Today's episode is brought to by Uncommon Goods.
Uncommon Goods has got the right gifts for those uncommon friends and family.
Now let's jump into this podcast.
Hello, everybody. It's time for Cos and Trent Dog.
I'll listen to Red Dog in the morning.
In the morning.
The podcast is long, live, live, live, live, live.
In 4-hour reporting studio, recorded.
Hey, Krenner, the morning!
Hello, everybody's exciting episode of Gags and Krendor in the morning.
Hello, it's Black Friday.
It is, and I went out in it.
I woke up early after I did Geekenders.
I went out.
I was ready to go, see the world.
Nothing, Krenor, nothing.
Yeah, I mean, what did you see?
So I went to two malls in the area.
The one mall that you and I went to that one time, and the other one that's kind of like the more hip, cool, young kid mall.
No one was out.
There were people, sure, but like there was parking, if that says anything.
You know what I mean?
And so, yeah, it's kind of a letdown and went around and tried to look at all the different deals.
Nothing.
I did, however, go to, what is that, the bath and body works, whatever that place is, the scent candle place.
Yep, that's it.
And I like their hand sanitizers because they smell nice.
So I bought some of the little tiny ones and I put in my pocket whenever I travel around.
Were they on sale?
They were.
They were on.
Usually they're like a, you know, buy three, get one free or some nonsense.
But the ones they had there were like four for five bucks.
And I was like, that's a steal.
I'm buying four of these right now.
Yeah.
And this economy?
Yeah.
So I did that.
But like, other than that, I went around and looked at all the different things.
It's like, it was just, it seemed like a normal day, which breaks my heart because Black Friday every year has gotten lamer and lamer and is now just kind of an online thing, really.
I get more Black Friday emails from companies I didn't remember I had bought from.
Like what?
Oh my God, I deleted a bunch of them today.
Hold on.
Let me go, let me go to my email.
Virgin Atlantic wanted me to save $200, but I have to act right now.
The Peacock Theater wanted to remind me that their big Black Friday sales starts right now.
spectrum want to remind me that there's black friday deals um emerson colonial theater
hit me up good morning from inside apple i don't even remember i don't know what that is
one eight hundred flowers bloomberg lens crafter hulu stream elements avanti west coast i don't
I've used that exactly one time in my entire life.
Like, there's just so much.
I can keep going.
I mean, it's really a thing where if somebody doesn't have a Black Friday deal, it's more surprising.
Right.
I'm just shocked with how much, and that's on one of my three emails.
I bet if I go look at another, it'll be equally insane.
Like, it's just so much.
That's fine.
I can press delete.
That's easy.
I'm not too stressed.
Streamally Live presents mystery.
black boxes. This is where we're at.
I'm just getting, like, I went back
to my email that was clear, and I already had two more
emails. Hilton honors.
Awesome. Cool. Great.
Yeah, it's
honestly, here's the thing. It's like,
Black Friday deals, I mean, even on this show
10 years ago, it used to be primarily
you had to go in person, you get the
door busters, you buy a
TV for like
a cheap price, right? You do all
this stuff. People are trampling each other,
like as we've grown in the online commerce society, it's just like, everybody can just sit at home.
And like, if anything, people probably buy more at home because you're just sitting there like,
ooh, there's a deal.
Ooh, there's a deal.
I mean, even on top all that, like, people, what's the big thing?
People always be like a new TV.
Now you get like a 50 inch TV for like 40 bucks.
Like that's like year around.
Like TVs are like nothing now compared to what they used to be.
like yeah it's it's wild i also am curious if just in general people are spending less this year
i would imagine if you're like if you're gonna spend all year saying i don't have money
it's a weird time to be like you know what i found some extra cash you know what i mean like
you know maybe the tv can wait yeah and i mean like i said you can you can really get a good
tv like cheap year-round at this point so yeah it's it's it's it
It's not what it used to be.
And, you know, it's, it's probably good, obviously.
It's like, people aren't trampling each other.
You know, people aren't, like, running into each other, run over things.
The actual workers at the store have a much better time.
They're not having to deal with all that.
They also don't have to, like, make up it.
That's the thing, right?
But the spectacle.
Like, even last night after Thanksgiving, I was like, man, it'd be cool if, like,
I could go at midnight to somewhere and walk around.
Because that used to be the thing.
You just go at midnight.
Like the mall would be open all day.
Now it's just like, everything opens like 6 a.m.
And I'm like, well, I don't care.
The spectacle's gone.
It used to be, you'd see crazy people fighting over stuff
or you'd see families of like 80 walking around.
Yeah.
Honestly, the closest thing to the spectacle.
And I realized this yesterday during Thanksgiving.
My parents and I have stopped making food at home for Thanksgiving
or like major holidays.
We'll just go somewhere.
It's so much easier.
There's only the three of them.
us most of the time, right?
So I will go with them wherever they want to eat.
It's chill.
I enjoy tremendously.
But I did notice that when you go out, and I don't know, I assume you don't go out,
assume you have the family over or whatever, you go somewhere.
So for everyone else who has gone out, you can verify this, but for you, I say one year go
out because it is the best people watching you will ever see.
because I firmly believe Thanksgiving is the one time of year where you know how when families get together at home, they act a fool?
You know what I mean?
Like they're talking loudly and they're having these kind of like, all right, imagine that scenario.
Like you're eating at home and everyone's hyper comfortable.
Now just take that to a restaurant.
Thanksgiving is the one time of year where you can watch the same family that would,
act a fool at home, do the exact same thing in a restaurant, where normally they would be
reserved, they would tell the kids to, you know, be polite and respectful or whatever.
Nope.
It is completely full on display these families in their natural habitat, except it's out at a
restaurant.
It's like bringing the zoo to you.
It's great.
I sat there with my parents.
We were watching all the families.
There was one family.
my man it was so funny
there was a bunch of kids
right and in this family
and there was a bunch of old people and whatever
but there was clearly the one mom
who was taking care of all the kids
I don't know if all the kids were hers
but she was the one mom who was
I'll take care of the kids
right but this this woman
who seemed I would say like
mid 20s maybe early 30s
she was wearing like a pencil
skirt like one of those like kind of
I don't even know how you're like very
tight secretary skirts the entire time.
And because she's dealing with the kids,
she's bent over half the time
and just flash an ass to the entire restaurant.
My dad was like, look at this lady.
And my mom was like, you're just like looking at her butt.
And he's like, hey, yummy, you know, right?
She was constantly hunched over,
ass just out to everyone.
You know she knew it.
Sure, it didn't matter.
No one said a thing.
Everyone was like, it's Thanksgiving.
There was one group where it was this family of four
And they were sitting at the square table
But they wanted to make it a round table
So they could have more space
They tried to lift up the under parts of it
From this restaurant
And they just couldn't get it to work
To the point where it became like a whole scene
Where the table looked like it was going to collapse on itself
And so the waiters had to come over
I got to watch that
There was this family next to us
That ordered a Thanksgiving meal
And then ordered another
second Thanksgiving meal
it'll take home. And my dad couldn't
fathom. He was like, they ate so much. What are
they going to do with that? And I was like, they make it hungry later.
And he's like, how do you get hungry later?
It was great. It was great.
The whole day was
amazing.
I did not realize
how much I enjoyed
specifically going out to eat on Thanksgiving.
Yeah. I mean, that does sound like
it would be an experience. Just the
people watch, honestly. I mean,
we did go out for brunch
a few days ago
because we were like oh it'll be fun it's always
like everyone's off and going to brunch and stuff like
that and it was like pretty normal
but there were two guys
walking out and I don't
know what they were talking about I don't know anything
but the one guy is they're passing he goes like
hold out there
right down you said I don't know anything
someone clip that
I don't know anything I don't know anything
I really don't
the guy's walking out and he's like
Wackos, man. Wackos. And the other guy goes, yeah, these wackos.
That was it. But they said it so loud as they walk past it. It was just like two
standard Chicago meatball men.
I mean, he's just like wackos. What do you think they were talking about though?
Yeah, I have no idea. Without any knowledge, what was going on? What do you think was going on there?
If I had the guess, I would just say it's probably like, they're probably talking about like drivers.
or like people at Costco or some shit like that
like these wackos man
wackos man
wackos whackos
I had to write that was just like dude
wackos
I will say I also wrote down a thing
while driving in the car the other day
and it is such a
I'm just going to
verbatim read you what the commercial said
all right
so a guy comes on and he's like
cats love to use up their nine lives
from chasing laser pointers into walls
and then it has the sound of a like a cat going
like scurry scurry scurry and hits a wall
to climbing up high on bookshelves
and then the cat gets and then a bookshelf falls over
but you know what cats won't waste their nine lives on
pause
what do you think he's about to say Crendor
it's going to be some crazy shit like jewelry
You know what cats won't waste their nine lives on?
Texting while driving.
Be like a cat.
Don't text and drive.
I was like, what?
Honestly, that makes more sense than what I said.
I mean, I just imagine just like saying some random as shit.
So I've seen that before.
There's like, you know what cats won't waste their nine lives on?
The Black Friday deals at the jeweler's outlet.
Like shit like that.
But I guess they would want cats to.
waste their lives on that.
The implication that cats could text
and they would also be able to
drive is very high
so we're already into some like furry
territory but then the fact
they're like, but cats not even that stupid
don't text and drive
and then they end again
be like a cat
don't text and drive
be like a cat
don't drive at all I guess
yeah I was like oh okay
Sure. Great.
For some reason that got me and I laughed really hard, but yeah.
I think radio ads are just a lot of those ads in general, I have to get the most creative.
And I feel like they do.
I mean, it's like, it's like Mike Diamond, right?
Good old Mike Diamond.
Yeah, I don't know what's going on with Mike Diamond.
I see his cars maybe like once every month now.
I used to see him all the time.
Well, is it like the same as it used to be?
or if they changed or they rebranded?
I don't listen to the normal radio anymore.
I just do like internet radio stuff
because I don't want to hear a lot of ads.
Like every once in a while I'll get like an ad.
But I don't want to sit through, you know,
terrestrial radio is like,
here's seven minutes of songs followed by 45 minutes of ads.
And you're like, this sucks.
I hate this.
Yeah, no.
For anybody that's always like,
I hate listening to ads or whatever.
YouTube or like any of this like dude just remember go to like go to radio you'll just watch like a
football game you'll just like and here's your two minutes uh whatever you want to hear watch
and 10 minutes ads and it's like okay Twitch is I have it at five minutes of ads every hour
to give you an example um on normal TV at least here in the States
TV shows are 22 minutes long if they're 30 minute show because they're
eight minutes of ads per 30 minutes.
Hmm.
So like just let that, like, you're still getting a relatively good deal on Twitch.
Let that sink in.
And even then, it's like, it's still a lot, but.
Yeah, like I don't want to see ads, but comparatively, it is what it is, man.
Yeah, no, comparatively, it really is vastly superior.
At least, like, you can, a lot of those are, like, YouTube, you can, like, skip them.
Like, you can't skip commercials or radio ads.
Yeah.
Yeah, I mean, unless you have, you know, one of those TiVo services, which bless those things, they're the best.
But also, I, I'm not watching a lot of TV, so, you know.
Aren't you watching the, are you still watching the Hell's Kitchen or whatever?
Oh, I was, I finished it.
I finished it all.
And that was on my phone.
So I just finished it.
Yeah.
I ran out of them and, yeah, I started reading some books.
And then, uh, when I.
when I work out, either I'm watching you react to
too old for this or
one of the TV shows
because I still have
HBO and Amazon
so I'll either watch something on one of those
but other than that I can't be asked to find out when stuff's
on cable TV like cable comes with my apartment complex
I have it and every once in a while maybe
if there's something live going on, I'll watch it.
But other than that,
unless it's a time that I know,
oh, that show comes on at that time,
I'm not going to find your show.
I'm not going to sit there and look through the guide
on the TV and try to figure it out.
If I don't know you already,
just like phones,
if I don't recognize your number,
I'm not picking up.
Just like, if I don't know your TV show,
you can't get me to watch.
It's just the way it is.
And more importantly,
now when people recommend me stuff,
I ask, how many seasons is it?
Is it done?
was it canceled?
Yeah.
Because I don't want to watch a show that could potentially be canceled or was canceled.
I'm like, no, I need my complete story.
If I don't get that, I don't give a shit.
Oh, no, I'm trying to think because, I mean, even things where it's not finished,
it could end up like Game of Thrones or you just wait for forever, right?
Yeah, I'm absolutely like, look, I only have so much time.
I'd rather wait for a show to be complete and then go back and watch it after the fact while I do stuff.
so I can be like
okay I have an objective
I'll finish this show
boom we're done
and I and I've you know
I've had some time to go back
and watch some things
plus they just released
the new season of Stranger Things
so I think there's a few things on Netflix
that I may be like oh
and the new
Knives Out thing movie
the third movie
and so I'm like all right
well maybe in December I'll rent Netflix
like that kind of thing
yeah
and then I will absolutely
get rid of it when I'm done watching
those things. And, you know, so far
that's been the way to go. I'm like, oh, there's
about eight things I want to watch on that service. Great.
I'm going to rent that.
Yeah, I mean, it's one of those things, too,
where they always try to get you with these deals
where they'll be like, sign up for a year.
It was one of the emails I had. They were like, please come back.
I was like, no. Yeah, they're like, come
back, sign up for a year, sign up for all the shit. And it's like,
I'm going to do a month, and then I'm going to cancel it.
And then I'm going to wait. And then I'll eventually
do another one. But then sometimes they're like,
How about half price for another month on us?
Or how about a free month on us?
And I'm like, ooh.
So I tried to do that with HBO because I was like, I'm going to cancel it.
And then I cancel it.
It just canceled.
And I was like, shit, dude.
Normally I get my like free like month or like three half price months.
They didn't do it.
So I was upset.
You tried to play their game.
And HBO was like, no, we're good.
Yeah.
Jokes on them.
I cancel.
Maybe they'll have a Black Friday come back and then I'll come back.
We did watch.
we've had Disney Plus a bit
we've watched a bunch of Disney movies
we watched Alice in Wonderland
because I've never actually seen
the Disney Alice in Wonderland
Oh sure okay
It's a classic
Yeah it was fun
I didn't
I didn't know what to expect
It was a little all over the place
And here's okay
I know it's based off
You're talking about the animated one right
Not the Johnny Depp one
No
I've heard that one's bad
Alice
It was like this is based on a book right
Yes
Alice is so
nonchalant for what's happening
It's just like she falls down
The whole her cat's just like dude
You're falling and she's like
Okay here we go
And he's just like the hell
And then she's like
Like going through the place
She's just like hmm that's rather interesting
You're like yes let me help you
I'd be freaking out
I'd be like what the hell is going
Like I don't know
I just I don't mind if she does that sometime
But it's it felt like
She was like that the whole movie, except for like the two times that she cried.
This is tough because I wish I had some sort of feedback to give you,
but I haven't seen the animation in so long.
And I've seen so many other Alice in Wonderland-esque things or just other retellings.
Okay.
That they all kind of blend together.
And I don't remember what's from what.
So when you describe stuff about the animated Alice in Wonderland, I am like, oh, okay.
Because honestly, also there's the sequel as well, which I think,
you would actually enjoy.
I don't think it was ever animated,
but there is a follow-up.
Although maybe the animation you watched
has some features of that in it.
I don't remember.
I mean, they had Tweedledee and Tweedledum or whatever.
Sure, sure, sure.
And I think they're in the original as well.
But I mean, like, I don't know if they had adapted
all of the works into the movie.
It's been so long since I've seen the, you know,
Alice of Wonderland animated film.
Yeah.
No, it's, uh, I guess I don't know if I'd be like, you gotta go watch it.
Like, it's all right if you're, it's also one of those things.
It's like the old timey Disney movie, right?
Sure.
It's just like, and here we are in Alice in the And you're just like, all right.
Yes.
I don't know.
Uh, you got to be in the mood for that type of thing.
Agreed.
Same with like Snow White and those kinds of things.
The older movie, Cinderella, I'm like, all right, okay.
Yeah.
So, you know, it's still fun.
Then, uh, what was like it up?
Oh, yeah, I wanted to bring up, speaking of the, uh, the too old for this.
Uh, the, God, which one was it?
Uh, the, the, the book talk.
Yes. Okay.
Because that one was truly insane.
Uh, dude, apparently it has ballooned into even more stuff.
Really?
What?
People keep messaging me, be like,
oh my god you got to go back and look up
more about what's happened after that
I'm like I'm not sure I want to
well I know she's like
we're revamping the entire
book it's like you should do that from the start
there's a whole thing
so for those of you don't know
Crenor and I reacted to this thing about
a book called
Age of Scorpius it's on book talk
and apparently it's just not very good
but the author has
essentially tried to create kind of
like a Tolkien-esque or, you know, Harry Potter verse kind of thing off of one poorly received
book and is not responding very well and it keeps escalating and, you know, just the nature
of the internet.
Anyway, apparently since then, the author has, like, left the country.
Yeah, there's, like, people are you take the money?
What happened?
released long
you know
videos and
written essays and things like that
but not actually done anything
to improve the book
essentially
and so it's just more and more drama
and I'm like yeah I don't know
that I need to be updated on that
I got enough
but if you have another one
like another book
that's equally weird
I'll do that
because I know
yo dude
I was informed of one book
and I almost wanted to look it up
but it's a little too
risque for YouTube but
premise wise
it's about
a girl I was about to say
crows but it is but it's about
a girl who
is abducted by
a raven lord I think
and the raven lord and
some other guy
who his
mate was killed
so he simps really hard
for this one girl but the raven
lord guy is into her two
So basically, as far as I can tell, imagine twilight, except instead of, will they, won't they, vampire,
werewolf stuff.
It's just two Ravenlord dudes and a girl, and then the three of them bang like crazy the entire time.
Like, it is basically every fetish imaginable is included in this thing.
And I was like, how is this?
and by the way
everyone's like it's terrible
but everyone keeps buying it
because it's just pure smut
I'm like
I can't do a video on this
however
I'm fascinated by it
that's the kind of stuff
I'm that kind of thing
over on
book talk
by the way
the final line
of the book
is ca caw
what
like the Ravenlord guy
there's a big reveal
at the end
about you know
like why he did everything he did
and he has like a smug
two camera
caw caw like a raven
and I was like
what the hell
is this so again
there's many things out there
that I want to cover but there's also some things
like for example the one episode we just did
about the semen
retention guy
there's a lot of his videos that I wanted to cover
but some of them I simply could not
yeah
well let's
That one, like, you probably watched me react to that one.
But, like, that guy, you kept being like, this guy doesn't get women.
But, like, I'm pretty sure this guy does get women, just not in the meaningful relationship type of way.
Yeah, okay, I saw that, and I will concede, you're probably correct.
I think what I meant in the moment was actual relationships.
I think you're right.
I bet he could go to a club and put some game on a girl.
and like take her home.
But anyone who spends any time
talking with him as a human
is he'll be like this guy's a creep.
So yeah, that's what I meant.
That's the straight up thing of like
they meet in a club.
There's like, wow, he's got like a deeper voice.
He's like, hello, it's me, the British man.
I'm very stoic.
I'm eating fruit with my knife.
Then they go back home and then they're just like,
all right, let's get it on.
And they're like, get it on.
He's like, by the way, I don't ejaculate.
I retain my seat.
Like, oh, okay, okay, all right, then.
Yeah, like that's...
Yes.
Yeah.
And then he makes his videos, and then there's people that are actually being like,
how do I find a woman?
There's like, all right, this seems like a confident guy.
And then, you know...
Honestly, that's the one thing I think you're absolutely correct on.
You said it in your reaction is every single dude who kind of blows up on YouTube
honestly has that
if you have a deep voice
and accent and you have confidence
you'll be so powerful
in the world of entertainment
it's crazy
the amount of people I can name
who hit deep voice confident
and like accent
and are doing well
is too high
yep
like imagine if the same guy
was just like
um so the seaman retention
instead they'd be like
what the hell is this
Anyway, I want to bring up the book talk thing because I started working on my book again.
And then I know when I replied, a lot of people were talking about, they're like, Crendor's writing a book or whatever.
And it's true.
Because I've learned a lot about writing.
Even if I'm not good at writing still, I know a lot about it.
All right?
And as soon as I watched that book talk video, I was like, I know what this is going to be.
She built a world.
She's bad at writing.
she promised everybody this shit
and then it's bad
and that's literally what it was
because it's like so many people
if you go on even just like fantasy writing
Reddit or all these things people be like
dude I got such good ideas
I have an amazing world I've built
I've done all this stuff and it's like
none of that matters
unless you can tell a good story
because you don't need a world
you don't need the world build
to tell a good story like you can just
make it up and then you know
there's no depth behind the curtains
you're essentially taking somebody on like the North
Korean tour. The saddest thing is watching an author be so passionate about something they've
worked on, but having no real, I don't want to say no real feedback, pre-publishing, or, because
the word was that there was an editor who was like, this is not ready for prime time. And then
the author was like, I don't care. But you would imagine, I guess. I guess. I guess.
Yes, yeah, maybe because being 12 and working on it for so long,
you think you know it so well that you don't want to take other people's advice
on what you should change or what you should do
because it's so ingrained in your personality.
Either way, I just felt bad for the whole situation
because it's like, yeah, it's pretty obvious.
This is tied emotionally to this person.
This is who they are.
And if you tell them it sucks, you're taking away who they are from them.
Yeah.
That's why to me it spoke very much.
much like a
because people are just saying like
well she needs to find like other hobbies or
escapes and I'm like to me this was her hobby
right like this was her escape
and so it just became
something where she's like hey I could probably like
make money off this like I've worked
on this for years like this world's
amazing and then she just probably
kind of got into her own head
which she also seems like the type of person
to get into her own head be like this is awesome
right so like you probably just keep doing
that and so it becomes your
hobby essentially becomes your job and then it's kind of that dream everyone talks about where you're like dude I'm living my dream like my dream's coming true and then everyone's like this sucks right and so it's like that kind of you've destroyed your hobby you destroyed your job and now your dreams crashing so it's like I get her crash out but at the same time she's also she was living in the la la land over there there was a little delusion there for sure but it's also one of those things where I uh yeah
I it just there's no way
someone that young
who again we don't know anything about this person
but there was a vibe of like I live in the middle of nowhere
and I'm kind of like
I got no one
you know like there was a vibe to it
and this world is all that I have
and so I feel bad that everyone's like your world sucks
but that said
the way it's all being handled is kind of like
genuinely seems crazy to me
yeah it is
just like even just being like
I got the studio
and I got it's like what
animators and shit
like even just write it
like the basic fundamentals
of writing seemed to lack
or it was just
you know she probably is like
grammatical things
and like just poor sentence structure
and like so many things
you have to just like learn over time
that she clearly didn't learn
but that's why
I would love to see more book talk reactions
Because I want to see more, not like complete disasters like this, but just like interesting book talk stuff.
So I think that's interesting.
Yeah, yeah.
I'm, I have a few things I want to cover that are along those lines that are kind of, like, I found a thing that I don't quite understand.
I'm not going to share it here because then people will just message me and be like, because I haven't recorded it yet.
I'm like, here's what it is.
It's like, no, no, no, I'd rather watch and learn.
Yeah.
But yeah, there's some things, you know, like book talk I knew existed, but hadn't delved into.
And so now having this whole other space to mess around in of like weird subgenres of TikTok, I'm learning things.
Yeah.
And honestly, it's pretty fun.
So I've enjoyed all these reactions.
I haven't reacted to your latest one.
I don't even know what it is, because I've been busy.
Oh, five nights at Freddy's.
Okay.
Yeah.
So I got to do that.
We may end up having to watch the movie.
movie, just letting you know.
All right, fantastic.
Because I was like, do I have to watch this movie?
And I haven't read what people said.
So maybe they're like, yes, I don't know.
Yeah, it's, I remember five nights at Freddy's coming out and just being like, you know,
whatever.
I didn't realize it was going to become this insane, like, thing.
Yeah, my reaction is to the trailer for the new movie, but then more importantly,
because they don't understand it, some dude giving a breakdown.
And I am just so impressed by.
how, you know, like when I talk about things I love or you talk about things you love, same vibe, but just with this thing, I have no clue what he's talking about.
So I'm like, oh, yeah, this is this thing. This is. I'm like, who is that? What is that?
So, yeah. Yeah, no, that's, it truly is when it's something like that or it's just, uh, they're just like, let me break down the intricacies of Freddie Fosbear and the whatever said. I'm just like, I didn't know there was. Like what?
Exactly. I'm like, oh, I didn't know clue that was a thing. All right. Great. Yeah. So, it'll be fun.
Yes, yes.
But, you know, what else is fun?

Luckily, no chapter copters are rivaling our chapter copter after the installation of the chapter force field.
So we're all good up here.
Back to you.
Thanks, Grendor.
Now let's go over to Crenther at the Weather Desk.
How's that weather?
You just call me crether?
Uh, maybe.
All right, fair enough.
Maybe I did, I don't know.
Uh, weather time.
We've got weather.
You're asking for a lot if you want me to figure out what the hell I just said.
That's fair.
Charlotte Town, P-E-I, Canada.
Yes, people...
Oh, is this a place we talked about last week?
Yes, people live there, Crenthor.
It is one of the provinces of Canada and the downtown is nearly two blocks wide.
there be a beautiful quay
dirt so fill
like there'd be a beautiful quay
dirt so filled with iron
it's red
stains everything white
and beaches are popular tourist spots
though the ice storm a few years back
knocked down all the rock spires
that emerged above the water
popular things are cows ice cream
and anne of green gables
all right
uh huh
okay
sure
so here we oh yeah prince Edward Island
there we go Charlotte's town
Feels like 28 degrees Fahrenheit
And it's 35 degrees Fahrenheit
Little colder than it actually is
7.31 a.m. sunrise 4.29 p.m. sunset
88% humidity, 29.5.8 inches of pressure. 10 miles visibility. 10 mile an hour
wins. Due point 32, UV index zero and a waxing gibbis
moon phase. Taking a look at the 10 day.
We got Saturday partly cloudy, 35, Sunday 33 with clouds,
Monday 45 with rain Tuesday 32 clouds Wednesday 35 with snow and wind Thursday 35 snow showers
Friday 19 partly cloudy Saturday 30 snow showers Sunday 27 mostly cloudy and Monday 32 with snow showers
I was going to be like uh well yeah you know you're right this it's small there's not much going
on uh you know it's got a nice beach front but then you see the photos and it looks cold as hell
that's great but then
Oh, Krendor, but then I discovered that they are, they actually, you know what?
Kind of popping off downtown.
I know you don't think so.
But first off, I just want to say, shout out to Founders Food Hall and Market.
I love places like this where it's like 15 different restaurants in one.
Big fan, looks really cozy, super cool.
And then right near that, they're rocking like Vietnamese,
food and bistros and like all sorts of fun stuff downtown i thought it was going to be like
you know two streets of jays diner but they got to it looks very nice there's a lot it
actually is really cool downtown it actually is yeah they got a lot i'm looking through as well
let's see yeah you got church hill arms yeah all the different uh hotels and things look really
Like there's the ship right in or the Dundee arms.
There's some fun little places to stay.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, is there actually a really nice area?
Look at that.
That's what I'm saying.
This would be a fun place to walk through.
Yeah.
Tim Hortons, of course.
Yeah, I mean, look, you can't say it's a small town.
There's a Wendy's next to a Tim Horton's next to a Starbucks, next to an AW Canada,
next to a Little Caesars.
Not small, if that's the case.
Yeah, definitely not
I mean, it said like two blocks
The thing, they're like, yeah, it's a couple blocks
This is like a full-on place
Yeah
I will say
I lived in Ohio
I've been in town smaller than this
Yeah
Is this like the biggest place
In Prince Edward Island?
It looks like there's some other stuff
It must be because when you scroll out far enough
It's the only one that's that
shows still
Oh, yeah, I think you're right
There's a
There's a place over
There's Somerside
On the northwestern
Part
True, but that looks
Much smaller
By comparison
Yeah, no, I think this is the biggest area
Although shout to the House of Spice
Yeah, Indian
I love that
I'm here for it
You know, famous peppers
The place is famous
This place is famous for peppers
Oh, I see, it's a pizza place
I guess that makes sense
And well, I guess they got other stuff
But mainly pizza looks like
I am a lot of things have strange names
Like the loyalist country
I have questions about some of these names
And what it actually means
In relation to Canada
but like, yeah, okay.
Yeah, no, this is, this is interesting.
Yeah, I'm learning a lot about Canada just through our weather segments.
I'm also learning about the fact that I shouldn't assume things about places
because I just found a school called the College of Piping and,
and in my mind I was like, oh, it's like a technical institute.
I click it and there are people dancing.
and playing instruments, and only then did I realize it's the College of Piping and Celtic
Performing Arts Center, which I assume they mean piping like bagpipes, maybe?
Yeah, I think yours.
It's a performing arts college, and that's not what I thought it was at all.
Yeah, there you go.
When you assume, you make an ass out of you and Ming.
Yep.
Like we learned.
And Ming, as we've learned.
Yeah.
And that's the weather.
Okay, let's go to sports
Sports, sports, sports
We've got sports
Sports
Sports
All right, our sports
We've got them
Are currently
Don't worry
We've got them
We have them
Let's see
The NFL obviously happened over Thanksgiving
We had the Packers
Beat the Lions
Yippee
We had the Cowboys beat the Chiefs
and the Bengals beat the Ravens, shockingly.
And then today, the Bears beat the Eagles, another shocking one.
Then in the NBA, we got the Pistons still in first place at 15 and 3.
With the Raptors Heat and Knicks right behind them.
And then we've got the Thunder still 18 and 1.
They've only lost a game still with the Lakers, the Nuggets, and the Rockets right behind them.
in the hockey.
Wee.
We've got
Tampa Bay Lightning in
first place.
The New Jersey Devils
and the hurricane
fighting it out
for first place.
The avalanche still
way up in first place
and the Anaheim ducks
in first place.
And don't like now
we're only
I think two months
away from
Winter Olympics.
We're getting close.
We're so close.
We're like right there.
Yeah, we're like right there.
But not quite.
But not quite
But not quite
And that's
Borgie dokey
What is our fact of the day
Fact of the day
Fact of the day
Yep
Fact of the day
Dut do that da da da da da da
Uh
All right there we go
Fact
An espresso maker was sent into space
in 2015
Coffee lovers will appreciate this interesting space fact.
Italian Samantha Christoforetti
was the first astronaut to have this warm and cozy piece of home while in orbit.
The European Space Agency worked with Italian engineering firm Argetek
and coffee manufacturer Lavaza to get the ISS espresso coffee maker and pod capsules into space.
Okay, I was curious because in my mind I'm like,
how on earth do you make espresso in space?
But if it's some sort of like an espresso pod situation, I guess if you put the pod in and you have water pumping to it, you can kind of squirt out the espresso into maybe like a container that isn't a cup, you know what I mean?
Like it's a container that you can then squirt in your mouth or something.
I'm trying to figure out how it wouldn't go everywhere in space.
Yeah.
No, I, they must have used some super space technology because.
Yeah, that's like the Velcro of coffee.
There's like, that's space tech.
Yeah, that's space deck right there.
So yeah, there you go.
Look at that.
Espresso in space.
That's your fact of the day.
Okay.
Who has come to us with tears in their eyes?
Dear illustrious sirs, I come to you with tears in my eyes and poor timekeeping on my mind.
What is the Cox and Crendor method of achieving synchronicity?
I hate this.
Thank you so much.
that is a reference to the last episode of tool for this
and how through mind over matter
you could or whatever he was talking about
and not jerking it you can achieve synchronicity
which is not a thing you can achieve
I was like what do you mean achieve synchronicity
yeah that's he had the it's like vibration sensation
creation or some shit
Uh, I mean, uh, yeah, Crendor, how do you achieve synchronicity? Come on.
First, synchronicity, just the, just to get correct here, the simultaneous occurrence of events, which appear significantly related, but have no discernible casual connection.
So, right, so how do you achieve that again?
Hold on, because I'm, uh, I'm trying to figure this out.
Because in that episode, right, he references that crazy person that's like, we sat in a room and meditated and then crime went down like 16%, right?
Yeah.
So wouldn't that be a form of synchronicity where it's like something happened that it's probably not related whatsoever?
But he's saying it is.
So in that scenario, he can't double dip.
You can't say it is both related and because it's unrelated, it proves the point.
Right.
Also, okay, this is off topic, kind of, but like crime going down 16%.
Like, what happened?
They do it.
Were they like, their energy was so powerful when they meditated that it like,
Professor X'd out into the community and then like there's like a couple people that
we're going to steal or like do something wrong and we're like, actually, you know what?
I don't think I will.
And that was it?
That is the implication.
That is what they're saying, yes.
But then what if they ended up doing it?
Not at all.
What if they ended up doing it like a week later?
How long's it last?
Exactly.
Are you saying we have to have a round-the-clock meditation to fight crime,
like some sort of crime psychics?
Dude, could you imagine it's like some superhero villain?
He's like, we keep all of the meditators down below so we can fight through the power of the mind.
And he's got them all like locked up and shit.
Oh, man.
Yeah.
I mean, like a smart villain would keep them occupied.
Because if the meditators are working overtime, then you have your goons do like minor
crimes while you set up a big scheme.
Yeah.
And I think that's my synchronicity.
Just saying, checkmate telepaths.
Gotcha.
That's my synchronicity.
Awesome.
Great.
Yeah.
Then we have dear illustrious,
dear illustrious with tears in my eyes and beers.
No, sirs. Just we are the illustrious.
Yeah.
Dear illustrious with tears in my eyes and beers with my eyes and beers with
my pies, which Christmas curse would you accept and which one would you give to an enemy?
Everything you touch smells like candy canes for December.
You have a bright red nose Christmas Eve and Christmas Day that won't turn off.
You turn to a Yeti during blizzards.
You slowly turn into Santa with no superpower during Christmas week.
Everything you drink becomes eggnog, Christmas Eve, and Christmas Day.
So I have to answer what I'd give.
myself and what I would give my enemy
both of those?
Yes.
All right.
I would give
myself the red nose.
I think it's a fun party trick.
It doesn't last too long.
And people will be like, oh, that's fun.
I'd give my enemy the eggnog one.
Why?
Just because I feel like
24 hours of eggnog
being the only thing you can drink
would be the worst.
Yeah, probably.
Probably would.
Like everything else, becoming a Yeti, cool.
You can do all sorts of becoming Santa for a week, fun, right?
Like there's, you know, you don't have the powers,
but like you get to have one week as like an old fat man.
That's fun.
You can do it like all the eggnog one is specifically, it sucks.
That sucks.
That does suck.
I mean, I kind of like the candy cane one,
but then I realize it's for all of December.
You're just going to be like.
That's too long.
Yeah, that's too long.
maybe a Yeti during Blizzards
because like how long can be a Yeti for
like a probably be like a day or something
like that's fine I mean depends on where you live
like for me the Yeti one's the easiest one
But for you maybe you can
But then like also
Being a Yetty could be awesome
What do you talk?
You're like a giant monster man
You could rip all sorts of shit down
That's what I'm saying
If I was a Yeti I'd probably have like
All my injuries would feel better
Right it's probably like Yetty powers
I could I don't even got to go anywhere
Bear ass naked? Yeah, you can do whatever you want.
They're like, the Yeti's out.
Right?
It's just like, good morning, everyone.
Yeah.
And then, honestly, I think I would give my enemy the candy cane one.
Because that's like, it's too long.
And you would probably just start going insane.
Like literally everything in your, your house would smell like candy canes.
Here's like, I don't know, stop.
Change the smell.
So, I think that one.
Easy.
Look at that.
There we go.
That's your dear illustrious sirs.
Okay.
What is our big news story of the day?
Big news story of the day, day, day, day, day.
School seeks help finding teddy bear that fell from the stratosphere.
Whoa!
Pardon?
Yep.
A school in England is asking for the public's help to find a missing teddy bear that was sent into the stratosphere with a weather balloon and fell to earth.
Earth. The Wallhampton School said Bradford Bear was sent into the sky from
Limmington, Hampshire, by 7th and 8th grade students working together with the University's
Space Flight Society. Camera on board the balloon recorded Bradford's journey into the
upper atmosphere, captured the moment the stuffed toil was jostled free from his perch and the
stratosphere above Henley on Tames, November 10th. Bradford Bear had been expected the parachute
to safety along with the rest of the balloon's cargo in the Basingstoke area,
but he is now believed to have landed somewhere between early and folly in the Henley-on-Paim's area.
If you have any information...
Like, everything you just said.
Everything you've been saying for the last minute has been the most British shit I've ever heard.
It's like between Goose Town and New Goose Town, there is wibbley-wably, which is bordering old Goose Town.
If you have any information about the whereabouts, no matter how small, please.
let us know. It's like their missing child.
Also, Bradford is the most British name for a teddy bear I've ever heard.
It's Bradford.
Bradford, the teddy bear.
Yeah, maybe like Bradford the third would be more British.
Bradford? Bradford? Bradford the bear.
Video footage or any details would be hugely appreciated.
Ellie Robinson, a science teacher at Wallham.
Stampton School told BBC that Bradford Baird did amazingly by reaching an altitude of 16.7 miles above the ground.
I'm sure he's fine as we have reassured the children. He is very brave and resourceful.
Dude, Bradford's up there just like, holy shit.
We need a Bradford version of like ground control to say it's a tomb.
But it's Bradford.
And yeah.
Also, can the next Paddington movie be this?
Yeah, he's lost in space.
Yeah
It's like
Oh no
My mamelage
Oh no
Did you
Oh my god
This just remind me
Did you see that
Google AI ad
With the stuffed animal
No
So there's an ad
I watched enough
Football yesterday
To get this ad
Numerous times
So
There's a Google AI
Ed where they're like
Oh no
Little Jenny
Lost her
Stuffed Lamb or whatever
And they're like
How do we tell her
That it's not
gonna be back
For a few weeks
Or it's in the cargo
Or in the
plane or like some shit like that and then they're like I know and then they start creating
AI prompts of it like just sitting in the plane or like exploring and then they create
AI videos of the lamb like going all around then he's like hey Jenny I'll be back soon I'm
just traveling the world and I was like what just be like hey the the lamb's gonna he's
just taking a trip he'll be back in a few weeks that's that's it like we don't need the
create AI stuff to do that
So the goof is that they
It's very similar to like it would be like the story you just did
Where the bear is in space
And then the bear goes missing
But instead of being like the bear went missing kids
It's we made this AI video
To explain to the children that the bears on an adventure
Is kind of what you're saying
Yes exactly
It's uh like hold on here's an image
There you go
of him skydiving
so yeah
it would just be like
instead of just telling the kids like
hey you know the bear's missing
but we're gonna find them ever
they're just like look it's the bear
he's in space kids
and it's like an AI video of Bradford in space
like ohoy
he's like floating around
it's just like we don't need this
on a baseline level
I guess
maybe you could equate this
to being similar to how
parents used to
write letters from their stuffed animal or something to their kids
or they did elf on a shelf or it was like alive and that
but this is again because it's the use of AI art
it isn't something they created it's something that was stolen
and then pieced together from photos on the internet
exactly and it's like that's upsetting
but like in theory
I guess maybe I understand whether
you know their hearts are in the right place but their
execution is terrible
It's really quite bad
Well, first off, it's Google
There's no heart involved here
Second
Like I get it
But like the other methods
Of like writing a letter
Or like you know
It like increases your creativity
And your imagination
Right?
For like a young person
Just growing up being like
Wow I can use my brain
To create things and figure out stuff
And instead of just like
Oh yeah AI figured it out
Like great
Awesome
so
anyway you know what
hopefully Bradford's out there
and there's no AI Bradford
and he's going to show up and we'll be like
huzzah
maybe maybe
maybe
and that's your big new story of the day
