod cards. So here's a letter to this point. ISS is just really enjoying a bunch of instant podgars. So here's a letter to the old mailbag. Just listened to episode 190 and Andrew made a comment about quote wanting to feel the beans on his chode and quotes this opened up the age-old debate of the definition of chode
Starting point is 00:50:22 among my peer group the accepted definition of chode is quote a penis wider than it isold debate of the definition of chode. Among my peer group, the accepted definition of chode is, quote, a penis wider than it is long like a tunican. But it seems Andrew was using the less common and arguably incorrect definition of chode being synonymous with a taint, taunt, or grundle. I would love clarification whether Andrew would like to feel bean-dip on. I would love clarification whether Andrews to feel bean-dip on. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I.

Thank you, friend of the show, Kathleen from Pittsburgh PA. Kathleen, I need to clear this up. Unfortunately I was raised in a very backward community where Chode was used to refer to the taint or the grundle.
Starting point is 00:51:01 The undercarriage area. The Gooch, the Grundle, the undercarriage area. The Gooch, if you will. The Perineum, if we want to get scientific. And we do. And we do. This is a science communication podcast. We do. As I grew older and I went out into the world, I started to learn the error of my ways. When you went on your room springer. Started asking people to check out my chode and then we... Oh, but it was your Gooch the whole time. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th, th, th, the th, the to th, to to to the the to get, to get, to get, to get, to get, the to get, the to get to get to get, to get to get the to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get to get, if we, if we, if we to get to get to get to get to get to get to get, to get to get, to get to get to get, the the the the the the the the the the the the the th, the th, the th, the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the thea. the thea. the. the. the. the. to check out my chode and then we... Oh but it was your gooch. It was my gooch the whole time. How embarrassing. That was the most embarrassing for you. That's awful. Yeah and so... As you do on a first date as you say, honey would you like to check out my chode? Seen this chode? No, please don't look at that. I meant my gooch. Although I would say that in addition to that you you you that you that you that you that you that you to to that you to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the to to to to to to to to to to to their their chouch their chouch. I their chouch. I their chouch. I their chouch. I their chouch. I their chouch. I was their chouch. I was their chouch.

Starting point is 00:51:47 you do have a tuna can penis. Look, I didn't say yes, I know to that part, but... A tuna can, that's very descriptive. It is, isn't it? A little squat boy, you know? Certified chode. So, yes, occasionally I do fall back into my old ways and inadvertently describe the taint as a chode when really the gooch is just a gooch,
Starting point is 00:52:14 you know. Yes, I'm sorry, did you need agreement on that point? I guess so. Yeah. I'm gonna assume that I was not present while you were talking about feeling bean dip on your gooch or taint. Well it wasn't bean dip, it was about a professional stuntman who had decided to sit in a bath full of beans in order to support his favorite local taco restaurant. Right. So it was actually normal when you said it is, yeah, okay. Yes. No, this wasn't him expressing a desire, unprompted. No, to to. No. No, 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 their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their goo their their good good good good good good good good good good good good good good tip.euce. I go gooooooooooooooom. I gooooom. I gooom. I gooom. I gooom. I gooom. I said it is yeah okay. Yeah. Yes, no this wasn't him expressing a desire unprompted. No, to be specific when we did see footage of the guy doing it, he was sitting in like, you know, like the waiters that fishermen wear where they like come up to sort of like above your stomach and they're like the
Starting point is 00:53:03 big rubber long pants and he was wearing those and sitting in there and I'm like are you really sitting in the beans you know if you don't feel them on your chode slash Gooch. Oh all right it all today's the degenerate of the Australian Comedy Booth podcast Beta Vista. My name's Den, I'm one of your patrons. I'm calling to inform me that I will be issuing a malevolent curse upon Andrew C.O. and especially Ben. I am invoking powers, both profane and ancient, to the witcher persons, and again mostly Ben's, because frequent intervals of the past eight days and again mostly bends, because it frequent intervals in the past eight days where it could have been hitting on almost anything in creation.
Starting point is 00:53:49 I am instead remembering the Stewie Griffin impression you played by this episode Carnival of Holes. Yeah, remembering this provokes me the same violent revulsion that I did the first time. I'm dimmed with this time, possibly even worse. Yeah, eldest destruction is too good for the life of you and frankly if I could figure it had to summon some kind of tricks to Deem and I would. Lucy is of course exempt the issue wasn't involved. Anyway, thanks for listening. As Doing so has activated the curse, and I'm looking forward to the next episodes. Love Dean.
Starting point is 00:54:25 All right, I'm going to, I'm gonna, I don't want to ask for the Stewie Griffin impression again. We can play it a second time. Andrew, do you reckon you can find that clip again? Is there anything funnier than a Stewie Griffin impression though really? I mean you're going to love this one this this this this this this this this thu, thu, thu, thu, thu, thu, thu, thu, thu, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, is thi, is thi, is th really. I mean you're gonna love this one. All right so Lucy for your reference when we were talking about our Carnival cruise lines and we discovered that the people who work in the like forced fun squad they actually performing all of the different venues on the cruise liner which includes like musical theater and they have like a comedy club and like with theater, and they have like a comedy club,
Starting point is 00:55:08 and like with the brick wall behind them and everything. And he is a guy, the punchline of comedy club, open Mike Knight, doing his classic bit about, what if there was more than one cruise director? They're not only going to have one, but two different cruise directors. Can you imagine what a day is going to be like of announcements? Be. Well, very good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen.
Starting point is 00:55:34 This is your cruise director, Stewie, and I want to give you a nice rundown of some funship activities going on today. Make sure you join me in the the theater for my big love and marriage show. It's going to be the funnest show you've ever seen all crews long. All right, well I'll see you then. Bing-boo. That's the infamous two cruise directors bit and for some reason. One of them is Stewie Griffin. I. Sorry to make you revisit this. Yeah, I don't think you're sorry. You don't sound sorry. Nice, enjoy that curse.
Starting point is 00:56:13 To listener Dan, can you please update your curse to include Lucy? I thought it was listener Dean. I think we're having a classic Dean Dan situation here. Gotta hate it when that happens. Let's see if we got anything left here from another listener who called in to the Bonapiste art line. Hey guys, what's Brian. I'm from America. I was just listening to the recent episode where Andrew and Theo were talking about bears again and someone wrote in with an email about how they grow up and they grew up learning about how to deal with bears in the wild.
Starting point is 00:56:56 And it reminded me, I grew up in Alaska and we also had to watch their safety videos in elementary school and middle school and high school. It was always the same video. I think it was from the 80 safety videos in elementary school, middle school, in high school, and it was always the same video. I think it was from the 80s or something. I don't remember what it was called, but we watched the same thing, you know, four or five times throughout our schooling. And part of it was about how to tell when a bear was being aggressive versus defensive, and there was one line in the video where the host said something like, if the, I I, I, I, I, I, I, if, if, if, if, if the the the the the the their, if their, if their, if their, if their, if their, I, I, I, I, I their, I their, I their, I their, I was, I was their, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was their, I was their, I was their, I was their, I their, I I I was their, I I was their, I I was their, I was their, I was their, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I'm their, I'm th.a, I'm thaugh, I'm tha, I'm tha, I'm going, I'm going, I'm tha, I'm their, I was, I was their, I was their,there was one line in the video where the host said something like if the bear starts eating you it is no longer
Starting point is 00:57:30 acting defensively and that was how you knew you were supposed to stop playing dead and start fighting back with if you were actively being consumed anyway love the show my normal country it's a normal way to live. Hot tip for our listeners, if you are currently being eaten by a bear, that is the time to start trying to get away from the bear. Is that true of all species of bear though? Yes.
Starting point is 00:58:00 Okay. If the bear is eating you, things have gone wrong somewhere somewhere online. Yeah, all right. Well, 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 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 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 that's that's that's that's that's that's that. that. that. that. that. that. that. th. th. th. that's that's th. th. th. that's th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the theean. the theanananananananananananneea. that's thiii. thi. eating you, things have gone wrong somewhere online. Yeah, all right, well that's good, you know, keep that in mind if you're in a sort of bear situation, that could be any kind of bear. Polar, brown, grizzly. Honestly, people, probably not a sun bear, because they are funny. Sun bears are very funny to me. Oh, the little Japanese ones. Yeah, I see them at the zoo, the zoo, the zoo, the zoo, the zoo, the zoo, the zoo, the zoo, thua th th good th good th good th th th th th th tho tho tho that's that's good that's good that's good that's good that's good that's good, that's good that's good that's good that's good that's good that's good, that's good, that's good, that's good, that's good, that's good, 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 that's that's that's that's than, that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's thate thate that that that that that that that that that that that to to to that to to. Oh the little Japanese ones. Yeah I see
Starting point is 00:58:26 them at the zoo sometimes and they just walk around doing their little funny faces. You see them at the zoo sometimes when you go to the zoo? When I go to the zoo? When you are sometimes going to the zoo? Both. You don't always see every animal every time you go to the zoo. I know? I do. I am a completionist. Well, you know what the problem is, is that you don't have kids, so you probably go to the zoo once a year max? You're telling me my fucking problem is I don't have kids? Telling you your problem when it comes to attending the zoo. Cambrous is so expensive, man. And that's why, so the the the the they they they th, they thu is thu is thu is so they thu, thu, thu, thu, thu, thu, thu, thu, thu, thu, thu, tho, tho, tho, thu, thu, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is, is tho, is thu, is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is thu is thu is thu is thu, thu is thi is the the the thi is the the the the that's that's thoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo, tob's pretty good though. That's why, so we have a family membership,
Starting point is 00:59:06 which means you can go as many times as you want. And when you can go as many times as you want, and when you can go as many times as you want, you can actually just duck down to the zoo for a little bit, you know? I guess you could do that. I feel like that might be weird as a single woman to just just pop down down down down down down down down down down down down the to to to to to the to to to to the to to to to the to to to to to the to to to to to to to to to to go to go to go to go to go to go to go as to go as to go to go to go to go to go to go to go to go as to go as to go as to go as to go as to go as to go as to go as to go as to go as to go as to go as to go as to go as to go as to go as to go as to go as to go as to go as to go as to go. to go to go. to go to go. to go to go to go as to go as the the to go as the to to to to to to to to too as to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the to go as the to go as the the the zoo every now and again. Oh, you can look, it's got an aquarium on there too and you can go go and like touch some starfish. Does. They got some big old fish in that aquarium. You can do that gigantic John Dory that's in there? Oh, it's horrifying. I hate it. Ugh. Sun bears aren't Japanese. I'd like to issue an apology. To the sunbears or to Japan? To the nation of Japan and also to friend of the show the sun bear. I've just put a halarctos Malayonus. I have just put a picture of some sun bears in the chat if you would like to see what they look like just strolling around.
Starting point is 00:59:56 And this is of course an audio medium so perhaps you'll just have to. Well I would like Lucy to describe the picture of a bear that I have just put in some chat. What is this in the chat? This bear is apologizing. This bear has been caught doing something not horrible but something embarrassing. Just did a big fart audibly and then you walked in and it's gone oh I didn't realize you was there Yeah, or this bear has also possibly been caught masturbating on his boss's desk He is completely naked so being a bear and not knowing clothes, but um that's how I've described this bear So like sun bears are they're just kind of skinny. They've got this fun little marking on their chest, and they just kind of cruise around on their back legs
Starting point is 01:00:46 looking really weird. And I like it. I'm into it. All right. Little goofy, goofy freaks. They got like a. They're weird. They got like a human's body.
Starting point is 01:00:57 I don't like it. Well, that and maybe like. I don't like this bear th. like, they're too thin for bears. I think, I think is maybe the issue. If you have time, if you're not currently driving a car, or if you are driving a car but no one can see you, maybe take out your phone and just Google Sun Bear, take a look some pictures, have a bit of fun, you know? And I believe that is about all we have time for on this episode of Buntavista, a podcast. It is one of them, yeah. Of all the podcasts in the world. It's one of them. Hey, thanks for choosing us.
