Starting point is 00:00:07 What happens when three buffoons give life advice, explore on realistic situations, and give random topics more thought than they probably deserve? It's the spitballers podcast with Andy, Mike, and Jason. Hey! What? What? There it is. There it is. I got the layup today, boys.
Starting point is 00:00:34 There it was. You were a real... donkey there. It's the last skat. I... Oh, that's great news. I think he just killed it. I felt like I got the layup because today on the show, our draft is the most annoying sounds.
Starting point is 00:00:51 So I feel like I had a quick pathway to... How dare you say that about our mule friends? Our mule friends. Yeah, I mean, I didn't know what sound I was going to make. Apparently, I went to... At least you went for it. The sound effect was full go. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:01:10 You know, we're drafting the most annoying sounds. I wanted to set the table, and I think I did. We have. I'm seeing the owl is updating us that he had a donkey take a dump in his front yard last night. No, you didn't. Of course he did. He lives in. There's wild donkeys out there.
Starting point is 00:01:26 They take huge dumps too. What, did you watch it? Like you saw it happen live or you found the dump. I got up to go to my car this morning and found a big pile. That was me. Oh, yeah. That was me. Impressive.
Starting point is 00:01:37 It's been in bulk season. I haven't gone in a while, and I came by your house and thought I'd leave you a little treat. He's going to think this is a donkey. That's just crazy. For people listening, they're like, where does owl live? Right. Where you can just wake up and it's like, that's a donkey dump right in my front yard. He lives in a neighborhood.
Starting point is 00:01:56 That's the shock. I can drive to my house from here faster than you can get to yours. Oh, my gosh. But you want to know what I don't have on my front yard donkey dumps. I'm just saying I'm not out in the boonies anywhere. It's the boonies, but there's a freeway that's a direct shot there because that freeway needs to connect us to our friends to the north of Arizona. And then you guys were like, what if we just, what if we're like right in the middle of desert? Fun fact, Al also ran over 10 families of Avalino once.
Starting point is 00:02:24 That's true. That's true because he lives in the middle of the desert. You know, look, everybody listening, you've been on a road trip before. You've gone between major cities where there's nothing for hours. And then every now and then there's an outlet mall. You know what I mean? Like you're just like, oh, there's all these shops that are supposed to be way cheaper. People could drive hours. So once upon a time where owl lives, there was an outlet mall there.
Starting point is 00:02:52 And then they decided to put some houses by it. But they did not move out the donkeys. No, they kept. You have to herd the donkeys out before you build a neighborhood. Oh, man. I love making fun of where Owl lives. It's like an infestation. See, aren't you happy that I open the show with that,
Starting point is 00:03:06 Neon? Would you rather? Is this Real Life? And we're drafting the most annoying sounds on today's episode of the spitballers. Thank you for joining us. Thank you for following the show, leaving your reviews, some easy ways you can help support this independent podcast. We appreciate you.
Starting point is 00:03:22 Let's kick it off. Would you rather? All right. We have a would you rather question coming in from our Patreon page. that darling kid says, when driving, would you rather have no ability to know the current time or no ability to know your current speed? And there's no loopholes, no, you know, autopilot. So you can't know your speed or you cannot know the time. Okay, so obviously both are important when you're traveling to a destination.
Starting point is 00:04:00 I mean, sometimes time doesn't matter because you're just going to the grocery store or whatever. It doesn't matter what time you get there. But a lot of times you're going to work. Got to be there by eight. You're going to, you know, the school play. You got to be there by 645 or whatever. So that's important. And obviously, speed limit is important.
Starting point is 00:04:19 You don't want to get pulled over. You don't want to be driving poorly. Let me start the question, Mike, with how in tune at this point in time are you with your speed on the road? Like how, like if you had to guess it at all times, do you feel like you'd be within a few miles? I think I could be within five. I feel like I could too. I would be shocked if any of us who have driven for half of our lives would not be within five on any of our guesses at any time. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:50 So we're pretty, like not knowing your speed, if it comes down to five mile an hour difference in either direction, is irrelevant. No, because if you're going 50 in a 45 and you're like, you're like, no, I'm going. I'm going a certain amount. How would it be over? It wouldn't bother me at all. So what you're saying is if you think you're going 46 in a 40 and you're off by 5 and you're going 51. Yeah, that's a problem. You'll get pulled over.
Starting point is 00:05:19 But that means you're off by more than 5 because you were trying to go 40. No, he was trying to go 46 and a 40. So he was off by 5. He was 51. I didn't think I was going to. Why were you trying to go 46 and a 40? That's your problem to begin with. What are you talking?
Starting point is 00:05:31 What are you driving a 40? If I didn't know the. No, what do you drive right now? No, no, no, let me just answer the question. If I didn't know, because I couldn't read it, I would always try to go the exact speed limit. That's what my point was. That makes sense. Then at worst, I'm off five in either direction.
Starting point is 00:05:47 I cannot get a ticket. I have taught my children that going the exact speed limit is a danger because it is dangerous. All the cars around you are driving faster than you and needing to overtake you. So I would feel safe to speed up then if I had a bunch of cars going fast. Yeah, I mean, I guess really you're totally alone. By the way, I did confirm with your family that your little scenario with your son learning to drive was as traumatizing as you described on this podcast. Yeah. Has he driven since then?
Starting point is 00:06:18 He is driven, but I have to make him drive now. He doesn't. And every time it's like you want. All because you couldn't control your bowels. Yeah, I would say mostly because I couldn't control my bowels. You got progressively more desperate as the drive went along. and then it became more intense for him. At least 10% is my decision to have him drive when I knew this could be a situation where I got to speed up.
Starting point is 00:06:45 That part was on me. The others were on my battles. But yeah, I mean, and then I do check the clock a lot because we're a family five with a lot of obligations. So it is common and frequent that we are running late. I guess what I... Yeah, but that's not. the clock's fault. Here's what's funny about the clock.
Starting point is 00:07:06 Part of the question. You cannot really do anything about it. I don't know if I see that it looks like I'm, you know, it's... I'm 10 minutes away and I'm going to be two minutes late. Okay. That gas pedal gets a little heavy. Yesterday I was 20 miles away from someplace and my ETA said I would be there three minutes late. I tried my best to get there on time.
Starting point is 00:07:36 I got there one, two minutes late. Oh, you didn't try your best then? No, like, because when you actually break down the truth about going that fast and how much time you're actually making up, it's fractions. It's not a lot. You guys don't go fast enough. No. I'm telling you, I shave off five minutes of every ETA I've ever driven in my life.
Starting point is 00:07:57 Not on surface streets. You're dependent on other cars. No, no, no, not on surface streets. Freeway driving, I agree. You can improve your time. Yeah. Yeah, you can. And lower your odds of survival.
Starting point is 00:08:06 But, yeah, it'd be like the amount of that you are, the amount of trouble and peril that you are bringing into the world versus saving five minutes. Leave five minutes earlier. Well, that is, yeah, I do, I do like being early. Like you guys are, are you early people? Are you late people? I, we're usually 10 minutes early people. I am, I am. Yeah, I am.
Starting point is 00:08:30 You with your family is not an early person. I am an on-time early person. You guys should, like, having worked with me for long enough, you know I am an on-time person. My family, not so much. So then are you in panic? It's, is it painful? It must be excrucied. No, it is the worst.
Starting point is 00:08:50 I can relate a lot because I do not like being late to places. It is, it is the worst. It's an indictment on you. Yes. It didn't matter enough or whatever. And it's like, usually it goes something like this. like finish your hair already, you know, like in the house, like just it's, I think. I mean, look, it's not, I've had too many of those.
Starting point is 00:09:12 Now I just sit quiet. I mean, like, and I go, we really need to go. What I really need to go. And then you put the GPS in. You're like, and we're 15 minutes late. My usual, my usual family, you know, if if the girl's side of my family is involved, we are going to put that GPS in and we are going to be. minutes late and we will arrive five minutes early my man let's go but you're not making a 15
Starting point is 00:09:38 minutes that's a slight exaggeration but it's not as massive it's not as massive as you believe yes you can't make up 15 minutes oh man how many miles away would you have to most most it has to be like a 50 mile trip most of our trips are like you know 30 to 30 minutes to an hour like I don't go anywhere nearby with the kids everything is far enough A 30 minute time. He's going to make up half of it. Well, no, that's what I said. That's, that's exaggerate. Even an hour trip, you're not making a 15. Well, you know.
Starting point is 00:10:10 Yes, I am. No, you're not. On the freeway, you go like 75, so he's going 150 to make up half the time. Yeah, like there's, there is, rules of physics. I will take not knowing my speed, because if there is variability anyways, where the speed of traffic matters more than the number exactly and my experience in driving, I'm definitely, I feel like I'm going to get where I need to go, how fast I need to go all the time. And I'd like to know the time. I really like shaving numbers off. So I enjoy the time.
Starting point is 00:10:39 I look at the time a lot more than the speed limit. Clearly, I'm going, I'm going to know my speed. Because for time, it's, yeah, when you get in the car, you go, I'm going to check. Now I'm obsessing over it. But as long as you either leave on time and you get there on time or you, or, you, or, you, or, you leave on time and you end up late. Yeah, I mean, no, I, I, I left 15 minutes early, earlier than I was supposed to. You do know what time it is when you get in the car. The clock is really, I mean, every, all of us should be taking. We should know the speed limit and not take the time.
Starting point is 00:11:13 That's why I did. Can I, can I go to a follow up question around, around lateness? Yeah, we will allow it. Here, here's the thing. I always want to be early. My family gets annoyed sometimes because, I don't know, we get there five minutes early and that's annoying for them to wait the five minutes for something to start. Oh, my God. I don't understand why. But that is, that's the way it works. But I don't feel like anybody doesn't hold somebody accountable for being late,
Starting point is 00:11:40 no matter what the circumstance. Like if you leave early and you run into bad traffic, you might get there on time. If you leave at the exact time you need to leave and you run into traffic, you're late. And when you show up late, I feel like 100% of people are like, it's your fault. Even if it wasn't your fault, even if an accident happens and it truly really wasn't your fault, I feel like we should have left earlier. We all hold everyone accountable for being late. Is that wrong?
Starting point is 00:12:04 I think that it is wrong that everyone does do that. It is not wrong that it feels like everyone does. And I think maybe that's inside ourselves. It really is because you're like, how dare you do this to me? How dare you be five minutes late for my time? I bring it up because yesterday my son started another sports program. And all the kids were there and the coach was five minutes late. to show up.
Starting point is 00:12:30 Oh, you can't be. The coach can't be late. The coach lives over an hour away. There's construction on the freeway. They make it within five minutes. Every parent was furious for five minutes. Yeah, because you're paying money. Did he go five over?
Starting point is 00:12:47 That I don't know. That's everything. We got to track the coaches. If you show up five minutes late and you're like, I'm so sorry this. Okay. Give me my five minutes on the back end and everything's fine. If you're in charge, it makes a big deal. If you're an employee and you show up five minutes late, that is not good.
Starting point is 00:13:08 That is bad. If you're the pastor at a wedding and you're there. Yeah, but if you're the manager who has to unlock the building for all the other employees who got there. And you show up late, that's straight Bush League. All the apologies don't seem to matter. No, they don't matter. This is a good follow-up question. Perfectly in sync.
Starting point is 00:13:25 Jackson from the website, would you rather take a non-lethal bite by an alligator? or a shark. Okay. Who's got? Feels easy. Who's got more teeth? What's your default quick reaction? My quick reaction is definitely the alligator.
Starting point is 00:13:40 Alligator is my quick response. Because size of alligators versus size of sharks, I mean, I guess I'm seeing a great white here. I'm going great white shark. That's what everyone sees. Okay. Other sharks. But it's non-lethal.
Starting point is 00:13:52 Other sharks. Those hold on. Other sharks. Stop it. Stop it. What about the tiger shark? No. Yeah, that's not a shark.
Starting point is 00:13:59 There is great... They kill people all the time. Yeah. There's the great... Not like a great white. It's a real big fish. Get out of here. There's one shark.
Starting point is 00:14:07 We've... I don't care how connected they are in their animal. It's kingdoms and species. We should have another name. There's one shark. Do you just call it a shark? Yes. A shark.
Starting point is 00:14:17 A great white shark is the shark. Because if we're in the water and I go, oh, dude, there's a shark. That's what you're thinking. 100%. Yeah. You're not like, oh, that's a good brown shark. I could be like, like, I could be, because there's tiny little sharks that do nothing.
Starting point is 00:14:33 But it's a trick, it's a trap. When you say, oh, there's a shark over there. Yes, you should react swiftly and get out of there because there's only one shark. When I, by default, think of a bite from both of those animals. The bite from the shark is like the bite of a sandwich. The meat, it's all coming out. It's all gone. He's swallowing some of my body.
Starting point is 00:14:55 I will say this. I will say this. my vote would change to getting the shark bite if because it's non-lethal okay so let's just say this here's how the bite works the mouth comes and it closes on your body you get to even pick the spot whatever leg belly chest you know you can pick it it clamps down and then releases yes so it does not clamp all the way down it doesn't take the chunk out because pretty much that's how you're going to die this is non-lethal so the teeth go in and then come out that's when you got to pick shark because the cool leftover
Starting point is 00:15:31 Oh, if you had to show a star. If you had to show the pattern of a shark bite looks like. That's the sandwich bite. You know, you got like a look at this chunk. And it's like the alligator's like, what is that? Yeah. Because it's a long, narrow. Like I could get a shark.
Starting point is 00:15:49 I should get a tattoo that looks like I've been bit by a shark. Oh, until that's, I won't, I'll bet someone's done that. I bet you're right. That's a good point. the shape of the scar because you've survived it. The alligator, though, when you think about getting bit by an alligator, you know you're getting spun into oblivion. I'm not counting those.
Starting point is 00:16:07 So I think I'm getting a broken bone. Yeah. I'm getting a dislocated shoulder. The alligator's bite is stronger. It's going to, the PSI or how are we? I doubt it. I doubt it. I'm going, I'm going gator on that one.
Starting point is 00:16:21 No way. Yeah. All right. If the gator's bite was as strong as a shark bite, it would then, it would take the arm off. Who has more? It would take all the meat out. Like if a gator bit my thigh and a shark bit my thigh, wouldn't the higher PSI take the chunk of meat? Is it really PSI before I ask this question? I'm pretty sure. It is. Okay. All right. Bounds per square inch. You're measuring pressure. No, I think it's the gator. And it's the alligator. It's the alligator. Oh,
Starting point is 00:16:48 what? Yeah, see? Now, did you say shark or did you say great white? Because that's the conversation. Well, there's only one shark. You know, I don't know if Jeremy's on board with this. There's only one shark. I did know that, but I did not specify. A great white has a stronger bite. Yeah, exactly. A great white has a stronger bite than an alligator in terms of PSI. Now, if you just say a shark, sure, there's little ones that can nibble on you and you laugh and you take them off and you throw them back in the water.
Starting point is 00:17:11 Is there any way that you would know, like, you'd have the wisdom if someone's like, you're getting bit by an alligator or a crocodile. Which one do you want? Is there any way that we would know which one we bought? No. One of them's got a pointy nose. But they both. So here's how I've always, this is how I genuinely think what the. difference is. I don't think
Starting point is 00:17:29 I ever heard this. Oh, I can't wait for this. I don't know that this is real but just over the course of your life. Just over the course of my life. You have pieced things together and created your own history. Something tells me that one of those two and I'm not sure which one. The the jaw opens just upward. Yeah. And then the other one, both both jaws open. Oh. Like the bottom and the top
Starting point is 00:17:53 move apart. Oh, I see what you're saying. I know. So you think one of them is just like that? Yeah. And the other one is like, yes, exactly. I've never thought of that in my life. Yeah. That can't be true. It's probably not. I don't, like I said, I don't think that.
Starting point is 00:18:04 You don't know which is which. No, of course not. I mean, I would say the stupider one is. So one opens almost like a bear trap or something like that. Yeah. It does. Like the bottom, the bottom lid just stays there. The bottom row of the teeth, whatever mandible or whatever it is.
Starting point is 00:18:19 That's one I'd want to be bit by. For sure. Because I wouldn't get the double crunch. Jeremy, why don't you look that up, verify my. I think I know what he's going to find, but. We can give it a go. Oh, I can't. If this is right, if somehow this is right, I'm so happy.
Starting point is 00:18:32 I don't know how you search for. Does an alligator or a crocodile have an immovable lower jaw? So usually I go, I'm on it. I didn't say I'm on it because I didn't know how to search for that. You just search up differences between alligator and crocodile. Yeah, but I want to. If that is a difference, that would be the number one difference. That's fair.
Starting point is 00:18:50 I don't know, like I know there's saltwater crocodiles. I don't think there's saltwater alligators. That's one thing I know. Alligators are just... Is a crocodile more, like, awesome than an alligator? The saltwater crocodiles are humongous. I think those things are. I know that those are scary.
Starting point is 00:19:06 Also, imagine being in the ocean. Yes, if you saw a shark, you'd be freaked out, right? But you're like, it's a shark in the ocean. This is where you live. If you see a crocodile coming at you in the way in the ocean, we're not talking on the beach. Is that a surfboard? No! That would be so much worse.
Starting point is 00:19:23 Also, if you have never looked up a saltwater, an ocean-dwelling crocodile. They are dinosaurs. Yes. They're humongous. They are not like the rest of their species. Gators, I think, are smaller. They're the megalodon of, you know,
Starting point is 00:19:39 but they exist now. It's like that was about great, great, great, great, great. Gosh, they're huge. They're so big. Are they really that big? Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah, they don't look great.
Starting point is 00:19:50 Are they bigger than a shark? No. Not a real shark. No, if you fought them in a great arena, I think the shark's winning. Well, if there's water. Yes, yes. By the way, it doesn't seem like crocodiles and alligators have immovable lower jaws.
Starting point is 00:20:10 It does say the alligators have a larger upper jaw than the lower jaw. So the alligators have an overbite. Okay. Crocodile teeth interlock. Maybe that's what I was. I could see that. One is going over the teeth. Yeah, the alligator. And one is interlocking, okay.
Starting point is 00:20:28 I just want to know which. You definitely want the one going over. Was there one courageous crocodile that at one point in time was like, that water over there with the salt in it, I'm going to go get in that water. And then it just grew larger. And then the salt filled it and it grew and became a dinosaur. And then the alligators were just like big babies like, I need gentle soft water. Yeah, I've got an overbite.
Starting point is 00:20:53 Isn't the salt water, the softer water? water? No, not an ocean. Really? It's too abracial. It's not like a home soft water. Oh, okay. That's that's kind of what I was thinking. It's too abrasive. But now I remember having both, um, both areas of private areas hurt by ocean water. So it's much rougher in the ocean.
Starting point is 00:21:15 Both areas of private areas is how I would describe it. Yeah. I don't know if I've ever told that story. Oh, no. Did you have chafing issues? I had the, have I never told this story on the spitballers? I don't know. If you have, it's worth here.
Starting point is 00:21:30 Now, were you, Al, was this on a trip with you? Yeah. Okay, so you, you know this experience. This was, this was brutal. One of the worst experiences of my life. Sounds like it. So I went to the ocean on a San Diego trip with Al Borland's family. Wonderful.
Starting point is 00:21:49 We go out in the ocean. We're having a good time. I got new swim trunks. And those swim trunks had an inner lining. Yeah. So the built-in underpants. The built-in underpants. So that's what I wore.
Starting point is 00:21:59 Old school meshy or new school sticks? I think it's new school cheese grader. So what ended up happening was horrific and unspeakable on this podcast. But the walk back, because we were staying, you know, you're staying on the beach in like an Airbnb that's on the beach. Except it's not on the beach. It's a block from the beach. and there's a big walk up the beach. Once I reached the point of no return in one of my private areas,
Starting point is 00:22:33 okay, the walk back was the most brutal, uncomfortable, bent over thing that I just had to do for 2,000 feet. Oh, no. And when I got to the Airbnb, the amount of, um, the amount of orders we had from the local Walgreens for Vaseline.
Starting point is 00:22:54 It was a trip runeer. So, yeah, no. You're out on that. In hindsight, I think the ocean water is much, much harsher than the soft comfy. At least you came out like no infections, right? That is true. That is true. And now I'm all calisstaffolated.
Starting point is 00:23:16 Exfoliated. Okay. I think probably time for a break out. Sounds good. Is this real life? Well, this is the part of the show where we share real news stories. Okay, here's real news from the last segment. Saltwater Crocodiles are the largest living reptiles and grow to 23 feet long.
Starting point is 00:23:50 That is gigantic. I mean, 23 feet long. Think about how tall a basketball hoop is. That's a monster. And then put another basketball hoop on top of it and it's still not tall enough. And then it swims? And then it swims. If there was a secondary question, because this one was like, if you wanted to get bit by either one, but it's non-lethal, so you survive it, you make that choice.
Starting point is 00:24:11 If you told me, which one do you want to go and, like, guarantee your demise? I just want the quickest, like, you'd want the shark, right? I don't know. Like, if you know, this is what will be the end. No, I know what you're saying. I guess the alligator might drown you. The alligator's top speed is 18 miles. per hour in the water.
Starting point is 00:24:34 Alligator or crocodile? The saltwater crock that we're talking about. That's monster. A great white's got to go faster than that. Sure, but a human's top speed, the highest speed ever reached by a swimmer, was five miles per hour. That's our, that's our top. That's our top. That's the limit?
Starting point is 00:24:49 Michael Phelps was like five, those people in the pool are only going five miles an hour? David Holmes. Yeah. I mean, this is why it's like. Is that true? I mean, I think it is. Great White's 35 miles an hour. I'm just saying,
Starting point is 00:25:02 We're not surviving. Yeah, because we're not supposed to be there. That's true. We're not supposed to be in there. The problem is you get to land that crocodile is chasing you down to. There's no way that croc can't catch you on land. Correct. So can I outwalk an Olympic swimmer?
Starting point is 00:25:19 Like if they're swimming and I'm walking, power walking. Yeah, if you gave the hip-shake and I'm just right next to him and we're like, he's at the side of the pool. I would think so. And I'm just walking. I am not jogging. Can I beat him? I think so. I feel like it.
Starting point is 00:25:32 be embarrassing to get run down on land by a crocodile and yet every crocodile runs faster than a human. Every one of them. There would be an amount of shame with it. You'd be like, because it looks like you should be able to get away. Little stubby, stupid legs. I feel like zigzags have to work on a crock. I believe that is completely
Starting point is 00:25:49 old wife's tail. Oh, really? What about climbing a tree? That would work. Crocs cannot climb a tree. Can they stand up on their tail? Yeah. Well, not on the tail. They can climb up a little. I'm so quickly. I was saying they can like, you know, climb up the part of it.
Starting point is 00:26:07 They're just not getting off the ground. All right. We are into. They jump out of the water. Yeah. Using that tail. We are into is this real life where we share real life stories that just don't seem like they should be real. What?
Starting point is 00:26:22 Are you watching a crock jump now? Crocodiles can climb trees. I was just about to post that. Wait, high into the tree canopy. They're climbing full trees. How are they? climbing trees. It makes no sense. I thought you said there were rules to physics, Mike. There are. There are not. Crocodiles can climb into trees. Crocodiles are monsters. We did say that.
Starting point is 00:26:41 I'm staring at a crocodile climbing a chain-linked fence. Oh my gosh. Why can why can they climb? These are monsters. Monsters have superpowers. Wow. Well, they do come from what the Cretaceous? What in the world? I believe Hades. Have you seen? This is the crocodile episode. Have you seen what they do? when they know that a lake or a river that they're in is going to freeze. Have you seen this? I have no idea. All of, there's been some places,
Starting point is 00:27:11 Florida recently, where things have gotten really cold, there's been snow. So there's been some lagoons and areas where the water freezes. And you would imagine, all the crocodiles are going to die if they're under the water, right? Because they breathe air.
Starting point is 00:27:23 Probably go into some hibernation. They go and they poke just the ends of their noses up above the water and it freezes around the, into their nostrils. So you look at the frozen lake and there's just the nostrils all over it. What? And their heart rate slows to four beats a minute. Can you imagine that nap? That is a nap. That is the best nap that anyone has ever experienced in their life. There's got to be a limit to how long they can stay. Not if your heart's down at four BPA. Yes, four beats a minutes. It's like hibernation. Or BPM. PSI.S. I. Um, yeah, four beats per hour. Did you be a
Starting point is 00:28:01 elite. Yeah, every 15 minutes, boom. Yeah, it's crazy. Crockettiles are wild. I think I want one. I don't think you do. I don't think you do. I don't think you don't don't mess with that. Okay. You don't need it. Speaking of Florida, I'll go first because mine's pretty short and sweet. Alligators can fly trees. A Florida woman was arrested because she got pulled over. and the police noticed her her bag her purse of some kind in the car in the car yeah yeah that's probable car and you know like we they put things you like some phrases sometimes on a purse well this
Starting point is 00:28:47 thing said definitely not a bag full of drugs on the purse yeah that's what it said on the bag and i have you can never guess what's inside of this bag guys oh man i'll give you a guess uh was a Drugs? It wasn't fax drugs. Oh my gosh. Was this like an Etsy purse? Somebody like, I don't know. But this person thought, well, I'll be real clever. Even if they pull me over, there's no way they're going to look in this bag that says definitely not a bag full of drugs. That's a little crafty. It's crafty, but it didn't work. No, it didn't work. Not only did it not work, you couldn't possibly expect it to work. Like if you're at, like you can get that bag if you're not putting drugs in it.
Starting point is 00:29:31 Then it's funny. You get pulled over and they're like, let me see that bag. And they open it up. I'm like, I try to tell you, it's definitely not a bag full of drugs. So don't write down on a murder weapon. But if you definitely not the murder weapon. Don't test this weapon for blood. It's like that that's insane.
Starting point is 00:29:49 That is a stupid person. Yeah. I got another stupid person. Okay. And it has to deal also with animals, not quite as great as crocodiles, but a superior animal, a bear. I don't know, man. Pretty deep crock right now.
Starting point is 00:30:06 This article is they told insurers a bear damaged their car, but it was actually a person in a bear costume. Oh, they did it? They did it? Not only did they do it. They've done it several times. They went insurance fraud. They did insurance fraud. It was a group of four people who have been charged.
Starting point is 00:30:31 The alleged scam cost three insurance companies a total of $141,000. This is... You have no idea how right you are. Was it when the crowbar was in the hands of the bear? Here's what is so funny about it. Breaking it in. The way that this... The way that this whole situation came up...
Starting point is 00:30:55 It was clear insurance fraud to try to make six figures worth of money. Right. This was a Royles Royce, an old car, but they had done it to several other cars, which is what flagged them. They did a Mercedes G63. What's going on with the Bears? You know, a Mercedes E350. They only hit the high-end cars. And, you know, these people lived in an area where it was known for bears around there.
Starting point is 00:31:21 And they had video evidence of the bear going in the car and scratching up, tearing up the inside of the car. The video evidence, my friends, has been released. And I want to read you a quote. I need a link. Since the people cannot see this video while listening to this podcast. But this was a quote from the investigators, from the officials. Quote, upon further scrutiny of the video, Enhance.
Starting point is 00:31:50 The investigation determined the bear was actually a person in a bear costume. I have watched the video. it looks like a person crawling around in a bear costume. And what's funny is when you first, first, first watch the video right off the bat, you're like, oh my gosh, there's a bear in that car because, you know, you don't expect. But then when it crawls to the other seats, it crawls into the back seats, it's clearly a person in a bear costume. And they sent this video to the police to approve definitively. And so the police investigated.
Starting point is 00:32:23 They found multiple car insurance fraud. that were done. Did they find the bear costume? They found the bear costume. Oh, come on. You got to get rid of that. Well, they were going to do it again and again. This was their job was tearing up cars in a bear costume.
Starting point is 00:32:37 They actually found it in a bag that said this is definitely not a bear costume. So I got to go to Papa Josh real quick for a question because Josh worked in insurance for a very long time. Could these people have said we had a bear attack and like you have the remains of the interior of the car, but not sent to video. Just your claim, like, a bear did this. Yeah. Like, so they didn't even need to do the video. It was going over and above that really got them in trouble. Overthought it.
Starting point is 00:33:07 Yeah, I'm going to share out that video for you guys. Pretty sure if bears is about to ruin my car. Don't take a video. I just, I have a hunch. I mean, like, a person. There's a lot of different ways. Our limbs are not the same. And you can tell when they were crawling.
Starting point is 00:33:25 Because it looks like a person's limbs and not like a bear. Did you know that this was actually a story in, I believe, mainland China at their zoos? Did you know this? That they actually had. Like people pretending to be. Yes. They had people dressed up in bear costumes pretending to be bears in an exhibit for on the first thing. No.
Starting point is 00:33:46 Yes. I thought you were talking like people coming to the zoo dressed in a bear costume or something. You're telling me that they actually tried to fool the guests of the zoo. zoo by having people in bear costumes? Headline, Chinese zoo denies their bear is a guy in a bear suit. Yes. Oh. So, yeah, it's, I'm going to send you the picture of that too.
Starting point is 00:34:11 Oh, my goodness gracious. And this was a story. I saw this a while back. So there's a little tag team on the Is This Real Life. I know that you can be in a giant rhino and get away with it. Ace Ventura taught me that. Here's the story that I picked out for Is This Real Life. And this was a homegrown story.
Starting point is 00:34:26 This happened in late December. In Arizona, I saw it come across the wire here on our local AZ Central website. So this is, you know, it's always nice when you see it yourself. Yeah, right. Let me read the headline for you. Jason is aghast at this bear. I can't. I'm sorry to distract.
Starting point is 00:34:44 I'm looking at the picture of the bear from the Chinese zoo. It is, it's a person. It's not even wearing a bear suit. It's wearing a bear mask. It's just a person. It's a dude. It's got a little bit of an extension for the head. Oh my gosh.
Starting point is 00:34:58 But otherwise. Yep. Upon further video evidence, I have determined it is not a bear. It is a person in a bear suit. I just love the idea of a zoo like going like, oh crap. That bear died and it was the main attraction. What do we do? What do we do?
Starting point is 00:35:13 All right. Here's the story. Guys, you're going to enjoy this. It's just standing up. Right in our backyard. Right in our backyard. All right. knocking from Phoenix garbage truck leads to woman's rescue.
Starting point is 00:35:26 Oh. A garbage truck driver found a woman stuck in the rear container of his waste management garbage truck early during his morning route in Phoenix. The woman, who was not seriously injured, was found at 4.45 a.m. When the truck was in the area of local area here, she was taken to the hospital, the garbage truck driver had heard loud knocking sounds coming from inside of the container after he made his last. dump. So now the first question I have because it's the most terrifying question, I just assume all these garbage trucks are compressing. It's like Star Wars. Yeah. I don't know. It says, quote, it is unclear how the woman ended up in the garbage truck. The woman did not want to share? She didn't tell them. And then it says later, uh, I'm going to guess she started in a garbage can. That's where I believe this.
Starting point is 00:36:16 I'm in here. Don't worry about it. How'd you get there? My favorite part of the story, though, was when the representative from waste management, the garbage truck company decided to comment. They said, quote, they were unaware of why or how. The woman ended up in the dumpster bed at the company, quote, strongly discourages people from doing so. But they don't forbid it. Right. That's true, Mike. They just discourage it.
Starting point is 00:36:41 They just strongly discourage it. If you're going to do it, you can. What's going on in there? Strongly discouraged. Is there anything cool? That's probably some copper pipes you could sell. Oh my gosh I mean you do see people
Starting point is 00:36:52 You do believe that you're in You got to be in the waist basket or in the can In the can and then get dumped in I mean I see Hence the injuries I do I do Post lunch walks around our
Starting point is 00:37:03 Our building here pretty often And walk by a handful of dumpsters It is a very common occurrence To see a person in that dumpster Oh you frequently And do you wave Pretty much at least twice a week Do you try to ignore them or do you just say hey
Starting point is 00:37:16 I just walk on I'm just walking I don't know them looking for things? There's a people looking for things. But I guess if you're in there at the time that the garbage truck pulls up, if you want to earn yourself. There's a problem. Yeah, I'm just not understanding how that happens.
Starting point is 00:37:31 If you want to earn yourself $100, I want you to do one of your around the building walks in a bear suit one of these days. You can stand. I don't care. You can walk on two feet. Oh, all right. If I don't have to bear crawl. You got to buy the suit.
Starting point is 00:37:45 Okay. All right. Well, I'll go find one. All right. We'll take a break. we'll get into the draft. The Spitballers Draft. All right, today we are drafting the most annoying sounds in the world.
Starting point is 00:38:09 Yeah, the scout, it is in contention. You can draft it. I have the number one pick. I'm going to go pretty vanilla here because it's a super annoying sound and it genuinely like causes people physical discomfort. Yeah. I have to go nails on a chalkboard. Why does it do that?
Starting point is 00:38:26 I don't know. I think it's because we associate it with the, feeling as well of the nails scratching it. Chalkboards have that like really chalky. It was abrasive. It just grosses me out a little bit right now. It was the
Starting point is 00:38:43 first thing I put on my list. And then as I created the rest of my list, it was the last thing on my list simply because I realized that doesn't exist anymore. Like for people our age, nails on a chalkboard was a thing. Because like in classrooms there were chalkboards.
Starting point is 00:38:59 They ain't been a chalkboard in the classroom. Nails on a long, long time. It's just a smooth glide. They're only manufacturing chalkboards for the nails now. Right. Yes. For the freaks that really like it. But yeah, it's been a minute.
Starting point is 00:39:12 I don't think any of them have chalkboards still, right? It's all whiteboards. I think, no, there's chalkboards. Really? Yeah, there's chalkboards. But they all get like somebody rolls like a white erase board in front of them. Right. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:24 Okay. Yeah. All right, Mike, you are on the clock. Most annoying sounds. So. Nails on shockboard very high, and I'm going to go with the sound, which it sucks to even when you bring it up, because the people who create this sound love that you hate it. And it's these freaking turds with their car mufflers and just being the loudest, most obnoxious car that you can possibly be.
Starting point is 00:39:53 Great pick. That's a good pick. I didn't think about that one. And they all, like, I can only imagine the reason you do that is because you are trying to be annoying. So then when I admit that it's annoying, I am simply giving you more power. No, they're trying to be cool. They are trying. I don't think so.
Starting point is 00:40:14 For sure they are. I don't know. They are not trying to annoy other people. They're trying to be cool. They think in their world, in their bubble, that it's like, wow, this is an awesome car. It's so loud. It's so strong. But I'm not even talking about the motor.
Starting point is 00:40:29 Like there are. Yeah, the muffler. Yeah, I can agree that some people are like, my motor is the deepest and the loudest. I am just talking about the insanely loud muffler. There's a, they find other people like them. Yeah. I think they're trying to be cool. There's a bubble of people that are like, whoa, man.
Starting point is 00:40:46 And here's cool. Here's a nice thing. You can make fun of them on this podcast. Right. Because those people aren't listening to this podcast. Okay. Well, if you are. if you are one of those
Starting point is 00:40:56 these people, like we try to be uplifting, positive. But if you are one of those people, you're a bad. You're a bad person. Here's the uplifting part. You're able to become a good person. You're able to become a good person. You can pull over right now, the side of the road.
Starting point is 00:41:11 There's something about it being. Disconnect that muffler. It's an added. With a huge smile on your face knowing you're a good person. The sound is so bad because you've added it on purpose. It's not like, you know, you just didn't have the money to put on the thing that makes the bad sounds. going bad and it's like your brakes are out
Starting point is 00:41:26 and that's annoying but it's like, whoa, why are you taking all my picks over here, man? All car related. Jason, two picks for you. All right. So mine is going to be the opposite of yours, right? Mike, you were saying. A quiet car.
Starting point is 00:41:41 No, you were saying that you didn't like this in part because the people are wanting it. Okay, yes. This one I actually have empathy for. I feel bad for them because they very much don't want it. but it does not change the fact that a baby crying on a plane is unacceptable. Yeah. Because baby's crying period is unacceptable.
Starting point is 00:42:02 Well, but on a plane you're stuck. You're in a fuselage for four hours. And it's just like this is going to wreck the day when there is a baby crying on the, but nothing's more annoying than that. The baby crying, and I just had it down as crying baby anywhere, you can have both empathy for that person and hate. hate the sound rage or in your case rage because it's just not it's not something you can
Starting point is 00:42:28 like have a conversation through it if you had a restaurant and a baby's crying and I'm trying to talk to you about crocodiles or something you know we can't have a serious crocodile discussion because the baby's crying that's horrible all right um so I know the next one I really really want but I don't think either of you are going to take it it's probably it is the worst of the worst but I'm gonna play the game and hope it comes back to me
Starting point is 00:42:50 so instead I'm going to take something that I have heard I will say I promise I've heard this more than you in your life but by you I mean everyone everyone listening everyone in this room that's a bold proclamation a smoke detector beep it's on my list because you have heard it more than anyone
Starting point is 00:43:10 why more well I've gone bigger houses I've gone years without changing it you are just hold on demented you let it just is it out is it this a ladder yes it's a ladder situation it's a couple years like you it's a laziness situation there was one time where I was renting a house
Starting point is 00:43:30 and it was almost like it was like the two years I was there it's not my house and so I don't want to change it but it was two you're willing to suffer because it's not yours well and in between it you can still forget and then every time it's like chirp and you're like oh I forgot about it you don't have to replace it you can just take the battery out I think I ended up just knocking it down eventually. See, that's the way to go.
Starting point is 00:43:53 I've had parts of my life where, like, this upstairs, if there's a fire up here, we're in big trouble because there's about five of the smoke detectors that are just, oh, no, they're just detached. Oh, okay. I thought there were multiples beeping at the same time. No, no, no. I'm saying, if you take them down, they do not function. I'm saying in the middle of the night, I'm not going down to get the battery.
Starting point is 00:44:15 I'm going to identify the problem. I'm going to fix it. And now a problem has been solved. I had a smoke detector. I don't know how this is possible. I don't know what's wrong with me, but it clearly is. I had a smoke detector in our master bedroom with a chirp for a whole year.
Starting point is 00:44:34 How is that possible? Dude, I don't know. I say it out loud and I don't know. It's not a goof. That happened. We just lived through it. In your bedroom? We live different lives.
Starting point is 00:44:45 In the master bedroom. I will say, I believe that all smoke detectors. are designed with a photo sensor. So it knows when it's night time. Right. And that's the only time it's allowed to warn you of the battery because I can tell you honest truth. I've changed 15 to 20 batteries.
Starting point is 00:45:02 I've never done it when daylight. It has been there. It has always been, and it always happens to be like a lot when our kids were little and it's in their room. And I'm hauling a freaking ladder into the room while I'm hoping the kids stays asleep. And I'm climbing up this in pitch black,
Starting point is 00:45:17 hoping the kids stays asleep. asleep to change this thing? You just got to let them learn how to live through it. The problem is that some of those smoke detectors... It's like being in a McDonald's. Some of the smoke detectors you can't just take you out. I learned this at a house because all our smoke detectors in the entire house were hardwired together. But they required all of them
Starting point is 00:45:34 to have battery backups because the hardwire could go down. Therefore, you can't pull it off without setting off all the other alarms. What? Yeah, my... Because I tried to disconnect one and the whole house went off in the middle of the night. What? Yeah. Yeah, my current house, I dealt with problem and it caused me to actually change the battery.
Starting point is 00:45:50 Yeah. I was like, I gotta fix this thing. This is unlivable. And I can live through a lot. He shut the power down to the house and went back to bed. Mike, you are back on the clock. Jason took the crying baby in the smoke detector shirt. Very good picks.
Starting point is 00:46:02 Mike, you have the custom exhaust on the car. And you're back on the clock. All right. We're going to go, we're going to go with chewing. Oh, yeah. Chewing is. I did think you might take this pit. Chewing is annoying.
Starting point is 00:46:19 It's disgusting. it is the it is the worst sound that that can be made. Yeah, chewing with your mouth open. Yeah, it's awful. What is it so bad? This morning.
Starting point is 00:46:34 Why is it so bad? This morning. What you're doing is you're using these little ivory pieces in your mouth to break food down with a mixture of saliva to swallow. That's why it's great. You can hear the saliva sticking and releasing from surfaces. What does it bother you? Yeah, like nails on a chalkboard is like, okay, that reminds you of doing it.
Starting point is 00:46:55 I can see that that makes sense. But like chewing, it doesn't remind me of eating, which I'd be like, oh, that sounds. Yeah, it sounds great. I love eating. The act of chewing is awesome. Yeah, I like to chew my food. Just chew respectably. Yeah, this morning on the drive to school.
Starting point is 00:47:10 My eldest son was chewing gum, but he was smacking it. Oh, man. Oh, no, no. I was like, those lips, if you have gum, those lips are shut. I don't want to hear you chew your gum. No, that's a great pick. Okay, my next pick, I'm going to go with the car alarm. The car alarm that is going off and nobody seems to figure out it's their car and no one can stop it.
Starting point is 00:47:37 And it just seems like there should be some way for someone else to stop it. I feel like we're... And you always have to check if it's yours. Are we not evolving past the car alarm phase of our society? I think we are. I think now so many cars You can check on your app where they are You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:47:54 Like it's just kind of got to What you think they install it just so you can find your car? No, I'm just saying if you have that Do you really need a car alarm? I thought the car alarm was to stop someone from breaking in I guess I see it as stop someone from stealing your car I guess they could break in and steal something out of your car Right.
Starting point is 00:48:12 You could stop them with that, yeah. But no one's going to stop them. No, no. Well, because the default is somebody left their alarm on. That's the default is you're like, oh, who's going to turn that off? Not is there somebody stealing it? Also, here's the biggest problem with the car alarms. 1,280 out of 1,289 are false.
Starting point is 00:48:36 There's no one breaking in. There's no one stealing your car. It's idiot with their loud car muffler setting up car alarm. Yeah, it's boy who cries wolf. Yeah, it's boy who cries wolf. It's like every time that you hear a car alarm, it's like, Someone's got to go push a button. You almost need the alarm to be like,
Starting point is 00:48:50 it's really someone this time? Right. Or just know when it's not someone and then don't cry wolf. This is why I think we're just evolving past it. I think now cars, you can't, newer cars you can't steal, right,
Starting point is 00:49:04 as easily. It's much more difficult to Nick Cage. Oh, he can steal it in 60 seconds. Yeah, under. Nails on a chalkboard car alarm. My third pick here,
Starting point is 00:49:14 I'm going to come back with snoring. I'm going to come back with snoring because, Yeah. When it happens and look, I'm only going to barely throw my wife under the bus here. My wife has. Barely is all it takes to kill you. It is. It is.
Starting point is 00:49:30 It's all. Yeah. A little bit under the bus is all the way under the bus, isn't it? Yeah. She is not a, like Jason, you are a regular snore. When we, long ago before you. If I don't have my CPAP, I will be chopping wood. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:45 And Mike and I and you, we shared a, hotel room a couple times and it was like, oh man. You're a, it's, there's something to it. Like, you're at peace and you're causing,
Starting point is 00:49:54 like you're, like, oh, yeah, there is something funny about that. You're at complete peace while the other people are around you going, oh, please make it stop. And so my wife,
Starting point is 00:50:01 I would say she slightly snores once every few months and all it takes is a nut, right? But I can't sleep during a snore. It's impossible. So normally I'll do the like, you're snoring. You're snoring.
Starting point is 00:50:17 And then she'll, go, and then that's it. Yeah, it's funny. I don't think I've ever snored. Snor it. Well, yeah, I mean, I've never heard myself snoring. Yeah. I spent years snoring, you know, in bed and having that just had to be dealt with. Then I get a CPAP.
Starting point is 00:50:33 You've snored other places, too. Well, sure, but I'm just saying once I got, once I got my CPAP, I don't snore anymore. And now if the wife's- She can't sleep without you're snoring? If the wife snores, I am just a gas. Oh, you're like offended? Is it louder than... How loud is your CPAP machine?
Starting point is 00:50:52 I'm not familiar. Oh, it's just a nice blowing air. Nice of whoosh. Oh, that's like what you want to go to sleep. They used to be loud, right? Maybe, maybe. I think it's a nice sound, honestly. So it's the one wearing it?
Starting point is 00:51:05 No, no, no. Like, she said it too. Okay. It's a white noise now. It's like a little white noise machine. If you have a white noise machine, is there an option on there for CPAP? Yeah. Or snoring?
Starting point is 00:51:15 Ooh. That's, no, it is terrible. All right. Back to Mike. All right. We're going to go. We're going to. Having a hard time over there. It is. It is.
Starting point is 00:51:29 Because this isn't a sound you hear all the time. It's just we understand how terrible it is because it sounds like death. It sounds like a creature may be suffering and needs to be put out of its misery. But it's beginner violin. Oh, beginner. Not frequent. Yeah, that's really saying. I'm not saying that I hear it all the time, but when you do hear it, it is, that's one of those where one of your eyes just, it shuts.
Starting point is 00:52:01 You can't stop it. Your head starts tilting. Your eyebrows go up. If they play too long, full aneurysm. Inside your body is like, I need to get out. Something really bad is happening. Would more people play violin if it wasn't for the beginner violin intimidation? Like the family, it's like the drums, right?
Starting point is 00:52:19 sometimes people don't buy drum kit. They're like, why don't you play? They're really loud. Why don't you play an electric guitar with these headphones on the amplifier? I wonder if that keeps people from like letting their kids play. It could. But it's also now it's old fashioned. It's not cheap.
Starting point is 00:52:36 I just say, there's much cheaper instruments you can get to. Go play. Go learn in the backyard. I also feel like very wrongly and for no reason. But it also feels like one of those instruments that is cut in half. Like it's a, it's a. That's a girl instrument. Like violins are for girls.
Starting point is 00:52:51 And so half the people already can't play. Like the flute? Yeah. Yeah, I would say the, I mean, at least growing up, it just felt like that. I don't know why. It's stupid. I would love to play a violin. It wasn't exclusive, but in our marching band, there was definitely like all the floutists
Starting point is 00:53:08 were girls. Then the clarinets, a little bit more split. Then you get up the saxophone. Like, you know. You just made me so hungry for flautas. is a nice chicken or beef flouts us let's go that sounds delicious
Starting point is 00:53:24 that was my takeaway what was you talking about some sour cream some fresh roasted clarinuts all right Jason you have two picks left okay I got two picks left I got they're roasted
Starting point is 00:53:40 I got we put clear nuts we put all right moving on all right So my pick that I wanted the most because it is, it drives me insane. What's a clarinet player called? Do they have a different, because a flute is, I'm a flamist. A clarin.
Starting point is 00:53:57 Are you a clarin, nutter? A clarinutist. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Is there a word for it? A clarinetist. Clarinetist. That seems a little bit more obvious. That makes sense.
Starting point is 00:54:12 Yeah. All right. Well, then why are you a flutist? That I don't understand. I don't know why you're a floutist. Oh, delicious. But I also don't know why you're a pianist. Fair.
Starting point is 00:54:22 Piano. Pianoist. Why isn't it a pianist? Why is it a pianist? I think we just don't, we're not good at pronouncing that one. Jason, you are back on the clock, for goodness sakes, pick something. Okay, all right. Well, the pick that I wanted the most came back because it drives me insane.
Starting point is 00:54:44 And I can't do anything about it. And there's, I can't put it away. I can't forget about it. I can't not notice it and just move on. Like a smoke detector beep. Yeah, I can move on for me. Yeah, apparently. But this, this drives me crazy.
Starting point is 00:54:58 And it's, some people do it. Some people do it this way. It's teeth on a fork. When they bite the fork when they eat. That little clip sound? That clip and scratch. Interesting. It's just like nails on a chalkboard to me.
Starting point is 00:55:14 The teeth scratching along the fork. Obviously, if you got plastic, whatever, I don't hear it. It's fine. But if you've got silverware, if your teeth are biting the fork and you're dragging, oh, I can't not notice it because it's visceral. No. Well, I mean, I've, like, once I bit. Like an accidental bite of a metal fork?
Starting point is 00:55:33 Yes. That's a bad experience. It is a terrible experience. But I don't do the additional scrape it out. People, you don't need to scrape the fork with your teeth. That's how you get all the flavor. No, sir. That's how you get all the silver.
Starting point is 00:55:45 Yeah, it's part of the experience. I like a real Illuminity Luminumini pasta. Yeah, you don't need to eat like that. Please be aware of it. And the problem is, yeah, just learn to eat right. It's a visceral.
Starting point is 00:56:02 I'm not out there judging you. I'm not out there looking for it. If it happens near me, my body knows it. And I just like... You ever turn to the neighboring table and go, did you just bite your fork? I've never said anything about it ever. To you bite your fork at me, good sir.
Starting point is 00:56:19 To anyone. Thankfully, no one in my family does or else I, you know, they'd be out. They'd be out of family. What's your final pick? Crime baby, smoke detector, chirp, teeth on a fork. My final pick is the, is the PTSD that comes from an alarm clock. And it can be any alarm clock, whether it's the old school one by the bed or whether it's the classic iPhone. So even though you're a morning person.
Starting point is 00:56:47 I am a morning, but I'd see, my alarm clock is just a gentle, vibrating. How often do you change your alarm sound? I don't have an alarm sound. Like I, we don't have. No, but like the one you're talking about though. When you used to. For people who have an alarm? Never.
Starting point is 00:57:04 Never had an alarm sound? No, no, no. I said I never changed it. When I grew up, I had like the alarm clock that was doing the classic. Yeah, and then once I got an alarm clock. iPhone for, you know, a decade or whatever, it was the, whatever their default was. I never mixed it up. I never mixed it up. You never go a song. No. No, I think a song would have been much better. Yeah. But I haven't had an alarm clock sound in a long time now. So, thankfully, I got that out of my life.
Starting point is 00:57:33 For me, it's no matter how peaceful a sound is when you, like, you're selecting you. Like, I had a, one of those sunlight alarms. And it was you get, you have a couple of sounds you can pick from. And one of them's birds, real pleasant birds. And it sounds nice to sleep with. Yeah. When you first hear it, you're like, it's great. The first couple times it wakes you up. But then eventually, even that peaceful sound, you're like, this is, this thing is the worst. It's waking you up. Yes. Yeah. And you're like, you're going to. You're going to bed with a bird gun now. You're waking up looking. I'm going to get you. You're not waking me up tomorrow. These birds wake me up every day. Mike, you have custom exhaust chewing in beginner violin. You're finishing it up with what?
Starting point is 00:58:14 So I don't think they do this as much in the new school. But Josh can probably tell me if they are really doing it or not. But low health in a video game. Interesting. When you have low health in a video game and the thing comes in, dee-de-e-e-e-de-e-de-e-de-e. Very annoying sound. That sounds old school.
Starting point is 00:58:37 Yeah, did you never play? No. N-E-S games? Like you never played a Zelda game? I never played a Zelda game, no. What? I never, that was the one franchise. I never played a single Zelda game.
Starting point is 00:58:49 Okay. Well, that one specifically is the one I'm thinking of. As soon as you're down to like half a heart, the alarm goes on. It never stops. It never stops until you get more life, which is, it's a weird. It's a weird thing. We have even just newer or they're trying to figure out how to make video games. But it's just weird thing.
Starting point is 00:59:06 We got to make sure you know that your health is low. You're in danger. And then at the same time, you're freaking me out. You're like, because you won't stop. Makes it harder. It's making it even worse. I am aware that I'm about to die. I want to get my life back.
Starting point is 00:59:18 It's a high priority right now. My final pick is an easy one. Yeah, the sonic drowning. Oh, man. It's just pure panic. My final pick is going to be microphone feedback. Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:59:33 That's good stuff. When someone messes up with the sound, the sound engineer messes up. Jeremy's back there. He screws something up. And the sound. Or the performer points the microphone at. The monitor. The sound engineers fall no matter what the performer does.
Starting point is 00:59:48 Ah, the performer's awesome. Engineer. Yeah, I agree with Andy. Got to be on top of that. But no, yeah, they point the microphone at the amplifier. You should have planned for me to point the mic at the speaker. If you've ever been around one where they really couldn't get it under control, that is pretty intense. So I had a lot of final picks that were really close, like the flyer mosquito that buzzes your ear.
Starting point is 01:00:10 I've got that on my list. Off key whistling. So if someone's walking around, but they're not a good whistler. Yeah. If you're good whistler, welcome in. Mike, you are welcome to whistle around me anytime you want. And for Papa Josh, a final one that I had on my list. Dogs barking at night.
Starting point is 01:00:25 I thought you were just going to say Papa Josh. Also Papa Josh. Because that should be on all of our lists around here. I had dogs licking themselves. Oh, man. When you can hear the lick. Oh, it's so bad. It is the worst.
Starting point is 01:00:41 It's very nasty. I'm surprised we didn't take like a cough. Coughs are so annoying when you've got that person. Like you're in a movie theater or any venue. And you got the coffer, the one who just can't stop coughing. Yeah, but I don't find the actual sound of a cough to be. Yeah, it's more of the constant coffer. I have a dentist drill.
Starting point is 01:01:03 And for my boy, this is a like, this is nails on a chalkboard for him. Styrofoam rubbing together. Yeah, one of my kids has that too. cannot handle it. That's not a good sound. Like nobody, maybe some people have the phobia and it's worse, but I think everybody would agree.
Starting point is 01:01:19 That's not a great sense. So you know, like the, the material that gives like the fake 3D effect, so based off of where you look at, but so it's these tiny little rivets or whatever, and if you scratch it, it makes a very distinct sound. That's one of my kids.
Starting point is 01:01:36 He will, he will like attack you like a spider monkey if you don't stop. He just, like he can't, like he can't. control it. He turns in just a monster that has to get away from the sound. A buzzing light bulb. Oh, yeah. Yeah, that's terrible. Awful. Not as often anymore. Light bulbs
Starting point is 01:01:52 should not make sound. They make light. It's keep it straight. You're not here to make sound. You're not a sound bulb. There's a restaurant. Light bulb. There's a restaurant near here that we all like like a little Hawaiian barbecue place. Oh, man. I totally forgot about that thing. Years. Years. It has been happening.
Starting point is 01:02:11 It's probably because they learn that some dude is like, hey, I don't care about my smoke detectors. I guess we can leave the light. Oh, man, that thing drives me nuts. I don't even want to go inside there and they don't door dash. Come on, people. We got to go see if it's still there. Oh, I'm sure it is. I had the fork on a plate.
Starting point is 01:02:29 Oh, very similar. On the plate. What did we learn today? I learned that crocodiles can climb trees. That blew my mind. They do seem like. like an apex predator when you look at all the things that they can do. You also learn that they can move both sides of their jaw at the same time.
Starting point is 01:02:48 I'm not sure I learned that. That will go away quickly. The crocodile's speed. It can chase you down no matter where you're out. That's what I learned today. I learned Jason can make up 15 minutes of a drive of a 30-minute drive somehow. Andy has a really passionate love of floutas. They're so good.
Starting point is 01:03:07 To be fair, they're delicious. Goodbye, everybody. Goodbye. Thanks for listening to the Spitballers podcast. To see what other nonsense the guys are up to, check out spitballerspod.com.
