All right, you got me go ahead. You got me go ahead. Yeah, we're cool. Yeah, hi, five man. You are a firefight, you are Aaron Keef. Uh, yeah, who's that name?
Starting point is 00:01:16 My name is Max Love Griefsley, I can't confirm or deny that I am a member or an associate of the United States federal government. Well, you are. Otherwise, you wouldn't say that. Nobody comes up and says, I can't confirm or deny and then sells knives. But you understand how I can't confirm or deny that that's that I am in any association with the United States federal government. Every time we enter the door, it gets contentious.
Starting point is 00:01:38 No matter who it is. And pedantic. Yes. Let's try to be good. Okay. Let's try to be good. Yes. Okay, let's try be good. Yes. Okay, the Titches and Pidetic doesn't sound like the United States federal government. So probably that's just one another clue to say that I can't prop.
Starting point is 00:01:50 I'm here on business that is unofficial and yet very official. He left the clause for government. And I'm here on business that was never here. And yet I was never here. Do you understand? Yeah. Okay, this has got to be about JPC or the alien that crashed in our backyard. Oh, yeah. Or the alien that crashed in our backyard. Good point, Adel. We get a lot of calls about that. You can keep them. I get I am here
Starting point is 00:02:17 for a very specific reason. And it is to inform the two of you of the passing of one of your relatives. We can neither confirm or deny. He was at the service of you of the passing of one of your relatives, we can either confirm or deny. He was at the service of the United States government at the time of his death. JPC was a spy. We can't confirm or deny the place that he died, what he was doing. I'm sorry to say that your uncle, Marcos, has passed away. Oh, oh, no, Uncle Marcos. Aaron, can I see you two feet back here?
Starting point is 00:02:46 Of course. Do you have an Uncle Marcos? No, absolutely. No. Wait, wasn't this guy's name Marcos slippery wet or something? My name is Maglevs. Whoa, you can't come in. You can't come in.
Starting point is 00:02:57 Back up, buddy. Back up, back up, back up. I see you can't come in. Aminit domain, not that I met from the government. Okay, Aaron, we know he's not a vampire. Okay. That if they apart from him. We did invite Aaron, we know he's not a vampire. Okay. We did invite him in. We don't have an uncle Marcos.
Starting point is 00:03:08 We don't have an uncle Marcos. We watch Narcos on Netflix. You probably know him by his full name. Your uncle, Marcos Santa. Uncle Santa. Uncle Santa's dead. And he works for the government and we're related to him. Take a firmer tonight. I guess, well, actually, I for the government and we're related to him.
Starting point is 00:03:25 I guess actually I guess he listed us as only next to Ken. Oh my gosh. He's dead. Thank God. Thank God. Can we see the body? I want to confirm. I want to see with my own fucking eyes.
Starting point is 00:03:36 I unfortunately cannot honor that request at this time. I just want you to know what he is dead and the United States federal government, which I'm not a member of wipes his hands of him I didn't know that. I wish you're in the office. I wish you good luck Let's celebrate and I wish you a happy rest of your day is JPC dead to What about what about the guy who just knows who everyone is? I thought maybe no I don't know who JPC is man Can I say something? No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, I say something? No, no, no, no, no. You keep him.
Starting point is 00:04:06 We don't want him to be. We need to JPC. Be landed in our backyard. We need to JPC. Well, I guess Aaron, what do we do from here? I mean, Uncle Santa was all first. I was the fucking worst, but he was legally our uncle because he went to court and signed those documents, even though we didn't agree to it.
Starting point is 00:04:31 And I guess we now own whatever Uncle Santa's own since we were his next of kin. So he had that was a particularly nasty number two. And I couldn't find the bathroom. We what did I miss, Uncle Santa's dead. Oh, we're gonna go to Chili's and celebrate. Oh, Chili's too, Aaron. Wow, I'm sorry, you guys loved him, right? No, we hated him.
Starting point is 00:04:56 We hated Uncle Santa. Listen back to that episode. I hated that. He is. Interesting. I guess I wasn't there for that episode, so I don't technically know how you felt about him. Yeah, well, listen to that an episode I'm not on.
Starting point is 00:05:05 Where were you? You said you had entered a beauty contest? I said I got second place at a beauty contest. And you won $100? It was $100, gives the certificate to Chile. So I guess I'd buy you. Nah, nah, nah, nah. You got my baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, I'd say improv that in riddles. Yeah, that's what we like. We like improv in riddles. And then we also like building a continuous narrative.
Starting point is 00:05:46 So maybe information that happens in this episode will affect future episodes. We just don't know. I can't imagine. I can't imagine that. A thousand years since we recorded. Did I miss anything? Biggest gap.
Starting point is 00:05:59 Worldwide politically, no. I think the biggest gap is in, I want to say, where's the biggest gap? Times Square, right? Ariana Strange. Oh, the biggest gap. Yes, the biggest gap. No, they got a pretty big one of the Ariana Strait as well.
Starting point is 00:06:13 It's in nobody goes. No, they have a huge old Navy there. Get your fast straight. That's right. Yeah. Yeah, nothing happened in the world since our last recording. So, hey, honestly, the biggest gap, Alfredi Newman. I guess I'm just fishing for people to say, Aaron, what did you get up to?
Starting point is 00:06:28 And I get to say, guys, I saw the Chris Angel mine freak show in Vegas. I was sort of fishing for that. Aaron, but that's fine. You probably don't want to hear about how I saw mind-freak and Vegas. Aaron, is that old mind-freak still kicking around? Yeah, he is. And it's unwatchable. He's so chatty for a magic show.
Starting point is 00:06:48 Here's the thing. I don't consider him a real magician, Allah, pen and teller, Lance Burton, et cetera, because his shirts are so busy, yes, his shirts are so busy that they distract, they are distracting to any audience member, anybody who's participating in a magic trick.
Starting point is 00:07:09 Now any good magician knows, misdirection is your friend. You need misdirection, but a busy, busy and hard teacher. She's the greatest teacher of all, misdirection. Yes, well, she's married now. She's a Mrs. director. How was my talk? Miss Machance.
Starting point is 00:07:22 Bad. Miss Machance. Well, you still have Miss Machance. You could make her miss miss Machance. I'm not miss Machance by now I do legitimately want to know about my freak. Uh, well So this I'll just give you why I went we were Invagus for a couple days for a concert. Okay, And we were swimming in the pool of our hotel. And we could see what we would have phrased that. The mind freak poster on the Planet Hollywood hotel.
Starting point is 00:07:52 And we were laughing so hard about it. We're like, what is that even like? Sean at a slot machine won some money. He won like 200 and something dollars. Very exciting. Celebrate. Yeah, this is Sean. One like 200 and something dollars. Very exciting. Celebrate. Yeah, celebrate.
Starting point is 00:08:07 He upgraded, got the best seat that money could buy at mind-free. For us. The whole, first of all, I've never laughed harder in my life than I did at the show. It is so bad. And then I was also laughing so hard. Thank you for how much money we gave to,
Starting point is 00:08:24 not very good person. Bit of a problematic show. I would not recommend you spending your money on that. He did like a couple tricks. He was drinking out of a red solo cup the whole time. He was chaught chatty and I've never laughed hard in my life. If you can upgrade to the best seats in a Vegas show for two people for $200 something wrong.
Starting point is 00:08:44 Yeah. And he went, at least the show was better than Cirque du So Shit. And I was like, okay, that was worth all the money. Thank you. Here is a one star review from four months ago for Chris Angels, Mind Freak. A washed up magician who literally killed a bird during his performance and threw it out of his jacket. The first 20 minutes of the performance was just a YouTube montage of every time his name has ever been said ever. The show was filled with so many unnecessary sexual jokes
Starting point is 00:09:08 in bad taste, which will not hold up well for much longer. I would say probably not at all. The trick wires were obvious and the razor blade trick video was obviously pre-recorded. I looked up to Chris Agile as a kid, but a performer is supposed to alter his performance as he ages to not look like an immature, narcissistic egomaniac who chooses to include cheating on his wife at his daily show. I feel kind
Starting point is 00:09:29 of bad for him. He looks exhausted. Glad he donates money, but it's time for retirement. But it was actually hilarious for it to watch Chris Angel put zero effort into a terribly funny, not supposed to be choreographed, fight scene. I told you the funny shit I've ever seen you guys. Wait, what? He was fighting like he was in a video game, but he was kicking maybe four inches off the ground. He was like, these guys would run at him and he would be like, like, little kid swing kicking
Starting point is 00:09:58 at these guys. Is it magic? No, no, and I was crying laughing. There was also a video halfway through that was a montage of people like on the street being like, Chris Angel, can you levitate me? And then it would like cut to him levitating. I'm like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Chris Angel, can you levitate us?
Starting point is 00:10:16 Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. It is, I will say that review is so spot on. It's incredible. I got to say reading the one star reviews of Chris Angels, Myd Freak are very fun. A lot of people didn't really enjoy the show, I will say. I kept looking over at Sean and he was just wincing and I was like, we could have gotten
Starting point is 00:10:36 an incredible dinner instead of doing this. We've done literally anything. We could spoon the best buffet ever. Every time I've seen a show, I've almost gone to character top show several times at the I want to say it's at the Luxor But I always bail last minute Every time I've seen a show in Vegas it is a sea of coughs Here and did you experience this yes of coughs? It is nonstop It's like someone talking or something happening or a song and it's just
Starting point is 00:11:04 80 people coughing because people in Vegas A lot of them tend to be older. So it's just non-stop coffee. Oh, oh, I thought you met from the people on stage Like someone's doing like a fucking play and I was Teller would not stop coughing Well, I spent two weeks in Italy and Montenegro, but we do not have time for that. J.B. Z. Let's go ahead and get us this little. Well, something that I did is I wrote a little game. So we all are familiar with our friend Sandy,
Starting point is 00:11:31 who was just here last week and his little game. So I have a little variety of a Sandy inspired game. And I'm not really stepping on his toes because it's very JPC. So we're going to be playing... We'll see if you can be sent to the C-Synasis. D-C-Synasis. We're're gonna be playing... We'll see if you can be playing... We'll see if you can be playing... ...the C-Synasis. The C-Synasis.
Starting point is 00:11:46 We're gonna be playing a little idiom game. So I have for you some idioms that are relatively common in the American parlance. If you've never heard one of them before, I totally understand. But what we are going to do is I'm gonna be giving you an idiom, a phrase, right? And you are gonna be telling me where you think I think that phrase came from, okay? JPC, can I say something? Sure.
Starting point is 00:12:10 Famously, I don't know, five or six years ago. I did a Patriot episode called, Praise the Roof, where I was doing idioms. And then Sandy brought this in a couple months ago. So if anything, you're stepping on my tip. Yeah, but you had six, what had six years to return in that idea? Okay, that's fair. At this point, I could start doing state series and know what could play be. Aaron?
Starting point is 00:12:34 Aaron? It's got like two months since I've done monster. Aaron, is that right? Yes. You think so. Two months. Yes. Okay, let's stalling to look up.
Starting point is 00:12:43 You're first of all, there has to be a gap between them because I'm only in charging of one in three episodes. Man those gaps pop up so fast. How are they still in this? Yeah, it's a stretch. And then second of all, I had to wait to do the Connecticut one until my friend Michael sent me a sound bite of it and I'm not gonna jump the order.
Starting point is 00:13:01 Wow, that's fair. I appreciate that. So we have to guess. In Aaron's defense, It has been only two months since the last eight one. Was May two months ago or was May, help me out, was May two months ago or six months ago. Good at anyone. It doesn't matter. That's not part of my game. Hey, that's not part of my game. Okay. KCR HR. Who's HR? Let me check my calendar. Unfortunately, I am definitely a char. Which is awful.
Starting point is 00:13:27 That's all this is for everybody. All the listeners went, what? No, no. What? Remember, a place I worked in Chicago, it was like a tech startup. We didn't have an HR person forever and our just like office manager
Starting point is 00:13:41 was also like kind of de facto HR just such a wild experience. Okay, so here I'm going to give you a comment at idiom and you're going to tell me where you think I think this idiom is from. Okay, interesting. I hope that you can get it exactly as spot on, but I will give points to whoever gets closest. Okay, so Aaron looks like for this game we both need to slip into the mind of JPC and we're both in a coma. Aaron. It shouldn't hurt. It should feel good. It should be bad, but it should feel good. Okay, your first one is hair of the dog that bit you. Hair of the dog that bit you.
Starting point is 00:14:21 Okay, where do you think I think that came from? Here are the dog that bitch you. Are you both familiar with this? Yes, absolutely. It's about if you're hungover or something, you have a little little tuck of alcohol in the morning to stave off the symptoms of a hangover. It doesn't have to be in the morning. Sometimes you get hungover at like you know three o'clock in the afternoon. Now I think originally this came from in old in England. And Adel, I'm just telling you right now that's not gonna help you. If you were a bit by a wall.
Starting point is 00:14:51 Okay. Okay, but that will wear off now we're talking. Okay, so I think you think. What do you think I think this came from? Okay, interesting. Hair of the dog that bit you. I think. Got it that bit you.
Starting point is 00:15:04 Jamesy, I think what it the dog that bitch you. I think- I think that bitch you. Jamesy, I think what it means is that if spaghetti, if you're on the couch, plug all their skate, whatever, number, whatever, and spaghetti keeps biting you, she is telling you to take her to the salon. So you go get spaghetti a perm. So it's a thing of like,
Starting point is 00:15:19 she look good with the perm. You think it's when a dog wants a makeover or a blowout that they will bite you until they get what they want. I used to be getting a blowout and she's like, I said chicken parm. I think that you can I guess as well. Yes, Aaron, you can guess as well. I think we're supposed to win. When you go out and party and you eat a bunch of dog hair and then you wake up and you feel kind of sick.
Starting point is 00:15:41 And then you go in order to not feel sick all day, I should eat some more dog hair. I'm gonna read the answer, and you guys can tell me who you think is closest. Great. It used to be legal to let dogs drink alcohol because scholars thought that since dogs don't sweat, they would process the alcohol by growing it out of their hair.
Starting point is 00:15:57 And drunks who have been cut off used to eat big handfuls of dog hair to get a buzz. Now dogs don't like getting their hair pulled, so they would often bite the, let's be honest here, man, who was trying to eat their hair, which would cause a lot of pain, and the only self of that pain would be to get even drunker, so they would of course be reaching for the hair of the dog. That bitch you. Aaron?
Starting point is 00:16:16 Adal, are you happy for me? I'm scared. Adal, be happy for me. You can be both two things to be true at once. You shouldn't be scared. You should be feeling bliss. The bliss that Aaron feels. Aaron feels.
Starting point is 00:16:29 You get correct. Your next idiom. Thank you, Adal. Monkey business. Monkey business. Okay, what do you think I think monkey business came from? Adal, you take it. Okay, I think Aaron, I think we're probably both
Starting point is 00:16:41 on the same wavelength here. I assume JBC, you think monkey business came from when little monkey bones opened. He went to that abandoned mall and he bought one a kiosk and he opened up his own lids. Now, lids is usually a full on store, but he had little monkey bones lids, which was just the kiosk. Now he only had five or six baseball caps or lids as they refer to. Yes. And he went broke. And of course, going broke made him go insane.
Starting point is 00:17:12 He started eating a ton of dog hair and he got drunk off that. Uh-huh. That's where I think you think they came from. Okay. That's okay. So Lids, dog hair, drunk, and the mall. I got it. In 1981, a bunch of monkeys took over a five leans in Santa Fe, New Mexico. At first, it was going okay. After, which is a couple weeks, holiday season hit, Black Friday through Christmas. Absolute chaos.
Starting point is 00:17:40 These monkeys could not run a business. And that's where we get monkey business from because that you go, that's all chaos and silliness. You're running this like the monkeys did in 1981 at Phyland in Santa Fe, New Mexico. I'll let you guys decide who was a little closer. This is pretty straightforward. And the strike waves of the 1910s employers briefly tried to replace workers with monkeys, but the monkeys were unable to comprehend basic commands and unwilling to engage in manual labor. The business has quickly went under and the capitalists at the helm of those business were forever stained with the reputation of one
Starting point is 00:18:11 who engages in monkey business. I think I should get it because I mentioned the 20th century as well. You were in the same century. Adel didn't mention what century his took place. Well, it was a list. Which has to be 18th and on. Yeah. Let's see. Do you think lids and do you think lids existed before 1981? Napoleon famously got his hat from a lids. It was between that and a Yankees hat. When the Apple TV show comes out,
Starting point is 00:18:40 we'll I'll be proved right. Mariah has been doing a little thing where she pretends like she does her remember what little monkey bones is called. And she'll be like, Hey, that's your character, right? Little crazy guy. Little crazy guy, right? That could be any of your characters. That's true.
Starting point is 00:18:54 Aaron, I think you're closer. You have two points on the board. Adelaide, you really need to step up your game. I am happy for you. Where did the phrase more fun than a barrel of monkeys come from? Why are monkeys in barrels? In 1981. A bunch of monkeys took over.
Starting point is 00:19:07 Your next one is shit eating grin. What do you think shit eating grunt in front of you? Okay, shit eating. Aaron, nobody wants to do any of them. You're going to find the saw movies, right? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Force to play. Shit. Okay.
Starting point is 00:19:29 You're in. Shit eating grin. Now, JPC, I think you think this comes from, I mean, to answer this, I do have to go back to another idiom, which is grin and bear it. Oh. Now, I think that you think grin and bear it comes from, we all know Pennywise, the clown from it. You think that there's a bear version of everything.
Starting point is 00:19:47 You think there's a multiverse where it's all, oops, all bears. You famously said that the bear it is way scarier than the clown it. Yes. Even though it is a bear and clown makeup, who's actually like an alien spider, you think anytime you see the bear it
Starting point is 00:20:01 because it's a different universe, you grin because you're happy because the bear is in it's a different universe you grin because you're happy because the bears in clown makeup instead of scared. Now where was I carried the one? Now you think that when you're so happy because you saw a clown penny wise, a bear clown penny wise, that you get hungry because of all your grinning grinning bruises. Yes. Hallories. Of course famously Brad Pitt when he was cast as a kille's in Troy, she'd gummed constantly to make his job line
Starting point is 00:20:29 more noticeable, more prominent. It worked. So you're getting hungry because all the smiling, so you eat a big pile of shit. You think it comes from eating shit and being thrilled about it, is what the summary is. But I needed all that exposition. The context is good. It's good.
Starting point is 00:20:45 Yeah, Aaron. Um, famous adult. Really smart answer. Eating poop on purpose is funny. You try not smiling while you're doing it. If you can, you're a better person than me. But if you can't, you'll also have a shit eating grain. Addle, the point is yours.
Starting point is 00:21:02 Aaron, that strategy is not gonna work out well for you. Ah. Your next idiom is not gonna work out well for you. You're next, you're next, and you have his pass the buck, pass the buck. I will say Aaron's strategy of, Adel, you go ahead, is working pretty well. That's working great, that's working great for her. Pass the buck, okay, I do wanna go first actually in this one.
Starting point is 00:21:18 I think that you think pass the buck comes from sometimes when you're driving cross country. Yes, especially between Minnesota and Montana, you'll be on the road and there'll be a car in front of you. Even those white open spaces, you'll be on the road and there'll be a car in front of you that's going like 20 and a 55. I hate that. And you get so upset, you're like honk honk honk honk, nothing's happening. You go around because there's limited traffic. As you pass them, you see there's a deer driving the car. Sure. And you go, okay, that makes sense. Dears famously, the number one
Starting point is 00:21:52 enemy of carfall. Nobody has it worse in terms of cars than deer's. So of course, they're going to consider unsubscribing right now. Of course, they're going to go out of their speed limit. So when you pass those drivers, that is called passing the book. Yeah. Okay. Yes, interesting. You're going to be like, I'm going to be like, I'm going to be like, I'm going to be like, I'm going to be like, I'm going to be like, I'm going to be like, I'm going to be like, I'm going to be like, I'm going to be like, I'm going to be like, I'm going to be like, I'm going to be like, I'm going to be like, I'm going to be like, I'm going to be like, I'm going to be like, I'm going to be like, I'm going to be like, I'm going to be like, I'm going to be like, And someone says something that's offensive. Someone that says something, that's offensive. Okay. Yeah, that's messed up.
Starting point is 00:22:29 You tell them, are you past the buck to them, which is you're all eating deer at your table? It says you're your dad killed a deer that day. With a car. And so, yes, exactly your dad killed a deer with a car. And they said, the people, we live by a national park and they said, if we had another deer, we have to move. We have to eat the evidence.
Starting point is 00:22:49 And so they pass, you pass the deer that you're eating to your dad when he says something out of pocket. Real quick, do I still have time? I forgot to mention mine 19th century. Mine is 18th century. Addle. My body really didn't want to say that. Before currency was standardized in Portugal in 1456, there was only one dollar and everyone just went to market and took turns trading their goods for it and then using it to buy
Starting point is 00:23:19 more raw materials. This process was known as Passando Abola, or English, Passig, the buck. Your idiot. You are closer. You're a better idiot. You are an idiot. It's that passionately. It's three to one.
Starting point is 00:23:38 Three to one, Aaron. What about the phrase? We all know this one. I'm all ears. Where did this one come from? I'm all ears. Where did this one come from? I'm all ears. Where did this one come from? I don't want you to go first, or would you like me to go first?
Starting point is 00:23:48 Aaron, and I'll honestly, I would like to just take a brief pause and support and back up what you just said, which is, I think a lot of people talk about we're living in a simulation. And a lot of, I've heard things like the best proof of this simulation is if you think about a car on the road driven by a deer or otherwise, if you think about a car on the road, driven by a deer or otherwise, if you think about a car on the road, you're sitting in a car, say you're sitting in a Nissan Centra, from year seat,
Starting point is 00:24:10 which is a driver's seat to the passenger's seat, is X amount of space. Now you think of a bus that fits in that same lane, same lane of a road, and think about how there's like four seats across with a huge aisle down the middle. How is a bus on a car able to both fit in one lane of a road? That's what we talk about when I talk about simulation.
Starting point is 00:24:29 I think Aaron, everyone's an idiot, and that JPC is the perfect proof that we are in a simulation. Because the gibberish he's supposed to. These sort of blender-esque alphabet spew that he pours into our ears. Yeah, he does make me question reality. He's a virus in the cup. Mm-hmm. He does hurt my brains. This is all making sense. James, you said oops all ears. What was it? Ears? Let me hear it. And I want to reiterate,
Starting point is 00:24:56 I have plenty of riddles. We have a lot. We have thousands in the email. I chose to play this game. I'm all ears. I'm all ears. I'm this game. I'm all ears. I'm all ears. I'm all ears. I'll go first. Aaron please. Please. I'll go first.
Starting point is 00:25:12 Aaron please. I'll go first. Aaron please. I'll go first. Aaron please. I'll go first. Aaron please. Aaron please.
Starting point is 00:25:20 Aaron please. Aaron please. Aaron please. Aaron please. Aaron please. Aaron please. Aaron please. Aaron please. Aaron please. Aaron please. But you understand how maybe that's yeah, yeah, maybe a guy goes to a Halloween party. Okay, and he's a great listener and he dresses up as a bunch of ears of corn. Huh. He's a all he a bunch of corn is stuck to him and then he Someone starts talking in his head tilts and he starts warmly nodding and smiling
Starting point is 00:25:44 Because he's all ears. He's all ears. That's a good Halloween costume. Yeah, you're welcome. Nothing else. I would say same as Aaron, but I can't fully say that because it's similar to Aaron's. I think I'm all ears comes from a, we'll say 12 year old, uh, British child attending a Halloween party. Um, he dresses as Algiers, but of course he's Cockney. So when he shows up to the party and somebody says, what are you? He says, I'm always, now do you understand how that is? What you would think I'm all ears comes from and not what I would think. I'm all ears comes from.
Starting point is 00:26:21 We don't want to have to think like you dangerous in there. I can't, I don't have to. Humans think like you dangerous in there. I can't. Don't have to. Humans had way more ears because there were more predators. And we had less tools to defend ourselves. As the human brain capacity grew, our ability to create language, shared meaning, society and agriculture develops. And we had less need for these extra features and through the process of evolution,
Starting point is 00:26:39 they began to disappear. But for a time, the more modern humans still interacted with our earlier brethren, much in the same way that high society city dweller might look down on a rural country folk today, two weird humans had disdain for these others. Socially, if one made a faux pas or said something ignorant, they would often deflect their mistake by saying, I'm all ears. Adam. Now you mentioned, no, he said, I heard agriculture at some point. So, uh, court is agriculture. I don't want to. Yeah, court is agriculture. I don't want to. Yeah. Corn is agriculture. I gotta give it to Aaron.
Starting point is 00:27:07 He points real dirty at all. You take it. Four to one, Aaron. There's only two left and it's anyone's game. Here's the next category. Terrence game. Well, yeah, Aaron wins. Spill the beans. What do you think? What do you think? I think spill the beans came from. Which I think I think I got. Aaron, please.
Starting point is 00:27:25 A guy, this is in the, like around the depression time in the 20th century. So yesterday? No, I didn't say it. Are you a political cartoon? So this guy, his whole family is like, does anyone have any beans left? He's like, I don't have any beans. I have no secrets to keep from you guys. You guys are my family,
Starting point is 00:27:50 but I had beans to be sharing them. And then he's like, I'm gonna go out for a walk and all his beans come out of his jacket pocket and they all look at him. And they've discovered all of his secrets because he spilled the beans. Interesting. He was trying to save those beans. Adolf, you want to steal? Okay. Aaron, I'm going to try a new tactic and I'm going to try and talk like GP riddles
Starting point is 00:28:10 or something. Getting that cadence of like this could help you. This could help. Okay. Don't get stuck in there. One time there was a big man named Kyle Kajwak. He was a mountainous man and a half man half mountain mountain on top, mountain on the bottom. So full mountain. He one day he got a bunch of beaded, beaded babies, put a bit of blender, drink it up. And he said, oh, he spit it out. I spilled the beans. Oh, my eyes went full white. Okay.
Starting point is 00:28:36 Who is closer here? Uh, well, I don't, I'll read the answer and you can decide. In the 17th century, beans was one of the most common names into spill a person meant to have sexual relations with them. In a modern American context, a person whose name is unknown might be called a John or Jane Doe. Having sex with an anonymous stranger today might be called pardon the vulgarity, screwing a John.
Starting point is 00:28:56 But back then, it was more often understood as spilling the beans. Yeah. No one really had anything related to that answer in there. And pick the answer you like the best. It's going to be Addles and Addle you get double points for that. So it's three to five. So it's three to four.
Starting point is 00:29:12 So it's anyone's game. It somehow got a point for a mountain drinking beanie babies. Well, not something I woke up this morning. Your final category. Your final, if your final idiom is my neck of the woods. Where do you think I think my neck of the woods came from? My neck of the woods. My neck of the woods.
Starting point is 00:29:34 If you, or okay, I'll go first. Yes, my neck of the woods. I think this pertains to a lot of dirty, murderous deeds go down in forests. A lot of killers will take their victims to a second location, usually out in the wilderness. So I think this comes from someone who was beheaded on top and bottom. So it's just like the neck portion and it comes from them being slotted in the woods. The investigators found their neck and started to say this is my neck.
Starting point is 00:30:16 Everyone was trying to be like, I saw the case, I saw the case because it's a bunch of investigators. But the first one there who was holding neck was like, it's my neck of the woods. So I get to sort of get the tag on that. That's interesting. That's an interesting that you think my think,
Starting point is 00:30:32 that you think my brain would go in that direction. Aaron, what do you think I think? I think Adel's right. Is that gonna help you in this game, Aaron? Is that gonna hurt you in this game? The owners that could hurt you in this game. I don't even know anymore. Guy who lost his neck and they replaced it with a tree. And when anyone ever says that they're connected to the forest, he goes, no, that's my neck of the woods.
Starting point is 00:31:03 And when he first got it done, he looked in the mirror and he goes do you think anyone will notice? Alright we'll see who's closer to 11 feet tall. We'll see who's closer and who wins the game that I did not. Think of a title for it. My neck of the woods. In prehistory people believe that we basically lived on the bodies of dead giants. Lakes were belly buttons, mountains were butts and breasts, etc.
Starting point is 00:31:26 This was mostly very easy to understand, and straightforward in explanation. But forests presented a more difficult problem. Since trees were seen as hair, and hair covers a significant portion of the body, it became necessary to delineate the different parts of the woods based on what one of the giant's body parts it was most likely in. Every forest was divided into five quadrants or quintants if you want to be pedantic, which I don't. Feet butt back, junk, and head. Each one of these has several different subcategories as well. So if you lived in
Starting point is 00:31:54 the southernmost part of the head of the woods, you might describe your dwelling as my neck of the woods. I think Aaron's closer. I do think Aaron's closer. Aaron had more neck. Not possible. It's stuff with tree neck. Yeah, I think I got to give it to Aaron. Aaron, you win the game that I didn't think that I needed to title until right now when I have to announce who wins it.
Starting point is 00:32:18 Now JPC, they famously say that if you put a thousand monkeys, back to monkeys, if we put a thousand monkeys in a room for a thousand years with a thousand typewriters, they couldn't replicate Shakespeare. What I'll say is if you put one monkey in a room with one typewriter on cocaine for one minute, he could absolutely write everything you just, good point. Okay. How do you know that's not exactly what I did? You think I have the time to just go write all of these? No, I got monkeys and I have cocaine. And speaking of keeping my monkeys in tip top cocaine,

Starting point is 00:40:42 the show. HRRpodcast.gmail.com. Here's some riddles and they come from Lauren. Lauren writes, I hold in me the beginning of time. You can exit me, but you cannot enter me. You can see in me, but you cannot see me. And I can only be used once per year. What am I? Wow.
Starting point is 00:41:03 Mm-hmm. This is whatever it is. This is beautiful. This is beautiful, isn't it? I can't read the beginning. Aaron. What's something you can only use once a year? I hold in me the beginning of time. You can exit me, but you cannot enter me. You can see in me, but you cannot see me.
Starting point is 00:41:20 And I can only be used once per year. Oh, John Cena. So yeah, because he can't be seen, but he gets way more work than once a year, right? But I mean, usually he'll just do Royal Rumble, because if they bring him back for more than that, people kind of get his interest, right? Yeah. Gotta get a big pop. I take a little issue with the last one.
Starting point is 00:41:40 I can only be used once per year. I get where it's coming from, but I think it's a little bit factually incorrect. Hmm. Okay. Can you give us a hint? Oh. Lauren also provided three clues here. Oh great.
Starting point is 00:41:55 So absolutely. Is this like a New Year's Eve, champagne, flute or something? Yeah, thank you. That'd be some of New Year's Eve. Okay. This is a New Year's Eve. I glue what I forgot about this. Clue 1 is time is relative. Baby New Year is father time.
Starting point is 00:42:10 It doesn't necessarily have anything to do with New Year's. Okay. Specifically. Since Clue 1 is just a tough clue, I'll give you Clue 2. While you could exit it, you could not do so ever again as you could never get back in. So you can exit me, but you cannot enter me. So you are able to exit, but you can only ever exit one time because you can't go back
Starting point is 00:42:32 in. Like a day. Oh, Aaron, a day that is such. Wow. Wow. That is such an interesting, that is such an interesting content. It's not a day. Hmm.
Starting point is 00:42:44 You can exit me, but you can never. Can we have the last clue? Aaron, do you really think you want the last clue? Because once I give you the last clue, there are no more clothes, and then it's on you to figure it out. So do you want to live in a world where you might just,
Starting point is 00:42:58 you might just get it. Aaron, let's scramble for another 10 maybe. Maybe you want to scramble for 10? Aaron, do you want to scramble for 10? I want to see Cuxi. Maybe you want to scramble for 10? Aaron, do you want to scramble for 10? I want to see Cooxine. Do you want to scramble for 10? I want to see a quick seed. Adel and Aaron, you both work in a diner.
Starting point is 00:43:14 Like, you know, it's kind of a breakfast restaurant. You're both cooks, like shorter cooks. But there's only one egg left in the entire diner and someone just ordered an egg and you're debating whether or not you can cook this egg. Okay, what else do we have? What looks like an egg? Uh, four.
Starting point is 00:43:33 We have corn beef. Can't scramble that. Let's see. I'm going to do anything really. You know, I'll take the egg. Um, what can I put in this? What can I put in this? You know what?
Starting point is 00:43:45 I got this. Walks over to computer, types and images of eggs, prints out image, huts it out, puts on plate. I think we're good. Order up. Ding! This is going to be great. It looks like egg.

Starting point is 00:44:58 That's not me. Oh, that's not how I conduct myself. Is that me? Did they love the eggs? Did they love the eggs? Those were Michelin star eggs printed out from a very new printer. They sent it back. I think one of the issues is I think it's just gonna be,
Starting point is 00:45:12 like, it's just kind of inedible for them. Okay. You know what, I heard it now. Now I hear I'm putting like, I'm putting like, zzzzzzz to be that. Walks over to computer, types in, inedible. Okay. All right, so. Not even printing anything out. So cannot be.
Starting point is 00:45:33 You would just go like the word to make you understand it. Oh, yes. Great. Okay, so let's put our heads together. Okay. What can we do? Don't really hope you can't do this. They really need this.
Starting point is 00:45:44 Oh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the us cut to the news. I was trying to soften the blow table For just walked out they didn't they didn't pay for their meal. Um, those expensive They did say They did say before they left they give me one piece of feedback They said that they love the eggs they said that the corn beef not scrambled was absolutely ruined Were scrambled corn beef I don't absolutely ruined. Come on. Come on. You were scrambled, corn beef. I don't know why you can't bake. Oh, that's a little word.
Starting point is 00:46:30 Oh, fuck when the middle of a red light. If I see a hash on a menu, I have to order it. Just because I love that word. So the riddle was, so it's something you can exit but you can never enter again. Is this like a man who stands in a stream can never enter the same stream twice. The man in the streamer never the same kind of thing.
Starting point is 00:46:48 Good question. I don't understand what that means. I think we need the last clue. If I'm being honest, you could have the last crew.

Post the most charming accent I've ever heard. That was amazing. It's awesome. I think it's awesome that they chose to call us from space. Cause I mean, that has to be an outrageously expensive call.
Starting point is 01:03:42 So expensive. What IP would we like to see turn into musical a la Betty Boop, I mean, that has to be an outrageously expensive call. So expensive.

Starting point is 01:03:56 Then I saw someone post something somewhere, maybe it was the patron or discord or something, where they're like, oh my God, Aaron, this is actually a real musical. And I was like, yeah, that's why we were talking about it. Yeah. I have a couple. I think some of them might actually exist or are about to exist.
