Starting point is 00:00:00 Today's episode is brought to you by Honey. Honey's out there trying to save you some money. Also, today we're brought to you by MeUndies. MeUndies are the undies that I have on my body currently, presently, and will for some time. Because they feel so good. Unless they have a reason to take them off. Right, Grendor? Right? Uh, sure. Thanks, pal.
Starting point is 00:00:24 Alright, let's jump into this podcast. Hello, everybody. It's time for Ghost on Trend Dog. This is Trend Dog in the morning. In the morning. Broadcasting live, live, live, live, live. In 4-hour recording studio. Recording.
Starting point is 00:00:56 Wake your ass up. It'sax Grenda in the morning. Oh, hey. Oh, what's up? Oh, hi. Hello. Hello, hey, hi. Hi, hello. You know, right at the top, before we start. All right. If, let's say, around December 12th, you want to go to Chicago. Let's just say you want to go to Chicago and see a live show. And let's say you're also, I'm going to beg, vaccinated.
Starting point is 00:01:22 Let's say you're also vaccinated. That would be good. And you want to come to beg vaccinated. Let's say you're also vaccinated. That would be good. And you want to come to a show. I'm just letting you know one is in the works. And more information soon. And I would love for you to be there. Because last time we had a ton of fun. And then we were going to do another show.
Starting point is 00:01:39 And then COVID happened. And then a year and a half went by. Yes. So I'm just saying. I've been out into public now and I miss it. Last night I went out with our dear friend, our dear friend Josh, Lore as you may know him. Yes. And hung out with him and his lovely lady.
Starting point is 00:02:00 And we went and like drank a bunch of crazy beers at this crazy brewery. I've never had so many weird sour beers or beers that were made from churros or whatever my entire life. It was great. Super fun. And because there were no rules, we brought pie and ate pie. And it was perfect. A perfect night. And I realized, man, I want to do that more often.
Starting point is 00:02:28 But this was like a very small brewery place. Everyone in there, there was like people playing card games and stuff. So it wasn't like packed, crowded, crazy place. It seemed like a bunch of nerds being nerds. And then like, you know, there was a lot of spacing between seating. And there was a lot of people outside and stuff like that. So it felt safe relatively to where I've been before. The only other time I've gone out that was in sort of a barry setting, it hit 7 PM and
Starting point is 00:02:55 I was like, there's too many like 19 year olds here or whatever. They look way too young to be at this bar and they're all like on top of each other. And I was like, this is how they get me no i'm out i uh i went and got food with my one friend last week and we were like a it was like a bar thing there wasn't like that many people there but one guy at the bar looked over at us and he was like you look like the guy from Hanson. You specifically? Yes. And I said, you know what? Maybe I do.
Starting point is 00:03:38 And he was like, I think he was an older, probably late 40s, early 50s, bald Irish man. Oh, so my dad was there? What do you mean? It quite possibly could have been your dad. He definitely, we thought it was a German accent at first, and then we overheard him mentioning Irish and how he's Irish. Interesting. I mean, he could have a little German accent and still be Irish. That's possible, yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:59 So there's like an Irish dude who lives in Germany who picked up a little accent. That has to have happened. That's true. It has to have. Speaking of people that look like you though, this past week, come on. That video that I sent you, that dude looks like you. Oh, that one.
Starting point is 00:04:17 That guy looks like the tattooed version of you. He's got more facial, he's got more everything. Back to work rebuilding a wooden boat. Yeah. He's in that video for all of like two minutes. They're like, what do you do?
Starting point is 00:04:33 He's like, I'm the captain, I build boats. And I'm like, that is Crandor's doppelganger. If you go online internet, I'm going to make this the image for this episode, which is what I'm going to do. And it is straight up just this guy
Starting point is 00:04:47 who looks like an older, I'm going to say more over at Crandor. Maybe that is me. Maybe that's future you. Just in a weird time dimension. Yeah, he like builds boats.
Starting point is 00:05:03 He's got the hair. He's got the beard. The only thing I can't really tell is because he's got giant sunglasses, so it's hard to make out the rest of him. But like, come on. You're more ripped than he is though. I'll say that. That's true. You've got like musculature and he's kind of like
Starting point is 00:05:19 work on boats and drink marijuana. He's definitely drinking marijuana. Oh yeah. He's drinking his marijuana. He also has a tattoo of a garbage cane. And he has a tattoo that looks kind of like some sort of creature on his
Starting point is 00:05:36 arm. What is that? Do you see that thing on his shoulder? It's like a like a bug creature. What is that? It's like something that crawls out of a tree to ask you a riddle what the hell is that i think this this is like if i decided if i had like a youtube and everything didn't work out years ago and then i was just like well what am i gonna do now i'm like oh go to like alaska and work on a boat yeah i, I guess I'll build wooden boats. I mean, that's what this whole show?
Starting point is 00:06:06 I don't know what this is. This is clearly episode four of something. Unless it really is episode 104, which is crazy. But it seems like it's episode 104 of a TV show where it's like dudes building wood boats from scratch. Which, by the way, is super cool. Yeah. I think that's neat to just build a boat from scratch. That's like old school cool. But this
Starting point is 00:06:30 guy, he's like, yeah, I have a company. We build boats. And he just I can't believe he exists. People all the time are like, dude, that guy looks like you. And I know there is a large contingent of fat nerd who we are all doppelgangers of each other.
Starting point is 00:06:47 Red beard. Oh, yeah, like the black shirt. I get it. I know who we are. But I've never seen another Krendor. And this is pretty impressive to me. Yeah, that is honestly like a distant relative or something. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:07:06 Oh, yeah. And he's got the creative working on stuff. Like, I'm building miniature boats over here. He's building real boats. It's almost the same thing. Yeah, practically. Yeah? The hard part is I don't know exactly what he looks like
Starting point is 00:07:24 because the beard and the hair. Like, he definitely has Unabomber vibes. You don't know what this guy's really up to. Like, why are you building these boats, my friend? What's going on with you? But, all put together, he definitely has a Crandor vibe. I don't know if you'd be walking around with, like, a dirty button-up sleeveless shirt. That definitely at one point had sleeves, but he cut those sleeves off yeah that's the difference i prefer my like
Starting point is 00:07:48 athleisure uh clothing yeah you don't do buttons buttons like not part of your life yeah no i just have like i have like some short sleeve sleeve shirts and i got like some lululemon shirts which like those shirts i love that you have. I love because you're like vent the air. They do. They're very breathable. Sure. You got to breathe. You got to breathe up in there.
Starting point is 00:08:14 I'm all about comfort. Yeah, you're like quiet from Metal Gear. You have to breathe through your skin. That's why you wear so many bikinis. What? That is a joke for the that's a deep cut for the nerds out there for the nerds and i'm gonna say perverts i'm not nerdy enough for that one or perverted yeah you're right you're right stick to my sports reference someone out there there's many comments in this video like nailed
Starting point is 00:08:41 it jesse hilarious joke they're gonna love it your kids are gonna love it so yeah i don't know uh it does uh i was gonna i was gonna bring up a tweet you made because i thought oh oh no it was a while ago so you said no um where was it oh yeah here it is uh pretty much a guy spilled your drink and then then he was like, you did this or something. And then you had people being like, this idiot's ordering coffee. Yes, that did happen this week. Blew my mind. I couldn't believe.
Starting point is 00:09:19 So the one that set me off. So I tweeted about how earlier this week I ordered coffee. I was at the office ordered coffee and uh the guy driving the car pulled up and he like lift up the bag and it was just dripping with coffee and he was like bro oh your coffee spilled on my car bro god he was like so mad i was like sorry right like what do i say like you know you literally spilled my coffee i was like should i get a refund what should i do and he's like i don't know i gotta clean my damn car now i was like i mean it's not my fault you know that right he's like dude you did oh this is so dumb and he like drove off that's like ordering at a restaurant and they bring out your
Starting point is 00:10:03 food and drop it they're like oh my, oh my God, look what you did. Yeah. And I just couldn't believe that he was so mad at me. And so I had to take my coffee immediately to the dumpster because it was, the things were open. The bag was literally half filled with coffee. I was like, oh my God. Did you like report it?
Starting point is 00:10:20 Yeah. I mean, I got a refund and then they were like, we'll send one out to you for free. I was like, great. But I tweeted, hey, I got a refund. And then they were like, well, send one out to you for free. I was like, great. But I tweeted, hey, I got this coffee. And there was one comment that was something along the lines of like, I can't believe you ordered one coffee. And I was like, time out, time out. Where in my tweet did I say ordered one? I said coffee.
Starting point is 00:10:41 Isn't the plural of coffee, coffee? Should I have said coffees? I don't know what you, I said coffees i don't know what you i was like i don't know what you want from me the internet was just like let me tell you why you're such a stuck up stuck up american because you ordered coffee and i was like i i ordered more than one drink like why are you upset with me i don't understand they're like i don't just make coffee the office is like it was espresso-based. Well, there's your problem. You've got to define it. You shouldn't have to.
Starting point is 00:11:08 You shouldn't have to. Well, all right. You're hitting coffee elitist creme d'or tears. All right. It bothers me when people are like, I'm getting a coffee. But I'm like, coffee is like you brew it, and it's there. That's a coffee. Other things are like lattes, espressos.
Starting point is 00:11:24 But if it's iced coffee, I don't know what they make That's a coffee. Like other things are like lattes, espressos. But if it's ice coffee, I don't know what they make with the ice coffee. I imagine that's just coffee. Ice coffee is just coffee with ice in it. Okay. But if you're going out with friends and you're going to say a cafe and someone says, yo, what are you guys going to get? And you say coffee that covers the general scope of brewed coffee to espresso to cold coffees and iced coffees and frozen Frappuccino things. It covers the whole thing. All I'm saying is, you only have 200-some-80 characters. Coffee fits.
Starting point is 00:11:58 The point wasn't that I got coffee. The point was the coffee I did get, the guy spilled it and blamed it on me. But no one focused on that part. Everyone focused on the part where they're like, this dumbass American. What an idiot. So lazy they are. They can't even make them like, what are you talking? I can't
Starting point is 00:12:15 even treat myself to some good coffee. I think if you would have defined it more, it makes it a little more pig. Because when you say like they spilled my coffee, I picture someone just like a, you know, like starbucks venti coffee and they just spilled it in the thing but if you say like oh they spilled my latte it's a little more like oh okay that's a like they had to fancy make that here's the thing it's all in there you and i you and i both know if i said he spilled my latte there would be people different people in my chat being
Starting point is 00:12:43 like this latte drinking american son of a bitch over there drinking his dumb lattes. Who do you think you are, Mr. Fru-Fru? No matter what you say, someone's going to yell at you. Oh, yeah. There's no win. I'm arguing for the specifications of this because I like the picture in my head. Well, I shouldn't have to specify every time I tweet. And if you're wondering, Jesse, well then why do you
Starting point is 00:13:08 tweet? Great point. In fact, 90% of the time I go to tweet a thing, I simply do not. So if you're wondering why some days there's no tweets coming from me, it's because I literally probably had a hot take, said, nah, I'm good, and deleted it. Because I can't be asked to
Starting point is 00:13:24 look at everyone and be be like here is what I think about the opinion that you have and why you're so bad it's like I made a terrible error um yeah I mean you know I would uh like I said I would have rather been the guy I've been like look at this guy ordering a latte I don't know No. I would rather not have to deal with that either. Why can't I just enjoy? Why can't I just enjoy things? I mean, I wouldn't care, but I would have preferred to be yelled at for having a latte is what I'm saying. I don't know how to explain to people.
Starting point is 00:13:58 So it's like, okay, my options are either A, I stop whatever I'm working on, go someplace to get the coffee, come back. Or continue what I'm working on, get coffee brought to me, continue working, and then leave the office at a reasonable time instead of staying here until like 7 or 8 at night. I made my bed. I have chosen to lay in that. I'm fine paying the extra few dollars for them to bring it to me. It's not a big deal. Everyone's like, oh, this asshole. I'm like, you don't live my life.
Starting point is 00:14:33 You don't pay my sub. Get out of here. I mean, it's also a thing where, like, I feel like if you're only doing it so often, like, whatever. But if, like, you know, you're doing it every day, maybe that's like, uh, it's getting a little crazy or something. It just depends on what my vibe is. Some days I'm like, I guess I'll make a coffee here at the office. And some days I'm like, you know, I could use like a low fat triple frappe snooze little boozle with extra whipped cream and a slurpy burpee.
Starting point is 00:15:01 You know what I mean? Like some days you just want to have fun. Yeah. You got to get that slurpy burpee though You know what I mean? Like, some days you just want to have fun. Yeah. You got to get that slurpy burpy, though. You got to ask for it special. See, it's like, okay, the coffee elitist in me, right? I understand where you're coming from. It has like espresso and stuff, which is a form of coffee.
Starting point is 00:15:21 But when you just blend all the things of coffee together, it doesn't work for me. I wouldn't blend a form of coffee. But when you just blend all the things of coffee together, it doesn't work for me. I wouldn't blend the things of coffee. Who's going to blend the things of coffee? You just did by saying I'm getting a coffee. Why do I have to be specific to say I'm purchasing a latte?
Starting point is 00:15:39 And so that makes you comfortable. Why do I have to make you comfortable with my purchase? Because that's our society. Well, that's a problem. Well, that's literally everybody today. I don't get on you when you're like, I bought my $26 Moroccan fresh grind that came from a monkey's anus. Yeah, but I'm specifying that I bought a Moroccan anus coffee. Yeah, but I wouldn't be like
Starting point is 00:16:05 this idiot i would be like oh what was that like how did it taste i wouldn't be like oh this guy okay here's what here's what i'm getting at all right i'll give you an example all right if i get a frappuccino yeah okay and i drink that frappuccino a lot of times it's so sweet that i need black coffee to balance it out afterwards because i oh, my God, the bitterness of that coffee is going to balance it out. I'm not going to be like, man, I just had this sweet coffee. I'm going to need a coffee to balance out that coffee. Oh, right. But if you went to a place and you ordered, like everyone at the table ordered something, right?
Starting point is 00:16:43 And you ordered, like everyone at the table ordered something, right? And then you went to go tell people that you were ordering drinks with everyone at that place. And everyone was like, oh, what are you having? You wouldn't proceed to then list every single drink being ordered, would you? Yes. That's, I would've been like, we're all having coffee. That's it. But if you go up to order it and go, we'll have five coffees. But you wouldn't say that. No. That's what i'm saying but it's quick to the point not everyone needs to know every damn
Starting point is 00:17:12 thing you're doing you just say hey we're having coffee like last i said last night we ate pie and drank stuff i didn't say like well we had one cherry pie and we had one pie that was like a weird like chocolate pie that i had. A pie can be a specified general thing. So you're like, what kind of pie are you having? When you say coffee, the problem is that if you have coffee, people I think instantly think of brewed coffee.
Starting point is 00:17:36 I don't think that's true. I don't think everyone thinks of brewed coffee. I don't think that's true. I think when you say coffee, people think of water that's black. People think when you say coffee, people think of water that's black. People think of black water and they think of
Starting point is 00:17:50 the ways you can drink it. That's it. That's all they're thinking about. I don't know that people... You are hyped up on coffee because you're the coffee connoisseur. You're just like, I have all these things of coffee, but I like my espresso and I like this. It's just like wine people. You're like, yeah, I'm having wine. They're like, what kind of wine? I don't know. I don't know wine. Well, but I like my espresso, and I like this. It's just like wine people.
Starting point is 00:18:05 They're like, yeah, I'm having wine. They're like, what kind of wine? I'm like, I don't know. I don't have a wine. Well, I'm also a wine person. I know. I'm aware. There's going to be things you got, or you're just like, everybody's going to be bothered by something. It's like somebody might be, you know, you might be like a lore nerd with like Final Fantasy or something.
Starting point is 00:18:24 Be like, the thing, and I'm just like, eh, whatever. It's story. Yeah. Yeah. Right. But my point is that I wouldn't then show up if you're like, I just did this thing in Final Fantasy. Like I just went to a dungeon in Final Fantasy. I'm not going to show up and be like, actually, that was a raid.
Starting point is 00:18:41 Raid mechanically is different from a, like, I'm not going to do that to you. I would never do that to you. There is somebody that's going to do it, though. Oh, yes! And I'm saying stop that. I'm saying stop it. Let people enjoy. Let people have fun.
Starting point is 00:18:53 No, you don't get to have fun. This is my coffee grounds. This is where I got my coffee grounds. Oh, my goodness. I think... Okay, I get it. Like, I used to be worse with it. I don't really care as much anymore.
Starting point is 00:19:05 I'm like, you know what? It's like a form of coffee, whatever. But I feel like if you're doing a tweet or something, I feel like specifying what kind of coffee it is is going to be good for the tweet because you're painting a picture, you're writing. But it wasn't the problem with the tweet. The tweet problem that people had
Starting point is 00:19:21 was they were mad that I was ordering drinks to me rather than going to get them. But I thought you said there were people who were mad because you're like, oh, you can make coffee in 20 seconds. Oh, well, there were some people who were like, I'm mad that you ordered coffee when you can just make coffee at home. Or they were like, you ordered one coffee? I was like, no.
Starting point is 00:19:42 I didn't reply to them because I don't feel like it's justified me replying. But, like, I didn't order one coffee. I never mentioned one coffee. You just assumed that I was speaking of a singular rather than a plural. Now I know from now on I have to say coffees. Or get specific. But it wasn't lattes. It was a numerous amount of things.
Starting point is 00:20:02 It wasn't just, it was, like, coffee plus like a drink, like an iced tea drink. Like it was just, you know, you know what I'm saying? You could have said ordered drinks. I could, you know what? I could have said that. I could have said that, but I didn't. And there is no edit function, so I got destroyed on Twitter by a bunch of people in Europe who were like Americans. It's like, oh my God.
Starting point is 00:20:24 Oh my God. Oh my God. Oh my God. All I wanted to do was just say this guy was being an asshole, and it was funny to me that he was upset. And then people were like, Americans, taking all the coffee. And I was like, oh
Starting point is 00:20:39 my ass. Yeah, I mean, I wouldn't have did that. I'm just, yeah. that's all i'm saying is you can you can judge me you can get on you can judge me just don't do it on twitter just privately in your own home be like this asshole and that's fine i'll be okay with that it's uh i also as your friend just like to poke you with a stick a bit how dare you how dare you do this?
Starting point is 00:21:06 Because really, I would have read that thing and been like, oh, that sucks. And I just kept scrolling my Twitter and being like, man, why am I looking at Twitter and closed it? Well, speaking of coffee, this week I went to a bagel place that's kind of near the office. It's all right. It's solidly all right. They do have a great bacon, egg, and cheese bagel on a spinach bagel, if you will. Very good. Delicious.
Starting point is 00:21:33 But when I was there, there was a guy in front of me who looked, I'm going to say, 95. He was shaking the entire time. He was like Shaking the entire time He was old, frail But this man knew exactly what he wanted And he began to order a bagel Like some people order lattes See I did that for you, I was about to say coffee But like lattes
Starting point is 00:21:57 And so I had to write down everything he said Because it was so detailed He wrote, or he said I want an everything bagel one pass rub off of the everything so i imagine he wanted them to scrape some of the everything off and then he said hollow out the bagel cream cheese two scoops aside crispy as crispy as possible almost burnt and the woman just went okay. And just went in and did it. It was crazy.
Starting point is 00:22:29 I imagine he's like, that's his thing. But I thought about what he was saying, and I was like, okay, so he got an everything bagel, but he doesn't really want all of the everything. Then he wanted them to scoop out the insides of the bagel so that when they cut it, most of the bread on the inside's gone, I imagine. Then two scoops of cream cheese on each side and then i guess so that cream cheese took up most of the inside of the bagel and then he wanted them to burn the hell out of it and i was like you know
Starting point is 00:22:59 what that's crazy but that man knows exactly what he wants he doesn't he's not here to play around he's got like days left. He's like, I don't give a shit. Make my bagel the way I want it. And I was like, you know what? I need to be like this guy more often. This guy does seem like a guy. He knows what he wants.
Starting point is 00:23:17 And you know what? If I was like, what the shit? Then I wouldn't be able to get. I'd be hypocritical and go to other things and be like, where's my double shot, blah, blah, blah, right? Yeah. It's just I've never seen that at anything but a coffee. A coffee enthusiast. Yeah, or drinks in general.
Starting point is 00:23:37 Or like if you go to a restaurant, sometimes a person, especially in LA, sometimes you go to a restaurant with a person and they'll be like, yes, I see here you have a Caesar salad. Is it a chance that I could purchase a Caesar salad minus the chicken plus shrimp minus the Caesar plus a nice vinaigrette? And then instead of the normal salad, can you put in a different veggie mix, if you would? You're like, did you just order an entirely different menu item and then just say it was the Caesar? Because that way they're like, yes, sir, of caesar and because they're like yes sir of course we can you're like what the hell is happening can i get a cheeseburger but like replace the burger
Starting point is 00:24:11 with like a chicken breast and then maybe put like cheese on top of like pepper jack instead of cheddar and then maybe like lettuce tomato hold everything else like you just order a chicken sandwich it's like um no they do not hear me it was a cheeseburger with chicken minus the burger please yeah like i feel like some people just make it overly complex just to do it or sound fancier they're they're i don't know if this is like an apocryphal tale but apocryphal yes that's uh that's that's your million dollar million dollar word an apocryphal that's your million dollar word an apocryphal tale apocryphal
Starting point is 00:24:49 uh oh are we in the definition? empirical how do you spell this? apocryphal apocryphal I can't find it you can't find apocryphal? Of or relating to anaphora?
Starting point is 00:25:11 I think you just made this word up. A-P-O-C-R-Y-P-H-A-L. Apocryphal. Apocryphal. Apocryphal. Yes. Of doubtful authenticity. Yes. I don't know if this is a true story is what I'm trying to say.
Starting point is 00:25:35 There's a million dollar word. Apocryphal. I don't know if this is true, but I heard that, I don't know which musician this is but one of the musicians and i'm sure someone will let us know would write in his his contracts all of his contracts and in his dressing room he wanted green m&ms and everyone was like oh what an asshole this guy is but the reason why it was in there what he said was that he was like i wanted to make sure they read the contract so i would get everything that I signed up for So in there it would say
Starting point is 00:26:08 In the dressing room a bowl of green M&M's And so I wonder If that's kind of like The vibe of People Who are like I'm an executive, I'm a businessman So I'm going to go to a restaurant
Starting point is 00:26:23 And I'm going to give them the most complicated order to make sure they're listening to me. Now, I could have ordered a chicken sandwich, but I think they should listen to me. So I'm going to give them a complicated order for a chicken sandwich that isn't a chicken sandwich. Right? Like that kind of thing.
Starting point is 00:26:37 I don't know. Or they're just assholes. But. Probably the lighter. Yeah. I don't know. Apocrypha. Apocryphal. Apocryph lighter. Yeah. I don't know. Apocrypha. Apocryphal.
Starting point is 00:26:48 Apocryphal. Yeah. Most of it is, it's like urban legends and things like that. Oh, I see. Right. Or sometimes it's, there's a lot of parts of the Bible that they say were left out. Oh, yeah. So people are like, oh, that's like an apocryphal tale.
Starting point is 00:27:04 Like it's something that was like biblical, but not like that kind of thing. Oh yeah. So people are like, oh, that's like an apocryphal tale. Like it's something that was like biblical, but not like that kind of thing. I see. Interesting. It's like the stuff they chose not to include. Yeah. I thought that is the Dead Sea Scrolls. Maybe that counts. I'm not sure, but I know there's many books that were written that are considered like canonical to the Bible. They're like, nah, leave them out. Yeah. Yeah, interesting.
Starting point is 00:27:29 I think that was the, uh, it was like the Catholic Church thing, right? In the medieval times, they, like, went through, or what's his name? Uh, that guy, you know. Yeah, it was like in the, in 1030-something, 10-something. Was it Constantinople? It might have been. It's one of those. One of those, like, older kings.
Starting point is 00:27:49 Well, it would have been Constantine then. Constantine. I think that's it. And so, yeah, they decided what to keep and what not. And so, yeah, that's why people are like, wait, why are there these other things that were written and you chose to leave them out? And I'm sure like, well, look, I'm sure there's a lot of politics and a lot of nonsense was involved. And what we got is what we got. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:28:11 Speaking of the kings, I've been learning about castles. Wait, what? Yeah. So what is that? What a castle? No, I thought you said I I've been learning about castle. Castles. Oh, I didn't hear the S.
Starting point is 00:28:29 I was like, I've been learning about castle. I'm like, and? What does that mean? I've been learning about the castle, yes. Because I'm writing my book and everything, so I want to design a main castle. And I was like, well, I don't even know. I know about video game castles, and I know what's in castles, but I don't know how they're laid out So I was like I'm gonna watch thing on castle so I went straight to YouTube and of course
Starting point is 00:28:54 There's like some top tier castle building things and the one was pretty good Where's just like this type of castle would be like this and then you'd upgrade if you had money and blah blah blah and then i learned uh decent amount about castles there's some crazy castles out there they're showing all the like big ones from like civilizations and stuff there's like uh i think there's one in syria or uh one of those places there's one in like the dover castle in england's pretty crazy i think there's one in Spain. There's like the crazy one in Poland with the Teutonic Knights. There's some crazy castles. What I think you'll love is one of my favorite parts of history
Starting point is 00:29:33 is when things rapidly change. So, for example, when everyone had horses and then suddenly there were cars, like that kind of vibe. Oh, yeah. And one of my favorite parts of history is all the Kings of Europe built castles, right? You protect yourself.
Starting point is 00:29:50 So you have like a moat to protect yourself from like troops on the ground. You have strong fortified walls that are like super, super thick to protect yourself from, from catapults and all sorts of different things. And they're very high to protect you from like guys climbing over it. And you're, you know, you from guys climbing over it. And maybe you're up against a cliff face, or maybe you're up on a hill. So people can't just eat.
Starting point is 00:30:13 All these different strategies they made. Yeah. And then some asshole came along and was like, let me tell you about cannons. And suddenly everything about castles had to change, because they were like, one shot can tear down that wall. We got this. And I love that part of history because suddenly it's like every monarchy being like, oh my god, what do we do? And so they start building wacky-ass castle designs in order to prevent cannon fire
Starting point is 00:30:37 or to keep cannons from kind of like messing with their fortifications. And so they start having weird points and sharp little areas and it's incredible. It's so silly. That and boats. When boats, when they were like, alright, we have to stop cannons from hitting us. What do we do?
Starting point is 00:30:58 And they just start putting iron all over boats and then the cannonballs start bouncing off and then you end up with battles where it's like two ships firing on each other and they can do no damage to each other so they're like well all right i guess we'll uh see you guys next time and they just like go their separate ways because nothing happens oh yeah that is pretty funny those are the best parts of history where everyone's like we don't know what we're doing. We're just shooting at each other until we figure it out. It's crazy. I didn't realize how much, like, how, like, there's, like, crazy traps and stuff in castles, too,
Starting point is 00:31:32 where they got, like, there's, like, the murder holes because they, like, get through the one gate and they're like, we're in, and then, like, another gate's there and it closes and then they, like, dump oil and shit on them. Yeah, yeah, that's why they have In most castles that sort of like First gate second gate Kind of cave system you know what I mean Yeah cause I was like yeah why do they do that And I was like oh that's where they kill people
Starting point is 00:31:53 Yeah you think you're in one And it's like you idiot And then you know then the bodies are stuck there And so you have to wait over your fellow knights And soldiers and that's a pain in the ass That's why sieging castles most of the time It was just like we'll wait a few months and let them starve to death yeah yeah that's uh that makes sense now because i was trying to learn about sieges too so i was like yeah sieges you got like your siege weapons but then sieges would just last forever because
Starting point is 00:32:19 it's like they don't actually want to attack it so like god that's gonna be annoying yeah it was mostly about your morality level because you could like a lot of the time they would be like, all right, do we have sick and wounded? Great. Throw them on the catapult and fling them in there and get everyone in the castle of disease. Oh, yeah, that would make sense. Or like, oh, they have a like a river that goes into the castle. Damn up the river.
Starting point is 00:32:42 So they dive like water thirst, dehyd like, water thirst. Dehydration. Water thirst. I forgot the name. Water thirst. Sir, we're dying of water thirst. God damn. What do we do? That's what they would have called it in the olden days. The old water thirst.
Starting point is 00:32:59 We must need water. Yeah, I mean, when you think about it, you're like, yeah, nobody will penetrate the castle. And then it's like, what do we do if we want to go out and we're trapped? And you're like, uh-oh. I guess they build tunnels and stuff. Yeah, so there's a lot of famous castles that have secret tunnels into town. And most of the time, there were also secret rooms. So a lot of the time a castle would be built and then not every person building the castle had all the information about how the castle worked.
Starting point is 00:33:31 So it would be like the guys on the walls wouldn't have the information about like the inside, right? Or the guys on the inside wouldn't know what the bed chambers looked like, that kind of thing. And then usually in the king's – there was like, I don't know, maybe one or two secret rooms. And most of the time they were supposed to be where the king and his family would hide if, you know, there was an invasion. And it was one of those things where it was really hard to find and then probably had a back exit to get out. But usually what it was is where the king's mistress would live. And then there was a back way so that she could come and go During the day and then stay there at night And the king would be like
Starting point is 00:34:05 Oh yes I've got to go check the taxes And he'd like leave You know that kind of thing And it would be one of those things Like keep it secret from everyone Even the family so only the king knew There's actually oh my god There's a really great story that we did on Chiluminati
Starting point is 00:34:22 About a castle in Scotland that has a secret hidden room. And, you know, up until the 1900s, like in the 1800s, there's this legend of like a monster living in this castle. And everyone thinks supposedly it was maybe a disfigured family member that they hid away in this part of the castle. But no one to this day can find the secret room. Even the wife of the duke at the time, when he was out of town, she got all of her friends together, and they figured, well, it has to have a window, right?
Starting point is 00:34:55 Because it's a castle. They have to have a window to let air in. So we're going to go around with white cloth and hang white cloth out of every single window, and people outside will check and see what windows we have found. And according to the legend, somewhere between, but by the time the Duke came back,
Starting point is 00:35:12 there was either between four, four or less windows unidentified. And they had been everywhere in the castle. Right. So who knows? But then the Duke saw what was going on and was like, what the hell? And divorced her,
Starting point is 00:35:31 which is like, Whoa, there is a secret there somewhere so yeah and uh it has never to this day been found and you can literally go to that castle and go on tours they have a tea room that you can like buy tea and have high tea at it's this real place it's just you know it has there's a lot of secrets that it was like apparently only the the king, his first son, not the king, the duke, his first son and the groundskeeper knew the location of the secret room. And then they, I mean, did they find it? Like, did they get it? They never found it. They never found it. They never found what was hidden there. All they know is that in the late 1800s, early 1900s,
Starting point is 00:36:08 the grandson of the Duke was offering to rent out the castle to people and have people stay there. So they assumed at that point, whatever the thing was, whatever was going on there was over.
Starting point is 00:36:19 If it was a person, that person had died. And so he felt comfortable renting out the space. Huh. But it has never once been looked into. I mean, like, there's been stories, and people have gone there. Like, there was one guy who said that he saw, like, a creature on the walls.
Starting point is 00:36:39 There's one guy who was a doctor who said that at night he was walking down a hallway that he had just like discovered on accident and at the end was a wall just a solid wall but when he put his hand on it the the brick was still wet like it had just been put there and the next day they told him to leave to like go home and uh the groundskeeper there's a story about how a famous opera singer was staying with the you know with the du Duke and the people in the house. And it was snowed that night. And everyone was like, oh, groundskeeper, you can stay for the night. Don't worry about it.
Starting point is 00:37:10 And he was like, no. Like, what do you mean? He's like, no, I'm not going to stay here. I'm like, why? And he's like, I wouldn't stay here if you paid me. This place is like, there's something wrong with it. So it was like a foot and a half of snow or something like that. And he made all the servants dig a path a mile down to his house
Starting point is 00:37:27 rather than stay the night in the castle. That's crazy. Yeah. So it's one of those mysteries where it's like, what was the secret? Who knows? We'll never know. Unless we blast it open with gunpowder. I mean, here's the thing.
Starting point is 00:37:43 We probably could. It doesn't seem very strong. It is a national landmark now, so that's probably going to be trouble, but. We got to convince the Scottish government to blast it open with gunpowder. Blast it open. There was one theory that at some point in the history of that castle, like another clan, like another Scottish clan came to these people for help and then the clan like vanished and so the theory was that the clan came to these people for
Starting point is 00:38:11 help and they saw it as an opportunity so they put all the clansmen in one room and then sealed it up and let them just starve to death and they're like now that territory is ours like i don't there's so many theories about and they're like well maybe that's why everyone was terrified because the secret ever came out. The whole family would be ruined. Like that kind of thing. Oh, yeah. And no one has a clue. All I know is that the grandson, the son that was alive in like 1900, he refused to hear the tale from his father.
Starting point is 00:38:40 Because whatever had happened, when his grandfather told his father father his father changed from being like a happy jovial person to being super depressed and he was like I don't want to know don't tell me and so everyone thinks the story died there but also apparently there's rumors that the family was very theatrical and because
Starting point is 00:39:00 they lived in the middle of nowhere Scotland a lot of people think the whole thing was made up just so people would come visit them in the middle of nowhere Scotland, a lot of people think the whole thing was made up just so people would come visit them in the middle of nowhere. That does also seem plausible. Yeah. There's so many plausible things where it's just like, who knows? We'll never know. But all of them seem like, yeah, that sounds about right. That sounds like that could be true.
Starting point is 00:39:18 Yeah. Oh my god. That's awesome. I know, right? Castles. They're neat. Castles. Castles. Well, you. Castles. Castles. Well, you know what else is neat? Here we go. This is good.

Starting point is 00:44:08 I'm going to start with the cops. Grandeur. Grandeur, how's that traffic out there? Oh, boy. Traffic. Honestly, traffic is pretty standard. There's a lot of cars. There's a lot of backups.
Starting point is 00:44:17 I thought I'd take this time to talk about types of coffees. First up, you have brewed coffee. It's done with gravity in some way. Frequently a cone drip. Then you've got espresso, which is a finer grind of coffee in hot water under pressure. You've got the Americano espresso with water, an attempt to make an espresso about as concentrated as brewed coffee. You've got your cappuccino. That's espresso with a lot of steamed milk. A breakfast-only drink in Italy, as well as a cafe latte.
Starting point is 00:44:44 A cortado is an espresso with a drop of steamed milk, a Spanish drink. A macchiato, that's an Italian name for a cortado. Then you got your mocha, that's hot chocolate with coffee, pretty much. Then you got your frappuccino, which is, I think, possibly invented by Starbucks, according to this, with a lot of iced coffees blended with sugar and stuff. And there you go. Back to you. What about an affogato? I don't know what that is.
Starting point is 00:45:12 You don't know what an affogato... Oh, my crendor. Affogato? Oh, my God. Affogato. Imagine the best... Italian coffee-based dessert. Ooh, imagine delicious ice cream and then one shot of espresso, and then you pour the espresso over the ice cream.
Starting point is 00:45:31 That does sound pretty good. It's very good. It's very good. Speaking of coffee ice cream, Trader Joe's got pretty good coffee ice cream. I don't know that I can handle coffee ice cream. I would enjoy a Trader Joe's Speculoos ice cream. You know what I mean? I think they got that too.
Starting point is 00:45:48 Cookie butter ice cream? Oh, that would be good. I think they actually have that. Oh, now you're making me want to go to Trader Joe's. Cookie butter ice cream. Yeah, they got it. In fact, I think I had it a long time ago. I'm telling you right now, coffee bean blast ice cream Trader Joe's.
Starting point is 00:46:04 It's good. Sounds like too much blast for me. No, no, no, no. So much bean blast. No, it's good. I'm telling you right now. You heard it here first. All right.
Starting point is 00:46:15 Well, you know what else we need to hear? Weather. Weather. Let's go to the old weather. Weather. The old weather weather? The old weather weather. The old weather weather? The old weather weather. Let's see if we got any recommendations here from the last podcast.
Starting point is 00:46:37 Someone said storms are technically worse than depressions. Because there's like tropical depressions tropical storms so actually that must be like a like a drizzle then interesting yeah uh yeah i mean i guess depression is just the um air pressure right oh oh boy now you make me look this up a depression weather depression that's probably not going to be the weather depression meaning. Yeah, an area of low pressure, which moves from west to east in the northern hemisphere. Low pressure systems, cold fronts, warm fronts. Yeah, what happens during a depression?
Starting point is 00:47:21 Air rises in a depression, so clouds and rainfall are formed. Depressions, therefore, bring unsettled weather and rain. Winds are normally stronger. But then a storm, I would imagine, is stronger because that's when it's, like, happening. Oh. Yeah, that does make sense. Yeah, you can always tell. I think most people can tell.
Starting point is 00:47:41 You know that, like, feeling you get right before a storm? I wonder if that's the low-pressure depression. You know what I mean? Yes. You can just tell. The whole area, the weather effect changes. Can't they affect your joints and stuff? It's not a pressure, Cain.
Starting point is 00:48:00 Yeah, I imagine that's why. People are like, oh, before it rains, it rains my leg always acts up it's probably not the rain it's probably the pressure yeah I think you're right um are we talking oh yeah so first the hurricane hitting
Starting point is 00:48:18 Louisiana yes watch out for that one uh I was watching the Weather Channel a bit because they always do the thing where they're like, we're going to go stand in it. And you're like, okay. And then they stand in it.
Starting point is 00:48:33 And then you watch it and it becomes terrifying. It's crazy. And there's like shit flying all over. And I'm like, how has nobody on the Weather Channel gotten injured? Unless they probably have, honestly. Oh, yeah. One time we were watching it for one of the hurricanes or whatever it was, and they were in a building, and behind them just a thing of glass
Starting point is 00:48:50 just flew off and shattered, and they were like, oh, my God, and they cut the commercial. I would, too. I'd be like, you know what? Nah, I'm all right. The one time they were filming, it might have been for this one, some dude just got out of his car and just started running in the hurricane. They started flying away, and they're like, what are you doing?
Starting point is 00:49:10 Get back here. They're like, dude, what are you doing? He started flying away. Yeah. They're like, he's going to get hit by debris or something. Then they got him away, and they're like, dude, what are you doing? So that was weird. That was pretty crazy.
Starting point is 00:49:25 It might have been a tornado, but I think it was a hurricane. I can't believe that. So FEMA tweeted out, at ReadyGov, tweeted out an infographic and it's surviving catastrophic flooding. What a, for something so terrible, This infographic is so It's something you would see like Top five places to eat cheeseburgers In Chicago
Starting point is 00:49:50 Hold on let me send this to you This is crazy Look at this thing It looks like it was designed to tell kids about hurricanes But it is Terrifying when you look at it Oh my god it is Like do not attempt to travel
Starting point is 00:50:07 In flooded areas People escaping flood waters As a last resort do not stay in the attic You could become trapped Literally they're like get on the roof call 911 I like how the dude on the roof is just like Haha I'm calling 911 Right
Starting point is 00:50:20 Man I I heard on The radio that there's an island uh that apparently has only one road leading to it and on the island of all the people that decided to stay 26 were fire and rescue and police officers but then there were just another 26 people that decided to stay there. And I was like, all right, I understand cops and everything. They probably have like a system in place, right? But everyone else, the other 26, sometimes I wish you could just be like, get out.
Starting point is 00:50:58 We're making you leave. It seems like such, I know personal freedoms and whatnot, but come on. You are now putting yourself in danger. What's going to put all these other people in danger? It's crazy to me. I don't know. You're on an island with one road. That road is probably gone now.
Starting point is 00:51:17 Oh, yeah. No, it's definitely gone. Without a doubt. I just can't. You know, I'm like like maybe you should just flee I guess some people don't have the ability to do so but still true too I have to imagine that if the government was doing
Starting point is 00:51:32 its job would be like look we'll put you up in a place get out yeah but they're probably not doing their job you are crap we got a weather request for Muncie, Indiana, home of Garfield the Cat, the Joy of Painting, and Failed Show, Armed and Famous.

Starting point is 00:56:11 Everything's pretty close to where I used to live in Ohio. If you're looking for things no one wants to look at. I don't know. I want to look at that Garfield. Maybe not for long, though. That would give you five minutes of entertainment, and then you like all right yeah you're right i guess we'll go look at the the bob ross museum yeah yeah yeah yeah that's uh the weather yeah that's what it was. All right, let's go to sports.
Starting point is 00:56:45 Sports. There's actually not a whole bunch going on in sports. We got football preseason just ended. Pretty much, you know, it's the preseason. Now the actual season is coming up, so that's what matters most because the games count. Then in the NBA, still about a month away from that happening. At least preseason, I think. Then hockey, still about a month away from that preseason.
Starting point is 00:57:12 And baseball. We're getting towards the end of baseball, but not enough to really go in-depth about it that much. Actually, let's check the standings. We've got to at least see some standings here. I can't believe you have chosen to skip over Gardner Minshew. Oh my god, I almost forgot about it.
Starting point is 00:57:33 You're right. Hold on, let me do the baseball standings first. Tampa Bay Rays, first place. They are at 82-48. Pretty solid. What is that? 5.5 up on the Yankees.
Starting point is 00:57:47 Then you've got the White Sox, 10.5 up on Cleveland. Houston, six games up on Oakland. And you've got Boston and the Yankees fighting for the wild card over there as well as Oakland and Seattle right there. Then in the East, or the NL, you've got Atlanta with Philadelphia 4.5 back. You've got Milwaukee in first in the Central. You've got San Francisco in first in the West, or the NL, you got Atlanta with Philadelphia 4.5 back. You got Milwaukee in first and the Central. You got San Francisco in first and the West with the Dodgers.
Starting point is 00:58:11 Two games back of that. And then the wild card being fought for by the Padres and the Reds. And that is baseball standing. So, like you said, we had big news. Gardner Minshew was traded. That's right. He is now a member of the Philadelphia Eagles. I love that. Yeah, I mean, the quarterback.
Starting point is 00:58:39 Of all the places he could go. That, I think, he actually would start there, I think. It's possible. right now they have their one quarterback, Jalen Hurts. He's not a definitive starter over there. In fact, I think they did this trade because they're kind of needing some insurance in case things go
Starting point is 00:58:58 wrong, which it's very possible because he's had some good games, he's had some bad games, so it's kind of like, I don't know. And he's did... I don't know. And he's done. I don't have any talent at all when it comes to football. So I'm not going to judge anyone. But I would say if you put the two of them side by side, I feel like Minshew is a more talented QB.
Starting point is 00:59:20 I mean, he's definitely played in more games. He has a better mustache. He has a better mullet. I don't know anything about his skill, but he looks better in a cut-off shirt. If you give him a hat that looks like a trucker hat, it means you can wear it better. All I'm saying is the things you need to be a QB, he does well. I mean, here we go. If we are looking at Gardner.
Starting point is 00:59:42 Don't bring stats into this. I'm bringing stats into it because I'm a football nerd. So, if we take a look at this, Jalen Hurts vs. Gardner Minshew. Alright, last year Jalen Hurts had his only year played. It was 1-3 with 1,000 yards, 6 touchdowns,
Starting point is 00:59:57 4 interceptions. Minshew is 7-13 with 5,500 yards, 37 touchdowns, 11 interceptions. So, he's got a better quarterback rating. He's got a higher completion percentage. He's got more experience. Honestly, I think he's better.
Starting point is 01:00:18 That's what I'm saying. So, I wouldn't be too surprised if Minshew starts some games this year or just takes over. Well, I mean, we'll see. We'll see if the world of Philadelphia can handle a good old boy from Florida. We'll see. We'll see real quick. We will see.
Starting point is 01:00:36 I have no idea what's going to happen in that city. That's going to be great. Honestly, I'm right. Plus, it's the NFC East, which is one of the biggest shit show divisions in the entirety of football. He could shine there. Plus, it's the NFC East, which is one of the biggest shitshow divisions in the entirety of football. Oh, yeah. He could shine there. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:00:48 No, it's going to be good. I'm excited. So, that's sports. Okay. What is our weird fact that probably I know but don't actually of the day? Here we go. Oh, big fact of the day. The different colors of Froot Lo Loop cereal all taste the same.
Starting point is 01:01:09 They're not individual flavors. You know what? I think everyone knew that, I think. That, like, you know, in a way, you may not have known it, but you, like, understood it. Because when it goes in the bowl, it all tastes the same. Yeah, but it does mess with your mind a bit. I've had some thoughts where I was like, you know what, I don't think they're
Starting point is 01:01:29 different tastes, but sometimes you look and you're like, maybe they got a little bit of different taste to them. Do you think it's because of the color? Because we eat with our eyes. It is. It's definitely the color. Because you see they're different with the colors and you're like, well, they gotta have different flavors. Like Skittles, you know? Like you got different flavored Skittles're like, well, they got to have different flavor, like Skittles.
Starting point is 01:01:46 You got different flavored Skittles. I guess M&M's don't, but still, some people still are like, I want the green M&M's, but it literally tastes the same. I mean, I don't know the Skittles world. I don't do nothing with Skittles. I don't mess with Skittles. They're too sugary for me. I used to eat Skittles, but then I haven't really eaten Skittles. But I heard that they got rid of Lime Skittles, which those are one of the best flavors.
Starting point is 01:02:16 They don't have green Skittles anymore? They have green, but now they're like green apple Skittles. Nobody wants green apple Skittles. You want Lime Skittles. No more Lime Skittles. Lime Skittles are back, but only for a limited time. Limited time? May 21st, 2021. Bring them back.
Starting point is 01:02:31 Says they are. It says they're back for a limited time. Oh, never mind. In the form of all lime Skittles. What the hell? That's too much lime. That's far too much lime. The whole point of the lime is you blend it in with all the other Skittle flavors so you get a good balance.
Starting point is 01:02:47 Who is running this Skittles company? I mean, someone who doesn't understand Skittles. I'm starting to wonder if most people understand any of the products they actually sell. I feel like at a certain point, everything that becomes big is taken over by people who don't quite get it. And then they're just like, make us money. Right? Yeah, I think you're right. Well, now, here's the thing.
Starting point is 01:03:11 I don't know if I've even tried a green apple Skittle. I don't really want one, though. But maybe now I should go out and buy a lime and a green apple and then do a taste test. Between a lime and the actual concept of a lime and a green apple? Of a Skittle. Because you Cause you gotta see which one blends Good luck with all that I don't know if that will work but I mean you know
Starting point is 01:03:35 We each gotta do our own scientific research The science is out We'll wait for you to figure it out for us I will I'll be the scientist here I'll figure it out You will forget two minutes after this podcast ends. Probably, yeah. But as of right now, I'm pretty excited to do this taste test. All right.
Starting point is 01:03:53 I believe in you. That's a random fact. All right. What's our big news story of the day? Big news story of the day. Who puts a cow in a Buick? A cow spotted in the backseat at McDonald's drive-thru. Who puts a cow in a Buick?
Starting point is 01:04:11 So here it is. Is there a photo? Oh, my God. That is a cow in a car. How did it get in there? Is it alive? I guess we're going to learn. Where do you think this happened at?
Starting point is 01:04:26 I'm going to say Cal, Florida. No, that's a guess for randomness of it, but we're thinking there. Minnesota. Close. Wisconsin. You know what? Cheese was involved, of course. Exactly.
Starting point is 01:04:43 It's got to be Wisconsin. You know what? Cheese was involved, of course. Exactly. It's got to be Wisconsin. Spotted in a car at McDonald's drive-thru in Wisconsin. In Wisconsin. A cow. All of it. Jessica Nelson of Mocenie pulled into the drive-thru at McDonald's in Marshfield on Thursday and she looked up to see a cow in the backseat of a Buick sedan three cars ahead of her. I thought it was fake at first. Who puts a cow in a Buick, she told the Associated Press.
Starting point is 01:05:08 Then its whole head moved. Oh my god. She quickly picked up her phone and shot a video of the bovine. Wait, what was her order? I don't know. The cow's order or her order? Would it be weird if you pulled into
Starting point is 01:05:24 a burger place and got a burger with a cow in her back order? Would it be weird if you pulled into a burger place and got a burger with a cow in your backseat? Would that be strange? That would be kind of weird, yeah. It could have been his friends and family. You don't know. That's what I'm saying. It's a little weird.
Starting point is 01:05:38 I just took the video because I was blown away. There was a cow in the back of a Buick. She posted the video on her Facebook page with the caption, a whole freaking cow. Tell me you live in Wisconsin without telling me you live in Wisconsin. I love that my very part just keeps mentioning there was a cow in the back of a Buick as if for some reason any other car would be acceptable. Like, why would you put a cow in a Buick?
Starting point is 01:06:02 That doesn't make any sense. That's a Jeep animal, for sure. So, we've got some reasoning behind it. Nelson said that the family of the cow's owner saw the post and contacted her. They said that the cow was actually a calf. She said the owner had just purchased it and two other calves, which were in the back seat as well, but were lying down out of sight. What?
Starting point is 01:06:27 At an auction. They, they, what? So they went to an auction, four cows, got three calves, and were like, well, we didn't bring a trailer. Throw them in the back. Yeah. I'm looking at this image, and this calf is, its head is the size of the armrest. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:06:51 Or like the headrest in the back. Yeah. All I'm saying is, if there are three others in there, they were like, that doesn't seem comfortable at all. At least there's two others. But still, that's a tight fit. Yeah, it doesn't seem, I don't know. It is Wisconsin, that's what I mean. They're like, oh, get in there, eh?
Starting point is 01:07:13 You can do it there, okay. You like cheese? You're going to make lots of cheese for me, okay? Yeah, I mean, I've been to Wisconsin many a times. It's pretty spot on. Great. Yeah, that checks, I've been to Wisconsin many a times, and it's pretty spot on. Great. Yeah, that checks out. Yeah.
