Two In The Think Tank - 199 - Alfred Nobel and The Nobel Prize

Episode Date: August 14, 2019

And the Nobel Prize for best podcast about The Nobel Prize and its founder Alfred Nobel goes... to this episode. Swedish inventor Alfred Nobel's most famous creation was dynamite. It made him incredibly rich, but also controversial due to the people that dynamite and his weapons factories killed. When considering his post death legacy, he decided to pull off the greatest rebrand in history and donate his enormous fortune to found a set of prizes in his honour. This is the history of the Nobel Prizes.Buy tickets to our upcoming live shows here: https://dogoonpod.com/events/Vote for Dave to be Australia's Pie Guy, (you do have to be in Australia or use a VPN)https://gourmetpieguy.brumbys.com.au/profile/dave-warneke/See Matt and Jess live:https://mattstewartcomedy.com/gigshttps://www.jessperkins.com.au/showsOur website: dogoonpod.comSupport the show and get rewards like bonus episodes: patreon.com/DoGoOnPodSubmit a topic idea directly to the hat: dogoonpod.com/Submit-a-TopicNEW MERCH SHOP: https://dogoon.bigcartel.com/Matt's Merch: https://mattstewartcomedy.com/shopTwitter: @DoGoOnPodInstagram: @DoGoOnPodFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/DoGoOnPod/Email us: [e-mail] out our other podcasts:Book Cheat: https://play.acast.com/s/book-cheatPrime Mates: https://play.acast.com/s/prime-mates/Our awesome theme song by Evan Munro-Smith and logo by Peader ThomasREFERENCES AND FURTHER READING:http://theconversation.com/the-curious-history-of-the-nobel-peace-prize-66609https://www.britannica.com/topic/Nobel-Prizehttps://www.scientificamerican.com/article/12-surprising-facts-about-nobel-prizes/https://www.nobelprize.org/prizes/facts/facts-on-the-nobel-peace-prize/https://www.britannica.com/biography/Alfred-Nobelhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nobel_Prizehttp://www.bbc.co.uk/history/historic_figures/nobel_alfred.shtml

Hello and welcome to another episode of Dugo. One my name is Dave Warnakian. I'm sitting here waving at a camera in a Brisbane hotel room with Jess Perkins and Matt Stewart. Yeah. Hello, David. Hello, hang on. You went just first again. Oh, hang on. The tides of turn.

Do you want to run? Is that a phrase? It was like, does it change? Turned? Is it turned? Can tides turn? Surely. Oh, turn it to our bed. Yeah, oh yeah, big tides Can Tides turn? Surely. I will see it back out there.

Yeah, oh yeah, big turns. Tides, Tides have turned. It's my turn again. Well, it's great to be here with you too. So good to be here. We are on the road we are about to record tomorrow afternoon when we're recording our 200th episode, live in Brisbane. Yeah, that'll be a lot of fun.

So that makes this episode 199. 199. Can you, do you think, when we started this, did you have any idea of how long it would go for? No, I didn't, I didn't think about it. No, I mean, though. The podcast I started before that went for 10 episodes and I thought that was pretty good.

Oh, that is good. Pretty good. Apparently a lot of pods struggled to make it that far. I did two podcasts before this one and they both never got released and I think they both recorded three or four episodes each. This is my first podcast. Wow, you're the secret of the secret sauce. And it's funny to just be like, did you ever think we'd make it to 200? Because what if we make it to 400 and then people will

listen to this one and be like, idiots, you've done double that, you know? But that's another four years away. Good God. Who knows? Who knows? I could be dead. Well, we all could be more likely. Yeah, good A bit bad start on you. Yeah, big time about a thousand years had some. And he don't know a lady doesn't tell Anyway, so yes, here we are. We're in our hotel room and we're recording tomorrow. Like they've just said, but in fact, we're recording right now. We are recording what you think about right now. I think about it like Dave just said, but in fact, we were recording right now. We are recording one thing about it. Right now. Like technically, we are.

Okay. And before we jump into this week's episode, we have to tell you that your Brisbane, you've missed out on that gig. That was the 200th episode, but we've got two more Aussie ones coming up at the moment in Sydney, we're up there Saturday, September the 21st at Giant Wurf, and then we're coming to Perth for the first time

at the Comedy Lounge Sunday, November 3rd. Yeah, that's gonna be a lot of fun, we haven't been to Perth, so that'd be cool. And tickets are available to those shows at dogewohnpod.com. That's right, do you know that? I do, yeah. I'd love to see those people there

and quickly guys, if you may indulge me again. Uh, uh, uh, uh, come on later. I am indulging you. We have an update on, I'm gonna call it PyGate. My campaign to be crowned Australia's gourmet pygai. Pygai makes it sounds like it's controversial. Well, I mean, the controversy was two weeks ago,

I said I'd entered this competition to be voted as Australia's gourmet pygai. The person who gets the most votes, it's all it is, it's first on that. And if you, some people might know me that I love pies, and I have an Instagram account just about eating meat pies here in Australia. And I entered, people were wondering,

hey, where's the entry? Where's the entry? And for some reason, the first entry didn't work out, and I had to email them a few times back and forth. So I entered again, and I'm finally on the website. I've been on there for 24 hours at the time of recording. 1200 votes in the 21st 24 hours. Thank you so much to everyone that's voted. And I'm into fourth place. Yeah, that's huge. My eyes is on the prize. Yeah, it is on the prize. Just one eye. But I'm still

5,000 votes behind the leader who is a man carrying a baby. I just don't think he's ready for the responsibility of fatherhood and pie. Yeah, that's what I mean, I've always been that tingrand on. I was supporting his child. Dave. No, thank you. Sorry to steal the lawn light here, but I'm gonna steal the lawn light here. I'm gonna enter the race. Absolutely not. I'm entering. I'm going to go to my room over there, as soon as we're done here, and I'm going to enter. I'm going to enter as sort of a kind of like the third party ticket, you know, like Kanga, your Kanga, all right. Sure, sure. I'm going to be, um,

pasty man in the pie competition. Because you prefer a party to a party. I love a party. I think you can vote. You can't vote twice, but I'm asking people to not vote for you. That means I will not win. No, do not do that. Do not vote for this man here. Because if you do, that's a vote taken away from me.

And you won't be the winner there. The winner will be Babyman. Yeah, Babyman only. That's the worst thing. We should combine our votes here to take down Baby Man. But the top 10, also there's runner up prize for the top 10. So I'm happy to do that. I don't need to be the pygo.

I just want to be pasty boy. But you are taking pygo away from me. Hmm. Vote for Dave. Thank you. And then if you have another computer, or get your girlfriend or dog or boyfriend or cat or husband or wife or all of them to vote for me. Fantastic.

Pasty boy. Okay I can support that pasty boy. I'm going for Nick Mason's title of number one pasty boy. Now some people have said you can only vote in Australia which is technically true but overseas people have also told me they've been using a VPN. So, should you be putting this on the record or what if Brombies is listening? I doubt they're really doing that much research into their entrance.

Dave is not encouraging anyone to do it, but if someone accidentally stumbles on it, it will take you. I've just said some people can do that, but if you are in Australia, which is the most important people, you can vote once per device. If you have a computer, a tablet, a phone on on Wi-Fi phone off Wi-Fi your mum's phone You work in computer. I don't know what your dog's got anything like that. You can also

Not long to live. Well, thanks for bringing it up Dave. Well, hack that dog here now Hack the dog before it dies vote for me and then let it go No, I don't got worms. It's not gonna die. It just has worms Yeah, but those worms have rabies. It's an itchy bum. And they're eating it's arsehole. Ah, ah, ah, ah. My dog's going to itchy bum, days.

Well, as a par girl, I'll help him out. Will you be here? That's one of my many promises, my campaign. Will you use your winnings to buy worm medication for my dog? Yes, I will worm your dog. Dave, will you also buy me a dog? Yes. No, well thank God that'll be a cheap dog I imagine.

Because you're already buying us Baroness Dums. Not only a lady, but a lady. And I'll buy you guys pies and also a official certificate from Sea Land that recognizes you as the Baron and Dame that you deserve. Thank you. And a dog with worms.

While we're plugging one last quick plug before we get in the episode. Oh, there's a link to that voting in the description of this episode. No time. So, Jess and I are doing our show, Razzle Dazzle, we've got one more show in Brisbane when this comes out.

Tomorrow night. Tomorrow night, but then. That's the first day. Tickets for Melbourne Fringe. Here we have an announcement. Yeah, I don't think. We're doing Melbourne Fringe as haven't announced it yet, I don't think. We're doing Melbourne Friends as well. And the dates are September.

And you can get tickets also via either of our websites, matchyourcomedy.com slash gigs or jessperkins.com.au slash shows. We should have really coordinated there. You're more of a show. I don't want my website. You're more of a show and I'm more of a gig. My website's about me. Pig.

Okay. Right. So why doesn't have to coordinate with your website? We already share enough, Matt. Let me have something that's mine. Thank you. He's trying to take my pie chartles. You can't let us have our own things.

Yeah. Why do you have to be involved in everything? Where are you looking? You look at that painting of a beach with one tree on it. We show there on the beach. What a sad tree. That's a sh- there's a lot of shit decor in this thing. I don't- I don't hang a hammock from that tree.

Oh, to what? Yeah, you'd hear sad hammock. It'd be a noose. You'd hang time from that tree, yeah. What a way to go. Well, what a view. What a view. What a view.

Alright, let's- let's fucking pod, hey. Alright, team, check out all those links in the description here. Now, we always start the show with a question and the question gets us onto a topic that's usually suggested by a listener. One of us is going to a report on that. It is my turn. You two don't know what the topic is. So let's do it.

My question is, let's do it. The question is, what is- And we do it together, doing it makes love, doing it takes love. I love it when we're doing it together. Thank you. And if you haven't had the show before, we do that every single week. 199 times. Who would have thought?

Who would have thought we'd make it as far? All right, my question is, what is arguably the world's most prestigious collection of awards? Logies. Correct. I will give you a point for whoever's keeping track of the score. Give just the four. Pull it, sir. Oh, pretty good. Are you saying someone's won a collection of awards? No, so these five awards are up for grabs nearly every single year. Oh it's not the EGA plus. Oh no bell prices. Is the no bell prices. Wow. Wow. I didn't even know that there was only five but I was like well it can't be. Let me list and for you. Okay. Hottest bod. Hottest dad bod. That's a controversial one. What else is there Matt you got three more to go there's

The penis price Is that the best or worst Well, it depends on the judges worst Christmas. Yeah, too more Then you've got obviously Best book Favorite hat the best book. Five for it? Hat. That's the five. I would have had it the year. Oh, that's good stuff. Who's it gonna be?

I can't use bowl hats. And the winner again is Bola Hat. This is a stage with five hat Bang. Chemistry, there's multiple science ones. Yeah. Chemistry. Physics. Physics. Yeah. Then there's... Is there literature? No. Yeah, literature. Yeah. Literature and most popular on-screen performer. Also known as the gold Nobel. on screen performer. Also known as the gold Nobel. That is correct. The other one is medicine or physiology and then later on which we will discover they added in economics. Oh you can get a Nobel Prize for economics. It does live. I'm very good at spreadsheets, have a big prize. Okay. Well I did year 11 economics so I'm probably up for that. Have I want one. I haven't checked. The only one to ever complete your live in economics. I can't wait. I'm not entirely sure what I

can. Switched in a politics next year so I might want both. Is there a politics one? Yeah. Peace. Yeah, that's politicians often win the peace one. That's correct. Often people who have killed a lot of people that year. But how do you get peace without killing lots of people that year? Well, let me quote Mr. Michael Franty when he famously saying, you can bomb the world of pieces, but you can't bomb the world to peace. And I live by that. Wow. And he was of course the winner of the Nobel Peace Prize 1979.

Yeah. Who do you think the year he was born, probably? Could you get on with this? I don't that reference. Okay, I'm much too young The this topic was suggested by probably our most prolific topic suggested which is me a K. You sir Yes, if you're a morole my friend well well bloody don't with it's many when he we've done Remember he's the one where I picked iron brew and he was in the room in the front row. So he's, and he gave us Iron Brew. He's the only one I think we've ever said, every live show, I was like, are you in tonight?

The only one who actually said yes. Yeah, that was the shit. To the point where I thought this guy's shitness and he was actually telling the shit. His shitness. Does that translate? His shitness. Yeah. He's taking a shit on us.

Yeah, I enjoyed it. For comedic effect, he's shitin'. Oh nice. We appreciate you shit, Yusuf. Do you guys know much about the Nobel prizes, apart from the fact that you could list some of them? I know Sheldon Cooper wins one. Yeah, Sadami's saying one-one.

He did not. He did not. No. The grand wizard of the Ku Klux Klan, one one, I think. There are some controversial winners which we will get to. Amazing. I think, yeah, I think Satan won a peace prize on you. And economics in the same year.

The Toriously God always robbed. The last minute. Is a real Merrill Stray Peas. Yeah, Merrill Stray, famously robbed. Famously robbed, apart from the three government who's robbed. Yeah, rob. Actually, fair enough, she's won, she's been nominated at about 20 times. So, hit rate.

Not that great. Yeah, it's not that great. Yeah, hit rate is not that great. Yeah. She's doing a lot better than you, Dave. Well, I've never lost. I've never been nominated in Lost and Oscar. Well, that'd be sad.

I will let that be sad, but I won't agree with it. Well, it is time to kick on with the report. Now do you know who the Nobel Prizes were founded by a named after? Alfred Noble. Swedish man. He was also a bad person. He knows born in Stockholm actually in 1833 would you believe? We're sitting a lot closer together than usual and Jess is to...

Do you want to just read this report? Did you read that? Did you know? You knew it was Alfred or not? No I'm fucking reading his computer. I'm sitting right in front of it. I'm not sure. Have you read that? Did you know? You knew it was Alfred or not. No, I'm fucking reading his computer. I'm sitting right in front of it. I'm even dog just like that. I mean, I'm sitting in a position that you made me sit in

because it's right for the camera. So I can't move. And Dave's laptop is pushed so far forward, I can't help but stare at it. We're now sitting around a table like people do on sitcoms. It's like no one sits like this. Right, when they leave a whole gap, yeah. Go on, show the people at home, the back of your head, if you like.

I don't want to. I'm very self-conscious about it. People don't know that it's bald at the back. I've got a beautiful profile. I like people knowing that I can smell things from a meter away. That's really normal, actually. You know? I was trying to say I've got a meter long nose, but.

I did not get that at all. I'm in the room. You said that after moving away from me and I was like are you trying to put down that you think I've farted? I can smell for a minute after a meter. Yeah pretty highly tuned. Sometimes I could sense that there's 11 a bush nearby. If I'm standing in front of a lavender. That was rich. within one meter. Alright, let's do this. Alfred Nobel, would you believe was born in Stockholm, Sweden in 1833? Just called it. I really did think you knew that. That makes me a... You thought I knew the name or you...

I thought I knew all of that. Thank you. I wasn't until you started giggling at yourself that I realized. Oh yeah, I've always been a giveaway. Just did you know that he was the fourth son of inventor and engineer? Emmanuel. Emmanuel. Yes. And his wife.

Sweet. I called it. Caroline. Caroline. Thank you Matt, well done. I called it Caroline. Sweet Caroline actually. Oh, that is so good.

The punking has struck in Brisbane. Sweetie. Of course it is. You replace the word sweet with swede and she's Swedish. Maybe I am good at puns. You are good. I don't like that a bit. That's not a bad part of.

Oh no. All right. Unless you're from Britain, they love it over there. They don't know that it's embarrassing. They love puns. Yeah, they're big puns. There's poor people. A lot of our listeners.

Yuck. Oh. I love their puns. They're punny ways. Dave. Yuck. Oh. Well, I love their puns, their punny ways. Yeah. Dave, come on. Okay, the family had a pretty rough time being in poverish and only four of their eventual eight children even made it into adulthood.

Oh my God. Sorry. We don't know the others. Sorry. They didn't make it, man. Sorry. I just realized. Yeah.

They got a hell back at school. They're still in grade three now. Very immaturity. And all good things must come to an end. Oh my gosh. As a child, Alfred was naturally curious about science, being especially interested in explosives, which is a strange thing to be interested in as a kid,

but I love it. Oh, it's not, it makes perfect sense. It starts to make it cool. And it makes way more sense why they give peace prizes to people who blow stuff up. Am I remembering this right? I'll find out later, I guess. He's father also taught in the fundamentals of engineering. He's that being an engineer. Then in 1842, Nobel's family when he was nine moved to Russia where his father had opened an engineering firm providing equipment for the Tsar's armies. It's here that the family's fortunes changed figuratively and literally as they became

quite wealthy. Do we always call the Zaz armies the Zamis? Is that a pun? I don't know. I think it's Paul Mantto. Pun Mantto, thank you. I was also doing this time that Alfred went to school for the only time in his childhood only going for 18 months.

But once they did get money, he did have private tutors. By the age of 16 he was an accomplished chemist and was fluent in English, French, German, Russian and Swedish. That's so many languages. Hmm, but. I haven't quite nailed English. I do good though. Yeah, you do good.

I do good but. But he's a smart man, that's what I'm trying to put out there I do good though. Yeah, you do good. I do good, but. But he's a smart man. That's what I'm trying to put out there. It's first my man. He studied chemistry in Paris and then worked in the USA for four years, working under Josh Erickson, who created the first armoured warship. And he did that, what in the shop above?

Oh, working under, working under. I mean, so my brain just can't keep up sometimes because that is. If you're going to regret face, do not turn your face away from the camera. You're looking at the camera, so people need to see it. So they deserve to see it. Well, I can't edit it out because we are filming the whole thing. You can edit that out of the film if you want. I'm not going to edit anything out.

I'll take that on board, they would not talk anymore. Okay. In his mid-twenties, Alfred Fahlde's first patent for a type of gas meter. And this would be the first of many inventions that he would patent. He then returned home to work in the family factory in Russia, making military equipment used in the Crimean War.

Things were going really well for the family, but then the war stopped, and suddenly there had nothing left to do so the family went bankrupt. I'm getting it, he loves war. Yeah well a lot of people get really rich off war. Yeah. And very poor off pace which is what happened to their families. So he had to move back to Sweden and this is when he began in his 20s to devote

himself to the study of explosives. Right. Things that go bang. You could say. He loved. Right. Things that go bang. You could say. He loved to bang. Loved to bang. At the time, the only dependable explosive for use in minds was black powder, which was basically just gunpowder.

This was originally used by the Chinese around the 9th century, and no one had come up with a better alternative for 900 years. Would you say that he gets more bucks for his bang? Look at the camera. Stand by it. So the technology has kind of stored for nine centuries and Alfred Hover that he could create a better and more reliable explosive by using the recently discovered but highly volatile and very dangerous liquid

compound known as nitroglycerin which has been synthesized a few years earlier by Italian chemist Asakario Subrero. Now that? Sure. Good name though. You're asking someone who just said they can hardly speak their own language. I do good, but. Yeah, she does do good.

She does better in Italian. That's true. So about confidence. So about confidence. Ah, Laura. Yes, it's a cozy. Nitric glycerin is a colorless, oily liquid, and it was much more powerful, explosive than black powder, but it was very unpredictable, and most people wrote it off as too dangerous

to actually use practically. The liquid is shock sensitive, meaning that a physical shock can actually cause it to explode. So it was nearly impossible to transport safely. Right. You couldn't put it in the old horse and cart because it would just explode the horse and cart. Oh no, you don't want an exploded horse. You do not want that. It's just messy.

And yet, Alfred Nobel experimented with it in his own shed. Good. Quite dangerous. And I mean, quite well at first in 1863 he invented a type of detonator used with nitric glycerin and the world began to take notice of this relatively young man. But he hadn't owned at all of the safety kinks. The next year in 1864 Alfred Nobel's nitro glycerin factory slush shed Exploded killing several people including his brother Emil. Oh my god

Is that one of the kids who didn't make it to adult hood? Sadly, he was one day shivis 18th birthday Far out for Emil. He exploded his brother. He exploded but Alfred was unfazed by this and continued on his pursuit of creating a safe product which basically actually meant more experimenting with a very unsafe product. So he doubled down and built several more factories. I reckon just have a nice respectful break through bit. But no, straight back to it. It's not, it's what I mean a lot of wanted. Yeah.

A respectful break. Yeah. If I die, pod can continue, but a respectful break. What's respectful? Six days. I can continue the following Wednesday. Right. Basically.

But we won't like, we won't tweet for six days or something. Yeah, thank you. But we'll definitely get someone else in and we'll record a pod. Oh, that's fine. Okay. Yeah, right. You Oh, that's fine. Okay. Yeah, right. You know it's not the same for me. Oh three days No

Six to eight months. No 20 years This part has to end for six to eight years. Let's say seven and then we get the band back together and do a reunion tour Yeah, like the original podcast, which was that just anyway. Yeah, that's right. Technically, we would be doing our original show, so it's not as disrespectful. Yeah. This is brutal to find out. Sorry.

We'll stop doing our show, the one with the Threvis, and we'll go back to our old show, which was the Tilvis immediately. Yeah. Do go on, I think it was cool. Does that what we call it? Yeah, I think it's, yeah. Yeah, we should go back to the old name. It's a good title. Yeah, catchy. Remember that. I think it was cool. So what would we call it? Yeah, I think that's yeah, yeah We should go yeah, we could go back to the old name good title. Yeah, good. I'll catch you Remember that I came up with it. They can't it's untrue

That I remember no, I do not remember it But I we debate about who came up with a title. I do we do I'm confident it was me In correct you you loved it, but I suggested it all right down six potential titles one of them was it starts with a question And I'm so glad we didn't go with that. That sucks. That's really bad, isn't it? I'm 100% sure it was me. When we, how can we put, it starts with a question

on a t-shirt. How could you call anything it starts with a question? Obviously, there were no bad ideas that day. And it have to be, it starts with a question, you know? Dave, do go on. OK, do go on. Thank go on thank you the phrase I created you really believe you came up with it in my memory yeah that is embarrassing what proof do you have that you came up with it knowledge fact knowledge power

law where did you where did the inspiration come to you God God yeah I just thought to go on you know I don't you know? I don't know, you know. The rest is history. God's famous catchphrase. Well, he's exploded his brother and he's built a new factory. Everything is on track. I continue to invent other stuff whilst experimenting with Nathana Glissorant in 1965. Elford created the first invention that would actually put him on the map. It was a blasting cap. This is where the hat got a good cap. No, well, I'll pass the best hat that year.

It was an improvised, sorry, improved detonator made up of a small metal cap containing a mercury filaminant that's a... Filaminant? a mercury filaminate that's... Filaminate? That's filaminate. Oh, wow, that's a cool new word. Yeah, it could be exploded by either shock or moderate heat. It was a real leap forward in explosive technology, and the world took a step closer itself to using large but reliable explosive, which is his mission in life.

It's to create big explosives. Big bombs, big bangles. Yeah, big bombs, but they were reliable and in a way safe. Yeah, yeah. I'm not going to say that. I'm not going to say that. I'm not going to say that. I'm not going to say that. I'm not going to say that. I'm not going to say that. I'm not going to say that. I'm not going to say that.

I'm not going to say that. I'm not going to say that. I'm not going to say that. I'm not going to say that. I'm not going to say that. I'm not going, remember that. Love safety, it's my number one thing. So he's invented the cap, the blasting cap. But he still couldn't use the cap reliably and safely with nitro glycerin, which is his big dream.

Oh, it's good to have a dream, isn't it? Yeah. I imagine. Oh, I loved that one, something. One day, maybe I'll think of a dream. He tried a bunch of different stuff. I'll dream of. He tried a bunch of different stuff.

Trying to combine the oil with different substances like cement, coal and sawdust to try and make it safer, but these didn't work. But then in 1867, he really put himself on the world map and etched himself into history when he combined it with diatomaceous earth. Oh, yeah, that's what I would have suggested at first. No, it's embarrassing, it took him three years to discover this. Yeah, it's always the last place you look. And the last place you look is always die-tomaceous

That's me maybe that's me Yeah, yeah great just checking But by chance he discovered that the die tomatoes earth soaked up the glycerin and made it safe to handle But it could still be explosive when needed. Yeah, no duh, that's what diet damage there does. Yeah, correct, correct. God. I guess you find out these things for the first time sometime. Well, I did it when I was a baby. Oh, I feel like I've always known it. Yeah. Oh, yeah. It's just innate for me. Right. You just had a certain how do I say? How do you say? Can you help me out?

Feeling. Feeling, that's it. Thank you. I never, I'm always lost for words. So he just invented dynamite. Dino mate. Dino mate. Name me after the Greek word for power, Dynamous.

Dynamous. Dynamous, it's probably dynamists, to be honest. A lot of these words I have not said out loud before. There's a lot of European names in here. I'm also going to quote from Wikipedia. European names. Oh, I'm coming up to many of them. Oh, right.

Swedish, not Norwegian name. I'm going to quote from Wikipedia. Something I really do is this. They said no other sources, but it really made me laugh. Let's not muck about. You're basically always just reading Wikipedia. That is incorrect. You know that, first he tries to claim the title. Now he's trying to claim it's all about Wikipedia. Are you trying to create a rift?

It's just all about that. No, I know that that rolls you up. There are a couple of listeners who call this a Wikipedia show. And you, it really grounds your gears. It certainly does. Wikipedia is a great source. A great starting point. A great start. Fantastic.

I just loved this quote, and I actually couldn't find any evidence for an anywhere else, but I still enjoyed it, talking about how he named it. Quote, Nobel had also considered naming the highly powerful substance, Nobel's safety powder. That's good. I love that. And I was like, old, Old-timey hustler.

Is that it? Come on, get some no bells, no dangerous milkshift. For that. I love anytime somebody just wants to put their name in there. Oh, it's so good. Well he was big on that later, obviously, when it came to awards. But so you're going with Dynamite, something that we still over 100 years later know, dynamite, it's a very famous thing, but I wonder if he had named it something as dumb as

Nobel Safety Powder. Yeah. What did it have taken off? Oh, it would probably be NSP. Yeah. Or TNT. What does TNT mean? Dino, Mike.

Oh, I could echo as they're for us all along. Oh, long. They're all about education. How would you do dirty deeds? I'd do them dirt cheap. Okay, that makes sense to me. Hmm. Thunder, question mark.

Struck, exclamation mark. A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A TNT, I've looked it up here and speaking of words I can't pronounce, it's an abbreviation for the explosive. Trinit Trotulline. TNT is way better. TNT, catchy. Also, no bell safety powder, NSP. NSP. But he went with Dynamite and he was granted patents for the invention of Dynamite in

the USA and the UK And it was quickly adopted by companies around the world to blast tunnels create canals and build railways It made Nobel very famous and very very rich because everyone needed his invention Oh cool and he had all the rights to it. Yeah, but even like not even just like governments needing to blow up tunnels Even people just like oh my drains are clogged. Yeah, I mean, there was some dynamite in there. Chuck some safety powder in there. Before Drainer was invented, people used to blow up their pipes.

And then God, it was smooth after that. Before plungers were invented, you just chuck a sicka dynamite down there. Just like a dynamite, clean it up. Hmm. Then obviously build a new surge system. Yeah, same with like cleaning up crime scenes or destroying evidence. Yeah

Oh, no, we blew up the police station. Let's get rid of the evidence by blowing it up Perfect. Yeah, perfect. Oh, did I leave you know when, when you leave a house and you think, oh, did I unplug my straightener? These criminals were like, did I leave fingerprints on? Oh, that's right. I blew it up. I blew it up. So, I need not worry.

Thank you so much for that straightener analogy, because that really put me in the place. I know. Oh, no. Oh, yeah, that's straightener, yeah, yeah. It's related to that. It happens all the time. And if you did leave your fingerprints on something, relax. Just blow up your fingers.

Yeah. Blow up your fingers. People are like, did you do this and you something relax just blow up your fingers Yeah, I'll be fingers. Did you do this and you like no? I could I got no fingers me stubbans stubbzie You left your straightener on now. I was blow it up blow it up. I mean you're just there to some plug it I've blown it up. It's too late. I've blown it up Also while you're at the shops. Can you buy me a new straight now blew mine up again? Sorry blew up the shop. No worries.

I'm holding an old timey ad that's trying to spook this wonder product. I mean, we've just done it. What would it sound like from the year? The year you chum blowdown? Well, no worries, we got down on mat. Hey! Sorry to the upstairs neighbors.

I'm glad I asked. Is anyone working above us? I'll be working under anyone. We're working on a battleship up there. That's the thing I was trying to say. So everyone needs this brand-spanking new invention, Dino Might, and he capitalized on this by building factories all over Europe to make his Dino Might

and set up a massive corporation that dominated the market. He also continued to experiment to improve his product and he made it stronger and more reliable over the next few years. He also created and painted other explosives, including Jellig Knight and Basel Tite. Ah, I've heard of Jellig Knight.

I've heard of Basel Tite, nationally heard of Bessel tight. Natalie Bessel tight. The CEO of Rogue Trade and actor in Neighbours. He was also in constant legal battles with people who tried to create similar products. Oh, you wanted me to laugh. Why did you give me a little? Because that was quite funny. What's it? Oh, I'm kidding, I'm kidding. No, fuck you. I'm giving you nothing now. Fun with me. I'll just carry on with the report.

I'm giving nothing after all this great interesting information is giving us. Now you're doing a great job. Feeling real good. Nah, nah, good on you. Yeah, great. Dave, you're the best. Thank you. Thank you.

Best report give her two years in a row. Thank you. So appointed. Best report give her two years in a row. Thank you. Self-appointed. It was not self-appointed. It was voted for by the patrons, people we love and respect. The year before it was self-appointed. That was unofficial. Unofficial.

All right. I'll figure. So people are trying to sue him. So trying to get around paying in by inventing their own dynamite, but he was still sewing the pants off of them. Getting even and it's getting more pants. Yeah, he was also blowing the pants off. This time with another invention, the pants blow.

Much like a leaf blower now. Yeah, we're just. It's also included Don. He's one of those people that gets more technically it should have been called the leg blower, We're just, we're just, it's not spared up. It also included Donum. He's one of those people that gets more technically it should have been called the leg blower because they were blown off. Their legs were blown off.

Probably more accurately called a killing machine. Yeah, he's a gun. He also marketed his TNT powder to Dentus. Getting rid of that unwanted plaque and tata and heads. You got an overbought there, you want me to fix that up for you? I'd say they used to deal with teeth problems, we'll pull them out. Here's some wooden ones. Apparently, like, even my grandparents generation would get new teeth for like their 21st birthday. That would be seen as, oh, you're an adult now. We'll yank your teeth out and give you a nice pair of falsies. Apparently that was like...

Yeah, or my grandmother. In the 40s or... Her first paycheck apparently, for when she was a teacher, she spent... She had a hard, horrible, horrible teeth from growing up in the country on a farm where they didn't look after them and spent the first paycheck getting a whole new set. Wow. Because I, like growing up, I would have thought older people often have false teeth, that's sort of a cliche. And that was because over time, they wore away.

But it was like a decision people often made young. Yeah, she would have been in the 20s. And just take them out. Oh. And like going, oh, so good, I can't wait to get this new set of teeth. Wow, Lordy. Crazy.

Since then, they've come up with this idea of brushing teeth. Yeah, keep them clean. Just keep them for a bit. But you have to brush every day, you only have to replace your teeth on one day. Yeah. But you do have to put them in a glass with that sort of fizzy water. And then go to bed like this. I was almost desperate to see my grandma without them in and she'd never let me. that sort of fizzy water. Mm. And then go to bed like this.

I was almost desperate to see my grandma without the men and she'd never let me. She would never let me. I'd be like, show, I wanna see him. Never let me. Show us your gums, Nana. Good night, Dalton. That's what I wanted.

Give me some kiss, would ya? Go on, give me some kiss. Go on. No, thank you. Why don't you give me a kiss? Okay. No, no, please, thank you. No, please. Yuck, yuck. No thank you. No please. No please. No no no no. Sorry I'm just kissing you on the microphone. Theatre of the mind. That's the ASMR section of the show. We always have that. So he's still in the pants off people now. Oh so yes and that makes him he's already rich.

Now it's crazy rich. In venting like crazy in an 1893, he decided to expand his empire from dynamite into the arms industry in Sweden, founding what was referred to in a couple of articles. The famous Beaufort's arms factory, I don't know, of it. Makes sense. He's blowing people's limbs off. Yeah, man's work. He's a fart making false arms.

Yeah, yeah that makes sense. So he started manufacturing weapons. You're going to jump off the balcony, I believe. No, he's just sitting on the couch. You got on time now? Okay, a little bit quiet time. So he's manufacturing weapons, which makes him even wealthier. Is that how you do it?

Yeah, on your arms, do you live, you Yeah, oh yeah, you're an arm see, live you heard about this? Have you heard about this? Yes. You get a lot of money. Cool. You do have to make a few sacrifices. If no sacrifices are other people's lives. Right, right, right, right, right, right. But apart from that, I mean, that's probably the only drawback. But I'm not shooting them. No, you're just giving weapons to other people. They can do whatever they want with them. Yeah, I don't know. They can just put them in a cupboard and leave it. Who knows? Might just put it on the wall for decoration. Yes, exactly. Yes, yes, yes. Thank you. He was a big inventor though. All up, he paid and did over 350 inventions, meaning that if he compared himself to Thomas Edison, like Homer Simpson did on the Simpsons,

he would still be about 2,000 inventions behind. But still pretty good. Thomas Edison did that many. Yeah. God damn, I get a life. You know, books or chicks. The two coolest things. Books and chicks. Get a chick, read her a book. Chicks dig that. A love of a man that reads to me. Really? Yeah, really. See Spot Run. Run Spot Run. You can lift a little flap.

Where's Spot there he is. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, slow down. So he invented a lot of stuff. It wasn't all just explosive in weapons. He also patented other stuff like the deal days. Yes. No Artificial silk in types of leather. Yeah, for for for deal does for deal. They let the deal. Well, I mean easy to keep clean They're right

Leather You're a little hard to clean What I don't once to be in there, maybe. In where? Where did Dildos go? I would have never known. What did they live? What do you do with them?

They look fun. So you invented lots of ease also? A bit of a strange personality. This is taken from the Encyclopedia Britannica radical. Nobel's complex personality puzzled his contemporaries. Although his business interests required him to travel almost constantly, he remained alonely recluse. It was prone to fits of depression.

He let it retired and simple life. Yet he could be a courteous dinner host, a good listener, and a man of incisive wit. He never married and apparently preferred the joys at inventing to those of romantic attachment. Though Nobel was essentially a pacifist and hopes that the destructive powers of his inventions would help bring an end to war, his view of mankind and nations was quite pessimistic.

Michael Frandy sang that song about him. You can't know the world to peace. I only sang the second half of the question. Yeah, that was a bit... I was waiting for more, but then I realized what he'd done. No, I appreciate that efficiency. Right, so he's quite contradictory in the middle of the list. A complicated individual. You know what, though?

He's a bit of a hot take from me. A lot of it. And we know my strength is emotional intelligence. I would have thought your strength was your legs. Oh, it's 100%. Physically, yes. Physically. Mentally, my strength, emotional intelligence.

OK. I get people. A lot of your emotion is in your legs though, isn't it? Yeah, absolutely. When you're trying to get into a sort of an emotional argument with someone, it's only a leg lock that brings back about a resolution. And when I'm upset about something, a stomp,

like a toddler. But what I'm trying to get to, Matt, is that people are complicated. Oh, I thought you were going to say, you can't stomp a toddler to piece or something like that. Oh, you can definitely do that. But people are complicated. That's what I want to say. Oh, people are complicated.

So, you know, I'm reading this about him like, Oh, a couple of his behaviors contradict one another. Yeah, he's a person. Oh. You know, some days I want to go to a party, chat to so many people. Other days, oh, yucky. I'm staying at home, my pajamas thing. Unfortunately, you are really invited to party. Yes, quite

infrequent now. So when they do come up, I'm usually too nervous to go. I don't I don't even what do you do? I don't remember what I do with my hands. Where do I look? The floor always look at the floor. Stand in the corner, look at the floor. Don't touch any food. Yeah. Or, if you touch one bit of food, touch it all. Yeah, that is real. One in all in. Yeah, I'm not sure.

I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. If you turn the lights on, turn them off and on and off and on again. Until you're asked to leave. Until you're asked to leave. Yep. When in doubt, just run the kitchen tap for an hour, staring into the the stream muttering under your breath.

What are you mother? Some kind of hex. Oh yeah? Oh my party. Oh yeah, that's how you get involved with that. This is how you hex. You stare into the water, you go, fuck these guys, fucking jerks, I think they'll die. That's how you do it.

See you next month. What are the parties? Why are you going to monthly What? Ed a party. Why are you going to monthly parties? I'm going to get new outfits. I'm going to say outfits to the party. People say they'll say they'll There's a phrase that I met. I mean, the audacity of that. I forgot, it'll be in a chat or an email or somewhere. I can follow it. I've got the original note where I wrote down the potential names for the pod.

And you've got one added in with brackets Matt offered this one. I don't know how I feel about it, but I prefer it all starts with a question. But I'm being diplomatic and letting Matt make suggestions for our steamroll. Do you go on? Yeah, good one. People accidentally say, do goon all the time. I reckon I would have talked about this before, and I would have mentioned this before as well, but initially, Stupid Old Studios came from Stupid Old Man, the sketch group we're in,

and one of the suggestions on that, maybe even the second most popular option was, this is a door. That's good stuff. Your production company would be called this is a door. I think that was an option. Wow. Who suggested that? Andy, I think, suggests a door.

Mandy from Tim andnament Think Tank. How we normally work as a group is. Alan and Andy have great ideas. Evan figures out how to do them. Beck makes them better. And I sit there nodding along, going, yeah, I agree. And this is the man that thought of the title do go on. Yeah.

I saved my best sufferers. That's kind of how this podcast works, except I'm the Matt. I'm the Matt of the title, DoGoOn. Yeah. I saved my best stuff for us. Thank you for sharing. That's gonna have this podcast work, except I'm the mat. You know, I'm the mat of the podcast. I did not see you go on self-deprecating there. Really? What a twist. Yeah, I try to keep that off pod. On pod, arrogant asshole.

Off pod, so sad. Can't go to parties. Can I have more be peace? Do go on. Just give me a little bit. They do go on. I'll quietly do this and listen to what the homeowner. Okay, because this is an important part of the story. We can get into the Nobel Prize now.

An often told story that is debated, but could be a reason that he established the Nobel Prize, goes a little something. I like this. Okay. Cracked that mother-of-and-beer. This is the story. In 1888, Alfred's brother Ludwig. Oh, yes. Wow, he's probably got the better names of mea and Ludwig. Yeah, that good stuff, isn't it?

He died while staying in Cannes in France. French newspapers reported Ludwig's death but confused him with Alfred. Oh. And one paper, sported the headline, French newspapers reported Ludwig's death but confused him with Alfred. And one paper, Sport of the Headline, Le Machand de la mort es mort. Okay, the merchant of death is dead. Referring to the fact that Alfred had invented so many explosives and weapons of death throughout his life.

This was apparently a real aid to Alfred who started to consider his legacy. So he decided to make some changes to his will. I'm going to make a change for once in my life. Is that what Michael Jackson was looking at? Are you quoting? Michael Jackson. Yeah. It's a bit off.

Off-calo? No, I'm just saying that Michael Jackson wrote that song about Alfred Nobel. Yeah, maybe also. Looking at the mirror. I'm looking at a man exploding things. Oh yeah, it does make sense. Oh my god. So he changes his will in something and this is something that surprises family friends

and also the general public. Alfred died in 1896 at a villa in Italy at the age of 63. At the time of his death his personal fortune was estimated in today's dollars at nearly 300 million US dollars. That is so much money. And his will stated that he wanted to leave the majority upwards of 95% of the fortune to establish awards that would be known as the Nobel Prizes. I would take one percent of that.

Happily. Really? I'd take any percentage of it if someone was offering me free money. You'd take three million dollars. Yeah, I would. Honestly, no. No shit. No shit.

That's big of you. I would do it. Come believe it. I would take it. I'm looking at you like a different person, right? It's someone was like, hey, I have $300 million. I'd be like, that's so wonderful. Good for you. I hope you use that well. And then they went, do you want one percent of it?

I'd be like, I could. If I. If I have to. No. I couldn't have another bit. No, I could. It's worth. 1.1 I shan't.

1% okay. I'll take it off your hands for a bit. That's what I'd't. 1% okay. I'll take it off your hands for a bit. That's what I'd say. If it helps. If you want me to. If it made it, if it would make you happy. If you'd. It can't be that bad.

If you, if you, I mean if, if it would help your plight. Yeah, your plight. If it's running all in your pocket. Honestly, if you're just paying that in text anyway. Oh my gosh, let me take that off your hand. I'm so sorry. I'm going to relieve you with this burden. You're a big man. I'm a big man. Probably the biggest. Thank you. I'm taking this mall's chunk. Well, he wanted the prizes to reward those who served humanity and also become his real legacy. And I've got to tell you what an incredible PR move.

Yeah, huge. 125 years later, here we are. When someone says no bell, you think of the no bell prize. You don't think of all the people his inventions killed at all. No one talks about that. Also, why do you give a shit about your legacy after you're dead?

Yeah, that is interesting. I guess it's back in the day. Well, I mean, the people who strive for big stuff are always obsessed with legacy. They're always people who strive for big stuff are always obsessed with legacy. They're always people who are a bit off, right? People who end up being prime ministers or premieres or presidents, they're always about, they want to bridge named after them or something. Every, every, every ultimate recognition. Well, honestly, that's, I'll do anything. Like in in Melbourne premieres will always have some big project Jeff Canada had the

exhibition center You had Brax had One I think he was one who changed it to Southern Cross Station. It didn't need a name change, but people want They go I did that it was called This Spencer Street station because it was on Spencer Street, but I thought, you know what? For some reason, I'm going to change that name. Yep.

Yeah, I mean, this show was called, it starts with a question until Matt came along. Yeah. That's my legacy. That's my legacy. The premiere of the pod. But it isn't an interesting thing, but people want to have things. Yeah, but obviously it worked for him a lot. Because yeah, the Nobel Prize is, that's what it's meant.

And if I think Nobel Prize, the first one I think of is peace prize. And it was only relatively recently that I heard that he wasn't the most peaceful guy. And I mean, it was so, I think it was two, three minutes ago that I learned that it was actually a war monger, basically. Yeah, I mean, a lot of money off war. The executors of his will will form the Nobel foundation to take care of Nobel's fortune and organize the award of prizes.

Again, quoting from Britannica, in his will he stipulated that four different institutions, three Swedish and one Norwegian, should award the prize. From Stockholm, the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences confers the prize for physics, chemistry, and economics. And the Carol Academy of Sciences confers the prize for physics, chemistry and economics, and the Carolinska Institute to Conferes the Prize for Physiology or Medicine, and the Swedish Academy confers the prize for literature.

The Norwegian Nobel Committee based in Oslo confirms the prize for peace. Oh, nice. So that's the one that watered it in Norway. A Norway known for peace, too. What do they like? Norway, what else? Yeah, when you think Norway, what do you think?

Norwegian wood. Oh, yeah, a bit of song, fantastic. Yeah, I like that one. I like to harmonize to it in the car. What I think of it, I think of it. Henrik Pipson. Heavy metal. Oh, okay.

Similar. Yeah, but I had to, yeah, what a... I know very little about Norway I'm realizing. It's Norway, no Finland. What's the fjord? Big fjord plays that Finland. No, I've always got the fjords. Yeah, or across that region I think if yeah, Henrik Ibsen the playwright Oslo is the capital is it yeah? Oslo. What do you think when you think Oslo? Great name for a city. It's one of my favorite city names. I can Oslo. Yeah

It's pretty good. Do we have any Norwegian listeners my favorite city names. I can all love. Yeah, it's pretty good Do we have any Norwegian listeners? Yeah, yeah, we met some in London. Yeah, I know it made an indelible mark on me Yeah, I think about them all the time Great people shout out to those great people. I love them We met we have Norwegian listeners. Yeah, I can't show London. Do you remember me? Yes, I do remember touch on that. Did you remember being in the kitchen? Yeah, I did remember. I did all that. I gave it chocolates. Ah, yes, they were the best. They were so nice.

What a piece of shit I am. Yeah, but we've always said that, and they know that too. Yeah, that's fine. So at least, listen to it. Listen to it. Listen to it. Listen to it. Listen to it.

Listen to it. Listen to it. Listen to it. Listen to it. Listen to it. Listen to it. Listen to it. Listen to it. Listen to it. Listen anyway, that's pretty cool. I didn't know that.

Yes, so they're all presented in Sweden except for the Peace Prize which is awarded in Norway. And that. So they're not even done like in one big ceremony, they're done separately. Oh yeah, well I think they're all awarded on the same day. But they have to be. What if you're up for both? What if you've written a really good book and Cured cancer. Okay. Yes. I'm listening My is a good or exploding

That's one of his as well. Yeah, exploding is this one of my notes where I put a note in for that for people who want to do Pub trivia and do well That's often asked in what country is the Nobel Peace Prize award? And everyone always writes down Sweden because they're like oh all of them are that are. That's the odd one out. So remember that. Peace Prize. No way. Oh, so you can, is the question where each of them are? Well, sometimes people just ask, where is the Nobel Peace Prize award and everyone just writes, oh, they're all awarded in Sweden. Right. But they're not at a size of a question. Yeah, it is. But it's the point of trivia. That's frequent, isn't it? To be an asshole.

Yeah, the point of trivia is for the trivia has to go. Ha ha ha ha. Yeah, that's an asshole. That's a bad trivia, not when they, yeah, I hate those ones. You like them to be really easy questions. No, just like you know what or you don't, not sucked in, fuckhead. Yeah, I do hate that actually, because it's like, you know what,

we all have gaps in our knowledge. Well, now I'll tell people so they do know it and they don't, not know. And you, any of those come to mind, any other ones? Oh, I'm actually, you must be one of the trivia's buffs. Maybe we've got one listener who's maybe even more

superior than you. I did more was not required there. Even is superior to you. Who? From the chase. Oh, fantastic, of course. Yes. Brighton Coverdale.

I wanna go. And he's also a really great cricket tweeter. Yeah, it's fantastic. Funny, insightful, great fact. Yeah, it's great to have you listening to the show and use the Australian version of the chase, the fantastic game show. And,

It's day of nice to work for. Play's the shark. Here's the kit okay moving already dies Can I go backwards? I don't think they can or am I thinking of e-mews? Brighton is turning his grave right now because that is not true That's a myth what about sharks or about no brightens not dead Well, I guess back to the Nobel Prize it took took a few years to get organized, partly because the Nobel's, the family of Nobel's were taking by surprise when his will dedicated most of his money to the prize.

They all thought that we're going to get lots and lots of money from uncle. Some relatives even contested the will. I hate these things. So it took years, because it's $300 million, people do not let that go. Yeah, that is a lot of money, but at the same time, it's like stop fighting a will. You know, that feels fucked. Yeah, it's so gross. That's really fucked up. So the problem again, my parents are pretty poor. So your parents aren't worth 300 million. No, first off, so when they go, wait, but I make fun of you all the time for

being from rich family. I know I go along with it, but they're not poor. They listen. They're not poor. You guys are doing great and I love you, but we're not getting much, you know I'm so sorry to show I really hope that they are Spending your inheritance and that's all it is I have this secretly got $330 million And they're at home gone. Yeah, okay, just we can give you one percent of that's all you know Yeah, no problem. You're gonna one percent of your inheritance, no worries. So it took ages to get it happening. We had to form a committee, all the staff, people contested, there were lots of

court stuff. The prizes were first awarded in 1901 on December 10th, the fifth anniversary of Nobel's death, a date they continue to be awarded on. Right. So it is the anniversary of his death. November 10th. I just December. I just December. December. December. December. Right, it is the atmosphere of your set November 10th Remember remember December the 10th of December and

That is the worst wrong. I know it sucks. Does it works for everything? Yeah, it's room all That is that is nearly always Meredith weekend 10th of December that's the same week remember always miss it 26th of August and wait for all them. Remember remember 13th of March. Easy. Easy done. Next, whatever. Board. Are these first prize for Peace went to the Red Cross co-founder Henry Dunant.

German Wilhelm Rontken, one of the first Nobel Prize in physics for his work on x-rays I believe Rontken is a measure for radioactivity Yeah in fucking Chernobyl. Do you know what they talk about that today? Yeah Rontken I'm sure they do yeah, I think I remember talking about that on now because it's a lot of rockin There was a comment on our Chernobyl upset on YouTube recently like why are you laughing about this?

Like oh, we're not laughing about that. No, we'll laugh about Megatrot a giant horse away the cape a Jason to the fucked up story We're never laughing at the fucked up stuff. Yeah Unless it's funny fucked up, you know, it's different. Yeah, yeah, yeah, okay. Who else won awards? Emile this is some of the European names. Emile von Berding, one of the prize in medicine. There's a meal, a popular name at any point. Yeah, yeah. A meal.

A meal. I quite like it. A meal? I mean, do it too. I've never heard of meal twice in a day before. Right. And you kept a chart of that every day for your whole life. I have.

How many meals? Before you got a bet every night. How many meals did I meet? A lot of people eat three round of meals a day, but not me. So many. Look, honestly, these passion fruit goes as a make-a-me-say things I don't want to say. Put words in your mouth.

Terrible, pun-based words. And finally, I just wanted to get to this guy, Dutchman, Jacobus, Henrik-based words. And finally, I just wanted to get to this guy, Dutchman, Jacobus Henrichus Henry Van't Hoff Jr. Oh my god, that's good. Is he a Patreon of S? He won the first prize in chemistry and also the award for best name ever. Yeah, that is a big name.

That's great. Jacobus Henrichus Henry Van't Hoff Jr. Russell Crowe played him. Yes. Yep, more our little metal skirt. Yeah. Good stuff. One of the reasons the award carries such prestige is that there is considerable process in selecting the winners.

Again reading for Britannicus, it's got a fantastic article which I would like to, if you want to read more. Although the winners are announced in October and November, the selection process begins in early autumn of the preceding year, when the prize awarding institutions invite more than 6,000 individuals to propose or nominate candidates for the prizes. Toge Northern Audemum guessing. Yeah, yep.

So what's our spring? Our spring. So almost as soon as the prizes are awarded, they start on next year's. Right. Some 1,000 people submit nominations for each prize. So, almost as soon as the prices are awarded, they start on next year's. Some 1000 people submit nominations for each prize. That's not as many as they would have expected. Really? Okay. And the number... Surely it is, you know, with like online applications.

Yeah. Do you know what I mean? Oh yeah, back in the day, I had to carry a pigeon the shit in. I'm going to put myself in for peace. And I've put myself in for Pasti Guy. Link below. Do noti Guy. Link below. Do not vote. Do you see the link below? Vote please.

It'll be pretty funny. What would you do with the tip Grant? I'd split it with you, Jeff. Fuck yeah. 50-50. If I win it, 50-50 with you. Well, none of us are going to win it. The baby man's going to win it now.

Thanks to you. I really can get Matt to win Jeze I want five grand Dave bullshit Dave wants to use his money to take himself on a trip to two continents Yeah to eat fucking pies was actually care none of the people in this competition care about pies It's some dad. It's a dumb thing to care about. I've just realized. I care about peace. The Jess doesn't actually come from millions of dollars,

but you have not said anything of the sort, and you're begging for more? Please, a bigger piece of the already large pie. You don't understand. Exactly, the more pie the better. You get me now. Thank you. Jess and I are going to share our mega pasty.

Earnings of the $10,000. Yes. No one's going to win it. You just cost me 10 grand. Vote for Dave first. I don't want him to have a bloody bull. And then. And then.

And then. And then. And then. And then. And then. And then. And then. And then. And then. And then. And then. And then. But one thing one definitely not doing is giving the baby man No, no baby Vansucks, but if you can find if any anyone from anonymous is listening

somehow Take away votes from Body not to take away votes from And I I like to take on some pretty big projects. So that video shows somebody's screen. Hello, baby man. You know what you did. Oh dear. I just want, I just want to win something. Well, you can have the Nobel Prize.

Oh, actually no, sorry. Don't you know. You want to keep that to me and then take it away. Well, don't, what I want to say is don't nominate yourself because self-nomination automatically disqualifies the nominee. I love that you're going to be humble. Yeah, you can't. But you can also just turn to your partner and be like, can you please nominate me?

Please. Like, as if, you know, like it's so easy to just ask somebody that you trust who won't judge you. How do you win peace prize? Because it feels like I have not started a single war. And I've been around for a long time. I haven't done any. We will get to that in a second. Well, the, um, the names of the nominees cannot be revealed

until 50 years later. But the Nobel Peace Prize Committee does reveal the number of nominees each year. The record was 376 candidates in 2016. And then it's voted for by people in their field. So it is expert. That's why it's so prestigious, because it's people who should know about your field, talking, picking who's been the field of peace. Other previous winners. John

Lennon. Yeah. Michael Francie. The name of the nominees aren't meant to 50 years. So does that mean you don't know if you're nominated? You know, because you've asked your partner to do. Yeah. No, I've actually heard of some people being rung up in the middle of the night because they're not in Europe answering the phone and thinking it's a prank when they said, how you've just won the Nobel Prize because they didn't tell them in advance. And they're like, what? And you know, a lot of people... You could die not knowing you were not...

Well, you'd probably will die because I'm assuming people aren't being nominated at 10 years old. So they're already fully grown adults and then 50 years later it's like, okay, so this is who is nominated 50 years ago, but those people are dead. It's a nice thing to learn for the grand children or something. Grandma was nominated for the Peace Prize. That's cool. 10 years. Keep the mystery. There's going to be some embarrassing ones down the line, I think. I reckon every Australian Prime Minister's got someone to nominate them for the Peace Prize. Yes, definitely.

Oh, come on. Wow, that's fascinating. Yeah, and there are also many rules to follow. Prizes can only be given to individuals except the Peace Prize, which may also be conferred upon an institution. Where an institution? Oh, yes, and we have been sending piece of broad. Honestly guys. And domestic. Guys. Everyone listening. Just like just be

good to each other. Yeah. Oh good point. Yeah I agree with that as well. Do people realize that the subtext of this show is peace? Yeah. Do you go on? We don't want to say it. Yeah obviously. That's what we're saying. We go with peace. Yeah, go with peace. We're all about taking the peace. Thank you. We are all, you look at the camera when you regret taking the peace.

that we very rarely have to hold marks for the show. That is so, that's, that's clammy as shit. You've put on so sorry, no, but I'm so sorry that I went to shake your hand. Show us your mic hand. Oh, am I not freak? Oh, you were in a t-shirt. Yeah, I took my jumper off because I got too hot.

Yeah, look at Dave's glimmering. Yours was dripping, mate. All right, gross. Dave, do your one. I'm sorry. Gross soggy boys. An individual may not be nominated posthumously. So as soon as you die, that's it for you. You can never win.

No matter what you did in life. But a winner who dies before receiving the prize may be rewarded it posthumously. This has happened so far three times. Once in 1961, 1931, and then Ralph M. Steinman for Physiology or Medicine in 2011. The committee weren't actually aware that Steinman had died when he was named the winner, so that when they inquired to give him the prize, they found out that he was dead. And because that's against the rules, they were like, oh, we stuffed up. So they gave him the prize anyway.

Right. His family got the prize. Did you notice the coincidence there? 31, 61, 21. Yeah, that's interesting. Oh my god. Numbers that end in one. Well done.

What's the pattern there? I got it. Winners receive a gold medal at a diploma, basically a certificate, which is the most prestigious part. And also, sweet, sweet cash. There's a lot. He did not die a rich man for nothing. In 2017, the laureates were awarded a prize

of 9 million Swedish croiners, which is just shy of $1 million US dollars. Wow. So you get a lot of money. So there's six million given away every year. So that's just earning interest, or are they also having donors? No, so it is based on,

so there's a committee set up, which is basically a business they invest the money and the money actually changes slightly every year depending on how much money is what are they facing in a lot i'd love the peace prize to be funded by i wouldn't love it but the irony would be delicious Delicious I'm but it are you gonna talk at all because I believe like Some of the winners for the peace prize have been Pretty yeah, I'm gonna go through each prize in a few of the famous winners and stuff I just so much money so sometimes two winners are named and very rarely three for the same sort of Invention on discovery and then you have to split it even right. Did you know one year, the winner was you. You're talking about time,

magazine, the person of the year. Time magazine, person of the year. One year was the personal computer. What a cop out. And it was like the cover's like a mirror or something. You. Yes, just question. Question for the back.

Question for that note, please. Did I have to use that money for like to continue with their work, or is it just like this? Absolutely, I'm not like the pie competition. Did I use that money for like to continue with their work? Or is it just like I've set up a lot of the pie competition you can spend the money whenever you want you can Spend on something with a good friend. No, you can spend on something dumb for example a trip to Africa in South America to eat a pie and a mountain Yes, yep, you can spend your half on anything you like Thanks, Matt But maybe we'll spend it on the people who voted for us.

I'm not saying we will, but maybe we will. Maybe we will. Vote for us. A vote for Jess and Matt is a vote for peace. A vote for Jess and Matt is a vote for Baby Man. Let's be clear about that. Ha ha ha. Occasionally, this will not be happening any of us when

the price has been refused by the winner. Oh, I love that. Adolf Hitler forbade three Germans, Richard Kuhn or Kuhn in chemistry in 1938. Adolf Button Dundt in chemistry in 1939 and Gerhard Domacht, who won for physiology on medicine in 1930. That's good. he said you can't accept these prizes. Why? Cause he was jealous, he wanted it. He went to Eva Broly's like, why didn't you nominate me? That was my access.

So in this report you've named two different ameals and two different adults. The adults were the same sentence. They were indirectly involved in that. I can't say that pre-word or two out of I imagine was a much more popular name Yeah, after that. It's kind of been tainted for a bit like a beast like the first name Michael Jackson You can't use that anymore. I can't have Michael Jackson Isn't there like wasn't one of the actors in black pants a name Michael Jackson? No Michael B Jordan Michael B Jordan. I knew it was one of the famous MJs

me Michael J Fox Michael Jordan Distant fourth now. Michael Jackson. Yeah. So those three people were banned by Hitler. My name's James. I know. I know that.

I call you MJ. Yeah. MJ number three is what I call. Yeah. Obviously, Jordan number one. Yeah. Michael J. Fox number two. And, okay, you're number four. My brother's also MJ

But I call him MJ. You put your brother ahead of me. Yeah. Oh, because your parents listening. You don't want them to know that you don't like him I don't want them to know I don't like him I figure that was a secret. Yeah, it's a secret that I don't like him. Oh, this bit's getting at it It certainly isn't. So those three people were banned from receiving their awards. After the war, they got their diplomas and medals, but they did not receive the prize money. Why did he say they couldn't have it?

Cap his stuff, would you be? Oh, they got the medals, but not the cash. Sorry, you weren't here to get the cash. We've reinvested it. I would take the money over a medal any day. Really? You take it, my doll's ever a medal. Hmm, you think it has someone? I never wear my, I've got so many medals.

I just never wear them. Yeah. You know what I mean? Ron Melbourne. Comes to every time I go to clear out my wardrobe, hold them and I'm like, oh, do they spark joy? Yeah. Cash does. cash does.

Cash does. Metals? Metals? It wanes. Two Nobel laureates, John Paul Sartre in 1964, a wonderful literature, and Lee Duc, two, who won for peace in 1973. Tucked, I.

They declined their awards. So they weren't told that, unlike the three German guys, who were told they couldn't accept it. These people actually said no. Sartre declined the award, so they weren't told that unlike the three German guys who were told they couldn't accept it These people actually said no such a decline the award as he declined all official honors Oh, he's a bit anti-establishment and Lee declined the award due to the situation in Vietnam that he was involved in at the time Right, so Imagine that you've got a lot of money on the table in that situation. You've got to stand up and say no. Thank you Imagine that, you've got a lot of money on the table in that situation, you've got to stand up and say no thank you. The Nobel Prizes I mentioned for Peace is the only prize awarded outside of Sweden, and that is because when Nobel was alive Norway in Sweden were united under one monarch. We split them between the two. The International Committee of the Red Cross has received the Nobel Prize three times, more than any other, but the peace prize has been the most controversial

of all the prizes as Matt was alluding to before. Some strange people have been nominated, Joseph Stalin, from the Soviet Union, who killed millions and millions of his own people, was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize in 1945 and 1948 for his efforts to end World War II. So not a great guy. Adolf Hitler was also nominated once in 1939. As a joke. Oh.

Oh, that's f**k. You have to pay to enter or you just have to buy the TV. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You get a text at an SMS card. You put it in. You're official. He was nominated by anti-fascist and Swedish parliamentarian, a guy called EGC Brand, who submitted Hitler's

name as a satirical criticism. That is very satirical. I love satire myself. Do you love satire? I love satire. Do you all love war? I love satirical criticism. Oh yes, thank you.

My favorite. The reason is in 1939, British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain was nominated to receive the Peace Prize for his role in negotiating the Munich agreement, which seeded part of Czechoslovakia to Germany. Brand put Hitler forward for the prize claiming that if Chamberlain could be nominated for talking Hitler out of a war, then Hitler should be nominated for not starting a war. He had to swiftly withdraw the nomination when it was actually taken seriously and people didn't get his joke So he was briefly nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize and then led that year start a world war two

That is a good bit. Yeah, what a great deal. You'd be standing there going guys Guys, this is funny. I'm a hat my Gandhi or Gandhi was never awarded the peace prize And this is viewed as probably the biggest oversight by the Nobel or people when talking about Nobel prizes. Including some peace prize workers themselves, including the Secretary of the Norwegian Nobel Committee in 2006 who said, the greatest submission in our 160 history is undoubtedly that Mahatma Gandhi never received the Nobel Peace Prize. Gandhi could do without the Nobel Peace Prize, with the Nobel Committee can do with that Gandhi. That's the question. That is a good question. And it does all start with the question. It does all start with the question. Fantastic title. Thank you. That's

on a mind as well. Jane Adams was nominated 91 times between 1916 and 1931 by different people and she was finally awarded the Nobel Peace Prize after that. But imagine that. 91 times. That's a Merrill Street effort. People keep putting you forward. Next up we have the Nobel Peace Prize in Literature, but just the Nobel Prize in Literature. It's probably has the most household names. These are people that have won. That are free. Yeah, honestly, I'm going to start with one that probably not that many people know but Marissa mate a link

Eugene O'Neill who we mentioned last week on the Unibom episode. Yeah, he wrote where's Oli? Yeah Yeah, the ass man come with and long days journey tonight. Ernest Hemingway George did dust the spot series George, but George George George George Bernard Shaw. Okay, yep, Postman Pat. Thank you, T.S. Eliot. Yeah, he wonko. It's a name of a Tism song. William Faulkner.

Faulkner in the road. Dog in the bone. All right, I will. I've got a few more to go, no? Okay, Albert Camus. Oh Camus, another, he comes up in a few Tism songs as well. Yeah Outside uh ZZ outside is outside. I think Z out side uh. Oh, these outside. Oh, I fun fact. I read that book to impress a boy

Go on next was the boy impressed tell us about the success was successful? I made out with him. Oh hell yeah! And then what happened? It can move. Then he made it. He made it. Hey, I just read can move. I don't know. I want to have a can mooch.

Yes, I'm sorry. You just revealed something that. What happened after you made out with him? He made out with my best friend. Like immediately after. Like turned around. Did you feel like a bit of an outsider? No, for some reason I was like, hey with it What I don't know why because it sounds like it was a

Lovely guy. I love the girl really great girl. Great girl Anyway, John Steinbeck Sam you'll beck it Bob Dylan and Australia's only winner of the list of surprise Patrick White Bob Bob, I wanted a couple years ago, and I was very controversial very controversial people They were like, yeah, he writes poetry baby and people were like, absolutely not. Yeah, it was, it was kind of made the award a bit of a joke. And he also distancing that keynote. Yeah. I had no idea. Well, you should read a book. I really should. So Bob Dylan won, but it was impressive boy. You should read a book, something that Bob Dylan doesn't really do. Yeah. He doesn't read books. It's right on me. Famously doesn't read books. It's the right of me, though. Famously doesn't read books.

A bunch of famous people missed out. So Bob Dylan's one one, but these people haven't. Leo told story people like, why, how did he win? But you know what? But you know what, but you know what, for a, where Wolf of London comes again.

James Joyce. James Joyce, obviously, wrote, up there, because Ailey, the song about Fuddy. Marcel Proust? Proust. These are all like, Tism of reference all of this. They're all very high-rat people. I went to a Tism concert and they had a guy hosting a save our Tism telephon. And for whatever reason, they made his character, they named him Marcel Proust. I didn't get it,

the Thomas still don't get it, but Bloody Hell, that's funny stuff. Yeah, that is good stuff. What is Marcel Proust on? Uh, famous for a very, very, very long book, what is it called? And it has a thing that's frequently referenced, Madalions in it, which is that which uses memory. What's it? We love our children. We love our ghosts. We love our children. Let's have some toast. For that metal line. It's so close. In search of lost time and it's like thousands. It's 4,000 pages long. That's too long. That's a lot of pages. That's a lot of words. If every page had one word, that's a lot more. It's still too many. Yeah. Let me just finish this list of trying to get through it. Mark Twain, Gertrude Stein and

Henrik Yipson, who I mentioned as the famous Norwegian, all overlooked. Winston Churchill was nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize but was actually awarded one for literature, something that people often get confused about with it. Because he wrote some very... Very thick. Yeah, fan fanfiction he loves fanfiction your famous dyes and uh... and um... right biography is about his own life yeah cool

uh... we will fact them on the beaches etc. was that one of his? yeah that's one of the John Luthgale uh... physics is the another prize Einstein, probably the most famous winner of this one in 1921 i've heard of him i good to hear

but um... and then there's physiology in medicine. Now this medical based award is given for physiology in medicine. It's often awarded years and years after this discovery because it takes such a long time to figure out how revolutionary or successful medical discovery is. Yeah sure. You better have penicillin or winner. Yes, Alexander Fleming. Marie Curie. I'm sorry, Marie Curie. Oh, sorry. I always confuse those two. What did she do?

She won two. She won two to do a brotherly. She won two to do a brotherly. She won two to do a brotherly. She won two to do a brotherly. She won two to do a brotherly. Yeah, two different categories as well. What?

Chemistry. Something is only two people. It was one of those ones where like, it's a weird range of topics like some specific science ones that could easily have been the science Nobel Prize. Sure. Like there should be a Nobel Prize for science and then one of those ones you've saved a Nobel Prize for car racing or something. Right? We're jumping by jumping over something. No, just standing. Jumping or standing, a standing leap.

A standing jump. Standing jump. You should get a Nobel Prize for standing. You see that video of Bill Gates jumping your chair from the 90s? Exactly. He would have won. Fantastic video.

They said it in a mark. I hear you can jump in office, Chess, from standing up. And he goes, depends how tall the chair is. That's great. That quote is why he's the richest man in the world. Yeah, no, you're a son. I wouldn't have answered that way. Do you remember when he came in and closed down

home assistance business? Oh, yeah. That was fun. I didn't get rich by buying people. So physiology of medicine, that's the one where it takes the longest time you discover something and then it comes back. You actually get the prize. The average time is 20 to 30 years between discovery and award.

Whoa. But sometimes it's longer. Peyton Russe had to wait 50 years to be awarded his prize on his work on viruses that caused tumors. 50 years. 50 years. 50 years after you are recognized. And sometimes, because it takes so long, people are awarded the prize and later we found

that their work was in fact bullshit. Oh. Ega Moniz received the prize in physiology of medicine in 1949 for developing the now extremely discredited frontal lobotomy. Oh right, which is still a famous phrase. Yeah. You need a frontal lobotomy. What a great putty.

Yeah. And there was a big period of time where people thought that that was right. And now people are like, no, you are destroying someone's brain. Yeah, you're taking part of their brain. Is there someone about, I'd rather put a bottle in front of me than have a frontal lobotomy? Is that a thing? Sounds like it is a one.

No, I think it's a three-stooge or something. Wow, that's insane. Yes, sometimes they get it really wrong. Danny's physician, Johann Fibidger, again, sorry, sorry to the offense. One of the 1926 Nobel Prize in Medicine for demonstrating that roundworm caused cancer in rats and mice. People were like, that's a big discovery.

Only a problem was, it doesn't. Okay. This was shown a few years later, but by the time Fibidgear was dead due to cancer himself. Oh, yeah, roundworm. Well, most likely, Fibidgear specimens had died because they were fed a diet without any vitamin A. And that's why they developed this cancer. It had nothing to do with the species. The Nobel was never rescinded, but in 2010, an official with the Carolin Institute, which is associated, admitted

it was one of our biggest blunders that the institute had ever made. Whoa. Oh, and they accepted an nomination for Adolf Hitler. Yeah, I know. And that was our top 10 biggest blunders. Canning him down. Unlike the Oscar statues that I mentioned on the Academy Awards episode, winners can sell their medals. Although this is incredibly rare. Physics winner Leon Leederman who won in 1988 sold his Nobel earlier this year to cover medical care expenses and it

sold for three quarters of a million dollars. You should be allowed to do that. Yeah I agree. But far out that sucks. Well this is a more of a filter story. Russian billionaire Alicia Well, this is a more of a filter story. Russian billionaire Alicia Usmanov paid $4.7 million to buy the Gold Medal Nobel Awarded to biologist James Watson for his work deciphering DNA's double helix. For then he gave the medal back to the laureate. He said the medal should remain with the winner and the money he paid for it should go towards research. Oh, that's great.

That's nice. Yeah. Wow. Finally, the final prize is the economics one, which was first reward in 1969. Nice. Nice. Nice. My favorite thing I read about this as an economist, I'm sure Robert Lucas winner of the 1995 Nobel Prize in Economics would be very annoyed by what happened to his and his finances. He had to split his $1 million prize money with his wife, who he divorced seven years earlier. Their divorce agreement stated, quote, wife shall receive 50% of any Nobel Prize. But the clause expired on October 31, 1995 had Lucas won any year after that he would have kept the whole million dollars.

What a specific course! Imagine getting... you'd have to be confident that your... I love the world. That's a lot of life is pretty likely to win something. But they're also developed seven years earlier. So if you're still bitter after seven years, like if I had put that in there as a little bit of a like a fuck you, like right at the end of our marriage right if you One seven years later. I'd be like that was a bit of a piss take you should probably keep that but again, I'm a nice person

Yeah, yeah, I think Devilsis seem to be a thing that can go a little nasty. Yeah, interesting. I've heard this but also like half a million dollars. Yeah, interesting. I've heard this, but also like half a million dollars. Yeah, true. Maybe it does have like some of that stuff. The point is that the partner was supporting them and giving them the possibility to do the work that earns them that stuff. The ones that I find annoying is when it's like Paul McCartney did all his work. And then he had a divorce that cost him so much money when all that money and everything was made well before they even met. Yeah, that's it. Sometimes before they were even born.

Oh, with Paul McCartney, no, just rock and roll stars, marrying young. In that case, fuck them. Yeah. Finally, possibly fun facts. Some of them aren't fine, but they are just to sum it all up among the 892 Nobel laureates. This is definitely not fun, but it's sort of highlights highlight something only 48 have been women Of the how many 892 That is not good stuff. It's so bad isn't which is what about 5% yeah women left a game now the first woman I say that is the feminist on this show you know you say that a

lot leaning when some awards leaning and when leaning and when that's what you say my book by now online the first woman to receive a Nobel Prize was of course Mara Curie who's the only woman to receive receive a prize twice yeah that's how good Penicillin was. She invented Penicillin so nice. She was awarded for it twice. Did she win them close to one another? The Nobel Prize? Do you know? I think there are a few years apart. Yeah, not that long. Same category. No, two different categories. She's one of the only

epiphany of the event. Chemistry and physics. And her daughter also won one. Wow, that's that's got to be their family is extremely so the 48 and she and one of the most curious of three one of them was shared with her husband to P.S. Oh, that dog. Well, you've got time, yes, if you're wondering if you want to win this because the average age of a Nobel laureate across all prize categories is 59 years old. I got 30 years. Damn it. Sorry Matt, time's passed. To date, the youngest Nobel Peace Prize laureate is Malala Yusuf Sy.

Of course. Who was 17 years old when she won in 2014? That's pretty young I guess. The oldest Nobel Peace Prize laureate today is Joseph Rotblatt. Yep. Who was 87 years old when he won in 1995. The devil's number. 87.

I think it is. Is it? Is it? It's said ain't away from a ton. Oh, right. Mm. Yeah. That one's for you, Broughton.

Of this fact comes from scientificamerican.com. This is when Joe Bardeen co-won the physics Nobel in 1956. It's a John. What did I say, Joe? Yeah. Stop reading over my phone. This is when Joe Bardeen co won the physics Nobel in 1956. So John. What did I say Joe? Yeah. Stop reading over my phone. I can't help it. It's right in front of me.

Are you reading along the whole time? I'm on a great angle. I can't say it at all. I'll look over here. When John Bardeen co won the Nobel physics prize in 1956. He left most of his family at home rather than bringing them along for the award ceremony. Quarrett, his son told me that his father, one of them all to stay in school and study for whatever test they had explained.

Scientific American video editor, Alene Orgabrown, organ brown. He was loath to take off. Orgabrown, text you like. Shut up. He was so close to the end. He was loath to take time off work himself. The King of Sweden, who was at the At the ceremony noted the absence of his family and actually sculpted Bardeen

The Nobel laureate promised the king I'll bring them next time Then in 1972 Bardeen indeed won a second Nobel making him the third person history to win the prize twice That time he made sure to bring his entire family That's sweet. He's that nice. I like that the king is so family orientated. Yeah, tung someone off of that. Oriented?

That's why it's the king. You're the king. You're the king. King. His name's King. You're the king, king, king. You're the king, king, king. Three laureates were in prison when they received the award.

Yeah, all right, bad balls. All of them win us with the Nobel Peace Prize. The baddest of the baddest. Yeah, really. But you can be peaceful, but then be in prison for fraud. Yes, yeah. And most of them are in prison

by people who are trying to oppress them. Right. Actually getting the people. You're in jail for the man, Della. Oh, press them. Oh, definitely heard in press. You need to announce the eight. Yeah, I'm also being infected by these beers You're doing well and final factor. I'm sure Nobel alpha Nobel that's that is would be happy with this legacy He went from Mera extraordinary to Nobel Peace Prize. Yeah

Mera or tunnel explorer. Thank you. Um, tunnel to hell. Drain clearer. Yeah. But I'm sure he'd also be stoked that the synthetic element, nobellium, was also named after. An element named after?

Yeah, so that's pretty... Mine would be Bopium. Oh. Bopium is fun. Yeah. It's the main chemical in bubbles. Whoa. Boppyam.

Boppyam. No one had ever named the bubbles before. What do you call them bubbles? Bubbles. Yeah, but what's in them? Boppyam. Oh. Dave, can I just say all of those facts are fun.

Thank you. Well, wow. Thank you so much. That does bring us to the end of the episode. That was great. It's just fascinating thing really. It's really interesting, yeah. There are so many more things I could mention. There's a parody prize called the Eag Nobel

that I'm sure people will mention if I don't mention it. Just briefly. Did you mention who suggested this topic? Yeah. Yeah, me. Okay, use a front mark. That's right. How could I forget me? Hey, we've got to give him another shout out

because you suggested something. So it was only ever suggested once. Yeah, and this is amazing. He's a little glimpse of how I'm looking. I remember starting to research this topic way back in the day, we'd probably be in single digits when I was considering topics. And then sort of, by, I put it up for the Patreon

voter couple of times, at the moment, I'm on a free choice where people aren't voting for it. I went, you know what, are we gonna do it? Are we gonna do it? Are we gonna do it? Are we gonna do it? Are we gonna do it? Are we gonna do it?

Are we gonna do it? Are we gonna do it? Are we gonna do it? Are we gonna do it? Are we gonna do it? Are we gonna do it? Are we gonna do it? Are we gonna do it?

Are we gonna do it? Are we gonna do it? Are we gonna do it? Are we gonna do it? Are we gonna do it? Are we gonna do it? Are we gonna do it? Are we gonna do it? Are we gonna do it? Are we gonna do it? Are we gonna do it? very prestigious, but I knew very little about how it actually works.

I reckon that that's actually probably pretty true across the board. One of those things has been around so long now, you accept the prestige, but never really think about why. Exactly. Well, that brings us to everyone's favorite section of the show. It is the fact that Quotal Question is the central. The dance of the little question. Where did you get the world? question, the samurai. And this is the section to show where Patreon supporters, in particular on the Sydney Shornburg Deluxe Rest in Peace Memorial, additional level, for sure, you

get to give us a fact, a quote or a question, you also get to give yourself a title. And this week it's one of our longest serving supporters. That's not the right way to say it. That's fine. Brian Kalella. Brian. Who traveled out from America early in the year to see us live at a few shows.

He also. Very cool to meet him. There's been a guest on primates before. And he's given himself the title. He's also been a guest on two-and-a-thing tank. Very funny Clever Man. He's a title, self-chosen, is... I'm guessing he got in... What was the episode where we had the chat about how to pronounce Mere or Maya or... Maya. I don't know how that works. It's pretty recent in the last two months.

Yeah, it was an American, obviously, maybe three months. Yeah, I can't remember why. Maya, it's related somehow to what he said. Well, yeah, very related because the title is given himself is, depending on how you pronounce it, maya, maya, maya, maya, maya, maya, which I think is a bit of a play on major, major, major, major, major from that famous book, Dave, what am I?

The Lord of the Rings. No, the... What's Fellowship of the Rings? Major, major, return of the King. Return of the Jedi. Oh, what is it? Satvik. Satvik.

It's about an extra- It's a war novel. Oh, it's a derrick- Catch 22. Catch 22, thank you. So I'm sorry. There's a character in it called major, major, major, maybe major, major, major, major.

And anyway, so that's funny already. It's good stuff. And his question is, how would you pronounce Merylty? Well, I guess that's how I would pronounce it. Maralty. No, I'd say Maralty. Maralty.

Maralty. A bit like, Maral Street. Maral Street. Maral Street. I'd pronounce it Maral Street. Do you need, I should have what I should have done was I showed it to. Made my decision.

Yeah, that's how you would say. Maral Street. Yes. Maral Street. Maral Street. Well, there's how you would say. Merrill Street, yes. Merrill Street. Merrill Street. Well, there it is. I think you've got a pretty, so one vote for Merrill and two votes for Merrill Street.

Yeah, one. Yeah. Thank you so much for that question. I hope that's all that you hope that would do their brine, your bloody legend. Thank you so much for your support. Amazing. He's been long term the only supporter on that level. Whatever what's that level called?

It's even above the Sydney shop. Yeah. Anyway, very important and lonely level and thank you so much for supporting us on it. Thank you Brian. You're a great man. Maybe the greatest man. I'm gonna nominate him for a noble prize That's two noble one Okay, how do you pronounce that noble or no bell? Yeah, that's right isn't it? It's the doctor of podcasts that level doctor of podcasts. Are we well? I mean you really then you should be called doctor me. Meh Meh Meh Meh, Brian Kalella Dr

Meh Meh Meh Meh Meh Meh. Yes. Thank you so much, Brian. You God damn legend from Seattle in Washington state. Now the other section we'd like to do with this. The other favorite part of the show. Let's be honest. Have we set this up? No, you have not. Now, if people want to support the show,

they want to support the show like Brian does at the absolute top level or even at a very entry level, you still get rewards for every single level of support. You go to our Patreon page, patreon.com slash do go on pod and you get little rewards like voting for the topics sort of deciding what the show talks about every single week. You can be part of a Facebook group. You get a lot of fun. I love getting in there.

I'm really, it's maybe the most wholesome corner of the internet. Go at people that are really sweet. I kind of believe how lovely people are. It is so nice. Two bonus episodes every single month that no one else hears. And a bunch of other stuff like you hear

about the live shows first. And another part of the thing is, we share it out to some people. Yes. And I'd love to kick it off if that's okay with you. Please. Well, usually Jess comes up with a game then. Oh, yes I'd love to kick it off if that's okay with you. Well usually just comes up with a game That oh, yes, I want to give them a Nobel prize.

It is IA, well yes. It is an IA and it's got Ed Helms in it. Ed Helms, but I think maybe it's by maybe it is I will yes it is an I and it's got Ed Helms in it Ed Helms, but I think maybe it's It's by the McGruberg eye maybe I might be wrong there, but I think it might be said in our live alum Miguel are Teta I'm way off.

inspired by a certain college basketballer, which we shall not mention for time. This is no time. Ted Sanders, of course, are fantastically the shortest of the short shorts. 20 years later, they realized, embarrassingly, he was actually nude. That had to be seen the broad,

but that time Ted was dead, so. So, Ted and he'd spent the cash. They just had a tiny dick that no one could see. We're not saying that about Ted. He had it wrapped up his butt crack. Yeah, that's better. Yeah, we've got to give a big, I love to, I love to shout out to Ted, but I also love to shout out to the good people of Brisbane.

Yes, we were walking back to the hotel about a couple of hours ago. And what did you see assigned for what I believe was some sort of strip club, a sign that said, what was the dress requirement? Oh, yes. Was it a strip club? I thought it was just like a pub. It was just a club, did it?

Oh yeah, okay, maybe it was a name. Not all clubs, a strip club. You can strip in any club though. Yes, no, this one, I'm club. You can strip in any club though. You're sorry. Not on this one, I'm not. You can't. Because it had a dress code, like a lot of places do. And it was t-shirts, shorts, and clothes, shoes,

minimum. Shorts on minimum clothes. See, where is it? Brisbane, what are you like? LAUGHTER Um, can I come in with my speedo? If I could see your dick, you can't come in. The best part is that it happened so many times that they had to make a sign.

Before that, they had to explain to people, but now they just tap it on. And the guy in speedo just walks to the next spot, pub and says, there's no sign there man. Yeah, sack out Saturdays, obviously an exception. It's cool. Yeah, but every other day. Which is tonight, sack out Saturday, and we are holding truth. So this glass table.
