This is a, well, this is a thank you so much, Mr. Foreman, you are dismissed. Can I interest you in a grill? You don't think the bling in my mouth already be bawling? I don't understand what you mean.
Starting point is 00:01:02 You said a grill. Robert jurors'estore told me, make me a grill, Nelly. Okay. Sorry. Fuck off, man. Get out of the court. All right.
Starting point is 00:01:11 That was awesome. Also, spot cast not supposed to be funny, it's a hobby in games podcast. Be really just a real... You're really protected by that, aren't you? Yeah, it's actually not supposed to be funny. It's actually supposed to be about riddles. It's formed, but...
Starting point is 00:01:22 You're supposed to be annoying. Then why do the riddles suck? Because it's supposed to be funny. It's actually supposed to be about riddles. It's formed, but... There's supposed to be annoying. Then why do the riddles suck? Because it's supposed to be funny. It's a catch-22, we get in both ways. Catchin' and goin'. Welcome to Hey Riddle Riddle, the podcast where we take riddles. And then we try to solve them. And then we spice them up with some improvised scenes, songs, games, and jokes.
Starting point is 00:01:42 Mm-hmm. I'm Adoreify. Nah, I'm JPZ. And I'm Erin Keith. Uh, what's been going on in your lives? Well, real quick, and jokes. I'm Adore Fie. I'm JPZ. And I'm Erin Keith. What's been going on in your life? Real quick, real quick. You're gonna meet someone. You're meeting someone on the street, or someone in the noob. Okay.
Starting point is 00:01:53 And they say, you say, I do a podcast. And they say, what's your podcast about? What do you say? I don't say that. I do a podcast. That Aaron, I really wish you would. It would be great to tell more people about the show. So, let's say that someone says,
Starting point is 00:02:03 I heard that you do a podcast. Okay. That you have to say, say you're wrong. I'm a doctor of linguistics. Sorry, a doctor of linguine. I'm a spaghetti chef. So someone comes to you and they say, I heard you do a podcast. What's it about?
Starting point is 00:02:17 What do you say? I say it's me and two other comedians. And we talk about reddolds and we do improv. Talk about reddolds and we do improv. Talk about Reddles and we do improv. Okay. Edel, if I say, hey, I heard you do a podcast. Yep. Not magic to have, I don't care about that one.
Starting point is 00:02:33 Okay. Or it looks pecular or any of the other shit. What's the podcast you do again? I care. Say there's a guy fell into a portal behind a Burger King. No, no, no, no. And he has to solve Reddles. That would be a better
Starting point is 00:02:46 podcast. And they never talk about falling into the portal. I'm talking about the Burger King thing. Yeah, we're also behind the Burger King, but you don't see us bragging about it. Yeah, my favorite thing is anytime I someone like just wants to talk to me and they're like, what do you do? And it eventually comes to podcasts. I start to talk about either of my podcasts or both in their eyes glaze over and it's just like, oh, this is a treat. So I guess that's something that we never really have brought up on the show, is that Adel, Aaron, and I are all in...
Starting point is 00:03:11 We're recording this podcast from the magical land of food. We stepped into it. Flume, flume. Well, that'll food. Did they? Did they know that you're a wizard? That what you talked about you being a wizard? How have I talked about that I'm a wizard
Starting point is 00:03:24 from the first? A wizard in the sack. Yeah, from the fourth realm of Ephesius, the Philly, Gellix, Columbia, Snowman. And I'm a shape shifter, and I'm a newbie-ing-er shape. Have we like, have that come up, then I'm like? And that, because it's an audio medium, you don't know the add-als wearing the filthiest pink polo
Starting point is 00:03:40 that I've ever seen in my entire life. And it's a bit of a long con. We really slope play the fact that we're playing different creatures and characters, but it's, I'm having fun. Now, I'm having a great time. I just don't think we ever let the fans kind of know that critical part of the show. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:55 I'm glad they know now. I'm glad they know now. And now they can draw us in a more accurate way. JAPES, I want to purchase you and says, you've been served PS. I hear you have a podcast. What do you say? I have a podcast where we do riddles and then we do improv scenes based on those riddles.
Starting point is 00:04:09 Two succinct. I guess I don't know. I'm trying to think of what a better, I need a better one, I need a better log line. I need something that makes me proud to say it. How do I be proud about this show? Is that possible? That's why I always say I just die audition
Starting point is 00:04:22 for TV shows and commercials and rarely get something. That's when people ask what I do for my own job. Would you say, you think it's better to say, I audition for things that I rarely get that I have a successful thing? Yeah. People don't like when women are successful. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 00:04:38 When I'm in, I'm like, I'm world do you think I live in? I always tell people I thine and want to riddle hell. Oh, that's a good way. I like that. Can I use that too? Yeah, there are people I died and went to Rital Hell. Oh, that's a good way. I like that. Can I use that too? Yeah, there are people I know who like, I feel like, I mean, we're full-time podcasters
Starting point is 00:04:50 that were successful, but I feel like there are people who are always like, are you still doing your little podcasts? I'm like, yeah, it's part of my, huge part of my life. Or they'll be like, what's that like, what's that like, gotcha from the magic castle? And I'm like, gotcha from the magic castle. I gotcha from the magic castle? And I'm like gotcha from the magic castle. I either gotcha from the magic. Either ask the name or don't pretend you don't know. I hope when I was leaving my job and people like,
Starting point is 00:05:12 oh, what's next for you? I was like, well, I'm going to go spend more time doing my podcast. And they're like, oh, wow, I hope that works out. And I was like, no, no, it already did. It already did work out. That's why I believe in this job. That's why I'm leaving for it. It already worked out. It worked out fine present present tense by man I'm gonna keep drowning in auditions I don't get anything and I'm only talking about that We we went to New York. Did you guys have fun in New York? We haven't talked about that. How to great time in New York Oh, yeah, I don't
Starting point is 00:05:46 Like it there. New York, we went for like a few days, but the Saturday, right, it was a Saturday that we were there. The weather was gorgeous. Like beautiful. Unseasonably warm. And I walked around, we walked into a park. It was great, we got to be outside.
Starting point is 00:06:02 Fought some pigeons. We got to be in that park. No one. We stood in the middle of the park and we said, any of you push us out of this park, whoever does gets $1,000. And somebody came over and said, this is a cemetery. We said, without it was a stony park. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:18 We went to stony park. And you said, so my memorials here, Aaron, you and I went and saw Hades town. We did. I'm not. How'd you like it? Oh man, it was so good. I tried to not know much going in, and I had only listened to the soundtrack once going into it, and it was so beautiful and so good.
Starting point is 00:06:36 I would say especially the end of each act, really blew me out of the water. Well, and you watched it while in a pool. Yeah, and I was like, wow, I'm being blown out of the water. In a sensory deprivation tank, right? Yeah. But I've been listening to it a lot since,
Starting point is 00:06:50 if you have the opportunity to see it, it is so good. So thank you, Adel, for the birthday gift of taking me. I hadn't seen a Broadway musical in a long time, and it made me really, really happy. And I got a bagel on Saturday, and I sat in Washington Square Park. Did you meet a bogeycat?
Starting point is 00:07:07 Yeah. It was really nice. Should we beat a pizza rep? I would say I used to be obsessed with the idea of moving to New York my entire life. And then the last 10 times I've been, it's completely eaten me alive. Crazy shit happens to me when I go there.
Starting point is 00:07:21 Like, my hotel charged me three times to stay there this past time, but that Saturday I was like, oh yeah, this is why I love New York so much. Every other time I was like, why is this happening? Why am I in line so long at a whole, that it's...
Starting point is 00:07:35 When I got to my hotel, I got the elevator to go up into my hotel with two other women that were waiting for the elevator, and there was a man who worked for the hotel and the elevator, and we got in the elevator. You said two other women. I'm sorry, so there were two women waiting for the elevator and there was a man who worked for the hotel and the elevator. And we got in the elevator. You said two other women. I'm sorry.
Starting point is 00:07:47 So there were two women waiting for the elevator. Great. A man who worked for the hotel. And then I. Yeah. Anyway, we got into the elevator and we, something smelled weird. We were all like making a face
Starting point is 00:07:57 and he was like, you had fish. And we were like, what? And he's like, where this hotel's above a fish market? We're like, what? And he's like, it only stinks in the elevator. He's like, once you get to your room, it's fine. It's something about the ventilation shaft here. He's like, this is, it smells like fish in this elevator.
Starting point is 00:08:11 And it did. He was right. And he seemed to know immediately what we were like. So. And you stayed at the anchovy rarimata? I didn't. No, I stayed at the anchovy rarimata. Here you go.
Starting point is 00:08:23 Let's see. I just love the way you phrase that where you're. You can do it. You can do it. I just love the way you phrase that where you're like, like if I was like, I was in this park and there was two other dogs there. Double day. Double day. Okay. One else.
Starting point is 00:08:35 I stayed at the okay, but with another name. Who's Old Man Puzzle? I need to tell you a quick story. Yeah, please. I'll tell you guys in the podcast. It's kind of gross and inappropriate, so skip ahead two minutes. You have kids in your car. So Sean and I stay. Wait, wait quick story. Yeah, please. I'll tell you guys in the podcast. It's kind of gross and inappropriate. So skip ahead two minutes. You have kids in your car. So Sean and I stay.
Starting point is 00:08:48 Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. If you've got kids in your car, do not listen to the show with those kids. You know this, it's episode 91. There's no way that they should listen to this. We have a kid friendly. Yeah, go pop on the kid friendly episode. You're fucking dumb, fucking idiot.
Starting point is 00:09:02 Why would you listen to this with kids? Sean and I stayed here. Kids, get your parents' phones, call DSS. Casey, that's what they're gonna say. Get help. Um, I, we stayed an extra day. And so on that Sunday night, we tried to go to sleep. Our flight was, we had to be the airport like six in the morning.
Starting point is 00:09:20 So we were like, we gotta get some sleep. Love and early for it. This is not an exaggeration. This is not hyperbole for four hours. From I would say one to five a.m. The couple in the room next to us in the Venice Walls in the World was having sex for four hours.
Starting point is 00:09:36 And you stayed at Sting's house? Yes, was your hotel? Well, we think they were on cocaine, but it was also the craziest, loudest thing I have ever heard in my life and it did not stop. Can you give us some snippets? Walk me through the journey. I thought that Sean and I were gonna go and say.
Starting point is 00:09:51 Well, Sean humiliated. So, because you can't provide that for you. No, we were both like, that sounds fucking terrible. You're in a hotel, right? Yeah. So, at some point I had that problem on Friday night. The chasing alone. On Friday night, there was people like partying all night
Starting point is 00:10:05 and then once they went to bed at like four, a baby woke up in the room next to us and from four to eight in the morning, the baby was crying. It was more like a toddler and I called down to the front desk because for a couple of those hours, I was pretty sure that someone left a toddler alone.
Starting point is 00:10:20 I was like, there has to be no one else in that room with a toddler. So I was having some hotel problems. And then Sean got there. Saturday night wasn't too bad. We weren't kept up by anything. And then Sunday night, I've never heard anything like it you guys. Can you walk?
Starting point is 00:10:34 Yeah, can it was their ebbs and flows? No, no, no, no ebbs and flows. It was straight up four hours. No, like, like, no like 10 minute break. Aaron, what? Did someone leave a porno on? No, no. It was different enough.
Starting point is 00:10:50 And they had machines involved and there was stuff involved. Was there any word said? What machines? Wait, wait, wait, why are you gonna let that slide? What machines were involved? I gotta see a scene. I gotta see a scene. Like a facts machine.
Starting point is 00:11:01 Was there like a dialogue internet? I gotta see a formative. I gotta see a machine. I was, I was very, very performative. That's the end of the story. It was very performative. Yeah, they weren't, they were making so many noises. For an audience of two. Yeah, but they were making so many noises.
Starting point is 00:11:16 Oh, my clitoris. Yeah, and not of it sounded genuine to me. Oh, my penis feels so great. Do you think that they could have been shooting a porn? No, I don't know. Like in the hotel? No, because there would still be breaks. If not if it's a union show.
Starting point is 00:11:32 But Sean's next. A four hour porn. I want to get to your scene, but Sean is morning in the airport. We were in his flight accident, like his ticket accident, they got canceled. So we were in a bad spot. And then Sean looked over at me and his eyes were buffy.
Starting point is 00:11:45 And he was just like, the moment came, 47. That's my mental. His eyes were buffy. He's sobered out of context, so I'd be like, whoa, they're going through a hard time. Can I? Can I?
Starting point is 00:11:55 I don't want to see a scene. Do you actually have a scene to see? I thought you were saying, I thought you were saying I want to see a machine. I did eventually. Oh, okay. Let's do it. Okay, so, James and I are a see a machine. I did eventually. Okay. Yeah, let's do it. Let's do it. Okay, so James and I are a couple having sex and we're about two and a half hours in and

So as we're continuing to find out. Rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, rats, Oh gosh, you two are vertical stripes. That's not really, uh, it makes a lot look fat. Yeah. See.
Starting point is 00:13:26 That's funny. Did I tell you guys, do I tell you guys about my experience in the airport in Kingcune? No, I can't wait. So, this was when I was coming there for my trip to Mexico. You know, I like that you stop in Kingcune to get to Mexico. Yes. You know, in the office place, in Mexico. In airports, there's a lot of...
Starting point is 00:13:46 Airports that I'm familiar with, especially I guess in the US. There's a lot of security, like especially every time I go to a hair, there's like cops everywhere. Well, we're in the airport in Cancun. It's the line is humongous. We're running late for our flight.
Starting point is 00:14:00 I'm at the little kiosk trying to print off our boarding passes because for some reason, my name is John Patrick. And some reason that never lets me check in for flights because it's like, oh, your name is different from what's on your passport because of the fucking middle name. It doesn't make any sense. Anyway, so we're trying to check in at the kiosk
Starting point is 00:14:18 to get our boarding passes. And there are two airport employees. I think they must work at a Rinnacar company who are like, their friends are holding them back or their other employees are holding them back because these guys are going to come to blows. And then one of them sucker punches the other one in the face. And his face starts bleeding. And then everyone lets them go. And then they are just two grown men having a not just like a, you know what, when you see like grown men fight, I'm not sure if you've seen the grown men fight. Not really.
Starting point is 00:14:45 They like grapple, there's lots of grappling. This isn't that. This is two men like amateur boxers trying to punch each other in the head. And they're like four feet from us, like making a wide arc because they're punching each other. And I'm like, Mariah is trying to watch my back while I'm like, type it into the key, because I don't want to get like hit,
Starting point is 00:15:03 but you know, by a stray punch in this fight. And no one is stopping them. No security in the airport, there's no security. There's people that work for the airlines that are just watching, no one's making a move to stop this in any way. And then finally tourists come and pull these guys off of each other,
Starting point is 00:15:21 and both of them are bleeding from their faces. This is the rentic heart people. These are, I think that I don't know how it's hurt spelled. Because they could be in the right. Yes. You will hurt. It was, it was wild. It's no one, no one was coming to got it.
Starting point is 00:15:39 Like everyone was just like, yeah, that's good. Every time I've seen like a Dulls fight, where it's like sad, it's like, they always, there's a lot of like open arms, like, what's up, like, what are you gonna do? What are you gonna do? And in their heads, you can tell they're both like, this is gonna be so cool. And then they go to punch and they like miss
Starting point is 00:15:54 and they fall down and then it is just like all grappling. Where it's all like four minutes of just like, this is the saddest fucking thing. And then that's where you somebody breaks it up. If no one, if you don't know, if you don't fight, you don't know how to fight. Everybody watches movies and they're like, I don't want to fight. This is gonna saddest fucking thing. And then eventually somebody breaks it up. If no one, if you don't know, if you don't fight, you don't know how to fight. Everybody watches movies and they're like, I don't want to fight.
Starting point is 00:16:08 This is gonna be amazing. And then they just get embarrassed. You know, you can tell in someone's voice that they're about to cry. I feel like that all real fights, when people are doing that, they're like, what? What?
Starting point is 00:16:18 What are you getting? Oh yeah, you fucking top guy. And you're like, you need a hug from your mom yesterday. There's nothing more embarrassing than being like a grown man fighting another, like two men fighting in public. It's like, it's like guys. Like what, you are setting, everyone has this expectation for you, and you are reinforcing that expectation. Like two men just punching each other in the head.
Starting point is 00:16:42 It's like, fuck, man, grow up. Speaking of growing up, let, man, grow up. So you're gonna grow up. Let's do some riddles. Fun. Yeah, that's what I would call growing up. So what used to be young man riddles is now old man puzzles. And that's James today.
Starting point is 00:16:54 And what do we have in store? So this is very cool. So a student of mine at I.O. at the end of our session of level three. So it's like eight weeks of class. They said that they love the podcast, and then they gave me this riddle book. And it's,
Starting point is 00:17:10 what did they, did they want their first name to be said? Their name is Evan, so I don't know if they, if they want their lesson to be said, but how they doing class? Well, they had me as a teacher, so they were fighting an uphill battle. Is Evan familiar with any of my imprev teams or like,
Starting point is 00:17:24 daily? Like my Harold team. I asked Evan if he knew Aaron, fighting an uphill battle. Is Evan familiar with any of my imprev teams or like, do you like my hair? I asked Evan if he knew Aaron Keith and he said, I maybe would know her if she ever got cast in something. Those were his words. Root, I'm gonna vote along you guys. Root, and then I was like, are you maybe familiar with Abel Rafay
Starting point is 00:17:42 and he said, oh yeah, come to Badger Big Fits. No, but Evan gave me this riddle book. And so the theme of this riddle book is Medieval Puzzles. Ooh, some of the... You know that piano sound? Or just medieval sounds here. The Medieval Piano sound? You know, like the...
Starting point is 00:18:01 Sir, I'm going to play the Medieval Piano forte. Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D math riddles that I was like, oh, no thanks. We're not gonna do this. Your favorite thing though. Maybe one of these days I'll like photo copy some of them and then make you guys do the visual math riddles. Oh, you want when you want Adel to quit? Yeah, I think it would be funny because the answer's like, the answer's for every math riddle, the answer's so unsatisfying because you have a bunch of numbers and it's like, the answer is 17
Starting point is 00:18:41 and you're like, what the fuck, it cares. That's where I started another podcast called, Hey, Hill, More, Come Work. Yeah, Hey're like, what the fuck, it cares. That's where I started another podcast called, hey, homework homework. Yeah, hey, it was just fucking stress dreams. What if we did start a podcast that was just us doing kids homework for them? That should be a Patreon tier. We'll just do your homework.
Starting point is 00:18:54 Yeah, so when we yell, Who else would use your teachers? What I yelled at you for having your kids listen earlier, bring them back, tell them we're gonna do their homework. In all sincerity, email us your homework. HRRpodcast.gima.com, we will do it on air. I'll do someone's homework. I'll do someone's homework.
Starting point is 00:19:10 I'll seduce your teacher. And I'll eat your fucking lunch. Your teachers will not listen to this, and I will say this right now, if you're in high school or college, and you have to write an essay, I will write it for you for $100. I'll do it for 99.
Starting point is 00:19:22 I'll do it for 99. I'll do it for 99. Oh, that it for 99. I'll do it for 99. That's a good deal. I can't go to your teacher to give you a name. I can't stress this enough. I will seduce your teachers. So. I don't care, age.
Starting point is 00:19:35 I don't care gender. I'll seduce your mother for teachers. Aaron will seduce your teachers for what you get to put a price on. For free. I'll confront your bullies. And that, Adelaide, I will haggle over writing paper for you. I would, I would love for that to be my job. James and I will write your papers, uh,
Starting point is 00:19:52 one set instead of time, oscillating who writes the sentence. Instead, did you guys ever have turnitin.com? Yeah. Going up. Uh, so Aaron and I, uh, many of a certain age had it. It was basically a website where you would submit
Starting point is 00:20:05 any paper that you wrote, and then anyone else in the country or whatever read submitted a paper, it would see if it was plagiarized against something else that had been, uh, thing. So I had a cousin who went to a small school in the country and they definitely never had anything on turnin'in.com. So I just plagiarized a whole paper from them
Starting point is 00:20:22 and put it in like, went on turn to the top and passed. And I was like, I cheated all the time in high school. But it was very funny because, it's very funny because I'm like, yeah, you built a fucking fool proof this up. It was so easy, so easy for me to cheat your system. Your cousin went to farm you? Farm you.
Starting point is 00:20:37 I also, but it was, there was a kid, one of the funniest experiences from my high school was in theater class. It was theater class. This is. One of the funniest experiences from my high school was in theater class. It was theater class. This is not a hard class to pass. We had a assignment to write a six page something,
Starting point is 00:20:52 like an essay, and it was, I think it was like a very open and you can do anything. Anyway, he chose to write his paper on Blade Runner for some reason, but he just plagued his essay on Blade Runner directly from the internet, but the essay wasn't long enough, so he just copied it, pasted it again. So it was like four pages, and he copied it, pasted it again, and our teacher read it, and then brought it, because no one expected it to teach it to read these,
Starting point is 00:21:16 and then he brought it into our class that we all had together, and it had a big red F on it, and it just said, Blancher is something. And then he slapped it down to the table. It was like, you're a plagiarist. I'm not gonna turn you in, but you should be ashamed of yourself. You get an F on this paper. And then the rest of us instant scoured through this paper.
Starting point is 00:21:33 We were like, man, what were you thinking? It wasn't even space-dried. It was like a three big spaces, and then the copy and paste red. And we were like, dude, you fucked up so bad. He's like, yeah, I know. Bladgerism. I'm bladger is, I definitely,
Starting point is 00:21:46 I definitely had to type up like a four-page report and it was three pages and then just like highlight and change the font size. Yeah, font, one bigger, margins a little smaller. Okay, so this is your riddle. The title of this riddle is Bartholona. Mm. And there's some quotes in this,
Starting point is 00:22:01 so I'm gonna read this in character. Oh, this won't do, This won't do it all! The Sinistial to the Count of Barcelona was a small, nervous man, and he was clearly flustered. What does the matter? The Sinistial's assistant, well used to his master's moods, managed to keep his voice patient, but he could not inject any concern. The Count is having a small personal dinner engagement night. Everything must be perfect, and protocol is so verifiable. Well, who is
Starting point is 00:22:30 attending us the assistant? It cannot be that troublesome. Oh, my! The count is expecting his father's brother-in-law, his father's father-in-law, his father-in-law's brother, and his brother-in-law's father. So there will be five, said the assistant, even allowing for a niceties of status that doesn't seem so stern. Oh no, that is not at all correct, said the sinisterly fanning himself. That would be fine, but that is the very most people that it could be. The count is expecting the very least. the very most people that it could be, the count is expecting the very least.
Starting point is 00:23:06 Question. The assistant appeared at him suspiciously. How many is that? One, two. The least would be nobody. No, it's- What's this supposed to- Wait, can you read the father-in-law that shit?
Starting point is 00:23:19 We need a paper. Okay. Do we need to write this down? Does anyone listening have a piece of paper? Well, we all know that. If you have a piece of paper that Aaron Cambara email as an HR podcast, you can see about that.
Starting point is 00:23:30 There's notepads over in the corner over there. So we all know that royal families often have deep, deep insides. Pockets. All those robes. So, okay, the count is expecting his father's brother-in-law. Okay, hold on. His father's brother-in-law.
Starting point is 00:23:50 His brother's father-in-law. His brother's father-in-law. His father-in-law's brother. Wait, brothers. His father-in-law's brother. And his brother-in-law's father. What's the third one? Okay.
Starting point is 00:24:04 Father's brother-in-law. Brother's father-in-law. Father-in-law's father. What's the third one? Uh, okay. Father's brother-in-law. Brother's father-in-law. Father-in-law's brother. And brother-in-law's father. Are they expecting Pauli Shor's hit son-in-law? Brother-in-law's father. No, they're expecting the chairman of the board. Is that Pauli Shor?
Starting point is 00:24:20 Oh, damn it. They're expecting, and this is all taking place in the bio-dom. The bio-dom in New Orleans? Fabibou Shrein, the bio-dom. Welcome to the bio-dom. The mud dogs want a bio-dom. It's awful. Father, I mean, so some of these could be the same people, right?
Starting point is 00:24:41 Well, yes. So he said, who is attending? And he said, five, and he said, five would be the most it could be, but he's expecting the very least. Brothers, father and law. So are they all the same people? It'd be two. Be the countess and or the count in just one person who fulfills all those roles. Just one person who fulfills all those roles. So I think the count is there. And then... What's the count's party, right?
Starting point is 00:25:09 Yeah, this is the party. Yes. It's a small personal dinner engagement tonight. Everything must be perfect and protocol is so variable. And then it's the father's brother-in-law, the brother's father-in-law, his father-in-law's brother, and his brother-in-law's father. Three. Two. One. No, it's his brother-in-law's father. Three, two.
Starting point is 00:25:25 One? No, it's three. Last off. It's three. It's three. Aaron, finally, it's okay. So since I'm not going to let you guys keep guessing numbers, so I'm going to have to get final answers on this one. And then I'll tell you if you're right. Two, two.
Starting point is 00:25:38 Your final answer is two. Yeah. Why is it two? Show your work. I'm sure. Aaron, show me a no card. It's this little chart, and I know this won't make sense to anyone but me.
Starting point is 00:25:49 Okay, that does not make sense. Well, Erin is showing me an L and five dots. It looks like hydroclinistics. That doesn't make sense. What's your reason? Explain to yourself. Because they can be, they can be the same person.
Starting point is 00:26:01 Yes, they can be the same person. So your father, my father's brother-in-law, can be my brother-in-law's father. Yes. And my father-in-law's brother. Uh-huh. So do you want to revise your answer? It's not one.
Starting point is 00:26:24 Maybe it's one, Maybe it's one. Because I guess he could be the brother's father-in-law. So it's one meaning the... Was it a count? It's just the count. The count is all those things to himself. Just one man. The family tree is naughty and assumes marriage between cousins is not forbidden. That's what I said.
Starting point is 00:26:42 Yeah. So when you...oh man.

Pezins? Yes, Pezins. She experienced times, what's the, who? Oh, come on, man. Fucking me to the halfway, but what are they? What are they called the people who stood? Groundlings. The groundlings, yes.
Starting point is 00:38:42 Oh, you're talking about the LA comedy club? No, no. Will Ferro? No, that's Sunday's Christian week. What does it say? The Sunday company is. All right, anyway. A wise man's bluff.
Starting point is 00:38:56 Ancient legend dictated that unless the Lord retained a certain number of as advisors, the town would suffer disaster. Unfortunately, that number was clouded in vague language, and the wise men invariably disagreed with one another on every single topic under the sun. Simply greeting them with good morning would lead to hours of impassioned argument, asking them to agree on how many of their own number could safely retired was utterly absurd. The legend insisted that the wise men, I'm sorry, the legend insisted that the wise you must keep around you at all times, without them famine and pestilence will descend.
Starting point is 00:39:38 They shall guard you by seeing all eventualities. In awe? Wait, what's up now? Are the wise? The wise you must keep around you at all times. Without them, famine and pestilence will descend. They shall guard you by singing all eventualities in all manners of observation. Thus, let there always be seven blind of both eyes to see where sight cannot. Two blind of one eye to see in light and shadow.
Starting point is 00:40:12 Four with sight. Three to blind of one. Yes, two blind of one eye to see in light and shadow. Four with sight in both eyes to clearly perceive danger. And nine that see with one eye for the sake of clarity. What is the smallest number of wise men? Another one of these fucking things, two, one, one, required one and he has 50 fucking eyes. Can you read the numbers again?
Starting point is 00:40:39 Yes, so it's a wise 50 eyes. All right. Thus, let there be always, I'm sorry, let there always be seven blind of both eyes to see where sight cannot, two blind of one eye to see in light and shadow, four with sight in both eyes to clearly perceive danger, in nine that see with one eye, but the sake of clarity. I mean, anyone who sees with two eyes to also see with one eye. 16. Oh, 16.
Starting point is 00:41:15 The eyes have it. Ha ha ha ha ha. Aaron, you were absolutely right and so adult by the same token, you were absolutely right. Because you're both on the right track. Being blind of one eye does not preclude the other. You just need to totally blind people
Starting point is 00:41:32 and the people that see 16 wise men in total. According to the prophecy, you need seven who are blind and nine that see with one eye, but there's no requirement that one eye preclude the other. So the two who are blind in one eye and the four that see with both eyes can both be included among that initial. So are we bumping?
Starting point is 00:41:49 Who are the people who are bumping? The wise men were getting out of it. So you got to get 16 out of there. So you're basically, I mean, I really hope that we have good social programs in place because you are, I think, kicking someone I'd people out of a job. And speaking of one eye people, I want to see a scene. Oh. The two of you are two wise people in an ancient kingdom, and you're trying to
Starting point is 00:42:15 vie for the top spot. The king can only keep one of you, and you're trying to show your pros. It eats says what? It eats says what? And you said it again. I came. She said it's twice.
Starting point is 00:42:28 She said it twice. Well, let's not be so hasty. Continue your battle of wits. Okay. So... Wait, I have a knock-knock took for you. You start. Knock-knock.
Starting point is 00:42:44 Who's there? took for you. Uh, you start. Knock-knock. Who's there? Uh, go for it. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,. Okay, so let me take my abacus here and did it do it? Okay, you know that was you did get one over on me you got one over on me and I I feel like a little bit of a fool I would like to um oh I would like to offer you and as as a a gift to ease the tension some up dog. as a gift to ease the tension, some up dog. See it? Would you say it? Would you like some up dog? See it.
Starting point is 00:43:31 I don't care for up dog. Ooh! But what's up? With you? Ah, man. One of us is the Joker at the end of this, and one of us is the Wise Men. Oh, okay. No, Joker won an Oscar.
Starting point is 00:43:44 So... The Wise Men won. I had something fun to say. Oh, okay. Oh, Chokka won an Oscar. The wise men won. I had something fun to say. Oh yes, maybe? Mama Mia, fuck you. That's an abacus. And here's an abacus. Do me.
Starting point is 00:43:58 See that girl? You, what's your name? Mark. What's up Mark? You shall be my new What's up Doc? You shall be my new representation Not much about the fucko Huh?
Starting point is 00:44:14 See I won! This one is called Alquin. Alquin the abit of Marenmouth Abbey was great Hold on. What's that phrase? Alquin. Alquin, the abit of Mount Mouth Abbey, was greatly- Hold on. What's that phrase? Alquin, the abit of Mount Morthier. Baltic say Baltimore. Baltimore.
Starting point is 00:44:35 Alquin, the abit of Baltimore Abbey, was greatly fond of intellectual challenges. And it'd become known far and wide as a fierce scholar and teacher. One afternoon he called his students into his office and indicated to them five numbered sacks, which he informed them, held grain, five sacks. I'm going to beat your student, the sack of rice, the first one. Baltimore, you're as done with the rice. Pay attention, he said, each of these sacks contains a different amount of grain. Taken together, one in two, weigh 12 pounds. Is this going to be how many limit, like,
Starting point is 00:45:11 what's the fewest amount of fucking sacks? Similarly, two and three together, weigh 13.5 pounds. Number 3 and 4 weigh 11.5 pounds, and the last 2 sacs 4 and 5 collectively weigh just 8 pounds. Finally, it will be useful to know that sacs 1, 3 and 5 altogether weigh 16 pounds. What is the weight of each sack? Wow, that sucks. Adults have not read anything down. I'll do it. I'm just gonna have to be quiet. I can't make jokes or talk while I figure this out.
Starting point is 00:45:54 Okay, so, Adal once again, Aaron is doing all of the work. And you are here to make jokes. It's almost something something Goldman Sachs. Okay, let's, interesting. What else do you have on that? How many Sachs? Well, Lawrence Taylor will probably wait like 235, a sack king of the NFL. Ayes, that king of the NFL. Famously in any given Sunday. Uh-huh. What else?
Starting point is 00:46:16 Sach Jack, Sachs be nimble, Sachs be quick. What about wait, wait, wait, wait, what is the wait of each sack? Wait, wait, don't sack me. Uh, what else? Do wait, wait, don't sack me, it would be great. Okay, add that. Okay, add that. Wait, wait, wait, don't sack me. We're gonna see you see this as NPR's, wait, wait, don't sack me.
Starting point is 00:46:34 Welcome to another episode of Weight, Weight, don't sack me. The show where I vibe for my job. Hey, 42. Please, don't do this, they're gonna sack me. 42. Please. I have to generate good content. Please. Please, Jake Utler. So, four has to be less than seven. A three is something point five. Four is always less than seven. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, don't sack me. The exact, exact number four has to weigh less than seven pounds. Yes.
Starting point is 00:47:08 You said three is three point five. No, three is something point five. Yes. No. Three is not. Three is the only one that's not point five. Oh, the rest have point five in it, even one in five. Even one in five.
Starting point is 00:47:22 Even one, even one. Mm-hmm, even one in five. Okay, well five. Even one, even one. Even one in five. Okay, well then. What are in these sax? Then four has to be six points. Right. Four has to be six point five. Three is the only whole number.
Starting point is 00:47:34 Three is the only whole number. Yes. Uh. So I'll go over this one more time just for everyone at home to fucking blow their minds. Out. Each of these sax contains a different amount of grain, taken together one and two,
Starting point is 00:47:47 weight 12 pounds. So there is a .5 in each one of those. Two and three, weight 13.5 pounds, three and four, weight 11.5 pounds, and four and five, weight just eight pounds. And if you do one, three and five together,
Starting point is 00:48:07 that's 16 pounds, baby. So medieval riddles are just fucking math equations? Yeah, I mean, I think that we, the medieval aspect of this was some stuff that you made me change to Baltimore. So this is just a Baltimore. I stand by that. It's a Baltimore Orioles sacriental.
Starting point is 00:48:26 So yeah, actually this is just a Baltimore or stand by that. It's the Baltimore Orioles sacriental. So yeah, actually this is just a riddle of sacs weighing different things. That's all this is. Aaron's beautiful mining it over here. Aaron is beautiful mining it. I know I'm being so done right now and not doing an easy way of going about this. I'm just using my...
Starting point is 00:48:43 I speak right into that, Mike. I'm using my scattered part of my brain to figure this out. I just need a few more minutes. I really want to get this though. So continue to make content and I'll be over here. All right. Do you want me to give you this? Wait, I think I, I'm thinking I'm close to something. Okay, okay. Okay. Okay. Well, we'll, we'll air it.
Starting point is 00:48:59 Stop talking to Aaron. I'm not talking to Aaron. She can only do one thing at a time. She's close to something. And so we're gonna just let her pass. And while Aaron is doing that, I'm gonna give you interview. No, I'm gonna give you you are so fond of changing these riddles. So it's Alquin, the abbot of Marenmtheir Abbey. So now I want you to modernize that. So Abbey, that's kind of an old-timey thing. Maran Matier Abbey is kind of an old-timey thing. So what does this person's name can't be Alquin anymore?
Starting point is 00:49:31 Okay, it's not Alquin, it's Al Bundy. It's not an Abbey, it's a Castello. Oh no. Oh. So Maran Matier Abbey? Maran Matier, how's it spelled? N-A-R, in the O- Abby. Mayor Mathieu? How's it spelled? Uh, in A, R, in the OU. I don't fucking, I, Metroid gotcha.
Starting point is 00:49:50 Al Bundy, Metroid of Castello. Well, of, but it's, Mayor Mathieu, Abby. Okay. But so the, what is Abby replaced with? Abby, um, who's the other one in Broad City? There's Ilana. Ilana? So this would be,bundi, the...
Starting point is 00:50:08 Metroid? No, no, the Abbott. What's Abbott? Castello. Oh, Albundi, the Castello of Metroid Ilana. Very nice. That's pretty good. That's way more modern.
Starting point is 00:50:18 And that's something that the kids can understand. Aaron. I have a question. Oh, no. Are any of them the same way the same amount? No, they do. They do not weigh the same amount. None of them do.
Starting point is 00:50:28 No. Is 3 9 pound? Okay. All right. Back in your work. Back in your work. I have another one. Here we go.
Starting point is 00:50:38 Okay. You want to give me another hand. No, no, please. No, I don't want to give you another hand. Yeah, give me one more. I don't know how to give a hint here. I can just, well. No, I don't want to give you another hint. Yeah, give me one more. I don't know how to give a hint here. I can just, well. No, I, uh.
Starting point is 00:50:48 Here, you won't, I would like to tell you how to answer this question. Okay, yeah. So here's how to answer. Considered together, each of the sacks is weighed twice, except number three, which is weighed three times. All, add all the totals together and subtract twice the weight of one and two combined and also twice the weight of four and five combined and you'll get 21, which is three times the weight of three.
Starting point is 00:51:13 And it's also blackjack. Seven. Okay, all right, then wait, can then give me a second. I'm going to figure out the rest. From there, you can easily substitute to find the values. So yes, the weight of... I'd run out of paper. The weight of three is seven and now Aaron is going to run back and get more paper. Let's see. At all. I'll go in the abit of Marimathea to Abby was greatly fond of intellectual challenges and it been known far and wide as a fierce scholar and teacher.
Starting point is 00:51:39 When you are known far and wide, what do you think that people will know you as? A fierce let's see. A fierce scholar and teacher. I'm gonna be a fierce shitter. Buddy, we gotta talk about that. Baby shitter. We gotta talk about how you're a fierce shitter. That's not a compliment.
Starting point is 00:52:00 Doctors say you got maybe three shits left. You gotta call that, you gotta call that. You have three shits left. You got to call me the concept. You have three shits to live with. What? You're like Eddie Murphy with the leaves falling from the tree. I only have so many words. Then I have to die. And then you have to shit.
Starting point is 00:52:14 James, you consider yourself now that you quit your job. Do you consider yourself a content creator? Oh boy, that's got, yeah. We got to start using that. We got to start tossing that label around. I don't think I can be, I don't think I can consider myself a content creator until I'm a contestant on a 90 day fiance.
Starting point is 00:52:30 What's that show that you love us blind? Well, yeah. Every time that there's any love island, love is blind, any reality show. It's people who want more followers. But it's also like influencer. Yeah, their job is influencer, content creator, marketing manager, sales manager.
Starting point is 00:52:45 Can I start calling you a content creator? Yeah, I'd say that is true. I'm very content with the creations that I make. But instead of saying it, I'll write it down to late one, all right? I was working in my tent. Wait, maybe this is right. What do you call yourself? Declarice of the podcaster?
Starting point is 00:53:00 Mm-hmm. Okay. I'll start one. One is one. Sorry. One equals 5.5, two equals 6.5, three equals 7, four equals 4.5, five equals 3.5. All wrong. Is what I would say if it was opposite day,
Starting point is 00:53:15 Aaron, you got them all exactly correct. Can you go over how to do that again? I'm so sorry that I didn't know how to do that. So consider it, okay, so consider it together. Each of the sacks is weight twice, except three, which is weight three times. Yeah. So add all the totals together
Starting point is 00:53:32 and subtract twice the weight of one and two, combined, and twice the weight of four and five combined, and you'll get 21, which is three times the weight of three. I can't express enough. I had the thought to add, I did add them all together and then I, then I unwrapped. I would never have thought of how to do that, but hearing the explanation of it makes me think,
Starting point is 00:53:52 yes, that is how you would do that. And Adel, what do you have to say for yourself? Oh, moments ago I was saying, I can't express enough, how stressful these are ittles are. No, I actually, I really might, truly anytime you're reading and you start tossing out like, you know, box number one, had 42 centimeters is just like my brain glosses over and I, my eyes roll back in my head. The last riddle, that last riddle that I read, we were still in the preamble. We hadn't even gotten
Starting point is 00:54:19 to the riddle part and that'll go, you were like, like Algonquin de Bombom of Merckermorne, Binkibop. What is this, the Swedish chef? I'm from Ferner, Florida. Big, angry, gay, bear, shabur, David. I promise you, Adel, I promise you this one different. I promise you you'll like this one a little bit better. I also promise you right now, and I will promise this. I didn't read this ahead of time.
Starting point is 00:54:40 I'm ready. I'm ready. This one's called Three Boatman. The master of a small marina on Saint Mark's basin in Venice found himself faced with particularly trying problem. Some equipment had been stolen, and the witnesses all disagreed vehemently with each other.
Starting point is 00:55:00 One of the men was telling the truth, but the boatmaster could not tell which one it was. Stripped of all the hand waving. You go, go take the boat and you say we're going to tear this boat in half and each person gets a half of the boat and whoever goes, no. Take my hat. Take my baby. Stripped of all the hand waving and flowering insults.

Starting point is 00:55:54 Biddy-tsy is lying. When I hear medieval, I have to say, I think of England. Every riddle you said has been French, Italian, or Spanish-span. They had the Renaissance too, my guy. I know, but many people- Open your fucking mind, not me. No. They had horses and all the France.
Starting point is 00:56:11 Okay, do you? Arigio. Minicius lying. Okay, I gotta hear it. Are you doing it? How far up the egg do the France go? I need you. Arigio.

He should, or two of them he can't trust. Two of them are bad and one is good. So, uh, t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t lying. Can you read what they said again? Sons accent. So man number one says man number two is lying.
Starting point is 00:57:07 Great. Man number two says man number three is lying. Great. Man number three says one and two are both lying and one's telling the truth. Is this like the let's me get deal with it all? It kind of is like that but but there are three people. He says they're both not telling the truth. He says the other two men are both lying. Okay. Yes. Number three. Cipola.
Starting point is 00:57:31 B. Benizzi? Oh, all their names are Regio Benizzi Cipola, ABC. Look at that. What do you think B? Give me a second. Okay. Always.
Starting point is 00:57:46 B is saying that Cipala is lying and Cipala is the one who's saying the other two minutes both lying. I want to see a scene. Oh, because then he would say that's not possible. Can anybody hear me? Yeah, B. B is my answer. Aaron's answer is B, and Adel, when you know C is seen. I just realized I'm locked in a coffin.
Starting point is 00:58:10 I died, and this is my hell. Participate! Locked in a coffin. Be like me and go into this horrible place unless you've ever read. If you were dead in a coffin, you'd be like, Oh man, is this thing locked? Somebody locked this coffin. Why?
Starting point is 00:58:27 Weird. Why would we be able to lock a coffin? Just in case. I mean, the only reason to lock a coffin is if you think I might not be dead. Exactly. No, hey. Someone thought he might be dead, not be dead.
Starting point is 00:58:41 Lock the coffin. No, we thought you might be giants. Well, I have a question about the coffins Are they locked from the inside or the outside because locked from the inside Your loved ones don't want someone robbing your grave You have to give them permission to get in lock from the outside. What the fuck are we doing? Hey, you know, why do you lock the coffin for the inside though? Hey, Anthony's an asshole, right? I think I'm done with him.
Starting point is 00:59:06 You put a key. You put a key. Okay. Right? I think so. I wanna see a scene. Okay. Well, boy, now I wanna see several scenes.

Love it. And we find out that you've been lying to us this whole time. Excuse me, Captain? Oh, those are nice pitchforks.

Do the thing that guys do when they fight start to cry and You fight you want to cry and go back to the show. I'll get you, man. You fight me, man. Earlier, when I said I want to know where the shuffleboard is, you took a deck of cards and said, Bord, yeah? Okay, yes, that's true.
Starting point is 01:00:56 That was very funny. That was, I could be quite wise, but back of the day, if I did something like that, look, I assure you, I assure you you are on a cruise ship. And this couple fed up with this mansion and against, have put him in a casket, buried him six feet on the ground, and locked the casket. We cut to this man waking up inside the casket. Oh, this again.

Starting point is 01:01:34 He's in a coffin. It's the time right before this time that he's waking up in a coffin. Oh. Oh. Oh. Okay. You're in a coffin.
Starting point is 01:01:44 At least you didn't shit yourself this day. See? Glad I asked. All right, so Aaron, you think that Binnitzi is the one who's telling the truth? Yeah, I don't know. Saying that Cipala is lying. So... Wait, wait, wait, no.
Starting point is 01:01:59 Wait. Mm-hmm, mm-hmm, mm-hmm. So only one man can be telling the truth and the other two must be lying. That means. So, give me one more second. One says it two is lying, two says it three is lying, three says one and two are lying. Yes.
Starting point is 01:02:16 So how, let's see, boom, boom. So, no, because if C is definitely lying because if both of those guys were lying that that would mean B is telling the truth Which means C is lying So C is it's not C. Well, let me not see where it's me. I need a Jones Nazi, where? It's me, Indiana Jones. Oh, I'll do you, I'll do you in Hitler. You'll not see.

Starting point is 01:03:06 Great. Bitsy, he's kind of Swarley looking, he's got thick curly black hair, big mustache. Two marios. It's simple. He's a little bit different. I would say he's got more of a Swarley look, very Mediterranean, big, black, curly hair, and a big mustache. All through telling the truth. Yes. All through telling the truth.

Starting point is 01:03:39 You love the circle. I only know what that means. Shubi. I only know what that means, do means. Memes through me. So, the answer. No, beams. Memes through me. So the answer, no. The answer is Cipola. No.
Starting point is 01:03:51 Yes. So it has to be Cipola because if only one person is telling the truth and the first two statements are the same, that means it can't be either one of them it has to be Cipola who has the only statement that is unique. the first two statements Are the same well. Yeah, so they're both saying that one other person is lying. I'm saying one other person is lying I see one person saying one other person is lying and the other one saying both people
