Starting point is 00:00:00 Music Drinnies, the podcast from the comfort zone. Music Julia, now we listen very closely. Do you hear that? Yes, I hear. Nothing. It's absolute silence. On the 11th of November. We don't hear anything from all that are happening in the city of Cologne. We're recording the episode on the 11th of November.
Starting point is 00:00:28 And that means that tomorrow, when the episode is out, your book will be out on the 12th of November. Yes. Because I have a big calendar with the Edding and the Stabilo pen. Is it called Stabilo in German? No, Stabilo. Stabilo. Stabilo, that's the best thing, because I've always had Stabilo pens. And then the Stabilos in a can, in the form of a big Stabilo.
Starting point is 00:00:50 How brilliant is that? 11 Stabilos in one big Stabilo. We only had the better-earning kids, Stabilos. I stole them. And they were wondering where they were. I was only allowed to use them privately, never at school, because otherwise I'd fly up when I'd stolen them. And then suddenly, oh, I was only allowed to use them privately. Never in school, because otherwise you'd be in trouble if I stole them from you. And then suddenly, oh, I have a brown and a pink,
Starting point is 00:01:10 but no green for example. I think when you have parents who work full time and are never there and you're always alone at home, then you get something like that. You know, bad conscience, stability. To calm down, to calm down the kids. Yes, come on, we go to Staples and you can get something for them. So in your case, parents hardly the kids. Yeah, come on, we're going to Staples and you can call us. So in your case, parents come to you, but for that, awesome pens.
Starting point is 00:01:30 Awesome pens, which I lost on day one, immediately. Or left the cap open, dried out. And then what I did was cut off the tip with scissors in front of it. So that something comes out of it, crazy. But you didn't write your book with Stabilo. I didn't write it with Stabilo. You wrote it on a computer. I wrote it on a computer, at least I tried.
Starting point is 00:01:49 Yes, a funny book was the goal. Wasn't that the work title? It was the work title. Until the end, I always sent the document a funny book to my readers. I think it's funny. I would say you've reached the goal. If I don't think it's funny, I say humor you've reached your goal. If you don't think it's funny, I'd say humor is a matter of taste.
Starting point is 00:02:07 Keep going. There are many other books. Yes, definitely. Today it's here. And guys, it's already in many, many stores. Go to the book store and see if it's already there. I'm looking forward to it. And you can also link me. And that's what my day will look like when I see that somewhere in Hückelhoven in the book store, my book, next to Sebastian Fidzeck
Starting point is 00:02:27 and Harpe Kerkling, you can actually become even more beautiful. What the people didn't see now is that I stretched my fist to the sky when you said Hückelhoven. Really. It came out of me. I would really be interested if we heard it in Hückelhoven. Yes, we did. People corrected me that you pronounce it differently.
Starting point is 00:02:44 I didn't say it like that. You have to slurp it more. Hückelhoven. Yeah, we did! We also corrected myself by saying it differently. I didn't say it like that. You have to... Hückelhoven! I don't know. I say it like that, how it comes out of me, because I wear Hückelhoven, Iserlohn, Hanover and Kreisheim
Starting point is 00:02:54 deep in my heart. I think it's crazy that you put Hanover on the same level with these cities. The cities can't do anything for it. I was in none of these cities. I did get on Hanover. Of course. You anything for it. I was in none of these cities. I did get into Hanover once.
Starting point is 00:03:06 You were celebrating, yes. You got around there. But I have no connection to all of them. They are just names that I once picked up in a weather report somewhere. And I happened to drop here. I have something against nobody in these cities. I don't know anyone from these cities. They are certainly wonderful. Are you distancing yourself from the cities?
Starting point is 00:03:23 No, I just don't want to create any connections, closer connections. Even if Hüggelhofen should be held accountable, I can't stand for it for free. Although I would also like to be not being invited as an expert somewhere. I noticed that people are being introduced to talk shows or reports as experts.
Starting point is 00:03:41 For example, I don't know. Tree expert, sound record expert. I would rather be called an enthusiast. For example, Hüglhofen enthusiast. Because I'm not necessarily an expert, but I'm very enthusiastic about the topic. Hüglhofen enthusiast Christaumann. I've also seen on TV when it's about the mushrooms,
Starting point is 00:03:57 when people go back into the mushrooms and eat poisonous mushrooms and die from it. Yes, it's very dangerous. That's really no joke. It's very dangerous. Then there are always specialists. And I saw a mushroom consultant and die from it. Yeah, it's very dangerous. It's really not a joke. It's very dangerous. I know. Then there are always experts. And I saw a mushroom consultant.
Starting point is 00:04:10 So that's a job. Yes. It's a professional name, she's a mushroom consultant. Didn't you tell me that before? Something rings in my head. I posted it on Instagram. The picture of her, because she has a hairstyle that looked like a mushroom. I thought that was very funny.
Starting point is 00:04:23 Is knocking in your book about it? If I don't go on vacation, does someone else do it? Is it about mushrooms? Knock off? I can't say it. On the edge, surely. Good, we've cleared that up. We know more. I'd like to thank you and you,
Starting point is 00:04:36 the people who were in our live performances last week in Berlin, Hamburg and Cologne. In the chamber music hall in Berlin, in the Elbphilharmonie in Hamburg and in the Kölner Philharmonie. That was very nice. The people were, as far as I can tell from the stage, very nice. I'd like to say, not only what I've heard from the stage, but also the feedback we got afterwards,
Starting point is 00:04:59 from employees of our team, from friends of ours who were there. People who heard that in the foyer, before and after the performance, everyone said, the people are highly responsible, they are friendly, they give each other attention, nobody is somehow stupid. In the sitting area situation, in the chamber music hall there were probably misunderstandings,
Starting point is 00:05:20 who sits where, on the emporium, there was a back and forth with the seats, nobody was weird. On the emporium? In the lounge? In the lounge? Yes, all the way up under the ceiling. And everyone helped each other. One person dropped money, jumped straight into the 10, said, did someone lose coins? 10 people helped to look.
Starting point is 00:05:38 My heart is racing. No, I have to say, if I lose money in public space and I get the stuff down, nobody will react. Last time, you know, we were at a restaurant, then we saw neighbors walking out, in front of us, and we had to say hello to them, because it would have been awkward to walk past them. Then I took out my wallet in a jump action
Starting point is 00:06:01 and somehow played around. You wanted to give me 10 euros? You're buying something nice. I was so tense, you know, that you just hold something in your hands and all my 1000 cards fell out. The 1000 prepaid credit cards. And I didn't make it. I thought only one would have fallen out.
Starting point is 00:06:18 My Metro card from New York, which I kept in warm memory of our vacation last last and this year. Then I put them in, got out and then suddenly Shepards behind me, the door is opened, a young waitress runs after me and says, my dear sir, my dear sir, you have all the cards. Sir, your metro card. I lost all the cards, but I didn't notice it first.
Starting point is 00:06:43 It was so embarrassing. And then she said, I should come in and look around again. So I'm on all fours under the table. You ordered Schnitzel again, right? Yes, good. Let's do that. Well, what I wanted to say, our community is just amazing. Now you've also noticed it live on site. These are just warm, warm, pleasant, decent people.
Starting point is 00:07:00 Yes, and I didn't just hear that from the people who traveled with us, but also from the people who worked there. Yes. So technicians on site who said, it's probably the nicest audience we've had here. And I think to myself, what else do they have to do with it? The chamber music hall in the Philharmonie in Cologne, in Berlin, in Hamburg.
Starting point is 00:07:18 With a devil's violin. And they also said it's the most punctual audience at all times. So at 8 o'clock someone asked how many people were there and the person said all of them. All of them were there, all of them were sitting, all of them were there, they were all there before. We have to use this moment because we couldn't do it personally, but people brought things that were left behind. Sounds weird.
Starting point is 00:07:45 Yeah, sounds weird. It's not about apples, it's about snacks. Snacks that have crossed the borders of the country, were brought from Switzerland to Germany. People travelled 500 kilometres to see us live, which is just insane. And right after the performance, I ate an alpine herb ice cream. I felt alive again.
Starting point is 00:08:04 I was so happy with the herb ice cream. And I have to say, I want to thank Alma especially, Alma is 12 and she let us deliver a letter in Cologne. I was so happy about that, Alma. I read it, I kept it, I kept it here, this is my sanctuary, I keep it, I won't throw it away. It has a special place in my folder, but in a really good folder. There are these clear-cut folders, they're so cheap.
Starting point is 00:08:27 They're easily crumpled away. But then there are those that are a little thicker, which always had the rich kids, where they had their dill leaves in them. And I've now saved the letter from Alma, and it's being preserved. And I'm curious how many decades it will survive. Alma, thank you for your letter.
Starting point is 00:08:43 It was a lot of fun, these live performances. The people were nice, the staff were nice, I'm curious how many decades he will survive. Alma, thank you for your letter. I had a lot of fun with this live performance. The people were nice. The employees were happy. Alpenkräuter, ice cream, baked bread. What more do you want? What more do you want? But now the truce is over again and now it's back to Malochen, Chris.
Starting point is 00:09:00 I'm happy too. Now we're back here in Malochen. We have our hourly wage, our Susanne-Klatten hourly wage of 1.1 million euros per hour, which we want to reach here. Per hour. Per hour, well noted. And that's why I have to start rambling again. Yes.
Starting point is 00:09:17 Something was sent in, an introvert tip. I have to say, the introvert tip was played on Instagram. The probability that I see it there is about 0.1%. In this case it was luck. So please don't send it to Instagram, but send it to info at drenys.de. There we can then, with the relevant introvert tip, we can then search exactly for what we are looking for.
Starting point is 00:09:37 And therefore please always by mail. Yes, it just disappears on Instagram. That's like Russian roulette, the coincidence, whether you survive or not. No, that's a bit cynical, but you just can't find anything. And you can't look for anything. Yes, but in this case I found it and it's from Annie. And that's why I want to ask you, Chris, to shoot the bird.
Starting point is 00:09:55 Introvert Tip Introvert Tip is the section where there are tips. Where questions are not asked and answered. Instead, without even asking questions, there are direct tips. Direct answers without even asking questions. First of all, I have to say I'm glad to be back in the room. Here I feel at home, here I know,
Starting point is 00:10:19 here I can still hear my stinking bug. And that gives me a good feeling at the end of the day. There are definitely stinking bugs in the room. And you mean you. Hello? at the end of the day. There are definitely stink bugs in the room. And you mean you. Hello? Are you okay? Small insult. You just called me a stink bug. And for the laughter I do everything, I take any sacrifice in my head.
Starting point is 00:10:34 So, let's continue with the intro tip from Anni. Anni wrote, Dear Julia, dear Chris, In the last week my boyfriend and I made a practical discovery. We visited a friend of my boyfriend's for coffee and cake. Before we went there, we were thinking about what our schedule would look like and when we should be back on the way home. According to the time window, we booked a car sharing car.
Starting point is 00:10:56 When our time window was about to close, we could just say that we have to drive back with the car now, because it would be much more expensive than we had planned. That's true. You can drive the trick to the top and call it time-lapse or price, or even say that you rented a car sharing car, even though you're there with the train. We'll do that more often now.
Starting point is 00:11:16 Practical. Greetings, Anni. What I like is that you can just lie. Even if you don't have a driver's license, even if you're only 12 and you're not even entitled to drive a car, you can say, my car sharing is going down, I have to go, otherwise it would cost twice as much. But I don't think it's about these free-floating car sharing cars that you can just put somewhere and then reserve for a while. I think it's about those that are so stationary, you have to enter in the beginning how long it will take.
Starting point is 00:11:41 Good introvert tip, because there's always the problem with meetings, how long will it take? What's the half-time here, what do I have to adjust to? Is that open-end? And for me as a trainee, it's difficult to handle the situation. Very good tip. Totally good tip. And it's also kind of comforting to know, especially in a coffee and cake situation,
Starting point is 00:11:59 when you have a very clear window of time and know, so in an hour and a half, I'm away from the field again. Yes, coffee and cake, yes, but also please a side-limited window so that you know when I have to repeat the last line. The so-called cake window. And that would be good, too, to simply be able to estimate in your head how many pieces of Russian soup I can even get in this window. You You can already think about that beforehand. We're here for two and a half hours, that makes two pieces of beanstalk, three pieces of cheesecake, one piece of Russian soup cake and three and a half cups of tea.
Starting point is 00:12:35 You know? In between, a large glass, 0.5 glasses of milk, because of the soda burning, if you can drive that back a bit, but then directly control it with coffee again. Yes! The mixture makes it difficult. The mixture makes it difficult. if you can drive back a little bit. But then directly again with coffee against the steering wheel. The mixture does it, Julia. But very good. So I like that you can always go, because you can look at the clock in shock and say,
Starting point is 00:12:54 oh, my car sharing is running out, I have to go out. It's about the political situation in the USA right now. That's getting too hectic with my one uncle, who brings his opinion to the table. I have to bring my car sharing car back. Goodbye, goodbye, it was very well-worn. It was very well-worn, bye. And I imagine that you're looking at the clock.
Starting point is 00:13:15 You're really doing the clock, the clock gestures, rolling your arm back, stretching it back, stands up in the meantime. And everything we've said now, oh, my car sharing is running out, it was very car is running out, it's very swollen, it's very tasty, that this already happens when you put on your jacket and go to the exit. That's what you say, it's swollen, it's tasty, the Russian soup cake was great,
Starting point is 00:13:35 Marmorkuchen not dry, slag sandwich perfect, coffee right temperature, room temperature good, here's my jacket and bye, door closed, departure. Shut up, party! Basically, you have to pull through so nobody can just crawl in and say, if I give you the 20 euros if you pull over the cash register,
Starting point is 00:13:54 stay a little longer. Don't give it a chance. I've already pulled off the winter jacket with one arm. I'm not even pulling off the jacket. Fourth party, there you pull me, now it's almost time again, Christmas Eve. Also a good trick for Christmas Eve. First of all, also the question why you don't drink anything.
Starting point is 00:14:14 I can say I'm there with my car and later I put it on, oh my car-shaving runs off, after half an hour I have to get out again. Oh, I'd like to take a piece of cake with me. What, half an hour on the company party? That's too short? Oh, I'll do that next year, but I'll do it differently. Well, you can see me at company parties with the jacket.
Starting point is 00:14:34 I don't even take it off. By the way, I'd like to add one thing to our live show. In Cologne, I thanked a lot of people, because the performance took place at the exact time when the federal government dissolved. But there was no reception in the Philharmonie. That means nobody got an e-mail, nobody knew what was happening during our performance. And we came from the stage and our tour manager said, we don't have a federal government anymore.
Starting point is 00:14:59 And I said, when are you going on tour? And the people didn't notice until they left the building. Well, the Philharmonie is literally in the basement. It's underground and above it, the space has to be closed because if people walk over it, you can hear it in the Philharmonie. So, unpleasant. The whole city of Cologne has to make a mess when we're in the Philharmonie.
Starting point is 00:15:19 I could swear I heard one or two people who walked over it during the performance. I heard one or two people walking by. Yeah. I heard them all. But yeah, I'm very grateful for the car sharing intro. I would have liked... I think it was two days after we came back from the live shows. You were already working again. And I slept out my social card at home. I put on my comfortable jogging pants.
Starting point is 00:15:45 I really wanted people to do would turn around our house. Yeah. You said, Chris, there are books coming out today, and you wanted to send them away on the weekend. Yes. And that means I could only play Planet Coaster with one ear all day. I had one headphone away from the ear, and I knew that if it rang, I have to get down to the door of the house,
Starting point is 00:16:07 get out of the apartment, down the stairs, so that I can really take these books and not give them away. Because that would be bad for you. I would like to add that I didn't buy my own book myself, because you get 30 free copies from the publisher. These are arrived. Of course. And so I was really on hot, on glowing coals and at some point at 7 p.m. Of course. And I was really on hot coals, and at around 7 p.m. it rang, I was tuned down, headphones half-opened,
Starting point is 00:16:32 Pentecostal still on in the background. I was building a big parking lot, but then it wasn't the parking boats, but four children. The two oldest were maybe 14, 15, 16. What? There were two younger ones. Of course, the smaller ones maybe 14, 15, 16. What? No more children? Of course. The smaller ones were 7, 8. And then they had the lantern in their hands and started singing.
Starting point is 00:16:52 Without hello and how are you? And then we sang directly. And then I was like, hm. There were 16-year-olds with a lantern in their hands? Yes. And I've never experienced that. I don't know what's going on. It rotted in my head. Is this still Halloween? Ja, und ich hab das noch nie erlebt, ich weiß nicht, was da genau los ist. In meinem Kopf hat's gerattert. Ist das jetzt grad noch irgendwie Halloween?
Starting point is 00:17:08 Kommen die jetzt, sind Kinder an der Tür, die wollen jetzt was? Die Mechanik ist mir schon bekannt. Man singt und bekommt dann was. Nur, was bekommen sie? Die haben dann gesungen, es war nicht sehr schön gesungen auch. Es war etwas motivationslos. Ich sag mal so, sie würden bei mir nicht in Recall kommen. Aber was war das für ein Song? Was haben sie denn gesungen? Hab nicht hingehört. Ach so. I'm a little bit unmotivated. I'll put it this way, you wouldn't be in my recall. But what was that song? What did you sing?
Starting point is 00:17:26 I didn't listen to it. I didn't listen to it. I only saw two adults in the back in the dark. They want me to perform well. So I'm rotating. I've been living in Germany for a few years. But I've never had children standing in front of the door and singing with a lantern. I couldn't arrange the need.
Starting point is 00:17:45 I don't know, are you the star singer now or what? Exactly, I thought about it. Star singer, Halloween or does it have something to do with St. Martin? Where I don't know what it is, you celebrate where I come from. So I didn't know what kind of reaction they were hoping for from me. Do I have to donate money? Is it for the church? Is it private money? In Switzerland, the tour club was like that. Do they want to finance a party tent for a tour?
Starting point is 00:18:12 I didn't know that. I also think that needs to be communicated more transparently. The union has to take action. You have to organize yourself. I think that everyone who wants to sell something has to communicate that he wants to sell something. Or that he wants something from you. Then you have to say very clearly, here we are this and that, we come here and there, we do this and that and we want this and that for it.
Starting point is 00:18:33 It's enough if you bring a poster with you where it says it. Right, a certificate, like the ones people in the train, in the KVB, check where it's hanging on the belt, you know, with a clip. A stardom singer badge. So here, very clear words of praise to St. Martin's Inns and also to the stardom singer association. Here we have to talk about the tariff. New tariff negotiations. What irritated me, obviously they sang, they had a lantern. If they had been stardom singers, they would have been disguised.
Starting point is 00:19:02 Like the three guys, the three kings of Jesus. What? They weren't even dressed. They had normal parkas, anoraks, windbreaker jackets on. Then it was just a lantern march. Yes, they were star singers in civilian clothes. Or I don't know. Star singer AD. Stichprobenkontrolle. Or what. Then they finished singing, didn't take long, half a minute, didn't listen to it.
Starting point is 00:19:24 And then I reacted the way I didn't take long, half a minute, didn't listen to it, and then I reacted the way I didn't want it to. It just came out of me and without thanking me or asking for kind words, I just said, you want sweets, right? Or what do you want? Without shit. You wanted it on your mouth? That's exactly how I asked and I already noticed
Starting point is 00:19:40 when I asked, oh, that wasn't the right tone. And then the oldest of the singers said, best case, yes. So really pissed off by me. And I didn't even know... Best case, yes. What kind of a sexy answer is that? I said, come on, it's good, I understand,
Starting point is 00:20:00 you're not in the mood, you're not in the mood for me. I'm over-exaggerated here. I said, I'll see what we have there. And then you had Halloween snacks for the week before. Yes, sure. I bought Maui. The whole Haribo thing and no child has ringed. And I had that, I put them there and then they went without saying thank you. And I can't really estimate what happened until now.
Starting point is 00:20:27 I'll google it right away, what exactly is needed. You don't have to send me now, I'm not really interested. I just hope that they won't come next year and are too scared. So what is the learning? From Halloween, the bells are ringing, and also the week after that, because of St. Martin, Laterna, everything comes at once. There are winter tires, the ruleslingelstum, and the week after that, because of Saint Martin, Laterna, everything comes together. There are winter tires, in cars, that regulate from October to Easter. And that's how you can do the Klingelstum.
Starting point is 00:20:53 Children are actually the winter tires. No! No! Under the people. I didn't say that. From October to Easter, Klingelstum. And when they haben, ja, Süßigkeit im besten Fall, wollen wir, muss ich hoch in die Wohnung.
Starting point is 00:21:09 Ich hab mir wirklich überlegt, auf den Weg hoch soll ich einfach nicht mehr zurückkommen. Dass sie einfach da unten versauern lassen. Am langen Arm aushungern lassen. Ja. Es gibt ja so paar Themen, da bin ich heikel. Advertisement. This podcast is financed by advertising. There are a few topics that make me feel awkward. Head-to-head relationships, for example. I prefer to wash my face a little more often than necessary. And tooth care.
Starting point is 00:21:32 Teeth are basically the head-to-head relationship of the mouth. And there is an electric toothbrush. They remove 20 times more plaque compared to hand-tooth brushes. 20 times more. The Philips Sonicare Diamond Clean Smart 9400. We've been using both for a little over a month now. And I can say with the best of my heart, it's awesome. The teeth are really clean afterwards.
Starting point is 00:21:56 You save yourself the exhausting scrubbing movement with your arm. It does the toothbrushes all by itself. It's a so-called dream. The battery lasts up to two weeks. and it's not only a travel case, but also a charger for home. The toothbrush is in there and is charged. I'll tell you how it is. The Philips Sonicare Diamond Clean Smart 9400
Starting point is 00:22:14 was not without reason well rated by Stiftung Warentest with 1.9. There are also different cleaning programs and intensities. This makes the whole a completely individual cleaning experience. And the emphasis is on experience. I use the app, which I could simply connect to my toothbrush
Starting point is 00:22:32 and then it shows me where exactly I haven't cleaned so thoroughly yet and where I have to go again. Cleaning your teeth is a real happening now. If you want to try it out, we have a code for you now. With Sony Care Driny 10, all in one, you save 10% on the Philips Sony Care Diamond Clean products. All information and the link can be found in the show notes. The code is valid until November 22, 2024. Advertising end.
Starting point is 00:23:01 End. But we can briefly talk about why you're playing Planet Coaster. I'd like to share that with people, how this happened. And Chris discovered amusement parks for them. No! I have to go on. It was the weekend before our tour started. We were both very excited. The first time on tour, blah blah, we didn't know what was coming.
Starting point is 00:23:26 Excitement, nervousness. It's not necessarily a tour, there are three performances. There are three performances, for me it was a tour. We drove through all of Germany. Yes, of course. It was a very short tour, we were still very excited and that's why we had a little collar at home and I said, so, now I did it like this this, clapped my hands and said,
Starting point is 00:23:45 so crazy, now it's over, it's over. We're gonna turn off the head, we're gonna do something fun. And I'm getting in the car with you and then we're off to Phantasialand. That's not far, it's in Brühl, it's near Cologne. It's basically next door.
Starting point is 00:24:03 And I said, now's go to Fantasyland. You've never been to Fantasyland. I was once in Fantasyland as a child. I haven't been to the amusement park in 15 years. You've never been to an amusement park in your whole life. No. I used to fuck off as a child when they were on summer holidays or Easter holidays. That's one thing.
Starting point is 00:24:19 They were on Easter in the Europa-Park and then measured each other. Are you already on the Silver Star? Have you been on the Silver Star? You belong to Marco, you're still too young for the Silver Star. You've never been on the Silver Star? You belong to Marco. That already pissed me off back then. It was always too wild for me.
Starting point is 00:24:34 I was on the Silver Star too. Back then I could still start the roller coaster, but more on that later. That was at the Europa-Park? That was at the Europa-Park. Now we were in the Phantasialand, it's a little smaller, but very elaborate.
Starting point is 00:24:48 And we wanted to see it. We didn't know what to do there, because we're not the most action-friendly person. I would like to point out very carefully. I get very bad very quickly with everything that turns and is upside down. And you are very afraid of really fast things, even though you don't know what's going to happen.
Starting point is 00:25:08 Yeah, fear of heights. Fear of heights comes with it. Both are irrational. Yeah. The fear is standing in my way. How do you say it? It's shooting through my body as soon as I'm up there or when it gets really fast. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:23 I can also say that everything here is taken away from TÃœV Rheinland, 1000 times secured, nothing can happen here, that's no use. And for me it's exactly the opposite, I have zero fear of it, I trust these things 1000% in Germany. Because really, TÃœV and so on, I just trust TÃœV. I have zero concerns. Me too. That's exactly the thing, I trust TÃœV, there There's nothing better, nothing better than TÃœV in Germany.
Starting point is 00:25:48 But it's still this fear of the rest, this irrational fear. Maybe it'll still kick me out of the curve. I'm not afraid of it. I even have a little hope that I'll be kicked out. But what's really bad is that it gets so bad for me. It just gets so bad for me. And then the day has gone. And if it's really bad for you, then you can't do anything anymore.
Starting point is 00:26:06 Perfect starting requirement for us at the Fantasia. And then you have to say, there are some really crazy roller coasters in the Fantasia. It's a small park, but the roller coaster density is extremely high. And of course we said, we won't do that. We can't do that, I'm getting sick, you're scared to death. That's a duo, I don't know if that's so good on the rollercoaster. And that's why we started slowly, with a cap and carousel.
Starting point is 00:26:34 Turns out, that's also super high and we're super sick. So the day was set after that. You were scared, I was in front of you on the you and you were behind me. And suddenly the thing goes up and turns endlessly, a thousand times, really bad for me. I called back, Chris, how are you? And I just hear, okay. And then I knew it was over. The day is over.
Starting point is 00:26:57 Yes, but that also has to do with flight power. Yes. If you are bigger and heavier, that's something else than weighing 12.5 and 40 kilos. Yeah, and I'll put it this way, I'm very big and very heavy, and it was really bad. So everything turned around, I had to sit down. But luckily it was after a while.
Starting point is 00:27:15 But you said, it's really hardcore. And that's why we made mouse and chocolate to calm down. Well, it wasn't hardcore. It was already hard. I just said, I don't have to do this every day. And I want to say that this is also a normal reaction, that you don't go to the train carousel every day, right? Sure, it would be really weird if you wanted that.
Starting point is 00:27:35 We then went to mouse and chocolate, and that's, you have to say, the best attraction in the Vantage. Then we both agreed on it. You just drive in a small car, drive from one LED wall to the next, and virtually shoot mice. That's all. I think it was a Beamer.
Starting point is 00:27:50 It's the well-known Beamer technology, as I knew it back then in the Schlossmuseum, where it was always too bright for the Beamer and you only saw half of it. Not with Mouse and Chocolate. Yes, with Mouse and Chocolate it's super chill. You just have to shoot a few mice and then you'll get a good score. That was a real high experience.
Starting point is 00:28:09 But then it went downhill. Then we had a flight to Mose chocolate and thought, this is so great, let's go on a roller coaster. No, no, no, no. You said, let's go on the Colorado, because it's not that bad. There's family fun, fun for the whole family. And it's not bad at all. Look, it's a train. It goes through, like, stables, through mines.
Starting point is 00:28:32 And there's a tumbling train. And I really... I knew that the roller coaster, I think the very first roller coaster ever, unfortunately, which has been in there for over 20 years. That's why I thought, come on, this is an evergreen. The others looked so brutal, with, you know, you're stuck on your whole body, and you're shot up in the catapult and stuff. And the Colorado is just a track where you sit down in the old school way
Starting point is 00:28:55 and then the lever goes down and you can sit in there completely normal. Exactly, you have a beam that goes half over your thighs. Theoretically, you could still stand up while eating. Yes, exactly. A relatively relaxed, relaxed story. You think nothing can go wrong here. Guys, boy was I wrong. We went in there.
Starting point is 00:29:12 The thing is going. I died. I felt so bad. It's such a hardcore roller coaster and it looks like nothing. It looks zero heavy from the outside. But it's just hell. You got yourself into a fight, Wendtessen. I got myself a cramp. The seats are so uncomfortable.
Starting point is 00:29:28 It hurts so much on the back, on the legs. It hurts so much, it's so really, really unergonomic. There was nothing padded back then. But I also have to say about the defense of Phantasialand, for roller coaster fans it's exactly the right thing, I think. It's the absolute dream for roller coaster fans. I'm not such a rollercoaster fan, that's why I liked Mousochocolate better.
Starting point is 00:29:50 And I'm like, when I noticed what was happening and what I was getting into, I had to laugh out of over-reaction. But I was really bad at it, because it was really, really, really fast and it was always going around the corners really well. And it totally overwhelmed me, and I laughed out of over-reaction. I screamed and, really, really fast and it was really great to drive around the corners. And it totally overwhelmed me and I laughed out of over-emotions. I screamed and laughed really loudly.
Starting point is 00:30:09 And at some point I just didn't hear anything from you anymore. Yes, because I knew now, I just had to get through it. It felt like my music studies, eyes closed and through. In the end it got better, it didn't get better. It got worse and worse. I then read in retrospect, because there are so many tracks on this Colorado roller coaster that are dark. They are hidden.
Starting point is 00:30:31 And it's really crazy if you don't see what's happening in front of you, in which curve it goes. And it's bouncing left and right. And it pushes you in. It pushes you against this hard metal beam. I read that the big parts of this dark section were added afterwards because of noise complaints from the neighborhood in Brühl. So it's actually the neighbors of the Phantasialand's fault that it's such a hell of a ride.
Starting point is 00:30:55 That was so bad for me. So I was knocked out afterwards. I just had to sit for at least an hour or so, sit and drink coke. That was my day in Phantasialand. And I never... I swore I'd never go on a roller coaster again. I'd never go on a roller coaster again. And now you have to say, the next highlight is in the house, Chris. We've been bleeding. It was so much fun for us to go to Phantasialand. It's a funny thing.
Starting point is 00:31:19 You just have to know what fits you. You can dive in a little. It's a bit like cinema cinema. You go in there. You don't necessarily play a big role because everything around is colorful. You eat nachos. And then you go home and can go to the couch or to bed if you want. Yes, and now you decide, next year we two, Chris and me,
Starting point is 00:31:40 go to Disneyland Paris. The trip is booked, it will take place. And eventually we will also, let's see if we can make it, we will also record a episode in Disneyland. Yes, let's see if time permits and also... The octopus out. Yes, the feeling of dizzy and the feeling of fear, whether it works.
Starting point is 00:31:57 We could just buy headsets and then park. No, no, stop it. Besides, you wouldn't hear anything from me and from you all the time. Hysterical laughing. Maybe still pass. Yes, you don't want that. You wouldn't hear anything from me and you'd be laughing hysterically all the time. Maybe I'd give up. Yeah, you don't want to. Nobody wants to hear that. But I want to give a shout out to someone I found on YouTube.
Starting point is 00:32:13 Actually, we could do a bubble update out there if you don't mind. I'd love to. I got off YouTube Rabbit Hole, namely into the colorful world of roller coasters. Let's just sit here and set up a trainer trainer for Bubble Update and then I'll continue. After we got on this train to Colorado, for me it was a hell of a train, for others who say, oh, it's a birthday for kids. But I don't want to judge myself. Everyone should do what they want. I looked at what others think.
Starting point is 00:32:47 I went to YouTube and checked what kind of people test roller coasters. And a huge community of roller coaster freaks, freestylers, freaks. And I watched a lot of videos. This is my rabbit hole from the last two weeks. I watched a lot of videos of a park fan, 95. That's a YouTuber who really tests a lot of amusement parks, roller coasters,
Starting point is 00:33:10 and makes it very, very nice, very sovereignly moderates, and has a lot of knowledge of it. And he also has a year's card, if I understood correctly, for Disneyland, so he's really often in these amusement parks. And he also has a southern accent that I really like, personally, that makes it even more sympathetic. I've looked at that a lot and he says to Colorado, that she's going to Parcellen or Orfalken, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:33:31 Parcellen. I think if you push them into the curves left and right... Yes, that was the worst. But otherwise it's not that spectacular. Oh, yes, okay. But I think it's a legendary roller coaster. Legendary. It's my bubble update, and I've also watched other channels
Starting point is 00:33:51 where they always go on roller coasters and make them so mean, so mean. That's nothing, that's way too weak, nothing works, you can't save that. And then I think, who would like to watch that? I like people who are enthusiastic. And Parkfan95 is really enthusiastic about it. It makes me feel good.
Starting point is 00:34:08 I don't have to go into the parks, I just like to watch his videos. That's just nice, when there are still unsympathetic people who are enthusiastic about something. Did you also have a bubble update? I just wanted to say, I discovered a new Facebook group. I'm always on the road in Facebook groups, I'm always doing and doing.
Starting point is 00:34:26 I always find new groups. That doesn't stop with me. It's so cool. I have hyperfocus on a new group again. And now I've discovered something. And that's probably the thing in the US. CCID is the abbreviation. It even has its own abbreviation.
Starting point is 00:34:42 This group is so popular. Is that a space program or something state-wide? Better. It's the cookie cutter identification. And it's really about identifying cookie cutters. It's from people who find some cutters in the kitchen, and then they have them in their hands and ask themselves, what the hell is that? What's it supposed to represent? Don't know what they're supposed to do? Go into the group, post a photo and ask people around the wheel,
Starting point is 00:35:11 what is this? Yes, sometimes very clearly, you mean this aluminum and plastic plug, where you make cookies out of it, Christmas cookies, for example. And then sometimes there are very obvious things, stars, Christmas tree, but sometimes it's more like, yeah, it's going in the direction of clouds, but it's obviously not a cloud. And that's where you can ask this question,
Starting point is 00:35:31 you can get advice. Right, you can get advice and the collective tries to find out together what this is all about. Is it a reindeer, is it a penis, is it a, what do I know, a cow? There's everything. And I always think, I've just discovered the niche, and then I look and see, members, 206,000.
Starting point is 00:35:51 That's another dimension. And that goes past us, that's a parallel society, Chris. You would never have known if I hadn't found this group. So either there are a lot of people who don't know what kind of places the outcasts have at home and are desperate, or there are a lot of people who don't know what kind of places they have at home and are desperate. Or there are a lot of people who just like to guess what kind of place they are. I think both.
Starting point is 00:36:11 And there are extremely bad cookie cutter companies that make very, very fluffy figures. Where it's like a tube test. Where you don't know what you see. Everyone sees something different. And then you can go to the Christmas table, the Advent table, get coffee and cake,
Starting point is 00:36:28 the car sharing car is timed. You can ask your relatives what they see in there and try to read things out. Especially, you know how self-baked Christmas cookies look, right? If the shape already looks like that, how does the cookie look then? It always looks 10 percent more, at least, shittier than the cutout shape.
Starting point is 00:36:49 Yeah. That's a mystery to me. It would be interesting to know what is the most popular cutout shape in the world? What is it? Safe, a heart or a star. Or a circle, just round. A circle?
Starting point is 00:37:00 Round. Yes, because you can just take a glass for that. That's right. That's the most artificial. We also learned that earlier. Just take a glass. It's a nice circle. But that's what can just take a glass for it. That's right. That's the cheapest thing. We learned that earlier, just take a glass. A nice circle. But that's what it's gonna be, right?
Starting point is 00:37:11 Heart, star or circle? Heart, star, circle, yes. Those are the three, the big three. I wanted to share this bubble update with you. This group really drives me around. I'm involved a lot and I try to puzzle a lot. I don't comment, of course, I don't want to be outed by someone in the group.
Starting point is 00:37:25 But I always look at what's new, what forms are there, where can I find some answers. I also have two recommendations that I used when I was on the road. On the one hand, it's about falling asleep. Many people know it, you're awake in the evening, you don't know where to go with yourself. Sometimes it's enough to have a basic noise. There are a lot of people who hear white noise or rain sounds.
Starting point is 00:37:47 Or this podcast maybe. And I've discovered a good thing for me that helps me. You know baseball in the US, a popular broadsport. I also help myself when I sleep. And you were playing baseball and said it was the longest you've ever experienced. Yes, that's right. ever experienced in your life. Yes, that's right. Five hours in New York. I went there early and then it went on for five hours.
Starting point is 00:38:14 So incredibly long games. And you didn't understand the rules, I think. They're not that easy, I think. Maybe because it's just taking so long. In principle, it's just about throwing the ball away and then running around in a circle, and then you get the points. But I've found something now. And it used to be like that in the US,
Starting point is 00:38:33 but I think it's still there that baseball is also transferred over the radio, which is also the case with football. But that's really more in commenting, what tactical chess moves are being drawn, who is being switched? How many strikes? I found Fake Baseball Radio as a podcast. That's Northwoods Baseball Sleep Radio. There's a lot of white noise, a very quiet voice,
Starting point is 00:38:57 and it's invented teams, invented games. The episodes last two and a half hours, two hours. You can hear them very very well to fall asleep, if you just need a little bit of a snoring and someone who's babbling something in English. That's brilliant! So is that AI-like or are there really people who really make the effort and invent and comment games?
Starting point is 00:39:17 I can't say. I'm not 100% sure. It could be AI, but please let me have the illusion that someone is sitting here for two and a half hours... Just for you. Just for me and inventing names, statistics and values. But that's really a cool tip. I also have a game for my phone. I don't know if there's a tablet or computer for you.
Starting point is 00:39:39 I have it on my phone anyway. And to bridge the gap, especially between the performances, I was nervous, I wanted to distract myself. I asked myself, is there a picture game? Where's Walter? We all know him. These books, where you have to find Walter from a big picture with many little figures. By the way, back in the second grade,
Starting point is 00:39:58 when we started reading, I spent a day in the library, and it was called Everybody Seeks a Book, and until next week, read five pages each. And what did I pick? I picked a Wimelbild book, because I'm so smart. Because there's no book in there. That's really smart.
Starting point is 00:40:15 I found a Wimelbild game, not where's Walter, but it says, hidden forks. Hidden forks. F-O-L-K-S. No, like people. Ah, forks. People. Hidden forks. Hidden people. Hidden people.
Starting point is 00:40:28 And that's really nicely done. It's only black and white, but it's a nice sound-college, it's nice to animate. My tip is, you can change the ad for the screen, then it's beige and not just white. Barefoot living. Exactly, then you don't lose your horn at night
Starting point is 00:40:45 when you play it in the dark. That's my recommendation. Hidden Forks, the game to distract yourself, to get time on the bus stop, in the train, at work, at school, wherever. At the coffee and cake, at the time window of Karl Scherrer. Exactly, really a very good tip. I've read Thomas Tuchel, the football coach,
Starting point is 00:41:04 a world coach, has now taken over the English national team. But that's not what I want to talk about with you. But I've read that he's from the home office, from home, coaching the team. What? He's at home. Over Zoom or what? Over Zoom.
Starting point is 00:41:18 And then says, uh, now a flank. Now, uh, five men in the wall. But then with delay, because the internet is unstable. Yeah, we'll switch you out. You come out, you come in. Put on the long stoles. Yes, he lives in it, dreams from home. From the couch, actually the world, at least the football world,
Starting point is 00:41:39 in England rule. That's 100% the best paid home office job ever, right? What was her name again? Klatten? Since Susanne Klatten also does home office, I don't know. She does home office guaranteed. If she does office at all. What did you say?
Starting point is 00:41:53 1.1 million per hour? So 1 million per hour, yes. Wow. I think that's more, but at least 1 million per hour. But I expect her to come to the office at least once a week. So we don't lose ourselves. That she also cleans the dishes. That she does the kitchen work.
Starting point is 00:42:09 Does the kitchen work. Cleans the old, dried coffee cups. Cleans the machine. That's probably the least, Susanne. Yes, and please, Susanne, don't steal a snack bear. You don't do that. Safe, she steals it in the snack bear with her hourly wage. Yes, earns one million per hour, but steals snacks for two euros.
Starting point is 00:42:25 But these are exactly the people who say, we kept it, not given it away. These are always the richest. Do you think Susanne Klatten has already put a new paper in the copier? No, but she has already stolen tampons. Safe. Good. Stealing toilet paper is actually also a human act at the end of the day.
Starting point is 00:42:48 That's a citizen duty. That's another disadvantage for Thomas Tuchel. He can't steal toilet paper from the English national team. He has to steal it from Seltzerbe. What's their name in English? Thomas Tuchel? I don't know. Probably. Thomas Tuchel. But it's crazy that he's going to England now,
Starting point is 00:43:05 so England is a pretty tough football country, if I may say so as a layman. Do we want to start to think if that was a smart move for the national team? Get the new one out! Yes. In any case, these are goals that you coach a team from home.
Starting point is 00:43:22 So I imagine you're sitting on a couch, a couch that has an LED LED lighting on the bottom. Do you know that? You see it sometimes. It has a purple floor lighting. You're sitting there with a pack of Pringles in your hand and a big pan of iced tea with a headset. It has a huge TV, as big as a table. Yes, and it smells a little like poop.
Starting point is 00:43:42 And speaking of poop, I have to go now, Chris. It's time to go. table. And it smells like poop. And I have to go now, Chris. It's time to go. The transition was bad. But I have to... I have to earn my 1.1 million an hour bitterly. So I have to go to the desk. I'm coaching from home now.
Starting point is 00:44:00 A team that doesn't exist. The sternsinger. I'm creating an imaginary baseball podcast with the sternsinger. They play baseball for me and I watch it at home. And sometimes I throw a sweet one out the window. Very good. Well, I'd say we'll be back next Tuesday. See you on the Drini Tuesday. Have a wonderful week. A very heartwarming week and we'll see you on Tuesday.
Starting point is 00:44:20 Thank you for listening. See you soon and bye. Bye. Thanks for listening. Bye!
