Starting point is 00:04:22 Yeah. Turns out I forgot about 11th president James K. Polk. Wow. Here's the thing, though. Yeah. Before all you assholes looked it up to make sure I was wrong or not, did you know of James K. Polk? I feel like I heard of him a long time ago and then forgot about him again. That's what I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:04:43 Before I said with a firm there's no P president, and then you all him again that's that's what i'm saying before i said with a firm there's no p president and then you all went to google and googled p president did you know james k please allow me to enlighten you what did james k polk do exactly um well mexican-american war uh american war he built the trains really that's nothing really do we use trains did we get mexico out of that war no we got a bunch of southern states like arizona nothing happens in arizona all people go there yeah if james k polk were alive today he'd be in arizona all i'm saying is oh and he fought over oregon and what is oregon giving? Hipsters. Yep, that's all it's given us. Nothing but hipsters. Hipsters and a weird
Starting point is 00:05:27 state name. You know what else he did in 1846, according to Wikipedia, which I'm looking at now? He gave lower tax rates to the South. He was in favor of slavery. Wow! So there you go. All of you James K. Polk fans, you like a slave driver
Starting point is 00:05:43 who didn't win Mexico and gave us hipsters. Wow. You're K. Polk fans, you like a slave driver who didn't win Mexico and gave us hipsters. Wow. You're welcome. He's no Lincoln. He's no Lincoln. He's no Lincoln. He's James K. Polk. He doesn't even have Lincoln logs.
Starting point is 00:05:55 He's got like polka dots. Polk has been called the least known consequential president. You know why no one knows him? Because. Gave us hipsters. He gave us hipsters. He's the consequential president. You know why no one knows him? Because... Gave us hipsters. He gave us hipsters. He's the hipster president. They were like, we were into Polk before it was cool, and everyone was like, ugh.
Starting point is 00:06:12 It's like Mumford and Son, no one cares anymore. I bet if he was alive right now, he'd be like, I'm the only president. So like... And I will Polk, what poke will poke on you poke will poke on you he's one of the bad members of mumford and sons it's true poke will poke on you vote today see it says here during his presidency many abolitionists harshly criticized him as an instrument of the slave power. So there you go.
Starting point is 00:06:47 There you go. He loved slaves. He did love slaves. But, I mean, he was a president that was a hipster and lost a war. So, I mean, that's all he had. He won a war. He won the war with Mexico. The Mexican-American War, he won.
Starting point is 00:07:03 That's why we have Texas. Way to go, asshole. Oh, wow. That's why we have Texas. Way to go, asshole. Oh, wow. That's why we have Texas and California. And really, all the states destroying America, we got from this guy. Yeah. You know what? I'd be on the West Coast.
Starting point is 00:07:15 We wouldn't even have any Western things. Chicago would be the West Coast. You would be on the West Coast. You'd be the West Coast. Yep. Everyone would want to move there. That's where Hollywood would be. Hollywood, Illinois.
Starting point is 00:07:24 Yep. There's probably five people in Hollywood, Illinois right now. That's a thing. Yeah. Look at this. Cletus. They talk about us on the internet. His Secretary of State, James Buchanan.
Starting point is 00:07:40 His Vice President, George M. Dallas. Whoa, that's... Dallas, Texas. I know. It's almost like favoritism. Wow. Right? Right. Whoa, that's... Dallas, Texas. I know. It's almost like favoritism. Wow. Right? And, and, check this out. Robert J. Walker, Secretary of Treasury.
Starting point is 00:07:53 Walker in Dallas, and they got Texas. Walker, Texas Ranger. I'm not saying they made a TV show, but the ghosts of a dead president and his cabinet members are behind Walker, Texas Ranger. And you're saying that those three have combined to form Chuck Norris. I'm saying their three souls reside in Chuck Norris. Wow.
Starting point is 00:08:13 I think we just solved a crime here today. Also, did you know that from 1845 to 1849, the postmaster general was Cave Johnson? Cave Johnson? That's awesome! Who's gonna get that mail there? Cave Johnson. He'll awesome. Who's going to get that mail there? Cave Johnson. Cave Johnson.
Starting point is 00:08:27 He'll be the sidekick of Guy Hero. That's fantastic. So yeah, we've all learned something here today. We had some good band names as well. Like Gonorrhea Dragonfruit Jackson. Oh, I like that. Typhoid Mango Johnson. See, the problem is typhoid.
Starting point is 00:08:46 Something Mango Johnson works. Yeah. It needs to be a little bit better than typhoid, though. Like Malaria Mango Johnson. Yeah, I like that. Malaria Mango. Alliteration. Alliteration.
Starting point is 00:08:55 Or like, I don't know. Yeah. Just like alliteration. It's like how you get... We could make Buffalo Wild Wing wing names. What do you mean? Like, who wouldn't eat a malaria mango flavor? Dude, mango is...
Starting point is 00:09:14 Well, first off, the malaria would not... I would not eat that. I mean, the fact that they come out and say, oh, yeah, no, this is malaria. If you eat this, you will probably die. But what if you named your restaurant for Halloween a bunch of disease names? Ooh, like Malaria-manga? What?
Starting point is 00:09:34 Malaria-manga? Malaria-manga? Malaria-manga sounds like the president of a third world country. The president, man. Malaria-manga. Welcome to my country. I... Malerio Manga. Welcome to my country. I am Malerio Manga. I'd play him in Civ V.
Starting point is 00:09:51 He is definitely a civilization character. It's one of those warlords you never heard about, but you're like, I mean, I'll take Civ's word for it. This guy existed in Africa in, like, the 3rd century AD. Sure, yeah, okay. They call me Malerio Manga. Malerio Manga. That guy is definitely...
Starting point is 00:10:13 You know how every hero has the rich overlord guy who, like, runs the city? That's who runs Guy Hero's city. It is. Malerio Manga Oh man Guy Hero just gets better and better Good people are dying every day out there He's like I do not care about this
Starting point is 00:10:32 All I care about is making profits He's like that's why you'll never be one of the people Manga That's why you'll never have my vote He's like I don't need your vote Guy Hero I rig elections He's like, I don't need your vote, gay hero. I read elections. He's like, no. And then Cave Johnson's like, I'll deliver you to hell.
Starting point is 00:10:54 What? Because he's the postmaster. He's going to deliver him to hell. That's his catchphrase. I was going to go with portal, too. But whatever. That's fine. You can go. That's his catchphrase. I was going to go with portal too, but whatever. That's fine. You can go with he's also the postmaster. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:11 I'll deliver you now. That's his catchphrase. He dresses up like a postman. Yeah. Nice. We've created a good story here. We've created like three good stories in this show. I know.
Starting point is 00:11:28 Really? That's all we should. We should go to Hollywood and just offer stories to story people. Yeah. We should just have a story day. Hey, story people. Yeah. Where we just make up stories.
Starting point is 00:11:42 Yeah. That should be Monday because everyone's just uncreative and down. Be like, you know what? It's story day. Speaking of diseases, did you know that Polk died of cholera? Cholera? Like cauliflower? Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 00:11:55 Is cauliflower named after cholera? I don't think so. Cholera. I don't think so at all. Wait. Cholera is an infection of the small intestine that causes a large amount of watery diarrhea. Did he die of watery diarrhea? Oh, man.
Starting point is 00:12:14 He probably did. Dude, that's gotta suck. That sounds really bad. Yeah. You'd die on the toilet. That's not good because it just shoots out your butt. Oh, man. Die on the toilet. That's not good because it just shoots out your butt. Oh, man.
Starting point is 00:12:25 Worldwide, it affects 3 to 5 million people and causes 100 to 130,000 deaths a year as of 2010. Oh, my God. Dude, now I'm worried. I'm going to get poop butt. That sounds like the worst kind of butt. Oh, gross. What? The poop butt stuff is called rice water because it comes out your butt looking white.
Starting point is 00:12:49 Ew. Ew. That's horrifying. Oh, God. Oh, God. Oh, God. Right out the butt looking white. Well, I don't have that problem.
Starting point is 00:13:01 No. My poop never looks white. What are we talking about? That's a great, great quote. I mean, my poo never looks white. People also search for typhoid fever, malaria, yellow fever, infectious diarrhea, and diarrhea. You know what? Here's the problem.
Starting point is 00:13:20 Diarrhea. That sounds, you know what? Here's the problem. Is if I went to like WebMD or one of those websites and said, I have runny diarrhea. I would think I had cholera had I not looked up what it looked like. Think you'd have like 8 billion things. Yeah. Every time I go on one of those websites, I'm like, oh my God, I'm dying.
Starting point is 00:13:38 I know. That's why. I think I'm dying. Just like, oh, I have a weird, red mark on the back of my neck. It's like, you have Lyme disease cancer. That would be the worst. You're going to die tomorrow. Like, spread by a tick? Yep.
Starting point is 00:13:52 Lyme disease cancer spread by the ticks. I would not go anywhere near the forest. What if we lived in, like, a magical world where, like, there were things like Lyme cancer ticks, and then we had to, like, cast spells on them to get rid of it. I would say you were on drugs. What if we all had to take drugs in this world? We didn't know if we weren't on drugs. What if we're on drugs right now and we don't know?
Starting point is 00:14:20 What if we're born into drugs? What if when we dream, it's reality? I mean, if it's reality? I mean, if it was reality, I'd be in jail. Some of my dreams, as we have discussed, are very weird. Oh, man. Oh, yeah, I tweeted about that after I watched Donnie Darko. You ever see Donnie Darko?
Starting point is 00:14:37 Did you? Oh, God. You're not one of those people who's like, I saw a movie about reality and time travel, and I'm like, you know, man, are we real? Is this our only reality? Don't do that. Don't be that guy. Don't be that guy. Don't be the guy who sees an inspirational movie, then quotes the movie for weeks to come.
Starting point is 00:14:57 Don't do that. Don't be that guy. Don't be the guy who's like, I just saw a movie and it altered my mind. Don't be that person. Don't do that. Okay, I just saw a movie and it altered my mind. Don't be that person. Don't do that. Okay, I won't. But, if I was. If you were.
Starting point is 00:15:11 What if we are time travelers and we forgot, we had to wipe our memories clean. And we came back and we changed the world so that James Polk won the presidency. And we could talk about him on this podcast. Crandor? Uh-huh? I'm about to blow your mind. Oh, man. Close your eyes and think about this.
Starting point is 00:15:32 All right, eyes closed. We are time travelers. We travel through time into the future. I know. I thought there was going to be more. No! We travel through time. That's supposed to blow your mind.
Starting point is 00:15:47 Yeah, well, I already knew that because we went back to change James Polk to win the presidency. That's not what I meant. Oh. Wait. Oh, man. Now my mind is... We travel through time. You and I, right now now are traveling forward through time.
Starting point is 00:16:05 Oh, right now? Yes, right now. Whoa. Yeah, we're all time travelers. We're traveling through time to the future together. That's my mind-blowing statement. Oh, because we are. Yes.
Starting point is 00:16:21 Yeah, but we're going really slow. You always have to complain, don't you? I do. I mean, if we could just speed up the process. I mean, that's what humans do. It's like, Mike, I don't like walking. I want a bike. I don't like this bike.
Starting point is 00:16:36 It's slow. I want a car. I don't like this car. I want a jet. Oh, man, now I got diseases from another country because I got there too fast on my jet. This sucks. That's humans. I don't want to get diseases no more.
Starting point is 00:16:50 What's the next step, Grendor? You have all the answers. What's the next step? No diseases. How do we get rid of diseases? Magic. Great. We have to locate the leprechauns.
Starting point is 00:16:59 So really, we have to get to the end of the rainbow. The end of the rainbow, according to an Imgur post I saw, is a soccer field and like connecticut that's where the leprechauns are they're all playing football football oh saints preserve us we're all playing football i bet pele is a leprechaun that's why he lived so long that's what we all know about him he's like a legend whoa i know i don't even know how we've gotten to where we are right now now speaking of getting where you're going let's go chop the covers out of the sky the crendor crendor how's that traffic out there traffic's kind of not happening today because i decided to fly over the uh soccer field at the end of the rainbow looks like uh ethan needham
Starting point is 00:17:41 and james jamo are down there uh fighting over the pot of gold that's down there. I mean, I think it's just chocolate coins, but I'd fight over it too. We also have Spencer Bissell. And it looks like he's fighting with a leprechaun trying to figure out his time-traveling secrets. But it's not going so well since the leprechaun has portability that allows him to port all over the world. And now he just teleports. Maybe we should fly into the portal one day, but not today because I'm not feeling
Starting point is 00:18:10 very worried about doing stuff. Back to you. Thanks, Crandor. Now let's go to Crandor at the sports desk. Crandor, what's going on in sports? Usually I do weather first. Crandor, what's going on in weather? Welcome to the weather. Today let's go to Connecticut
Starting point is 00:18:25 since that soccer field's there. I don't know how to spell Connecticut. Great. Connecticut. Connecticut. Connecticut. Hold on, I gotta type this in Twitter. American education!
Starting point is 00:18:43 It does great for your kids! Why would you name a place Connecticut? Cause, I think it was like an Indian name? Oh. Oh. You know what, I gotta look that up now. And then Columbus. I don't want anyone to be like, wrong, Cox.
Starting point is 00:18:59 Connecticut. Why do we say Connecticut? Yes, the word is derived from various Anglicanized spellings Of an Algonquin word I like how I can say Algonquin But I can't say Anglicanized For Long Tidal River So yes, it is in fact a Native American word
Starting point is 00:19:16 No, I feel like a lot of places are If it isn't a Native American word Or a South, like a A Mexican word Like a South of the border, sort of like Spanish, I guess is what I should be saying. If it isn't Spanish or Native American, it's usually named after someone. That's how we do it.
Starting point is 00:19:36 Yeah. We're very lazy. Or like New England. Yeah. Or we just take a place that exists and add stuff to it. Or we get very descriptive, like Long Island. Yeah, Long Island. It's almost like there are people here before us that we killed off.
Starting point is 00:19:54 I don't remember any of them. I don't either. If they were here, why aren't they around to speak up for themselves? Exactly. Doesn't make any sense. We found this country and it was empty. Just animals, animals animals and uh mormons mormons no no mormons came later oh yeah and the spaceships
Starting point is 00:20:14 yep that's what i learned in religious class i mean i didn't learn about them all right this is the weather andover connecticut Connecticut. We have 53 degrees. It's cloudy. It's going to be cold, 50s. You got some PM showers, you know. You got some rain. You got some light rain. Going to get cloudy.
Starting point is 00:20:33 But you know what? Next week, it's going to be sunny and 60. That's not too bad. Yeah, it's pretty good leprechaun weather. Especially for the Northeast. I know. Yeah. Yeah, it's not bad. All right, what's going on in sports?
Starting point is 00:20:44 Oh, man, sports today. All right. What's going on in sports? Oh, man. Sports today. All the football got played. Seattle lost to St. Louis, which is really sad for them. Because, I mean, St. Louis is really bad, and Seattle is really good, but apparently not. Then Peyton Manning broke the all-time passing touchdown record. He was trending on Twitter. Yep.
Starting point is 00:21:04 Last I looked, he was still there. He passed Brett Favre for the all-time touchdown. Favre? Brett Favre. You know what's going to happen? You know what's going to happen? One day, Peyton Manning will be as nutty as Brett Favre. It's true.
Starting point is 00:21:18 And we'll all look back and be like, remember when he was someone we cared about? And there'll be some other guy coming up with an even more ludicrous name like Malario Manga. Yeah. I feel like Peyton Manning is just going to take even more brand deal things. 2025, guys. Malario Manga is going to come get the highest passing record. Peyton Manning.
Starting point is 00:21:41 This is going to be on the new thing, Twatster, and they're going to be on Twatster. Mind robots. And they'll be like, hey, remember when Peyton Manning was a thing?
Starting point is 00:21:51 Now it's all Malario manga. Yep, and it'll be a bunch of mind robots, and then Peyton Manning will be driving around in his Buick with his Papa John's pizza
Starting point is 00:21:57 and be like, Papa John's and Buick, I'm driving Malario manga around in this car. You should buy. And then Malario manga around in this car. You should buy. And then Malario manga would just be like, yes, you should buy the car. Can I ask a fundamental, very important question? Yes.
Starting point is 00:22:11 Why do they pay Peyton Manning to be in things? Because every time I see him, he is the most stiff, like, uncomfortable. He's like, I like Papa John's pizza. It's the taste you can feel Like, what are you talking about? Like, I like this car Uh, blue 42, I'm driving with OnStar Like, ahhh
Starting point is 00:22:35 It's true, he's very just like stiff And like, I could throw a football sometimes It's literally like, you can tell he spent his entire life Training to be a football player and not to do anything else. He's learned nothing else. He's learned nothing else. He walks out of the football stadium like a bunch of people run up to him and he's like, we'll help you in your beer, Mr. Payton. He's like, I know.

Schrader says he was forced off the film when the producers kept him out of the editing room. The producers assert that Schrader quit after turning in a cut that didn't align with the script. Said producer Gary Hirsch, we made suggestions
Starting point is 00:28:55 with Paul to a large extent didn't, uh, so apparently they didn't approve of the suggestions and they were just like, whatever, we're just going to do it our way. Can I ask a fundamental question then? Yeah. Are we to assume that most Nicolas Cage movies, by the time they get to the studio executives, are fantastic,

A publishing executive is visited and bitten by a woman and starts exhibiting erratic behavior. He pushes his secretary to extremes as he tries to come to terms with his delusions. The woman continues to visit, and as his madness deepens, it begins to look as if some of the events he's experiencing may be hallucinations. So basically, his story is he is a crazy person who thinks he's a vampire. Sounds amazing. This movie is a comedy fantasy horror. That's right. It made at the box office $700,000. Well, you know, should have made more.
Starting point is 00:32:01 How is this even genres? Comedy, fantasy, horror, mystery, thriller. It's like every genre. And then it says taglines. Seduction, romance, murder, the things one does for love. What? That doesn't make any sense. It sounds like a type of movie that would go on a YouTube video and they're just throwing a bunch of tags on it.
Starting point is 00:32:25 It is, I think, pretty much that. Man, Nicolas Cage, you're the best. You are the best, Nicolas Cage. Alright, so what's the first, go back to that first story. Yep, Florida meth makers arrested after 911 pocket dial. Police in Florida arrested three people after learning about their meth operation thanks to a most unfortunate pocket dial the smoking gun reports that after receiving the accidental 9-1-1 call which included the sound of bubbling as if something were cooking deputies with the volusia county sheriff's office ventured to the deltona florida home discovering a shed in the backyard which housed a meth lab
Starting point is 00:33:02 when volusia county Sheriff's Office deputies peered into an open window, they spotted material indicating that the shed housed a methamphetamine lab, including a bottle that appeared to be smoking. Additionally, white smoke billowed from the shed. During the ensuing raid, 55-year-old Donna Knope,
Starting point is 00:33:21 her 32-year-old son Jason Knope, and 41-year-old Thomas Stallings were arrested in charges of possessing and manufacturing meth. While police aren't certain which of these three geniuses pocket dialed them, they're certainly grateful. That is almost as good as the story I heard this week on the radio while driving home. as good as the story I heard this week on the radio while driving home.
