Yes. Just guess. What the fuck is this?

Price is Right without the... Yeah. That's right. Wouldn't the Price is Right be better? So I have nothing to read off of other than Dave's face. Okay. Dave's face is looking pretty way back. It's going to be pretty far back.

I'm going to go with 1930. That's great. That's great. And that is what Dave Dave's face to me is screaming. 1872 Dave. No, no, it's 1900. OK, we're close. So now we don't know. OK, no, I don't think. OK. All right.

January 5th, 1900, the Hollis time from Hollis, New Hampshire. Close to where this cat is from. Oh yeah, I used to live there. New Hampshire, represent, yeah. Okay. I used to live there. And only now as an adult back in America

do I know how random a place New Hampshire is to be. Yeah, right? But when I was there, I thought it was great. Here's a pitch. Can we drop the new? Hampshire do. I mean, we've been around. There's a series.

We're not really, right? Do we need a separator? Yeah, back then everything was new everything. Yeah, back then. I get it. Back then they're like, Holly fuck, New York! Now it's like, yeah, it's Hampshire. I'll fight this and I'll fight you,. You want to drop the new from New Hampshire? Yeah I'm ready to go ham and York New York to it's just you are now. What about Jersey?

Keep it Jersey Jersey kind of already is nobody calls it old Jersey. That's what I want to call it old Jersey Yeah, well, then how you gonna differentiate it differentiate it from your homeland in England? Nobody's making, look, if someone's that lost, then we don't need them to survive. All right. Hampshire, nah, the new makes it. David's right. You can go Jersey without the new Jersey. Hampshire is... No, Hampshire sounds weird without anything else.

Hampshire's weird, yeah. Yeah, it's weird. It doesn't roll off the top. I think the people listening are, yeah, it's weird. Doesn't roll off. I think the people listening are, yeah, we're off topic, but the people listening are on my side. Go ahead, Dave.

What should we call Maine, Ayn? Like, what do you wanna do? How far do you wanna take this? We call it Mayness. You wanna call it Ishigan? Please start reading. Please start reading. Uh, Hollis time is, there's no headline here.

Miss Phoebe Hunt, known as Grandma Hunt, was 100 years old Wednesday. That's old for them. Yeah. For 1900, 100 years old. Yeah. Yeah, that's, yeah, that's- That's 200 in today's years.

Yeah. She was born in Wyndham on January 3rd, 1800. She is the only centenarian in this section, if not in the state. Yeah, well, yeah. Yeah, that's a blessing. There's like eight people in New Hampshire at that point. So right. And one of them was 100 is crazy. She had to be very ready to die.

Well, I think at this at this point, you got to wonder if she's a witch. Yeah, especially from the Northeast, like 100, 100 years now. Like, I wonder if like, you know, if you're born in in if you were born in 1924 and you live till now, you'd be like, the world is different. But if you're born in 1800 till 1900, you're probably like, I was pretty much the same. Yeah. You're like, oh, there's kind of a car. Yeah. We had horses and wheels and fire. Now there's better holes to poop in. That's it. That's the biggest thing.

The poop holes are better and the whiskey is better. Whiskey is worse. And now up to 50% of your kids live. Crazy. Crazy. We're going back. The event brought much joy to herself as well as to relatives and friends. She kept open house in a raid in her best cap and dress. She greeted all who came in the same cordial manner, which has made her so well beloved about here and which many society people might well imitate.

Okay. She's lived strictly a temperate life, never smoking as do some old time ladies. Always cheerful, she's fond of standing erect before one and saying, ain't I straight? Which indeed she is. And I do that and that's a crime. I mean, isn't that like time travel? I know English is my third language, but I have no idea what that meant. Like what does-

I know, I've never heard of it in my life. Ain't I straight? Ain't I straight? What does it mean? She's talking about posture. She's like, wow, look at me. Is it? Yeah, cause she's old.

So she's like, her spine should be curving and she should look like scoliosis under skin. But instead she's just like ain't I straight Again in a 1900s, even if you're perfectly healthy, you probably look like you're scoliosis Yeah, everyone has scoliosis Babies, yeah regular spine people like look at you John. Yeah ill She made a visit to Pelham last fall riding in a wagon both ways. Many of our pastors have reason to thank her for the socks.

She has knit them. So life well lived. I mean, that's a nice story to start out with. Yeah, it is very small town paper. Boring. She was an entrepreneur. She made her own socks. She had a car. She was still yeah, well she was an entrepreneur. She made her own socks. She had a car, she was still going around. She went to Pelham, I wonder how far that is.

On a wagon, it's gotta be a ways. That is quite big. And also back then, you know, you go on a wagon ride to Pelham at 100 years old, you probably would die. So she, you know, she was adventurous is what I'm saying. Yeah, and straight and straight, very straight, not curved. Yep. She's a straight old alive thing. That's very hot warming, actually to live to 100 in America. Now much less. Now it's shocking. Well, I remember seeing like something where there's some city that has the most

like in Japan, where it's like the most hundred year olds. Yeah. They have like they have a parade for you. So you like people are like, I'm going to do it. And then they get a parade. And everyone's like, way to go. Yeah. I think it's they're called they're called like Blue Zones where people live to be a hundred I can't believe New Hampshire was

No, no, no way No, now I there are probably a couple of blue zones in America But they have to be like Hawaii or they have to be like separated from oh, yeah from the mainland Yeah, they can not Attached to this tumor. I mean, when you're in Hawaii, you're like, oh, air's clean. How about that? Yeah.

And the thing in the Blue Zone thing, when you talk to the old people, a lot of them are just eating sweet potatoes. They're just like, potatoes! You're just like, wow. The secret with potatoes. Yeah, wow. The secret with potatoes. Yeah, always. British soldiers at play.

Nice. There is one thing, and not a new thing, to be noticed about the British soldiers in South Africa which bodes ill for the Boers. It is that Tommy Atkins takes his luck in the field with the same matter of fact ease, which in other times has made the British soldier seem unbeatable by any save of his own blood and bone. What? I think Tommy Atkins is some kind of athlete, right?

That's what I would... Well, he's the Atkins diet. Yeah. This is maybe... Wait, that's him? Yeah. It's also weird for you Americans at 1900s to praise the British. They were unbeatable, but America beat them. It was tough because we loved their colonialism, but also we're happy to be away from them. But we were like...

You hated the tea, yeah. Yeah. But we were back on board at this point. We liked them tea. Yeah. Yeah, but we we were back. We were back on board at this point We liked him again, right? Because at some point we're both like hey, we both like killing We both like yeah, will they won't they? Yeah. Yeah It's you know, I mean it's something you can't understand but Killing non-white people it it's it's a really bombing. It's addictive. Yeah killing non-white people, it's a really bombing experience. It's addictive. It is!

It is! I know. It's addictive. I read the 1776 book with George, and man, they were fighting, man. The English and the, so this is 100 years earlier. They were, like, when the, I don't need to tell you guys this. You guys are well-educated Americans

who deal with history every single week. But when the US declared independence from the UK, Great Britain sent everybody to invade New York. The book describes New York Harbor as the 100 ship invasion, it was just all British ships. Everyone was shitting their pants. Because the British were like, you guys want to be independent? Okay, well, fuck, we're sending everybody. They sent everyone. That's so great they lost.

Yeah, and they still lost. It was crazy. It was crazy to fight a superpower and win. America fighting that was insane. But anyway, now they're friends. Now we lose wars all the time. To ourselves. We're losing a war inside of ourselves. Pretty handily too. Yeah, we're fighting wars that are just intangible cultural wars and we're losing. Yeah. It's good. His generals may walk into ambush and get him jolly well peppered with Mauser

lead pencil. He's going to get jolly well peppered with a mouser lead pencil. Jolly well peppered with mouser lead pencil. So shot. That's what right. That's what that is. Jolly well peppered with mouser. That's but he keeps his appetite in spirits and indulges in his sports. Whether it is in a lady's point of this article, this article. It's about about it's like a happy piece about a column. It's a it's a fluff piece for the British about how they play sports.

It's like Stephen Miller on the cover of Vanity Fair. Like what makes you tick? Sorry, Dave Sporting. What was the headline? Was that headline? The headline was British soldiers at play. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Right. Whether it is in Lady Smith, Kimberly or Mif King, the Britishers chief concern when he is not rushing out to fight is that when off duty, he may indulge in the same pastimes, which would fill his chunky 12 stone body with joy

on the green of his home village or in the fields of his squire. Holy shit. I guess chunkyunky was like positive in. I don't know. I think it sounds like he was just like skin and sausages. What, Gareth, what's 12 stone? Oh, fuck. Well, it's 14 pounds of stone. So, wow. Yeah, it's it's he's a big boy. Yeah. And he's indulging. So what he likes to do is fight and then he's like Peter Dinklage but fat and big.

He's just pounding wine. What's that in kilograms? Oh boy, we can't do it. Converting stone. Okay, I'm sorry. What are you doing? Come on, baby. Come on over.

Pounds, baby, pounds. I still can't figure it out. You can't? No, I can't figure out the... pounds, baby pounds. I still can't figure you can't no I can't forget all the yeah, that's gotta be tough. There's no reason to look it's all going away We're gonna stop existing soon. So you don't need to keep knowing it here. We learn it just in time to Don't learn Fahrenheit, yeah The sons of most other races lie behind siege walls with straightened faces, tense nerves and beating hearts while they expect new strife. Wait, are we in a what are we in right now? An article? So now he's talking about yes, in the in the in the fighting with the British,

the other side are very tense and nervous, hiding behind walls in the war where the British play sports. Right. But you're believing British beggar, uh, highs H E H I E S. Is that a word? I don't know. Never heard of that. Uh, highs himself to a comfortable corner behind the battlements where he may cut cards or shake the dice pot. That's not a sport. His sport is cheating. His sport is degenerate gambling.

His sport is rolling dice in a corner. That's awesome. That's really funny. And also I think they were talking about, if I, the article, they say that this is British station in Africa, I think. Yeah. Yeah. Okay article they say that this is British station in Africa. Yeah. Yeah. Okay.

So who are they fighting in Africa? Well, I think... The Boers. Yeah. It's the Boer War. So it's the... Yeah, you're fighting people who want to live there. Oh, fuck.

Okay. It's ridiculous. It's such a funny... Even war is such an unfair term for what that is. Right. Fighting a war. We the cause of having everything and them wanting to exist. Jolly on then.

Here's some dice. Yeah. And then you like see him out like playing dice. And he's like, hello. And they're like, Jesus fucking Christ. Oblivious assholes. Yeah. Between scraps, he plays polo golf golf and football, just as he does at home. While shells are dropped around him and Irish, Scotch or English, he thinks he is the luckiest soul on earth to be what he is and as he is.

This is crazy. Yeah, what a puff. Yeah, it is. It's amazing. It's an amazing. Yeah, they play golf and what was that? The other thing? Polo. Polo. Polo and now football. Yeah. Wow. The big three. They had a full on, you know, it was like they had like an English country club. Yeah. In the war zone. And they're also actively, you know, killing. Yeah, killing, probably like nearing genocide yeah and they're just

like I say fancy a bit of a pony golf do you yeah to play golf in a war zone is very crazy shells dropping around you're fucking trying to drive this thing nine iron into the hazard as the horses the horse is spooked again. I'm reason good Lord Well, I wonder why what was the do you guys know the context of like America's attitude towards that particular war in the bar war or the pro They were oh they were Dutch. Dutch. So the bars were Dutch. Oh. So I take it all back.

Oh, so the English and the Dutch are fighting over Africa. Yeah, South Africa, yeah. That's so classic. That's cool. Classic Europe. Just classic white, yeah. It's just the best. Yeah, classic Europe, white Europe.

What makes you think this land that is a Daz at all is yours? It's ours! No. No. No. No. No. Europe, white Europe. What makes you think this land that isn't as tall as yours? It's ours. No. No. No. I'm sure people were screaming about that, that I didn't know that.

But again, you'll find that I don't read about war. It is now so in South Africa, it, we're still in the same story. It was so in Spain when waiting behind their entrenchments for Napoleon to come and eat them, the British soldiers chased their foxes sent for from home, ran foot races, wrestled and played their games. It was so when they followed Mulborough to meet the great Louis, taking along with them their spurring gamecocks and fighting dogs. That's not, I feel that's not a sportsman.

Well, these British really liked their games, right? They were like, yeah, we're going to we're going to bring our fucking games. Like a cock. It's written like that Rolling Stone article about Bert Kreischer that got Van Wilder made. Cuckoo. Napoleon. Yeah, I mean, they're obviously referring to when the French attacked England. Were they cannibals though?

Sure. Pauline wasn't eating people. Are you saying sure? Yeah, why not? Okay. It feels like pretty ambivalent. I mean, most people aren't cannibals that you accuse of being cannibals, so why not accuse the French?

Trump will be doing that in no time. Eating people. No, it's saying other people are eating them. And while eating people though. Yeah, right. Yeah, right. While he'll eat people. Yeah, so the British are fun loving warmongers.

Yeah, good attitudes about it. It was so when Charles watched Cromwell and the King killer's iron sides chased the royalists, only then both sides by turns fought and played their games and loved their sports betweets their bloody battles. Do you think the superior officers were like yelling at them the way people yell at people using phones now? It's like stop holding your game cock and fucking stand to post.

We got people coming in. Cutting cards. Yeah. Still a war guys. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, seriously. Sounds like this article actually makes, if I was the Dutch reading this, I'd be like, let's just attack these fucks.

Yeah, we're overestimating their power. Yeah. They're all playing games all the time. They're playing games. Playing polo. Yeah. War sounds okay. Yeah, I'm. War sounds OK. Yeah, sounds like a nice camp.

Yeah, exactly. The member hastened to obey. Former member Reed had a great moral influence over the members, and whether willingly or unwillingly they were want to obey his requests. One afternoon when the house lacked a quorum, one of its messengers was dispatched to hunt up an emcee at Harbys, a famous restaurant in town. Quote, the speaker would like to have you come up to the house

as there is no quorum, said the messenger to the member who was enjoying a broiled lobster. You tell the speaker to go to thunder, he said. To go to finish my lobster. This guy. I don't know, but I hate government, but love this guy. Bring it back. Go to thunder. Bring it back. That needs to be a saying that we say he can eat lobster. Yeah, but that's a good New England man right there. It is. Yeah.

Is he lobster and he's telling the whatever to go fuck himself. Yeah. Yeah. He's not they need a core. Things never change. Yeah. Yeah. That'd be Ted Kennedy in like 50 years, like, I'm having a blowjob. Can't you see I'm in the middle of having my cock sucked? I mean, famously, you guys know that like lobsters were like, like, trash.

Yeah, they still are to me. I think it's like eating a rat. Like why would you eat it? It's gross. I would eat rat. You You know cockroach. You would eat rat. Well, it's just an excuse to eat butter, right? That's the whole thing with the last. Yes, it is. It's very much like the oyster. We've talked about the oyster before where it's like anything where they're like doused it so you don't taste it. But lobster is still gross. Okay. I mean, I think the thing with lobster is that you the amount of think the thing with lobster is that

the amount of meat you get per lobster is so, you know, you kill this thing and it's like, you get to eat like a tail. That's- Yeah. Yeah. And it's a lot of fucking work. Yeah. It's to crack it open.

And also by the way, lobsters are biologically, lobsters are biologically immortal. So if we didn't eat them for their tail, they wouldn't live forever. Is that true? Yeah. We should not be eating them. Well, we'll fucking kill them.

They could live forever, but we kill them. That's why, you have to love us. they can take over the earth. Humans, it is amazing because if we were ever to actually like dip into that philosophically, we would be like, this is, look, we believe in balance, in balance but these if they live forever we should not eat them and instead we have them in tanks like help help that one looks juicy yeah it's awful awful

well I don't eat them so I know what you know well you should is that you delicious I like the smaller version. I like the crawfish, but crawfish is even worse. It's like you kill like one million of them to have like a bite. And he put the way they like eat the brain, suck the brain. I'm like, that's where I'm like, not in grow up. That's crazy. It's crazy. It's crazy that you're anti the thing with more meat and no brain sucking and the tiny little version where you got to eat brains.

You're like, now that I like some weirdos yard with eating off a newspaper. Yes. So the speaker would like to have you come up to the house as there is no quorum," said the messenger to the member, who was enjoying his broiled lobster. You tell the speaker to go to Thunder. I'm going to finish my lobster. Very well, sir, said the messenger. I will do so. And he left the room hurriedly.

But as soon as his back was turned, the belligerent member rushed down by the back stairs through a side door into a cab and was up at the house long before the arrival of the messenger. What the fuck just happened? He chickened out. He talked tough and then he got scared and then he went to work. He told the messenger to tell his boss

to go fuck himself, I'm eating lobster. And then he was like, actually I'm a pussy. And then he jumped in the cab. And got there before the message. He was probably eating with someone who was like, that's pretty important, I should go. It's the 1900s equivalent of unsending a message. Yeah. Yep, yep.

He unsent the message and he went. And you just see, you just see that, that's what I love on WhatsApp where it's like someone deleted it, you're like that's even worse What the fuck are you doing over there? Yeah, he unscathed me. Yeah He got there before his own fuck you got to his boss Well, yeah, it must have been so satisfying when the messenger came in and was like he told me to go to thunder He was eating lobster. He's like boy. What are you talking about? I've been here for 10 minutes. Yeah

christ Butter shining on his double chin. Sound like me? Do you want to know the topics that are hot right now on newspapers.com? Sure. Is this OK? I just noticed it. Number one is bread recipes

And then so you're looking you're looking through newspapers for old bread recipes No people I think I could see someone going like I want to make a vintage bread I I could definitely see that in silver like Yeah, I could definitely see that some hipsters going like I want to make bread the way they made it in a no way when yellow fever was it yeah, oh Good loaf when scarlet fever was a thing. I want to taste what that was anyone want to scurvy roll Also Thomas Edison The invasion 1939 invasion of Poland Bonnie and Clyde thein Murders, and Humphrey Bogart.

That's what's hot. Ed Gein Murders. Yeah. Those are good. Also Silver Lake. Nipple belts and whatnot. Yeah. Was it a nipple belt?

He made a nipple belt, yeah. He also made lampshades from skin. I love how long you guys have been doing this, that you guys know all this. It's getting sad. Look. You know how sad. Look, people- And when you know how sad it is when I know things, that's how we know the show's gone on too long. Like if I know things, it's probably time to call it.

Like if I'm saying stuff like, wasn't that right when the canoe was invented? And they're like, yeah, it was. And I'm like, I remember that. It's like, what are we doing anymore? The whole ruse of this is knowing nothing Look Ed Gein used the whole body which is what like native Americans did with the buffalo See, I'm so maybe he is was more advanced that we give him credit for he was many things

But he was also environmentally conscious. Yeah One fingered gloves Wow, that is mind-bending. I don't know my head around that one, right? Is it is that a mitten? Is it a mitten? I know because it is a mitten too It's a well, it's like I could see them having the great thumb debate back then Does the thought is the thumb included in the one-finger glove or is the thumb separate? That's what we're gonna find out. It's a glove with a penis.

Yeah, that's true. The penal glove. Penal glove. I've come up with a one-fingered glove. No. Yeah. Oh, it fits here too. I'm not straight.

Gloves had long been made in very great variety, but a novel thing. What an awful, like if I was reopening this paper I'd be like, I'm not reading this. You like you would scroll your Bread recipes You know what it is like it's like whenever you do open a recipe online and the first fucking page of it is just some weird dive into this weirdos world or they're like, I've always really enjoyed egg nod, but the holiday season is so much money. You're just like,

where's the fucking recipe? Like, that's what this is. The intro is too long. The intro is too long. The history of gloves is pretty fast. Do you know why they do that? I found out. You want to kill them? Because Google made some sort of thing that your recipes would only get bumped up if you included a story or some sort of narrative

before you got to the recipe. It's crazy. So they made all of the people sharing recipes who wanted to get hits create, it's terrible. Everybody hates it. Absolutely awful. That's so stupid. Yeah. And also on a kind of separate point like I also hate how we we all talk about the algorithm

Like it's a mystery. It's like some human Wrote it. So just tell us what the fuck you want. Honestly. Yeah Yeah, stop with the mystery and we have a whole sub industry ofry of people who are hired to help you figure it out. Some guy made it. He just tell us what it is. Oh, that fucking guy. Oh, that guy. The guy who is like, hehehehe. That guy was like,

I think recipes need a short story at the start. So we're gonna, like, just fucking tell us that, yeah. It's so musky. Just be like, and then there'll be a short story at the beginning of every recipe. Like, uh, okay. Now people need to show the end of what they're putting up first. They're like, Al, are you okay? Do you think people will buy fewer musk flavored treats in Australia now?

Musk? Oh. What, like musky, the scent musk. It's a it's a flavor down there. Is it? I don't. Yeah, like candy and stuff. I don't like so. Am I thinking of something else? Must I think of something else?

Musk is a scent. I know. I don't know about candy. I've never heard. But maybe if you if you go to Australia, I think you'll be unfortunately surprised at how many people outside of America are fucking mega Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah. No musk a musk stick a musk is a Man, you know a lot of Australian. I know heard of a must never Well, there's a whole bit right here that's what impregnated grimes. Yeah

that's what impregnated Grimes. Yeah. Alright gloves have long been made in very great variety. struggle gloves have often been made. Why just tell me what's happening gloves have always had quite a ride, but a novel thing in this line is a one-fingered glove, or perhaps it might be called a one-fingered mitten, in which the thumb and first finger are provided for precisely as they would any glove with a covering for each while the other three fingers are enclosed in a mitten-like part. It's actually very lobster-y. It's a very lobster clawed design.

So you get a free finger, a thumb, and then you lump in the three. Ronnie is doing actually a very impressive job. There's really good dexterity on that. It's Star Trek-y. This is ninja turtle gloves. Yeah, that is ninja, that's what the, yeah. That is what it looks like. Yeah, that is Ninja. That's what they. Yeah, that is what. Yeah. And this. No, this is dumb.

I agree. That is it. Pick a lane. Are you a lover of because what we're saying is just do a glove, right? Well, I'm saying if you want to do some dexterity, some put some articulation into your glove, you wouldn't do thumb, first finger and then three three fingers because that's uncomfortable. You would do thumb, two fingers, and then another. Oh, you're pitching hoof.

Okay. Yeah, but even that is. Yeah, it's not great, but I get that a little more. Yeah, the Spock Lock. Yeah, this is not. I say pick a line. Well, look, obviously it didn't last because I've never heard of this fucking style of glove or mittens. This I say pick a light. Well, look, obviously didn't last because

I've never heard of this fucking style of glove or mittens. I guess it's a gliton. Maybe it's time to bring it back. No, that's not what anyone's saying. It's like the Japanese like invented like the boot that had a separate toe. I think it's called like a Toby thing where they were the first people to like put a slit in the boot, the army boot so that the toe was separated. And then that allowed them to basically conquer

half the world because they figured out- Wait, what just happened? That's amazing. Because it was more comfortable for them to wear? No, because they were able to grip slippery ground more in Southeast Asia. And so they were able to grip slippery ground more in Southeast Asia. And so they just had a grip advantage and they just defeated half of Asia.

These are the kind of facts that Joe Rogan loves. And I think- So if you separate the toe, you conquer the world. You separate the mitten and you get nothing. Yeah. You get like, you get arthritis, you know what I mean? Cause you gotta do that the whole time and then you. Yeah, it hurts.

You get, yeah, finger pain. Good idea of wrong body part and it's a difference between. That's what the American was doing. He was like, what happened with this? We're gonna do, we're gonna conquer the world with our free-fingered mittens. It's like Shark Tank. They're like, we see your margins.

They're not good. Dude, Shark Tank is hilarious. If this was the first Shark Tank, they'll be really funny. Oh, it'd be so great. Welcome to Glitten. It runs out right away. Mittens are warmer, but a driver must wear gloves or have at least one finger free

to enable him to handle the reins. Oh, so this is before a car. So you gotta have... So you're holding the reins. Yeah, have a glove. We have it. Have a glove. Backward step. We don't need it. The one-fingered glove is made for the special convenience.

With the thumb and forefinger free, he can handle all the lines all right while his hands are. He can do way more. For the rest of them, protected as they would be by mittens. You guys just don't get it. Yeah, it's just obviously very stupid. Yeah. Okay. One-finger gloves are also bought by shipping clerks and bookkeepers and others around markets. Yeah, cause you gotta go through the book. Again, you cannot pitch me on the great advantage of having one fingered free when we have five. Well, maybe you don't want these three fingers

to be lonely. Super weird pitch. You know what I mean? I take it back, I was being stupid. I said you should go one, two fingers and two fingers. I'm assuming your hand is open all the time, but if your hand is closed all the time, then the one, one, three actually,

if you do finger, if you do finger and ask. It's for pointing. It's for pointing. Finger guns, yeah. Yeah, finger guns. I don't hate the double. I still like this. Yeah.

I don't think that's as useful as the, yeah, cause the finger pointing. What if you're a guy who does this all the time? Yeah, I don't think that's as useful as the... Yeah, because the finger pointing. What if you're a guy who does this all the time? Yeah, that's like literally the target is like the shooter audience. Where he's like, unfortunately the mitten does not provide me my separating point. And sir, let me show you the glitten.

Now this is great. Where more or less of the business must be attended to outdoors, a man can't very well handle a pencil with mittens on his hands, but he can swing one all right with one finger gloves. You gotta pick a lane. You gotta pick a lane. Are you writing or are you, you know what I mean?

You take it off. It's actually very similar. You know the glove technology now where they're like, you can use your phone with the glove. They don't work either. You know what I mean? It's gloves. It's just gloves. Pick a lane. Yeah, it's gloves. We don't need to reinvent the glove. No, and the way they think that trying to like text with a glove on is very maddening now. They're like, yeah, go ahead. No, you go ahead. I have nothing.

Sorry. No, I was just going to add, Dave. Is this like an ad or is it like an article? No, this is just a story Okay, it's probably an ad. No, it's really not. It's just it's just a guy because the next story is about a Rough riders bicycle a cycle designed to go over rough country has been tried on the Horse Guards Parade. For the purposes of the trial, the parade was made into rough country with slabs of timber and miniature heaps of brick. The machine is said to have cleared these with ease and its rider to have cleared them with comfort. If this be so, the public will soon be a better customer for the invention than the war office.

Half success is better in such a contrivance than none at all. The cycle is exceptionally sensitive to obstruction, and anything that tends to brace its nerves against ordinary difficulties of that sort will be a great boon. Dirt bike. It was like reading. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.

I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.

I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.

I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. like this is how you do this story. Hey, they made a, they made a bike that can go over a rough road. We got a rock like bricks and yeah, it rides over bricks. Yeah. This might have been the, this might have been like the Tesla of the day. People were like, Whoa, this bike can go over rocks.

Cause if you tried to take it up a rocket wouldn't move. Yeah. Yeah. But this one could, I guess, was it like a penny farthing one with the big front and the small bag? I don't know, but I will say that I do believe the Boer War was the first time that people used bicycles in the war. That's hilarious. Which war? So that's in the Boer War.

The one we're just talking about. The bicycle. That didn't last very long, seems did it the bike and war yeah I don't know, but I feel like I think move past that pretty I mean imagining people Bikes for war yeah is good time. It was a good like two months of that tech Yeah, before she came well imagine like trying to bat like I think that would like the horse does all the work for you Don't need to like focus on what the horse is the bike I would imagine when there was incoming fire, you would just be like, oh shit

Yeah, it just resulted a lot of british people on there like yeah Harder to shoot out from under you Harder to shoot on the bicycle as well because you got a bad. Yeah Maybe I love how like like, you know how like like 90% of our society and technology is from military technology. It's pretty cool. Yeah, it would be pretty wild if like bicycles were invented for war. I didn't even pay attention.

Yeah, yeah. It's just something like Q had pitched to James Bond, like his next item, James. It's called a war bike. Oh, and that's how like, what's it called, like X Games BMX biking came from that. Yeah, first time's a hat. Yeah, you know those, what do you call the dressage? You know dressage. Yeah, Dave is a big dressage guy.

Yeah, the horses are- The little dancing horses. Yeah, and then someone was asking what that was, like how does that relate to war? Cause all the Olympic games are like war games, right? You know, like Javelin is like throwing the spear and then, you know, and Marathon was like scouts, scouting and then running back to tell the general,

the information. The Dressage. Yeah, so Dressage was. Was it? Yeah, it was. It was after you killed someone on your horse, you train your horse to stomp on them so they would die. Oh, that's way fucking darker than what I imagined.

Yeah, yeah. So dressage was like, if you injure your opponent, the horse will come and finish the job by like stomping on his head. Yeah, man. I got really mixed feelings about that, but I'm pretty much in. And I think we should bring it back where if you're performing dressage,

you should have like someone you don't like under your horse. Yeah. When you're in competition, it should be allowed to stomp that. Well, I'm sure that's what they're visualizing. The competitors, they're like, wow, this guy has a sport ever become less exciting from one move. You take out the horse murdering dressage is like, what are we watching?

Yeah, this horse is doing the tango. Yeah, that's really insane. That's awesome. This is just a blurb. Since the dawn of history, those nations which have flourished most have cultivated some form of athletics. But everybody does.

All fucking all countries have athletic. Everyone. It's everybody has that. There's nobody that's the New York Post. Why is this so pro sports? And a man is a man when he's doing it. Period. Good. That's just love sports.

Yeah. The next article These guys just love spoilers. Yeah. The next article is about kids using litter boxes. Yeah. The cocaine habit is spreading death and desolation throughout this country. It would seem about time that the law making process, both state and national, should make some move to prevent the spread of the nefarious

traffic in the drug." Wow, 1900s? I thought they were all down with cocaine. They're coming out of it, huh? I think they're now starting to realize, like, hey, man, this is getting kind of weird. Really? In 1900s? Yeah.

Wow, I thought that was prime time cocaine was like sugar. They just put some coke in your, you know, whatever. Just doing bumps off of lobsters. Yeah. Yeah, I thought that, man, 1900s, some guy was like, hey, listen, this is a problem. Great run though. Like, I mean, it really takes so much for us as a society

to be like, everyone's getting a little crazy. Everyone at 5 a.m. is like, they're kind of geeking out a little bit. Like, they're getting annoying. Like, just at 5 a.m. is like, they're kinda geeking out a little bit. They're getting annoying. Just at a saloon with some guy like, they're also telling you about the time that I drank all that ale out of a barrel, but the guy didn't even know.

Yeah, I ever tell you about that time. You're like, Jesus Christ. Energy in this saloon's weird. Where did they, did you guys know where they, cocaine wasn't coming from Mexico back then, right? I think it was. It was? Oh, okay.

Okay, all the way to the Northeast, wow. Yeah, I think so. Yeah, you couldn't get anything out. Well, because it was a pharmaceutical, so the pharmaceutical companies would have been the ones buying it and pushing it. Handing your pharmacist the prescription for cocaine? So doctor listen on Friday I have it's called a party. Well yeah you want to

have a good time? Yeah. I'm gonna write you eight milligrams, we're calling this an eight ball, eight milligrams of chach. And I'm going to Vegas also the next week. Here's what I do. If this chach is too much and they don't have it, get low grade booger sugar. It's the same thing. Do you think those guys who were thinking like, hey, we should just produce this in the US?

Was there ever a US made cocaine? I mean, I've had it and it's pretty much baking soda. It's like somehow it doesn't make you chatty but your dick still shrinks. This is all downside? Well, some guy, and this guy who was writing about was probably in the minority, right? He was like, hey, cocaine might be bad for us.

I was like, shut up, shut the fuck up. Shut the fuck up, Chuck. Fuck this guy. What are you doing, Larry? Or the pharmacist has to explain to you, like, has anyone explained to you how to use cocaine? Alright, you're going to want to, if you're at a bar, go to the bathroom, put it on the toilet seat. Can I put some in my gums?

Yeah, you want to do it. It's called a gummer. That's a good idea. Oh, okay. Absolutely. Can I put some in a cigarette? Yeah, you can actually, Yeah, you can actually snow cap it we call it go for it Okay, it's best. Can I have a look looking glass and you put it on your looking glass? Yeah Can I mix it with a downer? You're gonna want to if you want to try to go to bed about five six in the morning You're gonna want to take a little Xanax. Let me write you a little prescription for that. Hey, how great is our society by the by?

Now we do this with fentanyl and oxy Let me write you a little prescription for that. Hey, how great is our society, by the way? This is awesome. Yeah. Now we do this with fentanyl and oxy. Anywho, a citizens of Eldred, Pennsylvania has started and carries on a nitroglycerin and dynamite factory. Sorry, a citizen S. So a lady, a citizen S. Check that. a citizen S, so a lady, a citizen S, has started and carries on a nitroglycerin and dynamite factory.

A miss of Rochester owns and operates a butcher shop. Two women of Passaic, New Jersey have just been arrested for turning an illicit distillery. And yet, there are some men mean and prejudiced enough to deny the advantages of female higher education. Wow, what a weird turn of the article. It became a pro female education article. I mean, is he saying that ladies can get it done?

It's gonna go to a recipe any second. that ladies can get it done? It's gonna go to a recipe any second. This guy is pro-suffrage. She was like, women should be in school. Look, they made illicit nitroglycerin and explosives. So clearly they can handle the workload. Yeah, and they're doing it without cocaine. But yeah, that is very, very progressive for 1900 to be like, let's educate women. It was

like, I told you we shouldn't have let them wear pants. Listen to what's happening now. Now they want schools. Then they're going to stop fucking us. It's also amazing that they got arrested for it because you figure in the 1900s, nobody was arresting anyone for anything. I mean, it's so hard. And these dudes were, they got arrested for making explosives. Like, that's such a specific, you know? Like someone had to like, find out and then they had to alert someone who cared.

Yeah, it had to be, it has to be egregious for them to be. Like, even murder, they'd be like, stop doing that. Yeah, they were like, either handle it yourself or. Yeah. So, man, these these women, I wonder if it's good for them. I guess. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Judas, the betrayer, the decoy steer of the Chicago stockyards and his work. One of the sites of the great cattle yards in Chicago is an old white ox named Judas. An ox may rise to eminence by his cunning and wisdom, as well as a man, and Judas has risen. This is such a weird, this is like a Disney plot. He came to the yards a good many years ago,

and while he was yet a frisky steer, and he was immediately purchased by one of the great packing houses and driven from the train to a distant yard. The life of most animals at the cattle yards is very short, a week at most. A few days after the arrival of Judas, the herd of cattle which occupied the cattle yards. It's very short, a week at most. A few days after the arrival of Judas, the herd of cattle which occupied the pen with him

was selected for killing. Selected. Selected. Congratulations. Boys, it's time. I hope you had a good week. The way to the packing house led down a long alley, way at alleyway with high fences on each side, then up a narrow chute and into the building. The way to the packing house led down a long alley way

at alleyway with high fences on each side, then up a narrow chute and into the building. And for some reason, the cattle seem to know what is coming for they always object to being driven up the chute. Well, they smell the, they smell the death. That would be the thing. Animals don't run towards death. So that would be the thing is that like, it smells like death.

So they, they had this amazing cunning where they're like, don't go towards death so that would be the thing as to like, it's supposed to be like that. So they had this amazing cunning where they're like, don't go towards death. Well they probably hear the screams inside. The screams of the other cows. Well that's probably not great. Yes. Yeah. I also, I know I don't preempt this story,

I don't know how it's gonna end but like, considering how religious everybody was back then, why would you name something Judas? Yeah, it's throwing me off a little bit. Yeah. I think it's gonna be a betrayal is coming up. Yeah, but yeah, it's gotta be. Judas was no exception. He plunged madly about among the herd and the cattleman had more trouble with him than any other. And now there's a little illustration of Judas in action and it's basically just a steer walking down an area near a building.

But you gotta love the illustrations. I know, they were like saying to the artist, like, look, we don't have time, but he was supposed to be like really upset. I don't know what to fucking tell you, dude. At last, however, he seemed to realize that sooner or later he must go, and he made a virtue of a necessity, trotted quietly up the chute, and the other cattle followed after him. Thus he ran until he had just reached the door

of the packing house. Then he turned and galloped down a side passage and escaped while the other cattle went onward into the building. So he found a... Okay, so I just want to say like as a... A heartwarming story. I'm not a guy... Yeah, this is a heartwarming story.

I'm not a guy who kills... One cow lived. But if you're killing cows, would you not have a door for one to run out? What do you mean? Would you not have an escape door? Yeah, obviously. Yeah, you've got to have. Makes sense escape door? Obviously, you gotta have it. If they want it bad enough.

The escape door is for the breeding. That's the one you select to breed the next batch. Because this guy is the strongest. Yeah, this guy is the smartest and strongest. Yeah. Genus had been so very clever that the good-natured cattlemen let him go for that day. Okay, they're killing hundreds of the good-natured cattlemen let him go for that day. Okay, they're killing hundreds of the good natured cattlemen. Yeah. What a bunch of sweethearts.

They're being nice. Yeah, so sweet. For geniuses to be appreciated in steer as well as a man. The next day, however, they drove him up again with another herd, and this time he made not the slightest objection, but trotted forward quietly with the other steer having a confident leader. They behaved admirably. OK, so this is probably the end like Charlotte's Web, I guess.

This is I mean, honestly, like the fact that there was one feel good moment and they're like, and the next day, Judas was ground. OK, awesome. What the fuck? Just as Judas reached the door of the building, he dodged again. So suddenly that the men couldn't turn him and escaped as he had done before. All right. The herd behind him went creating into the killing room. Jesus Christ. We know what's just highlight Judas. Stop telling us that every other one was dead within 30 seconds 80 others went on what they called a shock floor

This is like it's like the movie the the killing field where that lady wakes up in the kill field But you just got again Since then Judas has been a regular employee of the cattle yards every day Yeah, those so we now have him shepherd his friends That's why they're calling him Judas every day He leads up a herd of cattle and every day he dodges just at the door of the building So he's leading his fellow cows to their death. Wow, so Judas is a fuck a piece of shit. Yeah, what a piece of shit That's awful to their death. Wow. So Judas is a piece of shit. Yeah. What a piece of shit.

That's awful. Christ. That's awful when, you know, desperate times people do. Call that is this. We've heard of this. We don't even need to cite the nightmarish people who take that role. But yeah, you see, it's fine. He is saying I mean, I'm still here, aren't I? Trust me. I'm doing fine. Awesome.

He is saving. I'm still here. Aren't I? He has saved the cattlemen no end of trouble and delay with a riotous herd since he began his service He has grown fat and sleek on the good living in the yard Judas the cow is now like eight cows sizes and they're like Judas what's going on? He's like Hey fellas Let me show you the paradise just follow me over this way through this alleyway and ignore the blood and the screams it's just screams of joy follow me a little further oh you, you're going to love what's behind these doors. It's blood of, blood of joy too. Are you so excited you're going to squirt some out of you? You boys are about to have the time of your life.

Oh man. Just like get some handfuls of more grass. So highly are his services regarded that the cattlemen provide him with a white blanket on cold days to keep him comfortable. This is fucking insane. I'm sorry, boy, it's time to put on my smock. I mean, he's like Cruella de Vil. He's like, I have a coat of Dalmatian.

Judas, what's going on? Don't worry about it. He's got like gold rings. Is that chinchilla coat? You have a pip cane? Follow me, fellas. Let me show you how to dig this cool cats. Judas what's going on with you? Judas took a human wife. Oh you fucker you got blood on my

chinchilla coat. You're gonna be murdered extra bad. I mean you're gonna go extra paradise today. By the way, I've introduced y'all to Shelly. We're engaged. And thus he is living to a green old age, but he bears the disrespectful name of Judas, the betrayer. I see, he was named after the fact. I thought, I was like, why would you call this cow before them? Yeah. That's a real nature nurture if you name him, June, become a real betrayer. That is fucking nuts.

This is this is a little section called News and Notes for Women. It's gonna be awesome. Oh, yeah. Keep those legs together, girls. No one wants to sniff the clam. Get what? New jewel boxes. Treasure making is a huge turn off.

Treasure boxes for the odds and ends that get lost so easily if scattered about the dressing table are circular in form of substantial Russian leather and fitted with a glass topped cover. Though this circle of glass, one can see what is in the box without unscrewing the lid, which is an advantage for the time pressed modern butterfly. That's the news for women. I guess that was the page that the husband would be like, you can read this. Yes. Here's your section. Read about your little box. Throw it out like dirty money. Here you go, Gladys. Now shut up for eight minutes and read that, would you? There's some shit in this about your knickknackack bucks. Good news! Now you can finally see through it without unscrewing it, you idiot.

One woman's pleasant occupation. Raising mockingbirds is furnishing a southern girl with an interesting occupation and good income. Her brothers catch the young birds in the nest before they learn to fly and convey them to the cages where, as they grow, they are taught nearly everything in the way of a song or whistle that a mockingbird can acquire, and that is a great deal. Let me just say. Not for the mockingbird. Well, the mockingbird is the worst bird. There's no worst bird on earth.

The mockingbird is a hellish nightmare. They never shut the fuck up. They are just constantly screaming other bird noises. They're a terrible bird and they should all be caged like this. They're terrible birds. Were they the ones that featured in that Looney Tunes cartoon where there was two black birds who were being total dicks? I think they're crows, I'm not sure.

I think they're crows, yeah. Okay, all right. No, the mockingbird literally, the mockingbird literally is a mockingbird. It just hears another bird and then does their sound. That's awesome. But the problem is a lot of times they like do it in the middle of the night

because that's when they do their mating shit and they wake you up. Eddie Murphy of birds. Yeah, they can do they can do anyone if they listen to it for five minutes, they can do anybody mimic it. Yeah, I love it. Yeah. In the middle of the night to do another bird's mating call to like try to fuck other birds. That's all.

Is that why they're doing it that's so great fuck the fuck boy of birds yeah the fucking bird just like a woman like oh shit I think there's a cardinal up there hey it's like catfishing it's oh yeah birds you're not a cardinal I'm not but I'm really not a cardinal. I'm not, but I really know how to fuck. How are you? Oh, no, they could go. They could just keep it out. It'd be like, I am a cardinal with a cardinal. That's what they do at night. Yeah.

Come out of the shadows. I shouldn't. Now lift up your feathers or whatever. However we do this. However we do this show hole. After a course of instruction the birds are rented for $50 a season to the visitors who winter at the hotels and cottages The birds furnish pleasant entertainment for invalids who spend a large part of their time indoors and will pay a price for the companionship The of these faithful creatures. That is wild Wow, they were like the first like Spotify or something. Yeah, that's wild.

Yeah, seriously. And 50 bucks was a lot of money, man. Yeah, yeah. In 19, it's a lot of money now. Yeah. Like 1900s, 50 bucks was like, you could buy a house or something. Yeah, invalid. Shit, we wanna do one more real quick, Dave?

One last one, yeah. Okay. A new, this is also in the lady' section. A new veil, recommended especially for driving, has a transparent eye shield underneath, which is said to- Walk me through the old driving veil. Just the sheet. What innovation is it to have a veil you can see? Good news, ladies.

You've all been whining about how important vision was while operating a motor vehicle. Well those days are over. Seeing is believing. Yeah, a transparent eye shield underneath which it is said to protect the eyes from the dust. It has becoming qualities too without which a veil must not seek favor no matter how useful it may be as a screen.

So it it. It's amazing that it's for dust. That's like it's just so weird. What about goggles? People like goggles. Yeah. Hey, girls, how about some driving goggles? A veil. Yeah. But why? So men are just driving around without the dust really throws me for a loop in this.

Yeah, your face is getting dusty. Yeah. Sure. But like, I mean, these these want they weren't driving Ferraris, you know? Yeah, that's that is very true. Like, well, well, I mean, you're talking about dirt roads. So I just think there's dust everywhere. I mean, but there was dust everywhere outside the roads, too. You know, true. Yeah. If you it would be worse walking while cars.

Yeah, no, that's true. Yeah. Yeah. So it's just and our solution is veil only the women. Yeah. Here you go, girls. Cover those stupid eyes. When I when I when I think 1900s, I do think dusty though. I do too. Yeah. No, I remember one thing I remember about like, I don't even know, I don't remember

what year the Dust Bowl was, but the one thing that always sticks with me is that if you had any plates or anything, everything had to be turned upside down before you used it. That, and I'm like, I just can't wait to get back to it. Yeah, we're coming back. There was a big dust arm in Dallas last week. It's gonna be fucking great. Like interstellar. Bada bada bop.

There we go, perfect ending. Ronnie, thank you for joining us. No problem. Learned so much. I learned so much. Thanks so much for having me on. I love these, I think you guys are really educating everyone on how much it sucks
