Starting point is 00:00:00 Hello and welcome to Buntavista episode 268. I'm Theo and I'm on this regional train heading into downtown Jakarta. I'm just a regular old guy, I'm got my suit on, got my job at the bank, BTPN. I'm just a regular old guy, I've got my suit on, got my job at the bank, BTPN. I've got a few clients under my wing. I think things are going pretty well for me, I think. You know, I haven't found love yet, but, no, that's sorry, that's not true. I've got my beautiful ginger cat at home. I was just sort of feeding her one day. She just sort of jumped up on my apartment, balcony, and she's never really left, you know.
Starting point is 00:01:13 It's sort of her house now. I just live there, you know. And with me on this train, on this beautiful day, heading into downtown Jakarta to start his day. It's Andrew. Andrew is a, he's a Dildo salesperson working at the downtown Dildo shop there. Sort of a meeting of two worlds, an odd couple situation between the two of us. Now we've kind of settled into a bit of a routine, a bit of a swing. Every day. You know, I'm on the train after him.
Starting point is 00:01:54 I come in and I find him on the train. We sit down, pull out a go-set, you know, get those little uh... little rocks rockin' uh... and we've got just a lot in common more than you'd think between a a banker and uh... do do do do salesman but you know we get there open up our uh... open up our lunch boxes compare what we got in there today Andrew? Big Dildo
Starting point is 00:02:25 shaped submarine sandwich? Nice. You know they're saying I'm supposed to take your work home with you but which of us which of us can avoid that? Now I remember the thing that we actually like that drew me to you in the first place sort of our personalities I would normally you know talk people on the train but um one day you were on there and you opened up the the to to to to the to to to to the to to the to to to the the to to the to to to the the to to the to to to to the to to to to to to to to to to to the the the the the to to to their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their.. their.. their.. their...

Mm-hmm, absolutely. Yeah. And also with us on this train headed to downtown Jakarta, is Ben Hammer Girl McLea. Now Ben, hey, how you going, first of all.
Starting point is 00:03:14 You've got, you got two hammers there, is that right? Yeah, that's true, yes. Yeah, correct. What you're up to with those hammers? You're not gonna start, you're not gonna start just hitting people with those hammers, are you? I mean I've got them. Yeah. It'd be ashamed of. Like you're not gonna injure us to death with those hammers. In a sort of hitting motion.
Starting point is 00:03:37 Can't put my curtain here for a little hot second. Why's the curtain so wet? This curtain's been getting wet over time. I think it's because I moisten my fingers before I grab the curtain to make sure I'm getting purchase on there. Like turning the page of a big book. Now, this introduction, it has the smack of specificity around it that usually would denote either, it's a misdirect in that we're being really specific about one thing that's kind of mundane so that you can do something wacky at the end or it has the smack of specificity that comes with it
Starting point is 00:04:16 being a reference to something sure I know I know what it is What are we talking about here? What is this? For once, for once. Me and Theo have both seen the same movie. We've both seen the same movie. We've both seen the rain two. The train to Jakarta. Yeah, now in this scene, uh, you, a lady who has two hammers, hammer girl, hammer girl starts killing people with her two hammers. Right, yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:49 I'm not sure if you need any more background on that. Haven't you? Is it similar in fashion to the raid worm? Uh, no. Oh. Oh. So it's not like just 90 minutes of fight scenes? No, it's like two hours. There's a good half hour in the middle of like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, th, like, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th. th. thi, thi, thi, thi, th. th. th. th. th. their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th. And, th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. tha. tha. tha. tha. tha. tha. tha. tha. tha. tha. tha. tha. tha, two hours, there's a good half hour in the middle
Starting point is 00:05:05 of there of like family drama and stuff and then picture this, the camera inside a train heading to downtown Jakarta. Yeah. People go on about their days playing go looking inside inside their lunch boxes, etc. And And then enter girl with two hammers. All right well I'll happily I'll happily close these curtains back up now because I feel like I can I feel almost like an Andrew who's in the middle of a primer introduction in a way. Did you watch a primer Andrew? No no yet. You should it's good maybe shame about the guy though don't give him any money you just pirate it. Yeah I've got these hammers. I'm gonna start. Did to to to to to to to to to the to the the to the the the the the the to the the the the the the the h ha. I'm happy. I'm happy. I'm happy. I'm happy. I'm happy. I'll happy. I'll happy.

I'm gonna start hitting people with hammers. Yeah, cool. Hey, can I, can I nominate myself? Can I nominate myself for a...
Starting point is 00:05:54 Not getting whacked with the hammer? Is that? No. No. Unfortunately, Andrew has copped the claw end of the hammer under his chin? Oh no. Yeah's kind of getting pulled around the train by his chin using the claw end of the hammer. I'll tell you this, I hate Mondays. It's a living. Yeah. Ah. Hey, I bet if you polled people, over 90% of respondents would say they don't want the claw end of a hammer
Starting point is 00:06:26 used to drag them around a room while it's inserted under their chin. Yeah, but we can't let them dictate to us, you know. Well, though, it's not like, we're... Oh, do you think this is a democracy in this train? I'm just saying it's not a popularity contest, that's all. It's time of course for the world thear the the tombosk will be thevk will be
Starting point is 00:07:20 the world the twi'n'liel today sworeen'est snowed forms therein'est twi'en trees, the woods and o'clock, the treathe, thee's the's the towards. I really like when it gets quiet for a second just before it comes back in, you know. It really tricks you that maybe we're actually out of theme time.
Starting point is 00:08:15 I'm actually going to do a live breaking poll instead of, well, just before we get it to the second one. Because I, to fill in the time while the poll report theme was playing, I was looking at some tweets, and I just saw a tweet from someone from a locked account, so I'll maintain their privacy. Today I learned people with penises wipe their asses standing up. Question mark? Did you learn that?
Starting point is 00:08:40 Now that's not a poll, but the poll is in the response to that tweet where they have said, be honest, people with penises, do you, dot, dot, dot. Now, only 521 votes are not necessarily it's not a very representative sample. Yeah, their polling methods are not robust. But 19.6% of respondents have said stand up to wipe. 59.7% of respondents have said stay seated to wipe. 15.9% have said combo. 4.8% have said neither. Am I to assume that the combo is like leaning over so that one leg is in contact with the seat and the other is not.
Starting point is 00:09:26 No, I assume you do some shitting on the toilet, some wiping, but you're going, I'm not going to get up yet because I know we're only at the midpoint of this journey. And then once you're finished, once you've pinched off the last train car on the way to stand up and you give it a give a little wipe. Just for, just to make sure that we're all on a level playing field here. So that's, that one in five respondents said that they stand up to wipe their ass after shitting. There's people with penises. We have three, three people with penises on this podcast. Yeah. Is anyone, is either of you standing up to wipe your ass. No. Okay, good. Jesus fucking Christ.
Starting point is 00:10:06 I was already sitting at this point. Yeah. I'm not going to make a fucking effort out of it. Getting up and walking around, you know. It's genuinely insane. Okay, I've finished shitting. Time to go mobile for this next phase. I'm there's laps. I there's yeah there's around the office. What happened
Starting point is 00:10:25 near us? I'll tell you this and look look look not absolutely not for the first time. I'm sorry if this is the first episode of this show that you've listened to. You started off with an absolutely inscrutable reference to an Indonesian action movie from how many years ago you got three immediately into a quick whip around the room to see how the hosts are wiping. I wouldn't say immediately. I think something happened before that. I don't think the journey took about three minutes. Not immediately, there was a several minute long rendition of the Polish National Anthem
Starting point is 00:10:58 first. And further apologies if you are the partner or friend of someone in a car who has played this for you. This is a no you love it. Yeah, gonna be honest this is a frequent type of apology that we make but all I was gonna say was yeah when so you're sitting down right and look I realized that that's that's not technically the prime position to be shitting from I believe I believe the squat toilet holds that that's not that's not technically the prime position to be shitting from. No. I believe the squat toilet holds that. The human body craves a squat and we have told it.
Starting point is 00:11:33 The human body craves a squat. And I believe it's much, much better for your intestinal health, your digestive health, all that kind of thing to be doing the squat style. But that's not the world I live the world, the w w woe, thoe, the woe, thoe, tho, tho, tho, tho, I tho, I tho, I tho, I tho, I tho, I tho, I'm, I'm tho, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm thi, I'm, I'm th, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I believe, I believe, I believe, I believe, I believe, I believe, I believe, I believe, I believe, I the th, I th, I th, I th, I tho, I the the the the the the tho, I the the the tho, I tho, I tho, I the tho, I the thi, I that, I that, I that, I'm that, I'm that, I believe, that, tho-s, tho-s, thoo-s' thooooooooooooooooooooo-s, I believe, I believe, I believe, I that, all that kind of thing, to be doing the squad style. But that's not the world I live in. The world I live in, we've got our regular western, Western toilets all around the place. But one of the advantages to sitting down is that you kind of, you kind of prime for that turn to come out of there. You stand up and those cheeks clap straight back together. And I think you are just introducing a layer of complication that absolutely doesn't need to be there if you are standing up and wiping it. That is wild to me.
Starting point is 00:12:10 It's out of control. People go on diamond black on wiping their asses. You don't have to. Absolutely baffling. One in five people out there. Again, not a representative scientific survey in any shape or fun. But that's still a, it's a big number to be to be th. th. It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a, th, th, th, th, th, th. It's a, th. th. It's a, 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. That, th. That, th. That, th. A, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, I, I, I, I, I, I, I's a, I's a, I's a, I's a, thi, thi.a, thi.a, that's a, that's a, that's a, a, that's a, a, thiolou.a.a.a. that's a, but it's still a, it's a big number, like, out of, that's a hundred people. That's a hundred freaks. That he's gone, yeah, he's brought out in his net. That's, oh, yeah. Actually, you know what? It's gone up to 578 votes and it's now 19.9%
Starting point is 00:12:42 Plus the comboers. How many people are in the combo category? Uh, there are 15.7% in the combo category. I count them as standing up wipers. Well, yeah, because if you're getting mobile before the entire act is done, you are an alien to me. We are talking a full one-third of people trying to minmax their shitty experience so they can get the last just as they reach the sink. I assume they throw the shitty piece of toilet paper in the shower for stomping later.
Starting point is 00:13:16 I think they do a no look over the shoulder throw. Yeah, I was more sort of picturing, standing up, wiping, pulling it up, doing a kind of, you know. I'm walking away from the toilet. Well, I'm thinking more like a kind of basketball, low shuffle, you go between the legs, and you turn around and do a jump fade away. Yeah, and you're looking for nothing but wet. Yeah nothing but wet.
Starting point is 00:13:49 What we all really want. Sorry about that. There is an actual poll there in the notes, Andrew if you want to go through that. Yeah, I guess let's get back to something normal folks. This is from a poll conducted by UGov. Are you going? 20, yeah, specifically. 100% of Benz believe. 20% sorry, 24% of Americans believe that they've seen a UFO.
Starting point is 00:14:20 66% say they haven't. The remaining 10% aren't sure if they've seen a UFO. Oh, I love that 10% so much. Have you seen a UFO? Maybe. Maybe you have, maybe I haven't. Maybe it's money a business. You know?
Starting point is 00:14:35 Who are you to ask? Of those? Well, maybe 10% of people have seen a UFO, but the alien said, could you do us a favor and just keep this between us? Yeah. It's high sharp. Respecting the aliens' privacy, you know? Yeah, if you see an alien, no you didn't. Hey, that's like that thing people say on the internet.
Starting point is 00:14:58 Yeah. So of the 24% of people who believe that they have seen a UFO, 34% believe it was aliens. 45% believe it was some sort of natural phenomenon. And 23% of people are unsure. So that leaves zero for planes or something. So that leaves 0 four planes or something. That's a natural phenomenon.
Starting point is 00:15:29 That would be identified. Yeah, we just call that a plane. 24% of people believing that they've seen a UFO. That seems quite high. That's one in four Americans is like, oh yeah, yeah, fuck yeah, dog. I've seen a UFO. But then it's only 34% of them who believe it was an alien though. So really, it's 24% of people think I saw something. I'm enjoying the number of people that are like, you know what?
Starting point is 00:15:55 What I saw in that sky? I don't quite know. Yeah, I like, um, 45% believe it was some sort of natural phenomenon. What are we talking here? Ball Lightning? St Elmo's Fire? What do they reckon they've seen? Probably one of those two. Yeah, probably it. That's very intriguing. So let's, I'm not really the numbers guy here,
Starting point is 00:16:15 that's more of a Theo job, but 34% of 24 bunch of old-timey guys gawking at ball lightning. Whoa, what the fuck is that? But that's like one in every 12, uh... One in every 12 Americans believes for certain they're seeing aliens. Yeah. That's pretty fucking cool. Yeah. That's pretty fucking cool. In my professional opinion? Yeah. That's awesome. Uh, however, we do have some bad news. Hmm. Because I know that's good news that the please has been greatly.
Starting point is 00:16:56 Thank you. To have his biases confirmed. And I love to bend to be pleased. That's right. Unfortunately, more Americans believe in aliens than in Bigfoot. Yeah, it's disappointing. That's very, I mean... So, this is for another poll here. How likely do you think it is that each of the following beings exist?
Starting point is 00:17:20 And the result is a percentage of a percentage of U.S. adult citizens. So the percentage of people who believe that the following beings definitely exist. Aliens, 24%? Holy shit. Which neatly lines up with the 24% of people who say what exists or... That's why they believe. Yeah. Eight percent believe that Bigfoot is real.
Starting point is 00:17:44 Definitely exists. So that's, you know, what, one in 12 or something like that Bigfoot is real. Definitely exists. One, so that's, you know, what, one in 12 or something like that? You get a whole bunch of people in a lineup. One of those people believes that Big Foot definitely exists. Well, that depends how many people are in your lineup, but yeah. 23% of people believe you probably exists. So, yeah, it probably is like, you know, it's better than a coin toss. Now we're getting a little confusing here with 6% of people believe the Yeti exists. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:17 And 19% believe that the Yeti probably exists. I'm, I'm gonna call foul on the polling method here because number one, number one you really, I think you could put those two in the same category. Yeah. Really, I mean, it's really hard to work out what the overlap of people who believe that they exist as distinct creatures or that they are separate. Also they're the same thing you know. Also like it makes you wonder if the the the the the the the they exist as distinct creatures or that they are separate. Also, they're the same thing, you know. Also, like, it makes you wonder if the poll results would have been any different between the question, do you believe the Yeti exists versus do you believe Yetis exist? Yeah. Because we're presupposing here that there is a singular Yeti.
Starting point is 00:19:02 Which is laughable. There's one big foot but thousands of Yetis, in my mind. So I think they've got it. I think they've got it backwards here. But really, in my mind, potentially, you've got some of the results for the Yeti should go towards Bigfoot. Yeah, I think so. I agree. Five percent of US adult citizens believe that the Loch Ness Monster definitely exists. And way down at 4%. Chupacabra. Yeah. But again, that's 21% of people think that Loch Ness Monster
Starting point is 00:19:39 which means in total, 26%. So one in four Americans are like, yeah, on balance. This is probably a Loch Ness monster. That's awesome. I love that. It's so beautiful. It's just a bunch of people walking around being like I've never been Scotland but. Walking around saying what it's something in there. All that water. Hey it's really deep. You know they used to have big odors in there and stuff. More likely than not there's a dinosaur in there. Yeah, I may not be an expert in, etc. etc. Yeah. All our water got to be something in it. Yeah. You know? Remember how like free communication all day everywhere was supposed to make us a less superstitious and more informed people? Yeah, the digital agora, the marketplace of ideas.
Starting point is 00:20:28 Yeah. Well, there is a market place. Off trading ideas. Yeah. I'll trade you one Bigfoot is real for one the Yeti is real. I'll happily take that. Uh, see, you would think that this opening up of the information superhighway, connecting all of these services to computers and such, would improve
Starting point is 00:20:55 the free exchange of information, but unfortunately, there are nefarious bodies out there, conducting rampant censorship at all times. I am of course talking about the dreaded DMV. It's time for Plate Watch. We've done this segment a couple times before where we have looked at both accepted theat to the tm. we have looked at both accepted and rejected custom number plate or vanity vanity plates as I believe the Americans would call them submissions. Now previously we've been talking about I think it was New Hampshire or whichever state it was that just would had like complete
Starting point is 00:21:40 free-for-all on what you could get and they could refuse nothing as long as it wasn't like racist I think? I can't remember, but I've recently been looking at posts from the very entertaining Twitter bot that tweets out California DMV plate submissions, which made me think, well, if they can do that, then clearly there must be a public database somewhere of plate submissions. And I had a look, and it turns out that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, th, th, thi, thi, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, I thi, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, 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, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, thi, thi, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, thi, like, their, I their, I their, like, if they can do that, then clearly there must be a public database somewhere of plate submissions. And I had a look, and it turns out that a random guy did some sort of Freedom of Information Act thing to California DMV looking for something else, and they just gave him the entire database
Starting point is 00:22:21 of submissions from 2015 to 2016 for custom number plates. And he... May as well. Why not? Yeah, here. Well, the to, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it. And, and it. And, and it. And, and it. And, and it. And, and it. And, and it. And, and it. And, and it. And, and it. And, and it. And, and it. And, and it. And, and it. And, and it. And, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it, and it to, and it to to to to to to to look, and it to look, and it to look to to look to to to to to to to look to to to to look, and it to look, and it to look, and it to look, and it, and it to 2016 for custom number plates and he may as well why not yeah well apparently it was cheaper for them to give him the whole thing than for them to spend time winnowing it down to what his request was so he's just put the whole thing up on GitHub so I yesterday went through 18,000 lines of an Excel document and I thought I would pick out some highlights of rejected the the the the the ttttod. 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 the the the the the the the. the the the their their their their their the. the. the the the the the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. their th. their their their their their their their their their their their their their their the.e.e.e.e.e.e.e.e.e.e.e. their their their their their theyy. Why. Why. Why. their their their their they. their their their their their their their their the Excel document and I thought I would pick out some highlights of rejected California DMV Vanity Plate submissions. Here we go. Meet man. the honky.
Starting point is 00:22:56 No questions. Da Honky. Oh, I wish that was me. Yeah. I don't know why, Andrew, but in my mind you are the man I picture in my head when I'm like, who has a car that just says, da Honky? God, that would be so good. That'd be what I generally, I generally think the cost of license by it's, wildly overpriced and I don't know why anybody's paying for them but if I could get a Dahonkey license but yeah rolling around it your outlander with tomkki is this the craziest white man ever
Starting point is 00:23:38 I have her suit spelt correctly. And look, to be honest, nothing offensive about that. Let him matter. No. The only note in there for the rejection was just the word hairy with a question mark. Yeah, that's a, I think that's a, justice has not been served there. Assmans. That's with a Z at the end.
Starting point is 00:24:10 Ask but. That's a toufer? No farts. No farts. Couldn't be me. Nope. Well then maybe the next one is for you. I got gas.
Starting point is 00:24:27 Yes. I then have F-R-T space-I-G. And the explanation that the customer provided for what it meant was, it's what I love doing, quotes, farting. Beautiful, that's nature baby. Dank hog. Oh, oh. Big sack.
Starting point is 00:24:57 P. I have one RT-N-U-T, one right nut. I honestly think the world would be a better place if they could drive around with these, with these license plates. Uh, dog balls? P. P. Ha. L.
Starting point is 00:25:28 Gouch. Keeping thing south of the border. Signor Gooch. 12 v. cum. 12 v. cum. 12 volt cum. Kind of frightening. What's the rationale for this one?
Starting point is 00:25:52 They didn't provide one. There was nothing in the field. A beautiful mystery. At least you know it probably wouldn't kill you. Well, I mean, depending on the current, I guess. Dr. Stank? Ha ha ha ha ha. Sorry, I just rewind a little bit.
Starting point is 00:26:11 Yeah, the voltage is going to dictate the current, so. Okay, yeah. Yeah. Amps? What are those? Yeah. Yeah, that's the current. Yeah, the current is a product of the voltage and the resistance. Yeah, but we don't know what the the resistance. What the resistance the resistance the resistance the the resistance is the's the current. Yeah, okay. But current is a, yeah, it's a product of the voltage and the resistance. Yeah, but we don't know what the resistance is, so.
Starting point is 00:26:28 Well, it's just for a person, it mainly stays the same. Depends where the cum is applied. If the cum is applied, like just splashed directly on my heart, like, mid-surgery surgery. God, the doctor's juggling his... Nutri-bullet cup full of 12-volt come. And the whole thing landed on the heart. He might be in some trouble. Yeah, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:26:56 But otherwise you'd think you'd probably be fine. Yeah. Great. Axe dock. Hmm. Spelled exactly how you would think. And then, Andrew, I've got another one that I think you might like to have in your family maybe. This one is M-I-L-F-M-Y. That is Milf Money. Damn. Yeah. Interesting. And if you don't know why that's relevant, I'm just going to leave that ambiguous.
Starting point is 00:27:24 I have. Kiwi 69. I have gay 69. I have angry 69. I have angry 69. Oh, you don't want that. No. This 69 sucks. I'm 69 sucks. I have penis 69.
Starting point is 00:27:51 The customer justification provided for this one was simply my nickname. My friend's called me penis 69. Hey, it's your mate. Penis 69. Now,'s your mate. Penis 69. Now, the justification provided for this next one is, quote, I and my family are from Pound Wisconsin. That number played is Pound Town. Ha ha.
Starting point is 00:28:20 It's legit. Let him have it. Yeah, so the DMV note on this one was Pound Town, Sexual, but there is a pound Wisconsin. Giving them a little bit of credit while still putting the big rejected stamp on it. Yeah. The justification for this next one is, it's my son's nickname. The number plate is P-H-A-T-C-O-K, fat cock. Uh-huh? Mm-hmm. We'll always run around calling us on that.
Starting point is 00:28:58 Hey, fat cock. Hey, that's that song. Fat cock, hey. This number plate is SHLONG. That is SHLLL-O-N-G. The justification provided is my profession, my first initial and last name, Sheriff Leonard Long. I have, sorry, the justification for this one is, quote, you can do it. The number plate is, you can't, is you C, U, C, U, N, T. I've got a little forfear here for you. I have F space C-A-N-C-R, F, Cancer, fuck cancer. I have F-space C-4 N-C-R, again, fuck cancer.
Starting point is 00:29:58 I have F-space lupus, which I guess... Similar sentiment. I then have F space pianos. All right, that's, we're getting specific now. Now, as we've experienced with the previous ones, the section of number plates that started with OMW2 was extensive, so I picked some highlights for you here. I'm got OMW2FUK, that's quite obviously on my way to fuck. I have OMW2 FYW, which I think is probably on my way to fuck your wife or, you know, similar. probably on my way to fuck your wife or you know it's similar and that I've got
Starting point is 00:30:47 OMW to GYG which as we all know is on my way to Guzman and Gomez that they were t. That was rejected, yeah. They were trying to guess what it stood for in the notes. They're like, it's something your girl. I know it. Yeah. Uh, no, it's, it's Guzman, Guzman. Guzman, egos, that's right.
Starting point is 00:31:18 I have two more for you. So the customer justification provided for this one is celebration of my son moving out of the house. That number plate is dick out. Oh, I'm really enjoying the absolutely lackluster effort being put into try to justify these. Really phoning it in, expecting just a light touch from the California DMV. I have actually come out of this with a profound respect for the people whose job this is because like they do extensive research into it. Like they won't let, uh, they won't let anyone with the number plates, anything with the number 88 in there obviously because that's the Nazi thing, but also, like, like, the the, th..... th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, 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, th 88 in there obviously because that's the Nazi thing but also 14 for the Nazi thing like yeah all sorts of things
Starting point is 00:32:09 there. The last one I have for you the customer justification provided is it means one day I will go to the World Series of Poker. Now do you guys want to take a guess at how you would do that in like the seven, seven characters you have available to you. To the World Series of Poker. Yeah, it's obviously hard to, to express in a short amount of characters so they have gone for Daigo whop. It doesn't really seem like it's that. Do they call the World Series of Poker the WOP? Do they just drop the WOP? Do they just drop the S-O-P? Seems like it would be the WSOP, doesn't it?
Starting point is 00:33:07 It does, doesn't it? One day, I will go into the World Series of Poker. I'm not sure of poker. Oh boy. I can't believe they didn't get that one past the senses. Yeah. Weird. Probably some kind of anti-poca description.
Starting point is 00:33:28 Yeah, that's probably what it is. They probably just got the wrong, the wrong person at the DMV. Probably good that they rejected that one. Yeah, probably. You would be shocked at the number of that level of racial slurs that were submitted. They're just getting through, huh? Yeah. Maybe you should do a freedom of information request to the California DMV. I'll try and get a more modern list. Yeah, just be like I need one license plate from each year. If you're listening to this and you're familiar with California's freedom, actually no your state, if you're listening to this

I don't know, these ones have been quite hard to throw it together. Yeah I gotta say, uh, ooh, ooh, uh, yep, oh, no, no, oh, hmm. Plates, that's something that humans use. And it turns out that other animals also use types of tools. It's time for Nature Corner.
Starting point is 00:35:55 Country Roads, take me home to the place I belong, Bulte-to-a-sum, nature corner, rubber crab, sniffed my dick. Oh, what are we in for? It's... We're entering the chimps zone. I have been, uh, I have been watching some Planet of the Apes stuff recently, so this story is probably gonna get me pretty scared. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:37 So, you know, just please send out your, your vibes of support to me. Please, where are you- Where are you up to me. Please mentally support me at this time. Where are you up to in the series? I re-watched the Tim Burton one, which on reflection, I enjoy his like ridiculous sci-fi sets and all that sort of stuff. And then just sort of starting off on the original one. I haven't dipped into the Andy Circus one again,
Starting point is 00:37:10 but just starting off on the Charlton Heston one. Yeah, fuck here. You're in for such a wild, wild ride. So, this is a press release from Washington University in St. Louis. Confusing, but whatever. Evidence of social relationships between chimpanzees and gorillas. It's over for us. This is how it starts. That's it.
Starting point is 00:37:37 That's it. I don't know how powerful they are together. Oh, it means they're going to have all the bases covered. They're going to have like agility plus tanks. You know, in the X-Men, how Colossus and Wolverine will do the fastball special where Colossus throws Wolverine. This is exactly what I was exploring. Well, that chimps very far away from me and I'm up high.
Starting point is 00:37:59 Oh no! Hearing from a distance. Oh, Oh! Ah! Can anyone hear the Doppler effect? Chim scream? Shit! Is it be Dopplering a chimp? A long-term study led by primatologist Cricket Sands.
Starting point is 00:38:20 Wow. Wow. I'm going to spell that name out because I have never seen that name before in my life, and it's very cool C-R-I-C-E-T-T-E, Cricket. That kicks AS. Krakets Sands at Washington University in St. Louis for some reason reveals the first evidence of lasting social relationships between chimpanzees and gorillas in the wild. Drawn from more than 20 years of observations at Nua Bele
Starting point is 00:38:52 Ndoki National Park in the Republic of Congo, research has documented social ties between individual chimpanzees and gorillas that persisted over years and across different contexts. The research was conducted by scientists from Washington University, the Wildlife Conservation Society, the University of Johannesburg, yuck, Lincoln Park Zoo, and is reported in the journal Eye Science. I used to just put a little eye in front of everything. Yeah, that's how you know it's modern. Yeah, there's an app for that.
Starting point is 00:39:31 Quote, an example of what we found might be one individual traveling through a group of the other species to seek out another particular individual, she said. I love that. I love that so fucking much. Just you would have seen Dave? Hey, hey, don't mind me. Hey, hey, hey. There he is. The big fellow himself. What's up? Cricket continues. We were also able to document such interactions over time and in different contexts in this study. Most people do not realize that the majority of remaining gorillas and chimpanzees reside together. The large tracts of
Starting point is 00:40:09 forest in the Congo Basin are a conservation stronghold not only for these two kinds of endangered great apes but also forest elephants, leopards, and many other species. That's right. Upwards of four species in the Congo basin. I am delightfully intrigued by forest elephants. That's just cool. You hear a rustling up high. It's a hard time. You look above you to realize too late,
Starting point is 00:40:34 you're being stalked by a forest elephants. In a review of published reports combined with a synthesis of previously unpublished data about daily follows of chimpanzees and gorillas from 1999 to 2020 in the guillugo triangle, scientists documented ape species engaging in a wide range of social interactions, ranging from play to aggression. Oh, I was kind of hoping that it would range from something to sucken each other off. Range from sucking to fucking? Yeah. I can see why you would hope that. Theo quietly disappointed that the nature story doesn't involve a gorilla sucking off a chimp. They might just be doing mutual masturbation. We don't know.
Starting point is 00:41:23 Look we've established on this show good luck luck finding that gorilla's dick, you know? Yeah. Research has investigated several possible benefits of these interspecies rendezvous, including protection from predation, improved foraging options and other social benefits from information sharing. Oh no, they're going to start information sharing information sharing and it's all gonna go downhill for them. Yeah. Just look what the internet's done for us. You know those, you know those humans.
Starting point is 00:41:53 Their weak point is their face and suddenly the apes know. You just pull that thing right off. Just looking at the hands. Ah! Ah! They're all sitting around together going, uh, uh, and doing the motion that Nicholas Cage does in face off when he says face off. What a line rating. I mean pulling his face off, you know? What a movie.
Starting point is 00:42:20 What a movie. God. Tell us what it says on the tin. Face-off remake, where the catalyst is several people having their faces removed by a team of gorillas and chimps. Yeah. One of the key theories that has been suggested for why apes might choose to associate with members of different species is to avoid predators. But information gathered in this study suggests these social interactions can't be chalked up to threat reduction.
Starting point is 00:42:49 The scientist found hanging out. It's just palling around. It's the same way that, you know, you can't just chalk it up to threat reduction as to why an orangutan is hanging out with Kalineaswood in a truck. That's true. Although, yes he's safer from predators in the truck. Yes, but no cans of beer out there in the wild, you know? Hey, and if you're under 30, go fuck yourself. Uh, if you're under 30, please explore some cinema of previous eras. For example, any which way but loose.
Starting point is 00:43:27 And the sequel, any which way but something else. Hmm. In which way but over there. Instead, uh, oh, sorry, the scientists found little support for the idea that chimpanzees or gorillas are associating to decrease leopard, snake, or raptor predation attempts. You reckon, are they, raptors big enough to take a chimp? Or just a little chimp, I guess.
Starting point is 00:43:56 I think maybe, maybe they just don't like getting like part of their skull removed by a raptor, even if it doesn't kill them? I, I, I, I was, I was, I was watching, I was watching, I was watching, I was watching, I was watching, I was watching, I was watching, I was watching, I was watching, I was watching, I was watching, I was watching, I was watching, I was watching, I was watching, I was it doesn't kill him. I was watching a chimpanzee documentary with the kids recently called chimpanzee and it was it was narrated by Tim Allen and so he got to do like some he got to do some home improvement noises yeah you know there was a part where the chimps are like using rocks to or like like logs to crack open seeds and the chimps are like using rocks to, or like, like, logs to crack open seeds, and then one of them goes and gets a big rock. And Tim Allen's like, now we're talking power tools.
Starting point is 00:44:37 So the documentary made both of the kids cry. It made the first kid cry when the baby chimps mother was killed during a clan war between chimps and then later on in the movie the baby chimp which has been like you know put on the outs from the rest of the the troop of chimpanzees winds up in what is according to the documentary and absolutely freak occurrence Is adopted by the solo Alpha male Chimp of the troop who then just starts acting like a mother to the little chimp and let him let's him climb on his back, you know, run around
Starting point is 00:45:19 And then the other kid turned to me with tears running down her face and said Why a documentary is so sweet? Oh, oh. Um, but I'm pretty sure there was a scene in that where there's a bunch of baby chimps all fucking around and playing and having fun, cracking all the branches on a tree and then suddenly a, uh, and suddenly something swoops thrown and just takes one of the baby chimps and disappears. You'd hate to have that happen as a parent. Yeah, and then Tim Allen's like, this is a real wake-up call for John O' the Chimp or whatever the fuck they're called him, you know. You need to start tying weights to your baby chimps.
Starting point is 00:45:58 Putting a rope at a kettle bell on each of your babies. Oh, instead, enhanced foraging opportunities seem to be more important. The researchers found that co-feeding at the same time represented 34% of the inter-specific associations that they documented with another 18% of observations involving apes foraging in close spatial proximity but on different foods. Just sounds like you've observed multiple groups of people using the same restaurant, you know? Yeah. Yeah. Except some of them like...
Starting point is 00:46:34 They're co-foraging. Eating only the bacon bits at the Pizza Hut salad. Yeah. While everyone else is eating the little bits of Caesar salad. And there's me, just eating bowl after bowl of the mini marshmallows. Oh man, once you get to the dessert portion, it's over for you, fools. Is that a whole bowl full of jelly? Yeah, it is. I don't know if, I don't know if this is like an age related thing or a metabolism related thing or something, but we, we took the kids to a buffet a little while ago, like an improbably large buffet.
Starting point is 00:47:15 And we got in there and like I had one normal size plate of food and then I was like, I'm done. Yeah, I, yeah. There is no value for money for me at a buffet. I mean, there's no value for money in a buffet for anybody, I think. No, it's... But it's on a sliding scale, right? Oh, no, sorry, Ben. My contention is that the buffet is a poor,
Starting point is 00:47:41 poor value for money for everyone involved in the enterprise from the people putting on the buffet. Oh sure. Are you saying it's so stacked against you? The buffet always wins. But the buffet? But then they throw out all the fucking food. Like surely at the end of the evening, they go, well here's, you know, heat tray after heat tray of food that didn't get eaten into the dumpster, You go. You're saying that you should should, surely, surely, surely, s you should the people, s you should the people, s you should the people, the people the people the people the people the people the people the people the people. the people, the people, the people, the people eating the people eating, the people eating, the people, the people, the people, the people eating, the people, the people eating, the people, the people, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, eating, the people, the people, the people, the people, the people, the people, the people, the people, the people, the people, the people. the people. the people, the people. the people, the people, the people. the people, the people, the people, the people, the people, their, their people, their, their, their people eating, their, s-e, s-s, their people eating, their people eating, their, their people eating, their, their, their, their people, thetray after heat tray of food that didn't get eaten into the dumpster you go. You say that you should be able to show up at like 15 minutes before the buffet closes and that's that's wild out time. You got you got 15 minutes. Fuck that's not a bad idea. That's not a bad idea. Sizzle I know you're mostly out of business but it's yeah it's like it's half price. It's half price and and it's and and it's and it's that it's that it's that it's that it's that it's that it's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's kind it's that's kind it's kind it's kind it's kind it's kind it's kind it's kind it's kind it's kind it'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 not that's not that's not that's not that's not that's not that's not that's not that's not that's not that's not that's not that's not that's not that's not that's not that's not that's not that's not that's not that's not that's not that's not that's not that's not that's not that's not that's not that's not that's not that's not that's not that's not a that's not a th I's not a th I's not a th I's not a that's not a that's not a that's not a that's not a that's not a that's not a that's, but it's, yeah, it's like, it's half price. It's half price and, and it's kind of like, you know that, you know that American Game
Starting point is 00:48:30 Show supermarket sweeps or whatever it is? Where they give you a trolley, you just have to rush through and sweeping things off the shelves and everything. Basically that. And then at the end, they just, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, thi, thi, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, they, they they they they they they thi, they, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi's, thi's, thean, thean, thean, thean, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, then at the end they just get like one of those sort of big squeegees on the end of a mop handle and take it through there. No carpet, no carpet in this joint at all. No, it's a web room. They've got the, they've got like the curved, the curved vinyl in the corners, like in
Starting point is 00:49:02 hospital rooms. Yeah, so I really get that squeege from. You can't bring the weapons the weapons the weapons the weapons 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 tho- tho- tho-up tho-upo-up tho-upi-upi-upi-upi-upi-upi-upi-upi-upi-upi-upi-s, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. And, th. And, th-a-a-a-a-a-a-s, thi-s, thi-s, thi-s, tho-s, tho-s. tho-s. tho-s-s. thoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo-s. And, like in hospital rooms. Yeah, I think I really get that squeegee from... You can't bring any weapons with you, but improvised weapons made on site are completely okay. I mean, you look at a buffet chair. Yeah. That thing, fold it up, snap it down. If you are... If you are... Someone away from the fucking baked potatoes. If you can get the, get the bone out of like the, one of the the the like the one of the big roasts, snap it off at an angle. Handy weapon right there.
Starting point is 00:49:29 Yeah, use it to kind of get in the cheek of another one, of someone, you know, in front of the boiled eggs or whatever, pull them away. Take some of the skewers from the chocolate fountain, fashion yourself some armor. I'm starting to feel like insurance on this venture is starting to get a bit expensive. Maybe there's a reason why they don't do this. Maybe, but that's none of my business. So, in addition to a greater diversity of interactions that previously documented among Simpatrick apes, I love that word.
Starting point is 00:50:10 That's such a great fucking word. I don't know what it means. I think it just means happening in the same place. The definition of Sympatric is, yes, one, occurring in the same area. Two is occupying the same geographical range without loss of identity from interbreeding Sim Patrick's species. Or, it could be a video game where you play out the life of my friend Chev, because his name is Patrick.
Starting point is 00:50:39 Sim, Sim Patrick. It's like Sim Earth or Sim Ant. Or SimCity? Yeah, I get it. Sim Hospital, Sim Tower. That's all the ones I can remember. What other Simm games are there? The Sim Helicopter?
Starting point is 00:50:56 Do you already say Sim the Simmant? I think that was the first one. Yeah. You're going alphabetically. Yes. I think actually they call the Sims in Germany? Das Sims? The Sims? Ders Sims.
Starting point is 00:51:09 The Sim. The Sim's. This is having a lovely, relaxing night playing. The baby is in a swimming pool. That is good. The study revealed social relationships for being members of different species that persisted over years. For example, study authors noted that on several occasions of food sources,
Starting point is 00:51:39 they observed young gorillas and chimpanzees seeking out particular partners to engage in bouts of play. So cool. Gonna get you. These types of interactions may afford unique development opportunities that extend the individual's social, physical, and cognitive competencies. Quote, no longer can we assume that an individual ape social landscape is entirely occupied by members of their own species, said co-author, Jake Funkhouser, a doctoral candidate of biological anthropology at Washington University. Now that's true. An individual ape social landscape is not entirely occupied by members of their own species.
Starting point is 00:52:20 Sometimes it's Ronald Reagan. And if you're under 30, forget about. I am actually sick of people assuming that an individual ape social landscape is entirely occupied by members of their own species. It's actually, it's kind of naive. Grow up. Grow up. The fuck up. Uh, boy, Ben, you've just, you've really... Grow up. Grow the thuck up. Boy, Ben, you've just, you've really run these together in a way that makes them incredibly difficult to work you away from one to the other. Hey, I've never made it easy on purpose, and I've also not made it hard on purpose.
Starting point is 00:53:07 Uh, hey, once those chimps and apes start working together and develop more advanced tools, we're in for a world of trouble, because God knows that we have produced enough dangerous tools of our own. It's time to check in on Scamwatch. BONG. It's from WKTV. Wook-to-the-in-New York. Man claims he was paid $21,000 for 3D printed guns at New York Attorney General's buyback event in Utica.
Starting point is 00:53:49 Oh, I've heard about this one. That's not good. A man who identified himself only as KEM. Hmm So confused Barbie what you say your name was? I think that's how Americans pronounce cam Kim Kim Saw people tweeting about using 3d printers to make guns for the sole purpose of selling them for big bucks at gun buyback Programs like the one the New York State Attorney General's office held at the Utica Police Department last month He got to work on a $200 3D printer he got for Christmas.
Starting point is 00:54:28 Quote, I 3D printed a bunch of lower receivers and frames for different kinds of firearms, said Kem, then he drove six hours to Utica. And he sees the toatoat and says, how many firearms do you have? And I said, 110," said Kemp. This began a haggling and negotiating session with the Attorney General's office staff that lasted all day long. Fuck. Quote, and it ended with the guy and the lady from the budget office finally coming around with the 42 gift cards and counting them in front of me, said Kem.
Starting point is 00:55:01 $21,000 in $500 gift cards. Oh my God. This guy fucking sucks. This seems like a poor use of everyone's time. Like I'm happy for you and you're fucking 21 grand in gift cards, you prick. Motherfucker. It'd be funny if they were like all for the iTunes store. Yep. What are you doing with that, like all for the iTunes store. Yep.
Starting point is 00:55:25 What are you doing with that? You know? They're only for Ralph's or whatever the fuck. They got too many supermarkets over there. I don't know what they got in New York. Whole foods. Yeah, they probably got that's right. A few weeks ago, News Channel 2 contacted the state attorney general's office asking if they if they might be happening. They didn't answer the question, responding only, that the Utica
Starting point is 00:55:50 gun buyback program was a big success and the program in general keeps New York families safe. Yes, we've seized six million guns. Yeah, we took 110 guns off the street that had been on the street for six hours. Quote, I'm sure handing over 21, $21,000 in gift cards to to to to to to to to to to to to to to some to some to some to some to some to some to some to some to some to some to some to some to some to some guns off the street that had been on the street for six hours. Quote, I'm sure handing over $21,000 in gift cards to some punk kid after getting a bunch of plastic junk was a rousing success, laughed Kem, the piece of shit. Quote, gun buybacks are a fantastic way of showing number one that your policies don't work and number two, you're creating perverse demand. You're causing people to show up to these events and they don't actually reduce crime whatsoever, said the cause of the problem. Someone made me show up here with a hundred and thirty guns that I just made. These laws that made me a cunt do some cunt behavior and I'm sick of them. Yeah real real, uh, real shaky on the whole cause and effect issue here. I mean, this dude is, is, yeah, that's, that's not, no one's making you do
Starting point is 00:56:55 that. No, it created a perverse incentive and this pervert acted on it. Fucking asshole. Yeah, oh man, this sucks because people are just going in there and wasting their time and taking money for nothing, said the man who wasted all their time and took money for nothing. And like, for this dickhead, all you have to do is put a little asterisk on there to say if this gun was 3D printed, then we will crush it and you. Yeah. Yeah. We'll make you hold on to the gun while we crush it. Yeah. Done, sort it.
Starting point is 00:57:31 Yeah, I don't care for that at all. Utica Police referred all questions to the Attorney General's office. A statement sent from a spokesperson at the Attorney General's office on Wednesday, said, it's shameful that this individual exploited a program that has successfully taken taken taken taken taken taken taken taken taken taken taken taken taked taked taked 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 th. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. th. th. th. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the then. theanan thean thean thean. thean. thean. thean. theanthat this individual exploited a program that has successfully taken thousands of guns off the street to protect our communities from gun violence. We have partnered with local police throughout the state to recover more than 3,500 guns, and one individual's greedy behavior won't tarnish our work to promote public safety. We have adjusted our policies to ensure that no one can exploit this program again for personal gain. It's it's also funny that this guy's just like, oh I assume everyone else is doing this and that's like, yeah. There's thousands of guns handed in they're all
Starting point is 00:58:16 3D printer just like mine. If it's possible to do a scam I assume everybody else is doing it too. Yeah. Are we gonna try and rate this one? Oh, well, all right. Successiness? I guess. I guess. You got a 10 for that. Victiminess.
Starting point is 00:58:37 Now look, normally, I think normally we would kind of say, um, that if you are scamming like a large corporate entity or something like that, that's the kind of victimless end of the scale for us. But instead you're scamming a government entity, which means that you are just taking taxpayer money, which is money that they got from just all the regular Joe's around you. And money that wasthey got from just all the regular Joe's around you. And money that was theoretically supposed to be being used for something good? Yeah, it's taken it out of that program. I think it's got to be smack bang in the middle there, right?
Starting point is 00:59:17 Because it's not causing someone to go bankrupt. Yeah, not stealing money from it... Kind of shitty at the same time. Yeah, not stealing money from like an individual old lady, but it's still very shit. Yep. Yeah. Um, like originality? Zero. Oh, he's tole this idea of someone else.
Starting point is 00:59:37 So zero. And bullsiness, there was like no risk. Yeah, we can't buy those guns from it. Yeah I guess, I guess, you know, I think it takes a certain amount of chutzpah to roll up and like demand that like haggle all day for money. Instead of, I think if you turned up and they said, we'll give you $100 for that pile of shit there, you should be like, okay, got $100. Which, you know, is that a loss? Only 200, oh no, he got it as a Christmas present,
Starting point is 01:00:16 so I guess he'd still be up. He's still playing with the materials cost or anything. Oh yeah, he's paying for the filament or whatever the fuck. He's got to drive to Utica for 12-hour round trip and the way Joe Brandon's making bloody gas prizes at the moment. He's getting slugged at the Bowser a couple of times. That's one of the last places I want to be slugged. Yeah. I fucking hate this guy. What a... What an asshole. There's a bunch of like gun blogs and websites that are like, this man is history's greatest genius.
Starting point is 01:00:51 He's the Napoleon of taking public money in a way it was not intended to be used. But if you were like... I don't know, if you were... As many, many gun owners want to bleat about publicly at a great volume all the time, hey, we're all responsible gun owners who are just out here trying to do the right thing. We're just regular citizens with a hobby.
Starting point is 01:01:16 Is it a crime to have a hobby? It's like, if you're someone, and again I would say if you are someone who is actually in that position and not just saying that as default rhetoric for your shitty positions or whatever, if you actually believe that, then theoretically you should be a person who can afford to have the guns that you own and they're registered and, you know, you keep them in a safe at home and all that sort of stuff. My understanding of this type of program is that's a safe at home and all that sort of stuff. My understanding of this type of program is that it's saying we will give back a decent chunk of money to you young person on the street who's not supposed to have that gun.
Starting point is 01:01:58 Yeah. We're going to get this dangerous stuff off the streets. Yes. You have a... And give you some of the money back so you can go and then spend it in turn on like throwing knives or something. Well I'm assuming that the point is like hey maybe you bought this gun illegally on the street for like $200 and we'll give you $500 to give it to us and take it away and then you haven't lost any money you got something out of it there was an incentive for you to come and do it. I'm assuming that's that's that's that's that's th. I's th. I'll th. I'll th. th. I'll th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. I'll thii. I'll thi. I'll thi. I'll thi. I'll thi. I'll thi. I'll thi. I'll thi. I'll their their their their their their their their the the the the point. I'll the point. I'll the point. I'll the point. I'll the the point. I'll the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the they. I'll they. I'll they. I'll the. I'll the. I'll the. I'll thean. I'll thean. I'll thean. I'll thean. I'll thean. I'll thean. I'll to come and do it. I'm assuming that's the point of it. Because if it was just like we will buy your gun off you for less than you bought it for, I don't really see what the point would be to anybody.
Starting point is 01:02:34 But again, the point is I'm sure that you're trying to get like illegally obtained unregistered firearms off the street and out of the hands of like, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I the the the th, I, I, I, I, I th, I th, I th, I th, I th, I the, I the, I the, I'm, I'm, I'm, the, thi, the, the, thin, thin, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, the, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, the, the, the, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi, thi, thi, thi, thithe hands of like, I don't know, irresponsible people or whatever. So if you are somebody who, you know, purportedly supports gun ownership and stuff, you should be thinking this guy is shit. Yeah. Unless you are a gun rights person whose whole thing is just being anti-government. Huh, that wouldn't. That never happened. That wouldn't go on. Yeah. Surely not. Anyway, this week's crime watch,
Starting point is 01:03:10 crime pass, is you can run this guy over with a car. Yep. If you see Kem on the streets, if you are anywhere in a large public place in like upstate New York or whatever the fuck and you yell out Kim, and a guy turds around that's the guy there's no other Kim's wandering around yeah and we don't mean that in like the bad pru McSween way we mean it in the funny way some good guys with good politics on a podcast way yeah we mean it in
Starting point is 01:03:41 the funny rev up your key of Serento to give him a fright yeah well someone else is kios a thor-it could be it could it it it it it it it it it it it it it there it there it there it there it there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there's there's there's there's there's there's there's there's there's there there's there's there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there th th th th the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the up your key of Serranto, give them a fright. Yeah, or someone else's key of Serranto. It could be anyways. And that is an episode of the podcast, Buntavista. I should put that story in the middle I think. You know, we had some some funny number plates, some stuff about UFOs, some chimp friendship. Then we ended on the one with the guy who's an asshole. One day we'll figure this out. Should we, should we end with a positive vibe by announcing a live show? Oh, that's a great idea, Andrew. Hey, what an idea?
Starting point is 01:04:17 Hey! Anybody want to do that? Oh, sure. Yeah, we're doing our first ever live show and we're doing it in beautiful Gimpy Queensland, the gem, the shining gem of Southeast Queensland. We're doing it as part of the Heart of Gold International Short Film Festival. We are on the Friday night, which is October 28th. We're at 6 p.m. at the loft. There are about 40 or 50 tickets left at the time of recording so if you you want to go, you should the the the the th you should probably the the the the th you should probably the the the th. the th. the the thoom th. thoom th. to to to they. to to to to to to to to their the their to be the the the to be to tooome.

There's some accommodation options in Gimpy. It's about a two and a half hour drive from Brisbane if you wanted to try that way. I know that in our discord people have been talking about carpooling and stuff, so that's probably
Starting point is 01:05:01 worth jumping in on those conversations. If you want to hang out with some strangers you would probably get along with. It's also a lovely train that goes from Brisbane and Gimpy, is well worth looking into. But yeah, it should be good. We're going to be doing, um, in line with the theme of the film festival. We're going to be doing an ordinary episode of the podcast, Buntivista but with an attempt to find mostly positive stories. And we'll see whether that is actually possible. It's going to be hard to do the shipping report positively, but I believe we could find a way. Yeah. But yeah, we'd love to see there. It'd be really nice. It'll be our first time doing this because we had to cancel the other one because of the novel coronavirus. It's happened before. Maybe there will be a way for this show 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 thus thus thus thus thus thi thi thi to to to to to to to thi thi to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to that is th is th is th th th th th th th th th is th th is th is th is th is th th th th th to to to to to to to to to to to to th th thi thi thi thi thus. thus. thus. thus. thus. thus. thus. to to to to to to to to to thus. to to to to to to thus. thus. thus. thus. thus. had to cancel the other one because of the novel coronavirus.

Starting point is 01:05:52 Gimpy sliding off the map in a mudslide or whatever from whatever floods coming up. Yep. Anyway, if you are within geographical range of beautiful Gimpy, head over to heart of gold.com..a you. Buy a little ticket. And let us know if you're one of the people coming down to Gimpy instead of going up to Gimpy. So far I think it's just Cowl, but I'd love to hear about people that are from further north in Queensland coming. That'd be nice. Love the city.
Starting point is 01:06:21 Wonderful. Well, see you next to see. Wonderful. Well, see you next time, everybody. Bye-bye. you to be
