Our first animal is swans.
Mmm.
I am so tired of swimming.
Just my little feet just da da da da da da da da da.
Peter, you look unwell.
That's bad because typically, you know, I look beautiful on the surface but underneath the water
My feet are going a mile a minute, but I I feel like my feathers are falling out
I feel like there's bags under my eyes. I feel like my bill is
disgusting. Carl come swim over here. Peter looks like particularly bad today, right?
So graceful so graceful Peter looks like particularly bad today, right? Da da da, da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da Oh my god! Tiffany was saying it's really bad. Tiff, what's going on? Tiff, get back away. To three swan distances from Peter.
Uh, Peter, I feel like...
I guess it's none of my business and we can all eat what we want to eat, which is mostly fish.
And worms.
You guys eat fish?
Okay, I'm starting to see.
Fuck!
Yes, um...
Peter, I'm sorry. Yes.
Peter, I notice that you, when we do lunch,
you usually go over to the garbage can in the park.
Yeah. Like yesterday I saw you eat a monster energy drink can.
Yeah.
And I'm just wondering if that's maybe the best for your insides.
Um, I can't really speak to that. I haven't done the research, but I feel like, you know,
like six months ago when that kid chased me around
after I hissed at him and he held me down
and shoved Sour Patch Kids down my gullet.
I feel like since then,
I feel like my diet's been really bad.
I feel like I can't, I have so much energy I have to burn
if I want to fall asleep. It's just been really, I don't know I can't I have so much energy I have to burn if I want to fall asleep. It's just been really I don't know
I don't know how much longer I have to live
So I've really remember that day because the parents and the park ranger thought it was Mikey who did that and then they killed
Mikey in front of us. Mm-hmm
for
Retaliating against the boy when it was you who bit the boy. I bit the boy
I'll say it. I bit the boy and Mikey bit the boy. I'll say it, I bit the boy.
And then Mikey bit the dust.
Tiff, can I talk to you, uh, swan over here?
Whee!
La da dee dum, la da dee dum.
It's like they're skating on water.
Look, I didn't want to say it,
but I've had this suspicion for the last six months,
especially after Peter bit the boy.
I think that this guy is a goose.
I don't think he's a swan.
What?
He's mean, he's nasty, he eats out of the trash.
I think, you know how it was for the longest time,
it was just me, you and Mikey?
The three swans.
The three swans in the park.
When we swim, we say,
Zadadadadadadada baby.
Swan, swan.
And then one day Peter showed up and he was like,
I'm a swan from another school.
Yeah.
And that's why I look like I'm a Canadian swan.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I think he might be a goose.
I don't know.
Do we have a way of testing?
I don't know.
And to be frank, I think he looks pretty bad for a goose then, too.
I think he looks like a sick goose.
Yeah.
All right, let's go.
Let's go test it.
Let's go. Da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da I'm thinking your diet is maybe so poor. What are some swan foods that you enjoy,
like ideal, perfect day,
what are some swan foods that you would enjoy eating?
Oh, well worms, number one with a bullet.
That shouldn't be number one.
That's number one is worms for you.
I guess two would be-
And I guess I didn't see you eat that bullet.
Yeah, I was just in a real low point.
Oh, so it's worms in a bullet, like a side salad.
Yeah, yes.
Like the song,
Worms in bullet had a fight,
Worms not bullets out of sight.
Huh, yeah.
It's one song.
Number three would be three worms,
four would be four worms,
five would be five worms.
Huh.
Six would be another butter bar,
seven would be seven worms, eight would be eight worms, nine would be nine worms five would be five worms huh six would be another butter bar seven would be seven worms eight would be
eight worms that would be nine worms ten ass.
Okay JPC I'm ready I bought a rocket I'm going into space to
try and talk to the space angels to release Aaron back to us and
I've learned as many languages as I can through babble just in
case you know the angels speak a different language.
Yeah, and we don't know what Space Angel,
like you know how like in Star Wars,
it's just called basic, that's like, it's like,
you know, it's English basically, that's what we hear.
I don't know what the Space Angel basic is, right?
So it's like, you gotta be prepared with Babel
to learn as many, because of course,
Babel doesn't offer Space Angel,
no one's ever learned it.
No one's ever spoken, yet.
They just found that Rosetta Stone.
They just uncovered part of it.
I think we're getting close, but.
The best way to learn a language, immersion,
which is why I'm going to space,
living where a language is spoken and using it every day.
But if that's not in the cards this year,
you can still learn a language the second best way,
and that's with Babbel.
Yeah, you gotta be a better you in 2024.
The science-backed language learning app Babbel actually works.
Don't pay hundreds of dollars for private tutors or waste hours on apps that don't
really help you speak the language.
Babbel's quick 10-minute lessons are handcrafted by over 200 language experts to help you start
speaking the language in as little as three weeks.
And Babbel's designed by real people for real conversations.
And that will definitely come in handy when you get in your real rocket,
go up to real space and talk to those real space angels who are holding Aaron.
I don't know if they're captive, but like the nice captive, like guests,
they're holding Aaron guest.
I love Babbel because their courses are so convenient and they actually help
you with real life conversation skills.
I have used Babbel and I've used it many times
while traveling to communicate to people,
even if I'm not fluent in any language,
it does actually just feel way nicer
to be able to like say and understand basic phrases
in a foreign language so that people don't think
that you're just like a, I don't know,
a person who gave no effort before exploring their country.
Locals appreciate it.
Yes.

It's a common swan phrase.
Swan, swan!
Yep, just like that. I'd like you to say, what's that about?
What's up with that?
Huh.
What's up with that?
No, you didn't really say about. I was really kind of looking to hear...
Oh, um.
Because a lot of swans pronounce about in a certain way, and I just wanted to...
Okay, uh, what's that about?
Hmm.
Huh.
Not quite...
Not quite the swan way to say it.
Oh, and can I tell you, worm poutine?
Mmm, mmm, mmm.
Ugh, I hate this.

Oh, um, well that's Tom Sawyer by Rush who I think that swans, I think all swans
love Rush. Rush is a Canadian rock band, is that correct? No, it's a Canadian prog band. Peter,
you can't hang out with us anymore. What? Why? Because I'm dying? We think that you're a goose
and we think that you came in here, you bit that kid, you got- no, Peter. You got our dear friend killed.
Well, we didn't really like Mikey because all swans are kind of petty pieces of shit,
so we're kind of always in c- we didn't really care so much when Mikey got killed.
Friend of me.
Yeah, yeah, friend of me.
We think it's time for you to go, Peter.
We think it's time for you to migrate on, leave our little pond.
We don't migrate, do we? Do swans migrate? I mean, we don't, we our little pond we don't migrate do you
do swans swans don't migrate we I mean we don't we collectively do we don't
migrate Peter you hear yourself right the jig is up no yes hang out with the
other dirty bird you dirty bird what you go find a duck to suck we don't care
what you do what you do eat brunch with a pidin
We don't care. Okay, you do. You know what takes ball of cotton off the top of my head. I am a goose
I found a cotton ball and I thought you know what now's the time to change your fortune
Now's your time to not be a goose but to be a beautiful
change your fortune. Now's your time to not be a goose but to be a beautiful, elegant swan with those necks to die for.
But you classist bourgeois pigs can't stand to see somebody
elevate themselves, can you?
Okay, Tiff, I don't know if this is a plus to you, but as soon as
he took the cotton ball off, it was like the language. I couldn't understand a word.
I can't hear a word you're saying.
It's saying.
So, Aaron and JPC, I think it's canon now. Geese are Canadian and swans are French.
Oh yeah. Oh yeah, a swan is a French bird.
You know there's obviously a crossover with French-Canadian.
Did you know the word swan is actually French for goose?
It's the same bird, it's a different word.
Linguistics.
