In a matter of the people of the state of California
versus Orenthal James Simpson, case number B.A.019.
And so, my fellow Americans, ask not what your country can do for you.
Ask what you can do for your country.
Taylor, we're here, and we should do an intro because you have some crazy stuff to tell me.
Oh, my God. I have a crazy fucking story to tell you.
Welcome to Doom to Fail.
we're the podcast that brings you
to history's
most notorious disasters
and epic failures
twice a week
every week
I am Taylor
joined as always
by Fars
and
oh my goodness
so Fars
you're in Texas
it's true
this is not
it's just whatever
I'm in Joshua Tree
did you see the news
of what happened here
this weekend
no
okay we had a wild
fucking
going into the weekend
so Friday
it rains
it's not like part of the story
but like torrential downpours and I do the thing that I do like the California thing where I stand
outside and stare at it and I'm like what is this I love it yeah I'm like is it is it is there water
coming from the sky like it's thundering and I'm like what is that noise like I've never heard thunder
before Taylor my um my Twitter profile picture is a picture of me Thomas and Ryan in LA
looking out the window oh yeah yeah yeah because it was raining that day you can't stop staring at it
you're like, what is this?
It says, what's happening?
So, anyway, the rain stopped.
There were puddles.
Everything was fine.
So at 3.30 in the morning, my husband says, Taylor, Taylor, there's gunshots, there's gunshots.
Wake up.
I live in the middle of fucking nowhere.
I live on the top of a hill next to a mountain.
Across, it's hard to explain, but behind my house, my house goes down and then back up another mountain.
On the top of that other.
mountain that I can like see from my house is a house. That house is by itself and it has the
longest, steepest driveway I've ever seen that goes all the way down. And I can see that
house really clearly from my house, even though it's like pretty far away. So it's 3.30 in the
morning and there are like a dozen cop cars at this house across the backyard. They are looming up
the big driveway. They are their sirens on. All these things are happening. Wanswheres he heard gunshots.
we're just staring at it and the cop cars like keep coming keep coming we're like is someone in the
house like shooting someone like what is going on and then so we like make sure all our doors are locked
make sure that our cameras are on and then in the morning here's what happened this guy they
i don't know what happened i don't know why they chased him but they chased him from riverside which
is like a hundred miles away yeah like so far away from me they chased him all the way from
Riverside into Joshua Tree. So this person is like 20 year old dude, I don't know. I don't
know if he stole a car. I don't know nothing. But he, they had a chase all the way through the
mountains into Joshua Drew. He gets into this neighborhood and he goes up this driveway that I'm
sure he thought was a street and then he's at a dead end. So he gets out of the car, the 3.30 in the
morning, start shooting up at the police. No one got hurt. That's what Juan heard and woke him up.
And then the guy goes down and he went not in our direction. He went in the other
direction and he disappeared into the neighborhood they found him 12 hours later like a couple
blocks from us just walking around um I heard a rumor that he was in an Airbnb and that he had
like fallen asleep and there was like a family there that didn't speak English and they're
they called the police but I don't know if that's true but I do know that people had pictures of him
like walking around the streets because our whole neighborhood was on lockdown and we left
and they like searched our cars on the way out it was wild man I miss California
There's so many car chases here.
So many car chases.
I never thought there'd be one here.
This isn't really a car chase place.
Josh Shreys a weird.
Yeah, that's that one, I mean, I would be, yeah.
Yeah, I mean, when we used to live in L.A., though, like that was all the time.
All the time.
All the time.
All the time.
You watch it on TV all the time.
You stop what you're doing and watch TV and you watch the car chase.
Yeah.
Or the best was when the helicopters were overheading, like, all right, who is it?
Who is it?
Where's the floodlight pointing?
exactly those are constantly
because yeah it's an hour
and 13 minutes between like
Riverside and where I am
like yeah yeah Riverside
Riverside's like that's more LA
like it's not LA it's like more LA
you have to go through the mountains which is
really wild
sorry what was he accused of doing stealing
a car I don't know
there's no way he stole a car and shot at police
like you don't shoot at police for
no I don't know what he did no I don't know
I know that he abandoned the car at the house that that's like I can see from my house because he had nowhere left to go.
But I don't know if it was his car.
I have no idea.
I don't know what he did and why they chased him.
But he, the pictures of him walking around, he's like, he's like a very little guy.
And he's just like walking around.
It's like, what are you going to do?
There's nowhere to go.
Like you can't walk out of Joshua train.
You'll die.
Yeah.
In the desert.
You know?
So, yeah, it was wild.
Everybody was very relieved when he was caught so we could move on with our day.
I mean, it is, like, I've had this thought, I mean, I don't, I mean, I don't know why I'm saying this out loud, but I don't own a gun. Mostly because I have Luna and Luna is just like, I mean, anybody you sees her is like, I'm, I don't need to be here, you know? Um, but, um, but I've thought I should probably get a gun because if a situation would arise when it was like, I literally had no other choice, but to use it, I'd want to know that I have the choice, you know? And this guy apparently had a gun.
he for sure had a gun I don't need a gun I'm not going to shoot my gun across like I don't know I can't do distance really far away across a mountain and possibly hit a guy when cops are next to him so here here's also the other thing that I kind of love about Texas is the concept of you know the mutual assured destruction piece where you kind of almost don't need a gun because everybody assumes you already have one you know my dad always
I was talking about how in Florida there, like, you know, there's a guy he knows who's a pizza cook and he, like, he's a gun, again, his whole holster while he's cooking pizzas at a restaurant, you know, it's like, it's dangerous. I was like, you should have you're all at heat. I don't know. Yeah. Yeah. That's scary though. Yeah. It was scary. I, I, I didn't, I texted my neighbor and she was like, I didn't wake up. My daughter did. But like, what are it? It's a weird thing because you're like, where are that possibly becoming from? There's like very little things around here, you know? Yeah. A few things around here.
Wow. Okay. Well, while it's up, it was wild. It was a wild Friday night, Saturday.
I didn't have as eventful eventful the weekend as you did, thankfully. So good. I'm glad.
Cool. Well, should we dive in? Yes. Are you emotionally and do I look very pink? I scratched myself a long time ago and then I was working on something that was kind of rusty and then it started bleeding again. But like I don't think it hit the rest, but I'm not.
not sure. How would I know if I had tennis? I've been looking it up. But now I think I look
very pink. I don't think you look pinker than normal, but I feel like I look brighter
than normal. And I don't know if it has to do with the screens or what.
It isn't about you for us. It doesn't about my possible tennis. Sorry, sorry. Of course
to make everything about me. Um, okay. So Taylor, you're going to have to help me come up with
the, so I'm going to tell us a story that is very cool. Do I go first today? Oh,
shit. Do you? You can go if you want to.
if you're already in a role.
I'm in a mood.
Go.
You go.
I'm sorry.
Okay.
I'm excited about this story because this story I can't believe that this is unknown and I've never heard of it.
It's one of those.
Good.
Because my only, my only caveat to me going first was I was going to mention that I hope you're not doing 9-11.
Okay.
So now that I know you're not, continue.
Then we're covered.
So you're going to have to help me come up with a name for this or a title for this episode.
I don't even know what to call this.
The title that I put in my outline is called The Galapagos Affair, which is actually the name of a super obscure documentary about this story that seemingly nobody's seen.
I tried to watch, like, I watched a little bit of it earlier today.
It's totally free on YouTube.
And all the comments are like, how does nobody know about this?
Like, it's really cool.
So.
cool you'll have to think of a name for this title because we can't use use that probably yes we
can i think i feel like i learned from last podcast you can't copyright titles i think that is just
book titles boo okay continue we also none of this is monetized either so like who cares yeah
so there's that continue um okay so my story today is going to cover a tropical murder mystery
on a remote island named Floriana Island,
which is part of the Galapagos Island chains.
So this story kind of teaks out of the late 30,
late 20s, mid 30s.
That's kind of the time we're talking about here.
I just got the urge to raise my hand
like I'm actually in a meeting with you.
I have a stupid question.
How do you raise you?
You nailed it.
Where is the Galapagos Islands?
They are off the coast of Ecuador in the Atlantic Ocean.
Atlantic, got it.
Yep.
So our story, weirdly enough, kind of starts in like,
re-Hitler rise in Germany.
So I'm going to do like a super bullet-pointed version of this,
where we're going to start in Germany in the 20s as a back,
blog to kind of set the set everything up here so quick world history folks 1921 is when
hitler became head of the nazi party 1923 is when he attempted to overthrow the weimar
republic as part of the failed beer push haul beer hall beer hall push beer hall putz putz putz um
um yeah putz i think it's pooch you're the you're the resident german expert so
I don't give for me. Pooch, P-U-T-S-E-H, Pooch.
There you go ahead.
1924, he is released from prison and had written M-Komp, which was gaining traction in the German populace.
And then he regained the party control and sort of rebuilding the Nazi party.
1929 was kind of the inflection point for Hitler.
That was like when the Great Depression crippled Germany's economy.
And one of the reasons why they were like, we'll go with anybody but what we currently have.
Hitler was like a great solution to them.
So if you were a politically attuned German at this time, you kind of saw the writing on
the walls, right?
Like you knew where this was had.
This was not going to claw itself back at this point.
Our main characters for this story are two such personally attuned individuals.
One, Dr. Friedrich Ritter and his partner, lover, girlfriend, whatever you want to call her,
dory stoch
they were Germans who saw the direction the world was going in
and decided that they didn't want to be a part of it
and they wanted to kind of pursue more of a Robinson Crusoe lifestyle
thinking that that would kind of be the way to get away
from what was inevitably heading their way
which was obviously World War II
fair seems like
reasonable they were right
they were right well
maybe they shouldn't have left because they're going to get murdered
probably no we don't know anything yet Taylor don't ruin it
But also, I don't think they were, I think they were probably correct about that's like you.
Fair.
So they wanted to live a self-sustaining life away from the rest of the world.
And they thought to do it on this isolated, unenhabited island of Floriana.
Neither of them had ever visited Floriana.
But the island was well documented by pirates, whalers, Charles Darwin, and different navies around the world that were kind of used as a waypoint.
So.
so funny. Well, the pirate said it was okay.
Well, there's a reason
for this. So
if you wanted to get away
from everything, this is a great place to go because
it was uninhabited. It had
accessible fresh water. The climate
was great and very
conducive to growing plants.
The environment was green. It was lush.
There was a ton of wildlife around. It was wildlife
that wasn't going to kill you too, which was like also
a huge. So it was actually a really good
spot to do this in.
So in 1920,
as Hitler's rising in Germany,
Friedrich and Dory,
they left their home in Germany
and made their way to Floriana
to establish a home son on the island.
They built a home, they planted vegetables,
they raised chickens.
They would eventually become known to the general public,
and the reason for this was that
whalers and other travelers to Floriana
had established kind of like a DIY post office
on the island where people could just throw mail in a barrel
on the north side of the island.
and anybody who was passing through
who was stopping there could stop
sift through the letters see what was going
the direction they were going and they would just take the mail
and deliver it was wild that anything
got delivered
it worked
it actually worked really well
yeah they say that and Moby Dick too
they're just like you just like give letters to
every ship you can find and like hope that something gets it to
your family
yeah okay
what else you're going to do
so
again this ended up working
pretty well
because people would stop by
they would meet the two
they would give them supplies
and then these actions
of these people kind of stopping by
as a waypoint on this island
kind of turned
Friedrich and Dory
into like international celebrities
in 1932
motivated by the fact that the Nazis
had now won 37% of the
votes in the Reichstag
and inspired by media reports
about Dori and Friedrich
the Whitmer family who was
a husband and wife and their one son
decided to, you know what? We're going to
uproot ourselves as well and
go live on this island too with these guys.
And they said to set out. Yes.
Yes, it's literally the next point.
I'd be mad if someone built a house in the lot next to mine.
Yeah, 100%.
One of the comments, so
you're right, these two
groups of settlers didn't like each other, which I'm
going to go into here in a second. But one of the
comments I read about this whole issue
was
imagine
sorry it was something along lines
of the fact that these people
got into like a massive dispute
in a fight with each other
while settled on isolated
island that was totally
uninhabited is the most German thing in the world
it sounds right
it's also just like super inevitable
like the fuck you can't just move there
someone already lives there
so as we're kind of
alluding to like the original
two settlers obviously disliked that this family,
the Whitmer family were setting up shop
there. They basically told him, go on the
other side of the island, just leave us
alone, get away from us, we never want to see you.
And they agreed.
They went to the other side of the island.
And despite
tension between the two groups,
they were mostly respectful and just kept
themselves and just gave each other
kind of a wide, wide berth on this.
How much is between them?
I don't know.
yeah i don't know eventually margaret whitmer the wife gave birth to a son named ralph in a cave
that they had been occupying on the island so now it's two groups and six people on island by the way
they tried to get dr friedrich to help with the earth she was four months pregnant when they
moved this island can you imagine juan coming to you when you're like three and a half months
pregnant and being like let's give up everything and go to this island
no you imagine being like why don't you have your baby in this cave first one that's one part
point also like I'd be so mad also the people came with a baby and I love babies but I'd be like
no I sure your sentiment yeah I sure your sentiment yeah so they actually asked the doctor
the only doctor well sure he has to help did you help he has to help no you refuse he was like
just go get birth on your own yeah he was like I mean he can't have um
Oh, okay.
I mean, he literally left civilization and not work.
No, I know that.
And he showed up with a pregnant woman.
I mean, I'd be really mad.
Yeah, what are you going to do?
So there's a happy, there's a quiet but happy-ish tension that is going on to the island of this point.
But people are mostly just getting along with what's going on until 1933.
So this is four years after the original settlement, a year after the,
new settlement. A third group
of settlers arrived to the island.
This is where things go haywire.
So this is
a group of folks.
It's Elisa Weirborn
who arrived on the island
with her two lovers, a guy named
Rudolph Lorenz
and Robert Philipson, along
with an Ecuadorian servant named
Manuel Valdeviso.
So she was
the boss and she came with these
three guys basically.
Are they all German as well?
I'm going to get into that.
Does Germany own this island? Can you keep going?
No, no. Germany has no, no, there's no claim to this island.
Is Ecuador on the island?
Ecuador on the island now, but back then, no country laid claim or ownership of this island.
Okay. Thank you.
So this group really wasn't like the others.
So first off, I called her Elisa We'reborn.
That's actually not what she went by.
She went by the name and title of Baroness Eloise, We're Born de Wagner Busquat.
And she posed as Austrian nobility.
She was not.
So terrible.
She's the one that came with the three dudes?
Yes.
Okay.
She would claim she came to Floriana with the ambition of developing it and building a large luxury resort.
On the island, which is the exact opposite of what these people wanted.
Yeah.
She was described as loud, brash, disrespectful, somebody that lacked all boundaries, and just generally, just the kind of neighbor you just don't want to have around.
Yeah.
One thing the other settlers had done was write about their day-to-day lives and then leave them in that barrel, I mentioned to you before, the little mini DIY post office on the north end of the island.
And those would get picked up and publish once they reach the mainland.
That's how they became like international celebrities, basically.
It's just through that what that means.
Over time, the other settlers noticed that publications
were being dropped off of them didn't include stories about their exploits
about their lives.
Instead, the article would be about empress of Floriana Island,
which was this Lisa woman that she had kind of styled herself.
Oh, my God, even more mad.
So she was taking their letters out
destroying them and then replacing
them with letters of her own saying that
she's the empress of the island.
So
Elise and Robert,
so Robert was one of the two lovers.
They would also take to
regularly beating
and just generally abusing Rudolph
on a semi fairly consistent basis.
He was like the third in the thruple.
They would do this to the point
where he would run away to the Whitmer residence
seeking refuge before eventually
being coaxed back to the group.
usually by Elisa.
Until on March 27th, 1934, so a little less than a year after they arrived to the island.
Robert and Elisa basically disappeared from the island.
And we literally to this day have no idea what happened to them.
Are they the original ones?
No.
The Elisa is the part of, is the ringleader of the third group.
Got it.
She's like the, the Baroness.
Yes, she's the Baroness.
Okay.
so Margaret Whitmer told people that Elisa had come to her that morning and told her that her and Robert would be catching a ship to Tahiti that day
but all their possessions were still on the island no ship was going to Tahiti that day and no ships had stopped on Floriana either dory who's part of the first settler group with Friedrich she would claim that on this day she heard screaming
somewhere on the island. Incessant screaming throughout the island.
The obvious question is, so where was Rudolph, the abused thruple in the group?
Right after this happened, Rudolph apparently caught a ride on a small boat operated by some
Norwegian fishermen, and they were headed to San Cristobel Island about 45 miles east of Floriana.
The idea was, the conjecture is that Rudolph was trying to island hop his way.
eventually back 600 miles over to Ecuador
to catch a fly and go back home.
That's the prevailing theory.
So he catches a ride with his fisherman
to an island that is directly east
45 miles of Floriana.
Instead, him and the fishermen
are found 100 miles north
of Cristobal Island
on Marchini Island
and a fisherman off the coast of Marchini Island
found essentially their mummified bodies.
Marchini wasn't habitable because there was no fresh water sources.
And so they literally died of dehydration and they just mummified after several months of being on the shoreline essentially.
Wow.
We don't know what happened to that servant, Manuel, that I mentioned earlier, they came over with the Baroness.
But seemingly, he was nowhere to be found.
It was assumed that he just caught a boat back to Ecuador because he was actually Ecuadorian and just lived his life.
And nobody knows what happened to that guy.
feels like you have questions.
No, I feel like good for him, even though he may be murdered them.
We don't know, yeah.
But they were like being really mean to him, right?
So we don't probably, I mean, they were being the shit out of Rudolph, so they're probably being mean to the servant.
And Rudolph was in the relationship.
So.
Yeah.
So after Elisa and Robert had disappeared and before the discovery of Rudolph's body, another mystery hit the settlers of this island.
Friedrich died of food poisoning
It was said that he had eaten
A very badly preserved chicken
Which kind of almost makes sense
But for the fact that Friedrich was a lifelong vegetarian
It didn't eat chicken
The chicken was there for the eggs
And feathers and things like that
It wasn't there for him to consume it
Secondly
Margaret Whitmer was there when he died with Dory
so Dory and Margaret were over him when he died
And she would recount that
This is her recollection of the events
When the moment he is life passed
The he that I'm going to refer to is Friedrich
And the she is Dory
This is all being reflected by Margaret
So this is the quote
Whenever she came near him
He would make feeble movements
As if to hit or kick her
He looked up at Dory
His eyes gleaming with hate
he wrote his last sentence quote
I curse you with my dying breath
end quote
That's a great
great last words
He goes his eyes filled with a wild feverish flame
Dory shrieked and drew back in horror
Then he collapsed soundlessly
falling back on the pillows
He was gone
That's Margaret's recollection of
The exact moment when he died in front of her and Dory
wow so eventually dory would go back to germany and claim that rudolph killed robert and elisa
and that the whitmer family helped him get rid of the bodies and also that
friedrich died of food poisoning that's her story and like in some ways it's kind of plausible
because it was well known that they would beat the hell out of rudolph and rudolph would only be able
to seek refuge with the whitmer family and like just go into their little cave and and they would
take him in. Right.
The Whitmer family would stay on the island and eventually build, you know, a Galapagos
island version of a hotel. I looked it up. It's like, it's basically like, like little houses
and cottages and stuff like that. People love that shit. Yeah. And so they would build that.
They would cater to tourism. Margaret would claim that the story about them going to Tahiti was true.
So she stuck with, hey, they left for Tahiti. We have no idea what happened. And also that
Dory killed Friedrich
apparently to this day
if you look on trip advisor for Floriana
Island the winter family
like their descendants they still like
own the lodges and the
they own the tourism industry on this island
like they have boats they have shit like they do
all all kinds of stuff scuba diving
trips all that kind of stuff with tourists
here
Dory would die
I think it was 1945
and that's that's it like there's nobody
knows
nobody knows
why Rudolph ended up
on this island completely out of the way of where this fisherman was supposed to be going.
Nobody knows really the last whereabouts of Manuel, the man-servant.
Nobody has any idea where Robert or Elisa are.
Their bodies were never found.
And nobody knows if Redrook was killed or died of food poisoning.
She's like, they're all gone.
Nobody knows.
You like the lesson here is don't be annoying.
Yeah.
Yeah, they would have been fine.
If that woman hadn't shown up, they would have been fine.
Everybody would just kind of live the quiet piece, but.
Or actually, the lesson here, Taylor, is like, when you're doing cool shit, don't tell people you're doing cool shit.
Yeah, that really.
Somebody will always want to try and come over and try to get a piece of it and fuck it up.
That's 100%.
Like, don't tell people what you're doing.
People are going to try to come and be like, oh, I could just imagine her coming off that,
of a boat being like oh it's so quiet here but like yelling it you know
I'd be like fuck so one story that they told so this is like the this is the 1930s right
modesty changes over time and the way they would describe elisa was she would be out like
in the cove where ships were passing like almost naked with a whip and firing guns in the
air for like the sailors to look at her she doesn't know so annoying meanwhile this woman's given birth
in a cave next to you yeah one of the the other two they had to pull their own teeth out of
their mouths because they had no health care for for dentistry and built their own metal teeth
that they shared the whatever it is what do you call those the fake teeth dentures they made
metal dentures they had to say meanwhile this girl just like naked running around shooting
guns in the air and it's like yeah that that's fun for like a night and then after like the second
third fourth fifth night like I I'm trying to take care of my hands also there's another
story I read that was really interesting which was um somebody had recounted that the uh Friedrich
and Dory Settlers they had a donkey and what happened was that Robert let the donkey out in
the middle of the night and like kind of ushered him over to where like the Whitber family was
sleeping and he like stomped their vegetation or did something like he messed some stuff up
the father hinds whitmer shot the donkey in the head and killed it and it was because he was like
oh it must be like feral like why is it doing this they didn't know like this guy like
riled it up and did whatever like that kind of people just needed like great other people you know
what I mean.
Wow.
Isn't that fun?
It's so fun.
So the movie, the documentary that's on Netflix is called the Galapagos
Affair Satan in the Garden of Eden, which is like a super fun title.
And apparently a movie just came out like a year ago or like it just is finishing
production or something.
I don't know anything about it.
I didn't even watch the trailer for that.
But I think it's called Eden.
I think the movie is literally just called Eden Hall
and they look for it.
That's hilarious and so
I see it
Eden.
Oh no, it says 2024
so like a little judgment.
Yeah.
I don't even know if it's been released yet.
Jew Laws in it.
Oh, wait, okay.
So the film is.
Inna da Armist, Sydney, Sweeney.
Well, that's fun.
It's releasing
last week.
Two weeks of him?
No, it says I've premiered
September
Two weeks ago
Yeah
Yeah, I've premiered but it hasn't been released yet
That's fun
That's good timing
Yeah
It's hilarious
Yeah
Yeah, it's a ball
So what I gather is that this Eden film
That's about to be released
It is
It's like a fictionalization or something
It's like a dramatization
Yeah, you could make like a horror movie
you know a horror movie yeah yeah like a lot of their stuff nobody knows because the only thing we know about it
is what the two survivors tell us which is dory margaret and then it's the letters that were
conveyed again half those to your point teller half those are probably lost have those
like who even knows what happened really like all you're getting is like you're piecing together
a story with like totally inaccurate and incomplete information um but it's so fun
it's so fun like i can't like i i kind of want to do this i'm kind of understand how big it is
and i can't really understand it's like 15 kilometers across and i have no idea i want
a kilometer is how many kilometers it's 15 kilometers 15 miles nine miles across
so you could be like pretty far away from each other
yeah i mean doing nine miles like i mean
i've done that on hikes before but like i'm i planned for it and like you know
like you're not going to do that like leisurely like nobody's leisurely taking a nine
mile stroll no no um well but but yeah so very fun it had that and you look at these
pictures of the island and it is
I mean
it just looks like paradise. Yeah like it literally
I just like there's paradise. I mean
yes and also
I fit there's like a lot of mosquitoes there.
I do feel like you definitely need a doctor.
So if you're going to do this, you should bring your friend who's a doctor.
I just I think that is important.
Taylor, I don't think there could be mosquitoes there.
Could there?
We watched the deadliest animals.
South America
show
like 72 deadliest animals
anyway
the deadliest is always
like a fucking spider
or mosquito
no because
because the thing is
mosquitoes
need mammals
to
to survive
and what I can tell
the only animals
that are on the island
are giant Galapagos
tortoises
all kinds of different
marine iguanas
I still think
there are mosquitoes
let's see
I just think you should bring a doctor if you're going to do it
basically is my big thing
yeah it's free mosquitoes
yeah there's the mosquitoes
okay well there's definitely spiders
you're trying to find any reason not to move here
I just feel like it's all fun in games
until you're making your own teeth
yeah that seemed like an extreme move i feel like i'd rather have rotted teeth than to pull my teeth
out manually no i don't i just feel like yeah man i don't know i think it's better to get it out
you can have to get it out but that sucks yes it's a hard way to live in um
that would be with tom hanks for you're on the island and he has to get the tooth out with the
i see you know did he did he throw a rock he tied his tooth to a rock and then through the rock
off a ledge, is that what happened?
No, he used an ice skate because he had an ice geek
from the FedEx packages.
But you have to get it out because two things are like
the worst. You can't do anything.
Yeah, you're right. You're right.
It's two than back pain.
Those are the two that kill you.
But anyways, that's the, so if anybody
wants to find it, so there is a documentary.
It's actually, again, I didn't watch a lot of it,
I think I've seen it.
Kate Blanchett is like a narrator of it.
It's like a well, it seems like it must be a well-done documentary
and it's on YouTube.
It's totally free.
And just Google on YouTube, YouTube, the Galapagos Affair.
And it'll come up.
I'm turning on the, oh, that's stupid.
There's a trailer, but it's like not a real trailer.
It's a concept trailer.
It's dumb.
Who cares?
already fair said Eden
fun
that sounds like a fun movie I'll watch it
yeah yeah
that's all I got today
cool
what do you got
um
oh this is an amazing
wait let me show you this image from the movie
can I share my screen with you
how do that
where is it
chat chair screen
um
this picture of Anna Darmus as the Duchess
as the Duchess I assume
just like two guys holding her
if she gets on to the beach
that is probably exactly how it was
that's so funny
I love it
I assume the guy in white is Rudolph
because if you look at the real pictures
Rudolph looks like someone
that is given wedgies
in real life
oh even this picture Drew Law
definitely has these metal teeth
oh I see them
all right
Well, that's exciting. That'll be fun.
Cool. Well, thank you. That was fun.
My story that I will tell you in our next episode,
I found because what they wanted to tell you is our friend Kiara,
who is a long-time listener,
found a book in her little free library, like in her neighborhood
that was like greatest disasters in history.
And she took a picture of the table of contents and sent it to me,
which was very nice and fun.
Thank you.
So my story that I will tell is from that table of contents.
And there's some other ones in there, too.
sweet
yeah um
anything else before we wrap up
um
oh no
I just I just also was reading
I'm just reading this Reddit page about this movie
Eden and I just read the sentence
um
just that their characters pull out all of their teeth
yeah I kind of left that for the end
um but that was a big
I think that might be worse than giving birth
and I don't know I just
I feel bad saying that but I think it might be worse
I don't see the metal teeth
I'll take your word for it
Because you like recover from
Give me breath
Anyway thank you everyone

If you see Eden or the
Galapagos affair

There's no way this guy made his teeth
Looked the way Jude ball
He didn't indent the metal
And like make them look like real teeth
this is another thing where you're like
it's scarier
it's how shiny he is
everyone must have smelled so bad
just do the real story
it's freakier to do the real story than a lie
I don't know you don't know what his teeth look like
do you?
Yeah it's true it's true
it wasn't going to be good
no
no
anyways
